Original Reddit post

Author questions whether Fiserv is still a value play after a second consecutive earnings miss with flat revenue and declining EPS.

FI — AVOID Author argues Fiserv has missed earnings two quarters in a row with flat revenue and flat growth, and EPS decreased significantly despite increased operating margins and decreased cash flow. The author questions whether Fiserv is now a declining business even at a PE of 9-10, suggesting the low valuation may be a value trap rather than an opportunity. The thesis is that deteriorating fundamentals undermine the prior value case.

At this point, is Fiserv a declining business even though its PE ratio is between 9-10 and no longer worth scooping up?
