Profit & Loss

Typical Average P & L

This Profit and Loss Statement offers a 12-month overview of an average car title loan portfolio, representing a performance level that is neither exceptional nor poor.

Your results will vary significantly depending on the state[s] you serve, your choice between a storefront, online, or blended business model, and the variety of loan products offered, such as cash advances, car title loans, payday loans, and installment loans.

Your profitability hinges on the proportion of new versus returning borrowers, the sophistication of your customer acquisition strategies, and the effectiveness of your marketing channels, whether direct mail, social media, TV, radio advertising, referral programs, etc.

Additionally, the age and maturity of your business, along with your ability to leverage cutting-edge technology, are critical factors for success.

While no two portfolios are the same, the insights provided in this P&L statement serve as a foundation for developing a profitable car title lending operation..
