Assumptions & reasoning

  • The one line with a disclosed unit. Processed transactions by fiscal quarter, in billions: 2024 57.5, 55.5, 59.3, 61.5; 2025 63.8, 60.7, 65.4, 67.7; 2026 69.4, 66.1, 71.7. Yield per transaction reached $0.08427 in the June quarter, up 7.0% year over year, so revenue is outgrowing its own volume by seven points.
  • It is still a growth driver, deliberately. The engine's unit driver computes revenue as units times price and ignores the basis actual, so it would need the DESEASONALISED 71,386M transactions rather than the disclosed 71,700M, and a deseasonalised unit count displayed as if it were reported is worse than not showing one at all.
  • Seasonality [1.010, 0.969, 1.004, 1.017] is corroborated by an independent disclosed series: processed transactions themselves carry [1.023, 0.958, 1.003, 1.016] with a worst-quarter spread of 0.83% and a signal-to-noise ratio of 7.9. The revenue shape is the same shape, damped by a yield that moves the other way.
