We have grown annualized debit spending to over $14 billion, just one of our high margin fee-based revenue streams. We've also grown our total deposits to $27.3 billion, lowering our funding expense by an estimated $515 million per year.

We are incredibly optimistic about the depth and breadth of the growth opportunities in the loan platform business, and we see it becoming our third billion revenue business. Turning to SoFi Invest, in January we shared that we are accelerating our investment in SoFi Invest, and that decision is already bearing fruit.

Chris: Capital markets activity was very strong in the first quarter, we sold and transferred through a loan platform business $3 $1 billion of personal and home loans.
Chris: In terms of personal loans, we closed $1 $1 billion of sales in whole loan form at a blended execution of 106, 2%.
Chris Lapointe: All deals had similar structures to other recent personal loan sales, with cash proceeds at or near par, and the majority of the premium consisting of contractual servicing fees that are capitalized. These sales included a small loss share provision that is above our base assumption of losses and is immaterial relative to the exposure we would have otherwise had if we had held onto the loans. Additionally, we sold $90 million of late stage delinquent personal loans. By selling these loans, we're able to generate positive incremental value over time versus selling after they charge off, both from our improved recovery capabilities and by maintaining servicing. In terms of home loan sales, we closed $322 million at a blended execution of 102.1%. In addition to our personal and home loan sales, we executed a $698 million securitization of loans originated through our loan platform business.

Chris Lapointe: Our credit trends continue to be strong after seeing delinquencies peak one year ago in the first quarter of 2024. For personal loans, the on balance sheet 90 day delinquency rate was 46 basis points in the quarter, a decrease of 9 basis points sequentially. The annualized charge off rate also declined to 3.31% versus 3.37% in the prior quarter. Had we not sold any late stage delinquencies, we estimate that including recoveries between 90 and 120 days delinquent, we would have had an all in annualized net charge off rate for personal loans of approximately 4.8% versus 4.9% last quarter. For student loans, the on balance sheet 90 day delinquency rate was in line with last quarter at 13 basis points, while our annualized charge off rate decreased 15 basis points to 47 basis points.

Chris Lapointe: The data continues to support our 7% to 8% maximum life loan loss assumption for personal loans in line with our underwriting tolerance, although we continue to trend below these levels. Our recent vintages originated from Q4 2022 to Q2 2024 have net cumulative losses of 4.09% with 43% unpaid principal balance remaining. This is well below the 5.53% observed at the same point in time for the 2017 vintage, the last vintage that approached our 7% to 8% tolerance. The gap between the newer cohort curve and the 2017 cohort curve was widened by a more favorable 16 basis points after widening improvements of 15 basis points in Q4. Additionally, looking at our Q1 2020 through Q4 2024 originations, 59% of principal has already been paid down with 6.7% in net cumulative losses.

Chris: 59% of principal has already been paid down with six 7% and net cumulative losses.
Chris Lapointe: Therefore, for life alone, losses on this entire cohort of loans to reach 8%, the charge off rate on the remaining 41% of unpaid principal would need to be approximately 10%. This would be well above past levels, further underscoring our confidence in achieving loss rates below our 8% tolerance. Turning to our fair value marks and key assumptions, as a reminder, we mark our loans at fair value each quarter, which considers a number of factors including the weighted average coupon, the constant default rate, the conditional prepayment rate, and the discount rate comprised of benchmark rates and spreads. At the end of the first quarter, our personal loans were marked at 105.5%, up 55 basis points from the end of the prior quarter.

Chris: At the end of the first quarter, our personal loans were marked at 105, 5% up 55 basis points from the end of the prior quarter.
Chris Lapointe: This change was primarily a function of the discount rate decreasing by 42 basis points to 4.87% due to the underlying benchmark rate decreasing by 34 basis points, and spreads tightening by 8 basis points. As we've previously noted, both of these changes are empirical based on actual market data, not assumptions. Additionally, any fair value impacts that resulted from interest rates increasing were offset nearly one for one by hedge losses. Additionally, the annual default rate decreased by 18 basis points. Slightly offsetting these impacts was a 14 basis point decrease in the weighted average coupon, and a 52 basis point increase in our conditional prepayment rate. When a borrower prepays, we are still capturing the principal, and the impact to the value of the asset is only based on the premium above par at a given point in time, which is very small relative to the principal outstanding.

Chris Lapointe: At the end of the first quarter, our student loans were marked at 105.2%, up 107 basis points from the end of the prior quarter. This change was a function of the discount rate decreasing by 18 basis points to 4.22%, driven by the underlying benchmark rate decreasing by 38 basis points, partially offset by 20 basis points of spread widening, and a 10 basis point increase in the weighted average coupon. There were no material changes to the annual default rate or the conditional prepayment rate. Turning to our balance sheet, in the first quarter total assets grew by $1.5 billion, driven by $1.6 billion of loan growth and approximately $265 million of growth in cash, cash equivalents, and investment securities, partially offset by a reduction in other assets. Total company wide cash at quarter end was $2.7 billion.

We continue to expect a healthy net interest margin above 5% for the foreseeable future. In terms of our regulatory capital ratios, we remain very well capitalized. Our total capital ratio of 15.5% at quarter end remains comfortably above the regulatory minimum of 10.5%.

Anthony Noto: Hopefully our leadership position as a one stop shop in our competitive advantage with the highest lifetime value is clear, as well as why we want to accelerate our rate of investment and innovation to take advantage of the incredible competitive position we have built. In my mind, our path to our ambition is simple given the superior competitive position we occupy.

Andrew Jeffrey: Hi, thank you very much. I appreciate you taking the question. Terrific results here. Anthony, I know it might be a little bit of a difficult question to answer, but as I look at the very impressive performance of the loan platform business, can you envision a time where SoFi is just materially a fee-based business. What are the implications for that? For deposits different interest rate environments. I just wonder, do you wind up with excess funding, and do you grow loans faster primarily on the.

Anthony Noto: Impressive performance of the loan platform business, can you envision a time where SoFi.
Andrew Jeffrey: Is just materially a fee-based business.
Anthony Noto: What are the implications for that?
Operator: For deposits.
Andrew Jeffrey: Sure.
Anthony Noto: Different interest rate environments. I just wonder, do you wind up with excess funding, and do you grow loans faster primarily on the.
Andrew Jeffrey: A different interest rate environments I just wonder.
Andrew Jeffrey: Wind up with excess funding Andy.
Andrew Jeffrey: Do you grow loans faster.
Andrew Jeffrey: Primarily on that.
Andrew Jeffrey: Yeah.
Andrew Jeffrey: Yeah, you're a little broken up there. I think I got the bulk of your questions. I think the question was do you see a time where, in other words, where we transition to a largely fee-based business. I think you'll see us increasingly change the mix to greater fee-based than we are today. Forty-one percent on an annualized basis is the percent of our revenue from fee-based revenue today, it's broad-based. It's not just the loan platform business. Interchange is becoming a bigger part, in addition to referral revenue, in addition to our ability to drive fees in other smaller businesses that aren't as visible, like our insurance business and our small-medium business, which is both loan referral fees as well as checking and savings fees.
Anthony Noto: Yeah, you're a little broken up there. I think I got the bulk of your questions.

Speaker Change: I think the question was do you see a time where.
Andrew Jeffrey: Yes.
Andrew Jeffrey: Where we transition to a largely fee based business.
Andrew Jeffrey: I think youll see us increasingly.
Andrew Jeffrey: Change the mix to greater fee based than we are today, 41% on annualized basis as a percent of our revenue from fee based revenue today. It's broad based so it's not just the loan platform business interchange is becoming a bigger part. In addition to referral revenue. In addition to our ability to drive fees and other smaller businesses.
Andrew Jeffrey: That aren't as visible like our our insurance business and our small medium.
Andrew Jeffrey: <unk> business, which is both loan referral fees as well as checking and savings fees. So I do think it will continue to increase quite meaningfully, but not just because of the loan platform business I think the thing that would drive it even higher than we anticipate which we do imagine going above 50% is if we can do the loan platform business meaningfully outside of our <unk>.
Andrew Jeffrey: I do think it will continue to increase quite meaningfully, but not just because of the loan platform business. I think the thing that would drive it even higher than we anticipate, which we do imagine is going above 50%, is if we can do the loan platform business meaningfully outside of our credit box. Today, the bulk of our loan platform business is in and about our credit box, just volume that we wouldn't otherwise want to originate on our own balance sheet, both from a credit and risk standpoint. If we can actually deliver loans in the loan platform business that are meaningful outside the credit box, say 600 to 680, then the revenue stream there is going to be even much, much larger than it is today. We are working on that. I'm optimistic we can get some of those deals done.

Andrew Jeffrey: Box today, the bulk of our loan platform business is in and about our credit box just volume that we wouldn't otherwise want to originate on our own balance sheet, both from a credit and risk standpoint.
Andrew Jeffrey: If we can actually deliver low into the loan platform business that are meaningfully outside the credit box. A 600 to 680 then the revenue stream there is going to be even much much larger than it is today. We are working on that I'm optimistic we can get some of those deals done we announced the piece of that today with edge focused but theres a couple of other deals that are quite large that could.
Andrew Jeffrey: We announced a piece of that today with Edge Focus, but there are a couple of other deals that are quite large that could be pretty meaningful, that would drive that higher. The other thing I say about the invest business is that, you know, our outlook and what we're contributing today does not include crypto, which will also be a fee-based business in the invest product itself, but also that we could have a stablecoin pay product with high yield that could drive fees as well. In addition to doing things that I mentioned earlier in the call outside of Invest or stablecoins, the thing I'd say more broadly about this business and our desire to own loans, we do want to put loans in the balance sheet and sell those loans and hold them for sale.

Andrew Jeffrey: The thing I would say more broadly about this business and our desire to own loans, we do want to put loans on the balance sheet and sell those loans and hold them for cell are still on our financing business is an important product for us to have we have that held for investment on a big piece of it but.
Andrew Jeffrey: Our student loan financing business is an important product for us to have. We have that held for investment on a big piece of it, but we'll manage to the best ROE, and that's what will be our guiding light. We want to have an ROE that's in the 20% to 30% range, and we have to have the right mix of products. It can't all be fee based, but we'd like it to be more than 50% for sure.

Chris Lapointe: Great morning, guys. Nice results, and thanks for taking it. The questions I wanted to touch a little bit on, specifically the tech platform and pipeline. I know you guys have a lot of wins that are coming live later this year, but just wanted to see if, given some of the recent market volatility and kind of macro uncertainty, has there been any change, whether it's in client appetite or decision making, or any slowing or change in activity that we should be mindful of given the volatility over the last few weeks.

Andrew Jeffrey: Great.
Andrew Jeffrey: Guys nice results and thanks for taking the questions.
Andrew Jeffrey: I wanted to touch a little bit odd.
Andrew Jeffrey: Uh huh.
Andrew Jeffrey: Specifically the tech platform and pipeline.
Andrew Jeffrey: You guys have a lot of wind in the circular.
Andrew Jeffrey: Coming live later this year, but just wanted to see if given some of the recent market volatility and kind of macro.
Andrew Jeffrey: Certainty has there been any change whether its in client appetite or decision, making or any slowing or change in activity that we should be mindful of.
Andrew Jeffrey: Given the volatility over the last few weeks.
Andrew Jeffrey: No change in our outlook for the tech platform business long term. We still have a very strong conviction that is important for the SoFi businesses and helping us deliver our sustainable competitive advantage in the highest lifetime value. Owning that tech allows us to not just have lower cost, but allows us to have superior unit economics, and allows us to innovate at a much faster rate. It is a part of owning it for the SoFi business, but the other piece is providing the rest of the world technology services, and our outlook for that is unchanged even with the more recent volatility around tariffs in the economy and other concerns. We've signed a number of partners that will be integrated this year, and they'll contribute the revenue in 2026.
Anthony Noto: No change in our outlook for the tech platform business long term.

Andrew Jeffrey: No change in our outlook for the Tech platform business long term, we still have a very strong conviction that it is important for the sofa businesses and helping us deliver our sustainable competitive advantage in the highest lifetime value owing that tech allows us to not just have lower costs, but allows us to have superior unit economics and allows us to innovate at a much faster rate.
Andrew Jeffrey: And so it is.
Andrew Jeffrey: Part of owning it as for the sofa business, but the other piece is providing the rest of the world technology services and our outlook for that is unchanged, even with the more recent volatility around tariffs and the economy and other concerns we've signed a number of partners that will be integrated this year and they'll contribute to revenue in 2026, our outlook for this year is.
Andrew Jeffrey: Our outlook for this year is unchanged in terms of revenue guidance, as well as longer term. I do think there could be an acceleration in 2024 relative to 2025 in terms of the number of new deals and the impact they could have because of the fact that people are starting to move more aggressively into innovative areas, and they can no longer compete from an innovative standpoint. If you're a traditional financial institution or you're a big consumer brand that has financial services products, you really have gotten away the last three years without innovating. The reason we've gotten away with it is because of the regulatory environment, because the backdrop of the economy and interest rates going higher, but an environment where interest rates stay stable where we're at and we have a stable economy.

Andrew Jeffrey: I do think there could be an acceleration in 2026 relative to 2025 in terms of the number of new deals won and the impact they could have because of the fact that people are starting to move more aggressively into innovative areas and they can no longer compete from an innovative standpoint, if you're a traditional financial institution.
Andrew Jeffrey: Or you are a big consumer brand that has financial services products, you really have gotten away. The last three years without innovating and the reason we've gotten away from a way with it is because of the regulatory environment because of the backdrop of the economy and interest rates going higher, but an environment, where interest rates stay stable, where right and we have a stable economy. These function institutions need to start to.
Andrew Jeffrey: You know, these financial institutions need to start to compete or they're going to keep losing share. You can see the rate of innovation happening in the private markets. We have more inbound calls than we've ever had for acquisitions, and more inbound calls for partnerships than we've had in three years. It's because of the fact that capital is coming back to the fintech sector. It's because the interest rates are now stabilizing, and people can start to start to reinvest. That's the opportunity set for us. It's up to us to deliver, and we feel confident we'll be able to deliver our share against the tech platform business, and for SoFi more broadly, for that matter.

Andrew Jeffrey: You know, I'll let Chris add in more holistically, but I'll tell you, when the tariff and volatility stuff happened, I thought some of our deals would get delayed in investment committee or other factors. We've seen that happen in the past. When you had shelter in place for Covid, things came to a screeching halt. Other things have happened in the last seven years related to dislocations and liquidity, etc. We didn't see any slowdown when the tariff and volatility stuff happened. There was no slowdown. In fact, people were moving just as fast, and it was a pleasant surprise. That's on the near term. I'll let Chris talk about more holistically, the appetite for our assets, and the general sector trend that we're seeing. Yeah.
Anthony Noto: You know, I'll let Chris add in more holistically, but I'll tell you, when the tariff and volatility stuff happened, I thought some of our deals would get delayed in investment committee or other factors.

Speaker Change: On the near term ill, let Chris talk about more holistically, the appetite for our assets and the general secular trend that we're seeing yeah. So overall.
Chris Lapointe: Yeah. Overall, the strength of the capital markets remain extremely strong, including the loan platform business. This quarter, we ended up selling, or transferring over $3 billion of personal and home loans at really strong execution levels. That's over $12 billion of annualized demand in Q1 alone. As we mentioned in our prepared remarks, we also signed over $8 billion of LPB partnerships between Blue Owl, Fortress, and Edge Focus. These recently announced partnerships and other deals are going to drive an acceleration in LPB volume in Q2. Overall, really pleased with how the LPB business has developed, and we're feeling good about the demand both from capital markets investors, as well as from our members.
Chris Lapointe: Overall, the strength of the capital.
Chris: The strength of the capital markets remains extremely strong, including the loan platform business. This quarter and we ended up selling are transferring over $3 billion of personal and home loans at really strong execution levels.

Chris: <unk> signed over $8 billion of LTV partnerships between Blue our fortress and edge focus. These recently announced partnerships in other deals are going to drive an acceleration in <unk> volume in Q2. So overall really pleased with how the LTV business has developed and we're feeling good about the demand both from capital markets investors as well.
Chris: As from our members and I don't think people truly appreciate the staff.
Andrew Jeffrey: I don't think people truly appreciate this stat. We underwrite around $20 billion of loan originations, give or take. That's not meant to be, God, it's just a round number. We decline $100 billion of loan applicants. $100 billion. That means we've done all the work of building our brand, of driving the demand, of going through an application process to tell $100 billion, more than $100 billion, no. That is a huge opportunity for us, and it's going to be high margin, no capital required, low, low credit risk. Obviously, those loans are being taken away a couple of days after they're underwritten. It is a big, big opportunity. Don't sleep on the loan platform business holistically.
I don't think people truly appreciate this stat. We underwrite around $20 billion of loan originations, give or take. That's not meant to be, God, it's just a round number.

Chris: We under right around $20 billion of loan originations give or take that's not meant to be guidance. Just a round number we declined a $100 billion of loan applicants by 101 billion.
Chris: That means we've done all the work of building our brand of driving the demand of going through an application process to tell $100 billion more than $100 billion note that as a huge opportunity for us and it's going to be high margin.
Chris: No capital required low low credit risk, obviously, those loans are being taken away a couple of days after their underwritten as soon as a a big big opportunity. So don't sleep on the lone platform business Holistically.
Chris: Yes.
Operator: The next question comes from Jeff Adelson from Morgan Stanley. Jeff, please go ahead. Your line is open.

Speaker Change: The next question comes from Jeff <unk> from Morgan Stanley. Please go ahead. Your line is open.
Chris: Yeah.
Jeff Adelson: Hey, good morning. Thanks for taking my questions. Just a couple questions for me. Can you talk a little bit more about how you might position the student loan business if Congress ultimately decides to cap some of the programs out there in Grad Plus, Parent Plus? I know historically that's been more of a source for your refi business over time. Would you be looking to do a little bit more on the in-school graduate side if that happened? Chris, if you could also just maybe touch on the take rate and the loan platform business. It looked like it increased on the non-referral side this quarter up to about 4.7% as a percent of those originations. Should we be thinking about that as kind of like the sustainable run rate from here or should it?
Jeff Adelson: Hey, good morning. Thanks for taking my questions. Just a couple questions for me. Can you talk a little bit more about how you might position the student loan business if Congress ultimately decides to cap some of the programs out there in Grad Plus, Parent Plus? I know historically that's been more of a source for your refi business over time. Would you be looking to do a little bit more on the in-school graduate side if that happened?
Chris: Hey, good morning, Thanks for taking my questions.
Chris: Just a couple of questions from me can you talk a little bit more about how you might possess.
Chris: Position the student loan business.
Chris: Gross ultimately decides to.
Chris: Cap some of the programs out there and grab plus parent plus I know.
Chris: Historically, that's been more of a source for your refi business over time would you be looking to do a little bit more of the in school and graduate side if that happen.
Chris, if you could also just maybe touch on the take rate and the loan platform business. It looked like it increased on the non-referral side this quarter up to about 4.7% as a percent of those originations. Should we be thinking about that as kind of like the sustainable run rate from here or should it? You know, was there anything sort of one off in that number? Thanks.
Chris: Chris If you could also just maybe touch on the take rate on the.
Chris: Loan platform business it looked like it increased on the non referral side this quarter up to about four 7%.
Chris: Some of those originations so should we be thinking about that as kind of like the sustainable run rate from here or should or was there anything sort of one off in that number.
Jeff Adelson: You know, was there anything sort of one off in that number?
Anthony Noto: Thanks.
Andrew Jeffrey: Jeff, on your first question as it relates to student loans, you're really referring to the in-school student loan market. That's a product that we launched six years ago. It's an important product in terms of our mission being there for all the major financial decisions in our members' lives in the days in between. If the government backs away from providing in-school loans, grad plus, et cetera, et cetera, we'll absolutely capture that opportunity. By the way, those loans are a lot more attractive than our refinance student loans. They come at a higher whack, and they're also typically backed by a co-borrower and a parent.
Speaker Change: So Jeff on your first question as it relates to student loans, you are really referring to the in school student loan market. That's a product that we launched <unk>.
Anthony Noto: Jeff, on your first question as it relates to student loans, you're really referring to the in-school student loan market. That's a product that we launched six years ago. It's an important product in terms of our mission being there for all the major financial decisions in our members' lives in the days in between. If the government backs away from providing in-school loans, grad plus, et cetera, et cetera, we'll absolutely capture that opportunity. By the way, those loans are a lot more attractive than our refinance student loans. They come at a higher whack, and they're also typically backed by a co-borrower and a parent.
Chris: Seven or sorry, six years ago.
Chris: An important product in terms of our mission of being there for all the major financial decisions and our members' lives in the days in between so if the government backs away from providing in school loans Grad, plus et cetera, et cetera, we will absolutely capture that opportunity by the way those loans are a lot more attractive than a refinance student loans.
Chris: Come at a higher WAC and Theyre also typically backed by.
Chris: Co borrower in our parent and so they're great ROE products, and we would love to do as much as we can in that market and we'd be very happy to step in and for the government. In addition to the fact that we would not only underwrite the in school loans when those students graduate and go get jobs and drive great credit scores will refinance those.
Andrew Jeffrey: They are great ROE products, and we would love to do as much as we can in that market. We'd be very happy to step in for the government. In addition to the fact that we would not only underwrite the in-school loans, when those students graduate and go get jobs and drive great credit scores, we'll refinance those loans. It will be a double bottom line from the standpoint that it's a revenue stream, sort of day one, but it's also a member that becomes part of the ecosystem of SoFi, and there's going to be a high lifetime value to someone that takes out an in-school loan from us relative to someone that refinances from us.

Chris: Loans.
Chris: So it'll be a double bottom line from the standpoint that if the revenue stream sort of day one but it is also a member that becomes part of the ecosystem of <unk>.
Chris: And there's going to be a high lifetime value to someone that takes out an in school loan from us relative to some of that refinances from us.
Chris Lapointe: Yeah.
Chris Lapointe: Yeah. On your second question, as it relates to the loan platform business take rate, we are really excited about the momentum that we have there and our improved monetization. You saw that quarter over quarter. I think part of it is as a result of the excess demand that we're seeing from loan investors, which is enabling us to create some pricing tension in some of these partnerships.
Chris Lapointe: On your second question, as it relates to the loan platform business take rate, we are really excited about the momentum that we have there and our improved monetization. You saw that quarter over quarter. I think part of it is as a result of the excess demand that we're seeing from loan investors, which is enabling us to create some pricing tension in some of these partnerships. In terms of the long-term guide on the take rate, what I would think about is each deal is structured a little bit differently, and the majority of the deals that we've done have been within our credit box or stage stuff that we would otherwise hold on the balance sheet, but we haven't because we're happy with the size of our balance sheet.
And then on your second question as it relates to the lone platform business take rate. We are really excited about the momentum that we have there and our improved monetization you saw that quarter over quarter I think part of it is as a result of the excess demand that we're seeing from loan investors, which is enabling us to create some pricing tension in some of.
Chris: These partnerships in terms of the long term guide on the take rate the what I would think about it is each deal is structured a little bit differently and the majority of the deals that we've done has been within our credit box or stuff that we would otherwise hold on the balance sheet, but we havent because we're happy with the size of our balance sheet as.
In terms of the long-term guide on the take rate, what I would think about is each deal is structured a little bit differently, and the majority of the deals that we've done have been within our credit box or stage stuff that we would otherwise hold on the balance sheet, but we haven't because we're happy with the size of our balance sheet. As we start addressing the large TAM that Anthony mentioned of the $100 billion that we're currently declining right now on an annual basis, you'll see that take rate fluctuate.
Chris Lapointe: As we start addressing the large TAM that Anthony mentioned of the $100 billion that we're currently declining right now on an annual basis, you'll see that take rate fluctuate.
Anthony Noto: We start addressing the large Tam that Anthony mentioned of the $100 billion.
Anthony Noto: That were currently declining right now on an annual basis Youll see that take rate fluctuate.
Operator: The next question comes in.
Operator: The next question comes in.
Anthony Noto: The next question comes and that overall the only other thing.
Chris Lapointe: Overall, the only other thing.
Chris Lapointe: Overall, the only other thing.
Operator: Sorry, go ahead.
Operator: Sorry, go ahead.
Anthony Noto: Sorry go ahead, yeah, sorry, before you go Devin the only other thing I would I would say is that overall the economics remain extremely healthy these are high high margin.
Chris Lapointe: Yeah, sorry.
Chris Lapointe: Yeah, sorry. Before you go, Devin, the only other thing I would say is that overall the economics remain extremely healthy. These are high, high margin unit economics for the LTB business.
Andrew Jeffrey: Before you go, Devin, the only other.
Chris Lapointe: Thing I would say is that overall the economics remain extremely healthy. These are high, high margin unit economics for the LTB business.
Anthony Noto: Net economics for the LTV business.
Anthony Noto: Okay.
Operator: Go ahead, Devin, your line is open.
Operator: Go ahead, Devin, your line is open.
Anthony Noto: Go ahead, Kevin Your line is open.
Chris Lapointe: Okay, great. Good morning, Anthony and Chris. How are you guys? Great.
Devin Ryan: Okay, great. Good morning, Anthony and Chris. How are you guys?
Speaker Change: Okay, Great Good morning, Anthony and Chris how are you guys.
Anthony Noto: Great.
Anthony Noto: Great.
Anthony Noto: Just a question on.
Devin Ryan: Just a question on. Yeah, good. Question on just kind of volatility in the market kind of post quarter end. Obviously, a lot of moving parts here, but one piece of forward Fed fund expectations have come down quite a bit over the past month. Just curious, kind of how we should think about implications on deposit costs, what type of betas you guys are estimating, and then also what are the implications on deposit growth if short term rates follow market expectations? Thanks.
Chris Lapointe: Yeah, good.
Anthony Noto: Yes. Good question I'll, just kind of volatility in the market kind of post quarter end, obviously, a lot of moving parts here, but one piece of Ford Fed fund expectations have come down quite a bit over the past month, and just curious kind of how we should think about implications on deposit costs.
Anthony Noto: Question on just kind of volatility in the market.
Chris Lapointe: Kind of post quarter end. Obviously, a lot of moving parts here, but one piece of forward Fed fund expectations have come down quite a bit over the past month.
Anthony Noto: Just curious, kind of how we should.
Chris Lapointe: Think about implications on deposit costs, what type of betas you guys are estimating, and then also what are the implications on deposit growth if short term rates follow market expectations? Thanks.
Anthony Noto: The beta is you guys are estimating and then also what are the implications on deposit growth in short term rates follow market expectations. Thanks.
Andrew Jeffrey: Yeah, Chris and I will tag team this. In the quarter, you saw that our members within SoFi Money grew 41%, our deposits grew 52%. We're seeing positive deposit trends not just from new SoFi Money members, but from existing deposit members. What I'd say is this: we have a competitive advantage, and that competitive advantage is that we have an insured depository entity in a SoFi Bank, and we have four loan products. Most companies that are not banks that are providing an interest rate on deposits are doing it on the back of a sponsor bank. Those deals are limited in terms of what the APY they can offer. They're typically fed funds plus 20 basis points. It can't be more than that. If it is, it's marginally more, maybe fed funds plus 30 basis points. It is limited.
Anthony Noto: Yeah, Chris and I will tag team this. In the quarter, you saw that our members within SoFi Money grew 41%, our deposits grew 52%. We're seeing positive deposit trends not just from new SoFi Money members, but from existing deposit members. What I'd say is this: we have a competitive advantage, and that competitive advantage is that we have an insured depository entity in a SoFi Bank, and we have four loan products. Most companies that are not banks that are providing an interest rate on deposits are doing it on the back of a sponsor bank. Those deals are limited in terms of what the APY they can offer. They're typically fed funds plus 20 basis points. It can't be more than that. If it is, it's marginally more, maybe fed funds plus 30 basis points. It is limited.
Anthony Noto: Yes, Chris and I will tag team. This in the quarter you saw that our members within so far money grew 41% of our deposits grew 52%. So we're seeing positive deposit trends not just from new.
Anthony Noto: So phi money members, but from existing deposit members.
Anthony Noto: What I'd say is this we have a competitive advantage and that competitive advantage is that we have and insured depository entity. So five bank and we have four loan products. Most companies that are not banks that are providing and interest rates on deposits are doing it on the back of a sponsor bank in those deals.
Anthony Noto: Our limited in terms of what the API. They can offer their typically fed funds plus 20 basis points it can't be more than that and if it is it's marginally more maybe fed funds plus 30 basis points. It is limited and so it's a really tough strategy to try to live in a world that you want to be a holistic one stop shop and have a limit on what you could do.
Andrew Jeffrey: It's a really tough strategy to try to live in a world that you want to be a holistic one stop shop and have a limit on what you could do in any product, whether it's an interest rate on loans or interest rates on deposits. We have an unencumbered capability to compete on APY if we need to, and we will because we have such a strong ROE business from our lending business that can fund those deposits. On the margin, I don't know anyone that can outcompete us on the APY. Now, you may say, geez Anthony, there are banks with trillion dollars of assets that can do it.
It's a really tough strategy to try to live in a world that you want to be a holistic one stop shop and have a limit on what you could do in any product, whether it's an interest rate on loans or interest rates on deposits.

Anthony Noto: In any product, whether it's the interest rate on loans or interest rates on deposits. We have an unencumbered capability to compete on AP Oi, if we need to and we will because we have such a strong ROE business from our lending business that can fund those deposits and so on the margin I don't know anyone that can out compete us on the API.
Anthony Noto: Now you May say Gee, Anthony Thanks, a trillion dollars of assets that can do it they're not going to do it they could if they chose to but theyre not going to do it. They have a deposit base that is a super low cost of funds and they have no interest in raising the API to have more deposits because they just don't need it to length, but the people that wanted to get into the business and compete with us with primary accounts.
Anthony Noto: They are not going to do it.
They are not going to do it. They could if they chose to but they're not going to do it. They have a deposit base that is a super low cost of funds. They have no interest in raising the APY to have more deposits because they just don't need it to lend. The people that want to get into the business and compete with primary accounts, they're not going to be able to compete with us unless they become a bank and they have the lending business to fund that APY.
Andrew Jeffrey: They could if they chose to.
Anthony Noto: They're not going to do it.
Andrew Jeffrey: They have a deposit base that is.
Anthony Noto: A super low cost of funds.
Andrew Jeffrey: They have no interest in raising the APY to have more deposits because they just don't need it to lend. The people that want to get into the business and compete with primary.
Anthony Noto: Accounts, they're not going to be able.
Anthony Noto: They're not going to be able to compete with us unless they become a bank and they have a lending business to fund that API. So I couldn't feel better about our position there and how competitive we can be in.
Andrew Jeffrey: To compete with us unless they become a bank and they have the lending business to fund that APY. I couldn't feel better about our position there and how competitive we can be. Again, it will just drive that viral capabilities of all of our products, cross sell, and cross buy. I do think APYs are largely going to come down in the industry, but ours is going to be in that top tier and maintain that top tier. We've never gone to the state of where we needed to be at the very top and to maybe even use it as a loss leader. I don't think we have to get there, but we actually have the capability to do it and make it up on the lending side. I couldn't be more enthusiastic about our competitive positioning.
I couldn't feel better about our position there and how competitive we can be. Again, it will just drive that viral capabilities of all of our products, cross sell, and cross buy.

I don't think we have to get there, but we actually have the capability to do it and make it up on the lending side. I couldn't be more enthusiastic about our competitive positioning.There's a lot of noise people are making out there that they want to compete with us in that area, and I welcome it.
Anthony Noto: And again it will just drive that viral capabilities of all of our products and cross sell and cross buy but.
Anthony Noto: But I do think <unk> largely going to come down in the industry, but ours is going to be in that top tier and maintain that top tier we've never gone to the state of where we needed to be at the very top end to maybe even use it as a loss leader I don't think we have to get there, but we actually have the capability to do it and make it up on the lending side, so I couldn't be more enthused.
Anthony Noto: You asked about our competitive positioning and there's a lot of noise people were making out there that they want to compete with us in that area and I welcome it.
Andrew Jeffrey: There's a lot of noise people are making out there that they want to compete with us in that area, and I welcome it.
Chris Lapointe: The only other thing I would add, because Anthony kind of hit on the betas, but to put some more specifics, historically we've been operating in the 65% to 70% deposit beta range. In terms of overall outlook and what's baked into our guidance, we're at the point where, at our long-term funding target of about 85% to 90% of being member deposit funded, all else being equal, we'd like to grow total deposits at a similar pace to overall loans, which we've said in the last earnings call of single-digit billions. However, if we're continuing to see exceptionally strong member demand, we can grow a bit faster and deploy that funding incremental into funding incremental loans or other assets. We also have other ways that we can manage deposits on the balance sheet. We're not going to stymie member growth at all costs.

Anthony Noto: Being remember deposit funded so all else being equal we like to grow total deposits at a similar pace to overall loans.
Anthony Noto: We've said in the last earnings call of single digit billions. However, if we're continuing to see exceptionally strong member demand, we can grow a bit faster and deploy that funding incremental into funding incremental loans or other assets.
Anthony Noto: And then we also have other ways that we can manage deposits on the balance sheet. So we're not going to stymie member growth at.
Anthony Noto: At all costs.
Operator: The next question comes from Bridget Smith from JP Morgan. Please go ahead. Your line is open.
Operator: The next question comes from Bridget Smith from JP Morgan. Please go ahead. Your line is open.
Anthony Noto: The next question comes from Reggie Smith from Jpmorgan. Please go ahead. Your line is open.
Anthony Noto: Okay.
Could you please.
Anthony Noto: Okay.
Chris Lapointe: Sorry about that.
Chris Lapointe: Sorry about that.
Anthony Noto: Sorry about that.
Anthony Noto: Congrats on the corner. A lot of questions about, you know.
Reggie Smith: Congrats on the corner. A lot of questions about, you know kind of macro uncertainty, and these times are very unique in the sense that, you know, I can't think of another period where we had a pre signaled, you know, potential shock. Usually things happen and we don't know that they're going to happen. I guess my question, Anthony, is how. It sounds like your funding partners are not linked at all. I'm curious how you guys underwrite approach underwriting in this type of environment where you've got, you know, potentially like a binary outcome. Have you made any changes or like how are you guys approaching that specific to your personal loan business? Thank you.
Anthony Noto: Congrats on the quarter.
Anthony Noto: A lot of questions about kind of macro uncertainty.
Chris Lapointe: Kind of macro uncertainty, and these times are very unique in the sense that, you know, I can't think of another period where we had a.
Anthony Noto: And this is.
Anthony Noto: These times are very unique in a sense that you know.
Anthony Noto: I can't think of another period, where we had a.
Anthony Noto: Pre signaled, you know, potential shock. Usually things happen and we don't know that they're going to happen.
Anthony Noto: Three signalled potential shock.
Speaker Change: Usually things happening noted they've got to happen I guess my question Anthony is how and it sounds like Youre finding partners in that linked at all but I'm curious.
Chris Lapointe: I guess my question, Anthony, is how.
Anthony Noto: It sounds like your funding partners.
Chris Lapointe: Are not linked at all.
Anthony Noto: I'm curious how you guys underwrite.
Speaker Change: You guys underwrite or approach underwriting in this type of environment, where you've got potentially a binary outcome.
Chris Lapointe: Approach underwriting in this type of environment where you've got, you know, potentially like a binary outcome. Have you made any changes or like how are you guys approaching.
Speaker Change: Have you made any changes or like how are you guys approaching.
Speaker Change:
Anthony Noto: That specific to your personal loan business?
Speaker Change: Specific to your personal loan business. Thank you.
Chris Lapointe: Thank you.
Andrew Jeffrey: Yeah. From a credit policy standpoint, we have an early warning dashboard across a number of external, internal, macro, and microeconomic factors that kind of dictate how we approach credit. In the past, when those indicators have become red, we cut back on credit, and we tighten our credit box. We can underwrite across eight different tiers. There is a period in the last three years where we cut back tier 8, tier 7, and tier 6, and just underwrote through tier 5. We're, as Chris has talked about multiple times, managing to a life alone lifetime loss of 8%. While in a recession, life alone losses go up. The way you maintain an 8% lifelong loss when losses go up because of a recession or dislocation is you stop underwriting those higher tiers that have higher losses. That's philosophically how we approach it.
Anthony Noto: Yeah. From a credit policy standpoint, we have an early warning dashboard across a number of external, internal, macro, and microeconomic factors that kind of dictate how we approach credit. In the past, when those indicators have become red, we cut back on credit, and we tighten our credit box. We can underwrite across eight different tiers. There is a period in the last three years where we cut back tier 8, tier 7, and tier 6, and just underwrote through tier 5. We're, as Chris has talked about multiple times, managing to a life alone lifetime loss of 8%. While in a recession, life alone losses go up. The way you maintain an 8% lifelong loss when losses go up because of a recession or dislocation is you stop underwriting those higher tiers that have higher losses. That's philosophically how we approach it.
Speaker Change: Yeah. So from a credit policy standpoint, we have early warning dashboard across a number of external internal macro and microeconomic factors that kind of dictate how we approach credit in the past when those indicators have become red we cut back on credit and we tightened our credit box, we can underwrite across.
Speaker Change: A different tiers there is a period in the last three years, where we cut back tier a tier 7% tier section just underwrote through tier five we're as Chris has talked about multiple times, we're managing to.
Speaker Change: Life of loan lifetime loss of 8%, while in a recession life of loan losses go up the way you maintain an 8%.
Speaker Change: Life of loan loss when losses go up because of a recession or dislocation as you stop underwriting those higher tiers that have higher losses. So thats philosophically, how we approach it and from a credit policy standpoint.
Andrew Jeffrey: From a credit policy standpoint, you know, the economic indicators, they're definitely volatile right now, but not to the point that we need to change our underwriting standards, and our credit performance has remained really strong. You know, we look at entry rates, we look at 90 day delinquencies, and obviously we look at NCLs, all of which have continued to improve and remain very steady. I'd say the American consumer is actually doing quite well, and we haven't seen signs that cause us to get concerned. We're 100% willing and able to change on a dime if we need to. So far, no issues.
From a credit policy standpoint, you know, the economic indicators, they're definitely volatile right now, but not to the point that we need to change our underwriting standards, and our credit performance has remained really strong.

Speaker Change: The economic indicators, they're definitely volatile right now, but not to the point that we need to change our underwriting standards and our credit performance has remained really strong we look at entry rates. We look at 90 day delinquencies and obviously, we look at Ngls all of which have continued to improve and remain very steady I would say the American consumer is actually doing.
Speaker Change: Quite well and we havent seen signs that caused us to get the concern we're 100% willing enable to change on a dime, if we need to but so far no issues.
Speaker Change: Okay.
Operator: Final question today comes from Terry Mar at Barclays. Terry, please go ahead. Hey. Thank you. Good morning. I just wanted to follow up on the Parent PLUS and the Grad PLUS opportunities. I guess the question is, can you have that kind of MSCOOP grad product coexist with your current refinance business? Because on one hand I get that it's higher WAC, higher ROE, but then you're also a big consolidator of those loans. Thank you.
Operator: Final question today comes from Terry Mar at Barclays. Terry, please go ahead.
Terry: Final question today comes from Terry MA Barclays. Terry. Please go ahead.
Terry Ma: Hey. Thank you. Good morning. I just wanted to follow up on the Parent PLUS and the Grad PLUS opportunities. I guess the question is, can you have that kind of MSCOOP grad product coexist with your current refinance business? Because on one hand I get that it's higher WAC, higher ROE, but then you're also a big consolidator of those loans. Thank you.
Terry: Hey, Thank you good morning.
Terry: I just wanted to follow up on the parent plus in the Grad plus opportunity I.
Speaker Change: I guess the question is can you have that kind of in school Grad product co exist with your current refinance business because on one hand, I get that it's higher WAC high ROE, but then you're also a big consolidator of those loans. Thank you.
Andrew Jeffrey: Yeah, it absolutely can coexist. You know, there's nothing wrong with prepayments. You just have to factor that into how you value the loans. If someone's in school and they've taken out four years of loans from us, they have a great relationship with us. Hopefully they have a SoFi Money account, and maybe even a SoFi Credit Card, and maybe a small Invest account as well. As they get out of school and their credit improves and they can refinance at a lower rate because they have a credit rating that warrants it, we'd love to do that loan. We just have to make sure that as we think about the in-school loans and as we value them, we have the right type of prepayment levels.
Anthony Noto: Yeah, it absolutely can coexist. You know, there's nothing wrong with prepayments. You just have to factor that into how you value the loans. If someone's in school and they've taken out four years of loans from us, they have a great relationship with us. Hopefully they have a SoFi Money account, and maybe even a SoFi Credit Card, and maybe a small Invest account as well. As they get out of school and their credit improves and they can refinance at a lower rate because they have a credit rating that warrants it, we'd love to do that loan. We just have to make sure that as we think about the in-school loans and as we value them, we have the right type of prepayment levels.
Speaker Change: Yes, absolutely can co exist theres nothing wrong with prepayments you just have to factor that into how you valued the alone. So if someone was in school and they've taken out four years of loans from us they have a great relationship with us hopefully they have a sofia money account and maybe even a <unk> credit card and maybe a small investor count as well as they get out of school and their credit.
Speaker Change: Improves and they can refinance at a lower rate because they have a credit rating that warranted, we'd love to do that loan.
Speaker Change: We just have to make sure that as we think about the in school loans and as we value them. We have the right type of prepayment levels, we have a great history.
Andrew Jeffrey: We have a great history in in-school loans and a great history in refinance loans to know what those prepayment rates are and how to have them coexist. Our goal is to get people out of debt. Our goal is to help them reduce their debt so they spend less than they make. Spending less than they make involves debt. It's not just their entertainment spending, their household expenses, their transportation expenses, and everything else they spend money on. It's also debt. Our objective is to help people spend less than they make and invest the rest so we can lower their cost of debt.
We have a great history in in-school loans and a great history in refinance loans to know what those prepayment rates are and how to have them coexist. Our goal is to get people out of debt. Our goal is to help them reduce their debt so they spend less than they make. Spending less than they make involves debt. It's not just their entertainment spending, their household expenses, their transportation expenses, and everything else they spend money on. It's also debt. Our objective is to help people spend less than they make and invest the rest so we can lower their cost of debt. Debt. We would love to do that.
Speaker Change: In school loans, and a great history, and refinance loans to know what those prepayment rates are.
Speaker Change: How to have them coexist, but our goal is to get people out of that our goal is to help them reduce their debt. So they spend less than they make spending less and they make is involve involves that it's not just their entertainment spending in their household expenses and their transportation expenses and everything else. They spend money on its also debt. So our objective is to <unk>.
Speaker Change: People spend less and they make and invest the rest. So we can lower their cost of debt, we would love to do that that's our mission refinancing our own loans I have no issue with that personal even though on the personal loan business. If we underwrite somebody at a 14% WAC and we help them improve their credit score from $6 80 to 810, we should absolutely help them refinance that.
Jeff Adelson: Debt.
Andrew Jeffrey: We would love to do that. That's our mission.
That's our mission. Refinancing our own loans. I have no issue with that. Personal. Even on the personal loan business, if we underwrite somebody at a 14% whack, and we help them improve their credit score from 680 to 810, we should absolutely help them refinance that loan. By the way, we'll make more money when refinancing that loan than we would if they just kept their current loan. It's just we can't overvalue the current loan, and that's why we look at prepayment speeds all the time, just like we do on servicing assets and how we approach things holistically. The member is at the center of what we're doing, not our financial model.
Anthony Noto: Refinancing our own loans.
Andrew Jeffrey: I have no issue with that. Personal.
Anthony Noto: Even on the personal loan business, if.
Andrew Jeffrey: We underwrite somebody at a 14% whack, and we help them improve their credit score from 680 to 810, we should absolutely help them refinance that loan. By the way, we'll make more money when refinancing that loan than we would if they just kept their current loan. It's just we can't overvalue the current loan, and that's why we look at prepayment speeds all the time, just like we do on servicing assets and how we approach things holistically. The member is at the center of what we're doing, not our financial model.
Speaker Change: Alone and by the way, we will make more money when refinancing that loan than we would've. They just kept their current loan.
