Where WEX is headed

WEX in 2028 looks nothing like the WEX the market is currently pricing. The fleet card business everyone thinks is dying (because EVs, because fuel prices, because the entire premise of selling gallons-pumped is supposedly fading) is still throwing off $1.3B in free cash flow on a $5.2B market cap. That is a 25% FCF yield on a business with 72% gross margins and a 30% ROE. Either the numbers are lying or the market is.
