LendingClub's stock experienced a sharp intraday plummet of 11.85% on Thursday, following the release of its fourth-quarter financial results.
The digital banking platform reported revenue that exceeded analyst expectations, but investor focus shifted to a credit loss provision of $47.2 million for the quarter, which came in above Wall Street estimates. This raised concerns about loan quality and the company's future performance, leading to negative sentiment.
The substantial provision for credit losses appeared to overshadow the positive revenue and earnings beat, driving the stock price downward as markets reacted to the mixed quarterly results.
