Loyalty Industry

[BayWall]

A glance of what other loyalty company stocks are doing.

 

AIM (Aeroplan) reached a new 6 month high $13 and is close to its 52 week high of $13.80. Good strong move now on for the past 6 months..

 

PTS (Points International) Good performer to $9. It's 52 high is $10.40.

 

ADS (Alliance Data Systems-NYSE) Owns Canadian company--- Loyalty One (Airmiles). Super stock. The chart says it all at $120/share.

 

The 3 top loyalty programs are clearly on their way up. The industry is emerging as a winner for 2012. Futura is in that industry. The momentum is there to help the stock, but now requires good news.

Interesting buy at the end of the day on friday, raise the stock price to 2.5 was not a mercy buy of 1,000 but a 20,000 buy! Makes me wonder if someone knows something! As far as I am concerned this has been a long wait for a stock price to move. I keep telling myself this thing has to much going for it positively to get out! I am guessing that management has not seen the stock price move on news

This isn't actually an apples to apples comparison. Aeroplan and Loyalty One (Air Miles) are primary loyalty programs, from my perspective, with Air Canada being the primary partner for Aeroplan and Air Miles being a stand alone rewards program. Points International is a secondary program, allowing people to amalgamate their points from various loyalty programs. Futura is a secondary loyalty

Latest 6 month EBITDA was nearly $2 million and a net profit of 508,000. They also have 1,050 participating merchants, up from the approx. 750 they had in 2010.   Both Advantex and
