Q2 Announces 2022 Environmental, Social and Corporate Governance (ESG) Report

The second annual report highlights how Q2 is fulfilling its mission, building a culture for positive change and addressing ESG opportunities

Q2 Holdings, Inc. (NYSE: QTWO), a leading provider of digital transformation solutions for banking and lending, today released its second annual Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) report. The report highlights how the company addresses the top ESG priorities that matter to its employees, customers, partners, and other stakeholders.

For the past 17 years, Q2 has pursued its mission to build strong and diverse communities by strengthening the financial institutions that serve them. With this mission in mind, Q2 set out to empower banks and credit unions to accelerate their digital transformation by introducing Q2 Innovation Studio, a state-of-the-art portfolio of technologies that opens the Q2 digital banking platform. The company also launched Helix, Q2’s banking-as-a-service platform, to make finance human and address the needs of the underserved. This focus on innovation, coupled with Q2’s efforts to support environmental, social, and governance issues, has resulted in a more equitable, diverse, and innovative company.

“We are excited about the tangible progress we made in 2021 on our environmental, social and governance initiatives. Our guiding principles are foundational to how we operate and grow our business and fulfill our mission to strengthen communities,” said Matt Flake, CEO, Q2. “Future innovation, customer success and sustainability will be best served through the ideas and experiences of a diverse workforce. Continuing to foster an inclusive culture will ensure our growth and performance are aligned with the values and expectations of our stakeholders.”

Among the priority areas addressed in this report are the following:

• Financial institutions, fintech companies, and innovative brands are converging to create unique products for their customers. In 2021, Q2 announced the launch of its Q2 Innovation Studio, a portfolio of technologies and programs that capitalizes on this convergence by enabling banks and credit unions to design, develop and distribute innovative digital banking products, services, and features.
