Private education loans held for investment were $19.5 billion, supported by $19.9 billion of deposits and asset‑backed and unsecured debt funding.
Capital actions included an accelerated share repurchase of 9.3 million shares, reducing common shares outstanding by 5% since December 31, 2025, a quarterly common dividend of $0.13 per share, and issuance of $500 million of unsecured senior notes to retire an equal amount of notes due November 2026. Management also describes federal student loan reforms that it expects could eventually increase annual originations by up to 70%, or $4.5–$5 billion, although these figures are forward‑looking estimates.
SLM Corporation, commonly known as Sallie Mae, reported second quarter 2026 results with GAAP diluted EPS of $0.29, down from $0.32 a year earlier, and net income of $59 million. Private Education Loan originations grew 4.5% year over year, with average loans outstanding of $21.1 billion.
Results reflected net interest income of $333 million, provisions for credit losses of $126 million, total non-interest income of $68 million, and non-interest expenses of $195 million. The net interest margin was 4.75%, while the cost of funds declined to 4.13% from 4.22% in the prior-year quarter.
The company sold $420 million of Private Education Loans and in May 2026 issued $500 million of unsecured senior notes, using the proceeds to retire senior notes of the same amount due November 2026. Credit metrics included net charge-offs of $113 million and delinquencies of 3.72% of loans in repayment, compared with 3.51% a year ago.
Capital actions featured completion of a $200 million accelerated share repurchase totaling 9.3 million shares, leaving $242 million under the 2026 repurchase program, and a quarterly dividend of $0.13 per common share. For full-year 2026, the company expects EPS of $3.10–$3.20, Private Education Loan originations growth of 12%–14%, net charge-offs of $365–$385 million, and non-interest expenses of $750–$780 million.

Stockholders also approved, on an advisory basis, the compensation of the company’s named executive officers, with approximately 170.7 million votes in favor versus a smaller number against or abstaining.

SLM Corporation provides an investor presentation outlining private education loan growth, credit quality trends, and impacts from recent federal student loan reforms. The company reports that its private education market share rose from 52% in 2020 to 63% at year-end 2025, with a +1.7% market share increase in Q1 2026 while the rest of the market saw minimal growth.
Credit quality metrics remain strong, with an average FICO at approval of 754 and 95% of loans cosigned in Q1 2026, both slightly above the prior-year quarter. Despite underwriting tightening that the company estimates affected about 10% of annual originations, private education loan originations grew +16% from 2023 to 2025.
The presentation discusses federal reforms in H.R.1, effective for new borrowers beginning July 1, 2026. Over several years, the company expects these reforms to increase originations by up to 70% and ultimately add an estimated $4.5–$5 billion in annual originations once the shift is complete. SLM also highlights new graduate and professional loan products launched in 2026, which have driven application growth of +117% for medical and dental loans and +34% for graduate and law loans versus the prior-year period.
Loss performance is described as broadly stable overall, with 30+ day delinquencies between about 3.54%–3.78% and net charge-offs between 2.15%–2.55% of average loans in repayment from 2022–2025. However, a small “impacted segment” of high-ability-to-pay borrowers linked to misaligned third‑party debt resolution practices has seen outsized gross charge-offs. This segment represented only 0.08% of the portfolio as of 2026 but about 6.40% of total on-balance sheet gross charge-offs as of April 30, 2026.
In response, SLM is pausing recovery loan sales and certain settlement strategies and shifting to internally controlled recovery approaches. The company states that if it does not resume third-party recovery strategies in 2026, full-year 2026 net charge-offs could increase by approximately $25 million, with an expectation of recovery over time through internal strategies. Management emphasizes that, excluding the impacted segment, recent repayment-wave losses have remained broadly stable and only modestly above expectations.
SLM Corporation completed an offering of $500,000,000 of 6.495% Fixed-to-Floating Rate Senior Notes due 2032. The notes pay a fixed 6.495% annual interest rate until May 15, 2031, then switch to a floating rate equal to a benchmark plus 271 basis points until maturity.
Interest is paid semi-annually during the fixed period and quarterly during the floating period. The company may redeem the notes at specified prices and must offer to repurchase them at 101% of principal plus interest upon certain change of control events.
SLM intends to use the net proceeds primarily to fund a tender offer for its 3.125% senior notes due 2026, including accrued interest and related fees, and to repay any remaining 2026 notes at maturity.
SLM Corporation, commonly known as Sallie Mae, has launched a cash tender offer for any and all of its outstanding 3.125% senior notes due November 2, 2026. The notes have $500,000,000 principal amount outstanding and carry a 3.125% coupon.
The purchase price per $1,000 principal amount will be set by adding a fixed spread of 25 basis points to the yield of the 4.125% U.S. Treasury due October 31, 2026, as quoted on the Bloomberg FIT 3 page at 2 p.m. New York City time on May 12, 2026, the current expiration time of the offer.
Holders whose notes are purchased will also receive accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the expected settlement date of May 15, 2026. The tender offer is being made in connection with a contemporaneous new senior debt offering, and is conditioned on completion of that new notes offering, which will provide proceeds to repurchase tendered notes. Sallie Mae expects to repay any notes not tendered at maturity and, subject to the new notes offering and tender completion, to deposit funds with the trustee to repay remaining notes at maturity and satisfy and discharge the indenture for these notes.

Management highlights robust credit quality, diversified funding with $20.5 billion of deposits, and expects recent federal student loan reforms to potentially increase originations by up to 70% over several years.

The potential transaction is expected to close in the first quarter of 2026, but remains subject to negotiation and execution of definitive documents, customary closing conditions, and any required approvals. The update is being shared in connection with CEO Jon Witter’s appearance at the 2026 RBC Capital Markets Global Financial Institutions Conference and is provided as a Regulation FD disclosure, with no assurance that the loan sale will be completed.
SLM Corporation, commonly known as Sallie Mae, entered into a $200 million accelerated share repurchase agreement with Goldman Sachs to buy back its common stock under a previously authorized $500 million repurchase program.
Goldman Sachs will deliver most of the shares shortly after execution, with the final number based on a discounted volume-weighted average stock price during the agreement term. Depending on that price, Sallie Mae could receive additional shares at settlement or may need to deliver shares or cash. The company expects the ASR to be completed before the end of the second quarter of 2026.
Before this ASR, Sallie Mae had already repurchased approximately $91 million of common stock in 2026, bringing first-quarter repurchases and commitments to nearly $300 million and signaling an aggressive approach to returning capital to shareholders.
