Insights

Financial Analyst

MoneyLion's Q4 and FY 2024 results showcase an exceptional financial transformation, with the company achieving profitability while maintaining robust growth. The 29% year-over-year revenue increase to $546 million demonstrates accelerating momentum, with Q4 growth even stronger at 40%.

The standout achievement is MoneyLion's shift from a $45.2 million loss in 2023 to $9.1 million in net income for 2024, yielding earnings per share of $0.76. This profitability inflection occurred while nearly doubling Adjusted EBITDA to $92 million – representing a healthy 17% margin that signals strong operational efficiency and scaling economics in their digital financial ecosystem.

The company's customer acquisition engine is firing on all cylinders, with total customers growing 46% to 20.4 million and product adoption increasing 48% to 34.1 million. This product-to-customer ratio of 1.67 indicates successful cross-selling within their ecosystem. Meanwhile, loan originations grew 38% to $3.1 billion, suggesting improved unit economics and risk management capabilities.

The pending acquisition by Gen Digital represents a strategic validation of MoneyLion's business model. Gen Digital, known for consumer cybersecurity and digital protection services, likely sees significant cross-selling opportunities and customer acquisition synergies by integrating MoneyLion's financial products into its ecosystem. For MoneyLion shareholders, this acquisition provides an exit opportunity at what appears to be the peak of the company's operational performance.

The absence of forward guidance is typical for companies in acquisition mode, but the strong Q4 momentum suggests MoneyLion will enter the transaction from a position of strength. The expected closing timeline (April-September 2025) gives regulators ample time to review the transaction while allowing both companies to prepare for integration.

MoneyLion's transformation from a high-growth, unprofitable fintech to a profitable financial ecosystem demonstrates the maturation of its business model and validates its strategy of combining lending, financial content, and marketplace services. This successful execution likely contributed to making the company an attractive acquisition target for Gen Digital.

MoneyLion's ability to acquire, engage and retain customers and clients and sell or develop additional functionality, products and services to them on the MoneyLion platform; MoneyLion’s reliance on third-party partners, service providers and vendors, including its ability to comply with applicable requirements of such third parties; demand for and consumer confidence in MoneyLion’s products and services, including as a result of any adverse publicity concerning MoneyLion; any inaccurate or fraudulent information provided to MoneyLion by customers or other third parties;

MoneyLion's ability to achieve or maintain profitability in the future; intense and increasing competition in the industries in which MoneyLion and its subsidiaries operate; risks related to the proper functioning of MoneyLion’s information technology systems and data storage, including as a result of cyberattacks, data security breaches or other similar incidents or disruptions suffered by MoneyLion or third parties upon which it relies; MoneyLion’s ability to protect its intellectual property and other proprietary rights and its ability to obtain or maintain intellectual property, proprietary rights and technology licensed from third parties;

the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstances that could give rise to the right of one or both of the parties to terminate the Merger Agreement; the failure to obtain necessary regulatory approvals (and the risk that such approvals may result in the imposition of conditions that could adversely affect the combined company or the expected benefits of the proposed transaction) and the possibility that the proposed transaction does not close when expected or at all because required regulatory approval, the approval by MoneyLion’s stockholders, or other approvals and the other conditions to closing are not received or satisfied on a timely basis or at all; the possibility that the milestone may not be met and that payment may not be made with respect to the contingent value rights; the possibility that the contingent value rights may not meet the applicable listing requirements or be accepted for listing on the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC; the outcome of any legal proceedings that may be instituted against MoneyLion or Gen or the combined company; the possibility that the anticipated benefits of the proposed transaction, including anticipated cost savings and strategic gains, are not realized when expected or at all, including as a result of changes in, or problems arising from, general economic and market conditions, interest and exchange rates, monetary policy, laws and regulations and their enforcement, and the degree of competition in the geographic and business areas in which MoneyLion or Gen operate; the possibility that the integration of the two companies may be more difficult, time-consuming or costly than expected; the possibility that the proposed transaction may be more expensive or take longer to complete than anticipated, including as a result of unexpected factors or events; the diversion of management’s attention from ongoing business operations and opportunities; potential adverse reactions of MoneyLion’s or Gen’s customers or changes to business or employee relationships, including those resulting from the announcement or completion of the proposed transaction; changes in MoneyLion’s or Gen’s share price before closing; risks relating to the potential dilutive effect of shares of Gen’s common stock that may be issued pursuant to certain contingent value rights issued in connection with the proposed transaction; other factors that may affect future results of MoneyLion, Gen or the combined company; and factors discussed in MoneyLion’s or Gen’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. There may be additional risks that MoneyLion or Gen presently know or that MoneyLion or Gen currently believe are immaterial that could also cause actual results to differ from those contained in the forward-looking statements.

These factors are not necessarily all of the factors that could cause MoneyLion’s, Gen’s or the combined company’s actual results, performance or achievements to differ materially from those expressed in or implied by any of the forward-looking statements. Other factors, including unknown or unpredictable factors, also could harm MoneyLion’s, Gen’s or the combined company’s results.

Although each of MoneyLion and Gen believes that its expectations with respect to forward-looking statements are based upon reasonable assumptions within the bounds of its existing knowledge of its business and operations, there can be no assurance that actual results of MoneyLion or Gen will not differ materially from any projected future results expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Additional factors that could cause results to differ materially from those described above can be found in MoneyLion’s most recent annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024 filed today, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, and other documents subsequently filed by MoneyLion with the Securities Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and Gen’s most recent annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 29, 2024, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, and other documents subsequently filed by Gen with the SEC. The actual results anticipated may not be realized or, even if substantially realized, they may not have the expected consequences to or effects on MoneyLion, Gen or their respective businesses or operations.

In addition, forward-looking statements reflect MoneyLion’s or Gen’s expectations, plans or forecasts of future events and views as of the date of this press release. MoneyLion and Gen anticipates that subsequent events and developments will cause its assessments to change. However, while MoneyLion or Gen may elect to update these forward-looking statements at some point in the future, MoneyLion and Gen specifically disclaim any obligation to do so. These forward-looking statements should not be relied upon as representing MoneyLion’s or Gen’s assessments as of any date subsequent to the date of this press release. Accordingly, undue reliance should not be placed upon the forward-looking statements.

Financial Information; Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Adjusted EBITDA has not been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). MoneyLion management historically used and uses Adjusted EBITDA for various purposes, including as measures of performance and as a basis for strategic planning and forecasting. MoneyLion believes presenting Adjusted EBITDA provides relevant and useful information to management and investors regarding certain financial and business trends relating to MoneyLion’s results of operations. MoneyLion’s method of calculating Adjusted EBITDA may be different from other companies’ methods and, therefore, may not be comparable to those used by other companies and MoneyLion does not recommend the sole use of Adjusted EBITDA to assess its financial performance. MoneyLion management does not consider Adjusted EBITDA in isolation or as an alternative to financial measures determined in accordance with GAAP. The principal limitation of non-GAAP financial measures is that they exclude significant expenses and income that are required by GAAP to be recorded in MoneyLion’s financial statements. In addition, they are subject to inherent limitations as they reflect the exercise of judgments by management about which expense and income are excluded or included in determining non-GAAP financial measures. In order to compensate for these limitations, management presents Adjusted EBITDA in connection with MoneyLion’s GAAP results. You should review MoneyLion’s financial statements, which are included in MoneyLion’s filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, and not rely on any single financial measure to evaluate MoneyLion’s business.

A reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to net (loss) income, the most directly comparable GAAP measure, is set forth below. To the extent that forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures are provided, they are presented on a non-GAAP basis without reconciliations of such forward-looking non-GAAP measures, due to the inherent difficulty in forecasting and quantifying certain amounts that are necessary for such reconciliation, which could be material based on historical adjustments. Accordingly, a reconciliation is not available without unreasonable effort.

Definitions:

Total Customers: Defined as the cumulative number of customers that have opened at least one account, including banking, membership subscription, secured personal loan, Instacash advance, managed investment account, cryptocurrency account and customers that are monetized through our marketplace and affiliate products.
