MANAGEMENT COMMENTARY

"The second quarter of fiscal 2025 was highlighted by the initial contribution and steady ramp up of our Receivable Purchase Program in the United States post acquisition, alongside continued growth in Canada, which drove credit assets and total assets to new records, and which, along with the expected strong sequential expansion in net interest margin, drove revenue to a new all-time high," said David Taylor, President and Chief Executive Officer, VersaBank.  "The fundamentals of our cloud-based, business-to-business model, with its significant operating leverage while increasingly mitigating risk, remain solidly in place. As we look out to the second half of fiscal 2025, we expect continued steady growth in our US Receivable Purchase Program, with a target of at least US$290 million by fiscal year end."
