Summary of the year “Challenges, change and progress”

Challenges, change and progress

Royal Commission

==> picture [88 x 88] intentionally omitted <==

  • As a consequence of the Royal Commission, banks and other financial institutions adopted a softer approach to debt collection.

  • AFSA reported that bankruptcies for 2019 were at their lowest level in 24 years. These figures clearly reflect the outcome of a more benign collection environment.

  • This temporarily slowed demand for our services in the second half of the 2019 financial year.

  • Between July and November, the downward trend has stabilised and is reversing.

7

FSA Group Ltd AGM presentation 2019

Challenges, change and progress

Amendments to the Bankruptcy Act

==> picture [88 x 88] intentionally omitted <==

  • The amendments, which took effect from 27 June 2019, limit the time to repay debt under a debt agreement to:

  • 3 years for non-home owners and

  • 5 years for home owners.

  • These amendments were not foreseen.

  • As predicted non-home owners have been adversely affected.

  • In July 2019 we formally launched our new service, an informal arrangement to assist non-home owners with their debt.

8

FSA Group Ltd AGM presentation 2019

Challenges, change and progress

Amendments to the Bankruptcy Act (continued)

==> picture [88 x 88] intentionally omitted <==

  • The launch has been successful with positive feedback from clients and creditors. From July to November we have assisted over 500 clients with informal arrangements.

  • As previously stated, we do not see the amendments as having a material impact on the number of clients we are able to assist or the long term financial performance of FSA.

Consumer Lending growth strategy

  • We allocated key management resources to develop a long term growth strategy for our Consumer Lending segment.

Services

==> picture [88 x 88] intentionally omitted <==

We now offer a debt agreement (DA) and an informal arrangement (IA).

The IA offering is more automated than a DA.

During FY2020:

  1. Continue to improve our IA offering, based on client and creditor feedback;

Strategy

  1. Implement the IA offering across the entire team, with ongoing training and support;

  2. Remove circa $3m of annual cost, we are well advanced on this through automation and off-shoring; and

  3. Focus on assisting an increasing number of clients across combined DAs and now IAs:

  4. FY2017 to 2019 average 438 clients per month (100% DAs)

  5. FY2019 average 381 clients per month (100% DAs)

  6. FY2020 average to date 386 clients per month (70% DAs)

24

FSA Group Ltd AGM presentation 2019

Services (continued)

==> picture [88 x 88] intentionally omitted <==

Strategy

Based on current call volumes/spend we believe the IA offering, once points 1 and 2 are actioned, will see us assist on average 450 to 500 clients per month.

The above strategy will allow us to hold the Services PBT at historical levels.

As previously stated

We do not see the amendments as having a material impact on the number of clients we are able to assist or the long term financial performance of FSA.

Consumer Lending – Home Loans

==> picture [88 x 88] intentionally omitted <==

Currently exploring options to:

Growth Strategy

  • Enlarge our management team ;

    • Further develop our product offering; and
  • Expand our external origination and distribution channels,

in order to grow our loan pool and PBT.

Funding/RMBS

To diversify our funding and de-risk our business we plan to utilise the debt capital markets. We are exploring a $150m to $200m RMBS private bond issue.

26

FSA Group Ltd AGM presentation 2019

Consumer Lending – Personal Loans

==> picture [88 x 88] intentionally omitted <==

Growth Strategy Increasing our sales team during FY2020.

By FY2021 aiming to grow our:

Loan pool/PBT

  • Loan pool from $59m to around $100m - PBT from $5.3m to around $10.5m.

We are planning a $20m mezzanine facility to support the $75m Westpac senior facility, this will free up capital and improve ROE.

Earnings and Capital Management

==> picture [88 x 88] intentionally omitted <==

Earnings FY2020 expect earnings growth of 5% to 15%

FY2020 expect our full year dividend to be 5c per share with the Capital balance of earnings to be: - Management Re-invested to support the growing loan pools; and - Used for an on market share buyback On market share The board is of the current opinion that our shares are trading at a price buy back which represents a material discount to intrinsic value
