GreenSky, Inc. Reports Strong First Quarter Profitability; Record First Quarter Adjusted EBITDA; Raises Full Year Guidance

Revenue of $125.2 million

Net Income of $12.1 million; Diluted EPS of $0.05

Adjusted Pro Forma Net Income of $15.2 million; Adjusted Pro Forma Diluted EPS of $0.08

Adjusted EBITDA of $35.1 million

GreenSky, Inc. (NASDAQ: GSKY), a leading financial technology company Powering Commerce at the Point of Sale®, reported financial results today for the first quarter ended March 31, 2021.

“I am delighted to share that GreenSky’s strong performance for the first quarter of the year has us on an early pace to materially exceed our 2021 performance goals,” said David Zalik, GreenSky’s Chairman and CEO. “During the first quarter, we delivered strong profitability across all key metrics and are encouraged by the continued momentum in transaction volume growth. Specifically, our Home Improvement business saw a record amount of first quarter application approvals, while our Elective Healthcare business continued to restore and normalize. Enterprise-wide transaction volume was up 28% from February to March, compared to 21% for the same period in 2019, reflecting accelerated growth compared to pre-pandemic levels. Moreover, during the quarter we enjoyed tremendous Home Improvement new merchant enrollments in the windows & doors, HVAC, roofing and kitchen and bath categories, positioning us for exceptional volumes in the coming quarters.” Zalik continued, “For the first quarter, when compared to the first quarter of 2020, GreenSky’s Net Income increased by $23 million, Pro Forma Net Income increased by $24 million and Adjusted EBITDA more than doubled to a record $35 million, reflecting a first quarter Adjusted EBITDA margin of 28%.”

Andrew Kang, Chief Financial Officer, said, “Building off a successful launch to grow and diversify our funding in 2020, through the first four months of 2021, we have completed an additional $2.3 billion in new funding initiatives across a diverse set of investors and with improved economics compared to 2020. We increased the commitment of our existing forward flow agreement, completed additional loan sales in the quarter and increased our bank waterfall commitment with an existing, long-standing bank partner and extended that commitment for an additional 2 years.” Mr. Kang continued, “Our strong first quarter results were driven by an 11% year-over-year improvement in Cost of Revenue and the ongoing positive credit performance of our servicing portfolio, which has us well positioned to exceed budget for the full year. As a result, we are raising our 2021 net income and Adjusted EBITDA guidance.”

First Quarter Financial Highlights:

  • Transaction Volume: First quarter transaction volume was $1.3 billion, compared to $1.4 billion in the first quarter of 2020, as supply chains continued to normalize, and application momentum continued to build throughout the quarter. This momentum continued into the month of April, which saw monthly transaction volume exceed April 2020 transaction volume by 38%.
  • Transaction Fee Rate: The average transaction fee rate was 6.61% in the first quarter, an increase of 6 basis points from an average transaction fee rate of 6.55% in the first quarter of 2020. Excluding certain sponsor rebates that have been consistent in the first quarter, the average transaction fee rate was 6.89%.
  • Revenue: First quarter total revenue increased 3% year-over-year, from $121.9 million to $125.2 million.
    • Transaction fee revenue was $85.7 million compared to $89.9 million in the first quarter of 2020.
    • Total servicing revenue increased 11% to $34.7 million. Servicing fees earned during the quarter decreased due to an average servicing fee rate of 1.17% compared to 1.29% in the first quarter of 2020, reflecting changes in the composition of our servicing portfolio, while the fair value change of our servicing asset in the first quarter of 2021 increased servicing revenue by $5.4 million when compared to the same quarter of 2020 due to improved portfolio performance and faster prepayments.
    • Interest and other revenue increased to $4.8 million from $690 thousand for the first quarter of 2020, primarily related to interest income earned on loan receivables held for sale.
  • Cost of Revenue: Total cost of revenue decreased $8.3 million, or 11%, compared to the first quarter of 2020, primarily due to the diversification of our funding model and higher incentive payments received from our bank partners.
  • Credit Quality: The weighted-average FICO score for originations in the first quarter of 2021 increased to 782, from 773 in the first quarter of 2020. Credit performance continued to be very strong with March 31, 2021 thirty-day plus delinquencies of 0.76%, versus 1.23% at March 31, 2020.
  • Net Income and Diluted Earnings per Share: For the first quarter of 2021, the Company recognized net income of $12.1 million compared to a net loss of $(10.9) million for the same period of 2020, resulting in diluted earnings per share of $0.05, compared to diluted earnings per share of $(0.05) in the first quarter of 2020.
  • Adjusted Pro Forma Net Income and Adjusted Earnings per Share (1): For the first quarter of 2021, the Company recognized adjusted pro forma net income of $15.2 million compared to $(8.4) million for the first quarter of 2020, which resulted in adjusted pro forma diluted earnings per share of $0.08, compared to $(0.05) for the first quarter of 2020.
  • Adjusted EBITDA(1): First quarter Adjusted EBITDA was $35.1 million, an increase of 105% from $17.1 million for the first quarter in 2020. Adjusted EBITDA margin improved to 28% in the first quarter of 2021, up from 14% in the first quarter of 2020.

(1) Adjusted Pro Forma Net Income, Adjusted Pro Forma Diluted Earnings per Share, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin are non-GAAP measures. Refer to “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” for important additional information.

Business Updates:

  • Merchants: During the quarter, GreenSky solidified its market leading position in the Windows and Doors business segment by expanding its strategic relationship with one of our largest sponsors.
  • Funding: Through the first four months of 2021, GreenSky completed an additional $2.3 billion in new funding initiatives. In the first quarter, the Company executed asset sales of approximately $315 million and closed a $1 billion, 1-year forward flow agreement with a global life insurance company. Subsequent to quarter-end, the forward flow commitment was further increased by $500 million to a total $1.5 billion. Additionally, the Company increased an existing bank partner’s funding commitment by $500 million to a total $2.0 billion and extended that commitment for another two years into the fourth quarter of 2023.
  • Liquidity: At March 31, 2021, the Company had $296 million available corporate liquidity, consisting of unrestricted cash of $196 million, a $49 million increase from December 31, 2020, and $100 million available under a revolving credit facility.
  • COVID-19 Assistance: The balances of loans remaining in COVID-19 payment deferral status declined materially, representing approximately 0.21%, or less than $20 million, of the total $9.3 billion in loans serviced on our platform as of March 31, 2021, contrasted with 0.80% of total loans serviced on our platform at December 31, 2020.
  • Legal Proceedings: In April, the Company entered into a binding memorandum of understanding to settle its outstanding IPO litigation in its entirety, which settlement is subject to court approval. Substantially all amounts payable under the proposed settlement will be paid by the Company’s insurers.

Updated 2021 Guidance:

  • GreenSky's updated 2021 guidance is as follows:
    • Transaction volume of $6.2 billion to $6.5 billion
    • Revenues of $560 to $570 million
    • Net Income of $35 million to $45 million
    • Adjusted EBITDA of $95 million to $105 million
    • Adjusted EBITDA Margin of 17% to 19%

Forward-Looking Statements

This press release contains forward-looking statements that reflect the Company's current views with respect to, among other things, its operations; and 2021 performance and financial guidance. You generally can identify these statements by the use of words such as “outlook,” “potential,” “continue,” “may,” “seek,” “approximately,” “predict,” “believe,” “expect,” “plan,” “intend,” “estimate” or “anticipate” and similar expressions or the negative versions of these words or comparable words, as well as future or conditional verbs such as “will,” “should,” “would,” “likely” and “could.” These statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those included in the forward-looking statements. These risks and uncertainties include those risks described in GreenSky's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission and include, but are not limited to, risks related to the extent and duration of the COVID-19 pandemic and its impact on the Company, its bank partners and merchants, GreenSky program borrowers, loan demand (including, in particular, for elective healthcare procedures), the capital markets (including the Company's ability to obtain additional funding or facilitate additional whole loan or loan participation sales) and the economy in general; the Company's ability to retain existing, and attract new, merchants and bank partners or other funding sources, including the risk that one or more bank partners do not renew their funding commitments or reduce existing commitments; its future financial performance, including trends in revenue, cost of revenue, gross profit or gross margin, operating expenses, and free cash flow; changes in market interest rates; increases in loan delinquencies; its ability to operate successfully in a highly regulated industry; the outcome of litigation and regulatory matters; the effect of management changes; cyberattacks and security vulnerabilities in its products and services; and the Company's ability to compete successfully in highly competitive markets. The forward-looking statements speak only as of the date on which they are made, and, except to the extent required by federal securities laws, GreenSky disclaims any obligation to update any forward-looking statement to reflect events or circumstances after the date on which the statement is made or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events. In light of these risks and uncertainties, there is no assurance that the events or results suggested by the forward-looking statements will in fact occur, and you should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release presents information about the Company’s Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Adjusted Pro Forma Net Income, and Adjusted Pro Forma Diluted Earnings Per Share, which are non-GAAP financial measures provided as supplements to the results provided in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). We believe that Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin are key financial indicators of our business performance over the long term and provide useful information regarding whether cash provided by operating activities is sufficient to maintain and grow our business. We believe that this methodology for determining Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin can provide useful supplemental information to help investors better understand the economics of our platform. We believe that Adjusted Pro Forma Net Income is a useful measure because it makes our results more directly comparable to public companies that have the vast majority of their earnings subject to corporate income taxation.

We are presenting these non-GAAP measures to assist investors in evaluating our financial performance and because we believe that these measures provide an additional tool for investors to use in comparing our core financial performance over multiple periods with other companies in our industry.

These non-GAAP measures are presented for supplemental informational purposes only. These non-GAAP measures have limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, the analysis of other GAAP financial measures, such as net income. The non-GAAP measures GreenSky uses may differ from the non-GAAP measures used by other companies. A reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure is provided below for each of the fiscal periods indicated.
