📊 MIXED WEX Q1 2026 revenue $673.8M, EPS $4.15, beating guidance; raises full-year outlook.
Revenue & Profitability
Revenue in Q1 2026 was $673.8 million, up 5.8% year-over-year. Adjusted net income per diluted share was $4.15, up 18.2% year-over-year. Adjusted operating income margin declined 50 basis points year-over-year due to higher credit losses, but normalized for that, margin expanded 130 basis points. Trailing twelve-month adjusted free cash flow was $671 million, up 14% year-over-year.
Outlook
Management expects margin expansion of approximately 75 basis points on a macro-neutral basis for the full year 2026. The guidance assumes fuel prices of $3.70 per gallon for the full year, no interest rate cuts, and no macroeconomic recovery. The Middle East conflict is having a small impact on travel volume trends entering Q2, reflected in guidance.
Growth Drivers
Key growth drivers include pricing actions in Mobility (which contributed ~$70 million in 2024-2025), the BP conversion win, and the 10-4 by WEX app for small owner-operators. In Benefits, HSA accounts grew 8% to 9.4 million, and custodial investment revenue grew 14.2%. In Corporate Payments, travel revenue grew ~12%, and direct AP purchase volume grew approximately 15%.
Balance Sheet & CapEx
Specific CapEx guidance was not discussed. The company is executing $50 million in cost saving actions in 2026, including savings from automation and AI integration, with a portion reinvested and the remainder flowing to margins. AI is being integrated into operations to improve customer outcomes and efficiency.
Margins
Q1 adjusted operating income margin declined 50 bps year-over-year due to a 200 bps impact from higher credit losses. Normalizing for that, margins expanded 130 bps. For 2026, the company expects ~75 bps margin expansion on a macro-neutral basis. Benefits segment margins may moderate through the year due to rate-related headwinds.
Key Risks
Risks flagged include fuel price volatility and spread movements in Europe (unfavorable $7.6 million impact in Q1), credit losses (increased from 12 to 19 basis points), and the impact of the Middle East conflict on travel volume (approximately $3 million quarterly in Middle East corridor). The company also faces macro uncertainty and potential customer demand shifts.

A comprehensive, bias-free framework for analyzing and ranking stocks by Financial Strength, Growth Potential, Competitive Edge, Management Quality, and Value.

Financial Model
Projections are built from each company's audited annual financials (Income Statement, Balance Sheet, Cash Flow) over the last 5 fiscal years. Forward assumptions — revenue growth %, EBITDA margin, D&A (USD millions), interest expense, tax rate, and capex — are AI-generated using historical context and refreshed twice a year: after the December results season and after the September/Q4 results season.

DCF Valuation
Fair Value = Σ(FCFt / (1+WACC)t) + Terminal Value. Terminal Value uses the Gordon Growth Model: FCF5 × (1+g) / (WACC−g). Default WACC: 10% (US risk-free ~4.5%, equity risk premium ~5.5%). Default terminal growth: 3% (long-run US nominal GDP proxy).

CAGR Tracker
Expected 5-year CAGR = (DCF Fair Value / Current Price)1/5 − 1. Assumes fair value is reached in exactly 5 years — a mechanical estimate only.

Non-US ADR companies may have currency conversion inaccuracies. Models are point-in-time and do not update intra-quarter or account for M&A, macro shocks, or extraordinary items.
