Upstart (NASDAQ:UPST) stock is sliding lower on Wednesday following a poor performance in the third quarter of 2022 and a weak outlook.

Let’s start with that outlook, which has Upstart expecting revenue of $125 million to $145 million in the fourth quarter of the year. That’s not looking good next to Wall Street’s estimate of $179.04 million for the period.

To go along with that, Upstart is expecting a net loss of $87 million in its upcoming quarter. This comes alongside its estimate of -$35 million in Adjusted EBITDA for the fourth quarter of 2022.

Q3 Results Aren’t Helping UPST Stock

That includes the lending company’s adjusted earnings per share of -24 cents. This is much wider than the -8 cents per share that analysts were expecting for the quarter.

Also not doing UPST stock any favors is its revenue of $157.23. That’s another miss for the company compared to Wall Street’s revenue estimate of $169.44 million. It also represents a 31% decrease year-over-year from $228.45 million.

All of this news has investors selling shares and triggering heavy trading of UPST stock. As of this writing, more than 8 million shares of the stock have changed hands. That’s already above its daily average trading volume of about 7 million shares.

UPST stock is down 16.9% as of Wednesday morning.
