28-DPD Rate Improves 14 Basis Points Y/Y to 2.12%, While ExtraCash Originations Grew 27% Y/Y to $2.3 Billion

Net Income of $6.7 Million Includes $36.9 Million of Non-Cash Warrant and Earnout Remeasurement Charges

Adj. EBITDA Increases 48% Y/Y to $75.5 Million, Representing a 44% Margin

Raises 2026 Revenue, Adj. EBITDA and Adj. Diluted EPS Guidance

LOS ANGELES, Aug. 5, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Dave Inc. ("Dave" or the "Company") (NASDAQ:DAVE), one of the nation's leading neobanks, today reported its financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2026.

"We closed the first half with our ninth consecutive quarter of at least 30% year-over-year revenue growth as we once again demonstrated the strength and durability of our business," said Jason Wilk, Founder and CEO of Dave. "The rollout of CashAI v6.0, alongside the relaxing of legacy fee caps and planned higher ExtraCash limits, gives us even greater conviction in our ARPU outlook. In addition, early engagement with Dave Flex has been promising and we continue to expand test cohorts. At the same time, we expect MTM growth to accelerate in the second half of 2026, supported by strong member acquisition trends."

Wilk continued, "Based on our strong first-half performance, the depth of our product roadmap, and the significant operating leverage we continue to see in our model, we are raising our full-year 2026 guidance for Revenue, Adjusted EBITDA, and Adjusted Diluted EPS."

(1) Beginning in the second quarter of 2026, the Company updated its definitions of Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted EBITDA to exclude: (i) other strategic financing and transactional expenses and (ii) litigation expenses related to the FTC/DOJ matter; Adjusted EBITDA was further updated to exclude (iii) funding costs. Prior periods have not been recast because the effect of these items on such periods was immaterial.

Second Quarter 2026 Operating Highlights (vs. Second Quarter 2025)

New members increased 32% to 951,000, at a customer acquisition cost of $19
Monthly Transacting Members ("MTMs") increased 17% to 3.08 million
ExtraCash originations increased 27% to $2.3 billion, while ExtraCash Monetization Rate Net of Losses expanded nearly 9 basis points to 4.8%
28-day past due rate improved 6% to 2.12%
Dave Debit Card spend increased 7% to $530 million

Liquidity Summary

As of June 30, 2026, the Company had $254.4 million in cash and cash equivalents, investments, and restricted cash, compared to $177.8 million as of March 31, 2026. The $76.6 million increase was primarily driven by $93.0 million funded through the Coastal Community Bank arrangement, offset by $19.1 million of share repurchases during the quarter, leaving $94.1 million available under the Company's share repurchase authorization.

2026 Financial Guidance ($ in millions)

	Prior FY 2026	New FY 2026
GAAP Operating Revenues, Net	$710 - $720	$725 - $735
Year-Over-Year Growth	28% - 30%	31% - 33%
Adjusted EBITDA^*	$305 - $315	$315 - $325
Adj. Net Income per Diluted Share^*	$16.25 - $16.75	$17.00 - $17.50

*Non-GAAP measure. The Company does not provide a quantitative reconciliation of forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures because it is unable to predict without unreasonable effort the exact amount or timing of the reconciling items, including interest expense, investment income, and loss provision, among others. The variability of these items could have a significant impact on our future GAAP financial results.

Dave's CFO and COO, Kyle Beilman, commented: "This quarter demonstrated the quality of our earnings growth. Non-GAAP gross margin expanded nearly 300 basis points year-over-year to 72%. Credit performance remained strong, with our 28-day past due rate improving 6% year-over-year while originations grew 27%. That strength has continued into the third quarter, supported by the early rollout of our CashAI v6.0 underwriting model, which we expect to sustain loss rates in a similar range to Q2 while driving larger ExtraCash origination sizes. With loss provision calendar dynamics turning favorable in the second half, we expect non-GAAP gross margin to continue expanding into the mid-70s."

"Marketing and activation investment grew 32% year-over-year while CAC held flat at $19, further demonstrating the scalability of our growth engine. As returns have exceeded our expectations at higher spend levels, we plan to invest above our original plan in the second half. Near term, that incremental investment is expected to shift our growth mix toward MTMs, as newer members begin at lower ARPU and monetize more over time."

"Our Coastal Community Bank funding structure had $93.0 million outstanding at the end of Q2. As this program scales, it makes our funding model significantly more capital-efficient, lowers our cost of funds, and frees up meaningful liquidity to pursue high-return organic growth opportunities and continue to return capital to shareholders."

Non-GAAP Financial Information

This press release contains references to adjusted net income, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP gross profit margin, and adjusted net income per share (basic and diluted) of Dave, which are adjusted from results based on generally accepted accounting principles in the United States ("GAAP") and exclude certain expenses, gains and losses. The Company defines and calculates adjusted EBITDA as GAAP net income before the impact of interest income and/or expense, and funding costs, provision for income taxes, depreciation and amortization, and adjusted to exclude legal settlement and litigation expenses related to the FTC/DOJ matter, stock-based compensation expense, other strategic financing and transactional expenses, discretionary or non-recurring income, changes in fair value of earnout liabilities and changes in fair value of public and private warrant liabilities. The Company defines and calculates adjusted EBITDA margin as adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of GAAP operating revenues, net. The Company defines and calculates variable operating expenses as provision for credit losses, processing and servicing costs and financial network and transaction costs. The Company defines and calculates non-GAAP gross profit as GAAP operating revenues, net excluding variable operating expenses. The Company defines and calculates non-GAAP gross profit margin as non-GAAP gross profit as a percentage of GAAP operating revenues, net. The Company defines and calculates adjusted net income as GAAP net income adjusted to exclude stock-based compensation, discretionary or non-recurring income, legal settlement and litigation expenses related to the FTC/DOJ matter, other strategic financing and transactional expenses, changes in fair value of earnout liabilities and changes in fair value of public and private warrant liabilities, the income tax impact related to the release of the valuation allowance and the income tax impact related to stock-based compensation. The Company defines and calculates non-GAAP adjusted net income per share - basic and non-GAAP adjusted net income per share - diluted as adjusted net income divided by weighted average shares of common stock-basic and weighted average shares of common stock-diluted, respectively.

These non-GAAP financial measures may be helpful to the user in assessing our operating performance and facilitate an alternative comparison among fiscal periods. The Company's management team uses these non-GAAP financial measures in assessing performance, as well as in planning and forecasting future periods. The methods the Company uses to compute these non-GAAP financial measures may differ from the methods used by other companies. Non-GAAP financial measures are supplemental, should not be considered a substitute for financial information presented in accordance with GAAP and should be read only in conjunction with our condensed consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP.
