Result for the fourth quarter 2024

Oslo, February 3, 2025 The positive development seen in Kredinor AS during the second and third quarters continued into the fourth quarter of 2024. Total revenues, adjusted for revaluation, were higher than in Q4 2023, and the trend of increasing CMS revenues persisted, with a 16% increase compared to the same quarter the previous year. 

Total revenues for Q4 amounted to MNOK 313 (MNOK 367 in Q4 2023). The actual decline is due to a revaluation of portfolios totaling MNOK 61. 

– Swedish authorities have amended the regulations regarding tax deductions on interest for consumer loans. Our calculations indicate that this legislative change has a negative impact on our portfolios, which is why we made a substantial write-down of our portfolios in Sweden, says Kredinor CEO Rolf Eek-Johansen. 

– When we look at our actual performance in the fourth quarter, I am very pleased with the company’s development. Collection performance reached 101% in Q4, marking the fifth consecutive quarter of positive collection performance, says Eek-Johansen.

Looking ahead 

– The Q4 figures confirm that we are following our financial plan, which will return the company to profitability at a level expected for this type of business. While 2024 has shown strong progress, there is still significant work ahead before Kredinor is fully stabilized. Nevertheless, we enter 2025 as a stronger company than we were at the previous year-end, says CEO Rolf Eek-Johansen.
