In the first half of 2024, the Latvian financial services group AS DelfinGroup achieved revenues of EUR 29.1 million, 25% more than in the corresponding period of 2023. In addition, EBITDA in the first six months of 2024 showed solid growth, increasing by 25% year-on-year to EUR 10.5 million. The significant improvement in revenue also contributed to the increase in profitability. Profit before tax for the first six months of 2024 was EUR 4.4 million, up 15%, while net profit increased by 2% to EUR 3.5 million.
Similar positive results were recorded in Q2 2024. Revenues increased by 24% compared to the same period last year and amounted to 14.8 million euros. EBITDA increased by 25% in Q2, while profit before tax rose by 18% to EUR 2.3 million. Net profit for the period was EUR 1.8 million, up 4%.
Strong demand for DelfinGroup products continued throughout the first half of 2024. The Group disbursed a record EUR 51.1 million in loans during this period, up 12%, while Q2 disbursements increased by 20% compared to last year. New consumer loan originations increased by 24% to EUR 19.6 million in Q2 and by 12% in the first 6 months of the year. Meanwhile, the pawn lending segment showed a significant improvement, increasing loan issuance by 10% to EUR 12.8 million in the 6-month period and setting a historical quarterly origination record of EUR 6.5 million in the second quarter of 2024. With increased lending in the first half of the year, a record net loan portfolio of EUR 101.5 million was achieved, already exceeding the strategic target of a net loan portfolio of EUR 100 million at the end of 2025. Since the beginning of the year, the Group's loan portfolio has grown by 14%.
The Group made significant improvements in the sales of the pre-owned, slightly pre-owned, and new goods segment. The segment's sales for the six-month period amounted to EUR 7.6 million, an increase of 12% compared to 2023, while in the second quarter, sales amounted to EUR 4 million.
In the 2nd quarter of 2024, the Group continued active work on business expansion, efficiency and promoting circular economy principles. Business development in Lithuania, where the first branches were opened at the end of 2023, continued, and based on the growing demand, the Group worked on expanding the branch network, leading to the opening of two more branches in Vilnius in July 2024. Also, during the second quarter, active efforts were made to obtain a licence for the provision of consumer loan services, which resulted in the Company's subsidiary DelfinGroup LT UAB being included in the Lithuanian public list of consumer lending service providers at the beginning of July 2024. During the rest of 2024, the Group will continue to work on expanding its branch network in Lithuania and launching its consumer loan offering in Lithuania.
In response to demand, the existing Banknote circular economy store in Daugavpils was expanded into a Banknote XL concept store, increasing the floor space and doubling the range of pre-owned and verified products. This step follows the Banknote XL concept, established last year with the opening of the first XL concept branch in Riga. Similarly, a third Banknote XL branch was opened in Rēzekne shortly after the end of Q2. The new store is almost four times bigger, providing people with an even more comprehensive range of pre-owned and verified products in one place.
In Q2, the Group's management team was strengthened, and Edgars Kokins, who is experienced in the industry, joined the team as Chief Revenue Officer. He will lead processes related to product and service sales, efficiency improvement, branch network development, and international expansion and take part in shaping the company's strategic growth. Edgars Kokins has rich and varied international experience, having worked in 35 countries – Europe, Africa, Asia and South America – and has worked for companies such as Eleving Group, Nutrameg, 4Finance, and CIVITTA, where he led the organisation towards successful change, growth and expansion. E. Kokins graduated with honours from the Stockholm School of Economics in Riga and has successfully led a team of over 250 people in fintech in 9 countries, as well as managed both restructuring and growth projects for existing businesses in Europe and Asia. Sanita Pudnika, the company's former Management Board Member and Chief Commercial Officer, resigned on 28 June.
Thanks to the public offering of shares by the Company's largest shareholders ALPPES Capital AS and Curiosity Capital SIA, the number of the Group's investors increased significantly during the last quarter. During the public offering, ALPPES Capital AS and Curiosity Capital SIA offered to sell up to 8,985,000 shares, representing 19.8% of the Company's total share capital. 1,046 investors from all the Baltic states participated, subscribing for 8,293,780 shares worth EUR 9,040,220, representing 92% of the offer volume. The highest demand came from Latvian investors. In addition to broad based retail interest, several family offices and large investors from Baltic states also participated in the share offer. With the successful closing of the public offer, the number of DelfinGroup shares in free float increased from 29.1% to 47.4%, one of the highest on the Nasdaq Baltic Exchange, which will further increase the liquidity of DelfinGroup shares on the exchange.
On 30 May 2024, the Annual General Meeting approved the 2023 Annual Report and the dividend payment. DelfinGroup shareholders approved two dividend payments. An annual dividend on 2023 profits of EUR 400 thousand, or EUR 0.0088 per share, with a payment date of 12 July 2024, and a quarterly dividend on 2024 Q1 profits of EUR 808 thousand, or EUR 0.0178 per share, with a payment date of 14 June 2024 were approved. As a result of these decisions, a dividend of EUR 1.2 million or EUR 0.0266 per share was paid to DelfinGroup shareholders.
During the reporting period, the Group continued its efforts to improve and diversify its capital structure, issuing new subordinated bonds with a nominal value of EUR 5 million. The bonds are offered as a private placement with a minimum investment of EUR 100,000. The coupon rate of the bonds is set at 11.00% + 3M EURIBOR with maturity on 25 May 2029. The issuance of the subordinated bonds ensures the long-term strengthening of the Group's capital structure, compliance with financial covenants and diversification.
The Group also continues its work on refinancing the existing bonds ISIN LV0000850055, maturing on 25 September 2024. To refinance the bonds, the Group is taking the necessary steps to organise a new public bond issue in the Baltics, offering the Company's bonds to retail and institutional investors. At the General Meeting held on 25 July 2024, the Company's shareholders approved a new public bond issue of up to EUR 15 million, delegating the Company's Management Board to take all necessary steps to conduct the public offer and bond issue. The planned bond issue will be the first public bond issue in the Group's history, as until now, all issues have been organised in the form of a private placement with a higher investment threshold. By organising a public bond issue, the Group intends to expand the Group's investor base by making the Company's bonds more accessible to Baltic investors.
By continuing to support the introduction of new and innovative solutions in children's healthcare services, the Group, in cooperation with the Children's Hospital Foundation, helped the Children's Clinical University Hospital (BKUS) to provide a new anaesthesia machine that will allow young patients to prepare more calmly for surgery. The Group has also supported the training of doctors in new technologies. The total donation to the hospital amounts to almost EUR 66,000.
By implementing the business strategy and all planned activities, the following financial results of the Group were achieved in the first six months of 2024 (profit statement items are compared to the same period of the previous year, balance sheet items are compared to the data as at 31.12.2023):
| Position | EUR, million | Change, % |
|---|---|---|
| Net loan portfolio | 101.5 | +14.1 |
| Assets | 117.4 | +11.7 |
| Revenue | 29.1 | +24.9 |
| EBITDA | 10.5 | +26.4 |
| Profit before taxes | 4.4 | +14.9 |
| Net profit | 3.5 | +2.3* |
*In relation to the changes in CIT applied at the end of 2023 for banks and non-bank lenders, an advance of 20% of the whole 2023 profit was recognised in Q4 2023. As a result, CIT expenses for the first six months of 2023 were recognised only for the distributed dividends. If these changes had not come into effect, the net profit for first six months of 2024 would have been EUR 4.0 million, representing an 18.0% increase compared to the same period of the previous year.

As at 30 June 2024, the Group had 96 branches, 89 in Latvia and 7 in Lithuania (31.12.2023 - 96 branches, 91 in Latvia and 5 in Lithuania).
The Group is not exposed to foreign exchange rate risk because the basic transaction currency is the Euro. The funding of the Group consists of both fixed rate and floating rate borrowings, so the Group is 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 Q2 2024 profit as dividends in accordance with the Company's dividend policy, which sets the target of up to 50% quarterly dividend pay out.

The interim reports do not include all the information and disclosures required in the annual financial statements, and should be read in conjunction with the Group's annual consolidated financial statements as at 31 December 2023.
