Affirm Shareholder Letter FOURTH FISCAL QUARTER 2023 Hollywood Star Lanes
2Affirm | FQ4’23 Shareholder Letter Max Levchin FOUNDER AND CEO In brief: ● We completed our fourth fiscal quarter and exceeded our outlook across all key metrics. ● Sequentially improved credit results and accelerated growth. ● Expanded network reach with new merchants and deeper platform integrations. ● Demonstrated product-market fit with Affirm Card. ● Exited the year profitable on an adjusted operating income basis1, as committed, and expect annual profitability going forward. Fellow Affirm shareholders, In May of 2022, Affirm publicly committed to achieving profitability on an adjusted operating income basis starting in FY’24. At that time, the federal funds rate was still below 1%, money was very cheap, and regional banks hadn’t started failing yet. In retrospect, we probably couldn’t have picked a more challenging moment to make this commitment. By August of the same year, we knew hard choices lay ahead. Hard, but important for the long-term health of the business. Once again, the team came together and delivered under the intense pressure. Affirm was adjusted operating income positive as the fiscal year came to a close. On an annual basis, we intend to remain consistently positive on this metric going forward. We are very proud of the results this quarter and fiscal year, yet our focus remains on the company’s long- term goals. AFFIRM FQ4’23 HIGHLIGHTS GROSS MERCHANDISE VOLUME $5.5B ↑ 25% year-over-year CREDIT OUTCOMES ↓ 30bp lower delinquency rate vs. FQ3’23 and FQ4’22 as measured by 30+ day delinquencies ex-Peloton and Pay in 4 loans TOTAL REVENUE $446M ↑ 22% year-over-year 8.1% of GMV REVENUE LESS TRANSACTION COSTS (“RLTC”)1 $182M ↓ 1% year-over-year 3.3% of GMV FREQUENCY 3.9 transactions per active consumer ↑ 30% year-over-year 1 Information about Affirm's use of non-GAAP financial measures is provided under "Key Operating Metrics, Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Supplemental Performance Indicators" and "Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures" below, and reconciliations of GAAP results to non-GAAP results are provided in the tables at the end of this letter.
3 Affirm is a payment network, with both profit and purpose at its core. The value of network businesses like ours is a function of reach, frequency, and unit economics. Affirm has a market- leading, growing reach – though we have penetrated less than 1% of our total addressable market – and the trust of a loyal base of consumers. We are maintaining strong unit economics during one of the most uncertain periods in recent economic history. What we are focused on now is serving consumers wherever they transact. Our goal is accelerating transaction frequency while profitably expanding merchant and consumer reach. Expanding reach GMV growth accelerated sequentially in fiscal Q4, as we launched new merchants and expanded with existing ones. Travel and ticketing remained strong, and we signed new deals with Cathay Pacific U.S. and Booking.com. Wireless carriers, healthcare providers, and fashion brands like Versace and Canada Goose also joined our merchant list. Expansion projects with Royal Caribbean Group and Priceline, among many others contributed to GMV growth. For example, optimizing financing programs at one partner’s checkout produced a 15% increase in purchases with Affirm. Platform and wallet partnerships multiply our distribution. We extended our U.S. partnership with Stripe to Canada, launched with a major digital wallet, and rolled out ShopPay Installments for Shopify’s in-store POS system. Making it easy for any merchant to offer Affirm payments is key, which is why we partnered with Worldpay, adding to our major merchant acquirer integrations. Overall, GMV through platform partners grew 31% year-over-year. Offline, collaborations with Dick’s Sporting Goods, Michaels, and Staples streamlined the experience of checking out with Affirm at physical locations. Approximately 85% of total U.S. retail spend is offline, but the same metric for Affirm is less than 5%. We have confidence that there is ample opportunity to increase our share of offline transactions. Note: All comparisons throughout this letter are against the third quarter of fiscal year 2022, unless otherwise noted.

4 Note: All comparisons throughout this letter are against the third quarter of fiscal year 2022, unless otherwise noted. Affirm | FQ4’23 Shareholder Letter Affirm Card Active Consumers 3X higher transactions per active user with Affirm Card vs. Affirm overall Growing profitably We focused on accelerating GMV growth while improving profitability in FQ4’23. In our last shareholder letter, we highlighted margin-improvement initiatives (e.g., risk model fine-tuning and repayment experience optimizations) that shipped in FQ3’23. We kept the shipping velocity high in FQ4’23. Examples of impactful launches this quarter include down payment-sensitive APRs to help consumers make smarter financial decisions, campaigns to increase adoption of repayment from bank accounts via ACH, servicing tools, and as always, checkout optimization. Several projects to improve conversion shipped and are expected to add over $600 million of annualized GMV. In our app, we streamlined access to key features, like starting a shopping journey and discovering Affirm-specific offers from partner merchants. As a result, we saw some great results in marketplace GMV, revenue, and RLTC. The highly-scalable, self-service Premium Adaptive Checkout package we launched for smaller merchants helped us capture more long-tail volume. And, as we lay the foundation of our international expansion, essentially all Canadian merchants have been migrated from the legacy PayBright platform to the Affirm tech stack, enabling merchant expansion projects in Canada while lowering transaction costs. Increasing frequency Frequency is the word you will hear increasingly more often from us in FY’24 as we scale the officially rebranded Affirm Card (formerly Debit+). To get the user comprehension exactly right and achieve target unit economics, we rebuilt parts of this product more than once. And while it took time (and we are far from done), I am glad we did the extra laps – the product is so much better for it. Affirm Card is what we’d set out to build over a decade ago: the unbundled credit product – access to transactional credit everywhere you need it, transparently priced, free of gotchas and junk fees. The Affirm Card has a very full development roadmap ahead, but we like the early metrics. We have been adding approximately 75,000 active cardholders per month since late May, and we have over 300,000 active cardholders as of mid-August. Affirm Card GMV was over $70 million in July. Affirm Card consumers already transact three times more often than the Affirm average.
5 Note: All comparisons throughout this letter are against the third quarter of fiscal year 2022, unless otherwise noted. Affirm | FQ4’23 Shareholder Letter Our one-time virtual card and Affirm Card GMV accelerated sequentially to 37% year-over-year, up from 24% in FQ3’23, and 9% in FQ2’23 with Affirm Card as the main driver of the acceleration. We are pleased to report that the Affirm Card’s unit economics are in line with Affirm’s overall RLTC as a percentage of GMV. I could not be more excited about what’s coming to the Affirm Card next. Over 40% of Affirm Card transactions are “pay now” – casual purchases, subscriptions, etc. We are working on all sorts of great reasons to make Affirm Card our consumers’ primary card: special deals from our vast merchant network, exclusive 0% programs, new payment plans, and rewards. Frequency is being there for all purchases, not just a handful per year, and the Affirm Card is a big leap toward that vision. In conclusion FY’23 was quite a test, and I am very proud of how the team delivered for our shareholders, capital partners, merchants, and consumers. Macroeconomic headwinds persist and more challenges are certain to come, but I think we have proven that Affirm has the talent and the grit to take them on. Responsive to whatever the short term brings, we remain focused on the long-term goals of the business: ● offer responsible access to credit for consumers, while maintaining excellent credit quality, ● deliver best-in-class value for merchants and platform partners, ● grow the Affirm network in both reach and frequency, and do it profitably, ● and continue to invent and scale new products. A huge thank you to all the dedicated, resilient, hard-working Affirmers in the U.S., Canada, U.K., Spain, Poland, and beyond, who make everything we accomplish possible. On to the tests of FY’24 and beyond, as we continue executing our mission: to deliver honest financial products that improve lives. Thank you for reading this letter, and we look forward to sharing more of our long-term growth strategy with you at our Investor Forum on November 14th in New York. Onward, Max
We delivered another strong quarter with all financial metrics coming in better than the outlook that we shared in May. Revenue from both merchants and consumers showed meaningful acceleration, and we continued to deliver strong credit results. This quality outperformance helped drive excellent RLTC this quarter. Further, we achieved our goal of becoming profitable on an adjusted operating income basis exiting FY’23. We also expect to be profitable on an adjusted operating income basis for the full year FY’24. We continued to carefully manage expenses during the quarter. This allowed us to deliver notable operating leverage, particularly on the General and Administrative and Sales and Marketing expense line items. This discipline has enabled us to continue to invest in product initiatives, such as Affirm Card. Our credit outcomes were strong, with delinquencies declining quarter on quarter and outperforming the seasonal increase in delinquencies that we have observed in previous fiscal fourth quarters. This consistent credit performance helped enable our Capital team to continue increasing our funding capacity in a sustainable way. In summary We responded to a challenging macroeconomic environment in FY’23. Despite significant changes in interest rates and consumer demand, we still delivered good credit results, unit economics, and GMV growth. We also demonstrated that the business can continue to expand profitably even in a high interest rate environment. Delivering these outcomes enabled us to achieve profitability on an adjusted operating income basis as we exited the fiscal year. This enables us to continue investing in commercial and product initiatives that fuel our growth. We look forward to sharing an update on these initiatives with you at our Investor Forum on November 14th. Financial Update from Michael Linford, CFO 6Affirm | FQ4’23 Shareholder Letter 6 GROSS MERCHANDISE VOLUME $5.5B ↑ 25% year-over-year TOTAL REVENUE $446M ↑ 22% year-over-year 8.1% of GMV REVENUE LESS TRANSACTION COSTS (“RLTC”) $182M ↓ 1% year-over-year 3.3% of GMV
FQ4’23 financial highlights GMV grew 25% year-over-year to $5.5 billion. On a two-year basis, GMV grew at a 49% compounded annual growth rate. GMV came in better than the outlook we provided in May. We observed particularly strong demand at two of our enterprise platform partners. Our direct-to-consumer (D2C) business was also an important contributor to our overall GMV performance, with Affirm Card contributing roughly $130 million in GMV during the quarter versus <$20 million in FQ3’23 and <$10 million during FQ4’22. Category performance continued to be bifurcated, with discretionary services categories such as travel and ticketing performing strongly, while GMV in discretionary goods categories such as sporting goods, consumer electronics, and home and lifestyle declined year-over-year. Revenue grew 22% year-over-year to $446 million. Revenue as a percentage of GMV declined slightly to 8.1% due to an ongoing mix shift towards interest-bearing products, for which we earn revenue over the life of the loan when on our balance sheet. Our 36% APR initiative somewhat offset these headwinds and had a favorable impact on revenue during the quarter. RLTC declined 1% year-over-year to $182 million, or 3.3% of GMV, as we continued to absorb the impact of higher funding costs. Though we continued to add capacity across the ABS and forward flow channels, we sold fewer loans as a percentage of GMV than in prior quarters. While funding loans with warehouse facilities and consolidated ABS allows us to capture a greater proportion of the economics over the life of the loan, in the short-term, it reduces total revenue and RLTC as a percentage of GMV in the quarter of origination. Based upon the current interest rate curve, we expect funding costs to remain a headwind to RLTC as a percentage of GMV during FY’24. However, on a year-over-year basis we expect RLTC as a percentage of GMV to begin to stabilize in FQ2’24 as the impact of our pricing initiatives offsets the impact of higher funding costs. Relative to the expectations embedded in the outlook that we provided in May, RLTC outperformed due to higher than expected network revenue at a large enterprise platform partner. Additionally, we generated more GMV and thus interest revenue from interest-bearing products than initially anticipated. 7Affirm | FQ4’23 Shareholder Letter FUNDING 2.3% 30+ day delinquency rate (ex-Peloton and Pay in 4) 30bp improvement vs. FQ3’23 and FQ4’22 CREDIT $2.1B Cash and available-for-sale securities ↑ $35M vs. FQ3’23 LIQUIDITY $11.7B total funding capacity at quarter end ↑ $300M vs. FQ3’23 ↑ $1.1B vs. FQ4’22
Operating Income (Loss) was ($244) million, compared to ($277) million in FQ4’22. Operating Income (Loss) as a percentage of revenue, or Operating Margin, was (55%) in the period, compared to (76%) during FQ4’22. The primary drivers of the improvement in Operating Income (Loss) were a reduction in Sales and Marketing and General and Administrative expenses, in part due to the restructuring that we announced in mid-February. Adjusted Operating Income (Loss)1 was $15 million compared to ($29) million in FQ4’22. Adjusted Operating Income (Loss) as a percentage of Revenue, or Adjusted Operating Margin, was 3% during the period compared to (8%) during FQ4’22. Adjusted Operating Income (Loss) excludes the impact of enterprise warrant and share-based expenses, stock-based compensation expense, charges associated with the restructuring we announced in February, and other non- cash items. Primarily due to the outperformance of RLTC, we achieved profitability on an adjusted operating income basis one quarter earlier than we initially expected. We therefore exited the year profitable, consistent with the goal that we first outlined to investors in May 2022. We accomplished this goal despite a >400bps adverse movement in the Fed Funds Rate during that time period and a generally less constructive funding environment. Active merchant count grew 8% year-over-year to 254,000 merchants, and merchants with >$1,000 in trailing-twelve-month GMV grew 16% year-over-year to 96,000. We continued to see good traction onboarding long-tail merchants through certain platform partnerships, with our Stripe partnership being a notable highlight. Active consumer count grew 18% year-over-year to 16.5 million. Excluding Returnly, active consumer count grew 20% to 15.6 million. Transactions per active consumer grew 30% year-over- year, or 29% excluding Returnly, to 3.9 compared to 3.0 during FQ4’22. 8Affirm | Shareholder LetterFQ4’23 Sha eholder Letter 1 Information about Affirm's use of non-GAAP financial measures is provided under "Key Operating Metrics, Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Supplemental Performance Indicators" and "Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures" below, and reconciliations of GAAP results to non-GAAP results are provided in the tables at the end of this letter.
Update on our Direct-to-Consumer (D2C) business Affirm Card empowers consumers to use Affirm with several new features: a physical debit card, a persistent account number, and the ability to pay now for transactions. Following the introduction of Affirm Card, our D2C business now consists of two transaction types: ● Affirm Marketplace: transactions initiated by consumers through the Affirm mobile app or Affirm website but not facilitated via the Affirm Card. These transactions may occur either via a one-time use virtual card, or via a direct integration with the merchant. Affirm Marketplace generated approximately $5 billion in GMV in FY’23 and accounted for more than 95% of total D2C GMV during the period. ● Affirm Card: transactions initiated by consumers via Affirm Card rather than through an Affirm direct integration checkout flow. These transactions may be initiated either through the Affirm app or via a physical card. Overall, the D2C business accounted for approximately 25% of our GMV in FY’23, with about 2 million of our active consumers using one of our D2C products. While we only began scaling Affirm Card in FH2’23, we are seeing strong consumer demand for the product and expect it to contribute meaningfully to overall growth of the D2C business in FY’24. 9 Affirm Direct-to-Consumer GMV ($ million) We are also seeing encouraging initial signs that Affirm Card is capturing consumers’ daily and in- store spend. During FQ4’23, 24% of Affirm Card spend was in store, a 9x uplift from Affirm overall. Additionally, Affirm Card consumers transact 3x more frequently, on average, than overall Affirm consumers. Affirm | FQ4’23 Shareholder Letter 9X higher in-store spend with Affirm Card vs. Affirm overall
10 Affirm Card unit economics and GMV mix Affirm Card delivered good unit economics during FQ4’23, with Card volumes delivering a similar level of RLTC as a percentage of GMV as Affirm overall. This was driven by a favorable product mix with high-margin, interest-bearing loans, accounting for approximately 80% of Affirm Card GMV and 50% of transactions. For comparison, lower-margin Pay Now debit transactions accounted for approximately 10% of Affirm Card GMV and 40% of transactions. Affirm | FQ4’23 Shareholder Letter Affirm Card Transaction Count by Type (FQ4’23) Pricing initiatives We continued to make good progress implementing the new APR cap, with approximately 70% of interest-bearing GMV offered at up to a 36% APR at the end of July, up from 55% at the end of March. Additionally, merchants that accounted for an additional ~5% of interest-bearing GMV have agreed in principle to a 36% APR cap. We also continue to engage in discussions with the remaining merchant partners that have not yet agreed to the new rate cap. Mix of Loans at >30% APR +50 basis points in weighted-average interest-bearing APR at origination since March +210 basis points in weighted-average interest-bearing APR at origination since September
11Affirm | FQ4’23 Shareholder Letter Credit quality All key loan delinquency rates, excluding Pay in 4 and Peloton loans, sequentially improved during the quarter and continued to perform better than in comparable periods in both FY’22 and pre-pandemic years. This performed better than our expectation that delinquencies would begin to seasonally increase during FQ4’23. Nonetheless, we do expect this seasonal increase to occur during the first half of FY’24. Select consumer lenders include Bread Financial, Capital One, Discover, and Synchrony Financial. Non-Prime receivable mix as of June 30, 2023 or most recently available period, based upon publicly available data. Non-Prime is generally defined as a FICO score below 650 to 660. U.S. loans only.

We also continued to deliver better credit outcomes compared to certain consumer lending peers, as measured by 30+ day delinquencies excluding Peloton and Pay in 4 loans. This is despite having a higher mix of non-prime receivables compared to this peer group.

Capital and funding update Our funding capacity increased to $11.7 billion at the end of June, up from $11.4 billion at the end of March. This increase was primarily driven by the $400 million ABS offering that we completed in April. This offering was an expansion of our existing 2023-A securitization and received strong market interest, with the final order book 3.1x oversubscribed. Additionally, we onboarded a new forward flow partner and optimized our funding book by winding down a higher cost, under-utilized warehouse facility and replacing that capacity with a lower cost facility. During June, we also successfully onboarded a third originating bank partner. In order to further diversify our originating bank partnerships, we continue to explore additional partners as we manage the business with our growth and scale aspirations in mind. Capital allocation and liquidity At the end of June, we had $2.1 billion in total liquidity split between cash and securities available for sale, up slightly from our $2.0 billion in total liquidity at the end of March. Against this amount, we had $1.4 billion in convertible debt. As previously announced, in June the Affirm board of directors authorized the repurchase of up to $800 million in aggregate principal amount of our outstanding convertible debt. We have not executed any repurchases under this authorization to date. These repurchases may be made from time to time through December 31, 2023 in privately negotiated transactions. Subject to market conditions, we will continue to evaluate opportunities to optimize the debt capital structure and proactively manage long-term liabilities.

Financial Outlook 13Affirm | FQ4’23 Shareholder Letter We expect to achieve full year profitability, on an Adjusted Operating Income basis, in FY’24. Our outlook incorporates the following assumptions: Interest rates and macroeconomic environment ● The current forward interest rate curve and negative consumer sentiment will persist through the remainder of the fiscal year ending June 30, 2024, with no improvement in macroeconomic conditions. ● We assume that student loan payments will resume on October 1, 2023. We are incorporating consumers’ student loan balances into our underwriting decisions, and therefore expect the resumption of loan repayments to be a modest headwind to our FY’24 GMV. Seasonality and product mix ● We expect increased consumer demand for our financing products in the fourth quarter of the calendar year, which is our second fiscal quarter, resulting in a quarterly high point for GMV. ● We expect our second fiscal quarter to represent a quarterly low point for both Revenue as a percentage of GMV and RLTC as a percentage of GMV driven by the timing mismatch of Revenue and the Provision for Credit Losses in our business. ● The reduced Revenue and RLTC as a percentage of GMV in our second fiscal quarter may result in adjusted operating losses in the period. Pricing ● We expect to continue to realize year-over-year increases in the weighted-average APRs for interest-bearing loans. Product ● Our outlook includes the expected financial impact of the continued ramp of our Affirm Card offerings. Funding ● We expect Equity Capital Required (“ECR”) as a percentage of Total Platform Portfolio (“ECR Ratio”) to peak at approximately 6.5% in our first fiscal quarter and decrease thereafter.
14 3 A reconciliation of adjusted operating margin to the comparable GAAP measure is not available on a forward-looking basis without unreasonable effort due to the uncertainty regarding, and the potential variability of, expenses that may be incurred in the future. Affirm | FQ4’23 Shareholder Letter In light of the current macroeconomic volatility, we are providing an initial outlook for FY’24 that is focused on the goals and operating principles by which we expect to manage the business this year. The following summarizes Affirm's financial outlook for full year FY’24: ● GMV of more than $24 billion ● Revenue as a percentage of GMV similar to FY’23 ● Revenue Less Transaction Costs as a percentage of GMV similar to FY’23 ● Adjusted Operating Margin3 of more than 2 percent ● Weighted Average Shares Outstanding of 313 million The following table summarizes Affirm's financial outlook for the first fiscal quarter of 2024: FISCAL Q1 2024 GMV $5.30 to $5.50 billion Revenue $430 to $455 million Transaction Costs $255 to $265 million Revenue Less Transaction Costs $175 to $190 million Adjusted Operating Margin3 2 to 4 percent Weighted Average Shares Outstanding 304 million

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.

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, non-GAAP sales and marketing expense, non-GAAP general and administrative expense, 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. 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. 20Affirm | FQ4’23 Shareholder Letter
