CENSOF GET HEADSTART ON EINVOICE FROM OTHER LISTED PEERS

 Blog https://targetinvest88.blogspot.com



Malaysia had given an extension of 6 month for the 1st phase of e-invoice implementation to all the business that fall in the category of annual revenue turnover which is more than RM 100 million.

While the extension seems to be a dampener for the e-invoice share market hype, I believe that the fundamental of the e-invoice company will not change and such a drop in share price could be a good opportunity to invest in.

There are many companies involve in e-invoice, however the golden lining lies on the accreditation of the service provider by the government. As of current, there are still many companies pending on test and trial with the e-invoice system, however, there are a list of companies which are accredited for e-invoice.

CENSOF is worth a good mention as it is one the listed company in KLSE that had been accredited for the e-invoice system earlier than other of its listed peers (ADB, IFCAMSC, PANDA, YGL) which are still pending on test and trial.

To recap, Censof already have e-invoicing solution and service running in Singapore and some other SEA countries. 


According to the MDEC update on accredited e-invoicing firm, Censof and it's related subsidiary is accredited.




Technically looking, Censof is now trading at the mid term support line



I am invested in CENSOF for the exposure of e-invoice for the long run and I believe CENSOF can benefit from the MyDigital effort further in the future.

IS CENSOF WORTH YOUR HOLDING FOR THE NEXT 3 YEARS? READ THIS BEFORE DECIDING

Blog https://targetinvest88.blogspot.com



I am sure that you are aware that I am invested in CENSOF for quite some time (More than 1 year).
From the start when the price is around RM 0.22, I am invested into CENSOF and continue to be invested by adding more shares into my portfolio.

You can refer to my sharing of CENSOF here.







The main question is here. Currently, CENSOF is trading at RM 0.30, is this the time to take profit? Can I stay invested into CENSOF longer? What are the business prospect outlook for CENSOF?

By now, most of the technical trader had exited CENSOF. However, there will still be a new batch of trader who will be entering CENSOF for the upward ride.

I will be sharing you my view on CENSOF for the next 3 years and also why this share can be worth to hold for dividend as well.

Malaysia government will be rolling out digital government services, and a lot of it will require transfer of services and storage from physical into digital. 

And CENSOF will be one of the main integration partners in all this transfer.

We will be referring to storage of E-invoices, Digital ID, E-passport, and even your house purchasing e-SPA.


This will make CENSOF very good in having GOVERNMENT services and also can enjoy commercial side of business (E invoice). With the current position of net cash and growing strong business model, CENSOF can be a future good dividend company.



For technical view



CENSOF already completed a series of downtrend. The current up trend will be supported with 
1. Government digitalization effort
2. Commercial e-invoice and ERP system


I am still invested in CENSOF, and will keep invested into CENSOF for dividend play for the future.

E-invoice candidate, who is the best deal now?

Blog https://targetinvest88.blogspot.com


Malaysia is launching on e-invoice test run on the month of May 2024, while the 1st batch of compulsory participating company with annual revenue above rm 100 million will go live on August 2024.

So while the trend is going to be picked up soon, let me show you some of the listed company that are involved in e-invoice/ pos system / erp system.


Here is 4 commonly known listed player in KLSE
1. ADB - 0276
2. CENSOF - 5195
3. IFCAMSC - 0023
4. PANDA - 0290

ADB and PANDA is the 2 companies that went IPO within the past 12 months period.


1. ADB

ADB annual revenue is around RM 40 million, with net profit at rm 12 to RM 13 million region
Market capitalization for ADB is RM 522 million with share price at 95 cents region





2. CENSOF





Censof got 2 types of customers. Government and commercial. On the commercial side of business, Censof software sales is around RM 25 million (Since e-invoice is only for commercial business)

The profit for the commercial customer is around RM 7 million annually on average.


3. IFCAMSC





IFCAMSC got the higher revenue compared to all the other, averaging RM 75 million for it's software services. However, it lacks on net profit margin, with the latest 4 quarter net profit at just RM 2.6 million. IFCAMSC can go further if they embark on internal operating cost restructuring.

Market cap is RM 200 million at the current share price.


4. PANDA





Panda annual revenue is around RM 23 million, with net profit at RM 4.3 million range. The market cap for PANDA is now at RM 208 million. The share price has seen a good run forward in the midst of implementation of e-invoice.


TARGET INVEST OPINION

In my opinion, CENSOF and PANDA commercial customer revenue base is very comparable, which is sitting at the range of RM 25 million. However, looking at the valuation, PANDA is currently valued at RM 200 million while CENSOF is just RM 140 million. That is not including the government side of business profit that CENSOF is bringing in to the shareholder.

Should CENSOF trade towards RM 200 million market cap valuation, CENSOF share price will be trading at RM 0.36 per share.

Current share price (RM 0.25) of CENSOF is 30% below valuation for peer to peer comparison on commercial SME customer base. Adding in government revenue and profit will bring CENSOF value more than RM 300 million.


What do you think of the 4 selections? Which one is undervalue?

WHY I AM INVESTED INTO CENSOF

Blog https://targetinvest88.blogspot.com



As you can see, I am definitely invested in the e-invoice ecosystem. While there are many players in this industry, some are public listed and some are unlisted entity.

While I am in invested in almost all of the public listed company in KLSE which offer e-invoicing / ERP system / POS system, I found a stronger liking to Censof due to several reason

1. Strong relationship with the Malaysia government. Censof is providing software solution service to critical government services in Malaysia.

2. Established player in the POS / ERP ecosystem, with various software catering for different industry from F&B, Manufacturing and construction.

3. Have established pool of customer connected into PEPPOL framework in Singapore, Hong Kong

4. Strong cash flow and giving dividend for past 2 years

5. Net cash company

The ERP research and development is developing very fast, especially with the emergence of Artificial Intelligence.

Soon, ERP system will be equipped with AI to provide insight, projection and probably solution to business owner, which will further put deeper valuation to software provider company.

With such solution running on SaaS (Software as a Service) on cloud internet, and the requirement of the Malaysia government to mandate e-invoice as a compulsory implementation to all businesses by 2025, subscription and renewal fee will be a solid cash flow.



Censof already break out from long term down trend. New trend is back up with e-invoice factor to support stronger fundamental.

While it will take some time to see revenue coming in, however, I think the current share price is very good for long term investor looking for both capital gain and dividend yield in the future.

Malaysia effort to make e-invoice a compulsory for all business by the 2026 will spearhead the growth of POS and ERP system. ERP/POS system provider with revenue model based on SaaS will be able to enjoy a high subscription rate, hence better profit in the coming days.

One of the more established player in the ERP landscape in the SME will be Censof, ABSS.


ABSS had been providing e-invoicing services in Singapore and Hong Kong with PEPPOL partnership.





Understanding traditional invoicing vs e-invoicing through PEPPOL Framework.

The e-invoicing take up rate will be boosted with government initiative to provide RM 100 million digitalization grant to MSME.




I am invested in Censof because I can see the growth in the industry for the long term. Censof is also an established player with good fundamental and links to the government services which will further give Censof additional advantages.

CENSOF GROWTH OPPORTUNITY WITH COMPULSORY E-INVOICE IMPLEMENTATION

 Blog https://targetinvest88.blogspot.com




Malaysia is going to implement e-invoice in stages, with a compulsory implementation by year 2027 in all businesses.


The first stage will be targeted for businesses with turnover exceeding RM 100 million. Subsequently, in 2025 will be business with turnover exceeding RM 50 million. 2026 is for businesses with turnover exceeding RM 25 million, while 2027 will be for all business.

How is this going to benefit Censof in the long run?



Censof core business is to provide software solution for financial management system to both government and commercial SME businesses. To make it easy - their business is "Software as a Service".

According to the latest figure, there are approximately 1.22 million of SME in Malaysia, contributing to 38% of the GDP in Malaysia.



Emergence of a new big market pie with compulsory implementation of e-invoice feature in all businesses.


The type e-invoice that is going to be implemented in Malaysia is going to be real time, to ensure that the e-invoice meet the necessary standards and criteria.

With the real time requirement, the software provider will need to link to LHDN system. Hence the software will need a renewal fee every year for support and maintenance.

With the adoption of e-invoice, it will be estimated that each SME will be needing to pay around RM 3000 to RM 4000 (depends on software complexity and number of users).


In summary, the compulsory implementation of e-invoice will bring about a new big market of RM 3.66 billion worth of business in ecosystem of ERP/POS system. (1.22 million SME x RM 3000)

If Censof is about the capture 15% of the market, that will be worth RM 550 million a year in revenue.

I am invested into Censof for a long term as I can see the potential of the company revenue and profit and dividend growth in the next 3 to 4 years.

Will be looking and sharing Censof software application and potential in the following update.
