Global Payments (GPN) - Payroll Business Divestiture Summary

Date: May 28, 2025
Announcement: GPN announced an agreement to sell its Payroll business for $1.1 billion.
Transaction Details: Sale to Acrisure; after-tax proceeds to be used for capital return. Expected to close in H2 2025.

Business Background:

• GPN's Payroll segment generated estimated revenue of ~$200 million in FY25, projected to grow low-double digits.
• The sale aligns with GPN’s broader divestiture strategy, targeting cumulative divestitures of $500-600 million.
• Previously divested businesses include AMD (sale for $1.1bn) and exits in APAC, totaling ~$500mn in revenue from divestitures.

Strategic Implications:

• Post-sale, GPN will retain a long-term referral agreement with Acrisure to provide integrated HCM/payroll solutions to merchants.
• After-tax proceeds will fund capital returns but not affect medium-term $7bn+ capital return targets.

Valuation & Risks:

• Current price target: $75.75 (HOLD rating).
• Key risks: macroeconomic factors, consumer spending, regulatory shifts, competitive pressures.
