FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

MEDALLION FINANCIAL CORP. REPORTS 2023 FIRST QUARTER RESULTS

NEW YORK, NY – May 1, 2023 – Medallion Financial Corp. (NASDAQ: MFIN, “Medallion” or the “Company”), a specialty finance company that originates and services loans in various consumer and commercial industries, along with offering loan origination services to fintech strategic partners, announced today its results for the quarter ended March 31, 2023.

2023 First Quarter Highlights

 

   

Net income was $15.4 million, or $0.67 per share, compared to $9.8 million, or $0.39 per share, in the prior year quarter.

 

   

$13.2 million of cash collected on medallion-related assets. Medallion recoveries resulted in earnings of $0.28 per share.

 

   

Net interest income grew 21% to $43.6 million from $35.9 million in the prior year quarter.

 

   

Net interest margin on net loans was 8.71%, compared to 9.20% in the prior year quarter, and on gross loans it was 8.42%, compared to 8.91% in the prior year quarter.

 

   

Loan originations were $227.3 million, compared to $213.7 million in the prior year quarter.

 

   

The credit loss provision increased to $4.0 million from $3.2 million in the prior year quarter.

Executive Commentary – Andrew Murstein, President of Medallion

“We are very pleased with our first quarter results which reflects one of our best quarters since our IPO in 1996. Despite the current interest rate environment, the growth in our consumer loan portfolio was enough to counteract our rising cost of funds, allowing us to grow our net interest income year-over-year and maintain it sequentially from the fourth quarter. Our earnings per share of $0.67 included $0.28 specific to medallion loan recoveries, tied to the more than $13 million of cash collected during the three months. While recent collection activity has been good the past several quarters and our team has done a great job, we reiterate collections and recoveries are expected to fluctuate for the foreseeable future. We are happy with the more than $200 million of loan originations during the quarter, which helped our total assets grow 20% year-over-year.”

Current Expected Credit Loss (CECL) Adoption

On January 1, 2023, the Company adopted the Current Expected Credit Loss accounting standard (Topic 326), otherwise known as CECL. Our calculation of the CECL transition amount on that date was an $11.6 million increase in our allowance for credit losses for consumer loans and a $2.2 million increase with respect to our commercial loans. As all medallion loans have specific reserves, the medallion loan allowance was not affected. With the adoption of CECL, our provisions for credit losses during the first quarter reflect an earlier recognition of credit losses than under the incurred loss accounting standard.
