In the third quarter of 2025, Mastercard reported a robust financial performance with significant growth in net revenue and earnings, driven by strong consumer and business spending and the successful launch of innovative solutions.
Mastercard’s third-quarter net income reached $3.9 billion, with diluted earnings per share of $4.34. The company achieved a 17% increase in net revenue to $8.6 billion, fueled by a 9% rise in gross dollar volume and a 15% boost in cross-border volume. The launch of the Mastercard Commerce Media network and new cyber threat intelligence solutions contributed to a 25% growth in value-added services revenue.
Operating expenses rose by 5%, primarily due to higher general and administrative costs. However, the company’s operating margin improved to 58.8%, reflecting efficient cost management. Mastercard also returned capital to shareholders by repurchasing shares worth $3.3 billion and paying $687 million in dividends during the quarter.
Looking ahead, Mastercard remains focused on driving customer value and expanding its market presence through continued innovation and strategic investments, as indicated by the company’s management.
