Nayax Introduces Innovative State-of-Charge Feature for EV Kiosk, Elevating EV Charging Experience
Drivers can now easily access charging information through QR codes without apps or registration
HERZLIYA, Israel, March 20, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Nayax Ltd. (Nasdaq: NYAX; TASE: NYAX), a global commerce enablement, payments and loyalty platform designed to help merchants scale their business, today announced the launch of its State-of-Charge feature for its EV Kiosk. This new upgrade simplifies electric vehicle (EV) charging by clearly separating card-present payments from mobile access to charging session details. Payments are securely completed directly at the payment kiosk, while detailed charging information is effortlessly accessed on drivers' smartphones by scanning a QR code—no app downloads or personal details required.
As EVs become increasingly common, convenience and data privacy are top priorities for drivers. Many drivers find managing numerous charging apps inconvenient and worry about protecting sensitive payment data. Nayax's EV Kiosk solves these challenges by enabling secure, quick, physical payments directly at the kiosk. After paying, drivers simply scan the QR code displayed at the kiosk to see key charging details on their phones, including energy usage, charging speed, session duration, total cost, and kWh charged. Drivers can easily track their charging session remotely and instantly receive a digital e-receipt upon completion.
EV Kiosk's digital e-receipts are customizable, allowing merchants to strengthen brand visibility and customer relationships. Businesses can leverage receipts for promotions, social media links, engaging video content, or advertisements—encouraging customer loyalty and repeat visits.
'Our goal at Nayax is to deliver payment solutions that make life easier for both the merchant and consumer," said Yair Nechmad, CEO of Nayax. "With our new State-of-Charge feature, we've taken a practical approach to solve the everyday frustrations drivers face when charging EVs. By clearly separating the secure physical payment from mobile charging session management, we've made EV charging simpler, faster, and safer—for drivers and charging operators alike."

Is Nvidia stock a massive bargain — or a massive value trap?
AI has transformed demand for computer chips and the most obvious beneficiary of that has been Nvidia (NASDAQ: NVDA). With a stock market capitalization of $3.4trn, Nvidia might not seem like an obvious bargain. But what if it is really worth that much – or potentially a lot more? I have been keen to add some Nvidia stock to my portfolio, but I do not want to overpay. After all, Nvidia has shot up 1,499% in five years! So, here is what I am doing. For some companies in which I have invested in the past, from Reckitt to Burberry, I have benefited as an investor from a market being mature. Sales of detergent or pricy trenchcoats may grow over time, but they are unlikely to shoot up year after year. That is because those firms operate in mature markets. On top of that, as they are large and long-established, it is hard for them to grow by gaining substantial market share. So, market maturity has helped me as an investor because it has made it easier for me to judge what I think the total size of a market for a product or service may be – and how much of it the company in question looks likely to have in future. Chips, by contrast, are different. Even before AI, this was still a fast-growing industry – and AI has added fuel to that fire. On top of that, Nvidia is something of a rarity. It is already a large company and generated $130bn in revenues last year. But it is not mature – rather, it continues to grow at a breathtaking pace. Its first-quarter revenue was 69% higher than in the same three months of last year. Those factors mean that it is hard to tell what Nvidia is worth. Clearly that is not only my opinion: the fact that Nvidia stock is 47% higher than in April suggests that the wider market is wrestling with the same problem. Could it be a value trap? It is possible. For example, chip demand could fall after the surge of recent years and settle down again at a much lower level. A lower cost rival could eat badly into Nvidia's market share. Trade disputes could see sales volumes fall. With a price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio of 46, just a few things like that going wrong could mean today's Nvidia stock price ends up looking like a value trap. On the other hand, think about those first-quarter growth rates. If Nvidia keeps doing as well, let alone better, its earnings could soar. In that case, the prospective P/E ratio based on today's share price could be low and the current share price a long-term bargain. I see multiple possible drivers for such an increase, such as more widespread adoption of AI and Nvidia launching even more advanced proprietary chip designs. So, I reckon the company could turn out to be either a massive bargain at today's price, or a massive value trap. The price does not offer me enough margin of safety for my comfort if the stock is indeed a value trap. So, I will wait for a more attractive valuation before buying.

Is Lululemon's Recent Pullback Your Perfect Entry Point?
CHINA - 2025/04/17: A shopper walks past the Canadian sportswear clothing band Lululemon store. ... More (Photo by Sebastian Ng/SOPA Images/LightRocket via Getty Images) Lululemon stock (NASDAQ:LULU) is currently trading at approximately $331 and seems undervalued based on its strong fundamentals, even though the stock often experiences volatility during turbulent market conditions. The company provided impressive Q1 2025 results, with revenue increasing by 7% to $2.37 billion and EPS rising to $2.60, just surpassing expectations. However, the market concentrated on a weaker-than-anticipated 1% increase in same-store sales and a revised full-year outlook, influenced in part by tariff-related pressures. The consequence? A swift 22% decline in after-hours trading that reflects more about short-term market sentiment than long-term intrinsic value. In spite of its high-performance profile, LULU behaves like a value stock. Lululemon trades at about 18x its trailing earnings (slightly lower than the historical average) and 19x price-to-free cash flow – both figures are beneath the S&P 500's averages—yet it is a company that consistently excels in revenue, margins, and return on capital. In comparison with its main competitor Nike, Lululemon is more affordable across significant profit metrics, with a reduced P/E and a more appealing P/FCF ratio. Investors are essentially acquiring Ferrari performance at Lexus pricing. Moreover, with a $32 billion market cap generating $1.6 billion in trailing free cash flow—a 5% cash flow yield, LULU appears to be more of a long-term wealth builder than a fluctuating apparel brand. For those looking for lower volatility compared to individual stocks, the Trefis High Quality portfolio offers an alternative – having outperformed the S&P 500 and yielding returns exceeding 91% since inception. Lululemon continues to showcase its growth capabilities. The company reports an impressive three-year revenue CAGR of 19%, which is more than three times the S&P 500's 5.5%. Over just the past year, it demonstrated 10% revenue growth, increasing annual sales to about $11 billion. Despite encountering macroeconomic challenges, the brand persists as a global growth powerhouse with an expanding international presence and remarkable efficiency. Its operating margin over the last four quarters of 23.7% nearly doubles the S&P 500's 13.2%, while its operating cash flow and net income margins (21.5% and 17.1%, respectively) significantly outperform broader market averages. These figures are not merely good—they're elite. Lululemon's balance sheet resembles a fortress. With a debt-to-equity ratio of just 4.9%, it is significantly below the S&P 500 average of 19.9%. Additionally, its cash-to-assets ratio of 26.1% far exceeds the market's 13.8%. This immaculate financial status provides Lululemon with both strength during downturns and the ability to invest in further growth. There's no way to sugarcoat it: Lululemon has experienced dramatic declines during market corrections. It dropped 46% during the downturn of 2022 (compared to the S&P's 25%), fell 47% in the early 2020 COVID-19 shock (versus 34%), and was extremely affected during the 2008 crash, plummeting 92% (compared to 57%). Investors must recognize that with LULU, strong fundamentals don't necessarily provide protection against sharp changes in sentiment. Our dashboard How Low Can Stocks Go During A Market Crash illustrates how major stocks performed during and after the last six market crashes. Lululemon checks nearly every box: strong growth, solid profitability, and a fortified balance sheet, with the only drawback being its susceptibility during market downturns. Trading at a slight discount relative to its strong performance profile, the recent Q1 results, which included mixed outcomes and cautious guidance, underscore immediate challenges while preserving the integrity of long-term fundamentals. Nonetheless, you could also consider the Trefis Reinforced Value (RV) Portfolio, which has surpassed its all-cap stocks benchmark (a combination of the S&P 500, S&P mid-cap, and Russell 2000 benchmark indices) to yield strong returns for investors. Why is that? The quarterly rebalanced mix of large-, mid- and small-cap RV Portfolio stocks offered a responsive strategy to capitalize on positive market conditions while limiting losses during downturns, as detailed in RV Portfolio performance metrics.
