LendingClub's stock experienced a 24-hour plunge of 5.47%, reflecting negative investor sentiment following the company's latest earnings release.
The digital banking platform reported fourth-quarter revenue of $266.5 million, exceeding the Ibes estimate of $262.3 million, and posted earnings per share of $0.35. However, investor focus shifted to the company's credit loss provision of $47.2 million for the quarter, which came in above Wall Street estimates and raised concerns about loan quality and future performance.
The substantial provision for credit losses appeared to overshadow the positive revenue and earnings beat in after-hours trading, driving the stock price downward as markets reacted to the mixed quarterly results.
