Pathward Financial, Inc. (Nasdaq: CASH) | Quarterly Investor Presentation20 2023 Tax Season Update Refund advances (“RAs”) and refund transfers (“RTs”) leverage Banking as a Service (“BaaS”) infrastructure and are core to Pathward’s purpose, allowing consumers quicker access to their money. • Total tax product revenue is up slightly through the six months ended March 31, 2023. • RA originations of $1.46 billion compared to $1.83 billion in the 2022 tax season. – Customer appetite for refund advances returned in 2023 after having been tempered in the 2022 tax season by remaining government stimulus funds. – Approximate average loan size of $1,382 compared to $1,263 in 2022. • Provision for tax services products increased from the prior year’s tax season primarily due to a shift in mix in Refund Advances from partnership channels to independent tax providers. Tax season at Pathward ramps up during the first fiscal quarter, peaks during the second fiscal quarter, and wraps up during the third fiscal quarter. As a result, performance for the six months ended March 31 is a better reflection on the overall performance for tax season as it alleviates timing differences between quarters.

Deposits held on Balance Sheet Pathward’s BaaS business generates fee income and low-cost deposits leading to high levels of noninterest- bearing deposits (96% of total deposits). The BaaS business’ ability to attract and maintain these low-cost deposits provides a powerful competitive advantage. Noninterest-bearing deposits as a percentage of total deposits has increased every year since 2018, from 54% in 4Q18 to 96% as of 2Q23. $1.96 billion of off-balance sheet customer deposits currently held in custody at program banks. These off- balance sheet deposits earn recordkeeping service fee income, typically reflective of the Effective Fed Funds Rate. 2Q23 deposits elevated due to seasonal tax activity.

Pathward is benefitting from the deposit optimization strategy that included transitioning away from higher cost interest-bearing wholesale deposits in favor of growing BaaS deposits. As of March 31, 2023, approximately 47% of the deposit balances were subject to variable card processing expenses, derived from contractual agreements with certain BaaS partners tied to a rate index, typically the Effective Fed Funds Rate. These costs reprice immediately upon a change in the applicable rate index, leading to an instant cost increase as compared to the earning-asset yields that will generally experience more of a lag in repricing. As of March 31, 2023, Pathward also managed $1.96 billion in off-balance sheet deposits that earned $18.2 million of fee income during the fiscal second quarter. That income is also reflective of the Effective Fed Funds Rate. Pathward Financial, Inc.

Noninterest income represents 50% of fiscal year-to- date total revenue. Majority of noninterest income fees are generated by the Company’s BaaS business line. Other major items include leasing rental income and other loan & lease fees. Pathward’s large fee income base provides stability through interest rate and credit cycles, while propelling continued revenue growth. In the first quarter of Fiscal Year 2023, the Company recognized $10 million of fee income associated with the sale of the Meta trademarks.
