Net interest income came in slightly below projections at $4.04 billion, compared to the anticipated $4.09 billion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>CEO Stephen Squeri highlighted strong consumer and commercial spending during the holiday season, driving record annual cardholder spending, net card fee revenues, and 13 million new card acquisitions. &#8220;We continued to expand our global network, adding millions of merchant locations,&#8221; Squeri said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Looking ahead, American Express forecasts revenue growth of 8% to 10% in 2025 and earnings per share between $15.00 and $15.50, aligning closely with analysts\u2019 expectations of 8.2% revenue growth and $15.26 EPS. Additionally, the company announced plans to increase its quarterly dividend by 17% to $0.82 per share, reflecting confidence in its financial outlook.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The report follows a strong earnings season for major banks, buoyed by a rebound in Wall Street dealmaking. However, investors appeared unimpressed, with American Express shares retreating from Thursday&#8217;s record close of $325.87. Despite the dip, the stock remains up roughly 75% over the past 12 months.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While American Express continues to demonstrate resilience and growth in a competitive financial landscape, the slight earnings miss and tempered investor reaction underscore the challenges of sustaining momentum amid high expectations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You might like this article:<a href=\"https:\/\/stoxpo.com\/index.php\/2025\/01\/24\/rivian-targets-2025-for-hands-free-driving-eyes-major-leap-in-ev-tech\/\"><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)\" class=\"has-inline-color has-vivid-cyan-blue-color\">Rivian Targets 2025 for Hands-Free Driving, Eyes Major Leap in EV Tech<\/mark><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Record Spending and Growth Forecasts Fail to Buoy Investor Sentiment American Express (AXP) shares trading flat in premarket trading on Friday, despite the financial services giant reporting fourth-quarter fiscal 2024 results that aligned with analysts&#8217; expectations.
