  BREAKING: @PayPal to Cut 20% of Staff Amid Turnaround Push The job eliminations are part of PayPal’s new plans to accelerate its adoption of artificial intelligence and cut costs. The planned reduction would amount to 4,760 positions based on the 23,800 employees PayPal reported having at the end of 2025. The layoffs were reported earlier by Bloomberg. Chief Executive Enrique Lores told investors Tuesday that he thinks PayPal has underinvested in its technology platform and is falling behind other financial services companies. He wants to cut down on what he sees as unnecessary layers of the business to spend more on AI and becoming a technology leader. “PayPal needs to focus,” he said. “We need to recommit to the fundamentals.” Lores, who joined in March after Alex Chriss was ousted, said he wants to trim costs so the company can spend more on putting out new technology. “First, we will remove duplication and layers from our organizational structure. Second, we will accelerate our AI adoption and automation across our operations,” Lores said. Shares are down more than 8% at $45.93 on Tuesday. The cost-cutting efforts are expected to yield, at a minimum, $1.5 billion in gross run-rate savings over the next two to three years, management said. PayPal didn’t specify which areas of the business would see cost reductions. This year and next, PayPal will be rearranging its teams and building new systems and processes to run the business, management said. PayPal’s board brought in Lores, a former chief executive of HP, earlier this year because it was unhappy with “the pace of change” under Chriss. The company had been trying to diversify beyond its checkout business, which had seen growth slow since the pandemic. Lores said his highest priority is the checkout business, which lets customers use PayPal when making purchases with online retailers. He said he sees room for growth in buy now, pay later, as customers are increasingly looking for flexible payment options. His other focuses are financial services, Venmo and payment processing. PayPal reported a lower first-quarter profit of $1.11 billion, or $1.21 a share, compared with a profit of $1.29 billion, or $1.29 a share, a year earlier. Stripping out certain one-time items, adjusted earnings were $1.34 a share, ahead of the $1.27 that analysts were expecting, according to FactSet. During his time helming HP, Lores became known for streamlining the tech company and pivoting it toward AI and subscriptions. Paypal’s cost-cutting effort marks the second major initiative under Lores. Last week, PayPal said it would reorganize into three business units: Checkout Solutions & PayPal, Consumer Financial Services & Venmo, and Payment Services & Crypto. Source: Wall Street Journal

  $PYPL PayPal Q1 2026 — beat on revenue and EPS but the guide is the problem. Revenue $8.4B, beat $8.05B estimate, up 7% year over year EPS $1.34, beat $1.27 estimate Total payment volume $464B, up 11% year over year Active accounts 439M, up 1% year over year $1.5B cost savings plan over 2 to 3 years via AI efficiency and job cuts Q2 guide is the red flag — EPS expected to decline approximately 9%. That is a hard miss on expectations. FY guide also shows low single digit EPS decline. A company beating Q1 but guiding earnings lower for the full year is going to get sold. Revenue growth is real. The earnings trajectory is going the wrong way. Not financial advice.

  $FINX looks like a contrarian fintech play. It is down ~8%, while valuation has compressed to ~22x P/E — near the low end of its 10Y range and well below the fintech category median. Top holdings like PayPal, Block, Coinbase, Robinhood and SoFi still have upside if sentiment stabilizes. Messy basket, but the setup looks more reasonable now.

  $PYPL PayPal Q1 2026 results were released Stock down roughly 10% today despite revenue $8.35B (+7% YoY vs. $8.05B expected), adjusted EPS $1.34 against $1.27 consensus, TPV up 11% to $464B But management guided an adjusted EPS decline of roughly 9% YoY for next quarter Full-year guide was reiterated, not raised The structural picture keeps deteriorating: operating margin compressed 182 bps, GAAP net income fell 14%, active accounts were flat sequentially at 439M, and transactions per active account slipped 1% But for me the bull case isn't dead, Lores announced a $1.5B cost-reduction program and a three-segment reorganization that clearly sets up a possible Venmo spin-off Stock trades at 9x earnings with strong FCF and $1.5B in buybacks this quarter Thesis is about execution and corporate action, not growth I hold my initial position $PYPL

  @Venmo Your app is not allowing me to put in my deposits to verify my bank account, not allowing me to add a new debit card! Customer service is poor and could not help at all! Terrible! @paypal @venmo

  @oost_marcel @PayPal Growth masked a lot of operational complexity. Now efficiency is forcing companies to actually fix it.

  @PayPal will always close down African accounts just for receiving 50 dollars for a service you have worked for and earned it.

  @WSJ PayPal using AI to cut costs after profit fell is the corporate playbook in 2026. profits down? just say AI will fix it. every earnings call now is basically we lost money but were buying robots to replace the people who lost it
