Second-quarter revenue increased more than 1,000%, and loans originated increased more than 1,600%. But with revenue of just $194 million in the second quarter, there's still plenty of room to grow.

And a large portion of its loans are concentrated in two banks -- which on the one hand means it can skyrocket as new banks sign on, but on the other hand means there's some risk attached to relying on two partners.

The automotive industry is a $1 trillion market, with less than 1% of buyers satisfied with the process. Upstart is taking aim at this market, offering a better way to provide financing that approves more loans with less risk and makes for a better experience for dealers and buyers. It's already making progress: More than $1 billion worth of cars were purchased in the 2021 second quarter using the Upstart Auto Retail platform, which makes for a more transparent process for customers and higher profits for dealers.</p><p><blockquote>Upstart 的最新产品是 Upstart Auto Retail，这是它在 4 月份收购 Prodigy Software 后开发的。汽车行业是一个1万亿美元的市场，只有不到1%的买家对这一过程感到满意。Upstart瞄准了这个市场，提供了一种更好的融资方式，以更低的风险批准更多的贷款，并为经销商和买家提供更好的体验。它已经取得了进展：2021 年第二季度使用 Upstart 汽车零售平台购买了价值超过 10 亿美元的汽车，这为客户提供了更加透明的流程，并为经销商带来了更高的利润。</blockquote></p><p> This is another area where the company could post high growth for a long time.

Upstart is taking aim at this market, offering a better way to provide financing that approves more loans with less risk and makes for a better experience for dealers and buyers. It's already making progress: More than $1 billion worth of cars were purchased in the 2021 second quarter using the Upstart Auto Retail platform, which makes for a more transparent process for customers and higher profits for dealers.\nThis is another area where the company could post high growth for a long time. In Q2, Upstart expanded auto from 33 to 47 states, covering more than 95% of the U.S. population, which opens up a huge market to gain market share, and five bank partners signed onto the auto platform.\nIt's already beating Wall Street\nUpstart has already crushed the market in its limited time in the markets. At recent prices, shares have gained more than 1,000% since the stock's first-day closing price, while over the same time period the S&P 500 has gained just 17%.\nBut all that investor excitement has pushed the stock price up to a massive valuation of nearly 400 times trailing-12-month earnings. The company's phenomenal growth justifies an elevated valuation, but this definitely tops a reasonable premium. I still think Upstart is a great stock to hold, and it can continue to beat the market long-term. However, at this point investors should be prepared for some volatility as the company grows into its stock price.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"UPST":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":4907,"commentLimit":10,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false,"reportStatus":false,"symbols":["UPST"],"verified":2,"subType":0,"readableState":1,"langContent":"CN","currentLanguage":"CN","warmUpFlag":false,"orderFlag":false,"shareable":true,"causeOfNotShareable":"","featuresForAnalytics":[],"commentAndTweetFlag":false,"andRepostAutoSelectedFlag":false,"upFlag":false,"length":31,"subscribersOnly":false,"subscribersOnlyAccessible":false,"xxTargetLangEnum":"ZH_CN"},"commentList":[],"isCommentEnd":true,"isTiger":false,"isWeiXinMini":false,"url":"/m/post/824963239"}
