PRA Group Looks to Future Expansion Efforts

The debt collection business is in some ways countercyclical, with the need for businesses to collect unpaid debts typically growing during weak economic conditions and pulling back somewhat during good times. PRA Group (NASDAQ: PRAA) has seen the ups and downs of the economic cycle on its business, and it knows that it has to be ready to ramp up when available business picks up steam in the future.

Coming into Wednesday's third-quarter financial report, PRA Group investors understood that the company would once again see weaker fundamental performance from the debt collection company. PRA Group didn't pull a rabbit out of its hat to avoid that downturn, but it did give signs that it's getting ready for better times ahead. Let's take a closer look at PRA Group to see what it expects in the near future.
