QC Holdings, Inc. Reports 2016 Results
OVERLAND PARK, Kan., March 31, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- QC Holdings, Inc. (OTC PINK:QCCO) reported a net loss of $16.8 million and revenues of $117.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2016. Net loss totaled $1.0 million and revenues totaled $135.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2015.
The year ended December 31, 2016 includes charges of: i) $2.7 million due to a loan loss reserve for a business-to-business receivable; ii) $1.6 million related to recording additional loan loss reserve, severance and lease liability costs as part of the closure of the company’s branches in Washington, South Carolina and Virginia during the second half of 2016; and iii) $800,000 in severance and other costs. In addition, due to the net operating losses incurred for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2016, the company has determined that it has not met the accounting requirements that would indicate that available loss carry-forwards and deferred tax assets will be recognized in the future. Accordingly, a valuation allowance of $8.5 million has been established at December 31, 2016, which resulted in a net tax charge for 2016.
The year ended December 31, 2015 includes $1.5 million (approximately $900,000 net of income taxes) in accrued costs associated with a tentative settlement of an outstanding legal matter.
The decline in revenues during 2016 compared to 2015 reflects lower interest and fees from the company’s consumer loan products due to competitive pressures as customers explore alternative loan products and distribution channels. In addition, revenues were affected by the third quarter 2016 store swap transaction, whereby the company acquired 33 branches operated in Illinois, Kansas, Missouri and Utah and sold its 98 branches operated in Alabama, Arizona, California, Mississippi and Ohio. Loan loss rates were higher in 2016 versus 2015 as a result of the business-to-business loan reserve, the additional loan loss reserve associated with the closed branches and an increase in losses during the transition and integration of the branches acquired in the store swap.
