Management Commentary
- Strategic momentum: “Model 6 has continued to drive incremental origination growth while maintaining our risk standards… we are raising our full-year guidance for both revenue and adjusted net income.” — Todd Schwartz (PR) .
- Non-GAAP vs GAAP optics: “On a GAAP basis, our net income decreased… primarily due to a $33 million noncash charge reflecting the change in fair value of our outstanding warrants” — Pamela Johnson (CFO) .
- Technology roadmap: “Our new loan origination application named LOLA… integrating with AI tools… expected to enhance customer experiences, improve satisfaction, and increase automation” — Todd Schwartz .
- Capital allocation: “We would be considering stock repurchases… mismatch between enterprise value and stock price” — Pamela Johnson; “we think [stock] is very, very disconnected” — Todd Schwartz .
Q&A Highlights
- Credit/macro posture: Management remains cautious amid inflation/unemployment data uncertainty; Model 6 enables dynamic “read and react” underwriting with focus on long-term charge-off rates .
- Yield trajectory: Expectation for yields to be stable to slightly increasing given risk-based pricing adopted last year .
- Recoveries & collections: Recoveries rose to ~$10.7M vs ~$8.4M in Q2 last year, supporting lower net charge-offs .
- Average loan size: Incremental increase (~$100 YoY); larger loans still infiltrating portfolio, not fully rolled through yet .
- Capital returns: Buybacks under consideration given perceived valuation disconnect; later in August, authorization increased by $20M .
Estimates Context
- Q2 2025 S&P Global consensus: Primary EPS $0.295*, Revenue $141.2M*, both compared against actual adjusted EPS $0.45 and total revenue $142.4M. EPS beat by ~52%; revenue beat by ~0.9% .
- Adjustments: For OPFI, Street appears to track adjusted EPS; GAAP diluted EPS was −$0.78 due to warrant mark-to-market .
- Implications: Expect upward estimate revisions to FY25 adjusted net income/EPS and revenue ranges following management’s guidance raise .

Key Takeaways for Investors
- Execution plus discipline: Record adjusted profitability and revenue with improved credit metrics and cost control underpinning raised FY25 guidance .
- Optical GAAP headwind is non-cash: Warrant fair value change drove GAAP EPS negativity; cash generation and adjusted metrics remain strong .
- Structural drivers: Higher yields, improved auto-approvals (80%), larger average loan sizes, and stronger recoveries support revenue/net revenue growth .
- Capital allocation optionality: Special dividend executed in Q2 and buyback authorization increased in August; further repurchases possible per call commentary .
- Risk monitoring: Macro/regulatory overhangs (inflation, unemployment, tariffs; California AB 539/DFPI) warrant continued attention; management remains cautious on credit posture .
- Near-term trading: Guidance raise plus beat on adjusted EPS/revenue are positive sentiment drivers; watch for estimate revisions and buyback pacing .
- Medium-term thesis: Technology investments (LOLA, AI integration) and Model 6 underwriting should sustain automation, conversion, and credit performance improvements .
