BFH offers tech based lending, payment, and credit card financial services.  It trades at 3x earnings, under book value and supports a ROE of 21%.  Quarterly cash reserves are growing, while debit is retired.  It pays a decent dividend, backed by a payout ratio under 10% of cash flow.  We recommend a stop-loss at $21, looking to achieve $34 -- upside potential of 21%.  Yield 3.0%
