Guidance and outlook
Forward-looking statements, 10-Q filed Nov 5, 2026
- Through our platform, we aim to give consumers control of their spending, ways to save money, and access to responsible credit.
- The following key factors have affected our financial performance and are expected to impact our performance going forward.
- Changes in our consumer base have had, and will continue to have, an impact on our results of operations.
- It is costly for us to acquire consumers; therefore, we aim to provide offerings to our consumers that keep them engaged within our ecosystem, such as our in-app product marketplace, price comparison feature, Payment Streaks, Earn tab, and Sezzle Up.
- High turnover in our consumer base could result in higher than anticipated overhead costs.
- We continue to seek out new partners to adopt our existing products and strategize on new products to complement our platform and core products, which we believe will have an impact on the continued growth of our business.
- We maintain an allowance for credit losses at a level necessary to absorb expected credit losses on notes receivable from consumers.
- The allowance for credit losses is determined based on our current estimate of expected credit losses over the remaining contractual term and incorporates evaluations of known and inherent risks in our portfolio, historical credit losses, and current economic conditions.
- We incur interest expense on a continuous basis as a result of draws on our revolving line of credit to fund consumer notes receivable as well as our Delayed Settlement Incentive Program, whereby merchants may delay their payments owed by us in exchange for daily incentive payments.
- We expect to realize the benefits of this marketing investment in future periods.
- The increase was primarily from higher professional service fees related to the overall growth of the business and investment in Company strategic projects, offset against lower operating costs associated with our loan origination partner funding virtual card transactions.
- We expect that increases in TTV and revenue will likely result in higher absolute amounts of credit losses.
