Elevate Credit : Q1 2020 EARNINGS RELEASES

ELEVATE CREDIT ANNOUNCES FIRST QUARTER 2020 RESULTS

FORT WORTH, TX - May 6, 2020 - Elevate Credit, Inc. (NYSE: ELVT) ("Elevate" or the "Company"), a leading tech-enabled provider of innovative and responsible online credit solutions for non-prime consumers, today announced results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2020.

"We are pleased that our Q1 adjusted net income exceeded our previous guidance, however, we acknowledge investors are most focused on our future outlook," said Elevate President and CEO Jason Harvison. "Our proactive measures to reach consumers with payment flexibility tools have helped provide insulation to them from the unprecedented events of COVID-19. While we are seeing a manageable uptick in customer payment deferrals, our delinquent customer loan balances are in line with historical percentages."

First Quarter 2020 Financial Results1

• $13.6 million in non-operating charges result in net loss: Net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2020 totaled $(4.9) million, down $18.3 million compared to $13.4 million in net income in the first quarter of 2019. Basic and fully diluted loss per share for the first quarter of 2020 were $(0.11), a decrease from $0.30 per fully diluted earnings per share a year ago. Excluding the impact of non-operatingcharges of $9.3 million related to the write-offof goodwill associated with our UK entity and a $4.3 million non-operatingloss related to a legal matter, adjusted net income for the first quarter of 2020 would have been $7.6 million, or $0.17 per fully diluted share. See "Non-GAAPFinancial Measures" for a reconciliation of the tax impact to the GAAP measures of net (loss) income and diluted (loss) earnings per share. Additionally, net income from our UK operations decreased $6.0 million in the first quarter of 2020 compared to a year ago due to a decline in revenue and increase in complaint expense associated with customer affordability claims resulting in a $3.6 million net loss for the quarter.
• Revenue: Revenues decreased 6.4% for the first quarter of 2020 totaling $177.5 million compared to $189.5 million for the first quarter of 2019. Excluding the year-over-year decline in revenues from our UK operations, revenues from our US operations for the first quarter of 2020 increased over the prior year first quarter. Additionally, consolidated revenues less net charge-offs totaled $89.4 million for the first quarter of 2020, an increase of 4.5% from $85.5 million in the first quarter of 2019.
• Combined loans receivable - principal: Combined loans receivable - principal totaled $577.7 million at March 31, 2020, an increase of $2.6 million, or 0.4%, from $575.1 million for the prior-year quarter end. Combined loans receivable - principal at March 31, 2020 for our flagship Rise installment loan product were up 15.5% from the first quarter of 2019, despite a $13.6 million decrease in our California Rise loan balances. The California Rise loan portfolio totaled $39.8 million at March 31, 2020, down from $58.0 million at December 31, 2019.

__________________________

1 Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, combined loans receivable - principal, combined loans receivable, combined loan loss reserve, adjusted net income and adjusted diluted earnings per share are non-GAAP financial measures.

• Customer acquisition cost: The average customer acquisition cost ("CAC") was $259 in the first quarter of 2020, within the targeted range of $250-$300, and higher than $221 for the prior-year quarter. The total number of new customer loans decreased from approximately 50,000 in the first quarter of 2019 to 47,000 in the first quarter of 2020. The Company's new loan origination volume and related CAC were negatively impacted in March 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
• Adjusted EBITDAmargin:Adjusted EBITDAtotaled $33.3 million in the first quarter of 2020, down 25.6% from $44.7 million in the first quarter of 2019. The Adjusted EBITDAmargin for the first quarter of 2020 was 18.7%, down from 23.6% in the prior-year quarter.

Credit quality and initial impact of COVID-19

The Company and the bank originators we support have expanded their payment flexibility programs to allow customers to extend their next payment up to 60 days. As of March 31, 2020, 4.7% of customers have been provided relief through a COVID-19 payment deferral program for a total of $26.4 million in loans with deferred payments. Both the Company and the bank originators are closely monitoring early credit quality indicators such as first payment defaults, deferred payments, and line of credit utilization. The Company and the bank originators we support have implemented underwriting changes to address credit risk associated with originations during the economic crisis created by the COVID-19 pandemic and have seen reduced origination applications and origination volume since the beginning of the pandemic.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company is in a strong liquidity position and was able to pay-down debt facilities by approximately $45 million during the first quarter of 2020. The Company is continuing to assess its minimum cash and liquidity requirements and implementing measures to ensure that our strong liquidity position is maintained through the current economic cycle.

Interest expense in the first quarter of 2020 declined to $14.2 million as compared to $19.2 million in the first quarter of 2019. This decrease resulted from a lower cost of funds related to the amendment of the debt facilities in February 2019, which decreased to approximately 10.4%, versus 13.6% in the first quarter of 2019, respectively.

During the first quarter of 2020, the Company purchased $4.2 million of common shares under the Company's previously approved common stock repurchase program.

Financial Outlook

The Company is withdrawing its full-year 2020 earnings guidance due to the uncertain impact on our business and results of operations resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release and the attached financial tables contain certain non-GAAP financial measures, including Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, Adjusted net income, adjusted diluted earnings per share, combined loans receivable - principal, combined loans receivable and combined loan loss reserve.

Adjusted Earnings Measures

In addition to net (loss) income determined in accordance with GAAP, Elevate uses certain non-GAAP measures such as "Adjusted EBITDA", "Adjusted EBITDA margin", "Adjusted net income", and "Adjusted diluted earnings per share", (collectively, "Adjusted Earnings Measures"), in assessing its operating performance. Elevate believes these non-GAAP measures are appropriate measures to be used in evaluating the performance of its business.

Elevate defines Adjusted EBITDA as net (loss) income excluding the impact of income tax expense, non-operating loss, impairment loss, foreign currency transaction (gain) loss associated with our UK operations, net interest expense, share-based compensation expense and depreciation and amortization expense. Elevate defines Adjusted EBITDA margin as Adjusted EBITDA divided by revenue.

Elevate defines Adjusted net income as net (loss) income excluding the impact of an impairment on goodwill and a contingent loss related to a legal matter (tax effected). Elevate defines Adjusted diluted earnings per share as Adjusted net income divided by Diluted weighted average shares outstanding.

Management believes that Adjusted Earnings Measures are useful supplemental measures to assist management and investors in analyzing the operating performance of the business and provide greater transparency into the results of operations of our core business. Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures frequently in its decision- making because it provides supplemental information that facilitates internal comparisons to the historical operating performance of prior periods and gives an additional indication of Elevate's core operating performance. Elevate includes these non-GAAP financial measures in its earnings announcement in order to provide transparency to its investors and enable investors to better compare its operating performance with the operating performance of its competitors.

Adjusted Earnings Measures should not be considered as alternatives to net (loss) income or any other performance measure derived in accordance with GAAP. Management's use of Adjusted Earnings Measures has limitations as an analytical tool, and investors should not consider it in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of the Company's results as reported under GAAP. Some of these limitations are:

• Although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized may have to be replaced in the future, and Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect expected cash capital expenditure requirements for such replacements or for new capital assets;
• Adjusted EBITDAdoes not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, the Company's working capital needs; and
• Adjusted EBITDAdoes not reflect interest associated with notes payable used for funding customer loans, for other corporate purposes or tax payments that may represent a reduction in cash available to the Company.

Additionally, Elevate's definition of Adjusted Earnings Measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

Elevate is required to consolidate Elastic SPV, Ltd. as a variable interest entity under GAAPand the condensed consolidated financial statements include revenue, losses and loans receivable related to the 90% of Elastic lines of credit originated by Republic Bank and sold to Elastic SPV, Ltd.

Beginning in the fourth quarter of 2018, the Company also licensed its Rise installment loan brand to a third-party lender, FinWise Bank, which originates Rise installment loans in eighteen states. FinWise Bank initially provides all of the funding and retains a percentage of the balances of all of the loans originated and sells the remaining loan participation in those Rise installment loans to a third party SPV, EF SPV, Ltd. Prior to August 1, 2019, FinWise Bank retained 5% of the balances, and sold a 95% participation to EF SPV, Ltd. Starting August 1, 2019, the participation percentage changed to 96%. Elevate is required to consolidate EF SPV, Ltd. as a variable interest entity under GAAP and the condensed consolidated financial statements include revenue, losses and loans receivable related to the 96% of Rise installment loans originated by FinWise Bank and sold to EF SPV, Ltd.

Elevate defines combined loans receivable - principal as loans owned by the Company plus loans originated and owned by third-party lenders pursuant to our CSO programs. In Texas, the Company does not make Rise loans directly, but rather acts as a Credit Services Organization (which is also known as a Credit Access Business), or, "CSO," and the loans are originated by an unaffiliated third party. There are no new loan originations in Ohio commencing in April 2019, but the Company continues to have obligations as the CSO until the wind-down of this portfolio is complete. Elevate defines combined loan loss reserve as the loan loss reserve for loans owned by the Company plus the loan loss reserve for loans originated and owned by third-party lenders and guaranteed by the Company. The information presented in the tables below on a combined basis are non-GAAP measures based on a combined portfolio of loans, which includes the total amount of outstanding loans receivable that the Company owns and that are on the Company's condensed consolidated balance sheets plus outstanding loans receivable originated and owned by third parties that the Company guarantees pursuant to CSO programs in which the Company participates.

The Company believes these non-GAAP measures provide investors with important information needed to evaluate the magnitude of potential loan losses and the opportunity for revenue performance of the combined loan portfolio on an aggregate basis. The Company also believes that the comparison of the combined amounts from period to period is more meaningful than comparing only the amounts reflected on the Company's condensed consolidated balance sheets since both revenues and cost of sales as reflected in the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements are impacted by the aggregate amount of loans the Company owns and those CSO loans the Company guarantees.

The Company's use of total combined loans and fees receivable has limitations as an analytical tool, and investors should not consider it in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of the Company's results as reported under GAAP. Some of these limitations are:

• Rise CSO loans are originated and owned by a third-party lender; and
• Rise CSO loans are funded by a third-party lender and are not part of the VPC Facility.

As of each of the period ends indicated, the following table presents a reconciliation of:

• Loans receivable, net, Company owned (which reconciles to the Company's condensed consolidated balance sheets included elsewhere in this press release);
• Loans receivable, net, guaranteed by the Company;
• Combined loans receivable (which the Company uses as a non-GAAP measure); and
• Combined loan loss reserve (which the Company uses as a non-GAAP measure).
