Hyperion Solutions (HYSL) - An Analytical Gorilla?

An SI Board Since August 1998

Introduction Market Data Compact

Hyperion Solutions is the software company that combined the dominant vendor of Financial Analytical applications (Hyperion Software) with the dominant vendor of OLAP engines and tools (Arbor Software).

Combined with an ugly market for small cap tech stocks and justified nervousness over a large software merger, both stocks have gotten hammered since the deal was announced in May, 1998.

Most applications of enterprise software are transactional in orientation. (ERP, backoffice) Hyperion Solutions will be an end to end provider of analytical applications, tools, services and partnerships. The benefits from being able to analyze the wealth of data stored from transactional applications are enormous.

The current combined growth rate of the two companies is around 37% per year. However, Hyperion Software (the larger company) was in the midst of seeing a major acceleration in revenues in its Pillar, Enterprise and MBA product lines (now 50% of revenues). ARSW was just starting to see the benefits of its emerging partnerships with companies like IBM, PeopleSoft, and I2.

Is Hyperion Solutions poised to become the next Oracle?
