RiverPark Large Growth Fund made the following comment about RingCentral, Inc. (NYSE:RNG) in its Q4 2022 investor letter:
“RingCentral, Inc. (NYSE:RNG): Despite reporting strong results this year, RNG shares were a top detractor for 4Q, as the market continues to anticipate slowing growth for the company. The company reported 1Q and 2Q revenue growth of 33% and 28%, respectively, and in mid-September reiterated 3Q guidance for 21%-22% revenue growth.
RingCentral is the largest and fastest growing pure play Unified Communications as a Service (UcaaS) vendor. UcaaS solutions support employees who communicate from anywhere with any device, using voice, video, text, messaging and social media in a capital and labor light model. RNG is the UcaaS market leader with two million users in an extremely fragmented market and is growing rapidly. The company started in the small-and-medium business market and now also serves larger enterprises, helped by its channel partnerships. The company’s increasing scale from its growing recurring revenue should improve operating margins, allowing the company to achieve its long-term target of 20%-25% (vs. 11% for 2Q22), while also generating increasing FCF.”
