With FY26 EPS/TM guidance unchanged, the implicit back-half math still requires H2 reacceleration that the Street hasn't yet underwritten, capping estimate revisions. Meanwhile the live Stripe/Advent takeover saga (board pushing for ~$70 vs. rejected $60.50 bid) remains the dominant swing factor for the stock over the following days, likely overwhelming the fundamental print and causing the initial earnings-driven pop to partially fade as attention reverts to deal headlines and advisor (Goldman/Evercore) commentary rather than sustained fundamental re-rating.",
