Insights
The reported financial performance of SHF Holdings, Inc. reflects a significant uptick in annual revenue, which is a positive signal for investors and analysts monitoring the company's growth trajectory. The 85.3% increase in revenue and the 194.2% increase in Loan Book Value are indicative of the company's expanding market presence, particularly in the regulated cannabis industry. The substantial growth in the loan book suggests an aggressive lending strategy that has likely contributed to the revenue spike. However, a critical observation is the net loss reported for the full year despite the revenue increase, which raises questions about the sustainability of the current growth pattern without proportional cost control.
One must also consider the termination of the agreement with Central Bank and the subsequent loss of deposit accounts, which could be seen as a red flag for potential instability in banking relationships. Nevertheless, the company's confidence in increased deposit activity for 2024 suggests a recovery strategy that investors should monitor closely. The balance sheet shows a decrease in cash and cash equivalents, which could impact the company's liquidity and operational flexibility in the short term. Overall, the financial results indicate a company in a rapid growth phase but with underlying challenges that require careful management.
The cannabis industry is experiencing a dynamic shift with increasing legalization and acceptance and SHF Holdings' focus on providing financial services to this sector positions them at a pivotal point. The introduction of new lending and deposit products, as mentioned by the CEO, indicates an attempt to diversify revenue streams and reduce dependency on deposit fees, which is a strategic move to mitigate risks associated with a single income source. The increased interest from national financial institutions and cannabis-related businesses could be a response to the growing demand for financial services within the cannabis industry, which has historically been underserved by traditional banks due to regulatory concerns.
The company's proactive approach to restructuring deferred consideration obligations and the origination of significant loans, as seen with the $9 million loan for a cultivation facility, demonstrates an aggressive pursuit of market share. However, the loss of deposit accounts after parting ways with Central Bank may suggest challenges in maintaining partnerships, which is important in the fintech space. The company's ability to navigate these relationships will be critical to their long-term success and market position.
The regulated cannabis industry operates within a complex legal framework that can influence the financial services associated with it. SHF Holdings' engagement with this sector requires careful navigation of federal and state regulations. The termination of the agreement with Central Bank and the material loss of deposit accounts could be symptomatic of the broader compliance challenges faced by financial institutions dealing with cannabis-related businesses. It is imperative for SHF Holdings to maintain stringent compliance protocols to avoid regulatory pitfalls that could adversely affect their operations and reputation.
Moreover, the company's restructuring of obligations post-acquisition and the origination of secured loans highlight the need for robust legal due diligence and risk assessment practices to ensure the legality and security of these financial transactions. The company's strategic legal decisions, including the handling of deferred consideration and loan origination, will have significant implications for their financial health and investor confidence.

GOLDEN, Colo., April 01, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- SHF Holdings, Inc., d/b/a/ Safe Harbor Financial (“Safe Harbor” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: SHFS), a leader in facilitating financial services and credit facilities to the regulated cannabis industry, announced today its financial results for the fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2023.

“Throughout 2023, we introduced several new lending and deposit products, significantly broadening our financial service offering, setting the stage for a new path of financial growth for Safe Harbor,” said Sundie Seefried, Chief Executive Officer of Safe Harbor Financial. “With the successful rollout of our line of credit products and interest-bearing accounts last year, we started to recognize increased account fees, higher levels of investment income and derived a steady stream of loan income, all of which, allowed us to meet our goal of creating a more diversified revenue mix. Most importantly, due to the success of our lending program, a greater portion of revenue is coming from this high-margin channel, making us less dependent on deposit fees.”
“In the second half of 2023, Safe Harbor mutually agreed to terminate its agreement with Central Bank, one of our financial partners, which resulted in a material loss of deposit accounts. That said, our recent initiatives to scale our proven fintech platform have resulted in increased interest from national financial institutions and cannabis-related businesses across the country, which we are confident will result in increased deposit activity in 2024 and beyond,” concluded Seefried.

Reconciliation of net (loss) income to non-GAAP EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA (Unaudited) |
Safe Harbor Financial discloses EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, both of which are non-GAAP financial measures and are calculated as net income before taxes and depreciation and amortization expense in the case of EBITDA and further adjusted to exclude non-cash, unusual and/or infrequent costs in the case of Adjusted EBITDA. Management of the Company uses this information in evaluating period over period performance because it believes that EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA present important metrics regarding the Company’s ongoing operating performance. Investors should consider non-GAAP financial measures only as a supplement to, not as a substitute for or as superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP.
A reconciliation of net (loss) income to non-GAAP EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA is as follows:

Adjusted EBITDA | $ | 3,626,411 | $ | 1,302,093 | ||||
The increase in our income on both an EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA basis for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2023 can be attributed to several key factors. These factors include a rise in deposits and activity income, which was significantly influenced by the growth in account numbers following the Abaca acquisition. Additionally, there was an increase in employee benefits and general and administrative expenses, coupled with a decrease in professional expenses, as detailed in the ‘Discussion of our Results of Operations’ section in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023. Other adjustments include estimated future credit losses not yet realized, including amounts indemnified to Partner Colorado Credit Union (“PCCU”) for loans funded by them, change in the fair value of warrants and forward purchase derivates, change in fair value of the Forward Purchase Agreement, stock based compensation and Goodwill and long-lived intangible assets impairment. The Company had entered into a Loan Servicing Agreement with PCCU, pursuant to which the Company agreed to indemnify PCCU for claims associated with cannabis-related business activities including any loan default related losses for loans funded by PCCU; the Loan Servicing Agreement has since been superseded by the Commercial Alliance Agreement. Deferred loan origination fees and costs represent the change in net deferred loan origination fees and costs. When included with a new loan origination, we receive an upfront loan origination fee in conjunction with new loans funded by our financial institution partners and incur costs associated with originating a specific loan.

Forward-Looking Statements
Certain statements contained in this press release constitute "forward-looking statements'' within the meaning of federal securities laws. Forward-looking statements may include, but are not limited to, statements with respect to trends in the cannabis industry, including proposed changes in U.S. and state laws, rules, regulations and guidance relating to Safe Harbor's services; Safe Harbor's growth prospects and Safe Harbor's market size; Safe Harbor's projected financial and operational performance, including relative to its competitors and loan performance; new product and service offerings Safe Harbor may introduce in the future; the impact of recent volatility in the capital markets, which may adversely affect the price of the Company's securities; Safe Harbor’s ability to make the same or similar loans in the future; the outcome of any legal proceedings that may be instituted against Safe Harbor; other statements regarding Safe Harbor's expectations, hopes, beliefs, intentions or strategies regarding the future; and the other risk factors discussed in Safe Harbor's filings from time to time with the SEC. In addition, any statements that refer to projections, forecasts or other characterizations of future events or circumstances, including any underlying assumptions, are forward-looking statements. The words "anticipate," "believe," "continue," "could," "estimate," "expect," "intends," "outlook," "may," "might," "plan," "possible," "potential," "predict," "project," "should," "would," and similar expressions may identify forward-looking statements, but the absence of these words does not mean that a statement is not forward-looking. Forward-looking statements are predictions, projections and other statements about future events that are based on current expectations and assumptions and, as a result, are subject, are subject to risks and uncertainties. These forward-looking statements involve a number of risks and uncertainties (some of which are beyond the control of Safe Harbor), and other assumptions, that may cause the actual results or performance to be materially different from those expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. These and other risks are discussed in detail in the periodic reports that Safe Harbor files with the SEC, and investors are urged to review those periodic reports and Safe Harbor’s other filings with the SEC, which are accessible on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov, before making an investment decision. Safe Harbor assumes no obligation to update its forward-looking statements except as required by law.
