Upstart Holdings
Ein Gapclose wäre unschön und nicht bullisch zu werten, ist aber nun mal in der aktuellen Marktphase nicht auszuschließen
Es wird sehr interessant welche Wachstumsbereiche untermauert werden oder übertroffen werden.
Ist natürlich der gefestigtere der beiden mit weniger Schulden, allerdings auch viel höher bewertet
In meinen Augen hat Upstart die deutlich bessere KI und wächst dynamischer, zudem ist das Management wirklich klasse und hat ein starken Track Record.
Upstart Holdings startet digitale Plattform für den Kfz-Handel

(MT Newswires) -- Upstart Holdings (UPST) sagte am Mittwoch, dass seine digitale Autohandelsplattform jetzt auf mobilen Geräten, Tablet und Desktop verfügbar ist.
Die Upstart Auto Retail Plattform bietet Finanzierungs- und Manager-Tools, die es den Kunden ermöglichen, Fahrzeuge zu durchsuchen und zu vergleichen und den gesamten Vorgang online abzuschließen, so das Unternehmen.
Eine Version für den stationären Handel wird später in diesem Jahr ebenfalls verfügbar sein.

They did not say the autorefi loan number for Q4 on the conference call, unlike in Q3 and Q2.
This is because the autorefi loan count decreased from Q3 to Q4.
Not good news they wanted to share on a call, so it was not mentioned.
If you read the 10K filing, it is shown that they transacted 5800 auto loans in 2021. We assume this number is comprised only of autorefi and no autoretail loans.
In past calls, they said they did 2000 auto loans in first half of 2021.
Then they did 2000 auto loans in Q3 2021.
This means they did only 1800 loans in Q4 2021.
In the Q4 call they said "our auto refi funnel performance is now comparable to where our personal loan funnel was in 2019 on a channel-adjusted basis. Based on this progress, we now expect $1.5 billion in auto loan transactions on our platform in 2022."
So does this mean for 2022, we expect similar personal loan QoQ growth in 2019 for auto refi?
If it is identical, just for fun calculation purposes, let’s expect -6% QoQ in Q1, +33% in Q2, +56% in Q3, +22% in Q4.
This means there could be auto refi loans of 1692 in Q1, 2250 in Q2, 3151 in Q3, 4283 in Q4 in 2022.
That's a projected total of 11735 autorefi loans in 2022. That would be a 102% increase YoY for autorefi by Dec 2022 off a tiny base, which is way too slow growth for my liking.
Per the 10K, they were carrying $50.1 million auto loans in Q4 (as far as we can tell, they imply no auto loans have been securitized or sold off to investors).
Divide that by 5800 loans (assume none are auto-retail, none were pre-paid off and none were charged off/defaulted), this is average autorefi loan balance of $8637.
I'm rather disappointed by that loan size - recall from prior conference calls/presentations that UPST management indicated autorefi should have higher revenue but very similar 'dollar contribution profit' per auto-refi loan, as compared to personal loans.
Again, they have stated before:
"I think our expectation remains that -- the loans are clearly bigger and so there will be a higher dollar revenue per loan. And we're expecting probably a similar dollar sort of contribution profit per loan as we see in personal loans. So the percentages will be a little bit different because the loan size is bigger, but that's our current going assumption."
But from the number crunching, it doesn't appear their current auto refi loans sizes are much bigger than personal loans?
Either way, from what is known so far, we can't expect auto-refi to contribute much in 2022 unless its QoQ growth rates astronomically skyrocket suddenly.
I think the lack of an effective autorefi loan aggregator is hampering their borrower acquisition/marketing efforts.
There is no “Credit Karma equivalent” for them in auto.
I have to think they are banking on auto-retail (prodigy) to power much of their auto growth in 2022 at this point, but we don't have any visibility on this. We don't know what percent of cars sold on the Prodigy platform will be powered by UPST bank partners. If it's 100%, then that would be awesome but obviously not realistic. If it's 20% of them, then I think the numbers might make sense for what they guided for auto so far.

Glaube kaum dass sie 90$ die nächsten wochen halten werden.
Läuft wohl auf neue Jahrestiefs heraus,
bei der Gemengenlage zur Zeit
gibts wohl nochmal Kaufmöglichkeiten Richtung 50-60$
Wenn die Zahlen im Monat 5 inkl der Zukunftsaussichten wie zu erwarten top sind, werden wir auch andere Kurse sehen. Bis dahin abwarten und ggf günstig nachkaufen.
Gibt es eine nachvollziehbare Erklärung?
