Products per member rose to approximately 1.56 from 1.47 a year earlier.

Anthony Noto, CEO of SoFi, said, “We had exceptional Q3 results against the backdrop of any environment, but they are even more remarkable given how 2026 has unfolded.”

Noto also said, “Our conviction in the opportunity ahead has never been greater.”

The company raised its revenue outlook for 2026. Management now expects adjusted net revenue of approximately $5.04 billion, which implies approximately 40% annual growth.

It also expects adjusted net income of approximately $1.28 billion, a margin of about 20%, and adjusted EPS of approximately 90 cents per share.

The company said it has not reconciled forward-looking non-GAAP measures to their GAAP equivalents, because certain legal, advisory, tax and other costs cannot be predicted with reasonable certainty.

Here's how SoFi's segments did during the quarter:

  • Financial Services: net revenue of $525.1 million vs. $419.6 million a year earlier; contribution profit of $261.0 million vs. $225.6 million

Financial Services net revenue rose 25% year over year, and products in the segment grew 44% to 23.2 million. Revenue per product was $90, up from $88 in the second quarter.

The Loan Platform Business added $153.4 million to consolidated adjusted net revenue. Of that, $151.2 million came from $3.8 billion of loans originated on behalf of third parties and referrals.

Total loan originations reached a record $16.9 billion, up 71% from a year earlier. Personal loan originations were $12.6 billion, up 69%, and student loan volume was $2.9 billion, up 96%.

The personal loan annualized charge-off rate was 2.26%, down 34 basis points from a year earlier. The company said credit performance remained strong.

Technology Platform net revenue fell 24% from a year earlier to $87.4 million, reflecting a large client that fully transitioned off the platform before December 31, 2025. Excluding that impact, segment revenue rose 18%.

Restructuring charges of $2.7 million were tied to a small headcount reduction in the Technology Platform segment. Transaction-related expenses for the nine months were $5.3 million, primarily advisory and professional costs tied to the acquisitions of Composer and Peach.

Total deposits grew $5.8 billion in the quarter to $51.3 billion. Tangible book value per share was $7.48, up from $5.97 a year earlier, a 25% increase.

The company set a 2030 goal of reaching 100 million products. It plans to scale five businesses to more than $1 billion in revenue, five to more than $500 million and five to more than $100 million. Eight of its businesses already generate over $100 million in annualized revenue.

SoFi's adjusted net income was $243.0 million, its 12th consecutive profitable quarter. The company said it achieved a Rule of 40 score of 79, its 20th consecutive quarter meeting that measure.
