Fast forward to today, and we now have data covering through the third quarter. In some respects, the company continues to report robust results. As an example, we need only look at revenue data. During the quarter, sales totaled $7.42 billion. That&#39;s 8.4% above the $6.85 billion the company reported one year earlier. At the end of the day, this growth was really driven by one big factor. This was a surge in the number of transactions from 5.64 billion to 6.28 billion. That&#39;s an increase of 11.2%. And that increase was driven by a roughly 13% rise in the average number of transactions per active account from 50.1 to 56.6. This all culminated in an increase in total payment volume from $336.97 billion to $387.70 billion.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/848834117aeb13c78070c0bbb923c225\" alt=\"PayPal Holdings\" title=\"PayPal Holdings\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"539\"/><span>PayPal Holdings</span></p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/97a406015c560bf73414f107f68635c7\" alt=\"PayPal Holdings\" title=\"PayPal Holdings\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"179\"/><span>PayPal Holdings</span></p><p>All of this looks fantastic, especially during a year when a tremendous amount of economic uncertainty severely influenced the markets. However, there was a downside. And that was that, for the third quarter in a row, the number of active accounts utilizing the company&#39;s services managed to drop. By the end of the third quarter, the company had 428 million active accounts. That&#39;s down from the 431 million just one quarter earlier and it represents A decline from the 435 million reported at the end of 2022. Management&#39;s claim is that this drop was driven by churn associated with accounts that were only ‘minimally engaged’ and by the company&#39;s decision to focus on driving higher activity levels with already existing active accounts. By definition, I would expect churn to be associated with accounts that were not previously engaged all that much, so that&#39;s not a surprise. As for the second part of that statement, the increase in transactions per active account does seem to support that claim.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/48f5a72db3961fdf15f6bc7f405c5c3d\" alt=\"PayPal Holdings\" title=\"PayPal Holdings\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"437\"/><span>PayPal Holdings</span></p><p>On the bottom line, we did unfortunately see some weakness. Net profits of $1.02 billion came in lower than the $1.33 billion reported one year earlier. At first glance, this looks rather awful. But the good news is that it was because of a $387 million swing from one year to the next in the form of ‘other income’. This was largely attributable to net gains on strategic investments plunging from $495 million last year to $24 million this year. This is not a core operation of the company and, without it, profits would have actually increased modestly. Other profitability metrics followed suit. Operating cash flow dropped from $1.76 billion to $1.26 billion. But if we adjust for changes in working capital, we would get a decline from just under $1.90 billion to $1.82 billion. And lastly, EBITDA for the company dipped from $1.50 billion to $1.46 billion.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/9d6f2a33effcd702d33e6bb1a8f0718a\" alt=\"Author - SEC EDGAR Data\" title=\"Author - SEC EDGAR Data\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"244\"/><span>Author - SEC EDGAR Data</span></p><p>As you can see in the chart above, the first nine months of 2023 relative to the same nine months of 2022 were quite a bit different than just the third quarter alone. They do have the rise in revenue and the drop in operating cash flow on a year over year basis in common. But beyond that, the picture for the company has looked up year over year. Again, a lot of that activity is due to rising volumes and total activity from users. And it seems as though management expects the picture to remain appealing for the rest of 2023. I say this because they are forecasting earnings per share on an adjusted basis of around $4.98 compared to the $4.13 reported for 2022.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/394fa8f61023cfb9b273fc389d1e09a8\" alt=\"Author - SEC EDGAR Data\" title=\"Author - SEC EDGAR Data\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"296\"/><span>Author - SEC EDGAR Data</span></p><p>When it comes to valuing the company, I decided to forecast growth for the final quarter. Based on my estimates, adjusted earnings should be around $5.47 billion this year. Adjusted operating cash flow should be around $6.77 billion, while EBITDA should come in somewhere around $5.61 billion. I then took those figures and compared them with 2022 data as shown in the chart above. On an absolute basis, shares look attractively priced in my opinion. I then compared the company to five similar firms as shown in the table below. On a price to earnings basis, PayPal looks to be the cheapest of the group. And when it comes to the other two profitability metrics, only one of the five firms ended up being cheaper than it.</p><table style=\"border-collapse:collapse;\"><tbody><tr><td style=\"text-align:left;\"><p><strong>Company</strong></p></td><td style=\"text-align:left;\"><p><strong>Price / Earnings</strong></p></td><td style=\"text-align:left;\"><p><strong>Price / Operating Cash Flow</strong></p></td><td style=\"text-align:left;\"><p><strong>EV / EBITDA</strong></p></td></tr><tr><td style=\"text-align:left;\"><p><strong>PayPal Holdings</strong></p></td><td style=\"text-align:left;\"><p><strong>12.4</strong></p></td><td style=\"text-align:left;\"><p><strong>10.0</strong></p></td><td style=\"text-align:left;\"><p><strong>12.0</strong></p></td></tr><tr><td style=\"text-align:left;\"><p><strong>Automatic Data Processing (ADP)</strong></p></td><td style=\"text-align:left;\"><p><strong>27.6</strong></p></td><td style=\"text-align:left;\"><p><strong>25.2</strong></p></td><td style=\"text-align:left;\"><p><strong>18.2</strong></p></td></tr><tr><td style=\"text-align:left;\"><p><strong>Fiserv (FI)</strong></p></td><td style=\"text-align:left;\"><p><strong>27.8</strong></p></td><td style=\"text-align:left;\"><p><strong>15.9</strong></p></td><td style=\"text-align:left;\"><p><strong>13.2</strong></p></td></tr><tr><td style=\"text-align:left;\"><p><strong>Fidelity National Information Services (FIS)</strong></p></td><td style=\"text-align:left;\"><p><strong>44.4</strong></p></td><td style=\"text-align:left;\"><p><strong>8.8</strong></p></td><td style=\"text-align:left;\"><p><strong>10.6</strong></p></td></tr><tr><td style=\"text-align:left;\"><p><strong>Global Payments (GPN)</strong></p></td><td style=\"text-align:left;\"><p><strong>37.2</strong></p></td><td style=\"text-align:left;\"><p><strong>14.2</strong></p></td><td style=\"text-align:left;\"><p><strong>14.4</strong></p></td></tr><tr><td style=\"text-align:left;\"><p><strong>Paychex (PAYX)</strong></p></td><td style=\"text-align:left;\"><p><strong>29.0</strong></p></td><td style=\"text-align:left;\"><p><strong>23.3</strong></p></td><td style=\"text-align:left;\"><p><strong>19.7</strong></p></td></tr></tbody></table><p></p><h2 id=\"id_1021283510\">Takeaway</h2><p>All things considered, I would make the case that PayPal is still a very solid opportunity. The recent weakness on the bottom line is something that is non-core in nature and should not be repeated with any real regularity. Cash flows are robust while overall growth is impressive. When you consider how attractively priced shares now are, especially relative to similar firms, and you look at the continued expansion in revenue and cash flows, it&#39;s very difficult for me not to rate the company a ‘strong buy’. The only thing holding me back is the decline in active accounts. Before I could take a more bullish stance on the business, I would need to see this decline cease and, ideally, a return to growth. If we do see stabilization on this front, I probably will upgrade the company further if everything else remains as it has been. But until then, I believe that a ‘buy’ rating still makes sense.</p></body></html>","source":"seekingalpha","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

By definition, I would expect churn to be associated with accounts that were not previously engaged all that much, so that's not a surprise. As for the second part of that statement, the increase in transactions per active account does seem to support that claim.PayPal HoldingsOn the bottom line, we did unfortunately see some weakness. Net profits of $1.02 billion came in lower than the $1.33 billion reported one year earlier. At first glance, this looks rather awful. But the good news is that it was because of a $387 million swing from one year to the next in the form of ‘other income’. This was largely attributable to net gains on strategic investments plunging from $495 million last year to $24 million this year. This is not a core operation of the company and, without it, profits would have actually increased modestly. Other profitability metrics followed suit. Operating cash flow dropped from $1.76 billion to $1.26 billion. But if we adjust for changes in working capital, we would get a decline from just under $1.90 billion to $1.82 billion. And lastly, EBITDA for the company dipped from $1.50 billion to $1.46 billion.Author - SEC EDGAR DataAs you can see in the chart above, the first nine months of 2023 relative to the same nine months of 2022 were quite a bit different than just the third quarter alone. They do have the rise in revenue and the drop in operating cash flow on a year over year basis in common. But beyond that, the picture for the company has looked up year over year. Again, a lot of that activity is due to rising volumes and total activity from users. And it seems as though management expects the picture to remain appealing for the rest of 2023. I say this because they are forecasting earnings per share on an adjusted basis of around $4.98 compared to the $4.13 reported for 2022.Author - SEC EDGAR DataWhen it comes to valuing the company, I decided to forecast growth for the final quarter. Based on my estimates, adjusted earnings should be around $5.47 billion this year. Adjusted operating cash flow should be around $6.77 billion, while EBITDA should come in somewhere around $5.61 billion. I then took those figures and compared them with 2022 data as shown in the chart above. On an absolute basis, shares look attractively priced in my opinion. I then compared the company to five similar firms as shown in the table below. On a price to earnings basis, PayPal looks to be the cheapest of the group. And when it comes to the other two profitability metrics, only one of the five firms ended up being cheaper than it.CompanyPrice / EarningsPrice / Operating Cash FlowEV / EBITDAPayPal Holdings12.410.012.0Automatic Data Processing (ADP)27.625.218.2Fiserv (FI)27.815.913.2Fidelity National Information Services (FIS)44.48.810.6Global Payments (GPN)37.214.214.4Paychex (PAYX)29.023.319.7TakeawayAll things considered, I would make the case that PayPal is still a very solid opportunity. The recent weakness on the bottom line is something that is non-core in nature and should not be repeated with any real regularity. Cash flows are robust while overall growth is impressive. When you consider how attractively priced shares now are, especially relative to similar firms, and you look at the continued expansion in revenue and cash flows, it's very difficult for me not to rate the company a ‘strong buy’. The only thing holding me back is the decline in active accounts. Before I could take a more bullish stance on the business, I would need to see this decline cease and, ideally, a return to growth. If we do see stabilization on this front, I probably will upgrade the company further if everything else remains as it has been. But until then, I believe that a ‘buy’ rating still makes sense.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":257,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":134805633,"gmtCreate":1622213771922,"gmtModify":1704181700138,"author":{"id":"3578919638751571","authorId":"3578919638751571","name":"tagoel","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3578919638751571","authorIdStr":"3578919638751571"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/RBLX\">$Roblox Corporation(RBLX)$</a>Insane valuations couldn't keep it falling below titanic","listText":"<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/RBLX\">$Roblox Corporation(RBLX)$</a>Insane valuations couldn't keep it falling below titanic","text":"$Roblox Corporation(RBLX)$Insane valuations couldn't keep it falling below titanic","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/134805633","isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":244,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":102703679,"gmtCreate":1620246031691,"gmtModify":1704340650883,"author":{"id":"3578919638751571","authorId":"3578919638751571","name":"tagoel","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3578919638751571","authorIdStr":"3578919638751571"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Proud to work for the company!","listText":"Proud to work for the company!","text":"Proud to work for the company!","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/102703679","repostId":"2133852601","repostType":2,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":346,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":102560278,"gmtCreate":1620224420694,"gmtModify":1704340452176,"author":{"id":"3578919638751571","authorId":"3578919638751571","name":"tagoel","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3578919638751571","authorIdStr":"3578919638751571"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"It will rebound soon.","listText":"It will rebound soon.","text":"It will rebound soon.","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/102560278","repostId":"2133512546","repostType":2,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":212,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":102588948,"gmtCreate":1620224130684,"gmtModify":1704340443940,"author":{"id":"3578919638751571","authorId":"3578919638751571","name":"tagoel","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3578919638751571","authorIdStr":"3578919638751571"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Sales and revenue are up significantly and thus cost of revenue.
