Loan Portfolio of $4.79 billion, up 24% from $3.85 billion
Net Charge Off Rate of 8.9%, down 20 bps from 9.1%
MISSISSAUGA, ON, May 7, 2025 /CNW/ - goeasy Ltd. (TSX: GSY), (" goeasy" or the " Company"), one of Canada's leading consumer lenders focused on delivering a full suite of financial services to Canadians with non-prime credit, today reported results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2025.
First Quarter Results
During the quarter, the Company generated $677 million in loan originations, down 1% compared to $686 million produced in the first quarter of 2024. The loan originations were driven by continued strength in the volume of applications for credit, which were up 10% over the prior year. The Company experienced strong performance across several product and acquisition channels, including home equity lending, point-of-sale and automotive financing.
Loan originations during the quarter led to growth in the loan portfolio of $190 million, above the Company's forecasted range of between $160 million and $185 million. At quarter end, the consumer loan portfolio was $4.79 billion, up 24% from $3.85 billion in the first quarter of 2024. The growth in consumer loans led to an increase in revenue to $392 million, up 10% from $357 million in the first quarter of last year. Interest income increased year over year by $36 million or 14%.
During the quarter, the Company continued to experience stable credit and payment performance. The annualized net charge off rate was 8.9%, down 20 bps from 9.1% in the first quarter of 2024, and within the Company's forecasted range of between 8.75% and 9.75% for the quarter. The Company's allowance for future credit losses increased to 7.86%, compared to 7.61% in the fourth quarter of 2024, due to weaker macroeconomic performance and unfavourable changes in forward looking macroeconomic indicators produced by Moody's Analytics.
Operating income for the first quarter of 2025 was $145 million, up 5% from $138 million in the first quarter of 2024. Operating margin for the first quarter was 37.0%, down slightly from 38.6% in the same period last year. After adjusting for unusual and non-recurring items, the Company reported adjusted operating income 2 of $148 million, an increase of 3% compared to $144 million in the first quarter of 2024. Adjusted operating margin 1 for the first quarter was 37.9%, down from 40.2% in the same period in 2024. The efficiency ratio 1 for the first quarter of 2025 was 26.1%, an improvement of 130 bps from 27.4% in the first quarter of 2024, reflecting an increase in operating leverage.
Net income in the first quarter was $39.4 million, down from $58.9 million in the same period of 2024, which resulted in diluted earnings per share of $2.32, down from the $3.40 reported in the first quarter of 2024. After adjustments related primarily to the non-cash fair value change on prepayment options related to notes payable, adjusted net income 2 was $60.0 million, down 9% from $66.3 million in the first quarter of 2024, primarily due to a decline in total yield on consumer loans (including ancillary products) as well as the increase in allowance for future credit losses as a result of weaker macroeconomic performance and unfavourable changes in forward looking macroeconomic indicators. Adjusted diluted earnings per share 1 was $3.53, down 8% from $3.83 in the first quarter of 2024. Return on equity during the quarter was 13.4%, compared to 21.9% in the first quarter of 2024. Adjusted return on equity 1 was 20.4% in the quarter, compared to 24.6% in the same period of 2024.
"During the quarter we were proud to serve 43,500 new customers, while producing $190 million in portfolio growth, highlighting the critical role we play in providing everyday Canadians access to credit," said David Ingram, goeasy's Executive Chairman, "Our results continued to demonstrate the resilience of our business model during periods of macroeconomic uncertainty. We also bolstered our balance sheet and liquidity, with $565 million of new capital, lifting our funding capacity to $2.0 billion to support our organic growth plans. With the increased level of liquidity and conservative leverage profile, we also repurchased approximately $96 million in shares during and subsequent to quarter-end," Mr. Ingram continued, "While the total yield in the quarter was at the lower end of our forecasted range, we are addressing through product, pricing and collections optimization efforts and remain on track to achieving all of our forecasted metrics for 2025."

Balance Sheet and Liquidity
Total assets were $5.33 billion as of March 31, 2025, an increase of 21% from $4.42 billion as of March 31, 2024, primarily driven by growth in the consumer loan portfolio.
Subsequent to quarter-end, the Company issued US$400 million aggregate principal amount of senior unsecured notes due 2030 (the " Notes"). In connection with the offering, the Company entered into a currency swap agreement (the " Currency Swap") to reduce the Canadian dollar equivalent cost of borrowing on the Notes to 6.03% per annum. Before giving effect to the Currency Swap, the coupon on the Notes is 7.375% per annum. The Company used the net proceeds from the sale of the Notes to partially repay indebtedness under its secured facilities and for general corporate purposes.
Free cash flow from operations before net growth in gross consumer loans receivable 2 in the quarter was $31 million compared to $77 million in the first quarter of 2024. Based on the cash on hand at the end of the quarter and the borrowing capacity under the Company's existing revolving credit facilities, including the aforementioned Notes offering completed following the quarter, the Company has approximately $2.0 billion in total funding capacity as of May 1, 2025 and a debt to adjusted tangible equity ratio of 3.53x as of March 31, 2025. The Company remains confident that the capacity available under its existing funding facilities, and its ability to raise additional debt financing, is sufficient to fund its organic growth forecast.
At quarter-end, the Company's weighted average cost of borrowing was 6.8%, and the fully drawn weighted average cost of borrowing was 6.3%. The Company estimates that it could currently grow the consumer loan portfolio by approximately $300 million per year solely from internal cash flows, without utilizing external debt. The Company also estimates that once its existing and available sources of debt are fully utilized, it could continue to grow the loan portfolio by approximately $500 million per year solely from internal cash flows.
Dividend
The Board of Directors has approved a quarterly dividend of $1.46 per share payable on July 11, 2025 to the holders of common shares of record as at the close of business on June 27, 2025.
