BTIG has revised its price target for Fiserv (FI, Financial), lowering it to $215 from the previous $240, while maintaining a Buy rating. This adjustment follows insights from CFO Bob Hau at a recent conference, where he highlighted that Clover's Q2 volume growth is aligning with the 8% growth experienced in Q1. If the "normalized" growth rate for Clover's Gross Payment Volume (GPV) stands at 11% for both Q1 and Q2, this represents a decrease from the 14% growth in Q4 of 2024.
The analyst points out that the latest guidance suggests a more substantial acceleration in the second half of FY25 than anticipated by both the firm and investors. Consequently, BTIG has opted to apply a lower FY26 price-to-earnings (P/E) multiple, taking into consideration the execution risks associated with this acceleration.
