What the filing says
Western Union reported Q2 2026 revenue of $1.013B (down 1% YoY), GAAP EPS of $0.24 (down from $0.37), and adjusted EPS of $0.31 (down from $0.42). The company cited weakness in Americas retail operations and delays in closing the Intermex acquisition (announced August 2025, closing now assumed September 1, 2026) as drivers of margin pressure and lower profitability. Operating margin compressed from 19% to 13% GAAP; adjusted margin fell from 19% to 15%. Full-year 2026 guidance raised to 4–6% adjusted revenue growth and $1.25–$1.35 adjusted EPS, assuming Intermex closes September 1, 2026.
Why this rating
Revenue stagnation and 35% EPS decline reflect operational headwinds (Americas retail softness, margin erosion, higher opex). Intermex delay is material but not yet a deal-killer. Company ~$2.7B market cap; adjusted EPS guidance still implies modest growth if deal closes. Moderate trajectory risk; not transformational but notable deterioration.
