20/9/2024 14:35 | Fintel (FNTL.L) -Interim Results In a low interest rate environment, companies have gotten used to be able to buy pretty much anything and pay daft multiples and get to claim an earnings-enhancing acquisition, which the market then bids up the shares to reflect. Fintel appear to have found out to their cost that what you pay matters. These results show that their acquisitions have proven to be earnings dilutive after interest costs. Perhaps this will come good as they grow (and interest rates fall), but not within any reasonable forecasting horizon.In response to this, broker Zeus took 7% out of their forecast. This means that EPS has failed to grow for several years despite the company being on an acquisition spree. This begs the question: How on earth are people paying 20x earnings for this serial underperformer? Mark Simpson: Small Caps Life Exited a couple of years ago and currently still have no position here. | masurenguy | |

Structural headwinds in the mortgage market and the rapid, temporary growth in consolidation has led to reduction in member numbers in this division" | scrapheap | |
05/7/2024 16:19 | In this upbeat interview, joint CEO Matt Timmins of Fintel takes me through the strategic rationale behind this week's £14.6m acquisition of 'threesixty', how the deal fits into the wider group, and where the business hopes to be in 5 years' time. | brummy_git | |

02/4/2024 11:39 | As a customer of Fintel I won't be investing in this business as I suspect their milking of members is likely to see significant exits before long. First their annual increase in membership charge of the higher of 5% or inflation which saw a rise of 10% in charges last month will have to be broken eventually - its unsustainable. Secondly they've just emailed to put up the cost of the client management software by 17% from October. Boasting about the extra they are getting out of their subscribers in their listed results is not great PR either. I suggest watching reported member numbers carefully to see if this starts to happen. That should be a key metric for them going forward to be judged on. | scrapheap | |

08/11/2022 08:11 | A slow burner here with the shareprice back to the IPO of 170p when it first listed in April 2018. I'm currently sitting on the sidelines having taken a marginal profit and exited @205p after the last TU at the end of July. I still think that this is a solid business with good forward prospects but it really needs to re-rate when we have a more positive market environment. This is now sitting on my watchlist as a potential re-entry candidate at some point in the future when prospects are more promising. | masurenguy | |

28/7/2022 06:48 | Solid progress, positive cashflow, £7.6m net cash and plenty of financial headroom for both organic growth and strategic acquisitions. Trading Update Robust core business performance drives continued growth following strategic disposals Fintel issues a trading update for the six months ended 30 June 2022. Financial Highlights -- Core revenue growth of c.9% to £27.1m (HY21: £24.9m) -- Total revenue growth of 2% to £32.2m (HY21: £31.7m) -- Adjusted EBITDA up 5% to £8.7m (HY21: £8.3m) -- Improved Adjusted EBITDA margin of 27.0% (H1 2021: 26.1%) -- Significant financial resources with £7.6m cash and undrawn £45m RCF -- Underlying operating cash flow conversion expected to exceed 120% (HY21: 135%) Operational update In the first six months of 2022 the Business has continued to trade well with strong Core revenue(1) growth in line with the Board's expectations and outpacing the revenue impact of strategic disposals. Continued progress in the conversion of Distribution as a Service ("DaaS") revenue has seen a greater proportion of these existing revenues recognised in H1. On a full year basis, the current core revenue expectation is trading at the upper end of the range of our medium term objective. With the continued digitisation of the Business and successful conversion and scaling of DaaS, earnings quality continues to grow in absolute terms with SaaS and subscription income delivering c.66% of our expanded Core revenues. Underlying operating cash flow conversion remains strong, in excess of 120%. £7.6m of cash at 30 June 2022, together with the £45m Revolving Credit Facility fully undrawn, provides significant financial resources to fund growth both through organic investment and strategic acquisitions. Fintel intends to publish its interim results for the 6 months ended 30 June on 20 September 2022. Matt Timmins, Joint CEO of Fintel plc, said:"We are delighted to report continued solid trading and earnings quality in the first half of the year, in line with our strategic goals and Board expectations. Growth in our Core business has been strong and in-line with the top end of our medium-term objectives communicated in our CMD (Dec20)with the balance of new revenues continuing to come through SaaS and subscriptions. Increasing regulation continues to drive market demand for our unique Services and fintech offering. Our strong balance sheet and cash flow conversion provides the financial agility to pursue strategic acquisitions and we remain confident of delivering our strategic goals and growth ambitions." | masurenguy | |
19/7/2022 06:25 | Increased regulation drives demand for Defaqto services Fintel announces that is has expanded key product lines in its research and fintech division, operating under the Defaqto brand, in response to ongoing market demand driven by new regulation. Defaqto, the leading financial information, ratings and fintech business, has seen consistent growth in usage over the last three years for both its Risk Ratings and Investment Reviews. Risk Ratings provide an independent risk mapping of a financial product and enables wealth managers and financial advisers to select suitable investment portfolios for their clients. Due to the growth in regulation and focus on investment suitability, this service has grown to cover over 1,500 financial products. Investment Reviews, which combine qualitative and quantitative analysis of an investment proposition to give intermediaries and consumers further insights at point of sale, has expanded to cover over 400 propositions in response to market demand. The business has also seen greater demand for both its Matrix software solution, which enables product providers to assess the competitiveness of a proposition through benchmarking the market, as well as the Star Ratings service, an expert assessment of a product's quality, features and benefits, which is recognised by 75% of consumers. The new era of Consumer Duty and Fair Value pricing is expected to further increase demand for Defaqto services as well of those of sister company, SimplyBiz, who provide regulatory support services to 3000 intermediary firms. John Milliken, Defaqto CEO commented:"As we enter a new regulatory era of Consumer Duty and Fair Value Pricing, Defaqto is uniquely positioned to support product providers such as banks and general insurers in designing appropriate products evidencing the suitability and quality of their propositions. With the largest product database in the UK, we're able to provide crucial market insights that allow them to consider consumer suitability during product design, whilst our independent, expert Ratings and Reviews help to educate intermediaries and consumers in assessing the appropriateness of a product at point of purchase. We expect this demand to continue with the incoming Consumer Duty Regulation driving an increased focus on product fit and consumer outcomes, and as we continue to develop the insights and solutions the market needs, we are well positioned for future growth. Defaqto was acquired by Fintel in 2019 to support the group's rapid digitisation as it focuses on developing insight and data led services such as the 'Managed Distribution Service' - a first of its kind subscription-based service spanning research, data, and distribution which has contributed to the increasing levels of recurring revenues generated by the Company (SaaS and subscription revenues represented 66% of core revenues in 2021). The continued demand for Defaqto's research services further underpins current strategic growth plans of the Group. Fintel intends to publish a pre-close announcement ahead of the publication of its interim financial results in September." | masurenguy | |

As a result, the firm has partnered with insurance, investment, and mortgage providers. This initiative was explained by the cash hike of £7.8m from £2.6m last year. Given the solid cash performance, P/FCF reached 13.1x, which is above most peers across the industrial sector, which in turn resulted in a robust EPS growth of 12.6%, hence enabling market participants to optimise returns on investment.
