Navient's stock plummeted 5.23% during intraday trading on Wednesday, following the release of its fourth-quarter 2025 financial results.
The significant drop came after Navient reported quarterly earnings of $0.02 per share, which missed the analyst consensus estimate of $0.31 by 93.63%. The company also reported quarterly sales of $129 million, falling short of the $157.37 million estimate by 18.03% and representing a 3.73% decrease from the same period last year.
While the company swung to a profit from a loss of $0.24 per share a year earlier, the substantial miss on both earnings and revenue expectations appears to have driven the negative market reaction.
