Financial overview
Equity research
Alisa Bank intends to sell the majority of its consumer loan portfolio. Proceeds should reasonably be used to accelerate business lending growth, organically and inorganically, to fill the gap from lost income.
Alisa Bank announced a collaboration with Nordea, to provide financing services for its entrepreneur clients. The collaboration is in our view significant through the credibility gained and growth of addressable market.
Alisa Bank’s H1 was slightly weaker than expected. We remain cautious on near-term development but note good profitability potential should market conditions improve and growth investments yield more results.
Alisa Bank issued a profit warning, with continued weaker demand driving lower volumes. 2025 PTP excl. NRI’s is expected to be negative, a notable decrease from the bank’s previous expectations.
Alisa Bank’s H2 was in line with our expectations on profitability while growth was more constrained than anticipated by loan volume declines in H2. Earnings are seen to increase notably in 2025, but the volume outlook remains on the cautionary side.
Alisa Bank’s H2 financials corresponded to our expectations, although NII and subsequently total income fell slightly short. H2 saw the loan portfolio decline notably from H1. The adj. PTP as expected turned positive. Alisa Bank estimates that the bank’s operating result will continue to develop positively during 2025.
Alisa Bank reports its H2 results on February 14th. With the profit warning issued in December we keep our estimates intact. While heading into 2025 with somewhat cautious expectations, we still expect improvements in total income and profitability, with further upside from potential improvements in market conditions.
Alisa Bank issued a profit warning for 2024, lowering expectations for total income and profitability due to the prolonged market uncertainty.
Alisa Bank’s H1 results were weak, as expected, but gave further confirmation of the profit levels to be expected going forward after the combination with PURO Finance.
Alisa Bank’s H1 profitability was in line with our expectations, with PTP at EUR -2.0m (Evli EUR -2.1m), and the report brought with it no notable surprises.

Remuneration for the Members of the Board
Regarding the remuneration of the Board, the General Meeting decided that the fixed monthly fee of the Board Members is determined as an annual remuneration and paid once a year. The annual remuneration for the board members for the term ending at the conclusion of the 2027 Annual General Meeting is as follows: EUR 60,000 for the Chairman of the Board, EUR 48,000 for the Committee Chairs and EUR 38,400 for each other Board Member.
Approximately 40 percent of the annual fees will be paid in Alisa Bank Plc shares purchased from the market on behalf of the Board Members, or alternatively by handing over the company's own shares or issuing new shares. When transferring the company's own shares or issuing new shares, the share conversion rate is the weighted average price of the company's share exchange in Nasdaq Helsinki Oy for the period of five trading days after the publication of the company's half-year report 2026. The company is responsible for the costs and possible transfer tax arising from the acquisition, transfer or giving of the shares. The rest of the annual fee is paid in cash, which covers the taxes arising from the fee.
The shares will be acquired directly on behalf of the Board Members within two weeks after the company's 2026 half-year report is announced. The transfer of the company's own shares or the issuance of new shares takes place as soon as possible after the reward has been converted into shares. If the acquisition, transfer or giving of the shares cannot be carried out at the aforementioned time due to legal or other regulatory restrictions or for another reason related to the company or the Board Member, the shares will be acquired, transferred or given later or the annual remuneration will be paid in full in cash.
Authorisation of the Board of Directors to decide on acquisition of own shares
It was resolved, in accordance with the proposal of the Board of Directors, that the Board of Directors is authorised to decide on the acquisition of a maximum of 7 501 578 own shares in one or more installments with the company's free equity capital. The number of shares corresponds to approximately 5 percent of the Company's shares. The shares are acquired in a public trading organized by Nasdaq Helsinki Oy, other than in proportion to the shareholders' holdings, at the market price at the time of acquisition. The authorisation is valid until the end of the next Annual General Meeting, but no later than 30 June 2027. The authorisation can be used, for example, to implement possible business acquisitions and incentive systems for key personnel or for other purposes decided by the Board. The shares acquired on the basis of the authorisation can otherwise be further transferred, kept by the company or cancelled. The Board can decide on all other conditions for acquiring own shares. The company's previous authorisation for the purchase of its own shares expired at the Annual General Meeting on 19 March 2026.
Authorisation of the Board to decide on issuing shares and option rights and other special rights entitling to shares
It was resolved, in accordance with the proposal of the Board of Directors, that the Board of Directors is authorised to decide on the issue of shares and the issue of special rights entitling to shares referred to in Chapter 10, Section 1 of the Limited Liability Companies Act in one or more installments, either against payment or without payment.

The authorisation is to be used, for example, to pay the purchase prices of business transactions, to pay the incentive fee according to the incentive system for key personnel, or for other purposes decided by the Board. The authorisation also includes the right to decide whether the subscription price of the share will be fully or partially entered into the invested unrestricted equity fund or as a share capital increase. The authorisation is to be valid until the end of the next Annual General Meeting, but no later than 30 June 2027. The previous authorisation of the Board ended with the Annual General Meeting on 19 March 2026.

CEO’s review
Towards strategy-aligned growth
The past year fell clearly short of targets in terms of both the sales of financing products and the utilisation rate of invoice financing limits. Although business lending sales recovered in the second half of the year, total balance sheet income remained below target. In contrast, the development of deposit net interest income exceeded the target, supported by successful funding of business customers. The Bank’s costs developed as planned, and the implemented cost-saving measures will become more clearly visible in 2026. Depreciation for 2025 includes one-off write-downs of capitalised development costs related to the sale of the consumer lending business, which increased depreciation for the financial year by EUR 0.8 million.
We executed our strategy in a determined manner, focusing on banking services for SMEs and invoice financing. As part of this, we sold a significant portion of the consumer loan portfolio and discontinued the sale of almost all consumer-oriented products. The transaction resulted in a total one-off gain of EUR 2.4 million. At the same time, sales and marketing efforts were successfully strengthened to accelerate growth in business financing. The invoice financing cooperation agreement with Nordea, signed towards the end of the year, further supported the positive development in demand. Growth in business customer deposits continued, particularly through Banking-as-a-Service partner channels, although the overall deposit base was deliberately reduced in non-strategic channels.
Market environment and future development
Although some positive signs can be observed in demand for banking and financing services among SMEs, we do not expect the external operating environment to turn clearly more favourable in terms of demand for financing. Euribor rates are expected to remain close to current levels, supporting the assessment of a neutral macroeconomic impact on earnings.
The general cautiousness of the banking sector is expected to continue, which supports demand for Alisa Bank’s services in the current financial year. We expect the positive sales development of our products, which began in the summer of 2025, to continue, supported by an increased number of financial management software and banking partnerships, as well as our own sales and marketing efforts. At the same time, we are assessing opportunities for inorganic growth of the business financing balance sheet by utilising capacity released from consumer finance.
The Bank’s strong capital adequacy and liquidity position, together with a low average cost of funding, support our competitiveness in business financing. At the same time, the deposit margin is expected to continue to increase. The Bank’s strategic development priorities include invoice financing, the further development of business loan products, and the launch of Banking-as-a-Service partnerships in Sweden. Measures related to the renewal of business loan products and the development of the Swedish market will continue as planned.
The Bank will continue measures to strengthen the credit quality of the SME financing loan portfolio, with the objective of reducing the NPL ratio during the current year. Lowering funding costs and streamlining the operational cost structure are key priorities in improving risk-adjusted returns. Going forward, the development of operating profit will be materially dependent on the development of sales volumes.
Warm thanks to our personnel and customers for the past year.
Sampsa Laine
CEO
Outlook for 2026
In the current financial year, the focus of the Bank’s business, in line with its strategy, is on increasing financing volumes for SMEs and on making the Bank’s SME banking services available more broadly through the channels of our existing and new partners (Banking-as-a-Service). The gradual withdrawal from the consumer business – partly as a result of the loan portfolio sale already completed and partly as a result of future measures – will reduce the Bank’s income, expenses and credit losses in 2026.
The development of profitability and the strengthening of operating profit will going forward be materially dependent on the development of corporate financing volumes and the market environment. We estimate that the result before non-recurring items and taxes will be loss-making in the first half of the year. As business growth and structural transformation progress, the Bank’s profitability will improve, and a profitable result before non-recurring items and taxes is expected for the second half of the year.

ALISA BANK PLC STOCK EXCHANGE RELEASE 21.1.2026 AT 14.20 EET
Alisa Bank Plc announced on 31 October 2025 that it had signed a Receivable Purchase Agreement to sell approximately a 75 per cent share of its consumer customers’ loan portfolio to Bankaktiebolaget Nordiska (publ), Sweden, for a purchase price of EUR 51 million. The approval of the Swedish FSA (Finansinspektionen), which was a condition for the completion of the transaction, has now been obtained, and the transaction has been completed.
The transaction has a one-off positive impact of approximately EUR 2.4 million on Alisa Bank’s result for the financial year 2025. In addition, Alisa Bank recognises impairment losses on intangible assets related to the withdrawal from the consumer finance totalling EUR 0.8 million in the financial year 2025, which will have a one-off negative impact on the result.
Withdrawal from the consumer financing is part of the Company’s strategy, under which Alisa Bank will increasingly focus on financing small and medium-sized enterprises and on growing its own deposit base.

ALISA BANK PLC STOCK EXCHANGE RELEASE 19.1.2026 AT 16.20 EET
Proposal for the composition of the Board of Directors
The Shareholders’ Nomination Board proposes to the 2026 Annual General Meeting that the Board of Directors consists of six (6) members.
The Shareholders' Nomination Board also proposes that the present members of the Board of Directors Olli-Petteri Lehtinen, Johanna Lamminen, Karri Haaparinne, Peter Ramsay and Marjo Tomminen be re-elected and that Tuukka Koskinen be elected as new member to the Board for a term of office ending at the end of the next Annual General Meeting.
According to the proposal, the current members Sami Honkonen and Tero Weckroth will not continue as Board members after the Annual General Meeting.
The Shareholders' Nomination Board proposes to the Annual General Meeting that Olli-Petteri Lehtinen be elected as Chair of the Board and Johanna Lamminen as Vice Chair.
All candidates have given their consent to the election.
All proposed Board Members are assessed to be independent of the company. In addition, all proposed Board Members are assessed to be independent of the company's significant shareholders except for Peter Ramsay who is assessed as not being independent of the company´s significant shareholders.
More information of the Board Members that are proposed to be re-elected is available on the company's website www.alisabank.com/management. The CV of proposed new member is attached to this stock exchange release.
Proposal for remuneration of the Board
The Shareholders' Nomination Board’s proposal is that the Board's remuneration will be paid in company shares in accordance with the current policy.
The shareholders' Nomination Board proposes to the Annual General Meeting that the fixed monthly remuneration of the Board Members will be determined as an annual remuneration and paid once a year.
The Shareholders' Nomination Board proposes to the Annual General Meeting that the annual remuneration of the Board Members elected at the Annual General Meeting for the term of office, which ends at the end of the 2027 Annual General Meeting, remains unchanged, i.e. is as follows:
- EUR 60,000 for the Chairman of the Board
- EUR 48,000 for Vice Chairman and Committee Chairs (however, the fee is not paid twice, if the Chairman/Vice Chairman also serves as Committee Chair)
- EUR 38,400 for each other Board Member.
The Nomination Board proposes that approximately 40 percent of the annual fees be paid in Alisa Bank Plc shares purchased from the market on behalf of the Board Members, or alternatively by handing over the company's own shares or issuing new shares.
When transferring the company's own shares or issuing new shares, the share conversion rate is the weighted average price of the company's share exchange in Nasdaq Helsinki Oy for the period of five trading days after the publication of the company's half-year report 2026. The company is responsible for the costs and possible transfer tax arising from the acquisition, transfer or giving of the shares. The rest of the annual fee is paid in cash, which covers the taxes arising from the fee.
The shares will be acquired directly on behalf of the Board Members within two weeks after the company's 2026 half-year report is announced. The transfer of the company's own shares or the issuance of new shares takes place as soon as possible after the reward has been converted into shares. If the acquisition, transfer or giving of the shares cannot be carried out at the aforementioned time due to legal or other regulatory restrictions or for another reason related to the company or the Board Member, the shares will be acquired, transferred or given later or the annual remuneration will be paid in full in cash.

The Board of Directors of Alisa Bank Plc has decided to discontinue the company’s performance-based share incentive plan 2024–2028, which was established in August 2024 for the company’s management and key employees.

The Board of Directors has initiated the preparation of a new, replacement incentive scheme intended for the company’s management and key employees. One of the company’s key goals for 2026 is to strengthen profitable growth, and the renewed incentive model will be designed to support this development.

CEO’s review
The first half of 2025 was challenging for us on several fronts. Demand for financing from both consumers and businesses remained weak, and payment delays continued to increase. Utilization rates of invoice financing limits stayed below normal levels. During the first half of the year, we invested in larger-scale BaaS-partnerships (Banking-as-a-Service), which led to several positive business discussions. Supported by successful marketing efforts and increased sales activity, we managed to bring business financing sales closer to our target level in the second quarter.
Due to the weak start to the year, profit before non-recurring items and taxes was EUR -1.4 million. Towards the end of the period, business performance was supported by effective marketing, the renewal of sales management, and more risk-based pricing. Continued global challenges, together with operational headwinds in the SME sector, are likely to keep the outlook for the remainder of the year modest. Nevertheless, we have several reasons to believe that the growth of our business financing portfolio will continue into the autumn months at a pace similar to early summer.
Business development
The company’s operating income decreased by 3.9 percent in the first half of 2025 to EUR 7.4 million (7.7), driven by a decline in net interest income. Expenses increased by EUR 0.2 million due to the combination with PURO Finance, while credit losses fell by EUR 0.9 million, resulting in a EUR 0.4 million reduction in operating loss compared to the previous year.
In the personal customer segment, our loan portfolio decreased by 23 percent to EUR 78 million (12/2024: EUR 102 million). The main driver for this decline was our earlier strategic decision to discontinue the use of credit comparison websites as a sales channel and to focus new lending on the lower-risk portion of our existing customer base.
Despite a challenging operating environment, we succeeded in increasing the business financing loan portfolio by 1.8 percent in the first half of the year (6/2025: EUR 48.5 million, 12/2024: 47.6). The early-year increase in non-performing SME receivables was reversed, but due to the decrease in the loan portfolio and the decline in consumer financing, the relative share of payment delays developed less favorably than expected (NPL ratio increased to 4.9 percent from 4.8 percent at the end of the review period.). During the reporting period, we sold and wrote off inactive credit receivables. Nevertheless, the net credit loss trend remained downward and in line with our forecasts, with the balance sheet now healthier as a result of the measures taken. Following the update to our risk-based pricing, the risk level of new business financing sales is now lower than the bank’s current overall portfolio risk.
Our deposits stood at EUR 299 million (12/2024: EUR 395 million) at the end of the financial year. The composition of deposits developed as targeted during the first half, with an increased share from our own channels, which lowered the average funding cost and improved the predictability of the deposit base. Based on current projections, the average funding cost will continue to decline in the second half of the year, albeit at a clearly slower pace.
The bank’s capital adequacy ratio continued to strengthen during the first half and stood at 19.2 percent at the end of June, matching the target level of 16 percent.
Looking ahead
In line with the bank’s new strategy, the transformation toward lower-risk SME financing products will improve the risk-adjusted return on new sales (income net of credit losses) during 2025. The decline in the cost of funding is expected to continue throughout the year under the market’s projected interest rate scenario. These measures, combined with the growth in the financing balance sheet, will have a positive impact on profit compared with the first half of the year. We continue to target financing balance sheet growth outpacing the market through both existing and new BaaS partnerships. Based on ongoing discussions, Alisa’s offering — particularly in invoice financing — is seen as highly attractive.
We will place special emphasis on keeping business financing on a growth path and on intensifying the cost-adjustment program initiated earlier this year, critically reviewing both external and internal expenses. In light of changes already implemented, we are confident that further savings can be achieved in this area.
We expect the bank’s monthly profit before taxes and non-recurring items to turn positive, as it did in the previous year, during the latter part of 2025.
Sampsa Laine
CEO
Outlook for 2025
Alisa Bank released 18 June 2025 a profit warning, bringing down the outlook for 2025.
18 June 2025 updated outlook for 2025:
The prolonged uncertainty of the operating environment is weakening the company's profit performance for 2025. Alisa Bank continues to implement the renewed strategy and develop BaaS partnerships. The bank’s target is profitable growth in business financing, taking into account the economic uncertainty affecting lending. The profit before non-recurring items and taxes for year 2025 is estimated to decline from 2024 level.
Previous outlook for 2025, that was published in connection with the Financial Statements Bulletin 2024:
After a year of changes, Alisa Bank will implement the renewed strategy in the 2025 fiscal year and continue to develop BaaS partnerships. There are early positive signs in the general economic situation, although there is still uncertainty regarding the development of the operating environment. If the economic recovery continues, combined with the implementation of the bank’s renewed strategy, it will support the bank’s income growth during the current financial year. For the reasons mentioned above, and due to the impact of the annual cycle of invoice financing business, favorable development is expected to be emphasized in the second half of the year.
The profit for the second half of 2024 reflects the current financial state of the renewed Alisa. The profit before non-recurring items for 2025, is estimated to develop favorably compared with the current financial state.

ALISA BANK PLC STOCK EXCHANGE RELEASE, INSIDER INFORMATION 18.6.2025 KLO 15.45 EEST
Alisa Bank brings down the outlook for 2025. The prolonged uncertainty in the operating environment has been reflected in weaker-than-expected demand for all of the bank’s main products, as well as a high level of credit loss provisions.
Invoice financing volumes and demand are typically low in the first quarter of the year, but during this spring, the utilization rates of invoice financing limits have remained exceptionally low, and the recovery has been slower than usual. In addition, the growth pursued through Banking-as-a-Service partnerships has not developed as targeted.
While there have been signs of recovery in the demand for business financing during the second quarter of the year, the challenging start to the year is difficult to offset.
Operating expenses have developed as expected during the early part of the year. Due to weaker income performance, the company launches a cost-saving program, the results of which will be mostly visible in 2026.
New outlook for 2025
The prolonged uncertainty of the operating environment is weakening the company's profit performance for 2025. Alisa Bank continues to implement the renewed strategy and develop BaaS partnerships. The bank’s target is profitable growth in business financing, taking into account the economic uncertainty affecting lending. The profit before non-recurring items and taxes for year 2025 is expected to decline from 2024 level.

The profit for the second half of 2024 reflects the current financial state of the renewed Alisa. The profit before non-recurring items for 2025, is estimated to develop favorably compared with the current financial state.

Remuneration for the Members of the Board
Regarding the remuneration of the Board, the General Meeting decided that the fixed monthly fee of the Board Members is determined as an annual remuneration and paid once a year.

Approximately 40 percent of the annual fees will be paid in Alisa Bank Plc shares purchased from the market on behalf of the Board Members, or alternatively by handing over the company's own shares or issuing new shares. When transferring the company's own shares or issuing new shares, the share conversion rate is the weighted average price of the company's share exchange in Nasdaq Helsinki Oy for the period of five trading days after the publication of the company's half-year report 2025. The company is responsible for the costs and possible transfer tax arising from the acquisition, transfer or giving of the shares. The rest of the annual fee is paid in cash, which covers the taxes arising from the fee.
The shares will be acquired directly on behalf of the Board Members within two weeks after the company's 2025 half-year report is announced. The transfer of the company's own shares or the issuance of new shares takes place as soon as possible after the reward has been converted into shares. If the acquisition, transfer or giving of the shares cannot be carried out at the aforementioned time due to legal or other regulatory restrictions or for another reason related to the company or the Board Member, the shares will be acquired, transferred or given later or the annual remuneration will be paid in full in cash.
Authorisation of the Board of Directors to decide on acquisition of own shares
It was resolved, in accordance with the proposal of the Board of Directors, that the Board of Directors is authorised to decide on the acquisition of a maximum of 7 501 578 own shares in one or more installments with the company's free equity capital. The number of shares corresponds to approximately 5 percent of the Company's shares. The shares are acquired in a public trading organized by Nasdaq Helsinki Oy, other than in proportion to the shareholders' holdings, at the market price at the time of acquisition. The authorisation is valid until the end of the next Annual General Meeting, but no later than 30 June 2026. The authorisation can be used, for example, to implement possible business acquisitions and incentive systems for key personnel or for other purposes decided by the Board. The shares acquired on the basis of the authorisation can otherwise be further transferred, kept by the company or cancelled. The Board can decide on all other conditions for acquiring own shares. The company's previous authorisation for the purchase of its own shares expired at the Annual General Meeting on 20 March 2025.
Authorisation of the Board to decide on issuing shares and option rights and other special rights entitling to shares
It was resolved, in accordance with the proposal of the Board of Directors, that the Board of Directors is authorised to decide on the issue of shares and the issue of special rights entitling to shares referred to in Chapter 10, Section 1 of the Limited Liability Companies Act in one or more installments, either against payment or without payment. The number of shares to be issued, including shares obtained based on special rights, can be a maximum of 7 501 578 shares in total. The Board can decide to issue either new shares or transfer any of its own shares that may be in the company's possession.
The maximum amount of authorization corresponds to about 5 % of all the company's shares, based on the situation on the day of the meeting notice. The authorisation entitles the Board to decide on all conditions for issuing shares and granting special rights entitling to shares, including the right to deviate from the shareholders' preemptive right. The authorisation is to be used, for example, to pay the purchase prices of business transactions, to pay the incentive fee according to the incentive system for key personnel, or for other purposes decided by the Board. The authorisation also includes the right to decide whether the subscription price of the share will be fully or partially entered into the invested unrestricted equity fund or as a share capital increase. The authorisation is to be valid until the end of the next Annual General Meeting, but no later than 30 June 2026. The previous authorisation of the Board ended with the Annual General Meeting on 20 March 2025.
