Repay Holdings Corp (RPAY) (Q3 2026) Earnings Call Highlights: Revenue Nearly Doubles

Repay Holdings (RPAY) reported Q3 2026 earnings, with revenue nearly doubling due to strong business payments and Kubra integration. Kubra contributed $65M, up 8% YoY. Political media revenue exceeded forecasts, and AI deployment improved efficiencies. However, core consumer payments grew only 0.3% YoY, leading to lowered full-year organic growth guidance to 5%-6%. Free cash flow was negative $21.1M, and gross margin fell to 65%. Management expects consumer payments to rebound in 2027.
