“Although the consistent excellent portfolio performance is great, we are even more encouraged by our ability to once again increase our Indirect contract originations on a year over year basis for the third quarter in a row,” commented Doug Marohn, President and CEO of Nicholas Financial, Inc. “We have also been able to do the same on Direct Loan production, only on a significantly larger scale. Our continued ability to increase both Indirect and Direct origination volume has been a key factor in reducing our portfolio liquidation as we look toward receivable growth in fiscal year 2022 and beyond.”

“Additionally, our branch expansion efforts continued in the second quarter with the opening of our latest brick and mortar office in Houston, TX,” Marohn went on to say. “Houston represents our 47th operational branch and signifies our re-entry into Texas with a physical local office. We are continuing our expansion efforts as we develop the Dallas/Ft. Worth and San Antonio markets in Texas, as well as the Phoenix market in Arizona."

”Nicholas Financial, Inc. also celebrated the grand opening of our Central Business Operations facility in Charlotte, NC during the 2nd Fiscal Quarter. This center is home to our training, recruiting, expansion, branch operations, direct consumer loan and other related departments. It exemplifies our commitment to reinvesting in our personnel through training, development and technology,” concluded Doug Marohn.
