The company reported over $30 billion in revenue for the July quarter, up 122% year-on-year, marking the fourth consecutive quarter of triple-digit growth.

SoFi Technologies shares rose on Thursday after the U.S. Supreme Court declined to revive the Biden administration's student debt relief plan. The court's decision is seen as positive for SoFi, which could have lost revenue from interest payments and loan origination fees if student loan forgiveness or deferment had been implemented under the SAVE plan. The Supreme Court denied an emergency request to lift a nationwide injunction on the plan.
