Investing.com -- Adyen stock rose about 1% after Wells Fargo initiated coverage on the Dutch payment processor with an Overweight rating and a €1,753 price target.

The positive analyst stance comes as Wells Fargo sees an attractive setup for Adyen heading into 2026, with the company expected to overcome several current headwinds. According to Wells Fargo, estimates have been better calibrated following Adyen’s tariff-induced guidance reduction in August.

The bank noted that Wall Street is modeling just 1.5 percentage points of constant-currency revenue growth acceleration in 2026. However, tariff headwinds should lap in the second quarter of 2026, while challenges from Cash App and eBay - which impact volume more than revenue - should anniversary by the end of 2025.

Wells Fargo also highlighted that the contribution from the current year’s cohort of new merchants is outpacing the 2024 cohort, which it views as an encouraging sign for future growth.

The longer-term growth story for Adyen remains strong, according to Wells Fargo, underpinned by product innovation, disciplined pricing, and penetration of newer total addressable markets. While the competitive environment remains intense, the bank believes it is manageable for the payment processor.
