NEW YORK–(BUSINESS WIRE<\/a>)–
\nBetter Home & Finance Holding Company (NASDAQ: BETR; BETRW) (\u201cBetter,\u201d the \u201cCompany,\u201d \u201cour\u201d or \u201cwe\u201d), the AI-native mortgage and home equity finance company, today reported financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2026.<\/p>\n\n\u201cQ1 2026 was a strong quarter for Better. We grew loan volume 89% year over year and exceeded the high end of our previously-issued guidance with revenue up 52% year over year. Tinman AI platform volume made up 50% of our loan volume, a level we expect to build from,” said Vishal Garg, CEO and Founder of Better.<\/p>\n
\n\u201cGoing into Q2, the higher-rate macro environment is shifting our mix toward HELOCs, and we are leaning into that shift. HELOCs come in at lower loan balance than refinance, but they carry higher gain on sale margins, which is driving meaningful revenue growth in Q2. And in the month of April alone, our top of funnel increased dramatically as our existing partnership pre-approval volume 2x\u2019ed within the month, to grow from $100 million per day to a $200 million per day as one of our larger partners increased customer exposure to our product. This is a huge reservoir of pent-up customer demand, that while it may hesitate to lock and fund immediately now due to the uncertainty in the Middle East and elevated rates, it will unlock into massive volume and revenue growth once things settle down\u201d Garg added.<\/p>\n
\n\u201cCombined with the capital and cost actions we took earlier this year, we are well-positioned to continue advancing toward profitability,” Garg added.<\/p>\n
First Quarter 2026 Financial Highlights:<\/b><\/p>\n
\nFollowing the reclassification of our U.K.-based bank to discontinued operations, prior-period results have been recast on a comparable basis.<\/p>\n
GAAP Results:<\/b><\/p>\n
- \n
- \nTotal Net Revenues of $48 million, compared to $31 million in Q1 2025, reflecting 52% growth year over year.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n
- \nNet Loss of $70 million, compared to a loss of $51 million in Q1 2025 reflecting a 39% increase year over year.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Key Operating Metrics and Non-GAAP Financial Measures:<\/b><\/p>\n
- \n
- \nAdjusted EBITDA loss of $19 million, compared to a loss of $36 million in Q1 2025, reflecting a 48% improvement year over year.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n
- \nLoan Volume of $1.64 billion, compared to $868 million in Q1 2025, reflecting 89% growth year over year and exceeding the high end of previously-issued guidance of $1.40 to $1.55 billion.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n
- \n5,018 Total Loans, compared to 2,975 in Q1 2025, reflecting 69% growth year over year.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n
- \nBy Product: Refinance Loan Volume of $854 million comprised 52% of Loan Volume; Purchase Loan Volume of $588 million comprised 36% of Loan Volume; and HELOC Loan Volume of $203 million comprised 12% of Loan Volume.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n
- \nYear-over-year Loan Volume growth was driven primarily by increases in Refinance Loan Volume (542% growth). HELOC Loan Volume grew 30% and Purchase Loan Volume grew 2%.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n
- \nBy Channel: Platform Loan Volume of $821 million comprised 50% of Loan Volume and D2C Loan Volume of $824 million comprised 50% of Loan Volume.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n
- \nMaintained a strong liquidity position, ending Q1 2026 with approximately $136 million of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, and net assets held for sale.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
\n“Q1 reflected meaningful progress. Revenue grew 52% year over year while expenses grew only 27%, demonstrating real operating leverage and narrowing our adjusted EBITDA loss by 48% year over year,” said Loveen Advani, CFO of Better.<\/p>\n
\n\u201cThe $25 million in annualized cost reductions we announced last month, alongside the strengthened balance sheet from our capital raise, will further support this progress,\u201d Advani added.<\/p>\n
Guidance<\/b><\/p>\n
- \n
- \nQ2 2026 Loan Volume: $1.575 to $1.725 billion.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n
- \nQ2 Total Net Revenues: $53.0 to $56.0 million.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n
- \nQ2 2026 Adjusted EBTIDA: ($12.5) to ($14.0) million.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n
- \nReaffirmed Adjusted EBITDA breakeven by the end of Q3 2026.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
\nA reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to Net Loss on a forward-looking basis cannot be provided without unreasonable efforts, as the Company is unable to provide reconciling information with respect to benefit for income taxes, stock-based compensation, changes in fair value of warrant liabilities, and goodwill impairment, all of which are adjustments to Adjusted EBITDA.<\/p>\n
First Quarter 2026 Operational Highlights:<\/b><\/p>\n

Subsequent Events in Q2 2026:<\/b><\/p>\n

Key Metrics<\/b><\/p>\n
\nThis press release refers to the following key metrics:<\/p>\n
\nFunded Loan Volume represents the aggregate dollar amount of all loans funded in a given period based on the principal amount of the loan at funding.<\/p>\n
\nLoan Volume consists of Funded Loan Volume and Processed Volume.<\/p>\n
\nProcessed Volume includes loans processed on the Tinman platform on behalf of our strategic partners but not funded by Better.<\/p>\n
\nPurchase Loan Volume represents the aggregate dollar amount of purchase loans funded in a given period based on the principal amount of the loan at purchase date.<\/p>\n
\nRefinance Loan Volume represents the aggregate dollar amount of refinance loans funded in a given period based on the principal amount of the loan at refinancing date.<\/p>\n
\nHELOC Loan Volume represents the aggregate dollar amount of HELOC and close-end second lien loans funded in a given period based on the principal amount of the loan at funding.<\/p>\n
\nD2C Loan Volume represents the aggregate dollar amount of loans funded in a given period based on the principal amount of the loan at funding that have been generated from direct interactions with customers using all marketing channels other than our partner relationships and our Tinman\u00ae AI Platform channel.<\/p>\n
\nPlatform Loan Volume represents the aggregate dollar amount of loans funded in a given period based on the principal amount of the loan at funding that have been generated through one of our partner relationships.<\/p>\n
\nTotal Loans represents the total number of loans funded in a given period, including purchase loans, refinance loans, HELOC loans and closed-end second lien loans.<\/p>\n
Use of Non-GAAP Measures and Other Financial Metrics<\/b><\/p>\n
\nWe include certain financial measures not presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (\u201cGAAP\u201d) including Adjusted EBITDA, Funded Loan Volume and other key metrics.<\/p>\n
\nWe calculate Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) adjusted for the impact of stock-based compensation expense, change in the fair value of warrants and equity-related liabilities, and other non-recurring or non-core operational expenses, as well as interest and amortization on non-funding debt (which includes interest on the Convertible Note (as defined in our Form 10-K), depreciation and amortization expense, and income tax (benefit)\/expense.<\/p>\n
\nThis non-GAAP financial measure should not be considered in isolation and is not intended to be a substitute for any GAAP financial measure. This non-GAAP measure provides supplemental information that we believe helps investors better understand our business, our business model and how we analyze our performance. We also believe this non-GAAP financial measure improves investors\u2019 and analysts\u2019 ability to compare our results with those of our competitors and other similarly situated companies, which commonly disclose similar performance measures.<\/p>\n
\nHowever, our calculation of Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled performance measures presented by other companies. Further, although we use this non-GAAP measure to assess the financial performance of our business, this measure excludes certain substantial costs related to our business, and investors are cautioned not to use such measures as a substitute for financial results prepared according to GAAP. Non-GAAP financial measures have limitations in their usefulness to investors because they have no standardized meaning prescribed by GAAP and are not prepared under any comprehensive set of accounting rules or principles. As a result, non-GAAP financial measures should be viewed as supplementing, and not as an alternative or substitute for, our financial results prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP.<\/p>\n

\n (1)<\/td>\n \n \nDepreciation and amortization represents the loss in value of fixed and intangible assets through depreciation and amortization, respectively. These expenses are non-cash expenses, and we believe that they do not correlate to the performance of our business during the periods presented.<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
\n (2)<\/td>\n \n \nStock-based compensation represents the non-cash grant date fair value of stock-based instruments utilized to incentivize employees and consultants recognized over the applicable vesting period. This expense is a non-cash expense. We exclude this expense from our internal operating plans and measurement of financial performance (although we consider the dilutive impact to our stockholders when awarding stock-based compensation and value such awards accordingly).<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
\n (3)<\/td>\n \n \nInterest and amortization on non-funding debt represents interest and amortization on the Convertible Note, which is included within net interest income in our Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Loss.<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
