* Fourth consecutive year of accelerating top line growth and now we are over 40%.

* Revenue growth accelerating: 41% growth for Q1 2021 versus 36% for Q1 2020.

* But so too are these metrics:

The push into enterprise customers is succeeding

* The enterprise segment drove annual recurring revenue (ARR) in this group to 57% of total ARR in Q1 2021 versus 56% for all of 2020, up from 52% in Q1 2020, 52% for all of 2019, and 46% for all of 2018.

In a raging bear market for small- to mid-cap tech, which BIGC certainly is, it’s hard to feel bullish or optimistic, but facts are facts, and thus far, the company has demonstrated at least a reasonable basis to be optimistic.

It is time to look at operating leverage.

The "Greens"
* Gross profit percent has risen from 76% in 2018 to 81% in Q1 2021.

* Operating margin percent has risen from -39% in 2018 to -7% in Q1 2021.

$BIGC

The “reds”
* S&M expense as a per cent of revenue has fallen from 50% in 2018 to 41% in Q1 2021.

* R&D expense as a per cent of revenue has fallen from 46% in 2018 to 26% in Q1 2021.

* G&A expense as a per cent of revenue has stayed steady at 20%.

I am long.

All I care about:

* Market place revenue +6% 
* Active accounts +7%
* Advertising revenue +35%
* Gross profit +11%
* Jumia Pay TPV +21%

- And -

* Fullfilment exp - 11%
* S&A exp -9%
* T&C exp -4%
* G&A -18%

- Meaning -
* Net loss from ops shrank 23%

First party revenue was taken down by 35% and they want it down 100%.
It's the first party revenue purposeful reduction that has the rest looking bad.

If this didn't happen, it was a problem.

Now the CEO has finally said we are finally able to go after growth.

With 560M EUR in cash (88M in Apr), this is a $1.5B EV investment in Africa’s e-commerce, fintech, logistics, advertising, food delivery. 

This story is unfolding as it should.

Cut costs, turn margins positive, raise funds, then grow.

'Then grow' is now up per CEO.

Actually there is a lot in the letter to shareholders, like this:

Revenue would have been $86.5M which would have been a beat if not for a write down from SS.

* Three years ago today, consensus analyst estimate for 2021 revenue was $1.5B.

* Today it is $2.6B, fully 73% higher.

COVID didn't "pull forward" growth that will "revert."

It changed the world permanently.

A 'scan' for growth can leave you knowing 10% thinking you know 90%.

It happens to all of us.

It takes work to be a stock picker.

It takes a willingness to sit in an underappreciated stock where 'underappreciated' is code for bad returns...

... until they aren't.

I call this patience 'perspective,' but w/e. It's all the same thing.

Either you have it or you do not.

Morgan Housel said it well too:

* DBNER: 121% versus 117% last quarter and 111% a year ago.

At scale, DBNER is at all time highs.

But that too is not story.

$FIVN

When the company went public in Q2 2014, it had:

– 3 enterprise customers over $1M in annual recurring revenue (ARR).

– 60% of revenue derived from all enterprises.

* As of Q4 2020, it had:

– 91 enterprise customers over $1M ARR.

Still not the story...
