Five mobile and software based stocks to watch but avoid as of now

Medadvisor Ltd


MDR Details

Acquiring Healthnotes:Medadvisor Ltd (ASX: MDR) announced for the acquisition of Health Enterprises 2 Pty Ltd (Healthnotes) for a total $5.5 million in which the company paid 60% of cash and 40% of scrip. Moreover, MDR in collaboration with the national diabetes organization Diabetes Australia, has launched a new tool that allows people living with diabetes to order their consumable products and ensure accurate supply in pharmacy.
 

Gross Profit for FY 16 (Source: Company Reports)
 
MDR reported the revenue from pharmacy subscriptions and patient engagement programs (PEP) growth of approximate 24% to $1.43 million in its maiden preliminary financial report for the FY 16 primarily due to the pharmacy subscription growth. However, the overall revenue is of $1.76m which is 7% lower as compared to FY15 as it includes the final license fee payment of $500,000 under the Actavis agreement. MDR stock rose over 11.8% in the last four weeks (as at September 08, 2016). We believe that the company’s potential is yet to be demonstrated while the stocks seems to be “Expensive” at the current price of $0.038

1-Page Ltd


1PG Details

Revenue growth and major changes at the top level:1-Page Ltd (ASX: 1PG) delivered an 89% growth in revenue for Q2 2016 over Q1 2016 revenue due to both new clients and increased product usage by existing clients. The Average Revenue per User (ARPU) grew 67% quarter over quarter (QoQ). Moreover, 100% of clients have been migrated to the back end of the Source 3.0 Solution, which resulted in a significant reduction in pool delivery time from 3-5 days to some hours only. On the other hand, Q1 sales were impacted by product delays related to staff departures. Moreover, Ms Maria Olide has stepped down as CFO for personal reasons and 1PG is actively searching for a Chief Operating Officer. Mr Varouzhan Ebrahimian is appointed as the Chief Technology Officer from 30th August 2016. The cash and financial assets totaled A$37.8m as at July 31, 2016. Meanwhile, 1PG stock fell over 88.75% in the last six months (as of September 08, 2016) and the stock has been removed from the S&P/ASX 300 Index effective September 16, 2016 market close. Despite this fall, the potential for growth looks meek as of now. Accordingly, we give an “Expensive” recommendation on the stock at the current price of $0.26

SYT Details

Loss grew three times in FY 16:Syntonic Ltd (ASX: SYT) has finished its acquisition of 100% of the issued capital of Syntonic Wireless, which is a Seattle-based software company. SYT has planned to expand its Syntonic DataFlex solution in the U.S. and Freeway by Syntonic solution in Southeast Asia, Latin America and the United States. In this regard, Freeway by Syntonic offered a promotion from July 20 through August 15, 2016 in the U.S. to provide 1GB of free access to Pokemon GO for AT&T subscribers. The Freeway by Syntonic application has also gained overwhelming response in Malaysia and Indonesia while broad commercialization in Southeast Asia region will be done in the coming months.
 

FY 16 Financial Performance (Source: Company Reports)
 
However, for FY 16, the net loss has increased to $659,618 from $210,846 in FY 15. The increase in the net loss from FY 15 to FY16 is largely attributable to business development expenses of $429,667 in FY16 as compared to $62,400 in FY 15. We believe headwinds to the stock would continue given the financial performance as of now while we give an “Expensive” recommendation at the current price of $0.024
