SoFi (NASDAQ:SOFI) stock is in the spotlight after SoftBank (OTCMKTS:SFTBY) sold shares of the company for the third time this month. In the month of August, the multinational conglomerate has now sold off a total of 49.85 million shares, reducing its stake by 52%. The recent sale saw SoftBank sell 18.22  million shares on Aug. 16. After the sale, the firm now owns 45.42 million shares, equivalent to a 4.9% stake. In addition, SoftBank's stake has now fallen below the 5% threshold that requires filers to file a 13D or 13G form. As a result, the conglomerate is not required to disclose any further sales of SOFI stock.

SOFI(納斯達克:SOFI)股票在經歷了軟銀(OTCMKTS:SFTBY)本月第三次出售該公司股票。8月份,這家跨國企業集團總共出售了4985萬股,減持了52%的股份。在最近的出售中,軟銀在8月16日出售了1,822萬股。出售後,軟銀現在擁有4,542萬股,相當於4.9%的股份。此外,軟銀的持股比例現在已降至5%的門檻以下,這一門檻要求申報人提交13D或13G表格。因此,該集團不需要披露任何進一步出售Sofi股票的信息。

SoftBank's first sale of SOFI was on Aug. 5. Since then, shares of the company have declined by about 15% as the stock struggles to find a price floor. What's more, SoftBank hinted after its first sale that it may "sell some or all of their holdings of Shares of the Issuer [SoFi] in the open market." So, why exactly is the firm selling out?

軟銀第一次出售Sofi是在8月5日。自那以來,該公司股價下跌了約15%,原因是該股難以找到價格下限。更重要的是,軟銀在第一次出售後暗示,它可能會出售他們持有的部分或全部發行人的股票[SOFI]在公開市場上。“那麼,這家公司到底為什麼要賣光?

SoFi isn't the only company SoftBank has sold. SoftBank also parted ways with Uber (NYSE:UBER) and Opendoor (NASDAQ:OPEN) for a gain of $5.6 billion.

Sofi並不是軟銀出售的唯一一家公司。軟銀也與優步(Uber)(紐約證券交易所代碼:Uber)和OpenDoor(納斯達克:打開),獲得56億美元的收益。

SoftBank isn't selling its stake in SoFi because of a lack of conviction. During Q2, the company reported a record loss of $23.4 billion as the value of its investments — both public and private — experienced major drawdowns. As a result, CEO Masayoshi Son explained that his company is taking a defensive stance in order to continue company operations. He explained, "Our vision remains the same, our beliefs remain the same. But we know we have to reduce operational costs, including headcount. For new investments, we have to be more selective."

由於缺乏説服力,軟銀不會出售其在SoFi的股份。在第二季度,該公司報告了創紀錄的234億美元的虧損,因為其公共和私人投資的價值經歷了大幅縮水。因此,首席執行官孫正義解釋説,他的公司正在採取防禦立場,以繼續公司運營。他解釋説:“我們的願景不變,我們的信念不變。但我們知道,我們必須降低運營成本,包括裁員。對於新的投資,我們必須更加挑剔。”

Meanwhile, SoFi reported strong Q2 earnings results, despite rising rates, inflation and the student loan moratorium. Revenue tallied in at $356 million, beating the consensus analyst estimate of $340.8 million by a healthy 4.5%.

與此同時,SoFi公佈了強勁的第二季度收益業績,儘管利率上升、通脹和學生貸款暫停。營收為3.56億美元,比分析師普遍預期的3.408億美元高出4.5%。

Furthermore, the company raised full-year guidance for both adjusted net revenue and earnings before interest, taxes, deductions and amortizations (EBITDA). Full-year revenue is now expected to be between $1.508 billion and $1.513 billion, up from the previous guidance of between $1.505 billion and $1.51 billion. The company now expects EBITDA to be between $104 million and $109 million, up from previous guidance of between $100 million and $105 million.

此外,該公司提高了調整後淨收入和扣除利息、税項、扣除和攤銷前收益(EBITDA)的全年指引。目前預計全年營收在15.08億至15.13億美元之間,高於此前指引的15.05億至15.1億美元。該公司目前預計EBITDA在1.04億至1.09億美元之間,高於此前1億至1.05億美元的指引。
