Despite notable short interest, SoFi Technologies continues to outperform expectations, effectively countering bearish sentiment with its stellar performance. SoFi Technologies shows strong growth potential with a 29% upside, supported by impressive Q3 performance and strategic innovation. The company benefits from a rapidly expanding customer base and effective cross-selling strategies.
SoFi is likely to remain a long-term winner, thanks to its profitable and high growth fintech/online bank prospects, on top of the cheap FWD PEG ratio of 0.88x. The management has also achieved the FQ4'24 target of 50:50 revenue mix from Lending segment to Financial Services/Technology Platform segment, demonstrating its fintech prowess. Despite the moderating Net Interest Margins, SOFI has already generated a double beat FQ3'24 performance while raising the FY2024 guidance.
SoFi has been a divisive stock among investors.
SoFi's near term technicals are strong as the chart indicates it is in both an accelerated and more modest uptrend. Its longer term technicals are a bit more mixed but the key signal is that the stock has just recently broken out of a long term downtrend line. SoFi's earnings results have been strong as revenue trends in the right direction and EPS makes further moves into positive territory.
The company has more than a few levers it can pull for growth.
SoFi Technologies exceeded profit expectations in 3Q24, gaining 756,000 new members and raising its EBITDA forecast for the third time. The Financial Services segment grew its contribution profit by nearly 3,000% YoY and saw a 66% increase in net interest income. Although SoFi's forward profit multiple is high at 38.4x, the fintech's strong growth profile, with anticipated profit growth of 145% YoY next year, justifies this valuation.
SoFi Technologies (SOFI) shares have started gaining and might continue moving higher in the near term, as indicated by solid earnings estimate revisions.
