Investment Highlights
Why It Matters
Which of these 2 stories sounds closer for this stock?
1. Generates cash flow
The stock generated 4% or more of the share price (called cash flow yield), and shows moderate 10-15% or more growth.
2. Riding a trend
Think Tesla during the pandemic of 2020 when EVs were riding a cultural high, or Nvidia in the current AI boom, or even Figma. These companies don’t have enough yield, or, enough growth, or both - however - they are riding a trend. They have momentum. These can be more volatile - they don’t have the floor of strong cash flow

Qualitative Assessment
AI Generated Analysis | Feedback
Here are the key points explaining the significant movement of FlexShopper (FPAY) stock by -99.3% in the approximate time period from August 31, 2025, to December 4, 2025:
1. Nasdaq Delisting Due to Failure to File Reports.
FlexShopper received a delisting notice from Nasdaq on October 14, 2025, and subsequently announced on October 17, 2025, that Nasdaq initiated delisting procedures. This action was a direct consequence of the company's failure to file its Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, and its Form 10-Qs for March 31, 2025, and June 30, 2025, by the final deadline of October 13, 2025. The company explicitly stated it did not intend to request a hearing, leading to trading suspension on October 23, 2025, and subsequent removal.
2. Acceleration of Debt and Severe Financial Distress.
On September 25, 2025, FlexShopper's subsidiary, FlexShopper 2, LLC, received an Acceleration Notice for its primary credit facility, demanding immediate payment of over $168 million in loans and obligations. This critical event stemmed from "continuing Events of Default" under the Waterfall Credit Agreement, which were initially asserted on August 12, 2025, citing misrepresentations in financial statements and false information provided to lenders.
