This isn't an update or a redesign, it's a full rebuild from first principles, a new behavioral operating system for wealth designed to help investors perform better.
2 Legacy apps, smoke and mobile trade will now Sunset. As we transition fully into intelligent investing, it's a major Evolution for our company 1 platform, 1 brand and 1 mission to build the behavioral and technological infrastructure. For discipline generational wealth
Buffett and Munger have warned for years that many modern trading apps look more like casinos in investing platforms.
And our data confirmed it.

The industry's promise of democratizing investing through frictionless access commission, free trading, hasn't improved outcomes is accelerated the problem and with the rise of sports gambling and now prediction markets, appearing the long side stocks crypto and options trading, those same dopamine, driven mechanics are spreading faster than ever. The lines between investing trading and betting are blurring and outcomes are getting worse.
David Feller: Thanks, Craig. Thank you. Thanks, everyone, for joining today. Q3 was another quarter of disciplined execution and good performance across all the areas of the business. We continued to strengthen our financial foundation while advancing the most important strategic initiative in our history, the launch of our new Intelligent Investing platform.

On the payments business, revenue grew 11% year-over-year, driven by continued strength in Europe. Our Bitcoin holdings rose more than 300% quarter-over-quarter. Profitability, adjusted EBITDA was $2 million, 11.6% margin. On the back of strong platform performance, we raised our 2025 EBITDA guidance.

For Mogul, that's the opportunity. We have both the data and the capabilities to build the system that corrects this a platform that rewards discipline, not dopamine by unifying, our managed and self-directed experience into intelligent. Investing, we're building what we believe will be the next dominant model and wealth platform where investors success drives the business success.
Our solution is intelligent a behavioral operating system for wealth, it solves the biggest Gap in modern investing the lack of structure feedback and discipline that keeps most investors from capturing the full power of compounding.
The investor with the right Behavior, steady contributions, patients and convictions follows a calm upward compounded path, that leads to generational wealth, most platforms, push the opposite short-term, speculation and reaction that arose returns.
Intelligent investing makes discipline inevitable by combining automation behavioral design and Market intelligence.
The structure alone isn't enough.
David Feller: On the balance sheet, total cash investments ended the quarter at CAD 46 million, providing flexibility to fund growth. It was a steady, high-quality quarter across three strategic pillars, wealth, payments, and Bitcoin, each compounding value and together. Over the past few years, we've been building both sides of our wealth business. Moka focused on automated investing and MogoTrade, our self-directed trading platform. Each gave us a valuable insight into how investors behave, how they save, how they trade, and how their decisions impact long-term outcomes. Those insights made one thing clear: the future wasn't two separate experiences, it was one unified platform.

A key part of our strategy is to make this experience, exciting and aspirational to to compete head-to-head with dopamine field casinos for our product, and our brand. We're redefining what excitement investing needs? We're making discipline. The new adrenaline patients, the new dopamine, and Mastery of the new status. Our members will be active but actively learning developing and patient fully engaged, not by speculation. But by progress, because the real Thrill Is Watching discipline compound into wealth. That's what until that is built to deliver. The system that turns long-term thinking into long-term results,
Today we have members on our platform who are on track to work 50 and 100 million of those. That's what we mean by a generational wealth what's possible with the right approach.
I wanted to walk through a few of the unique behavioral features that differentiate Talent investing from other platforms.
David Feller: It's a full rebuild from first principles, a new behavioral operating system for wealth designed to help investors perform better. Two legacy apps, Moka and MogoTrade, will now sunset as we transition fully into Intelligent Investing. It's a major evolution for our company, one platform, one brand, and one mission: To build the behavioral and technological infrastructure for disciplined generational wealth. The problem we're solving is structural. Most of the financial system is built around activity because that's what drives revenue for firms. Every trade, every fund switch, every notification is a profit event for the platform, but it usually hurts the investor. After analyzing three years of real trading data across our own platforms, we saw it firsthand. Most self-directed investors don't lose because of high fees. They lose because of behavior.

We've made hundreds of improvements across the experience. All designed to help investors perform better. But all right, just a few that best capture our behavioral design and discipline that Define the platform. Let's start with our Flagship S&P 500 portfolios, these portfolios serve as a behavioral anchor combining, The Proven performance of the S&P 500 with structure automation consistency, that drives better Behavior. The Edge isn't just being in the S&P. 500 is being in a in a managed discipline way. When we compare
David Feller: Buffett and Munger have warned for years that many modern trading apps look more like casinos than investing platforms. Our data confirmed it.

Ladies and gentlemen, please stand by. This is the operator.
Um, you know what? It sounds like Dave got disconnected. So why don't I continue on?
David Feller: Our solution is Intelligent Investing, a behavioral operating system for wealth. It solves the biggest gap in modern investing, the lack of structure, feedback, and discipline that keeps most investors from capturing the full power of compounding. The investor with the right behavior, steady contributions, patience, and conviction follows a calm, upward compounding path that leads to generational wealth. Most platforms push the opposite: short-term speculation and reaction that erodes returns. Intelligent Investing makes discipline inevitable by combining automation, behavioral design, and market intelligence. Structure alone isn't enough. A key part of our strategy is to make this experience exciting and aspirational, to compete head to head with dopamine-fueled casinos. For our product and our brand, we're redefining what excitement investing means. We're making discipline the new adrenaline, patience the new dopamine, and mastery the new status.

Um, so Dave was really just giving an update on our new wealth intelligent, investing platform, and giving you some of the exciting, uh, features, uh, that are coming up on that. I can tell you, everybody on the team is super excited about what we're seeing there. Uh, and I think the phrase that Dave coined of these, uh, uh, platforms being dopamine, fueled casinos are more real than ever especially with the rise of prediction markets. Uh, so we really think the market, um, is, uh, uh, this is something that the market needs.
Um now I just want to turn to Carta, which is uh, our second pillar, uh payments Carter worldwide. Carter continues to be an important strategic component of our platform business built in long-term contracts.

Greg: We've made hundreds of improvements across the experience, all designed to help investors perform better. I'll highlight just a few that best capture our behavioral design and discipline that define the platform. Let's start with our flagship S&P 500 portfolios. These portfolios serve as a behavioral anchor, combining the proven performance of the S&P 500 with structure, automation, and consistency that drives better behavior. The edge isn't just being in the S&P 500, it's being in a managed, disciplined way.

Networks including Visa Mastercard what differentiates Carter is its API. First architecture built on the Oracle Cloud looking ahead.

And we think cart is well, positioned to become trusted with stable coin payments as adoption accelerates.
Turning to bitcoin strategy, which represents the next evolution of our Capital allocation in July. Our board approved, a strategic initiative, authorizing up to 50 million in Bitcoin allocation during Q3. We increase our Bitcoin Holdings by over 300% from Q2, reaching 4.7 million funded through excess cash from investment monetization.
Operator: Ladies and gentlemen, please stand by. This is the operator.
Operator: Ladies and gentlemen, please stand by. This is the operator.
Our wealth payments and Bitcoin initiatives together position Mogul at the crossroads of two very powerful trends: the digitization of value and the modernization of financial infrastructure. We believe this dual compounding focus on operating business and Bitcoin will be a long-term differentiator for Mogul. Now, I'll turn to our Q3 results. Q3 was another solid quarter of execution across our three main pillars: growth, wealth payments, and Bitcoin. Each advance, meaning Fleet wealth, achieved record assets under management, payments delivered up-digit growth, and our Bitcoin treasury strategy progressed.
Accelerated.

Our ecosystem continues to scale across both consumer and enterprise channels. Total members in Canada reached 2.3 million, up 6%. Assets under management hit a record $498 million, up 22%, and on the B2B side, payments volume grew 12% year-over-year to $2.8 billion on a like-for-like basis.
adjusted total revenue grew 2% year-over-year to 17 million, but the composition of that growth continues to shift towards higher quality, recurring streams,
Wealth revenue rose 27%, driven by deeper adoption of managed portfolios and higher AUM.
Payments, Revenue increase 11% reflecting steady transaction growth, and long-term customer retention these 2 components help Drive overall growth and adjusted subscription Services revenue of 7%. Underscoring the strength and durability of our mostly recurring Revenue based model

As expected, interest Revenue was down 5% in the quarter. Following the new rate cap implemented at the start of the year. However interest Revenue was up slightly on a sequential basis demonstrating, underlying, portfolio growth.
Profitability remains central to our execution in Q3, adjusted eval with $2.1 million representing an 11.6% margin, up sequentially from Q2 and roughly flat versus last year. Net cash flow before our loan book was lower year-over-year due to the timing of working capital items, which were a headwind this quarter versus the same period last year.
On a consolidated basis, total cash increased in the quarter by almost $7 million, reflecting the impact of portfolio monetization.
Year to date. Totally but does 5 million and total cash flow before investment and Loan, Investments reached 13.6 million up from 10.4 million for the first 9 months in 24. Bottom line is, we've made
Greg: This is about future-proofing our infrastructure to support clients who wanna move value seamlessly across both fiat and digital rails. We think Carta is well-positioned to become a trusted gateway for stablecoin payments as adoption accelerates. Turning to Bitcoin strategy, which represents the next evolution of our capital allocation. In July, our board approved a strategic initiative authorizing up to CAD 50 million in Bitcoin allocation. During Q3, we increased our Bitcoin holdings by over 300% from Q2, reaching CAD 4.7 million, funded through excess cash from investment monetizations. Our wealth, payments, and Bitcoin initiatives together position Mogo at the crossroads of two very powerful trends, the digitization of value and the modernization of financial infrastructure. We believe this dual compounding focus of operating business and Bitcoin will be a long-term differentiator for Mogo. Now I'll turn to our Q3 results.

Cost control even as we continue investing in platform, monetization and intelligent investing rollout.
Our balance sheet remains a clear differentiator for Mogul. We ended the quarter with 46.1 million in total cash and Investments, including 18 million in cash and restricted. Cash, 20.8 million marketable, Securities in 7.1 million, in private Investments, Book value, stated approximately 77.5 million or 3.24 cents Canadian for share. Providing a strong Capital Foundation to execute our Bitcoin allocation strategy while maintaining liquidity and flexibility.
We continue to optimize our capital structure with the focus on return of invested, capital and balance sheet, optionality.
Turning to our Outlook, we reaffirmed our 2025 Revenue guidance, and our raising, our justatee values from 5 to 6 million to 6.6 to 7 million for the full year.
Greg: Q3 was another solid quarter of execution across our three main pillars, growth pillars of wealth, payments, and Bitcoin. Each advanced meaningfully. Wealth achieved record assets under management, payments delivered double-digit growth, and Bitcoin treasury strategy accelerated. Our ecosystem continues to scale across both consumer and enterprise channels. Total members in Canada reached CAD 2.3 million, up 6%. Assets under management hit a record CAD 498 million, up 22%. On the B2B side, payments volume grew 12% year-over-year to CAD 2.8 billion on a like-for-like basis.

This Improvement reflects the operating leveraging, our model and continued execution, across both wealth and payment pillars.

Mogul is entering 2026 with a focus strategy, a stronger balance sheet and a platform designed for intelligent sustainable growth.
With that, we will open it up to questions.

sure. Yeah. Thanks sorry. Sorry about that. Yeah. Apologies.
Greg: Payments revenue increased 11%, reflecting steady transaction growth, and long-term customer retention. These two components helped drive overall growth in adjusted subscription services revenue of 7%, underscoring the strength and durability of our mostly recurring revenue-based model. As expected, interest revenue was down 5% in the quarter following the new rate cap that implemented at the start of the year. However, interest revenue was up slightly on a sequential basis, demonstrating underlying portfolio growth. Profitability remains central to our execution. In Q3, adjusted EBITDA was $2 million, representing 11.6% margin, up sequentially from Q2 and roughly flat versus last year. Net cash flow before loan book was lower year-over-year due to timing of working capital items, which were a headwind this quarter versus same period last year.

As expected, interest revenue was down 5% in the quarter following the new rate cap that implemented at the start of the year. However, interest revenue was up slightly on a sequential basis, demonstrating underlying portfolio growth. Profitability remains central to our execution. In Q3, adjusted EBITDA was $2 million, representing 11.6% margin, up sequentially from Q2 and roughly flat versus last year. Net cash flow before loan book was lower year-over-year due to timing of working capital items, which were a headwind this quarter versus same period last year.
Yeah, I got cut off there, so wanted to walk through just a few of uh, the unique features in our new intelligent. Investing
Uh, 1 of them is our new performance dashboard, uh, which we see as a professional-grade view for active investors. Every member will now be able to see how they're performing against the S&P 500. So, they always know how they stack up to a Buy and Hold strategy. Also breaks down. What's driving, their results? Winners and losers by count and weight portfolio. Turnover volatility, and draw down and shows how their performance ranks also versus other members. It also introduces a new behavioral score that connects processed outcomes. Tracking things like consistency in the bygate process and patience and holding positions.
Greg: On a consolidated basis, total cash increased in the quarter by almost CAD 7 million, reflecting the impact of portfolio monetizations. Year to date, total EBITDA is CAD 5 million, and total cash flow before investment in loan investments reached CAD 13.6 million, up from CAD 10.4 million for the first nine months in 2024. Bottom line is we've maintained cost control even as we continue investing in platform modernization and Intelligent Investing rollout. Our balance sheet remains a clear differentiator for Mogo. We ended the quarter with CAD 46.1 million in total cash and investments, including CAD 18 million in cash and restricted cash, CAD 20.8 million in marketable securities, and CAD 7.1 million in private investments.

This level of transparency is something that most platforms whenever offer because it reduces training activity. But for us it's a strategic Advantage. It encourages patients, selectivity and long-term Focus, the traits that drive performance and retention, it's what professionals track and now our every investor can see it.
Next up we have what we call the buy gate investment memo. A professional grade system for making better more informed decisions before every purchase members go through a structure process. The same checklist, the best investors use for allocating Capital Management. Assessment Mo and competitive Advantage investment thesis and key drivers kill criteria and bias. Check once complete, the platform creates an investment memo, a living record
Record of the reasoning that can be Revisited and refined over time.
Even speculative buyers are part of this framework, but now they're tracked and analyzed separately. So investors can see what's working? What isn't
Greg: Book value stood at approximately CAD 77.5 million, or CAD 3.24 per share, providing a strong capital foundation to execute our Bitcoin allocation strategy while maintaining liquidity and flexibility. We continue to optimize our capital structure with a focus on return of invested capital and balance sheet optionality. Turning to our outlook, we reaffirmed our 2025 revenue guidance and are raising our adjusted EBITDA outlook from $5 to 6 million to $6 to 7 million for the full year. This improvement reflects the operating leverage in our model and continued execution across both wealth and payment pillars. As we move into Q4 in 2026, our priorities remain clear: grow our recurring revenue base, maintain profitability discipline, and allocate capital with a long-term mindset anchored in Bitcoin and hard asset value creation.

This is a system for turning decisions into Data. Bringing the same rigor and feedback loop used by professionals to every investor and these are just a few of the 100 improvements we've made across the platform each designed to make discipline inevitable and performance sustainable.
We will begin the role of intelligent investing later this month and continue into q1. We could be more excited for our members and our new platform and I personally excited and proud of the great work team has done as a truly believe. We built a truly differentiated uh platform and 1 that really aligns with our view that the future of investing won't be 1 by those that deliver and drive the most activity. But ultimately the platforms that actually deliver the best outcomes
So, back to we'll go down to the back of the Q&A, okay?
Great operator, ladies and gentlemen. Thank you.
Thank you. Wait, this is gentlemen, we will now begin the question and answer session.
Greg: Mogo is entering 2026 with a focused strategy, a stronger balance sheet, and a platform designed for intelligent, sustainable growth. With that, we will open it up to questions. Dave, do you wanna go back? It's Craig here. Do you wanna go back and do slides 8 and 9 that?

David Feller: Sure. Yeah. Thanks, Craig.
David Feller: Sure. Yeah. Thanks, Craig.
Greg: Sorry about the-
Gregory Feller: Sorry about the-
David Feller: Apologies. It got cut off there. Wanted to walk through just a few of the unique features in our new Intelligent Investing. One of them is our new performance dashboard, which we see as a professional-grade view for active investors. Every member will now be able to see how they're performing against the S&P 500, so they always know how they stack up to a buy and hold strategy. Also breaks down what's driving their results, winners and losers by count and weight, portfolio turnover, volatility, and drawdown, and shows how their performance ranks also versus other members. It also introduces a new behavioral score that connects process outcomes, tracking things like consistency in the buy-gate process and patience in holding positions. This level of transparency is something that most platforms would never offer because it reduces trading activity.

Hi. Good morning, guys. Thanks for taking my questions. I guess first I wonder if you could kind of walk us through how you see the balance between growth and margins, you know, as you work from kind of where you are today at 18% or so to that Rule of 40.
So uh yeah Scott it's it's Greg. Um I think the um uh our our overall philosophy right now is to stay ibida positive. Um what while uh looking to drive overall uh Topline growth. Right? I think um uh
David Feller: For us, it's a strategic advantage. It encourages patience, selectivity, and long-term focus, the traits that drive performance and retention. It's what professionals track, and now every investor can see it. Next up, we have what we call the buy-gate investment memo, a professional-grade system for making better, more informed decisions. Before every purchase, members go through a structured process, the same checklist the best investors use before allocating capital. Management assessment, moat and competitive advantage, investment thesis and key drivers, kill criteria, and bias check. Once complete, the platform creates an investment memo, a living record of their reasoning that can be revisited and refined over time. Even speculative buys are part of this framework, but now they're tracked and analyzed separately so investors can see what's working and what isn't.

Um and and so, as we roll out, intelligent investing later, this quarter, and going into q1, um, I think we are going to, um, uh, be in a position to, uh, have to make some more Investments, uh, for that roll out. Um, uh, but, uh, obviously the, um, a philosophy there is that we expect offsetting a growth, um, on any impact on on IBA margin, but we think that's the right body.
Bias for uh, to drive accelerating growth. Uh, again keeping that overall rule of 40 framework, uh, where our goal, there is to see that rule of 40, number overall increase. Um, again rule of 40 being, uh, Revenue growth and adjusted evida margin.
David Feller: This is a system for turning decisions into data, bringing the same rigor and feedback loops used by professionals to every investor. These are just a few of the hundred improvements we've made across the platform, each designed to make discipline inevitable and performance sustainable. We will begin the roll out of Intelligent Investing later this month and continuing into Q1. We couldn't be more excited for our members and our new platform, I personally am excited and proud of the great work the team has done, as I truly believe we've built a truly differentiated platform and one that really aligns with our view that the future of investing won't be won by those that deliver and drive the most activity, but ultimately the platforms that actually deliver the best outcomes. Back to the Q&A. Craig?

Right, that that's helpful Greg and then on the the roll out of intelligent investing, could you provide a little bit around the logistics of how you'll be rolling it out. And then you mentioned, you know, some likely increased spend uh I assume that comes through the, the marketing line but any additional color there would be helpful as well.
First with rolling out our managed Solutions. So again, we're moving from, you know, essentially, 2 2 platforms. We had mocha which was our managed solution and we had Mongo trade, which is our self-directed. Both of those are obviously are still the, the current platforms that are users members are on.
Greg: Great. Operator, if you can.
Gregory Feller: Great. Operator, if you can.
Operator: Ladies and gentlemen.
Operator: Ladies and gentlemen.
Greg: Thank you.
Gregory Feller: Thank you.

Uh so Phase 1 is going to be actually rolling out the managed uh first so um uh mocha users. And everybody with a managed account will essentially transition into this new app. So they'll literally go from 1 de updating from the old app to the new app, which is the new intelligent investing, uh, starting with the managed, uh, roll that out to across our member base. And then, um, introduced and roll out the new self-directed. So, everybody with a, an existing mocha account will essentially log in to their existing account, but it'll obviously all be on the new platform, new interface, Etc. Uh, and then same thing on the self-directed. Everybody on self-directed platform will log in and their account, and everything will be on this new platform. And now it'll be unified into to 1 app. So we expect that this, you know, process will, you know, they'll, this could be starting this month and it'll continue into to q1. And, you know, assuming everything is
Greg: Yeah, Scott, it's Greg. I think our overall philosophy right now is to stay EBITDA positive while looking to drive overall top line growth, right? As we roll out Intelligent Investing later this quarter and going into Q1, I think we are going to be in a position to have to make some more investments for that rollout. Obviously the philosophy there is that we expect offsetting growth on any impact on EBITDA margin. We think that's the right bias for to drive accelerating growth. Again, keeping that overall Rule of 40 framework, where our goal there is to see that Rule of 40 number overall increase.

Again, keeping that overall Rule of 40 framework, where our goal there is to see that Rule of 40 number overall increase.
Is going well. And we're, you know, obviously there's always feedback and adjustments and that process will continue. Uh, but we would hope by, you know, q1, at some point in q1. We're, you know, beginning to, um, start progressing on the, on the marketing front and really starting to, you know, try to get back to accelerated growth there.
Great, David, that’s helpful. And I want to ask about the...
Uh, how the lending business kind of fits in with, you know, the core wealth and payments that at this point. So are you sourcing customers for wealth through lending or or what?
You know, I I guess, I'm I'm trying to understand what the Strategic fit is.
Greg, do you want to talk about that or I could talk a little bit about that? Um,
Greg: Again, Rule of 40 being, revenue growth and adjusted EBITDA margin.
Gregory Feller: Again, Rule of 40 being, revenue growth and adjusted EBITDA margin.
Scott Buck: Great. That's helpful, Greg. On the rollout of Intelligent Investing, could you provide a little bit around the logistics of how you'll be rolling it out? Then you mentioned, you know, some likely increased spend. I assume that comes through the marketing line, but any additional color there would be helpful as well.

So yeah, go ahead. I mean, I'll I'll start and Greg can can add uh, I mean ultimately I think what you're seeing with a lot of these platforms, right? You take a look at Robin Hood. Um, you know, well, simple, Etc. Uh, everybody usually starts with a product and then continues to to evolve and start adding others, right? You know, well simple, initially, launched a robo advisor, you know, then they got into, uh, self-directed investing, you know? Now they're doing credit cards. Uh, everybody eventually is getting into lending as well. So in the long run, you see lending as a obviously, as a, i
David Feller: Sure. It's Dave. We're starting first with rolling out our managed solution. Again, we're moving from, you know, essentially two platforms. We had Moka, which was our managed solution, and then we had MogoTrade, which is our self-directed. Both of those obviously are still the current platforms that our users members are on. Phase one is gonna be actually rolling out the managed first. Moka users and everybody with a managed account will essentially transition into this new app. They'll literally go from one day updating from the old app to the new app, which is the new Intelligent Investing, starting with the managed, roll that out across our member base and then introduce and roll out the new self-directed.

A key part of a lot of these platforms and, you know, our big Advantage is that we've been in the lending business from the beginning. So obviously a lot of experience and a lot of data on the unsecured part, um, you know, some of those. There's no question that a lot of those members. I mean, ultimately, every single individual needs to get invested, right? Um, so we, you know, our goal with on the lending side is to help people go from, you know, being in debt and actually getting on a path to saving and investing especially those that are born typically in kind of the subprime rate. Um, but yeah, I think long term lending, I expect is going to be a key component of all of these platforms. And uh, but for now for us, obviously, you know, our main focus for the terms of growth drivers of the business is going to continue to be really on the payments and on the website, right? Uh, but Greg I don't know if you want to add a little more color in there.
David Feller: Everybody with an existing Moka account will essentially log in to their existing account, but it'll obviously all be on the new platform, new interface, et cetera. Same thing on the self-directed. Everybody on the self-directed platform will log in and their account and everything will be on this new platform. Now it'll be unified into one app. We expect that this, you know, process will, you know, this can be starting this month, and it'll continue into Q1. You know, assuming everything is going well and we're, you know, obviously there's always feedback and adjustments and that process will continue.

Yeah, I I I would just say that um, our goal for Lending look, lending. We've been doing for 20 years, it's been a stable, cash flow generator for us. It's been 1, that, um, uh, as I've always said, because it's not our core growth Focus, uh, we can turn those dials up and down to spending, depending on our general View and outlook on the overall environment. Um, so our book has stayed relatively stable for for a few years. So we really haven't been meaningfully. Uh, uh, growing our book. Um, our goal is that, you know, lending is right now. Lending is a is
David Feller: We would hope by, you know, Q1, at some point in Q1, we're, you know, beginning to start progressing on the, on the marketing front and really starting to, you know, try to get back to accelerated growth there.

Scott Buck: Great, David. That's helpful. I wanted to ask about how the lending business kind of fits in with, you know, the core wealth and payments at this point. Are you sourcing customers for wealth through lending or what? You know, I guess I'm trying to understand what the strategic fit is.

David Feller: Greg, do you wanna talk about that, or I can talk a little bit about that?
David Feller: Greg, do you wanna talk about that, or I can talk a little bit about that?
Greg: Yeah, go ahead.
Gregory Feller: Yeah, go ahead.
David Feller: I mean, I'll start, and Greg can add. I mean, ultimately, I think what you're seeing with a lot of these platforms, right? You take a look at Robinhood, you know, Wealthsimple, et cetera. Everybody usually starts with a product and then continues to evolve and start adding others, right? Wealthsimple initially launched a robo-advisor. They got into self-directed investing. Now they're doing credit cards. Everybody eventually is getting into lending as well. In the long run, you see lending as a, I think, a key part of a lot of these platforms. Our big advantage is that we've been in the lending business from the beginning, so obviously a lot of experience and a lot of data on the unsecured part.

Our big advantage is that we've been in the lending business from the beginning, so obviously a lot of experience and a lot of data on the unsecured part.
As well and it's Dave said, you know, strategically there probably isn't a a, a, a fintech platform out there. Um um. Because if you that doesn't have it because if it it really at the end of the day, as you broaden out and offer more and more services, and you look what Robin is doing. They effectively want to become your primary bank, right? And offer all your financial products and you cannot do that if you don't actually do lending. So lending is a strategic asset for sure in this space. It's what I would argue the hardest 1 to get into because it actually requires years and years of of data and experience to be able to do that profitably. Um and I would say moo has 1 of the strongest uh databases um in the sub-prime space in Canada, having been doing this for 20 years.
Great, that that's fair and I appreciate the the added color there. Um, 1 1, last 1, just curious if you guys have an update on on where you stand on the regulatory process in terms of being to off the being able to offer crypto trading with the the New Wealth platform, that's that's rolling out.
Um, yeah. So
David Feller: You know, some of those, there's no question that a lot of those members. I mean, ultimately, every single individual needs to get invested, right? We, you know, our goal with on the lending side is to help people going from, you know, being in debt and actually getting on a path to saving and investing, especially those that are borrowing typically in kind of the subprime rate. Yeah, I think long-term lending, I expect is gonna be a key component of all of these platforms. For now, for us, obviously, you know, our main focus for in terms of growth drivers of the business is gonna continue to be really on the payments and on the wealth side, right? Greg, I don't know if you wanna add a little more color in there.

We're progressing.
On the whole crypto path, um, um, and, um, including, uh, partnership discussions. Um, uh, because basically, everybody that really, you know, expands into this area, uh, um, builds partnerships because there's a pretty broad ecosystem there. Um, so I would say, you know, stay tuned, um, as we go into 2026, um, for.
For announcements around progress, around bringing crypto into, uh, our platform.
All right, perfect. Well, I appreciate the added color, guys. Thank you very much for the time.
Thanks.
Greg: Yeah. I would just say that our goal for lending. Look, lending we've been doing for 20 years. It's been a stable cash flow generator for us. It's been one that, as I've always said, because it's not our core growth focus, we can turn those dials up and down depending on our general view and outlook on the overall environment. Our book has stayed relatively stable for a few years, so we really haven't been meaningfully growing our book. Our goal is that, you know, right now, lending is a drag on overall revenue growth because of the rate cap impact in 25. Our goal is that revenue is not a drag on revenue growth as we move into 2026.
Gregory Feller: Yeah. I would just say that our goal for lending. Look, lending we've been doing for 20 years. It's been a stable cash flow generator for us.

Thanks, ladies and gentlemen, as a reminder, if you would like to ask a question, please press star. Followed by the number 1 on your touchtone phone. If you are using a speaker-phone, please make sure to lift your handset before pressing any keys.
There are no further questions at this time. I'd like to turn the call back over to a fellow for closing comments, sir. Please go ahead.
Thank you.
Thanks again for joining us on our Q3 call. We look forward to giving you an update, uh, in the next in q1, on a full year results. Thanks again.
Ladies and gentlemen, this concludes today's conference call. Thank you very much for your participation. You may now have this connect
Greg: That by far the primary driver of top-line growth is coming from wealth and payments. That's sort of how we look at it. By definition, lending we believe will become a smaller and smaller percent of our overall business, but continue to be a contributor of cash flow to the overall business as well. As Dave said, you know, strategically, there probably isn't a fintech platform out there that doesn't have it. Really at the end of the day, as you broaden out and offer more and more services and you look what Robinhood's doing, they effectively wanna become your primary bank, right? Offer all your financial products, and you cannot do that if you don't actually do lending.
