Pagaya raises its Adjusted EBITDA outlook range for full-year 2024 to $160 million-$200 million

Pagaya Technologies LTD. (NASDAQ: PGY) ("Pagaya" or “the Company”), a global technology company delivering AI-driven product solutions for the financial ecosystem, today announced that the Company is executing initiatives to drive enhanced profitability and achieve its goal of reaching positive net cash flow, by further streamlining its operations and accelerating its key growth priorities.

The Company anticipates these initiatives, which include a workforce reduction, will result in annualized gross cost savings of approximately $25 million, a portion of which is expected to be reinvested in key growth areas. As a result, Pagaya is raising its full-year 2024 outlook range for Adjusted EBITDA to $160 million to $200 million, an increase of $10 million from its previous outlook. There is no change to the Company’s full-year 2024 outlook for network volume and total revenue and other income.

“When I joined Pagaya, my first priority was to assess the business to ensure that we were concentrating our product-first strategy on our most productive and profitable initiatives,” said Pagaya’s President, Sanjiv Das. “After an exhaustive bottom-up analysis of our business, we have instilled operational discipline that positions the Company for long-term, sustainable growth – driving our core business strategy and supporting our already impressive scale and margin profile.”

“We continue to execute on our financial strategy, delivering strong unit economics, improved operating leverage, and efficient use of our capital,” said Pagaya’s CFO, Evangelos Perros. “We are raising our expectation for full-year 2024 Adjusted EBITDA, with the full impact of the cost savings expected to be realized in 2025.”

“We brought Sanjiv and Evangelos into their current leadership positions at Pagaya because of their track record of driving operational excellence, and we are confident that these most recent initiatives will position Pagaya to continue to excel in our core areas, while pursuing long-term growth,” said Pagaya’s CEO, Gal Krubiner.
