Disclaimer 2 IMPORTANT: You must read the following information before continuing to the rest of the presentation, which is being provided to you for informational purposes only. Forward-Looking Statements This presentation contains forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements include statements regarding projections, estimates and assumptions about Flexiti’s 2020 financial and operational performance; the financial and operational impact of the transaction on us, including our belief that the acquisition enhances our long-term growth profile while reducing regulatory risk and drives revenue, cost and capital synergies; pro forma loan balances and revenue; expected dilution of earnings per share; impacts of scale and margin expansion; the timing of accessing the ABS market and closing of the transaction; cash-flow projections; the timing of the closing of the transaction; estimates of addressable market; and Flexiti’s 2021 and 2022 financial and operational outlook. In addition, words such as “guidance,” “estimate,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “forecast,” “step,” “plan,” “predict,” “focused,” “project,” “is likely,” “expect,” “intend,” “should,” “will,” “confident,” variations of such words and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. The ability to achieve these forward-looking statements is based on certain assumptions, judgments and other factors, both within and outside of our control, that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements, including: the inability of the parties to successfully or timely consummate the proposed transaction, including the risk that any required regulatory approvals are not obtained, are delayed or are subject to unanticipated conditions that could adversely affect the combined company or the expected benefits of the proposed transaction; failure to realize the anticipated benefits of the proposed transaction; risks relating to the uncertainty of projected financial information; the effects of competition on the combined company’s future business; our ability to attract and retain customers; market, financial, political and legal conditions; the impact of COVID-19 pandemic on the combined company’s business and the global economy; our dependence on third-party lenders to provide the cash we need to fund our loans and our ability to affordably access third-party financing; errors in our internal forecasts; our level of indebtedness; our ability to integrate acquired businesses; actions of regulators and the negative impact of those actions on our business; our ability to protect our proprietary technology and analytics and keep up with that of our competitors; disruption of our information technology systems that adversely affect our business operations; ineffective pricing of the credit risk of our prospective or existing customers; inaccurate information supplied by customers or third parties that could lead to errors in judging customers’ qualifications to receive loans; improper disclosure of customer personal data; failure of third parties who provide products, services or support to us; any failure of third-party lenders upon whom we rely to conduct business in certain states; disruption to our relationships with banks and other third-party electronic payment solutions providers as well as other factors discussed in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. These projections, estimates and assumptions may prove to be inaccurate in the future. These forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties that are difficult to predict with regard to timing, extent, likelihood and degree of occurrence. There may be additional risks that we presently do not know or that we currently believe are immaterial that could also cause actual results to differ from those contained in the forward-looking statements. Given these risks and uncertainties, investors should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements as a prediction of actual future results. We undertake no obligation to update, amend or clarify any forward-looking statement for any reason. In addition to U.S. GAAP reporting and IFRS GAAP reporting, we provide certain information on CURO’s adjusted EPS which does not conform to GAAP. We believe this non-GAAP measure enhances the understanding of our performance. Please refer to footnote 2 on slide 7 for definition of this non-GAAP measure.”
