Secure – xFi Advanced Security – included free for customers who lease an Xfinity gateway – protects connected devices from malware and other threats at the gateway before they reach devices and the household members who are using them.

How Asure Software (NASDAQ: ASUR) Helps Small and Mid-Sized Businesses Cut Costs and Streamline Back Office Operations

Benzinga

The most recent CPI report shows that inflation “eased” back to 8.2% in September. That’s an improvement from the 9.1% reported for June, but costs are still high. That, combined with a more competitive labor market, is compressing profit margins. Small and mid-sized businesses (SMBs) are looking for ways to cut costs and make their operations more efficient. Asure Software (NASDAQ: ASUR) is addressing the problem by offering a suite of cloud-based products to automate and streamline back-office operations. Their human capital management (HCM) platform cuts down the workload on employee management, human resources, accounting, tax filings, and allocating financial capital for growth. The Dilemma: Small Businesses Surveyed See Revenues Increased, but Profits Under Pressure Let’s examine the numbers. An American Express poll released in September revealed that revenues for 550 businesses surveyed had nearly doubled between July 2021 and July 2022. The actual number was 87%. Unfortunately, in the same period, profits dropped by 4%. Increased costs for materials, labor, and supplies were major contributors to that. Interest rate hikes and stock market volatility also cut into profits in the first two quarters of 2022. Inflationary pressure was reported by 75% of the survey participants as the primary reason for lower profits, and the cost of debt financing increased as the Fed steadily raised interest rates. That has directly impacted growth for many SMBs in the United States. The Covid-19 pandemic and subsequent supply chain issues resulting from it are widely viewed as the main catalysts for the economic conditions currently driving down profit margins. The US government has attempted to relieve some of that pressure by offering low-cost loans and tax breaks. Many of these are packaged into the CARES Act, including the ERC program. What is ERC and Why is it Important for SMBs? The Employee Retention Credit under the CARES Act was created to encourage SMBs financially impacted by COVID-19 to keep employees on their payroll. Eligible businesses can receive a tax refund of up to $28,000 per W-2 employee on the payroll in 2020 and 2021. Independent contractors, sole proprietors, and LLCs are not eligible for ERC. It’s not that simple of course. For a business to be eligible, it must have 500 or fewer employees, and have either been closed due to a government order or experienced a revenue decline of at least 20% for any quarter during the eligibility period. Asure has expanded its tax filing capabilities to help SMBs manage ERC guidelines and demand. Tax refunds acquired through the ERC program can increase business cash flow and help offset rising costs. It’s temporary relief, but it’s timely. The Federal Reserve Bank approved several interest rate hikes this year and implemented quantitative tightening to reduce liquidity on their balance sheet. Both moves are projected to slow inflation in 2023. Asure has Automated ERC Management for CPAs and Tax Professionals Claiming the ERC refunds requires an amended filing using Form 941X (Quarterly Federal Payroll Tax Return). If the business became inoperable due to the pandemic, Form 5884-A might be required. Small business owners may not know this. CPAs should. Asure has built the guidelines and forms directly into its cloud accounting platform. The new technology is an expansion of Asure’s Payroll Tax Management engine, FlexTax, which delivers cloud-based payroll tax processing, reconciliation, and reporting functionality, as well as a 24/7 online tax portal. Automating the back-office ERC work frees business owners and company accountants up to focus on high-value client work. FlexTax works in conjunction with PrismHR’s payroll service, an Asure integration partner that services over 80,000 organizations. The roll-out of the new feature comes closely on the heels of an expansion to Asure’s 401(k) provider base. They added eighty new direct-integration partners in that space to expand retirement plan options for SMBs. Asure Trades at EV/EBITDA of 8.4, Price-to-Book Value of 0.69 Based on fundamental analysis, they show the company as a serious cash flow generator. It has a price-to-book value of 0.69 and a price-to-free-cash-flow ratio of 10. This tells us that Asure is generating strong free cash flows, but trades at a discount to its book value. For growth-at-a-reasonable-price (GARP) investors, this is an opportunity worth taking a closer look at. In addition, Asure Software trades at a steep discount compared to the overall software industry and the S&P 500, when looking at the enterprise value to EBITDA (EV/EBITDA) valuation. As of this writing, Asure has an EV/EBITDA of 8.40. This compares to the software industry average EV/EBITDA valuation of 48.70 and the S&P 500’s 15.70. Asure (ASUR) carries little debt and holds a cumulative analyst rating of “buy.” That’s good for investors, but the real value is in how Asure could be positioned in the age of automation and cloud services.Human capital resource software could play a major part also. Inflation is going to be with us for a while. The Fed will continue to raise interest rates until it starts to slow, so a recession is a real possibility. In many ways, our situation is unprecedented, so technical analysis of equity investments is not sufficient. Asure checks all the fundamental boxes, which are the real indicators of a company's potential profitability. Furthermore, Asure’s HCM services provide a very tangible need for SMBs right now: cost-cutting and operational streamlining. In any economic environment, SMBs will still need to manage employees, payroll, retirement offerings, tax filings, and more. Asure Software provides the framework needed for businesses to remain in a competitive stance in recruiting top talent. Overall, Asure may be an interesting company to keep an eye on for long-term investors that are looking for good GARP investments. After all, the company is continuing to generate strong top and bottom line results and yet trades at a discount to its book value.

GOODWAY GROUP NAMED TO NEWSWEEK’S LIST OF THE TOP 100 MOST LOVED WORKPLACES FOR 2022

Goodway Group

Newsweek released their annual rankings for the Top 100 Most Loved Workplaces® list, and Goodway Group was ranked # 57. The 2022 Top 100 Most Loved Workplaces® are the result of a collaboration with the Best Practice Institute (BPI), a leadership development and benchmark research company. The results were determined after surveying more than 1.4 million employees from businesses with workforces varying in size from 50 to more than 10,000. The list recognizes companies that put respect, caring, and appreciation for their employees at the center of their business model and, in doing so, have earned the loyalty and respect of the people who work for them. Goodway Group was selected, in part, for their team's continual positive vision for the future. "We're natural disruptors and change is core to our DNA. Employees play an active role in writing the future as our business evolves," shared Kandi Gongora, Chief Transformation Officer. "Naturally, we must focus on professional growth and development to stay ahead of the curve." To this end, Goodway supports employees' long-term career goals through a structured framework and creates a respectful, inclusive environment by welcoming employee feedback. In 2016, Goodway expanded their commitment to the company's ongoing evolution, forming the Goodway Council, a cross-section of employees who provide the leadership team with feedback on various topics to prioritize and influence company culture. This direct line to leadership offers another avenue for employees to share their feedback and solutions. How positive workers feel about their future at the company, career achievement, how much employer values align with employee values, respect at all levels, and the level of collaboration at the firm were the five critical areas measured to gauge employee sentiment. In addition, areas such as inclusion, diversity, equity and belonging, and company response and adaptability to the COVID-19 pandemic, such as return-to-office rules, were identified and analyzed in relation to the five critical areas measured. “As a result of ‘The Great Resignation,’ more companies recognize the importance of focusing on employee satisfaction to not only attract but retain top talent,” said Nancy Cooper, Global Editor in Chief, Newsweek. “The businesses on this year’s list clearly demonstrated that commitment.” "The companies on this list represent the best at placing love at the center of their employee's experience," said Louis Carter, CEO, Best Practice Institute. "The number of applications this year and analysis of survey data reinforces our original findings that love is the strongest predictor of the strength of a company's culture, employee engagement, and satisfaction." For the full Newsweek list of 2022’s Most Loved Workplaces, please visit. Methodology To identify the top 100 companies for the Newsweek ranking, companies were evaluated and scored as follows: 35 percent of the initial score was based on employee survey responses; 25 percent was derived from analysis of external public ratings from sites such as Comparably, Careerbliss, Glassdoor, Indeed and Google; and 40 percent came from direct interviews with and written responses from company officials. Newsweek then conducted additional research into every company on the list, as well as the top runners up, to determine the final list of 100 companies and their ranking.
