Revenue and Profitability Recovery
Full-year 2025 total revenue of $93.2M and adjusted EBITDA of $15.6M; Q4 2025 revenue of $19.3M and adjusted EBITDA of $2.8M, a material improvement versus prior-year periods that included large negative change-in-estimate adjustments.
Loan Production and Guidance
Facilitated 97,348 certified loans in 2025 and 19,308 in Q4. Management provided full-year 2026 guidance of 100,000–110,000 certified loans (midpoint ~8% above 2025) and Q1 2026 guidance of 21,000–22,000.
Improved Credit Performance
2025 vintage over-60-day delinquency at 12 months is approximately 200 basis points lower than the 2023 and 2024 vintages, and management expects vintages to ultimately perform closer to the mid-60% loss-ratio range.
Stabilized Profit-Share Economics
Profit-share unit economics are being conservatively booked at an implied 72.5% loss ratio at certification, with profit-share revenue for 2025 new originations of $6.2M ($322 per certified loan) and management expecting lower volatility and improved ultimate performance.
Balance Sheet Strength and Capital Actions
Ended Q4 with $176.6M of unrestricted cash, total assets of $230.7M, reduced outstanding debt by $50M in the quarter (expected quarterly interest savings of ~$575K), and repurchased ~564K shares at an average $1.66 (≈$900K); $20.1M remains on the buyback program.
Product and Channel Expansion — Apex One Auto & OEM 3
Launched Apex One Auto in Q4 (two prime customers, mid-five-figure application flow, subscription-based model, pipeline doubled since launch) and continued OEM 3 ramp with deployments in Southern California and Texas and strong quarter-over-quarter volume growth (management cited 76% Q4 over Q3 increase for OEM 3).
Operational Improvements and Leadership
Management highlighted expense discipline (Q4 operating expenses down to $13.9M from $15.4M, a 9.3% YoY decrease), strengthened leadership with additions including a Chief Growth Officer, and ongoing model improvements (Project Red Rocks) to better simulate pricing, volume, and loss trade-offs.
Improving Application Metrics and Customer Retention
Since Feb 1, average CERTs per business day improved to 353 from 293 during the impacted period; application flow was ~20% higher year-over-year through February. Customer retention: zero customers lost in Q4 and only four lost for full year 2025; added six logos in Q4 and 46 in the full year.
