Affirm Reports Fourth Quarter and Fiscal Year 2022 Results

Active Merchants Increase from 29,000 to 235,000 and
Active Consumers Grow 96% Year over Year

Gross Merchandise Volume (GMV) Increases 77% and
Total Revenue Grows by 39% Year over Year for the Quarter

SAN FRANCISCO – August 25, 2022 – Affirm Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ: AFRM) (“Affirm” or the "Company”), the payment network that empowers consumers and helps merchants drive growth, today reported financial results for its fourth quarter and fiscal year ended June 30, 2022.

“Affirm delivered strong performance in the fourth quarter,” said Max Levchin, Founder and CEO of Affirm. "We grew GMV by 77% and set a new record for consumer re-engagement with 85% of transactions coming from repeat users, all while prudently managing risk. We remain focused on scaling our network, maintaining attractive unit economics, capturing greater share, and helping our partners grow."

Levchin continued, "While the growth of online commerce is falling back to pre-COVID levels, the secular trend toward adopting honest financial products is gaining momentum. Not only does this make our mission more important but it also plays directly into Affirm's strengths. With our breadth of product offerings, risk management expertise and superior technology, we stand ready to meet the moment by making money more efficient for all of our network's participants.”
Fourth Quarter and Fiscal Year 2022 Operating Highlights:
All comparisons are made versus the same period in fiscal year 2021 unless otherwise stated.

GMV for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022 was $4.4 billion, an increase of 77%; GMV for fiscal year 2022 was $15.5 billion, an increase of 87%.
Active merchants saw an increase from 29,000 to 235,000, driven primarily by the adoption of Shop Pay Installments by merchants on Shopify's platform.
Active consumers grew 96% to 14.0 million and increased by 1.2 million, or 10%, on a sequential basis compared to as of March 31, 2022.
Total transactions grew to 12.0 million for the quarter, an increase of 139%.
Transactions per active consumer increased 31% to 3.0 as of June 30, 2022, and 85% of total transactions during the fourth quarter were from repeat Affirm consumers.

Fourth Quarter of Fiscal Year 2022 Financial Highlights:1

All comparisons are made versus the same period in fiscal year 2021 unless otherwise stated.

Total revenue was $364.1 million, a 39% increase, driven primarily by continued GMV growth as well as higher interest income and greater servicing income as the loan portfolio held by third parties scaled. The impact from this higher GMV growth and increased income was offset by mix shift towards lower take rate programs such as Split Pay and large enterprise partnerships in the general merchandise category, which saw GMV growth of 477%.
Total revenue less transaction costs increased 25% to $184.3 million primarily as a result of strong revenue growth and a decrease in loss on loan purchase commitment, offset by increased processing and servicing costs and provision for credit losses. Provision for credit losses grew to $72.7 million compared to $25.5 million a year ago, a period which saw the release of COVID-related allowances. In comparison to our more normalized fiscal third quarter of 2022, provision for credit losses grew just 10%, and provision for credit losses as a percentage of GMV declined by 4 basis points sequentially to 1.65%. Excluding the provision for credit losses, revenue less transaction costs increased by $83.8 million or 48%.
Operating loss was $277.2 million compared to $114.3 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2021, which includes $108.0 million of expense related to warrants granted to Amazon in November 2021 and an increase in stock-based compensation expense of $10.7 million to $110.9 million.
Adjusted operating loss was $29.3 million compared to adjusted operating income of $14.2 million for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2021. Adjusted operating margin was (8.0)%, compared to 5.4% for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2021.
Net loss was $186.4 million compared to $123.4 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2021.
Fiscal Year 2022 Financial Highlights:1
All comparisons are made versus fiscal year 2021 unless otherwise stated.

Total revenue was $1.3 billion, a 55% increase, driven by continued growth in GMV, expansion of the active merchant base, deepening of enterprise partnerships, higher interest income related to mix shift towards shorter term loans with greater relative loan discount, greater gains on sales of loans due to higher loan sale volume, and greater servicing income as the loan portfolio held by third-parties scaled.
Total revenue less transaction costs was $662.4 million, a 35% increase compared to $431.6 million in fiscal year 2021, primarily as a result of strong revenue growth, funding cost efficiencies, and a decrease in loss on loan purchase commitment, offset by increased provision for credit losses. During fiscal year 2021, stronger than expected repayment performance against COVID-related allowances resulted in a decrease in the provision for credit losses of $39.2 million compared to fiscal year 2020. Fiscal year 2022 saw a return to a more normalized credit environment, which resulted in an increase in the provision of $189.4 million. Excluding the provision for credit losses, revenue less transaction costs increased by $420.2 million or 84%.
Operating loss was $866.0 million compared to $383.7 million in fiscal year 2021, which includes $281.0 million of expense related to warrants granted to Amazon in November

2021 and an increase in stock-based compensation expense of $98.5 million to $391.0 million.
Adjusted operating loss was $78.3 million compared to an adjusted operating income of $14.3 million in fiscal year 2021. Adjusted operating margin was (5.8)% compared to 1.6% in fiscal year 2021.
Net loss was $707.4 million compared to $441.0 million in fiscal year 2021.
Recent Business Highlights
On June 22, 2022, the Company successfully completed a $371.5 million securitization of its long-duration 0% APR point-of-sale installment loans from its "Z" issuance series - AFFRM 2022-Z1. Similar to the Company's recent 0% APR point-of-sale installment securitizations, this transaction qualified for non-consolidated accounting treatment. This marks the Company's tenth overall securitization transaction since launching its program in 2020.
During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022, the Company added $1.6 billion in net new funding capacity, bringing total funding capacity to $10.6 billion as of June 30, 2022 and total platform portfolio as a percentage of funding capacity down to 67%, a three-year low.
The Company continued to see strong GMV growth in the Travel and Ticketing category during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022, which grew by 87% from the fourth quarter of fiscal 2021, and 40% on a sequential basis from the third quarter of fiscal 2022.
“We closed out our fiscal year very strongly, growing GMV by 87% and revenue by 55%,” said Michael Linford, CFO of Affirm. “Our outperformance demonstrates that our strategy and investments are delivering results. Affirm achieved impressive growth rates as we expanded and diversified our merchant base while also demonstrating significant traction with our higher-frequency Split Pay offering. We believe that we are well-positioned to continue scaling our network while maintaining attractive unit economics."

Linford concluded, “In light of the uncertain macroeconomic backdrop, we are approaching our next fiscal year prudently while maintaining our focus on driving responsible growth and continuing to invest in strengthening our leadership position. We continue to expect to achieve a sustained profitability run rate, on an adjusted operating income basis, by the end of fiscal 2023.”

Affirm's financial outlook assumes the following:
The Company assumes the current forward interest rate curve as well as early signs of macroeconomic stress persisting through the fiscal year;
The Company expects holiday-driven seasonality in the second quarter driving a seasonal decline in revenue as a percent of GMV and revenue less transaction costs as a percent of GMV;
The Company has not included any material impact to GMV or revenue from the rollout of its Affirm Debit+ card; and
The Company expects equity capital required as a percent of total platform portfolio to remain below 5% throughout the fiscal year.

Key Operating Metrics
Gross Merchandise Volume ("GMV") - The Company defines GMV as the total dollar amount of all transactions on the Affirm platform during the applicable period, net of refunds. GMV does not represent revenue earned by the Company. However, the Company believes that GMV is a useful operating metric to both the Company and investors in assessing the volume of transactions that take place on the Company's platform, which is an indicator of the success of the Company's merchants and the strength of that platform.
Active Consumers - The Company defines an active consumer as a consumer who engages in at least one transaction on its platform during the 12 months prior to the measurement date. The Company believes that active consumers is a useful operating metric to both the Company and investors in assessing consumer adoption and engagement and measuring the size of the Company's network.
Transactions per Active Consumer - Transactions per active consumer is defined as the average number of transactions that an active consumer has conducted on its platform during the 12 months prior to the measurement date. The Company believes that transactions per active consumer is a useful operating metric to both the Company and investors in assessing consumer engagement and repeat usage, which is an indicator of the value of the Company's network.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Transaction Costs - The Company defines transaction costs as the sum of loss on loan purchase commitment, provision for credit losses, funding costs, and processing and servicing expense. The Company believes that transaction costs is a useful financial measure to both the Company and investors of those costs, which vary with the volume of transactions processed on the Company's platform.
Transaction Costs as a Percentage of GMV - The Company defines transaction costs as a percentage of GMV as transaction costs, as defined above, as a percentage of GMV, as defined above. The Company believes that transaction costs as a percentage of GMV is a useful financial measure to both the Company and investors as it approximates the variable cost efficiency of transactions processed on the Company's platform.
Revenue Less Transaction Costs - The Company defines revenue less transaction costs as GAAP total revenue less transaction costs, as defined above. The Company believes that revenue less transaction costs is a useful financial measure to both the Company and investors of the economic value generated by transactions processed on the Company's platform.
5


Revenue Less Transaction Costs as a Percentage of GMV - The Company defines revenue less transaction costs as a percentage of GMV as revenue less transaction costs, as defined above, as a percentage of GMV, as defined above. The Company believes that revenue less transaction costs as a percentage of GMV is a useful financial measure to both the Company and investors of the unit economics of transactions processed on the Company's platform.
Adjusted Operating Income (Loss) - The Company defines adjusted operating income (loss) as its GAAP operating loss, excluding: (a) depreciation and amortization; (b) stock-based compensation included in GAAP operating loss; (c) the expense related to warrants and share-based payments granted to enterprise partners; and (d) certain other costs as set forth in the reconciliation of adjusted operating income (loss) to GAAP operating loss included in the tables at the end of this press release. Adjusted operating income (loss) is presented because the Company believes that it is a useful financial measure to both the Company and investors for evaluating its operating performance and that it facilitates period to period comparisons of the Company's results of operations as the items excluded generally are not a function of the Company's operating performance.
Adjusted Operating Margin - The Company defines adjusted operating margin as its adjusted operating income (loss), as defined above, as a percentage of its GAAP total revenue. Similar to adjusted operating income (loss), the Company believes that adjusted operating margin is a useful financial measure to both the Company and investors for evaluating its operating performance and that it facilitates period to period comparisons of the Company's results of operations as the items excluded generally are not a function of the Company's operating performance.
Total Platform Portfolio - The Company defines total platform portfolio as the unpaid principal balance outstanding of all loans facilitated through its platform as of the balance sheet date, including loans held for investment, loans held for sale, and loans owned by third-parties. The Company believes that total platform portfolio is a useful financial measure to both the Company and investors in assessing the scale of funding requirements for the Company's network.
Equity Capital Required - The Company defines equity capital required as the sum of the balance of loans held for investment and loans held for sale, less the balance of funding debt and notes issued by securitization trusts as of the balance sheet date. The Company believes that equity capital required is a useful financial measure to both the Company and investors in assessing the amount of the Company's total platform portfolio that the Company funds with its own equity capital.
Equity Capital Required as a Percentage of Total Platform Portfolio - The Company defines equity capital required as a percentage of total platform portfolio as equity capital required, as defined above, as a percentage of total platform portfolio, as defined above. The Company believes that equity capital required as a percentage of total platform portfolio is a useful financial measure to both the Company and investors in assessing the proportion of outstanding loans on the Company's platform that are funded by the Company's own equity capital.
Supplemental Performance Indicators
Active Merchants - The Company defines an active merchant as a merchant which engages in at least one transaction on its platform during the 12 months prior to the measurement date. The Company believes that active merchants is a useful performance indicator to both the Company and investors because it measures the reach of the Company's network.
Total Transactions - The Company defines total transactions as the total number of unique transactions on the Affirm platform during the applicable period. The Company believes that
6


total transactions is a useful performance indicator to both the Company and investors because it measures the frequency of consumer engagement, as demonstrated by the total number of unique transactions.
Total Revenue as a Percentage of GMV - The Company defines total revenue as a percentage of GMV as GAAP total revenue as a percentage of GMV, as defined above. The Company believes that total revenue as a percentage of GMV is a useful performance indicator to both the Company and investors of the revenue generated on a transaction processed on the Company's platform.
Allowance for Credit Losses as a Percentage of Loans Held for Investment - The Company defines allowance for credit losses as a percentage of loans held for investment as GAAP allowance for credit losses as a percentage of GAAP loans held for investment. The Company believes that allowance for credit losses as a percentage of loans held for investment is a useful performance indicator to both the Company and investors of the future estimated credit losses on the Company's outstanding loans held for investment.
Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To supplement the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements, which are prepared and presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States ("GAAP"), the Company presents the following non-GAAP financial measures: transaction costs, transaction costs as a percentage of GMV, revenue less transaction costs, revenue less transaction costs as a percentage of GMV, adjusted operating income (loss), adjusted operating margin, total platform portfolio, equity capital required, and equity capital required as a percentage of total platform portfolio. Definitions of these non-GAAP financial measures are included under "Key Operating Metrics, Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Supplemental Performance Indicators" above, and reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures with the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are included in the tables below.

Summaries of the reasons why the Company believes that the presentation of each of these non-GAAP financial measures provides useful information to the Company and investors are included under "Key Operating Metrics, Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Supplemental Performance Indicators" above. In addition, the Company uses these non-GAAP financial measures in conjunction with financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP for planning purposes, including the preparation of its annual operating budget, and for evaluating the effectiveness of its business strategy. However, these non-GAAP financial measures are presented for supplemental informational purposes only, and these non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools. Some of these limitations are as follows:

Revenue less transaction costs and revenue less transaction costs as a percentage of GMV are not intended to be measures of operating profit or loss as they exclude key operating expenses such as technology and data analytics, sales and marketing, and general and administrative expenses;
Adjusted operating income (loss) and adjusted operating margin exclude certain recurring, non-cash charges such as depreciation and amortization, the expense related to warrants and share-based payments granted to enterprise partners, and share-based compensation expense, which have been, and will continue to be for the foreseeable future, significant recurring expenses; and
Other companies, including companies in the same industry, may calculate these non-GAAP financial measures differently from how the Company calculates them or not at all, which reduces its usefulness as a comparative measure.

7


Accordingly, investors should not consider these non-GAAP financial measures in isolation or as substitutes for analysis of the Company's financial results as reported under GAAP, and these non-GAAP measures should be considered along with other operating and financial performance measures presented in accordance with GAAP. Investors are encouraged to review the related GAAP financial measures and the reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures and not rely on any single financial measure to evaluate the business.
