Jason Kupferberg has given his Buy rating due to a combination of factors including Global Payments’ alignment with their Investor Day targets and the strong financial metrics expected for 2025. The company is projected to achieve a 5%-6% growth in adjusted net revenues and a 10%-11% increase in adjusted EPS, which aligns with previously set goals, demonstrating consistency in performance expectations.

The company’s attractive valuation, along with its plan for significant capital return to shareholders and an accelerated share buyback, adds to the positive outlook. These factors, coupled with the anticipated execution of transformation initiatives, underpin Kupferberg’s confidence in the company’s future prospects.
