ICGCommerce und wichtiger Beispielskunde
Insbesondere neu entstehende extrem schnell wachsende Firmen, die zu Megafirmen aus dem Boden schießen wie Avaya, sind gerade zu geschaffen für das Outsourcing der Beschaffung ihrer indirekten, also der nicht strategischen Güter. Entsprechende Abteilungen werden erst gar nicht aufgebaut und daher gibt es auch keine Widerstände und notwendige Sozialpläne für deren Abbau. Wir sehen also, die Beschleunigung des Strukturwandels arbeit auch für die 76%-Beteiligung von Internet Capital, ICGCommerce.
Outsourcing since day one
By William Atkinson -- 3/16/2006
Five-year old telecom company Avaya in Basking Ridge, N.J. made a conscious decision from the start—
outsource whatever can be outsourced. And from day one, that has included the procurement function.
Joe Siciliano, senior manager of global procurement operations at Avaya, says the company began
operations with a procurement outsourcing partner, but, "When that contract expired three years ago, we
ran a sourcing event for procurement services." As a result of that event, Avaya has been working with
ICG Commerce ever since.
Avaya focuses most of its outsourcing work in nonstrategic spend categories, such as office supplies and
indirect materials. But it has outsourced some strategic spend areas.
"For example, since we are a telecommunications company, telecom is strategic to us, but it has been
completely outsourced to ICG," states Siciliano. ICG handles activities such as sourcing, commodity
management, market research and data analysis.
ICG personnel actually work on-site at Avaya, in the company's procurement center managing
transactional activity such as creating purchase orders and updating supplier databases.
But ICG also adds strategic value. "For example, when one of our internal customers says it wants to buy
from Company A, but Company B is our preferred vendor, ICG will have a discussion with the customer to
drive them to the appropriate vendor," Siciliano says.
ICG personnel also handle reporting duties, such as analyzing data, as well as providing new ideas and
opportunities for sourcing and commodity management.
Finally, as new events come up in areas that ICG does not cover, it may begin to provide complete
sourcing in these spaces. "There is a lot of flexibility here, which is the way I like it," emphasizes Siciliano.
"If they begin to provide sourcing in a new space, we may pull resources from other areas." For example, if
there is nothing of value that needs to be sourced in the telecom space, Siciliano may arrange to move the
ICG person who is responsible for telecom purchasing to handle a sourcing event in training, especially if
that person already has some experience in the sourcing of training.
Early in the relationship, Avaya and ICG created a strategy for each commodity. "We went through a
series of sourcing events, commodity by commodity, to show [ICG] what our expectations were in each
commodity as part of a three-year plan," he explains. "We also created service level agreements for the
transactional piece, making sure they were ambitious for both sides."
Avaya and ICG have created a strong relationship, both on the macro and the micro level—strong enough
that ICG is part of every issue Avaya has with its supply base.
"[ICG's on-site employees] are part of the organization," Siciliano says. "I don't look at them as a third
party. They are my partners."
The relationship with ICG started out with positive results—double-digit savings from the outset. Subsequent savings have been the result of the partnership formed.
Currently, while Avaya sources globally, most of what it does with ICG is in North America. "We now want
to look at stretching this relationship out globally, because my peers in the other regions of the world want
to start reaping some of these benefits too," Siciliano says.

I'm one of the longs hanging out here, hoping for a rise in the stock...so take what I say with a grain of salt ;)
ICGE is essentially an incubator - they own or partially own many smaller, private companies which focus on internet-based business services for the most part. ICGE makes money by either getting these companies to break-even or better (some are closer than others, but most are fairly young and aren't there yet). The other way they make money is to either sell the companies (which they did last year with LinkShare, making $160 million), or they IPO them. The largest IPO they did so far was Blackboard (BBBB), which they still hold over 2,000,000 shares of.
Most of the full time emps, I'm assuming, manage the corporate structure and/or sit on the boards of their partner co's and help out, etc.
Revenue is huge, but a big chunk of that was the one-time sale of Linkshare (whom many think was their best asset) last year. It remains to be seen if they come up with some more jewels, but suffice it to say that the revenue will probably not be linear in the future, rather some discrete pops as these transactions materialize.
My take on the stock is that they've sorted out their financial house, survived the bubble, and their business model is finally starting to click. Patient investors may well be rewarded - but it's still a very high risk stock. I wouldn't put the house payment into this!
Good luck to you...

In einem Punkt vertrete ich eine abweichende Meinung. Internet Capital ist keine very high risk stock wie der Poster schreibt. Diese Nummer hat er wohl von denen abgeschrieben, die seit einigen Jahren ihre Hausaufgaben nicht gemacht haben. Internet Capital war eine riskante Anlage, als es noch mit erheblichem Fremdkapitaleinsatz arbeitete. Aber es ist nun schon zwei Jahre her, dass man fast das komplette Fremdkapital durch Eigenkapital ersetzt hat. Insgesamst wurde eine Wandelschuldverschreibung von fast 600 Millionen durch Monetarisierung von Vermögen und die Ausgabe neuer Aktien vollständig getilgt. Von der in diesem Zusammenhang neu aufgenommen Wandelschuldverschreibung in Höhe von 60 Millionen sind noch 37 Millionen da. Diesen stehen 240 Millionen Cash und Wertpapiere gegenüber, was der zweite Punkt ist, dass wir mit Internet Capital eine sehr sichere Anlage haben - auch in diesem Punkt sah es früher ganz anders aus. Und schließlich ist Internet Capital sicherer als eine Einzelanlage, da es die Risikien aktienfondsähnlich streut. Beinahe hätte ich auch noch einen weiteren Punkt vergessen: Der extrem unter dem Inventarwert der Beteiligungen liegende Ansatz für die einzelen Beteiligungen. Man bekommt sie mit einem Abschlag von 50%.
Offensichtlich kommt das Hohes-Risiko-Gerede aus einer Zeit als die Aktien noch 4280 Dollar kostet - und da stimmte das in der Tat genau.

Shortseller kommt unter zehn Dollar nicht aus der
Falle, wenn es kein Long-Short-Stratege ist, also jemand der langfristig kauft und kurzfristig shortet. Allerdings entfernt sich auch ein Long-Short-Stratege beim Eindecken von seinem langfristigen Ziel, seinen Bestand an Internet Capital zu erhöhen.
Aber die Auswirkungen auf den Kurs sind eben andere als bei einem Nur-Shorter.

Seit über einem Jahr findet nachbörslich kein
Handel mehr statt - bis auf heute, wo in umsatzschwachen nachbörslichen Zeiten gigantisch manipuliert wird.
Normalerweise ein Fall für die SEC, aber ich schlage lieber nicht an die SEC zu mailen, sondern wenn man kann an seinen Broker: Kaufen bis zum Anschlag.

Das Geschäftsmodell von Internet Capital wird heut
wieder einmal durch die folgende Nachricht besonders deutlich. Da man vor allem durch den Verkauf von Linkshare auf reichlich Cash sitzt, wird diese Cash jetzt wieder in neue Beteiligungen investiert, die sich noch in einem früheren Stadium der Entwicklung befinden - es muss schließlich auch für Nachschub in der IPO-Pipeline gesorgt werden. Und genau diese sich laufend erneuernde Zugang an IPO-Kandidaten ist auch nach meiner Auffassung der Grund dafür, dass man die 72,5 Millionen Gewinn des Jahres 2005 als nachhaltig ansehen kann. Wie andere Autos, Computer oder Hamburger produzieren, ist der Kauf und der Verkauf von Unternehmen das normale Geschäft von Internet Capital - folglich ist der Gewinn daraus auch nachhaltig und ordentlich, auch wenn er vielleicht stärker schwanken wird als bei einem normalen produzierenden Unternehmen. Dass ein auf dem Gewinn von 72,5 Millionen in 2005 und einer Marktkapitalisierung von 350 Millionen basierendes KGV absurd niedrig ist, wird auch den Märkten bei allen emotional bedingten Aversionen, die man auch auf diesem Board gut erkennbar sind, nicht mehr allzu lange verborgen bleiben. Man sollte sich meines Erachtens mit dem Einstieg beeilen, wenn man ihn denn ins Auge gefasst hat.

Die Märkte werden verrückt spielen
wenn das Nachstehende konkreter wird, was man in dem nachstenden Bericht von Reuters über Freeborders lesen kann, wo Internet Capital 33% hält. Ich hatte ja Freeborders in den vorhergehenden Postings mit ca. 10 Postings vorgestellt. In dem Artikel geht es um kleineren Konkurrenten von Freeborders. Wenn auch nur Bruchteil dessen wahr werden, was man da lesen kann, wird Freeborders eine gigantische Goldgrube für Internet Capital. Besondere Aufmerksamkeit hat natürlich der nachstehende Satz im folgenden Artikel bei mir geweckt: "Shenzhen-based Freeborders, another start-up that told Reuters last week it hoped to go public in the 'not-too-distant' future, with hopes of achieving a market capitalisation of $1 billion or more." Was "not-too-distant" heißt, weiss ich auch nicht, aber davor sollte man auf jeden Fall in dem Wert sein, wenn man denn einzusteigen gedenkt.
Von den ca. 360 Millionen Marktkapitalisierung sind schon allein 200 Millionen durch Nettocash/Wertpapiere abgedeckt. Die restlichen ca. 15 Beteiligungen (die börsennotierten Gesellschaften Blackboard, GoIndustry und Traffic.com stecken in 200 Millionen Nettocash/Wertpapiere) müssten also lediglich einen Wert von 160 Millionen abdecken. Würde Freeborders tatsächlich ein Milliarden-IPO, wären die 33% von Internet Capital 330 Millionen wert, allein das wäre schon das Doppelte der obigen 160 Millionen und weitere ca. 15 Beteiligungen gäbe es noch gratis dazu.

Augmentum aims to build China software giant
By Doug Young and David Lin
SHANGHAI, Feb 13 (Reuters) - Software outsourcing start-up Augmentum is turning up the heat on its Indian rivals, with plans to build a China-based juggernaut boasting 40,000 employees and $1 billion in annual sales by 2013.
The three-year-old firm is on a rapid growth trajectory that saw revenues double last year to more than $12 million, with a target of doubling that figure again every 12 to 18 months through 2013, chairman Leonard Liu told Reuters in an interview on Monday at the company's China headquarters in Shanghai.
He said Augmentum, which counts Motorola and Microsoft among its clients, began with 50 engineers at its Shanghai design centre in its first year, growing to 200 people in 2004 and 400 at the end of last year.
'We expect to have 600 people by the middle of this year,' said Liu, a China-born software engineer who emigrated to the United States by way of Taiwan, returning to Shanghai after opening Augmentum in 2003.
'In the summer we'll open another site in Beijing, and by year-end we'll have 800 people. ... My plan is to reach $1 billion in revenue by 2013. We have a target for 40,000 people in China by then. If you double each year you can get that big.'
Those numbers would pit Augmentum against India's biggest software outsourcing company, Tata Consultancy Services , which logged $740 million in revenues in its most recent reporting quarter and previously said it expects to have about 60,000 employees by the middle of this year.
Augmentum, which is aiming for an initial public offering in 2008 or 2009, is joining a growing bandwagon of start-ups and global software makers trying to tap into China, with its highly educated workforce and fast growing economy, the same way major companies began looking to India in the 1980s and '90s.
Others in the market include global giants like IBM , Hewlett-Packard Co. , BearingPoint and India's Infosys , along with Shenzhen-based Freeborders, another start-up that told Reuters last week it hoped to go public in the 'not-too-distant' future, with hopes of achieving a market capitalisation of $1 billion or more.
LABOUR LEADER
All are chasing a Chinese software outsourcing market now worth about $1 billion in annual exports, but expected to grow rapidly over the next few years as multinationals look to diversify away from India where costs are rising rapidly.
Liu said that a Chinese software engineer in Shanghai now costs roughly 15 percent less than that for a comparable worker in India.
But he acknowledged that a Chinese staffer with good English skills can be up to 20 percent more expensive than one in India, where such skills are relatively common.
Poor language skills are just one of several issues that foreign companies complain about when setting up in China. Other problems include lack of practical employee experience, unreliable infrastructure and intellectual property theft.
Despite its rapid growth, Augmentum has managed to reach its current size solely with funding from its founders, and has not had to seek major venture capital due to the relatively low cost of a business where manpower is the main expense.
But with potential acquisitions in sight as it moves towards its aggressive growth targets, Liu said he would not rule out an equity stake sale or other fund raising in the run up to the planned IPO.
'This year or next we could acquire a company,' Liu said. 'Many software acquisitions are made using stock. I would rather use equity in our company (to finance a deal), but we could also find cash. Lots of people want to invest in our company.'
He declined to put a value on his company, but said the market currently values similar firms at five to 10 times revenue. Thus a revenue of $25 million this year would value the firm at up to $250 million even at this early stage of its life.
'I obviously think that a company in this area is worth a lot,' he said. ((Reuters Messaging: doug.young.reuters.com@reuters.net; +86 21 6104-1768))

Traffic.com war der letzte IPO von Internet Capita
und obwohl man da nur 3% hielt, sind die knapp 700.000 Aktien immerhin zwischen sechs und sieben Dollar wert. An seinen acht Kernbeteiligungen, die nicht börsennotiert sind, hält Internet Capital im Schnitt dagegen 49% - also das Sechzehnfache wie bei Traffic.com.
UPDATE: Russell Adding 27 IPOs To Small-cap Index
By John Spence
BOSTON (Dow Jones) -- Russell Indexes on Thursday revealed the new crop of initial public offerings that it plans to add to its widely followed benchmarks at the end of the month.
The company said 27 newly minted public companies -- such as Chipolte Mexican Grill Inc. (CMG) and Traffic.com Inc. (TRFC) -- will, effective March 31, join the Russell 2000 (RUT) , a common benchmark used by small-cap managers and index funds.
The large-capitalization Russell 1000 index won't add any IPOs this quarter, Russell said.
In 2004, Russell began adding IPOs to its stock benchmarks on a quarterly basis, rather than once a year at the annual reconstitution in June.

Traffic.com ist übrigens oben einer von zwei der insgesamt 27 IPO's die ausdrükcklich erwähnt werden. Der erfolgreichste IPO einer Internet Capital-Beteiligung war sicher der von Blackboard, wo Internet Capital noch ca. 2,1 Millionen Aktien hält, die einen Wert von ca. 60 Millionen Dollar haben. Und richtig abgehen dürfte die Post wenn der angekündigte nicht mehr in allzu ferner Zeit erfolgende IPO von Freeborders über die Bühne geht. Der Co-CEO hat eine Milliardenkapitalisierung in Aussicht gestellt. Internet Capital hält immerhin 33% an Freeborders.

Der erfolgreichste IPO einer Internet Capital-Beteiligung war sicher der von Blackboard, wo Internet Capital noch ca. 2,1 Millionen Aktien hält, die einen Wert von ca. 60 Millionen Dollar haben. Und richtig abgehen dürfte die Post wenn der angekündigte nicht mehr in allzu ferner Zeit erfolgende IPO von Freeborders über die Bühne geht. Der Co-CEO hat eine Milliardenkapitalisierung in Aussicht gestellt. Internet Capital hält immerhin 33% an Freeborders.

Softbank rauswerfen und rein in Internet Capital
Softbank und Internet Capital
Beide waren bekannte Highflyer des Internet-Booms im Jahre 2000, beide hatten eine Vielzahl von Beteiligungen. Inzwischen ist Softbank eigentlich eine simpler Telco, von dem man die Finger lassen sollte, weil sie fast zehnmal so hoch bewertet wird wie Telcos. Internet Capital ist aber nach wie vor eine Internet-Holding, die in 2005 ein absurdes KGV von 5 aufwies eine prall gefüllte IPO-Pipeline besitzt.
Wenn man den nachstehenden Quatsch im Aktionär liest, kann man sich nur an den Kopf packen: „ Mit der Übernahme der Vodafone-Tochter ist Softbank ein genialer Coup gelungen. Mit der Kombination von Internet, Festnetz und Mobilfunk ergeben sich hohe Synergien. Ein Haken ist die hohe Verschuldung. Risikobereite Anleger nutzen den drastischen Kursrückgang der vergangenen Monate zum Einstieg.“
Hier zur Ergänzung die Daten aus dem Aktionär, die das Vorstehende zur Lachnummer werden lassen:
Marktkapitalisierung: 22,4 Milliarden Dollar
Umsatz: 8,36 Milliarden Dollar
KGV 06: 107
Und hier einige Daten von Internet Capital:
Marktkapitalisierung: 360 Millionen
Cash und marktgängige Wertpapiere: 235 Millionen
Restverbindlichkeit aus Wandelschuldverschreibung: 37 Millionen
KGV 05: 5
Mein Rat an Softbankler:

Quatsch im Aktionär
Wenn die etwas empfehlen wird es sowieso Zeit den Absprung zu suchen.
