GREENVILLE, S.C.--()--Regional Management Corp. (NYSE: RM), a diversified consumer finance company, today announced results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2024.

“We are very pleased with our quarterly and year-to-date results,” said Robert W. Beck, President and Chief Executive Officer of Regional Management Corp. “We delivered $8.4 million of net income in the second quarter, or $0.86 of diluted EPS. We grew our portfolio by $29 million sequentially to $1.8 billion in the quarter, up 5.0% from the prior year. Our interest and fee yield increased 110 basis points year-over-year from a combination of increased pricing, growth of our higher-margin small loan portfolio, and improved credit performance. Our larger portfolio and stronger yield combined to drive total revenue to $143 million in the second quarter, up 7% from last year. At the same time, we have maintained a tight grip on G&A expense while still investing in our growth and strategic initiatives. Together, these strong line item outcomes drove net income up 40% compared to the second quarter of last year.”

“Along with our strong first half results, we continue to carefully manage our portfolio’s credit quality and performance,” added Mr. Beck. “Our 30+ day delinquency rate remained stable at 6.9% at the end of the quarter, 20 basis points better sequentially. Our net credit loss rate improved 40 basis points from the prior year, as the front book continues to perform in line with our expectations and makes up a larger portion of our total portfolio. We grew our small loan portfolio by $61 million, or 14%, year-over-year, representing more than 70% of our total portfolio growth over the past year. Our portfolio of loans with greater than 36% APR grew from 14% to 17% of the total portfolio over that same time period. While these portfolios naturally come with higher delinquencies and credit losses, it is an excellent trade given the stronger margins and bottom-line returns that the portfolios generate.”

“We had a very successful first half of 2024, posting strong top- and bottom-line results despite the continued impacts of inflation on credit performance,” continued Mr. Beck. “We remain well-positioned to operate effectively through the current economic cycle. As we expect credit losses to improve in the second half of the year, we are excited to begin increasing our investment in our strategic initiatives and portfolio growth, including through the opening of ten new branch locations before year-end and continued expansion of our higher-margin and auto-secured loan portfolios. We look forward to continuing to deliver strong returns to our shareholders while also investing in the business in a way that will enable us to achieve additional, sustainable growth, improved credit performance, and greater productivity, operating efficiency, and leverage over the long-term.”

Second Quarter 2024 Highlights

  • Net income for the second quarter of 2024 was $8.4 million and diluted earnings per share was $0.86, up 37% from $0.63 in the prior-year period.
  • Net finance receivables as of June 30, 2024 were $1.8 billion, an increase of $84.8 million, or 5.0%, from the prior-year period.
    • Large loan net finance receivables of $1.3 billion increased $28.0 million, or 2.3%, from the prior-year period and represented 71.4% of the total loan portfolio, compared to 73.3% in the prior-year period.
    • Small loan net finance receivables of $505.6 million increased $61.1 million, or 13.7%, from the prior-year period and represented 28.5% of the total loan portfolio, compared to 26.3% in the prior-year period.
    • Net finance receivables with annual percentage rates (APRs) above 36% increased to 17.2% of the portfolio from 13.9% in the prior-year period.
    • Total loan originations were $426.1 million in the second quarter of 2024, an increase of $27.1 million, or 6.8%, from the prior-year period, due to controlled growth from credit-tightening actions.
  • Total revenue for the second quarter of 2024 was $143.0 million, an increase of $9.5 million, or 7.1%, from the prior-year period, primarily due to an increase in interest and fee income of $9.8 million related to higher average net finance receivables and 110 basis points of higher interest and fee yield compared to the prior-year period.
    • The increase in interest and fee yield is attributable to increased pricing, growth of the higher-margin small loan portfolio, and improved credit performance.
    • Total revenue yield increased 80 basis points year-over-year, 30 basis points lower than the increase in interest and fee yield due to lower insurance revenues.
  • Provision for credit losses for the second quarter of 2024 was $53.8 million, an increase of $1.3 million, or 2.4%, from the prior-year period, due to higher net credit losses from higher average net receivables ($0.6 million) and a lower provision release compared to the prior-year period ($0.7 million).
    • Annualized net credit losses as a percentage of average net finance receivables for the second quarter of 2024 were 12.7%, a 40 basis point improvement compared to 13.1% in the prior-year period. The second quarter 2024 net credit loss rate is inclusive of a 20 basis point impact from growth of the higher-rate, small loan portfolio.
    • The provision for credit losses for the second quarter of 2024 included a reserve reduction of $1.7 million primarily due to changes in estimated future macroeconomic impacts on credit losses, partially offset by portfolio growth during the quarter.
    • Allowance for credit losses was $185.4 million as of June 30, 2024, or 10.5% of net finance receivables, a 20 basis point decrease sequentially from 10.7% due to improved portfolio credit quality and expectations for improving future macroeconomic conditions.
  • As of June 30, 2024, 30+ day contractual delinquencies totaled $122.7 million, or 6.9% of net finance receivables, a 20 basis point improvement sequentially and comparable to June 30, 2023. The second quarter 2024 delinquency rate is inclusive of a 10 basis point impact from growth of the higher-rate, small loan portfolio.
  • General and administrative expenses for the second quarter of 2024 were $60.1 million, an increase of $3.2 million from the prior-year period. The operating expense ratio (annualized general and administrative expenses as a percentage of average net finance receivables) for the second quarter of 2024 was 13.8%. The prior-year period included an insurance settlement benefit, improving general and administrative expenses and the operating expense ratio in the prior-year period by $1.0 million and 20 basis points, respectively.

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.
