SoFi Technologies also has a full banking license, following the acquisition of Golden Pacific in 2022, which could “provide efficient and sticky funding that reduces revenue/EPS volatility,” the analyst wrote.

“We view SOFI as a long-term winner in the digital lending/neobank space,” mainly due to its focus on prime consumers and now a full banking license, “which we believe provides the company superior unit economics compared to other consumer finance platforms that focus on lower income borrowers and/or lack a banking license,” he added.

“Technology and financial services platforms provide additional opportunities for upside,” Peterson further wrote.

SOFI Price Action: Shares of SoFi Technologies had risen by 3.82% to $7.48 at the time of publication on Wednesday.
