Boku - Making payments pay

Boku’s FY17 results confirmed growth in all metrics, as new merchant connections helped drive a more than doubling of monthly active users and a tripling of payment volumes. With underlying costs actually falling year-on-year, the company significantly reduced losses and is on course to generate positive operating profit and EPS in FY18. FY18 outlook is unchanged and our forecasts are substantially unchanged. With net cash of $16m, the company is in a strong position to fund future growth, with products under development to use carrier data to optimise e-commerce.
