SOFI Is Down 53% From Its Highs (Here's My Plan)

AI-generated source summary

The video analyzes SoFi (SOFI), noting a significant disconnect between its strong revenue growth (over 40% year-over-year) and its stock price, which has fallen nearly 50% this year. The analysis details Q2 2026 earnings, which beat estimates with $1.21B in revenue versus $1.11B expected, and EPS of $0.12 vs $0.11 expected. However, factors like a higher-than-planned tax rate (700 bps above plan, reducing EPS by $0.05), flat EBITDA guidance despite strong revenue, and a lower CET1 ratio, along with insider selling (CTO sold over 18,000 shares at $17.50 on Sept 21st), have weighed on the stock. The company is currently trading at approximately 22x forward earnings, a compression from the 51x average in late 2023. Analysts are split, with 9 buys, 11 holds, and 3 sells, setting an average target of $22.52, implying a 43% upside. The speaker personally uses covered calls to lower their cost basis, as their effective cost basis is significantly lower than the current market price of $15.76. The key catalyst for future price movement will be whether future earnings match revenue growth, with the next earnings report scheduled for October 27th, estimating $0.17 EPS. The market's current reaction suggests it's not rewarding revenue growth alone, emphasizing the need for profit to catch up.
