Read MoreHide Full Article
Have you been eager to see how Ally Financial Inc. (ALLY - Free Report) performed in Q3 in comparison with the market expectations? Let’s quickly scan through the key facts from this Detroit, Michigan-based automotive financial services company’s earnings release this morning:
An Earnings Miss
Ally Financial came out with adjusted earnings of 56 cents per share, lagging the Zacks Consensus Estimate of 59 cents.
Escalated expenses and higher provision for loan losses were largely responsible for this earnings miss.
How Was the Estimate Revision Trend?
You should note that the earnings estimate revisions for Ally Financial depicted a bullish stance to the earnings release. The Zacks Consensus Estimate has increased nearly 1% over the last 30 days.
Moreover, Ally Financial has a decent earnings surprise history. Before posting the earnings miss in Q3, the company delivered positive surprises in two of the trailing four quarters, with an average beat of 0.09%.
Ally Financial posted total net revenues of $1.38 billion, which outpaced the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $1.37 billion.
Key Developments
Consumer auto originations of $9.3 billion
Retail deposit growth of 19% year over year to $63.9 billion
Net financing revenue of $996 million, up 3% year over year
What Zacks Rank Says
The estimate revisions that we discussed earlier have driven a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold) for Ally Financial. However, since the latest earnings performance is yet to be reflected in the estimate revisions, the rank is subject to change. While things apparently look unfavorable, it all depends on what sense the just-released report makes to the analysts.
