Ferratum Group reduces 2020 revenue and EBIT expectations
Helsinki, 18 March 2020 - Ferratum Oyj (ISIN: FI4000106299, WKN: A1W9NS)
("Ferratum" or the "Group") reduces 2020 revenue and EBIT expectations.
In 2020, the Board of Ferratum Oyj expects the Covid-19 pandemic to have a
material impact on the Groups performance. Revenue and EBIT are expected to
materially decrease compared to 2019.
Taking into consideration the current macro-economic uncertainty, impairment
levels are expected to increase during 2020. An expectation of deteriorating
economic indicators would increase impairments driven by the implemented
statistical risk reserving model. In addition, the Board expects continued
high volatility in FX rates as a consequence of the Covid-19 outbreak and
the oil market turmoil which might have a negative impact on net
profitability in 2020.
