SOFI May Deliver Strong Segmental Growth
We expect a significant year-over-year improvement in the company’s top line in the to-be-reported quarter, driven by healthy business from the Financial Services, Lending and Technology Platforms segments.
The consensus estimate for Financial Services revenues is pegged at $446 million, indicating 74% year-over-year growth. The consensus mark for Lending revenues is pegged at $488 million, indicating 17% year-over-year growth. The Technology Platform segment is expected to grow 12%.
Investment Considerations
SoFi’s stock performance shows a mix of strength and recent hesitation. Shares are up 60.5% over the past year, but the 14% decline over the last three months suggests a period of consolidation after a strong run.

The company has made solid progress with its asset-light platform, reducing reliance on traditional lending and strengthening its position in consumer finance. That said, much of this optimism now appears reflected in the stock price. Valuation remains elevated, with SoFi trading at aforward 12-month Price/Earnings ratio of 42.51X forward earnings, which is way higher than the industry’s average of 21.6X.
As expectations reset, the stock may struggle to move meaningfully higher in the near term. A Zacks Rank #3 supports a more cautious, wait-and-see stance as investors digest valuation levels. You can see the complete list of today’s Zacks #1 Rank (Strong Buy) stocks here.
As SoFi feels a bit expensive right now, Block (XYZ - Free Report) and Upstart (UPST - Free Report) may offer better value. Block, trading at a forward P/E of 20.24X, stands out for its diversified ecosystem, including Cash App and Square. Investors value Block for its balanced revenue streams and long-term fintech vision. In a choppy market, XYZ may offer steadier ground.
Meanwhile, Upstart, with a forward P/E of 16.94X, continues to lean into its AI-driven lending platform. Though UPST has faced volatility, it remains a strong contender if credit conditions stabilize. For those seeking growth at more grounded valuations, both Block and UPST deserve consideration while SoFi cools off.
