lines think I I in unpack and versus it growth debit mentioned of the parts. along the of comments higher versus post-COVID some So less credit than in mean, was U.S. your you sustained non-U.S. this

is margin like structures. structure was looks what So the helpful, the quite that question my revenue as

steps and what First historically. then normalized possibly beyond was up

Vasant Prabhu

the average view as we it significant. operating is are discussed we've on at Looking the said is we revenues not and to invest to our based takes as then grow the which And margins that. which opportunities and available our before, -- outcome objective. an do for general what that Company, an goal Margins we've are volumes

have margins. Our the have marginal cost to marginal business tend structure, services costs. a fixed comes low does a high good businesses Value-added transaction

given infrastructure our does payments flows can business. and flows business and businesses come But have good good different. new margin. leverages, very much than different The very are a businesses margins yields with it's have margins. that the New scale it Yields core

So from the saw nice improvement this in COVID era. you margins had to year. We what happened drop we the a had

same don't mean, So we vastly see margin net-net, the perspective anything still factors. different I driven from future, it the will a be in by

outcome, an As objective. it's an I said, not
