PALO ALTO, Calif., Sept. 09, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Wealthfront Corporation (Nasdaq: WLTH), a tech-driven financial platform helping digital natives turn their savings into wealth, announced financial results for its fiscal second quarter ended July 31, 2026.

F2Q27 Financial Highlights

   -- Quarterly total revenue of $91.9 million increased 1% year-over-year 
      primarily due to a 12% year-over-year increase in Total Platform Assets 
      to $99.0 billion. The difference between revenue growth and Total 
      Platform Asset growth was primarily due to stronger growth in Investment 
      Advisory Assets versus that of higher-fee Cash Management Assets. 
      Investment Advisory Assets were $54.1 billion, up 30% year-over-year, and 
      Cash Management Assets were $44.9 billion, down 4% year-over-year. Total 
      Platform Asset growth included Total Net Deposits of $1.1 billion in the 
      quarter. 
 
   -- Funded Clients of 1.51 million grew 14% year-over-year. Funded Accounts 
      of 1.97 million grew 15% year-over-year. 
 
   -- GAAP expenses of $75.1 million increased from $51.8 million in the prior 
      year quarter, with the increase due primarily to higher stock-based 
      compensation (SBC) expense and higher product development expense. SBC 
      expense was $16.4 million in the quarter versus $1.6 million in the prior 
      year quarter, with this increase due primarily to the recognition of 
      dual-trigger stock awards following the IPO, which took place in December 
      2025. Adjusted operating expenses1 of $58.7 million, which excludes SBC 
      expense, increased 17% year-over-year, primarily due to higher adjusted 
      product development expense. The increase in adjusted product development 
      expense was primarily due to higher personnel-related expenses, including 
      from increased headcount associated with the launch of Wealthfront Home 
      Lending. 
 
   -- GAAP diluted net income of $17.6 million decreased from $34.7 million in 
      the prior year quarter with the decline primarily due to higher GAAP 
      expenses as a result of higher SBC expense from the recognition of 
      dual-trigger stock awards following the IPO versus prior to the IPO. GAAP 
      diluted net income margin was 19%, a decrease from 38% in the prior year 
      quarter driven primarily by the same SBC impact noted above. 
 
   -- GAAP diluted EPS was $0.10 compared to $0.24 in the prior year quarter 
      primarily due to higher SBC expense tied to the recognition of 
      dual-trigger stock awards following the IPO versus prior to the IPO. 
 
   -- Adjusted EBITDA1 of $38.1 million declined 15% year-over-year. Adjusted 
      EBITDA margin1 was 41%, compared to 49% for the prior year quarter. 
 
   -- Net cash provided by operating activities was $47.3 million and Adjusted 
      free cash flow1 was $28.3 million. Adjusted free cash flow conversion 
      ratio1 was 74% for the three months ended July 31, 2026. Note, adjusted 
      free cash flow for the three months ended July 31, 2026 includes the 
      typical, partial payment of employee cash bonuses in July.

Recent Business Highlights

   -- Surpassed $100 Billion in Total Platform Assets as of the end of August, 
      doubling the figure in less than three years. This milestone underscores 
      digital natives' commitment to proven, long-term saving and investing 
      strategies as clients are building emergency funds, investing for 
      retirement, and saving for their first homes, often at the same time. An 
      analysis of clients on the platform from January 1, 2021, to January 1, 
      2026, shows that millennials have on average nearly tripled their wealth 
      held on our platform over that time frame, and Gen Z clients have on 
      average quintupled their wealth held on our platform over that time 
      frame. Wealthfront will aim to continue to build high-quality products at 
      industry-low fee rates in order to help turn clients' savings into wealth 
      and ensure that they achieve their financial goals. 
 
   -- Launched general availability of Wealthfront Home Lending in Texas in 
      early May and California in early August. Wealthfront Home Lending is now 
      live in Colorado, Texas, and California, with expansions to Washington, 
      Florida, Illinois, and Oregon planned in the coming months. Wealthfront 
      Home Lending intends to deliver a fully digital home mortgage experience 
      with below market rates. By building a fully digital product, removing 
      unnecessary steps, and automating away most overhead, Wealthfront Home 
      Lending aims to consistently offer rates at least 50 basis points below 
      the national average, an objective it has delivered to clients on average 
      since launch. 
 
   -- Enhanced the digital experience for Wealthfront Home Lending with several 
      automation improvements. These improvements include the launch of a 
      self-service scenarios tool that allows borrowers to explore custom loan 
      configurations and lock in their rate autonomously online without loan 
      officer intervention, smarter restricted stock unit (RSU) income 
      verification processes, and a streamlined intake flow that pre-fills 
      certain fields incorporating data from both Wealthfront accounts and 
      linked accounts. These product enhancements reflect excellent progress 
      towards Wealthfront Home Lending's vision of delivering the first 
      mortgage product designed to be handled entirely in a mobile app. 
 
   -- Expanded suite of family wealth management offerings with Custodial 
      Accounts. The new offering is one of the only custodial accounts designed 
      to lower a child's future taxes. Wealthfront's software automates a 
      Tax-Gain Harvesting strategy designed to consider the favorable federal 
      tax treatment available to children, helping realize up to $1,350 in 
      tax-free growth each year without requiring a federal tax return filing, 
      increasing their cost basis, thereby reducing the amount of realized gain 
      when the investment is later sold. Thanks to this strategy, when the 
      funds are eventually withdrawn by the child years later, they may have 
      less taxes to pay and can keep more of their returns. Wealthfront's 
      Custodial Account complements the existing 529 Education Savings Plans as 
      well as Joint and Trust Cash and Investing Accounts in the ongoing 
      expansion of family wealth management offerings.

Additional Information

We announce material information to the public through filings with the SEC, the investor relations page on our website (ir.wealthfront.com), press releases, public conference calls, public webcasts, and our social media accounts on X and LinkedIn in order to achieve broad, non-exclusionary distribution of information to the public and for complying with our disclosure obligations under Regulation FD.

The content of our websites and information that we may post on or provide to online and social media channels, including those mentioned above, and information that can be accessed through our websites or these online and social media channels are not incorporated by reference into this presentation or in any report or document we file with the SEC, and any references to our websites or these online and social media channels are intended to be inactive textual references only.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

We collect and analyze operating and financial data to evaluate the health of our business, allocate our resources, and assess our performance. In addition to total revenue, net income (loss) and other results under GAAP, we utilize non-GAAP calculations of adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization ("Adjusted EBITDA"). Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income (loss), excluding: (i) interest expenses, (ii) provision for (benefit from) income taxes, (iii) depreciation and amortization, (iv) stock-based compensation expense, (v) change in fair value of the convertible note, warrant liabilities, and SAFEs, and (vi) nonrecurring expenses, if any. The above items are excluded from our Adjusted EBITDA measure because these items are non-cash in nature, or because the amount and timing of these items is unpredictable, are not driven by core results of operations and render comparisons with prior periods and competitors less meaningful. We define Adjusted EBITDA Margin as Adjusted EBITDA divided by revenue. We believe Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin provide useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating our results of operations, as well as providing a useful measure for period-to-period comparisons of our business performance. Moreover, we have included Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin in this press release because they are key measurements used by our management internally to make operating decisions, including those related to operating expenses, evaluate performance, identify trends affecting our business and perform strategic planning and annual budgeting. Adjusted Free Cash Flow reflects net cash provided from operating activities, less (i) purchases of property, software, and equipment and (ii) capitalized internally developed software, plus (i) the change in temporary client funding receivables, which include (a) the change in direct deposit receivables and (b) the change in instant withdrawal receivables. We believe Adjusted Free Cash Flow allows investors to evaluate the cash generated from our underlying operations in a manner similar to the method used by management. However, the utility of Adjusted Free Cash Flow as a measure of our liquidity is limited as it does not represent the total increase or decrease in our cash balance for a given period. Adjusted Free Cash Flow Conversion reflects 1) Adjusted Free Cash Flow divided by 2) Adjusted EBITDA. Adjusted Operating Expenses reflect GAAP operating expenses, less (i) stock-based compensation expense and (ii) nonrecurring expenses, if any. The above items are excluded from our Adjusted Operating Expenses because these items are non-cash in nature, or because the amount and timing of these items is unpredictable, are not driven by core results of operations and render comparisons with prior periods and competitors less meaningful. Please refer to the Appendix for a reconciliation of each non-GAAP financial measure presented herein to the most directly comparable financial measure stated in accordance with GAAP.

Key Business Metrics

Platform assets: We define "platform assets" as the total value of financial assets held by clients in their accounts as of a stated date on our platform. Net deposits and changes in value attributable to financial market performance are included in the change in platform assets in any given period. We further break down platform assets into two categories of products: cash management and investment advisory.

Net deposits: We define "net deposits" as the value of all assets our clients and we have placed into products on our platform, net of withdrawals, over a defined period of time. Beginning with our fiscal second quarter 2027 earnings report, we include deposit matches from client promotions within the presented amounts starting with June 2026, which aligns with the launch of Wealthfront Custodial Accounts and its related promotion. We exclude changes in value attributable to financial market performance from this metric. We view net deposits as an important barometer of our ability to scale and grow organically and accumulate assets onto our platform. We view the relevant metric as net deposits on a platform-wide basis, not by individual product. Although net deposits can vary by product based on the economic environment, total net deposits provides a more comprehensive view of our growth because our platform offers diverse financial products that are designed to perform under a wide range of economic conditions, allowing the business to maintain resilience and increase total platform assets across market cycles and through extraordinary events.

Funded clients: We define "funded clients" as clients with balances greater than zero or that have been greater than zero on at least one occasion during the 45 consecutive calendar days ending as of the measurement date. Funded clients include clients with a zero balance across all accounts as of the measurement date if they had greater than zero balances in at least one account within 45 calendar days prior to the measurement date. Individuals who shared funded joint accounts are each considered to be a separate funded client. The number of funded clients is as of a stated date and reflects our scale and monetization potential.

Funded accounts: We define "funded accounts" as accounts with balances greater than zero or that have been greater than zero on at least one occasion during the 45 consecutive calendar days ending as of the measurement date. Funded accounts include accounts with a zero balance as of the measurement date if they had greater than zero balances within 45 calendar days prior to the measurement date. A shared funded joint account is considered a single funded account. The number of funded accounts is as of a stated date and reflects our scale and monetization potential.
