Adyen cuts 2025 guidance due to US tariff impact on APAC retailers

Published 14/08/2025, 07:44

Investing.com -- Adyen NV (AS:ADYEN) reported second-quarter net revenues of €559 million on Thursday, growing 20% at constant currency but missing analyst expectations by 2% as total payment volume (TPV) fell short by 4%.

The payment processor’s Q2 TPV grew 4% year-over-year to €334 billion, below consensus estimates of €346 billion. E-commerce volumes increased 33% quarter-over-quarter, while point-of-sale volumes rose 42%.

Adyen has lowered its 2025 guidance, now expecting second-half growth to match first-half levels at approximately 21% constant currency, compared to previous analyst expectations of 23%. The company attributed this reduction to changing market dynamics around US tariff policies affecting APAC-based e-commerce retailers.

For the first half of 2025, EBITDA increased 28% year-over-year to €544 million, slightly below consensus estimates of €551 million. EBITDA margins improved by 340 basis points to 50%. Free cash flow reached €475 million with a 43% margin, driving core cash to €4.43 billion.

The company added 114 full-time employees during the quarter, bringing total headcount to 4,568, and expects similar hiring pace in the second half of the year.

By business segment, Digital TPV decreased 10% year-over-year to €184 billion (55% of total volume), while Unified Commerce grew 33% to €101 billion (30% of total). Platforms increased 18% to €50 billion (15% of total), or 59% excluding eBay.

Regional performance in the first half showed EMEA leading with 21% growth, followed by North America at 20%, Latin America at 17%, while APAC slowed to 15%.

Despite the guidance cut, management reported strong customer acquisition and continued momentum in payment routing and platforms businesses.
