"people cannot redeem loans they were told they would be able to do this" :

if they have the cash, they cannot repay their loan? really???

Dead cats do bounce! I think this is because the market was expecting worse news than this.

Actually after today's report in the mail on Sunday I want to revise my prediction on price for FC I reckon 60p now considering it's reporting how people are battling to get money back, also article under main one shows how you can get money back by letting your loan run out over 4 years or you can hope FC can arrange the sale of your loan at a ridiculous discount. FCA are going to crack down heavily on peer to peer lenders I predictived whe they first came on market that this was the next PPI scandal.

Toonarmy2 - you've called it right each time. How low can this go, 70s?

[thetoonarmy2] 17/9/2019 16:18

Getting closer to the 90p target I had.

They can burn through £270m very quickly. They don't have a back book to generate margin. They have also no experience of a market downturn.

These were asy over priced at ipod but unlike some of the other dogs they did raise plenty of cash. They had £270 million at the moment against a £426 market cap.

Read my post about this share. Fair value is 80p or less.

[robizm] 07/8/2019 13:17

They must have a fair bit of cash left.

Aladin, You said on the 5th july back to 180p in 2 weeks ? Well how did that go?? my prediction still stands at 90p next stop.

Aladin think you need to give that lamp of yours an extra rubbing mate. :)

maybe you got carried away . founders make heaps of money floating it and small punters and investors suffer ! Typical and a disgrace

[aladin1033] 08/7/2019 08:21

Wow what did i say these are now heading back to 180 this week

[aladin1033] 06/7/2019 10:22

This is the real world! What did you expect with brexit? Be realistic its not bad news, bad news is revenues dropping they will grow 20% instead of 40% which is brilliant giving the circumstances, how many businesses do you know that are growing revenues 20% a year? Charts poused for a rerate next week! Can see it above 180 , certainly over 175p by Fri next week this is a trade its as simple as that most on here bought in higher and have a grudge but for me as a newcomer with an average of sub 139p its a good opportunity, i cpuld have bought at 115-120 but decided to wait to see which way its heading even though i knew i would pay more and i am now confident this is rerating gla

Lots of scaremongering. Just 2 weeks ago it was valued at 250p by the markets whats changed since? Revenue growth will be 20% instead of 40% some idiots think revenues will drop 50% to make things clear revenue is still increasing so they are still growing its not the current revenue that will drop but the projected growth. For exanple a company making £200m projected growth 40% = 280m instead its 20% which means projected growth would be £240m just 15% lower . Will rerate back to around the 180p mark by the end of next week. Point is revenues are still growing, yes they are loss making but the market knew this at 250p

Those big sells were holding it back should see a noce rise to 180 next week

[aladin1033] 05/7/2019 11:28

Revenue up 30%, Loans under management of £3.5 BILLION up 37%, what a cracking buy this share is now. A massive market over reaction to the slowdown in rate of increase (not reduction) in business, which was always on the cards.

[aladin1033] 05/7/2019 11:00

Rerate happening folks £1.80 next week

"For a company whose fortunes are so closely tied to the economic cycle, and which remains heavily loss-making, I think that a large dose of scepticism is justified."
