On August 13, Nu Holdings Ltd. rose 3.2% in after-hours trading, trading at $14.25/share, with turnover of $9.14 million. The move came immediately following the company's scheduled post-market earnings release for the quarter.
Market consensus ahead of the report projected quarterly revenue of approximately $5.227 billion, representing 38.44% year-over-year growth; adjusted earnings per share of $0.20, up 55.25% year-over-year; and EBIT of $1.363 billion, a 54.36% annual increase. Institutional sentiment was broadly optimistic heading into the print, with analysts polled by FactSet maintaining an average overweight rating and a mean price target of $17.43.
Multiple catalysts supported buying interest, including a previously approved $1 billion share repurchase program and the acquisition of an additional banking license in Brazil in July, which expanded Nubank's regulatory footprint. Lone Pine Capital also disclosed a 28.3% increase in its stake to 38 million Class A shares earlier this year, signaling continued institutional confidence in the company's growth trajectory.
