My estimate for Q1: 74 million revenues 4-May-09 03:34 pm of the 8 core-companies. In the last quarter we could read: "In the fourth quarter of 2008, aggregate revenue of the eight core companies grew more than 16% year-over-year, to $70.4 million from $60.5 million in the fourth quarter of 2007."

Re: My estimate for Q1: 74 million revenues 4-May-09 03:58 pm Flank the problem is that ICGE can have a value of 200 dollars per share and just sell at an even bigger discount to its value unless BUck and the boys get the fk out of the way. Rating : (No ratings)Rate it: buylow2009

Re: My estimate for Q1: 74 million revenues 4-May-09 04:06 pm $ 200 is to high, but I believe between $20 und $30 are possible, if Buckley and Doug Alexander and the idiotic CFO will be fired. Rating : (No ratings) flankenking

Re: My estimate for Q1: 74 million revenues 4-May-09 04:29 pm Last quarter we could read: "Excluding the impact of stock-based compensation and unusual items, aggregate EBITDA for the core companies was $3.8 million in the fourth quarter of 2008 versus $(8.1) million in the fourth quarter of 2007."
I am sure, we could read better numbers about the first quarter of 2009. Rating : (No ratings) flankenking

ICG Commerce Increases Spend Under Management 50% to More than $10 Billion Since Start of Economic Crisis Results Underscore Trend of Fortune 1000 Companies Increasingly Looking to Procurement Outsourcing to Maximize and Accelerate Cost Reductions
PHILADELPHIA - Monday, March 09, 2009 - ICG Commerce, the leading procurement outsourcing specialist, announced today that the amount of spend the company manages for leading companies spiked to $10.2 billion, a 50% increase since September 30th of last year. Driving this increase are new or expanded contracts with industry titans including Whirlpool, Teva Pharmaceuticals, Goodyear, Cameron Industries and a leading software provider. These contracts are collectively worth $136 MM in total contract value, a 50% increase over the total value contracted during the full year 2007.
“As current economic conditions force companies to seek additional ways to cut costs, results-oriented leaders are turning to procurement outsourcing,” said Carl Guarino, Chief Executive Officer, ICG Commerce. “Our recently accelerated customer activity is a testament to our proven ability to deliver hundreds of millions of dollars in savings that drop straight to the bottom-line.”
According to the research and advisory firm, The Everest Group, procurement outsourcing delivers 5 times more savings than other outsourcing endeavors, like IT or HR outsourcing. Unlike these other outsourcing solutions, which focus on headcount reductions through technology and labor arbitrage, procurement outsourcing focuses on driving down the costs of purchased goods and services. For many companies these purchases, which fall into categories, like logistics, marketing services, IT/telecom, packaging and travel, represent over $1 billion of expenditures.
“Globalization and outsourcing are megatrends that are accelerating dramatically in today’s economic climate,” says The Hackett Group’s Procurement Research Director, Pierre Mitchell. “Our recent 2009 Procurement Key Issues study indicates that 50% of Procurement organizations plan to use BPO as part of their globalization efforts.”
For nearly a decade, ICG Commerce has focused on helping Fortune 1000 clients like Kimberly Clark, Hertz, Chiquita, Greif and many others, expand and accelerate aggressive cost reduction programs. ICG Commerce delivers savings by infusing sourcing specialists who bring deep category expertise and access to intelligence data that compounds as they work across numerous Fortune 1000 companies.

Re: My estimate for Q1: 74 million revenues 3 second(s) ago I believe, that the revenues of ICGCommerce was about 21 million in the first quarter. My estimate for the other quarters:
2. quarter = 23 million
3. quarter = 25 million
4. quarter = 27 million
Revenues for 2000 = 96 million.
Ebitda was positive in 2008 by about 64 million revenues with about 7 million. Most of the additional reveneus are not costs, therefore I believe, that the Ebitda will increases from 7 million in 2008 to more than 20 million in 2009. |
