Earnings Call Sentiment|Neutral
Sallie Mae delivered solid financial performance in the second quarter of 2025 with strong credit quality and effective capital return strategies. The company is well-positioned to capitalize on the opportunities presented by federal student loan reforms. However, challenges remain with increased provisions for credit losses and slightly below-expectation loan originations.View all SLM earnings summariesSLM Stock 12 Month Forecast
