Goldman Sachs’ Heath P. Terry maintained a Neutral rating on the company, while lowering the price target from $7.00 to $4.40, “to reflect the slower growth trajectory relative to the comp group and increased uncertainty on investor demand.”
Although Terry expects loan demand to recover over time, investors are likely to require proof of such recovery before the stock multiple reflects it.
According to the 10-Q filing, since the announcement of the resignation of the CEO and internal review on May 9, the company has experienced “a slowdown in a significant amount of investment capital.”

The 2016-2018 revenue and EBITDA estimates have been lowered by 8 percent and 34 percent, respectively, on an average, to reflect the slower loan growth during 2016 and the subsequent decline in profitability.
