In 18 days time , back in the FTSE250.
Good for the share price at least in the short term as the tracker funds need to buy.

IC article today on the subprime market remains cautious about where Prov or VANQ is going.

Yes but the last director purchase was on 27th September 22. Inline with company expectations each quarter and yet no purchases. Does seem a bit strange considering how positive they are about the business.

Directors can't buy shares now as its a restricted period from the year end date 31-Dec until the full results are made publicly available end of March. As they will be party to far more of the financial info which is not covered in TU which will be in the full results. Once they are published they are no longer insiders and can buy. There are similar restrictive periods throughout the year, usually between period ends and interim or full results.

PFG said that its CEO is to step down, while its fourth quarter trading remains in line with market expectations. Really, so why is he stepping down? Knowing how the PFG operate, he was asked to step down or bye bye. Not looking good for the full year report. Get shot of the CEO before the report comes out, so they can now say they have taken action to turn the business around with a new CEO and by changing the company name. They dug themselves a big hole and virtually impossible to get out of it without making changes and a new direction. Expect the customer growth to be down or minimal. Either way I reckon the increase of dead wood customers will outweigh any growth.

...or maybe we should have. New Name, new CEO and TU in line.

So the century old Prov will disappear.

When I asked on here last year, can anyone see where the customer growth was coming from in the next year, nobody replied. I wonder why? Maybe everyone else had the same thoughts. I've just watched the IPF investor webinar Mexico Home Credit 18_01_2023. The good old solid PPC business before the FCA got involved. Worth watching this as the customer growth potential is huge, unlike PFG.

There have been stellar returns this last month and a bit on financial recovery stocks that were at rock bottom. Nat West, Legal and General, Ashmore Group to name three which I bought at the nadir in early October. ( and of course here, which I didn't). Obvs they aren't as cheap now. Two on my watch list are Hargreaves and Man Group which didn't really join the party. Not advice, just my personal thoughts.

''Though I am a bit overweight in financials such is the value on offer.''
I've been trawling fin services and only found junk. Any ideas on where better to look?

Yep I like the balance sheet too. It's pretty solid, the long term borrowings of 900m are almost offset by 700m in cash. The loan book is therefore virtually unleveraged and it trades at a fraction of balance sheet value.

I'm not a holder. Anything super sensitive to UK plc is in the dog house at the moment. The fact it has recently risen from 130p ( be it a very brief capitulation) also makes me feel like I have missed the boat. Nevertheless the price should improve from here. If it doesn't I may get interested. Though I am a bit overweight in financials such is the value on offer.

Net Assets on Balance Sheet are £600m+ including current provisioning deductions.
Current share price values company at £350m.
So with c240m shares in issue you're looking at £2.50 per share on a net asset basis.
Current EPS is 3.5x (should be closer to 10x).
Market seems to forget PFG have shifted focus to near prime and in general the customers have higher resilience to downturns.
Read H1-21 investor presentation on the website. They already hold specific provisions for cost of living and rising interest rates.
Over sold. 2 or 3 times over.
Despite lack of transparency from management.

Q3 includes the phrase in-line quite a lot but has been met be further decline in the share price this morning.
I note the top rate of interest on their personal loans is 44.9% APR. Bit of a contrast to the return on my investment here about 10 yrs ago, averaging about £33!

I did try to warn investors on 11th Aug 2021 when the share price was £3.40 and again on 1st June 2022. If PFG doesn't increase the customer base, there will be big problems. A small increase will not be good enough as dead wood customers will have already started to accumulate again, after clearing out all the dead wood the previous year.
Now the chickens have come home to roost.
Can anyone see where the growth is going to come from in the next 12 months?

Gervaise Williams of Diverse Income Trust likes the current PFG valuation and yield.
