Revenue Breakdown
- Account Fee Income: Decreased by 38.5% to $3,963,097 in 2025 from $6,447,201 in 2024, due to limited lending capacity, cannabis industry pressures, termination of a banking relationship, and a renegotiated revenue-sharing arrangement.

- Investment Income: Decreased by 44.8% to $1,155,433 in 2025 from $2,092,863 in 2024, influenced by declining IORB rates, the launch of interest-bearing money market accounts, decreased average daily deposit balances, and the termination of the Five Star Bank relationship.
- Loan Program Income: Decreased by 62.6% to $2,478,082 in 2025 from $6,625,576 in 2024, primarily due to the First Amended CAA reducing the company’s share of income, partially offset by a $0.4 million increase from the Second Amended CAA’s retroactive effect.

- General and Administrative Expenses: Decreased by 18.0% to $3,294,275 in 2025 from $4,018,094 in 2024, driven by lower depreciation and amortization, reduced bank-sharing fees, and lower investment relations expenses, partially offset by increased hosting fees.
- Professional Services: Increased by 32.2% to $3,328,222 in 2025 from $2,518,394 in 2024, due to a shift to external legal counsel, litigation-related fees, and costs associated with the September 2025 Recapitalization and auditor transition.
