Investment Thesis

Recommendation: PayPal (NASDAQ: PYPL) may represent significant upside due to its potential for growth within the expanding electronic payments space and likely improvement in the monetization of its developing companies

PYPL has a massive TAM and likely will continue to gain share in the fastest growing area of payments

• Potential for new marketplaces following expiration of eBay operating agreement

• Strategic partnerships and international expansion that drive volume growth

• Infrastructure and partners to reduce friction through the development of electronic B2B payment systems

High potential for the improved monetization of Venmo

Braintree is an underappreciated asset and has extensive potential for growth

Electronic Payment: the Players

3

The Merchant The Technology The Customers

Works with merchant acquirer, which sets up the merchant with a payment processor

A payment gateway connects the merchant’s website to a payment processor, which moves the transaction from point A to point B

The transactions behind electronic payment processing are all behind the scene from the customers’ points of view –checkout is fast and secure

Electronic Payment: the Payment Process

4

Step 1: Customer Pays

Step 4: Authorization

Step 2: Encryption Step 3: Authentication

Step 5: Settlement Step 6: Merchant is Paid

Customer makes a purchase on merchant’s website using a debit or credit card

Customer’s personal information and payment transaction data is encrypted as it moves through the payment gateway

Payment processor validates that payment data is being sent by its claimed source

Payment processor requests issuing bank to authorize specific amount of funds from the customer’s account

Occurs when the card issuer sends the appropriate funds to the merchant’s acquiring bank, which deposits them into the vendor’s merchant account

Funds are accessible in the vendor’s merchant account

New Marketplaces

8CapitalIQ, 10-k

eBay Operating Agreement

• Management has stated that there are large marketplaces that PayPal is prohibited from working with due to its operating agreement with eBay

• Operating agreement was created in 2015 to maintain synergies and provide strategic flexibility for the two firms

• The agreement expires in July 2020 and PayPal has no intention to resign

• Under the operating agreement, PayPal was barred from working with fast-growing, next-gen marketplaces, and it is highly probable that both Amazon and Facebook are among these companies

“…And also remember, there are other big marketplaces out there that we'reprohibited from working with because of the operating agreement…but those marketplaces are ready to start partnering with us…”- Dan Schulman, CEO, April 24, 2019, on the Q1 2019 earnings call

Potential New Marketplaces

• High potential for partnership with Amazon in marketplaces where it is not dominant, developing, or does not offer Prime services

• Amazon sources 92% of revenue from US, UK, Germany, and Japan

• The 8% outside of these markets represents a $33b international volume opportunity for PayPal in 2020E

• 2018 acquisition of Hyperwallet strengthens its position with possible marketplace partners

PayPal: Not a Bank Competitor

Pre-2016 Card Network Agreements

▸ PayPal was viewed as a disintermediary threat to card networks and card issuing partners

▸ PayPal encouraged users to fund transactions with their bank accounts (ACH)

– Card networks and banks missed out on interchange income and interest income on credit cards

Post-2016 Card Network Agreements

▸ Approach to payments ecosystem changed under Dan Schulman

▸ PayPal transformed into a top digital distribution channel for banks, which are now a key source for PayPal’s TPV and user growth

Strategic Bank Partnerships Insulate PayPal from NeoBank Competition and Drive Volume for Both Parties

Global Expansion of PayPal’s Full Suite

Strategic International Investments

▸ Commercial agreement with MercadoLibre expands PayPal’s Latin American presence and Xoom’s reach in Brazil and Mexico

▸ Paypal’s recent acquisition of GoPay made it the first non-Chinese payments company licensed to provide online payment services in China

▸ Paypal’s Chinese payments license enables the company to offer payment solutions to Chinese businesses and consumers through existing relationships with China UnionPay and AliExpress

– 2016 AliExpress partnership: enabled users outside of China to shop on AliExpress; ~50% of AliExpress merchants accept PayPal

Differentiated Value Proposition

▸ Operates on a massive two-sided payment platform: ~300 million consumers and ~23 million merchants globally

▸ Helps small eCommerce merchants compete: industry leading mobile checkout conversion rate (89%); full suite of commerce solutions through a simple integration process

▸ Honey acquisition: will bolster PayPal’s conversion rates and enable merchants to target specific consumer demographics with personalized offers

Untapped Countries

▸ PayPal operates in over 200 countries, but its full suite of capabilities is only available in about 10, presenting significant room for growth

Business-to-Business (B2B) Opportunity

12

Significant Opportunity • B2B payments volume approximately $120

trillion per year globally and roughly $22 trillion per year domestically

• ~$1tr of U.S. B2B payments done through card • Significant benefits for businesses as provides

significant workflow automation, reduces labor costs and human error, and increases productivity

PayPal Investment • PayPal has signed numerous B2B partnerships over the past

few years (Sage, Reckon, OroCommerce, Xero, etc.)• PayPal Commerce offers B2B payment experiences across

credit cards, PayPal, debit cards, alternative payment methods, PayPal Credit, and Pay with Venmo

• PayPal continues to invest in this developing and open market

Braintree as an Underappreciated Asset

Braintree’s Strategic Advantages

▸ Enables a merchant to accept PayPal (and Venmo), credit cards, debit cards, ACH (online bank transfers), and other forms of payment (Apple Pay, Google Pay, Samsung Pay) through a single contract and integration

▸ Known for ease of use within developer community, resonating with start-ups and smaller merchants

▸ Leverages the scale and reach of PayPal’s resources and partnerships

Significant Runway for PayPal Integration

▸ Only about one-third of Braintree’s largest merchants accept PayPal

– Presents significant opportunity for growth as PayPal’s differentiated value proposition and massive payment network create strong incentives for merchants to accept payment via PayPal

Venmo Monetization

15Pymnts, Capital IQ, 10-k

Venmo Overview • On pace to generate over $100b in payments volume in 2019• Top grossing app in the US today by dollar volume other than Amazon• Currently an unprofitable business…

Why Venmo is Underappreciated • Competitive differentiator for US mobile payments business • 40 mm engaged users • Millennial user base that is significant for retailers and digital economy

companies • Monetization growth will occur due to increasing instant transfer

revenue, strengthening Venmo card, and Pay with Venmo achieving scale • 25 mm of 40mm users have yet to monetize (solely P2P) • By Q3 2019, Venmo at a ~$400mm revenue run rate,

Where Venmo is Going • Strategy to monetize Venmo by C2B • Evidenced by recent products, such as credit card, Honey shopping integration,

and developing Venmo’s newsfeed to create consumer and brand engagement through rewards and stickers

• PWV likely to scale in 2020 due to the Honey acquisition, increased brand engagement, and increasing use of the PWV button
