Sharek’s Take |
![]() HubSpot offers online software that can keep track your business’s customers, potential customers, do online marketing campaigns, track if people are opening your emails, and even automate customer service team. What’s more, is this software is reasonably priced — cheaper than Salesforce. You can get free plans, upgrade for $200 a month, or get a complete suite to run your company. The company ended 2020 with 104,000 total customers, up 42% year-over-year. Customers spend around $10,000 a year with HubSpot historically. When it comes to sales force/customer service/online marketing software, Salesforce is for the big companies and Hubspot is for the small ones. But HubSpot is seeing strong growth its Enterprise tier, which launched in 2020. Big Enterprise customers could provide a catalyst for revenue, and puts it closer to Salesforce in terms of having big-boy software. The company’s offerings include:
Here are some important stats from last qtr:
HubSpot has tremendous opportunity to grow its market cap. The company’s market cap is roughly $35 billion, which is tiny when compared to Salesforce’s $273 billion. This company might be 10x the size in 5-10 years. Analysts give HUBS an Estimated Long-Term Growth Rate of 37% per year. But that’s a profit growth estimate, and the stock is currently selling on a price-to-sales estimate of 29x 2021 revenue estimates. HUBS is part of my Growth Portfolio and Aggressive Growth Portfolio. Earlier this year, HubSpot was named the #2 Best Global Software Seller according to users reviews on G2Crowd. HUBS was between Microsoft and Zoom in the ranking. At the analyst day yesterday, management said it sees huge growth opportunity Internationally. Last qtr, Domestic revenue rose 42% and accounted for 54% of total sales. International revenue up 68% and accounted for 46% of total sales. So overseas business could become a bigger piece of the pie than the American business very shortly. |
One Year Chart |
![]() The Est. LTG of 37% per year is great. There was no change in this figure since last qtr. |
Earnings Table |
![]() The revenue growth was fueled by increased demand for Professional and Enterprise products. According to management, the key driver of their growth is digital transformation, as a majority of customers indicated the advantage of managing their office website with one platform — powered by HubSpot — that is very easy to use. Annual Profit Estimates increased a bit. Management estimated that for the next qtr and full year 2021, total revenue will grow 43% and 44%, respectively. Qtrly Profit Estimates are for 57%, 30%, 58%, and 30% profit growth the next 4 qtrs. |

Bottom Line |
![]() I really like the HubSpot software, and want it to run my business. It has a great blend of being a place to store all my contacts — subscribers to the website as well as money management clients — and the ability to link it to social media sites to measure advertising metrics is a plus. Then the sales hub can organize conversations with potential clients. When my business grows, I can utilize the customer service part. I like this software better than Salesforce, personally. HUBS moves up from 11th to 6th in the Growth Portfolio Power Rankings. The stock moves from 10th to 7th in the Aggressive Growth Portfolio Power Rankings. |
