SOFI--
Christiansen highlighted four key areas contributing to SoFi's growth. First, private credit is fueling SoFi's high-margin loan platform. Second, consumer credit trends remain stable, providing stability to the business. Third, the company's technology business is set to expand in 2026, aided by a new client expected to contribute about 10% of revenue. Finally, the return of crypto products is expected to boost engagement and deposits, further enhancing profitability [3].
The analyst also noted that SoFi's forward flow deals have helped grow membership and margins. He projects adjusted net revenue of $3.43 billion for FY25, adjusted EBITDA of $975 million, and GAAP net income of $388 million. For FY26, he expects adjusted EBITDA of $1.42 billion and GAAP net income of $700 million [3].
Wall Street remains sidelined on SoFi Technologies stock, with a Hold consensus rating based on seven Buys, 10 Holds, and four Sell recommendations. The average stock price target is $20.79, indicating a 7.6% downside risk from current levels [3].
