PROG Holdings, Inc. - $PRG

PROG Holdings, Inc., a financial technology holding company, provides payment options to consumers in the United States.

Ticker: PRG | Price: $28.61 | Price Target: $44.53 (+56%)
Market Cap: 2-3 years | Timeframe: $1.15B

💳 Lease-to-own | 💰 1% Dividend | 📈 Bullish Idea

PROG Holdings, a quality lease-to-own provider, is trading at $25.89, down nearly 50% from its high of over $50 due to the Big Lots bankruptcy (representing a $25mm+ EBITDA hit) and economic uncertainty. Despite this setback, PRG still generates $160-165mm in free cash flow (16-17% yield) on $250mm of trough EBITDA and trades at an attractive 5.6x EV/EBITDA with $387mm in net debt. The company has aggressively retired shares (30% since Q4'21) and typically repurchases $130-150mm of stock annually. Management expects write-offs to increase slightly to around 8% in Q2 before improving in the second half of the year. With continued share repurchases and a potential rebound from current profitability levels, PRG offers a 20%+ IRR potential over 2-3 years. Key risks include recession impacts causing weaker GMV and higher delinquencies, customer concentration issues, regulatory concerns, and potential tariff impacts, though LTO usually performs relatively well during economic downturns.

SS&C Technologies Holdings, Inc. - $SSNC

SS&C Technologies Holdings, Inc., together with its subsidiaries, provides software products and software-enabled services to financial services and healthcare industries.

Ticker: SSNC | Price: $79.16 | Price Target: N/A
Market Cap: $19.53B | Timeframe: N/A

💸 Financial Services Tech | 💰 1.26% Dividend | 📈 Bullish Idea

SS&C Technologies (SSNC), a highly resilient financial services tech firm and the world's largest hedge fund and private equity administrator, is trading at just 12x 2025E EPS/10x EBITDA following a recent 20% decline despite demonstrating 6.1% organic growth (7.2% in core financial services). The company recently reduced its 2025 organic growth guidance conservatively to 4.4% due to macro volatility, yet maintains exceptional customer retention rates of 96.5-97.1% and has grown alternative assets under administration from $2.2 trillion in 2022 to over $2.5 trillion in Q1. SSNC has a clean balance sheet (2.7x leverage) positioning it well for M&A opportunities, having successfully integrated 65 companies since 1995. The company benefits from minimal tariff exposure and a weaker USD for its 30% international business, while its healthcare segment presents turnaround potential. CEO Bill Stone owns approximately 13% of shares ($2bn worth), creating strong management alignment with shareholders, and the company has been actively repurchasing shares to address its market discount.

Deep Discount, Aligned Incentives, and a Ripple Catalyst: The Case for Tetragon Financial

Tetragon Financial Group Limited is a close ended feeder fund launched and managed by Tetragon Financial Management LP.

Ticker: TFG.AS | Price: $14.95 | Price Target: $41 (+174%)
Market Cap: $1.3B | Timeframe: N/A

💸 Investment Fund | 💰 3% Dividend | 📈 Bullish Idea

Tetragon Financial Group (TFG.AS) currently trades at $14 per share, representing a 60% discount to its reported $35 NAV. The company owns approximately 4.5 million Ripple shares, which it conservatively marks at $53/share despite recent tender offers at $175/share. This creates $438 million in excess value ($5.4/share) not reflected in the current NAV, bringing the true NAV to approximately $40-41. The potential upside grows substantially with a possible Ripple IPO in the next 12-18 months; at a projected IPO price of $380/share (based on a 50% discount to XRP value plus cash and business value), TFG would gain an additional $15/share in value. While management is described as 'sketchy,' they own 40% of TFG equity (up from 12% a decade ago) and stand to benefit from a $1.2 billion windfall, aligning their interests with minority shareholders. This creates a compelling investment opportunity where investors gain significant upside optionality at a deep discount.
