Meet Samuel – Your Personal Investing Prophet

An announcement from Paysafe ( (PSFE) ) is now available.

Paysafe reported first‑quarter 2026 results on May 13, posting revenue of $442.7 million, up 10% year on year, driven by 8% organic growth split between stronger digital wallets and merchant solutions, notably in Latin America, Europe and North American iGaming. Despite adjusted EBITDA rising 4% to $99.2 million and adjusted EPS jumping 21% to $0.41 on a lower share count, the company’s net loss widened to $36.5 million due largely to higher share‑based compensation from a one‑time award and increased credit losses.

The payments group generated stronger operating cash flow and unlevered free cash flow, used $104.3 million for net debt repayments that helped reduce its net leverage ratio to 5.2x, and ended March 31 with $2.2 billion of net debt. Management reaffirmed full‑year 2026 guidance for mid‑single‑digit to high‑single‑digit growth in revenue and adjusted EBITDA and double‑digit adjusted EPS growth, while the board saw a transition as director Eli Nagler resigned and experienced Latin America‑focused payments executive Ignacio Caride joined the board on May 8, underscoring the company’s international and strategic ambitions.

The most recent analyst rating on (PSFE) stock is a Buy with a $10.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Paysafe stock, see the PSFE Stock Forecast page.

Spark’s Take on PSFE Stock

According to Spark, TipRanks’ AI Analyst, PSFE is a Neutral.

The score is held back primarily by pressured and volatile profitability and high leverage despite solid free cash flow generation. Technicals are mixed with negative MACD and the stock still below longer-term moving averages. Offsetting factors include constructive 2026 guidance and a stated plan to deleverage, but valuation remains unattractive/unclear given the negative P/E.
