Wall Street analysts raised their price targets on SLM Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SLM#NASDAQ">SLM</a>) after the company released its <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/01/b43177801/sallie-mae-reports-fourth-quarter-and-full-year-2024-financial-results" rel="noreferrer noopener">fourth-quarter print</a> Thursday amid an exciting earnings season.
SLM&#8217;s fourth-quarter EPS of $0.50 missed the analyst estimate. The net interest income of $362.00 million missed the analyst estimate of $373.96 million.

SLM expects fiscal 2025 EPS of $3.00-$3.10 versus $3.35 analyst estimate. It expects non-interest expenses of $655 million-$675 million.
Keefe, Bruyette &amp; Woods analyst Sanjay Sakhrani maintained SLM with a Market Perform with a <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/SLM/analyst-ratings" rel="noreferrer noopener">price target of&nbsp;$30</a>.
RBC Capital&nbsp;analyst Jon G. Arfstrom reiterated an Outperform on SLM and raised the price target&nbsp;to $32 from $30.
JP Morgan analyst Richard Shane maintained SLM with a Neutral and raised the price target from $29 to $30.
Keefe, Bruyette &amp; Woods: SLM reported core EPS of $0.50, which compares to Sakhrani&#8217;s estimate of $0.58. The miss to the analyst&#8217;s EPS estimate was driven by higher provision (-$0.15/share) and lower net interest income (-$0.01/share), partially offset by lower expenses (+$0.02/share) and a lower tax rate (+$0.06/share).
SLM reported a miss relative to Sakhrani&#8217;s expectations on higher provisions, while Pre-provision Net Revenue (PPNR) aligned with expectations. Core trends were mixed, with originations and the Delinquency (DQ) rate being better, PPNR and the net charge-off (NCO) rate being in line, and the Net interest margin rate being weaker. The company provided a 2025 outlook with EPS and loan origination growth better than Sakhrani&#8217;s expectations, while the NCO rate and expenses are in line.
RBC Capital: Core results were acceptable in a seasonally softer origination quarter. Highlights included substantial loan growth, some modest margin reduction, and a meaningful decrease in expense levels. Credit trends were more mixed with higher NCOs sequentially, though management remains hopeful that losses should continue to normalize lower in 2025 towards its longer-term loss range. 
The 2025 outlook calls for solid origination growth and manageable expense levels. Further, the company plans to sell $2 billion in loans in the first quarter of 2025, which should support the updated EPS guide. Arfstrom&#8217;s thesis remains consistent, as he noted continued progress in the gradual shift toward a more balanced growth model. However, additional loan sales and buyback activity will likely continue over the near-to-medium term.
Arfstrom adjusted his 2025E EPS from $2.90 to $3.00 and his 2026E EPS from $3.20 to $3.40. The price target of $32 is ~10.5 times Arfstrom&#8217;s 2025 EPS estimate. The target primarily mirrors the analyst&#8217;s profitability and risk assessment of the company relative to a peer group of similar companies. The assumed multiple is consistent with a peer group of consumer finance-oriented operators.
JP Morgan: SLM reported GAAP and core EPS of $0.50, below Shane&#8217;s estimate of $0.57, and Street estimates of $0.55, driven by elevated provision expense. SLM provided 2025 guidance, which the analyst noted matches expectations.
However, balance sheet growth may exceed the company&#8217;s long-term framework of 5%-6% year-on-year, which could drive incremental reserve build in 2025. There were no loan sales in the fourth quarter of 2024, but the company announced a $2 billion loan sale in the first quarter of 2025, followed by additional loan sales in 2025.
Shane valued SLM based on a forward multiple of core earnings. In determining a December 2025 price target, he applied a multiple of 9.00 times (versus 8.75 times prior) on his 2026 core EPS estimate of $3.32 (versus $3.33 prior). The multiple reflects higher growth potential as SLM continues to take market share. The price target implies a 4.5% potential annualized total return.
Price Action: SLM stock is down 0.27% at $29.22 at last check Friday.

JP Morgan Maintains Neutral on SLM, Raises Price Target to $29

The Biden administration on Monday announced more federal student loan forgiveness, bringing the administration&#8217;s total student loan forgiveness to $183.6 billion for more <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/01/42803225/plans-to-forgive-4-28-billion-in-student-loans-for-54900-borrowers-halted-what-this-means-for-millions-still-drowning-in-debt">than 5 million borrowers.&nbsp;</a>
The Details: The Department of Education <a href="https://www.ed.gov/about/news/press-release/biden-harris-administration-surpasses-5-million-borrowers-approved-student-loan-forgiveness">announced several types</a> of discharges on Monday including the approval of nearly 85,000 borrowers for $1.26 billion in student loan relief based upon borrower defense findings that the institutions had misled and cheated borrowers.&nbsp;
The DOE also announced the approval of 6,100 borrowers for $465 million through Public Service Loan Forgiveness Second and $2.5 billion in relief for 61,000 borrowers with a total and permanent disability.

"Four years ago, President Biden made a promise to fix a broken student loan system. Today, life-changing student debt relief is possible for more than five million borrowers—more than any other administration in history," said U.S. Secretary of Education Miguel Cardona.&nbsp;
"Thanks to our tireless and unapologetic efforts to work toward a system that is affordable and accountable to both students and taxpayers, today's announcement includes additional relief for borrowers misled and cheated by their institutions, borrowers with disabilities, as well as additional loan forgiveness for public servants," Cardona added.&nbsp;
Student Loan Servicers: The latest round of student loan forgiveness could have repercussions for loan providers including SoFi Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SOFI#NASDAQ">SOFI</a>), Navient Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NAVI#NASDAQ">NAVI</a>) and SLM Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SLM#NASDAQ">SLM</a>). 
Student loan servicers could lose revenue in the form of interest income and fees related to the latest loan discharges.&nbsp;
Additionally, the rollout of forgiveness programs often requires servicers to update systems, retrain staff and manage complex transitions, all of which would increase expenses.

White House Says Biden Approves Student Loan Relief For More Than 150,000 Borrowers

The Biden administration withdrew two major student loan forgiveness plans Friday, just weeks before President-elect Donald Trump returns to the White House. Here's a look at what it means for borrowers and student <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/12/42635567/biden-student-loan-forgiveness-tops-180-billion-with-latest-relief">loan service providers.</a> 
The Details: The Education Department posted notices in the Federal Register that it was withdrawing two proposals that could have reduced student loan debt for millions of borrowers, including those with financial hardship and those who have been in repayment for years, CNBC reported.

The department wrote that it was withdrawing the proposed rules due to "operational challenges in implementing the proposals." It also said it would focus its resources on "helping at-risk borrowers return to repayment successfully" as the administration prepares to leave office in the next month.&nbsp;
"The Biden administration knew that the proposals for broad student loan forgiveness would have been thwarted by the Trump administration," higher education expert Mark Kantrowitz<a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2024/12/23/student-loan-forgiveness-plans-withdrawn-by-biden-administration.html"> told</a> CNBC.&nbsp;
What Else: Also on Friday, the Department of Education announced another $4.28 billion in<a href="https://www.ed.gov/about/news/press-release/biden-harris-administration-approves-additional-428-billion-student-debt-relief-nearly-55000-public-service-workers-0"> loan forgiveness</a> for nearly<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/student-debt"> 55,000 public service workers</a> which brought the total amount of student loan forgiveness under the Biden administration to $180 billion.
Education Secretary Miguel Cardona emphasized the administration's commitment to student loan relief for public service workers in a statement Friday. 
"Four years ago, the Biden-Harris Administration made a pledge to America&#8217;s teachers, service members, nurses, first responders, and other public servants that we would fix the broken Public Service Loan Forgiveness Program, and I&#8217;m proud to say that we delivered," Cardona said.
Loan Servicers: The administration's withdrawal of the additional loan forgiveness proposals is potentially a positive development for student loan providers including SoFi Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SOFI#NASDAQ">SOFI</a>), Navient Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NAVI#NASDAQ">NAVI</a>) and SLM Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SLM#NASDAQ">SLM</a>)&nbsp;
Student loan providers would have lost revenue if Biden's student loan forgiveness plans had gone through. 
Additionally, the rollout of forgiveness programs often requires servicers to update systems, retrain staff and manage complex transitions, all of which would increase expenses.

Biden Dumps Student Loan Forgiveness Plans: What It Means For Borrowers, Loan Providers Like SoFi

SLM's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SLM#NYSE">SLM</a>) short percent of float has risen 4.85% since its last report. The company recently reported that it has 8.05 million shares sold short, which is 4.54% of all regular shares that are available for trading. Based on its trading volume, it would take traders 2.56 days to cover their short positions on average.
<h3>Why Short Interest Matters</h3>
Short interest is the number of shares that have been sold short but have not yet been covered or closed out. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock/">Short selling</a> is when a trader sells shares of a company they do not own, with the hope that the price will fall. Traders make money from short selling if the price of the stock falls and they lose if it rises.
Short interest is important to track because it can act as an indicator of market sentiment towards a particular stock. An increase in short interest can signal that investors have become more bearish, while a decrease in short interest can signal they have become more bullish.

<h3>SLM Short Interest Graph (3 Months)</h3>
<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2024/1734973213_0.png" alt="short_fig" />
As you can see from the chart above the percentage of shares that are sold short for SLM has grown since its last report. This does not mean that the stock is going to fall in the near-term but traders should be aware that more shares are being shorted.
<h3>Comparing SLM's Short Interest Against Its Peers</h3>
Peer comparison is a popular technique amongst analysts and investors for gauging how well a company is performing. A company's peer is another company that has similar characteristics to it, such as industry, size, age, and financial structure. You can find a company's peer group by reading its 10-K, proxy filing, or by doing your own similarity analysis.
According to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/">Benzinga Pro</a>, SLM's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 6.38%, which means the company has less short interest than most of its peers.
Did you know that increasing short interest can actually be bullish for a stock? <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-make-money-on-a-short-squeeze/">This post by Benzinga Money explains how you can profit from it.</a>

Peering Into SLM's Recent Short Interest

In the current market session, SLM Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SLM#NASDAQ">SLM</a>) stock price is at $26.78, after a 3.63% drop. However, over the past month, the company's stock went up by 0.73%, and in the past year, by 44.53%. Shareholders might be interested in knowing whether the stock is overvalued, even if the company is not performing up to par in the current session. 

<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2024/1734965120_0.png" alt="Past Year Chart" />

<h3>Evaluating SLM P/E in Comparison to Its Peers</h3>
The P/E ratio measures the current share price to the company's EPS. It is used by long-term investors to analyze the company's current performance against it's past earnings, historical data and aggregate market data for the industry or the indices, such as S&amp;P 500. A higher P/E indicates that investors expect the company to perform better in the future, and the stock is probably overvalued, but not necessarily. It also could indicate that investors are willing to pay a higher share price currently, because they expect the company to perform better in the upcoming quarters. This leads investors to also remain optimistic about rising dividends in the future. 
Compared to the aggregate P/E ratio of the 35.77 in the Consumer Finance industry, SLM Inc. has a lower P/E ratio of 9.58. Shareholders might be inclined to think that the stock might perform worse than it's industry peers. It's also possible that the stock is undervalued. 

<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2024/1734965120_1.png" alt="Guage" />

In summary, while the price-to-earnings ratio is a valuable tool for investors to evaluate a company's market performance, it should be used with caution. A low P/E ratio can be an indication of undervaluation, but it can also suggest weak growth prospects or financial instability. Moreover, the P/E ratio is just one of many metrics that investors should consider when making investment decisions, and it should be evaluated alongside other financial ratios, industry trends, and qualitative factors. By taking a comprehensive approach to analyzing a company's financial health, investors can make well-informed decisions that are more likely to lead to successful outcomes.
