Adyen reduced its expected 2026 EBITDA margin to 50 percent and has removed the midterm target of more than 55 percent to create more room for investments and acquisitions. Revenue grew 23 percent currency-adjusted in the third quarter to €738 million, and payment volume increased 30 percent to €451 billion. On the market the share fell in double digits (about 11 percent in the morning) and is down 39 percent year-to-date; analysts view the cut as negative in the short term but partly positive for the added investment flexibility and mostly maintain buy recommendations. » More on finanzen.net

Adyen has appointed Niclas Neglen as its new chief financial officer; he is due to take up the post on 1 February. Neglen has been CFO of Klarna since March 2021. The announcement briefly pushed Adyen’s share in Amsterdam down by about 3.44% to €873.40. » More on finanzen.net

S&P Global Ratings has raised Adyen’s outlook from “stable” to “positive” and confirmed the long-term issuer rating at A-. The move was justified by a doubling of net revenue over five years, strong organic growth mainly from existing customers, strategic acquisitions (Talon.One, Orb) and investments in personnel and financial products that are expected to support about 20% revenue growth. S&P forecasts adjusted EBITDA margins of around 50% through 2028, a cash position of roughly €4.5bn (excluding merchant funds), free cash flow of €1.2–1.3bn for 2026, and highlights the company’s lack of debt and high customer retention. » More on de.investing.com
