Read MoreHide Full Article
Key Takeaways
CPAY has gained 6% in three months and is projected to post double-digit earnings growth in 2026.
CPAY's revenues are benefiting from a model combining digital platforms, direct sales and partners.
CPAY is expanding via acquisitions like AvidXchange and Alpha Group, while consistently repurchasing shares.
Corpay (CPAY - Free Report) has had a decent run on the bourses over the past three months, gaining 6% against the industry’s 1.2% decline.
CPAY’s fourth-quarter 2025 earnings are expected to increase 10.6% year over year. Its 2025 and 2026 earnings are projected to rise 11.9% and 16.7%, respectively. Revenues are anticipated to grow 13.6% in 2025 and 15.6% in 2026.
Reasons Behind the Upside
Corpay’s earnings have surpassed the Zacks Consensus Estimate in three of the past four quarters and met the same once, delivering an average earnings surprise of 0.6%.
CPAY’s revenue growth is driven by a multi-channel approach to market and sell its commercial payment solutions, incorporating a comprehensive digital channel, direct sales forces and partner relationships. This expands the company’s online, end-to-end capabilities, enabling customers to buy, onboard and manage their accounts personally.
CPAY is consistent with its acquisitions and investments, increasing its customer base domestically and internationally. In October 2025, the company acquired AvidXchange, a provider of accounts payable automation software and payment solutions, in partnership with alternative asset management firm TPG Inc., which will improve Corpay’s performance.
Additionally, CPAY acquired European B2B cross-border FX solution firm Alpha Group International plc, which will ensure global customer reach, and closed a minority investment in Mastercard, leveraging its financial institution reach.
The company consistently rewards its shareholders through repurchases. In 2020, 2021, 2022, 2023 and 2024, it repurchased shares worth $849.9 million, $1.36 billion, $1.41 billion, $686.9 million and $1.3 billion, respectively. These actions create shareholder value and instill confidence in the stock.
CPAY’s current ratio (a measure of liquidity) at the end of the third quarter of 2025 was 1.13, marginally lower than the industry average of 1.14. A current ratio of more than 1 indicates that the company can easily pay off its short-term obligations in the future.
A couple of better-ranked stocks are Genpact (G - Free Report) and Palantir Technologies Inc. (PLTR - Free Report) .
Genpact currently carries a Zacks Rank #2 (Buy). G has a long-term earnings growth expectation of 9.6%. The company delivered a trailing four-quarter earnings surprise of 5.5% on average.
Palantir also has a Zacks Rank of 2 at present, with a long-term earnings growth expectation of 50%. PLTR beat earnings estimates in three of the last four quarters and matched once, with an average surprise of 16.3%.
