On Jan. 8, Research Capital analyst Andre Greg McLeish reiterated a “Speculative Buy” rating on The Futr Corporation (The Futr Corporation Stock Quote, Chart, News, Analysts, Financials TSXV:FTRC) with a $3.00 target price, citing the company’s first institutional entry into the U.S. mortgage market as a key validation of its platform strategy.
McLeish said Futr’s newly announced enterprise agreement with Direct Wholesale Rates strengthens the core investment thesis by extending its AI-driven Payments 2.0 and data infrastructure beyond auto loans and into U.S. mortgages, a larger, longer-duration credit vertical with more attractive unit economics and customer lifetime value. The partnership represents Futr’s first institutional mortgage deployment in the U.S., providing an enterprise distribution channel, deeper consumer data integration and a pathway toward regulated mortgage economics through a potential RESPA-compliant affiliate structure.
He described the deal as an important proof point that Futr’s payments and data architecture is scalable across complex, highly regulated financial verticals. The pilot will see Futr deploy its payments platform and AI agent across DWR’s mortgage ecosystem, enabling optimized payment scheduling, AI-driven borrower interaction and structured, data-driven mortgage application packages intended to improve engagement and conversion.
McLeish maintained his $3.00 target based on a sum-of-the-parts valuation, assigning $1.81 per share to Futr’s core platform and $1.08 per share to the discounted value of its token reserve. He said the development supports a longer-term outlook centred on scalable, privacy-first, consumer-rewarded data infrastructure.
Financially, McLeish expects Futr to generate negative $4.9-million in Adjusted EBITDA on $13.4-million in revenue in fiscal 2026, improving to negative $0.1-million in Adjusted EBITDA on $33.4-million in revenue in fiscal 2027.
