IRVINE, California, February 4, 2013 (GlobeNewswire) -- Consumer Portfolio Services, Inc. (Nasdaq: CPSS) (“CPS” or the “Company”) today announced earnings of $64.8 million, or $2.20 per diluted share, for its fourth quarter ended December 31, 2012. This includes an income tax benefit of $60.2 million, or $2.04 per diluted share, related to the reversal of a valuation allowance against the Company’s deferred tax asset net of current period income tax expense. This compares to net income of $235,000, or $0.01 per diluted share, in the fourth quarter of 2011. Net income for 2012 was $69.4 million, or $2.72 per diluted share, as compared to a net loss of $14.5 million, or $0.76 per diluted share, for 2011. The 2012 results include an income tax benefit of $60.2 million, or $2.36 per diluted share, related to the reversal of a valuation allowance against the Company’s deferred tax asset net of current period income tax expense.
Revenues for the fourth quarter of 2012 were $50.6 million, an increase of approximately $4.9 million, or 11%, compared to $45.8 million for the fourth quarter of 2011. Total operating expenses for the fourth quarter of 2012 were $46.0 million, an increase of $480,000, or 1%, compared to $45.5 million for the 2011 period. Pretax income for the fourth quarter of 2012 was $4.6 million compared to pretax income of $235,000 in the fourth quarter of 2011.
For the year ended December 31, 2012 total revenues were $187.2 million compared to $143.1 million for 2011, an increase of approximately $44.1 million, or 31%. Total expenses for the year ended December 31, 2012 were $178.0 million, an increase of $20.4 million, or 13%, compared to $157.6 million for 2011. Pretax income for the year ended December 31, 2012 was $9.2 million, compared to a pretax loss of $14.5 million for 2011.
During the fourth quarter of 2012, CPS purchased $150.8 million of new contracts compared to $143.1 million during the third quarter of 2012 and $92.2 million during the fourth quarter of 2011. The Company's managed receivables totaled $897.6 million as of December 31, 2012, an increase from $844.9 million as of September 30, 2012 and $794.6 million as of December 31, 2011, as follows ($ in millions):

Annualized net charge-offs for 2012 were 3.61% of the average owned portfolio as compared to 4.79% for 2011. Delinquencies greater than 30 days (including repossession inventory) were 5.6% of the total owned portfolio as of December 31, 2012, as compared to 6.0% as of December 31, 2011.
As previously reported, during December CPS closed its fourth term securitization transaction of 2012 and the seventh transaction since April 2011. In the senior subordinate structure, a special purpose subsidiary sold five tranches of asset-backed notes totaling $160.0 million. The notes are secured by automobile receivables purchased by CPS and have a weighted average effective coupon of approximately 2.05%. The transaction has initial credit enhancement consisting of a cash deposit equal to 1.00% of the original receivable pool balance. The final enhancement level requires accelerated payment of principal on the notes to reach overcollateralization of 11.50% of the then-outstanding receivable pool balance.
"2012 was a very good year for us," said Charles E. Bradley, Jr., Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. "The comeback plans that we set in motion three years ago are now resulting in significant earnings growth. From an operational standpoint, our managed portfolio is once again growing meaningfully. We have achieved this growth while maintaining attractive yields and credit demographics on our new contract purchases. And asset performance metrics of our newer vintages continue to be strong. From a financial perspective, we are now at a point where revenue growth is greatly exceeding expense growth, demonstrating the operating leverage inherent in our business model. These trends bode well for our future profitability.”
Conference Call
CPS announced that it will hold a conference call on Tuesday, February 5, 2013, at 1:00 p.m. ET to discuss its quarterly operating results. Those wishing to participate by telephone may dial-in at 877 312-5502 or 253 237-1131 approximately 10 minutes prior to the scheduled time.
A replay of the conference call will be available between February 5, 2013 and February 11, 2013, beginning two hours after conclusion of the call, by dialing 855 859-2056 or 404 537-3406 for international participants, with conference identification number 96024567. A broadcast of the conference call will also be available live and for 90 days after the call via the Company’s web site at www.consumerportfolio.com.

Forward-looking statements in this news release include the Company's recorded revenue, expense and provision for credit losses, because these items are dependent on the Company’s estimates of incurred losses. The accuracy of such estimates may be adversely affected by various factors, which include (in addition to risks relating to the economy generally) the following: possible increased delinquencies; repossessions and losses on retail installment contracts; incorrect prepayment speed and/or discount rate assumptions; possible unavailability of qualified personnel, which could adversely affect the Company’s ability to service its portfolio; possible increases in the rate of consumer bankruptcy filings, which could adversely affect the Company’s rights to collect payments from its portfolio; other changes in government regulations affecting consumer credit; possible declines in the market price

for used vehicles, which could adversely affect the Company’s realization upon repossessed vehicles; and economic conditions in geographic areas in which the Company's business is concentrated. All of such factors also may affect the Company’s future financial results, as to which there can be no assurance. Any implication that the results of the most recently completed quarter are indicative of future results is disclaimed, and the reader should draw no such inference. Factors such as those identified above in relation to the provision for credit losses may affect future performance.
