Summary

  • PayPal delivered strong Q2 results, beating estimates and achieving its fourth consecutive quarter of customer base growth, addressing a key prior weakness.
  • The Fintech remained free cash flow profitable in Q2, confirmed its FY 2025 free cash flow guidance and raised its EPS outlook.
  • Slowing growth in PayPal's branded checkout, driven by tariff uncertainty, have led to an exaggerated 9% drop in the Fintech's share price on Tuesday.
  • PayPal's shares are attractively valued at just 12.7X FY 2026 earnings, making it the most affordable Fintech among rivals.
  • I remain bullish on PayPal due to its solid fundamentals, a raised EPS guidance, and significant revaluation potential, though monitoring customer growth trends remains crucial.
