Current thesis
The bull case strengthened modestly after Q1: Better exceeded its own prior volume range, grew revenue 52% year over year, improved adjusted EBITDA loss to about $19 million from $36 million, and reaffirmed breakeven by end-Q3 2026, which supports the view that Tinman and HELOC/product mix can drive operating leverage.

Confirming evidence

  • • Execution risk remains around the planned sale of the U.K.-based bank and the classification of that business as discontinued operations. [#8-K-2026-05-07]
  • • GAAP profitability is still distant: Q1 net loss widened year over year despite better revenue and adjusted EBITDA trends. [#8-K-2026-05-07]
  • • The bear case remains material because GAAP net loss widened to $70 million, discontinued operations tied to the U.K.
