(Exact name of registrant as specified in its charter) Delaware 0-14120 23-1462070 (State or other jurisdiction (Commission File (IRS Employer of incorporation) Number) Identification No.)
Welsh and McKean Roads, P.O. Box 844, Spring House, PA 19477 (Address of principal executive offices) (Zip Code) Registrant's telephone number, including area code: (215) 657-4000 2 Item 5. Other Events On July 24, 2000 Advanta Corp. (the "Company" or "Advanta") announced that it expects pro forma net operating results for the second quarter 2000 to be in line with expectations before any adjustments resulting from the current discussions with its banking regulators regarding the valuation of residual assets and allowance for loan losses for its mortgage business. The Company also announced that net operating income for Advanta Business Cards was $14.8 million this quarter, a 73% increase over the $8.6 million reported for the first quarter of 2000 and a 206% increase over the $4.8 million reported for the second quarter of 1999. This increase is primarily due to growth in the number of accounts and receivables. Managed receivables for Advanta Business Cards at the end of the quarter were $1.4 billion, an increase of 17% over the first quarter of 2000, and 61% over the second quarter of 1999. The Company's bank subsidiaries recently entered into agreements with their regulators to modify practices and procedures relating to the Company's subprime lending operations. The agreements also provide that the Company modify its accounting processes and methodology for its allowance for loan losses and valuation of residual assets. The Company is engaged in discussions with the regulators regarding adjustments to the valuation of residual assets and allowance for loan losses for the mortgage business, which are expected to have a negative impact on results for the quarter. The adjustments being discussed will have no impact on the results of the Company's business card and leasing businesses. Until these discussions with the banking regulators conclude and the Company has assessed their impact, the Company intends to make no further updates to this disclosure. Therefore, the Company is delaying its previously scheduled July 25th conference call with analysts and investors until August 2, 2000, when it will discuss net income for the second quarter and guidance for the second half of the year. Advanta generated $29.6 million of cash flow from operations, after considering key mortgage non-cash income and expense items and the cash impact of mortgage loan originations. Advanta ended the quarter with over $900 million in total liquidity. During the second quarter, the Company financed, with parent and bank funds, loan receivables on its books totaling $1.7 billion. Advanta (www.advanta.com) is a highly focused financial services company with over 2,900 employees, servicing over $26 billion of assets, including approximately $13 billion in managed assets and approximately $13.6 billion in assets serviced for third parties.
