Very fast growing insurance software company that is still dirt cheap even after its huge run up. Might be due for a dip in the short term but could double from here in the next few years.

I just found out about this stock recently, but wow is there a lot to like.

First, lets look just at the financials. HUGE top line & bottom line growth, with an A++ 39% operating margin. WOW! Its not to often you can find a company like that. In addition, 80% of their revenue comes from recurring sales to existing customers, so they have a nice steady stream of income to fall back on should current sales slip.

Second, from a business perspective they seem to have a lot going for them. They are trying to become the back office program for anything that touches any form of insurance, annuities, life, health, auto....etc. They seem to have a big time lead on any rival, and a company like this carries big time switching cost fee's. Look at their retention rate, 99% over the last 5 years! They've got to be doing something right for their customers to keep that kind of loyalty.

Too much to write about here, but this one seems like a HUGE winner, with 20+% growth coming of the next few years, and only trading at a 16 multiple? Back up the truck on EBIX!

This company is building an on-line market place for insurance providers. As they grow network effects build barriers to entry. They have been very successful in signing up insurers which drives more customers to their site. This is a winning strategy that has driven large growth by other internet pioneers such as eBay, Amazon, Priceline and Google. This is a chance to get in early on an emerging internet growth stock.
