    Initiation of Coverage

    Initiating Coverage of On Deck Capital, Inc. (ONDK) with a Buy RatingWe believe OnDeck represents an attractive growth opportunity as its revolutionary online lending platform transforms SMBlending. Relative to traditional bank competitors, OnDeck offers an "Uber-like" experience that SMBs value more than price. Withgrowing brand recognition and key strategic partnerships driving accelerating origination growth, we believe OnDeck can enjoy years of substantial profit growth before competitors start to catch up. While skeptics point to the rich valuation and significant macro risk, we discount the probability of a near-term recession, and in the meantime we think OnDeck should materially exceed today's high expectations. Accordingly, we rate the shares Buy with a $28 target price based on 20x our 2017 EBITDA estimate.

    We believe OnDeck has revolutionized SMB lending and despite significant balancesheet risk and a rich valuation, we are bullish due to the unique growth opportunity.

    Admittedly, to seasoned, specialty finance analysts, OnDeck appears to be anall-too-familiar story that has rarely had a happy ending. From Advanta to Countrywide,we have covered many high-flying lenders that were quickly reduced to bankruptcy after stretching for growth and underestimating credit problems that led to a deadly liquiditysqueeze.

    However, we firmly believe OnDeck is truly different because unlike many in the Spec Fingraveyard, OnDeck brings Uber-like innovation to a grossly overlooked sector. For SMBs,bank loans are not only hard to get (~50% approval rate), but incredibly time consuming(average 26 hours), inconvenient (limited branch hours), and slow (average 4-6 weeks).With OnDeck, the busy entrepreneur can privately apply online anytime, get a decision in15 minutes, and even receive funding same day.

    This transformational experience is powered by true innovation: successfully automatingSMB underwriting down to just a 7% loss rate. OnDecks fifth generation credit modelincludes 10,000+ raw inputs from 100 data sources. The model is continuously improvingand with new strategic partnerships now including valuable underwriting data (Intuit,merchant acquirers), we believe OnDeck's credit models should only get better post-IPO.

    With such low losses and 40+% effective yields, OnDeck has considerable risk-adjustedmargins that drive impressive returns as the business scales. OnDeck's loans are alsoshort (4-5 month duration) which sharply reduces credit risk and with early detection,OnDeck remains profitable even in our recession scenario.

    Still, investing in SMB loans is higher risk, but we share management's confidence asOnDeck has built an entire culture around leveraging data to underwrite credit and webelieve it has just scratched the surface of its lending opportunity. With our current EPSestimates relatively conservative, we see significant upside potential to both earnings andthe stock (see bull scenario). Accordingly, we rate the shares Buy.

    Company Overview

    OnDeck is a leading online platform for small business lending. Small andmedium-size businesses (SMBs) apply online, get approved in minutes, and getfunding as fast as same day. OnDeck launched in 2007 and has now originatedmore than $1.7 billion in loans and collected more than 4.4 million payments.

    OnDeck s approach is unique with SMB loans that are shorter term (10-11months) than most banks and lower cost than traditional short-term SMBalternatives like merchant cash advances (MCAs). The company recentlylaunched a second major product (line of credit) that provides more flexibility forthe companys higher quality borrowers .

    Investment Rationale

    Despite a somewhat speculative valuation (stock closed 13.5%% above IPOprice vs. 1.6% gain in the S&P), we believe OnDeck has a unique growthopportunity within the fin tech sector. In our view, t he companys easy -to-useonline platform coupled with next-gen underwriting models position the companyto take the previously underserved SMB lending market by storm. Althoughbanks have major competitive advantages in scale, funding, and distribution,

    ingenuity and innovation have been regulated away post-crisis, leaving SMBswith even fewer options. While the success of OnDeck and the leading P2Plender is attracting attract competing tech-enabled competitors, we believeOnDeck s first mover advantage and relentless reinvestment in its data-drivenunderwriting models will help OnDeck maintain its wide lead over the mediumterm. Indeed, we see significant growth ahead and with OnDeck keeping mostloans (75%) on balance sheet, it should generate rapid earnings growth as thecompany scales. While the downside is significant credit and funding risk, webelieve the tremendous growth opportunity outweighs credit/funding concerns atleast in the current benign credit environment. As such, we are initiatingcoverage of OnDeck with a Buy rating and a $28 target price based on 20x our2017 EBITDA estimate.

    PositivesNext-gen underwriting key competitive advantage. OnDeck uses traditionaldata like daily bank account transaction history and credit reports as well as non-traditional data sources like Yelp reviews to predict credit quality and ferret outfraud. Unlike many traditional SMB lenders, OnDeck focuses heavily onborrowers business and its relative financial health rather than personal credit.OnDeck s fifth generation credit model and proprietary OnDeck S core nowincludes more than 10,000 raw inputs from over 100 data sources and can score99% of applicants. With each successive improvement, OnDeck can now slicecredit 2x better than FICO and has yielded stable, predictable losses (6%-8%) inevery quarterly vintage since the recession..

    Substantial growth opportunity. Despite supposed political and regulatorysupport, SMB lending is still a significantly underserved market. For banks,SMBs are often not worth the effort due to the smaller loan sizes and expensivemanual underwriting and with rising regulatory requirements, small loans are ashrinking part of banks balance sheets . For the borrower, bank loans areincredibly time consuming and inefficient, taking an average of 26 hours of theSMBs precious time despite only a 50% approval rate and 4-6 weeks to close.Nonbank alternatives are often exceedingly expensive with short-term optionssuch as MCAs often carrying effective APRs well above 100%.

    For many of the 28mm small businesses in the U.S., this is simply not worth itand SMBs too often fall back on personal credit (cards, home equity) or chosenot to even try to get the capital they need to grow their businesses. OnDeckbelieves there is $80B-$120B of unmet demand for SMB loans/lines of credit ontop of the $178B currently outstanding. With less than $0.5B on balance sheettoday, we see massive potential for OnDeck s revolutionary solution and notethan even in our bull case scenario, OnDecks loan portfolio grows to $3.4B by2020, just 1% market share.

    OnDeck s Uber -like experience. Small business owners are busy running theirrespective businesses, and spending time going back and forth with the bank isantiquated and incredibly inconvenient. OnDeck s easy-to-use online platformallows the business owner to privately apply for a loan online, 24 hours a day,and get a decision in a little as 15 minutes. For the roughly two-thirds ofapplicants that are auto-scored with no manual underwriting, many qualify forsame day funding a transformational improvement relative to legacycompetitors. Willing to pay for this convenience. Importantly, unlike many Internetdisruptors from Amazon and Xoom, OnDeck is about convenience, not price.Indeed, for the vast majority of customers, they only apply to OnDeck since itsso convenient. This accessibility comes at a price, however, with effective APRsthat make OnDeck s interest rates look egregious and predatory (often over50%). However, APR is not the right calculation as rates are exaggerated by theshort duration of the loans (4-5 months). Rather, short-term SMB lendingproducts are typically priced on a cents on dollar basis . While OnDeck s ratesare still very expensive relative to banks (4%-15% APRs), its customers areclearly willing to pay for the convenience as evidenced by the companys risingrepeat business (loans/customer now over 2.0) and impressive Net PromoterScore (71). We also note that this is not because borrowers are unaware of the

    high APRs since OnDeck s disclo sure is clear and upfront about its pricing.

    Short duration, daily collection reduces risk through cycle. With such higheffective APRs, OnDeck appears to be taking excessive risk especially since,unlike many alt-lending peers, the company keeps most loans (and credit risk) onbalance sheet. Credit risk is also magnified by sourcing loans online, whichtends to be a riskier channel (easy to loan shop, fraud).

    OnDeck mitigates these risks not only through sophisticated, data-drivenunderwriting, but also with product design and collections. On the product side,OnDeck reduces SMB lending risk by only offering short-term loans (3-24months) with an average term of 10-11 months. Combined with daily ACH

    collection on its loans (straight from the borrowers business checking accountthat was used to underwrite the loan), OnDeck gets timely early warnings onrepayment issues and can respond quicker than traditional competitors. Thisserved the company well during the 2008-2009 recession as losses remainedbelow 10% despite unprecedented economic conditions.

    Unparalleled resilience. When specialty finance companies fail, it is almost

    always because unforeseen credit problems choke off funding due to shrinkingexcess spread in the warehouse lines and securitizations. While OnDeck isrelying on the same wholesale funding, we believe its model is structurallysuperior. With massive 40+% excess spreads (50+% yields, sub-10% losses)and short loan durations, we expect OnDeck to retain access to funding in all butthe harshest loss scenarios (~25%). We note that in our more modest recessionscenario, OnDeck remains profitable and well capitalized even as losses spike tonearly 20%.

    Figure 4: OnDeck Remains Profitable Even In Recession Scenario

    OnDeck is not a bank. Given the significant regulatory headaches that come

    with a bank charter, we view the companys non -bank status as a significantpositive and competitive advantage. Although bank deposits are clearly a moresecure source of funding, we expect OnDeck to SMB focused non-bank lendershave long escaped regulatory scrutiny and we do not expect this to changeanytime soon (the C in CFPB stands for consumer). More importantly, regulatorshave become increasingly involved with bank underwriting processes underDodd-Frank and we think it is increasingly difficult for banks to follow OnDeckslead in nontraditional, data-driven underwriting.

    Growing, sustainable lead. Although banks should at some point catch up andthere are already a host of start-ups targeting SMBs, we believe OnDeck has asubstantial lead with over 7 years of SMB lending experience and continuousreinvestment in its underwriting models. While a major P2P player recentlystarted offering SMB loans, it only has 9 months of data so it will be starting slowand targeting much higher quality borrowers. The SMB market is not only highlyfragmented with plenty of room for more competition (just 1% market share in our2020 bull case), these borrowers are also hard to reach and we believeOnDeck s growth could accelerate with key partnerships and growing brandrecognition. Combined, we are quite bullish on origination growth and see newloan generation topping $10B in our 2020 bull case scenario.

    Concerns

    OnDeck is a wholesale-funded, balance-sheet lender in a high risksegment. History has not been kind to fast-growing lending start-ups as toomany lost sight of credit quality in a quest for maintaining rapid growth. Just inour career, we have numerous examples including Providian, Countrywide, andNew Century of lenders that were different only to watch a spectacular collapse.

    Unlike traditional Internet/fin tech companies, securitization-funded lenders cantafford to get it wrong because credit mistakes can quickly turn into liquidityproblems as funding tightens up. This often starts a downward spiral as fundingissues force slower origination growth and without fresh loans, credit problemsaccelerate. We truly believe OnDeck is different with an entire culture builtaround credit and a structurally superior product strategy, but it is a riskierfunding model that may be better off as part of a bank long term.

    Growth can obscure true credit performance. With originations growingalmost 100% year over year, traditional credit metrics like delinquencies andcharge-offs are understated as rapidly growing originations of new loans diluteportfolio metrics. While this is less of a concern for OnDeck given the shorterduration, SMB loans are lumpier and more sensitive to macro shocks thanconsumer products and the asset class is very much unproven (OnDeck did firstsecuritization). Fortunately, we have found securitization data more reliable inproviding accurate and timely credit metrics and management has indicated itexpects to be making this data public at least quarterly. While it would certainlybe better to have full monthly details around key metrics like delinquencies,payment rates, and excess spreads, at some point the master trust will growenough to warrant public registration (currently 144A).

    Funding sources could dry up if credit turns. OnDeck currently has threedifferent funding sources including warehouse lines (30%), securitizations (57%),and marketplace (13%). While all are widely available now with credit losses nearhistorical lows, OnDeck s funding is not guaranteed and could be reduced oreven pulled if the economic and/or credit environment were to significantlyworsen. Marketplace is the least reliable source of funding as investors can pullout at any time and for any reason and will likely be the first funding source to dryup if credit were to turn. While marketplace only makes up 13% of funding today,

    management hopes to increase this channel to 25% by the end of 2015. Additionally, while bank warehouse lines are committed facilities, covenants andfinancial triggers are tight so banks can generally reduce or terminate them ifcertain credit covenants/metrics are not met or if the bank decides to reduce itsoverall credit exposure. Finally, the companys recently executed securitizationprovides the most secure source of funding but still relies on investor appetite,which could fall sharply if credit turned.

    Business model unproven through credit cycle. Although OnDeck has theoften-rare benefit of surviving a tough macro cycle and even produced fairlyimpressive credit results during the Great Recession, the company was in itsinfancy and has yet to be truly tested through a credit cycle. The behavior ofSMB credit can be volatile and somewhat unpredictable during times ofeconomic stress. OnDeck has had the good fortune of growing up the past fewyears when credit losses have been near historical lows, but the true metal of theplatform and business model will be how it performs when times get tough and todate that really remains to be seen.

    Rich valuation for a lender. OnDeck currently trades at nearly 18x our 2017EBITDA estimate, not cheap especially for a finance company with balance sheetrisk. In our view, the current valuation reflects not only the current growth rate butalso the tremendous market opportunity that lies ahead. That said, any misstepalong the way could result in a sharp correction/revaluation, and the risk ofowning a stock with such lofty expectations and in turn valuation should not beoverlooked or minimized.

    Given the rapid, tech-driven growth, we also looked at valuation relative tointernet and similar fin tech peers and compared revenue growth to currentEV/EBITDA multiples. Although we had to use OnDecks 2017 estimate, thecompanys current 16.2x EBITDA multiple does not look too far out of linecompared to other fast growing Internet peers. Admittedly, while none of thesecompanies take credit risk and there should be an inherent discount, we note that

    ADS continues to enjoy a rich valuation despite significant consumer credit andfunding risk.Figure 5: Revenue Growth vs. EV/EBITDA

    Scenario Analysis

    With the combination of compelling growth potential and significant macro risk, akey part of our Buy rating is our constructive view of both the upside potentialand perhaps more importantly, OnDecks ability to withstand a significantrecession. In addition to our base earnings forecast, we have built full Bull Caseand Recession scenario s to get a more complete picture of OnDecks potential.

    For the Bull Case, we use the following key assumptions:

    1. Stronger origination growth, reaching $5.5B in 2017, up from $4.5B

    2. Higher top line yields less assumed pricing pressure, 39.7% vs. 37.7%

    3. Limited operating leverage despite faster revenue growth, opex 44.5%vs. .44.6% as faster growth requires significant opex investments

    4. No change to credit provisioning, constant at 6% of originations

    Despite relatively conservative assumptions (3&4), our optimistic model produces

    much stronger profit growth with 2020 EPS of $2.92 vs. $1.89 base and $407Min adjusted EBITDA (vs. $264M). Importantly, due to short duration, the loanbook only reaches $3.4B (1% market share) and our model suggests OnDeckwould not need to raise additional capital to fund this growth.

    Perhaps even more importantly, OnDeck performs admirably in our recessionscenario. Although 2017 EPS drops to just $0.03 (vs. $0.61), earnings growthrebounds quickly as we would expect higher margins on higher quality growthpost-recession. Again, thanks to the short duration, we would expect the portfolio

    to turn over in just a year and by 2020 EPS power should back to base caseestimates.

    For the Recession Case, we use the following key assumptions:

    1. Starting in 1Q17, the economy starts to deteriorate rapidly drivingOnDeck credit losses up to nearly 20% by 4Q17.

    2. OnDeck responds by pulling back on origination growth down to just 5%by 4Q17 vs. 45% in the base case

    3. Reduced origination and tighter credit raise top line yields, up to 41.9%from 37.1% base case

    4. OnDeck pulls back on expenses especially marketing but lowerrevenues drive opex higher 41% vs. 40% base.

    5. OnDeck recovers quickly since it can quickly adjust underwriting andportfolio turns in just 6 months so very profitable post-recession amidlack of competition.

    Key Investment ThemesRecession-Resistant Business ModelOnDeck has a higher risk strategy, but we see many reasons to be optimistic thiscompany is built to survive. It of course starts with revolutionary data-drivenunderwriting but models can break down and often at the worst time recession.We do admit there is a risk OnDeck gets it wrong, but we also see a business

    model that is structurally better protected against credit disasters for severalreasons. First and foremost these are short term loans averaging 10 monthswith 5 month durations so in less than two quarters, OnDeck already has half itsprincipal back. More importantly, with such short loans, OnDeck can quicklylearn from its mistakes and make model corrections.

    Second, OnDeck has an unparalleled early-warning system to spot problemloans before credit issues spiral out of control. OnDeck the only lender we haveever known in almost 17 years covering this sector that requires daily ACHpayments and collections effort start after just three missed payments.Moreover, OnDeck underwriting models continue to monitor the portfoliocompanies after origination and can spot credit stress even before the firstmissed payment. Combined with constant model improvement, OnDeck shouldalways be well ahead of the credit curve especially relative to its competitors.

    Third and most importantly, OnDecks loans are priced to more than account forthe high risk. With massive 40+% excess spreads (50+% yields, sub-10%losses) and short loan durations, we expect OnDeck to retain access to fundingin all but the harshest loss scenarios. We note that losses would have to over20% for a sustainable period before OnDeck would default on its warehouselines and the securitization has even higher thresholds. As such, although arecession or other credit event would be nasty for the stock, we would expectOnDeck to survive and then thrive in the post-recession carnage.

    Strong Consistent Credit Performance In our view, OnDeck s biggest accomplishment has been it s impressive trackrecord underwriting SMB loans. Unlike many of its newly formed competitors,OnDeck started providing loans before the 2008-09 recession with impressiveresults. Indeed, despite mostly third party originations (broker) in the formativeyears, the 2008 vintage had cumulative losses under 10% and losses have beenlower in every cohort since. OnDeck s impressive track record and sophisticatedunderwriting helped the company complete the first securitization in this newsector.

    Continuous Improvement Adds To DifferentiationMore importantly, we expect OnDeck s underwriting models to only get better .The company is highly committed to leveraging new sources of data to improveits ability to predict losses and recently launched its fifth generation model. V5.0can automatically score almost every app received (99%, up from 65% just twoyears ago) and now uses over 100 data sources and up to 10,000 raw attributes,up from 300-400 in 2012. With another year of rapid growth and innovation(originations + 171% YTD), OnDeck has now processed over 4.4M customerpayments only adding to its ability to model credit. Moreover, although OnDeckhas only just started to leverage social data (mostly fraud detection), it is buildinga massive database of indicators just as reviews, check- ins, and +1s. Weexpect OnDeck s sixth generation model next year to represent anothersubstantial leap forward, not only improving its ability to score and predict credit,but also further expand its ability to approve and price a wider range ofborrowers.

    True Innovation and Virtuous Circle Drive Long-Term Potential With continuously improving models on an ever-growing database, we thinkOnDeck has a sustainable competitive advantage. Although OnDeck s successhas spawned a host of alt-lender competitors, we think they will struggle to matchOnDeck s scale and data advantage. Longer term, we expect consolidation asbanks are clearly the better platform given not only their stable deposit fundingand SMB relationships, but also data advantage. We note that some ofOnDeck s most predictive data are the daily inflows and outflows of the SMBs

    business checking accounts. One SMB lending start up told us that 80% of itscustomers had business checking account with a top 10 bank.

    Additionally, iterative, data-driven underwriting should only get better as OnDeckadds new data sources like merchant acquiring data. As the model improves,we expect OnDeck to grow its credit spectrum, especially in longer-term, loweryielding but also lower loss term loans to higher quality borrowers. As OnDecktakes advantage of its substantial head start, we believe its underwritingadvantage should prove sustainable.

    Improving Channel Mix; Deemphasizing Brokers

    SMBs are notoriously hard to reach so historically OnDeck relied heavily onexpensive broker channels to help source loans. However, while brokers canprovide easy access to these SMBs, not only is distribution through brokersexpensive, but the lack of control over the customer experience adds to renewal,credit, and reputation risk. Fortunately, OnDeck has been increasinglydiversifying away from brokers as increased scale and brand recognition haveled to successful strategic partnerships with traditional SMB service providers.These newer partnerships with merchant acquirers as well as banks are ideal asboth have not only SMB access, but also often include valuable underwritingdata.

    While funding advisors (brokers) and strategic partnerships remain importantchannels for OnDeck, its fastest growing channel today is Direct. Importantly,OnDeck leverages technology not just for underwriting but for marketing as it is

    currently tracking over 10mm SMBs for preapprovals. This SMB database allowsOnDeck to directly target SMBs through mail offers and, coupled with nationalradio and television campaigns, connect OnDeck directly with business owners.With higher repeat business, stronger credit performance, and most importantlyno profit sharing with brokers/partners, Direct is OnDecks most profitablechannel and it will be even more so as the business scales.

    Pricing Attractive Even at 50% APRSMB loans have traditionally been quoted on a cents per dollar basis whereborrower pays a fixed amount per dollar borrowed. Given the often short-termnature of the loans, this can make APRs look extraordinarily high (over 50%)when annualized. Despite these high rates, SMBs still benefit as loans pay for

    themselves quickly by driving revenue growth. Typical uses include hiring, buyinginventory, marketing, and expansion. Although we expect pricing and yield totrend lower over time due to a higher percentage of cheaper direct loans (nobroker mark-up) coupled with the ramp of the newer credit line product, we donot expect competition or regulation to put pressure on top-line yields.

    Repeat Business Key Profit DriverOnDeck customer retention is a key indicator of success as the majority ofborrowers borrow again with an average of more than two loans per customer.Repeat loans are available at 50% pay down and are significantly more profitableas the company has already paid to acquire the customer. Despite obvious risks,repeat loans have lower losses as well as higher profits. In our view, thecompanys ability to continue to drive loans per acquired customer higher will notonly increase top-line growth but also boosts operating leverage imbedded in

    OnDecks business model , allowing it to scale faster.Figure 10: Estimated Customer Lifetime Value

    Traditional Specialty Finance Funding Sources OnDeck uses traditional funding sources including warehouse lines andsecuritization. OnDecks f irst securitization transaction in 2Q14 created a new

    ABS category, and a competitor has now followed OnDecks lead. While it stillearly and the asset class needs a lot more history before ratings can increase(currently BBB), we expect better execution on its next securitization, likely mid-2015. OnDeck is also starting to sell more loan production to broaden liquidity,from 13% in 3Q14 growing to an estimated 25% by the end of 2015. Still, weexpect OnDeck to become a major securitization issuer and attract at least oneadditional rating agency to DBRS on its next deal. With a master trust structureto help control duration and reduce issuance costs and a growing track record ofstrong excess spread, we expect securitization to power improving funding costsover time.

    More Risk = More ReturnWhile balance sheet risk will undoubtedly weigh on valuation relative to its P2Pcompetitor, holding loans is significantly more profitable than selling. We estimateunit economics of holding the risk (managed model) vs. selling (serviced model)is more than twice as profitable. In ad dition, although OnDecks rapid growth andbalance sheet strategy normally would require a capital raise to fund growth, weestimate that OnDeck would not need additional capital in either or bull orrecession scenarios because its loans are so short (limiting balance sheetgrowth) and profitable (equity builds fast).

    Estimates and Valuation

    Give n OnDecks current origination growth (150%+) , modeling future earningsestimates is challenging as there is considerable uncertainty about its ability tosustain this pace and other key earnings drivers including yield, funding cost,provisions, and operating leverage . Additionally, GAAP accounting requires thecompany to provide for expected losses at the time the loan is originated, making

    it very difficult to for the company to earn a GAAP profit until origination growthslows to a more reasonable level. As such, we do not currently expect OnDeck tobecome profitable on a GAAP basis until sometime in 2016 (likely 2Q16 basedon current projections). That said, we expect rapid origination growth to drive50%+ revenue growth through at least 2017.

    Our 2015, 2016, and 2017 EPS estimates are -$0.22, $0.86, and $0.61,respectively. Importantly, 2016 estimates are boosted by a one-time $0.62benefit from the DTA reversal. Our revenue estimates of $247mm, $389mm, and$581mm imply growth of 59%, 58%, and 49%, respectively. Despite earningsgrowth muted by high upfront provision expense, top-line growth can acceleraterapidly especially in our bull case where portfolio growth and scale offsets creditcosts.

    Figure 13: Valuation by Scenario, 2017 vs. 2020

    Source: Stifel estimates

    As a result, we think the valuation looks much more attractive, especially on 2020bull case estimates. Granted OnDecks extremely rapid growth makes valuationmore art than science and we admit OnDecks current valuation looks expensiveon traditional metrics. However, we believe the growth potential here is sopowerful that OnDeck can easily grow into this valuation noting that OnDeck

    currently trades at just 4.1x our bull case 2020 EBITDA estimate. If we were touse a more growth appropriate 15x multiple and discount it back, it implies ONDKis worth over $40 per share today even at a steep 15% discount rate. Finally,although we note that our bull case origination growth is somewhat aggressive,we have taken a conservative approach to other key drivers such as provisionexpense and operating leverage, implying even greater upside potential.

    Business Model

    OnDecks business model is rather simple as the company primarily generatesrevenue from interest income, which is derived from the spread between whatOnDeck can charge SMBs it lends to and the cost to borrow those funds fromeither a bank (warehouse line) or investors (securitizations). Additionally, thecompany generates origination fees as well as gains on sale from loans it

    decides not to hold on balance sheet.The companys major expenses are provision expense and eventually lossesfrom loans that default as well as cost to acquire the customer (marketing),investments into the platform and underwriting capabilities (technology), andprocessing and servicing the loans.

    OnDeck offers two products a term loan and a line of credit. Term loans makeup over 90% of revenue today as the line of credit product has been rolled outrecently but over time management expects line of credit to contribute moremeaningfully. The differences in the products are highlighted in the table below.

    Figure 14: Two Key Products

    Source: Company reports

    An important distinction of OnDecks business model that differentiates it fromother lenders is its daily or weekly ACH draft collection process. This not onlyallows OnDeck to know very early on if a customer is having trouble paying backthe loan or line of credit but also gives the customer an Uber-like experience.

    Industry Overview

    Although regulators have been pushing to inc rease banks willingness to lend,loans to SMBs are still shrinking as a percentage of loans. Banks use anantiquated underwriting process that is time-consuming and inefficient. Onaverage, business owners have to apply to three banks, require approximately26 hours of time, and are approved less than 50% of the time.

    Figure 15: SMBs Underserved

    Source: Company reports

    Despite banks failure to serve SMBs, there arent many alternatives . Merchant

    cash advances (MCA) take a cut of credit card receipts but are very expensivewith effective APRs over 100%. SMBs often are forced to use personal lendingproducts such as credit cards/home equity.

    OnDeck fills the gap with reasonably priced short-term loans that undercut MCAsbut are much easier to obtain than a bank loan. OnDeck s proprietary creditengine aggregates and analyzes thousands of data points from unique, disparatedata sources to assess the creditworthiness of small businesses rapidly andmore accurately than traditional underwriting. An entire application can be doneonline in minutes and funded as soon as next day. This quick simple process isa huge competitive advantage over banks that SMBs are willing to pay for.

    Additionally, powered by the Internet, we believe OnDeck has just scratched thesurface of the huge SMB lending opportunity. With 28mm SMBs, it is hard to

    estimate unmet loan demand, but we conservatively estimate OnDeck can groworiginations at least 50% per year through 2017 and likely longer.
