TABLE OF CONTENTS

Business Overview

We are a mission driven company designed to help our members achieve financial independence in order to realize their ambitions. To us, financial independence does not mean being wealthy, but rather represents the ability of our members to have the financial means to achieve their personal objectives at each stage of life, such as owning a home, having a family, or having a career of their choice — more simply stated, to have enough money to do what they want. We were founded in 2011 and have developed a suite of financial products that offers the speed, selection, content and convenience that only an integrated digital platform can provide. In order for us to achieve our mission, we have to help people get their money right, which means providing them with the ability to borrow better, save better, spend better, invest better and protect better. Everything we do today is geared toward helping our members “Get Your Money Right” and we strive to innovate and build ways for our members to achieve this goal.

In order to help achieve our mission, we are a member-centric, everything app for digital financial services that, through our Lending and Financial Services products, allows members to borrow, save, spend, invest and protect their money. We refer to our customers as “members” and “clients” as defined under “Key Business Metrics”. We offer personal loans, student loans, home loans and related servicing and offer a variety of financial services products, such as SoFi Money, SoFi Credit Card, SoFi Crypto, SoFi Invest and SoFi Relay, that provide more daily interactions with our members, as well as products and capabilities, such as SoFi At Work, that are designed to appeal to enterprises. Lending related services that we offer through our Loan Platform Business help a broader range of borrowers to find lending solutions, through our relationships with members as well as third-party enterprise partners. Our Technology Platform supports innovation for a broad range of enterprises, with offerings that give clients the ability to create, launch and run financial products. In addition, SoFi Plus is our premium financial membership that provides benefits that span our offerings and brings together all we have to offer.

We have built a personalized area within our digital native application, which we refer to as the member home experience. The member home experience is personalized and delivers content to a member about what they must do that day in their financial life, what they should consider doing that day in their financial life, and what they could do that day in their financial life. Through the member home experience, there are significant opportunities to build frequent engagement and, to date, the member home experience has been an important driver of new product adoption. The member home experience is an important part of our strategy and our ability to use data as a competitive advantage.

To complement these products and services, we believe in establishing partnerships with other enterprises to leverage our existing capabilities to reach a broader market and in building vertically-integrated technology platforms designed to manage and deliver our suite of products and technology solutions to our members and clients in a low-cost and differentiated manner.

Our three reportable segments and their primary product and service offerings as of March 31, 2026 were as follows:

_________________

(1)Loan Platform Business includes activity related to (i) certain loans which we originate on behalf of third-party partners, (ii) referred loans which are originated by a third-party partner to which we provide pre-qualified borrower referrals, (iii) certain loans associated with our Lantern financial services marketplace platform, and (iv) servicing rights assumed from third parties. Refer to “Our Reportable Segments—Financial Services Segment” and “Our Reportable Segments—Lending Segment” for more information.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Members

We have created an innovative financial services platform designed to offer best-in-class products to meet the broad objectives of our members and the lifecycle of their financial needs. Our platform offers our members (as defined under “Key Business Metrics”) a suite of financial products and services, enabling them to borrow, save, spend, invest and protect their finances across one integrated platform, as well as personal financial management tools and benefits to complement our products. Our aim is to create a best-in-class, integrated financial services platform that will generate a virtuous cycle whereby positive member experiences will lead to new product adoption by existing members and enhanced profitability for each additional product by lowering overall member acquisition costs and increasing the lifetime value of our members. We refer to this virtuous cycle as our “Financial Services Productivity Loop”.

We believe that developing a comprehensive, long-term relationship with our members and gaining their trust is central to our success as a financial services platform. We have a digital-first financial services platform that we believe can support all of our members’ financial services needs throughout their lifetime. We believe this will lead to a competitive advantage over other financial institutions that provide a disjointed and non-seamless product experience, a lack of digital customer acquisition, subpar mobile web products instead of digital native apps and incomplete product offerings to meet a customer’s holistic financial needs.

Enterprises

In addition to benefiting our members, our products and capabilities are also designed to appeal to enterprises and have become interconnected with the SoFi platform, such as financial services institutions that subscribe to our enterprise services, third-party partners in our Loan Platform Business, and clients who utilize our technology platform services. While our enterprises are not considered members, they are important contributors to the growth of the SoFi platform, and also have their own constituents who might benefit from our products in the future.

SoFi Bank

SoFi Technologies is a bank holding company, and SoFi Bank is a nationally chartered association.

As a bank holding company, we offer checking and savings accounts, credit cards and crypto trading through SoFi Bank. We are originating all new loans within SoFi Bank, and we intend to continue to explore other products for SoFi Bank over time, including stablecoin issuance and tokenized deposits. The key current and expected financial benefits to us of operating a national bank include: (i) lowering our cost to fund loans, as we can utilize deposits held at SoFi Bank to fund loans, which generally have a lower borrowing cost of funds than warehouse and securitization financing, (ii) increasing our flexibility to hold loans on our balance sheet for longer periods, thereby enabling us to earn interest on these loans for a longer period, (iii) supporting origination volume growth by providing an alternative financing option, while also maintaining our warehouse capacity, and (iv) through deposits, providing us with a channel to obtain meaningful member data that can allow us to better serve our members’ financial needs. See Part II, Item 1A. “Risk Factors” for a discussion of certain potential risks related to being a bank holding company.

While we primarily operate in the United States, we also operate internationally in Latin America, Canada and Switzerland largely through our Technology Platform segment, as well as in Hong Kong through SoFi Holdings (Hong Kong) Limited (an investment business).

Our Reportable Segments

We conduct our business through three reportable segments: Lending, Technology Platform and Financial Services. Below is a discussion of our segments and their primary products and non-product offerings.

Lending Segment

We offer personal loans, student loans, home loans and related servicing to help our members with a variety of financial needs. We believe that our market opportunity within each of these lending channels is significant. Our lending process primarily leverages an in-application, digital borrowing experience, which we believe serves as a competitive advantage as digital lending becomes increasingly ubiquitous. Furthermore, our platform supports the full transaction lifecycle, including credit application, underwriting, approval, funding and servicing. Through data derived at loan origination and throughout the servicing process, SoFi has life-of-loan performance data on each loan in our ecosystem that we originate and on which we retain servicing, which provides a meaningful data asset. Net interest income, which we define as the difference between the

earned interest income and interest expense to finance loans, is a key component of the profitability of our Lending segment, along with fee-based revenue, which includes loan origination fees.

Personal Loans. We originate personal loans to help our members with a variety of financial needs, such as debt consolidation, home improvement projects, family planning, travel and weddings, to name a few. We offer fixed rate loans with flexible repayment terms. We generally offer loan sizes of $5,000 to $100,000, subject to legal and/or licensing requirements, with terms generally ranging from 2 to 7 years. We regularly update the annual percentage rates offered on our personal loans.

Student Loans. We operate in the student loan refinance space, with a focus on prime and

Business Overview

We are a mission driven company designed to help our members achieve financial independence in order to realize their ambitions. We were founded in 2011 and have developed a suite of financial products that offers the speed, selection, content and convenience that only an integrated digital platform can provide. Everything we do today is geared toward helping our members “Get Your Money Right” and we strive to innovate and build ways for our members to achieve this goal.

In order to help achieve our mission, we are a member-centric, one-stop shop for financial services that, through our Lending and Financial Services products, allows members to borrow, save, spend, invest and protect their money. We refer to our customers as “members” and “clients”, as defined under “Key Business Metrics”. We offer personal loans, student loans, home loans and related servicing and offer a variety of financial services products, such as SoFi Money, SoFi Credit Card, SoFi Crypto, SoFi Invest and SoFi Relay, that provide more daily interactions with our members, as well as products and capabilities, such as SoFi At Work, that are designed to appeal to enterprises. Lending related services that we offer through our Loan Platform Business help a broader range of borrowers to find lending solutions, through our relationships with members as well as third-party enterprise partners. Our Technology Platform supports innovation for a broad range of enterprises, with offerings that give clients the ability to create, launch and run financial products.

In addition, SoFi Plus is our premium financial membership that provides benefits that span our offerings and brings together all we have to offer. Membership benefits include exclusive access to preferred pricing on products, extra rewards, investment matches, complimentary financial planning, live events and more In 2025, we launched SoFi Smart Card to SoFi Plus members, a charge card secured by a SoFi Money checking and savings account.

We continue to strive to innovate and develop new products and services. During 2025, we launched global remittance services, which leverages blockchain technology to provide fast, seamless, low cost and safe international payments, in over 30 countries, including Mexico, India, Brazil and much of Europe. We also returned to crypto investing with the launch of SoFi Crypto, once again giving our members the ability to buy, sell and hold digital assets directly in the SoFi app. Lastly, we took another step forward with crypto through the launch of our own stablecoin, SoFiUSD. This launch made SoFi the first national bank to issue a stablecoin on a public, permissionless blockchain.

See Item 1. “Business—Our Reportable Segments” for a discussion of our segments and their corresponding products. The discussion below focuses on the ways in which our key products and services within each reportable segment generate revenues and/or incur expenses for the Company.

Business Highlights

SoFi is a financial services company that leverages technology to serve people and enterprises. SoFi's continuous investments in innovation and brand building led to the strongest financial performance in the history of the company, fueling significant member and product growth and paving the way for future growth. We reported a number of key financial achievements in the year ended December 31, 2025, including total net revenue of $3.6 billion, representing an increase of 35% over total net revenue in 2024. For the year ended December 31, 2025, total fee-based revenue reached a record of $1.5 billion, compared to $969.9 million in the same period of 2024, a year-over-year increase of 59%. This was driven by strong performance from our Loan Platform Business, as well as origination fee revenue, referral fee revenue, interchange fee revenue and brokerage fee revenue. Diluted earnings per share for each of the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 was $0.39. Diluted EPS for the 2024 period does not include benefits from the gain on convertible debt exchanges in the first and third quarters of 2024, but does include the tax benefit of the release of the majority of the valuation allowance against our deferred tax assets.

Lending segment contribution profit of $1.0 billion for the year ended December 31, 2025 increased 14% over 2024 with a segment contribution margin of 55%. Lending segment performance was driven by net interest income primarily driven by growth in average loan balances.

Origination volume for our Lending products increased 57%, as a result of continued strong member demand for personal loans, student loans and home loans as well as strong demand from capital markets partners. Overall, we sold, or transferred through our Loan Platform Business, more than $15.6 billion in total of personal loans, student loans and home loans during the year ended December 31, 2025. We believe that the growth opportunity for the Loan Platform Business continues to be strong.

Technology Platform segment contribution profit of $144.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2025 increased 14% over 2024, and total net revenue of $450.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2025 increased 14% over 2024. SoFi continues to diversify its Technology Platform client base. During the year, SoFi announced that Banco Nación, one of Argentina’s largest financial institutions, selected our Cyberbank Digital platform to modernize their digital banking infrastructure. SoFi announced partnerships with several more U.S. consumer brands, as we continue to work with a broader range of companies to help bring innovative programs that drive greater loyalty and engagement with their customers.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Within our Financial Services segment, contribution profit of $792.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2025 significantly improved compared to a contribution profit of $307.0 million in 2024. Total net revenue of $1.5 billion for the year ended December 31, 2025 increased 88% over 2024. During the year, the Loan Platform Business generated $575.9 million in loan platform fees, driven by $11.0 billion of personal loans originated on behalf of third parties, as well as referrals. Additionally, our Loan Platform Business generated $12.3 million in servicing cash flow which is recorded in our Lending segment. In total, our Loan Platform Business added $588.3 million to our consolidated adjusted net revenue across these two segments. We also continued to see healthy growth in interchange fee revenue in the year ended December 31, 2025, up 71% year-over-year, driven by increased spend across Money and Credit Card. We plan to continue to pursue opportunities to increase fee-based revenue.

We achieved continued strong growth in member deposits and strong deposit contribution from direct deposit members, ending the year with $37.5 billion of total deposits as of December 31, 2025, allowing us to maintain access to diversified sources of funding. Total deposit funds grew over $11.5 billion during the year ended December 31, 2025. We continue to provide our members with access to expanded FDIC insurance coverage through a network of participating banks in our Insured Deposit Program, further enhancing the benefits of our offering to our members.

The strength of our results underscores our belief that our suite of differentiated products and services provides the foundation for a diversified business that can endure through market cycles as well as in the face of exogenous factors. For instance, our access to multiple channels of funding, including deposit and loan warehouse funding, provides increased optionality in sourcing liquidity through different environments and periods of capital markets volatility, as well as increases our flexibility to capture additional net interest margin and optimize returns. This typically provides more stable earnings in any macroeconomic environment but is particularly important during times of macroeconomic volatility.

Lending Segment

Net interest income, which we define as the difference between the earned interest income and interest expense to finance loans, is a key component of the profitability of our Lending segment. Lending segment net interest income represents the difference between interest income earned on our loans and an FTP charge for the segment’s use of funds to originate loans, which can fluctuate based on changes in interest rates, funding curves, the composition of our balance sheet and the availability of capital.

Technology Platform Segment

We earn technology products and solutions fees for providing an integrated platform as a service for financial and non-financial institutions. Many of our Technology Platform segment contracts are multi-year contracts. In certain of our contracts, we provide for a variety of integrated platform services, which vary by client and are either non-cancellable or cancellable with a substantive payment. Pricing structures under these contracts are typically volume-based, or a combination of activity and volume-based, and payment terms are predominantly monthly in arrears. Many of these contracts contain minimum monthly payments, which may result in credits if we do not meet the agreed upon monthly service levels. We also earn subscription and service fees for providing software licenses and associated services, including implementation, maintenance and subsequent development work. We charge a recurring subscription fee for the software license and related maintenance services. Other software-related services are billed on a periodic basis as the services are provided. Certain arrangements for software and related services contain a provision for a fixed upfront payment.

Financial Services Segment

We earn revenues, both net interest income and fee-based, in connection with our Financial Services segment primarily in the ways listed below. See Note 20. Business Segment and Geographic Information and Note 3. Revenue to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information on the FTP framework and Financial Services revenue from contracts with customers. Certain products, such as our complementary product SoFi Relay, do not provide direct sources of revenue. Revenue is driven primarily by variability in product utilization by members, as well as volume of transactions related to arrangements that we enter into with enterprise partners as outlined below.

•Net interest income: Net interest income is a key component of the profitability of our Financial Services segment as it relates primarily to our SoFi Money and credit card products. Net interest income on SoFi Money is based on interest income determined using our FTP framework, net of interest expense based on the interest rate offered to our members on their deposits. Net interest income on credit card is based on the contractual interest included in credit card agreements, net of interest expense as determined using the FTP framework.

•Loan Platform Business, other fees: Through our Loan Platform Business, we originate loans on behalf of third-party partners, for which we receive a specified fee upon sale. The fee includes components for a fixed price per loan and

96

SoFi Technologies, Inc.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

recognition of servicing assets. These fees accounted for 65% of our total Financial Services noninterest income for the year ended December 31, 2025.

•Referral fees: Through strategic partnerships, we earn a specified referral fee in connection with referral activity we facilitate through our platform, inclusive of referral fees generated through our Loan Platform Business for providing pre-qualified borrower referrals (referred loans) to a third-party partner who separately contracts with a loan originator. Referral fees are paid to us by third-party partners that offer services to end users who do not use one of our product offerings, but who were referred to the partners through our platform. Our referral fee is calculated as either a fixed price per successful referral, a percentage of the funded loan, or a percentage of the transaction volume between the enterprise partners and referred consumers. Total referral fees, inclusive of referral fees generated through our Loan Platform Business, accounted for 12% of our total Financial Services noninterest income for the year ended December 31, 2025.

•Interchange fees: We earn interchange fees from our SoFi-branded debit cards and credit cards. These fees are remitted by merchants and represent a percentage of the underlying transaction value processed through a payment network. We engage a card association and enter into contracts that establish the shared economics of SoFi-branded transaction cards. Interchange fees accounted for 15% of our total Financial Services noninterest income for the year ended December 31, 2025.

•Brokerage fees: We earn brokerage fees primarily from our share lending and payment for order flow arrangements related to our SoFi Invest product, in which we benefit through a negotiated multi-year revenue sharing arrangement, since our members' brokerage activity drives the share lending and payment for order flow volume. Brokerage fees accounted for 5% of our total Financial Services noninterest income for the year ended December 31, 2025.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This Annual Report on Form 10-K presents information about certain non-GAAP financial measures provided as supplements to the results provided in accordance with GAAP. Our management and Board of Directors use these non-GAAP measures, to evaluate our operating performance, formulate business plans, help better assess our overall liquidity position, and make strategic decisions, including those relating to operating expenses and the allocation of internal resources. Accordingly, we believe that these non-GAAP measures provide useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating our operating results in the same manner as our management and Board of Directors. These non-GAAP measures have limitations as analytical tools, and should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, the analysis of other GAAP financial measures. Other companies may not use these non-GAAP measures or may use similar measures that are defined in a different manner. Therefore, our non-GAAP measures may not be directly comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies.

Adjusted Net Revenue

Adjusted net revenue is a non-GAAP measure. Adjusted net revenue is defined as total net revenue, adjusted to exclude the fair value changes in servicing rights and residual interests classified as debt due to valuation inputs and assumptions changes, which relate only to our Lending segment, as well as gains and losses on extinguishment of debt. We adjust total net revenue to exclude these items, as they are non-cash charges that are not realized during the period or not indicative of our core operating performance, and therefore positive or negative changes do not impact the cash available to fund our operations. Management believes this measure is useful because it enables management and investors to assess our underlying operating performance and cash available to fund our operations. In addition, management uses this measure to better decide on the proper expenses to authorize for each of our operating segments, to ultimately help achieve target contribution profit margins.

(1)Reflects changes in fair value inputs and assumptions on servicing rights, including conditional prepayment, default rates and discount rates. These assumptions are highly sensitive to market interest rate changes and are not indicative of our performance or results of operations. Moreover, these non-cash charges are unrealized during the period and, therefore, have no impact on our cash flows from operations.

(2)Reflects changes in fair value inputs and assumptions on residual interests classified as debt, including conditional prepayment, default rates and discount rates. When third parties finance our consolidated securitization VIEs by purchasing residual interests, we receive proceeds at the time of the closing of the securitization and, thereafter, pass along contractual cash flows to the residual interest owner. These residual debt obligations are measured at fair value on a recurring basis, but they have no impact on our initial financing proceeds, our future obligations to the residual interest owner (because future residual interest claims are limited to contractual securitization collateral cash flows), or the general operations of our business.

(3)Reflects gain on extinguishment of debt. Gains and losses are recognized during the period of extinguishment for the difference between the net carrying amount of debt extinguished and the fair value of equity securities issued.

Adjusted Contribution Margin and Incremental Adjusted Contribution Margin — Lending

Adjusted contribution margin and incremental adjusted contribution margin are non-GAAP measures and relate only to our Lending segment. Adjusted contribution margin is defined as segment contribution profit for the Lending segment, divided by adjusted net revenue for the Lending segment, a non-GAAP measure. Incremental adjusted contribution margin is defined as the change in segment contribution profit for our Lending segment, divided by change in adjusted net revenue for the Lending segment. See “Adjusted Net Revenue” above for a reconciliation of Lending segment adjusted net revenue.

Management believes adjusted contribution margin metrics are useful because they enable management and investors to assess the underlying operating performance of our Lending segment, by removing the impact of changes in volume over periods to present a comparable view of segment contribution profit, which is a measure of the direct profitability of each of our reportable segments, as a percentage of segment adjusted net revenue for the Lending segment during each period.

Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin and Incremental Adjusted EBITDA Margin

Adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin and incremental adjusted EBITDA margin are non-GAAP measures. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income, adjusted to exclude, as applicable: (i) corporate borrowing-based interest expense (our adjusted EBITDA measure is not adjusted for warehouse or securitization-based interest expense, nor deposit interest expense and finance lease liability interest expense, as these are direct operating expenses), (ii) income tax expense (benefit), (iii) depreciation and amortization, (iv) share-based expense (inclusive of equity-based payments to non-employees), (v) restructuring charges, (vi) impairment expense (inclusive of goodwill impairments and property, equipment and software abandonments), (vii) transaction-related expenses, (viii) foreign currency impacts related to operations in highly inflationary

countries, (ix) fair value changes in each of servicing rights and residual interests classified as debt due to valuation assumptions, (x) gain on extinguishment of debt, and (xi) other charges, as appropriate, that are not expected to recur and are not indicative of our core operating performance.

Adjusted EBITDA margin is computed as adjusted EBITDA divided by adjusted net revenue. Incremental adjusted EBITDA margin is defined as the change in adjusted EBITDA, divided by change in adjusted net revenue. See “Adjusted Net Revenue” above for a reconciliation of this non-GAAP measure.

Management believes adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin and incremental adjusted EBITDA margin are useful measures for period-over-period comparisons of our business. These measures enable management and investors to assess our core operating performance or results of operations by removing the effects of certain non-cash items and charges, as well as the impact of changes in volume over periods as applicable. In addition, management uses these measures to help evaluate cash flows generated from operations and the extent of additional capital, if any, required to invest in strategic initiatives.

___________________

(1)Our adjusted EBITDA measure adjusts for corporate borrowing-based interest expense, as these expenses are a function of our capital structure. Corporate borrowing-based interest expense includes interest on our revolving credit facility, as well as interest expense and the amortization of debt discount and debt issuance costs on our convertible notes.

(2)The income tax expense recognized in 2025 is primarily attributable to the Company’s profitability, partially offset by discrete tax benefits for stock compensation recorded during the year. Our income tax position in 2024 was primarily due to the release in the fourth quarter of a $258 million valuation allowance against certain deferred tax assets based on our reassessment of their realizability. Income taxes in 2023 were primarily attributable to income tax benefits from foreign losses in jurisdictions with net deferred tax liabilities related to Technisys, offset by income tax expense associated with the profitability of SoFi Bank in state jurisdictions where separate filings are required, as well as federal taxes where our tax credits and loss carryforwards may be limited. See Note 17. Income Taxes to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.

(3)Restructuring charges in 2025 and 2024 relate to legal entity restructuring. Restructuring charges in 2023 primarily included employee-related wages, benefits and severance associated with a small reduction in headcount in our Technology Platform segment in the first quarter of 2023 and expenses in the fourth quarter of 2023 related to a reduction in headcount across the Company, which do not reflect expected future operating expenses and are not indicative of our core operating performance.

(4)Impairment expense in 2023 includes $247,174 related to goodwill impairment, and $1,243 related to a sublease arrangement, which are not indicative of our core operating performance.

(5)Foreign currency charges reflect the impacts of highly inflationary accounting for our operations in Argentina, which are related to our Technology Platform segment and commenced in the first quarter of 2022 with the Technisys Merger.

(6)Transaction-related expenses in 2024 and 2023 included financial advisory and professional services costs associated with our acquisition of Wyndham.

(7)Reflects changes in fair value inputs and assumptions, including market servicing costs, conditional prepayment, default rates and discount rates. This non-cash change is unrealized during the period and, therefore, has no impact on our cash flows from operations. As such, these positive and negative changes in fair value attributable to assumption changes are adjusted out of net income to provide management and financial users with better visibility into the earnings available to finance our operations.

(8)Reflects changes in fair value inputs and assumptions, including conditional prepayment, default rates and discount rates. When third parties finance our consolidated VIEs through purchasing residual interests, we receive proceeds at the time of the securitization close and, thereafter, pass along contractual

cash flows to the residual interest owner. These obligations are measured at fair value on a recurring basis, which has no impact on our initial financing proceeds, our future obligations to the residual interest owner (because future residual interest claims are limited to contractual securitization collateral cash flows), or the general operations of our business. As such, these positive and negative non-cash changes in fair value attributable to assumption changes are adjusted out of net income to provide management and financial users with better visibility into the earnings available to finance our operations.

(9)Reflects gain on extinguishment of debt. Gains and losses are recognized during the period of extinguishment for the difference between the net carrying amount of debt extinguished and the fair value of equity securities issued.

Adjusted Net Income (Loss), Adjusted Net Income Margin, Incremental Adjusted Net Income Margin and Adjusted EPS

Adjusted net income (loss), adjusted net income margin, incremental adjusted net income margin and adjusted diluted earnings (loss) per share are non-GAAP measures. Adjusted net income (loss) is defined as net income (loss), adjusted to exclude, as applicable, goodwill impairment expense and certain income tax benefits that are not expected to recur and are not indicative of our core operating performance.

Adjusted diluted earnings (loss) per share (“adjusted EPS”) is a non-GAAP financial measure that adjusts GAAP diluted earnings (loss) per share. Adjusted EPS is computed by dividing net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders, adjusted to exclude, as applicable, goodwill impairment expense and certain income tax benefits that are not expected to recur and are not indicative of our core operating performance, by the diluted weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period, excluding the dilutive impact of the 2026 and 2029 convertible notes under the if-converted method for which the 2026 and 2029 capped call transactions, respectively, would deliver cash or shares to offset dilution.

Adjusted net income margin is computed as adjusted net income (loss) divided by adjusted net revenue. Incremental adjusted net income margin is defined as the change in adjusted net income (loss), divided by change in adjusted net revenue. See “Adjusted Net Revenue” above for a reconciliation of this non-GAAP measure.

Management believes adjusted net income (loss), adjusted net income margin, incremental adjusted net income margin and adjusted EPS are useful because they enable management and investors to assess our core operating performance or results of operations, by removing the effects of certain non-cash items and charges to present a comparable view for period over period comparisons of our business.

(1)In the fourth quarter of 2023, we transferred the crypto services provided by SoFi Digital Assets, LLC, and began closing existing digital assets accounts and removing the account from Invest products. This process was completed in the first quarter of 2024. During 2025, we returned to crypto investing with the launch of SoFi Crypto.

See “Summary Results by Segment” for additional metrics we review at the segment level.

Members

We refer to our customers as “members”. We define a member as someone who has a lending relationship with us through origination and/or ongoing servicing, opened a financial services account, linked an external account to our platform or signed up for our credit score monitoring service. Our members have access to our CFPs, our member events, our content, educational material, news, and our tools and calculators, which are provided at no cost to the member. Additionally, our mobile application and website have a member home experience that is personalized and delivers content to a member about what they must do that day in their financial life, what they should consider doing that day in their financial life, and what they can do that day in their financial life. Beginning in the first quarter of 2024, we aligned our methodology for calculating member and product metrics with our member and product definitions to include co-borrowers, co-signers, and joint- and co-account holders, as applicable. Quarterly amounts for prior periods were determined to be immaterial and were not recast.

Once someone becomes a member, they are always considered a member unless they are removed in accordance with our terms of service, in which case, we adjust our total number of members. This could occur for a variety of reasons—including fraud or pursuant to certain legal processes—and, as our terms of service evolve together with our business practices, product offerings and applicable regulations, our grounds for removing members from our total member count could change. The determination that a member should be removed in accordance with our terms of service is subject to an evaluation process, following the completion, and based on the results, of which, relevant members and their associated products are removed from our total member count in the period in which such evaluation process concludes. However, depending on the length of the evaluation process, that removal may not take place in the same period in which the member was added to our member count or the same period in which the circumstances leading to their removal occurred. For this reason, our total member count may not yet reflect adjustments that may be made once ongoing evaluation processes, if any, conclude.

We view members as an indication not only of the size and a measurement of growth of our business, but also as a measure of the significant value of the data we have collected over time. The data we collect from our members helps us to, among other things: (i) assess loan life performance data on each loan in our ecosystem, which can inform risk-based interest rates that we can offer our members, (ii) understand our members’ spending behavior to identify and suggest other products we offer that may align with the members’ financial needs, and (iii) enhance our opportunities to sell additional products to our members, as our members represent a vital source of marketing opportunities. When we provide additional products to members, it helps improve our unit economics per member, as we save on marketing costs that we would otherwise incur to attract new members. It also increases the lifetime value of an individual member. This in turn enhances our Financial Services Productivity Loop.

Member growth is generally an indicator of future revenue, but is not directly correlated with revenues, since not all members who sign up for one of our products fully utilize or continue to use our products, and not all of our products (such as our complimentary product, SoFi Relay) provide direct sources of revenue.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Since our inception through December 31, 2025, we have served approximately 13.6 million members who have used approximately 20.2 million products on the SoFi platform.

Total Products

Total products refers to the aggregate number of lending and financial services products that our members have selected on our platform since our inception through the reporting date, whether or not the members are still registered for such products. Total products is a primary indicator of the size and reach of our Lending and Financial Services segments. Management relies on total products metrics to understand the effectiveness of our member acquisition efforts and to gauge the propensity for members to use more than one product.

In our Lending segment, total products refers to the number of personal loans, student loans and home loans that have been originated through our platform through the reporting date, inclusive of loans which we originate as part of our Loan Platform Business, whether or not such loans have been paid off. If a member has multiple loan products of the same loan product type, such as two personal loans, that is counted as a single product. However, if a member has multiple loan products across loan product types, such as one personal loan and one home loan, that is counted as two products. The account of a co-borrower or co-signer is not considered a separate lending product.

In our Financial Services segment, total products refers to the number of SoFi Money accounts (inclusive of checking and savings accounts held at SoFi Bank and cash management accounts), SoFi Invest accounts, SoFi Credit Card accounts (including accounts with a zero dollar balance at the reporting date), referred loans (which are originated by a third-party partner to which we provide pre-qualified borrower referrals), SoFi At Work accounts, SoFi Relay accounts (with either credit score monitoring enabled or external linked accounts), and SoFi Crypto accounts that have been opened through our platform through the reporting date. Checking and savings accounts are considered one account within our total products metric. Our SoFi Invest service is composed of two products: active investing accounts and robo-advisory accounts. Our members can select any one or combination of the types of SoFi Invest products. If a member has multiple SoFi Invest products of the same account type, such as two active investing accounts, that is counted as a single product. However, if a member has multiple SoFi Invest products across account types, such as one active investing account and one robo-advisory account, those separate account types are considered separate products. The account of a joint- or co-account holder is considered a separate financial services product. In the event a member is removed in accordance with our terms of service, as discussed under “Members” above, the member’s associated products are also removed.

Product growth is generally an indicator of future revenue, but is not directly correlated with revenues, since not all members who sign up for one of our products immediately or fully utilize or continue to use our products, and not all of our products (such as our complimentary product, SoFi Relay) provide direct sources of revenue. Further, product growth may not directly correlate with expense growth as a result of the effects of the Financial Services Productivity Loop.

spending balances, make debit transactions and rely upon real-time authorizations, all of which result in revenues for the Technology Platform segment. We do not measure total accounts for other products and solutions for which the revenue model is not primarily dependent upon being a fully integrated, stand-ready service.

Key Factors Affecting Operating Results

Our future operating results and cash flows are dependent upon a number of opportunities, challenges and other factors, including our loan origination volume, financial services products and member activity on our platform, growth in technology platform clients, competition and industry trends, general economic conditions and our ability to optimize our national bank charter.

Origination Volume

Our Lending segment is our largest segment, comprising 51%, 56% and 65% of total net revenue during the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively. We are dependent upon the addition of new members and new activity from existing members to generate origination volume, which we believe is a contributor to Lending segment net revenue. We believe we have a high-quality loan portfolio, as indicated by our Lending segment weighted average origination FICO score of 749 during the year ended December 31, 2025.

We also originate and sell loans in support of our Loan Platform Business, through which we provide lending related services to third-party partners. We maintain the same lending relationship with borrowers across all loans that we originate, inclusive of those originated on behalf of a third-party partner and as such, reflect these products within our Lending segment total products. This enables borrowers to gain access to all the benefits of becoming a SoFi member, and enhances our opportunities to sell additional products from across our platform to these members. Revenue from the Loan Platform Business is fee-based.

See “Industry Trends and General Economic Conditions” for the impact of specific economic factors on origination volume.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Member Growth and Activity

We have invested heavily in our platform and are dependent on continued member growth, as well as our ability to generate additional revenues from our existing members using additional products and services. Member growth and activity is critical to our ability to increase our scale and earn a return on our technology and product investments. Growth in members and member activity will depend heavily on our ability to continue to offer attractive products and services at sustainable costs and our continued member acquisition and marketing efforts.

Product Offerings

Our aim is to develop and offer a best-in-class integrated financial services platform with products that meet the broad objectives of our members and the lifecycle of their financial needs. We have invested, and continue to invest, heavily in the development, improvement and marketing of our suite of lending and financial services products and are dependent on continued growth in the number of products selected by our members, as well as our ability to build trust and reliability between our members and our platform to reinforce the effects of the Financial Services Productivity Loop. In order to deliver on our strategy, we aim to foster positive member experiences designed to lead to more product adoption by existing members, leading to enhanced profitability for each additional product by lowering overall member acquisition costs.

Galileo Account Growth

Galileo primarily provides technology platform services to financial and non-financial institutions, which enabled us to diversify our business from a primarily consumer-based business to also serve enterprises that rely upon Galileo’s integrated platform as a service to serve their clients. We are dependent on growth in the number of accounts at Galileo, which is an indication of the amount of users that are dependent upon the technology platform for a variety of products and services, including virtual card products, virtual wallets, peer-to-peer and bank-to-bank transfers, early paychecks and relying on real-time authorizations, all of which generate revenue for Galileo.

Operating as a Bank

A key element of our long-term strategy included securing a national bank charter, which we acquired in the first quarter of 2022 and began operating SoFi Bank (formerly Golden Pacific), and SoFi Technologies became a bank holding company. Operating as a bank allows for expanded access to multiple channels of funding, including deposits through SoFi Bank and borrowing capacity through the FHLB and Federal Reserve, which provides increased optionality in sourcing liquidity through different environments and periods of capital markets volatility, as well as increases our flexibility to capture additional net interest margin and optimize returns. Since acquiring our bank license, we have shifted and continue to expect our funding mix to be primarily deposit funding, which generally has a lower cost of funds than warehouse financing.

See Part I, Item 1. “Company Overview—SoFi Bank” and “Government Supervision and Regulation” for a discussion of the key expected financial benefits to us of operating a national bank and discussion of supervision and regulation to which we are subject. See Part I, Item 1A. “Risk Factors” for discussion of certain potential risks related to being a bank holding company.

Industry Trends and General Economic Conditions

Our results of operations have historically been resilient to economic downturns but in the future may be impacted by the strength of the overall economy and its effect on key performance drivers such as unemployment, inflation and consumer spending. As general economic conditions improve or deteriorate, the amount of consumer disposable income tends to fluctuate, which in turn impacts consumer spending levels and the willingness of consumers to take out loans to finance purchases or invest in financial assets. Specific economic factors, such as interest rate levels, changes in monetary and related policies, unemployment rates, inflation and consumer confidence, may also influence consumer spending, saving, investing and borrowing patterns. Liquidity and robustness of capital markets may influence both benchmark interest rates and credit spreads, thereby similarly influencing consumer behavior.

The Federal Reserve decreased the benchmark interest rate in September, October and December 2025, each time by 0.25%. Markets are currently pricing in some degree of continued easing over 2026, although the timing of such cuts will be largely determined by the combination of inflation persistence, labor market softness, and the political and leadership dynamics of the Federal Reserve. Stubborn inflation could cause rising interest rates and unfavorably impact demand for refinancing loan products. In addition, if interest rates were to rise unexpectedly or too quickly, or macroeconomic conditions deteriorate, it could have a negative impact on the overall economic growth and the state of the consumer.

Economic and market volatility may also adversely impact our liquidity, results of operations and financial condition. We have continued to see strong demand for our deposits as a result of our competitive interest rate offering and access to expanded FDIC insurance coverage through a network of participating banks in our Insured Deposit Program. Our credit trends continued to be strong in 2025 after seeing delinquencies peak over one year ago in the first quarter of 2024. Annualized charge-off rates decreased year-over-year across several portfolios, reflecting improvements in overall credit quality. Changes or uncertainty persists with respect to the U.S. presidential administration, governmental policies and regulations, and evolving priorities and guidance, and may adversely impact our members, our technology platform clients, our counterparties, and our operations, earnings and capital. Negative changes to macroeconomic conditions may result in decreased demand for our products, increased operating costs and negatively impact our results of operations.

Fair Value of Loans

We measure our personal loans, student loans and home loans at fair value. Our fair value adjustments on loans impact our consolidated results of operations and include adjustments related to loans originated during the period, loans held at the balance sheet date, as well as gains (losses) on loans sold or repurchased during the period. Fair value adjustments made in each reporting period are impacted by factors such as, among others, interest rates, weighted average coupon, credit spreads, actual and estimated losses, prepayment speeds, duration and previous loan sale execution on similar loans. In determining our fair value assumptions, we incorporate recent data impacting the capital markets, as well as factors specific to us. Changes in these factors, either positive or negative, can have a material impact on our results of operations.

The following table summarizes the significant inputs to the fair value model for personal and student loans:

Personal LoansStudent Loans
December 31, 2025September 30, 2025December 31, 2025September 30, 2025

Weighted average discount rate4.46%4.55%3.89%3.90%

___________________

(1)Represents the average coupon rate on loans held on balance sheet, weighted by unpaid principal balance outstanding at the balance sheet date.

As of the fourth quarter of 2025 relative to the third quarter of 2025, we observed the following trends:

•The weighted average coupon rate on personal loans was flat, which reflects the impacts of increased originations and rate reduction passed on to borrowers related to benchmark rate reductions during the fourth quarter.

•The weighted average conditional prepayment rate on student loans decreased by 6 bps, reflecting the impact of expected changes in prepayments.

•The weighted average discount rates on personal loans and student loans decreased by 9 bps and 1 basis point, respectively. For personal loans, our discount rate assumptions decreased in the fourth quarter due to benchmark interest rates declining by 8 bps, along with credit spreads tightening by 1 basis point. For student loans, our discount rate assumptions decreased in the fourth quarter due to credit spreads tightening by 6 bps, partially offset by benchmark interest rates increasing by 5 bps. Credit spread changes are indicated by asset-backed security and secondary markets.

•Annualized net charge-off rates on personal loans in the fourth quarter of 2025 were 2.80%, which remained lower than the assumed weighted average default rates in our fair value model of 4.46%. Personal loan charge-offs during each of the quarters of 2025 were impacted by delinquent loan sales of $359.9 million of aggregate unpaid principal balance. Annualized net charge-off rates on student loans in the fourth quarter of 2025 of 0.76% were higher than the assumed weighted average default rates in our fair value model of 0.68%. The increase in the student loan net charge-off rate was primarily a result of strategically repurchased certain seasoned loans during 2025 that had a higher charge-off rate, in line with our expectations. Our fair value assumption for annual default rate incorporates fair value markdowns on loans beginning when they are 10 days or more delinquent, with additional markdowns at 30 days, 60 days and 90 days past due.

The combination of these and other factors, including in period originations, resulted in fair value gains recognized on our student loans portfolio and fair value losses on our personal loans portfolio during the fourth quarter of 2025.

Student Lending

We expect we may continue to see an increase in student loan refinancing volume as borrowers may look to refinance to either a lower rate if interest rates continue to decline or extend the loan term given the high interest rate environment compared to recent historical periods. However, we expect that the timing and impact to our student loan refinancing product will largely depend on other factors, including executive actions by the U.S. presidential administration, the interest rate environment and how competitive our student loan refinancing products are compared to our competitors and macroeconomic factors.

Changes in law, regulations or governmental policies related to federal or private student loans could impact demand for our student loan products and our business in ways that are difficult to predict. For example, in the past, the government has provided relief measures for federal student loan borrowers, including, among others, a federal student loan payment moratorium and debt forgiveness measures. While student loan repayments resumed in October 2023 for certain federal student loans, in May 2025, defaulted borrowers risked garnished wages, seized tax refunds, and reduced Social Security benefits (although these involuntary collections were delayed in January 2026). In July 2025, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (Pub. L. No. 119-21) (“OBBB”) was signed into law, which among other provisions, eliminates Grad PLUS loans and imposes lower borrowing limits and restrictions on Parent PLUS loans, starting in July 2026, and establishes new repayment assistance plans. In August 2025, the Department of Education issued proposed rules that would narrow employer eligibility under the Public Service Loan Forgiveness program. We expect these changes could lead to incremental opportunities for SoFi’s student loan products; however, all such outcomes are highly uncertain.

Key Components of Results of Operations

Net Interest Income

Net interest income primarily reflects the excess of interest income earned on our loans over the interest expense incurred to fund such loans. Net interest income is impacted by loan origination volume, the level of securitization activity, the amount of time we hold loans on our consolidated balance sheet and the volume of member deposits, as well as prevailing interest rates, which impact the rates we receive on our loans and securitization-related investments in bonds and residual interest positions, and the rates we incur from our funding sources including our warehouse facilities, securitization debt and member deposits at SoFi Bank. We also incur interest expense related to our revolving credit facility and convertible notes, as well as on our convertible notes in the form of amortization of debt issuance costs and original issue discount.

Noninterest Income

Noninterest income primarily consists of: (i) fee-based revenue recognized from contracts with customers, which primarily relates to our technology products and solutions revenues and the growth and expansion of our financial services offerings, inclusive of referral fees generated through our Loan Platform Business for providing pre-qualified borrower referrals (referred loans) to be originated by a third-party partner, (ii) fees earned upon the sale of loans originated on behalf of third party partners through our Loan Platform Business, (iii) loan origination fees, whereby a borrower may optionally elect to pay origination fees to qualify for a lower annual percentage rate, (iv) fair value changes in loans while we hold them on our consolidated balance sheet and our securitization activities, inclusive of our hedging activities, (v) gains on sales of loans transferred into the securitization or whole loan sale channels, (vi) the income we receive from our loan servicing activities, as well as the assumption of servicing rights from third parties, (vii) gains and losses on non-securitization investments, and (viii) gains and losses on extinguishment of debt.

Noninterest Expense

Noninterest expense primarily relates to the following categories of expenses: (i) technology and product development, (ii) sales and marketing, (iii) cost of operations, and (iv) general and administrative. Certain costs are included within each of these line items, such as compensation and benefits-related expense (inclusive of share-based compensation expense), professional services, depreciation and amortization, and occupancy-related costs. We allocate certain costs to each of these categories based on department-level headcounts. We generally expect these expenses to increase in absolute dollars as our business continues to grow. Noninterest expense also includes goodwill impairment, related to the Technology Platform reporting unit in 2023.

Directly Attributable Expenses

As presented within “Summary Results by Segment”, in our determination of the contribution profit (loss) for our reportable segments, we allocate certain expenses that are directly attributable to the segment. Directly attributable expenses primarily include compensation and benefits and sales and marketing, inclusive of member incentives, and vary based on the amount of activity within each segment. Directly attributable expenses also include loan origination and servicing expenses, professional services, product fulfillment and lead generation. Expenses are attributed to the reportable segments using either direct costs of the segment or labor costs that can be attributed based upon the allocation of employee time for individual products.

(1)Average balances were calculated on daily carrying balances.

(2)Interest expense on other debt primarily includes debt issuance and discount expense, as well as interest expense on the revolving credit facility and convertible senior notes.

(3)Net interest income is calculated as the excess of total interest income on interest-earning assets over total interest expense on interest-bearing liabilities.

(4)Net interest margin is calculated as net interest income divided by total average interest-earning assets.

2025 vs. 2024. Net interest income increased by $502.5 million, or 29%, during the year ended December 31, 2025 compared to the year ended December 31, 2024, and net interest margin increased by 5 basis points. Average interest-earning assets increased by 28% and average yields decreased by 59 basis points overall, while average interest-bearing liabilities increased by 28% and the average cost of interest-bearing liabilities decreased by 70 basis points.

The increases in net interest income were primarily driven by (i) higher interest income from personal loans and student loans of $539.9 million, which was primarily a function of increases in the average balance and origination volume, as well as longer loan holding periods, (ii) higher interest income from investment securities of $39.7 million primarily

attributable to higher average balances, and (iii) lower interest expense on warehouse facilities of $9.3 million primarily attributable to lower rates. These items were partially offset by (i) higher interest expense on deposits of $83.9 million, primarily attributable to higher average balances, (ii) lower interest income on interest-bearing deposits with banks of $18.0 million primarily attributable to lower rates.

2024 vs. 2023. Net interest income increased by $454.7 million, or 36%, during the year ended December 31, 2024 compared to the year ended December 31, 2023, and net interest margin decreased by 8 basis points. Average interest-earning assets increased by 38% and average yields decreased by 7 basis points overall, while average interest-bearing liabilities increased by 44% and the average cost of interest-bearing liabilities decreased by 17 basis points.

The increases in net interest income were primarily driven by (i) higher interest income from personal loans and student loans of $602.1 million, which was primarily a function of increases in the average balance and origination volume, as well as longer loan holding periods, (ii) higher interest income from investment securities of $54.2 million primarily attributable to higher average balances, (iii) higher interest income from interest-bearing deposits with banks of $42.4 million, primarily attributed to higher average balances, and (iv) lower interest expense on warehouse facilities and securitizations of $124.9 million primarily attributable to lower average balances, which is reflective of our continued funding mix shift towards deposit funding. These items were partially offset by higher interest expense on deposits of $422.3 million primarily attributable to higher average balances.

Total noninterest income increased by $436.0 million, or 45%, for the year ended December 31, 2025 compared to the year ended December 31, 2024, as described below.

Loan Origination, Sales, Securitizations and Servicing

2025 vs. 2024. Loan origination, sales, securitizations and servicing decreased by $35.2 million, or 13%, for the year ended December 31, 2025 compared to the year ended December 31, 2024. The decrease was driven primarily by losses during the 2025 period compared to gains in the 2024 period on interest rate swap positions primarily related to student loans and personal loans, lower fair value gains on personal loans and net higher personal and student loan write-offs. These decreases were partially offset by higher fair value gains on student loans, higher origination fees and higher fair value gains on home loans in the 2025 period primarily impacted by increased loan origination volume.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

2024 vs. 2023. Loan origination, sales, securitizations and servicing decreased by $131.0 million, or 32%, for the year ended December 31, 2024 compared to the year ended December 31, 2023. The decrease was driven primarily by higher personal and student loan net charge-offs of $172.5 million, primarily driven by growth in the portfolios and elevated charge off rates, lower fair value gains on personal loans, which were primarily impacted by smaller decreases in discount rate assumptions during 2024, lower fair value gains on student loans, which were primarily impacted by higher discount rate assumptions, and gains on student loan, personal loan and risk retention interest rate swap positions during 2024 compared to losses in 2023, primarily driven by larger increases in interest rates in the 2024 period. Partially offsetting these decreases were higher origination fees primarily related to a product feature offered on personal loans, whereby a borrower may optionally elect to pay origination fees to qualify for a lower annual percentage rate.

Technology Products and Solutions

2025 vs. 2024. Technology products and solutions increased by $10.1 million, or 3%, for the year ended December 31, 2025 compared to the year ended December 31, 2024. The increase was driven by increased processing and service arrangement activity among our integrated technology solutions clients. During 2025, a large client fully transitioned off the platform.

2024 vs. 2023. Technology products and solutions increased by $26.8 million, or 8%, for the year ended December 31, 2024 compared to the year ended December 31, 2023. The increase was driven by increased processing and service arrangement activity among our integrated technology solutions clients as well as account growth.

Loan Platform Fees and Related Servicing

2025 vs. 2024. Loan platform fees and related servicing increased $430.8 million, or 274%, for the year ended December 31, 2025 compared to the year ended December 31, 2024. This increase reflects a full year of Loan Platform Business originations during 2025 compared to the prior year period when the business was fully launched in the third quarter of 2024.

2024 vs. 2023. Loan platform fees and related servicing increased $121.4 million, or 337%, for the year ended December 31, 2024 compared to the year ended December 31, 2023. This increase was driven by growth in our Loan Platform Business which was fully launched in the third quarter of 2024.

2025 vs. 2024. The provision for credit losses was $30.3 million for the year-ended December 31, 2025, reflecting net charge-offs of $26.0 million and an allowance increase of $4.3 million. Net charge-offs of $26.1 million decreased $13.7 million compared to the year ended December 31, 2024, driven by lower credit card charge-offs primarily due to an improved delinquency rate as a result of tighter underwriting standards and risk mitigation actions. The allowance increase of $4.3 million primarily reflected growth in the credit card portfolio balances, partially offset by continued improvement in credit quality of the portfolio.

2024 vs. 2023. The provision for credit losses was $31.7 million for the year-ended December 31, 2024, reflecting net charge-offs of $39.6 million and an allowance release of $8.0 million. Net charge-offs of $39.6 million decreased $1.4 million compared to the year ended December 31, 2023, driven by lower credit card charge-offs primarily due to improved delinquency rate (total credit card delinquency rate was 4.8%, down approximately 210 bps from the comparative period) as a result of tighter underwriting standards and risk mitigation actions. The allowance release of $8.0 million was also primarily related to our credit card products, reflecting improved credit quality of the portfolio, including higher borrower FICO scores. The prior year provision for the year ended December 31, 2023 was $54.9 million, reflecting net charge-offs of $41.0 million and an allowance increase of $13.3 million.

Refer to “Analysis of Charge-offs” for a further discussion of the factors driving changes in net charge-offs and the allowance.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

(1)Loans outstanding balances used in the calculation exclude accrued interest.

(2)Secured loans are term loan arrangements secured by underlying loans (collateral) owned by the debtor. The underlying loans were previously originated by us and were subject to our underwriting process and risk models, prior to being sold to the debtor and in most instances these loans continue to be serviced by us. We evaluate the credit quality of our secured loan portfolio relative to the fair value of the underlying collateral, reassessing it quarterly based on relevant information, including funded loan rates and historical loss experience. An allowance for credit losses is required when there is an expected credit loss after considering the fair value of the collateral as well as any anticipated future changes in the underlying collateral. As of December 31, 2025, based on this evaluation we did not recognize an allowance for credit losses on our secured loans.

Analysis of Charge-offs

The following tables present information regarding average loans outstanding, net charge-offs and the annualized ratio of net charge-offs to average loans outstanding:

(1)Average balances were calculated on daily carrying balances.

(2)Net charge-offs include both credit- and certain non-credit-related charge-offs. Non-credit related charge-offs, which primarily relate to alleged or potential fraud, occur occasionally in our business and are impacted by factors different from our credit related charge-offs. Non-credit related charge-offs were immaterial for all periods presented.

(3)Net charge-offs related to personal, student and home loans are generally recorded in noninterest income—loan origination, sales, securitizations and servicing as part of the respective loans total change in fair value. Net charge-offs related to credit card and commercial and consumer banking are considered as part of the allowance for credit losses and provision for credit losses.

(4)Excludes the impact of delinquent personal loan sales during the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024. These loans were sold prior to charge-off during the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 and otherwise would have been charged off as of December 31, 2025 and 2024 consistent with our policy. See Note 4. Loans to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.

(5)Net charge-off ratio is calculated as net charge-offs divided by average loans.

2025 vs. 2024. For the year ended December 31, 2025, the total net charge-off ratio was 2.07%, a decrease of 56 bps compared with the year ended December 31, 2024, and total net charge-offs were $670.9 million, an increase of $2.7 million over the comparable period. The decrease in the total net charge-off ratio was primarily due to a lower credit card net charge-off ratio reflective of improvement in delinquency rates (total credit card delinquency rate was 3.5%, down approximately 130 bps from the comparative period) as a result of tighter underwriting standards and risk mitigation actions, as well as lower personal loans net charge-off ratio reflective of improvement in delinquency rates (total personal loan delinquency rate was 52 bps, down approximately 4 bps from the comparative period). The total net charge-off ratio decrease was partially offset by an increase in the student loan net charge-off ratio primarily driven by the repurchase of certain seasoned loans during 2025 that had a higher charge-off rate, in line with our expectations. While the student loan charge-off ratio increased during the period, the delinquency rate was relatively in line with the prior year period, reflecting overall stable credit quality of the overall portfolio.

The increase in total net charge-offs was $2.7 million, driven by higher student loan net charge-offs of $31.0 million primarily reflecting an increase in average loans of 45%, partially offset by lower personal loan and credit card net charge-offs of $14.7 million and $13.6 million, respectively.

2024 vs. 2023. For the year ended December 31, 2024, the total net charge-off ratio was 2.63%, a decrease of 3 bps compared with the year ended December 31, 2023, and total net charge-offs were $668.2 million, an increase of $169.4 million over the comparable period. The decrease in the total net charge-off ratio was primarily due to a lower credit card net charge-off ratio reflective of improvement in delinquency rates (total credit card delinquency rate was 4.8%, down approximately 210 bps from the comparative period) as a result of tighter underwriting standards and risk mitigation actions, as well as an increase of $359.1 million in secured loans, for which we did not recognize an allowance for credit losses. The increase in total net charge-offs was primarily driven by higher personal loan amounts of $148.7 million and higher student loan amounts of $22.0 million.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

In addition, charge-off ratios for personal loans and student loans were higher year over year, by 12 bps and 20 bps, respectively, which partially offset the improvement in the total net charge-off ratio. These increases reflect growth in our portfolios, seasoning of vintages and credit normalization, along with the impact of the end of the student loan payment moratorium on August 30, 2023.

Noninterest Expense

The following table presents the components of our total noninterest expense:

Total noninterest expense increased by $647.4 million, or 27%, for the year ended December 31, 2025 compared to the year ended December 31, 2024, as described below.

Technology and product development

2025 vs. 2024. Technology and product development expenses increased $96.5 million, or 17% for the year ended December 31, 2025 compared to the year ended December 31, 2024. The increase was primarily driven by higher employee compensation and benefits attributable to increases in headcount and salary to support our growth, and amortization of internally-developed software.

2024 vs. 2023. Technology and product development expenses increased $40.4 million, or 8%, for the year ended December 31, 2024 compared to the year ended December 31, 2023. This increase was driven by higher amortization of purchased and internally developed software, and tools and subscriptions costs reflective of continued investments in technology.

Sales and marketing

2025 vs. 2024. Sales and marketing expenses increased $299.1 million, or 38%, for the year ended December 31, 2025 compared to the year ended December 31, 2024. The increase was driven by increases in advertising and marketing expenditures, as well as higher lead generation costs primarily related to our Financial Services and Lending segments as we continue to drive expansion of our products and offerings.

2024 vs. 2023. Sales and marketing expenses increased $76.9 million, or 11%, for the year ended December 31, 2024 compared to the year ended December 31, 2023. This increase was driven by increases in direct member incentives, advertising and marketing expenditures, and lead generation costs primarily related to our Lending and Financial Services segments.

Cost of operations

2025 vs. 2024. Cost of operations expenses increased $147.4 million, or 32%, for the year ended December 31, 2025 compared to the year ended December 31, 2024. The increase was driven by: (i) loan origination and servicing expenses, (ii) higher employee compensation and benefits attributable to increases in headcount and salary to support our growth, (iii) product fulfillment costs which included debit card fulfillment services, primarily related to our SoFi Money product, and (iv) professional services costs.

2024 vs. 2023. Cost of operations expenses increased $81.6 million, or 21%, for the year ended December 31, 2024 compared to the year ended December 31, 2023. This increase was driven by increases in professional services costs and an increase in product fulfillment costs, which included debit card fulfillment services, primarily related to our SoFi Money product, as well as payment processing network association fees associated with increased activity on our technology platform.

General and administrative

2025 vs. 2024. General and administrative expenses increased $104.3 million, or 17%, for the year ended December 31, 2025 compared to the year ended December 31, 2024. This increase was driven by higher employee compensation and benefits attributable to increases in headcount and salary to support our growth.

2024 vs. 2023. General and administrative expenses increased $89.1 million, or 17%, for the year ended December 31, 2024 compared to the year ended December 31, 2023. This increase was driven by higher employee compensation and benefits attributable to increases in headcount and salary to support our growth, increases in professional services costs and amortization of premiums on a credit default swap related to our student loans during the 2024 period.

Income Taxes

The income tax expense for the year ended December 31, 2025 was $44.5 million, primarily attributable to the Company’s profitability, partially offset by tax benefits for stock compensation. See Note 17. Income Taxes to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information. On July 4, 2025, the OBBB was enacted into law, which included certain modifications to U.S. tax law. The enacted portions of the OBBB have not had a material impact on the Company's results of operations in 2025.

Our income tax benefit in 2024 primarily due to the release in the fourth quarter of a $258.4 million valuation allowance against certain deferred tax assets based on our reassessment of their realizability. The timing of this valuation allowance release was primarily due to our cumulative income combined with projections of continued profitability. Management defines cumulative income as the most recent three years of pre-tax income when adjusted for certain non-recurring, non-taxable, or non-deductible transactions.

Our income tax benefit in 2023 was primarily attributable to income tax benefits from foreign losses in jurisdictions with net deferred tax liabilities related to Technisys. Our 2023 benefits were partially offset by income tax expense associated with the profitability of SoFi Bank in state jurisdictions where separate filings are required, as well as federal taxes where our tax credits and loss carryforwards may be limited.

Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amounts that are more likely than not expected to be realized. In making such a determination of whether a valuation allowance is necessary, the Company considers all available positive and negative evidence supporting the allowance. As noted above, in 2024 we released a significant portion of our valuation allowance. During the year ended December 31, 2025, we continue to maintain a valuation allowance in certain state and foreign jurisdictions where sufficient positive evidence does not exist to support the realizability of deferred tax assets. Management will continue to assess the need for a valuation allowance in future periods. See Note 17. Income Taxes to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

Summary Results by Segment

Contribution profit (loss) is the primary measure of segment-level profit and loss that, along with our key business metrics, is used by management to evaluate our business, measure our performance, identify trends and make strategic decisions. Contribution profit (loss) is defined as total net revenue for each reportable segment less expenses directly attributable to the reportable segment, provision for credit losses and, in the case of our Lending segment, adjusted for fair value adjustments attributable to assumption changes associated with our servicing rights and residual interests classified as debt. See the sections entitled “Consolidated Results of Operations”, “Summary Results by Segment” and “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” for discussion and analysis of these key financial measures.

(1)Reflects changes in fair value inputs and assumptions on servicing rights, including conditional prepayment, default rates and discount rates. These assumptions are highly sensitive to market interest rate changes and are not indicative of our performance or results of operations. Moreover, these non-cash charges, which are recorded within noninterest income in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss), are unrealized during the period and, therefore, have no impact on our cash flows from operations.

(2)Reflects changes in fair value inputs and assumptions on residual interests classified as debt, including conditional prepayment, default rates and discount rates. When third parties finance our consolidated securitization VIEs by purchasing residual interests, we receive proceeds at the time of the closing of the securitization and, thereafter, pass along contractual cash flows to the residual interest owner.

Net interest income

2025 vs. 2024. Net interest income in our Lending segment increased by $398.8 million, or 33%, for the year ended December 31, 2025 compared to 2024. This was primarily attributable to increases in aggregate average personal and student loan unpaid principal balances of $3.1 billion (20%) and $3.1 billion (43%), respectively, combined with higher weighted average interest rates on student loans. The personal and student loan average balance increases were primarily attributable to higher origination volume and longer loan holding periods.

2024 vs. 2023. Net interest income in our Lending segment increased by $246.5 million, or 26%, for the year ended December 31, 2024 compared to 2023. This was primarily attributable to increases in aggregate average personal and student loan unpaid principal balances of $3.5 billion (29%) and $1.6 billion (29%), respectively, combined with higher weighted average interest rates. The personal and student loan average balance increases were primarily attributable to higher origination volume and longer loan holding periods. Interest expense associated with funding our lending activities increased by $410.0 million, or 44%, primarily due to higher average loan balances.

Noninterest income

Noninterest income in our Lending segment decreased by $35.1 million, or 13%, for the year ended December 31, 2025 compared to 2024, and decreased by $131.9 million, or 32%, for the year ended December 31, 2024 compared to 2023. For both periods, the change was primarily attributable to lower loan origination, sales, securitizations and servicing income.

Loan Originations, Sales, Securitizations and Servicing

(1)Includes fair value adjustments on loans originated during the period, fair value adjustments of loans and securitization bond and residual interest positions held at the balance sheet date, as well as gains (losses) on loans sold and consolidated securitization transactions during the period. Fair value adjustments are impacted by interest rates, weighted average coupon, credit spreads and loss estimates, prepayment speeds, duration and previous loan sale execution on similar loans.

(2)For the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, includes gross write-offs of $756.7 million, $730.1 million and $533.3 million, respectively. Total recoveries were $111.7 million, $102.4 million and $78.1 million, respectively, of which $81.3 million, $78.8 million and $53.7 million, respectively, were captured via loan sales to a third-party collection agency.

(3)Includes changes in fair value of servicing rights, gains (losses) on IRLCs and interest rate caps and the (expense) benefit associated with our estimated loan repurchase obligation. See Note 18. Commitments, Guarantees, Concentrations and Contingencies to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.

2025 vs. 2024. The decrease in loan origination, sales, securitizations and servicing income of $35.1 million, or 13%, was primarily driven by: (i) losses during the 2025 period compared to gains in the 2024 period on interest rate swap positions primarily related to student loans and personal loans ($479.4 million), and (ii) net higher loan write-offs in the 2025 period ($17.3 million), which were related to student and personal loans.

121

SoFi Technologies, Inc.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

These decreases were partially offset by: (i) higher fair value gains on student loans primarily impacted by a larger decrease in discount rate assumptions as well as increased loan origination volume ($292.4 million), (ii) higher fair value gains on home loans in the 2025 period primarily impacted by increased loan origination volume ($86.5 million), and (iii) higher origination fees ($52.3 million) primarily related to a product feature offered on personal loans, whereby a borrower may optionally elect to pay origination fees to qualify for a lower annual percentage rate, as well as home loans.

2024 vs. 2023. The decrease in loan origination, sales, securitizations and servicing income of $131.0 million, or 32%, was primarily driven by: (i) higher personal loan as well as student loan write-offs in the 2024 period, primarily driven by higher loan origination volume, longer loan holding periods and elevated charge off rates during 2024 ($170.7 million); (ii) a net decrease of $111.0 million related to the following: lower fair value gains on personal loans, which were primarily impacted by smaller decreases in discount rate assumptions during 2024 ($371.2 million); lower fair value gains on student loans, which were primarily impacted by higher discount rate assumptions ($77.7 million); and gains on student loan, personal loan and risk retention interest rate swap positions during 2024 compared to losses in 2023, primarily driven by larger increases in interest rates in the 2024 period ($337.9 million); and (iii) higher losses of $66.1 million on personal loan sales in the 2024 period, and were due to both price and volume factors, as well as delinquent loan sales in the 2024 period only.

These decreases were partially offset by higher origination fees primarily related to a new product feature offered on personal loans, whereby a borrower may optionally elect to pay origination fees to qualify for a lower annual percentage rate ($242.9 million).

Servicing

We own the master servicing on all of the servicing rights that we retain and, in each case, recognize the gross servicing rate applicable to each serviced loan. Sub-servicers are utilized for all serviced student loans and home loans, which represents a cost to SoFi, but these arrangements do not impact our calculation of the weighted average basis points earned for each loan type serviced. Further, there is no impact on servicing income due to forbearance and moratoriums on certain debt collection activities, and there are no waivers of late fees.

The table below presents information related to our loan servicing assets:

Directly attributable expenses

2025 vs. 2024. Lending segment directly attributable expenses increased by $221.6 million, or 38%, for the year ended December 31, 2025 compared to 2024, primarily due to: (i) an increase in direct advertising primarily related to online, digital and direct mail advertising, (ii) an increase in allocated compensation and related benefits, which reflected increases in headcount in 2025 to support growth in the Lending segment, (iii) an increase in expense related to personal loan lead generation channels, and (iv) an increase in loan origination and servicing costs, which correspond with increased loan origination volume.

2024 vs. 2023. Lending segment directly attributable expenses increased by $75.4 million, or 15%, for the year ended December 31, 2024 compared to 2023, primarily due to: (i) an increase in direct advertising primarily related to online and digital advertising, (ii) an increase in personal and student loan lead generation channels, (iii) an increase in allocated compensation and related benefits, which reflected increases in average compensation in 2024, and (iv) a decrease in other expenses, primarily related to third-party loan fraud.

(1)Inclusive of origination volume related to our Loan Platform Business. For the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, we originated $11.0 billion and $2.1 billion, respectively, of personal loans on behalf of third parties. We did not originate any loans on behalf of third parties during 2023.

(2)Loans with a balance and average loan balance include Lending products on our balance sheet, as well as transferred loans and referred loans with which we have a continuing involvement through our servicing agreements.

(3)Includes in-school loans and student loan refinancing products. In-school loans carry a lower average balance than student loan refinancing products.

Origination Volume

We refer to the aggregate dollar amount of loans originated through our platform in a given period as origination volume. Origination volume is an indicator of the size and health of our Lending segment and an indicator (together with the relevant loan characteristics, such as interest rate and prepayment and default expectations) of revenues and profitability. We also originate and sell loans in support of our Loan Platform Business, through which we provide lending related services to third-party partners. We maintain the same lending relationship with borrowers across all loans that we originate, inclusive of those originated on behalf of a third-party partner and as such, reflect these products within our Lending segment total products. Changes in origination volume are driven by the addition of new members and existing members, the latter of which at times will either refinance into a new SoFi loan or secure an additional, concurrent loan, as well as macroeconomic factors impacting consumer spending and borrowing behavior.

Personal Loans. During the year ended December 31, 2025, total personal loan origination volume increased by 56% relative to 2024, inclusive of an $8.9 billion increase related to personal loans originated on behalf of third parties in support of our Loan Platform Business which we expanded starting in the second half of 2024. Demand from our Loan Platform Business has continued to increase as partners seek to leverage our customer acquisition and operational capabilities to originate loans at scale, as well as increased demand driven by expanded advertising and marketing efforts.

During the year ended December 31, 2024, personal loan origination volume increased by 28% relative to 2023, inclusive of a $2.1 billion increase related to personal loans originated on behalf of third parties during the second half of 2024 in support of our Loan Platform Business. Overall increases in origination volume were primarily due to increased demand driven by expanded marketing efforts and increased demand for debt consolidation products in a rising interest rate environment during 2023 that remained elevated into the third quarter of 2024.

Student Loans. During the year ended December 31, 2025, student loan origination volume increased by 46% relative to 2024, as demand for student loan refinancing products continued to increase after the resumption of principal and interest payments in 2024 on federally-held student loans as borrowers looked to refinance at a lower rate, as well as increased interest in loan term extensions given the elevated interest rate environment.

123

SoFi Technologies, Inc.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

During the year ended December 31, 2024, student loan origination volume increased by 44% relative to 2023, as demand for student loan refinancing products increased after the resumption of principal and interest payments on federally-held student loans as borrowers looked to refinance at a lower rate or, given the high interest rate environment, to extend the loan term.

Home Loans. During the year ended December 31, 2025, home loan origination volume increased by 86% relative to 2024. Our home loan origination volume increased notably throughout 2024 and into 2025, aided by the increased capacity and technology and fulfillment capabilities subsequent to our acquisition of Wyndham. During 2024, we began offering fixed rate home equity loans and variable rate HELOCs. Origination volume during 2025 reflected increased demand for home equity loans, which have allowed members to take advantage of the equity that has built up in their homes.

During the year ended December 31, 2024, home loan origination volume decreased by 82% relative to 2023. Our home loan origination volume increased notably beginning in the second quarter of 2023 and throughout 2024, aided by the increased capacity and capabilities subsequent to our acquisition of Wyndham. In addition, interest rates declined in the third quarter of 2024, which tends to raise demand for home loans overall as well as shift demand towards refinance originations from purchase originations.

Loans with a Balance and Average Loan Balance

Loans with a balance refers to the number of loans that have a balance greater than zero dollars as of the reporting date. Loans with a balance allows management and investors to better understand the unit economics of acquiring a loan in relation to the lifetime value of that loan. Average loan balance is defined as the total unpaid principal balance of the loans divided by loans with a balance within the respective loan product category as of the reporting date. Average loan balance tends to fluctuate based on the pace of loan originations relative to loan repayments and the initial loan origination size.

(1)Sale execution represents the ratio of cash proceeds and servicing assets recognized to the aggregate unpaid principal balance and accrued interest of the loans sold. Amounts included in repurchase liabilities are excluded from the calculation, as they typically would not materially differ from the fair value markdown on the loans over the repurchase period had they been held on balance sheet and entered delinquency.

(2)Excludes net origination fees, which are recognized in earnings at the time of origination. Personal loans sold during the year ended December 31, 2025, had related origination fees of $42,733. Sales execution including these origination fees would be 108.8%. Personal loans sold during the year ended December 31, 2024, had related origination fees of $60.5 million. Sales execution including these origination fees would be 108.0%. Personal loans sold during the year ended December 31, 2023, had related origination fees of $4.7 million. Sales execution including these origination fees would be 106.3%.

Noninterest income

2025 vs. 2024. Noninterest income in our Technology Platform segment increased by $55.7 million, or 14%, for the year ended December 31, 2025 compared to 2024. The increase was primarily attributable to an increase in intercompany revenue of $48.7 million, primarily attributable to increased usage of technology platform services during the 2025 period by our Financial Services segment as we continue to leverage synergies to enhance our product offerings. During 2025, a large client fully transitioned off the platform.

2024 vs. 2023. Noninterest income in our Technology Platform segment increased by $42.2 million, or 12%, for the year ended December 31, 2024 compared to 2023. The increase was primarily attributable to growth in technology services fees of $26.3 million driven by increased processing and service arrangement activity among our integrated technology solutions clients as well as account growth. Noninterest income also included $36.8 million and $22.2 million of intercompany revenue for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The increase in intercompany revenue was primarily attributable to increased usage of technology platform services during the 2024 period by our Financial Services segment as we continue to leverage synergies to enhance our product offerings.

2025 vs. 2024. Noninterest income in our Financial Services segment increased by $515.9 million, or 208%, for the year ended December 31, 2025 compared to 2024, primarily due to: (i) growth in our Loan Platform Business of $434.3 million, which includes increases in loan platform fees related to revenue from loans which we originate on behalf of third parties in order to subsequently sell as well as pre-qualified borrower referrals to third-party loan origination partners as we continue to drive volume to our partners; and (ii) an increase in interchange fees of $47.5 million, which coincided with increased credit card and debit card transactions.

2024 vs. 2023. Noninterest income in our Financial Services segment increased by $146.4 million, or 144%, for the year ended December 31, 2024 compared to 2023, primarily due to: (i) growth in our Loan Platform Business of $108.0 million, which includes increases in loan platform fees related to revenue from loans which we originate on behalf of third parties in order to subsequently sell as well as pre-qualified borrower referrals to third-party loan origination partners as we continue to drive volume to our partners; and (ii) an increase in interchange fees of $31.6 million, which coincided with increased credit card and debit card transactions.

Provision for credit losses

2025 vs. 2024. Provision for credit losses in our Financial Services segment decreased by $1.3 million, or 4%. The allowance increase of $4.3 million during 2025 primarily reflected growth in the credit card portfolio balances, partially offset by continued improvement in credit quality of the portfolio. Net charge-offs decreased primarily related to improvement in credit card delinquency rates (total credit card delinquency rate was 3.5% as of December 31, 2025, down approximately 130 bps from the comparative period) as a result of tighter underwriting standards and risk mitigation actions.

2024 vs. 2023. Provision for credit losses in our Financial Services segment decreased by $23.3 million, or 42%, primarily related to improvement in credit card delinquency rates (total credit card delinquency rate was 4.8%, down approximately 210 bps from the comparative period) as a result of tighter underwriting standards and risk mitigation actions, and improved credit quality of the portfolio, including higher borrower FICO scores.

Directly attributable expenses

2025 vs. 2024. Financial Services directly attributable expenses increased by $235.9 million, or 49%, for the year ended December 31, 2025 compared to 2024, primarily due to: (i) a net increase in direct advertising and lead generation costs

as we continue to expand our Loan Platform Business and our SoFi Money product; (ii) an increase in allocated compensation and related benefits which reflected an increase in headcount and increases in average compensation in 2025 to support growth in the Financial Services segment; and (iii) an increase in intercompany expenses attributable to increased usage of technology platform services during the 2025 period.

2024 vs. 2023. Financial Services directly attributable expenses increased by $101.0 million, or 26%, for the year ended December 31, 2024 compared to 2023, primarily due to: (i) an increase in direct member incentives utilized to drive adoption and usage of our Financial Services products, the most significant of which was our SoFi Money product; (ii) an increase in product fulfillment costs, which included debit card fulfillment services, primarily related to our SoFi Money product; (iii) an increase in compensation and benefits expense, which reflected an increase in allocated compensation and related benefits to support growth in the Financial Services segment, in addition to increases in average compensation in 2024; and (iv) an increase in intercompany expenses attributable to increased usage of technology platform services during the 2024 period.

Total assets as of December 31, 2025 were $50.7 billion, up $14.4 billion, or 40%, from December 31, 2024. The increase was primarily attributable to an increase in total loans of $10.5 billion, comprised of held for sale ($5.2 billion) driven by an increase in personal and home loan originations and an increase in our loans held for investment ($5.3 billion) which was primarily related to student loan purchases and originations. See “Cash Flow and Liquidity Analysis” for further discussion of changes in total cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents during the year ended December 31, 2025.

Liabilities and Permanent Equity

Total liabilities as of December 31, 2025 were $40.2 billion, up $10.4 billion, or 35%, from December 31, 2024. The increase was primarily attributable to an increase in total deposits ($11.5 billion) driven by our differentiated checking and savings account offerings and competitive APY, partially offset by a decrease in total debt ($1.3 billion) as our common stock offerings in July and December 2025 allowed us to fully pay down outstanding warehouse lines.

Total permanent equity as of December 31, 2025 was $10.5 billion, up $4.0 billion, or 61%, from December 31, 2024. The increase was primarily attributable to our common stock offerings in July and December 2025 and a decrease in accumulated deficit driven by net income during the year ended December 31, 2025.

Cash Flows from Operating Activities

For the year ended December 31, 2025, net cash used in operating activities primarily stemmed from loans held for sale originations outpacing cash proceeds from loans held for sale paydowns and sales activities, partially offset by net income and paydowns on our loans previously classified as held for sale. We had principal loan originations of $30.9 billion and principal loan purchases of $119.5 million during the period. These cash uses were partially offset by principal loan payments of $11.2 billion and principal loan sales of $15.1 billion.

For the year ended December 31, 2024, net cash used in operating activities stemmed from net income of $498.7 million, an unfavorable change in our operating assets net of operating liabilities of $1.6 billion, and a negative adjustment for non-cash items of $5.6 million. The change in operating assets net of operating liabilities was primarily a result of our loan origination and sales activities. We originated loans of $19.4 billion during the year and also purchased loans of $170 million. These cash uses were partially offset by principal payments on loans of $9.5 billion and principal proceeds from loan sales of $8.5 billion.

For the year ended December 31, 2023, net cash used in operating activities of $7.2 billion stemmed from a net loss of $300.7 million and an unfavorable change in our operating assets net of operating liabilities of $7.6 billion, partially offset by a positive adjustment for non-cash items of $706.8 million. The change in operating assets net of operating liabilities was primarily a result of our loan origination and sales activities.

Cash Flows from Investing Activities

For the year ended December 31, 2025, net cash used in investing activities was primarily driven by growth in our loans and AFS investment portfolio, including $6.1 billion of loan originations, $2.1 billion of loan purchases and $1.7 billion of AFS investment purchases, as well as net outflows related to credit cards of $230.1 million. These outflows were partially offset by $2.2 billion of proceeds from loan repayments and recoveries, proceeds from loan sales of $392.6 million as well as $522.0 million of AFS investment sales and $549.6 million of AFS investment payments and maturities.

For the year ended December 31, 2024, net cash used in investing activities was primarily attributable to loan activities. Changes in loans held for investment was primarily a result of loan originations during the period of $7.5 billion, partially offset by principal payments on loans of $3.3 billion and proceeds from loan sales of $677.6 million. Other cash uses included net purchases of $1.2 billion related to our investments in AFS debt securities, $154.3 million for purchases of property, equipment and software, which primarily included internally-developed software and purchased software, and $37.8 million related to purchases of non-securitization investments, primarily FRB stock and FHLB stock. These uses were partially offset by proceeds of $79.8 million from our securitization investments.

For the year ended December 31, 2023, net cash used in investing activities of $1.9 billion was primarily attributable to $1.4 billion related to loan activities, primarily driven by student loans, secured loans and credit cards, net purchases of $381.0 million related to our investments in AFS debt securities, $111.4 million for purchases of property, equipment and software, which primarily included internally-developed software and purchased software, $72.3 million related to business combinations, net of cash acquired, which includes our acquisition of Wyndham and settlements of vested employee performance awards associated with the Technisys Merger, and $66.6 million related to purchases of non-securitization investments, primarily FRB stock and FHLB stock. These uses were partially offset by proceeds of $108.3 million from our securitization investments.

Cash Flows from Financing Activities

For the year ended December 31, 2025, net cash provided by financing activities was primarily attributable to net cash sources from our SoFi Bank deposits and proceeds from the common stock offerings that we completed in the third and fourth quarters of 2025. This was partially offset by our net change in debt facilities related to our warehouses and debt repayments.

For the year ended December 31, 2024, net cash provided by financing activities was primarily attributable to net cash sources from our SoFi Bank deposits and proceeds from the issuance of our 2029 convertible notes. This was partially offset by our net change in debt facilities related to our warehouses and debt repayments. Our payments of debt issuance costs were in the normal course of business and reflective of our recurring debt warehouse facility activity, which involves securing new warehouse facilities and extending existing warehouse facilities. In addition, we had an outflow of $323.4 million related to the redemption of our Series 1 preferred stock in May 2024.

For the year ended December 31, 2023, net cash provided by financing activities was primarily attributable to net cash sources from our SoFi Bank deposits. This was partially offset by debt repayments which exceeded our proceeds from debt financing activity, which were primarily related to our warehouse facilities. Our payments of debt issuance costs were in the normal course of business and reflective of our recurring debt warehouse facility activity, which involves securing new warehouse facilities and extending existing warehouse facilities.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Liquidity

We strive to maintain access to diverse funding sources and ample liquidity to fund our operating requirements, to pursue strategic growth initiatives and to meet our legal and regulatory requirements. Our principal sources of liquidity are our cash and cash equivalents, including cash from operations, and investments in other highly liquid assets.

We maintain Treasury risk policies which outline specific requirements relating to the oversight of SoFi Technologies, Inc. (and its subsidiaries) capital planning, financial planning and forecasting, liquidity risk management, contingency funding planning, interest rate risk management, cash management and financial operations, among other activities. Oversight of these activities is the responsibility of our ALCO. The ALCO is a management committee comprised of a cross-functional leadership team that is responsible for managing our use of capital, liquidity, sources and uses of funding, and sensitivities to various market risks, by identifying key risks and exposures, monitoring them appropriately, establishing tolerances and limits,

We believe our existing liquidity will be sufficient to meet our existing working capital and capital expenditure needs, as well as our planned growth for at least the next 12 months.

Sources of Funding

Our primary funding sources include SoFi Bank deposits, warehouse funding, common equity capital, convertible debt, corporate revolving credit facility, securitizations, and other financings.

We offer deposit accounts (checking and savings accounts) to our members through SoFi Bank. We also source brokered and non-brokered wholesale deposits, which include certificates of deposit.

As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the amount of uninsured deposits totaled $1.0 billion and $544.3 million, respectively. As of December 31, 2025, approximately 97% of our total deposits were insured.

The following table presents uninsured time deposits as of December 31, 2025 by remaining time to maturity:

Uses of Funding

Our primary uses of funds include loan originations, investments in our business, such as technology and product investments, as well as sales and marketing initiatives. In addition, our Financial Services segment has historically generated losses, and achieved contribution profit for the first time during the third quarter of 2023. Our capital expenditures have historically been less significant relative to our operating and financing cash flows, and we expect this trend to continue for the foreseeable future.

As of December 31, 2025, we had debt obligations and common stock outstanding.

Borrowings

Our borrowings primarily included our revolving credit facility and convertible notes. During the fourth quarter of 2025, the Company used a portion of the proceeds from its common stock issuances to pay down its warehouse facilities; the warehouse facilities remain open to maintain future borrowing capacity.

Refer to Note 12. Debt to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information on our borrowing arrangements and the capped call transactions entered into in connection with the issuance of our convertible notes.

Covenants

We have various affirmative and negative financial covenants, as well as non-financial covenants, related to our warehouse debt and revolving credit facility. Additionally, we have compliance requirements associated with our convertible notes, and certain provisions of the arrangement could change in the event of a “Make-Whole Fundamental Change”, as defined in the indenture governing such convertible notes.

The availability of funds under our warehouse facilities and revolving credit facility is subject to, among other conditions, our continued compliance with the covenants. These financial covenants include, but are not limited to, maintaining: (i) a certain minimum tangible net worth, (ii) minimum unrestricted cash and cash equivalents, (iii) a maximum leverage ratio of total debt to tangible net worth, and (iv) minimum risk-based capital and leverage ratios. A breach of these covenants can result in an event of default under these facilities and allows the lenders to pursue certain remedies. See Note 12. Debt to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information. Our subsidiaries are restricted in the amount that can be distributed to SoFi only to the extent that such distributions would cause the financial covenants to not be met.

We were in compliance with all covenants as of December 31, 2025.

Capital Management

SoFi Technologies, a bank holding company, and SoFi Bank, a nationally chartered association, are required to comply with regulatory capital rules issued by the Federal Reserve and other U.S. banking regulators, including the OCC and FDIC. From time to time, we may contribute capital to SoFi Bank. We are required to manage our capital position to maintain sufficient capital to satisfy these regulatory rules and support our business activities, including the requirement to maintain minimum regulatory capital ratios in accordance with the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision standardized approach for U.S. banking organizations (U.S. Basel III). If the Federal Reserve finds that we are not “well-capitalized” or “well-managed”, we would be required to take remedial action, which may contain additional limitations or conditions relating to our activities.

These requirements establish required minimum ratios for CET1 risk-based capital, Tier 1 risk-based capital, total risk-based capital and a Tier 1 leverage ratio; set risk-weighting for assets and certain other items for purposes of the risk-based capital ratios; and define what qualifies as capital for purposes of meeting the capital requirements.

As of December 31, 2025, our regulatory capital ratios exceeded the thresholds required to be regarded as a well-capitalized institution, and meet all capital adequacy requirements to which we are subject. There have been no events or conditions since December 31, 2025 that management believes would change the categorization. See Note 21. Regulatory Capital to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for the risk- and leverage-based capital ratios and amounts for SoFi Bank and SoFi Technologies.

__________________

(1)Includes principal balance and variable interest on our revolving credit facility. The estimated interest payments assume that our borrowings under the revolving credit facility (i) remain unchanged, (ii) are held to maturity, and (iii) incur interest at the rate for standard withdrawals in effect as of December 31, 2025 through its maturity. See Note 12. Debt to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information on our revolving credit facility.

(2)The convertible notes will mature October 2026 and March 2029, unless earlier repurchased, redeemed or converted. Includes principal balance for the 2026 convertible notes and 2029 convertible notes, and future interest expense on our 2029 convertible notes. The estimated interest payments assume that our borrowings under the 2029 convertible notes (i) remain unchanged, (ii) are held to maturity, and (iii) incur interest at the rate in effect as of December 31, 2025 through maturity. See “Borrowings” for additional information on the provisions of our convertible notes.

(3)See Note 18. Commitments, Guarantees, Concentrations and Contingencies to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information on these financial commitments.

(4)Contractual obligations exclude residual interests classified as debt that result from transfers of assets that are accounted for as secured financings. Similarly, contractual obligations exclude securitization debt, as the maturity of the notes issued by the various trusts occurs upon either the maturity of the loan collateral or full payment of the loan collateral held in the trusts, the timing of which cannot be reasonably estimated. Additionally, our own liquidity resources are not required to make any contractual payments on these borrowings, except in limited instances associated with our guarantee arrangements. Our maturity date represents the legal maturity of the last class of maturing notes. See Note 18. Commitments, Guarantees, Concentrations and Contingencies to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion of our guarantees. Finally, contractual obligations exclude the impact of uncertain tax positions, as we are not able to reasonably estimate the timing of such future cash flows. See Note 17. Income Taxes to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information on income taxes and unrecognized tax benefits.

Guarantees

We may require liquidity resources associated with our guarantee arrangements. As a component of our loan sale agreements, we make certain representations to third parties that purchased our previously held loans. We have a three-year obligation to GSEs on loans that we sell to GSEs, to repurchase any originated loans that do not meet certain GSE guidelines, and we are required to pay the full initial purchase price back to the GSEs. In addition, we make standard representations and warranties related to personal, student and home loan transfers, as well as limited credit-related repurchase guarantees on certain such transfers. If realized, any of the repurchases would require the use of cash. See Note 18. Commitments, Guarantees, Concentrations and Contingencies to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for further information on these and other guarantee obligations. We believe we have adequate liquidity to meet these expected obligations.

Factors Affecting Liquidity

The activities of our lending business are a key factor affecting our liquidity, in particular our origination volume, the holding period of our loans, loan sale execution and the timing of loan repayments. Our ability to have adequate liquidity to fund our balance sheet is impacted by our ability to access new deposits, and retain and grow existing deposits, along with our ability to access whole loan buyers, sell our loans on favorable terms, maintain adequate warehouse capacity at favorable terms, and to strategically manage our continuing financial interest in securitization-related transfers. Our ability to attract and maintain deposits can be impacted by, among other things, general economic conditions, competition from other financial services firms, idiosyncratic events and the interest rates we offer, which can impact our liquidity from deposits. In 2023, we began to provide our members with access to expanded FDIC insurance coverage through a network of participating banks in our Insured Deposit Program. We continued to have strong deposit contribution through 2025.

There is no guarantee that we will be able to execute on our strategy as it relates to the timing and pricing of capital markets transaction.

Further, future uncertainties around the demand for our personal loans, home loans and around the student loan refinance market in general, including as a result of worsening macroeconomic conditions or market disruptions, should be

considered when assessing our future liquidity and solvency prospects. In the future, our loan origination volume and our resulting loan balances, and any positive cash flows thereof, could also be lower based on strategic decisions to tighten our credit standards.

In addition to our ability to pledge unencumbered loans against available warehouse capacity, we have relationships with whole loan buyers who have historically demonstrated strong demand for our loans. Capital markets can also generate additional liquidity; however, we are required to maintain a minimum investment due to securitization risk retention rules.

We also had available borrowing capacity at the FHLBs and the discount window at the Federal Reserve Banks as a result of collateral pledged by us to such banks.

Our long-term liquidity strategy includes continuing to grow our deposit base, maintaining adequate warehouse capacity, maintaining access to debt capital markets and other sources of financing, as well as effectively managing the capital raised through debt and equity transactions. Although our goal is to increase our cash flow from operations, there can be no assurance that our future operating plans will lead to improved operating cash flows.

The FDIA and FDIC regulations generally limit the ability of an insured depository institution to accept, renew or roll over any brokered deposit unless the institution’s capital category is “well capitalized” or, with the FDIC’s approval, “adequately capitalized.” See Part I, Item 1. “Government Supervision and Regulation—Brokered Deposits” for additional information. As of December 31, 2025, our regulatory capital ratios exceeded the thresholds required to be regarded as a well-capitalized institution, and meet all capital adequacy requirements to which we are subject.

Other Arrangements

We enter into arrangements in which we originate loans, establish an SPE and transfer loans to the SPE, which has historically served as an important source of liquidity. We also retain the servicing rights of the underlying loans and hold additional interests in the SPE. When an SPE is determined not to be a VIE or when an SPE is determined to be a VIE but we are not the primary beneficiary, the SPE is not consolidated. In addition, a significant change to the pertinent rights of other parties or our pertinent rights, or a significant change to the ranges of possible financial performance outcomes used in our assessment of the variability of cash flows due to us, could impact the determination of whether or not a VIE is consolidated. VIE consolidation and deconsolidation may lead to increased volatility in our financial results and impact period-over-period comparability. See Note 1. Organization, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and New Accounting Standards to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for our VIE consolidation policy.

Historically, we have established personal loan trusts and student loan trusts that were created and designed to transfer credit and interest rate risk associated with the underlying loans through the issuance of collateralized notes and residual certificates. We hold a variable interest in the trusts through our ownership of collateralized notes in the form of asset-backed bonds and residual certificates. The residual certificates absorb variability and represent the equity ownership interest in the equity portion of the personal loan and student loan trusts.

We are also the servicer for all trusts in which we hold a financial interest. As servicer, we may have the power to perform the activities which most impact the economic performance of the VIE, but since either we hold an insignificant financial interest in the trusts or rights held by other variable interest holders convey power, we are not the primary beneficiary. Further, we do not provide financial support beyond our initial equity investment, and our maximum exposure to loss as a result of our involvement with nonconsolidated VIEs is limited to that initial investment. For a more detailed discussion of nonconsolidated VIEs, including related activity during the year, see Note 7. Securitization and Variable Interest Entities to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

Critical Accounting Estimates

Our consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. In preparing our consolidated financial statements, we make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts of assets and liabilities, as well as revenues and expenses. We base our assumptions, judgments and estimates on historical experience and various other factors that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. The results involve judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results could differ materially from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. We regularly evaluate our estimates, assumptions and judgments, particularly those that include the most difficult, subjective or complex judgments which are often about matters that are inherently uncertain. The most significant judgments, estimates and assumptions relate to the critical accounting estimates, which are discussed in detail below. We evaluate our critical accounting policies and estimates on an ongoing basis and update them as necessary based on

changes in market conditions or factors specific to us. See Note 1. Organization, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and New Accounting Standards to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for a summary of our significant accounting policies.

Fair Value

Fair value is defined as the 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 use a three-level fair value hierarchy to classify and disclose all assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis in periods subsequent to their initial measurement. The hierarchy requires us to use observable inputs when available and to minimize the use of unobservable inputs when determining fair value. The three levels are defined as follows:

•Level 1 — Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities, accessible by us at the measurement date.

•Level 2 — Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, or quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, or observable inputs other than quoted prices.

•Level 3 — Unobservable inputs for assets or liabilities for which there is little or no market data, which requires us to develop our own assumptions. These unobservable assumptions reflect estimates of inputs that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. Valuation techniques include the use of option pricing models, discounted cash flow models, or similar techniques, which incorporate management’s own estimates of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.

A financial instrument’s categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Instruments are categorized in Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy based on the significance of unobservable factors in the overall fair value measurement. Our involvement with VIEs and origination of personal loans, student loans and home loans results in Level 2 and Level 3 assumptions having a material impact on our consolidated financial statements, as further discussed below. We utilize third-party valuation specialists to perform a valuation of these Level 2 and Level 3 financial instruments on a monthly basis with quarterly oversight by a Valuation Committee established by the Company that comprises leaders across finance, capital markets and accounting.

Loans

We generally elect the fair value option to measure our personal loans, student loans and home loans, as we believe that fair value best reflects the expected economic performance of the loans. Home loans classified as Level 2 have observable pricing sources utilized by management. Personal loans, student loans and home loans which do not trade in an active market with readily observable prices are classified as Level 3 because the valuations utilize significant unobservable inputs.

We determine the fair value of our loans using a DCF calculation, which is a form of the income approach, while also considering market data as it becomes available. In applying the DCF methodology, we estimate the future cash flows of each loan portfolio using key loan metrics, such as term, vintage, coupon rate, coupon type and current balance, among others. The significant assumptions used in the valuation model include conditional prepayment rate, annual default rate and discount rate. The conditional prepayment rate represents the monthly annualized proportion of the principal of a pool of loans that is assumed to be paid off prematurely in each period. The annual default rate represents the annualized rate of borrowers who do not make loan payments on time. The conditional prepayment and annual default rate assumptions are determined using company-specific historical loan performance curves. The discount rate represents the weighted average rate at which the expected cash flows are discounted to arrive at the net present value of the loans. The discount rate is determined based on company-specific factors and market observations, including underlying benchmark rates, our weighted average coupon rate and expected duration of the assets, the last of which is also impacted by expected prepayment rates. We also consider the volume and terms of recent whole loan sales and securitization market pricing factors, as applicable, as indicators of loan fair values.

See “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk” for discussion of the sensitivity of our financial instruments measured at fair value to changes in various market risks.

Goodwill

Goodwill represents the fair value of an acquired business in excess of the fair value of the identified net assets acquired. As of December 31, 2025, we had goodwill of $1.4 billion, of which $1.3 billion was assigned to the Technology Platform reporting unit.

138

SoFi Technologies, Inc.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Goodwill is tested for impairment at the reporting unit level at least annually, with a recurring testing date of October 1, or whenever indicators of impairment exist. We may assess goodwill for impairment initially based on qualitative considerations, referred to as “step zero”, to determine whether conditions exist that indicate that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. If management concludes, based on its assessment of relevant events, facts and circumstances that it is more likely than not that a reporting unit’s carrying value is greater than its fair value, then a quantitative analysis, referred to as “step one”, will be performed to determine if there is any impairment. We may alternatively elect to initially perform a quantitative assessment and bypass the qualitative assessment. Quantitative goodwill impairment assessments require a significant amount of management judgment, and a meaningful change in the forecasted future revenues and cash flows, the discount rate, and the determination of market multiples used in testing goodwill for impairment could result in a material impact on the Company’s results of operations and financial position.

A goodwill impairment loss is recognized for the amount that the carrying amount of a reporting unit, including goodwill, exceeds its fair value, limited to the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. Therefore, if the fair value of a reporting unit exceeds its carrying amount, goodwill of the reporting unit is not impaired. Our reporting units for our goodwill impairment analysis represent components of our business at one level below our operating segments.

During the third quarter of 2025, due to the continued shift in strategy to focus on potential new partners with scaled customer bases and the change in customer mix within the Technology Platform segment, management performed an interim quantitative assessment on the Galileo and Technisys reporting units as of September 1, 2025, prior to aggregating the two reporting units, to determine if there was any goodwill impairment.

As of September 1, 2025, management calculated the fair value amount of the Galileo and Technisys reporting units using an evenly weighted combination of a DCF calculation, which is a form of the income approach, and a market multiples calculation, which is a form of the market approach. The discount rates used for the Galileo and Technisys reporting units in our interim quantitative assessment were 12.9% and 19.3%, respectively. The higher discount rate for Technisys, relative to Galileo, was primarily driven by macroeconomic factors in Latin America, specifically the highly inflationary economic environment in Argentina. Additionally, management applied a terminal year long-term growth rate of 4.0% to both reporting units. As a result of this interim quantitative assessment, the fair value of the Galileo and Technisys reporting units were determined to be above their respective carrying values which resulted in no impairment at September 1, 2025. If the discount rate applied to the estimated cash flows was increased or decreased by 50 basis points, the fair value of the Galileo and Technisys reporting units would decrease or increase by approximately 4% and 3%, respectively. Similarly, if the long-term growth rate was increased or decreased by 50 basis points, the fair value of the Galileo and Technisys reporting units would increase or decrease by approximately 2% and 1%, respectively. Or, if the Company’s market capitalization was to decline due to unforeseen factors, it could impact the fair value of the respective units.

Subsequent to our September 1, 2025 interim goodwill assessment, the Company aggregated its Galileo and Technisys reporting units into a single reporting unit, Technology Platform. This update is reflective of the operational and strategic integration of these former two reporting units and is consistent with how segment management manages the business. As a result, the amount of goodwill previously assigned to Galileo and Technisys of $816.0 million and $522.6 million, respectively, was combined in the Technology Platform reporting unit ($1.3 billion).

As of its annual impairment testing date of October 1, 2025, the Company performed a qualitative “step zero” analysis for all of our reporting units. The Company evaluated events and circumstances since the last goodwill assessment date to determine if it was more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting units were less than their respective carrying amounts. The factors evaluated included an assessment of macroeconomic conditions, industry and market conditions, key financial metrics, overall financial performance of the reporting unit, or any other specific events or changes. As a result of this assessment, we concluded that it was not more-likely-than-not that the fair value of any of our reporting units was below its respective carrying value as of October 1, 2025.

For all of our reporting units, management continued to monitor events and circumstances after the October 1 annual testing date and through December 31, 2025, concluding that it was not more-likely-than-not that the fair value of any of our reporting units was below its respective carrying value as of December 31, 2025.

Management cannot predict the occurrence of certain events or changes in circumstances that might adversely affect the value of goodwill. We continue to monitor the aforementioned conditions, the general macroeconomic environment, including the interest rate environment, inflationary pressures, and the potential for a prolonged economic downturn or recession, as well as other factors, including those listed in "Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements" and "Risk Factors" in Part I, Item 1A of this Annual Report. Further persistence of the aforementioned conditions and these other factors could result in impairment charges in future periods.

Business Overview

We are a mission driven company designed to help our members achieve financial independence in order to realize their ambitions. We were founded in 2011 and have developed a suite of financial products that offers the speed, selection, content and convenience that only an integrated digital platform can provide. Everything we do today is geared toward helping our members “Get Your Money Right” and we strive to innovate and build ways for our members to achieve this goal.

In order to help achieve our mission, we are a member-centric, one-stop shop for financial services that, through our Lending and Financial Services products, allows members to borrow, save, spend, invest and protect their money. We refer to our customers as “members” and “clients”, as defined under “Key Business Metrics”. We offer personal loans, student loans, home loans and related servicing and offer a variety of financial services products, such as SoFi Money, SoFi Credit Card, SoFi Invest and SoFi Relay, that provide more daily interactions with our members, as well as products and capabilities, such as SoFi At Work, that are designed to appeal to enterprises. Lending related services that we offer through our Loan Platform Business help a broader range of borrowers to find lending solutions, through our relationships with members as well as third-party enterprise partners. Our Technology Platform supports innovation for a broad range of enterprises, with offerings that give clients the ability to create, launch and run financial products.

In February 2025, we expanded our SoFi Plus membership program, which provides a range of benefits across our suite of products including an attractive APY with a SoFi Money account, extra cash back rewards, exclusive rate discounts on loans and more. Members are able to access these membership benefits through a monthly subscription or direct deposit to a checking and savings account.

See Item 1. “Business—Our Reportable Segments” for a discussion of our segments and their corresponding products. The discussion below focuses on the ways in which our key products and services within each reportable segment generate revenues and/or incur expenses for the Company.

Business Highlights

SoFi is a financial services company that leverages technology to serve people and enterprises. SoFi's continuous investments in innovation and brand building yielded several milestones in the year, fueling significant member and product growth and paving the way for future growth.

We achieved a number of key financial achievements in the year ended December 31, 2024, including total net revenue of $2.7 billion, representing an increase of 26% over total net revenue in 2023. Diluted earnings per share for the year ended December 31, 2024 was $0.39 compared to a loss per share of $0.36 for the year ended December 31, 2023. Diluted EPS for the 2024 period does not include benefits from the gain on convertible debt exchanges in the first and third quarters of 2024.

Continued growth in both total members and products, along with improving operating efficiency, reflects the benefits of our broad product suite and Financial Services Productivity Loop strategy. Total members reached over 10.1 million as of December 31, 2024, a 34% year over year increase, while total products reached over 14.7 million as of December 31, 2024, a 32% year over year increase.

Lending segment contribution profit of $890.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2024 increased 8% over 2023. Contribution margin for 2024 and 2023 was 60%. Lending segment performance was driven by an increase in net interest income primarily attributable to higher loan balances in 2024. We recorded an average net interest margin of 5.80% for the year ended December 31, 2024, a decrease of 8 bps, compared to 5.88% in 2023. The decrease in net interest margin for the year ended December 31, 2024 was driven by an increase in average interest-bearing liabilities of 44% and a decrease in yields on interest-earning assets of 7 bps, partially offset by an increase in average interest-earning assets of 38% and a decrease on the average rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities of 17 bps. Origination volume for our Lending products increased 33%, primarily driven by continued strong demand for personal loans and home loans, as well as growth in the student loan business, despite operating in unpredictable macroeconomic headwinds. Student loan demand increased in the latter part of 2023 following the resumption of principal and interest payments on federally-held student loans and we continued to experience increasing student loan demand with interest rate reductions in 2024. Our acquisition of Wyndham in the second quarter of 2023 provided increased capacity and capabilities for our home loans product, which we expect to continue to provide benefits. This contributed to a notable increase in 2024 in home loans alongside further diversification and expansion of our home loan product offerings, such as home equity loans. We expect overall home loans growth could be correlated with interest rate movements in 2025.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Technology Platform segment contribution profit of $127.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2024 increased 34% over 2023, and total net revenue of $395.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2024 increased 12% over 2023. Technology Platform total enabled client accounts increased 15% year-over-year, to 168 million up from 145 million in the prior year period. Growth was driven primarily by account growth in Latin America, consumer brands in the United States and clients with innovative use cases like earned wage access and money movement, as well as contribution from new clients. Our pipeline of potential clients spans banks, consumer brands, and fintech companies across consumer and B2B segments, which we believe offer larger and more durable revenue. We believe our pipeline of potential new clients is strong, and the investments we have made in this segment have expanded our market opportunity. We continue to make significant strides in our strategy of leveraging our unique product suite to pursue diversified growth and expansion to serve a broad range of clients, including governmental agencies, consumer brands and financial institutions. Entering 2025, we are seeing strong demand from new partners as we signed several notable deals that represent more predictable revenue from larger established brands with higher average deal sizes. We expect modest growth in segment revenue to continue in 2025 and beyond, as implementation and integration cycles from these deals will be gradual and with revenue impacts expected in 2026.

Within our Financial Services segment, contribution profit of $307.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2024 significantly improved compared to a contribution loss of $0.3 million in 2023. Total net revenue of $821.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2024 increased 88% over 2023. We achieved continued strong growth in deposits, ending the year with $26.0 billion of deposits as of December 31, 2024, allowing us to maintain diversified sources of funding and driving an increase in net interest income earned on our deposits. Noninterest income grew 144% from the prior year period to $248.1 million in the current year. This increase was driven by our Loan Platform Business, where we originate loans on behalf of third parties and refer pre-qualified borrowers to origination partners. During the year, the Loan Platform Business generated $141.6 million in loan platform fees, driven by $2.1 billion of personal loans originated on behalf of third parties, as well as referrals. In addition to our Loan Platform business, we continued to see growth in interchange fees driven by increased spend across Money and Credit Card. By continuously innovating with new and relevant offerings, features and rewards for members, we grew total Financial Services products by 34% year-over-year to 12.7 million at year-end. We continue to achieve scale in our marketing spend and improvement in operating leverage in the segment. We expect to continue to scale our Loan Platform Business services and increase our fee-based revenue through increased brand awareness and network effects, and continue to improve contribution profit in the segment.

The strength of our results underscores our belief that our suite of differentiated products and services provides the foundation for a diversified business that can endure through market cycles as well as in the face of exogenous factors. For instance, our access to multiple channels of funding, including deposit and loan warehouse funding, provides increased optionality in sourcing liquidity through different environments and periods of capital markets volatility, as well as increases our flexibility to capture additional net interest margin and optimize returns. This typically provides more stable earnings in any macroeconomic environment but is particularly important during times of macroeconomic volatility.

During 2024, we continued to have strong deposit contribution from direct deposit members. We expect that our funding mix will continue to move towards deposit funding, which generally has a lower borrowing cost of funds than warehouse financing . We also continue to provide our members with access to expanded FDIC insurance coverage through a network of participating banks in our Insured Deposit Program, further enhancing the benefits of our offering to our members. Our total capital ratio, as calculated under applicable regulatory capital rules, was 16.2% as of December 31, 2024. See Note 21. Regulatory Capital to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.

Lending Segment

Net interest income, which we define as the difference between the earned interest income and interest expense to finance loans, is a key component of the profitability of our Lending segment. Lending segment net interest income represents the difference between interest income earned on our loans and an FTP charge for the segment’s use of funds to originate loans, which can fluctuate based on changes in interest rates, funding curves, the composition of our balance sheet and the availability of capital.

Technology Platform Segment

We earn technology products and solutions fees for providing an integrated platform as a service for financial and non-financial institutions. Many of our Technology Platform segment contracts are multi-year contracts. In certain of our contracts, we provide for a variety of integrated platform services, which vary by client and are either non-cancellable or cancellable with a substantive payment. Pricing structures under these contracts are typically volume-based, or a combination of activity and volume-based, and payment terms are predominantly monthly in arrears. Many of these contracts contain minimum monthly payments, which may result in credits if we do not meet the agreed upon monthly service levels. We also earn subscription and service fees for providing software licenses and associated services, including implementation, maintenance and subsequent

development work. We charge a recurring subscription fee for the software license and related maintenance services. Other software-related services are billed on a periodic basis as the services are provided. Certain arrangements for software and related services contain a provision for a fixed upfront payment.

Financial Services Segment

We earn revenues in connection with our Financial Services segment primarily in the ways listed below. See Note 20. Business Segment and Geographic Information and Note 3. Revenue to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information on the FTP framework and Financial Services revenue from contracts with customers. Certain products, such as our complementary product SoFi Relay, do not provide direct sources of revenue. Revenue is driven primarily by variability in product utilization by members, as well as volume of transactions related to arrangements that we enter into with enterprise partners as outlined below.

•Net interest income: Net interest income is a key component of the profitability of our Financial Services segment as it relates primarily to our SoFi Money and credit card products. Net interest income on SoFi Money is based on interest income determined using our FTP framework, net of interest expense based on the interest rate offered to our members on their deposits. Net interest income on credit card is based on the contractual interest included in credit card agreements, net of interest expense as determined using the FTP framework.

•Loan Platform Business, other fees: Through our Loan Platform Business, we originate loans on behalf of third-party partners, for which we receive a specified fee upon sale. The fee includes components for a fixed price per loan and recognition of servicing assets. These fees accounted for 36% of our total Financial Services noninterest income for the year ended December 31, 2024.

•Referral fees: Through strategic partnerships, we earn a specified referral fee in connection with referral activity we facilitate through our platform, inclusive of referral fees generated through our Loan Platform Business for providing pre-qualified borrower referrals (referred loans) to a third-party partner who separately contracts with a loan originator. Referral fees are paid to us by third-party partners that offer services to end users who do not use one of our product offerings, but who were referred to the partners through our platform. Our referral fee is calculated as either a fixed price per successful referral, a percentage of the funded loan, or a percentage of the transaction volume between the enterprise partners and referred consumers. Total referral fees, inclusive of referral fees generated through our Loan Platform Business, accounted for 24% of our total Financial Services noninterest income for the year ended December 31, 2024.

•Interchange fees: We earn interchange fees from our SoFi-branded debit cards and credit cards. These fees are remitted by merchants and represent a percentage of the underlying transaction value processed through a payment network. We engage a card association and enter into contracts that establish the shared economics of SoFi-branded transaction cards. Interchange fees accounted for 27% of our total Financial Services noninterest income for the year ended December 31, 2024.

•Brokerage fees: We earn brokerage fees primarily from our share lending and payment for order flow arrangements related to our SoFi Invest product, in which we benefit through a negotiated multi-year revenue sharing arrangement, since our members' brokerage activity drives the share lending and payment for order flow volume. Brokerage fees accounted for 9% of our total Financial Services noninterest income for the year ended December 31, 2024.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This Annual Report on Form 10-K presents information about certain non-GAAP financial measures provided as supplements to the results provided in accordance with GAAP. Our management and Board of Directors use these non-GAAP measures, to evaluate our operating performance, formulate business plans, help better assess our overall liquidity position, and make strategic decisions, including those relating to operating expenses and the allocation of internal resources. Accordingly, we believe that these non-GAAP measures provide useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating our operating results in the same manner as our management and Board of Directors. These non-GAAP measures have limitations as analytical tools, and should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, the analysis of other GAAP financial measures. Other companies may not use these non-GAAP measures or may use similar measures that are defined in a different manner. Therefore, our non-GAAP measures may not be directly comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies.

Adjusted Net Revenue

Adjusted net revenue is a non-GAAP measure. Adjusted net revenue is defined as total net revenue, adjusted to exclude the fair value changes in servicing rights and residual interests classified as debt due to valuation inputs and assumptions changes, which relate only to our Lending segment, as well as gains and losses on extinguishment of debt. We adjust total net revenue to exclude these items, as they are non-cash charges that are not realized during the period or not indicative of our core operating performance, and therefore positive or negative changes do not impact the cash available to fund our operations. Management believes this measure is useful because it enables management and investors to assess our underlying operating performance and cash available to fund our operations. In addition, management uses this measure to better decide on the proper expenses to authorize for each of our operating segments, to ultimately help achieve target contribution profit margins.

(1)Reflects changes in fair value inputs and assumptions on servicing rights, including conditional prepayment, default rates and discount rates. These assumptions are highly sensitive to market interest rate changes and are not indicative of our performance or results of operations. Moreover, these non-cash charges are unrealized during the period and, therefore, have no impact on our cash flows from operations.

(2)Reflects changes in fair value inputs and assumptions on residual interests classified as debt, including conditional prepayment, default rates and discount rates. When third parties finance our consolidated securitization VIEs by purchasing residual interests, we receive proceeds at the time of the closing of the securitization and, thereafter, pass along contractual cash flows to the residual interest owner. These residual debt obligations are measured at fair value on a recurring basis, but they have no impact on our initial financing proceeds, our future obligations to the residual interest owner (because future residual interest claims are limited to contractual securitization collateral cash flows), or the general operations of our business.

(3)Reflects gain on extinguishment of debt. Gains and losses are recognized during the period of extinguishment for the difference between the net carrying amount of debt extinguished and the fair value of equity securities issued.

Adjusted Contribution Margin and Incremental Adjusted Contribution Margin — Lending

Adjusted contribution margin and incremental adjusted contribution margin are non-GAAP measures and relate only to our Lending segment. Adjusted contribution margin is defined as segment contribution profit (loss) for the Lending segment, divided by adjusted net revenue for the Lending segment, a non-GAAP measure. Incremental adjusted contribution margin is defined as the change in segment contribution profit (loss) for our Lending segment, divided by change in adjusted net revenue for the Lending segment. See ‘Adjusted Net Revenue’ above for a reconciliation of Lending segment adjusted net revenue.

Management believes adjusted contribution margin metrics are useful because they enable management and investors to assess the underlying operating performance of our Lending segment, by removing the impact of changes in volume over periods to present a comparable view of segment contribution profit (loss), which is a measure of the direct profitability of each of our reportable segments, as a percentage of segment adjusted net revenue for the Lending segment during each period.

Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin and Incremental Adjusted EBITDA Margin

Adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin and incremental adjusted EBITDA margin are non-GAAP measures. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income (loss), adjusted to exclude, as applicable: (i) corporate borrowing-based interest expense (our adjusted EBITDA measure is not adjusted for warehouse or securitization-based interest expense, nor deposit interest expense and finance lease liability interest expense, as these are direct operating expenses), (ii) income tax expense (benefit), (iii) depreciation and amortization, (iv) share-based expense (inclusive of equity-based payments to non-employees), (v) restructuring charges, (vi) impairment expense (inclusive of goodwill impairment and property, equipment and software abandonments), (vii) transaction-related expenses, (viii) foreign currency impacts related to operations in highly inflationary countries, (ix) fair value changes in each of servicing rights and residual interests classified as debt due to valuation assumptions, (x) gain on extinguishment of debt, and (xi) other charges, as appropriate, that are not expected to recur and are not indicative of our core operating performance.

Adjusted EBITDA margin is computed as adjusted EBITDA divided by adjusted net revenue. Incremental adjusted EBITDA margin is defined as the change in adjusted EBITDA, divided by change in adjusted net revenue. See ‘Adjusted Net Revenue’ above for a reconciliation of this non-GAAP measure.

Management believes adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin and incremental adjusted EBITDA margin are useful measures for period-over-period comparisons of our business. These measures enable management and investors to assess our core operating performance or results of operations by removing the effects of certain non-cash items and charges, as well as the impact of changes in volume over periods as applicable. In addition, management uses these measures to help evaluate cash flows generated from operations and the extent of additional capital, if any, required to invest in strategic initiatives.

___________________

(1)Our adjusted EBITDA measure adjusts for corporate borrowing-based interest expense, as these expenses are a function of our capital structure. Corporate borrowing-based interest expense includes interest on our revolving credit facility, as well as interest expense and the amortization of debt discount and

93

TABLE OF CONTENTS

debt issuance costs on our convertible notes. Revolving credit facility interest expense in 2024 and 2023 increased due to elevated average interest rates relative to the prior year on identical outstanding debt. Convertible note interest expense in 2024 increased related to the issuance of interest-bearing convertible senior notes during the first quarter of 2024.

(2)Our income tax position in 2024 was primarily due to the release in the fourth quarter of a $258 million valuation allowance against certain deferred tax assets based on our reassessment of their realizability. Income taxes in 2023 were primarily attributable to income tax benefits from foreign losses in jurisdictions with net deferred tax liabilities related to Technisys, offset by income tax expense associated with the profitability of SoFi Bank in state jurisdictions where separate filings are required, as well as federal taxes where our tax credits and loss carryforwards may be limited. Income taxes in 2022 were primarily attributable to tax expense at SoFi Lending Corp and SoFi Bank due to profitability in state jurisdictions where separate filings are required and recognition of expense from Technisys in certain Latin American countries where separate returns are filed. The expense was partially offset by deferred tax benefits from the amortization of intangible assets acquired in the Technisys Merger. See Note 17. Income Taxes to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.

(3)Depreciation and amortization expense in 2024 was primarily related to our internally-developed software and intangibles. Depreciation and amortization expense in 2023 increased compared to 2022 primarily in connection with acquisitions and growth in our internally-developed software balance.

(4)Restructuring charges in 2024 relate to legal entity restructuring. Restructuring charges in 2023 primarily included employee-related wages, benefits and severance associated with a small reduction in headcount in our Technology Platform segment in the first quarter of 2023 and expenses in the fourth quarter of 2023 related to a reduction in headcount across the Company, which do not reflect expected future operating expenses and are not indicative of our core operating performance.

(5)Impairment expense in 2023 includes $247,174 related to goodwill impairment, and $1,243 related to a sublease arrangement, which are not indicative of our core operating performance. See Note 8. Goodwill and Intangible Assets to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information on goodwill impairment.

(6)Foreign currency charges reflect the impacts of highly inflationary accounting for our operations in Argentina, which are related to our Technology Platform segment and commenced in the first quarter of 2022 with the Technisys Merger. For the year ended December 31, 2023, all amounts were reflected in the fourth quarter, as inter-quarter amounts were determined to be immaterial. Amounts in 2022 were determined to be immaterial.

(7)Transaction-related expenses in 2024 and 2023 included financial advisory and professional services costs associated with our acquisition of Wyndham. Transaction-related expenses in 2022 primarily included financial advisory and professional services costs associated with our acquisition of Technisys.

(8)Reflects changes in fair value inputs and assumptions, including market servicing costs, conditional prepayment, default rates and discount rates. This non-cash change is unrealized during the period and, therefore, has no impact on our cash flows from operations. As such, these positive and negative changes in fair value attributable to assumption changes are adjusted out of net income (loss) to provide management and financial users with better visibility into the earnings available to finance our operations.

(9)Reflects changes in fair value inputs and assumptions, including conditional prepayment, default rates and discount rates. When third parties finance our consolidated VIEs through purchasing residual interests, we receive proceeds at the time of the securitization close and, thereafter, pass along contractual cash flows to the residual interest owner. These obligations are measured at fair value on a recurring basis, which has no impact on our initial financing proceeds, our future obligations to the residual interest owner (because future residual interest claims are limited to contractual securitization collateral cash flows), or the general operations of our business. As such, these positive and negative non-cash changes in fair value attributable to assumption changes are adjusted out of net income (loss) to provide management and financial users with better visibility into the earnings available to finance our operations.

(10)Reflects gain on extinguishment of debt. Gains and losses are recognized during the period of extinguishment for the difference between the net carrying amount of debt extinguished and the fair value of equity securities issued.

Adjusted Net Income (Loss), Adjusted Net Income Margin, Incremental Adjusted Net Income Margin and Adjusted EPS

Adjusted net income (loss), adjusted net income margin, incremental adjusted net income margin and adjusted diluted earnings (loss) are non-GAAP measures. Adjusted net income (loss) is defined as net income (loss), adjusted to exclude, as applicable, goodwill impairment expense and certain income tax benefits that are not expected to recur and are not indicative of our core operating performance.

Adjusted diluted earnings (loss) per share (“adjusted EPS”) is a non-GAAP financial measure that adjusts GAAP diluted earnings (loss) per share. Adjusted EPS is computed by dividing net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders, adjusted to exclude, as applicable, goodwill impairment expense and certain income tax benefits that are not expected to recur and are not indicative of our core operating performance, by the diluted weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period.

Adjusted net income margin is computed as adjusted net income (loss) divided by adjusted net revenue. Incremental adjusted net income margin is defined as the change in adjusted net income (loss), divided by change in adjusted net revenue. See ‘Adjusted Net Revenue’ above for a reconciliation of this non-GAAP measure.

Management believes adjusted net income (loss), adjusted net income margin, incremental adjusted net income margin and adjusted EPS are useful because they enable management and investors to assess our core operating performance or results of operations, by removing the effects of certain non-cash items and charges to present a comparable view for period over period comparisons of our business.

(1)In the fourth quarter of 2023, we transferred the crypto services provided by SoFi Digital Assets, LLC, and began closing existing digital assets accounts and removing the account from Invest products. This process was completed in the first quarter of 2024. As of December 31, 2023, SoFi Invest products included 265,595 digital assets accounts. Excluding these accounts (that were closed as part of the transfer of the crypto services), total products increased by 3,868,554, or 36%, and total financial services products increased by 3,521,206, or 38%, during the year ended December 31, 2024 .

See “Summary Results by Segment” for additional metrics we review at the segment level.

Members

We refer to our customers as “members”. We define a member as someone who has a lending relationship with us through origination and/or ongoing servicing, opened a financial services account, linked an external account to our platform or signed up for our credit score monitoring service. Our members have access to our CFPs, our member events, our content, educational material, news, and our tools and calculators, which are provided at no cost to the member. Additionally, our mobile application and website have a member home experience that is personalized and delivers content to a member about what they must do that day in their financial life, what they should consider doing that day in their financial life, and what they can do that day in their financial life. Beginning in the first quarter of 2024, we aligned our methodology for calculating member and product metrics with our member and product definitions to include co-borrowers, co-signers, and joint- and co-account holders, as applicable. Quarterly amounts for prior periods were determined to be immaterial and were not recast.

Once someone becomes a member, they are always considered a member unless they are removed in accordance with our terms of service, in which case, we adjust our total number of members. This could occur for a variety of reasons—including fraud or pursuant to certain legal processes—and, as our terms of service evolve together with our business practices, product offerings and applicable regulations, our grounds for removing members from our total member count could change. The determination that a member should be removed in accordance with our terms of service is subject to an evaluation process, following the completion, and based on the results, of which, relevant members and their associated products are removed from our total member count in the period in which such evaluation process concludes. However, depending on the length of the evaluation process, that removal may not take place in the same period in which the member was added to our member count or the same period in which the circumstances leading to their removal occurred. For this reason, our total member count may not yet reflect adjustments that may be made once ongoing evaluation processes, if any, conclude.

We view members as an indication not only of the size and a measurement of growth of our business, but also as a measure of the significant value of the data we have collected over time. The data we collect from our members helps us to, among other things: (i) assess loan life performance data on each loan in our ecosystem, which can inform risk-based interest rates that we can offer our members, (ii) understand our members’ spending behavior to identify and suggest other products we offer that may align with the members’ financial needs, and (iii) enhance our opportunities to sell additional products to our members, as our members represent a vital source of marketing opportunities. When we provide additional products to members, it helps improve our unit economics per member, as we save on marketing costs that we would otherwise incur to attract new members. It also increases the lifetime value of an individual member. This in turn enhances our Financial Services Productivity Loop.

Member growth is generally an indicator of future revenue, but is not directly correlated with revenues, since not all members who sign up for one of our products fully utilize or continue to use our products, and not all of our products (such as our complimentary product, SoFi Relay) provide direct sources of revenue.

Total Products

Total products refers to the aggregate number of lending and financial services products that our members have selected on our platform since our inception through the reporting date, whether or not the members are still registered for such products. Total products is a primary indicator of the size and reach of our Lending and Financial Services segments. Management relies on total products metrics to understand the effectiveness of our member acquisition efforts and to gauge the propensity for members to use more than one product.

In our Lending segment, total products refers to the number of personal loans, student loans and home loans that have been originated through our platform through the reporting date, inclusive of loans which we originate as part of our Loan Platform Business, whether or not such loans have been paid off. If a member has multiple loan products of the same loan product type, such as two personal loans, that is counted as a single product. However, if a member has multiple loan products across loan product types, such as one personal loan and one home loan, that is counted as two products. The account of a co-borrower or co-signer is not considered a separate lending product.

In our Financial Services segment, total products refers to the number of SoFi Money accounts (inclusive of checking and savings accounts held at SoFi Bank and cash management accounts), SoFi Invest accounts, SoFi Credit Card accounts (including accounts with a zero dollar balance at the reporting date), referred loans (which are originated by a third-party partner to which we provide pre-qualified borrower referrals), SoFi At Work accounts and SoFi Relay accounts (with either credit score monitoring enabled or external linked accounts) that have been opened through our platform through the reporting date. Checking and savings accounts are considered one account within our total products metric. Our SoFi Invest service is composed of two products: active investing accounts and robo-advisory accounts. Our members can select any one or combination of the types of SoFi Invest products. If a member has multiple SoFi Invest products of the same account type, such as two active investing accounts, that is counted as a single product. However, if a member has multiple SoFi Invest products across account types, such as one active investing account and one robo-advisory account, those separate account types are considered separate products. The account of a joint- or co-account holder is considered a separate financial services product. In the event a member is removed in accordance with our terms of service, as discussed under “Members” above, the member’s associated products are also removed.

Product growth is generally an indicator of future revenue, but is not directly correlated with revenues, since not all members who sign up for one of our products immediately or fully utilize or continue to use our products, and not all of our products (such as our complimentary product, SoFi Relay) provide direct sources of revenue. Further, product growth may not directly correlate with expense growth as a result of the effects of the Financial Services Productivity Loop.

Technology Platform Total Accounts

In our Technology Platform segment, total accounts refers to the number of open accounts at Galileo as of the reporting date. We include intercompany accounts on the Galileo platform as a service in our total accounts metric to better align with the Technology Platform segment revenue reported in Note 20. Business Segment and Geographic Information to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, which includes intercompany revenue. Intercompany revenue is eliminated in consolidation. Total accounts is a primary indicator of the accounts dependent upon our technology platform to use virtual card products, virtual wallets, make peer-to-peer and bank-to-bank transfers, receive early paychecks, separate savings from spending balances, make debit transactions and rely upon real-time authorizations, all of which result in revenues for the

Technology Platform segment. We do not measure total accounts for the Technisys products and solutions, as the revenue model is not primarily dependent upon being a fully integrated, stand-ready service.

Key Factors Affecting Operating Results

Our future operating results and cash flows are dependent upon a number of opportunities, challenges and other factors, including our loan origination volume, financial services products and member activity on our platform, growth in technology platform clients, competition and industry trends, general economic conditions and our ability to optimize our national bank charter.

Origination Volume

Our Lending segment is our largest segment, comprising 56%, 65% and 72% of total net revenue during the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively. We are dependent upon the addition of new members and new activity from existing members to generate origination volume, which we believe is a contributor to Lending segment net revenue. We believe we have a high-quality loan portfolio, as indicated by our Lending segment weighted average origination FICO score of 750 during the year ended December 31, 2024.

We also originate and sell loans in support of our Loan Platform Business, through which we provide lending related services to third-party partners. We maintain the same lending relationship with borrowers across all loans that we originate, inclusive of those originated on behalf of a third-party partner and as such, reflect these products within our Lending segment total products. This enables borrowers to gain access to all the benefits of becoming a SoFi member, and enhances our opportunities to sell additional products from across our platform to these members. Revenue from the Loan Platform Business is fee-based.

See “Industry Trends and General Economic Conditions” for the impact of specific economic factors on origination volume.

Member Growth and Activity

We have invested heavily in our platform and are dependent on continued member growth, as well as our ability to generate additional revenues from our existing members using additional products and services. Member growth and activity is critical to our ability to increase our scale and earn a return on our technology and product investments. Growth in members and member activity will depend heavily on our ability to continue to offer attractive products and services at sustainable costs and our continued member acquisition and marketing efforts.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Product Offerings

Our aim is to develop and offer a best-in-class integrated financial services platform with products that meet the broad objectives of our members and the lifecycle of their financial needs. We have invested, and continue to invest, heavily in the development, improvement and marketing of our suite of lending and financial services products and are dependent on continued growth in the number of products selected by our members, as well as our ability to build trust and reliability between our members and our platform to reinforce the effects of the Financial Services Productivity Loop. In order to deliver on our strategy, we aim to foster positive member experiences designed to lead to more product adoption by existing members, leading to enhanced profitability for each additional product by lowering overall member acquisition costs.

Galileo Account Growth

Galileo primarily provides technology platform services to financial and non-financial institutions, which enabled us to diversify our business from a primarily consumer-based business to also serve enterprises that rely upon Galileo’s integrated platform as a service to serve their clients. We are dependent on growth in the number of accounts at Galileo, which is an indication of the amount of users that are dependent upon the technology platform for a variety of products and services, including virtual card products, virtual wallets, peer-to-peer and bank-to-bank transfers, early paychecks and relying on real-time authorizations, all of which generate revenue for Galileo.

Operating as a Bank

A key element of our long-term strategy included securing a national bank charter, which we acquired in the first quarter of 2022 and began operating SoFi Bank (formerly Golden Pacific), and SoFi Technologies became a bank holding company. Operating as a bank allows for expanded access to multiple channels of funding, including deposits through SoFi Bank and borrowing capacity through the FHLB and Federal Reserve, which provides increased optionality in sourcing liquidity through different environments and periods of capital markets volatility, as well as increases our flexibility to capture additional net interest margin and optimize returns. Since acquiring our bank license, we have shifted and continue to expect our funding mix to move towards deposit funding, which generally has a lower cost of funds than warehouse financing.

See Part I, Item 1. “Company Overview—SoFi Bank” and “Government Supervision and Regulation” for a discussion of the key expected financial benefits to us of operating a national bank and discussion of supervision and regulation that we are subject to. See Part I, Item 1A. “Risk Factors” for discussion of certain potential risks related to being a bank holding company.

Industry Trends and General Economic Conditions

Our results of operations have historically been relatively resilient to economic downturns but in the future may be impacted by the relative strength of the overall economy and its effect on unemployment, asset markets and consumer spending. As general economic conditions improve or deteriorate, the amount of consumer disposable income tends to fluctuate, which in turn impacts consumer spending levels and the willingness of consumers to take out loans to finance purchases or invest in financial assets. Specific economic factors, such as interest rate levels, changes in monetary and related policies, unemployment rates, market volatility, consumer confidence and changing expectations for inflation, also influence consumer spending, saving, investing and borrowing patterns.

The Federal Reserve decreased the benchmark interest rate in September, November and December 2024, and additional rate cuts are anticipated by many financial market participants in 2025, although the timing of such cuts, if any, remains uncertain. We have continued to see strong demand for our deposits as a result of our competitive interest rate offering and access to expanded FDIC insurance coverage through a network of participating banks in our Insured Deposit Program. High or rising interest rates have unfavorably impacted, and could continue to unfavorably impact, demand for refinancing loan products. In addition, if the Federal Reserve does not effectively curb inflation, interest rates were to rise unexpectedly or too quickly, or macroeconomic conditions deteriorate or do not improve, it could have a negative impact on the overall economy and result in increased unemployment, which could adversely impact our results of operations. In addition to benchmark interest rate considerations, economic and market volatility may adversely impact our liquidity, results of operations and financial condition. Our increased personal loan annualized charge-off rate year over year was reflective of our expectation of credit metrics to revert over time to more normalized levels, but remains healthy, while our lower credit card annualized charge-off rate was reflective of improvement in credit card delinquency rates. Negative changes to macroeconomic conditions may result in decreased demand for our products, increased operating costs and negatively impact our results of operations.

Fair Value of Loans

We measure our personal loans, student loans and home loans at fair value. Our fair value adjustments on loans impact our consolidated results of operations and include adjustments related to loans originated during the period, loans held at the

101

SoFi Technologies, Inc.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

balance sheet date, as well as gains (losses) on loans sold or repurchased during the period. Fair value adjustments made in each reporting period are impacted by factors such as, among others, interest rates, weighted average coupon, credit spreads, actual and estimated losses, prepayment speeds, duration and previous loan sale execution on similar loans. In determining our fair value assumptions, we incorporate recent data impacting the capital markets, as well as factors specific to us. Changes in these factors, either positive or negative, can have a material impact on our results of operations.

The following table summarizes the significant inputs to the fair value model for personal and student loans:

Personal LoansStudent Loans
December 31, 2024September 30, 2024December 31, 2024September 30, 2024
Weighted average coupon rate(1)13.4%13.5%5.9%5.9%

Weighted average discount rate5.29%4.78%4.40%3.99%

___________________

(1)Represents the average coupon rate on loans held on balance sheet, weighted by unpaid principal balance outstanding at the balance sheet date.

As of the fourth quarter of 2024 relative to the third quarter of 2024, we observed the following trends:

•The weighted average coupon rates on personal loans decreased by 10 bps, which reflects the impacts of loan sales and rate reduction passed on to borrowers related to drops during the fourth quarter. The weighted average coupon rates on student loans increased 4 bps, which reflects the impacts of loan sales.

•The weighted average conditional prepayment rate on student loans increased by 28 bps, which reflects increases in observed prepayments during the fourth quarter.

•The weighted average discount rates on personal loans and student loans increased by 51 bps and 41, respectively. For personal loans, our discount rate assumptions increased in the fourth quarter due to benchmark interest rates increasing by 63 bps, partially offset by spreads tightening by 12 bps. For student loans, our discount rate assumptions increased in the fourth quarter due to benchmark interest rates increasing by 76 bps, partially offset by credit spreads tightening by 35 bps. Credit spread changes are indicated by asset-backed security and secondary markets.

•Annualized net charge-off rates on personal loans in the fourth quarter of 2024 were 3.37%, which remained lower than the assumed weighted average default rates in our fair value model of 4.55%. Personal loan charge-offs during the third and fourth quarters of 2024 were impacted by delinquent loan sales of $81.0 million and $90.0 million, respectively, of aggregate unpaid principal balance. Annualized net charge-off rates on student loans in the fourth quarter of 2024 of 0.62% were lower than the assumed weighted average default rates in our fair value model of 0.73%. Our fair value assumption for annual default rate incorporates fair value markdowns on loans beginning when they are 10 days or more delinquent, with additional markdowns at 30 days, 60 days and 90 days past due.

The combination of these and other factors resulted in fair value losses recognized on our personal and student loans portfolios during the fourth quarter of 2024.

Student Loan Relief

While we expect we may continue to see an increase in student loan refinancing volume as borrowers may look to refinance at a lower rate as interest rates decline or, given the high interest rate environment compared to recent historical periods, may look to extend the loan term, the timing and impact to our student loan refinancing product will largely depend on expectations regarding the impact of the recent change in the U.S. presidential administration, the interest rate environment, how competitive our student loan refinancing products are compared to our competitors and macroeconomic factors. For example, in the past, the government has provided relief measures for federal student loan borrowers, including, among others, a federal student loan payment moratorium and debt forgiveness measures that were put forward by the Biden administration. Although we can’t predict the measures related to student loans, if any, that the Trump administration may pursue, any changes in law, regulations or governmental policies could impact our business in ways that are difficult to predict.

Key Components of Results of Operations

Net Interest Income

Net interest income primarily reflects the excess of interest income earned on our loans over the interest expense incurred to fund such loans. Net interest income is impacted by loan origination volume, the level of securitization activity, the amount of time we hold loans on our consolidated balance sheet and the volume of member deposits, as well as prevailing interest rates, which impact the rates we receive on our loans and securitization-related investments in bonds and residual interest positions, and the rates we incur from our funding sources including our warehouse facilities, securitization debt and member deposits at SoFi Bank. We also incur interest expense related to our revolving credit facility and convertible notes, as well as on our convertible notes in the form of amortization of debt issuance costs and original issue discount.

Noninterest Income

Noninterest income primarily consists of: (i) fee-based revenue recognized from contracts with customers, which primarily relates to our technology products and solutions revenues and the growth and expansion of our financial services offerings, inclusive of referral fees generated through our Loan Platform Business for providing pre-qualified borrower referrals (referred loans) to be originated by a third-party partner, (ii) fees earned upon the sale of loans originated on behalf of third party partners through our Loan Platform Business, (iii) loan origination fees, whereby a borrower may optionally elect to pay origination fees to qualify for a lower annual percentage rate, (iv) fair value changes in loans while we hold them on our consolidated balance sheet and our securitization activities, inclusive of our hedging activities, (v) gains on sales of loans transferred into the securitization or whole loan sale channels, (vi) the income we receive from our loan servicing activities, as well as the assumption of servicing rights from third parties, (vii) gains and losses on non-securitization investments, and (viii) gains and losses on extinguishment of debt.

Noninterest Expense

Noninterest expense primarily relates to the following categories of expenses: (i) technology and product development, (ii) sales and marketing, (iii) cost of operations, and (iv) general and administrative. Certain costs are included within each of these line items, such as compensation and benefits-related expense (inclusive of share-based compensation expense), professional services, depreciation and amortization, and occupancy-related costs. We allocate certain costs to each of these categories based on department-level headcounts. We generally expect these expenses to increase in absolute dollars as our business continues to grow. Noninterest expense also includes goodwill impairment, related to the Galileo and Technisys reporting units.

Directly Attributable Expenses

As presented within “Summary Results by Segment”, in our determination of the contribution profit (loss) for our reportable segments, we allocate certain expenses that are directly attributable to the segment. Directly attributable expenses primarily include compensation and benefits and sales and marketing, inclusive of member incentives, and vary based on the amount of activity within each segment. Directly attributable expenses also include loan origination and servicing expenses, professional services, product fulfillment and lead generation. Expenses are attributed to the reportable segments using either direct costs of the segment or labor costs that can be attributed based upon the allocation of employee time for individual products.

(1)Average balances were calculated on daily carrying balances for the 2024 and 2023 periods, and on thirteen-month ending carrying balances for the 2022 period, as the daily analysis in the prior periods would have involved undue burden. Both average calculations are representative of our operations.

(2)Interest expense on other debt primarily includes debt issuance and discount expense, as well as interest expense on the revolving credit facility and convertible senior notes.

(3)Net interest income is calculated as the excess of total interest income on interest-earning assets over total interest expense on interest-bearing liabilities.

(4)Net interest margin is calculated as net interest income divided by total average interest-earning assets.

2024 vs. 2023. Net interest income increased by $454.7 million, or 36%, during the year ended December 31, 2024 compared to the year ended December 31, 2023, and net interest margin decreased by 8 basis points. Average interest-earning assets increased by 38% and average yields decreased by 7 basis points overall, while average interest-bearing liabilities increased by 44% and the average cost of interest-bearing liabilities decreased by 17 basis points.

The increases in net interest income were primarily driven by (i) higher interest income from personal loans and student loans of $602.1 million, which was primarily a function of increases in the average balance and origination volume, as

105

TABLE OF CONTENTS

well as longer loan holding periods, (ii) higher interest income from investment securities of $54.2 million primarily attributable to higher average balances, (iii) higher interest income from interest-bearing deposits with banks of $42.4 million, primarily attributed to higher average balances, and (iv) lower interest expense on warehouse facilities and securitizations of $124.9 million primarily attributable to lower average balances, which is reflective of our continued funding mix shift towards deposit funding. These items were partially offset by higher interest expense on deposits of $422.3 million primarily attributable to higher average balances.

2023 vs. 2022. Net interest income increased by $677.6 million, or 116%, during the year ended December 31, 2023 compared to the year ended December 31, 2022, and net interest margin increased by 48 basis points. The increases were primarily driven by higher interest income from (i) personal loans, which was primarily a function of increases in the average balance and origination volume, as well as longer loan holding periods for both personal and student loans, and (ii) interest-bearing deposits with banks, which reflected our strong liquidity position in a rising interest rate environment. Average interest-earning assets increased by 98%, and average yields increased by 242 basis points.

These increases were partially offset by higher interest expense on deposits attributable to a higher average balance and higher interest rates offered to our members, and higher interest expense on warehouse facilities attributable to a higher average balance and higher interest rates incurred on our facilities, all of which are reflective of the higher interest rate environment year over year.

2024 vs. 2023. Total noninterest income increased by $97.3 million, or 11%, for the year ended December 31, 2024 compared to the year ended December 31, 2023. The increase was primarily attributable to: (i) in loan origination, sales and securitizations, higher origination fees of $242.9 million primarily related to a product feature offered on personal loans, whereby a borrower may optionally elect to pay origination fees to qualify for a lower annual percentage rate; (ii) growth in our Loan Platform Business of $121.4 million composed of an increase of $108.0 million reported in loan platform fees related to revenue from loans that we originate on behalf of third parties and pre-qualified borrower referrals to third-party loan origination partners, as well as a related increase in servicing income of $13.4 million; (iii) in other, an increase in gains on extinguishment of debt of $47.9 million, and an increase in interchange fee revenue of $32.4 million on higher volume; and (iv) in technology products and solutions, an increase in technology services fee revenue of $26.3 million driven by increased processing and service arrangement activity among our integrated technology solutions clients as well as account growth.

These increases were partially offset by lower revenue in loan origination, sales and securitizations reflecting: (i) higher personal and student loan net charge-offs of $172.5 million, primarily driven by growth in the portfolios and elevated charge off rates; (ii) a net decrease of $111.0 million related to the following: lower fair value gains on personal loans, which were primarily impacted by smaller decreases in discount rate assumptions during 2024 (a decrease of $371.2 million); lower fair value gains on student loans, which were primarily impacted by higher discount rate assumptions (a decrease of $77.7 million; and gains on student loan, personal loan and risk retention interest rate swap positions during 2024 compared to losses in 2023, primarily driven by larger increases in interest rates in the 2024 period (an increase of $337.9 million). In addition, servicing income decreased $28.4 million primarily related to unfavorable changes in valuation inputs and assumptions for personal loans and student loans, which was primarily attributable to increased prepayment rate and default rate assumptions, respectively, during 2024; and (iii) higher losses of $66.1 million on personal loan sales in the 2024 period, and were due to both price and volume factors, as well as delinquent loan sales in the 2024 period only.

2023 vs. 2022. Total noninterest income decreased by $128.4 million, or 13%, for the year ended December 31, 2023 compared to the year ended December 31, 2022, which was primarily attributable to: (i) higher personal loan write-offs in 2023, (ii) higher origination fees primarily related to a new product feature offered on personal loans, whereby a borrower may optionally elect to pay origination fees to qualify for a lower annual percentage rate, (iii) the net effect of higher income related to in period originations, loan sale execution and fair value adjustments on loans and securitization loans, which were primarily impacted by higher personal loan origination volume, lower student loan prepayment assumptions, and an increase in securitization loan fair market values primarily associated with a consolidated securitization transaction in the first quarter of 2023, partially offset by losses in 2023 compared to gains in 2022 on loan hedging and risk retention hedge activities due to smaller increases in interest rates during the 2023 period, (iv) growth in technology products and solutions fees largely driven by revenue contribution from Technisys for the full period in 2023, (v) increased interchange revenue, and (vi) gain on extinguishment of debt during 2023.

2024 vs. 2023. The provision for credit losses was $31.7 million for the year-ended December 31, 2024, reflecting net charge-offs of $39.6 million and an allowance release of $8.0 million. Net charge-offs of $39.6 million decreased $1.4 million compared to the year ended December 31, 2023, driven by lower credit card charge-offs primarily due to improved delinquency rate (total credit card delinquency rate was 4.8%, down approximately 210 bps from the comparative period) as a result of tighter underwriting standards and risk mitigation actions. The allowance release of $8.0 million was also primarily related to our credit card products, reflecting improved credit quality of the portfolio, including higher borrower FICO scores. The prior year provision for the year ended December 31, 2023 was $54.9 million, reflecting net charge-offs of $41.0 million and an allowance increase of $13.3 million.

2023 vs. 2022. The provision for the year ended December 31, 2023 was $54.9 million and increase of $0.6 million from the prior year reflecting higher average credit card balances combined with elevated credit card loss rates during 2022.

(1)Total loans outstanding excludes accrued interest.

(2)The decrease in the ratio was primarily attributable to secured loans, for which we did not recognize an allowance for credit losses, as well as a decrease in the allowance for credit losses related to credit card on improved delinquencies.

We omitted the credit ratios associated with nonaccrual loans, as the balance of nonaccrual loans was immaterial.

serviced by us. We evaluate the credit quality of our secured loan portfolio relative to the fair value of the underlying collateral, reassessing it quarterly based on relevant information, including funded loan rates and historical loss experience. An allowance for credit losses is required when there is an expected credit loss after considering the fair value of the collateral as well as any anticipated future changes in the underlying collateral. As of December 31, 2024, based on this evaluation we did not recognize an allowance for credit losses on our secured loans.

___________________

(1)Average balances were calculated on daily carrying balances for the 2024 and 2023 periods, and on thirteen-month ending carrying balances for the 2022 period, as the daily analysis in the prior periods would have involved undue burden. Both average calculations are representative of our operations.

(2)Net charge-offs include both credit- and certain non-credit-related charge-offs. Non-credit related charge-offs, which primarily relate to alleged or potential fraud, occur occasionally in our business and are impacted by factors different from our credit related charge-offs. Non-credit related charge-offs were immaterial for all periods presented.

(3)Net charge-offs related to personal, student and home loans are generally recorded in noninterest income—loan origination, sales, and securitizations as part of the respective loans total change in fair value. Net charge-offs related to credit card and commercial and consumer banking are considered as part of the allowance for credit losses and provision for credit losses.

(4)Excludes the impact of delinquent personal loan sales during the year ended December 31, 2024 . These loans were sold prior to charge-off during the year ended December 31, 2024 and otherwise would have been charged off as of December 31, 2024 consistent with our policy. See Note 4. Loans to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.

(5)Net charge-off ratio is calculated as net charge-offs divided by average loans.

2024 vs. 2023. For the year ended December 31, 2024, the total net charge-off ratio was 2.63%, a decrease of 3 bps compared with the year ended December 31, 2023, and total net charge-offs were $668.2 million, an increase of $169.4 million over the comparable period. The decrease in the total net charge-off ratio was primarily due to a lower credit card net charge-off ratio reflective of improvement in delinquency rates (total credit card delinquency rate was 4.8%, down approximately 210 bps from the comparative period) as a result of tighter underwriting standards and risk mitigation actions, as well as an increase of $359.1 million in secured loans, for which we did not recognize an allowance for credit losses. The increase in total net charge-offs was primarily driven by higher personal loan amounts of $148.7 million and higher student loan amounts of $22.0 million. In addition, charge-off ratios for personal loans and student loans were higher year over year, by 12 bps and 20 bps, respectively, which partially offset the improvement in the total net charge-off ratio. These increases reflect growth in our portfolios, seasoning of vintages and credit normalization, along with the impact of the end of the student loan payment moratorium on August 30, 2023.

2023 vs. 2022. For the year ended December 31, 2023, the total net charge-off ratio was 2.66%, an increase of 133 bps compared with the year ended December 31, 2022, and total net charge-offs were $498.8 million, an increase of $376.6 million over the comparable period. The increase in the net charge-off rate and net charge-offs related to credit card was primarily related to our maturing portfolio, and personal loans on growth in our portfolio, seasoning of vintages and credit normalization.

(1)In the fourth quarter of 2024, we made a presentation change to present the provision for credit losses below total net revenue and above total noninterest expense, from its previous presentation within total noninterest expense. Respective prior period amounts were recast to conform to the current period presentation.

2024 vs. 2023. Total noninterest expense increased by $40.8 million, or 2%, for the year ended December 31, 2024 compared to the year ended December 31, 2023, primarily driven by: (i) in sales and marketing, increases in direct member incentives, advertising and marketing expenditures, and lead generation costs of $112.8 million primarily related to our Lending and Financial Services segments; (ii) increases in amortization of purchased and internally-developed software, and tools and subscriptions costs of $55.2 million, primarily reported in technology and product development, reflective of continued investments in technology; (iii) increases in professional services costs of $43.8 million, primarily reported in general and administrative and cost of operations; (iv) primarily in cost of operations, an increase in product fulfillment costs of $36.1 million, which included debit card fulfillment services, primarily related to our SoFi Money product, as well as payment processing network association fees associated with increased activity on our technology platform; (v) higher employee compensation and benefits of $32.5 million, which was attributable to increases in headcount and salary related to support of our growth and impacts of the inflationary environment, partially offset by decreases in share-based compensation expense and restructuring charges during the first quarter of 2023; and (vi) in general and administrative, amortization of premiums on a credit default swap of $30.2 million related to our student loans during the 2024 period. These increases were partially offset by the absence of $247.2 million of goodwill impairment expenses in the 2023 period related to the Galileo and Technisys reporting units.

2023 vs. 2022. Total noninterest expense increased by $531.1 million, or 29%, for the year ended December 31, 2023 compared to the year ended December 31, 2022, primarily driven by: (i) goodwill impairment expense related to the Galileo and Technisys reporting units, further discussed within “Critical Accounting Estimates—Goodwill”, (ii) higher employee compensation and benefits, which was attributable to increases in headcount and salary and the inclusion of Technisys for the full 2023 period compared to a partial period in 2022, related to support of our growth and impacts of the inflationary environment, as well as restructuring charges during the first and fourth quarters of 2023 and partially offset by decreases in share-based compensation expense, (iii) increases in advertising and marketing expenditures, utilization of lead generation channels and direct member incentives, (iv) increased amortization of purchased and internally-developed software, and in tools and subscriptions costs, reflective of continued investments in technology, (v) an increase in product fulfillment costs, which included debit card fulfillment services, primarily related to our SoFi Money product, as well as payment processing network association fees associated with increased activity on our technology platform, and (vi) increases in amortization of intangible assets primarily due to acquired intangible assets in the Technisys Merger and Wyndham acquisition. These increases were partially offset by the absence of transaction expenses that were incurred in the 2022 period related to our acquisition of Technisys.

Income Taxes

The income tax benefit for the year ended December 31, 2024 was $265.3 million, primarily due to the release in the fourth quarter of a $258.4 million valuation allowance against certain deferred tax assets based on our reassessment of their realizability. The timing of this valuation allowance release was primarily due to our cumulative income combined with projections of continued profitability. Management defines cumulative income as the most recent three years of pre-tax income when adjusted for certain non-recurring, non-taxable, or non-deductible transactions. See Note 17. Income Taxes to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.

111

SoFi Technologies, Inc.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Our income tax benefit in 2023 was primarily attributable to income tax benefits from foreign losses in jurisdictions with net deferred tax liabilities related to Technisys. Our 2023 benefits were partially offset by income tax expense associated with the profitability of SoFi Bank in state jurisdictions where separate filings are required, as well as federal taxes where our tax credits and loss carryforwards may be limited.

Our income tax expense position in 2022 was primarily attributable to tax expense at SoFi Lending Corp. and SoFi Bank due to profitability in state jurisdictions where separate filings are required and recognition of expense from Technisys in certain Latin American countries where separate returns are filed. The expense was partially offset by deferred tax benefits from the amortization of intangible assets acquired in the Technisys Merger.

Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amounts that are more likely than not expected to be realized. In making such a determination of whether a valuation allowance is necessary, the Company considers all available positive and negative evidence supporting the allowance. As noted above, in 2024 we released a significant portion of our valuation allowance. See Note 17. Income Taxes to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

Summary Results by Segment

Contribution profit (loss) is the primary measure of segment-level profit and loss that, along with our key business metrics, is used by management to evaluate our business, measure our performance, identify trends and make strategic decisions. Contribution profit (loss) is defined as total net revenue for each reportable segment less expenses directly attributable to the reportable segment, provision for credit losses and, in the case of our Lending segment, adjusted for fair value adjustments attributable to assumption changes associated with our servicing rights and residual interests classified as debt. See the sections entitled “Consolidated Results of Operations”, “Summary Results by Segment” and “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” for discussion and analysis of these key financial measures.

(1)Inclusive of origination volume related to our Loan Platform Business. For the year ended December 31, 2024, we originated $2.1 billion of personal loans on behalf of third parties. We did not originate any loans on behalf of third parties during 2023 or 2022.

(2)Loans with a balance and average loan balance include Lending products on our balance sheet, as well as transferred loans and referred loans with which we have a continuing involvement through our servicing agreements.

(3)Includes in-school loans and student loan refinancing products. In-school loans carry a lower average balance than student loan refinancing products.

Total Products

Total products in our Lending segment is a subset of our total products metric. See “Key Business Metrics” and Part I, Item 1. “Our Reportable Segments” for further discussion of this measure as it relates to our Lending segment.

Origination Volume

We refer to the aggregate dollar amount of loans originated through our platform in a given period as origination volume. Origination volume is an indicator of the size and health of our Lending segment and an indicator (together with the relevant loan characteristics, such as interest rate and prepayment and default expectations) of revenues and profitability. We also originate and sell loans in support of our Loan Platform Business, through which we provide lending related services to third-party partners. We maintain the same lending relationship with borrowers across all loans that we originate, inclusive of those originated on behalf of a third-party partner and as such, reflect these products within our Lending segment total products. Changes in origination volume are driven by the addition of new members and existing members, the latter of which at times will either refinance into a new SoFi loan or secure an additional, concurrent loan, as well as macroeconomic factors impacting consumer spending and borrowing behavior.

Personal Loans. During the year ended December 31, 2024, total personal loan origination volume increased by 28% relative to 2023, inclusive of a $2.1 billion increase related to personal loans originated on behalf of third parties during the second half of 2024 in support of our Loan Platform Business. Overall increases in origination volume were primarily due to increased demand driven by expanded marketing efforts and increased demand for debt consolidation products in a rising interest rate environment during 2023 that remained elevated into the third quarter of 2024.

During the year ended December 31, 2023, personal loan origination volume increased by 41% relative to 2022, primarily due to increased demand driven by expanded marketing efforts and increased demand for debt consolidation products in a rising interest rate environment.

Student Loans. During the year ended December 31, 2024, student loan origination volume increased by 44% relative to 2023, as demand for student loan refinancing products increased after the resumption of principal and interest payments on federally-held student loans as borrowers looked to refinance at a lower rate or, given the high interest rate environment, to extend the loan term.

SoFi Technologies, Inc.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

During the year ended December 31, 2023, student loan origination volume increased by 17% relative to 2022, as demand for student loan refinancing products increased ahead of the resumption of principal and interest payments on federally-held student loans as borrowers looked to refinance at a lower rate or, given the high interest rate environment, to extend the loan term. This was partially offset by the unfavorable impact of the suspension of principal and interest payments on federally-held student loans through August 30, 2023 and the expectation of debt cancellation for certain federal student loan borrowers which was struck down by the U.S. Supreme Court in June 2023, combined with a continued rising interest rate environment in 2023.

Home Loans. During the year ended December 31, 2024, home loan origination volume increased by 82% relative to 2023. Our home loan origination volume increased notably beginning in the second quarter of 2023 and throughout 2024, aided by the increased capacity and capabilities subsequent to our acquisition of Wyndham. In addition, interest rates began to decline in the third quarter of 2024, which tends to raise demand for home loans overall as well as shift demand towards refinance originations from purchase originations.

During the year ended December 31, 2023, home loan origination volume decreased by 3% relative to 2022 due to continued rising interest rates, which tends to lower demand for home loans overall and shift demand from refinance originations to purchase originations, the latter of which is a more competitive landscape. Although purchase originations historically represented a smaller percentage of our home loan originations, our mix during the 2023 period has shifted toward more purchase originations, which we would expect to continue under similar macroeconomic conditions. Our home loan origination volume increased notably beginning in the second quarter of 2023, aided by the increased capacity and capabilities subsequent to our acquisition of Wyndham.

Loans with a Balance and Average Loan Balance

Loans with a balance refers to the number of loans that have a balance greater than zero dollars as of the reporting date. Loans with a balance allows management to better understand the unit economics of acquiring a loan in relation to the lifetime value of that loan. Average loan balance is defined as the total unpaid principal balance of the loans divided by loans with a balance within the respective loan product category as of the reporting date. Average loan balance tends to fluctuate based on the pace of loan originations relative to loan repayments and the initial loan origination size.

(1)Inclusive of activity related to loans originated and subsequently sold as part of our Loan Platform Business. For the year ended December 31, 2024, included $2.1 billion related to loans originated on behalf of third parties. We did not originate any loans on behalf of third parties during the 2023 and 2022 periods presented.

(2)Weighted average interest rate earned represents annualized interest income recognized divided by the average of the unpaid principal balances of loans outstanding during the period, which are impacted by loan holding periods as well as interest rates charged to borrowers. Weighted average interest rate earned was determined on a daily basis for the 2024 and 2023 periods and on a thirteen-month basis for the 2022 period, as the daily analysis in the prior period would have involved undue burden. Both average calculations are representative of our operations.

(1)Reflects changes in fair value inputs and assumptions on servicing rights, including conditional prepayment, default rates and discount rates. These assumptions are highly sensitive to market interest rate changes and are not indicative of our performance or results of operations. These non-cash charges, which are recorded within noninterest income in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss), are unrealized during the period and, therefore, have no impact on our cash flows from operations.

(2)Reflects changes in fair value inputs and assumptions on residual interests classified as debt, including conditional prepayment, default rates and discount rates. When third parties finance our consolidated securitization VIEs by purchasing residual interests, we receive proceeds at the time of the closing of the securitization and, thereafter, pass along contractual cash flows to the residual interest owner. These obligations are measured at fair value on a recurring basis, with fair value changes recorded within noninterest income in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss). These residual debt obligations are measured at fair value on a recurring basis, but they have no impact on our initial financing proceeds, our future obligations to the residual interest owner (because future residual interest claims are limited to contractual securitization collateral cash flows), or the general operations of our business.

(3)Adjusted net revenue is a non-GAAP financial measure. For information regarding our use and definition of this measure and for a reconciliation to the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measure, total net revenue, see “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” herein.

Net interest income

2024 vs. 2023. Net interest income in our Lending segment increased by $246.5 million, or 26%, for the year ended December 31, 2024 compared to 2023. This was primarily attributable to increases in aggregate average personal and student loan unpaid principal balances of $3.5 billion (29%) and $1.6 billion (29%), respectively, combined with higher weighted average interest rates. The personal and student loan average balance increases were primarily attributable to higher origination volume and longer loan holding periods. Interest expense associated with funding our lending activities increased by $410.0 million, or 44%, primarily due to higher average loan balances.

2023 vs. 2022. Net interest income in our Lending segment increased by $429.3 million, or 81%, for the year ended December 31, 2023 compared to 2022. This was primarily attributable to increases in average personal and student loan unpaid principal balances of $7.0 billion (161%) and $1.7 billion (49%), respectively, combined with a higher weighted average interest rate. The personal loan average balance increase was primarily attributable to higher origination volume and longer loan holding periods. The student loan average balance increase was primarily attributable to longer loan holding periods. Interest expense associated with funding our lending activities increased by $732.1 million, or 356%, primarily due to the sharp increases in benchmark rates which are reflective of the higher interest rate environment year over year, as well as higher average loan balances.

Noninterest income

2024 vs. 2023. Noninterest income in our Lending segment decreased by $131.9 million, or 32%, for the year ended December 31, 2024 compared to 2023, which was primarily attributable to lower loan origination, sales, and securitizations income of $115.9 million.

2023 vs. 2022. Noninterest income in our Lending segment decreased by $198.7 million, or 33%, for the year ended December 31, 2023 compared to 2022, which was primarily attributable to lower loan origination, sales, and securitizations income of $193.3 million.

(1)Includes fair value adjustments on loans originated during the period, fair value adjustments of loans and securitization bond and residual interest positions held at the balance sheet date, as well as gains (losses) on loans sold and consolidated securitization transactions during the period. Fair value adjustments are impacted by interest rates, weighted average coupon, credit spreads and loss estimates, prepayment speeds, duration and previous loan sale execution on similar loans.

(2)Includes gains (losses) on IRLCs and interest rate caps. Also includes losses related to credit derivatives in 2024, as well as gains on purchase price earn-out during 2023 and 2022.

(3)For the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022, includes gross write-offs of $730.1 million, $533.3 million and $131.6 million, respectively. Total recoveries were $102.4 million, $78.1 million and $30.4 million, respectively, of which $78.8 million, $53.7 million and $10.5 million, respectively, were captured via loan sales to a third-party collection agency.

(4)Represents the (expense) benefit associated with our estimated loan repurchase obligation. See Note 18. Commitments, Guarantees, Concentrations and Contingencies to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.

2024 vs. 2023. The decrease in loan origination, sales, and securitizations income of $115.9 million, or 31%, was primarily driven by: (i) higher personal loan as well as student loan write-offs in the 2024 period, primarily driven by higher loan origination volume, longer loan holding periods and elevated charge off rates during 2024 ($170.7 million); (ii) a net decrease of $111.0 million related to the following: lower fair value gains on personal loans, which were primarily impacted by smaller decreases in discount rate assumptions during 2024 ($371.2 million); lower fair value gains on student loans, which were primarily impacted by higher discount rate assumptions ($77.7 million); and gains on student loan, personal loan and risk retention interest rate swap positions during 2024 compared to losses in 2023, primarily driven by larger increases in interest rates in the 2024 period ($337.9 million); and (iii) higher losses of $66.1 million on personal loan sales in the 2024 period, and were due to both price and volume factors, as well as delinquent loan sales in the 2024 period only.

These decreases were partially offset by higher origination fees primarily related to a new product feature offered on personal loans, whereby a borrower may optionally elect to pay origination fees to qualify for a lower annual percentage rate ($242.9 million).

2023 vs. 2022. The decrease in loan origination, sales, and securitizations income was primarily driven by: (i) higher personal loan write-offs in the 2023 period, primarily driven by longer loan holding periods and elevated charge off rates, (ii) losses in 2023 compared to gains in 2022 on student loan, personal loan and risk retention interest rate swap positions primarily driven by smaller increases in interest rates during the 2023 period, and (iii) lower gains on home loan pipeline hedges primarily driven by larger increases in the underlying hedge price index during the 2023 period.

These decreases were partially offset by: (i) higher fair value gains on personal loans and lower fair value losses on student loans in the 2023 period, which were primarily impacted by higher origination volume and lower prepayment assumptions, respectively, (ii) higher origination fees primarily related to a new product feature offered on personal loans, whereby a borrower may optionally elect to pay origination fees to qualify for a lower annual percentage rate, (iii) improvement in securitizations income primarily driven by an increase in securitization loan and residual interests in securitization trusts fair market values primarily associated with consolidated securitization transactions in the first and third quarters of 2023, and a positive variance in our securitization bond and residual interest position fair values, (iv) fair value gains on home loans (compared to losses in the 2022 period), which were primarily impacted by smaller decreases in benchmark rates, and (v) losses on home loan and student loan sale execution in the 2022 period, which were due to both volume and price factors.

Servicing

We own the master servicing on all of the servicing rights that we retain and, in each case, recognize the gross servicing rate applicable to each serviced loan. Sub-servicers are utilized for all serviced student loans and home loans, which represents a cost to SoFi, but these arrangements do not impact our calculation of the weighted average basis points earned for each loan type serviced. Further, there is no impact on servicing income due to forbearance and moratoriums on certain debt collection activities, and there are no waivers of late fees. The table below presents information related to our loan servicing assets:

2024 vs. 2023. Lending segment directly attributable expenses increased by $75.4 million, or 15%, for the year ended December 31, 2024 compared to 2023, primarily due to: (i) an increase in direct advertising primarily related to online and digital advertising, (ii) an increase in personal and student loan lead generation channels, (iii) an increase in allocated compensation and related benefits, which reflected increases in average compensation in 2024, and (iv) a decrease in other expenses, primarily related to third-party loan fraud.

2023 vs. 2022. Lending segment directly attributable expenses increased by $70.1 million, or 16%, for the year ended December 31, 2023 compared to 2022, primarily due to: (i) an increase in personal loan lead generation channels during 2023, (ii) an increase in allocated compensation and related benefits, which reflected increases in average compensation and average headcount in 2023, (ii) an increase in direct advertising primarily related to direct mail advertising, and (iv) an increase in other expenses, primarily related to loan marketing expenses and third-party loan fraud.

Noninterest income

2024 vs. 2023. Noninterest income in our Technology Platform segment increased by $42.2 million, or 12%, for the year ended December 31, 2024 compared to 2023. The increase was primarily attributable to growth in technology services fees of $26.3 million driven by increased processing and service arrangement activity among our integrated technology solutions clients as well as account growth. Noninterest income also included $36.8 million and $22.2 million of intercompany revenue for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The increase in intercompany revenue was primarily attributable to increased usage of technology platform services during the 2024 period by our Financial Services segment as we continue to leverage synergies to enhance our product offerings.

2023 vs. 2022. Noninterest income in our Technology Platform segment increased by $35.7 million, or 11%, for the year ended December 31, 2023 compared to 2022. The increase was primarily attributable to growth in technology services fees of $20.5 million driven by revenue contribution from Technisys for the full 2023 period compared to ten months of 2022. Noninterest income also included $22.2 million and $7.6 million of intercompany revenue for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The increase in intercompany revenue was primarily attributable to increased usage of technology platform services during the 2023 periods by our Financial Services segment, as well as within our Technology Platform segment, as we continue to leverage synergies to enhance our product offerings.

2024 vs. 2023. Technology Platform segment directly attributable expenses increased by $10.7 million, or 4%, for the year ended December 31, 2024 compared to 2023, primarily attributable to an increase in product fulfillment costs, primarily related to payment processing network association fees associated with increased activity on the platform.

2023 vs. 2022. Technology Platform segment directly attributable expenses increased by $18.9 million, or 8%, for the year ended December 31, 2023 compared to 2022, primarily due to: (i) an increase in product fulfillment costs, primarily related to payment processing network association fees associated with increased activity on the platform, (ii) an increase in compensation and benefits expense, primarily related to bonus adjustments in the second quarter of 2023 and the inclusion of Technisys in our results for the full 2023 period, partially offset by a decrease in average headcount in 2023 corresponding with restructuring during the first quarter of 2023, and (iii) an increase in tools and subscriptions costs related to internal technology initiatives to support the growth of the platform, along with the inclusion of Technisys in our results for the full 2023 period.

Net interest income

2024 vs. 2023. Net interest income in our Financial Services segment increased by $238.6 million, or 71%, for the year ended December 31, 2024 compared to 2023, which was primarily attributable to net interest income earned on our deposits which includes interest income based on our FTP framework (which is eliminated in consolidation) and interest expense to members. This net increase corresponds with the growth of our SoFi Money product and related deposits at SoFi Bank.

2023 vs. 2022. Net interest income in our Financial Services segment increased by $242.3 million, or 262%, for the year ended December 31, 2023 compared to 2022, which was primarily attributable to net interest income earned on our deposits, which includes interest income based on our FTP framework (which eliminates in consolidation) and interest expense to members. This net increase corresponds with the growth of deposits at SoFi Bank, as well as the impact of higher interest rates offered to members. In addition, net interest income earned on our credit cards increased, which includes interest income earned on outstanding balances as well as interest expense incurred under the FTP framework, and was primarily attributable to growth in total credit cards.

Noninterest income

2024 vs. 2023. Noninterest income in our Financial Services segment increased by $146.4 million, or 144%, for the year ended December 31, 2024 compared to 2023, primarily due to: (i) growth in our Loan Platform Business of $108.0 million, which includes increases in loan platform fees related to revenue from loans which we originate on behalf of third parties in order to subsequently sell as well as pre-qualified borrower referrals to third-party loan origination partners as we continue to drive volume to our partners; and (ii) an increase in interchange fees of $31.6 million, which coincided with increased credit card and debit card transactions.

2023 vs. 2022. Noninterest income in our Financial Services segment increased by $26.6 million, or 35%, for the year ended December 31, 2023 compared to 2022, primarily due to an increase in interchange fees of $17.9 million, which coincided with increased credit card and debit card transactions, as well as brokerage-related fees, which were primarily attributable to increased trading volume on our platform during 2023.

Provision for credit losses

2024 vs. 2023. Provision for credit losses in our Financial Services segment decreased by $23.3 million, or 42%, primarily related to improvement in credit card delinquency rates (total credit card delinquency rate was 4.8%, down approximately 210 bps from the comparative period) as a result of tighter underwriting standards and risk mitigation actions, and improved credit quality of the portfolio, including higher borrower FICO scores.

2023 vs. 2022. Provision for credit losses in our Financial Services segment increased by $0.6 million, or 1%, reflecting higher average credit card balances combined with elevated credit card loss rates during 2022.

Directly attributable expenses

The directly attributable expenses allocated to the Financial Services segment that were used in the determination of the segment’s contribution profit (loss) were as follows:

Respective prior period amounts were recast to conform to the current period presentation.

2024 vs. 2023. Financial Services directly attributable expenses increased by $101.0 million, or 26%, for the year ended December 31, 2024 compared to 2023, primarily due to: (i) an increase in direct member incentives utilized to drive adoption and usage of our Financial Services products, the most significant of which was our SoFi Money product; (ii) an increase in product fulfillment costs, which included debit card fulfillment services, primarily related to our SoFi Money product; (iii) an increase in compensation and benefits expense, which reflected an increase in allocated compensation and related benefits to support growth in the Financial Services segment, in addition to increases in average compensation in 2024; and (iv) an increase in intercompany expenses attributable to increased usage of technology platform services during the 2024 period.

2023 vs. 2022. Financial Services directly attributable expenses increased by $69.1 million, or 22%, for the year ended December 31, 2023 compared to 2022, primarily due to: (i) an increase in product fulfillment costs, which included debit card

fulfillment services, primarily related to our SoFi Money product, (ii) an increase in compensation and benefits expense, which reflected growth in the Financial Services segment that required additional staffing, as well as increased average compensation in 2023, (iii) an increase in direct member incentives utilized to drive adoption and usage of our Financial Services products, the most significant of which was our SoFi Money product, (iv) an increase in direct advertising costs primarily driven by an increase in online and digital advertising largely related to the promotion of our SoFi Money product, and (v) an increase related to utilization of lead generation channels, primarily related to our credit card and Relay products

Corporate/Other Segment

Non-segment operations are classified as Corporate/Other, which includes net revenues associated with corporate functions, non-recurring gains and losses from non-securitization investment activities, interest income and realized gains and losses associated with investments in AFS debt securities, and gains or losses on extinguishment of convertible debt, all of which are not directly related to a reportable segment. Net interest expense within Corporate/Other also reflects the financial impact of our capital management activities within the treasury function, which reflects the residual impact from FTP charges and FTP credits allocated to our reportable segments under our FTP framework. The following table presents the measure of total net revenue (loss) for Corporate/Other:

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Liquidity

We strive to maintain access to diverse funding sources and ample liquidity to fund our operating requirements, to pursue strategic growth initiatives and to meet our legal and regulatory requirements. Our principal sources of liquidity are our cash and cash equivalents, including cash from operations, and investments in other highly liquid assets.

We maintain Treasury risk policies which outline specific requirements relating to the oversight of SoFi Technologies, Inc. (and its subsidiaries) capital planning, financial planning and forecasting, liquidity risk management, contingency funding planning, interest rate risk management, cash management and financial operations, among other activities. Oversight of these

activities is the responsibility of our ALCO. The ALCO is a management committee comprised of a cross-functional leadership team that is responsible for managing our use of capital, liquidity, sources and uses of funding, and sensitivities to various market risks, by identifying key risks and exposures, monitoring them appropriately, establishing tolerances and limits, mitigating risks where appropriate, and facilitating timely responses to changes in the macroeconomic environment and liquidity events to work to ensure the Company has the ability to meet its obligations.

(2)Includes personal loan, student loan and risk retention warehouse facilities. For risk retention facilities, we only include capacity amounts wherein we can pledge additional asset-backed bonds and residual investments as of the date indicated. As of December 31, 2024, warehouse facility maturity dates ranged from January 2025 through November 2027. See Note 12. Debt to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.

(3)As of December 31, 2024, the amount utilized under the revolving credit facility includes $12.3 million utilized to secure letters of credit. See Note 12. Debt to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.

(4)As of December 31, 2024, we had $142.6 million of investments in AFS debt securities and $51.2 million of loans pledged as collateral to the FHLB to secure undrawn borrowing capacity of $170.4 million, of which $25.2 million was utilized to secure letters of credit.

(5)Borrowing capacity with a correspondent bank, which is an unsecured committed Federal funds line.

We believe our existing liquidity will be sufficient to meet our existing working capital and capital expenditure needs, as well as our planned growth for at least the next 12 months.

Sources of Funding

Our primary funding sources include SoFi Bank deposits, warehouse funding, common equity capital, convertible debt, corporate revolving credit facility, securitizations, and other financings.

We offer deposit accounts (checking and savings accounts) to our members through SoFi Bank. We also source brokered and non-brokered wholesale deposits, which include certificates of deposit. As of December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, time deposit balances due in less than one year totaled $814.7 million and $2.6 billion, respectively. As of December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the amount of uninsured deposits totaled $544.3 million and $348.1 million, respectively. As of December 31, 2024, approximately 98% of our total deposits were insured.

The following table presents uninsured time deposits as of December 31, 2024 by remaining time to maturity:

($ in thousands)December 31, 2024
3 months or less$3,164
Over 3 months through 6 months9,205
Over 6 months through 12 months6,350
Over 12 months1,586
Total uninsured time deposits$20,305

Uses of Funding

Our primary uses of funds include loan originations, investments in our business, such as technology and product investments, as well as sales and marketing initiatives. In addition, our Financial Services segment has historically generated losses, and achieved contribution profit for the first time during the third quarter of 2023. Our capital expenditures have historically been less significant relative to our operating and financing cash flows, and we expect this trend to continue for the foreseeable future.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

As of December 31, 2024, we had debt obligations and common stock outstanding.

Borrowings

Our borrowings primarily included our loan and risk retention warehouse facilities, asset-backed securitization debt, revolving credit facility and convertible notes. The amount of financing actually advanced on each individual loan under our loan warehouse facilities, as determined by agreed-upon advance rates, may be less than the stated advance rate depending, in part, on changes in underlying loan characteristics of the loans securing the financings. Each of our loan warehouse facilities allows the lender providing the funds to evaluate the market value of the loans that are serving as collateral for the borrowings or advances being made. The amount owed and outstanding on our loan warehouse facilities fluctuates significantly based on our origination volume, sales volume, the amount of time we strategically hold loans on our balance sheet, and the amount of loans being funded with our cash or member deposits.

Refer to Note 12. Debt to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information on our borrowing arrangements and the capped call transactions entered into in connection with the issuance of our convertible notes.

Covenants

We have various affirmative and negative financial covenants, as well as non-financial covenants, related to our warehouse debt and revolving credit facility. Additionally, we have compliance requirements associated with our convertible notes, and certain provisions of the arrangement could change in the event of a “Make-Whole Fundamental Change”, as defined in the indenture governing such convertible notes.

The availability of funds under our warehouse facilities and revolving credit facility is subject to, among other conditions, our continued compliance with the covenants. These financial covenants include, but are not limited to, maintaining: (i) a certain minimum tangible net worth, (ii) minimum unrestricted cash and cash equivalents, (iii) a maximum leverage ratio of total debt to tangible net worth, and (iv) minimum risk-based capital and leverage ratios. A breach of these covenants can result in an event of default under these facilities and allows the lenders to pursue certain remedies. See Note 12. Debt to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information. Our subsidiaries are restricted in the amount that can be distributed to SoFi only to the extent that such distributions would cause the financial covenants to not be met.

We were in compliance with all covenants as of December 31, 2024.

Capital Management

SoFi Technologies, a bank holding company, and SoFi Bank, a nationally chartered association, are required to comply with regulatory capital rules issued by the Federal Reserve and other U.S. banking regulators, including the OCC and FDIC. From time to time, we may contribute capital to SoFi Bank. We are required to manage our capital position to maintain sufficient capital to satisfy these regulatory rules and support our business activities, including the requirement to maintain minimum regulatory capital ratios in accordance with the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision standardized approach for U.S. banking organizations (U.S. Basel III). If the Federal Reserve finds that we are not “well-capitalized” or “well-managed”, we would be required to take remedial action, which may contain additional limitations or conditions relating to our activities.

These requirements establish required minimum ratios for CET1 risk-based capital, Tier 1 risk-based capital, total risk-based capital and a Tier 1 leverage ratio; set risk-weighting for assets and certain other items for purposes of the risk-based capital ratios; and define what qualifies as capital for purposes of meeting the capital requirements.

As of December 31, 2024, our regulatory capital ratios exceeded the thresholds required to be regarded as a well-capitalized institution, and meet all capital adequacy requirements to which we are subject. There have been no events or conditions since December 31, 2024 that management believes would change the categorization. See Note 21. Regulatory Capital to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for the risk- and leverage-based capital ratios and amounts for SoFi Bank and SoFi Technologies.

__________________

(1)The amounts reported exclude future interest expense, other than interest accrued as of December 31, 2024, as it is difficult to predict the amount of interest we will incur due to the variability of the utilization of our warehouse debt and timing of collateral cash flows. As such, only principal commitments and the aforementioned accrued interest are included herein. See Note 12. Debt to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information on our warehouse debt.

(2)Includes principal balance and variable interest on our revolving credit facility. The estimated interest payments assume that our borrowings under the revolving credit facility (i) remain unchanged, (ii) are held to maturity, and (iii) incur interest at the rate for standard withdrawals in effect as of December 31, 2024 through its maturity. See Note 12. Debt to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information on our revolving credit facility.

(3)The convertible notes will mature October 2026 and March 2029, unless earlier repurchased, redeemed or converted. Includes principal balance for the 2026 convertible notes and 2029 convertible notes, and future interest expense on our 2029 convertible notes. The estimated interest payments assume that our borrowings under the 2029 convertible notes (i) remain unchanged, (ii) are held to maturity, and (iii) incur interest at the rate in effect as of December 31, 2024 through maturity. See “Borrowings” for additional information on the provisions of our convertible notes.

(4)See Note 18. Commitments, Guarantees, Concentrations and Contingencies to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information on these financial commitments.

(5)Contractual obligations exclude residual interests classified as debt that result from transfers of assets that are accounted for as secured financings. Similarly, contractual obligations exclude securitization debt, as the maturity of the notes issued by the various trusts occurs upon either the maturity of the loan collateral or full payment of the loan collateral held in the trusts, the timing of which cannot be reasonably estimated. Additionally, our own liquidity resources are not required to make any contractual payments on these borrowings, except in limited instances associated with our guarantee arrangements. Our maturity date represents the legal maturity of the last class of maturing notes. See Note 18. Commitments, Guarantees, Concentrations and Contingencies to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion of our guarantees. Finally, contractual obligations exclude the impact of uncertain tax positions, as we are not able to reasonably estimate the timing of such future cash flows. See Note 17. Income Taxes to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information on income taxes and unrecognized tax benefits.

Guarantees

We may require liquidity resources associated with our guarantee arrangements. As a component of our loan sale agreements, we make certain representations to third parties that purchased our previously held loans. We have a three-year obligation to GSEs on loans that we sell to GSEs, to repurchase any originated loans that do not meet certain GSE guidelines, and we are required to pay the full initial purchase price back to the GSEs. In addition, we make standard representations and warranties related to personal, student and home loan transfers, as well as limited credit-related repurchase guarantees on certain such transfers. If realized, any of the repurchases would require the use of cash. See Note 18. Commitments, Guarantees, Concentrations and Contingencies to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for further information on these and other guarantee obligations. We believe we have adequate liquidity to meet these expected obligations.

Factors Affecting Liquidity

The activities of our lending business are a key factor affecting our liquidity, in particular our origination volume, the holding period of our loans, loan sale execution and the timing of loan repayments. Our ability to have adequate liquidity to fund our balance sheet is impacted by our ability to access new deposits, and retain and grow existing deposits, along with our ability to access whole loan buyers, sell our loans on favorable terms, maintain adequate warehouse capacity at favorable terms, and to strategically manage our continuing financial interest in securitization-related transfers. Our ability to attract and maintain deposits can be impacted by, among other things, general economic conditions, competition from other financial services firms, idiosyncratic events and the interest rates we offer, which can impact our liquidity from deposits. In 2023, we began to provide our members with access to expanded FDIC insurance coverage through a network of participating banks in our Insured Deposit Program. We continued to have strong deposit contribution through 2024.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

There is no guarantee that we will be able to execute on our strategy as it relates to the timing and pricing of securitization-related transfers. Therefore, we may hold securitization interests for longer than planned or be forced to liquidate at suboptimal prices. Securitization transfers are also negatively impacted during recessionary periods, wherein purchasers may be more risk averse.

Further, future uncertainties around the demand for our personal loans, home loans and around the student loan refinance market in general, including as a result of worsening macroeconomic conditions or market disruptions, should be considered when assessing our future liquidity and solvency prospects. In the future, our loan origination volume and our resulting loan balances, and any positive cash flows thereof, could also be lower based on strategic decisions to tighten our credit standards.

In addition to our ability to pledge unencumbered loans against available warehouse capacity, we have relationships with whole loan buyers who have historically demonstrated strong demand for our loans. Securitization markets can also generate additional liquidity; however, financing through the securitization market could result in worse execution as compared to whole loans sales depending on market conditions and, in certain cases, we are required to maintain a minimum investment due to securitization risk retention rules.

Additionally, our securitization transactions require us to maintain a continuing financial interest in the form of securitization investments when we deconsolidate the SPE or in consolidation of the SPE when we have a significant financial interest. In either instance, the continuing financial interest requires us to maintain capital in the SPE that would otherwise be available to us if we had sold loans through a different channel. As it relates to our securitization debt, the maturity of the notes issued by the various trusts occurs upon either the maturity of the loan collateral or full payment of the loan collateral held in the trusts, the timing of which cannot be reasonably estimated. Our own liquidity resources are not required to make any contractual payments on our securitization borrowings.

Our cash flows from operations have also historically been impacted by material net losses. While we achieved net income profitability for the first time during the fourth quarter of 2023, changing business, macroeconomic or other conditions could potentially lead us, in the future, to raise additional capital in the form of equity or debt, which may not be at favorable terms when compared to previous financing transactions.

Our long-term liquidity strategy includes continuing to grow our deposit base, maintaining adequate warehouse capacity, maintaining corporate debt and other sources of financing, as well as effectively managing the capital raised through debt and equity transactions. Although our goal is to increase our cash flow from operations, there can be no assurance that our future operating plans will lead to improved operating cash flows.

The FDIA and FDIC regulations generally limit the ability of an insured depository institution to accept, renew or roll over any brokered deposit unless the institution’s capital category is “well capitalized” or, with the FDIC’s approval, “adequately capitalized.” See Part I, Item 1. “Government Supervision and Regulation—Brokered Deposits” for additional information. As of December 31, 2024, our regulatory capital ratios exceeded the thresholds required to be regarded as a well-capitalized institution, and meet all capital adequacy requirements to which we are subject.

Cash Flows from Operating Activities

For the year ended December 31, 2024, net cash used in operating activities of $1.1 billion stemmed from net income of $498.7 million, an unfavorable change in our operating assets net of operating liabilities of $1.6 billion, and a negative adjustment for non-cash items of $5.6 million. The change in operating assets net of operating liabilities was primarily a result of our loan origination and sales activities. We originated loans of $19.4 billion during the year and also purchased loans of $170 million. These cash uses were partially offset by principal payments on loans of $9.5 billion and principal proceeds from loan sales of $8.5 billion.

For the year ended December 31, 2023, net cash used in operating activities of $7.2 billion stemmed from a net loss of $300.7 million and an unfavorable change in our operating assets net of operating liabilities of $7.6 billion, partially offset by a positive adjustment for non-cash items of $706.8 million. The change in operating assets net of operating liabilities was primarily a result of our loan origination and sales activities. We originated loans of $17.4 billion during the year and also purchased loans of $198.7 million. These cash uses were partially offset by principal payments on loans of $7.2 billion and proceeds from loan sales of $2.1 billion.

For the year ended December 31, 2022, net cash used in operating activities of $7.3 billion stemmed from a net loss of $320.4 million and an unfavorable change in our operating assets net of operating liabilities of $7.5 billion, partially offset by a positive adjustment for non-cash items of $560.1 million. The change in operating assets net of operating liabilities was primarily a result of our loan origination and sales activities. We originated loans of $13.0 billion during the year and also purchased loans of $2.5 billion. These cash uses were largely offset by principal payments on loans of $3.1 billion and proceeds from loan sales of $4.9 billion.

Cash Flows from Investing Activities

For the year ended December 31, 2024, net cash used in investing activities of $4.8 billion was primarily attributable to $3.5 billion related to loan activities. Changes in loans held for investment was primarily a result of loan originations during the period of $7.5 billion, partially offset by principal payments on loans of $3.3 billion and proceeds from loan sales of $677.6 million. Other cash uses included net purchases of $1.2 billion related to our investments in AFS debt securities, $154.3 million for purchases of property, equipment and software, which primarily included internally-developed software and purchased software, and $37.8 million related to purchases of non-securitization investments, primarily FRB stock and FHLB stock. These uses were partially offset by proceeds of $79.8 million from our securitization investments.

For the year ended December 31, 2023, net cash used in investing activities of $1.9 billion was primarily attributable to $1.4 billion related to loan activities, primarily driven by student loans, secured loans and credit cards, net purchases of $381.0 million related to our investments in AFS debt securities, $111.4 million for purchases of property, equipment and software, which primarily included internally-developed software and purchased software, $72.3 million related to business combinations, net of cash acquired, which includes our acquisition of Wyndham and settlements of vested employee performance awards associated with the Technisys Merger, and $66.6 million related to purchases of non-securitization investments, primarily FRB stock and FHLB stock. These uses were partially offset by proceeds of $108.3 million from our securitization investments.

For the year ended December 31, 2022, net cash used in investing activities of $106.3 million was primarily attributable to proceeds of $118.8 million from our securitization investments and the aggregate net cash acquired from the Technisys Merger and Bank Merger of $58.5 million. These sources were more than offset by net cash uses of $173.7 million related to loan activities, primarily driven by credit cards, $93.2 million for purchases of property, equipment and software, which primarily included internally-developed software and purchased software, as well as $10.5 million related to costs incurred in the development and enhancement of software to be sold, leased or marketed.

Cash Flows from Financing Activities

For the year ended December 31, 2024, net cash provided by financing activities of $5.0 billion was primarily attributable to net cash sources from our SoFi Bank deposits of $7.0 billion and proceeds from the issuance of our 2029 convertible notes of $845.3 million. This was partially offset by our net change in debt facilities of $2.0 billion related to our warehouses, and debt repayments of $352.8 million. Our payments of debt issuance costs were in the normal course of business and reflective of our recurring debt warehouse facility activity, which involves securing new warehouse facilities and extending existing warehouse facilities. In addition, we had an outflow of $323.4 million related to the redemption of our Series 1 preferred stock in May 2024.

For the year ended December 31, 2023, net cash provided by financing activities of $10.9 billion was primarily attributable to net cash sources from our SoFi Bank deposits of $11.2 billion. This was partially offset by debt repayments of $799.9 million which exceeded our proceeds from debt financing activity of $520.5 million, which were primarily related to our warehouse facilities. Our payments of debt issuance costs were in the normal course of business and reflective of our recurring debt warehouse facility activity, which involves securing new warehouse facilities and extending existing warehouse facilities.

For the year ended December 31, 2022, net cash provided by financing activities of $8.4 billion was primarily attributable to net cash sources from our SoFi Bank deposits of $7.2 billion. Additionally, our proceeds from debt financing activities of $1.9 billion exceeded our debt repayments of $516.4 million, which were primarily related to our warehouse facilities. Our payments of debt issuance costs were in the normal course of business and reflective of our recurring debt

warehouse facility activity, which involves securing new warehouse facilities and extending existing warehouse facilities. Finally, we paid redeemable preferred stock dividends of $40.4 million and taxes related to RSU vesting of $9.0 million.

Other Arrangements

We enter into arrangements in which we originate loans, establish an SPE and transfer loans to the SPE, which has historically served as an important source of liquidity. We also retain the servicing rights of the underlying loans and hold additional interests in the SPE. When an SPE is determined not to be a VIE or when an SPE is determined to be a VIE but we are not the primary beneficiary, the SPE is not consolidated. In addition, a significant change to the pertinent rights of other parties or our pertinent rights, or a significant change to the ranges of possible financial performance outcomes used in our assessment of the variability of cash flows due to us, could impact the determination of whether or not a VIE is consolidated. VIE consolidation and deconsolidation may lead to increased volatility in our financial results and impact period-over-period comparability. See Note 1. Organization, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and New Accounting Standards to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for our VIE consolidation policy.

Historically, we have established personal loan trusts and student loan trusts that were created and designed to transfer credit and interest rate risk associated with the underlying loans through the issuance of collateralized notes and residual certificates. We hold a variable interest in the trusts through our ownership of collateralized notes in the form of asset-backed bonds and residual certificates. The residual certificates absorb variability and represent the equity ownership interest in the equity portion of the personal loan and student loan trusts.

We are also the servicer for all trusts in which we hold a financial interest. As servicer, we may have the power to perform the activities which most impact the economic performance of the VIE, but since either we hold an insignificant financial interest in the trusts or rights held by other variable interest holders convey power, we are not the primary beneficiary. Further, we do not provide financial support beyond our initial equity investment, and our maximum exposure to loss as a result of our involvement with nonconsolidated VIEs is limited to that initial investment. For a more detailed discussion of nonconsolidated VIEs, including related activity during the year, see Note 7. Securitization and Variable Interest Entities to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

Financial Condition Summary

Changes in the composition and balance of our assets and liabilities as of December 31, 2024 compared to December 31, 2023 were principally attributed to the following:

•a decrease of $906.2 million in cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents. See “Cash Flow and Liquidity Analysis” for further discussion of our cash flow activity;

•an increase in loans held for investment of $2.3 billion, which was primarily related to longer loan holding periods on student loans and secured loans;

•an increase in loans held for sale of $2.3 billion, which was primarily related to personal loan originations;

•an increase in other assets of $1.2 billion, which was primarily related to an increase in accounts receivable, derivative instruments, and deferred tax assets. See Note 10. Other Assets and Other Liabilities to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information;

•an increase in investments in AFS debt securities portfolio of $1.2 billion. Our portfolio primarily consists of U.S. Treasury and agency mortgage-backed securities of high credit quality, utilized in our ongoing asset-liability management activities;

•an increase in deposits of $7.4 billion, which was primarily related to increased savings deposits from members; and

•a decrease of $2.0 billion in gross warehouse and risk retention facility debt as we continue to use our consumer deposit growth to replace higher cost of funding sources.

Critical Accounting Estimates

Our consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. In preparing our consolidated financial statements, we make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts of assets and liabilities, as well as revenues and expenses. We base our assumptions, judgments and estimates on historical experience and various other factors that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. The results involve judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results could differ materially from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. We regularly evaluate our estimates, assumptions and judgments, particularly those that

129

SoFi Technologies, Inc.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

include the most difficult, subjective or complex judgments which are often about matters that are inherently uncertain. The most significant judgments, estimates and assumptions relate to the critical accounting estimates, which are discussed in detail below. We evaluate our critical accounting policies and estimates on an ongoing basis and update them as necessary based on changes in market conditions or factors specific to us. See Note 1. Organization, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and New Accounting Standards to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for a summary of our significant accounting policies.

Fair Value

Fair value is defined as the 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 use a three-level fair value hierarchy to classify and disclose all assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis in periods subsequent to their initial measurement. The hierarchy requires us to use observable inputs when available and to minimize the use of unobservable inputs when determining fair value. The three levels are defined as follows:

•Level 1 — Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities, accessible by us at the measurement date.

•Level 2 — Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, or quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, or observable inputs other than quoted prices.

•Level 3 — Unobservable inputs for assets or liabilities for which there is little or no market data, which requires us to develop our own assumptions. These unobservable assumptions reflect estimates of inputs that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. Valuation techniques include the use of option pricing models, discounted cash flow models, or similar techniques, which incorporate management’s own estimates of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.

A financial instrument’s categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Instruments are categorized in Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy based on the significance of unobservable factors in the overall fair value measurement. Our involvement with VIEs and origination of personal loans, student loans and home loans results in Level 2 and Level 3 assumptions having a material impact on our consolidated financial statements, as further discussed below. We utilize third-party valuation specialists to perform a valuation of these Level 2 and Level 3 financial instruments on a monthly basis with quarterly oversight by a Valuation Working Group established by the Company that comprises leaders across finance, capital markets and accounting.

Loans

We elected the fair value option to measure our personal loans, student loans and home loans, as we believe that fair value best reflects the expected economic performance of the loans. Home loans classified as Level 2 have observable pricing sources utilized by management. Personal loans, student loans and home loans which do not trade in an active market with readily observable prices are classified as Level 3 because the valuations utilize significant unobservable inputs.

We determine the fair value of our loans using a DCF calculation, which is a form of the income approach, while also considering market data as it becomes available. In applying the DCF methodology, we estimate the future cash flows of each loan portfolio using key loan metrics, such as term, vintage, coupon rate, coupon type and current balance, among others. The significant assumptions used in the valuation model include conditional prepayment rate, annual default rate and discount rate. The conditional prepayment rate represents the monthly annualized proportion of the principal of a pool of loans that is assumed to be paid off prematurely in each period. The annual default rate represents the annualized rate of borrowers who do not make loan payments on time. The conditional prepayment and annual default rate assumptions are determined using company-specific historical loan performance curves. The discount rate represents the weighted average rate at which the expected cash flows are discounted to arrive at the net present value of the loans. The discount rate is determined based on company-specific factors and market observations, including underlying benchmark rates, our weighted average coupon rate and expected duration of the assets, the last of which is also impacted by expected prepayment rates. We also consider the volume and terms of recent whole loan sales and securitization market pricing factors, as applicable, as indicators of loan fair values.

Securitizations

Loans in consolidated VIEs remain on our consolidated balance sheet and are measured at fair value using Level 3 inputs in a manner consistent with our non-securitization loans. Moreover, third-party residual claims on these loans are measured at fair value on a recurring basis and are presented as residual interests classified as debt in our consolidated balance sheet. We classify the residual interests classified as debt as Level 3 due to the reliance on significant unobservable valuation

inputs. In Company-sponsored securitization transactions that meet the applicable criteria to be accounted for as a sale, we retain certain asset-backed bonds, which are measured at fair value on a recurring basis using Level 2 inputs, and residual investments, which are measured at fair value on a recurring basis using Level 3 inputs. These risk retention interests in nonconsolidated VIEs are referred to as securitization investments.

We determine the fair value of our residual interests classified as debt and our securitization investments using a DCF calculation, while also considering market data as it becomes available. In applying the DCF methodology, we estimate the future collateral cash flows using key securitization portfolio metrics, such as contractual payments and delinquency profile, among others. The significant assumptions used in the valuation model include conditional prepayment rate, annual default rate and discount rate. The conditional prepayment and annual default rate assumptions are determined using observed prepayment and default performance. The discount rate is determined based on market observations, such as secondary trading information, newly closed deals, benchmark rates and spread index, among others.

See “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk” for discussion of the sensitivity of our financial instruments measured at fair value to changes in various market risks.

Goodwill

Goodwill represents the fair value of an acquired business in excess of the fair value of the identified net assets acquired. As of December 31, 2024, we had goodwill of $1.4 billion.

Goodwill is tested for impairment at the reporting unit level at least annually, with a recurring testing date of October 1, or whenever indicators of impairment exist. Impairment of goodwill is the condition that exists when the carrying amount of a reporting unit that includes goodwill exceeds its fair value. We may assess goodwill for impairment initially based on qualitative considerations, referred to as “step zero”, to determine whether conditions exist that indicate that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. If management concludes, based on its assessment of relevant events, facts and circumstances that it is more likely than not that a reporting unit’s carrying value is greater than its fair value, then a quantitative analysis, referred to as step one, will be performed to determine if there is any impairment. We may alternatively elect to initially perform a quantitative assessment and bypass the qualitative assessment. Quantitative goodwill impairment assessments require a significant amount of management judgment, and a meaningful change in the forecasted future revenues and cash flows, the discount rate, and the determination of market multiples used in testing goodwill for impairment could result in a material impact on the Company’s results of operations and financial position.

A goodwill impairment loss is recognized for the amount that the carrying amount of a reporting unit, including goodwill, exceeds its fair value, limited to the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. Therefore, if the fair value of a reporting unit exceeds its carrying amount, goodwill of the reporting unit is not impaired. Our reporting units for our goodwill impairment analysis represent components of our business at one level below our operating segments.

As of the annual impairment testing date of October 1, 2024, the Company performed a quantitative assessment for its Galileo and Technisys reporting units. Management calculated the fair value amount of the Galileo and Technisys reporting units using an evenly weighted combination of a DCF calculation, which is a form of the income approach, and a market multiples calculation, which is a form of the market approach.

The discount rates used for the Galileo and Technisys reporting units in our annual quantitative assessment were 13.2% and 19.7%, respectively. The higher discount rate at Technisys was primarily driven by macroeconomic factors in Latin America, specifically the highly inflationary economic environment in Argentina. Additionally, management applied a terminal year long-term growth rate of 4.0% to both reporting units.

As a result of this assessment, the fair value of the Galileo and Technisys reporting units were determined to be above their respective carrying values, though not substantially, which resulted in no impairment at October 1, 2024.

If the discount rate applied to the estimated cash flows was increased or decreased by 50 basis points, the fair value of the Galileo and Technisys reporting units would decrease or increase by approximately 7% and 5%, respectively. Similarly, if the long-term growth rate was increased or decreased by 50 basis points, the fair value of the Galileo and Technisys reporting units would increase or decrease by approximately 3% and 2%, respectively.

As of December 31, 2024 the amount of goodwill assigned to Galileo and Technisys was $816.0 million and $522.6 million, respectively.

For each of our other reporting units, the Company performed a qualitative “step zero” analysis as of its annual impairment testing date of October 1, 2024. The Company evaluated events and circumstances since the last assessment date to

131

determine if it was more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting units were less than their respective carrying amounts. The factors evaluated included an assessment of macroeconomic conditions, industry and market conditions, key financial metrics, overall financial performance of the reporting unit, or any other specific events or changes. As a result of this assessment, the fair value of these reporting units was determined to be above their respective carrying values which resulted in no impairment loss as of October 1, 2024.

For all of our reporting units, management continued to monitor events and circumstances after October 1 annual testing date and through December 31, 2024, concluding that it was not more-likely-than-not that the fair value of any of our reporting units was below its respective carrying value as of December 31, 2024.

Management cannot predict the occurrence of certain events or changes in circumstances that might adversely affect the value of goodwill. We continue to monitor the aforementioned conditions, general macroeconomic deterioration, including the interest rate environment, inflationary pressures, and the potential for a prolonged economic downturn or recession, as well as other factors, including those listed in "Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements" and "Risk Factors" in Part I, Item 1A of this Annual Report. Further persistence of the aforementioned conditions and these other factors could result in additional impairment charges in future periods.

See Note 8. Goodwill and Intangible Assets to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional disclosures related to goodwill.

Valuation Allowance on Deferred Tax Assets

Determining our deferred tax assets, including any related valuation allowance, and assessing their realizability, requires significant judgements and assumptions. To the extent that our judgements and assumptions materially change, or if actual circumstances differ materially from those in the assumptions, our financial statements could be materially impacted, by the recognition of deferred tax expense and increases to our valuation allowance.

We recognize deferred tax assets for the expected future tax benefits of temporary differences between the financial reporting and tax basis of assets, as well as for net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets are measured using tax rates that are expected to apply to taxable income for the years in which those assets are expected to be realized. A significant portion of the Company’s deferred tax assets relate to U.S. federal and state jurisdictions.

In connection with recording deferred taxes, management assesses the likelihood that deferred tax assets are more likely than not to be realized. A valuation allowance is recorded if, in management’s judgment, it is determined that it is not more-likely-than-not that all or some portion of the deferred tax asset will be realized. We evaluate our deferred tax assets quarterly to determine whether adjustments to our valuation allowance are appropriate in light of changes in facts and circumstances.

Management reviews all evidence, both positive and negative, to determine whether it is more likely than not that our deferred tax assets are realizable. Examples of positive or negative evidence include cumulative income, projections of future profitability, future reversal of deferred tax liabilities, history of U.S. federal and material state tax attributes expiring unused, as well as tax planning strategies. Management defines cumulative income as the most recent three years of pre-tax income adjusted for certain non-recurring, non-taxable, or non-deductible transactions. Generally, the weight we give to any particular factor is dependent upon the degree to which it can be objectively verified. As a result, we give greater weight to the recent cumulative income of a relevant jurisdiction than other more subjective factors.

During the fourth quarter of 2024, based on this assessment, management concluded that cumulative income combined with projections of future profitability provided substantial positive evidence that outweighs the negative evidence to support the realization of certain of the Company's deferred tax assets, primarily related to U.S. and certain state jurisdictions. As a result, during the fourth quarter of 2024, the Company released $258.4 million of its valuation allowance. We continue to maintain a valuation allowance of $30.7 million in certain state and foreign jurisdictions where sufficient positive evidence does not exist to support the realizability of deferred tax assets. Management will continue to assess the need for a valuation allowance in future periods.

Item 7. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion and analysis provides information that management believes is relevant to an assessment and understanding of our consolidated results of operations and financial condition. You should read this discussion and analysis in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K. Certain amounts may not foot or tie to other disclosures due to rounding. Certain information in this discussion and analysis or set forth elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K contains forward-looking statements that involve numerous risks and uncertainties, including, but not limited to, those described under the sections entitled “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” and Part I, Item 1A. “Risk Factors”. We assume no obligation to update any of these forward-looking statements. Actual results may differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements.

Business Overview

We are a member-centric, one-stop shop for financial services that allows members to borrow, save, spend, invest and protect their money. We refer to our customers as “members”, as defined under “Key Business Metrics”. Our mission is to help our members achieve financial independence in order to realize their ambitions. We were founded in 2011 and have developed a suite of financial products that offers the speed, selection, content and convenience that only an integrated digital platform can provide. Everything we do today is geared toward helping our members “Get Your Money Right” and we strive to innovate and build ways for our members to achieve this goal.

In order to help achieve our mission, we offer personal loans, student loans, home loans and related servicing, as well as senior secured loans. We also offer a variety of financial services products, such as SoFi Money checking and savings, SoFi Credit Card, SoFi Invest, and SoFi Relay, that provide more daily interactions with our members, and we offer products and capabilities, such as SoFi At Work, that are designed to appeal to enterprises. We continued to expand our platform capabilities for enterprises through: (i) our acquisition of Galileo in 2020, which provides technology platform services to financial and non-financial institutions and which has allowed us to vertically integrate across more of our financial services, and (ii) the Technisys Merger in the first quarter of 2022, through which we expanded our technology platform services to include a cloud-native, customizable, extensible core technology as well as access to a broader international market. We believe that these expansions will deepen our participation in the entire technology ecosystem powering digital financial services.

See Item 1. “Business—Our Reportable Segments” for a discussion of our segments and their corresponding products. The discussion below focuses on the ways in which our key products and services within each reportable segment generate revenues and/or incur expenses for the Company.

Business Highlights

We achieved strong results for our company for the year ended December 31, 2023, including record total net revenue of $2.1 billion, representing an increase of 35% over total net revenue in 2022. Record revenue at the company level was driven by record net revenue across all three of our business segments. We realized strong momentum in member and product growth and cross-buy adds, reflecting the benefits of our broad product suite and Financial Services Productivity Loop strategy. We added approximately 2.3 million new members during 2023, with over 7.5 million total members as of December 31, 2023, a 44% year over year increase. We also added approximately 3.2 million new products, with over 11.1 million total products as of December 31, 2023, a 41% year over year increase.

Lending segment contribution profit of $823.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2023, at a margin of 60%, increased 24% over 2022, which had a contribution margin of 58%. Total net revenue of $1.4 billion for the year ended December 31, 2023 increased 20% over 2022. Additionally, average net interest margin of 5.88% in 2023 increased 48 basis points compared to 5.40% in 2022. Growth in net interest income was driven by an increase in both average interest-earning assets and average yields, partially offset by an increase in the cost of interest-bearing liabilities. Origination volume increased 34% year over year, primarily driven by demand for personal loans and despite continued macroeconomic headwinds in the student and home loan businesses. Student loans saw some increasing demand in the third quarter of 2023 ahead of the resumption of principal and interest payments on federally-held student loans, and we expect that we may continue to see modest growth in student loan refinancing. Our acquisition of Wyndham in the second quarter of 2023 provided increased capacity and capabilities for our home loans product, which contributed to a notable year over year increase in home loans, and which we expect to continue to provide benefits, while we expect overall home loans growth could be correlated with rate movements in 2024.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Technology Platform segment contribution profit of $94.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2023 increased 24% over 2022, and total net revenue of $352.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2023 increased 12% over 2022. Growth was driven by continued strong organic growth of existing partners and new product adoption, as well as notable contributions from increasingly diversified clients which have launched within the second half of 2023. Margin improvements were driven primarily by Galileo account growth and decreases in directly attributable expenses, as we begin to realize the benefits of earlier investments made to support Technology Platform product development and the integration of Galileo and Technisys. The year over year comparison was also impacted by a partial period of contribution from Technisys in 2022 compared to a full period of contribution in 2023. We continue to make significant strides in our strategy of leveraging our unique product suite to pursue diversified growth and expansion via new products and geographies, in addition to larger, more durable revenue opportunities. We expect growth in segment revenue to continue to accelerate in 2024, as we are well positioned to capture opportunities from traditional financial institutions and nonfinancial categories.

Within Financial Services, contribution loss of $0.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2023 significantly improved compared to a contribution loss of $199.4 million in 2022, and reflected positive contribution profit during the third and fourth quarters of 2023. Total net revenue of $436.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2023 increased 160% over 2022. We achieved continued strong growth in deposits, ending the year with $18.6 billion of deposits as of December 31, 2023, allowing us to maintain diversified sources of funding and driving an increase in net interest income earned on our deposits. In addition, we grew total Financial Services products by 45% year over year. We continue to realize scale in our marketing spend and improvement in operating leverage in the segment. We expect to continue to scale our products through increased brand awareness and network effects, and continue to improve contribution profit in the segment.

The strength of our results underscores our belief that our suite of differentiated products and services provides the foundation for a diversified business that can endure through market cycles as well as exogenous factors. For instance, our access to multiple channels of funding, including deposit and loan warehouse funding, provides an advantage via increased optionality in sourcing liquidity through different environments and periods of capital markets volatility, as well as increases our flexibility to capture additional net interest margin and optimize returns, which typically provides more stable earnings in any macroeconomic environment but is particularly important during times of excess macroeconomic volatility.

During 2023, we continued to have strong deposit contribution from direct deposit members with a high quality median FICO score. We expect that our funding mix will continue to move towards deposit funding, which has a lower borrowing cost of funds than our warehouse and securitization financing model. We also provided our members with access to expanded FDIC insurance coverage through a network of participating banks in our Insured Deposit Program, further enhancing our benefits offering to our members. Our total capital ratio, as calculated under applicable regulatory capital rules, was 15.3% as of December 31, 2023. See Note 21.

Net interest income, which we define as the difference between the earned interest income and interest expense to finance loans, is a key component of the profitability of our Lending segment. We implemented an FTP framework to attribute net interest income to our business segments based on their usage and/or provision of funding, under which Lending segment net interest income represents the difference between interest income earned on our loans and an FTP charge for the segment’s use of funds to originate loans, which can fluctuate based on changes in interest rates, funding curves, the composition of our balance sheet and the availability of capital. See Note 20. Business Segment and Geographic Information to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information on the FTP framework.

Technology Platform Segment

We earn technology products and solutions fees for providing an integrated platform as a service for financial and non-financial institutions. Many of our Technology Platform segment contracts are multi-year contracts. In certain of our contracts, we provide for a variety of integrated platform services, which vary by client and are either non-cancellable or cancellable with a substantive payment. Pricing structures under these contracts are typically volume-based, or a combination of activity and volume-based, and payment terms are predominantly monthly in arrears. Many of these contracts contain minimum monthly payments, which may result in credits if we do not meet the agreed upon monthly service levels. We also earn subscription and service fees for providing software licenses and associated services, including implementation, maintenance and subsequent development work. We charge a recurring subscription fee for the software license and related maintenance services. Other software-related services are billed on a periodic basis as the services are provided. Certain arrangements for software and related services contain a provision for a fixed upfront payment.

Financial Services Segment

We earn revenues in connection with our Financial Services segment primarily in the following ways:

•Net interest income: Net interest income is a key component of the profitability of our Financial Services segment as it relates primarily to our SoFi Money and credit card products. Net interest income on SoFi Money is based on interest income determined using our FTP framework, net of interest expense based on the interest rate offered to our members on their deposits. Net interest income on credit card is based on the contractual interest included in credit card agreements, net of interest expense as determined using the FTP framework. See Note 20. Business Segment and Geographic Information to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information on the FTP framework.

•Referral fees: Through strategic partnerships, we earn a specified referral fee in connection with referral activity we facilitate through our platform. Referral fees are paid to us by third-party partners that offer services to end users who do not use one of our product offerings, but who were referred to the partners through our platform. We also earn referral fulfillment fees for providing pre-qualified borrower referrals to a third-party partner who separately contracts with a loan originator. Our referral fee is calculated as either a fixed price per successful referral or a percentage of the transaction volume between the enterprise partners and referred consumers.

•Interchange fees: We earn interchange fees from our SoFi-branded debit cards and credit cards. These fees are remitted by merchants and represent a percentage of the underlying transaction value processed through a payment network. We engage a card association and enter into contracts that establish the shared economics of SoFi-branded transaction cards.

•Brokerage fees: We earn brokerage fees primarily from our share lending and payment for order flow arrangements related to our SoFi Invest product, in which we benefit through a negotiated multi-year revenue sharing arrangement, since our members' brokerage activity drives the share lending and payment for order flow volume.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Our management and Board of Directors use adjusted net revenue and adjusted EBITDA, which are non-GAAP financial measures, to evaluate our operating performance, formulate business plans, help better assess our overall liquidity position and make strategic decisions, including those relating to operating expenses and the allocation of internal resources. Accordingly, we believe that these non-GAAP measures provide useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating our operating results in the same manner as our management and Board of Directors.

Adjusted Net Revenue

Adjusted net revenue is defined as total net revenue, adjusted to exclude the fair value changes in servicing rights and residual interests classified as debt due to valuation inputs and assumptions changes, which relate only to our Lending segment, as well as gains and losses on extinguishment of debt. We adjust total net revenue to exclude these items, as they are non-cash charges that are not realized during the period, and therefore positive or negative changes do not impact the cash available to fund our operations. This measure helps provide our management with an understanding of the net revenue available to finance our operations and helps management better decide on the proper expenses to authorize for each of our operating segments, to ultimately help achieve target contribution profit margins. Therefore, the measure of adjusted net revenue serves as both the starting point for how we think about the liquidity generated from our operations and also the starting point for our annual financial planning, the latter of which focuses on the cash we expect to generate from our operating segments to help fund the current year’s strategic objectives. Adjusted net revenue has limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, the analysis of other GAAP financial measures, such as total net revenue. The primary limitation of adjusted net revenue is its lack of comparability to other companies that do not utilize this measure or that use a similar measure that is defined in a different manner.

__________________

(1)Reflects changes in fair value inputs and assumptions on servicing rights, including conditional prepayment, default rates and discount rates. These assumptions are highly sensitive to market interest rate changes and are not indicative of our performance or results of operations. Moreover, these non-cash charges are unrealized during the period and, therefore, have no impact on our cash flows from operations. As such, these positive and negative changes are adjusted out of total net revenue to provide management and financial users with better visibility into the net revenue available to finance our operations and our overall performance.

(2)Reflects changes in fair value inputs and assumptions on residual interests classified as debt, including conditional prepayment, default rates and discount rates. When third parties finance our consolidated securitization VIEs by purchasing residual interests, we receive proceeds at the time of the closing of the securitization and, thereafter, pass along contractual cash flows to the residual interest owner. These residual debt obligations are measured at fair value on a recurring basis, but they have no impact on our initial financing proceeds, our future obligations to the residual interest owner (because future residual interest claims are limited to contractual securitization collateral cash flows), or the general operations of our business. As such, these positive and negative non-cash changes in fair value attributable to assumption changes are adjusted out of total net revenue to provide management and financial users with better visibility into the net revenue available to finance our operations.

(3)Reflects gain on extinguishment of debt. Gains and losses are recognized during the period of extinguishment for the difference between the net carrying amount of debt extinguished and the fair value of equity securities issued. These non-cash charges are not indicative of our core operating performance, and as such are adjusted out of total net revenue to provide management and financial users with better visibility into the net revenue available to finance our operations and our overall performance.

Adjusted EBITDA

Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income (loss), adjusted to exclude, as applicable: (i) corporate borrowing-based interest expense (our adjusted EBITDA measure is not adjusted for warehouse or securitization-based interest expense, nor deposit interest expense and finance lease liability interest expense, as these are direct operating expenses), (ii) income tax expense (benefit), (iii) depreciation and amortization, (iv) share-based expense (inclusive of equity-based payments to non-employees), (v) restructuring charges (vi) impairment expense (inclusive of goodwill impairment and property, equipment and software abandonments), (vii) transaction-related expenses, (viii) foreign currency impacts related to operations in highly inflationary countries, (ix) fair value changes in warrant liabilities, (x) fair value changes in each of servicing rights and residual interests classified as debt due to valuation assumptions, (xi) gain on extinguishment of debt, and (xii) other charges, as appropriate, that are not expected to recur and are not indicative of our core operating performance. We believe adjusted EBITDA provides a useful measure to investors for period-over-period comparisons of our business, as it removes the effects of certain non-cash items and certain charges that are not indicative of our core operating performance or results of operations. It is also a measure that management relies upon to evaluate cash flows generated from operations, and therefore the extent of additional capital, if any, required to invest in strategic initiatives. Adjusted EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, the analysis of other GAAP financial measures, such as net income (loss). Some of the limitations of adjusted EBITDA include that it does not reflect the impact of working capital requirements or capital expenditures and it is not a universally consistent calculation among companies in our industry, which limits its usefulness as a comparative measure.

___________________

(1)Our adjusted EBITDA measure adjusts for corporate borrowing-based interest expense, as these expenses are a function of our capital structure. Corporate borrowing-based interest expense includes interest on our revolving credit facility and the amortization of debt discount and debt issuance costs on our convertible notes, and for 2021, interest on the seller note issued in connection with our acquisition of Galileo. Revolving credit facility interest expense in 2023 and 2022 increased due to higher interest rates relative to the prior years on identical outstanding debt.

(2)Income taxes in 2023 were primarily attributable to income tax benefits from foreign losses in jurisdictions with net deferred tax liabilities related to Technisys, offset by income tax expense associated with the profitability of SoFi Bank in state jurisdictions where separate filings are required, as well as federal taxes where our tax credits and loss carryforwards may be limited. Income taxes in 2022 were primarily attributable to tax expense at SoFi Lending Corp and SoFi Bank due to profitability in state jurisdictions where separate filings are required and recognition of expense from Technisys in certain Latin American countries where separate returns are filed. The expense was partially offset by deferred tax benefits from the amortization of intangible assets acquired in the Technisys Merger. Income taxes in 2021 were primarily attributable to the profitability of SoFi Lending Corp. profitability in state jurisdictions where separate filings are required. See Note 17. Income Taxes to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.

(3)Depreciation and amortization expense in 2023 increased compared to 2022 primarily in connection with acquisitions and growth in our internally-developed software balance. The increase in 2022 compared to 2021 was primarily in connection with acquisitions and growth in our software balance, partially offset by the acceleration of core banking infrastructure amortization during the 2021 period.

(4)Restructuring charges in 2023 primarily included employee-related wages, benefits and severance associated with a small reduction in headcount in our Technology Platform segment in the first quarter of 2023 and expenses in the fourth quarter of 2023 related to a reduction in headcount across the Company, which do not reflect expected future operating expenses and are not indicative of our core operating performance.

(5)Impairment expense in 2023 includes $247,174 related to goodwill impairment, and $1,243 related to a sublease arrangement, which are not indicative of our core operating performance.

(6)Foreign currency charges reflect the impacts of highly inflationary accounting for our operations in Argentina, which are related to our Technology Platform segment and commenced in the first quarter of 2022 with the Technisys Merger. For the year ended December 31, 2023, all amounts were reflected in the fourth quarter, as inter-quarter amounts were determined to be immaterial. Amounts in 2022 were determined to be immaterial.

(7)Transaction-related expenses in 2023 and 2022 primarily included financial advisory and professional services costs associated with our acquisitions of Wyndham and Technisys, respectively. Transaction-related expenses in 2021 included the special payment to the holders of Series 1 Redeemable Preferred Stock in conjunction with the Business Combination and financial advisory and professional costs associated with our then-pending acquisitions of Golden Pacific and Technisys.

(8)Our adjusted EBITDA measure excludes the non-cash fair value changes in warrants accounted for as liabilities, which were measured at fair value through earnings. The amount in 2021 related to changes in the fair value of Series H warrants issued by Social Finance in connection with certain redeemable preferred stock issuances. We did not measure the Series H warrants at fair value subsequent to May 28, 2021 in conjunction with the Business Combination, as they were reclassified into permanent equity. In addition, in conjunction with the Business Combination, SoFi Technologies assumed certain common stock warrants (“SoFi Technologies warrants”) that were accounted for as liabilities and measured at fair value on a recurring basis. The fair value of the SoFi Technologies warrants was based on the closing price of ticker SOFIW and, therefore, fluctuated based on market activity. The outstanding SoFi Technologies warrants were either exercised during the fourth quarter of 2021 or redeemed on December 6, 2021.

(9)Reflects changes in fair value inputs and assumptions, including market servicing costs, conditional prepayment, default rates and discount rates. This non-cash change is unrealized during the period and, therefore, has no impact on our cash flows from operations. As such, these positive and negative changes in fair value attributable to assumption changes are adjusted out of net loss to provide management and financial users with better visibility into the earnings available to finance our operations.

Members

We refer to our customers as “members”. We define a member as someone who has a lending relationship with us through origination and/or ongoing servicing, opened a financial services account, linked an external account to our platform or signed up for our credit score monitoring service. Our members have continuous access to our CFPs, our career advice services, our member events, our content, educational material, news, and our tools and calculators, which are provided at no cost to the member. Additionally, our mobile app and website have a member home feed that is personalized and delivers content to a

member about what they must do that day in their financial life, what they should consider doing that day in their financial life, and what they can do that day in their financial life.

Once someone becomes a member, they are always considered a member unless they violate our terms of service. We adjust our total number of members in the event a member is removed in accordance with our terms of service. This could occur for a variety of reasons—including fraud or pursuant to certain legal processes—and, as our terms of service evolve together with our business practices, product offerings and applicable regulations, our grounds for removing members from our total member count could change. The determination that a member should be removed in accordance with our terms of service is subject to an evaluation process, following the completion, and based on the results, of which, relevant members and their associated products are removed from our total member count in the period in which such evaluation process concludes. However, depending on the length of the evaluation process, that removal may not take place in the same period in which the member was added to our member count or the same period in which the circumstances leading to their removal occurred. For this reason, our total member count may not yet reflect adjustments that may be made once ongoing evaluation processes, if any, conclude.

We view members as an indication not only of the size and a measurement of growth of our business, but also as a measure of the significant value of the data we have collected over time. The data we collect from our members helps us to, among other things: (i) assess loan life performance data on each loan in our ecosystem, which can inform risk-based interest rates that we can offer our members, (ii) understand our members’ spending behavior to identify and suggest other products we offer that may align with the members’ financial needs, and (iii) enhance our opportunities to sell additional products to our members, as our members represent a vital source of marketing opportunities. When we provide additional products to members, it helps improve our unit economics per member, as we save on marketing costs that we would otherwise incur to attract new members. It also increases the lifetime value of an individual member. This in turn enhances our Financial Services Productivity Loop. Member growth is generally an indicator of future revenue, but is not directly correlated with revenues, since not all members who sign up for one of our products fully utilize or continue to use our products, and not all of our products (such as our complimentary product, SoFi Relay) provide direct sources of revenue.

Since our inception through December 31, 2023, we have served approximately 7.5 million members who have used approximately 11.1 million products on the SoFi platform.

Total Products

Total products refers to the aggregate number of lending and financial services products that our members have selected on our platform since our inception through the reporting date, whether or not the members are still registered for such products. Total products is a primary indicator of the size and reach of our Lending and Financial Services segments. Management relies on total products metrics to understand the effectiveness of our member acquisition efforts and to gauge the propensity for members to use more than one product.

In our Lending segment, total products refers to the number of personal loans, student loans and home loans that have been originated through our platform through the reporting date, whether or not such loans have been paid off. If a member has multiple loan products of the same loan product type, such as two personal loans, that is counted as a single product. However,

if a member has multiple loan products across loan product types, such as one personal loan and one home loan, that is counted as two products.

In our Financial Services segment, total products refers to the number of SoFi Money accounts (inclusive of checking and savings accounts held at SoFi Bank and cash management accounts), SoFi Invest accounts, SoFi Credit Card accounts (including accounts with a zero dollar balance at the reporting date), referred loans (which are originated by a third-party partner to which we provide pre-qualified borrower referrals), SoFi At Work accounts and SoFi Relay accounts (with either credit score monitoring enabled or external linked accounts) that have been opened through our platform through the reporting date. Checking and savings accounts are considered one account within our total products metric. Our SoFi Invest service is composed of three products: active investing accounts, robo-advisory accounts and digital assets accounts. Our members can select any one or combination of the types of SoFi Invest products. See Note 1. Organization, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and New Accounting Standards for additional information on the transfer of the crypto services. If a member has multiple SoFi Invest products of the same account type, such as two active investing accounts, that is counted as a single product. However, if a member has multiple SoFi Invest products across account types, such as one active investing account and one robo-advisory account, those separate account types are considered separate products. In the event a member is removed in accordance with our terms of service, as discussed under “Members” above, the member’s associated products are also removed.

Technology Platform Total Accounts

In our Technology Platform segment, total accounts refers to the number of open accounts at Galileo as of the reporting date. We include intercompany accounts on the Galileo platform as a service in our total accounts metric to better align with the Technology Platform segment revenue reported in Note 20. Business Segment and Geographic Information to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, which includes intercompany revenue. Intercompany revenue is eliminated in consolidation. Total accounts is a primary indicator of the accounts dependent upon our technology platform to use virtual card products, virtual wallets, make peer-to-peer and bank-to-bank transfers, receive early paychecks, separate savings from spending balances, make debit transactions and rely upon real-time authorizations, all of which result in revenues for the Technology Platform segment. We do not measure total accounts for the Technisys products and solutions, as the revenue model is not primarily dependent upon being a fully integrated, stand-ready service.

Key Factors Affecting Operating Results

Our future operating results and cash flows are dependent upon a number of opportunities, challenges and other factors, including our loan origination volume, financial services products and member activity on our platform, growth in technology platform clients, competition and industry trends, general economic conditions and our ability to optimize our national bank charter.

Origination Volume

Our Lending segment is our largest segment, comprising 65%, 72% and 75% of total net revenue during the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021, respectively. We are dependent upon the addition of new members and new activity from existing members within our Lending segment to generate origination volume, which we believe is a contributor to Lending segment net revenue. We believe we have a high-quality loan portfolio, as indicated by our Lending segment weighted average origination FICO score of 749 during the year ended December 31, 2023. See “Industry Trends and General Economic Conditions” for the impact of specific economic factors on origination volume.

Member Growth and Activity

We have invested heavily in our platform and are dependent on continued member growth, as well as our ability to generate additional revenues from our existing members using additional products and services. Member growth and activity is critical to our ability to increase our scale and earn a return on our technology and product investments. Growth in members and member activity will depend heavily on our ability to continue to offer attractive products and services at sustainable costs and our continued member acquisition and marketing efforts.

Product Growth

Our aim is to develop and offer a best-in-class integrated financial services platform with products that meet the broad objectives of our members and the lifecycle of their financial needs. We have invested, and continue to invest, heavily in the development, improvement and marketing of our suite of lending and financial services products and are dependent on continued growth in the number of products selected by our members, as well as our ability to build trust and reliability between our members and our platform to reinforce the effects of the Financial Services Productivity Loop. In order to deliver on our strategy, we aim to foster positive member experiences designed to lead to more product adoption by existing members, leading to enhanced profitability for each additional product by lowering overall member acquisition costs.

Galileo Account Growth

Galileo primarily provides technology platform services to financial and non-financial institutions, which enabled us to diversify our business from a primarily consumer-based business to also serve enterprises that rely upon Galileo’s integrated platform as a service to serve their clients. We are dependent on growth in the number of accounts at Galileo, which is an indication of the amount of users that are dependent upon the technology platform for a variety of products and services, including virtual card products, virtual wallets, peer-to-peer and bank-to-bank transfers, early paychecks and relying on real-time authorizations, all of which generate revenue for Galileo.

SoFi Bank

A key element of our long-term strategy has been to secure a national bank charter. In February 2022, we closed the Bank Merger and began operating Golden Pacific Bank as SoFi Bank. In connection with operating a national bank, we have incurred and expect to continue to incur additional costs primarily associated with headcount, technology infrastructure, governance, compliance and risk management, marketing, and other general and administrative expenses.

See Part I, Item 1. “Company Overview—SoFi Bank” for a discussion of the key expected financial benefits to us of operating a national bank. See Part I, Item 1A. “Risk Factors” for discussion of certain potential risks related to being a bank holding company.

Industry Trends and General Economic Conditions

Our results of operations have historically been relatively resilient to economic downturns but in the future may be impacted by the relative strength of the overall economy and its effect on unemployment, asset markets and consumer spending. As general economic conditions improve or deteriorate, the amount of consumer disposable income tends to fluctuate, which in turn impacts consumer spending levels and the willingness of consumers to take out loans to finance purchases or invest in financial assets. Specific economic factors, such as interest rate levels, changes in monetary and related policies, unemployment rates, market volatility, consumer confidence and changing expectations for inflation and deflation, also influence consumer spending, saving, investing and borrowing patterns.

The Federal Reserve increased the benchmark interest rate throughout 2022 and several times in 2023, largely in response to high inflation, low unemployment and strong consumer demand, while balancing macroeconomic risks, such as increased market volatility. We have continued to see strong demand for our deposits as a result of our competitive interest rate offering and access to expanded FDIC insurance coverage through a network of participating banks in our Insured Deposit Program. However, rising interest rates have unfavorably impacted, and could continue to unfavorably impact, demand for refinancing loan products. Economic and market volatility may continue to occur and could worsen, including if there is additional turmoil in the banking and financial services sectors, which could adversely impact our liquidity, results of operations and financial condition. These market developments have negatively impacted customer confidence in the safety and soundness of certain banks. As a result, although we have not observed a decline in our overall deposits to date, our members may choose to maintain deposits with other financial institutions or spread their deposit funds among multiple financial institutions. In addition, if the Federal Reserve does not effectively curb inflation or interest rates further rise unexpectedly or too quickly or macroeconomic conditions deteriorate or do not improve, it could have a negative impact on the overall economy and result in increased unemployment, which could adversely impact our results of operations. In 2023, we saw a continuation

from 2022 of elevated credit spreads across capital markets and changes in consumer credit. Our increased personal loan annualized charge-off rate year over year was reflective of our expectation of credit metrics to revert over time to more normalized levels, but remains healthy, while our higher credit card annualized charge-off rate was reflective of our maturing portfolio. Negative changes to macroeconomic conditions may result in decreased demand for our products, increased operating costs and negatively impact our results of operations.

Fair Value of Loans

We measure our personal loans, student loans and home loans at fair value. During the year ended December 31, 2023, we transferred home loans out of Level 3 and into Level 2 due to an update to pricing sources utilized by third-party valuation specialists, as part of the integration of Wyndham. Other loans do not trade in an active market with readily observable prices and are classified as Level 3.

Our fair value adjustments on loans impact our consolidated results of operations and include adjustments related to loans originated during the period, loans held at the balance sheet date, as well as gains (losses) on loans sold or repurchased during the period. Fair value adjustments made in each reporting period are impacted by factors such as, among others, interest rates, weighted average coupon, credit spreads, actual and estimated losses, prepayment speeds, duration and previous loan sale execution on similar loans. In determining our fair value assumptions, we incorporate recent data impacting the capital markets, as well as factors specific to us. Changes in these factors, either positive or negative, can have a material impact on our results of operations.

The following table summarizes the significant inputs to the fair value model for personal and student loans:

Personal LoansStudent Loans

Weighted average discount rate5.56.64.34.8

___________________

(1)Represents the average coupon rate on loans held on balance sheet, weighted by unpaid principal balance outstanding at the balance sheet date.

As of the fourth quarter of 2023 relative to the third quarter of 2023, we observed the following trends:

•The weighted average coupon rates on personal loans and student loans increased by 4 bps and 24 bps, respectively, which reflects rate increases passed on to borrowers related to benchmark interest rates increases during the fourth quarter.

•The weighted average discount rates on personal loans and student loans decreased by 103 bps and 57, respectively, as of December 31, 2023 compared to September 30, 2023. For personal loans, our discount rate assumptions decreased in the fourth quarter due to benchmark rates declining by 90 bps, as well as spreads tightening by 13 bps. For student loans, our discount rate assumptions decreased in the fourth quarter due to benchmark rates declining by 86 bps, as well as spreads widening by 29 bps. Spread changes are indicated by asset-backed security and secondary bond markets.

•Annualized net charge-off rates on personal loans and student loans in the fourth quarter of 2023 were 3.98% and 0.59%, respectively, which remained lower than the assumed weighted average default rates in our fair value model of 4.76% and 0.61%, respectively. Our fair value assumption for annual default rate incorporates fair value markdowns on loans beginning when they are 10 days or more delinquent, with additional markdowns at 30 days, 60 days and 90 days past due. For instance, personal loans are marked down on average 70% when the loans are 30 days past due.

The combination of these and other factors resulted in fair value gains recognized on our personal loans and student loans portfolios during the fourth quarter of 2023.

Student Loan Relief

In June 2023, Congress passed the Fiscal Responsibility Act of 2023 which, among other things, ended the suspension of principal and interest payments on federally-held student loans pursuant to the CARES Act passed in 2020, which became effective 60 days after June 30, 2023, as well as prohibits the Secretary of Education from implementing any extension of any

TABLE OF CONTENTS

executive action or rule pursuant thereto. Additionally, in August 2022, President Biden announced relief measures for federal student loan borrowers, including forgiveness of $10,000 of student loans (or up to $20,000 if student loans are Pell Grants) for anyone earning less than $125,000 annually and certain changes to income-driven repayment plans for student loans (the “Biden Forgiveness Program”). Although the U.S. Supreme Court subsequently struck down the Biden Forgiveness Program, President Biden indicated between October 1, 2023 and September 30, 2024, he would allow federal loan borrowers to not be considered delinquent if they miss a payment and that the U.S. Department of Education will not refer borrowers who fail to pay their student loan bills to credit agencies. In addition, on July 14, 2023, President Biden announced that $39 billion in federal student loan debt would be eliminated to remedy mistakes of loan servicers, and other student loan holders will have their loans adjusted. On October 4, 2023, the Biden Administration approved an additional 125,000 borrowers for student loan debt relief, totaling an additional $9 billion in student debt forgiveness.

While we expect we may continue to see an increase in student loan refinancing volume following the end of the federal student loan payment moratorium after August 30, 2023, as borrowers may look to refinance at a lower rate or, given the high interest rate environment, may look to extend the loan term, the timing and impact to our student loan refinancing product will largely depend on expectations regarding the introduction or implementation of additional relief measures, the interest rate environment, how competitive our student loan refinancing products are compared to our competitors and macroeconomic factors.

Key Components of Results of Operations

Net Interest Income

Net interest income primarily reflects the excess of interest income earned on our loans over the interest expense incurred to fund such loans. Net interest income is impacted by loan origination volume, the level of securitization activity, the amount of time we hold loans on our consolidated balance sheet and the volume of member deposits, as well as prevailing interest rates, which impact the rates we receive on our loans and securitization-related investments in bonds and residual interest positions, and the rates we incur from our funding sources including our warehouse facilities, securitization debt and member deposits at SoFi Bank. We also incur interest expense related to our revolving credit facility, as well as on our convertible notes in the form of amortization of debt issuance costs and original issue discount.

Noninterest Income

Noninterest income primarily consists of: (i) revenue recognized from contracts with customers, which primarily relates to our technology products and solutions revenues and has grown due to our recent acquisitions and the growth and expansion of our financial services offerings, (ii) fair value changes in loans while we hold them on our consolidated balance sheet and our securitization activities, inclusive of our hedging activities, (iii) gains on sales of loans transferred into the securitization or whole loan sale channels, (iv) loan origination fees, whereby a borrower may optionally elect to pay origination fees to qualify for a lower annual percentage rate, (v) the income we receive from our loan servicing activities, as well as the assumption of servicing rights from third parties, (vi) gains and losses on non-securitization investments, and (vii) gains and losses on extinguishment of debt.

Noninterest Expense

Noninterest expense primarily relates to the following categories of expenses: (i) technology and product development, (ii) sales and marketing, (iii) cost of operations, and (iv) general and administrative. Certain costs are included within each of these line items, such as compensation and benefits-related expense (inclusive of share-based compensation expense), professional services, depreciation and amortization, and occupancy-related costs. We allocate certain costs to each of these categories based on department-level headcounts. We generally expect these expenses to increase in absolute dollars as our business continues to grow. Noninterest expense also includes the provision for credit losses, which primarily relates to our credit card product, as well as goodwill impairment, related to the Galileo and Technisys reporting units.

Directly Attributable Expenses

As presented within “Summary Results by Segment”, in our determination of the contribution profit (loss) for our reportable segments, we allocate certain expenses that are directly attributable to the segment. Directly attributable expenses primarily include compensation and benefits and sales and marketing, inclusive of member incentives, and vary based on the amount of activity within each segment. Directly attributable expenses also include loan origination and servicing expenses, professional services, product fulfillment and lead generation. Expenses are attributed to the reportable segments using either

(1)Average balances were calculated on daily carrying balances for the 2023 period, and on thirteen-month ending carrying balances for the 2022 and 2021 periods, as the daily analysis in the prior periods would have involved undue burden. Both average calculations are representative of our operations.

(2)Interest income on loans measured at amortized cost for the 2022 and 2021 periods includes amortization of deferred loan fees, net of deferred loan costs, which were not material.

(3)Interest expense on other debt primarily includes debt issuance and discount expense, as well as interest expense on the revolving credit facility and seller note, which was repaid in early 2021.

(4)Net interest income is calculated as the excess of total interest income on interest-earning assets over total interest expense on interest-bearing liabilities.

(5)Net interest margin is calculated as net interest income divided by total average interest-earning assets.

2023 vs. 2022. Net interest income increased by $677.6 million, or 116%, during the year ended December 31, 2023 compared to the year ended December 31, 2022, and net interest margin increased by 48 basis points. The increases were primarily driven by higher interest income from (i) personal loans, which was primarily a function of increases in the average balance and origination volume, as well as longer loan holding periods for both personal and student loans, and (ii) interest-

bearing deposits with banks, which reflected our strong liquidity position in a rising interest rate environment. Average interest-earning assets increased by 98%, and average yields increased by 242 basis points.

These increases were partially offset by higher interest expense on deposits attributable to a higher average balance and higher interest rates offered to our members, and higher interest expense on warehouse facilities attributable to a higher average balance and higher interest rates incurred on our facilities, all of which are reflective of the higher interest rate environment year over year.

2022 vs. 2021. Net interest income increased by $331.9 million, or 132%, during the year ended December 31, 2022 compared to the year ended December 31, 2021, primarily driven by higher interest income from non-securitization personal and student loans, which were primarily a function of increases in average balances, higher personal loan origination volume and longer loan holding periods. This increase was partially offset by interest expense on deposits at SoFi Bank during 2022, and lower interest income from consolidated personal and student loan securitizations, which were impacted by decreases in average balances primarily attributable to payment activity and the absence of additions to our consolidated securitization loan balances.

Net interest margin increased by 145 basis points during the year ended December 31, 2022 compared to the year ended December 31, 2021, primarily driven by higher interest-earning assets at higher average yields, particularly related to non-securitization loans, partially offset by higher interest rates paid on warehouse facilities and interest-bearing deposits used to fund our loan originations.

Total noninterest income decreased by $128.4 million, or 13%, for the year ended December 31, 2023 compared to the year ended December 31, 2022, which was primarily attributable to: (i) higher personal loan write-offs in 2023, (ii) higher origination fees primarily related to a new product feature offered on personal loans, whereby a borrower may optionally elect to pay origination fees to qualify for a lower annual percentage rate, (iii) the net effect of higher income related to in period originations, loan sale execution and fair value adjustments on loans and securitization loans, which were primarily impacted by higher personal loan origination volume, lower student loan prepayment assumptions, and an increase in securitization loan fair market values primarily associated with a consolidated securitization transaction in the first quarter of 2023, partially offset by losses in 2023 compared to gains in 2022 on loan hedging and risk retention hedge activities due to smaller increases in interest rates during the 2023 period, (iv) growth in technology products and solutions fees largely driven

by revenue contribution from Technisys for the full period in 2023, (v) increased interchange revenue, and (vi) gain on extinguishment of debt during 2023.

2022 vs. 2021. Total noninterest income increased by $256.8 million, or 35%, for the year ended December 31, 2022 compared to the year ended December 31, 2021, primarily driven by loan hedging activities due to higher interest rates in 2022, partially offset by lower income related to in period originations, loan sale execution and fair value adjustments on loans, as well as higher loan write offs. The increase was also attributable to growth in technology products and solutions fees driven by account growth and increased activity among our existing integrated technology solutions clients combined with revenue contribution from the Technisys Merger in 2022.

2023 vs. 2022. Total noninterest expense increased by $531.7 million, or 28%, for the year ended December 31, 2023 compared to the year ended December 31, 2022, primarily driven by: (i) goodwill impairment expense related to the Galileo and Technisys reporting units, further discussed within “Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates—Goodwill”, (ii) higher employee compensation and benefits, which was attributable to increases in headcount and salary and the inclusion of Technisys for the full 2023 period compared to a partial period in 2022, related to support of our growth and impacts of the inflationary environment, as well as restructuring charges during the first and fourth quarters of 2023 and partially offset by decreases in share-based compensation expense, (iii) increases in advertising and marketing expenditures, utilization of lead generation channels and direct member incentives, (iv) increased amortization of purchased and internally-developed software, and in tools and subscriptions costs, reflective of continued investments in technology, (v) an increase in product fulfillment costs, which included debit card fulfillment services, primarily related to our SoFi Money product, as well as payment processing network association fees associated with increased activity on our technology platform, and (vi) increases in amortization of intangible assets primarily due to acquired intangible assets in the Technisys Merger and Wyndham acquisition. These increases were partially offset by the absence of transaction expenses that were incurred in the 2022 period related to our acquisition of Technisys.

2022 vs. 2021. Total noninterest expense increased by $426.2 million, or 29%, for the year ended December 31, 2022 compared to the year ended December 31, 2021, primarily driven by: (i) higher employee compensation and benefits (inclusive of an increase in share-based compensation expense), a portion of which was attributable to the Technisys Merger and the remainder of which was related to increased personnel to support our growth in 2022, (ii) increases in advertising expenditures and utilization of lead generation channels, (iii) an increase in the provision for credit losses, which reflected higher average credit card balances combined with elevated credit card loss rates during 2022, (iv) an increase in amortization of intangible assets due to acquired intangible assets in the Technisys Merger, and (v) an increase in purchased and internally-developed software amortization, reflective of continued investments in technology.

(1)Average balances were calculated on daily carrying balances for the 2023 period, and on thirteen-month ending carrying balances for the 2022 and 2021 periods, as the daily analysis in the prior periods would have involved undue burden. Both average calculations are representative of our operations.

(2)Net charge-offs include both credit- and certain non-credit-related charge-offs.

(3)The increase in the net charge-off rate associated with credit card was primarily related to our maturing portfolio.

2022 vs. 2021. The provision for credit losses increased by $46.8 million, which primarily reflected higher average credit card balances combined with elevated credit card loss rates during 2022.

Income Taxes

For the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021, we recorded income tax benefit (expense) of $0.4 million, $(1.7) million, and $(2.8) million, respectively. Our income tax benefit position in 2023 was primarily attributable to income tax benefits from foreign losses in jurisdictions with net deferred tax liabilities related to Technisys. These benefits were offset by income tax expense associated with the profitability of SoFi Bank in state jurisdictions where separate filings are required, as well as federal taxes where our tax credits and loss carryforwards may be limited. Our income tax expense position in 2022 was primarily attributable to tax expense at SoFi Lending Corp. and SoFi Bank due to profitability in state jurisdictions where separate filings are required and recognition of expense from Technisys in certain Latin American countries where separate returns are filed. The expense was partially offset by deferred tax benefits from the amortization of intangible assets acquired in the Technisys Merger.

Summary Results by Segment

Contribution profit (loss) is the primary measure of segment-level profit and loss that, along with our key business metrics, is used by management to evaluate our business, measure our performance, identify trends and make strategic decisions. Contribution profit (loss) is defined as total net revenue for each reportable segment less expenses directly attributable to the reportable segment and, in the case of our Lending segment, adjusted for fair value adjustments attributable to assumption changes associated with our servicing rights and residual interests classified as debt. See the sections entitled “Consolidated Results of Operations”, “Summary Results by Segment” and “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” for discussion and analysis of these key financial measures.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Origination Volume

We refer to the aggregate dollar amount of loans originated through our platform in a given period as origination volume. Origination volume is an indicator of the size and health of our Lending segment and an indicator (together with the relevant loan characteristics, such as interest rate and prepayment and default expectations) of revenues and profitability. Changes in origination volume are driven by the addition of new members and existing members, the latter of which at times will either refinance into a new SoFi loan or secure an additional, concurrent loan, as well as macroeconomic factors impacting consumer spending and borrowing behavior. Since the profitability of the Lending segment is largely correlated with origination volume, management relies on origination volume trends to assess the need for external financing to support the Financial Services segment and the expense budgets for unallocated expenses.

Personal Loans. During the year ended December 31, 2023, personal loan origination volume increased significantly relative to 2022, primarily due to increased demand driven by expanded marketing efforts and increased demand for debt consolidation products in a rising interest rate environment.

Personal loan origination volume increased significantly during the year ended December 31, 2022 compared to 2021, primarily due to increased demand driven by expanded marketing efforts and increased demand for debt consolidation products in a rising interest rate environment. This was combined with a positive impact from increased loan application approval rates within our existing credit parameters that were implemented during the second half of 2021 and maintained through mid-2022, with slight credit tightening implemented in the second half of 2022.

Student Loans. During the year ended December 31, 2023, student loan origination volume increased relative to 2022, as demand for student loan refinancing products increased ahead of the resumption of principal and interest payments on federally-held student loans as borrowers looked to refinance at a lower rate or, given the high interest rate environment, to extend the loan term. This was partially offset by the unfavorable impact of the suspension of principal and interest payments on federally-held student loans through August 30, 2023 and the expectation of debt cancellation for certain federal student loan borrowers which was struck down by the U.S. Supreme Court in June 2023, combined with a continued rising interest rate environment in 2023.

Student loan origination volume decreased significantly during the year ended December 31, 2022 compared to 2021, as demand for student loan refinancing products continued to be unfavorably impacted by the ongoing suspension of principal and interest payments on federally-held student loans and the expectation of debt cancellation for certain federal student loan borrowers, combined with a rising interest rate environment in 2022.

Home Loans. During the year ended December 31, 2023, home loan origination volume remained relatively flat relative to 2022 due to continued rising interest rates, which tends to lower demand for home loans overall and shift demand from refinance originations to purchase originations, the latter of which is a more competitive landscape. Although purchase originations historically represented a smaller percentage of our home loan originations, our mix during the 2023 period has shifted toward more purchase originations, which we would expect to continue under similar macroeconomic conditions. Our home loan origination volume increased notably beginning in the second quarter of 2023, aided by the increased capacity and capabilities subsequent to our acquisition of Wyndham.

Home loan origination volume decreased significantly during the year ended December 31, 2022 compared to 2021 due to continued rising interest rates relative to 2021 levels, which tends to lower demand for home loans overall and shift demand from refinance originations to purchase originations, the latter of which is a more competitive landscape. Although purchase originations have historically represented a smaller percentage of our home loan originations, our mix has shifted toward more purchase originations in the second half of 2022.

Loans with a Balance and Average Loan Balance

Loans with a balance refers to the number of loans that have a balance greater than zero dollars as of the reporting date. Loans with a balance allows management to better understand the unit economics of acquiring a loan in relation to the lifetime value of that loan. Average loan balance is defined as the total unpaid principal balance of the loans divided by loans with a balance within the respective loan product category as of the reporting date. Average loan balance tends to fluctuate based on the pace of loan originations relative to loan repayments and the initial loan origination size.

(1)Reflects changes in fair value inputs and assumptions, including market servicing costs, conditional prepayment, default rates and discount rates. This non-cash change, which is recorded within noninterest income in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss is unrealized during the period and, therefore, has no impact on our cash flows from operations. As such, the changes in fair value attributable to assumption changes are adjusted to provide management and financial users with better visibility into the cash flows available to finance our operations.

(2)Reflects changes in fair value inputs and assumptions, including conditional prepayment, default rates and discount rates. When third parties finance our consolidated VIEs through purchasing residual interests, we receive proceeds at the time of the securitization close and, thereafter, pass along contractual cash flows to the residual interest owner. These obligations are measured at fair value on a recurring basis, with fair value changes recorded within noninterest income in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. The fair value change attributable to assumption changes has no impact on our initial financing proceeds, our future obligations to the residual interest owner (because future residual interest claims are limited to contractual securitization collateral cash flows), or the general operations of our business. As such, this non-cash change in fair value is adjusted to provide management and financial users with better visibility into the cash flows available to finance our operations.

(3)Adjusted net revenue is a non-GAAP financial measure. For information regarding our use and definition of this measure and for a reconciliation to the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measure, total net revenue, see “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” herein.

Net interest income

2023 vs. 2022. Net interest income in our Lending segment increased by $429.3 million, or 81%, for the year ended December 31, 2023 compared to 2022, which was primarily attributable to increases in average personal and student loan unpaid principal balances of $7.0 billion, or 161%, and $1.7 billion, or 49%, respectively, combined with a higher weighted

average interest rate. The personal loan average balance increase was primarily attributable to higher origination volume and longer loan holding periods. The student loan average balance increase was primarily attributable to longer loan holding periods. Interest expense associated with funding our lending activities increased by $732.1 million, or 356%, primarily due to the sharp increases in benchmark rates which are reflective of the higher interest rate environment year over year, as well as higher average loan balances.

2022 vs. 2021. Net interest income in our Lending segment increased by $273.4 million, or 106%, for the year ended December 31, 2022 compared to 2021, which was primarily attributable to non-securitization loans. Higher interest income on non-securitization personal loans and student loans was primarily a function of increases in aggregate average balances of $2.8 billion, or 185%, and $1.3 billion, or 62%, respectively. The personal loan average balance increase was primarily attributable to higher origination volume and purchase activity combined with a higher weighted average interest rate earned on whole loans and longer loan holding periods. The student loan average balance increase was primarily attributable to longer loan holding periods, partially offset by a lower weighted average interest rate earned on whole loans. Interest expense associated with funding our lending activities, which was determined using an FTP framework in 2022 and was based on actual interest expense on our use of securitizations and warehouse facilities in 2021, increased by $115.6 million, or 128%, year over year, primarily due to the sharp increase in benchmark rates.

Noninterest income

2023 vs. 2022. Noninterest income in our Lending segment decreased by $198.7 million, or 33%, for the year ended December 31, 2023 compared to 2022, which was primarily driven by lower loan origination, sales, and securitizations income of $193.3 million.

2022 vs. 2021. Noninterest income in our Lending segment increased by $128.3 million, or 27%, for the year ended December 31, 2022 compared to 2021, which was primarily driven by higher loan origination, sales, and securitizations income of $82.4 million and higher servicing income of $45.6 million.

(1)Includes fair value adjustments on loans originated during the period, fair value adjustments of loans and securitization bond and residual interest positions held at the balance sheet date, as well as gains (losses) on loans sold and consolidated securitization transactions during the period. Fair value adjustments are impacted by interest rates, weighted average coupon, credit spreads and loss estimates, prepayment speeds, duration and previous loan sale execution on similar loans.

(2)Includes IRLCs, interest rate caps and purchase price earn-out.

(3)For the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021, includes gross write-offs of $533.3 million, $131.6 million and $48.7 million, respectively. Total recoveries were $78.1 million, $30.4 million and $19.9 million, respectively, of which $53.7 million, $10.5 million and $5.3 million, respectively, were captured via loan sales to a third-party collection agency.

(4)Represents the (expense) benefit associated with our estimated loan repurchase obligation. See Note 18. Commitments, Guarantees, Concentrations and Contingencies to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.

2023 vs. 2022. The decrease in loan origination, sales, and securitizations income was primarily driven by: (i) higher personal loan write-offs in the 2023 period, primarily driven by longer loan holding periods and elevated charge off rates, (ii) losses in 2023 compared to gains in 2022 on student loan, personal loan and risk retention interest rate swap positions primarily

driven by smaller increases in interest rates during the 2023 period, and (iii) lower gains on home loan pipeline hedges primarily driven by larger increases in the underlying hedge price index during the 2023 period.

These decreases were partially offset by: (i) higher fair value gains on personal loans and lower fair value losses on student loans in the 2023 period, which were primarily impacted by higher origination volume and lower prepayment assumptions, respectively, (ii) higher origination fees primarily related to a new product feature offered on personal loans, whereby a borrower may optionally elect to pay origination fees to qualify for a lower annual percentage rate, (iii) improvement in securitizations income primarily driven by an increase in securitization loan and residual interests in securitization trusts fair market values primarily associated with consolidated securitization transactions in the first and third quarters of 2023, and a positive variance in our securitization bond and residual interest position fair values, (iv) fair value gains on home loans (compared to losses in the 2022 period), which were primarily impacted by smaller decreases in benchmark rates, and (v) losses on home loan and student loan sale execution in the 2022 period, which were due to both volume and price factors.

2022 vs. 2021. The increase in loan origination, sales, and securitizations income was primarily driven by: (i) gains on student loan, personal loan and risk retention interest rate swap positions primarily driven by higher interest rates in 2022, (ii) fair value gains on personal loan originations in the year, partially offset by fair value losses on student loan and home loan originations in the year, each correlated with origination volume, (iii) gains on home loan pipeline hedges due to decreases in the underlying hedge price index, and (iv) favorable changes in residual debt fair value adjustments. This increase was partially offset by: (i) lower fair value marks on loans held on balance sheet at period end (including in period originations) across all loan products, primarily driven by deterioration in general market conditions, (ii) lower execution prices on sales activity across all loan products, due to both volume and price factors, (iii) higher loan write offs, primarily driven by higher average personal loan balances and elevated charge off rates in 2022, (iv) a decrease in securitization loan fair market value changes, principally due to increases in market interest rates, and (v) a decline in securitization bond fair values that were impacted by the interest rate volatility during the 2022 period.

Servicing

We own the master servicing on all of the servicing rights that we retain and, in each case, recognize the gross servicing rate applicable to each serviced loan. Sub-servicers are utilized for all serviced student loans and home loans, which represents a cost to SoFi, but these arrangements do not impact our calculation of the weighted average basis points earned for each loan type serviced. Further, there is no impact on servicing income due to forbearance and moratoriums on certain debt collection activities, and there are no waivers of late fees. The table below presents information related to our loan servicing activities:

The increase in servicing income was primarily related to favorable changes in valuation inputs and assumptions for student loans, which was primarily attributable to decreased prepayment rate assumptions during 2022 compared to increased assumptions during 2021, partially offset by increased discount rate assumptions during 2022.

(1)Other expenses primarily include loan marketing expenses, member promotional expenses, tools and subscriptions, travel and occupancy-related costs, and third-party loan fraud (net of related insurance recoveries).

2023 vs. 2022. Lending segment directly attributable expenses increased by $70.1 million, or 16%, for the year ended December 31, 2023 compared to 2022, primarily due to: (i) an increase in personal loan lead generation channels during 2023, (ii) an increase in allocated compensation and related benefits, which reflected increases in average compensation and average headcount in 2023, (ii) an increase in direct advertising primarily related to direct mail advertising, and (iv) an increase in other expenses, primarily related to loan marketing expenses and third-party loan fraud.

2022 vs. 2021. Lending segment directly attributable expenses increased by $78.8 million, or 22%, for the year ended December 31, 2022 compared to 2021, primarily due to: (i) an increase in direct advertising primarily related to direct mail, search engine and social network advertising, partially offset by declines in television advertisement; (ii) increasing utilization of lead generation channels primarily associated with increased personal loan origination volume in 2022; (iii) an increase in allocated compensation and related benefits, which primarily reflected increases in headcount allocated to the Lending segment and increased average compensation in 2022, partially offset by decreases in home loan commissions attributable to decreases in home loan originations; and (iv) a decrease in loan origination and servicing costs, which were largely attributable to decreases in home loan origination costs, partially offset by increases in personal loan origination costs, each of which was correlated with origination volumes.

Net interest income

Net interest income in our Technology Platform segment in 2023 relates to interest income earned on segment cash balances, which we began recording within the Technology Platform segment in the third quarter of 2023. Prior period amounts were determined to be immaterial, and presented within Corporate/Other.

Noninterest income

2023 vs. 2022. Noninterest income in our Technology Platform segment increased by $35.7 million, or 11%, for the year ended December 31, 2023 compared to 2022. The increase was primarily attributable to growth in technology products and solutions fees driven by revenue contribution from Technisys for the full 2023 period compared to ten months of 2022. Noninterest income also included $22.2 million and $7.6 million of intercompany revenue for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The increase in intercompany revenue was primarily attributable to increased usage of technology platform services during the 2023 periods by our Financial Services segment, as well as within our Technology Platform segment, as we continue to leverage synergies to enhance our product offerings.

2022 vs. 2021. Noninterest income in our Technology Platform segment increased by $120.2 million, or 62%, for the year ended December 31, 2022 compared to 2021, of which $69.2 million was attributable to revenue contribution from the Technisys Merger in 2022. The remaining increase was primarily attributable to growth in technology products and solutions fees driven by account growth and increased activity among our existing integrated technology solutions clients. Noninterest income included $7.6 million and $1.9 million of intercompany revenue for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

2023 vs. 2022. Technology Platform segment directly attributable expenses increased by $18.9 million, or 8%, for the year ended December 31, 2023 compared to 2022, primarily due to: (i) an increase in product fulfillment costs, primarily related to payment processing network association fees associated with increased activity on the platform, (ii) an increase in compensation and benefits expense, primarily related to bonus adjustments in the second quarter of 2023 and the inclusion of Technisys in our results for the full 2023 period, partially offset by a decrease in average headcount in 2023 corresponding with restructuring during the first quarter of 2023, and (iii) an increase in tools and subscriptions costs related to internal technology initiatives to support the growth of the platform, along with the inclusion of Technisys in our results for the full 2023 period.

__________________

(1)Net interest income and, thereby, total net revenue and contribution loss for our Financial Services segment reported for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022 reflect the implementation of an FTP framework, under which Financial Services segment net interest income reflects the difference between an FTP credit for the segment’s provision of deposits as a source of funding and an FTP charge for the segment’s use of funds related to credit cards. For the comparative period ended December 31, 2021, our Financial Services segment net interest income was nominal, as it did not have deposits and the credit card product was nascent. If we had applied our current FTP framework during the comparative period, the Financial Services segment net interest income would not have materially changed.

Net interest income

2023 vs. 2022. Net interest income in our Financial Services segment increased by $242.3 million, or 262%, for the year ended December 31, 2023 compared to 2022, which was primarily attributable to net interest income earned on our deposits, which includes interest income based on our FTP framework (which eliminates in consolidation) and interest expense to members. This net increase corresponds with the growth of deposits at SoFi Bank, as well as the impact of higher interest rates offered to members. In addition, net interest income earned on our credit cards increased, which includes interest income earned on outstanding balances as well as interest expense incurred under the FTP framework, and was primarily attributable to growth in total credit cards.

2022 vs. 2021. Net interest income in our Financial Services segment increased by $88.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2022 compared to 2021, which was primarily attributable to net interest income earned on our deposits, which includes interest income based on our FTP framework (which eliminates in consolidation) and interest expense to members, and corresponds with the level of deposits at SoFi Bank. In addition, net interest income earned on our credit cards increased primarily due to growth in the average balance.

Noninterest income

2023 vs. 2022. Noninterest income in our Financial Services segment increased by $26.6 million, or 35%, for the year ended December 31, 2023 compared to 2022, primarily due to an increase in interchange fees, which coincided with increased credit card and debit card transactions, as well as brokerage-related fees, which were primarily attributable to increased trading volume on our platform during 2023.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

2022 vs. 2021. Noninterest income in our Financial Services segment increased by $20.8 million, or 38%, for the year ended December 31, 2022 compared to 2021, primarily due to growth in referral fulfillment activity, as we continue to drive volume to our partners and an increase in interchange fees, which coincided with increased credit card and debit card transactions. The increase was partially offset by a decrease in brokerage-related fees, which was primarily attributable to decreased digital assets trading volume on our platform during 2022.

2023 vs. 2022. Financial Services directly attributable expenses increased by $69.7 million, or 19%, for the year ended December 31, 2023 compared to 2022, primarily due to: (i) an increase in product fulfillment costs, which included debit card fulfillment services, primarily related to our SoFi Money product, (ii) an increase in compensation and benefits expense, which reflected growth in the Financial Services segment that required additional staffing, as well as increased average compensation in 2023, (iii) an increase in direct member incentives utilized to drive adoption and usage of our Financial Services products, the most significant of which was our SoFi Money product, (iv) an increase in direct advertising costs primarily driven by an increase in online and digital advertising largely related to the promotion of our SoFi Money product, and (v) an increase related to utilization of lead generation channels, primarily related to our credit card and Relay products.

2022 vs. 2021. Financial Services directly attributable expenses increased by $174.1 million, or 90%, for the year ended December 31, 2022 compared to 2021, primarily due to: (i) an increase related to our provision for credit losses, which was primarily related to increases in the provision for credit cards due to higher average credit card balances combined with elevated credit card loss rates during 2022; (ii) an increase in compensation and benefits expense, which reflected our ongoing prioritization of growth in the Financial Services segment that required additional staffing, as well as increased average compensation in 2022; (iii) an increase in direct member incentives utilized to drive adoption and usage of our Financial Services products, the most significant of which was SoFi Checking and Savings; (iv) an increase related to utilization of lead generation channels during 2022, primarily related to SoFi Checking and Savings; and (v) an increase in direct advertising costs primarily driven by an increase in search engine and social network marketing primarily related to the continued promotion of SoFi Checking and Savings.

Corporate/Other Non-Reportable Segment

Non-segment operations are classified as Corporate/Other, which includes net revenues associated with corporate functions, non-recurring gains and losses from non-securitization investment activities and interest income and realized gains and losses associated with investments in AFS debt securities, all of which are not directly related to a reportable segment. For the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, net interest expense within Corporate/Other also reflects the financial impact of our capital management activities within the treasury function, which reflects the residual impact from FTP charges and FTP

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Liquidity

We strive to maintain access to diverse funding sources and ample liquidity to fund our operating requirements, to pursue strategic growth initiatives and to meet our legal and regulatory requirements. Our principal sources of liquidity are our cash and cash equivalents, including cash from operations, and investments in other highly liquid assets.

We maintain a CALM policy that outlines specific requirements relating to the oversight of SoFi Technologies, Inc. (and its subsidiaries) capital planning, financial planning and forecasting, liquidity risk management, contingency funding planning, interest rate risk management, cash management and financial operations, among other activities. Oversight of these activities is the responsibility of our ALCO. The ALCO is comprised of a cross-functional leadership team that is responsible for managing our use of capital, liquidity, sources and uses of funding, and sensitivities to various market risks, by identifying key risks and exposures, monitoring them appropriately, establishing tolerances and limits, and mitigating risks where appropriate, to ensure the Company has the ability to meet its obligations.

For risk retention facilities, we only include capacity amounts wherein we can pledge additional asset-backed bonds and residual investments as of the date indicated. As of December 31, 2023, warehouse facility maturity dates ranged from January 2024 through January 2032. See Note 9. Debt to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.

(3)As of December 31, 2023, the amount utilized under the revolving credit facility includes $13.1 million utilized to secure letters of credit. See Note 9. Debt to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.

(4)As of December 31, 2023, we had $131.7 million of investments in AFS debt securities and $54.8 million of loans pledged as collateral to the FHLB to secure undrawn borrowing capacity of $166.5 million, of which $27.2 million was utilized to secure letters of credit.

(5)Borrowing capacity with correspondent banks is unsecured.

We believe our existing liquidity will be sufficient to cover net losses, meet our existing working capital and capital expenditure needs, as well as our planned growth for at least the next 12 months.

Sources of Funding

Our primary funding sources include SoFi Bank deposits, warehouse funding, common and preferred equity capital, convertible debt, corporate revolving credit facility, securitizations, and other financings.

We offer deposit accounts (checking and savings accounts) to our members through SoFi Bank. We also source brokered and non-brokered wholesale deposits, which include certificates of deposit. As of December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, time deposit balances due in less than one year totaled $2.6 billion and $1.0 billion, respectively. As of December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the amount of uninsured deposits totaled $348.1 million and $615.9 million, respectively. In 2023, we began to provide our members with access to expanded FDIC insurance coverage through a network of participating banks in our Insured Deposit Program, which contributed to the decrease in uninsured deposits relative to year end. As of December 31, 2023, approximately 98% of our total deposits were insured.

The following table presents uninsured time deposits as of December 31, 2023 by remaining time to maturity:

Uses of Funding

Our primary uses of funds include loan originations, investments in our business, such as technology and product investments and sales and marketing initiatives, as well as the losses generated by our Financial Services segment on a year-to-date basis. Our capital expenditures have historically been less significant relative to our operating and financing cash flows, and we expect this trend to continue for the foreseeable future.

As of December 31, 2023, we had debt obligations, common stock and redeemable preferred stock outstanding.

Borrowings

Our borrowings primarily included our loan and risk retention warehouse facilities, asset-backed securitization debt, revolving credit facility and convertible notes. The amount of financing actually advanced on each individual loan under our loan warehouse facilities, as determined by agreed-upon advance rates, may be less than the stated advance rate depending, in part, on changes in underlying loan characteristics of the loans securing the financings. Each of our loan warehouse facilities allows the lender providing the funds to evaluate the market value of the loans that are serving as collateral for the borrowings or advances being made. The amount owed and outstanding on our loan warehouse facilities fluctuates significantly based on our origination volume, sales volume, the amount of time we strategically hold loans on our balance sheet, and the amount of loans being funded with our cash or member deposits.

In October 2021, we closed on the issuance of $1.2 billion aggregate principal amount of convertible senior notes (the “convertible notes”), which do not bear regular interest, will mature in October 2026 (unless earlier repurchased, redeemed or converted) and will be convertible by the noteholders beginning in April 2026 under certain circumstances. In December 2023, the Company entered into agreements to repurchase $88.0 million aggregate principal amount of the convertible notes, for which the Company issued 9,490,000 shares of common stock to settle. Following these repurchases, $1.1 billion aggregate principal amount of the convertible notes remain outstanding. Redemption events and conversion events (to the extent we elect to cash settle) could require a material use of cash at the time of the event. See Note 12. Debt to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information on the conversion, settlement and redemption terms of the convertible notes. Additionally, if special interest or additional interest is incurred on the convertible notes, it could require an additional use of cash.

In connection with the issuance of the convertible notes, we entered into privately negotiated Capped Call Transactions with certain financial institutions, which are expected to generally reduce the potential dilutive effect on the common stock upon any conversion of the notes and/or offset any cash payments we are required to make in excess of the principal amount of the converted notes, as the case may be. Refer to Note 13. Equity for additional information on the Capped Call Transactions. All of these transactions are expected to remain in effect notwithstanding the December 2023 repurchases.

The net proceeds from the October 2021 convertible debt issuance were $1.2 billion. We used $113.8 million of the net proceeds to fund the cost of entering into the Capped Call Transactions. We allotted the remainder of the net proceeds to pay related expenses and for general corporate purposes.

Covenants

We have various affirmative and negative financial covenants, as well as non-financial covenants, related to our warehouse debt and revolving credit facility, as well as our Series 1 Redeemable Preferred Stock. Additionally, we have compliance requirements associated with our convertible notes, and certain provisions of the arrangement could change in the event of a “Make-Whole Fundamental Change”, as defined in the indenture governing such convertible notes.

The availability of funds under our warehouse facilities and revolving credit facility is subject to, among other conditions, our continued compliance with the covenants. These financial covenants include, but are not limited to, maintaining: (i) a certain minimum tangible net worth, (ii) minimum unrestricted cash and cash equivalents, (iii) a maximum leverage ratio of total debt to tangible net worth, and (iv) minimum risk-based capital and leverage ratios. A breach of these covenants can result in an event of default under these facilities and allows the lenders to pursue certain remedies. See Note 12. Debt to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information. Our subsidiaries are restricted in the amount that can be distributed to SoFi only to the extent that such distributions would cause the financial covenants to not be met.

In addition, pursuant to our amended and restated agreement related to our Series 1 Redeemable Preferred Stock, we are subject to the following financial covenants:

•Tangible net worth to total debt ratio requirement, which excludes our warehouse, risk retention and securitization related debt;

•Tangible net worth to Series 1 Redeemable Preferred Stock ratio requirement; and

•Minimum excess equity requirements, where the measure of equity includes permanent equity and SoFi Technologies Redeemable Preferred Stock (exclusive of Series 1 Redeemable Preferred Stock), as applicable.

We were in compliance with all covenants as of December 31, 2023.

Capital Management

SoFi Technologies, a bank holding company, and SoFi Bank, a nationally chartered association, are required to comply with regulatory capital rules issued by the Federal Reserve and other U.S. banking regulators, including the OCC and FDIC. From time to time, we may contribute capital to SoFi Bank. We are required to manage our capital position to maintain sufficient capital to satisfy these regulatory rules and support our business activities, including the requirement to maintain minimum regulatory capital ratios in accordance with the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision standardized approach for U.S. banking organizations (U.S. Basel III). If the Federal Reserve finds that we are not “well-capitalized” or “well-managed”, we would be required to take remedial action, which may contain additional limitations or conditions relating to our activities.

These requirements establish required minimum ratios for CET1 risk-based capital, Tier 1 risk-based capital, total risk-based capital and a Tier 1 leverage ratio; set risk-weighting for assets and certain other items for purposes of the risk-based capital ratios; and define what qualifies as capital for purposes of meeting the capital requirements.

As of December 31, 2023, our regulatory capital ratios exceeded the thresholds required to be regarded as a well-capitalized institution, and meet all capital adequacy requirements to which we are subject. There have been no events or conditions since December 31, 2023 that management believes would change the categorization. See Note 21. Regulatory Capital to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for the risk- and leverage-based capital ratios and amounts for SoFi Bank and SoFi Technologies.

__________________

(1)The amounts reported exclude future interest expense, other than interest accrued as of December 31, 2023, as it is difficult to predict the amount of interest we will incur due to the variability of the utilization of our warehouse debt and timing of collateral cash flows. As such, only principal commitments and the aforementioned accrued interest are included herein. See Note 12. Debt to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information on our warehouse debt.

(2)Includes principal balance and variable interest on our revolving credit facility. The estimated interest payments assume that our borrowings under the revolving credit facility (i) remain unchanged, (ii) are held to maturity, and (iii) incur interest at the rate for standard withdrawals in effect as of December 31, 2023 through its maturity. See Note 12. Debt to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information on our revolving credit facility.

(3)The convertible notes will mature on October 15, 2026, unless earlier repurchased, redeemed or converted. See “Borrowings” for additional information on these provisions.

(4)See Note 18. Commitments, Guarantees, Concentrations and Contingencies to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information on these financial commitments.

(5)Contractual obligations exclude residual interests classified as debt that result from transfers of assets that are accounted for as secured financings. Similarly, contractual obligations exclude securitization debt, as the maturity of the notes issued by the various trusts occurs upon either the maturity of the loan collateral or full payment of the loan collateral held in the trusts, the timing of which cannot be reasonably estimated. Additionally, our own liquidity resources are not required to make any contractual payments on these borrowings, except in limited instances associated with our guarantee arrangements. Our maturity date represents the legal maturity of the last class of maturing notes. See Note 18. Commitments, Guarantees, Concentrations and Contingencies to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion of our guarantees. Finally, contractual obligations exclude the impact of uncertain tax positions, as we are not able to reasonably estimate the timing of such future cash flows. See Note 17. Income Taxes to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information on income taxes and unrecognized tax benefits.

Guarantees

We may require liquidity resources associated with our guarantee arrangements. As a component of our loan sale agreements, we make certain representations to third parties that purchased our previously held loans. We have a three-year obligation to GSEs on loans that we sell to GSEs, to repurchase any originated loans that do not meet certain GSE guidelines,

117

SoFi Technologies, Inc.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

and we are required to pay the full initial purchase price back to the GSEs. In addition, we make standard representations and warranties related to personal, student and home loan transfers, as well as limited credit-related repurchase guarantees on certain such transfers. If realized, any of the repurchases would require the use of cash. See Note 18. Commitments, Guarantees, Concentrations and Contingencies to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for further information on these and other guarantee obligations. We believe we have adequate liquidity to meet these expected obligations.

Factors Affecting Liquidity

We are currently dependent on the success of our lending business. The primary drivers of operating cash flows related to our Lending segment are origination volume, the holding period of our loans, loan sale execution and the timing of loan repayments. Our ability to access whole loan buyers, to sell our loans on favorable terms, to maintain adequate warehouse capacity at favorable terms, to access new deposits and grow existing deposits and to strategically manage our continuing financial interest in securitization-related transfers is critical to our growth strategy and our ability to have adequate liquidity to fund our balance sheet. Our ability to attract and maintain deposits can be impacted by, among other things, general economic conditions, the condition of the banking sector (such as bank failures or exposure to credit, market, operational, legal and reputational risks), competition from other financial services firms, idiosyncratic events and the interest rates we offer, which can impact our liquidity from deposits. Through 2023, we continued to have strong deposit contribution. During 2023, we also provided our members with access to expanded FDIC insurance coverage through a network of participating banks in our Insured Deposit Program.

There is no guarantee that we will be able to execute on our strategy as it relates to the timing and pricing of securitization-related transfers. Therefore, we may hold securitization interests for longer than planned or be forced to liquidate at suboptimal prices. Securitization transfers are also negatively impacted during recessionary periods, wherein purchasers may be more risk averse.

Further, future uncertainties around the demand for our personal loans, home loans and around the student loan refinance market in general, including as a result of worsening macroeconomic conditions or continued turmoil in the banking and financial services sectors, should be considered when assessing our future liquidity and solvency prospects. In the future, our loan origination volume and our resulting loan balances, and any positive cash flows thereof, could also be lower based on strategic decisions to tighten our credit standards.

In addition to our ability to pledge unencumbered loans against available warehouse capacity, we have relationships with whole loan buyers who have historically demonstrated strong demand for our loans. Securitization markets can also generate additional liquidity; however, financing through the securitization market could result in worse execution as compared to whole loans sales depending on market conditions and, in certain cases, we are required to maintain a minimum investment due to securitization risk retention rules.

Additionally, our securitization transactions require us to maintain a continuing financial interest in the form of securitization investments when we deconsolidate the SPE or in consolidation of the SPE when we have a significant financial interest. In either instance, the continuing financial interest requires us to maintain capital in the SPE that would otherwise be available to us if we had sold loans through a different channel. As it relates to our securitization debt, the maturity of the notes issued by the various trusts occurs upon either the maturity of the loan collateral or full payment of the loan collateral held in the trusts, the timing of which cannot be reasonably estimated. Our own liquidity resources are not required to make any contractual payments on our securitization borrowings.

Our cash flows from operations have also historically been impacted by material net losses. While we achieved net income profitability for the first time during the fourth quarter of 2023, changing business, macroeconomic or other conditions could potentially lead us, in the future, to raise additional capital in the form of equity or debt, which may not be at favorable terms when compared to previous financing transactions.

Our long-term liquidity strategy includes continuing to grow our deposit base, maintaining adequate warehouse capacity, maintaining corporate debt and other sources of financing, as well as effectively managing the capital raised through debt and equity transactions. Although our goal is to increase our cash flow from operations, there can be no assurance that our future operating plans will lead to improved operating cash flows.

The FDIA and FDIC regulations generally limit the ability of an insured depository institution to accept, renew or roll over any brokered deposit unless the institution’s capital category is “well capitalized” or, with the FDIC’s approval, “adequately capitalized.” See Part I, Item 1. “Government Supervision and Regulation—Brokered Deposits” for additional information. As of December 31, 2023, our regulatory capital ratios exceeded the thresholds required to be regarded as a well-capitalized institution, and meet all capital adequacy requirements to which we are subject.

Cash Flows from Operating Activities

For the year ended December 31, 2023, net cash used in operating activities of $7.2 billion stemmed from a net loss of $300.7 million and an unfavorable change in our operating assets net of operating liabilities of $7.6 billion, partially offset by a positive adjustment for non-cash items of $706.8 million. The change in operating assets net of operating liabilities was primarily a result of our loan origination and sales activities. We originated loans of $17.4 billion during the year and also purchased loans of $198.7 million. These cash uses were partially offset by principal payments on loans of $7.2 billion and proceeds from loan sales of $2.1 billion.

For the year ended December 31, 2022, net cash used in operating activities of $7.3 billion stemmed from a net loss of $320.4 million and an unfavorable change in our operating assets net of operating liabilities of $7.5 billion, partially offset by a positive adjustment for non-cash items of $560.1 million. The change in operating assets net of operating liabilities was primarily a result of our loan origination and sales activities. We originated loans of $13.0 billion during the year and also purchased loans of $2.5 billion. These cash uses were largely offset by principal payments on loans of $3.1 billion and proceeds from loan sales of $4.9 billion.

For the year ended December 31, 2021, net cash used in operating activities of $1.4 billion stemmed from a net loss of $483.9 million and an unfavorable change in our operating assets net of operating liabilities of $1.3 billion, partially offset by a positive adjustment for non-cash items of $479.0 million. The change in operating assets net of operating liabilities was primarily a result of our loan origination and sales activities. We originated loans of $13.0 billion during the year and also purchased loans of $451.0 million. These cash uses were offset by principal payments on loans of $2.2 billion and proceeds from loan sales of $10.0 billion.

Cash Flows from Investing Activities

For the year ended December 31, 2023, net cash used in investing activities of $1.9 billion was primarily attributable to $1.4 billion related to loan activities, primarily driven by student loans, senior secured loans and credit cards, net purchases of $381.0 million related to our investments in AFS debt securities, $111.4 million for purchases of property, equipment and software, which primarily included internally-developed software and purchased software, $72.3 million related to business combinations, net of cash acquired, which includes our acquisition of Wyndham and settlements of vested employee performance awards associated with the Technisys Merger, and $66.6 million related to purchases of non-securitization investments, primarily FRB stock and FHLB stock. These uses were partially offset by proceeds of $108.3 million from our securitization investments.

For the year ended December 31, 2022, net cash used in investing activities of $106.3 million was primarily attributable to proceeds of $118.8 million from our securitization investments and the aggregate net cash acquired from the Technisys Merger and Bank Merger of $58.5 million. These sources were more than offset by net cash uses of $173.7 million related to loan activities, primarily driven by credit cards, $93.2 million for purchases of property, equipment and software, which primarily included internally-developed software and purchased software, as well as $10.5 million related to costs incurred in the development and enhancement of software to be sold, leased or marketed.

For the year ended December 31, 2021, net cash provided by investing activities of $110.2 million was primarily attributable to proceeds of $107.5 million from the call on our Apex equity method investment and $16.7 million from repayment of the outstanding principal balance on its related party notes, as well as proceeds of $247.1 million from our securitization investments. These cash proceeds were partially offset by $246.4 million of investments made in AFS debt securities, reduced by proceeds of $57.5 million from sales and maturities of these investments. Additionally, we made an equity method investment of $20.0 million during the third quarter of 2021. Lastly, we used cash of $52.3 million for purchases of property, equipment and software, which primarily included internally-developed software, purchased software, and furniture and fixtures.

Cash Flows from Financing Activities

For the year ended December 31, 2023, net cash provided by financing activities of $10.9 billion was primarily attributable to net cash sources from our SoFi Bank deposits of $11.2 billion. This was partially offset by debt repayments of $799.9 million which exceeded our proceeds from debt financing activity of $520.5 million, which were primarily related to our warehouse facilities. Our payments of debt issuance costs were in the normal course of business and reflective of our recurring debt warehouse facility activity, which involves securing new warehouse facilities and extending existing warehouse facilities.

For the year ended December 31, 2022, net cash provided by financing activities of $8.4 billion was primarily attributable to net cash sources from our SoFi Bank deposits of $7.2 billion. Additionally, our proceeds from debt financing activities of $1.9 billion exceeded our debt repayments of $516.4 million, which were primarily related to our warehouse facilities. Our payments of debt issuance costs were in the normal course of business and reflective of our recurring debt warehouse facility activity, which involves securing new warehouse facilities and extending existing warehouse facilities. Finally, we paid redeemable preferred stock dividends of $40.4 million and taxes related to RSU vesting of $9.0 million.

For the year ended December 31, 2021, net cash provided by financing activities was $685.0 million. We received proceeds from the Business Combination and PIPE Investment of $2.0 billion, and paid costs directly related to the Business Combination and PIPE Investment of $27.0 million. We received $1.2 billion of proceeds from debt financing activities related to our lending activities and issuance of our convertible notes. These debt proceeds were more than offset by $0.9 billion of debt repayments, of which $9.5 billion were related to our warehouse facilities and $250 million were related to repayment of the seller note. We also had capped call purchases of $113.8 million in connection with the issuance of our convertible notes. Our payments of debt issuance costs were in the normal course of business and reflective of our recurring debt warehouse facility activity. We also received proceeds from warrant exercises of $95.0 million. We paid taxes related to RSU vesting of $42.6 million, as well as redeemable preferred stock dividends of $40.4 million. We also received $25.2 million of proceeds from common stock option exercises. Finally, we paid $282.9 million to repurchase redeemable common and preferred stock.

Other Arrangements

We enter into arrangements in which we originate loans, establish an SPE and transfer loans to the SPE, which has historically served as an important source of liquidity. We also retain the servicing rights of the underlying loans and hold additional interests in the SPE. When an SPE is determined not to be a VIE or when an SPE is determined to be a VIE but we are not the primary beneficiary, the SPE is not consolidated. In addition, a significant change to the pertinent rights of other parties or our pertinent rights, or a significant change to the ranges of possible financial performance outcomes used in our assessment of the variability of cash flows due to us, could impact the determination of whether or not a VIE is consolidated. VIE consolidation and deconsolidation may lead to increased volatility in our financial results and impact period-over-period comparability. See Note 1. Organization, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and New Accounting Standards to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for our VIE consolidation policy.

Historically, we have established personal loan trusts and student loan trusts that were created and designed to transfer credit and interest rate risk associated with the underlying loans through the issuance of collateralized notes and residual certificates. We hold a variable interest in the trusts through our ownership of collateralized notes in the form of asset-backed bonds and residual certificates. The residual certificates absorb variability and represent the equity ownership interest in the equity portion of the personal loan and student loan trusts.

We are also the servicer for all trusts in which we hold a financial interest. Although we have the power as servicer to perform the activities that most impact the economic performance of the VIE, we do not hold a significant financial interest in the trusts and, therefore, we are not the primary beneficiary. Further, we do not provide financial support beyond our initial equity investment, and our maximum exposure to loss as a result of our involvement with nonconsolidated VIEs is limited to our investment. For a more detailed discussion of nonconsolidated VIEs, including related activity during the year, see Note 7. Securitization and Variable Interest Entities to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

Financial Condition Summary

Changes in the composition and balance of our assets and liabilities as of December 31, 2023 compared to December 31, 2022 were principally attributed to the following:

•an increase of $1.8 billion in cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents. See “Cash Flow and Liquidity Analysis” for further discussion of our cash flow activity;

•an increase in loans of $9.1 billion, which was primarily related to increased personal and student loan originations and longer loan holding periods;

120

SoFi Technologies, Inc.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

•an increase in deposits of $11.3 billion, which was primarily related to increased savings deposits from members and increased broker deposits; and

•an increase of $180.6 million in gross warehouse and risk retention facility debt to support our originations during the current period, which reflected the net impact of $12.3 billion of cash borrowings and $12.1 billion of cash repayments.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. In preparing our consolidated financial statements, we make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts of assets and liabilities, as well as revenues and expenses. We base our assumptions, judgments and estimates on historical experience and various other factors that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. The results involve judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results could differ materially from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. We regularly evaluate our estimates, assumptions and judgments, particularly those that include the most difficult, subjective or complex judgments and are often about matters that are inherently uncertain. See Note 1. Organization, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and New Accounting Standards to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for a summary of our significant accounting policies. The most significant judgments, estimates and assumptions relate to the critical accounting policies, which are discussed in detail below. We evaluate our critical accounting policies and estimates on an ongoing basis and update them as necessary based on changes in market conditions or factors specific to us.

Fair Value

Fair value is defined as the 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 use a three-level fair value hierarchy to classify and disclose all assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis in periods subsequent to their initial measurement. The hierarchy requires us to use observable inputs when available and to minimize the use of unobservable inputs when determining fair value. The three levels are defined as follows:

•Level 1 — Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities, accessible by us at the measurement date.

•Level 2 — Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, or quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, or observable inputs other than quoted prices.

•Level 3 — Unobservable inputs for assets or liabilities for which there is little or no market data, which requires us to develop our own assumptions. These unobservable assumptions reflect estimates of inputs that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. Valuation techniques include the use of option pricing models, discounted cash flow models, or similar techniques, which incorporate management’s own estimates of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.

A financial instrument’s categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Instruments are categorized in Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy based on the significance of unobservable factors in the overall fair value measurement. Our involvement with VIEs and origination of personal loans, student loans and home loans results in Level 2 and Level 3 assumptions having a material impact on our consolidated financial statements, as further discussed below. We utilize third-party valuation specialists to perform a valuation of these Level 2 and Level 3 financial instruments on a monthly basis with quarterly oversight by a Valuation Working Group established by the Company that comprises leaders across finance, capital markets and accounting.

Loans

We elected the fair value option to measure our personal loans and student loans, as we believe that fair value best reflects the expected economic performance of the loans. These loans do not trade in an active market with readily observable prices, and are classified as Level 3 because the valuations utilize significant unobservable inputs.

We determine the fair value of our loans using a DCF calculation, which is a form of the income approach, while also considering market data as it becomes available. In applying the DCF methodology, we estimate the future cash flows of each loan portfolio using key loan metrics, such as term, vintage, coupon rate, coupon type and current balance, among others. The significant assumptions used in the valuation model include conditional prepayment rate, annual default rate and discount rate. The conditional prepayment rate represents the monthly annualized proportion of the principal of a pool of loans that is assumed to be paid off prematurely in each period. The annual default rate represents the annualized rate of borrowers who do

121

SoFi Technologies, Inc.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

not make loan payments on time. The conditional prepayment and annual default rate assumptions are determined using company-specific historical loan performance curves. The discount rate represents the weighted average rate at which the expected cash flows are discounted to arrive at the net present value of the loans. The discount rate is determined based on company-specific factors and market observations, including underlying benchmark rates, our weighted average coupon rate and expected duration of the assets, the last of which is also impacted by expected prepayment rates. We also consider the volume and terms of recent whole loan sales and securitization market pricing factors, as applicable, as indicators of loan fair values.

Securitizations

Loans in consolidated VIEs remain on our consolidated balance sheet and are measured at fair value using Level 3 inputs in a manner consistent with our non-securitization loans. Moreover, third-party residual claims on these loans are measured at fair value on a recurring basis and are presented as residual interests classified as debt in our consolidated balance sheet. We classify the residual interests classified as debt as Level 3 due to the reliance on significant unobservable valuation inputs. In Company-sponsored securitization transactions that meet the applicable criteria to be accounted for as a sale, we retain certain asset-backed bonds, which are measured at fair value on a recurring basis using Level 2 inputs, and residual investments, which are measured at fair value on a recurring basis using Level 3 inputs. These risk retention interests in nonconsolidated VIEs are referred to as securitization investments.

We determine the fair value of our residual interests classified as debt and our securitization investments using a DCF calculation, while also considering market data as it becomes available. In applying the DCF methodology, we estimate the future collateral cash flows using key securitization portfolio metrics, such as contractual payments and delinquency profile, among others. The significant assumptions used in the valuation model include conditional prepayment rate, annual default rate and discount rate. The conditional prepayment and annual default rate assumptions are determined using observed prepayment and default performance. The discount rate is determined based on market observations, such as secondary trading information, newly closed deals, benchmark rates and spread index, among others.

See “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk” for discussion of the sensitivity of our financial instruments measured at fair value to changes in various market risks.

Business Combinations

We account for acquisitions of entities or asset groups that qualify as businesses using the acquisition method of accounting. Purchase consideration is allocated to the tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on the estimated fair values as of the acquisition date, and which are typically determined in consultation with an independent appraiser. The determination of fair value requires management to make estimates about discount rates, future expected cash flows, market conditions and other future events that are highly subjective in nature. The judgments made in the determination of the estimated fair value assigned to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, as well as the estimated useful life of each asset and the duration of each liability, could significantly impact the consolidated financial statements in periods after the acquisition, such as through depreciation and amortization expense.

Management uses significant judgment to determine the fair value of intangible assets. For developed technology, management applies the Multi-Period Excess Earnings Method, which is a form of the income approach, for which the significant assumptions generally include expected earnings attributable to the asset (including an assumed technology migration curve), contributory asset charges and an assumed discount rate. For customer-related intangibles, management applies the With and Without Method, which is a form of the income approach, for which the significant assumptions generally include estimated annual revenues and net cash flows (including revenue ramp-up periods and customer attrition rates), and an assumed discount rate. For trade names, trademark and domain names, management applies the Relief from Royalty Method, which is a form of the income approach, for which the significant assumptions generally include expected earnings attributable to the asset, the probability of use of the asset, the royalty rate and an assumed discount rate. The assumed discount rates across the valuation methods reflect the risk of the asset relative to the overall risk of the acquired business. Definite-lived intangible assets are straight-line amortized over their useful lives and reviewed for impairment annually and whenever events or circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such assets may not be recoverable. During the year ended December 31, 2023, we did not recognize any impairment of definite-lived intangible assets.

The excess of the total purchase consideration over the fair value of the identified net assets acquired is recognized as goodwill. Acquisition-related costs are expensed as incurred. The results of operations for each acquisition are included in our consolidated financial results beginning on the respective acquisition date.

122

SoFi Technologies, Inc.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

During the measurement period, which may be up to one year from the acquisition date, we may record adjustments to the allocation of purchase consideration and to the fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed to the extent that additional information becomes available. After this period, any subsequent adjustments are recorded in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.

Goodwill

Goodwill represents the fair value of an acquired business in excess of the fair value of the identified net assets acquired. As of December 31, 2023, we had goodwill of $1.4 billion, of which $17.7 million was recognized during the year in connection with business combinations.

Goodwill is tested for impairment at the reporting unit level at least annually, with a recurring testing date of October 1, or whenever indicators of impairment exist. Impairment of goodwill is the condition that exists when the carrying amount of a reporting unit that includes goodwill exceeds its fair value. We may assess goodwill for impairment initially based on qualitative considerations, referred to as “step zero”, to determine whether conditions exist that indicate that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. If management concludes, based on its assessment of relevant events, facts and circumstances that it is more likely than not that a reporting unit’s carrying value is greater than its fair value, then a quantitative analysis, referred to as step one, will be performed to determine if there is any impairment. We may alternatively elect to initially perform a quantitative assessment and bypass the qualitative assessment. Quantitative goodwill impairment assessments require a significant amount of management judgment, and a meaningful change in the forecasted future revenues and cash flows, the discount rate, and the determination of market multiples used in testing goodwill for impairment could result in a material impact on the Company’s results of operations and financial position.

A goodwill impairment loss is recognized for the amount that the carrying amount of a reporting unit, including goodwill, exceeds its fair value, limited to the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. Therefore, if the fair value of a reporting unit exceeds its carrying amount, goodwill of the reporting unit is not impaired. Our reporting units for our goodwill impairment analysis represent components of our business at one level below our operating segments.

An interim test is performed when events or circumstances occur that may indicate that it is more likely than not that the fair value of any reporting unit may be less than its carrying value. During the third quarter of 2023, the Technology Platform segment continued to experience slower growth rates than expected at the time of acquisition due to: (i) the uncertain macroeconomic environment, which has continued to impact customer spend volume, and (ii) continued longer sales cycles as a result of our shift in strategy to focus on diversified durable growth driven by potential new partners with scaled customer bases and interest in multiple Technology Platform products. These factors constituted a triggering event for goodwill testing purposes. As a result, we performed an interim quantitative test on the Galileo and Technisys reporting units to determine the existence and magnitude of potential goodwill impairment. We determined it was not necessary to perform an interim goodwill impairment test for our other reporting units.

During the third quarter of 2023, management calculated the fair value amount of the Galileo and Technisys reporting units using a combination of a DCF calculation, which is a form of the income approach, and a market multiples calculation, which is a form of the market approach. The discount rates used for the Galileo and Technisys reporting units in our interim quantitative assessment were 14.0% and 23.5%, respectively. The higher discount rate at Technisys was primarily driven by macroeconomic factors in Latin America, specifically the highly inflationary economic environment in Argentina. Additionally, management applied a terminal year long-term growth rate of 3.5% to both reporting units, consistent with previous quantitative assessments. As a result of this assessment, the fair value of the Galileo and Technisys reporting units were determined to be below their carrying values by 9.9% and 14.8%, respectively, resulting in management recognizing non-cash goodwill impairment charges of $124.5 million and $122.7 million for the Galileo and Technisys reporting units, respectively. If the discount rate applied to the estimated cash flows was increased or decreased by 50 basis points, the fair value of the Galileo and Technisys reporting units would decrease or increase by 6% and 4%, respectively. Similarly, if the long-term growth rate was increased or decreased by 50 basis points, the fair value of the Galileo and Technisys reporting units would increase or decrease by approximately 3% and 1%, respectively.

In performing the qualitative assessments of each reporting unit as of October 1, 2023, the Company evaluated events and circumstances since the last quantitative goodwill assessments to determine if it was not more likely than not that our goodwill was not impaired as of our annual impairment testing date. The factors evaluated included an assessment of macroeconomic conditions, industry and market conditions, key financial metrics, overall financial performance of the reporting unit, or any other specific events or changes. After assessing the relevant events and circumstances, we concluded it is not more-likely-than-not that the fair value of the reporting unit is below its carrying value as of our annual impairment assessment date.

We monitored events and circumstances during the fourth quarter of 2023, concluding that it was not more-likely-than-not that the fair value of a reporting unit is below its respective carrying value as of December 31, 2023.

Management cannot predict the occurrence of certain events or changes in circumstances that might adversely affect the value of goodwill. We continue to monitor the aforementioned conditions, general macroeconomic deterioration, including the interest rate environment, inflationary pressures, and the potential for a prolonged economic downturn or recession, as well as other factors, including those listed in "Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements" and "Risk Factors" in Part I, Item 1A of this Annual Report. Further persistence of the aforementioned conditions and these other factors could result in additional impairment charges in future periods.

Business Overview

We are a member-centric, one-stop shop for financial services that allows members to borrow, save, spend, invest and protect their money. We refer to our customers as “members”, as defined under “Key Business Metrics”. Our mission is to help our members achieve financial independence in order to realize their ambitions. We were founded in 2011 and have developed a suite of financial products that offers the speed, selection, content and convenience that only an integrated digital platform can provide. Everything we do today is geared toward helping our members “Get Your Money Right” and we strive to innovate and build ways for our members to achieve this goal.

In order to help achieve our mission, we offer personal loans, student loans and home loans and related servicing. We also offer a variety of financial services products, such as SoFi Checking and Savings, SoFi Credit Card, SoFi Invest and SoFi Relay, that provide more daily interactions with our members, and we offer products and capabilities, such as SoFi At Work, that are designed to appeal to enterprises. We continued to expand our platform capabilities for enterprises through: (i) our acquisition of Galileo in 2020, which provides technology platform services to financial and non-financial institutions and which has allowed us to vertically integrate across more of our financial services, and (ii) the Technisys Merger in the first quarter of 2022, through which we expanded our technology platform services to include a cloud-native, customizable, extensible core technology as well as access to a broader international market. We believe that these expansions will deepen our participation in the entire technology ecosystem powering digital financial services.

See Item 1. “Business—Our Reportable Segments” for a discussion of our segments and their corresponding products. The discussion below focuses on the ways in which our key products and services within each reportable segment generate revenues and/or incur expenses for the Company.

Business Highlights

We achieved record results for our company for the year ended December 31, 2022, including record total net revenue of $1.6 billion, representing an increase of 60% over total net revenue in 2021. We realized strong momentum in member and product growth and cross-buy adds, reflecting the benefits of our broad product suite and Financial Services Productivity Loop strategy. We added approximately 1.8 million new members during 2022, with over 5.2 million total members as of December 31, 2022, a 51% year-over-year increase. We also added approximately 2.7 million new products, with nearly 7.9 million total products as of December 31, 2022, a 53% year-over-year increase.

Lending segment contribution profit of $664.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2022, at a margin of 58%, increased 66% over 2021, which had a contribution margin of 54%. Additionally, average net interest margin of 5.40% in 2022 was higher compared to 3.95% in 2021. Growth in net interest income was driven by an increase in both average interest-earning assets and average yields, slightly offset by an increase in the cost of interest-bearing liabilities. Origination volume increased 3% year over year, primarily driven by demand for personal loans and despite continued headwinds in the student and home loan businesses.

Technology Platform segment contribution profit of $76.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2022 increased 19% over 2021, primarily driven by a 31% increase in total accounts at Galileo as well as contribution from the addition of Technisys, as discussed below.

Within Financial Services, larger contribution loss of $(199.4) million in 2022 compared to $(134.9) million in 2021 was primarily driven by continued growth in credit loss reserves related to SoFi Credit Card. Financial Services segment total net revenue of $167.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2022 increased 189% over 2021, primarily driven by 60% year-

over-year product growth. We achieved strong growth in deposits, ending the year with $7.3 billion of deposits, allowing us to further diversify our sources of funding.

We closed our acquisitions of Golden Pacific (through which we obtained a national bank charter) and Technisys during 2022. Our bank charter is enabling new flexibility that we expect to be even more valuable in light of the ongoing challenging macroeconomic environment. Deposits had strong contribution from direct deposit members and a high quality median FICO score. Our deposit funding also increases our flexibility to capture additional net interest margin and optimize returns. Our Tier 1 capital ratio, as calculated under the Basel III Standardized Approach, was 20.3% as of December 31, 2022. See Note 21 to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information. Our acquisition of Technisys allows us to vertically integrate with Galileo and to expand our technology platform services to a broader international market.

Lending Segment

Net interest income, which we define as the difference between the earned interest income and interest expense to finance loans, is a key component of the profitability of our Lending segment. In the first quarter of 2022, we implemented a funds transfer pricing (“FTP”) framework to attribute net interest income to our business segments based on their usage and/or provision of funding, under which Lending segment net interest income represents the difference between interest income earned on our loans and an FTP charge for the segment’s use of funds to originate loans, which can fluctuate based on changes in interest rates, funding curves, the composition of our balance sheet and the availability of capital. See Note 20 to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information on the FTP framework.

Technology Platform Segment

We earn technology products and solutions fees for providing an integrated platform as a service for financial and non-financial institutions. Many of our Technology Platform segment contracts are multi-year contracts. In certain of our contracts, we provide for a variety of integrated platform services, which vary by client and are either non-cancellable or cancellable with a substantive payment. Pricing structures under these contracts are typically volume-based, or a combination of activity and volume-based, and payment terms are predominantly monthly in arrears. Some of these contracts contain minimum monthly payments with agreed upon monthly service levels and may contain penalties if service levels are not met. We also earn subscription and service fees for providing software licenses and associated services, including implementation and maintenance. We charge a recurring subscription fee for the software license and related maintenance services. Other software-related services are billed on a periodic basis as the services are provided. Certain arrangements for software and related services contain a provision for a fixed upfront payment.

Financial Services Segment

We earn revenues in connection with our Financial Services segment primarily in the following ways:

•Net interest income: Net interest income is a key component of the profitability of our Financial Services segment as it relates to our SoFi Checking and Savings and SoFi Credit Card products. Net interest income on SoFi Checking and Savings is based on interest income determined using our FTP framework, which was implemented in the first quarter of 2022, net of interest expense based on the interest rate offered to our members on their deposits. Net interest income on SoFi Credit Card is based on the contractual interest included in credit card agreements, net of interest expense as determined using the FTP framework. See Note 20 to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information on the FTP framework.

•Referral fees: Through strategic partnerships, we earn a specified referral fee in connection with referral activity we facilitate through our platform. Referral fees are paid to us by third-party partners that offer services to end users who do not use one of our product offerings, but who were referred to the partners through our platform. Beginning in the third quarter of 2021, we entered into a referral arrangement whereby we earn referral fulfillment fees for providing pre-qualified borrower referrals to a third-party partner who separately contracts with a loan originator. Our referral fee is calculated as either a fixed price per successful referral or a percentage of the transaction volume between the enterprise partners and referred consumers.

•Brokerage fees: We earn brokerage fees primarily from our share lending and payment for order flow arrangements related to our SoFi Invest product, and digital assets activity. In our share lending arrangements and payment for order flow arrangements, we benefit through a negotiated multi-year revenue sharing arrangement, since our members' brokerage activity drives the share lending and payment for order flow volume. In our digital assets arrangements, our fee is calculated as a negotiated percentage of the transaction volume.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

•Interchange fees: We earn interchange fees from our SoFi-branded debit cards and our SoFi Credit Card product, which are reduced by fees payable to card associations and our fulfillment partners. These fees are remitted by merchants and represent a percentage of the underlying transaction value processed through a payment network. We arrange for performance by a card association and the bank issuer to enable certain aspects of the SoFi-branded transaction card process. We enter into contracts with both parties that establish the shared economics of SoFi-branded transaction cards. As we continue to transition our cash management accounts to SoFi Checking and Savings accounts held at SoFi Bank, we expect to decrease certain fees payable to third parties over time.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Our management and Board of Directors use adjusted net revenue and adjusted EBITDA, which are non-GAAP financial measures, to evaluate our operating performance, formulate business plans, help better assess our overall liquidity position and make strategic decisions, including those relating to operating expenses and the allocation of internal resources. Accordingly, we believe that adjusted net revenue and adjusted EBITDA provide useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating our operating results in the same manner as our management and Board of Directors.

Adjusted Net Revenue

Adjusted net revenue is defined as total net revenue, adjusted to exclude the fair value changes in servicing rights and residual interests classified as debt due to valuation inputs and assumptions changes, which relate only to our Lending segment. We adjust total net revenue to exclude these items, as they are non-cash charges that are not realized during the period, and therefore positive or negative changes do not impact the cash available to fund our operations. This measure helps provide our management with an understanding of the net revenue available to finance our operations and helps management better decide on the proper expenses to authorize for each of our operating segments, to ultimately help achieve target contribution profit margins. Therefore, the measure of adjusted net revenue serves as both the starting point for how we think about the liquidity generated from our operations and also the starting point for our annual financial planning, the latter of which focuses on the cash we expect to generate from our operating segments to help fund the current year’s strategic objectives. Adjusted net revenue has limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, the analysis of other GAAP financial measures, such as total net revenue. The primary limitation of adjusted net revenue is its lack of comparability to other companies that do not utilize this measure or that use a similar measure that is defined in a different manner.

(1)Reflects changes in fair value inputs and assumptions on servicing rights, including conditional prepayment, default rates and discount rates. These assumptions are highly sensitive to market interest rate changes and are not indicative of our performance or results of operations. Moreover, these non-cash charges are unrealized during the period and, therefore, have no impact on our cash flows from operations. As such, these positive and negative changes are adjusted out of total net revenue to provide management and financial users with better visibility into the net revenue available to finance our operations and our overall performance.

(2)Reflects changes in fair value inputs and assumptions on residual interests classified as debt, including conditional prepayment, default rates and discount rates. When third parties finance our consolidated securitization variable interest entities (“VIEs”) by purchasing residual interests, we receive proceeds at the time of the closing of the securitization and, thereafter, pass along contractual cash flows to the residual interest owner. These residual debt obligations are measured at fair value on a recurring basis, but they have no impact on our initial financing proceeds, our future obligations to the residual interest owner (because future residual interest claims are limited to contractual securitization collateral cash flows), or the general operations of our business. As such, these positive and negative non-cash changes in fair value attributable to assumption changes are adjusted out of total net revenue to provide management and financial users with better visibility into the net revenue available to finance our operations.

Adjusted EBITDA

Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income (loss), adjusted to exclude, as applicable: (i) corporate borrowing-based interest expense (our adjusted EBITDA measure is not adjusted for warehouse or securitization-based interest expense, nor deposit interest expense and finance lease liability interest expense, as these are not direct operating expenses), (ii) income tax expense (benefit), (iii) depreciation and amortization, (iv) share-based expense (inclusive of equity-based payments to non-employees), (v) impairment expense (inclusive of goodwill impairment and property, equipment and software abandonments),

TABLE OF CONTENTS

(vi) transaction-related expenses, (vii) fair value changes in warrant liabilities, and (viii) fair value changes in each of servicing rights and residual interests classified as debt due to valuation assumptions. We believe adjusted EBITDA provides a useful measure for period-over-period comparisons of our business, as it removes the effects of certain non-cash items and certain charges that are not indicative of our core operating performance or results of operations. It is also a measure that management relies upon to evaluate cash flows generated from operations, and therefore the extent of additional capital, if any, required to invest in strategic initiatives. Adjusted EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, the analysis of other GAAP financial measures, such as net income (loss). Some of the limitations of adjusted EBITDA include that it does not reflect the impact of working capital requirements or capital expenditures and it is not a universally consistent calculation among companies in our industry, which limits its usefulness as a comparative measure.

___________________

(1)Our adjusted EBITDA measure adjusts for corporate borrowing-based interest expense, as these expenses are a function of our capital structure. Corporate borrowing-based interest expense primarily included: (i) interest on our revolving credit facility, (ii) for 2022 and 2021, the amortization of debt discount and debt issuance costs on our convertible notes, and (iii) for 2021 and 2020, interest on the seller note issued in connection with our acquisition of Galileo. Revolving credit facility interest expense in 2022 increased due to higher interest rates relative to the prior years on identical outstanding debt.

(2)Our income tax expense position in 2022 was primarily attributable to tax expense at SoFi Lending Corp and SoFi Bank due to profitability in state jurisdictions where separate filings are required and recognition of expense from Technisys in certain Latin American countries where separate returns are filed. The expense was partially offset by deferred tax benefits from the amortization of intangible assets acquired in the Technisys Merger. Our income tax expense position in 2021 was primarily attributable to SoFi Lending Corp.’s profitability in state jurisdictions where separate filings are required. Our income tax benefit position in 2020 was primarily due to a partial release of our valuation allowance in the second quarter in connection with deferred tax

liabilities resulting from intangible assets acquired from Galileo in May 2020. See Note 17 to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.

(3)Depreciation and amortization expense in 2022 increased compared to 2021 primarily in connection with our recent acquisitions and growth in our software balance, partially offset by the acceleration of core banking infrastructure amortization during the 2021 period. The increase in 2021 compared to 2020 was primarily in connection with our 2020 acquisitions, amortization of purchased and internally-developed software, and depreciation related to SoFi Stadium fixed assets, partially offset by a decrease related to the acceleration of core banking infrastructure amortization.

(4)Transaction-related expenses in 2022 primarily included financial advisory and professional services costs associated with our acquisition of Technisys and an exploratory process. Transaction-related expenses in 2021 included the special payment to the holders of Series 1 Redeemable Preferred Stock in conjunction with the Business Combination and financial advisory and professional costs associated with our then-pending acquisitions of Golden Pacific and Technisys. During 2020, transaction-related expenses included financial advisory and professional services costs associated with our acquisitions of Galileo and 8 Limited.

(5)Our adjusted EBITDA measure excludes the non-cash fair value changes in warrants accounted for as liabilities, which were measured at fair value through earnings. The amount in 2020, as well as a portion of 2021, related to changes in the fair value of Series H warrants issued by Social Finance in connection with certain redeemable preferred stock issuances. We did not measure the Series H warrants at fair value subsequent to May 28, 2021 in conjunction with the Business Combination, as they were reclassified into permanent equity. In addition, in conjunction with the Business Combination, SoFi Technologies assumed certain common stock warrants (“SoFi Technologies warrants”) that were accounted for as liabilities and measured at fair value on a recurring basis. The fair value of the SoFi Technologies warrants was based on the closing price of ticker SOFIW and, therefore, fluctuated based on market activity. The outstanding SoFi Technologies warrants were either exercised during the fourth quarter of 2021 or redeemed on December 6, 2021.

(6)Reflects changes in fair value inputs and assumptions, including market servicing costs, conditional prepayment, default rates and discount rates. This non-cash change is unrealized during the period and, therefore, has no impact on our cash flows from operations. As such, these positive and negative changes in fair value attributable to assumption changes are adjusted out of net loss to provide management and financial users with better visibility into the earnings available to finance our operations.

(7)Reflects changes in fair value inputs and assumptions, including conditional prepayment, default rates and discount rates. When third parties finance our consolidated VIEs through purchasing residual interests, we receive proceeds at the time of the securitization close and, thereafter, pass along contractual cash flows to the residual interest owner. These obligations are measured at fair value on a recurring basis, which has no impact on our initial financing proceeds, our future obligations to the residual interest owner (because future residual interest claims are limited to contractual securitization collateral cash flows), or the general operations of our business. As such, these positive and negative non-cash changes in fair value attributable to assumption changes are adjusted out of net loss to provide management and financial users with better visibility into the earnings available to finance our operations.

Members

We refer to our customers as “members”. We define a member as someone who has a lending relationship with us through origination and/or ongoing servicing, opened a financial services account, linked an external account to our platform or signed up for our credit score monitoring service. Our members have continuous access to our certified financial planners (“CFPs”), our career advice services, our member events, our content, educational material, news, and our tools and calculators, which are provided at no cost to the member. Additionally, our mobile app and website have a member home feed that is personalized and delivers content to a member about what they must do that day in their financial life, what they should consider doing that day in their financial life, and what they can do that day in their financial life.

Once someone becomes a member, they are always considered a member unless they violate our terms of service. We adjust our total number of members in the event a member is removed in accordance with our terms of service. This could occur for a variety of reasons—including fraud or pursuant to certain legal processes—and, as our terms of service evolve together with our business practices, product offerings and applicable regulations, our grounds for removing members from our total member count could change. The determination that a member should be removed in accordance with our terms of service is subject to an evaluation process, following the completion, and based on the results, of which, relevant members and their associated products are removed from our total member count in the period in which such evaluation process concludes. However, depending on the length of the evaluation process, that removal may not take place in the same period in which the member was added to our member count or the same period in which the circumstances leading to their removal occurred. For this reason, our total member count may not yet reflect adjustments that may be made once ongoing evaluation processes, if any, conclude.

We view members as an indication not only of the size and a measurement of growth of our business, but also as a measure of the significant value of the data we have collected over time. The data we collect from our members helps us to, among other things: (i) assess loan life performance data on each loan in our ecosystem, which can inform risk-based interest rates that we can offer our members, (ii) understand our members’ spending behavior to identify and suggest other products we offer that may align with the members’ financial needs, and (iii) enhance our opportunities to sell additional products to our members, as our members represent a vital source of marketing opportunities. When we provide additional products to members, it helps improve our unit economics per member, as we save on marketing costs that we would otherwise incur to attract new members. It also increases the lifetime value of an individual member. This in turn enhances our Financial Services Productivity Loop. Member growth is generally an indicator of future revenue, but is not directly correlated with revenues, since not all members who sign up for one of our products fully utilize or continue to use our products, and not all of our products (such as our complimentary product, SoFi Relay) provide direct sources of revenue.

Since our inception through December 31, 2022, we have served approximately 5.2 million members who have used approximately 7.9 million products on the SoFi platform.

Total Products

Total products refers to the aggregate number of lending and financial services products that our members have selected on our platform since our inception through the reporting date, whether or not the members are still registered for such products. Total products is a primary indicator of the size and reach of our Lending and Financial Services segments. Management relies on total products metrics to understand the effectiveness of our member acquisition efforts and to gauge the propensity for members to use more than one product.

In our Lending segment, total products refers to the number of personal loans, student loans and home loans that have been originated through our platform through the reporting date, whether or not such loans have been paid off. If a member has multiple loan products of the same loan product type, such as two personal loans, that is counted as a single product. However, if a member has multiple loan products across loan product types, such as one personal loan and one home loan, that is counted as two products.

In our Financial Services segment, total products refers to the number of SoFi Money accounts (presented inclusive of cash management accounts and SoFi Checking and Savings accounts held at SoFi Bank), SoFi Invest accounts, SoFi Credit Card accounts (including accounts with a zero dollar balance at the reporting date), referred loans (which are originated by a third-party partner to which we provide pre-qualified borrower referrals), SoFi At Work accounts and SoFi Relay accounts (with either credit score monitoring enabled or external linked accounts) that have been opened through our platform through the reporting date. Our SoFi Invest service is composed of three products: active investing accounts, robo-advisory accounts and digital assets accounts. Our members can select any one or combination of the three types of SoFi Invest products. If a member has multiple SoFi Invest products of the same account type, such as two active investing accounts, that is counted as a single product. However, if a member has multiple SoFi Invest products across account types, such as one active investing account and one robo-advisory account, those separate account types are considered separate products. In the event a member is removed in accordance with our terms of service, as discussed under “Members” above, the member’s associated products are also removed.

Technology Platform Total Accounts

In our Technology Platform segment, total accounts refers to the number of open accounts at Galileo as of the reporting date. We include intercompany accounts on the Galileo platform-as-a-service in our total accounts metric to better align with the Technology Platform segment revenue reported in Note 20 to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, which includes intercompany revenue. Intercompany revenue is eliminated in consolidation. Total accounts is a primary indicator of the accounts dependent upon our technology platform to use virtual card products, virtual wallets, make peer-to-peer and bank-to-bank transfers, receive early paychecks, separate savings from spending balances, make debit transactions and rely upon real-time authorizations, all of which result in revenues for the Technology Platform segment. We do not measure total accounts for the Technisys products and solutions, as the revenue model is not primarily dependent upon being a fully integrated, stand-ready service.

Key Factors Affecting Operating Results

Our future operating results and cash flows are dependent upon a number of opportunities, challenges and other factors, including our loan origination volume, financial services products and member activity on our platform, growth in technology platform customers, competition and industry trends, general economic conditions and our ability to optimize our national bank charter.

Origination Volume

Our Lending segment is our largest segment, comprising 72%, 75% and 85% of total net revenue during the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020, respectively. We are dependent upon the addition of new members and new activity from existing members within our Lending segment to generate origination volume, which we believe is a contributor to Lending segment net revenue. We believe we have a high-quality loan portfolio, as indicated by our Lending segment weighted average origination FICO score of 752 during the year ended December 31, 2022. See “Industry Trends and General Economic Conditions” for the impact of specific economic factors on origination volume.

Member Growth and Activity

We have invested heavily in our platform and are dependent on continued member growth, as well as our ability to generate additional revenues from our existing members using additional products and services. Member growth and activity is critical to our ability to increase our scale and earn a return on our technology and product investments. Growth in members and member activity will depend heavily on our ability to continue to offer attractive products and services at sustainable costs and our continued member acquisition and marketing efforts.

Product Growth

Our aim is to develop and offer a best-in-class integrated financial services platform with products that meet the broad objectives of our members and the lifecycle of their financial needs. We have invested, and continue to invest, heavily in the development, improvement and marketing of our suite of lending and financial services products and are dependent on continued growth in the number of products selected by our members, as well as our ability to build trust and reliability between our members and our platform to reinforce the effects of the Financial Services Productivity Loop. In order to deliver on our strategy, we aim to foster positive member experiences designed to lead to more product adoption by existing members, leading to enhanced profitability for each additional product by lowering overall member acquisition costs.

Galileo Account Growth

Galileo primarily provides technology platform services to financial and non-financial institutions, which enabled us to diversify our business from a primarily consumer-based business to also serve enterprises that rely upon Galileo’s integrated platform-as-a-service to serve their clients. We are dependent on growth in the number of accounts at Galileo, which is an indication of the amount of users that are dependent upon the technology platform for a variety of products and services, including virtual card products, virtual wallets, peer-to-peer and bank-to-bank transfers, early paychecks and relying on real-time authorizations, all of which generate revenue for Galileo.

Industry Trends and General Economic Conditions

Our results of operations have historically been relatively resilient to economic downturns but in the future may be impacted by the relative strength of the overall economy and its effect on unemployment, asset markets and consumer spending. As general economic conditions improve or deteriorate, the amount of consumer disposable income tends to fluctuate, which in turn impacts consumer spending levels and the willingness of consumers to take out loans to finance purchases or invest in financial assets. Specific economic factors, such as interest rate levels, changes in monetary and related policies, unemployment rates, market volatility, consumer confidence and changing expectations for inflation and deflation, also influence consumer spending, saving, investing and borrowing patterns.

The Federal Reserve increased the benchmark interest rate throughout 2022 (and has continued to do so to date in 2023), largely in response to increasing inflation, record low unemployment and strong consumer demand. In a rising interest

TABLE OF CONTENTS

rate environment, and operating under a bank charter, we have been able to offer more competitive interest rates to our members on their deposits, which we believe has resulted in increased demand for our deposits. However, rising interest rates have unfavorably impacted and could continue to unfavorably impact demand for refinancing loan products. In addition, if the Federal Reserve does not effectively curb inflation or interest rates rise unexpectedly or too quickly or macroeconomic conditions do not improve, it could have a negative impact on the overall economy and, resultantly, increase unemployment, which could adversely impact our results of operations. In 2022, we saw elevated credit spreads across capital markets and changes in consumer credit, which may continue in 2023. Negative changes to macroeconomic conditions may result in decreased demand for our products, increased operating costs and negatively impact our results of operations.

Student Loan Relief

As a result of certain national measures taken to counteract the economic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, such as the CARES Act passed during 2020 and subsequent extensions, principal and interest payments on federally-held student loans were suspended, which in turn lowered the propensity for borrowers to refinance into SoFi student loans relative to pre-COVID levels. Additionally, in 2022, President Biden announced relief measures for federal student loan borrowers, subject to income caps, including up to $20,000 in debt cancellation for Pell Grant recipients, and up to $10,000 in debt cancellation for non-Pell Grant recipients, as well as certain changes to income-driven repayment plans. Legal challenges to the relief measures are undergoing a review by the U.S. Supreme Court, with arguments recently heard on February 28, 2023 and a decision expected by mid-2023. Borrowers will not receive any forgiveness nor can additional borrowers apply for forgiveness until a decision is issued. In response, President Biden announced an additional extension of the federal student loan payment moratorium until 60 days after the litigation is fully resolved or 60 days after June 30, 2023, whichever happens first. While the eventual number of applicants under President Biden’s program and the impact of legal challenges to the program remain unknown, we expect to have decreased demand for our student loan refinancing products until the litigation is resolved, which would likely have an adverse impact on our results of operations and overall business.

SoFi Bank

A key element of our long-term strategy has been to secure a national bank charter. In February 2022, we closed the Bank Merger and began operating Golden Pacific Bank as SoFi Bank. See Note 2 to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information on the Bank Merger. In connection with operating a national bank, we have incurred and expect to continue to incur additional costs primarily associated with headcount, technology infrastructure, governance, compliance and risk management, marketing, and other general and administrative expenses.

See Part I, Item 1. “Company Overview—SoFi Bank” for a discussion of the key expected financial benefits to us of operating a national bank. See Part I, Item 1A. “Risk Factors” for discussion of certain potential risks related to being a bank holding company.

Key Components of Results of Operations

Net Interest Income

Net interest income primarily reflects the excess of interest income earned on our loans over the interest expense incurred to fund such loans. Net interest income is impacted by loan origination volume, the level of securitization activity, the amount of time we hold loans on our consolidated balance sheet and the volume of member deposits, as well as prevailing interest rates, which impact the rates we receive on our loans and securitization-related investments in bonds and residual interest positions, and the rates we incur from our funding sources including our warehouse facilities, securitization debt and member deposits at SoFi Bank. We also incur interest expense related to our revolving credit facility, as well as on our convertible notes issued in October 2021 in the form of amortization of debt issuance costs and original issue discount.

Noninterest Income

Noninterest income primarily consists of: (i) fair value changes in loans while we hold them on our consolidated balance sheet, inclusive of our hedging activities, (ii) gains on sales of loans transferred into the securitization or whole loan sale channels, (iii) the income we receive from our loan servicing activities, as well as the assumption of servicing rights from third parties, (iv) fair value changes related to our securitization activities, (v) revenue recognized from contracts with customers, which primarily relates to our technology products and solutions revenues and has grown due to our recent acquisitions and the growth and expansion of our financial services offerings, and (vi) gains and losses on non-securitization investments.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Noninterest Expense

Noninterest expense primarily relates to the following categories of expenses: (i) technology and product development, (ii) sales and marketing, (iii) cost of operations, and (iv) general and administrative. Certain costs are included within each of these line items, such as compensation and benefits-related expense (inclusive of share-based compensation expense), professional services, depreciation and amortization, and occupancy-related costs. We allocate certain costs to each of these categories based on department-level headcounts. We generally expect these expenses to increase in absolute dollars as our business continues to grow. Lastly, noninterest expense includes the provision for credit losses, which primarily relates to our credit card product.

Directly Attributable Expenses

As presented within “Summary Results by Segment”, in our determination of the contribution profit (loss) for our reportable segments, we allocate certain expenses that are directly attributable to the segment. Directly attributable expenses primarily include compensation and benefits and sales and marketing, inclusive of member incentives, and vary based on the amount of activity within each segment. Directly attributable expenses also include loan origination and servicing expenses, professional services, product fulfillment and lead generation. Expenses are attributed to the reportable segments using either direct costs of the segment or labor costs that can be attributed based upon the allocation of employee time for individual products.

___________________

(1)We calculate the change in interest income and interest expense separately for each item. Volume and rate changes have been allocated on a consistent basis using the respective percentage changes in average balances and average rates.

2022 vs. 2021. Net interest income increased by $331.9 million, or 132%, during the year ended December 31, 2022 compared to the year ended December 31, 2021, primarily driven by higher interest income from non-securitization personal and student loans, which were primarily a function of increases in average balances, higher personal loan origination volume and longer loan holding periods. This increase was partially offset by interest expense on deposits at SoFi Bank during 2022, and lower interest income from consolidated personal and student loan securitizations, which were impacted by decreases in average balances primarily attributable to payment activity and the absence of additions to our consolidated securitization loan balances.

Net interest margin increased by 145 basis points during the year ended December 31, 2022 compared to the year ended December 31, 2021 primarily driven by higher interest-earning assets at higher average yields, particularly related to non-securitization loans, partially offset by higher interest rates paid on warehouse facilities and interest-bearing deposits used to fund our loan originations.

2021 vs. 2020. Net interest income increased by $74.3 million, or 42%, during the year ended December 31, 2021 compared to the year ended December 31, 2020, primarily driven by: (i) lower interest expense associated with lower average securitization and warehouse debt balances, as well as lower reference rates and lower warehouse facility interest rate spreads, (ii) lower securitizations interest income, which was primarily attributable to decreases in residual investment interest income and asset-backed bonds due primarily to decreases in average securitization investment balances, (iii) lower interest income from consolidated personal and student loan securitizations, which were impacted by declines in average balances attributable to payment activity and deconsolidation activity in 2020. This increase was partially offset by higher interest income on non-securitization personal and student loans, which were primarily a function of increases in average balances, higher personal loan origination volume and longer loan holding periods for student loans.

Net interest margin increased by 106 basis points during the year ended December 31, 2021 compared to the year ended December 31, 2020, primarily driven by decreases in the average balances of warehouse facilities and securitization debt, lower reference rates and warehouse facility interest rate spreads in 2021 compared to 2020, as well as the impact of the seller note issued in 2020 in connection with the acquisition of Galileo and repaid in early 2021.

2022 vs. 2021. Total noninterest income increased by $256.8 million, or 35%, for the year ended December 31, 2022 compared to the year ended December 31, 2021, primarily driven by loan hedging activities due to higher interest rates in 2022, partially offset by lower income related to in period originations, loan sale execution and fair value adjustments on loans, as well as higher loan write offs. The increase was also attributable to growth in technology products and solutions fees driven by account growth and increased activity among our existing integrated technology solutions clients combined with revenue contribution from the Technisys Merger in 2022.

2021 vs. 2020. Total noninterest income increased by $345.0 million, or 89%, for the year ended December 31, 2021 compared to the year ended December 31, 2020, primarily driven by loan hedging activities and higher income related to in period originations, loan sale execution and fair value adjustments on loans.

2022 vs. 2021. Total noninterest expense increased by $426.2 million, or 29%, for the year ended December 31, 2022 compared to the year ended December 31, 2021, primarily driven by: (i) higher employee compensation and benefits (inclusive of an increase in share-based compensation expense), a portion of which was attributable to the Technisys Merger and the remainder of which was related to increased personnel to support our growth in 2022, (ii) increases in advertising expenditures and utilization of lead generation channels, (iii) an increase in the provision for credit losses, which reflected higher average credit card balances combined with elevated credit card loss rates during 2022, (iv) an increase in amortization of intangible assets due to acquired intangible assets in the Technisys Merger, and (v) an increase in purchased and internally-developed software amortization, reflective of continued investments in technology.

2021 vs. 2020. Total noninterest expense increased by $572.0 million, or 64%, for the year ended December 31, 2021 compared to the year ended December 31, 2020, primarily driven by: (i) higher employee compensation and benefits (inclusive of an increase in share-based compensation expense), which was related to increased personnel to support our growth, higher average compensation in 2021 and the effect of new awards at increased share prices, (ii) increases in advertising expenditures, direct customer promotional expenditures and utilization of lead generation channels, (iii) an increase in expenditures related to fair value changes in warrant liabilities, with the increase in fair value changes on Series H redeemable preferred stock exceeding the decrease related to the SoFi Technologies warrants assumed in the Business Combination, (iv) an increase related to the special payment made to the Series 1 preferred stockholders in 2021 associated with the Business Combination, (v) an increase in amortization expense on intangible assets, primarily associated with intangible assets acquired during the second quarter of 2020, (vi) an increase in software licenses, tools and subscriptions and other related fees, (vii) an increase in product fulfillment costs, primarily related to payment processing network association fees associated with increased activity on our technology platform, and (viii) the establishment of the provision for credit losses on our credit card product.

(1)Average balances were calculated on thirteen-month ending balances and include accrued interest.

(2)The increase in the net charge-off rate associated with credit card was primarily related to our maturing portfolio, as the product was launched in the second half of 2020 and balances charge off after 180 days of delinquency.

2022 vs. 2021. The provision for credit losses increased by $46.8 million, which primarily reflected higher average credit card balances combined with elevated credit card loss rates during 2022.

Income Taxes

For the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020, we recorded income tax (expense) benefit of $(1.7) million, $(2.8) million, and $104.5 million, respectively. Our income tax expense position in 2022 was primarily attributable to tax expense at SoFi Lending Corp. and SoFi Bank due to profitability in state jurisdictions where separate filings are required and recognition of expense from Technisys in certain Latin American countries where separate returns are filed. The expense was partially offset by deferred tax benefits from the amortization of intangible assets acquired in the Technisys Merger. The significant change in our income tax positions for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021 relative to 2020 was primarily due to a partial release of our valuation allowance in the second quarter of 2020 in connection with deferred tax liabilities resulting from intangible assets acquired from Galileo in May 2020, which decreased the valuation allowance by $99.8 million.

Summary Results by Segment

Contribution profit (loss) is the primary measure of segment-level profit and loss that, along with our key business metrics, is used by management to evaluate our business, measure our performance, identify trends and make strategic decisions. Contribution profit (loss) is defined as total net revenue for each reportable segment less expenses directly

Total Products

Total products in our Lending segment is a subset of our total products metric. See “Key Business Metrics” for further discussion of this measure as it relates to our Lending segment.

Origination Volume

We refer to the aggregate dollar amount of loans originated through our platform in a given period as origination volume. Origination volume is an indicator of the size and health of our Lending segment and an indicator (together with the relevant loan characteristics, such as interest rate and prepayment and default expectations) of revenues and profitability. Changes in origination volume are driven by the addition of new members and existing members, the latter of which at times will either refinance into a new SoFi loan or secure an additional, concurrent loan, as well as macroeconomic factors impacting consumer spending and borrowing behavior. Since the profitability of the Lending segment is largely correlated with origination volume, management relies on origination volume trends to assess the need for external financing to support the Financial Services segment and the expense budgets for unallocated expenses.

Personal Loans. During the year ended December 31, 2022, personal loan origination volume increased significantly relative to 2021, primarily due to increased demand driven by expanded marketing efforts and increased demand for debt consolidation products in a rising interest rate environment. This was combined with a positive impact from increased loan application approval rates within our existing credit parameters that were implemented during the second half of 2021 and maintained through mid-2022, with slight credit tightening implemented in the second half of 2022.

Personal loan origination volume increased significantly during the year ended December 31, 2021 compared to 2020, primarily due to the improved economic outlook and consumer confidence levels throughout 2021, as there was lower consumer spending behavior during the earlier stages of the COVID-19 pandemic, which we believe decreased the overall demand for debt consolidation loans. Origination volume in 2021 also benefited from the increased loan application approval rate implemented during the second half of 2021.

SoFi Technologies, Inc.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Student Loans. During the year ended December 31, 2022, student loan origination volume decreased significantly relative to 2021, as demand for student loan refinancing products continued to be unfavorably impacted by the ongoing suspension of principal and interest payments on federally-held student loans and the expectation of debt cancellation for certain federal student loan borrowers, combined with a rising interest rate environment in 2022. See “Key Factors Affecting Operating Results—Student Loan Relief” for additional discussion of student loans.

Student loan origination volume decreased during the year ended December 31, 2021 compared to 2020, primarily due to the suspension of principal and interest payments on federally-held student loans.

Home Loans. During the year ended December 31, 2022, home loan origination volume decreased significantly relative to 2021 due to continued rising interest rates relative to 2021 levels, which tends to lower demand for home loans overall and shift demand from refinance originations to purchase originations, the latter of which is a more competitive landscape. Although purchase originations have historically represented a smaller percentage of our home loan originations, our mix has shifted toward more purchase originations in the second half of 2022.

Home loan origination volume increased during the year ended December 31, 2021 compared to 2020 due to an increase in our loan application approval rate and operational efficiencies gained through scale of the platform, which were tempered by rising U.S. Treasury rates relative to the 2020 levels.

Loans with a Balance and Average Loan Balance

Loans with a balance refers to the number of loans that have a balance greater than zero dollars as of the reporting date. Loans with a balance allows management to better understand the unit economics of acquiring a loan in relation to the lifetime value of that loan. Average loan balance is defined as the total unpaid principal balance of the loans divided by loans with a balance within the respective loan product category as of the reporting date. Average loan balance tends to fluctuate based on the pace of loan originations relative to loan repayments and the initial loan origination size.

(1)Reflects changes in fair value inputs and assumptions, including market servicing costs, conditional prepayment, default rates and discount rates. This non-cash change, which is recorded within noninterest income in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss) is unrealized during the period and, therefore, has no impact on our cash flows from operations. As such, the changes in fair value attributable to assumption changes are adjusted to provide management and financial users with better visibility into the cash flows available to finance our operations.

(2)Reflects changes in fair value inputs and assumptions, including conditional prepayment, default rates and discount rates. When third parties finance our consolidated VIEs through purchasing residual interests, we receive proceeds at the time of the securitization close and, thereafter, pass along contractual cash flows to the residual interest owner. These obligations are measured at fair value on a recurring basis, with fair value changes recorded within noninterest income in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss). The fair value change attributable to assumption changes has no impact on our initial financing proceeds, our future obligations to the residual interest owner (because future residual interest claims are limited to contractual securitization collateral cash flows), or the general operations of our business. As such, this non-cash change in fair value is adjusted to provide management and financial users with better visibility into the cash flows available to finance our operations.

Net interest income

2022 vs. 2021. Net interest income in our Lending segment increased by $273.4 million, or 106%, for the year ended December 31, 2022 compared to 2021, which was primarily attributable to non-securitization loans. Higher interest income on non-securitization personal loans and student loans was primarily a function of increases in aggregate average balances of $2.8 billion (185%) and $1.3 billion (62%), respectively. The personal loan average balance increase was primarily attributable to higher origination volume and purchase activity combined with a higher weighted average interest rate earned on whole loans and longer loan holding periods. The student loan average balance increase was primarily attributable to longer loan holding periods, partially offset by a lower weighted average interest rate earned on whole loans. Interest expense associated with funding our lending activities, which was determined using an FTP framework in 2022 and was based on actual interest expense on our use of securitizations and warehouse facilities in 2021, increased by $115.6 million, or 128%, year over year, primarily due to the sharp increase in benchmark rates.

2021 vs. 2020. Net interest income in our Lending segment increased by $58.8 million, or 29%, for the year ended December 31, 2021 compared to 2020, which was primarily attributable to: (i) lower interest expense associated with lower average securitization and warehouse debt balances of 50% and 9%, respectively, as well as lower reference rates and lower warehouse facility interest rate spreads, (ii) lower securitizations interest income, which was primarily attributable to decreases in residual investment interest income and asset-backed bonds due primarily to decreases in average securitization investment balances, (iii) lower interest income from consolidated personal and student loan securitizations, which were impacted by decreases in average balances of 60% and 39%, respectively, attributable to payment activity and deconsolidation activity in 2020, and (iv) partially offset by higher interest income on non-securitization personal and student loans, which were primarily a function of increases in aggregate average balances of 77% and 36%, respectively, higher personal loan origination volume and longer loan holding periods for student loans.

Servicing

We own the master servicing on all of the servicing rights that we retain and, in each case, recognize the gross servicing rate applicable to each serviced loan. Sub-servicers are utilized for all serviced student loans and home loans, which represents a cost to SoFi, but these arrangements do not impact our calculation of the weighted average basis points earned for each loan type serviced. Further, there is no impact on servicing income due to forbearance and moratoriums on certain debt collection activities, and there are no waivers of late fees.

2022 vs. 2021. Noninterest income in our Lending segment increased by $128.3 million, or 27%, for the year ended December 31, 2022 compared to 2021, which was primarily driven by higher loan origination and sales income of $107.5 million and higher servicing income of $45.6 million, partially offset by lower securitizations income of $25.2 million.

SoFi Technologies, Inc.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

The increase in loan origination and sales income was primarily driven by: (i) gains on student loan and personal loan interest rate swap positions primarily driven by higher interest rates in 2022, (ii) fair value gains on personal loan originations in the year, partially offset by fair value losses on student loan and home loan originations in the year, each correlated with origination volume, and (iii) gains on home loan pipeline hedges due to decreases in the underlying hedge price index. This increase was partially offset by: (i) lower fair value marks on loans held on balance sheet at period end (including in period originations) across all loan products, primarily driven by deterioration in general market conditions, (ii) lower execution prices on sales activity across all loan products, due to both volume and price factors, and (iii) higher loan write offs, primarily driven by higher average personal loan balances and elevated charge off rates in 2022.

The increase in servicing income was primarily related to favorable changes in valuation inputs and assumptions for student loans, which was primarily attributable to decreased prepayment rate assumptions during 2022 compared to increased assumptions during 2021, partially offset by increased discount rate assumptions during 2022.

The decrease in securitizations income was primarily due to: (i) a decrease in securitization loan fair market value changes, principally due to increases in market interest rates, and (ii) a decline in securitization bond fair values that were impacted by the interest rate volatility during the 2022 period. The decrease was partially offset by gains in the 2022 period on our economic hedges of securitization investments and favorable changes in residual debt fair value adjustments.

2021 vs. 2020. Noninterest income in our Lending segment increased by $198.7 million, or 71%, for the year ended December 31, 2021 compared to 2020, which was primarily driven by higher loan origination and sales income of $126.3 million, improvement in securitizations income of $55.4 million and higher servicing income of $17.1 million.

The increase in loan origination and sales income was primarily driven by: (i) gains on student loan and personal loan interest rate swap positions primarily driven by higher interest rates in 2021, (ii) gains on home loan pipeline hedges due to decreases in the underlying hedge price index, (iii) fair value gains on personal loan and home loan originations, partially offset by fair value losses on student loan originations, each correlated with origination volume, and (iv) higher execution prices on sales activity for personal loans, as volume factors exceeded lower prices. The increase was partially offset by: (i) lower execution prices on sales activity related to student loans and home loans, (ii) a decrease in home loan IRLCs, and (iii) the absence of a gain on a credit default swap that occurred in 2020.

The improvement in securitizations income was primarily due to: (i) an increase in securitization loan fair market value changes, principally due to the significantly improved economic environment during 2021 relative to 2020, (ii) a reduction in securitization loan write-offs in 2021, which was correlated with the deconsolidation of securitizations in 2020, stronger securitization loan credit performance and lower average securitization loan balances during 2021, and (iii) the absence of losses from deconsolidations that occurred in 2020. The improvement was partially offset by unfavorable changes in residual debt and securitization bond fair value adjustments.

The increase in servicing income was primarily related to favorable changes in valuation inputs and assumptions, primarily attributable to: (i) a lower rate of increase in prepayment rate assumptions during 2021 compared to 2020, and (ii) a decreased discount rate assumption for home loans, as market trends demonstrated stronger demand for the home loan servicing asset class during 2021.

(1)Other expenses primarily include loan marketing expenses, member promotional expenses, tools and subscriptions, travel and occupancy-related costs, and third-party loan fraud (net of related insurance recoveries).

2022 vs. 2021. Lending segment directly attributable expenses increased by $78.8 million, or 22%, for the year ended December 31, 2022 compared to 2021, primarily due to: (i) an increase in direct advertising primarily related to direct mail, search engine and social network advertising, partially offset by declines in television advertisement; (ii) increasing utilization of lead generation channels primarily associated with increased personal loan origination volume in 2022; (iii) an increase in allocated compensation and related benefits, which primarily reflected increases in headcount allocated to the Lending segment and increased average compensation in 2022, partially offset by decreases in home loan commissions attributable to decreases in home loan originations; and (iv) a decrease in loan origination and servicing costs, which were largely attributable to decreases in home loan origination costs, partially offset by increases in personal loan origination costs, each of which was correlated with origination volumes.

2021 vs. 2020. Lending segment directly attributable expenses increased by $69.4 million, or 24%, for the year ended December 31, 2021 compared to 2020, primarily due to: (i) increasing utilization of lead generation channels associated with increased personal loan origination volume in 2021, which was partially offset by lower student loan origination volume through lead generation channels; (ii) an increase in direct advertising primarily related to search engine, television, social media and digital advertising expenditures, partially offset by a decline in direct mail marketing expenditures; and (iii) an increase in loan origination and servicing costs, which supported our growth in origination volume, primarily in home loans.

Noninterest income

Noninterest income in our Technology Platform segment increased by $120.2 million, or 62%, for the year ended December 31, 2022 compared to 2021, of which $69.2 million was attributable to revenue contribution from the Technisys Merger in 2022. The remaining increase was primarily attributable to growth in technology products and solutions fees driven by account growth and increased activity among our existing integrated technology solutions clients. Noninterest income included $7.6 million and $1.9 million of intercompany revenue for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

2022 vs. 2021. Technology Platform segment directly attributable expenses increased by $108.2 million, or 83%, for the year ended December 31, 2022 compared to 2021, primarily due to: (i) an increase in compensation and benefits expense, which was correlated with an increase in personnel to support segment growth and of which Technisys compensation and benefits contributed $53.0 million during 2022; and (ii) an increase in tools and subscriptions costs related to headcount increases and internal technology initiatives to support the growth of the platform, along with the inclusion of Technisys in our 2022 results.

2021 vs. 2020. Technology Platform segment directly attributable expenses increased by $88.0 million, or 207%, for the year ended December 31, 2021 compared to 2020 (which were partially impacted by the timing of our acquisition of Galileo in the second quarter of 2020 compared to full results in 2021), primarily due to: (i) an increase in compensation and benefits expense, which was correlated with an increase in personnel to support segment growth, as well as an increase in average compensation in 2021; and (ii) an increase in product fulfillment costs, primarily related to payment processing network association fees associated with increased activity on the platform.

Financial Services Segment Results of Operations

The following table presents the measure of contribution loss for the Financial Services segment. The information is derived from our internal financial reporting used for corporate management purposes. During the first quarter of 2022, we implemented an FTP framework to attribute net interest income to our business segments based on their usage and/or provision of funding, as further discussed below.

__________________

(1)Net interest income and, thereby, total net revenue and contribution loss for our Financial Services segment reported for the year ended December 31, 2022 reflects the implementation of an FTP framework, under which Financial Services segment net interest income reflects the difference between an FTP credit for the segment’s provision of deposits as a source of funding and an FTP charge for the segment’s use of funds related to credit cards. For the comparative periods ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, our Financial Services segment net interest income was nominal, as it did not have deposits and the credit card product was nascent. If we had applied our current FTP framework during the comparative periods, the Financial Services segment net interest income would not have materially changed.

Net interest income

2022 vs. 2021. Net interest income in our Financial Services segment increased by $88.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2022 compared to 2021, which was primarily attributable to net interest income earned on our deposits, which includes interest income based on our FTP framework (which eliminates in consolidation) and interest expense to members, and corresponds with the level of deposits at SoFi Bank. In addition, net interest income earned on our credit cards increased primarily due to growth in the average balance.

Uninsured Deposits

As of December 31, 2022, the amount of uninsured deposits totaled $615.9 million. We did not have any deposits as of December 31, 2021. The following table presents uninsured time deposits by remaining time to maturity:

($ in thousands)December 31, 2022

Noninterest income

2022 vs. 2021. Noninterest income in our Financial Services segment increased by $20.8 million, or 38%, for the year ended December 31, 2022 compared to 2021, primarily due to growth in referral fulfillment activity, as we continue to drive volume to our partners and an increase in interchange fees, which coincided with increased credit card and debit card

transactions. The increase was partially offset by a decrease in brokerage-related fees, which was primarily attributable to decreased digital assets trading volume on our platform during 2022.

2021 vs. 2020. Noninterest income in our Financial Services segment increased by $42.9 million, or 377%, for the year ended December 31, 2021 compared to 2020, primarily due to: (i) an increase in brokerage-related fees, which coincided with higher digital assets trading volume on our platform during 2021; (ii) an increase in referral fees, which was primarily attributable to growth in our partner relationships and related activity, as we continue to onboard new partners and help drive volume to these partners, as well as an increase associated with a referral fulfillment arrangement we entered in the third quarter of 2021; and (iii) an increase in interchange fees, which coincided with increased credit card and debit card transactions.

2022 vs. 2021. Financial Services directly attributable expenses increased by $174.1 million, or 90%, for the year ended December 31, 2022 compared to 2021, primarily due to: (i) an increase related to our provision for credit losses, which was primarily related to increases in the provision for credit cards due to higher average credit card balances combined with elevated credit card loss rates during 2022; (ii) an increase in compensation and benefits expense, which reflected our ongoing prioritization of growth in the Financial Services segment that required additional staffing, as well as increased average compensation in 2022; (iii) an increase in direct member incentives utilized to drive adoption and usage of our Financial Services products, the most significant of which was SoFi Checking and Savings; (iv) an increase related to utilization of lead generation channels during 2022, primarily related to SoFi Checking and Savings; and (v) an increase in direct advertising costs primarily driven by an increase in search engine and social network marketing primarily related to the continued promotion of SoFi Checking and Savings.

2021 vs. 2020. Financial Services directly attributable expenses increased by $49.0 million, or 34%, for the year ended December 31, 2021 compared to 2020, primarily due to: (i) an increase in product fulfillment costs related to SoFi Invest and SoFi Money, which included such activities as operating our cash management sweep program, brokerage expenses and debit card fulfillment services, and is also inclusive of the impact of our 8 Limited acquisition on a full year of operations during 2021. We also had additional costs related to credit card fulfillment in 2021; (ii) an increase in direct advertising costs primarily driven by an increase in social media and search engine marketing related to the continued promotion of, and growth in, our Financial Services products; (iii) an increase in direct member incentives utilized to drive adoption and usage of primarily SoFi Money and SoFi Invest; (iv) an increase related to lead generation, primarily related to SoFi Invest; and (v) an increase in our provision for credit losses on credit cards, which launched during the third quarter of 2020.

Corporate/Other Non-Reportable Segment

Non-segment operations are classified as Corporate/Other, which includes net revenues associated with corporate functions, non-recurring gains and losses from non-securitization investment activities and interest income and realized gains and losses associated with investments in available-for-sale (“AFS”) debt securities, all of which are not directly related to a reportable segment. For the year ended December 31, 2022, net interest expense within Corporate/Other also reflects the

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Liquidity

We strive to maintain access to diverse funding sources and ample liquidity to fund our operating requirements, to pursue strategic growth initiatives and to meet our legal and regulatory requirements. Our principal sources of liquidity are our cash and cash equivalents, including cash from operations, and investments in other highly liquid assets.

We maintain a Capital and Asset Liability Management policy (“CALM”) that outlines specific requirements relating to the oversight of SoFi Technologies, Inc. (and its subsidiaries) capital planning, financial planning and forecasting, liquidity risk management, contingency funding planning, interest rate risk management, cash management and financial operations, among other activities. Oversight of these activities is the responsibility of our Asset Liability Committee (the “ALCO”). The ALCO is comprised of a cross-functional leadership team that is responsible for managing our use of capital, liquidity, sources and uses of funding, and sensitivities to various market risks, by identifying key risks and exposures, monitoring them appropriately, establishing tolerances and limits, and mitigating risks where appropriate, to ensure the Company has the ability to meet its obligations.

Investments in available-for-sale debt securities195,438194,907
Available liquidity$1,617,345$689,618

We believe our existing balance sheet liquidity will be sufficient to cover net losses, meet our existing working capital and capital expenditure needs, as well as our planned growth for at least the next 12 months.

Sources of Funding

Our primary funding sources include SoFi Bank deposits, warehouse funding, common and preferred equity capital, convertible debt, corporate revolving credit facility, securitizations, and other financings.

Deposits

We commenced offering deposit accounts (SoFi Checking and Savings accounts) to our members through SoFi Bank in the first quarter of 2022. We also source brokered and non-brokered wholesale deposits, which include certificates of deposit. As of December 31, 2022, time deposit balances due in less than one year totaled $966.6 million. We did not have any deposits as of December 31, 2021.

__________________

(1)Includes personal loan, student loan, credit card and risk retention warehouse facilities. For risk retention facilities, we only include capacity amounts wherein we can pledge additional asset-backed bonds and residual investments as of the date indicated.

Uses of Funding

Our primary uses of funds include loan originations, the losses generated by our Financial Services segment, and investments in our business, such as technology and product investments and sales and marketing initiatives. Our capital expenditures have historically been less significant relative to our operating and financing cash flows, and we expect this trend to continue for the foreseeable future.

As of December 31, 2022, we had debt obligations, common stock and redeemable preferred stock outstanding.

Borrowings

Our borrowings primarily included our loan and risk retention warehouse facilities, asset-backed securitization debt, revolving credit facility and convertible notes, as defined below. The amount of financing actually advanced on each individual loan under our loan warehouse facilities, as determined by agreed-upon advance rates, may be less than the stated advance rate depending, in part, on changes in underlying loan characteristics of the loans securing the financings. Each of our loan warehouse facilities allows the lender providing the funds to evaluate the market value of the loans that are serving as collateral for the borrowings or advances being made. The amount owed and outstanding on our loan warehouse facilities fluctuates significantly based on our origination volume, sales volume, the amount of time we strategically hold loans on our balance sheet, and the amount of loans being self-funded with cash.

In October 2021, we closed on the issuance of $1.2 billion aggregate principal amount of convertible senior notes (the “Convertible Notes”), which do not bear regular interest, will mature in October 2026 (unless earlier repurchased, redeemed or converted) and will be convertible by the noteholders beginning in April 2026 under certain circumstances. Redemption events and conversion events (to the extent we elect to cash settle) could require a material use of cash at the time of the event. See

108

SoFi Technologies, Inc.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Note 12 to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information on the conversion, settlement and redemption terms of the Convertible Notes. Additionally, if special interest or additional interest is incurred on the Convertible Notes, it could require an additional use of cash.

In connection with the issuance of the Convertible Notes, we entered into privately negotiated Capped Call Transactions with certain financial institutions, which are expected to generally reduce the potential dilutive effect on the common stock upon any conversion of the notes and/or offset any cash payments we are required to make in excess of the principal amount of the converted notes, as the case may be. Refer to Note 13 for additional information on the Capped Call Transactions.

The net proceeds from the convertible debt issuance were $1.176 billion. We used $113.8 million of the net proceeds to fund the cost of entering into the Capped Call Transactions. We allotted the remainder of the net proceeds to pay related expenses and for general corporate purposes.

Covenants

We have various affirmative and negative financial covenants, as well as non-financial covenants, related to our warehouse debt and revolving credit facility, as well as our Series 1 Redeemable Preferred Stock. Additionally, we have compliance requirements associated with our Convertible Notes, and certain provisions of the arrangement could change in the event of a “Make-Whole Fundamental Change”, as defined in the indenture.

The availability of funds under our warehouse facilities and revolving credit facility is subject to, among other conditions, our continued compliance with the covenants. These financial covenants include, but are not limited to, maintaining: (i) a certain minimum tangible net worth, (ii) minimum cash and cash equivalents, and (iii) a maximum leverage ratio of total debt to tangible net worth. A breach of these covenants can result in an event of default under these facilities and allows the lenders to pursue certain remedies. Our subsidiaries are restricted in the amount that can be distributed to SoFi only to the extent that such distributions would cause the financial covenants to not be met.

In addition, pursuant to our amended and restated agreement related to our Series 1 Redeemable Preferred Stock, we are subject to the following financial covenants:

•Tangible net worth to total debt ratio requirement, which excludes our warehouse, risk retention and securitization related debt;

•Tangible net worth to Series 1 Redeemable Preferred Stock ratio requirement; and

•Minimum excess equity requirements, where the measure of equity includes permanent equity and SoFi Technologies Redeemable Preferred Stock (exclusive of Series 1 Redeemable Preferred Stock), as applicable.

We were in compliance with all covenants as of December 31, 2022.

Capital Management

SoFi Technologies, a bank holding company, and SoFi Bank, a nationally chartered association, are required to comply with regulatory capital rules issued by the Federal Reserve and other U.S. banking regulators, including the OCC and FDIC. Shortly after we closed the Bank Merger, we allocated $750 million in capital to SoFi Bank and may contribute more capital as SoFi Bank continues to grow. We are required to manage our capital position to maintain sufficient capital to satisfy these regulatory rules and support our business activities, including the requirement to maintain minimum regulatory capital ratios in accordance with the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision standardized approach for U.S. banking organizations (U.S. Basel III). If the Federal Reserve finds that we are not “well-capitalized” or “well-managed”, we would be required to take remedial action to comply with all applicable capital and management requirements, which may contain additional limitations or conditions relating to our activities.

The requirements establish required minimum ratios for Common Equity Tier 1 (“CET1”) risk-based capital, Tier 1 risk-based capital, total risk-based capital and a Tier 1 leverage ratio; set risk-weighting for assets and certain other items for purposes of the risk-based capital ratios; and define what qualifies as capital for purposes of meeting the capital requirements. As of December 31, 2022, our regulatory capital ratios exceeded the thresholds required to be regarded as a well-capitalized institution, and meet all capital adequacy requirements to which we are subject. There have been no events or conditions since December 31, 2022 that management believes would change the categorization. See Note 21 to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for the risk- and leverage-based capital ratios and amounts for SoFi Bank and SoFi Technologies.

__________________

(1)The amounts reported exclude future interest expense, other than interest accrued as of December 31, 2022, as it is difficult to predict the amount of interest we will incur due to the variability of the utilization of our warehouse debt and timing of collateral cash flows. As such, only principal commitments and the aforementioned accrued interest are included herein. See Note 12 to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information on our warehouse debt.

(2)Includes principal balance and variable interest on our revolving credit facility. The estimated interest payments assume that our borrowings under the revolving credit facility (i) remain unchanged, (ii) are held to maturity, and (iii) incur interest at the rate for standard withdrawals in effect as of December 31, 2022 through its maturity. See Note 12 to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information on our revolving credit facility.

(3)The Convertible Notes will mature on October 15, 2026, unless earlier repurchased, redeemed or converted. See “Borrowings” for additional information on these provisions.

(4)The contractual obligations associated with the operating lease and finance lease components of the Naming and Sponsorship Agreement with the LA Stadium and Entertainment District are reported in the corresponding lines and are, therefore, excluded from amounts reported in this line. As of December 31, 2022, all payments associated with the planned retail district, which is currently expected to commence during 2023, are attributed to non-lease components. We do not expect the agreement to contain a material lease component, although the evaluation remains ongoing. See Note 9 to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information on our leases.

(5)Relates to a four-year purchase commitment entered into during 2021 for cloud computing services with a total of $80 million to be incurred through the term, of which $20.5 million was incurred through December 31, 2022. See Note 18 to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.

(6)Contractual obligations exclude residual interests classified as debt that result from transfers of assets that are accounted for as secured financings. Similarly, contractual obligations exclude securitization debt, as the maturity of the notes issued by the various trusts occurs upon either the maturity of the loan collateral or full payment of the loan collateral held in the trusts, the timing of which cannot be reasonably estimated. Additionally, our own liquidity resources are not required to make any contractual payments on these borrowings, except in limited instances associated with our guarantee arrangements. Our maturity date represents the legal maturity of the last class of maturing notes. See Note 18 to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion of our guarantees. Finally, contractual obligations exclude the impact of uncertain tax positions, as we are not able to reasonably estimate the timing of such future cash flows. See Note 17 to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information on income taxes and unrecognized tax benefits.

Guarantees

We may require liquidity resources associated with our guarantee arrangements. As a component of our loan sale agreements, we make certain representations to third parties that purchased our previously held loans. We have a three-year obligation to GSEs on loans that we sell to GSEs, to repurchase any originated loans that do not meet certain GSE guidelines, and we are required to pay the full initial purchase price back to the GSEs. In addition, we make standard representations and warranties related to personal, student and home loan transfers, as well as limited credit-related repurchase guarantees on certain such transfers. If realized, any of the repurchases would require the use of cash. See Note 18 to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for further information on these and other guarantee obligations. We believe we have adequate liquidity to meet these expected obligations.

Factors Affecting Liquidity

We are currently dependent on the success of our lending business. The primary drivers of operating cash flows related to our Lending segment are origination volume, the holding period of our loans, loan sale execution and the timing of loan repayments. Our ability to access whole loan buyers, to sell our loans on favorable terms, to maintain adequate warehouse capacity at favorable terms, to access new SoFi bank deposits and grow existing bank deposits and to strategically manage our continuing financial interest in securitization-related transfers is critical to our growth strategy and our ability to have adequate

liquidity to fund our balance sheet. Our ability to attract and maintain bank deposits can be impacted by, among other things, general economic conditions, competition from other financial services firms, idiosyncratic events and the interest rates we offer, which can impact our liquidity from deposits. Additionally, there is no guarantee that we will be able to execute on our strategy as it relates to the timing and pricing of securitization-related transfers. Therefore, we may hold securitization interests for longer than planned or be forced to liquidate at suboptimal prices. Securitization transfers are also negatively impacted during recessionary periods, wherein purchasers may be more risk averse.

Our cash flows from operations have also been impacted by material net losses. If our current net losses continue for the foreseeable future, we may raise additional capital in the form of equity or debt, which may not be at favorable terms when compared to previous financing transactions.

Further, future uncertainties around the demand for our personal loans, home loans and around the student loan refinance market in general, including as a result of worsening macroeconomic conditions, should be considered when assessing our future liquidity and solvency prospects. In the future, our loan origination volume and our resulting loan balances, and any positive cash flows thereof, could also be lower based on strategic decisions to tighten our credit standards.

In addition to our ability to pledge unencumbered loans against available warehouse capacity, we have relationships with whole loan buyers who have historically demonstrated strong demand for our loans. Securitization markets can also generate additional liquidity; however, financing through the securitization market could result in worse execution as compared to whole loans sales depending on market conditions and, in certain cases, we are required to maintain a minimum investment due to securitization risk retention rules.

Additionally, our securitization transactions require us to maintain a continuing financial interest in the form of securitization investments when we deconsolidate the SPE or in consolidation of the SPE when we have a significant financial interest. In either instance, the continuing financial interest requires us to maintain capital in the SPE that would otherwise be available to us if we had sold loans through a different channel.

As it relates to our securitization debt, the maturity of the notes issued by the various trusts occurs upon either the maturity of the loan collateral or full payment of the loan collateral held in the trusts, the timing of which cannot be reasonably estimated. Our own liquidity resources are not required to make any contractual payments on our securitization borrowings.

Our long-term liquidity strategy includes continuing to grow our SoFi bank deposit base, maintaining adequate warehouse capacity, maintaining corporate debt and other sources of financing, as well as effectively managing the capital raised through debt and equity transactions. Although our goal is to increase our cash flow from operations, there can be no assurance that our future operating plans will lead to improved operating cash flows.

The FDIA and FDIC regulations generally limit the ability of an insured depository institution to accept, renew or roll over any brokered deposit unless the institution’s capital category is “well capitalized” or, with the FDIC’s approval, “adequately capitalized.” See Part I, Item 1. “Government Supervision and Regulation—Brokered Deposits” for additional information. As of December 31, 2022, our regulatory capital ratios exceeded the thresholds required to be regarded as a well-capitalized institution, and meet all capital adequacy requirements to which we are subject.

On August 16, 2022, the Inflation Reduction Act (the "IRA"), was signed into law. The IRA enacted a 15% corporate book minimum tax and a 1% excise tax on stock repurchases effective after December 31, 2022. The IRA is not expected to have a material impact on our operations or cash flows for the foreseeable future.

Cash Flows from Operating Activities

For the year ended December 31, 2022, net cash used in operating activities of $7.3 billion stemmed from a net loss of $320.4 million and an unfavorable change in our operating assets net of operating liabilities of $7.5 billion, partially offset by a

111

TABLE OF CONTENTS

positive adjustment for non-cash items of $560.1 million. The change in operating assets net of operating liabilities was primarily a result of our loan origination and sales activities. We originated loans of $13.0 billion during the year and also purchased loans of $2.5 billion. These cash uses were largely offset by principal payments on loans of $3.1 billion and proceeds from loan sales of $4.9 billion.

For the year ended December 31, 2021, net cash used in operating activities of $1.4 billion stemmed from a net loss of $483.9 million and an unfavorable change in our operating assets net of operating liabilities of $1.3 billion, partially offset by a positive adjustment for non-cash items of $479.0 million. The change in operating assets net of operating liabilities was primarily a result of our loan origination and sales activities. We originated loans of $13.0 billion during the year and also purchased loans of $451.0 million. These cash uses were offset by principal payments on loans of $2.2 billion and proceeds from loan sales of $10.0 billion.

For the year ended December 31, 2020, net cash used in operating activities was $479.3 million, which stemmed from a net loss of $224.1 million and an unfavorable change in our operating assets net of operating liabilities of $397.3 million, partially offset by a positive adjustment for non-cash items of $142.0 million. The change in operating assets net of operating liabilities was primarily a result of our loan origination and sales activities. We originated loans of $9.7 billion during the year and also purchased loans of $690.2 million. These cash uses were largely offset by principal payments on loans of $1.9 billion and proceeds from loan sales of $8.0 billion.

Cash Flows from Investing Activities

For the year ended December 31, 2022, net cash used in investing activities of $106.3 million was primarily attributable to proceeds of $118.8 million from our securitization investments and the aggregate net cash acquired from the Technisys Merger and Bank Merger of $58.5 million. These sources were more than offset by net cash uses of $173.7 million related to loan activities, primarily driven by credit cards, $93.2 million for purchases of property, equipment and software, which primarily included internally-developed software and purchased software, as well as $10.5 million related to costs incurred in the development and enhancement of software to be sold, leased or marketed.

For the year ended December 31, 2021, net cash provided by investing activities of $110.2 million was primarily attributable to proceeds of $107.5 million from the call on our Apex equity method investment and $16.7 million from repayment of the outstanding principal balance on its related party notes, as well as proceeds of $247.1 million from our securitization investments. These cash proceeds were partially offset by $246.4 million of investments made in AFS debt securities, reduced by proceeds of $57.5 million from sales and maturities of these investments. Additionally, we made an equity method investment of $20.0 million during the third quarter of 2021. Lastly, we used cash of $52.3 million for purchases of property, equipment and software, which primarily included internally-developed software, purchased software, and furniture and fixtures.

For the year ended December 31, 2020, net cash provided by investing activities of $258.9 million was primarily attributable to proceeds from our securitization investments of $322.7 million, partially offset by our acquisition activities during the year, which resulted in a net use of cash of $32.4 million. Moreover, we extended additional financing to Apex during the year, which required a use of cash of $7.6 million. Lastly, we used $24.5 million for purchases of property, equipment and software.

Cash Flows from Financing Activities

For the year ended December 31, 2022, net cash provided by financing activities of $8.4 billion was primarily attributable to net cash sources from our SoFi Bank deposits of $7.2 billion. Additionally, our proceeds from debt financing activities of $0.4 billion exceeded our debt repayments of $0.5 billion, which were primarily related to our warehouse facilities. Our payments of debt issuance costs were in the normal course of business and reflective of our recurring debt warehouse facility activity, which involves securing new warehouse facilities and extending existing warehouse facilities. Finally, we paid redeemable preferred stock dividends of $40.4 million and taxes related to RSU vesting of $9.0 million.

For the year ended December 31, 2021, net cash provided by financing activities was $685.0 million. We received proceeds from the Business Combination and PIPE Investment of $2.0 billion, and paid costs directly related to the Business Combination and PIPE Investment of $27.0 million. We received $1.2 billion of proceeds from debt financing activities related to our lending activities and issuance of our Convertible Notes. These debt proceeds were more than offset by $0.9 billion of debt repayments, of which $9.5 billion were related to our warehouse facilities and $250 million were related to repayment of the seller note. We also had capped call purchases of $113.8 million in connection with the issuance of our Convertible Notes. Our payments of debt issuance costs were in the normal course of business and reflective of our recurring debt warehouse facility activity. We also received proceeds from warrant exercises of $95.0 million. We paid taxes related to RSU vesting of

112

$42.6 million, as well as redeemable preferred stock dividends of $40.4 million. We also received $25.2 million of proceeds from common stock option exercises. Finally, we paid $282.9 million to repurchase redeemable common and preferred stock.

For the year ended December 31, 2020, net cash provided by financing activities was $853.8 million. We received $0.5 billion of proceeds from debt financing activities, which were primarily attributable to our lending activities and included a $325.0 million draw on our revolving credit facility. These debt proceeds were partially offset by $1.1 billion of debt repayments, $8.6 billion of which were related to our warehouse facilities. Our payments of debt issuance costs were in the normal course of business and reflective of our recurring debt warehouse facility activity. We also generated cash of $369.8 million from a common stock issuance in the fourth quarter of 2020. We paid Series 1 redeemable preferred stock dividends of $40.5 million and taxes related to RSU vesting of $31.3 million. These uses were offset by principal repayments of $43.5 million related to our stockholder note receivable, which was fully paid off as of December 31, 2020.

Other Arrangements

We enter into arrangements in which we originate loans, establish an SPE and transfer loans to the SPE, which has historically served as an important source of liquidity. We also retain the servicing rights of the underlying loans and hold additional interests in the SPE. When an SPE is determined not to be a VIE or when an SPE is determined to be a VIE but we are not the primary beneficiary, the SPE is not consolidated. In addition, a significant change to the pertinent rights of other parties or our pertinent rights, or a significant change to the ranges of possible financial performance outcomes used in our assessment of the variability of cash flows due to us, could impact the determination of whether or not a VIE is consolidated. VIE consolidation and deconsolidation may lead to increased volatility in our financial results and impact period-over-period comparability. See Note 1 to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for our VIE consolidation policy.

Historically, we have established personal loan trusts and student loan trusts that were created and designed to transfer credit and interest rate risk associated with the underlying loans through the issuance of collateralized notes and residual certificates. We hold a variable interest in the trusts through our ownership of collateralized notes in the form of asset-backed bonds and residual certificates in the trusts. The residual certificates absorb variability and represent the equity ownership interest in the equity portion of the personal loan trusts and student loan trusts.

We are also the servicer for all trusts in which we hold a financial interest. Although we have the power as servicer to perform the activities that most impact the economic performance of the VIE, we do not hold a significant financial interest in the trusts and, therefore, we are not the primary beneficiary. Further, we do not provide financial support beyond our initial equity investment, and our maximum exposure to loss as a result of our involvement with nonconsolidated VIEs is limited to our investment. For a more detailed discussion of nonconsolidated VIEs, including related activity during the year, see Note 7 to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

Financial Condition Summary

Changes in the composition and balance of our assets and liabilities as of December 31, 2022 compared to December 31, 2021 were principally attributed to the following:

•an increase of $1.1 billion in cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents. See “Cash Flow and Liquidity Analysis” for further discussion of our cash flow activity;

•an increase in loans held for sale of $7.6 billion, which was primarily related to personal loans;

•an increase in goodwill of $724.5 million and an increase in intangible assets of $157.6 million, which were attributable to our two acquisitions during the first quarter of 2022. See Note 2 and Note 8 to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information;

•a decrease in securitization investments of $173.4 million, of which $118.8 million was related to cash receipts. There were no securitization investments made during 2022;

•an increase in deposits of $7.3 billion, which was attributable to our launch of SoFi Bank during the first quarter of 2022 and primarily included savings and demand deposits; and

•an increase of $1.4 billion in gross warehouse and risk retention facility debt to support our originations during the current period, which reflected the net impact of $10.7 billion of cash borrowings and $9.3 billion of cash repayments.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. In preparing our consolidated financial statements, we make judgments, estimates and assumptions that

113

SoFi Technologies, Inc.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

affect reported amounts of assets and liabilities, as well as revenues and expenses. We base our assumptions, judgments and estimates on historical experience and various other factors that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. The results involve judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results could differ materially from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. We regularly evaluate our estimates, assumptions and judgments, particularly those that include the most difficult, subjective or complex judgments and are often about matters that are inherently uncertain. See Note 1 to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for a summary of our significant accounting policies. The most significant judgments, estimates and assumptions relate to the critical accounting policies, which are discussed in detail below. We evaluate our critical accounting policies and estimates on an ongoing basis and update them as necessary based on changes in market conditions or factors specific to us.

Fair Value

Fair value is defined as the 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 use a three-level fair value hierarchy to classify and disclose all assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis in periods subsequent to their initial measurement. The hierarchy requires us to use observable inputs when available and to minimize the use of unobservable inputs when determining fair value. The three levels are defined as follows:

•Level 1 — Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities, accessible by us at the measurement date.

•Level 2 — Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, or quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, or observable inputs other than quoted prices.

•Level 3 — Unobservable inputs for assets or liabilities for which there is little or no market data, which requires us to develop our own assumptions. These unobservable assumptions reflect estimates of inputs that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. Valuation techniques include the use of option pricing models, discounted cash flow models, or similar techniques, which incorporate management’s own estimates of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.

A financial instrument’s categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Instruments are categorized in Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy based on the significance of unobservable factors in the overall fair value measurement. Our involvement with VIEs and origination of personal loans, student loans and home loans results in Level 2 and Level 3 assumptions having a material impact on our consolidated financial statements, as further discussed below. A third-party valuation specialist performs a valuation of these Level 2 and Level 3 financial instruments on a monthly basis with quarterly oversight by a Valuation Working Group established by the Company that comprises leaders across finance, capital markets and accounting.

Loans

We elected the fair value option to measure our personal loans, student loans and home loans, as we believe that fair value best reflects the expected economic performance of the loans, as well as our intentions given our primary gain-on-sale origination model. Loans do not trade in an active market with readily observable prices. We classify these loans as Level 3 because the valuations utilize significant unobservable inputs.

We determine the fair value of our loans using a discounted cash flow (“DCF”) calculation, which is a form of the income approach, while also considering market data as it becomes available. In applying the DCF methodology, we estimate the future cash flows of each loan portfolio using key loan metrics, such as term, vintage, coupon rate, coupon type and current balance, among others. The significant assumptions used in the valuation model include conditional prepayment rate, annual default rate and discount rate. The conditional prepayment rate represents the monthly annualized proportion of the principal of a pool of loans that is assumed to be paid off prematurely in each period. The annual default rate represents the annualized rate of borrowers who do not make loan payments on time. The conditional prepayment and annual default rate assumptions are determined using company-specific historical loan performance curves. The discount rate represents the weighted average rate at which the expected cash flows are discounted to arrive at the net present value of the loans. The discount rate is determined based on company-specific factors and market observations, including the federal funds rate, our weighted average coupon rate and expected duration of the assets, the last of which is also impacted by expected prepayment rates. We also consider the volume and terms of recent whole loan sales and securitization market pricing factors, as applicable, as indicators of loan fair values.

Securitizations

Loans in consolidated VIEs remain on our consolidated balance sheet and are measured at fair value using Level 3 inputs in a manner consistent with our non-securitization loans. Moreover, third-party residual claims on these loans are measured at fair value on a recurring basis and are presented as residual interests classified as debt in our consolidated balance sheet. We classify the residual interests classified as debt as Level 3 due to the reliance on significant unobservable valuation inputs. In Company-sponsored securitization transactions that meet the applicable criteria to be accounted for as a sale, we retain certain asset-backed bonds, which are measured at fair value on a recurring basis using Level 2 inputs, and residual investments, which are measured at fair value on a recurring basis using Level 3 inputs. These risk retention interests in nonconsolidated VIEs are referred to as securitization investments.

We determine the fair value of our residual interests classified as debt and our securitization investments using a DCF calculation, while also considering market data as it becomes available. In applying the DCF methodology, we estimate the future collateral cash flows using key securitization portfolio metrics, such as contractual payments and delinquency profile, among others. The significant assumptions used in the valuation model include conditional prepayment rate, annual default rate and discount rate. The conditional prepayment and annual default rate assumptions are determined using observed prepayment and default performance. The discount rate is determined based on market observations, such as secondary trading information, newly closed deals, benchmark rates and spread index, among others.

See “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk” for discussion of the sensitivity of our financial instruments measured at fair value to changes in various market risks.

Business Combinations

We account for acquisitions of entities or asset groups that qualify as businesses using the acquisition method of accounting. Purchase consideration is allocated to the tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on the estimated fair values as of the acquisition date, and which are typically determined in consultation with an independent appraiser. The determination of fair value requires management to make estimates about discount rates, future expected cash flows, market conditions and other future events that are highly subjective in nature. The judgments made in the determination of the estimated fair value assigned to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, as well as the estimated useful life of each asset and the duration of each liability, could significantly impact the consolidated financial statements in periods after the acquisition, such as through depreciation and amortization expense.

Management uses significant judgment to determine the fair value of intangible assets. For developed technology, management applies the Multi-Period Excess Earnings Method, which is a form of the income approach, for which the significant assumptions generally include expected earnings attributable to the asset (including an assumed technology migration curve), contributory asset charges and an assumed discount rate. For customer-related intangibles, management applies the With and Without Method, which is a form of the income approach, for which the significant assumptions generally include estimated annual revenues and net cash flows (including revenue ramp-up periods and customer attrition rates), and an assumed discount rate. For trade names, trademark and domain names, management applies the Relief from Royalty Method, which is a form of the income approach, for which the significant assumptions generally include expected earnings attributable to the asset, the probability of use of the asset, the royalty rate and an assumed discount rate. The assumed discount rates across the valuation methods reflect the risk of the asset relative to the overall risk of the acquired business. Definite-lived intangible assets are straight-line amortized over their useful lives and reviewed for impairment annually and whenever events or circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such assets may not be recoverable. During the year ended December 31, 2022, we did not recognize any impairment of definite-lived intangible assets.

The excess of the total purchase consideration over the fair value of the identified net assets acquired is recognized as goodwill. Acquisition-related costs are expensed as incurred. The results of operations for each acquisition are included in our consolidated financial results beginning on the respective acquisition date.

During the measurement period, which may be up to one year from the acquisition date, we may record adjustments to the allocation of purchase consideration and to the fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed to the extent that additional information becomes available. After this period, any subsequent adjustments are recorded in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss).

Goodwill

Goodwill represents the fair value of an acquired business in excess of the fair value of the identified net assets acquired. As of December 31, 2022, we had goodwill of $1.6 billion, of which $724.5 million was recognized during the year in connection with business combinations.

Goodwill is tested for impairment at the reporting unit level annually or whenever indicators of impairment exist. Impairment of goodwill is the condition that exists when the carrying amount of a reporting unit that includes goodwill exceeds its fair value. We may assess goodwill for impairment initially using a qualitative approach, referred to as “step zero”, to determine whether conditions exist to indicate that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. If management concludes, based on its assessment of relevant events, facts and circumstances that it is more likely than not that a reporting unit’s carrying value is greater than its fair value, then a quantitative analysis will be performed to determine if there is any impairment. We may alternatively elect to initially perform a quantitative assessment and bypass the qualitative assessment.

A goodwill impairment loss is recognized for the amount that the carrying amount of a reporting unit, including goodwill, exceeds its fair value, limited to the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. Therefore, if the fair value of a reporting unit exceeds its carrying amount, goodwill of the reporting unit is not impaired. Our reporting units for our goodwill impairment analysis represent components of our business at one level below our operating segments.

We performed the step zero assessment for two of our reporting units to which goodwill was allocated during the year in connection with business combinations. In performing this assessment, we evaluated factors such as macroeconomic conditions, industry and market conditions, cost factors, the overall financial performance of the reporting unit, and events specific to the reporting unit. Management concluded that, for each reporting unit, it was not more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting unit was less than its carrying amount. Therefore, we did not perform a quantitative assessment for these reporting units.

For each of our remaining reporting units, we performed a quantitative impairment assessment. Determining the fair value of a reporting unit requires the use of estimates and the exercise of significant judgment, which is inherently subjective in nature. For our quantitative goodwill impairment testing, we calculate the carrying amount of each reporting unit using a DCF calculation, which is a form of the income approach, or a combination of DCF and a market multiples calculation, which is a form of the market approach. In applying the DCF methodology, we estimate the future cash flows of each reporting unit using a multi-year forecast, and a terminal value calculated using a long-term growth rate that was informed based on our industry, analyst reports of a public company peer set, current and expected future economic conditions, and management expectations. The discount rates used to discount these future cash flows were determined using a capital asset pricing model based on the market value of equity of a public company peer set, adjusted for risk characteristics and expectations specific to the reporting unit. The discount rates used for our reporting units in our 2022 impairment analysis ranged from 15% to 20%, and we applied a terminal year long-term growth rate of 3.5% to all reporting units. In applying the market multiples methodology, we selected a company peer set based of competitors, publicly traded companies and reviews of analysts’ reports, public filings and industry research. In selecting the revenue and EBITDA multiples and determining the fair value, we consider the size, growth, profitability and risk profile of the reporting unit relative to the peer set.

Based on our 2022 impairment analysis, the estimated fair values of each of our reporting units were in excess of their carrying amounts. Therefore, we did not recognize any goodwill impairment during the year ended December 31, 2022.

Assumptions used in estimating the fair value of a reporting unit are highly judgmental and inherently uncertain. A change in the economic conditions of a reporting unit, such as declines in business performance from industry or macroeconomic trends or from company-specific factors, such as changes in our strategy, adverse impacts to deposit growth trends, losses of significant customers, decreases in revenue, increases in expenses, deterioration of market conditions, declines in long-term growth expectations, adverse impacts of regulatory or legislative changes or increases in the estimated cost of capital, including if these conditions are merely forecasted to occur in future periods, could cause the estimated fair values of our reporting units to decline in the future, and increase the risk of a goodwill impairment in a future period.

Social Finance, Inc. (“Social Finance”) entered into a merger agreement (the “Agreement”) with Social Capital Hedosophia Holdings Corp. V (“SCH”) on January 7, 2021. The transactions contemplated by the terms of the Agreement were completed on May 28, 2021 (the “Closing”), in conjunction with which SCH changed its name to SoFi Technologies, Inc. (hereafter referred to, collectively with its subsidiaries, as “SoFi”, the “Company”, “we”, “us” or “our”, unless the context otherwise requires). The transactions contemplated in the Agreement are collectively referred to as the “Business Combination”.

(1)Composed of in-school loans and student loan refinancing.

(2)Our SoFi Invest service is composed of three products: active investing accounts, robo-advisory accounts and digital assets accounts. SoFi Invest also includes our brokerage accounts through 8 Limited in Hong Kong.

We refer to our customers as “members”. We define a member as someone who has a lending relationship with us through origination and/or ongoing servicing, opened a financial services account, linked an external account to our platform, or signed up for our credit score monitoring service. Once someone becomes a member, they are always considered a member unless they violate our terms of service. Our members have continuous access to our certified financial planners (“CFPs”), our career advice services, our member events, our content, educational material, news, and our tools and calculators, which is provided at no cost to the member. Additionally, our mobile app and website have a member home feed that is personalized and delivers content to a member about what they must do that day in their financial life, what they should consider doing that day in their financial life, and what they can do that day in their financial life. Since our inception through December 31, 2021, we have served approximately 3.5 million members who have used approximately 5.2 million products on the SoFi platform.

Members
In Thousands

We offer our members a suite of financial products and services, enabling them to borrow, save, spend, invest and protect their finances within one integrated platform. Our aim is to create a best-in-class, integrated financial services platform that will generate a virtuous cycle whereby positive member experiences will lead to more products adopted per member and enhanced profitability for each additional product by lowering overall member acquisition costs and increasing the lifetime value of our members. We refer to this virtuous cycle as our “Financial Services Productivity Loop”.

We believe that developing a relationship with our members and gaining their trust is central to our success as a financial services platform. Through our mobile technology and continuous effort to improve our financial services products, we are seeking to build a financial services platform that members can access for all of their financial services needs.

We believe we are in the early stages of realizing the benefits of the Financial Services Productivity Loop. During the year ended December 31, 2021, approximately 600,000 members became multi-product members.

In addition to benefiting our members, our products and capabilities are also designed to appeal to enterprises, such as financial services institutions that subscribe to our enterprise services called SoFi At Work, and have become interconnected with the SoFi platform. While these enterprises are not considered members, they are important contributors to the growth of the SoFi platform, and also have their own constituents who might benefit from our products in the future. Further, Galileo has approximately 100 million total accounts on its platform (including SoFi accounts) as of December 31, 2021. Galileo started contributing new accounts to the SoFi ecosystem during the second quarter of 2020.

National Bank Charter.  A key element of our long-term strategy has been to secure a national bank charter. In February 2022, we acquired Golden Pacific pursuant to the “Bank Merger”, pursuant to which we acquired all of the outstanding equity interests in Golden Pacific and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Golden Pacific Bank, for total cash purchase consideration of $22.3 million. Upon closing the Bank Merger, we became a bank holding company and Golden Pacific Bank began operating as SoFi Bank. Golden Pacific’s community bank business will continue to operate as a division of SoFi Bank.

In order to be compliant with all applicable regulations, to operate to the satisfaction of the banking regulators, and to successfully execute our business plan for SoFi Bank, we have built out and continue to expand the required infrastructure to run SoFi Bank and to operate as a bank holding company. This effort spans our people and organization, technology, marketing/product management, risk management, compliance, and control functions. We incurred direct costs associated with securing our national bank charter of $17.0 million during the year ended December 31, 2021 and $3.7 million during the year ended December 31, 2020, which consisted primarily of professional fees and compensation and benefits costs.

We have begun to transfer SoFi Money products to SoFi Bank and intend to continue to transfer our SoFi Money, lending, and SoFi Credit Card products to SoFi Bank over time. We have begun to allow existing members to convert their SoFi Money cash management accounts into deposit accounts held at SoFi Bank. Further, we expect to begin accepting new loan applications and originating new loans within SoFi Bank over time.

IPO Investment Center.    Through our FINRA-registered broker-dealer subsidiary, SoFi Securities LLC (“SoFi Securities”), we are licensed to underwrite securities offerings. In March 2021, we launched an initial public offering (“IPO”) investment center that allows members with a SoFi active invest account to invest in initial public offerings. Through this offering, we earn underwriting fees for participating in the underwriting syndicate for IPO deals, or we recognize dealer fees for

providing dealer services in partnership with underwriting syndicates for IPOs. Together, these services are referred to as “equity capital markets services”. During the year ended December 31, 2021, we recognized revenue of $2.6 million within noninterest income—other in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss) associated with our IPO Investment Center services.

Our Reportable Segments

We conduct our business through three reportable segments: Lending, Technology Platform and Financial Services. See Item 1 “Business—Our Products” for a discussion of our segments, their corresponding products and the ways in which those products generate revenues and/or incur expenses for the Company.

COVID-19 Pandemic

On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization designated the novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”) as a global pandemic. Although the long-term effects of the COVID-19 pandemic globally and in the United States remain unknown and consumer activity began to recover and many government mandates to restrict daily activities were lifted, worker shortages, supply chain issues, inflationary pressures, vaccine and testing requirements, the emergence of new variants and the reinstatement of restrictions and health and safety related measures in response to the emergence of new variants, such as the Delta and Omicron variants, contributed to the volatility of ongoing recovery. There can be no assurance that economic recovery will continue or that consumer behavior will return to pre-pandemic levels. Through our business continuity program, which was expanded in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, we continue to monitor the recommendations and protocols published by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (“CDC”) and the World Health Organization, as well as state and local governments, and to communicate with employees on a regular basis to provide updated information and corporate policies. Since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, we have taken a number of measures to proactively support our members, applicants for new loans and employees.

Members:   We have and will continue to approach hardship programs from a member-first perspective. In addition to our Unemployment Protection Plan, which remains available to all eligible members, we launched comprehensive forbearance programs that provided meaningful FEMA disaster hardship relief. We discontinued enrollment in our COVID-19 forbearance programs, which were designed to be temporary in nature, for personal loans and student loans on March 31, 2021 and April 30, 2021, respectively. Although enrollment in COVID-19 forbearance programs for home loans remains open, new requests remain low and are primarily related to extensions of existing forbearance. There were no personal loans or student loans in this category as of December 31, 2021 due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Subject to eligibility, members may participate in other customary hardship programs.

Applicants: In response to deteriorating economic conditions and market uncertainty amid the COVID-19 pandemic, in 2020 we proactively executed our recession readiness credit risk strategies, which included introducing elevated credit eligibility requirements for personal loans, thorough validation of income and income continuity, and limiting loan amounts. Throughout the first half of 2021, we adapted our elevated credit eligibility requirements for personal loans through phases of reopening following our metric-driven, return-to-normalcy action plan. Additionally, in the third quarter of 2021, we implemented a proprietary Recession Early Warning System (“REWS”), which applies a set of internal and external indicators to assist us in closely monitoring economic conditions and to be more proactive and agile in taking decisive credit actions in the event of an economic downturn. REWS is currently enabled for personal loans only, as it is a product with higher credit risk.

Employees: In order to safeguard the health and safety of our team members and their families, we virtualized our entire organization beginning in March 2020. We offer, and plan to continue to offer, all of our employees the choice of working full time in the office, a hybrid approach, or full-time remote. Coming into the office remains 100% voluntary, unless a person’s role requires them to be on site to do their job. We will continue to align our office protocols with evolving CDC, state and local guidelines to continue to safeguard the health and safety of our team members and their families.

See Item 1A “Risk Factors—COVID-19 Pandemic Risks” for additional discussion of the risks and uncertainties associated with the repercussions of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Executive Overview

The following tables display key financial measures for our three reportable segments and our consolidated company that are used, along with our key business metrics, by management to evaluate our business, measure our performance, identify trends and make strategic decisions. Contribution profit (loss) is the primary measure of segment-level profit and loss reviewed by management and is defined as total net revenue for each reportable segment less expenses directly attributable to the corresponding reportable segment and, in the case of our Lending segment, adjusted for fair value adjustments attributable to assumption changes associated with our servicing rights and residual interests classified as debt. See “Results of Operations”, “Summary Results by Segment” and “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” herein for discussion and analysis of these key financial measures.

_________________

(1)Adjusted net revenue within our Lending segment is used by management to evaluate our Lending segment and our consolidated results. For our Lending segment, total net revenue is adjusted to exclude the fair value changes in servicing rights and residual interests classified as debt due to valuation inputs and assumption changes (including conditional prepayment and default and discount rates). We use this adjusted measure in our determination of contribution profit in the Lending segment, as well as to evaluate our consolidated results, as it removes non-cash charges that are not realized during the period and, therefore, do not impact the cash available to fund our operations, and our overall liquidity position. For our Technology Platform and Financial Services segments, there are no adjustments from total net revenue to arrive at the consolidated adjusted net revenue shown in this table.

(2)Adjusted net revenue and adjusted EBITDA are non-GAAP financial measures. For information regarding our uses and definitions of these measures and for reconciliations to the most directly comparable U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) measures, see “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” herein.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

(3)Technology Platform segment total net revenue for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 includes $1,863 and $686, respectively, of intercompany technology platform fees earned by Galileo from SoFi, which is a Galileo client. There is an equal and offsetting expense reflected within the Financial Services segment contribution loss representing the intercompany technology platform fees incurred to Galileo. The intercompany revenue and expense are eliminated in consolidation. The revenue is eliminated within “Other” and the expense represents a reconciling item of segment contribution profit (loss) to consolidated loss before income taxes. The prior year information was recast to conform to the current year presentation. See Note 18 to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.

(4)“Other” primarily includes total net revenue associated with corporate functions, non-recurring gains from non-securitization investment activities and interest income and realized gains and losses associated with investments in available-for-sale (“AFS”) debt securities, all of which are not directly related to a reportable segment. For further discussion, see Note 18 to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

Key Recent Developments

We continue to execute on our growth and other strategic initiatives and, in doing so, we have celebrated launches across our product suite and strategic partnerships, establishing ourselves as a platform that enables individuals to borrow, save, spend, invest, and protect their assets. Some of our key recent achievements are discussed below.

In February 2022, we entered into the Technisys Merger. Technisys is a cloud-native digital and core banking platform with an existing footprint of established banks, digital banks and fintechs in Latin America. See Note 2 to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information on the Technisys Merger.

In February 2022, we closed the Bank Merger, after which we became a bank holding company and Golden Pacific Bank began operating as SoFi Bank. Following the Bank Merger, we have begun to transfer SoFi Money products to SoFi Bank and intend to continue to transfer our SoFi Money, lending, and SoFi Credit Card products to SoFi Bank over time. We believe operating a national bank will allow us to provide members and prospective members broader and more competitive options across their financial services needs, including deposit accounts, and lower our cost to fund loans (by utilizing our members’ deposits held at SoFi Bank to fund our loans), which we expect will enable us to offer lower interest rates on loans to members as well as offer higher interest rates on member deposit accounts. See “Business Overview—National Bank Charter” herein, as well as Item 1 “Business—Company Overview—National Bank Charter” and Note 2 to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information on our regulatory approval process and the Bank Merger.

In January 2021, Social Finance entered into the Agreement by and among SoFi, SCH, and Plutus Merger Sub Inc. The transactions contemplated by the terms of the Agreement were completed on May 28, 2021, upon which SoFi survived the merger and became a wholly owned subsidiary of SCH, which concurrently changed its name to “SoFi Technologies, Inc.” On June 1, 2021, shares of SoFi Technologies’ common stock and SoFi Technologies’ warrants began trading on the Nasdaq under the symbols “SOFI” and “SOFIW”, respectively, in lieu of the ordinary shares, warrants and units of SCH. See Note 2 to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information on the transaction. The SoFi Technologies warrants ceased trading on the Nasdaq and were delisted following their redemption on December 6, 2021.

In September 2020, we celebrated the official opening of SoFi Stadium associated with the establishment in September 2019 of a 20-year partnership with LA Stadium and Entertainment District at Hollywood Park in Inglewood, California, a multi-purpose sports and entertainment district that serves as the stadium for the National Football League teams the Los Angeles Chargers and Los Angeles Rams. SoFi's partnership with the owner of the LA Stadium and Entertainment District at Hollywood Park (“StadCo”) provides SoFi with exclusive naming rights of the stadium and official partnerships with the Los Angeles Chargers and Los Angeles Rams and with the performance venue, which shares a roof with the stadium, and the surrounding planned entertainment district, which is anticipated to include office space, retail space and hotel and dining options. The 20-year partnership, across the naming rights and sponsorship agreements, collectively requires SoFi to pay sponsorship fees quarterly in each contract year for an aggregate total of $625.0 million. See Note 16 to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for discussion of an associated contingent matter.

In May 2020, we completed our acquisition of Galileo for a purchase price of $1.2 billion. Galileo provides technology platform services to financial and non-financial institutions.

In April 2020, we acquired 8 Limited, a Hong Kong based investment business, for a purchase price of $16.1 million. Our acquisition of 8 Limited marked our first expansion outside the United States and enables our non-United States members to experience many of the product features we have developed in the United States for SoFi Invest, including non-digital assets trading.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Our management and Board of Directors use adjusted net revenue and adjusted EBITDA, which are non-GAAP financial measures, to evaluate our operating performance, formulate business plans, help better assess our overall liquidity position, and make strategic decisions, including those relating to operating expenses and the allocation of internal resources.

78

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Accordingly, we believe that adjusted net revenue and adjusted EBITDA provide useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating our operating results in the same manner as our management and Board of Directors.

Adjusted Net Revenue

Adjusted net revenue is defined as total net revenue, adjusted to exclude the fair value changes in servicing rights and residual interests classified as debt due to valuation inputs and assumptions changes, which relate only to our Lending segment. We adjust total net revenue to exclude these items, as they are non-cash charges that are not realized during the period, and therefore positive or negative changes do not impact the cash available to fund our operations. This measure helps provide our management with an understanding of the net revenue available to finance our operations and helps management better decide on the proper expenses to authorize for each of our operating segments, to ultimately help achieve target contribution profit margins. Therefore, the measure of adjusted net revenue serves as both the starting point for how we think about the liquidity generated from our operations and also the starting point for our annual financial planning, the latter of which focuses on the cash we expect to generate from our operating segments to help fund the current year’s strategic objectives. Adjusted net revenue has limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, the analysis of other GAAP financial measures, such as total net revenue. The primary limitation of adjusted net revenue is its lack of comparability to other companies that do not utilize this measure or that use a similar measure that is defined in a different manner.

Annual Adjusted Net Revenue

We reconcile adjusted net revenue to total net revenue, the most directly comparable GAAP measure, as presented below for the years indicated:

__________________

(1)Reflects changes in fair value inputs and assumptions on servicing rights, including conditional prepayment and default rates and discount rates. These assumptions are highly sensitive to market interest rate changes and are not indicative of our performance or results of operations. Moreover, these non-cash charges are unrealized during the period and, therefore, have no impact on our cash flows from operations. As such, these positive and negative changes are adjusted out of total net revenue to provide management and financial users with better visibility into the net revenue available to finance our operations and our overall performance.

(2)Reflects changes in fair value inputs and assumptions on residual interests classified as debt, including conditional prepayment and default rates and discount rates. When third parties finance our consolidated securitization variable interest entities (“VIEs”) by purchasing residual interests, we receive proceeds at the time of the closing of the securitization and, thereafter, pass along contractual cash flows to the residual interest owner. These residual debt obligations are measured at fair value on a recurring basis, but they have no impact on our initial financing proceeds, our future obligations to the residual interest owner (because future residual interest claims are limited to contractual securitization collateral cash flows), or the general operations of our business. As such, these positive and negative non-cash changes in fair value attributable to assumption changes are adjusted out of total net revenue to provide management and financial users with better visibility into the net revenue available to finance our operations.

Adjusted EBITDA

Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income (loss), adjusted to exclude: (i) corporate borrowing-based interest expense (our adjusted EBITDA measure is not adjusted for warehouse or securitization-based interest expense, nor deposit interest expense and finance lease liability interest expense, as discussed further below), (ii) income tax expense (benefit), (iii) depreciation and amortization, (iv) share-based expense (inclusive of equity-based payments to non-employees), (v) impairment expense (inclusive of goodwill impairment and property, equipment and software abandonments), (vi) transaction-related expenses, (vii) fair value changes in warrant liabilities, and (viii) fair value changes in each of servicing rights and residual interests classified as debt due to valuation assumptions. We believe adjusted EBITDA provides a useful measure for period-over-period comparisons of our business, as it removes the effect of certain non-cash items and certain charges that are not indicative of our core operating performance or results of operations. It is also a measure that management relies upon to evaluate cash flows generated from operations, and therefore the extent of additional capital, if any, required to invest in strategic initiatives. Adjusted EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, the analysis of other GAAP financial measures, such as net income (loss). Some of the limitations of adjusted EBITDA include that it does not reflect the impact of working capital requirements or capital expenditures and it is not a universally consistent calculation among companies in our industry, which limits its usefulness as a comparative measure.

___________________

(1)Our adjusted EBITDA measure adjusts for corporate borrowing-based interest expense, as these expenses are a function of our capital structure. Corporate borrowing-based interest expense primarily included (i) interest on our revolving credit facility, (ii) amortization of debt discount and debt issuance costs on our convertible notes, and (iii) interest on the seller note issued in connection with our acquisition of Galileo. Our adjusted EBITDA measure does not adjust for interest expense on warehouse facilities and securitization debt, which are recorded within interest expense—securitizations and warehouses in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss), as these interest expenses are direct operating expenses driven by loan origination and sales activity. Additionally, our adjusted EBITDA measure does not adjust for interest expense on SoFi Money deposits or interest expense on our finance lease liability in connection with SoFi Stadium, which are recorded within interest expense—other, as these interest expenses are direct operating expenses driven by SoFi Money deposits and finance leases, respectively. The fluctuations in interest expense were impacted by interest expense on the Galileo seller note, which was issued in May 2020 and repaid in February 2021, as well as the amortization of debt discount and debt issuance costs on our convertible notes, which were issued in October 2021. Revolving credit facility interest expense decreased modestly during 2021 relative to 2020, as a higher average balance in 2021 was more than offset by a decrease in LIBOR, and increased during 2020 relative to 2019 primarily due to a higher average balance following the acquisition of Galileo.

(2)Our income tax expense positions in 2021 and 2019 were primarily a function of SoFi Lending Corp.’s profitability in state jurisdictions where separate filings are required. Our income tax benefit position in 2020 was primarily due to a partial release of our valuation allowance in the second quarter in connection with deferred tax liabilities resulting from intangible assets acquired from Galileo in May 2020. See Note 14 to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.

(3)Depreciation and amortization expense for 2021 increased compared to 2020 primarily due to the amortization of intangible assets recognized during the second quarter of 2020 associated with the Galileo and 8 Limited acquisitions, amortization of purchased and internally-developed software, and depreciation related to SoFi Stadium fixed assets, partially offset by a decrease related to the acceleration of core banking infrastructure amortization. Depreciation and amortization expense for 2020 compared to 2019 increased primarily due to amortization expense on intangible assets acquired during the second quarter of 2020 from Galileo and 8 Limited, acceleration of core banking infrastructure amortization, and amortization of purchased and internally-developed software.

(4)Impairment expense in 2019 primarily includes software abandonment.

81

TABLE OF CONTENTS

(5)Transaction-related expenses during 2021 included a $21.2 million special payment to the Series 1 preferred stockholders in conjunction with the Business Combination and financial advisory and professional costs associated with transactions that occurred during the period. We incurred such costs as follows: (i) $2.2 million related to our acquisition of Golden Pacific Bank, (ii) $3.3 million related to a recently announced acquisition, and (iii) $0.6 million related to debt and equity transactions, including our convertible debt, capped call and secondary offering on behalf of certain investors. During 2020, transaction-related expenses included certain costs, such as financial advisory and professional services costs, associated with our acquisitions of Galileo and 8 Limited.

(6)Our adjusted EBITDA measure excludes the non-cash fair value changes in warrants accounted for as liabilities, which were measured at fair value through earnings. The amounts in 2019 and 2020, as well as a portion of 2021, related to changes in the fair value of Series H warrants issued by Social Finance in 2019 in connection with certain redeemable preferred stock issuances. We did not measure the Series H warrants at fair value subsequent to May 28, 2021 in conjunction with the Business Combination, as they were reclassified into permanent equity. In addition, in conjunction with the Business Combination, SoFi Technologies assumed certain common stock warrants (“SoFi Technologies warrants”) that were accounted for as liabilities and measured at fair value on a recurring basis. The fair value of the SoFi Technologies warrants was based on the closing price of ticker SOFIW and, therefore, fluctuated based on market activity. The vast majority of outstanding SoFi Technologies warrants were exercised during the fourth quarter of 2021, and therefore the Company incurred gains and losses associated with fair value changes until the warrant liabilities converted into SoFi common stock. The remaining unexercised warrants were redeemed at a redemption price of $0.10 on December 6, 2021. See Note 9 to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.

(7)Reflects changes in fair value inputs and assumptions, including market servicing costs, conditional prepayment and default rates and discount rates. This non-cash change is unrealized during the period and, therefore, has no impact on our cash flows from operations. As such, these positive and negative changes in fair value attributable to assumption changes are adjusted out of net loss to provide management and financial users with better visibility into the earnings available to finance our operations.

(8)Reflects changes in fair value inputs and assumptions, including conditional prepayment and default rates and discount rates. When third parties finance our consolidated VIEs through purchasing residual interests, we receive proceeds at the time of the securitization close and, thereafter, pass along contractual cash flows to the residual interest owner. These obligations are measured at fair value on a recurring basis, which has no impact on our initial financing proceeds, our future obligations to the residual interest owner (because future residual interest claims are limited to contractual securitization collateral cash flows), or the general operations of our business. As such, these positive and negative non-cash changes in fair value attributable to assumption changes are adjusted out of net loss to provide management and financial users with better visibility into the earnings available to finance our operations.

We reconcile adjusted EBITDA to net income (loss), the most directly comparable GAAP measure, for the quarterly periods indicated below:

__________________

(1)Beginning in the fourth quarter of 2021, we included SoFi accounts on the Galileo platform-as-a-service in our total accounts metric to better align with the Technology Platform segment revenue reported in Note 18 to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. Intercompany revenue is eliminated in consolidation. We recast the total accounts as of December 31, 2020 to conform to the current year presentation, which resulted in an increase of 375,367 in total accounts as of such date.

See “Summary Results by Segment” for additional metrics we review at the segment level.

Members

We refer to our customers as “members”, which we define as someone who has a lending relationship with us through origination and/or ongoing servicing, opened a financial services account, linked an external account to our platform, or signed up for our credit score monitoring service. See “Business Overview”. We view members as an indication not only of the size and a measurement of growth of our business, but also as a measure of the significant value of the data we have collected over time. The data we collect from our members helps us to, among other things: (i) assess loan life performance data on each loan in our ecosystem, which can inform risk-based interest rates that we can offer our members, (ii) understand our members’ spending behavior to identify and suggest other products we offer that may align with the members’ financial needs, and (iii) enhance our opportunities to sell additional products to our members, as our members represent a vital source of marketing opportunities. When we provide additional products to members, it helps improve our unit economics per member, as we save on marketing costs that we would otherwise incur to attract new members. It also increases the lifetime value of an individual member. This in turn enhances our Financial Services Productivity Loop. Member growth is generally an indicator of future revenue, but is not directly correlated with revenues, since not all members who sign up for one of our products fully utilize or continue to use our products, and not all of our products (such as our complimentary product, SoFi Relay) provide direct sources of revenue.

Total Products

Total products refers to the aggregate number of lending and financial services products that our members have selected on our platform since our inception through the reporting date, whether or not the members are still registered for such products. In our Lending segment, total products refers to the number of home loans, personal loans and student loans that have been originated through our platform through the reporting date, whether or not such loans have been paid off. If a member has multiple loan products of the same loan product type, such as two personal loans, that is counted as a single product. However, if a member has multiple loan products across loan product types, such as one personal loan and one home loan, that is counted as two products. In our Financial Services segment, total products refers to the number of SoFi Money accounts, SoFi Invest accounts, SoFi Credit Card accounts (including accounts with a zero dollar balance at the reporting date), referred loans (which relate to an arrangement in the third quarter of 2021 and are originated by a third-party partner to which we provide pre-qualified borrower referrals), SoFi At Work accounts and SoFi Relay accounts (with either credit score monitoring enabled or external linked accounts) that have been opened through our platform through the reporting date. Our SoFi Invest service is composed of three products: active investing accounts, robo-advisory accounts and digital assets accounts. Our members can select any one or combination of the three types of SoFi Invest products. If a member has multiple SoFi Invest products of the same account type, such as two active investing accounts, that is counted as a single product. However, if a member has multiple SoFi Invest products across account types, such as one active investing account and one robo-advisory account, those separate account types are considered separate products. Total products is a primary indicator of the size and reach of our Lending and Financial Services segments. Management relies on total products metrics to understand the effectiveness of our member acquisition efforts and to gauge the propensity for members to use more than one product.

Technology Platform Total Accounts

In our Technology Platform segment, total accounts refers to the number of open accounts at Galileo as of the reporting date. Beginning in the fourth quarter of 2021, we included SoFi accounts on the Galileo platform-as-a-service in our total accounts metric to better align with the Technology Platform segment revenue reported in Note 18 to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, which includes intercompany revenue from SoFi. Intercompany revenue is eliminated in consolidation. We recast the total accounts as of December 31, 2020 to conform to the current year presentation. No total accounts information is reported prior to our acquisition of Galileo on May 14, 2020. Total accounts is a primary indicator of the accounts dependent upon Galileo’s technology platform to use virtual card products, virtual wallets, make peer-to-peer and bank-to-bank transfers, receive early paychecks, separate savings from spending balances, make debit transactions and rely upon real-time authorizations, all of which result in technology platform fees for the Technology Platform segment.

Key Factors Affecting Operating Results

Our future operating results and cash flows are dependent upon a number of opportunities, challenges and other factors, including our loan origination volume, financial services products and member activity on our platform, growth in

84

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Galileo accounts, competition and industry trends, general economic conditions and our ability to optimize our national bank charter.

Origination Volume

Our Lending segment is our largest segment, comprising 75%, 85% and 98% of total net revenue during the years ended December 31, 2021, 2020 and 2019, respectively. We are dependent upon the addition of new members and new activity from existing members within our Lending segment to generate origination volume, which we believe is a contributor to Lending segment net revenue. We believe we have a high-quality loan portfolio, as indicated by our Lending segment weighted average origination FICO score of 761 during the year ended December 31, 2021. See “Industry Trends and General Economic Conditions” for the impact of specific economic factors, including those resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic, on origination volume.

Member Growth and Activity

We have invested heavily in our platform and are dependent on continued member growth, as well as our ability to generate additional revenues from our existing members using additional products and services. Member growth and activity is critical to our ability to increase our scale and earn a return on our technology and product investments. Growth in members and member activity will depend heavily on our ability to continue to offer attractive products and services at sustainable costs and our continued member acquisition and marketing efforts.

Product Growth

Our aim is to develop and offer a best-in-class integrated financial services platform with products that meet the broad objectives of our members and the lifecycle of their financial needs. We have invested, and continue to invest, heavily in the development, improvement and marketing of our suite of lending and financial services products and are dependent on continued growth in the number of products selected by our members, as well as our ability to build trust and reliability between our members and our platform to reinforce the effects of the Financial Services Productivity Loop. In order to deliver on our strategy, we aim to foster positive member experiences designed to lead to more products per member, leading to enhanced profitability for each additional product by lowering overall member acquisition costs.

Galileo Account Growth

During 2020, we acquired Galileo, which primarily provides technology platform services to financial and non-financial institutions, to enable us to diversify our business from a primarily consumer-based business to also serve enterprises that rely upon Galileo’s integrated platform-as-a-service to serve their clients. We are dependent on growth in the number of accounts at Galileo, which is an indication of the amount of users that are dependent upon the technology platform for a variety of products and services, including virtual card products, virtual wallets, peer-to-peer and bank-to-bank transfers, early paychecks and relying on real-time authorizations, all of which generate revenue for Galileo.

Competition

We face competition from several financial services institutions given our status as a diversified financial services provider and bank holding company. In each of our reportable segments, we may compete with more established financial institutions, some of which have more financial resources than we do. We compete at multiple levels, including competition among other personal loan, student loan, credit card and residential mortgage lenders, competition for deposits from other banks and non-bank lenders, competition for investment accounts in our SoFi Invest product from other brokerage firms, including those based on online or mobile platforms, competition for subscribers to our financial services content, and competition with other technology platforms for the enterprise services we provide. Some of our competitors may at times seek to increase their market share by undercutting pricing terms prevalent in that market, which could adversely affect our market share for any of our products and services or require us to incur higher member acquisition costs. Furthermore, our competitors could offer relatively attractive benefits to our current members, which could limit members using more than one product. See “Business—Competition” for more information.

Industry Trends and General Economic Conditions

Our results of operations have historically been relatively resilient to economic downturns but in the future may be impacted by the relative strength of the overall economy and its effect on unemployment, asset markets and consumer spending. As general economic conditions improve or deteriorate, the amount of consumer disposable income tends to fluctuate, which in turn impacts consumer spending levels and the willingness of consumers to take out loans to finance purchases or invest in financial assets. Specific economic factors, such as interest rate levels, changes in monetary and related policies, unemployment

85

TABLE OF CONTENTS

rates, market volatility, consumer confidence and changing expectations for inflation and deflation, also influence consumer spending, saving, investing and borrowing patterns. Increased focus by policymakers and the current presidential administration on outstanding student loans has led to discussions of potential legislative and regulatory actions, among other possible steps, to reduce outstanding balances of loans, or cancel loans at a significant scale, including the potential forgiveness of federal student debt. Such actions resulting in forgiveness or cancellation at a meaningful scale would likely have an adverse impact on our results of operations and overall business.

Additionally, our business has been, and may continue to be, impacted by some of the national measures taken to counteract the economic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. For example, the CARES Act and subsequent extensions of certain hardship provisions led to decreased demand for our student loan refinancing products amid emerging signs of economic recovery from the pandemic. The Federal Reserve’s actions to reduce interest rates to near-zero benchmark levels during 2020 that were sustained during 2021 led to increased demand for home loan refinancing and we believe increased the attractiveness of our SoFi Invest product, as members looked for alternative ways to earn higher returns on their cash. Conversely, these lower benchmark rates reduced the deposit interest rates we could offer on our SoFi Money product, which we believe adversely impacted demand for the product. In its January 2022 meeting, the Federal Reserve signaled that the first of potentially several interest rate increases could occur in March 2022. We anticipate that in a rising interest rate environment, and operating under a bank charter, we will be able to offer more competitive interest rates to our members on their deposits, which we believe would result in increasing demand for the product. However, rising interest rates could unfavorably impact demand for all refinancing loan activities and reduce demand across student loans, personal loans and mortgage loans, including but not limited to any variable-rate loan products.

National Bank Charter

A key element of our long-term strategy has been to secure a national bank charter. In February 2022, we closed the Bank Merger and began operating Golden Pacific Bank as SoFi Bank. See “Business Overview—National Bank Charter” and Note 2 to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information on our regulatory approval process and the Bank Merger. In connection with operating a national bank, we have incurred and expect to continue to incur additional costs primarily associated with headcount, technology infrastructure, governance, compliance and risk management, marketing, and other general and administrative expenses.

The key expected financial benefits to us of operating a national bank include: (i) lowering our cost to fund loans, as we can utilize member deposits held at SoFi Bank to fund loans, which have a lower borrowing cost of funds than our current financing model, (ii) holding loans on our consolidated balance sheet for longer periods, thereby enabling us to earn interest on these loans for a longer period, and (iii) supporting origination volume growth by providing an alternative financing option, while also maintaining our warehouse capacity. See Item 1A “Risk Factors” for discussion of certain potential risks related to being a bank holding company.

Key Components of Results of Operations

Interest Income

Interest income is predominantly driven by loan origination volume, prevailing interest rates that we receive on the loans we make and the amount of time we hold loans on our consolidated balance sheet. Securitizations interest income is driven by our securitization-related investments in bonds and residual interest positions, which are required under securitization risk retention rules. See Note 1 to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information on our securitization-related investments. Beginning in the third quarter of 2021, other interest income also includes the interest earned on investments in available-for-sale (“AFS”) debt securities as well as amortization of premiums and discounts and other basis adjustments associated with the investments. Moreover, we earn other interest income on excess corporate cash balances and SoFi Money member balances. Related party interest income was derived from notes extended to Apex and one of our stockholders, and was not core to our operations. We had no outstanding related party notes as of December 31, 2021.

Interest Expense

Interest expense primarily includes interest we incur under our warehouse facilities, inclusive of the amortization of debt issuance costs, and under our securitization debt, inclusive of debt issuance costs, premiums and discounts. We incur securitization-related interest expense when securitization transfers do not qualify as true sales pursuant to ASC 810, Consolidation. Securitization-related interest expense fluctuates depending on the level of our securitization activity, market rates and whether and how much such activity results in true sale treatment. We also incurred interest expense related to our revolving credit facility, on the seller note issued in connection with our acquisition of Galileo in May 2020, which was fully

86

TABLE OF CONTENTS

repaid in February 2021, on the other financings assumed in the acquisition, which were repaid in July 2021, as well as on our convertible notes issued in October 2021 in the form of amortization of debt issuance costs and original issue discount.

For our residual interests classified as debt, we recognize interest expense over the expected life using the effective yield method, which represents a portion of the overall fair value change in the residual interests classified as debt. On a quarterly basis, we reevaluate the cash flow estimates to determine if a change to the accretable yield is required on a prospective basis, which is a reclassification between two income statement line items, and therefore has no net impact on earnings. We also pay interest income to our members who have SoFi Money account balances, which is interest expense to us. Interest expense is dependent on market interest rates (such as USD LIBOR, SOFR or other representative alternative reference rates, commercial paper rates, and the prime rate), interest rate spreads versus benchmark rates, the amount of warehouse capacity we can access, warehouse advance rates and the amount of loans we ultimately pledge to our warehouse facilities. Finally, we incur interest on our finance lease liabilities associated with SoFi Stadium, which relate to certain physical signage within the stadium. Our interest expense has historically fluctuated due to changes in the interest rate environment, and we expect it will continue to fluctuate in future periods.

Noninterest Income

Noninterest income primarily consists of: (i) fair value changes in loans while we hold them on our consolidated balance sheet, inclusive of our hedging activities; (ii) gains on sales of loans transferred into the securitization or whole loan sale channels; (iii) the income we receive from our loan servicing activities, as well as the assumption of servicing rights from third parties; (iv) fair value changes related to our securitization activities; (v) revenue recognized pursuant to ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”), which primarily relates to our technology platform fees; (vi) realized gains and losses on investments in AFS debt securities, and (vii) gains and losses on non-securitization investments.

When we originate a loan, we generally expect that we will sell the loan for more than its par value, which will result in positive loan origination and sales results. Moreover, noninterest income—loan origination and sales also includes recognized servicing assets at the time of a loan sale. The subsequent measurement of our servicing assets at fair value, as well as the initial and ongoing measurement of servicing rights assumed from third parties, impact noninterest income—servicing in our consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss). When we sell a loan into a securitization trust that qualifies for true sale accounting, the gain or loss on sale is recorded within noninterest income—loan origination and sales. Noninterest income—securitizations is impacted by fair value changes in securitization loan collateral, which is impacted by the change in fair value of the loan collateral from the previous period end, residual interests classified as debt and our securitization investments associated with our continuing interest in the securitization subsequent to the sale. Our revenue recognized in accordance with ASC 606 is attributable to our Financial Services and Technology Platform segments and has grown due to our acquisitions of Galileo and 8 Limited during 2020, as well as due to the growth and expansion of our financial services offerings.

Noninterest Expense

Noninterest expense primarily relates to the following categories of expenses: (i) technology and product development, (ii) sales and marketing, (iii) cost of operations, and (iv) general and administrative. Certain costs are included within each of these line items, such as compensation and benefits-related expense (inclusive of share-based compensation expense), professional services, depreciation and amortization, and occupancy-related costs. We allocate certain costs to each of these four categories based on department-level headcounts. We generally expect the expenses within each such category to increase in absolute dollars as our business continues to grow. Noninterest expense—general and administrative also includes the fair value changes in warrant liabilities, which will not be incurred in the future as the SoFi Technologies warrants were redeemed in December 2021 and the Series H warrants were reclassified to equity in connection with the Business Combination. Lastly, noninterest expense includes the provision for credit losses, which relates primarily to our credit card product within the Financial Services segment.

Directly Attributable Expenses

As presented within “Summary Results by Segment”, in our determination of the contribution profit (loss) for our Lending, Technology Platform and Financial Services segments, we allocate certain expenses that are directly attributable to the corresponding segment. Directly attributable expenses primarily include compensation and benefits and sales and marketing, inclusive of member incentives, and vary based on the amount of activity within each segment. Directly attributable expenses also include loan origination and servicing expenses, professional services, product fulfillment, and lead generation. Expenses are attributed to the reportable segments using either direct costs of the segment or labor costs that can be attributed based upon the allocation of employee time for individual products.

Total interest income decreased by $8.5 million, or 2%, for the year ended December 31, 2021 compared to the year ended December 31, 2020 due to the following:

Loans.    Loans interest income increased by $7.5 million, or 2%, primarily driven by increases in non-securitization personal loan and student loan interest income of $67.8 million (71%) and $16.5 million (22%), respectively, which were primarily a function of increases in average balances for personal loans and student loans of $657.5 million (74%) and $611.9 million (39%), respectively. The personal loan average balance increase was primarily attributable to higher origination volume. The student loan average balance increase was primarily attributable to longer loan holding periods, partially offset by lower origination volume. The student loan interest income was also negatively impacted by lower loan coupon rates. The increase from non-securitization loan interest income was partially offset by a decline of $81.4 million in interest income from consolidated personal loan and student loan securitizations, which were impacted by an aggregate $1.0 billion (49%) decline in average balances attributable to payment activity and the deconsolidation of two VIEs in March 2020 and one VIE in July 2020. The remaining increase in loans interest income primarily included $3.7 million attributable to credit card loans, which launched in the third quarter of 2020, and $1.0 million attributable to home loans.

Securitizations.    Securitizations interest income decreased by $9.9 million, or 41%, which was primarily attributable to decreases in residual investment interest income of $4.1 million and asset-backed bonds of $4.4 million, due primarily to decreases in average securitization investment balances year over year, as securitization payments outpaced new securitization investments. We also had a decrease in securitization float interest income of $1.4 million related to decreases in average securitization loan balances and a decline in interest rates year over year.

Related Party Notes. Related party notes interest income decreased by $3.0 million, or 93%, due to the absence of interest income on a stockholder loan and a decrease in interest income related to our loans to Apex, as the Apex loans were fully settled in February 2021.

Other.    Other interest income decreased by $3.1 million, or 52%, primarily due to interest rate decreases period over period that impacted the interest income we earned on both our interest-bearing cash and cash equivalents balances and Member Bank deposits. For cash and cash equivalents, this impact was combined with a lower average balance year over year, while the impact on Member Bank deposits was partially offset by a higher average balance year over year. In addition, this variance was partially offset by interest income of $0.2 million earned on our investments in AFS debt securities in 2021.

Securitizations and warehouses interest expense decreased by $64.7 million, or 42%, for the year ended December 31, 2021 compared to the year ended December 31, 2020, driven by the following:

•Securitization debt interest expense (exclusive of debt issuance and discount amortization) decreased by $30.5 million (46%), primarily driven by a decline in average balance of 50%, which was attributable to payment activity during the year and the deconsolidation of securitizations discussed within the “Interest Income” section. The impact of the year over year decrease in one-month LIBOR, which primarily affects our student loan securitization debt, was more than offset by payoffs of debt with lower interest rates, which raised the overall weighted average interest rate.

•Warehouse debt interest expense (exclusive of debt issuance amortization) decreased by $22.4 million, which was primarily related to decreases in reference rates year over year and lower warehouse facility interest rate spreads, as well as a 13% lower average warehouse debt balance outstanding in 2021, which was enabled by our other financing activities during 2021.

•Residual interests classified as debt interest expense decreased by $4.5 million, which was correlated with a lower balance of residual interests classified as debt during 2021, a significant driver of which was the deconsolidation of two securitizations in March 2020 and one securitization in July 2020, in combination with no consolidations of VIEs during 2021.

•Debt issuance cost interest expense decreased by $7.3 million, which was primarily driven by a lower run rate on our issuance cost amortization related to our loan warehouse facilities, as we extended certain loan warehouse facilities, which had the effect of lowering the quarterly debt issuance cost amortization. The variance was also impacted by a decrease in the acceleration of debt issuance costs in 2021 compared to 2020.

Corporate Borrowings.    Corporate borrowings interest expense decreased by $17.6 million, or 63%, for the year ended December 31, 2021 compared to the year ended December 31, 2020, primarily due to the following:

•Interest expense incurred on the Galileo seller note, which was issued in May 2020 and repaid in February 2021, decreased by $18.6 million. In 2020, we incurred imputed interest during the six-month interest-free period, followed by incremental interest at the note’s stated rate when the promotional period lapsed and we did not pay off the Galileo seller note. Comparatively, in 2021 we incurred interest at the Galileo seller note’s stated rate through its repayment in February 2021.

•Interest expense on the revolving credit facility decreased by $0.2 million, which reflected a decline in one-month LIBOR year over year, partially offset by a higher average balance in 2021, as we drew $325.0 million on the facility during the second quarter of 2020.

•These decreases were partially offset by interest expense of $1.2 million associated with our issuance of convertible notes in the fourth quarter of 2021, which consisted of the amortization of the debt discount and debt issuance costs.

Other.    Other interest expense decreased by $0.5 million, or 22%, for the year ended December 31, 2021 compared to the year ended December 31, 2020, primarily due to the following:

•Interest expense related to our SoFi Money product decreased by $0.8 million, primarily attributable to lower weighted average interest rates offered to members, which was partially offset by an increase in cash balances in member SoFi Money accounts.

•Interest expense related to our finance leases increased by $0.3 million, primarily due to a full year of expense in 2021, as we entered into the arrangement in September 2020.

Total noninterest income increased by $345.0 million, or 89%, for the year ended December 31, 2021 compared to the year ended December 31, 2020, due to the following:

Loan Origination and Sales.    Loan origination and sales increased by $126.3 million, or 34%, year over year, which was primarily related to the following:

•an increase of $187.0 million in personal loan origination and sales income, which was primarily attributable to higher origination volume and higher sales activity during 2021 combined with increased fair value adjustments at the end of 2021, as well as a personal loan purchase price earn-out derivative position in 2021. We also had higher gains on our personal loan economic hedging activities;

•a decrease of $7.7 million in student loan origination and sales income, net of a gain on related student loan commitments. The student loan decrease was primarily attributable to lower origination volume and lower sales activity during 2021 at lower execution prices combined with decreased fair value adjustments at the end of 2021. The execution prices and fair value marks were impacted by lower interest rates offered in 2021. These student loan decreases were largely offset by gains on our student loan economic hedging activities;

•a $22.3 million gain on credit default swaps in 2020 that did not recur in 2021;

•a decrease of $19.4 million in home loan origination and sales related income, net of hedges and related IRLCs (exclusive of home loan origination fees), of which $19.0 million was attributable to lower sales execution and lower

TABLE OF CONTENTS

home loan valuations despite higher origination and sales volumes. The variance also reflected a decrease of $26.4 million associated with IRLCs that was correlated with a decline in the home loan pipeline and pricing in 2021 compared to significant increases in the home loan pipeline and pricing during 2020. The decrease in IRLCs was largely offset by a $26.0 million increase in home loan pipeline hedge values, which corresponded with a decline in home loan prices during 2021; and

•an increase of $2.9 million in home loan origination fees in conjunction with a 36% increase in origination volume.

Securitizations.    Securitizations income improved by $55.4 million, or 79%, primarily due to an aggregate increase of $31.7 million year over year in securitization loan fair market value changes, principally due to the significantly improved economic environment during 2021 relative to 2020, when the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic were more pronounced. Additionally, we experienced a reduction in securitization loan write-offs of $27.3 million in 2021, which was correlated with the deconsolidation of securitizations in 2020, stronger securitization loan credit performance and lower average securitization loan balances during 2021. Additionally, we had losses from deconsolidations of $14.7 million during 2020 and no corresponding losses in 2021. Finally, we had a positive variance in our securitization residual interest investments of $5.1 million.

Partially offsetting these effects was an unfavorable variance in residual debt fair value of $14.3 million year over year, which was correlated with underlying securitization performance and residual interest positions representing a greater percentage of securitization claims year over year. We also had a decline in bond fair values of $8.5 million year over year, which was primarily attributable to positive fair value adjustments in the second and third quarters of 2020 due to increased bond pricing following a resurgence in market demand for securitization bonds. Subsequent to those quarters and through 2021, we had negative fair value adjustments due to realized interest income cash flows (realized cash flows lower bond fair values and increase interest income by the amount realized during the period) and, therefore, realized interest income, which lowers bond fair values, had no net impact on earnings.

(1)Represents the gains recognized on loan securitization transfers qualifying for sale accounting treatment. For the year ended December 31, 2020, the gains are exclusive of deconsolidation losses of $14.7 million. There were no deconsolidation losses during the year ended December 31, 2021.

(2)During the year ended December 31, 2021, we had gains of $42.7 million on interest rate swap positions primarily due to higher interest rates since the start of 2021. We also had gains of $6.5 million on home loan pipeline hedges primarily due to decreases in the underlying hedge price index during the year. During the year ended December 31, 2020, we had losses of $57.5 million on interest rate swap positions primarily due to significant declines in interest rates amid the COVID-19 pandemic. We also had losses of $19.5 million on home loan pipeline hedges primarily due to increases in the underlying hedge price index during the year. These losses were partially offset by gains on our credit default swaps of $22.3 million during 2020. Amounts presented herein exclude IRLCs and student loan commitments, as they are not economic hedges of loan fair values.

During 2020, $3.6 million of the $11.2 million of recoveries were captured via loan sales to a third-party collection agency.

(5)For the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, includes gross write-offs of $21.2 million and $54.7 million, respectively. During 2021, $2.4 million of the $9.8 million of recoveries were captured via loan sales to a third-party collection agency. During 2020, $7.2 million of the $16.1 million of recoveries were captured via loan sales to a third-party collection agency.

Servicing. Servicing income increased by $17.1 million, or 88%, which was primarily related to fair value changes in our servicing assets that were largely attributable to a lower rate of increase in servicing asset prepayment speed assumptions in 2021 relative to 2020, and a decrease in the discount rate for home loan servicing assets during 2021. The home loan

92

TABLE OF CONTENTS

servicing asset discount rate decline was informed from market trends which demonstrated stronger demand (lower required yields) for the home loan servicing asset class during 2021 as compared to during 2020.

We own the master servicing on all of the servicing rights that we retain and, in each case, recognize the gross servicing rate applicable to each serviced loan. Sub-servicers are utilized for all serviced student loans and home loans, which represents a cost to SoFi, but these arrangements do not impact our calculation of the weighted average basis points earned for each loan type serviced. Further, there is no impact on servicing income due to forbearance and moratoriums on certain debt collection activities, and there are no waivers of late fees.

Technology Platform Fees.    Technology platform fees earned by Galileo, which do not include fees earned from SoFi (as they are eliminated in consolidation), increased by $101.7 million, or 113%, in part due to a partial period of earnings in 2020, as we acquired Galileo on May 14, 2020. The increased fees were predominantly driven by growth from existing clients.

Other.    Other income increased by $44.5 million, or 281%, primarily driven by increases in brokerage-related revenues of $19.3 million, payment network fees of $8.2 million and referral fees of $9.9 million. The brokerage-related fees earned during 2021 were primarily attributable to increased digital assets activities and were also positively impacted by our acquisition of 8 Limited in the second quarter of 2020, inclusive of a monthly platform fee that is charged to our SoFi Hong Kong members and was introduced in the fourth quarter of 2021. The increase in payment network fees (which includes interchange fees) was directly correlated with increased credit card spending (which was a product launched in the second half of 2020) and debit card transactions on our platform, in addition to the impact from the acquisition of Galileo in the second quarter of 2020. Lastly, the increase in referral fees was primarily attributable to growth in our partner relationships and related activity, as we continue to onboard new partners and help drive volume to our partners, as well as an increase associated with a referral fulfillment arrangement we entered into in the third quarter of 2021.

Additionally, we had earnings from a historical period venture capital investment of $4.0 million in 2021 (for which we sold a portion of the investment during 2021). For another privately-held investment, we had earnings from an upward adjustment of $0.7 million in 2021 compared to a loss of $0.8 million in 2020. Finally, we had additional new sources of revenue in 2021 consisting of equity capital markets revenues of $2.6 million and advisory services of $2.6 million. These gains were primarily offset by a $4.6 million decrease in equity method income, primarily resulting from our equity method investment in Apex, which was called in the first quarter of 2021.

Total noninterest expense increased by $572.0 million, or 64%, for the year ended December 31, 2021 compared to the year ended December 31, 2020, due to the following:

Technology and Product Development. Technology and product development expenses increased by $74.9 million, or 37%, primarily due to:

•an increase in amortization expense on intangible assets of $7.9 million, which included both an $11.5 million increase associated with intangible assets acquired during the second quarter of 2020 and a $3.6 million decrease associated with the acceleration of our core banking infrastructure amortization during 2020;

•an increase in purchased and internally-developed software amortization of $7.2 million, which was primarily reflective of increased investments in technology in our Technology Platform segment;

•an increase in employee compensation and benefits of $48.5 million, inclusive of an increase in share-based compensation expense of $33.2 million, which was related to an increase in technology and product personnel in support of our growth, and the effect of new award issuances at increased share prices. We also had an increase in average compensation in 2021; and

•an increase in software licenses, and tools and subscriptions expense of $8.9 million related to headcount increases and internal technology initiatives.

Sales and Marketing. Sales and marketing expenses increased by $150.3 million, or 54%, primarily due to:

•an increase in amortization expense of $12.9 million associated with the customer-related intangible assets acquired in the second quarter of 2020;

•an increase in employee compensation and benefits of $20.2 million, inclusive of an increase in share-based compensation expense of $8.1 million, which was correlated with an increase in sales and marketing personnel to support our growth, and the effect of new awards at increased share prices, partially offset by a decrease in average compensation in 2021;

•an increase of SoFi Stadium related expenditures of $8.6 million, which is exclusive of depreciation and interest expense on the embedded lease portion of our SoFi Stadium agreement;

•an increase of $38.5 million related to increasing utilization of lead generation channels during 2021;

•an increase in direct customer promotional expenditures of $18.5 million, which is one of our levers for stimulating member product adoption and engagement; and

•an increase in advertising expenditures of $44.2 million, which was attributable to an increase in search, social, television and digital advertising expenditures in 2021, partially offset by a decrease in direct mail marketing expenditures.

Cost of Operations.    Cost of operations increased by $78.1 million, or 44%, primarily due to:

•an increase in loan origination and servicing expenses of $14.7 million, of which $12.9 million was related to home loans and was correlated with the growth in origination volume year over year;

•an increase of $16.1 million in product fulfillment costs, which was primarily related to payment processing network association fees associated with increased activity on our technology platform, and was predominantly attributable to post-acquisition Galileo operations;

94

TABLE OF CONTENTS

•an increase in employee compensation and benefits of $32.2 million, which was correlated with an increase in cost of operations personnel in support of our growth, in addition to an increase in average compensation in 2021;

•an increase in software licenses, tools and subscriptions and other related fees of $9.1 million related to headcount increases and internal technology initiatives;

•an increase in credit card expenses, primarily processing fees, of $3.5 million related to increased credit card activity;

•an increase in brokerage-related costs and debit card fulfillment costs of $5.3 million, primarily related to the growth of SoFi Invest and SoFi Money; and

•a decrease in SoFi Money account operational losses of $3.8 million.

General and Administrative.    General and administrative expenses increased by $261.2 million, or 110%, primarily due to:

•an increase in employee compensation and benefits of $120.7 million, inclusive of an increase in share-based compensation expense of $92.2 million, which was related to an increase in general and administrative personnel to support our growing infrastructure and administrative needs in addition to an increase in average compensation in 2021, and the effect of new awards issued at increased share prices;

•an increase in the fair value of our warrant liabilities of $86.8 million, which was comprised of a larger fair value increase on the Series H redeemable preferred stock during 2021 prior to the Business Combination relative to 2020 of $101.3 million, partially offset by fair value decreases related to the SoFi Technologies warrants assumed in the Business Combination of $14.5 million;

•an increase of $21.2 million related to the special payment made to the Series 1 preferred stockholders in 2021 associated with the Business Combination, which was partially offset by $3.0 million lower other transaction-related expenses. Transaction-related expenses in 2021 were primarily related to our acquisition of Golden Pacific, our anticipated acquisition of Technisys, and debt and equity transactions, including our convertible debt, capped call and secondary offering on behalf of certain investors. Transaction-related expenses in 2020 included costs associated with our acquisitions of Galileo and 8 Limited;

•an increase in non-transaction related professional services of $14.5 million, such as accounting, advisory and legal services, and an increase in corporate insurance of $6.3 million, which were primarily attributable to the increased costs of being a public company and preparation to become a bank holding company;

•an increase in occupancy-related expenses of $3.2 million; and

•an increase in software licenses and tools and subscriptions of $4.3 million, which was correlated with increased headcount.

Provision for Credit Losses. The provision for credit losses of $7.6 million during the year ended December 31, 2021 reflects the expected credit losses associated with our credit card loans. The provision for credit losses was not meaningful during the year ended December 31, 2020, as we launched our credit card product in the third quarter of 2020 and had immaterial activity through the end of the year.

Net Loss

We had a net loss of $483.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2021 compared to $224.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2020. The increase in loss was due to the factors discussed above, as well as the change in income taxes. The significant tax benefit in 2020 was associated with the remeasurement of our valuation allowance during 2020 primarily as a result of the deferred tax liabilities recognized in connection with our acquisition of Galileo, which decreased the valuation allowance by $99.8 million.

Total interest income decreased by $244.7 million, or 40%, for the year ended December 31, 2020 compared to the year ended December 31, 2019 due to the following:

Loans.     Loans interest income decreased by $240.1 million, or 42%, primarily driven by a $218.3 million decrease in personal loan interest income year over year. A significant portion of this decrease was related to a decline in securitization loan interest income of $209.4 million, which was a function of our deconsolidation of three variable interest entities (“VIEs”) during 2020 that were previously consolidated during 2019, and earning interest income from loans in three consolidated VIEs in 2019 that were deconsolidated in the fourth quarter of 2019. In all cases, our deconsolidations of previously consolidated VIEs were triggered by a third party purchasing enough residual interest ownership in the VIEs from us such that we owned less than 10% of the VIE residual interest. As we no longer had a significant financial interest in the VIEs, we deconsolidated them, which included the related securitization loans.

Further, we did not consolidate any personal loan VIEs during 2020. In addition, our monthly average non-securitization personal loan balance during 2020 was 5% lower than in 2019, which contributed to an $8.9 million decline in loan interest income year over year. This decline was heavily influenced by the COVID-19 pandemic, which contributed to a year over year decline in personal loan origination volume of 31%. Student loan securitization interest income declined by $34.1 million, which was correlated with an increase in prepayments and was also negatively impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. These declines in interest were offset by an $11.6 million increase in non-securitization student loan interest income, which was consistent with a 33% higher average balance year over year as a result of a longer holding period for loans on the balance sheet and a significant strategic purchase of loans during 2020.

Securitizations.    Securitizations interest income increased by $0.9 million, or 4%, which was attributable to an increase in residual investment interest income of $2.9 million and asset-backed bonds of $1.2 million. These increases were offset by a decline in securitization float interest income of $3.2 million, which was largely attributable to declining interest rates during 2020.

Related Party Notes.    Related party notes interest income decreased by $0.1 million, or 4%, due to a decrease in interest income on a stockholder loan, which was fully settled in 2020, partially offset by an increase in interest income related to loans to Apex, as the first loan was issued in November 2019 with additional amounts loaned during 2020.

In March 2019, we entered into a $58.0 million note receivable agreement with a stockholder (the “Note Receivable Stockholder”), which accrued interest at 7.0%. In October 2019, we assigned a portion of our call option rights pursuant to such agreement to another stockholder who paid $15.2 million to purchase an aggregate of 3,095,078 common and preferred shares held by the Note Receivable Stockholder. The Note Receivable Stockholder then paid us $15.2 million to settle a portion of the outstanding note receivable and accrued interest owed to us. During the year ended December 31, 2020, the Note Receivable Stockholder made payments totaling $47.8 million to settle the remaining outstanding note receivable and accrued interest.

As of December 31, 2020, we had three notes receivable outstanding from Apex with a total principal balance of $16.7 million, of which $7.6 million was loaned by us during the year ended December 31, 2020 in two transactions and accrued interest annually at a fixed rate of 10.0%. The initial note receivable of $9.1 million was loaned by us in November 2019 and accrued interest annually at a fixed rate of 5.0% as of December 31, 2020. In February 2021, Apex repaid the total outstanding principal balances and accrued interest.

See Note 15 to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information on our related party notes.

(1)Table excludes residual interests classified as debt, as interest expense is dependent on the timing and extent of securitization loan cash flows and, therefore, a derived weighted average interest rate using the methodology in the table herein is not meaningful for the purposes of understanding the change in residual interests classified as debt related interest expense.

(2)Calculated as annualized interest expense divided by average debt balance for the respective debt category. Interest rates on securitization debt and warehouse facilities exclude the effect of debt issuance cost interest expense and amortization of debt discounts.

Securitizations and warehouses interest expense decreased by $112.9 million, or 42%, for the year ended December 31, 2020 compared to the year ended December 31, 2019, driven by the following:

•Securitization debt interest expense (exclusive of debt issuance and discount amortization) decreased by $66.7 million, which was correlated with the deconsolidation of VIEs and the absence of new consolidated VIEs, with the exception of one student loan VIE, which was only briefly consolidated before we transferred the significant portion of our financial interest and subsequently deconsolidated it. Moreover, the majority of our student loan securitization debt is tied to one-month LIBOR, which decreased during 2020;

97

TABLE OF CONTENTS

•Warehouse debt interest expense (exclusive of debt issuance amortization) decreased by $28.9 million, which was related to a decrease in one- and three-month LIBOR during 2020. Interest rate declines were partially offset by a higher average warehouse debt balance outstanding during 2020;

•Residual interests classified as debt interest expense decreased by $17.9 million, which was correlated with a lower balance of residual interests classified as debt during 2020, a significant driver of which was the deconsolidation of VIEs during 2020 and 2019; and

•Debt issuance cost interest expense increased by $0.6 million, which was associated with an initiative to increase our warehouse borrowing capacity to protect against potential future funding constraints attributable to the COVID-19 pandemic, partially offset by a decrease in securitization debt issuance costs in 2020, as the deconsolidation of VIEs contributed to lower debt issuance cost amortization in 2020.

Corporate Borrowings.    Corporate borrowings interest expense increased by $23.0 million, or 464%, primarily due to the following:

•Interest expense incurred on the Galileo seller note issued in May 2020, which was comprised of two components: (i) non-cash interest expense accretion of $6.0 million incurred because of the seller note discount to face value, and (ii) interest expense incurred of $16.2 million related to the outstanding seller note balance of $250.0 million at a stated rate of 10.0%; and

•An increase of $0.8 million in interest expense on the revolving credit facility, which reflected a higher average balance during 2020, as we drew $325.0 million on the facility during the second quarter of 2020, partially offset by a decline in one-month LIBOR year over year.

Other.    Other interest expense decreased by $2.9 million, or 53%, primarily due to a decrease in interest expense of $3.0 million associated with SoFi Money balances, which was correlated with the decline in interest rates during 2020.

Total net revenue$565,532$442,659$122,87328%

Total noninterest income increased by $274.8 million, or 244%, for the year ended December 31, 2020 compared to the year ended December 31, 2019, due to the following:

Loan Origination and Sales.    Loan origination and sales increased by $72.1 million, or 24%. We experienced an $81.1 million year over year increase in home loan originations and sales related income, net of hedges, and related interest rate lock commitments, which was driven by a 182% increase in home loans origination volume and a mix shift toward more FNMA loans during 2020, which sold for a greater loan premium compared to non-agency home loans. Home loan origination fees also increased by $7.9 million year over year in conjunction with the increase in origination volume.

Offsetting these increases was a $16.9 million decline in aggregate personal and student loan origination and sales income, which was attributable to lower origination volumes, partially offset by combined lower write-offs and repurchase expense due to improved loan credit and underwriting performance. Student loan origination volume declined 26% year over year, primarily due to lower demand for our student loan refinancing products as a result of the payment deferral period on federal student loans enacted through the CARES Act in 2020. Personal loan origination volume declined 31% year over year, primarily due to our efforts in 2020 to further tighten our underwriting and credit policies to mitigate our credit risk exposure during the economic downturn combined with lower demand for personal loan financing, which we believe was a result of lower consumer spending behavior during the early stages of the COVID-19 pandemic.

98

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Securitizations.    Securitization income improved by $128.9 million, or 65%, primarily due to a reduction in securitization loan write-offs of $82.5 million, which was related to the deconsolidation of VIEs and stronger securitization loan credit performance during 2020. The decrease in securitization loan write-offs also had the impact of improving our assumed future credit outlook for our securitization loans, which contributed to an aggregate increase of $39.0 million year over year in securitization loan fair market value changes. Additionally, we had a $38.7 million loss realized in the fourth quarter of 2019 related to the deconsolidation of three personal loan VIEs compared to losses in 2020 of $8.6 million attributable to a previously consolidated VIE that was both consolidated and deconsolidated in 2020 and $6.1 million attributable to the deconsolidation of three additional VIEs. Finally, we had a positive variance in our securitization residual investments of $1.9 million.

Partially offsetting these effects was an unfavorable variance in residual debt fair value of $16.4 million year over year, which was correlated with underlying securitization performance and residual interest positions representing a greater percentage of securitization claims year over year.

(5)Represents the expense associated with our estimated loan repurchase obligation. See Note 16 to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.

Servicing.    Servicing income decreased by $27.9 million, or 329%, and was primarily related to fair value changes in our servicing assets that were largely attributable to an increase in servicing asset prepayment speed assumptions year over year. We experienced an increase in loan prepayments during 2020, which we believe is correlated with the market interest rate declines in 2020 compared to 2019.

(6)The impact of the fair value change resulting from changes in valuation inputs and assumptions was $7.8 million and $6.8 million during the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

Technology Platform Fees.    Technology platform fees of $90.1 million during 2020 were earned by Galileo, which we acquired on May 14, 2020 and, therefore, had no impact in 2019.

Other.    Other income increased by $11.6 million, or 277%, primarily due to increases of $3.4 million in equity method investment income, $3.4 million in brokerage-related fees, $2.9 million in payment network fees and $2.2 million in referral fees. The brokerage fees and payment network fees earned during 2020 were bolstered by our acquisitions of 8 Limited and Galileo. The equity method investment income increase was reflective of an increase in trading volume at Apex. This trend in trading volume also positively impacted our brokerage-related fees. Equity method investment income included a $4.3 million impairment charge recognized during the fourth quarter of 2020, which was incurred because the seller of our Apex interest exercised its call option on our equity investment in January 2021 and we measured the carrying value of our Apex equity method investment as of December 31, 2020 equal to the call payment. Payment network fees (which include interchange fees) were directly correlated with increased spending and card transactions on our platform during 2020 compared to 2019. Lastly, the referral fee increase was primarily attributable to our material affiliate revenue relationships launched during the third quarter of 2019; therefore, 2019 is not fully comparable to 2020.

Noninterest Expense

The following table presents the components of our total noninterest expense for the years indicated:

Year Ended December 31,
($ in thousands)20202019$ Variance% Change

Total noninterest expense$894,053$682,258$211,79531%

Total noninterest expense increased by $211.8 million, or 31%, for the year ended December 31, 2020 compared to the year ended December 31, 2019, due to the following:

Technology and Product Development.    Technology and product development expenses increased by $53.7 million, or 36%, primarily due to:

•an increase in amortization expense on intangible assets of $24.6 million, of which $19.9 million was associated with intangible assets acquired during 2020, and of which $5.8 million was related to the acceleration of our core banking infrastructure amortization. These increases were offset by lower amortization in 2020 due to certain smaller intangible assets that were fully amortized during 2019;

•an increase in purchased and internally-developed software amortization of $4.2 million, which was reflective of increased investments in technology to support our growth;

•an increase in employee compensation and benefits of $27.1 million, inclusive of an increase in share-based compensation expense of $12.2 million, which was related to a 12% increase in technology and product personnel in support of our growth in addition to an increase in compensation per person in 2020;

•an increase in software licenses and tools and subscriptions spend of $6.9 million related to headcount increases and internal technology initiatives, which was partially offset by $2.1 million of software abandonment in 2019 ; and

•partially offset by a decrease in the utilization of professional services of $2.3 million.

100

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Sales and Marketing.    Sales and marketing expenses increased by $10.4 million, or 4%, primarily due to:

•an increase in amortization expense of $22.1 million associated with the customer-related intangible assets acquired during 2020;

•an increase in employee compensation and benefits of $10.5 million, inclusive of an increase in share-based compensation expense of $3.9 million, which was correlated with a 29% increase in sales and marketing personnel to support our growth. The headcount-related compensation increase was partially offset by higher severance expense of $1.0 million and higher bonus and commission expenses of $0.8 million during 2019;

•an increase in professional services of $3.2 million during 2020;

•SoFi Stadium related marketing expenditures of $11.5 million related to the opening of SoFi Stadium, which is exclusive of depreciation and interest expense on the embedded lease portion of our SoFi Stadium agreement;

•partially offset by a decrease of $4.0 million related to decreased utilization of lead generation channels, which was reflective of an initiative to rely less on this channel for member growth during 2020; and

•further partially offset by a decrease in advertising expenditures of $31.1 million, which was attributable to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our live sports marketing strategy, the aforementioned SoFi Stadium related marketing expenditures in lieu of advertising expenditures, and the expected advertising benefits we expected to derive from the opening of SoFi Stadium.

Cost of Operations.    Cost of operations increased by $62.6 million, or 54%, primarily due to:

•an increase in loan origination expenses of $16.2 million, of which $16.6 million was related to home loans, which supported the growth in home loan origination volume year over year;

•an increase in third-party fulfillment expenses of $12.5 million, which was primarily attributable to post-acquisition Galileo operations, and primarily relates to the fees we pay to payment networks to route authorized transactions;

•an increase in employee compensation and benefits of $20.0 million, inclusive of an increase in share-based compensation expense of $4.4 million, which was correlated with a 15% increase in cost of operations personnel in support of our growth in addition to an increase in home loan commissions of $5.8 million related to growth in the home loan product. The headcount-related compensation increase was partially offset by higher severance expense of $0.7 million during 2019;

•an increase in occupancy-related costs of $5.6 million;

•an increase in software licenses and tools and subscriptions of $5.1 million related to headcount increases and internal technology initiatives;

•an increase of $3.3 million associated with SoFi Money account write-offs; and

•an increase in brokerage-related costs of $2.1 million related to the growth of SoFi Invest and our wholly-owned subsidiary, 8 Limited, which we acquired in April 2020;

•partially offset by a decrease in professional services of $5.2 million, primarily due to non-recurring operations costs related to SoFi Money incurred in 2019.

General and Administrative.    General and administrative expenses increased by $85.1 million, or 56%, primarily due to:

•an increase in employee compensation and benefits of $37.0 million, inclusive of an increase in share-based compensation expense of $18.5 million, which was related to a 46% increase in general and administrative personnel to support our growing infrastructure and administrative needs in addition to an increase in compensation per person in 2020;

•an increase in bank service charges of $5.8 million, which was primarily related to an increase in unused line fees as a result of increased capacity on our warehouse lines partially offset by a decrease in bank fees year over year;

•an increase in software licenses and tools and subscriptions of $3.6 million;

•transaction-related expenses of $9.2 million during 2020 associated with our acquisitions of 8 Limited and Galileo, which largely consisted of legal, accounting and financial advisory services;

•share-based payments to non-employees of $0.9 million during 2020 for financial advisory services related to our acquisitions;

101

TABLE OF CONTENTS

•an increase in non-transaction related professional services of $5.7 million, which included accounting and legal services; and

•an increase in the fair value of our warrant liabilities of $23.4 million related to an increase in the fair value of our Series H preferred stock.

Net Loss

We had a net loss of $224.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2020 compared to $239.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2019. The decrease in net loss was due to the factors discussed above, as well as the change in income taxes. The primary driver of the $104.6 million year over year decrease in income taxes was associated with the remeasurement of our valuation allowance during 2020, which was primarily a result of the deferred tax liabilities recognized in connection with our acquisition of Galileo, which decreased the valuation allowance by $99.8 million. The deferred tax liabilities recognized in the acquisition were substantially all related to acquired intangibles, which had a fair value of $388.0 million and a tax basis of zero.

Total Products

Total products in our Lending segment is a subset of our total products metric that refers to the number of home loans, personal loans and student loans that have been originated through our platform since our inception through the reporting date, whether or not such loans have been paid off. See “Key Business Metrics” for further discussion of this measure as it relates to our Lending segment.

Origination Volume

We refer to the aggregate dollar amount of loans originated through our platform in a given period as origination volume. Origination volume is an indicator of the size and health of our Lending segment and an indicator (together with the relevant loan characteristics, such as interest rate and prepayment and default expectations) of revenues and profitability. Changes in origination volume are driven by the addition of new members and existing members, the latter of which at times will either refinance into a new SoFi loan or secure an additional, concurrent loan, as well as macroeconomic factors impacting consumer spending and borrowing behavior. Since the profitability of the Lending segment is largely correlated with origination volume, management relies on origination volume trends to assess the need for external financing to support the Financial Services segment and the expense budgets for unallocated expenses.

During the year ended December 31, 2021, home loan origination volume increased relative to 2020 due to an increase in our loan application approval rate and operational efficiencies gained through scale of the platform, which were tempered by rising U.S. treasury rates relative to the 2020 levels, which tends to lower demand for home loans overall and shift demand from refinance originations to purchase originations, the latter of which is a more competitive landscape. Home loan origination volume increased significantly during the year ended December 31, 2020 compared to 2019 in part due to a full period of origination activity in 2020 compared to a partial period in 2019, as we relaunched our home loan product in the first quarter of 2019. The increase was also attributable to increased demand for home loan products in 2020 following the Federal Reserve’s actions to reduce interest rates to near-zero benchmark levels amid the COVID-19 pandemic.

During the year ended December 31, 2021, personal loan origination volume increased significantly relative to 2020, primarily due to the improved economic outlook and consumer confidence levels throughout 2021 relative to 2020, as there was lower consumer spending behavior during the earlier stages of the COVID-19 pandemic, which we believe decreased the

TABLE OF CONTENTS

overall demand for debt consolidation loans (which is one of the primary stated purposes for our personal loan originations). We also increased our loan application approval rate during the second half of 2021, which was correlated with a reopening of our personal loan credit eligibility. Personal loan origination volume decreased during the year ended December 31, 2020 relative to 2019 primarily due to the combination of our efforts to further tighten our underwriting and credit policies to mitigate our credit risk exposure during the economic downturn and lower consumer spending behavior during the COVID-19 pandemic, which we believe decreased the overall demand for debt consolidation loans, despite us lowering the average coupon rate during 2020.

During the year ended December 31, 2021, student loan origination volume decreased relative to 2020, as demand for student loan refinancing products continued to be unfavorably impacted by the automatic suspension of principal and interest payments on federally-held student loans enacted through the CARES Act in March 2020 that was extended by executive action most recently until May 2022. During the year ended December 31, 2020, demand for our student loan refinancing products decreased relative to 2019, primarily due to the CARES Act suspensions. Although the in-school loan product, which we launched in the third quarter of 2019, had a modest impact on the full year 2019, we increased our origination volume during each of 2020 and 2021.

Loans with a Balance and Average Loan Balance

Loans with a balance refers to the number of loans that have a balance greater than zero dollars as of the reporting date. Loans with a balance allows management to better understand the unit economics of acquiring a loan in relation to the lifetime value of that loan. Average loan balance is defined as the total unpaid principal balance of the loans divided by loans with a balance within the respective loan product category as of the reporting date. Average loan balance tends to fluctuate based on the pace of loan originations relative to loan repayments and the initial loan origination size.

When third parties finance our consolidated VIEs through purchasing residual interests, we receive proceeds at the time of the securitization close and, thereafter, pass along contractual cash flows to the residual interest owner. These obligations are measured at fair value on a recurring basis, with fair value changes recorded within noninterest income in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss). The fair value change attributable to assumption changes has no impact on our initial financing proceeds, our future obligations to the residual interest owner (because future residual interest claims are limited to contractual securitization collateral cash flows), or the general operations of our business. As such, this non-cash change in fair value is adjusted to provide management and financial users with better visibility into the cash flows available to finance our operations.

Lending segment directly attributable expenses for the year ended December 31, 2021 increased by $69.4 million, or 24%, compared to the year ended December 31, 2020, primarily due to:

•an increase of $23.8 million in direct advertising related to an increase in search engine, television, social media and digital advertising expenditures, and offset by a decline in direct mail marketing expenditures;

•an increase of $5.5 million in allocated compensation and related benefits, which correlated with increased overall headcount at the Company during the period and average compensation per employee in 2021, but was partially mitigated by a decline in the percentage of time allocated per employee to the Lending segment during 2021;

•an increase of $14.5 million in loan origination and servicing costs, which supported our growth in origination volume year over year, primarily in home loans;

•an increase of $30.6 million due to increasing utilization of lead generation channels associated with increased personal loan origination volume in 2021, which was partially offset by lower student loan origination volume through lead generation channels;

•a decrease of $1.2 million in unused warehouse line fees due to higher average committed warehouse line usage and lower unused fee rates;

•a decrease of $1.5 million in professional services costs primarily related to a decrease in the use of our third-party consultants for our operations and technology teams, partially offset by an increase in advisory services; and

•a decrease of $2.4 million in other expenses, primarily related to decreases in occupancy-related costs, which was primarily driven by a decrease in the percentage of time allocated to the Lending segment in 2021.

202120202019
Total accounts99,660,65759,735,21067%n/m

In our Technology Platform segment, total accounts refers to the number of open accounts at Galileo as of the reporting date. Beginning in the fourth quarter of 2021, we included SoFi accounts on the Galileo platform-as-a-service in our total accounts metric to better align with the Technology Platform segment revenue reported in Note 18 to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. Intercompany revenue is eliminated in consolidation. We recast the total accounts as of December 31, 2020 to conform to the current year presentation. No information is reported prior to our acquisition of Galileo on May 14, 2020. Total accounts is a primary indicator of the amount of accounts that are dependent upon Galileo’s technology platform to use virtual card products, virtual wallets, make peer-to-peer and bank-to-bank transfers, receive early paychecks, separate savings from spending balances and rely upon real-time authorizations, all of which result in technology platform fees for the Technology Platform segment.

The increase in Technology Platform directly attributable expenses for the year ended December 31, 2021 compared to the year ended December 31, 2020 in each of the expense categories was partially impacted by the timing of our acquisition of Galileo during the second quarter of 2020 compared to full year results in 2021. The increase was also primarily driven by the following:

•an increase of $49.1 million in compensation and benefits expense, which was correlated with an increase in Galileo and other allocated personnel to support segment growth, as well as an increase in average compensation during 2021;

•an increase of $18.6 million in product fulfillment costs, primarily related to payment processing network association fees associated with increased activity on the platform. These fees grew by 130% during 2021 compared to 2020, which correlated with growth of 113% in technology platform fees;

•an increase of $4.3 million in professional services costs related to third-party technology and product consulting for technology infrastructure support;

•an increase of $5.3 million in tools and subscriptions related to headcount increases and internal technology initiatives to support the growth of the platform; and

•an increase of $10.7 million in other expenses, which was primarily related to (i) data center expenses, which correlated with the growth in accounts on the Galileo platform, (ii) bad debt expense, which correlated with growing contract assets from increasing technology platform revenue, and (iii) occupancy-related costs.

Technology Platform Segment — Year Ended December 31, 2020 Compared to Year Ended December 31, 2019

Noninterest income

Total net revenue of $96.3 million during the year ended December 31, 2020 was primarily related to our acquisition of Galileo in May 2020, which earns revenues from contracts with customers in accordance with ASC 606. The Technology Platform total net revenue primarily consisted of technology platform fees at Galileo. During the year ended December 31, 2019, total net revenue was comprised of our investment in Apex, from which we earned income under the equity method of accounting. Total net revenue contributed by Apex equity method income increased by $3.6 million year over year, and represented $4.4 million of the total net revenue balance for 2020. Our Apex equity method income during 2020 included an impairment charge of $4.3 million that resulted from measuring the carrying value of the investment as of December 31, 2020 equal to the payment we received in January 2021 upon the seller of our equity interest exercising its call rights on our investment in Apex.

Net interest income

Net interest income in our Financial Services segment increased by $3.3 million, or 678%, for the year ended December 31, 2021 compared to the year ended December 31, 2020, which was primarily attributable to net interest income on credit card loans, which launched during the third quarter of 2020.

Noninterest income

Noninterest income in our Financial Services segment increased by $42.9 million, or 377%, for the year ended December 31, 2021 compared to the year ended December 31, 2020, primarily due to the following:

•increases in brokerage-related fees of $19.3 million, which coincided with increases in digital assets trading volume on our platform during 2021, and payment network fees of $8.2 million, which coincided with increased credit card and debit card transaction volume;

•an increase of $2.7 million in enterprise service fees, which primarily consisted of advisory service fees;

•an increase associated with equity capital markets services of $2.6 million, consisting of underwriting fees and dealer fees, which arrangements commenced in 2021; and

•an increase in referral fees of $9.9 million, which was primarily attributable to growth in our partner relationships and related activity, as we continue to onboard new partners and help drive volume to these partners, as well as an increase associated with a referral fulfillment arrangement we entered in the third quarter of 2021.

Financial Services directly attributable expenses for the year ended December 31, 2021 increased by $49.0 million, or 34%, compared to the year ended December 31, 2020, primarily due to the following:

•an increase of $13.2 million in product fulfillment costs related to SoFi Invest and SoFi Money, which included such activities as operating our cash management sweep program, brokerage expenses and debit card fulfillment services, and is also inclusive of the impact of our 8 Limited acquisition on a full year of operations during 2021. In addition, corresponding with the launch of our credit card product during the third quarter of 2020, we had additional costs related to credit card fulfillment, which had a more significant impact in 2021;

•an increase of $10.4 million primarily related to direct member incentives for our SoFi Money and SoFi Invest products;

•an increase of $11.0 million in direct advertising costs, which was primarily related to increased social media and search engine marketing costs. All marketing initiatives were primarily related to the continued promotion of, and growth in, our Financial Services products;

•an increase of $8.0 million in lead generation costs related to increased activity through this channel, which was predominantly associated with SoFi Invest;

•an increase of $1.2 million in intercompany technology platform expenses related to higher volume of technology platform services provided to SoFi by Galileo;

•an increase of $7.6 million related to our provision for credit losses on our credit card product, which launched during the third quarter of 2020 and, therefore, did not have meaningful activity during 2020; and

•a decrease of $2.0 million in professional services costs, which was primarily related to reduced third-party consulting for SoFi Money.

Net interest income in our Financial Services segment for the year ended December 31, 2020 decreased by $0.1 million, or 21%, compared to the year ended December 31, 2019 due to interest rate decreases during 2020, which resulted in lower net interest income earned on our SoFi Money account balances.

Noninterest income

Noninterest income in our Financial Services segment for the year ended December 31, 2020 increased by $8.1 million, or 243%, compared to the year ended December 31, 2019, which was primarily due to a $2.2 million increase in referral fees, a $3.4 million increase in brokerage-related fees, and a $1.8 million increase in payment network fees. The

111

TABLE OF CONTENTS

brokerage fees and payment network fees earned during 2020 were collectively bolstered by our acquisition of 8 Limited and increased member activity in both the SoFi Invest and SoFi Money products. The referral fee increase was primarily attributable to our material referral-related revenue relationships launched during the third quarter of 2019; therefore, 2019 is not fully comparable to 2020.

Directly attributable expenses

The directly attributable expenses allocated to the Financial Services segment that were used in the determination of the segment's contribution loss were as follows:

(1)Other expenses primarily include tools and subscriptions, SoFi Money and SoFi Invest account write-offs and occupancy-related and marketing-related expenses.

Financial Services directly attributable expenses for the year ended December 31, 2020 increased by $21.2 million, or 17%, compared to the year ended December 31, 2019 primarily due to the following:

•an increase in employee compensation and related benefits of $28.4 million, which dovetailed with the continued infrastructure, technology and support investments we made in our SoFi Money and SoFi Invest products during 2020;

•an increase of $0.2 million related to direct member incentives, which was reflective of relatively stable costs relative to our initial year costs for SoFi Money and SoFi Invest;

•an increase of $1.6 million in lead generation costs related to higher origination volume through our lead generation channels;

•an increase of $0.7 million in intercompany technology platform fees, related to technology platform services provided to SoFi by Galileo during our initial year of acquisition, which was 2020;

•an increase of $10.8 million in other expenses primarily related to write offs of SoFi Money accounts and tools and subscription costs;

•a decrease of $1.1 million in product fulfillment costs related to SoFi Invest and SoFi Money, which included such activities as operating our cash management sweep program, brokerage expenses and debit card fulfillment services. The net decrease in 2020 is primarily attributable to nonrecurring expenses incurred in 2019 due to the launch of the SoFi Money product, which was partially offset by increased fulfillment costs in 2020 driven by the growth of the SoFi Money and SoFi Invest products;

•a decrease of $15.0 million in direct advertising costs, such as social media and search engine advertising costs, which was primarily related to a strategic decision to spend less on marketing during the early stages of the COVID-19 pandemic; and

•a decrease of $4.4 million in professional services costs as a result of nonrecurring costs incurred in 2019 to support the launch of the SoFi Money and SoFi Invest products.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We require substantial liquidity to fund our current operating requirements, which primarily include loan originations and the losses generated by our Financial Services segment. We expect these requirements to increase as we pursue our strategic growth goals. Historically, our Lending cash flow variability has related to loan origination volume, our available funding sources and utilization of our warehouse facilities. Moreover, given our continued growth initiatives, we have seen variability in financing cash flows due to the timing and extent of common stock and redeemable preferred stock raises, redemptions, and additional uses and repayments of debt, and our convertible notes issuance. During February 2021, we paid off the seller note issued in 2020 in connection with our acquisition of Galileo, inclusive of all outstanding interest payable, for a total payment of $269.9 million. Remaining operating cash flow variability is largely related to our investments in our business, such as technology and product investments and sales and marketing initiatives, as well as our operating lease facilities. Our capital expenditures have historically been less significant relative to our operating and financing cash flows, and we expect this trend to continue for the foreseeable future. During the year ended December 31, 2021, we received significant liquidity from the Business Combination and the sale, in connection with the Business Combination, of 122,500,000 shares of SCH common stock at $10.00 per share (which automatically converted into shares of SoFi Technologies common stock) (the “PIPE Investment”) during the second quarter, as well as from our issuance of $1.2 billion aggregate principal amount of convertible senior notes in the fourth quarter, as further discussed herein.

To continue to achieve our liquidity objectives, we analyze and monitor liquidity needs and strive to maintain excess liquidity and access to diverse funding sources. We define our liquidity risk as the risk that we will not be able to:

•Originate loans at our current pace, or at all;

•Sell our loans at favorable prices, or at all;

•Meet our minimum capital requirements as a bank holding company and a national banking association;

•Meet our contractual obligations as they become due;

•Increase or extend the maturity of our revolving credit facility capacity;

•Satisfy our obligation to repay the convertible notes if they do not convert into common stock before maturity;

•Meet margin requirements associated with hedging or financing agreements;

113

TABLE OF CONTENTS

•Fund continued operating losses in our business, especially if such operating losses continue at the current level for an extended period of time; or

•Make future investments in the necessary technological and operating infrastructure to support our business.

During the years ended December 31, 2021, 2020 and 2019, we generated negative cash flows from operations. The primary driver of operating cash flows related to our Lending segment are origination volume, the holding period of our loans, loan sale execution and, to a lesser extent, the timing of loan repayments. We either fund our loan originations entirely using our own capital, through proceeds from securitization transactions, or receive an advance rate from our various warehouse facilities to finance the majority of the loan amount. Our cash flows from operations were also impacted by material net losses in each of the years presented. The net losses were primarily driven by our technology and product investments and sales and marketing initiatives, which benefit each of our reportable segments. Our practice of not charging account or trading fees on the majority of our products within the Financial Services segment could result in sustained negative cash flows generated from the Financial Services segment in the short and long term. If our current net losses continue for the foreseeable future, we may raise additional capital in the form of equity or debt, which may not be at favorable terms when compared to previous financing transactions.

We have also utilized our revolving credit facility capacity to fund current liquidity needs in the normal course of business, such as general corporate activities. Our revolving credit facility had remaining capacity of $74.0 million as of December 31, 2021, of which $6.0 million was not available for general borrowing purposes because it was utilized to secure the uncollateralized portion of certain letters of credit issued to secure certain of our operating lease obligations. As of December 31, 2021, the remaining $3.1 million of the $9.1 million letters of credit outstanding was collateralized by cash deposits with the banking institution, which were presented within restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents in the consolidated balance sheets.

Our warehouse facility and securitization debt is secured by a continuing lien on, and security interest in, the loans financed by the proceeds.

Our operating lease obligations consist of our leases of real property from third parties under non-cancellable operating lease agreements, which primarily include the leases of office space, as well as our rights to certain suites and event space within SoFi Stadium, which commenced in the third quarter of 2020 and the latter of which we apply the short-term lease exemption practical expedient and do not capitalize the lease obligation. Our finance lease obligations consist of our rights to certain physical signage within SoFi Stadium, which commenced in the third quarter of 2020. Additionally, our securitization transactions require us to maintain a continuing financial interest in the form of securitization investments when we deconsolidate the special-purpose entity (“SPE”) or in consolidation of the SPE when we have a significant financial interest. In either instance, the continuing financial interest requires us to maintain capital in the SPE that would otherwise be available to us if we had sold loans through a different channel.

We are currently dependent on the success of our Lending segment. Our ability to access whole loan buyers, to sell our loans on favorable terms, to maintain adequate warehouse capacity at favorable terms, and to strategically manage our continuing financial interest in securitization-related transfers is critical to our growth strategy and our ability to have adequate liquidity to fund our balance sheet. There is no guarantee that we will be able to execute on our strategy as it relates to the timing and pricing of securitization-related transfers. Therefore, we may hold securitization interests for longer than planned or be forced to liquidate at suboptimal prices. Securitization transfers are also negatively impacted during recessionary periods, wherein purchasers may be more risk averse.

Further, future uncertainties around the demand for our personal loans and around the student loan refinance market in general should be considered when assessing our future liquidity and solvency prospects. Through the CARES Act that passed during 2020 in response to the COVID-19 pandemic and subsequent extensions, principal and interest payments on federally-held student loans were suspended most recently until May 2022, which in turn lowered the propensity for borrowers to refinance into SoFi student loans relative to pre-COVID levels. To the extent that additional measures, such as student loan forgiveness, are implemented, it may negatively impact our future student loan origination volume. In addition, we have previously altered our credit strategy to defend against adverse credit consequences during recessionary periods, as we did following the outbreak of COVID-19, although those elevated credit eligibility requirements for personal loans were adapted during the first half of 2021 through phases of reopening following our metric-driven, return-to-normalcy action plan. In the future, our loan origination volume and our resulting loan balances, and any positive cash flows thereof, could be lower based on strategic decisions to tighten our credit standards. See “Key Factors Affecting Operating Results—Industry Trends and General Economic Conditions” and “Business Overview—COVID-19 Pandemic” for discussions of the impact of certain measures taken in response to the COVID-19 pandemic on our loan origination volumes and uncertainties that exist with respect to future operations in light of the ongoing pandemic.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Our material commitments requiring, or potentially requiring, the use of cash in future periods are primarily composed of:

•warehouse facility borrowings, which primarily carry variable interest rates, and have terms expiring through January 2030. See Note 10 to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional key terms;

•revolving credit facility borrowings, which includes principal balance and variable interest, assuming (i) such interest remains unchanged, (ii) the borrowings are held to maturity, and (iii) interest is incurred at the rate for standard withdrawals in effect as of December 31, 2021. See Note 10 for additional information;

•convertible senior notes, which do not bear regular interest, and will mature in October 2026 unless earlier repurchased, redeemed or converted. See “Borrowings” below for additional information;

•operating lease obligations, primarily composed of leases of office premises with terms expiring from 2022 through 2031, as well as operating leases associated with SoFi Stadium, which expire in 2040;

•finance lease obligations, composed of our rights to certain physical signage within SoFi Stadium, which expire in 2040;

•the remaining commitment arising out of our agreement (which does not include the foregoing operating lease and finance lease obligations, but includes certain payments for which we are applying the short-term lease exemption) for the naming and sponsorship rights to SoFi Stadium, which pertain primarily to sponsorship and advertising opportunities related to the stadium itself, as well as the surrounding performance venue and planned retail district. See Note 16 to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information on our SoFi Stadium arrangement, including a contingent matter associated with SoFi Stadium payments; and

•the remaining commitment related to a four-year cloud computing services arrangement that we executed in the fourth quarter of 2021. See Note 16 to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.

As it relates to our securitization debt, the maturity of the notes issued by the various trusts occurs upon either the maturity of the loan collateral or full payment of the loan collateral held in the trusts, the timing of which cannot be reasonably estimated. Our own liquidity resources are not required to make any contractual payments on our securitization borrowings.

We may require liquidity resources associated with our guarantee arrangements. We have a three-year obligation to FNMA on loans that we sell to FNMA, to repurchase any originated loans that do not meet FNMA guidelines, and we are required to pay the full initial purchase price back to FNMA. In addition, we make standard representations and warranties related to other student, personal and non-FNMA home loan transfers, as well as limited credit-related repurchase guarantees on certain such transfers. If realized, any of the repurchases would require the use of cash. See “Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements”, as well as Note 1 and Note 16 to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for further information on our guarantee obligations. We believe we have adequate liquidity to meet these expected obligations.

Our long-term liquidity strategy includes maintaining adequate warehouse capacity, corporate debt and other sources of financing, as well as effectively managing the capital raised through debt and equity transactions. Although our goal is to increase our cash flow from operations, there can be no assurance that our future operating plans will lead to improved operating cash flows.

We had unrestricted cash and cash equivalents of $494.7 million and $872.6 million as of December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. We believe our existing cash and cash equivalents balance, investments in AFS debt securities, available capacity under our revolving credit facility (and expected extensions or replacements of the facility), together with additional warehouses or other financing we expect to be able to obtain at reasonable terms and cash proceeds received from the Business Combination, will be sufficient to cover net losses, meet our existing working capital and capital expenditure needs, as well as our planned growth for at least the next 12 months. Our non-securitization loans also represent a key source of liquidity for us, and should be considered in assessing our overall liquidity. We have relationships with whole loan buyers who we believe we will be able to continue to rely on to generate near-term liquidity. Securitization markets can also generate additional liquidity, albeit to a lesser extent, as it involves accessing a much less liquid securitization residual investment market, and in certain cases we are required to maintain a minimum investment due to securitization risk retention rules.

We received gross cash consideration from the Business Combination of $764.8 million, from which we made payments totaling $27.0 million during the year ended December 31, 2021 for costs directly attributable to the issuance of common stock in connection with the Business Combination. Additionally, we used a portion of the funds for the repurchase of certain redeemable common stock from a shareholder for $150.0 million and for a special payment to Series 1 preferred stockholders for $21.2 million in accordance with the Agreement. In addition, we received gross cash consideration of $1.225

billion from the PIPE Investment. The remaining net cash proceeds were utilized by the Company to help fund future strategic and capital needs, including repayment of $1.5 billion of loan warehouse facility debt in June 2021.

In October 2021, we closed on the issuance of $1.2 billion aggregate principal amount of convertible senior notes, from which we received net proceeds of $1.176 billion, after deducting the initial purchasers’ discount. See “Borrowings” below for additional information.

In November 2021, we announced that we would redeem all outstanding SoFi Technologies warrants that remained outstanding on December 6, 2021 (the “Redemption Date”) for a redemption price of $0.10 per warrant. The Warrants were exercisable by the holders thereof until the Redemption Date to purchase fully paid and non-assessable shares of common stock underlying such warrants. As a result of warrant exercises, we issued 15,193,668 shares of common stock and received cash proceeds of $95.0 million. At the end of the redemption period, we paid an immaterial amount to redeem unexercised SoFi Technologies warrants, which when combined with the warrant exercises, eliminated our SoFi Technologies warrants liability as of December 31, 2021. See Note 9 to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.

In February 2022, we acquired Golden Pacific, after which we became a bank holding company and Golden Pacific Bank began operating as SoFi Bank. Shortly after the acquisition closed, we allocated $750 million in capital to SoFi Bank to pursue our national digital business plan. Golden Pacific Bank’s community bank business will continue to operate as a division of SoFi Bank.

Borrowings

Our borrowings as of December 31, 2021 primarily include our loan and risk retention warehouse facilities, asset-backed securitization debt, revolving credit facility and convertible notes. A detailed description of each of our borrowing arrangements is included in Note 10 to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

The amount of financing actually advanced on each individual loan under our loan warehouse facilities, as determined by agreed-upon advance rates, may be less than the stated advance rate depending, in part, on changes in underlying loan characteristics of the loans securing the financings. Each of our loan warehouse facilities allows the lender providing the funds to evaluate the market value of the loans that are serving as collateral for the borrowings or advances being made. As it relates to our current risk retention warehouse facilities, if the lender determines that the value of the collateral has decreased, the lender can require us to provide additional collateral or reduce the amount outstanding with respect to those loans (e.g., initiate a margin call). Our inability or unwillingness to satisfy the request could result in the termination of the facilities and possible default under our other loan funding facilities. In addition, a large unanticipated margin call could have a material adverse effect on our liquidity.

The amount owed and outstanding on our loan warehouse facilities fluctuates significantly based on our origination volume, sales volume, the amount of time it takes us to sell our loans, and the amount of loans being self-funded with cash. We may, from time to time, use surplus cash to self-fund a portion of our loan originations and risk retention in the case of securitization transfers.

We have various affirmative and negative financial covenants, as well as non-financial covenants, related to our warehouse debt and revolving credit facility, as well as our Series 1 preferred stock. Additionally, we have compliance requirements associated with our convertible notes, and certain provisions of the arrangement could change in the event of a “Make-Whole Fundamental Change”, as defined in the indenture.

The availability of funds under our warehouse facilities and revolving credit facility is subject to, among other conditions, our continued compliance with the covenants. These financial covenants include, but are not limited to, maintaining: (i) a certain minimum tangible net worth, (ii) minimum cash and cash equivalents, and (iii) a maximum leverage ratio of total debt to tangible net worth. A breach of these covenants can result in an event of default under these facilities and allows the lenders to pursue certain remedies. Our subsidiaries are restricted in the amount that can be distributed to SoFi only to the extent that such distributions would cause the financial covenants to not be met.

In addition, pursuant to our amended and restated Series 1 redeemable preferred stock agreement, we are subject to the following financial covenants:

•Tangible net worth to total debt ratio requirement, which excludes our warehouse, risk retention and securitization related debt;

•Tangible net worth to Series 1 redeemable preferred stock ratio requirement; and

116

TABLE OF CONTENTS

•Minimum excess equity requirements, where the measure of equity includes permanent equity and redeemable preferred stock (exclusive of Series 1 redeemable preferred stock), as applicable.

We were in compliance with all covenants.

In October 2021, we closed on the issuance of $1.2 billion aggregate principal amount of convertible senior notes (the “Convertible Notes”), which do not bear regular interest, will mature in October 2026 (unless earlier repurchased, redeemed or converted) and will be convertible by the noteholders beginning in April 2026 under certain circumstances. We will settle conversions by paying or delivering, at our election, cash, shares of our common stock or a combination of cash and shares of our common stock, based on the applicable conversion rate(s). The Convertible Notes will be redeemable, in whole or in part, at our option at any time, and from time to time, beginning in October 2024 at a cash redemption price equal to the principal amount of the notes to be redeemed, plus accrued interest, if any. The conversion rate and conversion price will be subject to customary adjustments upon the occurrence of certain events. In addition, if certain corporate events that constitute a “Make-Whole Fundamental Change” (as defined in the indenture) occur, then the conversion rate will, in certain circumstances, be increased for a specified period of time. In addition, calling any note for redemption will also constitute a Make-Whole Fundamental Change with respect to that note, in which case the conversion rate applicable to the conversion of that note will be increased in certain circumstances if it is converted after it is called for redemption. Therefore, redemption events and conversion events (to the extent we elect to cash settle) could require a material use of cash at the time of the event.

Additionally, the Convertible Notes may incur special interest in the event of default, or additional interest if the Company has not satisfied certain reporting conditions or the Convertible Notes are not otherwise freely tradable, as such term is defined in the indenture. If special interest or additional interest is incurred on the Convertible Notes, it could require an additional use of cash.

In connection with the pricing of the Convertible Notes and with the exercise by the initial purchasers of their option to purchase additional notes, which option was exercised, we entered into privately negotiated capped call transactions with certain financial institutions (the “Capped Call Transactions”). The Capped Call Transactions are expected to generally reduce the potential dilutive effect on the common stock upon any conversion of the notes and/or offset any cash payments we are required to make in excess of the principal amount of the converted notes, as the case may be.

The net proceeds from the convertible debt issuance were $1.176 billion. We used $113.8 million of the net proceeds to fund the cost of entering into the Capped Call Transactions. We allotted the remainder of the net proceeds (i) to pay related expenses and (ii) for general corporate purposes. See Note 10 to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.

__________________

(1)The amounts reported exclude future interest expense, other than interest accrued as of December 31, 2021, as it is difficult to predict the amount of interest we will incur due to the variability of the utilization of our warehouse debt and timing of collateral cash flows. As such, only principal commitments and the aforementioned accrued interest are included herein. See Note 10 to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information on our warehouse debt.

(2)Includes principal balance and variable interest on our revolving credit facility. The estimated interest payments assume that our borrowings under the revolving credit facility (i) remain unchanged, (ii) are held to maturity, and (iii) incur interest at the rate for standard withdrawals in effect as of December 31, 2021 through its maturity. See Note 10 to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information on our revolving credit facility.

(3)The Convertible Notes will mature on October 15, 2026, unless earlier repurchased, redeemed or converted. See “Borrowings” for additional information on these provisions.

(4)The contractual obligations associated with the operating lease and finance lease components of the Naming and Sponsorship Agreement with the LA Stadium and Entertainment District are reported in the corresponding lines and are, therefore, excluded from amounts reported in this line. As of December 31, 2021, all payments associated with the planned retail district, which is currently expected to commence no earlier than 2022, are attributed to non-lease components. We do not expect the agreement to contain a material lease component, although the evaluation remains ongoing. See Note 16 to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information on our leases and on a contingent matter associated with SoFi Stadium payments.

(5)Relates to a four-year purchase commitment for cloud computing services with a total of $80 million to be incurred through the term, of which $3.6 million was already incurred in 2021. See Note 16 to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.

(6)Contractual obligations exclude residual interests classified as debt that result from transfers of assets that are accounted for as secured financings. Similarly, contractual obligations exclude securitization debt, as the maturity of the notes issued by the various trusts occurs upon either the maturity of the loan collateral or full payment of the loan collateral held in the trusts, the timing of which cannot be reasonably estimated. Additionally, our own liquidity resources are not required to make any contractual payments on these borrowings, except in limited instances associated with our guarantee arrangements. Our maturity date represents the legal maturity of the last class of maturing notes. See Note 16 to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion of our guarantees. Finally, contractual obligations exclude the impact of uncertain tax positions, as we are not able to reasonably estimate the timing of such future cash flows. See Note 14 to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information on income taxes and unrecognized tax benefits.

Cash Flow and Liquidity Analysis

Net cash provided by financing activities684,987853,75493,077

Cash Flows from Operating Activities

For the year ended December 31, 2021, net cash used in operating activities was $1.4 billion, which stemmed from a net loss of $483.9 million that had a positive adjustment for non-cash items of $479.0 million, and an unfavorable change in our operating assets net of operating liabilities of $1.3 billion. The change in operating assets net of operating liabilities was primarily a result of our loan origination and sales activities. We originated loans of $13.0 billion during the year and also purchased loans of $451.0 million, the latter of which were primarily related to securitization clean-up calls (purchases we elect to make when the risk retention period has sunset). These cash uses were offset by principal payments of $2.2 billion and proceeds from loan sales of $10.0 billion.

For the year ended December 31, 2020, net cash used in operating activities was $479.3 million, which stemmed from a net loss of $224.1 million that had a positive adjustment for non-cash items of $142.0 million, and an unfavorable change in our operating assets net of operating liabilities of $397.3 million. The change in operating assets net of operating liabilities was primarily a result of our loan origination and sales activities. We originated loans of $9.7 billion during the year and also purchased loans of $690.2 million, of which $606.3 million related to strategic loan purchases we made during the year, wherein we believed we could earn net interest income prior to selling the loan for a subsequent gain. These cash uses were largely offset by principal payments from members of $1.9 billion and proceeds from loan sales of $8.0 billion.

For the year ended December 31, 2019, net cash used in operating activities was $54.7 million, which stemmed from a net loss of $239.7 million that had a positive adjustment for non-cash items of $114.9 million, and a favorable change in operating assets net of operating liabilities of $70.0 million. The change in operating assets net of operating liabilities was primarily a result of our loan origination and sales activities. We originated loans of $11.2 billion during the period and also purchased certain loans of $47.3 million, the majority of which were related to securitization clean-up calls. Furthermore, we also purchased loans of $331.6 million to provide additional loan collateral for securitizations that we sponsored during 2019. These cash uses were offset by principal payments from members of $2.5 billion and proceeds from loan sales of $9.1 billion.

Cash Flows from Investing Activities

For the year ended December 31, 2021, net cash provided by investing activities was $110.2 million, which was primarily attributable to proceeds of $107.5 million from the call on our Apex equity method investment and $16.7 million from repayment of the outstanding principal balance on its related party notes, as well as proceeds of $247.1 million from our securitization investments. These cash proceeds were partially offset by $246.4 million of investments made in AFS debt securities, reduced by proceeds of $57.5 million from sales and maturities of these investments. Additionally, we made an

equity method investment of $20.0 million during the third quarter of 2021. Lastly, we used cash of $52.3 million for purchases of property, equipment and software, which primarily included internally-developed software, purchased software, and furniture and fixtures.

For the year ended December 31, 2020, net cash provided by investing activities was $258.9 million, which was primarily attributable to proceeds from our securitization investments of $322.7 million, partially offset by our acquisition activities during the year, which resulted in a net use of cash of $32.4 million. Moreover, we extended additional financing to Apex during the year, which required a use of cash of $7.6 million. Lastly, we used $24.5 million for purchases of property, equipment and software.

For the year ended December 31, 2019, net cash provided by investing activities was $114.9 million, primarily resulting from $165.1 million in proceeds from our securitization investments, partially offset by $37.6 million in purchases of property, equipment and software. In 2019, we made significant leasehold improvement capital expenditures at our corporate headquarters in San Francisco, California. Lastly, we made our first loan to Apex during 2019, which required a use of cash of $9.1 million.

Cash Flows from Financing Activities

For the year ended December 31, 2021, net cash provided by financing activities was $685.0 million. We received proceeds from the Business Combination and PIPE Investment of $2.0 billion, and paid costs directly related to the Business Combination and PIPE Investment of $27.0 million. We received $9.5 billion of proceeds from debt financing activities related to our lending activities and issuance of convertible notes. These debt proceeds were more than offset by $10.4 billion of debt repayments, of which $9.5 billion were related to our warehouse facilities and $250 million were related to repayment of the seller note. We also had capped call purchases of $113.8 million in connection with the issuance of our Convertible Notes. Our payments of debt issuance costs were in the normal course of business and were primarily reflective of our recurring debt warehouse facility activity, which involves securing new warehouse facilities and extending existing warehouse facilities. We also received proceeds from warrant exercises of $95.0 million. We paid taxes related to RSU vesting of $42.6 million, as well as redeemable preferred stock dividends of $40.4 million. We also received $25.2 million of proceeds from common stock option exercises during the period. Finally, we paid $282.9 million to repurchase redeemable common and preferred stock, and $0.5 million to repurchase common stock during the year.

For the year ended December 31, 2020, net cash provided by financing activities was $853.8 million. We received $10.2 billion of proceeds from debt financing activities, which were primarily attributable to our lending activities and included a $325.0 million draw on our revolving credit facility during the year. These debt proceeds were partially offset by $9.7 billion of debt repayments, $8.6 billion of which were related to our warehouse facilities. Our payments of debt issuance costs were in the normal course of business and reflective of our recurring debt warehouse facility activity, which involves securing new warehouse facilities and extending existing warehouse facilities. We also generated cash of $369.8 million from a common stock issuance in the fourth quarter of 2020. We paid Series 1 redeemable preferred stock dividends of $40.5 million and taxes related to RSU vesting of $31.3 million. These uses were offset by principal repayments of $43.5 million related to our stockholder note receivable, which was fully paid off as of December 31, 2020.

For the year ended December 31, 2019, net cash provided by financing activities was $93.1 million. Our financing activities were primarily driven by proceeds from debt issuances of $12.5 billion, more than offset by principal payments on debt of $12.8 billion. In addition, we generated cash from preferred stock issuances of $573.8 million, gross of issuance costs of $2.4 million. The debt issuance and payment activity was related to our revolving credit facility, warehouse financing facilities, residual interests classified as debt and securitization debt. In May 2019, we issued 26,438,798 shares of Series H and 3,234,000 shares of Series 1 redeemable preferred stock for combined net proceeds of $536.6 million. In October 2019, we issued an additional 4,273,651 shares of Series H preferred stock for proceeds of $34.8 million. In 2019, we paid $23.9 million in dividends on the Series 1 redeemable preferred stock. Additionally, we issued a note receivable to a stockholder, which resulted in a net cash outflow of $43.5 million. Finally, we paid taxes in connection with RSU vesting of $21.4 million.

Other Arrangements

We enter into arrangements in which we originate loans, establish an SPE and transfer loans to the SPE, which has historically served as an important source of liquidity. We also retain the servicing rights of the underlying loans and hold additional interests in the SPE. When an SPE is determined not to be a VIE or when an SPE is determined to be a VIE but we are not the primary beneficiary, the SPE is not consolidated. In addition, a significant change to the pertinent rights of other parties or our pertinent rights, or a significant change to the ranges of possible financial performance outcomes used in our assessment of the variability of cash flows due to us, could impact the determination of whether or not a VIE is consolidated.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

VIE consolidation and deconsolidation may lead to increased volatility in our financial results and impact period-over-period comparability. See Note 1 to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for our VIE consolidation policy.

We established personal loan trusts and student loan trusts that were created and designed to transfer credit and interest rate risk associated with the underlying loans through the issuance of collateralized notes and residual certificates. We hold a variable interest in the trusts through our ownership of collateralized notes in the form of asset-backed bonds and residual certificates in the trusts. The residual certificates absorb variability and represent the equity ownership interest in the equity portion of the personal loan trusts and student loan trusts.

We are also the servicer for all trusts in which we hold a financial interest. Although we have the power as servicer to perform the activities that most impact the economic performance of the VIE, we do not hold a significant financial interest in the trusts and, therefore, we are not the primary beneficiary. Further, we do not provide financial support beyond our initial equity investment, and our maximum exposure to loss as a result of our involvement with nonconsolidated VIEs is limited to our investment. For a more detailed discussion of nonconsolidated VIEs, including activity in relation to the establishment of trusts, the aggregate outstanding values of variable interests and the deconsolidation of VIEs, see Note 6 to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

As a component of our loan sale agreements, we make certain representations to third parties that purchased our previously held loans, which includes FNMA repurchase requirements, general representations and warranties and credit-related repurchase requirements, all of which are standard in nature and, therefore, do not constrain our ability to recognize a sale for accounting purposes. Pursuant to ASC 460, Guarantees, we establish a loan repurchase liability, which is based on historical experience and any current developments which would make it probable that we would buy back loans previously sold to third parties at the historical sales price. Our credit-related repurchase requirements are assessed for loss under ASC 326, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses. During the year ended December 31, 2021, we made repurchases of $8.8 million associated with these arrangements. As of December 31, 2021, we accrued liabilities of $7.4 million related to our estimated repurchase obligation.

Financial Condition Summary

December 31, 2021 compared to December 31, 2020

Changes in the composition and balance of our assets and liabilities as of December 31, 2021 compared to December 31, 2020 were principally attributed to the following:

•a decrease of $555.0 million in cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents. See “Cash Flow and Liquidity Analysis” for further discussion of our cash flow activity;

•an increase of $194.9 million in investments in AFS debt securities, which we began purchasing during the third quarter of 2021;

•an increase in loans of $1.2 billion, primarily stemming from originations and purchases of $13.5 billion, offset by principal payments and sales of $12.3 billion;

•a decrease in equity method investments of $87.8 million, primarily from Apex calling our investment, which resulted in cash proceeds of $107.5 million, offset by a $20.0 million new equity method investment during the third quarter of 2021;

•a decrease in securitization investments of $122.2 million, primarily from collections outpacing new securitization investments in nonconsolidated personal and student loan VIEs;

•a decrease in intangible assets of $70.5 million, primarily due to the amortization of developed technology and customer-related intangible assets acquired in the second quarter of 2020;

•a decrease in related party notes receivable of $17.9 million, as Apex repaid their outstanding loans;

•a decrease of $1.2 billion in gross warehouse facility debt, which was primarily enabled by proceeds received from the Business Combination and PIPE Investment;

•an increase of $1.2 billion related to our issuance of Convertible Notes in the fourth quarter of 2021;

•a decrease of $250.0 million in liabilities related to the settlement in February 2021 of the Galileo seller note;

•a decrease of $595.5 million in liabilities related to gross securitization debt, which was settled with proceeds from related collateral repayments;

•a decrease in warrant liabilities of $40.0 million related to the reclassification of the Series H warrants to permanent equity classification in conjunction with the Business Combination; and

•a decrease of $133.4 million in liabilities related to the exercise of our call option rights in December 2020, for which the payable outstanding at December 31, 2020 was paid in January 2021.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. In preparing our consolidated financial statements, we make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts of assets and liabilities, as well as revenues and expenses. We base our assumptions, judgments and estimates on historical experience and various other factors that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. The results involve judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results could differ materially from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. We regularly evaluate our estimates, assumptions and judgments, particularly those that include the most difficult, subjective or complex judgments and are often about matters that are inherently uncertain. See Note 1 to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for a summary of our significant accounting policies. The most significant judgments, estimates and assumptions relate to the critical accounting policies, which are discussed in detail below. We evaluate our critical accounting policies and estimates on an ongoing basis and update them as necessary based on changes in market conditions or factors specific to us.

Share-Based Compensation

We have offered stock options, RSUs and PSUs to employees and non-employees. We measure and recognize compensation expense for all share-based awards made to employees based on estimated fair values on the date of grant. The compensation expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period for time-based awards with only service conditions. Share-based awards with performance conditions are expensed under the accelerated attribution method based on each vesting tranche. We recognize forfeitures as incurred and, therefore, reverse previously recognized share-based compensation expense at the time of forfeiture. We use the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model (the “Black-Scholes Model”) to estimate the fair value of stock options. RSUs are measured based on the fair values of our underlying common stock on the dates of grant. We estimate the grant-date fair values of PSUs utilizing a Monte Carlo simulation model.

Stock Options

The Black-Scholes Model requires the use of subjective assumptions, including the risk-free interest rate, expected term, expected stock price volatility and dividend yield. The risk-free interest rate assumption was based upon observed interest rates for constant maturity U.S. Treasury securities consistent with the expected term of our stock options. The expected term represents the period of time the stock options are expected to be outstanding and was based on the simplified method. Under the simplified method, the expected term of a stock option is presumed to be the midpoint between the vesting date and the end of the contractual term. Management used the simplified method for stock option grants during the year ended December 31, 2020 due to the lack of sufficient historical exercise data to provide a reasonable basis upon which to otherwise estimate the expected term of the stock options. Expected volatility was based on historical volatility for publicly-traded stock of comparable companies over the estimated expected life of the stock options. In identifying comparable companies, we considered factors such as industry, stage of life cycle and size. We assumed no dividend yield because we do not expect to pay dividends in the near future, which is consistent with our history of not paying dividends. Stock option valuations also depend on the valuation of our common stock on the date of grant, as discussed below.

During the year ended December 31, 2020, our Board of Directors granted a total of 217,275 stock options. No stock options were granted during 2021 and 2019; therefore, a stock option valuation was not necessary. The inputs used for estimating the fair value of stock options granted during the year ended December 31, 2020 are disclosed in Note 13 to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

The following table summarizes the inputs used for estimating the fair value of stock options granted during the year ended December 31, 2020:

InputYear Ended December 31, 2020
Risk-free interest rate0.3% – 1.4%
Expected term (years)5.5 – 6.0
Expected volatility36.5% – 42.5%
Fair value of common stock$6.43 – $6.95

Restricted Stock Units

During the years ended December 31, 2021, 2020 and 2019, our Board of Directors granted a total of 27,481,638, 35,965,456 and 15,922,648 RSUs, respectively, at weighted average share prices of $16.92, $7.79 and $6.47, respectively. The RSU share prices were based on the prevailing fair value of our common stock at the time of each share-based grant. See below for a discussion of our common stock valuation process during the period wherein we started to pursue a public market transaction.

Common Stock Valuations

Prior to us contemplating a public market transaction, due to the absence of an active market for our common stock, the fair value of our common stock, which was used as an input into the valuation of both our stock options and RSUs granted, was determined by our Board of Directors based on a third-party valuation and input from our management. The valuation of our common stock was performed by independent valuation specialists when the Board of Directors believed an event had occurred that would significantly impact the value of our common stock, which was at least on an annual basis, but had been more frequent during the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019. The valuation specialists applied valuation techniques and methods that conformed to generally accepted valuation practices and standards established by the American Society of Appraisers in accordance with Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice. The valuation methodologies and techniques utilized were also consistent with guidance issued by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants in its Accounting and Valuation Guide, Valuation of Privately-Held-Company Equity Securities Issued as Compensation, 2013. They used a number of objective and subjective factors, including:

•prices at which our common and preferred stock had been bought and sold in third-party, arms-length, non-employee based transactions;

•our capital structure and the prices at which we issued our preferred stock and the relative rights and characteristics of the preferred stock as compared to those of our common stock;

•our results of operations, financial position and our future business plans, which included financial forecasts and budgets;

•capital market data on interest rates, yields and rates of return for various investments;

•the material risks related to our business and the state of the development of our target markets;

•the market performance of publicly-traded companies in comparable market sectors;

•external market conditions affecting comparable market sectors;

•the degree of marketability for our common stock, including contractual restrictions on transfer of the units; and

•the likelihood of achieving a liquidity event for our preferred and common stockholders, given prevailing market conditions.

During the third quarter of 2020, once we made intentional progress toward pursuing a public market transaction, we began applying the probability-weighted expected return method (“PWERM”) to determine the fair value of our common stock. The probability weightings assigned to certain potential exit scenarios were based on management’s expected near-term and long-term funding requirements and assessment of the most attractive liquidation possibilities at the time of the valuation. During this process, we assigned probability weightings to “go public” event scenarios and a “stay private” scenario, wherein the enterprise valuation was based on either estimated exit valuations determined from conversations held with external parties or was based on public company comparable net book value multiples at the time of our valuation, respectively. In addition, our “stay private” scenario valuation approach continued to rely on a guideline public company multiples analysis with an option pricing model to determine the amount of aggregate equity value allocated to our common stock. The valuations from 2019 through the third quarter of 2020 also applied discounts for lack of marketability ranging from 16% to 25% to reflect the fact that there was no market mechanism to sell our common stock and, as such, the common stock option and RSU holders would need to wait for a liquidity event to facilitate the sale of their equity awards. In addition, there were contractual transfer restrictions placed on common stock in the event that we remained a private company.

During the fourth quarter of 2020, we valued our common stock on a monthly basis. A common stock transaction that closed in December 2020 at a price of $10.57 per common share, which was of substantial size and in close proximity to the Business Combination, served as the key input for the fair value of our common stock for grants made during the fourth quarter of 2020. We decreased the assumed discount for lack of marketability throughout the fourth quarter of 2020, corresponding with our decreased time to liquidity assumption throughout the quarter, as we became more certain about the possibility of entering into the Business Combination over time, and ultimately assumed no discount for lack of marketability for the month of December 2020.

122

TABLE OF CONTENTS

For the period from January 7, 2021, the date on which we executed the Agreement, through May 28, 2021, the date the Business Combination closed, we determined the fair value of our common stock based on the observable daily closing price of SCH stock (ticker symbol “IPOE”) multiplied by the exchange ratio in effect for such transaction date. For periods subsequent to June 1, 2021, we determined the value of our common stock based on the observable daily closing price of SoFi Technologies stock (ticker symbol “SOFI”).

Application of these approaches and methodologies involves the use of estimates, judgment and assumptions that are highly complex and subjective, such as those regarding our expected operations, market multiples, the selection of comparable public companies, and the probability of and timing associated with possible future events. Changes in any or all of these estimates and assumptions or the relationships between those assumptions impact our valuations as of each valuation date and may have a material impact on the valuation of our common stock.

Performance Stock Units

In the second and third quarters of 2021, we granted performance stock units (“PSUs”), which are restricted common stock awards that vest upon the satisfaction of both service-based and performance-based conditions. The service-based condition for the PSUs generally is satisfied contemporaneously with the performance-based conditions. The performance-based conditions generally are satisfied upon achieving specified performance goals, such as the volume-weighted average closing price of our stock over a 90-trading day period (“Target Hurdles”) and maintaining certain minimum standards applicable to bank holding companies. We record share-based compensation expense for PSUs using the accelerated attribution method for each vesting tranche over the respective derived service period, and only if performance-based conditions are considered probable to be satisfied. We determine the grant-date fair value of PSUs utilizing a Monte Carlo simulation model, which relies on certain key assumptions, including expected stock price volatility, risk-free rate, dividend yield and the closing stock price at grant date. We estimated the volatility of common stock on the date of grant based on the historical volatility of comparable publicly-traded companies. The risk-free interest rate was based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant. Finally, we assumed no dividend yield, as we have not historically paid, nor do we anticipate paying in the near future, dividends on our common stock.

During the year ended December 31, 2021, our Board of Directors granted a total of 23,141,462 PSUs, which had a weighted average grant date fair value of $9.50.

See Note 13 to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for information about share-based compensation expense related to stock options, RSUs and PSUs reflected in our consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss).

Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities

We enter into arrangements in which we originate loans, establish a special purpose entity (“SPE”), and transfer the loans to the SPE. We retain the servicing rights of those loans and hold additional interests in the SPE. We evaluate each such arrangement to determine whether we have a variable interest. If we determine that we have a variable interest in an SPE, we then determine whether the SPE is a VIE. If the SPE is a VIE, we assess whether we are the primary beneficiary of the VIE. To determine if we are the primary beneficiary, we identify the most significant activities and determine who has the power over those activities, and who absorbs the variability in the economics of the VIE.

We periodically reassess our involvement with each VIE in which we have a variable interest. We monitor matters related to our ability to control economic performance, such as management of the SPE and its underlying loans, contractual changes in the services provided, the extent of our ownership, and the rights of third parties to terminate us as the VIE servicer. In addition, we monitor the financial performance of each VIE for indications that we may or may not have the right to absorb benefits or the obligation to absorb losses associated with variability in the financial performance of the VIE that could potentially be significant to that VIE, which we define as a variable interest of greater than 10%.

A significant change to our or other parties’ pertinent rights, or a significant change to the ranges of possible financial performance outcomes used in our assessment of the variability of cash flows due to us, could impact the determination of whether or not a VIE should be consolidated in future periods. VIE consolidation and deconsolidation may lead to increased volatility in our financial results and impact period-over-period comparability. Our maximum exposure to loss as a result of our involvement with consolidated VIEs is limited to our investment, which is eliminated in consolidation. There are no liquidity arrangements, guarantees or other commitments by third parties that may affect the fair value or risk of our variable interests in consolidated VIEs.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Fair Value

Our involvement with VIEs and origination of student loans, personal loans and home loans, which we measure at fair value on a recurring basis, results in Level 2 and Level 3 assumptions having a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Loans do not trade in an active market with readily observable prices. We determine the fair value of our loans using a discounted cash flow methodology, while also considering market data as it becomes available. We classify loans as Level 3 because the valuations utilize significant unobservable inputs.

When we consolidate VIEs, the loans remain on our consolidated balance sheet and are measured at fair value using Level 3 inputs. Moreover, third-party residual claims on these loans are measured at fair value on a recurring basis and are presented as residual interests classified as debt in our consolidated balance sheet. We record subsequent fair value measurement changes in the period in which the change occurs within noninterest income—securitizations in our consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss). We determine the fair value of our residual interests classified as debt using a discounted cash flow methodology, while also considering market data as it becomes available.

Consistent with ASC 325-40, Investments — Other — Beneficial Interests in Securitized Financial Assets, we recognize interest expense related to the residual interests classified as debt over the expected life using the effective yield method, which is effectively a reclassification between noninterest income and interest income for the portion of the overall fair value change attributable to interest expense. On a quarterly basis, we reevaluate the cash flow estimates to determine if a change to the accretable yield is required on a prospective basis. We classify the residual interests classified as debt as Level 3 due to the reliance on significant unobservable valuation inputs.

When we do not consolidate VIEs, we generally hold risk retention interests, which we refer to as securitization investments. In Company-sponsored securitization transactions that meet the applicable criteria to be accounted for as a sale, we retain certain asset-backed bonds, which are measured at fair value on a recurring basis using Level 2 inputs, and residual investments, which are measured at fair value on a recurring basis using Level 3 inputs. Gains and losses related to our securitization investments are reported within noninterest income—securitizations in our consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss). We determine the fair value of our securitization investments using a discounted cash flow methodology, while also considering market data as it becomes available.

For our loans, residual interests classified as debt and securitization investments, the fair value estimates are impacted by assumptions regarding credit performance, prepayments and discount rates. See “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk” for discussion of the sensitivity of our financial instruments measured at fair value to changes in various market risks.

Business Combinations

We account for acquisitions of entities or asset groups that qualify as businesses using the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with ASC 805, Business Combinations. Purchase consideration is allocated to the tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on the estimated fair values as of the acquisition date, which are measured in accordance with the principles outlined in ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement, and which are typically determined in consultation with an independent appraiser.

The determination of fair value requires management to make estimates about discount rates, future expected cash flows, market conditions and other future events that are highly subjective in nature. The judgments made in the determination of the estimated fair value assigned to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, as well as the estimated useful life of each asset and the duration of each liability, could significantly impact the consolidated financial statements in periods after the acquisition, such as through depreciation and amortization expense. Assumptions for the developed technology generally include expected earnings attributable to the asset (including an assumed technology migration curve and contributory asset charges) and an assumed discount rate. Assumptions for the customer-related intangibles generally include estimated annual revenues and net cash flows (including revenue ramp-up periods and customer attrition rates) and an assumed discount rate. Assumptions for the trade names, trademark and domain names generally include expected earnings attributable to the asset, the probability of use of the asset, the royalty rate and an assumed discount rate.

The excess of the total purchase consideration over the fair value of the identified net assets acquired is recognized as goodwill. Acquisition-related costs are expensed as incurred. The results of operations for each acquisition are included in the Company’s consolidated financial results beginning on the respective acquisition date.

124

TABLE OF CONTENTS

During the measurement period, which may be up to one year from the acquisition date, the Company may record adjustments to the allocation of purchase consideration and to the fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed to the extent that additional information becomes available. After this period, any subsequent adjustments are recorded in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss).
