Episode notes
DocuSign Adoption Remains Strong
- DocuSign's e-signature product gained massive adoption during COVID and remains widely used with over a billion users and 1.7M paying accounts.
- Revenue growth slowed after the pandemic but has stabilized and recently ticked up with billings growing faster than revenue.
Short Contracts And Capital Allocation
- A large share (~62%) of DocuSign contracts are one year or shorter, which makes revenue relatively short-term and potentially volatile.
- Management is returning cash via buybacks rather than aggressively reinvesting, which raises questions about growth prioritization.
Fine-Tune, Don’t Overreact To Macro
- Avoid making wholesale portfolio shifts solely on short-term macro headlines; fine-tune allocations instead.
- Add to high-conviction positions in both good and bad markets while monitoring life changes and risk needs.
