Aktiv Kapital reports operating revenues of NOK 219.8 million and operating profit of NOK 94.6 million in the third quarter of 2011, compared to operating revenue of NOK 234.6 million and operating profit of NOK 101.0 million in third quarter 2010. The decrease is primarily related to few acquisitions of portfolios. "The results for the third quarter demonstrate how Aktiv Kapital is operating efficiently and adjusts costs to revenue. The Group will continue to streamline the organisation and drive operational improvements in order to maximise profitability," says newly appointed CEO Geir Langfeldt Olsen.

Aktiv Kapital’s flexibility provided the client with insight and cemented a long-term relationship.

Aktiv Kapital reports an operating profit of NOK 105.3 million in the second quarter 2011, 14% above the corresponding quarter last year. The increase is mainly due to operational improvements initiated in 2010. “Aktiv Kapital has an efficient operation and is capable of achieving revenue growth with its current cost base. With future portfolio acquisitions, our margins will move higher”, says acting CEO Scott Danielsen.

Despite the continued macroeconomic uncertainty and sluggish debt markets that have followed the financial crisis, Aktiv Kapital continues to thrive.
