Enghouse Systems (ENGH-T) has garnered mixed reviews from various experts. While some express concerns about the execution and the company's declining fundamentals, particularly in light of growing competition from AI, others acknowledge its bargain-level valuation and potential for income investors due to a solid dividend yield of around 5.7%. Despite a recent earnings beat, with EPS exceeding expectations, revenue missed forecasts and experienced a year-over-year decline. Investors are wary of the software sector's future as many firms, including Enghouse, face significant challenges amidst what one expert termed a 'SaaS-pocalypse.' The overall sentiment reflects a cautious outlook with the company's volatility raising red flags about sustainable growth prospects.

Has held this for a while. A great business that knows how to generate free cashflow. The challenge for them has been that the border has been closed and their due diligence has been slow.

HOLD

It tends to buy more medium quality assets they can get cheaply. They are good at buying these types of assets and re-positioning them. We have seen some deterioration in their return on invested capital. If you own some, hold it because you won't get hurt by it. The growth rates is similar to its PE so he sees it as fairly valued.

DON'T BUY

Valuation is sky-high, making it vulnerable to the downside. They tripped up a bit on last year's video acquisition. Very acquisitive. Trading at 5-6x revenue, very rich. There may still be downside. Interesting space, but lots of competition. If it got cheap enough, he'd look at it.

BUY

TOP PICK

Most revenues come outside Canada. They've done a fine job consolidating companies over the years. Covid has slowed these deals, so Q1 organic growth was negative. They report this week, and organic growth is expected to remain negative. However, they saw a big bump in videoconferencing sales. Long term, their growth profile is strong. The valuation is near its historic lows and a discount to peers. (Analysts’ price target is $74.25)

COMMENT

And Canada tech outlook We have some robust Canadian technology companies and this will only improve in the future. Lots of exciting things here with a lot of money going into it. He sees growth for 5-10 years. But ENGH is struggling. They have a big cloud-based contact centre business that put up massive 2020 numbers but this is rolling over a little and the stock didn't react well. Their transportation software business has been slow to grow. problems are short term. As the year progresses, organic growth will pick up and their cash should lead to acquisitions and raise the stock. Very confident in management.

WEAK BUY
