PayPal CEO Dan Schulman says the uncertain economic environment could also present opportunity: “We think this is a time where market-share leaders get stronger.'
PayPal Holdings Inc.’s cost-savings story began to play out in the latest quarter, but that wasn’t enough to satisfy investors as the digital payments giant also cut its revenue forecast for the full year in light of the “rough macro environment.”

Executives now model $4.07 a share to $4.09 a share in adjusted earnings for the full year, which is ahead of the prior forecast that called for $3.87 a share to $3.97 a share.
Earlier this year, PayPal began to shift its focus more on generating engagement among existing users than on attracting and retaining less active customers.
