Hansen: We Think Competitor Switching Costs Limit Long-Run Growth Potential
We expect Hansen to focus on pursuing inorganic growth opportunities, either through geographic expansion of existing functions or expansion into new functional adjacencies.
Hansen Technologies Ltd HSN
Bulls Say, Bears Say
Bulls
Hansen has high risk-based switching costs in its billing software products.
Bears
Hansen operates in a mature market, meaning organic growth can only be achieved by competing directly for the existing customers of competitors, who also enjoy high risk-based switching costs.
