Worldline’s push into Android SmartPOS comes as the company navigates a rocky stretch in the market. The past month has seen a 33.9% drop in its share price, while the total shareholder return over the last year has plunged 77%. Despite recent innovation, momentum remains weak and investors are waiting for signs of a real turnaround before confidence returns.

With Worldline’s last close at €1.53, the most popular narrative sees fair value at €2.51, a sizable disconnect that is fueling debate about the company’s turnaround efforts and what’s needed to close the gap.
