Shareholder Letter First Fiscal Quarter 2025


 
2Affirm FQ1’25 Shareholder Letter Fellow Affirm shareholders: Affirm galloped out of the gates in FQ1’25. We met or exceeded every metric provided in the August outlook: Max Levchin Founder and CEO We continued driving accelerated growth while delivering consistent credit outcomes and managing the business to our target of 3-4% RLTC as a percentage of GMV, which stood at 3.8% this quarter. Year-over-year GMV growth re-accelerated, and growth in active consumers accelerated for the third consecutive quarter. Transactions per active consumer grew 25% year over year to 5.1, and trailing 12-month GMV per active consumer grew 11% year over year to $1,500. We continue to expect to reach GAAP Operating Income profitability in FQ4’25. Gross Merchandise Volume (“GMV”) $7.6B +35% Operating Income (Loss) ($133M) +$77M Revenue $698M +41% Adjusted Operating Income1 $130M +$70M Revenue Less Transaction Costs (“RLTC”)1 $285M +34% Net Income (Loss) ($100M) +$72M All comparisons on a year-over-year basis 1Information 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.


 
3Affirm FQ1’25 Shareholder Letter 2Based upon Affirm internal estimates. U.S. e-commerce market size based upon U.S. Census Bureau data. Affirm’s pure-play competitors are Afterpay, Klarna, PayPal Pay Later, Sezzle, and Zip. These estimates exclude GMV and revenue from all other competitors, including post-purchase installment loans originated by card issuers. A few words on the state of the pay-later market and our position in it.2 While this is incremental merchant spend, strong transactional unit economics cannot be supplanted by ad revenue, because that guarantees misalignment with the merchant. If credit approvals become linked to ad revenues, the payment provider has a real incentive to steer a creditworthy consumer to an advertising merchant hoping to capture better economics, something we cannot abide. Because we insist on keeping each transaction intrinsically profitable, we always want more transactions with every one of our partners, making Affirm a partner of choice for so many enterprises. Estimated U.S. Pay-Later Penetration Rate As % of U.S. e-commerce; data based upon calendar quarter Estimated Affirm U.S. GMV Market Share As % of total estimated U.S. Pay-Later GMV; data based upon calendar quarter +2 p.p. How do we do it? Our financial incentives are aligned with both consumers and merchants. We do the hard work of underwriting monthly installments in addition to pay-in-four, which helps our borrowers by lowering monthly repayments. Our commitment to never charging late or hidden fees keeps our credit decisioning sharp: we only approve borrowers that we believe are willing and able to pay us back. As our active consumers near 20 million, we are seeing paid merchant ads in the Affirm app become an important revenue stream. We love using it to fund 0% and reduced-APR offers to delight our consumers and to meaningfully increase Affirm uptake at the point of sale. In other words, Affirm is growing faster than U.S. e-commerce itself (by well over 4x: 7% e-commerce growth in CQ2 vs. 31% for Affirm in CQ2 and 35% in CQ3), while earning more revenue in the U.S. than all of our pure-play competitors combined. We estimate that total U.S. pay-later GMV as a percentage of U.S. e-commerce reached approximately 7.4% in the second calendar quarter of 2024, adding about one percentage point over the preceding 12 months. Affirm accounted for 34% of that, up from 32% in the prior-year period. We also estimate that Affirm represented just over half of the total pay-later revenue earned in the U.S. during the second calendar quarter of 2024.


 
4Affirm FQ1’25 Shareholder Letter Although we've been highlighting Affirm Card progress in the last couple of these letters, the Card is proving to be a gift that keeps on giving, so a brief update is warranted. In fiscal Q1, Card growth accelerated on both the top and bottom line, each more than doubling year over year. We had over 1.4 million active cardholders at quarter end. As cohorts mature, we are observing all the right signs and signals: annualized GMV per user grew from $2,500 to over $3,000, and in-store usage grew from approximately 25% in early FY’24 to 40% in FQ4’24 and 45% in FQ1’25. Card credit outcomes and unit economics remain in-line with (or better than) the rest of the Affirm ecosystem, and we are excited about a few upcoming launches, including the rollout of Visa Flexible Credential to our current cardholders over the next few months, which should improve the economics further. Our Revenue team has been working hard to harmonize our many 0% and reduced-APR programs across the channels where Affirm is offered: point of sale, platforms, our app, digital wallets, and the Card. These offerings boost consumer uptake with deals truly unique to Affirm, and we are excited to see them offered to our most loyal and active consumers on the Affirm Card. We expect to continue expanding both card eligibility and individual purchasing power for cardholders. A few more brief highlights: ● Apple Pay: Went live with Apple Pay towards the end of the quarter in September, providing consumers with the option to pay over time with Affirm when checking out on Apple Pay online and in-app on iPhone and iPad. Excited to be working together to bring users even more ways to pay. ● You hear that, Doug? I’m coming to London! Launched in the United Kingdom with our first few merchant partners and are expanding our distribution partnerships to support UK integrations. Immediate goal is to be ready to support enterprise-scale partners in the UK in the second fiscal half. ● Shop Pay Installments (powered by Affirm) has now surpassed $10 billion in cumulative GMV – we’ve come a really long way since Shopapalooza! Very much looking forward to growing our joint programs with Shopify, which now include Shop Pay Commerce Component, aka off-Shopify Shop Pay. ● Expanded our existing partnership with WooCommerce, improved the onboarding process for Stripe merchants, and signed on several new merchant platforms. ● Accelerated merchant onboarding in the quarter, growing our active merchant count by over 20 thousand, including several major enterprises to launch in CY’25. Completed contract renewals with several top-10 merchant partners.


 
5Affirm FQ1’25 Shareholder Letter As we prepare for what promises to be a great holiday season, credit remains job #1. Delinquencies rose seasonally in FQ1 and also as a result of expanded approvals with the APR range expansion compared to last year. We expect delinquencies to decline as we exit the holiday season, as normal. As always, credit outcomes are an input into our business model, and we intend to continue steering our unit economics to the target range of 3-4% RLTC as a percentage of GMV. There is much to be excited about the remainder of our fiscal year: expect more growth, product updates, new partnerships and geographies, and much more. And we intend to do it all while maintaining the kind of financial discipline we’ve been able to exhibit over the past couple years: indeed, this quarter, RLTC grew 34% year over year relative to other operating expenses declining 1%. As always, my gratitude goes out to the Affirmers who make all this possible, especially the UK launch team. Special congratulations to Rob O’Hare, who officially becomes our CFO tomorrow, as Michael focuses on his expanded COO remit. Congratulations to everyone on a great quarter, three to go! Onward, Max First Payment 30+ Day Delinquency Rate First Payment 30 Day Delinquency Rate measures the rate of monthly installment loans 30+ days delinquent on first payment from the time of loan capture.


 
FQ1’25 Operating Highlights 6 Gross Merchandise Volume (GMV) grew 35% year over year to $7.6 billion as we significantly outpaced overall e-commerce growth. GMV from our top five merchants and platform partners collectively grew 41% year over year, with continued gains in share of cart. GMV growth was diversified across categories and products, with each category growing double digits year over year except for sporting goods and outdoors, which slightly declined. The general merchandise category grew 47% year over year and was both the largest category and most substantial contributor to our overall growth rate. The travel and ticketing, electronics, and equipment and auto categories all grew at least 25% year over year. Direct-to-Consumer GMV (D2C GMV) grew 44% year over year to $2.1 billion. Within D2C, Affirm Card generated $607 million in GMV, up 20% from $507 million during FQ4’24 and 171% from $224 million during FQ1’24. Active cardholder count grew approximately 19% quarter over quarter in FQ1’25, and we exceeded 1.4 million active cardholders at quarter end. Ongoing product improvements enabled us to expand card eligibility to more of our consumer base and contributed to growth in both active cardholders and GMV. The mix of card GMV continued to gradually shift towards merchant-funded products such as monthly 0% APR as we harmonize merchant offers across surfaces. Despite the slight change in product mix, card unit economics remained consistent with prior periods and similar to that of Affirm overall. Active consumers, excluding the discontinued Returnly business, increased 21% year over year to 19.5 million as of September 30, 2024. Active merchant count increased 21% year over year to 323,000 as of September 30, 2024, marking our fourth consecutive quarter of acceleration in year-over-year growth of active merchant count as merchant acceptance of Affirm continues to increase.

FQ1’25 Financial Highlights Total Revenue Total revenue grew 41% year over year to $698 million. Revenue as a percentage of GMV increased to 9.2%, compared to 8.8% in FQ1’24. The following factors contributed to revenue growth: ● Interest income grew 44%, driven primarily by growth in loans held for investment, which increased 39% year over year, and to a lesser extent by the pricing initiatives that we implemented in FY’23 and FY’24. We believe the majority of the margin benefit from our pricing initiatives has now been realized with over 40% of loan origination volume in FQ1’25 occurring at an APR between 30% and 36%, up from approximately 30% in FQ1’24 and 1% in FQ1’23. ● Network revenue grew 29% year over year, below overall GMV growth, as the mix of 0% APR products including Pay in 4 declined slightly year over year. The decline in 0% APR mix is attributable to an acceleration in growth at some of our large, interest bearing merchant programs. ● Gain on sales of loans grew 86% year over year. This increase was driven by a combination of an increase in loans sold, which grew approximately 30% year over year, better funding market conditions, improved loan sale pricing, and consistent execution by our Capital team. ● Servicing income grew 29% year over year and was a small contributor to overall growth. The increase in servicing income was primarily due to the year-over-year growth in the off-balance sheet platform portfolio. Total Revenue As a percentage of GMV 9.2% +40 bps RLTC As a percentage of GMV 3.8% unchanged Adj. Operating Income1 As a percentage of Revenue 19% +6 pp All comparisons on a year-over-year basis Operating Income (Loss) As a percentage of Revenue (19%) +23 pp Affirm FQ1’25 Shareholder Letter 7 Year-over-Year Change in Revenue as a % of GMV *Other revenue includes gain on sales of loans and servicing income Revenue as a percentage of GMV increased 40 basis points due to an increase in interest income and other revenue as a percentage of GMV, which was somewhat offset by a slight decline in network revenue as a percentage of GMV. The changes in interest income and network revenue are primarily due to a mix shift towards interest-bearing products and away from 0% APR products.


 
8Affirm FQ1’25 Shareholder Letter RLTC As a percentage of GMV, RLTC was unchanged on a year-over-year basis as higher revenue was offset by higher provision and, to a lesser extent, an increase in funding costs. The majority of the increase in provision expense was due to an increase in loans originated and retained on balance sheet during the quarter, which also contributed to the aforementioned year-over-year growth in interest income. Changes in the timing of loan sales in FQ1’25 compared to FQ1’24 also increased provision expense on a year-over-year basis. While the timing and mix of loan originations can contribute to fluctuations in provision expense, our credit outcomes continue to be in-line with expectations as discussed in the Credit Quality section. RLTC grew 34% year over year to $285 million. RLTC as a percentage of GMV of 3.8% was unchanged on a year-over-year basis and within our 3 to 4% long-term target range. Average Asset Yield vs. Average Cost of Funds +1.5 p.p. +.4 p.p. Average asset yield increased 1.5 percentage points year over year and more than 5 percentage points over the past two years due to the impact of the pricing initiatives that we implemented in FY’23 and FY’24 as well as a mix shift towards interest-bearing loans. These pricing initiatives allowed us to offset the increase in average cost of funds during the same period. All comparisons on a year-over-year basis


 
9Affirm FQ1’25 Shareholder Letter Operating Income Operating Income improved $77 million to a ($133) million operating loss, compared to a ($209) million loss in FQ1’24. Operating Income as a percentage of revenue, or Operating Margin, was (19%) in the period, compared to (42%) during FQ1’24. Of the $133 million loss, $122 million was attributable to enterprise warrant and share-based expenses associated with warrants granted to two enterprise partners. The $77 million improvement in Operating Income was driven by a $73 million year-over-year increase in RLTC and minor reduction in operating expenses excluding transaction costs. Excluding transaction costs, operating expenses were effectively flat year over year, with sales and marketing and general and administrative expenses declining, while technology and data analytics expenses increased slightly. Average Cost of Funds Average funding costs were 7.7% on an annualized basis, stable compared to recent quarters and a less than 10 basis point headwind to RLTC as a percent of GMV on a year-over-year basis. *Other txn costs include changes in network revenue, gain on sales of loans, servicing income, processing and servicing expense, and loss on loan purchase commitment Year-over-Year Change in RLTC as a % of GMV Cost of funds defined as annualized funding costs divided by the average of funding debt and notes issued by securitization trusts during the period RLTC as a percentage of GMV of 3.8% was unchanged year over year as an increase in revenue as a percentage of GMV was offset primarily by higher provision expense and to a lesser extent higher funding costs.


 
10Affirm FQ1’25 Shareholder Letter Credit Quality 30+ day delinquencies excluding Peloton and Pay in X loans increased slightly both year over year and compared to FQ4’24. The increase relative to FQ4’24 was partially due to credit seasonality as delinquencies normally peak in early FQ2 before the beginning of the holiday shopping season. Additionally, delinquencies increased as we expanded loan approvals and product mix shifted towards interest-bearing products compared to prior periods. Year-over-Year Comparison: Monthly Installment Loan Ex-Peloton 30+ Day Delinquency Rate Adjusted Operating Income Adjusted Operating Income increased $70 million year over year to $130 million, compared to $60 million in FQ1’24. Adjusted Operating Income as a percentage of Revenue, or Adjusted Operating Margin, was 19% during the period compared to 12% during FQ1’24. Adjusted Operating Income excludes the impact of enterprise warrant and share-based expenses, stock-based compensation expense, depreciation and amortization, and other items. Growth in RLTC accounted for virtually all of the increase in Adjusted Operating Income as Non-GAAP Other Operating Expenses grew only $2 million, or approximately 1%, year over year as we continued to carefully manage expenses.

As a percentage of GMV, loss rates for Pay in 4 loans have continued to track to less than 1% for loans originated during FY’24. U.S. loans only Net charge-off performance Recent monthly installment loan cohorts are continuing to perform in-line with, or better than, historical cohorts that originated prior to the COVID pandemic on the basis of cumulative charge-offs as a percentage of GMV. Cohorts originated during FY’24 are also performing consistent with the cohorts originated during the same period in FY’23.

12Affirm FQ1’25 Shareholder Letter Capital and Funding Update Funding Capacity increased to $16.8 billion at the end of FQ1’25, up from $16.1 billion at the end of FQ4’24, marking the seventh consecutive quarter that funding capacity increased. Overall, we continue to have healthy discussions with both existing and prospective capital partners across all of our funding channels. We were pleased to add Fitch as a rating agency on our $750 million 2024-B revolving ABS transaction in September. This was our first dual-rated issuance and 20th ABS issuance overall, inclusive of reopening transactions. We believe the addition of a major ratings agency will unlock new ABS buyers as well as incremental capacity from existing buyers. Consistent with our other recent transactions, the issuance was upsized and significantly oversubscribed. Since FQ3’23, Capital Allocation and Liquidity each of our ABS transactions were completed at lower overall pricing spreads and higher advance rates than prior transactions. This transaction represents our lowest cost of funds since April 2022 and brings our cumulative issuance since 2020 to $9B, the second highest among non-bank consumer finance issuers.3 We continued to deliver attractive returns to our loan buyer partners driven by consistent credit discipline. This has led to significant upsize demand relative to the same period last year. These upsizes, plus the addition of new loan buyers, enabled us to increase capacity in the forward flow channel at a faster rate than our overall funding capacity on a quarter-on-quarter basis. At the end of September, we had $2.1 billion in total liquidity split between cash and securities available for sale, similar to our total liquidity at the end of June. Against this amount, we had $1.2 billion in convertible debt at the end of September, down from $1.3 billion at the end of June. On November 5, 2024, the Affirm board of directors authorized the repurchase of up to $500 million in aggregate principal amount of our outstanding convertible debt during the period of January 1, 2025 through December 31, 2025. This authorization succeeds the $800 million December 2023 authorization, which expires on December 31, 2024. Subject to market conditions, we will continue to evaluate opportunities to optimize the debt capital structure and proactively manage long-term liabilities. We may consider various approaches to execute any future convertible note repurchases. This could include open market purchases, privately negotiated purchases, purchase plans under Rule 10b5-1, or through a combination thereof. 3Based upon Finsight data as of FQ1’25.


 
Financial Outlook 13Affirm FQ1’25 Shareholder Letter Assumptions Embedded within the Outlook Product and Go-to-Market Initiatives ● Our outlook includes the expected financial impact of our Affirm Money Account, the business-to-business (B2B) product, and our UK expansion. None of these initiatives are expected to be material growth contributors during FY’25. ● A recently-launched wallet partnership is not expected to contribute materially to financial results in FY’25. This reflects that the partnership remains in the early stages of commercialization. Seasonality ● The quarterly seasonality of FY’25 GMV is expected to be consistent with FY’24, with the second and fourth fiscal quarters showing elevated volumes. Fiscal Q2 2025 Fiscal 2025 GMV $9.35 to 9.75 billion More than $34 billion Revenue $770 to 810 million At least 20 basis points higher than FY’24 as a % of GMV Transaction Costs $420 to 440 million Similar to FY’24 as a % of GMV Revenue Less Transaction Costs $350 to 370 million At least 20 basis points higher than FY’24 as a % of GMV Adjusted Operating Margin3 21 to 23 percent At least 20 percent Weighted Average Shares Outstanding 322 million 322 million Operating Income We expect to achieve operating income profitability on a GAAP basis in FQ4’25 and plan to operate the business going forward in a manner designed to maintain profitability on this basis. 3A 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. Enterprise warrant expense ● Expenses associated with amortization of the A through C tranches of warrants granted to an enterprise partner are expected to decline to $5 million per quarter in FQ3’25 and FQ4’25 compared to $74 million in FQ3’24 and $72 million in FQ4’24. ● FY’25 expenses associated with the “performance tranche” of warrants granted to the aforementioned enterprise partner are expected to be similar to FY’24. Funding ● Equity Capital Required (“ECR”) as a percentage of Total Platform Portfolio (“ECR Ratio”) is expected to remain stable compared to FY’24. ● Based upon the current forward interest rate curve which is embedded in our outlook, benchmark interest rates are expected to decline in FY’25 which should be a tailwind to RLTC as a percentage of GMV.

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.
