PayPal beats on earnings but misses on revenue

PayPal reported better-than-expected third-quarter earnings on Tuesday, but revenue came in slightly below expectations.

Here's how the company did compared to Wall Street estimates, based on a survey of analysts by LSEG:

  • Earnings per share: $1.20, adjusted vs. $1.07 expected
  • Revenue: $7.85 billion vs. $7.89 billion expected

Revenue increased about 6% in the quarter from $7.42 billion in the same period a year ago. PayPal reported net income of $1.01 billion, or 99 cents per share, compared to $1.02 billion, or 93 cents per share, a year earlier.

It's the first earnings report for CEO Alex Chriss since he reached his one-year mark on the job in September. The stock is up 36% this year and 42% since Chriss joined the payments company, which at the time was mired in a deep slump due to increased competition and a declining take rate, or the percentage of revenue PayPal keeps from each transaction.
