1.   Business Description

Affirm Holdings, Inc. (“Affirm,” the “Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our”), headquartered in San Francisco, California, provides consumers with a simpler, more transparent, and flexible alternative to traditional payment options. Our mission is to deliver honest financial products that improve lives. Through our next-generation commerce platform, partnershipsagreements with originating banks, and capital markets partners, we enable consumers to confidently pay for a purchase over time, with terms ranging from one to sixty months. When a consumer applies for a loan through our platform, the loan is underwritten using our proprietary risk model, and once approved, the consumer selects their preferred repayment option. Loans are self-originateddirectly originated or funded and issued by our originating bank partners.

Merchants partner with us to transform the consumer shopping experience and to acquire and convert customers more effectively through our frictionless point-of-sale payment solutions. Consumers get the flexibility to buy now and make simple regular payments for their purchases and merchants see increased average order value, repeat purchase rates, and an overall more satisfied customer base. Unlike legacy payment options and our competitors’ product offerings, which charge deferred or compounding interest and unexpected costs, we disclose up-front to consumers exactly what they will owe — no hidden fees, no deferred interest, no penalties.

2.   Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying interim condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”), as contained in the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”), disclosure requirements for interim financial information, and the requirements of Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2021.2022. The balance sheet as of June 30, 20212022 has been derived from the audited financial statements at that date. Management believes these interim condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, including those of a normal and recurring nature, which are necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods presented. The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year or any other interim period.

Our interim condensed financial statements have been prepared on a consolidated basis. Under this basis of presentation, our financial statements consolidate all wholly owned subsidiaries and variable interest entities (“VIEs”), in which we have a controlling financial interest. These include various business trust entities and limited partnerships established to enter into warehouse credit agreements with certain lenders for funding debt facilities and certain asset-backed securitization transactions. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Our variable interest arises from contractual, ownership, or other monetary interests in the entity, which changes with fluctuations in the fair value of the entity’s net assets. We consolidate a VIE when we are deemed to be the primary beneficiary. We assess whether or not we are the primary beneficiary of a VIE on an ongoing basis.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of interim condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires the use of estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amounts in the interim condensed consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes. Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change relate to determination of variable consideration for revenue, the allowance for credit losses, capitalized internal-use software development costs, valuation allowance for deferred tax assets, loss on loan
12

Table of Contents
purchase commitment, the fair value of servicing assets and liabilities, discount on self-originateddirectly originated loans, the fair

Table of Contents
value and useful lives of tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed resulting from business combinations, the fair value of assets acquired and any contingent consideration related totransferred in business combinations, the evaluation for impairment of intangible assets and goodwill, the incremental borrowing rate used in discounting our lease liabilities, the fair value of available for sale debt securities including retained interests in our securitization trusts, the fair value of residual certificates issued by our securitization trusts held by third parties, and stock-based compensation, including the fair value of warrants issued to nonemployees. We base our estimates on market-based inputs, historical experience, current events, and other factors we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. ToThese estimates are subjective in nature and to the extent that there are material differences between these estimates and actual results, our financial condition or operating results willin future periods may be materially affected.

These estimates are based on information available as of the date of the interim condensed consolidated financial statements; therefore, actual results could differ materially from those estimates.  

Immaterial Correction of Prior Period Amounts

Subsequent to the issuance of our financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2021, which was filed with the SEC on September 17, 2021, we identified understatements in certain prior period amounts related to the fair value measurement of contingent consideration and stock-based compensation.

We remeasure the fair value of the contingent consideration liability recorded in connection with the PayBright, Inc. (“PayBright”) acquisition at each reporting date. An incorrect input in the Monte Carlo simulation used to estimate the fair value as of June 30, 2021, resulted in an understatement of accrued expenses and other liabilities of $5.6 million as of June 30, 2021 as previously reported.
We measure stock-based compensation based on the fair value of an award at the grant date and recognize expense over the vesting period of the award based on the estimated portion of the award that is expected to vest. An incorrect determination of the grant date and service inception dates for certain awards granted prior to our initial public offering (“IPO”), as well as incorrect treatment of expense recognition for certain terminated employees, resulted in an understatement of additional paid in capital of $4.5 million as of June 30, 2021 as previously reported.

Accordingly, we have corrected the relevant financial statements and related footnotes as of June 30, 2021 within these interim condensed consolidated financial statements from amounts previously reported. We have evaluated the materiality of these misstatements based on an analysis of quantitative and qualitative factors and concluded they were not material to the prior period financial statements, individually or in aggregate.

The following table provides the impact of the correction on our consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2021, as presented below (in thousands):

We also determined that stock based compensation previously recorded during the three and nine months ended March 31, 2021 was understated by $25.0 million, as the estimated fair value of RSUs granted during the three months ended December 31, 2020 did not reflect an increase in share value due to the anticipated IPO. Such matter was corrected and properly reported in our consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended

June 30, 2021, and is prospectively corrected in the accompanying unaudited interim financial statements for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2021. As a result, the accompanying unaudited interim financial information for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2021 has been corrected to reflect the total combined increase in stock based compensation expense of $40.0 million from amounts previously reported.

We determined, based on consideration of quantitative and qualitative factors, that the errors had an immaterial impact, individually and in aggregate, on our previously issued financial statements. The following tables show the affected line items (in thousands) for the periods ended March 31, 2021.

Significant Accounting Policies

Except for the addition of policies described below for securities available for sale, thereThere were no material changes to our significant accounting policies as disclosed in Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2021,2022, which was filed with the SEC on September 17, 2021.August 29, 2022.

Securities Available for Sale

We hold certain investments in marketable debt securities and retained interests in our unconsolidated securitization trusts which are accounted for under ASC Topic 320, “Investments - Debt Securities” (“ASC 320”). We have classified these investments as available for sale, as defined within ASC 320. These investments are held at fair value with changes in fair value recorded in unrealized gain (loss) on securities available for sale, net within other comprehensive income (loss). As of the end of each reporting period, management reviews each security where the fair value is less than the amortized cost to determine whether any portion of the decline in fair value is due to a credit loss and/or whether or not we intend to sell or will be required to sell such security before recovery of its amortized cost basis. The portion of any decline in fair value which management identifies as a credit loss will be recognized as an allowance for credit losses through other (expense) income, net rather than unrealized gain (loss) on securities available for sale, net. To the extent management intends to sell or may be required to sell a security in an unrealized loss position, we 1) reverse any previously recorded allowance for credit losses with an offsetting entry to reduce the amortized cost basis of the security and 2) write-off any remaining portion of the amortized cost basis to equal its fair value, with this change recorded through other (expense) income, net.

Interest income for available for sale securities is recorded within other (expense) income, net.

Available for sale securities initially purchased with less than 90 days until maturity with quoted transaction prices in an active market are classified as cash and cash equivalents.

With respect to retained interests in our securitization trusts, we apply the guidance in ASC Topic 325, “Investments - Other” (“ASC 325”) relating to beneficial interests. Accordingly, we recognize interest income each
15

Table of Contents
period based on the effective interest rate calculated using expected cash flows. Changes in the timing of expected cash flows are accounted for prospectively through an adjustment to interest income. When fair value is below amortized cost, we record an allowance for credit losses measured based on the difference between amortized cost and projected cash flows discounted at the effective interest rate. The allowance for credit losses is capped at the difference between amortized cost and fair value.

Refer to Note 12. Investments for additional information.

Sales and Marketing Costs

Sales and marketing costs include the expense related to warrants and other share-based payments granted to our enterprise partners. See Note 6. Balance Sheet Components for more information on these arrangements. Sales and marketing costs also include salaries and personnel-related costs, as well as costs of general marketing and promotional activities, promotional event programs, sponsorships, and allocated overhead. A portion of these costs related to general marketing and promotional activities are considered advertising costs within the meaning of ASC Topic 720, “Other Expenses” (“ASC 720”), and are expensed as incurred. Advertising costs totaled $12.2 million and $55.6 million for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2022, respectively, and $9.1 million and $24.4 million for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2021, respectively.

Recently Adopted Accounting Standards

Convertible Debt Instruments

In August 2020, the FASB issued Accounting Standard Update (“ASU”) 2020-06, “Debt — Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging — Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40),” which simplifies the accounting for convertible instruments. The guidance removes certain accounting models that separate the embedded conversion features from the host contract for convertible instruments. Either a modified retrospective method of transition or a fully retrospective method of transition is permissible for the adoption of this standard. ASU 2020-06 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted no earlier than the fiscal year beginning after December 15, 2020. We early adopted the new standard effective July 1, 2021 on a modified retrospective basis. The adoption of the new standard did not have any impact on our financial statements as of the adoption date. As further discussed in Note 10.Debt, the Company issued certain convertible senior notes in November 2021, and the accounting for these instruments was based on the guidance in ASU 2020-06.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

Reference Rate Reform

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, “Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting.” Subject to meeting certain criteria, the new guidance provides optional expedients and exceptions to applying contract modification accounting under existing U.S. GAAP, to address the expected phase out of the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”). This ASU is effective for all entities upon issuance as of March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022. In January 2021, the FASB also issued ASU 2021-01, “Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848),” which provides additional optional expedients and exceptions applicable to all entities that have derivative instruments that use an interest rate for margining, discounting, or contract price alignment that is modified as a result of reference rate reform. This ASU is effective for all entities upon issuance as of January 7, 2021 through December 31, 2022. We have reviewed all our financial agreements that utilize LIBOR as the reference rate and determined there is no material impact to our interim condensed consolidated financial statements as of March 31, 2022. Throughout the remaining effective period for
16

Table of Contents
ASU 2020-04 and ASU 2021-01, we will continue to evaluate the available relief measures within each of these amendments and will determine any impact on our consolidated financial statements and disclosures, as applicable.

Business Combinations

In October 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-08, “Business Combinations (Topic 805): Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers,” which requires contract assets and contract liabilities, such as deferred revenue, acquired in a business combination to be recognized and measured in accordance with Topic 606 (Revenue from Contracts with Customers). ASU 2021-08 is expected to reduce diversity in practice and increase comparability for both the recognition and measurement of acquired revenue contracts with customers at the date of and after a business combination. The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022 and should be applied prospectively to acquisitions occurring on or after the effective date. Early adoption is permitted, including for interim periods, and is applicable to all business combinations for which the acquisition date occurs within the beginning of the fiscal year of adoption. We are in the process of evaluating the impact of adopting this accounting standard update on our consolidated financial statements and disclosures.

Financial Instruments - Credit Losses

    In March 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-02, “Financial Instruments— Credit Losses (Topic 326), Troubled Debt Restructurings and Vintage Disclosure” which addresses areas identified by the FASB as part of its post-implementation review of the current expected credit losses model or “CECL” previously issued in ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments — Credit Losses (Topic 326)”. The amendments in this ASU eliminate the accounting guidance for troubled debt restructurings by creditors while enhancing the disclosure requirements for loan refinancing and restructurings made with borrowers experiencing financial difficulty. In addition, the amendments require a public business entity to disclose current-period gross write-offs by year of origination for financing receivables and net investment in leases in the vintage disclosures. For entities that have adopted ASU 2016-13, ASU 2022-02 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted if an entity has adopted ASU 2016-13. Amendments in this ASU should be applied prospectively except for the transition method related to the accounting for troubled debt restructurings in which an entity has the option to apply a modified retrospective transition method resulting in a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings in the period of adoption. We early adopted the new standard effective July 1, 2022 on a prospective basis. The adoption of the guidance did not have a material impact on our interim condensed financial statements.

Business Combinations

In October 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-08, “Business Combinations (Topic 805): Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers”, which requires contract assets and contract liabilities, such as deferred revenue, acquired in a business combination to be recognized and measured in accordance with Topic 606 (Revenue from Contracts with Customers). ASU 2021-08 is expected to reduce diversity in practice and increase comparability for both the recognition and measurement of acquired revenue contracts with customers at the date of and after a business combination. The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022 and should be applied prospectively to acquisitions occurring on or after the effective date. Early adoption is permitted, including for interim periods, and is applicable to all business combinations for which the acquisition date occurs within the beginning of the fiscal year of adoption. We early adopted the new standard effective January 1, 2023 on a prospective basis. The adoption of the guidance did not have a material impact on our interim condensed financial statements.

In December 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-06, “Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Deferral of the Sunset Date of Topic 848”, to extend the temporary accounting rules under Topic 848 from December 31, 2022 to December 31, 2024. These ASUs are ineffective for all entities upon their respective issuance dates through December 31, 2024.

Merchant Network Revenue

Merchant partners (or integrated merchants) are generally charged a fee based on gross merchandise volume (GMV) processed through the Affirm platform. The fees vary depending on the individual arrangement between us and each merchant and on the terms of the product offering. The fee is recognized at the point in time the merchant successfully confirms the transaction, which is when the terms of the executed merchant agreement are fulfilled. We may originate certain loans via our wholly-owned subsidiaries, with zero or below market interest rates. In these instances, the par value of the loans originated is in excess of the fair market value of such loans, resulting in a loss, which we record as a reduction to merchant network revenue. In certain cases, the losses incurred on loans originated for a merchant may exceed the total network revenue earned on those loans. To the extent we do not expect to recover the losses in future periods, we record the excess loss amounts as a sales and marketing expense.

A portion of merchant network revenue relates to affiliate network revenue, which is generated when a user makes a purchase on a merchant’s website after being directed from an advertisement on Affirm’s website or mobile application. We earn a fixed placement fee and/or commission as a percentage of the associated sale. Revenue is recognized at the point in time when the performance obligation has been fulfilled, which is when the sale occurs.

Table of Contents
For the three and nine months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, there were no merchants that exceeded 10% of total revenue.

Virtual Card Network Revenue

We have agreements with issuer processors to facilitate transactions through the issuance of virtual debit cards to be used by consumers at checkout. Consumers can apply for a virtual debit card through the Affirm app and, upon approval, receive a single-use virtual debit card to be used for their purchase online or offline at a non-integrated merchant. The virtual debit card is funded at the time a transaction is authorized using cash held by the issuer processor in a reserve fund. Our originating bank partner then originates a loan to the consumer once the transaction is confirmed by the merchant. The non-integrated merchants are charged interchange fees by the issuer processor for virtual debit card transactions, and the issuer processor shares a portion of this revenue with us. We also leverage this issuer processor as a means of integrating certain merchants. Similarly, for these arrangements with integrated merchants, the merchant is charged interchange fees by the issuer processor and the issuer processor shares a portion of this revenue with us.

Table of Contents
We accrue interest income using the effective interest method. Interest income on a loan is accrued daily, based on the finance charge disclosed to the consumer, over the term of the loan based upon the principal outstanding. The accrual of interest on a loan is suspended if a formal dispute with the consumer involving either Affirm or the merchant of record is opened, or a loan is 120 days past due. Upon the resolution of a dispute with the consumer, the accrual of interest is resumed, and any interest that would have been earned during the disputed period is retroactively accrued. As of March 31, 20222023 and June 30, 2021,2022, the balance of loans held for investment on non-accrual status was $1.5$1.3 million and $1.1$1.7 million, respectively.

Gain on Sales of Loans

We sell certain loans we originate or purchase from our originating bank partners directly to third-party investors or to securitizations. We recognize a gain or loss on sale of loans sold to third parties or to unconsolidated securitizations as the difference between the proceeds received and the carrying value of the loan, adjusted for the initial recognition of any assets or liabilities incurred upon sale, which generally include a net servicing asset or liability in connection with our ongoing obligation to continue to service the loans and a recourse liability based on our estimate of future losses in connection with our obligation to repurchase loans that do not meet certain contractual requirements and such information about the loan was unknown at the time of sale.

Servicing Income

Servicing income includes contractual fees specified in our servicing agreements with third-party loan owners and unconsolidated securitizations that are earned from providing professional services to manage loan portfolios on their behalf. Servicing income also includes fair value adjustments for servicing assets and servicing liabilities.

Loans held for investment includes loans originated through our originating bank partners and directly originated loans. The majority of the loans that are underwritten using our technology platform and originated by our originating bank partners are later purchased by us. We purchased loans from our originating bank partners in the amount of $3,013.8 million$3.7 billion and $8,631.2 million for$11.7 billion during the three and nine months ended March 31, 2022,2023, respectively, and $2,031.2 million$3.0 billion and $5,620.8 million for$8.6 billion during the three and nine months ended March 31, 2021,2022, respectively.

These loans have a variety of lending terms as well as maturities ranging from one to sixty months. Given that our loan portfolio focuses on one product segment, point-of-sale unsecured installment loans, we generally evaluate the entire portfolio as a single homogeneous loan portfolio and make merchant or program specific adjustments as necessary.

We closely monitor credit quality for our loan receivables to manage and evaluate our related exposure to credit risk. Credit risk management begins with initial underwriting, where loan applications are assessed against the credit underwriting policy and procedures for our self-originateddirectly originated loans and originating bank partner loans, and continues through to full repayment of a loan. To assess a consumer who requests a loan, we use, among other indicators, internally developed risk models using detailed information from external sources, such as credit bureaus where available, and internal historical experience, including the consumer’s prior repayment history on our platform as well as other measures. We combine these factors to establish a proprietary score as a credit quality indicator.

Our proprietary score (“ITACs”) is assigned to most loans facilitated through our technology platform, ranging from zero to 100, with 100 representing the highest credit quality and therefore the lowest likelihood of loss. The ITACs model analyzes the characteristics of a consumer'sconsumers attributes that are shown to be predictive of both willingness and ability to repay including, but not limited to: basic features of a consumer'sconsumers credit profile, a consumer'sconsumers prior repayment performance with other creditors, current credit utilization, and legal and policy changes. When a consumer passes both fraud and credit policy checks, the application is assigned an ITACs score. ITACs is also used for portfolio performance monitoring. Our credit risk team closely tracks the distribution of ITACs at the portfolio level, as well as ITACs at the individual loan level to monitor for signs of a changing credit profile within the portfolio. Repayment performance within each ITACs band is also monitored to support both the

We maintain an allowance for credit losses at a level sufficient to absorb expected credit losses based on evaluating known and inherent risks in our loan portfolio. The allowance for credit losses is determined based on our current estimate of expected credit losses over the remaining contractual term, historical credit losses, consumer payment trends, estimates of recoveries, and future expectations as of each balance sheet date. Adjustments to the allowance each period for changes in our estimate of lifetime expected credit losses are recognized in earnings through the provision for credit losses presented on our interim condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. When available information confirms that specific loans or portions thereof are uncollectible, identified amounts are charged against the allowance for credit losses. Loans are charged-off in accordance with our

7. Leases

We lease facilities under operating leases with various expiration dates through 2030. We have the option to renew or extend our leases. Certain lease agreements include the option to terminate the lease with prior written notice ranging from 180 daysnine months to one year. As of March 31, 2022,2023, we have not considered such provisions in the determination of the lease term, as it is not reasonably certain these options will be exercised. Leases have remaining terms that range from less than one year to nineeight years.

We have also elected the short-term lease exception and will not recognize right-of-use assets or lease liabilities for qualifying leases with a term of less than 12 months from lease commencement.

Several leases require us to obtain standby letters of credit, naming the lessor as a beneficiary. These letters of credit act as security for the faithful performance by us of all terms, covenants and conditions of the lease agreement. The cash collateral and deposits for the letters of credit have been recognized as restricted cash in the interim condensed consolidated balance sheets and totaled $9.6 million and $9.9$9.7 million as of both March 31, 20222023 and June 30, 2021, respectively.2022.

We would only experience a loss if the contractual repurchase price of the loan exceeds the fair value on the repurchase date.

Warehouse Credit Facilities

Through trusts,subsidiaries, we entered into warehouse credit facilities with certain lenders to finance the purchase and origination of our loans. Each trust entered into a credit agreement and security agreement with a third-party as administrative agent and a national banking association as collateral trustee and paying agent. Borrowings under these agreements are referred to as funding debt and these proceeds from the borrowings can only be used for the purposes of facilitating loan funding and origination, with advance rates ranging from 79%82% to 88% of the total collateralized balance. These trusts are bankruptcy-remote special-purpose vehicles in which creditors do not have recourse against the general credit of Affirm. These revolving facilities mature between fiscal years 2024 and 2029, and subject to covenant compliance, generally permit borrowings up to 12 months prior to the final maturity date of each respective facility. As of March 31, 2022,2023, the aggregate commitment amount of these facilities was $1,975.0 million$4.0 billion on a revolving basis, of which $702.0 million$1.5 billion was drawn, with $1,272.7 million$2.5 billion remaining available. Some of the loans originated by us or purchased from the originating bank partners are pledged as collateral for borrowings in our facilities. The unpaid principal balance of these loans totaled $803.7 million$1.8 billion and $664.1 million$0.8 billion as of March 31, 20222023 and June 30, 2021,2022, respectively. Our U.S. based warehouse credit facilities and certain lending facilities funding the origination of loans outside of the U.S., have been classified as VIEs and are bankruptcy-remote special-purpose vehicles in which creditors do not have recourse against the general credit of Affirm. Funding debt, net of deferred issuance costs, primarily held within our VIEs represents $1.5 billion and $0.7 billion, as of March 31, 2023 and June 30, 2022, respectively.

Interest expense also includes capitalized transaction fees which are amortized on a straight-line basis over the term of the warehouse agreement. The contractual interest at an annualrate varies across each warehouse facility and is either based on a benchmark interest rate (such as LIBOR, SOFR, Canadian Prime Rate, CDOR, or the Government of LIBORCanada Central Bank Rate), or an alternative commercial paper rate (which is either (i) the per annum rate equivalent to the weighted-average of the per annum rates at which all commercial paper notes were issued by certain lenders to fund advances or maintain loans, or (ii) the daily weighted-average of LIBOR, as set forth in the applicable credit agreement)loans), plus a spread ranging from 1.65%1.25% to 4.00%4.25%. Interest is payable monthly. In addition, these agreements require payment of a monthly unused commitment fee ranging from 0.00% to 0.75% per annum on the undrawn portion available.

These agreements contain certain customary negative covenants and financial covenants including maintaining certain levels of minimum liquidity, maximum leverage, and minimum tangible net worth. As of March 31, 2022,2023, we were in compliance with all applicable covenants in the agreements.

Other Funding Facilities

Prior to our acquisition of PayBright on January 1, 2021, PayBright entered into various credit facilities utilized to finance the origination of loan receivables in Canada. Similar to our warehouse credit facilities, borrowings under these agreements are referred to as funding debt, and proceeds from the borrowings may only be used for the purposes of facilitating loan funding and origination. These facilities are secured by PayBright loan receivables pledged to the respective facility as collateral, mature in 2022, and bear interest based on a benchmark rate plus a spread ranging from 1.25% to 4.25%.

These agreements contain certain customary negative covenants and financial covenants including maintaining certain levels of minimum liquidity, maximum leverage, and minimum tangible net worth at the PayBright subsidiary level or the Affirm Holdings level. As of March 31, 2022, we were in compliance with all applicable covenants in the agreements.

Repurchase Agreements

We entered into certain sale and repurchase agreements pursuant to our retained interests in our off-balance sheet securitizations where we have sold these securities to a counterparty with an obligation to repurchase at a future date and price. The repurchase agreements each have an initial term of three months and subject to mutual agreement by Affirm and the counterparty, we may enter into a repurchase date extension for an additional three month term at market interest rates on such extension date. As of March 31, 2022,2023, the interest rates were 1.58%6.68% for 2022-X1 and 1.79% for 2021-Z1 and 2021-Z2 onboth the senior pledged securities and 3.23% for 2022-X1and 3.44%

Convertible Senior Notes

On November 23, 2021, we issued $1,725 million in aggregate principal amount of 0% convertible senior notes due 2026 (the “2026 Notes”) in a private placement to qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The total net proceeds from this offering, after deducting debt issuance costs, were approximately $1,704 million. The 2026 Notes represent senior unsecured obligations of the Company. The 2026 Notes do not bear interest except in special circumstances described below, and the principal amount of the 2026 Notes does not accrete. The 2026 Notes mature on November 15, 2026.

Each $1,000 of principal of the 2026 Notes will initially be convertible into 4.6371 shares of our common stock, which is equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $215.65 per share, subject to adjustment upon the occurrence of certain specified events set forth in the indenture governing the 2026 Notes (the “Indenture”). Holders of the 2026 Notes may convert their 2026 Notes at their option at any time on or after August 15, 2026 until close of business on the second scheduled trading day immediately preceding the maturity date of November 15, 2026. Further, holders of the 2026 Notes may convert all or any portion of their 2026 Notes at their option prior to the close of business on the business day immediately preceding August 15, 2026, only under the following circumstances:

1) during any calendar quarter commencing after March 31, 2022 (and only during such calendar quarter), if the last reported sale price of the Class A common stock for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) during a period of 30 consecutive trading days ending on, and including, the last trading day of the immediately preceding calendar quarter is greater than or equal to 130% of the conversion price on each applicable trading day;

2) during the five business day period after any 5five consecutive trading day period (the measurement period) in which the trading price (as defined in the indenture governing the 2026 Notes) per $1,000 principal amount of the 2026 Notes for each trading day of the measurement period was less than 98% of the product of the last reported sale price of the Company’s Class A common stock and the conversion rate on each such trading day;

3) if the Company calls any or all of the notes for redemption, at any time prior to the close of business on the scheduled trading day immediately preceding the redemption date; or

4) upon the occurrence of certain specified corporate events.

Upon conversion of the 2026 Notes, the Company will pay or deliver, as the case may be, cash, shares of our common stock or a combination of cash and shares of our common stock, at the Company’s election. If we satisfy our conversion obligation solely in cash or through payment and delivery, as the case may be, of a combination of cash and shares of our common stock, the amount of cash and shares of common stock, if any, due
29

upon conversion will be based on a daily conversion value (as set forth in the Indenture) calculated on a proportionate basis for each trading day in a 40 trading day observation period.

No sinking fund is provided for the 2026 Notes. We may not redeem the notes prior to November 20, 2024. We may redeem for cash all or part of the notes on or after November 20, 2024 if the last reported sale price of our Class A common stock has been at least 130% of the conversion price then in effect for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) during any 30 consecutive trading day period (including the last trading day of such

period) ending on, and including, the trading day immediately preceding the date on which we provide notice of redemption at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid special interest, if any.

If a fundamental change (as defined in the Indenture) occurs prior to the maturity date, holders of the 2026 Notes may require us to repurchase all or a portion of their notes for cash at a repurchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the 2026 Notes, plus any accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the repurchase date. In addition, if specific corporate events occur prior to the maturity date of the 2026 Notes, we will be required to increase the conversion rate for holders who elect to convert their 2026 Notes in connection with such corporate events.

During the three and nine months ended March 31, 2023, we entered into a series of privately negotiated transactions with certain holders of our 2026 Notes, pursuant to which we paid an aggregate amount of $206.6 million in cash for the repurchase of $299.1 million aggregate principal amount of our 2026 Notes (the “2026 Note Repurchases”). The carrying amount of the extinguished 2026 Notes was approximately $296.4 million resulting in a $89.8 million gain on early extinguishment of debt, which is reported as a component of other income, net within our interim consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income. In exchange for paying cash pursuant to the 2026 Note Repurchases, we received and canceled the repurchased 2026 Notes.

As of March 31, 2022,2023, the remaining life of the 2026 Notes is approximately 5644 months.

Revolving Credit Facility

On January 19, 2021, we entered into a revolving credit agreement with a syndicate of commercial banks for a $185.0 million unsecured revolving credit facility. This facility bears interest at a rate equal to, at our option, either (a) a Eurodollar rate determined by reference to adjusted LIBOR for the interest period, plus an applicable margin of 2.50% per annum or (b) a base rate determined by reference to the highest of (i) the federal funds rate plus 0.50% per annum, (ii) the rate last quoted by The Wall Street Journal as the U.S. prime rate, and (iii) the one-month adjusted LIBOR plus 1.00% per annum, in each case, plus an applicable margin of 1.50% per annum. The revolving credit agreement has a final maturity date of January 19, 2024. The facility contains certain covenants and restrictions, including certain financial maintenance covenants, and requires payment of a monthly unused commitment fee of 0.35% per annum on the undrawn balance available. We executed our right to terminate the revolving credit agreement effective December 15, 2021and no early termination penalties were incurred. We had not drawn on the facility and there was no outstanding balance to be repaid. Upon termination, we accelerated $1.2 million of issuance costs which were recorded in other (expense) income, net.

On February 4, 2022, we entered into a revolving credit agreement with a syndicate of commercial banks for a $165.0 million unsecured revolving credit facility. On May 16, 2022, we increased unsecured revolving commitments under the facility to $205.0 million. This facility bears interest at a rate equal to, at our option, either (a) a Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) rate determined by reference to the forward-looking term SOFR rate for the interest period, plus an applicable margin of 1.85% per annum or (b) a base rate determined by reference to the highest of (i) the federal funds rate plus 0.50% per annum, (ii) the rate last quoted by the Wall Street Journal as the U.S. prime rate and (iii) the one-month forward-looking term SOFR rate plus 1.0%1.00% per annum, in each case, plus an applicable margin of 0.85% per annum. The revolving credit agreement has a final maturity date of February 4, 2025. The facility contains certain covenants and restrictions, including certain financial maintenance covenants, and requires payment of a monthly unused commitment fee of 0.20% per annum on the undrawn balance available. There are no borrowings outstanding under the facility as of March 31, 2022.2023.

11.  Securitization and Variable Interest Entities

Consolidated VIEs

We consolidate VIEs when we are deemed to be the primary beneficiary.

Warehouse Credit Facilities

We established certain entities, deemed to be VIEs, to enter into warehouse credit facilities for the purpose of purchasing loans from our originating bank partners and funding self-originateddirectly originated loans. Refer to Note 10. Debt for additional information. The creditors of the VIEs have no recourse to the general credit of Affirm and the liabilities of the VIEs can only be settled by the respective VIEs’ assets; however, as the servicer of the loans pledged to our warehouse funding facilities, we have the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the VIEs' economic performance. In addition, we retain significant economic exposure to the pledged loans and therefore, we are the primary beneficiary.

Securitizations

In connection with our asset-backed securitization program, we sponsor and establish trusts (deemed to be VIEs) to ultimately purchase loans facilitated by our platform. Securities issued from our asset-backed securitizations are senior or subordinated, based on the waterfall criteria of loan payments to each security class. The subordinated residual interests issued from these transactions are first to absorb credit losses in accordance with the waterfall criteria. For these VIEs, the creditors have no recourse to the general credit of Affirm and the liabilities of the VIEs can only be settled by the respective VIEs’ assets. Additionally, the assets of the VIEs can be used only to settle obligations of the VIEs.

We consolidate securitization VIEs when we are deemed to be the primary beneficiary and therefore have the power to direct the activities that most significantly affect the VIEs’ economic performance and a variable interest that could potentially be significant to the VIE. Through our role as the servicer, we have the power to direct the activities that most significantly affect the VIEs’ economic performance. In evaluating whether we have a variable interest that could potentially be significant to the VIE, we consider our retained interests. We also earn a servicing fee which has a senior distribution priority in the payment waterfall.

In evaluating whether we are the primary beneficiary, management considers both qualitative and quantitative factors regarding the nature, size and form of our involvement with the VIEs. Management assesses whether we are the primary beneficiary of the VIEs on an ongoing basis.

Where we consolidate the securitization trusts, the loans held in the securitization trusts are included in loans held for investment, and the notes sold to third-party investors are recorded in notes issued by securitization trusts in the interim condensed consolidated balance sheets.

As of March 31, 2022, we consolidated Affirm Asset Securitization Trust 2020-Z1 (“2020-Z1”), Affirm Asset Securitization Trust 2020-A (“2020-A”), Affirm Asset Securitization Trust 2020-Z2 (“2020-Z2”), Affirm Asset Securitization Trust 2021-A (“2021-A”) and Affirm Asset Securitization Trust 2021-B (“2021-B”). Each securitization trust issued interest-bearing notes and residual certificates to finance the purchase of the loans facilitated by our platform. At the closing of each securitization, we contributed loans, facilitated through our technology platform and purchased from our originating bank partners, with an aggregate outstanding principal balance of $2,024.3 million. The 2020-Z1 and 2020-Z2 securitizations are secured by static pools of loans contributed at closing, whereas the 2020-A, 2021-A, and 2021-B securitization are revolving and we may contribute additional loans from time to time until the end of the revolving period. For the 2020-Z2 securitization, we purchased $27.9 million of loan receivables from our third-party loan buyers which were then contributed to the trust.

Table of Contents
For each securitization, the residual certificates represent the right to receive excess cash on the loans each collection period after all fees and required distributions have been made to the note holders on the related payment date. For 2020-Z1, 2020-A, 2021-A and 2021-B, all notes were sold to third-party investors andthe majority of consolidated securitization VIEs, we retainedretain 100% of the residual trust certificates issued by the securitization trusts. For 2020-Z2, all notes were sold to third-party investors and we retained 93.3%trust. Any portion of the residual certificates issued by the securitization trust, and a third-party investor holds the remaining 6.7% of the residual certificates in 2020-Z2. The residual trust certificates held bysold to third-party investors are measured at fair value, using a discounted cash flow model, and presented within accrued expenses and other liabilities on the interim condensed consolidated balance sheets. In addition to the retained residual certificates, our continued involvement includes loan servicing responsibilities over the life of the underlying loans.

We defer and amortize debt issuance costs for consolidated securitization trusts on a straight-line basis over the expected life of the notes.

WeVIEs include securitization trusts where we did not retain significant economic exposure through our variable interests and therefore we determined that we are not the primary beneficiary as of March 31, 2022.

2021-Z1

On May 5, 2021, the notes under 2021-Z1 securitization were issued as a single class: Class A in the amount of $320.0 million (the “2021-Z1 notes”). The 2021-Z1 notes bear interest at a fixed rate of 1.07% and have a maturity date of August 15, 2025. Principal and interest payments began in June 2021 and are payable monthly.

The 2021-Z1 securitization is secured by a static pool of loans which were contributed at the closing date to the 2021-Z1 trust. The loans contributed at closing were facilitated through our technology platform and purchased from our originating bank partners, with an aggregate outstanding principal balance of $351.0 million. Of the loans sold to the 2021-Z1 trust, we purchased $41.4 million of loan receivables from one of our third-party loan buyers, which were contributed to the trust at closing.

At closing, we retained 5% of the 2021-Z1 notes and 86.9% of the residual certificates issued by the 2021-Z1 trust. The third-party loan contributor received 13.1% of the residual certificates at closing. On May 17, 2021, we sold a majority of the residual certificates retained at closing, comprising 81.9% of the par value, to five third-party investors. Subsequent to this sale, we retained only a 5% vertical interest in the 2021-Z1 trust via our ownership of
36

Table of Contents
5% par amount of the 2021-Z1 notes and 5% par amount of the residual interests. We were required to retain these interests for compliance with U.S. risk retention rules.

We initially consolidated the 2021-Z1 trust at closing due to retaining a majority of the residual interest. However, upon completing the subsequent third-party sale of 81.9% of the residual certificates on May 17, 2021, we determined that we no longer had significant economic exposure through our variable interests and as such, we determined that we were no longer the primary beneficiary as of this date.

Upon deconsolidating the 2021-Z1 trust, we recognized a gain of $16.7 million, primarily driven by the gain on sale of the loans sold to the trust at closing.

2021-Z2

Non-marketable Equity Securities

Non-marketable equity securities which do not have a readily determinable fair value are measured at cost less impairment, if any, and adjusted for changes resulting from observable price changes in orderly transactions for an identical or similar investment in the same issuer (the “measurement alternative”).

Unrealized and realized gains and losses on the investment due to impairment or observable price changes in orderly transaction for an identical or similar investment of the same issuer, if any, are recognized in other (expense) income, net on our interim condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss and a new carrying value is established for the investment upon such recognition.

Equity investments without a readily determinable fair value held at cost were $33.2 million and $11.3$43.2 million as of both March 31, 20222023 and June 30, 2021, respectively,2022 and are included in other assets within the interim condensed consolidated balance sheets.

There have been no unrealized or realized gains and losses due to observable changes in orderly transactions and we did not record any impairment fforor the three and nine months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022 or March 31, 2021.

13.   Derivative Financial Instruments

We use derivative financial instruments (“derivatives”) to manage exposure to variable interest rates. Our primary objective in holding derivatives is to reduce the volatility in cash flows associated with our funding activities, arising from changes in interest rates. We do not employ derivatives for trading or speculative purposes.

As of March 31, 2023, we used a combination of interest rate cap agreements and interest rate swaps to manage interest costs and the risk associated with variable interest rates. FASB ASC 815-10 requires that an entity recognize all derivative instruments as either assets or liabilities in the statement of financial position. In accordance with that Subtopic, we designate certain derivative instruments as cash flow hedges, while others are not designated as hedges. Certain of our derivative agreements provide for netting arrangements for contracts that settle with the same counterparty, however, we do not offset assets and liabilities under these arrangements for financial statement presentation purposes. As such, the fair values are presented gross within other assets and accrued expenses and other liabilities. Offsetting collateral received by or paid to the counterparty is presented gross within accrued expenses and other liabilities or other assets, as applicable, on the interim condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Cash Flow Hedges

We have interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges in order to mitigate our exposure to changes in interest rates on our variable rate warehouse funding debt. The interest rate swaps involve the receipt of variable-rate amounts from a counterparty in exchange for fixed-rate payments over the life of the agreements without exchange of the underlying notional amount. These swaps that qualify as cash flow hedges are documented and designated as such when we enter into the contracts. In accordance with our risk management policies, we structure our hedges with terms similar to that of the item being hedged. We formally assess, at inception of the hedge accounting relationship and on a quarterly basis, whether derivatives designated as cash flow hedges are highly effective in offsetting changes to the forecasted cash flows of the hedged items.

The gain or loss on the derivatives is recorded in other comprehensive income (loss) (“OCI”) and reclassified into earnings when the hedged cash flows are recognized in funding costs within the interim consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income. The amount that is reclassified into earnings is presented in the interim consolidated statements of income in funding costs, the same line item in which the hedged transaction is recognized.

Derivatives Not Designated as Hedges

We have interest rate caps and interest rate swaps that are not designated as hedging instruments. We enter into these contracts to manage interest rate risk. Any changes in the fair value of these financial instruments are reflected in other income, net, on the interim condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.

14.   Fair Value of Financial Assets and Liabilities

ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurement” (“ASC 820”) establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the use of inputs used in valuation methodologies into the following three levels:

Level 1: Inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices, unadjusted, for identical assets or liabilities in active markets. A quoted price in an active market provides the most reliable evidence of fair value and shall be used to measure fair value whenever available.

41

Table of Contents
Level 2: Inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; or inputs to the valuation methodology that are derived principally from or can be corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.

Level 3: Inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement. Level 3 assets and liabilities include financial instruments whose value is determined using discounted cash flow methodologies, as well as instruments for which the determination of fair value requires significant management judgment or estimation.

Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis (Level 2)

Securities Available for Sale

As of March 31, 2022,2023, we held marketable securities classified as available for sale. Management obtains pricing from one or more third-party pricing services for the purpose of determining fair value. Whenever available, the fair value is based on quoted bid prices as of the end of the trading day. When quoted prices are not available, other methods may be utilized including evaluated prices provided by third-party pricing services.

Derivative Instruments

Our primary objective in holding derivatives is to reduce the volatility in cash flows associated with our funding activities, arising from changes in interest rates. We do not employ derivatives for trading or speculative purposes.

As of March 31, 2022, we used a combination of interest rate cap agreements and interest rate swaps to manage interest costs and the risk associated with variable interest rates. Neither the interest rate caps or the interest rate swaps have been designated as hedging instruments.

As of March 31, 20222023 and June 30, 2021, the interest rate caps and interest rate swaps2022, our derivative instruments are in a net asset position, and classified as Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy, based on prices quoted for similar financial instruments in markets that are not active. The fair values are presented gross within other assets and offsetting collateral received byRefer to Note 13.

Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis using Significant Unobservable Inputs (Level 3)

We evaluate our financial assets and liabilities subject to fair value measurements on a recurring basis to determine the appropriate level at which to classify them each reporting period. Since our servicing assets and liabilities, performance fee liability, securitization notes and residual trust certificates, contingent consideration, and profit share liability do not trade in an active market with readily observable prices, we use significant unobservable inputs to measure fair value. This determination requires significant judgments to be made.

Servicing Assets and Liabilities

We sold loans with an unpaid balance of $2,042.5 million$1.7 billion and $5,647.5 million$5.8 billion for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2022,2023, respectively, and $756.7 million$2.0 billion and $2,013.2 million$5.6 billion for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2021,2022, respectively, for which we retained servicing rights.

As of March 31, 20222023 and June 30, 2021,2022, we serviced loans which we sold with a remaining unpaid principal balance of $4,036.4 million$4.2 billion and $2,453.9 million,$4.5 billion, respectively.

We use discounted cash flow models to arrive at an estimate of fair value. Significant assumptions used in the valuation of our servicing rights are as follows:

Adequate Compensation

We estimate adequate compensation as the rate a willing market participant would require for servicing loans with similar characteristics as those in the serviced portfolio. 

Discount Rate

Estimated future payments to be received under servicing agreements are discounted as a part of determining the fair value of the servicing rights. For servicing rights on loans, the discount rate reflects the time value of money and a risk premium intended to reflect the amount of compensation market participants would require.

Net Default Rate

We estimate the timing and probability of early loan payoffs, loan defaults and write-offs, thus affecting the projected unpaid principal balance and expected term of the loan, which are used to project future servicing revenue and expenses.

We earned $23.5$21.4 million and $44.2$64.3 million of servicing income for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2022,2023, respectively, and $8.0$23.5 million and $17.2$44.2 million for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2021,2022, respectively.

As of March 31, 20222023 and June 30, 2021,2022, the aggregate fair value of the servicing assets was measured at $4.6$0.8 million and $2.3$1.2 million, respectively, and presented within other assets on the interim condensed consolidated balance sheets. As of March 31, 20222023 and June 30, 2021,2022, the aggregate fair value of the servicing liabilities was measured at $5.6$3.7 million and $4.0$2.7 million, respectively, and presented within accrued expenses and other liabilities on the interim condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Performance Fee Liability

In accordance with our agreements with our originating bank partners, we pay a fee for each loan that is fully repaid by the consumer, due at the end of the period in which the loan is fully repaid. We recognize a liability upon the purchase of a loan for the expected future payment of the performance fee. This liability is measured using a discounted cash flow model and recorded at fair value and presented within accrued expenses and other liabilities on the interim condensed consolidated balance sheets. Any changes in the fair value of the liability are reflected in other (expense) income, net, on the interim condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.

Contingent Consideration

Our acquisition of PayBright, Inc. (“PayBright”) on January 1, 2021 included consideration transferred and 2,587,362 shares of our common stock held in escrow, contingentcontingent upon the achievement of future milestones. WeAt the acquisition date, we classified the contingent consideration as a liability. The acquisition dateliability and estimated its fair value of the contingent consideration liability was estimated using a Monte Carlo simulation in which the fair value is equal to the estimated numberutilizing assumptions of shares to be released from escrow, which are determined based on simulated revenue, multiplied by the simulated share price, discounted at the risk-freeequity volatility, and a discount rate. The liability is remeasured to its fair value at each reporting date, utilizing a Monte Carlo simulation for periods in which actual revenues are unknown, until the contingency is resolved. resolved. During the year ended June 30, 2022, one of these milestones was achieved and 1,293,681 shares of our Class A common stock were released from escrow, resulting in a reduction to the contingent liability. During the nine months ended March 31, 2023, an additional milestone was achieved and the fair value was estimated based on the shares expected to be released from escrow multiplied by the estimated share price. The fair value estimate represents a Level 3 measurement, as the revenue milestone represents a significant unobservable input. The change in fair value of the contingent consideration at each reporting date is recognized as a component of other (expense) income, net in the interim condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss for the respective period.

The Kite acquisition included $9.0 million of cash held in escrow, the release of which is determined based on employee retention. The acquisition date fair value of the contingent consideration was estimated using a probability-weighted approach in which the likelihoods of potential employee retention outcomes were applied to the respective payout amounts and discounted to present value. The contingent consideration asset is remeasured to fair value at each reporting date based on the remaining amount held in escrow, passage of time, and any changes in expectations regarding employee retention outcomes until the contingency is resolved. The change in fair value of the contingent consideration asset at each reporting date is recognized as a component of other (expense) income, net in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss for the respective period. During the three months ended March 31, 2022, the contingency was resolved and the fair value of the contingent consideration asset was reduced to zero. For the three and nine months ended March 31, 2022, the change in fair value of the contingent consideration asset was not material.

Profit Share Liability

During the fiscal year ended June 30,On January 1, 2021, we entered into a commercial agreement with an enterprise partner, in which we are obligated to share in the profitability of transactions facilitated by our platform. Upon capture of a loan under this program, we record a liability associated with the estimated future profit to be shared over the life of the loan based on estimated program profitability levels. This liability is measured using a discounted cash flow model and recorded at fair value and presented within accrued expenses and other liabilities on the interim condensed consolidated balance sheets.

The following table summarizes the activity related to the fair value of the profit share liability during the three and nine months ended March 31, 2022 (in thousands):

14.   Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock and15.   Stockholders’ Equity

Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock

In September 2020, we issued 21,836,687 shares of Series G redeemable convertible preferred stock at $19.93 per share for an aggregate purchase amount of $434.9 million. These shares had a liquidation preference of $435.1 million. As part of this equity financing round, the convertible notes converted into 4,444,321 shares of Series G-1 redeemable convertible preferred stock. These shares had a liquidation preference of $75.3 million prior to conversion.

On January 12, 2021, prior to our IPO, all outstanding shares of redeemable convertible preferred stock were converted into shares of our common stock on a one-to-one basis and their carrying value of $1,327.3 million was reclassified into stockholders' deficit. Following this conversion, we amended and restated our certificate of incorporation to effect a reclassification of each share of our outstanding common stock into ½ share of Class A common stock and ½ share of Class B common stock, with cash paid for fractional shares. As of March 31, 2022 and June 30, 2021, there were no shares of redeemable convertible preferred stock issued and outstanding.

Common Stock

The Company had shares of common stock reserved for issuance as follows:

The common stock is not redeemable. We have two classes of common stock: Class A common stock and Class B common stock. Each holder of Class A common stock has the right to 1one vote per share of common stock. Each holder of Class B common stock has the right to 15 votes and can be converted at any time into one share of Class A common stock. Holders of Class A and Class B common stock are entitled to notice of any stockholders’ meeting in accordance with the bylaws of the corporation, and are entitled to vote upon such matters and in such manner as may be provided by law. Subject to the prior rights of holders of all classes of stock at the time outstanding having prior rights as to dividends, the holders of the common stock are entitled to receive, when and as declared by the Board of Directors, out of any assets of the corporation legally available therefore, such dividends as may be declared from time to time by the Board of Directors.

Common Stock Warrants

Common stock warrants are included as a component of additional paid in capital within the interim condensed consolidated balance sheets.

In November 2021, we granted warrants to purchase 22,000,000 shares of common stock in connection with aour commercial agreementagreements with Amazon. 7,000,000 of the warrant shares have an exercise price of $0.01 per share and a term of 3.5 years, while the remaining 15,000,000 warrant shares have an exercise price of $100 per share and a term of 7.5 years. We valued the warrants at the grant date using the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model with the following assumptions: a dividend yield of zero; years to maturity of 3.5 and 7.5 years, respectively; volatility of 45%; and a risk-free rate of 0.93% and 1.47%, respectively. In connectionWe recognized an asset of $133.5 million associated with the portion of thesethe warrants that were fully vested upon execution, we recognized a commercial agreement asset of $133.5 million as of December 31, 2021.at the grant date. Refer to Note 6. Balance Sheet Components for more information on the asset and related amortization during the period. The remaining grant-date fair value of the warrants will be recognized within our interim condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss as a component of sales and marketing expense as the warrants vest, based upon Amazon’s satisfaction of the vesting conditions. During the three and nine months ended March 31, 2023, a total of $104.1 million and $361.8 million, respectively, was recognized within sales and marketing expense which included $10.2 million and $31.1 million, respectively, in amortization expense of the commercial agreement asset and $93.9 million and $330.7 million, respectively, in expense based upon the grant-date fair value of the warrant shares that vested.

accrued expenses and other liabilities on the interim condensed consolidated balance sheets. As of March 31, 2022, the early exercise liability totaled $0.5 million.

Value Creation Award

In November 2020, in connection with an overall review of the compensation of Max Levchin, our Chief Executive Officer, in advance of the IPO, and taking into account Mr. Levchin’s leadership since the inception of the Company, the comparatively modest level of cash compensation he had received from the Company during his many years of service, and that he did not hold any unvested equity awards, the Company'sCompanys Board of Directors approved a long-term, multi-year performance-based stock option grant providing Mr. Levchin with the opportunity to earn the right to purchase up to 12,500,000 shares of the Company'sCompanys Class A common stock (the “Value Creation Award”). We recognize stock-based compensation on these awards based on the grant date fair value using an accelerated attribution method over the requisite service period, and only if performance-based conditions are considered probable of being satisfied. During the three and nine months ended March 31, 2022,2023, we incurred stock-based compensation expense of $29.0$20.3 million and $113.5$75.2 million, respectively, associated with the Value Creation Award as a component of general and administrative expense within the interim condensed consolidated statements

of operations and comprehensive loss. For both the three and nine months endingended March 31, 2021,2022, we incurred stock-based compensation expense of $38.5 million.$29.0 million and $113.5 million, respectively.

As of March 31, 2022,2023, unrecognized compensation expense related to the Value Creation Award was approximately $120.5 million. The period over$132.2 million, which such compensation expense willis expected to be recognized is approximately 3.8over a remaining weighted-average period of 2.8 years.

Restricted Stock Units

RSUs granted prior to the IPO were subject to 2two vesting conditions: a service-based vesting condition (i.e., employment over a period of time) and a performance-based vesting condition (i.e., a liquidity event in the form of either a change of control or an initial public offering, each as defined in the Plan), both of which must be met in order to vest. The performance-based condition was met upon the IPO. We record stock-based compensation expense for those RSUs on an accelerated attribution method over the requisite service period, which is generally four years.

RSUs granted after IPO are subject to a service-based vesting condition. We record stock-based compensation expense for service-based RSUs on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period, which is generally one to four years.

During the nine months ended March 31, 2022, we awarded 8,530,480 RSUs to certain employees under the Plan.

2020 Employee Stock Purchase Plan

On November 18, 2020, our Board of Directors adopted and approved the 2020 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (“ESPP”). The purpose of the ESPP is to secure the services of new employees, to retain the services of existing employees and to provide incentives for such individuals to exert maximum effort towards the success of the Company and that of its affiliates. A total of 9.111.3 million shares of Class A common stock wereare reserved and available for issuance under the ESPP and 649,580 shares have been issued as of March 31, 2022.2023. The ESPP provides for six-month offering periods beginning December 1 and June 1 of each year. The firstyear, with the initial six-month offering period began onbeginning December 1, 2021. At the end of each offering period, shares of our Class A common stock are purchased on behalf of each ESPP participant at a price per share equal to 85% of the lesser of (1) the fair market value of the Class A common stock on first day of the offering period (the grant date) or (2) the fair market value of the Class A common stock on the on the last day of the offering period (the purchase date). We use the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model to measure the fair value of the purchase rights issued under the ESPP.ESPP at the first day of the offering period, which represents the grant date. We record stock-based compensation expense on a straight-line basis over each six-month offering period, the requisite service period of the award.

In connection with the acquisition of Returnly on May 1, 2021, we issued 304,364 shares of our Class A common stock, which are held in escrow. Because the future payment of the escrowed shares is contingent on continued employment of certain employees, the arrangement represents stock-based compensation in the post combination period. The grant-date fair value was estimated based on the value of the shares at the date of closing. The escrowed shares have a requisite service period of two years and contain a performance-based vesting condition (i.e., the achievement of certain revenue targets). We record stock-based compensation expense on a straight-line basis for each tranche over the requisite service period, as long as the performance-based conditions are considered probable of being satisfied. During the nine months ended March 31, 2023, the arrangement was modified, resulting in the release of 45,459 shares from escrow and the remittance of 243,384 shares back to the Company. The modification resulted in the recognition of $2.0 million of incremental compensation cost within general and administrative expenses in our interim condensed statement of operations. As of March 31, 2023, 15,521 shares remain in escrow.

On February 8, 2023, we committed to a restructuring plan (the “Plan”) designed to manage our operating expenses in response to current macroeconomic conditions and ongoing business prioritization efforts. As part of the revenue targets at each plan, we reduced our workforce by approximately 500 employees, representing approximately 19% of our employees and incurred lease exit
costs related to vacating a portion of our San Francisco office. Restructuring charges, net consists of employee severance pay and related costs and accelerations of amortization expense for the lease asset associated with the exit of certain of our office space.
For the three and nine months ended March 31, 2023, restructuring charges, net was comprised of the following (in thousands):

16.18.   Income Taxes

The quarterly provision for income taxes is based on the current estimate of the annual effective income tax rate and the tax effect of discrete items occurring during the quarter. The Company’s quarterly provision and the estimate of the annual effective tax rate are subject to significant variation due to several factors, including variability in the pre-tax jurisdictional mix of earnings and the impact of discrete items.

For the three and nine months ended March 31, 2023, we recorded income tax expense (benefit) of $(0.8) million and $(2.6) million, respectively, which was primarily attributable to the effects of foreign income taxes on our Canadian subsidiary and partially offset by various U.S state and other foreign income taxes, as well as the tax amortization of certain intangibles. For the three and nine months ended March 31, 2022, we recorded income tax expense (benefit) of $0.3 million and $0.7 million, respectively, which was primarily attributable to various U.SU.S. state and foreign income taxes and the tax amortization of certain intangibles. For three and nine months ended March 31, 2021, we recorded
56

Table of Contents
income tax expense (benefit) of $(0.1) million and $0.1 million, respectively, which was primarily attributable to the effects of foreign income taxes and various U.S. state income taxes.

As of March 31, 2022,2023, we continue to recognize a full valuation allowance against our U.S. federal and state as well as the majority of our foreign net deferred tax assets. This determination was based on the assessment of the available positive and negative evidence to estimate whether sufficient future taxable income will be generated to utilize the existing deferred tax assets. A significant piece of objective negative evidence evaluated was the cumulative loss incurred by the Company for the prior three fiscal years. The presence of a three-year cumulative loss limits the ability to consider other subjective evidence, such as our expectations of future taxable income and projections for growth.

As a result of the integration and consolidation of our PayBright business into and with Affirm’s Canadian business and the expansion of our overall business in Canada, as well as other objectively verifiable positive evidence, all of which we have concluded is sufficient to outweigh the existing negative evidence – including the presence of a three-year cumulative loss attributable to the related foreign jurisdiction, we have determined that it is more likely than not that our Canadian deferred tax assets will be realized and a valuation allowance is not required.

On August 16, 2022, the Inflation Reduction Act was enacted into U.S. federal law. The Company does not currently expect that the Inflation Reduction Act will have a material impact on its income taxes.

19.   Net Loss per Share Attributable to Common Stockholders

On January 12, 2021, we amended and restated our certificate of incorporation to effect a reclassification of each share of our outstanding common stock into ½ share of Class A common stock and ½ share of Class B common stock, with cash paid for fractional shares. Therefore, we have two classes of common stock: Class A common stock and Class B common stock. The rights, including the dividends and distributions, of the holders of our Class A and Class B common stock are identical, except with respect to voting. Additionally, the conversion of all outstanding shares of redeemable convertible preferred stock into shares of our common stock occurred immediately prior to the reclassification.

The following tables presenttable presents basic and diluted net loss per share attributable to common stockholders for Class A and Class B common stock (in thousands, except share and per share data):

Item 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the interim condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (“Form 10-Q”) and our audited consolidated financial statements and the related notes and the discussion under the heading “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” for the fiscal year ended June 30, 20212022 included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K (our “Annual Report”).10-K. Some of the information contained in this discussion and analysis, including information with respect to our planned investments to drive future growth, includes forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. You should review the sections titled “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” and “Risk Factors” of this Form 10-Q and our most recently filed Annual Report on Form 10-K for a discussion of forward-looking statements and important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the results described in or implied by the forward-looking statements contained in the following discussion and analysis.

Overview

We are building the next generation platform for digital and mobile-first commerce. We believe that by using modern technology, the very best engineering talent, and a mission-driven approach, we can reinvent payments and commerce. Our solutions, which are built on trust and transparency, make it easier for consumers to spend responsibly and with confidence, easier for merchants to convert sales and grow, and easier for commerce to thrive.
Our point-of-sale solutions allow consumers to pay for purchases in fixed amounts without deferred interest, hiddenlate fees, or penalties. We empower consumers to pay over time rather than paying for a purchase entirely upfront. This increases consumers’ purchasing power and gives them more control and flexibility. Our platform facilitates both true 0% APR payment options and interest-bearing loans. On the merchant side, we offer commerce enablement, demand generation, and customer acquisition tools. Our solutions empower merchants to more efficiently promote and sell their products, optimize their customer acquisition strategies, and drive incremental sales. We also provide valuable product-level data and insights — information that merchants cannot easily get elsewhere — to better inform their strategies. Finally, our consumer app unlocks the full suite of Affirm products for a delightful end-to-end consumer experience. Consumers can use our app to manage payments, open a high-yield savings account, and access a personalized marketplace.
Our company is predicated on the principles of simplicity, transparency, and putting people first. By adhering to these principles, we have built enduring, trust-based relationships with consumers and merchants that we believe will set us up for long-term, sustainable success. We believe our innovative approach uniquely positions us to define the future of commerce and payments.
Technology and data are at the core of everything we do. Our expertise in sourcing, aggregating, and analyzing data has been what we believe to be the key competitive advantage of our platform since our founding. We believe our proprietary technology platform and data give us a unique advantage in pricing risk. We use data to inform our risk scoring in order to generate value for our consumers, merchants, and capital partners. We collect and store petabytes of information that we carefully structure and use to regularly recalibrate and revalidate our models, thereby getting to risk scoring and pricing faster, more efficiently, and with a higher degree of confidence. We also prioritize building our own technology and investing in product and engineering talent as we believe these are enduring competitive advantages that are difficult to replicate. Our solutions use the latest in machine learning, artificial intelligence, cloud-based technologies, and other modern tools to create differentiated and scalable products.
We have achieved significant growth in recent periods. Our total revenue, net was approximately $354.8 million and $985.2 million for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2022, respectively, and $230.7
6056

million and $608.7 million for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2021, respectively. We incurred net losses of $54.7 million and $521.0 million for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2022, respectively, and $287.1 million and $317.6 million for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2021, respectively.
The combination of our differentiated product offerings, efficient go-to-market strategy, and strong monetization engine has resulted in fast growth.
Rapid GMV growth.  We grew our Gross Merchandise Volume (“GMV”) by approximately 73% period-over-period to $3.9 billion during the three months ended March 31, 2022 from $2.3 billion during the three months ended March 31, 2021. During the nine months ended March 31, 2022, GMV was $11.1 billion, which represented 91% growth over the nine months ended March 31, 2021.
Increased consumer engagement.  The number of active consumers on our platform grew by 7.4 million consumers from March 31, 2021 to March 31, 2022, an increase of 137%, to a total of 12.7 million.
Expanded merchant network.  We have also continued to scale the breadth and reach of our platform. From March 31, 2021 to March 31, 2022, our merchant base expanded from 11,513 to 207,049 active merchants due primarily to continued expansion to merchants related to the Shopify partnership.
Our business is designed to scale efficiently. Our partnerships with banks and other funding relationships have allowed us to remain equity capital efficient. Since July 1, 2016, we have processed approximately $28.6 billion of GMV on our platform. As of March 31, 2022, we had over $9.0 billion in funding capacity from a diverse set of capital partners, including through our warehouse facilities, securitization trusts, and forward flow arrangements, an increase of $2.5 billion from $6.5 billion as of June 30, 2021.
Through the diversity of these funding relationships, the equity capital required to build our total platform portfolio has declined from approximately 4% of the total platform portfolio as of June 30, 2021, to approximately 2% as of March 31, 2022. This metric measures the equity intensity of our business or the amount of capital used in relation to the scale of our enterprise. We define our total platform portfolio as the unpaid principal balance outstanding of all loans facilitated through our platform as of the balance sheet date, including both those loans held for investment and those loans owned by third-parties. This amount totaled $6.7 billion and $4.7 billion as of March 31, 2022 and June 30, 2021, respectively. Additionally, we define the equity capital required as the balance of loans held for investment plus loans held for sale less funding debt and notes issued by securitization trusts, per our interim condensed consolidated balance sheet. This amount totaled $157.7 million and $178.1 million as of March 31, 2022 and June 30, 2021, respectively. Equity capital required as a percent of the last twelve months’ GMV was 1% and 2% as of March 31, 2022 and June 30, 2021, respectively.
We believe that our continued success will depend on many factors, including our ability to attract additional merchant partners, retain our existing merchant partners, and grow and develop our relationships with new and existing merchant partners, help our merchants grow their revenue on our platform, and develop new innovative solutions to establish the ubiquity of our network and breadth of our platform. For a further discussion of trends, uncertainties and other factors that could impact our operating results, see the section entitled “Risk Factors” in Item 1A, which is incorporated herein by reference.

Our Financial Model

Our Revenue Model
From merchants, we earn a fee when we help them convert a sale and facilitate a transaction.We have two loan product offerings: Pay-in-4 and Core loans. Pay-in-4 is a short-term payment plan with four biweekly 0% APR installments, while Core loans include all interest bearing installment loans and 0% APR monthly installment loans. While merchant fees depend on the individual arrangement between us and each merchant and vary based on the terms of the product offering, we generally earn larger merchant fees on 0% APR financing products. For boththe three and nine months ended March 31, 2023, Pay-in-4 represented 16% and 19% of total GMV facilitated through our platform, respectively, while 0% APR Core loans represented 15% and 14%, respectively. For the three and nine months ended March 31, 2022, 0% APR financingPay-in-4 represented 43%18% and 17% of total GMV facilitated through our platform. For the three and nine months ended March 31, 2021,platform, respectively, while 0% APR financingCore loans represented 43%24% and 45%26%, respectively, of total GMV facilitated through our platform.respectively.
From consumers, we earn interest income on the simple interest loans that we originate or purchase from our originating bank partners. Interest rates charged to our consumers vary depending on the transaction risk, creditworthiness of the consumer, the repayment term selected by the consumer, the amount of the loan, and the individual arrangement with a merchant. Because our consumers are never charged deferred or compounding interest, late fees, or penalties on the loans, we are not incentivized to profit from our consumers’ hardships. In addition, interest income includes the amortization of any discounts or premiums on loan receivables created upon either the purchase of a loan from one of our originating bank partners or the origination of a loan.
In order to accelerate our ubiquity, we facilitate the issuance of virtual cards directly to consumers through our app, allowing them to shop with merchants that may not yet be fully integrated with Affirm. When these virtual cards are used over established card networks, we earn a portion of the interchange fee from the transaction.
Our Loan Origination and Servicing Model
When a consumer applies for a loan through our platform, the loan is underwritten using our proprietary risk model. Once approved for the loan, the consumer then selects his/hertheir preferred repayment option. The substantial majorityA portion of these loans are funded and issued by our originating bank partners.
A substantial majority of the loans facilitated through our platform are originated through our originating bank partners: Cross River Bank, an FDIC-insured New Jersey state-chartered bank, and Celtic Bank, an FDIC-insured Utah state-chartered industrial bank. These partnerships allow us to benefit from our partners’ ability to originate loans under their banking licenses while complying with various federal, state, and other laws. Under this arrangement, we must comply with our originating bank partners' credit policies and underwriting procedures, and our originating bank partners maintain ultimate authority to decide whether to originate a loan or not. When an originating bank partner originates a loan, it funds the loan through its own funding sources and may subsequently offer and sell the loan to us. Pursuant to our agreements with these partners, we are obligated to purchase the loans facilitated through our platform that oursuch partner offers us and our

Table of Contents
obligation is secured by cash deposits. To date, we have purchased all of the loans facilitated through our platform and originated by our originating bank partners. When we purchase a loan from an originating bank partner, the purchase price is equal to the outstanding principal balance of the loan, plus a fee and any accrued interest. The originating bank partner also retains an interest in the loans purchased by us through a loan performance fee that is payable by us on the aggregate principal amount of a loan that is paid by a consumer. See Note 13.14. Fair Value of Financial Assets and Liabilities for more information on the performance fee liability.
We are also able to originate loans directly under our lending, servicing, and brokering licenses in Canada and across various states in the U.S. through our consolidated subsidiaries. For the three and nine months ended March 31, 2022,2023, we originated approximately $216.0$187.9 million, or 4%, and $645.7$618.3 million, or 4%, respectively, of loans in Canada respectively, compared to approximately $103.4$216.0 million, or 6%, and $164.7$645.7 million, for 6%, of loans for the three and ninemonths ended March 31, 2021, respectively. 2022, respectively. For the three and nine months ended March 31, 2022,2023, we directly originated $659.7$690.8 million, or 15%, and $1,774.4$2,203.1 million, or 15%, respectively, of loans in the U.S. pursuant to our state licenses, compared to approximately $108.1$659.7 million, or 17%, and $180.7$1,774.4 million, for the three and ninemonths ended March 31, 2021, respectively. For both16%, of loans for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2022, we self-originated 22% of total loans through our state and other licenses, compared to 9% and 6% for the three and ninemonths ended March 31, 2021, respectively.

To allow for flexible staffing to support overflow and seasonal traffic, we partner with several sub-servicers to manage customer care, first priority collections, and third-party collections in accordance with our policies and procedures.
Factors Affecting Our Performance
Our performance has been and may continue to be affected by many factors, including those identified below, as well as the factors discussed in the section titled “Risk Factors” in this Form 10-Q, our Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2022, and in our most recently filed Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2022.
Expanding our Network, Diversity, and Mix of Funding SourcesRelationships
WeOur capital efficient funding model is integral to the success of our platform. As we scale the number of transactions on our network and grow GMV, we maintain a capital-efficient model through a diverse setvariety of funding sources. When we originate a loan directly or purchase a loan originated byrelationships in order to support our originating bank partners, we often utilizenetwork. Our diversified funding relationships include warehouse facilities, with certain lenders to finance our lending activities or loan purchases. We sell the loans we originate or purchase from our originating bank partners to whole loan buyers and securitization investors throughtrusts, forward flow arrangements, and securitizationpartnerships with banks. Given the short duration and strong performance of our assets, funding can be recycled quickly, resulting in a high-velocity, capital efficient funding model. While we have continued to improve our equity capital efficiency, the percentage of our equity capital required as a percent of the last twelve months’ GMV increased from approximately 1% as of June 30, 2022, to approximately 2% as of March 31, 2023. The increase is due to an increase in on-balance sheet loans, and a lower percentage of our on balance sheet loans funded through securitizations, which generally require a lower percentage of equity capital compared to our warehouse credit facilities. We have elected this shift in our funding mix in response to the current market environment given our ability to allocate loans to warehouse facilities with better economic terms at a given time to support the growth of our business while optimizing cost of funds. The mix of on-balance sheet and off-balance sheet funding is a function of how we choose to allocate loan volume, which is determined by the economic arrangements and supply of capital available to us, both of which may also impact our results in any given period.
Mix of Business on Our Platform
The shifts in volume among merchants and the mix of products that our merchants offer and our consumers purchase in any period affects our operating results. These mix impacts affect GMV, revenue, our financial results, and our key operating metric performance for that period. Differences in product mix relate to different loan durations, APR mix, and varying proportion of 0% APR versus interest-bearing financings.

Table of Contents
Product and economic terms of commercial agreements vary among our merchants. For example, our low average order value (“AOV”) products generally benefit from shorter duration, but also have lower revenue as a percentage of GMV when compared to high AOV products. Merchant mix shifts are driven in part by the products offered by the merchant, the economic terms negotiated with the merchant, merchant-side activity relating to the marketing of their products, whether the merchant is fully integrated within our network, and general economic conditions affecting consumer demand. Our revenue as a percentage of GMV in any given period varies across products. As such, as we continue to expand our network to include more merchants, revenue as a percentage of GMV will vary. In addition, our commercial agreement with Shopify to offer Shop Pay Installments powered by Affirm and our Pay-in-4 offering will continue to impact the mix of our shorter duration, low AOV products. Differences in the mix of high versus low AOV will also impact our results. For example, we expect that transactions per active consumer may increase while revenue as a percentage of GMV may decline in the medium term to the extent that a greater portion of our GMV comes from Pay-in-4and earn servicingother low-AOV offerings.
Seasonality
We experience seasonal fluctuations in our revenue as a result of consumer spending patterns. Historically, our revenue has been the strongest during the second quarter of our fiscal year due to increases in retail commerce during the holiday season. Adverse events that occur during these months could have a disproportionate effect on our financial results for the fiscal year.
Macroeconomic Environment
We regularly monitor the direct and indirect impacts of the current macroeconomic conditions on our business, financial condition, and results of operations. During fiscal 2023, the macroeconomic environment has presented a number of challenges to our business. In response to continued inflationary pressure, the U.S. Federal Reserve has raised, and may continue to raise, the federal funds interest rate. Simultaneously, economic uncertainty and the prospect of economic recession has impacted consumer spending. These developments have affected, and may continue to affect, our business and results of operations in the following ways:

Deceleration in consumer demand: We have experienced a deceleration in consumer demand for discretionary items, which has adversely impacted GMV growth.

Increased borrowing costs: Our costs of borrowing have increased, resulting in higher transaction costs.

Volatile capital markets: In response to volatile capital markets conditions, we have retained more loans on our balance sheet funded through our consolidated securitizations and warehouse lines in recent fiscal quarters. Retaining loans on our balance sheet effectively delays the recognition of revenue associated with those loans.

Managing delinquency rates: We are continuously optimizing our underwriting to manage delinquency rates. While these actions have adversely affected our GMV growth rates during fiscal 2023, for the quarter ended March 31, 2023, our 30-day delinquency rates for monthly installment loans were comparable to, and our allowance rates for loan losses improved over, those experienced during the quarter ended March 31, 2022.

Macroeconomic factors can also cause fluctuations of available capital in our lending marketplace due to shifts in the risk preferences of our lending partners and institutional investors or for other reasons. For example, since the beginning of March 2023, there have been public reports of instability at certain financial institutions. Despite the steps taken to date by U.S. and foreign agencies and institutions, the follow-on effects of this instability are unknown and may lead to disruptions to the businesses and operations of our funding sources.

Restructuring Plan

On February 8, 2023, we committed to a restructuring plan designed to manage our operating expenses in response to macroeconomic conditions and ongoing business prioritization efforts. As part of the plan, we reduced our workforce by approximately 500 employees, representing approximately 19% of our employees at that time, and vacated a portion of our leased San Francisco office. The implementation of the restructuring plan is now substantially complete. For further information, refer to Note 17. Restructuring charges, net to the interim condensed consolidated financial statements in this Form 10-Q.

Pricing Initiatives
We have begun implementing certain pricing initiatives that have the dual purpose of offsetting our increased funding costs while also enabling us to responsibly extend access to credit to a larger number of consumers. These pricing initiatives include the following:

increasing the maximum APR for loans facilitated on our platform from 30% to 36%;

increasing the merchant fees payable by some merchants on 0% APR financing products;

expanding the use of down payments and fine-tuning the requested amounts;

offering merchant-subsidized low APR loans (4-9.99%) as an alternative to monthly 0% APR programs; and
shortening loan lengths and minimum order sizes for monthly 0% APR programs.

Regulatory Developments

We are subject to the regulatory and enforcement authority of the Consumer Financial Protection Board (the “CFPB”) as a facilitator, servicer, acquirer or originator of consumer credit. In December 2021, the CFPB issued a Request for Information to five of the largest BNPL providers, including us, requesting information by March 1, 2022. We timely complied with that request but expect to receive additional CFPB requests for information from continuingtime to act astime in the servicerfuture.

In September 2022, the CFPB published a report on the loans.“buy now, pay later” (“BNPL”) industry. At the time that report was published, the CFPB indicated that it may seek to subject BNPL companies to supervisory examinations. In March 2023, certain members of the U.S. Senate wrote to the director of the CFPB encouraging the CFPB to “move quickly towards bringing the largest [BNPL] lenders under Federal Supervision….” In addition, based on our own communications with the CFPB, we expect the CFPB to begin to supervise companies in the BNPL industry, including, in the foreseeable future, us.
Key Operating Metrics

We collect and analyzefocus on several key operating and financial datametrics to measure the performance of our business to assess our performance, formulate financial projections, and makehelp determine strategic decisions.direction. In addition to revenue, net (loss) income,loss, and other results under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”),GAAP, the following tables set forth key operating metrics we use to evaluate our business.

GMV
We measure gross merchandise volumeGMV to assess the volume of transactions that take place on our platform. We define GMV as the total dollar amount of all transactions on the Affirmour platform during the applicable period, net of refunds. GMV does not represent revenue earned by us. However, the GMV processed through our platformus, however, it is an indicator of the success of our merchants and the strength of our platform.
For the three and nine months ended March 31, 2022,2023, GMV was $3.9$4.6 billion and $14.7 billion, respectively, which representedrepresents an increase of approximately 73%18% and 32%, respectively, as compared to $2.3 billionthe same periods in fiscal 2022. Overall, the increase in GMV in both periods was primarily driven by the expansion of our active merchant base and increases in active consumers and average transactions per consumer. The increase in GMV for the three months ended March 31, 2021. For the nine months ended March 31, 2022,2023 also reflects increased consumer demand at our largest merchant partner by GMV, was $11.1 billion, which represents anAmazon, and increased consumer demand in our travel and ticketing category. The increase of approximately 91% as compared to $5.8 billionin GMV for the nine months ended March 31, 2021.2023 was positively impacted by Affirm being an available payment option to Amazon consumers throughout fiscal 2023, while Affirm was a payment option to Amazon consumers only during a portion of fiscal 2022.

For the three and nine months ended March 31, 2023, our top five merchants and platform partners represented approximately 40% and 42%, respectively, of total GMV, as compared to 34% and 33%, respectively, for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2022. GMV attributable to Amazon increased during both the three and nine months ended March 31, 2023 as compared to the same periods in fiscal 2022 but represented less than 20% of total GMV for all such periods.

Active Consumers
We assess consumer adoption and engagement by the number of active consumers across our platform. Active consumers are the primary measure of the size of our network. We define an active consumer as a consumer who engages in at least one transaction on our platform during the 12 months prior to the measurement date.
As of March 31, 2022,2023, we had 12.716.0 million active consumers, representing an increase of approximately 79%26% compared to 7.1 million as of June 30, 2021, and approximately 137% compared to 5.412.7 million as of March 31, 2021.

Table2022 reflecting the continued growth of Contentsour network.
Transactions per Active Consumer
We believe the value of our network is amplified with greater consumer engagement and repeat usage, highlighted by increased transactions per active consumer. Transactions per active consumer is defined as the average number of transactions that an active consumer has conducted on our platform during the 12 months prior to the measurement date.
As of March 31, 2022,2023, we had approximately 2.73.6 transactions per active consumer, an increase of approximately 19%34% compared to both June 30, 2021 and March 31, 2021. Transactions per active consumer includes incremental transactions completed by active consumers on the PayBright and Returnly platforms during the twelve months prior to the measurement date and prior to the acquisitions of PayBright and Returnly by Affirm.
Factors Affecting Our Performance
Expanding our Network, Diversity, and Mix of Funding Relationships
Our capital efficient funding model is integral to the success of our platform. As we scale the number of transactions on our network and grow GMV, we maintain a variety of funding relationships in order to support our network. Our diversified funding relationships include warehouse facilities, securitization trusts, forward flow arrangements, and partnerships with banks. Given the short duration and strong performance of our assets, funding can be recycled quickly, resulting in a high-velocity, capital efficient funding model. We have continued to reduce the percentage of our equity capital required to fund our total platform portfolio from approximately 4% as of June 30, 2021, to approximately 2% as of March 31, 2022. The mix of on-balance sheet and off-balance sheet funding is a function of both how we choose to allocate loan volume and the available supply of capital, both of which may also impact our results in any given period.
Mix of Business on Our Platform
The mix of products that our merchants offer and our consumers purchase in any period affects our operating results. In addition, shifts in volume among merchants in any period also affects our operating results. These mix impacts affect GMV, revenue, our financial results, and our key operating metric performance for that period. Differences in product mix relate to different loan durations, APR mix, and varying proportion of 0% APR versus interest-bearing financings.
Differences in merchant mix relate to the variations in the product and economic terms of the commercial agreements among our merchants. For example, our low average order value (“AOV”) products generally benefit from shorter duration, but also have lower revenue as a percentage of GMV when compared to high AOV products. Merchant mix shifts are driven in part by the products offered by the merchant, the economic terms negotiated with the merchant, merchant-side activity relating to the marketing of their products, whether the merchant is fully integrated within our network, and general economic conditions affecting consumer demand. Our revenue as a percentage of GMV in any given period varies across products. As such, as we continue to expand our network to include more merchants, revenue as a percentage of GMV will vary. In addition, our commercial agreement with Shopify to offer Shop Pay Installments powered by Affirm and our recent Split Pay offering, a short-term payment plan with 0% APR, will continue to increase the mix of our shorter duration, low AOV products. Differences in the mix of high versus low AOV will also impact our results. For example, we expect that transactions per active consumer may increase while revenue as a percentage of GMV may decline in the medium term to the extent that a greater portion of our GMV comes from Split Pay and other low-AOV offerings.
Sales and Marketing Investment
We rely on the strength of our merchant relationships and positive user experience to develop our consumer brand and grow the ubiquity of our platform. During the three and nine months ended March 31, 2022, we increased our investment in salesprimarily as a result of platform growth and marketing channels that we believe will drive further brand awareness and preference among both consumers and merchants. Given the nature of our revenue, our investment in sales and marketing in a given period may not impact results until subsequent periods. Additionally, given the increasingly competitivehigher frequency repeat users driven by consumer engagement.

nature of merchant acquisition, we have previously made, and expect that we may make, significant investments in retaining and acquiring new merchants. We are focused on the effectiveness of sales and marketing spending and will continue to be strategic in maintaining efficient consumer and merchant acquisition.
Seasonality
We experience seasonal fluctuations in our revenue as a result of consumer spending patterns. Historically, our revenue has been the strongest during the second quarter of our fiscal year due to increases in retail commerce during the holiday season. Adverse events that occur during these months could have a disproportionate effect on our financial results for the fiscal year.
Impact of COVID-19

The COVID-19 pandemic has had, and continues to have, a significant impact on the U.S. economy and the markets in which we operate. Our positive performance during this period demonstrates the value and effectiveness of our platform, the resiliency of our business model, and the capabilities of our risk management and underwriting approach. As we enter a new phase of the pandemic, our focus will turn to both changing macro-economic conditions and individual consumer spending habits. As we observe new behavior, we will rely on our flexible and robust risk infrastructure to make appropriate decisions for our business.
Diversified Mix of Merchant Partners
We have a diversified set of merchant partners across industries, which allows us to capitalize on industry tailwinds and changing consumer spending behavior, economic conditions, and other factors that may affect a particular type of merchant or industry. For example, following the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, our revenue from merchant partners in the travel, hospitality, and entertainment industries declined significantly, but we saw a significant increase in revenue from merchant partners offering home fitness equipment, home office products, and home furnishings. As we move past the period of extended lock-downs due to COVID-19, we have observed strong changes in consumer preferences. Industries impacted by the lock-down such as travel and hospitality have seen a strong resurgence and have either replaced or offset the spending decreases we experienced in the aforementioned categories.
Dynamic Changes to Risk Model
As part of our risk mitigation platform, we closely track data and trends to measure risk and manage exposure, leveraging our flexibility to quickly adjust and adapt. In response to the macroeconomic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, we initiated a series of refinements to our risk model based on our real-time data observations and analysis. We were able to respond, implement, and test the updates to our model quickly due to the adaptability of our infrastructure, underwriting, and risk management models. This resulted in continued decreases across both charge-offs and delinquencies. As macroeconomic conditions improved, the embedded flexibility of the model allowed our risk tolerances to return closer to pre-pandemic levels while still maintaining low losses. Our proprietary risk model was not designed to take into account the longer-term impacts of social, economic, and financial disruptions caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, and while we continue to make refinements to our risk model as new information becomes available to us, any changes to our risk model may be ineffective and the performance of our risk model may decline.
Resilient Allowance Model
At the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic in March 2020, we factored in updated loss multiples using macroeconomic data to reflect stressed expected loss scenarios emerging from forecasted delinquencies and defaults. This stressing of the model resulted in an increase of the allowance for credit losses as a percentage of loans held for investment to a high of 14.8% as of March 31, 2020. In the months subsequent to this and during fiscal year 2021, we saw stronger than expected repayment history in the portfolio and increased credit quality of loans held on our balance sheet from credit tightening, resulting in a release of the allowance over time. As the economic reopening

Table of Contents
and recovery continues, we believe our allowance model is well equipped to forecast expected loss scenarios resulting from both the shifting product mix of loans on our balance sheet as well as a return to pre-pandemic credit levels over time. The allowance for credit losses as a percentage of loans held for investment increased from 5.8% as of June 30, 2021 to 6.4% as of March 31, 2022 due to a shift in the composition of loans retained on balance sheet. Should macroeconomic factors or expected losses change, we may increase or decrease the allowance for credit losses.

Merchant network revenue
Merchant network revenue is impacted by both GMV and the mix of loans originated on our platform as merchant fees vary based on loan characteristics. In particular, merchant network revenue and/as a percentage of GMV typically increases with longer-term, non interest-bearing loans with higher AOVs, and decreases with shorter-term, interest-bearing loans with lower AOVs.
Merchant network revenue decreased by $2.0 million, or virtual card network revenue. In order to continue to expand our consumer base, we may originate loans under certain merchant arrangements that we do not expect to achieve positive revenue. In these instances, the loss is recorded as sales and marketing expense unless it is determined as recoverable in future periods. During2%, for the three andmonths ended March 31, 2023 compared to the same period in fiscal 2022. The decrease is primarily attributed to a decrease of $274.2 million in long-term non-interest bearing loans, our highest merchant fee category, for the three months ended March 31, 2023. The decrease was partially offset by an increase of $742.8 million in short term interest bearing loans, which typically have lower merchant fees, in line with the decline in merchant network revenue as a percentage of GMV discussed below.

Table of Contents
Merchant network revenue increased by $25.8 million, or 8%, for the nine months ended March 31, 2022, we generated 33% and 35%2023, compared to the same period in fiscal 2022. The increase is primarily attributed to an increase of our revenue from merchant network fees, respectively. During$3.6 billion in GMV for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2021, we generated 43% and 47%2023. The increase in GMV is a result of the expansion of our revenueactive merchant base from 207,049 as of March 31, 2022 to 245,652 as of March 31, 2023, an increase in active consumers from 12.7 million as of March 31, 2022 to 16.0 million as of March 31, 2023, and an increase in average transactions per consumer from 2.7 as of March 31, 2022 to 3.6 as of March 31, 2023. Despite the increase in merchant network fees, respectively.
Virtual Card Network Revenue
A smaller portion of our revenue, comes from our Virtual Card product. We have an agreement with an issuer processor to facilitate transactions through the issuance of virtual debit cards to be used by consumers at checkout. Consumers can apply for a virtual debit card through the Affirm app and, upon approval, receive a single-use virtual debit card to be used for their purchase online or offline at a non-integrated merchant. The virtual debit card is funded at the time a transaction is authorized using cash held by the issuer processor in a reserve fund, which is ultimately funded and maintained by us. We, or our originating bank partner, then originate a loan to the consumer once the transaction is confirmed by the merchant. The non-integrated merchants are charged interchange fees by the issuer processor for virtual debit card transactions, as with all debit card purchases, and the issuer processor shares a portion of thismerchant network revenue with us. We also leverage this issuer processor as a means of integrating certain merchants. Similarly, for these arrangements with integrated merchants, the merchant is charged interchange fees by the issuer processor and the issuer processor shares a portion of this revenue with us. This revenue is recognized as a percentage of both our captured volume transacted onGMV contracted and AOVs decreased during the payment processorperiod. Merchant network and net interchange income, and this revenue is presented netas a percentage of associated processing fees. We generated 7% of our revenue from virtual card network feesGMV was 2% for both the three and nine months ended March 31, 2022, and 6% and 5%2023, down from 3% for the same period in fiscal 2022. AOV was $319 for the nine months ended March 31, 2023, down from $377 for the same period in fiscal 2022. These decreases are the result of our revenue from virtuala higher frequency of consumers choosing Affirm as their payment option with merchants that offer shorter-term, interest-bearing loans with lower AOVs, resulting in lower merchant fees.
Virtual card network feesrevenue

Virtual card network revenue growth is correlated with the growth of GMV processed by our issuer processors. As such, the increase is primarily driven by $1.4 billion and $4.2 billion of GMV processed through our issuer processors, an increase of 22% and 27% for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2023, respectively, as compared to the same period in 2022. This is the result of increased activity on our virtual card-enabled mobile application, as well as growth in existing and new merchants using our virtual card platform, growing from 1,053 merchants as of March 31, 2022 to 1,226 merchants as of March 31, 2023. Virtual card network revenue is also impacted by the mix of merchants as different merchants can have different interchange rates depending on their industry or size, among other factors.

This increase was in part due to recent pricing initiatives including increasing the maximum APR for loans facilitated on our platform from 30% to 36% and introducing merchant-subsidized low APR loans (4-9.99%) as an alternative to monthly 0% APR programs.
Gain on sales of loans
Gain on sales of loans decreased by $19.7 million, or 37%, for the three months ended March 31, 2023 compared to the same period in 2022, primarily due to a decrease in loan sale volume as we retain more loans on balance sheet in response to the current market environment. We sold loans with an unpaid balance of $1.7 billion for the three months ended March 31, 2023 compared to $2.0 billion for the same period in 2022.
Gain on sales of loansincreased by $14.9 million, or 11%, for the nine months ended March 31, 2023, compared to the same period in 2022, mainly driven by increased loan sale activity. We sold loans with an unpaid balance of $5.8 billion for the nine months ended March 31, 2023 compared to $5.6 billion for the same period in 2022. This increase was driven by higher loan sale volume to third-party loan buyers and optimizing the allocation of loans to loan buyers with more favorable pricing terms.

Servicing income
Servicing income includes net servicing fee revenue and fair value adjustments for servicing assets and liabilities, and is recognized for loan portfolios sold to third party loan buyers and for loans held within our off balance sheet securitizations. Servicing fee revenue varies by contractual servicing fee arrangement and is earned as a percentage of the average unpaid principal balance of loans held by each counterparty where we have a servicing agreement. We reduce servicing income for certain fees we are required to pay per our contractual servicing arrangement.
With respect to fair value adjustments, we remeasure the fair value of servicing assets and liabilities each period and recognize the change in fair value in servicing income. We utilize a discounted cash flow approach to remeasure the fair value of servicing rights. Because we earn servicing income based on the outstanding principal balance of the portfolio, fair value adjustments are impacted by the timing and amount of loan repayments. As such, over the term of each loan portfolio sold, fair value adjustments for servicing assets will decrease servicing income and fair value adjustments for servicing liabilities will increase servicing income. We discuss our valuation methodology and significant level 3 inputs for servicing assets and liabilities within Note 14. Fair Value of Financial Assets and Liabilities.
Servicing income decreased by $2.0 million, or 9%, for the three months ended March 31, 2023, compared to the same period in 2022, primarily driven by changes in fair value of servicing assets and liabilities. The decrease related to changes in fair value of servicing assets and liabilities was partially offset by an increase in servicing fee revenue driven by an increase in the average unpaid principal balance of loans owned by third-party loan owners, which increased from $4.0 billion during the three months ended March 31, 2022 to $4.5 billion during the three months ended March 31, 2023.
Servicing income increased by $20.0 million, or 45%, for the nine months ended March 31, 2023, compared to the same period in 2022, driven primarily by an increase in servicing fee revenue driven by an increase in the average unpaid principal balance of loans owned by third-party loan owners, which increased from $3.0 billion during the nine months ended March 31, 2022 we generated 38% and 40% of our revenue from interest

Gain on Sales of Loans
We sell a portion of$0.6 million related to the loans we originate or purchase from our originating bank partners to third-party investors. We recognize a gain or loss on sale of such loans as the difference between the proceeds received, adjusted for initial recognitionchanges in fair value of servicing assets and liabilities obtained at the date of sale, and the carrying value of the loan. During the three and nine months ended March 31, 2022, gain on sale was reduced by $0.9 million and $3.1 million duecontributed to the net impact of theoverall increase in servicing assets and liabilities of the loans sold, respectively. During both the three and nine months ended March 31, 2022, we generated 15% of our revenue from gain on sales of loans. During the three and nine months ended March 31, 2021, we generated 7% and 8% of our revenue from gain on sales of loans, respectively.
Servicing Income
We earn a specified fee from providing professional services to manage loan portfolios on behalf of our third-party loan owners. Under the servicing agreements with our third-party loan owners, we are entitled to collect servicing fees on the loans that we service, which are paid monthly based upon an annual fixed percentage of the outstanding loan portfolio balance. During the three and nine months ended March 31, 2022, we generated 7% and 4% of our revenue from servicing fees, respectively. During both the three and nine months ended March 31, 2021, we generated 3% of our revenue from servicing fees.
We expect our revenue may vary from period to period based on, among other things, the timing of onboarding and size of new merchants, the mix of 0% APR loans versus interest-bearing loans with simple interest, loan funding strategy and mix, type and mix of products that our merchants offer to their customers, the rate of repeat transactions, transaction volume, and seasonality of or fluctuations in usage of our platform.
Operating Expenses
Our operating expenses consist of the loss on loan purchase commitment made to our originating bank partners, the provision for credit losses, funding costs, processing and servicing, technology and data analytics, sales and marketing, and general and administrative expenses. Salaries and personnel-related costs, including benefits, bonuses, stock-based compensation expense and occupancy, comprise a significant component of several of these expense categories. An allocation of overhead, such as rent and other overhead, is based on employee headcount and included in processing and servicing, technology and data analytics, sales and marketing, and general and administrative expenses.
As of March 31, 2022, we had 2,233 employees,income, compared to 1,641 employees as of June 30, 2021. We increased our headcount and personnel related costs across our businessthe same period in order to support our growth expansion strategy.

Merchant network revenue
Merchant network revenue is impacted by both GMV and the mix of loans originated on our platform as merchant fees vary based on loan characteristics. In particular, merchant network revenue as a varietypercentage of factors, includingGMV typically increases with longer-term, non interest-bearing loans with higher AOVs, and decreases with shorter-term, interest-bearing loans with lower AOVs.
Merchant network revenue decreased by $2.0 million, or 2%, for the composition and qualitythree months ended March 31, 2023 compared to the same period in fiscal 2022. The decrease is primarily attributed to a decrease of $274.2 million in long-term non-interest bearing loans, our highest merchant fee category, for the three months ended March 31, 2023. The decrease was partially offset by an increase of $742.8 million in short term interest bearing loans, which typically have lower merchant fees, in line with the decline in merchant network revenue as a percentage of GMV discussed below.

Total Revenue, net for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2022 increased by $124.1 million or 54% and $376.5 million or 62%, respectively, compared to the three and nine months ended March 31, 2021. The increase is primarily due to an increase of $1.7 billion or 73% and $5.3 billion or 91% in GMV on our platform during the quarter, from $2.3 billion and $5.8 billion for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2021, respectively, to $3.9 billion and $11.1 billion for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2022, respectively. This increase in GMV was driven by the strong network effects of the expansion of our active merchant base from 11,513 as of March 31, 2021 to 207,049 as of March 31, 2022, an increase in active consumers from 5.4 million as of March 31, 2021 to 12.7 million as of March 31, 2022, and an increase in average transactions per consumer from 2.3 as of March 31, 2021 to 2.7 as of March 31, 2022.
Merchant network revenue for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2022 increased by $23.1 million or 24% and $49.5 million or 17%, compared to the three and nine months ended March 31, 2021, respectively. Merchant network revenue as a percentage of GMV for the three months ended March 31, 2022 decreased to 3.1% compared to 4.3% for the three months ended March 31, 2021, and decreased to 3.1% for the nine months ended March 31, 2022 compared to 5.0% for the nine months ended March 31, 2021.
Merchant network revenue growth
Merchant network revenue is generally correlated withimpacted by both GMV growth and the mix of loans originated on our platform as differentmerchant fees vary based on loan characteristics are positively or negatively correlated with merchant fee revenue as a percentage of GMV.characteristics. In particular, merchant network revenue as a percentage of GMV typically increases with the term lengthlonger-term, non interest-bearing loans with higher AOVs, and AOV of our loans, and typically decreases with shorter duration and higher APR loans. Specifically,shorter-term, interest-bearing loans with lower AOVs.
Merchant network revenue decreased by $2.0 million, or 2%, for the three months ended March 31, 2023 compared to the same period in fiscal 2022. The decrease is primarily attributed to a decrease of $274.2 million in long-term 0% APRnon-interest bearing loans, our highest merchant fee category, for the three months ended March 31, 2023. The decrease was partially offset by an increase of $742.8 million in short term interest bearing loans, which typically carry higherhave lower merchant fees, in line with the decline in merchant network revenue as a percentage of GMV discussed below.

Merchant network revenue increased by $25.8 million, or 8%, for the nine months ended March 31, 2023, compared to the same period in fiscal 2022. The increase is primarily attributed to an increase of $3.6 billion in GMV for the nine months ended March 31, 2023. The increase in GMV is a result of the expansion of our active merchant base from 207,049 as of March 31, 2022 to 245,652 as of March 31, 2023, an increase in active consumers from 12.7 million as of March 31, 2022 to 16.0 million as of March 31, 2023, and have higher AOVs.
Thean increase in average transactions per consumer from 2.7 as of March 31, 2022 to 3.6 as of March 31, 2023. Despite the increase in merchant network revenue, merchant network revenue as a percentage of GMV contracted and AOVs decreased during the three and nine month periodperiod. Merchant network revenue as a percentage of GMV was primarily driven by an increase in GMV, partially offset by reductions in2% for the concentration of long-term 0% APR loans, our highest merchant fee category. For the three and nine months ended March 31, 2022, approximately 8% and 10%, respectively, of total revenue2023, down from 3% for the same period in fiscal 2022. AOV was driven by our largest merchant partner by merchant network revenue, Peloton,$319 for which we facilitate long-term 0% APR loans with a higher merchant fee, compared with 20% and 31% of total revenue in the comparative periods. More broadly, for both the three and nine months ended March 31, 2022,2023, down from $377 for the same period in fiscal 2022. These decreases are the result of a higher frequency of consumers choosing Affirm as their payment option with merchants that offer shorter-term, interest-bearing loans with term lengths greater than 12 months accounted for 21% of GMV, compared to 30%lower AOVs, resulting in lower merchant fees.
Virtual card network revenue
Virtual card network revenue increased by $6.3 million, or 27%, and 32%$16.2 million, or 23%, for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2021,2023, respectively, primarily duecompared to the increased adoptionsame period in 2022. Virtual card network revenue growth is correlated with the growth of GMV processed by our Split Pay product. AOV was lower at $374issuer processors. As such, the increase is primarily driven by $1.4 billion and $377$4.2 billion of GMV processed through our issuer processors, an increase of 22% and 27% for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2022,2023, respectively, compared to $564 and $577 for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2021, respectively, primarily due to the increased adoption of our Split Pay product.

Table of Contents
Additionally, we recorded reductions to merchant network revenue of $21.7 million and $63.9 million for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2022, respectively, associated with the creation of discounts upon origination of loans with par values in excess of the fair value of such loans, compared to $5.4 million and $12.4 million during the three and nine months ended March 31, 2021, respectively. These reductions to merchant network revenue are primarily due to our Split Pay product and our 0% APR lending programs outside of the United States.
Virtual card network revenue for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2022 increased by $9.4 million or 68% and $38.5 million or 126%,as compared to the three and nine months ended March 31, 2021, respectively.same period in 2022. This increase was driven by an increase in GMV processed through our issuer processoris the result of 75% and 122% for the three and nine months March 31, 2022, respectively, due to increased activity on our virtual card-enabled mobile application, as well as growth in existing and new merchants integrated using our virtual card platform.platform, growing from 1,053 merchants as of March 31, 2022 to 1,226 merchants as of March 31, 2023. Virtual card network revenue is also impacted by the mix of merchants as different merchants can have different interchange rates depending on their industry or size, among other factors.
Interest income
Interest incomeincreased by $43.7 million, or 32%, and $80.1 million, or 21%, for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2022 increased by $40.1 million or 42% and $167.6 million or 75%,2023, respectively, compared to the three and nine months ended March 31, 2021.same period in fiscal 2022. Generally, interest income is correlated with the changes in the average balance of loans held for investment, as we recognize interest on loans held for investment using the effective interest method over the life of the loan.investment. The average balance of loans held for investment increased by 21%51% to $2,464.2$3.7 billion and 39% to $3.2 billion for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2023, respectively, compared to the same period in fiscal 2022. The increase in loans held for investment on our interim consolidated balance sheet is in response to the current market environment and our ability to allocate loans to warehouse facilities with better economic terms while optimizing cost of funds. Coupled with the increase in loans held for investment on our interim consolidated balance sheet, interest income from interest bearing loans increased from $95.3 million and by 39% to $2,262.6$266.9 million for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2022 respectively, compared to the same period in the prior fiscal year.
As an annualized percentage of average loans held$147.8 million and $379.8 million for investment, total interest income increased from approximately 19% during the three months ended March 31, 2021 to 22% during the three months ended March 31, 2022. This change was driven by a decrease in the average proportion of 0% APR loans being held on our interim condensed consolidated balance sheet as a percentage of the total loans held for investment, which decreased from 51% and 47% during the three and nine months ended March 31, 2021 to 39% and 41% during the three and nine months ended March 31, 2022. The shift was largely due to increased concentration of loans with large enterprise merchant partners; those loans tend to be interest-bearing.
We recognize interest income on 0% APR loans via the amortization of the loan discount. Short term 0% APR loans, including Split Pay loans, carry higher annualized discounts as percentages of annualized loan balances than longer term loans, and thus amortize more discount into interest income as percentages of unpaid principal balance than longer term loans. Therefore, the change in the mix of 0% APR loans held for investment is also contributing to the increase in interest income as an annualized percentage of average loans held for investment. The total amortization of discounts on loans held for investment increased by $13.8 million or 44% and $70.0 million or 102% for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2022, respectively, compared with the three and nine months ended March 31, 2021. The amortization of discounts represented 34% and 36% of total interest income for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2022, compared to 33% and 31% for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2021,2023, respectively. This increase includedwas in part due to recent pricing initiatives including increasing the amortizationmaximum APR for loans facilitated on our platform from 30% to 36% and introducing merchant-subsidized low APR loans (4-9.99%) as an alternative to monthly 0% APR programs.
Gain on sales of discounts arising from self-originated loans held for investment of $33.2 million and $79.7 million during the three and nine months ended March 31, 2022, respectively, which was $7.8 million and $9.7 million for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2021, respectively.
Gain on sales of loans decreased by $19.7 million, or 37%, for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2022 increased by $36.1 million or 221%, and $93.8 million or 198%,2023 compared to the three and nine months ended March 31, 2021.same period in 2022, primarily due to a decrease in loan sale volume as we retain more loans on balance sheet in response to the current market environment. We sold loans with an unpaid balance of $756.7 million and $2,013.2 million$1.7 billion for the three andmonths ended March 31, 2023 compared to $2.0 billion for the same period in 2022.
Gain on sales of loansincreased by $14.9 million, or 11%, for the nine months ended March 31, 2021, respectively, and $2,042.5 million and $5,647.5 million2023, compared to the same period in 2022, mainly driven by increased loan sale activity. We sold loans with an unpaid balance of $5.8 billion for the three and nine months ended and March 31, 2022,2023 compared to $5.6 billion for which we retained servicing rights.the same period in 2022. This increase was primarily due todriven by higher loan sale volume favorableto third-party loan sale pricing terms,buyers and optimizing the allocation of loans to loan buyers with highermore favorable pricing terms.

Servicing income
Servicing income includes net servicing fee revenue and fair value adjustments for servicing assets and liabilities, and is recognized for loan portfolios sold to third party loan buyers and for loans held within our off balance sheet securitizations. Servicing fee revenue varies by contractual servicing fee arrangement and is earned as a percentage of the average unpaid principal balance of loans held by each counterparty where we have a servicing agreement. We reduce servicing income for certain fees we are required to pay per our contractual servicing arrangement.
With respect to fair value adjustments, we remeasure the fair value of servicing assets and liabilities each period and recognize the change in fair value in servicing income. We utilize a discounted cash flow approach to remeasure the fair value of servicing rights. Because we earn servicing income based on the outstanding principal balance of the portfolio, fair value adjustments are impacted by the timing and amount of loan repayments. As such, over the term of each loan portfolio sold, fair value adjustments for servicing assets will decrease servicing income and fair value adjustments for servicing liabilities will increase servicing income. We discuss our valuation methodology and significant level 3 inputs for servicing assets and liabilities within Note 14. Fair Value of Financial Assets and Liabilities.

We purchase certain loans from our originating bank partners that are processed through our platform and our originating bank partners put back to us. Under the terms of the agreements with our originating bank partners, we are generally required to pay the principal amount plus accrued interest for such loans. In certain instances, our originating bank partners may originate loans with zero or below market interest rates that we are required to purchase. In these instances, we may be required to purchase the loan for a price in excess of the fair market value of such loans, which results in a loss. These losses are recognized as loss on loan purchase commitment in our interim condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. These costs are incurred on a per loan basis.
Loss on loan purchase commitment decreased by $15.6 million, or 33%, and $58.5 million, or 36%, for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2022 decreased by $15.2 million or 24% and $31.9 million or 16%,2023, respectively, compared to the three and nine months ended March 31, 2021, respectively.same period in 2022. This decrease was due to a decrease in the volume and concentration of long-term 0% APR loans purchased from our originating bank partners compared to the prior period, which are purchased above fair market value. The difference between fair value The decreaseand purchase price for our loans is generally correlated with the term length and APR of the loans. As such, the reduction in the long term 0% loans purchased from our bank partner contributed to the decline in loss on loan purchase commitment. Additionally, as the percentage of our portfolio shifts towards more interest bearing loans, loss on loan purchase commitment is also impacted by changes in the estimate of fair value of the loans driven primarily by the mix of loan terms.decreases.

Provision for credit losses generally represents the amount of expense required to maintain the allowance for credit losses on our interim condensed consolidated balance sheet, which represents management’s estimate of future losses. In the event that our loans outperform expectation and/or we reduce our expectation of credit losses in future periods, we may release reserves and thereby reduce the allowance for credit losses, yielding income in the provision for credit losses. The provision is determined by the change in estimates for future losses and the net charge-offs incurred in the period. We record provision expense for each loan we retain as loans held for investment, whether we originate the loan or purchase it from one of our originating bank partners.
Provision for credit losses increased by $0.1 million, or less than 1%, for the three months ended March 31, 2023 compared to the same period in 2022, driven by growth in the volume of loans held for investment. Loans held for investment increased by $120.0 million during the three months ended March 31, 2023 compared to a $78.0 million increase during the same period in 2022. The increase was almost entirely offset by improvements in credit quality of loans outstanding and updates to the assumptions used in our credit loss valuation model, including a refinement to the application of our stress loss multiple.
Provision for credit losses increased by $54.8 million, or 30%, for the nine months ended March 31, 2023 compared to the same period in 2022, driven by growth in the volume of loans held for investment and partially offset by improvements in credit quality of loans outstanding. Loans held for investment increased by $1,272.0 million during the nine months ended March 31, 2023 compared to a $481.2 million increase during the same period in 2022.
Total loans held for investment was $3,775.5 million and $2,502.9 million as of March 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The allowance for credit losses as a percentage of loans held for investment increaseddecreased from 5.2% as of March 31, 2021 to 6.4% as of March 31, 2022 to 4.7% as of March 31, 2023, primarily duedriven by improvements in credit quality of loans outstanding and updates to a deconcentrationthe assumptions used in our credit loss valuation model.

Funding Costs

Funding costs consist of long-term, lower-credit-risk 0% APRinterest expense and the amortization of fees for certain borrowings collateralized by our loans including on our balance sheet VIEs, sale and rapid growth of new platformsrepurchase agreements collateralized by our retained securitization interests, and partnershipsother costs incurred in connection with higher expected losses.
Additionally, duringfunding the prior fiscal year, following the loss of our emerging growth company status, we adopted ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments — Credit Losses (Topic 326)” using the modified retrospective approach. The amendments replaced the incurred loss impairment methodology for computing our allowance for credit losses with the current expected credit loss model ("CECL"), effective July 1, 2020. As part of this modified retrospective approach to adoption, we recorded an adjustment reducing the provision for credit losses by $16.3 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2021.
During the three months ended March 31, 2022, provision for credit losses expense increased $67.4 million compared to the $1.1 million provision for credit losses income recognized for the three months ended March 31, 2021. Prior year provision for credit losses was recognized as income due to a combination of factors reducing the allowance for credit losses during the three months ended March 31, 2021. Firstly, continued stronger than expected repayment performance of the portfolio resulted in a decrease of approximately $12.3 million. Secondly, we began transitioning to a new underlying data model which incorporates internal improvements to our underwriting and collections processes. This change in model resulted in a decrease of approximately $48.2 million. These decreases were largely offset by allowances recognized on new purchases and originations of loans held for investment in the period with generally higher credit quality. For the nine months ended March 31, 2022, provision for credit losses increased $142.2 million or 352% compared to the nine months ended March 31, 2021. The discrete adjustments in 2021 resulted in prior year provision being unusually low while this year’s figures reflect the intentional normalization of credit.

When we originate a loan directly or purchase a loan originated by our inception, accumulating a deficit of $1.4 billionoriginating bank partners, we often utilize warehouse facilities with certain lenders to finance our lending activities or loan purchases. We sell the loans we originate or purchase from our originating bank partners to whole loan buyers and $0.9 billion as of March 31, 2022 and June 30, 2021, respectively. We have historically financed the majority of our operating and capital needssecuritization investors through the sales of equity securities, borrowings from debt facilities and convertible debt, third-party loan saleforward flow arrangements and cash flowssecuritization transactions, and earn servicing fees from operations.

We proactively manage the allocation of loans on our platform across various funding channels based on several factors including, but not limited to, internal risk limits and October 2020,policies, capital market conditions and channel economics. With rising interest rates and inflation, our excess funding capacity and committed and long-term relationships with a diverse group of existing funding partners help provide flexibility as we issued an aggregate of 21,836,687 shares of Series G preferred stock for aggregate cash proceeds of $435.1 million.

Warehouse Credit Facilities
Our warehouse credit facilities, which allow us to borrow up to an aggregate of $4.0 billion, mature between 2023 and 2029 and subject to covenant compliance, generally permit borrowings up to 12 months prior to the final maturity date. As of March 31, 2023, we have drawn an aggregate of $1.5 billion on our warehouse facilities. As of March 31, 2023, we were in compliance with all applicable covenants in the agreements. Refer to Note 10. Debt in the notes to the interim condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Form 10-Q for further details on our warehouse credit facilities.
Convertible Senior Notes
In November 2021, we closed on the issuance of $1.7 billion aggregate principal amount of a convertible senior note which does not bear regular interest, and will mature on November 15, 2026 unless earlier converted, redeemed, or repurchased in accordance with their terms. During the period ended March 31, 2023, we entered into a series of privately negotiated transactions with certain holders of our 2026 Notes, pursuant to which we paid an aggregate amount of $206.6 million in cash for the repurchase of $299.1 million aggregate principal amount of our 2026 Notes. Refer to Note 10. Debt in the notes to the interim condensed consolidated financial statements for further details on our convertible debt note.
Revolving Credit Facility
In February 2022, we entered into a revolving credit agreement for a $165.0 million unsecured revolving credit facility, maturing on February 4, 2025, which was subsequently amended to increase the unsecured revolving commitments to $205.0 million. The facility contains certain covenants and restrictions, including certain financial maintenance covenants. As of March 31, 2023, we were in compliance with all applicable covenants in the agreements. To date, there are no borrowings outstanding under the facility. Refer to Note 10. Debt in the notes to the interim condensed consolidated financial statements for further details on our revolving credit facility.
Securitizations
In connection with asset-backed securitizations, we sponsor and establish trusts (deemed to be VIEs) to ultimately purchase loans facilitated by our platform. Securities issued from our asset-backed securitizations are senior or subordinated, based on the waterfall criteria of loan payments to each security class. The subordinated residual interests issued from these transactions are first to absorb credit losses in accordance with the waterfall criteria. We consolidate securitization VIEs when we are deemed to be the primary beneficiary and therefore have the power to direct the activities that most significantly affect the VIEs’ economic performance and a variable interest that could potentially be significant to the VIE. Where we consolidate the securitization trusts, the loans held in the securitization trusts are included in loans held for investment, and the notes sold to third-party investors are recorded in notes issued by securitization trusts in the interim condensed consolidated balance sheets. Refer to Note 11. Securitization and Variable Interest Entities.

Factors Impacting Liquidity
We believe that our existingcurrent levels of cash, balances,cash equivalents, marketable debt securities, available borrowing capacity under our revolving debtcredit facilities revolving securitizations and off-balance sheet loan sale arrangements, and cash from operations,other liquidity actions currently available to us are sufficient to meet both our existing operating, working capital, and capital expenditureliquidity requirements and our currently planned growth for at least the next 12 months. WeHowever, we cannot provide assurance however, that our business will generate sufficient cash flows from operations or that future borrowings will be available to us in an amount sufficient to enable us to fund our liquidity needs in the long-term. Our ability to do so depends on prevailing economic conditions and other factors, many of which are beyond our control. Our on-
The principal factors that could impact our liquidity and off-balance sheet facilities providecapital needs are customer delinquencies and defaults, a prolonged inability to adequately access capital market funding, declines in loan purchases and therefore revenue, fluctuations in our financial performance and instability of certain financial institutions. If our available cash balances are insufficient to satisfy our liquidity requirements, we will seek additional equity or debt financing. In a rising interest rate environment, our ability to issue additional equity or incur debt may be impaired and our borrowing costs may increase. Additionally, we may be subject to various constraining limits on the financed portfolios. These limits are generally tied to loan-level attributes such as loan term, credit quality,restrictions and interest rate, as well as borrower- and merchant-level attributes.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
As of March 31, 2022, we had approximately $2.3 billion of cash and cash equivalents to fund our future operations compared to approximately $1.5 billion as of June 30, 2021. This increase is primarily due to the proceeds of the 2026 Notes issuance on November 23, 2021. Our cash and cash equivalents were comprised of operating bank accounts, money market funds, certificates of deposits, corporate bonds, and other commercial paper with maturities less than three months. Cash and cash equivalents are held primarily for continued investment in our business, for working capital purposes, and to facilitate a portion of our lending activities. Our policy is to invest cash in excess of our immediate working capital requirements in liquid investments and deposit accounts to preserve the principal balance and maintain adequate liquidity.
Restricted Cash
Restricted cash consists primarily of: (i) deposits restricted by standby letters of credit for office leases and merchant partnership agreements; (ii) funds held in accounts as collateral for our originating bank partners; and (iii) servicing funds held in accounts contractually restricted by agreements with warehouse credit facilities and third-party loan owners. We have no ability to draw on such funds as long as they remain restricted under the applicable arrangements.

Warehouse Credit Facilities
Through trusts, we entered into warehouse credit facilities with certain lenders to finance the purchase and origination of our loans. These trusts are consolidated variable interest entities (“VIEs”), and each trust entered into a credit agreement and security agreement with a commercial bank as administrative agent and a national banking association as collateral trustee and paying agent. Borrowings under these agreements are referred to as funding debt. These credit agreements contain operating covenants, including limitations on the incurrence of certain indebtedness and liens, restrictions on certain intercompany transactions, and limitations on the amount of dividends and stock repurchases. Our funding debt facilities include concentration limits for various loan characteristics including credit quality, product mix, geography, and merchant concentration. As of March 31, 2022, we were in compliance with all applicable covenants in the agreements. Refer to Note 10. Debt in the notes to the interim consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Form 10-Q for additional information.
These revolving facilities mature between 2022 and 2029, and subject to covenant compliance generally permit borrowings up to 12 months prior to the final maturity date. Borrowings under these facilities generally occur multiple times per week, and generally coincide with the purchase of loans from our originating bank partners. We manage liquidity by accessing diversified pools of capital and avoid concentration with any single counterparty; we are diversified across different types of investors including investment banks, asset managers, and insurance companies.
Borrowings under these facilities bear interest at an annual benchmark rate of LIBOR or at an alternative commercial paper rate (which is either (i) the per annum rate equivalent to the weighted-average of the per annum rates at which all commercial paper notes were issued by certain lenders to fund advances or maintain loans, or (ii) the daily weighted-average of LIBOR, as set forth in the applicable credit agreement), plus a spread ranging from 1.65% to 4.00%. Interest is payable monthly. In addition, these agreements require payment of a monthly unused commitment fee ranging from 0% to 0.75% per annum on the undrawn portion available.
Other Funding Facilities
Prior to our acquisition of PayBright on January 1, 2021, PayBright entered into various credit facilities utilized to finance the origination of loans in Canada. Similar to our warehouse credit facilities, borrowings under these agreements are referred to as funding debt, and proceeds from the borrowings may only be used for the purposes of facilitating loan funding and origination. These facilities are secured by PayBright loan receivables pledged to the respective facility as collateral, mature in 2022, and bear interest based on a benchmark rate plus a spread ranging from 1.25% to 4.25%.
Revolving Credit Facility
On February 4, 2022, we entered into a revolving credit agreement with a syndicate of commercial banks for a $165.0 million unsecured revolving credit facility, maturing on February 4, 2025. This facility bears interest at

a rate equal to, at our option, either (a) a SOFR rate determined by reference to the forward-looking term SOFR rate for the interest period, plus an applicable margin of 1.85% per annum or (b) a base rate determined by reference to the highest of (i) the federal funds rate plus 0.50% per annum, (ii) the rate last quoted by the Wall Street Journal as the U.S. prime rate and (iii) the one-month forward-looking term SOFR rate plus 1.0% per annum, in each case, plus an applicable margin of 0.85% per annum. The facility contains certain covenants and restrictions, including certain financial maintenance covenants, and requires payment of a monthly unused commitment fee of 0.20% per annum on the undrawn balance available. There are no borrowings outstanding under the facility. Refer to Note 10. Debt.
Securitizations
In connection with asset-backed securitizations, we sponsor and establish trusts to ultimately purchase loans facilitated by our platform. Securities issued from our asset-backed securitizations are senior or subordinated, based on the waterfall criteria of loan payments to each security class. The subordinated residual interests issued fromgoverning these transactions are first to absorb credit losses in accordance with the waterfall criteria. The assets are transferred into a trust such that the assets are legally isolated from the creditors of Affirm and are not available to satisfy our obligations. These assets can only be used to settle obligations of the underlying trusts. Each securitization trust issued senior notes and residual certificates to finance the purchase of the loans facilitated by our platform. The 2020-Z1, 2020-Z2, 2021-Z1, 2021-Z2 and 2022-X1 securitizations are secured by static pools of loans contributed at closing, whereas the 2020-A, 2021-A and 2021-B securitizations are revolvingmay place limitations on us, and we may contributebe required to pledge additional loans from timecollateral as security.

Cash Flows from Operating Activities
Our largest sources of operating cash are fees charged to merchant partners on transactions processed through our platform and interest income from consumers’ loans. Our primary uses of cash from operating activities are for general and administrative, technology and data analytics, funding costs, processing and servicing, and sales and marketing expenses.

Table of Contents
For the nine months ended March 31, 2023, net cash used in operating activities of $31.6 million stemmed from a net loss of $779.4 million, partially offset by a positive adjustment for non-cash items of $702.5 million, favorable change in our operating assets net of operating liabilities of $45.3 million, including net proceeds from sale and purchase of loans of $118.5 million. The change in operating assets net of operating liabilities was primarily a result of our purchase and sale of loans held for sale activities. We purchased loans of $4.7 billion, which was offset by proceeds from loan sales of $4.8 billion. The positive adjustment for non-cash items was primarily driven by commercial agreement assets of $330.7 million which increased compared to the third quarter of the prior year as a result of amortization on our commercial agreements with Amazon, provision for credit losses of $237.4 million which increased by $54.8 million compared to the third quarter of the prior year, and stock-based compensation of $348.4 million which increased by $68.3 million compared to the third quarter of the prior year resulting from year over year increased headcount.

Additionally, we hadmillion, and net cash outflows of $8.6$9.0 million provided by changes in our operating assets and liabilities.
Non-cash charges primarily consisted of: provision for credit losses, which increased by $142.2 million or 352% due to a change in product mix for on-balance sheet loans and an unusually low provision expense in the prior comparative period driven by the release of stressed expected loss scenarios and the adoption of CECL; gain on sales of loans, which increased by $93.8 millionCash Flows from $47.3 million forInvesting Activities
For the nine months ended March 31, 20212023, net cash used in investing activities of $875.9 million was primarily attributable to purchases and origination of loans held for investment of $9.6 billion, partially offset by repayments of loans and proceeds from sale of loans of $8.3 billion. During the period we originated loans of $2.7 billion and purchased loans of $7.0 billion, representing a combined increase of $2.2 billion compared to the same period in 2022, due partly to improved loancontinued growth in GMV. Loan repayments and sale economics and increased loan sales sinceof loans of $8.3 billion during the third quarterperiod, represented an increase of $1.1 billion, compared to the same period in 2022, due in part to shifting of the prior fiscal year; and amortizationlength of premiums and discounts, which increasedloan terms on our balance sheet netted of by $69.0 million or 114% duehigher average balance of loans held for investment compared to increased amortization of discountsthe same period in 2022.

This change was primarily driven by a decrease in other assets due to a reduction of prepaid payroll taxes during the nine months ended March 31, 2022.
Investing Activities
Cash used in investing activities for the nine months ended March 31, 2022 wasof $985.6 million a decreasewas primarily attributable to $7.5 billion of $120.8purchases and originations of loans, due partly to continued growth in GMV. We recorded cash outflows of approximately $770.0 million from $1,106.4 millionrelated to purchases of available for sale securities in the nine months ended March 31, 2021. The main driver of this was $5,867.6 million ofcurrent period. These cash outflows were partially offset by repayments of loans representing an increase of $2,865.2 million, or 95%, compared to the third quarter of the prior year,$5.9 billion, due to a higher average balance of loans held for investment and generally increasing credit quality of the portfolio. Additionally, we sold $1,330.3obtained $1.3 billion in cash from selling loans to whole loan buyers and securitization investors.
Cash Flows from Financing Activities
For the nine months ended March 31, 2023, net cash provided by financing activities of $740.4 million, was primarily attributable to net cash inflows from funding debt of $853.7 million, and the issuance and repayment of notes and certificates issued by securitization trust of $165.4 million, partially offset by net cash outflows related to the repayment of a portion of our convertible senior notes of $206.6 million. Our payments of debt issuance costs were in the normal course of business and reflective of our recurring debt warehouse facility activity, which involves securing new warehouse facilities and extending existing warehouse facilities. Finally, we paid taxes related to RSU vesting of $63.5 million.
For the nine months ended March 31, 2022, net cash provided by financing activities of $2.1 billion, was primarily driven by the issuance of convertible debt which resulted in net cash inflows of $1.7 billion, net of debt issuance costs. Additionally, the issuance of notes by securitization trusts resulted in net cash inflows of $265.8 million, net of in-period principal repayments, and our funding debt resulted in $203.4 million of loans, representing an increase of $982.1 million or 282% compared tonet cash inflows as draws on our revolving credit facilities exceeded principal repayments on the third quarter of the prior year.debt. These cash inflows were partially offset by $7,529.3 million of purchases of loans, representing an increase of $3,215.5 million or 75% compared to the third quarter of the prior year, due partly to continued growth in GMV. Additionally, we recorded cash outflows of approximately $770.0 milliontax payments related to purchases of available for sale securities in the current period.
Financing Activities
Cash provided by financing activities for the nine months ended March 31, 2022 was $2,066.0 million, a decrease of $688.0 million from $2,754.0 million during the nine months ended March 31, 2021. A main driver of this wasRSU vesting of warrants for common stock of $1,305.3 million during the nine months ended March 31, 2021 compared to no activity during the nine months ended March 31, 2022. Additionally, during the nine months ended March 31, 2022, we saw a $986.0 million decrease in cash inflows from the issuance of notes by our securitization trusts, net of in-period principal repayments, from $1,251.7 million during the nine months ended March 31, 2021. This decrease in net cash inflows was partially offset by the issuance of convertible debt during the nine months ended March 31, 2022, which resulted in net cash inflows of $1,704.3 million, net of debt issuance costs.$166.9 million.

Liquidity and Capital Risks and Requirements

There are numerous risks to our financial results, liquidity, capital raising, and debt refinancing plans, some of which may not be quantified in our current liquidity forecasts. The principal factors that could impact our liquidity and capital needs are customer delinquencies and defaults, a prolonged inability to adequately access capital market funding, declines in loan purchases and therefore revenue, fluctuations in our financial performance, the timing and extent of spending to support development efforts, the expansion of sales and marketing activities, the introduction of new and enhanced products, and the continuing market adoption of our platform. We intend to support our liquidity and capital position by pursuing diversified debt financings (including new securitizations and revolving debt facilities) and extending existing secured revolving facilities to provide committed liquidity in case of prolonged market fluctuations.
We may, in the future, enter into arrangements to acquire or invest in complementary businesses, products, and technologies. We may be required to seek additional equity or debt financing in connection with those efforts. In the event that we require additional financing, we may not be able to raise such financing on terms acceptable to us or at all. Additionally, as a result of any of these actions, we may be subject to restrictions and covenants in the agreements governing these transactions that may place limitations on us, and we may be required to pledge additional collateral as security. If we are unable to raise additional capital or generate cash flows necessary to expand our operations and invest in continued innovation, we may not be able to compete successfully, which would harm our business, operations, and financial condition. It is also possible that the actual outcome of one or more of our plans could be materially different than expected or that one or more of our significant judgments or estimates could prove to be materially incorrect.
Concentrations of Revenue
For the three and nine months ended March 31, 2022, there were no merchants that exceeded 10% of total revenue. For the three and nine months ended March 31, 2021 approximately 20% and 31% of total revenue, respectively, was driven by one merchant partner, Peloton. We believe we have a strong relationship with Peloton and, in September 2020, we entered into a renewed merchant agreement with Peloton with an initial three-year term ending in September 2023, which automatically renews for additional and successive one-year terms until terminated. While we believe our growth will facilitate both revenue growth and merchant diversification as we continue to integrate with a wide range of merchants, changes in merchant loan volume and revenue concentration may cause our financial and operating performance to fluctuate significantly from period to period. Our revenue as a percentage of GMV in any given period varies across products. As such, as we continue to expand our network to include more merchants, revenue as a percentage of GMV will vary.
Contractual Obligations

On November 23, 2021, the Company issued $1.7 billion in aggregate principal amount of 0% convertible senior notes due 2026 (the “2026 Notes”). The 2026 Notes represent senior unsecured obligationsThere were no material changes outside of the Company.

For off-balance sheet loan sales where servicing is the only form of continuing involvement, we would only experience a loss if we were required to repurchase such a loan due to a breach in representations and warranties associated with our loan sale or servicing contracts. For unconsolidated securitization transactions where Affirm is the sponsor and risk retention holder, Affirm could experience a loss of up to 5% of both the senior notes and residual certificates. As of March 31, 2022,2023, the aggregate outstanding balance of loans held by third-party investors orfor off-balance sheet VIEs was $4.0$4.2 billion. As of March 31, 2022, we had three off-balance sheet VIEs, the 2021-Z1, 2021-Z2, and 2022-X1

Item 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
We have operations within the United States, Canada, and Australia,the United Kingdom, and we are exposed to market risks in the ordinary course of our business. Market risk represents the risk of loss that may impact our financial position due to adverse changes in financial market prices and interest rates. Our market risk exposure is primarily the result of fluctuations in interest rates. Foreign currency exchange rates do not pose a material market risk exposure, as most of our revenue is earned in U.S. dollars.
Interest Rate Risk
Our cash and cash equivalents and certain of our restricted cash as of March 31, 2022 were held primarily in checking, money market, and savings accounts. As of March 31, 2022, we had $1,462.0 million of cash equivalents invested in money market funds, certificates of deposit, corporate bonds, and other commercial paper with maturities less than three months. Our cash and cash equivalents are held for working capital purposes. The fair value of our cash and cash equivalents and certain restricted cash would not be significantly affected by a change in interest rates due to their short-term nature.
Our securities available for sale at fair value as of March 31, 20222023 included $617.0 million$1.1 billion of marketable debt securities with maturities greater than three months. A rise in interest rates would have an adverse impact on the fair market value of our fixed rate securities while floating rate securities would produce less income than expected if interest rates were to decrease. Because our investment policy is to invest in conservative, liquid investments and because our business strategy does not rely on generating material returns from our investment portfolio, we do not expect our market risk exposure on marketable debt securities to be material.significant.
Continued volatility in interest rates and potentially inflation, which may persist longer than previously expected, may adversely impact our customers’ spending levels and ability and willingness to pay outstanding amounts owed to us. Higher interest rates may lead to higher payment obligations on our future credit products, or to their lenders under mortgage, credit card, and other loans. Therefore, higher interest rates may lead to increased delinquencies, charge-offs, and allowances for loans and interest receivable, which could have an adverse effect on our operating results.
We rely on a variety of funding sources with varying degrees of interest rate sensitivities. Certain of our funding arrangements bear a variable interest rate. Given the fixed interest rates charged on the loans that we purchase from our originating bank partners or originate ourselves, a rising variable interest rate would reduce our interest margin earned in these funding arrangements. Additionally, certain of our loan sale agreements are repriced on a recurring basis using a mechanism tied to interest rates as well as loan performance. Increases in interest rates could reduce our loan sale economics. We also rely on securitization transactions, with notes typically bearing a fixed coupon. Increases in interest rates may result in higher coupons using refinancing. and therefore lower interest income received on securitizations where we retain the residual interest and a lower gain on sale for securitizations in which we sell the equity interest.
We maintain an interest rate hedgingrisk management program which measures and manages the potential volatility of earnings that may arise from changes in interest rates. We use interest rate derivatives to mitigate the effects of changes in interest rates on our variable rate debt which eliminates some, but not all, of the interest rate risk. Some of these contracts are designated as cash flow hedges for accounting purposes. For those contracts designated as cash flow hedges, the effective portion of the gain or loss on the derivatives is recorded in other comprehensive income (loss) and is reclassified into funding costs in the same period the hedged transaction affects earnings. Factoring in thisthe interest rate risk management program, as of March 31, 2022,2023, we estimate that a hypothetical instantaneous 100 basis point upward parallel shock to interest rates would have a less than $30.0 million adverse impact on our annual financial results over the next 12 months.
Credit Risk
We have credit risk primarily related to our consumer loans held for investment. We are exposed to default risk on both loan receivables purchased from our originating bank partners and loan receivables that are directly originated. The ultimate collectability of a substantial portion of the loan portfolio is susceptible to changes in economic and market conditions. To manage this risk, we utilize our ITACs models to underwrite, score, and price loans in a manner that we believe is reflective of the credit risk. Other credit levers such as user limits and/or down payment requirements are used to determine the likelihood of a consumer being able to pay.

Table of Contents
To monitor portfolio performance, we utilize a wide range of internal and external metrics to review user and loan populations. Each week management reviews performance for each customer segment, typically split by ITACs model score, financial product originated, age of loan, and delinquency status. Internal performance trendlines are measured against external factors such as unemployment, CPI, and consumer sentiment to determine what changes, if any, in risk strategy is warranted.

As of March 31, 2023 and June 30, 2022, we were exposed to credit risk on $3.8 billion and $2.5 billion, respectively, of loans held on our interim condensed consolidated balance sheet. Loan receivables are diversified geographically. As of March 31, 2023 and June 30, 2022, approximately 11% and 12% of loan receivables related to customers residing in the state of California, respectively. No other states or provinces exceeded 10%.

We are also exposed to credit risk in the event of nonperformance by the financial institutions holding our cash and the issuers of our cash equivalents and available for sale securities. We maintain our cash deposits and cash equivalents in highly-rated, federally-insured financial institutions in excess of federally insured limits. We manage this risk by conducting business with well established financial institutions, diversifying our counterparties and having guidelines regarding credit rating and investment maturities to safeguard liquidity. Although, we are not substantially dependent on a single financing source and have not historically experienced any credit losses related to these financial institutions, since the beginning of March 2023, there have been public reports of instability at certain financial institutions. If multiple financing sources were to be unable to fulfill their funding obligations to us, it could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and our Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as(as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)Act). Based on that evaluation, our CEO and CFO concluded that such disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Disclosure controls10-Q and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assuranceensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in theour reports that it filesfiled or submitssubmitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the requisite time periods specified in the SEC’sapplicable rules and forms. Disclosure controlsforms, and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the company’sour management, including its principal executiveour CEO and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions,CFO, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives and management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.

Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of March 31, 2022.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during the quarter ended March 31, 20222023 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Inherent Limitation on the Effectiveness of Internal Control

The effectiveness of any system of internal control over financial reporting is subject to inherent limitations, including the exercise of judgment in designing, implementing, operating, and evaluating the controls and procedures, and the inability to eliminate misconduct completely. Accordingly, any system of internal control over financial reporting, no matter how well designed and operated, can only provide reasonable, not absolute assurance that its objectives will be met. In addition, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. We intend to continue to monitor and upgrade our internal controls as necessary or appropriate for our business, but cannot assure you that such improvements will be sufficient to provide us with effective internal control over financial reporting.

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

Please refer to Note 8. “Commitments and Contingencies” of the accompanying notes to our interim condensed consolidated financial statements.

From time to time, we may be subject to other legal proceedings and claims in the ordinary course of business. We are not presently a party to any such other legal proceedings that, if determined adversely to us, would individually or taken together have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition, or cash flows. The results of any current or future litigation cannot be predicted with certainty, and regardless of the outcome, litigation can have an adverse impact on us because of defense and settlement costs, diversion of management resources, and other factors.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

The risks described under the heading “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 20212022 and in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2022 could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations, future prospects, and the trading price of our Class A common stock could decline. ThoseThe risks and uncertainties described therein are not the only ones we face. Additional risks and uncertainties that we face—our operations could also be affected by factors that are not presently known to usunaware of or that we currently consider to bedeem immaterial tomay also become important factors that adversely affect our operations. In addition, youbusiness.

You should carefully read and consider such risks, together with all of the other information in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2021,2022, in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (including the disclosures below, in the section titled “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and in our interim condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes), and in the other documents that we file with the SEC.

Except as may be reflected in the updated risk factors included below, there have been no material changes from the risk factors previously disclosed under the heading “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2021.2022 and in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2022.

If our relationship with Celtic Bank terminates, or if Celtic Bank were to suspend, limit, or cease its operations or loan origination activities for any reason, and we are unable to attract additional merchant partners, retain our existing merchant partners, and grow and develop our relationships with new and existing merchant partners,engage another originating partner on a timely basis or at all, our business, results of operations, financial condition, and future prospects would be materially and adversely affected, as could the market priceaffected.

We believe that one of our Class A common stock.
Our continued successcore competitive advantages, and a core tenet of our platform, is dependent on our ability to expandwork with originating bank partners to use our merchant basedata-driven risk model to enable the effective underwriting of loans facilitated through our platform and to grow our merchants’ revenue on our platform. We derive a significant portion of our revenue from merchant network fees earned from our merchant partners. The network fees are generally charged as a percentageaccurately and effectively price credit risk. Any deterioration in the performance of the transaction volume on our platform. In addition, as more merchants are integrated into our network, there are more reasons for consumers to shop with us.

If we are not able to attract additional merchants and to expand revenue and volume of transactions from existing merchants, we will not be able to continue to attract consumers or grow our business. Our ability to retain and grow our relationships with our merchant partners depends on the willingness of merchants to partner with us. The attractiveness ofloans facilitated through our platform, to merchants depends upon, among other things: the size of our consumer base; our brandor unexpected losses on such loans, would materially and reputation; the amount of merchant fees that we charge; our ability to sustain our value proposition to merchants for customer acquisition by demonstrating higher conversion at checkout and increased AOV; the attractiveness to merchants of our technology and data-driven platform; services and products offered by competitors; and our ability to perform under, and maintain, our merchant agreements. Furthermore, having a diversified mix of merchant partners is important to mitigate risk associated with changing consumer spending behavior, economic conditions and other factors that may affect a particular type of merchant or industry. For example, following the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, our revenue from merchant partners in the travel, hospitality, and entertainment industries declined, but we saw a significant increase in revenue from merchant partners offering home fitness equipment, home office products, and home furnishings. We have begun to see these trends reverse as access to COVID-19 vaccinations has increased, but it is difficult to predict the impact that the continuing spread of the various variants and potential additional waves of the pandemic will have on our merchant partners and our business.

Our continued success also is dependent on our ability to successfully grow and develop relationships with our merchant partners, particularly early-stage relationships with large e-commerce retailers such as Amazon. The pace of development, integration and rollout of these early-stage relationships is often unpredictable and is generally not within our control. Many of our agreements with our merchant partners are non-exclusive and lack any transaction volume commitments. Accordingly, these merchant partners may have, or may enter into in the future, similar agreements with our competitors, which could adversely affect our ability to drive the levelbusiness and results of operations. Loan repayment underperformance would impact our interest-related and gain-on-sale income generated from loans we purchase from our originating bank partners, which are underwritten in accordance with each bank’s credit policy. Additionally, incremental charge-offs may affect future credit decisioning, growth of transaction volume, and revenue growth thatthe amount of provisions for underperforming loans we seekwill need to achieve ortake.

As of the end of the second quarter of fiscal 2023, we relied on Cross River Bank and Celtic Bank to otherwise satisfyoriginate a majority of the high expectationsloans facilitated through our platform and to comply with various federal, state, and other laws, with the balance of the loans facilitated on our investors and financial analysts relating to those relationships. While some ofplatform being originated directly under our agreements with our merchant partners,lending, servicing,

including Amazon, do provideand brokering licenses in Canada and across various states in the United States through our consolidated subsidiaries. During the first half of fiscal 2023, we began accelerating the execution of an existing strategy of identifying and engaging new originating bank partners in order to diversify our sources of loan originations. In January 2023, we made the strategic decision to begin reducing the volume of loans originated by Cross River Bank on our platform while at the same time continuing our ongoing work to identify and engage new originating bank partners. Consequently, as of March 31, 2023, Celtic Bank originates substantially all partner bank originated loans facilitated through our platform. As a result, the risks discussed in the paragraphs below relating to our reliance on Celtic Bank have increased and will remain as such unless and until we complete the process of engaging and onboarding one or more new originating bank partners. The process of engaging and onboarding new originating bank partners is inherently uncertain, and there can be no assurances as to when we will be able to complete that process.

Celtic Bank handles a variety of consumer and commercial financing programs. The Celtic Bank loan program agreement has an initial three-year term, which is scheduled to expire in calendar year 2023. In addition, upon the occurrence of certain early termination events, either we or Celtic Bank may terminate the loan program agreement immediately upon written notice to the other party. Our Celtic Bank loan program agreement does not prohibit Celtic Bank from working with our competitors or from offering competing services, and Celtic Bank currently offers loan programs through other competing platforms. Celtic Bank could decide not to work with us for any reason, could make working with us cost-prohibitive, or could decide to enter into an exclusive or more favorable relationship with one or more of our competitors. In addition, Celtic Bank may not perform as expected under our loan program agreement. We could in the future have disagreements or disputes with Celtic Bank, which could negatively impact or threaten our relationship with other originating banks with whom we may seek to partner. For a periodfurther discussion of exclusivity, those periodsour relationship with Celtic Bank, particularly the regulations applicable to this relationship, see “Business — Regulatory Environment” in the Annual Report on Form 10-K we filed with the SEC on August 29, 2022.

If Celtic Bank were to suspend, limit, or cease its operations or loan origination activities for any reason, or if our relationship with Celtic Bank were to otherwise terminate for any reason (including, but not limited to, its failure to comply with regulatory actions), we may be limited in duration, andneed to implement an additional substantially similar arrangement with another bank, obtain additional state licenses, or curtail our operations. If we need to enter into alternative arrangements with a different bank to replace our existing arrangement, we may not be able to negotiate extensions of those exclusivity periods on reasonable terms, ifa comparable alternative arrangement in a timely manner or at all. In addition, transitioning loan originations to a new bank is untested and may result in delays in the issuance of loans or, if our agreementsplatform becomes inoperable, may result in the inability to facilitate loans through our platform. If we are unable to enter into an alternative arrangement with different banks to fully replace or supplement our merchant partners generally have termsrelationship with Celtic Bank, we would potentially need to obtain additional state licenses to enable us to originate loans directly, as well as comply with other state and federal laws, which would be costly and time consuming, and there can be no assurances that range from approximately 12 months to 36 months, and our merchants can generally terminate these agreements without cause upon 30 to 90 days’ prior written notice. We may, therefore,any such licenses could be compelled to renegotiate our agreements with merchant partners from time to time, possibly upon terms significantly less favorable to us than the terms includedobtained in our existing agreements with those merchant partners.a timely manner or at all.

We rely on a variety of funding sources to support our business model. If our existing funding arrangements are not renewed or replaced or our existing funding sources are unwilling or unable to provide funding to us on terms acceptable to us, or at all, it could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition, cash flows, and future prospects.

Our high-velocity, capital efficient funding model is integral to the success of our commerce platform. To support this model and the growth of our business, we must maintain a variety of funding arrangements, including warehouse facilities, securities repurchase agreements, securitization trusts, and forward flow arrangements with a diverse set of funding sources. If we failare unable to retain anymaintain access to, or to expand, our network and diversity of our larger merchant partners or a substantial number of our smaller merchant partners, if we do not acquire new merchant partners, if we do not successfully grow and develop our relationships with our larger merchant partners, if we do not continually expand revenue and volume from the merchants on our platform, or if we do not attract and retain a diverse mix of merchant partners,funding arrangements, our business, results of operations, financial condition, and future prospects wouldcould be materially and adversely affected. In addition, should investor expectations relating to the growth, development and retention of our merchant partners, particularly those expectations relating to our relationships with Amazon and Shopify Inc., not be achieved, the market price of our Class A common stock could decline.

Risks Related to Our Class A Common Stock

The market price of our Class A common stock has been and mayWe cannot guarantee that these funding arrangements will continue to be volatile, which could causeavailable on favorable terms or at all, and our funding strategy may change over time and depends on the valueavailability of your investment to decline.
The market price of our Class A common stock has been and may continue to be highly volatile and could be subject to wide fluctuations. In addition, the trading volume in our Class A common stock may fluctuate and cause significant price variations to occur. Securities markets worldwide experience significant price and volume fluctuations. This market volatility, as well as general economic, market, and political conditions, could reduce the market price of shares of our Class A common stock in spite of our operating performance.
In addition, our results of operations could be below the expectations of public market analysts and investors due to a number of potential factors, including: variations in our quarterly or annual results of operations; additions or departures of key management personnel; the loss of an originating bank partner or keysuch funding sources or merchants; the growth and development of key merchant partner relationships, including our relationship with Amazon; and changes in our earnings estimates (if provided). Also, the publication of research reports about our industry, litigation and government investigations, changes or proposed changes in laws or regulations or differing interpretations or enforcement thereof affecting our business, adverse market reaction to any indebtedness we may incur or securities we may issue in the future, changes in market valuations of similar companies or speculation in the press or the investment community with respect to us or our industry, adverse announcements by us or others and developments affecting us, announcements by our competitors of significant contracts, acquisitions, dispositions, strategic partnerships, joint ventures or capital commitments, actions by institutional stockholders, and increases in market interest rates that may lead investors in our shares to demand a higher yield, could result in the significant decrease of the market price of shares of our Class A common stock.
These broad market and industry factors may decrease the market price of our Class A common stock, regardless of our actual operating performance. The stock market in general has, from time to time, experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations. In addition, in the past, following periods of volatility in the overall market and the market price of a company’s securities, securities class action litigation has often been instituted against these companies. We are subject to securities litigation, as described further in Note 8. “Commitments and Contingencies” of the accompanying notes to our interim condensed consolidated financial statements and incorporated by reference in Part II, Item 1-Legal Proceedings. This litigation, and any other securities class actions that may be brought against us, could result in substantial costs and a diversion of our management’s attention and resources.

Our amendedSince the beginning of March 2023, there have been public reports of instability at certain financial institutions. Despite the steps taken to date by U.S. and restated certificateforeign agencies and institutions, the follow-on effects of incorporation authorizesthis instability are unknown and may lead to disruptions to the businesses and operations of our funding sources. Although we are not substantially dependent on a single financing source, if multiple financing sources were to be unable to fulfill their funding obligations to us, it could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

In addition, our funding sources may reassess their exposure to our industry and either curtail access to uncommitted financing capacity, fail to renew or extend facilities, or impose higher costs to access our funding. Further, our debt financing and loan sale forward flow facilities are generally fixed term in nature, with term lengths ranging between one to three years, during which we have access to committed capital pursuant to such facilities. If our existing funding arrangements are not renewed or replaced or our existing funding sources are unwilling or unable to provide funding to us on terms acceptable to us, or at all, we would need to secure additional sources of funding or reduce our operations significantly. The availability and diversity of our funding arrangements depends on various factors and are subject to numerous risks, many of which are outside of our control.

The agreements governing our funding arrangements require us to issuecomply with certain covenants. A breach of such covenants or other events of default under our funding agreements could result in the reduction or termination of our access to such funding, could increase our cost of such funding or, in some cases, could give our lenders the right to require repayment of the loans prior to their scheduled maturity. Certain of these covenants are tied to our consumer default rates, which may be significantly affected by factors, such as economic downturns or general economic conditions, that are beyond our control and beyond the control of individual consumers. In addition, our revolving credit facility contains (a) certain covenants and restrictions that limit our and our subsidiaries’ ability to, among other things: incur additional sharesdebt; create liens on certain assets; pay dividends on or make distributions in respect of Class A common stock and rights relating to Class A common stock for the consideration and on the terms and conditions established by our board of directors in its sole discretion, whether in connection with acquisitions or otherwise.

In the future, we may attemptseek to further access the capital markets to obtain financing orcapital to further increasefinance growth. However, our future access to the capital resources by issuing additional sharesmarkets could be restricted due to a variety of factors, including a deterioration of our Class A common stockearnings, cash flows, balance sheet quality, or securities convertible into sharesoverall business or industry prospects, adverse regulatory changes, a disruption to or volatility or deterioration in the state of the capital markets, or a negative bias toward our Class A common stock or offering debt or other securities. We could also issue shares ofindustry by market participants. Due to the negative bias toward our Class A common stock or securities convertible intoindustry, certain financial institutions have restricted access to available financing by participants in our Class A common stock or debt or other securities in connection with acquisitions or other strategic transactions. In addition, as we did when we initially formed our partnership with Shopifyindustry, and when we entered into the Amended and Restated Installment Financing Services Agreement with Amazon, we may issue additional shares of our Class A common stock or securities convertible into shares of Class A common stock as a means of initiating, developing, strengthening or preserving key merchant relationships. Issuing additional shares of our Class A common stock or securities convertible into shares of our Class A common stock or debt orhave more limited access to institutional capital than other securities may dilute the economic and voting rights of our existing stockholders and would likely reduce the market price of our Class A common stock. Upon liquidation, holders of debt securities and preferred shares, if issued, and lenders with respect to other borrowings would receive a distribution on our distributable assets prior to the holders of our common stock. Debt securities convertible into equity securities could be subject to adjustments in the conversion ratio pursuant to which certain events may increase the number of equity securities issuable upon conversion. Preferred shares, if issued, could have a preference with respect to liquidating distribution or preferences with respect to dividend payments that could limit our ability to pay dividends to the holders of our common stock. Our decision to issue securities in any future offering will depend onbusinesses. Future prevailing capital market conditions and other factors beyond our control, whichpotential disruptions in the capital markets may adversely affect the amount, timing, and nature of our future offerings. As a result, holders of our Class A common stock bear the riskefforts to arrange additional financing on terms that our future offerings may reduce the market price of our Class A common stock and dilute their stockholdings in us.

Servicing our debt requires a significant amount of cash, andus, if at all. If adequate funds are not available, or are not available on acceptable terms, we may not have sufficient cash flow fromliquidity to fund our businessoperations, make future investments, take advantage of acquisitions or other opportunities, or respond to pay our substantial debt.
Our ability to make scheduled payments of the principal of, to pay interest on or to refinance our indebtedness, including our 2026 Notes, depends on our future performance, which is subject to economic, financial, competitive challenges and other factors beyond our control. Our business may not continue to generate cash flow from operationsthis, in the future sufficient to service our debt and make necessary capital expenditures. If we are unable to generate such cash flow, we may be required to adopt one or more alternatives, such as selling assets, restructuring debt or obtaining additional equity capital on terms that may be onerous or highly dilutive. Our ability to refinance our indebtedness will depend on the capital markets and our financial condition at such time.We may not be able to engage in any of these activities or engage in these activities on desirable terms, which could result in a default on our debt obligations.

We may not have the ability to raise the funds necessary to settle conversions of the 2026 Notes, to repay the 2026 Notes at maturity or to repurchase the 2026 Notes upon a fundamental change, and our future debt may contain limitations on our ability to pay cash upon conversion or repurchase of the 2026 Notes.

Holders will have the right to require us to repurchase their 2026 Notes upon the occurrence of a fundamental change at a fundamental change repurchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the 2026 Notes to be repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid special interest, if any. In addition, upon conversion of the 2026 Notes, we will be required to make cash payments for each $1,000 in principal amount of 2026 Notes converted of

However, we may not have enough available cash or be able to obtain financing at the time we are required to make repurchases of notes surrendered therefor or pay cash with respect to the 2026 Notes being converted. In addition, our ability to repurchase the 2026 Notes or to pay cash upon conversions of the 2026 Notes may be limited by law, by regulatory authority or by agreements governing our future indebtedness. Our failure to repurchase 2026 Notes at a time when the repurchase is required or to pay any cash payable on future conversions of the 2026 Notes would constitute a default under the indenture governing the 2026 Notes. A default under the indenture governing the 2026 Notes or the fundamental change itself could also lead to a default under agreements governing our future indebtedness. If the repayment of the related indebtedness were to be accelerated after any applicable notice or grace periods, we may not have sufficient funds to repay the indebtedness and repurchase the 2026 Notes or make cash payments upon conversions thereof.

The conditional conversion feature of the 2026 Notes, if triggered, may adversely affect our financial condition and operating results.

In the event the conditional conversion feature of the 2026 Notes is triggered, holders will be entitled to convert their 2026 Notes at any time during specified periods at their option. If one or more holders elect to convert their 2026 Notes, we would be required to settle any converted principal amount of such notes through the payment of cash, whichturn, could adversely affect our liquidity.ability to advance our strategic plans. In addition, even if holdersthe capital and credit markets experience volatility, and the availability of funds is limited, third-parties with whom we do not elect to convert their 2026 Notes, webusiness may incur increased costs or business disruption and this could be required under applicable accounting rules to reclassify all or a portion of the outstanding principal of the 2026 Notes as a current rather than long-term liability, which would result in a material reduction of our net working capital.

The accounting method for reflecting the 2026 Notes on our balance sheet, accruing interest expense for the 2026 Notes and reflecting the underlying shares of our Class A common stock in our reported diluted earnings per share may adversely affect our reported earnings and financial condition.

In August 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board published an Accounting Standards Update,business relationships with such third-parties, which we refer to as ASU 2020-06, which simplifies certain of the accounting standards that apply to convertible notes. ASU 2020-06 will be effective for SEC-reporting entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, including interim periods within those fiscal years. However, early adoption is permitted in certain circumstances for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, including interim periods within those fiscal years. We early adopted ASU 2020-06 effective July 1, 2021 on a modified retrospective basis. The adoption of the new standard did not have any impact on our financial statements as of the adoption date.

In accordance with ASU 2020-06, the 2026 Notes will be reflected as a liability on our balance sheets, with the initial carrying amount equal to the principal amount of the 2026 Notes, net of issuance costs. The issuance costs will be treated as a debt discount for accounting purposes, which will be amortized into other (expense) income, net over the term of the 2026 Notes. As a result of this amortization, the interest expense that we expect to recognize for the 2026 Notes for accounting purposes will be greater than the cash interest payments we will pay on the 2026 Notes, which will result in lower reported income.

In addition, the shares underlying the 2026 Notes are reflected in our diluted earnings per share using the “if converted” method, in accordance with ASU 2020-06. Under that method, if the conversion value of the 2026 Notes exceeds their principal amount for a reporting period, then we will calculate our diluted earnings per share assuming that all of the 2026 Notes were converted at the beginning of the reporting period and that we issued shares of our Class A common stock to settle the excess. However, if reflecting the notes in diluted earnings per share in this manner is anti-dilutive, or if the conversion value of the notes does not exceed their principal amount for a reporting period, then the shares underlying the 2026 Notes will not be reflected in our diluted earnings per share. The application of the if-converted method may reduce our reported diluted earnings per share. We cannot be sure whether other changes may be made to the current accounting standards related to the 2026 Notes, or otherwise, thatturn could have a material adverse effect on our reportedbusiness, results of operations, financial results.condition, cash flows, and future prospects.
