Forward-Looking Statements

This press release includes “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the “safe harbor” provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. OppFi’s actual results may differ from its expectations, estimates and projections and consequently, you should not rely on these forward-looking statements as predictions of future events. Words such as “expect,” “estimate,” “project,” “budget,” “forecast,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “plan,” “may,” “will,” “could,” “should,” “believes,” “predicts,” “potential,” “possible,” “continue,” and similar expressions may identify forward-looking statements, but the absence of these words does not mean that a statement is not forward-looking. These forward-looking statements include, without limitation, OppFi’s expectations with respect to its full year 2024 guidance, the future performance of OppFi’s platform, and expectations for OppFi’s growth, new products, and future financial performance. These forward-looking statements are based on OppFi’s current expectations and assumptions about future events and are based on currently available information as to the outcome and timing of future events. These forward-looking statements involve significant risks and uncertainties that could cause the actual results to differ materially from the expected results. Most of these factors are outside OppFi’s control and are difficult to predict. Factors that may cause such differences include, but are not limited to: the impact of general economic conditions, including economic slowdowns, inflation, interest rate changes, recessions, and tightening of credit markets on OppFi’s business; the impact of challenging macroeconomic and marketplace conditions, including lingering effects of COVID-19 on OppFi’s business; the impact of stimulus or other government programs; whether OppFi will be successful in obtaining declaratory relief against the Commissioner of the Department of Financial Protection and Innovation for the State of California; whether OppFi will be subject to AB 539; whether OppFi’s bank partners will continue to lend in California and whether OppFi’s financing sources will continue to finance the purchase of participation rights in loans originated by OppFi’s bank partners in California; the impact that events involving financial institutions or the financial services industry generally, such as actual concerns or events involving liquidity, defaults, or non-performance, may have on OppFi’s business; risks related to the material weakness in OppFi’s internal controls over financial reporting; the ability of OppFi to grow and manage growth profitably and retain its key employees; risks related to new products; risks related to evaluating and potentially consummating acquisitions; concentration risk; risks related to OppFi’s ability to comply with various covenants in its corporate and warehouse credit facilities; costs related to the business combination; changes in applicable laws or regulations; the possibility that OppFi may be adversely affected by other economic, business, and/or competitive factors; risks related to management transitions; risks related to the restatement of OppFi’s financial statements and any accounting deficiencies or weaknesses related thereto; and other risks and uncertainties indicated from time to time in OppFi’s filings with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission, in particular, contained in the section or sections captioned “Risk Factors.” OppFi cautions that the foregoing list of factors is not exclusive, and readers should not place undue reliance upon any forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date made. OppFi does not undertake or accept any obligation or undertaking to release publicly any updates or revisions to any forward-looking statements to reflect any change in its expectations or any change in events, conditions or circumstances on which any such statement is based.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release includes certain non-GAAP financial measures that are unaudited and do not conform to GAAP, such as Adjusted EBT, Adjusted Net Income, and Adjusted EPS. Adjusted EBT is defined as Net Income, adjusted for (1) income tax expense; (2) change in fair value of warrant liabilities; (3) other addbacks and one-time expenses, net; and (4) other income. Adjusted Net Income is defined as Adjusted EBT as defined above, adjusted for taxes assuming a tax rate of 23.56% for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and a tax rate of 24.14% for the three months ended March 31, 2023, reflecting the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21% and a blended statutory rate for state income taxes, in order to allow for a comparison with other publicly traded companies. Adjusted EPS is defined as Adjusted Net Income as defined above, divided by weighted average diluted shares outstanding, which represent shares of both classes of common stock outstanding, excluding 25,500,000 shares related to earnout obligations and including the impact of unvested restricted stock units, unvested performance stock units, and the employee stock purchase plan. Adjusted EPS is useful to investors and others because, due to OppFi’s Up-C structure, Basic EPS calculated on a GAAP basis excludes a large percentage of OppFi’s outstanding shares of common stock, which are Class V Voting Stock, and Diluted EPS calculated on a GAAP basis excludes dilutive securities, including Class V Voting Stock, in any period in which OppFi reports a loss as dilutive securities are considered to be antidilutive. These non-GAAP financial measures have not been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and may be different from non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. OppFi believes that the use of these non-GAAP financial measures provides an additional tool for investors to use in evaluating ongoing operating results and trends. These non-GAAP measures with comparable names should not be considered in isolation from, or as an alternative to, financial measures determined in accordance with GAAP. See “Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” below for reconciliations for OppFi's non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures. A reconciliation of projected full year 2024 Adjusted Net Income and projected full year 2024 Adjusted EPS to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures is not included in this press release because, without unreasonable efforts, the Company is unable to predict with reasonable certainty the amount or timing of non-GAAP adjustments that are used to calculate these measures.

Total cash and restricted cash increased by $14.8 million as of March 31, 2024 compared to December 31, 2023 driven by an increase in received payments relative to originations. Finance receivables at fair value decreased by $51.3 million as of March 31, 2024 compared to December 31, 2023 from lower origination volume due to seasonality. Finance receivables at amortized cost, net decreased by $0.1 million as of March 31, 2024 compared to December 31, 2023 due to the continued rundown of SalaryTap finance receivables. Other assets decreased by $1.8 million as of March 31, 2024 compared to December 31, 2023 mainly due to a decrease in property, equipment, and software of $0.6 million, a decrease in the operating lease right of use asset of $0.4 million, and a decrease in capitalized debt issuance costs of $0.4 million.

Accounts payable and accrued expenses decreased by $2.4 million as of March 31, 2024 compared to December 31, 2023 driven by a decrease in accounts payable of $0.5 million and accrued expenses of $2.0 million. Other liabilities decreased by $0.9 million as of March 31, 2024 compared to December 31, 2023 driven by a decrease in the operating lease liability of $0.4 million and the tax receivable agreement liability of $0.5 million. Total debt decreased by $33.1 million as of March 31, 2024 compared to December 31, 2023 driven by a decrease in utilization of revolving lines of credit of $32.4 million and a decrease in notes payable of $0.7 million. Warrant liabilities decreased by $5.2 million due to the decrease in the valuation of the warrants as of March 31, 2024 compared to December 31, 2023. Total stockholders’ equity increased by $3.3 million as of March 31, 2024 compared to December 31, 2023 driven by net income and stock-based compensation.

Financial Capacity and Capital Resources

As of March 31, 2024, OppFi had $47.2 million in unrestricted cash, an increase of $15.4 million from December 31, 2023. As of March 31, 2024, OppFi had an additional $224.7 million of unused debt capacity under its financing facilities for future availability, representing a 43% overall undrawn capacity, an increase from $192.3 million as of December 31, 2023. The increase in undrawn debt was driven primarily by a strong tax refund season that drove more on-time customer payments which improved the Company’s ability to self-fund. Including total financing commitments of $525.0 million and cash on the balance sheet of $88.7 million, OppFi had approximately $613.7 million in funding capacity as of March 31, 2024.

Subsequent to the quarter ended March 31, 2024, the Company utilized $12.7 million in cash to fund the previously disclosed special dividend and special distribution.
