Hard to see how earnings do not increase. Perhaps a short term impact from rising wages and a drop in FUM, but the overwhelming demand for fin advice is not stopping. Prices must increase (and perhaps the advice arm will actually make more money)
When the company has ~$17m in net cash ($14.5m from Q1FY23, plus Q2), you're looking at ~$19m0 for a UNPATA figure of $15.7m (~12.3x EV/FCF) Not cheap for most, but FID has managed mid teens EPS increases for a long time. Buying at an 8% FCF yield on a stream growing at ~14% p.a. is a bargain. Even if growth slows (unlikely as op leverage kicking in) it's cheap.
