* GOGO - Is This MOMO Firm Turning the Corner... Or is it "Much Ado?" (3 Charts)

Conclusion
GOGO is losing money while revenue is growing... pretty much the status quo for growth and MOMO companies right now. But, there are a couple of charts which may point to a turn around; a different set of circumstances that make GOGO look different from the group. 

This isn't meant as a definitive research piece and it certainly isn't complete. But in three charts, we go from knowing very little, to knowing... considerably more.




Net Income Margin %
That bad news is that net income margin (and therefore net income) is negative.  But, we'd have to be blind to not see the improving trend.  Net income margin % loss has been cut in half.



Revenue (TTM) to Net Income (TTM)
On the top (in blue bars) we see revenue, and a rather impressive and consistent 152% growth in the last few years.  On the bottom (the orange line) we see net income. There has been a flattening of the curve (losses) as revenue increases, and then a rather sudden jump up (reduction in losses).



Gross Margin %
There is a counter weight to all of this information (aside form the fact that the firm is losing money), and that's gross margin %.  Possibly the most compelling part of the Internet Services & Software industry is the incredibly high gross margin % (see YELP as an example).  GOGO has seen its gross margin % drop as revenue has grown.  The drop isn't huge, but it is certainly not trivial and it is certainly consistent.


More on GOGO in future posts.
