The reported revenue of $55.3 million for BM Technologies is a tangible metric for evaluating the company's performance. The strategic move to transfer Higher Education customer deposits to First Carolina Bank (FCB) and the resultant increase in annualized interchange fees by 20 basis points is noteworthy. This shift leverages the Durbin Amendment exemption, which allows smaller banks to charge higher interchange fees. The expected $4.4 million increase in interchange revenue, based on the $2.2 billion Higher Education debit card spend, is significant as it directly impacts the bottom line.
Moreover, the implementation of the Profit Enhancement Plan (PEP) and the reduction of Core Operating Expenses by approximately $9.5 million suggest a focused effort on cost management. This, combined with the untapped potential in converting Higher Education disbursement services customers to active BankMobile Vibe checking accounts, indicates room for growth in customer base and revenue. The investment in technology upgrades is also a forward-looking move, potentially increasing customer lifetime value and revenue diversification.
BM Technologies' positioning as a large digital banking platform and Banking-as-a-Service (BaaS) provider is important in the context of the fintech industry's growth. The company's focus on the Higher Education sector is strategic, considering the consistent demand for financial services in this demographic. The conversion rate of less than 1 in 5 for Higher Education disbursement services customers to active checking accounts represents a significant market opportunity. By capitalizing on this, BM Technologies can potentially increase market share and customer engagement.
The company's technology platform upgrade is a proactive response to the competitive landscape of digital banking. As customer expectations evolve, BM Technologies' ability to offer enhanced digital experiences will likely be a key differentiator. Their approach to deepen customer relationships and unlock new revenue streams could resonate well with investors looking for companies with a clear growth trajectory in the fintech sector.
The financial results of BM Technologies offer insights into broader economic trends, particularly in the fintech and BaaS industries. The company's revenue growth and strategic initiatives to enhance profitability through cost reduction and revenue diversification reflect a healthy economic approach. The Durbin-exempt status obtained through the partnership with FCB is a tactical maneuver that capitalizes on regulatory frameworks to gain a competitive edge.
In the long term, BM Technologies' investment in technology and potential market expansion strategies could contribute positively to the economy by fostering innovation and competition within the banking sector. The emphasis on customer lifetime value suggests an understanding of the importance of sustainable growth, which is essential for long-term economic stability.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL RECONCILIATIONS - UNAUDITED
Certain financial measures used in this Press Release are not defined by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), and as such, are considered non-GAAP financial measures. Core expenses and EBITDA exclude the effects of items the Company does not consider indicative of its core operating performance, including restructuring, merger and acquisition related expenses, fair value mark to market income or expense associated with certain warrants, impairment of developed software, and non-cash share-based compensation. Management believes the use of core revenues, expenses, and EBITDA are appropriate to provide investors with an additional tool to evaluate the Company's ongoing business performance. Investors are cautioned that these non-GAAP financial measures may not be defined in the same manner by other companies and, as a result, may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures used by other companies. Also, these non-GAAP financial measures should not be construed as alternatives, or superior, to other measures determined in accordance with GAAP.
