Visa generated $40.0B in revenue for fiscal year 2025, a +11.3% year-over-year change. Net income reached $20.1B.
Visa is a powerhouse cash-generator benefitting from a 32% surge in services, but investors must balance this growth against an $11B incentive liability and a $168B settlement exposure that creates a massive, albeit unlikely, systemic tail risk. Quick take. Visa remains a high-quality, capital-generative payments franchise: Q1 net revenue grew 15% to $10.9B, processed transactions rose 9% to 69.4B and value-added services jumped 32% to $3.2B. The company produced $6.78B of operating cash in the quarter and finished with $23.18B of cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash, supporting dividends and aggressive buybacks ($3.8B this quarter, $21.1B remaining authorization).
