PayPal’s Earnings Raise Sale Bar | Business and Finance News

PayPal just smashed Q2 earnings, beating revenue forecasts and showing explosive payment growth — a major boost to its stock and future plans. With $1.8B in free cash flow, they’re poised to buy back shares and invest, while also raising full-year guidance on margins and earnings. That’s making it harder for any buyer — including Stripe — to justify a lowball $65 offer; PayPal’s asking for closer to $70. The CEO didn’t outright reject the bid, but signaled the board will only consider offers that outperform their current growth strategy. Strong results don’t kill the deal, but they raise the bar — and show PayPal’s value is rising fast. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
