Zip Us Launches "In You We Trust," A Brand Platform That Puts Confidence Back in Customers' Financial Decisions Zip Co Limited announced the launch of its new brand platform, "In You We Trust", which articulates Zip's belief in customers' financial choices and guides how the company shows up through its products, policies, and partnerships. The platform launches with "You Trust Me?," a national campaign, developed in partnership with Majority Agency and Noble People, running from February through June 2026. The brand platform was born from real conversations with customers who have often been overlooked by traditional financial systems. In addition to the campaign, Zip's product team has made thoughtful evolutions to the app experience and introduced new payment constructs and features that deepen the trust experience beyond the campaign. The launch campaign recognizes customers as considered and capable financial decision-makers. The creative builds from everyday moments into playfully exaggerated scenarios where customers ask Zip "You Trust Me?" The response is always the same: Zip trusts you with money. The campaign highlights product constructs (from flexible payment dates to clear, upfront fees) designed to enable this trust and features one of Zip's customers, Destiny Modeste, in the campaign's Anthem video, grounding the platform in real customer experiences.

It may also indicate the stock is highly sensitive to market conditions or economic conditions rather than being sensitive to its own business performance, which may also be inconsistent. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risks Share price has been highly volatile over the past 3 months (12% average weekly change).

New major risk - Shareholder dilution The company's shareholders have been substantially diluted in the past year. Increase in shares outstanding: 55% This is considered a major risk. Shareholder dilution occurs when there is an increase in the number of shares on issue that is not proportionally distributed between all shareholders. Often due to the company raising equity capital or some options being converted into stock. All else being equal, if there are more shares outstanding then each existing share will be entitled to a lower proportion of the company's total earnings, thus reducing earnings per share (EPS). While dilution might not always result in lower EPS (like if the company is using the capital to fund an EPS accretive acquisition) in a lot cases it does, along with lower dividends per share and less voting power at shareholder meetings. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risk Shareholders have been substantially diluted in the past year (55% increase in shares outstanding).
