Kurtz CrowdStrike Holdings, Inc. – Co-Founder, CEO, President & DirectorI will start today's call by summarizing 3 key points. First, fiscal 2023 is off to a fantastic start. We believe our Q1 results exemplify that we have a winning formula that includes scale, growth, profitability and free cash flow. Second, we saw strength across the platform, including a record quarter for modules deployed in the public cloud and over 100% year-over-year ending ARR growth for our emerging product group, which includes our Discover, Spotlight, Identity Protection and Log Management modules. And third, we are seeing more and more customers standardize on the Falcon platform. The number of customers adopting 6 or more and 7 or more modules both grew more than 100% year-over-year. We believe this underscores our wide competitive moat and our opportunity to drive long-term sustainable growth in both our core and expansion markets.On demandThe demand environment we see is more robust today than this time last year as cybersecurity is not discretionary. Additionally, the competitive environment has remained favorable to CrowdStrike. Our growing leadership in the market is reflected in IDC's most recent report where CrowdStrike leapfrogged to the #1 position amongst all vendors in the 2021 market share for worldwide corporate endpoint security and once again took the top spot in modern endpoint security.Moving to the market dynamics and threat environment, we continue to see powerful tailwinds fueling our market, and we do not currently see any indication that these trends will abate anytime soon. These tailwinds include a rapidly expanding attack surface and digital supply chain as organizations embrace digital transformation and move more workloads to the cloud, the cybersecurity skills gap in a heightened threat environment.Number of modules new customers start withYes. So our bigger customers, those over $1 million, as we talked about on the webinar in April, we -- each of those customers has about 7 on average, just over 7 modules. In terms of landing new, we talked about in FY '22, it's 4.7. And that's up from 4.3 from the year before.Thank you for reading Compound Town Investment Research.

When looking at key indicators, our competitive win rates and renewal rates have remained strong. In Q1, RPO grew 43% and current RPO grew 57%. Total revenue grew 65% and Okta standalone revenue grew 39%. New customer additions remain strong at 800, bringing our total customer base to 15,800, representing growth of 48%. We also continue to do well with large customers.Notable customer winA Fortune 500 insurance company was a great Okta SIEM and Workforce win. What's more, this customer was sourced through the AWS Marketplace, which has been doing well for Okta since we became available there in late 2020. The company sought best-of-breed tools to modernize the organization's aging IT infrastructure. Their legacy on-prem tools lack the capacity and stability to meet the needs of the business. Okta will provide a cloud-native identity solution to support their modernization efforts, while also addressing their on-prem infrastructure needs with Okta Access Gateway.Management Commentary: Brett Tighe, CFOOn dollar-based net retention rateOur dollar-based net retention rate for the trailing 12-month period remains strong at 123%. This was driven by the strong upsell motion we are seeing with our existing customers across both Okta and Auth0 as they expand on both products and users.On FY 26 financial goalsOur long-term financial goals anchor on at least $4 billion of revenue in FY '26 with organic growth of at least 35% each year and 20% free cash flow margin in FY '26. To achieve these targets, we will continue to scale the company from a people and processes standpoint, including investing in talent across all areas of the company as well as in systems to prepare us for the next phase of growth.Investor Q & AOn the future of identity and federal/department of defense interestJust yesterday, we had the global CIO of one of the major branches of the DoD in our office with his entire executive team talking to us for the entire day about the future of identity and what it was going to look like. And I mean these are just the kinds of conversations, frankly, that regardless of what happened in Q1 with that security event or not, we were not having these conversations 6 or 12 months ago, and I think it portends very well for the future.The federal government opportunity is a massive one for us.Federal was the biggest deal of our quarter this year -- this quarter in terms of ARR. And that federal division was specifically focused on customer identity and access management. And you really see that the government is thinking about how they can adopt more of these modern solutions for a lot of their forward-thinking initiatives. You -- we've been working for a long time on bolstering up our federal capabilities. And we've got -- we've been FedRAMP Medium, Moderate for some time. We've got FedRAMP High and IL4 that are scheduled for this summer.Austin’s takeawaysThis was a strong quarter considering the macro fears and Okta’s security incident in Q1Management seems confident and excited about both international and federal opportunitiesManagement reiterated FY26 goal of $4 billion in revenue with 35% organic growth and 20% free cash flow margin representing a score of 55 on the rule of 40This is on my watchlist due to its low multiple, important market, and growth expectations but I’m hesitant to start a position because of questions around profitability at scale.

Gitlab (GTLB) Conference Call Notes (UPST, SHOP, ADBE, TTD, OKTA News)

HAPPY TUESSSSSDAYToday we’re covering some news stories about Upstart, Shopify, Okta, and The Trade Desk then diving into my notes from GitLab’s (GTLB) earnings call last week. TLDR I was very impressed, opened a position, and tend to DCA in overtime keeping it a “large” position in my portfolio. BUT FIRSTThis newsletter would not be possible without Commonstock. In my mind, Commonstock is like Twitter without the bots and people trolling you because they think they are the ruler of all opinions on stocks/investing. This isn’t an advertisement, but I love the platform so much that I badgered the team so much over the last couple of years that they basically had to give me a job so I’d stop bothering them.In all seriousness, I joined because the team is focused on improving the world’s financial health by creating a platform that amplifies transparency and accountability alongside people’s opinions on everything from crypto to stocks. My portfolio is linked securely on Commonstock and you can always see my positions, trades, and performance at this link. Portfolio NewsUpstart (UPST) is down 7% after Wedbush downgraded it to underperform with a $75 price target (Down from $110). The analyst noted weakening delinquency trends. This doesn’t concern me at all and I intend to keep dollar-cost averaging (DCA) into UPST so I’ll take lower prices due to short-term fears all day!Shopify (SHOP) was down 12% yesterday after an announcement that Google intends to offer “Last Mile Fleet Solution” to help business owners optimize deliveries/logistics. At this point, I’m not concerned and SHOP will move towards the top of my list for new contributions if prices drop more from here. If we see Shopify’s results suffer in the next few quarters, then it could indicate they’re losing part of their competitive advantage. I’ll research this new offering from Google and share it in a future email.Okta (OKTA) is currently down 8% pre-market after hacking group Lapsus$ posted screenshots on its Telegram claiming to have hacked Okta. Okta has stated it sees no signs of a breach. As of right now, I’m not concerned and I certainly trust Okta’s track record + management to quickly fix anything (and make the platform better) if there was a breach. Okta is currently at the top of my list to buy when my next contributions hit. I talked about that in yesterday’s email. Adobe (ADBE) reports earnings this afternoon. I own a starter position in Adobe because it is a fantastic company with a very long track-record of success. I don’t intend to add to my position because its multiple is a bit high considering forward growth estimates and I believe there are better opportunities elsewhere (see link to yesterday’s email). I’d start to get interested in adding shares if the P/E gets down to around 29-30. It’s currently at a blended P/E of 35.3. That’d be about a 20% drop from here down to around $390/sh. I have no idea what happens with earnings.The Trade Desk (TTD) launches new certified service partner program for SMBs. “This program expands self-service access to The Trade Desk’s demand-side platform, as client demand for data-driven advertising continues to rise. As part of this announcement, Goodway Group becomes The Trade Desk’s first certified service partner to help meet this rising demand.” I own TTD and won’t be selling my shares anytime soon, but I’d love for the multiple to come down a bit before adding. GitLab (GTLB) Conference Call NotesAfter Gitlab’s earnings last week I sent an email saying I intended to buy shares with the new contributions that were coming into my account (link). I ended up purchasing shares on Tuesday and Wednesday and the position is up nicely. It’s currently a large position for me and I have some catching up to do in building other positions so I won’t be buying more in the next month or two but I’m very bullish on the company’s future. Here are my notes from the earnings conference callCEO Sid Sijbrandij opening remarks:Beat revenue expectations with revenue of $77.8 million, 69% year-over-yearDollar-based net retention rate exceeded the 152% we reported in S-1 filing Strength was broad-based across enterprise, mid, and SMB customersUltimate remains fastest growing tier of product offeringStrength indicates the market is moving from DIY DevOps to a DevOps platform which plays to GitLab’s strengthGartner Market Guide for value stream delivery platforms states that by 2024, 60% of organizations will have switched to a platform approach, up from 20% in 2021Management believes “the source of our product differentiation is our platform approach to DevOps.”“We believe our single application helps companies to deliver software faster, improve organizational efficiency and reduce security and compliance risk. The DevOps platform also enables our customers to manage and secure the entire DevOps workflow across any hybrid and multi-cloud environment.”“Acquisition of Opstrace, a pre-revenue open-source observability solution will allow GitLab to offer robust monitoring and observability capabilities that will enable organizations to lower incident rates, increase developer productivity and reduce mean time to resolution.”Management believes DevOps platform addresses a $40B market opportunity. Bain & Company study showed 90% of companies believe DevOps is a priority but only 12% believe they have mature DevOps practicesAdded over 500 net new base customers. New logos/expansions include U.S. Army, Deutsche Telekom and Travis Perkins.Travis Perkins expansion: “Travis Perkins is the U.K.'s largest distributor of building materials. They accelerated their migration to the cloud using GitLab Premium by consolidating their software to it. Doing so increased their velocity, cut down overall cost by 20% and it allowed their team members to focus on building new customer-facing digital services and capabilities instead of managing their toolchain. This quarter, they upgraded from Premium to Ultimate licenses and more than doubled the number of users on the system. This will expand usage of GitLab to their security teams and allow development operations and security to collaborate on a single DevOps platform.”CFO Brian Robbins remarks:Revenue is the key metric to evaluate the health and performance of the business. Because approximately 90% of revenue is ratable, it serves as a predictable and transparent benchmark for how we are growing.“Cohorts from six years ago are still expanding today. This is a testament to how we're constantly adding value to our customers. Most of our customers start using GitLab with small teams with just one to two stages of our platform. From there, they typically increase their spend with us 2x over the first year as our platform is adopted across multiple teams. Customers then continue to increase their spend as our platform expands to more teams across their organizations or they upgrade to a higher paid tier.”“We are also effective at retaining our customers. When our customers deploy the DevOps platform, it becomes a central platform from which all their DevOps workflows originate from, making it sticky and difficult to replace. The result is that we ended our fourth quarter with a dollar-based net retention rate exceeding 152% which is higher than the disclosure we provided in our S-1 at the time of our IPO.”“Our platform is offered with a free version and two paid subscription tiers which we call Premium and Ultimate. Our paid tiers are priced per user with different features per tier. Every user within an organization is on the same plan which helps keep our business model transparent and easy to understand. The Ultimate tier is our fastest-growing tier, now representing 37% of our annual recurring revenue for the fourth quarter compared with 26% of annual recurring revenue in the fourth quarter of FY 2021 and growing in excess of 100%. In FY '22, our non-GAAP gross margin held steady at 89%. Over time, we expect this to compress as our SaaS offering becomes a larger portion of our business and associated hosting costs will increase.”Over 4,500 customers with ARR of at least $5,000 per customer compared to over 4,000 customers in the prior quarter and over 2,700 customers in the prior year. This represents a year-over-year growth rate of approximately 67%. Currently, customers with greater than $5,000 in ARR represent approximately 95% of our ARR.Over 490 customers with ARR of at least $100,000, up from 420 customers and over 280 customers compared to the prior quarter and year, respectively. This represents a year-over-year growth rate of approximately 74%39 customers with ARR of at least $1 million compared to 20 customers at the end of the prior fiscal year which represents a year-over-year growth rate of 95%.Total RPO grew 95% year-over-year to $312 million.Non-GAAP gross margins were 89% for the quarter which compares to 90% in the immediately preceding quarter and 89% in the fourth quarter last year. As we move forward, we're estimating a moderate reduction in this metric due to the rapid year-over-year growth rate of our SaaS offeringNon-GAAP operating loss was $27.4 million or negative 35% of revenue compared to a loss of $22.2 million or negative 48% of revenue in Q4 of the last fiscal year. Q4 includes $5 million of expenses related to our JV and majority-owned subsidiary.Guidance:For first quarter of FY 2023, we expect total revenue of $77 million to $78 million, representing a growth rate of 54% to 56% year-over-year.We expect a non-GAAP operating loss of $38.5 million to $37.5 million.We expect a non-GAAP net loss per share of $0.28 to $0.27, assuming 147 million weighted average shares outstanding.For the full year FY 2023, we expect total revenue of $385.5 million to $390.5 million, representing a growth rate of 53% to 55% year-over-year.We expect a non-GAAP operating loss of $142 million to $138 million.We expect a non-GAAP net loss per share of $1.02 to $0.97, assuming 148 million weighted average shares outstanding.Our annual FY 2023 guidance implies non-GAAP operating margin improvement of almost 300 basis points year-over-year at the midpoint of our guidance ranges. Over the longer term, we believe that a continued targeted focus on growth initiatives and scaling the business will yield further improvement in unit economics.Q&AQuestion about where strength in 152% net-dollar retention rate is coming fromAnswer: Ultimate is driving a lot of upsell because of the advanced security capabilities. Create and verify are used heavily; so they are important too. Apart from create, verify and secure, we see growth in packaging and release. Packaging, for example, is replacing JFrog Artifactory at more and more customers.Question on acquisition of Opstrace, the pre-revenue open source application in the category of observability.Answer: Observability lets you close the loop. You plan to make something, you make it, you roll it out and then you see how it does. So it's a really important element of a DevOps platform and we're really early. But because it's so important, we wanted to accelerate how fast we got there and we love the team and the product that Opstrace already built. So we acquired them to rebuild that inside GitLab and we think that closing that loop will help our customers achieve better business outcomes. If you get feedback faster, you reduce your cycle time and you get better outcomes. And it's really important to note that we'll do it in an iterative fashion. So in the beginning, our solution will not so much compete with existing vendors but with nonconsumption. People haven't set up monitoring yet and we'll start from a simple product and work with our users and customers contributing to expand the functionality over time.Links to company news articlesUpstart downgraded by WedbushShopify - Google “Last Mile Fleet Solution”Okta potential security breachAdobe Investor Relations PageThe Trade Desk Launches New Certified Service Partner Program for Small and Medium-Sized Businesses This is a public episode.

丘孔报科技。2020年11月17日。星期二。1、 11月16日，在广州国际生物岛举行的2020官洲国际生物论坛上，中国工程院院士钟南山致辞时表示，国外辉瑞疫苗能阻止90%的感染，其实广东乃至中国的疫苗研发水平也差不多，但要有了第一阶段试验结果才能公布。2、最近，来自美国心脏协会的一项研究发现，辣椒可能对健康产生重大影响。该协会的初步研究显示，吃辣椒的人死于癌症和心脏病的风险可能“大大降低”。丘孔点评，这项最新研究涉及对数千项现有研究的分析，最终从多个拥有健康和饮食记录的国家/地区提取了超过57万人的数据。研究人员将吃辣椒的人与未吃辣椒的人进行了比较，发现香料蔬菜有许多潜在的好处。这其中，与不吃辣椒的人相比，研究发现那些吃辣椒的人因心血管原因而死亡的几率减少了26％，因癌症死亡的几率减少了23％，总体死亡几率减少了25％。3、近日，美国通信行业解决方案联盟(ATIS)宣布成立「下一代G联盟」，并将苹果、谷歌等科技巨头纳入其中，将为未来北美的6G技术指明方向，而中国也刚刚发射了全球首颗6G试验卫星，正式开启太赫兹技术验证。4、11 月 16 日下午消息，2020 首届上海国际网络文学周在上海浦东启动。大会发布《2020 网络文学出海发展白皮书》（以下称《白皮书》）。《白皮书》显示，截至 2019 年，国内向海外输出网络文学作品 10000 余部，覆盖 40 多个 “一带一路”沿线国家和地区。2019 年翻译网络文学作品 3000 余部。其中，在海外 95 后最爱创作，女性作者写得最多的是言情题材。5、就在刚刚，美国太空探索技术公司 (SpaceX)的载人 “龙”飞船搭载 “猎鹰 9 号”运载火箭发射升空，将 4 名宇航员送入国际空间站。在一级火箭与猎鹰 9 号分离后，SpaceX 将尝试利用大西洋上的无人船回收一级火箭。6、依靠铜添加剂，康宁研发出杀菌涂料可在2小时内杀死99%细菌。7、针对腾讯月薪7万多的硬核，腾讯员工现身说法，腾讯当前共有员工近7万7千多人，大部分的职级分布在7/8/9这三个段，因此这三个段才最能反应腾讯的真实收入水平，而即便在这三个段内，能拿到每个段的最高薪的也是凤毛麟角，就像招聘告诉你工资是8K到12K，往往意味着能给你的就是8K一样。也就是说7/8/9职级的收入月薪基本在2.5万，3.3万，5万，虽然超过很多工资的月薪，但传言到7.6万无疑是在诱导群众。8、在英国《科学报告》发表的最新研究成果表明，日本东京大学的科研团队发现，从福岛第一核电站附近采集的地下水中，检测出含有超过自然标准浓度的放射性物质氚。采集发现，福岛周边10个地方中的多处，均连续检测出每升平均20贝克勒尔的氚。丘孔点评，核电站才是世界的未来，但是核电站的安全还需要逐步加强。最近听卓老板谈论核电站的一系列音频，非常通透，我下载下来了，如果你需要，可以找我。9、京东发布第三季度财报。京东第三季度营收1742亿元人民币，去年同期1348.43亿元，同比增长29.19%。2020年第三季度应归属于普通股东的Non-GAAP净利润从去年同期的31亿元人民币增长了80.1%，至56亿元人民币(合8亿美元)。丘孔点评，看到这些大企业的利润，就害怕大企业会夺去所有人的安逸，只留下公务员和大企业员工的幸福。还是那句话，适度的垄断会促进社会进步，我们现在的状态是适度吗？多少度的垄断算适度？10、11 月 16 日在滴滴出行开放日上，滴滴正式发布定制网约车 D1。滴滴出行 CEO 程维表示，D1 是全球首款定制网约车，与比亚迪合作，花费三年时间打造。以前的汽车是为家庭设计和生产，而 D1 是为共享而生。D1 是快车级的价格，拥有奥迪 A6 的空间；配备 30 万元 + 的汽车才会配备的安全系统；可大幅降低司机运营成本。丘孔点评，非常期待这款车的到来，网约车司机的饭碗也是可能最快被迭代掉的，你每一次躲避，都在增加自己被替代的可能。滴滴计划于 2025 年推出 D3，普及 100 万辆，搭载自动驾驶功能；2030 年希望去掉驾驶舱，实现完全自动驾驶。2030年完全自动驾驶几乎一定会到来，网约车司机的未来在哪里？需要新的岗位来承担未来，每一个司机都要设身处地的思考一下。11、索尼、LG 被德国法院裁定侵犯 Solas OLED 专利，停止在德销售并召回相关产品。丘孔点评，一个如此在乎专利权的国家，创新能够得到保护，才会有源源不断的资金投入创新领域。德国的制造业如此强大，应该有其必然的原因吧。12、格力电器今日发布公告，自 2020 年 11 月 17 日起由公司董事长董明珠女士代行董事会秘书职责，直至公司正式聘任董事会秘书。丘孔点评，自己服务自己，老板以后出差报销，谁来贴发票呀？！13、饿了么近日与华东师范大学、大庆师范学院、商丘职业技术学院等约 500 所高校食堂，以及麦金地等团餐平台达成合作，至此全国累计已有 100 座城市近 1000 所高校食堂通过饿了么开通外卖服务。学校师生可以通过预约取餐或者外卖送餐的方式，在饿了么上点到食堂餐品，校园内平均 20 分钟送达。14、三星今天发布了全新的智能显示器，这是一款具有工作、学习和娱乐功能的全新显示解决方案。与三星智能电视一样，三星全新智能显示器也采用了 Tizen 操作系统，为 PC 和智能手机提供了众多的连接方式。丘孔点评，显示器多花一点钱，自带一个可以更新的操作系统，的确可以快速普及；甚至某些时候，用户使用显示器自带的操作系统，就能完成任务，根本不需要什么主机和一体机了。用一体机的思维做显示器，或许是下一波骚操作。锤子的手机type-c直接连接显示器办公的思路也不错。15、近日，华为技术有限公司新增多条商标信息，包括名为 “荣耀”、 “荣耀视频”、“荣耀钱包”、“荣耀阅读”、“荣耀亲选”、“荣耀花粉”等，申请日期在 11 月 6 日。丘孔点评，我之前说华为不会放弃荣耀，卖身是为了让荣耀更好的发展，现在信了吧。16、从多位接近华为高层的知情人士处获悉，华为消费者 BG 正在与智能汽车解决方案 BU 进行整合，总负责人是华为消费者业务 CEO 余承东。丘孔点评，余承东临危受命，希望在智能汽车领域继续手机领域的辉煌。17、近日，拼多多隶属企业上海寻梦信息技术有限公司新增多条商标信息，商标名为 “碰多多”、“碰碰多”、“多多拼购”等，国际分类涉及运输储藏、通讯服务、广告销售等，商标状态显示为 “商标申请中”。18、腾讯科技（深圳）有限公司新增多条商标信息，其中包含两条名为 “羊你太美”的商标，国际分类涉及教育娱乐与科学仪器，其中前者已完成注册，后者仍处于申请阶段。丘孔点评，羊大为美，这是中国古代造字的哲学——看我家肥羊，多大呀，太美了。羊你太美，是哪门子理解？求破解。19、三星电子（Samsung Electronics）开始准备 Mini LED 背光 LCD 电视量产，并于越南斥资 400 亿韩元投资兴建 Mini LED 电视产线，有望即将正式推出 Mini LED 电视。丘孔点评，中国的人力成本，在高房价的薅羊毛下，已经不太利于外资生存。老百姓其实没有得到多少福利，那些房产快速飙高产生的剩余价值，被谁他妈的吃了？20、台积电四大主力客户苹果、高通、英伟达、联发科近期大举追单提高备货量，台积电 5 纳米、7 纳米先进制程产能满载，部分订单已排至明年下半年。丘孔点评，天天听到技术进步，14纳米量产，28纳米不依赖国外，6纳米曲线实现，怎么感觉都是扯淡呢？哪条生产线开工了？技术突破到哪里了？国内的媒体们，如实报道不好吗？21、“全民 K 歌”涉黄处理结果：腾讯被顶格罚款，全面整改，下线 “交友陪玩”功能。22、长江小米基金、联想创投入股钛深科技，因其能够提供柔性触觉传感器等技术。23、海尔智家发布公告称，如 H 股发行上市顺利推进，公司 H 股预计于 2020 年 12 月 22 日在港交所挂牌上市及交易，H 股股票代码为 6690。24、realme李炳忠发文称，根据Counterpoint第三季度全球手机出货量报告，realme只用了9个季度就实现了累计销量5000万，成为全球最快获得5000万用户的手机品牌。25、11月16日，搜狐公司公布了2020年第三季度财务报告。第三季度搜狐营收1.58亿美元，其中品牌广告收入为4100万美元，环比增长8% 。在线游戏收入为1.01亿美元，较2019年同期下降6%，较上一季度下降4%。PC客户端游戏方面，总计平均月度活跃用户数为200万，较2019年同期下降5%，较上一季度增长5%。26、DevEco Studio 是面向华为终端全场景多设备的一站式分布式应用开发平台。目前，DevEco Studio 已更新至 V2.0.10.201 版本，新增支持 Mac 操作系统，以及车机（Car）和智慧视觉（Smart Vision）设备的工程模板创建。丘孔，一个长期主义奉行者。哪怕帮你领先一分钟，也算丘孔报科技的欣慰了，如果你感觉受到了帮助，也请你帮助一下我们，请帮忙转发。

Show Outline The full show notes for this episode are available at https://www.diyinvesting.org/Episode91 Owner's Earnings definition and its Approximations GAAP Earnings vs Owner's Earnings vs Free Cash Flow Everything is an approximation attempt at Owner's Earnings What are the Owner' earnings? The cash available to be distributed from the business TODAY without impacting the competitive position of the business for the future. How much cash could be paid in dividends today if the business didn't grow AND didn't shrink? We're going to talk about Amazon today Using Amazon's 10k. (2019) Investing Rules for Fundamental Analysis of GAAP Earnings Expenses should be treated as expenses even if they don't involve cash outlays Think like an owner, not a manager If your estimate of free cash flow exceeds 110% earnings you're probably wrong. (Not always but probably). It is rare for a company's free cash flow to exceed earnings. Stock-Based Compensation This is the big one. How you calculate this can be a problem. Amazon recorded a $6.8 billion non-cash expense for “stock-based compensation” in 2019. Jan 2019 shares: 491.2 million Jan 2020 shares: 497.8 million An increase in 6.6 million shares during that period. Yet, using Amazon's market price of $3,200, it would require $21.1 billion to buyback that many shares. Should you use $6.8 billion as the expense or $21.1 billion? In January 2020, Amazon was priced at $1,800 per share, so let's use that price. That's still $11.8 billion to buy back the shares. This means Amazon is understating the cost of its share issuance by AT LEAST $5 billion, in a single year. Maintenance CapEx vs Growth CapEx vs Depreciation It is a fallacy to say that Growth CapEx is simply Total CapEx minus Depreciation. Inflation will cause maintenance CapEx to exceed Depreciation in most cases. Also, have to consider property plant and equipment acquired under finance leases. $13.7 billion in Amazon's case. Questions from Twitter Valuation Adjustments Land Inventory Investments Goodwill is ambiguous Deferred revenue classified as a liability (false reading of a firm's financial condition) Response: Pay upfront is useful as a float when growing but harmful when growth reverses. May have to pay refunds? Change in accounting rules for operating leases (now considered an asset with a matching liability) Software and R&D immediately expensed even though it can be an asset like a factory or a machine. Non-GAAP adjustments are either (1) non-recurring or (2) non-cash. On (1), can you explain how you factor in non-recurring costs into a forecast for valuation, and (2) how to deal with the amortization of acquired intangibles vs total amortization (ie. incl. Non acquired intangible assets) Companies will sometimes only back out acquired intangibles and not amortized internally developed assets. Adjusting CAPEX for operating leases. Summary: GAAP stands for "Generally Accepted Accounting Principles" and GAAP earnings represent net income available to shareholders using these accepted accounting principles. GAAP is foundational for investors trying to calculate the owner's earnings.

【DannyData第1集】特斯拉上海工厂，有什么影响？原创：小丹尼当我们国人聊起特斯拉时，想象中的特斯拉是老司机开Model 3百公里加速3.4秒、Model S 2.6秒的风驰电掣，但实际我在北京看到的往往是堵在路上挪不动。或者是特斯拉老板Elon Musk偶尔来趟中国，和马云来场“火星人对话”。特斯拉在中国，其实是一个名声远远超过销量的公司，你用DannyData对比一下特斯拉在美国和中国的收入就知道了，这是特斯拉在美国和中国的收入对比：特斯拉在中国市场还有巨大能量没有释放，但是随着特斯拉的上海工厂Gigafactory量产，甚至我看到了知乎朋友Emma发的国产Model 3上海上路照片：特斯拉在中国可能重现Model 3在美国市场销量增长的奇迹。那么除了销量，上海造的特斯拉，还会有哪些影响呢？今天我就从三个方面来谈一谈。我是小丹尼，谈车说科技。首先跟大家啰嗦一下我的视频最大特点，也是和其他视频的最大区别，在我这里使用的所有论据，包括数据或引用谁说的话，我都要找到论据最根源的出处，比如公司数据，我就要查到官方发布的财报原文，比如谁说的话，我就要找到原版视频出处等等。因为我不想使用二手甚至多手信息误导他人，当然这就需要我科学上网阅读大量外文资料，花费了我不少时间精力。我在论据内容上有洁癖，也是为了我分析的对象负责，而且我会清晰标明论据出处，方便想挑刺儿的二次验证。所有的这一切努力只为一个目的：随你反驳。好了，说回今天视频的主题：上海造的特斯拉，会有什么影响？先说第一个方面，降成本。很多人关注的是特斯拉炫酷的一面，比如Elon Musk用自己公司SpaceX猎鹰重载火箭把自己的一辆特斯拉Roadster跑车送上了太空，但却不知道特斯拉是一个极其强调降成本的公司。如果你持续关注特斯拉的财报，你会发现特斯拉会在财报中反复强调降成本这件事，而且优先级排的极高。比如2013年，当时还是Model S刚量产时期，特斯拉就在2013年二季度致股东信里强调车毛利润率（automotive gross margin）要达到25%目标。这里给小白科普一下：所以为了提高毛利润率，要不增加收入，要不降成本。而在2013年的当年年底，特斯拉也确实完成了车毛利润率要达到25%目标，顺便说一句，特斯拉在财报里会把毛利润率分为三种：特斯拉说的车毛利润率要达到25%目标，其实指的是Non-GAAP车毛利润率，但实际情况是，特斯拉在2013年底，三种毛利润率都达到了25%的目标，我们可以从DannyData图里看到这三种毛利率的历年走向：如果你想成为第一批使用DannyData分析工具的用户，帮你把车和科技公司看得更全面、更透明、更彻底，或者跟我聊一聊特斯拉，可以加我的微信，扫描屏幕上的二维码或添加微信号dannydata1。而到了2019年三季度财报的开场白里，Musk除了先说一些场面话，上来又是反复强调控制成本。所以说在省钱这件事上，Musk是颇有心得的。这里可能有人不同意了：“你说特斯拉降成本，也没见上海国产的特斯拉便宜啊？35.58万元起步，也没比进口特斯拉便宜多少啊？” 拜托你要注意一下交付日期为2020年一季度，你想一下，如果现在特斯拉把国产Model 3标了个比进口Model 3低很多的价格，特斯拉这几个月的进口Model 3还怎么卖？这就是奸商商家常用的锚定效应。这里举个例子科普一下什么是锚定效应，我想起小时候我妈买衣服说原价上千，非常有成就感的还价到两折买的，虽然我毫无情商的指出“原价都是卖衣服自己定的，想标上万都行”，其实这就是商家先锚定一个很高的价格，之后再让你砍价或搞个双十一大促销，这样就让你误以为捡到了大便宜，还很有成就感。所以这就是特斯拉定价策略的问题了，把国产Model 3先定一个较高的起步价，一是尽量减少对进口版特斯拉的销量冲击；二是没有让国人觉得“国产的就是比进口的要差”这个印象，你不得不承认咱们国家还是有很多人有这种刻板印象；三是给未来降价留下充足的空间。很多人都喜欢拿我们的高端电动车品牌蔚来和特斯拉作比较。看到这里，我想你也会跟我一样，认同知乎朋友张抗抗的一段话：而随着特斯拉上海Gigafactory量产，会让特斯拉的成本继续下降。 Morgan Stanley分析师Adam Jonas就表示，考虑到中国上海工厂的劳动成本仅为美国加州工厂的十分之一左右以及其他方面的成本削减，特斯拉在中国的毛利润率可以达30%左右。与豪华车品牌保时捷在中国的利润率相当。说起豪华车，你可能经常听到有人吐槽：同特斯拉车内饰科技感有余，但奢华感不足，其实也是降成本的另一体现。往好听了说就是：“特斯拉将成本利用发挥到极致。“无论你是否认可这句话，但不能否认的是，特斯拉在有限的成本下，确实设计出自己独特的风格，并且让很多科技发烧友愿意为之买单。好了说完第一点，可能颠覆了你对特斯拉以往的炫酷印象，Musk不仅像钢铁侠，也像一个会省钱的小媳妇。那我们接着聊第二个方面，未来产品整合。不知你有没有注意到，特斯拉的很多用户是属于增量消费者，什么是增量消费者？就是本来对这个品类毫无兴趣的消费者，也被特斯拉的产品吸引成为了消费者，用创投圈经常说的一个比喻就是“把蛋糕做大了”。 Model 3就不多说了，是很多美国中产家庭改善生活的换车首选。而特斯拉在11月21日发布的皮卡车型Cybertruck，让很多身边从来对皮卡车型不感兴趣的人，也有了购买欲望。要知道皮卡车型可是福特的天下，再配上一首美国乡村音乐，基本上是美国老大爷的标配，正如我国老大爷的片儿鞋、汗衫配老年代步车。我之前去美国住的Airbnb，房东大爷和打Uber的开车大爷，开的都是福特老皮卡。要知道目前的皮卡车型销量，仍然占福特整体销量超过半壁江山，而且唯一有销量增长的也只剩皮卡了。所以你清楚特斯拉发布Cybertruck，最紧张的是谁了吧，我相信特斯拉将会很快改变皮卡天下的格局，咱们等着看。这里顺便说一句，Musk在2019年初就将Cybertruck的设计与电影《银翼杀手》挂钩，激起了众多网友的创作欲，不得不说Musk是营销高手，别光看Musk说特斯拉不会花钱投放广告，说以后可能会打广告但也绝不会是现在的传统广告形式。而事实上Musk各种托马斯全旋式的花样玩法，都是变相在为自己的产品打广告。我多说几句，其实在我看来，大多数企业家并没有那么愿意在公开场合抛头露面，比如年少时期的Musk是个被霸凌的羞涩男孩，Paypal时期是个谢顶的geek程序员形象，都和现在的Musk形象大相径庭，只不过是为了自己事业，说更直白点就是为了增加销量的同时还能减少营销费用，改变些自己的性格在公开场合抛头露面，这都是小事儿了。只不过有些中国企业家玩得太极端，比如砸个杯子、夫妻互揭黑历史什么的，虽然可能也是为了“投入精力和效果产出比”考虑，但这确实不是什么值得称赞的。好了再说回特斯拉，普通消费者会把特斯拉的产品理解为各种型号的车，比如Model SEXY, 但其实Musk的野心远不止如此。比如电池和动力总成，Musk在财报电话会里说特斯拉会在电池和动力总成等方面帮助其他车企：Musk用的单词是help，确实之前特斯拉公布专利是help，但未来一定会sell。目前在国内，无论是锂电池包Pack装机量还是锂电装机量，宁德时代都是当之无愧的老大，占据半壁江山。特斯拉如果开始对外销售电池，谁会紧张呢？你又知道了吧。这绝对不是危言耸听，特斯拉向来在电池方面是投入大量资源的，比如特斯拉在2019年3月16日花2.35亿美元收购电池技术公司Maxwell：特斯拉在电池方面绝对是有很大野心的，而且目前仍然保持绝对领先地位，可以参考Matt的电动车电池效率排名：不仅是电池，而且特斯拉Gigafactory工厂本身，其实也是产品。Musk在财报电话会里说会把上海Gigafactory做成一个模板，在世界其他地方复制，而且未来投入产出比会更高：比如2019年11月13日宣布Gigafactory 4落户德国柏林，那里距离波兰边境不远，那里的劳动力成本相对更低。好了等特斯拉Gigafactory在上海扎下了根，什么ModelSEXY，什么锂电池、动力总成服务，什么太阳能发电产品，都可能会加速在中国落地，甚至卖好了还会有第二个Gigafactory落地中国，这也说不准。所以说，只把特斯拉当作卖车的，就 too simple sometimes naive了。第三个方面，本地化服务首先，我想起Musk在2018年q4财报电话会上提到特斯拉做的“超级傻”（super dumb）的一件事。Musk在中国的时候，特斯拉中国团队向他提建议：“您认为我们是不是应该在中国特斯拉服务中心备用一些中国制造的零部件？因为现在很多情况是，在中国制造零件，寄到美国新泽西仓库储存起来，又寄回中国服务中心使用”。可能很多大公司都做过这种超级傻的事情，但是像Musk这么耿直男孩在财报电话会里直接自黑的，确实不多见。上海Gigafactory完全落地，涉及到中国本地资源的更多整合，我想Musk自黑的这种跨地球级别“超级傻”问题将很少出现，其实这也是中国政府布下的互惠互利大局，这个我在结尾说。当然，我们说的本地化服务，肯定不仅仅是配个本地零部件那么简单。Musk曾有一个比喻很有意思：“未来没有自动驾驶的车，就像现在的马用处一样。” 我也坚信未来的车一定会完全自动驾驶，只是时间问题。要做好自动驾驶，除了硬件配备，还需要优秀的算法，而数据就像算法的“肥料”，而“肥料”中的“高能肥”当然就是本地化的数据。 Musk曾在2019年4月份的访谈里说：“特斯拉的自动驾驶Autopilot收集数据量，占路面上所有自动驾驶车辆收集数据量的99%以上。”他的算法是跑在路上的特斯拉超过50万辆，这些特斯拉无论是否在自动驾驶都在不断收集数据，而其他家竞争对手自动驾驶车辆不超过5000辆。我且不多评论Musk的算法是否合适，他说的当然不是完全apple to apple的比较方法，只是想强调一个概念：数据对于自动驾驶的重要性，而本地化数据更加重要。换句话说，如果特斯拉想要在中国这种复杂路况做好自动驾驶Autopilot，必须收集大量的本地复杂数据。今天聊了这么多特斯拉，我还想多补充几句。我知道无论我怎么说特斯拉，哪怕只是列出客观数据事实，也总会有网友说我是为了找特斯拉恰饭、电动车吹等等。其实我把这种现象分为两个层面。第一个层面：不太涉及利益相关，比如只是爱看热闹起个哄的群众。对于这种朋友，无论是夸我也好，还是骂我也好，其实我现在都没有什么感觉，因为我知道，别人夸我或骂我，只是为了表达他们自己的价值取向，而我的内容并没有那么重要。这种态度是我从梁文道先生那里学到的。第二个层面：涉及利益相关，比如是某些车企员工，或者是某个品牌的忠实粉丝或车主，就像我之前收到过不少蔚来车主的骚扰。如果你把特斯拉当成自己的对手甚至敌人，可以看看我欣赏的《教父3》里Michael对侄子Vincent说的一句话: Never hate your enemies. It affects yourjudgment.你永远不要恨你的敌人,他会让你失去判断力。或者学学海明威《老人与海》中的老人，对自己的对手大马林鱼的尊重。在我看来，特斯拉绝对是一个值得尊重的对手，而且他确实也让我国很多电动车企业受益了，有包括何小鹏在内的多家车企老板公开感谢过特斯拉当年开放电动车专利。蒋方舟之前去台湾发现更美好的一面，在《我承认我不曾经历沧桑》这本书里去写道：台湾并不是我们的对比，而只是一种更好的可能性。那这里我想改编一下：特斯拉并不是其他车企们的对比，而只是一种更好的可能性。更进一步说，特斯拉真的只是我们的对手或敌人吗？可能没那么简单，至少咱们政府的态度不是这样的，除了给特斯拉上海Gigafactory这块地地，还给钱、给政策，比如贷款85亿人民币给特斯拉，而且贷款利率低于90%的中国银行一年期的贷款利率，再比如特斯拉成为首家在华独资建厂外资车企，都表现出咱们政府对特斯拉的态度。有人可能问了：为什么我们要对一个纯外国企业这么好呢？小丹尼微信群友TTT发了驭电的一个观点，我觉得很有意思——开放特斯拉入华，国家的意图非常清晰：利用特斯拉，再造当年苹果产业链的辉煌。目前我们在手机行业的辉煌，华为小米OV产品能有这么高的质量，跟背后强大的产业链支撑是分不开的。而且就在2019年10 月 22 日，工业和信息化部新闻发言人黄利斌表示：未来将进一步对外资开放汽车及相关领域。所以特斯拉到底是我们的对手，还是我们的帮手，还是那句：我们不是生活在一个非黑即白的世界，成年人看的不只是对错，更是利弊。好了，我是小丹尼，谈车说科技。重要的事再说一遍，如果你想成为第一批使用DannyData分析工具的用户，帮你把车和科技公司看得更全面、更透明、更彻底，或者想跟我聊一聊特斯拉，可以扫描屏幕上的二维码或添加微信号dannydata1，加我的微信。回见。

Our Position:I had my eye on Anaplan (PLAN) before it IPO’d (became a public company) but chose not to invest because I was concerned with sales and marketing spend and wondered if the company would be able to grow.So far, they have executed well, proven there is demand for their product, and the stock had increased around 80% since it IPO’d in October before I opened a position. Common investing “wisdom” would caution people from investing after a stock had increased that much in such a short period of time, but I love to see signs of strength from companies and believe this is an indication of more to come from Anaplan.Shares Owned: 519Average Purchase Price: $44.67 (opened initial position May 30, 2019)Total Purchase Price: $23,200Current Share Price: $47.50Current Value: $24,700Unrealized Gain: +6.3%Position Size in Portfolio: 5.28% (small)First Quarter 2020 ResultsTotal revenue: $75.8 million, up 47% year-over-year.

Non-GAAP operating loss: $20.1 million, or 26.5% of total revenue, compared to $23.3 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2019, or 45.2% of total revenue.GAAP loss per share: $0.30, compared to $1.21 in the first quarter of fiscal 2019. Non-GAAP loss per share was $0.16, compared to $0.25 in the first quarter of fiscal 2019.Cash and Cash Equivalents: $332.7 million as of April 30, 2019.Key Slides/GraphsSubscription revenue is continuing to grow steadily. We should see increased growth in Q2 and Q4 if last years’ trends continueI’ll keep an eye on this number. If we see growth of customers spending >$250k ARR begin to slow, it will be a red flag for future growth potential.I expect margins to stay relatively flat with potential increases as the company and their products become more well-known/established.Billings growth longs very strong.Updated Full-Year 2020 GuidanceI generally don’t pay too much attention to guidance. The companies I am invested in usually provide very conservative guidance that they’ll easily beat. However, I DO pay attention when companies warn about guidance, lower guidance, or raise guidance.Anaplan raised it’s guidance for full-year 2020:Total revenue is now expected to be between $326 and $331 million (was between $310 and $314 million).Non-GAAP operating margin is now expected to be between negative 22.5% and 23.5% (was between negative 26% and 27%).Recent HighlightsI don’t pay too much attention to these. Of course companies are going to highlight recent successes, but results are far more important than self-selected business highlights. I learned this lesson with a company called Nutanix that I was previously invested in. Management boasted about all kinds of highlights, they were/are a leader in Gartner’s Magic Quadrant, but the results we relatively week and confusing for multiple quarters. The stock has suffered tremendously over the last year +. There is at least one important benefit from being identified as a leader according to Gartner. It makes it easier for customers to legitimize using a “new” solution like Anaplan because of the recognition of Gartner’s name/ratings.Anaplan Positioned as a Leader in 2019 Gartner Magic Quadrant for Sales and Operations Planning Systems of Differentiation.MUFG Investor Services announces their choice to use Anaplan for clients’ real-time planning processes.Anaplan announces CPX 2019 in San Francisco, expected to welcome over 2000 attendees from around the world June 10-12.To be continuedThat’s all for today.

Hey everyone, There will surely be a lot of headlines in the news today, many will probably negative because that’s what gets clicks but most of the headlines don’t matter.We’re focused on one story today: Zscaler’s Third Quarter 2019 Earnings. Zscaler (ZS) reported earnings on May 30th and they were pretty good. Today we’re going to focus on the prepared remarks to keep this under five minutes, tomorrow I’ll cover Q&A.Our positionNumber of shares: 439Average purchase price: $51.85Cost basis: $22,800Position size: 7.43% (medium)Current share price: $68.31Current value: $30,100Unrealized gain: $7,310 | +32%ResultsRevenue grows 61% year-over-year to $79.1 million Calculated billings grow 55% year-over-year to $84.7 million Deferred revenue grows 69%year-over-year to $211.5 million GAAP net loss of $12.2 million compared to GAAP net loss of $8.8 million on a year-over-year basis Non-GAAP net income of $7.4 million compared to non-GAAP net loss of $2.6 million on a year-over-year basisPrepared RemarksCustomer Story from Jay Chaudhry -- President, Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the BoardLet me highlight several new customer deals in the quarter. I will start with a deal that shows how large enterprises are buying the ZIA and ZPA platform. One of the world's largest pharmaceutical companies with its headquarters in Europe purchased our transformation bundle for 100,000 users aims the ZPA for over 17,000 users. Moving from a decentralized IT business units to a centralized IT model. This customer had a strategy to transform to the cloud, for their network and for their applications. To achieve this, the IT team identified two initiatives, one increase use of cloud including a move to Office365, Zoom and AWS.And number two network and security transformation. They adopted a strategy to create secure local Internet breakouts for 200 offices around the globe. Our cloud security platform allowed them to realize the vision, a perimeter less enterprise with direct access to any service or application from anywhere, on any device without back hauling traffic through regional hubs. The results reduced business risk, faster user experience and significant cost savings. They will no longer need either a site to site VPN to AWS, or remote access VPN. ZPA also enables the customer to rapidly integrate mergers and manage divestitures, while increasing the level of security with a zero trust network access approach.Comments on the competitive landscape As organizations increasingly make the shift to the cloud, traditional firewall and VPN vendors are finally acknowledging that the legacy security appliances can secure the new digital enterprise and are attempting to build a security cloud using single tenant software designed for on-premise appliances just like you can't create a Netflix service by stacking thousands of DVD players in the cloud. You can't offer an inline high performance security cloud by spinning up a bunch of virtual machines in a public cloud. This is a defensive strategy of cloud imitators, which in our view serves the self-preservation of the vendor not the needs of the customers.We believe, we have a significant competitive advantage as a result of the technology, architecture and maturity of cloud security platform including one, we were born in the cloud, for the cloud just like Salesforce and Workday. Two, we have a purpose built globally distributed multi-tenant cloud for fast user experience, unlike imitation cloud, Zscaler requires no back hauling from front doors to a central compute data center of a public cloud. Three, we perform SSL inspection at scale as a purpose built proxy for better security. Four, we deliver zero trust network access that provides application access without network access reducing business risk unlike firewalls and VPN's.And lastly we have over 10 years of experience running a mission critical inline cloud for Global 2000 customers, processing 65 billion transactions a day. As someone said, it is really no compression algorithm for experience. We continue to innovate and invest in maintaining our significant technology lead. Our latest fourth generation large data centers provide multiple 100 gigabits per second links. We continue our strategy of targeted tuck-in acquisitions. Our previously announced trust path acquisition is already well integrated into the Zscaler platform and their machine learning and AI technology is helping us deliver better threat detection.LinksThank you so much for your time and attention. I love providing this information but as investors, the best way to learn is to dig into these reports on your own and come to your own conclusions. Here are all the links below. I’ll generally review the release, then listen to the earnings call (this is important because we can gather so much from tone and communication styles), then read the transcript and take notes.Zscaler Third Quarter 2019 Earnings ReportZscaler Third Quarter 2019 Earnings Call (replay)Zscaler Third Quarter 2019 Earnings Call Transcript (Motley Fool)Thank youThat’s all for today.

Growing numbers of U.S. public companies are tying executive pay to “adjusted” earnings figures that often overstate performance as measured by generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), the standard for financial statements filed with the SEC. Robert Pozen, senior lecturer at the MIT Sloan School of Management, discusses CII's April 29 petition LINK to the SEC asking the agency to require public companies to reconcile any “adjusted” earnings measures they use to GAAP figures in the proxy statement's Compensation Discussion & Analysis section, and to explain their rationale for using adjusted measures in setting executive pay.
