Synchrony Financial (SYF) stock has lagged the broader market over the past year, down 10.6% YTD, while the S&P 500 Index rose 1.3%. Despite reporting better-than-expected Q4 EPS, the company forecast lower 2025 net revenue due to moderating consumer spending and expected Federal Reserve rate cuts. Analysts expect adjusted EPS to decline 1.4% YoY in 2026, but the company has a promising earnings surprise history. SYF stock has a "Moderate Buy" rating overall with a consensus price target of $89.67, representing a 21.3% premium to current levels.
