What to watch
- Whether Q4 2026 Loan Marketplace Volume lands in the $6.2 to $6.7 billion guided range.
- Whether Gross Take Rate lands in the 3.1% to 3.4% guided range, compared with the 3.9% reported for Q3 2026.
- Progress on Kiavi integration and the cost synergies, including the $30 million actioned to date.
- Trajectory of Figure Connect's share of standalone Loan Marketplace volume, which was 72% in Q3 2026.
- Net income and tax line in future quarters, given the prior-year one-time tax benefit of $31 million in Q3 2025 and the reported Q3 2026 provision of $12,866 thousand.
- Debt levels and funding, given the rise in non-current and related-party debt, and the use of the expanded $400 million repurchase authorization.

Profitability is mixed. Net income was $89,315 thousand, down 1% from $89,822 thousand, and net income margin was 31% versus 57%. The release states that Q3 2025 net income included a one-time tax benefit of $31 million from the recognition of deferred tax assets following the recombination of FT Intermediate, Inc. and Figure Markets Holdings, Inc. The income tax line was a provision of $12,866 thousand in Q3 2026 against a benefit of $(31,463) thousand in Q3 2025. Operating income rose to $101,794 thousand from $52,718 thousand, and Q3 interest expense rose to $29,742 thousand from $12,450 thousand. Adjusted EBITDA was $163,564 thousand, up 91%, with an Adjusted EBITDA margin of 58% versus 55%. Nine-month GAAP diluted EPS was $0.90 versus $0.38, and Q3 diluted EPS was $0.36 versus $0.34.
Take rates moved lower. Gross Take Rate was 3.9% versus 5.2% in Q3 2025, and Net Take Rate was 3.5% versus 4.4%. The filing does not state the cause of these changes. Total expenses were $185,328 thousand versus $103,647 thousand, with general and administrative at $59,007 thousand versus $36,366 thousand and operations and processing at $37,374 thousand versus $18,217 thousand. Q3 Adjusted EBITDA excludes stock-based compensation of $24,271 thousand and acquisition-related costs of $15,455 thousand, as reconciled in the release.
The balance sheet expanded alongside the acquisition. Total assets were $4,164,440 thousand versus $2,317,523 thousand at year-end 2025, and goodwill of $318,742 thousand and intangible assets of $206,983 thousand were recorded at September 30, 2026, against nil at year-end. Total liabilities rose to $2,645,840 thousand from $1,080,325 thousand, with non-current debt of $998,275 thousand versus $230,143 thousand and current debt to related parties of $593,049 thousand versus $166,135 thousand. Cash and cash equivalents, excluding restricted cash, were $1,590,346 thousand. The Board increased the share repurchase authorization by $200 million to $400 million, and treasury stock stood at $(9,700) thousand. The filing does not include a cash flow statement.
The Q4 2026 guide calls for Loan Marketplace Volume of $6.2 to $6.7 billion and Gross Take Rate of 3.1% to 3.4%. No prior outlook was supplied, so no guidance comparison is made. The guided take-rate range sits below the 3.9% Q3 2026 Gross Take Rate as printed in this release, and the guide does not include revenue, margin, operating expense or tax figures. Readers should weigh the strong top-line and volume growth against flat net income, the lower take rates and the substantially higher debt load.
Management, verbatim
This was a record quarter for Figure, highlighted by another consecutive quarter of over 100% volume growth and the rapid expansion of our capital-light marketplace, with Figure Connect now making up 72% of our standalone volume.

- Q4 2026 guidance for revenue, gross margin, operating expenses and tax rate is not given.
- Q2 2026 (prior-quarter) comparatives are not printed, so all qoq_change and prior_quarter fields are null.
- Year-over-year percentage changes are not printed for the revenue sub-lines, operating expense lines, operating income, interest expense, income tax, or total expenses, so those fields are null.
- Analyst consensus estimates, price targets and the share-price reaction are not in the documents.
- A cash flow statement is not included, so operating cash flow, free cash flow and capital expenditure are not reported.
- The amount of share repurchases executed in Q3 2026 is not printed.
- The filing does not give segment reporting beyond revenue line items and volume metrics, and does not explain the causes of individual revenue line movements.

Written by an AI language model from the company’s SEC earnings filing (Form 8-K Item 2.02, or Form 6-K for a foreign private issuer). Every figure is checked against the filing text, and a metric the filing does not print, or whose value, prior period and change do not add up, is dropped from the metrics. The model can still misread a table, in the metrics or in the text, so check a number in the filing before you rely on it. Consensus estimates, price targets and share-price reactions are not shown because they are not in the filing. AI-generated research, not investment advice.
