Eran Wolf, CEO of Direct Finance, said: “We are concluding a record year in the company’s results and a strong quarter. We continued to implement the Company’s growth strategy as can be seen in the increase in the volume of loans made, in the volume of the loan portfolio held by the Company and in the jump in net profit. The good results were affected, among other things, by strong demand for vehicles and car loans, and an improvement in the discount rate of the company’s loan portfolios, which were converted to third parties. The company’s low leverage ratios allow us to leave a higher-volume loan portfolio on the balance sheet and reduce the rate of check transactions from revenue and thus improve profitability. Carstock activity continues to grow and we recently completed the acquisition of Otto Magazine. We are working to establish a significant “Market Place” that will include extensive information in the field of vehicles and will be an attraction for those looking for a new and used vehicle. We will continue to work to implement our strategic plan, which includes a continued increase in the provision of car loans, as well as a significant entry into the mortgage field in the coming years. “
