NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
( Unaudited )
NOTE 1 - DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Business
Block, Inc. (together with its subsidiaries, "Block" or the "Company") creates tools that empower businesses, sellers, and individuals to participate in the economy. Block is comprised of two reportable segments, Square and Cash App. Square is a cohesive commerce ecosystem that helps sellers start, run, and grow their businesses, including enabling sellers to accept card payments, providing reporting and analytics, and facilitating next-day settlement. Square’s point-of-sale software and other business services help sellers manage inventory, locations, and employees; access financial services; engage buyers; build a website or online store; and grow sales. Cash App is an ecosystem of financial products and services focused on helping consumers make their money go further by enabling customers to store, send, receive, spend, invest, buy now, pay later ("BNPL"), borrow, or save their money. Cash App seeks to redefine the world’s relationship with money by making it more relatable, instantly available, and universally accessible.
Block was founded in 2009 and has offices globally. The Company does not designate a headquarters location as it adopted a distributed work model in 2021.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying interim condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company are unaudited. These interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP") and the applicable rules and regulations of the United States ("U.S.") Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. The December 31, 2024 condensed consolidated balance sheet was derived from the audited financial statements as of that date, but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements.
The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the audited consolidated financial statements and, in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments of a normal recurring nature considered necessary to state fairly the Company's consolidated financial position, results of operations, comprehensive income (loss), and cash flows for the interim periods. The condensed consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of Block and its wholly-owned and majority-owned subsidiaries, including variable interest entities for which the Company is deemed to be the primary beneficiary. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. Minority interests are recorded as a noncontrolling interest, which is reported as a component of stockholders' equity on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. The interim results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2025, or for any other future annual or interim period.
Beginning in the second quarter of 2025, the Company began classifying the majority of its newly originated customer loan products as loans held for investment. This classification change followed a comprehensive management review of all loan products, taking into account the Company’s business strategy, prevailing economic conditions, and market trends.
The information included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and related notes in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.
11
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, and expenses, as well as related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Actual results could differ from the Company’s estimates. To the extent that there are material differences between these estimates and actual results, the Company’s financial condition or operating results will be materially affected. The Company bases its estimates on current and past experience, to the extent that historical experience is predictive of future performance and other assumptions that the Company believes are reasonable under the circumstances. The Company evaluates these estimates on an ongoing basis.
Estimates, judgments, and assumptions in these condensed consolidated financial statements include, but are not limited to, those related to accrued transaction losses, contingencies, including outcomes from claims and disputes, valuation of loans held for sale, valuation of goodwill and acquired intangible assets, determination of goodwill and intangible asset impairment charges, determination of allowance for credit losses for loans held for investment, determination of allowance for credit losses for consumer receivables, allocation of acquired goodwill to reporting units, income and other taxes, operating and financing lease right-of-use assets and related liabilities, and share-based compensation.
The Company's estimates of valuation of loans held for sale, allowance for credit losses associated with consumer receivables and loans held for investment, and accrued transaction losses are based on historical experience, adjusted for market data relevant to the current economic environment. The Company will continue to update its estimates as developments occur and additional information is obtained. Refer to Note 5, Fair Value Measurements for further details on amortized cost over fair value of the loans, Note 6, Consumer Receivables, net for further details on consumer receivables, Note 7, Customer Loans for further details on customer loans, and Note 9, Other Consolidated Balance Sheet Components (Current) for further details on transaction losses.
Concentration of Credit Risk
For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and September 30, 2024, the Company had no customer that accounted for greater than 10% of total net revenue.
The Company had four third-party payment processors that represented approximately 41 %, 15 %, 14 %, and 11 % of settlements receivable as of September 30, 2025. As of December 31, 2024, the Company had three third-party processors that represented approximately 42 %, 17 % and 13 % of settlements receivable. In both periods, all other third-party payment processors were insignificant. Certain of the Company's products are reliant on third-party service providers such as partner banks, card issuers, and payment service providers. The Company's relationships with third-party service providers may result in operational concentration risks for some of these products.
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, marketable debt securities, settlements receivable, customer funds, consumer receivables, loans held for sale, and loans held for investment. To mitigate the risk of concentration associated with cash and cash equivalents, as well as restricted cash, funds are held with creditworthy institutions and, at certain times, temporarily swept into insured programs overnight to reduce single firm concentration risk. Amounts on deposit may exceed federal deposit insurance limits. The associated risk of concentration for marketable debt securities is mitigated by holding a diversified portfolio of highly rated investments. Settlements receivable are amounts due from well-established payment processing companies and normally take one or two business days to settle, which mitigates the associated risk of concentration. The associated risk of concentration for loans and consumer receivables is partially mitigated by credit evaluations that are performed prior to facilitating the offering of loans and receivables and ongoing performance monitoring of the Company’s loan customers.
12
Sales and Marketing Expenses
Advertising costs are expensed as incurred and in cluded in sales and marketing expenses on the condensed consolidated statements of operations. Total advertising costs w ere $ 137.4 million and $ 347.0 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively, compared to $ 81.9 million and $ 221.8 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, respectively. The C ompany also records services, incentives, and other costs to acquire customers that are not directly related to a revenue generating transaction as sales and marketing expenses, as the Company considers these to be marketing costs to encourage the usage of Cash App. These expenses include, but are not limited to, Cash App peer-to-peer processing costs and related transaction losses, card issuance costs, customer referral bonuses, and promotional giveaways. These costs are expensed as incurred. The Company recorded $ 232.2 million and $ 647.2 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively, compared to $ 234.4 million and $ 697.9 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, respectively, for such expenses.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In December 2023, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2023-09, Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (“ASU 2023-09”). The amendments expand income tax disclosure requirements by requiring an entity to disclose (i) specific categories in the rate reconciliation, (ii) additional information for reconciling items that meet a quantitative threshold, and (iii) the amount of taxes paid disaggregated by jurisdiction. The Company adopted this guidance effective for the annual reporting period beginning January 1, 2025. The adoption of ASU 2023-09 will impact the Company’s annual disclosures only.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted
In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU No. 2025-06, Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software ("ASU 2025-06"). The amendments are intended to clarify and modernize the accounting for costs related to internal-use software. The guidance removes all references to project stages and clarifies the threshold entities apply to begin capitalizing costs. The amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027, and interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. The Company does not expect the adoption to have a material impact on the Company's financial statements.
In July 2025, the FASB issued ASU No. 2025-05, Measurement of Credit Losses for Accounts Receivable and Contract Assets (“ASU 2025-05”). The amendments allow an entity to apply a practical expedient when estimating expected credit losses, which assumes that the current conditions as of the balance sheet date will not change for the remaining life of the accounts receivable and contract assets arising from contracts with customers. The amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2025, and interim reporting periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. If the practical expedient is elected, the amendments should be applied prospectively. The Company does not expect the adoption to have a material impact on the Company's financial statements.

NOTE 6 - CONSUMER RECEIVABLES, NET
Consumer receivables represent amounts due from consumers for outstanding installment payments on orders processed on the Company's BNPL platform. Consumer receivables are classified as held for investment. These receivables are typically interest free and are generally due within 14 to 56 days.
The Company classifies consumer receivables as held for sale when the Company has the intent to sell all of its rights, title, and interest in these receivables to third-party investors, and there is an available market for such receivables. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, $ 210.0 million and $ 630.0 million of consumer receivables were reclassified from loans held for investment to loans held for sale and sold to third parties, respectively. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, $ 122.5 million and $ 254.1 million of consumer receivables were reclassified from loans held for investment to loans held for sale and sold to third parties, respectively. Net losses on sales of consumer receivables were immaterial for both the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and September 30, 2024.
18
The Company closely monitors credit quality for consumer receivables to manage and evaluate its related exposure to credit risk. The criteria the Company monitors when assessing the credit quality and risk of its consumer receivables portfolio is primarily based on internal risk assessments, as they provide insight into customer risk profiles and are useful as indicators of potential future credit losses. Consumer receivables are internally rated as "Pass" or "Classified." Pass rated consumer receivables generally consist of consumer receivables that are current or up to 60 days past due. Classified consumer receivables are generally comprised of consumer receivables that are greater than 60 days past due and have a higher risk of default. Internal risk ratings are reviewed and, generally, updated at least once a year. As of September 30, 2025, the amortized cost of Pass rated consumer receivables was $ 2.2 billion and the amount of Classified consumer receivables was $ 131.5 million.
The following table presents an aging analysis of the amortized cost of consumer receivables by delinquency status (in thousands):
September 30, 2025 December 31, 2024
Non-delinquent loans $ 1,839,027 $ 2,227,348
1 - 60 days past due 315,598 369,173
61 - 90 days past due 34,351 29,334
90+ days past due 97,122 80,817
Total amortized cost $ 2,286,098 $ 2,706,672
The amount listed as 1 - 60 days past due in the above table includes $ 220.2 million and $ 266.7 million of cash in transit as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively, which reflects ongoing repayments from consumers that have been sent from consumers’ bank accounts but have not yet been received at the Company’s bank account as of the date of the financial statements.
Consumer receivables are charged off when they are over 180 days past due as the Company has no reasonable expectation of recovery. When consumer receivables are charged off, the Company recognizes the charge against the allowance for credit losses. While the Company expects collections at that point to be unlikely, the Company may recover amounts from the respective consumers. Any subsequent recoveries following charge-off are credited to transaction, loan, and consumer receivable losses on the condensed consolidated statements of operations in the period they are recovered. The amount of recoveries for both the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and September 30, 2024 were immaterial.
The following table summarizes activity in the allowance for credit losses for consumer receivables (in thousands):

NOTE 7 - CUSTOMER LOANS
Customer loans primarily consist of Square Loans and Cash App Borrow products. Square Loans are facilitated by the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary, Square Financial Services, to qualified Square sellers. The majority of Square Loans are sold to third-party investors with a portion retained on the Company’s balance sheet. Cash App Borrow is a credit product for consumers that allows customers to access short-term loans for a small fee. Historically, Cash App Borrow loans were originated through a partnership with an industrial bank, from whom the Company purchased the loans obtaining all rights, title, and interest, and were classified as held for sale on the Company’s balance sheet. Beginning in the second quarter of 2025, the Company also began originating Cash App Borrow loans through Square Financial Services. The Cash App Borrow loans originated through Square Financial Services are retained on the Company’s balance sheet and classified as held for investment. Beginning July 1, 2025, Cash App Borrow loans and certain other customer loan products purchased from the industrial bank, along with all customer loan products originated through Square Financial Services, are retained on the Company's balance sheet and classified as held for investment.
The Company classifies customer loans as held for investment when the Company has both the intent and ability to hold them for the foreseeable future, until maturity, or until payoff. Customer loans are classified as held for sale when there is an available market for such loans and it is the Company’s intent to sell all of its rights, title, and interest in these loans to third-party investors. The Company’s intent and ability in the future may change based on changes in the business strategies, the economic environment, and market conditions.
The Company categorizes loans held for investment and loans held for sale by the intended customer of the loan product. Commercial loans primarily include Square Loans; Consumer loans include Cash App Borrow and consumer lending loans; and Other loans include those outside of consumer and commercial loans such as Square credit card.
Loans Held for Investment
Loans held for investment are recorded at amortized cost, less an allowance for potential uncollectible amounts. Amortized cost basis represents principal amounts outstanding, net of unearned income, unamortized deferred fees and costs on originated loans, premiums or discounts on purchased loans and charge-offs. The following table presents the Company's loans held for investment by category (in thousands) as of September 30, 2025. The amount of charge-offs recorded and amount of recoveries for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 were immaterial.

As of December 31, 2024, the Company held $ 365.1 million of Commercial loans held for investment, net of allowance of $ 23.1 million. The amount of charge-offs recorded and amount of recoveries for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 were immaterial.
The Company considers Square Loans that are greater than 60 days past due to be delinquent, and Square Loans 90 days or more past due to be nonperforming. Square Loans that are 120 days or more past due are generally considered to be uncollectible and are written off. When a Square Loan is identified as nonperforming, recognition of income is discontinued. Square Loans are restored to performing status after total overdue unpaid amounts are repaid and the Company has reasonable assurance that performance under the terms of the loan will continue. Cash App Borrow loans that are 1 day or greater past due are considered delinquent, and those that are 90 days or more past due are generally considered to be uncollectible and are written off. As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the amount of loans that were identified as nonperforming loans was immaterial.

The Company closely monitors economic conditions and loan performance trends to assess and manage its exposure to credit risk. The criteria the Company monitors when assessing the credit quality and risk of its loan portfolio is primarily based on internal risk ratings, as they provide insight into borrower risk profiles and are useful as indicators of potential future credit losses. Loans are internally rated as "Pass" or "Classified." Pass rated Square Loans generally consist of loans that are current or up to 60 days past due. Classified Square Loans generally comprise of loans that are greater than 60 days past due and have a higher risk of default. Pass rated Cash App Borrow loans generally consist of loans that are current. Classified Cash App Borrow loans are comprised of loans that are 1 day or greater past due, due to their short-term nature and repayment period, and have a higher risk of default. Internal risk ratings are reviewed and, generally, updated at least annually. As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the amortized cost of Pass rated loans was $ 2.2 billion and $ 385.2 million, respectively. The amount of Classified loans as of September 30, 2025 was $ 247.6 million and immaterial as of December 31, 2024.
Loans Held for Sale

Consumer 109,320 652,489
Other 56,791 53,774
Total $ 778,039 $ 1,111,107
Loans held for sale are recorded at the lower of amortized cost or fair value. Square Loans that are 120 days or more past due and Cash App Borrow loans that are 90 days or more past due are generally considered to be uncollectible and are written off. Past due status is based on contractual terms of the loans.
For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, $ 1.1 billion and $ 3.3 billion of Square Loans were sold to third-party investors, respectively, and the Company recognized net gains on the sales of loans of $ 62.0 million and $ 189.7 million for the same periods. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, $ 1.0 billion and $ 3.2 billion of Square Loans were sold to third-party investors, respectively, and the Company recognized net gains on sales of loans of $ 58.5 million and $ 178.4 million for the same periods. The net gains on sales of loans are recognized in net income through “Subscription and services-based revenue” in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations.

NOTE 11 - BITCOIN
A) Company Owned Bitcoin
The Company holds bitcoin for long-term investment purposes ("bitcoin investment") and also holds bitcoin for the facilitation of customer sales and purchases of bitcoin on Cash App ("bitcoin for operating purposes"). The Company accounts for its bitcoin as an indefinite-lived intangible asset in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 350, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other and has ownership of and control over its bitcoin.
The Company's bitcoin investment, which is included within “Other non-current assets” on the condensed consolidated balance sheets, is initially recorded at cost, inclusive of transaction costs, and remeasured at fair value at the end of each reporting period. Changes in fair value are recognized in net income through “Remeasurement loss (gain) on bitcoin investment” in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations. As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company held approximately 8,780 and 8,485 bitcoins for investment purposes with a cost basis of $ 282.2 million and $ 251.5 million, respectively.
The following table summarizes the changes in the Company’s bitcoin investment in the period (in thousands, except amount of bitcoin):

The Company’s bitcoin for operating purposes is initially recorded at cost, inclusive of transaction costs. Subsequent to purchase, any sales related to bitcoin occur at its current market price, plus a small margin. As such, any change in fair value of bitcoin purchased and sold for customer orders is captured within bitcoin revenue. Given the small amount of bitcoin for operating purposes held at any time, and that the bitcoin is held for a relatively short period of time, typically being purchased and sold within a day, the changes in fair value are not material to the Company. As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company held approximately 144 and 158 bitcoins for operating purposes with a fair value of $ 16.5 million and $ 15.3 million, respectively, to facilitate the purchases and sales of bitcoin on behalf of Cash App customers. The bitcoin for operating purposes is reflected on the condensed consolidated balance sheets within “Other current assets.”
B) Bitcoin Held for Other Parties
The Company allows its Cash App customers to store their bitcoin in the Company’s digital wallets free of charge. The Company also holds an immaterial amount of bitcoin from select trading partners to facilitate bitcoin transactions for customers on Cash App. Other than bitcoin, the Company does not hold or store any other types of crypto-assets for customers or trading partners. The Company holds the cryptographic key information and maintains the internal recordkeeping of the bitcoin held for other parties. The Company's contractual arrangements state that its customers and trading partners retain legal ownership of the bitcoin; have the right to sell, pledge, or transfer the bitcoin; and also benefit from the rewards and bear the risks associated with the ownership, including as a result of any bitcoin price fluctuations. The customer also bears the risk of loss as a result of fraud or theft, unless the loss was caused by the Company’s gross negligence or the Company’s willful misconduct. The Company does not use any of the bitcoin custodied for customers or trading partners as collateral for any of the Company’s loans or other financing arrangements; nor does it lend or pledge bitcoin held for others to any third parties. The Company occasionally engages third-party custodians to store and safeguard bitcoin on the Company's behalf. The Company has concluded, under ASC 450-20, Loss Contingencies, that it does not have a probable loss that would require it to recognize a custodial obligation as of September 30, 2025.

Senior Unsecured Notes due in 2030 and 2033
On August 18, 2025, the Company issued $ 2.2 billion in aggregate principal amount of senior unsecured notes, comprised of $ 1.2 billion in aggregate principal amount of senior notes due 2030 ("2030 Senior Notes") and $ 1.0 billion in aggregate principal amount of senior notes due 2033 ("2033 Senior Notes"). The 2030 Senior Notes mature on August 15, 2030, unless earlier redeemed or repurchased, and bear interest at a rate of 5.625 % payable semi-annually on February 15 and August 15 of each year, commencing on February 15, 2026. The 2033 Senior Notes mature on August 15, 2033, unless earlier redeemed or repurchased, and bear interest at a rate of 6.000 % payable semi-annually on February 15 and August 15 of each year, commencing on February 15, 2026. At any time prior to August 15, 2027, in the case of the 2030 Senior Notes, and at any time prior to August 15, 2028, in the case of the 2033 Senior Notes, the Company may redeem the applicable series, in whole or part, at a price equal to 100 % of the principal amount of the notes to be redeemed plus an applicable premium and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to but excluding the redemption date. The applicable premium for the 2030 Senior Notes and the 2033 Senior Notes, respectively, is the greater of (1) 1.0 % of the principal amount of such series of notes, and (2) the excess, if any, of (a) the sum of the present values at the redemption date of (i) the applicable redemption price of such note that would apply if such note were redeemed on August 15, 2027, in the case of the 2030 Senior Notes, and August 15, 2028, in the case of the 2033 Senior Notes, plus (ii) the remaining scheduled payments of interest due on such note to, and including, August 15, 2027, in the case of the 2030 Senior Notes, and August 15, 2028, in the case of the 2033 Senior Notes, (excluding accrued but unpaid interest to the redemption date) discounted to the redemption date on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the treasury rate (as defined in the applicable indenture) plus 50 basis points, over (b) the principal amount of such note to be redeemed. On and after August 15, 2027, in the case of the 2030 Senior Notes, and August 15, 2028, in the case of the 2033 Senior Notes, the Company may redeem the notes of the applicable series at specified prices as set forth in the applicable indenture plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the redemption date. If the Company experiences a change of control triggering event (as defined in the applicable indenture), the Company must offer to repurchase the 2030 Senior Notes or 2033 Senior Notes, as applicable, at a repurchase price equal to 101 % of the principal amount of the applicable notes to be repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the applicable repurchase date.
The indentures governing the 2030 Senior Notes and 2033 Senior Notes each contain covenants that, among other things, restrict the ability of the Company and/or its domestic restricted subsidiaries to create certain liens and certain indebtedness, enter into sale and leaseback transactions, or to transfer all or substantially all of the Company and its subsidiaries assets to another person. These covenants are subject to a number of other limitations and exceptions, each as set forth in the applicable indenture governing the 2030 Senior Notes and 2033 Senior Notes.
The indentures governing the 2030 Senior Notes and 2033 Senior Notes, as applicable, each provide for customary events of default, including, but not limited to, failure to pay principal and interest, failure to comply with covenants, agreements or conditions, and certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency involving the Company and its significant subsidiaries. In the case of an event of default arising from specified events of bankruptcy or insolvency involving the Company, all outstanding notes of the applicable series will become due and payable immediately without further action or notice. If any other event of default under the indenture governing the applicable notes occurs or is continuing, the trustee or holders of at least 25 % in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding applicable notes may declare all the applicable notes to be due and payable immediately.
Aggregate debt issuance costs related to the 2030 Senior Notes and 2033 Senior Notes were comprised of commissions payable to the initial purchasers of $ 22.0 million and third party offering costs of $ 6.3 million. Issuance costs are amortized to interest expense using the effective interest method at effective interest rates of 5.9 % and 6.2 % for the terms of the 2030 Senior Notes and 2033 Senior Notes, respectively.

Convertible Notes due in 2026 and 2027
On November 13, 2020, the Company issued $ 1.2 billion in aggregate principal amount of convertible senior notes comprised of $ 575.0 million in aggregate principal amount of convertible senior notes due 2026 ("2026 Convertible Notes") and $ 575.0 million in aggregate principal amount of convertible senior notes due 2027 ("2027 Convertible Notes"). The 2026 Convertible Notes mature on May 1, 2026, unless earlier converted or repurchased, and bear a zero rate of interest. The 2027 Convertible Notes mature on November 1, 2027, unless earlier converted or repurchased, and bear interest at a rate of 0.25 % payable semi-annually on May 1 and November 1 of each year.
The circumstances to allow the holders to convert their 2026 Convertible Notes and 2027 Convertible Notes were not met during the nine months ended September 30, 2025. As of September 30, 2025, no principal had converted and the if-converted value did not exceed the outstanding principal amount on either the 2026 Convertible Notes or 2027 Convertible Notes.
Convertible Notes due in 2025
On March 5, 2020, the Company issued $ 1.0 billion in aggregate principal amount of convertible senior notes ("2025 Convertible Notes"). As of the maturity date on March 1, 2025, certain holders of the 2025 Convertible Notes had converted an immaterial aggregate principal amount of their 2025 Convertible Notes, which were settled through the issuance of an immaterial amount of shares of the Company's Class A common stock. The Company paid a total of $ 1.0 billion in cash to settle the remaining unconverted principal balance, and interest, as of March 1, 2025.
B) Revolving Credit Facility & Other
In May 2020, the Company entered into a revolving credit agreement (as amended, the “Credit Agreement”) with certain lenders, which provides for a $ 775.0 million senior unsecured revolving credit facility maturing on June 9, 2028. The Credit Agreement contains a financial covenant requiring the Company to maintain a minimum liquidity amount (consisting of the sum of Unrestricted Cash and Cash Equivalents plus Marketable Securities, each as defined in the Credit Agreement, plus undrawn available commitments under the Credit Agreement) of at least $ 250.0 million, tested on the last day of each fiscal quarter. The Company is obligated to pay customary fees for a credit facility of this size and type including a commitment fee of 0.10 % to 0.20 % per annum on the undrawn portion of the revolving loan commitments available under the Credit Agreement. As of September 30, 2025, no funds have been drawn and no letters of credit have been issued under the Credit Agreement. The Company incurred immaterial unused commitment fees during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and September 30, 2024. As of September 30, 2025, the Company was in compliance with all financial covenants under the Credit Agreement.
Loans under the Credit Agreement bear interest at the Company's option of (i) an annual rate based on the forward-looking term rate based on the Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("Term SOFR") or (ii) a base rate. Loans based on Term SOFR shall bear interest at a rate equal to Term SOFR plus a margin of between 1.25 % and 1.75 %, depending on the Company's total net leverage ratio. Loans based on the base rate shall bear interest at a rate based on the highest of the prime rate, the federal funds rate plus 0.50 %, and Term SOFR with a tenor of one-month plus 1.00 %, in each case, plus a margin ranging from 0.25 % to 0.75 %, depending on the Company's total net leverage ratio. The Credit Agreement also contains customary affirmative and negative covenants typical for a financing of this type that, among other things, restricts the Company and certain of its subsidiaries’ ability to incur additional indebtedness, create liens, merge or consolidate or make certain dispositions, pay dividends and make distributions, enter into restrictive agreements, enter into agreements with affiliates, and make certain investments and acquisitions.
The Company also has uncommitted and unsecured lines of credit with certain third-party banks for short-term liquidity needs, subject to availability of funds, through Square Financial Services. There were no outstanding balances as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024.
29
C) Warehouse Funding Facilities
The Company has financing arrangements with financial institutions in Australia, New Zealand, the United States, and the United Kingdom (collectively, the “Warehouse Facilities”) in connection with the BNPL platform. The Warehouse Facilities have been arranged utilizing wholly-owned and consolidated entities (collectively, the "Warehouse Special Purpose Entities ("Warehouse SPEs")) formed for the sole purpose of financing the origination of consumer receivables to partly fund the Company's BNPL platform. Borrowings under the Warehouse Facilities are secured against the respective consumer receivables. While the Warehouse SPEs are included in our condensed consolidated financial statements, they are separate legal entities that maintain legal ownership of the receivables they hold. The assets of the Warehouse SPEs are not available to satisfy our claims or those of our creditors.
These Warehouse Facilities have maturity dates through September 2028. As of September 30, 2025, the aggregate amount of the Warehouse Facilities, using the respective exchange rates at period-end, was $ 1.5 billion on a revolving basis, of which $ 501.0 million was drawn and $ 983.1 million remained available. All Warehouse Facilities contain portfolio parameters based on performance of the underlying consumer receivables, which each respective region has satisfied as of September 30, 2025. None of the Warehouse Facilities contain corporate financial covenants.
All Warehouse Facilities are on a variable rate basis which aligns closely to the weighted-average life of the consumer receivables they finance. Borrowings under these facilities bear interest at (i) a base rate aligned to either the local risk free rate, such as Term SOFR and the Sterling Overnight Index Average or similar, and (ii) a margin which is set for the term of the availability period. The interest expense incurred on the Company's Warehouse Facilities is included within general and administrative as part of the Company's operating expenses. Interest expense on the Company's Warehouse Facilities was $ 10.7 million and $ 36.5 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively, and $ 16.4 million and $ 52.3 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, respectively. In addition, each Warehouse Facility requires payment of immaterial commitment fees.
The table below summarizes the future scheduled principal payments of amounts drawn on the Company's Warehouse Facilities (in thousands):
September 30, 2025
2026 (i)
$ 176,194
2027 284,805
2028 40,000
Total $ 500,999
(i) Includes $ 157.4 million of future scheduled principal payments in 2026, which are disclosed as warehouse funding facilities, current, within total current liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheet.
NOTE 13 - INCOME TAXES
The Company recorded an income tax expense of $ 139.9 million and $ 299.3 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively, compared to an income tax expense of $ 43.0 million and $ 137.5 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, respectively. The difference between the income tax expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and the income tax expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 primarily relates to the pre-tax results for each quarter and maintaining a valuation allowance on U.S. deferred tax assets through the third quarter of 2024.
The difference between income tax at the U.S. federal statutory rate and the income tax expense recorded for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 is primarily due to the generation of tax credits and a change in the deferred tax valuation allowance in Ireland and Spain.
30
The Company is subject to income taxes in the U.S. and certain foreign tax jurisdictions. The tax provision for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and September 30, 2024 is calculated on a jurisdictional basis. The Company estimated the worldwide income tax provision using the estimated annual effective income tax rate expected to be applicable for the full year. The Company’s effective tax rate may be subject to fluctuations during the year as new information is obtained, which may affect, among other things, the assumptions used to estimate the annual effective tax rate, including factors such as the mix of forecasted pre-tax earnings in the various jurisdictions in which the Company operates, changes in valuation allowances against deferred tax assets, the recognition and de-recognition of tax benefits related to uncertain tax positions, and changes in or the interpretation of tax laws in jurisdictions where the Company conducts business.
On July 4, 2025, the United States enacted the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (H.R. 1), which includes significant changes to federal tax law. The Company has recognized the impacts in the third quarter of 2025, the period in which the law was enacted. The Company anticipates a material reduction for expected cash taxes paid in fiscal year 2025. While we continue to evaluate the impact for future years, we do not expect a material impact to our current year effective tax rates for income taxes.
NOTE 14 - STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY
Share Repurchase Program
In October 2023, the board of directors of the Company authorized the repurchase of up to $ 1 billion of the Company’s Class A common stock. On July 25, 2024, the board of directors of the Company authorized an increase to the Company's share repurchase program to repurchase up to an additional $ 3 billion of the Company’s Class A common stock. During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company repurchased 24.6 million shares of its Class A common stock for an aggregate amount of $ 1.5 billion. As of September 30, 2025, $ 1.1 billion remained available and authorized for repurchases under this share repurchase program.
Repurchases may be made from time to time through open market purchases or through privately negotiated transactions subject to market conditions, applicable legal requirements and other relevant factors. The repurchase program does not obligate the Company to acquire any particular amount of its Class A common stock and may be suspended at any time at the Company’s discretion. The timing and number of shares repurchased will depend on a variety of factors, including the stock price, business and market conditions, corporate and regulatory requirements, alternative investment opportunities, acquisition opportunities, and other factors.
Conversion of Convertible Notes and Exercise of Convertible Note Hedges
As of the maturity date on March 1, 2025, certain holders of the 2025 Convertible Notes had converted an immaterial aggregate principal amount of their 2025 Convertible Notes. The Company settled the conversions through the issuance of an immaterial amount of shares of the Company's Class A common stock and paid a total of $ 1.0 billion in cash to settle the remaining unconverted principal balance, and interest, as of March 1, 2025. Additionally, there were no convertible note hedges exercised, and no shares were received as of September 30, 2025.
Warrants
In conjunction with the 2025 Convertible Notes offering, the Company sold the 2025 Warrants whereby the counterparties had the option to purchase a total of approximately 8.3 million shares of the Company’s Class A common stock at a price of $ 161.34 per share. The 2025 Warrants expired evenly over a 60 trading day period starting on June 1, 2025 and ending on August 26, 2025. None of the warrants were exercised as of September 30, 2025.
31
Stock Plans
The Company maintains two share-based employee compensation plans: the 2015 Equity Incentive Plan ("2015 Plan") and the 2025 Equity Incentive Plan ("2025 Plan"). The 2025 Plan became effective as of June 17, 2025 and replaced the 2015 Plan as of such date, such that no further awards will be granted under the 2015 Plan. Any awards outstanding under the 2015 Plan as of the date the 2025 Plan became effective will remain outstanding under the 2015 Plan in accordance with their existing terms.
Under the 2025 Plan, shares of the Company's Class A common stock are reserved for the issuance of incentive and nonstatutory stock options (ISOs and NSOs, respectively), stock appreciation rights ("SARs"), restricted stock awards, restricted stock units ("RSUs"), performance awards, and other stock and cash-based awards to eligible employees, directors, and consultants. The awards must be granted at a price per share not less than the fair market value at the date of grant. A maximum aggregate of 80,000,000 shares were reserved for issuance pursuant to awards under the 2025 Plan. As of September 30, 2025, there were 127.6 million shares outstanding under the 2015 Plan and 77.9 million shares available for future issuance under our 2025 Plan.

NOTE 15 - NET INCOME PER SHARE
The Company computes net income (loss) per share attributable to our common stockholders using the two-class method required for multiple classes of common stock and participating securities. The holders of our Class A and Class B common stock (together, "common stock") have identical liquidation and dividend rights but different voting rights. Accordingly, we present net income (loss) per share for Class A and Class B common stock together.
Basic net income (loss) per share is computed by dividing the net income (loss) by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted net income (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding adjusted for the dilutive effect of all potential shares of common stock. In periods when the Company reported a net loss, diluted net loss per share is the same as basic net loss per share because the effects of potentially dilutive items were anti-dilutive.

NOTE 16 - RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
In July 2019, the Company entered into a lease agreement for office space in St. Louis, Missouri, from an affiliate of one of the Company’s co-founders and current member of its board of directors, Mr. Jim McKelvey, for a term of 15.5 years, with options to extend the lease term for two five-year terms. The lease possession date varied by floor, beginning in May 2020. As of September 30, 2025, the Company had recorded right-of-use assets of $ 9.9 million and associated lease liabilities of $ 15.0 million related to this lease arrangement.
Under the lease agreement, the Company has an option to terminate the lease for the entire property on January 1, 2034. Termination penalties specified in the lease agreement will apply if the Company exercises the option to terminate the lease.

NOTE 17 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Litigation and Regulatory Matters
The Company is currently subject to, and may in the future be involved in, various litigation matters, legal claims, investigations, and regulatory proceedings.
The Company received subpoenas from Attorneys General from multiple states, seeking the production of information related to, among other things, Cash App’s handling of customer complaints and disputes. In June 2024, the state Attorneys General presented the Company with the results of their investigations. In December 2024, the state Attorneys General presented the Company with potential terms for resolving this matter and the Company is engaging in conversations with the state Attorneys General to resolve this matter on acceptable terms. The Company is unable to predict the likely outcome of this matter, which may include one or more public orders, and cannot provide any assurance that the state Attorneys General will not ultimately take legal action against the Company or that the outcome of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on the Company. It is probable that the Company will incur a loss in connection with this matter, and the loss could be material; however, the Company cannot estimate the amount of reasonably possible loss or range of loss at this time.
The Company also received inquiries from the SEC and Department of Justice (“DOJ”) shortly after the publication of a short seller report in March 2023. In July 2024, the Company received a follow-on inquiry from the SEC. The Company believes these inquiries primarily relate to the allegations raised in the short seller report, the Company’s compliance and risk practices, and related disclosures. The Company continues to cooperate with both agencies. The Company is unable to predict the likely outcome of these matters and cannot provide any assurance that the SEC or DOJ will not ultimately take legal action against the Company or that the outcome of any such action, if brought, will not have a material adverse effect on the Company.
In June 2024, the Office of the Treasurer and Tax Collector of the City and County of San Francisco (the "Tax Collector") finalized its audit and issued an assessment of San Francisco’s gross receipts tax, including interest and penalties, following its gross receipt tax audit for fiscal years 2020, 2021 and 2022. The Tax Collector has asserted that incremental taxes are owed on a portion of the receipts generated by the Company related to sales of bitcoin. The Company strongly disagrees with the Tax Collector’s assessment and plans to vigorously pursue all available remedies. In January 2025, the Tax Collector rejected the Company’s request for redetermination, and the Company paid the assessed amount of $ 71.4 million. Given the assessed amount must be paid to initiate the dispute process and will be returned in full or used to settle any final amount due to the Tax Collector, the Company views the amount as a deposit asset. In May of 2025, the Tax Collector notified the Company that it had initiated a gross receipt tax audit for fiscal years 2023 and 2024. In June 2025, the Company filed a claim for refund for fiscal years 2020, 2021 and 2022. In September 2025, the Company received a Notice of Deficiency from the Tax Collector for fiscal years 2023 and 2024 reflecting an assessment of $ 42.7 million, including tax, penalties and interest, which the Company paid in October 2025. Similar to the amount paid in January 2025, the Company also views this amount as a deposit asset. In October 2025, the Company submitted a request for redetermination for fiscal years 2023 and 2024. The Tax Collector may also challenge the Company’s gross receipts tax position going forward. The Company estimates that it could incur losses associated with taxes, interest, and penalties up to $ 114 million in the aggregate for the fiscal years 2020 through 2024. Given the Company has currently concluded that a loss for this matter is not probable, the Company has not recorded a liability for the exposure related to the dispute with the Tax Collector on San Francisco’s gross receipts tax.
The Company regularly assesses the likelihood of adverse outcomes resulting from litigation and regulatory proceedings and adjusts the financial statements based on such assessments. The eventual outcome of these matters may differ materially from the estimates the Company has currently accrued in the financial statements.
In addition, the Company is subject to various legal matters, investigations, subpoenas, inquiries, audits, claims, lawsuits and disputes, including with regulatory bodies and governmental agencies. The Company cannot at this time fairly estimate a reasonable range of exposure, if any, of the potential liability, if any, with respect to any of these other matters. Although the Company may be subject to an adverse decision or settlement, it does not believe that the final disposition of any of these other matters will have a material adverse effect on its results of operations, financial position, or liquidity. However, the Company cannot give any assurance regarding the ultimate outcome of any of these matters, and their resolution could be material to the Company's operating results.

Purchase Commitments
From time to time, we may enter into non-cancelable purchase obligations related to cloud computing infrastructure. The commitment amounts in the table below are associated with contracts that are enforceable and legally binding and that specify all significant terms, including fixed or minimum services to be used, and the approximate timing of the actions under the contracts.
As of September 30, 2025, the future minimum payments under the purchase commitments were as follows (in thousands):
Payments Due By Period
Remainder of 2025 $ 64,915
2026 263,300
2027 315,100
Total $ 643,315
Other Contingencies
The Company is under examination, or may be subject to examination, by several tax authorities. These examinations may lead to proposed adjustments to the Company's taxes or net operating losses with respect to years under examination, as well as subsequent periods. The Company regularly assesses the likelihood of adverse outcomes resulting from tax examinations to determine the adequacy of the Company's provision for direct and indirect taxes. The Company continues to monitor the progress of ongoing discussions with tax authorities and the effect, if any, on the Company's provision for direct and indirect taxes.
Management believes that an adequate provision has been made for any adjustments that may result from tax examinations. However, the outcome of tax audits cannot be predicted with certainty. If any issues addressed in the Company's tax audits are resolved in a manner not consistent with the Company’s expectations, the Company could be required to adjust the Company's provision for direct and indirect taxes in the period such resolution occurs.
NOTE 18 - SEGMENT AND GEOGRAPHICAL INFORMATION
The Company reports its segments to reflect the manner in which the Company's chief operating decision maker ("CODM") reviews and assesses performance. The Company's CODM is the Block Head and Chairperson. The Company has two reportable segments, Square and Cash App. Products and services that are not assigned to a specific reportable segment, including but not limited to TIDAL and other emerging ecosystems, are aggregated and presented within a general corporate and other category. Square and Cash App are defined as follows:
• Cash App includes the financial tools available to individuals within the mobile Cash App, including peer-to-peer payments, bitcoin and stock investments. Cash App also includes Cash App Card which is linked to customer stored balances that customers can use to pay for purchases or withdraw funds from an ATM, as well as Cash App Borrow, which is a credit product that allows eligible customers to access short-term loans for a small fee. Cash App also includes the BNPL platform.
• Square includes managed payment services, software solutions, hardware, and financial services offered to sellers, excluding those that involve Cash App.
The primary financial measures used by the CODM to evaluate performance and allocate resources are revenue and gross profit. The CODM uses segment gross profit for each segment during the annual budgeting and forecasting process. Further, the CODM uses gross profit as the metric to guide the business trajectory and to consider the overall gross profit growth by segment on a quarterly basis, when making decisions about the allocation of operating and capital resources to each segment. The CODM does not evaluate performance or allocate resources based on segment asset data, and therefore such information is not included.
