FIS (Fidelity National Information Services) has seen a series of ups and downs over the past few years. The firm has made significant technological advancements by shifting to cloud-native, API-first infrastructure and launching an AI-powered Neural Treasury suite, modernizing banking experiences with AI, payments, and more. However, their investment narrative has been altered by the Worldpay lawsuit and one-off loss of $497 million that undermined the margin narrative. Despite downsides, FIS has been named a top dividend stock and secured the seventh place in the top 100 Fintech companies, also succeeding at the 2025 Global Finance Treasury and Cash Management Systems and Services Awards.
In terms of acquisitions, FIS took over fintech Amount, a digital banking platform, which brought FIS a unified digital account origination. It also sold its stake in Worldpay and became set to buy the issuer business of Global Payments. Sadly, for the shareholders, they faced significant losses. However, beneficial moves like the increase in its stock repurchase plan, payment of $210 million to settle the lawsuit, and strong Q3 earnings and revenues uplift the investment prospects of FIS. The firm continues to focus on upgradation and transformation, such as the revamp of its Private Capital Suite to Cloud Native SaaS Platform.
