Shift4, a fast-growing company in the payment sector, reported strong Q1 results with a 66% YoY increase in payment volume and a 34% YoY increase in gross revenue excluding network fees. Despite facing competition from Adyen and Stripe, Shift4's focus on specific industries and its lower valuation compared to competitors could lead to strong long-term returns if it can build a moat in its niche. Shift4's international expansion and growth in the US market could lead to strong revenue growth, but deleveraging should be a priority as net debt is quite high.
