09:43		silverfern: Given the share price is flat vs May 2018 this is looking like a good entry/top up point given today's assurance. Revenue likely to come in at $33-34m so EC's figures in the header look a fair reflection of where we are.

12:06		someuwin: WHIreland... "Water Intelligence (WATR) – Corporate – Third top US insurance company contract signing fuelling further strong growth momentum Market Cap £44.1m Share Price 335p WATR is an international leader in precision, minimally-invasive leak detection and remediation in both drinking and waste water, using highly advanced solutions such as infrared and acoustics and which continues to expand its technology offering. The company has been proactive and imaginative in opening up insurance channel sales as a meaningful driver for the business in recent years, and all the evidence suggests this has been a vibrant and meaningful trigger for growth since the first top-5 US provider was signed up by WATR in February ’17. The client acquisition momentum has also been good, with a second major signing (top 5) in January ’18; and we expect that this morning’s signing of a third major client will be another accelerant to the already strong growth. Already, insurance channel sales have nearly doubled in recent years, and the whole development of the insurance opportunity by definition opens up a very large US market in which WATR remains the only national player. The differentiated model – advanced technology integrated into multiple and efficient delivery channels – offers meaningful opportunities, while selective franchisee reacquisitions are also adding to the growth momentum and optimising the group’s capital structure. 50,000 pinpoint detections already on a national structure basis demonstrates further the strength of the proposition. The scope to grow this channel significantly, in the US alone, is reinforced by the article referenced in the announcement that states that insurers face annual claims of over $13bn for water damage with one in fifty homeowners filing a water-damage claim each year. This also reinforces the trend towards “InsureTech221; products with Water Intelligence well positioned to provide solutions to homeowners. We expect today’s positive news to be followed by further encouragement when WATR reports FY2018E, with strong proactive and reactive growth and hence share price upside. We view the company’s advanced technology as a key differentiator against typical support services companies, and one which deserves recognition from a valuation perspective. The company’s strong year-end update on March 12th demonstrated the scale of the growth momentum, with FY18A sales at +44% and a 14% beat to PBTA expectations. The strong update led us to upgrade for the current year by as much as 9%. We also expect continued reacquisition news, and note that with detailed knowledge on the part of WATR of the characteristics of each franchise, these are low-risk and high-return opportunities. The strong perpetual royalty stream is among features which underpin a SOTP / DCF-based, fair value estimate of approximately 475p, approximately >40% upside on the current price"

13:57		someuwin: WHIreland comment on Today's news... "WATR has been growing all lines of its P&L rapidly – revenues by 44% in 2018 and we forecast continued fast growth in current and coming years. Strong profit growth as well (PBTA c.47% up YoY in ’18). Together with last week’s Florida reacquisition, this morning’s announcement of the sale of a new franchise illustrates the mechanics of this. (1) Reacquisitions, which are typically earnings enhancing and extremely lowrisk, help to drive the already strong growth in the business which WATR manages directly. (2) Franchise royalties continue to grow despite the reacquisitions, and this is further underpinned by the sale of new franchises to highly commercial new or existing franchisees. Demand for security of water is growing – but on top of this WATR has tapped in to the acute need of the insurance sector, which pays out $13bn or more annually in the US for water damage. WATR’s insurance-led sales nearly doubled in 2018 and are driving growth right across the business. In 2018, the franchise royalties grew, despite significant reacquisitions. The company outperformed against expectations in 2018 (by 14%), and will doubtless do so again, holding out the prospect of potential upgrades. A business swinging upwards justifies a much higher share price than the current price."

08:49		someuwin: WHIreland... WATR is a leading and geographically diversified specialist in precision, minimally-invasive leak detection and remediation in both drinking and waste water. Technology-led, the business uses solutions such as infra-red and acoustics and continues to expand its technology offering – a key differentiator against typical support services companies. The business has been a consistent performer with a history of delivering and exceeding expectations, although the share price, latterly, has marked time. WATR has today reported an FY18A PBTA result which is a 14% beat to expectations; and while the rating could be seen as high in the context of Support Services, the valuation should be seen in the light of similar franchise businesses and technology-led companies, reinforced by strong structural growth characteristics (see below). Strong results disclosed this morning show FY sales growing 44%, demonstrating growing momentum and ahead of the already strong Q1-3. No one-off, this continues an accelerating and compounding trend over the past three years, which we expect to be maintained. Insurance channel sales have nearly doubled and this momentum notably shows every sign of carrying on, opening up a very large US market in which WATR remains the only national player. The differentiated model – advanced technology integrated into multiple and efficient delivery channels – offers meaningful opportunities, while selective franchisee reacquisitions are also adding to the growth momentum and optimising the group’s capital structure. Positive update highlights value This morning’s update highlights the strength of revenue growth in FY2018E, at 44% overall, showing that the momentum continued to accelerate in Q4 after the business posted 40% YoY revenue growth in Qs1-3. Net cash was an upside surprise at $US2.5m (vs. $US0.2m expectation). The shares remain well below their recent highs of 450p and share price targets in the market of 425p previously were based on forecasts prior to this morning’s upgrades. Corporate stores grew 72% YoY This morning’s update shows Q4 corporate store (self-delivered) growth accelerating from already strong H1 levels (+47%). While abetted by reacquisitions, this level of growth also demonstrates the internal momentum in the business. Revenue and profit opportunities Growth is both organic (underlying), as the new insurance channels deliver, and proactive, with WATR driving profits on the back of selective acquisitions of its franchisees, while still increasing royalty income. With a massive market to penetrate, as a national organisation, WATR is able to cross-sell effectively. Fundamentals are strong, with US insurers paying out $US13bn for leaks in ’17, while WATR’s royalty stream is effectively perpetual. We expect 24% earnings growth in the coming year before further reacquisitions. Unique and successful model provides distribution platform WATR operates a successful model bringing together diagnostic technology and service delivery while operating alongside stores where it is its own provider (“corporate221; stores) and a >100 franchise national US network. Valuation / upside We expect today’s good update to be followed by further encouragement when WATR reports FY2018E in detail; we expect strong proactive and reactive growth and hence share price upside. We expect continued reacquisition news, as well as further commercial partnerships, giving upside to forecasts. In addition we note the strong perpetual royalty stream which underpins a SOTP / DCF-based, fair value estimate of approximately 475p, approximately 50% upside on the current price.

09:45		someuwin: WH Ireland update... Water Intelligence (WATR) – Corporate – Franchise reacquisition keeps up pace; growth driver remains powerful Market Cap £44.2m Share Price 310p We note the announcement this morning from WATR that it has reacquired its South Atlanta franchise for $425k. This is another in a stream of positive reacquisitions, including Ontario last month (which reaches to New York), and the major Portland and Louisville franchises ($US1m-plus revenues p.a. each) during the course of last year, among others. South Atlanta represents a further strategic move for WATR, given its geography and, having generated revenues of $US320k during 2018, is well placed to support the drive for further strong sales growth by the business going forward. Note that these franchise acquisitions are selective, and WATR is familiar with these assets by definition. On that score, the most recent, Q3, update from the company in December 2018 showed that the business grew in the first three quarters by as much as 40% while also doubling insurance channel sales (major market opportunity in the US). This morning’s announcement specifies Tuesday 12th March as the expected date for its next update, which we anticipate will further build the picture of strong and sustainable growth. This morning’s update also highlights new technologies which will further strengthen its appeal. As a national player, it is able to apply its technologies consistently across the market, a significant advantage. With the shares trading at the lower end of the recent range, we see decent upside for the shares.

12:14		someuwin: WH Ireland "WATR’s Q3 December update highlighted overall revenue growth in the first three quarters of as much as 40% together with a doubling of insurance channel sales as the business penetrates further the sizeable US market. Combining consistent royalties and a technology profile, WATR has a highly differentiated business model as the owner / developer of leak detection technology operated by itself and franchisees across the US, where it is the only national player. It has been selectively buying in franchisees for a good price, which has enhanced the company’s growth trajectory; and we expect this to continue. Underlying growth is fed by insurance and other national channels. In Qs 1-3, the franchise business also grew organically, despite reacquisitions. A dollar earner, the business is underpinned by strong fundamentals and the fall in the share price flies in the face of trading momentum, consistent delivery and a history of exceeding expectations. We expect this to correct on the back of expected strong newsflow and potential forecast upside."
