Frequently asked questions

What is Consumer Portfolio Services Inc's revenue?

Consumer Portfolio Services Inc's trailing twelve-month revenue is $202.70M. Revenue is the top line the whole model builds on, and at this scale the question shifts from how fast it grows to whether margins hold as it compounds.

How profitable is CPSS?

In its most recent fiscal year, CPSS ran a gross margin of 99.59%, an operating margin of 60.76%, and a net margin of 4.52%. Margins this high mean most of each extra dollar of revenue drops through to profit, which is the signature of real pricing power.

How much free cash flow does CPSS generate?

CPSS produced $288.29M in free cash flow in its most recent fiscal year. Free cash flow is what is left after running and reinvesting in the business, and it is the cash that actually funds buybacks, dividends, and a stronger balance sheet.

Is CPSS's balance sheet healthy?

CPSS holds $6.32M in cash and equivalents against $3.16B in long-term debt, on $309.54M of shareholder equity. That debt is best read against the cash flow the business throws off each year.
