[OppFi](https://www.bullished.co/tag/opfi/), which runs a digital lending platform that helps community banks extend credit to consumers, said third-quarter revenue fell 3.8% to [$149.2 million](https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/0001818502/000181850226000084/opfi-20260930earningsrel.htm?ref=bullished.co) and lowered the top end of all three of its 2026 targets. Net income dropped 54.6% to $34.5 million, the company reported in an [8-K](https://www.bullished.co/learn/8-k-items-explained/) filing.

## Losses ate into a smaller revenue base

Adjusted net income, a measure that strips out items such as warrant-value swings and deal costs, [fell 22.5%](https://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/oppfi-reports-third-quarter-2026-results-302921380.html?ref=bullished.co) to $31.6 million. Adjusted earnings per share slipped to $0.37 from $0.46 a year earlier.

Net charge-offs, loans written off as uncollectible net of recoveries, rose to 40.1% of revenue from 35.1%. The company said elevated charge-offs more than offset a 38% increase in recoveries of previously written-off loans, which reached $15.2 million.

Total net originations fell 6.8% to $229.3 million, which the company attributed to tighter screening criteria for marketing partners. Ending receivables dropped 4.7% to $458.6 million, and average yield eased to 131.4% from 133.2%.

The prior-year net income comparison is flattered by a $31.7 million warrant gain in last year's quarter, against $2.8 million this time.

## A lower ceiling on the full-year targets

OppFi now expects 2026 revenue of $600 million to $610 million, adjusted net income of $115 million to $120 million and adjusted earnings per share of $1.34 to $1.40\. The [earnings presentation](https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/0001818502/000181850226000084/a2026q3earningspresentat.htm?ref=bullished.co) shows the top ends cut from $625 million, $130 million and $1.51.

For the first nine months, [revenue rose 1.9%](https://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/oppfi-reports-third-quarter-2026-results-302921380.html?ref=bullished.co) to $446.3 million while adjusted net income fell 20.7% to $90.4 million.

## Line of credit, buybacks and cash

OppFi makes its money as a service provider to partner banks, which fund the loans. It launched a line of credit product in the quarter, and all new customers now run through its new application system, LOLA. CEO and Executive Chairman Todd Schwartz said the company is "building a more diversified, technology- enabled financial platform."

The company repurchased $6.7 million of stock in the quarter under a $40 million authorization, and $17.9 million in the first nine months at an average $8.91 a share. Free cash flow, a non-GAAP measure, reached $107.5 million for the nine months, up from $66.1 million a year earlier.

Cash and restricted cash stood at $140.7 million at September 30, and OppFi cited about $690.7 million in total funding capacity. It also has a proposed acquisition of BNCCORP pending.

Management discusses the outlook and the line of credit rollout on its earnings call Wednesday at 8:30 a.m. ET.
