Zip reaffirmed its fiscal 2027 cash EBTDA guidance of AUD 340 million, despite a hit from an external fraud event in the US, higher US bad debts, and rising funding costs. First-quarter cash EBTDA rose 3% to AUD 65 million, or nearly 20% excluding AUD 10 million of fraud costs. Shares fell 29%.
Zip may scale fast in the US and build a strong enough network that it can maintain its market share in its target market for customers and merchants against larger BNPL providers.
Stricter credit regulations on BNPL could make it tougher to sign new customers and impede the company’s revenue growth.
