Zip Co (Z1P) shares fall despite nearly doubling transaction volume
Z1P -1.46%: the BNPL company posted 1st quarter numbers with significant growth not enough to impress the market. Transaction Value toped $1.9b, up 101% for the year though this does come with a number of acquisitions contributing to the headline. International was strong, UK tracking to over $100m in annualised TV just a quarter after launching and USA up nearly 200% compared to the 1st quarter of 2021. Revenues came in at $132.8m, up 8% on pcp. It remains cheap vs peers, particularly Afterpay, though they are under a takeover offer. Zip will also have to contend with more and more competitors including Apple, as well as the big banks conjuring up new, more flexible products.
