- Friday, April 26, 4:01 PM Gain Capital Holdings (GCAP -6.6%) falls after FXCM withdraws its acquisition proposal. GCAP's acquisition of Global Futures and Forex consumed enough cash to "fundamentally impact the balance sheet and capital synergies that were an important driver of our proposal," says FXCM CEO Drew Niv. The merger would have combined two of the largest U.S.-based players in online currency trading. Comment! [M&A, On the Move]
- Tuesday, April 9, 12:40 PM FXCM's (FXCM +2.3%) bid for Gain Capital (GCAP +26%) would merge two of largest U.S.-based players in online FX trading, as FXCM pushes for organic growth in an industry that has grown rapidly over the past decade but is now challenged by tighter regulation and waning profits. Retail trading currently accounts for about 6% of the $4T per day currency market, and FXCM reported earlier today that its retail and institutional volumes fell in March on both a Y/Y and M/M comparisons. Comment! [Financials, M&A, On the Move]
- Thursday, March 15, 2012, 10:01 AM FXCM (FXCM +2.9%) catches a bid after being upgraded to Buy at Citigroup, citing a boost in institutional trading and increasing deal probability amid industry consolidation. The firm also raises its price target to $15 from $10. Comment! [Financials, On the Move]
- Wednesday, February 29, 2012, 5:34 PM FXCM +5.7% AH after preannouncing Q4 revenue of $105.2M, above a $101.5M consensus. The forex broker, which will deliver its Q4 report on March 14, also says its institutional customer trading volume rose 125% Y/Y to $429B, while its retail trading volume rose 16% to $972B.

[Financials, Earnings, On the Move]
- Monday, October 17, 2011, 1:03 PM Despite an earlier announcement that it would be boosting its buyback program, shares of FXCM continue their descent. The stock has given back another 3.3% today, on top of a 12% hit on Friday after the company reported disappointing monthly metrics. Comment! [Financials, On the Move]
- Monday, October 17, 2011, 11:31 AM Forex broker FXCM is increasing the size of its stock repurchase program to $50M, from a prior $30M. Nonetheless, shares are still down 4.8%, adding to the losses incurred on Friday following a weak monthly metrics report. Comment! [Financials, On the Move]
- Friday, October 14, 2011, 1:35 PM Forex trading firm FXCM takes a -12.6% hit after reporting disappointing monthly metrics late yesterday. In its report, the company notes that "revenue per million continues to be constrained by low interest rates and increased trading from high volume, lower margin clients." Citigroup cut the shares to sell on the news, saying 2012-2013 consensus estimates for the company are too high. Comment! [Financials, On the Move]
- Friday, August 12, 2011, 12:24 PM FXCM +17% after reporting a Q2 profit of $0.21/share, beating expectations by a penny. CEO Drew Niv says the company has and will continue to benefit from heightened volatility in currency markets. (PR) Comment! [Tech, On the Move]
- Tuesday, May 17, 2011, 3:09 PM Its stock falling 30% in less than 2 sessions following an earnings miss, the board of online foreign exchange provider FXCM authorizes a $30M share buyback.

- Monday, May 16, 2011, 10:47 AM FXCM: Q1 EPS of $0.18 misses by $0.02. Revenue of $94M (+23% Y/Y) beats by $20M. Shares -9.8%. (PR). Comment! [Earnings, On the Move]

Intangible Valuation
$FXCM's bid for $GCAP is possibly too small it seems. For each $1 of equity value GCAP would get, it would give up $2.23. Wheres the value? - View all 0 replies
