Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Blend Labs reported stronger first quarter 2026 results with revenue and profitability ahead of guidance. Total revenue was $30.8 million, up 15% from $26.8 million a year earlier, driven by 15% growth in software platform revenue to $28.0 million and 12% growth in professional services.

GAAP gross margin improved to 76% from 71%, while non-GAAP gross margin rose to 80% from 73%. GAAP operating loss narrowed to $5.1 million, and non-GAAP operating income increased to $4.1 million, or a 13% non-GAAP operating margin, compared with $0.7 million and 3% a year ago.

Net loss attributable to common stockholders was $12.8 million, or $0.05 per share, better than $0.06 per share last year. Blend repurchased 11.2 million shares for $18.6 million, with $31.4 million remaining under its authorization, and guided second quarter 2026 revenue to $32–$34 million and non-GAAP operating income to $5–$6 million.

Positive

  • Revenue and margins expanding: Q1 2026 revenue rose 15% to $30.8 million, with non-GAAP gross margin improving to 80% and non-GAAP operating margin rising to 13% from 3% a year earlier.
  • Turn to meaningful non-GAAP profitability: Non-GAAP operating income grew to $4.1 million from $0.7 million, and non-GAAP net income from continuing operations reached $4.4 million.
  • Capital returns alongside growth: The company repurchased 11.2 million shares for $18.6 million while also guiding Q2 2026 revenue up to $32–$34 million and higher non-GAAP operating income of $5–$6 million.

Negative

  • Continuing GAAP losses and negative equity: Q1 2026 GAAP net loss attributable to common stockholders was $12.8 million, stockholders’ equity stood at negative $55.9 million as of March 31, 2026, and cash plus marketable securities declined quarter-over-quarter.
  • High reliance on adjustments: Non-GAAP results exclude significant stock-based compensation of $6.8 million and other items such as restructuring costs and software amortization, so headline profitability depends heavily on these adjustments.

Insights

Blend delivered faster growth, higher margins and positive non-GAAP operating income while still posting GAAP losses.

Blend Labs grew Q1 2026 revenue 15% year-over-year to $30.8M, with both Mortgage Suite and Consumer Banking Suite contributing double-digit increases. Mix remains software-heavy, with platform revenue representing 91% of total, supporting scalability of the model.

Profitability metrics improved meaningfully. GAAP gross margin expanded from 71% to 76%, and non-GAAP gross margin reached 80%. Non-GAAP operating income was $4.1M, a 13% margin versus 3% a year ago, helped by tighter operating expenses despite ongoing restructuring and stock-based compensation costs.

Management returned capital by repurchasing 11.2 million shares for $18.6M, even as total cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities declined from $69.8M to $59.0M as of March 31, 2026. Q2 2026 guidance for revenue of $32–$34M and non-GAAP operating income of $5–$6M signals an expectation of continued growth and margin expansion, though GAAP net losses and negative stockholders’ equity remain important constraints.

non-GAAP operating income financial
"Non-GAAP operating income was $4.1 million, up from $0.7 million in the same period last year."
Non-GAAP operating income is a measure of a company's profit from its core business activities, calculated by excluding certain expenses or income that are not part of regular operations. It provides a clearer picture of how well the business is performing by focusing on ongoing operations, helping investors compare companies more consistently and make better-informed decisions.
free cash flow margin financial
"Free cash flow margin is defined as free cash flow divided by total revenue."
Free cash flow margin is a measure of how much cash a company generates relative to its sales, showing the percentage of revenue that remains after covering operating expenses and investments in growth. It indicates how efficiently a company turns its sales into available cash that can be used for things like paying dividends, reducing debt, or expanding the business. A higher margin suggests better financial health and more flexibility to invest or return value to shareholders.
Economic Value per Funded Loan financial
"In our Mortgage Suite, Economic Value per Funded Loan represents the contractual rates for mortgage and mortgage-related products multiplied by the number of loans funded"

Blend Announces First Quarter 2026 Financial Results

May 7, 2026

SAN FRANCISCO -- Blend Labs, Inc. (NYSE: BLND), a leading origination platform for digital banking solutions, today announced its first quarter 2026 financial results.

"We reported Q1 numbers today, which came in higher than expected on revenue and non-GAAP operating income, and I think that's a direct reflection of how we're operating," said Nima Ghamsari, Co-founder and Head of Blend. "With an agent-first approach, we're transforming how we work internally and how our customers do business with Autopilot. I believe that combination will drive dramatically more efficiency and speed, and open a path to growth acceleration in 2027."

Quarter Highlights
Results Ahead of Guidance: Total revenue and non-GAAP operating income both above the high end of guidance.
Growing Customer Base: Added or expanded 15 customer relationships in the first quarter — with pipeline up more than 40% year-over-year.
Returning Capital to Shareholders: Repurchased 11.2 million shares in the first quarter for $18.6 million — $31.4 million remaining on the existing authorization at quarter end.

First quarter revenue was $30.8 million, an increase of 15% compared to the first quarter of 2025. Software platform revenue was $28.0 million, up 15% year-over-year, and Professional services revenue was $2.9 million compared to $2.5 million in the first quarter of 2025. Total GAAP gross profit margin was 76%, up from 71% in the first quarter of 2025, and non-GAAP gross profit margin was 80%, up from 73% in the same period last year. GAAP operating loss was $5.1 million, compared to a loss of $8.0 million in the first quarter of 2025. Non-GAAP operating income was $4.1 million, up from $0.7 million in the same period last year.

GAAP diluted net loss from continuing operations attributable to common stockholders per share was $0.04 in both the first quarter of 2026 and the same period last year. Non-GAAP diluted net loss from continuing operations attributable to common stockholders per share was breakeven ($0.00) in the first quarter of 2026 compared to a loss of $0.01 in the first quarter of 2025.
Second Quarter Outlook
Blend is providing guidance for the second quarter of 2026 as follows:
$ in millions
Q2 2026 Guidance
Total Revenue
$32.0M - $34.0M
Non-GAAP Operating Income
$5.5M - $6.5M

We have not provided the forward-looking GAAP equivalent to our non-GAAP Operating Income outlook, or a GAAP reconciliation as a result of the uncertainty regarding, and the potential variability of, stock-based compensation, which is affected by our hiring and retention needs and future prices of our stock, and non-recurring, infrequent or unusual items.

Webcast Information
On Thursday, May 7 at 4:30 pm ET, Blend will host a live discussion of its first quarter 2026 financial results. A link to the live discussion will be made available on the Company’s investor relations website at



https://investor.blend.com. A replay will also be made available following the discussion at the same website.
Forward-Looking Statements
This press release contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. These statements may relate to, but are not limited to, quotations of management; the “Second Quarter Outlook” section above; Blend’s expectations regarding its financial condition and operating performance, including growth opportunities, investments and plans for future operations and competitive position; Blend’s partnerships and expectations related to such partnerships on Blend’s products and business; Blend’s products, sales pipeline, and technologies; Blend’s customers and customer relationships, including the businesses of such customers and their positions in the market; Blend’s ability to achieve or maintain profitability in the future; projections for mortgage loan origination volumes, including projections provided by third parties; and other macroeconomic and industry conditions. Forward-looking statements are inherently subject to risks and uncertainties, some of which cannot be predicted or quantified. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as “may,” “will,” “should,” “expect,” “plan,” “anticipate,” “could,” “would,” “intend,” “target,” “project,” “contemplate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “predict,” “potential” or “continue” or the negative of these terms or other comparable terminology that concern Blend’s expectations, strategy, plans or intentions. You should not put undue reliance on any forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements should not be read as a guarantee of future performance or results and will not necessarily be accurate indications of the times at, or by which such performance or results will be achieved, if at all.

Forward-looking statements are based on information available at the time those statements are made and/or management’s good faith beliefs and assumptions as of that time with respect to future events and are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual performance or results to differ materially from those expressed in or suggested by the forward-looking statements. These risks and uncertainties include the risks that: ongoing uncertainty or deterioration in economic conditions, such as increased mortgage interest rates, credit availability, real estate prices, tariffs and regulatory changes, inflation or consumer confidence, adversely affect our industry, markets and business; we fail to retain our existing customers or to acquire new customers in a cost-effective manner; our customers fail to maintain their utilization of our products and services; our relationships with any of our key customers were to be terminated or the level of business with them significantly reduced over time; we are unable to compete in highly competitive markets; we are unable to manage our growth; we are unable to make accurate predictions about our future performance due to our limited operating history in an evolving industry and evolving markets; our restructuring actions do not result in the desired outcomes or adversely affect our business, impairment charges on certain assets have an adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations; changes to our expectations regarding our share repurchase program; our strategic initiatives, including our decision to exit our Title business, could adversely affect our financial condition; or we are unable to generate sufficient cash flows or otherwise maintain sufficient liquidity to fund our operations and satisfy our liabilities. Further information on these risks and other factors that could affect our financial results are set forth in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, and will be set forth in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2026. In light of these risks and uncertainties, the forward-looking events and circumstances discussed in this press release may not occur and actual results could differ materially from those anticipated or implied in the forward-looking statements. These factors could cause actual results, performance, or achievement to differ materially and adversely from those anticipated or implied in the forward-looking statements. Moreover, we operate in a very competitive and rapidly changing environment. New risks and uncertainties emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for us to predict all risks and uncertainties that could have an impact on the forward-looking statements contained in this press release. Except as required by law, Blend does not undertake any obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future developments, or otherwise.

About Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Other Performance Metrics
In addition to financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP, this press release and the accompanying tables contain, and the conference call will contain, non-GAAP financial measures,



including non-GAAP gross profit and non-GAAP gross margin, non-GAAP operating expenses, non-GAAP income (loss) from operations, non-GAAP operating margin, non-GAAP net income (loss) from continuing operations, and non-GAAP diluted net income (loss) per share from continuing operations attributable to common stockholders. Our management uses these non-GAAP financial measures internally in analyzing our financial results and believes they are useful to investors, as a supplement to the corresponding GAAP financial measures, in evaluating our ongoing operational performance and trends, in allowing for greater transparency with respect to measures used by our management in their financial and operational decision making, and in comparing our results of operations with other companies in the same industry, many of which present similar non-GAAP financial measures to help investors understand the operational performance of their businesses.

We adjust the following items from our non-GAAP financial measures as detailed in the reconciliations below:

Stock-based compensation. We exclude stock-based compensation, which is a non-cash expense, from our non-GAAP financial measures because we believe that excluding this cost provides meaningful supplemental information regarding operational performance. In particular, companies calculate stock-based compensation expense using a variety of valuation methodologies and subjective assumptions, and expense related to stock-based awards can vary significantly based on the timing, size and nature of awards granted.

Workforce reduction costs. We exclude restructuring costs related to workforce reductions as these costs primarily include employee severance and other costs directly associated with resource realignments incurred in connection with changing strategies or business conditions. These costs can vary significantly in amount and frequency based on the nature of the actions as well as the changing needs of our business and we believe that excluding them provides easier comparability of pre- and post-restructuring operating results.

Abandoned and terminated facilities costs. We exclude costs related to abandoned and terminated leases as these costs related to a one-time strategic business decision, are non-recurring or short-term in nature and are not reflective of our ongoing operations. Thus we believe that excluding these charges for purposes of calculating the non-GAAP financial measures provides more meaningful period to period comparisons.

Litigation contingencies and related professional services costs. We exclude costs related to litigation contingencies, which represent reserves for legal settlements, as well as the related professional service fees incurred related to these matters. These costs are non-recurring in nature and we do not believe they have a direct correlation to the operation of our business.

Transaction-related costs. We exclude costs related to strategic transactions from our non-GAAP financial measures as we do not consider these costs to be related to organic continuing operations of our business or relevant to assessing the long-term performance of the impact of such transactions. These adjustments allow for more accurate comparisons of the financial results to historical operations and forward looking guidance. These non-recurring costs include financial advisory, legal, and other transactional costs incurred in connection with investing or divesting activities.

Impairment of capitalized internal-use software. We exclude the impairment of capitalized internal-use software because we do not believe this non-cash expense has a direct correlation to the operation of our business and is non-recurring in nature.

Amortization of capitalized internal-use software. We exclude the amortization of capitalized internal-use software because we do not believe this non-cash expense has a direct correlation to the operation of our business.

Foreign currency gains and losses. We exclude unrealized gains and losses resulting from remeasurement of assets and liabilities from foreign currency into the functional currency as we do not believe these gains and losses to be indicative of our business performance and excluding these gains and losses provides information consistent with how we evaluate our operating results.




Equity in losses of equity method investees, net of tax. We exclude our share of earnings of our equity method investee as we do not believe these earnings to be indicative of our business performance and excluding these earnings provides information consistent with how we evaluate our operating results.

Economic Value per Funded Loan. In our Mortgage Suite, Economic Value per Funded Loan represents the contractual rates for mortgage and mortgage-related products multiplied by the number of loans funded or transactions completed, as applicable, by a customer in the specified period (economic value), divided by the total number of loans funded by all Mortgage Suite customers in that same period. Economic value per funded loan is segregated into three categories: 1) core software, 2) add-on products and 3) partnerships. Core software consists of economic value generated through Mortgage and Blend Close. Add-on products consists of economic value historically generated through Blend Income Verification and Blend Insurance Agency, which have transitioned to partnership models; following the transition, economic value from these products is reported under Partnerships. Partnerships consists of economic value generated from partners through our integrated marketplace. The value derived from products associated with the mortgage application stage is aligned with the timing of funding the related loan (typically a 1-3 month delay from the time of application). Additionally, the value that is associated with fixed platform fees is recognized as revenue ratably over the contractual period, which naturally creates peaks and troughs that align with quarters of low and high mortgage loans funded. We use Economic Value per Funded Loan to measure our success at broadening the client relationships from the underlying mortgage transactions and selling additional products through our software platform.

Our non-GAAP financial measures also include non-GAAP operating margin, which is defined as non-GAAP income (loss) from operations divided by total revenue. We believe that the presentation of non-GAAP operating margin provides useful information to investors as it is one of the metrics we use to assess our operating and financial performance, and also may be a useful metric for investors to compare our operating and financial results with other companies in our industry.

In addition, our non-GAAP financial measures include the following measures related to our liquidity: free cash flow, unlevered free cash flow and free cash flow margin. Free cash flow is defined as net cash flow from operating activities less cash spent on additions to property, equipment, internal-use software and intangible assets. Unlevered free cash flow is defined as free cash flow before cash paid for interest on our outstanding debt. Free cash flow margin is defined as free cash flow divided by total revenue. We believe information regarding free cash flow and free cash flow margin provides useful information to investors as a basis for comparing our performance with other companies in our industry and as a measurement of the cash generation that is available to invest in our business and meet our financing needs. We present unlevered free cash flow primarily for historical comparisons. In April 2024, we repaid in full all amounts outstanding and payable under our debt obligations and therefore eliminated any debt service obligations.

We have not separately adjusted for certain tax-related impacts of our non-GAAP financial measures, as they are not material to our overall non-GAAP results for the periods presented.

It is important to note that the particular items we exclude from, or include in, our non-GAAP financial measures may differ from the items excluded from, or included in, similar non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies in the same industry. In addition, other companies may utilize metrics that are not similar to ours.

The non-GAAP financial information is presented for supplemental informational purposes only and is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to, financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP. There are material limitations associated with the use of non-GAAP financial measures since they exclude significant expenses and income that are required by GAAP to be recorded in our financial statements. Please see the reconciliation tables at the end of this release for the reconciliation of GAAP and non-GAAP results. Management encourages investors and others to review Blend’s financial information in its entirety and not rely on a single financial measure.
