Green Dot Reports Second Quarter 2020 Results

Pasadena, CA - August 4, 2020 - Green Dot Corporation (NYSE: GDOT) today reported financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2020.

“During this incredibly unfortunate pandemic, we are proud that our products and services were used and relied upon by millions of consumers and small businesses directly and through our partners to receive much needed funds and support from various government entities. This unprecedented crisis also clearly illustrates the strength of the diversified business of Green Dot as well as long term opportunities for widespread digital payments adoption.” said Dan Henry, CEO. "I'm very optimistic about the potential we have and thrilled about the leadership team we have put together over these past three months."

GAAP financial results for the second quarter of 2020 compared to the second quarter of 2019:

•Total operating revenues on a generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) basis were $316.2 million for the second quarter of 2020, up from $278.3 million for the second quarter of 2019.

•GAAP net income was $3.3 million for the second quarter of 2020, compared to net income of $34.7 million for the second quarter of 2019.

•GAAP diluted earnings per common share was $0.06 for the second quarter of 2020, compared to diluted earnings per share of $0.64 for the second quarter of 2019.

Non-GAAP financial results for the second quarter of 2020 compared to the second quarter of 2019:^1^

•Non-GAAP total operating revenues^1^were $300.0 million for the second quarter of 2020, up from $265.0 million for the second quarter of 2019, representing a year-over-year increase of 13%.

•Adjusted EBITDA^1^ was $45.3 million, or 15.1% of non-GAAP total operating revenues^1^ for the second quarter of 2020, down from $74.6 million, or 28.2% of non-GAAP total operating revenues^1^ for the second quarter of 2019.

--- ---

“During the second quarter, many of our KPIs experienced accelerating growth, specifically, the number of direct deposit active accounts grew year-over-year by 35% and our gross dollar volume and purchase volume grew by 51% and 31%, respectively.” said Jess Unruh, interim CFO. "We saw a strong recovery from the combination of stimulus funds and incremental unemployment benefits provided under the CARES Act and the acceleration of many of the digital payment trends that existed pre-COVID. This resulted in a higher demand and usage of our products and services that has persisted into July."

2020 Financial Guidance

The continued uncertainty regarding the duration and the related impact of COVID-19 on the U.S. economy and any government response makes it is difficult for Green Dot to reasonably estimate its future financial results at this time; therefore, Green Dot will not be providing a financial outlook for the full year 2020.

Business Update Related to COVID-19

Green Dot has taken steps to ensure the health and safety of our employees and continued service to our customers and partners, while at the same time seeking to mitigate the impact of the pandemic on our financial condition and results of operations.

Employees and business continuity plan

Over the course of the first quarter in 2020, Green Dot enacted business continuity plans in Shanghai, China and across the United States, mandated that its employees work from home, required contractors to work remotely and implemented strict travel restrictions. Green Dot's employees have been successful in maintaining its operations in a remote work environment and its offices in China have since reopened consistent with local guidelines. Green Dot experienced disruption in staffing levels at its third-party call centers across the globe during March and second quarter of 2020. Green Dot has since restored these staffing levels and continues to work with its partners to monitor business operations.

Trends in key metrics and revenue

Overall, the year-over-year trends in Green Dot's key metrics and revenues in January and February were strong and then exhibited a marked slowdown in late March and early April as the impact of COVID-19 intensified. As the second quarter of 2020 progressed, key metrics and revenue improved as new and existing customers utilized Green Dot's platform to receive stimulus funds and unemployment benefits.

The extent of the impacts from these conditions remains uncertain and dependent on various factors, including the continued severity and transmission rate of the virus, the nature of and duration for which the preventative measures remain in place, the extent and effectiveness of containment and mitigation actions, the type of stimulus measures and other policy responses that the U.S. government may further adopt, and the impact of these and other factors on Green Dot's employees, customers, retail distributors, partners and vendors.

Impacts on interest income, cost structure and liquidity

In March 2020, the Federal Reserve announced reductions in short-term interest rates that have lowered the yields on Green Dot's cash and investment balances and therefore, Green Dot expects a reduction in the amount of interest income it earns for the remainder of the year.

As a result of these conditions since the beginning of this pandemic, Green Dot has experienced and may continue to experience increased costs, including higher call center costs and disputed transaction losses. While Green Dot has implemented cost-saving measures to offset increased costs and are otherwise working to mitigate the conditions driving our higher costs, the conditions caused by the pandemic could continue to adversely affect Green Dot's business, results of operations, and financial condition in future periods.

Green Dot has taken steps to strengthen its liquidity position and ensure it has ample flexibility to pursue strategic priorities, instituting an enterprise-wide headcount freeze and delaying or reducing non-critical projects. Green Dot has $100 million available under its revolving credit facility should it need additional liquidity in the short-term.

Conference Call

Green Dot will host a conference call to discuss second quarter 2020 financial results today at 5:00 p.m. ET. Hosting the call will be Dan Henry, Chief Executive Officer, and Jess Unruh, interim Chief Financial Officer. The conference call can be accessed live from Green Dot's investor relations website at http://ir.greendot.com/. A replay of the webcast will be available at the same website following the call. The replay will be available until Tuesday August 11, 2020.

About Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To supplement Green Dot's consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP), Green Dot uses measures of operating results that are adjusted to exclude, among other things, non-operating net interest income and expense; income tax benefit and expense; depreciation and amortization, including amortization of acquired intangibles; certain legal settlement charges; stock-based compensation and related employer payroll taxes; change in the fair value of contingent consideration; impairment charges; extraordinary severance and related restructuring expenses; gains or losses from equity method investments; realized gains or losses on the sale of investment securities; commissions and certain processing-related costs associated with BaaS products and services where Green Dot does not control customer acquisition; other charges and income; and income tax effects.

These non-GAAP financial measures are not calculated or presented in accordance with, and are not alternatives or substitutes for, financial measures prepared in accordance

with GAAP, and should be read only in conjunction with Green Dot's financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP.

Green Dot believes that the presentation of non-GAAP financial measures provides useful information to management and investors regarding underlying trends in its consolidated financial condition and results of operations.

Green Dot's operations are comprised of two reportable segments: 1) Account Services and 2) Processing and Settlement Services. The Account Services segment consists of revenues and expenses derived from Green Dot's deposit account programs, such as prepaid cards, debit cards, consumer and small business checking accounts, secured credit cards, payroll debit cards and gift cards. These deposit account programs are marketed under several of Green Dot's leading consumer brand names and under the brand names of Green Dot's Banking as a Service, or "BaaS," partners. The Processing and Settlement Services segment consists of revenues and expenses derived from Green Dot's products and services that specialize in facilitating the movement of cash on behalf of consumers and businesses, such as consumer cash processing services, wage disbursements and tax refund processing services. The Corporate and Other segment primarily consists of eliminations of intersegment revenues and expenses, unallocated corporate expenses, depreciation and amortization, and other costs that are not considered when management evaluates segment performance.

(1)To supplement Green Dot’s consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with GAAP, Green Dot uses measures of operating results that are adjusted to exclude various, primarily non-cash, expenses and charges. These financial measures are not calculated or presented in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered as alternatives to or substitutes for operating revenues, operating income, net income or any other measure of financial performance calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. These financial measures may not be comparable to similarly-titled measures of other organizations because other organizations may not calculate their measures in the same manner as Green Dot does. These financial measures are adjusted to eliminate the impact of items that Green Dot does not consider indicative of its core operating performance. You are encouraged to evaluate these adjustments and the reasons Green Dot considers them appropriate.

Green Dot believes that the non-GAAP financial measures it presents are useful to investors in evaluating Green Dot’s operating performance for the following reasons:

•Green Dot records stock-based compensation from period to period, and recorded stock-based compensation expenses and related employer payroll taxes, net of forfeitures, of approximately $13.8 million and $8.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. By comparing Green Dot’s adjusted EBITDA, non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP diluted earnings per share in different historical periods, investors can evaluate Green Dot’s operating results without the additional variations caused by stock-based compensation expense and related employer payroll taxes, which may not be comparable from period to period due to changes in the fair market value of Green Dot’s Class A common stock (which is influenced by external factors like the volatility of public markets and the financial performance of Green Dot’s peers) and is not a key measure of Green Dot’s operations;

•adjusted EBITDA is widely used by investors to measure a company’s operating performance without regard to items, such as non-operating net interest income and expense, income tax benefit and expense, depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation and related employer payroll taxes, changes in the fair value of contingent consideration, impairment charges, severance costs related to extraordinary personnel reductions, certain legal settlement charges, gains or losses from equity method investments, realized gains or losses on the sale of investment securities, and other charges and income that can vary substantially from company to company depending upon their respective financing structures and accounting policies, the book values of their assets, their capital structures and the methods by which their assets were acquired; and

•securities analysts use adjusted EBITDA as a supplemental measure to evaluate the overall operating performance of companies.

Green Dot’s management uses the non-GAAP financial measures:

▪as measures of operating performance, because they exclude the impact of items not directly resulting from Green Dot’s core operations;

▪for planning purposes, including the preparation of Green Dot’s annual operating budget;

▪to allocate resources to enhance the financial performance of Green Dot’s business;

▪to evaluate the effectiveness of Green Dot’s business strategies;

▪to establish metrics for variable compensation; and

▪in communications with Green Dot’s board of directors concerning Green Dot’s financial performance.

Green Dot understands that, although adjusted EBITDA and other non-GAAP financial measures are frequently used by investors and securities analysts in their evaluations of companies, these measures have limitations as an analytical tool, and you should not consider them in isolation or as substitutes for analysis of Green Dot’s results of operations as reported under GAAP. Some of these limitations are:

▪that these measures do not reflect Green Dot’s capital expenditures or future requirements for capital expenditures or other contractual commitments;

▪that these measures do not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, Green Dot’s working capital needs;

▪that these measures do not reflect non-operating interest expense or interest income;

▪that these measures do not reflect cash requirements for income taxes;

▪that, although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated or amortized will often have to be replaced in the future, and these measures do not reflect any cash requirements for these replacements; and

▪that other companies in Green Dot’s industry may calculate these measures differently than Green Dot does, limiting their usefulness as comparative measures.

(2)Green Dot does not include any income tax impact of the associated non-GAAP adjustment to adjusted EBITDA, as the case may be, because each of these non-GAAP financial measures is provided before income tax expense.

(3)This expense consists primarily of expenses for restricted stock units (including performance-based restricted stock units), performance-based stock options and related employer payroll taxes. Stock-based compensation expense is not comparable from period to period due to changes in the fair market value of Green Dot’s Class A common stock (which is influenced by external factors like the volatility of public markets and the financial performance of Green Dot’s peers) and is not a key measure of Green Dot’s operations. Green Dot excludes stock-based compensation expense from its non-GAAP financial measures primarily because it consists of non-cash expenses that Green Dot does not believe are reflective of ongoing operating results. Green Dot also believes that it is not useful to investors to understand the impact of stock-based compensation to its results of operations. Further, the related employer payroll taxes are dependent upon volatility in Green Dot's stock price, as well as the timing and size of option exercises and vesting of restricted stock units, over which Green Dot has limited to no control. This expense is included as a component of compensation and benefits expenses on Green Dot's consolidated statements of operations.

(4)Green Dot excludes certain income and expenses that are the result of acquisitions. These acquisition-related adjustments include items such as the amortization of acquired intangible assets, changes in the fair value of contingent consideration, settlements of contingencies established at time of acquisition and other acquisition related charges, such as integration charges and professional and legal fees, which result in Green Dot recording expenses or fair value adjustments in its GAAP financial statements. Green Dot analyzes the performance of its operations without regard to these adjustments. In determining whether any acquisition-related adjustment is appropriate, Green Dot takes into consideration, among other things, how such adjustments would or would not aid in the understanding of the performance of its operations. These items are included as a component of other general and administrative expenses on Green Dot's consolidated statements of operations, as applicable for the periods presented.

(5)Green Dot excludes certain income and expenses that are not reflective of ongoing operating results. It is difficult to estimate the amount or timing of these items in advance. Although these events are reflected in Green Dot's GAAP financial statements, Green Dot excludes them in its non-GAAP financial measures because Green Dot believes these items may limit the comparability of ongoing operations with prior and future periods. These adjustments include items such as amortization attributable to deferred financing costs, impairment charges related to internal-use software, gains or losses from equity method investments, credit-related impairment and/or realized gains or losses on the sale of investment securities, legal settlement expenses and other income and expenses, as applicable for the periods presented. In determining whether any such adjustment is appropriate, Green Dot takes into consideration, among other things, how such adjustments would or would not aid in the understanding of the performance of its operations. Each of these adjustments, except for amortization of deferred financing costs, gains and losses from equity method investments and credit-related impairment and/or realized gains and losses on the sale of investment securities, which are all included below operating income, are included within other general and administrative expenses on Green Dot's consolidated statements of operations.

(6)During the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, Green Dot recorded charges of $3.6 million and $4.3 million, respectively, related to compensation in connection with transition and employment agreements of certain former executives. In 2019, Green Dot recorded charges for severance costs related to extraordinary personnel reductions. Although severance expenses are an ordinary part of its operations, the magnitude and scale of this ongoing reduction in workforce for redundancies is not expected to be repeated. This expense is included as a component of compensation and benefits expenses on Green Dot's consolidated statements of operations.

(7)Represents the tax effect for the related non-GAAP measure adjustments using Green Dot's year to date non-GAAP effective tax rate. It also excludes both the impact of excess tax benefits related to stock-based compensation and the IRC §162(m) limitation that applies to performance-based restricted stock units expense as of June 30, 2020.

(8)Represents commissions and certain processing-related costs associated with Banking as a Service ("BaaS") products and services where Green Dot does not control customer acquisition.
