Insights

Collections and ERC expansion drove materially stronger operating cashflows and portfolio scale in Q3 2025.

The company grew total collections 63% to $236.8 million and increased Estimated Remaining Collections to $2,929.6 million, demonstrating larger portfolio base and front‑loaded cash conversion from purchased receivables. Deployments rose 22% to $151.0 million, including the Conn’s contribution of $49.7 million of collections and $178.6 million of ERC in the U.S., which shows the firm is converting acquired assets into cash at scale.

Risks and dependencies include successful closing and integration of the Bluestem portfolio expected in the fourth quarter of 2025 and maintaining liquidation performance as purchasing increases; both affect future collections and ERC realization. Watch the Bluestem closing timing and the next quarterly collection and ERC disclosures over the following twelve months for evidence that incremental deployments sustain cash conversion trends.

Improved leverage, larger undrawn facility and a dividend signal stronger liquidity and capital flexibility.

Leverage improved to 1.59% versus 2.52% year ago and the Revolving Credit Facility was upsized to $1 billion post quarter end with reduced pricing and extended maturity to October 27, 2030, which together lower funding cost and increase optionality. The company reported pre‑tax income of $45.5 million, net income of $38.4 million, EPS of $0.59 and adjusted EPS of $0.74, supporting a declared quarterly cash dividend of $0.24 payable on December 4, 2025.

Key items to monitor are the effect of higher operating expenses, which rose by 59.5% primarily from legal/channel costs and stock‑based compensation, and the realization of $316.4 million of locked‑in deployments through forward flows. Near term, track quarterly operating expense volatility, collections versus ERC conversion over the next two quarters, and the Bluestem transaction close in Q4 2025 as concrete catalysts for liquidity and earnings sustainability.

Collections Grow 63% to $236.8 Million and Deployments Grow 22% to $151.0 Million
Pre-tax Income up 16% to $45.5 Million with Net Income of $38.4 Million and EPS of $0.59
Adjusted Pre-tax Income up 30% to $54.8 Million with Adjusted Net Income of $47.7 Million and Adjusted EPS of $0.74
Board of Directors Declares Quarterly Cash Dividend of $0.24 per Share

MINNEAPOLIS, Nov. 13, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Jefferson Capital, Inc. (“Jefferson Capital”), a leading analytically driven purchaser and manager of charged-off, insolvency and active consumer accounts, today announced its third quarter 2025 financial results.

“We delivered strong third quarter results with significant momentum in all key aspects of the business,” said David Burton, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “We continue to execute well on our differentiated strategy and are well positioned to drive shareholder value in the near and long term.”

“We delivered the largest third quarter deployments in the company’s history, up 22% year-over-year and, previously disclosed, we signed another strategic portfolio purchase of a sizable dislocated credit card portfolio from Bluestem Brands to follow up on the Conn’s portfolio purchase from last year.”

“The investment environment remains favorable with elevated levels of consumer credit delinquencies, charge-offs and insolvencies to drive portfolio supply and low unemployment to support liquidation rates. We further improved our leading position in the market by upsizing our revolving credit facility to $1 billion in commitments while also improving pricing and enhancing terms.”

Recent Developments
On October 24, 2025, Jefferson Capital entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement with affiliates of Bluestem Brands (“Bluestem”) to acquire an active credit card receivables portfolio for which new draws have been suspended for a gross purchase price of $302.8 million:

  • The gross purchase price is subject to customary adjustments for interim cash flows (including collections and new purchases) between June 30, 2025 (the “Cut Off Date”) and closing and a $20.0 million escrow to secure implementation obligations
  • At the Cut Off Date, the receivables being acquired had an aggregate face value of $488.2 million
  • The closing of the transaction is expected in the fourth quarter of 2025

On October 27, 2025 Jefferson Capital completed an amendment of its RCF achieving a number of important funding structure objectives:

  • Increased commitments by $175 million to an aggregate amount of $1 billion
  • Extended maturity to October 27, 2030
  • Reduced pricing by 50 bps across the pricing grid, eliminated any credit spread adjustments and removed the SOFR floor
  • Reduced the non-use fee rate for unutilized commitments by 5 bps
  • Implemented a handful of ‘housekeeping’ borrower-friendly changes to reflect public company status

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This press release contains references to non-GAAP financial measures, including Leverage, Adjusted Pre-Tax Income, Adjusted Net Income, and Adjusted EPS, which are financial measures that are not prepared in conformity with United States generally accepted accounting principles (U.S. GAAP). These non-GAAP measures are used by management as a supplemental measure, have certain limitations, and should not be construed as alternatives to financial measures determined in accordance with GAAP. Our management believes Leverage, Adjusted Pre-Tax Income, Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted EPS help us provide enhanced period-to-period comparability of operations and financial performance and are useful to investors as other companies in our industry report similar financial measures. The non-GAAP measures as defined by us may not be comparable to similar non-GAAP financial measures presented by other companies, which could limit such measures’ usefulness as comparative measures. Our presentation of such measures, which may include adjustments to exclude unusual or non-recurring items, should not be construed as an inference that our future results will be unaffected by other unusual or non-recurring items. Detailed reconciliations of non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are included in the financial tables following this release.
