Insights

Credit Acceptance's completion of this $400 million asset-backed financing represents a strategic liquidity management move with positive implications for the company's balance sheet flexibility. The non-recourse structure effectively transfers risk while allowing CACC to monetize $500.2 million worth of consumer loans.

The 5.6% annualized cost appears reasonable in the current interest rate environment, particularly for a subprime auto lender. The 24-month revolving period provides operational runway before amortization begins, creating a predictable funding timeline that supports business planning.

This transaction demonstrates CACC's continued access to capital markets and investor confidence in its loan underwriting methodology. The company's ability to secure this financing strengthens its position to maintain its specialized lending model that serves credit-challenged consumers.

The dual-purpose allocation toward debt repayment and general corporate purposes indicates disciplined capital management while maintaining operational flexibility. For a company focused on subprime auto lending, regular access to securitization markets is essential for sustainable operations, making this transaction a fundamental component of CACC's business model rather than an exceptional event.

The 4% servicing fee arrangement creates an ongoing revenue stream while the remaining 96% services the financing, creating a structure that should be accretive to the company's operations after accounting for the debt being replaced.

Southfield, Michigan, March 27, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Credit Acceptance Corporation (Nasdaq: CACC) (the “Company”, “Credit Acceptance”, “we”, “our”, or “us”) announced today the completion of a $400.0 million asset-backed non-recourse secured financing (the “Financing”). Pursuant to this transaction, we conveyed loans having a value of approximately $500.2 million to a wholly owned special purpose entity which will transfer the loans to a trust, which will issue three classes of notes:

  • be used by us to repay outstanding indebtedness and for general corporate purposes.

We will receive 4.0% of the cash flows related to the underlying consumer loans to cover servicing expenses. The remaining 96.0%, less amounts due to dealers for payments of dealer holdback, will be used to pay principal and interest on the notes as well as the ongoing costs of the Financing. The Financing is structured so as not to affect our contractual relationships with dealers and to preserve the dealers’ rights to future payments of dealer holdback.

The notes have not been and will not be registered under the Securities Act of 1933 and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from registration requirements. This news release does not and will not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy the notes.

Description of Credit Acceptance Corporation

We make vehicle ownership possible by providing innovative financing solutions that enable automobile dealers to sell vehicles to consumers regardless of their credit history. Our financing programs are offered through a nationwide network of automobile dealers who benefit from sales of vehicles to consumers who otherwise could not obtain financing; from repeat and referral sales generated by these same customers; and from sales to customers responding to advertisements for our financing programs, but who actually end up qualifying for traditional financing.

Without our financing programs, consumers are often unable to purchase vehicles or they purchase unreliable ones. Further, as we report to the three national credit reporting agencies, an important ancillary benefit of our programs is that we provide consumers with an opportunity to improve their lives by improving their credit score and move on to more traditional sources of financing. Credit Acceptance is publicly traded on the Nasdaq stock market under the symbol CACC.  For more information, visit creditacceptance.com.
