Block Inc (XYZ) Analyst Ratings
Bulls say
Block's performance in 2024 highlights an impressive growth trajectory, with Square's payment volume nearing USD 250 million and a 7% increase in gross payment volume (GPV) in the U.S., driven by improved customer retention and same-store growth. The company's robust balance sheet, featuring $10.7 billion in liquidity, underpins its strategic initiatives, including a significant share buyback program and investments in expanding its product offerings across all 50 states. Management anticipates notable margin expansion and accelerated gross profit growth, projecting an increase from 11% in Q1 2025 to approximately 19% by Q4 2025, supported by enhanced underwriting processes and product integration strategies.
Bears say
Block's stock outlook is negatively impacted by lowered earnings per share (EPS) estimates for 2025 and 2026, reflecting diminished growth expectations amid increasing market skepticism regarding the company's ability to accelerate gross profit growth. In addition, the emergence of competitive threats, regulatory risks associated with buy-now-pay-later solutions, and a challenging macroenvironment contribute to heightened downside risk for Block's financial performance. Furthermore, the market is currently pricing in a significant likelihood of earnings misses, compounding concerns over consumer sentiment and external economic factors that could undermine the company's growth trajectory.
