Ferratum Group Income Statement
Comments
■ Revenue increased by 18% to EUR 262 million in FY 2018 from FY 2017
Operating profit was recorded at EUR 37.8 million
Impairments on loans for FY 2018 amounted to EUR 88 million, increasing from EUR 76 million in
2017 both due to an increased receivables base as well as adoption of IFRS 9, resulting in changes to
the provisioning models
Despite the stringent changes in the credit loss provisioning models, operating margin stayed flat in
2018, standing at 14.4% of revenues
Following an initial slowdown of growth in H1 2018, the Group initiated a series of management
actions to improve performance, including the strengthening of top management, staff
streamlining, rebalancing of resources to prioritise enhanced risk management and the
automation of lending processes in existing markets
■ As Ferratum Group has expanded, the major cost items have increased in line with revenue
Impairments, personnel, and selling & marketing amount to 34%, 17% and 16% of revenues,
respectively and together constitute 77% of operating costs
