GAAP net income attributable to common shareholders collapsed to $49.00 million from $251.00 million in Q4 2022, with net financing revenue sliding $181.00 million year-over-year to $1.49 billion as net interest margin compressed 48 basis points to 3.20%. Provision for credit losses climbed to $587.00 million, reflecting retail auto net charge-offs of 2.21% annualized, though management expects NCO rates to peak in the first half of 2024 before easing as stronger recent vintages mature. Looking ahead, Ally guided full-year 2024 NIM to 3.25%-3.30%, with an exit rate of 3.40%-3.50%, keeping its medium-term targets of 4% NIM, $6.00 EPS, and mid-teens Core ROTCE firmly in view.
