Robinhood's higher revenue and EPS make it clearly stronger than SoFi on these earnings. SoFi's post-earnings rally is unlikely to hold; its shares are headed for single digits. x.com x.comÂ
SoFi's egregious dilution means business growth may fail to benefit existing shareholders. Its share count rose 61% over five years, reducing an original 1% stake to about 0.6%; even 61% earnings growth could leave earnings per share flat. As a bank, SoFi is already practically uninvestable by these standards, though dilution need not destroy value if the capital raised creates more value than the ownership surrendered. x.comÂ
SoFi's newly reported growth widens the gap between its operating results and a selloff driven by interest-rate fears. Revenue grew 45%, EPS 67% and members 35%, while the stock had fallen nearly 50%; the business is seen as able to succeed across rate environments. x.comÂ
SoFi's app is poor by the standards of modern financial-services apps, which makes the stock hard to justify owning right now. Investors should know a company's products before investing in it. x.comÂ
SoFi is struggling and its leadership's blockchain push looks like a substitute for a real plan. CEO Anthony Noto calls blockchain the fix for archaic financial infrastructure, but SoFi is caught between sector rotation and agentic AI. Bulls cite $1.2B of net revenue, a pre-operating-expense metric, yet SoFi's profit margin is about 14% versus Robinhood's 42%, and it spends about 4x as much on sales and marketing. Its new stablecoin launched with a $60k transaction, years behind Circle. x.com … Show more
SoFi's stronger revenue and earnings growth makes it worth staying with for at least another quarter. Per amitisinvesting, Q3 revenue rose 44% and adjusted EPS 64%, with 2027 revenue and EPS guidance above estimates. It still needs to show it can sustain the trajectory. x.com x.com x.comÂ
SoFi's dilution and significant premium to book value versus banks and other financial institutions make it the holding to remove from the portfolio. x.comÂ
SoFi's CEO Anthony Noto is pitching a valuation the business does not justify. On a podcast he suggested SoFi should not trade at 2x tangible book or less, alluding to American Express's 5-6x peaks and JPMorgan's roughly 2.8x, yet no bank matches JPMorgan's size, scale and safety, and SoFi already trades near 2.25-2.3x. SoFi is second best or worse at everything and first at nothing, student loan refinancing is still a big slice, its credit card is uncompetitive, and savings are commoditized. … Show more
Dave trades at a premium despite looking less exciting and less stable than SoFi or Chime, a case of the market chasing momentum and charts over fundamentals. SoFi is the best of the three, with nearly twice their growth and profitability. x.comÂ
Robinhood offered a much better risk profile than SoFi, with many chances this year to buy it in the $70s and even $60s. SoFi may ultimately work, but its path to execution is less clear, and a piece by nanalyzetweets lays out harsh truths about it that much of X doesn't want to admit. x.comÂ
