Nicholas Financial Reports Earnings

Nicholas Financial (NICK) reported earnings today. For the December quarter, the company’s third, NICK earned 22 cents a share which is a big drop from the 27 cents a share it made in last year’s third quarter. The big difference was the 106% rise in “provision for credit losses.” That’s about an increase of 12 cents a share.
If these results are as bad as it gets for NICK, consider that the stock is going for 32 times this past quarter’s earnings.
