The company's fourth-quarter earnings continued the trend, and investors were happy enough to keep bidding up its stock. But after the stock's recent surge, should they be confident about Square's growth opportunities?\nWhat does Square do?\nSquare is afintech (financial technology)company that operates two payment-related ecosystems. Its classic sellers business, which comprises business solutions such as its famous square card reader, has seen slowed growth during the pandemic from its strong storefront presence. Revenue increased 5% and gross profit increased 13%.\nThe company invested in omnichannel capabilities to reach more clients and offer greater options for storefronts, and omnichannel gross payment volume increased by a third, accounting for half of the total. Square sees mid-size businesses as a huge addressable market, and this category demonstrated high potential for profitability, with gross profit growing at double the rate of other categories.\nIts Cash App ecosystem was a huge success as people began to rely more heavily on digital payments while under lockdown. But it wasBitcoin(CRYPTO:BTC)that made the biggest splash on Square's business. Revenue for the company increased 141% in Q4, but without Bitcoin, is was only up 23%.\nIn the fourth quarter, Cash App active customers increased 50% over 2019 to 36 million, and Square only spent $5 per customer in acquisition cost. There are 80 million customers who have transacted at least once with the Cash App system, and Square is focusing on creating greater value for customers to keep them loyal. Its results so far indicate that new transacting customers adopt other Cash App features like Cash Card and Bitcoin trading in greater numbers. It's also a key to greater profitability, as gross profit per customer increased 70% over the prior year in the fourth quarter.\nBitcoin is increasingly becoming an important part of Cash App. Bitcoin trading grew more than 250% year over year, and Square bought $190 million of the cryptocurrency in the fourth quarter, because it sees it as a necessary internet currency. CEO Jack Dorsey said on the recent earnings call, \"We believe it has the highest probability of empowering more people in the economy in a fair way.\"So long as Bitcoin's price is flying, it's great for Cash App.\nSo is growth finished?\nThe short answer is no.\nStorefronts struggled during the pandemic, but as lockdowns ease, seller business revenue and GPV should see higher growth. Electronic payments are still in their infancy, and Square is still in high-growth mode, especially Cash App.\nThe best indication of growth, in my opinion, is its ease in pivoting into new businesses, especially ahead of the curve. Its white square card reader was a real and useful innovation when it was launched, and Cash App expanded its operations with user-friendly features. The focus on Bitcoin makes Cash App somewhat risky, as we saw high volatility in its stock price last week. But it was also a harbinger of the current obsession with cryptocurrency, and if that changes, Square is likely to make that decision faster than others.\nAbout the stock price\nShares of Square trade at an outrageous valuation of roughly 600 times trailing-12-month earnings. But it has rewarded investors in the past, gaining more than 400% over the past three years. Considering the company's bright future, I still think it can continue to deliver growth.","kind":"news","is_publish_news":true,"is_publish_highlight":true,"is_publish_live":false,"is_publish_wemedia":null,"editions":null,"column":"","sentiment":"0","news_tag":"","news_rank":0,"symbols":[],"gpt_button":0,"need_auth":false,"code":"91000000","status":"200"},"commentList":[{"id":320983470,"gmtCreate":1614999607190,"gmtModify":1703484107919,"author":{"id":"3566183313072109","authorId":"3566183313072109","name":"orrox","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d63eb4c08ebc58d4fd3cc57ed0a98e83","vip":1,"crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"authorIdStr":"3566183313072109","idStr":"3566183313072109"},"htmlText":"Yes!","listText":"Yes!","text":"Yes!","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/320983470","repostId":1135874277,"repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"1135874277","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1614849588,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1135874277?lang=zh_CN&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-03-04 17:19","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Can Square Be a Great Growth Stock?<blockquote>Square能成为一只伟大的成长型股票吗？</blockquote>","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1135874277","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"Square has had mixed results throughout the pandemic that are representative of its varied business.","content":"Square&nbsp;has had mixed results throughout the pandemic that are representative of its varied business.

Electronic payments are still in their infancy, and Square is still in high-growth mode, especially Cash App.<blockquote>店面在疫情期间陷入困境，但随着封锁的放松，卖家业务收入和GPV应该会出现更高的增长。电子支付仍处于起步阶段，Square仍处于高增长模式，尤其是Cash App。</blockquote> The best indication of growth, in my opinion, is its ease in pivoting into new businesses, especially ahead of the curve.

But it was also a harbinger of the current obsession with cryptocurrency, and if that changes, Square is likely to make that decision faster than others.<blockquote>在我看来，增长的最佳标志是它很容易转向新业务，尤其是在曲线之前。它的白色方形读卡器在推出时是一项真正有用的创新，Cash App通过用户友好的功能扩大了其业务。对比特币的关注使得Cash App存在一定风险，因为我们上周看到其股价波动较大。但这也是当前对加密货币痴迷的先兆，如果这种情况发生变化，Square可能会比其他人更快地做出决定。</blockquote> About the stock price<blockquote>关于股价</blockquote> Shares of Square trade at an outrageous valuation of roughly 600 times trailing-12-month earnings.

Its classic sellers business, which comprises business solutions such as its famous square card reader, has seen slowed growth during the pandemic from its strong storefront presence. Revenue increased 5% and gross profit increased 13%.<blockquote>Square是一家金融科技公司，运营着两个与支付相关的生态系统。其经典卖家业务包括著名的square读卡器等商业解决方案，但由于其强大的店面存在，在疫情期间增长放缓。营收增长5%，毛利增长13%。</blockquote> The company invested in omnichannel capabilities to reach more clients and offer greater options for storefronts, and omnichannel gross payment volume increased by a third, accounting for half of the total. Square sees mid-size businesses as a huge addressable market, and this category demonstrated high potential for profitability, with gross profit growing at double the rate of other categories.<blockquote>该公司投资于全渠道能力，以接触更多客户并为店面提供更多选择，全渠道总支付量增长了三分之一，占总额的一半。Square将中型企业视为一个巨大的潜在市场，该类别显示出很高的盈利潜力，毛利润增长率是其他类别的两倍。</blockquote> Its Cash App ecosystem was a huge success as people began to rely more heavily on digital payments while under lockdown. But it wasBitcoin(CRYPTO:BTC)that made the biggest splash on Square's business. Revenue for the company increased 141% in Q4, but without Bitcoin, is was only up 23%.<blockquote>随着人们在封锁期间开始更加依赖数字支付，其Cash App生态系统取得了巨大成功。但它是比特币（加密货币：BTC）这给Square的业务带来了最大的轰动。该公司第四季度收入增长了141%，但如果没有比特币，收入仅增长了23%。</blockquote> In the fourth quarter, Cash App active customers increased 50% over 2019 to 36 million, and Square only spent $5 per customer in acquisition cost. There are 80 million customers who have transacted at least once with the Cash App system, and Square is focusing on creating greater value for customers to keep them loyal. Its results so far indicate that new transacting customers adopt other Cash App features like Cash Card and Bitcoin trading in greater numbers. It's also a key to greater profitability, as gross profit per customer increased 70% over the prior year in the fourth quarter.<blockquote>第四季度，Cash App活跃客户比2019年增长了50%，达到3600万，而Square在每个客户的获取成本上仅花费了5美元。有8000万客户至少与Cash App系统进行过一次交易，Square正专注于为客户创造更大价值，以保持他们的忠诚度。迄今为止的结果表明，新交易客户越来越多地采用现金卡和比特币交易等其他现金应用程序功能。这也是提高盈利能力的关键，第四季度每位客户的毛利润比去年同期增长了70%。</blockquote> Bitcoin is increasingly becoming an important part of Cash App. Bitcoin trading grew more than 250% year over year, and Square bought $190 million of the cryptocurrency in the fourth quarter, because it sees it as a necessary internet currency. CEO Jack Dorsey said on the recent earnings call, \"We believe it has the highest probability of empowering more people in the economy in a fair way.\"So long as Bitcoin's price is flying, it's great for Cash App.<blockquote>比特币正日益成为Cash App的重要组成部分。比特币交易同比增长超过250%，Square在第四季度购买了1.9亿美元的加密货币，因为它将其视为必要的互联网货币。首席执行官Jack Dorsey在最近的财报看涨期权上表示，“我们相信它最有可能以公平的方式赋予经济中更多人权力。”只要比特币的价格飞涨，对于Cash App来说就很棒。</blockquote> So is growth finished?<blockquote>那么增长结束了吗？</blockquote> The short answer is no.<blockquote>简短的回答是否定的。</blockquote> Storefronts struggled during the pandemic, but as lockdowns ease, seller business revenue and GPV should see higher growth. Electronic payments are still in their infancy, and Square is still in high-growth mode, especially Cash App.<blockquote>店面在疫情期间陷入困境，但随着封锁的放松，卖家业务收入和GPV应该会出现更高的增长。电子支付仍处于起步阶段，Square仍处于高增长模式，尤其是Cash App。</blockquote> The best indication of growth, in my opinion, is its ease in pivoting into new businesses, especially ahead of the curve.

The focus on Bitcoin makes Cash App somewhat risky, as we saw high volatility in its stock price last week.

Its classic sellers business, which comprises business solutions such as its famous square card reader, has seen slowed growth during the pandemic from its strong storefront presence. Revenue increased 5% and gross profit increased 13%.<blockquote>Square是一家金融科技公司，运营着两个与支付相关的生态系统。其经典卖家业务包括著名的square读卡器等商业解决方案，但由于其强大的店面存在，在疫情期间增长放缓。营收增长5%，毛利增长13%。</blockquote> The company invested in omnichannel capabilities to reach more clients and offer greater options for storefronts, and omnichannel gross payment volume increased by a third, accounting for half of the total. Square sees mid-size businesses as a huge addressable market, and this category demonstrated high potential for profitability, with gross profit growing at double the rate of other categories.<blockquote>该公司投资于全渠道能力，以接触更多客户并为店面提供更多选择，全渠道总支付量增长了三分之一，占总额的一半。Square将中型企业视为一个巨大的潜在市场，该类别显示出很高的盈利潜力，毛利润增长率是其他类别的两倍。</blockquote> Its Cash App ecosystem was a huge success as people began to rely more heavily on digital payments while under lockdown. But it wasBitcoin(CRYPTO:BTC)that made the biggest splash on Square's business. Revenue for the company increased 141% in Q4, but without Bitcoin, is was only up 23%.<blockquote>随着人们在封锁期间开始更加依赖数字支付，其Cash App生态系统取得了巨大成功。但它是比特币（加密货币：BTC）这给Square的业务带来了最大的轰动。该公司第四季度收入增长了141%，但如果没有比特币，收入仅增长了23%。</blockquote> In the fourth quarter, Cash App active customers increased 50% over 2019 to 36 million, and Square only spent $5 per customer in acquisition cost. There are 80 million customers who have transacted at least once with the Cash App system, and Square is focusing on creating greater value for customers to keep them loyal. Its results so far indicate that new transacting customers adopt other Cash App features like Cash Card and Bitcoin trading in greater numbers. It's also a key to greater profitability, as gross profit per customer increased 70% over the prior year in the fourth quarter.<blockquote>第四季度，Cash App活跃客户比2019年增长了50%，达到3600万，而Square在每个客户的获取成本上仅花费了5美元。有8000万客户至少与Cash App系统进行过一次交易，Square正专注于为客户创造更大价值，以保持他们的忠诚度。迄今为止的结果表明，新交易客户越来越多地采用现金卡和比特币交易等其他现金应用程序功能。这也是提高盈利能力的关键，第四季度每位客户的毛利润比去年同期增长了70%。</blockquote> Bitcoin is increasingly becoming an important part of Cash App. Bitcoin trading grew more than 250% year over year, and Square bought $190 million of the cryptocurrency in the fourth quarter, because it sees it as a necessary internet currency. CEO Jack Dorsey said on the recent earnings call, \"We believe it has the highest probability of empowering more people in the economy in a fair way.\"So long as Bitcoin's price is flying, it's great for Cash App.<blockquote>比特币正日益成为Cash App的重要组成部分。比特币交易同比增长超过250%，Square在第四季度购买了1.9亿美元的加密货币，因为它将其视为必要的互联网货币。首席执行官Jack Dorsey在最近的财报看涨期权上表示，“我们相信它最有可能以公平的方式赋予经济中更多人权力。”只要比特币的价格飞涨，对于Cash App来说就很棒。</blockquote> So is growth finished?<blockquote>那么增长结束了吗？</blockquote> The short answer is no.<blockquote>简短的回答是否定的。</blockquote> Storefronts struggled during the pandemic, but as lockdowns ease, seller business revenue and GPV should see higher growth. Electronic payments are still in their infancy, and Square is still in high-growth mode, especially Cash App.<blockquote>店面在疫情期间陷入困境，但随着封锁的放松，卖家业务收入和GPV应该会出现更高的增长。电子支付仍处于起步阶段，Square仍处于高增长模式，尤其是Cash App。</blockquote> The best indication of growth, in my opinion, is its ease in pivoting into new businesses, especially ahead of the curve. Its white square card reader was a real and useful innovation when it was launched, and Cash App expanded its operations with user-friendly features. The focus on Bitcoin makes Cash App somewhat risky, as we saw high volatility in its stock price last week. But it was also a harbinger of the current obsession with cryptocurrency, and if that changes, Square is likely to make that decision faster than others.<blockquote>在我看来，增长的最佳标志是它很容易转向新业务，尤其是在曲线之前。它的白色方形读卡器在推出时是一项真正有用的创新，Cash App通过用户友好的功能扩大了其业务。对比特币的关注使得Cash App存在一定风险，因为我们上周看到其股价波动较大。但这也是当前对加密货币痴迷的先兆，如果这种情况发生变化，Square可能会比其他人更快地做出决定。</blockquote> About the stock price<blockquote>关于股价</blockquote> Shares of Square trade at an outrageous valuation of roughly 600 times trailing-12-month earnings. But it has rewarded investors in the past, gaining more than 400% over the past three years. Considering the company's bright future, I still think it can continue to deliver growth.<blockquote>Square的股价估值高得离谱，约为过去12个月市盈率的600倍。但它过去给投资者带来了回报，过去三年的涨幅超过400%。考虑到公司光明的未来，我仍然认为它可以继续实现增长。</blockquote>","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>Can Square Be a Great Growth Stock?<blockquote>Square能成为一只伟大的成长型股票吗？</blockquote></title>\n<style type=\"text/css\">\na,abbr,acronym,address,applet,article,aside,audio,b,big,blockquote,body,canvas,caption,center,cite,code,dd,del,details,dfn,div,dl,dt,\nem,embed,fieldset,figcaption,figure,footer,form,h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6,header,hgroup,html,i,iframe,img,ins,kbd,label,legend,li,mark,menu,nav,\nobject,ol,output,p,pre,q,ruby,s,samp,section,small,span,strike,strong,sub,summary,sup,table,tbody,td,tfoot,th,thead,time,tr,tt,u,ul,var,video{ font:inherit;margin:0;padding:0;vertical-align:baseline;border:0 }\nbody{ font-size:16px; line-height:1.5; color:#999; background:transparent; }\n.wrapper{ overflow:hidden;word-break:break-all;padding:10px; }\nh1,h2{ font-weight:normal; line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:.6em; }\nh3,h4,h5,h6{ line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:1em; }\nh1{ font-size:24px; }\nh2{ font-size:20px; }\nh3{ font-size:18px; }\nh4{ font-size:16px; }\nh5{ font-size:14px; }\nh6{ font-size:12px; }\np,ul,ol,blockquote,dl,table{ margin:1.2em 0; }\nul,ol{ margin-left:2em; }\nul{ list-style:disc; }\nol{ list-style:decimal; }\nli,li p{ margin:10px 0;}\nimg{ max-width:100%;display:block;margin:0 auto 1em; }\nblockquote{ color:#B5B2B1; border-left:3px solid #aaa; padding:1em; }\nstrong,b{font-weight:bold;}\nem,i{font-style:italic;}\ntable{ width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:1px;margin:1em 0;font-size:.9em; }\nth,td{ padding:5px;text-align:left;border:1px solid #aaa; }\nth{ font-weight:bold;background:#5d5d5d; }\n.symbol-link{font-weight:bold;}\n/* header{ border-bottom:1px solid #494756; } */\n.title{ margin:0 0 8px;line-height:1.3;color:#ddd; }\n.meta {color:#5e5c6d;font-size:13px;margin:0 0 .5em; }\na{text-decoration:none; color:#2a4b87;}\n.meta .head { display: inline-block; overflow: hidden}\n.head .h-thumb { width: 30px; height: 30px; margin: 0; padding: 0; border-radius: 50%; float: left;}\n.head .h-content { margin: 0; padding: 0 0 0 9px; float: left;}\n.head .h-name {font-size: 13px; color: #eee; margin: 0;}\n.head .h-time {font-size: 12.5px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;}\n.small {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.9); -webkit-transform: scale(0.9); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.smaller {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.8); -webkit-transform: scale(0.8); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.bt-text {font-size: 12px;margin: 1.5em 0 0 0}\n.bt-text p {margin: 0}\n</style>\n</head>\n<body>\n<div class=\"wrapper\">\n<header>\n<h2 class=\"title\">\nCan Square Be a Great Growth Stock?<blockquote>Square能成为一只伟大的成长型股票吗？</blockquote>\n</h2>\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\nMotley Fool2021-03-04 17:19\n\n</h4>\n</header>\n<article>\nSquare&nbsp;has had mixed results throughout the pandemic that are representative of its varied business.

CEO Jack Dorsey said on the recent earnings call, \"We believe it has the highest probability of empowering more people in the economy in a fair way.\"So long as Bitcoin's price is flying, it's great for Cash App.<blockquote>比特币正日益成为Cash App的重要组成部分。比特币交易同比增长超过250%，Square在第四季度购买了1.9亿美元的加密货币，因为它将其视为必要的互联网货币。首席执行官Jack Dorsey在最近的财报看涨期权上表示，“我们相信它最有可能以公平的方式赋予经济中更多人权力。”只要比特币的价格飞涨，对于Cash App来说就很棒。</blockquote> So is growth finished?<blockquote>那么增长结束了吗？</blockquote> The short answer is no.<blockquote>简短的回答是否定的。</blockquote> Storefronts struggled during the pandemic, but as lockdowns ease, seller business revenue and GPV should see higher growth. Electronic payments are still in their infancy, and Square is still in high-growth mode, especially Cash App.<blockquote>店面在疫情期间陷入困境，但随着封锁的放松，卖家业务收入和GPV应该会出现更高的增长。电子支付仍处于起步阶段，Square仍处于高增长模式，尤其是Cash App。</blockquote> The best indication of growth, in my opinion, is its ease in pivoting into new businesses, especially ahead of the curve.

There are 80 million customers who have transacted at least once with the Cash App system, and Square is focusing on creating greater value for customers to keep them loyal.

Its classic sellers business, which comprises business solutions such as its famous square card reader, has seen slowed growth during the pandemic from its strong storefront presence. Revenue increased 5% and gross profit increased 13%.<blockquote>Square是一家金融科技公司，运营着两个与支付相关的生态系统。其经典卖家业务包括著名的square读卡器等商业解决方案，但由于其强大的店面存在，在疫情期间增长放缓。营收增长5%，毛利增长13%。</blockquote> The company invested in omnichannel capabilities to reach more clients and offer greater options for storefronts, and omnichannel gross payment volume increased by a third, accounting for half of the total. Square sees mid-size businesses as a huge addressable market, and this category demonstrated high potential for profitability, with gross profit growing at double the rate of other categories.<blockquote>该公司投资于全渠道能力，以接触更多客户并为店面提供更多选择，全渠道总支付量增长了三分之一，占总额的一半。Square将中型企业视为一个巨大的潜在市场，该类别显示出很高的盈利潜力，毛利润增长率是其他类别的两倍。</blockquote> Its Cash App ecosystem was a huge success as people began to rely more heavily on digital payments while under lockdown. But it wasBitcoin(CRYPTO:BTC)that made the biggest splash on Square's business. Revenue for the company increased 141% in Q4, but without Bitcoin, is was only up 23%.<blockquote>随着人们在封锁期间开始更加依赖数字支付，其Cash App生态系统取得了巨大成功。但它是比特币（加密货币：BTC）这给Square的业务带来了最大的轰动。该公司第四季度收入增长了141%，但如果没有比特币，收入仅增长了23%。</blockquote> In the fourth quarter, Cash App active customers increased 50% over 2019 to 36 million, and Square only spent $5 per customer in acquisition cost. There are 80 million customers who have transacted at least once with the Cash App system, and Square is focusing on creating greater value for customers to keep them loyal. Its results so far indicate that new transacting customers adopt other Cash App features like Cash Card and Bitcoin trading in greater numbers. It's also a key to greater profitability, as gross profit per customer increased 70% over the prior year in the fourth quarter.<blockquote>第四季度，Cash App活跃客户比2019年增长了50%，达到3600万，而Square在每个客户的获取成本上仅花费了5美元。有8000万客户至少与Cash App系统进行过一次交易，Square正专注于为客户创造更大价值，以保持他们的忠诚度。迄今为止的结果表明，新交易客户越来越多地采用现金卡和比特币交易等其他现金应用程序功能。这也是提高盈利能力的关键，第四季度每位客户的毛利润比去年同期增长了70%。</blockquote> Bitcoin is increasingly becoming an important part of Cash App. Bitcoin trading grew more than 250% year over year, and Square bought $190 million of the cryptocurrency in the fourth quarter, because it sees it as a necessary internet currency. CEO Jack Dorsey said on the recent earnings call, \"We believe it has the highest probability of empowering more people in the economy in a fair way.\"So long as Bitcoin's price is flying, it's great for Cash App.<blockquote>比特币正日益成为Cash App的重要组成部分。比特币交易同比增长超过250%，Square在第四季度购买了1.9亿美元的加密货币，因为它将其视为必要的互联网货币。首席执行官Jack Dorsey在最近的财报看涨期权上表示，“我们相信它最有可能以公平的方式赋予经济中更多人权力。”只要比特币的价格飞涨，对于Cash App来说就很棒。</blockquote> So is growth finished?<blockquote>那么增长结束了吗？</blockquote> The short answer is no.<blockquote>简短的回答是否定的。</blockquote> Storefronts struggled during the pandemic, but as lockdowns ease, seller business revenue and GPV should see higher growth. Electronic payments are still in their infancy, and Square is still in high-growth mode, especially Cash App.<blockquote>店面在疫情期间陷入困境，但随着封锁的放松，卖家业务收入和GPV应该会出现更高的增长。电子支付仍处于起步阶段，Square仍处于高增长模式，尤其是Cash App。</blockquote> The best indication of growth, in my opinion, is its ease in pivoting into new businesses, especially ahead of the curve. Its white square card reader was a real and useful innovation when it was launched, and Cash App expanded its operations with user-friendly features. The focus on Bitcoin makes Cash App somewhat risky, as we saw high volatility in its stock price last week. But it was also a harbinger of the current obsession with cryptocurrency, and if that changes, Square is likely to make that decision faster than others.<blockquote>在我看来，增长的最佳标志是它很容易转向新业务，尤其是在曲线之前。它的白色方形读卡器在推出时是一项真正有用的创新，Cash App通过用户友好的功能扩大了其业务。对比特币的关注使得Cash App存在一定风险，因为我们上周看到其股价波动较大。但这也是当前对加密货币痴迷的先兆，如果这种情况发生变化，Square可能会比其他人更快地做出决定。</blockquote> About the stock price<blockquote>关于股价</blockquote> Shares of Square trade at an outrageous valuation of roughly 600 times trailing-12-month earnings.

Revenue increased 5% and gross profit increased 13%.<blockquote>Square是一家金融科技公司，运营着两个与支付相关的生态系统。其经典卖家业务包括著名的square读卡器等商业解决方案，但由于其强大的店面存在，在疫情期间增长放缓。营收增长5%，毛利增长13%。</blockquote> The company invested in omnichannel capabilities to reach more clients and offer greater options for storefronts, and omnichannel gross payment volume increased by a third, accounting for half of the total.

But it wasBitcoin(CRYPTO:BTC)that made the biggest splash on Square's business. Revenue for the company increased 141% in Q4, but without Bitcoin, is was only up 23%.<blockquote>随着人们在封锁期间开始更加依赖数字支付，其Cash App生态系统取得了巨大成功。但它是比特币（加密货币：BTC）这给Square的业务带来了最大的轰动。该公司第四季度收入增长了141%，但如果没有比特币，收入仅增长了23%。</blockquote> In the fourth quarter, Cash App active customers increased 50% over 2019 to 36 million, and Square only spent $5 per customer in acquisition cost. There are 80 million customers who have transacted at least once with the Cash App system, and Square is focusing on creating greater value for customers to keep them loyal. Its results so far indicate that new transacting customers adopt other Cash App features like Cash Card and Bitcoin trading in greater numbers. It's also a key to greater profitability, as gross profit per customer increased 70% over the prior year in the fourth quarter.<blockquote>第四季度，Cash App活跃客户比2019年增长了50%，达到3600万，而Square在每个客户的获取成本上仅花费了5美元。有8000万客户至少与Cash App系统进行过一次交易，Square正专注于为客户创造更大价值，以保持他们的忠诚度。迄今为止的结果表明，新交易客户越来越多地采用现金卡和比特币交易等其他现金应用程序功能。这也是提高盈利能力的关键，第四季度每位客户的毛利润比去年同期增长了70%。</blockquote> Bitcoin is increasingly becoming an important part of Cash App. Bitcoin trading grew more than 250% year over year, and Square bought $190 million of the cryptocurrency in the fourth quarter, because it sees it as a necessary internet currency. CEO Jack Dorsey said on the recent earnings call, \"We believe it has the highest probability of empowering more people in the economy in a fair way.\"So long as Bitcoin's price is flying, it's great for Cash App.<blockquote>比特币正日益成为Cash App的重要组成部分。比特币交易同比增长超过250%，Square在第四季度购买了1.9亿美元的加密货币，因为它将其视为必要的互联网货币。首席执行官Jack Dorsey在最近的财报看涨期权上表示，“我们相信它最有可能以公平的方式赋予经济中更多人权力。”只要比特币的价格飞涨，对于Cash App来说就很棒。</blockquote> So is growth finished?<blockquote>那么增长结束了吗？</blockquote> The short answer is no.<blockquote>简短的回答是否定的。</blockquote> Storefronts struggled during the pandemic, but as lockdowns ease, seller business revenue and GPV should see higher growth. Electronic payments are still in their infancy, and Square is still in high-growth mode, especially Cash App.<blockquote>店面在疫情期间陷入困境，但随着封锁的放松，卖家业务收入和GPV应该会出现更高的增长。电子支付仍处于起步阶段，Square仍处于高增长模式，尤其是Cash App。</blockquote> The best indication of growth, in my opinion, is its ease in pivoting into new businesses, especially ahead of the curve. Its white square card reader was a real and useful innovation when it was launched, and Cash App expanded its operations with user-friendly features. The focus on Bitcoin makes Cash App somewhat risky, as we saw high volatility in its stock price last week. But it was also a harbinger of the current obsession with cryptocurrency, and if that changes, Square is likely to make that decision faster than others.<blockquote>在我看来，增长的最佳标志是它很容易转向新业务，尤其是在曲线之前。它的白色方形读卡器在推出时是一项真正有用的创新，Cash App通过用户友好的功能扩大了其业务。对比特币的关注使得Cash App存在一定风险，因为我们上周看到其股价波动较大。但这也是当前对加密货币痴迷的先兆，如果这种情况发生变化，Square可能会比其他人更快地做出决定。</blockquote> About the stock price<blockquote>关于股价</blockquote> Shares of Square trade at an outrageous valuation of roughly 600 times trailing-12-month earnings.

Its classic sellers business, which comprises business solutions such as its famous square card reader, has seen slowed growth during the pandemic from its strong storefront presence. Revenue increased 5% and gross profit increased 13%.<blockquote>Square是一家金融科技公司，运营着两个与支付相关的生态系统。其经典卖家业务包括著名的square读卡器等商业解决方案，但由于其强大的店面存在，在疫情期间增长放缓。营收增长5%，毛利增长13%。</blockquote> The company invested in omnichannel capabilities to reach more clients and offer greater options for storefronts, and omnichannel gross payment volume increased by a third, accounting for half of the total. Square sees mid-size businesses as a huge addressable market, and this category demonstrated high potential for profitability, with gross profit growing at double the rate of other categories.<blockquote>该公司投资于全渠道能力，以接触更多客户并为店面提供更多选择，全渠道总支付量增长了三分之一，占总额的一半。Square将中型企业视为一个巨大的潜在市场，该类别显示出很高的盈利潜力，毛利润增长率是其他类别的两倍。</blockquote> Its Cash App ecosystem was a huge success as people began to rely more heavily on digital payments while under lockdown. But it wasBitcoin(CRYPTO:BTC)that made the biggest splash on Square's business. Revenue for the company increased 141% in Q4, but without Bitcoin, is was only up 23%.<blockquote>随着人们在封锁期间开始更加依赖数字支付，其Cash App生态系统取得了巨大成功。但它是比特币（加密货币：BTC）这给Square的业务带来了最大的轰动。该公司第四季度收入增长了141%，但如果没有比特币，收入仅增长了23%。</blockquote> In the fourth quarter, Cash App active customers increased 50% over 2019 to 36 million, and Square only spent $5 per customer in acquisition cost. There are 80 million customers who have transacted at least once with the Cash App system, and Square is focusing on creating greater value for customers to keep them loyal. Its results so far indicate that new transacting customers adopt other Cash App features like Cash Card and Bitcoin trading in greater numbers. It's also a key to greater profitability, as gross profit per customer increased 70% over the prior year in the fourth quarter.<blockquote>第四季度，Cash App活跃客户比2019年增长了50%，达到3600万，而Square在每个客户的获取成本上仅花费了5美元。有8000万客户至少与Cash App系统进行过一次交易，Square正专注于为客户创造更大价值，以保持他们的忠诚度。迄今为止的结果表明，新交易客户越来越多地采用现金卡和比特币交易等其他现金应用程序功能。这也是提高盈利能力的关键，第四季度每位客户的毛利润比去年同期增长了70%。</blockquote> Bitcoin is increasingly becoming an important part of Cash App. Bitcoin trading grew more than 250% year over year, and Square bought $190 million of the cryptocurrency in the fourth quarter, because it sees it as a necessary internet currency. CEO Jack Dorsey said on the recent earnings call, \"We believe it has the highest probability of empowering more people in the economy in a fair way.\"So long as Bitcoin's price is flying, it's great for Cash App.<blockquote>比特币正日益成为Cash App的重要组成部分。比特币交易同比增长超过250%，Square在第四季度购买了1.9亿美元的加密货币，因为它将其视为必要的互联网货币。首席执行官Jack Dorsey在最近的财报看涨期权上表示，“我们相信它最有可能以公平的方式赋予经济中更多人权力。”只要比特币的价格飞涨，对于Cash App来说就很棒。</blockquote> So is growth finished?<blockquote>那么增长结束了吗？</blockquote> The short answer is no.<blockquote>简短的回答是否定的。</blockquote> Storefronts struggled during the pandemic, but as lockdowns ease, seller business revenue and GPV should see higher growth. Electronic payments are still in their infancy, and Square is still in high-growth mode, especially Cash App.<blockquote>店面在疫情期间陷入困境，但随着封锁的放松，卖家业务收入和GPV应该会出现更高的增长。电子支付仍处于起步阶段，Square仍处于高增长模式，尤其是Cash App。</blockquote> The best indication of growth, in my opinion, is its ease in pivoting into new businesses, especially ahead of the curve. Its white square card reader was a real and useful innovation when it was launched, and Cash App expanded its operations with user-friendly features. The focus on Bitcoin makes Cash App somewhat risky, as we saw high volatility in its stock price last week.

CEO Jack Dorsey said on the recent earnings call, \"We believe it has the highest probability of empowering more people in the economy in a fair way.\"So long as Bitcoin's price is flying, it's great for Cash App.<blockquote>比特币正日益成为Cash App的重要组成部分。比特币交易同比增长超过250%，Square在第四季度购买了1.9亿美元的加密货币，因为它将其视为必要的互联网货币。首席执行官Jack Dorsey在最近的财报看涨期权上表示，“我们相信它最有可能以公平的方式赋予经济中更多人权力。”只要比特币的价格飞涨，对于Cash App来说就很棒。</blockquote> So is growth finished?<blockquote>那么增长结束了吗？</blockquote> The short answer is no.<blockquote>简短的回答是否定的。</blockquote> Storefronts struggled during the pandemic, but as lockdowns ease, seller business revenue and GPV should see higher growth. Electronic payments are still in their infancy, and Square is still in high-growth mode, especially Cash App.<blockquote>店面在疫情期间陷入困境，但随着封锁的放松，卖家业务收入和GPV应该会出现更高的增长。电子支付仍处于起步阶段，Square仍处于高增长模式，尤其是Cash App。</blockquote> The best indication of growth, in my opinion, is its ease in pivoting into new businesses, especially ahead of the curve. Its white square card reader was a real and useful innovation when it was launched, and Cash App expanded its operations with user-friendly features. The focus on Bitcoin makes Cash App somewhat risky, as we saw high volatility in its stock price last week. But it was also a harbinger of the current obsession with cryptocurrency, and if that changes, Square is likely to make that decision faster than others.<blockquote>在我看来，增长的最佳标志是它很容易转向新业务，尤其是在曲线之前。它的白色方形读卡器在推出时是一项真正有用的创新，Cash App通过用户友好的功能扩大了其业务。对比特币的关注使得Cash App存在一定风险，因为我们上周看到其股价波动较大。但这也是当前对加密货币痴迷的先兆，如果这种情况发生变化，Square可能会比其他人更快地做出决定。</blockquote> About the stock price<blockquote>关于股价</blockquote> Shares of Square trade at an outrageous valuation of roughly 600 times trailing-12-month earnings. But it has rewarded investors in the past, gaining more than 400% over the past three years. Considering the company's bright future, I still think it can continue to deliver growth.<blockquote>Square的股价估值高得离谱，约为过去12个月市盈率的600倍。但它过去给投资者带来了回报，过去三年的涨幅超过400%。考虑到公司光明的未来，我仍然认为它可以继续实现增长。</blockquote>\n<div class=\"bt-text\">\n\n\n 来源：<a href=\"https://www.fool.com/investing/2021/03/03/can-square-be-a-great-growth-stock/\">Motley Fool</a>\n为提升您的阅读体验，我们对本页面进行了排版优化\n\n\n</div>\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{},"source_url":"https://www.fool.com/investing/2021/03/03/can-square-be-a-great-growth-stock/","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/e9f99090a1c2ed51c021029395664489","article_id":"1135874277","content_text":"Square has had mixed results throughout the pandemic that are representative of its varied business. The company's fourth-quarter earnings continued the trend, and investors were happy enough to keep bidding up its stock.

But it wasBitcoin(CRYPTO:BTC)that made the biggest splash on Square's business. Revenue for the company increased 141% in Q4, but without Bitcoin, is was only up 23%.\nIn the fourth quarter, Cash App active customers increased 50% over 2019 to 36 million, and Square only spent $5 per customer in acquisition cost.
