NEW YORK , June 23, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Findell Capital Partners, LP, (together with its affiliates, "Findell," "we" or "us") one of the largest stockholders of Oportun Financial Corporation (NASDAQ: OPRT) ("Oportun" or the "Company"), today issued a rebuttal presentation correcting false and misleading statements made in the Company's June 18^th presentation.

Earlier today, Oportun Founder and former CEO James Gutierrez released an open letter to stockholders: see here . In the letter, Mr. Gutierrez expressed support for Findell's case for boardroom change at Oportun, writing that "Findell Capital has accurately diagnosed the root causes of this [valuation] gap and offered a smart, focused plan to restore value."
