How Yoshitsu Co (NASDAQ: TKLF) Drove Growth Amid A Turbulent Beauty Market – 2022 In Review

Benzinga

By David Willey, Benzinga It has been a year of milestones for the Japanese beauty company Yoshitsu Co Ltd (NASDAQ: TKLF). Yoshitsu is a retailer and wholesaler of beauty and health products that saw a year of growth despite difficulties in the market. The beauty industry is growing, worth over $90 billion in China and $131 billion in Europe. Meanwhile, North America continues as its largest market at $364.8 billion. Traditional stores, especially pharmacies, still represent the largest segment of beauty and health product sales, though there is an increasing shift towards e-commerce that was partially motivated by the lockdowns of the past few years. Companies in the beauty and health space have looked to seek new solutions in 2022 to meet the changing market needs. One company that struggled was New York personal care icon Revlon (OTCMKTS: REVRQ). The company had a tough year, first filing for bankruptcy before being suspended and delisted by the New York Stock Exchange in October, 2022. Parisian personal care company L’Oreal SA (OTCPK: LRLCY) started a research and development (R&D) collaboration with Alphabet Inc. (NASDAQ: GOOGL) subsidiary Verily to better understand skin health and aging processes. American company Ulta Beauty Inc. (NASDAQ: ULTA) saw a net increase of income of 17% in the first half of 2022, and also launched its Beauty& campaign to revolutionize the beauty industry and change perspectives on how to understand beauty and health wellbeing. Tokyo-based Yoshitsu Co. saw its product portfolio of cosmetics, skincare, fragrances, and cosmetic applicators expand to sauces, condiments, and various food products. Despite market challenges resulting from strict Japanese and Chinese lockdowns, Yoshitsu expanded in the past year, opened more physical locations, and saw record company growth. A Series of Successes? Opened Brick-and-mortar Locations. While some companies permanently closed their brick-and-mortar stores, Yoshitsu has been expanding. In November 2022 it opened a warehouse in London, UK, to respond to strong European demand for its products. It also added an additional store in Hong Kong, with significant interest coming from China, which reportedly made up 75% of Yoshitsu's revenue in 2021. Tourist Locations. COVID was tough for companies as Japan was closed to tourists for two years following the pandemic. But when Japan opened up its borders, Yoshitsu was there. It opened various pickup locations, offering duty-free cosmetics to entice tourists, with sites at its Urawa and KoshigayaRyutsudanchi stores in Saitama, as well as in Nagano. Wholesale Success. The company has also handled market challenges by capitalizing on its robust network of 200+ wholesale partners. 95% of its revenue came from online stores, franchised stores and wholesale operations in 2021. Credit Agreement. In November the company entered into a revolving credit facility agreement with a syndicate of national banks. The agreement - for JPY 8.15 billion (about $55.82 million) - expands the opportunity to reinvest in the company and to fulfill a balanced capital allocation. Food Products. Successes made possible by steps like the credit agreement include Yoshitsu’s addition of sauces, dressings, and condiments products to its portfolio, entering a market worth over $21 billion. It diversified this plan by later adding a host of food products, including frozen and refrigerated items, processed food, and confectionery. Record Growth. Perhaps unsurprisingly after a strong year, Yoshitsu saw record revenue growth. Reflecting on the successes, Principal Executive Officer of Yoshitsu Mei Kanayama said: “Although the global economy has been filled with uncertainties, we are satisfied with the accomplishments achieved in our key strategic initiatives, including the completion of our initial public offering in January 2022 and the expansion of our market coverage with new stores and wholesale customers.” To learn more about Yoshitsu, visit its website.

90% of US Bettors Likely to Sign-Up with a New Sportsbook if Betting Marketplace Offered: WagerWire Study

WagerWire

WagerWire, an innovative marketplace for open sports bets, found in a new study that 90% of current sports bettors would likely sign up with a sportsbook that offered a secondary betting marketplace as part of its product suite. Additionally, nearly half of the non-bettors surveyed said that this concept would make them more likely to start betting online. The findings come from WagerWire’s final release of data from a 2022 independent study conducted by Leger, a leading market research and analytics company. Nearly 3-in-4 US bettors (72%) found the secondary market for bets to be an appealing product. In addition to driving increased signups, the study found it would also motivate gray-market and younger bettors to join the regulated market and increase the frequency and volume of the bets they make. When broken out by segment, 92% of gray market bettors and 92% of bettors ages 18-34 would be likely to sign up with a regulated sportsbook if it offered a secondary betting marketplace. “The state of the US sports betting industry is, ostensibly, an arms race. Since the onset of the latest economic downturn in early 2022, operators have been looking for new strategies, new technologies and new products to create new revenue streams and sustainably acquire and retain users,” said Zach Doctor, CEO of WagerWire. “These data findings prove the demand for a betting marketplace that we already knew existed from our rapidly growing and engaged community. They also establish a firm proof of concept and roadmap for how operators can utilize our product to drive user acquisition, retention, engagement, and most importantly, drive more handle and revenue. It is now clear in the data that a thriving marketplace for active sports bets makes for a more robust and efficient ecosystem, and unlocks value for both the users and sportsbooks.” The study found bettors would place more bets, riskier bets and larger bets if a secondary betting marketplace existed at their sportsbook. 76% - Likely to make more bets 76% - Spend more time on the sportsbook managing bets 73% - Likely to place riskier bets 72% - Place more bets with the intention of selling them before they are settled 72% - Likely to place larger wagers Additionally, bettors said they would increase volume in all types of bets if a secondary marketplace was available at their sportsbook. 84% - Increase in parlays 84% - Increase in straight bets 80% - Increase in future bets 78% - Increase in prop bets “We really view this as a fundamental economic principle and a natural evolution of the industry,” Doctor said. “Secondary markets exist in nearly every vertical because they give participants more optionality and access to competitive and transparent prices, whether that be for your concert tickets, stocks, sneakers, etc. WagerWire brings this proven concept to sports betting and empowers bettors to treat their bets as assets that can be bought and sold at any time at fair market-based prices. Bettors are no longer forced to decide between letting it ride, placing costly and inefficient hedge bets, or accepting a predatory cashout offer.” Doctor continued, “This also directly feeds into our other priorities at WagerWire, to drive increased bettor education and responsible gaming. When users have more agency over their outcomes, it leads to the sharing of more knowledge, information and best practices. With WagerWire, bettors will benefit from an ongoing exchange of ideas and the real-life application of managing their bets responsibly, which in turn is going to help create a more sustainable ecosystem in which participants make smarter, safer and more strategically-sound decisions. We actually see WagerWire as a critical part of a consumer protection framework where bettors have access to offramps for their bets at fair prices.” WagerWire’s mobile app is set to launch in the coming months with a free-to-play betting marketplace, syncing sportsbook accounts for real-time value tracking of bets, as well as original content and social features. This soft-launch will provide users the ability to explore and experience the secondary betting market while connecting with, learning from, and competing for prizes with other WagerWire community members. The study was completed between July 8 - July 21, 2022, including 500 U.S. sports bettors and 200 non-sports bettors. For more information on WagerWire and to sign-up for early access visit WagerWire.com, and join the community on Twitter @WagerWire. Stay tuned for additional data releases and research findings in the coming months. WagerWire believes that all bettors should have proven, confident options at their disposal. WagerWire empowers you to take control of your actions and view your bets as a portfolio of assets that can be bought and sold at any time. Seamlessly sync your favorite sportsbooks to track the real-time value of your bets, stack rewards, and play with celebrities or friends.

The services they offer are primarily academic writing. They also have editing and proofreading services, as well as rewriting and solving math problems.

This is why we base our decision about what company is the best on a certain set of criteria that we always apply. Below, we’ll explain these criteria to you to help you understand the depth of our research for every website and company.

Benefits of Hiring a top essay writing service You may be having doubts about hiring an essay writing service and having them handle your assignment for you. Maybe you don’t trust them enough or fear they’ll trick you. Below, we listed the top benefits that will help you change your mind. Expertise Instead of struggling to write the assignment yourself or hiring some shady freelance essay writer, you can have a writing expert do it instead. The services we’ve listed offer nothing but highly experienced and trained writers who can take care of any type of task you give them. Time-Saving High school and college students both lack the same thing - time. There’s so much to do in so little time, and they often find themselves swamped with academic tasks and private matters. Luckily, a huge benefit of hiring the best essay writer to write instead of you is that it’ll save you a ton of time. You'll be able to use this time to study, prepare for an exam, or simply rest.

FAQ about the websites to write essays Now, let’s take a look at the FAQs that are probably roaming your mind as well. We'll answer them to help you understand how these quality essay services work and benefit you. Is buying papers legal? Buying a paper is completely legal, and there’s no law stopping you from doing it. These websites provide you with a service, and you are fully entitled to spend your money as you like. These companies aren’t responsible for how you’ll use this paper, so that is all on you. Can anyone find out that I buy essays online? All of the companies we’ve listed full offer confidentiality to clients. This way, you can be certain that no one will ever know that you bought college papers online unless you tell them. Also, your private data is safe and not available to any third parties to use, which increases confidentiality. Why am I anonymous?

This way, both parties are much more at ease and have fewer worries to think about. With your identity being hidden, you can freely buy essays and not fear they will somehow become public. How to distinguish a reliable site from scammers? As we've already mentioned, there is a ton of custom essay writing companies offering writing services. But not all of them are credible. Some are just scammers who are looking to get you to pay and then leave you hanging with a poorly written essay. To distinguish a reliable site, you should read the best essay writing service reviews and pay attention to the criteria we’ve mentioned in the sections above. What if I need essay help urgently? Urgency is not a problem for the best essay writing websites. Their writers are trained to write exceptional papers with deadlines as tight as 3 hours. You will have to pay a higher price for such an urgent order, but they'll deliver a quality essay as per agreement. So, even if you forgot about a paper due and need one urgently, they'll be able to handle it. What are the cheapest writing companies?

But, if you read trusted review websites and gather enough information, you’ll be able to choose the services that are highly professional and offer quality papers. What essay writing services are legit? Not all essay writing services are legitimate. Many companies hire unreliable authors, overcharge, have hidden fees, or don't respect the confidentiality agreement. The best essay writing services online are those that have clear company policies they respect and guarantees that make sure their customers are protected. This is exactly what all four websites from our list above offer their customers. How do I find the best essay writing service? You need to do some thorough online research and cross-compare several most popular websites. You need to check what services they offer, what their customers are saying, and how professional they write. Your second option is to read the best custom essay writing service review and trust their research and facts. What problems might I encounter when hiring writers? Hiring a writer as your writing helper can be tricky. You don’t know these people and might have a hard time choosing the best match for your needs. Also, it might be hard to communicate with a writer who’s not from the United States due to the time zone difference. Finally, a writer may not be as experienced in your subject matter and could lack the knowledge to write your paper. Luckily, none of this is the case with our top 4 sites that write essays for you.

Asure Software (NASDAQ: ASUR) and H&R Block (NYSE: HRB) Partner to Streamline Tax Preparation for Small Businesses, Analysts Raise Price Target on ASUR

Benzinga

By Spotlight Growth Each year, millions of Americans file their taxes, a process that can be both time-consuming and complicated. The tax code is complex, and the burden of understanding and completing tax forms accurately falls on the individual taxpayer. One way small-to-medium-sized businesses (SMBs) can help compete with larger companies for top talent is through leveraging human capital management (HCM) technologies to help offer their employees the ability to streamline their filing process. Asure Software (NASDAQ: ASUR), a global provider of cloud-based Human Capital Management (HCM) software solutions, just recently took big steps to help employees of SMBs to streamline their tax prep and filing headaches after announcing an integration with H&R Block (NYSE: HRB). Asure and H&R Block Integration Aims to Help SMBs Streamline Tax Season In January 2023, Asure Software announced it has entered into collaboration with H&R Block, in which Asure’s tax platform will be integrated with the tax prep company’s systems. The integration will specifically allow employees to electronically access their W-2 forms directly from Asure into the H&R Block tax software. This eliminates the need for manually entering tax information, which not only saves time and productivity but also helps prevent potential errors. Aside from saving time and money, the integration is seen as a meaningful development in giving SMBs the ability to compete against larger competitors for top talent. By integrating with a household-name brand like H&R Block, SMBs can demonstrate to their employees that their time and convenience is valued. "We are excited to partner with H&R Block to provide employees of our customers with a seamless and efficient way to prepare their taxes. This integration is a great example of how technology can make life easier for employees and allows small businesses to offer services previously only available at large companies," stated Pat Goepel, Chairman, and CEO of Asure. H&R Block is among the largest tax preparation companies across the United States. As of December 2022, H&R Block maintained a footprint of 8,940 locations across 4,080 cities in 51 U.S. states and territories. In 2021, the tax prep company prepared over 21.6 million tax returns. ASUR: 4 Analysts Reiterate “Buy” and Update Price Targets in January 2023 Unlike the overall stock market in 2022, Asure had a very successful year. As once-tried-and-true blue chip technology stocks saw performance collapse, Asure posted a positive 8.5% gain during the calendar year 2022. The stock's performance was backed by very strong and meaningful fundamental developments made by the company. As a result of the continued underlying growth in its HCM solutions and SMBs looking to streamline operations and cut costs during an economically unstable period, analysts covering the stock have recently taken the opportunity to reiterate their bullish view of the company. In January 2023 alone, Asure has already received several analyst reiterations on its stock: Jeff Van Rhee of Craig-Hallum was the first to reiterate his bullish stance on the HCM provider. Mr. Van Rhee reiterated his “buy” rating for Asure and increased his price target to $14 from $10. Joshua Reilly of Needham reiterated his “buy” rating on Asure in mid-January and set a twelve-month price target of $14. Eric Martinuzzi of Lake Street is the latest analyst covering Asure to reiterate a “buy” rating and increase their price target to $12 from $11. Equity research analysts covering the HCM industry for Cowen reiterated an “outperform” rating and raised their price target to $13 from $8. “We anticipate a clean beat supported by healthy demand, stable US SMB employment trends, increasing retention & attach rates, and ASUR's more consistent & strengthened execution on various strategic initiatives,” stated the Cowen analysts. Raymond James Highlights Asure’s Outperformance in HCM Report The notable investment bank, Raymond James (NYSE: RJF), highlighted Asure’s 2022 outperformance in its end-of-year report for the HCM industry. The bank highlighted Asure as the top-performing software & internet subsector of the HCM industry over the last month, last three months, and the last twelve months. In fact, the report shows that Asure greatly outperformed during all three surveyed periods in 2022 compared to its competitors. Over the last month, Raymond James list Asure Software’s stock performance at 19%. The runners-up, Docebo, Inc. (NASDAQ: DCBO) and Xero Limited (ASX: XRO) (OTC: XROLF), returned 3.8% and 0.8%, respectively. During the prior three-month period, Asure’s 63.3% performance was nearly double of the second best performing company, New Work SE's 34.6%, and Oracle Corporation's (NYSE: ORCL) 33.8% returns. The last twelve months have not been kind to the stock market overall. The HR tech and HCM sector was not completely immune from the overall economic slowdown. Despite these headwinds, Asure Software's 19.3% return is not only the best, but it is also the only company in the software & internet subsector to post a positive gain. HealthStream (NASDAQ: HSTM) was the next best-performing stock with a return of -5.8% and Oracle took third with a -6.3% return. Despite Asure’s outperformance, Raymond James continues to see strong potential in the company in 2023. The investment bank estimates the HCM software provider’s estimated total enterprise value-to-revenue (TEV/Revenue) for 2023 to reach a multiple of 2.2x. The total enterprise value-to-EBITDA (TEV/EBITDA) estimates for 2023 come in at a multiple of 15.2x. These valuation estimates become only more impressive when compared to the software & internet subsector's average metrics. For 2023, Raymond James estimates the subsector will see a TEV/Revenue multiple of 5.0x and a TEV/EBITDA multiple of 17.7x. This data suggests that Raymond James may believe Asure Software is still undervalued compared to its competitors, despite its impressive rally in 2022. Overall, Asure is off to a hot start in 2023 after announcing a tax prep integration with H&R Block. Asure continues to strengthen its HCM solutions through key partnerships with brands like Equifax (NYSE: EFX), PrisimHR, Jackson Lewis Law Firm, and now H&R Block. Analysts continue to see a strong outlook for the company, as strong partnerships, meaningful growth, and an ideal economic backdrop all work in Asure’s favor.

MIAX® Is Making Volatility Trading More Accessible To Retail Investors With Its Volatility Products: SPIKES Options, Futures, And ETFs

Benzinga

By Rachael Green, Benzinga With persistent inflation and the aggressive interest rate hikes from the Federal Reserve, the stock market in 2022 experienced its most volatile year since 2009. The S&P 500 has been on a shaky decline since January 2022, and despite a few short-lived rebounds, it was down 19.4% at the end of 2022. Intraday volatility — the percentage change in share price from market open to market close — averaged 1.84% in 2022, compared to its 40-year average of 1.3%. Since volatility is often negatively correlated with equities — when equity prices decline, volatility increases — using a volatility index to hedge portfolios with profitable trades based on volatility assumptions is becoming an increasingly popular way for investors to make lemonade out of lemons and turn market swings into profitable trades. To make this kind of volatility trading strategy accessible to more investors, MIAX, a technology-driven leader that builds and operates regulated exchanges, is developing a portfolio of trading products based on the SPIKES® Volatility Index (SPIKE). What the SPIKES Index does differently and why that matters MIAX collaborated with T3 Index to create products based on the SPIKES Index. The SPIKES Index is intended to provide an improved measure of equity market volatility and act as an alternative to the Chicago Board Options Exchange’s Volatility Index (VIX). The SPIKES Volatility Index tracks SPY options to measure the expected 30-day volatility in the SPDR S&P 500 Exchange Traded Fund (ETF), the most actively traded ETF in the world. By tracking SPY options rather than the SPX options, with the latter used by VIX, and by pulling pricing data from all 16 U.S. options exchanges rather than just the Chicago Board Options Exchange (Cboe), SPIKES seeks more accurate, real-time pricing data to use as a basis for its volatility measure. Its proprietary price-dragging technique for capturing live options prices also aims to offer more precise and stable index movements by using the pricing data from actual trades rather than approximating prices based on the midpoint of the bid-ask spread of the options. These methodology features and the fact that it updates every 100 milliseconds rather than every 15 seconds are among the key reasons MIAX built its ecosystem of volatility trading products around the SPIKES Index. SPIKES Options and Futures While investors cannot invest directly in the SPIKES Index, MIAX offers a portfolio of products based on the index that traders can use to trade their volatility assumptions. The SPIKES options and futures offered by MIAX, turn volatility into a tradeable asset class. Trading in penny increments since October 1, 2022, SPIKES Options and Futures are designed to be more cost-efficient by offering the potential for reduced trading costs, tighter bid/ask spreads, and improved execution prices. Investors feeling anxious about current market conditions can use SPIKES Options (SPIKE) for downside protection by buying call options that could increase in value in the event of a market decline. In futures trading, investors can hedge their positions with SPIKES Futures (SPK): when taking a long position in S&P futures, they can buy long SPIKES Futures to hedge against potential losses since the volatility index is negatively correlated with the market. Investors, however, are not limited to hedging strategies. SPIKES Futures can also be used to trade term structure. Term structure refers to the relationship between implied volatility and time to expiration in futures contracts. If futures prices are trending up, an upward-sloping term structure suggests that volatility is currently lower than it’s anticipated to be in the future. If futures prices are trending down, a downward-sloping term structure suggests volatility is currently higher than it’s anticipated to be in the future. For traders, then, a basic term structure strategy is to buy futures during downward slopes (when expected future volatility is lower) and sell (or short) them during upward slopes (when expected future volatility is higher). SPIKES Volatility ETFs The latest addition to the SPIKES ecosystem, Convexity Shares 1x SPIKES Futures ETF (SPKX) and Convexity Shares Daily 1.5x SPIKES Futures ETF (SPKY), launched on August 16, 2022. Intended as an alternative way for traders to hedge or capitalize on volatility, the SPKX and SPKY seek to match the performance of the SPIKE Front 2 Futures Index, which tracks the returns from a daily rolling long position in the SPIKES Futures contracts traded on the Minneapolis Grain Exchange (MGEX™).
