Investor Insights

This summary was created by AI, based on 1 opinions in the last 12 months.

Global Payments Inc. (GPN-N) has faced a significant decline of 17%, primarily due to its presence in the competitive enterprise software sector, which is currently experiencing a bear market. The company reported an acceptable quarterly performance; however, it maintained its full-year forecast without any adjustments. This lack of proactive changes may suggest that the company is struggling to navigate the challenging market conditions effectively. As competitors continue to innovate and capture market share, Global Payments may find it increasingly difficult to differentiate itself and regain momentum. Investors are advised to keep a vigilant eye on market trends and competitors' actions.

Global Payments was down 17%, because it's in enterprise software, a crowded space that's in a bear market. They reported an okay quarter, but didn't change their full-year forecast.

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

The sell-off in the share price recently is due to a few reasons:

In 2022, the company did record an impairment of goodwill of their previous acquisition, which the market perceives as an overpayment for their previous acquisition, leading to questionable capital allocation skills of management. Debt also increased with acquisitions, and is now about 5X cash flow, fairly high for the current environment. 
Recessions could affect consumers’ purchases, which affects GPN’s business. Also, amid the banking crisis recently, companies related to the Financial sector are under pressure. 
The good news is that there is some insider purchases at these prices in the last few months, and the company also repurchased shares quite significantly in 2022, indicating management believes shares are quite undervalued. Payments and card processing is a high-quality business with high ROEs and predictable growth. We think GPN will do OK going forward, although investors also need to be mindful of their acquisitions strategies. Its decline is not really out of line vs other companies over the past year, and it is well priced at 9.6X earnings.

DON'T BUY
Among the biggest losers on the S&P in 2021 #2, down 37%. This used to be a perennial winner, because global payments is an essential part of the credit card food chain, spanning the world. This partners with 200 large banks and 1,000 smaller ones. Problem is there are a dozen competitors. Too many companies chasing too few accounts.
BUY ON WEAKNESS
It's now at a good discount to buy this stock. The CEO has bought a lot of shares.
BUY
People love payment stocks, so their weak performance of late is puzzling. It's a very good company he recommends.
BUY ON WEAKNESS
The chart looks good, says growth, upward momentum and buy. The chart has seen an uptrend since 2015. Add on dips.
