MOBILE DEVICE RECYCLING MARKET SNAPSHOT

Source: Sanford Bernstein, IBISWorld

The mobile device (phones, tablets) recycling industry is forecasted to experience growth of 37.1% annually over the next five years.

Smart-phone adoption will continue to grow at a rate of 7.9% through 2018.

175 million new devices are sold in the US annually, but less than 20% of all mobile devices are currently being recycled, indicating significant upside potential.

Americans replace their phones every 21.7 months, the highest rate of frequency of any country in the world.

The total market for used smartphones in the US is estimated to $6 billion.

RECENT DEVELOPMENTS

Source: Wall Street Journal, Bloomberg, Compass Intelligence

Raises $8M in financing (January 2013) and another $105M in October 2013. The company announced that it recycled 1.1M devices in a single month (May 2013).

Reaches $100M milestone in device payouts to customers (June 2013). In the same month, Gazelle announced that it would add 438 new jobs at its processing center in Kentucky. It has received $46.4M in funding as of July 2011.

Softbank agrees to pay $1.26B for a 57% stake in Brightstar (October 2013).

Disruption of existing business models and rapidly growing trends have spurred increased interest and investment flows into the mobile recycling space.

Announces no annual contract requirements or termination fees for customers in March 2013, prompting its stock price to raise by 61.8% (COB 5/16/14). In May 2014, the company announces 2.4M net new subscribers, making it the fastest growing mobile carrier in the US. In addition, the company announces that it will no longer be subsidizing the cost of new phones, which we expect will raise the demand for 2nd hand mobile devices.

KEY SUCCESS FACTORS

Source: NPD Group, IBISWorld

Increased government regulation will likely provide greater opportunities for the industry; stricter electronics recycling regulations result in a higher volume of recyclable phones for operators.

Regulations and Environmental Policy

55% of the 1,000 smartphone users surveyed said they would take advantage of trade in programs the next time they upgrade. Over 60% of respondents are willing to change retailers in exchange for a better trade-in value.

Increased Awareness from Consumers Regarding Trade In Programs

As purchases of industry-relevant products have grown, so has the rate of disposal of obsolete products. Early  adopters  will  continue  to  “trade  up”  from  previous  versions  to  the  latest  version  of  products  like  Apple’s  iPhone,  while  customers  that  never  owned  a  smartphone will find increasing options for ownership through the  industry’s  sale of used devices.

EXIT OPPORTUNITIES

Source: NPD Group, IBISWorld

We expect to incur a low debt-to-equity ratio based on the projected cash flows of the business and expected high profit margins. Therefore, we expect TronicsXchange to be a strong candidate for a dividend recap in lieu of other exit options.

Dividend Recapitalization

TronicsXchange’s rapidly growing business model, strong customer engagement, brand exposure in Southern California, proprietary technology, and physical retail presence may be extremely valuable to multiple players within the re-commerce industry.

A national retailer (GameStop, Target) or an asset recycler (Waste Management, Iron Mountain)  looking  to  participate  in  the  mobile  electronics  recycling  industry’s  high growth can choose to purchase TronicsXchange to realize operational and cost synergies and increase profit margins.

Strategic Acquisition

The high margin nature of the TronicsXchange business model, along with its strong per unit economics makes it an ideal candidate for a leveraged buyout from a private equity firm.

Consolidation activity is expected to increase concentration over the next five years, as larger recyclers and companies outside this industry begin buying smaller companies to expand their geographical reach and create supply-chain efficiencies.
