What Happened?
On February 3, 2026, PayPal announced a surprise leadership change, replacing Chief Executive Officer Alex Chriss. PayPal noted in its announcement “the pace of change and execution was not in line with the Board’s expectations.”
The leadership change coincided with the Company’s fourth quarter and full year 2025 earnings report, wherein PayPal missed consensus estimates for both revenue and profit, reporting adjusted earnings per share of $1.23 (vs. $1.29 expected) and revenue of $8.68 billion (vs. $8.79 billion expected). The Company further admitted “execution has not been where it needs to be, particularly in branded checkout.”
On this news, PayPal’s stock price fell as much as 20% during intraday trading on February 3, 2026, thereby injuring investors.
