Third Quarter 2023 Financial Highlights

(All comparisons are year-over-year unless stated otherwise.)

• Gross originations were $49.6 million, an increase of 12.5%
  • Approximately 51.3% of gross originations for the third quarter of 2023 came from repeat customers¹
• Total revenue was $55.3 million, an increase of 9.8%
• Net loss was $2.9 million for the third quarter of 2023 which compares favorably to net loss of $9.2 million reported for the third quarter of 2022. Net loss improvement in the third quarter of 2023 was driven primarily by an increase in total revenue and decrease in operating expenses driven by a continued focus on disciplined expense management. Total operating expenses in the third quarter were down 27.0% and fixed cash operating expenses were down approximately 31.8%
• Adjusted net loss² improved to $1.9 million for the third quarter of 2023 compared with an adjusted net loss of $7.8 million reported for the third quarter of 2022
• Adjusted EBITDA² improved to $2.0 million for the third quarter of 2023 compared to an Adjusted EBITDA² loss of $2.3 million in the prior year period
• Katapult ended the quarter with total cash and cash equivalents of $32.2 million, which excludes $6.7 million of restricted cash
• Write-offs as a percentage of revenue were 9.3% in the third quarter of 2023 compared to 9.2% in the second quarter of 2023 and 8.1% in the third quarter of 2022, and remains within the Company’s 8% to 10% long-term target range

[1] Repeat rate is defined as the percentage of in-quarter originations from existing customers.

Fourth Quarter 2023 and Full Year 2023 Business Outlook

The Company continues to navigate an evolving, but still uncertain macro environment. While there are tailwinds such as stable inflation data and a reduced likelihood of a recession in the US, retail traffic is down, interest rates remain elevated, lending standards are tight and there is uncertainty surrounding how the resumption of student loan repayments may impact our core consumer’s ability to take on new leases. It is also important to note, however, that over time, lease-to-own solutions have historically benefited when prime credit options become less available. Based on these dynamics and the operating plan in place for the second half of 2023, Katapult expects to deliver the following results for the fourth quarter of 2023:

• A 3 to 5% year-over-year increase in gross originations.
• A 13 to 15% year-over-year increase in revenue. As a reminder, there is a lag between new gross originations and revenue. Based on this, the Company expects to see the revenue benefit from gross originations recorded this quarter in future quarters.
• Meaningful improvement in its Adjusted EBITDA performance compared with the fourth quarter of last year, reflecting both its revenue growth expectation and a sustained reduction of fixed cash operating expenses. Fixed cash operating expenses are expected to be down approximately 25% year-over-year in the fourth quarter.

For the full year 2023, our fourth quarter outlook translates to the following full year expectations:

• A 12 to 13% year-over-year increase in gross originations.
• A 3 to 4.5% year-over-year increase in revenue.    
• Meaningful improvement in Adjusted EBITDA performance compared with 2022. Year-to-date as of the third quarter, Adjusted EBITDA has improved by $14.0 million compared with the same period of 2022.

"Our team is laser-focused on executing our operating plan and delivering the growth we need to unlock the earnings and cash flow power of our financial model,” said Nancy Walsh, CFO of Katapult. “Even as we have focused on driving our top-line, we have remained fiscally disciplined, which has allowed us to improve Adjusted EBITDA substantially. During the first nine months of 2023, we grew gross originations by 16.0%, gross profit by 16.1% and delivered $14.0 million more in Adjusted EBITDA compared to the same timeframe of 2022. Heading into the fourth quarter, we feel confident about our competitive positioning and expect to exit 2023 with strong momentum.”

Key Performance Metrics

Katapult regularly reviews several metrics, including the following key metrics, to evaluate its business, measure its performance, identify trends affecting our business, formulate financial projections and make strategic decisions, which may also be useful to an investor: gross originations, total revenue, gross profit, adjusted gross profit and adjusted EBITDA.

Gross originations are defined as the retail price of the merchandise associated with lease-purchase agreements entered into during the period through the Katapult platform. Gross originations do not represent revenue earned. However, we believe this is a useful operating metric for both Katapult’s management and investors to use in assessing the volume of transactions that take place on Katapult’s platform.

Total revenue represents the summation of rental revenue and other revenue. Katapult measures this metric to assess the total view of pay through performance of its customers. Management believes looking at these components is useful to an investor as it helps to understand the total payment performance of customers.

Gross profit represents total revenue less cost of revenue, and is a measure presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States ("GAAP"). See the “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” section below for a description and presentation of adjusted gross profit and adjusted EBITDA, which are non-GAAP measures utilized by management.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To supplement the financial measures presented in this press release and related conference call or webcast in accordance with GAAP, the Company also presents the following non-GAAP and other measures of financial performance: adjusted gross profit, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net loss and fixed cash operating expenses. The Company urges investors to consider non-GAAP measures only in conjunction with its GAAP financials and to review the reconciliation of the Company’s non-GAAP financial measures to its comparable GAAP financial measures, which are included in this press release.

Adjusted gross profit represents gross profit less variable operating expenses, which are servicing costs, and underwriting fees. Management believes that adjusted gross profit provides a meaningful understanding of one aspect of its performance specifically attributable to total revenue and the variable costs associated with total revenue.

Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP measure that is defined as net loss before interest expense and other fees, interest income, change in fair value of warrant liability, loss on partial extinguishment of debt, provision for income taxes, depreciation and amortization on property and equipment and capitalized software, impairment of leased assets and stock-based compensation expense.

Adjusted net loss is a non-GAAP measure that is defined as net loss before change in fair value of warrant liability and stock-based compensation expense.

Fixed cash operating expenses is a non-GAAP measure that is defined as operating expenses less variable lease costs such as underwriting fees and servicing costs, as well as non-cash equity-based compensation expenses. Management believes that fixed cash operating expenses provides a meaningful understanding of controllable ongoing expenses.

Adjusted gross profit, adjusted EBITDA and adjusted net loss are useful to an investor in evaluating the Company’s performance because these measures:

• Are widely used to measure a company’s operating performance;
• Are financial measurements that are used by rating agencies, lenders and other parties to evaluate the Company’s credit worthiness; and
• Are used by the Company’s management for various purposes, including as measures of performance and as a basis for strategic planning and forecasting.

Management believes the use of non-GAAP financial measures, as a supplement to GAAP measures, is useful to investors in that they eliminate items that are not part of our core operations, highly variable or do not require a cash outlay, such as stock-based compensation expense. Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures when evaluating operating performance and for internal planning and forecasting purposes. Management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures help indicate underlying trends in the business, are important in comparing current results with prior period results and are useful to investors and financial analysts in assessing operating performance. However, these non-GAAP measures exclude items that are significant in understanding and assessing Katapult’s financial results. Therefore, these measures should not be considered in isolation or as alternatives to revenue, net loss, gross profit, cash flows from operations or other measures of profitability, liquidity or performance under GAAP. You should be aware that Katapult’s presentation of these measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies.
