    Management Commentary

    Jeff Howard, President and Chief Executive Officer at Atlanticus stated, "We are pleased to report continued expansion despite the ongoing inflationary pressures felt across our serviced customers and partners. Both of our operating segments experienced meaningful growth with managed receivables and revenue increasing approximately 32% and 41% respectively during the year despite tightening in underwriting that led to materially slower growth in the second half. Even as receivables performance is coming off of historic lows in delinquency in 2020 and 2021, we are proud to report net income of $111 million and earnings per share of $5.83 for the year.

    “Over our 25 plus year history, our actions have been guided by, in order of priority, asset level profitability, capital availability, then growth. As the consumers we serve experienced a rapid rise in the cost of living, we prudently revised our outlook for asset level profitability and rapidly deployed underwriting changes, portfolio management strategies, and customer service and collections programs to help everyday Americans adjust to increases in costs they care about the most – gas, food, and housing. Beginning in the third quarter of 2022, we have seen continued improvement in early asset performance metrics as a result of the actions mentioned, reductions in prices, particularly gas, and increases in wages experienced by the customer segment we serve.

    “We are also confident in our capital availability, as we have a strong cash position, attractive fixed rate financings, and no material financing need in 2023. As a result, as we observe improvements in the performance of the consumers we serve, we will look to increase our growth rate, albeit not likely to the rate we achieved in the first half of 2022.

    “Our ongoing investment in technology continues to bear fruit. Our bank, retail and healthcare partners benefit from our ease of integration. Our marginal cost to service accounts has declined by almost 50% over the previous 5 years allowing us to bring lower cost products to our partners’ customers. We see further opportunities to deploy technology, including artificial intelligence, to enhance the customer journey. Most importantly, the customers we service benefit from a unique customer experience through our ever-expanding Financial Empowerment Platform that offers curated features and functionality to help better manage their finances – to Empower Better Financial Outcomes.

    “Although we have prudently slowed our rate of growth in the near term, we believe we are well positioned for sustained long term growth. The addressable market for our general purpose, private label, and healthcare categories is estimated to exceed $1 trillion in annual purchase volume. 

    “Our decades of experience, unique combination of service offerings, and ample market size within each of our business lines creates substantial opportunity for long term value creation for our shareholders.”

    *nm = not meaningful 

    Managed Receivables

    Managed receivables increased 31.6% to $2.1 billion from December 31, 2021 largely driven by growth in the private label credit and general purpose credit card products offered by our bank partners. Total customers served increased 22.3% to 3.3 million. Recent recoveries in consumer spending behavior have helped increase the overall combined managed receivables levels and we currently expect this trend to continue into 2023, although we expect the pace of growth to slow when compared to earlier periods. 

    Total Operating Revenue

    Total operating revenue consists of: 1) interest income, finance charges and late fees on consumer loans, 2) other fees on credit products including annual and merchant fees and 3) ancillary, interchange and servicing income on loan portfolios. 

    During the quarter and full year ended December 31, 2022, total operating revenue increased 24.1% to $268.7 million and 40.6% to $1.05 billion, respectively. We have higher growth in our acquisitions of general purpose credit card receivables (which tend to have higher yields and corresponding charge-offs) than in our acquisitions of private label credit receivables. This relative mix of receivable acquisitions led to an increase in our corresponding revenue.

    We continue to experience period-over-period growth in all segments of our business including private label credit and general purpose credit card receivables and to a lesser extent in our CAR receivables. We expect net period-over-period growth in our total interest income and related fees for these operations for the majority of 2023. Future periods’ growth is also dependent on the addition of new retail partners and the expansion of existing relationships to expand the reach of private label credit operations and effective marketing for the general purpose credit card operations.

    Interest expense

    Interest expense was $24.0 million and $81.9 million for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2022, respectively, compared to $15.7 million and $54.1 million for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2021, respectively. The elevated expenses were primarily driven by the planned increases in outstanding debt related to the addition of multiple revolving credit facilities during 2021 and 2022.

    Outstanding notes payable, net of unamortized debt issuance costs and discounts, associated with our private label credit and general purpose credit card platform increased from $1,223.5 million as of December 31, 2021 to $1,586.0 million as of December 31, 2022. Recent increases in the federal funds rate have thus far had a modest impact on our interest expense as over 90% of interest rates on our outstanding debt are fixed.

    We anticipate additional debt financing over the next few quarters as we continue to grow coupled with increased effective interest rates resulting from recent and additional anticipated federal funds rate increases. As such, we expect our quarterly interest expense for these operations to increase compared to prior periods.

    Provision for losses on loans, interest and fees receivable recorded at net realizable value

    Provision for losses on loans, interest and fees receivable recorded at net realizable value decreased to $0.5 million and $1.3 million for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2022, respectively, compared to $12.0 million and $36.5 million for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2021, respectively. This reduction primarily reflects the effects of our adoption of the fair value option, which has resulted in a significant decline in the outstanding receivables subject to this provision.

    We expect that our provision for losses on loans will increase modestly in 2023 (when compared to comparable periods in 2022) in relation to growth in the underlying Auto Finance receivables and increases in delinquencies, reflective of delinquency levels returning to historically normalized levels (i.e., those periods prior to COVID-19 and the related government stimulus programs).

    Changes in fair value of loans, interest and fees receivable and notes payable associated with structured financings recorded at fair value

    Changes in fair value of loans, interest and fees receivable and notes payable associated with structured financings recorded at fair value increased to $162.2 million and $577.1 million for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2022, respectively, compared to $73.8 million and $218.7 million for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2021, respectively. This increase was largely driven by growth in underlying receivables coupled with increased fee billings on those receivables.

    Fee billings on our fair value receivables increased from $366.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2021 to $874.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2022. We include expected market degradation in our forecasts to reflect the possibility of delinquency rates increasing in the near term (and the corresponding increase in charge-offs and decrease in payments) above the level that historical and current trends would suggest. Offsetting this was a reduction in the discount rate applied to the net cash flows associated with these investments.

    We expect our change in fair value of credit card receivables recorded at fair value to increase throughout 2023 consistent with growth in these receivables.

    Total operating expense

    Total operating expense decreased 0.7% in the quarter but increased 25.2% for the full year when compared to the same periods in 2021.

    For the quarter, operating expenses decreased primarily driven by reductions in marketing, corresponding to strategic underwriting, tightening and selectively slowing our growth in receivables and new customers on behalf of our bank partners.

    On a full year basis, operating expenses increased for the following reasons: 1) increases in salaries and benefit costs related to both the growth in the number of employees and inflationary compensation pressure, 2) increases in card and loan servicing expenses and marketing and solicitation costs due to growth in receivables, and 3) other costs associated with occupancy or other third party expenses including legal and travel expenses.

    We expect some continued increase in portions of this cost for 2023 as we hire talent to meet our expected growing needs to manage increased levels of marketing, origination, and receivables.

    Net Income Attributable to Common Shareholders

    Net income attributable to common shareholders decreased 59.5% to $17.7 million, or $0.98 per diluted share, and 28.9% to $110.5 million, or $5.83 per diluted share, for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2022, respectively.

    Share Repurchases

    We repurchased and retired 1,674,161 shares of our common stock at an aggregate cost of $88.9 million, for the year ended December 31, 2022.

    We will continue to evaluate the best use of our capital to increase shareholder value over time.

    Additional Information

    Additional trends and data with respect to our private label credit and general purpose credit card receivables can be found in our latest 10-K filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission under Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

    Calculation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

    This press release presents information about managed receivables, which is a non-GAAP financial measure provided as a supplement to the results provided in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). In addition to financial measures presented in accordance with GAAP, we present managed receivables, total managed yield, combined principal net charge-offs, and fair value to face value ratio, all of which are non-GAAP financial measures. These non-GAAP financial measures aid in the evaluation of the performance of our credit portfolios, including our risk management, servicing and collection activities and our valuation of purchased receivables. The credit performance of our managed receivables provides information concerning the quality of loan originations and the related credit risks inherent with the portfolios. Management relies heavily upon financial data and results prepared on the “managed basis” in order to manage our business, make planning decisions, evaluate our performance and allocate resources.

    These non-GAAP financial measures are presented for supplemental informational purposes only. These non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, GAAP financial measures. These non-GAAP financial measures may differ from the non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. A reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures or the calculation of the non-GAAP financial measures are provided below for each of the fiscal periods indicated.

    These non-GAAP financial measures include only the performance of those receivables underlying consolidated subsidiaries (for receivables carried at amortized cost basis and fair value) and exclude the performance of receivables held by our former equity method investee. As the receivables underlying our former equity method investee reflect a small and diminishing portion of our overall receivables base, we do not believe their inclusion or exclusion in the overall results is material. Additionally, we calculate average managed receivables based on the quarter-end balances.

    The comparison of non-GAAP managed receivables to our GAAP financial statements requires an understanding that managed receivables reflect the face value of loans, interest and fees receivable without any consideration for potential loan losses or other adjustments to reflect fair value.

    A reconciliation of Loans, interest and fees receivable, at fair value to Loans, interest and fees receivable, at face value is as follows:

      At or for the Three Months Ended

    (1) On January 1, 2022, we elected the fair value option under ASU 2016-13 for those private label credit and general purpose credit card receivables that were previously accounted for under the amortized cost method.
    (2) The fair value mark against receivables reflects the difference between the face value of a receivable and the net present value of the expected cash flows associated with that receivable.
    (3) The Fair value to face value ratio is calculated using Loans, interest and fees receivable, at fair value as the numerator, and Loans, interest and fees receivable, at face value, as the denominator

    The calculation of managed receivables is as follows:
