Directa Plus pursues shareholder loan, cost cuts and CFO transition

The latest announcement is out from Directa Plus ( (GB:DCTA) ).

Directa Plus is in advanced talks with major shareholder Nant Capital over a proposed non-dilutive €4 million loan to fund its growth plans, while also moving to sell at least €0.5 million of non-strategic land at its Setcar unit and pressing ahead with cost-cutting. Setcar’s workforce reduction and other efficiency measures are expected to deliver about €0.5 million in savings in 2026, and the Italian business has approved further recurring cost cuts of roughly €0.15 million from April 2026.

The company also announced that Chief Financial Officer Giorgio Bonfanti will step down at the end of March to pursue a new opportunity, with an interim UK-based AIM-experienced finance professional to bridge the role as a search for a permanent successor begins. The funding initiatives and restructuring efforts underscore management’s focus on strengthening the balance sheet, sharpening capital allocation and maximising shareholder value during the next phase of growth.

The most recent analyst rating on (GB:DCTA) stock is a Hold with a £15.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Directa Plus stock, see the GB:DCTA Stock Forecast page.

Spark’s Take on GB:DCTA Stock

According to Spark, TipRanks’ AI Analyst, GB:DCTA is a Neutral.

The score is held back primarily by weak financial performance (declining revenues, continued losses, and negative free cash flow). Technicals are supportive with strong trend signals but tempered by an overbought RSI. The latest earnings call was constructive (revenue growth, cost reduction, automation and partnerships), while valuation remains challenged due to ongoing losses and no dividend support.
