The analysts wrote, “After being halted all day Friday following the $225 mln potential loss announcement, FXCM announced just on market close that Leucadia would provide a two-year, 10% term loan for $300 million that would enable FXCM to get back to normal operations. This is a good outcome, in our view, considering what might have happened had FXCM not executed this quickly. We lower our estimates to reflect our preliminary thoughts on earnings power with the new debt and potentially lower customer activity. We lower our 12-month PT to $4.50 from $10.”
