Overview We are a financial technology company and digital banking platform driven by our mission to provide inclusive, affordable financial services that empower our members to build a better future. By intentionally designing our products with our members in mind, we are focused on realizing our vision to deliver a complete set of financial solutions that meet the needs of hardworking people, from borrowing and banking to savings, investing and more. We take a holistic approach to serving our members and view it as our purpose to responsibly meet their current capital needs, help grow our members’ financial profiles, increase their financial awareness and put them on a path to a financially healthy life. In our 16-year lending history, we have extended more than $14.0 billion in responsible credit through more than 5.6 million loans and credit cards . We have been certified as a Community Development Financial Institution ("CDFI") by the U.S. Department of the Treasury since 2009. With our recent acquisition of Hello Digit, Inc. ("Digit"), we believe we now have a strong competitive advantage over other fintechs and neobanks. As a combined company, we can now offer access to a comprehensive suite of digital banking products, offered either directly or through partners, including lending, savings and investing powered by A.I. and tailored to each member's goals. Our financial products allow us to meet our members where they are and assist them with their overall financial health, resulting in opportunities to present multiple relevant products to our members. Our credit products include personal loans, secured personal loans and credit cards. Our digital banking products include digital banking, automated savings, long-term investing and retirement savings. Consumers are able to become members and access our products through our digital banking app — the Digit app — and the Oportun.com website, which are our primary channels for onboarding and serving members. Our personal loan products are also available over the phone or through over 490 retail locations, which includes 294 of our Lending as a Service partner locations. Credit Products Personal Loans - Our personal loan is a simple-to-understand, affordable, unsecured, fully amortizing installment loan with fixed payments throughout the life of the loan. We charge fixed interest rates on our loans, which vary based on the amount disbursed and applicable state law, with a cap of 36% annual percentage rate (“APR”) in all cases. As of June 30, 2022, for all active loans in our portfolio and at time of disbursement, the weighted average term and APR at origination was 36 months and 32.2%, respectively. The average loan size for loans we originated during the three months ended June 30, 2022 was $4,118. Our loans do not have prepayment penalties or balloon payments, and typically range in size from $300 to 21 $11,000 with terms of 7 to 61 months. Generally, loan payments are structured on a bi-weekly or semi-monthly basis to coincide with our members' receipt of their income. As part of our underwriting process, we verify income for all applicants and only approve loans that meet our ability-to-pay criteria. As of June 30, 2022, we originate unsecured personal loans in 12 states through state licenses and in 30 through our partnership with Pathward, N.A. (formerly known as MetaBank, N.A.). Secured Personal Loans - In April 2020, we launched a personal installment loan product secured by an automobile, which we refer to as secured personal loans. Our secured personal loans range in size from $2,525 to $20,000 with terms ranging from 21 to 64 months. The average loan size for secured personal loans we originated during the three months ended June 30, 2022 was $8,167. As of June 30, 2022, for all active loans in our portfolio and at time of disbursement, the weighted average term and APR at origination was 48 months and 28.8%, respectively. As part of our underwriting process, we evaluate the collateral value of the vehicle, verify income for all applicants and only approve loans that meet our ability-to-pay criteria. Our secured personal loans are currently offered in California, Texas, Florida, Arizona and New Jersey and we are in the process of considering expansion into other states. Credit Cards - We lau nched Oportun® Visa® Credit Card, issued by WebBank, Member FDIC, in December 2019, and offer credit cards in 45 states as of June 30, 2022 . Credit lines on our credit cards range in size from $300 to $3,000 with an APR between 24.9% to 29.9%. The average APR of the outstanding credit card receivables was 29.8% as of June 30, 2022 . The average credit line for credit cards activated during the three months ended June 30, 2022 was $754. Digital Banking Products Digit Savings – Our Digit Savings product is designed to understand a member’s cash flows and save a calculated amount on a regular basis to effortlessly achieve savings goals. Digit's savings product utilizes mac hine learning to analyze a member’s transaction activity and build forecasts of the member’s future cash flows to make small, frequent savings decisions according to the member’s financial goals in a personalized manner. Members integrate their existing bank accounts into the platform or they can make Digit their primary banking relationship through a bank partner. After one year using the automated savings product, members have been able to increase their liquid savings by approximately 50%. Since 2015 Digit has helped members save more than $8.1 billion and pay down more than $330.0 million in debt. Digit Direct – Our Digit Direct product offers a full checking account, through a bank partner, that intelligently organizes and budgets a member’s money across bills, savings, and spending. The bank account with a brain™, Digit Direct leverages the same A.I. engine used for our savings product to automatically identify and organize recurring bills and guides spending to ensure members' savings goals are met, and that members know exactly what they can safely spend. This is on top of what members can expect from a traditional checking account, including a physical and virtual debit card to use for purchases and ATM withdrawals and checks. Digit Investing and Digit Retirement – Our Digit investment and retirement products are a longer-term savings solution via an A.I.-driven portfolio allocation into low-cost investments based upon risk-tolerance. Our long-term investment solutions automatically allocates our members' savings into low-cost risk-adjusted portfolios held in brokerage accounts or tax-advantaged IRAs. Since 2020, our members have invested $53.4 million into long-term goals through low-cost ETF portfolios. The investment products include a general investing account and a retirement account for our members’ longer term goals, utilizing smart recommendations to invest savings in risk-adjusted portfolios. The funds in these savings, checking, investing and retirement accounts are owned by Digit members and are not the assets of the Company. Therefore, these funds are not included in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets (Unaudited) . Lending as a Service Beyond our core direct-to-consumer lending business, we believe that we can leverage our proprietary credit scoring and underwriting model to partner with other consumer brands and expand our member base. With our Lending as a Service model, our partner markets loans and enters borrower applications into our system and Oportun underwrites, originates, and services the loans. Our first Lending as a Service strategic partner was DolEx Dollar Express, Inc. (“DolEx”) with an initial launch in December 2020. In October of 2021, we launched another Lending as a Service partnership with Barri Financial Group in select locations. In January 2022, we announced our first all-digital Lending as a Service partnership with Sezzle, a leading provider of Buy Now Pay Later (“BNPL”) financing options. When deployed, Oportun will be available as a checkout option, through Sezzle, for larger purchases of goods and services on a BNPL basis, which we believe will allow us to reach more new members. Capital Markets Funding To fund our growth at a low and efficient cost, we have built a diversified and well-established capital markets funding program, which allows us to partially hedge our exposure to rising interest rates or credit spreads by locking in our interest expense for up to three years. Over the past eight years, we have executed 18 bond offerings in the asset-backed securities market, the last 15 of which include tranches that have been rated investment grade. We have issued two- and three-year fixed rate bonds which have provided us committed capital to fund future loan originations at a fixed Cost of Debt. In May 2022, we issued $400.0 million of two-year asset-backed notes. On July 22, 2022, we issued another $400 million two-year asset-backed notes. For additional information, see Note 9 , Borrowings of the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) included elsewhere in this report. Through March 4, 2022, we were also party to a whole loan sale program whereby we sold a percentage of our loans to a third-party financial institution. We allowed the whole loan sale program agreement to expire on its own terms. In March 2022, we participated in a securitization and sold loans through the issuance of amortizing asset-backed notes secured by a pool of our unsecured and secured personal installment loans. We also sold our share of the residual interest in the pool. The sold loans had an aggregate unpaid principal balance of approximately $227.6 million ("2022-1 22 transaction"). In April 2022, we sold a population of loans that had an aggregate unpaid principal balance of approximately $14.7 million ("Q2 2022 Loan Sale"). In addition to possible future whole loan, structured or delinquent loan sales, we also have a $600.0 million Personal Loan Warehouse facility with a term through September 2024 and a $150.0 million Credit Card Warehouse facility with a term through December 2023 which also helps to fund our receivables growth. Digit Acquisition On December 22, 2021, we acquired Digit and it became our wholly-owned subsidiary. Digit is a digital banking platform that provides automated savings, banking and investing tools. With Digit, members can keep and integrate their existing bank accounts into the platform, or with Digit, they can make Oportun their primary banking relationship by opening new accounts via a bank partner. By acquiring Digit, we further expanded our A.I. and digital capabilities and added additional service offerings to provide members a comprehensive suite of digital banking products, either directly or through our partners. Retail Network Optimization During the first quarter of 2021, pursuant to our retail network optimization plan we closed 136 retail locations and reduced a portion of the employee workforce who managed and operated these retail locations. The income statement impact for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 was $4.9 million and $12.7 million, respectively, and was recorded through General, administrative and other on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations (Unaudited). These amounts included expenses related to the retail location closures and all severance and benefits-related costs. During the first quarter of 2022, we made the decision to close an additional 27 retail locations in April 2022 and reduce a portion of the workforce who manage and operate these retail locations. The income statement impact for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 was $1.5 million and $2.1 million, respectively, and was recorded through General, administrative and other on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations (Unaudited) . These amounts included expenses related to the retail location closures and all severance and benefits-related costs and we do not expect any significant additional expenses to be incurred. Key Financial and Operating Metrics We monitor and evaluate the following key metrics in order to measure our current performance, develop and refine our growth strategies, and make strategic decisions. As of or for the Three Months Ended June 30, As of or for the Six Months Ended June 30, (in thousands of dollars) 2022 2021 2022 2021 Key Financial and Operating Metrics Members (1) 1,818,588 684,843 1,818,588 684,843 Products (1) 1,928,261 684,843 1,928,261 684,843 Aggregate Originations $ 878,177 $ 433,039 $ 1,678,292 $ 768,277 30+ Day Delinquency Rate 4.3 % 2.5 % 4.3 % 2.5 % Annualized Net Charge-Off Rate 8.6 % 6.4 % 8.6 % 7.5 % Return on Equity (5.7) % 6.1 % 11.8 % 4.4 % Adjusted Return on Equity 2.3 % 14.2 % 18.2 % 12.4 % Other Useful Metrics Managed Principal Balance at End of Period $ 3,243,400 $ 1,872,841 $ 3,243,400 $ 1,872,841 Owned Principal Balance at End of Period $ 2,792,193 $ 1,630,644 $ 2,792,193 $ 1,630,644 Average Daily Principal Balance $ 2,577,186 $ 1,596,320 $ 2,495,546 $ 1,610,471 (1) The 684,843 Members and Products reported as of June 30, 2021 reflect our previously defined and disclosed "Active Customer" metric. Products presented as of June 30, 2021 represents one product per member as we did not have members with multiple products at that time. Effective January 1, 2022, Active Customers is no longer a Key Financial and Operating Metric. See the definitions of Members and Products in the Glossary at the end of Part II. See “ Glossary ” at the end of Part II of this report for formulas and definitions of our key performance metrics. Members Reflecting our acquisition of Digit and its users, we define Members as borrowers with an outstanding or successfully paid off loan, originated by us or under a bank partnership program that we service, or individuals who have been approved for a credit card issued under a bank partnership program. Members also include individuals who have signed-up to use or are using any of our Digit Savings, Digit Direct, Digit Investing and/or Digit Retirement products. We view Members as an indication of growth of our business and our ability to establish long term relationships with the users of our products. Member growth is generally an indicator of future revenue, but is not directly correlated with revenue, since not all Members who sign up for one of our products fully utilize or continue to use our products. 23 Members were 1.8 million as of June 30, 2022, and include members acquired in connection with the acquisition of Digit on December 22, 2021. Active Customers were 0.7 million as of June 30, 2021. Effective January 1, 2022, Active Customers is no longer a Key Financial and Operating Metric and the year over year change is not directly comparable due to the difference in the metric. Products Products refers to the aggregate number of personal loans and/or credit card accounts that our Members have had or been approved for that have been originated by us or through one of our bank partners. Products also include the aggregate number of digital banking products we offer as a result of our acquisition of Digit, including Digit Savings, Digit Direct, Digit Investing and Digit Retirement, that our Members use or have signed-up to use. We view Products as an indicator of the effectiveness of our member acquisition efforts and multiproduct adoption. Products as of June 30, 2022 were 1.9 million. Aggregate Originations Aggregate Originations increased to $878.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022 from $433.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021, representing a 102.8% increase. The increase is primarily driven by an increase in the number of loans originated and growth in average loan size. We originated 241,256 and 154,994 loans for the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The increase is primarily driven by an increased number of applications due to higher demand, partially offset by a reduction in our approval rate as we tightened credit. Aggregate Originations increased to $1,678.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 from $768.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021, representing a 118.4% increase. The increase is primarily driven by an increase in number of loans originated and growth in average loan size. We originated 469,984 and 269,664 loans for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The increase is primarily driven by an increased number of applications due to higher demand, partially offset by a reduction in our approval rate as we tightened credit. 30+ Day Delinquency Rate Our 30+ Day Delinquency Rate was 4.3% and 2.5% as of June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The increase reflects the higher mix of first-time borrowers and the return to pre-pandemic underwriting criteria later in 2021. Annualized Net Charge-Off Rate Annualized Net Charge-Off Rate for the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 was 8.6% and 6.4%, respectively. Annualized Net Charge-Off Rate for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 was 8.6% and 7.5%, respectively. Due to credit tightening in response to the COVID-19 pandemic and government stimulus payments our Annualized Net Charge-Off Rate was lower in 2021. We anticipate that this rate may increase further in the current environment due to the impact of inflation on members. Return on Equity and Adjusted Return on Equity For the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, Return on Equity was (5.7)% and 6.1%, respectively, and Adjusted Return on Equity was 2.3% and 14.2%, respectively, For the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, Return on Equity was 11.8% and 4.4%, respectively, and Adjusted Return on Equity was 18.2% and 12.4%, respectively. The decreases in Return on Equity and Adjusted Return on Equity for the three months ended were primarily due to a net loss for the quarter. The net loss was primarily driven by the decrease in the fair value of our loan portfolio as a result of higher loss and discount rate assumptions and an increase in operating expenses, partially offset by increased revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2022 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2021. The increases in Return on Equity and Adjusted Return on Equity for the six months ended June 30, 2022 were primarily due to higher net income. The higher net income was primarily driven by increased revenue, partially offset by a decrease in fair value and an increase in operating expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2022 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2021. For a reconciliation of Return on Equity to Adjusted Return on Equity, see “Non–GAAP Financial Measures—Fair Value Pro Forma.” 24 Historical Credit Performance Our A.I.-driven credit models enable us to originate loans with low and stable loss rates. Our Annualized Net Charge-off Rate ranged between 7% and 9% from 2011 to 2019 and was 9.8% in 2020, a modest variance above this range during the pandemic. Due to credit tightening in response to the COVID-19 pandemic and government stimulus payments our Annualized Net Charge-Off Rate decreased to 6.8% in 2021. We anticipate that this rate may increase further in the current environment due to the impact of inflation on members. Consistent with our charge-off policy, we charge a loan off at the earlier of when the loan is determined to be uncollectible or when the loan is 120 days contractually past due and charge-off a credit card account when it is 180 days contractually past due. *Numbers shown reflect year-to-date amounts for the six months ended June 30, for the indicated fiscal year. In addition to monitoring our loss and delinquency performance on an owned portfolio basis, we also monitor the performance of our loans by the period in which the loan was disbursed, generally years or quarters, which we refer to as a vintage. We calculate net lifetime loan loss rate by vintage as a percentage of original principal balance. Net lifetime loan loss rates equal the net lifetime loan losses for a given year through June 30, 2022 divided by the total origination loan volume for that year. The below chart and table shows our net lifetime loan loss rate for each annual vintage of our personal loan product since we began lending in 2006, excluding loans originated from July 2017 to August 2020 under a loan program for borrowers who did not meet the qualifications for our core loan origination program. 100% of those loans were sold pursuant to a whole loan sale agreement. We were able to stabilize cumulative net loan losses after the financial crisis that started in 2008. We even achieved a net lifetime loan loss rate of 5.5% during the peak of the recession in 2009. The evolution of our credit models has allowed us to increase our average loan size and commensurately extend our average loan terms. Cumulative net lifetime loan losses for the 2015, 2016, 2017, and 2018 vintages increased partially due to the delay in tax refunds in 2017 and 2019, the impact of natural disasters such as Hurricane Harvey, and the longer duration of the loans. The 2018 and 2019 vintages are increasing due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The 2021 vintage is running higher than prior vintages primarily due to a higher percentage of loan disbursements to new members.

Total interest income increased by $79.1 million, or 61.5%, from $128.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021 to $207.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022. This increase was primarily attributable to higher Average Daily Principal Balance, which increased from $1.60 billion for the three months ended June 30, 2021 to $2.58 billion for the three months ended June 30, 2022. The increase is due to growth in our portfolio as a result of higher application volume due to increased demand. Total interest income increased by $144.1 million, or 56.3%, from $255.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 to $399.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022. This increase was primarily attributable to higher Average Daily Principal Balance, which increased from $1.61 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2021 to $2.50 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2022. The increase is due to growth in our portfolio as a result of higher application volume due to increased demand. Interest income was also favorably impacted by an increase in portfolio yield of 28 basis points in the six months ended June 30, 2022 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2021 due to growth in originations to new members who generally receive higher APRs than returning members. Non-interest income. Total non-interest income increased by $8.5 million, or 87.8%, from $9.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021 to $18.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022. This increase is primarily due to $9.1 million attributable to Digit subscription income, $3.4 million increase in servicing revenue, $0.9 million of increased fees related to our credit card portfolio and $0.5 million increase related to our Pathward, N.A. documentation fees. This was partially offset by decreased gain on loans sold of $5.3 million under our whole loan sale programs due to the expiration of our whole loan sale agreement on March 4, 2022. 27 Total non-interest income increased by $22.8 million, or 128.4%, from $17.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 to $40.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022. This increase is primarily due to $18.4 million attributable to Digit subscription income, $4.2 million increase in servicing revenue, $2.6 million of increased fees related to our credit card portfolio and $1.7 million increase related to our Pathward, N.A. documentation fees. This was partially offset by decreased gain on loans sold of $4.0 million, or 41.4% under our whole loan sale programs due to the expiration of our whole loan sale agreement on March 4, 2022. See Note 2, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies , and Note 13, Revenue , of the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) included elsewhere in this report for further discussion on our interest income, non-interest income and revenue.

Interest expense increased by $4.9 million, or 40.6%, from $12.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021 to $17.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022. We financed approximately 90.1% of our loans receivable through debt for the three months ended June 30, 2022, as compared to 93.2% for the three months ended June 30, 2021, and our Average Daily Debt Balance increased from $1.49 billion for the three months ended June 30, 2021 to $2.32 billion for the three months ended June 30, 2022, an increase of 56.0%. Cost of Debt decreased due to the refinancing of older securitizations in 2021 to lower interest rates. Our Cost of Debt has begun to increase due to increases in interest rates and wider credit spreads on our most recent asset-backed securitization issuances. Interest expense increased by $5.1 million, or 19.9%, from $25.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 to $30.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022. We financed approximately 89.8% of our loans receivable through debt for the six months ended June 30, 2022, as compared to 90.1% for the six months ended June 30, 2021, and our Average Daily Debt Balance increased slightly from $1.45 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2021 to $2.24 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2022, an increase of 54.4%. Cost of Debt decreased due to the refinancing of older securitizations in 2021 to lower interest rates. Our Cost of Debt has begun to increase due to increases in interest rates and wider credit spreads on our new asset-backed securitization issuances. Through the remainder of 2022, we expect our interest expense to increase as we borrow to fund our portfolio growth and benchmark rates increase . See Note 9, Borrowings , in the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) included elsewhere in this report for further information on our Interest expense and our Secured Financing and asset-backed notes. 28 Total net increase (decrease) in fair value Net increase (decrease) in fair value reflects changes in fair value of loans receivable held for investment and asset-backed notes on an aggregate basis and is based on a number of factors, including benchmark interest rates, credit spreads, remaining cumulative charge-offs and borrower payment rates. Increases in the fair value of loans increase Net Revenue. Conversely, decreases in the fair value of loans decrease Net Revenue. Increases in the fair value of asset-backed notes decrease Net Revenue. Decreases in the fair value of asset-backed notes increase Net Revenue. We also have derivative instruments related to our bank partnership program with Pathward, N.A. Changes in the fair value of the derivative instrument are reflected in the total fair value mark-to-market adjustment below.

The cumulative mark on loans sold shown for the six months ended June 30, 2022 also includes $15.9 million related to the cumulative fair value mark on the loans sold in the 2022-1 transaction. This cumulative mark on loans sold represents the life-to-date mark-to-market adjustment for the loans sold and is presented separately for the loans sold to assist in reconciling to our non-GAAP measure, Adjusted EBITDA. For details regarding the Q2 2022 Loan Sale and the 2022-1 transaction, refer to Note 5, Loans Held for Sale and Loans Sold of the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) included elsewhere in this report. Net increase (decrease) in fair value. Net decrease in fair value for the three months ended June 30, 2022 was $63.5 million. This amount represents a total fair value mark-to-market increase of $11.7 million, and $55.1 million of charge-offs, net of recoveries on Loans Receivable at Fair Value. The total fair value mark-to-market adjustment consists of a $(34.6) million mark-to-market reduction on Loans Receivable at Fair Value due to (a) an increase in remaining cumulative charge-offs from 10.37% as of March 31, 2022 to 11.25% as of June 30, 2022, (b) an increase in the discount rate from 6.76% as of March 31, 2022 to 8.97% as of June 30, 2022, partially offset by (c) an increase in average life from 0.85 years as of March 31, 2022 to 0.90 years as of June 30, 2022, The $44.5 million mark-to-market adjustment on asset-backed notes is due to rising rates and widening asset-backed securitization spreads. The total net increase (decrease) in fair value for the three months ended June 30, 2022 also includes a $(14.1) million adjustment related to the cumulative mark on the loans sold as part of the Q2 2022 Loan Sale. Net decrease in fair value for the six months ended June 30, 2022 was $59.5 million. This amount represents a total fair value mark-to-market increase of $52.7 million, and $106.4 million of charge-offs, net of recoveries on Loans Receivable at Fair Value. The total fair value mark-to-market adjustment consists of a $51.5 million mark-to-market reduction on Loans Receivable at Fair Value due to (a) an increase in remaining cumulative charge-offs from 9.60% as of December 31, 2021 to 11.25% as of June 30, 2022, (b) an increase in the discount rate from 6.94% as of December 31, 2021 to 8.97% as of June 30, 2022, partially offset by (c) an increase in average life from 0.86 years as of December 31, 2021 to 0.90 years as of June 30, 2022, The $102.7 million mark-to-market adjustment on asset-backed notes is due to rising rates and widening asset-backed securitization spreads. The total net increase (decrease) in fair value for the six months ended June 30, 2022 includes a $(14.1) million adjustment related to the cumulative mark on the loans sold as part of the Q2 2022 Loan Sale completed in the second quarter of 2022 and also includes a $15.9 million adjustment related to the cumulative mark on the loans sold as part of the structured sale completed in the first quarter of 2022. Through the remainder of 2022, we expect to continue to see volatility in fair value as a result of macroeconomic conditions. 29 Charge-offs, net of recoveries Three Months Ended June 30, Period-to-period Change Six Months Ended June 30, Period-to-period Change (in thousands, except percentages) 2022 2021 $ % 2022 2021 $ % Total charge-offs, net of recoveries $ 55,097 $ 25,651 $ 29,446 114.8 % $ 106,447 $ 60,259 $ 46,188 76.6 % Average Daily Principal Balance $ 2,577,186 $ 1,596,320 $ 980,866 61.4 % $ 2,495,546 $ 1,610,471 $ 885,075 55.0 % Annualized Net Charge-Off Rate 8.6 % 6.4 % 8.6 % 7.5 % Charge-offs, net of recoveries. Our Annualized Net Charge-Off Rate increased to 8.6% and 8.6% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively, from 6.4% and 7.5% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively. Net charge-offs for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2022 increased primarily due to growth in new loan originations and a strategic underwriting change to accelerate growth in the portfolio while maintaining a reasonable level of loss expectation. Consistent with our charge-off policy, we evaluate our loan portfolio and charge a loan off at the earlier of when the loan is determined to be uncollectible or when the loan is 120 days contractually past due and we charge-off a credit card account when it is 180 days contractually past due. Operating expenses Operating expenses consist of technology and facilities, sales and marketing, personnel, outsourcing and professional fees and general, administrative and other expense. Technology and facilities Technology and facilities expense is the largest segment of our operating expenses, representing the costs required to build our A.I.-enabled digital platform, and consisting of three components. The first component comprises costs associated with our technology, engineering, information security, cybersecurity, platform development, maintenance, and end user services, including fees for software licenses, consulting, legal and other services as a result of our efforts to grow our business, as well as personnel expenses. The second includes rent for retail and corporate locations, utilities, insurance, telephony costs, property taxes, equipment rental expenses, licenses and fees and depreciation and amortization. Lastly, the third category includes all software licenses, subscriptions, and technology service costs to support our corporate operations, excluding sales and marketing.

General, administrative and other expense increased by $6.8 million, or 66%, from $10.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021 to $16.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022, primarily due to $6.9 million of transaction and integration related expenses as a result of the Digit acquisition, $2.5 million increase in litigation expense and $3.8 million increase in postage and printing expenses, travel expenses and other general and administrative expenses due to new products and services and continuing growth of the business. These increases were partially offset by a $3.3 million decrease attributable to an impairment charge recognized in 2021 on a right-of-use asset related to our leased office space in San Carlos, California, not present in the current year and a $3.4 million decrease in retail network optimization expenses incurred in the three months ended June 30, 2022 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2021. In the second quarter of 2022, we incurred $1.5 million in expenses related to the retail location closures. General, administrative and other expense increased by $10.1 million, or 50%, from $20.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 to $30.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022, primarily due to $14.2 million of transaction and integration related expenses as a result of the Digit acquisition, $2.7 million increase in litigation expense and 8.0 million increase in postage and printing expenses, travel expenses and other general and administrative expenses due to new products and services and continuing growth of the business. These increases were partially offset by a $3.3 million decrease attributable to an impairment charge recognized in 2021 on a right-of-use asset related to our leased office space in San Carlos, California, not present in the current year and a $11.0 million decrease in retail network optimization expenses incurred in the six months ended June 30, 2022 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2021. In the six months ended June 30, 2022, we incurred $1.7 million in expenses related to the retail location closures. Income taxes Income taxes consist of U.S. federal, state and foreign income taxes, if any. For the periods ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, we recognized tax expense (benefit) attributable to U.S. federal, state and foreign income taxes.

Income tax expense increased by $5.0 million or 142%, from $3.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 to $8.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022, primarily as a result of having higher pretax income for the six months ended June 30, 2022. See Note 2, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies , and Note 14, Income Taxes , of the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) included elsewhere in this report for further discussion on our income taxes. 32 Fair Value Estimate Methodology for Loans Receivable at Fair Value Summary Fair value is an electable option under GAAP to account for any financial instruments, including loans receivable and debt. It differs from amortized cost accounting in that loans receivable and debt are recorded on the balance sheet at fair value rather than on a cost basis. Under the fair value option credit losses are recognized through income as they are incurred rather than through the establishment of an allowance and provision for losses. The fair value of instruments under this election is updated at the end of each reporting period, with changes since the prior reporting period reflected in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations (Unaudited) as net increase (decrease) in fair value which impacts Net Revenue. Changes in interest rates, credit spreads, realized and projected credit losses and cash flow timing will lead to changes in fair value and therefore impact earnings. These changes in the fair value of the Loans Receivable at Fair Value may be partially offset by changes in the fair value of the asset-backed notes, depending upon the relative duration of the instruments. Fair Value Estimate Methodology for Loans Receivable at Fair Value We calculate the fair value of Loans Receivable at Fair Value using a model that projects and discounts expected cash flows. The fair value is a function of: • Portfolio yield; • Average life; • Prepayments (or principal payment rate for our credit card receivables); • Remaining cumulative charge-offs; and • Discount rate. Portfolio yield is the expected interest and fees collected from the loans as an annualized percentage of outstanding principal balance. Portfolio yield is based upon (a) the contractual interest rate, reduced by expected delinquencies and interest charge-offs and (b) late fees, net of late fee charge-offs based upon expected delinquencies. Origination fees are not included in portfolio yield since they are generally capitalized as part of the loan’s principal balance at origination. Average life is the time-weighted average of expected principal payments divided by outstanding principal balance. The timing of principal payments is based upon the contractual amortization of loans, adjusted for the impact of prepayments, Good Customer Program refinances, and charge-offs. Prepayments are the expected remaining cumulative principal payments that will be repaid earlier than contractually required over the life of the loan, divided by the outstanding principal balance. For credit card receivables we estimate principal payment rates which are the expected amount and timing of principal payments over the life of the receivable. Remaining cumulative charge-offs is the expected net principal charge-offs over the remaining life of the loans, divided by the outstanding principal balance. Discount rate is the sum of the interest rate and the credit spread. The interest rate is based upon the interpolated treasury curve rate that corresponds to the average life. The credit spread is based upon the credit spread implied by the loan purchase price at the time loans are sold, updated for observable changes in the fixed income markets, which serve as a proxy for how a potential loan buyer would adjust their yield requirements relative to the originally agreed price. Our internal valuation committee includes members from our risk, legal, finance, capital markets and operations departments and provides governance and oversight over the fair value pricing and related financial statement disclosures. Additionally, this committee provides a challenge of the assumptions used and outputs of the model, including the appropriateness of such measures and periodically reviews the methodology and process to determine the fair value pricing. Any significant changes to the process must be approved by the committee. It is also possible to estimate the fair value of our loans using a simplified calculation. The table below illustrates a simplified calculation to aid investors in understanding how fair value may be estimated using the last six quarters: • Subtracting the servicing fee from the weighted average portfolio yield over the remaining life of the loans to calculate net portfolio yield; • Multiplying the net portfolio yield by the weighted average life in years of the loans receivable, which is based upon the contractual amortization of the loans and expected remaining prepayments and charge-offs, to calculate pre-loss net cash flow; • Subtracting the remaining cumulative charge-offs from the net portfolio yield to calculate the net cash flow; • Subtracting the product of the discount rate and the average life from the net cash flow to calculate the gross fair value premium as a percentage of loan principal balance; and • Subtracting the accrued interest and fees as a percentage of loan principal balance from the gross fair value premium as a percentage of loan principal balance to calculate the fair value premium as a percentage of loan principal balance. 33 The table below reflects the application of this methodology for the six quarters since January 1, 2021, on loans held for investment. The data for the three months ended June 30, 2022, March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021 in the table below represents all of our credit products. The data for the three months ended September 30, 2021 in the table below represents our secured and unsecured loan portfolio. For prior quarters, the data in the table below represents only our unsecured personal loan portfolio which was the primary driver of fair value during those periods.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures We believe that the provision of non-GAAP financial measures in this report, including Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted EPS, Adjusted Operating Efficiency and Adjusted Return on Equity, can provide useful measures for period-to-period comparisons of our core business and useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating our operating results. However, non-GAAP financial measures are not calculated in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, and should not be considered as an alternative to any measures of financial performance calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. There are limitations related to the use of these non-GAAP financial measures versus their most directly comparable GAAP measures, which include the following: ▪ Other companies, including companies in our industry, may calculate these measures differently, which may reduce their usefulness as a comparative measure. ▪ These measures do not consider the potentially dilutive impact of stock-based compensation. ▪ Although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized may have to be replaced in the future and Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect cash capital expenditure requirements for such replacements or for new capital expenditure requirements. ▪ Although the fair value mark-to-market adjustment is a non-cash adjustment, it does reflect our estimate of the price a third party would pay for our loans receivable held for investment or our asset-backed notes. ▪ Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect tax payments that may represent a reduction in cash available to us. Reconciliations of non-GAAP to GAAP measures can be found below. Adjusted EBITDA Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure defined as our net income, adjusted to eliminate the effect of certain items as described below. We believe that Adjusted EBITDA is an important measure because it allows management, investors and our Board to evaluate and compare our operating results, including our return on capital and operating efficiencies, from period-to-period by making the adjustments described below. In addition, it provides a useful measure for period-to-period comparisons of our business, as it removes the effect of taxes, certain non-cash items, variable charges and timing differences. • We believe it is useful to exclude the impact of income tax expense, as reported, because historically it has included irregular income tax items that do not reflect ongoing business operations. • We believe it is useful to exclude the impact of depreciation and amortization and stock-based compensation expense because they are non-cash charges. • We believe it is useful to exclude the impact of certain non-recurring charges, such as expenses associated with a litigation reserve, our retail network optimization plan, impairment charges and acquisition and integration related expenses because these items do not reflect 34 ongoing business operations. • We also reverse origination fees for Loans Receivable at Fair Value, net. We recognize the full amount of any origination fees as revenue at the time of loan disbursement in advance of our collection of origination fees through principal payments. As a result, we believe it is beneficial to exclude the uncollected portion of such origination fees, because such amounts do not represent cash that we received. • We also reverse the fair value mark-to-market adjustment because it is a non-cash adjustment as shown in the table below. Components of Fair Value Mark-to-Market Adjustment (in thousands) Three Months Ended June 30, Six Months Ended June 30, 2022 2021 2022 2021 Fair value mark-to-market adjustment on loans receivable at fair value (1) $ (34,605) $ 17,809 $ (51,542) $ 39,371 Fair value mark-to-market adjustment on asset-backed notes 44,477 2,013 102,748 3,537 Fair value mark-to-market adjustment on derivatives 1,877 (250) $ 1,484 $ (296) Total fair value mark-to-market adjustment $ 11,749 $ 19,572 $ 52,690 $ 42,612 (1) The fair value mark-to-market adjustment on loans receivable at fair value shown for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 excludes ($14.1) million related to the cumulative fair value mark on the loans sold in the Q2 2022 Loan Sale. The fair value mark-to-market adjustment on loans receivable at fair value shown for the six months ended June 30, 2022 also excludes $15.9 million related to the cumulative fair value mark on the loans sold in the 2022-1 transaction. For details regarding the Q2 2022 Loan Sale and the 2022-1 transaction, refer to Note 5, Loans Held for Sale and Loans Sold of the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) included elsewhere in this report.

We believe that Adjusted Net Income is an important measure of operating performance because it allows management, investors, and our Board to evaluate and compare our operating results, including our return on capital and operating efficiencies, from period to period. • We believe it is useful to exclude the impact of income tax expense, as reported, because historically it has included irregular tax items that do not reflect our ongoing business operations. • We believe it is useful to exclude the impact of certain non-recurring charges, such as expenses associated with a litigation reserve, our retail network optimization plan, impairment charges and acquisition and integration related expenses, because these items do not reflect ongoing business operations. • We believe it is useful to exclude stock-based compensation expense because it is a non-cash charge. • We include the impact of normalized statutory income tax expense by applying the income tax rate noted in the table.

Adjusted Earnings Per Share (“Adjusted EPS”) Adjusted Earnings Per Share is a non-GAAP financial measure that allows management, investors and our Board to evaluate the operating results, operating trends and profitability of the business in relation to diluted adjusted weighted-average shares outstanding. The following table presents a reconciliation of Diluted EPS to Diluted Adjusted EPS for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021. For the reconciliation of net income to Adjusted Net Income, see the immediately preceding table “Adjusted Net Income.” Three Months Ended June 30, Six Months Ended June 30, (in thousands, except share and per share data) 2022 2021 2022 2021 Diluted earnings per share $ (0.28) $ 0.24 $ 1.10 $ 0.34 Adjusted EPS Adjusted Net Income $ 3,751 $ 16,964 $ 56,486 $ 29,206 Basic weighted-average common shares outstanding 32,831,499 28,004,699 32,525,768 27,888,029 Weighted average effect of dilutive securities: Stock options — 1,327,358 453,695 1,301,088 Restricted stock units — 718,790 262,218 646,972 Diluted adjusted weighted-average common shares outstanding 32,831,499 30,050,847 33,241,681 29,836,089 Adjusted Earnings Per Share $ 0.11 $ 0.56 $ 1.70 $ 0.98 Adjusted Return on Equity We define Adjusted Return on Equity as annualized Adjusted Net Income divided by average stockholders’ equity. Average stockholders’ equity is an average of the beginning and ending stockholders’ equity balance for each period. We believe Adjusted Return on Equity is an important measure because it allows management, investors and our Board to evaluate the profitability of the business in relation to stockholders' equity and how efficiently we generate income from stockholders' equity. The following table presents a reconciliation of Return on Equity to Adjusted Return on Equity as of and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021. For the reconciliation of net income to Adjusted Net Income, see the immediately preceding table “Adjusted Net Income.” As of or for the Three Months Ended June 30, As of or for the Six Months Ended June 30, (in thousands) 2022 2021 2022 2021 Return on Equity (5.7) % 6.1 % 11.8 % 4.4 % Adjusted Return on Equity Adjusted Net Income $ 3,751 $ 16,964 $ 56,486 $ 29,206 Average stockholders' equity $ 649,067 $ 478,163 $ 626,040 $ 475,605 Adjusted Return on Equity 2.3 % 14.2 % 18.2 % 12.4 % 36 Adjusted Operating Efficiency We define Adjusted Operating Efficiency as total operating expenses adjusted to exclude stock-based compensation expense and certain non-recurring charges such as expenses associated with a litigation reserve, our retail network optimization plan, impairment charges and acquisition and integration related expenses divided by total revenue. We believe Adjusted Operating Efficiency is an important measure because it allows management, investors and our Board to evaluate how efficiently we manage costs relative to revenue. The following table presents a reconciliation of Operating Efficiency to Adjusted Operating Efficiency for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021: As of or for the Three Months Ended June 30, As of or for the Six Months Ended June 30, (in thousands) 2022 2021 2022 2021 Operating Efficiency 69.9 % 79.8 % 69.3 % 79.2 % Adjusted Operating Efficiency Total revenue 225,802 138,254 440,522 273,567 Total operating expense 157,886 110,386 305,230 216,652 Stock-based compensation expense (6,929) (5,366) (13,702) (10,454) Litigation reserve (2,450) — (2,750) — Retail network optimization expenses, net (1,488) (4,874) (1,697) (12,673) Impairment — (3,324) $ — $ (3,324) Acquisition and integration related expenses (6,944) — $ (14,231) $ — Total adjusted operating expenses $ 140,075 $ 96,822 $ 272,850 $ 190,201 Adjusted Operating Efficiency 62.0 % 70.0 % 61.9 % 69.5 % Liquidity and Capital Resources To date, we fund the majority of our operating liquidity and operating needs through a combination of cash flows from operations, securitizations, secured borrowings and whole loan sales. We may utilize these or other sources in the future. Our material cash requirements relate to funding our lending activities, our debt service obligations, our operating expenses, and investments in the long-term growth of the company. During the three months ended June 30, 2022, available liquidity increased primarily due to increased borrowing capacity under Secured Financings and asset-backed securitizations, partially offset by a decrease in cash and cash equivalents. We generally target liquidity levels to support at least twelve months of our expected net cash outflows, including new originations, without access to new debt financing transactions or other capital markets activity. R ising interest rates, credit trends and other macroeconomic conditions could continue to have an impact on market volatility which could adversely impact our business, liquidity, and capital resources. Future decreases in cash flows from operations resulting from delinquencies, defaults, losses, would decrease the cash available for the capital uses described above. We may incur additional indebtedness or issue equity in order to meet our capital spending and liquidity requirements, as well as to fund growth opportunities that we may pursue. Cash and cash flows The following table summarizes our cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash and cash flows for the periods indicated: Six Months Ended June 30, (in thousands) 2022 2021 Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash $ 133,856 $ 357,969 Cash provided by (used in) Operating activities 91,642 53,838 Investing activities (638,024) (57,151) Financing activities 487,278 192,692 Our cash is held for working capital purposes and originating loans. Our restricted cash represents collections held in our securitizations and is applied currently after month-end to pay interest expense and satisfy any amount due to whole loan buyer with any excess amounts returned to us. Our restricted cash balance was elevated as of June 30, 2021 due to $171.3 million of cash in the prefunding account of our 2021-B securitization. Operating Activities Our net cash provided by operating activities was $91.6 million and $53.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Cash flows from operating activities primarily include net income or losses adjusted for (i) non-cash items included in net income or loss, including depreciation and amortization expense, fair value adjustments, net, origination fees for loans at fair value, net, gain on loan sales, stock-based compensation expense and deferred tax provision, net, (ii) originations of loans sold and held for sale, and proceeds from sale of loans and (iii) changes in the balances of operating assets and liabilities, which can vary significantly in the normal course of business due to the amount 37 and timing of various payments. Investing Activities Our net cash provided by (used in) investing activities was $(638.0) million and $(57.2) million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Our investing activities consist primarily of loan originations and loan repayments. Our net cash provided by (used in) investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2022, includes $247.2 million of proceeds related to a structured loan sale in the first quarter and the Q2 2022 Loan Sale in the second quarter. We invest in purchases of property and equipment and incur system development costs. Purchases of property and equipment, and capitalization of system development costs may vary from period to period due to the timing of the expansion of our operations, the addition of employee headcount and the development cycles of our system development. The change in our net cash provided by (used in) investing activities is due to disbursements on originations of loans increasing by $964.6 million while repayments of loan principal increased by $148.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2021. Financing Activities Our net cash provided by (used in) financing activities was $487.3 million and $192.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2022, net cash provided by financing activities was primarily driven the issuance of our Series 2022-A asset-backed securitization and the borrowings under our Secured Financing facilities and Acquisition Financing, partially offset by repayments of borrowings on our Secured Financing facilities and scheduled amortization payments on our Acquisition Financing facility. For the six months ended June 30, 2021, net cash provided by financing activities was primarily driven by the issuance of our Series 2021-A and Series 2021-B asset-backed notes, partially offset by redemptions of our Series 2018-A and 2018-B asset-backed notes and repayments on our Secured Financing facility. Sources of Funds Debt and Available Credit Asset-Backed Securitizations As of June 30, 2022, we had $1.94 billion of outstanding asset-backed notes. In addition, on July 22, 2022, we completed the issuance of $400 million two-year asset-backed notes. For additional information, see Note 9 , Borrowings of the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) included elsewhere in this report. Our securitizations utilize special purpose entities (SPEs) which are also variable inter est entities (VIEs). For VIEs where we have determined we are the primary beneficiary, the financial results of the VIE are consolidated in our financial statements. For VIEs where we have determined we are not the primary beneficiary, the financial results of the VIE are not consolidated in our financial statements. For more information regarding our VIEs and asset-backed securitizations, see Note 4, Variable Interest Entities and Note 9, Borrowings , respectively, of the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) included elsewhere in this report. Our ability to utilize our asset-backed securitization facilities as described herein is subject to compliance with various requirements including eligibility criteria for the loan collateral and covenants and other requirements. As of June 30, 2022, we were in compliance with all covenants and requirements of all our asset-backed notes. Secured Financings As of June 30, 2022 , we had Secured Financing facilities with warehouse lines of $750.0 million in the aggregate with undrawn capacity of $241.0 million. Our ability to utilize our Secured Financing facilities as described herein is subject to compliance with various requirements, including eligibility criteria for collateral, concentration limits for our collateral pool, and covenants and other requirements. Acquisition Financing On December 20, 2021, Oportun RF, LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company issued a $116.0 million asset-backed floating rate variable funding note, and an asset-backed residual certificate, both of which are secured by certain residual cash flows from the Company's securitizations and guaranteed by Oportun, Inc. The note was used to fund the cash consideration paid for the acquisition of Digit. On May 24, 2022, pursuant to an amended indenture, Oportun RF, LLC issued an additional $20.9 million asset-backed floating rate variable funding note, and an asset-backed residual certificate, both of which are secured by Class D Notes and residual cash flows from the Company's 2022-A Securitization and guaranteed by Oportun, Inc. The amendment also replaced the Acquisition Financing interest rate based on LIBOR with an interest rate based on SOFR. The notes bear interest at a rate of SOFR plus 8.00%. The amendment did not modify the maturity date of the Acquisition Financing facility, it is still structured to pay down based on an amortization schedule with a final payment in October 2024. As of June 30, 2022, we were in compliance with all covenants and requirements per the Secured Financing facilities and Acquisition Financing. For more information regarding our Secured Financing facilities and Acquisition Financing, see Note 9, Borrowings of the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) included elsewhere in this report. Structured loan sales In March 2022, we participated in a securitization and sold loans through the issuance of amortizing asset-backed notes secured by a pool of our unsecured and secured personal installment loans. We also sold our share of the residual interest in the pool. The sold loans had an aggregate unpaid principal balance of approximately $227.6 million. For further information on the structured loan sale transactions, see Note 5, Loans Held for Sale 38 and Loans Sold of the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) included elsewhere in this report. Other loan sales In April 2022, the Company entered into an agreement to sell a population of loans. The sold loans had an aggregate unpaid principal balance of approximately $14.7 million.

Whole loan sales Through March 4, 2022, the Company had a commitment to sell to a third-party institutional investor 10% of its unsecured loan originations that satisfy certain eligibility criteria, and an additional 5% subject to certain eligibility criteria and minimum and maximum volumes.

In accordance with the agreements underlying the bank partnership program, Oportun has a commitment to purchase an increasing percentage of program loans originated by Pathward based on thresholds specified in the agreements. Lending under the partnership was launched in August of 2021. Contractual Obligations and Commitments The material cash requirements for our contractual and other obligations primarily include those related our outstanding borrowings under our asset-backed notes, Acquisition Financing and Secured Financing, corporate and retail leases, and purchase commitments for technology used in the business. See Note 9, Borrowings and Note 16, Leases, Commitments and Contingencies of the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) included elsewhere in this report for more information. Liquidity Risks We believe that our existing cash balance, anticipated positive cash flows from operations and available borrowing capacity under our credit facilities will be sufficient to meet our anticipated cash operating expense and capital expenditure requirements through at least the next 12 months. We do not have any significant unused sources of liquid assets. If our available cash balances are insufficient to satisfy our liquidity requirements, we will seek additional debt or equity financing. In a rising interest rate environment, our ability to issue additional equity or incur debt may be impaired and our borrowing costs may increase. If we raise additional funds through the issuance of additional debt, the agreements governing such debt could contain covenants that would restrict our operations and such debt would rank senior to shares of our common stock. The sale of equity may result in dilution to our stockholders and those securities may have rights senior to those of our common stock. We may require additional capital beyond our currently anticipated amounts and additional capital may not be available on reasonable terms, or at all.
