During the 1st quarter of 2022 Latvian financial services company AS DelfinGroup has reached a turnover of EUR 7.5 million which is 24% more compared to the same period in 2021. Over the first three months of 2022 EBITDA also showed a stable growth increasing by 8% while the Group achieved significant profitability improvements. Profit before taxes during the first three months of 2022 increased by 42% year-on-year and reached EUR 1.6 million, at the same time net profit increased by 76% and reached EUR 1.4 million. The increased revenue was mainly facilitated by the growth of activity in consumer lending, pawn lending and retail of pre-owned goods segments, while profitability was significantly improved by reduced costs of interest-bearing liabilities.
In the first quarter of 2022 AS DelfinGroup issued EUR 15.1 million EUR in new loans securing loan issuance growth of 60% year on year. Growth in loan issuance was mainly supported by significant consumer lending increase that grew by 73%. In addition, easing of Covid-19 restrictions during the first quarter gave a positive impact on pawn loan issuance which increased by 30% compared to the same period in 2021. Consequently, strong loan issuance resulted in a record high net loan portfolio amount reaching EUR 47.1 million which is 46% increase year-on-year.
On 1 March the composition of the Management Board of AS DelfinGroup was changed: Sanita Zitmane was appointed as a Member of the Management board. She replaced Chief Operations Officer Ivars Lamberts who decided to resign from his position as a Member of the Management Board and to undertake other activities outside the Group.
During the first three months of 2022 AS DelfinGroup completed the acquisition of the AS Moda Kapitāls pawn shop business, which was started in August 2021. AS Moda Kapitāls owned the fourth largest pawn shop network in Latvia and the acquisition of its business will strengthen the leading position of AS DelfinGroup in regions. After the conclusion of the deal, a new branch was opened in Daugavpils, while Banknote branches in Ludza and Preiļi was moved to better and larger premises.
Another major improvement during the last quarter was increasing the maximum available loan amount for VIZIA clients from EUR 7 000 up to EUR 10 000. Such step will allow VIZIA brand to adapt the growing customer demand for larger loan transactions that have been observed over the last periods.
Following the aggression of Russia in Ukraine, during the 1st quarter of 2022 AS DelfinGroup actively supported the war-affected people of Ukraine and donated in total EUR 100 000 to two initiatives: EUR 70 000 for the Entrepreneurs for Peace (Uzņēmēji mieram) movement and EUR 30 000 for the Ziedot.lv Stand With Ukraine initiative.
On 28 March AS DelfinGroup held an Extraordinary Meeting of Shareholders during which shareholders of AS DelfinGroup approved dividend distribution in the amount of EUR 780 thousand, namely EUR 0.0172 per share, from the profit of 4th quarter of 2021. Dividends were paid according to AS DelfinGroup dividend policy which anticipate quarterly dividend payments up to 50% from previous quarters' net profit. In addition, shareholders approved amendments to the Employee Stock Options Program allowing the company to grant up to 100 000 shares within the period of 4 years to strategic employees.
On 30 March AS DelfinGroup published its audited annual report and Corporate Governance Report for 2021. Reports are available at AS DelfinGroup webpage www.delfingroup.lv or on Nasdaq Riga stock exchange.

As at 31 March 2022, the Group had 93 branches in 38 cities in Latvia (31.12.2021 - 93 branches in 38 cities).
The Group is not exposed to foreign exchange rate risk because the basic transaction currency is the Euro. Majority of the funding of the Group consists of fixed coupon rate bonds and loans, so that the Group is not exposed to variable interest rate risk. Accurate application of the prudent strategies chosen has allowed the Group to successfully manage its financial risks, particularly the liquidity and credit risk. All Group transactions are performed in Latvia, the Group has no counterparties in Russia and Belarus thus the impact of the war in Ukraine and the associated sanctions has insignificant effect on the company's operations.
The Company's board recommends the distribution of Q1 2022 profit as dividends in accordance with the Company's dividend policy, which sets the target of 50% quarterly dividend payout.

The following table presents income, profit, asset and liability information regarding the Group's operating segments. Based on the nature of the services, the Group's operations can be divided as follows (statement of profit or loss provisions are compared for the same period of the previous year, balance sheet positions are compared to the data as at 31.12.2021):

Countries round the world support Ukraine by announcing financial and economic sanctions against Russian Federation and its ally Republic of Belarus.

In addition, the management performed an overview and analysis of its counterparties and confirms that the Group does not have any relations with the sanctioned companies and sanctioned private individuals. There is still uncertainty related to final outcome of the situation, but the management regularly follows on the further developments, analyses a possible impact on the Group's business and is properly prepared to assess and implement any changes into business operations, risk management practices, policies and accounting estimates.
