QUARTERLY ANALYSIS
Regarding quarterly performance IPOdesktop notes that:
- Net income for the September & December 2011 quarters is down for both quarters, compared to year earlier results.
- Even though EVER was profitable in the June, September and December quarters, stockholders equity declined.
- EVER is running a major loss in the 'non-interest' sector.
ANALYSIS
Comparing unadjusted earnings for calendar 2011 between EVER and BankUnited (BKU) EVER looks like a discount. Comparing the adjusted earnings for EVER and with Bank of Internet's (BOFI) earnings we find the P/E multiples are the same, 13.

IPOdesktop does not see a demonstrated growth pattern in the last six quarters for EVER. Considering the three bullet points above, IPOdesktop would avoid EVER on the IPO because there's just too much hair on the beast.
On the other hand, if investors buy the EVER & BKU comparison the stock will go up on the IPO.
BUSINESS
EVER is a diversified financial services company that says it provides innovative banking, lending and investing products and services to 575,000 customers nationwide through, according to EVER, scalable, low-cost distribution channels.

EVER's services are primarily offered over the Internet. While providing many competitive advantages, some customers may prefer a more traditional branch footprint.
Additionally, because EVER offers its services primarily over the Internet, it competes for customers nationally. As a result, competitors range from small community banks to the largest international financial institutions.
EVER faces substantial competition in all areas of operations from various competitors including Internet banks and national, regional and community banks within the markets in which we serve. EVER also competes with many other types of financial institutions, such as savings and loan institutions, credit unions, mortgage companies, other finance companies, brokerage firms, insurance companies, factoring companies and other financial intermediaries.
USE OF PROCEEDS
EVER expects to net $225 million from the sale of 19.2 shares. Shareholders expect to sell six million shares.
