"Our third quarter results came in modestly ahead of our expectations, driven by moderate outperformance in several of our operating divisions and effective cost control across the company. On a year-over-year basis, adjusted EBITDA was up 9% in the quarter and is up 6% year-to-date," said Jess Unruh, Chief Financial Officer of Green Dot. "We continue making selective investments to position the company for continued growth while building on the momentum and success from prior investments in our platforms. Additionally, we continue focusing on driving efficiency across the platform, which contributed to non-volume related expenses being down modestly compared to last year.”
Proposed Transactions with CommerceOne Financial Corporation and Smith Ventures, LLC
On November 24, 2025, Green Dot announced that it entered into agreements to be acquired by affiliates of Smith Ventures, LLC (“Smith Ventures”) and CommerceOne Financial Corporation (“CommerceOne”). Upon closing of these proposed transactions, Smith Ventures will acquire and privatize Green Dot’s non-bank financial technology business assets and operations (the “FinTech business”), which will continue running as an independent and growth-focused fintech and embedded finance company. Additionally, upon closing of these proposed transactions, CommerceOne will acquire Green Dot Bank and its associated assets and operations, and the combined organization will serve as the FinTech business’s exclusive sponsor bank.
The completion of the transactions remains subject to the receipt of required regulatory approvals from the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, the Alabama State Banking Department and the Utah Department of Financial Institutions and the satisfaction of other customary closing conditions, and are expected to be completed by the first quarter of 2027. The company announced today that it will hold its Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the "2026 Annual Meeting") on Monday, December 21, 2026. Green Dot’s Board of Directors has called the 2026 Annual Meeting in order to comply with NYSE continued listing standards and Delaware law in the event that it subsequently determines that the transactions will not be completed before December 31, 2026. If the regulatory approvals required for the completion of the transactions are received prior to December 21, 2026, the 2026 Annual Meeting will not be held.
As a result of Green Dot’s proposed transactions with CommerceOne and Smith Ventures, Green Dot will not be hosting an earnings conference call nor providing 2026 financial guidance in conjunction with this earnings release. For further detail and discussion of Green Dot’s financial performance, please refer to the additional materials made available in the Investor Relations section of Green Dot's website at http://ir.greendot.com/ and Green Dot’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, as amended.
Discussion of Segment Results
On a consolidated basis, total operating revenues were $596.4 million for the third quarter of 2026, compared with $491.9 million in the prior-year period, an increase of 21%. Adjusted EBITDA was $25.8 million, compared with $23.6 million in the prior-year period, an increase of 9%. The increase reflects higher earnings in the BaaS business. On a year-to-date basis, adjusted EBITDA was $168.4 million, up 6% year-over-year, driven by strong growth in the tax processing business, continued growth in BaaS and improved returns from ongoing optimization of the balance sheet.
Over the last several years, Green Dot has made strategic investments to strengthen its foundation for sustainable growth, and it is beginning to see those efforts pay off in meaningful ways, particularly in the tax and BaaS businesses, and as Green Dot launches new partners and helps existing partners grow. Investments to enhance Green Dot’s platform and improve enterprise operations are intended to position the FinTech business, composed of its Consumer, B2B and Money Movement businesses and related operations, to be a growth-enabled organization following the proposed acquisition by Smith Ventures, and as a valuable partner to Green Dot Bank and CommerceOne for years to come.
Over the last year, Green Dot added new partnerships across its B2B, Money Movement and Consumer segments. Green Dot continues to maintain a strong pipeline of prospective partners that continues to present substantial growth opportunities via fee-based transaction revenues and through deposits that are strategically invested in high-quality, interest-bearing assets. Optimizing balance sheet profitability has remained an area of focus, and progress in this area is reflected in its year-to-date results. Green Dot sees additional opportunities to continue strengthening its earnings profile and balance sheet as it enhances its investment mix and grows deposits from its embedded finance offerings, particularly in its BaaS business.
As revenue momentum improved, Green Dot continued making progress in its multi-year efforts to strengthen its operating and regulatory infrastructures and drive improved efficiency. The team remains focused on strengthening its technology platform and simplifying its operations to make Green Dot a more innovative, nimble platform and partner. Green Dot also remains committed to investing in its regulatory infrastructure and believes it is seeing the benefits of that work materialize in its pipelines as prospective partners prioritize compliance and regulatory support when selecting a platform partner.
B2B Services Segment
Green Dot’s B2B Services segment includes its BaaS division, powered by ARC, its end-to-end embedded finance platform, and its rapid! employer services business. Revenue growth continues to be led by a significant BaaS partner, along with growth across the broader BaaS portfolio. The rest of Green Dot’s BaaS channel, excluding a significant partner, continued to see revenue growth and modest margin expansion. Active accounts in the BaaS channel continue to increase as Green Dot works with new and existing partners to launch products and drive engagement. Green Dot expects its pipeline of launches and other opportunities to support continued revenue and deposit growth.
In employer services (rapid!), Green Dot is repositioning the business by aligning the sales force, improving efficiency, lowering expenses, and focusing more on Earned Wage Access (“EWA”), where Green Dot sees meaningful growth potential. On a sequential basis, actives in the pay card business have now posted two consecutive quarters of growth while purchase volume recorded its first positive quarter of year-over-year growth in over three years. Green Dot believes that this points to initial success in the company’s efforts to re-position its pay card salesforce and improve the client experience. Green Dot has reinvested some cost savings into EWA capabilities, sales support, and integrations with new payroll platforms to pursue additional opportunities. Green Dot remains optimistic about EWA given the sizable market, strong demand and attractive margins.
Overall, B2B segment profit grew year over year, driven by higher demand and activity in BaaS. BaaS margins declined modestly due to its revenue mix, particularly the growth of a significant partner. Margins in Green Dot’s rapid! employer services division declined from the prior year period, primarily due to declines in revenue.
Money Movement Services Segment
Green Dot’s Money Movement Services segment includes its tax processing and money processing businesses. Revenue was down slightly due to modest declines in both tax and money processing. Despite the decline in the third quarter, year to date revenue in the tax business is up almost 17%, driven by market share gains and the launch of a significant new franchise partner. Green Dot has invested in its tax operations over time to strengthen its position as a technology and service leader, and the successful launch of this new partner reinforces that. The team has also expanded product availability, especially taxpayer advance programs, which continue to see strong momentum and customer adoption.
Green Dot’s money processing business experienced a slight decline as a solid increase in third-party transactions did not fully offset revenue headwinds associated with the softness in the Consumer segment’s active base. After a year of declines in its third-party transactions due to the loss of two low-margin customers for its third-party business, growth in third-party transactions accelerated modestly and reflects the health of the remaining partner base and continued success in adding partners that value the breadth and convenience of its network.
With money processing and BaaS operations more closely aligned, Green Dot expects to maintain a healthy pipeline of potential partners. Combined with recent cash transfer and digital disbursement launches, a solid schedule of upcoming launches, and moderating declines in the Consumer segment, Green Dot believes the business is well positioned to improve momentum from prior quarters.
Margins in Money Movement Services were affected by revenue declines and profit mix. Both money processing and tax margins were down from last year due to modest declines in revenue last year, particularly tax on a seasonal basis. As well, a higher percentage of earnings this quarter came from the money processing business which has lower margins than the tax business.
Consumer Services Segment
The Consumer Services segment continued to face headwinds in retail and from lower marketing spend in its direct business. However, despite pressure on actives and revenue, key metrics such as volume and revenue per active continued to grow in the quarter as a result of improved consumer engagement driving higher spend per active as well as utilization of features such as overdraft.
Green Dot’s retail channel continues to face pressure as consumers shift to digital banking apps instead of purchasing cards at retail locations. Green Dot has reduced some of that pressure by focusing on Financial Service Centers (“FSCs”), including the mid-2024 launch of PLS Financial Services, which helped moderate declines in actives and revenue. With FSC partners, Green Dot is introducing digital and embedded solutions that align more closely with its BaaS offerings and support deeper customer relationships. Green Dot is launching several new FSC partners in 2026 that it expects to further offset traditional retail headwinds.
Green Dot is also seeing an increased interest from traditional retail partners in digital and embedded solutions, which Green Dot believes can improve engagement and activity across the retail customer base. As well, Green Dot continues to see improvement in engagement, particularly in its overdraft product, which has helped offset the secular headwinds.
The decline in direct channel revenue was largely driven by declines in active accounts as Green Dot pulled back its marketing in the last two years and focused on returns while investing to modernize the user experience and add new features. Green Dot is nearing the completion of the first phase of this modernization and believes the improved user experience, added functionality, and a more consistent marketing cadence can position the business to return to growth.
Segment profit and margins declined year-over-year due to lower revenue and revenue mix.
Corporate and Other Segment
Corporate and Other segment revenue, consisting primarily of interest income net of partner interest sharing, experienced solid growth year over year. Rate cuts over the past couple of years improved the spread between what Green Dot earns on cash and investments and what it shares with partners. Green Dot also continued to optimize its balance sheet by repositioning part of the securities portfolio and investing more cash in high-grade, floating-rate securities with higher yields. Corporate expenses decreased modestly as on-going selective investments in areas such as compliance and risk management were offset by strict cost controls throughout the company. Corporate expenses as percentage of revenue continued to decline year over year.

* Total segment profit is also referred to herein as adjusted EBITDA in its non-GAAP measures. Additional information about Green Dot's non-GAAP financial measures can be found under the caption “About Non-GAAP Financial Measures."
Green Dot's segment reporting is based on how its Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) manages its businesses, including resource allocation and performance assessment. Its CODM (who is the Chief Executive Officer) organizes and manages the businesses primarily on the basis of the channels in which its products and services are offered and uses net revenue and segment profit to assess profitability. Segment profit reflects each segment's net revenue less direct costs, such as sales and marketing expenses, processing expenses, transaction losses and fraud management, and customer support and related expenses. Green Dot’s operations are aggregated amongst three reportable segments: 1) Business to Business ("B2B") Services, 2) Consumer Services and 3) Money Movement Services.
The Corporate and Other segment primarily consists of net interest income, certain other investment income earned by Green Dot's bank, interest profit sharing arrangements with certain BaaS partners (a reduction of revenue), eliminations of inter-segment revenues and expenses, and unallocated corporate expenses, which include Green Dot's fixed expenses, such as salaries, wages and related benefits for its employees and certain third-party contractors, professional services fees, software licenses, telephone and communication costs, rent, utilities, and insurance that are not considered when Green Dot's CODM evaluates segment performance. Non-cash expenses such as stock-based compensation, depreciation and amortization of long-lived assets, impairment charges and other non-recurring expenses that are not considered by Green Dot's CODM when it is evaluating overall consolidated financial results are excluded from its unallocated corporate expenses.

(1)To supplement Green Dot’s consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with GAAP, Green Dot uses measures of operating results that are adjusted to exclude various, primarily non-cash, expenses and charges. These financial measures are not calculated or presented in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered as alternatives to or substitutes for operating revenues, operating income, net income or any other measure of financial performance calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. These financial measures may not be comparable to similarly-titled measures of other organizations because other organizations may not calculate their measures in the same manner as Green Dot does. These financial measures are adjusted to eliminate the impact of items that Green Dot does not consider indicative of its core operating performance. You are encouraged to evaluate these adjustments and the reasons Green Dot considers them appropriate.
Green Dot believes that the non-GAAP financial measures it presents are useful to investors in evaluating Green Dot’s operating performance for the following reasons:
- adjusted EBITDA is widely used by investors to measure a company’s operating performance without regard to items, such as non-operating net interest income and expense, income tax benefit and expense, depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation and related employer payroll taxes, changes in the fair value of contingent consideration, transaction costs, impairment charges, extraordinary severance expenses, restructuring and other charges, certain legal settlement and related expenses, earnings or losses from equity method investments, changes in the fair value of loans held for sale, realized gains and losses on available-for-sale investment securities, and other charges and income that can vary substantially from company to company depending upon their respective financing structures and accounting policies, the book values of their assets, their capital structures and the methods by which their assets were acquired;
- securities analysts use adjusted EBITDA as a supplemental measure to evaluate the overall operating performance of companies; and
- Green Dot records stock-based compensation from period to period, and recorded stock-based compensation expenses and related employer payroll taxes, net of forfeitures, of approximately $2.6 million and $5.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively. By comparing Green Dot’s adjusted EBITDA, non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP diluted earnings per share in different historical periods, investors can evaluate Green Dot’s operating results without the additional variations caused by stock-based compensation expense and related employer payroll taxes, which may not be comparable from period to period due to changes in the fair market value of Green Dot’s Class A common stock (which is influenced by external factors like the volatility of the public markets and the financial performance of Green Dot’s peers) and is not a key measure of Green Dot’s operations.
Green Dot’s management uses the non-GAAP financial measures:
- as measures of operating performance, because they exclude the impact of items not directly resulting from Green Dot’s core operations;
- for planning purposes, including the preparation of Green Dot’s annual operating budget;
- to allocate resources to enhance the financial performance of Green Dot’s business;
- to evaluate the effectiveness of Green Dot’s business strategies;
- to establish metrics for variable compensation; and
- in communications with Green Dot’s board of directors concerning Green Dot’s financial performance.
Green Dot understands that, although adjusted EBITDA and other non-GAAP financial measures are frequently used by investors and securities analysts in their evaluations of companies, these measures have limitations as an analytical tool, and you should not consider them in isolation or as substitutes for an analysis of Green Dot’s results of operations as reported under GAAP. Some of these limitations are:
- that these measures do not reflect Green Dot’s capital expenditures or future requirements for capital expenditures or other contractual commitments;
- that these measures do not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, Green Dot’s working capital needs;
- that these measures do not reflect non-operating interest expense or interest income;
- that these measures do not reflect cash requirements for income taxes;
- that, although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated or amortized will often have to be replaced in the future, and these measures do not reflect any cash requirements for these replacements; and
- that other companies in Green Dot’s industry may calculate these measures differently than Green Dot does, limiting their usefulness as comparative measures.
(2)Green Dot does not include any income tax impact of the associated non-GAAP adjustment to adjusted EBITDA, as the case may be, because each of these adjustments to the non-GAAP financial measure is provided before income tax expense.
(3)This expense consists primarily of expenses for restricted stock units (including performance-based restricted stock units) and related employer payroll taxes. Stock-based compensation expense is not comparable from period to period due to changes in the fair market value of Green Dot’s Class A common stock (which is influenced by external factors like the volatility of public markets and the financial performance of Green Dot’s peers) and is not a key measure of Green Dot’s operations. Green Dot excludes stock-based compensation expense from its non-GAAP financial measures primarily because it consists of non-cash expenses that Green Dot does not believe are reflective of ongoing operating results. Green Dot also believes that it is not useful to investors to understand the impact of stock-based compensation on its results of operations. Further, the related employer payroll taxes are dependent upon volatility in Green Dot's stock price, as well as the timing and size of option exercises and vesting of restricted stock units, over which Green Dot has limited to no control. This expense is included as a component of compensation and benefits expenses on Green Dot's consolidated statements of operations.
(4)Green Dot excludes certain expenses that are the result of acquisition or divestiture activities, including a sale in connection with its evaluation of strategic alternatives. These acquisition-related adjustments include items such as transaction costs, the amortization of acquired intangible assets, changes in the fair value of contingent consideration, settlements of contingencies established at time of acquisition and other acquisition related charges, such as integration charges and professional and legal fees, which result in Green Dot recording expenses or fair value adjustments in its GAAP financial statements. Green Dot may also from time to time incur gains or losses from divestitures of a business or other sale activities, as well as professional and legal fees and other direct expenses associated with such transactions. Green Dot analyzes the performance of its operations without regard to these adjustments. In determining whether any acquisition-related adjustment is appropriate, Green Dot takes into consideration, among other things, how such adjustments would or would not aid in the understanding of the performance of its operations. These items are included as a component of other general and administrative expenses on Green Dot's consolidated statements of operations, as applicable for the periods presented.
(5)Green Dot excludes certain income and expenses that are not reflective of ongoing operating results. It is difficult to estimate the amount or timing of these items in advance. Although these events are reflected in Green Dot's GAAP financial statements, Green Dot excludes them in its non-GAAP financial measures because Green Dot believes these items may limit the comparability of ongoing operations with prior and future periods. These adjustments include items such as amortization attributable to deferred financing costs, impairment charges related to long-lived assets, earnings or losses from equity method investments, legal settlements and related expenses, changes in the fair value of loans held for sale, realized gains and losses on available-for-sale investment securities and other income and expenses, as applicable for the periods presented. In determining whether any such adjustment is appropriate, Green Dot takes into consideration, among other things, how such adjustments would or would not aid in the understanding of the performance of its operations. Each of these adjustments, except for amortization of deferred financing costs, earnings and losses from equity method investments, fair value changes on loans held for sale, and realized gains and losses on available-for-sale investment securities, which are all included below operating income, are included within other general and administrative expenses on Green Dot's consolidated statements of operations.
(6)Green Dot has incurred charges related to extraordinary severance expenses, which were paid out in connection with extraordinary involuntary terminations of employment. Although severance expenses may arise throughout the fiscal year, Green Dot believes the nature of these extraordinary costs are not indicative of its core operating performance. This expense is included as a component of compensation and benefits expenses on Green Dot's consolidated statements of operations.
(7)During the three months ended September 30, 2026, Green Dot recorded $0.1 million for restructuring and other charges related specifically to the closure of its China operations. Green Dot excludes restructuring and other charges primarily because these costs are not reflective of ongoing operating results, nor are considered normal, recurring cash operating expenses.
(8)Represents the tax effect for the related non-GAAP measure adjustments using Green Dot's year to date non-GAAP effective tax rate. It also excludes the impact of excess tax benefits related to stock-based compensation, the IRC §162(m) limitation that applies to performance-based restricted stock units expense, and valuation allowances related to deferred tax assets as of September 30, 2026.
(9)Represents commissions and certain processing-related costs associated with embedded finance products and services where Green Dot does not control customer acquisition. This adjustment is netted against revenues when evaluating segment performance.
(10)Represents other non-interest investment income earned by Green Dot Bank. This amount is included along with operating interest income in Green Dot's Corporate and Other segment since the yield earned on these investments is generated on a recurring basis and earned similarly to its investment securities available-for-sale.
