Payoneer Withdraws Annual Guidance Amid Trade Uncertainties

Payoneer Global Inc. has recently taken the significant step of withdrawing its financial guidance for 2025. This decision, attributed to prominent trade uncertainties, influenced the company's stock, which closed at $6.05 on May 7, 2025, resulting in a market capitalization of approximately $2.88 billion.

This unexpected move comes after various analyst ratings and assessments. Keefe, Bruyette & Woods downgraded their rating for Payoneer to 'Market Perform' in December 2024 but retained a $12 price target. Meanwhile, in April 2024, Needham maintained a 'Buy' rating, albeit lowering their price target from $8.00 to $7.00, acknowledging strong e-commerce activity and solid product performance.

Despite the current volatility, Payoneer reported strong financial results in previous quarters, including a 19% increase in total revenue for the third quarter of 2024. The company is also advancing its strategic acquisition of a Chinese payment service provider, anticipated to finalize within the first half of 2025. These strategic steps are expected to enhance Payoneer's market positioning during this uncertain period.

Toyota Forecasts 21% Profit Drop Amid Tariffs and Costs

4 minutes agoTM

Toyota Motor Corporation has announced a projected 21% decline in operating profit for the fiscal year ending March 2026. The company expects profits to fall to ¥3.8 trillion ($26 billion), down from the previous year's ¥4.8 trillion. This announcement comes as the company faces multiple economic pressures affecting its bottom line. Several factors have contributed to Toyota's anticipated downturn. Notably, the 25% tariffs imposed by the United States on imported vehicles and auto parts are expected to significantly impact profits. Additionally, rising material costs for essential raw materials like steel and aluminum are increasing production expenses, said Reuters. Currency fluctuations, particularly a stronger yen, have also adversely affected the value of Toyota's overseas earnings when converted back to Japanese currency. Lastly, higher vehicle prices due to these increased costs may dampen consumer demand, adding further pressure on the company's profitability. In response to these challenges, Toyota is exploring strategic moves, including a potential $42 billion buyout of its subsidiary, Toyota Industries, cited as one of the world's largest buyouts by the Financial Times. To counteract some of the pressures from tariffs and currency issues, the company is considering relocating production of its RAV4 SUV to the U.S. Amid these developments, Toyota continues to focus on the robust demand for its hybrid vehicles to buffer some of these financial impacts.
