Q1 Recap: RATING BUY

The Positives: (1) Q1 beat with +26% organic (NYAX-def) is a good start, and with FX TICKER NYAX

tailwinds likely to persist for the greater part of the year, 2026 guidance feels achievable; PRICE $68.51^

(2) Hardware sales continue to perform, partly pushed due to the 2G upgrade cycle which PRICE TARGET | % TO PT $79.80 ($65.22) | +16%

came through later than expected as VPOS Media for Europe wasn't ready yet in mid-2025;

(3) Customer net adds (+5k) remained strong; pointing to the experienced strong underlying

growth momentum. FY (Dec) CHANGE TO JEFe JEF vs CONS

The Negatives: (1) TPV solid, but still below our expectations, despite FX tailwinds, pointing REV NM NM +2% +1%

towards fewer EV tailwinds than we anticipated, which is more likely a timing than execution EPS +12% +5% +7% +3%
