Cloud subscription revenue continued to grow rapidly, and the overall revenue growth was affected by business transformation

In 2021, the company’s cloud service business arr reached RMB 1.65 billion, and the contract liabilities related to cloud subscription were RMB 847 million, with a year-on-year increase of 79.0%, laying a foundation for the continuous and rapid growth of the company’s subscription revenue and the continuous upgrading of the company’s business revenue structure. By the end of 2021, the company had added 193200 cloud service paying customers, and the cumulative number of cloud service paying customers excluding financial cloud service customers was 438300. At the same time of business transformation and structural upgrading, the revenue growth of the company’s cloud service and software business is also affected by the following phased factors: 1) the shift from traditional licensing business to subscription business has an impact on the current revenue scale and growth; 2) Gradually promote the implementation and delivery, and provide more services through professional service partners. The subcontracting of implementation and delivery (professional service partners directly sign delivery contracts with customers) not only improves the quality of the company’s business structure, but also has an impact on the company’s current revenue; 3) In the second half of 2021, the orders of large projects increased rapidly, and the corresponding implementation and delivery cycle was prolonged, resulting in the delay of revenue recognition.

Profit forecast and investment advice company has been deeply engaged in the field of traditional enterprise management software for many years, and the industry position is stable; Cloud service is a strategic development direction. It is in a period of rapid growth and has a broad growth space in the future.

The company is in a critical period of cloud transformation, with more investment in R & D, sales and other expenses and low net profit margin. It is reasonable to adopt PS valuation method. In the past three years, the company’s PS has mainly operated between 7-19 times.
