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 and by servicing consumer bankruptcy accounts 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 ~~June 30, 2022,~~March 31, 2023, its Consolidated Income Statements, ~~and~~ Statements of Comprehensive ~~(Loss)/~~Income, ~~for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, and its~~ Consolidated Statements of Changes in Equity and Statements of Cash Flows for the ~~six~~three months ended ~~June 30,~~March 31, 2023 and 2022 ~~and 2021~~ have been included. The Company's Consolidated Income Statements for the three ~~and six~~ months ended ~~June 30, 2022~~March 31, 2023 may not be indicative of future results.

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, ~~2021~~2022 (the ~~"2021~~"2022 Form 10-K").

Reclassification of prior year presentation: Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified for consistency with the current year presentation. Restricted cash and cash equivalents has been broken out of Other assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Fee income is now included within Other revenue on the Consolidated Income Statements.

Consolidation: 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.

Entities in which the Company has a controlling financial interest, through ownership of the majority of the entities’ voting equity interests, or through other contractual rights that give the Company control, consist of entities which purchase and collect on portfolios of nonperforming loans.

Investments in companies in which the Company has significant influence over operating and financing decisions, but does not own a majority of the voting equity interests, are accounted for in accordance with the equity method of accounting, which requires the Company to recognize its proportionate share of the entity’s net earnings. ~~These~~Income or loss from these investments ~~are included in Other assets, with income or loss~~is included in Other revenue.

The Company performs on-going reassessments of whether changes in the facts and circumstances regarding the Company’s involvement with an entity cause the Company’s consolidation conclusion to change.

Restricted cash and cash equivalents: Cash and cash equivalents that are subject to legal restrictions or are unavailable for general operating purposes are classified as restricted cash and cash equivalents on the Company's Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company will use these funds to retire all or a portion of its $345.0 million aggregate principal amount of Convertible Senior Notes due June 1, 2023 or to satisfy any other obligations with respect to such notes, and to pay redress to customers as required by the Company's settlement with the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ("CFPB"). See Note 12 for information on the CFPB settlement.

Segments: The Company has determined that it has two operating segments that meet the aggregation criteria of Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 280, Segment Reporting ("ASC 280") and, therefore, it has 1one reportable segment, accounts receivable management. This conclusion is based on similarities among the operating units, including economic characteristics, the nature of the products and services, the nature of the production processes, the types or class of customer for their products and services, the methods used to distribute their products and services and the nature of the regulatory environment.

~~The following tables show the amount of revenue generated~~

In order to ~~make estimates of~~estimate future cash collections, the Company considered historical performance, current economic forecasts, short-term and long-term growth and consumer habits in the various geographies in which the Company operates. The Company considered recent collection activity in its determination to adjust assumptions related to estimated remaining collections ("ERC") for certain pools. Based on these considerations, the Company’s estimates incorporate changes in both amounts and in the timing of expected cash collections over the forecast period.

Changes in expected recoveries for the three months ended ~~June 30,~~March 31, 2023 were a net negative $36.9 million. This includes $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 reflect 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.

Changes in expected recoveries for the three months ended March 31, 2022 were a net positive ~~$56.6~~$29.9 million. This reflects ~~$35.9~~$23.7 million in recoveries received in excess of forecast reflecting strong cash collections overperformance in Europe and a ~~$20.7~~$6.2 million ~~positive~~ adjustment to changes in expected future recoveries. The changes in expected future recoveries ~~reflects~~included the Company's ~~assessment of certain older pools, where~~ continued ~~strong performance has resulted in an increase to the Company's forecasted ERC. The Company continues to believe~~assumption that the majority of the overperformance ~~it has experienced in its more recent pools~~ was due to acceleration in the timing of cash ~~collections rather than an increase in total expected~~ collections.

Changes in expected recoveries for the three months ended June 30, 2021 were a net positive $63.5 million. This reflected $75.4 million in recoveries received in excess of forecast, which was largely due The Company also made near-term adjustments to ~~significant cash collections overperformance in the second quarter of 2021, partially offset by an $11.8 million negative adjustment to changes in~~ expected future ~~recoveries. The changes~~collections in ~~expected future recoveries reflected the Company's assumption that the majority of the overperformance was acceleration of future collections combined with adjustments in some~~certain geographies ~~to increase near-term expected collections, to bring~~bringing them in line with recent performance trends with corresponding ~~reductions~~adjustments made later in ~~that~~the forecast period.

Changes in expected recoveries for the six months ended June 30, 2022 were a net positive $86.5 million. This reflects $59.5 million in recoveries received in excess of forecast reflecting cash collections overperformance and a $26.9 million positive adjustment to changes in expected future recoveries. The changes in expected future recoveries reflects the Company's assessment of certain older pools, where continued strong performance has resulted in an increase to the Company's forecasted ERC. The Company continues to believe that the majority of the overperformance in its more recent pools was due to acceleration in the timing of cash collections rather than an increase in total expected collections. The change in expected recoveries ~~also~~ included a $20.5 million write down ~~during the first quarter in 2022~~ on one portfolio in Brazil.

Changes in expected recoveries for the six months ended June 30, 2021 were a net positive $113.7 million. The changes were the net result of recoveries in excess of forecast of $178.4 million from significant cash collection overperformance in 2020 and 2021 reduced by a $64.7 million negative adjustment to changes in expected future recoveries. The change in expected future recoveries reflected the Company's assumption that the majority of the first half of 2021 overperformance was due to acceleration of future collections, combined with adjustments in some geographies to increase near-term expected collections bringing in them in line with performance trends, with corresponding reductions made later in that forecast period.

5. Leases:

The Company's operating lease portfolio primarily includes corporate offices and call centers. The majority of its leases have remaining lease terms of one year to 1514 years, some of which include options to extend the leases for up to five years, and others include options to terminate the leases within one year. Exercises of lease renewal options are typically at the Company's sole discretion and are included in its right-of-use ("ROU") assets and lease liabilities based upon whether the Company is reasonably certain of exercising the renewal options. The Company has lease agreements with lease and non-lease components, which are generally accounted for separately. The Company's lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants.

As most of the Company's leases do not provide an implicit rate, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the lease commencement date in determining the present value of the lease payments.

7. Derivatives:

The Company periodically enters into derivative financial instruments, typically interest rate swap agreements, interest rate caps and foreign currency contracts, to reduce its exposure to fluctuations in interest rates on variable-rate debt and foreign currency exchange rates. The Company does not utilize derivative financial instruments with a level of complexity or with a risk greater than the exposure to be managed nor does it enter into or hold derivatives for trading or speculative purposes. The Company periodically reviews the creditworthiness of the counterparty to assess the counterparty's ability to honor its obligation. Counterparty default would expose the Company to fluctuations in interest and currency rates. Derivative financial instruments are recognized at fair value in the Company's Consolidated Balance Sheets.

The following tables summarize the fair value of derivative instruments in the Company's Consolidated Balance Sheets as of ~~June 30, 2022~~March 31, 2023 and December 31, ~~2021~~2022 (amounts in thousands):

8. 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 differing levels of inputs in the determination of fair values.

Those levels of input are summarized as follows:

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

~~PRA Group, Inc.~~

~~Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements~~

•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.

PRA Group, Inc.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

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 Required To Be Carried at Fair Value

In accordance with the disclosure requirements of ASC Topic 825, "Financial Instruments" ("ASC 825"), the table below summarizes fair value estimates for the Company's financial instruments that are not required to be carried at fair value. The total of the fair value calculations presented does not represent, and should not be construed to represent, the underlying value of the Company.

The carrying amounts in the table were recorded in the Company's Consolidated Balance Sheets at ~~June 30, 2022~~March 31, 2023 and December 31, ~~2021~~2022 (amounts in thousands):

Disclosure of the estimated fair values of financial instruments often requires the use of estimates. The carrying amount and estimates of the fair value of the Company's debt obligations outlined above do not include any related debt issuance costs associated with the debt obligations. The Company uses the following methods and assumptions to estimate the fair value of financial instruments:

Cash ~~and cash~~ equivalents: The carrying amount approximates fair value due to the short-term nature of the instruments and the observable quoted prices for identical assets ~~that can be found~~ in active markets. Accordingly, the Company ~~estimates the~~uses Level 1 inputs for its fair value ~~of cash and cash equivalents using Level 1 inputs.~~estimates.

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: The 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: The 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 estimates.

Term loan: The 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.

~~PRA Group, Inc.~~

~~Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements~~

Senior Notes and Convertible Notes: The fair value estimates for the Senior Notes and ~~the~~ Convertible Notes incorporate quoted market prices, which were 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.

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

~~Exchange traded funds:~~ ~~Fair value of the Company's investment in exchange traded funds is estimated using quoted market prices. Accordingly, the Company uses Level 1 inputs.~~

~~Mutual funds:~~ ~~Fair value of the Company's investment in mutual funds is~~ estimated using quoted market prices. Accordingly, the Company uses Level 1 inputs.

Derivative contracts: The estimated fair value of the derivative contracts is determined using industry standard valuation models. These models project future cash flows and discount the future amounts to a 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.

Investments measured using net asset value ("NAV")

Private equity funds: This class of investments consists of private equity funds that invest primarily in loans and securities, including single-family residential debt; corporate debt products; and financially-oriented, real-estate-rich and other operating companies in the Americas, Western Europe and Japan. These investments are subject to certain restrictions regarding transfers and withdrawals. The investments cannot be redeemed with the funds. Instead, the nature of the investments in this class is that distributions are received through the liquidation of the underlying assets of the fund. The investments are expected to be returned through distributions as a result of liquidations of the funds' underlying assets over one to five years. The fair value of these private equity funds following the application of the NAV practical ~~expedient~~expedient was ~~$5.0~~$4.0 million ~~and $5.1~~and $4.4 million as of ~~June 30, 2022~~March 31, 2023 and December 31, ~~2021,~~2022, respectively.

10. Earnings per Share:

Basic 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 the dilutive effect of the conversion spread of the Convertible Notes and nonvested share awards, if they are dilutive. There has been no dilutive effect of the Convertible Notes since issuance through ~~June 30, 2022.~~March 31, 2023. 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.

On July 29, 2021, the Board of Directors of the Company ("Board of Directors") approved a share repurchase program to purchase up to $150.0 million of the Company's outstanding shares of common stock. On October 28, 2021, the Board of Directors authorized an increase of $80.0 million to the existing program for a total of $230.0 million. On February 25, 2022, the ~~Company completed its $230.0 million share repurchase program. Also on February 25, 2022, the~~Company's Board of Directors approved a ~~new~~ share repurchase program under which the Company is authorized to repurchase up to $150.0 million of its ~~outstanding~~ common stock.

~~For the three months ended June 30, 2022, the Company repurchased 808,328 shares of its~~ We did not repurchase any common stock ~~for approximately $34.9 million, at an average price of $43.22 per share. For~~during the ~~six months~~first quarter ended June 30, 2022, the Company repurchased 1,668,359 shares of its common stock for approximately $74.4 million, at an average price of $44.59 per share. As of June 30, 2022, there was $92.7 million remaining for share repurchases under the new program. The Company's practice is to retire the shares it repurchases.

11. Income Taxes:

The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") ASC Topic 740 "Income Taxes" ("ASC 740") as it relates to the provision for income taxes and uncertainty in income taxes. The guidance prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return.

At ~~June 30, 2022,~~March 31, 2023, the tax years subject to examination by the major federal, state and international taxing jurisdictions are ~~2013~~2014 and subsequent years.

The Company intends for predominantly all international earnings to be indefinitely reinvested in its international operations; therefore, the recording of deferred tax liabilities for such unremitted earnings is not required. If international earnings were repatriated, the Company may need to accrue and pay taxes, although foreign tax credits may be available to partially reduce U.S. income taxes. The amount of cash on hand related to international operations with indefinitely reinvested ~~earnings~~earnings was ~~$54.0~~$88.4 million ~~and $61.9~~and $75.3 million as of ~~June 30, 2022~~March 31, 2023 and December 31, ~~2021,~~2022, respectively.

12. Commitments and Contingencies:

Employment Agreements:

The Company has entered into employment agreements with each of its U.S. executive officers, which expire on December 31, 2023. Such agreements provide for base salary payments as well as potential discretionary bonuses that consider the Company’s overall performance against its short and long-term financial and strategic objectives. The agreements also contain customary confidentiality and non-compete provisions. At ~~June 30, 2022, estimated~~March 31, 2023, estimated future compensation under these agreements was approximately ~~$10.2~~$8.8 million. Outside the U.S., the Company has entered into employment agreements with certain employees pursuant to local country regulations. Generally, these agreements do not have expiration dates. As a result it is impractical to estimate the amount of future compensation under these agreements. Accordingly, the future compensation under these agreements is not included in the ~~$10.2~~$8.8 million ~~total~~total above.

Forward Flow Agreements:

The Company is party to several forward flow agreements that allow for the purchase of nonperforming loans at ~~pre-established~~pre-established prices. The maximum remaining amount to be purchased under forward flow agreements at ~~June 30, 2022,~~March 31, 2023, was ~~$960.2~~$622.4 million.

~~PRA Group, Inc.~~

~~Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements~~

Finance Receivables:

Certain agreements for the purchase of finance receivables portfolios contain provisions that may, in limited circumstances, require the Company to refund a portion or all of the collections subsequently received by the Company on particular accounts. The potential refunds as of the balance sheet date are not considered to be significant.

Litigation and Regulatory Matters:

The Company and its subsidiaries are from time to time subject to a variety of routine 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 state or federal 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 claims, the Company's experience with similar types of claims, the jurisdiction in which the matter is filed, input from outside

PRA Group, Inc.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

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 be more than the current estimate.

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 at ~~June 30, 2022,~~March 31, 2023, where the range of loss can be estimated, was not material.

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.

~~Matters~~CFPB Investigation

Portfolio Recovery Associates, LLC ("LLC"), the Company's wholly owned subsidiary, entered into a consent order with the CFPB effective September 9, 2015 settling a previously disclosed investigation of certain debt collection practices of LLC (the "2015 Consent Order"). In response to requests and civil investigative demands from the CFPB, the Company provided certain documents and data regarding its debt collection practices to the CFPB. In December 2020, the CFPB advised the Company that the CFPB believed the Company may have violated certain provisions of the 2015 Consent Order and applicable law. On March 23, 2023, the CFPB filed a lawsuit against LLC alleging, among other things, that LLC had violated federal consumer financial law. On the same date, the CFPB and LLC entered into a final stipulated judgment and order to resolve the lawsuit. As part of the settlement, LLC agreed to pay a civil monetary penalty of $12 million and approximately $15 million to impacted consumers.

Iris Pounds vs. Portfolio Recovery Associates, LLC

Plaintiffs filed a putative class action on November 21, 2016 against the Company in Durham County, North Carolina alleging violations of the North Carolina Prohibited Practices by Collection agencies Act. Discovery in this matter is ongoing, the Company is defending this matter vigorously, and there remains uncertainty surrounding liability, class certification, and the interpretation of the statute, including statutory damages.

~~Recently issued accounting standards adopted:~~

~~Reference Rate Reform~~

In January 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-01, "Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Overall" ("ASU 2021-01"). ASU 2021-01 expands the scope of Reference Rate Reform ("ASC 848") to include derivatives affected by the discounting transition for certain optional expedients and exceptions. ASU 2021-01 is effective immediately for a limited time through December 31, 2022. The Company assessed whether amendments and modifications to its swap agreements and borrowing agreements qualify for any optional expedients. During the first quarter of 2022, the Company elected certain optional expedients under ASC 848 to maintain cash flow hedge accounting for swap agreements with a combined notional amount of $422.8 million after interest rate swaps that were indexed to GDP-LIBOR converted to the Sterling Overnight Index Average ("SONIA"), effective January 1, 2022. In the second quarter of 2022, the Company exited the relief provisions under ASC 848 after updating the hedged risk on these cash flow hedges to reflect SONIA-based cash flows expected to occur under the UK Credit Agreement.

The Company does not expect that any ~~other~~ recently issued accounting pronouncements will have a material effect on its Consolidated Financial Statements.

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 as of ~~June 30, 2022, employed 3,361 full time~~March 31, 2023, employed 3,184 full-time equivalents. Our shares of common stock are traded on the NASDAQ Global Select Market under the symbol "PRAA."

~~Macroeconomic Update~~Executive Overview

~~We continue to monitor developments related to~~For the ~~COVID-19 pandemic, and to date, have been able to mitigate the effects on our overall operations.~~ three months ended March 31, 2023, we had:

•Total portfolio purchases of $230.2 million.

•Total cash collections of $411.3 million.

•Estimated remaining collections of $5.7 billion.

•Cash efficiency ratio of 54.3%.

•Diluted earnings per share of $(1.50).

During ~~the first half of~~ 2022, ~~the trends we experienced~~excess consumer liquidity, primarily in the latter part of 2021 have largely continued with the easing or lifting of COVID-19 restrictions leading to increased consumer spending and travel. Leading financial industry publications have indicated that excess consumer liquidity hasU.S., resulted in lower levels of ~~charge offs~~charge-offs across most lending institutions.

Recent Federal Reserve data indicates that charge-offs of consumer debt are beginning to increase, and we expect ~~these trends~~ to ~~continue in the near-term; however, consistent with our experience during previous economic cycles, we believe charge offs will increase leading to~~see a greater level of supply ~~which we anticipate could occur~~and reduced pricing pressure in the ~~coming months. For additional~~U.S. The market in Europe has continued to have a consistent portfolio pipeline across most markets, supported by volumes of aged nonperforming loans.

The decrease~~March 31, 2022. We experienced a softer tax season than we had anticipated with U.S. collections missing our internal forecast by $9.9 million, which then prompted a reduction in forward looking ERC. This resulted in a negative $30.7 million net present value adjustment for our U.S. Core portfolio. Nearly half of this adjustment was ~~driven~~related to the 2021 U.S. Core vintage. This vintage includes the cohort of customers whose accounts were charged off in peak stimulus periods. We believe this effect, along with inflation and other macroeconomic factors, are drivers of this underperformance. In total, Europe overperformed our expectations during the quarter by 3%. This is a lower ~~purchasing, lower levels of cash overperformance~~margin than we have experienced in recent quarters and given the ~~impact of foreign exchange partially offset by an increase~~uncertain economic conditions globally, we made minimal adjustments to ~~our forecasted~~the future looking ERC resulting in ~~certain older pools.~~a negative $1.9 million net present value adjustment.

~~(1) Cash collections adjusted refers to 2021 cash collections remeasured using 2022 exchange rates.~~

Cash collections were $925.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022, a decrease of $174.7 million, or 15.9%, compared to $1,099.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The decrease was largely due to a decrease of $127.8 million, or 29.9%, in cash collections in U.S. call center and other collections, which we believe was mainly due to excess consumer liquidity during 2021 and lower levels of portfolio purchasing. Additionally, U.S. legal cash collections decreased $27.1 million, or 14.9%, mainly due to a lower volume of accounts in the legal channel. Europe cash collections decreased by $13.3 million, or 3.8%, reflecting the impact of a strengthening of the U.S. dollar partially offset by higher levels of portfolio purchases in the last few years.

~~A summary of our revenue generation during the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 is as follows (amounts in thousands):~~

~~Total Portfolio Revenue~~

Total portfolio revenue was $488.0 million for six months ended June 30, 2022, a decrease of $76.5 million, or 13.5%, compared to $564.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The decrease was primarily driven by lower purchasing, lower levels of cash overperformance and our first quarter $20.5 million write down on one portfolio in Brazil. These decreases were partially offset by an increase to our forecasted ERC in certain older pools.

~~Fee Income~~

Fee income was $8.3 million for six months ended June 30, 2022, an increase of $3.7 million, compared to $4.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The increase was primarily attributable to settlement timing in our claims processing company, CCB.

~~Other Revenue~~

Other revenue was $2.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022, a decrease of $3.4 million compared to $6.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021, reflecting a gain on sale from certain other assets during the first quarter of 2021.

The decrease was primarily attributable to lower levels of compensation accruals and a decrease in collector compensation expenses in the U.S. call centers.

~~Legal Collection Fees~~

Legal collection fees were $20.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022, a decrease of $4.8 million or 19.0%, compared to $25.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The decrease was mainly due to lower external legal cash collections in the U.S.

~~Legal Collection Costs~~

Legal collection costs were $34.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022, a decrease of $5.5 million, or 13.8%, compared to $39.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The decrease was primarily due to the continued impact from lower levels of accounts placed into the legal channel in the U.S. as a result of the prior year shift in cash collections from the legal channel to the call centers.

~~Agency Fees~~

~~Agency fees were $32.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022, compared to $31.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021.~~

Income tax expense was $18.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022, a decrease of $10.4 million, or 35.6%, compared to $29.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021. During the six months ended June 30, 2022, our effective tax rate was 20.3%, compared to 19.3% for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The decrease in income tax expense was primarily due to lower income before taxes during the six months ended June 30, 2022, which decreased $59.2 million, or 39.0% and lower levels of discrete items recorded. The increase in effective tax rate was mainly due to a change in total discrete items and change in the mix of income from different taxing jurisdictions.

Supplemental Performance Data

Finance Receivables Portfolio Performance

We purchase portfolios of nonperforming loans from a variety of credit originators or acquire portfolios through business acquisitions and segregate them into two main portfolio ~~segments:~~segments, Core or Insolvency, based on the status of the account upon acquisition. In addition, the accounts are ~~further~~ segregated into geographical regions based upon where the account was ~~purchased. The~~acquired.

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 and changes in ~~our~~ operational efficiency.For example, increased pricing due to elevated levels of competition ~~during the 2005 to 2008 period~~or supply constraints negatively ~~impacted~~impacts purchase price multiples as we pay more to buy similar portfolios of ~~our Core~~nonperforming loans.

When competition increases and/or supply decreases, pricing often becomes negatively impacted relative to expected collections, and effective interest rates tend to trend lower. The opposite tends to occur when competition decreases and/or supply increases.

other portfolio purchases. Within a given portfolio type, to the extent that lower purchase price multiples are the result of more competitive pricing, ~~and lower net yields,~~ this will generally lead to lower profitability. As portfolio pricing becomes more favorable on a relative basis, 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, ~~the~~portfolios are aggregated into annual ~~pool is aggregated~~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.~~ 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 the correlating adjustment to the purchase price multiple.We follow an established process to evaluate ERC.During the first ~~year~~years following purchase, we typically do not ~~allow~~increase our purchase price ~~multiples to expand.

Thus, all factors being equal in terms of pricing, one would typically tend to see a higher collection to purchase price ratio from a pool of accounts that was six years from acquisition than a pool that was just two years from acquisition.

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 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.

Seasonality

Customer payment patterns in all of the countries in which we operate can be affected by seasonal employment trends, income tax refunds, and holiday spending habits. Typically cash collections in the Americas tend to be higher in the first half of the year due to the high volume of income tax refunds received by individuals in the U.S., and trend lower as the year progresses. In the first quarter of 2023 and the first half of 2022, this ~~spike~~seasonal trend was not as pronounced. Additionally, 2021 ~~and 2020~~ deviated from usual seasonal patterns due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. ~~Customer payment patterns in all of the countries in which we operate can be affected by seasonal employment trends, income tax refunds, and holiday spending habits.~~

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

We report our financial results in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). However, our management uses certain non-GAAP financial measures, including adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization ("Adjusted EBITDA"), to evaluate our operating and financial performance as well as to set performance goals. 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 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;

•net income attributable to noncontrolling interests; and

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

The following table is a reconciliation of net income, as reported in accordance with GAAP, to Adjusted EBITDA for the last 12 months ("LTM") as of ~~June 30, 2022~~March 31, 2023 and for the year ended December 31, ~~2021~~2022 (amounts in thousands):

(1) Available borrowings after calculation of current borrowing base and debt covenants as of ~~June 30, 2022.~~March 31, 2023.

(2) Includes North American revolving credit facility and Colombian revolving credit facility.

~~In connection with~~On February 6, 2023, we completed the ~~refinancing~~private offering of $400.0 million in aggregate principal amount of our ~~European credit facilities, we entered~~8.375% Senior Notes due February 1, 2028 ("2028 Notes"). We deposited $345.0 million of the net proceeds from the offering into ~~the Eighth Amendment~~a newly-formed segregated deposit account, included in Restricted cash and ~~Restatement~~cash equivalents on our Consolidated Balance Sheets, and will use such proceeds to retire all or any portion of our 2023 Convertible Notes or to satisfy any other obligations with respect to our ~~European Credit Agreement that, among other things, extended~~2023 Convertible Notes. We used the ~~term~~remainder of the ~~agreement for one year~~net proceeds from the offering to ~~February 19, 2024 and decreased aggregate borrowing commitments by $600.0 million. Additionally, we entered into~~repay a ~~new $800.0 million UK~~portion of our outstanding borrowings under our North American revolving credit facility. ~~For more information on our refinancing, refer to our Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report.~~

Interest-bearing deposits. Per the terms of our European credit facility, we are permitted to obtain interest-bearing deposit funding of up to SEK 1.2 billion ~~(approximately $117.1 million~~(approximately $115.8 million as of ~~June 30, 2022)~~March 31, 2023). Interest-bearing deposits as of ~~June 30, 2022 were $114.4~~March 31, 2023 were $108.8 million.

Furthermore, we have the ability to slow the purchase of nonperforming loans if necessary, and use the net cash flow generated from our cash collections from our portfolio of existing nonperforming loans to temporarily service our debt and fund existing operations. For example, we invested ~~$972.3~~$850.0 million in portfolio acquisitions in ~~2021.~~2022. The portfolios acquired in ~~2021~~2022 generated ~~$143.3~~$109.4 million of cash collections, representing only ~~7.0%~~6.3% of ~~2021~~2022 cash collections.

Uses of Liquidity and Material Cash Requirements

Forward Flows. Contractual obligations over the next year are primarily related to portfolio purchase commitments. As of ~~June 30, 2022,~~March 31, 2023, we have forward flow commitments in place for the purchase of nonperforming loans with a maximum purchase ~~price~~price of ~~$960.2~~$622.4 million, of which ~~$815.1~~$576.3 million is due within the next 12 months. The ~~$960.2~~$622.4 million is comprised of ~~$300.9~~$344.6 million for the Americas and Australia and ~~$659.3~~$277.8 million for Europe. We may also enter into new or renewed forward flow commitments and close on spot transactions in addition to the aforementioned forward flow agreements.

Borrowings. Of our ~~$2.5~~$2.9 billion ~~borrowings~~borrowings at ~~June 30, 2022,~~March 31, 2023, estimated interest, unused fees and principal payments for the next 12 months are ~~approximately $468.0~~approximately $516.8 million, of ~~which,~~which, $355.3 million ~~relates~~relates to principal, primarily reflecting our Convertible Senior Notes due 2023. Beyond 12 months our principal payment obligations related to debt maturities occur ~~between~~between one and seven years.

Many of our financing arrangements include restrictive covenants with which we must ~~comply. As~~comply including a covenant that requires us to maintain positive consolidated income from operations during any fiscal quarter. We incurred a net loss from operations of ~~June 30, 2022,~~$33.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023. We requested and were granted a one-time prospective waiver by lenders under each of our credit facilities prior to the date we ~~determined that~~were required to report and certify compliance with the covenant requiring us to maintain positive consolidated income from operations. The effect of granting the waiver prior to certification date for such compliance resulted in us maintaining compliance with the applicable financial covenants of our credit facilities as of March 31, 2023. Following the receipt of the covenant waiver on May 5, 2023, we were in compliance with ~~these covenants.~~the remaining applicable financial covenants of our financing arrangements as of March 31, 2023. For more information, see Note 6 to our Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part I,1, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report.

Share Repurchases. On February 25, 2022, we completed our $230.0 million share repurchase program. Also on February 25, 2022, our Board of Directors approved a new share repurchase program under which we are authorized to repurchase up to $150.0 million of our outstanding common stock. 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. The new 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. During the three months ended ~~June 30, 2022,~~March 31, 2023, we ~~repurchased 808,328~~did not repurchase any shares of our common ~~stock for approximately $34.9 million. During the six months ended June 30, 2022 we repurchased 1,668,359 shares of our common~~

~~stock for approximately $74.4 million.~~stock. As of ~~June 30, 2022,~~March 31, 2023, we had ~~$92.7~~$67.7 million remaining for share repurchases under the new program. For more information, see Item 2 included in Part II of this Quarterly Report.

Leases. The majority of our leases have remaining lease terms of one to 1514 years. As of ~~June 30, 2022,~~March 31, 2023, we had ~~$60.7~~$57.9 million in lease liabilities, of which ~~approximately $10.0~~approximately $10.5 million ~~matures~~matures within the next 12 months. For more information, see Note 5 to our Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report.

~~Employment Agreements~~Derivatives. ~~We have~~Derivative financial instruments are entered into ~~employment agreements with certain executive officers for approximately $10.2~~to reduce our exposure to fluctuations in interest rates on variable rate debt and foreign currency exchange rates. As of March 31, 2023, we had $10.1 million of derivative liabilities, all of which ~~$6.8 million is payable if executed~~mature within the next 12 months. Our U.S. executive officer agreements mature in December 2023, while executive officer agreements entered into outside of the U.S. are pursuant to local country regulations and typically do not have expiration dates. For more information, see Note 12 7 to our Consolidated Financial Statements included in ~~Part I,~~ Item 18 of this Quarterly Report.

We believe that funds generated from operations and from 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. We may seek to access the debt or equity capital markets as we deem appropriate, market conditions permitting. Business acquisitions or higher than expected levels of portfolio purchasing could require additional financing from other sources.

Cash Flows Analysis

The following table summarizes our cash flow activity for the ~~six~~three months ended ~~June 30, 2022~~March 31, 2023 compared to the ~~six~~three months ended ~~June 30, 2021~~March 31, 2022 (amounts in thousands):

Operating Activities

Cash ~~provided by~~used in operating activities mainly reflects cash collections recognized as revenue ~~partially offset by~~and cash paid for operating expenses, interest and income taxes. ~~Key drivers of~~To calculate cash used in operating activities, ~~were~~net (loss)/income was adjusted for (i) non-cash items included in net income such as provisions for unrealized gains and losses, 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 of ~~$41.8~~$47.5 million for the ~~six~~three months ended ~~June 30, 2022, decreased $63.4~~March 31, 2023 increased $24.8 million from net cash ~~provided by~~used in operating activities of ~~$21.6~~$22.7 million for ~~six~~the three months ended ~~June 30, 2021.~~March 31, 2022. The change was mainly driven by lower cash collections recognized as portfolio income ~~and lower cash paid for income taxes~~ and the impact of foreign exchange.

Investing Activities

Cash provided by investing activities mainly reflects recoveries applied to our negative allowance. Cash used in investing activities mainly reflects ~~purchases~~acquisitions of nonperforming ~~loans.~~loans and net investment activity.

~~Cash~~Net cash provided by investing activities decreased ~~$93.7~~$117.4 million during the ~~six~~three months ended ~~June 30, 2022,~~March 31, 2023, primarily driven by an increase of $71.6 million in purchases of finance receivables, an increase of $58.5 million in purchases of investments and a decrease of ~~$121.8~~$52.6 million in recoveries applied to negative ~~allowance and a decrease~~allowance. These items were partially offset by an increase of ~~$30.4~~$62.0 million in proceeds from sales and maturities of investments. ~~The decrease was partially offset by a decrease of $61.4 million in purchases of investments reflecting the prior year purchase of additional government securities.~~

Financing Activities

Cash provided by financing activities is normally provided by draws on our lines of credit and proceeds from debt offerings. Cash used in financing activities is primarily driven by principal payments on our lines of credit and long-term debt.

~~Cash used in~~Net cash provided by financing activities ~~decreased $191.2~~increased $538.5 million during the ~~six~~three months ended ~~June 30, 2022,~~March 31, 2023, primarily driven by the proceeds from the issuance of our 2028 Notes of $400.0 million, a ~~decrease of $272.1~~$92.4 million inchange from net payments on our lines of ~~credit. The~~credit in the prior year quarter to net draws on our lines of credit in the current year quarter and a decrease ~~was partially offset by~~in our ~~$86.4 million~~purchases of ~~repurchases of our~~ common stock ~~during the six months ended June 30, 2022.~~of $48.7 million.

Undistributed Earnings of International Subsidiaries

We intend to use predominantly all of our accumulated and future undistributed earnings of international subsidiaries to expand operations outside the U.S.; therefore, such undistributed earnings of international subsidiaries are considered to be indefinitely reinvested outside the U.S. Accordingly, no provision for income tax and withholding tax has been provided thereon. If management's intentions change and eligible undistributed earnings of international subsidiaries are repatriated, we could be subject to additional income taxes and withholding taxes. This could result in a higher effective tax rate in the period in which such a decision is made to repatriate accumulated or future undistributed international earnings. The amount of cash on hand related to international operations with indefinitely reinvested earnings was ~~$54.0~~$88.4 million and ~~$61.9~~$75.3 million as of ~~June 30, 2022~~March 31, 2023 and December 31, ~~2021,~~2022, respectively. Refer to Note 11 to our Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report for further information related to our income taxes and undistributed international earnings.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

For a summary of recent accounting pronouncements and the anticipated effects on our Consolidated Financial Statements see Note 13 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, refer to Note 1 to our Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 8 of our ~~2021 Annual Report on~~2022 Form 10-K.

We consider accounting estimates to be critical if (1) the accounting estimates made involve a significant level of estimation uncertainty and (2) ~~has~~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:

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 ~~future~~ cash ~~flows and economic lives of~~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 ~~flows)~~collections). We then ~~re-forecast future cash flows by applying~~project ERC and then apply a discounted cash flow methodology to our ERC.

~~During 2021, we made assumptions that the majority of cash collections overperformance was due~~ Adjustments to ~~acceleration of future collections rather than an increase to total expected collections. Therefore, we adjusted the next three to six month forecast to reflect~~ERC may include adjustments reflecting recent collection trends, ~~from actual results with corresponding reductions to the~~our view of current and future economic conditions, changes in collection ~~forecast later in the forecast period. During~~assumptions or other timing related adjustments that could impact TEC. In the first ~~half of 2022, this assumption remained relatively consistent, particularly with our more recent pools. In the second~~ quarter of ~~2022,~~2023, we assessed certain ~~older~~ pools, where ~~continued strong~~lower levels of performance ~~has~~occurred due to a softer tax season than anticipated in the U.S. coupled with a more normalized collection environment globally. The reduced performance levels in the first quarter resulted in ~~an increase~~write downs to our ~~forecasted ERC.~~ERC primarily in the U.S. Core portfolio.

Significant changes in ~~such~~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 ~~reduce~~ estimated cash forecasts for ~~overperformance~~performance experienced in the current period result in ~~a negative~~an adjustment to revenue at an amount less than the impact of the overperformance due to the effects of discounting. Additionally, cash ~~flow~~collection forecast increases will generally result in more revenue being ~~recognized.~~recognized and cash collection forecast decreases will generally result in less revenue being recognized over the life of the pool. As we continue to perform against expectations, performance may vary,

which could result in additional adjustments to our cash flow forecasts with a corresponding adjustment to total portfolio revenue.

Income Taxes

We are subject to income taxes throughout 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 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 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 to earnings the impact 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 included in Item 8 of our ~~2021 Annual Report on~~2022 Form 10-K.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Our activities are subject to various financial risks, including market risk, currency and interest rate risk, credit risk, liquidity risk and cash flow risk. Our financial risk management program focuses on the unpredictability of financial markets and seeks to minimize potential adverse effects on our financial performance. We may periodically enter into derivative financial instruments, typically interest rate and currency derivatives, to reduce our exposure to fluctuations in interest rates on ~~variable-rate~~variable rate debt, fluctuations in currency rates and their impact on earnings and cash flows. 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 associated with these instruments as these transactions were executed with a diversified group of major financial institutions with an investment-grade credit rating. Our intention is to spread our counterparty credit risk across a number of counterparties so that exposure to a single counterparty is minimized.

Interest Rate Risk

We are subject to interest rate risk from outstanding borrowings on our variable rate credit facilities. As such, our consolidated financial results are subject to fluctuations due to changes in the market rate of interest. 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 ~~approximately $1.5~~approximately $1.6 billion as ~~of June 30, 2022.~~of March 31, 2023. Based on our debt structure at ~~June 30, 2022,~~March 31, 2023, assuming a 50 ~~basis~~basis point decrease in interest rates, for example, interest expense over the following 12 months would decrease by an estimated ~~$3.8~~$4.3 million. Assuming a 50 basis point increase in interest rates, interest expense over the following 12 months would increase by an estimated ~~$4.1~~$4.3 million.

To reduce the exposure to changes in the market rate of interest and to be in compliance with the terms of our European and our UK revolving credit facilities, we have entered into interest rate derivative contracts for a portion of our borrowings under our floating rate financing arrangements. As of ~~June 30, 2022,~~March 31, 2023, we are ~~66%~~68% hedged on a notional ~~basis and nearly 100% hedged in the U.S. dollar.~~basis. We apply hedge accounting to certain of our interest rate derivative contracts. By applying hedge accounting, changes in market value are reflected as adjustments in Other ~~Comprehensive (Loss)~~comprehensive (loss)/~~Income.~~income. All derivatives to which we ~~have~~have applied hedge accounting were evaluated and remained highly effective at ~~June 30, 2022.~~March 31, 2023. Terms of the interest rate derivative contracts require us to receive a variable interest rate and pay a fixed interest rate. The sensitivity calculations above consider the impact of our interest rate derivative contracts and zero interest rate floors on revolving loans under our North America, UK and European credit facilities.

Currency Exchange Risk

We operate internationally and enter into transactions denominated in various foreign currencies. During the three months ended ~~June 30, 2022,~~March 31, 2023, we ~~generated $121.4~~generated $96.3 million of ~~revenues~~revenues from operations outside the U.S. and used 12 functional currencies, excluding the U.S. dollar. Weakness in one particular currency might be offset by strength in other currencies over time.

As a result of our international operations, 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 re-measurement of transactions in certain 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 (loss)/income 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 such that portfolio ownership and collections generally occur within the same entity. Our UK and European 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.

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 ~~June 30, 2022,~~March 31, 2023, 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 ~~June 30, 2022~~March 31, 2023 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
