Fair Isaac Corporation (FICO) has experienced a significant shift in its positioning, due to the introduction of a
Direct Licensing Program. This strategic move directly targets Credit Bureaus, causing stock volatility within the sector. Several analysts have initiated or reiterated a
Buy rating, such as BMO Capital and Seaport Research. Despite facing some new competition in Mortgage Credit Scoring, FICO remains dominant. Moreover, the introduction of
FICO Score 10 T significantly outshines VantageScore 4.0. FICO has also partnered with Chelsea Football Club on a
multi-year collaboration. There have been concerns expressed by some investors over high valuations and the rise of new challengers. However, many believe that FICO has a
strong moat and considerable momentum despite the negative news. FICO is prepared to face any upcoming regulatory onslaught, as they have defended their position, citing the effectiveness of their scoring systems. In addition, FICO CEO Lansing has reportedly sold $9.2m in stock.
The White House announcement seems to have shaken up investor sentiment, leading to a plunge in FICO's stock. FICO has proven its mettle by delivering high-margin FICO Scores; however, it is facing criticism and suspicion.
