COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Legal Proceedings — From time to time the Company is subject to legal proceedings and claims in the ordinary course of business. The results of such matters often cannot be predicted with certainty. In accordance with applicable accounting guidance, the Company establishes an accrued liability for legal proceeding and claims when those matters present loss contingencies which are both probable and reasonably estimable. All such liabilities arising from current legal matters, to the extent such matters existed, have been recorded in accrued expenses and other liabilities on the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets and these matters are immaterial.

Contractual Obligations and Commitments — From time to time, the Company enters into a purchase commitment with our third-party cloud computing web services providers. As of September 30, 2025, the total remaining contractual obligations from this purchase commitment are approximately $12.3 million, of which $6.3 million is for the next 12 months. The Company may pay more than the minimum purchase commitment based on usage. Additionally, the Company has contractual obligations related to its lease for corporate office space. See Note 7 for details regarding when these obligations are due.

In October 2024, the Company completed the acquisition of Theorem Technology, Inc. (“Theorem”), a Silicon Valley-based institutional asset manager focused exclusively on the consumer credit space, managing assets for global institutional investors since its founding in 2014. The Company acquired 100% of Theorem’s equity for approximately $17.5 million, consisting of $10.0 million cash and 504,440 of the Company’s Class A Ordinary Shares ($7.5 million worth as of the closing date), with an additional contingent consideration based on achievement of certain performance objectives defined in the purchase agreement. The Company established contingent consideration liability is reported at fair value, which is determined based on the present value of an expected payment under the arrangement, using an option pricing model based on a number of assumptions, including certain unobservable assumptions discounted at an estimated market interest rate. The fair value of the liability is updated each reporting period, with changes in fair value reported within “Other expenses, net.” The fair value of the contingent consideration liability was $0.3 million and $6.1 million as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively.

Guarantees and Indemnifications In the ordinary course of business, the Company may provide indemnifications or loss guarantees of varying scope and terms to customers and other third parties with respect to certain matters, including, but not limited to, losses arising out of breach of such agreements, services to be provided by the Company or from intellectual property
infringement claims made by third parties. These indemnifications may survive termination of the underlying agreement and the maximum potential amount of future indemnification payments may not be subject to a cap.

For our forward flow agreements, loans purchased have a contractual performance requirement which is measured periodically over the life of the underlying loans. If the loan’s performance is below the contractual requirement, the counterparty may have first loss up until a contractual agreed limit. If the loans’ performance is below the counterparty’s first loss limit or if there is no first loss limit, then Pagaya would be required to make a payment to the counterparty such that the loans purchased would have achieved the contractual performance requirement. There is a contractual maximum loss for Pagaya’s loss protection with the counterparty taking full risk of loss beyond Pagaya’s loss protection. Our guarantee of contractual loss protection for the buyer meets the accounting definition of a derivative, and therefore we recognize, at inception and each reporting period, a liability for the fair value of the estimated loss protection payments, if any.

As of September 30, 2025, there have been no known events or circumstances that have resulted in a material indemnification liability and the Company did not incur material costs to defend lawsuits or settle claims related to these indemnifications. As of September 30, 2025, the unfunded maximum potential amount of undiscounted future payments the Company could be required to make under these guarantees totaled $104.9 million. Additionally, in accordance with the guarantee contracts, the Company is required to fund segregated cash balances to provide protection in the event the Company is not able to meet its contractual commitments. As of September 30, 2025, $39.9 million has been segregated and recognized within restricted cash and cash equivalents, of which $8.4 million has been accrued within accrued expenses and other liabilities in the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet in accordance with these contractual requirements.
