Worldline

Worldline has entered exclusive discussions with Cuscal to sell its New Zealand payments operations for an enterprise value of about €17m. The unit handles roughly 70% of in‑store payments in New Zealand, with estimated revenue of €35m and adjusted EBITDA of about €12m, and operates separately from Worldline’s European business. The disposal is part of a strategy to refocus on European payments and simplify operations, with completion expected in Q2 2026 and total net cash proceeds from announced disposals projected at €560m–€610m in 2026. » Mere på finance.yahoo.com

Worldline unveiled its transformation plan "North Star 2030", targeting roughly 4% CAGR (2027–2030) and an EBITDA of €1bn by 2030. To finance this, the company announced a €500m capital increase; anchor investors such as Bpifrance, Credit Agricole and BNP Paribas have already committed €240m (including a private placement at €2.75/share and a rights issue). Worldline is selling the Electronic Data Management business for €30m, expects organic revenue growth in the low single digits for 2026, a adjusted EBITDA slightly below the 2025 trough of €830m, and aims for positive free cash flow from 2027 that should rise to €300–350m by 2030. » Mere på de.investing.com

Worldline reports external revenue of €1,150m for Q3 2025 and an organic decline of 0.8%. The Merchant Services segment remained stable at €862m, while Financial Services fell by 4.5%. For Q4 the company expects a similar trend; guidance for adjusted EBITDA is €830–855m and free cash flow is projected at -€30m to €0. Management cites regulatory inquiries and a weak macroeconomic environment as risks; the Capital Markets Day on November 6 is expected to provide further strategic insight. » Mere på de.investing.com
