Mayank Tandon’s rating is based on a combination of factors, primarily focusing on PayPal Holdings’ recent financial performance and future growth prospects. While PayPal reported strong quarterly results, exceeding expectations due to the strength in branded checkout and Venmo, there are concerns about the company’s growth trajectory.
The ongoing renegotiation of contracts with major Braintree merchants is anticipated to impact revenue growth negatively in the short term, despite the potential for improved transaction margins. Additionally, even though PayPal’s stock price has decreased significantly, the current valuation is deemed appropriate given the expected growth challenges. As a result, Tandon maintains a Hold rating, suggesting a balanced view between potential risks and rewards.
