The company reported revenue of $261.60 million, up just 0.4% year over year and short of the $270.18 million consensus by 3.18%, while EPS of $0.06 fell slightly below the $0.06 estimate. The culprit was a familiar one: interest income slid 11% to $51.50 million as lower interest rates more than offset 15% growth in customer funds to $7.60 billion. Strip that out, however, and the underlying business looked considerably more resilient, with revenue excluding interest climbing 11% and B2B volume accelerating 44% year over year. Analysts maintaining buy ratings pointed to that core momentum as the more meaningful signal. Payoneer appeared to agree, raising its full-year 2026 guidance to revenue of $1.10 billion to $1.14 billion and adjusted EBITDA of $285 million to $295 million, underscoring confidence in its B2B and upmarket expansion strategy.

Key Takeaways

  • • 44% B2B volume growth driven by strong performance in China, EMEA and APAC
  • • 11% revenue ex. interest growth year-over-year
  • • 22% growth in ARPU excluding interest income, seventh consecutive quarter of 20%+ growth
  • • 1bp SMB customer take rate expansion from mix shift towards higher yield products and fee/monetization initiatives
  • • 28% year-over-year enterprise payouts volume growth
  • • 15% year-over-year customer funds growth partially offsetting lower interest rates

PAYO Forward Guidance & Outlook

Payoneer raised its full-year 2026 guidance: revenue of $1,100 million to $1,140 million (comprising $900-$940 million revenue ex. interest and $200 million in interest income), transaction costs of approximately 15.0% of revenue, and adjusted EBITDA of $285 million to $295 million. Management highlighted accelerating revenue ex. interest, robust B2B growth driving take rate expansion, upmarket strategy traction with seven consecutive quarters of 20%+ ARPU ex. interest growth, and investments in stablecoin and agentic AI to support durable profitable growth.
