Key comments from Creditas’ release:

“In Q3-23, we posted revenues of R$482.3mn, a 16.3% increase compared to Q3-22 as we continue focusing on more moderate growth to become a profitable company by year end. Focusing on the financial margin and tight monitoring of credit quality are allowing us to progressively improve gross profit.”
 
“After 3 quarters of stable SELIC, Q3-23 was the first quarter with a falling interest rate, which intensified our ability to raise the Gross Profit margin, since new repriced loans based on higher Selic levels keep replacing older lowered-priced loans. Credit quality continued strong in Q3-23 with cost of credit at the lowest level since 2021.”
 
“In Q3-23 we also completed 2 transactions to strengthen our capital structure: (i) a $75mn equity convertible note with broad based support from our equity investors and (ii) a $40mn European bond.”

“As we accelerate the expansion of gross profit and continue gaining operational leverage, we are confident that we will reach profitability by the end of 2023 and continue with profitable growth in 2024.”
