Encore Capital Group Announces Second Quarter 2024 Financial Results
•Highly favorable purchasing conditions continue in U.S. market
•Global portfolio purchases of $279 million including record $237 million in the U.S.
•Global collections of $547 million up 15% compared to Q2 2023
•GAAP EPS of $1.34
SAN DIEGO, August 7, 2024 -- Encore Capital Group, Inc. (NASDAQ: ECPG), an international specialty finance company, today reported consolidated financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2024.
“Encore’s second quarter results are a continuation of our strong performance trajectory,” said Ashish Masih, President and Chief Executive Officer. “Our year-to-date growth in portfolio purchasing, collections and cash generation reinforces our belief that 2024 will be a turning point in Encore’s operational and financial results.”
“In the U.S., the market for charged-off receivable portfolios continues to grow to record levels, driven by growth in credit card lending and rising charge off rates. Amid these favorable purchasing conditions, we deployed a record $237 million in the U.S. at strong returns.”
“In Europe, the portfolio purchasing market is showing continued signs of improvement but remains competitive. Although we continue to see examples of improved pricing, we believe European market pricing still does not consistently reflect the higher cost of capital caused by higher interest rates. As a result, we are maintaining discipline and are continuing our selective approach to purchasing portfolios in the region.”
“Our second quarter global collections of $547 million were up 15% compared to a year ago, reflecting the influence of our strong portfolio purchasing in the U.S. over the past two years as well as the stable collections environment in our key markets.”
“Due to the strength of our position in the favorable U.S. market for portfolio purchasing and the continued execution of our strategy, we are raising our 2024 guidance provided in February. We now anticipate our global portfolio purchasing this year will exceed $1,150 million and we expect our year-over-year collections growth to be approximately 11% to over $2,075 million. We also remain committed to the critical role we play in the consumer credit ecosystem and to helping consumers restore their financial health,” said Masih.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This news release includes certain financial measures that exclude the impact of certain items and therefore have not been calculated in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). The Company has included information concerning adjusted EBITDA because management utilizes this information in the evaluation of its operations and believes that this measure is a useful indicator of the Company’s ability to generate cash collections in excess of operating expenses through the liquidation of its receivable portfolios. Adjusted EBITDA has not been prepared in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to, or more meaningful than, net income and net income per share as indicators of the Company’s operating performance. Further, this non-GAAP financial measure, as presented by the Company, may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. A reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to its most directly comparable GAAP financial measure is below.

In his current and previous roles with the organization, Hernanz has worked closely with Clark and senior leadership to implement Encore’s global funding structure in 2020, implement new asset-backed financing facilities, and issue corporate bonds in various global markets. Prior to joining the organization, Hernanz served in senior investment and financial roles with several global firms, including Goldman Sachs and Citigroup.
“Jonathan has been an invaluable member of our leadership team, and we extend our heartfelt gratitude for his dedicated service to Encore and its investors, consumers and colleagues for more than a decade,” said Ashish Masih, President and CEO of Encore Capital Group. “So much of what makes Encore a respected industry leader today has been directly influenced by Jonathan’s vision and guidance. I wish him the very best in his well-deserved retirement.”
“I am confident that Tomas Hernanz, with his proven track record and substantial industry knowledge, will seamlessly transition into the Encore CFO role and continue to drive our disciplined strategy and financial excellence,” Masih added. “His deep understanding of and considerable relationships across U.S., U.K. and European financial markets have been and continue to be great assets, and I look forward to working with Tomas more closely in his new role.”
Together, Clark and Hernanz will begin an orderly transition period until Clark’s retirement next March. Hernanz will join Encore’s Executive Leadership Team and will relocate from London to Encore’s headquarters in San Diego.
