Investor Presentaiton
Disclaimer
This presentation contains "forward-looking" statements that are based on our management's beliefs and assumptions and on information currently available to management. Forward-looking statements include
all statements, other than statements of historical fact contained in this presentation, including but not limited to, information or predictions concerning our future financial performance, including our financial
outlook for Q2 2023 under the heading "Outlook", projected growth and other strategies, business plans and objectives, potential market and growth opportunities, competitive position, technological or market
trends and industry environment. Forward-looking statements are inherently subject to risks and uncertainties, some of which cannot be predicted or quantified. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking
statements by terminology such as "may," "will," "should," "could," "expect," "plan," anticipate," "believe," "estimate," "predict," "intend," "potential," "would," "continue," "ongoing" or the negative of these terms or
other comparable terminology. You should not put undue reliance on any forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements should not be read as a guarantee of future performance or results, and will not
necessarily be accurate indications of the times at, or by, which such performance or results will be achieved, if at all.
Forward-looking statements are based on information available at the time those statements are made or management's good faith beliefs and assumptions as of that time with respect to future events, and are
subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual performance or results to differ materially from those expressed in, or suggested by, the forward-looking statements. In light of these risks and
uncertainties, the events and circumstances contemplated by the forward-looking statements made in this presentation may not occur and actual results could differ materially from those anticipated or implied in
the forward-looking statements. These risks and uncertainties are more fully described in our filings and reports that we may file from time to time with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"),
including "Risk Factors" in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to: our future growth prospects and financial
performance; our ability to manage the adverse effects of macroeconomic conditions and disruptions in the credit markets and banking sector, including inflation and related monetary policy changes, such as
increasing interest rates; our ability to access sufficient loan funding, including in the securitization and whole loan sale markets; the effectiveness of our credit decisioning models and risk management efforts; our
ability to retain existing, and attract new, lending partners; and our ability to operate successfully in a highly-regulated industry. Moreover, we operate in very competitive and rapidly changing environments, and
new risks may emerge from time to time. It is not possible for us to predict all risks, nor can we assess the impact of all factors on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may
cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements we may make. Additional information will be available in other future reports that we file with the SEC from time to
time, which could cause actual results to vary from expectations. Except as required by law, Upstart does not undertake any obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statement, whether as a
result of new information, future developments or otherwise.
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 our internal
sources. This information involves many assumptions and limitations, and you are cautioned not to give undue weight to these estimates. We have not independently verified the accuracy or completeness of the
data contained in these industry publications and other publicly available information. Accordingly, we make no representations as to the accuracy or completeness of that data nor do we undertake to update
such date after the date of this presentation.
This presentation includes non-GAAP financial measures, including contribution profit, contribution margin, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, adjusted net income (loss), and adjusted net income (loss) per
share. These non-GAAP financial measures are in addition to, and not as a substitute for or superior to measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. There are a number of limitations
related to the use of these non-GAAP financial measures. For example, other companies may calculate similarly-titled non-GAAP financial measures differently. Refer to slides 27-29 for a reconciliation of these
non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures.
A reconciliation of non-GAAP guidance financial measures to corresponding GAAP guidance financial measures is not available on forward-looking basis without unreasonable effort due to the uncertainty and
potential variability of expenses, such as stock-based compensation expense-related charges, that may be incurred in the future and cannot be reasonably determined or predicted at this time. It is important to
note that these factors could be material to our results of operations computed in accordance with GAAP.
