GREEN DOT CORPORATION

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(UNAUDITED)

Note 1—Organization

Green Dot Corporation (“we,” “our,” or “us” refer to Green Dot Corporation and its consolidated subsidiaries) is a financial technology and registered bank holding company focused on making modern banking and money movement accessible for all. Our goal is to deliver trusted, best-in-class money management and payment solutions to our customers and partners, seamlessly connecting people to their money. Our proprietary technology enables faster, more efficient electronic payments and money management, powering intuitive and seamless ways for people to spend, send, control and save their money. Through our bank, we offer a suite of financial products to consumers and businesses including debit, prepaid, checking, credit and payroll cards, as well as robust money processing services, such as cash deposits and disbursements, and tax refund processing.

We were incorporated in Delaware in 1999 and became a bank holding company under the Bank Holding Company Act and a member bank of the Federal Reserve System in December 2011.

Note 2—Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America, or GAAP. We consolidated our wholly-owned subsidiaries and eliminated all significant intercompany balances and transactions.

We have also prepared the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements in conformity with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X and, consequently, they do not include all of the annual disclosures required by GAAP. Reference is made to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 for additional disclosures, including a summary of our significant accounting policies. There have been no material changes to our significant accounting policies during the six months ended June 30, 2021, other than the adoption of the accounting pronouncements discussed herein. In our opinion, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments, consisting of normal and recurring items, necessary for the fair presentation of our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. Future events and their effects cannot be predicted with certainty; accordingly, accounting estimates require the exercise of judgment. These financial statements were prepared using information reasonably available as of June 30, 2021 and through the date of this report. The accounting estimates used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements may change as new events occur, as more experience is acquired, as additional information is obtained, and as our operating environment changes. Actual results may differ from these estimates due to the uncertainty around the magnitude, duration and effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, as well as other factors.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements    

Recently adopted accounting pronouncements

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes (“ASU 2019-12”), which simplifies various aspects related to the accounting for income taxes. The standard removes certain exceptions to the general principles in Topic 740 and also clarifies and modifies existing guidance to improve consistent application of Topic 740. ASU 2019-12 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, including interim periods within those fiscal years. We adopted the provisions of ASU 2019-12 on January 1, 2021, the results of which did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Recently issued accounting pronouncements not yet adopted

In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 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) (“ASU 2020-06”), which simplifies an issuer’s accounting for convertible instruments and its application of the derivatives scope exception for contracts in its own equity. ASU 2020-06 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, including interim periods within those fiscal years. We are currently evaluating the provisions of ASU 2020-06, but do not expect any material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

GREEN DOT CORPORATION

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS – (CONTINUED)

Note 2—Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848) ("ASU 2020-04"), which provides optional expedients and exceptions to GAAP requirements for modifications of debt instruments, leases, derivatives and other transactions that reference the London Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR") or another reference rate expected to be discontinued because of reference rate reform. The guidance permits entities to treat such modifications as the continuation of the original contract, without any required accounting reassessments or remeasurements. The amendments in ASU 2020-04 were effective upon issuance and may be elected over time through December 31, 2022, as reference rate reform activities occur. Upon adoption, the guidance must be applied prospectively for all eligible contract modifications. We do not expect any material impact on our consolidated financial statements as our existing revolving line of credit is based on variable rates available that we elect at the time of borrowing. See Note 9 — Debt, to these consolidated financial statements for additional information.

Note 3—Revenues

As discussed in Note 19 — Segment Information, we determine our operating segments based on how our chief operating decision maker manages our operations, makes operating decisions and evaluates operating performance. Within our segments, we believe that the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of our revenue and cash flows and how they are affected by economic factors can be further illustrated based on the timing in which revenue for each of our products and services is recognized. Our products and services are offered only to customers within the United States.

The following table disaggregates our revenues earned from external customers by each of our reportable segments:

As disclosed on our Consolidated Balance Sheets, we record deferred revenue for any upfront payments received in advance of our performance obligations being satisfied. These contract liabilities consist principally of unearned new card fees and monthly maintenance fees. We recognized approximately $9.1 million and $8.9 million in revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, and $26.6 million and $25.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, that were included in deferred revenue at the beginning of the periods and did not recognize any revenue during these periods from performance obligations satisfied in previous periods. Changes in the deferred revenue balance are driven primarily by the amount of new card fees recognized during the period, and the degree to which these reductions to the deferred revenue balance are offset by the deferral of new card fees associated with cards sold during the period.

Our investments generally consist of highly rated securities, substantially all of which are directly or indirectly backed by the U.S. federal government. Our investment policy restricts our investments to highly liquid, low credit risk assets. As such, we have not recorded any significant credit-related impairment losses during the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 or 2020 on our available-for-sale investment securities. Unrealized losses as of June 30, 2021 are the result of recent fluctuations in interest rates as our investment portfolio is comprised predominantly of fixed rate securities. We do not intend to sell our investments, and we have determined that it is more likely than not that we will not be required to sell our investments before recovery of their amortized cost bases, which may be at maturity.

As of June 30, 2021, the contractual maturities of our available-for-sale investment securities were as follows:

	Amortized cost		Fair value
	(In thousands)
Due after one year through five years	$	10,000	$	10,007
Due after five years through ten years	190,840		185,766
Due after ten years	69,770		68,852
Mortgage and asset-backed securities	834,431		825,888
Total investment securities	$	1,105,041	$	1,090,513

The expected payments on mortgage-backed and asset-backed securities may not coincide with their contractual maturities because the issuers have the right to call or prepay certain obligations.

Our net overdrawn account balances due from cardholders are a result of purchase transactions that we may honor or maintenance fee assessments, in each case, in excess of the funds in the cardholder’s account. While we decline authorization attempts for amounts that exceed the available balance in a cardholder’s account, the application of card association rules, and the timing of the settlement of transactions, among other things, can result in overdrawn accounts. Overdrawn cardholder balances from maintenance fee assessments are presented net of the consideration we expect to receive and are recorded as contra-revenue within card revenues and other fees.

Beginning in 2021, we introduced an optional overdraft protection program service on certain demand deposit account programs that allows cardholders who opt-in to spend a pre-determined amount in excess of their available card balance. When overdrawn, these deposit accounts are reclassified as consumer loans. Overdrawn balances are unsecured and considered immediately due from the cardholder.

Nonperforming Loans

Credit Quality Indicators

We closely monitor and assess the credit quality and credit risk of our loan portfolio on an ongoing basis. We continuously review and update loan risk classifications. We evaluate our loans using non-classified or classified as the primary credit quality indicator. Classified loans are those loans that have demonstrated credit weakness where we believe there is a heightened risk of principal loss, including all impaired loans. Classified loans are generally internally categorized as substandard, doubtful or loss, consistent with regulatory guidelines.

Our secured credit card portfolio is collateralized by cash deposits made by each cardholder in an amount equal to the user's available credit limit, which mitigates the risk of any significant credit losses we expect to incur.

The table below presents the carrying value, gross of the related allowance for credit losses, of our loans within the primary credit quality indicators related to our loan portfolio:

Impaired Loans and Troubled Debt Restructurings

When, for economic or legal reasons related to a borrower’s financial difficulties, we grant a concession for other than an insignificant period of time to a borrower that we would not otherwise consider, the related loan is classified as a Troubled Debt Restructuring, or TDR. Our TDR modifications involve an extension of the maturity date at a stated interest rate lower than the current market rate for new debt with similar risk. As of June 30, 2021, none of our TDR modifications have been made in response to the COVID-19 pandemic.

The following table presents our impaired loans and loans that we modified as TDRs as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020:

Note 7—Equity Method Investment

On January 2, 2020, we effectuated our agreement with Walmart to jointly establish a new fintech accelerator under the name TailFin Labs, LLC (“TailFin Labs”), with a mission to develop innovative products, services and technologies that sit at the intersection of retail shopping and consumer financial services. The entity is majority-owned by Walmart and focuses on developing tech-enabled solutions to integrate omni-channel retail shopping and financial services. We hold a 20% ownership interest in the entity, in exchange for annual capital contributions of $35.0 million per year from January 2020 through January 2024.

We account for our investment in TailFin Labs under the equity method of accounting in accordance with ASC 323, Investments – Equity Method and Joint Ventures. Under the equity method of accounting, the initial investment is recorded at cost and the investment is subsequently adjusted for, among other things, its proportionate share of earnings or losses. However, given the capital structure of the TailFin Labs arrangement, we apply the Hypothetical Liquidation Book Value ("HLBV") method to determine the allocation of profits and losses since our liquidation rights

13

GREEN DOT CORPORATION

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS – (CONTINUED)

Note 7—Equity Method Investment (continued)

and priorities, as defined by the agreement, differ from our underlying ownership interest. The HLBV method calculates the proceeds that would be attributable to each partner in an investment based on the liquidation provisions of the agreement if the partnership was to be liquidated at book value as of the balance sheet date. Each partner’s allocation of income or loss in the period is equal to the change in the amount of net equity they are legally able to claim based on a hypothetical liquidation of the entity at the end of a reporting period compared to the beginning of that period, adjusted for any capital transactions.

Any future economic benefits derived from products or services developed by TailFin Labs will be negotiated on a case-by-case basis between the parties.

As of June 30, 2021, our net investment in TailFin Labs amounted to approximately $61.5 million and is included in the long term portion of prepaid expenses and other assets on our consolidated balance sheet. We recorded equity in losses from TailFin Labs of approximately $0.7 million and $2.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, and $2.3 million and $2.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, which are recorded as a component of other income and expense on our consolidated statement of operations. Total equity in losses also includes income and losses from other investments that are not material to these consolidated financial statements.

Note 9—Debt

2019 Revolving Facility

In October 2019, we entered into a secured credit agreement with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, and other lenders party thereto. The credit facility provides for a $100.0 million five-year revolving line of credit (the "2019 Revolving Facility"), maturing in October 2024. We use the proceeds of any borrowings under the 2019 Revolving Facility for working capital and other general corporate purposes, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the credit agreement. We classify amounts outstanding as long-term on our consolidated balance sheets; however, we may make voluntary repayments at any time prior to maturity. As of June 30, 2021, we had no borrowings outstanding on the 2019 Revolving Facility and had the full amount available for use.

14

GREEN DOT CORPORATION

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS – (CONTINUED)

Note 9—Debt (continued)

At our election, loans made under the credit agreement bear interest at 1) a LIBOR rate (the “LIBOR Rate") or 2) a base rate determined by reference to the highest of (a) the United States federal funds rate plus .50%, (b) the Wells Fargo prime rate and (c) a daily rate equal to one-month LIBOR rate plus 1.0% (the “Base Rate"), plus in either case an applicable margin. The margin is dependent upon on our total leverage ratio and varies from 1.25% to 2.00% for LIBOR Rate loans and .25% to 1.00% for Base Rate loans.

We also pay a commitment fee, which varies from .20% to .35% per annum on the actual daily unused portions of the 2019 Revolving Facility. Letter of credit fees are payable in respect of outstanding letters of credit at a rate per annum equal to the applicable margin for LIBOR Rate loans.

The 2019 Revolving Facility contains certain affirmative and negative covenants including negative covenants that limit or restrict, among other things, liens, indebtedness, investments and acquisitions, mergers and fundamental changes, asset sales, restricted payments, changes in the nature of the business, transactions with affiliates and other matters customarily restricted in such agreements. We must also maintain a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio and a maximum consolidated leverage ratio at the end of each fiscal quarter, as set forth in the credit agreement. At June 30, 2021, we were in compliance with all such covenants.

If an event of default shall occur and be continuing under the facility, the commitments may be terminated and the principal amounts outstanding under the 2019 Revolving Facility, together with all accrued unpaid interest and other amounts owing in respect thereof, may be declared immediately due and payable.

We did not incur any cash interest expense related to our debt during the three and six months ended June 30, 2021. Cash interest expense was $0.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and $0.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020.

Note 10—Income Taxes

Income tax expense for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 differs from the amount computed by applying the statutory federal income tax rate to income before income taxes. The sources and tax effects of the differences are as follows:

	Six Months Ended June 30,
	2021		2020
U.S. federal statutory tax rate	21.0	%	21.0	%
State income taxes, net of federal tax benefit	1.1		(0.6)
General business credits	(1.9)		(6.6)
Employee stock-based compensation	(2.9)		1.8
IRC 162(m) limitation	6.4		8.1
Nondeductible expenses	0.1		0.7
Other	(0.3)		(0.5)
Effective tax rate	23.5	%	23.9	%

The effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 differs from the statutory federal income tax rate of 21%, primarily due to state income taxes, net of federal tax benefits, general business credits, employee stock-based compensation, and the Internal Revenue Code (IRC) 162(m) limitation on the deductibility of executive compensation. The overall decrease in the effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2021 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2020 is primarily due to a decrease of $1.1 million on the IRC 162(m) limitation on the deductibility of executive compensation and an increase of $3.1 million in excess tax benefits from stock-based compensation. We recognized an excess tax benefit on stock-based compensation of $1.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021, compared to a $1.2 million discrete tax expense on shortfalls from stock based compensation for the prior year comparable period.

We have made a policy election to account for Global Intangible Low-Taxed Income ("GILTI") in the year the GILTI tax is incurred. For the six months ended June 30, 2021, the provision for GILTI tax expense was not material to our financial statements.

Note 10—Income Taxes (continued)

We establish a valuation allowance when we consider it more-likely-than-not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. As of June 30, 2021 and 2020, we did not have a valuation allowance on any of our deferred tax assets as we believe it is more-likely-than-not that we will realize the benefits of our deferred tax assets. During the six months ended June 30, 2020, we released our valuation allowance against our capital loss carryforwards, as we recognized capital gains on the sale of certain investment securities during that period sufficient to offset our capital loss carryforward amount.

We are subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service, or IRS, and various state tax authorities. We remain subject to examination of our federal income tax return for the years ended December 31, 2017 through 2020. We generally remain subject to examination of our various state income tax returns for a period of four to five years from the respective dates that the returns were filed. The IRS initiated an examination of our 2017 U.S. federal tax return during the second quarter ended June 30, 2020, and the examination remains ongoing as of June 30, 2021. We do not expect the outcome of this examination will have any material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

As of June 30, 2021, we have federal net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $19.2 million and state net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $68.8 million, which will be available to offset future income. If not used, the federal net operating losses will expire between 2026 and 2034. Of our total state net operating loss carryforwards, approximately $46.6 million will expire between 2023 and 2040, while the remaining balance of approximately $22.2 million does not expire and carries forward indefinitely. The net operating losses are subject to an annual IRC Section 382 limitation, which restricts their utilization against taxable income in future periods. In addition, we have state business tax credits of approximately $19.4 million that can be carried forward indefinitely and other state business tax credits of approximately $1.1 million that will expire between 2023 and 2027.

As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, we had a liability of $11.0 million and $9.5 million, respectively, for unrecognized tax benefits related to various federal and state income tax matters excluding interest, penalties and related tax benefits. The reconciliation of the beginning unrecognized tax benefits balance to the ending balance is as follows:

	Six Months Ended June 30,
	2021		2020
	(In thousands)
Beginning balance	$	9,518	$	8,398
Increases related to positions taken during prior years	—		235

Ending balance	$	10,988	$	9,833
The total amount of unrecognized tax benefits that, if recognized, would affect the effective tax rate	$	10,801	$	9,660

As of June 30, 2021 and 2020, we recognized accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits of approximately $0.6 million and $0.7 million, respectively.

Note 11—Stockholders' Equity

Stock Repurchase Program

In May 2017, our Board of Directors authorized, subject to regulatory approval, expansion of our stock repurchase program by an additional $150 million. As of June 30, 2021, we have an authorized $50 million remaining under our current stock repurchase program for any additional repurchases.

Walmart Restricted Shares

On January 2, 2020, we issued Walmart, in a private placement, 975,000 restricted shares of our Class A Common Stock. The shares vest in equal monthly increments through December 1, 2022. Walmart is entitled to voting rights and participate in any dividends paid from the issuance date on the unvested balance, and therefore, the total amount of restricted shares issued are included in our total Class A shares outstanding. As of June 30, 2021, there were 487,502 unvested shares outstanding. The estimated grant-date fair value of the restricted shares is recorded as a component of stock-based compensation expense over the related period we expect to benefit under the term of our relationship with Walmart.

Note 12—Stock-Based Compensation

We currently grant restricted stock unit awards to employees, directors and non-employee consultants under our 2010 Equity Incentive Plan and from time to time may also grant stock option awards. Through our 2010 Employee Stock Purchase Plan, employees are also able to purchase shares of our Class A common stock at a discount through payroll deductions. We have reserved shares of our Class A common stock for issuance under these plans.

The total stock-based compensation expense recognized was $8.4 million and $13.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, and $25.6 million and $25.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

We grant performance-based restricted stock units to certain employees that are subject to the attainment of pre-established internal performance conditions, market conditions, or a combination thereof (collectively referred to herein as performance-based restricted stock units). The actual number of shares subject to the award is determined at the end of the performance period and may range from 0% to 200% of the target shares granted depending upon the terms of the award. These awards generally contain an additional service component after each performance period is concluded and the unvested balance of the shares after the performance metrics are achieved will vest over the remaining requisite service period. Compensation expense related to these awards is recognized using the accelerated attribution method over the vesting period (generally, a period of at least four years) based on the grant date fair value of the award.

The restricted shares issued to Walmart contain non-forfeitable rights to dividends and are considered participating securities for purposes of computing EPS pursuant to the two-class method. The computation above excludes income attributable to the unvested restricted shares from the numerator and excludes the dilutive impact of those underlying shares from the denominator.

For the periods presented, we excluded certain restricted stock units and stock options outstanding (as applicable), which could potentially dilute basic EPS in the future, from the computation of diluted EPS as their effect was anti-dilutive. Additionally, we have excluded any performance-based restricted stock units where the performance contingency has not been met as of the end of the period. The following table shows the weighted-average number of shares excluded from the diluted EPS calculation as their effects were anti-dilutive:

	Three Months Ended June 30,		Six Months Ended June 30,

Note 14—Fair Value Measurements

Under applicable accounting guidance, fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date.

We determine the fair values of our financial instruments based on the fair value hierarchy established under applicable accounting guidance, which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. There are three levels of inputs used to measure fair value.

For more information regarding the fair value hierarchy and how we measure fair value, see Note 2–Summary of Significant Accounting Policies to the Consolidated Financial Statements of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020.

As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, our assets and liabilities carried at fair value on a recurring basis were as follows:

	Level 1		Level 2		Level 3		Total Fair Value
June 30, 2021	(In thousands)

We based the fair value of our fixed income securities held as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 on quoted prices in active markets for similar assets. We had no transfers between Level 1, Level 2 or Level 3 assets or liabilities during the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 or 2020.

The following table presents changes in our contingent consideration payable for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, which is categorized in Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy:

	Three Months Ended June 30,				Six Months Ended June 30,

Note 15—Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The following describes the valuation technique for determining the fair value of financial instruments, whether or not such instruments are carried at fair value on our consolidated balance sheets.

Short-term Financial Instruments

Our short-term financial instruments consist principally of unrestricted and restricted cash and cash equivalents, settlement assets and obligations, and obligations to customers. These financial instruments are short-term in nature, and, accordingly, we believe their carrying amounts approximate their fair values. Under the fair value hierarchy, these instruments are classified as Level 1.

Investment Securities

The fair values of investment securities have been derived using methodologies referenced in Note 2–Summary of Significant Accounting Policies to the Consolidated Financial Statements of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020. Under the fair value hierarchy, our investment securities are classified as Level 2.

Loans

We determined the fair values of loans by discounting both principal and interest cash flows expected to be collected using a discount rate commensurate with the risk that we believe a market participant would consider in determining fair value. Under the fair value hierarchy, our loans are classified as Level 3.

Deposits

The fair value of demand and interest checking deposits and savings deposits is the amount payable on demand at the reporting date. We determined the fair value of time deposits by discounting expected future cash flows using market-derived rates based on our market yields on certificates of deposit, by maturity, at the measurement date. Under the fair value hierarchy, our deposits are classified as Level 2.

Contingent Consideration

The fair value of contingent consideration obligations, such as the earn-out associated with our acquisition of UniRush LLC ("UniRush") in 2017, is estimated through valuation models designed to estimate the probability of such contingent payments based on various assumptions. Estimated payments are discounted using present value techniques to arrive at an estimated fair value. Our contingent consideration payable is classified as Level 3 because we use unobservable inputs to estimate fair value, including the probability of achieving certain earnings thresholds and appropriate discount rates. Changes in fair value of contingent consideration are recorded through operating expenses.

Debt

The fair value of our revolving line of credit is based on borrowing rates currently available to a market participant for loans with similar terms or maturity. The carrying amount of our outstanding revolving line of credit approximates fair value because the base interest rate charged varies with market conditions and the credit spread is commensurate with current market spreads for issuers of similar risk. The fair value of the revolving line of credit is classified as a Level 2 liability in the fair value hierarchy.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The carrying values and fair values of certain financial instruments that were not carried at fair value, excluding short-term financial instruments for which the carrying value approximates fair value, at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 are presented in the table below.

	June 30, 2021				December 31, 2020
	Carrying Value		Fair Value		Carrying Value		Fair Value

Note 16—Leases

Our leases consist of operating lease agreements principally related to our corporate and subsidiary office locations. Currently, we do not enter into any financing lease agreements. Our leases have remaining lease terms of less than 1 year to approximately 5 years, many of which include renewal options of varying terms.

As of December 31, 2020, we committed to a remote workforce strategy for most U.S. based employees and recorded a substantial impairment charge to our lease right-of-use assets as we no longer intend to utilize our leased office spaces in the U.S. for the duration of our remaining lease terms. Our lease agreements have or will be terminated in due course in accordance with our lease provisions; however, we may be contractually obligated to continue making lease payments where no termination option is available.

Our total lease expense amounted to approximately $0.6 million and $2.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, and $1.8 million and $4.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. Our lease expense is generally based on fixed payments stated within the agreements. Any variable payments for non-lease components and other short term lease expenses are not considered material.

Note 17—Commitments and Contingencies

Financial Commitments

In May 2021, we announced that we entered into a definitive agreement to purchase the assets and operations of Tax Refund Solutions (“TRS”), a business segment of Republic Bank & Trust Company ("Republic Bank"), subject to customary closing conditions. Pursuant to the terms of the definitive agreement, we have agreed to pay Republic Bank approximately $165 million in cash for the TRS assets. We are seeking the Federal Reserve’s approval of or non-objection, as applicable, to the proposed transaction. The parties are working to complete the proposed transaction in the third quarter of 2021.

As discussed in Note 7 — Equity Method Investment, we are committed to make annual capital contributions in TailFin Labs, LLC of $35.0 million per year through January 2024.

Our definitive agreement to acquire all of the equity interests of UniRush provides for a minimum $4 million annual earn-out payment for five years following the closing, ending in February 2022. As of June 30, 2021, the estimated fair value of our remaining earn-out payments amounted to $3.3 million, and is recorded in the current portion of other accrued liabilities on our consolidated balance sheets.

Note 17—Commitments and Contingencies (continued)

Litigation and Claims

In the ordinary course of business, we are a party to various legal proceedings, including, from time to time, actions which are asserted to be maintainable as class action suits. We review these actions on an ongoing basis to determine whether it is probable and estimable that a loss has occurred and use that information when making accrual and disclosure decisions. We have provided reserves where necessary for all claims and, based on current knowledge and in part upon the advice of legal counsel, all matters are believed to be adequately covered by insurance, or, if not covered, we do not expect the outcome in any legal proceedings, individually or collectively, to have a material adverse impact on our financial condition or results of operations.

On December 18, 2019, an alleged class action entitled Koffsmon v. Green Dot Corp., et al., No. 19-cv-10701-DDP-E, was filed in the United States District Court for the Central District of California, against us and two of our former officers. The suit asserts purported claims under Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Exchange Act for allegedly misleading statements regarding our business strategy. Plaintiff alleges that defendants made statements that were misleading because they allegedly failed to disclose details regarding our customer acquisition strategy and its impact on our financial performance. The suit is purportedly brought on behalf of purchasers of our securities between May 9, 2018 and November 7, 2019, and seeks compensatory damages, fees and costs. On February 18, 2020, a shareholder derivative suit and securities class action entitled Hellman v. Streit, et al, No. 20-cv-01572-SVW-PVC was filed in United States District Court for the Central District of California, against us and certain of our officers and directors. The suit avers purported breach of fiduciary duty and unjust enrichment claims, as well as claims under Sections 10(b), 14(a) and 20(a) of the Exchange Act, on the basis of the same wrongdoing alleged in the first lawsuit described above. The suit does not define the purported class allegedly damaged. These cases have been related. We have not yet responded to the complaints in these matters.

Due to the inherent uncertainties of litigation, we cannot accurately predict the ultimate outcome of this matter. We are unable at this time to determine whether the outcome of the litigation would have a material impact on our results of operations, financial condition or cash flows.

Other Legal Matters

We monitor the laws of all 50 states to identify state laws or regulations that apply (or may apply) to our products and services. We have obtained money transmitter licenses (or similar such licenses) where applicable, based on advice of counsel or when we have been requested to do so. If we were found to be in violation of any laws and regulations governing banking, money transmitters, electronic fund transfers, or money laundering in the United States or abroad, we could be subject to penalties or could be forced to change our business practices.

From time to time we enter into contracts containing provisions that contingently require us to indemnify various parties against claims from third parties. These contracts primarily relate to: (i) contracts with our card issuing banks, under which we are responsible to them for any unrecovered overdrafts on cardholders’ accounts; (ii) certain real estate leases, under which we may be required to indemnify property owners for environmental and other liabilities, and other claims arising from our use of the premises; (iii) certain agreements with our officers, directors, and employees, under which we may be required to indemnify these persons for liabilities arising out of their relationship with us; and (iv) contracts under which we may be required to indemnify our retail distributors, suppliers, vendors and other parties with whom we have contracts against claims arising from certain of our actions, omissions, violations of law and/or infringement of patents, trademarks, copyrights and/or other intellectual property rights.

Generally, a maximum obligation under these contracts is not explicitly stated. Because the obligated amounts associated with these types of agreements are not explicitly stated, the overall maximum amount of the obligation cannot be reasonably estimated. With the exception of overdrafts on cardholders’ accounts, historically, we have not been required to make payments under these and similar contingent obligations, and no liabilities have been recorded for these obligations in our consolidated balance sheets.

For additional information regarding overdrafts on cardholders’ accounts, refer to Note 5 — Accounts Receivable.

Note 18—Significant Retailer and Partner Concentration

A credit concentration may exist if customers are involved in similar industries, economic sectors, and geographic regions. Our retail distributors operate in similar economic sectors but diverse domestic geographic regions. The loss of a significant retail distributor could have a material adverse effect upon our card sales, profitability, and revenue growth.

Revenues derived from our products sold at retail distributors constituting greater than 10% of our total operating revenues were as follows:

	Three Months Ended June 30,		Six Months Ended June 30,
	2021	2020	2021	2020
Walmart	23%	29%	24%	27%

In addition, approximately 20% and 18% of our total operating revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively, were generated from a single BaaS partner, without a corresponding concentration to our gross profit for the period.

Note 19—Segment Information

Effective beginning with the first quarter of 2021, we have realigned our segment financial reporting based on how our current Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) manages our businesses, including resource allocation and performance assessment. Our CODM organizes and manages the business primarily on the basis of the channels in which our product and services are offered and uses net revenues and segment profit to assess profitability. Segment profit reflects each segment's net revenue less direct costs, such as sales and marketing expenses, processing expenses, third-party call center support and transaction losses. As a result of this realignment, our operations are now aggregated amongst three reportable segments: 1) Consumer Services, 2) Business to Business ("B2B") Services, and 3) Money Movement Services.

Our Consumer Services segment consists of revenues and expenses derived from deposit account programs, such as consumer checking accounts, prepaid cards, secured credit cards, and gift cards that we offer to consumers (i) through distribution arrangements with more than 90,000 retail locations and thousands of neighborhood Financial Service Center locations (the "Retail" channel), and (ii) directly through various marketing channels, such as online search engine optimization, online displays, direct mail campaigns, mobile advertising, and affiliate referral programs (the "Direct" channel).

Our B2B Services segment consists of revenues and expenses derived from (i) our partnerships with some of America's most prominent consumer and technology companies that make our banking products and services available to their consumers, partners and workforce through integration with our banking platform (the "Banking-as-a-Service", or "BaaS" channel), and (ii) a comprehensive payroll platform that we offer to corporate enterprises (the "Employer" channel) to facilitate payments for today’s workforce. Our products and services in this segment include deposit account programs, such as consumer and small business checking accounts and prepaid cards, as well as our Simply Paid Disbursements services utilized by our partners.

Our Money Movement Services segment consists of revenues and expenses generated on a per transaction basis from our services that specialize in facilitating the movement of cash on behalf of consumers and businesses, such as money processing services and tax refund processing services. Our money processing services are marketed to third-party banks, program managers, and other companies seeking cash deposit and disbursement capabilities for their customers. Those customers, including our own cardholders, can access our cash deposit and disbursement services at any of the locations within our network of retail distributors and neighborhood Financial Service Centers. We market our tax-related financial services through a network of tax preparation franchises, independent tax professionals and online tax preparation providers.

The Corporate and Other segment primarily consists of net interest income earned by our bank, eliminations of intersegment revenues and expenses, unallocated corporate expenses, and other fixed costs that are not considered when our CODM evaluates segment performance, such as salaries, wages and related benefits for our employees, professional service fees, software licenses, telephone and communication costs, rent and utilities, and insurance. We do not evaluate performance or allocate resources based on segment asset data, and therefore such information is not presented.

Our total operating revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 increased $53.1 million, or 17%, and $84.5 million, or 12%, respectively, over the prior year comparable periods, generating revenue growth across our Consumer Services and B2B Services segments, partially offset by lower revenues earned from our Money Movement Services through the first half of the year.

Our deposit account programs within our Consumer Services and B2B Services segments continue to benefit from organic growth as the demand for digital payments continues. We have seen a fundamental shift in consumer behavior towards electronic payments throughout the COVID-19 pandemic that has created a higher demand and usage of our products and services. Additionally, these two segments have benefited from economic stimulus funds and incremental unemployment benefits enacted by the U.S. federal government. In December 2020, an additional $900 billion economic stimulus package was signed into law, providing for additional direct payments and enhanced unemployment benefits. In March 2021, another $1.9 trillion economic package was authorized under the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021, which provides for additional direct payments and enhanced unemployment benefits through September 2021. As a result of organic growth and the benefit of U.S. government actions, our total gross dollar volume and purchase volume grew by 15% and 5%, respectively, for the three months ended June 30, 2021, and 29% and 15%, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2021 over the prior year comparable periods. The growth in these key metrics resulted in year-over-year increases in BaaS program management service fee revenues earned from platform partners, monthly maintenance fees, and interchange revenues across our deposit account programs. Our Consumer Services segment has also benefited from fees associated with the introduction of our optional overdraft protection program services made available to cardholders across our portfolios, including our Go2bank product launched earlier this year, and favorable decreases in the amount of cash back rewards on our legacy card programs due to changes in consumer behavioral trends and the estimated redemption amounts.

Total Money Movement Services revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2021 remained consistent with the prior year comparable period. Within our Money Movement Services, our tax processing revenues have increased on a year-over-year basis for the three months ended June 30, 2021 primarily due to timing shifts in the number of tax refunds processed for the comparable periods. Tax refunds processed for the 2021 tax season shifted from the first quarter of 2021 to the second quarter of 2021 as a result of the extension of the tax filing deadlines to the latter half of the second quarter of the year, while a number of tax refunds processed during the prior year 2020 tax season shifted into the third quarter of 2020 also due to extended filing deadlines. The revenue impact from the shift in refund transfer volumes to the second quarter of 2021 was partially offset by lower unit economics earned from refund transfers with one of our largest customers, which was agreed upon in exchange for securing a multi-year arrangement. The net increase in our tax processing revenues during the second quarter of 2021 was offset by a decline in the number of cash transfers processed, in part due to our decision not to renew a reload partner agreement in the fourth quarter of 2020. The non-renewal of this agreement will continue to impact the number of cash transfers and, to a lesser extent, profitability within the segment for the remainder of the year, but any year-over-year growth or decline in cash transfers in 2021 will be dependent on multiple factors, including the level of growth of deposit account programs in our Consumer Services and B2B Services segments.

Money Movement Services revenues decreased year-over-year for the six months ended June 30, 2021 as a result of the lower unit economics earned from refund transfers with one of our largest customers and a decline in the number of cash transfers processed, as discussed above.

Total operating expenses

Our total operating expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 increased $26.7 million, or 9%, and $82.9 million, or 13%, respectively, over the prior year comparable periods. This increase was the result of several factors, including higher processing expenses within our B2B Services segment associated with the growth of certain BaaS account programs and an increase in sales and marketing expenses in our Consumer Services segment to promote our recently launched GO2bank product during tax season. As such, we have incurred more marketing expenses in the first half of 2021 than we expect to incur in the second half. Both of these segments experienced an increase in third-party call center support, a component of compensation and benefits expenses, to meet the increased demand in our customer service center as a result of the federal relief programs described above. In addition, both of these segments experienced year-over-year growth in transaction losses, a component within other general and administrative expenses, in connection with the growth in purchase volume and the introduction of our overdraft protection services. Compensation and benefits expenses within Corporate and Other expenses also increased principally due to the timing of bonus compensation.

During 2021, we intend to continue to make investments that we believe will help to accelerate revenue growth and allow margins to expand in 2022 and beyond, including reinvesting any incremental revenue benefit in 2021,

26

such as revenue associated with the March 2021 economic stimulus package, into marketing efforts for our newly launched GO2bank product. In addition to marketing investments, our other growth oriented investments are focused on improving our customer's overall experience and building a modern and scalable core banking and card management platform that reduces our reliance on third-party processors and increases our ability to innovate and preserve margins. As such, we expect to continue incurring higher costs year-over-year associated with third-party call centers, a component of compensation and benefits expenses, in our Consumer Services and B2B Services segments. We also expect our salaries and wages expenses to increase, which are also a component of compensation and benefits expenses, as we expect to expand our headcount in order to support our customer experience efforts and our implementation of a modernized banking platform. Additionally, we expect our implementation to increase components of other general and administrative expenses, such as software license and hosting costs.

Income taxes

Our income tax expense for the six months ended June 30, 2021 decreased $0.2 million, or 1%, on a year-over-year basis. Our effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2021 was 23.5%, compared to 23.9% for the prior year period. The effective rates differ from our statutory rate due to the impact of items such as the IRC 162(m) limitation on the deductibility of executive compensation, state income taxes, general business credits, and the tax effects associated with stock-based compensation.

COVID-19 Update

Most of our U.S. personnel continue to operate remotely and in response to our remote workforce strategy, we are in the process of closing most our U.S. leased office locations. However, we will be required to continue making our contractual payments until our operating leases are formally terminated or expire.

While we believe our cardholder programs will continue to benefit from the governmental economic relief packages signed into law, as well as the accelerated adoption of digital payments during the pandemic, we expect our key performance indicators will normalize as the effect of governmental actions lessen.

In response to the economic impact caused by COVID-19, the Federal Reserve announced reductions in short-term interest rates in March 2020 that have lowered the yields on our cash and investment balances and therefore, we continue to experience a reduction in the amount of interest income we earn. An extended duration of near zero short-term interest rates will continue to impact the amount of net interest income we earn in the future.

The duration and magnitude of the continuing effects of COVID-19 remain uncertain and dependent on various factors, including the continued severity and transmission rate of the virus, new variants of the virus, the nature of and duration for which preventative measures remain in place, the extent and effectiveness of containment and mitigation efforts, including vaccination programs, and the type of stimulus measures and other policy responses that the U.S. government may further adopt.

See Part II, Item 1A, Risk Factors, for an additional discussion of risk related to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Consolidated Key Metrics

We review a number of metrics to help us monitor the performance of, and identify trends affecting, our business. We believe the following measures are the primary indicators of our quarterly and annual revenues:

	Three Months Ended June 30,								Six Months Ended June 30,
	2021		2020		Change		%		2021		2020		Change		%
	(In millions, except percentages)
Gross Dollar Volume	$	17,399	$	15,107	$	2,292	15.2	%	$	38,065	$	29,401	$	8,664	29.5	%
Number of Active Accounts*	6.03		6.25		(0.22)		(3.5)	%	n/a		n/a		n/a		n/a
Purchase Volume	$	8,870	$	8,477	$	393	4.6	%	$	19,315	$	16,759	$	2,556	15.3	%
Cash Transfers	10.19		12.48		(2.29)		(18.3)	%	20.51		24.61		(4.1)		(16.7)	%
Tax Refunds Processed	4.15		1.90		2.25		118.4	%	11.59		11.60		(0.01)		(0.1)	%

* Represents the number of active accounts as of June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

See “Segment Results” for additional information and discussion regarding key metrics performance by segment. The definitions of our key metrics are as follows:

Gross Dollar Volume — represents the total dollar volume of funds loaded to our account products from direct deposit and non-direct deposit sources. A substantial portion of our gross dollar volume is generated from direct deposit sources. We use this metric to analyze the total amount of money moving onto our account programs, and to determine the overall engagement and usage patterns of our account holder base. This metric also serves as a leading indicator of revenue generated through our Consumer Services and B2B Services segments, inclusive of fees charged to account holders and interchange revenues generated through the spending of account balances.

Number of Active Accounts — represents any bank account within our Consumer Services and B2B Services segments that is subject to United States Patriot Act compliance and, therefore, requires customer identity verification prior to use and is intended to accept ongoing customer cash or ACH deposits. This metric includes checking accounts, general purpose reloadable prepaid card accounts, and secured credit card accounts in our portfolio that had at least one purchase, deposit or ATM withdrawal transaction during the applicable quarter. We use this metric to analyze the overall size of our active customer base and to analyze multiple metrics expressed as an average across this active account base.

Beginning with the first quarter of 2021, we have provided certain key metrics at the realigned segment level and have revised our direct deposit active account metric. Following these changes, the direct deposit active accounts metric only consists of accounts in our Consumer Services segment and no longer include direct deposit active accounts in our B2B Services segment. Based on the economic structure of our partnerships within our B2B services segment, we believe that total active accounts is the most relevant key metric for the B2B Services segment. We also narrowed the definition of "direct deposit active account" to include only active accounts that have received one or more payroll or government benefit transaction during the period. Prior period metrics have been restated to conform to our current definition. Our direct deposit active accounts within our Consumer Services segment, on average, have the longest tenure and generate the majority of our gross dollar volume in any period and thus, generate more revenue over their lifetime than other active accounts.

Purchase Volume — represents the total dollar volume of purchase transactions made by our account holders. This metric excludes the dollar volume of ATM withdrawals and volume generated by certain BaaS programs where the BaaS partner receives interchange and we earn a platform fee. We use this metric to analyze interchange revenue, which is a key component of our financial performance.

Number of Cash Transfers — represents the total number of cash transfer transactions conducted by consumers, such as a point-of-sale swipe reload transaction, the purchase of a MoneyPak or an e-cash mobile remittance transaction marketed under various brand names, that we conducted through our retail distributors in a specified period. This metric excludes disbursements made through our Simply Paid wage disbursement platform. We review this metric as a measure of the size and scale of our retail cash processing network, as an indicator of customer engagement and usage of our products and services, and to analyze cash transfer revenue, which is a key component of our financial performance.

Number of Tax Refunds Processed — represents the total number of tax refunds processed in a specified period. Due to seasonality, the number of tax refunds processed is most concentrated during the first half of each year and is minimal during the second half of each year. We review this metric as a measure of the size and scale

28

of our tax refund processing platform and as an indicator of customer engagement and usage of its products and services.

Key components of our results of operations

Operating Revenues

We classify our operating revenues into the following four categories:

Card Revenues and Other Fees — Card revenues consist of monthly maintenance fees, ATM fees, new card fees and other revenues. We charge maintenance fees on GPR cards, checking accounts and certain cash transfer products, such as MoneyPak, pursuant to the terms and conditions in our customer agreements. We charge ATM fees to cardholders when they withdraw money at certain ATMs in accordance with the terms and conditions in our cardholder agreements. We charge new card fees, if applicable, when a consumer purchases a GPR card, gift card, or a checking account product. Other revenues consist primarily of revenue associated with our gift card program, annual fees associated with our secured credit card portfolio, transaction-based fees, fees associated with optional products or services, such as our overdraft protection program, and cash-back rewards we offer to cardholders. Our cash-back rewards are recorded as a reduction to card revenues and other fees. Also included in card revenues and other fees are program management fees earned from our BaaS partners for programs we manage on their behalf.

Our aggregate monthly maintenance fee revenues vary primarily based upon the number of active accounts in our portfolio and the average fee assessed per account. Our average monthly maintenance fee per active account depends upon the mix of products in our portfolio at any given point in time and upon the extent to which fees are waived based on various incentives provided to customers in an effort to encourage higher usage and retention. Our aggregate ATM fee revenues vary based upon the number of cardholder ATM transactions and the average fee per ATM transaction. The average fee per ATM transaction depends upon the mix of products in our portfolio at any given point in time and the extent to which cardholders use ATMs within our free network that carry no fee for cash withdrawal transactions. Our aggregate new card fee revenues vary based upon the number of GPR cards and checking accounts activated and the average new card fee. The average new card fee depends primarily upon the mix of products that we sell since there are variations in new account fees based on the product and/or the location or source where our products are purchased. The revenue we earn from each of these fees may also vary depending upon the channel in which the active accounts were acquired. For example, certain BaaS programs may not assess monthly maintenance fees and as a result, these accounts may generate lower fee revenue than other active accounts. Our aggregate other fees vary primarily based upon account sales of all types, gift card sales, purchase transactions and the number of active accounts in our portfolio.

Cash Processing Revenues — Cash processing revenues (which we have previously referred to as processing and settlement services revenues) consist of cash transfer revenues, tax refund processing service revenues, Simply Paid disbursement revenues and other tax processing service revenues. We earn cash transfer revenues when consumers fund their cards through a reload transaction at a Green Dot Network retail location. Our aggregate cash transfer revenues vary based upon the mix of locations where reload transactions occur, since reload fees vary by location. We earn tax refund processing service revenues at the point in time when a customer of a third-party tax preparation company chooses to pay his or her tax preparation fee through the use of our tax refund processing services. We earn Simply Paid disbursement fees from our business partners at the point in time payment disbursements are made.

Interchange Revenues — We earn interchange revenues from fees remitted by the merchant’s bank, which are based on rates established by the payment networks, at the point in time when customers make purchase transactions using our products. Our aggregate interchange revenues vary based primarily on the number of active accounts in our portfolio, the average transactional volume of the active accounts in our portfolio and on the mix of cardholder purchases between those using signature identification technologies and those using personal identification numbers and the corresponding rates.

Interest Income, net — Net interest income represents the difference between the interest income earned on our interest-earning assets and the interest expense on our interest-bearing liabilities held at Green Dot Bank. Interest-earning assets include cash from customer deposits, loans, and investment securities. Our interest-bearing liabilities held at Green Dot Bank include interest-bearing deposits. Our net interest income and our net interest margin fluctuate based on changes in the federal funds interest rates and changes in the amount and composition of our interest-bearing assets and liabilities.

29

Operating Expenses

We classify our operating expenses into the following four categories:

Sales and Marketing Expenses — Sales and marketing expenses consist primarily of the commissions we pay to our retail distributors, brokers and platform partners, advertising and marketing expenses, and the costs of manufacturing and distributing card packages, placards and promotional materials to our retail distributors and personalized debit cards to consumers who have activated their cards. We generally establish commission percentages in long-term distribution agreements with our retail distributors and platform partners. Aggregate commissions with our retail distributors are determined by the number of account products and cash transfers sold at their respective retail stores. Commissions with our platform partners and, in certain cases, our retail distributors are determined by the revenue generated from the ongoing use of the associated card programs. We incur advertising and marketing expenses for television, sponsorships, online and in-store promotions. Advertising and marketing expenses are recognized as incurred and typically deliver a benefit over an extended period of time. For this reason, these expenses do not always track changes in our operating revenues. Our manufacturing and distribution costs vary primarily based on the number of accounts activated by consumers.

Compensation and Benefits Expenses — Compensation and benefits expenses represent the compensation and benefits that we provide to our employees and the payments we make to third-party contractors. While we have an in-house customer service function, we employ third-party contractors to conduct call center operations, handle routine customer service inquiries and provide consulting support in the area of IT operations and elsewhere. Compensation and benefits expenses associated with our customer service and loss management functions generally vary in line with the size of our active account portfolio, while the expenses associated with other functions do not.

Processing Expenses — Processing expenses consist primarily of the fees charged to us by the payment networks, which process transactions for us, the third-party card processors that maintain the records of our customers' accounts and process transaction authorizations and postings for us and the third-party banks that issue our accounts. These costs generally vary based on the total number of active accounts in our portfolio and gross dollar volume transacted by those accounts. Also included in processing expenses are bank fees associated with our tax refund processing services and gateway and network fees associated with our Simply Paid disbursement services. Bank fees generally vary based on the total number of tax refund transfers processed and gateway and network fees vary based on the numbers of disbursements made.

Other General and Administrative Expenses — Other general and administrative expenses consist primarily of professional service fees, telephone and communication costs, depreciation and amortization of our property and equipment and intangible assets, changes in contingent consideration, transaction losses (losses from customer disputed transactions, unrecovered customer purchase transaction overdrafts and fraud), rent and utilities, and insurance. We incur telephone and communication costs primarily from customers contacting us through our toll-free telephone numbers. These costs vary with the total number of active accounts in our portfolio, as do losses from customer disputed transactions, unrecovered customer purchase transaction overdrafts and fraud. Costs associated with professional services, depreciation and amortization of our property and equipment, amortization of our acquired intangible assets, rent and utilities vary based upon our investment in infrastructure, business development, risk management and internal controls and are generally not correlated with our operating revenues or other transaction metrics.

Income Tax Expense

Our income tax expense consists of the federal and state corporate income taxes accrued on income resulting from the sale of our products and services.

Critical Accounting Estimates

Comparison of Three-Month Periods Ended June 30, 2021 and 2020

Operating Revenues

The following table presents a breakdown of our operating revenues among card revenues and other fees, cash processing revenues, interchange revenues and net interest income:

	Three Months Ended June 30,
	2021				2020
	Amount		% of Total Operating Revenues		Amount		% of Total Operating Revenues
	(In thousands, except percentages)
Operating revenues:
Card revenues and other fees	$	197,937	53.6	%	$	152,681	48.3	%
Cash processing revenues	66,825		18.1		65,450		20.7
Interchange revenues	101,115		27.4		95,970		30.3
Interest income, net	3,496		0.9		2,139		0.7
Total operating revenues	$	369,373	100.0	%	$	316,240	100.0	%

Card Revenues and Other Fees — Card revenues and other fees totaled $197.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021, an increase of $45.2 million, or 29.6%, from the comparable prior year period. Our card revenues and other fees increased in part as a result of an increase in total gross dollar volume of 15%. The increase in total gross dollar volume resulted in an increase in BaaS program management service fee revenues earned from platform partners and to a lesser extent, an increase in monthly maintenance fee assessments. Card revenues and other fees also increased as a result of new optional features recently launched on our card programs, such as our overdraft protection program, as well as a favorable decrease in the estimated accrual of cash back rewards, which we record as a reduction to revenue. Our estimate of cash rewards varies based on multiple factors including the terms and conditions of the cash back program currently in effect, customer activity and customer redemption rates.

Cash Processing Revenues — Cash processing revenues totaled $66.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021, an increase of $1.3 million, or 2%, from the comparable prior year period. The increase is primarily due to timing shifts in the number of tax refunds processed for the comparable periods. Tax refunds processed for the 2021 tax season shifted from the first quarter of 2021 to the second quarter of 2021 as a result of the extension of the tax filing deadlines to the latter half of the second quarter of the year, while a number of tax refunds processed during the prior year 2020 tax season shifted into the third quarter of 2020 also due to extended filing deadlines.The revenue impact from the shift in refund transfer volumes to the second quarter of 2021 was partially offset by lower unit economics earned on tax refund transfers from one of our largest customers as a result of our multi-year agreement. The net increase from our tax processing revenues was offset by a decrease in the number of cash transfers processed year-over-year, in part due to our decision not to renew a reload network agreement with a partner in the fourth quarter of 2020.

Interchange Revenues — Interchange revenues totaled $101.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021, an increase of $5.1 million, or 5%, from the comparable prior year period. The increase was primarily due to an increase in the amount of purchase volume during the three months ended June 30, 2021 compared to the prior year period, which is primarily attributed to the economic stimulus funds and unemployment benefits provided by the federal government.

Interest Income, net — Net interest income totaled $3.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021, an increase of $1.4 million, or 67%, from the comparable prior year period. The increase in net interest income earned was the result of an increase in the size of our investment securities portfolio and customer funds on deposit, which is also primarily attributed to the economic stimulus funds and unemployment benefits provided by the federal government.

Operating Expenses

The following table presents a breakdown of our operating expenses among sales and marketing, compensation and benefits, processing, and other general and administrative expenses:

	Three Months Ended June 30,
	2021				2020
	Amount		% of Total Operating Revenues		Amount		% of Total Operating Revenues
	(In thousands, except percentages)
Operating expenses:
Sales and marketing expenses	$	96,507	26.1	%	$	106,811	33.8	%
Compensation and benefits expenses	59,984		16.2		58,867		18.6
Processing expenses	94,316		25.5		71,371		22.6
Other general and administrative expenses	86,763		23.5		73,801		23.3
Total operating expenses	$	337,570	91.3	%	$	310,850	98.3	%

Sales and Marketing Expenses — Sales and marketing expenses totaled $96.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021, a decrease of $10.3 million, or 10% from the comparable prior year period. This decrease was primarily driven by a decrease in sales commissions due to lower revenues generated from certain products that are subject to revenue-sharing agreements, partially offset by higher marketing and supply chain expenses in connection with the launch of GO2bank in January 2021.

Compensation and Benefits Expenses — Compensation and benefits expenses totaled $60.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021, an increase of $1.1 million or 2% from the comparable prior year period. The increase was primarily driven by higher third-party call center support costs to meet increased demand in our customer service center as a result of the federal relief programs described above, partially offset by a decrease in stock-based compensation expense of approximately $5.2 million driven primarily by the timing of forfeited awards during the period and lower salaries and wages, principally attributable to reduced employee headcount for the comparable periods.

Processing Expenses — Processing expenses totaled $94.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021, an increase of $22.9 million or 32% from the comparable prior year period. This increase was principally due to growth in BaaS account programs within our B2B Services segment and overall volume of transactions processed through our consolidated platform.

Other General and Administrative Expenses — Other general and administrative expenses totaled $86.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021, an increase of $13.0 million or 18%, from the comparable prior year period. This increase was primarily due to a year-over-year growth in transaction losses as a result of the increase in purchase volume and the introduction of our overdraft protection services, as well as higher software license expenses for the reasons discussed above, partially offset by lower professional fees and rent expenses as a result of our office closures in the U.S.

Income Taxes

The following table presents a breakdown of our effective tax rate among federal, state, and other:

	Three Months Ended June 30,
	2021		2020
U.S. federal statutory tax rate	21.0	%	21.0	%
State income taxes, net of federal tax benefit	1.5		3.0
General business credits	(1.7)		(6.6)
Employee stock-based compensation	0.3		(0.5)
IRC 162(m) limitation	4.5		40.2
Nondeductible expenses	(0.2)		1.1
Capital loss valuation allowance release	—		(4.4)
Other	(0.1)		(0.2)
Effective tax rate	25.3	%	53.6	%

Our income tax expense totaled $8.5 million, an increase of $4.6 million or 122% from the prior year comparable period, primarily due to an increase in operating income. The decrease in the effective tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2021 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2020 is primarily due to an

32

increase in our pre-tax income and the corresponding rate impact on items such as state income taxes, general business credits, employee stock-based compensation, and the IRC 162(m) limitation on the deductibility of executive compensation.

The "Other" category in our effective tax rate consists of a variety of permanent differences, none of which were individually significant.

Comparison of Six-Month Periods Ended June 30, 2021 and 2020

Operating Revenues

The following table presents a breakdown of our operating revenues among card revenues and other fees, cash processing revenues, interchange revenues and net interest income:

	Six Months Ended June 30,
	2021				2020
	Amount		% of Total Operating Revenues		Amount		% of Total Operating Revenues
	(In thousands, except percentages)
Operating revenues:
Card revenues and other fees	$	383,949	50.3	%	$	294,075	43.3	%
Cash processing revenues	157,740		20.7		188,516		27.8
Interchange revenues	212,341		27.8		186,836		27.6
Interest income, net	8,829		1.2		8,982		1.3
Total operating revenues	$	762,859	100.0	%	$	678,409	100.0	%

Card Revenues and Other Fees — Card revenues and other fees totaled $383.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021, an increase of $89.8 million, or 31%, from the comparable prior year period. This increase was driven by the same factors discussed above under “Comparison of Three-Month Periods Ended June 30, 2021 and 2020—Operating Revenues—Card Revenues and Other Fees."

Cash Processing Revenues — Cash processing revenues totaled $157.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021, a decrease of $30.8 million, or 16%, from the comparable prior year period. This decrease was driven by the same factors discussed above under “Comparison of Three-Month Periods Ended June 30, 2021 and 2020—Operating Revenues—Cash Processing Revenues," as well as a decline in the number of Simply Paid disbursement transactions due to the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on the rideshare industry.

Interchange Revenues — Interchange revenues totaled $212.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021, an increase of $25.5 million, or 14%, from the comparable prior year period. The increase was primarily due to an increase in the amount of purchase volume during the six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to the prior year period, which is primarily attributed to the economic stimulus funds and unemployment benefits provided by the federal government, partially offset by a decline in the interchange rate earned as a result of an increase in the average dollar amount purchased per transaction.

Interest Income, net — Net interest income totaled $8.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021, a decrease of $0.2 million, or 2%, from the comparable prior year period. The decrease was principally the result of lower yields on our investment securities portfolio and customer funds on deposit as a result of rate decreases by the Federal Reserve in March 2020, partially offset by an increase in the size of our investment securities portfolio and customer funds on deposit.

Sales and Marketing Expenses — Sales and marketing expenses totaled $215.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021, a decrease of $8.1 million, or 4% from the comparable prior year period. This decrease was driven by the same factors as discussed above under “Comparison of Three-Month Periods Ended June 30, 2021 and 2020—Operating Expenses—Sales and Marketing Expenses."

Compensation and Benefits Expenses — Compensation and benefits expenses totaled $135.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021, an increase of $23.1 million or 21% from the comparable prior year period. The increase was primarily due to higher third-party call center support costs to meet increased demand in our customer service center as a result of the federal relief programs described above, and higher salaries and wages, principally attributable to the timing of accrued bonus compensation.

Processing Expenses — Processing expenses totaled $192.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021, an increase of $49.5 million or 35% from the comparable prior year period. This increase was driven by the same factors as discussed above under “Comparison of Three-Month Periods Ended June 30, 2021 and 2020-—Operating Expenses—Processing Expenses."

Other General and Administrative Expenses — Other general and administrative expenses totaled $154.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021, an increase of $18.5 million or 14%, from the comparable prior year period. This increase was driven primarily by the same factors as discussed above under “Comparison of Three-Month Periods Ended June 30, 2021 and 2020—Operating Expenses—Other General and Administrative Expenses."

Income Taxes

The following table presents a breakdown of our effective tax rate among federal, state, and other:

	Six Months Ended June 30,
	2021		2020
U.S. federal statutory tax rate	21.0	%	21.0	%
State income taxes, net of federal tax benefit	1.1		(0.6)
General business credits	(1.9)		(6.6)
Employee stock-based compensation	(2.9)		1.8
IRC 162(m) limitation	6.4		8.1
Nondeductible expenses	0.1		0.7
Other	(0.3)		(0.5)
Effective tax rate	23.5	%	23.9	%

Our income tax expense totaled $15.6 million, a decrease of $0.2 million or 1% from the prior year comparable period resulting primarily due to a decrease of $1.1 million on the IRC 162(m) limitation on the deductibility of executive compensation and an increase of $3.1 million in excess tax benefits from stock-based compensation. We recognized an excess tax benefit on stock-based compensation of $1.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021, compared to a $1.2 million discrete tax expense on shortfalls from stock based compensation for the prior year comparable period.

The "Other" category in our effective tax rate consists of a variety of permanent differences, none of which were individually significant.

* Represents number of active and direct deposit active accounts as of June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

Segment revenues within Consumer Services for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 increased $19.5 million, or 12%, and $50.9 million, or 16%, respectively, compared to the prior year comparable periods, while our segment expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 increased $22.1 million, or 21%, and $50.4 million, or 24%, respectively.

Our gross dollar volume decreased 6% during the three months ended June 30, 2021, from the comparable prior year period and the total number of active accounts decreased by 3% as of June 30, 2021 year-over-year, largely due to the timing of stimulus funds. In the second quarter of 2020, new and existing users utilized our platform to receive funds from the initial economic stimulus package. Our cardholders benefited from the second and third economic stimulus packages primarily in the first quarter of 2021. As a result of these timing differences, gross dollar volume and the number of active accounts declined year-over-year in the second quarter of 2021. However, we generated revenue growth within this segment from interchange revenue earned on higher purchase volume of 5%, largely attributable to stimulus funds received in the first quarter of 2021 being spent in the second quarter of 2021, and the fees associated with the introduction of our new overdraft protection program, which is an optional service to our cardholders. Consumer Services revenues also benefited from a favorable decrease in the estimated accrual of cash back rewards, which we recorded as a reduction to revenue, attributable to changes in consumer behavioral trends and estimated redemption amounts.

For the six months ended June 30, 2021, our revenue growth year-over-year was the result of increases in our gross dollar volume and purchase volume. Total gross dollar volume on these deposit account programs increased 13% during the six months ended June 30, 2021, from the comparable prior year period due to organic growth as the demand for digital payments continues and from customers that have utilized our platform to receive stimulus funds and unemployment benefits enacted by the federal government this past year. The increase in gross dollar volume has resulted in an increase in monthly maintenance fee assessments and ATM fees we earn on these portfolios. Purchase volume increased by 16% during the six months ended June 30, 2021, from the comparable prior year period, resulting in an increase in the amount of interchange we earn.

Consumer Services expenses increased for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, from the comparable prior year period principally due to increased staffing of third-party call center support to meet the increased demand in our customer service center as a result of the federal relief programs, marketing expenses to promote our recently launched GO2bank product, and growth in transaction losses as a result of the year-over-year increases in purchase volume and the introduction of our overdraft protection services.

Segment revenues within our B2B Services for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 increased $36.0 million, or 47%, and $68.1 million, or 45%, respectively, compared to the prior year comparable periods, while our segment expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 increased $34.1 million, or 57%, and $68.6 million, or 60%, respectively.

Our total gross dollar volume increased 43% and 50% during the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, from the comparable prior year periods, despite the number of active accounts decreasing by 4% year-over-year as of June 30, 2021 for the reasons noted in our Consumer Services segment above. Although impacted by the timing of stimulus payments as discussed above, we also continue to experience organic growth in certain BaaS programs as the demand for digital payments continues. Purchase volume also increased approximately 3% and 13% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 from the comparable prior year periods.

The increase in gross dollar volume and purchase volume drove an increase in our BaaS program management service fee revenues earned from our platform partners and increases in interchange revenue and monthly maintenance fee assessments, partially offset by lower Simply Paid disbursement revenues due to the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on the rideshare industry.

Despite year-over-year revenue growth for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, our segment profit has been impacted by the increased staffing of third-party call center support to meet the increased demand in our customer service center and growth in disputed transaction losses for the same reasons discussed above. This segment also experienced margin compression because some of our BaaS partnerships were structured based on a flat profit and therefore, our segment profit for these arrangements has not scaled with revenue growth. BaaS is our newest channel of business and we remain focused on investing in it and exploring new partnership agreements moving forward.

Tax processing revenues increased during the three months ended June 30, 2021, primarily due to timing shifts in the number of tax refunds processed for the comparable periods. Tax refunds processed for the 2021 tax season shifted from the first quarter of 2021 to the second quarter of 2021 as a result of the extension of the tax filing deadlines to the latter half of the second quarter of the year, while a number of tax refunds processed during the prior year 2020 tax season shifted into the third quarter of 2020 also due to extended filing deadlines. The revenue impact from the shift in refund transfer volumes to the second quarter of 2021 was partially offset by lower unit economics earned from refund transfers with one of our largest customers, which was agreed upon in exchange for securing a multi-year arrangement. The net increase in our tax processing revenues during the second quarter of 2021 was offset by a decline in the number of cash transfers processed, in part due to our decision not to renew a reload partner agreement in the fourth quarter of 2020. The net increase in our tax processing revenues during the second quarter of 2021 was offset by a decline in the number of cash transfers processed, in part due to our decision not to renew a reload partner agreement in the fourth quarter of 2020. The non-renewal of this agreement will continue to impact the number of cash transfers and, to a lesser extent, profitability within the segment for the remainder of the year, but any year-over-year growth or decline in cash transfers in 2021 will be dependent on multiple factors, including the level of growth of deposit account programs in our Consumer Services and B2B Services segments.

The decrease in revenues and expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2021 from the comparable prior year period is attributable to the same reasons discussed above.

Revenues within Corporate and Other are comprised of net interest income earned by our bank and inter-segment eliminations. Unallocated corporate expenses include our fixed expenses such as salaries, wages and related benefits for our employees, professional service fees, software licenses, telephone and communication costs, rent and utilities, insurance and inter-segment eliminations. These costs are not considered when our CODM evaluates the performance of our three reportable segments since they are not directly attributable to any reporting segment. Non-cash expenses such as stock-based compensation, depreciation and amortization of long-lived assets, and other non-recurring expenses that are not considered by our CODM when evaluating our overall consolidated financial results are excluded from our unallocated corporate expenses above. Refer to Note 19— Segment Information to the Consolidated Financial Statements included herein for a summary reconciliation.

Net interest income increased slightly year-over-year for the three months ended June 30, 2021 as a result of an increase in the size of our investment securities portfolio and customer funds on deposit. However, total net interest income in the first half of the year has remained flat to prior year comparable period as a result of lower yields on our investment securities portfolio due to the rate decreases by the Federal Reserve in March 2020.

Unallocated corporate expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 decreased year-over-year by approximately 11% and 5%, respectively, as a result of lower corporate reserves, professional expenses and rent expense. These decreases were partially offset by higher salaries and wages and related employee benefits, principally due to the timing of accrued bonus compensation, and higher software licenses and telecommunication expenses.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The following table summarizes our major sources and uses of cash for the periods presented:

	Six Months Ended June 30,
	2021		2020
	(In thousands)
Total cash provided by (used in)
Operating activities	$	119,456	$	161,516
Investing activities	(265,700)		(24,732)
Financing activities	544,849		734,473
Increase in unrestricted cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash	$	398,605	$	871,257

For the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, we financed our operations primarily through our cash flows generated from operations and customer funds held on deposit. From time to time, we may also finance short term working capital activities through our borrowings under our credit facility. As of June 30, 2021, our primary source of liquidity was unrestricted cash and cash equivalents totaling $1.9 billion. We also consider our $1.1 billion of available-for-sale investment securities to be highly-liquid instruments.

We use trend and variance analysis as well as our detailed budgets and forecasts to project future cash needs, making adjustments to the projections when needed. We believe that our current unrestricted cash and cash equivalents, cash flows from operations and borrowing capacity under our credit facility will be sufficient to meet our working capital, capital expenditures, equity method investee capital commitments, and any other capital needs for at least the next 12 months. We are currently not aware of any other trends or demands, commitments, events or uncertainties that will result in or that are reasonably likely to result in our liquidity increasing or decreasing in any material way that will impact our capital needs during or beyond the next 12 months. We continue to monitor the impact of COVID-19 on our business to ensure our liquidity and capital resources remain appropriate throughout this period of uncertainty.

Cash Flows from Operating Activities

Our $119.5 million of net cash provided by operating activities during the six months ended June 30, 2021 was the result of $50.7 million of net income, adjusted for certain non-cash operating items of $88.1 million and decreases in net changes in our working capital assets and liabilities of $19.3 million. Our $161.5 million of net cash provided by operating activities during the six months ended June 30, 2020 was the result of $50.1 million of net income, adjusted for certain non-cash operating items of $71.0 million and increases in net changes in our working capital assets and liabilities of $40.3 million.

Cash Flows from Investing Activities

Our $265.7 million of net cash used in investing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2021 was primarily due to purchases of available-for-sale investment securities, net of proceeds from sales and maturities, of $139.8 million, the purchase of bank-owned life insurance policies of $50.0 million, capital contributions related to our investment in TailFin Labs, LLC of $35.0 million, and the acquisition of property and equipment of $23.8 million. Our $24.7 million of net cash used in investing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2020 was primarily due to the acquisition of property and equipment of $31.4 million, and capital contributions related to our investment in TailFin Labs, LLC of $35.0 million, partially offset by proceeds from the sale and maturities of available-for-sale investment securities, net of purchases, of $40.9 million.

Cash Flows from Financing Activities

Our $0.5 billion of net cash provided from financing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2021 was principally the result of a net increase in customer deposits of $125.5 million and a net increase of $425.8 million in obligations to customers. Total customer deposit balances have increased year-over-year, principally as a result of additional economic stimulus funds and other government benefits received by our cardholders. Our $734.5 million of net cash provided from financing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2020 was principally the result of a net increase in customer deposits of $826.2 million, offset by a net decrease of $56.6 million in obligations to customers and net repayments on our revolving credit facility of $35.0 million.

Other Sources of Liquidity: 2019 Revolving Facility

In October 2019, we entered into a revolving credit agreement with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, and other lenders party thereto. The credit agreement provides for a $100 million five-year revolving facility and matures in October 2024. At our election, loans made under the credit agreement bear interest at 1) a LIBOR rate (the

38

“LIBOR Rate") or 2) a base rate determined by reference to the highest of (a) the United States federal funds rate plus 0.50%, (b) the Wells Fargo prime rate, and (c) one-month LIBOR rate plus 1.0% (the “Base Rate"), plus in either case an applicable margin. The applicable margin for borrowings depends on our total leverage ratio and varies from 1.25% to 2.00% for LIBOR Rate loans and 0.25% to 1.00% for Base Rate loans.

We are also subject to certain financial covenants, which include maintaining a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio and a maximum consolidated leverage ratio at the end of each fiscal quarter, as defined in the agreement. At June 30, 2021, we were in compliance with all such covenants.

Material Cash Requirements

While the effect of COVID-19 has created economic uncertainty and impacted how we manage our liquidity and capital resources, we anticipate that we will continue to develop and purchase property and equipment as necessary in the normal course of our business. The amount and timing of these payments and the related cash outflows in future periods is difficult to predict and is dependent on a number of factors including the hiring of new employees, the rate of change of computer hardware and software used in our business and our business outlook as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. We intend to continue to invest in new products and programs we believe are critical, including GO2bank, new features for our existing products and IT infrastructure to scale and operate effectively to meet our strategic objectives. However, we do not expect these capital expenditures will exceed the amount of our capital expenditures in 2020. We expect to fund these capital expenditures primarily through our cash flows provided by operating activities.

We have used cash to acquire businesses and technologies, including most recently, our commitment to purchase Tax Refund Solutions, a business segment of Republic Bank & Trust Company, for approximately $165 million in cash, and we anticipate that we may continue to do so in the future. The nature of these transactions, however, makes it difficult to predict the amount and timing of such cash requirements.

Additionally, we may make periodic cash contributions to our subsidiary bank, Green Dot Bank, to maintain its capital, leverage and other financial commitments at levels we have agreed to with our regulators.

Contractual Obligations

There have been no material changes in our contractual obligations disclosed in Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020.

Capital Requirements for Bank Holding Companies

Our subsidiary bank, Green Dot Bank, is a member bank of the Federal Reserve System and our primary regulators are the Federal Reserve Board and the Utah Department of Financial Institutions. We are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on our financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines, we must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of the assets, liabilities and certain off-balance sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings and other factors.

The Basel III rules, which were promulgated by the Federal Reserve and other U.S. banking regulators, provide for risk-based capital, leverage and liquidity standards. Under the Basel III rules, we must maintain a ratio of common equity Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets of at least 4.5%, a ratio of Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets of at least 6%, a ratio of total capital to risk-weighted assets of at least 8% and a minimum Tier 1 leverage ratio of 4.0%.

As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, we were categorized as "well capitalized" under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. To be categorized as "well capitalized," we must maintain specific total risk-based, Tier 1 risk-based and Tier 1 leverage ratios as set forth in the table below. There are no conditions or events since June 30, 2021 which management believes would have changed our category as "well capitalized."

The definitions associated with the amounts and ratios below are as follows:

Ratio	Definition
Tier 1 leverage ratio	Tier 1 capital divided by average total assets
Common equity Tier 1 capital ratio	Common equity Tier 1 capital divided by risk-weighted assets
Tier 1 capital ratio	Tier 1 capital divided by risk-weighted assets
Total risk-based capital ratio	Total capital divided by risk-weighted assets
Terms	Definition
Tier 1 capital and Common equity Tier 1 capital	Primarily includes common stock, retained earnings and accumulated OCI, net of deductions and adjustments primarily related to goodwill, deferred tax assets and intangibles.
Total capital	Tier 1 capital plus supplemental capital items such as the allowance for loan losses, subject to certain limits
Average total assets	Average total consolidated assets during the period less deductions and adjustments primarily related to goodwill, deferred tax assets and intangibles assets
Risk-weighted assets	Represents the amount of assets or exposure multiplied by the standardized risk weight (%) associated with that type of asset or exposure. The standardized risk weights are prescribed in the bank capital rules and reflect regulatory judgment regarding the riskiness of a type of asset or exposure

ITEM 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

Market risk is the potential for economic losses from changes in market factors such as foreign currency exchange rates, credit, interest rates and equity prices. We believe that we have limited exposure to risks associated with changes in foreign currency exchange rates, interest rates and equity prices. We have no significant foreign operations. We do not hold or enter into derivatives or other financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes.

Interest rates

While operating net interest income has become a more meaningful component to our consolidated operating results, we do not consider our cash and cash equivalents or our investment securities to be subject to material interest rate risk due to their short duration. However, the Federal Open Market Committee decreased the federal funds target rate in March 2020 to a range of 0%-0.25%. An extended duration of near zero short-term interest rates could adversely impact the amount of net interest income we earn in the future.

As of June 30, 2021, we had no balances outstanding under our $100.0 million line of credit agreement. Refer to Note 9 — Debt to the Consolidated Financial Statements included herein for additional information. Should we require additional liquidity from our line of credit, our borrowings are expected to be at variable rates of interest and would expose us to interest rate risk. Although any short-term borrowings under our revolving credit facility would likely be insensitive to interest rate changes, interest expense on short-term borrowings will increase and decrease with changes in the underlying short-term interest rates. For example, assuming our revolving facility is drawn up to its maximum borrowing capacity of $100.0 million, based on the applicable LIBOR and margin in effect as of June 30, 2021, each quarter point of change in interest rates would result in a $0.3 million change in our annual interest expense.

We actively monitor our interest rate exposure and our objective is to reduce, where we deem appropriate to do so, fluctuations in earnings and cash flows associated with changes in interest rates. In order to accomplish this objective, we may enter into derivative financial instruments, such as forward contracts and interest rate hedge contracts to the extent necessary to manage our exposure. We do not hold or enter into derivatives or other financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes.

Credit and liquidity risk

We do have exposure to credit and liquidity risk associated with the financial institutions that hold our cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, available-for-sale investment securities, settlement assets due from our Simply Paid distribution partners and retail distributors that collect funds and fees from our customers and amounts due from our issuing banks for fees collected on our behalf.

We manage the credit and liquidity risk associated with our cash and cash equivalents, available-for-sale investment securities and amounts due from issuing banks by maintaining an investment policy that restricts our correspondent banking relationships to approved, well capitalized institutions and restricts investments to highly liquid, low credit risk assets. Our policy has limits related to liquidity ratios, the concentration that we may have with a single institution or issuer and effective maturity dates as well as restrictions on the type of assets that we may invest in. The management Asset Liability Committee is responsible for monitoring compliance with our Capital Asset Liability Management policy, and related limits on an ongoing basis and reports regularly to the risk committee of our Board of Directors.

Our exposure to credit risk associated with our retail distributors and Simply Paid distribution partners is mitigated due to the short time period, currently an average of two days, that retailer settlement assets are outstanding. We perform an initial credit review and assign a credit limit to each new retail distributor and Simply Paid distribution partner. We monitor each retail distributor’s and Simply Paid distribution partner's settlement asset exposure and its compliance with its specified contractual settlement terms on a daily basis and assess their credit limit and financial condition on a periodic basis. Our management's Enterprise Risk Management Committee is responsible for monitoring our retail distributor and Simply Paid distribution partner exposure and assigning credit limits, and reports regularly to the risk committee of our Board of Directors. We continue to monitor our exposure to credit risk with our retail distributors and other business partners in light of the COVID-19 pandemic.

ITEM 4. Controls and Procedures

Disclosure controls and procedures — Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Interim Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 13d-15(e)) at the end of the period covered by this report. Based on such evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures, our Chief Executive Officer and Interim Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, at the end of such period, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Interim Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Change in internal control over financial reporting — There was no material change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f)) during the three months ended June 30, 2021 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. We have not experienced any significant impact to our internal controls over financial reporting despite the fact that most of our employees continue to work remotely due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The design of our processes and controls allow for remote execution with accessibility to secure data. We are continually monitoring and assessing the COVID-19 situation to minimize the impact, if any, on the design and operating effectiveness on our internal controls.

Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls — Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Interim Chief Financial Officer, does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal controls will prevent all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within our company have been detected.

ITEM 1. Legal Proceedings

Refer to Note 17 — Commitments and Contingencies to the Consolidated Financial Statements included herein for information regarding our legal proceedings.

ITEM 1A. Risk Factors

COVID-19 RISKS

The COVID-19 pandemic has and may continue to significantly affect how we and our retail distributors are operating our businesses.

Our operations have and may continue to be negatively affected by a range of external factors related to the COVID-19 pandemic that are not within our control. As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, we have shifted to a fully remote workforce strategy for our employees in the U.S. and we are in the process of closing most of our leased office locations in the U.S., which has resulted in us recording impairment charges and could result in a less effective workforce. In addition, many of the third-party call centers we rely on to provide customer support were closed during portions of the first half of 2020 due to the pandemic, which resulted in delayed responses to customers and a higher usage of automated services, and contributed to higher transaction losses compared to prior periods. While such staffing issues have been resolved, it is possible that we may continue to experience similar issues in the future due to the pandemic. The business and operations of our retail distributors and our BaaS and other partners have likewise been disrupted, with many experiencing reduced foot traffic or usage of their services.

The duration and magnitude of the effects of COVID-19 remain uncertain and dependent on various factors, including the continued severity and transmission rate of the virus and new variants of the virus, the nature of and duration for which the preventative measures remain in place, the extent and effectiveness of containment and mitigation efforts, including vaccination programs, 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 our employees, customers, retail distributors, partners and vendors. In 2020, the conditions caused by the COVID-19 pandemic adversely affected our customers’ spending levels and ability or willingness to purchase our products and services through our retail distributors, lowered the volume of transactions of certain programs and delayed the launching of new products and services, although governmental actions such as the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (CARES Act) helped mitigate the effects of COVID-19 on our business in 2020, and in December 2020 and March 2021, two economic stimulus packages totaling $2.8 trillion were signed into law, providing for additional direct payments and enhanced unemployment benefits through September 2021.

As a result of the pandemic, we have experienced and may continue to experience increased costs, including higher call center costs and disputed transaction losses, which could continue to adversely affect our business, results of operations, and financial condition in future periods. Additionally, concerns over the economic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic have caused extreme volatility in financial and other capital markets, which may adversely affect our stock price and our ability to access capital markets in the future.

We have taken steps to strengthen our liquidity position and ensure we have ample flexibility to pursue strategic priorities. Should we require credit at levels we are unable to access, the cost of credit is greater than expected, or the cost-savings measures we have implemented are ineffective or result in us incurring greater costs, our operating results could be adversely affected. Further, additional borrowings on our revolving line of credit have and will cause us to incur additional interest expense, which will negatively affect our earnings.

Please see “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Position and Results of Operations” for more information regarding the potential impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business.

RISKS RELATED TO OUR BUSINESS

The loss of operating revenues from Walmart or any of our largest retail distributors would adversely affect our business.

A significant portion of our operating revenues are derived from the products and services sold at our four largest retail distributors. As a percentage of total operating revenues, operating revenues derived from products and services sold at the store locations of Walmart was approximately 23.0% and 24.0% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively. We expect that Walmart will continue to have a significant impact on our operating revenues in future periods, particularly in our Consumer Services segment. It would be difficult to replace Walmart and the operating revenues derived from products and services sold at their stores. Accordingly, the loss of Walmart or any significant decrease in customers’ spending levels and ability or willingness to purchase our account products through Walmart, for any reason, including due to the COVID-19 pandemic, would have a material adverse effect on our business and results of operations. In addition, any publicity associated with the loss of any of our large retail distributors could harm our reputation, making it more difficult to attract and retain consumers and other retail distributors, and could lessen our negotiating power with our remaining and prospective retail distributors.

The term of our Walmart Money Card agreement (which governs the MoneyCard program) expires on January 31, 2027, unless renewed under its automatic renewal provision, which provides for a one-year extension. Our contracts with our three other largest retail distributors have terms that are set to expire at various dates through 2022, with some subject to automatic renewal provisions. Our contracts with Walmart and our three other largest retail distributors can in limited circumstances, such as our material breach or insolvency or, in the case of Walmart, our failure to meet agreed-upon service levels, certain changes in control, and our inability or unwillingness to agree to requested pricing changes, be terminated by these retail distributors on relatively short notice. There can be no assurance that we will be able to continue our relationships with our largest retail distributors on the same or more favorable terms in future periods or that our relationships will continue beyond the terms of our existing contracts with them. Our operating revenues and results of operations could suffer if, among other things, any of our retail distributors renegotiates, terminates or fails to renew, or to renew on similar or favorable terms, its agreement with us or otherwise chooses to modify the level of support it provides for our products.

Our base of tax preparation partners is concentrated, and the performance of our Money Movement Services segment depends in part on our ability to retain existing partners.

If one or more of our major tax preparation partners were to substantially reduce or stop offering our services to their customers, our tax refund processing services business, a component of our Money Movement Services segment, results of operations and financial condition would be harmed. Substantially all the revenues we generate from our tax refund processing services business have come from sales through a relatively small number of tax preparation firms. We do not have long-term contractual commitments from most of our current tax preparation partners and our tax preparation partners may elect to not renew their contracts with us with little or no advance notice. As a result, we cannot be assured that any of our current tax preparation partners will continue to partner with us past the terms in their current agreements. A termination of our relationships with certain tax preparation partners that provide commercial tax preparation software would result in lost revenue and the loss of the ability to secure future relationships with new or existing tax preparation firms that use such tax software.

Our future success depends upon the active and effective promotion of our products and services by retail distributors and tax preparation partners.

Most of our operating revenues are derived from our products and services sold at the stores of our retail distributors. In addition, the revenues we generate from our tax refund processing services are largely derived from products and services sold through retail tax preparation businesses and income tax software providers. Revenues from our retail distributors and tax preparation partners depend on a number of factors outside our control and may vary from period to period. Because we compete with many other providers of products and services for placement and promotion of products in the stores of our retail distributors or in conjunction with the delivery of tax preparation services by our tax preparation providers, our success depends on the willingness of our retail distributors and tax preparation partners to promote our products and services successfully. In general, our contracts with these third parties allow them to exercise significant discretion over the placement and promotion of our products and services, and they could give higher priority to the products and services of other companies for a variety of reasons. Accordingly, losing the support of our retail distributors and tax preparation partners might limit or reduce the sales of our products and services. Our operating revenues and operating expenses may also be negatively affected by the operational decisions by our retail distributors and tax preparation partners. For example, if a retail distributor reduces shelf space for our products or implements changes in its systems that disrupt the integration between its systems and ours, our product sales could be reduced or decline and we may incur additional merchandising costs

45

to ensure our products are appropriately stocked. Similarly, for a variety of reasons, many of our tax preparation partners that provide commercial income tax preparation software offer their customers several types for tax refund processing services, including those of our competitors. Even if our retail distributors and tax preparation partners actively and effectively promote our products and services, there can be no assurance that their efforts will maintain or result in growth of our operating revenues.

We make significant investments in products and services that may not be successful.

Our prospects for growth depend on our ability to innovate by offering new, and adding value to our existing, product and service offerings and on our ability to effectively commercialize such innovations. For example, in January 2021, we launched GO2bank, a new mobile bank account aimed at serving the low-and moderate-income market. We will continue to make investments in research, development, and marketing for new products and services. If customers do not perceive our new offerings as providing significant value, they may fail to accept our new products and services, which would negatively impact our operating revenues. We may not achieve significant operating revenues from new product and service investments for a number of years, if at all. Moreover, new products and services may not be profitable, and even if they are profitable, operating margins for new products and services may not be as high as the margins we have experienced in the past.

Future revenue growth depends on our ability to retain and attract new long-term users of our products.

Our ability to increase account usage and account holder retention and to attract new long-term users of our products can have a significant impact on our operating revenues. We may be unable to generate increases in account usage, account holder retention or attract new long-term users of our products for a number of reasons, including if we are unable to maintain our existing distribution channels, predict accurately consumer preferences or industry changes and modify our products and services on a timely basis in response thereto, produce new features and services that appeal to existing and prospective customers, and influence account holder behavior through cardholder retention and usage incentives. Our results of operations could vary materially from period to period based on the degree to which we are successful in increasing usage and retention and attracting long-term users of our products.

Seasonal fluctuations in the use of our products and services impact our results of operations and cash flows.

Our results of operations and cash flows vary from quarter to quarter, and periodically decline, due to the seasonal nature of the use of our products and services. For example, our results of operations for the first half of each year have been favorably affected by large numbers of taxpayers electing to receive their tax refunds via direct deposit on our accounts, which caused our operating revenues to be typically higher in the first half of those years than they were in the corresponding second half of those years. Our tax refund processing services business is also highly seasonal as it generates the substantial majority of its revenue in the first quarter, and substantially all of its revenue in the first half of each calendar year. To the extent that seasonal fluctuations become more pronounced, or are not offset by other factors, our results of operations and cash flows from operating activities could fluctuate materially from period to period.

The industries in which we compete are highly competitive.

The industries in which we compete are highly competitive and subject to rapid and significant changes. We compete against companies and financial institutions across the retail banking, financial services, transaction processing, consumer technology and financial technology services industries and may compete with others in the market who may in the future provide offerings similar to ours, particularly vendors who provide program management and other services though a platform similar to our banking platform. These and other competitors in the banking and electronic payments industries are introducing innovative products and services that may compete with ours. We expect that this competition will continue as banking and electronic payments industries continue to evolve, particularly if non-traditional payments processors and other parties gain greater market share in these industries. If we are unable to differentiate our products and platform from and/or successfully compete with those of our competitors, our revenues, results of operations, prospects for future growth and overall business could be materially and adversely affected.

Many existing and potential competitors are entities substantially larger in size, more highly diversified in revenue and substantially more established with significantly more broadly known brand awareness than ours. As such, many of our competitors can leverage their size, robust networks, financial wherewithal, brand awareness, pricing power and technological assets to compete with us. Additionally, some of our current and potential competitors are subject to fewer regulations and restrictions than we are, and thus may be able to respond more quickly in the face of regulatory and technological changes.

46

We are also experiencing increased competition as a result of new entrants offering free or low-cost alternatives to our products and services. In recent years, “challenger” banks have gained market share through the marketing of their largely free bank account offerings. To the extent these new entrants continue to take market share at our expense, we expect that the purchase and use of our products and services would decline. In response to such challenger banks, we launched GO2bank, a new mobile bank account aimed at serving the low-and moderate-income market with tools that help address common financial challenges and opportunities to improve long-term financial health. If GO2bank is not successful or our competitive position deteriorates further, we may have to increase the incentives that we offer to our retail distributors and our tax preparation partners, or directly to consumers, and decrease the prices of our products and services, any of which would likely adversely affect our results of operations.

We may not keep pace with the rapid technological developments in our industry and the larger electronic payments industry.

The electronic payments industry is subject to rapid and significant technological changes. We cannot predict the effect of technological changes on our business. We rely in part on third parties for the development of, and access to, new technologies. We expect that new services and technologies applicable to our industry will continue to emerge, and these new services and technologies may be superior to, or render obsolete, the technologies we currently utilize in our products and services. Additionally, we may make future investments in, or enter into strategic alliances to develop, new technologies and services or to implement infrastructure change to further our strategic objectives, strengthen our existing businesses and remain competitive. However, our ability to transition to new services and technologies that we develop may be inhibited by a lack of industry-wide standards, by resistance from our retail distributors, BaaS partners, third-party processors or consumers to these changes, or by the intellectual property rights of third parties. These initiatives are inherently risky, and they may not be successful or may have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Fraudulent and other illegal activity involving our products and services could adversely affect our financial position and results of operations.

Criminals are using increasingly sophisticated methods to engage in illegal activities using deposit account products (including prepaid cards), reload products, or customer information. Illegal activities involving our products and services often include malicious social engineering schemes. Further, in connection with the COVID-19 pandemic, there has been and may continue to be a significant amount of transaction fraud with respect to prepaid cards used to deliver stimulus and unemployment benefits, which has negatively impacted many financial services companies.

Illegal activities may also include fraudulent payment or refund schemes and identity theft. We rely upon third parties for transaction processing services, which subjects us and our customers to risks related to the vulnerabilities of those third parties. A single significant incident of fraud, or increases in the overall level of fraud, involving our cards and other products and services, have in the past and could in the future, result in reputational damage to us. Such damage could reduce the use and acceptance of our cards and other products and services, cause retail distributors to cease doing business with us, or lead to greater regulation that would increase our compliance costs. Fraudulent activity could also result in the imposition of regulatory sanctions, including significant monetary fines, which could adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.

To address the challenges that we face with respect to fraudulent activity, we have implemented risk control mechanisms that have made it more difficult for all customers, including legitimate customers, to obtain and use our products and services. We believe it is likely that our risk control mechanisms may continue to adversely affect our new card activations for the foreseeable future and that our operating revenues will be negatively impacted as a result. Further, implementing such risk control mechanisms can be costly and has and may continue to negatively impact our operating margins.

We are exposed to losses from customer accounts.

Fraudulent activity involving our products may lead to customer disputed transactions, for which we may be liable under banking regulations and payment network rules. Our fraud detection and risk control mechanisms may not prevent all fraudulent or illegal activity. To the extent we incur losses from disputed transactions, our business, results of operations and financial condition could be materially and adversely affected. Additionally, our cardholders can incur charges in excess of the funds available in their accounts, and we may become liable for these overdrafts. While we decline authorization attempts for amounts that exceed the available balance in a cardholder’s account, the application of card association rules, the timing of the settlement of transactions and the assessment of the card’s monthly maintenance fee, among other things, can result in overdrawn accounts.

47

Maintenance fee assessment overdrafts occur as a result of our charging a cardholder, pursuant to the card’s terms and conditions, the monthly maintenance fee at a time when he or she does not have sufficient funds in his or her account. Our remaining overdraft exposure arises primarily from late-posting. A late-post occurs when a merchant posts a transaction within a payment network-permitted time frame, but subsequent to our release of the authorization for that transaction, as permitted by card association rules. Under card association rules, we may be liable for the transaction amount even if the cardholder has made additional purchases in the intervening period and funds are no longer available on the card at the time the transaction is posted.

We consider overdrawn account balances to be our receivables due from cardholders. We maintain reserves to cover the risk that we may not recover these receivables due from our cardholders, but our exposure may increase above these reserves for a variety of reasons, including our failure to predict the actual recovery rate accurately. To the extent we incur losses from overdrafts above our reserves or we determine that it is necessary to increase our reserves substantially, our business, results of operations and financial condition could be materially and adversely affected.

We face settlement risks from our distributors and banking partners, which may increase during an economic recession.

Most of our business is conducted through retail distributors that sell our products and services to consumers at their store locations. Our retail distributors collect funds from the consumers who purchase our products and services and then must remit these funds directly to accounts established for the benefit of these consumers at the banks that issue our cards. The remittance of these funds by the retail distributor takes on average two business days. If a retail distributor becomes insolvent, files for bankruptcy, commits fraud or otherwise fails to remit proceeds to our card issuing bank from the sales of our products and services, we are liable for any amounts owed to our customers. As of June 30, 2021, we had assets subject to settlement risk of $384.2 million. Given the possibility of recurring volatility in global financial markets, the approaches we use to assess and monitor the creditworthiness of our retail distributors may be inadequate, and we may be unable to detect and take steps to mitigate an increased credit risk in a timely manner. Economic recessions, such as the current recession due to the COVID-19 pandemic, could result in settlement losses, whether or not directly related to our business. We are not insured against these risks. Significant settlement losses could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Economic, political and other conditions may adversely affect trends in consumer spending.

The electronic payments industry, including the prepaid financial services segment within that industry, depends heavily upon the overall level of consumer spending. According to the National Bureau of Economic Research the United States has been in an economic recession since June 2020. A prolonged recession may result in us experiencing a reduction in the number of our accounts that are purchased or reloaded, the number of transactions involving our cards and the use of our reload network and related services. A sustained reduction in the use of our products and related services, either as a result of a general reduction in consumer spending or as a result of a disproportionate reduction in the use of card-based payment systems, would materially harm our business, results of operations and financial condition.

We must be able to operate and scale our technology effectively.

Our ability to continue to provide our products and services to network participants, as well as to enhance our existing products and services and offer new products and services, is dependent on our information technology systems. If we are unable to manage and scale the technology associated with our business effectively, we could experience increased costs, reductions in system availability and losses of our network participants. Any failure of our systems in scalability and functionality would adversely impact our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Our business could suffer if there is a decline in the use of prepaid cards as a payment mechanism or there are adverse developments with respect to the prepaid financial services industry in general.

As the prepaid financial services industry evolves, consumers may find prepaid financial services to be less attractive than traditional or other financial services. Consumers might not use prepaid financial services for any number of reasons, including the general perception of our industry, new technologies, a decrease in our distribution partners’ willingness to sell these products as a result of a more challenging regulatory environment or other factors outside of our control such as the current economic recession due to the COVID-19 pandemic. If consumers do not continue or increase their usage of prepaid cards, including making changes in the way prepaid cards are loaded, our operating revenues may decline. Any projected growth for the industry may not occur or may occur more slowly than estimated. If consumer acceptance of prepaid financial services does not continue to develop or develops

48

more slowly than expected or if there is a shift in the mix of payment forms, such as cash, credit cards, traditional debit cards and prepaid cards, away from our products and services, it could have a material adverse effect on our financial position and results of operations.

RISKS RELATED TO OUR OPERATIONS

Our business is dependent on the efficient and uninterrupted operation of computer network systems and data centers, including third party systems.

Our ability to provide reliable service to customers and other network participants depends on the efficient and uninterrupted operation of our computer network systems and data centers as well as those of our retail distributors, network acceptance members and third-party processors. Our business involves the movement of large sums of money, the processing of large numbers of transactions and the management of the data necessary to do both. Our success in our account programs, including our BaaS programs, as well as our money movement services, depends upon the efficient and error-free handling of the money that is collected, remitted or deposited in connection with the provision of our products and services. We rely on the ability of our employees, systems and processes and those of the banks that issue our cards, our retail distributors, tax refund preparation partners, other business partners and third-party processors to process and facilitate these transactions in an efficient, uninterrupted and error-free manner. Their failure to do so could materially and adversely impact our operating revenues and results of operations, particularly during the tax season, when we derive substantially all of our operating revenues for our tax refund processing services and a significant portion of our other operating revenues.

Our systems and the systems of third-party processors are susceptible to outages and interruptions due to fire, natural disaster, power loss, telecommunications failures, software or hardware defects, terrorist attacks, pandemics such as the COVID-19 pandemic and similar events. We use both internally developed and third-party systems, including cloud computing and storage systems, for our services and certain aspects of transaction processing. Interruptions in our service may result for a number of reasons. For example, the data center hosting facilities that we use could be closed without adequate notice or suffer unanticipated problems resulting in lengthy interruptions in our service. Moreover, as we continue to add data centers and add capacity in our existing data centers, we could experience problems transferring customer accounts and data, impairing the delivery of our service.

Any damage to, or failure of, or delay in our processes or systems generally, or those of our vendors (including as a result of disruptions at our third-party data center hosting facilities and cloud providers), or an improper action by our employees, agents or third-party vendors, could result in interruptions in our service, causing customers, retail distributors and other partners to become dissatisfied with our products and services or obligate us to issue credits or pay fines or other penalties to them. Sustained or repeated process or system failures could reduce the attractiveness of our products and services, including our banking platform, and result in contract terminations, thereby reducing operating revenue and harming our results of operations. Further, negative publicity arising from these types of disruptions could be damaging to our reputation and may adversely impact use of our products and services, including our banking platform, and adversely affect our ability to attract new customers and business partners. Additionally, some of our contracts with retail distributors, including our contract with Walmart, contain service level standards pertaining to the operation of our systems, and provide the retail distributor with the right to collect damages and potentially to terminate its contract with us for system downtime exceeding stated limits. If we face system interruptions or failures, our business interruption insurance may not be adequate to cover the losses or damages that we incur. In addition, our insurance costs may also increase substantially in the future to cover the costs our insurance carriers may incur.

A data security breach could expose us to liability and protracted and costly litigation, and could adversely affect our reputation and operating revenues.

We and our retail distributors, tax preparation partners, network acceptance members, third-party processors and the merchants that accept our cards receive, transmit and store confidential customer and other information, including personal information, in connection with the sale and use of our products and services. Our encryption software and the other technologies we use to provide security for storage, processing and transmission of confidential customer and other information may not be effective to protect against data security breaches by third parties. The risk of unauthorized circumvention of our security measures has been heightened by advances in computer capabilities and the increasing sophistication of hackers, including state sponsored hackers. Our retail distributors, tax preparation partners, network acceptance members, other business partners, third-party processors and the merchants that accept our cards also may experience similar security breaches involving the receipt, transmission and storage of our confidential customer and other information. Improper access to our or these third parties’ systems or databases could result in the theft, publication, deletion or modification of confidential customer and other information.

49

A data security breach of the systems on which sensitive cardholder or other customer or end-customer data and account information are stored could lead to fraudulent activity involving our products and services, reputational damage and claims or regulatory actions against us. If we are sued in connection with any data security breach, we could be involved in protracted and costly litigation. If unsuccessful in defending that litigation, we might be forced to pay damages and/or change our business practices, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our operating revenues and profitability. We would also likely have to pay (or indemnify the banks that issue our cards for) fines, penalties and/or other assessments imposed by Visa or MasterCard as a result of any data security breach. Further, a significant data security breach could lead to additional regulation, which could impose new and costly compliance obligations. In addition, a data security breach at one of the third-party banks that issue our cards or at our retail distributors, tax preparation partners, network acceptance members, other business partners, third-party processors or the merchants that accept our cards could result in significant reputational harm to us and cause the use and acceptance of our cards or other products and services to decline, either of which could have a significant adverse impact on our operating revenues and future growth prospects. Moreover, it may require substantial financial resources to address and remediate any such breach, including additional costs for replacement cards, manufacturing, distribution, re-stocking fees, fraud monitoring and other added security measures, among others, which could have a significant adverse impact on our operating results.

Additionally, we cannot be certain that our insurance coverage will be adequate for data security liabilities actually incurred, will cover any indemnification claims against us relating to any incident, that insurance will continue to be available to us on reasonable terms, or that any insurer will not deny coverage as to any future claim. The assertion of large claims against us that exceed available insurance coverage, or the occurrence of changes in our insurance policies, including premium increases or large deductible or co-insurance requirements, could have a material adverse effect on our business, including our financial condition, operating results, and reputation.

Replacing third-party vendors would be difficult and disruptive to our business.

Some services relating to our business, including fraud management and other customer verification services, transaction processing and settlement, card production, and customer service, are outsourced to third-party vendors. We also depend on third-party banks to assist with our tax refund processing services. It would be difficult to replace some of our third-party vendors in a timely manner if they were unwilling or unable to provide us with these services during the term of their agreements with us and our business and operations could be adversely affected. In particular, due to the seasonality in our business, any material service interruptions or service delays with key vendors during the tax season could result in losses that have an even greater adverse effect on that business than would be the case with our overall business.

Further, we have in the past and may in the future experience operational issues with the third-party call centers that we rely on to provide customer support. For example, many of our U.S. and international third-party call centers were closed during portions of the first half of 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic, which resulted in delayed responses to customers and a higher usage of automated services. While such issues have largely been resolved, these conditions contributed to transaction losses as compared to prior periods. Any prolonged closure or disruption in the services provided by such call centers could have an adverse effect on our business.

Some of our operations, including a significant portion of our software development operations, are located outside of the United States, which subjects us to additional risks.

We have significantly expanded our software development operations in Shanghai, China and we expect to continue to increase headcount and infrastructure as we scale our operations in this region. A prolonged disruption at our China facility for any reason due to natural- or man-made disasters, outbreaks of disease, such as the COVID-19 pandemic, climate change or other events outside of our control, such as equipment malfunction or large-scale outages or interruptions of service from utilities or telecommunications providers, could potentially delay our ability to launch new products or services, which could materially and adversely affect our business. Additionally, as a result of our international operations, we face numerous other challenges and risks, including:

•increased complexity and costs of managing international operations;

•regional economic instability;

•geopolitical instability and military conflicts;

•limited protection of our intellectual property and other assets;

•compliance with local laws and regulations and unanticipated changes in local laws and regulations, including tax laws and regulations;

REGULATORY AND LEGAL RISKS

As a bank holding company, we are subject to extensive and potentially changing regulation and may be required to serve as a source of strength for Green Dot Bank.

As a bank holding company, we are subject to comprehensive supervision and examination by the Federal Reserve Board and the State of Utah Department of Financial Institutions and must comply with applicable regulations and other commitments we have agreed to, including financial commitments with respect to minimum capital and leverage requirements. If we fail to comply with any of these requirements, we may become subject to formal or informal enforcement actions, proceedings, or investigations, which could result in regulatory orders, restrictions on our business operations or requirements to take corrective actions, which may, individually or in the aggregate, affect our results of operations and restrict our ability to grow. If we fail to comply with the applicable capital and leverage requirements, or if our subsidiary bank fails to comply with its applicable capital and leverage commitments, the Federal Reserve Board may limit our ability to pay dividends or fund stock repurchases, or if we become less than adequately capitalized, require us to raise additional capital. In addition, as a bank holding company and a financial holding company, we are generally prohibited from engaging, directly or indirectly, in any activities other than those permissible for bank holding companies and financial holding companies. For example, if at any time we or Green Dot Bank fail to be “well capitalized” or “well managed,” we may not commence, or acquire any shares of a company engaged in, any activities only permissible for an FHC, without prior Federal Reserve approval. The restriction on our ability to commence, or acquire any shares of a company engaged in, any activities only permissible for an FHC, without prior Federal Reserve approval would also generally apply if Green Dot Bank received a CRA rating of less than “Satisfactory.” Any such restriction might limit our ability to pursue future business opportunities which we might otherwise consider, but which might fall outside the scope of permissible activities. U.S. bank regulatory agencies from time to time take supervisory actions under certain circumstances that restrict or limit a financial institution's activities, including in connection with examinations, which take place on a continual basis. In some instances, we are subject to significant legal restrictions on our ability to publicly disclose these actions or the full details of these actions, including those in examination reports. In addition, as part of the regular examination process, our and Green Dot Bank's regulators may advise us or our subsidiaries to operate under various restrictions as a prudential matter. Such restrictions may include not being able to engage in certain categories of new activities or acquire shares or control of other companies. We would not expect these restrictions to materially restrict us from engaging in activities that are currently contemplated by our business plan.

The failure by Green Dot Bank to maintain its status as a "well-capitalized" institution could have a serious adverse effect on its ability to conduct key portions of its current deposit-taking activity.

A vast majority of Green Dot Bank’s deposits are currently classified as brokered. If Green Dot Bank ceases to be categorized as “well capitalized” under banking regulations, it could be prohibited from accepting, renewing or rolling over brokered deposits without the consent of the FDIC. In such a case, the FDIC’s refusal to grant consent to our accepting, renewing or rolling over brokered deposits could materially adversely affect the financial condition and operations of Green Dot Bank and the Company and could effectively restrict the ability of Green Dot Bank to operate its business lines as presently conducted. In December 2020, the FDIC issued a final rule relating to the brokered deposits restrictions that apply to less than well capitalized insured depository institutions. The final rule establishes a new framework for analyzing certain provisions of the “deposit broker” definition, including “placing deposits,” “facilitating the placement of deposits” and “primary purpose.” The final rule became effective on April 1, 2021, with full compliance with the brokered deposit part of the regulation extended to January 1, 2022. The extended compliance date is intended to provide sufficient time for financial institutions to put in place systems to implement the new regulatory regime and to allow the FDIC to develop internal processes and systems to ensure a consistent and robust review process. We cannot predict how the FDIC will implement the new rule and whether it will result in a change in the way our deposits are classified.

Failure by us and our business partners to comply with applicable laws and regulations could have an adverse effect on our business, financial position and results of operations.

The banking, financial technology, transaction processing and tax refund processing services industries are highly regulated, and failure by us, the banks that issue our cards or the businesses that participate in our reload network or other business partners to comply with the laws and regulations to which we are subject could negatively

51

impact our business. We are subject to state money transmission licensing requirements and a wide range of federal and other state laws and regulations. In particular, our products and services are subject to an increasingly strict set of legal and regulatory requirements intended to protect consumers and to help detect and prevent money laundering, terrorist financing and other illicit activities. For example, we are subject to the anti-money laundering reporting and recordkeeping requirements of the Bank Secrecy Act (“BSA”), as amended by the PATRIOT Act. In addition, legal requirements relating to the collection, storage, handling, use, disclosure, transfer, and security of personal data continue to increase, along with enforcement actions and investigations by regulatory authorities related to data security incidents and privacy violations.

From time to time, federal and state legislators and regulatory authorities, including state attorney generals, increase their focus on the banking, consumer financial services and tax preparation industries and may propose and adopt new legislation or guidance that could result in significant adverse changes in the regulatory landscape for financial institutions and financial services companies. Accordingly, changes in laws and regulations or the interpretation or enforcement thereof may occur that could increase our compliance and other costs of doing business, require significant systems redevelopment, or render our products or services less profitable or obsolete, any of which could have an adverse effect on our results of operations. For example, we could face more stringent anti-money laundering rules and regulations, as well as more stringent licensing rules and regulations, compliance with which could be expensive and time consuming. In addition, adverse rulings relating to the industries in which we participate could cause our products and services to be subject to additional laws and regulations, which could make our products and services less profitable. Further, with the new incoming administration and accompanying changes in leadership at federal agencies such as the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, we expect that financial institutions will remain heavily regulated in the near future and that additional laws or regulations may be adopted further regulating specific banking practices.

If additional regulatory requirements were imposed on the sale of our products and services and our bank, the requirements could lead to a loss of retail distributors, tax preparation partners or other business partners, which, in turn, could materially and adversely impact our operations. Moreover, if our products are adversely impacted by the interpretation or enforcement of these regulations or if we or any of our retail distributors or tax preparation partners were unwilling or unable to make any such operational changes to comply with the interpretation or enforcement thereof, we would no longer be able to sell our products and services through that noncompliant retail distributor or tax preparation partner, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial position and results of operations.

Failure by us or those businesses to comply with the laws and regulations to which we are or may become subject could result in fines, penalties or limitations on our ability to conduct our business, or federal or state actions, any of which could significantly harm our reputation with consumers, banks that issue our cards and regulators, and could materially and adversely affect our business, operating results and financial condition. Many of these laws can be unclear and inconsistent across various jurisdictions and ensuring compliance with them could be difficult and costly. If new regulations or laws result in changes in the way we are regulated, these regulations could expose us to increased regulatory oversight, more burdensome regulation of our business, and increased litigation risk, each of which could increase our costs and decrease our operating revenues. Furthermore, limitations placed on the fees we charge or the disclosures that must be provided with respect to our products and services could increase our costs and decrease our operating revenues.

Changes in rules or standards set by the payment networks, or changes in debit network fees or products or interchange rates, could adversely affect our business, financial position and results of operations.

We are subject to association rules that could subject us to a variety of fines or penalties that may be levied by the card associations or networks for acts or omissions by us or businesses that work with us, including card processors, such as MasterCard PTS. The termination of the card association registrations held by us or any changes in card association or other debit network rules or standards, including interpretation and implementation of existing rules or standards, that increase the cost of doing business or limit our ability to provide our products and services could have an adverse effect on our business, operating results and financial condition. In addition, from time to time, card associations may increase the fees that they charge, which could increase our operating expenses, reduce our profit margin and adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Furthermore, a substantial portion of our operating revenues is derived from interchange fees. For the three months ended June 30, 2021, interchange revenues represented 27% of our total operating revenues, and we expect interchange revenues to continue to represent a significant percentage of our total operating revenues. The amount of interchange revenues that we earn is highly dependent on the interchange rates that the payment networks set and adjust from time to time.

52

The enactment of the Dodd-Frank Act required the Federal Reserve Board to implement regulations that have substantially limited interchange fees for many issuers. While the interchange rates that may be earned by us and our subsidiary bank are exempt from the limitations imposed by the Dodd-Frank Act, there can be no assurance that future regulation or changes by the payment networks will not impact our interchange revenues substantially. If interchange rates decline, whether due to actions by the payment networks or future regulation, we would likely need to change our fee structure to offset the loss of interchange revenues. However, our ability to make these changes is limited by the terms of our contracts and other commercial factors, such as price competition. To the extent we increase the pricing of our products and services, we might find it more difficult to acquire consumers and to maintain or grow card usage and customer retention, and we could suffer reputational damage and become subject to greater regulatory scrutiny. We also might have to discontinue certain products or services. As a result, our total operating revenues, operating results, prospects for future growth and overall business could be materially and adversely affected.

Litigation or investigations could result in significant settlements, fines or penalties.

We are subject to regulatory oversight in the normal course of our business and have been and from time to time may be subject to securities class actions and other litigation or regulatory or judicial proceedings or investigations. The outcome of litigation and regulatory or judicial proceedings or investigations is difficult to predict. Plaintiffs or regulatory agencies or authorities in these matters may seek recovery of very large or indeterminate amounts, seek to have aspects of our business suspended or modified or seek to impose sanctions, including significant monetary fines. The monetary and other impact of these actions, litigations, proceedings or investigations may remain unknown for substantial periods of time. The cost to defend, settle or otherwise resolve these matters may be significant. Further, an unfavorable resolution of litigation, proceedings or investigations against us could have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results, or financial condition. In this regard, such costs could make it more difficult to maintain the capital, leverage and other financial commitments at levels we have agreed to with the Federal Reserve Board and the Utah Department of Financial Institutions. If regulatory or judicial proceedings or investigations were to be initiated against us by private or governmental entities, adverse publicity that may be associated with these proceedings or investigations could negatively impact our relationships with retail distributors, tax preparation partners, network acceptance members, other business partners and card processors and decrease acceptance and use of, and loyalty to, our products and related services, and could impact the price of our Class A common stock. In addition, such proceedings or investigations could increase the risk that we will be involved in litigation. The outcome of any such litigation is difficult to predict and the cost to defend, settle or otherwise resolve these matters may be significant. For the foregoing reasons, if regulatory or judicial proceedings or investigations were to be initiated against us by private or governmental entities, our business, results of operations and financial condition could be adversely affected or our stock price could decline.

We may be unable to adequately protect our brand and our intellectual property rights related to our products and services or third parties may allege that we are infringing their intellectual property rights.

The Green Dot, GO2bank, MoneyPak, TPG and other brands and marks are important to our business, and we utilize trademark registrations and other means to protect them. Our business would be harmed if we were unable to protect our brand against infringement and its value was to decrease as a result. We also rely on a combination of patent, trademark and copyright laws, trade secret protection and confidentiality and license agreements to protect the intellectual property rights related to our products and services. We currently have 13 issued patents and 5 patent applications pending. Although we generally seek patent protection for inventions and improvements that we anticipate will be incorporated into our products and services, there is always a chance that our patents or patent applications could be challenged, invalidated or circumvented, or that an issued patent will not adequately cover the scope of our inventions or improvements incorporated into our products or services. Additionally, our patents could be circumvented by third parties.

We may unknowingly violate the intellectual property or other proprietary rights of others and, thus, may be subject to claims by third parties. Because of the existence of a large number of patents in the mobile technology field, the secrecy of some pending patents, and the rapid rate of issuance of new patents, it is not economically practical or even possible to determine in advance whether a product or any of its elements infringes or will infringe on the patent rights of others. Regardless of the merit of these claims, we may be required to devote significant time and resources to defending against these claims or to protecting and enforcing our own rights. We might also be required to develop a non-infringing technology or enter into license agreements and there can be no assurance that licenses will be available on acceptable terms and conditions, if at all. Some of our intellectual property rights may not be protected by intellectual property laws, particularly in foreign jurisdictions. The loss of our intellectual property or the inability to secure or enforce our intellectual property rights or to defend successfully against an infringement action could harm our business, results of operations, financial condition and prospects.

53

RISKS RELATED TO OUR CAPITAL NEEDS AND INDEBTEDNESS

We might require additional capital to support our business in the future, and this capital might not be available on acceptable terms, or at all.

If our unrestricted cash and cash equivalents balances and any cash generated from operations are not sufficient to meet our future cash requirements, we will need to access additional capital to fund our operations. We may also need to raise additional capital to take advantage of new business or acquisition opportunities. However, we may not be able to raise needed cash in a timely basis on terms acceptable to us or at all. Financings, if available, may be on terms that are dilutive or potentially dilutive to our stockholders. The holders of new securities may also receive rights, preferences or privileges that are senior to those of existing holders of our Class A common stock. In addition, if we were to raise cash through a debt financing, the terms of the financing might impose additional conditions or restrictions on our operations that could adversely affect our business. If we require new sources of financing but they are insufficient or unavailable, we would be required to modify our operating plans to take into account the limitations of available funding, which would harm our ability to maintain or grow our business. Should we require additional credit at levels we are unable to access, the cost of credit is greater than expected, or the cost-savings measures we have implemented are ineffective or result in us incurring greater costs, our operating results could be adversely affected. Further, additional borrowings on our revolving line of credit have and will cause us to incur additional interest expense, which will negatively affect our earnings.

Our debt agreements contain restrictive covenants and financial ratio tests that restrict or prohibit our ability to engage in or enter into a variety of transactions.

Under our $100 million five-year revolving facility, we are subject to various covenants that may have the effect of limiting, among other things, our ability and the ability of certain of our subsidiaries to: merge with other entities, enter into a transaction resulting in a change in control, create new liens, incur additional indebtedness, sell assets outside of the ordinary course of business, enter into transactions with affiliates (other than subsidiaries) or substantially change the general nature of our and our subsidiaries’ business, taken as a whole, make certain investments, enter into restrictive agreements, or make certain dividends or other distributions. These restrictions could limit our ability to take advantage of financing, merger, acquisition or other opportunities, to fund our business operations or to fully implement our current and future operating strategies. We must also maintain compliance with a maximum consolidated leverage ratio and a minimum consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio of 2.50 and 1.25, respectively, at the end of any fiscal quarter. Our ability to meet these financial ratios and tests will be dependent upon our future performance and may be affected by events beyond our control (including factors discussed in this “Risk Factors" section). If we fail to satisfy these requirements, our indebtedness under these agreements could become accelerated and payable at a time when we are unable to pay them. This would adversely affect our ability to implement our operating strategies and would have a material adverse effect on our financial condition.

The phaseout of the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR), or the replacement of LIBOR with a different reference rate, may have an adverse effect on our business.

On March 5, 2021, the ICE Benchmark Administration, the administrator of the London Interbank Offered Rate, or LIBOR, announced that it will stop publishing certain LIBOR rates after December 31, 2021 and all of these widely used reference rates will no longer be available after June 30, 2023. Consequently, we may need to renegotiate our debt arrangements that extend beyond 2021, such as our credit agreement, which provides for our revolving facility, that utilize LIBOR as a factor in determining the interest rate, which may negatively impact the terms of such indebtedness. Any alternative reference rate may increase the interest expense associated with our existing or future indebtedness. Changes in market interest rates may influence our financing costs, returns on financial investments and the valuation of derivative contracts and could reduce our earnings and cash flows. In addition, the overall financial markets may be disrupted as a result of the phase out or replacement of LIBOR. Disruption in the financial markets could have an adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations, cash flows, and liquidity.

GENERAL RISKS

Our operating results may fluctuate in the future, which could cause our stock price to decline.

If our quarterly and annual results of operations fall below the expectations of investors or any securities analysts who follow our Class A common stock, the trading price of our Class A common stock could decline substantially. Fluctuations in our quarterly or annual results of operations might result from a number of factors, many of which are outside of our control, including, but not limited to:

•the timing and volume of purchases and use of our products and services;

54

•the timing and volume of tax refunds or other government payments (including stimulus payments related to the COVID-19 pandemic) processed by us;

•the timing and success of new product or service introductions by us or our competitors;

•seasonality in the purchase or use of our products and services;

•changes in the level of interchange rates that can be charged;

•fluctuations in customer retention rates;

•changes in the mix of products and services that we sell;

•changes in the mix of retail distributors through which we sell our products and services;

•the timing of commencement, renegotiation or termination of relationships with significant retail distributors and BaaS partners;

•the timing of commencement of new product development and initiatives, the timing of costs of existing product roll-outs and the length of time we must invest in those new products, channels or retail distributors before they generate material operating revenues;

•our ability to effectively sell our products through direct-to-consumer initiatives;

•changes in our or our competitors’ pricing policies or sales terms;

•costs associated with significant changes in our risk policies and controls;

•the amount and timing of costs related to fraud losses;

•the amount and timing of commencement and termination of major advertising campaigns, including sponsorships;

•the amount and timing of costs related to the acquisition of businesses;

•the amount and timing of costs of any major litigation to which we are a party;

•disruptions in the performance of our products and services, including interruptions in the services we provide to other businesses, and the associated financial impact thereof;

•the amount and timing of capital expenditures and operating costs related to the maintenance and expansion of our business, operations and infrastructure;

•interest rate volatility;

•changes in our executive leadership team;

•accounting charges related to impairment of goodwill and other intangible assets;

•our ability to control costs, including third-party service provider costs and sales and marketing expenses in an increasingly competitive market;

•volatility in the trading price of our Class A common stock, which may lead to higher or lower stock-based compensation expenses;

•changes in the political or regulatory environment affecting the banking, electronic payments or tax refund processing industries;

•economic recessions or uncertainty in financial markets, including those recently caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, and the impact of inflation;

•the impact of the U.S. presidential administration on, among other things, the regulation of financial institutions and corporate tax rates; and

55

•other factors beyond our control, such as terrorism, war, natural disasters and pandemics, including the COVID-19 pandemic.

Our actual operating results may differ significantly from our guidance.

From time to time, we issue guidance in our quarterly earnings conference calls, or otherwise, regarding our future performance that represents our management’s estimates as of the date of release. Guidance is necessarily speculative in nature, and it can be expected that some or all of the assumptions underlying the guidance furnished by us will prove to be incorrect or will vary significantly from actual results. For example, on a number of occasions over the last several years we adjusted our revenue guidance when actual results varied from our assumptions. Accordingly, our guidance is only an estimate of what management believes is realizable as of the date of release. Actual results will vary from our guidance and the variations may be material, especially in times of economic uncertainty.

Our future success depends on our ability to attract, integrate, retain and incentivize key personnel.

Our ability to manage and grow our business will depend, to a significant extent, on our ability to attract, integrate, retain and recognize key personnel, namely our management team and experienced sales, marketing and program and technology development personnel. We may experience difficulty in managing transitions and assimilating newly-hired personnel, and if we fail to manage these transitions successfully, we could experience significant delays or difficulty in the achievement of our development and strategic objectives and our business, financial condition and results of operations could be materially and adversely harmed. Competition for qualified management, sales, marketing and program and technology development personnel can be intense. Competitors have in the past and may in the future attempt to recruit our top management and employees. In order to attract and retain personnel in a competitive marketplace, we must provide competitive pay packages, including cash and equity-based compensation and the volatility in our stock price may from time to time adversely affect our ability to recruit or retain employees.

Acquisitions or investments could disrupt our business and harm our financial condition.

We have in the past acquired, and we expect to acquire in the future, other businesses and technologies. The process of integrating an acquired business, product, service or technology can involve a number of special risks and challenges, including:

•increased regulatory and compliance requirements;

•implementation or remediation of controls, procedures and policies at the acquired company;

•diversion of management time and focus from operation of our then-existing business;

•integration and coordination of product, sales, marketing, program and systems management functions;

•transition of the acquired company’s users and customers onto our systems;

•integration of the acquired company’s accounting, information management, human resource and other administrative systems and operations generally with ours;

•integration of employees from the acquired company into our organization;

•loss or termination of employees, including costs associated with the termination or replacement of those employees;

•liability for activities of the acquired company prior to the acquisition, including violations of law, commercial disputes, and tax and other known and unknown liabilities; and

•increased litigation or other claims in connection with the acquired company, including claims brought by terminated employees, customers, former stockholders or other third parties.

If we are unable to successfully integrate an acquired business or technology or otherwise address these special risks and challenges or other problems encountered in connection with an acquisition, we might not realize the anticipated benefits of that acquisition, we might incur unanticipated liabilities, or we might otherwise suffer harm to our business generally. Furthermore, acquisitions and investments are often speculative in nature and the actual benefits we derive from them could be lower or take longer to materialize than we expect. In addition, to the extent we pay the consideration for any future acquisitions or investments in cash, it would reduce the amount of cash

56

available to us for other purposes. Future acquisitions or investments could also result in dilutive issuances of our equity securities or the incurrence of debt, contingent liabilities, amortization expenses, or goodwill impairment charges, any of which could harm our financial condition and negatively impact our stockholders.

An impairment charge of goodwill or other intangible assets could have a material adverse impact on our financial condition and results of operations.

Because we have grown in part through acquisitions, our net goodwill and intangible assets represent a significant portion of our consolidated assets. Our net goodwill and intangible assets were $476.9 million as of June 30, 2021. Under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, or U.S. GAAP, we are required to test the carrying value of goodwill and intangible assets at least annually or sooner if events occur that indicate impairment could exist, such as a significant change in the business climate, including a significant sustained decline in a reporting unit’s fair value, legal and regulatory factors, operating performance indicators, competition and other factors. The amount of any impairment charge could be significant and could have a material adverse impact on our financial condition and results of operations for the period in which the charge is taken.

If we fail to maintain proper and effective internal controls, our ability to produce accurate financial statements on a timely basis could be impaired.

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of our financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with U.S. GAAP. We have in the past and may in the future discover areas of our internal financial and accounting controls and procedures that need improvement. If we are unable to maintain proper and effective internal controls, we may not be able to produce accurate financial statements on a timely basis and might suffer adverse regulatory consequences or violate NYSE listing standards, which could adversely affect our ability to operate our business and could result in regulatory action, and could require us to restate our financial statements. Any such restatement could result in a loss of public confidence in the reliability of our financial statements and sanctions imposed on us by the SEC.

Our business could be negatively affected by actions of stockholders.

The actions of stockholders could adversely affect our business. Specifically, certain actions of certain types of stockholders, including without limitation public proposals, requests to pursue a strategic combination or other transaction or special demands or requests, could disrupt our operations, be costly and time-consuming or divert the attention of our management and employees and increase the volatility of our stock. In addition, perceived uncertainties as to our future direction in relation to the actions of our stockholders may result in the loss of potential business opportunities or the perception that we are unstable and need to make changes, which may be exploited by our competitors and make it more difficult to attract and retain personnel as well as customers, service providers and partners. Actions by our stockholders may also cause fluctuations in our stock price based on speculative market perceptions or other factors that do not necessarily reflect the underlying fundamentals and prospects of our business.

Our charter documents, Delaware law and our status as bank holding company could discourage, delay or prevent a takeover that stockholders consider favorable.

Provisions in our certificate of incorporation and bylaws, as well as provisions under Delaware law, could discourage potential takeover attempts, reduce the price that investors might be willing to pay in the future for shares of our Class A common stock, and result in the trading price of our Class A common stock being lower than it otherwise would be. In addition to the foregoing, under the BHC Act and the Change in Bank Control Act, and their respective implementing regulations, Federal Reserve Board approval is necessary prior to any person or company acquiring control of a bank or bank holding company, subject to certain exceptions. Control, among other considerations, exists if an individual or company acquires 25% or more of any class of voting securities, and may be presumed to exist if a person acquires 10% or more of any class of voting securities. These restrictions could affect the willingness or ability of a third party to acquire control of us for so long as we are a bank holding company.

Accounting Policies [Abstract]

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America, or GAAP. We consolidated our wholly-owned subsidiaries and eliminated all significant intercompany balances and transactions.

We have also prepared the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements in conformity with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X and, consequently, they do not include all of the annual disclosures required by GAAP. Reference is made to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 for additional disclosures, including a summary of our significant accounting policies. There have been no material changes to our significant accounting policies during the six months ended June 30, 2021, other than the adoption of the accounting pronouncements discussed herein. In our opinion, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments, consisting of normal and recurring items, necessary for the fair presentation of our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. Future events and their effects cannot be predicted with certainty; accordingly, accounting estimates require the exercise of judgment. These financial statements were prepared using information reasonably available as of June 30, 2021 and through the date of this report. The accounting estimates used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements may change as new events occur, as more experience is acquired, as additional information is obtained, and as our operating environment changes. Actual results may differ from these estimates due to the uncertainty around the magnitude, duration and effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, as well as other factors.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements    

Recently adopted accounting pronouncements

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes (“ASU 2019-12”), which simplifies various aspects related to the accounting for income taxes. The standard removes certain exceptions to the general principles in Topic 740 and also clarifies and modifies existing guidance to improve consistent application of Topic 740. ASU 2019-12 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, including interim periods within those fiscal years. We adopted the provisions of ASU 2019-12 on January 1, 2021, the results of which did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Recently issued accounting pronouncements not yet adopted

In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 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) (“ASU 2020-06”), which simplifies an issuer’s accounting for convertible instruments and its application of the derivatives scope exception for contracts in its own equity. ASU 2020-06 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, including interim periods within those fiscal years. We are currently evaluating the provisions of ASU 2020-06, but do not expect any material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Note 2—Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848) ("ASU 2020-04"), which provides optional expedients and exceptions to GAAP requirements for modifications of debt instruments, leases, derivatives and other transactions that reference the London Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR") or another reference rate expected to be discontinued because of reference rate reform. The guidance permits entities to treat such modifications as the continuation of the original contract, without any required accounting reassessments or remeasurements. The amendments in ASU 2020-04 were effective upon issuance and may be elected over time through December 31, 2022, as reference rate reform activities occur. Upon adoption, the guidance must be applied prospectively for all eligible contract modifications. We do not expect any material impact on our consolidated financial statements as our existing revolving line of credit is based on variable rates available that we elect at the time of borrowing. See Note 9 — Debt, to these consolidated financial statements for additional information.

Revenues

As discussed in Note 19 — Segment Information, we determine our operating segments based on how our chief operating decision maker manages our operations, makes operating decisions and evaluates operating performance. Within our segments, we believe that the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of our revenue and cash flows and how they are affected by economic factors can be further illustrated based on the timing in which revenue for each of our products and services is recognized. Our products and services are offered only to customers within the United States.

The following table disaggregates our revenues earned from external customers by each of our reportable segments:

Note 3—Revenues (continued)

Revenues recognized at a point in time are comprised of ATM fees, interchange, and other similar transaction-based fees. Revenues recognized over time consists of new card fees, monthly maintenance fees, revenue earned from gift cards and substantially all BaaS partner program management fees. Substantially all of our money movement services are recognized at a point in time.

As disclosed on our Consolidated Balance Sheets, we record deferred revenue for any upfront payments received in advance of our performance obligations being satisfied. These contract liabilities consist principally of unearned new card fees and monthly maintenance fees. We recognized approximately $9.1 million and $8.9 million in revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, and $26.6 million and $25.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, that were included in deferred revenue at the beginning of the periods and did not recognize any revenue during these periods from performance obligations satisfied in previous periods. Changes in the deferred revenue balance are driven primarily by the amount of new card fees recognized during the period, and the degree to which these reductions to the deferred revenue balance are offset by the deferral of new card fees associated with cards sold during the period.

Our investments generally consist of highly rated securities, substantially all of which are directly or indirectly backed by the U.S. federal government. Our investment policy restricts our investments to highly liquid, low credit risk assets. As such, we have not recorded any significant credit-related impairment losses during the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 or 2020 on our available-for-sale investment securities. Unrealized losses as of June 30, 2021 are the result of recent fluctuations in interest rates as our investment portfolio is comprised predominantly of fixed rate securities. We do not intend to sell our investments, and we have determined that it is more likely than not that we will not be required to sell our investments before recovery of their amortized cost bases, which may be at maturity.

As of June 30, 2021, the contractual maturities of our available-for-sale investment securities were as follows:

	Amortized cost		Fair value
	(In thousands)

Total investment securities	$	1,105,041	$	1,090,513

The expected payments on mortgage-backed and asset-backed securities may not coincide with their contractual maturities because the issuers have the right to call or prepay certain obligations.

Our net overdrawn account balances due from cardholders are a result of purchase transactions that we may honor or maintenance fee assessments, in each case, in excess of the funds in the cardholder’s account. While we decline authorization attempts for amounts that exceed the available balance in a cardholder’s account, the application of card association rules, and the timing of the settlement of transactions, among other things, can result in overdrawn accounts. Overdrawn cardholder balances from maintenance fee assessments are presented net of the consideration we expect to receive and are recorded as contra-revenue within card revenues and other fees.

Beginning in 2021, we introduced an optional overdraft protection program service on certain demand deposit account programs that allows cardholders who opt-in to spend a pre-determined amount in excess of their available card balance. When overdrawn, these deposit accounts are reclassified as consumer loans. Overdrawn balances are unsecured and considered immediately due from the cardholder.

Nonperforming Loans

The following table presents the carrying value, gross of the related allowance for credit losses, of our nonperforming loans.

Credit Quality Indicators

We closely monitor and assess the credit quality and credit risk of our loan portfolio on an ongoing basis. We continuously review and update loan risk classifications. We evaluate our loans using non-classified or classified as the primary credit quality indicator. Classified loans are those loans that have demonstrated credit weakness where we believe there is a heightened risk of principal loss, including all impaired loans. Classified loans are generally internally categorized as substandard, doubtful or loss, consistent with regulatory guidelines.

Our secured credit card portfolio is collateralized by cash deposits made by each cardholder in an amount equal to the user's available credit limit, which mitigates the risk of any significant credit losses we expect to incur.

The table below presents the carrying value, gross of the related allowance for credit losses, of our loans within the primary credit quality indicators related to our loan portfolio:

Impaired Loans and Troubled Debt Restructurings

When, for economic or legal reasons related to a borrower’s financial difficulties, we grant a concession for other than an insignificant period of time to a borrower that we would not otherwise consider, the related loan is classified as a Troubled Debt Restructuring, or TDR. Our TDR modifications involve an extension of the maturity date at a stated interest rate lower than the current market rate for new debt with similar risk. As of June 30, 2021, none of our TDR modifications have been made in response to the COVID-19 pandemic.

The following table presents our impaired loans and loans that we modified as TDRs as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020:

Equity Method Investments and Joint Ventures [Abstract]

Equity Method Investment

Equity Method Investment

On January 2, 2020, we effectuated our agreement with Walmart to jointly establish a new fintech accelerator under the name TailFin Labs, LLC (“TailFin Labs”), with a mission to develop innovative products, services and technologies that sit at the intersection of retail shopping and consumer financial services. The entity is majority-owned by Walmart and focuses on developing tech-enabled solutions to integrate omni-channel retail shopping and financial services. We hold a 20% ownership interest in the entity, in exchange for annual capital contributions of $35.0 million per year from January 2020 through January 2024.

We account for our investment in TailFin Labs under the equity method of accounting in accordance with ASC 323, Investments – Equity Method and Joint Ventures. Under the equity method of accounting, the initial investment is recorded at cost and the investment is subsequently adjusted for, among other things, its proportionate share of earnings or losses. However, given the capital structure of the TailFin Labs arrangement, we apply the Hypothetical Liquidation Book Value ("HLBV") method to determine the allocation of profits and losses since our liquidation rights

Note 7—Equity Method Investment (continued)

and priorities, as defined by the agreement, differ from our underlying ownership interest. The HLBV method calculates the proceeds that would be attributable to each partner in an investment based on the liquidation provisions of the agreement if the partnership was to be liquidated at book value as of the balance sheet date. Each partner’s allocation of income or loss in the period is equal to the change in the amount of net equity they are legally able to claim based on a hypothetical liquidation of the entity at the end of a reporting period compared to the beginning of that period, adjusted for any capital transactions.

Any future economic benefits derived from products or services developed by TailFin Labs will be negotiated on a case-by-case basis between the parties.

As of June 30, 2021, our net investment in TailFin Labs amounted to approximately $61.5 million and is included in the long term portion of prepaid expenses and other assets on our consolidated balance sheet. We recorded equity in losses from TailFin Labs of approximately $0.7 million and $2.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, and $2.3 million and $2.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, which are recorded as a component of other income and expense on our consolidated statement of operations. Total equity in losses also includes income and losses from other investments that are not material to these consolidated financial statements.

Debt

2019 Revolving Facility

In October 2019, we entered into a secured credit agreement with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, and other lenders party thereto. The credit facility provides for a $100.0 million five-year revolving line of credit (the "2019 Revolving Facility"), maturing in October 2024. We use the proceeds of any borrowings under the 2019 Revolving Facility for working capital and other general corporate purposes, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the credit agreement. We classify amounts outstanding as long-term on our consolidated balance sheets; however, we may make voluntary repayments at any time prior to maturity. As of June 30, 2021, we had no borrowings outstanding on the 2019 Revolving Facility and had the full amount available for use.

Note 9—Debt (continued)

At our election, loans made under the credit agreement bear interest at 1) a LIBOR rate (the “LIBOR Rate") or 2) a base rate determined by reference to the highest of (a) the United States federal funds rate plus .50%, (b) the Wells Fargo prime rate and (c) a daily rate equal to one-month LIBOR rate plus 1.0% (the “Base Rate"), plus in either case an applicable margin. The margin is dependent upon on our total leverage ratio and varies from 1.25% to 2.00% for LIBOR Rate loans and .25% to 1.00% for Base Rate loans.

We also pay a commitment fee, which varies from .20% to .35% per annum on the actual daily unused portions of the 2019 Revolving Facility. Letter of credit fees are payable in respect of outstanding letters of credit at a rate per annum equal to the applicable margin for LIBOR Rate loans.

The 2019 Revolving Facility contains certain affirmative and negative covenants including negative covenants that limit or restrict, among other things, liens, indebtedness, investments and acquisitions, mergers and fundamental changes, asset sales, restricted payments, changes in the nature of the business, transactions with affiliates and other matters customarily restricted in such agreements. We must also maintain a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio and a maximum consolidated leverage ratio at the end of each fiscal quarter, as set forth in the credit agreement. At June 30, 2021, we were in compliance with all such covenants.

If an event of default shall occur and be continuing under the facility, the commitments may be terminated and the principal amounts outstanding under the 2019 Revolving Facility, together with all accrued unpaid interest and other amounts owing in respect thereof, may be declared immediately due and payable.

We did not incur any cash interest expense related to our debt during the three and six months ended June 30, 2021. Cash interest expense was $0.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and $0.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020.

Income Taxes

Income Taxes

Income tax expense for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 differs from the amount computed by applying the statutory federal income tax rate to income before income taxes. The sources and tax effects of the differences are as follows:

	Six Months Ended June 30,
	2021		2020
U.S. federal statutory tax rate	21.0	%	21.0	%
State income taxes, net of federal tax benefit	1.1		(0.6)
General business credits	(1.9)		(6.6)
Employee stock-based compensation	(2.9)		1.8
IRC 162(m) limitation	6.4		8.1
Nondeductible expenses	0.1		0.7
Other	(0.3)		(0.5)
Effective tax rate	23.5	%	23.9	%

The effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 differs from the statutory federal income tax rate of 21%, primarily due to state income taxes, net of federal tax benefits, general business credits, employee stock-based compensation, and the Internal Revenue Code (IRC) 162(m) limitation on the deductibility of executive compensation. The overall decrease in the effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2021 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2020 is primarily due to a decrease of $1.1 million on the IRC 162(m) limitation on the deductibility of executive compensation and an increase of $3.1 million in excess tax benefits from stock-based compensation. We recognized an excess tax benefit on stock-based compensation of $1.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021, compared to a $1.2 million discrete tax expense on shortfalls from stock based compensation for the prior year comparable period.

We have made a policy election to account for Global Intangible Low-Taxed Income ("GILTI") in the year the GILTI tax is incurred. For the six months ended June 30, 2021, the provision for GILTI tax expense was not material to our financial statements.

Note 10—Income Taxes (continued)

We establish a valuation allowance when we consider it more-likely-than-not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. As of June 30, 2021 and 2020, we did not have a valuation allowance on any of our deferred tax assets as we believe it is more-likely-than-not that we will realize the benefits of our deferred tax assets. During the six months ended June 30, 2020, we released our valuation allowance against our capital loss carryforwards, as we recognized capital gains on the sale of certain investment securities during that period sufficient to offset our capital loss carryforward amount.

We are subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service, or IRS, and various state tax authorities. We remain subject to examination of our federal income tax return for the years ended December 31, 2017 through 2020. We generally remain subject to examination of our various state income tax returns for a period of four to five years from the respective dates that the returns were filed. The IRS initiated an examination of our 2017 U.S. federal tax return during the second quarter ended June 30, 2020, and the examination remains ongoing as of June 30, 2021. We do not expect the outcome of this examination will have any material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

As of June 30, 2021, we have federal net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $19.2 million and state net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $68.8 million, which will be available to offset future income. If not used, the federal net operating losses will expire between 2026 and 2034. Of our total state net operating loss carryforwards, approximately $46.6 million will expire between 2023 and 2040, while the remaining balance of approximately $22.2 million does not expire and carries forward indefinitely. The net operating losses are subject to an annual IRC Section 382 limitation, which restricts their utilization against taxable income in future periods. In addition, we have state business tax credits of approximately $19.4 million that can be carried forward indefinitely and other state business tax credits of approximately $1.1 million that will expire between 2023 and 2027.

As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, we had a liability of $11.0 million and $9.5 million, respectively, for unrecognized tax benefits related to various federal and state income tax matters excluding interest, penalties and related tax benefits. The reconciliation of the beginning unrecognized tax benefits balance to the ending balance is as follows:

	Six Months Ended June 30,
	2021		2020
	(In thousands)
Beginning balance	$	9,518	$	8,398
Increases related to positions taken during prior years	—		235

Ending balance	$	10,988	$	9,833
The total amount of unrecognized tax benefits that, if recognized, would affect the effective tax rate	$	10,801	$	9,660

As of June 30, 2021 and 2020, we recognized accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits of approximately $0.6 million and $0.7 million, respectively.

On January 2, 2020, we issued Walmart, in a private placement, 975,000 restricted shares of our Class A Common Stock. The shares vest in equal monthly increments through December 1, 2022. Walmart is entitled to voting rights and participate in any dividends paid from the issuance date on the unvested balance, and therefore, the total amount of restricted shares issued are included in our total Class A shares outstanding. As of June 30, 2021, there were 487,502 unvested shares outstanding. The estimated grant-date fair value of the restricted shares is recorded as a component of stock-based compensation expense over the related period we expect to benefit under the term of our relationship with Walmart.

Share-based Payment Arrangement [Abstract]

Stock-Based Compensation

Stock-Based Compensation

We currently grant restricted stock unit awards to employees, directors and non-employee consultants under our 2010 Equity Incentive Plan and from time to time may also grant stock option awards. Through our 2010 Employee Stock Purchase Plan, employees are also able to purchase shares of our Class A common stock at a discount through payroll deductions. We have reserved shares of our Class A common stock for issuance under these plans.

The total stock-based compensation expense recognized was $8.4 million and $13.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, and $25.6 million and $25.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

We grant performance-based restricted stock units to certain employees that are subject to the attainment of pre-established internal performance conditions, market conditions, or a combination thereof (collectively referred to herein as performance-based restricted stock units). The actual number of shares subject to the award is determined at the end of the performance period and may range from 0% to 200% of the target shares granted depending upon the terms of the award. These awards generally contain an additional service component after each performance period is concluded and the unvested balance of the shares after the performance metrics are achieved will vest over the remaining requisite service period. Compensation expense related to these awards is recognized using the accelerated attribution method over the vesting period (generally, a period of at least four years) based on the grant date fair value of the award.

The restricted shares issued to Walmart contain non-forfeitable rights to dividends and are considered participating securities for purposes of computing EPS pursuant to the two-class method. The computation above excludes income attributable to the unvested restricted shares from the numerator and excludes the dilutive impact of those underlying shares from the denominator.

For the periods presented, we excluded certain restricted stock units and stock options outstanding (as applicable), which could potentially dilute basic EPS in the future, from the computation of diluted EPS as their effect was anti-dilutive. Additionally, we have excluded any performance-based restricted stock units where the performance contingency has not been met as of the end of the period. The following table shows the weighted-average number of shares excluded from the diluted EPS calculation as their effects were anti-dilutive:

	Three Months Ended June 30,		Six Months Ended June 30,

Fair Value Measurements

Fair Value Measurements

Under applicable accounting guidance, fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date.

We determine the fair values of our financial instruments based on the fair value hierarchy established under applicable accounting guidance, which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. There are three levels of inputs used to measure fair value.

For more information regarding the fair value hierarchy and how we measure fair value, see Note 2–Summary of Significant Accounting Policies to the Consolidated Financial Statements of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020.

As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, our assets and liabilities carried at fair value on a recurring basis were as follows:

	Level 1		Level 2		Level 3		Total Fair Value

We based the fair value of our fixed income securities held as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 on quoted prices in active markets for similar assets. We had no transfers between Level 1, Level 2 or Level 3 assets or liabilities during the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 or 2020.

The following table presents changes in our contingent consideration payable for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, which is categorized in Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy:

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The following describes the valuation technique for determining the fair value of financial instruments, whether or not such instruments are carried at fair value on our consolidated balance sheets.

Short-term Financial Instruments

Our short-term financial instruments consist principally of unrestricted and restricted cash and cash equivalents, settlement assets and obligations, and obligations to customers. These financial instruments are short-term in nature, and, accordingly, we believe their carrying amounts approximate their fair values. Under the fair value hierarchy, these instruments are classified as Level 1.

Investment Securities

The fair values of investment securities have been derived using methodologies referenced in Note 2–Summary of Significant Accounting Policies to the Consolidated Financial Statements of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020. Under the fair value hierarchy, our investment securities are classified as Level 2.

Loans

We determined the fair values of loans by discounting both principal and interest cash flows expected to be collected using a discount rate commensurate with the risk that we believe a market participant would consider in determining fair value. Under the fair value hierarchy, our loans are classified as Level 3.

Deposits

The fair value of demand and interest checking deposits and savings deposits is the amount payable on demand at the reporting date. We determined the fair value of time deposits by discounting expected future cash flows using market-derived rates based on our market yields on certificates of deposit, by maturity, at the measurement date. Under the fair value hierarchy, our deposits are classified as Level 2.

Contingent Consideration

The fair value of contingent consideration obligations, such as the earn-out associated with our acquisition of UniRush LLC ("UniRush") in 2017, is estimated through valuation models designed to estimate the probability of such contingent payments based on various assumptions. Estimated payments are discounted using present value techniques to arrive at an estimated fair value. Our contingent consideration payable is classified as Level 3 because we use unobservable inputs to estimate fair value, including the probability of achieving certain earnings thresholds and appropriate discount rates. Changes in fair value of contingent consideration are recorded through operating expenses.

Debt

The fair value of our revolving line of credit is based on borrowing rates currently available to a market participant for loans with similar terms or maturity. The carrying amount of our outstanding revolving line of credit approximates fair value because the base interest rate charged varies with market conditions and the credit spread is commensurate with current market spreads for issuers of similar risk. The fair value of the revolving line of credit is classified as a Level 2 liability in the fair value hierarchy.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The carrying values and fair values of certain financial instruments that were not carried at fair value, excluding short-term financial instruments for which the carrying value approximates fair value, at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 are presented in the table below.

Leases [Abstract]

Leases

Leases

Our leases consist of operating lease agreements principally related to our corporate and subsidiary office locations. Currently, we do not enter into any financing lease agreements. Our leases have remaining lease terms of less than 1 year to approximately 5 years, many of which include renewal options of varying terms.

As of December 31, 2020, we committed to a remote workforce strategy for most U.S. based employees and recorded a substantial impairment charge to our lease right-of-use assets as we no longer intend to utilize our leased office spaces in the U.S. for the duration of our remaining lease terms. Our lease agreements have or will be terminated in due course in accordance with our lease provisions; however, we may be contractually obligated to continue making lease payments where no termination option is available.

Our total lease expense amounted to approximately $0.6 million and $2.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, and $1.8 million and $4.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. Our lease expense is generally based on fixed payments stated within the agreements. Any variable payments for non-lease components and other short term lease expenses are not considered material.

Commitments and Contingencies

Financial Commitments

In May 2021, we announced that we entered into a definitive agreement to purchase the assets and operations of Tax Refund Solutions (“TRS”), a business segment of Republic Bank & Trust Company ("Republic Bank"), subject to customary closing conditions. Pursuant to the terms of the definitive agreement, we have agreed to pay Republic Bank approximately $165 million in cash for the TRS assets. We are seeking the Federal Reserve’s approval of or non-objection, as applicable, to the proposed transaction. The parties are working to complete the proposed transaction in the third quarter of 2021.

As discussed in Note 7 — Equity Method Investment, we are committed to make annual capital contributions in TailFin Labs, LLC of $35.0 million per year through January 2024.

Our definitive agreement to acquire all of the equity interests of UniRush provides for a minimum $4 million annual earn-out payment for five years following the closing, ending in February 2022. As of June 30, 2021, the estimated fair value of our remaining earn-out payments amounted to $3.3 million, and is recorded in the current portion of other accrued liabilities on our consolidated balance sheets.

Note 17—Commitments and Contingencies (continued)

Litigation and Claims

In the ordinary course of business, we are a party to various legal proceedings, including, from time to time, actions which are asserted to be maintainable as class action suits. We review these actions on an ongoing basis to determine whether it is probable and estimable that a loss has occurred and use that information when making accrual and disclosure decisions. We have provided reserves where necessary for all claims and, based on current knowledge and in part upon the advice of legal counsel, all matters are believed to be adequately covered by insurance, or, if not covered, we do not expect the outcome in any legal proceedings, individually or collectively, to have a material adverse impact on our financial condition or results of operations.

On December 18, 2019, an alleged class action entitled Koffsmon v. Green Dot Corp., et al., No. 19-cv-10701-DDP-E, was filed in the United States District Court for the Central District of California, against us and two of our former officers. The suit asserts purported claims under Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Exchange Act for allegedly misleading statements regarding our business strategy. Plaintiff alleges that defendants made statements that were misleading because they allegedly failed to disclose details regarding our customer acquisition strategy and its impact on our financial performance. The suit is purportedly brought on behalf of purchasers of our securities between May 9, 2018 and November 7, 2019, and seeks compensatory damages, fees and costs. On February 18, 2020, a shareholder derivative suit and securities class action entitled Hellman v. Streit, et al, No. 20-cv-01572-SVW-PVC was filed in United States District Court for the Central District of California, against us and certain of our officers and directors. The suit avers purported breach of fiduciary duty and unjust enrichment claims, as well as claims under Sections 10(b), 14(a) and 20(a) of the Exchange Act, on the basis of the same wrongdoing alleged in the first lawsuit described above. The suit does not define the purported class allegedly damaged. These cases have been related. We have not yet responded to the complaints in these matters.

Due to the inherent uncertainties of litigation, we cannot accurately predict the ultimate outcome of this matter. We are unable at this time to determine whether the outcome of the litigation would have a material impact on our results of operations, financial condition or cash flows.

Other Legal Matters

We monitor the laws of all 50 states to identify state laws or regulations that apply (or may apply) to our products and services. We have obtained money transmitter licenses (or similar such licenses) where applicable, based on advice of counsel or when we have been requested to do so. If we were found to be in violation of any laws and regulations governing banking, money transmitters, electronic fund transfers, or money laundering in the United States or abroad, we could be subject to penalties or could be forced to change our business practices.

From time to time we enter into contracts containing provisions that contingently require us to indemnify various parties against claims from third parties. These contracts primarily relate to: (i) contracts with our card issuing banks, under which we are responsible to them for any unrecovered overdrafts on cardholders’ accounts; (ii) certain real estate leases, under which we may be required to indemnify property owners for environmental and other liabilities, and other claims arising from our use of the premises; (iii) certain agreements with our officers, directors, and employees, under which we may be required to indemnify these persons for liabilities arising out of their relationship with us; and (iv) contracts under which we may be required to indemnify our retail distributors, suppliers, vendors and other parties with whom we have contracts against claims arising from certain of our actions, omissions, violations of law and/or infringement of patents, trademarks, copyrights and/or other intellectual property rights.

Generally, a maximum obligation under these contracts is not explicitly stated. Because the obligated amounts associated with these types of agreements are not explicitly stated, the overall maximum amount of the obligation cannot be reasonably estimated. With the exception of overdrafts on cardholders’ accounts, historically, we have not been required to make payments under these and similar contingent obligations, and no liabilities have been recorded for these obligations in our consolidated balance sheets.

For additional information regarding overdrafts on cardholders’ accounts, refer to Note 5 — Accounts Receivable.

Risks and Uncertainties [Abstract]

Significant Retailer and Partner Concentration

Significant Retailer and Partner Concentration

A credit concentration may exist if customers are involved in similar industries, economic sectors, and geographic regions. Our retail distributors operate in similar economic sectors but diverse domestic geographic regions. The loss of a significant retail distributor could have a material adverse effect upon our card sales, profitability, and revenue growth.

Revenues derived from our products sold at retail distributors constituting greater than 10% of our total operating revenues were as follows:

	Three Months Ended June 30,		Six Months Ended June 30,
	2021	2020	2021	2020
Walmart	23%	29%	24%	27%

In addition, approximately 20% and 18% of our total operating revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively, were generated from a single BaaS partner, without a corresponding concentration to our gross profit for the period.

Segment Reporting [Abstract]

Segment Information

Segment Information

Effective beginning with the first quarter of 2021, we have realigned our segment financial reporting based on how our current Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) manages our businesses, including resource allocation and performance assessment. Our CODM organizes and manages the business primarily on the basis of the channels in which our product and services are offered and uses net revenues and segment profit to assess profitability. Segment profit reflects each segment's net revenue less direct costs, such as sales and marketing expenses, processing expenses, third-party call center support and transaction losses. As a result of this realignment, our operations are now aggregated amongst three reportable segments: 1) Consumer Services, 2) Business to Business ("B2B") Services, and 3) Money Movement Services.

Our Consumer Services segment consists of revenues and expenses derived from deposit account programs, such as consumer checking accounts, prepaid cards, secured credit cards, and gift cards that we offer to consumers (i) through distribution arrangements with more than 90,000 retail locations and thousands of neighborhood Financial Service Center locations (the "Retail" channel), and (ii) directly through various marketing channels, such as online search engine optimization, online displays, direct mail campaigns, mobile advertising, and affiliate referral programs (the "Direct" channel).

Our B2B Services segment consists of revenues and expenses derived from (i) our partnerships with some of America's most prominent consumer and technology companies that make our banking products and services available to their consumers, partners and workforce through integration with our banking platform (the "Banking-as-a-Service", or "BaaS" channel), and (ii) a comprehensive payroll platform that we offer to corporate enterprises (the "Employer" channel) to facilitate payments for today’s workforce. Our products and services in this segment include deposit account programs, such as consumer and small business checking accounts and prepaid cards, as well as our Simply Paid Disbursements services utilized by our partners.

Our Money Movement Services segment consists of revenues and expenses generated on a per transaction basis from our services that specialize in facilitating the movement of cash on behalf of consumers and businesses, such as money processing services and tax refund processing services. Our money processing services are marketed to third-party banks, program managers, and other companies seeking cash deposit and disbursement capabilities for their customers. Those customers, including our own cardholders, can access our cash deposit and disbursement services at any of the locations within our network of retail distributors and neighborhood Financial Service Centers. We market our tax-related financial services through a network of tax preparation franchises, independent tax professionals and online tax preparation providers.

The Corporate and Other segment primarily consists of net interest income earned by our bank, eliminations of intersegment revenues and expenses, unallocated corporate expenses, and other fixed costs that are not considered when our CODM evaluates segment performance, such as salaries, wages and related benefits for our employees, professional service fees, software licenses, telephone and communication costs, rent and utilities, and insurance. We do not evaluate performance or allocate resources based on segment asset data, and therefore such information is not presented.

The change in segment presentation does not affect the financial results of our consolidated statements of operations, balance sheets or statements of cash flows as previously presented.

Accounting Policies [Abstract]

Basis of Presentation

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America, or GAAP. We consolidated our wholly-owned subsidiaries and eliminated all significant intercompany balances and transactions.

We have also prepared the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements in conformity with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X and, consequently, they do not include all of the annual disclosures required by GAAP. Reference is made to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 for additional disclosures, including a summary of our significant accounting policies. There have been no material changes to our significant accounting policies during the six months ended June 30, 2021, other than the adoption of the accounting pronouncements discussed herein. In our opinion, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments, consisting of normal and recurring items, necessary for the fair presentation of our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented.

Use of estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. Future events and their effects cannot be predicted with certainty; accordingly, accounting estimates require the exercise of judgment. These financial statements were prepared using information reasonably available as of June 30, 2021 and through the date of this report. The accounting estimates used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements may change as new events occur, as more experience is acquired, as additional information is obtained, and as our operating environment changes. Actual results may differ from these estimates due to the uncertainty around the magnitude, duration and effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, as well as other factors.

Recently adopted accounting pronouncements; Recently issued accounting pronouncements not yet adopted

Recent Accounting Pronouncements    

Recently adopted accounting pronouncements

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes (“ASU 2019-12”), which simplifies various aspects related to the accounting for income taxes. The standard removes certain exceptions to the general principles in Topic 740 and also clarifies and modifies existing guidance to improve consistent application of Topic 740. ASU 2019-12 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, including interim periods within those fiscal years. We adopted the provisions of ASU 2019-12 on January 1, 2021, the results of which did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Recently issued accounting pronouncements not yet adopted

In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 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) (“ASU 2020-06”), which simplifies an issuer’s accounting for convertible instruments and its application of the derivatives scope exception for contracts in its own equity. ASU 2020-06 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, including interim periods within those fiscal years. We are currently evaluating the provisions of ASU 2020-06, but do not expect any material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Note 2—Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848) ("ASU 2020-04"), which provides optional expedients and exceptions to GAAP requirements for modifications of debt instruments, leases, derivatives and other transactions that reference the London Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR") or another reference rate expected to be discontinued because of reference rate reform. The guidance permits entities to treat such modifications as the continuation of the original contract, without any required accounting reassessments or remeasurements. The amendments in ASU 2020-04 were effective upon issuance and may be elected over time through December 31, 2022, as reference rate reform activities occur. Upon adoption, the guidance must be applied prospectively for all eligible contract modifications. We do not expect any material impact on our consolidated financial statements as our existing revolving line of credit is based on variable rates available that we elect at the time of borrowing. See Note 9 — Debt, to these consolidated financial statements for additional information.

Fair value of financial instruments

Short-term Financial Instruments

Our short-term financial instruments consist principally of unrestricted and restricted cash and cash equivalents, settlement assets and obligations, and obligations to customers. These financial instruments are short-term in nature, and, accordingly, we believe their carrying amounts approximate their fair values. Under the fair value hierarchy, these instruments are classified as Level 1.

Investment Securities

The fair values of investment securities have been derived using methodologies referenced in Note 2–Summary of Significant Accounting Policies to the Consolidated Financial Statements of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020. Under the fair value hierarchy, our investment securities are classified as Level 2.

Loans

We determined the fair values of loans by discounting both principal and interest cash flows expected to be collected using a discount rate commensurate with the risk that we believe a market participant would consider in determining fair value. Under the fair value hierarchy, our loans are classified as Level 3.

Deposits

The fair value of demand and interest checking deposits and savings deposits is the amount payable on demand at the reporting date. We determined the fair value of time deposits by discounting expected future cash flows using market-derived rates based on our market yields on certificates of deposit, by maturity, at the measurement date. Under the fair value hierarchy, our deposits are classified as Level 2.

Contingent Consideration

The fair value of contingent consideration obligations, such as the earn-out associated with our acquisition of UniRush LLC ("UniRush") in 2017, is estimated through valuation models designed to estimate the probability of such contingent payments based on various assumptions. Estimated payments are discounted using present value techniques to arrive at an estimated fair value. Our contingent consideration payable is classified as Level 3 because we use unobservable inputs to estimate fair value, including the probability of achieving certain earnings thresholds and appropriate discount rates. Changes in fair value of contingent consideration are recorded through operating expenses.

Debt

The fair value of our revolving line of credit is based on borrowing rates currently available to a market participant for loans with similar terms or maturity. The carrying amount of our outstanding revolving line of credit approximates fair value because the base interest rate charged varies with market conditions and the credit spread is commensurate with current market spreads for issuers of similar risk. The fair value of the revolving line of credit is classified as a Level 2 liability in the fair value hierarchy.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The carrying values and fair values of certain financial instruments that were not carried at fair value, excluding short-term financial instruments for which the carrying value approximates fair value
