Corrects headline to fix syntax error in company name
Aug 7 (Reuters) -Payment company Global Payments GPN.N beat profit estimates for second quarter on Wednesday, as consumer spending remains resilient despite worries about a economic slowdown.
WHY IT'S IMPORTANT
Despite recent economic data fueling recession fears, American consumers have remained resilient in face of higher-for-longer interest rates.
The payments sector has maintained steady growth in transaction volumes this year, even as some industry players have expressed concerns about increasing pressure on lower-income brackets.
Last month, industry leader Visa V.N reported revenue growth that fell short of estimates.
CONTEXT
Global Payments is a provider of payment technology and software solutions, processing transactions made through credit cards, debit cards, and digital payment methods.
The company provides a end-to-end global commerce platform in more than 100 countries.
BY THE NUMBERS
On an adjusted basis, the Atlanta-based company earned $2.93 per share in the three months ended June 30, beating analysts' average estimate of $2.90.
The company reported a total revenue of $2.57 billion for the second quarter, compared to $2.45 billion from a year ago quarter.
MARKET REACTION
Shares of the company jumped 7.6% in premarket trading
