On August 27, Affirm Holdings, Inc. rose 10.57% in after-hours trading, trading at $84.24/share, with turnover of $59.34 million. The surge was driven by the company's fiscal Q4 earnings release that exceeded market expectations, coupled with the appointment of Michael Linford as President effective August 27.
Ahead of the report, consensus estimates projected quarterly revenue of approximately $1.106 billion (up 32.08% year-over-year) and EPS of $0.34. Multiple institutions had anticipated an upside beat, with Morgan Stanley citing Bloomberg observed-sales data suggesting fiscal Q4 gross merchandise volume growth could reach approximately 34%, well above the consensus estimate of around 29%. Oppenheimer similarly expected Q4 GMV growth of 30% to $13.5 billion, at the high end of the company's guidance range.
Supporting the broader growth trajectory, Affirm recently expanded its credit facility to $675 million with maturity extended to June 2029, renewed a $1.7 billion loan purchase agreement with CPP Investments, and launched payment integration with Google Search and Gemini.
