Revenue Analysis
Total and Operating Revenue: OMF has shown a consistent increase in total and operating revenue over the periods. From 2023-03-31 to 2024-03-31, the revenue increased from $1,032,000,000 to $1,076,000,000. This demonstrates a growth trajectory, indicating an expanding business operation.
Gross Profit Margin: While direct figures for gross profit aren’t provided, increasing revenues with steady administration expenses imply an improving gross margin.
Cost Management
Operating Expense: General and administrative expenses remained fairly consistent, around the $250 million to $275 million range across the reviewed periods, indicating good control over fixed operational costs.
Total Expenses: Total operational expenses need to be inferred from other line items like salaries, and administrative expenses, however, given stable revenue growth, the proportional expense seems managed.
Profitability Analysis
EBITDA and Operating Income: Direct EBITDA is not provided, but proxies like ‘Pretax Income’ which grew from $235,000,000 in 2023-03-31 to $204,000,000 in 2024-03-31, suggest variability in operational profitability.
Pretax Income: Pretax income shows fluctuations but a general increase towards the latter dates, suggesting growing operational efficiency or possibly reduced tax expenses.
Net Income Metrics: Net income has been relatively stable, peaking in 2023-09-30 at $194,000,000 and was at $155,000,000 as of 2024-03-31.
Cash Flow Indicators
Reconciled Depreciation: Depreciation expenses are steady, meaning consistent capital expenditure and no significant change in depreciation policy.
Interest Expense: Interest expenses have been quite stable, decreasing slightly indicating either better debt management or reductions in principal debt amounts.
Taxation
Tax Rate and Provision: The effective tax rate fluctuated slightly but remained around 23-25%. The tax provision increased over the observed periods, correlating with the increased pretax income.
Tax Effect of Unusual Items: Minimal impact noticed from unusual items, suggesting stable taxation circumstances.
Shareholder Metrics
Diluted and Basic EPS: Both diluted and basic EPS saw increases, particularly noticeable in the drop in 2023-06-30 and then an increase towards 2024. This might reflect the adjustments in net income and shares outstanding over periods.
Average Shares: The number of shares has remained relatively stable, with minor increments. This stability in shares outstanding helps in maintaining shareholder value without dilution.
Net Income Available to Common Stockholders: This metric has remained steady, providing a reliable return to shareholders.
Conclusion
OMF appears to be on a stable growth path with managed costs, consistent profit levels, and effective tax management. Continued vigilance on expense management and maintaining operational efficiency should be a focus to sustain and enhance profitability. Recommendations include exploring avenues for reducing interest expenses further and maximizing operational efficiencies.
