📊 MIXED Wealthfront Q1 2027: $96.6B platform assets, revenue $90.5M, 19% YoY asset growth
Revenue & Profitability
Revenue came in at $90.5 million, up 7% year-over-year. Cash management revenue was $63.4 million (down 1% YoY) and investment advisory revenue was $26.2 million (up 32% YoY). GAAP net income was $12.8 million with GAAP EPS of $0.07. Adjusted EBITDA was $37.5 million (down 1% YoY), with a margin of 41%. Adjusted free cash flow was $42.7 million with a 114% conversion ratio.
Outlook
Management noted a dynamic macro backdrop with rising mortgage rates and a decline in effective Fed funds rate. They highlighted that high-yield savings competitors have become more conservative on rates. Client investment sentiment declined sharply in late March then partially recovered through May. The company believes its diverse product suite positions it to grow with clients through various environments, but acknowledged that mortgage demand is rate-dependent.
Growth Drivers
Key growth levers include the cross-product adoption incentive launched in early March, which drove over 4,000 new account openings and increased asset-weighted cross-product adoption to roughly 63% by May end. Wealthfront Home Lending expanded to Colorado and Texas, with rate lock volume rising 25% month-over-month in May. Organic client acquisition benefited from direct deposit incentives and elevated traffic from large language models referencing Wealthfront.
Balance Sheet & CapEx
Not discussed explicitly as a capital expenditure figure. However, investments are being made in product development (higher headcount and cloud computing), the Home Lending rollout (start-up expenses), and AI experimentation. The company also allocated $27 million for share repurchases during the quarter under a $100 million board authorization.
Margins
Adjusted EBITDA margin was 41% in Q1, down three percentage points year-over-year, driven by investment in Home Lending and incentives. Management previously expected margins near 40% near term and noted that as Home Lending scales, steady-state margins will be lower than prior levels (45%-47%) due to the slightly lower margin profile of that business. The company continues to exceed the Rule of 40, achieving a 49% metric for the 15th consecutive quarter.
Key Risks
Risks flagged include the dynamic macro environment, particularly rising mortgage rates that could impact Home Lending scaling and client demand. The company noted that mortgage volume is rate-dependent and that the rollout could be slower if rates rise further. Additionally, client net cash outflows during tax season (April had $577 million cash management net withdrawals) highlight seasonality. The early direct deposit program creates short-term receivables that affect cash flow timing but not profitability.

Financial Model
Projections are built from each company's audited annual financials (Income Statement, Balance Sheet, Cash Flow) over the last 5 fiscal years. Forward assumptions — revenue growth %, EBITDA margin, D&A (USD millions), interest expense, tax rate, and capex — are AI-generated using historical context and refreshed twice a year: after the December results season and after the September/Q4 results season.

DCF Valuation
Fair Value = Σ(FCFt / (1+WACC)t) + Terminal Value. Terminal Value uses the Gordon Growth Model: FCF5 × (1+g) / (WACC−g). Default WACC: 10% (US risk-free ~4.5%, equity risk premium ~5.5%). Default terminal growth: 3% (long-run US nominal GDP proxy).

CAGR Tracker
Expected 5-year CAGR = (DCF Fair Value / Current Price)1/5 − 1. Assumes fair value is reached in exactly 5 years — a mechanical estimate only.
