The recent departure of Fiserv Inc.'s CEO has caused a notable pullback in the stock price, prompting several analysts to reassess their price targets. Despite the uncertainty following this leadership change, many analysts view the decline as a long-term buying opportunity, highlighting the company's historical resilience with four CEOs since 1984, which has not hindered its overall stock performance. On the other hand, some experts express concerns about the company's future growth, citing its focus on a saturated market and the potential risks posed by competitors offering specialized solutions. This mixed sentiment reflects both optimism about the company's foundational strengths and caution regarding external market pressures that may impact its growth trajectory.

Trevor Rose’s Insights - Trevor’s most-liked answers from 5i Research

With good growth expected and at 23X earnings, we think it looks good. The stock has done well over the past year and is up nicely in 2025. Note that leverage is fairly high and the Q1 may look weaker because of tough year over year comparisons as last year's Q1 was very strong. But we think it is fine overall assuming a decent holding period.

Trevor Rose’s Insights - Trevor’s most-liked answers from 5i Research

Following the stock's pullback amid the CEO's departure, several analysts have increased their price targets on the company today, and we view this pullback as a good long-term buying opportunity. We continue to view the company as a high-quality name, and while there is increased uncertainty around its future given the CEO's departure, it has had four CEOs since 1984, all while its shares have generally traded up and to the right.

SELL
Record high.

Better than it used to be, spinout makes a lot of sense. But at the end of the day, servicing an end market that's not growing and they're trying to sell more into it. Open to risk from other players that have pure-play solutions. More reasons to be negative than positive.

Financial Services
BUY

Strong fintech business. 
Good long term hold.
Steady growth and high earnings predictability.
Good share price right now.
