Ingo Uytdehaage on financial guidance
From Adyen AGM 2026 | All Board Proposals Passed Including Executive Reappointments On Strong Volumes · · Investing 101
“In the past we've worked with the guidance that was multiple years and I think the consistent feedback from investors that was not helping to get better clarity on individual years. So that's exactly why we have switched this year to guidance specifically for 2026 which is indeed the guidance on revenues that you just indicated. At the same time during investor day we indicated that we expected the company will grow about 20% for the next coming years.”

About Ingo Uytdehaage
At Adyen’s 2026 Annual General Meeting, Uytdehaage noted that all board proposals, including executive reappointments, were adopted with the required majority. He stated that the company remains in a “high growth mode” and reiterated its 2026 guidance on revenue, EBITDA, and capex. He explained that the company switched to single-year guidance after investor feedback that multi-year guidance did not provide clarity. Uytdehaage also described the acquisition of Talon One as an investment made possible by the company’s balance sheet strength. During Adyen’s 2025 Investor Day, Uytdehaage said the company is building on “durable foundations” to address challenges from AI-driven fraud, regulation, and merchant demand for flexibility. He argued that the industry’s approach to risk is “broken” and that Adyen’s “dynamic identification” system represents a new solution. He stated that the company plans to invest primarily in its team, which accounts for about 75% of operating costs, and that Adyen is on a path to become “one of the biggest fintech players in the world.”
