By creating an integrated platform offering multiple financial products with strong synergies across each one, SoFi is able to tap into multiple total addressable markets. The SoFi strategy is to build a membership experience and a full suite of products that leverages the financial services productivity loop. This is where it builds trust and a relationship in the first product to drive success in the next. This should see the company realize a higher customer lifetime value against lower customer acquisitions costs.

This should see an average quarterly revenue of at least $1 billion from fiscal 2025.<blockquote>支撑这一论点的财务基本原理是，到 2025 财年，收入复合年增长率至少为 42%，调整后 EBITDA 利润率为 45%。从 2025 财年开始，平均季度收入应该至少达到 10 亿美元。</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/383c2ac508db6c9e1131e95639cfc84f\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"289\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">SoFi Adjusted Net Revenue And Adjusted EBITDA Guidance<blockquote>SoFi 调整后净收入和调整后 EBITDA 指引</blockquote> While my expected adjusted revenue growth rate comes in higher than SoFi's guidance by $331 million, the adjusted EBITDA should at minimum mirror provided guidance. SoFi's strategy should then see a material portion of this revenue converted into free cash flow. As at the end of its last reported quarter, for every $1 in revenue created, the company was able to convert 12.5 cents into free cash flow. This saw FCF, which is cash from operations minus capital expenditures, come in at $55.80 million for the 6 months ending June 30, 2021.<blockquote>虽然我预期的调整后收入增长率比 SoFi 的指导高出 3.31 亿美元，但调整后的 EBITDA 至少应反映所提供的指导。SoFi 的战略应该是将这笔收入的很大一部分转化为自由现金流。截至上一季度末，该公司每创造 1 美元的收入，就能将 12.5 美分转化为自由现金流。截至 2021 年 6 月 30 日的 6 个月中，FCF（运营现金减去资本支出）达到 5580 万美元。</blockquote> The Winner Takes Most<blockquote>获胜者获得最多</blockquote> Cash is king. This is one of the most universal statements in business due to its importance in ascertaining the overall fiscal health of a company. Hence, with SoFi currently holding cash and equivalents of $462 million, the company's expected generation of free cash flow in the years coming places it in a healthy financial position. Further, the potential granting of a new banking charter, the increased operational scale of its strategy, the trajectory of its new financial services, and the retrenchment of pandemic era constraints on its business should see the company rise to realize incremental improvements to its FCF conversion rate. My bullish thesis states that this has a capacity to rise to at least 17 cents on the dollar or a free cash flow margin of 17%.<blockquote>现金为王。这是商业中最普遍的陈述之一，因为它对于确定公司的整体财务健康状况非常重要。因此，由于 SoFi 目前持有 4.62 亿美元的现金及等价物，该公司预计在未来几年产生的自由现金流使其处于健康的财务状况。此外，新银行章程的潜在授予、其战略经营规模的扩大、其新金融服务的发展轨迹以及疫情时代对其业务限制的缩减应该会使该公司能够逐步提高其自由现金流转换率。我的看涨论点是，这有可能升至至少 17 美分兑美元，或 17% 的自由现金流利润率。</blockquote> This should likely see free cash flow come in at just under $700 million generated on revenue of $4 billion in fiscal 2025. This leaves the only remaining equation to be what multiple on FCF the market will extend to SoFi at this point in the future. Square (SQ) currently trades on a 74x multiple to its cash flows, hence a 40x multiple to FCF could be stated as somewhat prudent, albeit not entirely conservative. This should see the total market capitalization of the company at roughly $28 billion, a 100% increase from its current $14 billion market cap. Annualized returns at 25% from fiscal 2022 would be far in excess of historical returns from the broader market.<blockquote>2025 财年收入为 40 亿美元，自由现金流可能会略低于 7 亿美元。这使得唯一剩下的等式是未来此时市场将扩展到 SoFi 的 FCF 倍数。Square (SQ) 目前的交易市盈率是其现金流的 74 倍，因此 FCF 的 40 倍可以说是有些谨慎的，尽管并非完全保守。这将使该公司的总市值约为 280 亿美元，比目前的 140 亿美元市值增长 100%。2022 财年 25% 的年化回报率将远远超过大盘的历史回报率。</blockquote> Of course, the actual end market capitalization could be a widely different figure as it will be dictated by a number of factors that are hard to forecast so far ahead. Firstly, the bank charter is not guaranteed, and a delay beyond this timeline would see actual free cash flow generated come in materially lower. Further, with the pandemic still raging, further interventions by the federal government in SoFi's core lending market cannot be entirely ruled out. Another risk also arises from competition from other established fintech firms looking to mimic SoFi's integrated financial platform strategy as it would create mirror offerings.<blockquote>当然，实际的最终市值可能是一个截然不同的数字，因为它将由许多目前难以预测的因素决定。首先，银行章程没有保证，超过这个时间表的延迟将导致实际产生的自由现金流大幅减少。此外，由于疫情仍在肆虐，不能完全排除联邦政府对SoFi核心贷款市场的进一步干预。另一个风险还来自其他老牌金融科技公司的竞争，这些公司希望模仿 SoFi 的综合金融平台战略，因为它将创建镜像产品。</blockquote> A Blueprint For Growth<blockquote>增长蓝图</blockquote> SoFi is scratching the surface of the total American TAM for digital financial services. Hence, the company is likely in the very early innings of its growth. The digitization of finance from the proliferation of new generation fintech firms is transferring value away from the traditional banking incumbents.<blockquote>SoFi 正在触及美国数字金融服务总 TAM 的表面。因此，该公司可能正处于增长的早期阶段。新一代金融科技公司激增带来的金融数字化正在将价值从传统银行业转移出去。</blockquote> I backed up the truck on SoFi because the company has a clear strategy for value creation being driven by a high-quality management team. The continued positive trajectory of multi-product membership growth is a strong vote of confidence in the ability of the company's strategy to boost LTV and reduce CAC. This should highlight itself in SoFi's financials as a boost to FCF in the years ahead.<blockquote>我支持SoFi，因为该公司有一个由高素质管理团队驱动的明确价值创造战略。多产品会员增长的持续积极轨迹是对公司提高 LTV 和降低 CAC 的战略能力的强烈信任票。这应该会在 SoFi 的财务报表中凸显出来，作为未来几年自由现金流的提振。</blockquote> Investing takes a lot of conviction and is an incredibly solitary experience where your mind becomes the only foundation to lean on when making investment decisions. These decisions should not be taken lightly as they spell the difference between wealth creation or destruction. I have taken a large position in SoFi as I believe it represents the type of company to generate returns in excess of the broader market.<blockquote>投资需要很大的信念，是一种令人难以置信的孤独体验，你的思想成为做出投资决策时唯一依靠的基础。这些决定不应掉以轻心，因为它们意味着财富创造或毁灭之间的区别。我在 SoFi 中持有大量头寸，因为我相信它代表了那种能够产生超过大盘回报的公司。</blockquote>","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>SoFi: Why Did I Back Up The Truck?<blockquote>索菲：我为什么倒车？</blockquote></title>\n<style type=\"text/css\">\na,abbr,acronym,address,applet,article,aside,audio,b,big,blockquote,body,canvas,caption,center,cite,code,dd,del,details,dfn,div,dl,dt,\nem,embed,fieldset,figcaption,figure,footer,form,h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6,header,hgroup,html,i,iframe,img,ins,kbd,label,legend,li,mark,menu,nav,\nobject,ol,output,p,pre,q,ruby,s,samp,section,small,span,strike,strong,sub,summary,sup,table,tbody,td,tfoot,th,thead,time,tr,tt,u,ul,var,video{ font:inherit;margin:0;padding:0;vertical-align:baseline;border:0 }\nbody{ font-size:16px; line-height:1.5; color:#999; background:transparent; }\n.wrapper{ overflow:hidden;word-break:break-all;padding:10px; }\nh1,h2{ font-weight:normal; line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:.6em; }\nh3,h4,h5,h6{ line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:1em; }\nh1{ font-size:24px; }\nh2{ font-size:20px; }\nh3{ font-size:18px; }\nh4{ font-size:16px; }\nh5{ font-size:14px; }\nh6{ font-size:12px; }\np,ul,ol,blockquote,dl,table{ margin:1.2em 0; }\nul,ol{ margin-left:2em; }\nul{ list-style:disc; }\nol{ list-style:decimal; }\nli,li p{ margin:10px 0;}\nimg{ max-width:100%;display:block;margin:0 auto 1em; }\nblockquote{ color:#B5B2B1; border-left:3px solid #aaa; padding:1em; }\nstrong,b{font-weight:bold;}\nem,i{font-style:italic;}\ntable{ width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:1px;margin:1em 0;font-size:.9em; }\nth,td{ padding:5px;text-align:left;border:1px solid #aaa; }\nth{ font-weight:bold;background:#5d5d5d; }\n.symbol-link{font-weight:bold;}\n/* header{ border-bottom:1px solid #494756; } */\n.title{ margin:0 0 8px;line-height:1.3;color:#ddd; }\n.meta {color:#5e5c6d;font-size:13px;margin:0 0 .5em; }\na{text-decoration:none; color:#2a4b87;}\n.meta .head { display: inline-block; overflow: hidden}\n.head .h-thumb { width: 30px; height: 30px; margin: 0; padding: 0; border-radius: 50%; float: left;}\n.head .h-content { margin: 0; padding: 0 0 0 9px; float: left;}\n.head .h-name {font-size: 13px; color: #eee; margin: 0;}\n.head .h-time {font-size: 12.5px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;}\n.small {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.9); -webkit-transform: scale(0.9); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.smaller {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.8); -webkit-transform: scale(0.8); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.bt-text {font-size: 12px;margin: 1.5em 0 0 0}\n.bt-text p {margin: 0}\n</style>\n</head>\n<body>\n<div class=\"wrapper\">\n<header>\n<h2 class=\"title\">\nSoFi: Why Did I Back Up The Truck?<blockquote>索菲：我为什么倒车？</blockquote>\n</h2>\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\nSeeking Alpha2021-09-29 23:07\n\n</h4>\n</header>\n<article>\nSummary<blockquote>总结</blockquote> <ul> <li>SoFi is one of my largest equity positions.</li> <li>This is supported by a bullish thesis stipulating a 4-year revenue CAGR of 42% and FCF margins of 17%.</li> <li>While ambitious, it's likely to be attainable on the back of SoFi's core strategy.</li> </ul> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ebf97a4bfc29e8284c8da999fa6d92ac\" tg-width=\"1536\" tg-height=\"1025\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">PM Images/DigitalVision via Getty Images<blockquote><ul><li>SoFi 是我最大的股票头寸之一。</li><li>这得到了乐观论点的支持，该论点规定 4 年收入复合年增长率为 42%，自由现金流利润率为 17%。</li><li>虽然雄心勃勃，但在 SoFi 核心战略的支持下，这很可能是可以实现的。</li></ul>PM Images/DigitalVision via Getty Images</blockquote> My long thesis on SoFi (SOFI) is built on the digitization of traditional banking and financial services across America and the broader developed world.
