"We are pleased to have again delivered results in the second quarter modestly ahead of our expectations, while continuing to drive significant positive change in our organization through our transformation program,” said Cameron Bready, chief executive officer. "This performance highlights not only the resilience of our business model, but also our team's ability to execute at scale and advance a substantial number of key initiatives while delivering on our business outcomes.”

Bready continued, “The successful launch of Genius this quarter was a critical milestone in our transformation program, and we are delighted with the early momentum we are building. We also completed the rollout of our revamped sales incentive plan across all of our U.S. sales teams as we continue to implement our salesforce of the future initiative. We remain on track to execute much of our transformation agenda during 2025, and have accelerated a number of initiatives to better position us for the integration of Worldpay at close in the first half of 2026.

"To that end, we are making solid progress on the acquisition of Worldpay and divestiture of our Issuer Solutions business to accelerate our transformation and unlock value for shareholders. We have initiated all of the required regulatory approval processes for the transactions, and notably cleared antitrust review in the U.S. upon the expiry of the HSR waiting period in July. Further, we have launched integration planning activities, with an emphasis on accelerating growth, enhancing our competitiveness and realizing targeted synergies, all while unifying as one company under a single brand and combining the best talent from both organizations to build the industry’s strongest team. We are preparing for a seamless close and our work has further increased our conviction in revenue and expense synergy opportunities we outlined in April.”

Bready concluded, “We are more confident than ever the combined business with Worldpay will meaningfully enhance our financial profile, deliver sustainable performance, and unlock value for our shareholders."
