Why is Pagaya Technologies Ltd. Class A Ordinary Shares (PGY) stock moving?

Pagaya reported Q3 2026 on Oct 29 with adjusted EPS of $1.07, ahead of the $0.97 estimate. Sales results conflict across sources: fiscal.ai cites revenue of $390.5M, while Benzinga reports $362.2M, below the $382.1M estimate. Management narrowed FY2026 sales guidance to $1.450B-$1.500B, a midpoint slightly above the $1.464B estimate, but the Q4 sales range of $355M-$405M sits below the $378.1M consensus. The stock opened at 17.02 on Oct 29, then closed at 20.81 on 3.3M shares, roughly 1.6 times the recent average. It has since fallen to a 30-day low close of 17.21 on Nov 10, about 17% below the post-earnings close, on volume of about 2.2M. Analysts responded positively, with B. Riley raising its target to $38 and TD Cowen raising its target to $27 with Buy ratings. Those targets sit well above the current price, but the post-earnings selloff and the weaker Q4 outlook are the main counterweights. The 10-Q filed Nov 2 and the Oct 5 borrower-characteristics presentation were not detailed in the supplied data, so they are not weighed here.

News behind the analysis

About Pagaya Technologies Ltd. Class A Ordinary Shares

Financials · Consumer lending technology (fintech)

Pagaya Technologies runs an AI-driven underwriting network based in New York and Tel Aviv. It helps banks, lenders and auto finance companies approve more personal, auto and point-of-sale loans, then sells those loans to institutional investors, mostly through asset-backed securitizations. Pagaya does not lend directly to consumers. Instead it sits between partner lenders and Wall Street investors. It has issued over 100 ABS deals and has reported several consecutive quarters of GAAP profit, with Q3 2026 revenue around $390 million.

How it makes money

Most revenue comes from network fees that partner lenders and investors pay when loans pass through Pagaya's models. These include fees for screening applicants and fees tied to the loans it places with investors. Pagaya also earns interest and investment income because it keeps a slice of the securitizations it sponsors, as regulators require. That retained piece also leaves it exposed to credit losses on those loans.
