Where to get the important operating figures of the company?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Due to time constraints on the day, I replied very briefly: the average investor can read the &#8220;<a href=\"http:\/\/wsj.com\" data-type=\"URL\" data-id=\"wsj.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Wall Street Journal<\/a>&#8220;, &#8220;<a href=\"http:\/\/barrons\" data-type=\"URL\" data-id=\"barrons\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Barons Weekly<\/a>&#8220;, &#8220;<a href=\"http:\/\/seekingalpha.com\" data-type=\"URL\" data-id=\"seekingalpha.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">SeekingAlpha<\/a>&#8220;, or &#8220;<a href=\"https:\/\/finance.yahoo.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Yahoo Finance<\/a>&#8221; on the day when the companies quarterly earning result they track are published. The media listed above will release comments on the company&#8217;s quarterly results n the same day. In their article, in addition to the financial figures in the earnings report, they will definitely mention the company&#8217;s key operating figures. This is the most effort-saving, and certainly you won&#8217;t miss the operating numbers that Wall Street care most about.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_key_operating_figures_of_the_business_are_important\"><\/span>The key operating figures of the business are important<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>I have stated in sections 6-5 of my new book<span style=\"font-size: revert;\">\u300a<\/span><a style=\"font-size: revert;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.books.com.tw\/products\/0010889106?sloc=main\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\u5341\u500d\u80a1<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.books.com.tw\/products\/0010935641?sloc=main\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\u6cd5\u5247<\/a><span style=\"font-size: revert;\">\u300b<\/span>&#8220;The Rules of 10 Baggers&#8221;, that the important operating figures disclosed by companies are extremely important to investors.

According to my personal experience, many cases have proved that some companies have voluntarily announced the operating figures that have not been announced before, which proves that the figures and reports of the previous market survey companies are not far from the actual figures of the company. In short, the reports of market research companies are very professional and in-depth, and the analysis of various operating figures and competitiveness is usually accurate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Famous_market_research_company\"><\/span>Famous market research company<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>I have mentioned some of the important market research companies on page 254 of 4-1 of my book, <span style=\"font-size: revert;\">\u300a<\/span><a style=\"font-size: revert;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.books.com.tw\/products\/0010889106?sloc=main\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\u8d85\u7d1a\u6210\u9577\u80a1\u6295\u8cc7\u6cd5\u5247<\/a><span style=\"font-size: revert;\">\u300b<\/span>&#8220;The Rules of Super Growth Stocks Investing&#8221;. The following are some well-known companies that are worthy of investors to refer to their published industry market surveys:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Nielsen: It is a long-established and responsible professional market research company that covers almost a variety of topics, but mainly focuses on the civilian production industry.<\/li><li>Statista and Insider Intelligence: Mainly focus on the technology industry, and industries that are more concerned by general investors.<\/li><li>Customer Satisfaction Score Survey NPS (Net Promoter Score): This is one of the main reference data used by many investors to judge whether a listed company is popular in the market and whether it has sustained competitiveness.<\/li><li>CIRP (Consumer Intelligence Research Partners): It has the supreme influence in the United States. It represents the voice of the general American public, and it often releases reports on the use of products or services, which will influence consumers&#8217; purchasing intentions. Many manufacturers will also refer to its report as a reference for product improvement.<\/li><li>The J.D. Power Vehicle Quality Report is the auto industry&#8217;s top market research report, and its regular reports are powerful enough to influence the intentions of most Americans to buy a car, and to influence car rankings and reviews, and every automaker takes it seriously.<\/li><li>U.S. Situation Survey: Pew Research Center.<\/li><li>Industry forecasts: Professional consulting firms such as McKinsey report is very influential.<\/li><li>Website traffic and visit statistics: SimilarWeb or Google&#8217;s Analytics service.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_to_use_market_research_company\"><\/span>How to use market research company?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>With the names of these market research companies or units, next time you can enter the name of each market research company, the industry you are interested in, and the operating indicators you want to know on the Internet search engine.

Even these companies will have their own software marketplaces, allowing their developers to sell software that meets their needs on their own company&#8217;s software marketplaces. Such a situation will be the trend and normality of the technology industry in the future, to demonstrate the influence and external penetration of various companies. <\/li><li>For example, in the 11th version of Microsoft&#8217;s Windows operating system (Windows 11), Microsoft used it to hype the powerful functions that can run Alphabet&#8217;s Android operating system programs built-in, and the integrated Android program software market is from Amazon software marketplace, not the Google Play software store of Alphabet. This shows two things: Alphabet is reluctant to let Microsoft get its hands on its Android operating system, and secondly, Amazon not only has the long-term market share of the first AWS cloud computing platform for enterprises, but has already extended its power from e-commerce to software.<\/li><\/ul><\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"e-commerce\"><\/span>e-commerce<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Industry market research professional:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Industry Market Research Expert: Insider Intelligence<\/li><li>Annual ecommerce report: Adobe<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Key Operating Indicators:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Annual Active Users (AAU)<\/li><li>Gross Merchandise Value (GMV)<\/li><li>Parcels Delivered<\/li><li>Gross Purchase Order<\/li><li>Cross border GMV<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Fintech\"><\/span>Fintech<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Total Transaction Value (TPV)<\/li><li>Transactions<\/li><li>Lending loss rate<\/li><li>Cumulative Loan<\/li><li>Take rate<\/li><li>Cross border transaction amount (Cross border TPV)<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"SaaS_software_and_subscription_model_businesses\"><\/span>SaaS software and subscription model businesses<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Industry market research professional:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Cloud computing: Canalys<\/li><li>Mobile App: App Annie\u3001Sensor Tower<\/li><li>Game: Newzoo<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Key Operating Indicators:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Net Dollar Retention Rate (NDRR)<\/li><li>Annual Recurring Revenue (ARR)<\/li><li>Monthly Recurring Revenue (MRR)<\/li><li>Churn Rate<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Social_network_or_metaverse\"><\/span>Social network or metaverse<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Monthly Active Users (MAU)<\/li><li>Daily Active Users (DAU)<\/li><li>Average revenue per user (ARPU)<\/li><li>Average time online (Hours engaged)<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Semiconductor_hardware_device\"><\/span>Semiconductor, hardware device<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Industry market research professional:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Wide range of industry surveys: IDC, Gartners<\/li><li>Semiconductors: IC Insights, TrendForce, WSTS, SEMI (Semiconductor Industry Association International), SIA<\/li><li>PC Industry, End Devices: Canalys<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Key Operating Indicators:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Average Selling Price (ASP): Semiconductors are typically bulk products, and pricing usually adjusts with market supply and demand.<\/li><li>Shipped Units<\/li><li>Installed Units: It is the most important operational indicator for semiconductor equipment manufacturers.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Medical_devices\"><\/span>Medical devices<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>US FDA and EU CE certification and authorization progress<\/li><li>Product in Pipeline<\/li><li>Installed Units<\/li><li>Procedures have been performed<\/li><li>Patients<\/li><li>Surgical Staff Trained<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Biotech\"><\/span>Biotech<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Products listed<\/li><li>Product in Pipeline<ul><li>It can be further divided into the products under development in the first phase, the products under development in the second phase, and the products under development in the third phase.<\/li><li>Drugs in U.S. FDA and EU EMA drug approval applications<\/li><\/ul><\/li><li>Combination of drug indications (Indications) for each product<\/li><li>Patent<\/li><li>The term of the patent for each drug<\/li><li>Expiring drug combinations<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"118\" height=\"103\" src=\"https:\/\/www.granitefirm.com\/blog\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/10\/op-1600x1200-1.jpg\" alt=\"operation\" class=\"wp-image-14824\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><em><strong>Disclaimer<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><em>The content of this site is the author\u2019s personal opinions and is for reference only.
