Amigo Holdings PLC

("Amigo" or the "Company")

AGM Statement

Amigo, the leading provider of guarantor loans in the UK, will hold its Annual General Meeting today. At the meeting, Roger Lovering, Acting Chair, will make the following statement:

"Trading since the end of the first quarter of the financial year has been in line with management expectations. As at the end of August, we had approximately 41,000 customers on Covid-19 related payment holidays with 9,000 customers having returned to making regular payments and over 3,000 having repaid their loan in full. Early signs of those exiting payment holidays are encouraging, with no notable deterioration in arrears.

"Cash collection remains robust at over 80% of pre-Covid-19 expectations, as at 31 August 2020. This includes the early settlement of some customer loans. We have unrestricted cash of over £145m, as at 31 August, and adequate liquidity to continue to fund operations and support our customers. Net debt has reduced by £29m in the two months to 31 August with securitisation borrowings reducing to £192m and senior secured notes remaining at £234m.

"We have not seen a material change in Complaint volumes, which have remained volatile over August and September. However, we continue to make progress with our handling of these complaint volumes. We are preparing to restart lending on a prudent basis by the end of 2020. We have adequate liquidity and funding to support our return to lending and have made a number of updates to our processes to reflect the current regulatory environment.

We are pleased to announce that Gary Jennison will take up the role of Chief Executive Officer (CEO) with immediate effect following confirmation that the FCA are content for Mr Jennison to assume the CEO functions pending consideration of his full application for authorisation. Gary Jennison is a proven executive with a history of having worked in regulated financial services businesses and leading them through times of change. He has the necessary commitment, skills and experience to lead Amigo forward in the next chapter of its development.

"The whole team at Amigo is focused on addressing our legacy issues and building a sustainable business for the long term. Our business model serves a purpose in providing financial inclusion to those who are unable to access finance through mainstream lenders. This is likely to become ever more relevant as the country recovers from the economic impact of Covid-19."

A further update will be given with our Half Year results at the end of November.
