NOTE 1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The interim unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements contained herein should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes to the consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2024 included in Pathward Financial, Inc.’s ("Pathward Financial" or the “Company") Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on November 26, 2024. Accordingly, footnote disclosures which would substantially duplicate the disclosures contained in the audited consolidated financial statements have been omitted.
The financial information of the Company included herein has been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial reporting and has been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations for reporting on Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Such information reflects all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position and results of operations for the periods presented. The results of the three months ended December 31, 2024 are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2025.
Certain prior fiscal year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year financial statement presentation. These reclassifications did not impact previously reported net income, comprehensive income or the statement of financial condition.
NOTE 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND RECENTLY ADOPTED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS UPDATES ("ASU")
Significant accounting policies in effect and disclosed within the Company’s most recent audited consolidated financial statements as of September 30, 2024 remain substantially unchanged.
The following ASU became effective for the Company on October 1, 2024, and did not have a material impact on the Company’s significant accounting policies or Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements:
ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures. This ASU improves reportable segment disclosures primarily by enhancing disclosure requirements about significant segment expenses and additional interim disclosure requirements. The amendments will first be applied to the Company's annual financial statements for the year ending September 30, 2025 using a retrospective transition method. This ASU impacts disclosure only, and therefore does not have an impact on our consolidated financial statements.
The following ASUs have been issued and are considered applicable to the Company but have not yet been adopted.
ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (ASC 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. This ASU requires enhanced income tax disclosures primarily related to the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid information to provide further transparency surrounding the Company’s income tax position. The amendments in this ASU will be effective for the Company beginning on October 1, 2025. This ASU impacts annual income tax disclosures only. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of such amendments to our Income Tax disclosures.
ASU 2024-03, Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures. This ASU requires entities to disclose specified information about certain costs and expenses within relevant expense captions in both annual and interim financial reporting. If costs and expenses do not fall within one of the disaggregated captions, qualitative description is required. The amendments in this ASU will be effective for the Company beginning October 1, 2027. This ASU impacts disclosure only, and therefore will not impact our consolidated financial statements. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this ASU on required annual and interim disclosures.

The decrease in the fair value of investment securities balances when comparing December 31, 2024 to September 30, 2024 was primarily driven by the sale of $160.1 million debt securities AFS and principal pay downs during the three months. The sale of debt securities AFS in the current period stemmed from the close of the commercial insurance premium finance business sale and associated gain that was recognized. Individual securities were identified for sale upon close of the transaction. At December 31, 2024, there were 163 debt securities AFS in an unrealized loss position. Management assessed each investment security with unrealized losses for credit loss by evaluating qualitative factors, including materiality of loss position as a percentage of book value, credit ratings, outstanding principal and interest payments, and changes in the underlying implicit or explicit guarantee of the security, and determined all unrealized losses on these securities were due to adverse market conditions and/or change in interest rates versus credit loss. As part of that assessment, management evaluated and concluded that it is more-likely-than-not that the Company will not be required and does not intend to sell any of the securities prior to recovery of the amortized cost. At December 31, 2024, there was no allowance for credit losses ("ACL") for debt securities AFS.

The amortized cost and fair value of debt securities by contractual maturity are shown below. Certain securities have call features which allow the issuer to call the security prior to maturity. Expected maturities may differ from contractual maturities in MBS because borrowers may have the right to call or prepay obligations with or without call or prepayment penalties. Therefore, MBS are not included in the maturity categories in the following maturity summary. The expected maturities of certain SBA securities may differ from contractual maturities because the borrowers may have the right to prepay the obligation. However, certain prepayment penalties may apply.

Federal Reserve Bank ("FRB") Stock. The Bank is required by federal law to subscribe to capital stock (divided into shares of $100 each) as a member of the FRB of Minneapolis with an amount equal to six per centum of the paid-up capital stock and surplus. One-half of the subscription is paid at time of application, and one-half is subject to call of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System. FRB of Minneapolis stock held by the Bank totaled $19.7 million at December 31, 2024 and September 30, 2024. These equity securities are 'restricted' in that they can only be owned by member banks.
Federal Home Loan Bank ("FHLB") Stock. The Company's borrowings from the FHLB are secured by specific investment securities. Such advances can be made pursuant to several different credit programs, each of which has its own interest rate and range of maturities.
The investments in the FHLB stock are required investments related to the Company's membership in and current borrowings from the FHLB of Des Moines. The investments in the FHLB of Des Moines could be adversely impacted by the financial operations of the FHLB and actions of their regulator, the Federal Housing Finance Agency.
The FHLB stock is carried at cost since it is generally redeemable at par value. The carrying value of the stock held at the FHLB was $4.8 million and $16.3 million at December 31, 2024 and at September 30, 2024, respectively.
These equity securities are ‘restricted’ in that they can only be sold back to the respective institution from which they were acquired or another member institution at par. Therefore, FRB and FHLB stocks are less liquid than other marketable equity securities, and the cost approximates fair value.
Equity Securities. The Company held $3.6 million and $3.3 million in marketable equity securities within other assets on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition at December 31, 2024 and September 30, 2024, respectively. The Company recognized $0.1 million unrealized losses and $0.1 million unrealized gains on marketable equity securities during the three months ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. No such securities were sold during the three months ended December 31, 2024.

Non-marketable equity securities with a readily determinable fair value totaled $11.9 million and $11.8 million at December 31, 2024 and September 30, 2024, respectively. These securities are held within other assets on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition. The Company recognized $0.3 million in unrealized gains during the three months ended December 31, 2024 and 2023. No such securities were sold during the three months ended December 31, 2024.
Non-marketable equity securities without readily determinable fair value totaled $14.1 million and $13.6 million at December 31, 2024 and September 30, 2024, respectively, reflecting Company ownership interests in other entities through its Pathward Venture Capital, LLC, a wholly-owned service corporation subsidiary of the Bank that was formed in 2017 for the purpose of making minority equity investments and other corporate investments. During the quarter ended December 31, 2024, the Company recognized a $0.4 million gain on Visa shares, which is included in gain on sale of other on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations, carried at a cost basis of $0. There was no additional such security sold during the three months ended December 31, 2024.
Equity Securities Impairment. The Company evaluates impairment for investments held at cost on at least an annual basis based on the ultimate recoverability of the par value. All other equity investments, including those under the equity method, are reviewed for other-than-temporary impairment on at least a quarterly basis. The Company recognized no impairment for such investments for the three months ended December 31, 2024 and 2023.

A number of factors that affected the economic environment in 2023 continued throughout 2024 including geopolitical conflict, supply chain disruptions, inflation, and increased interest rates, with the Federal Reserve beginning to lower the target federal funds rate at the end of 2024. The 2023 bank failures that were brought on by, among other things, rising interest rates, deposit outflows and liquidity crises also continued to impact the banking industry. Management continues to evaluate the loan and lease portfolio in order to assess the impact on repayment sources and underlying collateral that could result in additional losses and the impact to our customers and businesses as a result of these factors impacting the economy and will refine its estimate as developments occur and more information becomes available.

(1) For commercial finance, collateral dependent financial assets have collateral in the form of cash, equipment, or other business assets.

Management has identified certain structured finance credits for alternative energy projects in which a substantial cash collateral account has been established to mitigate credit risk. Due to the nature of the transactions and significant cash collateral positions, these credits are evaluated individually. The balance of these pass rated cash collateral loans totaled $116.4 million and $105.1 million at December 31, 2024 and at September 30, 2024, respectively.
Federal regulations provide for the classification of loans and other assets such as debt and equity securities considered by the Bank's primary regulator, the OCC, to be of lesser quality as “substandard,” “doubtful” or “loss.” The loan classification and risk rating definitions are as follows:
Pass - A pass asset is of sufficient quality in terms of repayment, collateral and management to preclude a special mention or an adverse rating.
Watch - A watch asset is generally a credit performing well under current terms and conditions but with identifiable weakness meriting additional scrutiny and corrective measures. Watch is not a regulatory classification but can be used to designate assets that are exhibiting one or more weaknesses that deserve management’s attention. These assets are of better quality than special mention assets.
Special Mention - A special mention asset is a credit with potential weaknesses deserving management’s close attention and, if left uncorrected, may result in deterioration of the repayment prospects for the asset. Special mention assets are not adversely classified and do not expose an institution to sufficient risk to warrant adverse classification. Special mention is a temporary status with aggressive credit management required to garner adequate progress and move to watch or higher.
The adverse classifications are as follows:
Substandard - A substandard asset is inadequately protected by the net worth and/or repayment ability or by a weak collateral position. Assets so classified will have well-defined weaknesses creating a distinct possibility the Bank will sustain some loss if the weaknesses are not corrected. Loss potential does not have to exist for an asset to be classified as substandard.
Doubtful - A doubtful asset has weaknesses similar to those classified substandard, with the degree of weakness causing the likely loss of some principal in any reasonable collection effort. Due to pending factors, the asset’s classification as loss is not yet appropriate.
Loss - A loss asset is considered uncollectible and of such little value that the asset’s continuance on the Bank’s balance sheet is no longer warranted. This classification does not necessarily mean an asset has no recovery or salvage value leaving room for future collection efforts.
Loans and leases, or portions thereof, are generally charged off when collection of principal becomes doubtful. Typically, this is associated with a delay or shortfall in payments of 120 days or more for consumer credit products and leases, and 90 days or more for commercial finance loans. Action is taken to charge off electronic return originator ("ERO") loans if such loans have not been collected by the end of June and refund advance loans if such loans have not been collected by the end of the calendar year. The Company individually evaluates loans and leases that do not share similar risk characteristics with other financial assets, which generally means loans and leases identified as modifications or loans and leases on nonaccrual status.

Table of Contents
The Company recognizes that concentrations of credit may naturally occur and may take the form of a large volume of related loans and leases to an individual, a specific industry, or a geographic location. Credit concentration is a direct, indirect, or contingent obligation that has a common bond where the aggregate exposure equals or exceeds a certain percentage of the Company’s Tier 1 Capital plus the allowable Allowance for Credit Losses.
The Company has various portfolios of consumer finance and tax services loans that present unique risks that are statistically managed. Due to the unique risks associated with these portfolios, the Company monitors other credit quality indicators in its evaluation of the appropriateness of the ACL on these portfolios, and as such, these loans are not included in the asset classification table below. The outstanding balances of consumer finance loans and tax services loans were $280.0 million and $45.1 million at December 31, 2024, respectively, and $248.8 million and $8.8 million at September 30, 2024, respectively. The amortized cost basis of loans and leases by asset classification and year of origination was as follows:

NOTE 6. EARNINGS PER COMMON SHARE ("EPS")
The Company has granted restricted share awards with dividend rights that are considered to be participating securities. Accordingly, a portion of the Company’s earnings is allocated to those participating securities in the earnings per share calculation under the two-class method. Basic EPS is computed using the two-class method by dividing income available to common stockholders after the allocation of dividends and undistributed earnings to the participating securities by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS is calculated using the more dilutive of the two-class method or the treasury stock method. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised, and is computed after giving consideration to the weighted average dilutive effect upon vesting of performance share units ("PSUs") and restricted stock grants, and after the allocation of earnings to the participating securities. Antidilutive securities are disregarded in earnings per share calculations. Diluted EPS shown below reflects the two-class method, as diluted EPS under the two-class method was more dilutive than under the treasury stock method.
A reconciliation of net income and common stock share amounts used in the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share is presented below.

NOTE 9. OPERATING LEASE RIGHT-OF-USE ASSETS AND LIABILITIES
Operating lease right-of-use ("ROU") assets, included in other assets, were $22.6 million and $24.4 million at December 31, 2024 and September 30, 2024, respectively.
Operating lease liabilities, included in accrued expenses and other liabilities, were $23.8 million and $26.0 million at December 31, 2024 and September 30, 2024, respectively.

Table of Contents
The decreases in lease ROU assets and liabilities relate to normal amortization and lease payments made during the three months ended December 31, 2024, but also include adjustments for lease assignments that occurred as a result of the commercial insurance premium finance business sale during the quarter. Two office locations, Newport Beach, California and Addison, Texas, were included in the sale of the commercial insurance premium finance business and the relevant lease ROU assets and liabilities are no longer reflected in the Company's Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements after the transaction closed. The derecognition of the relevant lease ROU assets and liabilities resulted in a $0.5 million gain on remeasurement that was recognized as part of the overall gain on divestitures from the commercial insurance premium finance business sale. See Note 3. Divestitures to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further information.

On February 27, 2024, the shareholders of the Company voted to approve the Pathward Financial, Inc. 2023 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the "Plan"). The Plan permits the granting of various types of awards including but not limited to nonvested (restricted) shares and PSUs to certain officers and directors of the Company. Awards may be granted by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors based on the performance of the award recipients or other relevant factors.
Shares have previously been granted each year to executives and senior leadership members under the applicable Company incentive plan. These shares vest at various times ranging from immediately to three years based on circumstances at time of grant. The fair value is determined based on the fair market value of the Company’s stock on the grant date. Director shares are issued to the Company’s directors, and these shares have historically vested from immediately to up to one year from the grant date.
The Company also grants selected executives PSU awards. The vesting of these awards is contingent on meeting company-wide performance goals, including earnings per share. PSUs are generally granted at the market value of the underlying share on the date of grant, adjusted for dividends, as PSUs do not participate in dividends. The awards contingently vest over a period of three years and have payout levels ranging from a threshold of 50% to a maximum of 200%. Upon vesting, each PSU earned is converted into one share of common stock.
The fair value of the PSUs is determined by the dividend-adjusted fair value on the grant date for those awards subject to a performance condition. For those PSUs subject to a market condition, a simulation valuation is performed.
In addition, during the first and second quarters of fiscal year 2017, shares were granted to certain executive officers of the Company in connection with their signing of employment agreements with the Company. These stock awards vest in equal installments over eight years.

PSUs outstanding, December 31, 2024 | 141,294 |  | $ | 52.42 |

Compensation expense for share-based awards is recorded over the vesting period at the fair value of the award at the time of the grant. The exercise price of fair value of nonvested (restricted) shares and PSUs granted under the Company’s incentive plans is equal to the fair market value of the underlying stock at the grant date, adjusted for dividends where applicable. The Company has elected to record forfeitures as they occur.
As of December 31, 2024, stock-based compensation expense not yet recognized in income totaled $13.7 million, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted average remaining period of 1.95 years.
NOTE 12. INCOME TAXES
The Company recorded an income tax expense of $6.3 million for the three months ended December 31, 2024, resulting in an effective tax rate of 16.60%, compared to an income tax expense of $5.7 million, or an effective tax rate of 17.00%, for the three months ended December 31, 2023. The Company’s effective tax rate was lower than the U.S. statutory rate of 21% primarily because of the effect of investment tax credits during fiscal year 2025. The Company's effective tax rate in the future will depend in part on actual investment tax credits generated from qualified renewable energy property.

The scope of Topic 606 explicitly excludes net interest income as well as many other revenues for financial assets and liabilities, including loans, leases, and securities.

Following is a discussion of key revenues within the scope of Topic 606. The Company provides services to customers that have related performance obligations that must be completed to recognize revenue. Revenues are generally recognized immediately upon the completion of the service or over time as services are performed. Any services performed over time generally require that the Company renders services each period; therefore, the Company measures progress in completing these services based upon the passage of time. Revenue from contracts with customers did not generate significant contract assets and liabilities for the three months ended December 31, 2024.

Refund Transfer Product Fees. Refund transfer fees are specific to the Partner Solutions business line and reflect product fees offered by the Company through third-party tax preparers and tax preparation software providers where the Company acts as the partnering financial institution. A refund transfer allows a taxpayer to pay tax preparation and filing fees directly from their federal or state government tax refund, with the remainder of the refund being disbursed in accordance with the terms and conditions of the taxpayer agreement, which may include satisfaction of other disbursement obligations before going directly to the taxpayer via check, direct deposit, or prepaid card. Refund transfer fees are recognized by the Company immediately after the taxpayer's refund has been disbursed in accordance with the contract and are based on standalone pricing included within the terms and conditions. Certain expenses to tax preparation software providers are netted with refund transfer fee income as the Company is considered the agent in these contractual relationships. All refund transfer fees are recorded within the Consumer reporting segment.
Card and Deposit Fees. Card fees relate to the Partner Solutions business line and consist of income from prepaid cards and merchant services, including interchange fees from prepaid cards processed through card association networks, merchant services and other card related services. Interchange rates are generally set by card association networks based on transaction volume and other factors. Since interchange fees are generated by cardholder activity, the Company recognizes the income as transactions occur. Fee income for merchant services and other card related services reflect account management and transaction fees charged to merchants for processing card association network transactions. The associated income is recognized as transactions occur or as services are performed. For the Company's internally managed prepaid card programs, fees are based on standalone pricing within the terms and conditions of the cardholder agreement. The Company is considered the principal of these relationships resulting in all fee income being presented on a gross basis within the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations. For the Company's sponsorship prepaid card programs where a third-party is considered the Program Manager, the fees are based on standalone pricing within the terms and conditions of the Program Agreement. For these relationships, the Company is considered the agent and certain expenses with the Program Manager, networks and associations are netted with card fee revenue. All card fee income is included in the Consumer reporting segment.
Deposit fees relate to the Partner Solutions and Commercial Finance business lines and consist of income from banking and deposit-related services, including account services, overdraft protection, and wire transfers. Fee income for account services is recognized over the course of the month as the performance obligation is satisfied. Fee income for overdraft protection and wire transfers is recognized at the point in time when such event occurs. For partner solutions, the fees for account services and overdraft protection are based on standalone pricing within the terms and conditions of the Program Agreement with the sponsorship partner. For these relationships, the Company is considered the agent and certain expenses with the partner are netted with deposit fee revenue. For Commercial Finance, fees for wire transfers are based on standalone pricing within the terms and conditions of the customer deposit agreement. Bank and deposit fees for the Partner Solutions and Commercial Finance business lines are included in the Consumer and Commercial reporting segments, respectively. Also included within Card and Deposit Fees for the Consumer reporting segment are servicing fees the Company recognizes for off-balance sheet custodial deposits. This fee income is for services the Bank performs to maintain records of cardholder funds placed at one or more third-party banks insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC"). The servicing fee is typically reflective of the effective federal funds rate ("EFFR").
NOTE 14. SEGMENT REPORTING
An operating segment is generally defined as a component of a business for which discrete financial information is available and whose results are reviewed by the chief operating decision-maker. Operating segments are aggregated into reportable segments if certain criteria are met.
The Company reports its results of operations through the following three business segments: Consumer, Commercial, and Corporate Services/Other. The Partner Solutions business line is reported in the Consumer segment. The Commercial Finance business line is reported in the Commercial segment. The Corporate Services/Other segment includes certain shared services as well as treasury related functions such as the investment portfolio, warehouse finance, wholesale deposits, and borrowings.

NOTE 15. FAIR VALUES OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring the fair value of assets and liabilities using a hierarchy system and requires disclosures about fair value measurement. It clarifies that fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants in the market in which the reporting entity transacts.
The fair value hierarchy is as follows:
Level 1 Inputs - Valuation is based upon quoted prices for identical instruments traded in active markets that the Company has the ability to access at measurement date.
Level 2 Inputs - Valuation is based upon quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active and model-based valuation techniques for which significant assumptions are observable in the market.
Level 3 Inputs - Valuation is generated from model-based techniques that use significant assumptions not observable in the market and are used only to the extent that observable inputs are not available. These unobservable assumptions reflect the Company’s own estimates of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.
Debt Securities AFS and HTM. Debt securities AFS are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis and debt securities HTM are carried at amortized cost.
The fair value of debt securities AFS, categorized primarily as Level 2, is recorded using prices obtained from independent asset pricing services that are based on observable transactions, but not quoted markets. Management reviews the prices obtained from independent asset pricing services for unusual fluctuations and compares to current market trading activity.
Equity Securities. Marketable equity securities and certain non-marketable equity securities are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis. The fair values of marketable equity securities are determined by obtaining quoted prices on nationally recognized securities exchanges (Level 1 inputs).

Loans and Leases. The Company does not record loans and leases at fair value on a recurring basis. However, if a loan or lease is individually evaluated for risk of credit loss and repayment is expected to be solely provided by the values of the underlying collateral, the Company measures fair value on a nonrecurring basis. Fair value is determined by the fair value of the underlying collateral less estimated costs to sell. The fair value of the collateral is determined based on the internal estimates and/or assessment provided by third-party appraisers and the valuation relies on discount rates ranging from 3% to 45%.

(1) The Company generally relies on external appraisers to develop this information. Management reduced the appraised value by estimating selling costs and other inputs in a range of 3% to 45%.
Management discloses the estimated fair value of financial instruments, including assets and liabilities on and off the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition, for which it is practicable to estimate fair value. These fair value estimates were made at December 31, 2024 and September 30, 2024 based on relevant market information and information about financial instruments. Fair value estimates are intended to represent the price at which an asset could be sold or a liability could be settled. However, since there is no active market for certain financial instruments of the Company, the estimates of fair value are subjective in nature, involve uncertainties, and include matters of significant judgment. Changes in assumptions as well as tax considerations could significantly affect the estimated values. Accordingly, the aggregate fair value estimates are not intended to represent the underlying value of the Company, on either a going concern or a liquidation basis.

This discussion should be read in conjunction with the Company’s consolidated financial statements, and notes thereto, for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2024 and the related management's discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations contained in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2024.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Company Highlights and Business Developments
•On October 31, 2024, Pathward®, N.A. completed the sale of substantially all of the assets and liabilities related to the Bank's commercial insurance premium finance business. The purchase price was $603.3 million, plus a $31.2 million premium. The Bank recorded a $16.4 million pre-tax gain on the sale.
•On November 30, 2024, the Bank sold $160.1 million of debt securities AFS with a pre-tax loss on the sale of securities of $15.7 million. This loss largely offsets the gain from the sale of the commercial insurance premium finance business.
Financial Highlights for the 2025 Fiscal First Quarter
•Total revenue for the first quarter was $173.5 million, an increase of $10.7 million, or 7%, compared to the same quarter in fiscal 2024, driven by an increase in both net interest income and noninterest income.
•Net interest margin ("NIM") increased 61 basis points to 6.84% for the first quarter from 6.23% during the same period of last year, primarily driven by increased yields and balances in the loan and lease portfolio and an improved earnings asset mix from the continued balance sheet optimization.
•Total gross loans and leases at December 31, 2024 increased $136.4 million to $4.56 billion compared to December 31, 2023 and increased $487.5 million when compared to September 30, 2024. When excluding the insurance premium finance loans of $671.0 million at December 31, 2023, total gross loans and leases at December 31, 2024 increased $807.4 million, or 22%, when compared to December 31, 2023.
•During the 2025 fiscal first quarter, the Company repurchased 701,860 shares of common stock at an average share price of $74.05. As of December 31, 2024, there were 6,298,140 shares available for repurchase under the current common stock share repurchase program.
FINANCIAL CONDITION
At December 31, 2024, the Company’s total assets increased slightly to $7.62 billion compared to $7.55 billion at September 30, 2024, primarily due to growth of $487.5 million in loans and leases, $439.1 million in cash and cash equivalents, and $48.6 million in other assets, partially offset by reductions of $616.2 million in loans held for sale, $261.1 million in securities AFS, and $13.0 million in goodwill and intangible assets.

Table of Contents
Total cash and cash equivalents were $597.4 million at December 31, 2024, increasing from $158.3 million at September 30, 2024. The increase is primarily due to the proceeds from the sale of the commercial insurance premium finance business, net transaction costs, and the sale of debt securities AFS, partially offset by the repayment of short-term borrowings during the three months ended December 31, 2024. The Company maintains its cash investments primarily in interest-bearing overnight deposits with the FHLB of Des Moines and the FRB. At December 31, 2024, the Company did not have any federal funds sold.
The Company's investment security balances at December 31, 2024 totaled $1.51 billion, as compared to $1.77 billion at September 30, 2024. The decrease is primarily due to $160.1 million of debt securities AFS sold by the Bank during the three months ended December 31, 2024. The Company’s portfolio of securities customarily consists primarily of MBS, which have expected lives much shorter than the stated final maturity, non-bank qualified obligations of states and political subdivisions, which mature in approximately 15 years or less, and other tax exempt municipal mortgage related pass through securities which have average lives much shorter than their stated final maturities. During the three months ended December 31, 2024, the Company made $1.2 million of purchases of investment securities.
Through the Bank, the Company owns stock in the FHLB due to the Bank’s membership and participation in this banking system as well as stock in the FRB. The FHLB requires a level of stock investment based on a pre-determined formula. The Company’s investment in these stocks was $24.5 million at December 31, 2024 and $36.0 million at September 30, 2024, as redemptions were partially offset by purchases of FHLB membership stock during the three months ended December 31, 2024.
Loans held for sale at December 31, 2024 totaled $72.6 million, decreasing from $688.9 million at September 30, 2024. This decrease was primarily driven by the sale of the commercial insurance premium finance loans and a reduction in SBA/USDA held for sale, partially offset by growth in consumer credit products held for sale at December 31, 2024 compared to September 30, 2024.
Total gross loans and leases totaled $4.56 billion at December 31, 2024, as compared to $4.08 billion at September 30, 2024. The increase was due to growth across all loan portfolios. See Note 5. Loans and Leases, Net to the “Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements” of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Commercial finance loans, which comprised 79% of the Company's loan and lease portfolio, totaled $3.62 billion at December 31, 2024, reflecting an increase of $321.0 million, 10%, from September 30, 2024. The increase was primarily driven by increases of $180.9 million in term lending and $136.4 million in asset-based lending.
Total end-of-period deposits increased 11% to $6.52 billion at December 31, 2024, compared to $5.88 billion at September 30, 2024, primarily driven by an increase in noninterest-bearing deposits of $666.8 million, partially offset by a decrease in wholesale deposits of $25.0 million.
As of December 31, 2024, the Company had $416.1 million in deposits related to government stimulus programs.
The Company's total borrowings decreased from $410.4 million at September 30, 2024 to $33.4 million at December 31, 2024, primarily driven by a decrease in short-term borrowings of $377.0 million as the Company used the increase in total deposits to fund loans and leases and investment balances. The Company's short-term borrowings fluctuate on a daily basis due to the nature of a portion of its noninterest-bearing deposit base.
At December 31, 2024, the Company’s stockholders’ equity totaled $776.4 million, a decrease of $63.2 million, from $839.6 million at September 30, 2024. The decrease was primarily attributable to an increase in accumulated other comprehensive loss and a decrease in retained earnings. The Company and Bank remained above the federal regulatory minimum capital requirements at December 31, 2024, and continued to be classified as well-capitalized, and in good standing with the regulatory agencies. See “Liquidity and Capital Resources” for further information.

Noninterest-bearing Checking Deposits. The Company may hold negative balances associated with cardholder programs in the Partner Solutions business line that are included within noninterest-bearing deposits on the Company's Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition. Negative balances can relate to any of the following payments functions:
–Prefundings: The Company deploys funds to cards prior to receiving cash (typically 2-3 days) where the prefunding balance is netted at a pooled partner level utilizing ASC 210-20.
–Discount fundings: The Company funds cards in alignment to expected breakage values on the card. Consumers may spend more than is estimated. These discounts are netted at a pooled partner level using ASC 210-20. The majority of these discount fundings relate to a small number of partners and are analyzed on an ongoing basis.
–Demand Deposit Account ("DDA") overdrafts: Certain programs offered allow cardholders traditional DDA overdraft protection services whereby cardholders can spend a limited amount in excess of their available card balance. When overdrawn, these accounts are re-classed as loans on the balance sheet within the Consumer Finance category.
The Company meets the Right of Set off criteria in ASC 210-20, Balance Sheet - Offsetting, for all payments negative deposit balances with the exception of DDA overdrafts. The following table summarizes the Company's negative deposit balances within the Partner Solutions business line:

Off-Balance Sheet Custodial Deposits. The Bank utilizes a custodial deposit transference structure for certain prepaid and deposit programs whereby the Bank, acting as custodian of cardholder funds, places a portion of such cardholder funds that are not needed to support near term settlement at one or more third-party banks insured by the FDIC (each, a “Program Bank”). Accounts opened at Program Banks are established in the Bank’s name as custodian, for the benefit of the Bank’s cardholders. The Bank remains the issuer of all cards and holder of all accounts under the applicable cardholder agreements and has sole custodial control and transaction authority over the accounts opened at Program Banks.
The Bank maintains the records of each cardholder’s deposits maintained at Program Banks. Program Banks undergo robust due diligence prior to becoming a Program Bank and are also subject to continuous monitoring.
As of December 31, 2024, the Company managed $840.5 million of customer deposits at other banks in its capacity as custodian. These deposits provide the Company with the ability to earn servicing fee income, typically reflective of the EFFR.

(2) Net interest margin expressed on a fully-taxable-equivalent basis ("net interest margin, tax-equivalent") is a non-GAAP financial measure. The tax-equivalent adjustment to net interest income recognizes the estimated income tax savings when comparing taxable and tax-exempt assets and adjusting for federal and state exemption of interest income. The Company believes that it is a standard practice in the banking industry to present net interest margin expressed on a fully taxable equivalent basis and, accordingly, believes the presentation of this non-GAAP financial measure may be useful for peer comparison purposes.

Table of Contents
General
The Company recorded net income of $31.4 million, or $1.29 per diluted share, for the three months ended December 31, 2024, compared to net income of $27.7 million, or $1.06 per diluted share, for the three months ended December 31, 2023.
Net Interest Income
Net interest income for the first quarter of fiscal 2025 was $116.1 million, an increase of 6% from the same quarter in fiscal 2024. The increase was mainly attributable to increased yields and balances in the loan and lease portfolio and an improved earning asset mix.
The Company’s average interest-earning assets for the first quarter of fiscal 2025 decreased by $296.0 million to $6.74 billion compared to the same quarter in fiscal 2024, due to decreases in average outstanding balances of total investments and interest earning cash balances, partially offset by an increase in total loan and lease balances. The first quarter average outstanding balance of loans and leases increased $107.6 million compared to the same quarter of the prior fiscal year, primarily due to increases in warehouse finance and tax services loans, partially offset by decreases in commercial finance and consumer finance loans. The decrease in the average outstanding balance of commercial finance loans and leases was primarily driven by the sale of the insurance premium finance loans, partially offset by an increase in term lending, asset-based lending, and SBA/USDA loans.
Fiscal 2025 first quarter NIM increased to 6.84% from 6.23% in the first fiscal quarter of 2024. The overall reported tax-equivalent yield (“TEY”) on average interest-earning assets increased 47 basis points to 7.04% compared to the prior year quarter, driven by an improved earning asset mix. The yield on the loan and lease portfolio was 8.78% compared to 8.33% for the comparable period last year and the TEY on the securities portfolio was 3.10% compared to 3.15% over that same period.
The Company's cost of funds for all deposits and borrowings averaged 0.20% during the fiscal 2025 first quarter, as compared to 0.35% during the prior year quarter. The Company's overall cost of deposits was 0.05% in the fiscal first quarter of 2025, as compared to 0.21% during the prior year quarter.
Provision for Credit Loss
The Company recognized a provision for credit losses of $12.0 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2024, compared to $9.9 million for the comparable period in the prior fiscal year. The period-over-p eriod increase in provision for credit losses was primarily due to increases in provision for credit losses in the commercial finance portfolio of $1.9 million, the consumer finance portfolio of $0.7 million, and the warehouse finance portfolio of $0.1 million, partially offset by a decrease of $0.1 million in provision for credit losses tax services portfolio. The Company recognized net charge-offs of $8.6 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2024, compared to net charge-offs of $5.5 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2023. Net charge-offs attributable to the commercial finance and seasonal tax services portfolios for the current quarter were $8.1 million and $0.5 million, respectively. Net charge-offs attributable to the commercial finance, tax services, and consumer finance portfolios for the same quarter of the prior year were $4.6 million, $0.8 million, and $0.1 million, respectively.
Noninterest Income
Fiscal 2025 first quarter noninterest income increased 9% to $57.4 million, compared to $52.8 million for the same period of the prior year. During the first fiscal quarter of 2025, the Company recognized a gain on divestiture of $16.4 million from the sale of its commercial insurance premium finance business. This gain on divestiture was largely offset by a loss on sale of securities of $15.7 million also recognized during the current quarter. The increase in noninterest income when comparing the current period to the same period of the prior year was primarily driven by an increase in gain on sale of loans and leases, other income, tax services product fees, and rental income. The period-over-period increase was partially offset by a decrease in card and deposit fees and a reduction in gain on sale of other. The increase in gain on sale of loans was primarily driven by SBA/USDA loan sales.
The period-over-period decrease in card and deposit fee income was primarily related to lower servicing fee income due to a reduction in rates following reductions in the EFFR. Servicing fee income on custodial deposits totaled $4.5 million during the 2025 fiscal first quarter, compared to $5.1 million for the same period of the prior year. For the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2024, servicing fee income on custodial deposits totaled $3.2 million.

Noninterest Expense
Noninterest expense increased 4% to $123.6 million for the fiscal 2025 first quarter, from $119.3 million for the same quarter last year. The increase was primarily attributable to increases in compensation and benefits, operating lease depreciation, occupancy and equipment expense, other expense, and legal and consulting expense. The period-over-period increase was partially offset by decreases in card processing expense.
The card processing expense decrease was due to rate-related agreements with Partner Solutions relationships. The amount of expense paid under those agreements is based on an agreed upon rate index that varies depending on the deposit levels, floor rates, market conditions, and other performance conditions. Generally, this rate index is based on a percentage of the EFFR and reprices immediately upon a change in the EFFR. Approximately 60% of the deposit portfolio was subject to these rate-related processing expenses during the fiscal 2025 first quarter. For the fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2024, contractual, rate-related processing expenses were $25.6 million, as compared to $26.3 million for the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2024 and $26.8 million for the fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2023.
Income Tax Expense
The Company recorded income tax expense of $6.3 million, representing an effective tax rate of 16.6%, for the fiscal 2025 first quarter, compared to an income tax expense of $5.7 million, representing an effective tax rate of 17.0%, for the first quarter last fiscal year. The current quarter increase in income tax expense compared to the prior year quarter was primarily due to an increase in income and a decrease in investment tax credits.
The Company originated $9.3 million in renewable energy leases during the fiscal 2025 first quarter, resulting in $3.2 million in total net investment tax credits. During the first quarter of fiscal 2024, the Company originated $12.2 million in renewable energy leases resulting in $4.4 million in total net investment tax credits. Investment tax credits related to renewable energy leases are recognized ratably based on income throughout each fiscal year.
Asset Quality
Generally, when a loan or lease becomes delinquent 90 days or more or when the collection of principal or interest becomes doubtful, the Company will place the loan or lease on a nonaccrual status and, as a result, previously accrued interest income on the loan or lease is reversed against current income. The loan or lease will generally remain on a non-accrual status until six months of good payment history has been established or management believes the financial status of the borrower has been significantly restored. Certain relationships in the table below are over 90 days past due and still accruing. The Company considers these relationships as being in the process of collection. Insurance premium finance loans, consumer finance and tax services loans are generally not placed on nonaccrual status, but are instead written off when the collection of principal and interest become doubtful.
Loans and leases, or portions thereof, are generally charged-off when collection of principal becomes doubtful. Typically, this is associated with a delay or shortfall in payments of 120 days or more for consumer credit products and leases and 90 days or more for commercial finance loans. Action is taken to charge off ERO loans if such loans have not been collected by the end of June and refund advance loans if such loans have not been collected by the end of the calendar year. The Company individually evaluates loans and leases that do not share similar risk characteristics with other financial assets, which generally means loans and leases identified as modifications or loans and leases on nonaccrual status.
The Company believes that the level of allowance for credit losses at December 31, 2024 was appropriate and reflected probable losses related to these loans and leases; however, there can be no assurance that all loans and leases will be fully collectible or that the present level of the allowance will be adequate in the future. See the section below titled “Allowance for Credit Losses” for further information.

The Company's nonperforming assets at December 31, 2024 were $37.5 million, representing 0.49% of total assets, compared to $43.0 million, or 0.57% of total assets at September 30, 2024. The decrease in the nonperforming assets as a percentage of total assets at December 31, 2024 compared to September 30, 2024, was primarily driven by a decrease in nonperforming loans in the seasonal tax services and consumer finance portfolios, partially offset by an increase in nonperforming loans in the commercial finance portfolio.
The Company's nonperforming loans and leases at December 31, 2024 were $35.2 million, representing 0.76% of total gross loans and leases, compared to $41.6 million, or 0.87% of total gross loans and leases at September 30, 2024.
Classified Assets. Federal regulations provide for the classification of certain loans, leases, and other assets such as debt and equity securities considered by the Bank's primary regulator, the OCC, to be of lesser quality as “substandard,” “doubtful” or “loss,” with each such classification dependent on the facts and circumstances surrounding the assets in question. An asset is considered “substandard” if it is inadequately protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged, if any. “Substandard” assets include those characterized by the “distinct possibility” that the Bank will sustain “some loss” if the deficiencies are not corrected. Assets classified as “doubtful” have all of the weaknesses inherent in those classified “substandard,” with the added characteristic that the weaknesses present make “collection or liquidation in full,” on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions and values, “highly questionable and improbable.” Assets classified as “loss” are those considered “uncollectible” and of such minimal value that their continuance as assets without the establishment of a specific loss reserve is not warranted.
General allowances represent loss allowances which have been established to recognize the inherent risk associated with lending activities, but which, unlike specific allowances, have not been allocated to particular problem assets. When assets are classified as “loss,” the Bank is required either to establish a specific allowance for losses equal to 100% of that portion of the asset so classified or to charge off such amount. The Bank’s determinations as to the classification of its assets and the amount of its valuation allowances are subject to review by its regulatory authorities, which may order the establishment of additional general or specific loss allowances.
On the basis of management’s review of its loans, leases, and other assets, at December 31, 2024, the Company had classified loans and leases of $197.7 million as substandard, $4.8 million as doubtful and none as loss. At September 30, 2024, the Company classified loans and leases of $180.9 million as substandard, $10.3 million as doubtful and none as loss.

Allowance for Credit Losses. The ACL represents management’s estimate of current credit losses expected to be incurred by the loan and lease portfolio over the life of each financial asset as of the balance sheet date. The Company individually evaluates loans and leases that do not share similar risk characteristics with other financial assets, which generally means loans and leases identified as modifications or loans and leases on nonaccrual status. All other loans and leases are evaluated collectively for credit loss. A reserve for unfunded credit commitments such as letters of credit and binding unfunded loan commitments is recorded in other liabilities on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition.
Individually evaluated loans and leases are a key component of the ACL. Generally, the Company measures credit loss on individually evaluated loans based on the fair value of the collateral less estimated selling costs, as the Company considers these financial assets to be collateral dependent. If an individually evaluated loan or lease is not collateral dependent, credit loss is measured at the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan or lease initial effective interest rate.
The Company's ACL totaled $49.0 million at December 31, 2024, an increase compared to $45.3 million at September 30, 2024. The increase in the ACL at December 31, 2024, when compared to September 30, 2024, was primarily due to a $2.8 million increase in the allowance related to the consumer finance portfolio due to seasonal activity and a $0.8 million increase in the allowance related to the seasonal tax services portfolio.
The following table presents the Company's ACL as a percentage of its total loans and leases.

| As of the Period Ended
| December 31, 2024 | September 30, 2024 | June 30, 2024 | March 31, 2024 | December 31, 2023
Commercial finance | 1.18 | % | 1.29 | % | 1.17 | % | 1.21 | % | 1.30 | %
Consumer finance | 1.79 | % | 0.90 | % | 2.23 | % | 1.71 | % | 1.45 | %
Tax services | 1.75 | % | 0.02 | % | 66.35 | % | 37.31 | % | 1.52 | %
Warehouse finance | 0.10 | % | 0.10 | % | 0.10 | % | 0.10 | % | 0.10 | %
Total loans and leases | 1.07 | % | 1.11 | % | 1.73 | % | 1.83 | % | 1.22 | %
Total loans and leases excluding tax services | 1.07 | % | 1.12 | % | 1.12 | % | 1.14 | % | 1.21 | %

The Company's ACL as a percentage of total loans and leases decreased to 1.07% at December 31, 2024 from 1.11% at September 30, 2024. The decrease in the total loans and leases coverage ratio was primarily driven by the commercial finance portfolio, partially offset by an increase in the seasonal tax services portfolio and consumer finance portfolio. The increase in the tax services and consumer finance portfolios loan coverage ratios was due to seasonal activity.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES
The Company’s financial statements are prepared in accordance with GAAP. The financial information contained within these financial statements is, to a significant extent, based on approximate measures of the financial effects of transactions and events that have already occurred. Management has identified its critical accounting policies, which are those policies that, in management's view, are most important in the portrayal of our financial condition and results of operations. These policies involve complex and subjective decisions and assessments. Some of these estimates may be uncertain at the time they are made, could change from period to period, and could have a material impact on the financial statements. A discussion of the Company’s critical accounting policies and estimates can be found in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2024. There were no significant changes to these critical accounting policies and estimates during the first three months of fiscal 2025.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Company’s primary sources of funds are deposits, derived principally through its Partner Solutions business line, borrowings, principal and interest payments on loans and leases and mortgage-backed securities, and maturing investment securities. In addition, the Company utilizes wholesale deposit sources to provide temporary funding when necessary or when favorable terms are available. While scheduled loan repayments and maturing investments are relatively predictable, deposit flows and early loan repayments are influenced by the level of interest rates, general economic conditions and competition. The Company uses its capital resources principally to meet ongoing commitments to fund maturing certificates of deposit and loan commitments, to maintain liquidity, and to meet operating expenses.
At December 31, 2024, the Company had unfunded loan and lease commitments of $1.31 billion. Management believes that loan repayment and other sources of funds will be adequate to meet its foreseeable short- and long-term liquidity needs. The liquidity sources as of December 31, 2024 include $597.4 million in cash and cash equivalents and $840.5 million in off-balance sheet custodial deposits. When factoring in additional resources, such as the Federal Home Loan Bank, the Federal Reserve Discount Window and other unsecured funding and wholesale options, the Company has over $4.03 billion in total available liquidity as of December 31, 2024. Due to the characteristics of the Company's deposit portfolio, uninsured deposits remained less than 15% of total deposits during the fiscal 2025 first quarter and below the Company's available liquidity.
The Company and the Bank are required to comply with the regulatory capital rules administered by federal banking agencies (the "Capital Rules"). Under the Capital Rules and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Company and Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of the Company’s and Bank’s assets, liabilities and certain off-balance-sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The Company’s and Bank’s capital amounts and classifications are also subject to qualitative judgments by regulators about components, risk weightings, and other factors.
The Capital Rules require the Company and the Bank to maintain minimum ratios (set forth in the table below) of total risk-based capital and Tier 1 capital (as defined in the regulations) to risk-weighted assets (as defined), and a leverage ratio consisting of Tier 1 capital (as defined) to average assets (as defined). At December 31, 2024, the Company and the Bank exceeded federal regulatory minimum capital requirements to be classified as well-capitalized under the prompt corrective action requirements. The Company and the Bank took the AOCI opt-out election; under the rule, non-advanced approach banking organizations were given a one-time option to exclude certain AOCI components.
The table below includes certain non-GAAP financial measures that are used by investors, analysts and bank regulatory agencies to assess the capital position of financial services companies. Management reviews these measures along with other measures of capital as part of its financial analyses and has included this non-GAAP financial information, and corresponding reconciliation to total equity.

| Company | Bank | Minimum to be Adequately Capitalized Under Prompt Corrective Action Provisions | Minimum to be Well Capitalized Under Prompt Corrective Action Provisions
At December 31, 2024 |  |  |  |
Tier 1 leverage capital ratio | 9.15 | % | 9.42 | % | 4.00 | % | 5.00 | %

(1) Capital ratios were determined using the Basel III capital rules that became effective on January 1, 2015. Basel III revised the definition of capital, increased minimum capital ratios, and introduced a minimum common equity tier 1 capital ratio; those changes were fully phased in through the end of 2021.

The Company and the Bank have been required to maintain a capital conservation buffer above the minimum risk-based capital requirements in order to avoid certain limitations on capital distributions, stock repurchases and discretionary bonus payments to executive officers. The capital conservation buffer is exclusively composed of Common Equity Tier 1 capital, and it applies to each of the three risk-based capital ratios but not the leverage ratio. The required Common Equity Tier 1 risk-based, Tier 1 risk-based and total risk-based capital ratios with the buffer are currently 7.0%, 8.5% and 10.5%, respectively.
Based on current and expected continued profitability and subject to continued access to capital markets, we believe that the Company and the Bank will continue to meet the capital conservation buffer of 2.5% in addition to required minimum capital ratios.
CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS
See "Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations-Contractual Obligations" in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for its fiscal year ended September 30, 2024 for a summary of our contractual obligations as of September 30, 2024. There were no material changes outside the ordinary course of our business in contractual obligations from September 30, 2024 through December 31, 2024.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
The Company derives a portion of its income from the excess of interest collected over interest paid. The rates of interest the Company earns on assets and pays on liabilities generally are established contractually for a period of time. Market interest rates change over time. Accordingly, the Company’s results of operations, like those of most financial institutions, are impacted by changes in interest rates and the interest rate sensitivity of its assets and liabilities.
The Company monitors and measures its exposure to changes in interest rates in order to comply with applicable government regulations and risk policies established by the Board of Directors, and in order to preserve stockholder value. In monitoring interest rate risk, the Company analyzes assets and liabilities based on characteristics including size, coupon rate, repricing frequency, maturity date, likelihood of prepayment, and deposit behaviors.
45

Table of Contents
The Company’s primary objective for its investment portfolio is to provide a source of liquidity for the Company. In addition, the investment portfolio may be used in the management of the Company’s interest rate risk profile. The investment policy generally calls for funds to be invested among various categories of security types and maturities based upon the Company’s need for liquidity, desire to achieve a proper balance between minimizing risk while maximizing yield, the need to provide collateral for borrowings, and the need to fulfill the Company’s asset/liability management goals.
The Company believes that its portfolio of longer duration deposits generated from its Partner Solutions business line provides a stable and profitable funding vehicle. A portion of the Company’s deposit balances are subject to variable card processing expenses, derived from contractual agreements with certain Partner Solutions partners tied to a rate index, typically the EFFR. These costs reprice immediately upon a change in the applicable rate index.
The Bank, acting as custodian of cardholder funds, places a portion of such cardholder funds at one or more third-party banks insured by the FDIC (each, a “Program Bank”). These custodial deposits earn recordkeeping service fee income, typically reflective of the EFFR.
The Board of Directors and relevant government regulations establish limits on the level of acceptable interest rate risk at the Company, to which management adheres. There can be no assurance, however, that, in the event of an adverse change in interest rates, the Company’s efforts to limit interest rate risk will be successful.
Interest Rate Risk (“IRR”)
Overview. The Company actively manages interest rate risk, as changes in market interest rates can have a significant impact on reported earnings. The Company's IRR analysis is designed to compare income and economic valuation simulations in market scenarios designed to alter the direction, magnitude and speed of interest rate changes, as well as the slope of the yield curve. This analysis may not represent all impacts driven by changes in the interest rate environment, such as certain other card fee income and expense line items tied to card processing expense derived from contractual agreements with certain Partner Solutions partners and servicing fees the Company recognizes from custodial off-balance sheet deposits. The Company does not currently engage in trading activities to control IRR although it may do so in the future, if deemed necessary, to help manage IRR.
Earnings at risk and economic value analysis. As a continuing part of its financial strategy, the Bank considers methods of managing an asset/liability mismatch consistent with maintaining acceptable levels of net interest income. In order to monitor IRR, the Company has created an Asset/Liability Committee whose principal responsibilities are to assess the Bank’s asset/liability mix and implement strategies that will enhance income while managing the Bank’s vulnerability to changes in interest rates.
The Company uses two approaches to model IRR: Earnings at Risk (“EAR analysis”) and Economic Value of Equity (“EVE analysis”). Under EAR analysis, net interest income is calculated for each interest rate scenario and compared to the net interest income forecast in the base case over a one-year minimum time horizon. The results are affected by projected rates, prepayments, caps and floors. Management exercises its best judgment in making assumptions regarding events that management can influence, such as non-contractual deposit re-pricing, as well as events outside of management's control, such as customer behavior on loan and deposit activity and the effect that competition has on both lending and deposit pricing. These assumptions are subjective and, as a result, net interest income simulation results will differ from actual results due to the timing, magnitude, and frequency of interest rate changes, changes in market conditions, customer behavior and management strategies, among other factors. The Company performs various sensitivity analyses on assumptions of deposit attrition, loan prepayments, and asset re-pricing, as well as market-implied forward rates and various likely and extreme interest rate scenarios, including rapid and gradual interest rate ramps, rate shocks and yield curve twists.

The EAR analysis used in the following table reflects the required analysis used no less than quarterly by management. It models basis point parallel shifts in market interest rates over the next one-year period. The following table shows the results of the scenarios as of December 31, 2024 and September 30, 2024:

Net Sensitive Earnings at Risk
|  |  | Change in Interest Income/Expense for a given change in interest rates
|  |  | Over/(Under) Base Case Parallel Shift
(Dollars in Thousands) | Book Value |  | -200 | -100 | Base | +100 | +200
Balances as of December 31, 2024 |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Total interest income | 6,737,172 |  |  | 407,539 |  | 436,927 |  | 470,173 |  | 504,673 |  | 537,976 |
Total interest expense | 235,008 |  |  | 518 |  | 553 |  | 1,267 |  | 3,000 |  | 4,753 |
Net interest income |  |  | 407,021 |  | 436,374 |  | 468,906 |  | 501,673 |  | 533,223 |
Percentage change from base |  |  | -13.2 | % | -6.9 | % | — | % | 7.0 | % | 13.7 | %
Balances as of September 30, 2024 |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Total interest income | 6,676,417 |  |  | 411,926 |  | 440,588 |  | 470,620 |  | 499,529 |  | 527,533 |
Total interest expense | 634,988 |  |  | 12,614 |  | 16,686 |  | 22,053 |  | 27,715 |  | 33,184 |
Net interest income |  |  | 399,312 |  | 423,902 |  | 448,567 |  | 471,814 |  | 494,349 |
Percentage change from base |  |  | -11.0 | % | -5.5 | % | — | % | 5.2 | % | 10.2 | %

The EAR analysis reported at December 31, 2024, shows that total interest income will change more rapidly than total interest expense over the next year. IRR is a snapshot in time. The Company’s business and deposits are predictably cyclical on a weekly, monthly and yearly basis. The Company’s static IRR results could vary depending on which day of the week the month ends, primarily related to payroll processing and timing of when certain programs are prefunded and when the funds are received.
Under EVE analysis, the economic value of financial assets, liabilities and off-balance sheet instruments is derived under each rate scenario. The economic value of equity is calculated as the difference between the estimated market value of assets and liabilities, net of the impact of off-balance sheet instruments.
The EVE analysis used in the following table reflects the required analysis used no less than quarterly by management. It models immediate basis point parallel shifts in market interest rates. The following table shows the results of the scenario as of December 31, 2024 and September 30, 2024:

Economic Value Sensitivity |  |  |  |
| Standard (Parallel Shift)
| Economic Value of Equity at Risk %
| -200 | -100 | +100 | +200
Balances as of December 31, 2024 |  |  |  |
Percentage change from base | -7.5 | % | -3.2 | % | 2.2 | % | 3.8 | %
Balances as of September 30, 2024 |  |  |  |
Percentage change from base | -10.0 | % | -3.9 | % | 2.6 | % | 4.2 | %

The EVE at risk reported at December 31, 2024 shows that the economic value of equity position is expected to benefit from rising interest rates due to the large amount of noninterest-bearing funding.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
EVALUATION OF DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Management, under the direction of its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, is responsible for maintaining disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "1934 Act")) that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports filed or submitted under the 1934 Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.
In connection with the preparation of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, management evaluated the Company's disclosure controls and procedures. The evaluation was performed under the direction of the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer to determine the effectiveness, as of December 31, 2024, of the design and operation of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures. Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of December 31, 2024, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were designed effectively to ensure timely alerting of material information relating to the Company required to be included in the Company's periodic SEC filings.
INHERENT LIMITATIONS ON THE EFFECTIVENESS OF CONTROLS
Any control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable (not absolute) assurance that its objectives will be met. Furthermore, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, have been detected. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that misstatements due to error or fraud will not occur or that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected.
CHANGES IN INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING
Management conducted an evaluation of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting to determine whether any changes occurred during the three months ended December 31, 2024 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting. Based on this evaluation, management concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this report, there were no changes in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the 1934 Act) during the fiscal first quarter to which this report relates that could have materially affected the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting.
