Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

1. Organization and Business:

Nature of operations: As used herein, the terms "PRA Group," the "Company," or similar terms refer to PRA Group, Inc. and its subsidiaries.

PRA Group, Inc., a Delaware corporation, is a global financial and business services company with operations in the Americas, Europe and Australia. The Company's primary business is the purchase, collection and management of portfolios of nonperforming loans. The Company also provides fee-based services on class action claims recoveries in the United States ("U.S.").

Basis of presentation: The Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company are prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). The accompanying interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions for Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, and therefore, do not include all information and Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements necessary for a complete presentation of financial position, results of operations, comprehensive income/(loss) and cash flows in conformity with GAAP. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal and recurring items, necessary for the fair presentation of the Company's Consolidated Balance Sheets as of March 31, 2024, and the Consolidated Income Statements, Statements of Comprehensive Income, Statements of Changes in Equity and Statements of Cash Flows for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, have been included. The Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of PRA Group and other entities in which the Company has a controlling interest. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

These unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the audited Consolidated Financial Statements and notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 (the "2023 Form 10-K"). For further discussion of the Company's significant accounting policies, refer to Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the 2023 Form 10-K. There were no material changes to these policies during the three months ended March 31, 2024.

The preparation of the Consolidated Financial Statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts and disclosures. Realized results could differ from those estimates and assumptions, and the Company's Consolidated Income Statements for the three months ended March 31, 2024 may not be indicative of future results.

Reclassification of prior year presentation: Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified for consistency with the current period presentation. In the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows, changes in Accrued expenses, Accounts payable and Other liabilities are now presented as a single line-item within Changes in operating assets and liabilities.

Changes in expected recoveries for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 were as follows (amounts in thousands):

	Three Months Ended March 31, 2024
	Core		Insolvency		Total
Changes in expected future recoveries	$	15,646	$	190	$	15,836
Recoveries received in excess of forecast	33,919		1,919		35,838
Changes in expected recoveries	$	49,565	$	2,109	$	51,674

	Three Months Ended March 31, 2023
	Core		Insolvency		Total
Changes in expected future recoveries	$	(41,414)	$	664	$	(40,750)
Recoveries received in excess of forecast	286		3,552		3,838
Changes in expected recoveries	$	(41,128)	$	4,216	$	(36,912)

In order to estimate future cash collections, the Company considers factors such as historical collections performance and its view of economic conditions and consumer habits in the various geographies in which the Company operates. Based on these considerations, adjustments to estimated remaining collections ("ERC") may incorporate changes in both the amounts and the timing of expected cash collections over the forecast period.

Changes in expected recoveries for the three months ended March 31, 2024 were $51.7 million. This was primarily due to $35.8 million in recoveries received in excess of forecast (cash collections overperformance), due largely to collections performance in the U.S., driven by the impact of the Company's cash-generating initiatives and supplemented by tax refund seasonality, as well as collections performance in Brazil and Europe. The changes in expected future recoveries of $15.8 million reflect the Company's assessment of certain pools in Europe, Brazil and the U.S., resulting in increases to the expected cash flows.

PRA Group, Inc.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

Changes in expected recoveries for the three months ended March 31, 2023 were a net negative $36.9 million. This included $3.8 million in recoveries received in excess of forecast (cash collections overperformance) and a $40.8 million negative adjustment to changes in expected future recoveries. Overperformance decreased by $19.8 million as a result of reduced cash collections primarily in the U.S. due to a slower tax season. The changes in expected future recoveries reflected the Company's assessment of certain pools resulting in a reduction of expected cash flows as a result of slowing collection performance in the U.S. call centers resulting from weak economic conditions.

7. Fair Value:

As defined by ASC Topic 820, "Fair Value Measurement and Disclosures" ("ASC 820"), fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. ASC 820 requires the consideration of different input levels in the determination of fair value, as follows:

•Level 1: Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities.

•Level 2: Observable inputs other than Level 1 quoted prices, such as quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, and model-based valuation techniques for which all significant assumptions are observable in the market.

•Level 3: Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity. Level 3 assets and liabilities include financial instruments whose value is determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies, or similar techniques, as well as instruments for which the determination of fair value requires significant management judgment or estimation.

The level in the fair value hierarchy within which a fair value measurement in its entirety falls is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety.

Financial Instruments Not Carried at Fair Value

As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the carrying amounts and estimated fair values of financial instruments not carried at fair value were as follows (amounts in thousands):

	March 31, 2024				December 31, 2023
	Carrying Amount		Estimated Fair Value		Carrying Amount		Estimated Fair Value
Financial assets:
Cash and cash equivalents	$	108,100	$	108,100	$	112,528	$	112,528
Finance receivables, net	3,650,195		3,172,948		3,656,598		3,167,798

Senior Notes (1)	1,046,000		988,926		1,046,000		964,907

(1)Carrying amounts and estimated fair values do not include debt issuance costs.

The Company uses the following methods and assumptions to estimate the fair value of the above financial instruments:

Cash equivalents: Carrying amount approximates fair value due to the short-term nature of the instruments and the observable quoted prices for identical assets in active markets. Accordingly, the Company uses Level 1 inputs.

Finance receivables, net: The Company estimates the fair value of these receivables using proprietary pricing models that the Company utilizes to make portfolio acquisition decisions. Accordingly, the Company's fair value estimates use Level 3 inputs as there is little observable market data available and management is required to use significant judgment in its estimates.

Interest-bearing deposits: Carrying amount approximates fair value due to the short-term nature of the deposits and the observable quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets. Accordingly, the Company uses Level 2 inputs for its fair value estimates.

Revolving lines of credit: Carrying amount approximates fair value due to the short-term nature of the interest rate periods and the observable quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets. Accordingly, the Company uses Level 2 inputs for its fair value estimate.

Term loan: Carrying amount approximates fair value due to the short-term nature of the interest rate periods and the observable quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets. Accordingly, the Company uses Level 2 inputs for its fair value estimate.

Senior Notes: Fair value estimates for the Senior Notes incorporate quoted market prices obtained from secondary market broker quotes, which were derived from a variety of inputs, including client orders, information from their pricing vendors, modeling software and actual trading prices when they occur. Accordingly, the Company uses Level 2 inputs for its fair value estimates.

The Company uses the following methods and assumptions to estimate the fair value of the above financial instruments:

Government securities: Fair value of the Company's investments in government securities is estimated using quoted market prices. Accordingly, the Company uses Level 1 inputs.

Derivative contracts: Fair value of derivative contracts is estimated using industry standard valuation models. These models project future cash flows and discount the future amounts to present value using market-based observable inputs, including interest rate curves and other factors. Accordingly, the Company uses Level 2 inputs for its fair value estimates.

9. Earnings per Share:

Basic earnings per share ("EPS") are computed by dividing net income available to common stockholders of PRA Group, Inc. by weighted average common shares outstanding. Diluted EPS are computed using the same components as basic EPS, with the denominator adjusted for nonvested share awards, if dilutive. Share-based awards that are contingent upon the attainment of performance goals are included in the computation of diluted EPS if the effect is dilutive. The dilutive effect of nonvested shares is computed using the treasury stock method, which assumes any proceeds that could be obtained upon the vesting of nonvested shares would be used to purchase common shares at the average market price for the period.

The following table provides a reconciliation between the computation of basic and diluted EPS for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 (amounts in thousands, except per share amounts):

	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2024					2023

10. Commitments and Contingencies:

Forward Flow Agreements:

The Company enters into forward flow agreements for the purchase of nonperforming loans. These agreements typically have terms ranging from six to 12 months, or they can be open-ended, and establish purchase prices and specific criteria for the accounts to be purchased. Some of the agreements establish a volume reference for the contract term in the form of a target or maximum, however, very few agreements establish a minimum contractual obligation, and many of the contracts contain early termination provisions allowing either party to cancel the agreements in accordance with a specified notice period. The amounts purchased are also dependent on actual delivery by the sellers, and while purchases under these agreements comprise a significant portion of the Company's overall purchases, as of March 31, 2024, the minimum purchase obligation under these forward flow agreements was not significant.

Litigation and Regulatory Matters:

The Company and its subsidiaries are from time-to-time subject to a variety of legal and regulatory claims, inquiries and proceedings and regulatory matters, most of which are incidental to the ordinary course of its business. The Company initiates lawsuits against customers and is occasionally countersued by them in such actions. Also, customers, either individually, as members of a class action, or through a governmental entity on behalf of customers, may initiate litigation against the Company in which they allege that the Company has violated a law in the process of collecting on an account. From time-to-time, other types of lawsuits are brought against the Company. Additionally, the Company receives subpoenas and other requests or demands for information from regulators or governmental authorities who are investigating the Company's debt collection activities.

The Company accrues for potential liability arising from legal proceedings and regulatory matters when it is probable that such liability has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. This determination is based upon currently available information for those proceedings in which the Company is involved, taking into account the Company's best estimate of such losses for those cases for which such estimates can be made. The Company's estimate involves significant judgment, given the varying stages of the proceedings (including the fact that many of them are currently in preliminary stages), the number of unresolved issues in many of the proceedings (including issues regarding class certification and the scope of many of the claims), and the related uncertainty of the potential outcomes of these proceedings. In making determinations of the likely outcome of pending litigation, the Company considers many factors, including, but not limited to, the nature of the claim, the Company's experience with similar types of claims, the jurisdiction in which the matter is filed, input from outside legal counsel, the likelihood of resolving the matter through alternative mechanisms, the matter's current status and the damages sought or demands made. Accordingly, the Company's estimate will change from time to time, and actual losses could exceed the current estimate.

In certain legal proceedings, the Company may have recourse to insurance or third-party contractual indemnities to cover all or portions of its litigation expenses, judgments, or settlements. Loss estimates and accruals for potential liability related to legal proceedings are typically exclusive of potential recoveries, if any, under the Company's insurance policies or third-party indemnities.

The Company believes that the estimate of the aggregate range of reasonably possible losses in excess of the amount accrued for its legal proceedings outstanding as of March 31, 2024, where the range of loss can be estimated, was not material. As of March 31, 2024, there were no material developments in any of the legal proceedings included in Note 14 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the 2023 Form 10-K, and there were no new material legal proceedings during the three months ended March 31, 2024.

Executive Overview

We are a global financial and business services company with operations in the Americas, Europe and Australia. Our primary business is the purchase, collection and management of portfolios of nonperforming loans. We are headquartered in Norfolk, Virginia, and our shares of common stock are traded on the Nasdaq Global Select Market under the symbol "PRAA".

For the first quarter of 2024, we generated:

•Total portfolio purchases of $245.8 million.

•Total cash collections of $449.5 million.

•Cash efficiency ratio of 58.0%.

•Diluted earnings per share of $0.09.

•ERC of $6.5 billion as of March 31, 2024.

Building on the momentum from last year, we began 2024 on a positive note, with higher cash collections in the Americas and Europe compared to Q1 2023. Although we are seeing fewer large one-time payments in the U.S. and some markets in Europe, our level of customer engagement and the proportion of customers paying us both remain fairly steady.

We remain disciplined with regards to pricing and are strategically deploying capital in the markets where we see the most attractive returns, and the combination of increased purchases and improved pricing is positively impacting portfolio income. Our roadmap to enhanced profitability is centered on the creation of value from higher cash collections, while reducing marginal costs, and is supported by three pillars:

1.Optimizing investments - increasing ERC and portfolio returns.

2.Driving operational execution - maximizing cash collected per dollar invested.

3.Managing expenses - optimizing our cost structure.

In the U.S., we continue to capitalize on the significant growth in U.S. portfolio supply driven by credit normalization. We recorded our second highest Q1 U.S. investment level in Company history and expect strong portfolio investments to continue. There is a strong correlation between U.S. credit card charge-off rates and our U.S. portfolio purchases, and in recent years, we have seen industry credit card balances and delinquency and charge-off rates continue to rise. Across our U.S. call centers, we have continued to refine and optimize our customer contact strategies and built capacity to support portfolio growth. We have also made improvements to our overall legal collection processes, and we are encouraged by the pace at which we are realizing cash collections from these process enhancements. In Brazil, our cash collections in Q1 2024 continued to benefit from higher recent purchasing levels.

In Europe, investment opportunities are less predictable than the U.S., since the market is more spot-driven, and we have not seen large spot transactions similar to those that have come to market previously. The volume of portfolios available for sale in Q1 2024 was lower than normal, however, we are seeing an uptick in market volumes, and we expect that our investments in the second quarter will align more closely with long-term trends.

First Quarter 2024 ("Q1 2024") Compared To First Quarter 2023 ("Q1 2023")

Cash Collections

Cash collections were as follows (amounts in thousands):

	First Quarter
	2024		2023		$ Change		% Change
Americas and Australia Core	$	256,861	$	227,960	$	28,901	12.7	%
Americas Insolvency	25,209		25,751		(542)		(2.1)

Europe Insolvency	21,515		23,568		(2,053)		(8.7)
Total cash collections	$	449,518	$	411,284	$	38,234	9.3	%
Cash collections adjusted (1)	$	449,518	$	419,044	$	30,474	7.3	%

(1)Cash collections adjusted refers to Q1 2023 foreign currency cash collections remeasured at Q1 2024 average U.S. dollar exchange rates.

Cash collections were $449.5 million in Q1 2024, an increase of $38.2 million, or 9.3%, compared to $411.3 million in Q1 2023. The increase was primarily due to an increase in U.S. Core collections of $21.4 million, driven largely by higher recent purchasing levels and the impact of our cash-generating initiatives, which were supplemented by tax refund seasonality. Also contributing to the increase were higher cash collections in Europe and Brazil of $9.8 million and $6.7 million, respectively, primarily due to higher recent purchasing levels.

Revenues

Revenues were as follows (amounts in thousands):

	First Quarter
	2024		2023		$ Change		% Change
Portfolio income	$	202,056	$	188,242	$	13,814	7.3	%
Changes in expected recoveries	51,674		(36,912)		88,586		240.0
Total portfolio revenue	253,730		151,330		102,400		67.7
Other revenue	1,856		4,140		(2,284)		(55.2)
Total revenues	$	255,586	$	155,470	$	100,116	64.4	%

Total Portfolio Revenue

Total portfolio revenue was $253.7 million in Q1 2024, an increase of $102.4 million, or 67.7%, compared to $151.3 million in Q1 2023. This increase was primarily due to the increase in changes in expected recoveries, driven mainly by cash collections overperformance in the U.S., Brazil and Europe, and a net increase to the ERC of certain pools in Q1 2024 compared to a net decrease in the prior year period. The increase in portfolio income was primarily due to the impact of higher purchasing and improved returns in the U.S. beginning in 2023.

Operating Expenses

Total operating expenses of $189.2 million in Q1 2024 were flat compared to Q1 2023, increasing by $0.1 million.

Compensation and Employee Services

Compensation and employee services were $73.6 million in Q1 2024, a decrease of $8.8 million, or 10.7%, compared to $82.4 million in Q1 2023. The decrease mainly reflects severance expenses of $7.5 million incurred in Q1 2023, and despite adding to our U.S. call center employee base to service the larger volume of accounts, adjusting for those severances expenses, compensation and employee services expenses were lower compared to the prior year period.

Legal Collection Fees

Legal collection fees were $12.1 million in Q1 2024, an increase of $3.3 million, or 37.3%, compared to $8.8 million in Q1 2023. Legal collection fees represent contingent fees incurred for the cash collections generated by our third-party attorney network. The increase mainly reflects higher external legal collections within our U.S. Core portfolio.

22

Legal Collection Costs

Legal collection costs were $26.7 million in Q1 2024, an increase of $2.8 million, or 11.7%, compared to $23.9 million in Q1 2023. Legal collection costs consist primarily of costs paid to courts where a lawsuit is filed for the purpose of attempting to collect on an account. The increase primarily reflects higher volumes of lawsuits filed in Europe, as well as the costs associated with our legal cash-generating initiatives in the U.S.

Agency Fees

Agency fees were $19.7 million in Q1 2024, an increase of $2.3 million, or 13.2%, compared to $17.4 million in Q1 2023. Agency fees primarily represent third-party collection fees. The increase was mainly due to the increase in cash collections in Brazil.

Communication

Communication expense was $12.6 million in Q1 2024, an increase of $2.1 million, or 19.9%, compared to $10.5 million in Q1 2023. Communication expense relates mainly to correspondence, network and calling costs associated with our revenue generating activities. The increase was primarily due to the expansion in account volumes.

Interest Expense, Net

Interest expense, net was $52.3 million in Q1 2024, an increase of $14.0 million, or 36.6%, compared to $38.3 million in Q1 2023. The increase was primarily due to higher average debt balances and increased interest rates in Q1 2024.

Interest expense, net consisted of the following (amounts in thousands):

	First Quarter
	2024		2023		$ Change		% Change
Interest on debt obligations and unused line fees	$	33,956	$	21,824	$	12,132	55.6	%
Interest on senior notes	18,203		15,073		3,130		20.8
Coupon interest on convertible notes	—		3,019		(3,019)		(100.0)
Amortization of loan fees and other loan costs	2,200		2,441		(241)		(9.9)
Interest income	(2,081)		(4,074)		1,993		(48.9)
Interest expense, net	$	52,278	$	38,283	$	13,995	36.6	%

Income Tax Expense/(Benefit)

Income tax expense was $2.4 million in Q1 2024 compared to a tax benefit of $18.7 million in Q1 2023. The increase was primarily due to higher income before taxes. In Q1 2024, our effective tax rate was 16.9% compared to an effective tax benefit rate of 25.7% in Q1 2023, due mainly to higher income before taxes, as well as changes in the mix of income from different taxing jurisdictions and the timing of discrete items.

Supplemental Performance Data

Finance Receivables Portfolio Performance

We purchase portfolios of nonperforming loans from a variety of credit originators or acquire portfolios through strategic acquisitions and segregate them into two main portfolio segments: Core or Insolvency, based on the status of the account upon acquisition. In addition, the accounts are segregated into geographical regions based upon where the account was acquired. Ultimately, accounts are aggregated into annual pools based on portfolio segment, geography and year of acquisition. Portfolios of accounts that were in an insolvency status at the time of acquisition are represented in the Insolvency tables below. All other acquisitions of portfolios of accounts are included in our Core portfolio tables as represented below. Once an account is initially segregated, it is not later transferred from an Insolvency pool to a Core pool or vice versa and the account continues to be accounted for as originally segregated regardless of any future changes in operational status. Specifically, if a Core account files for bankruptcy or insolvency protection after acquisition, we adjust our collection practices to comply with any respective bankruptcy or insolvency rules or policies; however, for accounting purposes, the account remains in the Core pool. In the event an insolvency account is dismissed from its bankruptcy or insolvency status whether voluntarily or involuntarily, we are typically free to pursue alternative collection activities; however, the account remains in the Insolvency pool.

The purchase price multiple represents our estimate of total cash collections over the original purchase price of the portfolio. Purchase price multiples can vary over time due to a variety of factors, including pricing competition, supply levels, paper type, age of the accounts acquired, mix of portfolios purchased, costs to collect, expected returns and changes in operational efficiency. For example, increased pricing due to elevated levels of competition or supply constraints negatively impacts purchase price multiples as we pay more to buy similar portfolios of nonperforming loans.

Further, there is a direct relationship between the price we pay for a portfolio, the purchase price multiple and the effective interest rate of the pool. When we pay more for a portfolio, the purchase price multiple and effective interest rates are generally lower. The opposite tends to occur when we pay less for a portfolio. Certain types of accounts have lower collection costs, and we generally pay more for these types of accounts, resulting in a lower purchase price multiple but similar net income margins when compared with other portfolio purchases. Within a given portfolio type, when lower purchase price multiples are the result of more competitive pricing, this generally leads to lower profitability. As portfolio pricing becomes more favorable, our profitability will tend to increase. Profitability within given Core portfolio types may also be impacted by the age and quality of the accounts, which impact the cost to collect those accounts. Fresher accounts, for example, typically carry lower associated collection costs, while older accounts and lower balance accounts typically carry higher costs and, as a result, require higher purchase price multiples to achieve the same net profitability as fresher paper.

Revenue recognition is driven by estimates of the amount and timing of future cash collections. We record new portfolio acquisitions at the purchase price, which reflects the amount we expect to collect discounted at an effective interest rate. During the year of acquisition, portfolios are aggregated into annual pools, and the blended effective interest rate will change to reflect new buying and new cash flow estimates until the end of the year. At that time, the purchase price amount is fixed at the aggregated amounts paid to acquire the portfolio, the effective interest rate is fixed at the amount we expect to collect, discounted at the rate to equate purchase price to the recovery estimate, and the currency rates are fixed for purposes of comparability in future periods. Depending on the level of performance and expected future impacts from our operations, we may update ERC and TEC levels based on the results of our cash forecasting with a correlating adjustment to the purchase price multiple. We follow an established process to evaluate ERC, and we typically do not adjust our ERC and TEC until we gain sufficient collection experience and confidence with a pool of accounts. Over time, our TEC has often increased as pools have aged resulting in the ratio of TEC to purchase price for any given year of buying to gradually increase.

The numbers presented in the following tables represent gross cash collections and do not reflect any costs to collect; therefore, they may not represent relative profitability. Due to all of the factors described above, readers should be cautious when making comparisons of purchase price multiples among periods and between types of categories of portfolio segments and related geographies.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

We report our financial results in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). However, our management also uses certain non-GAAP financial measures, including:

•adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization ("Adjusted EBITDA"), to evaluate the Company's performance and to set performance goals; and

•return on average tangible equity ("ROATE"), as a measure to monitor and evaluate operating performance relative to the Company's equity.

Adjusted EBITDA

We present Adjusted EBITDA because we consider it an important supplemental measure of operations and financial performance. Our management believes Adjusted EBITDA helps provide enhanced period-to-period comparability of operations and financial performance, as it excludes certain items whose fluctuations from period-to-period do not necessarily correspond to changes in the operations of our business, and is useful to investors as other companies in the industry report similar financial measures. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to net income determined in accordance with GAAP. In addition, our calculation of Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to the calculation of similarly titled measures presented by other companies. Adjusted EBITDA is calculated starting with our GAAP financial measure, Net income/(loss) attributable to PRA Group, Inc. and is adjusted for:

•income tax expense (or less income tax benefit);

•foreign exchange loss (or less foreign exchange gain);

•interest expense, net (or less interest income, net);

•other expense (or less other income);

•depreciation and amortization;

•impairment of real estate;

•net income attributable to noncontrolling interests; and

•recoveries applied to negative allowance less changes in expected recoveries.

The following table provides a reconciliation of Net income/(loss) attributable to PRA Group, Inc. as reported in accordance with GAAP to Adjusted EBITDA for the last 12 months ("LTM") as of March 31, 2024, and for the year ended December 31, 2023 (amounts in thousands):

Return on average tangible equity

We use ROATE, which is a supplemental measure of performance that is not required by, or presented in accordance with, GAAP, to monitor and evaluate operating performance relative to the Company's equity. Management believes ROATE is a useful financial measure for investors in evaluating the effective use of equity, and is an important component of our long-term shareholder return. Average tangible equity ("ATE") is defined as average Total stockholders' equity - PRA Group, Inc. less average goodwill and average other intangible assets. ROATE is calculated by dividing annualized Net income/(loss) attributable to PRA Group, Inc. by ATE. The following table displays our ROATE and provides a reconciliation of Total stockholders' equity - PRA Group, Inc. as reported in accordance with GAAP to ATE for the periods indicated (amounts in thousands, except for ratio data):

For additional details about our credit facilities, term loan and senior notes, see Note 5 to our Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report.

33

Interest-bearing deposits. As of March 31, 2024, interest-bearing deposits totaled $113.3 million. In Q1 2024, the interest-bearing deposit limit under our European credit facility was increased from SEK 1.2 billion to SEK 2.2 billion, and as of March 31, 2024, our limit was $206.3 million in U.S. dollars.

Furthermore, we have the ability to slow the purchase of nonperforming loans and to use the net cash flow generated from cash collections on our portfolio of existing nonperforming loans to temporarily service our debt and fund existing operations.

Uses of Liquidity and Material Cash Requirements

Forward Flows. We enter into forward flow agreements for the purchase of nonperforming loans. These agreements typically have terms ranging from six to 12 months, or they can be open-ended, and establish purchase prices and specific criteria for the accounts to be purchased. Some of the agreements establish a volume reference for the contract term in the form of a target or maximum, however, very few agreements establish a minimum contractual obligation, and many of the contracts contain early termination provisions allowing either party to cancel the agreements in accordance with a specified notice period.

As of March 31, 2024, we have forward flow agreements in place with an estimated purchase price of approximately $473.9 million over the next 12 months. This total is comprised of $375.8 million for the Americas and Australia and $98.1 million for Europe. These amounts represent our estimated forward flow purchases over the next 12 months based on projections and other factors, including sellers' estimates of future flows sales, and are dependent on actual delivery by the sellers. Accordingly, amounts purchased under these agreements may vary significantly. In addition to these agreements, we may also enter into new or renewed forward flow commitments and/or close on spot purchase transactions.

Borrowings. As of March 31, 2024, we had $3.0 billion in borrowings. The estimated interest, unused fees and principal payments for the next 12 months are $204.5 million, of which $10.0 million relates to principal on our term loan. After 12 months, principal payments on our debt are due from between one and six years. Many of our financing arrangements include covenants with which we must comply, and as of March 31, 2024, we determined that we were in compliance with these covenants.

Share Repurchases. On February 25, 2022, our Board of Directors approved a share repurchase program under which we are authorized to repurchase up to $150.0 million of our outstanding common stock. Repurchases are subject to restrictive covenants contained in our credit facilities and indentures that govern our senior notes, and there were no repurchases during the first quarter of 2024.

The share repurchase program has no stated expiration date and does not obligate us to repurchase any specified amount of shares, remains subject to the discretion of our Board of Directors and, subject to compliance with applicable laws, may be modified, suspended or discontinued at any time. Repurchases may be made from time-to-time in open market transactions, through privately negotiated transactions, in block transactions, through purchases made in accordance with trading plans adopted under Rule 10b5-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), or other methods, subject to market and/or other conditions and applicable regulatory requirements. As of March 31, 2024, we had $67.7 million remaining for share repurchases under the program.

Leases. Our leases have remaining terms from one to 12 years. As of March 31, 2024, we had $48.6 million in lease liabilities, of which $9.9 million is due within the next 12 months. For additional information about our leases, refer to Note 5 to our Consolidated Financial Statements in the 2023 Form 10-K.

Derivatives. We enter into derivative financial instruments to reduce our exposure to fluctuations in interest rates on variable rate debt and foreign currency exchange rates. As of March 31, 2024, we had $8.4 million of derivative liabilities, of which $1.4 million matures within one year. The remaining $7.0 million matures in 2028. For more information, see Note 6 to our Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report.

Investments. As of March 31, 2024, we held $47.1 million in Swedish treasury securities to meet the liquidity requirements of the Swedish Financial Services Authority for our banking subsidiary, AK Nordic AB.

We believe that funds generated from operations and cash collections on nonperforming loan portfolios, together with existing cash, available borrowings under our revolving credit facilities and access to the capital markets, will be sufficient to finance our operations, planned capital expenditures, forward flow purchase commitments, debt maturities and additional portfolio purchases during the next 12 months and beyond. Market conditions permitting, we may seek to access the debt or equity capital markets as we deem appropriate. Business acquisitions or higher than expected levels of portfolio purchasing could require additional financing from other sources. We may also, from time-to-time, repurchase senior notes in the open market or otherwise.

Cash Flow Analysis

The following table summarizes our cash flow activity for the first quarter of 2024 compared to the prior year period (amounts in thousands):

	First Quarter
	2024		2023		$ Change
Net cash provided by/(used in):
Operating activities	$	(72,999)	$	(47,521)	$	(25,478)
Investing activities	15,211		8,979		6,232
Financing activities	52,822		425,806		(372,984)
Effect of exchange rate on cash	861		3,656		(2,795)
Net increase/(decrease) in cash and cash equivalents	$	(4,105)	$	390,920	$	(395,025)

Operating Activities

Net cash used in operating activities mainly reflects cash collections recognized as revenue and cash paid for operating expenses, interest and income taxes. To calculate net cash used in operating activities, net income/(loss) was adjusted for (i) non-cash items included in net income such as unrealized foreign currency transaction gains, changes in expected recoveries, depreciation and amortization, deferred taxes, fair value changes in equity securities, and stock-based compensation, as well as (ii) changes in the balances of operating assets and liabilities, which can vary significantly in the normal course of business due to the amount and timing of payments.

Net cash used in operating activities was $73.0 million in Q1 2024 compared to $47.5 million in Q1 2023. This was primarily driven by higher cash paid for interest and lower accrued expenses, partially offset by higher cash collections recognized as income.

Investing Activities

Net cash provided by investing activities increased $6.2 million in Q1 2024. An increase of $26.0 million in recoveries applied to the negative allowance and a $7.2 million net decrease in investment purchase/disposal activity were partially offset by a $26.8 million increase in purchases of nonperforming loan portfolios.

Financing Activities

Net cash provided by financing activities decreased $373.0 million in Q1 2024. A decrease of $400.0 million in proceeds from senior notes due to the issuance of our 2028 Notes in Q1 2023 was partially offset by a $22.7 million increase in net draws on our lines of credit.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

For discussion of recent accounting pronouncements and the anticipated effects on our Consolidated Financial Statements, see Note 11 to our Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report.

Critical Accounting Estimates

Our Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. Some of our significant accounting policies require that we use estimates, assumptions and judgments that affect the reported amounts of revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities. For a discussion of our significant accounting policies and critical accounting estimates, refer to Note 1 to our Consolidated Financial Statements in our 2023 Form 10-K.

We consider accounting estimates to be critical if they (1) involve a significant level of estimation uncertainty and (2) have had or are reasonably likely to have a material impact on our financial condition or results of operations. We base our estimates on historical experience, current trends and various other assumptions that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. If these estimates differ significantly from actual results, the impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements may be material. We have determined that the following accounting policies involve critical estimates:

35

Revenue Recognition - Finance Receivables

Revenue recognition for finance receivables involves the use of estimates and the exercise of judgment on the part of management. These estimates include projections of the amount and timing of cash collections we expect to receive from our pools of accounts. We review individual pools for trends, actual performance versus projections and curve shape (a graphical depiction of the amount and timing of cash collections). We then project ERC and apply a discounted cash flow methodology to our ERC. Adjustments to ERC may include adjustments reflecting recent collection trends, our view of current and future economic conditions, changes in collection assumptions or other timing related adjustments.

Significant changes in our cash flow estimates could result in increased or decreased revenue as we immediately recognize the discounted value of such changes using the constant effective interest rate of the pool. Generally, adjustments to cash forecasts result in an adjustment to revenue at an amount less than the impact of the performance in the period due to the effects of discounting. Additionally, cash collection forecast increases will result in more revenue being recognized and cash collection forecast decreases in less revenue being recognized over the life of the pool.

Goodwill

In accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") ASC Topic 350, "Intangibles-Goodwill and Other" ("ASC 350"), we evaluate goodwill for impairment annually as of October 1, and more frequently if circumstances indicate that it is more-likely-than-not that the fair value of a reporting unit is below its carrying value.

We determine the fair value of a reporting unit by applying certain approaches prescribed under ASC Topic 820 "Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures": the income approach and the market approach. Under the income approach, we estimate the fair value of a reporting unit based on the present value of estimated future cash flows and a residual terminal value. Cash flow projections are based on management's estimates of a variety of factors, including growth rates and operating margins, which take into consideration industry and market conditions. Under the market approach, we estimate fair value based on market trading multiples and other relevant market transactions involving comparable publicly traded companies with operating and investment characteristics similar to the reporting unit. Depending on the availability of public data and suitable comparable transaction data, we may give more weight to the income approach than the market approach. We also assess the reasonableness of the aggregate estimated fair value of our reporting units by comparison to our market capitalization over a reasonable period, considering historic control premiums in the financial services industry and the current market environment.

As of March 31, 2024, we had goodwill of $411.8 million, consisting primarily of $385.0 million in our Debt Buying and Collection ("DBC") reporting unit. We performed our most recent annual review of the DBC reporting unit as of October 1, 2023, and concluded that goodwill was not impaired.

As of March 31, 2024, our quarterly impairment assessment did not identify the occurrence of any triggering events, and we determined our goodwill was not more-likely-than-not impaired. However, consistent with our most recent annual review, the DBC reporting unit may be at-risk for future impairment if our cash flow projections are not met or if market factors utilized in the impairment test deteriorate, including adverse changes in the debt sales market that impact our estimated purchasing volumes and purchase price multiples, and/or an increase in the discount rate. For additional information, refer to Item 7 "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Critical Accounting Estimates" of our 2023 Form 10-K.

Income Taxes

We are subject to income taxes in the U.S. and in numerous international jurisdictions. These tax laws are complex and are subject to different interpretations by the taxpayer and the relevant government taxing authorities. When determining our domestic and non-U.S. income tax expense, we make judgments about the application of these inherently complex laws.

We record a tax provision for the anticipated tax consequences of the reported results of operations. The provision for income taxes is estimated using the asset and liability method, under which deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the financial reporting and tax basis of assets and liabilities, and for operating losses and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using the currently enacted tax rates that apply to taxable income in effect for the years in which those tax assets are expected to be realized or settled.

We exercise significant judgment in estimating the potential exposure to unresolved tax matters and apply a more likely than not criteria approach for recording tax benefits related to uncertain tax positions in the application of the complex tax laws. While actual results could vary, we believe we have adequate tax accruals with respect to the ultimate outcome of such

36

unresolved tax matters. We record interest and penalties related to unresolved tax matters as a component of income tax expense when the more likely than not standards are not met.

If all or part of the deferred tax assets are determined not to be realizable in the future, we would establish a valuation allowance and charge the impact to earnings in the period such a determination is made. If we subsequently realize deferred tax assets that were previously determined to be unrealizable, the respective valuation allowance would be reversed, resulting in a positive adjustment to earnings. The establishment or release of a valuation allowance does not have an impact on cash, nor does such an allowance preclude the use of loss carryforwards or other deferred tax assets in future periods. The calculation of tax liabilities involves significant judgment in estimating the impact of uncertainties in the application of complex tax laws. Resolution of these uncertainties in a manner inconsistent with our expectations could have a material impact on our results of operations and financial position. For further information regarding our uncertain tax positions, refer to Note 13 to our Consolidated Financial Statements in our 2023 Form 10-K.

37

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Our business is subject to various financial risks, including market, currency, interest rate, credit, liquidity and cash flow risk. We use various strategies, including derivative financial instruments, to manage these risks; however, they may still impact our Consolidated Financial Statements.

We do not utilize derivative financial instruments with a level of complexity or with a risk greater than the exposure to be managed, nor do we enter into or hold derivatives for trading or speculative purposes. Derivative instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of non-performance, or credit risk. We do not believe that we currently face a significant risk of loss in the event of non-performance by the counterparties to these instruments, as these transactions were executed with a diversified group of major financial institutions with investment-grade credit ratings. Our intention is to spread our counterparty credit risk across a number of counterparties so that exposure to a single counterparty is mitigated.

Interest Rate Risk

We are subject to interest rate risk from borrowings on our variable rate credit facilities, as well as our interest-bearing deposits. As such, our consolidated financial results are subject to fluctuations due to changes in market interest rates. We assess this interest rate risk by estimating the increase or decrease in interest expense that would occur due to a change in short-term interest rates. The borrowings on our variable rate credit facilities were $1.9 billion as of March 31, 2024, and based on our debt structure, assuming a 50 basis point decrease/increase in interest rates, interest expense over the following 12 months would decrease/increase by an estimated $6.1 million.

To reduce the exposure to changes in the market rate of interest, we have entered into interest rate derivative contracts to hedge a portion of our borrowings under floating rate financing arrangements. Under the terms of the interest rate derivatives, we receive a variable interest rate and pay a fixed interest rate. Of our $3.0 billion in total borrowings as of March 31, 2024, $1.1 billion was fixed rate debt. Considering these fixed rate borrowings and the interest rate hedges on our variable rate debt, with maturities ranging from nine months to four years, as of March 31, 2024, 60% of our total debt was either fixed rate or converted to a fixed rate.

Currency Exchange Risk

We operate internationally and enter into transactions denominated in various foreign currencies. During Q1 2024, we generated $130.8 million of revenues from operations outside the U.S. and used multiple functional currencies. Weakness in one particular currency might be offset by strength in other currencies over time.

Fluctuations in foreign currencies could cause us to incur foreign currency exchange gains and losses, and could adversely affect our comprehensive income and stockholders' equity. Additionally, our reported financial results could change from period-to-period due solely to fluctuations between currencies. Foreign currency gains and losses are primarily the result of the remeasurement of transactions in other currencies into an entity's functional currency. Foreign currency gains and losses are included as a component of Other income and (expense) in our Consolidated Income Statements. From time-to-time, we may elect to enter into foreign exchange derivative contracts to reduce these variations in our Consolidated Income Statements.

When an entity's functional currency is different than the reporting currency of its parent, foreign currency translation adjustments may occur. Foreign currency translation adjustments are included as a component of Other comprehensive income/(loss) in our Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income and as a component of Equity in our Consolidated Balance Sheets.

We have taken measures to mitigate the impact of foreign currency fluctuations. We have organized our European operations so that portfolio ownership and collections generally occur within the same entity. Additionally, our European and UK credit facilities are multi-currency facilities, allowing us to better match funding and portfolio acquisitions by currency. We actively monitor the value of our finance receivables by currency. In the event adjustments are required to our liability composition by currency we may, from time to time, execute re-balancing foreign exchange contracts to more closely align funding and portfolio acquisitions by currency.

38

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures. We maintain disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. We conducted an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report. Based on this evaluation, the principal executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded that, as of March 31, 2024, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting. There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended March 31, 2024, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
