EML Payments (ASX:EML) has become a disappointing turnaround for several fund managers. In September 2026, QVG Capital said it is increasingly concerned that the turnaround is taking longer and costing more than expected, suggesting the investment is starting to look like a genuine mistake. DMX Asset Management reported a 25% share price fall after a messy result and downgraded expectations, though it believes EML's revenue base has value and could attract corporate interest. Forager Funds noted no signs of improvement and now holds only a small position. EML Payments operates in the Financials sector within the Diversified Financial Services industry, and Thesis Tracker has captured 56 comments from 10 fund managers, including QVG Capital, DMX, Forager and NAOS. Founded in 2001 and headquartered in Brisbane, EML provides prepaid card and payment solutions, including gift, incentive and reloadable cards, for businesses and governments across Australia, Europe and North America.
