Nubank earns about 16x what it costs to serve an active customer; 90+ day NPLs up 0.4 points to 7.3%

Nu Holdings ($NU), the Brazilian digital bank behind Nubank, reported Q3 on Thursday: record net income of $1.1 billion, up 31% with 143 million customers.

Monthly revenue per active customer was $17.70 against $1.10 to serve one, about 16x. That spread is the business. The 90+ day NPL ratio rising 0.4 points in one quarter to 7.3% is the part I'm watching. Not financial advice
