Dave Inc./DE Segments Disclosure
Note 20 Segment Information
In accordance with ASC 280, Segment Reporting, the operations of the Company constitute a operating and reportable segment. This conclusion reflects the manner in which the Chief Operating Decision Maker ("CODM"), a joint responsibility, shared by the , reviews financial information and makes operating decisions. The determination of the reportable segment is based on the nature of the Company’s products and services, as well as the financial performance, on a consolidated entity-wide basis, that are regularly reviewed by the CODM to guide resource allocation and assess performance.
The Company’s operations, all of which are located in the United States, collectively support this single-segment structure. No Member individually contributed to 10% or more of the Company’s revenues for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023.
For further information regarding the Company’s products, services, and the accounting policies applied to its reportable segment, refer to Note 2 Significant Accounting Policies.
The key performance measure used by the CODM to make key operating decisions is consolidated net income, as reported in the Consolidated Statement of Operations. This measure is used to assess overall financial performance, identify areas for operation improvement and resource allocation and allocate budget between the provision for credit losses, processing and servicing costs, advertising and marketing, compensation and benefits and other operating expenses. This measure helps to ensure alignment with the Company’s long-term financial objectives and supports consistent evaluation across all business activities.
The segment assets and liabilities reviewed by the CODM are those reported on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets, with particular focus on available liquidity, including cash, cash equivalents, investments, restricted cash, and ExtraCash receivables, offset by current liabilities and outstanding debt.
The following table presents selected financial information with respect to the Company’s single operating and reportable segment for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023:

Other operating expenses primarily include professional services, legal fees and settlements, depreciation and amortization of property and equipment and intangible assets, charitable contributions, insurance, sales tax-related costs, meetings and events, and other general and administrative costs. These costs generally reflect our investments in infrastructure, business development, risk management, and administrative functions, and may vary period to period based on operational needs and strategic initiatives.
Significant noncash items that impact net income include provision for credit losses, stock based compensation, depreciation expense, amortization expense (see Note 7, Intangible Assets, Net), gain on extinguishment of convertible debt (see Note 9, Convertible Note), deferred income taxes (see Note 18, Income Taxes), changes in fair value of earnout liabilities, and changes in fair value of public and private warrant liabilities (see Note 14, Fair Value of Financial Instruments).

About Segments Disclosures
Segment disclosures break a company into its reportable operating units, revealing revenue, profit, and asset allocation that consolidated financial statements obscure. Under ASC 280, segments must match how the chief operating decision maker views the business, providing a window into internal management structure and resource allocation priorities.
Key signals: compare segment margins to identify which units drive profitability and which destroy value. Watch for changes in the number of reportable segments — segment aggregation or disaggregation often coincides with strategic shifts or attempts to obscure declining performance. Intersegment elimination patterns reveal internal pricing practices. The reconciliation between segment totals and consolidated figures exposes corporate overhead allocation and unallocated items. Geographic revenue concentration highlights regulatory and currency exposure. Compare segment-level capital expenditure against segment revenue to assess where management is investing for future growth versus harvesting existing assets.
