The company reported Q4 recurring revenue of 3.7 billion reais, falling short of the Ibes estimate of 3.8 billion reais. Furthermore, its adjusted net profit for the quarter was 707 million reais, missing the analyst consensus of 743 million reais. In U.S. dollar terms, quarterly sales of $690.086 million also missed the market expectation of $717.930 million.
While StoneCo posted a year-over-year increase in adjusted earnings per share, the misses on key top-line and profit metrics appear to have driven negative investor sentiment in the extended session. The company also provided financial guidance for 2026 and 2027 during the earnings release.
