SAN CARLOS, Calif., Aug. 21, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Oportun (Nasdaq: OPRT), a mission-driven financial services company, today announced the issuance of approximately $538 million of two-year revolving fixed rate asset-backed notes secured by a pool of unsecured and secured installment loans.

The offering included five classes of fixed rate notes: Class A, Class B, Class C, Class D, and Class E. Fitch rated all classes of notes, assigning ratings of AAA, AA-, A-, BBB-, and BB-, respectively. Jefferies served as the sole structuring agent and co-lead, and Deutsche Bank Securities Inc., Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC and Natixis Corporate & Investment Banking also served as co-leads.

The weighted average coupon on the transaction was 5.23%, and the weighted average yield was 5.29%. The Class A notes were priced with a coupon of 4.49% per annum; the Class B notes were priced with a coupon of 4.93% per annum; the Class C notes were priced with a coupon of 5.18% per annum; the Class D notes were priced with a coupon of 5.91% per annum; and the Class E notes were priced with a coupon of 9.20% per annum.

“This transaction reflects the continued strength of our platform and our ability to deliver for both our investors and members,” said Paul Appleton, Interim Chief Financial Officer at Oportun. “Earning a second AAA rating on our senior notes and pricing 38 basis points better than our June deal demonstrates strong demand for Oportun’s asset-backed securities, including from new investors. This demand allows us to lower funding costs, strengthen our balance sheet, and expand affordable credit to more qualified borrowers.”

Following the second quarter and the execution of the new ABS transaction, Oportun proactively paid $10 million toward the $27.5 million in mandatory corporate loan payments due by January 2026 — further strengthening its balance sheet. Oportun has now reduced the initial October 2024 $235 million balance on its higher cost corporate financing facility to $212.5 million.
