Headquartered in Denver, CO Fiscal year ends December NYSE: WU westernunion.com
The Western Union Company (NYSE: WU) provides cross-border, cross-currency money movement, payments and digital financial services. It serves consumers, businesses, financial institutions and governments across more than 200 countries and territories and nearly 130 currencies, connecting to bank accounts, digital wallets, cards and a network of hundreds of thousands of retail agent locations.
The company reports two segments:
- **Consumer Money Transfer:** about 85% of revenue. It includes retail agent-based remittances and the fast-growing Branded Digital channel (websites, mobile apps and digital wallet remittances). Branded Digital accounts for 32% of CMT revenue and 45% of transactions. The segment is managed across North America, EU & CIS, MEASA, LACA and APAC regions.
- **Consumer Services:** about 15% of revenue. It includes bill payment, check cashing, money orders and a media network.
The company is executing its 'Beyond' strategy, which includes a cost efficiency program launched in mid-2026 and investments in digital capabilities, AI and stablecoin and next-generation money movement initiatives. It has a pending acquisition of International Money Express (Intermex) that awaits reinstated California DFPI approval, and it is completing the sale of its Russian entity. Updated
Two straight quarters of misses ended with a 24% earnings beat, though a 9% adjusted tax rate and a smaller share count did much of the work. The bigger catalyst is the Intermex deal, which closes by November 10 or can be terminated, deciding full-year revenue growth or decline.
