The AAII Twin Cities Chapter presents...

"Investing in Software: A View From the Sell Side"

    Discussed by:

    Matthew Hedberg
    Vice President–Equity Research, RBC Capital Markets

Ever wonder about the sell side? Gain insight from a professional stock analyst with a specific perspective on the software industry as to when to sell a stock. Knowing when to sell is critical, yet we often spend most of our time researching what to buy or cheering for our favorite stock as it continues to decline. Also discover important trends, ideas and what metrics matter when analyzing software company investments. No matter what investment you buy, there are no capital gains until you sell.

Attend This Meeting and Learn...
Sell-side research for the software industry, the analyst’s audience and the research process
Trends and ideas in software: software-as-a-service (SaaS), virtualization, cloud computing, big data and more
Relevant metrics when analyzing software investments: license revenue, maintenance, subscription revenue, bookings, deferred revenue, DSO, CFO and valuation metrics such as EV/S, P/E and EV/CFO
