SYDNEY--Block's Australia-listed securities slumped 11% early Friday after the payment technology provider's gross profit growth slowed at the start of 3Q.

The stock was the S&P/ASX 200's worst performer about 90 minutes after the session opened.

Block late Thursday reported stronger-than-expected 2Q earnings and raised its full-year outlook, but indicated that gross profit growth had likely slowed to an annual 21% in July.

Block's 2Q gross profit rose 27% on-year to US$1.87 billion, compared with the average analyst forecast of US$1.81 billion, according to data compiled by FactSet.

Its net loss narrowed to US$125.8 million from US$209.3 million a year earlier.

The Australia-listed shares, a legacy of Block's 2021 acquisition of local buy-now-pay-later provider Afterpay, were recently at 103.84 Australian dollars (US$68.03) and on course for their lowest close in almost four weeks.
