Intrum's shares plunge as servicing segment drives Q3 miss

By Reuters News

** Shares in Intrum INTRUM.ST drop over 39% after company reported a Q3 core profit miss, weighed down by its servicing unit

** The Swedish debt collector booked a goodwill impairment of SEK 1.5 billion ($151.05 million) in Germany within the servicing segment, driving a reported net loss of SEK 1,487 million

** Q3 Adjusted EBIT came in at SEK 976 million against company-compiled consensus of SEK 1.083 million

** J.P Morgan notes servicing income was 3% below consensus due to "weakness concentrated in specialized markets driven by continued run-offs" in Greece, Spain and the UK

** If losses hold, shares are on track for their worst day ever
