Stonegate Capital Partners has updated its coverage on OppFi, Inc. (NYSE: OPFI) following the company's strong financial performance for fiscal year 2025. OppFi reported record revenue of $597.1 million, representing a 13.5% year-over-year increase. Adjusted net income reached $139.8 million, up 69.1% from the previous year, while adjusted earnings per share increased by $0.64 to $1.59. GAAP net income showed even stronger growth, rising 74.4% to $146.2 million.
The company's performance was driven by several strategic factors, including the implementation of Model 6, broader application of risk-based pricing, and disciplined operational management.

Management demonstrated confidence in the company's financial position by returning capital to shareholders through a $15.5 million share repurchase program executed at an average price of $10.04 per share. An additional $20.9 million remains authorized for future buybacks under the current program.
Stonegate Capital Partners characterized FY25 as a breakout year for OppFi, highlighting the company's stronger scale, pricing discipline, and operating efficiency.

Looking forward, management has provided FY26 guidance that supports continued momentum. The company expects solid growth in the coming year, with recent credit pressure appearing temporary rather than structural in nature. This outlook suggests that OppFi's strategic initiatives have created sustainable improvements in the company's operating model and financial performance.
The implications of OppFi's performance extend beyond the company itself, potentially influencing the broader fintech lending sector. The successful implementation of risk-based pricing and operational discipline demonstrates how technology-driven lenders can achieve profitability while managing credit risk. The company's strong free cash flow generation and capital return program may set expectations for other fintech companies seeking to balance growth with shareholder returns. For investors, OppFi's performance represents a case study in how strategic execution can translate to improved financial metrics across revenue, profitability, and capital management dimensions.
