11.Commitments and Contingencies

Purchase Commitments

In the normal course of business, the Company enters into forward flow purchase agreements. A forward flow purchase agreement is a commitment to purchase receivables over a duration that is typically three to twelve months, but can be longer, generally with a specifically defined volume range, frequency, and pricing. Typically, these forward flow contracts have provisions that allow for early termination or price re-negotiation should the underlying quality of the portfolio deteriorate over time or if any particular month’s delivery is materially different than the original portfolio used to price the forward flow contract. Certain of these forward flow purchase agreements may also have termination clauses, whereby the agreements can be canceled by either party upon providing a certain specified amount of notice.

As of March 31, 2026 and 2025 the Company had entered into forward flow purchase agreements for the purchase of receivables with an estimated minimum aggregate purchase price of approximately $353.2 million and $263.6 million, respectively. The Company expects actual purchases under these forward flow purchase agreements to be significantly greater than the estimated minimum aggregate purchase price.

Employee Savings and Retirement Plan

The Company sponsors defined contribution plans in the U.S., Canada, and the U.K. The U.S. plan is organized as a 401(k) plan under which all employees are eligible to make voluntary contributions to the plan up to 100% of their compensation, subject to IRS limitations, as defined in the plan. The Company makes matching contributions of 25% of up to 6% of an employee’s salary. In Canada, the Company has a Deferred Profit-Sharing Plan (DPSP) in which the Company contributes 3% of salary to their DPSP fund. Employees contributing to the Registered Retirement Savings Plan (RRSP) or Tax-Free Savings Account (TFSA) receive up to a 2% match, bringing the potential total match to 5% of salary. In the U.K., the Company operates the government contribution plan where employees contribute 5% of their salary and the Company contributes 3% of the employee salary on a monthly basis. Employees can make additional contributions to the plan via their salary, either by one off extra contribution or increasing the monthly percentage but must contribute a minimum of 5%. Total compensation expense related to the Company’s contributions was $0.3 million and $0.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively.

Commitments to extend credit

The Company, in the normal course of business through its credit card programs, agrees to purchase the credit card receivables from the issuing bank, thereby incurring off-balance-sheet risk. This risk includes the cardholder’s rights to borrow up to the maximum credit limit on their credit card accounts, which is $14.4 million as of March 31, 2026 and $16.0 million as of March 31, 2025, beyond their current balances. The Company has not experienced a situation in which all of the Company’s cardholders have exercised their entire available line of credit at any given point in time, nor does management anticipate this will ever occur in the future. Also, the Company can, subject to certain regulatory requirements, reduce or cancel these available credit limits.

Contingent payments

As part of the Company’s acquisition of Canaccede Financial Group, Ltd. “(Canaccede”) in March 2020, an exit incentive was awarded to the former shareholders of Canaccede for up to $15.625 million Canadian dollars that would be payable only on a Liquidity Event for J.C. Flowers (“JCF”), defined to mean a final exit, that yielded net returns to JCF in excess of certain hurdles as defined in the purchase agreement. The payment, which is contingent on a Liquidity Event and achieving certain hurdles, would be based on cash-on-cash returns to JCF, measured at that final exit, as an equity-linked incentive with capped upside and designed to be paid with sale proceeds received from a new owner. Each year the Company reassesses the fair value of the exit incentive payment to determine whether such amount should be recorded within the combined and condensed consolidated financial statements. As of March 31, 2026, the Company determined that the occurrence in the future of a Liquidity Event above the requisite MOIC thresholds will be probable by December 31, 2027. As a result, the Company accrued a liability related to the Canaccede Exit Incentive Payment of $9.3 million as of March 31, 2026, reflecting the net present value of an anticipated payment of the maximum amount. $0.2 million has been recorded as expense on the income statement in other selling, general and administrative with the offset being a liability on the balance sheet in accounts payable and accrued expenses for both periods ended March 31, 2026 and 2025.

Litigation

The Company and its subsidiaries are subject to various legal proceedings and claims that arise in the ordinary course of business. For periods ended March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025 there are no material pending legal proceedings to which the Company or its subsidiaries are a party.
