Propel Holdings (PRL.TO)

Excellent business within alternative lending space. Online business very strong. Trading at low multiple - good entry place for investors. Expecting loan book to expand. Good name at reasonable valuation. 

He likes and knows it really well. Management is doing an excellent job. It has doubled its profits every year for the last 3 years. It is hard to keep up this pace but it should be able to continue to have healthy growth and profits. Has a high ROC, good dividend, single digit multiples. Management and insiders own lots.

Done well and will continue to. Strong management, but he doesn't invest in small companies. A great company from a speculative standpoint.

He owns 3-4 fintechs like this. PRL does consumer loans, providing for American credit loans. Great track record. Are growing rapidly and pay a nice dividend now. Shares have rebounded well since last fall. Trades at 8zx cash earnings. Growing this year probably 30%.

We can't personalize answers, but the stock has solid momentum and remains reasonably valued. Year over year growth looks good and the last quarter was VERY strong. The dividend was raised in November. We would be comfortable continuing to hold.

It is an online lender that gives fast access to LOC's and loans mostly to customers in the U.S. Its forecast is for 3X higher revenue and 5X higher profits than its IPO two years ago but the stock is up only 30% since then. It has everything: high growth rate, single digit P/E, 3 1/2% yield. Its technology is incredible. It can look at 1000 variables on a borrower in under 10 seconds.     Buy 5  Hold 0  Sell 0

PRL operates as a consumer lending platform and is now trading at 5.9x times' Forward P/E. In the last few years, revenue growth has been solid. The balance sheet is quite leveraged with long-term debt of $172M, and long-term debt/equity is around 1.82x. PRL’s business model involves borrowing long-term debt and lending it within a short period of time to consumers. Shares are up 48% YTD yet PRL is trading quite cheaply given its growth prospects. Business may improve as well with lower rates. Insiders are committed with 24% ownership and the last quarter was nicely ahead of estimates. It went public in 2021 and only received went over its IPO price. But it is starting to put things together and we consider it interesting. We still prefer much larger peer GSY overall.

PRL offers credit products and services to the underserved population and its products include: moneykey (loans and lines of credit for US customers), creditfresh (open-ended lines of credit for US customers), fora (lines of credit for Canadian customers), and pathward (lending as a service partner for the US). It has shown high growth rates over the past several years (58% and 75% most recently) and with a small revenue base of $242M it can see good growth into the future. Analyst estimates call for 33% and 36% growth over the next tow years. It's profitable and trades at a cheap valuation of 5.5X forward P/E, and has a growing balance sheet. We think it looks decent here, although it does have small-cap size risks. It does not yet generate positive free cash flow, and it is mostly funded through debt, but it is moving in the right direction. We would consider it buyable today, while being mindful of position sizing and the company's risks.
