Block Q1 gross profit rises 9%, misses its expectations; 2025 outlook revised

Mixed Impact 4 of 5 guidance Written later

Block reported first-quarter 2025 gross profit of $2.29 billion, up 9% year over year, and said growth came in below its expectations, mainly due to softer Cash App inflows and card spend. It now expects 2025 gross profit of $9.96 billion, up 12%, reflecting a more cautious view of the macro environment. GAAP net income fell to $190 million from $472 million and diluted EPS fell to $0.30 from $0.74, while adjusted EPS rose 19% to $0.56, so the results point in different directions for shareholders.

Key points

  • Q1 2025 gross profit was $2.29 billion, up 9%: Cash App $1.38 billion (up 10%) and Square $898 million (up 9%).
  • Net income attributable to common stockholders was $190 million, versus $472 million in Q1 2024; diluted EPS was $0.30, versus $0.74; adjusted EPS was $0.56, up 19%.
