When is PYPL’s next earnings date?
Tuesday, October 27, 2026estimated
Expected around Oct 27 — based on last year’s report on Oct 28, 2025. We have not yet seen the company's announcement of the date.
How we estimate
The estimate is the date of the same-quarter report a year ago, per the company’s SEC filing, moved forward 52 weeks (same weekday). Companies usually keep the same week; the date will be replaced once PYPL announces it.
Same quarter a year ago (ended September 30, 2025): revenue $8.42B, EPS (GAAP) $1.30
How we calculate
Year-ago figures are GAAP, from the company's SEC filings (XBRL); EPS is diluted.
What time does PYPL report? Usually before market open: the last 4 results releases reached the SEC at 7:02 am, 7:03 am, 7:08 am, 7:01 am ET.

$ millions, annual 10-K reports on SEC EDGAR (US GAAP)*. History starts in 2013: earlier years aren’t in the company’s SEC filings (it’s younger or was spun off).
How we calculate
Figures are annual report lines; if a year was later restated (discontinued operations, mergers), we use the latest filing that shows it. Free cash flow is operating cash flow minus capital expenditures; dividends are cash paid to common shareholders during the year. “—” means the line isn’t in the filing.
