Cautious Hold Recommendation on Shift4 Payments Amidst Acquisition and Leadership Transition RisksWe appreciated the variety of executives who presented at the event and provided a deep dive into FOUR’s product and acquisition strategy. However, given YTD share outperformance (+21%), we are not surprised to see shares down aftermarket on the unexpected announcement of FOUR’s acquisition of Global Blue (its largest ever) for ~$2.5B. Midpoint of initial ’25 guide was also modestly below Street. New 3-year guide includes organic GRLNF growth of high teens (‘24 was 26%), but in a base case scenario (including GB and other future acqs), FOUR expects GRLNF and adj. EBITDA to grow 30%+. Amid CEO transition, GB integration, and an ample roster of organic initiatives, we are mindful of potential execution risk; maintain Neutral.
