What EOS Solutions UK does

EOS Solutions UK Plc is the United Kingdom subsidiary of EOS Group, a Germany-headquartered receivables management company owned by the Otto Group. Founded in 1972 and based in Warrington, the firm is authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority (FRN 631186) and operates as a public limited company registered in England and Wales. The UK business sells five core services to enterprise clients: debt purchase (acquiring receivables portfolios at negotiated prices and assuming non-payment risk), debt collection (multi-channel B2B and B2C recovery), international debt recovery (cross-border mandates via Cross-Border and Shared-Service Solutions across more than 180 countries), professional arrears management, and recovery services. Customers include banks, insurers, loan providers, B2C firms (utilities, telecoms, e-commerce), and B2B companies; named enterprise clients include Hertz and Commerzbank.

The underlying technology stack combines AI, Robotic Process Automation, data analytics, and proprietary platforms. Kollecto+ is a web-based, cloud-ready digital collection system deployed across 12 countries and adopted by nearly half of EOS national subsidiaries. The EOS Global Collection Platform enables automated case transmission and real-time communication across 140 countries. Additional capabilities include the Iron EOS Cyber Shield for data protection, AI-powered portfolio valuation algorithms, predictive debtor categorisation models, automated vulnerability detection, and access to parent Otto Group's ogGPT generative AI tool. Consumer-facing digital channels include a Customer Self Service Portal and a SagePay-powered one-off payment portal.

EOS generates revenue through transaction-based debt purchase (where EOS buys portfolios at a price determined by predictive algorithms), professional services fees for debt collection and arrears management contracts, outcome-based "no success, no fee" pricing for international Shared-Service Solutions, and managed services for ongoing receivables monitoring. The EOS Group as a whole reported revenue of 1.1 billion EUR and EBITDA of 460.8 million EUR in fiscal year 2024/25, with group-level revenue growth of 5.6% and NPL portfolio investments of 826.6 million EUR across Western, Eastern, and Central Europe. Standalone UK revenue is not disclosed. EOS Solutions UK differentiates through combining large-scale capital deployment with proprietary data assets and regulatory standing, supported by ISO 9001 and ISO/IEC 27001 certifications, EcoVadis Gold Medal (December 2025), and consecutive Morningstar Sustainalytics ESG Top Rated designations.

Revenue model

1. Debt Purchase: EOS purchases receivables portfolios from clients (primarily banks, insurers, loan providers) at a negotiated price. Revenue is generated when the debt is recovered from debtors, with EOS bearing the risk of non-payment.
2. Debt Collection Services: EOS manages receivables on behalf of clients (both B2B and B2C) through all available channels (letter, email, telephone, face-to-face), using legal proceedings as a last resort. Fees are charged for the collection service provided to creditors.
3. International Debt Recovery: Cross-border debt collection services delivered through a network of partners in over 180 countries. EOS provides either a Cross-Border Solution (dedicated EOS representative) or Shared-Service Solution (automated group-wide processes).
4. Professional Arrears Management: Ongoing management and monitoring of client receivables including payment reminders, conducted through the right tone of voice, time, and media channel.
5. Recovery Services: Specialist services for when debtors pay late or default, including contact via letter, email, telephone, and face-to-face, with recovery and realisation of movable goods through national and international expert networks.
