Educational film – September 2022 // Amazon buys one medical
The cloud and healthcare
We’ve talked a lot about Amazon and the big cloud players and their tendency to hide financial numbers that don’t show them at their best.
This time, we take a look at one medical, which has recently been battered both in the stock market and in its ethical and professional reputation.
The acquisition by a giant whose communication transparency is not the most obvious risks disimulating even more embarrassing realities.
We take a closer look…

00:00:07.600 --> 00:00:10.900
Hello and welcome to this film which is devoted to
2
00:00:10.900 --> 00:00:13.600
the pending acquisition of one medical
3
00:00:13.600 --> 00:00:14.800
by Amazon.
4
00:00:15.600 --> 00:00:18.500
Definitely there is no need to introduce the Amazon
5
00:00:18.500 --> 00:00:22.900
business model and the outstanding successful
6
00:00:21.900 --> 00:00:24.400
extension which
7
00:00:24.400 --> 00:00:27.700
is cloud computing and Amazon web services,
8
00:00:27.700 --> 00:00:30.600
but Amazon also tries to open new
9
00:00:30.600 --> 00:00:33.100
business Avenues and the consequence of that is
10
00:00:33.100 --> 00:00:36.400
plenty of quite significant acquisitions.

00:00:37.300 --> 00:00:40.800

17
00:00:56.900 --> 00:00:59.500
the movie business one medical
18
00:00:59.500 --> 00:01:02.600
3.5 billion dollars of
19
00:01:02.600 --> 00:01:05.900
Enterprise Value and recently announced
20
00:01:05.900 --> 00:01:09.000
in the cleaning and home care business. I Robot
21
00:01:08.500 --> 00:01:11.900
so you understand that. It's quite a significant list
22
00:01:11.900 --> 00:01:14.700
and I would like to Deep dive a little bit into the
23
00:01:14.700 --> 00:01:17.700
one medical acquisition. It was
24
00:01:17.700 --> 00:01:21.200
announced on the 20th of July since you're
25
00:01:21.200 --> 00:01:24.100
2022 Amazon is going to buy the
26
00:01:24.100 --> 00:01:27.500
company for an Enterprise value of 3.5 billion
27
00:01:27.500 --> 00:01:30.900
dollars the amount represents when Aaron 95
28
00:01:30.900 --> 00:01:33.700
million shares multiplied by 18 dollars
29
00:01:33.700 --> 00:01:36.100
companies proposing 18 dollars, and if you
30
00:01:36.100 --> 00:01:37.000
look at the stock,
31
00:01:37.200 --> 00:01:41.300
Step. It's a little bit lower than that. It's about 17.4
32
00:01:40.300 --> 00:01:43.600
dollars per share. Some people
33
00:01:43.600 --> 00:01:47.300
are questioning about the reaction of antitrust authorities
34
00:01:46.300 --> 00:01:49.100
will see how it works a little
35
00:01:49.100 --> 00:01:52.800
bit later one medical was founded in 2007 and
36
00:01:52.800 --> 00:01:56.300
the initial business is a chain of primary health
37
00:01:55.300 --> 00:01:58.600
care clinics. So not
38
00:01:58.600 --> 00:02:01.400
something very sophisticated but just
39
00:02:01.400 --> 00:02:05.300
simple stuff simple service offered
40
00:02:04.300 --> 00:02:07.600
to people then one medical developed
41
00:02:07.600 --> 00:02:10.400
another business, which is about paying a
42
00:02:10.400 --> 00:02:13.300
membership $200 per year so that you
43
00:02:13.300 --> 00:02:16.200
can have access to a doctor. This is
44
00:02:16.200 --> 00:02:19.300
why Financial Times title to
45
00:02:19.300 --> 00:02:23.400
announce Emma's own buys one medical is Alex get
46
00:02:22.400 --> 00:02:25.100
me a doctor. If you look at
47
00:02:25.100 --> 00:02:28.800
how one medical World Finals throughout the years the
48
00:02:28.800 --> 00:02:32.400
main investor was Carlisle in 2018, the
49
00:02:32.400 --> 00:02:35.700
company provided three Heron 350 million dollars, but
50
00:02:35.700 --> 00:02:36.800
the entire amount of
51
00:02:37.200 --> 00:02:40.300
Was no devoted to finance growth for one
52
00:02:40.300 --> 00:02:44.000
medical because when her 130 million dollars were devoted
53
00:02:43.100 --> 00:02:46.800
to secondary markets, which
54
00:02:46.800 --> 00:02:49.500
basically means that you buy the shares
55
00:02:49.500 --> 00:02:52.500
which are sold by other investors. So
56
00:02:52.500 --> 00:02:55.200
the Monet does not get into the bank account of the
57
00:02:55.200 --> 00:02:58.100
company. It goes into the bank account of the
58
00:02:58.100 --> 00:03:01.400
investors the other shareholders the total
59
00:03:01.400 --> 00:03:04.800
amount of money funding for one medical was
60
00:03:04.800 --> 00:03:07.200
a bit more than half a billion. So you understand that
61
00:03:07.200 --> 00:03:11.000
Caroline was a main provider, but it's
62
00:03:10.300 --> 00:03:14.000
not the only partner Google backed very
63
00:03:13.100 --> 00:03:16.800
much the evolution of one medical providing the
64
00:03:16.800 --> 00:03:18.900
Google Play application.
65
00:03:19.900 --> 00:03:23.000
Now you understand that one medical combines in
66
00:03:22.800 --> 00:03:25.900
person and online Health
67
00:03:25.900 --> 00:03:28.200
medical services. So you have
68
00:03:28.200 --> 00:03:31.200
the access to the clinic but you also have the access to the
69
00:03:31.200 --> 00:03:34.500
doctor. The company went public in January
70
00:03:34.500 --> 00:03:37.500
2020. What happens in then
71
00:03:37.500 --> 00:03:40.300
stock price is a little bit volatile at
72
00:03:40.300 --> 00:03:43.300
the very beginning then it goes up a little bit down and then
73
00:03:43.300 --> 00:03:46.900
dramatically up why coffee we all
74
00:03:46.900 --> 00:03:49.800
know plenty of companies including Zoom which
75
00:03:49.800 --> 00:03:52.800
we have very much boosted by online services
76
00:03:52.800 --> 00:03:55.000
and coffee. Then there is
77
00:03:55.200 --> 00:03:59.100
a very strong decline in the stock price part
78
00:03:58.100 --> 00:04:01.800
of it is because of misconduct of
79
00:04:01.800 --> 00:04:04.500
the company. I will go back to this point in
80
00:04:04.500 --> 00:04:07.100
a minute and stock price was divided by
81
00:04:07.100 --> 00:04:10.300
10 from a maximal 60 to a low point
82
00:04:10.300 --> 00:04:13.600
of six dollars then from six dollars to up
83
00:04:13.600 --> 00:04:16.200
to 10 dollars and the stock price today is very much
84
00:04:16.200 --> 00:04:19.200
driven by the Amazon offer know let's
85
00:04:19.200 --> 00:04:19.500
go back to the
86
00:04:19.800 --> 00:04:22.300
Size figures when the company is listed.
87
00:04:22.300 --> 00:04:25.700
The offered price is $14 opening 18
88
00:04:25.700 --> 00:04:28.800
closing 22. So it's
89
00:04:28.800 --> 00:04:31.300
plus 58% in one day
90
00:04:31.300 --> 00:04:34.200
from offered price to closing when the stock
91
00:04:34.200 --> 00:04:37.300
market is done by 2% this day. So you
92
00:04:37.300 --> 00:04:41.200
understand that the welcome of the market is extremely warm.
93
00:04:41.900 --> 00:04:44.300
Then the company stock price boosted by
94
00:04:44.300 --> 00:04:48.400
covid maximum will be arranged in February 2021
95
00:04:47.600 --> 00:04:50.300
$60 per share
96
00:04:50.300 --> 00:04:53.700
starting from 14 or 18. That's a
97
00:04:53.700 --> 00:04:56.500
fantastic track record while the stock
98
00:04:56.500 --> 00:04:59.700
price of one medical is declining in September
99
00:04:59.700 --> 00:05:02.900
2021 the company buys Euro,
100
00:05:02.900 --> 00:05:06.000
which is also in the health business providing
101
00:05:05.400 --> 00:05:09.300
services and simple Primary
102
00:05:08.300 --> 00:05:12.300
Care the population which
103
00:05:11.300 --> 00:05:14.400
is advised by this business is very much a
104
00:05:14.400 --> 00:05:17.200
Medicare population at that time
105
00:05:17.200 --> 00:05:20.500
steel. They are room or that one medical is not
106
00:05:20.500 --> 00:05:23.900
doing the right things for people and then
107
00:05:23.900 --> 00:05:26.300
it's going to be accused in the December
108
00:05:26.300 --> 00:05:29.900
2021 by the coronavirus subcommittee of
109
00:05:29.900 --> 00:05:32.200
unscrupulous conduct.
110
00:05:32.800 --> 00:05:35.800
And they were accused of making money
111
00:05:35.800 --> 00:05:39.100
instead of providing house. The consequence
112
00:05:38.100 --> 00:05:41.200
is as I said before that's a stock
113
00:05:41.200 --> 00:05:44.900
price is going to get to a lowest point, which is six dollars.
114
00:05:45.500 --> 00:05:49.200
Hardly getting to 10 and now 17 18
115
00:05:48.200 --> 00:05:51.200
because of Amazon. Of course,
116
00:05:51.200 --> 00:05:54.100
you can say that NASDAQ Evolution was a little
117
00:05:54.100 --> 00:05:57.200
bit couches last month. That's true. But if
118
00:05:57.200 --> 00:06:00.700
You observe the Benchmark between one medical
119
00:06:00.700 --> 00:06:03.800
and a NASDAQ since the IPO of
120
00:06:03.800 --> 00:06:06.400
one medical what do You observe You observe that
121
00:06:06.400 --> 00:06:09.500
is kind of continuation one medical
122
00:06:09.500 --> 00:06:12.400
and as Dax they go together, then you get to a
123
00:06:12.400 --> 00:06:16.000
high point at the end of 2020 beginning of
124
00:06:15.900 --> 00:06:19.300
2021 there after while NASDAQ
125
00:06:18.300 --> 00:06:21.400
is going to show some slow growth and
126
00:06:21.400 --> 00:06:24.500
then some difficulties one medical is
127
00:06:24.500 --> 00:06:28.300
collapsing gets to a little point and then goal slightly
128
00:06:27.300 --> 00:06:30.500
up. So you understand that is
129
00:06:30.500 --> 00:06:33.900
a correlation and then no correlation anymore if you
130
00:06:33.900 --> 00:06:36.600
can calculate the beta over the entire
131
00:06:36.600 --> 00:06:40.600
period you get a better which is 2.20 something
132
00:06:40.600 --> 00:06:43.700
but you understand that these parameter is absolutely
133
00:06:43.700 --> 00:06:45.100
meaningless because
134
00:06:45.500 --> 00:06:48.700
Have two sub periods. This is
135
00:06:48.700 --> 00:06:51.600
why a little bit later. I will calculate a
136
00:06:51.600 --> 00:06:54.700
much shorter beta in terms of time range.
137
00:06:54.700 --> 00:06:57.500
Now. There are a couple of events. It's a
138
00:06:57.500 --> 00:07:00.800
story of one medical which I'm going to use as example
139
00:07:00.800 --> 00:07:03.400
to illustrate something very important, which is
140
00:07:03.400 --> 00:07:06.400
information asymmetry. Let's make a
141
00:07:06.400 --> 00:07:09.500
couple of minutes discussing theory and practice about
142
00:07:09.500 --> 00:07:12.600
when you make an equity announcement what happens to
143
00:07:12.600 --> 00:07:15.500
Capital markets and the interpretation of
144
00:07:15.500 --> 00:07:19.100
what happens it's name information asymmetry,
145
00:07:18.100 --> 00:07:21.900
which basically says that shareholders. They
146
00:07:21.900 --> 00:07:24.400
don't know much about what the companies
147
00:07:24.400 --> 00:07:27.600
doing. They don't know much about the inside of
148
00:07:27.600 --> 00:07:30.200
the company. Oh they know about the past but what
149
00:07:30.200 --> 00:07:33.800
about the future not much is disclosed because very often
150
00:07:33.800 --> 00:07:37.200
it is regarded as fully confidential and
151
00:07:36.200 --> 00:07:39.500
it would be disclosed at the expense
152
00:07:39.500 --> 00:07:42.800
of shareholders as well. So the company is coming
153
00:07:42.800 --> 00:07:45.100
they can't think but without this
154
00:07:45.500 --> 00:07:48.700
Losing which is quite an issue because the shareholders
155
00:07:48.700 --> 00:07:52.200
did not know again that much about the real story
156
00:07:52.200 --> 00:07:55.800
inside the company among Financial events,
157
00:07:55.800 --> 00:07:58.400
which are really communication to
158
00:07:58.400 --> 00:08:02.900
the market the evolution of gearing adaptedness debt
159
00:08:01.900 --> 00:08:04.200
to equity debt to leverage
160
00:08:04.200 --> 00:08:07.300
the companies increasing debt. Why because
161
00:08:07.300 --> 00:08:11.400
the company feels very confident about the future or the
162
00:08:11.400 --> 00:08:14.100
capital is dead is increasing why because the company's making
163
00:08:14.100 --> 00:08:17.200
losses. This is exactly the same event. It's not
164
00:08:17.200 --> 00:08:20.700
exactly the same interpretation dividend policy. Do
165
00:08:20.700 --> 00:08:23.100
you stabilize a dividend you cut down
166
00:08:23.100 --> 00:08:26.600
the dividend do double the dividend why the nature
167
00:08:26.600 --> 00:08:30.200
of the fonts which are raised is also quite important. Do
168
00:08:29.200 --> 00:08:32.600
you is you dead do is you
169
00:08:32.600 --> 00:08:35.500
Equity. Do you hybrid convertible debt?
170
00:08:35.500 --> 00:08:38.900
We are going to discuss that again in a minute, but then
171
00:08:38.900 --> 00:08:41.200
you understand that the reaction of the market is going
172
00:08:41.200 --> 00:08:44.400
to be positive or negative depending on how
173
00:08:44.400 --> 00:08:45.000
the market is.
174
00:08:45.400 --> 00:08:48.700
Interpreting and what is very difficult is to
175
00:08:48.700 --> 00:08:51.800
interpret what the market is doing and transform
176
00:08:51.800 --> 00:08:54.500
that into a little bit of forecasting the day you
177
00:08:54.500 --> 00:08:57.800
decide to do something and communicate to the market. Let
178
00:08:57.800 --> 00:09:01.000
me give you an example to complete these theoretical
179
00:09:00.000 --> 00:09:01.800
input.

00:09:02.400 --> 00:09:05.700
Shares buy back. The company is buying its
181
00:09:05.700 --> 00:09:08.400
own chairs. How do you temper that there are
182
00:09:08.400 --> 00:09:11.100
two ways to interpret one is companies buying back
183
00:09:11.100 --> 00:09:14.300
the shares to return the cash to shareholders because the company
184
00:09:14.300 --> 00:09:18.100
has absolutely no project for the future or the board
185
00:09:17.100 --> 00:09:20.400
is deciding to buy back the
186
00:09:20.400 --> 00:09:23.400
shares why because the ball is absolutely convinced as
187
00:09:23.400 --> 00:09:26.400
a stock price should be merge higher than what it
188
00:09:26.400 --> 00:09:29.700
is. You have first a negative interpretation
189
00:09:29.700 --> 00:09:31.200
second positive one.
190
00:09:31.900 --> 00:09:34.400
How are you going to forecast the
191
00:09:34.400 --> 00:09:37.400
market interpretation? You can't now when the
192
00:09:37.400 --> 00:09:40.600
company's communicating and sending a signal
193
00:09:40.600 --> 00:09:43.300
to the market. We have one way to
194
00:09:43.300 --> 00:09:47.500
measure the impact that the method which is named abnormal returns.
195
00:09:48.200 --> 00:09:51.300
Five steps the first one is you calculate the
196
00:09:51.300 --> 00:09:54.700
beta which is a correlation between the stock price and Market
197
00:09:54.700 --> 00:09:57.300
Evolution you obver the market and
198
00:09:57.300 --> 00:10:00.900
you make the correlation a little bit before the even
199
00:10:00.900 --> 00:10:03.300
before the communication before the signal
200
00:10:03.300 --> 00:10:07.100
very often 20 days before then you
201
00:10:06.100 --> 00:10:09.800
observe the market Evolution after as
202
00:10:09.800 --> 00:10:13.000
you announcement after the signal 10 days
203
00:10:12.100 --> 00:10:15.600
after 20 days after then you
204
00:10:15.600 --> 00:10:18.300
can calculate the no more evolution of
205
00:10:18.300 --> 00:10:22.200
the stock price between before and after imagine
206
00:10:21.200 --> 00:10:24.800
that your beta is too imagine that
207
00:10:24.800 --> 00:10:28.700
the market is press 1.5% Your
208
00:10:27.700 --> 00:10:30.500
stock price should show us to
209
00:10:30.500 --> 00:10:33.200
times 1.5% which is
210
00:10:33.200 --> 00:10:36.200
plus three percent. This would be the normal evolution of
211
00:10:36.200 --> 00:10:36.900
your stock price.
212
00:10:37.800 --> 00:10:40.900
Then you can observe the actual evolution
213
00:10:40.900 --> 00:10:43.700
of your stock price and then you're going to compare the
214
00:10:43.700 --> 00:10:46.700
normal Evolution versus the actual
215
00:10:46.700 --> 00:10:49.300
one. Then you compare and you try
216
00:10:49.300 --> 00:10:53.000
to interpret why the market positively or negatively
217
00:10:52.800 --> 00:10:55.400
reacted to what you announced.
218
00:10:55.400 --> 00:10:59.000
I'm going to propose you two events to Communications
219
00:10:58.400 --> 00:11:01.800
to signals which are quite close
220
00:11:01.800 --> 00:11:02.300
to each other.
221
00:11:03.200 --> 00:11:06.900
The first one in May 2020 is when one
222
00:11:06.900 --> 00:11:09.800
medical is issuing a convertible node
223
00:11:09.800 --> 00:11:12.300
convertible Bond a few
224
00:11:12.300 --> 00:11:16.300
weeks later in June 2020 when some investors
225
00:11:15.300 --> 00:11:19.100
are addressing the secondary Market
226
00:11:18.100 --> 00:11:22.100
selling their shares to other investors.
227
00:11:21.100 --> 00:11:24.400
Let's have a look at these two.
228
00:11:24.400 --> 00:11:27.800
Even the first one is one medical issues
229
00:11:27.800 --> 00:11:30.500
a convertible note. We are in May 2020.
230
00:11:31.400 --> 00:11:34.400
The amount of money which is raised is 300 million dollars.
231
00:11:34.400 --> 00:11:37.500
So total amounts of fonts raised is
232
00:11:37.500 --> 00:11:40.400
300 million dollars and the nominal of each
233
00:11:40.400 --> 00:11:43.400
and every Bond standing alone is 1000 dollars.
234
00:11:43.400 --> 00:11:46.400
The coupon is 3% The maturity is
235
00:11:46.400 --> 00:11:49.400
20 25, so it's a five-year bomb.
236
00:11:50.200 --> 00:11:53.600
A convertible Bond a convertible note is a bond which
237
00:11:53.600 --> 00:11:56.200
you can convert and so the question is
238
00:11:56.200 --> 00:11:59.300
in how many shares this is named the conversion rate which is
239
00:11:59.300 --> 00:12:02.700
a fundamental parameter in any convertible issue
240
00:12:02.700 --> 00:12:06.000
20 2.5. Oh
241
00:12:05.200 --> 00:12:08.600
five two, which means that at the maturity
242
00:12:08.600 --> 00:12:11.700
you can decide to ask for your money back
243
00:12:11.700 --> 00:12:14.300
1,000 or you can ask
244
00:12:14.300 --> 00:12:17.700
for the conversion of your bone into 22 dot
245
00:12:17.700 --> 00:12:20.300
five shares issued at
246
00:12:20.300 --> 00:12:23.600
that time. There are a couple of interesting calculations to
247
00:12:23.600 --> 00:12:27.100
make out of that first you look at the currents the
248
00:12:26.100 --> 00:12:30.100
price when the bone is easier. It is 32.3
249
00:12:29.100 --> 00:12:33.600
dollars. There are a couple of immediate calculations
250
00:12:32.600 --> 00:12:35.600
which are quite interesting and
251
00:12:35.600 --> 00:12:38.400
relevant for any convertible born issue first
252
00:12:38.400 --> 00:12:41.800
calculation. You pay one thousand dollars. Are
253
00:12:41.800 --> 00:12:44.700
you going to convert the bone immediately? If
254
00:12:44.700 --> 00:12:48.000
you convert you'll get 22.5 shares
255
00:12:47.500 --> 00:12:50.000
you can sell the shares at
256
00:12:50.100 --> 00:12:53.200
2.3 jars per share how much you get into
257
00:12:53.200 --> 00:12:56.200
your pocket? 727 so of course
258
00:12:56.200 --> 00:12:59.100
you're not going to do it because you're not going
259
00:12:59.100 --> 00:13:04.100
to pay 1,000 to get 727 in
260
00:13:02.100 --> 00:13:05.700
finance. We say that the option
261
00:13:05.700 --> 00:13:08.500
the convertibility option is out of
262
00:13:08.500 --> 00:13:11.500
the money. There's absolutely no real motivation
263
00:13:11.500 --> 00:13:13.400
to exercise the option today.
264
00:13:14.200 --> 00:13:17.700
But there will be a motivation to exercise later is
265
00:13:17.700 --> 00:13:20.500
a stock price is up. Then we can calculate
266
00:13:20.500 --> 00:13:23.700
the kind of break even your pet 1,000
267
00:13:23.700 --> 00:13:26.600
and you will get if you exercise a
268
00:13:26.600 --> 00:13:29.300
conversion right 22.5 shares so you
269
00:13:29.300 --> 00:13:32.400
understand that if they're value of the share is
270
00:13:32.400 --> 00:13:36.200
minimum 44.4 dollars, then
271
00:13:35.200 --> 00:13:38.300
it's going to be a motivation to
272
00:13:38.300 --> 00:13:42.100
convert instead of asking for the 1,000
273
00:13:41.100 --> 00:13:44.100
back. This is a break even and the
274
00:13:44.100 --> 00:13:47.700
Breakeven was rich in generate 2021 and
275
00:13:47.700 --> 00:13:50.100
beyond that because you remember that the stock price
276
00:13:50.100 --> 00:13:53.300
went to a high point of 16 hours. So
277
00:13:53.300 --> 00:13:56.100
if you get back to the graph, you understand the stock price
278
00:13:56.100 --> 00:13:59.300
is up. There is an opportunity the market is ready.
279
00:13:59.300 --> 00:14:02.700
I need to know Paul Tunis stick issue,
280
00:14:02.700 --> 00:14:05.700
which is to issue the convertible bone today. The
281
00:14:05.700 --> 00:14:08.100
question is what does it communicate to the
282
00:14:08.100 --> 00:14:11.400
investors? What is going to be there interpretation and
283
00:14:11.400 --> 00:14:14.000
their reaction to this communication? Let's go.
284
00:14:14.100 --> 00:14:17.400
a minute on the motivations for a company to
285
00:14:17.400 --> 00:14:18.900
issue a convertible Bond
286
00:14:19.400 --> 00:14:22.400
a convertible ball is a straight Bond, press the
287
00:14:22.400 --> 00:14:25.400
option to convert so call option because you have
288
00:14:25.400 --> 00:14:28.600
the right to buy stocks. Of course,
289
00:14:28.600 --> 00:14:31.200
you don't get the same coupon as if you
290
00:14:31.200 --> 00:14:34.700
had invested in a straight Bond why because
291
00:14:34.700 --> 00:14:37.300
in addition to the straight ball, you have the right to
292
00:14:37.300 --> 00:14:40.200
convert so you get the lower coupon and the difference between
293
00:14:40.200 --> 00:14:43.300
the straight Coupe and the convertible coupon is a
294
00:14:43.300 --> 00:14:46.200
premium you pay to have the right to convert. This
295
00:14:46.200 --> 00:14:49.500
is named the option premium for the
296
00:14:49.500 --> 00:14:52.500
company. It's absolutely great. Why because
297
00:14:52.500 --> 00:14:55.400
you have a lower work coupons, but you are going
298
00:14:55.400 --> 00:14:58.900
to postpone and reduce dilution. Why do
299
00:14:58.900 --> 00:14:59.800
you postpone delusion?
300
00:15:00.500 --> 00:15:03.600
Simply because when you issue the bone, nobody has
301
00:15:03.600 --> 00:15:06.500
any motivation to convert the bond into
302
00:15:06.500 --> 00:15:09.500
shares the option is out of the money and
303
00:15:09.500 --> 00:15:13.700
you remember that you are not going to prefer 727 to
304
00:15:13.700 --> 00:15:17.200
1,000. So you are going to convert later
305
00:15:16.200 --> 00:15:19.400
when the option becomes
306
00:15:19.400 --> 00:15:22.500
in the morning and you're speaking at maturity.
307
00:15:22.500 --> 00:15:25.300
So your postponed delusion in addition to that
308
00:15:25.300 --> 00:15:28.400
the day you actually convert the
309
00:15:28.400 --> 00:15:32.000
bond. How many shares are you going to issue? 22.5?
310
00:15:32.800 --> 00:15:35.500
Imagine that you consider the alternative which
311
00:15:35.500 --> 00:15:38.100
is to issue shares today. How many
312
00:15:38.100 --> 00:15:41.500
shares are you going to issue in order to get $1,000?
313
00:15:42.300 --> 00:15:45.200
The starting point The Benchmark is a current stock price,
314
00:15:45.200 --> 00:15:48.300
which is 32.3 dollars. You remember that the
315
00:15:48.300 --> 00:15:51.900
day you want to issue as you will have to offer a discount. So the
316
00:15:51.900 --> 00:15:54.900
new Shares are going to be issue that less than
317
00:15:54.900 --> 00:15:58.100
32.3 dollars maybe 30 dollars.
318
00:15:57.100 --> 00:16:00.300
And then in order to get $1,000
319
00:16:00.300 --> 00:16:03.800
you will have to issue 30 three shares. So you
320
00:16:03.800 --> 00:16:06.500
will have to if you significantly more than 30 shares
321
00:16:06.500 --> 00:16:10.000
today instead of 22.5 tomorrow
322
00:16:09.000 --> 00:16:12.500
you postpone and
323
00:16:12.500 --> 00:16:15.600
you're reduced delusion. Which kind of signal do
324
00:16:15.600 --> 00:16:18.500
you send to the market? You say? Okay guys, you're buying
325
00:16:18.500 --> 00:16:21.600
the bone today and you will convert tomorrow, but
326
00:16:21.600 --> 00:16:24.500
you will convert because it's stock price will go up
327
00:16:24.500 --> 00:16:27.600
and that's an extremely positive signal.
328
00:16:28.600 --> 00:16:31.700
But then the investors might also tell you why don't
329
00:16:31.700 --> 00:16:34.700
you issue straight there today, which you
330
00:16:34.700 --> 00:16:37.500
are going to repay tomorrow when
331
00:16:37.500 --> 00:16:40.500
the stock price is up issuing shares
332
00:16:40.500 --> 00:16:43.300
tomorrow at The Benchmark, which is a much
333
00:16:43.300 --> 00:16:46.900
higher stock price. So you understand there's a little bit of ambiguity in
334
00:16:46.900 --> 00:16:49.600
the signal. Of course, you could argue that in
335
00:16:49.600 --> 00:16:52.100
a case of one medical it's very difficult to
336
00:16:52.100 --> 00:16:55.500
issue straight that because itself is
337
00:16:55.500 --> 00:16:58.100
negative. So there is no need to add and
338
00:16:58.100 --> 00:17:01.600
pile up a huge amount of interest expense when they
339
00:17:01.600 --> 00:17:04.400
be that is already not able to pay the
340
00:17:04.400 --> 00:17:07.600
depreciation and amortization. Now the company made these
341
00:17:07.600 --> 00:17:10.600
you and why did we observe in order to cancel the
342
00:17:10.600 --> 00:17:13.200
abnormal return? The first thing we have to do is to calculate
343
00:17:13.200 --> 00:17:16.600
the beta shortly before the announcement and the
344
00:17:16.600 --> 00:17:19.300
beta is 1.6, which is quite different from
345
00:17:19.300 --> 00:17:22.700
the 2.20 something we observe for the entire period
346
00:17:22.700 --> 00:17:25.800
This one is much more relevant for abnormal returns
347
00:17:25.800 --> 00:17:28.100
10 days after the publication of the
348
00:17:28.500 --> 00:17:31.600
Vertical node prospectus so NASDAQ is
349
00:17:31.600 --> 00:17:34.700
a by one point. Oh four percent the normal
350
00:17:34.700 --> 00:17:37.900
evolution of the stock price of one medical should
351
00:17:37.900 --> 00:17:41.900
have been 1.6 times 1.04, which
352
00:17:41.900 --> 00:17:45.400
is plus 1.67. Now
353
00:17:44.400 --> 00:17:47.500
You observe the actual return over
354
00:17:47.500 --> 00:17:51.200
the period and it's minus 8.64%
355
00:17:52.100 --> 00:17:56.200
So you understand that the abnormal return which is the actual minus
356
00:17:55.200 --> 00:18:00.300
the normal is minus 8.64 minus
357
00:17:59.300 --> 00:18:02.200
1.67, which is
358
00:18:02.200 --> 00:18:05.700
a gap of 10.3 percent. So
359
00:18:05.700 --> 00:18:08.800
you understand that the market reaction is quite negative.
360
00:18:08.800 --> 00:18:11.300
You can argue that maybe 10 days is
361
00:18:11.300 --> 00:18:14.200
not long enough as a period you look at 20 days
362
00:18:14.200 --> 00:18:17.500
same conclusion now, how can we interpret this
363
00:18:17.500 --> 00:18:19.900
negative reaction by the market?
364
00:18:20.700 --> 00:18:23.600
The last official and financial communication we
365
00:18:23.600 --> 00:18:26.600
get from the company is a tank you
366
00:18:26.600 --> 00:18:30.500
report quarterly report first quarter 2020
367
00:18:29.500 --> 00:18:32.500
and the balance sheet
368
00:18:32.500 --> 00:18:35.700
shows cash at Bank of 375 million dollars,
369
00:18:35.700 --> 00:18:38.600
which is quite significant when the
370
00:18:38.600 --> 00:18:42.600
company was listed its raised 245 million
371
00:18:42.600 --> 00:18:45.800
plus a cash at bank at that time minus a
372
00:18:45.800 --> 00:18:48.800
cash which was consumed in a mean time is 3
373
00:18:48.800 --> 00:18:50.500
and 75 million.
374
00:18:51.400 --> 00:18:54.600
Now if you look at the operating cash flow for this first quarter
375
00:18:54.600 --> 00:18:57.600
2020, the company consumes in its
376
00:18:57.600 --> 00:19:00.500
business operations, 13 million and the company
377
00:19:00.500 --> 00:19:04.200
is investing Capital expenditures for the future 20 million.
378
00:19:03.200 --> 00:19:06.300
So the cash out is
379
00:19:06.300 --> 00:19:08.700
minus 33 million dollars.
380
00:19:09.500 --> 00:19:12.400
But then as you have 375 million
381
00:19:12.400 --> 00:19:16.000
dollars in the bank account, you can quote survive
382
00:19:15.200 --> 00:19:18.000
during at least 11 quarters.
383
00:19:19.900 --> 00:19:22.800
What's probably not true because in the future as a
384
00:19:22.800 --> 00:19:25.100
company is growing more cash is going to
385
00:19:25.100 --> 00:19:26.100
be needed.
386
00:19:26.700 --> 00:19:29.400
But you could consider that maybe the
387
00:19:29.400 --> 00:19:32.800
375 are needed. Maybe not
388
00:19:32.800 --> 00:19:35.300
now the market concluded that it was
389
00:19:35.300 --> 00:19:37.000
a negative signal.
390
00:19:38.100 --> 00:19:41.900
It's just an opinion Saigon event a
391
00:19:41.900 --> 00:19:45.200
few weeks later June 2020. The
392
00:19:44.200 --> 00:19:49.000
stock price is back to 31.8 dollars
393
00:19:48.700 --> 00:19:51.400
and the company's announcing that
394
00:19:51.400 --> 00:19:54.800
some critical investors some fundamental investors
395
00:19:54.800 --> 00:19:57.100
including Caroline are going to
396
00:19:57.100 --> 00:19:58.300
sell shares.
397
00:19:58.800 --> 00:20:01.400
But they are going to sell their shares on the secondary
398
00:20:01.400 --> 00:20:04.600
Market to other institutional or private
399
00:20:04.600 --> 00:20:07.100
investors. This shareholders are going to
400
00:20:07.100 --> 00:20:10.900
sell 8.3 million shares Carlisle represents
401
00:20:10.900 --> 00:20:14.600
7.5 out of the 8.3. No
402
00:20:13.600 --> 00:20:16.000
additional cash in the bank account of the
403
00:20:16.400 --> 00:20:19.700
company because it's about shareholders selling to shareholders.
404
00:20:21.100 --> 00:20:25.200
If you look at the premon evaluation when Carlisle
405
00:20:24.200 --> 00:20:27.500
invested in one medical it
406
00:20:27.500 --> 00:20:31.300
was 1.3 billion the value
407
00:20:30.300 --> 00:20:33.400
of the company when Carlisle is
408
00:20:33.400 --> 00:20:36.100
selling its shares. It's 4 billion
409
00:20:36.100 --> 00:20:40.000
dollars. We just the same number of shares at
410
00:20:39.100 --> 00:20:42.900
the end of the day. It means that the value was multiplied
411
00:20:42.900 --> 00:20:45.700
by three and that's a quite
412
00:20:45.700 --> 00:20:48.400
nice internal rate of return. It's now
413
00:20:48.400 --> 00:20:51.500
calculate the abnormal returns. We need a beta
414
00:20:51.500 --> 00:20:54.100
1.54 not that far from the
415
00:20:54.100 --> 00:20:57.400
1.60, but it was just a few days later
416
00:20:57.400 --> 00:21:00.500
NASDAQ 10 days after the publication
417
00:21:00.500 --> 00:21:05.500
of the prospectus plus 6% 6.44% The
418
00:21:04.500 --> 00:21:09.700
normal return should have been 1.54 beta
419
00:21:08.700 --> 00:21:11.700
times NASDAQ upside
420
00:21:11.700 --> 00:21:14.200
6.44. It should
421
00:21:14.200 --> 00:21:17.800
have been plus 10% The actual return is all
422
00:21:17.800 --> 00:21:20.700
most plus 26% So the
423
00:21:21.100 --> 00:21:25.300
More returns 26 minus 10 is plus 16% So
424
00:21:24.300 --> 00:21:27.800
you understand that the market very
425
00:21:27.800 --> 00:21:31.100
positively interpreted this move.
426
00:21:30.100 --> 00:21:33.300
Do you understand that the reaction of the market
427
00:21:33.300 --> 00:21:36.300
was quite positive which might be a
428
00:21:36.300 --> 00:21:39.500
little bit of a surprise when you're interpret that considering that
429
00:21:39.500 --> 00:21:42.500
the investors the Insiders are simply
430
00:21:42.500 --> 00:21:43.700
leaving the boat.
431
00:21:44.500 --> 00:21:47.700
If they sell their shares, it's probably because the
432
00:21:47.700 --> 00:21:50.500
considers that you are getting to a high point and
433
00:21:50.500 --> 00:21:52.800
there is not much of side potential.
434
00:21:53.500 --> 00:21:56.700
The reaction should be negative and it's
435
00:21:56.700 --> 00:21:57.400
quite positive.
436
00:21:58.200 --> 00:22:01.500
Difficult to interpret now. Let's back a minute to the
437
00:22:01.500 --> 00:22:02.000
deal.
438
00:22:02.600 --> 00:22:06.200
What is the business rationality of Amazon Amazon created
439
00:22:05.200 --> 00:22:09.300
Amazon care in 2019 Amazon
440
00:22:08.300 --> 00:22:12.400
Pharmacy in 2020. The
441
00:22:11.400 --> 00:22:14.200
Apple watch is something
442
00:22:14.200 --> 00:22:17.400
which is very useful in order to get information about your
443
00:22:17.400 --> 00:22:20.400
health. And then one medical is
444
00:22:20.400 --> 00:22:23.600
in a direct line of this strategic
445
00:22:23.600 --> 00:22:26.500
intent. This Market is quite huge. It's
446
00:22:26.500 --> 00:22:29.600
estimated more than four trillion
447
00:22:29.600 --> 00:22:33.100
dollars per year. What is as huge
448
00:22:32.100 --> 00:22:36.600
at the market is customer dissatisfaction.
449
00:22:35.600 --> 00:22:38.400
So when a business
450
00:22:38.400 --> 00:22:41.600
is very big and the consumers and the customers
451
00:22:41.600 --> 00:22:44.500
are not happy. There's a potential entry.
452
00:22:45.400 --> 00:22:48.800
In the meantime these big players on
453
00:22:48.800 --> 00:22:51.700
the market the Private health insurance such
454
00:22:51.700 --> 00:22:54.400
as humania and so on so forth. We are
455
00:22:54.400 --> 00:22:57.300
making quite a lot of profits some people they say
456
00:22:57.300 --> 00:23:00.400
they make too much profit. So it's a
457
00:23:00.400 --> 00:23:03.800
profitable business. It's a very big business and there
458
00:23:03.800 --> 00:23:06.400
are some potential entry. So you understand that
459
00:23:06.400 --> 00:23:09.800
hamad's own could introduce some disruption in
460
00:23:09.800 --> 00:23:12.200
this market. Of course
461
00:23:12.200 --> 00:23:16.300
one medical is not a great star the company
462
00:23:15.300 --> 00:23:18.400
sales quarter after quarter is
463
00:23:18.400 --> 00:23:21.200
gently moving up then it's up because
464
00:23:21.200 --> 00:23:24.500
of covid then it's stabilizing and then during the
465
00:23:24.500 --> 00:23:27.400
last two quarters the company is showing some girls because of
466
00:23:27.400 --> 00:23:30.400
the acquisition of your but it's not very much
467
00:23:30.400 --> 00:23:33.900
fast growing. What about the metrics of
468
00:23:33.900 --> 00:23:37.100
one medical just before the announcement was
469
00:23:36.100 --> 00:23:39.700
made by Amazon second quarter
470
00:23:39.700 --> 00:23:42.700
2022 quarterly revenues
471
00:23:42.700 --> 00:23:44.900
to 250 million. Why?
472
00:23:45.300 --> 00:23:48.600
Because it's a traditional business plus the acquisition of
473
00:23:48.600 --> 00:23:51.400
Europe. I just did a
474
00:23:51.400 --> 00:23:54.800
bit that so you start with the a bit you add the Precision
475
00:23:54.800 --> 00:23:58.200
amortization you add back stock-based
476
00:23:57.200 --> 00:24:01.100
compensations, you get rid of some non-recuring
477
00:24:00.100 --> 00:24:04.000
items and you get something which is quite negative minus
478
00:24:03.400 --> 00:24:05.600
38 million.
479
00:24:06.700 --> 00:24:09.400
This is Cash which is consumed by the p&l and
480
00:24:09.400 --> 00:24:12.300
cash which is consumed by the cash flow statement is capital
481
00:24:12.300 --> 00:24:15.600
expenditures, which is 34 million. By the
482
00:24:15.600 --> 00:24:18.500
way, if you some these two figures what
483
00:24:18.500 --> 00:24:21.700
you get a cash consumption of 73 million
484
00:24:21.700 --> 00:24:24.600
dollars, then you understand that the convertible born
485
00:24:24.600 --> 00:24:27.100
is you would probably a good idea
486
00:24:27.100 --> 00:24:30.300
last but not least you look at the evolution of the number of
487
00:24:30.300 --> 00:24:33.700
members of membership customers and
488
00:24:33.700 --> 00:24:36.700
you see that it is slow grows and not
489
00:24:36.700 --> 00:24:39.300
that very quick grows. So you understand that
490
00:24:39.300 --> 00:24:42.400
I'm a zone is going to try to use its own talent
491
00:24:42.400 --> 00:24:45.800
to boost driving use and create value out
492
00:24:45.800 --> 00:24:48.400
of that. But what do we know about
493
00:24:48.400 --> 00:24:52.200
Amazon talent for past Acquisitions
494
00:24:51.200 --> 00:24:54.500
and your businesses, which we're created
495
00:24:54.500 --> 00:24:57.600
all we have some information about the cloud. We
496
00:24:57.600 --> 00:25:00.400
have plenty of information about Amazon web
497
00:25:00.400 --> 00:25:04.000
services starting in 2013.
498
00:25:05.100 --> 00:25:08.200
And before we had nothing, but if you look at the evolution of
499
00:25:08.200 --> 00:25:11.400
sales and revenues and operating income of Amazon
500
00:25:11.400 --> 00:25:14.300
web services since a moment, we have
501
00:25:14.300 --> 00:25:17.500
the figures you understand that it is a tremendous success
502
00:25:17.500 --> 00:25:20.800
today after some stabilizations of
503
00:25:20.800 --> 00:25:23.800
the business economics You observe that North
504
00:25:23.800 --> 00:25:27.300
American operations represents almost 60%
505
00:25:26.300 --> 00:25:30.100
of the revenues International operations
506
00:25:29.100 --> 00:25:32.600
less than 30 and Amazon web
507
00:25:32.600 --> 00:25:35.400
services a little bit more than 10 now, when
508
00:25:35.400 --> 00:25:38.400
you move to the contribution not to revenues but to operate
509
00:25:38.400 --> 00:25:41.700
income you understand that the start Amazon is
510
00:25:41.700 --> 00:25:45.400
definitely Amazon web services. This
511
00:25:44.400 --> 00:25:47.800
is why you have to disclose the p&l
512
00:25:47.800 --> 00:25:50.800
and the balance sheet and information in a separate
513
00:25:50.800 --> 00:25:53.900
segment, which was open to Amazon web
514
00:25:53.900 --> 00:25:55.900
services almost 10 years ago.
515
00:25:56.800 --> 00:25:59.500
Now what about the ulcers you remember?
516
00:25:59.500 --> 00:26:02.300
I mentioned Acquisitions 13 billion something
517
00:26:02.300 --> 00:26:05.700
for World Foods twitch Zappos and
518
00:26:05.700 --> 00:26:08.100
so on so forth which information do you get
519
00:26:08.100 --> 00:26:11.800
in the annual report? Nothing they are hardly
520
00:26:11.800 --> 00:26:14.800
mentioned you have no figures about sales
521
00:26:14.800 --> 00:26:17.400
revenues profit cash flow the
522
00:26:17.400 --> 00:26:20.500
value of Goodwills value of brands or whatsoever.
523
00:26:20.500 --> 00:26:23.200
The only financial communication will recently got
524
00:26:23.200 --> 00:26:26.200
about an equity stake of Amazon is about
525
00:26:26.200 --> 00:26:29.200
rivian. Why because the stock price
526
00:26:29.200 --> 00:26:32.400
dramatically dropped and the company
527
00:26:32.400 --> 00:26:35.800
had to show a right off of 11.5 billion
528
00:26:35.800 --> 00:26:38.300
dollars and it's books why because
529
00:26:38.300 --> 00:26:41.500
the stock price went down to 32 dollars. This is
530
00:26:41.500 --> 00:26:44.800
the online information we get of course Amazon is
531
00:26:44.800 --> 00:26:47.500
a significant contributor of review and shares
532
00:26:47.500 --> 00:26:50.400
the company holds about 18% of the
533
00:26:50.400 --> 00:26:53.900
shares one hand and 58 million shares, which
534
00:26:53.900 --> 00:26:56.300
is quite significant when you multiply that by
535
00:26:56.700 --> 00:26:59.800
Two dollars per share Amazon participated to
536
00:26:59.800 --> 00:27:02.400
the equity issues in 2019. First one
537
00:27:02.400 --> 00:27:06.000
in 2019 the second one in 2020. So
538
00:27:05.400 --> 00:27:08.500
the company definitely is a support and
539
00:27:08.500 --> 00:27:12.000
they announced that they are going to buy 100,000 rivian
540
00:27:11.800 --> 00:27:14.100
cars minivans was there
541
00:27:14.100 --> 00:27:17.800
delivery supply chain and Logistics. So this
542
00:27:17.800 --> 00:27:20.600
is quite an involvement, but it's interesting to
543
00:27:20.600 --> 00:27:23.600
look at the price at which rivian issue
544
00:27:23.600 --> 00:27:27.000
the shares before the listing the maximum was
545
00:27:26.100 --> 00:27:29.500
for 2020 and it's about 15 dollars.
546
00:27:30.300 --> 00:27:33.500
So of course today Amazon is showing a write-off
547
00:27:33.500 --> 00:27:37.200
but you know what, they paid maximum 15
548
00:27:36.200 --> 00:27:39.300
and today's worth twice as much
549
00:27:39.300 --> 00:27:43.100
no big deal. What about the other business Avenues?
550
00:27:42.100 --> 00:27:46.300
No information Amazon communication
551
00:27:45.300 --> 00:27:48.600
is extremely Limited.
552
00:27:49.400 --> 00:27:52.100
You show a segment when it's very
553
00:27:52.100 --> 00:27:55.400
big and when it's very profitable it's a case
554
00:27:55.400 --> 00:27:58.500
of Amazon web services before it
555
00:27:58.500 --> 00:28:01.600
becomes big and profitable you hide everything you
556
00:28:01.600 --> 00:28:04.800
show nothing. Is it good or bad management?
557
00:28:06.500 --> 00:28:09.500
I would like to conclude this film with a
558
00:28:09.500 --> 00:28:12.600
provocative question should companies be
559
00:28:12.600 --> 00:28:16.300
transpared. Of course. They also we are transparents and
560
00:28:16.300 --> 00:28:18.300
so forth. Should there be transparent?
561
00:28:19.200 --> 00:28:22.400
Amazon is very transparent when the business is very
562
00:28:22.400 --> 00:28:26.400
profitable and very successful Cloud Amazon
563
00:28:25.400 --> 00:28:28.300
web services, but when
564
00:28:28.300 --> 00:28:31.400
you are building business Avenues and you are making
565
00:28:31.400 --> 00:28:34.100
some risky experiments some are going to
566
00:28:34.100 --> 00:28:37.400
be winners. Some are going to be losers. Is it good
567
00:28:37.400 --> 00:28:40.400
news? Is it good idea? Is it good management to raise
568
00:28:40.400 --> 00:28:43.700
analyst attention If You observe the
569
00:28:43.700 --> 00:28:46.700
behavior of some cell side financial analysis,
570
00:28:46.700 --> 00:28:48.900
they have to demonstrate that's the exist.
571
00:28:50.100 --> 00:28:54.800
So they have a kind of motivation to show some punchline analysis
572
00:28:53.800 --> 00:28:56.400
and criticism about the
573
00:28:56.400 --> 00:28:59.800
company the forget about what Amazon is they
574
00:28:59.800 --> 00:29:02.600
forget about the track record the forget about Amazon web services
575
00:29:02.600 --> 00:29:05.000
and say oh in the pharmacy business, they are not doing
576
00:29:05.200 --> 00:29:08.000
well in the streaming business Etc. So if you
577
00:29:08.100 --> 00:29:11.200
want to open the door to this kind of criticism you are going
578
00:29:11.200 --> 00:29:14.600
to be very transparent and you say oh here we have a problem.
579
00:29:14.600 --> 00:29:17.600
No, don't do it. This is why Amazon
580
00:29:17.600 --> 00:29:20.500
is absolutely not transparent of
581
00:29:20.500 --> 00:29:23.300
all its business experiments.
582
00:29:24.200 --> 00:29:25.100
And that's it.
583
00:29:25.700 --> 00:29:28.900
And you understand that one of the reasons backings is
584
00:29:28.900 --> 00:29:31.400
decision is that it's so difficult
585
00:29:31.400 --> 00:29:34.300
to understand how the market is going to
586
00:29:34.300 --> 00:29:38.200
react to control this kind of Market Behavior
587
00:29:37.200 --> 00:29:40.300
very difficult to interpret very
588
00:29:40.300 --> 00:29:44.100
difficult to forecast. So what do you say nothing? So
589
00:29:43.100 --> 00:29:46.600
you understand that as far as one medical
590
00:29:46.600 --> 00:29:50.500
is concerned but Amazon care Amazon Pharmacy the
591
00:29:49.500 --> 00:29:52.500
watch and so on so forth
592
00:29:52.500 --> 00:29:54.900
all these Health Care applications
593
00:29:55.800 --> 00:29:58.700
The one and unique relevant question is not what
594
00:29:58.700 --> 00:30:01.500
are they doing at the moment, but when will the
595
00:30:01.500 --> 00:30:05.000
market segment be created and disclose any
596
00:30:04.000 --> 00:30:05.500
accounts?
597
00:30:06.200 --> 00:30:09.600
Before that forget about being informed now you
598
00:30:09.600 --> 00:30:13.600
remember that in this film I discussed about information asymmetry.
599
00:30:14.500 --> 00:30:17.400
How do you observe the impact of this information
600
00:30:17.400 --> 00:30:20.700
asymmetry when you send a signal when you communicate
601
00:30:20.700 --> 00:30:23.500
on something abnormal returns? How do
602
00:30:23.500 --> 00:30:26.400
you interpret abnormal returns? You understand
603
00:30:26.400 --> 00:30:29.700
that it's extremely difficult and forecasting is
604
00:30:29.700 --> 00:30:31.200
definitely an issue.
605
00:30:31.900 --> 00:30:34.300
So with information a symmetry and
606
00:30:34.300 --> 00:30:38.300
the difficulty to interpret abnormal returns and Signal Unison,
607
00:30:37.300 --> 00:30:41.200
that investing is really a
608
00:30:40.200 --> 00:30:43.600
tough job together with being a
609
00:30:43.600 --> 00:30:46.100
financial analyst or a company listed on
610
00:30:46.100 --> 00:30:47.000
a capital markets.
Hello and welcome to this film which is devoted to the pending acquisition of one medical by Amazon.
Definitely there is no need to introduce the Amazon business model and the outstanding successful extension which is cloud computing and Amazon web services, but Amazon also tries to open new business Avenues and the consequence of that is plenty of quite significant acquisitions.
2009 Zappos 1.2 billion then Twitch streaming woolfoods food distribution pill pack Pharmacy Amazon care Amazon Pharmacy zukes in the self-driving, of course MGM to complement Amazon Prime in the movie business one medical 3.5 billion dollars of Enterprise Value and recently announced in the cleaning and home care business.
I Robot so you understand that.
It's quite a significant list and I would like to Deep dive a little bit into the one medical acquisition.
It was announced on the 20th of July since you're 2022 Amazon is going to buy the company for an Enterprise value of 3.5 billion dollars the amount represents when Aaron 95 million shares multiplied by 18 dollars companies proposing 18 dollars, and if you look at the stock, Step.
It's a little bit lower than that.
It's about 17.4 dollars per share.
Some people are questioning about the reaction of antitrust authorities will see how it works a little bit later one medical was founded in 2007 and the initial business is a chain of primary health care clinics.
So not something very sophisticated but just simple stuff simple service offered to people then one medical developed another business, which is about paying a membership $200 per year so that you can have access to a doctor.
This is why Financial Times title to announce Emma's own buys one medical is Alex get me a doctor.
If you look at how one medical World Finals throughout the years the main investor was Carlisle in 2018, the company provided three Heron 350 million dollars, but the entire amount of Was no devoted to finance growth for one medical because when her 130 million dollars were devoted to secondary markets, which basically means that you buy the shares which are sold by other investors.
So the Monet does not get into the bank account of the company.
It goes into the bank account of the investors the other shareholders the total amount of money funding for one medical was a bit more than half a billion.
So you understand that Caroline was a main provider, but it's not the only partner Google backed very much the evolution of one medical providing the Google Play application.
Now you understand that one medical combines in person and online Health medical services.
So you have the access to the clinic but you also have the access to the doctor.
The company went public in January 2020.
What happens in then stock price is a little bit volatile at the very beginning then it goes up a little bit down and then dramatically up why coffee we all know plenty of companies including Zoom which we have very much boosted by online services and coffee.
Then there is a very strong decline in the stock price part of it is because of misconduct of the company.
I will go back to this point in a minute and stock price was divided by 10 from a maximal 60 to a low point of six dollars then from six dollars to up to 10 dollars and the stock price today is very much driven by the Amazon offer know let's go back to the Size figures when the company is listed.
The offered price is $14 opening 18 closing 22.
So it's plus 58% in one day from offered price to closing when the stock market is done by 2% this day.
So you understand that the welcome of the market is extremely warm.
Then the company stock price boosted by covid maximum will be arranged in February 2021 $60 per share starting from 14 or 18.
That's a fantastic track record while the stock price of one medical is declining in September 2021 the company buys Euro, which is also in the health business providing services and simple Primary Care the population which is advised by this business is very much a Medicare population at that time steel.
They are room or that one medical is not doing the right things for people and then it's going to be accused in the December 2021 by the coronavirus subcommittee of unscrupulous conduct.
And they were accused of making money instead of providing house.
The consequence is as I said before that's a stock price is going to get to a lowest point, which is six dollars.
Hardly getting to 10 and now 17 18 because of Amazon.
Of course, you can say that NASDAQ Evolution was a little bit couches last month.
That's true.
But if You observe the Benchmark between one medical and a NASDAQ since the IPO of one medical what do You observe You observe that is kind of continuation one medical and as Dax they go together, then you get to a high point at the end of 2020 beginning of 2021 there after while NASDAQ is going to show some slow growth and then some difficulties one medical is collapsing gets to a little point and then goal slightly up.
So you understand that is a correlation and then no correlation anymore if you can calculate the beta over the entire period you get a better which is 2.20 something but you understand that these parameter is absolutely meaningless because Have two sub periods.
This is why a little bit later.
I will calculate a much shorter beta in terms of time range.
Now.
There are a couple of events.
It's a story of one medical which I'm going to use as example to illustrate something very important, which is information asymmetry.
Let's make a couple of minutes discussing theory and practice about when you make an equity announcement what happens to Capital markets and the interpretation of what happens it's name information asymmetry, which basically says that shareholders.
They don't know much about what the companies doing.
They don't know much about the inside of the company.
Oh they know about the past but what about the future not much is disclosed because very often it is regarded as fully confidential and it would be disclosed at the expense of shareholders as well.
So the company is coming they can't think but without this Losing which is quite an issue because the shareholders did not know again that much about the real story inside the company among Financial events, which are really communication to the market the evolution of gearing adaptedness debt to equity debt to leverage the companies increasing debt.
Why because the company feels very confident about the future or the capital is dead is increasing why because the company's making losses.
This is exactly the same event.
It's not exactly the same interpretation dividend policy.
Do you stabilize a dividend you cut down the dividend do double the dividend why the nature of the fonts which are raised is also quite important.
Do you is you dead do is you Equity.
Do you hybrid convertible debt? We are going to discuss that again in a minute, but then you understand that the reaction of the market is going to be positive or negative depending on how the market is.
Interpreting and what is very difficult is to interpret what the market is doing and transform that into a little bit of forecasting the day you decide to do something and communicate to the market.
Let me give you an example to complete these theoretical input.
Shares buy back.
The company is buying its own chairs.
How do you temper that there are two ways to interpret one is companies buying back the shares to return the cash to shareholders because the company has absolutely no project for the future or the board is deciding to buy back the shares why because the ball is absolutely convinced as a stock price should be merge higher than what it is.
You have first a negative interpretation second positive one.
How are you going to forecast the market interpretation? You can't now when the company's communicating and sending a signal to the market.
We have one way to measure the impact that the method which is named abnormal returns.
Five steps the first one is you calculate the beta which is a correlation between the stock price and Market Evolution you obver the market and you make the correlation a little bit before the even before the communication before the signal very often 20 days before then you observe the market Evolution after as you announcement after the signal 10 days after 20 days after then you can calculate the no more evolution of the stock price between before and after imagine that your beta is too imagine that the market is press 1.5% Your stock price should show us to times 1.5% which is plus three percent.
This would be the normal evolution of your stock price.
Then you can observe the actual evolution of your stock price and then you're going to compare the normal Evolution versus the actual one.
Then you compare and you try to interpret why the market positively or negatively reacted to what you announced.
I'm going to propose you two events to Communications to signals which are quite close to each other.
The first one in May 2020 is when one medical is issuing a convertible node convertible Bond a few weeks later in June 2020 when some investors are addressing the secondary Market selling their shares to other investors.
Let's have a look at these two.
Even the first one is one medical issues a convertible note.
We are in May 2020.
The amount of money which is raised is 300 million dollars.
So total amounts of fonts raised is 300 million dollars and the nominal of each and every Bond standing alone is 1000 dollars.
The coupon is 3% The maturity is 20 25, so it's a five-year bomb.
A convertible Bond a convertible note is a bond which you can convert and so the question is in how many shares this is named the conversion rate which is a fundamental parameter in any convertible issue 20 2.5.
Oh five two, which means that at the maturity you can decide to ask for your money back 1,000 or you can ask for the conversion of your bone into 22 dot five shares issued at that time.
There are a couple of interesting calculations to make out of that first you look at the currents the price when the bone is easier.
It is 32.3 dollars.
There are a couple of immediate calculations which are quite interesting and relevant for any convertible born issue first calculation.
You pay one thousand dollars.
Are you going to convert the bone immediately? If you convert you'll get 22.5 shares you can sell the shares at 2.3 jars per share how much you get into your pocket? 727 so of course you're not going to do it because you're not going to pay 1,000 to get 727 in finance.
We say that the option the convertibility option is out of the money.
There's absolutely no real motivation to exercise the option today.
But there will be a motivation to exercise later is a stock price is up.
Then we can calculate the kind of break even your pet 1,000 and you will get if you exercise a conversion right 22.5 shares so you understand that if they're value of the share is minimum 44.4 dollars, then it's going to be a motivation to convert instead of asking for the 1,000 back.
This is a break even and the Breakeven was rich in generate 2021 and beyond that because you remember that the stock price went to a high point of 16 hours.
So if you get back to the graph, you understand the stock price is up.
There is an opportunity the market is ready.
I need to know Paul Tunis stick issue, which is to issue the convertible bone today.
The question is what does it communicate to the investors? What is going to be there interpretation and their reaction to this communication? Let's go.
a minute on the motivations for a company to issue a convertible Bond a convertible ball is a straight Bond, press the option to convert so call option because you have the right to buy stocks.
Of course, you don't get the same coupon as if you had invested in a straight Bond why because in addition to the straight ball, you have the right to convert so you get the lower coupon and the difference between the straight Coupe and the convertible coupon is a premium you pay to have the right to convert.
This is named the option premium for the company.
It's absolutely great.
Why because you have a lower work coupons, but you are going to postpone and reduce dilution.
Why do you postpone delusion? Simply because when you issue the bone, nobody has any motivation to convert the bond into shares the option is out of the money and you remember that you are not going to prefer 727 to 1,000.
So you are going to convert later when the option becomes in the morning and you're speaking at maturity.
So your postponed delusion in addition to that the day you actually convert the bond.
How many shares are you going to issue? 22.5? Imagine that you consider the alternative which is to issue shares today.
How many shares are you going to issue in order to get $1,000? The starting point The Benchmark is a current stock price, which is 32.3 dollars.
You remember that the day you want to issue as you will have to offer a discount.
So the new Shares are going to be issue that less than 32.3 dollars maybe 30 dollars.
And then in order to get $1,000 you will have to issue 30 three shares.
So you will have to if you significantly more than 30 shares today instead of 22.5 tomorrow you postpone and you're reduced delusion.
Which kind of signal do you send to the market? You say? Okay guys, you're buying the bone today and you will convert tomorrow, but you will convert because it's stock price will go up and that's an extremely positive signal.
But then the investors might also tell you why don't you issue straight there today, which you are going to repay tomorrow when the stock price is up issuing shares tomorrow at The Benchmark, which is a much higher stock price.
So you understand there's a little bit of ambiguity in the signal.
Of course, you could argue that in a case of one medical it's very difficult to issue straight that because itself is negative.
So there is no need to add and pile up a huge amount of interest expense when they be that is already not able to pay the depreciation and amortization.
Now the company made these you and why did we observe in order to cancel the abnormal return? The first thing we have to do is to calculate the beta shortly before the announcement and the beta is 1.6, which is quite different from the 2.20 something we observe for the entire period This one is much more relevant for abnormal returns 10 days after the publication of the Vertical node prospectus so NASDAQ is a by one point.
Oh four percent the normal evolution of the stock price of one medical should have been 1.6 times 1.04, which is plus 1.67.
Now You observe the actual return over the period and it's minus 8.64% So you understand that the abnormal return which is the actual minus the normal is minus 8.64 minus 1.67, which is a gap of 10.3 percent.
So you understand that the market reaction is quite negative.
You can argue that maybe 10 days is not long enough as a period you look at 20 days same conclusion now, how can we interpret this negative reaction by the market? The last official and financial communication we get from the company is a tank you report quarterly report first quarter 2020 and the balance sheet shows cash at Bank of 375 million dollars, which is quite significant when the company was listed its raised 245 million plus a cash at bank at that time minus a cash which was consumed in a mean time is 3 and 75 million.
Now if you look at the operating cash flow for this first quarter 2020, the company consumes in its business operations, 13 million and the company is investing Capital expenditures for the future 20 million.
So the cash out is minus 33 million dollars.
But then as you have 375 million dollars in the bank account, you can quote survive during at least 11 quarters.
What's probably not true because in the future as a company is growing more cash is going to be needed.
But you could consider that maybe the 375 are needed.
Maybe not now the market concluded that it was a negative signal.
It's just an opinion Saigon event a few weeks later June 2020.
The stock price is back to 31.8 dollars and the company's announcing that some critical investors some fundamental investors including Caroline are going to sell shares.
But they are going to sell their shares on the secondary Market to other institutional or private investors.
This shareholders are going to sell 8.3 million shares Carlisle represents 7.5 out of the 8.3.
No additional cash in the bank account of the company because it's about shareholders selling to shareholders.
If you look at the premon evaluation when Carlisle invested in one medical it was 1.3 billion the value of the company when Carlisle is selling its shares.
It's 4 billion dollars.
We just the same number of shares at the end of the day.
It means that the value was multiplied by three and that's a quite nice internal rate of return.
It's now calculate the abnormal returns.
We need a beta 1.54 not that far from the 1.60, but it was just a few days later NASDAQ 10 days after the publication of the prospectus plus 6% 6.44% The normal return should have been 1.54 beta times NASDAQ upside 6.44.
It should have been plus 10% The actual return is all most plus 26% So the More returns 26 minus 10 is plus 16% So you understand that the market very positively interpreted this move.
Do you understand that the reaction of the market was quite positive which might be a little bit of a surprise when you're interpret that considering that the investors the Insiders are simply leaving the boat.
If they sell their shares, it's probably because the considers that you are getting to a high point and there is not much of side potential.
The reaction should be negative and it's quite positive.
Difficult to interpret now.
Let's back a minute to the deal.
What is the business rationality of Amazon Amazon created Amazon care in 2019 Amazon Pharmacy in 2020.
The Apple watch is something which is very useful in order to get information about your health.
And then one medical is in a direct line of this strategic intent.
This Market is quite huge.
It's estimated more than four trillion dollars per year.
What is as huge at the market is customer dissatisfaction.
So when a business is very big and the consumers and the customers are not happy.
There's a potential entry.
In the meantime these big players on the market the Private health insurance such as humania and so on so forth.
We are making quite a lot of profits some people they say they make too much profit.
So it's a profitable business.
It's a very big business and there are some potential entry.
So you understand that hamad's own could introduce some disruption in this market.
Of course one medical is not a great star the company sales quarter after quarter is gently moving up then it's up because of covid then it's stabilizing and then during the last two quarters the company is showing some girls because of the acquisition of your but it's not very much fast growing.
What about the metrics of one medical just before the announcement was made by Amazon second quarter 2022 quarterly revenues to 250 million.
Why? Because it's a traditional business plus the acquisition of Europe.
I just did a bit that so you start with the a bit you add the Precision amortization you add back stock-based compensations, you get rid of some non-recuring items and you get something which is quite negative minus 38 million.
This is Cash which is consumed by the p&l and cash which is consumed by the cash flow statement is capital expenditures, which is 34 million.
By the way, if you some these two figures what you get a cash consumption of 73 million dollars, then you understand that the convertible born is you would probably a good idea last but not least you look at the evolution of the number of members of membership customers and you see that it is slow grows and not that very quick grows.
So you understand that I'm a zone is going to try to use its own talent to boost driving use and create value out of that.
But what do we know about Amazon talent for past Acquisitions and your businesses, which we're created all we have some information about the cloud.
We have plenty of information about Amazon web services starting in 2013.
And before we had nothing, but if you look at the evolution of sales and revenues and operating income of Amazon web services since a moment, we have the figures you understand that it is a tremendous success today after some stabilizations of the business economics You observe that North American operations represents almost 60% of the revenues International operations less than 30 and Amazon web services a little bit more than 10 now, when you move to the contribution not to revenues but to operate income you understand that the start Amazon is definitely Amazon web services.
This is why you have to disclose the p&l and the balance sheet and information in a separate segment, which was open to Amazon web services almost 10 years ago.
Now what about the ulcers you remember? I mentioned Acquisitions 13 billion something for World Foods twitch Zappos and so on so forth which information do you get in the annual report? Nothing they are hardly mentioned you have no figures about sales revenues profit cash flow the value of Goodwills value of brands or whatsoever.
The only financial communication will recently got about an equity stake of Amazon is about rivian.
Why because the stock price dramatically dropped and the company had to show a right off of 11.5 billion dollars and it's books why because the stock price went down to 32 dollars.
This is the online information we get of course Amazon is a significant contributor of review and shares the company holds about 18% of the shares one hand and 58 million shares, which is quite significant when you multiply that by Two dollars per share Amazon participated to the equity issues in 2019.
First one in 2019 the second one in 2020.
So the company definitely is a support and they announced that they are going to buy 100,000 rivian cars minivans was there delivery supply chain and Logistics.
So this is quite an involvement, but it's interesting to look at the price at which rivian issue the shares before the listing the maximum was for 2020 and it's about 15 dollars.
So of course today Amazon is showing a write-off but you know what, they paid maximum 15 and today's worth twice as much no big deal.
What about the other business Avenues? No information Amazon communication is extremely Limited.
You show a segment when it's very big and when it's very profitable it's a case of Amazon web services before it becomes big and profitable you hide everything you show nothing.
Is it good or bad management? I would like to conclude this film with a provocative question should companies be transpared.
Of course.
They also we are transparents and so forth.
Should there be transparent? Amazon is very transparent when the business is very profitable and very successful Cloud Amazon web services, but when you are building business Avenues and you are making some risky experiments some are going to be winners.
Some are going to be losers.
Is it good news? Is it good idea? Is it good management to raise analyst attention If You observe the behavior of some cell side financial analysis, they have to demonstrate that's the exist.
So they have a kind of motivation to show some punchline analysis and criticism about the company the forget about what Amazon is they forget about the track record the forget about Amazon web services and say oh in the pharmacy business, they are not doing well in the streaming business Etc.
So if you want to open the door to this kind of criticism you are going to be very transparent and you say oh here we have a problem.
No, don't do it.
This is why Amazon is absolutely not transparent of all its business experiments.
And that's it.
And you understand that one of the reasons backings is decision is that it's so difficult to understand how the market is going to react to control this kind of Market Behavior very difficult to interpret very difficult to forecast.
So what do you say nothing? So you understand that as far as one medical is concerned but Amazon care Amazon Pharmacy the watch and so on so forth all these Health Care applications The one and unique relevant question is not what are they doing at the moment, but when will the market segment be created and disclose any accounts? Before that forget about being informed now you remember that in this film I discussed about information asymmetry.
How do you observe the impact of this information asymmetry when you send a signal when you communicate on something abnormal returns? How do you interpret abnormal returns? You understand that it's extremely difficult and forecasting is definitely an issue.
So with information a symmetry and the difficulty to interpret abnormal returns and Signal Unison, that investing is really a tough job together with being a financial analyst or a company listed on a capital markets.
