theflyonthewall.com: Portfolio Recovery's tax issues has ramifications for the group, Barron's says
Portfolio Recovery Associates’ (PRAA) is battling the Internal Revenue Service in U.S. Tax Court over IRS notices of deficiencies for years 2005-2009. An IRS victory means Portfolio Recovery has overstated its earnings in those years and will potentially be on the hook to Uncle Sam for a good chunk of the $192M net deferred tax liability on its balance sheet. Barron's contends that an IRS win could slam the stock 10%-30%, and future profit growth could lose the earnings boost from deferred taxes. Rival Encore Capital Group (ECPG) doesn't use cost recovery for taxes; Asta Funding (ASTI) has done it to a lesser extent. http://online.barrons.com/article/SB50001424052748704444604577207142753609600.html?mod=BOL_twm_mw :theflyonthewall.com
