Perform +74pc

Shares in Perform, the online sports information business, have risen by nearly three quarters since the start of the year, on the back of its largest acquisition to date.

Its €120m (£97m) deal for RunningBall, a company which provides real-time data about football matches, has helped to bolster the fortunes of Perform’s football website, Goal.com. The popular site used to see a drop-off in activity at weekends because it did not have any live news about who was scoring goals, but the RunningBall acquisition has rectified that and spawned a series of deals to license Goal.com content to gambling websites.

Perform has also been buoyed by rising interest in online coverage in major sports. The BBC and ITV are both planning to broadcast coverage of the London Olympics and Euro 2012 football on the internet.

Perform Group shares have stormed up 81% to 377p, and that even takes into account a recent fall back from a 52-week high of 421p.

While Dixons might have struggled to join the digital revolution, Perform is an example of a company exploiting opportunities that didn't exist without it. Perform works in the business of digital sports media, and provides platforms for advertising and for the commercialisation of sporting events.

And though it has only been around for a couple of years and has already enjoyed such a meteoric rise, forecasts still suggest a PEG ratio (P/E divided by forecast earnings per share growth) of 0.5 this year and 0.4 next -- classic growth shares are generally considered good value at anything under 0.7.

Questor share tip: Perform's winning ways make it one to watch
Perform has a sound business model, but the shares are highly rated. Questor says avoid for now.



Britain is currently obsessed with achievements in our summer of sport. For Perform Group, sport is its everyday business.

Perform is a global market leader in the commercialisation of multimedia sports content. It owns one of the largest portfolios of digital sports rights in the world, through contracts relating to more than 200 sports leagues, tournaments and events.

The company, which floated in April 2011 at 260p a share, is not a typical media business. Its aim is to fill the airwaves with multimedia content 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, but not necessarily the high-profile events that global media companies enter bidding wars to obtain. It shows events that are difficult to see elsewhere, such as 650 Asian football matches.

The company makes money by providing content to news outlets and gambling websites through a "watch and bet" service. It also has subscription sites, such as Goal.com and takes advertising.
In the first half of the year its subscriber numbers rose by 23pc to 398,000 with the launch of new mobile services for Goal.com and clients such as FoxSoccer.tv and Tennistv.com.

In total, eight new editions of Goal.com were launched including for Ghana, Nigeria, Kenya, Malaysia and Singapore.

The Euro 2012 soccer tournament helped pre-tax profits hit £3.4m in the six months to June, compared with losses of £2.2m in the first half of last year.

However, when one-off items are stripped out, profits rose 84pc to £8.6m. Revenues soared 49pc to £67.4m. The group is in a growth phase so it does not currently pay a dividend.

Net cash stands at £24.8m, down from £63.2m after two acquisitions in the period. These were a majority stake in Turkish digital media group Mackolik, which operates Turkish language sports websites, and Runningball, which provides live scores from football matches and other data. Analysts see the cash pile being replenished, hitting about £35m by December. This is perfect ammunition for more earnings-enhancing buys.

More than 13,500 live events are now under contract for 2012 (up from 12,500 in the first-quarter update) and newly contracted rights, including the US Open, broaden the appeal of its content. There are structural growth drivers as connected devices proliferate and online video consumption increases.

Perform is unique in that it is a truly global business. It plans to continue to expand geographically. Its internet services are in demand in places such as Africa and Asia, where about three quarters of its content is distributed via mobile devices.

Advertising is also an important area of growth. With the European soccer season kicking off this is expected to be given a boost, with the strongest period being the fourth quarter.

Questor likes the business a lot but the shares are trading on a very high earnings multiple of 34, falling to 22.5 next year and 17.6 in 2014. This is discounting significant growth over the next few years. First-half numbers have reassured that current-year forecasts will be met but management also sold about 1.85m shares yesterday, banking almost £7m.

Directors sales are always a strong signal for current investors and, after such a strong run, Questor thinks the shares should not be chased at these levels.

However, they are definitely one to watch should any retrenchment occur. For now, avoid on valuation.

LONDON (SHARECAST) - Digital sports content platform group Perform registered impressive revenue growth in the third quarter and said that while there was some weakness in its Technology & Production division, it's still on track to hit targets this year.

Group revenues increased by 44% in the three months to September 30th, from £27.4m last year to £39.5m. That equates to 10% growth quarter-on-quarter.

"We are pleased to report that our strong operational and financial performance has continued through Q3, which reflects the successful execution of our growth strategy," said Joint Chief Executive Officer Oliver Slipper.

"We have reported substantial increases in revenues and are making significant investments in additional content, new platform development and international opportunities as we build the business to deliver long term sustainable growth. We are on track to deliver full-year 2012 results in line with the board's expectations."

Perform commercialises multimedia sports content across internet-enabled digital platforms, driving revenues through a mix of Content Distribution, Advertising & Sponsorship and developing Subscription Platforms.

Content Distribution revenues jumped 47% on last year with a strong performance seen across all products, the group said. Advertising & Sponsorship revenues surged 56%, while Advertising & Sponsorship (display) saw growth of 132% - this was mainly due to the acquisitions of Spox and Mackolik and the continuing growth of Goal.com. Subscription revenues rose 20%.

However, Technology & Production sales fell 5% year-on-year and was slightly below the company's expectations with some contract slippage into the fourth quarter. This division accounts for around a tenth of group revenues.
