Procurian is the only procurement outsourcing specialist with superior market intelligence integrated into an operational approach, resulting in hundreds of millions of dollars in realized savings.
Is procurement outsourcing still "the next big thing"?
October 10, 2012
Introduction
It is three years since an Ovum report asked whether procurement outsourcing was set to be the next major growth area within the business process outsourcing (BPO) industry. Since then, vendors and market watchers alike have continued to insist that the sector is on the verge of a major expansion, while enterprises have, on the whole, maintained a more cautious attitude toward outsourcing their procurement function.
Highlights
Recent growth may not have been earth-shattering, but the procurement outsourcing market continues to mature and develop. For example, since Ovum’s previous report on the sector was published three years ago, there have been notable shifts in the vendor landscape, with many companies looking to expand their capabilities through acquisitions.
The client base for procurement outsourcing is dominated by large firms (with annual revenues of $1bn or more), and there has been significant uptake from the consumer packaged goods (CPG) and manufacturing verticals.
Revenues grew 23% to $37.4 million compared with $30.5 million in Q2 2011
•EBITDA of $7.8 million from $5 million in Q2 2012
•Signed 2 new clients as well as 6 key expanded or extended contracts with existing clients
•Established delivery operations in Buenos Aires to support client needs in Latin America
•Complete Media IQ acquisition which significantly enhances Procurian’s marketing spend optimization capabilities in the area of media spend.
–Integration of Procurian and Media IQ creates leading platform with more than 75 specialists actively working with approximately $7 billion of spend each year, across 40 blue-chip clients
Daraus lassen sich problemlos ein Umsatz von 150 Millionen und ein EBITDA von 30 Millionen für Procurian ableiten. Und dann wären wir, selbst dann wenn wir nur das absurd niedrige Multiple von 3 wählen würden, bei einem Unternehmenswert von Procurian von 450 Million - und die 80% von ICG Group hätten einen Wert von 360 Millionen.
Würde Procurian so bewertet wie Ariba, müsste die Bewertung bei ca. 1,2 Milliarden liegen und die 80% von ICG Group wären 960 Millionen wert.
Eine sehr konserative Bewertung wäre ein Multiple von 4, was auf einen Unternehmenswert von Procurian auf 600 Millionen hinausliefe, was aber nach oben noch extrem viel Luft zulässt.
Die 80% von ICG Group an Procurian wären dann allein schon 480 Millionen wert, was schon erhebhlich über der momentanen Marktkaqpitalisierung liegt. Und die Cash von ICG Group und die anderen Beteiligung außer Procurian gäbe es obendrei noch kostenlos dazu.
Leading provider of performance advertising services for manufacturers and retailers
Channel Intelligence added as fourth platform, increasing ICG’s ownership in CI to a consolidated majority stake of 52%.
-appointed Doug Alexander, ICG’s President, as CEO of CI
-gives ICG the ability to drive value more effectively at one of its most important companies
Collects, cleans, normalizes, unifies, and combines DATA and then distributes it back through a set of services that drive consumer buying behavior.
•Focus on IR 200 and large manufacturers. Customers include Target, Philips, HP, Neiman Marcus, Best Buy and Kimberly-Clark
•Google Shopping partnership: CI selected as premier partner with Google to help retailers optimize their Google Product Listing Ad campaigns
Der Umsatz dürfte in 2012 bei ca. 30 Millionen liegen, was bei in dieser Branche extrem konserativen Umsatzbwertung mit dem vierfachen Multiple auf einen Wert von 120 Millionen hainusläuft.
Und die 52% von ICG Group hätten dann einen Wert von 61 Millionen. Jetzt am Börsenspiel teilnehmen!

Leider wurde im Detail über die Umsätze in Q4/2012 nicht mehr berichtet, weil man offensichtlich die vier größten Beteiligungen stärker verschmelzen will, so dass man hier auf Q3 zurückgreifen muss:
Last detals about revenues was reported about Q3/2012 in the slide presentation during the Conference Call:

• Q3 EBITDA of $5.7 million compared to $5.4 million in Q3 2011
• Completed the acquisition of Utilities Analyses, (UAI) a company focusing on comprehensive energy services that help clients cut utility costs and achieve ongoing savings in both regulated and deregulated environments

Umsatz von Procurian in 2013: Ich habe die 37,% Millionen von Q3/2012 genommen (da Angaben über Q4 nicht vorliegen ) und statt dem Wachstum von 26% in 2012 nur eines von ca. 19% angesetzt - und daher den Umsatz von Quartal zu Quaartal um 4,5% steigen lassen (1,045 hoch 4 = ca. 1,19 = ca. 19%):
Dann ergaben sich folgende Umsatzzahlen (in Millionen) für die einzelnen Quartale:
Q3/2012: 37,5
Q4/2012: 39,2
Q1/2013: 41,0
Q2/2013: 42,8
Q3/2013: 44,7
Q4/2013: 46,7
Die Addition der vier Quartale in 2013 ergibt einen Wert von 175,2 Milllionen. Wegen der niedrigen angenommen Wachstumsquote können es aber auch sehr leicht 180 werden.

We exceeded our revenue guidance and we are at the high end of our EBITDA guidance range. In addition we repurchased almost a million shares or 930,000 shares of ICG stock for $8.3 million. In terms of looking at the performance from an operating performance over the last four years you can see the company's move from a revenue base of a little less than $93 million in 2009 to $191 million last year which was quite a bit ahead of our guidance of the $180 million to $190 million. On the EBITDA side we saw similar strong growth over those four years growing from $9.3 million of EBITDA to little under $20 million last year in terms of the high end of our guidance range.
(ICGE) ("ICG") today reported its results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2014.
Revenue was $18.4 million for the first quarter of 2014, compared to $12.0 million for the first quarter of 2013. Net loss for the first quarter of 2014 was $(10.2) million, or $(0.27) per diluted share, compared to net income of $19.1 million, or $0.52 per diluted share, for the corresponding 2013 period. The first quarter of 2013 reflects the gains that ICG realized on the Channel Intelligence and Investor Force sales. Non-GAAP net income (loss) for the first quarter of 2014 was $(3.6) million, or $(0.10) per share, compared to a Non-GAAP net income (loss) of $(5.2) million, or $(0.14) per diluted share, for the prior year quarter.
"We were pleased to start 2014 with a strong first quarter," said Walter Buckley, chief executive officer of ICG. "We experienced excellent revenue growth across all of our businesses, demonstrating the success of our aggressive sales and marketing efforts, and we look forward to building on our positive momentum throughout the remainder of the year."
"We continue to drive growth at our existing businesses and we are also poised to capitalize on the power of the cloud to transform other industry-specific vertical markets," added Buckley. "As a reflection of ICG's evolution in our pursuit of this significant opportunity, we are engaged in a renaming and rebranding process and adopting a new ticker symbol. We are seeking stockholder approval for our new name, Actua Corporation, and look forward to unveiling our new brand in the coming months."
