In its fourth quarter and full-year 2024 earnings report, LendingClub Corporation announced significant growth across several key financial metrics, including a 17% increase in total net revenue and a 20% increase in total assets compared to the previous year. The company also completed a $400 million loan sale to a new bank buyer, marking a strategic move in its financial portfolio management.
Key financial performance highlights for the fourth quarter include a 13% increase in loan originations, reaching $1.85 billion, and a 34% rise in pre-provision net revenue to $74.3 million. Despite facing an increased provision for credit losses, the company managed to achieve a net income of $9.7 million, slightly down from the previous year due to a one-time impairment expense related to software acquisition. The company’s deposits grew by 24%, reflecting robust member engagement with new savings and CD offerings.

LendingClub’s strategic focus on expanding loan originations and enhancing member experiences positions it well for future growth. The company anticipates further increases in originations and revenue in 2025, supported by continued innovation and a strong foundation built in 2024.
Looking forward, LendingClub aims to leverage its current momentum by accelerating growth in originations and returns while maintaining its commitment to innovation and member satisfaction. The management is optimistic about the company’s potential to achieve higher returns on equity as it progresses through 2025.
