MANAGEMENT COMMENTARY

“The first quarter of fiscal 2024 was highlighted by continued robust growth in our Point-of-Sale Receivable Purchase Program portfolio, which expanded 28% year-over-year and 7% sequentially, and, in turn, drove total assets to another record high of $4.3 billion,” said David Taylor, President and Chief Executive Officer, VersaBank. “The Bank continued to benefit from the significant operating leverage in our unique and efficient business-to-business digital banking model, with an 11% year-over-year increase in revenue generating a 35% year-over-year increase in net income to another quarterly record1.”

“As per our stated objective to maximize long-term profitability and return on common equity, during the first quarter the Bank began its planned strategic transition from higher yielding, higher risk-weighted loans to lower yielding, lower risk-weighted (CMHC) loans in its non-core CRE portfolio as we pursue new CRE opportunities. While this had a slight dampening effect on first quarter results, we expect that this strategic adjustment will enhance ROE and contribute to stronger growth in subsequent quarters throughout the year.”

“2024 is unfolding slightly ahead of expectations for our Point-of-Sale Receivable Purchase Program, providing continued confidence in our ability to surpass our next total asset milestone of $5 billion during the 2024 fiscal year. Notably, this is before any potential contribution from the broad launch of the RPP in the US should we receive favourable regulatory approval for our proposed US bank acquisition. As our loan book continues to grow, we will increasingly benefit from the operating leverage in our unique and efficient, business-to-business digital banking model, driving further outsized increases in profitability and return on common equity.”

HIGHLIGHTS FOR THE FIRST QUARTER OF FISCAL 2024

Consolidated

Total assets increased 22% year-over-year and 3% sequentially to a record $4.3 billion, with the increase driven primarily by 7% growth in Digital Banking Operations’ Point of Sale Receivable Purchase Program (POS/RPP) portfolio. The quarter-over-quarter increase was dampened by a transitory contraction in the non-core Commercial Real Estate (CRE) portfolio under the Bank’s strategy to transition a portion of its CRE portfolio to higher return, lower risk lending opportunities;Consolidated total revenue increased 11% year-over-year and decreased 1% sequentially to $28.9 million. The year-over-year and sequential trends reflect higher net interest from income from the Digital Banking Operations due primarily to continued strong loan growth, with the sequential trend reflecting lower contribution from DRT Cyber Inc. (“DRTC”) due to lower seasonal sales volume;Consolidated net income increased 35% year-over-year and 2% sequentially to $12.7 million. The year-over-year and quarter-over-quarter increases were primarily due to higher revenue, which was driven primarily by strong loan growth (23%) from the Digital Banking Operations, as well as a higher contribution from DRTC and lower non-interest expenses. The sequential increase was dampened slightly by the transitory contraction in the non-core CRE portfolio under the Bank’s strategy to transition a portion of its CRE portfolio to higher return, lower risk lending opportunities;Consolidated earnings per share increased 41% year-over-year and 2% sequentially to $0.48, with the year-over-year increase benefitting from the impact of a lower number of common shares outstanding from the purchase and cancellation of common shares under the Bank’s Normal Course Issuer Bid (“NCIB”) over the course of fiscal 2023;Return on common equity increased to 13.41% from 10.79% year-over-year and decreased 1% from 13.58% sequentially; and,The Bank continues to advance the process seeking approval of its proposed acquisition of OCC-chartered US bank, Stearns Bank Holdingford N.A., and expects a decision from US regulators during the second calendar quarter of 2024. If favourable, the Bank will proceed toward completion of the acquisition as soon as possible, subject to Canadian regulatory (OSFI) approval.

Digital Banking Operations

Loans increased 23% year-over-year and 3% sequentially to a record $3.98 billion, driven primarily by continued robust growth in the Bank’s POS/RPP portfolio, which increased 28% year-over-year and 7% sequentially. The sequential increase was dampened slightly by a transitory contraction in the non-core Commercial Real Estate (CRE) portfolio under the Bank’s strategy to transition a portion of its CRE portfolio to higher return, lower risk lending opportunities;Total revenue increased 10% year-over-year and increased 1% sequentially to $26.7 million, driven primarily by higher net interest income attributable substantially to loan growth;Net interest margin on loans decreased 40 bps, or 13%, year-over-year and 6 bps, or 2%, sequentially at 2.63%. The decreases were due primarily to the strong growth of the POS Financing portfolio (which is composed of lower-risk weighted, lower yielding but higher Return on Common Equity (“ROCE”) assets than the CRE portfolio, the impact of the planned transition of some higher yielding, higher risk-weighted CRE loans to lower yielding, lower risk-weighted CRE loans as part of the Bank’s strategy to capitalize on opportunities for lower-risk loans with a higher return on capital deployed, as well as higher rates on term deposits experienced during the quarter. This was offset partially by higher yields earned on the Bank’s lending assets;Net interest margin decreased 35 bps, or 12%, year-over-year and decreased 6 bps, or 2%, sequentially to 2.48%;Provision for credit losses as a percentage of average loans remained negligible at -0.01%, compared with a 12-quarter average of 0.00%, which remains among the lowest of the publicly traded Canadian Schedule I (federally licensed) Banks; and,Efficiency ratio (excluding DRTC) improved both year-over-year and sequentially to 40% from 42% and 45%, respectively.

DRTC’s Cybersecurity Services Operations (Digital Boundary Group)

Revenue for the Cybersecurity Services component of DRTC (Digital Boundary Group, or DBG) increased 24% year-over-year to $2.9 million, driven by higher service engagements, while gross profit increased 31% to $2.1 million due to improved operational efficiency. Sequentially, revenue and gross profit for DBG decreased 17% and 18%, respectively, due primarily to seasonally lower service engagements. DBG’s gross profit amounts are included in DRTC’s consolidated revenue which is reflected in non-interest income in VersaBank’s consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income. DBG remained profitable on a standalone basis within DRTC.

Published

November 14, 2024

JAKARTA, Indonesia, Nov. 14, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — This November, Belgian business management software company Odoo celebrates 1st anniversary of the Indonesian office with esteemed partners and customers like Ismaya, Pertamina Energy Terminal, DORÉ, Dekoruma, Abuba Steak, Perum Bulog and Arista Group, to name a few.

With a mission to help more businesses to become digitally organized, the software company started actively developing the Indonesian market five years ago and has reached record-breaking milestones one after another—91.2% average annual growth and a quadrupled 189 active local partners—making Indonesia the best-performing market in APAC for six consecutive years.

The now locally based Odoo Indonesia is confident in extending services and helping businesses of all sizes in the country to digitally transform business management to contribute to optimized workflow efficiency and national economic growth.

To support rapid market expansion, Odoo will base its operations in BSD as the area embodies the start-up environment the Belgian firm always strives for—vibrant & dynamic—a choice affirmed by its sustained success in digital transformation endeavors across Indonesia.

Odoo opens first SEA office in BSD.

From a squad of 3, Odoo Indonesia has expanded into an over 80-strong team. In 2024, it engaged the community at 41 events in major cities, including Medan, Bandung, Surabaya, and Makassar, and around the archipelago in Java, Sumatra, Kalimantan, and Sulawesi, providing countless on-site support. Within a year of opening, the company introduced multiple landmark integrations and regionalized upgrades.

Odoo-Xendit Integration

In October 2024, the Company delivered 25,049 vehicles, representing an increase of 92% from October 2023.

New Model Launches

On October 23, 2024, ZEEKR officially launched and commenced deliveries of the ZEEKR MIX, a five-seat, family-oriented vehicle. The ZEEKR MIX redefines the concept of an everyday driver, seamlessly combining ample space, outstanding safety, and agile handling. As the first model built on the Company’s SEA-M architecture, the ZEEKR MIX boasts up to 93% in-cabin space utilization, maximizing interior space through innovative packaging and a capsule-style exterior. Two front-row seats that can swivel 270 degrees and a movable central console enhance cabin versatility, enabling “9+N” cabin scenario modes and flexible seating arrangements.

CEO and CFO Comments

“Our performance remained strong and resilient this quarter, marked by record-high deliveries and successful new model launches,” said Mr. Andy An, ZEEKR’s chief executive officer. “In the third quarter, we set a new record with 55,003 vehicle deliveries, representing a 51% year-over-year increase, and reached an additional milestone in October with monthly deliveries of 25,049 units. Notably, the ZEEKR 7X’s deliveries exceeded 20,000 units within 50 days since its launch, marking a robust achievement in the highly competitive mainstream SUV market. As we expand our product lineup and strengthen each model’s position in its respective category, we are delivering ZEEKR’s ultimate driving experience to more users, further cementing ZEEKR’s industry leadership.”

Mr. Jing Yuan, ZEEKR’s chief financial officer, added, “Our disciplined cost control measures, coupled with ongoing optimization of product structure, economies of scale, and technological innovation, drove a 30.7% year-over-year increase in revenue. Vehicle sales for the quarter grew by 42.0% and 7.2% year-over-year and quarter-over-quarter, respectively. Meanwhile, vehicle margin remained on an upward trajectory, rising to 15.7% in the third quarter of 2024, highlighting our consistent progress in profitability enhancement. Looking ahead, we will continue to consolidate resources, strengthen product capabilities, and expand our industry presence to propel our sustainable growth.”

Financial Results for the Third Quarter of 2024

Revenues

Total revenues were RMB18,358.0 million (US$2,616.0 million) for the third quarter of 2024, representing an increase of 30.7% from RMB14,044.6 million for the third quarter of 2023 and a decrease of 8.4% from RMB20,040.1 million for the second quarter of 2024.

Revenues from vehicle sales were RMB14,401.3 million (US$2,052.2 million) for the third quarter of 2024, representing an increase of 42.0% from RMB10,143.7 million for the third quarter of 2023, and an increase of 7.2% from RMB13,438.2 million for the second quarter of 2024. The year-over-year increase was due to the increase in new product delivery volume, partially offset by the lower average selling price due to the different product mix and pricing strategy changes between the two quarters. The quarter-over-quarter increase was mainly attributable to the launch of the ZEEKR 7X new model in the third quarter of 2024 and the higher average selling price resulting from changes in product mix.

Revenues from sales of batteries and other components were RMB3,245.3 million (US$462.5 million) for the third quarter of 2024, representing a decrease of 1.3% from RMB3,288.8 million for the third quarter of 2023 and a decrease of 38.8% from RMB5,299.2 million for the second quarter of 2024. The revenues from sales of batteries and other components remained relatively stable compared with the third quarter of 2023. The quarter-over-quarter decrease was mainly driven by lower sales volume of battery packs in the domestic market.

Revenues from research and development service and other services were RMB711.4 million (US$101.4 million) for the third quarter of 2024, representing an increase of 16.2% from RMB612.1 million for the third quarter of 2023 and a decrease of 45.4% from RMB1,302.6 million for the second quarter of 2024. The year-over-year increase was mainly due to the increased sales of after-sales vehicle services. The quarter-over-quarter decrease was mainly due to the decreased sales of research and development services to related parties.

Cost of Revenues and Gross Margin

Cost of revenues was RMB15,416.2 million (US$2,196.8 million) for the third quarter of 2024, representing an increase of 31.1% from RMB11,755.2 million for the third quarter of 2023 and a decrease of 7.1% from RMB16,590.2 million for the second quarter of 2024. The year-over-year increase was mainly attributable to the increase in vehicle delivery volume and the quarter-over-quarter decrease was mainly attributable to the decrease in sales of batteries and other components.

Gross profit was RMB2,941.8 million (US$419.2 million) for the third quarter of 2024, representing an increase of 28.5% from RMB2,289.4 million for the third quarter of 2023 and a decrease of 14.7% from RMB3,449.8 million for the second quarter of 2024.

Gross margin was 16.0% for the third quarter of 2024, compared with 16.3% for the third quarter of 2023 and 17.2% for the second quarter of 2024. The gross margin remained relatively stable compared with the third quarter of 2023. The quarter-over-quarter decrease was mainly attributable to the decreased margins on batteries and other components.

Vehicle margin was 15.7% for the third quarter of 2024, compared with 18.1% for the third quarter of 2023 and 14.2% for the second quarter of 2024. The year-over-year decrease was primarily attributed to the lower average selling price of ZEEKR vehicles due to the different product mix and pricing strategy changes between the two quarters, partially offset by the procurement savings as the cost of auto parts and materials decreased. The quarter-over-quarter increase was mainly due to the change in product mix.

Operating Expenses

Research and development expenses were RMB1,966.2 million (US$280.2 million) for the third quarter of 2024, representing a decrease of 2.6% from RMB2,018.1 million for the third quarter of 2023 and a decrease of 25.1% from RMB2,623.5 million for the second quarter of 2024. Research and development expenses remained relatively stable compared with the third quarter of 2023. The quarter-over-quarter decrease was mainly due to a one-off, large quantity of share-based compensation expenses in the second quarter, conditioned on the Company’s initial public offering.

Selling, general and administrative expenses were RMB2,274.8 million (US$324.1 million) for the third quarter of 2024, representing an increase of 25.4% from RMB1,813.9 million for the third quarter of 2023 and a decrease of 12.7% from RMB2,604.7 million for the second quarter of 2024. The year-over-year increase was mainly due to increased expenses related to the expansion of offline channels in China and overseas as well as the marketing activities of the launch of new models. The quarter-over-quarter decrease was mainly due to a one-off, large quantity of share-based compensation expenses in the second quarter, conditioned on the Company’s initial public offering.

Loss from Operations

Loss from operations was RMB1,216.4 million (US$173.3 million) for the third quarter of 2024, representing a decrease of 19.3% from RMB1.507.8 million for the third quarter of 2023 and a decrease of 29.3% from RMB1,721.0 million for the second quarter of 2024.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The Company uses non-GAAP financial measures, such as non-GAAP loss from operations, non-GAAP net loss, non-GAAP net loss attributable to ordinary shareholders, non-GAAP basic and diluted net loss per ordinary share attributed to ordinary shareholders, non-GAAP basic and diluted net loss per ADS attributed to ordinary shareholders, in evaluating its operating results and for financial and operational decision-making purposes. By excluding the impact of share-based compensation expenses, the Company believes that the non-GAAP financial measures help identify underlying trends in its business and enhance the overall understanding of the Company’s past performance and future prospects. The Company also believes that the non-GAAP financial measures allow for greater visibility with respect to key metrics used by the Company’s management in its financial and operational decision-making. The non-GAAP financial measures are not presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP and may be different from non-GAAP methods of accounting and reporting used by other companies. The non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools and when assessing the Company’s operating performance, investors should not consider them in isolation, or as a substitute for net loss or other consolidated statements of comprehensive loss data prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The Company encourages investors and others to review its financial information in its entirety and not rely on a single financial measure. The Company mitigates these limitations by reconciling the non-GAAP financial measures to the most comparable U.S. GAAP performance measures, all of which should be considered when evaluating the Company’s performance.

For more information on the non-GAAP financial measures, please see the table captioned “Unaudited Reconciliations of GAAP and non-GAAP Results” set forth in this announcement.
