Ending Serviced Deposits Increased 137% YOY to $1.6 billion

Radnor, PA., August 11, 2021 — BM Technologies Inc. (NYSE American: BMTX) (“BM Technologies,” “BMTX,” “we,” or the “Company”) one of the largest digital banking platforms in the country, today reported record results for the first half of 2021.

FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS
Q2 2021 GAAP revenues of $22.9 million, a 48% increase compared to Q2 2020. Q2 2021 core1 revenues were $22.7 million, a 46% increase compared to Q2 2020.
Q2 2021 GAAP net loss of $1.8 million due to a $3.1 million noncash loss on the revaluation of the private warrant liability.
Core earnings1 were $1.2 million in Q2 2021, or $0.10 per diluted share, compared to a core net loss of $4.1 million, or -$0.67 per diluted share in Q2 2020.
Q2 2021 Core EBITDA1 totaled $5.2 million, which increased 11x YOY; EBITDA margin was 23% in Q2 2021 compared to (3)% in Q2 2020.
Continued positive operating leverage. Q2 2021 core revenue increased $7.1 million, or 46% compared to Q2 2020, while core operating expenses (excluding depreciation and amortization) increased $1.4 million, or 9%.
Strong liquidity. Cash totaled $19.6 million at June 30, 2021. The company repaid $5.4 million of borrowings in Q2 2021; there is currently zero balance on its $10.0 million line of credit.

BUSINESS HIGHLIGHTS
Average serviced deposits totaled $1.6 billion in Q2 2021, a 126% increase compared to Q2 2020. Average new business serviced deposits increased 616% compared to Q2 2020.
Debit card spend was $828 million in Q2 2021, a 19% increase compared to Q2 2020. New business debit spend increased 91% compared to Q2 2020.

Increasing serviced deposits, debit card spend, and organic deposits are strong indicators of improving engagement and primary banking behavior.
Our high volume, low-cost customer acquisition strategy continues to yield a customer acquisition cost (CAC) below $10 per active account.2
Un-annualized revenue per 90 day active account increased 41% YOY to $45 in Q2 2021.
1 Core metrics are non-GAAP measures which exclude the effects of fair value gains and losses on our warrant liability and other items we do not consider indicative of our core operating performance. A reconciliation is included on page 8 and 9 of this release.
2 CAC is calculated based on trailing twelve month (TTM) total Marketing and Client Operations expense, net of subscription fees paid to BMTX for higher education clients, divided by TTM newly active accounts.

Approximately 200,000 new accounts opened in 1H 2021
BMTX announced a key product partnership this quarter for credit monitoring and identity protection; we also signed a Workplace Banking distribution partner, and signed agreements with 8 new colleges and universities.
BMTX recently announced plans to serve banks and credit unions with our "Banking-as-a-Service" (BaaS) product offering.

Luvleen Sidhu, BMTX’s Chair, Chief Executive Officer, and Founder commented, "We are excited to announce record results for the second quarter and first half of 2021, reflecting strong revenue growth and improving profitability. We generated $13.9M of core EBITDA in the first half of 2021, nearly four times all of 2020. We also announced several new product and distribution partnerships this quarter, positioning us well for the future. We remain excited about our business and financial outlook.”

Business Update
BMTX operates in 3 verticals: higher education and student banking, white label banking and workplace banking.

Higher Education & Student Banking
During the first half of 2021 we retained more than 99% of our higher education institutions and disbursed $6.4 billion in refunds to students, including $902 million into BankMobile Vibe Accounts held at our partner bank. Organic deposits (deposits that are not part of a school disbursement) increased 29% compared to the first half of 2020 to $1.2 billion, indicating strong primary banking behavior. The average balance per active account increased 15% YoY to approximately $1,700 and the spend per active account increased 21% YoY to approximately $1,975. We also saw an increase in positive balance savings accounts of approximately 36% YOY. We have found that savings account customers are more engaged and loyal customers.

We are excited about our continued expansion in the higher education vertical; in the second quarter we signed a contract with a partner to provide credit monitoring and identity protection services to enhance our product offering. We also signed contracts with 8 new colleges and universities across the U.S. providing 47K more students access to BankMobile Disbursements and BankMobile Vibe checking accounts annually. Additionally, we continue working towards the launch of a co-branded BankMobile Google Plex account next year, which we expect will result in more students choosing a BankMobile account to receive their refund.

"New Business" (White Label and Workplace Banking)

We continue to experience significant growth in our "new" business, with Q2 2021 year-over-year growth of 616% in average serviced deposits and 91% growth in debit card spend. We also want to highlight the significant primary account usage patterns of our most active white label account holders. In Q2 2021, highly active users (with both direct deposit and a minimum of 5 customer driven transactions per month) annualized debit card spend was nearly $17,000 annually and average deposit balances per account was over $4,000. This very attractive cohort makes up approximately 16% of active accounts, compared to 12% in the second quarter of 2020. We continue to actively work a pipeline of prospective new white label customers to offer a suite of financial services products through our proprietary technology stack. We also recently announced our plans to serve banks and credit unions with our Banking-as-a-Service” (BaaS) product offering. BMTX will help these financial institutions accelerate their digital strategies with state-of-the-art mobile and web-based banking apps and also provide back office banking operations, compliance, fraud and risk management and customer service support if needed.

In late 2020, we launched our workplace banking business. We see considerable opportunity to partner with employers, financial benefit marketplaces, and other fin-tech companies to provide financial services benefits, including competitive checking accounts, savings accounts, and lending products to employees. Our workplace

banking product includes a partnership with Prudential Financial, Inc. to provide financial wellness services; this year we announced a partnership with GoAskJay, a direct-to-consumer insurance and financial marketplace.

FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS

Core revenue is a non-GAAP measure which management believes provides investors an enhanced understanding of our business excluding the effects of items we do not consider indicative of our core operating performance; a reconciliation appears later in this release.

Interchange and card revenue increased 18% to $7.2 million in Q2 2021 driven by a 19% increase in debit spend. Core deposit servicing fees increased 102% to $10.4 million, driven by a 126% increase in average serviced deposits. Account fees declined $0.2 million, or 6%. Other revenues increased $1.0 million, primarily due to additional development revenues from a white label partner, which vary from quarter-to-quarter based on project status, costs, contract status, and milestones.

Q2 2021 GAAP expenses, including depreciation and amortization, totaled $20.7 million, an 8% increase from Q2 2020. Core operating expenses, excluding depreciation and amortization, increased 9% to $17.5 million, substantially slower than the growth in core revenues.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL RECONCILIATIONS - UNAUDITED

Certain financial measures used in this Press Release are not defined by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and as such are considered non-GAAP financial measures. Core revenues, expenses, and EBITDA exclude the effects of items we do not consider indicative of our core operating performance, including fair value mark to market income or expense associated with certain warrants. Management believes the use of core revenues, expenses, and EBITDA are appropriate to provide investors with an additional tool to evaluate the Company's ongoing business performance. Investors are cautioned that these non-GAAP financial measures may not be defined in the same manner by other companies and, as a result, may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures used by other companies. Also, these non-GAAP financial measures should not be construed as alternatives, or superior, to other measures determined in accordance with GAAP.
