BELO HORIZONTE, Brazil, Jan. 18, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Inter&Co (Nasdaq: INTR and B3:INBR32), the premier Super App in the Americas providing financial and digital commerce services to more than 24 million customers in Brazil and the US, announced today at its 2023 Investor Day its "60-30-30" growth targets.

Inter revealed its ambitious targets for the next five years as it continues to implement its strategy, grow its Super App, expand into new markets and leverage its comparative financial advantages.

By year-end 2027, Inter expects to:

• Achieve strong scale, more than doubling its current client base to 60 million clients
• Operate more efficiently than its peers, with a target efficiency ratio of approximately 30%
• Deliver high profitability, generating more than R$5 billion in net income with a ˜R$100 billion loan book, bringing return on equity to approximately 30%

"Inter has gone beyond banking to become the premier Super App in the Americas. By balancing the right combination of technology investment with unit economic growth and profitability, we have built a suite of capabilities that are unmatched in the market," said João Vitor Menin, CEO of Inter&Co. "We are still in the early stages in our evolution, but our impressive results showcase how we are taking Inter to the next level. We are confident that we have the right strategy, solutions and team in place to execute on our goals and deliver sustainable growth."

Inter, which listed on Nasdaq in June 2022, has generated significant momentum since becoming the first free, full service, and fully digital bank in Brazil in 2015. Inter has leveraged the power of its innovative technology to enhance the client experience, upending the legacy banking model and igniting a revolution in terms of financial inclusion in Brazil. The Inter Super App is designed to make everyday activities simple and easy for everybody, all through one experience, one account, and one single login that can be used on any device, anywhere in the world.

The Company's focus on customer experience coupled with its strong balance sheet has resulted in tremendous customer engagement and growth. In the third quarter of 2022, Inter reported 47% annual growth in its Loan Portfolio, reached R$50[1] in average monthly revenue per active client (monthly ARPAC), and generated R$1.5 billion in Gross Revenue, which grew 85% year over year[2].  Inter also had over 500,000 Global Accounts and added an average of more than 5,000 new Global Accounts every business day in the quarter. Furthermore, Inter's global capabilities were strengthened last year following its acquisition of USEND in the United States.

"As we grow our client base and improve account monetization, we expect our efficiency ratio to outperform our peers over time. Our unit economics will also strengthen and compound as we continue to expand. We have positioned Inter at the intersection of Banking and Technology, leveraging the best of both worlds to create a better customer experience and generate superior returns for all our stakeholders," concluded João Vitor Menin.

Inter&Co is the holding company of Inter Group and indirectly holds all of Banco Inter's shares. Inter is the premier Super App in the Americas providing financial and digital commerce services to more than 24 million customers in Brazil and the US.
