Regional Management Corp. Announces Third Quarter 2024 Results

- Net income of $7.7 million and diluted earnings per share of $0.76, inclusive of a $4.3 million, or $0.42 per share, impact due to hurricane events occurring in the third quarter of 2024 -

- Record revenue and ending net receivables driven by $46 million of sequential portfolio growth, an annualized growth rate of 10% -

- Net credit loss rate of 10.6% and 30+ day contractual delinquency rate of 6.9% as of September 30, 2024, both 40 basis points better than the prior-year period -

- Continued expense discipline with operating expense increasing only 0.6% from the prior-year period and an operating expense ratio of 13.9%, a 50 basis point improvement year-over-year -

Greenville, South Carolina – November 6, 2024 – Regional Management Corp. (NYSE: RM), a diversified consumer finance company, today announced results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2024.

 

“Our team once again delivered strong results in the third quarter, and our credit performance continues to improve,” said Robert W. Beck, President and Chief Executive Officer of Regional Management Corp. “We generated net income of $7.7 million and diluted EPS of $0.76, inclusive of a $4.3 million impact to net income from third quarter hurricane activity. On a pre-tax basis, we reserved $2.1 million for incremental net credit losses and $3.5 million for estimated personal property insurance claims caused by the hurricanes. While these charges created a drag on our third quarter results, we are pleased to be able to provide our customers with special borrower assistance programs and valuable personal property insurance benefits that will help them rebuild their lives.”

 

“Despite the hurricane challenges, we grew our portfolio by $46 million sequentially, or 2.6%, to $1.82 billion in the quarter, an annualized growth rate of just above 10%,” added Mr. Beck. “Quality portfolio growth drove our quarterly revenue to a record high of $146 million, and we improved our interest and fee yield by 90 basis points year-over-year to 29.9%—the highest it has been in over two years—from a combination of increased pricing, growth of our higher-margin small loan portfolio, and improved credit performance. Meanwhile, we kept a tight grip on G&A expense while still investing in our growth and strategic initiatives. We improved our operating expense ratio by 50 basis points from the prior-year period to 13.9%, and year-over-year revenue growth outpaced expense growth by 15 times.”

“Overall, our credit quality has improved and we have observed positive trends in our credit metrics in recent quarters, as we have maintained a tight credit box while also increasing the growth of our higher-margin small loan portfolio,” continued Mr. Beck. “Higher-quality originations in our front book continue to perform in line with our expectations, make up a larger portion of our portfolio, and are delivering at lower loss levels than our stressed back book vintages. Looking ahead, we will continue to monitor the economic environment, competitive dynamics, consumer health, and other factors as we allocate capital to grow the different pieces of our portfolio. Ultimately, we will build our portfolio in a way that will generate strong margins that meet our return hurdles and optimize short- and long-term results, while also appropriately balancing credit outcomes and customer needs.”

 

Third Quarter 2024 Highlights

 

Net income for the third quarter of 2024 was $7.7 million and diluted earnings per share was $0.76, inclusive of a $4.3 million, or $0.42 per share, impact due to hurricanes occurring in the third quarter of 2024.

 

- Net income also reflects the impact of $46.0 million of sequential portfolio growth in the third quarter, which required a $4.6 million provision for credit losses, or $3.5 million after tax. The company is required to reserve for expected lifetime credit losses at origination of each loan, while the revenue benefits are recognized over the life of the loan, highlighting the impact of portfolio growth on our income statement.

 

Record net finance receivables as of September 30, 2024 of $1.8 billion, an increase of $68.7 million, or 3.9%, from the prior-year period.

- Small loan net finance receivables of $524.8 million increased $50.6 million, or 10.7%, from the prior-year period and represented 28.8% of the total loan portfolio, compared to 27.1% in the prior-year period.

 

- Net finance receivables with annual percentage rates (APRs) above 36% increased to 17.8% of the portfolio from 14.9% in the prior-year period, driven by the increase in the higher-margin small loan portfolio.

- Large loan interest and fee yield increased by 40 basis points, while the interest and fee yield of the higher-margin small loan portfolio increased by 120 basis points.

 

- Total revenue yield decreased 10 basis points year-over-year primarily due to $3.5 million, or 80 basis points, in increased property insurance claims and reserves related to hurricanes occurring during the third quarter of 2024.

- The provision for credit losses for the third quarter of 2024 included a reserve increase of $6.7 million, or $5.1 million after tax, primarily related to portfolio growth ($4.6 million of provision) and hurricanes ($2.1 million of provision) occurring during the third quarter of 2024.

 

- Allowance for credit losses was $192.1 million as of September 30, 2024, or 10.6% of net finance receivables, a 10 basis point increase sequentially from 10.5% due to 20 basis points of impact for estimated credit losses related to hurricanes occurring during the third quarter of 2024.

 

As of September 30, 2024, 30+ day contractual delinquencies totaled $126.0 million, or 6.9% of net finance receivables, comparable sequentially and a 40 basis point improvement from September 30, 2023.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to financial measures presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), this press release contains certain non-GAAP financial measures. The company’s management utilizes non-GAAP measures as additional metrics to aid in, and enhance, its understanding of the company’s financial results. Tangible equity and the funded debt-to-tangible equity ratio are non-GAAP measures that adjust GAAP measures to exclude intangible assets. Management uses these equity measures to evaluate and manage the company’s capital and leverage position. The company also believes that these equity measures are commonly used in the financial services industry and provide useful information to users of the company’s financial statements in the evaluation of its capital and leverage position.

This non-GAAP financial information should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. In addition, the company’s non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to similarly titled non-GAAP measures of other companies. The following tables provide a reconciliation of GAAP measures to non-GAAP measures.

The Company’s management utilizes non-GAAP measures as additional metrics to aid in, and enhance, its understanding of the Company’s financial results. The Company believes that these non-GAAP measures provide useful information by excluding certain material items that may not be indicative of our operating results. As a result, the Company believes that the non-GAAP measures that it has presented will aid in the evaluation of the operating performance of the business. Tangible equity and the funded debt-to-tangible equity ratio are non-GAAP measures that adjust GAAP measures to exclude intangible assets. Management uses these equity measures to evaluate and manage the company’s capital and leverage position. The Company also believes that these equity measures are commonly used in the financial services industry and provide useful information to users of the Company’s financial statements in the evaluation of its capital and leverage position.  As a result, the Company also believes that these adjusted measures will aid users of its financial statements in the evaluation of its operating performance. This non-GAAP financial information should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. In addition, the Company’s non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to similarly titled non-GAAP measures of other companies. The following tables provide reconciliations of GAAP measures to non-GAAP measures. 21
