Read MoreHide Full Article
LendingClub Corporation (LC - Free Report) is slated to announce fourth-quarter and 2021 results on Jan 26, after market close. Its earnings and revenues in the to-be-reported quarter are expected to have witnessed a year-over-year increase.
In the last reported quarter, the company’s earnings surpassed the Zacks Consensus Estimate. Results were aided by a rise in total net revenues.
LendingClub has an impressive earnings surprise history. Its earnings surpassed the Zacks Consensus Estimate in three and matched in one of the trailing four quarters, with an average surprise of 186%.
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for the company’s fourth-quarter earnings is pegged at 21 cents per share, indicating a significant rise from the prior-year quarter’s reported number. The consensus estimate has been unchanged over the past 30 days.
The consensus estimate for sales of $247.7 million suggests an increase of 226.3% from the previous year.
Other Key Estimates for Q4
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for loan originations is pegged at $3 billion, which indicates a decline of 3.4% from the previous quarter’s reported number. Due to an anticipated fall in total loan originations, origination fees are expected to have been negatively impacted in the quarter. The consensus estimate for the same of $126 million suggests a decline of 2.3% sequentially.
Likewise, the consensus estimate for gain on sales of loans of $8.17 million indicates a fall of 62.7% from the previous quarter’s reported figure.
Nevertheless, the consensus estimate for servicing fees is $22 million, suggesting a rise of 5.7% sequentially. Thus, due to an expected fall in most components of marketplace revenues, total marketplace revenues are anticipated to have been negatively impacted in the fourth quarter.
The consensus estimate for other non-interest income is pegged at $5.44 million, reflecting a decline of 13.9% sequentially.
Management Projections for Q4

Consolidated net income is expected to be $20-$25 million.
