"The third quarter was another solid quarter for PRA Group, driven once again by the performance of our European operations" said Kevin Stevenson, president and chief executive officer. "We continued to outperform our expectations. According to the Federal Reserve, U.S. credit card balances now exceed 2019 levels, while delinquency and charge-off rates are continuing to tick up, especially for card issuers that cater to non-prime consumers. This strengthens our conviction that more supply will enter the U.S. market in the coming months. As more of these economic signs point to meaningful supply increases in the near future, we intend to remain disciplined in our underwriting and portfolio purchases, leveraging our deep experience, strong balance sheet and geographic diversity to generate the best possible risk-adjusted returns."

The decrease was driven primarily by a 29.3% decrease in U.S. call center and other collections, which was due to lower levels of portfolio purchases. Europe cash collections decreased by 11.2%; however, on a currency adjusted basis, they increased by 4.2%.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
PRA Group, Inc. reports its financial results in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). However, management uses certain non-GAAP financial measures, including Adjusted EBITDA, internally to evaluate the Company's performance and to set performance goals. Adjusted EBITDA is calculated as net income attributable to PRA Group, Inc. plus income tax expense; less foreign exchange gain (or plus foreign exchange loss); plus interest expense, net; plus other expense (or less other income); plus depreciation and amortization; plus adjustment for net income attributable to noncontrolling interests; and plus recoveries applied to negative allowance less changes in expected recoveries. Adjusted EBITDA is a supplemental measure of performance that is not required by, or presented in accordance with, GAAP. PRA Group, Inc. presents Adjusted EBITDA because the Company considers it an important supplemental measure of operations and financial performance. Management believes Adjusted EBITDA helps provide enhanced period-to-period comparability of operations and financial performance and is useful to investors as other companies in the industry report similar financial measures. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to net income determined in accordance with GAAP. Set forth below is a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA for the last twelve months (LTM) ended September 30, 2022 and for the year ended December 31, 2021, to net income, the most directly comparable financial measure calculated and reported in accordance with GAAP. The calculation of Adjusted EBITDA below may not be comparable to the calculation of similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

Additionally, management evaluates the Company's business using certain ratios that use Adjusted EBITDA, including Debt to Adjusted EBITDA, which is calculated by dividing borrowings by Adjusted EBITDA. The following table reflects our Debt to Adjusted EBITDA for LTM as of September 30, 2022 and for the year ended December 31, 2021:
