American Express

American Express reported strong first-half trends with foreign-exchange-adjusted revenue up about 10%, mid-teens EPS growth, 16% card-fee growth and double-digit net interest income growth, and raised its 2026 revenue-growth outlook toward 10%. The company will channel better-than-expected performance into customer acquisition, technology and product development while maintaining long-term aspirations of 10% revenue growth and mid-teens EPS growth. International expansion, travel spending and younger cardmembers (Millennials and Gen Z account for 65% of new accounts) are key growth drivers, and credit metrics remain stable. Variable customer engagement expenses were raised to 44–45% of revenue as benefit rollouts accelerate; the firm plans to continue dividends and share repurchases. » Altro su finance.yahoo.com
