Fair Isaac Corporation (FICO) has experienced heightened interest, analyzing upswings as well as declines in its stock price. The company's strategic decisions, such as the launch of a
direct licensing program allowing lenders to bypass traditional credit bureaus when accessing FICO scores, were met with huge market responses, reflected by the 24% rise in its stock price. However, the various regulatory pressures witnessed through Q2, have had a negative impact on its shares. Despite some fluctuation, multiple institutions including Barclays, BMO Capital and Seaport Global, have expressed a positive outlook for the corporation, initiating buy ratings, and raising price targets. Bull case theories around the corporation were put forth. The move to allow direct lender access triggered speculation about the competitive landscape in credit reporting, potentially putting pressure on incumbents like
Equifax. The company plans to report Q3 earnings soon and reports suggest it has had a strong performance in the 'Scores Segment' growth. However, potential regulatory actions and the rummaging of the CEO's stocks have caused some concern.
