Expands Network by Increasing Active Merchants from 6,500 to 102,000 and Active Consumers by 124% to 8.7 million Year Over Year

Grows Year-Over-Year GMV by 84%, or 138% Excluding Largest Merchant

Expands Amazon Relationship to All Eligible U.S. Purchases; Affirm to be Embedded as Payment Option in Amazon Pay's Digital Wallet in the U.S.

Affirm Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ:AFRM) ("Affirm" or the "Company"), the payment network that empowers consumers and helps merchants drive growth, today reported financial results for its fiscal 2022 first quarter ended September 30, 2021.

"Our strong quarter once again demonstrates the continued momentum across Affirm as more people embrace the transparency, flexibility and value our solutions provide," said Max Levchin, Founder and CEO of Affirm. "Our unrivaled technology, industry-leading talent and the investments we are making are delivering results. Over the last year, we expanded our network by increasing the number of active merchants on our platform to over 100,000 and more than doubling the number of active consumers. These deep connections and our partnerships with merchants drove growth in GMV, frequency of engagement, and revenue."

Levchin continued, "We are pleased with our performance and proud of the contributions of our nearly 2,000-strong Affirm team. At the same time, there is a lot more for us to build to achieve our objectives, and we are even more excited about the opportunities ahead. We remain focused on continuing to delight and grow both sides of our network by giving people even more reasons to choose Affirm with more products and in more markets."

First Quarter of Fiscal Year 2022 Operating Highlights:

All comparisons are made versus the same period in fiscal year 2021 unless otherwise stated.

Gross merchandise volume ("GMV") for the first quarter of fiscal 2022 was $2.7 billion, an increase of 84%, or 138% excluding the Company's largest merchant
Active merchants increased from 6,500 to 102,000, with the substantial majority coming from the adoption of Shop Pay Installments by merchants on Shopify's platform
Active consumers grew 124% to 8.7 million and increased by 1.6 million, or 22%, compared to the period ended June 30, 2021
Transactions per active consumer increased 8% to 2.3 as of September 30, 2021

First Quarter of Fiscal Year 2022 Financial Highlights:¹

All comparisons are made versus the same period in fiscal year 2021 unless otherwise stated.

Total revenue was $269.4 million, a 55% increase, driven primarily by increases in interest income related to growth in loans held for investment, network revenue driven by GMV growth, and gains on sales of loans
Total revenue less transaction costs¹ was $112.1 million, compared to $55.3 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2021, primarily as a result of the strong revenue growth, as well as slower growth in transaction costs as we achieved scale efficiencies. In the period, provision for credit losses increased by $34.7 million from the first quarter of fiscal 2021. This increase was driven by a release of excess loan allowance in the prior year period and a more normal credit environment in the quarter ended September 30, 2021 compared to the prior year
Operating loss was $166.1 million compared to $33.3 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2021, and includes a $87.0 million increase in stock-based compensation following the Company's January 2021 initial public offering, as well as investments in product and engineering talent and marketing to deliver on the Company's growth opportunities
Adjusted operating loss for the first quarter of fiscal 2022 was $45.1 million, compared to the adjusted operating loss of $7.9 million reported in the first quarter of fiscal 2021
Net loss for the first quarter of fiscal 2022 was $306.6 million compared to $3.9 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2021, and includes the above-mentioned increase in stock-based compensation following the Company's IPO, as well as $141.6 million of additional expense recognized based on the change in fair value of the contingent consideration liability associated with the Company's acquisition of PayBright driven by increases in the value of its common stock

Recent Business Highlights

Today, the Company announced that it has expanded its relationship with Amazon. Affirm will be generally available to support all eligible purchases of $50 or more on Amazon.com and the Amazon shopping app in the United States. Consumers will have the option to split the total cost of eligible purchases into monthly payments at checkout with no late or hidden fees, ever. As part of an amended agreement, Affirm will serve as Amazon's only third party, non credit card, buy now, pay later ("BNPL") option in the U.S. Until January 2023, Amazon will be subject to certain restrictions on providing other installment products in the U.S. by other BNPL providers. Affirm will also be integrated into Amazon Pay's digital wallet in the U.S. In conjunction with the amended agreement, Amazon will receive multiple tranches of warrants to purchase shares of Affirm's Class A Common Stock, some of which are subject to satisfaction of certain performance obligations and vesting conditions. Additional details are included in a Form 8-K filing that will be available here
On November 3, the Company announced the expansion of its successful partnership with Peloton to provide Affirm's 0% APR offering to consumers in Australia on Peloton's Bike and Bike+ over 12, 24, 39 or 43 months with no late or hidden fees
Today, the Company successfully completed a $247 million securitization of its long-duration 0% APR point-of-sale installment loans, achieving the lowest credit spread in this program to date. Similar to the Company's most recent 0% APR point-of-sale installment securitization, this transaction qualifies for non-consolidated accounting treatment. This marks the Company's seventh overall asset-backed security transaction since launching the program in 2020

Michael Linford, CFO of Affirm, commented, "During the first quarter, we continued to scale our two-sided network, delivering robust top-line growth, strong unit economics and even greater capital efficiency. We are seeing traction across all products and verticals, and deepening our trusted relationships with merchants and consumers alike. As we continue to capitalize on our hyper growth phase, we are strongly positioning ourselves for the long-term by investing in our key competitive advantages in technology and talent."

Financial Outlook

The following table summarizes Affirm's financial outlook for the fiscal second quarter and full year 2022 periods.

	Fiscal Q2 2022	Fiscal Year 2022
GMV	$3.55 to $3.65 billion	$13.13 to $13.38 billion

The Company's financial outlook for the fiscal second quarter and full year 2022 assumes the following:

The Company's outlook does not include estimates of potential contributions to GMV, revenue, or transaction costs from its partnership with Amazon. However, certain technology and marketing expenses associated with the onboarding and ramping of the expanded Amazon partnership are included in the Company's outlook for adjusted operating margin for Fiscal Year 2022. Beginning with its fiscal third quarter, the Company plans to begin including estimates of the GMV, revenue, and transaction costs related to the Amazon partnership in its financial outlook
The Company's outlook assumes no material impact to GMV, revenue, or transaction costs from the rollout of its Affirm Debit+ card or its recently announced partnership to enter the Australian market

Key Operating Metrics

Gross Merchandise Volume ("GMV") - The Company defines GMV as the total dollar amount of all transactions on the Affirm platform during the applicable period, net of refunds. GMV does not represent revenue earned by the Company. However, the Company believes that GMV is a useful operating metric to both the Company and investors in assessing the volume of transactions that take place on the Company's platform, which is an indicator of the success of the Company's merchants and the strength of that platform.
Active Consumers - The Company defines an active consumer as a consumer who engages in at least one transaction on its platform during the 12 months prior to the measurement date. The Company believes that active consumers is a useful operating metric to both the Company and investors in assessing consumer adoption and engagement and measuring the size of the Company's network.
Transactions per Active Consumer - Transactions per active consumer is defined as the average number of transactions that an active consumer has conducted on its platform during the 12 months prior to the measurement date. The Company believes that transactions per active consumer is a useful operating metric to both the Company and investors in assessing consumer engagement and repeat usage, which is an indicator of the value of the Company's network.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Transaction Costs - The Company defines transaction costs as the sum of loss on loan purchase commitment, provision for credit losses, funding costs, and processing and servicing expense. The Company believes that transaction costs is a useful financial measure to both the Company and investors of those costs, which vary with the volume of transactions processed on the Company's platform.
Transaction Costs as a Percentage of GMV - The Company defines transaction costs as a percentage of GMV as transaction costs, as defined above, as a percentage of GMV, as defined above. The Company believes that transaction costs as a percentage of GMV is a useful financial measure to both the Company and investors as it approximates the variable cost efficiency of transactions processed on the Company's platform.
Revenue Less Transaction Costs - The Company defines revenue less transaction costs as GAAP total revenue less transaction costs, as defined above. The Company believes that revenue less transaction costs is a useful financial measure to both the Company and investors of the economic value generated by transactions processed on the Company's platform.
Revenue Less Transaction Costs as a Percentage of GMV - The Company defines revenue less transaction costs as a percentage of GMV as revenue less transaction costs, as defined above, as a percentage of GMV, as defined above. The Company believes that revenue less transaction costs as a percentage of GMV is a useful financial measure to both the Company and investors of the unit economics of transactions processed on the Company's platform.
Adjusted Operating (Loss) Income - The Company defines adjusted operating (loss) income as its GAAP operating loss, excluding: (a) depreciation and amortization; (b) stock-based compensation included in GAAP operating loss; (c) the amortization of its commercial agreement asset; and (d) certain other costs as set forth in the reconciliation of adjusted operating (loss) income to GAAP operating loss included in the tables at the end of this press release. Adjusted operating (loss) income is presented because the Company believes that it is a useful financial measure to both the Company and investors for evaluating its operating performance and that it facilitates period to period comparisons of the Company's results of operations as the items excluded generally are not a function of the Company's operating performance.
Adjusted Operating Margin - The Company defines adjusted operating margin as its adjusted operating (loss) income, as defined above, as a percentage of its GAAP total revenue. Similar to adjusted operating (loss) income, the Company believes that adjusted operating margin is a useful financial measure to both the Company and investors for evaluating its operating performance and that it facilitates period to period comparisons of the Company's results of operations as the items excluded generally are not a function of the Company's operating performance.
Total Platform Portfolio - The Company defines total platform portfolio as the unpaid principal balance outstanding of all loans facilitated through its platform as of the balance sheet date, including loans held for investment, loans held for sale, and loans owned by third-parties. The Company believes that total platform portfolio is a useful financial measure to both the Company and investors in assessing the scale of funding requirements for the Company's network.
Equity Capital Required - The Company defines equity capital required as the sum of the balance of loans held for investment and loans held for sale, less the balance of funding debt and notes issued by securitization trusts as of the balance sheet date. The Company believes that equity capital required is a useful financial measure to both the Company and investors in assessing the amount of the Company's total platform portfolio that the Company funds with its own equity capital.
Equity Capital Required as a Percentage of Total Platform Portfolio - The Company defines equity capital required as a percentage of total platform portfolio as equity capital required, as defined above, as a percentage of total platform portfolio, as defined above. The Company believes that equity capital required as a percentage of total platform portfolio is a useful financial measure to both the Company and investors in assessing the proportion of outstanding loans on the Company's platform that are funded by the Company's own equity capital.

Supplemental Performance Indicators

Active Merchants - The Company defines an active merchant as a merchant which engages in at least one transaction on its platform during the 12 months prior to the measurement date. The Company believes that active merchants is a useful performance indicator to both the Company and investors because it measures the reach of the Company's network.
Total Revenue as a Percentage of GMV - The Company defines total revenue as a percentage of GMV as GAAP total revenue as a percentage of GMV, as defined above. The Company believes that total revenue as a percentage of GMV is a useful performance indicator to both the Company and investors of the revenue generated on a transaction processed on the Company's platform.
Allowance for Credit Losses as a Percentage of Loans Held for Investment - The Company defines allowance for credit losses as a percentage of loans held for investment as GAAP allowance for credit losses as a percentage of GAAP loans held for investment. The Company believes that allowance for credit losses as a percentage of loans held for investment is a useful performance indicator to both the Company and investors of the future estimated credit losses on the Company's outstanding loans held for investment.

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, adjusted operating 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 loss and adjusted operating margin exclude certain recurring, non-cash charges such as depreciation and amortization, although the assets being depreciated and amortized may need to be replaced in the future, and share-based compensation expense, which has been, and will continue to be for the foreseeable future, a significant recurring expense and an important part of the Company's compensation strategy; 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.
