Executive summary

Fiserv provides payment and financial technology to banks, credit unions and merchants. It runs the core systems that financial institutions use for accounts, loans and digital banking, processes card and electronic payments, and supplies the Clover point-of-sale platform to small businesses. Customers are therefore financial institutions and merchants of all sizes, and its business spans both merchant payments and bank technology.

Revenue is largely recurring, coming from processing fees, software and service charges, and fees tied to payment volumes. It was $20.9 billion over the last twelve months, with growth of 6.1% a year across the last three years. The operating margin is 22.3%, and the business earns a profit of 7% on the capital invested in it. Net debt is 5.8 times EBITDA, and no dividend is paid.

StocksXray gives Fiserv Inc an X-Ray Score of 49 out of 100 (high confidence), ahead of 41% of the S&P 500 stocks in its sector. Its strongest lens is valuation (80) and its weakest is financial health (21).

Our fair value blend is $126.17 (range $112.66 to $141.31). At $47.55 the stock trades 62% below that blend, so the label is "Data under review" with medium model uncertainty. Fair value is a range, not a price target.

How to read this report

Every number comes from SEC filings, end-of-day prices and the StocksXray models described on the methodology page. The X-Ray Score ranks each metric against the company's own sector. Fair value blends three models and carries a typical error of about 40%, so treat it as a range. Analyst ratings, price targets and earnings-call summaries are not part of this report. Educational research, not financial advice; read the disclaimer.
