#1Investor Day 2023 blend Welcome to Blend's 2023 Investor Day September 26, 2023#2Forward-Looking Statements and Non-GAAP Financial Measures This presentation contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, which statements involve substantial risks and uncertainties. Forward-looking statements generally relate to future events or Blend's future financial or operating performance. In some cases, you can identify forward looking statements because they contain words such as "may," "might," "will," "should," "expect," "plan," "anticipate," "could," "would," "intend," "target," "project," "contemplate," "believe," "estimate," "predict," "potential" or "continue" or the negative of these words or other similar terms or expressions that concern Blend's expectations, strategy, priorities, plans or intentions. Forward-looking statements in this presentation include, but are not limited to, statements regarding Blend's financial condition and operating performance, including its outlook, market size and growth opportunities, operating model, cash flows and capital expenditures, Blend's ability to generate cash and Blend's cash needs, operating margins, plans for future operations, competitive positions, technological capabilities, strategic relationships, Blend's opportunity to increase market share and penetration in its existing customers, Blend's ability to scale its products and relationships, projections and estimates of mortgage loan origination volumes, other macroeconomic and industry conditions, Blend's ability to improve efficiency, Blend's addressable market, Blend's ability to create long-term value for its customers, and Blend's expectations for revenue growth and sales of its products. If any of the risks or uncertainties related to the forward-looking statements develop or if any of the assumptions related to the forward-looking statements prove incorrect, actual results could differ materially from those projected, expressed, or implied by its forward-looking statements. The forward-looking statements contained in this presentation are also subject to other risks and uncertainties, including those more fully described in Blend's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 and its Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the quarters ended March 31, 2023, and June 30, 2023. All forward-looking statements in this presentation are based on information available to Blend and assumptions and beliefs as of the date hereof, and Blend disclaims any obligation to update any forward-looking statements, except as required by law. In addition to financial information presented in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), this presentation includes certain non-GAAP financial measures, including non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP gross margin %, non-GAAP operating expenses, non-GAAP loss from operations, non-GAAP net loss, free cash flow and unlevered free cash flow. These non-GAAP financial measures adjust the related GAAP financial measures to exclude non-cash stock-based compensation and warrant amortization expense, compensation realignment costs, amortization of acquired intangible assets, impairment of intangible assets and goodwill, restructuring costs, litigation contingencies, and transaction-related costs. These non-GAAP measures are presented for supplemental informational purposes only and should not be considered a substitute for financial information presented in accordance with GAAP. Blend's management uses these non-GAAP financial measures internally in analyzing its financial results and believes they are useful to investors, as a supplement to the corresponding GAAP financial measures, in evaluating Blend's ongoing operational performance and trends, in allowing for greater transparency with respect to measures used by Blend's management in their financial and operational decision making, and in comparing Blend's results of operations with other companies in the same industry, many of which present similar non-GAAP financial measures to help investors understand the operational performance of their businesses. However, it is important to note that the particular items excluded from, or included in, these non-GAAP financial measures may differ from the items excluded from, or included in, similar non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies in the same industry. In addition, other companies may utilize metrics that are not similar to Blend's. The non-GAAP financial information is presented for supplemental informational purposes only and is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to, financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP. There are material limitations associated with the use of non-GAAP financial measures since they exclude significant expenses and income that are required by GAAP to be recorded in Blend's financial statements. Please see the reconciliation tables at the end of this presentation for the reconciliation of GAAP and non-GAAP results. Management encourages investors and others to review Blend's financial information in its entirety and not rely on a single financial measure. This presentation contains statistical data, estimates and forecasts that are based on independent industry publications or other publicly available information, as well as other information based on Blend's internal sources. This information involves many assumptions and limitations, and you are cautioned not to give undue weight to such information. Blend has not independently verified the accuracy or completeness of the information contained in the industry publications and other publicly available information. Accordingly, Blend makes no representations as to the accuracy or completeness of that information nor does Blend undertake to update such information after the date of this presentation. blend#3Blend's Investor Day Agenda 9:00 am 9:30 am 10:00 am 10:30 am 11:00 am 11:30 am 12:00 pm 12:30 pm Blend's Vision Nima Ghamsari | Head of Blend Product Strategy and Innovation Erik Wrobel | Head of Product Product Demos Erik Wrobel & Nima Ghamsari Break Unlocking Customer Value Sebastian Joll Head of Revenue Execution and Operating Rhythm Amir Jafari | Head of Finance & Administration Q&A Session Blend Executive Team Lunch 3#4Investor Day 2023 blend Head of Blend Nima Ghamsari#5Blend's Investor Day Presenters Nima Ghamsari Founder & Head of Blend 20 Erik Wrobel Head of Product Sebastian Joll Head of Revenue WEEN Amir Jafari Head of Finance & Administration 01 5#6Execution since IPO Mortgage Growth Consumer Banking Progress Operations 12% Mortgage Market Share¹ $4M Consumer Banking Revenue 2021 Q3 $66 Mortgage Economic Value per Loan² 90 Consumer Banking Logos ³ $62M Non-GAAP Operating Expenses4 ¹Please refer to footnote 6 in the appendix of this presentation. 2Please refer to footnote 4 in the appendix of this presentation. ³Customer count as of September 30, 2021. 4 GAAP to non-GAAP reconciliation schedules can be found in the appendix to this presentation. 2023 Q3E ~20% Mortgage Market Share¹ ~$6M Consumer Banking Revenue ~$86 Mortgage Economic Value per Loan² 114 Consumer Banking Logos ³ ~$38M Non-GAAP Operating Expenses4 6#7Forum Customer Conference: Innovating for Growth FORUM powered by blend Attended by more than 70 key customers across mortgage and consumer lending CO 3 3:14 G ← Alice Firstimer other questions, fear free to ask.

Forward-looking statements generally relate to future events or Blend's future financial or operating performance. In some cases, you can identify forward looking statements because they contain words such as "may," "might," "will," "should," "expect," "plan," "anticipate," "could," "would," "intend," "target," "project," "contemplate," "believe," "estimate," "predict," "potential" or "continue" or the negative of these words or other similar terms or expressions that concern Blend's expectations, strategy, priorities, plans or intentions. Forward-looking statements in this presentation include, but are not limited to, statements regarding Blend's financial condition and operating performance, including its outlook, market size and growth opportunities, operating model, cash flows and capital expenditures, Blend's ability to generate cash and Blend's cash needs, operating margins, plans for future operations, competitive positions, technological capabilities, strategic relationships, Blend's opportunity to increase market share and penetration in its existing customers, Blend's ability to scale its products and relationships, projections and estimates of mortgage loan origination volumes, other macroeconomic and industry conditions, Blend's ability to improve efficiency, Blend's addressable market, Blend's ability to create long-term value for its customers, and Blend's expectations for revenue growth and sales of its products. If any of the risks or uncertainties related to the forward-looking statements develop or if any of the assumptions related to the forward-looking statements prove incorrect, actual results could differ materially from those projected, expressed, or implied by its forward-looking statements. The forward-looking statements contained in this presentation are also subject to other risks and uncertainties, including those more fully described in Blend's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 and its Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the quarters ended March 31, 2023, and June 30, 2023. All forward-looking statements in this presentation are based on information available to Blend and assumptions and beliefs as of the date hereof, and Blend disclaims any obligation to update any forward-looking statements, except as required by law. In addition to financial information presented in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), this presentation includes certain non-GAAP financial measures, including non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP gross margin %, non-GAAP operating expenses, non-GAAP loss from operations, non-GAAP net loss, free cash flow and unlevered free cash flow. These non-GAAP financial measures adjust the related GAAP financial measures to exclude non-cash stock-based compensation and warrant amortization expense, compensation realignment costs, amortization of acquired intangible assets, impairment of intangible assets and goodwill, restructuring costs, litigation contingencies, and transaction-related costs. These non-GAAP measures are presented for supplemental informational purposes only and should not be considered a substitute for financial information presented in accordance with GAAP. Blend's management uses these non-GAAP financial measures internally in analyzing its financial results and believes they are useful to investors, as a supplement to the corresponding GAAP financial measures, in evaluating Blend's ongoing operational performance and trends, in allowing for greater transparency with respect to measures used by Blend's management in their financial and operational decision making, and in comparing Blend's results of operations with other companies in the same industry, many of which present similar non-GAAP financial measures to help investors understand the operational performance of their businesses. However, it is important to note that the particular items excluded from, or included in, these non-GAAP financial measures may differ from the items excluded from, or included in, similar non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies in the same industry. In addition, other companies may utilize metrics that are not similar to Blend's. The non-GAAP financial information is presented for supplemental informational purposes only and is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to, financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP. There are material limitations associated with the use of non-GAAP financial measures since they exclude significant expenses and income that are required by GAAP to be recorded in Blend's financial statements. Please see the reconciliation tables at the end of this presentation for the reconciliation of GAAP and non-GAAP results. Management encourages investors and others to review Blend's financial information in its entirety and not rely on a single financial measure. This presentation contains statistical data, estimates and forecasts that are based on independent industry publications or other publicly available information, as well as other information based on Blend's internal sources. This information involves many assumptions and limitations, and you are cautioned not to give undue weight to such information. Blend has not independently verified the accuracy or completeness of the information contained in the industry publications and other publicly available information. Accordingly, Blend makes no representations as to the accuracy or completeness of that information nor does Blend undertake to update such information after the date of this presentation. blend#97O Vision Looking ahead to 2026 Clarity Surrounding our cash needs, and operating margins ០០០ Conviction In our foundation for incremental growth#98What we've accomplished so far#99YTD 2023 Highlights January Announced $100 million in annualized run rate savings program March Marketwise reports a 40% increase in ROI on the Blend Mortgage solution 3 major customers go live with Blend mortgage in Q1 2023 May Exceeded first quarter revenue and cost guidance Announced three platform deals onto Blend Builder, including an anchor partnership with Navy Federal Credit Union ¹GAAP to non-GAAP reconciliation schedules can be found in the appendix to this presentation.

Note 2: Mortgage Suite Revenues consist of Mortgage revenue, Mortgage add-on revenue from Blend Income Verification, Blend Close, and Marketplace revenue from Blend Insurance and Blend Realty. Note 3: Mortgage Suite Revenue per Transaction consists of Mortgage Suite revenue for the given period, divided by the number of funded loans from signed Mortgage customers in that same period. The number of funded loans ("Mortgage banking transactions") can be found in this appendix under the heading Mortgage Transactions. Note 4: Economic Value per Funded Loan in our mortgage suite represents the contractual rates for mortgage and mortgage-related products multiplied by the number of loans funded or transactions completed, as applicable, by a customer in the specified period, divided by the total number of loans funded by all Mortgage customers in that same period. Additionally, the value derived from partnerships and verification of income products that is associated with the mortgage application stage is aligned with the timing of funding the related loan (typically a 2.5 month delay from the time of application). We use Economic Value per Funded Loan to measure our success at broadening the client relationships from the underlying mortgage transactions and selling additional products through our software platform. blend#137Footnotes Note 5: Core Mortgage per Funded Loan reflects the contractual rates for our mortgage product, multiplied by the number of loans funded by a customer in the specified period, divided by the total number of loans funded by all Mortgage customers in that same period. Mortgage Attach per Funded Loan reflects the contractual rate for our mortgage-related products, multiplied by the number of transactions completed by a customer in the specified period, divided by the total number of loans funded by all Mortgage customers in that same period. Additionally, Partnerships and Verification of Income contribution, which occurs during the mortgage application stage, is aligned with the timing of funding the related loan (typically a 2.5 month delay from the time of application). Note 6: Market Share is management's calculation of Blend's mortgage market share for the specified period based on funded loan volumes from signed customers. Funded volume is calculated as (i) the number of mortgage banking funded loans processed on the Blend Platform in the period (actual reported funded loans in the period plus an estimate of unreported funded loans for the current quarter), divided by (ii) total mortgage market volume in the same period as calculated using Mortgage Bankers Association data. Mortgage market volumes are updated periodically by management based on updates from the Mortgage Bankers Association and updated Home Mortgage Disclosures Act data which may provide further revisions to historical data from time to time. Note 7: We define Free Cash Flow, a non-GAAP financial measure, as net cash provided by (used in) operating activities less purchases of property and equipment. Free cash flow margin is calculated as Free Cash Flow as a percentage of total revenues. Unlevered Free Cash Flow is Free Cash Flow before cash paid interest. We believe information regarding Free Cash Flow, Free Cash Flow margin and Unlevered Free Cash Flow provide useful information to investors as a basis for comparing our performance with other companies in our industry and as a measurement of the cash generation that is available to invest in our business and meet our financing needs. However, given our debt service obligations (including the existing $225 million term loan under our Credit Agreement due in June 2026) and other contractual obligations, Unlevered Free Cash Flow does not represent residual cash flow available for discretionary expenditures. blend#138Footnotes Note 8: 2026 market scenarios are illustrative only and are not intended to represent guidance on actual outcomes. Each scenario is subject to the assumptions outlined below and other risks and uncertainties. In the Conservative Case, we estimate originations in the U.S. mortgage market to be 5.5 million transactions in 2026 based on our internal analysis of historical mortgage volume cycle averages; we anticipate maintaining our current market share based on internal sensitivity analysis; and we anticipate increasing our economic mortgage revenue per funded loan based on our internal sensitivity analysis. In the Base Case, we estimate originations in the U.S. mortgage to be 6.5 million transactions in 2026 based on our internal analysis of historical mortgage volume cycle averages; we forecast incremental adoption of our add-on products increasing our economic value per funded loan based on our internal sensitivity analysis. In the Market Normalization Case, we estimate originations in the U.S. mortgage market to be 7.0 million based on our internal analysis of historical mortgage volume cycle averages; we forecast further adoption of our add-on products above the base case to increase our economic loan, based upon our internal sensitivity analysis. Note 9: We define non-GAAP Operating Margin, a non-GAAP financial measure, as non-GAAP Net Operating Loss divided by revenue. We define non-GAAP Net Operating Loss, a non-GAAP financial measure, as GAAP Net Operating Loss adjusted to exclude non-cash stock-based compensation and warrant amortization expense, compensation realignment costs, amortization of acquired intangible assets, impairment of intangible assets and goodwill, restructuring costs, litigation contingencies, and transaction-related costs. blend
