Creditas announces Q4 2020 financial performance
São Paulo, 01 February 2021
Today, we announce the results corresponding to the 4th quarter of 2020.
| In R$ millions | Q4-2020 | Q4-2019 | FY-2020 | FY-2019 |
| Credit portfolio | 1,254.7 | 679.3 | 1,254.7 | 679.3 |
| New loan origination | 312.7 | 189.4 | 903.9 | 531.5 |
| Revenues | 104.1 | 66.5 | 336.2 | 178.4 |
| Contribution Margin | 53.2 | 43.8 | 177.4 | 102.0 |

| Net income | -56.5 | -69.1 | -185.9 | -202.2 |
In Q4-20 our revenues passed the R$100mn mark due to the growth reacceleration started in Q3-20 and expansion of our credit portfolio. The continued high quality of our credit portfolio and resilience of debt capital markets enabled us to continue the accelerated growth path that we had prior to COVID and resulted in a record new loan origination of R$312.7mn in the quarter.
Contribution margin (discounting funding costs, servicing costs, credit provisions and taxes) ended the quarter at 51.1% as we increased the leverage of the credit portfolio. Net loss fell 18% from Q4-19 despite increase in SG&A as we gain scale through the expansion of our credit portfolio and the related boost in revenues.
In Q4-20 we completed 4 securitizations for a total of R$239mn with Debt Capital Markets showing high resilience for Creditas as investors increase appetite to our unique asset class. We issued a new FIDC (FIDC Auto III) in which S&P reaffirmed the AAA local rating for the senior quotas.
