It’s on pace to bring in $1.5 billion of revenue for 2021, operating near breakeven, but the market cap is just $5.7 billion.\nThat’s cheaper than companies like&nbsp;Fiserv(NASDAQ:FISV) and&nbsp;Fidelity National Information Systems(NYSE:FIS).\nThe lower price is due to PaySafe’s debt, used to fund acquisitions and perceived risk. A growing portion of its processing volume comes from Latin America. It’s an aggressive global acquirer. It’s also into online gambling and is based in London rather than the U.S.\nStill, analysts are flummoxed. All seven who follow it at Tipranks are&nbsp;screaming“Buy,” but the stock is down nearly 50% in 2021. Still, there are reasons for caution.\nFirst, PaySafe came public through a special purpose acquisition company (SPAC). The deal went down in March, through&nbsp;Foley Trasimene Acquisition II, which traded as BFT.\nIts initial valuation was$9 billion.&nbsp;Bill Foley, the Foley in Foley Trasimene, knows the payment business. He’s vice-chairman of Fidelity National. Yet since coming public as PSFE stock, momentum has been nowhere but down.\nSecond, PaySafe is relentlessly acquisitive. The acquisitions are adding to PaySafe’s debt. They could water down the stock. The company made three acquisitions&nbsp;during August alone. Two were in the fast-growing Latin American market.\nThen there are the niches it’s choosing for growth. PaySafe is big in gambling, including&nbsp;online sports betting, just starting upin the U.S.&nbsp;While it’s a processor, not a gaming stock, some analysts&nbsp;lump it&nbsp;in with the gambling plays.\nGambling and PSFE Stock\nAnalysts have been looking at the risks, however, and pounding the table for PaySafe stock.\nOur Tom Kerr calls PaySafe a “pick and shovel play” &nbsp;in that it offers payment tools. It doesn’t sell digital goods through Fortnite, it just processes transactions for those who do. While it’s expanding globally, almost half the revenue still comes from North America.\nPaySafe has been paying up for acquisitions. Its two Latin American purchases took its leverage ratio to 5. That means there’s now a lot of debt on the books.\nThere was&nbsp;over $2 billion of it in June, even before the new deals. Potentially,it could have a liquidity problem, as our Stavros Georgiadis notes.\nGiven the current problems atEvergrande, and PaySafe’s international footprint, some investors may be holding back.\nWhile conscious of the risks our Mark Hake also&nbsp;likes PaySafe. He estimates it’s worth $8 billion, 25% more than it’s now trading for.\nHe called its latest quarterly results, released Aug. 16,&nbsp;excellent. They showed a net income of $6.6 million on revenue of $384 million, up 12.6% from a year earlier.\nThe Bottom Line\nSomeone is going to buy this company.\nProcessors are looking for growth and innovation. They’re all focused on&nbsp;Square(NASDAQ:SQ), which has only grown more popular as it has gone into various banking and investment niches.\nGambling doesn’t scare the payments industry. Casino contracts are highly prized. Processors don’t hand gamblers money they don’t have. When the gambler is out of money, they reject the transaction. Many casinos have special rules for gambler transactions aimed at keeping them, and the gamblers, out of trouble.\nThis means the downside risk of PaySafe stock is limited. There remain potential suitors for the company. The most likely is Fidelity National, which has a market cap of nearly $75 billion. But if Foley sees a better bid, he will certainly take it.\nThe debt means PaySafe’s enterprise value is fair, not low. But you can buy it here.","source":"lsy1606302653667","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>PaySafe Stock Is Priced Right, But It Also Could Be an Acquisition Target</title>\n<style type=\"text/css\">\na,abbr,acronym,address,applet,article,aside,audio,b,big,blockquote,body,canvas,caption,center,cite,code,dd,del,details,dfn,div,dl,dt,\nem,embed,fieldset,figcaption,figure,footer,form,h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6,header,hgroup,html,i,iframe,img,ins,kbd,label,legend,li,mark,menu,nav,\nobject,ol,output,p,pre,q,ruby,s,samp,section,small,span,strike,strong,sub,summary,sup,table,tbody,td,tfoot,th,thead,time,tr,tt,u,ul,var,video{ font:inherit;margin:0;padding:0;vertical-align:baseline;border:0 }\nbody{ font-size:16px; line-height:1.5; color:#999; background:transparent; }\n.wrapper{ overflow:hidden;word-break:break-all;padding:10px; }\nh1,h2{ font-weight:normal; line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:.6em; }\nh3,h4,h5,h6{ line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:1em; }\nh1{ font-size:24px; }\nh2{ font-size:20px; }\nh3{ font-size:18px; }\nh4{ font-size:16px; }\nh5{ font-size:14px; }\nh6{ font-size:12px; }\np,ul,ol,blockquote,dl,table{ margin:1.2em 0; }\nul,ol{ margin-left:2em; }\nul{ list-style:disc; }\nol{ list-style:decimal; }\nli,li p{ margin:10px 0;}\nimg{ max-width:100%;display:block;margin:0 auto 1em; }\nblockquote{ color:#B5B2B1; border-left:3px solid #aaa; padding:1em; }\nstrong,b{font-weight:bold;}\nem,i{font-style:italic;}\ntable{ width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:1px;margin:1em 0;font-size:.9em; }\nth,td{ padding:5px;text-align:left;border:1px solid #aaa; }\nth{ font-weight:bold;background:#5d5d5d; }\n.symbol-link{font-weight:bold;}\n/* header{ border-bottom:1px solid #494756; } */\n.title{ margin:0 0 8px;line-height:1.3;color:#ddd; }\n.meta {color:#5e5c6d;font-size:13px;margin:0 0 .5em; }\na{text-decoration:none; color:#2a4b87;}\n.meta .head { display: inline-block; overflow: hidden}\n.head .h-thumb { width: 30px; height: 30px; margin: 0; padding: 0; border-radius: 50%; float: left;}\n.head .h-content { margin: 0; padding: 0 0 0 9px; float: left;}\n.head .h-name {font-size: 13px; color: #eee; margin: 0;}\n.head .h-time {font-size: 11px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;line-height: 11px;}\n.small {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.9); -webkit-transform: scale(0.9); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.smaller {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.8); -webkit-transform: scale(0.8); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.bt-text {font-size: 12px;margin: 1.5em 0 0 0}\n.bt-text p {margin: 0}\n</style>\n</head>\n<body>\n<div class=\"wrapper\">\n<header>\n<h2 class=\"title\">\nPaySafe Stock Is Priced Right, But It Also Could Be an Acquisition Target\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-09-24 20:42 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://investorplace.com/2021/09/psfe-stock-is-priced-right-but-it-also-could-be-an-acquisition-target/>InvestorPlace</a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\nPSFE may be an OK investment on its own, but its debt could be an issue.\n\nIn a world where investors pay for payment innovation, Paysafe Ltd stock is unique.\nThis is a global payments processor whose ...\n\n<a href=\"https://investorplace.com/2021/09/psfe-stock-is-priced-right-but-it-also-could-be-an-acquisition-target/\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"PSFE":"Paysafe Ltd"},"source_url":"https://investorplace.com/2021/09/psfe-stock-is-priced-right-but-it-also-could-be-an-acquisition-target/","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/e9f99090a1c2ed51c021029395664489","article_id":"1167249117","content_text":"PSFE may be an OK investment on its own, but its debt could be an issue.\n\nIn a world where investors pay for payment innovation, Paysafe Ltd stock is unique.\nThis is a global payments processor whose stock is cheap.
