Visas Net Revenue Falls Short of Forecasts, Leading to PostEarnings Decline

As expected by Wall Street, Visas revenue for the third quarter was missed, which is unusual for the most significant payment processor in the world.

As expected by Wall Street, Visas revenue for the third quarter was missed, which is unusual for the most significant payment processor in the world. The companys afterhours share price fell 4.6% due to its $8.90 billion net sales, which fell short of the $8.92 billion expected. Higher borrowing rates, which affect consumer spending, especially among lowerincome groups, were blamed for this shortage. Visas growth was steady among highspenders while slightly down in lowerspend categories. A downturn was also seen in the AsiaPacific region, particularly in mainland China. Despite this, Visa reported a 14% increase in crossborder transactions and a 7% increase in payment volume, and they anticipate "low doubledigit" revenue growth in the upcoming quarter. Read More..
