The company's annual average increase in the share price was 46%, while the achieved average growth of the company's earnings per share was 29%. Therefore, we must conclude that the investors valued the company higher than the achieved results.\nLast Quarter's Earnings\nIn Q1 2021, PayPal exceeded the expected revenues of $5.90 billion and achieved $ 6.03 billion. Also, the expected total payment volume of $265 billion was beaten by 7.5%. That reflected the company's adjusted earnings, so the expected $1.01 per share was topped with $1.22. The new earnings report is expected by the end of July, with the expected earnings per share of $0.83.\nPayPal's Entry Into The Cryptocurrency Arena\nAs other big names in the financial world, like Visa (NYSE:V) and Mastercard Incorporated (NYSE:MA), initiated their participation in the crypto world, at least through \"crypto reward\" program credit cards, PayPal could not afford to stay behind. It was the right choice as PayPal's value more than doubled in 2020, and its stock gained 23% during the first half of the year.\nThrough its peer-to-peer service Venmo, which is used by more than 70 million users, PayPal offered its customers to operate their cryptocurrencies through its digital wallets, and that pleased both the consumers and millions of merchants. Venmo is on track to bring $900 million to this year's revenue table. Although that's less than 4% of PayPal's business, the ability to pay using cryptocurrency should act as a huge catalyst for growth in 2022. The company's CEO recognized cryptocurrencies as the key growth instruments. PayPal's main competition in this area is Square, Inc. (NYSE:SQ) and its Cash App, which also evolved into a true financial app that supports transactions in bitcoin, without any fees. The digital payment processor sees a major opportunity ahead regarding the adoption of an app that posted $51 billion in payments last quarter, marking a YoY increase of 63%.\nNew Features Done Right\nPayPal has been investing heavily in technology, more precisely $2.6 billion in 2020 alone, to develop new features for its growing base of active users. It plans to roll out our next-generation digital wallet in Q3, an \"all-in-one personalized app\" that will offer customized and unique shopping features, financial services, and new payment experiences.\nWhat's most impressive about PayPal's recent business performance is the improvement in its operating margin. What is truly remarkable is that PayPal managed to roll out so many new features, with more on the way, without compromising its profitability. Moreover, it has been posting healthy increases its margins and profit. This is the definition of ‘a job well done' so no wonder that investors are pleased.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":169,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":303599456264232,"gmtCreate":1715141304736,"gmtModify":1715141573458,"author":{"id":"3581892045821452","authorId":"3581892045821452","name":"keowkeowheng","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":5,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3581892045821452","authorIdStr":"3581892045821452"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"<a href=\"https://ttm.financial/S/C6L.SI\">$SIA(C6L.SI)$ </a> ","listText":"<a href=\"https://ttm.financial/S/C6L.SI\">$SIA(C6L.SI)$ </a> ","text":"$SIA(C6L.SI)$","images":[{"img":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/b1fe30cdef1e0b4901f8ed96f76ea802","width":"894","height":"1508"}],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/303599456264232","isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":145,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":1,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0}],"lives":[]}
