SoFi Technologies Reports Strong Q2 Earnings But Faces Valuation Concerns
On July 29, SoFi Technologies (NASDAQ: SOFI) reported adjusted earnings per share of $0.12 and adjusted net revenue of $1.2 billion for the second quarter — both figures exceeded Wall Street estimates. The company also raised its full-year guidance for adjusted net revenue to between $4.75 billion and $4.85 billion, while maintaining EBITDA forecasts. Despite these positive results, SoFi's stock fell nearly 9% following the report due to concerns over valuation and business performance in certain segments. Analysts were divided: some praised balance sheet growth as a strength, while others questioned its sustainability. The lending segment saw strong revenue growth of 63%, but the tech segment declined by 24% year-over-year. Investors remain cautious about SoFi’s stock valuation, which currently trades at over two times tangible book value despite only achieving around 7% return on tangible common equity in H1. Analysts and short-sellers continue to highlight concerns regarding loan margins and the long-term viability of its business model.
