Lending Club has had a challenging year, impacted by a stuttering economy and the unexpected departure of founder and former CEO Renaud Laplanche.

Lending Club incorporated additional incentives to boost activity, something the company expects to transition away from in Q4 with revenue and EBITDA anticipated to grow in the first half of 2017. Lending club is trading at just over $4 per share, down from the 52 week high of over $15 per share.
