SAN CARLOS, Calif., March 13, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Oportun Financial Corporation (Nasdaq: OPRT) (“Oportun”, or the "Company") today reported financial results for the fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2022.
“The fourth quarter exemplified the resilience of Oportun and our business model amidst a difficult macroeconomic backdrop. I'm pleased that we delivered a profitable quarter on an adjusted basis, despite the rising rate environment and the impact of inflation," said Raul Vazquez, CEO of Oportun. "We grew our average daily principal balance sequentially by over 5%, leading to total revenues of $262 million, while focusing on returning borrowers and continuing to drive down our first payment defaults to pre-pandemic levels. We remain vigilant in managing our portfolio of loans underwritten prior to July credit tightening and continue to expect our fourth quarter charge-off rate of 12.8% will reflect the peak of this cycle. Our initial 2023 guidance reflects strong anticipated performance from the second quarter onward, benefiting from expense reductions, prudent originations and markedly lower charge-offs. Also, with the recent launch of the Oportun Mobile App, our platform is in place to build long-term, highly engaged relationships with our members in order to meet their borrowing, saving, budgeting, and spending needs."

Financial and Operating Results
All figures are as of December 31, 2022, unless otherwise noted.
Growth Highlights
Members – Members as of the end of the fourth quarter grew to 1.88 million, as compared to 1.86 million at the end of the prior-quarter, a 4% annualized growth rate for the quarter.
Products – Products as of the end of the fourth quarter grew to 2.01 million, as compared to 1.98 million at the end of the prior-quarter, a 5% annualized growth rate for the quarter.
Originations – Aggregate Originations for the fourth quarter were $610 million, a decrease of 29% as compared to $865 million in the prior-year quarter. Aggregate Originations for the full year 2022 were $2.9 billion, an increase of 27% as compared to $2.3 billion in 2021. The decrease in the fourth quarter 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 due to the focus on lending to returning members.
Fourth Quarter 2022 Financial Results
Revenue – Total revenue for the fourth quarter was $262 million, an increase of 35% as compared to total revenue of $194 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 fourth quarter was $143 million, a decrease of 11% as compared to Net Revenue of $161 million in the prior-year quarter. Net Revenue declined from the prior-year quarter due to higher charge-offs and increased interest expense, partially offset by increased revenue.
Operating Expenses and Adjusted Operating Expenses – For the fourth quarter, total operating expense was $151 million, an increase of 8% as compared to $140 million in the prior-year quarter. Adjusted Operating Expense, which excludes stock-based compensation expense and certain non-recurring charges, increased 10% year-over-year to $137 million. For the second half, Adjusted Operating Expense was flat with the first half at $273 million as targeted by management.
Net Income (Loss) and Adjusted Net Income (Loss) – Net loss was $8.4 million, as compared to net income of $14 million in the prior-year quarter. Adjusted Net Income was $4.6 million, a decrease of 82% from $26 million in the prior-year quarter. The decreases in net income and Adjusted Net Income are attributable to increased operating expenses, increased interest expense and higher net charge-offs, partially offset by increased revenues.
Earnings (Loss) Per Share and Adjusted EPS – GAAP net loss per share, basic and diluted, were $0.25 and $0.25, respectively, as compared to basic and diluted earnings per share of $0.49 and $0.46, respectively, in the prior-year quarter. Adjusted EPS was $0.14 as compared to $0.82 in the prior-year quarter.
Adjusted EBITDA – Adjusted EBITDA was $(34) million, down from $23 million in the prior-year quarter.
Full Year 2022 Financial Results
Revenue – Total revenue for the full year was $953 million, an increase of 52% as compared to total revenue of $627 million in 2021. The increase was primarily attributable to higher interest income due to growth in the Company's underlying portfolio.
Operating Expenses and Adjusted Operating Expenses – For the full year, total operating expense was $716 million, an increase of 53% as compared to $468 million in 2021. This includes the impact of a $108 million third quarter non-cash, non-recuring goodwill impairment charge. Adjusted Operating Expense, which excludes stock-based compensation expense and certain non-recurring charges, increased 29% year-over-year to $546 million, primarily driven by the $59 million increase of Digit operating expenses, post-merger, which were not present for the full year 2021.
Net Income (Loss) and Adjusted Net Income (Loss) – Net loss was $78 million, as compared to a net income of $47 million in 2021. Adjusted Net Income was $69 million, as compared to Adjusted Net Income of $79 million in 2021. The decreases in net income and Adjusted Net Income are attributable to increased operating expenses, increased interest expense and higher net charge-offs, partially offset by increased revenues. The increased operating expenses include the impact of the $108 million third quarter non-cash, non-recurring goodwill impairment charge.
Earnings (Loss) Per Share and Adjusted EPS – GAAP net loss per share, basic and diluted, were $2.37 and $2.37, respectively, for the full year 2022 as compared to basic and diluted earnings per share of $1.68 and $1.56, respectively, in 2021. Adjusted EPS was $2.09 in 2022 as compared to $2.60 in 2021.
Adjusted EBITDA – Adjusted EBITDA was $(10) million, down from $47 million in 2021. Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of total revenue was (1.1)% and 7.5% for 2022 and 2021, respectively.
Credit and Operating Metrics
Net Charge-Off Rate – The Annualized Net Charge-Off Rate for the fourth quarter was 12.8%, compared to 6.8% for the prior-year quarter, and 10.1% for the full year 2022, compared to 6.8% for 2021 and 9.8% for 2020. The charge-off rate in 2021 benefited from the impact of government stimulus and was below the Company's historic average.
30+ Day Delinquency Rate – 30+ Day Delinquency Rate was 5.6% at the end of 2022, compared to 3.9% at the end of 2021. 30+ Day Delinquencies Rates on August, September and October 2022 vintages originated since significant July credit tightening were below the levels for comparable vintages originated in 2019.
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 fourth quarter was 57.8% as compared to 71.9% in the corresponding prior-year quarter. Adjusted Operating Efficiency in the fourth quarter was 52.4%, as compared to 64.5% in the corresponding prior-year quarter. For the full year 2022, Operating Efficiency was 75.2% as compared to 74.6% for 2021. Adjusted Operating Efficiency for the full year 2022 was 57.3%, as compared to 67.3% for 2021. The decline in Operating Efficiency and Adjusted Operating Efficiency reflect the Company's revenue growing more quickly than operating expenses. Adjusted Operating Efficiency excludes stock-based compensation expense and certain non-recurring charges, such as impairment charges, the Company's retail network optimization expenses, and acquisition and integration related expenses.
Return on Equity ("ROE") and Adjusted ROE – ROE for the fourth quarter was (6.1)%, compared to 10.1% in the corresponding prior-year quarter. Adjusted ROE for the fourth quarter was 3.3%, compared to 18.2% in the corresponding prior-year quarter. ROE for the full year 2022 was (13.5)%, as compared to 8.9% for 2021. Adjusted ROE for the full year 2022 was 12.1%, as compared to 14.7% for 2021.
New Credit Products
Secured personal loans – As of December 31, 2022, the Company had a secured personal loan receivables balance of $127 million, up 117% from $58 million at the end of 2021, and up 9% quarter-over-quarter.
Credit card receivables – As of December 31, 2022, the Company had a credit card receivables balance of $131 million, up 95% from $67 million at the end of 2021, and up 1% quarter-over-quarter.

Cost of Debt and Debt-to-Equity were 3.7% and 5.3x, respectively, as of and for the year ended December 31, 2022 as compared to 3.1% and 3.6x, respectively, as of and for the year ended December 31, 2021. As of December 31, 2022, the Company had $357 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 December 31, 2022, the Company had $73 million of undrawn capacity on its existing $150 million credit card warehouse line. The Company's credit card warehouse was amended in March 2023 to lower the capacity to $120 million and extend the commitment through December 2024. The Company amended its residual financing facility in February 2023 to defer $42 million of scheduled principal payments into 2024. In addition, the Company recently amended its senior secured term loan to be able to borrow up to an additional $75 million. The Company borrowed the first $21 million and will receive $4 million by the end of the month. The Company may borrow additional $25 million tranches in April and June, subject to the approval of its lenders.
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.

ABOUT NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
(unaudited)
The press release dated March 13, 2023 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.
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.
- The Company believes it is useful to exclude depreciation and amortization and stock-based compensation expense because they are non-cash charges.
- The Company believes it is useful to exclude the impact of interest expense associated with the Company's Corporate Financing, as it views this expense as related to its capital structure rather than its funding.
- The Company excludes the impact of certain non-recurring charges, such as expenses associated with a litigation reserve, its retail network optimization plan, impairment charges and acquisition and integration related expenses, because it does not believe that these items reflect ongoing business operations.
- The Company also reverses origination fees for Loans Receivable at Fair Value, net. The Company believes it is beneficial to exclude the uncollected portion of such origination fees, because such amounts do not represent cash received.
- The Company also reverses the fair value mark-to-market adjustment because it is a non-cash adjustment.
Adjusted Net Income
The Company defines Adjusted Net Income as net income adjusted to eliminate the effect of certain items as described below. The Company believes that Adjusted Net Income is an important measure of operating performance because it allows management, investors, and Oportun's board of directors to evaluate and compare its operating results, including return on capital and operating efficiencies, from period to period, excluding the after-tax impact of non-cash, stock-based compensation expense and certain non-recurring charges.
- The Company believes it is useful to exclude the impact of income tax expense (benefit), as reported, because historically it has included irregular income tax items that do not reflect ongoing business operations. The Company also includes the impact of normalized income tax expense by applying a normalized statutory tax rate.
- The Company believes it is useful to exclude the impact of certain non-recurring charges, such as expenses associated with a litigation reserve, its retail network optimization plan, impairment charges and acquisition and integration related expenses, because it does not believe that these items reflect its ongoing business operations.
- The Company believes it is useful to exclude stock-based compensation expense because it is a non-cash charge.
Adjusted Operating Efficiency and Adjusted Operating Expense
The Company defines Adjusted Operating Efficiency as Adjusted Operating Expense divided by total revenue. The Company defines Adjusted Operating Expense as total operating expenses adjusted to exclude stock-based compensation expense and certain non-recurring charges, such as a litigation reserve, retail network optimization expenses, impairment charges and acquisition and integration related expenses. The Company believes Adjusted Operating Efficiency is an important measure because it allows management, investors and Oportun's board of directors to evaluate how efficiently the Company is managing costs relative to revenue. The Company believes Adjusted Operating Expense is an important measure because it allows management, investors and Oportun's board of directors to evaluate and compare its operating costs from period to period, excluding the impact of non-cash, stock-based compensation expense and certain non-recurring charges.
Adjusted Return on Equity
The Company defines Adjusted Return on Equity (“ROE”) as annualized Adjusted Net Income divided by average stockholders’ equity. Average stockholders’ equity is an average of the beginning and ending stockholders’ equity balance for each period. The Company believes Adjusted ROE is an important measure because it allows management, investors and its board of directors to evaluate the profitability of the business in relation to its stockholders' equity and how efficiently it generates income from stockholders' equity.
Adjusted EPS
The Company defines Adjusted EPS as Adjusted Net Income divided by weighted average diluted shares outstanding.

* Due to the uncertainty in macroeconomic conditions, we are unable to precisely forecast the fair value mark-to-market adjustments on our loan portfolio and asset-backed notes. As a result, while we expect there to be a fair value mark-to-market adjustment which will significantly increase GAAP net loss, the net loss number shown above assumes no change in the fair value mark-to-market adjustment. The impact of the actual fair value mark-to-market adjustment does not impact the calculation of Adjusted EBITDA because it has an equal and offsetting impact to net loss on a GAAP basis and our calculation of Adjusted EBITDA.
