Shares - Gobble up big data play


Buying opportunity at Fusionex after four-month share slump


Analysts believe there is a fantastic buying opportunity for investors the big data space after a four-month slide in the share price of Malaysian technology company Fusionex (FXI:AIM). Unlike several AIM technology companies this year, the £169 million cap has not disappointed on promises and on several measures has bettered expectations.

Having launched its long-awaited big data analytics suite, named GIANT, just before Christmas, Fusionex continues to bolster its channel partnerships, adding (24 Jun) global IT vendor EMC (EMC:NYSE) to a roster that also includes big data platform providers Cloudera and Hortonworks. ‘This is a significant addition to existing GIANT sales relationships,’ says Panmure analyst George O’Connor.

Fusionex - 3 July

Interim results (21 May) continued the rapid growth seen last year, posting 35% rise in sales and 36% increase in earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation (EBITDA).

Fusionex joined AIM in December 2012 after raising £12 million at 150p. The stock hit a record 748p in February this year. But investors have been de-risking their portfolios by selling technology stocks across the board during the past few months, driving Fusionex stock to the current 392.5p.

‘With a half-year beat under its belt, and a price to earnings growth (PEG) ratio of 0.73, we think more good sales news is in the offing,’ predicts O’Connor, who has a 657p target price on the stock, implying 67% upside.

Double Awards



Fusionex, an award-winning and market leading international provider of enterprise software specialising in Analytics and Big Data solutions, is pleased to announce two further awards.



Fusionex's new Hong Kong division which was opened in 2013 has been awarded the "Microsoft Best Business Analytics Award". This award is given in recognition of Fusionex's expansion into Hong Kong and the remarkable progress that has been made in its first year of operations. The Hong Kong office now acts as a gateway into mainland China, a largely untapped market for Fusionex, and this award will further support Fusionex's credentials as the Company expands into Northern Asia.



The Group is also pleased to announce that CEO Ivan Teh has been awarded the "Most Outstanding Entrepreneur of the Year" at the Asia Pacific Entrepreneurship Awards. Organised by Enterprise Asia, the award is supported by a panel of some of Asia's most prominent leaders.



Fusionex CEO Ivan Teh commented:



"I am delighted to announce these awards. The recognition from Microsoft for our Hong Kong division is very important for the Group and will underpin our planned expansion into mainland China and Northern Asia. Fusionex continues to see traction from broader geographic markets and sectors through our existing channel partners as well as new opportunities, and this award will further support this growth.



I am also very honoured to receive the Most Outstanding Entrepreneur of the Year award. This award is especially meaningful because it is not just about individual recognition, but more importantly this award serves as an endorsement of the Fusionex team's talent, commitment and unquenchable passion that has driven all the innovation and success of Fusionex thus far."

Trading Update



Fusionex, an award-winning and market leading international software provider specialising in Business Intelligence, Analytics and Big Data, is pleased to provide the following trading update for the year ended 30 September 2014.



During the period, the Group has continued to make good progress securing new client mandates for its big data analytics platform, GIANT, in addition to further broadening its geographical reach, particularly in the Asia Pacific region.



Demand for the Company's award winning GIANT solution remains strong. In addition, the Group's partner channel network for GIANT continues to make positive headway with announced agreements in place with Cloudera, Hortonworks, Revolution Analytics, EMC and AvNet.



Management remains confident that a combination of the Group's strong market position within the Asia Pacific region, significant sales momentum underpinned by new GIANT mandates, and on-going investment in R&D will continue to generate exciting growth.



The Company continues to maintain a strong cash position, and the Board anticipates that the Company's full year results will be at least in line with market expectations.

Signal Update

Our system’s recommendation today is to BUY. The BULLISH HARAMI CROSS pattern finally received a confirmation because the prices crossed above the confirmation level which was at 252.5000, and our valid average buying price stands now at 253.0000. The previous SHORT signal was issued on 05/11/2014, 14 days ago, when the stock price was 259.6500. Since then FXI.L has fallen by -2.56%.

Market Outlook

The bulls have strong evidence on their side and this evidence prompts us to make a bullish bet. The bullish pattern that was previously identified is finally confirmed and a BUY signal is generated. It is probably the right time to be part of this boost and bullish market sentiment. The market is telling you about a possible new profit. Do not miss this chance.

Shares - A Giant opportunity

Unlike several AIM technology companies this year, the £129 million company has delivered on its promises, and is encouragingly developing a useful knack for beating market expectations. Fusionex joined the AIM on 18 Dec 2012 after raising £12 million from investors at 150p. Excitement over its enterprise, and now, big data analytics solution GIANT saw investors chase the shares to a record 737.5p in February this year. The stock has since fallen substantially as the UK stock markets sold off heavily during the summer, but a capital markets day 18 Nov hammered home the opportunity at current 300p levels. Investors should not be put off by the company's South East Asian roots. This is a genuine global company in the making with increasing revenues from Europe and the US.

Signal Update

Our system’s recommendation today is to STAY LONG. The previous BUY signal was issued on 19/11/2014, 9 days ago, when the stock price was 253.0000. Since then FXI.L has risen by +54.15%.

Market Outlook

The bulls are in full control. The negative sentiment that led to the last bearish pattern has evaporated. Besides, the signal is suggesting to STAY LONG. It is best to follow the signal and continue to hold this security.

Market Outlook

You may relax since our STAY LONG position is secure. The market action does not cast a serious doubt on the wisdom of going long.
