NYSE:RKT Earnings & Revenue History as at May 2026

US$7.1b in TTM revenue with FY swings in profitability

  • On a trailing twelve month basis, Rocket generated about US$7.1b in revenue and reported a net loss of US$68m, while quarterly results in FY 2025 ranged from US$1.1b to US$2.8b of revenue and from a US$123.9m loss in Q3 to US$68.0m of net income in Q4.
  • Analysts' bullish narrative leans on technology driven efficiency and broader platform usage to support future margins. However, the current trailing loss of US$68m and mixed quarterly profitability underline that this thesis is being built on models rather than a clean, year long profit record.
    • Bulls highlight expected annual revenue growth above 20% and margin expansion over several years, while the latest trailing figures still show negative EPS of US$0.05 and interest coverage concerns flagged in the risk summary.
    • This tension between projected higher operating leverage and a recent track record of losses is key for you to weigh when thinking about how quickly the business might absorb its cost base.

Supporters argue that the jump from a US$123.9m loss in Q3 to a US$68.0m profit in Q4 is an early sign of that bullish playbook starting to show up in the numbers, while critics may see the full year loss as a reminder that the turnaround is still in progress.

Premium P/S of 5.7x versus industry 2.2x

  • Rocket trades on a P/S of 5.7x, which sits well above the US diversified financial industry average of 2.2x and a peer average of 1.9x, while the current share price of US$14.15 is also above the stated DCF fair value of US$13.13.
  • Bears argue that paying this kind of premium multiple for a company that was loss making over the last year relies heavily on optimistic margin and growth assumptions.
    • Analysts' consensus price target of US$20.73 implies meaningful upside from US$14.15, yet the DCF fair value of US$13.13 and unprofitable trailing 12 month earnings both point to valuation risk if those forward estimates do not play out as expected.
    • With shareholder dilution and weak interest coverage highlighted in the risk summary, skeptics see limited room for error when the stock already sits above the modelled DCF fair value and well above industry P/S levels.

Losses over five years and dilution concerns

  • Over the past five years, losses increased at a very large annualized rate of 70.6%, and over the last 12 months the company remained unprofitable while also issuing enough new shares to flag shareholder dilution as a key risk.
  • This setup speaks directly to the bearish narrative that questions the durability of future earnings if housing affordability and competition keep pressure on volumes and pricing.
    • Critics highlight that interest payments are not well covered by earnings today, which matters when the business is still loss making on a trailing basis and forecasts also build in ongoing share count growth of around 7% per year.
    • Against that backdrop, the roughly US$6.6 gap between the US$14.15 share price and the US$20.73 analyst target is being weighed against capital structure risks that could limit how much of those projected future earnings actually accrue to each share.
