+8% Total Payment Volume growth 1)

+6% Lending growth, Payment Solutions 1)
1) Refers to the second quarter 2024 in comparison with the second quarter 2023
2) Refers to unique consumers that have used Qliro's checkout through the company's merchants in the last 12 months
3) Total payment volume processed in Qliro's checkout, including VAT on direct payments and Qliro's payment products in the second quarter 2024.


Qliro continues to strengthen its market position, with clear evidence that our previous commercial efforts are yielding long-term results. Total Payment Volume increased by 8 percent and the number of connected merchants more than doubled in the quarter. The divestment of the consumer loan portfolio within Digital Banking Services improves our capital structure and enables accelerated expansion within Payment Solutions.
Total income increased by 4 percent to SEK 117.1 million, and operating profit improved by SEK 2.2 million year-on-year, to SEK 5.0 million. The Payment Solutions business segment, which reached break-even in Q1 2024, increased operating income by 8 percent to SEK 101.2 million with operating profit of SEK 0.3 million. Progress in the quarter was due to increased interest in our checkout and Pay Later products.
In the second quarter 2024 we extended the collaboration with iPiccolo and CDON, which resulted in new agreements with e-merchants Fyndiq and Make Webo. In the quarter we also signed agreements with several well-known brands such as Penstore and C'est Normal. In total, we signed agreements with over 100 new merchants in the quarter. Signed, but not yet onboarded merchants, are expected to increase total payment volume by over 20 percent. The number of connected merchants more than doubled in the quarter, contributing to the increased total payments volume of 8 percent. In addition, our pipeline of new e-merchants continued to grow. At present, we are in talks with several merchants with the potential to significantly contribute to increased total payment volume.
For some time now, we have followed a new product strategy based on Composable Payments for increased flexibility and scalability. This involves remodeling Qliro's infrastructure to include modular components that can be combined and integrated according to needs, which improves adaptability. The goal is to optimize e-merchants' ecosystems, which vary depending on the customer, sector and product, in order to offer a world-class experience. To achieve this, we need a modular platform with increased flexibility across all areas, from payment methods and supplier modules to platforms and data flows. During the fall, we look forward to a major product launch based on the new technology.
As a step towards strengthening our ecosystem, we continue to establish strategic partnerships with relevant e-commerce operators. In the last quarter, we successfully implemented several important integrations with leading e-merchant platforms and services in line with our strategy for Composable Payments. We are pleased to announce that we now collaborate with Shopify, Brink Commerce, NyEhandel and the shipping service Ingrid. In addition to payment cards, Swish, Vipps, Mobilepay and Trustly etc., we also added Apple Pay as a new payment method in the quarter. These partnerships and services enable us to offer our merchants an even more streamlined and efficient payment experience.
In the quarter, we improved our rating on Trustpilot to 3.8 of 5. In recent years, a number of new initiatives have been introduced aimed at improving the consumer experience, including new functionality that makes it easier to shop online, digitalized communication, personalized product recommendations and improved customer support. However, we are not satisfied and actively work to continue to increase customer satisfaction and exceed our customers' expectations.
After the end of the period, we announced an agreement to divest our personal loan portfolio in Digital Banking Services to Morrow Bank ASA at a premium of 2 percent on lending volumes. The transaction is in line with our strategy of focusing on Payment Solutions, and delivering the market's best experience for merchants and their customer journey. The divestment also strengthens our capital structure and enables accelerated expansion within Payment Solutions.
Over the last 24 months, Qliro has undergone a significant transformation – commercially, technically, organizationally, and financially. This transformation has had a positive impact on both income and expenses, mainly within Payment Solutions, which resulted in the business segment achieving break-even in the first and second quarter of 2024. These developments allow us to concentrate operations and focus on payment solutions that offer a significantly higher return on equity.
According to contract, the transaction is due to be completed in August 2024, which means that we will be winding down the Digital Banking Services segment from the third quarter onwards. We will continue to offer our savings products, which also constitute an important financing source for Payment Solutions. The profit effect from the transaction, after winding down Digital Banking Services, is expected to amount to SEK 0-5 million.
During the period, Qliro's CFO Robert Stambro decided to leave his position to accept new challenges outside of the company. During his five years as CFO of Qliro, Robert has played a key role in the company's success and made a significant contribution to our current market position. Mikael Rahm, former CFO of PayEx and others, has been appointed Interim CFO from July 20, 2024. The recruitment process to find a permanent replacement has started.
The second quarter saw commercial progress and new strategic advances in line with our vision. Looking ahead, we eagerly anticipate the launch in Norway and foresee increased growth through the onboarding of a large number of new merchants in the second half of the year. Given the focus on capitalizing on our positive commercial momentum, we plan to intensify the expansion, which will impact operating profit in the short term. However, we are convinced that this is the right opportunity to increase the pace towards creating long-term growth and profitability.
To conclude, I would like to extend my heartfelt thanks to our merchants, consumers, employees and collaboration partners, who all contribute to Qliro's success in different ways. I wish you all a great summer.
Stockholm, Sweden, July 17, 2024
Christoffer Rutgersson, CEO, Qliro
Founded in 2014, Qliro is a fintech company that provides online payment solutions to leading e-merchants and their consumers. The offering includes a complete checkout solution optimized for increased sales and profitability. The operations are divided into two complementary business segments: Payment Solutions and Digital Banking Services, where the latter is being wound down after the company signed an agreement relating to the divestment of the personal loan portfolio.
Qliro provides all relevant payment methods and follows the e-merchants on their international expansion journey. Qliro focuses primarily on e-merchants based in the Nordic region where Qliro also offers its own payment methods to consumers: invoicing, part payment and direct payment. Qliro also offers other digital financial services to individuals in Sweden, such as savings accounts and personal loans.
Qliro is a credit market company under the supervision of the Swedish Financial Supervisory Authority. Qliro's registered office is located in Stockholm, Sweden. Qliro's shares are listed on Nasdaq Stockholm under the ticker "Qliro".
Payment Solutions are offered to e-merchants in the Nordics. The payment solutions include Qliro's Pay Later and Pay Now products for consumers when they buy goods and services online. The offering included in Pay Later comprises invoices, buy-now-pay-later (BNPL) products and various types of part payments. Qliro's payment solution Pay Now includes a range of payment methods offered through partnerships, such as card payments, direct bank transfers, Swish, Apple Pay, Vipps, Mobilpay, iDeal and Paypal. Qliro has the capacity to handle payments on more than 30 markets and the checkout solution is available in eight languages.
The number of unique consumers that used Qliro's checkout through the company's merchants in the last 12 months was 5.7 million.
Qliro's income is mainly generated through interest and fees associated with Pay Later products. The average credit is low and the maturity is short.
Digital Banking Services comprise the services offered on Qliro's digital platforms in addition to the payment products from Payment Solutions. The business area is being wound down after Qliro signed an agreement with Morrow Bank on July 4 relating to the divestment of the company's personal loan portfolio. The transaction is due to be completed in August 2024.

4) When preparing the Annual Report, it was noted that volumes of lending to the public had been incorrectly allocated between two segments since Q2 2023. This related to a total amount of SEK 13.5 million. As the change only represents an adjustment between segments, the amount has been adjusted in the Annual Report but no correction has been made to previously published quarterly reports as the difference is not material and only affects KPIs in the segments marginally.
Total operating income increased by 4 percent to SEK 117.1 million (112.6). The increase was driven by growing interest in Qliro's payment products and increased lending to the public.
Net interest income decreased by 4 percent to SEK 65.7 million (68.1), where interest income increased to SEK 98.3 million (91.3) and interest expenses to SEK -32.6 million (-23.2). Interest income increased due to growing interest in the company's BNPL products. Interest expenses increased as a result of higher funding costs on the market.
Net commission income increased by 13 percent to SEK 50.5 million (44.5), 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 -0.1 million (–0.2).
Operating expenses remained essentially unchanged, amounting to SEK -82.4 million (-82.5).
General administrative expenses, comprising consultancy and IT expenses, increased to -60.4 million (–57.9), mainly due to increased personnel and licensing costs.
Other operating expenses decreased to SEK –4.7 million (–7.0) due to VAT correction and lower marketing costs.
Depreciation, amortization and impairment fell by 2 percent to SEK -17.3 million (-17.6) and primarily related to amortization of previously capitalized development expenses for e-merchant payment solutions, as well as consumer products, website and app solutions.
Net credit losses amounted to SEK –29.7 million (–27.3) 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 and an improved lending process.
Operating profit amounted to SEK 5.0 million (2.8), driven by increased income, primarily in Payment Solutions.
Income tax expense for the period of SEK -1.7 million in relation to operating profit of SEK 5.0 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 (0.8).
Total operating income increased by 6 percent to SEK 233.0 million (219.5). The increase was driven by growing interest in Qliro's payment products and increased lending to the public.
Net interest income decreased by 1 percent to SEK 131.0 million (131.8), where interest income increased to SEK 194.7 million (174.0) and interest expenses to SEK -63.7 million (-42.3). Interest income increased as a result of growing 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 14 percent to SEK 101.3 million (89.1), 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 -0.5 million (–1.6).
Operating expenses decreased to SEK -161.9 million (-162.5). General administrative expenses, comprising consultancy and IT expenses, increased to -116.2 million (–114.5), mainly due to higher licensing and personnel costs.
Other operating expenses decreased to SEK –11.3 million (–12.5) due to VAT correction and lower marketing costs. Depreciation, amortization and impairment fell by 3 percent to SEK -34.4 million (-35.5) and primarily related to amortization of previously capitalized development expenses for e-merchant payment solutions, as well as consumer products, website and app solutions.
Net credit losses amounted to SEK –60.8 million (–53.1) 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 first half-year, the company reduced its loss provisions by SEK 2.3 million in accordance with IFRS 9 as a result of the improved macroeconomic outlook.
Operating profit amounted to SEK 10.3 million (3.9) 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 3.4 million in the first half-year.
Income tax expense for the period of SEK -3.5 million in relation to operating profit of SEK 10.3 million, was due to interest on subordinated debt of SEK 5.4 million not being tax-deductible, which had a tax impact of SEK 1.1 million. Profit/loss for the period amounted to SEK 6.8 million (1.9).
Comparisons with the second quarter 2023 unless otherwise indicated.
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 total payment volumes increase, which gradually drives growth in the loan portfolio and generates interest 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 payment, direct bank transfer, mobile payment through Swish, Apple Pay, Vipps and Mobilpay, and payment via PayPal and iDeal.
At the end of the second quarter, the number of connected e-merchants on Qliro's platform was 139 (65), an increase of 114 percent year-on-year.
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.
Unified Payments supports Apple Pay since the second quarter of 2024, as well as card payments, Swish, Trustly and MobilePay and all Nordic currencies. At the end of the quarter, over 30 percent of Pay Now volumes were processed in Unified Payments.

1) Key figures from the previous year have been recalculated, see Note 1, p.18.
2) When preparing the Annual Report, it was noted that volumes of lending to the public had been incorrectly allocated between two segments since Q2 2023.

Payment Solutions' operating income increased by 8 percent to SEK 101.2 million (93.6) following growing interest in Qliro's flexible payment products. Net interest income increased by 2 percent to SEK 50.1 million (49.1). Net commission income increased by 13 percent to SEK 50.2 million (44.3) driven by higher total payment volume. Credit losses amounted to SEK –24.4 million (–20.1) due to a changed product and customer mix. For Pay Later volumes, credit losses amounted to 1.8 percent (1.3), in line with the trend in the previous two quarters.

The loan book grew by 6 percent during the quarter to SEK 1,767 million.
Comparisons with the second quarter 2023 unless otherwise indicated.
Within Digital Banking Services, Qliro offers personal loans and savings accounts to individuals. Qliro's app makes it easy to manage payments, loans and savings.
On July 4, 2024, Qliro signed an agreement relating to the divestment of the company's personal loan portfolio. According to contract, the transaction is due to be completed in August 2024, when Digital Banking Services will be wound down as a business segment. The company's savings products will remain part of Qliro's product offering after the transaction.
Lending in the business segment decreased by 9 percent to SEK 740 million (816) while net interest income decreased by 17 percent to SEK 15.6 million (18.9). This was due to less intensive marketing of the business segment's digital banking services. The income margin decreased to 8.5 percent (9.1) in the quarter.
Credit losses were SEK -5.3 million (-7.2) in the quarter, a decrease of 27 percent year-on-year as a result of reduced inflow of new loan volumes and an improved lending process. Credit losses in relation to average lending amounted to 2.8 percent (3.5), a reduction of 19 percent year-on-year.

Qliro AB's own funds (see Note 9 Capital adequacy) increased to SEK 471 million (423). 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 slightly to SEK 2,375 million (2,324) due to marginally lower lending in year-onyear terms.
Qliro is well-capitalized and the total capital ratio was 19.8 percent (18.2), compared with the regulatory requirement of 13.7 percent, and the Common Equity Tier 1 capital ratio was 15.6 percent (13.9), compared with the regulatory requirement of 9.6 percent.
Qliro's leverage ratio was 11.7 percent.
In addition to equity, lending to the public was funded by SEK 2,709 million (2,772) 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 2,353 million (2,230) and deposits in Germany to SEK 356 million (543).
Qliro has solid liquidity and as of June 30, 2024 Qliro's cash and cash equivalents amounted to SEK 550 million (686).
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.
The Liquidity Coverage Ratio (LCR) as of June 30, 2024 was 223 percent, compared with the legal requirement of 100 percent.
The net stable funding ratio (NSFR) was 126 percent.

The average number of employees was 218 in the second quarter 2024.
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.

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 for Qliro AB covers the period January 1 to June 30, 2024. Qliro's registered office is in Stockholm and the corporate ID no. is 556962-2441.
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.
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:
