CEO Commentary

"Fold enters the second half of the year with a stronger balance sheet, a growing Credit Card program, expanded banking and distribution capabilities, and much of the infrastructure needed to support our next generation of products," said Fold Chairman and CEO Will Reeves. "Over the next few months, investors will begin to see these investments come together as we build toward our goal of becoming the most rewarding financial platform in America."

Mr. Reeves continued, "Fold is evolving from a transaction business into a broader financial services platform. Going forward, we intend to not only be the place where customers spend, but also be the place where they hold and manage their assets. Through our own programs and our partnership with Lead Bank, we expect customer balances to generate recurring economics that can help fund richer rewards. The power of asset-driven revenues has been demonstrated across businesses from Starbucks and Venmo, and we believe it can become an important part of Fold's economic model."

He added, "Our proprietary bank-grade core ledger and Lead Bank partnership provide the foundation for this strategy, while expanding our addressable market beyond bitcoin-native customers to anyone looking for a more rewarding way to manage their money. Our conviction in bitcoin remains unchanged, but the opportunity for Fold is becoming significantly larger."

Mr. Reeves concluded, "Q2 remained challenging across the broader Bitcoin industry, with lower bitcoin prices pressuring transaction activity and consumer engagement. These are temporal challenges and do not reflect the underlying health and vitality of this industry. We believe Fold is entering its next chapter with a stronger business model, broader market and the foundation needed to pursue significantly greater scale."

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Adjusted EBITDA

In addition to net income (loss) and other results under GAAP, we utilize non-GAAP calculations of adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization ("Adjusted EBITDA") to monitor the financial health of our business. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net loss, excluding (i) interest expense, (ii) provision for (benefit from) income taxes, (iii) depreciation and amortization, (iv) share-based compensation, (v) remeasurement gains and losses such as fair value remeasurements on our digital assets, convertible notes, and SAFE notes, (vi) impairments, restructuring charges, and business acquisition- or disposition-related expenses that we believe are not indicative of our core operating results, and (vii) legal settlement expenses associated with unusual or non-recurring litigation matters that we believe are not indicative of our core operating results. This non-GAAP financial information has limitations as an analytical tool when assessing our operating performance, is presented for supplemental informational purposes only, should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to, financial information presented in accordance with GAAP, and may be different from similarly titled non-GAAP measures used by other companies.

The above items are excluded from our Adjusted EBITDA measure because these items are non-cash in nature, or because the amount and timing of these items are unpredictable, are not driven by core results of operations, and/or render comparisons with prior periods and competitors less meaningful. We believe Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA per share provide useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating our results of core operations, as well as providing a useful measure for period-to-period comparisons of our business performance. Moreover, Adjusted EBITDA is a key measurement used by our management internally to make operating decisions, including those related to operating expenses, evaluate performance, and perform strategic planning and annual budgeting.

The following table presents a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to the most directly comparable GAAP measure, net loss:
