Briefing
Visa's Q2 2021 results reflected a decrease in net revenues, primarily due to a decline in cross-border volume, which was partially offset by growth in payments volume and processed transactions.
Visa Inc. reported a decrease in net revenues by 2% to $5.7 billion. GAAP net income was $3.0 billion, with an EPS of $1.38. Payments volume increased by 11%, and processed transactions grew by 8%.
- GAAP and non-GAAP net income reached $3.0B or $1.38 per share.
- Net revenues totaled $5.7B, a 2% decrease, but would have been approximately flat if service revenues were recognized on the current quarter’s payments volume.
- Key business driver growth rates are beginning to ramp up, reflecting the depressed levels in 2020 due to COVID-19.
- Payments volume and processed transactions were higher than fiscal second quarter 2019 levels, while cross-border volumes excluding intra-Europe remained lower.

Forward guidance
Given the continuing impact of COVID-19 and the significant uncertainty in the global economy, it is difficult to reasonably estimate the Company's annual results; therefore we are not providing a fiscal full-year 2021 outlook at this time.
