PeriodQ2 FY2026Q1 FY2026
Archived record for Q1 FY2026. The current period is Q2 FY2026.
Published
Mastercard Incorporated reported $8.40 billion in net revenue for Q1 FY2026, the quarter ended March 31, 2026, up 15.8% from $7.25 billion a year earlier, and net income of $3.88 billion, up 18.4%, or $4.35 per diluted share, up 21.2%. The reported growth was flattered by a weaker dollar: gross dollar volume grew considerably more slowly in local currency than in reported dollars, and growth in United States volume was the weakest of the company's drivers, while cross-border volume and switched transactions held up. Value-added services and solutions, the faster-growing of Mastercard's two revenue categories, reached $3.45 billion, up 22.4%, against $4.95 billion of payment network revenue, up 11.6%, a line struck after rebates and incentives paid to customers that again grew faster than the network revenue they support. Operating income of $4.91 billion, up 18.3%, grew faster than revenue and lifted the operating margin, absorbing a restructuring charge in general and administrative expenses that the year-ago quarter did not carry, while the litigation provision booked a year earlier did not recur.

How this page was built
This page was built from Mastercard Incorporated's own filings with the SEC, read one at a time, and nothing on it is taken from a pre-tagged dataset, a data vendor or another website. The figures are on the company's own fiscal calendar and in actual dollars, as the filings report them. Where the filings do not support a figure, the record says so instead of reporting a zero; this period names eight such gaps.
A single company files thousands of pages with the SEC in a year, and no two companies file them the same way, so the reading and the assembly here are done by AI rather than by rules that break on the differences. Every pass is then audited back against the filings it came from before the page is published, and anything the filings do not support is left out and named rather than filled in. AI can still make mistakes. That is why the accession numbers are printed: the filing is the authority, and this page is a route to it.
