COMPANY OVERVIEW
We are a leading technology and analytics company focused on providing online financial services. In 2021, we extended approximately$3.1 billion in credit or financing to borrowers and for the six months endedJune 30, 2022 , we extended approximately$2.1 billion in credit or financing to borrowers. As ofJune 30, 2022 , we offered or arranged loans or draws on lines of credit to consumers in 37 states inthe United States andBrazil . We also offered financing to small businesses in all 50 states andWashington D.C. inthe United States . We use our proprietary technology, analytics and customer service capabilities to quickly evaluate, underwrite and fund loans or provide financing, allowing us to offer consumers and small businesses credit or financing when and how they want it. Our customers include the large and growing number of consumers who and small businesses which have bank accounts but use alternative financial services because of their limited access to more traditional credit from banks, credit card companies and other lenders. We were an early entrant into online lending, launching our online business in 2004, and throughJune 30, 2022 , we have completed approximately 56.6 million customer transactions and collected more than 61 terabytes of currently accessible customer behavior data since launch, allowing us to better analyze and underwrite our specific customer base. We have significantly diversified our business over the past several years having expanded the markets we serve and the financing products we offer. These financing products include installment loans and receivables purchase agreements ("RPAs") and line of credit accounts. We believe our customers highly value our products and services as an important component of their personal or business finances because our products are convenient, quick and often less expensive than other available alternatives. We attribute the success of our business to our advanced and innovative technology systems, the proprietary analytical models we use to predict the performance of loans and finance receivables, our sophisticated customer acquisition programs, our dedication to customer service and our talented employees. We have developed proprietary underwriting systems based on data we have collected over our more than 18 years of experience. These systems employ advanced risk analytics, including machine learning and artificial intelligence, to decide whether to approve financing transactions, to structure the amount and terms of the financings we offer pursuant to jurisdiction-specific regulations and to provide customers with their funds quickly and efficiently. Our systems closely monitor collection and portfolio performance data that we use to continually refine machine learning-enabled analytical models and statistical measures used in making our credit, purchase, marketing and collection decisions. Approximately 90% of models used in our analytical environment are machine learning-enabled. Our flexible and scalable technology platform allows us to process and complete customers' transactions quickly and efficiently. In 2021, we processed approximately 2.2 million transactions, and we continue to grow our loans and finance receivable portfolios and increase the number of customers we serve through desktop, tablet and mobile platforms. Our highly customizable technology platform allows us to efficiently develop and deploy new products to adapt to evolving regulatory requirements and consumer preference, and to enter new markets quickly. In 2012, we launched a new product inthe United States designed to serve near-prime customers. InJune 2014 , we launched our business inBrazil , where we arrange financing for borrowers through a third-party lender. In addition, inJuly 2014 , we introduced a new line of credit product inthe United States to serve the needs of small businesses. InJune 2015 , we further expanded our product offering by acquiring certain assets of a company that provides financing and installment loans to small businesses by offering RPAs. InOctober 2020 , we acquired, through a merger,On Deck Capital Inc. ("OnDeck"), a small business lending company offering lending and funding solutions to small businesses in theU.S. ,Australia andCanada , to expand our small business offerings. InMarch 2021 , we acquiredPangea Universal Holdings ("Pangea"), which provides mobile international money transfer services to customers in theU.S with a focus onLatin America andAsia . These new products have allowed us to further diversify our product offerings and customer base. We have been able to consistently acquire new customers and successfully generate repeat business from returning customers when they need financing. We believe our customers are loyal to us because they are satisfied with our products and services. We acquire new customers from a variety of sources, including visits to our own websites, mobile sites or applications, and through direct marketing, 21 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- affiliate marketing, lead providers and relationships with other lenders. We believe that the online convenience of our products and our 24/7 availability to accept applications with quick approval decisions are important to our customers. Once a potential customer submits an application, we quickly provide a credit or purchase decision. If a loan or financing is approved, we or our lending partner typically fund the loan or financing the next business day or, in some cases, the same day. During the entire process, from application through payment, we provide access to our well-trained customer service team. All of our operations, from customer acquisition through collections, are structured to build customer satisfaction and loyalty, in the event that a customer has a need for our products in the future. We have developed a series of sophisticated proprietary scoring models to support our various products. We believe that these models are an integral component of our operations and allow us to complete a high volume of customer transactions while actively managing risk and the related credit quality of our loan and finance receivable portfolios. We believe our successful application of these technological innovations differentiates our capabilities relative to competing platforms as evidenced by our history of strong growth and stable credit quality. PRODUCTS AND SERVICES Our online financing products and services provide customers with a deposit of funds to their bank account in exchange for a commitment to repay the amount deposited plus fees, interest and/or revenue on the receivables purchased. We originate, arrange, guarantee or purchase installment loans, line of credit accounts and receivables purchase agreements ("RPAs") to consumers and small businesses. We have one reportable segment that includes all of our online financial services.
•
Installment loans. Installment loans include longer-term loans that require the outstanding principal balance to be paid down in multiple installments and shorter-term single payment loans. Our installment loans are either written directly by us, purchased as part of our Banking Programs as discussed below, or are those that we arrange and guarantee as part of our credit services organization and credit access business programs, which we refer to as our CSO programs. We offer, or arrange through CSO programs, multi- or single-payment unsecured consumer loan products in 38 states inthe United States and small business installment loans in 47 states and inWashington D.C. Internationally, we also offer or arrange multi-payment unsecured consumer installment loan products inBrazil . Terms for our installment loan products range between two and 60 months, and single-pay consumer loans generally have terms of seven to 90 days. Loans may be repaid early at any time with no additional prepayment charges.
•
Line of credit accounts. We directly offer, or purchase a participation interest in receivables through our Bank Programs, new consumer line of credit accounts in 30 states (and continue to service existing line of credit accounts in two additional states) inthe United States and business line of credit accounts in 47 states and inWashington D.C. inthe United States , which allow customers to draw on their unsecured line of credit in increments of their choosing up to their credit limit. Customers may pay off their account balance in full at any time or make required minimum payments in accordance with the terms of the line of credit account. As long as the customer's account is in good standing and has credit available, customers may continue to borrow on their line of credit.
•
Receivables purchase agreements. Under RPAs, small businesses receive funds in exchange for a portion of the business's future receivables at an agreed upon discount. In contrast, lending is a commitment to repay principal and interest and/or fees. A small business customer who enters into an RPA commits to delivering a percentage of its receivables through ACH or wire debits or by splitting credit card receipts until all purchased receivables are delivered. We offer RPAs in all 50 states and inWashington D.C. inthe United States .
•
CSO programs. We currently operate a CSO program inTexas . Through CSO programs, we provide services related to third-party lenders' multi- and single-pay installment consumer loan products by acting as a credit services organization or credit access business on behalf of consumers in accordance with applicable state laws. Services offered under our CSO program include credit-related services such as arranging loans with independent third-party lenders and assisting in the preparation of loan applications and loan documents ("CSO loans"). When a consumer executes an agreement with us under our CSO program, we agree, for a fee payable to us by the consumer, to provide certain services, one of which is to guarantee the consumer's obligation to repay the loan received by the consumer from the third-party lender if the consumer fails to do so. For CSO loans, each lender is responsible for providing the criteria by which the consumer's application is underwritten and, if approved, determining the amount of the consumer loan. We, in turn, are responsible for assessing whether or not we will guarantee such loan. The guarantee represents an obligation to purchase specific single-payment loans, which for our CSO program, have terms of less than 90 days, and specific installment loans, which have terms of up to six months, if they go into default.
•
Bank program. We operate programs with certain banks to provide marketing services and loan servicing for near-prime unsecured consumer installment loans and, beginning inJanuary 2021 , line of credit accounts. Under the programs, we receive marketing and servicing fees while the bank receives an origination fee. The bank has the ability to sell and we have the option, but not the requirement, to purchase the loans the bank originates and, in the case of line of credit accounts, a participation interest in the receivables from draws on those accounts. We do not guarantee the performance of the loans and line of credit accounts originated by the bank. As part of the OnDeck business both prior and subsequent to Enova's acquisition, OnDeck operates a 22 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- program with a separate bank to provide marketing services and loan servicing for small business installment loans and line of credit accounts. Under the OnDeck program, we receive marketing fees while the bank receives origination fees and certain program fees. The bank has the ability to sell and we have the option, but not the requirement, to purchase the installment loans the bank originates and, in the case of line of credit accounts, extensions under those line of credit accounts. We do not guarantee the performance of the loans or line of credit accounts originated by the bank.
•
Money transfer business. Through the acquisition of Pangea, we operate a money transfer platform that allows customers to send money fromthe United States toMexico , other Latin American countries andAsia . The customer pays us inU.S. dollars, and we then make local currency available to the intended recipient of the transfer in one of many termination countries. Our revenue model includes a fee per transfer and an exchange rate spread. Our customers can access our proprietary platform via the website, Android app, or iOS (Apple) app.

RECENT REGULATORY DEVELOPMENTS
We received a Civil Investigative Demand ("CID") from the CFPB concerning
certain loan processing issues. We have been cooperating fully with the CFPB by
providing data and information in response to the CID. We anticipate being able
to expeditiously complete the investigation as several of the issues were
selfdisclosed and we have provided, and will continue to provide, restitution
to customers who may have been negatively impacted.
On October 6, 2017 , the CFPB issued its final rule entitled "Payday, Vehicle
Title, and Certain High-Cost Installment Loans" (the "Small Dollar Rule"), which
covers certain loans that we offer. The Small Dollar Rule requires that lenders
who make short-term loans and longer-term loans with balloon payments reasonably
determine consumers' ability to repay the loans according to their terms before
issuing the loans. The Small Dollar Rule also introduces new limitations on
repayment processes for those lenders as well as lenders of other longer-term
loans with an annual percentage rate greater than 36 percent that include an ACH
authorization or similar payment provision. If a consumer has two consecutive
failed payment attempts, the lender must obtain the consumer's new and specific
authorization to make further withdrawals from the consumer's bank account. For
loans covered by the Small Dollar Rule, lenders must provide certain notices to
consumers before attempting a first payment withdrawal or an unusual withdrawal
and after two consecutive failed withdrawal attempts. On June 7, 2019 , the CFPB
issued a final rule to set the compliance date for the mandatory underwriting
provisions of the Small Dollar Rule to November 19, 2020 . On July 7, 2020 , the
CFPB issued a final rule rescinding the ability to repay ("ATR") provisions of
the Small Dollar Rule along with related provisions, such as the establishment
of registered information systems for checking ATR and reporting loan activity.
The payment provisions of the Small Dollar Rule remain in place, but remain
stayed indefinitely by the United States Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit ,
which is hearing an appeal from the plaintiff on a constitutional challenge to
the Small Dollar Rule. On October 14, 2021 , the Fifth Circuit ruled that the
Small Dollar Rule will not take effect until 286 days after the Fifth Circuit
rules on the appeal. If the Small Dollar Rule does become effective in its
current proposed form, we will need to make certain changes to our payment
processes and customer notifications in our U.S. consumer lending business.
New Mexico HB 132
OnFebruary 15, 2022 , theNew Mexico Legislature passed HB 132. The bill imposes a 36% rate cap on loans up to$10,000 . Additionally, HB 132 provides for the application of a predominant economic interest test for bank service arrangements whereby a broker or servicer with a predominant economic interest in a loan is considered to be the "true lender" for purposes of applying the 36% rate cap. TheNew Mexico Governor signed the bill into law onMarch 1, 2022 . The law will take effect onJanuary 1, 2023 . 23 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Valuation of loans and financial receivables
The COVID-19 pandemic severely impacted global economic conditions, resulting in
substantial volatility in the financial markets, increased unemployment, and
operational challenges resulting from measures that governments have imposed to
control its spread. We actively worked with our customers to understand their
financial situations, waive late fees, offer a variety of repayment options to
increase flexibility and reduce or defer payments for impacted customers. We
took measures to adjust our underwriting procedures, which reduced exposure to
more heavily impacted consumers and businesses. Certain of these measures have
eased since the height of the pandemic, with improvement of economic conditions
and our outlook.
25
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
From a loan valuation perspective, at the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, we
deemed it appropriate to increase the discount rates used in our
internally-developed valuation models, thereby lowering loan fair values, to
capture the increase in potential volatility in expected cash flows due to the
unprecedented nature of the pandemic and governmental response. These rates
remained consistent for the remainder of 2020. Over the course of 2021, we noted
a tightening of credit spreads in observable pricing in the market; as such, we
reduced the discount rates used in our valuations. As of December 31, 2021 , our
discount rates had generally returned to the levels utilized immediately prior
to the pandemic. As of March 31, 2022 and June 30, 2022 , we increased our
discount rates based primarily on movements in the market during each period. We
believe the adjustments to our discount rates to be responsive to changes in the
market and representative of what a market participant would use.
After seeing increases in delinquency and charge-offs early in the pandemic, we
experienced significant improvements to these metrics over the remainder of 2020
and into 2021. The U.S. government provided multiple rounds of stimulus
assistance to taxpayers and businesses. Positive COVID-19 test counts in the
U.S. generally decreased across the first half of 2021 although have spiked at
numerous times in the past year as different variants escalate and abate. In
certain situations, management concluded that the probability of future
charge-offs was higher than what we had experienced in the past and, therefore,
increased anticipated charge-offs in our fair value models. We continue to
utilize this approach and have adjusted charge-off expectations where
appropriate. As of June 30, 2022 , we deemed the resulting fair value to be an
appropriate market-based exit price that considers current market conditions.
NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
In addition to the financial information prepared in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), we provide historical non-GAAP
financial information. We believe that presentation of non-GAAP financial
information is meaningful and useful in understanding the activities and
business metrics of our operations. We believe that these non-GAAP financial
measures reflect an additional way of viewing aspects of our business that, when
viewed with our GAAP results, provide a more complete understanding of factors
and trends affecting our business. Readers should consider the information in
addition to, but not instead of or superior to, our consolidated financial
statements prepared in accordance with GAAP. This non-GAAP financial information
may be determined or calculated differently by other companies, limiting the
usefulness of those measures for comparative purposes.
Adjusted earnings measures
In addition to reporting financial results in accordance with GAAP, we have
provided adjusted earnings and adjusted earnings per share, or, collectively,
the Adjusted Earnings Measures, which are non-GAAP measures. We believe that the
presentation of these measures provides investors with greater transparency and
facilitates comparison of operating results across a broad spectrum of companies
with varying capital structures, compensation strategies, derivative instruments
and amortization methods, which provides a more complete understanding of our
financial performance, competitive position and prospects for the future. We
also believe that investors regularly rely on non-GAAP financial measures, such
as the Adjusted Earnings Measures, to assess operating performance and that such
measures may highlight trends in our business that may not otherwise be apparent
when relying on financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. In
addition, we believe that the adjustments shown below are useful to investors in
order to allow them to compare our financial results during the periods shown
without the effect of each of these income or expense items.

first quarter of 2021, we recorded other nonoperating expenses of $0.4 million
($0.3 million net of tax) related to the repurchase of securitization notes.
Adjusted EBITDA
The table below shows Adjusted EBITDA, which is a non-GAAP measure that we
define as earnings excluding depreciation, amortization, interest, foreign
currency transaction gains or losses, taxes and stock-based compensation
expense. We believe Adjusted EBITDA is used by investors to analyze operating
performance and evaluate our ability to incur and service debt and our capacity
for making capital expenditures. Adjusted EBITDA is also useful to investors to
help assess our estimated enterprise value. In addition, we believe that the
adjustments for transaction-related costs, lease termination and cease-use loss
(gain), equity method investment income and other nonoperating expenses shown
below are useful to investors in order to allow them to compare our financial
results during the

Combined measures of loans and financial claims
In addition to reporting loans and finance receivables balance information in accordance with GAAP (see Note 3 in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in this report), we have provided metrics on a combined basis. The Combined Loans and Finance Receivables Measures are non-GAAP measures that include both loans and RPAs we own or have purchased and loans we guarantee, which are either GAAP items or disclosures required by GAAP. See "-Loan and Finance Receivable Balances" and "-Credit Performance of Loans and Finance Receivables" below for reconciliations between Company owned and purchased loans and finance receivables, gross, change in fair value and charge-offs (net of recoveries) calculated in accordance with GAAP to the Combined Loans and Finance Receivables Measures. We believe these non-GAAP measures provide investors with important information needed to evaluate the magnitude of potential receivable losses and the opportunity for revenue performance of the loans and finance receivable portfolio on an aggregate basis. We also believe that the comparison of the aggregate amounts from period to period is more meaningful than comparing only the amounts reflected on our consolidated balance sheet since both revenue and cost of revenue are impacted by the aggregate amount of receivables we own and those we guarantee as reflected in our consolidated financial statements.

Revenue increased$143.3 million , or 54.1%, to$408.0 million for the current quarter as compared to$264.7 million for the prior year quarter. The increase was driven by a 75.2% increase in revenue from our small business portfolio and a 45.0% increase in revenue from our consumer portfolio as higher levels of originations in 2021 and into 2022 have led to higher loan balances for both portfolios. Net revenue for the current quarter was$264.6 million compared to$259.1 million for the prior year quarter. Our consolidated net revenue margin was 64.8% for the current quarter compared to 97.9% for the prior year quarter. The net revenue margin in the prior year quarter was elevated due primarily to lower delinquency rates and lower than expected charge-offs as a result of portfolio seasoning and lower originations. With originations having increased across the second half of 2021 and throughJune 30, 2022 , the net revenue margin in the current quarter was in a more normalized range. 28 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The following table sets forth the components of revenue and net revenue, separated by product for the current quarter and the prior year quarter (in thousands): Three Months Ended June 30, 2022 2021 $ Change % Change Revenue by product: Consumer loans and finance receivables revenue$ 253,043 $ 174,512 $ 78,531 45.0 % Small business loans and finance receivables revenue 149,909 85,561 64,348 75.2 Total loans and finance receivables revenue 402,952 260,073 142,879 54.9 Other 5,038 4,647 391 8.4 Total revenue 407,990 264,720 143,270 54.1 Change in fair value (143,418 ) (5,587 ) (137,831 ) 2,467.0 Net revenue$ 264,572 $ 259,133 $ 5,439 2.1 % Revenue by product (% to total): Consumer loans and finance receivables revenue 62.0 % 65.9 % Small business loans and finance receivables revenue 36.8 32.3 Total loans and finance receivables revenue 98.8 98.2 Other 1.2 1.8 Total revenue 100.0 100.0 Change in fair value (35.2 ) (2.1 ) Net revenue 64.8 % 97.9 %
Loan and financing balances receivable
The fair value of our loan and finance receivable portfolio in our consolidated financial statements was$2,460.9 million and$1,408.7 million as ofJune 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The outstanding principal balance of our loan and finance receivables portfolio was$2,300.7 million and$1,366.9 million as ofJune 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The fair value of the combined loan and finance receivables portfolio includes$17.9 million and$10.8 million with an outstanding principal balance of$11.9 million and$8.3 million of consumer loan balances that are guaranteed by us but not owned by us, which are not included in our consolidated financial statements as ofJune 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Our small business portfolio of loans and finance receivables increased to 59.4% of our combined loan and finance receivable portfolio at fair value as ofJune 30, 2022 , compared to 55.3% as ofJune 30, 2021 due primarily to more accelerated growth in the small business portfolio. The consumer portfolio balance decreased to 40.6% of our combined loan and finance receivable portfolio balance at fair value as ofJune 30, 2022 , compared to 44.7% as ofJune 30, 2021 .

These ratios increased compared to the prior year due primarily to lower delinquency rates and lower than expected charge-offs in the small business portfolio, 29 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
partially offset by the impact of the acceleration of originations in the consumer portfolio, in particular towards new customers, who present a higher risk of imputation.
Average amount outstanding per loan and financing receivable
The average amount outstanding per loan and finance receivable is calculated as the total combined loans and finance receivables, gross balance at the end of the period divided by the total number of combined loans and finance receivables outstanding at the end of the period.

(c) For line of credit accounts the average represents the average amount of each incremental draw. The average loan and finance receivable origination amount increased to$1,638 from$1,409 during the current quarter compared to the prior year quarter, due primarily to an increase in the mix of higher dollar amount loans and finance receivables to small businesses.
Credit performance of financial loans and receivables
We monitor the performance of our loans and finance receivables. Internal
factors such as portfolio composition (e.g., interest rate, loan term, geography
information, customer mix, credit quality) and performance (e.g., delinquency,
loss trends, prepayment rates) are reviewed on a regular basis at various levels
(e.g., product, vintage). We also weigh the impact of relevant, internal
business decisions on the portfolio. External factors such as macroeconomic
trends, financial market liquidity expectations, competitive landscape and
legal/regulatory requirements are also reviewed on a regular basis.
The payment status of a customer, including the degree of any delinquency, is a
significant factor in determining estimated charge-offs in the cash flow models
that we use to determine fair value. The following table shows payment status on
outstanding principal, interest and fees as of the end of each of the last five

31
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
in 2021 and continuing in 2022 following the strategic reduction of originations at the start of the COVID-19 pandemic to mitigate the risks associated with the pandemic.
The percentage of loans greater than 30 days delinquent increased to 7.1% atJune 30, 2022 , compared to 4.1% atJune 30, 2021 . The increase was driven primarily by growth in originations in the current year, particularly to new customers, which typically default at a higher percentage than returning customers. Charge-offs (net of recoveries) as a percentage of average combined loan balance increased to 13.7% for the current quarter, compared to 4.6% for the prior year quarter, driven primarily by growth in originations, particularly to new customers, which typically default at a higher percentage than returning customers. In the prior year quarter, this charge-off rate was lower due primarily to our having a more seasoned and lower risk portfolio remaining as originations since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic had been significantly lower and the majority of higher risk loans to new customers originated in prior quarters had been charged off. The ratio of fair value as a percentage of principal on consumer loans and finance receivables was 106.2% atJune 30, 2022 , compared to 107.0% atJune 30, 2021 and 105.6% atMarch 31, 2022 . The increase fromMarch 31, 2022 was primarily driven by a slight decrease in past due loans.

The percentage of loans greater than 30 days delinquent was 3.6% atJune 30, 2022 , compared to 7.1% atJune 30, 2021 . Delinquency has improved in all of our small business portfolios, as we have actively worked with our customers to understand their financial situations, offering a variety of repayment options to increase flexibility and reducing or deferring payments for impacted customers. 32 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Charge-offs (net of recoveries) as a percentage of average loan balance increased to 2.2% for the current quarter, compared to 0.7% in the prior year quarter, due primarily to growth in originations, particularly to new customers, which typically default at a higher percentage than returning customers. In the prior year quarter, this charge-off rate was lower due primarily to our having a more seasoned portfolio remaining as originations since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic had been significantly lower and the majority of higher risk loans to new customers originated in prior quarters had been charged off. The ratio of fair value as a percentage of principal on small business loans and finance receivables was 107.9% atJune 30, 2022 , compared to 100.4% atJune 30, 2021 and 107.2% atMarch 31, 2022 . The increase fromMarch 31, 2022 was due primarily to strong credit metrics, including low charge-offs. The ratio of fair value as a percentage of principal has improved for the legacy Enova portfolio since the second quarter of 2020 and the OnDeck portfolio since acquisition.
Total operating expenses
Total expenses increased
Marketing expense increased to$91.5 million in the current quarter compared to$55.2 million in the prior year quarter due primarily to our efforts to capture increasing market demand for loan products in the current quarter. The prior year quarter was abnormally low due to our strategic actions to mitigate risks associated with the COVID-19 pandemic.
Operating and technology expenses increased to
General and administrative expense decreased to$33.7 million in the current quarter compared to$38.7 million in the prior year quarter, due primarily to synergies achieved following theOctober 2020 acquisition of OnDeck.
Depreciation expense remained relatively stable compared to the prior year quarter.
Nonoperating Items Interest expense, net increased$5.5 million , or 28.5%, to$24.9 million in the current quarter compared to$19.4 million in the prior year quarter. The increase was due primarily to an increase in the average amount of debt outstanding, which increased$783.3 million to$1,769.4 million during the current quarter from$986.1 million during the prior year quarter, partially offset by a decrease in the weighted average interest rate on our outstanding debt to 5.77% during the current quarter from 7.81% during the prior year quarter. Equity method investment income increased$4.8 million , or 329.8%, to$6.3 million in the current quarter compared to$1.5 million in the prior year quarter. In the current quarter, Linear sold its operating company, resulting in a gain of$11.0 million , which was partially offset by a$4.4 million loss on the sale of OnDeck Canada. Provision for Income Taxes The effective tax rate of 24.9% in the current quarter was higher than the 22.4% rate recorded in the prior year quarter due primarily to higher nondeductible executive compensation, along with the nondeductible loss on the sale of OnDeckCanada . As ofJune 30, 2022 , the balance of unrecognized tax benefits was$64.7 million which is included in "Accounts payable and accrued expenses" on the consolidated balance sheet,$10.4 million of which, if recognized, would favorably affect the effective tax rate in the period of recognition. We had$39.1 million and$44.1 million of unrecognized tax benefits as ofJune 30, 2021 andDecember 31, 2021 , respectively. We believe that we have adequately accounted for any material tax uncertainties in our existing reserves for all open tax years. OurU.S. tax returns are subject to examination by federal and state taxing authorities. The statute of limitations related to our consolidated Federal income tax returns is closed for all tax years up to and including 2017. However, the 2014 tax year is still open to the extent of the net operating loss that was carried back from the 2019 tax return. The years open to examination by state, local and foreign government authorities vary by jurisdiction, but the statute of limitation is generally three years from the date the tax return is filed. For jurisdictions that have generated net operating losses, carryovers may be subject to the statute of limitations applicable for the year those carryovers are utilized. In these cases, the period for which the losses may be adjusted will extend to conform with the statute of limitations for the year in which the losses are utilized. In most circumstances, this is expected to increase the length of time that the applicable taxing authority may examine the carryovers by one year or longer, in limited cases. 33 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Net revenue
Net income decreased$27.8 million , or 34.6%, to$52.4 million during the current quarter compared to$80.2 million during the prior year quarter. The decrease was due primarily to higher costs due to growth in the size of the business coupled with a lower, but more normalized net revenue margin in the current quarter.
SIX MONTHS ENDED
Turnover and net turnover
Revenue increased$269.5 million , or 51.4%, to$793.7 million for the six-month period endedJune 30, 2022 , or current six-month period, as compared to$524.2 million for the six-month period endedJune 30, 2021 , or prior year six-month period. The increase was driven by a 75.3% increase in revenue from our small business portfolio and a 40.8% increase in revenue from our consumer portfolio as higher levels of originations in 2021 and into 2022 have led to higher loan balances for both portfolios. Net revenue for the current six-month period was$533.2 million compared to$497.5 million for the prior year six-month period. Our consolidated net revenue margin was 67.2% for the current six-month period compared to 94.9% for the prior year six-month period. The net revenue margin in the prior year six-month period was elevated due primarily to lower delinquency rates and lower than expected charge-offs as a result of portfolio seasoning and lower originations. With originations having increased across the second half of 2021 and throughJune 30, 2022 , the net revenue margin in the current six-month period was in a more normalized range.

Marketing expense increased to$184.7 million in the current six-month period compared to$83.8 million in the prior year six-month period. The increase was due primarily to our efforts to capture increasing market demand for loan products in the current six-month period. The prior year six-month period was abnormally low due to our strategic actions to mitigate risks associated with the COVID-19 pandemic.
Operating and technology expenses increased to
General and administrative expense decreased$14.6 million , or 17.6%, to$68.2 million in the current six-month period compared to$82.8 million in the prior year six-month period, due primarily to synergies achieved following theOctober 2020 acquisition of OnDeck.
Depreciation and amortization increased
Non-operating items
Interest expense, net increased$8.1 million , or 20.6%, to$47.4 million in the current six-month period compared to$39.3 million in the prior year six-month period. The increase was due primarily to an increase of$700.4 million in the average amount of debt outstanding to$1,666.7 million during the current six-month period from$966.3 million during the prior year six-month period, partially offset by a decrease in the weighted average interest rate on our outstanding debt to 5.84% during the current six-month period from 8.20% during the prior year six-month period. Equity method investment income increased$4.7 million , or 227.8%, to$6.7 million in the current six-month period compared to$2.0 million in the prior year six-month period. In the current six-month period, Linear sold its operating company, resulting in a gain of$11.0 million , which was partially offset by a$4.4 million loss on the sale of OnDeck Canada.
Provision for income taxes
The effective tax rate of 24.1% in the current six-month period was lower than the effective tax rate of 24.6% in the prior year six-month period due primarily to stock-based compensation deductions that occurred at favorable fair market values. Net Income
Net profit decreased
CASH AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Capital funding strategy
Through the COVID-19 pandemic, we have taken various actions to maintain a stable and flexible balance sheet that ensures liquidity and funding available to meet our business obligations. As ofJune 30, 2022 , we had cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash of$213.8 million , of which$69.7 million was restricted, compared to$225.9 million , of which$60.4 million was restricted, as ofDecember 31, 2021 . During the three months endedMarch 31, 2022 , we increased the borrowing capacity on four of our loan securitization facilities without having to increase any of the respective borrowing rates. In lateJune 2022 , we entered into a new$420.0 million loan securitization facility and increased the aggregate principal on its existing secured revolving credit agreement while extending its term. As ofJune 30, 2022 , we had committed and undrawn funding capacity of$803.1 million . Based on numerous stressed-case modeling 35 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
scenarios, we believe we have sufficient liquidity to run our business for the foreseeable future. In addition, we have no recourse on receivables due until
Historically, we have generated significant cash flow through normal operating activities for funding both long-term and short-term needs. Our near-term liquidity is managed to ensure that adequate resources are available to fund our seasonal working capital growth, which is driven by demand for our loan and financing products. OnMay 30, 2014 , we issued and sold$500.0 million in aggregate principal amount of 9.75% senior notes due 2021 (the "2021 Senior Notes"). OnSeptember 1, 2017 , we issued and sold$250.0 million in aggregate principal amount of 8.50% Senior Notes due 2024 (the "2024 Senior Notes") and used the net proceeds, in part, to retire$155.0 million in 2021 Senior Notes. OnJanuary 21, 2018 , we redeemed an additional$50.0 million in principal amount of the outstanding 2021 Senior Notes. OnSeptember 19, 2018 , we issued and sold$375.0 million in aggregate principal amount of 8.50% Senior Notes due 2025 (the "2025 Senior Notes") and used the net proceeds, in part, to retire the remaining$295.0 million in principal amount of the outstanding 2021 Senior Notes. OnJune 30, 2017 , we entered into a secured revolving credit agreement (as amended, the "Credit Agreement"). OnApril 13, 2018 ,October 5, 2018 ,July 1, 2019 andMay 10, 2021 , we and certain of our operating subsidiaries entered into amendments to our Credit Agreement. OnJune 23, 2022 we entered into an additional amendment to our Credit Agreement that, among other things, increased the borrowing capacity to$440.0 million , with a$20.0 million letter of credit sublimit and$10.0 million swingline loan sublimit. The Credit Agreement bears interest, at our option, at the base rate plus 0.75% or the Secured Overnight Financing Rate plus 3.50%. In addition to customary fees for a credit facility of this size and type, the Credit Agreement provides for payment of a commitment fee calculated with respect to the unused portion of the commitment, and ranges from 0.15% per annum to 0.50% per annum depending on usage. The Credit Agreement contains certain prepayment penalties if it is terminated on or before the first and second anniversary dates, subject to certain exceptions. The Credit Agreement matures onJune 30, 2026 . As ofJuly 27, 2022 , our available borrowings under the Credit Agreement were$155.3 million . Since 2016, we have entered into several loan securitization facilities and offered asset-backed notes to fund our growth, primarily in our near-prime consumer installment loan and small business loan businesses. As ofJuly 27, 2022 , we had committed and undrawn funding capacity of$598.7 million . We expect that our operating needs, including satisfying our obligations under our debt agreements and funding our working capital growth, will be satisfied by a combination of cash flows from operations, borrowings under the Credit Agreement, or any refinancing, replacement thereof or increase in borrowings thereunder, and securitization or sale of loans and finance receivables under our consumer and small business loan securitization facilities. As ofJune 30, 2022 , we were in compliance with all financial ratios, covenants and other requirements set forth in our debt agreements. Unexpected changes in our financial condition or other unforeseen factors may result in our inability to obtain third-party financing or could increase our borrowing costs in the future. To the extent we experience short-term or long-term funding disruptions, we have the ability to adjust our volume of lending and financing to consumers and small businesses that would reduce cash outflow requirements while increasing cash inflows through repayments. Additional alternatives may include the securitization or sale of assets, increased borrowings under the Credit Agreement, or any refinancing or replacement thereof, and reductions in capital spending, which could be expected to generate additional liquidity.
Capital
Our Total stockholders' equity increased by$15.0 million to$1,108.1 million atJune 30, 2022 from$1,093.1 million atDecember 31, 2021 . The increase of stockholders' equity was driven primarily by net income for the six months endedJune 30, 2022 and, to a lesser extent, stock-based compensation expense, partially offset by repurchases of our outstanding common stock. Our book value per share outstanding increased to$34.43 atJune 30, 2022 from$32.01 atDecember 31, 2021 , which was primarily driven primarily by the decrease in shares outstanding as a result of share repurchases, which is discussed in more detail below. OnNovember 5, 2020 , we announced the Board of Directors had authorized a share repurchase program for up to$50.0 million of our outstanding common stock throughDecember 31, 2021 (the "2020 Authorization"). OnNovember 4, 2021 , we announced the Board of Directors authorized a new share repurchase program totaling$150.0 million throughDecember 31, 2022 (the "2021 Authorization"). The 2021 Authorization replaced the 2020 Authorization. OnFebruary 9, 2022 , we announced the Board of Directors authorized a new share repurchase program totaling$100.0 million throughJune 30, 2023 (the "2022 Authorization"). The 2022 Authorization replaced the 2021 Authorization. Repurchases under our share repurchase programs are made in accordance with applicable securities laws from time to time in the open market, through privately negotiated transactions or otherwise. Our share repurchase programs do not obligate us to purchase any shares of our common stock. Similar to our previous share repurchase programs, the 2022 Authorization may be terminated, increased or decreased by the Board of Directors in its discretion at any time. During the six months endedJune 30, 2022 , we had$99.2 million in repurchases of common stock under our share repurchase programs.
Cash
Our cash and cash equivalents are held primarily for working capital purposes
and are used to fund a portion of our lending activities. We do not enter into
investments for trading or speculative purposes. Our policy is to invest cash in
excess of our immediate working

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
capital requirements in short-term investments, custodial accounts or other arrangements intended to preserve the principal balance and maintain adequate liquidity. Our excess cash may be invested primarily in overnight sweep accounts, money market instruments or similar arrangements that offer competitive returns consistent with our policies and market conditions.
Our restricted cash represents funds held in accounts as reserves on certain debt facilities and as collateral for issuing bank partner transactions. We have no ability to draw on such funds as long as they remain restricted under the applicable arrangements but have the ability to use these funds to finance loan originations, subject to meeting borrowing base requirements. Our policy is to invest restricted cash held in debt facility related accounts, to the extent permitted by such debt facility, in investments designed to preserve the principal balance and provide liquidity. Accordingly, such cash is invested primarily in money market instruments that offer daily purchase and redemption and provide competitive returns consistent with our policies and market conditions.
