April 25, 2022. SINGAPORE This partnership between the two Singapore firms aims to help accelerate corporates’ journey to carbon neutrality. OCBC Bank and MetaVerse Green Exchange (MVGX), a digital green exchange licensed and regulated by the Monetary Authority of Singapore, have announced a strategic partnership to develop new green financing solutions aimed at accelerating large corporates’ journey to carbon neutrality. Scheduled to be launched later this year, these financing solutions will include tokenised carbon credits in the form of MVGX’s Carbon Neutrality Tokens (CNT™s), for large corporates to offset their carbon emissions, simplifying their path to carbon neutrality. An independent party will verify the expected carbon emissions from projects utilising these financing solutions, to calculate the corresponding carbon credits required. MVGX’s CNT™s are supported by MVGX’s proprietary Non-Fungible Digital Twin (NFDT™) distributed ledger technology that provides corporates a verifiable, immutable and constantly updated record of the carbon performance of the climate-action projects that they have invested in through these digital carbon credits. The partnership comes at an opportune time when carbon credits are becoming an increasingly popular solution for corporates after they have explored other decarbonisation options to achieve carbon neutrality. This is particularly important for companies in hard-to-abate industries such as shipping, steel and energy. By purchasing carbon credits, corporates are also investing in green projects such as reforestation and renewable energy that contribute to future decarbonisation. The Institute of International Finance’s Taskforce on Scaling Voluntary Carbon Markets estimates that the global demand for carbon credits could increase fifteen-fold by 2030. The ability to properly account for and track carbon credits under existing systems has resulted in challenges which have prevented uptake and impact at scale, such as double counting and the difficulties involved with cross-border carbon trading. The CNT™s provided in the new green financing solutions can mitigate these challenges by providing businesses with a reliable and accurate view of their emissions and offsets. “We hope to accelerate these efforts by providing financing solutions with tokenised carbon credits, and expand the reach of private-sector finance in areas and sectors most crucial in mitigating climate change.” Elaine Lam Ms Elaine Lam, Head, Global Corporate Banking, OCBC Bank, said: “With the recently released report by the United Nations' Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), there will be increased urgency in corporates' transition to a low carbon future by cutting down greenhouse gas emissions. We hope to accelerate these efforts by providing financing solutions with tokenised carbon credits, and expand the reach of private-sector finance in areas and sectors most crucial in mitigating climate change.” This partnership underscores the Bank’s commitment to combating climate change and supporting customers in their journey to carbon neutrality, by seizing growth opportunities in green and sustainable financing. By end-2021, the Bank had extended over $34 billion in sustainable financing to customers, surpassing its original target of S$25 billion by 2025 four years ahead of schedule. A new target of S$50 billion in sustainable financing commitments by 2050 has been established. Commenting on the company’s landmark partnership, MVGX Executive Chairman and Co-Founder Bo Bai, said: “Despite the best intentions, governments and businesses around the world have come to realise the limitations of the current systems for tracking and neutralising carbon emissions. Thankfully, there is now a greater urgency to embrace new solutions that leverage technology to promote carbon reduction and finance green initiatives. By joining forces with Southeast Asia’s second-largest bank, we have the opportunity to advance our sustainability ambitions and fast-track our nation’s goal of achieving Singapore’s 2030 Green Plan. We are excited to be building the bridge between green investments in traditional finance and the global carbon trading markets of the future through green digital assets.” Last year, MVGX launched its first batch of CNT™s ahead of COP26 in Glasgow. These asset-backed tokens were tied to carbon credits generated by a wind project in Zhangjiakou, China that was verified and registered with China’s National Carbon Registry. The first tranche of 5,000 carbon credits was sold to a Hong Kong-based private equity firm last year, lowering barriers to access ESG assets for retail and institutional investors in Asia Pacific. Pictured from left to right are: Mr Gabriel Wong, Co-Founder of MVGX; Dr Bo Bai, Executive Chairman and Co-Founder of MVGX; Mr Lee Shyong, Managing Director, Partnership & Innovation of OCBC Bank; and Ms Elaine Lam, Head, Global Corporate Banking of OCBC Bank. This partnership between OCBC Bank and MVGX to develop new green financing solutions with tokenised carbon credits will help accelerate large corporates’ journey to carbon neutrality.

April 28, 2022. MENLO PARK, Calif. Robinhood Markets, Inc. (“Robinhood”) (NASDAQ: HOOD) today announced financial results for the first quarter, which ended March 31, 2022. Total net revenues decreased 43% to $299 million, compared with $522 million in the first quarter of 2021. Transaction-based revenues decreased 48% to $218 million, compared with $420 million in the first quarter of 2021. Options decreased 36% to $127 million, compared with $198 million in the first quarter of 2021. Cryptocurrencies decreased 39% to $54 million, compared to $88 million in the first quarter of 2021. Equities decreased 73% to $36 million, compared with $133 million in the first quarter of 2021. Net loss was $392 million, or $0.45 per diluted share, compared with net loss of $1.4 billion, or $6.26 per diluted share in the first quarter of 2021. Share-based compensation expense totaled $220 million for the first quarter of 2022, compared with $9 million for the first quarter of 2021. Share-based compensation for the first quarter of 2021 related entirely to stock options; no expense relating to restricted stock units was recognized because our initial public offering had not yet occurred. Net loss for the first quarter of 2021 also included total expense of $1.5 billion associated with the change in fair value of convertible notes and warrants issued in February 2021. Adjusted EBITDA (non-GAAP) was negative $143 million, compared with positive $115 million in the first quarter of 2021. Net Cumulative Funded Accounts increased 27% to 22.8 million as of March 31, 2022, compared with 18.0 million as of March 31, 2021 as we added 7.1 million new funded accounts primarily driven by large customer interest in cryptocurrencies during the second quarter of 2021, and 0.7 million resurrected accounts, partially offset by 3.0 million churned accounts. On a sequential basis, Net Cumulative Funded Accounts increased slightly compared with 22.7 million as of December 31, 2021. Churn continues to improve and as a percentage of Net Cumulative Funded Accounts has reached one of the lowest quarterly rates we have seen in years. Monthly Active Users (MAU) decreased 10% to 15.9 million for March 2022, compared with 17.7 million for March 2021 during which we experienced high trading volumes and account sign-ups as well as high market volatility, particularly in certain sectors. On a sequential basis, MAU decreased 8% compared with 17.3 million for December 2021. The sequential decline was primarily attributable to users with lower balances, who are engaging less in the current market environment. Assets Under Custody (AUC) increased 15% to $93.1 billion as of March 31, 2022, compared with $80.9 billion as of March 31, 2021, as result of the growth in our user base. On a sequential basis, AUC decreased 5% compared with $98.0 billion as of December 31, 2021, primarily due to decreasing asset values in this market environment, partially offset by an increase in net deposits of 30%. Average Revenues Per User (ARPU) decreased 62% to $53, compared with $137 in the first quarter of 2021. On a sequential basis, ARPU decreased 18% compared with $64 in the fourth quarter of 2021. The decreases were primarily related to lower transaction-based revenue driven by the current market environment, which had a negative impact on the number of traders and notional trading volumes in all asset classes. Cash and cash equiva lents at March 31, 2022 totaled $6.2 billion, compared with $6.3 billion at March 31, 2021. “We're seeing our customers affected by the macroeconomic environment, which is reflected in our results this quarter.” Jason Warnick "We're seeing our customers affected by the macroeconomic environment, which is reflected in our results this quarter," said Jason Warnick, Chief Financial Officer of Robinhood Markets. "At the same time, we've also made progress on our long-term plans and continue to pursue them aggressively." "This quarter saw our product development engine gain velocity with the rollout of some of our most requested features and capabilities,” said Vlad Tenev, CEO and Co-Founder of Robinhood Markets. “With the introduction of the Robinhood Cash Card, the release of crypto wallets to all customers, the addition of new coins to our platform, and our agreement to acquire Ziglu Limited, we’ve made huge strides against our roadmap. Looking ahead, we have a suite of new products and services slated for release that we believe will excite and delight our customers.” Highlights Robinhood delivers major product developments In March, Robinhood introduced the Robinhood Cash Card - one of the few debit cards to offer rewards similar to what customers have come to expect from a credit card. With the Robinhood Cash Card, customers can round up their spending and receive weekly bonuses for them to invest in stock and crypto. For customers who direct-deposit their paychecks, they can access their money two days early and automatically set aside a portion of their paycheck to invest. Over time, additional features and capabilities will be added to the Cash Card - like Instant Savings, which will give customers discounts on items like gas and groceries. Robinhood also extended trading hours in March, with trading now available from 7 a.m. to 8 p.m. eastern time. This is the first step toward offering 24/7 trading and was one of the top-requested features of Robinhood advanced users. Just this week, Robinhood began rolling out Stock Lending, its fully-paid securities lending product, to a small set of customers. Through Stock Lending, customers have the opportunity to earn extra income on the stocks they already own, empowering them to put their investments to work for them and adding a new source of passive income to their portfolios. Robinhood makes significant strides in its crypto business At the beginning of April, Robinhood rolled out crypto wallets to the approximately two million customers on its waitlist and just this week completed the full roll-out to all customers. In addition, Robinhood recently added four new coins: Compound, Polygon, Solana, and Shiba Inu. New coins are one of the most frequently requested products from Robinhood customers and the company expects to add additional coins over time. Crypto customers will also benefit from Robinhood’s planned integration with the Lightning Network, which will power near-instantaneous Bitcoin transfers globally, with transaction fees of less than a penny. Eventually, this technology, once fully integrated, is expected to help accelerate Robinhood’s ability to serve Bitcoin remittances on a global scale - at virtually no cost - and will be important for international expansion. Robinhood is on track with its 2022 roadmap Last quarter, Robinhood announced an ambitious plan for 2022 focused on long-term investing, spending and savings, helping customers move money faster, and opening up its crypto platform to customers internationally. This month, Robinhood signed an agreement to acquire Ziglu Limited ("Ziglu"), a UK-based electronic money institution and crypto-asset firm, subject to regulatory approvals and other customary closing conditions. Ziglu's impressive team of deeply experienced financial services and crypto experts will help Robinhood accelerate its global expansion efforts and break down barriers for customers across the UK and Europe. Tax-advantaged retirement accounts remain on track, with the goal of providing early access to an initial set of customers later this year. Webcast and Conference Call Information Robinhood will host a conference call to discuss its results at 2 p.m. PT / 5 p.m. ET today, April 28, 2022. The live webcast of Robinhood's earnings conference call can be accessed at investors.robinhood.com, along with the earnings press release and accompanying slide presentation. Following the call, a replay and transcript will also be available at the same website. Monthly Metrics Reports and Financial Outlook Robinhood is going to start reporting certain limited purpose statistical and operational results on a monthly basis. The first report will cover the month of March 2022 (and each of the preceding 12 calendar months) and will be available on the afternoon of April 28, 2022. The report regarding April 2022 will be available in mid-May 2022. These monthly metrics reports ("Reports") will generally be presented without commentary and should be read together with our most recent quarterly and annual results and other filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). Reports will be available for download from the “Overview” tab of our Investor Relations website. We expect that Reports regarding each of the first two months of each fiscal quarter will be available around the middle of the following month. We expect that the Report regarding the third month of each fiscal quarter will be available shortly after our quarterly earnings are announced regarding that completed quarter. Anyone who would like to receive an automatic email alert whenever a new Report is available may sign up on the "Resources" tab of our Investor Relations website. With this change, we no longer intend to provide revenue guidance. Previously we shared that, for fiscal year 2022, we expected total operating expenses, excluding share-based compensation, to increase 15%–20% year-over-year and share-based compensation to decline 35%–40% year-over-year. As a result of our cost reduction initiatives (the “Cost Reduction Initiatives”), which include the reduction in force of approximately 9% of our full-time headcount announced on April 26, 2022 and a reduction to headcount targets for the year, we now expect total operating expenses, excluding share-based compensation, for full year 2022 to increase by approximately 2%–5% year-over-year and share-based compensation to decline by approximately 42%–47% year-over-year, in each case before giving effect to the restructuring impacts described below. Additionally, we anticipate recording a restructuring benefit of approximately $7–$19 million in the second quarter of 2022, composed of $17–$23 million of cash restructuring and related charges, offset by $30–$36 million from reversals of previously recognized share-based compensation. Actual results might differ materially from our outlook due to several factors, including the rate of growth in net new funded accounts which affects several costs including variable marketing costs, the degree to which we are successful in preventing fraud, our ability to manage web-hosting expenses efficiently, and our ability to achieve productivity improvements in customer service, among other factors.

May 12, 2022. MELBOURNE. Disciplined execution on the Group’s strategy including continued growth across CommBank’s core banking businesses and sound credit quality underpinned the latest quarterly performance. Continuing focus on disciplined operational performance coupled with volume growth across the Group’s core banking businesses has seen Commonwealth Bank deliver an unaudited cash profit of $2.4 billion for the third quarter of the 2022 financial year. The Bank’s result included a steady operating performance and volume growth compared to the quarterly average of the first half of FY22. This was led by household and business deposits (up $8.5 billion and $2.2 billion respectively), home lending (up $6.9 billion) and business lending (up $3 billion). Operating expenses were 2 per cent lower. The outcome also reflected the continued improvement in economic conditions as the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic fades and investment picks-up, particularly in the business sector and as a consequence of higher government and consumer spending. “Looking ahead, we are well positioned to support business investment to build Australia’s future economy” Matt Comyn Matt Comyn, CBA’s CEO said: “The March quarter underlined the disciplined execution of the Group’s strategy, focused on our core banking franchises, which delivered continued volume growth, sound portfolio credit quality and ongoing support for our customers and communities, in particular to those most affected by extreme weather events in many parts of the country including the catastrophic East Coast floods and WA bushfires.” Another feature of the quarter was the Group’s strong balance sheet settings, a period in which CBA paid $3 billion in half-year dividends to shareholders, added Mr Comyn. As for the previously announced on-market share buy-back of up to $2 billion, this will be conducted across the remainder of the 2022 calendar year. In the meantime, CBA last week obtained regulatory approval from the China Banking and Insurance Regulatory Commission in respect of the partial sale of shares in the Bank of Hangzhou, a transaction that was disclosed in March. “Looking ahead, we are well positioned to support business investment to build Australia’s future economy,” said Mr Comyn. “Through disciplined execution of our strategic agenda, we will continue to deliver for our customers, communities and shareholders as we build tomorrow’s bank today.” Loan impairment expenses remained low in the quarter to 31 March 2022 with a lower level of troublesome and impaired assets as a proportion of Total Committed Exposures (TCE), down $200 million in the quarter to $6.6 billion or 0.51 per cent of TCE. Consumer arrears, as measured by payments by customers on personal loans, credit card borrowings and home loans that are outstanding by three months or more, remained low. Total credit provisions amounted to $5.7 billion as the group continues to adopt a cautious approach to managing potential risks, including higher interest rates, inflationary pressures and supply chain disruptions. “Through disciplined execution of our strategic agenda, we will continue to deliver for our customers, communities and shareholders as we build tomorrow’s bank today.” Matt Comyn The Group’s Common Equity Tier 1 (Level 2) ratio, which is the measurement used by regulators to gauge the financial strength of banks, stood at 11.1 per cent at the end of the quarter. This was down slightly since the half year result after taking into account the payment of $3 billion in dividends to the Group’s 870,000 shareholders. Operationally, the combination of growth and higher non-interest income, driven in part by Treasury earnings, helped offset a lower net interest margin (NIM) caused by elevated swap rates, mix effects and on-going lending competition. Volume growth saw business lending grow at ~1.5 times system during the 12 months to March, household and business deposits was above system and home lending in line with system.

Family monthly active people (MAP) – MAP was 3.64 billion as of March 31, 2022, an increase of 6% year-over-year. Facebook daily active users (DAUs) – DAUs were 1.96 billion on average for March 2022, an increase of 4% year-over-year.

Capital expenditures – Capital expenditures, including principal payments on finance leases, were $5.55 billion for the first quarter of 2022. Share repurchases – We repurchased $9.39 billion of our Class A common stock in the first quarter of 2022. As of March 31, 2022, we had $29.41 billion available and authorized for repurchases. Cash and cash equivalents and marketable securities – Cash and cash equivalents and marketable securities were $43.89 billion as of March 31, 2022. Headcount – Headcount was 77,805 as of March 31, 2022, an increase of 28% year-over-year. CFO Outlook Commentary We expect second quarter 2022 total revenue to be in the range of $28-30 billion. This outlook reflects a continuation of the trends impacting revenue growth in the first quarter, including softness in the back half of the first quarter that coincided with the war in Ukraine. Our guidance assumes foreign currency will be approximately a 3% headwind to year-over-year growth in the second quarter, based on current exchange rates. In addition, as noted on previous calls, we continue to monitor developments regarding the viability of transatlantic data transfers and their potential impact on our European operations, and we are pleased with the progress on a political agreement. We expect 2022 total expenses to be in the range of $87-92 billion, lowered from our prior outlook of $90-95 billion. We expect 2022 expense growth to be driven primarily by the Family of Apps segment, followed by Reality Labs. We expect 2022 capital expenditures, including principal payments on finance leases, to be in the range of $29-34 billion, unchanged from our prior estimate. Absent any changes to U.S. tax law, we expect our full-year 2022 tax rate to be above the first quarter rate and in the high teens. "We made progress this quarter across a number of key company priorities and we remain confident in the long-term opportunities and growth that our product roadmap will unlock," Mark Zuckerberg Webcast and Conference Call Information Meta will host a conference call to discuss the results at 2 p.m. PT / 5 p.m. ET today.
