Oportun Reports Strong Third Quarter 2022 Financial Results

Total revenue of $250 million, growth of 57% year-over-year

Early-stage delinquencies trending down following July credit tightening

First payment defaults fall below 2019 levels

Raising full year 2022 revenue and earnings guidance

 

SAN CARLOS, Calif., Nov. 07, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Oportun Financial Corporation (Nasdaq: OPRT) (“Oportun”, or the "Company") today reported financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2022.

“Oportun delivered a strong third quarter, while exhibiting responsible growth and disciplined expense management amidst ongoing macroeconomic headwinds. I’m pleased that the further credit tightening actions we implemented in July are having their intended effect," said Raul Vazquez, CEO of Oportun. "Lowering our approval rates and shifting our focus towards returning members enabled us to drive down early stage delinquencies and first payment defaults, which ended the quarter below 2019 pre-pandemic levels. Nevertheless we continued to execute on our long-term growth strategy by adding high-quality new members at an annualized rate of 9% to total 1.9 million, with product adoption continuing to outpace membership at an annualized rate of 11%. We also raised additional capital with a new four-year $150 million senior secured term loan supporting our future securitization and warehouse line financings, and following the quarter completed our fourth securitization financing of the year. Our revised guidance reflects our current expectation that each quarter in 2022 will be profitable on an adjusted basis. We are raising our full year 2022 revenue guidance to a range between $946 to $951 million, and our Adjusted EPS guidance to a range between $2.19 to $2.25."

Financial and Operating Results

 

All figures are as of September 30, 2022, unless otherwise noted.

Growth Highlights

Members – Members as of the end of the third quarter grew to 1.9 million, up from 1.8 million as of the end of the prior-quarter, a 9% annualized growth rate for the quarter.

Products – Products as of the end of the third quarter grew to 2.0 million, up from 1.9 million as of the end of the prior-quarter, a 11% annualized growth rate for the quarter.

Originations – Aggregate Originations for the third quarter were $634 million, a decrease of 4% as compared to $662 million in the prior-year quarter. The decrease is primarily driven by fewer loans originated due to the Company tightening its credit underwriting standards and focusing lending towards existing and returning members to improve credit outcomes; partially offset by growth in average loan size.

Financial Results

Revenue – Total revenue for the third quarter was $250 million, an increase of 57% as compared to $159 million in the prior-year quarter. The increase was primarily attributable to higher interest income due to growth in the Company’s underlying portfolio. Net revenue for the third quarter was $147 million, an increase of 5% as compared to net revenue of $140 million in the prior-year quarter. Net revenue improved from the prior-year quarter due to higher revenue, partially offset by a net decrease in fair value of its loans.

Operating Expense and Adjusted Operating Expense – For the third quarter, total operating expense was $259 million, as compared to $111 million in the prior-year quarter. A non-cash, non-recurring goodwill impairment charge of $108 million was triggered in compliance with ASC 350 Intangibles – Goodwill and Other by the decrease in the Company’s market capitalization, which was primarily driven by macroeconomic conditions. The other intangibles acquired in connection with Digit were not impaired. Absent the impact of the goodwill impairment charge, total operating expense of $151 million declined 4% from $158 million in the prior-quarter, Adjusted Operating Expense, which excludes stock-based compensation expense and certain non-recurring charges, increased 27% year-over-year to $136 million, growing slower than total revenue which grew 57% in the same period. Adjusted Operating Expense improved sequentially from $140 million in the prior-quarter.

Net Income (Loss) and Adjusted Net Income – Net loss was $106 million as compared to net income of $23 million in the prior-year quarter, driven by the impact of the $108 million goodwill impairment charge. Adjusted Net Income was $8.4 million as compared to $24 million in the prior-year quarter. The decreases in net income and Adjusted Net Income are attributable to increased operating expenses and a net decrease in fair value, partially offset by increased revenues. For the first nine months of the year, Adjusted Net Income was $65 million, representing 23% year-over-year growth.

Earnings (Loss) Per Share and Adjusted EPS – GAAP net loss per share, basic and diluted, were both $3.21 for the three months ended September 30, 2022. GAAP earnings per share, basic and diluted, were $0.82 and $0.75, respectively, in the prior-year quarter. Adjusted Earnings Per Share was $0.25 as compared to $0.78 in the prior-year quarter. For the first nine months of the year, Adjusted Earnings Per Share was $1.95, representing 11% year-over-year growth.

Adjusted EBITDA – Adjusted EBITDA was a $6.2 million loss, down from a $18 million gain in the prior-year quarter. Adjusted EBITDA remained flat at $23 million for the first nine months of the year compared to the prior-year period.

Credit and Operating Metrics

Net Charge-Off Rate – The Annualized Net Charge-Off Rate for the quarter was 9.8%, compared to 5.5% for the prior-year quarter. Last year’s charge-off rate benefited from the impact of government stimulus and was below the Company’s historic average.

30+ Day Delinquency Rate – The Company’s 30+ Day Delinquency Rate was 5.4% at the end of the quarter, compared to 2.8% at the end of the prior-year quarter. The Company has seen a decrease in early-stage delinquencies, with 8 to 14 day delinquencies and 15 to 29 day delinquencies of 1.7% and 1.8%, respectively, as of September 30, 2022 as compared to 1.7% and 2.1%, respectively, as of July 31, 2022 when the Company further tightened its credit underwriting standards and focused lending towards existing and returning members to improve credit outcomes.

First Payment Defaults – First Payment Defaults on newly-originated loans are trending better than 2019 levels due to the Company’s tightening of credit underwriting standards and focusing lending towards existing and returning members to improve credit outcomes. The Company regards First Payment Defaults to be an early indicator of credit performance as the outstanding principal balance of loans that have their first payment past due are regarded as more likely to default and result in a charge-off. First Payment Defaults are calculated as the principal balance of any loan whose first payment becomes 30 days past due, divided by the aggregate principal balance of all loans originated during that same week.

Operating Efficiency and Adjusted Operating Efficiency – Operating Efficiency for the quarter was 104% as compared to 70% in the prior-year quarter. Adjusted Operating Efficiency for the third quarter was 54%, as compared to 67% in the prior-year quarter. Adjusted Operating Efficiency excludes stock-based compensation expense and certain non-recurring charges, such as the Company’s retail network optimization expenses, impairment charges and acquisition and integration related expenses. The decline in Operating Efficiency and Adjusted Operating Efficiency reflect the Company’s revenue growing more quickly than operating expenses.

Return On Equity ("ROE") and Adjusted ROE – ROE for the quarter was (70)%, as compared to 18% in the prior-year quarter.  Adjusted ROE for the quarter was 5.6%, as compared to 19% in the prior-year quarter. For the last twelve months, Adjusted ROE averaged 17%.

New Products

Secured personal loans – As of September 30, 2022, the Company had a secured personal loan receivables balance of $116 million, up 293% from $30 million at the end of the third quarter 2021.

Credit card receivables – As of September 30, 2022, the Company had a credit card receivables balance of $131 million, up 242% from $38 million at the end of the third quarter 2021.

Funding and Liquidity

As of September 30, 2022, total cash was $272 million, consisting of cash and cash equivalents of $176 million and restricted cash of $96 million. Cost of Debt and Debt-to-Equity were 3.9% and 5.2x, respectively, for and at the end of the third quarter 2022 as compared to Cost of Debt and Debt-to-Equity of 2.8% and 3.3x, respectively, for and at the end of the prior-year quarter. As of September 30, 2022, the Company had $309 million of undrawn capacity on its existing $600 million personal loan warehouse line. The Company’s personal loan warehouse line is committed through September 2024. As of September 30, 2022, the Company had $73 million of undrawn capacity on its existing $150 million credit card warehouse line. The Company’s credit card warehouse line is committed through December 2023.

On September 14, 2022, the Company entered into a credit agreement for a $150 million senior secured term loan. The term loan is scheduled to mature on September 14, 2026, and is not subject to amortization. Certain prepayments of the term loan are subject to a prepayment premium.

On November 3, 2022, the Company completed the issuance of $300 million of Series 2022-3 fixed rate asset-backed notes in a private asset-backed securitization transaction secured by a pool of unsecured and secured installment loans.

Oportun Financial Corporation
ABOUT NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
(unaudited)

 

The press release dated November 7, 2022 contains non-GAAP financial measures. The following tables reconcile the non-GAAP financial measures in that press release to the most directly comparable financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. These non-GAAP financial measures Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Operating Efficiency, Adjusted Operating Expense, Adjusted Return on Equity and Adjusted EPS.

The Company believes that the provision of these non-GAAP financial measures can provide useful measures for period-to-period comparisons of Oportun’s core business and useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating its operating results. However, non-GAAP financial measures are not calculated in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered as a substitute for, or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. These non-GAAP financial measures do not reflect a comprehensive system of accounting, differ from GAAP measures with the same names, and may differ from non-GAAP financial measures with the same or similar names that are used by other companies.

Adjusted EBITDA
The Company defines Adjusted EBITDA as net income, adjusted to eliminate the effect of certain items as described below. The Company believes that Adjusted EBITDA is an important measure because it allows management, investors and its board of directors to evaluate and compare operating results, including return on capital and operating efficiencies, from period to period by making the adjustments described below. In addition, it provides a useful measure for period-to-period comparisons of Oportun’s business, as it removes the effect of income taxes, certain non-cash items, variable charges and timing differences.

  • The Company believes it is useful to exclude the impact of income tax expense, as reported, because historically it has included irregular income tax items that do not reflect ongoing business operations.
