Portfolio Recovery Associates Reports Second Quarter 2012 Results

NORFOLK, Va., Aug. 1, 2012 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Portfolio Recovery Associates, Inc. (Nasdaq:PRAA), a specialized financial and business services company and market leader in the consumer debt purchase and collection industry, today reported its second quarter 2012 results.

Second Quarter Highlights

Cash collections of $232 million, up 32% from the second quarter of 2011.
Revenue of $148 million, up 29% from the year-earlier quarter.
Net income of $32 million, an increase of 25% over the second quarter of 2011.
Diluted EPS of $1.87, compared with $1.48 in the second quarter of 2011.
Annualized return on average equity of 20.3%.
Domestic portfolio purchases of $123 million, up 37% over the year-earlier quarter.

Net income for the first six months of 2012 was $57.5 million, or $3.34 per diluted share, compared with $48.7 million, or $2.83 per diluted share, for the first six months of 2011. Year-to-date 2012 revenues were $288.0 million, compared with $226.6 million for the first six months of 2011.

"Today, PRA reported a record quarter for cash collections, revenue and net income, in addition to a record quarter of portfolio acquisitions," said Steve Fredrickson, chairman, president and chief executive officer. "I am particularly pleased with our ROE this quarter in excess of 20%, achieving the benchmark that we set as a long-term goal.

"It is important to note that we achieved these record results while making planned increases in court costs for legal collections from those who can, but won't pay back their debt. This renewed focus resulted in legal cash collections increasing 54% over second quarter 2011, exceeding our expectations," said Fredrickson.

"Our account representatives, working with customers to pay down their debt, also successfully negotiated more than two million U.S. payments in a single quarter for the first time in the Company's history," Fredrickson said.

"Income from our fee-for-service businesses increased 6% over the second quarter of 2011, due in part to income generated in the UK. We continue to focus on sales strategies for our domestic fee-for-service businesses, in an effort to improve their profitability," Fredrickson said.

The Company repurchased approximately 301,000 shares of stock in the second quarter. Through June 30, 2012, the Company has invested a total of $22.7 million under a $100 million repurchase program. "We continue to monitor market conditions to administer the remaining $77 million," Fredrickson said.

FINANCIAL AND OPERATING REVIEW – SECOND QUARTER

Revenues

Revenues were $147.9 million for the quarter, up 29% when compared with the same period a year ago. This was driven by cash receipts of $247.7 million in the second quarter, up 30% from $190.8 million a year earlier. The Company defines cash receipts as the total of cash collections and fee income.

Finance Receivable Income

Finance receivable income is driven by cash collections from finance receivables, which increased 32% to $232.4 million in the second quarter of 2012, from $176.3 million in the year-ago period. All sources of cash collections increased over the year-earlier quarter, including legal, which advanced 54%, and purchased bankruptcy account collections, which increased 35%. Legal collections are expected to increase further, due in part to the Company's expanded focus on collections from those who can, but won't, pay back their debt. The table below displays cash collections by source, by quarter for the past five quarters:


Cash Collection Source ($ in thousands)	Q2 2012	Q1 2012	Q4 2011	Q3 2011	Q2 2011
Call Center & Other Collections	$ 73,582	$ 79,805	$ 61,227	$ 63,967	$ 64,566
External Legal Collections	41,464	34,852	26,316	27,245	27,329
Internal Legal Collections	25,361	23,345	17,615	16,444	16,007
Purchased Bankruptcy Collections	92,018	79,994	75,166	74,512	68,379
Total Cash Collections	$ 232,425	$ 217,996	$ 180,324	$ 182,168	$ 176,281

During the quarter, the Company applied 42.0% of cash collections against the carrying value of its debt portfolios, compared with 41.8% in the year-earlier quarter. Additionally, the Company recorded $2.2 million in net allowance charges against certain pools of finance receivables accounts, further reducing the carrying value of its debt portfolios. Net allowance charges in the second quarter of 2011 were $2.3 million.
Cash collections produced income on finance receivables of $132.6 million in the second quarter of 2012, net of allowance charges of $2.2 million. Income on finance receivables, net of allowance charges, increased 32% over the second quarter of 2011.

Fee Income

The Company's fee-for-service businesses generated revenue of $15.3 million in the second quarter of 2012, compared with $14.5 million in the same period a year ago. The addition of fee income this quarter from our UK business more than offset declines in revenue from the Company's domestic fee-for-service businesses. Together, the fee-for-service businesses accounted for 10% of the Company's overall revenues in the second quarter of 2012, compared with 13% in the year-earlier quarter.

Operating Expenses and Income

Operating expenses were $93.3 million in the second quarter of 2012, up $22.9 million or 32% from the year-earlier quarter. Operating expenses were impacted by an increase of $8.3 million in legal costs related to the Company's expanded focus on legal collections. Operating expenses were also impacted by a $7.7 million increase in compensation and employee services expense, as well as other expense increases related primarily to growth in collections activities.
Operating income was $54.6 million in the second quarter of 2012, compared with $45.5 million in the second quarter of 2011, representing an increase of 20%. The operating margin decreased from 39.7% in the year-earlier quarter to 36.9% in the second quarter 2012. The decrease is attributed in large part to the increased legal collection expenses associated with the Company's longer-term focus on driving additional collections from the legal channel.

Balance Sheet

The Company purchased $1.48 billion of domestic portfolio face-value finance receivables during the second quarter of 2012 for $123.0 million. These receivables were acquired in 105 defaulted debt portfolios from 12 different sellers.
Cash balances were $42.6 million as of June 30, 2012.
As of June 30, 2012, the balance on the Company's line of credit was $292 million, with remaining borrowing availability, subject to normal borrowing and collateral provisions, under the line of $166.5 million.
During the second quarter, the Company repurchased 300,849 shares of common stock at an average purchase price of $68.62. Repurchases depend on prevailing market conditions and other factors. The repurchase program may be suspended or discontinued at any time.
