He told investors on Tuesday, if we see levers or a path that we believe would create superior value for our shareholders, then executing our current strategy, we would of course carefully consider them.
PayPal is still busy with its AI-focused turnaround, which included a restructuring exercise to streamline its operations into three segments.
Checkout Solutions and PayPal, Consumer Financial Services and Venmo, and Payment Services and Crypto.
The company has said it will generate additional cost savings as it embraces AI in areas like coding, customer service, support operations, and risk management.
Loris offered an update on this strategy on Tuesday, saying the company was making good progress on its plan to deliver at least $1.5 billion in gross run rate savings over the next two to three years.
He also said PayPal...
is on track to remove three organizational layers across the company and is continuing to modernize its technology.
This last bit includes migrating from its data center to the cloud, building a more modular and scalable architecture, and reducing platform complexity.
Loris said, we believe that executing the transformation strategy I have outlined will create significant value for shareholders.
That remains our focus.
While there is still significant work ahead, I have strong conviction in our direction and in our ability to execute.
That's all for now.

On Sunday, Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella doubled down on the shocking warning that he issued earlier this month to businesses that use AI, taking it a step further this time.
Companies that rely wholly on the proprietary AI labs for their AI needs, he says, ultimately, will not survive.
That's what he said on CNN's Fareed Zakaria GPS.
When Zakaria asked Nadella to explain what constitutes a company sharing too much with an AI model provider, Nadella said businesses need to be wary of everything they hand over, from their data to their prompts.
Nadella called for a setup where every time you use the model, all of the metadata around it is retained by you so that you could use all of that to train perhaps your own weights or your own open model.
Now, weights are a model's trained parameters, essentially its brain.
Nadella's point, though, companies should hold on to their own usage data so they can eventually build a model of their own.
