Bulls say / Bears say

Mastercard’s Q2 2025 net revenue grew 17% YoY to $8.1 billion, exceeding estimates, as adjusted EPS of $4.15 topped consensus, underscoring resilient consumer spending and strong transaction growth (Reuters).
Value-added services revenue, including fraud prevention and digital solutions, expanded 22% on a currency-neutral basis, diversifying growth drivers beyond transaction fees (Reuters).
Cross-border transaction volume jumped 15% YoY, fueled by a recovery in international travel, bolstering Mastercard’s high-margin revenue streams (Reuters).
Europe’s largest retailers have petitioned the European Commission to regulate Mastercard’s interchange fees, increasing the likelihood of regulatory fee caps that could limit future revenue growth (Reuters).
The European Commission has widened its antitrust investigation into Mastercard’s fee structures, distributing detailed questionnaires to stakeholders and signaling possible requirements for fee transparency and reforms to the fee structure (Reuters).
Mastercard’s Q2 effective income tax rate increased to 20.8% from 17.3% YoY, driven by the 15% global minimum tax (‘Pillar 2 Rules’), raising the company’s tax expense and potentially putting pressure on free cash flow (SEC Filing).
