(8min)

Summary

  • I maintain a "Strong Buy" rating on OppFi Inc. due to rising operating leverage, expansive margin growth, and improved unit economics, despite a recent stock correction.
  • OppFi's Q1 FY2025 results exceeded expectations, with record revenues of $140.3 million (+10.1% YoY) and adjusted net income soaring by 285.1% YoY to $33.8 million.
  • The company's raised FY2025 guidance, with adjusted net income now expected at $106-113 million, supports my bullish stance and suggests significant upside potential.
  • Despite a pre-market jump, OPFI stock's valuation remains attractive (forward P/E ~8.64x), with a potential upside of 46–68% based on peer multiples.
  • Reiterating Strong Buy rating: Q1 strength and guidance uplift outweigh macro concerns and GAAP warrant liability noise, highlighting significant undervaluation.
