The second quarter of 2025 was commercially very successful for Axactor with the largest 3PC contract in Spain and the largest 3PC contract in Germany both prolonged for two years, as well as the pre-announced milestone 3PC agreement with a leading financial institution in Norway. The 3PC segment saw continued growth momentum in the quarter with a total revenue of EUR 15.3 million. The NPL segment gross revenue ended at EUR 65.5 million with an NPL performance of 102% for the quarter.
The pre-announced milestone 3PC agreement in Norway will entail debt collection services within a wide range of products, including but not limited to, credit cards, consumer loans, car loans, leasing products and house mortgages. The preparatory work to onboard the new customer has already started, with both system integrations and organizational changes underway to support the volume growth. A substantial recruitment campaign has been initiated to ensure high-quality services are delivered from day-one. The Norwegian 3PC market has been active during the spring and early summer, with Axactor continuously increasing its market share within the bank & finance segment. Combined with the continuation of the largest 3PC contract in both Spain and Germany, the segment is set for further growth in 2026 and 2027.
The Secured NPL sub-segment in Spain has delivered outstanding performance over the past quarters. During the second quarter Axactor acquired a new secured portfolio from a tier-A bank. The
portfolio had an outstanding balance of more than EUR 100 million and consisted of more than 1,200 collaterals. This acquisition ensures further growth within the secured sub-segment, taking advantage of the high-quality processes and competent team that have been established. The development of a new tailor-made system for the special requirements within the secured segment is making good progress, and the system is expected to be fully operational during the second half of 2025.
The strong collaboration between the commercial teams and operational delivery teams continues to give benefits both in terms of topline and profitability throughout the Axactor group. A new strategic choice of offering 3PC services to investment funds acquiring both secured and unsecured non-performing loans in Spain was made in 2024. The services are mainly directed towards portfolios that are out-of-scope for Axactor's NPL investments,
and the new offering has been a significant success. Axactor's extensive experience in handling NPL portfolios ensure superior services can be provided to the investor.
At the end of the second quarter of 2025 Axactor had approximately 904,000 NPL cases under management, with an average outstanding balance of approximately EUR 16,000. A key element in efficient management of the portfolios is automation and directing activities towards the cases with the highest likelihood of payment. Good development is observed on the key performance indicator payer-to-payer, meaning debtors making payments in consecutive months. On average, 77% of debtors that paid in one month also made a payment in the following month. This is a testimony to Axactors focus on sustainable payment plans, ensuring debtors are given realistic timelines for settling their debt and providing Axactor with stable cash flow.
In May, Axactor successfully completed the full-scale migration of the IT infrastructure platform, delivering the project on time and under budget. This strategic initiative included all business units and markets, and demanded close collaboration between IT and the business teams, as well as with a wide range of external vendors.
The final transition to the new infrastructure provider was executed seamlessly, with no major disruptions during the cutover phase. This milestone transition enhances Axactor's operational resilience, scalability, and cost efficiency, and positions the company for continued growth and improved service delivery across all markets.
The results of the human rights due diligence assessment, confirming compliance with fundamental human rights and decent working conditions, was updated and published on the company's websites during the second quarter. Through this assessment, Axactor has not found evidence of any adverse human rights impacts caused by, or contributed to by Axactor. At the same time, this is not something which can be taken for granted and Axactor will continue to work towards improving its human rights impact assessment.
Axactor has been a signatory of the UN Global Compact since June 2021. The communication of progress was submitted 20 May 2025. Axactor discloses its continuous efforts to integrate the Ten Principles into its business strategy, culture, and daily operations. Axactor contributes to the United Nations goals, with a particular
focus on the Sustainable Development Goals, and reaffirms its support of the Ten Principles of the United Nations Global Compact in the areas of Human Rights, Labor, Environment, and Anti-Corruption.
Axactor held its annual general meeting 6 May 2025. All the proposals from the Board of Directors were approved, including the 2024 annual report. No changes to the composition of the Board of Directors were proposed.
Axactor utilizes long-term incentive programs designed to align and incentivize senior management in the Group to create shareholder value, and to retain key employees. In June, the long-term incentive program "ESOP2022" ended with a positive payoff for the participants. The Board of Directors has decided in accordance with the terms and conditions of the long-term incentive program, on a cash settlement of the share options. A total of 1,650,004 share options were vested, of which 1,183,337 options were exercised on 1 July 2025. The 466,667 options not exercised on 1 July 2025 remain vested.
A new long-term incentive program, "ESOP2025", went into effect 6 May 2025. The program is based on performance share units and reflects the Group's long-term performance. The options will vest after three years. Vesting of share options presumes that the individual is an employee of Axactor group.
During the quarter, the NPL directive entered into force in Finland, and Axactor submitted its application for the new license to the Finnish Financial Supervisory Authority during May. In Norway and Spain, the implementation continues to face delays and are expected to enter into force early 2026.
Total revenue for the second quarter ended at EUR 63.8 million (59.1), supported by growth in both business segments. The NPL amortization and revaluation ended at EUR -17.0 million, an improvement from EUR -30.1 million in the second quarter 2024. The gross revenue fell from EUR 89.2 million in the second quarter 2024 to EUR 80.8 million. The main reason for the decline in gross revenue is the portfolio divestments last year. The NPL collection performance was 102% for the quarter, an improvement from 93% in the second quarter last year and affirming the updated collection curves put in place in the fourth quarter 2024.
The NPL segment delivered a total revenue of EUR 48.5 million in the second quarter, up from EUR 45.7 million in the second quarter 2024. The improvement is mainly caused by a lower effective NPL amortization rate of 23% (34%), and net NPL revaluations of EUR -1.9 million compared to -4.6 million in the second quarter 2024. Gross revenue for the NPL segment ended at EUR 65.5 million, down 14% compared to the second quarter last year (75.8). The decline comes mainly as a result of the portfolio divestments last year.
The 3PC segment total revenue ended at EUR 15.3 million, up 14% from the corresponding quarter last year (13.4). All the four
%

NPL 76% countries with an active 3PC segment delivered solid growth, with Norway and Spain being the main growth contributors. A landmark 3PC agreement was reached with a leading financial institution in Norway during the quarter, expected to contribute to significant growth for the Norwegian 3PC revenue when fully operational. The on-boarding will start in the fourth quarter 2025, with a gradual ramp-up going into 2026. Further expansion in the 3PC segment is expected across geographies, with a strong pipeline for new business.
For the first half year, the Group delivered total revenue of EUR 128.8 million (115.6) and a gross revenue of EUR 158.2 million (168.3). The NPL segment total revenue was EUR 98.3 million for the first half year (90.4), up 9% from the first half of 2024. The increase is primarily explained by lower amortizations and net NPL revaluations. The NPL gross revenue fell 11% compared to the same period last year, to EUR 127.7 million (143.0). The decline comes mainly as a result of the large portfolio divestment in the fourth quarter 2024. 3PC total revenue for the first half year was EUR 30.5 million (25.2), up 21% from the first half year 2024, supported by solid growth in all of the four countries having an active 3PC segment.
Total operating expenses before depreciation and amortization for the quarter were EUR 31.3 million. This compares to EUR 28.7 million in the second quarter 2024. The increase is primarily driven by non-recurring cost items in the quarter of EUR 2.2 million. The items mainly relate to a true-up of court fees in Spain, covering the period 2021-2024 and expenses related to the migration to a new IT infrastructure provider. The direct operating expenses for the 3PC segment increased 24%, driven by the increased volume and implementation of new customers. The total operating expenses as percentage of gross revenue thus increased to 36% (excluding the non-recurring cost items) for the second quarter (32%).
Depreciation and amortization – excluding amortization of NPL portfolios – was EUR 2.0 million for the quarter, down from EUR 2.4 million in the corresponding quarter last year.
For the first half year, total operating expenses before depreciation
EUR million and %

and amortization ended at EUR 63.9 million (59.1), or 40% of gross revenue (35%). The main reason for the increase was the increasing share of the 3PC segment, higher cost of sale for repossessed assets, and non-recurring cost items recognized during the first half year 2025. Depreciation and amortization – excluding amortization of NPL portfolios – ended at EUR 4.0 million, down from EUR 4.5 in the first half year 2024.
Total contribution margin from the business segments in the quarter was EUR 42.2 million, up from EUR 40.3 million in the second quarter last year. The main improvement driver was the total revenue growth.
The NPL segment delivered a contribution margin of EUR 37.5 million in the quarter, up from EUR 35.5 million in the corresponding quarter last year. The total operating expenses for the NPL segment increased 8% to EUR 11.0 million (10.2), primarily due to non-recurring legal costs of EUR 1.9 million. The contribution margin over total revenue was 77% (78%).
The contribution margin for the 3PC segment was EUR 4.7 million (4.9). The contribution margin over segment revenue was 31% for the quarter, down from 36% in the second quarter 2024. The main reason for the lower contribution margin compared to last year is costs related to the implementation of new business.
Total contribution from the business segments for the first half year ended at EUR 85.4 million (77.8), of which NPL contributed EUR 75.6 million (69.2) and 3PC contributed EUR 9.8 million (8.6). EBITDA for the quarter ended at EUR 32.5 million, up from EUR 30.3 million in the second quarter 2024. The margin over total revenue was at a solid level of 51%, the same level as the second quarter last year. For the first half year, EBITDA was EUR 64.9 million (56.6), resulting in a healthy EBITDA margin of 50% (49%).
The difference between contribution margin and EBITDA is comprised of unallocated SG&A and IT costs, which amounted to EUR 9.7 million for the quarter. This represents a decrease from EUR 10.0 million in the corresponding quarter 2024. For the first half year, unallocated SG&A and IT cost amounted to EUR 20.5 million (21.3).
Cash EBITDA ended at EUR 49.9 million for the quarter, down from EUR 61.1 million in the second quarter last year. The reduction was primarily driven by the portfolio sales in 2024. For the first half year 2025 the cash EBITDA ended at 96.6 million (110.1).
Operating profit (EBIT) was EUR 30.6 million for the second quarter, compared to EUR 28.0 million in the second quarter last year. For the first half year, operating profit was EUR 60.9 million (52.0).
Total net financial items for the quarter were negative EUR 21.7 million (negative 22.1). The main part of the financial items was made up of interest expense on borrowings of EUR 19.2 million, compared to EUR 22.4 million in the second quarter last year. Other financial expenses ended at EUR 1.8 million for the quarter (0.5), including EUR 1.5 million of roll-over fees associated with bond re-financing activities in the quarter. The net foreign exchange impact for the quarter was negative EUR 1.1 million, compared to
positive EUR 0.7 million in the second quarter last year. Axactor continued to re-purchase bond loans for sub-par values in the second quarter, acquiring a total of EUR 2.9 million in nominal value resulting in an insignificant gain.
For the first half year, total net financial items were negative EUR 38.5 million (negative 45.1), of which interest expenses on borrowings amounted to EUR 38.5 million (44.8). A gain related to repurchase of treasury bonds of EUR 1.3 million was recognized in the first half of 2025, offset by a roll-over fee of EUR 1.5m in connection with bond refinancing activities. The net foreign exchange impact for the first half of 2025 was close to zero, compared to positive EUR 0.3 million for the first half of last year.
Profit before tax ended at EUR 8.9 million for the second quarter (5.9), while net profit ended at EUR 6.9 million (4.3). The effective tax rate was thus 22% for the quarter (27%).
During the first quarter 2025, Axactor acquired full ownership in Reolux Holding S.a.r.l., and consequently there are no non-controlling interests from this date. The profit to the shareholders of the parent company for the second quarter 2025 was thus EUR 6.9 million (4.2), The resulting earnings per share was EUR 0.023 for the second quarter 2025 both on a reported basis and fully diluted (0.014).
For the first half year, profit before tax ended at EUR 22.3 million (6.9), while the net profit ended at EUR 17.0 million (5.0). The effective average tax rate for the period was 24%, compared to 27% in the first half year of 2024. EUR 17.0 million of the net profit was attributable to shareholders of the parent company (4.9).
Net cash flow from operating activities, including NPL investments, amounted to EUR -13.9 million (-18.0) for the quarter, of which the amount paid for NPL portfolios was EUR 27.3 million (71.0). The deviation between the investment in NPL portfolios and the cash paid for NPL portfolios in the period relates to deferred payments on certain portfolios. The total cash flow from operations excluding investments in NPL portfolios ended at EUR 13.4 million (53.0). In addition to the reduction in cash EBITDA, the decrease was driven by a reduction in net working capital of EUR 32.4 million (5.3), which is mostly related to bond-repurchases that were closed at the end of the first quarter but paid for in April. Taxes paid increased to EUR 4.1 million compared to EUR 2.8 million in the second quarter last year.
For the first half year, net cash flow from operating activities was EUR 61.8 million (11.1), including NPL investments of EUR 32.2 million (84.3), cash EBITDA of EUR 96.6 million (110.1), taxes paid of EUR 6.7 million (11.6) and a decrease in net working capital of EUR 4.4 million (increase of 3.2).
Total net cash flow from investing activities, not including investments in NPL portfolios, was EUR -0.9 million for the second quarter, compared to EUR -0.7 million for the second quarter 2024. The net cash flow from investments for the first half year was EUR -1.7 million, compared to EUR -1.5 million in the first half year 2024. Total net cash flow from financing activities was EUR 26.3 million for the quarter (18.0), with net proceeds from credit facilities of EUR 53.1 million (41.2). Loan fees paid in relation to the extension of the multi-currency revolving credit facility (RCF) and the issuance of the new ACR05 bond was EUR 9.0 million in the second quarter (0.0). Interests paid decreased from EUR 22.5 million in the second quarter last year, to EUR 17.9 million in the second quarter 2025. The decrease is partly related to reduced reference rates (EURIBOR, NIBOR and STIBOR) during the period, as well as reduced outstanding debt. For the first half year, total net cash flow from financing activities was EUR -46.3 million (-6.1), with interests paid of EUR 36.2 million (44.2), and a net repayment on credit facilities of EUR 0.7 million (net drawdown of 39.8).
Total net cash flow was thus EUR 11.4 million for the quarter (-0.8) and EUR 13.8 million for the first half year (3.5), leaving total cash and cash equivalents at EUR 46.8 million at the end of the period (35.2). This does not include EUR 1.9 million in restricted cash (1.9).
Total equity for the Group was EUR 347.3 million at the end of the first half year 2025, up from EUR 331.7 million at the end of last year (422.9). The increase during the first half year is due to the results recognized during the period. The resulting equity ratio at the end of the quarter was 27% (29%).
Driven by the improvements in total revenue and lower financial expenses, the annualized return on equity for the second quarter ended at 8% (4%). Adjusted for non-recurring costs in the quarter the return on equity was 12%. The return on equity for the first half year was 10%, or 12% excluding non-recurring items, compared to 2% for the first half of 2024. With lower interest rates, improved NPL collection performance, strong 3PC growth and a continued focus on cost, Axactor expects to continue to deliver a return on equity at a healthy level throughout 2025.
Axactor invested EUR 27.2 million in NPL portfolios during the second quarter, primarily in Spain (70.4). The moderate investment level is expected to pick up later in 2025. The book value of NPL portfolios ended at EUR 1,092.3 million, up from EUR 1,087.5 at year-end 2024 (1,283.9), while the estimated remaining collections ended at EUR 2,320.1 million (2,664.0). Estimated future NPL investment commitments stand at EUR 5.9 million per the end of the first half year, EUR 4.3 million of which is related to the remainder of 2025. Adding the investments made during the first quarter, the total NPL investments for the first half year was EUR 32.4 million (81.2).
Axactor placed a new EUR 125 million bond during the second quarter, with a four-year maturity. The bond is expected to be listed before year-end, with the ticker ACR05. The proceeds from the bond issuance were used to refinance parts of the ACR03 bond.
With this new bond issuance, Axactor has a total of three outstanding bond loans. The EUR 300 million bond with ticker ACR03 matures in September 2026. A total face value of EUR 234.8 million has been re-purchased and cancelled, and the nominal value of the bond is EUR 65.2 million per the end of the first half of 2025. The NOK 2,300 million bond with ticker ACR04 was placed during the third quarter 2023, with maturity in September 2027. A total face value of EUR 1.7 million was re-purchased during the first quarter, and consequently the outstanding face value of the bond at the end of the first half year was EUR 194.4 million.
Axactor's RCF has a total size of EUR 545 million, of which EUR 516.6 million was drawn per the end of the first half (509.0). Additionally, the agreement has a EUR 275 million accordion option, contingent on separate credit approval. The maturity of the RCF agreement was extended to June 2028 during the second quarter 2025.
Total interest-bearing debt including capitalized loan fees and accrued interest amounted to EUR 883.0 million at the end of the first half of 2025 (975.8).
Axactor is in compliance with all loan covenants as per the end of the first half of 2025.
With the issuance of a new EUR 125 million bond loan and the extension of the RCF in the second quarter of 2025, the refinancing risk for the Group has been significantly reduced. Axactor have no maturities in 2025 and the 2026 maturity is reduced to EUR 65.2 million. Investments in attractive NPL portfolios is expected to pick up during the second half of 2025, and the current investment
guiding of EUR 100 – 200 million per year for the period 2024- 2026 is reiterated. The estimated replacement capex for 2025 is EUR 66.0 million.
The 3PC segment continue to show strong momentum, with further growth expected across all four countries where Axactor offer the product. The continued growth for the segment is supported by the Norwegian landmark agreement announced in the second quarter, together with numerous other significant contracts signed during the first half year. Additionally, the pipeline remains very healthy, further enhancing the segment outlook.
NPL collection performance has been stabilized at a level of more than 100% during the first half year, and Axactor expect to continue to deliver stable performance through 2025. Although the collections will still be impacted by macroeconomic conditions, legislative changes and geopolitical uncertainty, there are upsides from falling interest rates and an expected improvement in both the market for refinancing unsecured loans and in debtor's real disposable income. Falling interest rates will also benefit Axactor in terms of reduced interest expenses. Furthermore, Axactor are accelerating its operational optimization program to enhance efficiency and reduce structural costs.

1 Axactor ASA acquired the remaining 50 percent of the shares in Reolux Holding S.à r.l in the first quarter 2025
The parent company Axactor ASA (the Company) is a company domiciled in Norway. These condensed consolidated interim statements ("interim financial statements") comprise the Company and its subsidiaries (together referred to as "the Group"). The Group is primarily involved in debt management, specializing in both purchasing and collection on own portfolios and providing collection services for third-party owned portfolios. The activities are further described in note 3.
This unaudited interim report has been prepared in accordance with IAS 34. The accounting policies applied correspond to those described in the annual report 2024. This interim report does not contain all the information and disclosures available in the annual report and the interim report should be read together with the annual report 2024.
In preparing these interim financial statements, management has made judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, revenue and expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
Accounting policies and significant judgements, estimates and assumptions are more comprehensively discussed in the annual report 2024. The significant judgements made by management applying the Group's accounting policies and the key sources of estimation uncertainty were the same as those described in the last annual financial statements. Management continues to assess the data and information available at the reporting date.
All prior year figures presented are for continuing operations, unless otherwise stated.
All economic activities are associated with risk. Axactor's risks are managed within the Group in accordance with the policies established by the Board. For more information on financial risks and risk management, one is referred to note 3 of the Group's financial statements in the annual report 2024.
The Group's long-term strategy is to hedge between 50% and 70% of interest-bearing debt with a duration of three to five years. The Group is gradually implementing the strategy in line with new portfolio investments by entering into hedgeinstruments / derivatives agreements. These instruments are recognized as hedge instruments to reduce the interest volatility in the statement of profit or loss.
The Group aims to reduce currency risk by keeping interest-bearing debt in the same currencies as the Group's assets. The Group also holds cross currency interest rate swaps to reduce currency risk.
The Group monitors its risk of a shortage of funds using cash flow forecasts regularly. On 30 Jun 2025, the Group had an unused part of the RCF agreement of EUR 28.4 million, in addition to unrestricted cash and cash equivalents of EUR 46.8 million. The Group had positive cash flow from operating activities before NPL investments of EUR 13.4 million in the second quarter 2025, and cash flows from operating activities amounted to EUR -13.9 million.
The table of contractual maturities analyses non-derivative financial liabilities of the Group into relevant maturity groupings based on the remaining period from the balance sheet date to the contractual maturity date. The contractual maturity is based on the earliest date on which the Group may be required to pay. The amounts disclosed in the table are the contractual undiscounted cash flows of liabilities. For NPL investment commitments, expected cash flows are presented.
The maturity calculation is made under the assumption that Axactor has a constant revolving credit facility draw in the period. The table includes both interest and principal cash flows. The loan repayment amounts presented are subject to change dependent on changes in variable interest rates. To the extent that interest rates are floating, the undiscounted payable interest is derived from the interest rate curves at the end of the reporting period.
The Group's estimated remaining collections from purchased loan portfolios for the next 15 years are presented below the table of contractual maturities (see also note 6).

Axactor delivers credit management services and the Group's revenue is derived from the following two operating segments:
• Non-performing loans (NPL)
• Third-party collection (3PC)
The NPL segment invests in portfolios of non-performing loans, presented as 'Purchased loan portfolios' in the consolidated statement of financial position. Subsequently, the outstanding loans are collected through either amicable or legal proceedings.
The 3PC segment's focus is to perform debt collection services on behalf of third-party clients. The operating segment applies both amicable and legal proceedings to collect the non-performing loans, and normally receive a commission for these services. Other services provided include, amongst others, helping creditors to prepare documentation for future legal proceedings against debtors, handling of invoices between the invoice date and the default date and sending out reminders. For these latter services, Axactor normally receives a fixed fee.
Axactor reports its business through reporting segments which correspond to the operating segments. Segment profitability and country profitability are the two most important dimensions when making strategic priorities and deciding where to allocate the Group's resources. Segment revenue reported represents revenue generated from external customers.
The accounting policies of the reportable segments are the same as the Group's accounting policies described in note 1. Segment contribution margin represents contribution margin earned by each segment. The measurement basis of the performance of the segment is the segment's contribution margin.

Purchased loan portfolios consists of portfolios of delinquent consumer debts purchased significantly below nominal value, reflecting incurred and expected credit losses, and thus defined as credit impaired. For purchased loan portfolios, timely collection of principal and interest is no longer reasonably assured at the date of purchase. Purchased loan portfolios are recognized at fair value at the date of purchase. Since the loans are measured at fair value, which includes an estimate of future credit losses, no allowance for credit losses is recorded on the day of acquisition of the loans. The loans are subsequently measured at amortized cost according to a credit adjusted effective interest rate.
Since the delinquent consumer debts are a homogenous group, the future cash flows are projected on a portfolio basis except for secured portfolios, for which cash flows are projected on a collateral asset basis. The majority of the purchased loan portfolios are unsecured, whereas approximately 11% of the book value of the loans are secured by a property object per 30 June 2025 (2024: 6%).
The carrying amount of each portfolio is determined by projecting future cash flows discounted to present value using the credit adjusted effective interest rate as at the date the portfolio was acquired. The total cash flows (both principal and interest) expected to be collected on purchased credit impaired loans are regularly reviewed. Changes in expected cash flows are adjusted in the carrying amount and are recognized in the profit or loss as revenue or expense in 'Net gain/ (loss) purchased loan portfolios'. Interest revenue is recognized using a credit adjusted effective interest rate, included in 'Interest revenue from purchased loan portfolios'.
The estimation of future cash flows is affected by several factors, including general macro factors, market specific factors, portfolio specific factors and internal factors. Axactor has incorporated into the estimated remaining collections the effect of the economic factors and conditions that is expected to influence collections going forward. Scenarios have been used to consider possible non-linear relationships between macroeconomic factors and collections.
For more information on accounting principles and a description of significant accounting judgments, estimates and assumptions related to purchased loan portfolios, see note 2.10.1 and note 4 in the Group's annual report 2024.
