Collections remained strong in the second quarter with an unsecured collection performance of 112 % up from 111 % in the same quarter last year. Cash collections were up 9 %, driven by 12 % higher unsecured collections.
Cash EBITDA was NOK 1,151 million and adjusted EBIT was NOK 484 million. Adjusted Net profit was NOK 202 million equivalent to adjusted Earnings per share of NOK 0.55, down from NOK 0.68 in the same quarter last. Adjusted for the sale of the loan receivables business in Poland in the second quarter last year, reported Cash EBITDA was up 12 %, adjusted EBIT was up 19 % and adjusted Earnings per share was up 65 % year-over-year.
B2 Impact invested NOK 450 million in new portfolios in the second quarter. The investments in the quarter were only unsecured portfolios. Signing and closing of some larger transactions were slightly postponed into the third quarter. Year to date, the Group has invested and committed NOK 2.1 billion for 2025.
B2 Impact has a solid and diversified funding structure to support further growth. The leverage ratio at the end of the second quarter was 2.4x and is expected to decrease in the coming quarters. The Group holds an EUR 610 million senior secured revolving credit facility (RCF) and three senior unsecured bond loans for a total of EUR 650 million.
“As communicated in connection with our Q1 release we see considerable upside in our ERC (Estimated Remaining Collections), supported by sustainably higher collection performance and extended collection curves in our vintage portfolios. This positions us well for future earnings visibility and supports the long-term value of our portfolios.
In early 2025 we initiated a plan to accelerate REO sales which will significantly increase our cash flow for 2025 and 2026. Per end of Q2 we have sold REOs for NOK 155m and expect REO sales of NOK 600 - 800m for the full year, which supports additional portfolio investments and growth in earnings the next years” said Trond Kristian Andreassen, CEO of B2 Impact ASA.
