Briefing

Credit Acceptance reported a decrease in net income and adjusted net income compared to the same period last year, driven by increased provision for credit losses and decreased finance charges.

Adjusted net income was $156.1 million, or $11.74 per diluted share, compared to $212.6 million, or $14.26 per diluted share, for the same period in 2021.
