LETTER FROM THE BOARD

The Further Acquisition of Affirm Shares was accounted for as financial assets at fair value through profit or loss in the consolidated financial statements of the Group. The Further Acquisition of Affirm Shares was initially recognised at fair value in the consolidated statement of financial position of the Group. Any fair value gain or loss arising from the Further Acquisition of Affirm Shares will be recognised in the consolidated statement of profit and loss of the Group at the end of each reporting period.

As the Further Acquisition of Affirm Shares was financed by internally generated funds, the assets and liabilities of the Group are expected to remain unchanged.

Save as disclosed above, there will be no immediate material effect on the earnings and assets and liabilities of the Group associated with the Further Acquisition of Affirm Shares.

It should be noted that the above financial effects of the Further Acquisition of Affirm Shares are for illustrative purposes only. The actual impact of the Further Acquisition of Affirm Shares to be recognised by the Group will be subject to final audit by the Company’s auditors.

REASONS FOR AND BENEFITS OF THE FURTHER ACQUISITION OF AFFIRM SHARES

The Group is principally engaged in the manufacturing and trading of semiconductors, broadband infrastructure construction and the provision of integrated solution for smart domain application (including smart home, smart campus and smart communities).

The Group believes that technological innovation is an important engine for future economic development, and it can also drive the emerging applications in the smart living sector. The Group always hopes to leverage our own advantages in the field of smart technology to actively diversify the investments in the field of innovative technologies, in order to facilitate the technological development and create greater value for the Shareholders.

Affirm is a financial technology company in the United States. As set out in the Previous Acquisitions Announcements, the Board holds positive views towards the financial performance and future prospect of Affirm. The Group considers that Further Acquisition of Affirm Shares can increase our holdings in these attractive investments and to further expand its investment portfolio with quality assets, which will enhance investment return for the Group.

As the Further Acquisition of Affirm Shares was made in the open market at prevailing market prices, the Directors are of the view that the terms of the Further Acquisition of Affirm Shares are fair and reasonable and in the interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

LISTING RULES IMPLICATIONS

Pursuant to Rule 14.22 and Rule 14.23 of the Listing Rules for the purpose of classification of the transactions, as the Previous Acquisitions of Affirm Shares and the Further Acquisition of Affirm Shares involve the acquisition of Affirm Shares within a 12-month period, all transactions respectively contemplated thereunder are considered and are aggregated as one transaction at a total consideration of approximately US$3.2 million (equivalent to approximately HK$25.0 million).

The Further Acquisition of Affirm Shares, on a standalone basis, constitutes a discloseable transaction since one or more of the applicable percentage ratios (as defined under the Listing Rules) are more than 5% but all of such ratios are less than 25%.

As the highest applicable percentage ratios (as defined under Rule 14.07 of the Listing Rules) in respect of the Further Acquisition of Affirm Shares, when aggregated with the Previous Acquisitions of Affirm Shares by the Company in the preceding 12-month period, exceeds 25% but is less than 100%, the Further Acquisition of Affirm Shares constitutes a major transaction for the Company and is subject to reporting, announcement, circular and Shareholders’ approval requirement under Chapter 14 of the Listing Rules.

WAIVER FROM STRICT COMPLIANCE WITH THE REQUIREMENTS UNDER THE LISTING RULES

Waiver from strict compliance with Rule 14.67(6)(a)(i) and Rule 14.67(7) of the Listing Rules

Pursuant to Rules 14.67(6)(a)(i) and 14.67(7) of the Listing Rules, the Company is required to include in this circular an accountant’s report on Affirm which is prepared in accordance with Chapter 4 of the Listing Rules and a discussion and analysis on results of Affirm covering all those matters set out in paragraph 32 of Appendix D2 to the Listing Rules for the period reported in such accountant’s report.

As the Company considers that the strict compliance with Rules 14.67(6)(a)(i) and 14.67(7) of the Listing Rules would be unduly burdensome, the Company has applied for waiver from strict compliance of the aforesaid Listing Rules on the following grounds:

  • (a) The Further Acquisition of Affirm Shares is part of the Group’s strategic investments business, and the Group may make appropriate investment opportunities as and when appropriate, including but not limited to acquisition(s) and disposal(s) of listed equity securities. Subsequent to the Further Acquisition of Affirm Shares, the percentage of Affirm’s shares held by the Company would increase from approximately 0.020% to 0.028%. The Company also does not have any board seats in Affirm. It is submitted that the Company’s minority interest in Affirm is minimal and insignificant to exert any form of control over Affirm.

– 8 –

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

  • (b) Following the Further Acquisition of Affirm Shares, Affirm will not become a subsidiary or an associate of the Company and the financial results of Affirm will not be consolidated in the financial statements of the Group nor be equity accounted for in the Group’s consolidated financial statements as an associate. Requiring the Company to arrange for an accountants’ report will be out of proportion to the size of the Further Acquisition of Affirm Shares in terms of time and costs involved.

  • (c) As the Further Acquisition of Affirm Shares was a transaction made in the open market, Affirm was not obliged to assist the Company to prepare the accountants’ report on it for the Further Acquisition of Affirm Shares. In addition, the Company does not have access to Affirm’s books and records to prepare the accountants’ report on it in accordance with the Listing Rules.

  • (d) The preparation of the accountants’ report under Rule 14.67(a)(i) of the Listing Rules for inclusion in the circular would require converting the financial information of Affirm based on the Hong Kong Financial Reporting Standards. Even assuming Affirm is prepared to provide extensive access to its accounting records and provide explanations in relation to the same, the Company considers that it would be unduly onerous to require the Company to set out an accountants’ report of Affirm in its circular as the auditors of the Company would have to carry out audit procedures on Affirm, which would not provide meaningful information to the Shareholders given the above.

  • (e) Affirm, being a listed company incorporated in the United States, is required to publish its audited financial statements, on a regular basis, for each financial year, on its website. Affirm has its financial results audited by Deloitte & Touche LLP and prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States as contained in the Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification (the “ U.S. GAAP ”). Affirm had been publishing financial information to the market on a regular basis to enable investors to assess its activities and financial position, and such filings can be easily obtained by the Shareholders and will enable them and potential investors to make a properly informed assessment of Affirm. Further, Affirm would publish its unaudited quarterly results on its website. The unaudited quarterly results were prepared based on the U.S. GAAP, and therefore, such information is publicly available.

  • (f) The Company’s reporting accountant to this circular considers that the accounting standards under U.S. GAAP and the accounting policies of the Company, i.e. Hong Kong Financial Reporting Standards issued by the Hong Kong Institute of Certified Public Accountants, are materially consistent.

– 9 –

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

  • (g) As stated in the reasons set out in points (c) and (e) above, the Company could not access the books and records of Affirm and Affirm was not prepared to disclose any additional financial information. Thus, the Company were not able to prepare the discussion and analysis of results of Affirm for the incorporation into this circular. In addition, the Company could not express any view as to the truth, accuracy or completeness on the discussion and analysis of the results of Affirm as stated in its published information.

In light of the above, the Company considers that strict compliance with requirements under Rules 14.67(6)(a)(i) and 14.67(7) of the Listing Rules would be unduly burdensome and impractical, and a relaxation of such requirements would unlikely result in undue risks to the Shareholders and potential investors of the Company.

Alternative disclosures

The Company has included the following information in this circular as alternative disclosures to an accountants’ report required under Rule 14.67(6)(a)(i) of the Listing Rules and a management discussion and analysis required under Rule 14.67(7) of the Listing Rules:

  • (a) the annual audited consolidated financial statements of Affirm for the year ended 30 June 2021 as extracted from the published documents of Affirm, which is set out on page II-1 to II-72 in Appendix II to this circular;

  • (b) the annual audited consolidated financial statements of Affirm for the year ended 30 June 2022 as extracted from the published documents of Affirm, which is set out on page II-73 to II-148 in Appendix II to this circular;

  • (c) the annual audited consolidated financial statements of Affirm for the year ended 30 June 2023 as extracted from the published documents of Affirm, which is set out on page II-149 to II-217 in Appendix II to this circular;

  • (d) the unaudited consolidated financial statements of Affirm for the three months ended 30 September 2023 as extracted from the published documents of Affirm, which is set out on page II-218 to II-265 in Appendix II to this circular; and

  • (e) the management discussion and analysis of the results of operations of Affirm for the three financial years ended 30 June 2023 and the three months ended 30 September 2023 as extracted from the published documents of Affirm, which are set out on pages III-1 to III-86 in Appendix III to this circular.

Based on the information provided by the Company and the alternative disclosures above, the Stock Exchange granted the waiver from strict compliance with Rules 14.67(6)(a)(i) and 14.67(7) under the Listing Rules.

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

WRITTEN SHAREHOLDER’S APPROVAL

Pursuant to Rule 14.44 of the Listing Rules, shareholders’ approval may be obtained by written shareholders’ approval in lieu of convening a general meeting if (a) no shareholder is required to abstain from voting if the Company were to convene a general meeting for the approval of the Further Acquisition of Affirm Shares; and (b) written approval has been obtained from a shareholder or a closely allied group of shareholders who together hold more than 50% of the issued share capital of the Company giving the right to attend and vote at general meetings to approve the Further Acquisition of Affirm Shares.

To the best of the Directors’ knowledge, information and belief, having made all reasonable enquiries, no Shareholder has any material interest in the Further Acquisition of Affirm Shares. Thus, if the Company were to convene a general meeting to approve the Further Acquisition of Affirm Shares, no Shareholder is required to abstain from voting on the resolutions in relation to the Further Acquisition of Affirm Shares. As such, the Further Acquisition of Affirm Shares may be approved by written Shareholder’s approval in accordance with Rule 14.44 of the Listing Rules.

In relation to written approval in lieu of holding a general meeting in respect of the Further Acquisition of Affirm Shares, the Company obtained shareholder’s approval from Yoho Bravo Limited which holds 599,658,000 shares (representing approximately 74.96% of the total issued share capital of the Company as at the date of the written approval by Yoho Bravo Limited and the Latest Practicable Date respectively) pursuant to Rule 14.44 of the Listing Rules. As a result, no extraordinary general meeting will be convened to consider the Further Acquisition of Affirm Shares.

RECOMMENDATION

The Directors (including the independent non-executive Directors) consider that the Further Acquisition of Affirm Shares are on normal commercial terms, which is fair and reasonable and in the interests of the Company and its Shareholders as a whole. The Directors would recommend the Shareholders to vote in favour of the Further Acquisition of Affirm Shares if a physical meeting were to be held.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

Your attention is drawn to the additional information set out in the appendices to this circular.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Affirm Holdings, Inc. and subsidiaries
(the "Company") as of June 30, 2021 and 2020, the related consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive
loss, changes in redeemable convertible preferred stock and stockholders’ equity(deficit), and cash flows for the
years then ended, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the
financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of June 30, 2021
and 2020, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Basis for Opinion

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to
express an opinion on the Company's financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm
registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be
independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules
and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we
plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform,
an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an
understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the
effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial
statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures
included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our
audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as
well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a
reasonable basis for our opinion.

Critical Audit Matter

The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current-period audit of the
financial statements that was communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that (1)
relates to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved especially
challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any
way our opinion on the financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit
matter below, providing a separate opinion on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or disclosures to which it
relates.

Allowance for Credit Losses — Refer to Notes 2 and 4 to the financial statements

Critical Audit Matter Description

The allowance for credit losses is a material estimate of the Company and as of June 30, 2021, the total
balance was $117.8 million. On July 1, 2020, the Company adopted ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments —
Credit Losses (Topic 326) (“ASC 326”): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, which modified
the accounting for the allowance for credit losses from an incurred loss model to an expected loss model (the
“Current Expected Credit Losses” or “CECL” model) The Company utilized the modified retrospective approach
upon adoption, which resulted in an increase in the allowance for credit losses of $10.1 million and a cumulative
effect adjustment to the beginning balance of accumulated deficit of $10.1 million.

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF AFFIRM

APPENDIX II

In estimating the allowance for credit losses, management utilizes a migration analysis of delinquent and
current loan receivables. Migration analysis is a technique used to estimate the likelihood that a loan receivable will
progress through various stages of delinquency and to charge-off. The analysis focuses on the pertinent factors
underlying the quality of the loan portfolio. These factors include historical performance, the age of the receivable
balance, seasonality, customer credit-worthiness, changes in the size and composition of the loan portfolio,
delinquency levels, bankruptcy filings, actual credit loss experience, as well as current economic conditions and
expectations of future market conditions. Management also incorporates qualitative adjustments to the quantitative
model to capture the impact of events that are not easily captured in the model.
Determining the appropriate level of qualitative adjustments is inherently subjective and relies on
significant judgment. Given the subjective nature and amount of judgment required in developing these estimates,
performing audit procedures to evaluate the reasonableness of the allowance for credit losses required a high degree
of auditor judgment, an increased extent of audit effort, and the need to involve more experienced audit
professionals.

How the Critical Audit Matter Was Addressed in the Audit

Our audit procedures related to the allowance for credit losses included the following procedures, among others:
  • We evaluated the appropriateness of the ACL modeling framework, including the use of qualitative adjustments.

  • We involved our credit specialists to review the CECL model code, perform procedures to evaluate completeness of datasets, and recalculate management’s comparison of actual results with previously estimated reserves and charge-offs

  • We evaluated the extent, accuracy, and completeness of the data used to develop the CECL model and to estimate the allowance for credit losses at the date of the adoption and the end of the year.

  • We evaluated the qualitative adjustments to the quantitative loss rates, including assessing the basis for the adjustments and the reasonableness of the significant assumptions.

  • We evaluated the reasonableness of the Company’s assumptions and judgments in estimating qualitative adjustments, including obtaining third-party macroeconomic data and evaluating any contradictory evidence.

  • We evaluated the magnitude and proportion of the overall allowance, including the directional consistency and magnitude of the qualitative adjustments as of the adoption date and through the end of the year.

  • In order to identify potential bias in the determination of the ACL, we performed analytical analysis, including a retrospective review, various coverage and ratio analysis to evaluate the relevance of the underlying drivers used to determine the qualitative adjustments.

APPENDIX II

AFFIRM HOLDINGS, INC. NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. Business Description

Affirm Holdings, Inc. (“Affirm,” the “Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our”), headquartered in San Francisco,
California, provides consumers with a simpler, more transparent, and flexible alternative to traditional payment
options. Our mission is to deliver honest financial products that improve lives. Through our next-generation
commerce platform and partnerships with originating banks, we enable consumers to confidently pay for a purchase
over time, with terms ranging from one to sixty months. When a consumer applies for a loan through our platform,
the loan is underwritten using our proprietary risk model, and once approved, the consumer selects their preferred
repayment option. The majority of loans are funded and issued by our originating bank partners.
Merchants partner with us to transform the consumer shopping experience and to acquire and convert
customers more effectively through our frictionless point-of-sale payment solution. Consumers get the flexibility to
buy now and make simple monthly payments for their purchases and merchants see increased average order value,
repeat purchase rate, and an overall more satisfied customer base. Unlike legacy payment options and our
competitors’ product offerings, which charge deferred or compounding interest and unexpected costs, we disclose
up-front to consumers exactly what they will owe — no hidden fees, no deferred interest, no penalties.
On January 15, 2021, we closed our initial public offering ("IPO") of 28,290,000 shares of Class A
common stock, including 3,690,000 shares pursuant to the option granted to the underwriters to purchase additional
shares of Class A common stock, at an offering price of $49.00 per share. The proceeds from the IPO, before
expenses, were approximately $1.3 billion.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States ("U.S. GAAP"), as contained in the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”)
Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”).
Our financial statements have been prepared on a consolidated basis. Under this basis of presentation, our
financial statements consolidate all wholly owned subsidiaries and variable interest entities (“VIEs”), in which we
have a controlling financial interest. These include various business trust entities and limited partnerships
established to enter into warehouse credit agreements with certain lenders for funding debt facilities and asset-
backed securitization transactions.
Our variable interests in VIEs generally arise from contractual, ownership, or other monetary interests in
the entity that value changes with fluctuations in the fair value of the entity’s net assets. We consolidate a VIE when
we are deemed to be the primary beneficiary. We assess whether or not we are the primary beneficiary of a VIE on
an ongoing basis.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires the use of
estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amounts in the consolidated financial statements and
the accompanying notes. Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change relate to
determination of the variable consideration for revenue, the allowance for credit losses, capitalized internal-use
software development costs, valuation allowance for deferred tax assets, convertible debt derivatives, loss on loan
purchase commitment, the fair value of servicing assets and liabilities, discount on self-originated loans, the fair
value and useful lives of tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed resulting from business
117

APPENDIX II

combinations, the fair value of contingent consideration related to business combinations, the evaluation for
impairment of intangible assets and goodwill, the incremental borrowing rate used in discounting our lease
liabilities, the fair value of residual certificates issued by our securitization trusts, and stock-based compensation.
We base our estimates on historical experience, current events and other factors we believe to be reasonable under
the circumstances. To the extent that there are material differences between these estimates and actual results, our
financial condition or operating results will be materially affected.
These estimates are based on information available as of the date of the consolidated financial statements;
therefore, actual results could differ materially from those estimates.

Segment Reporting

We conduct our operations through a single operating segment and, therefore, one reportable segment.
Operating segments are components of a company for which separate financial information is internally produced
for regular use by the Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) to allocate resources and assess the performance
of the business. Our CODM, the Chief Executive Officer of Affirm Holdings, Inc., uses a variety of measures to
assess the performance of the business; however, detailed profitability information that could be used to allocate
resources and assess the performance of the business is managed and reviewed for the consolidated company as a
whole.

Business Combinations

We use the acquisition method of accounting for business combination transactions, and, accordingly,
recognize the fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in our consolidated financial statements. Assets
acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination that arise from contingencies are recognized at fair value.
Transaction costs related to the acquisition of the acquired company are expensed as incurred. The allocation of fair
values may be subject to adjustment after the initial allocation for up to a one-year period as more information
becomes available relative to the fair values as of the acquisition date. The consolidated financial statements include
the results of operations of any acquired company since the acquisition date.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents consist of checking, money market and savings accounts held at financial
institutions or highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less.

Restricted Cash

Restricted cash consists primarily of: (i) deposits restricted by standby letters of credit for office leases; (ii)
funds held in accounts as collateral for our originating bank partners; and (iii) servicing funds held in accounts
contractually restricted by agreements with warehouse credit facilities, securitization trusts, and third-party loan
owners. We have no ability to draw on such funds as long as they remain restricted under the applicable agreements.

Loans Held for Investment

We either originate loans directly or purchase our loans from our originating bank partners pursuant to the
terms outlined in the respective executed loan sale program agreements. Loan receivables that we have the intent
and ability to hold for the foreseeable future or until maturity or payoff are classified as held for investment and are
reported at amortized cost, which includes unpaid principal balances, any related premiums including fees paid to
our originating bank partners and discounts due to loan commitment liability, where applicable, adjusted for any
charge-offs and the allowance for credit losses.

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF AFFIRM

APPENDIX II

Loans Held for Sale

We sell certain loans to third-party loan buyers. A loan is initially classified as held for sale when the whole
loan is identified as for sale. Loans classified as held for sale are recorded at the lower of amortized cost or fair
value. A loan that is initially designated as held for sale or held for investment may be reclassified when our intent
for that loan changes. When a loan held for investment is reclassified to held for sale and reported at fair value, any
allowance for the credit loss related to that loan is released and any fair value adjustment to record the loan at the
lower of amortized cost or fair value is recorded. Our loans designated as held for sale are generally sold withinone
to three days of the balance sheet date at a gain. As of June 30, 2021, on a portfolio level, the fair value of loans held
for sale exceeds amortized cost.

Transfers of Financial Assets

We account for loan sales in accordance with ASC 860, "Transfers and Servicing" ("ASC 860") which
states that a transfer of financial assets, a group of financial assets, or a participating interest in a financial asset is
accounted for as a sale if all of the following conditions are met:
  • a. The financial assets are isolated from the transferor and its consolidated affiliates as well as its creditors;

  • b. The transferee or beneficial interest holders have the right to pledge or exchange the transferred financial assets; and

  • c. The transferor does not maintain effective control of the transferred assets.

For the years ended June 30, 2021,2020, and 2019, all loan sales met the requirements for sale treatment
in accordance with ASC 860. We record the gain or loss on the sale of a loan at the sale date in an amount equal to
the proceeds received, adjusted for initial recognition of servicing assets or liabilities obtained at the date of sale,
less the carrying value of the loan.
Upon the sale of a loan to a third-party loan buyer or unconsolidated securitization in which we retain
servicing rights, we may recognize a servicing asset or liability. Receiving more than adequate compensation, as
defined by ASC 860, for servicing those loans results in recognition of a servicing asset. Receiving less than
adequate compensation results in a servicing liability. Servicing assets and liabilities are recorded at fair value and
are presented as a component of other assets or accrued expenses and other liabilities, respectively. The recognition
of a servicing asset results in a corresponding increase to the gain (loss) on sales of loans. The recognition of a
servicing liability results in a corresponding decrease to gain (loss) on sales of loans. The servicing rights are
marked to fair value each period, with the subsequent adjustment recognized in servicing income. The subsequent
measurement includes changes in inputs or assumptions used in the valuation model.
In connection with the sale of a loan to a third-party loan buyer or unconsolidated securitization, we may
also recognize a recourse liability in accordance with ASC 460, "Guarantees" ("ASC 460") as in certain
circumstances we may become required to repurchase loans from third-party investors due to breaches in
representations and warranties. The recognition of a recourse liability results in a corresponding decrease to gain
(loss) on sales of loans. The recourse liability is amortized over the loan term and remeasured each period based on
the outstanding loan balance and changes in our expectation of future repurchase obligations.

Allowance for Credit Losses

The allowance for credit losses on loans held for investment is determined based on management’s current
estimate of expected credit losses over the remaining contractual term, historical credit losses, consumer payment
trends, estimates of recoveries, and future expectations on individual loans as of each balance sheet date. We
immediately recognize an allowance for expected credit losses upon the origination of a loan. Adjustments to the
allowance each period for changes in our estimate of lifetime expected credit losses are recognized in earnings
119

APPENDIX II

through the provision for credit losses presented on our consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive
loss. We have made an accounting policy election to not measure an allowance for credit losses for accrued interest
receivables. Previously recognized interest receivable from charged-off loans that is accrued but not collected from
the consumer is reversed.
In estimating the allowance for credit losses, management utilizes a migration analysis of delinquent and
current loan receivables. Migration analysis is a technique used to estimate the likelihood that a loan receivable will
progress through various stages of delinquency and to charge-off. The analysis focuses on the pertinent factors
underlying the quality of the loan portfolio. These factors include historical performance, the age of the receivable
balance, seasonality, customer credit-worthiness, changes in the size and composition of the loan portfolio,
delinquency levels, bankruptcy filings, actual credit loss experience, and current economic conditions.We also take
into consideration certain qualitative factors where we adjust our quantitative baseline using our best judgement to
consider the inherent uncertainty regarding future economic conditions and consumer loan performance.For
example, the Company considers the impact of current economic and environmental factors at the reporting date that
did not exist over the period from which historical experience was used.As of June 30, 2021, we have considered
the impact of government intervention and legislation in the form of stimulus checks, extended unemployment
benefits, and small business relief on loan repayment and consumer behavior patterns.
When available information confirms that specific loans or portions thereof are uncollectible, identified
amounts are charged against the allowance for credit losses. Loans are charged-off in accordance with our charge-
off policy, as the contractual principal becomes 120 days past due. Subsequent recoveries of the unpaid principal
balance, if any, are credited to the allowance for credit losses. Refer to Note 4. Loans Held for Investment and
Allowance for Credit Losses for more information.

Accounts Receivable, net

Our accounts receivable consist primarily of amounts due from payment processors, merchant partners, and
servicing fees due from third-party loan owners. We evaluate accounts receivable estimated to be uncollectible and
provide allowances, as necessary, for doubtful accounts. This allowance was $4.1 million and $3.1 million as of
June 30, 2021 and June 30, 2020, respectively.

Property, Equipment and Software, net

Property, equipment and software consist of computer and office equipment, capitalized internal-use
software and website development costs and leasehold improvements. Property, equipment and software is stated at
cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization expenses are recognized using
the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, which range from three to seven years.
Leasehold improvements are depreciated over the shorter of the improvement’s estimated useful life or the
remaining lease term.
We capitalize costs to develop internal-use software when preliminary development efforts are successfully
completed, management has authorized and committed project funding, and it is probable that the project will be
completed and the software or website will function and be used as intended. Capitalized internal-use software costs
primarily include salaries and payroll-related costs for employees directly involved in the development efforts,
software licenses acquired and fees paid to external consultants. Such costs are amortized on a straight-line basis
over the estimated useful life of the related asset, which ranges from three to five years. Costs incurred prior to
meeting these criteria, together with costs incurred for training and maintenance, are expensed as incurred. Costs
incurred for enhancements that are expected to result in additional functionality are capitalized and expensed over
the estimated useful life of the upgrades. Capitalized internal-use software costs are included in property, equipment
and software, and amortization expense is included in technology and data analytics expense in the consolidated
statements of operations and comprehensive loss.

120 – II-16 –

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF AFFIRM

APPENDIX II

Property, equipment and software is tested for impairment when there is an indication that the carrying
value of an asset group may not be recoverable. Carrying values are not recoverable when the undiscounted cash
flows estimated to be generated by the assets are less than their carrying values. When an asset is determined not to
be recoverable, the impairment is measured based on the excess, if any, of the carrying value of the asset over its
respective fair value and recorded in the period the determination is made.

Goodwill and Intangible Assets

We recognize the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of identifiable net assets acquired at the
acquisition date as goodwill. Goodwill is not amortized but is reviewed for impairment annually and more
frequently if an event occurs or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a
reporting unit below its carrying value. We perform a quantitative goodwill impairment test by determining the fair
value of the reporting unit and comparing it to the carrying value of the reporting unit. If the fair value of the
reporting unit is greater than the reporting unit’s carrying value, then the carrying value of the reporting unit is
deemed to be recoverable. If the carrying value of the reporting unit is greater than the reporting unit’s fair value,
goodwill is impaired and written down to the reporting unit’s fair value.
Identifiable intangible assets include developed technology, merchant relationships, and trade names
resulting from acquisitions. Acquired intangible assets are recorded at fair value on the date of acquisition and
amortized over their estimated economic lives following the pattern in which the economic benefits of the assets will
be consumed, which is on a straight-line basis. Acquired intangible assets are presented net of accumulated
amortization on the consolidated balance sheets. We review the carrying amounts of intangible assets for impairment
whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be recoverable.
We measure the recoverability of intangible assets by comparing the carrying amount of each asset to the future
undiscounted cash flows we expect the asset to generate. If we consider any of these assets to be impaired, the
impairment to be recognized equals the amount by which the carrying value of the asset exceeds its fair value. In
addition, we periodically evaluate the estimated remaining useful lives of long-lived intangible assets to determine
whether events or changes in circumstances warrant a revision to the remaining period of depreciation or
amortization.

Funding Debt and Debt Issuance Costs

We borrow from various lenders to finance the purchase of loans from our originating bank partner. These
borrowings are carried at amortized cost. Costs incurred in connection with borrowings, such as banker fees,
commitment fees and legal fees, are classified as deferred debt issuance costs. We defer these costs and amortize
them on a straight-line basis over the term of the debt. Interest payments and amortization of debt issuance costs
incurred on debt used to fund purchases of loans from our originating bank partners are presented as funding costs in
the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. Unamortized debt issuance costs are presented as
a reduction of the associated debt.

Income Taxes

Income taxes are accounted for using the asset and liability method, which requires recognition of deferred
tax assets and liabilities for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial
statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax
credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws that are
expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered
or settled. The effect of a change in tax rates on deferred tax assets and liabilities is recognized as an income tax
expense (benefit) in the period that includes the enactment date.
Valuation allowances are provided when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amounts that are
more likely than not expected to be realized based on the weighting of positive and negative evidence. Future
realization of deferred tax assets ultimately depends on the existence of sufficient taxable income of the appropriate

121 – II-17 –

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF AFFIRM

APPENDIX II

character within the carryback or carryforward periods available under the applicable tax law. We regularly review
the deferred tax assets for recoverability based on historical taxable income, projected future taxable income, the
expected timing of the reversals of existing temporary differences, and tax planning strategies; however, in
evaluating the positive evidence available, expectations of future taxable income and projections for growth are
usually not sufficient to overcome the negative evidence of the presence of a three-year cumulative loss. Should
there be a change in the ability to recover deferred tax assets, our income tax provision would increase or decrease in
the period in which the assessment is changed.
The calculation of our tax liabilities involves dealing with uncertainties in the application of complex
federal, state, and foreign tax laws and regulations, and positions taken in our tax returns may be subject to challenge
by the taxing authorities upon examination. In accordance with applicable accounting guidance, uncertain tax
positions are recognized in the financial statements only when it is more likely than not the positions will be
sustained upon examination by the tax authorities, assuming full knowledge of the position and all relevant facts.
Interest and penalties, if any, on income tax uncertainties are classified within income tax expense in the income
statement.

Fair Value of Assets and Liabilities

ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” (“ASC 820”), defines fair value, establishes a
framework for measuring fair value under generally accepted accounting principles, and requires certain disclosures
about fair value measurements. In general, fair values of financial instruments are based upon quoted market prices,
where available. If such quoted market prices are not available, fair value is based upon internally developed models
that use, as inputs, observable market-based parameters to the greatest extent possible.
Additionally, ASC 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the use of inputs used in valuation
methodologies into the following three levels:
  • Level 1: Inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices, unadjusted, for identical assets or liabilities in active markets. A quoted price in an active market provides the most reliable evidence of fair value and shall be used to measure fair value whenever available.

  • Level 2: Inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; or inputs to the valuation methodology that are derived principally from or can be corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.

  • Level 3: Inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement. Level 3 assets and liabilities include financial instruments whose value is determined using discounted cash flow methodologies, as well as instruments for which the determination of fair value requires significant management judgment or estimation.

For equity investments, including equity securities and partnership interests that do not have a “readily
determinable fair value,” or are not traded in a verifiable public market or are restricted for sale in the public market
by a restricted stock legend or otherwise, we present and carry our investments using the measurement alternative
which is cost minus impairment, if any, plus or minus changes resulting from observable price changes in “orderly
transactions,” as defined in ASC Topic 321, "Investments— Equity Securities" ("ASC 321"), for the identical or a
similar investment of the same issuer.

APPENDIX II

Revenue Recognition

Merchant Network Revenue — Revenue from Contracts with Customers

Merchant network revenue consists of merchant fees. Merchant partners (or merchants) are charged a fee
on each transaction processed through the Affirm platform. The fees vary depending on the individual arrangement
between us and each merchant and on the terms of the product offering. The fee is recognized at the point in time the
terms of the executed merchant agreement have been fulfilled and the merchant successfully confirms the
transaction.
Our contracts with merchants are defined at the transaction level and do not extend beyond the service
already provided (i.e., each transaction represents a separate contract). The fees collected from merchants for each
transaction are determined as a percentage of the value of the goods purchased by the consumer from merchants and
consider a number of factors including the end consumer’s credit risk and financing term. We do not have any
capitalized contract costs, and do not carry any material contract balances.
Our service comprises a single performance obligation to merchants to facilitate transactions with
consumers. From time to time, we offer merchants promotional incentives to offer incentives to promote our
platform to their customers, such as fee reductions or rebates. These amounts, as well as refunds, are recorded as a
reduction of revenue and netted against merchant network revenue.
We may originate certain loans via our wholly-owned subsidiaries, with zero or below market interest rates.
In these instances, the par value of the loans originated is in excess of the fair market value of such loans, resulting
in a loss, which we record as a reduction to merchant network revenue when we estimate that these losses will be
recoverable over the term of our contract with the merchant. In order to continue to expand our consumer base, we
may originate loans under certain merchant arrangements that we do not expect to achieve positive revenue. In these
instances, the loss is recorded as sales and marketing expense.
On May 5, 2021, our largest merchant partner, Peloton, announced a voluntary recall of two of its products
following a report by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission released on April 17, 2021. Pursuant to ASC
606, we revised our estimate of the variable consideration associated with revenue earned on the facilitation of
transactions related to the recalled products have recorded a reduction in revenue of $5.4 million during the year
ended June 30, 2021.
A portion of merchant network revenue relates to affiliate network revenue, which is generated when a user
makes a purchase on a merchant’s website after being directed from an advertisement on Affirm’s website or mobile
application. We earn a commission as a percentage of the associated sale. Revenue is recognized at the point in time
when the performance obligation has been fulfilled, which is when the sale occurs.

Virtual Card Network Revenue — Revenue from Contracts with Customers

We have agreements with issuer processors to facilitate transactions through the issuance of virtual debit
cards to be used by consumers at checkout. Consumers can apply for a virtual debit card through the Affirm app and,
upon approval, receive a single-use virtual debit card to be used for their purchase online or offline at a non-
integrated merchant. The virtual debit card is funded at the time a transaction is authorized using cash held by the
issuer processor in a reserve fund, which is ultimately funded and maintained by us. Our originating bank partner
then originates a loan to the consumer once the transaction is confirmed by the merchant. The non-integrated
merchants are charged interchange fees by the issuer processor for virtual debit card transactions, as with all debit
card purchases, and the issuer processor shares a portion of this revenue with us. We also leverage this issuer
processor as a means of integrating certain merchants. Similarly, for these arrangements with integrated merchants,
the merchant is charged interchange fees by the issuer processor and the issuer processor shares a portion of this
revenue with us.
123

– II-19 –

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF AFFIRM

APPENDIX II

Our contracts with issuer processors are defined at the transaction level and do not extend beyond the
service already provided. The fees collected from issuer processors for each transaction are determined as
a percentage of the interchange fees charged on transactions facilitated on the payment processor network, and
revenue is recognized at the point in time the transaction is completed successfully. The fees collected are presented
in revenue, net of associated processing fees. As the issuer processors do not provide distinct services to us, any fees
paid to the issuer processors are offset against collected fees. We have concluded that these fees do not give rise to a
future material right because the pricing of each transaction does not depend on the volume of prior successful
transactions. We do not have any capitalized contract costs, and do not carry any material contract balances.
Our service comprises a single performance obligation to the issuer processors to facilitate transactions
with consumers.

Interest Income

We accrue interest income using the effective interest method. Interest income on a loan is accrued daily,
based on the finance charge disclosed to the consumer, over the term of the loan based upon the principal
outstanding. The accrual of interest on a loan is suspended if a formal dispute with the borrower involving either
Affirm or the merchant of record is opened, or a loan is 120 days past due. Upon the resolution of a dispute with the
consumer, the accrual of interest is resumed and any interest that would have been earned during the disputed period
is retroactively accrued. As of June 30, 2021 and June 30, 2020, the balance of loans held for investment on non-
accrual status was $1.1 million and $0.3 million, respectively.
The account is charged-off in the period if the account becomes 120 days past due or meets other charge-
off policy requirements. Past due status is based on the contractual terms of the loans. Previously recognized interest
receivable from charged-off loans that is accrued but not collected from the consumer is reversed.
Any discounts or premiums on loan receivables created upon the purchase of a loan from our originating
bank partners or upon the origination of a loan are amortized into interest income over the life of the loan using the
effective interest method. The amortization is presented together as interest income in the consolidated statements of
operations and comprehensive loss.

Servicing Income

Servicing fees are contractual fees specified in our servicing agreements with third-party loan owners that
are earned from providing professional services to manage loan portfolios on their behalf. The servicing fee is
calculated on a daily basis by multiplying a set fee percentage (as outlined in the executed agreements with third-
party loan owners) by the outstanding loan principal balance. We recognize this revenue on a monthly basis.

Loss on Loan Purchase Commitment

We purchase certain loans from our originating bank partners that are processed through our platform and
our originating bank partner puts back to us. Under the terms of the agreements with our originating bank partners,
we are generally required to pay the principal amount plus accrued interest for such loans. In certain instances, our
originating bank partners may originate loans with zero or below market interest rates that we are required to
purchase. In these instances, we may be required to purchase the loan for a price in excess of the fair market value of
such loans, which results in a loss. These losses are recognized as loss on loan purchase commitment in our
consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.
Due to the nature of this arrangement with our originating bank partners, we recognize a net liability for
this commitment when the merchant confirms the transaction. This liability is recorded at fair value, which is
determined by the difference between the estimated fair value of the loan and the anticipated purchase price. Upon
purchase, the liability is included in the amortized cost basis of the purchased loan as a discount, which is amortized
into interest income over the life of the loan.

APPENDIX II

Customer Referral Partners

From time to time, we make payments to customer referral partners providing lead generation services for
each transaction processed through our technology platform. We first evaluate whether the customer referral partner
is a customer or a vendor. We consider customer referral partners as customers if we determine they are the principal
to eligible merchants in providing the facilitation of credit service. We consider customer referral partners as
vendors if we determine that we are the principal to eligible merchants in providing the facilitation of credit service.
Payments made to customer referral partners that are not considered to be our customers are expensed over the
period of benefit and recorded in processing and servicing within our consolidated statements of operations and
comprehensive loss.

Advertising Costs

Advertising costs are expensed as incurred and are included within sales and marketing in our consolidated
statements of operations and comprehensive loss. For the years ended June 30, 2021, 2020, and 2019, advertising
costs totaled $48.1 million, $3.3 million and $2.6 million, respectively.

Foreign Currency

We have wholly-owned foreign subsidiaries that use the local currency of their respective country as their
functional currency. Assets and liabilities of these subsidiaries are translated into U.S. dollars at exchange rates
prevailing at the balance sheet dates. Revenue, costs, and expenses of these subsidiaries are translated into U.S.
dollars using daily exchange rates when incurred. Gains and losses resulting from these translations are recorded as a
component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) (“AOCI”). Gains and losses from the remeasurement
of foreign currency transactions into the functional currency are recognized as other income (expense), net, in our
consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.

Stock-Based Compensation

We account for stock-based compensation expense in accordance with the fair value recognition and
measurement guidance, which requires compensation cost for the grant date fair value of stock-based awards to be
recognized over the requisite service period. In addition, we made an accounting policy election to estimate the
expected forfeiture rate for service-based awards and only recognize expense for those stock-based awards expected
to vest. We estimate the forfeiture rate based on our historical experience with stock-based awards that are granted
and forfeited prior to vesting.
The fair value of stock-based awards, granted or modified, is determined on the grant date (or modification
or acquisition dates, if applicable) at fair value, using appropriate valuation techniques.

Service-Based Awards

We record stock-based compensation expense for service-based stock options and restricted stock units
(“RSUs") on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period, which is generally four years. The fair value of
each option on the date of grant is determined using the Black Scholes-Merton option pricing model using the
single-option award approach. Volatility is based on historical volatility rates obtained from comparable publicly-
traded companies that operate in the same or related business as us, as there is a limited time period of historical
market data for our common stock. The risk-free interest rate is determined using a U.S. Treasury rate for the period
that coincides with the expected term set forth. We used the simplified method to determine an estimate of the
expected term of an employee stock option.

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF AFFIRM

APPENDIX II

We account for stock-based awards to non-employees, including consultants, in accordance with ASC
Topic 718, "Compensation — Stock Compensation" ("ASC 718"), in which equity-classified awards are measured
at the grant date fair value and recognized as expense in the period and manner as though we had paid cash in
exchange for goods or services instead of granting a stock-based award.

Performance-Based Awards

We have granted RSUs that vest upon the satisfaction of both service-based and performance-based
conditions. The service-based condition for these awards generally is satisfied over four years. The performance-
based condition is satisfied upon the occurrence of a qualifying event, defined as the earlier of (i) the closing of
certain specific liquidation or change in control transactions, or (ii) an IPO. We record stock-based compensation
expense for performance-based equity awards and stock on an accelerated attribution method over the requisite
service period, which is generally four years, and only if performance-based conditions are considered probable of
being satisfied.
Upon exercise or vesting of a stock-based award, if the tax deduction exceeds the compensation cost that
was previously recorded for financial statement purposes, this will result in an excess tax benefit.

Market-Based Awards

We have granted stock option awards with service-based and performance-based vesting conditions, with
market-based conditions that are incorporated into the grant date fair value. We determined the grant date fair value
of these awards by utilizing a Monte Carlo simulation model that incorporates the possibility that the market-based
conditions may not be satisfied. The Monte Carlo simulation also incorporates assumptions including expected stock
price volatility, expected term, and risk-free interest rates. We estimate the volatility of common stock on the date of
grant based on the weighted-average historical stock price volatility of comparable publicly-traded companies in our
industry group. We estimate the expected term of the award based on various exercise scenarios. The risk-free
interest rate is determined using a U.S. Treasury rate for the period that coincides with the expected term set forth.
We record stock-based compensation expense for market-based equity awards such as RSUs and stock
options on an accelerated attribution method over the requisite service period, and only if performance-based
conditions are considered probable of being satisfied.

Basic and Diluted Net Loss per Common Share

We calculate net income or loss per share using the two-class method required for participating securities.
The two-class method requires income available to common stockholders for the period to be allocated between
common stock and participating securities based upon their respective rights to receive dividends as if all income for
the period had been distributed. Our common stock issued upon the early exercise of stock options and redeemable
convertible preferred stock are participating securities. We consider any shares issued upon early exercise of stock
options, subject to repurchase, to be participating securities because holders of such shares have non-forfeitable
dividend rights in the event a cash dividend is declared on our common stock. These participating securities do not
contractually require the holders of such shares to participate in our losses. As such, net losses for the years
presented were not allocated to our participating securities.
We calculate basic net loss per share attributable to common stockholders by dividing net loss attributable
to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period.
We calculate diluted net loss per share attributable to common stockholders by dividing net loss attributable
to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding after giving consideration
to the dilutive effect of our redeemable convertible preferred stock, stock options, restricted stock units, convertible
debt and common stock warrants that are outstanding during the period. We have generated a net loss in all periods

presented, and therefore, the basic and diluted net loss per share attributable to common stockholders are the same as
the inclusion of the potentially dilutive securities would be anti-dilutive. During the years endedJune 30, 2021, 2020
and 2019, the excess of the repurchase price of preferred stock over its carrying value has been recorded as an
increase to net loss to determine net loss attributable to common stockholders, basic and diluted.

Recently Adopted Accounting Standards

As ofMarch 31, 2021,we no longer qualified as an “emerging growth company” as defined in the
Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012, or the JOBS Act. As such, we are no longer entitled to take advantage
of the exemptions from various reporting requirements applicable to emerging growth companies, including
extended transition periods for complying with new or revised accounting standards. Accordingly, as discussed more
fully below, we adopted certain new or revised accounting standards during theyear endedJune 30, 2021for which
adoption previously had been deferred.

Revenue Recognition

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic
606)” ("ASC 606"). ASC 606 requires revenue to be recognized in an amount that reflects the consideration to
which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for goods or services and also requires additional disclosure
about the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows from customer contracts. Subsequent to
the issuance of ASU 2014-09, the FASB issued several amendments to ASC 606 to clarify or improve the revenue
recognition standard such as principal versus agent considerations in ASU 2016-08, technical corrections and
improvements to ASC 606 in ASU 2016-20, and clarifying the scope of asset derecognition guidance and
accounting for partial sales of nonfinancial asset in ASU 2017-05.
In June 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-05, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) and
Leases (Topic 842): Effective Dates for Certain Entities” ("ASC 842"), which amends the effective dates of ASC
606 and ASC 842 to give immediate relief to certain entities as a result of the widespread adverse economic effects
and business disruptions caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. ASU 2020-05 permits certain entities that have not yet
made statements available for issuance to adopt ASC 606 for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15,
2019, and for interim reporting periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2020. Under
ASU 2020-05, we adopted ASC 606 on July 1, 2020 using the modified retrospective transition method. Under this
method, we evaluated contracts that were not complete as of the date of adoption as if those contracts had been
accounted for under ASC 606. Under the modified retrospective transition approach, periods prior to the adoption
date were not adjusted and continue to be reported in accordance with revenue accounting literature in effect during
those periods. The adoption of ASC 606 did not have a material impact on our revenue arrangements.
ASC 606 explicitly excludes revenue generated in accordance with ASC 310, "Receivables" and ASC 860,
"Transfers and Servicing." Accordingly, we have concluded that interest income, gains on loan sales and servicing
income are not affected by the adoption of ASC 606 and its related amendments. Merchant network revenue and
virtual card network revenue are within the scope of ASC 606.

Stock-Based Compensation

In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-07, “Compensation — Stock Compensation (Topic 718):
Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting” that expands on the scope of ASC 718 to
include stock-based payment transactions for acquiring goods and services from non-employees. For non-public
business entities, the amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim
periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020. Early adoption is permitted, but no earlier than an
entity’s adoption of ASC 606. We adopted ASC 606 effective July 1, 2020 and have correspondingly adopted ASU
2018-07 as of that date. There was no material impact to existing stock-based awards to non-employees.

APPENDIX II

Income Taxes

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the
Accounting for Income Taxes”, which removes certain exceptions related to the approach for intraperiod tax
allocation, recognizing deferred tax liabilities for outside basis differences and calculating income taxes in interim
periods. The guidance also reduces complexity in certain areas, including franchise taxes that are partially based on
income and accounting for tax law changes in interim periods. We early adopted the new standard effective July 1,
2020 on a prospective basis. The adoption of the new standard did not have a material impact on our consolidated
financial statements.

Leases

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842)” ("ASC 842") which substantially
modifies lessee accounting for leases, and requires most leases to be recognized on the balance sheet with enhanced
disclosures. ASC 842 provides that a contract is, or contains, a lease if it conveys the right to control the use of an
identified asset and, accordingly, a lease liability and a related right-of-use ("ROU") asset is recognized at the
commencement date. Leases will be classified as either finance or operating, with classification affecting the pattern
of expense recognition in the income statement. Subsequent to the issuance of ASC 842, the FASB issued several
amendments to ASC 842 to clarify or improve the new leases standard, including the codification and targeted
improvements in ASUs 2018-10 and 2019-01 and the narrow-scope improvements for lessors in ASU 2018-20.
In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-11, “Targeted Improvements to ASC 842,” which included an
option to not restate comparative periods in transition and elect to use the effective date of ASU 2016-02 as the date
of initial application (the “effective date” method).
Following the loss of our emerging growth company status during the third quarter of fiscal 2021, we
adopted ASC 842 with an effective date ofJuly 1, 2020using the modified retrospective transition approach by
applying the standard to all leases existing at the date of initial application and not restating comparative periods.
Refer to Note7.Leasesfor further information on the implementation of the standard.
We have elected the practical expedients permitted under the transition guidance, which allowed us not to
reassess (1) whether any expired or existing contracts are or contain leases, (2) lease classification for any expired or
existing leases and (3) the accounting for any initial direct costs for any expired or existing leases. We also elected
the practical expedients allowing the combination of lease and non-lease components by class of underlying asset.In
addition, we have elected the short-term lease exception and will not recognize ROU assets or lease liabilities for
qualifying leases (leases with a term of less than 12 months from lease commencement).
As a result of the adoption of ASC 842, we recognized ROU assets included in other assetsin the
consolidated balance sheets and lease liabilities for operating leases included in accrued expenses and other
liabilitiesin the consolidated balance sheets of$66.7 millionand$71.2 million, respectively, as ofJuly 1, 2020with
a$0.1 millionin cumulative effect adjustment toaccumulated deficit. The aggregate lease liability differs from the
ROU asset primarily due the unamortized balance of deferred rent, which, prior toJuly 1, 2020, was included in
accrued expenses and other liabilitiesin the consolidated balance sheet. ROU assets are reviewed for impairment,
consistent with other long-lived assets, whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying
amount may not be recoverable. AfteranROU asset is impaired, any remaining balance of the ROU asset is
amortized on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the remaining lease term or the estimated useful life.
We currently have no finance leases. The adoption of the new lease accounting standard hadnomaterial
impacton cash provided by or used in operating, investing or financing activities in our consolidated statements of
cash flows. The adoption of the new lease accounting standard also did not have a material impact our consolidated
statements of operations and comprehensive loss.

Financial Instruments — Credit Losses

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments — Credit Losses (Topic 326)” ("ASC
326"). The amendments replaced the incurred loss impairment methodology with the current expected credit loss
model ("CECL"). Subsequent to the issuance of ASU 2016-13, the FASB issued several amendments to ASC 326 to
clarify or improve the financial instruments credit losses standard such as codification and targeted improvements in
ASUs 2018-19, 2019-04,2019-05, 2019-11 and 2020-03.
Following the loss of our emerging growth company status, we adopted ASC 326 effective July 1, 2020
using the modified retrospective approach for ourloans held for investment,which resulted in an increase in the
allowance for credit lossesof$10.1 millionand a cumulative effect adjustment to the beginning balance of
accumulated deficitof$10.1 million. Results for reporting periods beginning on or afterJuly 1, 2020are presented
under the new standard, while prior period results before the adoption of CECL onJuly 1, 2020 continue to be
reported in accordance with previously applicable GAAP.
Upon adoption of ASC 326, we maintained our current allowance model and included credit loss allowance
assumptions in compliance with ASC 326, which included forecasts for prepayments, recoveries, historical
performance, credit rating, as well as current market conditions and expectations for future market conditions.
Effective April 1, 2021 we implemented a more granular credit loss allowance forecasting model for loans with an
initial term of 18 months or less, while maintaining our existing model for loans with an initial term greater than 18
months.Under our revised methodology, we estimate delinquency transitions at the loan-level based on current loan
status, loan age, credit tier, and other loan characteristics in order to predict the likelihood that any particular loan
will be charged off.
We have included the disclosures required by ASC 326 in Note 4. Loans Held for Investment and
Allowance for Credit Losses.
We have adopted all new accounting pronouncements that are in effect and applicable to us for the period
ended June 30, 2021.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

Reference Rate Reform

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, “Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the
Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting”. Subject to meeting certain criteria, the new guidance
provides optional expedients and exceptions to applying contract modification accounting under existing U.S.
GAAP, to address the expected phase out of the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”). This ASU is effective
for all entities upon issuance as of March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022. In January 2021, the FASB also
issued ASU 2021-01, “Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848)” which provides additional optional expedients and
exceptions applicable to all entities that have derivative instruments that use an interest rate for margining,
discounting, or contract price alignment that is modified as a result of reference rate reform. This ASU is effective
for all entities upon issuance as of January 7, 2021 through December 31, 2022. We are in the process of reviewing
our derivatives agreements, revolving credit agreements and loan sale agreements that utilize LIBOR as the
reference rate and evaluating the impact of Reference Rate Reform. Throughout the remaining effective period for
ASU 2020-04 and ASU 2021-01, we will continue to evaluate the applicable relief measures within each of these
amendments and will determine any impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Convertible Debt Instruments

In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, "Debt — Debt with Conversion and Other Options
(Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging — Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40),” which
simplifies the accounting for convertible instruments. The guidance removes certain accounting models that separate
the embedded conversion features from the host contract for convertible instruments. Either a modified retrospective
method of transition or a fully retrospective method of transition is permissible for the adoption of this standard.
ASU 2020-06 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, including interim periods within those
fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted no earlier than the fiscal year beginning after December 15, 2020. We are in
the process of evaluating the impact of this amendment on our consolidated financial statements.

amount of $7,927.7 million, $4,726.5 million, and $2,744.8 million for the years ended June 30, 2021, 2020, and
2019, respectively.
These loans have a variety of lending terms as well as maturities ranging from one to sixty months. Given
that our loan portfolio focuses on one product segment, point-of-sale unsecured installment loans, we evaluate the
entire portfolio as a single homogeneous loan portfolio.
We closely monitor credit quality for our loan receivables to manage and evaluate our related exposure to
credit risk. Credit risk management begins with initial underwriting, where loan applications are assessed against the
credit underwriting policy and procedures of our originating bank partners, and continues through to full repayment

of a loan. To assess a consumer who requests a loan, we use, among other indicators, internally developed risk
models using detailed information from external sources, such as credit bureaus where available, and internal
historical experience, including the consumer’s prior repayment history on our platform as well as other measures.
We combine these factors to establish a proprietary score as a credit quality indicator.
Our proprietary score (“ITACs”) is assigned to most loans facilitated through our technology platform,
ranging from zero to 100, with 100 representing the highest credit quality and in turn the lowest likelihood of loss.
The ITACs model analyzes the characteristics of a consumer's attributes that are shown to be predictive of both
willingness and ability to repay including, but not limited to: basic features of a consumer's credit profile, a
consumer's prior repayment performance with other creditors, current credit utilization, and legal and policy
changes. When a consumer passes both fraud and credit policy checks, the application is assigned an ITACs score.
ITACs is also used for portfolio performance monitoring. Our credit risk organization closely tracks the distribution
of a consumer ITACs as well as the ITACs of loans to monitor for signs of a changing credit profile within the
portfolio. Repayment performance within each ITACs band is also monitored to support both the integrity of the risk
scoring models and to measure possible changes in consumer behavior amongst various credit tiers.
The following table presents an analysis of the credit quality, by ITACs score, of the amortized cost basis

We maintain an allowance for credit losses at a level that we believe is appropriate to absorb probable
losses inherent in our loans. The allowance for credit losses covers estimated losses for individually assessed loans
and includes estimates which rely on economic conditions, forecasts, and historical loan performance. When loans
are charged off, we recognize this as a charge against the allowance for credit losses. We may continue to attempt to
recover amounts from the respective consumers. The allowance for credit losses on loans is a valuation account that
is deducted from the loans’ amortized cost basis to present the net amount expected to be collected on the loans. It is
comprised of specific allowance for individually assessed loans which are regularly evaluated to maintain a level
adequate to absorb expected losses inherent in the loan portfolio. Refer to Note 2. Summary of Significant

Returnly

On May 1, 2021, Affirm completed a merger transaction with Returnly Technologies, Inc. (“Returnly”), a
leading provider of online return experiences for direct-to-consumer brands. Prior to the merger transaction, Affirm
owned approximately 1% of the outstanding shares of Returnly. By effect of the merger transaction, Affirm acquired
all of the remaining outstanding shares, increasing its equity interest from approximately 1% to 100%. We have
included the financial results of Returnly in our consolidated financial statements from the date of acquisition.
The purchase price for the remaining interest was comprised of (i) approximately $71.5 million in cash and
(ii) 2,989,697 shares of our common stock issued to the shareholders of Returnly at closing. We also issued 304,364
shares of our common stock, which are held in escrow and subject to forfeiture upon the termination of certain
employees or if certain revenue milestones are not met. Because the future payment of the escrowed shares is
contingent on continued employment, the arrangement represents stock-based compensation in the post combination

Kite

On June 1, 2021, Affirm completed the acquisition of technology and intellectual property from Manhattan
Engineering, Inc. and entered into employment arrangements with certain of its employees (“the Kite acquisition”).
The purchase price was comprised of $26.0 million in cash, including $9.0 million held in escrow and subject to
forfeiture if certain employees terminate within a stipulated time period.

Our acquisition of PayBright included consideration transferred and shares held in escrow, contingent upon
the achievement of future milestones. We classified the contingent consideration as a liability and will remeasure the
liability to its fair value at each reporting date until the contingency is resolved.As ofJune 30, 2021, the fair value
of the contingent consideration liability was$147.8 million. For further details on our fair value methodology with
respect to the contingent consideration, see Note 13. Fair Value of Financial Assets and Liabilities.
During the year ended June 30, 2021, we recognized a liability in connection with a commercial agreement
with an enterprise partner of $25.4 million. Fifty percent of this liability is to be settled 180 days after the date of the
final prospectus, or January 12, 2021, and the remaining 50 percent is to be settled on the first year anniversary of
this date.

7. Leases

We lease facilities under operating leases with various expiration dates through 2030. We have the option
to renew or extend our leases ranging from one month to ten years. Some lease agreements include the option to
terminate the lease with prior written notice ranging from 180 days to one year. As of June 30, 2021, we have not
elected to exercise renewal or termination options. Lease terms range from one year to ten years.
Several leases require us to obtain standby letters of credit, naming the lessor as a beneficiary. These letters
of credit act as security for the faithful performance by us of all terms, covenants and conditions of the lease
agreement. The cash collateral and deposits for the letters of credit have been recognized as restricted cash in the
consolidated balance sheets and totaled $9.9 million and $9.7 million as of June 30, 2021 and June 30, 2020,
respectively.
The weighted average remaining lease term as of June 30, 2021 was5.8 years. The discount rate used in
determining the lease liability for each individual lease was derived from a corporate yield curve which
corresponded with the remaining lease term as ofJuly 1, 2020 for leases that existed at adoption and as of the lease
commencement date for leases subsequently entered into afterJuly 1, 2020.
As of June 30, 2021, right-of-use assets of $57.8 million were included in other assets, and the related
operating lease liability totaled $75.0 million and was included in accrued expenses and other liabilities in the
consolidated balance sheet.
For the year ended June 30, 2021, we recognized impairment expense of $11.5 million for several of our

following an employee’s first 90 days of service. Employees may elect to contribute to a traditional 401(k) plan,
which qualifies as a deferred compensation arrangement under Section 401 of the Internal Revenue Code (“IRC”).
In this case, participating employees defer a portion of their pre-tax earnings. Employees may also contribute to a
Roth 401(k) plan using post-tax dollars. We have not made any matching contributions to date.

Health and Welfare Benefits

We provide health and welfare benefits to our employees, including health, dental, prescription drug and
vision for which we are fully-insured. The expense incurred associated with these benefits was $10.5 million, $7.1

9. Commitments and Contingencies

Repurchase Obligation

Under the normal terms of our whole loans sales to third-party investors we may become obligated to
repurchase loans from investors in certain instances where a breach in representation and warranties is identified.
We would only experience a loss if the contractual repurchase price of the loan exceeds the fair value on the
repurchase date. Generally, this would occur where a loan has been identified as subject to verified or suspected
fraud. As of June 30, 2021, the aggregate outstanding balance of loans held by third-party investors or
unconsolidated VIEs was $2,453.9 million, of which we have recorded a repurchase liability of $2.1 million within
accrued expenses and other liabilities.

Legal Proceedings

From time to time, we are subject to legal proceedings and claims in the ordinary course of business. The
results of such matters often cannot be predicted with certainty. In accordance with applicable accounting guidance,
we establish an accrued liability for legal proceedings and claims when those matters present loss contingencies
which are both probable and reasonably estimable. All such liabilities arising from current legal and regulatory
matters have been recorded in accrued expenses and other liabilities in our consolidated balance sheets and these
matters are immaterial.

Concentrations of Credit Risk

Financial instruments that potentially subject us to significant concentrations of credit risk consist
principally of cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash. We maintain our cash and cash equivalents and
restricted cash in accounts at regulated domestic financial institutions and conduct ongoing evaluations of the
creditworthiness of the financial institutions with which we do business.
We are exposed to default risk on both loan receivables purchased from our originating bank partners and
that are self-originated. The ultimate collectability of a substantial portion of the loan portfolio is susceptible to
changes in economic and market conditions. As of both June 30, 2021 and June 30, 2020, approximately 15% of
loan receivables related to customers residing in the state of California. No other states or provinces exceeded 10%
for either period.

Concentrations of Revenue

For the years ended June 30, 2021, 2020, and 2019, approximately 20% , 28%, and 20% of total revenue
was driven by one merchant, respectively.

10. Transactions with Related Parties

In the ordinary course of business, we may enter into transactions with directors, principal officers, their
immediate families and affiliated companies in which they are principal stockholders (commonly referred to as
related parties). Some of our directors, principal officers, and their immediate families have received loans
facilitated by us, in accordance with our regular consumer loan offerings. As of June 30, 2021, the outstanding
balance and interest earned on such accounts is immaterial.

Warehouse Credit Facilities

Through trusts, we entered into warehouse credit facilities with certain lenders to finance the purchase and
origination of our loans. Each trust entered into a credit agreement and security agreement with a third-party as
administrative agent and a national banking association as collateral trustee and paying agent. Borrowings under
these agreements are referred to as funding debt and these proceeds from the borrowings can only be used for the
purposes of facilitating loan funding and origination, with advance rates ranging from 83% to 88% of the total
collateralized balance. These trusts are bankruptcy-remote special-purpose vehicles in which creditors do not have
recourse against the general credit of Affirm. These revolving facilities mature between 2023 and 2026, and subject
to covenant compliance, generally permit borrowings up to 12 months prior to the final maturity date of each
respective facility. As of June 30, 2021, the aggregate commitment amount of these facilities was $1,825.0 million
on a revolving basis, of which $585.2 million was drawn, with $1,239.8 million remaining available. Some of the
loans purchased from the originating bank partners are pledged as collateral for borrowings in our facilities. The
unpaid principal balance of these loans totaled $664.1 million and $990.7 million as of June 30, 2021 and June 30,
2020, respectively.
Borrowings under these warehouse credit facilities bear interest at an annual benchmark rate of LIBOR or
at an alternative commercial paper rate (which is either (i) the per annum rate equivalent to the weighted-average of
the per annum rates at which all commercial paper notes were issued by certain lenders to fund advances or maintain
loans, or (ii) the daily weighted-average of LIBOR, as set forth in the applicable credit agreement), plus a spread
ranging from 1.70% to 4.00%. Interest is payable monthly. In addition, these agreements require payment of a
monthly unused commitment fee ranging from 0.20% to 0.75% per annum on the undrawn portion available.
These agreements contain certain customary negative covenants and financial covenants including
maintaining certain levels of liquidity, leverage, and tangible net worth. As of June 30, 2021, we were in compliance
with all applicable covenants in the agreements.

Other Funding Facilities

Prior to our acquisition of PayBright on January 1, 2021, PayBright entered into various credit facilities
utilized to finance the origination of loan receivables in Canada. Similar to our warehouse credit facilities,
143

– II-39 –

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF AFFIRM

APPENDIX II

borrowings under these agreements are referred to as funding debt, and proceeds from the borrowings may only be
used for the purposes of facilitating loan funding and origination. These facilities are secured by PayBright loan
receivables pledged to the respective facility as collateral, mature in 2022, and bear interest based on a commercial
paper rate plus a spread ranging from 1.25% to 4.25%.
As of June 30, 2021, the aggregate commitment amount of these facilities was $177.3 million on a
revolving basis, of which $90.3 million was drawn, with $87.0 million remaining available. The unpaid principal
balance of loans pledged to these facilities totaled $74.1 million as of June 30, 2021.
These agreements contain certain customary negative covenants and financial covenants including
maintaining certain levels of liquidity, leverage, and tangible net worth at the PayBright subsidiary level. As of
June 30, 2021, we were in compliance with all applicable covenants in the agreements.

Repurchase Agreement

On June 16, 2021, we entered into a sale and repurchase agreement pursuant to which we sold securities to
a counterparty with an obligation to repurchase at a future date and price. As of June 30, 2021, we had $13.9 million
in debt outstanding under our repurchase agreement disclosed within funding debt on the consolidated balance
sheets. The outstanding debt relates to $16.2 million in pledged securities disclosed within securitization notes
receivable and residual certificates (at fair value) on the consolidated balance sheets and will be amortized through
regular principal and interest payments on the pledged securities. The interest rate is 1.07% on the senior pledged
securities and 2.62% on the residual certificate pledged securities. The contractual repurchase date is in September
2021. Prior to the repurchase date and subject to mutual agreement by Affirm and the counterparty, we may enter
into a repurchase date extension subject to market interest rates on such extension date.

Convertible Debt

In April 2020, we entered into an agreement with various investors pursuant to which we issued convertible
notes in an aggregate principal amount of $75.0 million with maturity dates in April 2021 and bearing interest at a
rate of 1.00% per annum. The principal and any unpaid accrued interest of each convertible note automatically
converts into shares of redeemable convertible preferred stock upon the closing of financing in which we receive no
less than $50.0 million in proceeds from the issuance of redeemable convertible preferred stock.
Upon completion of the Series G equity financing in September 2020, the convertible notes were redeemed
under the next equity financing feature, in which the proceeds from the issuance of redeemable convertible preferred
stock was not less than $50.0 million. The aggregate outstanding principal and accrued interest balance of the
convertible notes of $75.5 million was converted into 4,444,321 shares of Series G-1 redeemable convertible
preferred stock at a conversion price of $16.9374 per share. This conversion resulted in issuance of $88.6 million of
Series G-1 redeemable convertible preferred stock at a fair value of $19.9263 per share. The total proceeds were
allocated between the liability component of $46.5 million and equity component of $42.1 million. The conversion
of the convertible notes was accounted for as a debt extinguishment, which resulted in a gain of $30.1 million. This
gain represented the difference between the carrying value of the debt at the time of extinguishment and the
allocated proceeds. This gain was recorded in other income (expense), net on the consolidated statements of
operations and comprehensive loss. The reacquisition of the beneficial conversion feature was measured using the
intrinsic value of the conversion option at the extinguishment date, which totaled $42.1 million, and was recorded in
equity.

Revolving Credit Facility

On January 19, 2021, we entered into a revolving credit agreement with a syndicate of commercial banks
for a $185.0 million unsecured revolving credit facility. This facility bears interest at a rate equal to, at our option,
either (a) a Eurodollar rate determined by reference to adjusted LIBOR for the interest period, plus an applicable
144

margin of 2.50% per annum or (b) a base rate determined by reference to the highest of (i) the federal funds rate plus
0.50% per annum, (ii) the rate last quoted by The Wall Street Journal as the U.S. prime rate, and (iii) the one-month
adjusted LIBOR plus 1.00% per annum, in each case, plus an applicable margin of 1.50% per annum. The revolving
credit agreement has a final maturity date of January 19, 2024. The facility contains certain covenants and
restrictions, including certain financial maintenance covenants, and requires payment of a monthly unused
commitment fee of 0.35% per annum on the undrawn balance available. There are no borrowings outstanding under
the facility at June 30, 2021.

12. Securitizations and Variable Interest Entities

Consolidated VIEs

We consolidate VIEs when we are deemed to be the primary beneficiary.

Warehouse Credit Facilities

We established certain entities, deemed to be VIEs, to enter into warehouse credit facilities for the purpose
of purchasing loans from our originating bank partners. Refer to Note 11. Debt for additional information. The
creditors of the VIEs have no recourse to the general credit of Affirm and the liabilities of the VIEs can only be
settled by the respective VIE’s assets; however, as the servicer of the loans pledged to our warehouse funding
facilities, we have the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the VIEs' economic performance.
In addition, we retain significant economic exposure to the pledged loans and therefore, we are the primary
beneficiary.

Securitizations

In connection with our asset-backed securitization program, we sponsor and establish trusts (deemed to be
VIEs) to ultimately purchase loans facilitated by our platform. Securities issued from our asset-backed
securitizations are senior or subordinated, based on the waterfall criteria of loan payments to each security class. The
subordinated residual interests issued from these transactions are first to absorb credit losses in accordance with the
waterfall criteria. For these VIEs, the creditors have no recourse to the general credit of Affirm and the liabilities of
the VIEs can only be settled by the respective VIEs’ assets. Additionally, the assets of the VIEs can be used only to
settle obligations of the VIEs.
We consolidate securitization VIEs when we are deemed to be the primary beneficiary and therefore have
the power to direct the activities that most significantly affect the VIEs’ economic performance and a variable
interest that could potentially be significant to the VIE.Through our role as the servicer, we have both the power to
direct the activities that most significantly affect the VIEs’ economic performance. In evaluating whether we have a
variable interest that could potentially be significant to the VIE, we consider our retained interests. We also earn a
servicing fee which has a senior distribution priority in the payment waterfall.
In evaluating whether we are the primary beneficiary, management considers both qualitative and
quantitative factors regarding the nature, size and form of our involvement with the VIEs. Management assesses
whether we are the primary beneficiary of the VIEs on an ongoing basis.
Where we consolidate the securitization trusts, the loans held in the securitization trusts are included in
loans held for investment, and the notes sold to third-party investors are recorded in notes issued by securitization
trusts in the consolidated balance sheets.
For the year ended June 30, 2021, we consolidated Affirm Asset Securitization Trust 2020-Z1 (“2020-Z1”),
Affirm Asset Securitization Trust 2020-A (“2020-A”), Affirm Asset Securitization Trust 2020-Z2 ("2020-Z2") and

APPENDIX II

Affirm Asset Securitization Trust 2021-A (“2021-A”). Each securitization trust issued senior notes and residual
certificates to finance the purchase of the loans facilitated by our platform. At the closing of each securitization, we
contributed loans, facilitated through our technology platform and purchased from our originating bank partners,
with an aggregate outstanding principal balance of $1,856.8 million. The 2020-Z1 and 2020-Z2 securitizations are
secured by static pools of loans contributed at closing, whereas the 2020-A and 2021-A securitization are revolving
and we may contribute additional loans from time to time until the end of the revolving period. For the 2020-Z2
securitization, we purchased $27.9 million of loan receivables from our third-party loan buyers which were then
contributed to the trust.
For each securitization, the residual certificates represent the right to receive all the residual cash collected
on the loans held by the securitization trust after paying off the senior notes. All the senior notes were sold to third-
party investors. For 2020-Z1, 2020-A and 2021-A, we retained 100% of the residual certificates issued by the
securitization trusts. For 2020-Z2, we retained 93.3% of the residual certificates issued by the securitization trust,
and a third-party investor holds the remaining 6.7% of the residual certificates in 2020-Z2. The residual trust
certificates held by third-party investors are measured at fair value using a discounted cash flow model, and
presented within accrued expenses and other liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets. In addition to the retained
residual certificates, our continued involvement includes loan servicing responsibilities over the life of the
underlying loans.

2020-Z1

On July 8, 2020, the notes under the 2020-Z1 securitization were issued as a single class: Class A in the
amount of $150.0 million (the “2020-Z1 notes”). The 2020-Z1 notes bear interest at a fixed rate of 3.46% and have a
maturity date of October 15, 2024. Principal and interest payments began in September 2020 and are payable
monthly. These 2021-Z1 notes are recorded at amortized cost on the consolidated balance sheet. The associated debt
issuance costs, which totaled $0.7 million as of June 30, 2021, are deferred and amortized into interest expense over
the contractual life of the notes. The 2020-Z1 notes held by third-party investors and the unamortized debt issuance
costs are included in notes issued by securitization trusts with a balance of $75.1 million on the consolidated balance

Unconsolidated VIEs

For the year ended June 30, 2021, Affirm Asset Securitization Trust 2021-Z1 (“2021-Z1”) was an
unconsolidated VIE. As the servicer of the loans held within the trust, we have the power to direct the activities that
are most significant to the performance of the VIE. However, we did not retain significant economic exposure
through our variable interests and therefore we determined that we are not the primary beneficiary as of June 30,
2021.

2021-Z1

On May 5, 2021, the notes under 2021-Z1 securitization were issued as a single class: Class A in the
amount of $320.0 million(the “2021-Z1 notes”).The 2021-Z1 notes bear interest at a fixed rate of1.07%and have
a maturity date ofAugust 15, 2025.Principal and interest payments began in June 2021 and are payable monthly.
The 2021-Z1 securitization is secured by a static pool of loans which were contributed at theclosing dateto
the 2021-Z1 trust. The loans contributed at closing were facilitated through our technology platform and purchased
from our originating bank partners, with an aggregate outstanding principal balance of$351.0 million.Of the loans
sold to the 2021-Z1 trust, we purchased$41.4 millionof loan receivables from one of our third-party loan buyers,
which were contributed to the trust at closing.
At closing, we retained 5% of the 2021-Z1 notes and 86.9% of the residual certificates issued by the 2021-
Z1 trust. The third-party loan contributor received 13.1% of the residual certificates at closing. OnMay 17, 2021, we
sold a majority of the residual certificates retained at closing, comprising81.9%of the par value, to five third-party
investors. Subsequent to this sale, we retained only a5%vertical interest in the 2021-Z1 trust via our ownership of
5%par amount of the 2021-Z1 notes and5%par amount of the residual interests. We were required to retain these
interests for compliance with U.S. risk retention rules.
We initially consolidated the 2021-Z1 trust at closing due to retaining a majority of the residual interest.
However, upon completing the subsequent third-party sale of81.9%of the residual certificates onMay 17, 2021, we
determined that we no longer had significant economic exposure through our variable interests and as such we
determined that we were no longer the primary beneficiary as of this date.
Upon consolidating the 2021-Z1 trust, we recognized a gain of$16.7 million, primarily driven by the gain
on sale of the loans sold to the trust at closing.
We did not have any unconsolidated VIEs in prior periods.The following table presents the aggregate
carrying value of financial assets and liabilities for unconsolidated VIEs wherewe hold a variable interest but are
not the primary beneficiary as of June 30, 2021:

Additionally, we may experience a loss due to future repurchase obligations resulting from breaches in
representations and warranties in our securitization and third-party sale agreements. In connection with 2021-Z1,
this amount was not material as of June 30, 2021.

13. Fair Value of Financial Assets and Liabilities

ASC 820, "Fair Value Measurement" ("ASC 820") establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the use
of inputs used in valuation methodologies into the following three levels:
  • Level 1: Inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices, unadjusted, for identical assets or liabilities in active markets. A quoted price in an active market provides the most reliable evidence of fair value and shall be used to measure fair value whenever available.

  • Level 2: Inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; or inputs to the valuation methodology that are derived principally from or can be corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.

  • Level 3: Inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement. Level 3 assets and liabilities include financial instruments whose value is determined using discounted cash flow methodologies, as well as instruments for which the determination of fair value requires significant management judgment or estimation.

Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis (Level 2)

Securitization Notes Receivable

As of the year ended June 30, 2021, we held a retained interest in senior notes issued by our 2021-Z1
securitization. Refer to Note 12. Securitizations and Variable Interest Entities for a description of the securitization
notes receivable. As of the year ended June 30, 2021, the securitization notes receivables are recorded at fair value
based on an observable market-based transaction price and are classified as Level 2.

Derivative Instruments (Interest Rate Cap Agreement and Constant Maturity Swaps)

As of the year ended June 30, 2021, we had one interest rate cap agreement outstanding to manage interest
costs and the risk associated with variable interest rates. This derivative has not been designated as a hedging
instrument.As of the year June 30, 2021 the interest rate cap is classified as Level 2 and recorded at fair value,
based on prices quoted for similar financial instruments in markets that are not active. The interest rate cap is
presented within other assets or accrued expenses and other liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets. Any
changes in the fair value of the financial instrument is reflected in other income (expense), net, on the consolidated
statements of operations and comprehensive loss.
During the year ended June 30, 2020, we acquired a series of constant maturity swaps from an institutional
bank for the purpose of offsetting variable cash flows related to loan sale pricing fluctuations with a third-party loan
buyer. These derivatives have not been designated as hedging instruments. The constant maturity swaps are recorded
at fair value, based on prices quoted for similar financial instruments in markets that are not active, and are presented
within other assets or accrued expenses and other liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets, together with the
collateral amount required by the agreements. Any changes in the fair value of these financial instruments are
reflected in other income (expense), net, on the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.

Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis using Significant Unobservable Inputs (Level 3)

We evaluate our financial assets and liabilities subject to fair value measurements on a recurring basis to
determine the appropriate level at which to classify them each reporting period. Since our servicing assets and
liabilities, performance fee liability, residual trust certificates, contingent consideration, and profit share liability do
not trade in an active market with readily observable prices, we use significant unobservable inputs to measure fair
value. This determination requires significant judgments to be made.

Servicing Assets and Liabilities

We sold loans with an unpaid balance of $3,232.9 million, $2,664.4 million, and $1,014.2 million for the
years ended June 30, 2021, 2020, and 2019, respectively, for which we retained servicing rights.
As of June 30, 2021 and June 30, 2020, we serviced loans which we sold with a remaining unpaid principal
balance of $2,453.9 million and $1,365.6 million, respectively.
We use discounted cash flow models to arrive at an estimate of fair value. Significant assumptions used in
the valuation of our servicing rights are as follows:

Adequate Compensation

We estimate adequate compensation as the rate a willing market participant would require for servicing
loans with similar characteristics as those in the serviced portfolio.
151

– II-47 –

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF AFFIRM

APPENDIX II

Discount Rate

Estimated future payments to be received under servicing agreements are discounted as a part of
determining the fair value of the servicing rights. For servicing rights on loans, the discount rate reflects the time
value of money and a risk premium intended to reflect the amount of compensation market participants would
require.

Net Default Rate

We estimate the timing and probability of early loan payoffs, loan defaults and write-offs, thus affecting the
projected unpaid principal balance and expected term of the loan, which are used to project future servicing revenue
and expenses.
We earned $24.7 million, $14.8 million, and $5.1 million of servicing income for the years ended June 30,
2021, 2020, and 2019, respectively.
As of June 30, 2021 and June 30, 2020, the aggregate fair value of the servicing assets was measured at
$2.3 million and $2.1 million, respectively, and presented within other assets on the consolidated balance sheets. As
of June 30, 2021 and June 30, 2020, the aggregate fair value of the servicing liabilities was measured at $4.0 million
and $1.5 million, respectively, and presented within accrued expenses and other liabilities on the consolidated

Performance Fee Liability

In accordance with our agreements with our originating bank partners, we pay a fee for each loan that is
fully repaid by the consumer, due at the end of the period in which the loan is fully repaid. We recognize a liability
upon the purchase of a loan for the expected future payment of the performance fee. This liability is measured using
a discounted cash flow model and recorded at fair value and presented within accrued expenses and other liabilities
on the consolidated balance sheets. Any changes in the fair value of the liability are reflected in other income
(expense), net, on the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.

securitization trust. Residual trust certificates held by third-party investor(s) are measured at fair value using a
discounted cash flow model, and presented within accrued expenses and other liabilities on the consolidated balance
sheets. Any changes in the fair value of the liability are reflected in other income (expense), net, on the consolidated
statements of operations and comprehensive loss. The following table summarizes the activity related to the fair
value of the residual trust certificates held by third-parties (in thousands):

Significant unobservable inputs used for our Level 3 fair value measurement of the residual trust
certificates held by third-parties are the discount rate, loss rate, and prepayment rate. Significant increases or
decreases in any of the inputs in isolation could result in a significantly lower or higher fair value measurement.

Retained Beneficial Interests in Unconsolidated VIEs

As of June 30, 2021, the Company held residual trust certificates with an aggregate fair value of$0.9
millionin connection with the 2021-Z1 securitization, which is an unconsolidated securitization. The balances
consist of residual trust certificates corresponding to the5%economic risk retention the Company is required to
maintain as the securitization sponsor. Refer to Note 12. Securitizations and Variable Interest Entitiesfor further
description of the 2021-Z1 securitization trust.
These assets are measured at fair value using a discounted cash flow model, and presented within
securitization notes receivable and residual certificates (at fair value)on the consolidated balance sheets. Changes in
the fair value, other than declines in fair value due to credit recognized as an impairment, are reflected in other

Contingent Consideration

Our acquisition of PayBright included consideration transferred and shares held in escrowwhere the shares
releasedfrom escroware contingent upon the achievement of future milestones. We classified the contingent
consideration as a liability and will remeasure the liability to its fair value at each reporting date until the
contingency is resolved.The acquisition date fair value of the contingent consideration liability was estimated using
a Monte Carlo simulation.The number of shares released from escrow is determined based on simulated revenue,
and the acquisition date fair value of the contingent consideration is equal to the number of shares released from
escrow multiplied by the simulated share price, discounted at the risk-free rate.The change in fair value of the
contingent consideration at each reporting date is recognized as a component of other income (expense), netin the
consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss for the respective period.

Profit Share Liability

During the year ended June 30, 2021, we entered into a commercial agreement with an enterprise partner,
pursuant to which we are obligated to share in the profitability of transactions facilitated by our platform on their
properties. Upon capture of a loan under this program, we record a liability associated with the estimated future
profit to be shared over the life of the loan based on estimated program profitability levels. This liability is measured
using a discounted cash flow model and recorded at fair value and presented within accrued expenses and other
liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets.

legally available for distribution shall be distributed ratably among the holders of the redeemable convertible
preferred stock in proportion to the preferential amount that each such holder is otherwise entitled to receive.
After payment has been made to the holders of the redeemable convertible preferred stock of their full
respective preferential amounts, all of the remaining assets of the Company shall be distributed ratably among the
holders of common stock.

Voting

The holders of redeemable convertible preferred stock have the same voting rights as a holder of common
stock. The holders of common stock and redeemable convertible preferred stock vote together as a single class in all
matters. Each holder of common stock is entitled to one vote for each share of common stock held, and each holder
of redeemable convertible preferred stock is entitled to the number of votes equal to the number of shares of
common stock into which such shares of redeemable convertible preferred stock could then be converted. The
holders of the common stock, voting separately as a single class, are entitled to elect three directors of the

are entitled to elect two of the corporation. The holders of the Series C redeemable convertible preferred stock,
voting separately as a single class, are entitled to elect one director of the corporation. The holders of the Series D
redeemable convertible preferred stock, voting separately as a single class, are entitled to elect one director of the

are entitled to elect one director of the corporation. The holders of the common stock and redeemable convertible
preferred stock (excluding the Series E redeemable convertible preferred stock), voting together as a single class, on
an as converted basis, are entitled to elect all other directors of the corporation.

Conversion

Each share of redeemable convertible preferred stock is convertible to common stock at the option of the
holder. Such conversion is determined by dividing the original issue price by the then-effective conversion price
(adjusted for any stock dividends, combinations, or splits with respect to such shares). As of June 30, 2020, each
share of redeemable convertible preferred stock was convertible into one share of common stock.
Each share of redeemable convertible preferred stock is automatically converted into shares of common
stock at the conversion rate then in effect for such series of redeemable convertible preferred stock immediately
upon the earlier of (i) the Company’s sale of its common stock in a firm commitment underwritten public offering
pursuant to a registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, resulting in a post-offering market
capitalization of the Company of at least $2 billion and for the total offering with gross proceeds to the Company of
not less than $100 million or (ii) the date or upon the occurrence of an event, specified by written consent or
agreement of each of (A) the holders of at least sixty percent of the Series B redeemable convertible preferred stock
then outstanding, voting as a separate series, (B) the holders of at least seventy-five percent of the Series C
redeemable convertible preferred stock then outstanding, voting as a separate series and (C) the holders of at least a
majority of the Series D redeemable convertible preferred stock then outstanding, voting as a separate series, (D) the
holders of a majority of the Series E redeemable convertible preferred stock then outstanding, voting as separate
series, and (E) either (x) the holders of at least eighty-five percent of the then outstanding shares of Series F
redeemable convertible preferred stock, voting as a separate series, or (y) the holders of a majority of the then
outstanding shares of Series F redeemable convertible preferred stock, voting as a separate series, provided that such
majority includes the Special Series F Investor Vote, and (F) the holders of a majority of the Series G redeemable
convertible preferred stock then outstanding, voting as a separate series.

Redemption

The redeemable convertible preferred stock does not have any redemption rights that are at the election of
the holders. However, the redeemable convertible preferred stock is entitled to payment upon the occurrence of
certain contingent liquidity events that do not cause the entire entity to be liquidated, such as certain change of
control provisions. As it relates to payment upon the occurrence of a contingent event, we evaluated the redeemable
convertible preferred stock in accordance with the guidance in ASC 480, “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity,”
and determined that the payment of liquidation amounts due upon the occurrence of a contingent event is not solely
within our control and accordingly the redeemable convertible preferred stock is classified in temporary equity in the
consolidated balance sheet. As it relates to the accretion to redemption value, the redeemable convertible preferred
stock is not currently redeemable, nor is it probable that the instrument will become redeemable, as it is only
redeemable upon the occurrence of a contingent event that is not probable to occur. Accordingly, no accretion has
been recognized for the redeemable convertible preferred stock and it will not be accreted until it is probable that the
shares will become redeemable.

52%, and a risk-free rate of 0.62%. In connection with these warrants, we recognized an asset of $270.6 million at
June 30, 2021 associated with the fair value of the warrants, which were fully vested as of June 30, 2021. This asset
is recorded in our consolidated balance sheets within other assets. Refer to Note 6. Balance Sheet Components for

15. Equity and Cash Incentive Plans

2012 Equity Incentive Plan

Under our 2012 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), we may grant incentive and nonqualified stock options,
restricted stock, and RSUs to employees, officers, directors, and consultants. As of June 30, 2021, the maximum
number of shares of common stock reserved for issuance under the Plan is 118,374,202 shares. As of June 30, 2021
and June 30, 2020, there were 29,793,755 and 4,904,531 shares of common stock, respectively, available for future
grants under the Plan.

Stock Options

Under the Plan, stock options may be granted at a price per share not less than 100% of the fair market
value at the date of grant. If the option is granted to a stockholder who holds 10% of our common stock or more,
then the exercise price per share shall not be less than 110% of the fair market value per share of common stock on
the grant date. For stock options granted before our IPO in January 2021, the minimum expiration period is 7 years
or 10 years from the date of grant. For stock options granted after our IPO, the minimum expiration period is 3
months after termination or 10 years from the date of grant. Stock options generally vest over a period of 4 years or
with 25% vesting on the 12 month anniversary of the employment commencement date, and the remaining on a pro-
rata basis each month over the next 3 years.

APPENDIX II

The weighted-average grant date fair value of employee options granted for the years ended June 30, 2021,
2020, and 2019, was $59.83, $3.26, and $4.66, respectively. The aggregate intrinsic value of options exercised was
approximately $706.7 million, $3.1 million, and $24.3 million for the years ended June 30, 2021, 2020, and 2019,
respectively. The total fair value of stock options vested during the years ended June 30, 2021, 2020, and 2019 was
$97.4 million, $53.9 million, and $26.0 million, respectively.
Stock-based compensation expense for all stock-based awards is based on the grant-date fair value on a
straight-line basis over the requisite service period of the awards, which is generally the option vesting term of four
years. The fair value of each option on the date of grant is determined using the Black Scholes-Merton option
pricing model using the single-option award approach with the weighted-average assumptions set forth in the table
below. Volatility is based on historical volatility rates obtained from certain public companies that operate in the
same or related business as us since there is a limited period of historical market data for our common stock. The
risk-free interest rate is determined using a U.S. Treasury rate for the period that coincides with the expected term
set forth. We used the simplified method to determine an estimate of the expected term of an employee share option.
Year Ended June 30, Year Ended June 30, Year Ended June 30,
2021 2020 2019
Volatility 46% 45% 54%
Risk-free interest rate 0.70% - 1.05% 0.28% - 1.76% 1.91% - 3.07%
Expected term (in years) 6.35 5.87 6
Expected dividend
As of June 30, 2021, unrecognized compensation expense related to unvested stock options was
approximately $140.6 million. The weighted-average period over which such compensation expense will be
recognized is approximately 5.33 years.

Stock Options for Non-Employees

In accounting for stock options to non-employees, the fair value of services related to the options granted is
recorded as an expense as these services are provided to the Company over the relevant service periods. We
remeasure any non-vested, non-employee options to fair value at the end of each reporting period using the Black
Scholes-Merton option pricing model.

Stock Options with Early Exercise Rights

In accordance with the Plan, we allow for early exercise of stock options while retaining the right to
repurchase any unvested options upon termination at the original exercise price. The proceeds received from early
exercise of stock options has been recorded within accrued expenses and other liabilities on the consolidated balance
sheets. For the years ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, the early exercise liability totaled $0.9 million and $0.2 million,
respectively.

Value Creation Award

In connection with an overall review of the compensation of Max Levchin, our Chief Executive Officer, in
advance of the IPO, and taking into account Mr. Levchin’s leadership since the inception of the Company, the
comparatively modest level of cash compensation he had received from the Company during his many years of
service, and that he did not hold any unvested equity awards, the Company's Board of Directors approved a long-
term, multi-year performance-based stock option grant providing Mr. Levchin with the opportunity to earn the right
to purchase up to 12,500,000 shares of the Company's Class A common stock (the “Value Creation Award”). As
discussed below, the Value Creation Award will only be earned, if at all, in the event the price of our Class A

common stock attains stock price hurdles that are significantly in excess of theCompany's IPO price per share, over
a period of five years, subject to Mr. Levchin’s continued service to the Company.
The Value Creation Award is divided into ten tranches, each of which Mr. Levchin may earn by satisfying
a performance condition within a five-year period following the IPO. The performance condition for each tranche
will be satisfied on the date the 90 average trading day volume weighted share price of the Company’s Class A
common stock exceeds certain specified stock price hurdles, presented in the table below, which were determined
based on a target percentage of share price appreciation from the IPO price. Once earned as a result of satisfying the
performance condition, the options will vest and become exercisable over a five-year period that commenced at the
time of the IPO, subject to Mr. Levchin’s continued service to the Company, in annual amounts equal to 15%, 15%,
20%, 25% and 25%, respectively. The per share exercise price of the Value Creation Awardis$49.00, the price to
the public in the IPO.

We estimated the fair value of the Value Creation Award granted with market conditions on the grant date
using a Monte Carlo simulation model. We recognize stock-based compensation on these awards on an accelerated
attribution method over the requisite service period, and only if performance-based conditions are considered
probable of being satisfied. During the year ended June 30, 2021, we incurred stock-based compensation expense of
$83.9 million associated with the Value Creation Award as a component of general and administrative expense
within the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.
As of June 30, 2021, unrecognized compensation expense related to the Value Creation Award was
approximately $367.2 million. The period over which such compensation expense will be recognized is
approximately 4.50 years.

Restricted Stock Units

During the year ended June 30, 2021, we awarded 11,860,237 RSUs to certain employees under the Plan.
RSUs granted prior to the IPO were subject to two vesting conditions: a service-based vesting condition (i.e.,
employment over a period of time) and a performance-based vesting condition (i.e., a liquidity event in the form of
either a change of control or an initial public offering, each as defined in the Plan), both of which must be met in
order to vest. We record stock-based compensation expense for performance-based equity awards and stock on an
accelerated attribution method over the requisite service period, which is generally four years, and only if
performance-based conditions are considered probable of being satisfied. RSUs granted after IPO are subject to a
service-based vesting condition. We record stock-based compensation expense for service-based RSUs on a straight-
line basis over the requisite service period, which is generally four years.

Upon our IPO, we recognized $77.8 million of stock-based compensation expense for awards with a
performance-based vesting condition satisfied at IPO. Shares were then issued related to the vesting of the RSUs
with such performance-based vesting conditions. To meet the related tax withholding requirements, we withheld
approximately 1.0 million of the 2.6 million shares of common stock issued. Based on the closing trading market
price on the day of IPO of $97.24 per share, the tax withholding obligation was approximately $102.5 million. As a
result of stock-based compensation expense for vested and unvested RSUs upon the IPO, we recorded an additional
deferred tax asset that is offset by a full valuation allowance.
In connection with the acquisition of Returnly on May 1, 2021, we issued 304,364 shares of our common
stock which are held in escrow. Because the future payment of the escrowed shares is contingent on continued
employment of certain employees, the arrangement represents stock-based compensation in the post combination
period. The grant-date fair value was estimated based on the value of the shares at the date of closing. The escrowed
shares have a requisite service period of two years and contain a performance-based vesting condition (i.e., the
achievement of certain revenue targets). We record stock-based compensation expense on a straight-line basis for
each tranche over the requisite service period, as long as the performance-based conditions are considered probable
of being satisfied.

Cash Incentive Plan

On March 4, 2021, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors approved the terms of a cash
incentive plan (the “Fiscal 2021 Cash Incentive Plan”) for its senior executives who do not participate in a Company
sales incentive plan. The Fiscal 2021 Cash Incentive Plan provides such individuals with the opportunity to earn
cash incentive plan awards based upon the achievement of Company performance goals during the second half of
the Company’s 2021 fiscal year (the “Performance Period”). The target incentive plan award for each senior
executive is determined by multiplying the senior executive’s target percentage by the total amount of his or her
base pay received during the Performance Period.We recorded expense related to the cash incentive plan of$1.9
million for theyearendedJune 30, 2021. As ofJune 30, 2021, we had accrued$1.9 millionrelated to the cash

We continue to recognize a full valuation allowance against our U.S. federal and state as well as the
majority of our foreign net deferred tax assets. This determination was based on the assessment of the available
positive and negative evidence to estimate whether sufficient future taxable income will be generated to utilize the
existing deferred tax assets. A significant piece of objective negative evidence evaluated was the cumulative loss
incurred by the Company for the years ended June 30, 2021, 2020, and 2019. The presence of a three-year
cumulative loss limits the ability to consider other subjective evidence, such as our expectations of future taxable

income and projections for growth. The valuation allowance increased by $387.7 million during the year ended June
30, 2021.
At June 30, 2021, we had pretax U.S. federal net operating loss ("NOL") carryforwards of approximately
$1,335.9 million, state NOL carryforwards of $1,608.8 million, and foreign NOL carryforwards of $41.4 million
from the acquisition of PayBright. If not utilized, certain U.S. federal and state NOL carryforwards will begin to
expire in 2029, whereas others have an unlimited carryforward period, and foreign NOL carryforwards will begin to
expire in 2039. Additionally, as of June 30, 2021, we also had state tax credit carryforwards of $2.6 million, which
will begin to expire in 2024 if not utilized.
Of the above NOL carryforwards, approximately $43.0 million pretax U.S. federal NOL carryforwards and
$39.0 million state NOL carryforwards are from domestic acquisitions, which may be subject to an annual utilization
limitation under Internal Revenue Code Section 382.
The future utilization of all NOL and tax credit carryforwards may be subject to an annual limitation,
pursuant to Internal Revenue Code Sections 382 and 383 and similar state provisions, due to ownership changes that
may have occurred previously or that could occur in the future. Any limitation may result in the expiration of all or a
portion of the NOL carryforwards before utilization.
We did not have any material unrecognized tax benefits for the years ended June 30, 2021, 2020, and 2019.
We do not expect the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits to significantly increase or decrease in the next
twelve months.
Interest and penalties on unrecognized tax benefits are recorded as a component of tax expense. During the
years ended June 30, 2021, 2020, and 2019, we did not recognize accrued interest and penalties related to
unrecognized tax benefits.
We file U.S. federal and state income tax returns as well as Canadian federal and provincial income tax
returns with varying statutes of limitation. We also expect to file Spain income tax returns due to the acquisition of a
Spanish subsidiary during the year ended June 30, 2021. All tax years remain open to examination due to the
carryover of unused net operating losses.

Business Combination

On July 1, 2021, Affirm Canada Holdings Ltd. (“Affirm Canada”), a subsidiary of Affirm, and Affirm
completed the closing of the transaction contemplated by an Asset Purchase Agreement entered into with Yroo Inc.,
a developer of technologies that enable and enhance consumer e-commerce shopping intelligence and experience
(“Shopbrain”), and the shareholder representative party thereto to acquire certain assets and assume certain liabilities
of Shopbrain. The purchase price was comprised of (i) $30.0 million in cash and (ii) 151,745 shares of our Class A

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the stockholders and the Board of Directors of Affirm Holdings, Inc.

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Affirm Holdings, Inc. and subsidiaries
(the "Company") as of June 30, 2022 and 2021, the related consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive
loss, changes in redeemable convertible preferred stock and stockholders’ equity (deficit), and cash flows for each of
the three years in the period ended June 30, 2022, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial
statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of
the Company as of June 30, 2022 and 2021, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three
years in the period ended June 30, 2022, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United
States of America.
We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight
Board (United States) (PCAOB), the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2022, based
on criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring
Organizations of the Treadway Commission and our report dated August 29, 2022, expressed an unqualified opinion
on the Company's internal control over financial reporting.

Basis for Opinion

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to
express an opinion on the Company's financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm
registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the
U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and
the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we
plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of
material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that
respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and
disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and
significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Critical Audit Matter

The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current-period audit of the
financial statements that was communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that (1)
relates to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially
challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any
way our opinion on the financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit
matter below, providing a separate opinion on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or disclosures to which it
relates.

Allowance for Credit Losses — Refer to Notes 2 and 4 to the financial statements

Critical Audit Matter Description

The allowance for credit losses (ACL) is a material estimate of the Company and as of June 30, 2022, the
total balance was $155.4 million. In estimating the ACL, management utilizes a migration analysis of delinquent and
current loan receivables.The analysis focuses on the pertinent factors underlying the quality of the loan portfolio.
These factors include historical performance, the age of the receivable balance, customer credit-worthiness, changes
in the size and composition of the loan portfolio, delinquency levels, bankruptcy filings, and actual credit loss
experience. Management also incorporates qualitative adjustments to the quantitative model to consider the inherent
uncertainty regarding future economic conditions and consumer loan performance.
85

– II-74 –

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF AFFIRM

APPENDIX II

Determining the appropriate level of qualitative adjustments is inherently subjective and relies on
significant judgment. Given the subjective nature and amount of judgment required in developing these estimates,
performing audit procedures to evaluate the reasonableness of the ACL required a high degree of auditor judgment,
an increased extent of audit effort, credit specialists, and the need to involve more experienced audit professionals.

How the Critical Audit Matter Was Addressed in the Audit

Our audit procedures related to the allowance for credit losses included the following procedures, among others:
  • We tested the design and effectiveness of controls over the ACL, including management’s controls over the qualitative adjustments.

  • We tested management’s process for estimating the ACL, which included involving our credit specialists to evaluate the appropriateness of the models and methodologies used including the use of qualitative adjustments.

  • We evaluated the accuracy and completeness of the data used to estimate the allowance for credit losses.

  • We evaluated the qualitative adjustments, including assessing the basis and overall magnitude of the adjustments, obtaining third party macroeconomic data, and evaluating any contradictory evidence.

APPENDIX II

AFFIRM HOLDINGS, INC. NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. Business Description

Affirm Holdings, Inc. (“Affirm,” the “Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our”), headquartered in San Francisco,
California, provides consumers with a simpler, more transparent, and flexible alternative to traditional payment
options. Our mission is to deliver honest financial products that improve lives. Through our next-generation
commerce platform, agreements with originating banks, and capital markets partners, we enable consumers to
confidently pay for a purchase over time, with terms ranging from one to sixty months. When a consumer applies for
a loan through our platform, the loan is underwritten using our proprietary risk model, and once approved, the
consumer selects their preferred repayment option. Loans are self-originated or funded and issued by our originating
bank partners.
Merchants partner with us to transform the consumer shopping experience and to acquire and convert
customers more effectively through our frictionless point-of-sale payment solutions. Consumers get the flexibility to
buy now and make simple regular payments for their purchases and merchants see increased average order value,
repeat purchase rates, and an overall more satisfied customer base. Unlike legacy payment options and our
competitors’ product offerings, which charge deferred or compounding interest and unexpected costs, we disclose
up-front to consumers exactly what they will owe — no hidden fees, no deferred interest, no penalties.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”), as contained in the Financial Accounting Standards Board
(“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”).
Our financial statements have been prepared on a consolidated basis. Under this basis of presentation, our
financial statements consolidate all wholly owned subsidiaries and variable interest entities (“VIEs”), in which we
have a controlling financial interest. These include various business trust entities and limited partnerships
established to enter into warehouse credit agreements with certain lenders for funding debt facilities and certain
asset-backed securitization transactions. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in
consolidation.
Our variable interest arises from contractual, ownership, or other monetary interests in the entity, which
changes with fluctuations in the fair value of the entity’s net assets. We consolidate a VIE when we are deemed to be
the primary beneficiary. We assess whether or not we are the primary beneficiary of a VIE on an ongoing basis.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires the use of
estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amounts in the consolidated financial statements and
the accompanying notes. Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change relate to
determination of variable consideration for revenue, the allowance for credit losses, capitalized internal-use software
development costs, valuation allowance for deferred tax assets, loss on loan purchase commitment, the fair value of
servicing assets and liabilities, discount on self-originated loans, the fair value of assets acquired and any contingent
consideration transferred in business combinations, the evaluation for impairment of intangible assets and goodwill,
the fair value of available for sale debt securities including retained interests in our securitization trusts, the fair
value of residual certificates issued by our securitization trusts held by third parties, and stock-based compensation,
including the fair value of warrants issued to nonemployees. We base our estimates on historical experience, current
events, and other factors we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. To the extent that there are material
94

– II-83 –

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF AFFIRM

APPENDIX II

differences between these estimates and actual results, our financial condition or operating results will be materially
affected.
These estimates are based on information available as of the date of the consolidated financial statements;
therefore, actual results could differ materially from those estimates.

Immaterial Correction of Prior Period Amounts

Subsequent to the issuance of our financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the
fiscal year ended June 30, 2021, which was filed with the SEC on September 17, 2021, we identified
understatements in certain prior period amounts related to the fair value measurement of contingent consideration
and stock-based compensation.
We remeasure the fair value of the contingent consideration liability recorded in connection with the
PayBright, Inc. (“PayBright”) acquisition at each reporting date. An incorrect input in the Monte Carlo simulation
used to estimate the fair value as of June 30, 2021, resulted in an understatement of accrued expenses and other
liabilities of $5.6 million as of June 30, 2021 as previously reported.
We measure stock-based compensation based on the fair value of an award at the grant date and recognize
expense over the vesting period of the award based on the estimated portion of the award that is expected to vest. An
incorrect determination of the grant date and service inception dates for certain awards granted prior to our initial
public offering (“IPO”), as well as incorrect treatment of expense recognition for certain terminated employees,
resulted in an understatement of additional paid in capital and misstatement of stock-based compensation expense as
of and for the year ended June 30, 2021 as previously reported.
Accordingly, we have corrected the accompanying financial statements and related footnotes as of and for
the year ended June 30, 2021 from amounts previously reported. We have evaluated the materiality of these
misstatements based on an analysis of quantitative and qualitative factors and concluded they were not material to
the prior period financial statements, individually or in aggregate.
The following tables provide the impact of the correction as of and for the year ended June 30, 2021, as

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF AFFIRM

APPENDIX II

Segment Reporting

We conduct our operations through a single operating segment and, therefore, one reportable segment.
Operating segments are components of a company for which separate financial information is internally produced
for regular use by the Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) to allocate resources and assess the performance
of the business. Our CODM, the Chief Executive Officer of Affirm Holdings, Inc., uses a variety of measures to
assess the performance of the business; however, detailed profitability information that could be used to allocate
resources and assess the performance of the business is managed and reviewed for the consolidated company as a
whole.

Business Combination

We use the acquisition method of accounting for business combination transactions, and, accordingly,
recognize the fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in our consolidated financial statements. Assets
acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination that arise from contingencies are recognized at fair value.
Transaction costs related to the acquisition of the acquired company are expensed as incurred. The allocation of fair
values may be subject to adjustment after the initial allocation for up to a one-year period as more information
becomes available relative to the fair values as of the acquisition date. The consolidated financial statements include
the results of operations of any acquired company since the acquisition date.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents consist of checking, money market and savings accounts held at financial
institutions and short term highly liquid marketable securities, including money market funds and other corporate
securities purchased with an original maturity of three months or less.

Restricted Cash

Restricted cash consists primarily of: (i) deposits restricted by standby letters of credit for office leases and
certain commercial agreements; (ii) funds held in accounts as collateral for our originating bank partners; and (iii)
servicing funds held in accounts contractually restricted by agreements with warehouse credit facilities,
securitization trusts, and third-party loan owners. We have no ability to draw on such funds as long as they remain
restricted under the applicable agreements.

Securities Available for Sale

We hold certain investments in marketable debt securities and retained interests in our unconsolidated
securitization trusts which are accounted for under ASC Topic 320, “Investments - Debt Securities” (“ASC 320”).
We have classified these investments as available for sale, as defined within ASC 320. These investments are held at
fair value with changes in fair value recorded in unrealized gain (loss) on securities available for sale, net within
other comprehensive income (loss), excluding the portion relating to any credit loss. As of the end of each reporting
period, management reviews each security where the fair value is less than the amortized cost to determine whether
any portion of the decline in fair value is due to a credit loss and/or whether or not we intend to sell or will be
required to sell such security before recovery of its amortized cost basis. The portion of any decline in fair value
which management identifies as a credit loss will be recognized as an allowance for credit losses through other
(expense) income, net. To the extent management intends to sell or may be required to sell a security in an
unrealized loss position, we 1) reverse any previously recorded allowance for credit losses with an offsetting entry to
reduce the amortized cost basis of the security and 2) write-off any remaining portion of the amortized cost basis to
equal its fair value, with this change recorded through other (expense) income, net.
Interest income for available for sale securities is recorded within other (expense) income, net.
97

– II-86 –

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF AFFIRM

APPENDIX II

Available for sale securities initially purchased with less than 90 days until maturity with quoted transaction
prices in an active market are classified as cash and cash equivalents.
With respect to retained interests in our securitization trusts, we apply the guidance in ASC Topic 325,
“Investments - Other” (“ASC 325”) relating to beneficial interests. Accordingly, we recognize interest income each
period based on the effective interest rate calculated using expected cash flows. Changes in the timing of expected
cash flows are accounted for prospectively through an adjustment to interest income. When fair value is below
amortized cost, we record an allowance for credit losses measured based on the difference between amortized cost
and projected cash flows discounted at the effective interest rate. The allowance for credit losses is capped at the
difference between amortized cost and fair value.

Loans Held for Investment

We either originate loans directly or purchase our loans from our originating bank partners pursuant to the
terms outlined in the respective executed loan sale program agreements between us and our bank partners. Loan
receivables that we have the intent and ability to hold for the foreseeable future or until maturity or payoff are
classified as held for investment and are reported at amortized cost, which includes unpaid principal balances, any
related premiums including fees paid to our originating bank partners and discounts due to loss on loan purchase
commitment for loans with a fair value below the purchase price, where applicable, adjusted for any charge-offs.
The amortized cost is adjusted for the allowance for credit losses within loans held for investment, net.

Loans Held for Sale

We sell certain loans to third-party loan buyers and securitization trusts. A loan is initially classified as held
for sale when the loan is identified as for sale to a third party loan buyer or to be sold to a securitization that is
anticipated to be off balance sheet. Loans classified as held for sale are recorded at the lower of amortized cost or
fair value. A loan that is initially designated as held for sale or held for investment may be reclassified when our
intent for that loan changes. When a loan held for investment is reclassified to held for sale and reported at fair
value, any allowance for the credit loss related to that loan is released and any fair value adjustment to record the
loan at the lower of amortized cost or fair value is recorded. Our loans designated as held for sale are generally sold
within one to three days of the balance sheet date. Fair value adjustments were not material for loans designated as
held for sale as of June 30, 2022and June 30, 2021.

Transfers of Financial Assets

We account for loan sales in accordance with ASC 860, “Transfers and Servicing” (“ASC 860”) which
states that a transfer of financial assets, a group of financial assets, or a participating interest in a financial asset is
accounted for as a sale if all of the following conditions are met:
  • a. The financial assets are isolated from the transferor and its consolidated affiliates as well as its creditors;

  • b. The transferee or beneficial interest holders have the right to pledge or exchange the transferred financial assets; and

  • c. The transferor does not maintain effective control of the transferred assets.

For the years ended June 30, 2022, 2021, and 2020, all loan sales met the requirements for sale treatment in
accordance with ASC 860. We record the gain or loss on the sale of a loan at the sale date in an amount equal to the
proceeds received, adjusted for initial recognition of servicing assets or liabilities obtained at the date of sale, less
the carrying value of the loan.
Upon the sale of a loan to a third-party loan buyer or unconsolidated securitization in which we retain
servicing rights, we may recognize a servicing asset or liability. Receiving more than adequate compensation, as
98

– II-87 –

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF AFFIRM

APPENDIX II

defined by ASC 860, for servicing those loans, results in recognition of a servicing asset. Receiving less than
adequate compensation results in a servicing liability. Servicing assets and liabilities are recorded at fair value and
are presented as a component of other assets or accrued expenses and other liabilities, respectively. The recognition
of a servicing asset results in a corresponding increase to the gain on sales of loans. The recognition of a servicing
liability results in a corresponding decrease to gain on sales of loans. The servicing rights are marked to fair value
each period, with the subsequent adjustment recognized in servicing income. The subsequent measurement includes
changes in inputs or assumptions used in the valuation model.
In connection with the sale of a loan to a third-party loan buyer or unconsolidated securitization, we may
also recognize a recourse liability in accordance with ASC 460, “Guarantees” (“ASC 460”) as in certain
circumstances we may become required to re-purchase loans from third-party investors due to breaches in
representations and warranties.The recognition of a recourse liability results in a corresponding decrease to gain on
sales of loans.The recourse liability is amortized over the loan term and remeasured each period based on the
outstanding loan balance and changes in our expectation of future repurchase obligations.

Allowance for Credit Losses

The allowance for credit losses on loans held for investment is determined based on management’s current
estimate of expected credit losses over the remaining contractual term, historical credit losses, consumer payment
trends, estimates of recoveries, and future expectations on individual loans as of each balance sheet date. We
immediately recognize an allowance for expected credit losses upon the origination of a loan. Adjustments to the
allowance each period for changes in our estimate of lifetime expected credit losses are recognized in earnings
through the provision for credit losses presented on our consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive
loss. We have made an accounting policy election to not measure an allowance for credit losses for accrued interest
receivables. Previously recognized interest receivable from charged-off loans that is accrued but not collected from
the consumer is reversed.
In estimating the allowance for credit losses, management utilizes a migration analysis of delinquent and
current loan receivables. Migration analysis is a technique used to estimate the likelihood that a loan receivable will
progress through various stages of delinquency and to charge-off. The analysis focuses on the pertinent factors
underlying the quality of the loan portfolio. These factors include historical performance, the age of the receivable
balance, seasonality, customer credit-worthiness, changes in the size and composition of the loan portfolio,
delinquency levels, bankruptcy filings and actual credit loss experience. We also take into consideration certain
qualitative factors where we adjust our quantitative baseline using our best judgment to consider the inherent
uncertainty regarding future economic conditions and consumer loan performance.For example, the Company
considers the impact of current economic factors at the reporting date that did not exist over the period from which
historical experience was used. As of June 30, 2022, we have considered the impact of Federal Reserve monetary
policy, labor market trends, inflation and consumer sentiment.
When available information confirms that specific loans or portions thereof are uncollectible, identified
amounts are charged against the allowance for credit losses. Loans are charged-off in accordance with our charge-
off policy, as the contractual principal becomes 120 days past due. Subsequent recoveries of the unpaid principal
balance, if any, are credited to the allowance for credit losses. Refer to Note 4. Loans Held for Investment and
Allowance for Credit Losses for more information.

Accounts Receivable, net

Our accounts receivable consist primarily of amounts due from payment processors, merchant partners,
affiliate network partners and servicing fees due from third-party loan owners. We evaluate accounts receivable to
determine management’s current estimate of expected credit losses based on historical experience and future
expectations and record an allowance for credit losses, as applicable. Our allowance for credit losses with respect to
accounts receivable was $13.9 million and $4.1 million as of June 30, 2022 and June 30, 2021, respectively.

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF AFFIRM

APPENDIX II

Property, Equipment and Software, net

Property, equipment and software consist of computer and office equipment, capitalized internal-use
developed software and website development costs and leasehold improvements. Property, equipment and software
is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization expenses are
recognized using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, which range from three to
seven years. Leasehold improvements are depreciated over the shorter of the improvement’s estimated useful life or
the remaining lease term.
We capitalize costs to develop internally developed software when preliminary development efforts are
successfully completed, management has authorized and committed project funding, and it is probable that the
project will be completed and the software or website will function and be used as intended. Capitalized internal-use
software costs primarily include salaries and payroll-related costs for employees directly involved in the
development efforts, software licenses acquired and fees paid to external consultants. Such costs are amortized on a
straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of the related asset, which is three years. Costs incurred prior to
meeting these criteria, together with costs incurred for training and maintenance, are expensed as incurred. Costs
incurred for enhancements that are expected to result in additional functionality are capitalized and expensed over
the estimated useful life of the upgrades. Capitalized internally developed software costs are included in property,
equipment and software, and amortization expense is included in technology and data analytics expense in the
consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.
Property, equipment and software is tested for impairment when there is an indication that the carrying
value of an asset group may not be recoverable. Carrying values are not recoverable when the undiscounted cash
flows estimated to be generated by the assets are less than their carrying values. When an asset is determined not to
be recoverable, the impairment is measured based on the excess, if any, of the carrying value of the asset over its
respective fair value and recorded in the period the determination is made.

Goodwill and Intangible Assets

We recognize the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of identifiable net assets acquired at the
acquisition date as goodwill. Goodwill is not amortized but is reviewed for impairment annually and more
frequently if an event occurs or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a
reporting unit below its carrying value. We first perform a qualitative assessment to determine whether it is more
likely than not that the fair value of the reporting unit is less than its carrying value. If the reporting unit does not
pass the qualitative assessment, then the reporting unit’s carrying value is compared to its fair value. If the fair value
of the reporting unit is greater than the reporting unit’s carrying value, then the carrying value of the reporting unit is
deemed to be recoverable. If the carrying value of the reporting unit is greater than the reporting unit’s fair value,
goodwill is impaired and written down to the reporting unit’s fair value.
Identifiable intangible assets include developed technology, merchant relationships, assembled workforce,
and trade names resulting from acquisitions, including asset acquisitions. Acquired intangible assets are recorded at
fair value on the date of acquisition and amortized over their estimated economic lives following the pattern in
which the economic benefits of the assets will be consumed, which is on a straight-line basis. Acquired intangible
assets are presented net of accumulated amortization on the consolidated balance sheets. We review the carrying
amounts of intangible assets group for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the
carrying amount of the assets may not be recoverable. We measure the recoverability of intangible assets by
comparing the carrying amount of each asset to the future undiscounted cash flows we expect the asset to generate.
If we consider any of these assets to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized equals the amount by which the
carrying value of the asset exceeds its fair value. In addition, we periodically evaluate the estimated remaining useful
lives of long-lived intangible assets to determine whether events or changes in circumstances warrant a revision to
the remaining period of depreciation or amortization.

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF AFFIRM

APPENDIX II

Leases

We determine whether an arrangement is a lease for accounting purposes at contract inception. For
operating leases, we record a right-of-use asset within other assets in our consolidated balance sheets, which
represents our right to use an underlying asset for the lease term. A corresponding lease liability, which represents
our obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease, is recorded in accrued expenses and other liabilities in
our consolidated balance sheets.
ROU assets and lease liabilities are recognized at the lease commencement date based on the present value
of lease payments over the lease term. To discount the lease payments, we use an incremental borrowing rate
derived from a corporate yield curve corresponding with the lease term using information available on the
commencement date. We have the option to renew or extend our leases. We include these periods in the lease term
when a decision has been made to exercise the option. Lease expense for operating leases is recognized on a
straight-line basis over the lease term.
We have elected the practical expedient allowing the combination of lease and non-lease components by
class of underlying asset. We have also elected the short-term lease exception and will not recognize right-of-use
assets or lease liabilities for qualifying leases with a term of less than 12 months from lease commencement.

Non-marketable Equity Securities

Non-marketable equity securities which do not have a readily determinable fair value are measured at cost
less impairment, if any, and adjusted for changes resulting from observable price changes in orderly transactions for
an identical or similar investment in the same issuer (the “measurement alternative”).
Unrealized and realized gains and losses on the investment due to impairment or observable price changes
in orderly transaction for an identical or similar investment of the same issuer, if any, are recognized in other
(expense) income, net on our consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss and a new carrying
value is established for the investment upon such recognition.

Funding Debt and Debt Issuance Costs

We borrow from various lenders through our warehouse facilities and through sale and repurchase
agreements by pledging certain retained interests in our off balance sheet securitizations to finance loans we
originate directly and purchase loans from our originating bank partners. These borrowings are carried at amortized
cost. Costs incurred in connection with borrowings, such as banker fees, commitment fees and legal fees, are
classified as deferred debt issuance costs. We defer these costs and amortize them on a straight-line basis over the
term of the debt. Interest payments and amortization of debt issuance costs incurred on funding debt is presented as
funding costs in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. Unamortized debt issuance costs
are presented as a reduction of the associated debt.

Income Taxes

Income taxes are accounted for using the asset and liability method, which requires recognition of deferred
tax assets and liabilities for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial
statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax
credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws that are
expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered
or settled. The effect of a change in tax rates on deferred tax assets and liabilities is recognized as an income tax
expense (benefit) in the period that includes the enactment date.
101

– II-90 –

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF AFFIRM

APPENDIX II

Valuation allowances are provided when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amounts that are
more likely than not expected to be realized based on the weighting of positive and negative evidence. Future
realization of deferred tax assets ultimately depends on the existence of sufficient taxable income of the appropriate
character within the carryback or carryforward periods available under the applicable tax law. We regularly review
the deferred tax assets for recoverability based on historical taxable income, projected future taxable income, the
expected timing of the reversals of existing temporary differences, and tax planning strategies; however, in
evaluating the positive evidence available, expectations of future taxable income and projections for growth are
usually not sufficient to overcome the negative evidence of the presence of a three-year cumulative loss. Should
there be a change in the ability to recover deferred tax assets, our income tax provision would increase or decrease in
the period in which the assessment is changed.
The calculation of our tax liabilities involves dealing with uncertainties in the application of complex
federal, state, and foreign tax laws and regulations, and positions taken in our tax returns may be subject to challenge
by the taxing authorities upon examination. In accordance with applicable accounting guidance, uncertain tax
positions are recognized in the financial statements only when it is more likely than not that the positions will be
sustained upon examination by the tax authorities, assuming full knowledge of the position and all relevant facts.
Interest and penalties, if any, on income tax uncertainties are classified within income tax expense in the income
statement.

Fair Value of Assets and Liabilities

ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” (“ASC 820”), defines fair value, establishes a
framework for measuring fair value under generally accepted accounting principles, and requires certain disclosures
about fair value measurements. In general, fair values of financial instruments are based upon quoted market prices,
where available. If such quoted market prices are not available, fair value is based upon internally developed models
that use, as inputs, observable market-based parameters to the greatest extent possible.
Additionally, ASC 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the use of inputs used in valuation
methodologies into the following three levels:
  • Level 1: Inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices, unadjusted, for identical assets or liabilities in active markets. A quoted price in an active market provides the most reliable evidence of fair value and shall be used to measure fair value whenever available.

  • Level 2: Inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; or inputs to the valuation methodology that are derived principally from or can be corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.

  • Level 3: Inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement. Level 3 assets and liabilities include financial instruments whose value is determined using discounted cash flow methodologies, as well as instruments for which the determination of fair value requires significant management judgment or estimation.

Revenue Recognition

Merchant Network Revenue — Revenue from Contracts with Customers

Merchant network revenue consists of merchant fees. Merchant partners (or merchants) are charged a fee
on each transaction processed through the Affirm platform. The fees vary depending on the individual arrangement
between us and each merchant and on the terms of the product offering. The fee is recognized at the point in time the
merchant successfully confirms the transaction, which is when the terms of the executed merchant agreement are
fulfilled.
102

– II-91 –

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF AFFIRM

APPENDIX II

Our contracts with merchants are defined at the transaction level and do not extend beyond the service
already provided (i.e., each transaction represents a separate contract). The fees collected from merchants for each
transaction are determined as a percentage of the value of the goods purchased by the consumer from merchants and
consider a number of factors including the end consumer’s credit risk and financing term. We do not have any
capitalized contract costs, and do not carry any material contract balances.
Our service comprises a single performance obligation to merchants to facilitate transactions with
consumers. From time to time, we offer merchants promotional incentives to offer incentives to promote our
platform to their customers, such as fee reductions or rebates. These amounts, as well as refunds, are recorded as a
reduction of revenue and netted against merchant network revenue.
We may originate certain loans via our wholly-owned subsidiaries, with zero or below market interest rates.
In these instances, the par value of the loans originated is in excess of the fair market value of such loans, resulting
in a loss, which we record as a reduction to merchant network revenue. In certain cases, the losses incurred on loans
originated for a merchant may exceed the total network revenue earned on those loans. We record the excess loss
amounts as a sales and marketing expense.
On May 5, 2021, our largest merchant partner at the time, Peloton, announced a voluntary recall of two of
its products following a report by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission released on April 17, 2021.
Pursuant to ASC 606, we revised our estimate of the variable consideration associated with revenue earned on the
facilitation of transactions related to the recalled products and recorded a reduction in revenue of $5.4 million during
the year ended June 30, 2021.
A portion of merchant network revenue relates to affiliate network revenue, which is generated when a user
makes a purchase on a merchant’s website after being directed from an advertisement on Affirm’s website or mobile
application. We earn a fixed placement fee and/or commission as a percentage of the associated sale. Revenue is
recognized at the point in time when the performance obligation has been fulfilled, which is when the sale occurs.

Virtual Card Network Revenue — Revenue from Contracts with Customers

We have agreements with issuer processors to facilitate transactions through the issuance of virtual debit
cards to be used by consumers at checkout. Consumers can apply for a virtual debit card through the Affirm app and,
upon approval, receive a single-use virtual debit card to be used for their purchase online or offline at a non-
integrated merchant. The virtual debit card is funded at the time a transaction is authorized using cash held by the
issuer processor in a reserve fund. Our originating bank partner then originates a loan to the consumer once the
transaction is confirmed by the merchant. The non-integrated merchants are charged interchange fees by the issuer
processor for virtual debit card transactions, as with all debit card purchases, and the issuer processor shares a
portion of this revenue with us. We also leverage this issuer processor as a means of integrating certain merchants.
Similarly, for these arrangements with integrated merchants, the merchant is charged interchange fees by the issuer
processor and the issuer processor shares a portion of this revenue with us. From time to time, we offer certain
integrated merchants promotional incentives to promote our platform to their customers, such as rebates of
interchange fees charged by the issuer processor. These amounts are recorded as a reduction of revenue and netted
against virtual card network revenue.
Our contracts with issuer processors are defined at the transaction level and do not extend beyond the
service already provided. The fees collected from issuer processors for each transaction are determined as
a percentage of the interchange fees charged on transactions facilitated on the payment processor network, and
revenue is recognized at the point in time the transaction is completed successfully. The fees collected are presented
in revenue, net of associated processing fees. As the issuer processors do not provide distinct services to us, any fees
paid to the issuer processors are offset against collected fees. We have concluded that these fees do not give rise to a
future material right because the pricing of each transaction does not depend on the volume of prior successful
transactions. We do not have any capitalized contract costs, and do not carry any material contract balances.

APPENDIX II

Our service comprises a single performance obligation to the issuer processors to facilitate transactions
with consumers.
A portion of virtual card network revenue relates to incentive payments from card network partners, which
we are eligible to receive for reaching certain cumulative volume targets on program cards issued by the issuer
processors. We earn incentive revenue as a percentage of each associated transaction and estimate the applicable
percentage based on observed cumulative volume on program cards. Revenue is recognized at the point in time
when the performance obligation has been fulfilled, which is when the transaction is completed successfully.

Interest Income

We accrue interest income using the effective interest method. Interest income on a loan is accrued daily,
based on the finance charge disclosed to the consumer, over the term of the loan based upon the principal
outstanding. The accrual of interest on a loan is suspended if a formal dispute with the borrower involving either
Affirm or the merchant of record is opened, or a loan is 120 days past due. Upon the resolution of a dispute with the
consumer, the accrual of interest is resumed and any interest that would have been earned during the disputed period
is retroactively accrued. As of June 30, 2022 and June 30, 2021, the balance of loans held for investment on non-
accrual status was $1.7 million and $1.1 million, respectively.
The account is charged-off in the period if the account becomes 120 days past due or meets other charge-
off policy requirements. Past due status is based on the contractual terms of the loans. Previously recognized interest
receivable from charged-off loans that is accrued but not collected from the consumer is reversed.
Any discounts or premiums on loan receivables created upon the purchase of a loan from our originating
bank partners or upon the origination of a loan are amortized into interest income over the life of the loan using the
effective interest method. The amortization is presented together as interest income in the consolidated statements of
operations and comprehensive loss.

Servicing Income

Servicing income includes contractual fees specified in our servicing agreements with third-party loan
owners and unconsolidated securitizations that are earned from providing professional services to manage loan
portfolios on their behalf. The servicing fee is calculated on a daily basis by multiplying a set fee percentage (as
outlined in the executed agreements with third-party loan owners) by the outstanding loan principal balance. We
recognize this revenue on a monthly basis.

Loss on Loan Purchase Commitment

We purchase certain loans from our originating bank partners that are processed through our platform that
our originating bank partner puts back to us. Under the terms of the agreements with our originating bank partners,
we are generally required to pay the principal amount plus accrued interest for such loans. In certain instances, our
originating bank partners may originate loans with zero or below market interest rates that we are required to
purchase. In these instances, we may be required to purchase the loan for a price in excess of the fair market value of
such loans, which results in a loss. These losses are recognized as loss on loan purchase commitment in our
consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.
Due to the nature of this arrangement with our originating bank partners, we recognize a net liability for
this commitment when the merchant confirms the transaction. This liability is recorded at fair value, which is
determined by the difference between the estimated fair value of the loan and the anticipated purchase price. Upon
purchase, the liability is included in the amortized cost basis of the purchased loan as a discount, which is amortized
into interest income over the life of the loan.

APPENDIX II

Customer Referral Partners

From time to time, we make payments to customer referral partners providing lead generation services for
each transaction processed through our technology platform. We first evaluate whether the customer referral partner
is a customer or a vendor. We consider customer referral partners as customers if we determine they are the principal
to eligible merchants in providing the facilitation of credit service. We consider customer referral partners as
vendors if we determine that we are the principal to eligible merchants in providing the facilitation of credit service.
Payments made to customer referral partners that are considered to be our customer are recorded as a reduction of
revenue, and payments made to customer referral partners that are not considered to be our customers are recorded
in processing and servicing expense, respectively, over the associated period of benefit within our consolidated
statements of operations and comprehensive loss.

Sales and Marketing Costs

Sales and marketing costs include the expense related to warrants and other share-based payments granted
to our enterprise partners. See Note 6. Balance Sheet Components for more information on these arrangements.
Sales and marketing costs also include salaries and personnel-related costs, as well as costs of general marketing and
promotional activities, promotional event programs, sponsorships, and allocated overhead. A portion of these costs
related to general marketing and promotional activities are considered advertising costs within the meaning of ASC
Topic 720, “Other Expenses” (“ASC 720”), and are expensed as incurred. Advertising costs totaled $74.0 million,
$48.1 million and $3.3 million for the year ended June 30, 2022, 2021, and 2020, respectively.

Derivative Instruments

We mitigate the impact of changes in interest rates with various derivative instruments, including interest
rate caps, constant maturity swaps, and curve efficient swaps that are accounted for as derivatives pursuant to ASC
Topic 815, “Derivatives and Hedging” ("ASC Topic 815"). ASC Topic 815 requires that an entity recognize all
derivatives as either assets or liabilities on the balance sheet, measure those instruments at fair value and recognize
changes in the fair value of derivatives in earnings in the period of change unless the derivative qualifies as a
designated hedge that offsets certain exposures. During the periods presented, we have not designated any of our
derivatives as hedging instruments.

Stock-Based Compensation

We account for stock-based compensation expense in accordance with the fair value recognition and
measurement provisions of U.S. GAAP, which requires compensation cost for the grant date fair value of stock-
based awards to be recognized over the requisite service period. In addition, we made an accounting policy election
to estimate the expected forfeiture rate for service-based awards and only recognize expense for those stock-based
awards expected to vest. We estimate the forfeiture rate based on our historical experience with stock-based awards
that are granted and forfeited prior to vesting.
The fair value of stock-based awards, granted or modified, is determined on the grant date (or modification
or acquisition dates, if applicable) at fair value, using appropriate valuation techniques.

Service-Based Awards

We record stock-based compensation expense for service-based stock options and restricted stock units
(“RSUs”) on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period, which is generally one to four years.The fair
value of each option on the date of grant is determined using the Black Scholes-Merton option pricing model using
the single-option award approach. Volatility is based on historical volatility rates obtained from comparable
publicly-traded companies that operate in the same or related business as us, as there is a limited time period of
historical market data for our common stock. The risk-free interest rate is determined using a U.S. Treasury rate for
the period that coincides with the expected term set forth. We used the simplified method to determine an estimate
of the expected term of an employee stock option.
105

– II-94 –

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF AFFIRM

APPENDIX II

We account for stock-based awards to non-employees, including consultants, in accordance with ASC
Topic 718, “Compensation — Stock Compensation” (“ASC 718”), in which equity-classified awards are measured
at the grant date fair value and recognized as expense in the period and manner as though we had paid cash in
exchange for goods or services instead of granting a stock-based award.

Performance-Based Awards

Prior to the IPO, we granted RSUs that were subject to two vesting conditions: a service-based vesting
condition (i.e., employment over aperiod of time) and a performance-based vesting condition (i.e., a liquidity event
in the form of either certain change in control transactions or an initial public offering). The performance-based
condition was met upon the IPO. We record stock-based compensation expense for these awards on an accelerated
attribution method over the requisite service period, which is generally four years.
Upon exercise or vesting of a stock-based award, the tax effect of the difference, if any, between the
cumulative compensation cost recognized for financial statement purposes and the deduction for income tax
purposes, will be recognized as an income tax expense or benefit in the consolidated statement of operations.

Market-Based Awards

We have granted stock option awards with service-based and performance-based vesting conditions, with
market-based conditions that are incorporated into the grant date fair value. We determined the grant date fair value
of these awards by utilizing a Monte Carlo simulation model that incorporates the possibility that the market-based
conditions may not be satisfied. The Monte Carlo simulation also incorporates assumptions including expected stock
price volatility, expected term, and risk-free interest rates. We estimate the volatility of common stock on the date of
grant based on the weighted-average historical stock price volatility of comparable publicly-traded companies in our
industry group. We estimate the expected term of the award based on various exercise scenarios. The risk-free
interest rate is determined using a U.S. Treasury rate for the period that coincides with the expected term set forth.
We record stock-based compensation expense for market-based equity awards on an accelerated attribution
method over the requisite service period, and only if performance-based conditions are considered probable of being
satisfied.

Foreign Currency

We have wholly-owned foreign subsidiaries that use the local currency of their respective country as their
functional currency. Assets and liabilities of these subsidiaries are translated into U.S. dollars at exchange rates
prevailing at the balance sheet dates. Revenue, costs, and expenses of these subsidiaries are translated into U.S.
dollars using daily exchange rates when incurred. Gains and losses resulting from these translations are recorded as a
component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) (“AOCI”). Gains and losses from the remeasurement
of foreign currency transactions into the functional currency are recognized as other income (expense), net, in our
consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.

Basic and Diluted Net Loss per Common Share

We calculate net income or loss per share using the two-class method. The two-class method requires
income available to common stockholders for the period to be allocated between each class of common stock and
participating securities based upon their respective rights to receive dividends as if all income for the period had
been distributed. Our participating securities include common stock issued upon the early exercise of stock options
and convertible senior notes. We consider any shares issued upon early exercise of stock options, subject to
repurchase, to be participating securities because holders of such shares have non-forfeitable dividend rights in the
event a cash dividend is declared on our common stock. These participating securities do not contractually require
the holders of such shares to participate in our losses. As such, net losses for the years presented were not allocated
106

– II-95 –

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF AFFIRM

APPENDIX II

to our participating securities. Prior to the conversion of redeemable convertible preferred stock into shares of our
common stock on January 12, 2021, these shares also represented participating securities.
We calculate basic net loss per share attributable to common stockholders for Class A and Class B common
stock by dividing net loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares
outstanding in each class for the period.
We calculate diluted net loss per share attributable to common stockholders by dividing net loss attributable
to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding in each class, after giving
consideration to the dilutive effect of our redeemable convertible preferred stock, stock options, restricted stock
units, employee stock purchase plan shares, convertible debt and common stock warrants that are outstanding during
the period. We have generated a net loss in all periods presented, and therefore, the basic and diluted net loss per
share attributable to common stockholders are the same as the inclusion of the potentially dilutive securities would
be anti-dilutive. During the years ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, the excess of the repurchase price of preferred
stock over its carrying value was recorded as an increase to net loss to determine net loss attributable to common
stockholders, basic and diluted.

Recently Adopted Accounting Standards

Convertible Debt Instruments

In August 2020, the FASB issued Accounting Standard Update (“ASU”) 2020-06, “Debt — Debt with
Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging — Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity
(Subtopic 815-40),” which simplifies the accounting for convertible instruments. The guidance removes certain
accounting models that separate the embedded conversion features from the host contract for convertible
instruments. Either a modified retrospective method of transition or a fully retrospective method of transition is
permissible for the adoption of this standard. ASU 2020-06 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15,
2021, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted no earlier than the fiscal year
beginning after December 15, 2020. We early adopted the new standard effective July 1, 2021 on a modified
retrospective basis. The adoption of the new standard did not have any impact on our financial statements as of the
adoption date. As further discussed in Note 11.Debt, the Company issued certain convertible senior notes in
November 2021, and the accounting for these instruments was based on the guidance in ASU 2020-06.

Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 12 1

In March 2022, the SEC staff released Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 121 ("SAB 121"), which expressed
the views of the SEC staff regarding the accounting for obligations to safeguard crypto-assets an entity holds for
users of its crypto platform. This guidance requires entities that hold crypto-assets on behalf of platform users to
recognizea liability to reflect the entity’s obligation to safeguard the crypto-assets held for its platformusers,
whether safeguarding is provided by the entity or by an agent acting on behalf of the entity.The liability should be
measured at initial recognition and each reporting date at the fair value of the crypto-assets that the entity is
responsible for holding for its platformusers, taking into account any potential loss event. The entity should also
recognize an asset at the same time that it recognizes the safeguarding liability, measured at initial recognition and
each reporting date at the fair value of the crypto-assets held for its platform users taking into account any potential
loss event. The entity should also describe the asset and the corresponding liability in the footnotes to the financial
statements and consider including information regarding who (e.g. the company, its agent, or another third party)
holds the cryptographic key information, maintains the internal recordkeeping of those assets, and is obligated to
secure the assets and protect them from loss or theft. This guidance is effective from the first interim period after
June 15, 2022 and should be applied retrospectively. We adopted the guidance in SAB 121 as of June 30, 2022 on a
retrospective basis. The adoption of the guidance did not have a material impact on our financial statements.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

Reference Rate Reform

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, “Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the
Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting.” Subject to meeting certain criteria, the new guidance
provides optional expedients and exceptions to applying contract modification accounting under existing U.S.
GAAP, to address the expected phase out of the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”). This ASU is effective
for all entities upon issuance as of March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022. In January 2021, the FASB also
issued ASU 2021-01, “Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848),” which provides additional optional expedients and
exceptions applicable to all entities that have derivative instruments that use an interest rate for margining,
discounting, or contract price alignment that is modified as a result of reference rate reform. This ASU is effective
for all entities upon issuance as of January 7, 2021 through December 31, 2022. We have reviewed all our financial
agreements that utilize LIBOR as the reference rate and determined there is no material impact to our consolidated
financial statements as of June 30, 2022. Throughout the remaining effective period for ASU 2020-04 and ASU
2021-01, we will continue to evaluate the available relief measures within each of these amendments and will
determine any impact on our consolidated financial statements and disclosures, as applicable.

Business Combinations

In October 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-08, “Business Combinations (Topic 805): Accounting for
Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers,” which requires contract assets and
contract liabilities, such as deferred revenue, acquired in a business combination to be recognized and measured in
accordance with Topic 606 (Revenue from Contracts with Customers). ASU 2021-08 is expected to reduce diversity
in practice and increase comparability for both the recognition and measurement of acquired revenue contracts with
customers at the date of and after a business combination. The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after
December 15, 2022 and should be applied prospectively to acquisitions occurring on or after the effective date.
Early adoption is permitted, including for interim periods, and is applicable to all business combinations for which
the acquisition date occurs within the beginning of the fiscal year of adoption. We are in the process of evaluating
the impact of adopting this accounting standard update on our consolidated financial statements and disclosures.

Financial Instruments - Credit Losses

In March 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-02, “Financial Instruments— Credit Losses (Topic 326),
Troubled Debt Restructurings and Vintage Disclosure” which addresses areas identified by the FASB as part of its
post-implementation review of the current expected credit losses model or “CECL” previously issued in ASU
2016-13, “Financial Instruments — Credit Losses (Topic 326)”. The amendments in this ASU eliminate the
accounting guidance for troubled debt restructurings by creditors while enhancing the disclosure requirements for
loan refinancing and restructurings made with borrowers experiencing financial difficulty. In addition, the
amendments require a public business entity to disclose current-period gross write-offs by year of origination for
financing receivables and net investment in leases in the vintage disclosures. For entities that have adopted ASU
2016-13, ASU 2022-02 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods
within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted if an entity has adopted ASU 2016-13. Amendments in this
ASU should be applied prospectively except for the transition method related to the accounting for troubled debt
restructurings in which an entity has the option to apply a modified retrospective transition method resulting in a
cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings in the period of adoption. We are in the process of evaluating the
impact of adopting this accounting standard update on our consolidated financial statements and disclosures.

The majority of the loans that are underwritten using our technology platform and originated by our
originating bank partners are later purchased by us. We purchased loans from our originating bank partners in the
amount of $12.1 billion, $7.9 billion, and $4.7 billion for the years ended June 30, 2022, 2021, and 2020,
respectively.
These loans have a variety of lending terms as well as maturities ranging from one to sixty months. Given
that our loan portfolio focuses on one product segment, point-of-sale unsecured installment loans, we generally
evaluate the entire portfolio as a single homogeneous loan portfolio and make merchant or program specific
adjustments as necessary.
We closely monitor credit quality for our loan receivables to manage and evaluate our related exposure to
credit risk. Credit risk management begins with initial underwriting, where loan applications are assessed against the
credit underwriting policy and procedures for our self-originated loans and originating bank partner loans, and
continues through to full repayment of a loan. To assess a consumer who requests a loan, we use, among other
indicators, internally developed risk models using detailed information from external sources, such as credit bureaus
where available, and internal historical experience, including the consumer’s prior repayment history on our
platform as well as other measures. We combine these factors to establish a proprietary score as a credit quality
indicator.
Our proprietary score (“ITACs”) is assigned to most loans facilitated through our technology platform,
ranging from zero to 100, with 100 representing the highest credit quality and therefore the lowest likelihood of loss.
The ITACs model analyzes the characteristics of a consumer's attributes that are shown to be predictive of both
willingness and ability to repay including, but not limited to: basic features of a consumer's credit profile, a
109

– II-98 –

APPENDIX II

consumer's prior repayment performance with other creditors, current credit utilization, and legal and policy
changes. When a consumer passes both fraud and credit policy checks, the application is assigned an ITACs score.
ITACs is also used for portfolio performance monitoring. Our credit risk team closely tracks the distribution of
ITACs at the portfolio level, as well as ITACs at the individual loan level to monitor for signs of a changing credit
profile within the portfolio. Repayment performance within each ITACs band is also monitored to support both the
integrity of the risk scoring models and to measure possible changes in consumer behavior amongst various credit
tiers.

APPENDIX II

We maintain an allowance for credit losses at a level sufficient to absorb expected credit losses based on
evaluating known and inherent risks in our loan portfolio. The allowance for credit losses is determined based on our
current estimate of expected credit losses over the remaining contractual term, historical credit losses, consumer
payment trends, estimates of recoveries, and future expectations as of each balance sheet date. Adjustments to the
allowance each period for changes in our estimate of lifetime expected credit losses are recognized in earnings
through the provision for credit losses presented on our consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive
loss. When available information confirms that specific loans or portions thereof are uncollectible, identified
amounts are charged against the allowance for credit losses. Loans are charged-off in accordance with our charge-
off policy, as the contractual principal becomes 120 days past due. Subsequent recoveries of the unpaid principal
balance, if any, are credited to the allowance for credit losses.

5. Acquisitions

Fast

On April 19, 2022, Affirm completed the closing of the transaction contemplated by a Release and Waiver
Agreement entered into with Fast AF, Inc., (“Fast”) relating to the hiring of certain of its employees or service
providers and an option to acquire certain of its assets. The purchase price was comprised of (i) $10.0 million in cash
and (ii) forgiveness of a $15.0 million senior secured note issued to Fast in April 2022 prior to the closing.
The acquisition was accounted for as an asset acquisition in accordance with ASC Topic 805, “Business
Combinations” (“ASC 805”) since the assets acquired do not meet the definition of a business. The acquired
identifiable intangible assets have been recorded at a total cost of $25.4 million, which includes approximately $0.4
million of transaction costs associated with the acquisition. The excess of the total cost of the assets over their total
fair value was allocated between the assets on the basis of their relative fair values. The fair values of the intangible
assets were determined by applying the replacement cost method. The fair value measurements are based on
significant unobservable inputs, including management estimates and assumptions, and thus represent Level 3
measurements.
The following table sets forth the identifiable intangible assets acquired and the cost allocated to each asset
as of the date of acquisition (in thousands):

7. Leases

We lease facilities under operating leases with various expiration dates through 2030. We have the option
to renew or extend our leases. Certain lease agreements include the option to terminate the lease with prior written
notice ranging from 180 days to one year. As of June 30, 2022, we have not considered such provisions in the
determination of the lease term, as it is not reasonably certain these options will be exercised. Leases have remaining
terms that range from less than one year to eight years.
Several leases require us to obtain standby letters of credit, naming the lessor as a beneficiary. These letters
of credit act as security for the faithful performance by us of all terms, covenants and conditions of the lease
agreement. The cash collateral and deposits for the letters of credit have been recognized as restricted cash in the
consolidated balance sheets and totaled $9.7 million and $9.9 million as of June 30, 2022 and June 30, 2021,
respectively.
As of June 30, 2022, right-of-use assets of $50.7 million were included in other assets, and the related

Roth 401(k) plan using post-tax dollars. We have not made any matching contributions to date.

Health and Welfare Benefits

We provide health and welfare benefits to our employees, including health, dental, prescription drug and
vision for which we are fully-insured. The expense incurred associated with these benefits was $20.6 million, $10.5
million, and $7.1 million for the years ended June 30, 2022, 2021, and 2020, respectively.

9. Commitments and Contingencies

Repurchase Obligation

Under the normal terms of our whole loans sales to third-party investors, we may become obligated to
repurchase loans from investors in certain instances where a breach in representation and warranties is identified.
Generally, a breach in representation and warranties would occur where a loan has been identified as subject to
verified or suspected fraud, or in cases where a loan was serviced or originated in violation of Affirm’s guidelines.
We would only experience a loss if the contractual repurchase price of the loan exceeds the fair value on the
repurchase date. The aggregate outstanding balance of loans held by third-party investors or unconsolidated VIEs
was $4,504.5 million and $2,453.9 million as of June 30, 2022 and June 30, 2021, respectively, of which we have
recorded a repurchase liability of $2.0 million and $2.1 million as of June 30, 2022 and June 30, 2021, respectively,
within accrued expenses and other liabilities in our consolidated balance sheets.

Legal Proceedings

From time to time, we are subject to legal proceedings and claims in the ordinary course of business. The
results of such matters often cannot be predicted with certainty. In accordance with applicable accounting guidance,
we establish an accrued liability for legal proceedings and claims when those matters present loss contingencies
which are both probable and reasonably estimable.

APPENDIX II

Toole v. Affirm Holdings, Inc.

On February 28, 2022, plaintiff Jeffrey Toole filed a putative class action against Affirm and Max Levchin
in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California (the “Toole action”). The Toole complaint alleges
that Affirm violated Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Exchange Act, and Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder by
issuing and then subsequently deleting a tweet from its official Twitter account on February 10, 2022, which omitted
full details of Affirm’s second quarter fiscal 2022 financial results. Toole seeks class certification, unspecified
compensatory and punitive damages, and costs and expenses. On June 9, 2022, the Court appointed Eric Nunez as
lead plaintiff and Robbins Geller Rudman & Dowd LLP as class counsel.

Vallieres v Levchin, et al.

On April 25, 2022, plaintiff Michael Vallieres filed a derivative lawsuit in the U.S. District Court for the
Northern District of California against Affirm, as a nominal defendant, and certain of Affirm’s current officers and
directors as defendants based on allegations substantially similar to those in the Toole action. The Vallieres
complaint purports to assert claims on Affirm's behalf for breach of fiduciary duty, gross mismanagement, abuse of
control, unjust enrichment, and contribution under the federal securities laws, and seeks corporate reforms,
unspecified damages and restitution, and fees and costs. On June 10, 2022, the Court stayed this derivative action
pending the resolution of Affirm’s anticipated motion to dismiss the Toole complaint referenced above.
We have determined, based on current knowledge, that the aggregate amount or range of losses that are
estimable with respect to the our legal proceedings, including the matters described above, would not have a
material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows. Amounts accrued
as of June 30, 2022 were not material. The ultimate outcome of legal proceedings involves judgments, estimates and
inherent uncertainties, and cannot be predicted with certainty.

Concentrations of Credit Risk

We have substantial credit risk primarily in our consumer loans held for investment and in our cash and
cash equivalents. We maintain our cash and cash equivalents in accounts at regulated domestic financial institutions
in amounts that may exceed FDIC insured amounts.We believe we are not exposed to any significant credit risk in
these accounts.
We are exposed to default risk on both loan receivables purchased from our originating bank partners and
loan receivables that are self-originated. The ultimate collectability of a substantial portion of the loan portfolio is
susceptible to changes in economic and market conditions. Loans receivables are diversified geographically. As of
June 30, 2022 and June 30, 2021, approximately 12% and 15%, respectively, of loan receivables related to
customers residing in the state of California. No other states or provinces exceeded 10%.

Concentrations of Revenue

For the year ended June 30, 2022, there were no merchants that exceeded 10% of total revenue, and for the
years ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, approximately 20% and 28% , respectively, of total revenue was driven by one
merchant.

Purchase Commitments

For the years ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, we recorded purchase commitments of $37.1 million and
$89.3 million, respectively, primarily related to cloud and hosting services. In February 2012, we entered into an
agreement with a third-party cloud computing web services provider for our cloud computing and hosting services.
In May 2020, we entered into an addendum to our agreement which included annual spending commitments for the
period between May 2020 and April 2023 with an aggregate committed spend of $120.0 million during such period.
Our agreement with our cloud computing web services provider will continue indefinitely until terminated by either
party. Our cloud-computing web services provider may terminate the customer agreement for convenience with 30

days prior written notice and may, in some cases, terminate the agreement immediately for cause upon notice. If we
fail to meet the minimum purchase commitment during any year, we may be required to pay the difference. We pay
our cloud-computing web services provider monthly, and we may pay more than the minimum purchase
commitment to our cloud-computing web services provider based on usage.

10. Transactions with Related Parties

In the ordinary course of business, we may enter into transactions with directors, principal officers, their
immediate families and affiliated companies in which they are principal stockholders (commonly referred to as
related parties). Some of our directors, principal officers, and their immediate families have received loans
facilitated by us, in accordance with our regular consumer loan offerings. As of June 30, 2022, the outstanding
balance and interest earned on such loans is immaterial.

11. Debt

Debt encompasses funding debt, convertible senior notes and our revolving credit facility.

Warehouse Credit Facilities

Through trusts, we entered into warehouse credit facilities with certain lenders to finance the purchase and
origination of our loans. Each trust entered into a credit agreement and security agreement with a third-party as
administrative agent and a national banking association as collateral trustee and paying agent. Borrowings under
these agreements are referred to as funding debt and proceeds from the borrowings can only be used for the purposes
of facilitating loan funding and origination, with advance rates ranging from 83% to 88% of the total collateralized
balance. These trusts are bankruptcy-remote special-purpose vehicles in which creditors do not have recourse
against the general credit of Affirm. These revolving facilities mature between fiscal years 2024 and 2029, and
subject to covenant compliance, generally permit borrowings up to 12 months prior to the final maturity date of each
respective facility. As of June 30, 2022, the aggregate commitment amount of these facilities was $2,450.0 million
on a revolving basis, of which $473.3 million was drawn, with $1,976.7 million remaining available. Some of the
loans originated by us or purchased from the originating bank partners are pledged as collateral for borrowings in
our facilities. The unpaid principal balance of these loans totaled $549.6 million and $664.1 million as of June 30,
2022 and June 30, 2021, respectively.
Borrowings under these warehouse credit facilities bear interest at an annual benchmark rate of LIBOR or
an alternative commercial paper rate (which is either (i) the per annum rate equivalent to the weighted-average of the
per annum rates at which all commercial paper notes were issued by certain lenders to fund advances or maintain
124

APPENDIX II

loans, or (ii) the daily weighted-average of LIBOR, as set forth in the applicable credit agreement), plus a spread
ranging from 1.65% to 4.00%. Interest is payable monthly. In addition, these agreements require payment of a
monthly unused commitment fee ranging from 0.00% to 0.75% per annum on the undrawn portion available.
These agreements contain certain customary negative covenants and financial covenants including
maintaining certain levels of minimum liquidity, maximum leverage, and minimum tangible net worth. As of
June 30, 2022, we were in compliance with all applicable covenants in the agreements.

Other Funding Facilities

Prior to our acquisition of PayBright on January 1, 2021, PayBright entered into various credit facilities
utilized to finance the origination of loan receivables in Canada. Similar to our warehouse credit facilities,
borrowings under these agreements are referred to as funding debt, and proceeds from the borrowings may only be
used for the purposes of facilitating loan funding and origination. These facilities are secured by PayBright loan
receivables pledged to the respective facility as collateral, mature in 2024, and bear interest based on a benchmark
rate plus a spread ranging from 1.25% to 4.25%.
As of June 30, 2022, the aggregate commitment amount of these facilities was $484.0 million on a
revolving basis, of which $183.1 million was drawn, with $300.9 million remaining available. The unpaid principal
balance of loans pledged to these facilities totaled $210.1 million and $74.1 million as of June 30, 2022 and June 30,
2021, respectively.
These agreements contain certain customary negative covenants and financial covenants including
maintaining certain levels of minimum liquidity, maximum leverage, and minimum tangible net worth at the
PayBright subsidiary level or the Affirm Holdings level. As of June 30, 2022, we were in compliance with all
applicable covenants in the agreements.

Repurchase Agreements

We entered into certain sale and repurchase agreements pursuant to our retained interests in our off-balance
sheet securitizations where we have sold these securities to a counterparty with an obligation to repurchase at a
future date and price. The repurchase agreements each have an initial term of three months and subject to mutual
agreement by Affirm and the counterparty, we may enter into a repurchase date extension for an additional three
month term at market interest rates on such extension date. As of June 30, 2022, the interest rates were 2.68% on the
senior pledged securities for 2022-X1, 2021-Z1 and 2021-Z2 and 4.33% on the residual certificate pledged securities
for 2022-X1, 2021-Z1 and 2021-Z2 . We had $27.0 million and $13.9 million in debt outstanding under our
repurchase agreements disclosed within funding debt on the consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 2022 and
June 30, 2021, respectively. The debt will be amortized through regular principal and interest payments on the
pledged securities. The outstanding debt relates to $32.4 million and $16.2 million in pledged securities disclosed
within securities available for sale at fair value on the consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 2022 and June 30,
2021, respectively.

Convertible Senior Notes

On November 23, 2021, we issued $1,725 million in aggregate principal amount of 0% convertible senior
notes due 2026 (the “2026 Notes”) in a private placement to qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A
under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The total net proceeds from this offering, after deducting debt
issuance costs, were approximately $1,704 million. The 2026 Notes represent senior unsecured obligations of the
Company. The 2026 Notes do not bear interest except in special circumstances described below, and the principal
amount of the 2026 Notes does not accrete. The 2026 Notes mature on November 15, 2026.
Each $1,000 of principal of the 2026 Notes will initially be convertible into 4.6371 shares of our common
stock, which is equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $215.65 per share, subject to adjustment

upon the occurrence of certain specified events set forth in the indenture governing the 2026 Notes (the
“Indenture”). Holders of the 2026 Notes may convert their 2026 Notes at their option at any time on or after
August 15, 2026 until close of business on the second scheduled trading day immediately preceding the maturity
date of November 15, 2026. Further, holders of the 2026 Notes may convert all or any portion of their 2026 Notes at
their option prior to the close of business on the business day immediately preceding August 15, 2026, only under
the following circumstances:
1) during any calendar quarter commencing after March 31, 2022 (and only during such calendar quarter), if
the last reported sale price of the Class A common stock for at least 20 trading days (whether or not
consecutive) during a period of 30 consecutive trading days ending on, and including, the last trading day of
the immediately preceding calendar quarter is greater than or equal to 130% of the conversion price on each
applicable trading day;
2) during the five business day period after any five consecutive trading day period (the measurement
period) in which the trading price (as defined in the indenture governing the 2026 Notes) per $1,000
principal amount of the 2026 Notes for each trading day of the measurement period was less than 98% of the
product of the last reported sale price of the Company’s Class A common stock and the conversion rate on
each such trading day;
3) if the Company calls any or all of the notes for redemption, at any time prior to the close of business on
the scheduled trading day immediately preceding the redemption date; or

4) upon the occurrence of certain specified corporate events.

Upon conversion of the 2026 Notes, the Company will pay or deliver, as the case may be, cash, shares of
our common stock or a combination of cash and shares of our common stock, at the Company’s election. If we
satisfy our conversion obligation solely in cash or through payment and delivery, as the case may be, of a
combination of cash and shares of our common stock, the amount of cash and shares of common stock, if any, due
upon conversion will be based on a daily conversion value (as set forth in the Indenture) calculated on a
proportionate basis for each trading day in a 40 trading day observation period.
No sinking fund is provided for the 2026 Notes. We may not redeem the notes prior to November 20, 2024.
We may redeem for cash all or part of the notes on or after November 20, 2024 if the last reported sale price of our
Class A common stock has been at least 130% of the conversion price then in effect for at least 20 trading days
(whether or not consecutive) during any 30 consecutive trading day period (including the last trading day of such
period) ending on, and including, the trading day immediately preceding the date on which we provide notice of
redemption at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the notes to be redeemed, plus accrued
and unpaid special interest, if any.
If a fundamental change (as defined in the Indenture) occurs prior to the maturity date, holders of the 2026
Notes may require us to repurchase all or a portion of their notes for cash at a repurchase price equal to 100% of the
principal amount of the 2026 Notes, plus any accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the repurchase date. In
addition, if specific corporate events occur prior to the maturity date of the 2026 Notes, we will be required to
increase the conversion rate for holders who elect to convert their 2026 Notes in connection with such corporate
events.

Revolving Credit Facility

On January 19, 2021, we entered into a revolving credit agreement with a syndicate of commercial banks
for a $185.0 million unsecured revolving credit facility with a final maturity date of January 19, 2024. Effective
December 15, 2021, we executed our right to terminate the revolving credit agreement and no early termination
penalties were incurred. As of December 15, 2021, we had not drawn on the facility and there was no outstanding
balance to be repaid. Upon termination, we accelerated the amortization of $1.2 million of issuance costs which
were recorded in other (expense) income, net.
On February 4, 2022, we entered into a new revolving credit agreement with a syndicate of commercial banks
for a $165.0 million unsecured revolving credit facility. On May 16, 2022, we increased unsecured revolving
commitments under the facility to $205.0 million. This facility bears interest at a rate equal to, at our option, either
(a) a Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) rate determined by reference to the forward-looking term SOFR
rate for the interest period, plus an applicable margin of 1.85% per annum or (b) a base rate determined by reference
to the highest of (i) the federal funds rate plus 0.50% per annum, (ii) the rate last quoted by the Wall Street Journal
as the U.S. prime rate and (iii) the one-month forward-looking term SOFR rate plus 1.0% per annum, in each case,
plus an applicable margin of 0.85% per annum. The revolving credit agreement has a final maturity date of
February 4, 2025. The facility contains certain covenants and restrictions, including certain financial maintenance
covenants, and requires payment of a monthly unused commitment fee of 0.20% per annum on the undrawn balance
available. There are no borrowings outstanding under the facility as of June 30, 2022.

12. Securitization and Variable Interest Entities

Consolidated VIEs

We consolidate VIEs when we are deemed to be the primary beneficiary.

Warehouse Credit Facilities

We established certain entities, deemed to be VIEs, to enter into warehouse credit facilities for the purpose
of purchasing loans from our originating bank partners and funding self-originated loans. Refer to Note 11. Debt for
additional information. The creditors of the VIEs have no recourse to the general credit of Affirm and the liabilities
of the VIEs can only be settled by the respective VIEs’ assets; however, as the servicer of the loans pledged to our
warehouse funding facilities, we have the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the VIEs'
economic performance.In addition, we retain significant economic exposure to the pledged loans and therefore, we
are the primary beneficiary.
127

– II-116 –

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF AFFIRM

APPENDIX II

Securitizations

In connection with our asset-backed securitization program, we sponsor and establish trusts (deemed to be
VIEs) to ultimately purchase loans facilitated by our platform. Securities issued from our asset-backed
securitizations are senior or subordinated, based on the waterfall criteria of loan payments to each security class. The
subordinated residual interests issued from these transactions are first to absorb credit losses in accordance with the
waterfall criteria. For these VIEs, the creditors have no recourse to the general credit of Affirm and the liabilities of
the VIEs can only be settled by the respective VIEs’ assets. Additionally, the assets of the VIEs can be used only to
settle obligations of the VIEs.
We consolidate securitization VIEs when we are deemed to be the primary beneficiary and therefore have
the power to direct the activities that most significantly affect the VIEs’ economic performance and a variable
interest that could potentially be significant to the VIE. Through our role as the servicer, we have the power to direct
the activities that most significantly affect the VIEs’ economic performance. In evaluating whether we have a
variable interest that could potentially be significant to the VIE, we consider our retained interests. We also earn a
servicing fee which has a senior distribution priority in the payment waterfall.
In evaluating whether we are the primary beneficiary, management considers both qualitative and
quantitative factors regarding the nature, size and form of our involvement with the VIEs. Management assesses
whether we are the primary beneficiary of the VIEs on an ongoing basis.
Where we consolidate the securitization trusts, the loans held in the securitization trusts are included in
loans held for investment, and the notes sold to third-party investors are recorded in notes issued by securitization
trusts in the consolidated balance sheets.
As of June 30, 2022, we consolidated Affirm Asset Securitization Trust 2020-Z1 (“2020-Z1”), Affirm
Asset Securitization Trust 2020-A (“2020-A”), Affirm Asset Securitization Trust 2020-Z2 (“2020-Z2”), Affirm
Asset Securitization Trust 2021-A (“2021-A”), Affirm Asset Securitization Trust 2021-B (“2021-B”), and Affirm
Asset Securitization Trust 2022-A (“2022-A”). Each securitization trust issued interest-bearing notes and residual
certificates to finance the purchase of the loans facilitated by our platform. At the closing of each securitization, we
contributed loans, facilitated through our technology platform and purchased from our originating bank partners,
with an aggregate outstanding principal balance of $2,554.3 million. The 2020-Z1 and 2020-Z2 securitizations are
secured by static pools of loans contributed at closing, whereas the 2021-A, 2021-B, and 2022-A securitizations are
revolving and we may contribute additional loans from time to time until the end of the revolving period. For the
2020-Z2 securitization, we purchased $27.9 million of loan receivables from our third-party loan buyers which were
then contributed to the trust.
For each securitization, the residual certificates represent the right to receive excess cash on the loans each
collection period after all fees and required distributions have been made to the note holders on the related payment
date. For 2020-Z1, 2020-A, 2021-A, 2021-B, and 2022-A, all notes were sold to third-party investors and we
retained 100% of the residual certificates issued by the securitization trusts. For 2020-Z2, all notes were sold to
third-party investors and we retained 93.3% of the residual certificates issued by the securitization trust, and a third-
party investor holds the remaining 6.7% of the residual certificates in 2020-Z2. The residual trust certificates held by
third-party investors are measured at fair value, using a discounted cash flow model, and presented within accrued
expenses and other liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets. In addition to the retained residual certificates, our
continued involvement includes loan servicing responsibilities over the life of the underlying loans.
We defer and amortize debt issuance costs for consolidated securitization trusts on a straight-line basis over
the expected life of the notes.

APPENDIX II

For each securitization, the residual certificates represent the right to receive excess cash on the loans each
collection period after all fees and required distributions have been made to the note holders on the related payment
date. For 2021-Z1, 2021-Z2, 2022-X1, and 2022-Z1, we retained a 5% vertical interest in each trust, respectively,
via our ownership of 5% par amount of each class of notes, and 5% par amount of residual interests. The remaining
95% of notes and residual interests were sold to third-party investors.

2021-Z1

OnMay 5, 2021, the notes under 2021-Z1 securitization were issued as a single class: Class A in the
amount of$320.0 million(the “2021-Z1 notes”). The 2021-Z1 notes bear interest at a fixed rate of1.07%and have a
maturity date ofAugust 15, 2025. Principal and interest payments began in June 2021 and are payable monthly.
The 2021-Z1 securitization is secured by a static pool of loans which were contributed at the closing date to
the 2021-Z1 trust. The loans contributed at closing were facilitated through our technology platform and purchased
from our originating bank partners, with an aggregate outstanding principal balance of$351.0 million. Of the loans
sold to the 2021-Z1 trust, we purchased$41.4 millionof loan receivables from one of our third-party loan buyers,
which were contributed to the trust at closing.
At closing, we retained 5% of the 2021-Z1 notes and 86.9% of the residual certificates issued by the 2021-
Z1 trust. The third-party loan contributor received 13.1% of the residual certificates at closing. OnMay 17, 2021, we
sold a majority of the residual certificates retained at closing, comprising81.9%of the par value, tofivethird-party
investors. Subsequent to this sale, we retained only a5%vertical interest in the 2021-Z1 trust via our ownership of
5%par amount of the 2021-Z1 notes and5%par amount of the residual interests. We were required to retain these
interests for compliance with U.S. risk retention rules.
We initially consolidated the 2021-Z1 trust at closing due to retaining a majority of the residual interest.
However, upon completing the subsequent third-party sale of81.9%of the residual certificates onMay 17, 2021, we
determined that we no longer had significant economic exposure through our variable interests and as such, we
determined that we were no longer the primary beneficiary as of this date.
Upon deconsolidating the 2021-Z1 trust, we recognized a gain of$16.7 million, which is included within
gain on sale ofloans in our consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.

have a maturity date ofNovember 16, 2026. Principal and interest payments began inJanuary 2022and are payable
monthly.
The 2021-Z2 securitization is secured by a static pool of loans which were contributed at the closing date to
the 2021-Z2 trust. The loans contributed at closing were facilitated through our technology platform and purchased
from our originating bank partners, with an aggregate outstanding principal balance of$287.5 million. Of the loans
sold to the 2021-Z2 trust, we purchased$192.5 millionof loan receivables fromoneof our third-party loan buyers,
which were contributed to the trust at closing.
At closing, we retained only a5%vertical interest in the 2021-Z2 trust via our ownership of5%par amount
of the 2021-Z2 notes and5%par amount of the residual interests. We were required to retain these interests for
compliance with U.S. risk retention rules. The third-party loan contributor received95%of the residual certificates

amount of the 2022-X1 notes and 5% par amount of the residual interests. We were required to retain these interests
for compliance with U.S. risk retention rules. The remaining 95% of the residual certificates were sold to third-party

2021-Z2, 2022-X1 and 2022-Z1, this amount was not material as of June 30, 2022.

Retained Beneficial Interests in Unconsolidated VIEs

The investors of the securitizations have no direct recourse to the assets of Affirm, and the timing and
amount of beneficial interest payments is dependent on the performance of the underlying loan assets held within
each trust. We have classified our retained beneficial interests in 2021-Z1, 2021-Z2, 2022-X1, and 2022-Z1 as
“available for sale” and as such they are disclosed at fair value in our consolidated balance sheets.
See Note 13. Investmentsand Note 14. Fair Value of Financial Assets and Liabilitiesfor additional
information on the fair value sensitivity of the notes receivable and residual certificates. Additionally, as of June 30,
2022, we have pledged the 2021-Z1, 2021-Z2, and 2022-X1 retained beneficial interests as collateral in connection
with a sale andrepurchase agreement as described in Note 11. Debt.

Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis (Level 2)

Securities Available for Sale

As of June 30, 2022, we held marketable securities classified as available for sale. Management obtains
pricing from one or more third-party pricing services for the purpose of determining fair value. Whenever available,
the fair value is based on quoted bid prices as of the end of the trading day. When quoted prices are not available,
other methods may be utilized including evaluated prices provided by third-party pricing services.

Derivative Instruments

Our primary objective in holding derivatives is to reduce the volatility in cash flows associated with our
funding activities, arising from changes in interest rates. We do not employ derivatives for trading or speculative
purposes.
As of June 30, 2022 and June 30, 2021, we used a combination of interest rate cap agreements and interest
rate swaps to manage interest costs and the risk associated with variable interest rates. Neither the interest rate caps
or the interest rate swaps have been designated as hedging instruments.
As ofJune 30, 2022 and June 30, 2021, the interest rate caps and interest rate swaps are in a net asset
position, and classified as Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy, based on prices quoted for similar financial
instruments in markets that are not active. The fair values are presented gross within other assets and offsetting
collateral received by the counterparty is presented as a liability within accrued expenses and other liabilities on the
consolidated balance sheets. Any changes in the fair value of these financial instruments are reflected in other
(expense) income, net, on the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.

APPENDIX II

Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis using Significant Unobservable Inputs (Level 3)

We evaluate our financial assets and liabilities subject to fair value measurements on a recurring basis to
determine the appropriate level at which to classify them each reporting period. Since our servicing assets and
liabilities, performance fee liability, securitization notes and residual trust certificates, contingent consideration, and
profit share liability do not trade in an active market with readily observable prices, we use significant unobservable
inputs to measure fair value. This determination requires significant judgments to be made.

Servicing Assets and Liabilities

We sold loans with an unpaid balance of $7,149.0 million, $3,232.9 million, and $2,664.4 million for the
years ended June 30, 2022, 2021, and 2020, respectively, for which we retained servicing rights.
As of June 30, 2022 and June 30, 2021, we serviced loans which we sold with a remaining unpaid principal
balance of $4,504.5 million and $2,453.9 million, respectively.
We use discounted cash flow models to arrive at an estimate of fair value. Significant assumptions used in
the valuation of our servicing rights are as follows:

Adequate Compensation

We estimate adequate compensation as the rate a willing market participant would require for servicing
loans with similar characteristics as those in the serviced portfolio.

Discount Rate

Estimated future payments to be received under servicing agreements are discounted as a part of
determining the fair value of the servicing rights. For servicing rights on loans, the discount rate reflects the time
value of money and a risk premium intended to reflect the amount of compensation market participants would
require.

Net Default Rate

We estimate the timing and probability of early loan payoffs, loan defaults and write-offs, thus affecting the
projected unpaid principal balance and expected term of the loan, which are used to project future servicing revenue
and expenses.
We earned $65.8 million, $24.7 million, and $14.8 million of servicing income for the year ended June 30,
2022, 2021, and 2020, respectively.

Performance Fee Liability

In accordance with our agreements with our originating bank partners, we pay a fee for each loan that is
fully repaid by the consumer, due at the end of the period in which the loan is fully repaid. We recognize a liability
upon the purchase of a loan for the expected future payment of the performance fee. This liability is measured using
a discounted cash flow model and recorded at fair value and presented within accrued expenses and other liabilities
on the consolidated balance sheets. Any changes in the fair value of the liability are reflected in other (expense)

Contingent Consideration

Our acquisition of PayBright included consideration transferred and shares held in escrow, contingent upon
the achievement of future milestones. We classified the contingent consideration as a liability. The acquisition date
fair value of the contingent consideration liability was estimated using a Monte Carlo simulation in which the fair
value is equal to the estimated number of shares to be released from escrow, which are determined based on
simulated revenue, multiplied by the simulated share price, discounted at the risk-free rate. The liability is
remeasured to its fair value at each reporting date, utilizing a Monte Carlo simulation for periods in which actual
revenues are unknown, until the contingency is resolved. During the year endedJune 30, 2022one of these
milestones was achieved and a portion of the shares were released from escrow, resulting in a reduction to the
contingent liability. The change in fair value of the contingent consideration at each reporting date is recognized as a
component of other (expense) income, netin the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss for
the respective period.

Profit Share Liability

During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2021, we entered into a commercial agreement with an enterprise
partner, in which we are obligated to share in the profitability of transactions facilitated by our platform. Upon

15. Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock and Stockholders’ Equity

Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock

During the year ended June 30, 2021, we issued 21,836,687 shares of Series G redeemable convertible
preferred stock at $19.93 per share for an aggregate purchase amount of $434.9 million. These shares had a
liquidation preference of $435.1 million. As part of this equity financing round, the convertible notes issued in
April 2020 converted into 4,444,321 shares of Series G-1 redeemable convertible preferred stock. These shares had
a liquidation preference of $75.3 million prior to conversion.
On January 12, 2021, prior to our IPO, all outstanding shares of redeemable convertible preferred stock
were converted into shares of our common stock on a one-to-one basis and their carrying value of $1.3 billion was
reclassified into stockholders' deficit. Following this conversion, we amended and restated our certificate of
incorporation to effect a reclassification of each share of our outstanding common stock into ½ share of Class A
common stock and ½ share of Class B common stock, with cash paid for fractional shares. As of June 30, 2022 and
June 30, 2021, there were no shares of redeemable convertible preferred stock issued and outstanding.

Common Stock

The Company had shares of common stock reserved for issuance as follows:
June 30, 2022 June 30, 2021
Available outstanding under stock plan 53,158,233 58,417,514
Available for future grant under stock plan 31,156,746 29,793,755
Total 84,314,979 88,211,269
The common stock is not redeemable. We have two classes of common stock: Class A common stock and
Class B common stock. Each holder of Class A common stock has the right to one vote per share of common stock.
Each holder of Class B common stock has the right to 15 votes and can be converted at any time into one share of
Class A common stock. Holders of Class A and Class B common stock are entitled to notice of any stockholders’
meeting in accordance with the bylaws of the corporation, and are entitled to vote upon such matters and in such
manner as may be provided by law. Subject to the prior rights of holders of all classes of stock at the time
outstanding having prior rights as to dividends, the holders of the common stock are entitled to receive, when and as
declared by the Board of Directors, out of any assets of the corporation legally available therefore, such dividends as
may be declared from time to time by the Board of Directors.

Common Stock Warrants

Common stock warrants are included as a component of additional paid in capital within the consolidated
balance sheets.
During the year ended June 30, 2022, we granted warrants to purchase 22,000,000 shares of common stock
in connection with a commercial agreement with Amazon. 7,000,000 of the warrant shares have an exercise price of
$0.01 per share and a term of 3.5 years, while the remaining 15,000,000 warrant shares have an exercise price of
$100 per share and a term of 7.5 years. We valued the warrants at the grant date using the Black-Scholes-Merton
option pricing model with the following assumptions: a dividend yield of zero; years to maturity of 3.5 and 7.5
years, respectively; volatility of 45%; and a risk-free rate of 0.93% and 1.47%, respectively. In connection with the
portion of these warrants that were fully vested upon execution, we recognized a commercial agreement asset of
$133.5 million upon execution of the agreement in November 2021. Refer to Note 6. Balance Sheet Components for
more information on the asset and related amortization during the period. The remaining grant-date fair value of the
warrants will be recognized within our consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss as a
component of sales and marketing expense as the warrants vest, based upon Amazon’s satisfaction of the vesting
conditions. In connection with the warrants, a total of $281.0 million was recognized within sales and marketing

16. Equity Incentive Plans

2012 Stock Plan

Under our Amended and Restated 2012 Stock Plan (the “Plan”), we may grant incentive and nonqualified
stock options, restricted stock, and restricted stock units (“RSUs”) to employees, officers, directors, and consultants.
As of June 30, 2022, the maximum number of shares of common stock which may be issued under the Plan is
118,374,202 Class A shares. As of June 30, 2022 and June 30, 2021, there were 31,156,746 and 29,793,755 shares
of Class A common stock, respectively, available for future grants under the Plan.

Stock Options

For stock options granted before our IPO in January 2021, the minimum expiration period is seven years
after termination of employment or 10 years from the date of grant. For stock options granted after our IPO, the
minimum expiration period is three months after termination of employment or 10 years from the date of grant.
Stock options generally vest over a period of four years or with 25% vesting on the 12 month anniversary of the
vesting commencement date, and the remainder vesting on a pro-rata basis each month over the next three years.

The weighted-average grant date fair value of employee options granted for the years ended June 30, 2022,
2021, and 2020, was $13.29, $59.83, and $3.26, respectively. The aggregate intrinsic value of options exercised was
approximately $1.4 billion, $706.7 million, and $3.1 million for the years ended June 30, 2022, 2021, and 2020,
respectively. The total fair value of stock options vested during the years ended June 30, 2022, 2021, and 2020 was
$30.3 million, $97.4 million, and $53.9 million, respectively.
The fair value of each option on the date of grant is determined using the Black Scholes-Merton option
pricing model using the single-option award approach with the weighted-average assumptions set forth in the table
below. Volatility is based on historical volatility rates obtained from certain public companies that operate in the
same or related business as us since there is a limited period of historical market data for our common stock. The
risk-free interest rate is determined using a U.S. Treasury rate for the period that coincides with the expected term
set forth. We used the simplified method to determine an estimate of the expected term of an employee share option.

Volatility 54% 46% 45%

Expected dividend yield
As of June 30, 2022, unrecognized compensation expense related to unvested stock options was
approximately $67.0 million. The weighted-average period over which such compensation expense will be
recognized is approximately 1.9 years.
When an employee exercises stock options, we collect and remit taxes on the employee’s behalf to
applicable taxing authorities. As of June 30, 2022 and June 30, 2021, the balance of equity exercise taxes payable
was $10.9 million and $23.7 million, respectively, which is included in accounts payable on the consolidated
balance sheets.

Stock Options with Early Exercise Rights

In accordance with the Plan, for certain stock options issued prior to the IPO, we allow for early exercise of
the options while retaining the right to repurchase any unvested options upon termination of employment at the

accrued expenses and other liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets. As of June 30, 2022 and June 30, 2021, the
early exercise liability totaled $0.3 million and $0.9 million, respectively.

Value Creation Award

In November 2020, in connection with an overall review of the compensation of Max Levchin, our Chief
Executive Officer, in advance of the IPO, and taking into account Mr. Levchin’s leadership since the inception of
the Company, the comparatively modest level of cash compensation he had received from the Company during his
many years of service, and that he did not hold any unvested equity awards, the Company's Board of Directors
approved a long-term, multi-year performance-based stock option grant providing Mr. Levchin with the opportunity
to earn the right to purchase up to 12,500,000 shares of the Company's Class A common stock (the “Value Creation
Award”).
As discussed below, the Value Creation Award will only be earned, if at all, in the event the price of our
Class A common stock attains stock price hurdles that are significantly in excess of the Company's IPO price per
share, over a period of five years, subject to Mr. Levchin’s continued service to the Company.
The Value Creation Award is divided into ten tranches, each of which Mr. Levchin may earn by satisfying
a performance condition within a five-year period following the IPO. The performance condition for each tranche
will be satisfied on the date the 90 average trading day volume weighted share price of the Company’s Class A
common stock exceeds certain specified stock price hurdles, presented in the table below, which were determined
based on a target percentage of share price appreciation from the IPO price. Once earned as a result of satisfying the
performance condition, the options will vest and become exercisable over a five-year period that commenced at the
time of the IPO, subject to Mr. Levchin’s continued service to the Company, in annual amounts equal to 15%, 15%,
20%, 25% and 25%, respectively. The per share exercise price of the Value Creation Award is $49.00, the price to
the public in the IPO.

We estimated the fair value of the Value Creation Award granted with market conditions on the grant date
using a Monte Carlo simulation model. We recognize stock-based compensation on these awards based on the grant
date fair value using an accelerated attribution method over the requisite service period, and only if performance-
based conditions are considered probable of being satisfied. During the years ended June 30, 2022 and June 30,
2021, we incurred stock-based compensation expense of $140.7 million and $83.9 million, respectively, associated
with the Value Creation Award as a component of general and administrative expense within the consolidated
statements of operations and comprehensive loss. During the year ended June 30, 2022, based on achievement of the

stock price hurdles and time-based service conditions, 1,875,000 shares vested. As of June 30, 2022, none of these
awards have been exercised.
As of June 30, 2022, unrecognized compensation expense related to the Value Creation Award was
approximately $207.5 million. The period over which such compensation expense will be recognized is
approximately 3.5 years.

Restricted Stock Units

RSUs granted prior to the IPO were subject to two vesting conditions: a service-based vesting condition
(i.e., employment over a period of time) and a performance-based vesting condition (i.e., a liquidity event in the
form of either a change of control or an initial public offering, each as defined in the Plan), both of which must be
met in order to vest. The performance-based condition was met upon the IPO. We record stock-based compensation
expense for those RSUs on an accelerated attribution method over the requisite service period, which is generally
four years. RSUs granted after IPO are subject to a service-based vesting condition. We record stock-based
compensation expense for service-based RSUs on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period, which is
generally one to four years.
The following table summarizes our RSU activity during the year ended June 30, 2022:

approximately 2.0 years.

2020 Employee Stock Purchase Plan

On November 18, 2020, our Board of Directors adopted and approved the 2020 Employee Stock Purchase
Plan (“ESPP”). The purpose of the ESPP is to secure the services of new employees, to retain the services of
existing employees and to provide incentives for such individuals to exert maximum effort towards the success of
the Company and that of its affiliates. A total of 8.9 million shares of Class A common stock were reserved and
available for issuance under the ESPP and 149,137 shares have been issued as of June 30, 2022. The ESPP provides
for six-month offering periods beginning December 1 and June 1 of each year. The first offering period began on
December 1, 2021, and the second offering period began on June 1, 2022.
At the end of each offering period, shares of our Class A common stock are purchased on behalf of each
ESPP participant at a price per share equal to 85% of the lesser of (1) the fair market value of the Class A common
stock on first day of the offering period (the grant date) or (2) the fair market value of the Class A common stock on
the last day of the offering period (the purchase date). We use the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model to
measure the fair value of the purchase rights issued under the ESPP at the first day of the offering period, which
represents the grant date. The Black-Scholes-Merton model incorporates assumptions including the dividend yield,
expected stock price volatility, expected term, and risk-free interest rates. We utilized the following assumptions: a
dividend yield of zero; a 0.5 year expected term based on the six-month offering period; the historical stock price
volatility of comparable publicly-traded companies in our industry group; and a risk-free rate corresponding to a

In connection with the acquisition of Returnly on May 1, 2021, we issued 304,364 shares of our Class A
common stock, which are held in escrow. Because the future payment of the escrowed shares is contingent on
continued employment of certain employees, the arrangement represents stock-based compensation in the post
combination period. The grant-date fair value was estimated based on the value of the shares at the date of closing.
The escrowed shares have a requisite service period of two years and contain a performance-based vesting condition
(i.e., the achievement of certain revenue targets). We record stock-based compensation expense on a straight-line
basis for each tranche over the requisite service period, as long as the performance-based conditions are considered
probable of being satisfied. As of June 30, 2022, we have not recognized any stock-based compensation expense for
these awards.
We estimate the grant date fair value based on the probability of achievement of the revenue targets at each
reporting period.

The income tax benefit for the year ended June 30, 2022, was primarily attributable to a change in our
assessment of the future realization of certain foreign deferred tax assets, while the income tax benefit for the year
ended June 30, 2021 and the income tax expense for the year ended June 30, 2020 were primarily attributable to an
adjustment to the Company's valuation allowance resulting from a deferred tax liability assumed with the acquisition
of Returnly and to various state income taxes and the tax amortization of certain intangibles, respectively.

We continue to recognize a full valuation allowance against our U.S. federal and state net deferred tax
assets. This determination was based on the assessment of the available positive and negative evidence to estimate
whether sufficient future taxable income will be generated to utilize the existing deferred tax assets. A significant
piece of objective negative evidence evaluated was the cumulative loss incurred by the Company for the years ended
June 30, 2022, 2021, and 2020. The presence of a three-year cumulative loss limits the ability to consider other
subjective evidence, such as our expectations of future taxable income and projections for growth. The domestic
valuation allowance increased by $668.5 million during the year ended June 30, 2022.
As a result of the integration and consolidation of our PayBright business into and with Affirm’s Canadian
business and the expansion of our overall business in Canada, as well as other objectively verifiable positive
evidence that became available during the year ended June 30, 2022, all of which we have concluded is sufficient to
outweigh the existing negative evidence – including the presence of a three-year cumulative loss attributable to the
related foreign jurisdiction, we have determined that it is more likely than not that our foreign deferred tax assets
will be realized and a valuation allowance is not required. Accordingly, the foreign valuation allowance decreased
by $10.1 million during the year ended June 30, 2022.
As of June 30, 2022, we had pretax U.S. federal net operating loss ("NOL") carryforwards of
approximately $3,405.9 million, state NOL carryforwards of $3,590.4 million, and foreign NOL carryforwards of
$65.8 million. If not utilized, certain U.S. federal and state NOL carryforwards will begin to expire in 2029, whereas
others have an unlimited carryforward period, and foreign NOL carryforwards will begin to expire in 2039.
Additionally, as ofJune 30, 2022, we also had U.S. federal and state research and development tax credit
carryforwards of $82.0 million and $37.7 million, respectively. The U.S. federal research and development tax credit
carryforwards will begin to expire in 2041 while the state research and development tax credits may be carried
forward indefinitely. As of June 30, 2022, the Company also had other state tax credit carryforwards of $2.6 million,
which will begin to expire in 2024 if not utilized.
Of the above NOL carryforwards, approximately $42.0 million pretax U.S. federal NOL carryforwards and
$36.4 million state NOL carryforwards are from domestic acquisitions, which may be subject to an annual utilization
limitation under Internal Revenue Code Section 382.

The future utilization of all domestic NOL and tax credit carryforwards may be subject to an annual
limitation, pursuant to Internal Revenue Code Sections 382 and 383 and similar state provisions, due to ownership
changes that may have occurred previously or that could occur in the future. Any limitation may result in the
expiration of all or a portion of the NOL carryforwards before utilization.

18. Net Loss per Share Attributable to Common Stockholders

On January 12, 2021, we amended and restated our certificate of incorporation to effect a reclassification of
each share of our outstanding common stock into ½ share of Class A common stock and ½ share of Class B
common stock, with cash paid for fractional shares. Therefore, we have two classes of common stock: Class A
common stock and Class B common stock. The rights, including the dividends and distributions, of the holders of
our Class A and Class B common stock are identical, except with respect to voting. Additionally, the conversion of
all outstanding shares of redeemable convertible preferred stock into shares of our common stock occurred
immediately prior to the reclassification.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the stockholders and the Board of Directors of Affirm Holdings, Inc.

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Affirm Holdings, Inc. and subsidiaries
(the "Company") as of June 30, 2023 and 2022, the related consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive
income (loss), redeemable convertible preferred stock and stockholders’ equity (deficit), and cash flows for each of
the three years in the period ended June 30, 2023, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial
statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of
the Company as of June 30, 2023 and 2022, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three
years in the period ended June 30, 2023, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United
States of America.
We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight
Board (United States) (PCAOB), the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2023, based
on criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring
Organizations of the Treadway Commission and our report dated August 25, 2023, expressed an unqualified opinion
on the Company's internal control over financial reporting.

Basis for Opinion

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to
express an opinion on the Company's financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm
registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the
U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and
the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we
plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of
material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that
respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and
disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and
significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Critical Audit Matter

The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current-period audit of the
financial statements that was communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that (1)
relates to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially
challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any
way our opinion on the financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit
matter below, providing a separate opinion on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or disclosures to which it
relates.

Allowance for Credit Losses — Refer to Notes 2 and 4 to the financial statements

Critical Audit Matter Description

The allowance for credit losses (ACL) is a material estimate of the Company and as of June 30, 2023, the
total balance was $204.5 million. In estimating the ACL, management utilizes a migration analysis of delinquent and
current loan receivables. The analysis focuses on the pertinent factors underlying the quality of the loan portfolio.
These factors include historical performance, the age of the receivable balance, customer credit-worthiness, changes
in the size and composition of the loan portfolio, delinquency levels, bankruptcy filings, and actual credit loss
experience. Management also incorporates qualitative adjustments to the quantitative model to consider the inherent
uncertainty regarding future economic conditions and consumer loan performance.
80

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF AFFIRM

APPENDIX II

Determining the appropriate level of qualitative adjustments is inherently subjective and relies on
significant judgment. Given the subjective nature and amount of judgment required in developing these estimates,
performing audit procedures to evaluate the reasonableness of the ACL required a high degree of auditor judgment,
an increased extent of audit effort, credit specialists, and the need to involve more experienced audit professionals.

How the Critical Audit Matter Was Addressed in the Audit

Our audit procedures related to the allowance for credit losses included the following procedures, among others:
  • We tested the design and effectiveness of controls over the ACL, including management’s controls over the qualitative adjustments.

  • We tested management’s process for estimating the ACL, which included involving our credit specialists to evaluate the appropriateness of the models and methodologies used including the use of qualitative adjustments.

  • We evaluated the accuracy and completeness of the data used to estimate the allowance for credit losses.

  • We evaluated the qualitative adjustments, including assessing the basis and overall magnitude of the adjustments, obtaining third party macroeconomic data, and evaluating any contradictory evidence.

AFFIRM HOLDINGS, INC. NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. Business Description

Affirm Holdings, Inc. (“Affirm,” the “Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our”), headquartered in San Francisco,
California, provides consumers with a simpler, more transparent, and flexible alternative to traditional payment
options. Our mission is to deliver honest financial products that improve lives. Through our next-generation
commerce platform, agreements with originating banks, and capital markets partners, we enable consumers to
confidently pay for a purchase over time, with terms ranging up to 60 months. When a consumer applies for a loan
through our platform, the loan is underwritten using our proprietary risk model, and once approved, the consumer
selects their preferred repayment option. Loans are directly originated or funded and issued by our originating bank
partners.
Merchants partner with us to transform the consumer shopping experience and to acquire and convert
customers more effectively through our frictionless point-of-sale payment solutions. Consumers get the flexibility to
buy now and make simple regular payments for their purchases and merchants see increased average order value,
repeat purchase rates, and an overall more satisfied customer base. Unlike legacy payment options and our
competitors’ product offerings, which charge deferred or compounding interest and unexpected costs, we disclose
up-front to consumers exactly what they will owe — no hidden fees, no deferred interest, no penalties.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”), as contained in the Financial Accounting Standards Board
(“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”).
Our financial statements have been prepared on a consolidated basis. Under this basis of presentation, our
financial statements consolidate all wholly owned subsidiaries and variable interest entities (“VIEs”), in which we
have a controlling financial interest. These include various business trust entities and limited partnerships
established to enter into warehouse credit agreements with certain lenders for funding debt facilities and certain
asset-backed securitization transactions. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in
consolidation.
Our VIE variable interests arise from contractual, ownership, or other monetary interests in the entity,
which changes with fluctuations in the fair value of the entity’s net assets. We consolidate a VIE when we are
deemed to be the primary beneficiary. We assess whether or not we are the primary beneficiary of a VIE on an
ongoing basis.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires the use of
estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amounts in the consolidated financial statements and
the accompanying notes. Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change relate to
determination of the allowance for credit losses, capitalized internal-use software development costs, valuation
allowance for deferred tax assets, loss on loan purchase commitment, the fair value of servicing assets and liabilities,
discount on self-originated loans, the fair value of assets acquired and any contingent consideration transferred in
business combinations, the evaluation for impairment of intangible assets and goodwill, the fair value of available
for sale debt securities including retained interests in our securitization trusts, the fair value of residual certificates
issued by our securitization trusts held by third parties, and stock-based compensation, including the fair value of
warrants issued to nonemployees. We base our estimates on historical experience, current events, and other factors
89

– II-159 –

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF AFFIRM

APPENDIX II

we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. To the extent that there are material differences between these
estimates and actual results, our financial condition or operating results will be materially affected.
These estimates are based on information available as of the date of the consolidated financial statements;
therefore, actual results could differ materially from those estimates.

Immaterial Correction of Prior Period Amounts

Subsequent to the issuance of our financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the
fiscal year ended June 30, 2021, which was filed with the SEC on September 17, 2021, we identified
understatements in certain prior period amounts related to stock-based compensation.
We measure stock-based compensation based on the fair value of an award at the grant date and recognize
expense over the vesting period of the award based on the estimated portion of the award that is expected to vest. An
incorrect determination of the grant date and service inception dates for certain awards granted prior to our initial
public offering (“IPO”), as well as incorrect treatment of expense recognition for certain terminated employees,
resulted in an understatement of additional paid in capital and misstatement of stock-based compensation expense as
of and for the year ended June 30, 2021 as previously reported.
Accordingly, we have corrected the accompanying financial statements and related footnotes as of and for
the year ended June 30, 2021 from amounts previously reported. We have evaluated the materiality of these
misstatements based on an analysis of quantitative and qualitative factors and concluded they were not material to
the prior period financial statements, individually or in aggregate.
The following tables provide the impact of the correction as of and for the year ended June 30, 2021, as

Segment Reporting

We conduct our operations through a single operating segment and, therefore, one reportable segment.
Operating segments are components of a company for which separate financial information is internally produced
for regular use by the Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) to allocate resources and assess the performance
of the business. Our CODM, the Chief Executive Officer of Affirm Holdings, Inc., uses a variety of measures to
assess the performance of the business; however, detailed profitability information that could be used to allocate
resources and assess the performance of the business is managed and reviewed for the consolidated company as a
whole.

Business Combination

We use the acquisition method of accounting for business combination transactions, and, accordingly,
recognize the fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in our consolidated financial statements. Assets
acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination that arise from contingencies are recognized at fair value.
Transaction costs related to the acquisition of the acquired company are expensed as incurred. The allocation of fair
values may be subject to adjustment after the initial allocation for up to a one-year period as more information
becomes available relative to the fair values as of the acquisition date. The consolidated financial statements include
the results of operations of any acquired company since the acquisition date.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents consist of checking, money market and savings accounts held at financial
institutions and short term highly liquid marketable securities, including money market funds, government and
agency securities, and other corporate securities purchased with an original maturity of three months or less.
91

– II-161 –

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF AFFIRM

APPENDIX II

Restricted Cash

Restricted cash consists primarily of: (i) deposits restricted by standby letters of credit for office leases and
certain commercial agreements; (ii) funds held in accounts as collateral for our originating bank partners; (iii)
servicing funds held in accounts contractually restricted by agreements with warehouse credit facilities,
securitization trusts, and third-party loan owners; and (iv) pledged cash collateral requirements for certain derivative
agreements. Our ability to withdraw funds is restricted by contractual provisions under the applicable agreements.

Securities Available for Sale

We hold certain investments in marketable debt securities and retained interests in our unconsolidated
securitization trusts which are accounted for under ASC Topic 320, “Investments - Debt Securities” (“ASC 320”).
We have classified these investments as available for sale, as defined within ASC 320. These investments are held at
fair value with changes in fair value recorded in unrealized gain (loss) on securities available for sale, net within
other comprehensive income (loss), excluding the portion relating to any credit loss. As of the end of each reporting
period, management reviews each security where the fair value is less than the amortized cost to determine whether
any portion of the decline in fair value is due to a credit loss and/or whether or not we intend to sell or will be
required to sell such security before recovery of its amortized cost basis. The portion of any decline in fair value
which management identifies as a credit loss will be recognized as an allowance for credit losses through other
(expense) income, net. To the extent management intends to sell or may be required to sell a security in an
unrealized loss position, we 1) reverse any previously recorded allowance for credit losses with an offsetting entry to
reduce the amortized cost basis of the security and 2) write-off any remaining portion of the amortized cost basis to
equal its fair value, with this change recorded through other (expense) income, net.
Interest income for available for sale securities is recorded within other (expense) income, net.
Available for sale securities initially purchased with less than 90 days until maturity with quoted transaction
prices in an active market are classified as cash and cash equivalents.
With respect to retained interests in our securitization trusts, we apply the guidance in ASC Topic 325,
“Investments - Other” (“ASC 325”) relating to beneficial interests. Accordingly, we recognize interest income each
period based on the effective interest rate calculated using expected cash flows. Changes in the timing of expected
cash flows are accounted for prospectively through an adjustment to interest income. When fair value is below
amortized cost, we record an allowance for credit losses measured based on the difference between amortized cost
and projected cash flows discounted at the effective interest rate. The allowance for credit losses is capped at the
difference between amortized cost and fair value.

Loans Held for Investment

We either originate loans directly or purchase our loans from our originating bank partners pursuant to the
terms outlined in the respective executed loan sale program agreements between us and our bank partners. Loan
receivables that we have the intent and ability to hold for the foreseeable future or until maturity or payoff are
classified as held for investment and are reported at amortized cost, which includes unpaid principal balances, any
related premiums including fees paid to our originating bank partners and discounts due to loss on loan purchase
commitment for loans with a fair value below the purchase price, where applicable, adjusted for any charge-offs.
The amortized cost is adjusted for the allowance for credit losses within loans held for investment, net.

Loans Held for Sale

We sell certain loans to third-party loan buyers and securitization trusts. A loan is initially classified as held
for sale when the loan is identified as for sale to a third party loan buyer or to be sold to a securitization trust that is
anticipated to be off balance sheet. Loans classified as held for sale are recorded at the lower of amortized cost or
fair value. A loan that is initially designated as held for sale or held for investment may be reclassified when our
intent for that loan changes. When a loan held for investment is reclassified to held for sale and reported at fair
92

– II-162 –

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF AFFIRM

APPENDIX II

value, any allowance for the credit loss related to that loan is released and any fair value adjustment to record the
loan at the lower of amortized cost or fair value is recorded. Our loans designated as held for sale are generally sold
within one to three days of the balance sheet date. Fair value adjustments were not material for loans designated as
held for sale as of June 30, 2023 and June 30, 2022.

Transfers of Financial Assets

We account for loan sales in accordance with ASC 860, “Transfers and Servicing” (“ASC 860”) which
states that a transfer of financial assets, a group of financial assets, or a participating interest in a financial asset is
accounted for as a sale if all of the following conditions are met:
  • a. The financial assets are isolated from the transferor and its consolidated affiliates as well as its creditors;

  • b. The transferee or beneficial interest holders have the right to pledge or exchange the transferred financial assets; and

  • c. The transferor does not maintain effective control of the transferred assets.

When the requirements for sale accounting are met, we record the gain or loss on the sale of a loan at the
sale date in an amount equal to the proceeds received less the carrying value of the loan, adjusted for initial
recognition of assets obtained and liabilities incurred at the date of sale.
Upon the sale of a loan to a third-party loan buyer or unconsolidated securitization trust in which we retain
servicing rights, we may recognize a servicing asset or liability. A servicing asset or liability arises when our
contractual servicing fee with a counterparty differs from the adequate compensation rate that would be required by
a third party to service the same portfolio of assets, as defined by ASC 860. Servicing assets and liabilities are
measured and recorded at fair value and are presented as a component of other assets or accrued expenses and other
liabilities, respectively. The recognition of a servicing asset results in a corresponding increase to the gain on sales
of loans. The recognition of a servicing liability results in a corresponding decrease to gain on sales of loans. The
servicing rights are remeasured at fair value each period, with the subsequent adjustment recognized in servicing
income.
In connection with the sale of a loan to a third-party loan buyer or unconsolidated securitization trust we
may also recognize a recourse liability in accordance with ASC 460, “Guarantees” (“ASC 460”) as in certain
circumstances we may become required to re-purchase loans from third-party investors due to breaches in
representations and warranties. The recognition of a recourse liability results in a corresponding decrease to gain on
sales of loans. The recourse liability is amortized over the loan term and remeasured each period based on the
outstanding loan balance and changes in our expectation of future repurchase obligations. Subsequent
remeasurement of the recourse liability is recognized in other income (expense), net on the consolidated statement of
operations and comprehensive loss.

Allowance for Credit Losses on Loans Held for Investment

The allowance for credit losses on loans held for investment is determined based on management’s current
estimate of expected credit losses over the remaining contractual term, historical credit losses, consumer payment
trends, estimates of recoveries, and future expectations on individual loans as of each balance sheet date. We
immediately recognize an allowance for expected credit losses upon the origination of a loan. Adjustments to the
allowance each period for changes in our estimate of lifetime expected credit losses are recognized in earnings
through the provision for credit losses presented on our consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive
loss. We have made an accounting policy election to not measure an allowance for credit losses for accrued interest
receivables. Previously recognized interest receivable from charged-off loans that is accrued but not collected from
the consumer is reversed.
In estimating the allowance for credit losses, management utilizes a migration analysis of delinquent and
current loan receivables. Migration analysis is a technique used to estimate the likelihood that a loan receivable will
93

– II-163 –

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF AFFIRM

APPENDIX II

progress through various stages of delinquency and to charge-off. The analysis focuses on the pertinent factors
underlying the quality of the loan portfolio. These factors include historical performance, the age of the receivable
balance, seasonality, customer credit-worthiness, changes in the size and composition of the loan portfolio,
delinquency levels, bankruptcy filings and actual credit loss experience. We also take into consideration certain
qualitative factors where we adjust our quantitative baseline using our best judgment to consider the inherent
uncertainty regarding future economic conditions and consumer loan performance. For example, the Company
considers the impact of current economic factors at the reporting date that did not exist over the period from which
historical experience was used. As of June 30, 2023, we have considered the impact of Federal Reserve monetary
policy, labor market trends, inflation, consumer sentiment, and the end of the student loan repayment pause.
When available information confirms that specific loans or portions thereof are uncollectible, identified
amounts are charged against the allowance for credit losses. Loans are charged-off in accordance with our charge-
off policy, as the contractual principal becomes 120 days past due or meets other charge-off policy requirements.
Subsequent recoveries of the unpaid principal balance, if any, are credited to the allowance for credit losses. Refer to
Note 4. Loans Held for Investment and Allowance for Credit Losses for more information.

Accounts Receivable, net

Our accounts receivable consist primarily of amounts due from payment processors, merchant partners,
affiliate network partners and servicing fees due from third-party loan owners. For each of these groups, we evaluate
accounts receivable to determine management’s current estimate of expected credit losses based on historical
experience and future expectations and record an allowance for credit losses. Our allowance for credit losses with
respect to accounts receivable was $12.9 million and $13.9 million as of June 30, 2023 and June 30, 2022,
respectively.

Property, Equipment and Software, net

Property, equipment and software consist of computer and office equipment, capitalized internal-use
developed software and website development costs and leasehold improvements. Property, equipment and software
is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization expenses are
recognized using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, which range from three to
seven years. Leasehold improvements are depreciated over the shorter of the improvement’s estimated useful life or
the remaining lease term.
We capitalize costs to develop internally developed software when preliminary development efforts are
successfully completed, management has authorized and committed project funding, and it is probable that the
project will be completed and the software or website will function and be used as intended. Capitalized internal-use
software costs primarily include salaries and payroll-related costs for employees directly involved in the
development efforts, software licenses acquired and fees paid to external consultants. Such costs are amortized on a
straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of the related asset, which is three years. Costs incurred prior to
meeting these criteria, together with costs incurred for training and maintenance, are expensed as incurred. Costs
incurred for enhancements that are expected to result in additional functionality are capitalized and expensed over
the estimated useful life of the upgrades. Capitalized internally developed software costs are included in property,
equipment and software, and amortization expense is included in technology and data analytics expense in the
consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.
Property, equipment and software is tested for impairment when there is an indication that the carrying
value of the asset group it belongs to may not be recoverable. This would occur if the undiscounted cash flows
estimated to be generated by an asset group are less than its carrying value. When an asset group is determined not
to be recoverable, the impairment is measured based on the excess, if any, of the carrying value of the asset group
over its respective fair value and recorded in the period the determination is made.
94

– II-164 –

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF AFFIRM

APPENDIX II

Goodwill and Intangible Assets

We recognize the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of identifiable net assets acquired at the
acquisition date as goodwill. Goodwill is not amortized but is reviewed for impairment annually and more
frequently if an event occurs or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a
reporting unit below its carrying value. We first perform a qualitative assessment to determine whether it is more
likely than not that the fair value of the reporting unit is less than its carrying value. If the reporting unit does not
pass the qualitative assessment, then the reporting unit’s carrying value is compared to its fair value. If the fair value
of the reporting unit is greater than the reporting unit’s carrying value, then the carrying value of the reporting unit is
deemed to be recoverable. If the carrying value of the reporting unit is greater than the reporting unit’s fair value,
goodwill is impaired and written down to the reporting unit’s fair value.
Identifiable intangible assets include developed technology, merchant relationships, assembled workforce,
and trade names resulting from acquisitions, including asset acquisitions. Acquired intangible assets are recorded at
fair value on the date of acquisition and amortized over their estimated economic lives on a straight-line basis.
Acquired intangible assets are presented net of accumulated amortization on the consolidated balance sheets. We
review the carrying amounts of intangible assets for impairment at the asset group level whenever events or changes
in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the asset group may not be recoverable. We measure the
recoverability of the asset group by comparing its carrying amount to the future undiscounted cash flows we expect
the asset group to generate. If we consider the asset group to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized equals
the amount by which the carrying value of the asset group exceeds its fair value. In addition, we periodically
evaluate the estimated remaining useful lives of long-lived intangible assets to determine whether events or changes
in circumstances warrant a revision to the remaining period of depreciation or amortization.

Leases

We determine whether an arrangement is a lease for accounting purposes at contract inception. For
operating leases, we record a right-of-use asset (“ROU”) within other assets in our consolidated balance sheets,
which represents our right to use an underlying asset for the lease term. A corresponding lease liability, which
represents our obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease, is recorded in accrued expenses and other
liabilities in our consolidated balance sheets.
ROU assets and lease liabilities are recognized at the lease commencement date based on the present value
of lease payments over the lease term. To discount the lease payments, we use an incremental borrowing rate
derived from a corporate yield curve corresponding with the lease term using information available on the
commencement date. We have the option to renew or extend our leases. We include these periods in the lease term
when a decision has been made to exercise the option. Lease expense for operating leases is recognized on a
straight-line basis over the lease term.
We have elected the practical expedient allowing the combination of lease and non-lease components by
class of underlying asset. We have also elected the short-term lease exception and will not recognize right-of-use
assets or lease liabilities for qualifying leases with a term of less than 12 months from lease commencement.

Non-marketable Equity Securities

Non-marketable equity securities which do not have a readily determinable fair value are measured at cost
less impairment, if any, and adjusted for changes resulting from observable price changes in orderly transactions for
an identical or similar investment in the same issuer (the “measurement alternative”).
Unrealized and realized gains and losses on the investment due to impairment or observable price changes
in orderly transaction for an identical or similar investment of the same issuer, if any, are recognized in other
(expense) income, net on our consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss and a new carrying
value is established for the investment upon such recognition.

APPENDIX II

Funding Debt and Debt Issuance Costs

To finance loans we originate directly or that we purchase from our originating bank partners, we borrow
from various lenders through collateralized funding arrangements, which include our warehouse credit facilities
secured by pledged loans and sale and repurchase agreements secured by pledging certain retained interests in our
off balance sheet securitizations. These borrowings are carried at amortized cost. Costs incurred in connection with
borrowings, such as banker fees, commitment fees and legal fees, are classified as deferred debt issuance costs. We
defer these costs and amortize them on a straight-line basis over the expected term of the debt. Interest payments and
amortization of debt issuance costs incurred on funding debt is presented as funding costs in the consolidated
statements of operations and comprehensive loss. Unamortized debt issuance costs are presented as a reduction of
the associated debt.

Notes Issued by Securitization Trusts

In connection with our asset-backed securitization program, we sponsor and establish trusts (deemed to be
VIEs) to ultimately purchase loans facilitated by our platform. Where we consolidate the securitization trusts, the
loans held in the securitization trusts are included in loans held for investment, and the notes sold to third-party
investors are recorded in notes issued by securitization trusts in the consolidated balance sheets. We defer and
amortize note issuance costs, including banker fees, legal fees and other professional service fees, for consolidated
securitization trusts on a straight-line basis over the expected life of the notes. Interest payments and amortization of
note issuance costs incurred is presented as funding costs in the consolidated statements of operations and
comprehensive loss. Unamortized note issuance costs are presented as a reduction of the associated notes.

Income Taxes

Income taxes are accounted for using the asset and liability method, which requires recognition of deferred
tax assets and liabilities for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial
statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax
credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws that are
expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered
or settled. The effect of a change in tax rates on deferred tax assets and liabilities is recognized as an income tax
expense (benefit) in the period that includes the enactment date.
Valuation allowances are provided when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amounts that are
more likely than not expected to be realized based on the weighting of positive and negative evidence. Future
realization of deferred tax assets ultimately depends on the existence of sufficient taxable income of the appropriate
character within the carryback or carryforward periods available under the applicable tax law. We regularly review
the deferred tax assets for recoverability based on historical taxable income, projected future taxable income, the
expected timing of the reversals of existing temporary differences, and tax planning strategies; however, in
evaluating the positive evidence available, expectations of future taxable income and projections for growth are
usually not sufficient to overcome the negative evidence of the presence of a three-year cumulative loss. Should
there be a change in the ability to recover deferred tax assets, our income tax provision would increase or decrease in
the period in which the assessment is changed.
The calculation of our tax liabilities involves dealing with uncertainties in the application of complex
federal, state, and foreign tax laws and regulations, and positions taken in our tax returns may be subject to challenge
by the taxing authorities upon examination. In accordance with applicable accounting guidance, uncertain tax
positions are recognized in the financial statements only when it is more likely than not that the positions will be
sustained upon examination by the tax authorities, assuming full knowledge of the position and all relevant facts.
Interest and penalties, if any, on income tax uncertainties are classified within income tax expense in the income
statement.

APPENDIX II

Fair Value of Assets and Liabilities

ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” (“ASC 820”), defines fair value, establishes a
framework for measuring fair value under U.S. GAAP, and requires certain disclosures about fair value
measurements. In general, fair values of financial instruments are based upon quoted market prices, where available.
If such quoted market prices are not available, fair value is based upon internally developed models that use, as
inputs, observable market-based parameters to the greatest extent possible.
Additionally, ASC 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the use of inputs used in valuation
methodologies into the following three levels:
  • Level 1: Inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices, unadjusted, for identical assets or liabilities in active markets. A quoted price in an active market provides the most reliable evidence of fair value and shall be used to measure fair value whenever available.

  • Level 2: Inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; or inputs to the valuation methodology that are derived principally from or can be corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.

  • Level 3: Inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement. Level 3 assets and liabilities include financial instruments whose value is determined using discounted cash flow methodologies, as well as instruments for which the determination of fair value requires significant management judgment or estimation.

Revenue Recognition

Our revenue consists of five components: merchant network revenue, card network revenue, interest
income, gain on sale of loans and servicing income. Refer to Note 3.Revenue for additional information.

Loss on Loan Purchase Commitment

We purchase certain loans from our originating bank partners that are processed through our platform that
our originating bank partner puts back to us. Under the terms of the agreements with our originating bank partners,
we are generally required to pay the principal amount plus accrued interest for such loans and fees. In certain
instances, our originating bank partners may originate loans with zero or below market interest rates that we are
required to purchase. In these instances, we may be required to purchase the loan for a price in excess of the fair
market value of such loans, which results in a loss. These losses are recognized as loss on loan purchase
commitment in our consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. These costs are incurred on a per
loan basis.
Due to the nature of this arrangement with our originating bank partners, we recognize a net liability for
this commitment when the merchant confirms the transaction. This liability is recorded at fair value, which is
determined by the difference between the estimated fair value of the loan and the anticipated purchase price. Upon
purchase, the liability is included in the amortized cost basis of the purchased loan as a discount, which is amortized
into interest income over the life of the loan.

Customer Referral Partners

From time to time, we make payments to customer referral partners providing lead generation services for
each transaction processed through our technology platform. We first evaluate whether the customer referral partner
is a customer or a vendor. We consider customer referral partners as customers if we determine they are the principal
to eligible merchants in providing the facilitation of credit service. We consider customer referral partners as
vendors if we determine that we are the principal to eligible merchants in providing the facilitation of credit service.

APPENDIX II

Payments made to customer referral partners that are considered to be our customer are recorded as a reduction of
revenue, and payments made to customer referral partners that are not considered to be our customers are recorded
in processing and servicing expense, respectively, over the associated period of benefit within our consolidated
statements of operations and comprehensive loss.

Sales and Marketing Costs

Sales and marketing costs include the expense related to warrants and other share-based payments granted
to our enterprise partners. See Note 6. Balance Sheet Components for more information on these arrangements.
Sales and marketing costs also include salaries and personnel-related costs, as well as costs of marketing and
promotional activities, promotional event programs, sponsorships, and allocated overhead. A portion of these costs
related to general marketing and promotional activities are considered advertising costs within the meaning of ASC
Topic 720, “Other Expenses” (“ASC 720”), and are expensed as incurred. Advertising costs totaled $22.6 million,
$74.0 million and $48.1 million for the years ended June 30, 2023, 2022, and 2021, respectively.

Derivative Instruments

We use derivative financial instruments (“derivatives”) to manage exposure to variable interest rates. Our
primary objective in holding derivatives is to reduce the volatility in cash flows associated with our funding
activities arising from changes in interest rates. We do not employ derivatives for trading or speculative purposes.
We use a combination of interest rate cap agreements and interest rate swaps to manage interest costs and
the risk associated with variable interest rates. ASC Topic 815 “Derivatives and Hedging” (“ASC 815”) requires that
an entity recognize all derivative instruments as either assets or liabilities in the statement of financial position at fair
value. In accordance with ASC 815, we designate certain derivative instruments as cash flow hedges, while others
are not designated as hedges. Certain of our derivative agreements provide for netting arrangements for contracts
that settle with the same counterparty, however, we do not offset assets and liabilities under these arrangements for
financial statement presentation purposes. As such, the fair values are presented gross within other assets and
accrued expenses and other liabilities. Offsetting collateral received by or paid to the counterparty is presented gross
within accrued expenses and other liabilities or other assets, as applicable, on the consolidated balance sheet.

Cash Flow Hedges

We have interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges in order to mitigate our exposure to changes in
interest rates on our variable rate warehouse funding debt. Swaps that qualify as cash flow hedges are documented
and designated as such when we enter into the contracts. In accordance with our risk management policies, we
structure our hedges with terms similar to that of the item being hedged. At inception of the hedge accounting
relationship and on a quarterly basis, we formally assess whether derivatives designated as cash flow hedges are
highly effective in offsetting changes to the forecasted cash flows of the hedged items.
If the cash flow hedges are deemed to be highly effective, the gain or loss on the cash flow hedges are
recorded in other comprehensive income (loss) (“OCI”) and reclassified into earnings when the hedged cash flows
are recognized in funding costs within the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income. The
amount that is reclassified into earnings is presented in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive
loss within funding costs, the same line item in which the hedged transaction is recognized.

Derivatives Not Designated as Hedges

We have interest rate caps and interest rate swaps that are not designated as hedging instruments. We enter
into these contracts to manage interest rate risk. Any changes in the fair value of these financial instruments are
reflected in other (expense) income, net, on the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.

Stock-Based Compensation

We account for stock-based compensation expense in accordance with the fair value recognition and
measurement provisions of U.S. GAAP, which requires compensation cost for the grant date fair value of stock-
based awards to be recognized over the requisite service period. We have elected to estimate the expected forfeiture
rate for service-based awards and only recognize expense for those stock-based awards expected to vest. We
estimate the forfeiture rate based on our historical experience with stock-based awards that are granted and forfeited
prior to vesting.
The fair value of stock-based awards, granted or modified, is determined on the grant date (or modification
or acquisition dates, if applicable) at fair value, using appropriate valuation techniques.

Service-Based Awards

We record stock-based compensation expense for service-based stock options and restricted stock units
(“RSUs”) on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period, which is generally one to four years. The fair
value of each RSU is equal to the closing stock price on the date of grant. The fair value of each option on the date
of grant is determined using the Black Scholes-Merton option pricing model using the single-option award approach.
We estimate volatility using a weighted average of our historical volatility and the historical volatility of selected
comparable publicly-traded companies due to the limited time period of historical market data for our common
stock. The risk-free interest rate is determined using a U.S. Treasury rate for the period that coincides with the
expected term of the award. We use the simplified method to determine an estimate of the expected term of an
employee stock option.
We account for stock-based awards to non-employees, including consultants, in accordance with ASC
Topic 718, “Compensation — Stock Compensation” (“ASC 718”), in which equity-classified awards are measured
at the grant date fair value and recognized as expense in the period and manner as though we had paid cash in
exchange for goods or services instead of granting a stock-based award.

Performance-Based Awards

Prior to the IPO, we granted RSUs that were subject to two vesting conditions: a service-based vesting
condition (i.e., employment over a period of time) and a performance-based vesting condition (i.e., a liquidity event
in the form of either certain change in control transactions or an initial public offering). The performance-based
condition was met upon the IPO. We record stock-based compensation expense for these awards on an accelerated
attribution method over the requisite service period, which is generally four years.
Upon exercise or vesting of a stock-based award, the tax effect of the difference, if any, between the
cumulative compensation cost recognized for financial statement purposes and the deduction for income tax
purposes, will be recognized as an income tax expense or benefit in the consolidated statement of operations.

Market-Based Awards

We have granted stock option awards with service-based, performance-based, and market-based vesting
conditions. We determined the grant date fair value of these awards by utilizing a Monte Carlo simulation model
that incorporates the probability of achievement of the market-based conditions. The Monte Carlo simulation also
incorporates assumptions including expected stock price volatility, expected term, and risk-free interest rates. We
estimated the volatility of common stock on the date of grant based on the weighted-average historical stock price
volatility of comparable publicly-traded companies in our industry group. We estimated the expected term of the
99

– II-169 –

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF AFFIRM

APPENDIX II

award based on various exercise scenarios. The risk-free interest rate was determined using a U.S. Treasury rate for
the period that coincides with the expected term of the award.
We record stock-based compensation expense for market-based equity awards on an accelerated attribution
method over the requisite service period, and only if performance-based conditions are considered probable of being
satisfied.

Foreign Currency

We have wholly-owned foreign subsidiaries that use the local currency of their respective country as their
functional currency. Assets and liabilities of these subsidiaries are translated into U.S. dollars at exchange rates
prevailing at the balance sheet dates. Revenue, costs, and expenses of these subsidiaries are translated into U.S.
dollars using daily exchange rates when incurred. Gains and losses resulting from these translations are recorded as a
component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) (“AOCI”). Gains and losses from the remeasurement
of foreign currency transactions into the functional currency are recognized as other income (expense), net, in our
consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.

Basic and Diluted Net Loss per Common Share

We calculate net income or loss per share using the two-class method. The two-class method requires
income available to common stockholders for the period to be allocated between each class of common stock and
participating securities based upon their respective rights to receive dividends as if all income for the period had
been distributed. Our participating securities include common stock issued upon the early exercise of stock options
and convertible senior notes. We consider any shares issued upon early exercise of stock options, subject to
repurchase, to be participating securities because holders of such shares have non-forfeitable dividend rights in the
event a cash dividend is declared on our common stock. These participating securities do not contractually require
the holders of such shares to participate in our losses. As such, net losses for the years presented were not allocated
to our participating securities.
We calculate basic net loss per share attributable to common stockholders for Class A and Class B common
stock by dividing net loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares
outstanding in each class for the period.
We calculate diluted net loss per share attributable to common stockholders by dividing net loss attributable
to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding in each class, after giving
consideration to the dilutive effect of our stock options, restricted stock units, employee stock purchase plan shares,
convertible debt and common stock warrants that are outstanding during the period. We have generated a net loss in
all periods presented, and therefore, the basic and diluted net loss per share attributable to common stockholders are
the same as the inclusion of the potentially dilutive securities would be anti-dilutive.

Recently Adopted Accounting Standards

Financial Instruments - Credit Losses

In March 2022, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2022-02, “Financial Instruments
— Credit Losses (Topic 326), Troubled Debt Restructurings and Vintage Disclosure” which addresses areas
identified by the FASB as part of its post-implementation review of the current expected credit losses model or
“CECL” previously issued in ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments — Credit Losses (Topic 326)”. The amendments
in this ASU eliminate the accounting guidance for troubled debt restructurings by creditors while enhancing the
disclosure requirements for loan refinancing and restructurings made with borrowers experiencing financial
difficulty. In addition, the amendments require a public business entity to disclose current-period gross write-offs by
year of origination for financing receivables and net investment in leases in the vintage disclosures. For entities that
have adopted ASU 2016-13, ASU 2022-02 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including
interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted if an entity has adopted ASU 2016-13.
100

– II-170 –

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF AFFIRM

APPENDIX II

Amendments in this ASU should be applied prospectively except for the transition method related to the accounting
for troubled debt restructurings in which an entity has the option to apply a modified retrospective transition method
resulting in a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings in the period of adoption. We early adopted the new
standard effective July 1, 2022 on a prospective basis. The adoption of the guidance did not have a material impact
on our financial statements.

Business Combinations

In October 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-08, “Business Combinations (Topic 805): Accounting for
Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers”, which requires contract assets and
contract liabilities, such as deferred revenue, acquired in a business combination to be recognized and measured in
accordance with Topic 606 (Revenue from Contracts with Customers). ASU 2021-08 is expected to reduce diversity
in practice and increase comparability for both the recognition and measurement of acquired revenue contracts with
customers at the date of and after a business combination. The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after
December 15, 2022 and should be applied prospectively to acquisitions occurring on or after the effective date.
Early adoption is permitted, including for interim periods, and is applicable to all business combinations for which
the acquisition date occurs within the beginning of the fiscal year of adoption. We early adopted the new standard
effective January 1, 2023 on a prospective basis. The adoption of the guidance did not have a material impact on our
financial statements.

Reference Rate Reform

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, “Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the
Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting”. Subject to meeting certain criteria, the new guidance
provides optional expedients and exceptions to applying contract modification accounting under existing U.S.
GAAP, to address the expected phase out of the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”). In January 2021, the
FASB also issued ASU 2021-01, “Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Scope”, which provides additional optional
expedients and exceptions applicable to all entities that have derivative instruments that use an interest rate for
margining, discounting, or contract price alignment that is modified as a result of reference rate reform. In December
2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-06, “Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Deferral of the Sunset Date of Topic
848”, to extend the temporary accounting rules under Topic 848 from December 31, 2022 to December 31, 2024.
These ASUs are effective for all entities upon their respective issuance dates through December 31, 2024. The
adoption of the guidance did not have a material impact on our financial statements.

Merchant Network Revenue — Revenue from Contracts with Customers

Merchant network revenue consists of merchant fees. Merchant partners (or integrated merchants) are
generally charged a fee based on GMV processed through the Affirm platform. The fees vary depending on the
individual arrangement between us and each merchant and on the terms of the product offering. The fee is
101

– II-171 –

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF AFFIRM

APPENDIX II

recognized at the point in time the merchant successfully confirms the transaction, which is when the terms of the
executed merchant agreement are fulfilled.
Our contracts with merchants are defined at the transaction level and do not extend beyond the service
already provided (i.e., each transaction represents a separate contract). The fees collected from merchants for each
transaction are determined as a percentage of the value of the goods purchased by the consumer from merchants and
consider a number of factors including the end consumer’s credit risk and financing term. We do not have any
capitalized contract costs, and do not carry any material contract balances.
Our service comprises a single performance obligation to merchants to facilitate transactions with
consumers. From time to time, we offer merchants incentives to promote our platform to their customers, such as fee
reductions or rebates. These amounts are recorded as a reduction to merchant network revenue.
We may originate certain loans via our wholly-owned subsidiaries, with zero or below market interest rates.
In these instances, the par value of the loans originated is in excess of the fair market value of such loans, resulting
in a loss on loan origination, which we record as a reduction to network revenue. In certain cases, the losses incurred
on loans originated for a merchant may exceed the total network revenue earned on those loans. We record the
excess loss amounts as a sales and marketing expense.
On May 5, 2021, our largest merchant partner at the time, Peloton, announced a voluntary recall of two of
its products following a report by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission released on April 17, 2021.
Pursuant to ASC 606, we revised our estimate of the variable consideration associated with revenue earned on the
facilitation of transactions related to the recalled products and recorded a reduction in revenue of $5.4 million during
the year ended June 30, 2021.
A portion of merchant network revenue relates to affiliate network revenue, which is generated when a user
makes a purchase on a merchant’s website after being directed from an advertisement on Affirm’s website or mobile
application. We earn a fixed placement fee and/or commission as a percentage of the associated sale. Revenue is
recognized at the point in time when the performance obligation has been fulfilled, which is when the sale occurs.
For the years ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, there were no merchants that exceeded 10% of total revenue.
For the year ended 2021, approximately 20% of total revenue was driven by one merchant.

Card Network Revenue — Revenue from Contracts with Customers

We have agreements with card-issuing partners to facilitate the issuance of physical and virtual debit cards
to be used by consumers at checkout. Consumers can apply at Affirm.com or via the Affirm app and, upon approval,
receive a single-use virtual card to use digitally online or in-store. The debit card is funded at the time a transaction
is authorized using cash held by the card-issuing partner in a reserve fund. Eligible consumers can also use a debit
card issued by a card-issuing partner to pay in full, debited from their bank account, or pay later, by using a unique
post-purchase feature that allows them to instantly convert any eligible debit transaction into an installment loan.
Where applicable, our originating bank partner, or wholly-owned subsidiaries, then originates a loan to the consumer
after the transaction is confirmed by the merchant. The merchant is charged interchange fees for each successful
debit card transaction, and a portion of this revenue is shared with us by our card-issuing partners.
Merchants may also elect to utilize our agreement with card-issuing partners as a means of integrating
Affirm services. Similarly, for these arrangements with integrated merchants, the merchant is charged interchange
fees for each successful debit card transaction and a portion of this revenue is shared with us. From time to time, we
offer certain integrated merchants promotional incentives to promote our platform to their customers, such as rebates
of interchange fees incurred by the merchant. These amounts are recorded as a reduction of card network revenue.
Our contracts with our card-issuing partners are defined at the transaction level and do not extend beyond
the service already provided. The revenue collected from card-issuing partners for each transaction are determined
as a percentage of the interchange fees charged on transactions facilitated on the payment processor network, and
102

– II-172 –

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF AFFIRM

APPENDIX II

revenue is recognized at the point in time the transaction is completed successfully. The amounts collected are
presented in revenue, net of associated transaction-related processing fees paid to our card-issuing partners. We have
concluded that the revenue collected does not give rise to a future material right because the pricing of each
transaction does not depend on the volume of prior successful transactions. We do not have any capitalized contract
costs, and do not carry any material contract balances.
Our service comprises a single performance obligation to the card-issuing partner to facilitate transactions
with consumers.
A portion of card network revenue relates to incentive payments from card network partners, which we are
eligible to receive for reaching certain cumulative volume targets on program cards issued by the issuer processors.
We earn incentive revenue as a percentage of each associated transaction and estimate the applicable percentage
based on observed cumulative volume on program cards. Revenue is recognized at the point in time when the
performance obligation has been fulfilled, which is when the transaction is completed successfully.

We accrue interest income using the effective interest method, which includes the amortization of any
discounts or premiums on loan receivables created upon the purchase of a loan from our originating bank partners or
upon the origination of a loan. Interest income on a loan is accrued daily, based on the finance charge disclosed to
the consumer, over the term of the loan based upon the principal outstanding. The accrual of interest on a loan is
suspended if a formal dispute with the consumer involving either Affirm or the merchant of record is opened, or a
loan is 120 days past due. Upon the resolution of a dispute with the consumer, the accrual of interest is resumed, and
any interest that would have been earned during the disputed period is retroactively accrued. As of June 30, 2023,
June 30, 2022, and June 30, 2021, the balance of loans held for investment on non-accrual status was $1.8 million,
$1.7 million, and $1.1 million, respectively.
The account is charged-off in the period if the account becomes 120 days past due or meets other charge-
off policy requirements. Past due status is based on the contractual terms of the loans. Previously recognized interest
receivable from charged-off loans that is accrued but not collected from the consumer is reversed.

Gain on Sales of Loans

We sell certain loans we originate or purchase from our originating bank partners directly to third-party
investors or to securitizations. We recognize a gain or loss on sale of loans sold to third parties or to unconsolidated
securitizations as the difference between the proceeds received and the carrying value of the loan, adjusted for the
initial recognition of any assets or liabilities incurred upon sale, which generally include a net servicing asset or
liability in connection with our ongoing obligation to continue to service the loans and a recourse liability based on
our estimate of future losses in connection with our obligation to repurchase loans that do not meet certain
contractual requirements and such information about the loan was unknown at the time of sale.

APPENDIX II

Servicing Income

Servicing income includes contractual fees specified in our servicing agreements with third-party loan
owners and unconsolidated securitizations that are earned from providing professional services to manage loan
portfolios on their behalf. The servicing fee is calculated on a daily basis by multiplying a set fee percentage (as
outlined in the executed agreements with third-party loan owners) by the outstanding loan principal balance. We
recognize this revenue on a monthly basis. Servicing income also includes fair value adjustments for servicing assets
and servicing liabilities.

Loans held for investment includes loans originated through our originating bank partners and directly
originated loans. The majority of the loans that are underwritten using our technology platform and originated by our
originating bank partners are later purchased by us. We purchased loans from our originating bank partners in the
amount of $16.2 billion, $12.1 billion, and $7.9 billion for the years ended June 30, 2023, 2022, and 2021,
respectively.We directly originated $3.7 billion, $3.3 billion, and $0.6 billion of loans for the years ended June 30,
2023, 2022, and 2021, respectively.
These loans have a variety of lending terms as well as maturities ranging from one to sixty months. Given
that our loan portfolio focuses on one product segment, point-of-sale unsecured installment loans, we generally
evaluate the entire portfolio as a single homogeneous loan portfolio and make merchant or program specific
adjustments as necessary.
We closely monitor credit quality for our loan receivables to manage and evaluate our related exposure to
credit risk. Credit risk management begins with initial underwriting, where loan applications are assessed against the
credit underwriting policy and procedures for our directly originated loans and originating bank partner loans, and
continues through to full repayment of a loan. To assess a consumer who requests a loan, we use, among other
indicators, internally developed risk models using detailed information from external sources, such as credit bureaus
where available, and internal historical experience, including the consumer’s prior repayment history on our
platform as well as other measures. We combine these factors to establish a proprietary score as a credit quality
indicator.
Our proprietary score (“ITACs”) is assigned to most loans facilitated through our technology platform,
ranging from zero to 100, with 100 representing the highest credit quality and therefore the lowest likelihood of loss.
The ITACs model analyzes the characteristics of a consumer's attributes that are shown to be predictive of both
willingness and ability to repay including, but not limited to: basic features of a consumer's credit profile, a
consumer's prior repayment performance with other creditors, current credit utilization, and legal and policy
changes. When a consumer passes both fraud and credit policy checks, the application is assigned an ITACs score.
ITACs is also used for portfolio performance monitoring. Our credit risk team closely tracks the distribution of
ITACs at the portfolio level, as well as ITACs at the individual loan level to monitor for signs of a changing credit
profile within the portfolio. Repayment performance within each ITACs band is also monitored to support both the

We maintain an allowance for credit losses at a level sufficient to absorb expected credit losses based on
evaluating known and inherent risks in our loan portfolio. The allowance for credit losses is determined based on our
current estimate of expected credit losses over the remaining contractual term, historical credit losses, consumer
payment trends, estimates of recoveries, and future expectations as of each balance sheet date. Adjustments to the
allowance each period for changes in our estimate of lifetime expected credit losses are recognized in earnings
through the provision for credit losses presented on our consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive
loss. When available information confirms that specific loans or portions thereof are uncollectible, identified
amounts are charged against the allowance for credit losses. Loans are charged-off in accordance with our charge-
off policy, as the contractual principal becomes 120 days past due. Subsequent recoveries of the unpaid principal
balance, if any, are credited to the allowance for credit losses.

Butter Holdings Ltd

On February 1, 2023, we completed the closing of the transaction contemplated by a share purchase
agreement entered into with certain sellers to acquire the entire issued share capital of Butter Holdings Ltd.
(“Butter”), a buy now, pay later company based in the United Kingdom. The purchase price was comprised of (i)
$14.9 million in cash, subject to adjustments in accordance with the purchase agreement, and (ii) $1.5 million

Other acquisitions

Fast

On April 19, 2022, Affirm completed the closing of the transaction contemplated by a Release and Waiver
Agreement entered into with Fast AF, Inc. (“Fast”) relating to the hiring of certain of its employees or service
providers and an option to acquire certain of its assets. The purchase price was comprised of (i) $10.0 million in cash
and (ii) forgiveness of a $15.0 million senior secured note issued to Fast in April 2022 prior to the closing.
The acquisition was accounted for as an asset acquisition in accordance with ASC 805 since the assets
acquired do not meet the definition of a business. The acquired identifiable intangible assets have been recorded at a
total cost of $25.4 million, which includes approximately $0.4 million of transaction costs associated with the
acquisition. The excess of the total cost of the assets over their total fair value was allocated between the assets on
the basis of their relative fair values. The fair values of the intangible assets were determined by applying the
replacement cost method. The fair value measurements are based on significant unobservable inputs, including
management estimates and assumptions, and thus represent Level 3 measurements.

Commercial Agreement Assets

During the year ended June 30, 2022, we granted warrants in connection with our commercial agreements
with certain subsidiaries of Amazon.com, Inc. (“Amazon”). The warrants were granted in exchange for certain
performance provisions and the benefit of acquiring new users. We recognized an asset of $133.5 million associated
with the portion of the warrants that were fully vested upon grant. The asset was valued based on the fair value of
the warrants and represents the probable future economic benefit to be realized over the approximate 3.2 year term
of the commercial agreement at the grant date. For the years ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, we recognized
amortization expense of $41.4 million and $26.3 million, respectively, in our consolidated statements of operations
and comprehensive loss as a component of sales and marketing expense. Refer to Note 14. Stockholders’ Equity for
further discussion of the warrants.
During the year ended June 30, 2021, we recognized an asset in connection with a commercial agreement
with Shopify Inc. (“Shopify”), in which we granted warrants in exchange for the opportunity to acquire new
merchant partners. This asset represents the probable future economic benefit to be realized over the expected
benefit period and is valued based on the fair value of the warrants on the grant date. We recognized an asset of
$270.6 million associated with the fair value of the warrants, which were fully vested as of June 30, 2023. The
expected benefit period of the asset was initially estimated to be four years, and the remaining useful life of the asset
is reevaluated each reporting period. During fiscal year 2022, the remaining expected benefit period was extended
by two years upon the execution of an amendment to the commercial agreement with Shopify which extended the
term of the agreement. We recorded amortization expense related to the commercial agreement asset of $35.8
million, $62.2 million, and $64.9 million for the years ended June 30, 2023,2022, and 2021, respectively, in our
consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss as a component of sales and marketing expense.
During the year ended June 30, 2021, we recognized an asset in connection with a commercial agreement
with an enterprise partner, in which we granted stock appreciation rights in exchange for the benefit of acquiring
access to the partner's consumers. This asset represents the probable future economic benefit to be realized over the
three-year expected benefit period and is valued based on the fair value of the stock appreciation rights on the grant
date. We initially recognized an asset of $25.9 million associated with the fair value of the stock appreciation rights.
We recorded amortization expense related to the asset of $8.3 million, $8.1 million, and $4.3 million for the years
ended June 30, 2023, 2022, and 2021, respectively, in our consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive

7. Leases

We lease facilities under operating leases with various expiration dates through 2030. We have the option
to renew or extend our leases. Certain lease agreements include the option to terminate the lease with prior written
notice ranging from 9 months to one year. As of June 30, 2023, we have not considered such provisions in the
determination of the lease term, as it is not reasonably certain these options will be exercised. Leases have remaining
terms that range from less than one year to seven years.
Several leases require us to obtain standby letters of credit, naming the lessor as a beneficiary. These letters
of credit act as security for the faithful performance by us of all terms, covenants and conditions of the lease
agreement. The cash collateral and deposits for the letters of credit have been recognized as restricted cash in the
consolidated balance sheets and totaled $9.7 million as of both June 30, 2023 and June 30, 2022.
During the years ended June 30, 2023 and June 30, 2021, we decided to sublease a portion of our leased
office space in San Francisco. As a result, we recorded a lease impairment charge of $1.2 million and $11.5 million,
respectively related to several of our operating lease ROU assets, included in general and administrative expense on
our consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. For the year ended June 30, 2022, the impairment
expense related to leases was not material to our consolidated statements of operations.

8. Commitments and Contingencies

Repurchase Obligation

Under the normal terms of our whole loans sales to third-party investors, we may become obligated to
repurchase loans from investors in certain instances where a breach in representation and warranties is identified.
Generally, a breach in representation and warranties could occur where a loan has been identified as subject to
verified or suspected fraud, or in cases where a loan was serviced or originated in violation of Affirm’s guidelines.
We would only experience a loss if the contractual repurchase price of the loan exceeds the fair value on the
repurchase date. This amount was not material as of June 30, 2023.

Legal Proceedings

From time to time, we are subject to legal proceedings and claims in the ordinary course of business. The
results of such matters often cannot be predicted with certainty. In accordance with applicable accounting guidance,

APPENDIX II

we establish an accrued liability for legal proceedings and claims when those matters present loss contingencies
which are both probable and reasonably estimable.

Toole v. Affirm Holdings, Inc.

On February 28, 2022, plaintiff Jeffrey Toole filed a putative class action against Affirm and Max Levchin
in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California (the “Toole action”). The Toole action alleged that
Affirm violated Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Exchange Act, and Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder by issuing
and then subsequently deleting a tweet from its official Twitter account on February 10, 2022, which omitted full
details of Affirm’s second quarter fiscal 2022 financial results. Plaintiff sought class certification, unspecified
compensatory and punitive damages, and costs and expenses. On September 28, 2022, the Court granted Affirm’s
motion to dismiss for failure to state a claim with leave to amend within 21 days. No amended complaint was filed
by the deadline. On October 20, 2022, the Court dismissed the putative class action and entered judgment in
Affirm’s favor.

Vallieres v Levchin, et al.

On April 25, 2022, plaintiff Michael Vallieres filed a shareholder derivative lawsuit in the U.S. District
Court for the Northern District of California (the “Vallieres action”) against Affirm, as a nominal defendant, and
certain of Affirm’s current officers and directors as defendants based on allegations substantially similar to those in
the Toole action. The Vallieres complaint purported to assert claims on Affirm's behalf for breach of fiduciary duty,
gross mismanagement, abuse of control, unjust enrichment, and contribution under the federal securities laws, and
sought corporate reforms, unspecified damages and restitution, and fees and costs. On January 12, 2023, the Court
dismissed the derivative action without prejudice.

Williams v. Levchin, et al.

On September 16, 2022, plaintiff Ron Williams filed a shareholder derivative lawsuit in the U.S. District
Court for the Northern District of California (the “Williams action”) against Affirm, as a nominal defendant, and
certain of Affirm’s current and former officers and directors as defendants based on allegations substantially similar
to those in the Toole action and Vallieres action. The Williams complaint purported to assert six causes of action on
Affirm's behalf—violation of Section 14(a) of the Exchange Act, breach of fiduciary duty, unjust enrichment, abuse
of control, gross mismanagement, and waste of corporate assets. The plaintiff in the Williams action also alleged a
cause of action against defendant Levchin for contribution under 10(b) and 21D of the Exchange Act. The Williams
complaint sought corporate reforms, unspecified damages and restitution, and fees and costs. On December 22,
2022, the Court dismissed the derivative action without prejudice.

Kusnier v. Affirm Holdings, Inc.

On December 8, 2022, plaintiff Mark Kusnier filed a putative class action lawsuit against Affirm, Max
Levchin, and Michael Linford in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California (the “Kusnier
action”). Plaintiff’s amended complaint filed on May 5, 2023 alleges that defendants: (i) caused Affirm to make
materially false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that Affirm’s BNPL service facilitated
excessive consumer debt (including with respect to certain for-profit educational institutions), regulatory arbitrage,
and data harvesting; (ii) made false and/or misleading statements about certain public regulatory actions; and (iii)
made false and/or misleading statements about whether Affirm’s business model was vulnerable to interest rate
changes. In light of the above, plaintiff asserts that Affirm violated Section 10(b) of the Exchange Act and Rule
10b-5 promulgated thereunder, and that Levchin and Linford violated Section 20(a) of the Exchange Act. Plaintiff
seeks class certification, unspecified compensatory and punitive damages, and costs and expenses.

Quiroga v. Levchin, et al.

On March 29, 2023, plaintiff John Quiroga filed a shareholder derivative lawsuit in the U.S. District Court
for the Northern District of California (the “Quiroga action”) against Affirm, as a nominal defendant, and certain of

APPENDIX II

Affirm's current officers and directors as defendants based on allegations substantially similar to those in the Kusnier
action. The Quiroga complaint purports to assert claims on Affirm's behalf for contribution under the federal
securities laws, breaches of fiduciary duty, unjust enrichment, and waste of corporate assets, and seeks corporate
reforms, unspecified damages and restitution, and fees and costs. On May 1, 2023, the action was stayed by
agreement of the parties. The stay can be lifted at the request of either party or upon certain conditions relating to the
resolution of the Kusnier action.

Jeffries v. Levchin, et al.

On May 24, 2023, plaintiff Sabrina Jeffries filed a shareholder derivative lawsuit in the U.S. District Court
for the Northern District of California against Affirm, as a nominal defendant, and certain of Affirm's current
officers and directors as defendants based on allegations substantially similar to those in the Kusnier and Quiroga
actions. The Jeffries complaint purports to assert claims on Affirm's behalf for breach of fiduciary duties, making
false statements under federal securities law, unjust enrichment, waste of corporate assets, and aiding and abetting
breach of fiduciary duties, and seeks unspecified damages, equitable relief, and fees and costs. On August 15, 2023,
the action was stayed by agreement of the parties. The stay can be lifted at the request of either party or upon certain
conditions relating to the resolution of the Kusnier action.
We have determined, based on current knowledge, that the aggregate amount or range of losses that are
estimable with respect to our legal proceedings, including the matters described above, would not have a material
adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows. Amounts accrued as of
June 30, 2023 and June 30, 2022 were not material. The ultimate outcome of legal proceedings involves judgments,
estimates and inherent uncertainties, and cannot be predicted with certainty.

Purchase Commitments

During the year ended June 30, 2023, we entered into non-cancelable purchase obligations with our third-
party cloud computing web services provider, which included annual purchase commitments for the period from
March 2023 through February 2030, and an additional aggregate purchase commitment of $650.0 million during
such period. For the years ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, we had remaining purchase commitments of $659.2

APPENDIX II

Secured Borrowing Facilities

U.S.

Through trusts, we entered into warehouse credit facilities with certain lenders to finance the purchase and
origination of our loans. Each trust entered into a credit agreement and security agreement with a third-party as
administrative agent and a national banking association as collateral trustee and paying agent. Borrowings under
these agreements are referred to as funding debt and proceeds from the borrowings can only be used for the purposes
of facilitating loan funding and origination, with advance rates ranging from 82% to 86% of the total collateralized
balance. These warehouse credit facility trusts, which have been classified as VIEs, are bankruptcy-remote special-
purpose vehicles in which creditors do not have recourse against the general credit of Affirm. These revolving
facilities mature between fiscal years 2024 and 2029, and subject to covenant compliance, generally permit
borrowings up to 12 months prior to the final maturity date of each respective facility. As of June 30, 2023, the
aggregate commitment amount of these facilities was $3.3 billion on a revolving basis, of which $1.4 billion was
drawn, with $1.9 billion remaining available. Some of the loans originated by us or purchased from the originating
bank partners are pledged as collateral for borrowings in our facilities. The unpaid principal balance of these loans
totaled $1.7 billion and $0.5 billion as of June 30, 2023 and June 30, 2022, respectively.
Borrowings under these warehouse credit facilities bear interest at an annual benchmark rate of Secured
Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) or an alternative commercial paper rate (which is the per annum rate equivalent
to the weighted-average of the per annum rates at which all commercial paper notes were issued by certain lenders to
fund advances or maintain loans), plus a spread ranging from 1.75% to 2.20%. Interest is payable monthly. In
addition, these agreements require payment of a monthly unused commitment fee ranging from 0.00% to 0.75% per
annum on the undrawn portion available.
These agreements contain certain customary negative covenants and financial covenants including
maintaining certain levels of minimum liquidity, maximum leverage, and minimum tangible net worth. As of
June 30, 2023, we were in compliance with all applicable covenants in the agreements.

International

Additionally, we have various credit facilities utilized to finance the origination of loan receivables in
Canada. Similar to our warehouse credit facilities, borrowings under these agreements are referred to as funding
debt, and proceeds from the borrowings may only be used for the purposes of facilitating loan funding and
origination. These facilities are secured by Canadian loan receivables pledged to the respective facility as collateral,
mature between fiscal years 2025 and 2029, and bear interest based on benchmark rates plus a spread ranging from
1.25% to 4.25%.
As of June 30, 2023, the aggregate commitment amount of these facilities was $548.4 million on a
revolving basis, of which $349.6 million was drawn, with $198.8 million remaining available. The unpaid principal
balance of loans pledged to these facilities totaled $412.8 million and $210.1 million as of June 30, 2023 and
June 30, 2022, respectively.
These agreements contain certain customary negative covenants and financial covenants including
maintaining certain levels of minimum liquidity, maximum leverage, and minimum tangible net worth at the Affirm
Canada subsidiary level or the Affirm Holdings level. As of June 30, 2023, we were in compliance with all
applicable covenants in the agreements.

Sales and Repurchase Agreements

We entered into certain sale and repurchase agreements pursuant to our retained interests in our off-balance
sheet securitizations where we have sold these securities to a counterparty with an obligation to repurchase at a
future date and price. The repurchase agreements each have an initial term of three months and subject to mutual
agreement by Affirm and the counterparty, we may enter into one or more repurchase date extensions, each for an
116

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF AFFIRM

APPENDIX II

additional three-month term at market interest rates on such extension date. As of June 30, 2023, the interest rates
were 7.23% for both the senior pledged securities and the residual certificate pledged securities. We had $11.0
million and $27.0 million in debt outstanding under our repurchase agreements disclosed within funding debt on the
consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 2023 and June 30, 2022, respectively. The debt will be amortized through
regular principal and interest payments on the pledged securities. The outstanding debt relates to $18.9 million and
$32.4 million in pledged securities disclosed within securities available for sale at fair value on the consolidated
balance sheets as of June 30, 2023 and June 30, 2022, respectively.

Convertible Senior Notes

On November 23, 2021, we issued $1,725 million in aggregate principal amount of 0% convertible senior
notes due 2026 (the “2026 Notes”) in a private placement to qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A
under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The total net proceeds from this offering, after deducting debt
issuance costs, were approximately $1,704 million. The 2026 Notes represent senior unsecured obligations of the
Company. The 2026 Notes do not bear interest except in special circumstances described below, and the principal
amount of the 2026 Notes does not accrete. The 2026 Notes mature on November 15, 2026.
Each $1,000 of principal of the 2026 Notes will initially be convertible into 4.6371 shares of our common
stock, which is equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $215.65 per share, subject to adjustment
upon the occurrence of certain specified events set forth in the indenture governing the 2026 Notes (the
“Indenture”). Holders of the 2026 Notes may convert their 2026 Notes at their option at any time on or after
August 15, 2026 until close of business on the second scheduled trading day immediately preceding the maturity
date of November 15, 2026. Further, holders of the 2026 Notes may convert all or any portion of their 2026 Notes at
their option prior to the close of business on the business day immediately preceding August 15, 2026, only under
the following circumstances:
1) during any calendar quarter commencing after March 31, 2022 (and only during such calendar quarter), if
the last reported sale price of the Class A common stock for at least 20 trading days (whether or not
consecutive) during a period of 30 consecutive trading days ending on, and including, the last trading day of
the immediately preceding calendar quarter is greater than or equal to 130% of the conversion price on each
applicable trading day;
2) during the five business day period after any five consecutive trading day period (the measurement
period) in which the trading price (as defined in the indenture governing the 2026 Notes) per $1,000
principal amount of the 2026 Notes for each trading day of the measurement period was less than 98% of the
product of the last reported sale price of the Company’s Class A common stock and the conversion rate on
each such trading day;
3) if the Company calls any or all of the notes for redemption, at any time prior to the close of business on
the scheduled trading day immediately preceding the redemption date; or
4) upon the occurrence of certain specified corporate events.
Upon conversion of the 2026 Notes, the Company will pay or deliver, as the case may be, cash, shares of
our common stock or a combination of cash and shares of our common stock, at the Company’s election. If we
satisfy our conversion obligation solely in cash or through payment and delivery, as the case may be, of a
combination of cash and shares of our common stock, the amount of cash and shares of common stock, if any, due
upon conversion will be based on a daily conversion value (as set forth in the Indenture) calculated on a
proportionate basis for each trading day in a 40 trading day observation period.
No sinking fund is provided for the 2026 Notes. We may not redeem the notes prior to November 20, 2024.
We may redeem for cash all or part of the notes on or after November 20, 2024 if the last reported sale price of our
Class A common stock has been at least 130% of the conversion price then in effect for at least 20 trading days
(whether or not consecutive) during any 30 consecutive trading day period (including the last trading day of such

period) ending on, and including, the trading day immediately preceding the date on which we provide notice of
redemption at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the notes to be redeemed, plus accrued
and unpaid special interest, if any.
If a fundamental change (as defined in the Indenture) occurs prior to the maturity date, holders of the 2026
Notes may require us to repurchase all or a portion of their notes for cash at a repurchase price equal to 100% of the
principal amount of the 2026 Notes, plus any accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the repurchase date. In
addition, if specific corporate events occur prior to the maturity date of the 2026 Notes, we will be required to
increase the conversion rate for holders who elect to convert their 2026 Notes in connection with such corporate
events.
During the year ended June 30, 2023, we entered into a series of privately negotiated transactions with
certain holders of our 2026 Notes, pursuant to which we paid an aggregate amount of $206.6 million in cash for the
repurchase of $299.1 million aggregate principal amount of our 2026 Notes (the “2026 Note Repurchases”). The
carrying amount of the extinguished 2026 Notes was approximately $296.4 million resulting in a $89.8 million gain
on early extinguishment of debt, which is reported as a component of other (expense) income, net within our
consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive loss. In exchange for paying cash pursuant to the 2026
Note Repurchases, we received and canceled the repurchased 2026 Notes.
On June 7, 2023, the Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to $800 million in aggregate
principal amount of the 2026 Notes. Note repurchases may be made from time to time through December 31, 2023
in privately negotiated transactions. Repurchases are subject to available liquidity, general market and economic
conditions, alternate uses for the capital, and other factors, and there is no minimum principal amount of 2026 Notes
that the Company is obligated to repurchase. We have not executed any repurchases under this authorization to date.
The convertible senior notes outstanding as of June 30, 2023 consisted of the following (in thousands):
Principal Amount Unamortized Discount
and Issuance Cost
Net Carrying Amount
Convertible senior notes $
1,425,900
(11,692) $

The 2026 Notes do not bear interest. We recognized $3.9 million and $2.4 million during the years ended
June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, of interest expense related to the amortization of debt discount and issuance
costs in the consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive loss within other (expense) income, net. As of
June 30, 2023, the remaining life of the 2026 Notes is approximately 41 months.

Revolving Credit Facility

On February 4, 2022, we entered into a revolving credit agreement with a syndicate of commercial banks for a
$165.0 million unsecured revolving credit facility. On May 16, 2022, we increased unsecured revolving
commitments under the facility to $205.0 million. This facility bears interest at a rate equal to, at our option, either
(a) a Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) rate determined by reference to the forward-looking term SOFR
rate for the interest period, plus an applicable margin of 1.85% per annum or (b) a base rate determined by reference
to the highest of (i) the federal funds rate plus 0.50% per annum, (ii) the rate last quoted by the Wall Street Journal
as the U.S. prime rate and (iii) the one-month forward-looking term SOFR rate plus 1.00% per annum, in each case,
plus an applicable margin of 0.85% per annum. The revolving credit agreement has a final maturity date of
February 4, 2025. The facility contains certain covenants and restrictions, including certain financial maintenance
covenants, and requires payment of a monthly unused commitment fee of 0.20% per annum on the undrawn balance
available. There are no borrowings outstanding under the facility as of June 30, 2023.

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF AFFIRM

APPENDIX II

10. Securitization and Variable Interest Entities

Consolidated VIEs

Warehouse Credit Facilities

We established certain entities, deemed to be VIEs, to enter into warehouse credit facilities for the purpose
of purchasing loans from our originating bank partners and funding directly originated loans. Refer to Note 9. Debt
for additional information. The creditors of the VIEs have no recourse to the general credit of Affirm and the
liabilities of the VIEs can only be settled by the respective VIEs’ assets; however, as the servicer of the loans
pledged to our warehouse funding facilities, we have the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact
the VIEs' economic performance. In addition, we retain significant economic exposure to the pledged loans and
therefore, we are the primary beneficiary.

Securitizations

In connection with our asset-backed securitization program, we sponsor and establish trusts (deemed to be
VIEs) to ultimately purchase loans facilitated by our platform. Securities issued from our asset-backed
securitizations are senior or subordinated, based on the waterfall criteria of loan payments to each security class. The
subordinated residual interests issued from these transactions are first to absorb credit losses in accordance with the
waterfall criteria. For these VIEs, the creditors have no recourse to the general credit of Affirm and the liabilities of
the VIEs can only be settled by the respective VIEs’ assets. Additionally, the assets of the VIEs can be used only to
settle obligations of the VIEs.
We consolidate securitization VIEs when we are deemed to be the primary beneficiary and therefore have
the power to direct the activities that most significantly affect the VIEs’ economic performance and a variable
interest that could potentially be significant to the VIE. Through our role as the servicer, we have the power to direct
the activities that most significantly affect the VIEs’ economic performance. In evaluating whether we have a
variable interest that could potentially be significant to the VIE, we consider our retained interests. We also earn a
servicing fee which has a senior distribution priority in the payment waterfall.
In evaluating whether we are the primary beneficiary, management considers both qualitative and
quantitative factors regarding the nature, size and form of our involvement with the VIEs. Management assesses
whether we are the primary beneficiary of the VIEs on an ongoing basis.
Where we consolidate the securitization trusts, the loans held in the securitization trusts are included in
loans held for investment, and the notes sold to third-party investors are recorded in notes issued by securitization
trusts in the consolidated balance sheets.
For each securitization, the residual certificates represent the right to receive excess cash on the loans each
collection period after all fees and required distributions have been made to the note holders on the related payment
date. For the majority of consolidated securitization VIEs, we retain 100% of the residual certificates issued by the
securitization trust. Any portion of the residual trust certificates sold to third-party investors are measured at fair
value, using a discounted cash flow model, and presented within accrued expenses and other liabilities on the
consolidated balance sheets. In addition to the retained residual certificates, our continued involvement includes loan
servicing responsibilities over the life of the underlying loans.
We defer and amortize debt issuance costs for consolidated securitization trusts on a straight-line basis over
the expected life of the notes.

Retained Beneficial Interests in Unconsolidated VIEs

The investors of the securitizations have no direct recourse to the assets of Affirm, and the timing and
amount of beneficial interest payments is dependent on the performance of the underlying loan assets held within
each trust. We have classified our retained beneficial interests in unconsolidated securitization trusts as“available
for sale” and as such they are disclosed at fair value in our consolidated balance sheets.
See Note 13. Fair Value of Financial Assets and Liabilitiesfor additional information on the fair value

Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis (Level 2)

Marketable Securities

As of June 30, 2023, we held marketable securities classified as cash and cash equivalents and available for
sale. Management obtains pricing from one or more third-party pricing services for the purpose of determining fair
value. Whenever available, the fair value is based on quoted bid prices as of the end of the trading day. When quoted
prices are not available, other methods may be utilized including evaluated prices provided by third-party pricing
services.

Derivative Instruments

As of June 30, 2023 and June 30, 2022, we used a combination of interest rate cap agreements and interest
rate swaps to manage interest costs and the risks associated with variable interest rates. These derivative instruments
are classified as Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy, and the fair value is estimated by using third-party pricing
models, which contain certain assumptions based on readily observable market-based inputs. We validate the

Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis using Significant Unobservable Inputs (Level 3)

We evaluate our assets and liabilities subject to fair value measurements on a recurring basis to determine
the appropriate level at which to classify them each reporting period. Since our servicing assets and liabilities,
performance fee liability, securitization notes and residual trust certificates, contingent consideration, profit share
liability, and credit enhancement liability do not trade in an active market with readily observable prices, we use
significant unobservable inputs to measure fair value and have classified as level 3 within the fair value hierarchy.
This determination requires significant judgments to be made.

Servicing Assets and Liabilities

We sold loans with an unpaid principal balance of $7.5 billion, $7.1 billion, and $3.2 billion for the years
ended June 30, 2023, 2022, and 2021, respectively, for which we retained servicing rights.
As of June 30, 2023 and June 30, 2022, we serviced loans which we sold with a remaining unpaid principal
balance of $4.1 billion and $4.5 billion, respectively.
We use discounted cash flow models to arrive at an estimate of fair value. Significant assumptions used in
the valuation of our servicing rights are as follows:

Adequate Compensation

We estimate adequate compensation as the rate a willing market participant would require for servicing
loans with similar characteristics as those in the serviced portfolio.

Discount Rate

Estimated future payments to be received under servicing agreements are discounted as a part of
determining the fair value of the servicing rights. For servicing rights on loans, the discount rate reflects the time
value of money and a risk premium intended to reflect the amount of compensation market participants would
require.

Gross Default Rate

We estimate the timing and probability of early loan payoffs, loan defaults and write-offs, thus affecting the
projected unpaid principal balance and expected term of the loan, which are used to project future servicing revenue
and expenses.
We earned $87.5 million, $65.8 million, and $24.7 million of servicing income for the years ended June 30,
2023, 2022, and 2021, respectively.
As of June 30, 2023 and June 30, 2022, the aggregate fair value of the servicing assets was measured at
$0.9 million and $1.2 million, respectively, and presented within other assets on the consolidated balance sheets. As
of June 30, 2023 and June 30, 2022, the aggregate fair value of the servicing liabilities was measured at $1.4 million
and $2.7 million, respectively, and presented within accrued expenses and other liabilities on the consolidated
balance sheets.

Performance Fee Liability

In accordance with our agreements with our originating bank partners, we pay a fee for each loan that is
fully repaid by the consumer, due at the end of the period in which the loan is fully repaid. We recognize a liability
upon the purchase of a loan for the expected future payment of the performance fee. This liability is measured using
a discounted cash flow model and recorded at fair value and presented within accrued expenses and other liabilities

Contingent Consideration

Our acquisition of PayBright, Inc. (“PayBright”) on January 1, 2021 included consideration transferred and
2,587,362 shares of our common stock held in escrow, contingent upon the achievement of future milestones. At the
acquisition date, we classified the contingent consideration as a liability and estimated its fair value using a Monte
Carlo simulation utilizing assumptions of simulated revenue, equity volatility, and a discount rate. The liability is
remeasured to its fair value at each reporting date, until the contingency is resolved. For periods in which actual
revenues are unknown, the fair value is estimated using a Monte Carlo simulation. For periods in which revenue is
known, the fair value is estimated based on the shares expected to be released from escrow multiplied by the
estimated share price. The fair value estimate represents a Level 3 measurement, as the revenue milestone represents
a significant unobservable input. During the year ended June 30, 2022, one of these milestones was achieved and
1,293,681 shares of our Class A common stock were released from escrow, resulting in a reduction to the contingent
liability. During the year ended June 30, 2023, an additional milestone was achieved, resulting in the release of the
remaining 1,293,681 shares of our Class A and Class B common stock from escrow and settlement of the remaining
contingent liability. The change in fair value of the contingent consideration at each reporting date is recognized as a
component of other (expense) income, net in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss for
the respective period.

Risk Sharing Arrangements

In connection with certain capital funding arrangements with third party loan buyers, we have entered into
risk sharing agreements where we may be required to make a payment to the loan buyer if actual losses on the loans
sold exceed agreed-upon expected losses, subject to a cap based on a percentage of the principal balance of loans
sold. Losses are calculated at a cohort level based on the sale date. For a given cohort where actual losses are below
the contractual loss threshold, we may earn credits that reduce our liability with respect to cohorts where losses have
exceeded the contractual loss threshold.
The Company accounts for these arrangements as derivatives measured at fair value with gains and losses
recognized in the income statement through Gain on sale of loans. Given the recency of loan sales in connection
with these arrangements, which were in close proximity to the end of the period, there have not been any significant
changes in our loss expectations since the time of sale. At the time of sale and as ofJune 30, 2023, we estimated that
the fair value of these loss sharing arrangements was$0, in each case using forward looking loss assumptions which
are derived based on historical loan performance for loans with similar contractual terms and credit characteristics.
ThroughJune 30, 2023we have sold$381.1 millionunpaid principal balance of loans under these risk
sharing arrangements, of which our maximum exposure to losses is$8.2 million.

Each holder of Class B common stock has the right to 15 votes and can be converted at any time into one share of
Class A common stock. Holders of Class A and Class B common stock are entitled to notice of any stockholders’
meeting in accordance with the bylaws of the corporation, and are entitled to vote upon such matters and in such
manner as may be provided by law. Subject to the prior rights of holders of all classes of stock at the time
outstanding having prior rights as to dividends, the holders of the common stock are entitled to receive, when and as
declared by the Board of Directors, out of any assets of the corporation legally available therefore, such dividends as
may be declared from time to time by the Board of Directors.

Common Stock Warrants

Common stock warrants are included as a component of additional paid in capital within the consolidated
balance sheets.
During the year ended June 30, 2022, we granted warrants to purchase 22,000,000 shares of common stock
in connection with our commercial agreements with Amazon. 7,000,000 of the warrant shares have an exercise price
of $0.01 per share and a term of 3.5 years, while the remaining 15,000,000 warrant shares have an exercise price of
$100 per share and a term of 7.5 years. We valued the warrants at the grant date using the Black-Scholes-Merton
option pricing model with the following assumptions: a dividend yield of zero; years to maturity of 3.5 and 7.5
years, respectively; volatility of 45%; and a risk-free rate of 0.93% and 1.47%, respectively. We recognized an asset
of $133.5 million associated with the portion of the warrants that were fully vested at the grant date. Refer to Note 6.
Balance Sheet Components for more information on the asset and related amortization during the period. The
remaining grant-date fair value of the warrants will be recognized within our consolidated statements of operations

$39.5 million, $30.3 million, and $97.4 million, respectively.
The fair value of each option on the date of grant is determined using the Black Scholes-Merton option
pricing model using the single-option award approach with the weighted-average assumptions set forth in the table
below. Volatility is based on historical volatility rates obtained from certain public companies that operate in the
same or related business as us since there is a limited period of historical market data for our common stock. The
risk-free interest rate is determined using a U.S. Treasury rate for the period that coincides with the expected term
set forth. We used the simplified method to determine an estimate of the expected term of an employee share option.

As of June 30, 2023, unrecognized compensation expense related to unvested stock options was

When an employee exercises stock options, we collect and remit taxes on the employee’s behalf to
applicable taxing authorities. As of June 30, 2023 and June 30, 2022, the balance of equity exercise taxes payable
was $3.4 million and $10.9 million, respectively, which is included in accounts payable on the consolidated balance
sheets.

Value Creation Award

In November 2020, in connection with an overall review of the compensation of Max Levchin, our Chief
Executive Officer, in advance of the IPO, and taking into account Mr. Levchin’s leadership since the inception of
the Company, the comparatively modest level of cash compensation he had received from the Company during his
many years of service, and that he did not hold any unvested equity awards, the Company's Board of Directors
approved a long-term, multi-year performance-based stock option grant providing Mr. Levchin with the opportunity
to earn the right to purchase up to 12,500,000 shares of the Company's Class A common stock (the “Value Creation
Award”).
As discussed below, the Value Creation Award will only be earned, if at all, in the event the price of our
Class A common stock attains stock price hurdles that are significantly in excess of the Company's IPO price per
share, over a period of five years, subject to Mr. Levchin’s continued service to the Company.
The Value Creation Award is divided into ten tranches, each of which Mr. Levchin may earn by satisfying
a performance condition within a five-year period following the IPO. The performance condition for each tranche
will be satisfied on the date the 90 average trading day volume weighted share price of the Company’s Class A
common stock exceeds certain specified stock price hurdles, presented in the table below, which were determined
based on a target percentage of share price appreciation from the IPO price. Once earned as a result of satisfying the
performance condition, the options will vest and become exercisable over a five-year period that commenced at the
time of the IPO, subject to Mr. Levchin’s continued service to the Company, in annual amounts equal to 15%, 15%,
20%, 25% and 25%, respectively. The per share exercise price of the Value Creation Award is $49.00, the price to
the public in the IPO.

considered probable of being satisfied. During the years ended June 30, 2023 and June 30, 2022, we incurred stock-
based compensation expense of $94.6 million and $140.7 million, respectively, associated with the Value Creation
Award as a component of general and administrative expense within the consolidated statements of operations and
comprehensive loss. Based on achievement of the stock price hurdles and time-based service conditions, 1,875,000
shares vested during both years ended June 30, 2023 and 2022. As of June 30, 2023, none of these awards have been

As of June 30, 2023, unrecognized compensation expense related to the Value Creation Award was
approximately $112.9 million, which is expected to be recognized over a remaining weighted-average period of 2.5
years.

Restricted Stock Units

RSUs granted prior to the IPO were subject to two vesting conditions: a service-based vesting condition
(i.e., employment over a period of time) and a performance-based vesting condition (i.e., a liquidity event in the
form of either a change of control or an initial public offering, each as defined in the Plan), both of which must be
met in order to vest. The performance-based condition was met upon the IPO. We record stock-based compensation
expense for those RSUs on an accelerated attribution method over the requisite service period, which is generally
four years. RSUs granted after IPO are subject to a service-based vesting condition. We record stock-based
compensation expense for service-based RSUs on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period, which is
generally one to four years.

2020 Employee Stock Purchase Plan

On November 18, 2020, our Board of Directors adopted and approved the 2020 Employee Stock Purchase
Plan (“ESPP”). The purpose of the ESPP is to secure the services of new employees, to retain the services of
existing employees and to provide incentives for such individuals to exert maximum effort towards the success of
the Company and that of its affiliates. A total of 10.9 million shares of Class A common stock are reserved and
available for issuance under the ESPP and 1.1 million shares have been issued as of June 30, 2023. The ESPP
provides for six-month offering periods beginning December 1 and June 1 of each year. At the end of each offering
period, shares of our Class A common stock are purchased on behalf of each ESPP participant at a price per share
equal to 85% of the lesser of (1) the fair market value of the Class A common stock on first day of the offering
period (the grant date) or (2) the fair market value of the Class A common stock on the last day of the offering
period (the purchase date). We use the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model to measure the fair value of the
purchase rights issued under the ESPP at the first day of the offering period, which represents the grant date. We
record stock-based compensation expense on a straight-line basis over each six-month offering period, the requisite
service period of the award.

In connection with the acquisition of Returnly on May 1, 2021, we issued 304,364 shares of our Class A
common stock, which were held in escrow. Because the future payment of the escrowed shares was contingent on
continued employment of certain employees, the arrangement represents stock-based compensation in the post
combination period. The grant-date fair value was estimated based on the value of the shares at the date of closing.
The escrowed shares had a requisite service period of two years and contained a performance-based vesting
condition (i.e., the achievement of certain revenue targets). We recorded stock-based compensation expense on a
straight-line basis for each tranche over the requisite service period, as long as the performance-based conditions
were considered probable of being satisfied. During the year ended June 30, 2023, the arrangement was modified
and subsequently terminated. The modification and subsequent termination resulted in the recognition of $2.0
million of incremental compensation cost within general and administrative expense in our consolidated statement of
operations and comprehensive loss, as well as the release of 45,459 shares from escrow and the remittance of
258,905 shares back to the Company.

16. Restructuring and other

On February 8, 2023, we committed to a restructuring plan (the “2023 Restructuring Plan”) designed to
manage our operating expenses in response to current macroeconomic conditions and ongoing business
prioritization efforts. As part of the plan, we reduced our workforce by approximately 500 employees, representing
approximately 19% of our employees and incurred lease exit costs related to vacating a portion of our San Francisco
office. Restructuring and other consists of employee severance pay and related costs and accelerations of
amortization expense for the lease asset associated with certain of our office spaces.

while the income tax benefits for the years ended June 30, 2022 and June 30, 2021 were primarily attributable to a
change in our assessment of the future realization of our Canadian deferred tax assets and to an adjustment to the
Company's valuation allowance resulting from a deferred tax liability assumed with the acquisition of Returnly,
respectively.

We continue to recognize a full valuation allowance against our U.S. federal and state and certain foreign
net deferred tax assets. This determination was based on the assessment of the available positive and negative
evidence to estimate whether sufficient future taxable income will be generated to utilize the existing deferred tax
assets. A significant piece of objective negative evidence evaluated was the cumulative loss incurred by the
Company for the years ended June 30, 2023, 2022, and 2021. The presence of a three-year cumulative loss limits the

ability to consider other subjective evidence, such as our expectations of future taxable income and projections for
growth. The valuation allowance increased by $122.0 million during the year ended June 30, 2023.
As a result of the integration and consolidation of our PayBright business into and with Affirm’s Canadian
business, the expansion of our overall business in Canada, and other objectively verifiable positive evidence
available, all of which we have concluded is sufficient to outweigh the existing negative evidence – including the
presence of a three-year cumulative loss attributable to the Canadian jurisdiction, we have determined that it is more
likely than not that our Canadian deferred tax assets will be realized and a valuation allowance is not required.
As of June 30, 2023, we had pretax U.S. federal net operating loss ("NOL") carryforwards of
approximately $3,393.3 million, state NOL carryforwards of $4,706.7 million, Canadian NOL carryforwards of
$77.4 million, and U.K. NOL carryforwards of $9.6 million. If not utilized, certain U.S. federal and state NOL
carryforwards will begin to expire in 2029, whereas others have an unlimited carryforward period, and foreign NOL
carryforwards will begin to expire in 2039, with others that have an unlimited carryforward period as well.
Additionally, as of June 30, 2023, we also had U.S. federal and state research and development tax credit
carryforwards of $87.8 million and $41.9 million, respectively. The U.S. federal research and development tax credit
carryforwards will begin to expire in 2041 while the state research and development tax credits may be carried
forward indefinitely. As of June 30, 2023, the Company also had other state tax credit carryforwards of $2.6 million,
which will begin to expire in 2024 if not utilized.
Of the above NOL carryforwards, approximately $42.0 million pretax U.S. federal NOL carryforwards and
$36.4 million state NOL carryforwards are from domestic acquisitions, which may be subject to an annual utilization
limitation under Internal Revenue Code Section 382.
The future utilization of all domestic NOL and tax credit carryforwards may be subject to an annual
limitation, pursuant to Internal Revenue Code Sections 382 and 383 and similar state provisions, due to ownership
changes that may have occurred previously or that could occur in the future. Any limitation may result in the
expiration of all or a portion of the NOL carryforwards before utilization.
The Company accounts for uncertainties in income taxes in accordance with ASC 740, Income Taxes

unrecognized tax benefits (in thousands):

As of June 30, 2023, the Company had no unrecognized tax benefits related to uncertain tax positions that,
if recognized, would impact the effective tax rate. The Company does not expect the total amount of unrecognized
tax benefits to significantly increase or decrease within the next twelve months.
Interest and penalties on unrecognized tax benefits are recorded as a component of tax expense. During the
years ended June 30, 2023, 2022, and 2021, we did not recognize accrued interest and penalties related to
unrecognized tax benefits.
We file U.S. federal and state income tax returns as well as various foreign income tax returns with varying
statutes of limitation. With respect to the Company’s major tax filings, all tax years remain open to examination due
to the carryover of unused net operating losses.

Affirm Holdings, Inc. (“Affirm,” the “Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our”), headquartered in San Francisco, California, provides consumers with a simpler, more transparent, and flexible alternative to traditional payment options. Our mission is to deliver honest financial products that improve lives. Through our next-generation commerce platform, agreements with originating banks, and capital markets partners, we enable consumers to confidently pay for a purchase over time, with terms ranging up to sixty months. When a consumer applies for a loan through our platform, the loan is underwritten using our proprietary risk model, and once approved, the consumer selects their preferred repayment option. Loans are directly originated or funded and issued by our originating bank partners.

Merchants partner with us to transform the consumer shopping experience and to acquire and convert customers more effectively through our frictionless point-of-sale payment solutions. Consumers get the flexibility to buy now and make simple regular payments for their purchases and merchants see increased average order value, repeat purchase rates, and an overall more satisfied customer base. Unlike legacy payment options and our competitors’ product offerings, which charge deferred or compounding interest and unexpected costs, we disclose up-front to consumers exactly what they will owe — no hidden fees, no deferred interest, no penalties.

2.���Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying interim condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”), as contained in the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”), disclosure requirements for interim financial information, and the requirements of Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto for the fiscal year ended June�30, 2023. The balance sheet as of June�30, 2023 has been derived from the audited financial statements at that date. Management believes these interim condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, including those of a normal and recurring nature, which are necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods presented. The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year or any other interim period.

Our interim condensed financial statements have been prepared on a consolidated basis. Under this basis of presentation, our financial statements consolidate all wholly owned subsidiaries and variable interest entities (“VIEs”), in which we have a controlling financial interest. These include various business trust entities and limited partnerships established to enter into warehouse credit agreements with certain lenders for funding debt facilities and certain asset-backed securitization transactions. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Our variable interest arises from contractual, ownership, or other monetary interests in the entity, which changes with fluctuations in the fair value of the entity’s net assets. We consolidate a VIE when we are deemed to be the primary beneficiary. We assess whether or not we are the primary beneficiary of a VIE on an ongoing basis.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of interim condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires the use of estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amounts in the interim condensed consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes. Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change relate to determination of the allowance for credit losses, capitalized internal-use software development costs, valuation allowance for deferred tax assets, loss on loan purchase commitment, the fair value of

servicing assets and liabilities, discount on self-originated loans, the fair value of assets acquired and any contingent consideration transferred in business combinations, the evaluation for impairment of intangible assets and goodwill, the fair value of available for sale debt securities including retained interests in our securitization trusts, the fair value of residual certificates issued by our securitization trusts held by third parties, and stock-based compensation, including the fair value of warrants issued to nonemployees. We base our estimates on historical experience, current events, and other factors we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. To the extent that there are material differences between these estimates and actual results, our financial condition or operating results will be materially affected.

These estimates are based on information available as of the date of the interim condensed consolidated financial statements; therefore, actual results could differ materially from those estimates. ��

Total revenue, net $ 496,547$ 361,624

Merchant Network Revenue — Revenue from Contracts with Customers

Merchant network revenue consists of merchant fees. Merchant partners (or integrated merchants) are generally charged a fee based on gross merchandise volume (“GMV”) processed through the Affirm platform. The fees vary depending on the individual arrangement between us and each merchant and on the terms of the product offering. The fee is recognized at the point in time the merchant successfully confirms the transaction, which is when the terms of the executed merchant agreement are fulfilled.

Our contracts with merchants are defined at the transaction level and do not extend beyond the service already provided (i.e., each transaction represents a separate contract). The fees collected from merchants for each transaction are determined as a percentage of the value of the goods purchased by the consumer from merchants and consider a number of factors including the end consumer’s credit risk and financing term. We do not have any capitalized contract costs, and do not carry any material contract balances.

Our service comprises a single performance obligation to merchants to facilitate transactions with consumers. From time to time, we offer merchants incentives to promote our platform to their customers, such as fee reductions or rebates. These amounts are recorded as a reduction to merchant network revenue.

We may originate certain loans via our wholly-owned subsidiaries, with zero or below market interest rates. In these instances, the par value of the loans originated is in excess of the fair market value of such loans, resulting

12

– II-225 –

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF AFFIRM

APPENDIX II

Table of Contents

in a loss on loan origination, which we record as a reduction to network revenue. In certain cases, the losses incurred on loans originated for a merchant may exceed the total network revenue earned on those loans. We record the excess loss amounts as a sales and marketing expense.

A portion of merchant network revenue relates to affiliate network revenue, which is generated when a user makes a purchase on a merchant’s website after being directed from an advertisement on Affirm’s website or mobile application. We earn a fixed placement fee and/or commission as a percentage of the associated sale. Revenue is recognized at the point in time when the performance obligation has been fulfilled, which is when the sale occurs.

For the three months ended September�30, 2023 and 2022, there were no merchants that exceeded 10% of total revenue.

Card Network Revenue — Revenue from Contracts with Customers

We have agreements with card-issuing partners to facilitate the issuance of physical and virtual debit cards to be used by consumers at checkout. Consumers can apply at Affirm.com or via the Affirm app and, upon approval, receive a single-use virtual card to use digitally online or in-store. The card is funded at the time a transaction is authorized using cash held by the card-issuing partner in a reserve fund. Eligible consumers can also use the Affirm Card, a debit card issued by a card-issuing partner to pay in full, debited from their bank account, or pay later, by using a unique post-purchase feature that allows them to instantly convert any eligible debit transaction into an installment loan. Where applicable, our originating bank partner, or wholly-owned subsidiaries, then originates a loan to the consumer after the transaction is confirmed by the merchant. The merchant is charged interchange fees for each successful debit card transaction, and a portion of this revenue is shared with us by our card-issuing partners.

Merchants may also elect to utilize our agreement with card-issuing partners as a means of integrating Affirm services. Similarly, for these arrangements with integrated merchants, the merchant is charged interchange fees for each successful debit card transaction and a portion of this revenue is shared with us. From time to time, we offer certain integrated merchants promotional incentives to promote our platform to their customers, such as rebates of interchange fees incurred by the merchant. These amounts are recorded as a reduction of card network revenue.

Our contracts with our card-issuing partners are defined at the transaction level and do not extend beyond the service already provided. The revenue collected from card-issuing partners for each transaction are determined as a�percentage of the interchange fees charged on transactions facilitated on the payment processor network, and revenue is recognized at the point in time the transaction is completed successfully. The amounts collected are presented in revenue, net of associated transaction-related processing fees paid to our card-issuing partners. We have concluded that the revenue collected does not give rise to a future material right because the pricing of each transaction does not depend on the volume of prior successful transactions. We do not have any capitalized contract costs, and do not carry any material contract balances.

Our service comprises a single performance obligation to the card-issuing partner to facilitate transactions with consumers.

A portion of card network revenue relates to incentive payments from card network partners, which we are eligible to receive for reaching certain cumulative volume targets on program cards issued by the issuer processors. We earn incentive revenue as a percentage of each associated transaction and estimate the applicable percentage based on observed cumulative volume on program cards. Revenue is recognized at the point in time when the performance obligation has been fulfilled, which is when the transaction is completed successfully.

Interest Income

Interest income consisted of the following components (in thousands):
Three Months En ded September 30,
2023 2022
Contractual interest income on unpaid principal balance $ 226,158$ 106,138
Amortization of discount on loans 45,118 38,969
Amortization of premiums on loans (3,980) (4,374)
Interest receivable charged-off, net of recoveries (4,617) (3,931)
Total interest income $ 262,679$ 136,802

We accrue interest income using the effective interest method, which includes the amortization of any discounts or premiums on loan receivables created upon the purchase of a loan from our originating bank partners or upon the origination of a loan. Interest income on a loan is accrued daily, based on the finance charge disclosed to the consumer, over the term of the loan based upon the principal outstanding. The accrual of interest on a loan is suspended if a formal dispute with the consumer involving either Affirm or the merchant of record is opened, or a loan is 120 days past due. Upon the resolution of a dispute with the consumer, the accrual of interest is resumed, and any interest that would have been earned during the disputed period is retroactively accrued. As of September�30, 2023 and June�30, 2023, the balance of loans held for investment on non-accrual status was $1.2 million and $1.8 million, respectively.

The account is charged-off in the period if the account becomes 120 days past due or meets other charge-off policy requirements. Past due status is based on the contractual terms of the loans. Previously recognized interest receivable from charged-off loans that is accrued but not collected from the consumer is reversed.

Gain on Sales of Loans

We sell certain loans we originate or purchase from our originating bank partners directly to third-party investors or to securitizations. We recognize a gain or loss on sale of loans sold to third parties or to unconsolidated securitizations as the difference between the proceeds received and the carrying value of the loan, adjusted for the initial recognition of any assets or liabilities incurred upon sale, which generally include a net servicing asset or liability in connection with our ongoing obligation to continue to service the loans and a recourse liability based on our estimate of future losses in connection with our obligation to repurchase loans that do not meet certain contractual requirements and such information about the loan was unknown at the time of sale.

Servicing Income

Servicing income includes contractual fees specified in our servicing agreements with third-party loan owners and unconsolidated securitizations that are earned from providing professional services to manage loan portfolios on their behalf. The servicing fee is calculated on a daily basis by multiplying a set fee�percentage (as outlined in the executed agreements with third-party loan owners) by the outstanding loan principal balance. Servicing income also includes fair value adjustments for servicing assets and servicing liabilities.

Less: Fair value adjustment on loans acquired through business combination (32) (241)
Total loans held for investment $ 4,549,422 $ 4,402,962

Loans held for investment includes loans originated through our originating bank partners and directly originated loans. The majority of the loans that are underwritten using our technology platform and originated by our originating bank partners are later purchased by us. We purchased loans from our originating bank partners in the amount of $4.6 billion and $3.5 billion during the three months ended September�30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

These loans have a variety of lending terms as well as maturities ranging from one to sixty months. Given that our loan portfolio focuses on one product segment, point-of-sale unsecured installment loans, we generally evaluate the entire portfolio as a single homogeneous loan portfolio and make merchant or program specific adjustments as necessary.

We closely monitor credit quality for our loan receivables to manage and evaluate our related exposure to credit risk. Credit risk management begins with initial underwriting, where loan applications are assessed against the credit underwriting policy and procedures for our directly originated loans and originating bank partner loans, and continues through to full repayment of a loan. To assess a consumer who requests a loan, we use, among other indicators, internally developed risk models using detailed information from external sources, such as credit bureaus where available, and internal historical experience, including the consumer’s prior repayment history on our platform as well as other measures. We combine these factors to establish a proprietary score as a credit quality indicator.

Our proprietary score (“ITACs”) is assigned to most loans facilitated through our technology platform, ranging from zero to 100, with 100 representing the highest credit quality and therefore the lowest likelihood of loss. The ITACs model analyzes the characteristics of a consumer's attributes that are shown to be predictive of both willingness and ability to repay including, but not limited to: basic features of a consumer's credit profile, a consumer's prior repayment performance with other creditors, current credit utilization, and legal and policy changes. When a consumer passes both fraud and credit policy checks, the application is assigned an ITACs score. ITACs is also used for portfolio performance monitoring. Our credit risk team closely tracks the distribution of ITACs at the portfolio level, as well as ITACs at the individual loan level to monitor for signs of a changing credit profile within the portfolio. Repayment performance within each ITACs band is also monitored to support both the integrity of the risk scoring models and to measure possible changes in consumer behavior amongst various credit tiers.

We maintain an allowance for credit losses at a level sufficient to absorb expected credit losses based on evaluating known and inherent risks in our loan portfolio. The allowance for credit losses is determined based on our current estimate of expected credit losses over the remaining contractual term, historical credit losses, consumer payment trends, estimates of recoveries, and future expectations as of each balance sheet date. Adjustments to the allowance each period for changes in our estimate of lifetime expected credit losses are recognized in earnings through the provision for credit losses presented on our interim condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. When available information confirms that specific loans or portions thereof are uncollectible, identified amounts are charged against the allowance for credit losses. Loans are charged off in accordance with our charge-off policy, as the contractual principal becomes 120 days past due. Subsequent recoveries of the unpaid principal balance, if any, are credited to the allowance for credit losses.

Loan Modifications for Borrowers Experiencing Financial Difficulty

We have a loan modification program for eligible borrowers facing financial difficulty if they have at least one outstanding loan with Affirm and certain other eligibility criteria are met. We consider a borrower to be experiencing financial difficulty when a loan is between 30 and 120 days past due at the time of modification. The objective of the loan modification program is to offer borrowers assistance during times of financial stress, increase recovery rates, and minimize losses.

We have two primary loan modification strategies: payment deferrals and loan re-amortization. A payment deferral provides the borrower relief by extending the due date for the next payment due. While a borrower may obtain more than one deferral, the total deferral period may not exceed three months. A loan re-amortization

provides the borrower relief by lowering monthly payments through extending the term length of the loan. The total interest due from the consumer will not exceed the initial total interest due prior to modification. A loan may not be re-amortized more than once.

The following table presents the amortized cost basis of loans excluding accrued interest receivable that were modified for borrowers experiencing financial difficulty during the three months ended September�30, 2023, by type of modification (in thousands):

With respect to borrowers who received payment deferrals during the three months ended September�30, 2023, the length of each deferral period was one month.

With respect to borrowers who received loan re-amortization during the three months ended September�30, 2023, the payment amount was reduced by half and the term of the loan was extended between two and twelve months.

We closely monitor the performance of loans that are modified for borrowers experiencing financial difficulty to understand the effectiveness of our modification efforts. We hold an allowance for credit losses for modified loans classified as held for investment. Our allowance estimate considers whether a loan has been modified due to a borrower experiencing financial difficulty and the increased likelihood that such loan may become delinquent or charge-off in the future.

The following table presents the delinquency status as of September�30, 2023 (in thousands), by amortized cost basis excluding accrued interest receivable, of loan receivables that have been modified within the last 12 months where the borrower was experiencing financial difficulty at the time of modification:

Commercial Agreement Assets

In November 2021, we granted warrants in connection with our commercial agreements with certain subsidiaries of Amazon.com, Inc. (“Amazon”). The warrants were granted in exchange for certain performance provisions and the benefit of acquiring new users. We recognized an asset of $133.5 million associated with the portion of the warrants that were fully vested upon grant. The asset was valued based on the fair value of the warrants and represents the probable future economic benefit to be realized over the approximate three year term of the commercial agreement at the grant date. For the three months ended September�30, 2023 and 2022, we recognized amortization expense of $10.4 million for both periods in our interim condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss as a component of sales and marketing expense. Refer to Note 14. Stockholders’ Equity for further discussion of the warrants.

In July 2020, we recognized an asset in connection with a commercial agreement with Shopify Inc. (“Shopify”), in which we granted warrants in exchange for the opportunity to acquire new merchant partners. This asset represents the probable future economic benefit to be realized over the expected benefit period and is valued based on the fair value of the warrants on the grant date. We recognized an asset of $270.6 million associated with the fair value of the warrants, which were fully vested as of September�30, 2023. The expected benefit period of the asset was initially estimated to be four years, and the remaining useful life of the asset is reevaluated each reporting period. During fiscal year 2022, the remaining expected benefit period was extended by two years upon the execution of an amendment to the commercial agreement with Shopify which extended the term of the agreement. During the three months ended September�30, 2023 and 2022, we recorded amortization expense related to the commercial agreement asset of $9.0 million for both periods in our interim condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss as a component of sales and marketing expense.

In January 2021, we recognized an asset in connection with a commercial agreement with an enterprise partner, in which we granted stock appreciation rights in exchange for the benefit of acquiring access to the partner's consumers. This asset represents the probable future economic benefit to be realized over the three-year expected benefit period and is valued based on the fair value of the stock appreciation rights on the grant date. We initially recognized an asset of $25.9 million associated with the fair value of the stock appreciation rights. During the three months ended September�30, 2023 and 2022, we recorded amortization expense related to the asset of $2.1 million for both periods in our interim condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss as a component of sales and marketing expense.

7. Leases

We lease facilities under operating leases with various expiration dates through 2030. We have the option to renew or extend our leases. Certain lease agreements include the option to terminate the lease with prior written notice ranging from nine months to one year. As of September�30, 2023, we have not considered such provisions in the determination of the lease term, as it is not reasonably certain these options will be exercised. Leases have remaining terms that range from less than one year to seven years.

Several leases require us to obtain standby letters of credit, naming the lessor as a beneficiary. These letters of credit act as security for the faithful performance by us of all terms, covenants and conditions of the lease agreement. The cash collateral and deposits for the letters of credit have been recognized as restricted cash in the interim condensed consolidated balance sheets and totaled $8.9 million and $9.7 million as of September�30, 2023 and June�30, 2023, respectively.

During the three months ended September�30, 2023, we decided to sublease a portion of our leased office space in San Francisco. As a result, we recorded a lease impairment charge of $0.8 million related to several of our operating lease ROU assets, included in general and administrative expense on our interim consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. There was no impairment expense incurred related to leases during the three months ended September�30, 2022.

8.���Commitments and Contingencies

Repurchase Obligation

Under the normal terms of our whole loans sales to third-party investors, we may become obligated to repurchase loans from investors in certain instances where a breach in representations and warranties is identified. Generally, a breach in representations and warranties could occur where a loan has been identified as subject to verified or suspected fraud, or in cases where a loan was serviced or originated in violation of Affirm’s guidelines. We would only experience a loss if the contractual repurchase price of the loan exceeds the fair value on the repurchase date. This amount was not material as of September�30, 2023.

Legal Proceedings

From time to time, we are subject to legal proceedings and claims in the ordinary course of business. The results of such matters often cannot be predicted with certainty. In accordance with applicable accounting guidance, we establish an accrued liability for legal proceedings and claims when those matters present loss contingencies which are both probable and reasonably estimable.

Kusnier v. Affirm Holdings, Inc.

On December 8, 2022, plaintiff Mark Kusnier filed a putative class action lawsuit against Affirm, Max Levchin, and Michael Linford in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California (the “Kusnier action”). Plaintiff’s amended complaint filed on May 5, 2023 alleges that defendants: (i) caused Affirm to make materially false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that Affirm’s BNPL service facilitated excessive consumer debt (including with respect to certain for-profit educational institutions), regulatory arbitrage, and data harvesting; (ii) made false and/or misleading statements about certain public regulatory actions; and (iii) made false and/or misleading statements about whether Affirm’s business model was vulnerable to interest rate changes. In light of the above, plaintiff asserts that Affirm violated Section 10(b) of the Exchange Act and Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder, and that Levchin and Linford violated Section 20(a) of the Exchange Act. Plaintiff seeks class certification, unspecified compensatory and punitive damages, and costs and expenses.

Quiroga v. Levchin, et al.

On March 29, 2023, plaintiff John Quiroga filed a shareholder derivative lawsuit in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California (the “Quiroga action”) against Affirm, as a nominal defendant, and certain of Affirm’s current officers and directors as defendants based on allegations substantially similar to those in the Kusnier action. The Quiroga complaint purports to assert claims on Affirm’s behalf for contribution under the federal securities laws, breaches of fiduciary duty, unjust enrichment, and waste of corporate assets, and seeks corporate reforms, unspecified damages and restitution, and fees and costs. On May 1, 2023, the action was stayed by agreement of the parties. The stay can be lifted at the request of either party or upon certain conditions relating to the resolution of the Kusnier action.

Jeffries v. Levchin, et al.

On May 24, 2023, plaintiff Sabrina Jeffries filed a shareholder derivative lawsuit in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California against Affirm, as a nominal defendant, and certain of Affirm's current officers and directors as defendants based on allegations substantially similar to those in the Kusnier and Quiroga actions. The Jeffries complaint purports to assert claims on Affirm's behalf for breach of fiduciary duties, making false statements under federal securities law, unjust enrichment, waste of corporate assets, and aiding and abetting breach of fiduciary duties, and seeks unspecified damages, equitable relief, and fees and costs. On August 15, 2023, the action was stayed by agreement of the parties. The stay can be lifted at the request of either party or upon certain conditions relating to the resolution of the Kusnier action.

Vallieres v. Levchin, et al.

On September 14, 2023, plaintiff Michael Vallieres filed a shareholder derivative lawsuit in the U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware against Affirm, as a nominal defendant, and certain of Affirm’s current officers and directors as defendants based on allegations substantially similar to those in the Kusnier, Quiroga, and Jeffries actions. The Vallieres complaint purports to assert claims on Affirm's behalf for breach of fiduciary duties, gross management, abuse of control, unjust enrichment, and contribution, and seeks unspecified damages, equitable relief, and fees and costs.

We have determined, based on current knowledge, that the aggregate amount or range of losses that are estimable with respect to our legal proceedings, including the matters described above, would not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows. Amounts accrued as of September�30, 2023 were not material. The ultimate outcome of legal proceedings involves judgments, estimates and inherent uncertainties, and cannot be predicted with certainty.

Secured Borrowing Facilities

U.S.

Through trusts, we entered into warehouse credit facilities with certain lenders to finance the purchase and origination of our loans. Each trust entered into a credit agreement and security agreement with a third-party as administrative agent and a national banking association as collateral trustee and paying agent. Borrowings under these agreements are referred to as funding debt and proceeds from the borrowings can only be used for the purposes of facilitating loan funding and origination, with advance rates ranging from 82% to 86% of the total collateralized balance. These warehouse credit facility trusts, which have been classified as VIEs, are bankruptcy-remote special-purpose vehicles in which creditors do not have recourse against the general credit of Affirm. These revolving facilities mature between fiscal years 2024 and 2031 and generally permit borrowings up to 12 months prior to the final maturity date of each respective facility. As of September�30, 2023, the aggregate commitment amount of these facilities was $4.0 billion on a revolving basis, of which $1.4 billion was drawn, with $2.6 billion remaining available. Some of the loans originated by us or purchased from the originating bank partners are pledged as collateral for borrowings in our facilities. The unpaid principal balance of these loans totaled $1.6 billion and $1.7 billion as of September�30, 2023 and June�30, 2023, respectively.

Borrowings under these warehouse credit facilities bear interest at an annual benchmark rate of Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) or an alternative commercial paper rate (which is�the per annum rate equivalent to the weighted-average of the per annum rates at which all commercial paper notes were issued by certain lenders to fund advances or maintain loans), plus a spread ranging from 1.75% to 2.20%. Interest is payable�monthly. In addition, these agreements require payment of a monthly unused commitment fee ranging from 0.00% to 0.75% per annum on the undrawn portion available.

These agreements contain certain customary negative covenants and financial covenants including maintaining certain levels of minimum liquidity, maximum leverage, and minimum tangible net worth. As of September�30, 2023, we were in compliance with all applicable covenants in the agreements.

International

Additionally, we have various credit facilities utilized to finance the origination of loan receivables in Canada. Similar to our warehouse credit facilities, borrowings under these agreements are referred to as funding

debt, and proceeds from the borrowings may only be used for the purposes of facilitating loan funding and origination. These facilities are secured by Canadian loan receivables pledged to the respective facility as collateral, mature between fiscal years 2025 and 2029, and bear interest based on benchmark rates plus a spread ranging from 1.25% to 4.25%.

As of September�30, 2023, the aggregate commitment amount of these facilities was $505.5 million on a revolving basis, of which $360.4 million was drawn, with $145.1 million remaining available. The unpaid principal balance of loans pledged to these facilities totaled $429.0 million and $412.8 million as of September�30, 2023 and June�30, 2023, respectively.

These agreements contain certain customary negative covenants and financial covenants including maintaining certain levels of minimum liquidity, maximum leverage, and minimum tangible net worth at the Affirm Canada subsidiary level or the Affirm Holdings level. As of September�30, 2023, we were in compliance with all applicable covenants in the agreements.

Sales and Repurchase Agreements

We entered into certain sale and repurchase agreements pursuant to our retained interests in our off-balance sheet securitizations where we have sold these securities to a counterparty with an obligation to repurchase at a future date and price. The repurchase agreements each have an initial term of three months and subject to mutual agreement by Affirm and the counterparty, we may enter into one or more repurchase date extensions, each for an additional three-month term at market interest rates on such extension date. As of September�30, 2023, the interest rates were 7.52% for both the senior pledged securities and the residual certificate pledged securities. We had $5.9 million and $11.0 million in debt outstanding under our repurchase agreements disclosed within funding debt on the interim condensed consolidated balance sheets as of September�30, 2023 and June�30, 2023, respectively. The debt will be amortized through regular principal and interest payments on the pledged securities. The outstanding debt relates to $14.0 million and $18.9 million in pledged securities disclosed within securities available for sale at fair value on the interim condensed consolidated balance sheets as of September�30, 2023 and June�30, 2023, respectively.

Convertible Senior Notes

On November�23, 2021, we issued $1,725 million in aggregate principal amount of 0% convertible senior notes due 2026 (the “2026 Notes”) in a private placement to qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The total net proceeds from this offering, after deducting debt issuance costs, were approximately $1,704 million. The 2026 Notes represent our senior unsecured obligations of the Company. The 2026 Notes do not bear interest except in special circumstances described below, and the principal amount of the 2026 Notes does not accrete. The 2026 Notes mature on November�15, 2026.

Each $1,000 of principal of the 2026 Notes will initially be convertible into 4.6371 shares of our common stock, which is equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $215.65 per share, subject to adjustment upon the occurrence of certain specified events set forth in the indenture governing the 2026 Notes (the “Indenture”). Holders of the 2026 Notes may convert their 2026 Notes at their option at any time on or after August�15, 2026 until close of business on the second scheduled trading day immediately preceding the maturity date of November�15, 2026. Further, holders of the 2026 Notes may convert all or any portion of their 2026 Notes at their option prior to the close of business on the business day immediately preceding August�15, 2026, only under the following circumstances:

1) during any calendar quarter commencing after March�31, 2022 (and only during such calendar quarter), if the last reported sale price of the Class A common stock for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) during a period of 30 consecutive trading days ending on, and including, the last trading day of the immediately preceding calendar quarter is greater than or equal to 130% of the conversion price on each applicable trading day;

2) during the five business day period after any five consecutive trading day period (the measurement period) in which the trading price (as defined in the indenture governing the 2026 Notes) per $1,000 principal amount of the 2026 Notes for each trading day of the measurement period was less than 98% of the product of the last reported sale price of the Company’s Class A common stock and the conversion rate on each such trading day;

3) if the Company calls any or all of the notes for redemption, at any time prior to the close of business on the scheduled trading day immediately preceding the redemption date; or

4) upon the occurrence of certain specified corporate events.

Upon conversion of the 2026 Notes, the Company will pay or deliver, as the case may be, cash, shares of our common stock or a combination of cash and shares of our common stock, at the Company’s election. If we satisfy our conversion obligation solely in cash or through payment and delivery, as the case may be, of a combination of cash and shares of our common stock, the amount of cash and shares of common stock, if any, due upon conversion will be based on a daily conversion value (as set forth in the Indenture) calculated on a proportionate basis for each trading day in a 40 trading day observation period.

No sinking fund is provided for the 2026 Notes. We may not redeem the notes prior to November�20, 2024. We may redeem for cash all or part of the notes on or after November�20, 2024 if the last reported sale price of our Class A common stock has been at least 130% of the conversion price then in effect for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) during any 30 consecutive trading day period (including the last trading day of such period) ending on, and including, the trading day immediately preceding the date on which we provide notice of redemption at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid special interest, if any.

If a fundamental change (as defined in the Indenture) occurs prior to the maturity date, holders of the 2026 Notes may require us to repurchase all or a portion of their notes for cash at a repurchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the 2026 Notes, plus any accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the repurchase date. In addition, if specific corporate events occur prior to the maturity date of the 2026 Notes, we will be required to increase the conversion rate for holders who elect to convert their 2026 Notes in connection with such corporate events.

On June�7, 2023, the Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to $800 million in aggregate principal amount of the 2026 Notes. Note repurchases may be made from time to time through December�31, 2023 in privately negotiated transactions. Repurchases are subject to available liquidity, general market and economic conditions, alternate uses for the capital, and other factors, and there is no minimum principal amount of 2026 Notes that the Company is obligated to repurchase. We have not executed any repurchases under this authorization to date.

The convertible senior notes outstanding as of September�30, 2023 consisted of the following (in thousands):

Principal Amount Unamortized Discount and
Issuance Cost
Net Carrying Amount
Convertible senior notes $ 1,425,900$ (10,820) $ 1,415,080

Revolving Credit Facility

On February�4, 2022, we entered into a revolving credit agreement with a syndicate of commercial banks for a $165.0 million unsecured revolving credit facility. On May�16, 2022, we increased unsecured revolving commitments under the facility to $205.0 million. This facility bears interest at a rate equal to, at our option, either (a) a Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) rate determined by reference to the forward-looking term SOFR rate for the interest period, plus an applicable margin of 1.85% per annum or (b) a base rate determined by reference to the highest of (i) the federal funds rate plus 0.50% per annum, (ii) the rate last quoted by the Wall Street Journal as the U.S. prime rate and (iii) the one-month forward-looking term SOFR rate plus 1.00% per annum, in each case, plus an applicable margin of 0.85% per annum. The revolving credit agreement has a final maturity date of February�4, 2025. The facility contains certain covenants and restrictions, including certain financial maintenance covenants, and requires payment of a monthly unused commitment fee of 0.20% per annum on the undrawn balance available. There are no borrowings outstanding under the facility as of September�30, 2023.

10.��Securitization and Variable Interest Entities

Consolidated VIEs

Warehouse Credit Facilitie s

We established certain entities, deemed to be VIEs, to enter into warehouse credit facilities for the purpose of purchasing loans from our originating bank partners and funding directly originated loans. Refer to Note 9.�Debt for additional information. The creditors of the VIEs have no recourse to the general credit of Affirm and the liabilities of the VIEs can only be settled by the respective VIEs’ assets; however, as the servicer of the loans pledged to our warehouse funding facilities, we have the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the VIEs' economic performance. In addition, we retain significant economic exposure to the pledged loans and therefore, we are the primary beneficiary.

Securitizations

In connection with our asset-backed securitization program, we sponsor and establish trusts (deemed to be VIEs) to ultimately purchase loans facilitated by our platform. Securities issued from our asset-backed securitizations are senior or subordinated, based on the waterfall criteria of loan payments to each security class. The subordinated residual interests issued from these transactions are first to absorb credit losses in accordance with the waterfall criteria. For these VIEs, the creditors have no recourse to the general credit of Affirm and the liabilities of the VIEs can only be settled by the respective VIEs’ assets. Additionally, the assets of the VIEs can be used only to settle obligations of the VIEs.

We consolidate securitization VIEs when we are deemed to be the primary beneficiary and therefore have the power to direct the activities that most significantly affect the VIEs’ economic performance and a variable interest that could potentially be significant to the VIE. Through our role as the servicer, we have the power to direct the activities that most significantly affect the VIEs’ economic performance. In evaluating whether we have a variable interest that could potentially be significant to the VIE, we consider our retained interests. We also earn a servicing fee which has a senior distribution priority in the payment waterfall.

In evaluating whether we are the primary beneficiary, management considers both qualitative and quantitative factors regarding the nature, size and form of our involvement with the VIEs. Management assesses whether we are the primary beneficiary of the VIEs on an ongoing basis.

Where we consolidate the securitization trusts, the loans held in the securitization trusts are included in loans held for investment, and the notes sold to third-party investors are recorded in notes issued by securitization trusts in the interim condensed consolidated balance sheets.

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF AFFIRM

APPENDIX II

Table of Contents

For each securitization, the residual trust certificates represent the right to receive excess cash on the loans each collection period after all fees and required distributions have been made to the note holders on the related payment date. For the majority of consolidated securitization VIEs, we retain 100% of the residual trust certificates issued by the securitization trust. Any portion of the residual trust certificates sold to third-party investors are measured at fair value, using a discounted cash flow model, and presented within accrued expenses and other liabilities on the interim condensed consolidated balance sheets. In addition to the retained residual trust certificates, our continued involvement includes loan servicing responsibilities over the life of the underlying loans.

We defer and amortize debt issuance costs for consolidated securitization trusts on a straight-line basis over the expected life of the notes.

Maximum exposure to losses represents our exposure through our continuing involvement as servicer and through our retained interests. For unconsolidated VIEs, this includes $14.0�million in retained notes and residual trust certificates disclosed within securities available for sale at fair value in our interim condensed consolidated balance sheets and $0.2�million related to our servicing assets disclosed within other assets in our interim condensed consolidated balance sheets as of September�30, 2023.

Additionally, we may experience a loss due to future repurchase obligations resulting from breaches in representations and warranties in our securitization and third-party sale agreements. This amount was not material as of September�30, 2023.

Retained Beneficial Interests in Unconsolidated VIEs

The investors of the securitizations have no direct recourse to the assets of Affirm, and the timing and amount of beneficial interest payments is dependent on the performance of the underlying loan assets held within each trust. We have classified our retained beneficial interests in unconsolidated securitization trusts as “available for sale” and as such they are disclosed at fair value in our interim condensed consolidated balance sheets.

See Note 13. Fair Value of Financial Assets and Liabilities for additional information on the fair value sensitivity of the notes receivable and residual trust certificates. Additionally, as of September�30, 2023, we have pledged each of our retained beneficial interests as collateral in a sale and repurchase agreement as described in Note 9. Debt.

Marketable Securities

As of September�30, 2023, we held marketable securities classified as cash and cash equivalents and available for sale. Management obtains pricing from one or more third-party pricing services for the purpose of determining fair value. Whenever available, the fair value is based on quoted bid prices as of the end of the trading day. When quoted prices are not available, other methods may be utilized including evaluated prices provided by thirdparty pricing services.

Derivative Instruments

As of September�30, 2023 and June�30, 2023, we used a combination of interest rate cap agreements and interest rate swaps to manage interest costs and the risks associated with variable interest rates. These derivative instruments are classified as Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy, and the fair value is estimated by using third-party pricing models, which contain certain assumptions based on readily observable market-based inputs. We validate the valuation output on a monthly basis. Refer to Note 12. Derivative Financial Instruments in the notes to the interim condensed consolidated financial statements for further details on our derivative instruments.

Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis using Significant Unobservable Inputs (Level�3)

We evaluate our assets and liabilities subject to fair value measurements on a recurring basis to determine the appropriate level at which to classify them each reporting period. Since our servicing assets and liabilities, performance fee liability, securitization notes and residual trust certificates, contingent consideration, profit share liability, and risk sharing arrangements do not trade in an active market with readily observable prices, we use significant unobservable inputs to measure fair value and have classified as level 3 within the fair value hierarchy. This determination requires significant judgments to be made.

Servicing Assets and Liabilities

We sold loans with an unpaid principal balance of $2.2 billion and $2.0 billion for the three months ended September�30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, for which we retained servicing rights.

As of September�30, 2023 and June�30, 2023, we serviced loans which we sold with a remaining unpaid principal balance of $4.3 billion and $4.1 billion, respectively.

We use discounted cash flow models to arrive at an estimate of fair value. Significant assumptions used in the valuation of our servicing rights are as follows:

Adequate Compensation

We estimate adequate compensation as the rate a willing market participant would require for servicing loans with similar characteristics as those in the serviced portfolio.�

Discount Rate

Estimated future payments to be received under servicing agreements are discounted as a part of determining the fair value of the servicing rights. For servicing rights on loans, the discount rate reflects the time value of money and a risk premium intended to reflect the amount of compensation market participants would require.

Gross Default Rate

We estimate the timing and probability of early loan payoffs, loan defaults and write-offs, thus affecting the projected unpaid principal balance and expected term of the loan, which are used to project future servicing revenue and expenses.

We earned $20.2 million and $21.4 million of servicing income for the three months ended September�30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

As of September�30, 2023 and June�30, 2023, the aggregate fair value of the servicing assets was measured at $0.6 million and $0.9 million, respectively, and presented within other assets on the interim condensed consolidated balance sheets. As of September�30, 2023 and June�30, 2023, the aggregate fair value of the servicing liabilities was measured at $1.9 million and $1.4 million, respectively, and presented within accrued expenses and other liabilities on the interim condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Performance Fee Liability

In accordance with our agreements with our originating bank partners, we pay a fee for each loan that is fully repaid by the consumer, due at the end of the period in which the loan is fully repaid. We recognize a liability upon the purchase of a loan for the expected future payment of the performance fee. This liability is measured using a discounted cash flow model and recorded at fair value and presented within accrued expenses and other liabilities on the interim condensed consolidated balance sheets. Any changes in the fair value of the liability are reflected in other income, net, on the interim condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.�

Any changes in the fair value of the liability are reflected in other income, net, on the interim condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.�

The following table summarizes the activity related to the fair value of the residual trust certificates held by third-parties (in thousands):

Three Months En ded September 30,

Fair value at beginning of period $ 125$ 377
Repayments (38) (99)
Subsequent changes in fair value 6 30
Fair value at end of period $ 93$ 308

Significant unobservable inputs used for our Level 3 fair value measurement of the residual trust certificates held by third-parties are the discount rate, loss rate, and prepayment rate. Significant increases or decreases in any of the inputs in isolation could result in a significantly lower or higher fair value measurement.

Retained Beneficial Interests in Unconsolidated VIEs

As of September�30, 2023, we held notes receivable and residual trust certificates with an aggregate fair value of $14.0 million in connection with unconsolidated securitizations. The balances correspond to the 5% economic risk retention we are required to maintain as the securitization sponsor.

These assets are measured at fair value using a discounted cash flow model, and presented within securities available for sale at fair value on the interim condensed consolidated balance sheets. Changes in the fair value, other than declines in fair value due to credit recognized as an allowance, are reflected in other comprehensive income (loss) on the interim condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. Declines in fair value due to credit are reflected in other income, net on the interim condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.

Profit Share Liability

On January�1, 2021, we entered into a commercial agreement with an enterprise partner, in which we are obligated to share in the profitability of transactions facilitated by our platform. Upon capture of a loan under this program, we record a liability associated with the estimated future profit to be shared over the life of the loan based on estimated program profitability levels. This liability is measured using a discounted cash flow model and recorded at fair value and presented within accrued expenses and other liabilities on the interim condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Risk Sharing Arrangements

In connection with certain capital funding arrangements with third party loan buyers, we have entered into risk sharing agreements where we may be required to make a payment to the loan buyer or are entitled to receive a payment from the loan buyer, depending on the actual versus expected loan performance as contractually agreed to with the counterparty, and subject to a cap based on a percentage of the principal balance of loans sold. Loan performance is evaluated at a cohort level based on the month loans were sold. Through September�30, 2023 we have sold $1.3 billion unpaid principal balance of loans under these risk sharing arrangements, of which our maximum exposure to losses is $27.1 million.This amount includes our maximum potential loss with respect to risk sharing liabilities and the fair value of risk sharing assets of $3.8 million, as of September�30, 2023.

We account for these arrangements as derivatives measured at fair value with gains and losses recognized in Gain on sale of loans in our interim condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. For each counterparty, we have recognized a net asset or net liability based on the estimated fair value of future payments we expect to receive from or make to the counterparty. As of September�30, 2023, we held assets and liabilities related to these arrangements of $3.8 million and $0.5 million, respectively. As of June�30, 2023, we estimated that the fair value of risk sharing liabilities was $0 based on the limited time passed and available loan performance since entering into these agreements. We did not have any risk sharing arrangements where we had recognized an asset as of June�30, 2023.

The common stock is not redeemable. We have two classes of common stock: Class A common stock and Class B common stock. Each holder of Class A common stock has the right to one vote per share of common stock. Each holder of Class B common stock has the right to 15 votes and can be converted at any time into one share of Class A common stock. Holders of Class A and Class B common stock are entitled to notice of any stockholders’ meeting in accordance with the bylaws of the corporation, and are entitled to vote upon such matters and in such manner as may be provided by law. Subject to the prior rights of holders of all classes of stock at the time outstanding having prior rights as to dividends, the holders of the common stock are entitled to receive, when and as declared by the Board of Directors, out of any assets of the corporation legally available therefore, such dividends as may be declared from time to time by the Board of Directors.

Common Stock Warrants

Common stock warrants are included as a component of additional paid in capital within the interim condensed consolidated balance sheets.

During the year ended June�30, 2022, we granted warrants to purchase 22,000,000 shares of common stock in connection with our commercial agreements with Amazon. 7,000,000 of the warrant shares have an exercise price of $0.01 per share and a term of 3.5 years, while the remaining 15,000,000 warrant shares have an exercise price of $100 per share and a term of 7.5 years. We valued the warrants at the grant date using the BlackScholes-Merton option pricing model with the following assumptions: a dividend yield of zero; years to maturity of 3.5 and 7.5

We recognized an asset of $133.5 million associated with the portion of the warrants that were fully vested at the grant date. Refer to Note 6. Balance Sheet Components for more information on the asset and related amortization during the period. The remaining grant-date fair value of the warrants will be recognized within our interim condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss as a component of sales and marketing expense as the warrants vest, based upon Amazon’s satisfaction of the vesting conditions. During the three months ended September�30, 2023 and 2022, a total of $106.3 million and $119.1 million, respectively, was recognized within sales and marketing expense which included $10.4 million in amortization expense of the commercial agreement asset for both periods and $95.9 million and $108.7 million, respectively, in expense based upon the grant-date fair value of the warrant shares that vested.

15.���Equity Incentive Plans

2012 Stock Plan

Under our Amended and Restated 2012 Stock Plan (the “Plan”), we may grant incentive and nonqualified stock options, restricted stock, and restricted stock units (“RSUs”) to employees, officers, directors, and consultants. As of September�30, 2023, the maximum number of shares of common stock which may be issued under the Plan is 161,051,508 Class A shares. As of September�30, 2023 and June�30, 2023, there were 47,162,302 and 37,245,232 shares of Class A common stock, respectively, available for future grants under the Plan.

Stock Options

For stock options granted before our IPO in January 2021, the minimum expiration period is seven years after termination of employment or 10 years from the date of grant. For stock options granted after our IPO, the minimum expiration period is three months after termination of employment or 10 years from the date of grant. Stock options generally vest over a period of four years or with 25% vesting on the 12 month anniversary of the vesting commencement date, and the remainder vesting on a pro-rata basis each month over the next three years.

The weighted-average grant date fair value of options granted during the three�months ended September�30, 2023 was $16.10. As of September�30, 2023, unrecognized compensation expense related to unvested stock options was approximately $56.1 million, which is expected to be recognized over a remaining weighted-average period of 2.7 years.

When an employee exercises stock options, we collect and remit taxes on the employee’s behalf to applicable taxing authorities. As of September�30, 2023 and June�30, 2023, the balance of equity exercise taxes payable was $5.8 million and $3.4 million, respectively, which is included in accounts payable on the interim condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Value Creation Award

In November 2020, in connection with an overall review of the compensation of Max Levchin, our Chief Executive Officer, in advance of the IPO, and taking into account Mr. Levchin’s leadership since the inception of the Company, the comparatively modest level of cash compensation he had received from the Company during his many years of service, and that he did not hold any unvested equity awards, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a long-term, multi-year performance-based stock option grant providing Mr. Levchin with the opportunity to earn the right to purchase up to 12,500,000 shares of the Company’s Class A common stock (the “Value Creation Award”). We recognize stock-based compensation on these awards based on the grant date fair value using an accelerated attribution method over the requisite service period, and only if performance-based conditions are considered probable of being satisfied. During the three months ended September�30, 2023 and 2022, we incurred stock-based compensation expense of $19.6 million and $27.5 million, respectively, associated with the Value Creation Award as a component of general and administrative expense within the interim condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.

As of September�30, 2023, unrecognized compensation expense related to the Value Creation Award was approximately $93.3�million, which is expected to be recognized over a remaining weighted-average period of 2.3 years.

Restricted Stock Units

RSUs granted prior to the IPO were subject to two vesting conditions: a service-based vesting condition (i.e., employment over a period of time) and a performance-based vesting condition (i.e., a liquidity event in the form of either a change of control or an initial public offering, each as defined in the Plan), both of which must be met in order to vest. The performance-based condition was met upon the IPO. We record stock-based compensation expense for those RSUs on an accelerated attribution method over the requisite service period, which is generally four years. RSUs granted after IPO are subject to a service-based vesting condition. We record stock-based compensation expense for service-based RSUs on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period, which is generally one to four years.

During the three months ended September 30, 2023, we modified the vesting terms of approximately 5,300 RSU grants that vested on a monthly basis. Pursuant to the modified vesting schedule, these RSU grants will now vest on a quarterly basis. During the three months ended September 30, 2023, we recorded a one-time expense of $28.1 million in connection with the transition to a quarterly vesting schedule.

2020 Employee Stock Purchase Plan

On November�18, 2020, our Board of Directors adopted and approved the 2020 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (“ESPP”). The purpose of the ESPP is to secure the services of new employees, to retain the services of existing employees and to provide incentives for such individuals to exert maximum effort towards the success of the Company and that of its affiliates. A total of 13.8 million shares of Class A common stock are reserved and available for issuance under the ESPP and 1.1 million shares have been issued as of September�30, 2023. The ESPP provides for six-month offering periods beginning December 1 and June 1 of each year. At the end of each offering period, shares of our Class A common stock are purchased on behalf of each ESPP participant at a price per share equal to 85% of the lesser of (1) the fair market value of the Class A common stock on first day of the offering period (the grant date) or (2) the fair market value of the Class A common stock on the last day of the offering period (the purchase date). We use the BlackScholes-Merton option pricing model to measure the fair value of the purchase rights issued under the ESPP at the first day of the offering period, which represents the grant date. We record stock-based compensation expense on a straight-line basis over each six-month offering period, the requisite service period of the award.

16.���Restructuring and other

On February�8, 2023, we committed to a restructuring plan (the “Plan”) designed to manage our operating expenses in response to current macroeconomic conditions and ongoing business prioritization efforts. As part of the Plan, we reduced our workforce by approximately 500 employees, representing approximately 19% of our employees and incurred lease exit costs related to vacating a portion of our San Francisco office.

Restructuring and other consisted of $1.7 million of employee severance pay and related costs for the three months ended September�30, 2023.

Our restructuring accrual activity for the three months ended September�30, 2023 is summarized as follows (in thousands):

Accrued restructuring costs, September30, 2023 $ 250$ 3,749

(1) Includes employee severance pay and related costs, contract cancellation charges, among other items, related to other exit and disposal activities

17.���Income Taxes

The quarterly provision for income taxes is based on the current estimate of the annual effective income tax rate and the tax effect of discrete items occurring during the quarter. Our quarterly provision and the estimate of the annual effective tax rate are subject to significant variation due to several factors, including variability in the pre-tax jurisdictional mix of earnings and the impact of discrete items.

For the three months ended September�30, 2023, we recorded income tax expense (benefit) of $1.0 million which was primarily attributable to deferred tax expense recognized by our Canadian subsidiary, various U.S state and other foreign income taxes, and the tax amortization of certain intangibles. For the three months ended September�30, 2022, we recorded income tax expense (benefit) of $(0.2) million which was primarily attributable to deferred tax benefits recognized by our Canadian subsidiary and partially offset by various U.S state and other foreign income taxes, as well as the tax amortization of certain intangibles.

As of September�30, 2023, we continue to recognize a full valuation allowance against our U.S. federal and state and certain foreign net deferred tax assets. This determination was based on the assessment of the available positive and negative evidence to estimate whether sufficient future taxable income will be generated to utilize the existing deferred tax assets. A significant piece of objective negative evidence evaluated was the cumulative loss incurred by us for the prior three fiscal years. The presence of a three-year cumulative loss limits the ability to consider other subjective evidence, such as our expectations of future taxable income and projections for growth.

As a result of the integration and consolidation of our PayBright business into and with Affirm’s Canadian business, the expansion of our overall business in Canada, and other objectively verifiable positive evidence available, all of which we have concluded is sufficient to outweigh the existing negative evidence – including the presence of a three-year cumulative loss attributable to the Canadian jurisdiction, we have determined that it is more likely than not that our Canadian deferred tax assets will be realized and a valuation allowance is not required.

Overview

We are building the next generation platform for digital and mobile-first commerce. We believe that by
using modern technology, the very best engineering talent, and a mission-driven approach, we can reinvent
payments and commerce. Our solutions, which are built on trust and transparency, make it easier for consumers to
spend responsibly and with confidence, easier for merchants to convert sales and grow, and easier for commerce to
thrive.
Our point-of-sale solution allows consumers to pay for purchases in fixed amounts without deferred
interest, hidden fees, or penalties. We empower consumers to pay over time rather than paying for a purchase
entirely upfront. This increases consumers’ purchasing power and gives them more control and flexibility. Our
platform facilitates both true 0% APR payment options and interest-bearing loans. On the merchant side, we offer
commerce enablement, demand generation, and customer acquisition tools. Our solutions empower merchants to
more efficiently promote and sell their products, optimize their customer acquisition strategies, and drive
incremental sales. We also provide valuable product-level data and insights — information that merchants cannot
easily get elsewhere — to better inform their strategies. Finally, our consumer app unlocks the full suite of Affirm
products for a delightful end-to-end consumer experience. Consumers can use our app to manage payments, open a
high-yield savings account, and access a personalized marketplace.
Our company is predicated on the principles of simplicity, transparency, and putting people first. By
adhering to these principles, we have built enduring, trust-based relationships with consumers and merchants that we
believe will set us up for long-term, sustainable success. We believe our innovative approach uniquely positions us
to define the future of commerce and payments.
Technology and data are at the core of everything we do. Our expertise in sourcing, aggregating, and
analyzing data has been what we believe to be the key competitive advantage of our platform since our founding.
We believe our proprietary technology platform and data give us a unique advantage in pricing risk. We use data to
inform our risk scoring in order to generate value for our consumers, merchants, and capital partners. We collect and
store petabytes of information that we carefully structure and use to regularly recalibrate and revalidate our models,
thereby getting to risk scoring and pricing faster, more efficiently, and with a higher degree of confidence. We also
prioritize building our own technology and investing in product and engineering talent as we believe these are
enduring competitive advantages that are difficult to replicate. Our solutions use the latest in machine learning,
artificial intelligence, cloud-based technologies, and other modern tools to create differentiated and scalable
products.
We have achieved significant growth in recent periods. Our total revenue, net was $870.5 million, $509.5
million, and $264.4 million for the years ended June 30, 2021, 2020, and 2019 respectively. We incurred net losses

APPENDIX III MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF AFFIRM

of $430.9 million, $112.6 million, and$120.5 million for the years ended June 30, 2021, 2020, and 2019
respectively.
The combination of our differentiated product offering, efficient go-to-market strategy, and strong
monetization engine has resulted in rapid growth.
  • Accelerating GMV growth. We grew our Gross Merchandise Volume ("GMV") by 79% year-over-year to $8.3 billion during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2021. During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2020, GMV was $4.6 billion, which represented 77% growth over the fiscal year ended June 30, 2019.

  • Increased consumer engagement. The number of active consumers on our platform grew by 3.5 million consumers from June 30, 2020 to June 30, 2021, an increase of 97% to a total of 7.1 million.

  • Expanded merchant network. We have also continued to scale the breadth and reach of our platform. From June 30, 2020 to June 30, 2021, our merchant base expanded by 412% to 28,995 active merchants.

  • Compelling network revenue growth. Network revenue, which combines merchant network revenue and virtual card network revenue, increased 56% year-over-year compared to the year ended June 30, 2020. We believe that the continued growth of network revenue demonstrates the value of our platform to our merchants.

Our business was designed to scale efficiently. Our partnerships with banks and other funding relationships
have allowed us to remain equity capital efficient. Since July 1, 2016, we have processed approximately $17.5
billion of GMV on our platform. As of June 30, 2021, we had over $6.5 billion in funding capacity from a diverse
set of capital partners, including through our warehouse facilities, securitization trusts, and forward flow
arrangements, an increase of $3.2 billion from $3.3 billion as of June 30, 2020.
Through the diversity of these funding relationships, the equity capital required to build our total platform
portfolio has declined from approximately 9% of the total platform portfolio as of June 30, 2020, to approximately
4% as of June 30, 2021. We define our total platform portfolio as the unpaid principal balance outstanding of all
loans facilitated through our platform as of the balance sheet date, including both those loans held for investment
and those loans owned by third-parties. This amount totaled $4.7 billion and $2.5 billion as of June 30, 2021 and
June 30, 2020, respectively. Additionally, we define the equity capital required as the balance of loans held for
investment, plus loans held for sale, less funding debt and notes issued by securitization trusts, per our consolidated
balance sheet. This amount totaled $178.1 million and $220.8 million as of June 30, 2021 and June 30, 2020,
respectively. Equity capital required as a percent of the last twelve months' GMV was 2% and 5% as of June 30,
2021 and June 30, 2020, respectively.
We have focused on growing our platform and plan to continue making investments to drive future growth,
as evidenced by our strategic acquisitions. In January 2021, we acquired PayBright, one of Canada's leading
providers of installment payment plans for e-commerce and in-store purchases, to expand the scale and reach of our
platform, creating a larger, more diverse merchant and consumer network across the United States and Canada. In
May 2021, we acquired Returnly, a leader in online return experiences and post-purchase payments, to expand the
capabilities of our platform and address the full shopping journey by enabling seamless return experiences that drive
customer loyalty and satisfaction.
We believe that our continued success will depend on many factors, including our ability toattract
additional merchant partners, retain our existing merchant partners, and grow and develop our relationships with
new and existing merchant partners (including ourrelationship with Amazon), help our merchants grow their
revenue on our platform, and develop new innovative solutions to establish the ubiquity of our network and breadth
of our platform.For a further discussion of trends, uncertainties and other factors that could impact our operating
results, see the section entitled "Risk Factors" in Item 1A, which is incorporated herein by reference.

APPENDIX III MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF AFFIRM

Our Financial Model

Our Revenue Model

From merchants, we earn a fee when we help them convert a sale and facilitate a transaction. While
merchant fees depend on the individual arrangement between us and each merchant, and vary based on the terms of
the product offering, we generally earn larger merchant fees on 0% APR financing products and financial products
with longer term lengths. For the years ended June 30, 2021, 2020, and 2019, 0% APR financing represented 43%,
43%, and 33%, respectively, of total GMV facilitated through our platform.
From consumers, we earn interest income on the simple interest loans that we purchase from our
originating bank partners. Interest rates charged to our consumers vary depending on the transaction risk,
creditworthiness of the consumer, the repayment term selected by the consumer, the amount of the loan, and the
individual arrangement with a merchant. Because our consumers are never charged deferred or compounding
interest, late fees, or penalties on the loans, we are not incentivized to profit from our consumers’ hardships.
In order to accelerate our ubiquity, we facilitate the issuance of virtual cards directly to consumers through
our app, allowing them to shop with merchants that may not yet be fully integrated with Affirm. When these virtual
cards are used over established card networks, we earn a portion of the interchange fee from the transaction.

Our Loan Origination and Servicing Model

When a consumer applies for a loan through our platform, the loan is underwritten using our proprietary
risk model. Once approved for the loan, the consumer then selects his/her preferred repayment option. The
substantial majority of these loans are funded and issued by our originating bank partners.
A substantial majority of the loans facilitated through our platform are originated through our originating
bank partners: Cross River Bank, an FDIC-insured New Jersey state-chartered bank, and Celtic Bank, an FDIC-
insured Utah state-chartered industrial bank. These partnerships allow us to benefit from our partners' ability to
originate loans under their banking licenses while complying with various federal, state, and other laws. Under this
arrangement, we must comply with our originating bank partners' credit policies and underwriting procedures, and
our originating bank partners maintain ultimate authority to decide whether to originate a loan. When an originating
bank partner originates a loan, it funds the loan out of its own funds and may subsequently offer and sell the loan to
us. Pursuant to our agreements with these partners, we are obligated to purchase the loans facilitated through our
platform that our partner offers us and our obligation is secured by cash deposits. To date, we have purchased all of
the loans facilitated through our platform and originated by our originating bank partners. When we purchase a loan
from an originating bank partner, the purchase price is equal to the outstanding principal balance of the loan, plus a
fee and any accrued interest. The originating bank partner also retains an interest in the loans purchased by us
through a loan performance fee that is payable by us on the aggregate principal amount of a loan that is paid by a
consumer. See Note 13. Fair Value of Financial Assets and Liabilities for more information on the performance fee
liability.
We are also able to originate loans directly under our lending, servicing, and brokering licenses in Canada
and across various states in the U.S. through our consolidated subsidiaries. We started originating loans directly in
Canada in October 2019 and, through June 30, 2021, we had originated approximately $257.7 million of loans in
Canada. As of June 30, 2021, we had directly originated $336.1 million of loans in the U.S. pursuant to our state
licenses.
We act as the servicer on all loans that we originate directly or purchase from our originating bank partners
and earn a servicing fee on loans we sell to our funding sources. We do not sell the servicing rights on any of the
loans, allowing us to control the consumer experience end-to-end. To allow for flexible staffing to support overflow
and seasonal traffic, we partner with several sub-servicers to manage customer care, first priority collections, and
third-party collections in accordance with our policies and procedures.

76 – III-4 –

APPENDIX III MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF AFFIRM

Our Funding Sources

We maintain a capital-efficient model through a diverse set of funding sources. When we originate a loan
directly or purchase a loan originated by our originating bank partners, we often utilize warehouse facilities with
certain lenders to finance our lending activities or loan purchases. We sell the loans we originate or purchase from
our originating bank partners to whole loan buyers and securitization investors through forward flow arrangements
and securitization transactions, and earn servicing fees from continuing to act as the servicer on the loans.

Key Operating Metrics

We collect and analyze operating and financial data of our business to assess our performance, formulate
financial projections, and make strategic decisions. In addition to revenue, net (loss) income, and other results under
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”), the following tables set forth key
operating metrics we use to evaluate our business.

GMV

We measure gross merchandise volume to assess the volume of transactions that take place on our platform.
We define GMV as the total dollar amount of all transactions on the Affirm platform during the applicable period,
net of refunds. GMV does not represent revenue earned by us. However, the GMV processed through our platform
is an indicator of the success of our merchants, value provided to our consumers, and the strength of our platform.
For the year ended June 30, 2021, GMV was $8.3 billion, which represented an increase of approximately 79% as
compared to $4.6 billion for the year ended June 30, 2020. For the year ended June 30, 2020, GMV was $4.6 billion,
which represented an increase of approximately 77% as compared to $2.6 billion for the fiscal year ended June 30,
2019. Our acquisitions of PayBright and Returnly contributed an incremental $153.8 million of GMV during the

Active Consumers

We assess consumer adoption and engagement by the number of active consumers across our platform.
Active consumers are the primary measure of the size of our network. We define an active consumer as a consumer
who engages in at least one transaction on our platform during the twelve months prior to the measurement date. As
of June 30, 2021, we had 7.1 million active consumers, representing an increase of approximately 97% compared to
3.6 million as of June 30, 2020, and approximately 77% compared to 2.0 million at June 30, 2019. Active consumers
include an incremental 1.1 million consumers who engaged in at least one transaction on the PayBright or Returnly
platforms during the twelve months prior to the measurement date, including prior to the acquisitions of PayBright
and Returnly by Affirm.

Transactions per Active Consumer

We believe the value of our network is amplified with greater consumer engagement and repeat usage,
highlighted by increased transactions per active consumer. Transactions per active consumer is defined as the
average number of transactions that an active consumer has conducted on our platform during the twelve months
77

– III-5 –

APPENDIX III MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF AFFIRM

prior to the measurement date. As of June 30, 2021, we had approximately 2.3 transactions per active consumer,
representing an increase of 8% as compared to 2.1 as of June 30, 2020 and an increase of 13% compared to June 30,
2019. Transactions per active consumer includes incremental transactions completed by active consumers on the
PayBright or Returnly platforms during the twelve months prior to the measurement date and prior to the
acquisitions of PayBright and Returnly by Affirm.

Factors Affecting Our Performance

Expanding our Network, Diversity, and Mix of Funding Relationships

Our capital efficient funding model is integral to the success of our platform. As we scale the number of
transactions on our network and grow GMV, we maintain a variety of funding relationships in order to support our
network. Our diversified funding relationships include warehouse facilities, securitization trusts, forward flow
arrangements, and partnerships with banks. Given the short duration and strong performance of our assets, funding
can be recycled quickly, resulting in a high-velocity, capital efficient funding model. We have continued to reduce
the percentage of our equity capital required to fund our total platform portfolio from approximately 9% as of
June 30, 2020, to approximately 4% as of June 30, 2021. The mix of on-balance sheet and off-balance sheet funding
will also impact our results in any given period.

Mix of Business on Our Platform

The mix of products that our merchants offer and our consumers purchase in any period affects our
operating results. The mix impacts GMV, revenue, and the financial results of that period. Differences in product
mix relate to different loan durations, APR mix, and varying proportion of 0% APR versus interest-bearing
financings. For example, our low AOV products generally benefit from shorter duration, but also have lower
revenue as a percentage of GMV when compared to high AOV products. These mix shifts are driven in part by
merchant-side activity relating to the marketing of their products, whether the merchant is fully integrated within our
network, and general economic conditions affecting consumer demand. In addition, we expect that our commercial
agreement with Shopify to offer Shop Pay Installments powered by Affirm and our recent Split Pay offering, a
short-term payment plan for purchases under $250 with 0% APR, will increase the mix of our shorter duration, low
AOV products. Differences in the mix of high versus low AOV will also impact our results. For example, we expect
that transactions per active consumer may increase while revenue as a percentage of GMV may decline in the
medium term to the extent that a greater portion of our GMV comes from Split Pay and other low-AOV offerings.

Sales and Marketing Investment

We have historically relied on the strength of our merchant relationships and positive user experience to
develop our consumer brand and grow the ubiquity of our platform. During the year ended June 30, 2021, we
increased our investment in sales and marketing channels that we believe will drive further brand awareness and
preference among both consumers and merchants. Given the nature of our revenue, our investment in sales and
marketing in a given period may not impact results until subsequent periods. Additionally, given the increasingly
competitive nature of merchant acquisition, we expect that we may make significant investments in retaining and
acquiring new merchants. We are focused on the effectiveness of sales and marketing spending and will continue to
be strategic in maintaining efficient consumer and merchant acquisition.

Seasonality

We experience seasonal fluctuations in our revenue as a result of consumer spending patterns. Historically,
our revenue has been the strongest during the second quarter of our fiscal year due to increases in retail commerce
during the holiday season. Additionally, revenue associated with the purchase of home fitness equipment historically
has been strongest in the third quarter of our fiscal year. Adverse events that occur during these months could have a
disproportionate effect on our financial results for the fiscal year.
78

– III-6 –

APPENDIX III MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF AFFIRM

Timing of Merchant Transaction Recognition Change

The timing of our revenue recognition is tied to when a merchant captures payment and confirms a
transaction financed through our platform, which we refer to as the merchant capture date. If a merchant recognizes
the payment collection and confirms the transaction later in their transaction process, we expect that this change
would delay the merchant capture date, which would delay our recognition of GMV and revenue related to that
merchant’s transactions by a corresponding amount. Such a delay would adversely affect the GMV and revenue that
we recognize from such merchant’s transactions in the quarterly period of such change, as the merchant capture date
for a portion of such transactions would shift to a future quarterly period. We typically experience small timing
differences between the consumer purchase date and the date when a merchant captures payment; however, these
differences have historically been immaterial.
In December 2020, the implementation of such a change began with respect to our largest merchant,
Peloton, who implemented a change in the timing of when the transaction is considered captured. This resulted in a
delay in the recognition of GMV and revenue related to these transactions in the period ended December 31, 2020.
For the year ended June 30, 2021, we facilitated $66.3 million more transaction volume on our platform
than was captured and confirmed by our merchants, an increase of $54.1 million from the year ended June 30, 2020,
during which we facilitated $12.2 million more transaction volume than was captured and confirmed by our
merchants. As of June 30, 2021 and over the multi-year life of our merchant partnership with Peloton, we had
facilitated approximately $73.5 million more transaction volume than had been captured and confirmed by the
merchant. This is an increase of $73.5 million from June 30, 2020 and an increase of $7.8 million from March 31,
2021.
For more information on factors affecting our performance, see “Item 1A. Risk Factors.”

Impact of COVID-19

The COVID-19 pandemic has had, and continues to have, a significant impact on the U.S. economy and the
markets in which we operate. Our positive performance during this period demonstrates the value and effectiveness
of our platform, the resiliency of our business model, and the capabilities of our risk management and underwriting
approach. However, some of the COVID-19 related trends underlying this positive performance, in particular the
significant revenue generated from certain types of merchants, may not continue at current levels.

Diversified Mix of Merchant Partners

We have a diversified set of merchant partners across industries, which allows us to capitalize on industry
tailwinds and changing consumer spending behavior, economic conditions, and other factors that may affect a
particular type of merchant or industry. For example, following the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, our revenue
from merchant partners in the travel, hospitality, and entertainment industries declined significantly, but we saw a
significant increase in revenue from merchant partners offering home fitness equipment, home office products, and
home furnishings. While we have benefited as a result of such consumer spending trends, there can be no assurance
that such trends will continue or that the levels of total revenue and merchant network revenue that we generate from
merchants in fitness equipment, home office products, and home furnishings industries will continue; in fact, we
have begun to see these trends begin to reverse as access to COVID-19 vaccinations has increased. The decline of
sales by our merchants for any reason will generally result in lower credit sales and, therefore, lower loan volume
and associated fee income for us. However, the beginnings of economic reopening and recovery present new
opportunities for growth in our diverse merchant base, including early indications of strong recovery in the travel
and hospitality sectors, in which we believe we are well positioned.

Dynamic Changes to Risk Model

As part of our risk mitigation platform, we closely track data and trends to measure risk and manage
exposure, leveraging our flexibility to quickly adjust and adapt. In response to the macroeconomic impact of the
COVID-19 pandemic, we initiated a series of refinements to our risk model based on our real-time data observations
79

– III-7 –

APPENDIX III MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF AFFIRM

and analysis. We were able to respond, implement, and test the updates to our model quickly due to the adaptability
of our infrastructure, underwriting, and risk management models. This resulted in decreases across both charge-offs
and delinquencies. As macroeconomic conditions improved, the embedded flexibility of the model allowed our risk
tolerances to return closer to pre-pandemic levels while still maintaining low losses. Our proprietary risk model was
not designed to take into account the longer-term impacts of social, economic, and financial disruptions caused by
the COVID-19 pandemic, and while we continue to make refinements to our risk model as new information
becomes available to us, any changes to our risk model may be ineffective and the performance of our risk model
may decline.

Resilient Allowance Model

At the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic in March 2020, we factored in updated loss multiples using
macroeconomic data to reflect stressed expected loss scenarios emerging from forecasted delinquencies and defaults.
This stressing of the model resulted in an increase of the allowance for credit losses as a percentage of loans held for
investment from 8.9% as of February 29, 2020 to 14.8% as of March 31, 2020. In the months subsequent to this, we
have seen stronger than expected repayment history in the portfolio, resulting in a release of the allowance. As of
June 30, 2021 and June 30, 2020, the allowance for credit losses as a percentage of loans held for investment was
6% and 9%, respectively. Our allowance for credit losses has declined as a percentage of loans held for investment
as we retained a higher portion of longer-term, 0% APR loans on our balance sheet since completing our
consolidated2020-Z1 and 2020-Z2 securitizations during the year ended June 30, 2021. These longer-term, 0% APR
loans tend to have lower expected losses than our interest bearing loans and generally carry lower loss reserves as a
percentage of initial principal balance. Additionally, improved macroeconomic conditions have resulted in an overall
improved credit outlook and reduced expected losses. Should macroeconomic factors or expected losses change, we
may increase or decrease the allowance for credit losses.
For more information on the risks related to the COVID-19 pandemic, see “Item 1A. Risk Factors — Risks
Related to Our Business and Industry.”

Components of Results of Operations

Revenue

Merchant Network Revenue

Merchant partners are charged a fee on transactions processed through the Affirm platform. The fees vary
depending on the individual arrangement between us and each merchant and on the terms of the product offering.
The fee is recognized at the point in time the terms of the executed merchant agreement have been fulfilled and the
merchant successfully confirms the transaction. We may originate certain loans via our wholly-owned subsidiaries,
with zero or below market interest rates. In these instances, the par value of the loans originated is in excess of the
fair market value of such loans, resulting in a loss, which we record as a reduction to merchant network revenue
when we estimate that these losses will be recoverable over the term of our contract with the merchant. In order to
continue to expand our consumer base, we may originate loans under certain merchant arrangements that we do not
expect to achieve positive revenue. In these instances, the loss is recorded as sales and marketing expense. During
the years ended June 30, 2021, 2020, and 2019, we generated 44%, 50% and 50% of our revenue, respectively, from
merchant network fees.

Virtual Card Network Revenue

A smaller portion of our revenue comes from our Virtual Card product. We have agreements with issuer
processors to facilitate transactions through the issuance of virtual debit cards to be used by consumers at checkout.
Consumers can apply for a virtual debit card through the Affirm app and, upon approval, receive a single-use virtual
debit card to be used for their purchase online or offline at a non-integrated merchant. The virtual debit card is
funded at the time a transaction is authorized using cash held by the issuer processor in a reserve fund, which is
ultimately funded and maintained by us. Our originating bank partner then originates a loan to the consumer once
the transaction is confirmed by the merchant. The non-integrated merchants are charged interchange fees by the
80

– III-8 –

APPENDIX III MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF AFFIRM

issuer processor for virtual debit card transactions, as with all debit card purchases, and the issuer processor shares a
portion of this revenue with us. We also leverage this issuer processor as a means of integrating certain merchants.
Similarly, for these arrangements with integrated merchants, the merchant is charged interchange fees by the issuer
processor and the issuer processor shares a portion of this revenue with us. This revenue is recognized as
a percentage of both our loan volume transacted on the payment processor network and net interchange income, and
this revenue is presented net of associated processing fees. We generated 6%, 4%, and 3% of our revenue from
virtual card network fees for the years ended June 30, 2021, 2020, and 2019, respectively.

Interest Income

We also earn revenue through interest earned on loans facilitated by our platform. Interest income includes
interest charged to consumers over the term of the consumers’ loans based on the principal outstanding and is
calculated using the effective interest method. In addition, interest income includes the amortization of any discounts
or premiums on loan receivables created upon either the purchase of a loan from our originating bank partners or the
origination of a loan. These discounts and premiums are accreted or amortized over the life of the loan using the
effective interest method and represented 31%, 19%, and 18% of total interest income for the years ended June 30,
2021, 2020, and 2019, respectively. During the years ended June 30, 2021, 2020, and 2019, we generated 37%,
37%, and 45% of our revenue from interest income, respectively.

Gain on Sales of Loans

We sell a portion of the loans we originate or purchase from our originating bank partners to third-party
investors. We recognize a gain or loss on sale of such loans as the difference between the proceeds received,
adjusted for initial recognition of servicing assets and liabilities obtained at the date of sale, and the carrying value of
the loan. During the years ended June 30, 2021, 2020, and 2019, we generated 10%, 6% and 0% of our revenue from
gain (loss) on sales of loans, respectively.

Servicing Income

We earn a specified fee from providing professional services to manage loan portfolios on behalf of our
third-party loan owners. Under the servicing agreements with our capital markets partners, we are entitled to collect
servicing fees on the loans that we service, which are paid monthly based upon an annual fixed percentage of the
outstanding loan portfolio balance. During the years ended June 30, 2021, 2020, and 2019, we generated 3%, 3%,
and 2% of our revenue from servicing fees, respectively.
We expect our revenue may vary from period to period based on, among other things, the timing and size
of onboarding of new merchants, the mix of 0% APR loans versus interest-bearing loans with simple interest, type
and mix of products that our merchants offer to their customers, the rate of repeat transactions, transaction volume,
and seasonality of or fluctuations in usage of our platform.

Operating Expenses

Our operating expenses consist of the loss on loan purchase commitment made to our originating bank
partners, the provision for credit losses, funding costs, processing and servicing, technology and data analytics, sales
and marketing, and general and administrative expenses. Salaries and personnel-related costs, including benefits,
bonuses, and stock-based compensation expense, comprise a significant component of several of these expense
categories. An allocation of overhead, such as rent and other occupancy expenses, is based on employee headcount
and included in processing and servicing, technology and data analytics, sales and marketing, and general and
administrative expenses.
As of June 30, 2021, we had 1,641 employees, compared to 893 employees as of June 30, 2020. We
increased our headcount and personnel related costs across our business in order to support our growth strategy. We
expect headcount to continue to increase during fiscal year 2022 given our focus on growth and expansion.

APPENDIX III MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF AFFIRM

Loss on Loan Purchase Commitment

We purchase certain loans from our originating bank partners that are processed through our platform and
our originating bank partner puts back to us. Under the terms of the agreements with our originating bank partners,
we are generally required to pay the principal amount plus accrued interest for such loans. In certain instances, our
originating bank partners may originate loans with zero or below market interest rates that we are required to
purchase. In these instances, we may be required to purchase the loan for a price in excess of the fair market value of
such loans, which results in a loss. These losses are recognized as loss on loan purchase commitment in our
consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. These costs are incurred on a per loan basis.
Provision for Credit Losses
Provision for credit losses consists of amounts charged against income during the period to maintain an
allowance for credit losses. Our allowance for credit losses represents our estimate of the credit losses inherent in
our loans held for investment and is based on a variety of factors, including the composition and quality of the
portfolio, loan specific information gathered through our collection efforts, current economic conditions, and our
historical net charge-off and loss experience. These costs are incurred on a per loan basis.

Funding Costs

Funding costs consist of the interest expense we incur on our borrowings and amortization of fees and other
costs incurred in connection with funding the purchase and origination of loans. Excluding the amortization of debt
issuance costs, which totaled $6.4 million, $2.3 million, and $1.7 million for the years ended June 30, 2021, 2020,
and 2019, respectively, we incur an expense per loan pledged to our debt funding sources.

Processing and Servicing

Processing and servicing expense consists primarily of payment processing fees, third-party customer
support and collection expense salaries and personnel-related costs of our customer care team, and allocated
overhead. Payment processing costs are primarily driven by the number and dollar value of consumer repayments
which grow as the number of transactions and GMV processed on our platform increases. Customer care loan
servicing costs are primarily staffing costs related to third-party and in-house loan servicing agents, the demand for
which generally increases with the number of transactions on our platform. Collection fees are fees paid to agencies
as percentages of the dollars of repayment they recuperate from borrowers whose loans had previously been charged
off. Processing and servicing expenses are predominantly per transaction processing fees and third-party staffing
fees that generally increase with consumer contact.

Technology and Data Analytics

Technology and data analytics expense consists primarily of the salaries, stock-based compensation, and
personnel-related costs of our engineering and product employees as well as our credit and analytics employees who
develop our proprietary risk model, and totaled $182.2 million, $75.8 million, and $53.2 million for the years ended
June 30, 2021, 2020, and 2019, respectively.
Additionally, for the years ended June 30, 2021, 2020, and 2019, $29.0 million, $17.1 million, and $12.6
million, respectively, of salaries and personnel costs that relate to the development of internal-use software were
capitalized into property, equipment and software, net on the consolidated balance sheets, and amortized into
technology and data analytics expense over the useful life of the internal-use software. This amortization expense
totaled $10.3 million, $5.5 million, and $2.9 million for the years ended June 30, 2021, 2020, and 2019, respectively.
Additional technology and data analytics expenses include platform infrastructure and hosting costs, third-party data
acquisition expenses, and expenses related to the maintenance of existing technology assets and our technology
platform as a whole.

82 – III-10 –

APPENDIX III MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF AFFIRM

Sales and Marketing

Sales and marketing expense consists primarily of salaries and personnel-related costs, as well as costs of
general marketing and promotional activities, promotional event programs, sponsorships, and allocated overhead. In
July 2020, we recognized an asset in connection with a commercial agreement with Shopify in which we granted
warrants in exchange for their promotion of the Affirm platform with potential new merchant partners. This asset
represents the probable future economic benefit to be realized over the four-year expected benefit period and is
valued based on the fair value of the warrants at the grant date. This value is amortized on a straight-line basis over
the four-year expected benefit period into sales and marketing expense, due to the nature of the expected benefit.
Additionally, in order to continue to expand our consumer base, we may originate certain loans via our
wholly-owned subsidiaries with zero or below market interest rates under certain merchant arrangements that we do
not expect to achieve positive revenue. In these instances, losses measured as the difference between the par value
and fair market value of such loans are recorded as a sales and marketing expense when the loans are originated.
These losses are recorded as sales and marketing expense. These losses totaled $1.7 million during the year ended
June 30, 2021. We expect that our sales and marketing expense will increase as a percentage of revenue as we
expand our sales and marketing efforts to drive our growth, expansion, and diversification.

General and Administrative

General and administrative expenses consist primarily of expenses related to our finance, legal, risk
operations, human resources, and administrative personnel. General and administrative expenses also include costs
related to fees paid for professional services, including legal, tax and accounting services, and allocated overhead.
We expect to incur additional expenses as a result of operating as a public company, including costs to
comply with the rules and regulations applicable to companies listed on a national securities exchange, costs related
to compliance and reporting obligations pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC, and increased expenses for
insurance, investor relations, and professional services. We expect that our general and administrativeexpense will
increase in absolute dollars as our business grows.

Other Income and Expenses

Other Income (Expense), Net

Other income (expense), net consists of interest earned on our money market funds included in cash and
cash equivalents and restricted cash, gains and losses incurred on both our constant maturity swaps and as related to
bifurcated derivatives associated with our convertible debt, and fair value adjustments resulting from changes in the
fair value of our contingent consideration liability.

Income Tax (Benefit) Expense

Our income tax (benefit) expense consists of U.S. federal and state income taxes and Canadian federal and
provincial income taxes. Through June 30, 2021, we had not been required to pay any material U.S. federal, state, or
foreign income taxes due to accumulated net operating losses.

(1) Upon purchase of a loan from our originating bank partners at a price above the fair market value of the
loan or upon the origination of a loan with a par value in excess of the fair market value of the loan, a discount is
included in the amortized cost basis of the loan. For loans held for investment, this discount is amortized over the
life of the loan into interest income. When a loan is sold to a third-party loan buyer, the unamortized discount is
released in full at the time of sale and recognized as part of the gain or loss on sales of loans. However, the
cumulative value of the loss on loan purchase commitment or loss on origination, the interest income recognized
over time from the amortization of discount while retained, and the release of discount into gain (loss) on sales of

Total Revenue, net for the year ended June 30, 2021 increased by $360.9 million or 71%, compared to the
year ended June 30, 2020, primarily due to an increase of $3,654.8 million or 79% in GMV on our platform, from
$4,637.2 million for the year ended June 30, 2020 to $8,292.0 million for the year ended June 30, 2021. This
increase in GMV was driven by the strong network effects of the expansion of our active merchant base from 5,664
as of June 30, 2020 to 28,995 as of June 30, 2021, growth in active consumers from 3.6 million as of June 30, 2020
to 7.1 million as of June 30, 2021, and an increase in average transactions per consumer from 2.1 as of June 30,
2020 to 2.3 as of June 30, 2021.

APPENDIX III MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF AFFIRM

Merchant network revenue for the year ended June 30, 2021 increased by $122.8 million or 48%, compared
to the year ended June 30, 2020. Merchant network revenue as a percentage of GMV for the year ended June 30,
2021 decreased to 4.6% compared to 5.5% for the year ended June 30, 2020.
Merchant network revenue growth is generally correlated with both GMV growth and the mix of loans on
our platform as different loan characteristics are positively or negatively correlated with merchant fee revenue as a
percentage of GMV. In particular, merchant network revenue as a percentage of GMV typically increases with the
term length and average order value of our loans ("AOV"), and typically decreases in higher APR loans.
Specifically, 0% APR loans typically carry higher merchant fees as a percentage of GMV. The increases in
merchant network revenue during the year ended June 30, 2021 were primarily driven by growth in GMV, partially
offset by reductions in average term length and AOV. For both the years ended June 30, 2021 and June 30, 2020,
0% APR loans accounted for 43% of our total GMV. For the year ended June 30, 2021, loans with a term length
greater than 12 months accounted for 29% of GMV, compared with 34% for the year ended June 30, 2020. AOV
was lower at $550 for the year ended June 30, 2021, compared to $609 for the year ended June 30, 2020.
These increases were partially offset by a reduction of merchant network revenue of $11.4 million for the
year ended June 30, 2021 associated with the creation of discounts on self-originated loans with a par value in
excess of the fair value of such loans. These discounts on certain self-originated loans are amortized into interest
income over the life of the loan and were not incurred during the year ended June 30, 2020.
Additionally, during the third fiscal quarter of 2021, we recorded a reduction of merchant network revenue
of $3.1 million associated with estimated merchant fees previously earned on the facilitation of transactions related
to products involved in a recall announced by our largest merchant partner, Peloton. This estimate was derived in
part based on estimates of return rates provided by Peloton for the quarter ended March 31, 2021, in its Form 10-Q.
Based on actual return activity observed, we recorded a further reduction of merchant network revenue of $2.3
million during the fourth fiscal quarter, bringing the total reduction of merchant network revenue associated with the
recall to $5.4 million for the year ended June 30, 2021.
Virtual card network revenue for the year ended June 30, 2021 increased by $30.5 million or 158%,
compared to the year ended June 30, 2020. This increase was driven by an increase in GMV processed through our
issuer processor of 148% for the year ended June 30, 2021 due to increased activity on our virtual card-enabled
mobile application and growth in existing and new merchants integrated using our virtual card platform, as well as
improved economics with our virtual card issuer processor partner.
Interest income for the year ended June 30, 2021 increased by $139.7 million or 75%, compared to the year
ended June 30, 2020. Generally, interest income is correlated with the changes in the average balance of loans held
for investment, as we recognize interest on loans held for investment using the effective interest method over the life
of the loan. The average balance of loans held for investment increased by 87% to $1,710.9 million for the year
ended June 30, 2021, compared to the same periods in the prior fiscal year.
As a percentage of average loans held for investment, total interest income decreased slightly from
approximately 20% during the year ended June 30, 2020 to 19% during the year ended June 30, 2021. This change
was driven by an increase in the average proportion of 0% APR loans being held on our consolidated balance sheet
as a percentage of the total loans held for investment, which increased from 29% during the year ended June 30,
2020, compared to 46% during the year ended June 30, 2021. The shift was largely due to strong volume of longer-
term 0% APR loans as well as short-term Split Pay loans being held for investment and the addition of our 0% APR
2020-Z1 and 2020-Z2 consolidated securitizations.

86 – III-14 –

APPENDIX III MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF AFFIRM

While we do recognize interest income on 0% APR loans via the amortization of the loan discount, this is
generally earned at a lower rate than consumer interest on interest-bearing loans. The total amortization of discounts
on loans held for investment increased by $65.8 million or 187%, for the year ended June 30, 2021, compared with
the year ended June 30, 2020, and represented 31% of total interest income for the year ended June 30, 2021,
compared to 19% for the year ended June 30, 2020. This increase included the amortization of discounts arising
from self-originated loans held for investment of $18.2 million during the year ended June 30, 2021, which was nil
for the year ended June 30, 2020.
Gain (loss) on sales of loans for the year ended June 30, 2021 increased by $58.0 million or 182%,
compared to the year ended June 30, 2020. We sold loans with an unpaid balance of $3,232.9 million for the year
ended June 30, 2021 and $2,664.4 million for the year ended June 30, 2020, for which we retained servicing rights.
This increase was primarily due to higher loan sale volume, favorable loan sale pricing terms, and optimizing the
allocation of loans to loan buyers with higher pricing terms.
Servicing income for the year ended June 30, 2021 increased by$9.9 millionor67%, compared to the year
endedJune 30, 2020. Thisincreasewas primarily due to an increase in the average unpaid principal balance of loans
owned by third-party loan owners and increases in negotiated servicing rates with new and existing third-party loan
owners. Additionally, during the year ended June 30, 2020, we recognized a reduction of servicing income of $1.0
million related to the changes in fair value of servicing assets and liabilities compared with an addition to servicing
income of $1.5 million during the year ended June 30, 2021.

purchased above fair market value, primarily as a result of an increase in purchases of 0% APR loans from our
originating bank partners during the period. During the year ended June 30, 2021, we purchased $7.9 billion of loan
receivables from our originating bank partners, representing an increase of $3.2 billion or 68%, compared to the year

Provision for credit losses generally represents the amount of expense required to maintain the allowance
for credit losses on our consolidated balance sheet, which represents management’s estimate of future losses. In the
event that our loans outperform expectation and/or we reduce our expectation of credit losses in future periods, we
may release reserves and thereby reduce the allowance for credit losses, yielding income in the provision for credit
losses. The provision is determined by the change in estimates for future losses and the net charge-offs incurred in
the period. We record provision expense for each loan we retain as loans held for investment, whether we originate
the loan or purchase it from one of our originating bank partners.
At the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic in March 2020, we factored in updated loss multiples using
macroeconomic data to reflect stressed expected loss scenarios emerging from forecasted delinquencies and defaults.
This stressing of the model resulted in an increase of the allowance for credit losses up to 14.6% at its peak as of
March 31, 2020. In the months subsequent to this, we have seen stronger than expected repayment history in the
portfolio, resulting in a release of the allowance over time. While the allowance for credit losses increased by 24%
compared to June 30, 2020, the balance of loans held for investment increased 96% compared to the prior period. As
of June 30, 2021, the allowance for credit losses as a percentage of loans held for investment decreased to 5.8%,
compared to 9.2% as of June 30, 2020.
This decrease in the allowance for credit losses as a percentage of loans held for investment over time was
due to a combination of factors. Firstly, continued stronger than expected repayment performance of the portfolio
accounted for a decrease of 62% in our net charge-offs as a percentage of our average loans held for investment to
3.0%, compared with 7.9% for the year ended June 30, 2020. Secondly, we began transitioning to a new underlying
data model which incorporates internal improvements to our underwriting and collections processes while allowing
for a more granular segmentation of the loan portfolio. This change in model resulted in a decrease in the allowance
of approximately $48.2 million. These decreases were offset by allowances recognized on new purchases and
originations of loans held for investment in the period, though with generally higher credit quality and pledged to
securitization trusts. This combination of factors, coupled with the in-period charge-offs and recoveries, resulted in a
decrease in the provision for credit losses of $39.2 million compared to the year ended June 30, 2020.

Funding costs for the year ended June 30, 2021 increased by $20.4 million or 63%, compared to the year
ended June 30, 2020. Funding costs for a given period are correlated with the sum of the average balance of funding
debt and the average balance of notes issued by securitization trusts. This increase was primarily due to the
introduction of notes issued by securitization trusts during the current fiscal year, which bear interest at fixed rates.
The average balance of notes issued by securitization trusts during the year ended June 30, 2021 was $747.0 million,
which did not exist during the prior year period. The average balance of funding debt for the year ended June 30,
2021 increased by $38.0 million or 5%, compared to the year ended June 30, 2020, while the average reference
interest rate decreased by 91% during the period.

payment processing fees due to increased servicing activity and payments volume for the year ended June 30, 2021.
Additionally, processing fees paid to our customer referral partners increased by $3.4 million or 189% for the year
ended June 30, 2021. Personnel costs increased by $6.4 million or 119% for the year ended June 30, 2021 driven by
growth in headcount, while third-party loan servicing and collections spend remained flat, increasing only 4% due to
vendor cost improvements.

Technology and data analytics expense for the year ended June 30, 2021 increased by $133.7 million or
109%, compared to the year ended June 30, 2020. This increase was primarily due to a $106.4 million or 140%,
increase in engineering, product, and data science personnel costs for the year ended June 30, 2021, compared to the
year ended June 30, 2020, net of capitalized costs for internal-use software, to continue to support our growth and
technology platform as a whole. The largest component of these personnel costs was stock-based compensation,
which accounted for $71.1 million of the increase compared to the year ended June 30, 2020, largely due to the
vesting of RSUs for which the service-based condition had been met prior to the IPO and the performance-based
condition was met on the IPO date.
Additionally, there was a $15.1 million or 63%, increase in data infrastructure and hosting costs for the year
ended June 30, 2021, compared to the year ended June 30, 2020, as well as a $0.9 million or 6%, increase in
underwriting data provider costs for the year ended June 30, 2021 compared to the year ended June 30, 2020.Our
data infrastructure and hosting and underwriting and data provider costs all benefited from unit level cost

Sales and marketing expense for the year ended June 30, 2021 increased by $159.2 million or 636%,

during the year ended June 30, 2021 associated with the amortization of our commercial agreement asset with
Shopify, which was recognized in July 2020. This asset represents the probable future economic benefit to be
realized over the four-year expected benefit period and is valued based on the fair value of the warrants granted to
Shopify under such commercial agreement at the grant date. This value is amortized on a straight-line basis over the
four-year expected benefit period. Additionally, stock-based compensation related to employees in the sales and

vesting of RSUs for which the service-based condition had been met prior to the IPO and the performance-based
condition was met on the IPO date.
Furthermore, there was a $32.3 million or 1,154% increase in brand and consumer marketing spend during
the year ended June 30, 2021 compared to the year ended June 30, 2020, associated with our expanded brand-
activation, holiday shopping, lifestyle, and travel marketing campaigns, as well as a $12.4 million or 2,480%
increase in business-to-business marketing spend compared to the year ended June 30, 2020. Prior to this fiscal year,
we had only engaged in very limited marketing efforts, primarily in the form of co-marketing with merchants.

General and administrative expense for the year ended June 30, 2021 increased by $249.0 million or 205%,
compared to the year ended June 30, 2020. This increase was primarily due to an increase of $198.9 million or 263%
in personnel costs during the year ended June 30, 2021, compared to the year ended June 30, 2020, as a result of
increased headcount as we continue to grow our finance, legal, operations, and administrative organizations. The
largest component of these personnel costs was stock-based compensation, which increased by $169.4 million
compared to the year ended June 30, 2020. This was primarily due to $83.9 million of expense recognized during the
year ended June 30, 2021 based on a long-term, multi-year performance-based stock option award granted to our
Chief Executive Officer prior to our IPO, as well as the vesting of RSUs for which the service-based condition had
been met prior to the IPO and the performance-based condition was met on the IPO date.
Additionally, professional fees increased by $16.3 million or 133% during the year ended June 30, 2021,
compared to the year ended June 30, 2020, to support our initial public offering, acquisitions, international
expansion, and regulatory compliance programs.

For the year ended June 30, 2021, other income (expense), net, was primarily comprised of a loss of $87.2
million recognized based on the change in fair value of the contingent consideration liability associated with our
acquisition of PayBright driven by changes in the value of our common stock, and a gain of $30.1 million
recognized upon the conversion of convertible notes into shares of Series G-1 preferred stock. The conversion of
convertible notes was accounted for as a debt extinguishment since the number of shares of Series G-1 preferred
stock issued upon conversion was variable and this gain represented the difference between the carrying value of the
debt at the time of extinguishment and the allocated proceeds. Additionally, we recognized a loss of $(1.6) million
related to increases in the fair value of investments.
For the year ended June 30, 2020, other income (expense), net was primarily comprised of interest earned on
money market funds of $3.9 million, offset by losses on our constant maturity swaps of $4.0 million and a loss of
$3.8 million on the extinguishment of our convertible debt derivative liability.

1 We determined that stock based compensation recorded during the three months ended March 31, 2021 was understated, as the estimated fair value of RSUs granted during the three months ended December 31, 2020 did not reflect an increase in share value due to the anticipated IPO. As a result, the accompanying unaudited interim financial information for the three months ended March 31, 2021 has been adjusted to reflect additional stock based compensation expense of $25.0 million from amounts previously reported.

APPENDIX III MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF AFFIRM

Quarterly Revenue Trends

Total Revenue, net has generally increased sequentially in each of the periods presented due to the
continued growth in GMV, increase in active consumers, and expansion of our merchant network. We generally
experience seasonality in our business in terms of changes in GMV in accordance with retail and e-commerce
trends. We typically see increased revenue in the second fiscal quarter of each year as a result of the increased GMV
occurring as a part of the holiday shopping season, which is most evident in merchant network revenue as this
revenue is recognized when the terms of the executed merchant agreement have been fulfilled and the merchant
successfully confirms the transaction. We believe that this seasonality has affected and will continue to affect our
quarterly results; however, to date its effect may have been masked by our rapid growth.
Since we recognize interest income on loans held for investment over the term of the loan, a substantial
portion of the revenue we report in each period is attributable to loans created via transactions occurring in prior
periods. Consequently, increases or decreases in GMV in one period may not be immediately reflected in our
revenue for that period and may positively or negatively affect our revenue in future periods. This effect is lessened
by the relatively short duration of loans held for investment but may be increased by shifts in the relative proportion
of loans held for investment compared to loans sold to third-party loan buyers.

Quarterly Operating Expense Trends

Operating expenses generally have increased sequentially in each of the periods presented, other than the
fourth fiscal quarter of 2020 and fourth fiscal quarter of 2021. Quarterly increases in operating expenses are
primarily due to increased costs of operations as our GMV and total platform portfolio have grown and due to
increased investments in headcount and other related expenses to support our growth. We expect headcount to
continue to increase given our focus on growth and expansion.
The provision for credit losses represents the amount of expense required to maintain the allowance of
credit losses on our balance sheet which represents management’s estimate of future losses. The provision is
determined by the change in estimates for future losses and the net charge offs incurred in the period. Our provision
for losses has generally grown in line with the increase in loans held for investment, with the exception of the third
and fourth fiscal quarters of 2020 as well as the second and third fiscal quarters of 2021.
In March 2020, at the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, we increased our allowance for loan losses
significantly after factoring in updated loss multiples using macroeconomic data to reflect stressed expected loss
scenarios emerging from forecasted delinquencies and defaults. This resulted in a significant increase in provision
for credit losses during the period. However, during the following quarter ended June 30, 2020, we saw stronger
than expected repayment history in the portfolio, resulting in a decrease in these stressed loss multiples and release
of the allowance and therefore, a significant decrease in operating expenses.
During the second and third fiscal quarters of 2021, we saw similarly stronger than expected repayment
history as well as improving macroeconomic factors resulting in reduced provision expense. Additionally, we began
transitioning to a new underlying data model which incorporates internal improvements to our underwriting and
collections processes while allowing for a more granular segmentation of the loan portfolio. This change in model
resulted in a decrease to the allowance. These decreases were largely offset by allowances recognized on new
purchases and originations of loans held for investment in the period with generally higher credit quality and
pledged to securitization trusts, however, this combination of factors, coupled with the in-period charge-offs and
repayments, resulted in income recognized from the provision for credit losses of during the three months ended
March 31, 2021. Should similar macroeconomic or other factors arise that change our loss expectations, we may
increase or decrease the allowance.

APPENDIX III MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF AFFIRM

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Sources and Uses of Funds

We have incurred losses since our inception, accumulating a deficit of $888.4 million and $447.2 million as
of June 30, 2021 and June 30, 2020, respectively. We have historically financed the majority of our operating and
capital needs through the private sales of equity securities, borrowings from debt facilities and convertible debt,
third-party loan sale arrangements, and cash flows from operations. In September and October 2020, we issued an
aggregate of 21,836,687 shares of Series G preferred stock for aggregate cash proceeds of $435.1 million. On
January 15, 2021, we closed an initial public offering of our Class A common stock with cash proceeds, before
expenses, of $1.3 billion.
As of June 30, 2021, our principal sources of liquidity were cash and cash equivalents, available capacity
from revolving debt facilities, revolving securitizations, forward flow loan sale arrangements, and certain cash flows
from our operations. We believe that our existing cash balances, available capacity under our revolving debt
facilities, revolving securitizations and off-balance sheet loan sale arrangements, and cash from operations, are
sufficient to meet both our existing operating, working capital, and capital expenditure requirements and our
currently planned growth for at least the next 12 months. We cannot provide assurance, however, that our business
will generate sufficient cash flows from operations or that future borrowings will be available to us in an amount
sufficient to enable us to fund our liquidity needs. Our ability to do so depends on prevailing economic conditions
and other factors, many of which are beyond our control. Our on- and off-balance sheet facilities provide funding
subject to various constraining limits on the financed portfolios. These limits are generally tied to loan-level
attributes such as loan term, credit quality, and interest rate, as well as borrower- and merchant-level attributes.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

As of June 30, 2021, we had approximately $1.5 billion of cash to fund our future operations compared to
approximately $267.1 million as of June 30, 2020. Our cash and cash equivalents were held primarily for continued
investment in our business, for working capital purposes, and to facilitate a portion of our lending activities. Our
policy is to invest cash in excess of our immediate working capital requirements in short-term investments and
deposit accounts to preserve the principal balance and maintain adequate liquidity.

Restricted Cash

Restricted cash consists primarily of: (i) deposits restricted by standby letters of credit for office leases;
(ii) funds held in accounts as collateral for our originating bank partners; and (iii) servicing funds held in accounts
contractually restricted by agreements with warehouse credit facilities and third-party loan owners. We have no
ability to draw on such funds as long as they remain restricted under the applicable arrangements. Our policy is to
invest restricted cash held in debt facility related accounts and cash deposited as collateral for leases in investments
designed to preserve the principal balance and provide liquidity. Accordingly, such cash is invested primarily in
money market instruments that offer daily purchase and redemption and provide competitive returns consistent with
our policies and market conditions.

Warehouse Credit Facilities

Through trusts, we entered into warehouse credit facilities with certain lenders to finance the purchase and
origination of our loans. These trusts are consolidated variable interest entities (“VIE”), and each trust entered into a
credit agreement and security agreement with a commercial bank as administrative agent and a national banking
association as collateral trustee and paying agent. Borrowings under these agreements are referred to as funding
debt. These credit agreements contain operating covenants, including limitations on the incurrence of certain
indebtedness and liens, restrictions on certain intercompany transactions, and limitations on the amount of dividends
and stock repurchases. Our funding debt facilities include concentration limits for various loan characteristics
including credit quality, product mix, geography, and merchant concentration. As of June 30, 2021, we were in
compliance with all applicable covenants in the agreements. Refer to Note 11. Debt of the accompanying notes to
the consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Form 10-K for additional information.
These revolving facilities mature between 2022 and 2026, and subject to covenant compliance generally
permit borrowings up to 12 months prior to the final maturity date. Borrowings under these facilities generally occur
multiple times per week, and generally coincide with the purchase of loans from our originating bank partners. We
manage liquidity by accessing diversified pools of capital and avoid concentration with any single counterparty; we
are diversified across different types of investors including investment banks, asset managers, and insurance
companies.
Borrowings under these facilities bear interest at an annual benchmark rate of LIBOR or at an alternative
commercial paper rate (which is either (i) the per annum rate equivalent to the weighted-average of the per annum
rates at which all commercial paper notes were issued by certain lenders to fund advances or maintain loans, or
(ii) the daily weighted-average of LIBOR, as set forth in the applicable credit agreement), plus a spread ranging
from 1.70% to 4.00%. Interest is payable monthly. In addition, these agreements require payment of a monthly
unused commitment fee ranging from 0.20% to 0.75% per annum on the undrawn portion available.

Prior to our acquisition of PayBright on January 1, 2021, PayBright entered into various credit facilities
utilized to finance the origination of loans in Canada. Similar to our warehouse credit facilities, borrowings under
these agreements are referred to as funding debt, and proceeds from the borrowings may only be used for the
purposes of facilitating loan funding and origination. These facilities are secured by PayBright loan receivables
pledged to the respective facility as collateral, mature in 2022, and bear interest based on a commercial paper rate
plus a spread ranging from 1.25% to 4.25%.

Convertible Debt

On April 29, 2020, we entered into a note purchase agreement with various investors and issued convertible
notes in an aggregate amount of $75.0 million with a maturity date of April 29, 2021 and bearing interest at a rate of
1.00% per annum.
On September 11, 2020, as part of our Series G equity financing round, the convertible notes issued in
April 2020 were fully converted into 4,444,321 shares of Series G-1 preferred stock.

Revolving Credit Facility

On January 19, 2021, we entered into a revolving credit agreement with a syndicate of commercial banks
for a $185.0 million unsecured revolving credit facility. This facility bears interest at a rate equal to, at our option,
either (a) a Eurodollar rate determined by reference to adjusted LIBOR for the interest period, plus an applicable
margin of 2.50% per annum or (b) a base rate determined by reference to the highest of (i) the federal funds rate plus
0.50% per annum, (ii) the rate last quoted by The Wall Street Journal as the U.S. prime rate, and (iii) the one-month
adjusted LIBOR plus 1.00% per annum, in each case, plus an applicable margin of 1.50% per annum. The revolving
credit agreement has a final maturity date of January 19, 2024. The facility contains certain covenants and
restrictions, including certain financial maintenance covenants, and requires payment of a monthly unused
commitment fee of 0.35% per annum on the undrawn balance available. There are no borrowings outstanding under
the facility at June 30, 2021. Refer to Note 11. Debt.

Securitizations

In connection with asset-backed securitizations, we sponsor and establish trusts to ultimately purchase
loans facilitated by our platform. Securities issued from our asset-backed securitizations are senior or subordinated,
based on the waterfall criteria of loan payments to each security class. The subordinated residual interests issued
from these transactions are first to absorb credit losses in accordance with the waterfall criteria. The assets are
transferred into a trust such that the assets are legally isolated from the creditors of Affirm and are not available to
satisfy our obligations. These assets can only be used to settle obligations of the underlying trusts. Each
securitization trust issued senior notes and residual certificates to finance the purchase of the loans facilitated by our
platform. At the closing of each securitization, we contributed loans, facilitated through our technology platform,
with an aggregate outstanding principal balance of $1,856.8 million. The 2020-Z1, 2020-Z2, and 2021-Z1
securitizations are secured by static pools of loans contributed at closing, whereas the 2020-A and 2021-A
securitizations are revolving and we may contribute additional loans from time to time until the end of the revolving
period. Refer to Note 12.Securitizations and Variable Interest Entities.

Operating Activities

Our largest sources of operating cash flows are fees charged to merchant partners on transactions processed
through our platform and interest income from consumers’ loans. Our primary uses of cash from operating activities
are for general and administrative, technology and data analytics, funding costs, processing and servicing, and sales
and marketing expenses.
Cash used in operating activities for the year ended June 30, 2021 was $193.1 million, an increase of
$121.8 million from $71.3 million for the year ended June 30, 2020. This reflects our net loss of $430.9 million,
adjusted for non-cash charges of $332.3 million, net cash outflows of $45.9 million from the purchase and sale of
loans held for sale, and net cash inflows of $53.7 million provided by changes in our operating assets and liabilities.
Non-cash charges primarily consisted of: provision for credit losses, which decreased by $39.2 million or
37% due to lower than expected credit losses and improved credit quality of the portfolio; gain (loss) on sales of
loans, which increased by $58.0 million from $31.9 million for the year ended June 30, 2020 due to improved loan
sale economics and increased loan sales since the fourth quarter of the prior year; and amortization of premiums and
discounts, which increased by $62.8 million or 227% due to increased amortization of discounts related to loans
purchased from our originating bank partners at a price above fair market value. Additionally, during the year ended
June 30, 2021, we recognized a gain of $30.1 million resulting from the conversion of the convertible notes into
shares of Series G-1 redeemable convertible preferred stock in September 2020. This gain represented the difference
between the carrying value of the debt at the time of extinguishment and the allocated proceeds. We also incurred
$69.1 million of amortization expense associated with our commercial agreement assets. None of these non-cash
charges were earned or incurred during the year ended June 30, 2020. Furthermore, we incurred $288.0 million of
stock-based compensation, up from $29.6 million during the year ended June 30, 2020 due to accelerated vesting of
RSUs for which the service-based condition had been met prior to the IPO and the performance-based condition was
met on the IPO date, and losses of $87.2 million due to the increase in the fair value of our contingent consideration
liability, driven by changes in the value of our common stock.
Our net cash outflows resulting from changes in operating assets and liabilities increased to $53.7 million
for the year ended June 30, 2021, compared to cash inflows of $31.0 million for the year ended June 30, 2020. This
shift was primarily due to increases to other assets as a result of the recognition of our Shopify commercial
agreement asset, which had a balance of $205.8 million at June 30, 2021, partially offset by increases to accrued
expenses and other liabilities associated with our contingent consideration liability, which had a balance of $147.8
million at June 30, 2021.

APPENDIX III MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF AFFIRM

Investing Activities

Cash used in investing activities for the year ended June 30, 2021 was $1,022.0 million, an increase of
$769.0 million from $253.1 million for the year ended June 30, 2020. The main driver of this was $5.9 billion of
purchases and origination of loans, representing an increase of $3.1 billion or 108% compared to the prior year, due
partly to continued growth in GMV but also due to the establishment of five new securitization trusts during the
period in which we purchased loans and contributed approximately $1,856.8 million of loan receivables to the trusts,
rather than selling to third-party loan buyers and classifying this activity as an operating activity on the statement of
cash flows. Additionally, we recorded cash outflows of approximately $222.4 million related to cash consideration
for acquisitions, net of cash and restricted cash acquired. These cash outflows were partially offset by $4,324.6
million of repayments of loans and other servicing activity, representing an increase of $2,029.8 million, or 88%,
compared to the prior year, due to a higher average balance of loans held for investment and generally increasing
credit quality of the portfolio.

Financing Activities

Cash provided by financing activities for the year ended June 30, 2021 was $2,577.8 million, an increase of
$2,283.1 million from $294.7 million during the year ended June 30, 2020. A main driver of this was the issuance of
common stock upon our initial public offering in January 2021 for $1,305.2 million, net of issuance costs, and
issuances of Series G redeemable convertible preferred stock in September 2020 and October 2020 for $434.5
million, net of issuance costs. Additionally, the issuance of notes by our newly formed securitization trusts during
the year ended June 30, 2021 resulted in net cash inflows of $1,185.5 million, net of in-period principal repayments.
Each of these cash inflows represented new financing activities compared to the year ended June 30, 2020 but were
partially offset by $222.8 million of net cash outflows from funding debt as principal repayments on debt exceeded
proceeds from draws on these revolving credit facilities. The net cash outflows from funding debt are in contrast to
net cash inflows from funding debt of $250.7 million during the year ended June 30, 2020. The shift between
periods is largely due to the availability of new funding sources in our securitization trusts. Additionally, we
recorded payments of approximately $158.3 million for tax withholding associated with stock-based compensation
during the year ended June 30, 2021 which did not occur in prior periods, as the vesting of RSUs was triggered by
the initial public offering in January 2021.

Liquidity and Capital Risks and Requirements

There are numerous risks to our financial results, liquidity, capital raising, and debt refinancing plans, some
of which may not be quantified in our current liquidity forecasts. The principal factors that could impact our
liquidity and capital needs are customer delinquencies and defaults, a prolonged inability to adequately access
capital market funding, declines in loan purchases and therefore revenue, fluctuations in our financial performance,
the timing and extent of spending to support development efforts, the expansion of sales and marketing activities,
the introduction of new and enhanced products, and the continuing market adoption of our platform. We intend to
support our liquidity and capital position by pursuing diversified debt financings (including new securitizations and
revolving debt facilities) and extending existing secured revolving facilities to provide committed liquidity in case of
prolonged market fluctuations.
We may, in the future, enter into arrangements to acquire or invest in complementary businesses, products,
and technologies. We may be required to seek additional equity or debt financing in connection with those efforts. In
the event that we require additional financing, we may not be able to raise such financing on terms acceptable to us
or at all. Additionally, as a result of any of these actions, we may be subject to restrictions and covenants in the
agreements governing these transactions that may place limitations on us, and we may be required to pledge
additional collateral as security. If we are unable to raise additional capital or generate cash flows necessary to
expand our operations and invest in continued innovation, we may not be able to compete successfully, which would
harm our business, operations, and financial condition. It is also possible that the actual outcome of one or more of
our plans could be materially different than expected or that one or more of our significant judgments or estimates
could prove to be materially incorrect.

Concentrations of Revenue

For the years ended June 30, 2021, 2020, and 2019 approximately 20%, 28%, and 20% of total revenue,
respectively, was driven by one merchant partner, Peloton. We believe we have a strong relationship with Peloton
and, in September 2020, we entered into a renewed merchant agreement with Peloton with an initial three-year term
ending in September 2023, which automatically renews for additional and successive one-year terms until
terminated. While we believe our growth will facilitate both revenue growth and merchant diversification as we
continue to integrate with a wide range of merchants, our revenue concentration may cause our financial
performance to fluctuate significantly from period to period based on the revenue from such merchant partner.

variable price provisions, and the approximate timing of the actions under the contracts.
In February 2012, we entered into an agreement with a third-party cloud computing web services provider
for our cloud computing and hosting services. In May 2020, we entered into an addendum to our agreement with our
cloud computing web services provider which included annual spending commitments for the period between May
2020 and April 2023 with an aggregate committed spend of $120.0 million during such period. Our agreement with
our cloud computing web services provider will continue indefinitely until terminated by either party. Our cloud-
computing web services provider may terminate the customer agreement for convenience with 30 days prior written
notice and may, in some cases, terminate the agreement immediately for cause upon notice. If we fail to meet the
minimum purchase commitment during any year, we may be required to pay the difference. We pay our cloud-
computing web services provider monthly, and we may pay more than the minimum purchase commitment to our
cloud-computing web services provider based on usage.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

Off-balance sheet loans relate to unconsolidated securitization transactions and loans sold to third-party
investors for which we have some form of continuing involvement, including as servicer. For an off-balance sheet
101

– III-29 –

APPENDIX III MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF AFFIRM

loan where servicing is the only form of continuing involvement, we would only experience a loss if we were
required to repurchase such a loan due to a breach in representations and warranties associated with our loan sale or
servicing contracts. As of June 30, 2021, the aggregate outstanding balance of loans held by third-party investors or
off-balance sheet VIEs was $2.5 billion. As of June 30, 2021, we had one off-balance sheet VIE, the 2021-Z1
securitization. In the unlikely event principal payments on the loans backing any off-balance sheet securitization are
insufficient to pay senior note holders, including any retained interest, then any amounts the Company contributed to
the securitization reserve accounts may be depleted. See Note 12. Securitizations and Variable Interest Entitiesof
the accompanying notes to our consolidated financial statements for more information.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our
consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. U.S. GAAP requires
us to make certain estimates and judgments that affect the amounts reported in consolidated financial statements. We
base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under
the circumstances. Because certain of these accounting policies require significant judgment, our actual results may
differ materially from our estimates. To the extent that there are differences between our estimates and actual results,
our future consolidated financial statement presentation, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows
will be affected.
We evaluate our significant estimates on an ongoing basis, including, but not limited to, estimates related to
merchant network revenue, loss on loan purchase commitment, allowance for credit losses, stock-based
compensation, and income taxes. We believe these estimates have the greatest potential effect on our consolidated
financial statements. Therefore, we consider these to be our critical accounting policies and estimates. For further
information, all of our significant accounting policies, including recent accounting pronouncements, are described in
Note2.Summary of Significant Accounting Policiesof the accompanying notes to our consolidated financial
statements included in this Form 10-K.

Merchant Network Revenue

Merchant network revenue consists primarily of merchant fees. Merchants are charged a fee on each
transaction processed through the Affirm platform. The fees range depending on the individual arrangement between
us and each merchant and vary based on the terms of the product offering. The fee is recognized as earned when the
terms of the executed merchant agreement have been fulfilled and the merchant successfully confirms the
transaction. We present our transaction with the merchant separate from our transactions with our originating bank
partners. Except where we originate certain loans via our wholly-owned subsidiaries, our bank partners are the
originator of the loan extended to the merchant’s customer, and accordingly we account for the loan separate from
the fee received from the merchant.
When we originate loans via our wholly-owned subsidiaries, certain loans may have zero or below market
interest rates. In these instances, the par value of the loans originated is in excess of the fair market value of such
loans, resulting in a loss, which we record as a reduction to merchant network revenue when we estimate that these
losses will be recoverable over the term of our contract with the merchant. In order to continue to expand our
consumer base, we may originate loans under certain merchant arrangements that we do not expect to achieve
positive revenue. In these instances, the loss is recorded as sales and marketing expense.

Loss on Loan Purchase Commitment

We purchase loans from our originating bank partners that are facilitated through our platform. Under the
terms of the agreement, we are generally required to pay the principal amount plus accrued interest for such loans. In
certain instances, our originating bank partner may originate loans with zero or below market interest rates that we
are required to purchase. In these instances, we may be required to purchase the loan for a price in excess of the fair
market value of such loans, which results in a loss on loan purchase and is recognized as loss on loan purchase
commitment in our consolidated statements of operations. The fair value is determined by taking the difference
102

– III-30 –

APPENDIX III MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF AFFIRM

between the estimated fair value of the loan and the anticipated purchase price. When the loan is purchased, the
liability is included in the amortized cost basis of the purchased loan as a discount, which is then amortized into
interest income over the life of the loan.

Allowance for Credit Losses

The allowance for credit losses on loans held for investment is determined based on management’s current
estimate of expected credit losses over the remaining contractual term, historical credit losses, consumer payment
trends, estimates of recoveries, and future expectations on individual loans as of each balance sheet date. We
immediately recognize an allowance for expected credit losses upon origination of a loan. Adjustments to the
allowance each period for changes in our estimate of lifetime expected credit losses are recognized in earnings
through the provision for credit losses presented on our consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive
loss. We have made an accounting policy election to not measure an allowance for credit losses for accrued interest
receivables. Previously recognized interest receivable from charged-off loans that is accrued but not collected from
the consumer is reversed.
In estimating the allowance for credit losses, management utilizes a migration analysis of delinquent and
current loan receivables. Migration analysis is a technique used to estimate the likelihood that a loan receivable will
progress through various stages of delinquency and to charge-off. The analysis focuses on the pertinent factors
underlying the quality of the loan portfolio. These factors include historical performance, the age of the receivable
balance, seasonality, customer credit-worthiness, changes in the size and composition of the loan portfolio,
delinquency levels, bankruptcy filings, actual credit loss experience, and current economic conditions. We also take
into consideration certain qualitative factors where we adjust our quantitative baseline using our best judgement to
consider the inherent uncertainty regarding future economic conditions and consumer loan performance.For
example, the Company considers the impact of current economic and environmental factors at the reporting date that
did not exist over the period from which historical experience was used.As of June 30, 2021, we have considered
the impact of government intervention and legislation in the form of stimulus checks, extended unemployment
benefits, and small business relief on loan repayment and consumer behavior patterns.
When available information confirms that specific loans or portions thereof are uncollectible, identified
amounts are charged against the allowance for credit losses. Loans are charged-off in accordance with our charge-
off policy, as the contractual principal becomes 120 days past due. Subsequent recoveries of the unpaid principal
balance, if any, are credited to the allowance for credit losses.
The underlying assumptions, estimates, and assessments we use to provide for losses are updated
periodically to reflect our view of current conditions, which can result in changes to our assumptions. Changes in
such estimates can significantly affect the allowance and provision for credit losses. It is possible that we will
experience loan losses that are different from our current estimates.

Stock-Based Compensation Expense

Compensation expense related to stock-based transactions, including employee, consultant, and non-
employee director stock option awards and restricted stock units ("RSUs"), is measured and recognized in the
consolidated financial statements based on fair value. The fair value of each equity-classified option award is
estimated on the grant date using the Black Scholes option-pricing model. Expense is recognized on a straight-line
basis over the vesting period of the award based on the estimated portion of the award that is expected to vest.
Our option-pricing model requires the input of highly subjective assumptions, including the fair value of
the underlying common stock, the expected term of the option, the expected volatility of the price of our common
stock, risk-free interest rates, and the expected dividend yield of our common stock. The assumptions used in our
option-pricing model represent management’s best estimates. These estimates involve inherent uncertainties and the
application of management’s judgment. If factors change and different assumptions are used, our stock-based
compensation expense could be materially different in the future.
103

– III-31 –

APPENDIX III MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF AFFIRM

Additionally, we have granted stock option awards with service-based and performance-based vesting
conditions, with market-based conditions that are incorporated into the grant date fair value. We determined the
grant date fair value of these awards by utilizing a Monte Carlo simulation model that incorporates the possibility
that the market-based conditions may not be satisfied. The Monte Carlo simulation also incorporates assumptions
including expected stock price volatility, expected term, and risk-free interest rates. We estimate the volatility of
common stock on the date of grant based on the weighted-average historical stock price volatility of comparable
publicly-traded companies in our industry group. We estimate the expected term of the award based on various
exercise scenarios. The risk-free interest rate is determined using a U.S. Treasury rate for the period that coincides
with the expected term set forth.
We will continue to use judgment in evaluating the assumptions related to our stock-based compensation
on a prospective basis. As we continue to accumulate additional data related to our common stock, we may have
refinements to our estimates, which could materially impact our future stock-based compensation expense.

Income Taxes

We report income taxes in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards
Codification (“FASB ASC”) 740, Income Taxes (“ASC 740”), which requires an asset and liability approach in
accounting for income taxes. Under this method, the deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the
differences between the financial reporting and the tax bases of assets and liabilities and are measured using the
enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. A valuation allowance
reduces the deferred tax assets to the amount that is more likely than not to be realized.
The calculation of our tax liabilities involves dealing with uncertainties in the application of complex
federal and state tax laws and regulations. ASC 740 states that a tax benefit from an uncertain tax position may be
recognized when it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination, including
resolutions of any related appeals or litigation processes, on the basis of the technical merits.
We record unrecognized tax benefits as liabilities in accordance with ASC 740 and adjust these liabilities
when our judgment changes as a result of the evaluation of new information not previously available. Due to the
complexity of some of these uncertainties, the ultimate resolution may result in a payment that is materially different
from our current estimate of the unrecognized tax benefit liabilities. These differences will be reflected as increases
or decreases to income tax expense in the period in which new information is available.
We assess the available positive and negative evidence to estimate whether sufficient future taxable income
will be generated to permit the use of existing deferred tax assets. A significant piece of objective negative evidence
evaluated was the cumulative loss incurred for theyears endedJune 30, 2021, 2020, and 2019.Such objective
evidence limits the ability to consider other subjective evidence, such as our projections for future growth. On the
basis of this evaluation, as of June 30, 2021, 2020, and 2019, a full valuation allowance has been recorded against
our gross deferred tax asset, net of future reversing deferred tax liabilities. The amount of the deferred tax assets
considered realizable, however, could be adjusted if estimates of the future taxable income during the carryforward
period are reduced or increased or if objective negative evidence in the form of cumulative losses is no longer
present and additional weight is given to subjective evidence such as our projections for growth.

Overview

We are building the next generation platform for digital and mobile-first commerce. We believe that by
using modern technology, the very best engineering talent, and a mission-driven approach, we can reinvent
payments and commerce. Our solutions, which are built on trust and transparency, make it easier for consumers to
spend responsibly and with confidence, easier for merchants to convert sales and grow, and easier for commerce to
thrive.
Our point-of-sale solutions allow consumers to pay for purchases in fixed amounts without deferred
interest, late fees, or penalties. We empower consumers to pay over time rather than paying for a purchase entirely
upfront. This increases consumers’ purchasing power and gives them more control and flexibility. Our platform
facilitates both true 0% APR payment options and interest-bearing loans. On the merchant side, we offer commerce
enablement, demand generation, and customer acquisition tools. Our solutions empower merchants to more
efficiently promote and sell their products, optimize their customer acquisition strategies, and drive incremental
sales. We also provide valuable product-level data and insights — information that merchants cannot easily get
elsewhere — to better inform their strategies. Finally, our consumer app unlocks the full suite of Affirm products for
a delightful end-to-end consumer experience. Consumers can use our app to manage payments, open a high-yield
savings account, and access a personalized marketplace.
Our company is predicated on the principles of simplicity, transparency, and putting people first. By
adhering to these principles, we have built enduring, trust-based relationships with consumers and merchants that we
believe will set us up for long-term, sustainable success. We believe our innovative approach uniquely positions us
to define the future of commerce and payments.
Technology and data are at the core of everything we do. Our expertise in sourcing, aggregating, and
analyzing data has been what we believe to be the key competitive advantage of our platform since our founding.
We believe our proprietary technology platform and data give us a unique advantage in pricing risk. We use data to
inform our risk scoring in order to generate value for our consumers, merchants, and capital partners. We collect and
store petabytes of information that we carefully structure and use to regularly recalibrate and revalidate our models,
thereby getting to risk scoring and pricing faster, more efficiently, and with a higher degree of confidence. We also
prioritize building our own technology and investing in product and engineering talent as we believe these are
enduring competitive advantages that are difficult to replicate. Our solutions use the latest in machine learning,
artificial intelligence, cloud-based technologies, and other modern tools to create differentiated and scalable
products.
We have achieved significant growth in recent periods. Our total revenue, net was approximately $1,349.3
million, $870.5 million, and $509.5 million for the years ended June 30, 2022, 2021, and 2020 respectively. We

incurred net losses of $707.4 million, $441.0 million, and $112.6 million for the years ended June 30, 2022, 2021,
and 2020 respectively.
The combination of our differentiated product offerings, efficient go-to-market strategy, and strong
monetization engine has resulted in fast growth.
  • Rapid GMV growth. We grew our GMV by approximately 87% year-over-year to $15.5 billion during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2022. During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2021, GMV was $8.3 billion, which represented 79% growth over the fiscal year ended June 30, 2020.

  • Increased consumer engagement. The number of active consumers on our platform grew by 6.9 million consumers from June 30, 2021 to June 30, 2022, an increase of 96%, to a total of 14.0 million.

  • Expanded merchant network. We have also continued to scale the breadth and reach of our platform. From June 30, 2021 to June 30, 2022, our merchant base expanded from 28,995 to 234,847 active merchants due primarily to continued expansion to merchants related to the Shopify partnership.

Our business is designed to scale efficiently. Our partnerships with banks and other funding relationships
have allowed us to remain equity capital efficient. Since July 1, 2016, we have processed approximately $33.0
billion of GMV on our platform. As of June 30, 2022, we had over $10.6 billion in funding capacity from a diverse
set of capital partners, including through our warehouse facilities, securitization trusts, and forward flow
arrangements, an increase of $4.1 billion from $6.5 billion as of June 30, 2021.
Through the diversity of these funding relationships, the equity capital required to build our total platform
portfolio has declined from approximately 4% of the total platform portfolio as of June 30, 2021, to approximately
3% as of June 30, 2022. This metric measures the equity intensity of our business or the amount of capital used in
relation to the scale of our enterprise. We define our total platform portfolio as the unpaid principal balance
outstanding of all loans facilitated through our platform as of the balance sheet date, including both those loans held
for investment and those loans owned by third-parties. This amount totaled $7.1 billion and $4.7 billion as of
June 30, 2022 and June 30, 2021, respectively. Additionally, we define the equity capital required as the balance of
loans held for investment plus loans held for sale less funding debt and notes issued by securitization trusts, per our
consolidated balance sheet. This amount totaled $206.1 million and $178.1 million as of June 30, 2022 and June 30,
2021, respectively. Equity capital required as a percent of the last twelve months’ GMV was 1% and 2% as of
June 30, 2022 and June 30, 2021, respectively.
We believe that our continued success will depend on many factors, including our ability to attract
additional merchant partners, retain our existing merchant partners, and grow and develop our relationships with
new and existing merchant partners, help our merchants grow their revenue on our platform, and develop new
innovative solutions to establish the ubiquity of our network and breadth of our platform. For a further discussion of
trends, uncertainties and other factors that could impact our operating results, see the section entitled “Risk Factors”
in Item 1A, which is incorporated herein by reference.

Our Financial Model

Our Revenue Model

From merchants, we earn a fee when we help them convert a sale and facilitate a transaction. While
merchant fees depend on the individual arrangement between us and each merchant and vary based on the terms of
the product offering, we generally earn larger merchant fees on 0% APR financing products. For the years ended
June 30, 2022, 2021, and 2020, Split Pay and Core 0% loans represented 22% and 21%, 11% and 32%, and 6% and
37%, respectively, of total GMV facilitated through our platform.
From consumers, we earn interest income on the simple interest loans that we originate or purchase from
our originating bank partners. Interest rates charged to our consumers vary depending on the transaction risk,
creditworthiness of the consumer, the repayment term selected by the consumer, the amount of the loan, and the
60

APPENDIX III MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF AFFIRM

individual arrangement with a merchant. Because our consumers are never charged deferred or compounding
interest, late fees, or penalties on the loans, we are not incentivized to profit from our consumers’ hardships. In
addition, interest income includes the amortization of any discounts or premiums on loan receivables created upon
either the purchase of a loan from one of our originating bank partners or the origination of a loan.
In order to accelerate our ubiquity, we facilitate the issuance of virtual cards directly to consumers through
our app, allowing them to shop with merchants that may not yet be fully integrated with Affirm. When these virtual
cards are used over established card networks, we earn a portion of the interchange fee from the transaction.

Our Loan Origination and Servicing Model

When a consumer applies for a loan through our platform, the loan is underwritten using our proprietary
risk model. Once approved for the loan, the consumer then selects his/her/their preferred repayment option. The
substantial majority of these loans are funded and issued by our originating bank partners.
A substantial majority of the loans facilitated through our platform are originated through our originating
bank partners: Cross River Bank, an FDIC-insured New Jersey state-chartered bank, and Celtic Bank, an FDIC-
insured Utah state-chartered industrial bank. These partnerships allow us to benefit from our partners’ ability to
originate loans under their banking licenses while complying with various federal, state, and other laws. Under this
arrangement, we must comply with our originating bank partners' credit policies and underwriting procedures, and
our originating bank partners maintain ultimate authority to decide whether to originate a loan or not. When an
originating bank partner originates a loan, it funds the loan through its own funding sources and may subsequently
offer and sell the loan to us. Pursuant to our agreements with these partners, we are obligated to purchase the loans
facilitated through our platform that our partner offers us and our obligation is secured by cash deposits. To date, we
have purchased all of the loans facilitated through our platform and originated by our originating bank partners.
When we purchase a loan from an originating bank partner, the purchase price is equal to the outstanding principal
balance of the loan, plus a fee and any accrued interest. The originating bank partner also retains an interest in the
loans purchased by us through a loan performance fee that is payable by us on the aggregate principal amount of a
loan that is paid by a consumer. See Note 14. Fair Value of Financial Assets and Liabilities for more information on
the performance fee liability.
We are also able to originate loans directly under our lending, servicing, and brokering licenses in Canada
and across various states in the U.S. through our consolidated subsidiaries. We originated approximately$817.1
millionand$257.7 millionof loans in Canada for the years endedJune 30, 2022and June 30, 2021, respectively.
We directly originated loans in the U.S. pursuant to our state licenses of approximately$2.5 billionand$336.1
million, for the years endedJune 30, 2022and June 30, 2021, respectively. For the year ended June 30, 2022, we
self-originated 21% of total loan origination volumethrough our state and other licenses, compared to7%for the
year endedJune 30, 2021.
We act as the servicer on all loans that we originate directly or purchase from our originating bank partners
and earn a servicing fee on loans we sell to our funding sources. We do not sell the servicing rights on any of the
loans, allowing us to control the consumer experience end-to-end. To allow for flexible staffing to support overflow
and seasonal traffic, we partner with several sub-servicers to manage customer care, first priority collections, and
third-party collections in accordance with our policies and procedures.

Our Funding Sources

We maintain a capital-efficient model through a diverse set of funding sources. When we originate a loan
directly or purchase a loan originated by our originating bank partners, we often utilize warehouse facilities with
certain lenders to finance our lending activities or loan purchases. We sell the loans we originate or purchase from
our originating bank partners to whole loan buyers and securitization investors through forward flow arrangements
and securitization transactions, and earn servicing fees from continuing to act as the servicer on the loans.

Key Operating Metrics

We collect and analyze operating and financial data of our business to assess our performance, formulate
financial projections, and make strategic decisions. In addition to revenue, net (loss) income, and other results under
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”), the following tables set forth key
operating metrics we use to evaluate our business.

GMV

We measure GMV to assess the volume of transactions that take place on our platform. We define GMV as
the total dollar amount of all transactions on the Affirm platform during the applicable period, net of refunds. GMV
does not represent revenue earned by us. However, the GMV processed through our platform is an indicator of the
success of our merchants and the strength of our platform.For the year ended June 30, 2022, GMV was $15.5
billion, which represents an increase of approximately 87% as compared to $8.3 billion for the year ended June 30,
2021. For the year ended June 30, 2021, GMV was $8.3 billion, which represents an increase of approximately 79%
as compared to $4.6 billion for the year ended June 30, 2020.

We assess consumer adoption and engagement by the number of active consumers across our platform.
Active consumers are the primary measure of the size of our network. We define an active consumer as a consumer
who engages in at least one transaction on our platform during the 12 months prior to the measurement date. As of
June 30, 2022, we had 14.0 million active consumers, representing an increase of approximately 96% compared to
7.1 million as of June 30, 2021, and approximately 97% compared to 3.6 million as of June 30, 2020. Active
consumer includes users on the PayBright and Returnly platforms during the twelve months prior to the respective
measurement dates.

Transactions per Active Consumer

We believe the value of our network is amplified with greater consumer engagement and repeat usage,
highlighted by increased transactions per active consumer. Transactions per active consumer is defined as the
average number of transactions that an active consumer has conducted on our platform during the 12 months prior to
the measurement date. As of June 30, 2022, we had approximately 3.0 transactions per active consumer, an increase
of approximately 31% compared to June 30, 2021 and an increase of 41% compared to June 30, 2020. Transactions
per active consumer includes transactions on the PayBright and Returnly platforms during the twelve months prior
to the respective measurement dates.

APPENDIX III MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF AFFIRM

Factors Affecting Our Performance

Expanding our Network, Diversity, and Mix of Funding Relationships

Our capital efficient funding model is integral to the success of our platform. As we scale the number of
transactions on our network and grow GMV, we maintain a variety of funding relationships in order to support our
network. Our diversified funding relationships include warehouse facilities, securitization trusts, forward flow
arrangements, and partnerships with banks. Given the short duration and strong performance of our assets, funding
can be recycled quickly, resulting in a high-velocity, capital efficient funding model. We have continued to reduce
the percentage of our equity capital required to fund our total platform portfolio from approximately 4% as of
June 30, 2021, to approximately 3% as of June 30, 2022. The mix of on-balance sheet and off-balance sheet funding
is a function of both how we choose to allocate loan volume and the available supply of capital, both of which may
also impact our results in any given period.

Mix of Business on Our Platform

The mix of products that our merchants offer and our consumers purchase in any period affects our
operating results. In addition, shifts in volume among merchants in any period also affects our operating results.
These mix impacts affect GMV, revenue, our financial results, and our key operating metric performance for that
period. Differences in product mix relate to different loan durations, APR mix, and varying proportion of 0% APR
versus interest-bearing financings.
Differences in merchant mix relate to the variations in the product and economic terms of the commercial
agreements among our merchants. For example, our low average order value (“AOV”) products generally benefit
from shorter duration, but also have lower revenue as a percentage of GMV when compared to high AOV products.
Merchant mix shifts are driven in part by the products offered by the merchant, the economic terms negotiated with
the merchant, merchant-side activity relating to the marketing of their products, whether the merchant is fully
integrated within our network, and general economic conditions affecting consumer demand. Our revenue as a
percentage of GMV in any given period varies across products. As such, as we continue to expand our network to
include more merchants, revenue as a percentage of GMV will vary. In addition, our commercial agreement with
Shopify to offer Shop Pay Installments powered by Affirm and our Split Pay offering, a short-term payment plan
with 0% APR, will continue to impact the mix of our shorter duration, low AOV products. Differences in the mix of
high versus low AOV will also impact our results. For example, we expect that transactions per active consumer
may increase while revenue as a percentage of GMV may decline in the medium term to the extent that a greater
portion of our GMV comes from Split Pay and other low-AOV offerings.

Sales and Marketing Investment

We rely on the strength of our merchant relationships and positive user experience to develop our consumer
brand and grow the ubiquity of our platform. During the year ended June 30, 2022, we continued to grow our
investment in sales and marketing channels that we believe will drive further brand awareness and preference among
both consumers and merchants. Given the nature of our revenue, our investment in sales and marketing in a given
period may not impact results until subsequent periods. Additionally, given the increasingly competitive nature of
merchant acquisition, we have previously made, and expect that we may make, significant investments in retaining
and acquiring new merchants. We are focused on the effectiveness of sales and marketing spending and will
continue to be strategic in maintaining efficient consumer and merchant acquisition.

Seasonality

We experience seasonal fluctuations in our revenue as a result of consumer spending patterns. Historically,
our revenue has been the strongest during the second quarter of our fiscal year due to increases in retail commerce
during the holiday season. Adverse events that occur during these months could have a disproportionate effect on
our financial results for the fiscal year.

APPENDIX III MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF AFFIRM

Components of Results of Operations

Revenue

Merchant Network Revenue

Merchant partners (or merchants) are generally charged a fee based on GMV processed through the Affirm
platform. The fees vary depending on the individual arrangement between us and each merchant and on the terms of
the product offering. The fee is recognized at the point in time the merchant successfully confirms the transaction,
which is when the terms of the executed merchant agreement are fulfilled.We may originate certain loans via our
wholly-owned subsidiaries, with zero or below market interest rates. In these instances, the par value of the loans
originated is in excess of the fair market value of such loans, resulting in a loss, which we record as a reduction to
merchant network revenue. In certain cases, the losses incurred on loans originated for a merchant may exceed the
total network revenue earned on those loans. We record the excess loss amounts as a sales and marketing expense.
During the years ended June 30, 2022, 2021, and 2020 we generated 34%, 44%, and 50% of our revenue,
respectively, from merchant network fees.

Virtual Card Network Revenue

A smaller portion of our revenue comes from our Virtual Card product. We have agreements with issuer
processors to facilitate transactions through the issuance of virtual debit cards to be used by consumers at checkout.
Consumers can apply for a virtual debit card through the Affirm app and, upon approval, receive a single-use virtual
debit card to be used for their purchase online or offline at a non-integrated merchant. The virtual debit card is
funded at the time a transaction is authorized using cash held by the issuer processor in a reserve fund. We, or our
originating bank partner, then originates a loan to the consumer once the transaction is confirmed by the merchant.
The non-integrated merchants are charged interchange fees by the issuer processor for virtual debit card transactions,
as with all debit card purchases, and the issuer processor shares a portion of this revenue with us. We also leverage
this issuer processor as a means of integrating certain merchants. Similarly, for these arrangements with integrated
merchants, the merchant is charged interchange fees by the issuer processor and the issuer processor shares a portion
of this revenue with us. This revenue is recognized as a percentage of both our captured volume transacted on the
payment processor network and net interchange income, and this revenue related to net interchange income is
presented net of associated processing fees. We generated 7%, 6%, and 4% of our revenue from virtual card network
fees for the years ended June 30, 2022, 2021, and 2020, respectively.

Interest Income

We also earn revenue through interest earned on loans facilitated through our platform. Interest income
includes interest charged to consumers over the term of the consumers’ loans based on the principal outstanding and
is calculated using the effective interest method. In addition, interest income includes the amortization of any
discounts or premiums on loan receivables created upon either the purchase of a loan from our originating bank
partners or the origination of a loan. These discounts and premiums are accreted or amortized over the life of the
loan using the effective interest method and represented 35%, 31%, and 19% of total interest income for the years
ended June 30, 2022, 2021, and 2020, respectively. During the years ended June 30, 2022, 2021, and 2020,
respectively, we generated 39%, 37%, and 37% of our revenue from interest income, respectively.

Gain on Sales of Loans

We sell a portion of the loans we originate or purchase from our originating bank partners to third-party
investors. We recognize a gain or loss on sale of such loans as the difference between the proceeds received,
adjusted for initial recognition of servicing assets and liabilities obtained at the date of sale, and the carrying value of
the loan. During the years ended June 30, 2022, 2021, and 2020, we generated 15%, 10%, and 6% of our revenue
from gain on sales of loans.
64

– III-38 –

APPENDIX III MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF AFFIRM

Servicing Income

We earn a specified fee from providing professional services to manage loan portfolios on behalf of our
third-party loan owners. Under the servicing agreements with our third-party loan owners, we are entitled to collect
servicing fees on the loans that we service, which are paid monthly based upon an annual fixed percentage of the
outstanding loan portfolio balance. Servicing income also includes fair value adjustments for servicing assets and
servicing liabilities. During the years ended June 30, 2022, 2021, and 2020, we generated 5%, 3%, and 3% of our
revenue from servicing income, respectively.
We expect our revenue may vary from period to period based on, among other things, the timing of
onboarding and size of new merchants, the mix of 0% APR loans versus interest-bearing loans with simple interest,
loan funding strategy and mix, type and mix of products that our merchants offer to their customers, the rate of
repeat transactions, transaction volume, and seasonality of or fluctuations in usage of our platform.

Operating Expenses

Our operating expenses consist of the loss on loan purchase commitment made to our originating bank
partners, the provision for credit losses, funding costs, processing and servicing, technology and data analytics, sales
and marketing, and general and administrative expenses. Salaries and personnel-related costs, including benefits,
bonuses, stock-based compensation expense and occupancy, comprise a significant component of several of these
expense categories. An allocation of overhead, such as rent and other overhead, is based on employee headcount and
included in processing and servicing, technology and data analytics, sales and marketing, and general and
administrative expenses.
As of June 30, 2022, we had 2,552 employees, compared to 1,641 employees as of June 30, 2021. We
increased our headcount and personnel related costs across our business in order to support our growth expansion
strategy. We expect headcount to continue to increase during fiscal year 2023 given our focus on growth and
expansion.

Loss on Loan Purchase Commitment

We purchase certain loans from our originating bank partners that are processed through our platform and
our originating bank partners put back to us. Under the terms of the agreements with our originating bank partners,
we are generally required to pay the principal amount plus accrued interest for such loans. In certain instances, our
originating bank partners may originate loans with zero or below market interest rates that we are required to
purchase. In these instances, we may be required to purchase the loan for a price in excess of the fair market value of
such loans, which results in a loss. These losses are recognized as loss on loan purchase commitment in our
consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. These costs are incurred on a per loan basis.

Provision for Credit Losses

Provision for credit losses consists of amounts charged against income during the period to maintain an
allowance for credit losses. Our allowance for credit losses represents our estimate of the credit losses inherent in
our loans held for investment and is based on a variety of factors, including the composition and quality of the
portfolio, loan specific information gathered through our collection efforts, current economic conditions, future
reasonable and supportable forecasts, and our historical net charge-off and loss experience. These costs are incurred
on a per loan basis.

Funding Costs

Funding costs consist of interest expense and the amortization of fees for certain borrowings including on
balance sheet VIEs and sale and repurchase agreements, and other costs incurred in connection with funding the
purchases and originations of loans. Amortization of debt issuance costs totaled $16.2 million, $6.4 million, and $2.3
million for the years ended June 30, 2022, 2021, and 2020, respectively.
65

– III-39 –

APPENDIX III MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF AFFIRM

Processing and Servicing

Processing and servicing expense consists primarily of payment processing fees, third-party customer
support and collection expense, salaries and personnel-related costs of our customer care team, platform fees, and
allocated overhead. Payment processing costs are primarily driven by the number and dollar value of consumer
repayments which grow as the number of transactions and GMV processed on our platform increases. Customer care
loan servicing costs are primarily staffing costs related to third-party and in-house loan servicing agents, the demand
for which generally increases with the number of transactions on our platform. Collection fees are fees paid to
agencies as percentages of the dollars of repayment they recuperate from borrowers whose loans had previously
been charged off. Platform fees are revenue sharing fees paid to our e-commerce platform partners.

Technology and Data Analytics

Technology and data analytics expense consists primarily of the salaries, stock-based compensation, and
personnel-related costs of our engineering and product employees as well as our credit and analytics employees who
develop our proprietary risk model, which totaled $254.6 million, $171.5 million, and $75.8 million for the years
ended June 30, 2022, 2021, and 2020, respectively.
Additionally, for the years ended June 30, 2022, 2021, and 2020, $133.7 million, $29.0 million, and $17.1
million, respectively, of salaries and personnel costs that relate to the creation of internally-developed software were
capitalized into property, equipment and software, net on the consolidated balance sheets, and amortized into
technology and data analytics expense over the useful life of the developed software. This amortization expense
totaled $23.9 million, $10.3 million, and $5.5 million for the years ended June 30, 2022, 2021, and 2020,
respectively. Additional technology and data analytics expenses include platform infrastructure and hosting costs,
third-party data acquisition expenses, amortization of intangible assets, and expenses related to the maintenance of
existing technology assets and our technology platform as a whole.

Sales and Marketing

Sales and marketing costs consist of the expense related to warrants and other share-based payments
granted to our enterprise partners, salaries and personnel-related costs, as well as costs of general marketing and
promotional activities, promotional event programs, sponsorships, and allocated overhead. In July 2020, we
recognized an asset in connection with a commercial agreement with Shopify in which we granted warrants in
exchange for their promotion of the Affirm platform with potential new merchant partners. This asset represents the
probable future economic benefit to be realized over the expected benefit period and is valued based on the fair
value of the warrants on the grant date. The expected benefit period of the asset was initially estimated to be four
years, and the remaining useful life of the asset is reevaluated each reporting period. During the year ended June 30,
2022 the remaining expected benefit period was extended by two years upon the execution of an amendment to the
commercial agreement with Shopify which extended the term of the agreement.
In November 2021, we entered into a commercial agreement with Amazon and granted warrants in
exchange for certain exclusivity provisions and the benefit of acquiring new users. In connection with the
agreements, we recognized an asset associated with the portion of the warrants that were fully vested upon execution
of the agreement. The asset is valued based on the fair value of the warrants on the grant date and represents the
probable future economic benefit to be realized over the approximately 3.2 year remaining initial term of the
commercial agreement. For the year ended June 30, 2022, we recognized $281.0 million of expenses related to the
warrants within sales and marketing expense, respectively, which included the amortization expense of the
commercial agreement asset and the expense based upon the grant-date fair value for the warrant shares that vested
during the period. For the year ended June 30, 2022, the expense related to warrants and other share-based payments
comprised 64% of sales and marketing expenses, compared to 36% for the year ended June 30, 2021.
66

– III-40 –

APPENDIX III MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF AFFIRM

Additionally, in order to continue to expand our consumer base, we may originate certain loans via our
wholly-owned subsidiaries with zero or below market interest rates. In these instances, the par value of the loans
originated is in excess of the fair market value of such loans, resulting in a loss, which we record as a reduction to
merchant network revenue. In certain cases, the losses incurred on loans originated for a merchant may exceed the
total network revenue earned on those loans. We record the excess loss amounts as a sales and marketing expense.
These losses totaled $19.8 million, during the year ended June 30, 2022, compared to $1.7 million for the year ended
June 30, 2021. We expect that our sales and marketing expense will continue to increase as we expand our sales and
marketing efforts to drive our growth, expansion, and diversification.

General and Administrative

General and administrative expenses consist primarily of expenses related to our finance, legal, risk
operations, human resources, and administrative personnel. General and administrative expenses also include costs
related to fees paid for professional services, including legal, tax and accounting services, allocated overhead, and
certain discretionary expenses incurred from operating our technology platform.
We continue to incur additional expenses as a result of operating as a public company, including costs to
comply with the rules and regulations applicable to companies listed on a national securities exchange, costs related
to compliance and reporting obligations pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC, and increased expenses for
insurance, investor relations, and professional services. We expect that our general and administrativeexpense will
increase in absolute dollars as our business grows.

Other Income and Expenses

Other (Expense) Income, Net

Other (expense) income, net consists primarily of interest earned on our money market funds included in
cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash, interest earned on securities available for sale, gains and losses
incurred on derivative agreements, amortization of convertible debt issuance cost and revolving debt facility
issuance costs, and fair value adjustments resulting from changes in the fair value of our contingent consideration
liability, primarily driven by changes in the market price of our Class A common stock.

Income Tax Expense

Our Income tax expense (benefit) consists of U.S. federal and state income taxes, Canadian federal and
provincial income taxes, and income taxes attributable to other foreign jurisdictions.

(1) Upon purchase of a loan from our originating bank partners at a price above the fair market value of the loan or upon the origination of a loan with a par value in excess of the fair market value of the loan, a discount is included in the amortized cost basis of the loan. For loans held for investment, this discount is amortized over the life of the loan into interest income. When a loan is sold to a third-party loan buyer or off-balance sheet securitization trust, the unamortized discount is released in full at the time of sale and recognized as part of the gain or loss on sales of loans. However, the cumulative value of the loss on loan purchase commitment or loss

Total Revenue, net for the year ended June 30, 2022 increased by $478.8 million or 55%, compared to the
year ended June 30, 2021. The increase is primarily due to an increase of $7.2 billion or 87% in GMV on our
platform during the year, from $8.3 billion for the year ended June 30, 2021 to $15.5 billion for the year ended
June 30, 2022. This increase in GMV was driven by the strong network effects of the expansion of our active
merchant base from 28,995 as of June 30, 2021 to 234,847 as of June 30, 2022, an increase in active consumers from
7.1 million as of June 30, 2021 to 14.0 million as of June 30, 2022, and an increase in average transactions per
consumer from 2.3 as of June 30, 2021 to 3.0 as of June 30, 2022.

APPENDIX III MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF AFFIRM

Merchant network revenue for the year ended June 30, 2022 increased by $79.0 million or 21%, compared
to the year ended June 30, 2021. Merchant network revenue as a percentage of GMV for the year ended June 30,
2022 decreased to 3.0% compared to 4.6% for the year ended June 30, 2021.
Merchant network revenue growth is generally correlated with both GMV growth and the mix of loans on
our platform as different loan characteristics are positively or negatively correlated with merchant fee revenue as a
percentage of GMV. In particular, merchant network revenue as a percentage of GMV typically increases with the
term length and AOV of our loans, and typically decreases with shorter duration and higher APR loans. Specifically,
long-term 0% APR loans typically carry higher merchant fees as a percentage of GMV and have higher AOVs.
The increase in merchant network revenue during the year ended June 30, 2022 was primarily driven by an
increase in GMV, partially offset by reductions in the concentration of long-term 0% APR loans, our highest
merchant fee category, which decreased from 21% of total GMV during the year ended June 30, 2021 to 11% during
the year ended June 30, 2022. For the year ended June 30, 2022, approximately 8%, of total revenue was driven by
our largest merchant partner by merchant network revenue, Peloton, for which we facilitate long-term 0% APR
loans with a higher merchant fee, compared with 20% of total revenue in the comparative period. More broadly, for
the year ended June 30, 2022, loans with term lengths greater than 12 months accounted for 20% of GMV,
compared to 29% for the year ended June 30, 2021, primarily due to the increased adoption of our Split Pay product.
AOV was lower at $403 for the year ended June 30, 2022, compared to $550 for the year ended June 30, 2021,
primarily due to the increased adoption of our Split Pay product.
The increases were partially offset by a reduction of merchant network revenue of $80.4 million for the
year ended June 30, 2022, associated with the creation of discounts upon the self-origination of loans with par values
in excess of the fair value of such loans, compared to $11.4 million during the year ended June 30, 2021. These
reductions to merchant network revenue are primarily due to our Split Pay product and our 0% APR lending
programs outside of the United States, which we self-originate. For the year ended June 30, 2022, we self-originated
$3.3 billion of loans, an increase of 453.9% compared to $0.6 billion during year ended June 30, 2021. While the
discounts created upon the origination of a loan reduce merchant network revenue at the time of origination, the
discounts are amortized into interest income over the life of the respective loans when retained on the balance sheet
and any unamortized discount is reflected in the cost basis when determining gain on sale of loans.
Virtual card network revenue for the year ended June 30, 2022 increased by $50.8 million or 102%,
compared to the year ended June 30, 2021. This increase was driven by an increase in GMV processed through our
issuer processor of 100% for the year ended June 30, 2022, due to increased activity on our virtual card-enabled
mobile application as well as growth in existing and new merchants integrated using our virtual card platform,
growing from 756 merchants as of June 30, 2021 to 1,099 merchants as of June 30, 2022.Virtual card network
revenue is also impacted by the mix of merchants as different merchants can have different interchange rates
depending on their industry or size, among other factors.
Interest income for the year ended June 30, 2022 increased by $201.5 million or 62%, compared to the year
ended June 30, 2021. Generally, interest income is correlated with the changes in the average balance of loans held
for investment, as we recognize interest on loans held for investment using the effective interest method over the life
of the loan. The average balance of loans held for investment increased by 27% to $2.3 billion for the year ended
June 30, 2022, compared to the same period in the prior fiscal year.
As an annualized percentage of average loans held for investment, total interest income increased from
approximately 18% during the year ended June 30, 2021 to 23% during the year ended June 30, 2022. This change
was driven by a decrease in the average proportion of 0% APR loans being held on our consolidated balance sheet as
a percentage of the average loans held for investment, which decreased from 46% during the year ended June 30,
2021 to 39% during the year ended June 30, 2022. The shift was largely due to increased concentration of loans with
large enterprise merchant partners; those loans tend to be interest-bearing.
We recognize interest income on 0% APR loans via the amortization of the loan discount. Short term 0%
APR loans, including Split Pay loans, carry higher annualized discounts as percentages of annualized loan balances
than longer term loans, and thus amortize more discount into interest income as percentages of unpaid principal
balance than longer term loans. Therefore, the change in the mix of 0% APR loans held for investment is also
70

– III-44 –

APPENDIX III MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF AFFIRM

contributing to the increase in interest income as an annualized percentage of average loans held for investment. The
total amortization of discounts on loans held for investment increased by $84.0 million or 83% for the year ended
June 30, 2022, compared with the year ended June 30, 2021. The amortization of discounts represented 35% of total
interest income for the year ended June 30, 2022, compared to 31% for the year ended June 30, 2021, respectively.
This increase included the amortization of discounts arising from self-originated loans held for investment of $106.1
million during the year ended June 30, 2022, which was $18.2 million for the year ended June 30, 2021.
Gain on sales of loans for the year ended June 30, 2022 increased by $106.5 million or 118%, compared
to the year ended June 30, 2021. We sold loans with an unpaid balance of $3.2 billion for the year ended June 30,
2021, and $7.1 billion for the year ended June 30, 2022, for which we retained servicing rights. This increase was
primarily due to higher loan sale volume to third-party loan buyers and off-balance sheet securitizations, favorable
loan sale pricing terms, and optimizing the allocation of loans to loan buyers with higher pricing terms. The
increase was partially offset by a reduction of $6.2 million due to the net impact of the servicing assets and
liabilities of the loans sold during the year ended June 30, 2022, compared to a reduction of $1.5 million for the
year ended June 30, 2021
Servicing income for the year ended June 30, 2022 increased by$41.1 millionor166%, compared to the
year endedJune 30, 2021. Thisincreasewas primarily due to an increase in the average unpaid principal balance of
loans owned by third-party loan owners, which increased from $1.8 billion during the year ended June 30, 2021 to
$3.6 billion during the year ended June 30, 2022. Additionally, we recognized an increase of servicing income of
$6.3 million related to the changes in fair value of servicing assets and liabilities during the year ended June 30,
2022, compared with a reduction to servicing income of $1.5 million during the year ended June 30, 2021.

Loss on loan purchase commitment for the year ended June 30, 2022 decreased by $42.6 million or 17%,
compared to the year ended June 30, 2021. This decrease was due to a decrease in the volume of long-term 0% APR
loans purchased from our originating bank partners compared to the prior period, which are purchased above fair
market value. The decrease in loss on loan purchase commitment is also impacted by changes in the estimate of fair
value of the loans driven primarily by the mix of loan terms. The differences in fair values and purchase values for
our loans are generally correlated with the term length, so the reduction in long term loans reduced the differences
between the estimates of fair value and purchase value. During the year ended June 30, 2022, we purchased $3,251.5

Provision for credit losses generally represents the amount of expense required to maintain the allowance
for credit losses on our consolidated balance sheet, which represents management’s estimate of future losses. In the
event that our loans outperform expectation and/or we reduce our expectation of credit losses in future periods, we
may release reserves and thereby reduce the allowance for credit losses, yielding income in the provision for credit
losses. The provision is determined by the change in estimates for future losses and the net charge-offs incurred in
the period. We record provision expense for each loan we retain as loans held for investment, whether we originate
the loan or purchase it from one of our originating bank partners.
Additionally, during the prior fiscal year, following the loss of our emerging growth company status, we
adoptedAccounting Standard Update (“ASU”) 2016-13, “Financial Instruments — Credit Losses (Topic 326)” using
the modified retrospective approach. The amendments replaced the incurred loss impairment methodology for
computing our allowance for credit losses with the current expected credit loss model ("CECL"), effective July 1,
2020. As part of this modified retrospective approach to adoption, we recorded an adjustment increasing the
provision for credit losses by $10.1 million for the year ended June 30, 2021.
During the year endedJune 30, 2022, the allowance as a percentage of loans held for investment increased
from 5.8% as of June 30, 2021 to 6.2% as of June 30, 2022, primarily due to a deconcentration of long-term, lower-
credit-risk 0% APR loans on our balance sheet and growth of new platforms and merchant partnerships with
generally higher expected losses. Prior year provision for credit losses was unusually low due to release of stressed
expected loss scenarios and the adoption of CECL. Those prior year impacts, combined with an overall larger loan
population, shifting product mix, and normalized credit environment, resulted in an increase inprovision for credit
losses expense of$189.4 millionor287%compared to the year ended June 30, 2021.

Funding costs for the year ended June 30, 2022 increased by $17.0 million or 32%, compared to the year
ended June 30, 2021. Funding costs for a given period are correlated with the sum of the average balance of funding
debt and the average balance of notes issued by securitization trusts. This increase was primarily due to the increase
of notes issued by securitization trusts during the current fiscal year, which bear interest at fixed rates. The average
balance of notes issued by securitization trusts during the year ended June 30, 2022 was $1,490.1 million, compared
with $747.0 million, during the year ended June 30, 2021. The average balance of funding debt for the year ended
June 30, 2022 was $677.0 million, compared with $752.6 million, during the year ended June 30, 2021. Combined,
average total debt for the year ended June 30, 2022 increased by $667.6 million or 45%, respectively, compared to
the year ended June 30, 2021 while the average reference interest rate increased by 163% during the period.

increase in personnel costs compared to the year ended June 30, 2021 primarily due to an increased headcount as we
continue to support our growth and technology platform as a whole. A portion of these personnel costs was stock-
based compensation, which accounted for a $39.9 million increase compared to the year ended June 30, 2021,
respectively, largely due to vesting of RSUs.
Additionally, there was a $51.9 million or 132%, increase in data infrastructure and hosting costs for the
year ended June 30, 2022, compared to the year ended June 30, 2021, due to increased capacity requirements of our
technology platform driven by increase in active users and transactions per active consumer. There was a $12.8
million or 75%, increase in underwriting data provider costs for the year ended June 30, 2022, compared to the year
ended June 30, 2021, due to an increase in applications, partially offset by cost improvements achieved as a result of
contract renegotiations. Furthermore, amortization of internally-developed software increased by $13.6 million or
132%, compared to the year ended June 30, 2021, primarily as a result of an increase in the number of capitalized

APPENDIX III MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF AFFIRM

In evaluating our ability to recover our deferred tax assets in the jurisdiction from which they arise, we
consider all available positive and negative evidence, including our historical financial performance, projections of
future taxable income - incorporating any changes in circumstance for the business, future reversals of existing
taxable temporary differences, and any carryback available. The assumptions about future taxable income require
the use of Management’s judgment and are consistent with the plans and estimates we are using to manage the
underlying businesses, yet they are subject to change from period to period.
As a result of (i) the integration and consolidation of our PayBright business into and with Affirm’s
Canadian business, which makes PayBright’s tax attributes utilizable against future income in the combined
Canadian operations, (ii) the expansion of our overall business in Canada, and (iii) other objectively verifiable
positive evidence that became available during the year ended June 30, 2022 - all of which we have concluded is
sufficient to outweigh the existing negative evidence, including the presence of a three-year cumulative loss
attributable to the related foreign jurisdiction, we have determined that it is more likely than not that our foreign
deferred tax assets will be realized and a valuation allowance is not required.
Even though our determination that our foreign deferred tax assets will more likely than not be realized is
primarily based on sufficient, objectively verifiable positive evidence, consideration was still required for the
underlying projections of future income. If our assumptions change in the future and we determine that we will not
be able to realize our foreign deferred tax assets, the tax benefits related to any release of the valuation allowance on
foreign deferred tax assets as of June 30, 2022 will be reversed and recorded as an increase of income tax expense
for the period.
We continue to recognize a full valuation allowance against our U.S. federal and state net deferred tax
assets. A significant piece of objective negative evidence evaluated was the cumulative loss incurred by the
Company for the years ended June 30, 2022, 2021, and 2020. The presence of a three-year cumulative loss limits the
ability to consider other subjective evidence, such as our expectations of future taxable income and projections for
growth, and the other positive evidence available is not sufficient to outweigh the existing negative evidence at this
time.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Sources and Uses of Funds

We have incurred losses since our inception, accumulating a deficit of $1.6 billion and $0.9 billion as of
June 30, 2022 and June 30, 2021, respectively. We have historically financed the majority of our operating and
capital needs through the sales of equity securities, borrowings from debt facilities and convertible debt, third-party
loan sale arrangements, and cash flows from operations. In September and October 2020, we issued an aggregate of
21,836,687 shares of Series G preferred stock for aggregate cash proceeds of $435.1 million. On January 15, 2021,
we closed an initial public offering of our Class A common stock with cash proceeds, before expenses, of $1.3
billion. On November 23, 2021, we issued the 2026 Notes, generating cash proceeds of $1.7 billion.
As of June 30, 2022, our principal sources of liquidity were available for sale securities and cash and cash
equivalents, available capacity from revolving debt facilities, revolving securitizations, forward flow loan sale
arrangements, and certain cash flows from our operations. We believe that our existing cash balances, available
capacity under our revolving debt facilities, revolving securitizations and off-balance sheet loan sale arrangements,
and cash from operations, are sufficient to meet both our existing operating, working capital, and capital expenditure
requirements and our currently planned growth for at least the next 12 months. We cannot provide assurance,
however, that our business will generate sufficient cash flows from operations or that future borrowings will be
available to us in an amount sufficient to enable us to fund our liquidity needs in the long-term. Our ability to do so
depends on prevailing economic conditions and other factors, many of which are beyond our control. Our on- and
off-balance sheet facilities provide funding subject to various constraining limits on the financed portfolios. These
limits are generally tied to loan-level attributes such as loan term, credit quality, and interest rate, as well as
borrower- and merchant-level attributes.

APPENDIX III MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF AFFIRM

Cash and Cash Equivalents

As of June 30, 2022, we had approximately $1.3 billion of cash and cash equivalents to fund our future
operations compared to approximately $1.5 billion as of June 30, 2021. Our cash and cash equivalents were
comprised of operating bank accounts, money market funds, certificates of deposits, corporate bonds, and other
commercial paper with maturities less than three months. Cash and cash equivalents are held primarily for continued
investment in our business, for working capital purposes, and to facilitate a portion of our lending activities. Our
policy is to invest cash in excess of our immediate working capital requirements in liquid investments and deposit
accounts to preserve the principal balance and maintain adequate liquidity.

Restricted Cash

Restricted cash consists primarily of: (i) deposits restricted by standby letters of credit for office leases and
merchant partnership agreements; (ii) funds held in accounts as collateral for our originating bank partners; and
(iii) servicing funds held in accounts contractually restricted by agreements with warehouse credit facilities and
third-party loan owners. We have no ability to draw on such funds as long as they remain restricted under the
applicable arrangements.

Securities, Available for Sale

As of June 30, 2022, we had $1.6 billion of investments in marketable debt securities classified as
available-for-sale, compared to $16.2 million as of June 30, 2021. Our securities available for sale at fair value
primarily consist of certificates of deposits, corporate bonds, commercial paper, and government bonds with
maturities greater than three months. Investment securities traditionally provide a secondary source of liquidity since
they can be converted into cash in a timely manner.

Funding Debt

The following table summarizes our funding debt facilities as of June 30, 2022. The funding debt consists
of warehouse credit facilities, other funding facilities, revolving credit facilities, and repurchase liabilities:

Warehouse Credit Facilities

Through trusts, we entered into warehouse credit facilities with certain lenders to finance the purchase and
origination of our loans. These trusts are consolidated variable interest entities (“VIEs”), and each trust entered into
a credit agreement and security agreement with a commercial bank as administrative agent and a national banking
association as collateral trustee and paying agent. Borrowings under these agreements are referred to as funding
debt. These credit agreements contain operating covenants, including limitations on the incurrence of certain
indebtedness and liens, restrictions on certain intercompany transactions, and limitations on the amount of dividends
and stock repurchases. Our funding debt facilities include concentration limits for various loan characteristics
including credit quality, product mix, geography, and merchant concentration. As of June 30, 2022, we were in

Overview

We are building the next generation platform for digital and mobile-first commerce. We believe that by
using modern technology, superior engineering talent, and a mission-driven approach, we can reinvent payments and
commerce. Our solutions, which are built on trust and transparency, make it easier for consumers to spend
responsibly and with confidence, easier for merchants to convert sales and grow, and easier for commerce to thrive.
Our point-of-sale solutions allow consumers to pay for purchases in fixed amounts without deferred
interest, late fees, or penalties. We empower consumers to pay over time rather than paying for a purchase entirely
upfront. This increases consumers’ purchasing power and gives them more control and flexibility. Our platform
facilitates both true 0% APR payment options and interest-bearing loans. On the merchant side, we offer commerce
enablement, demand generation, and customer acquisition tools. Our solutions empower merchants to more
efficiently promote and sell their products, optimize their customer acquisition strategies, and drive incremental
sales. We also provide valuable product-level data and insights — information that merchants cannot easily get
elsewhere — to better inform their strategies. Finally, our consumer app unlocks the full suite of Affirm products for
a delightful end-to-end consumer experience. Consumers can use our app to apply for installment loans, and upon
approval, they can use the Affirm Card digitally online or in-stores to complete a purchase. Additionally, consumers
can manage the pre- and post purchase split of Affirm Card transactions into loan, manage payments, open a high-
yield savings account, and access a personalized marketplace.
Our Company is predicated on the principles of simplicity, transparency, and putting people first. By
adhering to these principles, we have built enduring, trust-based relationships with consumers and merchants that we
believe will set us up for long-term, sustainable success. We believe our innovative approach uniquely positions us
to define the future of commerce and payments.
Technology and data are at the core of everything we do. Our expertise in sourcing, aggregating, and
analyzing data has been what we believe to be the key competitive advantage of our platform since our founding.
We believe our proprietary technology platform and data give us a unique advantage in pricing risk. We use data to
inform our risk scoring in order to generate value for our consumers, merchants, and capital partners. We also
prioritize building our own technology and investing in product and engineering talent as we believe these are
enduring competitive advantages that are difficult to replicate. Our solutions use the latest in machine learning,
artificial intelligence, cloud-based technologies, and other modern tools to create differentiated and scalable
products.

Our Financial Model

Our Revenue Model

From merchants, we earn a fee when we help them convert a sale and facilitate a transaction. While
merchant fees depend on the individual arrangement between us and each merchant and vary based on the terms of
the product offering, we generally earn larger merchant fees on 0% APR financing products. For the years ended
June 30, 2023, 2022, and 2021, Pay-in-4 represented 19%, 22%, and 11%, respectively, of total GMV facilitated
through our platform and 0% APR Core loans represented 13%, 21%, and 32%, respectively, of total GMV
facilitated through our platform.
From consumers, we earn interest income on the simple interest loans that we originate or purchase from
our originating bank partners. Interest rates charged to our consumers vary depending on the transaction risk,
creditworthiness of the consumer, the repayment term selected by the consumer, the amount of the loan, and the
individual arrangement with a merchant. Because our consumers are never charged deferred or compounding
interest, late fees, or penalties on the loans, we are not incentivized to profit from our consumers’ hardships. In
addition, interest income includes the amortization of any discounts or premiums on loan receivables created upon
either the purchase of a loan from one of our originating bank partners or the origination of a loan. For the years
ended June 30, 2023, 2022, and 2021, interest bearing loans represented 68%, 58%, and 57% of total GMV
facilitated through our platform, respectively.
In order to accelerate our ubiquity, we facilitate the issuance of virtual cards directly to consumers through
our app, allowing them to shop with merchants that may not yet be fully integrated with Affirm. Similarly, we also
facilitate the issuance of the Affirm Card, a debit card that can be used physically or virtually and which allows
consumers to link a bank account to pay in full, or pay later by accessing credit through the Affirm App. When these
cards are used over established card networks, we earn a portion of the interchange fee from the transaction.

Our Loan Origination and Servicing Model

When a consumer applies for a loan through our platform, the loan is underwritten using our proprietary
risk model. Once approved for the loan, the consumer then selects their preferred repayment option. A portion of
these loans are funded and issued by our originating bank partners, which include Cross River Bank, an FDIC-
insured New Jersey state-chartered bank, and Celtic Bank, an FDIC-insured Utah state-chartered industrial bank.
These partnerships allow us to benefit from our partners’ ability to originate loans under their banking licenses while
complying with various federal, state, and other laws. Under this arrangement, we must comply with our originating
bank partners' credit policies and underwriting procedures, and our originating bank partners maintain ultimate
authority to decide whether to originate a loan or not. When an originating bank partner originates a loan, it funds
the loan through its own funding sources and may subsequently offer and sell the loan to us. Pursuant to our
agreements with these partners, we are obligated to purchase the loans facilitated through our platform that such
partner offers us and our obligation is secured by cash deposits. To date, we have purchased all of the loans
facilitated through our platform and originated by our originating bank partners. When we purchase a loan from an

APPENDIX III MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF AFFIRM

originating bank partner, the purchase price is equal to the outstanding principal balance of the loan, plus a fee and
any accrued interest. The originating bank partner also retains an interest in the loans purchased by us through a loan
performance fee that is payable by us on the aggregate principal amount of a loan that is paid by a consumer. See
Note 13. Fair Value of Financial Assets and Liabilities for more information on the performance fee liability.
We are also able to originate loans directly under our lending, servicing, and brokering licenses in Canada
and across several states in the U.S. through our consolidated subsidiaries.Wedirectly originated approximately
$3.7 billion, or 18%, and $3.3 billion, or 21%, of loans for the years ended June 30, 2023 and June 30, 2022,
respectively.
We act as the servicer on all loans that we originate directly or purchase from our originating bank partners
and earn a servicing fee on loans we sell to our funding sources. In the normal course of business, we do not sell the
servicing rights on any of the loans. To allow for flexible staffing to support overflow and seasonal traffic, we
partner with several sub-servicers to manage customer care, first priority collections, and third-party collections in
accordance with our policies and procedures.

Factors Affecting Our Performance

Our performance has been and may continue to be affected by many factors, including those identified
below, as well as the factors discussed in the section titled “Risk Factors” in this Form 10-K.

Expanding our Network, Diversity, and Mix of Funding Relationships

Our capital efficient funding model is integral to the success of our platform. As we scale the number of
transactions on our network and grow GMV, we maintain a variety of funding relationships in order to support our
network. Our diversified funding relationships include warehouse credit facilities, securitization trusts, forward flow
arrangements, and partnerships with banks. Given the short duration and strong performance of our assets, funding
can be recycled quickly, resulting in a high-velocity, capital efficient funding model. While we have continued to
improve our equity capital efficiency, the percentage of our equity capital as a percentage of our total platform
portfolio increased from approximately 3% as of June 30, 2022, to approximately 5% as of June 30, 2023. The
increase was due to an increase in on-balance sheet loans, and a lower percentage of our on balance sheet loans
funded through securitizations, which generally require a lower percentage of equity capital compared to our
warehouse credit facilities. This shift in our funding mix in response to the current market environment given our
ability to allocate loans to warehouse credit facilities with better economic terms at a given time to support the
growth of our business while optimizing cost of funds. The mix of on-balance sheet and off-balance sheet funding is
a function of how we choose to allocate loan volume, which is determined by the economic arrangements and
supply of capital available to us, both of which may also impact our results in any given period.

Mix of Business on Our Platform

The shifts in volume among merchants and the products that our merchants offer and our consumers
purchase in any period affects our operating results. These mix impacts GMV, revenue, our financial results, and our
key operating metric performance for that period. Differences in loan product mix result in varying loan durations,
APR, and mix of 0% APR and interest-bearing financings.
Product and economic terms of commercial agreements vary among our merchants. For example, our low
average order value (“AOV”) products generally benefit from shorter duration, but also have lower revenue as a
percentage of GMV when compared to high AOV products. Merchant mix shifts are driven in part by the products
offered by the merchant, the economic terms negotiated with the merchant, merchant-side activity relating to the
marketing of their products, whether or not the merchant is fully integrated within our network, and general
economic conditions affecting consumer demand. Our revenue as a percentage of GMV in any given period varies
across products. As such, as we continue to expand our network to include more merchants, revenue as a percentage
of GMV may vary. In addition, our commercial agreement with Shopify to offer Shop Pay Installments powered by
Affirm and our Pay-in-4 offering may continue to impact the mix of our shorter duration, low AOV products.
61

– III-53 –

APPENDIX III MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF AFFIRM

Differences in the mix of high versus low AOV may also impact our results. For example, we expect that
transactions per active consumer may increase while revenue as a percentage of GMV may decline in the medium
term to the extent that a greater portion of our GMV comes from Pay-in-4 and other low-AOV offerings.

Seasonality

We experience seasonal fluctuations in our business as a result of consumer spending patterns. Historically,
our GMV has been the strongest during the second quarter of our fiscal year due to increases in retail commerce
during the holiday season. Despite these higher GMV levels, in fiscal 2023 and 2022, we generated less in period
revenue as a percentage of GMV during our second fiscal quarter due to the comparatively higher proportion of
interest bearing loans originated in the latter half of the period, which typically results in lower merchant network
revenue, which is recognized in period, and higher levels of interest income, which is recognized over a longer time
horizon. We expect these seasonal patterns to continue in future periods, and any adverse events that occur during
our second fiscal quarter could have a disproportionate effect on our financial results for the fiscal year.

Macroeconomic Environment

We regularly monitor the direct and indirect impacts of the current macroeconomic conditions on our
business, financial condition, and results of operations. During fiscal 2023, the macroeconomic environment
presented a number of challenges to our business. In response to continued inflationary pressure, the U.S. Federal
Reserve raised, and may continue to raise, the federal funds interest rate. Simultaneously, economic uncertainty and
the prospect of economic recession impacted consumer spending. These developments have affected, and may
continue to affect, our business and results of operations in the following ways:
  • Deceleration in consumer demand: We have experienced a deceleration in consumer demand for discretionary items, which has adversely impacted GMV growth.

  • Increased borrowing costs: Our costs of borrowing have increased, resulting in higher transaction costs.

  • Volatile capital markets: In response to volatile capital markets conditions, we have retained more loans on our balance sheet funded through our consolidated securitizations and warehouse lines in recent fiscal quarters. Retaining loans on our balance sheet leads to the recognition of interest income over the life of the loan, effectively delaying the revenue that would have been realized upon the loan’s sale.

  • Managing delinquency rates: We are continuously optimizing our underwriting to manage delinquency rates. While these actions have adversely affected our GMV growth rates during fiscal 2023, as of June 30, 2023, our 30-day delinquency rates for monthly installment loans were comparable to, and our allowance rates for loan losses improved over, those experienced as of June 30, 2022.

Macroeconomic factors can also cause fluctuations of available capital in our lending marketplace due to
shifts in the risk preferences of our lending partners and institutional investors or for other reasons. For example,
since the beginning of March 2023, there have been public reports of instability at certain financial institutions.
Despite the steps taken to date by U.S. and foreign agencies and institutions, the follow-on effects of this instability
are unknown and may lead to disruptions to the businesses and operations of our funding sources.

Restructuring Plan

On February 8, 2023, we committed to a restructuring plan designed to manage our operating expenses in
response to macroeconomic conditions and ongoing business prioritization efforts. As part of the plan, we reduced
our workforce by approximately 500 employees, representing approximately 19% of our employees at that time, and
vacated a portion of our leased San Francisco office. For further information, refer to Note 16. Restructuring and
other to the consolidated financial statements in this Form 10-K.

APPENDIX III MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF AFFIRM

Pricing Initiatives

We have begun implementing certain pricing initiatives that have the dual purpose of offsetting our
increased funding costs while also enabling us to responsibly extend access to credit to a larger number of
consumers. These pricing initiatives include the following:
  • increasing the maximum APR for loans facilitated on our platform from 30% to 36%;

  • increasing the merchant fees payable by some merchants on 0% APR financing products;

  • expanding the use of down payments and requested loan amounts;

  • offering merchant-subsidized low APR loans (4% to 9.99%) as an alternative to monthly 0% APR

  • programs; and

  • shortening loan lengths and minimum order sizes for monthly 0% APR programs.

Regulatory Developments

We are subject to the regulatory and enforcement authority of the Consumer Financial Protection Board
(the “CFPB”) as a facilitator, servicer, acquirer or originator of consumer credit. As such, the CFPB has in the past
requested reports concerning our organization, business conduct, markets, and activities, and we expect that the
CFPB will continue to do so from time to time in the future.
In addition, we expect the CFPB to begin to supervise us in the immediate future. The CFPB’s supervision
of us will enable it, among other things, to conduct comprehensive and rigorous examinations to assess our
compliance with consumer financial protection laws, which could result in investigations, enforcement actions,
regulatory fines and mandated changes to our business products, policies and procedures.

Key Operating Metrics

We focus on several key operating metrics to measure the performance of our business and help determine
our strategic direction. In addition to revenue, net loss, and other results under U.S. GAAP, the following tables set
forth key operating metrics we use to evaluate our business.

Gross merchandise volume (GMV) $

GMV

We measure GMV to assess the volume of transactions that take place on our platform. We define GMV as
the total dollar amount of all transactions on the Affirm platform during the applicable period, net of refunds. GMV
does not represent revenue earned by us; however, it is an indicator of the success of our merchants and the strength
of our platform.
For the year ended June 30, 2023, GMV was $20.2 billion, an increase of approximately 30% from $15.5
billion for the year ended June 30, 2022 and an increase of approximately 144% from $8.3 billion for the year ended
June 30, 2021. Overall, the increase in GMV was primarily driven by the expansion of our active merchant base and
increases in active consumers and the average number of transactions per consumer.
For the years ended June 30, 2023, 2022, and 2021, our top five merchants, including our largest platform
partner represented approximately 42%, 32%, and 30%, respectively, of total GMV. GMV attributable to Amazon
increased during each period but represented less than 20% of total GMV for all such periods. No other single
merchant or platform partner exceeded 20% of total GMV for the year ended June 30, 2023.

Active Consumers

We assess consumer adoption and engagement by the number of active consumers across our platform.
Active consumers are the primary measure of the size of our network. We define an active consumer as a consumer
who engages in at least one transaction on our platform during the 12 months prior to the measurement date.
As of June 30, 2023, we had approximately 16.5 million active consumers inclusive of 1.0 million active
consumers who only transacted on Returnly, which represented an increase of 18% compared to approximately 14.0
million as of June 30, 2022, and 131% compared to approximately 7.1 million as of June 30, 2021. The increase was
primarily due to a high retention rate of existing consumers and the acquisition of new consumers through an
expanding active merchant base.

Transactions per Active Consumer

We believe the value of our network is amplified with greater consumer engagement and repeat usage,
highlighted by increased transactions per active consumer. Transactions per active consumer is defined as the
average number of transactions that an active consumer has conducted on our platform during the 12 months prior to
the measurement date.
As of June 30, 2023, we had approximately 3.9 transactions per active consumer, an increase of 30%
compared to June 30, 2022 and an increase of 70% compared to June 30, 2021. This was primarily due to platform
growth and a higher frequency of repeat users driven by consumer engagement.

* Not meaningful

(1) Upon purchase of a loan from our originating bank partners at a price above the fair market value of the loan or upon the origination of a loan with a par value in excess of the fair market value of the loan, a discount is included in the amortized cost basis of the loan. For loans held for investment, this discount is amortized over the life of the loan into interest income. When a loan is sold to a third-party loan buyer or off-balance sheet securitization trust, the unamortized discount is released in full at the time of sale and recognized as part of the gain or loss on sales of loans. However, the cumulative value of the loss on loan purchase commitment or loss on loan origination, the interest income recognized over time from the amortization of discount while retained, and the release of discount into gain on sales of loans, together net to zero over the life of the loan.

Comparison of the Years Ended June 30, 2023 and 2022

Merchant Network Revenue

Merchant network revenue is impacted by both GMV and the mix of loans originated on our platform as
merchant fees vary based on loan characteristics. In particular, merchant network revenue as a percentage of GMV
typically increases with longer-term, non-interest-bearing loans with higher AOVs, and decreases with shorter-term,
interest-bearing loans with lower AOVs.
Merchant network revenue for the year ended June 30, 2023 increased by $49.1 million, or 11%, compared
to the same period in 2022. The increase is primarily attributed to an increase of $4.7 billion in GMV for the year
ended June 30, 2023. The increase in GMV is a result of the expansion of our active merchant base and consumers,
reaching approximately 254,000 and 16.5 million, respectively, as of June 30, 2023, up from approximately 235,000
and 14.0 million, respectively, as of June 30, 2022. Additionally, the average transactions per consumer increased
from 3.0 as of June 30, 2022 to 3.9 as of June 30, 2023. The increase in consumers and average transactions per
consumer is partially offset by a decrease in AOVs. For the year ended June 30, 2023 AOV was $318 down from
$374 for the same period in fiscal 2022. The decrease in AOV due to the diversification of our merchant base and
our initiative to drive repeat usage of our platform beyond one-time high AOV purchases.

Card Network Revenue

Card network revenue for the year ended June 30, 2023 increased by $18.6 million, or 19%, compared to
the same period in 2022. Card network revenue growth is correlated with the growth of GMV processed by our
issuer processors. As such, the increase is primarily driven by the $5.9 billion of GMV processed through our issuer
processors, an increase of 25% for the year ended June 30, 2023, as compared to the same period in 2022. This was
driven by increased card activity as well as growth in existing and new merchants using our card platform, growing
from approximately 1,100 merchants as of June 30, 2022 to approximately 1,300 merchants as of June 30, 2023.
66

– III-58 –

APPENDIX III MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF AFFIRM

Card network revenue is also impacted by the mix of merchants as different merchants can have different
interchange rates depending on their industry or size, among other factors.

Interest Income

Interest income for the year ended June 30, 2023 increased by $157.3 million, or 30%, compared to the
year ended June 30, 2022. Generally, interest income is correlated with changes in the average balance of loans held
for investment, as we recognize interest on loans held for investment using the effective interest method over the life
of the loan. The average balance of loans held for investment increased by 50% to $3.4 billion for the year ended
June 30, 2023, compared to the same period in fiscal 2022. The increase in loans held for investment on our
consolidated balance sheet was in response to the current market environment and our ability to allocate loans to
warehouse credit facilities with better economic terms while optimizing cost of funds. As a result of the increase in
loans held for investment on our consolidated balance sheet, interest income from interest-bearing loans increased
by $195.2 million, or 53%, compared to the same period in 2022. This increase was partially due to our recent
pricing initiatives, including the increase of the maximum APR for loans facilitated on our platform from 30% to
36% and the introduction of merchant-subsidized low APR loans (4% to 9.99%) as an alternative to monthly 0%
APR programs.

Gain on Sale of Loans

Gain on sales of loans for the year ended June 30, 2023 decreased by $8.1 million, or 4%, compared to the
same period in2022. The decrease was partially driven by higher benchmark interest rates and a more conservative
credit outlook, which impacted pricing terms for loan sales. The decrease was partially offset by an increase in loan
sale volume to third-party loan buyers. We sold loans with a unpaid principal balance of $7.5 billion for the year
ended June 30, 2023, compared to $7.1 billion for the year ended June 30, 2022.

Servicing Income

Servicing income includes net servicing fee revenue and fair value adjustments for servicing assets and
liabilities, and is recognized for loan portfolios sold to third party loan buyers and for loans held within our off
balance sheet securitizations. Servicing fee revenue varies by contractual servicing fee arrangement and is earned as
a percentage of the average unpaid principal balance of loans held by each counterparty where we have a servicing
agreement. We reduce servicing income for certain fees we are required to pay per our contractual servicing
arrangement.
With respect to fair value adjustments, we remeasure the fair value of servicing assets and liabilities each
period and recognize the change in fair value in servicing income. We utilize a discounted cash flow approach to
remeasure the fair value of servicing rights. Because we earn servicing income based on the outstanding principal
balance of the portfolio, fair value adjustments are impacted by the timing and amount of loan repayments. As such,
over the term of each loan portfolio sold, fair value adjustments for servicing assets will decrease servicing income
and fair value adjustments for servicing liabilities will increase servicing income. We discuss our valuation
methodology and significant Level 3 inputs for servicing assets and liabilities within Note 13. Fair Value of
Financial Assets and Liabilities.
Servicing income for the year ended June 30, 2023 increased by $21.7 million, or 33%, compared to the
same period in 2022. The increase was primarily due to the average unpaid principal balance of loans owned by
third-party loan owners, which increased from $3.6 billion during the year ended June 30, 2022 to $4.5 billion
during the year ended June 30, 2023. In addition to the increase in servicing income related to the unpaid principal
balance of loans outstanding, we recognized a gain of $8.3 million related to changes in fair value of servicing assets
and liabilities during the year ended June 30, 2023, an increase of $2.0 million, compared to the same period in
2022.

APPENDIX III MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF AFFIRM

Loss on Loan Purchase Commitment

We purchase certain loans from our originating bank partners that are processed through our platform and
our originating bank partners put back to us. Under the terms of the agreements with our originating bank partners,
we are generally required to pay the principal amount plus accrued interest for such loans. In certain instances, our
originating bank partners may originate loans with zero or below market interest rates that we are required to
purchase. In these instances, we may be required to purchase the loan for a price in excess of the fair market value of
such loans, which results in a loss. These losses are recognized as loss on loan purchase commitment in our
consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. These costs are incurred on a per loan basis.
Loss on loan purchase commitment for the year ended June 30, 2023 decreased by $63.8 million, or 31%,
compared to the same period in 2022. The decrease was due to a decrease in the volume of long-term 0% APR loans
purchased from our originating bank partners compared to the prior period, which are purchased above fair market
value. The difference between fair value and purchase price for our loans is generally correlated with the term length
and APR of the loans. Additionally, as the percentage of our portfolio shifts towards more interest-bearing loans,
loss on loan purchase commitment is expected to decrease as a percentage of the originated principal amount.
During the year ended June 30, 2023, we purchased $1.4 billion, of long-term 0% APR loan receivables from our
originating bank partners, which represented a decrease of $0.7 billion, or 33%, compared to thesame period in
2022.

Provision for Credit Losses

Provision for credit losses generally represents the amount of expense required to maintain the allowance
for credit losses on our consolidated balance sheet, which represents management’s estimate of future losses. In the
event that our loans outperform expectation and/or we reduce our expectation of credit losses in future periods, we
may release reserves and thereby reduce the allowance for credit losses, yielding income in the provision for credit
losses. The provision is determined based on our estimate of expected future losses on loans originated during the
period and held for investment on our balance sheet, changes in our estimate of future losses on loans outstanding as
of the end of the period and the net charge-offs incurred in the period.
Provision for credit losses increased by $76.6 million, or 30%, for the year ended June 30, 2023 compared
to the same period in 2022, driven by growth in the volume of loans held for investment and partially offset by
improvements in the credit quality of loans outstanding. Loans held for investment as of June 30, 2023 was $4.4
billion, an increase of $1.9 billion, or 76% as compared to the same period in 2022. The allowance for credit losses
as a percentage of loans held for investment decreased from 6.2% as of June 30, 2022 to 4.6% as of June 30, 2023,
primarily driven by improvements in credit quality of loans outstanding and repayment trends.

Funding Costs

Funding costs consist of interest expense and the amortization of fees for certain borrowings collateralized
by our loans including warehouse credit facilities and consolidated securitizations, sale and repurchase agreements
collateralized by our retained securitization interests, and other costs incurred in connection with funding the
purchases and originations of loans. Funding costs for a given period are driven by the average outstanding balance
of funding debt and notes issued by securitization trusts as well as our contractual interest expense, net of the impact
of any designated cash flow hedges.
Funding costs for the year ended June 30, 2023 increased by $113.3 million or 163%, compared to the
same period in 2022. The increase was primarily due to higher benchmark interest rates and an increase of funding
debt and notes issued by securitization trusts during the year ended June 30, 2023. The average total of funding debt
from warehouses and securitizations for the year ended June 30, 2023 was $2.5 billion compared to $2.2 billion
during the same period in 2022, an increase of $326.0 million, or 15%. The increase was also attributable to a larger
volume of on-balance sheet loans being retained during the period. The average loan balance on-balance sheet was
$3.4 billion for the year ended June 30, 2023, an increase of 53% compared to $2.2 billion during the same period in
2022.

68 – III-60 –

APPENDIX III MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF AFFIRM

Processing and Servicing

Processing and servicing expense consists primarily of payment processing fees, third-party customer
support and collection expense, salaries and personnel-related costs of our customer care team, platform fees, and
allocated overhead.
Processing and servicing expense for the year ended June 30, 2023 increased by $99.5 million, or 63%,
compared to the same period in 2022. This increase was primarily due to a $46.0 million, or 51%, increase in
payment processing fees related to increased servicing activity and payment volume for the year ended June 30,
2023. Additionally, our platform fees increased by $30.8 million, or 290%, for the year ended June 30, 2023 due to
an increase in our platform partner volume with a large enterprise partner. Third-party customer support and
collections spend increased by $13.7 million, or 36%, compared to the same period in 2022 due to increased loan
volume and transaction growth during the period.

Technology and Data Analytics

Technology and data analytics expense consists primarily of the salaries, stock-based compensation, and
personnel-related costs of our engineering, product, and credit and analytics employees, as well as the amortization
of internally-developed software and technology intangible assets, and our infrastructure and hosting costs.
Technology and data analytics expense for the year ended June 30, 2023 increased by $197.2 million or
47%, compared to the same period in 2022. This increase is primarily driven by an increase of $100.4 million, or
39%, in stock-based compensation and payroll and personnel-related costs for the year ended June 30, 2023,
compared to the same period in 2022, partially due to an increased average headcount as we continue to support our
growth and technology platform, despite a reduction in force in connection with the 2023 Restructuring Plan .
Additionally, amortization of internally-developed software and intangible assets increased by $70.8 million or
184%, compared to the same period in 2022, primarily as a result of an increase in the number of capitalized projects
and our periodic reassessment of the remaining useful lives of those assets. Capitalized projects grew by 148% from
approximately 270 projects as of June 30, 2022 to 660 projects as of June 30, 2023. Infrastructure and hosting costs
increased by $20.6 million, or 23%, and data provider costs increased by $11.5 million, or 38%, for the year ended
June 30, 2023, compared to the same period in 2022, due to increased capacity requirements of our technology
platform driven by increases in active users and transactions per active consumer.

Sales and Marketing

Sales and marketing costs consist of the expense related to warrants and other share-based payments
granted to our enterprise partners, salaries and personnel-related costs, as well as costs of general marketing and
promotional activities, promotional event programs, sponsorships, and allocated overhead.
Sales and marketing expense for the year ended June 30, 2023 increased by $105.9 million or 20%,
compared to the same period in 2022. The increase was primarily driven by Amazon warrant expense which
increased from $281.0 million for the year ended June 30, 2022 to $463.3 million for the year ended June 30, 2023,
as fiscal 2023 was the first full year of the Amazon warrants vesting. The increase was partially offset by a $36.1
million, or 65%, decrease in brand and consumer marketing spend, as well as a decrease of $15.2 million, or 84%, in
business-to-business marketing spend during the year ended June 30, 2023, compared to the same period in 2022,
primarily due to a reduced number of paid brand marketing campaigns and brand partnerships. Additionally, the
amortization of our commercial agreement with Shopify decreased by $26.4 million, or 42%, during the year ended
June 30, 2023, compared to the same period in 2022 due to an amendment made in our partnership agreement,
which extended the period of benefit over which we amortize the commercial agreement asset.

General and Administrative

General and administrative expenses consist primarily of expenses related to our finance, legal, risk
operations, human resources, and administrative personnel. General and administrative expenses also include costs
related to fees paid for professional services, including legal, tax and accounting services, allocated overhead, and
certain discretionary expenses incurred from operating our technology platform.

– III-61 –

APPENDIX III MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF AFFIRM

General and administrative expense for the year ended June 30, 2023 increased by $8.9 million or 2%,
compared to the same period in 2022. The increase was primarily driven by a $28.5 million, or 7%, increase in
payroll and personnel-related costs due to an increase in average headcount compared to the same period in 2022,
despite a reduction in force in connection with the 2023 Restructuring Plan. The increase was partially offset by a
$9.7 million, or 24%, decrease in professional service fees due to reduced spend related to acquisitions and
international expansion programs. Additionally, recruitment costs decreased by $9.8 million, or 78%, in line with
our restructuring and cost management plans.

Restructuring and Other

Restructuring and other for the year ended June 30, 2023 increased by $35.9 million compared to the same
period in 2022. During the year ended June 30, 2023, we committed to a restructuring plan designed to manage our
operating expenses in response to current macroeconomic conditions and ongoing business prioritization efforts. The
associated restructuring charges during the year ended June 30, 2023 were approximately $35.9 million, which
included expenditures of $29.7 million relating to employee severance and other employment termination benefits
and $6.2 million of accelerated amortization expense due to a reduction of right-of-use lease assets resulting from
our exiting leased office space. For further information on the associated restructuring liability, refer to Note 16.
Restructuring and other in the notes to the consolidated financial statements in this Form 10-K.

Other (Expense) Income, net

Other (expense) income, net includes interest earned on our money market funds included in cash and cash
equivalents and restricted cash, interest earned on securities available for sale, gains on derivative agreements driven
by increases in fair value, amortization of convertible debt issuance cost as well as gains (losses) on extinguishment,
revolving credit facility issuance costs, and fair value adjustments resulting from changes in the fair value of our
contingent consideration liability, primarily driven by changes in the market price of our Class A common stock.
Other (expense) income, net increased by $70.4 million, or 50%, during the year ended June 30, 2023,
compared to the same period in 2022. The increase is primarily driven by a gain of $89.8 million recognized on the
early extinguishment of our convertible debt resulting from a repurchase of a portion of our 2026 Notes during the
year ended June 30, 2023, as well as an increase of $65.9 million in interest income from cash and investments due
to higher interest rates. The increase was partially offset by a gain of $8.2 million recognized on the change in fair
value of the contingent consideration liability associated with our acquisition of PayBright, driven by changes in the
value of our common stock, as compared to a gain of $89.3 million in the same period in 2022, a decrease of $81.1
million.

Income Tax Expense (Benefit)

The income tax benefit for the year ended June 30, 2023 decreased by $13.5 million, or 78%, compared to
the same period in 2022. The tax benefit recognized for the year ended June 30, 2022 was primarily attributable to a
change in our assessment of the future realization of certain Canadian deferred tax assets during the period, which
resulted in a one-time income tax benefit for the release of all of the valuation allowance against our Canadian
deferred tax assets.

APPENDIX III MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF AFFIRM

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Sources and Uses of Funds

We maintain a capital-efficient model through a diverse set of funding sources. When we originate a loan
directly or purchase a loan originated by our originating bank partners, we often utilize warehouse credit facilities
with certain lenders to finance our lending activities or loan purchases. We sell the loans we originate or purchase
from our originating bank partners to whole loan buyers and securitization investors through forward flow
arrangements and securitization transactions, and earn servicing fees from continuing to act as the servicer on the
loans. We proactively manage the allocation of loans on our platform across various funding channels based on
several factors including, but not limited to, internal risk limits and policies, capital market conditions and channel
economics. With rising interest rates and inflation, our excess funding capacity and committed and long-term
relationships with a diverse group of existing funding partners help provide flexibility as we optimize our funding to
support the growth in loan volume.
Our principal sources of liquidity are cash and cash equivalents, available for sale securities, available
capacity from warehouse and revolving credit facilities, revolving securitizations, forward flow loan sale
arrangements, and certain cash flows from our operations. As of June 30, 2023, we had $2.1 billion in cash and cash
equivalents and available for sale securities, $2.1 billion in available funding debt capacity, excluding our purchase
commitments from third party loan buyers, and $205.0 million in borrowing capacity available under our revolving
credit facility.

U.S.

Our warehouse credit facilities allow us to borrow up to an aggregate of $3.3 billion, mature between 2024
and 2029 and subject to covenant compliance, generally permit borrowings up to 12 months prior to the final
maturity date. As of June 30, 2023, we have drawn an aggregate of $1.4 billion on our warehouse credit facilities.
As of June 30, 2023, we were in compliance with all applicable covenants in the agreements. Refer to Note 9. Debt
in the notes to the consolidated financial statements for further details on our warehouse credit facilities.

International

We use various credit facilities to finance the origination of loan receivables in Canada. Similar to our U.S.
warehouse credit facilities, borrowings under these agreements are referred to as funding debt, and proceeds from
the borrowings may only be used for the purposes of facilitating loan funding and origination. These facilities are
secured by Canadian loan receivables pledged to the respective facility as collateral, mature between 2025 and 2029.
As of June 30, 2023, the aggregate commitment amount of these facilities was $548.4 million on a revolving basis,
of which $349.6 million was drawn. Refer to Note 9. Debt in the notes to the consolidated financial statements for
further details on our other funding facilities.

Sale and Repurchase Agreements

We have various sale and repurchase agreements pursuant to our retained interests in our off-balance sheet
securitizations where we have sold these securities to a counterparty with an obligation to repurchase at a future date
and price. These agreements have an initial term of three months and subject to mutual agreement by Affirm and the
counterparty, we may enter into one or more repurchase date extensions, each for an additional three month term at
market interest rates on such extension date. We had $11.0 million and $27.0 million in debt outstanding under our
sale and repurchase agreements disclosed within funding debt on the consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 2023
and June 30, 2022, respectively. Refer to Note 9. Debt in the notes to the consolidated financial statements for
further details on our sale and repurchase agreements.

Other Funding Sources

Securitizations

In connection with asset-backed securitizations, we sponsor and establish trusts (deemed to be VIEs) to
ultimately purchase loans facilitated by our platform. Securities issued from our asset-backed securitizations are
senior or subordinated, based on the waterfall criteria of loan payments to each security class. The subordinated
72

– III-64 –

APPENDIX III MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF AFFIRM

residual interests issued from these transactions are first to absorb credit losses in accordance with the waterfall
criteria. We consolidate securitization VIEs when we are deemed to be the primary beneficiary and therefore have
the power to direct the activities that most significantly affect the VIEs’ economic performance and a variable
interest that could potentially be significant to the VIE. Where we consolidate the securitization trusts, the loans held
in the securitization trusts are included in loans held for investment, and the notes sold to third-party investors are
recorded in notes issued by securitization trusts in the consolidated balance sheets. Refer to Note 10. Securitization
and Variable Interest Entities in the notes to the consolidated financial statements for further details.

Revolving Credit Facility

In February 2022, we entered into a revolving credit agreement for a $165.0 million unsecured revolving
credit facility, maturing on February 4, 2025, which was subsequently amended to increase the unsecured revolving
commitments to $205.0 million. As of June 30, 2023, there are no borrowings outstanding under the facility. The
facility contains certain covenants and restrictions, including certain financial maintenance covenants. As of June 30,
2023, we were in compliance with all applicable covenants in the agreements. Refer to Note 9. Debt in the notes to
the consolidated financial statements for further details on our revolving credit facility.

Forward Flow Loan Sale Arrangements

We have forward flow loan sale arrangements that facilitates the sale of whole loans to counterparties.
Forward flow arrangements are generally fixed term in nature, with term lengths ranging between one to three years,
during which we periodically sell loans to our counterparties.

Operating Activities

Our largest sources of operating cash are fees charged to merchant partners on transactions processed
through our platform and interest income from consumers’ loans. Our primary uses of cash from operating activities
are for general and administrative expenses, technology and data analytics expenses, funding costs, processing and
servicing costs, and sales and marketing expenses.
Cash provided by operating activities for the year ended June 30, 2023, was $12.2 million, an increase of
$174.4 million from cash used in operating activities of $162.2 million for the year ended June 30, 2022. This
reflects our net loss of $985.3 million, adjusted for non-cash charges of $967.4 million and net cash inflows of $30.1
million provided by changes in our operating assets net of operating liabilities.
Non-cash charges primarily consisted of: commercial agreement expense, which increased by
$167.3 million primarily as a result of an increase of $182.3 million related to Amazon warrant expenses, partially
offset by a decrease of $26.4 million related to amortization expense associated with our commercial agreement
asset with Shopify, provision for credit losses, which increased by $76.6 million driven by growth in the volume of
loans held for investment and partially offset by improvements in the credit quality of loans outstanding, stock-based
compensation, which increased by $60.7 million driven by an increase in amortization of internally developed
software and intangible assets primarily as a result of an increase in the number of capitalized projects, which
73

– III-65 –

APPENDIX III MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF AFFIRM

increased by $81.9 million as a result of accelerated amortization related to property, equipment and software, and
an adjustment in fair value of assets and liabilities of $85.9 million, primarily as a result of the gain of $8.2 million
recognized based on a change in the fair value of the contingent consideration liability associated with our
acquisition of PayBright, driven by changes in the market price of our common stock, as compared to a gain of
$89.3 million in the same period in 2022, a decrease of $81.1 million . This was partially offset by a decrease due to
a gain on early extinguishment of debt of $89.8 million related to the convertible note repurchases during the period.
Our net cash inflows resulting from changes in operating assets and liabilities increased by $40.0 million
for the year ended June 30, 2023 compared to the same period in 2022. This change was primarily driven by net
proceeds from the sale and purchase of loans of $165.1 million which increased by $135.7 million compared to the
same period in 2022. We also purchased loans of $6.0 billion, which was offset by proceeds from loan sales of $6.2
billion.

Investing Activities

For the year ended June 30, 2023, net cash used in investing activities of$1.7 billion was primarily
attributable to purchases and origination of loans held for investment of$13.6 billion, partially offset by repayments
of loans and proceeds from sale of loans of $11.6 billion. During the period, we originated loans of $3.6 billion and
purchased loans of $10.0 billion, representing a combined increase of $3.2 billion compared to the same period in
2022, due partly to continued growth in GMV. Loan repayments and sale of loans of $11.6 billion during the year
ended June 30, 2023, represented an increase of $1.6 billion, compared to the same period in 2022, due in part to the
shifting of the length of loan terms on our consolidated balance sheet netted off by higher average balance of loans
held for investment compared to the same period in 2022. The additional offset during the year ended June 30, 2023
was related to the net proceeds from maturities of securities available for sale of $0.5 billion, representing an
increase of $2.0 billion compared to the same period in 2022.

Financing Activities

For the year ended June 30, 2023, net cash provided by financing activities of $1.3 billion, was primarily
attributable to net cash inflows from funding debt of $1.1 billion, and the issuance and repayment of notes and
certificates issued by securitization trust of $0.5 billion, partially offset by net cash outflows related to the repayment
of a portion of our convertible senior notes of $206.6 million. Additionally, we paid taxes related to RSU vesting of
$73.8 million for the year ended June 30, 2023.

binding and that specify all significant terms, including fixed or minimum services to be used, fixed, minimum or

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

In the ordinary course of business, we engage in activities that are not reflected on our consolidated balance
sheets, generally referred to as off-balance sheet arrangements. These activities involve transactions with
unconsolidated VIEs, including our sponsored securitization transactions, which we contractually service.
For off-balance sheet loan sales where servicing is the only form of continuing involvement, we could
experience a loss if we were required to repurchase a loan due to a breach in representations and warranties
associated with our loan sale or servicing contracts. For unconsolidated securitization transactions where Affirm is
the sponsor and risk retention holder, Affirm could experience a loss of up to 5% of both the senior notes and
residual certificates. As of June 30, 2023, the aggregate outstanding balance of loans held by third-party investors
for off-balance sheet VIEs was $4.1 billion. In the unlikely event principal payments on the loans backing any off-
balance sheet securitization are insufficient to pay holders of senior notes and residual certificates, including any
retained interests held by Affirm, then any amounts the Company contributed to the securitization reserve accounts
may be depleted. See Note 10. Securitization and Variable Interest Entitiesof the accompanying notes to our
consolidated financial statements for more information.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our
consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP and requires us to make
certain estimates and judgments that affect the amounts reported in our consolidated financial statements. We base
our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the
circumstances. Because certain of these accounting policies require significant judgment, our actual results may

75 – III-67 –

APPENDIX III MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF AFFIRM

differ materially from our estimates. To the extent that there are differences between our estimates and actual results,
our future consolidated financial statement presentation, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows
may be affected.
We evaluate our significant estimates on an ongoing basis. We believe the estimates, discussed below, have
the greatest potential effect on our consolidated financial statements and are therefore deemed critical in
understanding and evaluating our financial results. For further information, our significant accounting policies are
described inNote2.Summary of Significant Accounting Policieswithin the notes to the consolidated financial
statements.

Loss on Loan Purchase Commitment and Loss on Loan Origination

We purchase certain loans from our originating bank partners that are processed through our platform that
our originating bank partner puts back to us. In certain instances, our originating bank partners may originate loans
with zero or below market interest rates that we are required to purchase. In these instances, we may be required to
purchase the loan for a price in excess of the fair market value of such loans, which results in a loss. These losses are
recognized as loss on loan purchase commitment in our consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive
loss.
Similarly, we may originate certain loans via our wholly-owned subsidiaries, with zero or below market
interest rates. In these instances, the par value of the loans originated is in excess of the fair market value of such
loans, resulting in a loss, which we record as a reduction to network revenue.
For both loans originated by our bank partners and loans originated through our subsidiaries, the loss is
measured as the difference between the estimated fair value of the loan and the par amount of the loan at origination.
The fair value of a loan is estimated based on the present value of expected future cash flows, using both
observable and unobservable inputs, including the expected timing and amount of losses, the discount rate, and the
recovery rate. These inputs are based on historical performance of loans facilitated through our platform, as well as
the consideration of market participant requirements. While our estimate reflects assumptions we believe a market
participant would use to calculate fair value, significant judgment is required.

Allowance for Credit Losses

The allowance for credit losses on loans held for investment is determined based on management’s current
estimate of expected credit losses over the remaining contractual term, historical credit losses, consumer payment
trends, estimates of recoveries, and future expectations as of each balance sheet date. We immediately recognize an
allowance for expected credit losses upon origination of a loan. Adjustments to the allowance each period for
changes in our estimate of lifetime expected credit losses are recognized in earnings through the provision for credit
losses presented on our consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. We have made an accounting
policy election to not measure an allowance for credit losses for accrued interest receivables. Previously recognized
interest receivable from charged-off loans that is accrued but not collected from the consumer is reversed.
In estimating the allowance for credit losses, management utilizes a migration analysis of delinquent and
current loan receivables. Migration analysis is a technique used to estimate the likelihood that a loan receivable will
progress through various stages of delinquency and to charge-off. The analysis focuses on the pertinent factors
underlying the quality of the loan portfolio. These factors include historical performance, the age of the receivable
balance, seasonality, customer credit-worthiness, changes in the size and composition of the loan portfolio,
delinquency levels, bankruptcy filings and actual credit loss experience. We also take into consideration certain
qualitative factors, in which we adjust our quantitative baseline using our best judgement to consider the inherent
uncertainty regarding future economic conditions and consumer loan performance. For example, we consider the
impact of current economic and environmental factors at the reporting date that did not exist over the period from
which historical experience was used.
When available information confirms that specific loans or portions thereof are uncollectible, identified
amounts are charged against the allowance for credit losses. Loans are charged-off in accordance with our charge-
76

– III-68 –

APPENDIX III MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF AFFIRM

off policy, as the contractual principal becomes 120 days past due or meets other charge-off policy requirements.
Subsequent recoveries of the unpaid principal balance, if any, are credited to the allowance for credit losses.
The underlying assumptions, estimates, and assessments we use to provide for losses are updated
periodically to reflect our view of current conditions, which can result in changes to our assumptions. Changes in
such estimates can significantly affect the allowance and provision for credit losses. It is possible that we will
experience loan losses that are different from our current estimates.

Item 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the interim condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (“Form 10-Q”) and our audited consolidated financial statements and the related notes and the discussion under the heading “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” for the fiscal year ended June�30, 2023 included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K. Some of the information contained in this discussion and analysis, including information with respect to our planned investments to drive future growth, includes forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. You should review the sections titled “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” and “Risk Factors” of this Form 10-Q and our most recently filed Annual Report on Form 10-K for a discussion of forward-looking statements and important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the results described in or implied by the forward-looking statements contained in the following discussion and analysis.

Overview

We are building the next generation platform for digital and mobile-first commerce. We believe that by using modern technology, superior engineering talent, and a mission-driven approach, we can reinvent payments and commerce. Our solutions, which are built on trust and transparency, make it easier for consumers to spend responsibly and with confidence, easier for merchants to convert sales and grow, and easier for commerce to thrive.

Our point-of-sale solutions allow consumers to pay for purchases in fixed amounts without deferred interest, late fees, or penalties. We empower consumers to pay over time rather than paying for a purchase entirely upfront. This increases consumers’ purchasing power and gives them more control and flexibility. Our platform facilitates both true 0% APR payment options and interest-bearing loans. On the merchant side, we offer commerce enablement, demand generation, and customer acquisition tools. Our solutions empower merchants to more efficiently promote and sell their products, optimize their customer acquisition strategies, and drive incremental sales. We also provide valuable product-level data and insights — information that merchants cannot easily get elsewhere — to better inform their strategies. Finally, our consumer app unlocks the full suite of Affirm products for a delightful end-to-end consumer experience. Consumers can use our app to apply for installment loans, and upon approval, they can use the Affirm Card digitally online or in-stores to complete a purchase. Additionally, consumers can manage the pre- and post purchase split of Affirm Card transactions into loan, manage payments, open a high-yield savings account, and access a personalized marketplace.

Our Company is predicated on the principles of simplicity, transparency, and putting people first. By adhering to these principles, we have built enduring, trust-based relationships with consumers and merchants that we believe will set us up for long-term, sustainable success. We believe our innovative approach uniquely positions us to define the future of commerce and payments.

Technology and data are at the core of everything we do. Our expertise in sourcing, aggregating, and analyzing data has been what we believe to be the key competitive advantage of our platform since our founding. We believe our proprietary technology platform and data give us a unique advantage in pricing risk. We use data to inform our risk scoring in order to generate value for our consumers, merchants, and capital partners. We also prioritize building our own technology and investing in product and engineering talent as we believe these are enduring competitive advantages that are difficult to replicate. Our solutions use the latest in machine learning, artificial intelligence, cloud-based technologies, and other modern tools to create differentiated and scalable products.

Our Financial Model

Our Revenue Model

From merchants, we earn a fee when we help them convert a sale and facilitate a transaction. While merchant fees depend on the individual arrangement between us and each merchant and vary based on the terms of the product offering, we generally earn larger merchant fees on our 0% APR financing products. For the three months ended September�30, 2023 and 2022, Pay-in-4 represented 15% and 18% of total GMV facilitated through our platform, respectively, while 0% APR Core loans represented 11% and 19%, respectively.

From consumers, we earn interest income on the simple interest loans that we originate or purchase from our originating bank partners. Interest rates charged to our consumers vary depending on the transaction risk, creditworthiness of the consumer, the repayment term selected by the consumer, the amount of the loan, and the individual arrangement with a merchant. Because our consumers are never charged deferred or compounding interest, late fees, or penalties on the loans, we are not incentivized to profit from our consumers’ hardships. In addition, interest income includes the amortization of any discounts or premiums on loan receivables created upon either the purchase of a loan from one of our originating bank partners or the origination of a loan. For the three months ended September�30, 2023 and 2022, interest bearing loans represented 74% and 64% of total GMV facilitated through our platform, respectively.

In order to accelerate our ubiquity, we facilitate the issuance of virtual cards directly to consumers through our app, allowing them to shop with merchants that may not yet be fully integrated with Affirm. Similarly, we also facilitate the issuance of the Affirm Card, a debit card that can be used physically or virtually and which allows consumers to link a bank account to pay in full, or pay later by accessing credit through the Affirm App. When these cards are used over established card networks, we earn a portion of the interchange fee from the transaction.

Our Loan Origination and Servicing Model

When a consumer applies for a loan through our platform, the loan is underwritten using our proprietary risk model. Once approved for the loan, the consumer then selects their preferred repayment option. A portion of these loans are funded and issued by our originating bank partners, which include Cross River Bank, an FDIC-insured New Jersey state-chartered bank, Celtic Bank, an FDIC-insured Utah state-chartered industrial bank, and Lead Bank, an FDIC-insured Missouri state-chartered bank. These partnerships allow us to benefit from our partners’ ability to originate loans under their banking licenses while complying with various federal, state, and other laws. Under this arrangement, we must comply with our originating bank partners' credit policies and underwriting procedures, and our originating bank partners maintain ultimate authority to decide whether to originate a loan or not. When an originating bank partner originates a loan, it funds the loan through its own funding sources and may subsequently offer and sell the loan to us. Pursuant to our agreements with these partners, we are obligated to purchase the loans facilitated through our platform that such partner offers us and our obligation is secured by cash deposits. To date, we have purchased all of the loans facilitated through our platform and originated by our originating bank partners. When we purchase a loan from an originating bank partner, the purchase price is equal to the outstanding principal balance of the loan, plus a fee and any accrued interest. The originating bank

54

APPENDIX III MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF AFFIRM

Table of Contents

partner also retains an interest in the loans purchased by us through a loan performance fee that is payable by us on the aggregate principal amount of a loan that is paid by a consumer. See Note 13. Fair Value of Financial Assets and Liabilities for more information on the performance fee liability.

We are also able to originate loans directly under our lending, servicing, and brokering licenses in Canada and across several states in the U.S. through our consolidated subsidiaries. We directly originated approximately $938.3 million, or 17%, and $874.5 million, or 20%, of loans for the three months ended September�30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

We act as the servicer on all loans that we originate directly or purchase from our originating bank partners and earn a servicing fee on loans we sell to our funding sources. In the normal course of business, we do not sell the servicing rights on any of the loans. To allow for flexible staffing to support overflow and seasonal traffic, we partner with several sub-servicers to manage customer care, first priority collections, and third-party collections in accordance with our policies and procedures.

Factors Affecting Our Performance

Our performance has been and may continue to be affected by many factors, including those identified below, as well as the factors discussed in the section titled “Risk Factors” in this Form 10-Q and in our most recently filed Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June�30, 2023.

Expanding our Network, Diversity, and Mix of Funding Relationships

Our capital efficient funding model is integral to the success of our platform. As we scale the number of transactions on our network and grow GMV, we maintain a variety of funding relationships in order to support our network. Our diversified funding relationships include warehouse facilities, securitization trusts, forward flow arrangements, and partnerships with banks. Given the short duration and strong performance of our assets, funding can be recycled quickly, resulting in a high-velocity, capital efficient funding model. While we have continued to improve our equity capital efficiency, the percentage of our equity capital as a percentage of our total platform portfolio has remained relatively unchanged at 5% as of September�30, 2023 and June�30, 2023. The mix of on-balance sheet and off-balance sheet funding is a function of how we choose to allocate loan volume, which is determined by the economic arrangements and supply of capital available to us, both of which may also impact our results in any given period.

Mix of Business on Our Platform

The shifts in volume among merchants and the products that our merchants offer and our consumers purchase in any period affects our operating results. This mix impacts GMV, revenue, our financial results, and our key operating metric performance for that period. Differences in loan product mix result in varying loan durations, APR, and mix of 0% APR and interest-bearing financings.

Product and economic terms of commercial agreements vary among our merchants. For example, our low average order value (“AOV”) products generally benefit from shorter duration, but also have lower revenue as a percentage of GMV when compared to high AOV products. Merchant mix shifts are driven in part by the products offered by the merchant, the economic terms negotiated with the merchant, merchant-side activity relating to the marketing of their products, whether or not the merchant is fully integrated within our network, and general economic conditions affecting consumer demand. Our revenue as a percentage of GMV in any given period varies across products. As such, as we continue to expand our network to include more merchants, revenue as a percentage of GMV may vary. In addition, our commercial agreement with Shopify to offer Shop Pay Installments powered by Affirm and our Pay-in-4 offering may continue to impact the mix of our shorter duration, low AOV products. Differences in the mix of high versus low AOV may also impact our results. For example, we expect that transactions per active consumer may increase while revenue as a percentage of GMV may decline in the medium term to the extent that a greater portion of our GMV comes from Pay-in-4 and other low-AOV offerings.

APPENDIX III MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF AFFIRM

Table of Contents

Seasonality

We experience seasonal fluctuations in our business as a result of consumer spending patterns. Historically, our GMV has been the strongest during the second quarter of our fiscal year due to increases in retail commerce during the holiday season. Despite these higher GMV levels, in fiscal 2023 and 2022, we generated less in period revenue as a percentage of GMV during our second fiscal quarter due to the comparatively higher proportion of interest bearing loans originated in the latter half of the period, which typically results in lower merchant network revenue, which is recognized in period, and higher levels of interest income, which is recognized over a longer time horizon. We expect these seasonal patterns to continue in future periods, and any adverse events that occur during our second fiscal quarter could have a disproportionate effect on our financial results for the fiscal year.

Macroeconomic Environment

We regularly monitor the direct and indirect impacts of the current macroeconomic conditions on our business, financial condition, and results of operations. Since fiscal 2023, the macroeconomic environment has presented a number of challenges to our business. In response to continued inflationary pressure, the U.S. Federal Reserve raised, and may continue to raise, the federal funds interest rate. Simultaneously, economic uncertainty and the prospect of economic recession impacted consumer spending. These developments have affected, and may continue to affect, our business and results of operations in the following ways:

  • Deceleration in consumer demand: We have experienced a deceleration in consumer demand for discretionary items, which has adversely impacted GMV growth.

  • Increased borrowing costs: Our costs of borrowing have increased, resulting in higher transaction costs.

  • Volatile capital markets: In response to volatile capital markets conditions, we have retained more loans on our balance sheet funded through our consolidated securitizations and warehouse lines in recent fiscal quarters. Retaining loans on our balance sheet leads to the recognition of interest income over the life of the loan, effectively delaying the revenue that would have been realized upon the loan’s sale.

  • Managing delinquency rates: We continue to optimize our underwriting to manage delinquency rates. As of September�30, 2023, our 30-day delinquency rates for monthly installment loans and our allowance rates for loan losses improved over, those experienced as of September�30, 2022.

Macroeconomic factors can also cause fluctuations of available capital in our lending marketplace due to shifts in the risk preferences of our lending partners and institutional investors or for other reasons. For example, since the beginning of March 2023, there have been public reports of instability at certain financial institutions. Despite the steps taken to date by U.S. and foreign agencies and institutions, the follow-on effects of this instability are unknown and may lead to disruptions to the businesses and operations of our funding sources.

Pricing Initiatives

We have substantially implemented certain pricing initiatives that have the dual purpose of offsetting our increased funding costs while also enabling us to responsibly extend access to credit to a larger number of consumers. These pricing initiatives include the following:

  • increasing the maximum APR for loans facilitated on our platform from 30% to 36%;

  • increasing the merchant fees payable by some merchants on 0% APR financing products;

  • expanding the use of down payments and requested loan amounts;

  • offering merchant-subsidized low APR loans (4% to 9.99%) as an alternative to monthly 0% APR programs; and

56

– III-73 –

APPENDIX III MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF AFFIRM

Table of Contents

  • shortening loan lengths and minimum order sizes for monthly 0% APR programs.

Regulatory Developments

We are subject to the regulatory and enforcement authority of the Consumer Financial Protection Board (the “CFPB”) as a facilitator, servicer, acquirer or originator of consumer credit. As such, the CFPB has in the past requested reports concerning our organization, business conduct, markets, and activities, and we expect that the CFPB will continue to do so from time to time in the future.

In addition, we are subject to supervision by the CFPB, which enables it, among other things, to conduct comprehensive and rigorous examinations to assess our compliance with consumer financial protection laws, which in turn could result in matters requiring attention, investigations, enforcement actions, regulatory fines and mandated changes to our business products, policies and procedures.

Key Operating Metrics

We focus on several key operating metrics to measure the performance of our business and help determine our strategic direction. In addition to revenue, net loss, and other results under U.S. GAAP, the following tables set forth key operating metrics we use to evaluate our business.

2023
2022
% Change
(in billions)
Gross merchandise volume (GMV) $ 5.6$ 4.4
28%
GMV

We measure GMV to assess the volume of transactions that take place on our platform. We define GMV as the total dollar amount of all transactions on the Affirm platform during the applicable period, net of refunds. GMV does not represent revenue earned by us; however, it is an indicator of the success of our merchants and the strength of our platform.

For the three months ended September�30, 2023, GMV was $5.6 billion, which represented an increase of approximately 28% as compared to the same period in 2022. Overall, the increase in GMV was primarily driven by the expansion of our active merchant base and increases in active consumers and average transactions per consumer. The increase in GMV for the three months ended September�30, 2023 also reflected increased consumer demand at our largest merchant partners by GMV and increased consumer demand in our travel and ticketing and general merchandise categories.

For the three months ended September�30, 2023, our top five merchants and platform partners represented approximately 42% of total GMV, as compared to 38% for the three months ended September�30, 2022. GMV attributable to Amazon increased during the three months ended September�30, 2023 as compared to the same period in 2022 but represented less than 20% of total GMV for all such periods.

Active Consumers

We assess consumer adoption and engagement by the number of active consumers across our platform. Active consumers are the primary measure of the size of our network. We define an active consumer as a consumer who engages in at least one transaction on our platform during the 12�months prior to the measurement date.

As of September�30, 2023, we had approximately 16.9 million active consumers inclusive of 0.8 million active consumers who only transacted on Returnly, which represented an increase of 15% compared to approximately 14.7 million active consumers as of September�30, 2022. The increase was primarily due to a high retention rate of existing consumers and the acquisition of new consumers through an expanding active merchant base.

Transactions per Active Consumer

We believe the value of our network is amplified with greater consumer engagement and repeat usage, highlighted by increased transactions per active consumer. Transactions per active consumer is defined as the average number of transactions that an active consumer has conducted on our platform during the 12�months prior to the measurement date.

As of September�30, 2023, we had approximately 4.1 transactions per active consumer, an increase of 25% compared to September�30, 2022. This was primarily due to platform growth and a higher frequency of repeat users driven by consumer engagement.

(1) Upon purchase of a loan from our originating bank partners at a price above the fair market value of the loan or upon the origination of a loan with a par value in excess of the fair market value of the loan, a discount is included in the amortized cost basis of the loan. For loans held for investment, this discount is amortized over the life of the loan into interest income. When a loan is sold to a third-party loan buyer or off-balance sheet securitization trust, the unamortized discount is released in full at the time of sale and recognized as part of the gain or loss on sales of loans. However, the cumulative value of the loss on loan purchase commitment or loss on origination, the interest income recognized over time from the amortization of discount while retained, and the release of discount into gain on sales of loans, together net to zero over the life of the loan. The following tables detail activity for the discount, included in loans held for investment, for the periods indicated:

Comparison of the Three Months Ended September�30, 2023 and 2022

Merchant network revenue

Merchant network revenue is impacted by both GMV and the mix of loans originated on our platform as merchant fees vary based on loan characteristics. In particular, merchant network revenue as a percentage of GMV typically increases with longer-term, non interest-bearing loans with higher AOVs, and decreases with shorter-term, interest-bearing loans with lower AOVs.

Merchant network revenue increased by $32.8 million, or 29%, for the three months ended September�30, 2023, compared to the same period in 2022. The increase is primarily attributed to an increase of $1.2 billion in GMV for the three months ended September�30, 2023, compared to the same time period in 2022. The increase in GMV is a result of the expansion of our active merchant base and consumers, reaching approximately 266,000 and 16.9 million, respectively, as of September�30, 2023, up from approximately 245,000 and 14.7 million, respectively, as of September�30, 2022. Additionally, the average transactions per consumer increased from 3.3 as of September�30, 2022 to 4.1 as of September�30, 2023. The increase in consumers and average transactions per consumer is partially offset by a decrease in AOVs. For the three months ended September�30, 2023 AOV was $299, down from $331 for the same period in fiscal 2022. The decrease in AOV is due to the diversification of our merchant base and our initiative to drive repeat usage of our platform beyond one-time high AOV purchases.

Card network revenue

Card network revenue increased by $6.8 million, or 25%, for the three months ended September�30, 2023 compared to the same period in 2022. Card network revenue growth is correlated with the growth of GMV processed by our issuer processors. As such, the increase is primarily driven by $1.8 billion of GMV processed through our issuer processors, an increase of 35% for the three months ended September�30, 2023 as compared to the same period in 2022. This was driven by increased card activity as well as growth in existing and new merchants using our card platform, growing from approximately 1,100 merchants as of September�30, 2022 to 1,400 merchants

60

APPENDIX III MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF AFFIRM

Table of Contents

as of September�30, 2023. Card network revenue is also impacted by the mix of merchants as different merchants can have different interchange rates depending on their industry or size, among other factors.

Interest income

Interest income increased by $125.9 million, or 92%, for the three months ended September�30, 2023, compared to the same period in 2022. Generally, interest income is correlated with the changes in the average balance of loans held for investment. The average balance of loans held for investment increased by 73% to $4.5 billion for the three months ended September�30, 2023 compared to the same period in 2022. The increase in loans held for investment on our interim consolidated balance sheet is in response to the current market environment and our ability to allocate loans to warehouse credit facilities with better economic terms while optimizing cost of funds. As a result of the increase in loans held for investment on our consolidated balance sheet, interest income from interest-bearing loans increased from $106.1 million for the three months ended September�30, 2022 to $226.2 million for three months ended September�30, 2023. This increase was partially due to an increase in volume of interest bearing loans which increased to 74% of total GMV for the three months ended September�30, 2023 compared to 64% of total GMV in the same period in 2022, in addition to recent pricing initiatives, including the increase of the maximum APR and merchant-subsidized low APR loans replacing previously non-interest bearing loans.

Gain on sales of loans

Gain on sales of loans decreased by $29.3 million, or 46%, for the three months ended September�30, 2023 compared to the same period in 2022. The decrease was partially driven by higher benchmark interest rates, which impacted pricing terms on loan sales during the period. The decrease was partially offset by an increase in loan sale volume to third-party loan buyers. We sold loans with an unpaid principal balance of $2.2 billion for the three months ended September�30, 2023 compared to $2.0 billion for the same period in 2022.

Servicing income

Servicing income includes net servicing fee revenue and fair value adjustments for servicing assets and liabilities, and is recognized for loan portfolios sold to third party loan buyers and for loans held within our off balance sheet securitizations. Servicing fee revenue varies by contractual servicing fee arrangement and is earned as a percentage of the average unpaid principal balance of loans held by each counterparty where we have a servicing agreement. We reduce servicing income for certain fees we are required to pay per our contractual servicing arrangement.

With respect to fair value adjustments, we remeasure the fair value of servicing assets and liabilities each period and recognize the change in fair value in servicing income. We utilize a discounted cash flow approach to remeasure the fair value of servicing rights. Because we earn servicing income based on the outstanding principal balance of the portfolio, fair value adjustments are impacted by the timing and amount of loan repayments. As such, over the term of each loan portfolio sold, fair value adjustments for servicing assets will decrease servicing income and fair value adjustments for servicing liabilities will increase servicing income. We discuss our valuation methodology and significant Level 3 inputs for servicing assets and liabilities within Note 13. Fair Value of Financial Assets and Liabilities.

Servicing income decreased by $1.2 million, or 6%, for the three months ended September�30, 2023, compared to the same period in 2022. The decrease was primarily due to the average unpaid principal balance of loans owned by third-party loan owners, which decreased from $4.6 billion during the three months ended September�30, 2022 to $4.4 billion during the three months ended September�30, 2023.

Loss on loan purchase commitment

We purchase certain loans from our originating bank partners that are processed through our platform and put back to us by our originating bank partners . Under the terms of the agreements with our originating bank partners, we are generally required to pay the principal amount plus accrued interest for such loans. In certain instances, our originating bank partners may originate loans with zero or below market interest rates that we are required to purchase. In these instances, we may be required to purchase the loan for a price in excess of the fair market value of such loans, which results in a loss. These losses are recognized as loss on loan purchase commitment in our interim condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. These costs are incurred on a per loan basis.

Loss on loan purchase commitment decreased by $0.7 million, or 2%, for the three months ended September�30, 2023 compared to the same period in 2022. This decrease was due to a decrease in the volume and concentration of long-term 0% APR loans purchased from our originating bank partners which are purchased above fair market value, in contrast to an increase in total loans purchased. The difference between fair value and purchase price for our loans is generally correlated with the term length and APR of the loans. Additionally, as the percentage of our portfolio shifts towards more interest bearing loans, loss on loan purchase commitment is expected to decrease as a percentage of the originated principal amount. During the three�months ended September�30, 2023, we purchased $4.6 billion of loans from our originating bank partners, compared to $3.5 billion in the same period in 2022, representing an increase of 31%. Of those loans, $278.8 million were long-term 0% APR loan receivables for the three�months ended September�30, 2023, representing a decrease of $117.8 million, or 30%, compared to the same period in 2022.

Provision for credit losses

Provision for credit losses generally represents the amount of expense required to maintain the allowance for credit losses on our consolidated balance sheet, which represents management’s estimate of future losses. In the event that our loans outperform expectation and/or we reduce our expectation of credit losses in future periods, we may release reserves and thereby reduce the allowance for credit losses, yielding income in the provision for credit losses. The provision is determined based on our estimate of expected future losses on loans originated during the period and held for investment on our balance sheet, changes in our estimate of future losses on loans outstanding as of the end of the period and the net charge-offs incurred in the period.

Provision for credit losses increased by $35.4 million, or 55%, for the three months ended September�30, 2023 compared to the same period in 2022, driven by growth in the volume of loans held for investment and partially offset by improvements in credit quality of loans outstanding. Loans held for investment as of September�30, 2023 was $4.5 billion, an increase of $1.9 billion, or 70%, as compared to the same period in 2022.

The allowance for credit losses as a percentage of loans held for investment was 5.1% as of September�30, 2023 compared to 5.7% in the same period in 2022 and 4.6% as of June�30, 2023. The decrease from September 30, 2022, was primarily driven by enhancements to our credit underwriting models and collection processes for loans in early stage delinquency. This has allowed us to better predict and mitigate losses and has resulted in stronger performing loans normalized for the same credit quality. The increase in the allowance rate from June�30, 2023 is primarily driven by changes in the loan mix, including holding a higher percentage of seasoned and longer term loans on our balance sheet as of September 30, 2023.

Funding costs

Funding costs consist of interest expense and the amortization of fees for certain borrowings collateralized by our loans including warehouse credit facilities and consolidated securitizations, sale and repurchase agreements collateralized by our retained securitization interests, and other costs incurred in connection with funding the purchases and originations of loans. Funding costs for a given period are driven by the average outstanding balance of funding debt and notes issued by securitization trusts as well as our contractual interest rate and distribution of loans across funding facilities, net of the impact of any designated cash flow hedges.

62

– III-79 –

APPENDIX III MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF AFFIRM

Table of Contents

Funding costs increased by $48.9 million, or 195%, for the three months ended September�30, 2023, respectively, compared to the same period in 2022. The increase was primarily due to higher benchmark interest rates and an increase of funding debt and notes issued by securitization trusts during the three months ended September�30, 2023. The average total of funding debt from warehouses and securitizations for the three months ended September�30, 2023 was $4.0 billion compared to $2.4 billion during the same period in 2022, an increase of $1.6 billion, or 67%. The increase was also attributable to a larger volume of on-balance sheet loans being retained during the period. The average on-balance sheet loan balance was $4.5 billion for the three months ended September�30, 2023, an increase of 72% compared to $2.6 billion during the same period in 2022.

Processing and servicing

Processing and servicing expense consists primarily of payment processing fees, third-party customer support and collection expense, salaries and personnel-related costs of our customer care team, platform fees, and allocated overhead.

Processing and servicing expense increased by $21.3 million, or 39%, for the three months ended September�30, 2023 compared to the same period in 2022. This increase was driven primarily by an increase in payment processing fees of $11.6 million, or 40%, for the three months ended September�30, 2023 related to increased payment volume. Additionally, during the three months ended September�30, 2023, our platform fees increased by $7.8 million, or 107%, due to an increase in volume with a large enterprise partner.

Technology and data analytics

Technology and data analytics expense consists primarily of the salaries, stock-based compensation, and personnel-related costs of our engineering, product, and credit and analytics employees, as well as the amortization of internally-developed software and technology intangible assets, and our infrastructure and hosting costs.

Technology and data analytics expense decreased by $12.0 million, or 8%, for the three months ended September�30, 2023 compared to the same period in 2022. The decrease is primarily driven by a decrease of $18.1 million, or 21%, in stock-based compensation and payroll and personnel-related costs for the three months ended September�30, 2023 compared to the same period in 2022, due to higher capitalized expenses related to internallydeveloped software. Additionally, data infrastructure and hosting costs decreased by $8.1 million, or 27%, for the three months ended September�30, 2023 compared to the same period in 2022, due to cost improvements achieved as a result of contract renegotiation. The decrease is partially offset by amortization of internally-developed software and intangible assets which increased by $11.8 million, or 61%, for the three months ended September�30, 2023 compared to the same period in 2022, as a result of an increase in the number of capitalized projects. Capitalized projects grew by 83% from approximately 330 projects as of September�30, 2022 to 610 projects as of September�30, 2023. Additionally, data provider costs increased by $1.7 million, or 19%, for the three months ended September�30, 2023, compared to the same period in 2022, due to an increase in transactions on our platform.

Sales and marketing

Sales and marketing costs consist of the expense related to warrants and other share-based payments granted to our enterprise partners, salaries and personnel-related costs, as well as costs of general marketing and promotional activities, promotional event programs, sponsorships, and allocated overhead.

63

APPENDIX III MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF AFFIRM

Table of Contents

Sales and marketing expense decreased by $17.0 million, or 10%, during the three�months ended September�30, 2023 compared to the same period in 2022. The decrease was primarily driven by Amazon warrant expense which decreased from $119.2 million for the three�months ended September�30, 2022 to $106.3 million for the three�months ended September�30, 2023 due to a decrease in the number of new users to the Amazon program in the current period, which is the basis for a portion of the warrant expense. Additionally, personnel-related costs decreased by $9.9 million, or 46%, for the three months ended September�30, 2023 compared to the same period in 2022 as a result of our reduction in force and cost management plans. The decrease is partially offset by a $5.6 million increase in the amortization of intangible assets for the three months ended September�30, 2023 compared to the same period in 2022 due to accelerated amortization of Returnly’s intangibles assets related to the wind down of our returns management platform.

General and administrative

General and administrative expenses consist primarily of expenses related to our finance, legal, risk operations, human resources, and administrative personnel. General and administrative expenses also include costs related to fees paid for professional services, including legal, tax and accounting services, allocated overhead, and certain discretionary expenses incurred from operating our technology platform.

General and administrative expense decreased by $20.6 million, or 13%, during the three�months ended September�30, 2023 compared to the same period in 2022. The decrease was primarily due to a $3.3 million, or 3%, decrease in payroll and personnel-related costs, a $6.6 million, or 45%, decrease in professional service fees and contractor expenses, and a $2.9 million, or 38%, decrease in bonuses during the three months ended September�30, 2023 compared to the same period in 2022, as a result of our reduction in force and cost management plans. Additionally insurance expense decreased by $2.0 million, or 39%, driven by a rate reduction during policy renewals.

Restructuring and other

Restructuring and other for the three months ended September�30, 2023 increased by $1.7 million compared to the same period in 2022. The associated restructuring and other expenses during the three months ended September�30, 2023 related to employee severance and other employment termination benefits offered in connection with the wind down of our returns management platform, Returnly.

Other (expense) income, net

Other income, net includes interest earned on our money market funds included in cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash, interest earned on securities available for sale, gains and losses on derivative agreements and other liabilities driven by changes in fair value, amortization of convertible debt issuance cost as well as gains (losses) on extinguishment, revolving credit facility issuance costs.

Other income, net increased by $2.7 million, or 7%, during the three�months ended September�30, 2023 compared to the same period in 2022. The increase is primarily driven by an increase in interest income from cash and investments of $10.5 million during the three�months ended September�30, 2023 compared to the same period in 2022 due to higher interest rates. Additionally, we recognized a gain of $3.5 million on the changes in fair value of liabilities, primarily related to our profit sharing liability, during the three�months ended September�30, 2023 compared to a loss of $5.3 million on other liabilities in the same period in 2022, an increase of $8.8 million. We also had a $9.9 million increase in other income related to the wind down of Returnly and our partnership with a third party returns provider. The increase is partially offset by a $4.0 million gain on derivative instruments during the three�months ended September�30, 2023 compared to a $30.7 million gain during the same period in 2022, a decrease of $26.7 million, primarily driven by more stable interest rates.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Sources and Uses of Funds

We maintain a capital-efficient model through a diverse set of funding sources. When we originate a loan directly or purchase a loan originated by our originating bank partners, we often utilize warehouse credit facilities with certain lenders to finance our lending activities or loan purchases. We sell the loans we originate or purchase from our originating bank partners to whole loan buyers and securitization investors through forward flow arrangements and securitization transactions, and earn servicing fees from continuing to act as the servicer on the loans. We proactively manage the allocation of loans on our platform across various funding channels based on several factors including, but not limited to, internal risk limits and policies, capital market conditions and channel economics. With rising interest rates and inflation, our excess funding capacity and committed and long-term relationships with a diverse group of existing funding partners help provide flexibility as we optimize our funding to support the growth in loan volume.

Our principal sources of liquidity are cash and cash equivalents, available for sale securities, available capacity from warehouse and revolving credit facilities, revolving securitizations, forward flow loan sale arrangements, and certain cash flows from our operations. As of September�30, 2023, we had $2.1 billion in cash and cash equivalents and available for sale securities, $2.8 billion in available funding debt capacity, excluding our purchase commitments from third party loan buyers, and $205.0 million in borrowing capacity available under our revolving credit facility.

U.S.

Our warehouse credit facilities allow us to borrow up to an aggregate of $4.0 billion, mature between 2024 and 2031 and subject to covenant compliance, generally permit borrowings up to 12 months prior to the final maturity date. As of September�30, 2023, we have drawn an aggregate of $1.4 billion on our warehouse credit facilities. As of September�30, 2023, we were in compliance with all applicable covenants in the agreements.

International

We use various credit facilities to finance the origination of loan receivables in Canada. Similar to our U.S. warehouse credit facilities, borrowings under these agreements are referred to as funding debt, and proceeds from the borrowings may only be used for the purposes of facilitating loan funding and origination. These facilities are secured by Canadian loan receivables pledged to the respective facility as collateral, mature between 2025 and 2029. As of September�30, 2023, the aggregate commitment amount of these facilities was $505.5 million on a revolving basis, of which $360.4 million was drawn.

Sale and Repurchase Agreements

We have various sale and repurchase agreements pursuant to our retained interests in our off-balance sheet securitizations where we have sold these securities to a counterparty with an obligation to repurchase at a future date and price. These agreements have an initial term of three months and subject to mutual agreement by Affirm and the counterparty, we may enter into one or more repurchase date extensions, each for an additional three month term at market interest rates on such extension date. We had $5.9 million and $11.0 million in debt outstanding under our sale and repurchase agreements disclosed within funding debt on the interim consolidated balance sheets as of September�30, 2023 and June�30, 2023, respectively.

Other Funding Sources

Securitizations

In connection with asset-backed securitizations, we sponsor and establish trusts (deemed to be VIEs) to ultimately purchase loans facilitated by our platform. Securities issued from our asset-backed securitizations are senior or subordinated, based on the waterfall criteria of loan payments to each security class. The subordinated residual interests issued from these transactions are first to absorb credit losses in accordance with the waterfall criteria. We consolidate securitization VIEs when we are deemed to be the primary beneficiary and therefore have

66

– III-83 –

APPENDIX III MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF AFFIRM

Table of Contents

the power to direct the activities that most significantly affect the VIEs’ economic performance and a variable interest that could potentially be significant to the VIE. Where we consolidate the securitization trusts, the loans held in the securitization trusts are included in loans held for investment, and the notes sold to third-party investors are recorded in notes issued by securitization trusts in the interim condensed consolidated balance sheets. Refer to Note 10. Securitization and Variable Interest Entities for further details.

Revolving Credit Facility

In February 2022, we entered into a revolving credit agreement for a $165.0 million unsecured revolving credit facility, maturing on February�4, 2025, which was subsequently amended to increase the unsecured revolving commitments to $205.0 million. As of September�30, 2023, there were no borrowings outstanding under the facility. The facility contains certain covenants and restrictions, including certain financial maintenance covenants. As of September�30, 2023, we were in compliance with all applicable covenants in the agreements. Refer to Note 9. Debt in the notes to the interim condensed consolidated financial statements for further details on our revolving credit facility.

Forward Flow Loan Sale Arrangements

We have forward flow loan sale arrangements that facilitate the sale of whole loans to counterparties. Forward flow arrangements are generally fixed term in nature, with term lengths ranging between one to three years, during which we periodically sell loans to our counterparties.

Cash Flows from Operating Activities

Our largest sources of operating cash are fees charged to merchant partners on transactions processed through our platform and interest income from consumers’ loans. Our primary uses of cash from operating activities are for general and administrative, technology and data analytics, funding costs, processing and servicing, and sales and marketing expenses.

For the three months ended September 30, 2023, net cash used in operating activities of $98.9 million stemmed from a net loss of $171.8 million, an unfavorable change in our operating assets net of operating liabilities of $8.9 million, including net cash outflows from the sale and purchase of loans of $5.9 million, partially offset by a positive adjustment for non-cash items of $279.6 million. The change in operating assets net of operating liabilities was primarily a result of an increase of our purchase and sale of loans held for sale activities. We purchased loans of $1.2 billion, which was offset by proceeds from loan sales of $1.2 billion. The positive adjustment for non-cash items primarily consisted of provision for credit losses of $99.7 million, which increased by $35.4 million as a result of the growth in the volume of loans held for investment and gain on sale of loans of $34.3 million which increased by $29.3 million driven by the increase in loan sale volume to third-party loan buyer, partially offset by the amortization expense of $40.1 million associated with our commercial agreement asset with Shopify, which decreased by $12.8 million.

For the three months ended September 30, 2022, net cash provided by operating activities was $51.2 million. This reflects a net loss of $251.4 million, offset by a favorable change in our operating assets net of operating liabilities of $13.4 million, a favorable change in net proceeds from sale and purchase of loans of $52.6

million and a positive adjustment for non-cash items of $236.5 million. The change in operating assets net of operating liabilities was primarily a result of our purchase and sale of loans held for sale activities. We purchased loans of $1.7 billion, which was offset by proceeds from loan sales of $1.7 billion. The positive adjustment for non-cash items was primarily driven by commercial agreement assets of $108.7 million, and stock-based compensation of $119.8 million, which saw an increase resulting from incremental compensation recognized from award modifications and increased headcount, offset by a loss on sale of loans of $63.6 million,

Cash Flows from Investing Activities

For the three months ended September 30, 2023, net cash provided by investing activities of $15.9 million was primarily attributable to repayments of loans and proceeds from sale of loans of $4.1 billion and proceeds from maturities and repayments of securities available for sale of $262.3 million, partially offset by purchases and origination of loans held for investment of $4.2 billion. Loan repayments and sale of loans of $4.1 billion during the period represented an increase of $1.6 billion, compared to the same period in 2022, due in part to shifting of the length of loan terms on our balance sheet netted off by higher average balance of loans held for investment compared to the same period in 2022. During the period we originated loans of $913.6 million and purchased loans of $3.3 billion, representing a combined decrease of $1.5 billion compared to the same period in 2022.

For the three months ended September 30, 2022, net cash provided by investing activities of $117.3 million was primarily attributable to purchases and origination of loans held for investment of $2.7 billion, partially offset by repayments of loans of $2.5 billion. During the period, we originated loans of $836.8 million and purchased loans of $1.9 billion, representing an increase compared to the same quarter of the prior year, due partly to continued growth in GMV. The repayments on loans of $2.5 billion during the period represented an increase compared to the same quarter of the prior year, due to a higher average balance of loans held for investment and generally increasing credit quality of the portfolio. The additional offset during the three months ended September 30, 2022 related to the net proceeds from maturities of securities available for sale of $359.9 million, representing an increase compared to the same quarter of the prior year.

Cash Flows from Financing Activities

For the three months ended September 30, 2023, net cash provided by financing activities of $148.8 million, was primarily attributable to net cash inflows from the issuance and repayment of notes and certificates issued for the securitization trust of $234.6 million, and partially offset by net cash outflows related to the repayment of funding debt of $42.4 million. Our payments of debt issuance costs were in the normal course of business and reflective of our recurring warehouse credit facility activity, which involves securing new warehouse credit facilities and extending existing warehouse credit facilities. Additionally, we paid taxes related to RSU vesting of $36.5 million.

For the three months ended September 30, 2022, net cash provided by financing activities of $199.5 million, was primarily attributable to proceeds from funding debt and notes and residual trust certificates for the securitization trusts of $1.4 billion. These were partially offset by our debt repayments related to our lending activities of $1.2 billion, of which $1.1 billion were related to our warehouse credit facilities. Our payments of debt issuance costs were in the normal course of business and reflective of our recurring warehouse credit facility activity, which involves securing new warehouse credit facilities and extending existing warehouse credit facilities. Finally, we paid taxes related to RSU vesting of $27.3 million.

Contractual Obligations

There were no material changes outside of the ordinary course of business in our commitments and contractual obligations for the three months ended September�30, 2023 from the commitments and contractual obligations disclosed in the section titled “ Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations — Contractual Obligations ,” set forth in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June�30, 2023, which was filed with the SEC on August�25, 2023.

APPENDIX III MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF AFFIRM

Table of Contents

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

In the ordinary course of business, we engage in activities that are not reflected on our interim condensed consolidated balance sheets, generally referred to as off-balance sheet arrangements. These activities involve transactions with unconsolidated VIEs, including our sponsored securitization transactions, which we contractually service.

For off-balance sheet loan sales where servicing is the only form of continuing involvement, we could experience a loss if we were required to repurchase a loan due to a breach in representations and warranties associated with our loan sale or servicing contracts. For unconsolidated securitization transactions where Affirm is the sponsor and risk retention holder, Affirm could experience a loss of up to 5% of both the senior notes and residual trust certificates. As of September�30, 2023, the aggregate outstanding balance of loans held by third-party investors for off-balance sheet VIEs was $4.3 billion. In the unlikely event principal payments on the loans backing any off-balance sheet securitization are insufficient to pay holders of senior notes and residual trust certificates, including any retained interests held by Affirm, then any amounts we contributed to the securitization reserve accounts may be depleted. Refer to Note 10. Securitization and Variable Interest Entities for further details.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP and requires us to make certain estimates and judgments that affect the amounts reported in our consolidated financial statements. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Because certain of these accounting policies require significant judgment, our actual results may differ materially from our estimates. To the extent that there are differences between our estimates and actual results, our future consolidated financial statement presentation, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows may be affected. We evaluate our critical accounting policies and estimates on an ongoing basis and update them as necessary based on changes in market conditions or factors specific to us. There have been no material changes in our significant accounting policies or critical accounting estimates during the three months ended September�30, 2023.

For a complete discussion of our significant accounting policies and critical accounting estimates, refer to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June�30, 2023 within Note 2 to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements and “ Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations— Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates ”.
