In a turbulent market environment, SoFi Technologies Inc. (NASDAQ:SOFI) stock has reached a 52-week low, dipping to $6.03. The fintech company, which has been grappling with a challenging economic landscape, has seen its shares significantly retreat from higher levels over the past year. Investors have been cautious as the broader tech sector faces headwinds from rising interest rates and regulatory scrutiny. The 1-year change data for Social Capital Hedosophia V , which brought SoFi public through a SPAC deal, underscores the downturn with a stark 30% decline. This latest price level reflects investor sentiment and market conditions that continue to test the resilience of tech-focused financial services firms like SoFi.

In other recent news, SoFi Technologies reported a record-breaking adjusted net revenue of $597 million for Q2 2024, marking a 22% year-over-year increase. The company also noted its third consecutive quarter of GAAP profitability, with a net income of $17 million. Notably, the Financial Services segment's revenue surged by 80% year-over-year, while the Tech Platforms segment saw a 9% increase.

SoFi added 643,000 new members, growing the total to 8.8 million, and increased products by 946,000 to 12.8 million. The company's lending segment also showed strong performance with personal loan originations at $4.2 billion. Despite overall growth, lending in personal loans showed limited expansion due to macroeconomic concerns.

SoFi provided positive guidance for Q3 and full-year 2024, with adjusted net revenue expected to reach up to $2.465 billion and GAAP net income up to $185 million. The company also forecasts Q3 adjusted net revenue of $625-645 million, adjusted EBITDA of $160-165 million, and GAAP net income of $40-45 million.

However, the Credit Card and Invest businesses are currently operating at a $100 million annualized loss. Despite this, SoFi remains confident in its diversified revenue streams and cost-efficient capital sources, which are expected to drive continued growth. These are the recent developments in SoFi Technologies' financial performance.
