Price Performance
Growth Potential
- Strong balance sheet position with no debt (cash on hand $221.8m)
- Proven and market leading technology (management believes they are 24 months ahead of competitors), with PME’s product commanding a price premium.
- New contract wins (more win rates plus higher value per contract), increasing usage by existing clients and winning market share in the U.S. (penetration is just 10% with Visage able to address 100% of TAM from a product perspective).
- Quick to implement is a competitive advantage for PME which reduces the barrier to change. Previously companies could take up to 2.5 years to complete an implementation, whereas PME can do it in weeks/months.
- New product launches – Enterprise Imaging solutions and moving into other “ologies” such as cardiology and ophthalmology. Developing artificial intelligence (AI) capabilities. Management noted cardiology opportunity could be approx. 15-20% size of radiology total addressable market (by value).
- Leveraged to the digital health data thematic and industry’s transition to cloud.
- Expansion into new geographies and potential M&A activity.
