Article: Nuance Communications (NUAN) Reports Mixed Q2 Results
on Dec 19, 2008
at 12:32 PM Bernard Madoff plotting Nuance strategy? Nuance financial reporting lacks transparency and is designed to confuse and make it impossible to really understand. Nuance announced that they will change how they report their different businesses. Historically, they have reported revenues in five market segments: enterprise (network), embedded (mobile), healthcare (including Dragon Medical), Dragon (non-medical) and imaging. Nuance plans to report in three solutions categories – Mobile-Enterprise, Healthcare and Imaging. Under the new categories: - Mobile-Enterprise includes revenues from enterprise/network, mobile/embedded and non-healthcare Dragon sales - Healthcare includes all healthcare dictation and clinical documentation solutions - Imaging includes revenues for all PDF and document conversion solutions. Two major problems exist with this: 1) Historical continuity is totally lost. No way to compare to previous results. 2) You are combining business segments that have virtually no business commonality. Enterprise/network, mobile/embedded and non-healthcare Dragon sales have no synergy. They have totally different products, distribution channels and customers. Grouping them makes no sense at all. The lame reason that Nuance offers is that this is “To reflect the recent realignment of our operational units and to reflect the convergence of our enterprise and mobile markets”. Nuance aligning their operational units to not coincide with how the markets exist, is just flat-out stupid. The “convergence of our enterprise and mobile markets” is typical of the gibberish that Ricci sprouts. Enterprise and mobile are totally different markets with different customers, channels and products. This reporting scheme looks like something that Bernard Madoff would recommend to Nuance. It totally makes it impossible to obtain visibility into what is really happening at Nuance. Just like L&H, Nuance has a house-of-cards that could collapse at any time. Changing their segment reporting is simply designed to make it impossible for anyone to notice the fraud that they are committing.
Article: UBS Initiates Coverage on Nuance Communications (NUAN)
on Nov 28, 2008
at 06:31 PM Nuance profit is a 1-time event After years of loses, Nuance finally reported a quarterly profit. They claimed that it was caused by cost cutting and efficiencies gained from recent acquisitions which improved their GM operating expenses. When you look closely at their numbers, it becomes quite clear that what actually caused this was a surge in their license revenue from Q3 to Q4. It jumped 30.5% (29.4 million) from the previous quarter. Contrast this with the Professional Services, subscription and hosting that grew only 7.6% (6.3 million) from Q3. Nuance has made it clear that they will greatly expand their services business. This means that the high-margin product license revenue will decrease as a proportion of the total and the Nuance profit will disappear permanently. Where did the huge jump in product license revenue come from? When questioned on this, Ricci claimed that it came from the newly released DNS product and embedded license sales. This answer seemed like a stretch since the total DNS revenue was $22 million and no reason exists for any increase in revenue from the automobile and cellphone area. In any event, high-margin license revenue accounting for almost 50% of the Nuance revenue is unsustainable in the future and Nuance is virtually certain to return to reporting quarterly losses. Nuance also has $1.7 million in Good Will that needs to be written down in order to bring it to current market value. As these write-offs occur in future quarters, expect to see huge losses.
