Nu Holdings Ltd. remains a buy due to robust growth metrics and a long runway targeting Latin America's unbanked. NU's digital-only model and strong capital structure provide a competitive edge over less efficient Latin American banks, supporting sustained 20%+ earnings growth. NU's valuation has improved: it trades at a 21x P/E and a 0.44 PEG, reflecting high margins and growth potential relative to peers.
Nu continues its rapid expansion across Latin America, reaching 135 million customers by early 2026. OneMain maintains a steady presence in the U.S. nonprime lending market through its hybrid digital and branch network.
Nu Holdings is rapidly expanding in Latin America, driving strong net income growth and customer monetization through credit portfolio expansion. NU trades at a deeply discounted 11.8x P/E, well below both U.S. Fintech peers and its own historical average, signaling significant undervaluation. Robust credit card and unsecured lending growth have fueled a 12% Q/Q increase in net interest income, reaching $3.3B last quarter.
Nu Holdings remains a Strong Buy despite an 18% stock decline and delayed bull case realization. Top and bottom-line acceleration, undervaluation, and premium fundamentals underpin my bullish stance on NU. The fintech market's potential to triple offers a significant multi-year tailwind for NU's growth prospects.
