Jarvis Securities (LON:JIM)

  • I have quite a large position here precisely because I think the interest income is being overlooked.

  • x-o state this in their T&Cs:

"Interest accrued on sterling Account Money not immediately committed for investment shall be calculated monthly at 1% below the published HSBC standard current account rate"


  • I found zero interest being paid on the HSBC standard accounts, which looked odd.
    So I messaged HSBC and they confirmed this was correct.

  • In theory therefore, no interest should be being paid to customers right now.
    Even if HSBC increased their standard account interest rate to 1%, Jarvis would still pay zero out to customers.

  • I would hope that Jarvis Securities (LON:JIM) are therefore receiving net interest somewhere between 3.0% and 4.0%.

  • The cash balance at the end of H1 2022 should have been £330m (calculated forward from the 2013 interim report - thank you again to the person who posted that!)

  • I am prudently assuming that this dropped to £300m at 2022 Year End with a rise to £320m by the end of this year i.e average FY23 balance = £310m

  • £310m * 4% = £12.4m interest income in FY23.

  • For context the interest income in FY21 was £4.5m.

  • The current Market Cap = c£70m, so I think that the interest income alone justifies a much higher re-rating...assuming the FCA find nothing from the audit currently taking place. Nothing yet.

Thanks for the reply.  FWIW, I've opened a small position in Jarvis Securities (LON:JIM) based on the thesis that current earnings estimates do not fully reflect the expected interest earnings on client deposits.
