State of Delaware Case Study • Opera recently completed a Collections Diagnostic for the State of Delaware Department of Revenue • DOR management has graciously agreed to share the highlights of this study with today’s audience • All of us at Opera thank Delaware Director of Revenue Patrick Carter, Deputy Director of Revenue Colleen Yegla and Sharon Ferrara, Manager of the Bureau of Tax Collection for their collaboration and support during the course of this project
Portfolio Overview: Potential Opportunity A significant portion of the Delaware portfolio that has never made a payment - $180MM. There is a substantial opportunity to improve collections performance for this group of accounts Inventory Overview by Payment History As of May 2011, Balances and Collections in Millions Opera can help to capture an incremental10 – 15% of this group Paid 12-24 Months Last Payment >24 Months Total Balances Paid in Last 12 Months No Payment in 12 Months Never Paid
Account Distribution by Income Range Debtors who make more than $50K make up only 34% of the total population, but they make up over 50% of the balances and payments; isolating these debtors may increase efficiencies in the tax portfolio Account Distribution by Income Balance in $ 000,000’s and Payments in $ 000’s Average Balance Average Payment >$100 $9,256 $3,085 $50-100 $6,376 $1,794 $25-50 $3,631 $1,058 $0-25 $3,951 $779 Accounts Original Balance Total Payments
Balance, Collections, and Liquidation Heat Map Segmenting the portfolio by income band and number of accounts per person shows that the low income, high account taxpayers perform much worse than the high income and low account debtors Delinquent Balances Payments The lowest performing segment consists of low income individuals with multiple cases Liquidations Most attractive segment consists of high income customers with one account
Cumulative Payments Post-Placement by Income Band After 18 months, the marginal increase in collections from one month to the next is very small for the lower income ranges $ Collected by Income Level Collections in $MM $ Collected, in MM 6.5 6.0 5.5 >100K 5.0 4.5 4.0 50 - 100K 3.5 3.0 2.5 2.0 D. 25-50 1.5 1.0 0 - 25K 0.5 0.0 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 Months Since Placement
Sample: Account Prioritization by Income Range Debtors who make more than $50K make up only 34% of the total population, but they make up over 50% of the balances and payments; isolating these debtors may increase efficiencies in the tax portfolio Account Distribution by Income1 Accounts in 0’s, Balance in $ 000,000 and Payments in $ 000’s >$100 $50-100 DOR can benefit from accelerated outsourcing of accounts of taxpayers earning less than $20k/year and redirecting released resources to higher-value accounts $25-50 $0-25 # of Accts Original Balance Total Payments 1 Income data from bc_case_history file and RETURN_AGI field from all accounts with AGI information
Potential Strategy Changes By shifting resources away from low income and low balance accounts, DOR can significantly increase the efforts against larger accounts, increasing collections in the more liquid high income segments ILLUSTRATIVE Sample Strategies Using Income as a Differentiator OCA OCA OCA Dialer OCA Work effort proportionate to % of total balances for taxpayers with income of$25+ Benefit based on hypothetical 20% improvement based on reallocation of resources and improved automation; potential savings not included
Opera Recommendation Engine: How It Works Opera will provide daily updates and prioritized lists of accounts to work to DOR collections management. Lists will be created based on Opera’s recommender models built using DOR data • ----- • ----- • ----- • ----- • ----- • ----- • ----- • ----- • ----- • ----- Delaware Data Sets: Delinquency Data Income Data Other Data Sources Opera Recommendation Engine Account 1 Account 2 Account 3 Skip Trace Data: 3rd party Zip + 4 Data: Opera Bureau Account 4 Account 5 Account 6 Account 7 Account 8 Account 9
