Review of Financial Results for the Fourth Quarter of 2014
Loan originations grew to $369 million during the fourth quarter of 2014, up 120% from the comparable prior year period. Loan growth reflected higher direct marketing investment as well as more effective loan decisioning enabled by the introduction of the fifth generation version of the OnDeck Score.
Gross revenue increased to $50.5 million during the fourth quarter of 2014, up 118% from the comparable prior year period. The increase in gross revenue was primarily due to growth in originations as well as higher average loans outstanding during the fourth quarter of 2014 compared to the prior year period. The effective interest yield for the fourth quarter of 2014 was 38.7%, down from 43.9% in the comparable prior year period, reflecting the mix shift in distribution channels, increase in average term length over the period and OnDeck’s continuing efforts to lower pricing for customers as it achieves cost efficiencies. Reflecting these trends, the average APR of loans originated in the fourth quarter was 51.2%, a decline of over ten percentage points from the prior year period.
| * | See “About Non-GAAP Financial Measures” and “Non-GAAP Reconciliation” below for more information regarding these financial measures which are not prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, or GAAP, and for a reconciliation to the most directly comparable financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. |
Net revenue increased to $25.4 million during the fourth quarter of 2014, up 186% from the comparable prior year period. Net revenue margin increased to 50.3% during the fourth quarter of 2014 from 38.3% in the prior year period, principally due to a lower cost of funds rate and a lower provision rate.
The cost of funds rate during the fourth quarter of 2014 declined to 5.1% of average funding debt, down from 9.9% in the comparable prior year period. The improvement was primarily the result of the company’s continued shift to lower-cost funding sources, including the company’s securitization that closed in the second quarter of 2014.
Provision for loan losses during the fourth quarter of 2014 increased to $20.4 million, up from $10.3 million during the year ago period, primarily as a result of the growth in originations. The provision rate in the fourth quarter of 2014 was 6.7%, compared to 6.9% in the comparable prior year period.
Operating expenses were $27.5 million during the fourth quarter of 2014, up 128% over the comparable prior year period as OnDeck accelerated investment in direct marketing, expanded its technology and analytics teams to support future growth and grew its infrastructure in becoming a public company. Operating expense as a percent of gross revenue for the fourth quarter of 2014 was 54.4%, up from 52.0% during the year ago period, reflecting these investments.
Adjusted EBITDA was a positive $0.6 million in the quarter, an improvement from a loss of $2.1 million in the comparable prior year period.
Adjusted net loss improved to $0.8 million, or $0.01 per share, for the quarter versus a loss of $3.2 million, or $0.74 per share, in the comparable prior year period.
OnDeck reported a GAAP net loss of $4.3 million, or $0.13 per share, for the quarter which included the adverse impact of a $2.1 million non-cash charge related to the increase in fair value of warrants outstanding prior to the IPO. This compares to a GAAP net loss of $5.6 million, or $1.78 per share, in the comparable prior year period.
Review of Financial Results for the Full Year of 2014
Loan originations grew to $1.2 billion in the full year ended December 31, 2014, up 152% from the prior year. Direct and Strategic Partner channel combined originations grew to 59% of origination volume and 70% of units during the year, up from 44% and 54%, respectively, in 2013. Loan growth during the full year reflected higher direct marketing investment as well as more accurate and effective loan decisioning enabled by the introduction of the fifth generation version of the OnDeck Score.
Gross revenue increased to $158.1 million in 2014, up 142% from 2013. The increase in gross revenue was primarily due to increased originations and higher loan balances outstanding in 2014. The effective interest yield was 40.4% for the year, down from 42.7% in 2013, primarily reflecting the mix shift in distribution channels, increase in average term length over the period and OnDeck’s continuing efforts to lower pricing for customers as it achieves cost efficiencies.
Net revenue increased to $73.4 million in 2014, up 191% from the prior year. The net revenue margin grew to 46.5% during the year, up from 38.7% in the prior year, due principally to a lower cost of funds rate.
The cost of funds rate in 2014 declined to 6.2% of average funding debt, down from 10.8% in 2013. The decline was primarily the result of the company’s continued shift to lower-cost funding sources, including the company’s securitization transaction that closed in the second quarter of 2014.
Provision for loan losses in 2014 increased to $67.4 million, up from $26.6 million in 2013, primarily as a result of the growth in originations. The provision rate for 2014 was 6.6%, compared to a provision rate of 6.0% in 2013.
Operating expenses were $80.5 million in 2014, up 81% over 2013 as OnDeck continued to invest in direct marketing and expand its technology and analytics teams to support future growth.
Adjusted EBITDA was a loss of $0.2 million in 2014, an improvement from a loss of $16.3 million in 2013.
Adjusted net loss improved to $4.6 million, or $0.09 per share, in 2014 versus a loss of $20.2 million, or $4.70 per share, in 2013.
OnDeck reported a GAAP net loss of $18.7 million, or $0.60 per share for 2014, which included the adverse impact of an $11.2 million non-cash charge related to the increase in fair value of warrants outstanding prior to the IPO.

Notes:
| 1 | Originations represent the total principal amount of the term loans we made during the period, plus the total amount drawn on lines of credit during the period. Originations exclude any fees paid to us by the customer in connection with the origination of a term loan or maintenance of a line of credit. Many of our repeat customers renew their loans before their existing loan is fully repaid. For originations, such repeat loans are calculated as the full renewal loan principal, rather than the net funded amount, which is the renewal loan’s principal net of the unpaid principal balance on the existing loan. We treat loans referred to, and funded by, our issuing bank partners and later purchased by us as part of our originations. |
| 2 | Unpaid principal balance represents the total amount of principal outstanding for term loans held for investment and amounts outstanding under lines of credit at the end of the period. It excludes net deferred origination costs, allowance for loan losses and any loans sold or held for sale at the end of the period. |
| 3 | Average loans for the period is the simple average of total loans outstanding as of the beginning of the period and as of the end of each quarter in the period. Total loans represents the unpaid principal balance, plus net deferred origination costs. |
| 4 | Loans under management represents the unpaid principal balance plus the amount of principal outstanding for loans held for sale, excluding net deferred origination costs, and the amount of principal outstanding of term loans the company serviced for others, each at the end of the period. |
| 5 | Effective interest yield is the rate of return we achieve on loans outstanding during a period, which is our annualized interest income divided by average loans. Net deferred origination costs in total loans consist of deferred origination fees and costs. Deferred origination fees include fees paid up front by customers when loans are funded and decrease the carrying value of loans, thereby increasing the effective interest yield earned. Deferred origination costs are limited to costs directly attributable to originating loans such as commissions, vendor costs and personnel costs directly related to the time spent by the personnel performing activities related to loan origination and increase the carrying value of loans, thereby decreasing the effective interest yield earned. |
| 6 | Funding debt outstanding is the debt that we use for our lending activities and does not include our corporate operating debt. Average funding debt outstanding for the period is the simple average of the funding debt outstanding as of the beginning of the period and as of the end of each quarter in the period. |
| 7 | Cost of funds rate is our funding cost, which is the interest expense, fees, and amortization of deferred issuance costs we incur in connection with our lending activities across all of our debt facilities, divided by the average funding debt outstanding, then annualized. |
| 8 | Provision rate equals the provision for loan losses divided by the new originations volume of loans held for investment in a period. Because we reserve for probable credit losses inherent in the portfolio upon origination, this rate is significantly impacted by the period’s originations volume. This rate may also be impacted by changes in loss expectations for loans originated prior to the commencement of the period. |
| 9 | Reserve ratio is our allowance for loan losses as of the end of the period divided by the unpaid principal balance as of the end of the period. |
| 10 | 15+ day delinquency ratio equals the aggregate unpaid principal balance for our loans that are 15 or more calendar days past due as of the end of the period as a percentage of the unpaid principal balance for such period. The majority of our loans require daily repayments, excluding weekends and holidays, and therefore may be deemed delinquent more quickly than loans from traditional lenders that require only monthly payments. 15+ day delinquency ratio is not annualized, but reflects balances as of the end of the period. |
| 11 | Due to the uncertainty regarding and variability of certain items that will affect our expected GAAP net loss for the first quarter of 2015 and full year 2015, such as stock-based compensation, warrant revaluation and other items, we are currently unable to provide a reasonable estimate of our GAAP net loss for these future periods or a corresponding reconciliation to GAAP net loss. Our GAAP net loss for these future periods will be less favorable than our Adjusted EBITDA for these periods. |
| 12 | Adjusted EBITDA represents our net income (loss), adjusted to exclude interest expense associated with debt used for corporate purposes (rather than funding costs associated with lending activities), income tax expense, depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation expense and warrant liability fair value adjustment. EBITDA is impacted by changes from period to period in the fair value of the liability related to preferred stock warrants. Management believes that adjusting EBITDA to eliminate the impact of the changes in fair value of these warrants is useful to analyze the operating performance of the business, unaffected by changes in the fair value of preferred stock warrants which are not relevant to the ongoing operations of the business. All such preferred stock warrants converted to common stock warrants upon initial our initial public offering in December 2014. |
| 13 | Adjusted net loss represents our net income (loss) adjusted to exclude stock-based compensation expense and warrant liability fair value adjustment, each on the same basis and with the same limitations as described above for adjusted EBITDA. |
| 14 | Adjusted EPS represents our net income (loss) adjusted to exclude stock-based compensation expense and warrant liability fair value adjustment, each on the same basis and with the same limitations as described above for adjusted EBITDA, divided by the weighted average common shares outstanding during the period. Adjusted EPS does not include the impact of accretion of dividends on redeemable convertible preferred stock or Series A and B preferred stock redemptions. |
| 15 | Number of loans, or units, equals the total number of term loans funded, plus the total number of lines of credit drawn on for the first time during the period. |
| 16 | Many of our repeat customers renew their loans before their existing loan is fully repaid. For originations, such repeat loans are calculated as the full renewal loan principal, rather than the net funded amount, which is the renewal loan’s principal net of the unpaid principal balance on the existing loan. |
