8:09 am

After reviewing Ally Financial’s Q2 2025 earnings release, these are the 3 things that stood out most to me:

Net income surged 70% YoY to $324M, driven by a $73M drop in credit provisions after selling the card business. Amid rising credit risks industry-wide, this profit jump highlights savvy portfolio pruning and risk discipline.
NIM rose 9 bps to 3.41% (core ex-OID: 3.45%), holding net financing revenue at $1.5B despite rate pressures. As banks’ core profit engine, this showcasing strong deposit efficiency and yields—vital for sustained margins, dividends, and buybacks.
Adjusted EPS hit $0.99, up 36% YoY and crushing $0.78 estimates, fueled by record $11B auto originations and diversified revenue. Any strong earnings beat could spark momentum in the stock.
