Andrew Jeffrey's Buy Rating Highlights Block's Growth Potential and Strategic InitiativesWe recommend investors aggressively add shares of Block following meetings with Matt Ross, head of IR. We believe that the market underestimates Block’s ability to drive above-average gross profit, EBITDA, FCF, and ROIC growth. We see Square progressing its turnaround and positioned for accelerating GPV and gross profit growth as it builds distribution and moves upmarket. We are also bullish on likely faster Cash App MAU growth and monetization as Block integrates Borrow and BNPL while innovating rapidly, evidenced by solutions like Pools. The upshot is that Block should achieve 2026 while comfortably exceeding consensus estimates along the way, demonstrating a commitment to strong unit economics and operating leverage. We are confident this performance will drive multiple expansion even in the face of traditional fintech valuation constraints.

Block's Strategic Growth and Market Positioning Earns Buy Rating from AnalystWe hosted a small group dinner in Block management, including both Investor Relations. Key topics of discussion included Cash App initiatives around supporting network density/MAU growth, Square distribution efforts (paybacks, sales teams, etc.), self-onboard vs. non-self-onboard contributions, and more. We continue to believe Block (XYZ) is well positioned for share gains for Square (ramping distribution efforts across sales teams & partnerships, product improvements), accelerating trends within Cash App (alongside the potential for upside to estimates driven by Cash Card post purchase BNPL), operating expense discipline (while leaving room to lean in on sales & marketing investments), alongside an upcoming investor day November 19th to highlight recent product and distribution/marketing progress and returns across both ecosystems.

Positive Outlook for Block's Stock: Buy Rating Supported by Projected Growth in Cash App and Strategic Lending PositioningWe take 2Q commentary that profit added from new cohorts of merchants has outpaced GPV added as a positive read on the underlying structural dynamics. 2) Evidence of positive knock-on effects from the rapid growth in lending (positioning Borrow as a strategic product rather than an isolated growth driver) via accelerating inflows per active growth (we expect ~1ppt benefit in FY26), and a faster pace of paycheck direct deposit actives net adds (using Borrow limits/access as an incentive to drive direct deposit attach). We also expect a return to MAU growth in 2H.
