NEW YORK, Feb. 22, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Medallion Financial Corp. (NASDAQ: MFIN, “Medallion” or the “Company”), a specialty finance company that originates and services loans in various consumer and commercial industries, along with offering loan origination services to fintech strategic partners, announced today its results for the quarter and full-year ended December 31, 2022.
2022 Fourth Quarter Highlights
2022 Full-Year Highlights
Executive Commentary – Andrew Murstein, President of Medallion
“Driven by the continued growth of our loan portfolio, we generated the highest level of net interest income in our 25-plus year history as a public company. Our bottom-line performance remained strong, especially given the normalization of our loan loss provision during the year. This performance enabled us to pay shareholders $0.32 per share in dividends and buy back more than $20 million of our stock, reinforcing our commitment to our shareholders. We believe that our business is positioned to continue to drive shareholder value and help us navigate the current macro environment.”

Current Expected Credit Loss (CECL) Adoption
On January 1, 2023, the Company adopted the Current Expected Credit Loss accounting standard (Topic 326), otherwise known as CECL. Our initial calculation of the CECL transition amount as of that date was an $11.6 million increase in our allowance for loan losses, or allowance for credit losses as it is called under CECL, for consumer loans and a $2.2 million increase with respect to our commercial loans. The medallion loan allowance was not affected. With the adoption of CECL, we expect that there will be earlier recognition of credit losses, including a near-term effect of larger loan loss provisions, compared to the previous incurred losses accounting standard.
Conference Call Information
The Company will host a conference call to discuss its fourth quarter and full-year financial results tomorrow, Thursday, February 23, 2023, at 9:00 a.m. Eastern time.
As part of its earnings release, the Company has updated its quarterly supplement presentation, which is now available at www.medallion.com.
