NAVI INVESTOR ALERT: Investigation of Navient Corporation Announced by The Law Offices of Howard G. Smith

Law Offices of Howard G. Smith announces that it is investigating potential claims on behalf of investors of Navient Corporation (“Navient” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ:NAVI) concerning the Company’s and its officers’ possible violations of federal securities laws.

On June 13, 2015 the Company announced a substantial cut to its prior financial guidance for the remainder of its 2015 annual performance. The Company now expects second-quarter core earnings of $0.40 per share, and full-year 2015 core earnings of $1.85 per share. Regarding its cut in 2015 guidance, the Company stated in relevant part, “the company has removed from 2015 guidance additional private loan acquisitions. The company also has reduced its forecast for net interest income as a result of increased cost of funds. As a result, for the second half of 2015, the net interest margin is projected to range between 3.83 percent and 3.85 percent for private education loans and between 0.81 percent and 0.85 percent for FFELP loans.” Jack Remondi, Navient CEO further stated, “the changes to our guidance reflect marketplace conditions for private loan portfolio purchases and cost of funds, as well as a conservative assessment of default trends for a small and declining segment of our private education loan portfolio.” On this news, the price of Navient shares plummeted by nearly 14% in after-hours trading.
