OnDeck Reports Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2016 Financial Results

Achieves Record Loans Under Management, Origination Volume and Gross Revenue
Announces Cost Rationalization Plan to Accelerate Path to GAAP Profitability
NEW YORK, February 16, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- OnDeck® (NYSE:ONDK), the leader in online lending for small business, today announced fourth quarter and full year 2016 financial results highlighted by continued execution of the company's long-term plan, leading to record levels of Loans Under Management, Originations and gross revenue. For the fourth quarter of 2016, OnDeck increased Loans Under Management by 35% year-over-year to $1.2 billion, Originations by 13% to $632 million, and gross revenue by 21% to $81.8 million. For the full year of 2016, OnDeck loaned over $2.4 billion to small businesses in the U.S., Canada and Australia and earned $291.3 million of gross revenue.
"OnDeck made further progress executing our long-term plan during the fourth quarter of 2016," said Noah Breslow, OnDeck's chief executive officer.  "We continued to benefit from steady growth of Loans Under Management, the expansion of our funding sources, and the signing of new strategic partners.  We also drove continued efficiencies across our operating expense base as our Adjusted Expense Ratio* improved over 400 basis points from the prior year."

“Portfolio delinquencies in the quarter continued to be generally consistent with historical levels,” continued Mr. Breslow. “However, we recorded a higher provision expense, reflecting overall portfolio growth and a $19 million addition to reserves resulting from a recalibration of loss estimates for loans with original maturities of 15 months or longer. Most of these loans were originated in 2016 as part of our expanded offerings to OnDeck customers and, even with the updated loss estimates, continue to generate attractive returns.”

Mr. Breslow added, “We are committed to achieving positive Adjusted EBITDA in 2017 and GAAP profitability in 2018. To that end, we are taking a number of actions to realign our cost structure while continuing to invest in OnDeck's future growth and market leadership.  These actions will produce about $20 million of annual savings relative to our 2016 exit operating expense run rate and will accelerate our path towards achieving our long-term financial targets.”

Review of Financial Results for the Fourth Quarter of 2016
Loans Under Management increased to $1.2 billion, up 35% from the comparable prior year period, driven primarily by 13% growth in originations. Originations were $632 million during the fourth quarter of 2016 and reflected double-digit growth year-over-year across all three of OnDeck's customer acquisition channels. The company's Direct and Strategic channels, combined, grew 12% year-over-year, contributing 72% of total dollar volume, and its Funding Advisor channel grew 17% versus the prior year, contributing 28% of total dollar volume.

Gross revenue increased to $81.8 million during the fourth quarter of 2016, up 21% from the comparable prior year period. The increase in gross revenue was primarily driven by higher interest income, partially offset by lower gain on sale revenue. Interest income increased to $76.1 million during the quarter, up 60% from the comparable prior year period, and primarily reflected the growth of average loans, which increased 68% versus the comparable prior year period. The Effective Interest Yield for the fourth quarter of 2016 was 33.2%, down from 34.2% in the comparable prior year period, primarily reflecting the mix shift of the loan portfolio toward longer average term loans and more Lines of Credit.

Gain on sale was $1.8 million during the fourth quarter of 2016, down 90% from the comparable prior year period. The decline in gain on sale primarily reflected a lower Gain on Sale Rate during the quarter and our decision to reduce the amount of loans sold through OnDeck Marketplace. OnDeck sold $85.6 million1 of loans through OnDeck Marketplace at a 2.1% Gain on Sale Rate during the fourth quarter of 2016, compared to $201.9 million of loans at a 9.0% Gain on Sale Rate in the fourth quarter of 2015. Loans sold or designated as held for sale through OnDeck Marketplace represented 15.8% of term loan originations in the fourth quarter of 2016 compared to 39.8% of term loan originations in the comparable prior year period.

Net revenue was $16.3 million during the fourth quarter of 2016, down 62% versus the comparable prior year period. The decline in net revenue reflected the reduction of OnDeck Marketplace sales, which led to lower gain on sale revenue, and higher provision expense in the fourth quarter. Net revenue margin decreased to 19.9% during the fourth quarter of 2016 from 62.6% in the prior year period, primarily reflecting the decline in net revenue.

Provision for loan losses during the fourth quarter of 2016 increased to $55.7 million, up from $20.0 million in the comparable prior year period. The increase in provision expense reflected the 53% increase in originations of loans designated as held



for investment in the period. The increase also reflected an $18.7 million addition to loan loss reserves for loans with original maturities of 15 months or longer whose performance has deviated, or is expected to deviate, from our reserve model's prior estimates. As a result, the Provision Rate in the fourth quarter of 2016 was 10.2% compared to 5.6% in the comparable prior year period. For the full year of 2016, the Provision Rate was 7.4%.

The 15+ Day Delinquency Ratio was 6.6% in the fourth quarter of 2016, flat with the prior year period but higher sequentially from 6.2% due to the continued seasoning of the portfolio and the increase in delinquency roll rates from historically low levels. The Net Charge-off rate decreased to 14.2% in the fourth quarter of 2016 from 14.6% in the prior year period, but increased sequentially from 11.0%.

The Cost of Funds Rate during the fourth quarter of 2016 was 5.8%, unchanged from the comparable prior year period.

Operating expenses were $52.5 million during the fourth quarter of 2016, up 11% over the comparable prior year period. The increase primarily reflected the overall growth of the company, partially offset by the company's ongoing focus to drive operating efficiencies.

OnDeck has launched a cost rationalization plan that is expected to produce approximately $20 million of annual savings relative to our 2016 exit operating expense run rate. The plan includes an approximately 11% reduction in total headcount from announced layoffs and actual and scheduled attrition. OnDeck incurred a $1.8 million charge in the fourth quarter of 2016 in connection with this initiative.  The cost rationalization plan also includes a reduction in non-labor expenses, primarily within Sales & Marketing and Technology & Analytics.

OnDeck had GAAP net loss attributable to On Deck Capital, Inc. common stockholders of $35.9 million, or $0.50 per basic and diluted share, for the quarter, which compares to GAAP net loss attributable to On Deck Capital, Inc. common stockholders of $4.6 million, or $0.07 per basic and diluted share, in the comparable prior year period.

Adjusted EBITDA was negative $29.2 million for the quarter, versus positive $0.3 million in the comparable prior year period. Adjusted Net Loss was $31.4 million, or $0.44 per basic and per diluted share for the quarter versus Adjusted Net Loss of $1.1 million, or $0.02 per basic and per diluted share, in the comparable prior year period.

Unpaid Principal Balance was $980 million at the end of the fourth quarter, up 80% over the prior year period. The increase primarily reflected OnDeck's decision to retain more loans on its balance sheet in connection with reducing OnDeck Marketplace loan sales throughout 2016.

Total Funding Debt at the end of the fourth quarter of 2016 was $727 million, up 93% over the prior year period, which reflected the growth of Unpaid Principal Balance during the period. OnDeck continued to diversify its funding sources during the fourth quarter, including the expansion of its corporate line of credit and the addition of a new warehouse facility with Credit Suisse. More recently, the company also expanded the funding capacity and extended the maturity of its existing warehouse facility with Ares. The company remains in active discussions to further strengthen its financial flexibility, including opportunities to add new debt facilities, upsize or extend existing debt facilities and enter into additional securitizations. 

At the end of the fourth quarter of 2016, cash and cash equivalents were $80 million, as compared to $86 million at September 30, 2016 and $160 million at December 31, 2015. The decrease in cash and cash equivalents from December 31, 2015 primarily reflected the company's increased funding of loans on its balance sheet.

Guidance for First Quarter and Full Year 2017
OnDeck provided the following guidance for the three months ending March 31, 2017 and full year ending December 31, 2017.

First Quarter 2017

*About Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This press release and its attachments include Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income (Loss), Adjusted Expense Ratio and Adjusted Operating Yield which exclude stock-based compensation, as well as Net Interest Margin and Net Interest Margin After Credit Losses, all of which are financial measures not calculated or presented in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP. We believe these non-GAAP measures provide useful supplemental information for period-to-period comparisons of our business and can assist investors and others in understanding and evaluating our operating results. However, these non-GAAP measures should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to any measures of financial performance calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. Other companies may calculate these or similarly titled non-GAAP measures differently than we do. See “Non-GAAP Reconciliation” later in this press release for a description of these non-GAAP measures and a reconciliation to the most directly comparable financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP.

Notes:
(1) Amounts represent carrying value of loans sold, which includes both unpaid principal balance sold and the remaining carrying value of the net deferred origination costs.
(2) Unpaid Principal Balance represents the total amount of principal outstanding of term loans held for investment, amounts outstanding under lines of credit and the amortized cost of loans purchased from other than issuing bank partners at the end of the period. It excludes net deferred origination costs, allowance for loan losses and any loans sold or held for sale at the end of the period.
(3)Interest Earning Assets represents the sum of Unpaid Principal Balance plus the amount of principal outstanding of loans held for sale in the period. It excludes net deferred origination costs, allowance for loan losses and any loans sold or held for sale at the end of the period.
(4) Loans represents the sum of loans held for investment and loans held for sale during the period.
(5) Loans Under Management represents the Unpaid Principal Balance plus the unpaid principal balance of loans held for sale, excluding net deferred origination costs, plus the amount of principal outstanding of term loans we serviced for others at the end of the period.
(6) Average Balance Sheet Items for the period represent the average as of the beginning of the month in the period and as of the end of each month in the period.
(7) Originations represent the total principal amount of the term loans we made during the period, plus the total amount drawn on lines of credit during the period. Many of our repeat term loan customers renew their term loans before their existing term loan is fully repaid. In accordance with industry practice, originations of such repeat term loans are presented as the full renewal loan principal, rather than the net funded amount, which would be the renewal term loan’s principal net of the unpaid principal balance on the existing term loan. Loans referred to, and funded by, our issuing bank partners and later purchased by us are included as part of our originations.
(8) Effective Interest Yield is the rate of return we achieve on loans outstanding during a period. It is calculated as our business day adjusted annualized interest income divided by average Loans. Annualization is based on 252 business days per year, which is typical weekdays per year less U.S. Federal Reserve Bank holidays. Net deferred origination costs in loans held for investment and loans held for sale consist of deferred origination fees and costs. Deferred origination fees include fees paid up front to us by customers when loans are funded and decrease the carrying value of loans, thereby increasing the Effective Interest Yield earned. Deferred origination costs are limited to costs directly attributable to originating loans such as commissions, vendor costs and personnel costs directly related to the time spent by the personnel performing activities related to loan origination and increase the carrying value of loans, thereby decreasing the Effective Interest Yield earned.
(9) Net Interest Margin, is calculated as business day adjusted annualized Net Interest Income divided by average Interest Earning Assets. Net Interest Income represents interest income less funding cost during the period. Interest income is net of fees on loans held for investment and held for sale. Net deferred origination costs in loans held for investment and loans held for sale consist of deferred origination costs as offset by corresponding deferred origination fees. Deferred origination fees include fees paid up front to us by customers when loans are funded. Deferred origination costs are limited to costs directly attributable to originating loans such as commissions, vendor costs and personnel costs directly related to the time spent by the personnel performing activities related to loan origination. Funding cost is the interest expense, fees, and amortization of deferred debt issuance costs we incur in connection with our lending activities across all of our debt facilities. Annualization is based on 252 business days per year, which is typical weekdays per year less U.S. Federal Reserve Bank holidays.
(10) Marketplace Gain on Sale Rate equals our gain on sale revenue from loans sold through OnDeck Marketplace divided by the carrying value of loans sold, which includes both unpaid principal balance sold and the remaining carrying value of the net deferred origination costs. A portion of loans regularly sold through OnDeck Marketplace are or may be loans which were initially designated as held for investment upon origination. The portion of such loans sold in a given period may vary materially depending upon market conditions and other circumstances.
(11) Cost of Funds Rate is our funding cost, which is the interest expense, fees and amortization of deferred debt issuance costs we incur in connection with our lending activities across all of our debt facilities. For full years, it is calculated as our funding cost divided by average funding debt outstanding and for interim periods it is calculated as our annualized funding cost for the period divided by average funding debt outstanding.
(12) Provision Rate equals the provision for loan losses divided by the new originations volume of loans held for investment, net of originations of sales of such loans within the period. Because we reserve for probable credit losses inherent in the portfolio upon origination, this rate is significantly impacted by the expectation of credit losses for the period’s originations volume. This rate may also be impacted by changes in loss expectations for loans originated prior to the commencement of the period. The denominator of the Provision Rate formula includes the full amount of originations in a period. A portion of loans regularly sold through OnDeck Marketplace are or may be loans which were initially designated as held for investment upon origination. The portion of such loans sold in a given period may vary materially depending upon market conditions and other circumstances.
(13) Reserve Ratio is our allowance for loan losses as of the end of the period divided by the Unpaid Principal Balance as of the end of the period.
(14) 15+ Day Delinquency Ratio equals the aggregate Unpaid Principal Balance for our loans that are 15 or more calendar days past due as of the end of the period as a percentage of the Unpaid Principal Balance for such period. The Unpaid Principal Balance for our loans that are 15 or more calendar days past due includes loans that are paying and non-paying. Because our loans require daily and weekly repayments, excluding weekends and holidays, they may be deemed delinquent more quickly than loans from traditional lenders that require only monthly payments. 15+ Day Delinquency Ratio is not annualized, but reflects balances as of the end of the period.
(15) Net Charge-off Rate is calculated as our annualized net charge-offs for the period divided by the average Unpaid Principal Balance outstanding. Annualization is based on 4 quarters per year and is not business day adjusted. Net charge-offs are charged-off loans in the period, net of recoveries.
(16) Net Interest Margin After Credit Losses (NIMAL), is calculated as our business day adjusted annualized Net Interest Income After Credit Losses divided by average Interest Earning Assets. Net Interest Income After Credit Losses represents interest income less funding cost and net charge-offs during the period. Interest income is net of deferred costs and fees on loans held for investment and held for sale. Net deferred origination costs in loans held for investment and loans held for sale consist of deferred origination costs as offset by corresponding deferred origination fees. Deferred origination fees include fees paid up front to us by customers when loans are funded. Deferred origination costs are limited to costs directly attributable to originating loans such as commissions, vendor costs and personnel costs directly related to the time spent by the personnel performing activities related to loan origination. Funding cost is the interest expense, fees, and amortization of deferred debt issuance costs we incur in connection with our lending activities across all of our debt facilities. Net charge-offs are charged-off loans in the period, net of recoveries. Annualization is based on 252 business days per year, which is typical weekdays per year less U.S. Federal Reserve Bank holidays.



(17) Adjusted Expense Ratio (AER) represents our annualized operating expense, adjusted to exclude the impact of stock-based compensation, divided by average Loans Under Management. Annualization is based on 252 business days per year, which is typical weekdays per year less U.S. Federal Reserve Bank holidays.
(18) Adjusted Operating Yield (AOY) represents our Net Interest Margin After Credit Losses (NIMAL) less the Adjusted Expense Ratio (AER).
(19) Due to the uncertainty regarding and variability of certain items that will affect our expected U.S. GAAP net income (loss) for the first quarter of 2017 and full year 2017, such as stock-based compensation and other items, we are currently unable to provide a reasonable estimate of our U.S. GAAP net income (loss) for these future periods or a corresponding reconciliation to U.S. GAAP net income (loss). Our U.S. GAAP net income (loss) for these future periods will be less favorable than our Adjusted EBITDA for these periods.
(20) Adjusted EBITDA represents our net income (loss), adjusted to exclude interest expense associated with debt used for corporate purposes (rather than funding costs associated with lending activities), income tax expense, depreciation and amortization and stock-based compensation expense. Our use of Adjusted EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool, and you should not consider it in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Some of these limitations are: Although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized may have to be replaced in the future, and Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect cash capital expenditure requirements for such replacements or for new capital expenditure requirements; Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs; Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect the potentially dilutive impact of stock-based compensation; Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect interest associated with debt used for corporate purposes or tax payments that may represent a reduction in cash available to us.
(21) Adjusted Net Income (Loss) represents our net loss adjusted to exclude net loss attributable to non-controlling interest and stock-based compensation expense, each on the same basis and with the same limitations as described above for Adjusted EBITDA.
(22) Adjusted Net Income (Loss) per share represents our net loss adjusted to exclude net loss attributable to non-controlling interest and stock-based compensation expense, each on the same basis and with the same limitations as described above for Adjusted EBITDA, divided by the weighted average common shares outstanding during the period.
(23) Number of loans, or units, equals the total number of term loans funded, plus the total number of lines of credit drawn on for the first time during the period.
