Third Quarter 2025 Results
Highlights :
- Achieved $2.6 billion in origination volume, up 37% compared to the prior year, driven by the successful execution of product and marketing initiatives.
- Diluted EPS nearly tripled compared to the prior year to $0.37.
- Continued to deliver credit outperformance vs. competitor set, with +37% better performance.
- LevelUp Checking drove 7x increase in account openings vs. prior checking product.
- Announced Investor Day to be held November 5, 2025.
Balance Sheet:
- Total assets of $11.1 billion, up 4% year-to-date and comparable year-over-year due to a portfolio acquisition in the same quarter of the prior year.
- Deposits of $9.4 billion, compared to $9.5 billion in the prior year, primarily attributable to a $0.6 billion decrease in brokered deposits, which was mostly offset by an increase in non-brokered deposits.
- 88% of total deposits are FDIC-insured.
- Robust available liquidity of $3.9 billion.
- Strong capital position with a consolidated Tier 1 leverage ratio of 12.3% and a CET1 capital ratio of 18.0%.
- Book value per common share grew to $12.68, compared to $11.95 in the prior year.
- Tangible book value per common share grew to $11.95, compared to $11.19 in the prior year.
Financial Performance:
- Loan originations grew 37% to $2.6 billion, compared to $1.9 billion in the prior year.
- Total net revenue increased 32% to $266.2 million, compared to $201.9 million in the prior year, driven by higher marketplace sales and loan sale pricing, strong credit performance, and higher net interest margin on a larger balance sheet.
- Net interest margin expanded to 6.18%, compared to 5.63% in the prior year, driven by improved deposit funding costs.
- Provision for credit losses of $46.3 million, compared to $47.5 million in the prior year, driven by strong credit performance, partially offset by day-1 provision for higher originations of held-for-investment retained loans.
- Net charge-offs in the held-for-investment at amortized cost loan portfolio improved to $31.1 million, compared to $55.8 million in the prior year, driven by strong credit performance and portfolio composition and maturity.
- Efficiency ratio of 61% compared to 68% in the prior year, driven by increasing operating leverage as expenses have been well-managed by the implementation of AI technologies and other cost initiatives.
- Net income more than tripled to $44.3 million, compared to $14.5 million in the prior year.
- Return on Equity (ROE) of 12.4% with a Return on Tangible Common Equity (ROTCE) of 13.2%.
