PayPal reports Q2 2026 results on July 28. Analyst consensus sits at adjusted EPS of approx. $1.28, already reflecting management's guidance for a 'high-single-digit EPS decline' (~9% YoY). Context: PayPal's Q2 2025 benefited from a one-time partner renewal and favourable credit performance, raising the comparison base. Despite this structural headwind, US fintech stocks tend to beat after already-lowered expectations. PayPal beat consensus in Q1 2026. Without specific Polymarket/Kalshi quotes: calibrated at 60%.
