STRATEGIC ADVANCES, INCREASED GROWTH AND PROFITABILITY

Qliro's commercial progress accelerated in the first quarter of the year. Increased demand for the company's payment services in combination with effective cost control contributed to stable growth and strengthened operating profit. Strategic advances in product development, new agreements signed, and a growing number of connected merchants on our platform lay the foundation for long-term growth.

Total income increased by 8 percent to SEK 115.8 million and operating profit improved to SEK 5.3 million. This was the result of growing interest in our payment solutions, increased lending to the public, and sustained good cost control. Operating income for the Payment Solutions business segment increased by 12 percent to SEK 99.2 million, driven by increased demand for our Pay Later products.

NEW AGREEMENTS LAY THE FOUNDATION FOR LONG-TERM GROWTH

As previously communicated, in the quarter we signed agreements with Skruvat Reservdelar and Bythjul Norden that are expected to contribute over SEK 1 billion in annual payment volume. The onboarding process is proceeding according to plan and merchants are expected to go live by the end of the third quarter 2024.

After the end of the quarter we also announced a new framework agreement with international e-commerce operator Make Webo with total Pay Now volumes of approximately SEK 500 million, and where the majority of sales are generated outside the Nordics. The framework agreement is in line with our expansion plans outside our domestic market and demonstrates our ability to efficiently scale up our business across national borders.

In parallel with the Make Webo deal, we also announced another framework agreement with existing merchant iPiccolo, which is behind well-known web stores such as Inkclub, Patroner and Dammsugarpåsar. The new agreement allows the inclusion of more web stores and involves the transfer of existing Pay Now volumes of SEK 540 million to Unified Payments.

INCREASED MOMENTUM, MORE ONGOING MERCHANTS DIALOGS

In the first quarter, we have a total of 44 percent more merchants on Qliro's platform compared to the previous year, which signals increased confidence from the market. We are experiencing increased activity, and started several new dialogs with merchants in the quarter that could potentially make a significant contribution to total payment volumes. The launch of Unified Payments increases our competitiveness and facilitates new partnerships, particularly in SME where demand for a standardized, fully packaged and flexible offering is higher compared to the Enterprise segment.

ONGOING ONBOARDING PROCESS FOR A LARGE NUMBER OF MERCHANTS

At the time of writing this report, we have contracted a large number of e-merchants that have yet to be onboarded, providing a solid foundation for future growth. In total, the portfolio of merchants yet to be onboarded is expected to increase payment volumes by over 15 percent.

Operationally, we are currently focusing sharply on the onboarding process in order to speed up the process of new merchants going live on the platform. An important part of this work relates to the launch of Unified Payments, which involves simplified agreement terms and reduced administration, as well as continued investments in digitalization and automation for increased scalability.

INCREASED VOLUMES IN UNIFIED PAYMENTS

In parallel with a streamlined onboarding process and intensified sales efforts, we maintain a sharp focus on product development. Our road map for the Unified Payments service includes the implementation of more payment

methods. The payment methods MobilePay and Trustly went live in the first quarter, and other Nordic currencies were introduced in April. At the end of the quarter, over 20 percent of Qliro's Pay Now volumes were processed in Unified Payments, a sequential increase of over 15 percentage points compared to the fourth quarter 2023.

STABILIZED CREDIT LOSSES IN PAYMENT SOLUTIONS

Credit losses as a proportion of Pay Later volumes increased compared to the previous year, but remained unchanged on the fourth quarter 2023 at 1.8 percent, suggesting that levels are stabilizing. Generally speaking, lending in Payment Solutions is characterized by low average amounts and short maturities, implying high turnover that allows us to take measures with relatively speedy results. Having said this, we closely monitor progress and continue to modernize our platform and models for increased precision in credit assessments, initiatives that are led by our new Chief Credit Officer.

TREND BREAK AND POSITIVE PROGRESS IN E-COMMERCE

According to the Swedish Trade Federation's most recent e-commerce indicator, the Swedish e-commerce market broke the trend to return strong growth in the first two months of the year. For the full quarter, growth was 11 percent, partly driven by capital-intensive segments which indicates increased purchasing power from consumers. Even if our volumes remained unchanged on the previous year due to varied growth in different categories in the enterprise segment, Qliro benefits from the improved market sentiment in the long term, also confirmed by positive sales growth in the remaining portfolio.

FIRST E-MERCHANT GOES LIVE IN NORWAY

The first e-merchant is now live in Norway. Our establishment on the Norwegian market continues as planned, including the ongoing recruitment of a local team with experience in payment solutions. At present, we are implementing a series of product improvements in preparation

for a major launch on the Norwegian market in 2024. In the long term, geographical expansion alongside acceleration in Enterprise and SME are important parts of our growth strategy.

STRENGTHENED MANAGEMENT

At the start of 2024, we made a number of changes to management. Evelin Kaup was appointed new Chief Product Officer, Lina Nätterlund new Chief Credit Officer and Peder Ålenius was appointed to the position of Chief Commercial Officer. In addition, Robin Soubry took on the new role of Chief Strategy Officer. All these executives have solid experience from fast-growing tech companies and payment solutions providers, which further strengthens our ability to deliver on our updated strategy and realize the vision of creating a world-class experience for e-merchants and their customer journey.

DIGITAL BANKING SERVICES

The reduced strategic focus, in combination with the end of direct marketing of the business area's digital banking services reduced operating income by 10 percent and reduced lending by 9 percent in the quarter. Net credit losses remained unchanged on the preceding quarter.

OUTLOOK

We are putting another successful quarter behind us with strategic advances in line with our vision of creating a worldclass experience for our merchants and their customer journey. Our transformation in 2023 has laid a solid foundation for growth and profitability, a trend that is expected to accelerate in the second half of the year through the onboarding of a large number of new merchants.

FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE

THE FIRST QUARTER 2024 COMPARED WITH THE FIRST QUARTER 2023

OPERATING INCOME

Total operating income increased by 8 percent to SEK 115.8 million (106.9). The increase was driven by growing interest in Qliro's payment products and increased lending to the public.

Net interest income increased by 3 percent to SEK 65.3 million (63.7), where interest income increased to SEK 96.4 million (82.8) and interest expenses amounted to SEK -31.1 million (-19.1). Interest income increased as a result of increased interest in the company's BNPL products, which benefits invoicing, and due to an earlier interest adjustment to customers. Interest expenses increased as a result of higher funding costs on the market.

Net commission income increased by 13 percent to SEK 50.7 million (44.7), driven by growing interest in Unified Payments in combination with more consumers using Qliro's Pay Later products.

Net gains and losses on financial transactions amounted to SEK -0.3 million (–1.4).

OPERATING EXPENSES

Operating expenses decreased to SEK -79.4 million (-80.1).

General administrative expenses, comprising consultancy and IT expenses, decreased to -55.8 million (–56.6), mainly due to lower consultancy costs and efficiency gains in the completed profitability program, including digitalization of customer communication.

Other operating expenses increased to SEK -6.6 million (-5.6) driven by increased banking costs.

Depreciation, amortization and impairment fell by 5

percent to SEK -17.0 million (-17.9) and primarily related to amortization of previously capitalized development expenses for e-merchant payment solutions, as well as consumer products, website and app solutions.

CREDIT LOSSES

Net credit losses amounted to SEK –31.2 million (–25.8) due to a changed customer and product mix. It is worth noting that credit losses in nominal terms returned slower growth than the company's income. Credit losses in Digital Banking Services decreased as a result of reduced inflow of new loan volumes. In the quarter, the company reduced loss provisions by SEK 2.3 million in accordance with IFRS 9 as a result of the improved macroeconomic outlook.

PROFIT/LOSS FOR THE PERIOD

Operating profit amounted to SEK 5.3 million (1.1) as a result of increased income in combination with higher capitalized development costs. In addition to direct costs for employees and consultants, from the first quarter 2024 the company also includes direct costs for IT systems and rent related to development projects in the calculations of capitalized expenses. This change had a positive impact on operating profit of SEK 1.6 million in the quarter.

Income tax expense for the period of SEK -1.9 million in relation to operating profit of SEK 5.3 million, was due to interest on subordinated debt of SEK 2.7 million not being tax-deductible, which had a tax impact of SEK 0.6 million.

Profit/loss for the period amounted to SEK 3.4 million (1.1).

PAYMENT SOLUTIONS

ABOUT THE BUSINESS AREA

Qliro offers digital payment solutions to e-merchants in the Nordics. Qliro's checkout is provided both for web and app use, and includes relevant payment methods for direct payments through Pay Now as well as Qliro's own payment methods through Pay Later functionality. Income is mainly generated by offering deferred payment for online purchases (Pay Later), e.g. via invoice, "buy now pay in x months", and various forms of partial payments. When new merchants join the platform, Qliro's payment volumes increase, which gradually drives growth in the loan portfolio and generates income over time.

Qliro's payment solution includes all relevant payment methods for direct payments, referred to as Pay Now. Other payment methods offered in Pay Now include card payments, direct bank payment, mobile payment through Vipps, Mobilpay and Swish, and payment via PayPal and iDeal.

At the end of the first quarter, the number of connected e-merchants on Qliro's platform was 88 (61), an increase of 44 percent year-on-year.

UNIFIED PAYMENTS

Unified Payments is Qliro's complete offering in payment solutions for e-merchants. The service collates different payment methods and involves Qliro acting as an intermediary between e-merchants and payment solution providers, handling payment flows and related processes. This means that Unified Payments simplifies administration and reporting, as well as ensuring a faster onboarding process for new merchants.

In the first quarter 2024, the payment methods Trustly and MobilePay went live in Unified Payments, in addition to existing functionality for card payments and Swish. After the end of the quarter, other Nordic currencies were also introduced.

INCREASED OPERATING INCOME AND IMPROVED EARNINGS ABILITY

Payment Solutions' operating income increased by 12 percent to SEK 99.2 million (88.5) following growing interest in Qliro's flexible payment products (BNPL). The Payments Take-Rate, which measures the business area's earnings

ability in relation to total payment volume, improved to 3.6 percent (3.2). Net interest income increased by 8 percent to SEK 48.8 million (45.3) following an earlier interest rate adjustment to customers. Net commission income increased by 14 percent to SEK 50.6 million (44.5). Credit losses totaled SEK -23.9 million (-18.3) and continued to grow at a slower pace in nominal terms compared to business segment operating income.

For Pay Later volumes, credit losses amounted to 1.8 percent (1.3). This was in line with the previous quarter and was due to a changed product and customer mix. In the quarter, the company reduced loss provisions by SEK 1.1 million in accordance with IFRS 9 as a result of the improved macroeconomic outlook.

BNPL VOLUME GROWTH AND INCREASED LENDING DRIVE INCOME

Qliro's total payment volume in the quarter was SEK 2,734 million (2,735), in line with the previous year. This development is explained by varied growth in different categories in the enterprise segment. The Swedish Trade Federation's e-commerce indicator showed recovery for e-commerce in Sweden, with growth of 11 percent in Q1 2024. Qliro's Pay Now volume increased by 7 percent to SEK 1,421 million. BNPL volumes increased by 4 percent, while total Pay Later volumes decreased by 7 percent to SEK 1,313 million due to lower invoice volumes. The loan portfolio grew by 9 percent in the quarter, to SEK 1,776 million.

BUSINESS SEGMENT

DIGITAL BANKING SERVICES

Comparisons with the first quarter 2023 unless otherwise indicated.

DIGITAL OFFERING FOR EXISTING CUSTOMERS

Within Digital Banking Services, Qliro offers personal loans and savings accounts to individuals in Sweden. Qliro's app makes it easy to manage payments, loans and savings.

INCREASED INCOME MARGIN DESPITE LOWER LENDING

A majority of borrowers had an existing relationship with Qliro, implying low customer acquisition costs and good customer knowledge for loan applicants. Credit checks are automated and based on a combination of internal and external data analyzed in real time. More than half of Qliro's personal loan customers use the loans to consolidate smaller debts with higher interest rates and thereby reduce their interest costs. Lending decreased to SEK 760 million (855) while net interest income decreased by 10 percent to SEK 16.5 million (18.4). This was due to less intensive marketing of the business segment's digital banking services. The income margin improved to 8.7 percent (8.5) in the quarter.

CREDIT LOSSES IN LINE WITH PREVIOUS QUARTERS

Credit losses were SEK -7.3 million (-7.5) in the quarter, a decrease of 3 percent year-on-year following a reduction in loss provisions of SEK 1.3 million in accordance with IFRS 9 as a result of the improved macroeconomic outlook. Credit losses in relation to average lending amounted to 3.8 percent (3.5), in line with the trend for previous quarters.

CAPITAL, FUNDING AND LIQUIDITY

QLIRO IS WELL-CAPITALIZED

Qliro AB's own funds (see Note 9 Capital adequacy) increased to SEK 473 million (432). In addition to Common Equity Tier 1 capital, own funds comprise SEK 100 million in subordinated Tier 2 capital in the form of a subordinated bond issued in 2019.

The risk exposure amount increased to SEK 2,396 million (2,302) due to slightly higher lending in year-on-year terms.

Qliro is well-capitalized and the total capital ratio was 19.8 percent (18.8), compared with the regulatory requirement of 13.7 percent, and the Common Equity Tier 1 capital ratio was 15.6 percent (14.4), compared with the regulatory requirement of 9.6 percent.

DIVERSIFIED FUNDING PLATFORM

In addition to equity, lending to the public was funded by SEK 2,998 million (2,742) in deposits from the public (savings accounts) in Sweden and Germany. Deposits from the public are a flexible and functional form of funding given Qliro's lending, which largely comprises small loans of short duration.

Qliro offers savings accounts to consumers in Sweden and a deposit offering in EUR in Germany in partnership with the open banking platform Raisin. At the end of the quarter, deposits in Sweden amounted to SEK 2,539 million (2,225) and deposits in Germany to SEK 458 million (517).

QLIRO HAS SOLID LIQUIDITY

Qliro has solid liquidity, and as of December 31, 2024 Qliro's cash and cash equivalents totaled SEK 826 million (655).

The liquidity portfolio is invested with Nordic banks and other liquid investments such as Swedish municipal bonds and commercial paper with a minimum rating of AA and average remaining maturity of 52 days.

The Liquidity Coverage Ratio (LCR) as of March 31, 2024 was 489 percent, compared with the legal requirement of 100 percent.

The net stable funding ratio (NSFR) was 141 percent and the leverage ratio was 10.7 percent.

OTHER INFORMATION

EMPLOYEES

The average number of employees was 206 in the first quarter 2024.

SEASONAL EFFECTS

Qliro's Pay Later volumes have historically fluctuated between quarters. For example, Qliro has experienced higher volumes in the fourth quarter due to Black Friday and Christmas shopping through Qliro's merchants' web stores. Conversely, volumes are normally lower in the first and third quarter compared to the fourth quarter. The seasonally strong volumes in the fourth quarter usually result in increased income at the beginning of the year when invoices, to some extent, are converted to flexible part payments and BNPL campaigns, to some extent, are converted to interest-bearing credits.

SIGNIFICANT RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES

Qliro's operations entail daily risks that are measured, controlled and, when necessary, mitigated to protect the company's capital and reputation. The most prominent risks are credit risk, business risk/strategic risk, operational risk, currency risk, interest rate risk and liquidity risk. Qliro's annual report for 2023, published on April 19, 2024, and Qliro's prospectus, dated September 28, 2020, which was released prior to the listing of Qliro's shares for trading on Nasdaq Stockholm, contain a detailed description of the company's risk exposures and risk management.

The last few years' challenging macroeconomic conditions in the form of higher interest rates, rising inflation and increased energy prices, could have a negative impact on consumer demand and consumers' ability to pay their debts. Qliro cannot currently see any discernible effect on the company's income or underlying credit losses.

The Interim Report has been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting. The consolidated accounts are prepared in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) and interpretive statements on these standards as approved for application within the EU. Supplementary information ensuing from the Annual Accounts Act for Credit Institutions and Securities Companies (1995:1559), as well as the Swedish Financial Supervisory Authority's regulations and general advice on annual accounts for credit institutions and securities companies (FFFS 2008:25), have been applied.

RFR 1 Complementary Accounting Rules for Groups and the statement from the Swedish Financial Reporting Board have also been applied in the Consolidated Accounts.

The Parent Company has prepared the interim report in accordance with ÅRKL and the regulations and general advice of the Swedish Financial Supervisory Authority. The Parent Company also applies RFR 2 Accounting for Legal Entities and statements by the Swedish Financial Reporting Board. In accordance with the Swedish Financial Supervisory Authority's general

advice, the Parent Company has applied international financial reporting standards as approved by the EU in the preparation of the financial reports.

Qliro's Year-End Report has been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies and calculation methods applied in the Annual Report for 2023.

Reclassification of debt collection commission

Qliro considers that it is more relevant for amounts recovered through third parties relating to overdue receivables previously presented as commission income to be included in the calculation and presentation of credit loss. This change is being made proactively henceforth, and has been applied retroactively in this Interim Report. The change does not impact total operating profit or profit for the year, nor does it affect primary financial reporting other than the Income Statement. The following amounts have retroactively reduced commission income and credit loss:

the financial reports to understand and evaluate what
management is doing when certain items, subtotals and totals
from the Income Statement are presented or used in other
performance measures.
C/I ratio, % Total expenses before credit losses as a percentage of
total operating income.
The purpose is to provide an indication of the company's cost
effectiveness in relation to total operating income. Also used
in benchmark comparisons.
Net credit losses The period's expected credit losses on Balance Sheet items
as well as the period's established credit losses, net.
The purpose is to track the scale and trend for credit risks in
lending, and to explicitly do so for the scale of forecast-based
credit losses reducing net income for the period.
Credit loss level, % in relation to average
lending
