(“goeasy” or the “Company”), one of Canada’s leading non-prime consumer lenders, announced today that it has surpassed a $2 billion consumer loan portfolio.

The Company began consumer lending in 2006 with the launch of its easyfinancial division, after opening the first test kiosk at an easyhome leasing store in Edmonton, Alberta. goeasy has since grown to become one of the country’s largest non-prime consumer lenders, with over 400 locations coast-to-coast, a fully digital lending platform and point-of-sale financing offered in the retail, power sports, automotive, home improvement and healthcare verticals, through more than 4,000 merchants across Canada. The lending division has proudly served nearly 750,000 Canadians, with 1 out of 3 graduating back to prime credit and over 60% improving their credit score within 12 months of borrowing.

“While it took nearly 13 years to reach the first $1 billion in 2019, we are proud to have doubled the business, reaching $2 billion in consumer loans within two and a half years,” said Jason Mullins, goeasy’s President & CEO, “Achieved through a combination of strong organic growth and the strategic acquisition of LendCare earlier this year, this milestone reflects the strength and resiliency of our business model, the passion of our 2,200 team members to support our customers, and the benefits of scale, supported by a balance sheet and forward liquidity to fund growth through 2023,” Mr. Mullins continued, “We also continue to see improving consumer demand, while the benefits of our product and channel diversification are helping to produce record originations. We are now confident we will exceed the high-end of our growth outlook for the fourth quarter, adding over $110 million to the consumer loan portfolio.”

goeasy continues to pursue a long-term strategy that includes expanding its product range, developing its channels of distribution, broadening the geography in which it operates, and improving the financial wellness of its customers, by helping them improve their credit score and graduate back to prime. The company remains well positioned to achieve its long-term growth objectives, including a consumer loan portfolio of between $2.8 billion and $3.0 billion by the end of 2023.
