Earnings Call Summary
Earnings Call Date:Apr 23, 2025
|% Change Since: 0.30%
|Next Earnings Date:Jul 30, 2025
Earnings Call Sentiment|Neutral
The earnings call presented a mixed picture, with significant achievements in transaction growth, digital business performance, and strategic expansion in Europe and the Middle East. However, these were offset by challenges in the Americas, particularly due to geopolitical factors and specific market slowdowns. The company's operational efficiency savings and strategic acquisitions provide an optimistic outlook for future growth.Company Guidance
During The Western Union Company's Q1 2025 earnings call, CEO Devin McGranahan highlighted several key metrics and trends. The company reported $984 million in revenue for the quarter, marking a 2% decline in adjusted revenue when excluding Iraq, with a 3% transaction growth and a 10% cross-border principal growth on a constant currency ex-Iraq basis. The company's branded digital business saw a 14% increase in transactions and an 8% growth in adjusted revenue. Despite geopolitical headwinds in the Americas, where North America and LACA experienced transaction growth declines of about 100 and 200 basis points respectively, the rest of the world, including Europe, the Middle East, and APAC, performed well with double-digit transaction growth. Adjusted earnings per share came in at $0.41, down from $0.45 a year ago. The operational efficiency program yielded $30 million in savings, contributing to a total of $140 million to date, with an expectation to exceed the $150 million target ahead of schedule. The company reaffirmed its 2025 outlook, expecting adjusted revenue of $4.115 billion to $4.215 billion, an operating margin of 19% to 21%, and adjusted EPS between $1.75 and $1.85.Sustained Transaction Growth
