Morses Club PLC - Nottingham, England-based home collected credit provider and online lender - Delays release of results for financial year that ended on February 26 from May to ‘no later than 26 August 2022’. Morses Club says: ‘An update on the expected date of results will be provided in due course following the completion of the audit process.’ It adds that arrangements for its annual general meeting, which it says will be held virtually, will be announced separately.
Back in February, then-chief executive officer Paul Smith left immediately, after Morses Club said adjusted pretax profit for the year will be 20% to 30% below consensus analyst expectations of £7.5 million. Smith was replaced by Gary Marshall, who had been chief operating officer.
More positively, in March, Morses Club said the Digital lending division's total credit more than doubled to £41.2 million from £19.3 million, while the gross loan book grew by 98% to £23.9 million from £12.1 million. The Home Collected Credit division issued £108.0 million in credit, 9% above management's budgeted plan but down from £109.7 million the year before.
