Block shares jump after new three-year outlook calls for accelerating growth, expanded buyback

Shares of the Jack Dorsey-led Block surged on Wednesday after the company laid out a three-year financial outlook that calls for faster growth and substantially higher profitability.

At its first investor day since 2022, Block said it expects gross profit to grow at a mid-teens annual rate through 2028, reaching roughly $15.8 billion, according to CNBC.

The stock was halted shortly before the guidance was released, then jumped roughly 8% to $62 once trading resumed, according to The Block's price page.

Adjusted operating income is projected to rise about 30% per year over the same period, topping $4.6 billion by 2028, while adjusted earnings per share are expected to climb into the low-30% range.

Block also enlarged its stock buyback capacity with an additional $5 billion authorization, supplementing the $1.1 billion left from the previous allotment as of September.

The outlook comes two weeks after Block’s latest results, which showed strong gross profit growth but another revenue miss, and follows a three-week slide that pushed shares just above $57 before today’s rebound.

Analysts at William Blair see Block as well-positioned as consumers shift toward fast-turn, app-based borrowing tools, pointing to Cash App’s 134% jump in Borrow usage and calling the company undervalued with more than 40% upside.

Square, the firm's merchant payments unit, is also seeing early traction from refreshed underwriting models and broader distribution.

Block has been expanding deeper into crypto payments as well. Cash App recently added support for stablecoins and Lightning-based bitcoin payments, features that link the app more tightly with Square’s merchant network.

Why It Could Outperform Pepe Coin And Tron With Over $7m Already Raised

The post Why It Could Outperform Pepe Coin And Tron With Over $7m Already Raised appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Crypto News 17 September 2025 | 20:26 While meme tokens like Pepe Coin and established networks such as Tron attract headlines, many investors are now searching for projects that combine innovation, revenue-sharing and real-world utility. BlockchainFX ($BFX), currently in presale at $0.024 ahead of an expected $0.05 launch, is quickly becoming one of the best cryptos to buy today. With $7m already secured and a unique model spanning multiple asset classes, it is positioning itself as a decentralised super app and a contender to surpass older altcoins. Early Presale Pricing Creates A Rare Entry Point BlockchainFX’s presale pricing structure has been designed to reward early participants. At $0.024, buyers secure a lower entry price than later rounds, locking in a cost basis more than 50% below the projected $0.05 launch price. As sales continue to climb beyond $7m, each new stage automatically increases the token price. This built-in mechanism creates a clear advantage for early investors and explains why the project is increasingly cited in “best presales to buy now” discussions across the crypto space. High-Yield Staking Model Shares Platform Revenue Beyond its presale appeal, BlockchainFX is creating a high-yield staking model that gives holders a direct share of platform revenue. Every time a trade occurs on its platform, 70% of trading fees flow back into the $BFX ecosystem: 50% of collected fees are automatically distributed to stakers in both BFX and USDT. 20% is allocated to daily buybacks of $BFX, adding demand and price support. Half of the bought-back tokens are permanently burned, steadily reducing supply. Rewards are based on the size of each member’s BFX holdings and capped at $25,000 USDT per day to ensure sustainability. This structure transforms token ownership from a speculative bet into an income-generating position, a rare feature among today’s altcoins. A Multi-Asset Platform…
