SIM具有安全边际及来自许可/船队的上涨潜力,但因管理层执行/时机问题而承担高风险。
逐段跳播
我认为这非常重要,我认为这有很大的未来,对我来说,这个论点是这样的:欧洲的DMS推广已经定价,这是基础,我认为这是安全边际,如果那没有脱轨,我不应该亏大钱。我认为Fleet有很大的期权价值,不仅在他们经典的商业模式上——我们可以说是销售硬件——而且在许可上,他们将把他们的解决方案许可给硬件世界开发者,他们已经在努力达成一项协议来开始这样做,这解决了很多问题,因为基本上有了竞争,你不再与远程信息处理玩家竞争,而是融入他们,这意味着远程信息处理玩家拥有非常差的DMS解决方案,现在有了好的DMS解决方案,可以更好地与客户合作并提高安全性,客户会要求这一点,而Sim会为此获得版税。
市场更小,但利润率也更高。所以我认为这应该是我们在未来几年会看到的一些期权价值。
I think this is really important and I think this has a lot of future and for for me this thesis is okay the DMS ramp up in Europe I think it's priced in that's the base I think that's margin of safety if that doesn't derail h I should not lose big money I think fleet has huge optionality not only on their classic uh business model we could say of selling the hardware but on licensing it they are going to license their solution to hardware world developers, they are already working on a deal to start doing that and that solves lots of their problems because basically with competition you stop competing with telematics players and instead you integrate into them meaning in telematics player with really bad DMS solutions have good DMS solutions that can work better with clients and improve safety uh and clients will will demand that and sim gets a royalty for that the market it's smaller but it's also higher margin. So I think that should be some optionality that we should see over the coming years.
他们已经接近与一家我认为是台湾或日本的玩家达成协议,那家公司将开发他们自己的硬件解决方案,但他们的软件效果不佳。所以他们想把Shing机器作为白标。我们可能会看到像汽车领域那样的版税。
They are already close to a deal with uh I think it's Taiwanese or Japanese player uh that that's going to develop their own hardware solution but their but their software didn't work as well. So they wanted to put on shing machines as white label. We could see poor royalty like in the automotive side.
还没有。他们还没有落地。他们最近,因为第一次我和他们交谈时,我提出了你提到的同样的问题:好吧,你有这个伟大的解决方案,但首先你的覆盖面很小,你不是一个大玩家,你无法在这些远程信息处理玩家提供的其他产品上竞争,所以你知道,你有一个伟大的解决方案,为什么不许可它,为什么不合作呢?
所以他们明白了这是一个非常有趣的机会,他们开始追求它。到目前为止,他们已经获得了兴趣。据我了解,他们正在追求的这笔交易是出于入站兴趣。不是他们在追求其他交易,但他们现在实际上在追求其他玩家来做这种车队方面的许可交易。
Not yet. they have not yet landed them. they they recently because the the first time I talked with them uh I you know I I raised the same problem you you mentioned to me okay you have this great solution but first of all you have a very small surface you are not a big player you cannot compete on the other offerings that these telematics players are offering so you know you have a great solution why not license it why not partner it so you know they've understood that was that was a very interesting opportunity they have started pursuing it so far they've they've they've gotten interest. If from my understanding this deal they are pursuing it was out of inbound interest. It was not them pursuing other deals but they are actually now pursuing other players to do this type of of licensing deals in the in the fleet side.
是的,他有更多的仓位,而且价格很高,比如这个可怜的家伙需要这个成功,而且非常成功,才能在这些上赚钱,比如我认为他在某些上有20倍市盈率,你知道,大约四年的时间框架,如果他们在车队和汽车方面执行,他们可以实现基本上5000万美元的自由现金流,20倍倍数,你得到的价格比现在高3倍。
所以我认为如果他们执行,他们可以达到那些目标,我的意思是,如果他们执行那些,他应该得到很好的报酬。
Yeah, he has he has more trenches and at very high prices like the the poor guy needs this to work and work really well to make uh money on on those like I think he has some at 20 p on some or something like that which you know about a foury year time frame if they execute on fleet and they and they execute on on automotive they could achieve that basically 50 million in free cash flow 20x multiple you get to you know 3x higher price than this one than than the current one. So I think if they execute they can achieve h they can achieve those targets and I mean if they if they execute on those he deserves to to be paid really well.
你知道,我和他谈过很多次。他非常勤奋,比如他周六周日接电话。他们总是在旅行,与投资者交谈,许可交易等等。他们是非常非常勤奋的人。
Uh you know I've spoken with him quite a lot. He's really hardworking like he takes calls on Saturdays on Sundays. Uh they are always traveling uh talking with investors uh licensing deals everything. they they're very very hardworking people.
但关于管理层,我想提一些事情:如果你和过去10年投资这只股票的人交谈,他们对它有非常差的看法,主要是因为他们在时间上经常过度承诺。这是我随着与他们接触而更好理解的事情。他们倾向于在时间上过度承诺,因为很难知道从你得到那笔交易到实际收到文件的时间,这些OEM非常多变。
所以,我的经验是,他们倾向于在他们将实现什么方面是对的,但他们在时间上往往有点晚或相当晚。
But some some stuff I want to mention around management is if you talk with people that have been invested in the stock for the last 10 years, they have a very bad opinion on it mainly because they usually overpromise on timing. Uh, and that's something I I've got to understood better as I've stalled with them. They tend to overpromise on timing because it's hard to know from when you got that deal that's that's practically close to when you receive the paperwork. It's very variable with these OEMs. So, my my experience is they tend to be right on what they will achieve, but they tend to be a bit late or a while late on timing.
首先,关于管理层激励,我应该早点说,因为在欧洲公司看到股价激励是如此罕见。我一看到那个,我就想,‘哦,那真的很有趣,因为它如此罕见,当人们这样做时,他们倾向于,再说一次,没有人能控制股价走向,对吧?
但他们倾向于有一个愿景,关于他们将如何到达那里,当他们授予这些时,他们拥有的愿景以及奖励的设置方式与你的愿景非常吻合,对吧?所以,那很好。’
First, just to the management incentives, I should have gone earlier because it is so rare to see stock price incentives in a European company. As soon as I saw that, I was like, "Oh, that is really interesting because it's so rare and when people do that, they tend to like again, no one can ever control where the stock price goes, right? But they tend to have a vision of how they're going to get there and the vision that they have when they granted these and the way the awards are set very much plays out with the vision you're you're doing, right? So, that's nice.
我想对你刚才说的提出异议,我们可以在这之后结束,但你知道,我听到的很多地方都是我赚最多钱和犯最大错误的地方,对吧?比如,嘿,如果你和一个在这里待了10年的投资者交谈,他们讨厌这个管理团队,对吧?
I guess my push back on what you just said and we can wrap it up after this, but you know, a lot of what I've heard have been the places where I've made the greatest amounts of money and the biggest mistakes, right? Where it's, hey, if you talk to an investor who's been here for 10 years, they hate this management team, right?
每次,你知道,我投资一家公司,比如,哦,你知道,这家公司被误解和错误对待了10年,但现在我要投资它,市场突然会改变。你知道,这个管理团队,他们10个人,10年了,他们头发都白了,因为他们揪着头发,但我要进来,管理团队对我来说似乎很好,你知道,你经过10年学到东西,就像‘哦,是的,这些家伙真的很会说话,但他们从不交付’,你刚才说的很多都有那种味道,比如‘嘿,这些家伙总是不能按时达成合同,因为需要时间’,就像‘嗯,是的,但你知道,我在想一家多年来一直让我头疼的公司,就像‘嘿,在某个时候,不是我的问题。
实际上是他们的问题,对吧?’他们一直说,‘哦,这次大的再融资就要来了。哦,这次大的业绩就要来了。’就像‘我相信你相信,但现在我有10年你过度承诺的证据。’
And every time, you know, I invest in a company like, oh, you know, this company's been misunderstood and misfed for 10 years, but now I'm going to invest in it and the market's suddenly going to change. you know the this management team they've been 10 people who have 10 years they've got gray hair as they're pulling their hairs out but I'm going to come in and the management team seems nice to me like you know you kind of learn after 10 years and it's like oh yes these guys are really good talkers but they never deliver and a lot of what you've said has some of that flavor to it where it's like hey these guys can never quite land the contracts on time because it takes a while it's like well yeah but you know I I I'm thinking about one company that has been a just pain in my side for years it's like hey at some point it's not me. It is actually them, right? They keep saying, "Oh, the this big refi is on the come. Oh, this big performance on the come." It's like I I'm sure you believe that, but now I've got 10 years that you're overpromising.
我完全同意,这在价格走势上已经体现出来了。比如,这只股票没有太多机构参与,大部分交易是散户进行的,就像伦敦市场上的一个Sitco。所以这里最有趣的是,它通常反应非常慢。因此,对于正在收听的人来说,可能当他们完成再融资时,它会缓慢移动。
所以你将有一些时间去研究它。在我看来,当他们的船队部门实现扭亏并开始交付时,它可能会开始快速上涨。所以我的观点是,我有不错的安全边际,随着GSR的爬坡和那些特许权使用费,如果他们执行船队计划,并且如果任何下一个监管条款落地,那将是巨大的上行空间,但这绝对是我投资组合中风险较高的股票之一。
I I I mean, I completely agree and it shows in price action. like there's not a lot of institutionals in the stock like most of this is traded by retail like it's like a a sitco on the on the London market. Uh so the the most interesting thing here is that it usually reacts really slow. So you know for those listening probably when they get the refinancing done it will move slowly. So you will have some time uh to look into it. it will pro probably in my opinion this will start to move up quickly and fast when they get their fleet segment uh you know they they do a turnaround there and they start to deliver on that. So my view is that okay I have decent margin of safety um uh with with the GSR ramp up and those royalties if they execute on fleet and if any of the next regulation legs comes it's huge upside but it's definitely one of the riskier riskiest stocks in my portfolio.
