Synchrony Q3 FY2026: EPS $2.68 beats, net income falls 17% to $892 million
Synchrony beat the $2.45 consensus at $2.68 a share, yet net income fell 17% to $892 million because a year-earlier reserve release flattered the comparison. Revenue of $4.91 billion grew just 1.4%, so the quarter is really two stories: credit measurably improved while the bottom line shrank. Read the EPS beat and the earnings decline together — neither one alone tells you what changed.
