10/9/2018 13:09 | So, knowledgeable readers on this board. What are the SCH implications of this post? Now, it could well be positive as more people have to use wallets but does this increase chargeback risks? Germany: law and payments – landed in it… A court ruling in Munich last week regarding online gaming has perhaps not got the attention it deserves. Landesbank Berlin attempted to claim against a customer who refused to pay a gambling debt incurred through his Visa card, claiming he did not owe the money since the underlying activity was illegal under German law. It was clear that Landesbank Berlin was aware that the transaction was gambling related as it was 7995 coded and incurred a sector-specific premium charge (significantly, lumping betting, gaming and lottery together). The court found in favour of the customer and Landesbank Berlin is not appealing, meaning this decision enters German case law. This is potentially a very significant ruling on three levels, in our view. First, is the fairly obvious and immediate risk of other German customers jumping on the bandwagon and starting a potentially huge chargeback cost (which could easily run into high single digit % sales). Second, banks will be very wary of this ruling and even more are likely now to block ‘visible’ The third impact is perhaps the most serious. The first two are standard risks of grey market operations and any operators or suppliers caught up in the issues should not be all that surprised (if they are it arguably raises governance / competence questions). The broader risk is that the decision almost certainly causes another reason (or excuse) for banks to examine their online gambling risk exposure more generally; typically not splitting hairs about “grey” or “regulatedR While grey market banking and processing issues continue to plague the online sector, and especially while a critical mass of questionable “workarounds | trentendboy | |
06/9/2018 19:04 | I've trailed out now as chart weakened and I don't want gap risk next week especially in current market conditions | davr0s | |
06/9/2018 12:46 | Interim results out next Thursday | johnv | |
31/8/2018 13:43 | I suspect it will get PTEC to sort itself out better and hence grow more quickly and hence funnel volumes through SCH Market seems to think otherwise though. Might be that they decide to bring SCH in house or sell of the remaining share... | trentendboy | |
31/8/2018 11:45 | Trent why do you see that as positive for here? The activist will likely push to make disposals - therefore the less companies playtech owns the less easy plug ins this one has?Or you think playtech will simply be better run and more volume will go through safecharge? | noujay | |
31/8/2018 08:39 | The activist investor action over at PTEC will have implicationsPositive | trentendboy | |
29/8/2018 22:01 | Certainly that's what Naked Trader thinks. I had hoped it'd happen by now though - could have had this in vrs, sos, opti, any number of things I also hold! | runthejoules | |
21/8/2018 21:50 | Yes, SCH is on the market I suspect. Would be a large premium imo | trentendboy | |
21/8/2018 15:10 | Agreed re margins on “interesting | vegpatch | |
21/8/2018 14:20 | Good post - thanks and yes, does link to reshaping the business. Still, margins to less salubrious business can still be very high and allow them to use the profits to make purchases elsewhere. Going totally white is good but profits are profits after all and is got them where they are today | trentendboy | |
21/8/2018 11:13 | I have met management a few times and they dont process Chinese business. They have been focusing on improving the quality of the revenues and ditching more dodgy revenue streams (specifically those markets where gaming is illegal and other "interesting" online payment businesses). Yes PTEC is a client but i dont think they process much for PTEC, its more an IT support role. Thats why there was a mini profit warning 18 months ago as management made the decision to forego higher margin (less salubrious) business and concentrate on regulated markets. see this presentation, pg14. Its decribed as "reshape of customer base" hxxp://investors.saf | vegpatch | |
08/8/2018 10:07 | There was a brief update as follows in this week's SCSW which read rather nicely: "As anticipated in my May update, the shares did break sharply higher supported by the strong trading momentum, which has continued into H1 driven by new customer wins. Meanwhile, Safecharge said it continues to invest in new sales people. Berenberg’s eps forecast for this year is 21.4 cents. Written about at 247.5p in April ‘15; keep holding." | rivaldo | |
19/7/2018 15:00 | True but ptec didn't mention it either and then warnedIt is more factual on whether SCH process the Chinese paymentsMight need to ask SCH themselves Should be public info or results should have a breakdown by territory | trentendboy | |
19/7/2018 12:37 | This is one of my core holdings. There is no mention of problematic Chinese exposure in the trading update of the 13th. In fact, no negativity at all. I expect this to rise further when the summer malaise is over. | starpukka | |
19/7/2018 11:29 | This is massive news not hit radarsGetting these top class clients gives SCH a large credibility boostStill cheap with big dividendsHmmmmPtec have their problems. Question is what is SCH exposure to China. Anyone know? | trentendboy | |
18/7/2018 14:49 | Great news today - PTC acquired Snaitech, and now.....

18/7/2018 10:21 | Excellent H1 trading update whilst I was on hols - and the "strong sales pipeline" and confidence for the full year suggests no issues deriving from PTC/China: "Trading in the first half of the year has been strong with good momentum in revenues and transaction processing volumes in H1, driven by new customer wins. The Group continues to invest in new sales people and additional marketing to bring in new customers and generate a greater awareness of SafeCharge's capabilities outside our traditional markets and verticals. With robust current trading and strong sales pipeline, the Board remains confident that the outcome for the year will be in line with market expectations. The Company expects to announce its interim results for the period ending 30 June 2018 on 13 September 2018." | rivaldo | |
16/7/2018 08:10 | Possible - if revenues decline in China all go through the SCH books Hard to pinpoint | trentendboy | |
16/7/2018 07:54 | Trent, I thought SCH would be impacted by the loss of business at PTEC. | nod | |
13/7/2018 20:35 | Hi Igoe I’m not sure your observations are consistent with the market as a whole. The median P/E for the FTSE 100 is 16.3 compared to a whopping 26.1 for the Aim 100 Likewise the P/E for the FTSE all share index is 15.2 vs 19.3 for the Aim All Share Index. If you look at the charts most of the major UK indicids are close to all time highs. However I don’t doubt there are will be some low P/E stocks that are falling and that some value based strategies are under-performing the market. Given the overall state of play I think I’ll leave the shutters where they are for now | quant_investor | |
13/7/2018 20:17 | If in-line it means divi is covered and is generous remember.Impressive yield on this share remember | trentendboy | |
13/7/2018 14:16 | Yep, sold at a nice premium. with the cash-pot divi out. | igoe104 | |
13/7/2018 12:47 | Igoe you mean sold rather than taken Private I presume? | runthejoules |
