Nexi reported a solid third quarter and a new role in the digital euro infrastructure during the week. On Thursday, November 5, the payments group said revenue for the first nine months of 2026 rose 1.1 percent year on year to 2.678 billion euros, according to Il Sole 24 ORE.

EBITDA increased 0.3 percent to 1.4 billion euros, while the margin reached 52.3 percent. Third-quarter revenue grew 1.3 percent to 942 million euros, with EBITDA up 0.6 percent to 530 million euros. Nexi attributed the improvement mainly to a re-acceleration in Merchant Solutions.

Merchant Momentum Supports Outlook

The company kept its 2026 guidance unchanged. Net revenue growth is expected to remain broadly in line with 2025, while EBITDA should stay broadly stable in absolute terms after strategic investments. Nexi also continues to target excess cash generation of approximately 750 million euros.

The figures include relevant distortions from the loss of certain banking clients following mergers and acquisitions and other one-off effects. On an underlying basis, revenue growth reached 4 percent in both the first nine months and the third quarter, giving investors a clearer view of operating momentum.

Digital Euro Infrastructure Expands

On October 30, the European Central Bank selected Nexi Payments and Deutsche Telekom Business Solutions as one of two network service provider groupings for the digital euro platform. The first contract took effect on September 28 and initially covers pilot connectivity. Both selected providers are expected to be ready from 2029 for possible issuance, subject to legislation and a decision by the ECB Governing Council.

The real-time quote of Nexi stock was 4.46 euros on Lang & Schwarz at 12:20:41 CET on Saturday, November 7.
