“Prior to 4Q15 earnings and its FY16 guidance, we remain optimistic regarding CLGX’s growth and EBITDA trajectory despite anticipated mortgage volume headwinds. We wouldn’t preclude upside 4Q results and anticipate a healthy FY16/FY17 EBITDA ramp, reflecting announced acquisitions, organic growth, and cost saves. We estimate FY16 EBITDA of close to $490M, including the FNC acquisition (yet to close). Mortgage originations in 4Q15 from large issuers appear directionally in-line with MBA estimates, and we suspect small/mid-sized lenders continue to take share.”,” the firm’s analyst commented.
