Sprinklr Grows Revenue But Needs Operating Breakeven To Soar
Sprinklr went public in June 2021, raising approximately $266 million in an IPO. The firm provides a suite of customer experience management software tools to businesses worldwide. CXM has produced revenue growth and strong retention results, but high operating losses, which have been punished by the current stock market. If management makes a credible move toward operating breakeven and the cost of capital growth ameliorates, the stock could rise. Until either or both of those conditions are present, I'm on Hold for CXM. A Quick Take On Sprinklr Sprinklr (CXM) went public in June 2021, raising approximately $266 million in gross proceeds from an IPO that priced at $16.00 per share. The firm sells customer experience management software via a unified suite of applications. While CXM looks to be currently undervalued compared to its SaaS peers, at least on a revenue multiple basis, management needs to produce results in reducing operating losses. Until it can prove its ability to make a meaningful move toward operating breakeven, I’m on Hold for CXM.

The Rule of 40 is a software industry rule of thumb that says that as long as the combined revenue growth rate and EBITDA percentage rate equal or exceed 40%, the firm is on an acceptable growth/EBITDA trajectory. CXM’s most recent GAAP Rule of 40 calculation was 12% as of FQ1 2023, so the firm needs improvement in this regard, per the table below: Rule of 40 - GAAP Calculation Recent Rev.
