NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Klarna, the global digital bank and flexible payments provider, has completed a $518 million Significant Risk Transfer, freeing up capital to support strong consumer demand for its products. The 3-year agreement supports $12 billion in additional lending and forms part of Klarna's wider capital-efficiency program, which pairs SRTs with forward-flow and warehouse financing to support growth in a capital-lighter way. The transaction is the second SRT Klarna has complete.

Klarna benefits from maturing Fair Financing cohorts, low-cost deposit funding, richer net interest income, and prudent risk underwriting, supporting transaction margin dollar expansion. These have contributed to their successful acquisition strategy, as observed in the accelerating GMV growth and the expanding active customer base with higher frequency. KLAR's recent bottoming has provided a trading floor, with the cheap price/sales of 1.65x coming with robust top-line growth prospects at a 3Y CAGR of +21.4%.

Jabil, CECO and Klarna made a tight earnings-acceleration screen, highlighting rising EPS growth trends that could signal further stock upside.

Klarna is working on a significant risk transfer (SRT) that will enable it to offload credit risk tied to buy now, pay later (BNPL) loans and free up capital, Bloomberg reported Tuesday (July 14), citing unnamed sources.
