"Second quarter results were in-line with our internal
expectations as we navigated the remaining impact of partner
deconversions and portfolio sunsetting in the first half of 2023
and increased investment in our regulatory infrastructure," said
Jess Unruh, Chief Financial Officer of Green Dot. "We saw improved
momentum in our BaaS channel and we believe the recent launch of
our new PLS program will provide additional momentum in the second
half of the year.”
2024 Financial Guidance
Green Dot has updated its most recent financial outlook for
2024. Green Dot’s outlook is based on a number of assumptions that
management believes are reasonable at the time of this earnings
release. In particular, its outlook reflects several
considerations, including but not limited to the current
macro-economic environment, the effect of high inflation and
interest rates, the impact of previously disclosed non-renewals of
certain partnerships and programs, the company's decision to wind
down many of its legacy cardholder programs in support of GO2bank,
negative trends within certain channels of its business, investment
in strategic initiatives and compliance programs, and cost
reduction initiatives. Additionally, the civil money penalty and
related expenses associated with Green Dot's consent order
previously disclosed are expressly excluded from its non-GAAP
measures and related financial outlook. Information regarding
potential risks that could cause the actual results to differ from
these forward-looking statements is set forth below and in Green
Dot's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Total Non-GAAP Operating Revenues2
- Green Dot now expects its guidance range for its full year
non-GAAP total operating revenues2 to be between $1.60 billion and
$1.70 billion, or up approximately 11% year over year at the
mid-point.
Adjusted EBITDA2
- Green Dot believes it may be at the low end of its guidance
range for its full year adjusted EBITDA2, which it expects to be
between $170 million and $180 million, or up approximately 2% year
over year at the mid-point.
Non-GAAP EPS2
- Green Dot believes it may be at the low end of its guidance
range for its full year non-GAAP EPS2, which it expects to be
between $1.45 and $1.59, or down 6% year over year at the
mid-point.

About Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To supplement Green Dot's consolidated financial statements
presented in accordance with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States of America (GAAP), Green Dot uses
measures of operating results that are adjusted for, among other
things, non-operating net interest income and expense; other
non-interest investment income earned by its bank; income tax
benefit and expense; depreciation and amortization, including
amortization of acquired intangibles; certain legal settlement
gains and charges; stock-based compensation and related employer
payroll taxes; changes in the fair value of contingent
consideration; transaction costs from acquisitions; amortization
attributable to deferred financing costs, impairment charges;
extraordinary severance expenses; earnings or losses from equity
method investments; changes in the fair value of loans held for
sale; commissions and certain processing-related costs associated
with Banking as a Service ("BaaS") products and services where
Green Dot does not control customer acquisition; realized gains on
investment securities; other charges and income not reflective of
ongoing operating results; and income tax effects. This earnings
release includes non-GAAP total operating revenues, adjusted
EBITDA, non-GAAP net income, and non-GAAP diluted earnings per
share. These non-GAAP financial measures are not calculated or
presented in accordance with, and are not alternatives or
substitutes for, financial measures prepared in accordance with
GAAP, and should be read only in conjunction with Green Dot's
financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. Green Dot's
non-GAAP financial measures may be different from similarly-titled
non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. Green Dot
believes that the presentation of non-GAAP financial measures
provides useful information to management and investors regarding
underlying trends in its consolidated financial condition and
results of operations. Green Dot's management regularly uses these
supplemental non-GAAP financial measures internally to understand,
manage and evaluate Green Dot's business and make operating
decisions. For additional information regarding Green Dot's use of
non-GAAP financial measures and the items excluded by Green Dot
from one or more of its historic and projected non-GAAP financial
measures, investors are encouraged to review the reconciliations of
Green Dot's historic and projected non-GAAP financial measures to
the comparable GAAP financial measures, which are attached to this
earnings release, and which can be found by clicking on “Financial
Information” in the Investor Relations section of Green Dot's
website at http://ir.greendot.com/.

* Total segment profit is also referred to
herein as adjusted EBITDA in its non-GAAP measures. Additional
information about the Company's non-GAAP financial measures can be
found under the caption “About Non-GAAP Financial Measures."
Green Dot's segment reporting is based on how its Chief
Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) manages its businesses, including
resource allocation and performance assessment. Its CODM (who is
the Chief Executive Officer) organizes and manages the businesses
primarily on the basis of the channels in which its product and
services are offered and uses net revenue and segment profit to
assess profitability. Segment profit reflects each segment's net
revenue less direct costs, such as sales and marketing expenses,
processing expenses, third-party call center support and
transaction losses. Green Dot’s operations are aggregated amongst
three reportable segments: 1) Consumer Services, 2) Business to
Business ("B2B") Services and 3) Money Movement Services.
The Corporate and Other segment primarily consists of net
interest income, certain other investment income earned by Green
Dot's bank, interest profit sharing arrangements with certain BaaS
partners (a reduction of revenue), eliminations of inter-segment
revenues and expenses, and unallocated corporate expenses, which
include Green Dot's fixed expenses, such as salaries, wages and
related benefits for its employees, professional services fees,
software licenses, telephone and communication costs, rent,
utilities, and insurance that are not considered when Green Dot's
CODM evaluates segment performance. Non-cash expenses such as
stock-based compensation, depreciation and amortization of
long-lived assets, impairment charges and other non-recurring
expenses that are not considered by Green Dot's CODM when it is
evaluating overall consolidated financial results are excluded from
its unallocated corporate expenses. Green Dot does not evaluate
performance or allocate resources based on segment asset data, and
therefore such information is not presented.

To supplement Green Dot’s
consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with
GAAP, Green Dot uses measures of operating results that are
adjusted to exclude various, primarily non-cash, expenses and
charges. These financial measures are not calculated or presented
in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered as
alternatives to or substitutes for operating revenues, operating
income, net income or any other measure of financial performance
calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. These financial
measures may not be comparable to similarly-titled measures of
other organizations because other organizations may not calculate
their measures in the same manner as Green Dot does. These
financial measures are adjusted to eliminate the impact of items
that Green Dot does not consider indicative of its core operating
performance. You are encouraged to evaluate these adjustments and
the reasons Green Dot considers them appropriate.
Green Dot believes that the non-GAAP financial measures it
presents are useful to investors in evaluating Green Dot’s
operating performance for the following reasons:
- adjusted EBITDA is widely used by investors to measure a
company’s operating performance without regard to items, such as
non-operating net interest income and expense, income tax benefit
and expense, depreciation and amortization, stock-based
compensation and related employer payroll taxes, changes in the
fair value of contingent consideration, transaction costs,
impairment charges, extraordinary severance expenses, certain legal
settlement and related expenses, earnings or losses from equity
method investments, changes in the fair value of loans held for
sale, and other charges and income that can vary substantially from
company to company depending upon their respective financing
structures and accounting policies, the book values of their
assets, their capital structures and the methods by which their
assets were acquired;
- securities analysts use adjusted EBITDA as a supplemental
measure to evaluate the overall operating performance of companies;
and
- Green Dot records stock-based compensation from period to
period, and recorded stock-based compensation expenses and related
employer payroll taxes, net of forfeitures, of approximately $7.5
million and $10.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024
and 2023, respectively. By comparing Green Dot’s adjusted EBITDA,
non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP diluted earnings per share in
different historical periods, investors can evaluate Green Dot’s
operating results without the additional variations caused by
stock-based compensation expense and related employer payroll
taxes, which may not be comparable from period to period due to
changes in the fair market value of Green Dot’s Class A common
stock (which is influenced by external factors like the volatility
of the public markets and the financial performance of Green Dot’s
peers) and is not a key measure of Green Dot’s operations.
Green Dot’s management uses the non-GAAP financial measures:
- as measures of operating performance, because they exclude the
impact of items not directly resulting from Green Dot’s core
operations;
- for planning purposes, including the preparation of Green Dot’s
annual operating budget;
- to allocate resources to enhance the financial performance of
Green Dot’s business;
- to evaluate the effectiveness of Green Dot’s business
strategies;
- to establish metrics for variable compensation; and
- in communications with Green Dot’s board of directors
concerning Green Dot’s financial performance.
Green Dot understands that, although adjusted EBITDA and other
non-GAAP financial measures are frequently used by investors and
securities analysts in their evaluations of companies, these
measures have limitations as an analytical tool, and you should not
consider them in isolation or as substitutes for an analysis of
Green Dot’s results of operations as reported under GAAP. Some of
these limitations are:
- that these measures do not reflect Green Dot’s capital
expenditures or future requirements for capital expenditures or
other contractual commitments;
- that these measures do not reflect changes in, or cash
requirements for, Green Dot’s working capital needs;
- that these measures do not reflect non-operating interest
expense or interest income;
- that these measures do not reflect cash requirements for income
taxes;
- that, although depreciation and amortization are non-cash
charges, the assets being depreciated or amortized will often have
to be replaced in the future, and these measures do not reflect any
cash requirements for these replacements; and
- that other companies in Green Dot’s industry may calculate
these measures differently than Green Dot does, limiting their
usefulness as comparative measures.
(2)
Green Dot does not include any
income tax impact of the associated non-GAAP adjustment to adjusted
EBITDA, as the case may be, because each of these adjustments to
the non-GAAP financial measure is provided before income tax
expense.
(3)
This expense consists primarily
of expenses for restricted stock units (including performance-based
restricted stock units) and related employer payroll taxes.
Stock-based compensation expense is not comparable from period to
period due to changes in the fair market value of Green Dot’s Class
A common stock (which is influenced by external factors like the
volatility of public markets and the financial performance of Green
Dot’s peers) and is not a key measure of Green Dot’s operations.
Green Dot excludes stock-based compensation expense from its
non-GAAP financial measures primarily because it consists of
non-cash expenses that Green Dot does not believe are reflective of
ongoing operating results. Green Dot also believes that it is not
useful to investors to understand the impact of stock-based
compensation to its results of operations. Further, the related
employer payroll taxes are dependent upon volatility in Green Dot's
stock price, as well as the timing and size of option exercises and
vesting of restricted stock units, over which Green Dot has limited
to no control. This expense is included as a component of
compensation and benefits expenses on Green Dot's consolidated
statements of operations.
(4)
Green Dot excludes certain income
and expenses that are the result of acquisitions. These
acquisition-related adjustments include items such as transaction
costs, the amortization of acquired intangible assets, changes in
the fair value of contingent consideration, settlements of
contingencies established at time of acquisition and other
acquisition related charges, such as integration charges and
professional and legal fees, which result in Green Dot recording
expenses or fair value adjustments in its GAAP financial
statements. Green Dot analyzes the performance of its operations
without regard to these adjustments. In determining whether any
acquisition-related adjustment is appropriate, Green Dot takes into
consideration, among other things, how such adjustments would or
would not aid in the understanding of the performance of its
operations. These items are included as a component of other
general and administrative expenses on Green Dot's consolidated
statements of operations, as applicable for the periods
presented.
(5)
Green Dot excludes certain income
and expenses that are not reflective of ongoing operating results.
It is difficult to estimate the amount or timing of these items in
advance. Although these events are reflected in Green Dot's GAAP
financial statements, Green Dot excludes them in its non-GAAP
financial measures because Green Dot believes these items may limit
the comparability of ongoing operations with prior and future
periods. These adjustments include items such as amortization
attributable to deferred financing costs, impairment charges
related to long-lived assets, earnings or losses from equity method
investments, legal settlements and related expenses, changes in the
fair value of loans held for sale, realized gains on investment
securities and other income and expenses, as applicable for the
periods presented. In determining whether any such adjustment is
appropriate, Green Dot takes into consideration, among other
things, how such adjustments would or would not aid in the
understanding of the performance of its operations. Each of these
adjustments, except for amortization of deferred financing costs,
earnings and losses from equity method investments, fair value
changes on loans held for sale, and realized gains on investment
securities, which are all included below operating income, are
included within other general and administrative expenses on Green
Dot's consolidated statements of operations.
(6)
During the three and six months
ended June 30, 2024, Green Dot recorded charges of $0.4 million and
$5.4 million, respectively, related to extraordinary severance
expenses, which were paid out in connection with reductions in
force and other extraordinary involuntary terminations of
employment. Although severance expenses may arise throughout the
fiscal year, Green Dot believes the nature of these extraordinary
costs are not indicative of its core operating performance. This
expense is included as a component of compensation and benefits
expenses on Green Dot's consolidated statements of operations.
(7)
Represents the tax effect for the
related non-GAAP measure adjustments using Green Dot's year to date
non-GAAP effective tax rate. It also excludes both the impact of
excess tax benefits related to stock-based compensation and the IRC
§162(m) limitation that applies to performance-based restricted
stock units expense as of June 30, 2024.
(8)
Represents commissions and
certain processing-related costs associated with BaaS products and
services where Green Dot does not control customer acquisition.
This adjustment is netted against Green Dot's B2B Services revenues
when evaluating segment performance.
(9)
Represents other non-interest
investment income earned by Green Dot Bank. This amount is included
along with operating interest income in Green Dot's Corporate and
Other segment since the yield earned on these investments are
generated on a recurring basis and earned similarly to its
investment securities available for sale.
(10)
These amounts represent estimated
adjustments for items such as income taxes, depreciation and
amortization, employee stock-based compensation and related
employer taxes, amortization attributable to deferred financing
costs, impairment charges, extraordinary severance expenses,
earnings and losses from equity method investments, changes in the
fair value of loans held for sale, legal settlements and related
expenses and other income and expenses. Employee stock-based
compensation expense includes assumptions about the future fair
value of the Company’s Class A common stock (which is influenced by
external factors like the volatility of public markets and the
financial performance of the Company’s peers).
