Kovitz Core Equity Strategy said the following about Fiserv, Inc. (NYSE: FI) In its second quarter of 2025. Investor letter:
“Fiserv, Inc. (NYSE: Fi) Shares decreased by 22% through Q2 after the company announced that volumetric growth was having fun in the company’s product line to pay Clover. Clover is a contemporary product for selling hardware and software that increases payment volumes in average teens and mid -to high range revenue. For Q1 2025, Fiserv said that due to some seasonal factors and some transitional comparative noise during the year, the increase in Clover volume is only +8%. The market reaction to the missing higher expectations was highly negative, perhaps because the clover was considered as a key Fiserv growth engine, or perhaps because the new CEO Mike Lions had just gone into the role, replacing the prices of exit, Frank Bissyano, who began his new position leading to US administration. Uncertainty can accompany changes in management, although we feel good about the deep and experienced Fiserv team. The expectations for power supply for 2025 for Fiserv have not changed. For Clover, a number of positive products improvements, launching new geographical markets, increasing distribution partnerships and direct sales support, and the general strategic road card keep us positive in the long run. In addition, revenue is accelerated in the Fiserv financial solution segment, which represents half of the revenue and more than half of the profits. Fiserv’s shares are traded with many reasonable winnings from the midst of leading, which seems cheap to its prospects for growth and the broader stock market. We added to the stock decline and we are optimistic about his or her return profile. “
