Management report

The Group's turnover during 9 month of the year 2018 in comparison with the corresponding period of the previous year has increased by 5%, while the company's profit during this period has increased by 54.3%.

In June 2018, the Parliament of the Republic of Latvia, on the basis of proposals from individual Parliament members, began to evaluate the changes in the Consumer Rights Protection Law, which resulted in the adoption of amendments to the law. The changes in the law will have an impact on the companies operating in the consumer lending industry. The most significant change, effective as of 1st July 2019, will be the limit of the total cost of credit for consumer loans, which cannot exceed 0.07% per day. Also, as of 1st July 2019, a restriction on consumer lending advertisements will come into force. Approved amendments to the law also include several minor changes that SIA ExpressCredit sees as adding value, such as access to information.

Although legislative changes are voluminous, we see us in the Latvian consumer credit market in the long term. Legislative changes provide both constraints and opportunities. As a result of these changes, the boundary between the classic banks and non-bank loans will actually be broken down. Company anticipates that there will be transformation of the services in the sector, and in the short term decline in turnover is expected, which will be partly offset by lower advertising costs, as well as a review of other costs. In the longer term, the market will move towards more sustainable development. Although the industry's loan portfolio will certainly grow in the long run, there will be separate customer groups that will no longer be able to receive the loan. This should be considered as a disadvantage of legislative planning, as some individual groups of clients will not be profitable to lend due to credit risk. It is positively appreciated that various professional government institutions such as Consumer Rights Protection Centre and the Bank of Latvia consider the regulation for the sector more liberal.

SIA ExpressCredit welcomes the legislator's efforts to improve the exchange of information with borrowers' data, as well as intended positive changes in terms of solvency assessment rules. Clearly, by eliminating the price as a competitive element, other product quality aspects will set at the forefront of a struggle as the elements of competition, where we see the benefits of competitiveness. We think that customers will less likely choose service providers by business type, rather will opt for a product that meets the customer's values, needs, and lifestyles.

In the 3rd quarter of 2018, sale of goods online was established. The online store provides additional channel for the sale of goods, significantly increasing the range of potential customers. The online store provides for customers an opportunity to easily purchase items that are sold at different branches in one place. Delivery will be provided all over Latvia.

In October 2018, in line with the Company's goals to maintain orderly internal processes and ensure high quality of process management, there was successfully completed an annual ISO certification audit in accordance with ISO 9001: 2015 (Quality Management) and ISO 50001: 2012 (Energy Management System) standards.

In general, we see the end of 2018 and 2019 tight and laborious, but we also see the enormous opportunities to be used. The company has successfully managed changes on several occasions and we are fully prepared for them at the moment.

By implementing the business strategy and planned activities, the following financial indicators of the Group were achieved in 9 months of 2018:

Position EUR, million Change* %
Net loan portfolio 19.0 +19.9
Assets 24.6 +15.3
Net profit 3.46 +54.3

* - comparison to the amounts as at 31.12.2017, except for net profit that is compared to respective period of the year 2017.

Branches

During the period from 1 January to 30 September 2018, work on the branch network efficiency was continued. As at 30 September 2018 the Group had 86 branches in 39 cities in Latvia (31.12.2017. - 92 branches in 39 cities).

Post balance sheet events

There are no subsequent events since the last date of the reporting period, which would have a significant effect on the financial position of the Company as at 30 September 2018.
