Affirm Holdings Inc (NASDAQ: AFRM) shares are trading lower Tuesday after Upstart (NASDAQ:UPST) Holdings Inc (NASDAQ: UPST) shares plunged on worse-than-expected quarterly results and soft guidance.

  • UPST Revenue: $228.16 million missed estimate of $241.63 million

"This quarter's results are disappointing and reflect a difficult macroeconomic environment that led to funding constraints in our marketplace," said Dave Girouard, co-founder and CEO of Upstart.

Upstart said it expects third-quarter revenue to be approximately $170 million versus the estimate of $248.92 million.
