Nu
Holdings Ltd. (NYSE: NU), one
of the world’s largest digital financial services platforms, released its second quarter 2023 financial results on
August 15th.
Excerpts:
"This
quarter, Nu continued to expand its customer base, engagement, and
monetization, increasing ARPAC above $9 for the first time, while keeping cost
to serve stable below the dollar level. This combination led to revenue growing
5x in the last two years to a record of $1.9 billion, and net income reaching
$225 million, over 50% higher than the last quarter, which reinforces Nu’s
strong operational leverage and earning-generating power. We continue to
showcase leading indicators in the region for operating efficiency, and
solidity. In Brazil, our growth trajectory continues, as one in every two
adults is a Nu customer, and we have become the fourth largest financial
institution in the country in number of customers", said David Vélez, founder
and CEO of Nubank.
From the news:
Customer growth: Nu added 4.6 million customers in Q2’23 and 18.4 million
year-over-year (YoY), reaching a total of 83.7 million customers globally by
June 30th, 2023. This represents a 28% growth YoY, which underscores Nu's
position as one of the largest and fastest-growing digital financial services
platforms worldwide and the fifth-largest financial institution in Latin
America by number of customers. In Brazil, Nu’s customer base reached 79.4
million by June 30th, 2023, accounting for 49% of the country’s adult
population and becoming the fourth-largest financial institution by number of
customers, according to Brazilian Central Bank data. In July 2023, after the
closing of Q2’23, Nu surpassed the mark of 85 million customers globally and 80
million in Brazil.
From the news:
Performance and Growth in Brazil: Nu’s growth trajectory continues with around
1.5 million new customers per month. Nu has already become best-in-class in
terms of efficiency ratio in the country, as revenues continue to grow while
costs remain under control, demonstrating massive operating leverage and likely
securing the position of the lowest-cost manufacturer in Brazil. Recent
launches on Secured Loans, such as Payroll Loans for Federal Public Servants or
FGTS-backed loans which the company began testing a few weeks ago, will enable
Nu to become the primary banking relationship of an even larger base of
customers, fueling engagement and monetization even further.
