Bryan Bergin has given his Hold rating due to a combination of factors influencing PayPal Holdings’ current market position. The company’s branded checkout business has not met the more optimistic expectations, largely due to tariff-related pressures affecting consumer spending from China-based platforms. Despite PayPal’s significant innovations and efforts to change its corporate culture, these challenges have tempered buy-side optimism.
PayPal’s management remains confident in medium-term growth, but the immediate outlook for its core branded checkout business remains uncertain. While there are positive developments in other areas such as Venmo and Omni, the time required to see meaningful changes in the company’s trajectory contributes to a ‘wait and see’ approach among investors. The current valuation provides some downside protection, but the overall sentiment suggests a cautious stance, justifying the Hold rating.
