Generalfinance: Overview

Long Standing Experience, Specialisation and Unique Positioning

Generalfinance: Overview

  • Leading independent player in the white space of factoring for Distressed Italian SMEs, unserved by traditional banks, with no comparable companies
  • Digital platform enables unique efficiency, knowledge of clients (competitive advantage) and better risk management
  • Competitive advantage with tailor-made services to customers by using a unique in-house Scoring and Rating system and high sector diversification
  • Excellent risk management due to digital platform data management and managerial proven experience
  • Strong growth opportunities supported by sound capital and excellent funding structure
  • Management with a solid experience in financial services to distressed companies, as well as significant skills in business development

In accordance with the interpretation provided for pro-solvendo transactions by the Bank of Italy following the 2022 inspection, in 4Q 2023 Generalfinance has applied a new definition of default (DoD) under which past due amounts are to be counted from the moment they exceed 1% of the relevant exposure (and are higher than 100 euro or 500 euro depending on the type of the counterparty), even if there is a buffer between the nominal value of the receivable and the company's exposure.

However, there was no impact in Q4 2023 deriving from the application of the new DoD, thanks to a proactive collection and credit management activities on certain exposures.

However, due to the new DoD, it is possible that past due amounts may experience greater volatility in the future.

Leader in the high-growth distressed market segment

In the overall fast growing factoring market (turnover in Italy is expected to grow from € 290bn in 2023 up to €300bn in 2024) Generalfinance focuses on distressed sellers (UTP, forborne and past due) with a portfolio of performing debtors (in bonis)

Ranking of the Italian factoring market – 2023 (%) Sellers by Size – 2023

Notes: (1) range of values estimated in the last Assifact report «ForeFact» 24 n.2 Source: Assifact monthly and quarterly statistics

Addressable market

The worsening financial conditions of Italian companies expected in the next three-year period and the consequent increase in rates of deterioration could in fact drive a growth in the potential turnover of factoring to distressed companies by 8 percent annually, up to a market value of ca. 40 billion € by 2024

Vulnerable companies and new procedures

Digital, Low Risk Player

A strategic asset: the proprietary digital platform

An organization oriented to risk control and business

A unique business model, leveraging the factoring features

The peculiarity of Generalfinance's business model is the choice of Seller–Debtor, where clients (Sellers) typically have a low credit rating (turnaround situation) while the Debtors underlying customer loans refer to a high credit rating ("investment grade")

Notes: 1) Generalfinance data refers to December 31, 2023 (LTM); Assifact data refers to September 30, 2023; 2) Assifact data net of household debtors.

Collection performance: a strategic delivery to our Customers

Generalfinance boasts an excellent portfolio quality, both in terms of Payment Conditions and Payment Delays

Risk reduction in Distressed Factoring

Given that the majority of Generalfinance's turnover is realized towards distressed Sellers, the Company can benefit from a reduction in risk, because of 3 main factors

Lower Credit Risk

  • o Effects of insolvency proceedings on financial position (ex. credit write-offs)
  • o Recovery and relaunch plan
  • o Possible change in the Governance
  • o Possible capital injection or new financing
  • o Predeductibility (i.e., superpriority) of receivables arising from loans disbursed in execution of the plan and loans disbursed prior to the submission of the composition with creditors plan, respectively, if the conditions provided by the regulations are met

Lower Operating Risk

  • o Court approval (arrangement with creditors, restructuring agreement)
  • o Supervision by the court commissioner (arrangement with creditors)
  • o Presence of high standing Financial Advisors and Legal Counsels
  • o Management change

  • o Financial assistance for the implementation of the agreement / plan / arrangement with creditors with exemptions from clawback actions
  • o Authorization for bridge financing (in these cases, the risk of clawback actions is excluded on a de facto basis)
  • o Factoring law and related protections (clawback actions regarding collections from assigned debtors)

DEFINITION OF DEFAULT (DOD)

In accordance with the interpretation provided for pro-solvendo transactions by the Bank of Italy following the 2022 inspection, in 4Q 2023 Generalfinance has applied a new definition of default (DoD) under which past due amounts are to be counted from the moment they exceed 1% of the relevant exposure (and are higher than 100 euro or 500 euro depending on the type of the counterparty), even if there is a buffer between the nominal value of the receivable and the company's exposure.

However, there was no impact in Q4 2023 deriving from the application of the new DoD, thanks to a proactive collection and credit management activities on certain exposures.

However, due to the new DoD, it is possible that past due amounts may experience greater volatility in the future.

Cost of Risk has been computed as Credit Risk Adjustments / Annual Disbursed Loans;

2021 2022 2023

Gross NPE («Non-Performing Exposure») Ratio has been computed as Gross NPE / Gross Loans to Customers

Default Rate and NPE Ratio constantly improving

Default rate: NPE inflow of the year / loans disbursement flow of the year Assifact NPE Ratio (%) as at September, 30 2023

A very simple balance sheet with a strong capital position…

RWA Density: RWA / Total Asset

Note: CET1 Ratio and Total Capital Ratio calculated taking into account the net profit of 2023 and total dividends to be distributed (payout 50% of net profit)

…coupled with a robust funding and liquidity position

Note: Commercial Papers included in «Fixed Rate»

Liquidity Position: excluding pledged accounts equal to 5.0 €mln

Securitization: included only for an amount equal to the credit lines approved by banks

Net interest Income fully «hedged» against interest rates volatility

Notes: (1) Calculated as interest expense / average financial liabilities (current and previous year); (2) Spread: average interest rate on seller – average cost of funding (3) (Interest income + delayed payment Interest + other interest)/ average loans (current and previous year); (4) Calculated as Net Interest income/ average loans (current and previous year)

Net commission income, the primary source of profitability

▪ Net Commission Income ~75% of the Net Banking Income

  • Commission Income/Turnover slightly lower YoY, taking into consideration the different mix of the portfolio (Corporate Sellers vs Retail Sellers)
  • Stable commission expense rate thank to optimization of insurance costs and banking fees

Cost / Income reflecting the efficiency of the operating machine

Note: (1)Other net revenues and risk charges; (2) Operating Costs / Net Banking Income.

Operating costs 2022 Adjusted (net of IPO costs): 11.6 €mln

Benefits of pro-solvendo lending contract

The offsetting mechanism is a specific technicality of the Factoring Agreement, which is elaborated consistently with the Assifact standard

ARTICLE 28 OF GENERALFINANCE FACTORING AGREEMENT

"The Factor will be entitled to retain sums and set off the debts (of every kind) due by the Factor to the Seller against the Receivables (of every kind) due from the Seller to the Factor, including the Receivables due from the Seller to third parties and assigned to/guaranteed by the Factor.

Should the Seller default on any of its payment obligations, the Factor will be able to treat its Receivables as liquid and payable, even if not already fallen due. Offsets by the Seller require the prior written consent of the Factor".

A PRACTICAL EXAMPLE:

In FY 2021, Generalfinance paid an average advance equal to 80% of Turnover. With regard to the prosolvendo factoring, Generalfinance is entitled to set off amounts owed by the Sellers to it against amounts owed by Generalfinance to the Sellers based on specific clauses included in the factoring agreement.

The Company has a high Debtor/Seller ratio equal to 58, growing steadily over the last 3 financial years, against an average of the Italian factoring market calculated excluding private assigned Debtors - equal to 101 , which expands the possibilities of offsetting between receivables and debit items against the Sellers as part of pro-solvendo transactions.
