    This press release features multimedia. View the full release here: https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20231031418739/en/

    "We delivered strong third quarter results that were ahead of our expectations despite what continues to be an uncertain macroeconomic environment," said Cameron Bready, President and Chief Executive Officer. "Our performance highlights the durability of our business model and our consistency of execution across market cycles, further reinforcing the confidence we have in our strategy and the results it delivers."

    Bready continued, "We have made outstanding progress with the integration of EVO Payments and now expect to deliver approximately $135 million in annual run-rate synergies. We are enthusiastic about the future together with EVO Payments as we build on our competitive advantages and payments leadership position."

    Bready concluded, "We remain focused on elevating the commerce experience for our customers globally. Our sharpened focus, differentiated technology-enabled strategy, and consistent execution are driving sustainable growth and creating significant value for all of our stakeholders."

    Third Quarter 2023 Summary

    • GAAP revenues were $2.48 billion, compared to $2.29 billion in 2022; diluted earnings per share were $1.39 compared to $1.05 in the prior year; and operating margin was 22.5% compared to 16.9% in the prior year.
    • Adjusted net revenues increased 9% to $2.23 billion, compared to $2.06 billion in 2022.
    • Adjusted earnings per share increased 11% to $2.75, compared to $2.48 in 2022.
    • Adjusted operating margin expanded 50 basis points to 45.7%.

    2023 Outlook

    "We are pleased with our continued solid financial performance and results for the third quarter and year-to-date period," said Josh Whipple, Senior Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer. "We achieved 9% adjusted net revenue growth, strong adjusted operating margin expansion and 11% adjusted earnings per share growth compared to the same period in 2022."

    Whipple continued, "We remain encouraged by the trends we are seeing in our business, despite ongoing macroeconomic concerns and foreign currency exchange rate volatility. The company continues to expect adjusted net revenue to be in a range of $8.660 billion to $8.735 billion, reflecting growth of 7% to 8% over 2022, and for adjusted operating margin to expand by up to 120 basis points in 2023. We now anticipate adjusted earnings per share to be in a range of $10.39 to $10.45, reflecting growth of 11% to 12% over 2022, or roughly 17% excluding dispositions."

    Whipple concluded, "Our 2023 outlook reflects the ongoing momentum in our business, while also accommodating for a more tempered economic environment given the continued uncertainty."

    Capital Allocation

    Global Payments' Board of Directors approved a dividend of $0.25 per share payable on December 29, 2023 to shareholders of record as of December 15, 2023.

    Conference Call

    Global Payments' management will host a live audio webcast today, October 31, 2023, at 8:00 a.m. EDT to discuss financial results and business highlights. The audio webcast, along with supplemental financial information, can be accessed via the investor relations page of the company's website at investors.globalpayments.com. A replay of the audio webcast will be archived on the company's website following the live event.

    Non-GAAP Financial Measures

    Global Payments supplements revenues, operating income, operating margin and net income and earnings per share determined in accordance with GAAP by providing these measures with certain adjustments (such measures being non-GAAP financial measures) in this earnings release to assist with evaluating our performance. In addition to GAAP measures, management uses these non-GAAP financial measures to focus on the factors the company believes are pertinent to the daily management of our operations.

    Global Payments also has provided supplemental non-GAAP information to reflect the divestiture of the consumer portion of our Netspend business, which comprised our former Consumer Solutions segment, which closed in April 2023. Management believes that providing such supplemental financial information should enhance shareholders' ability to evaluate how the business will be managed going forward.

    Reconciliations of each of the non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measure are included in the schedules to this release, except for forward-looking measures where a reconciliation to the corresponding GAAP measures is not available due to the variability, complexity and limited visibility of the items that are excluded from the non-GAAP outlook measures.

    Forward-Looking Statements

    Investors are cautioned that some of the statements we use in this report contain forward-looking statements and are made pursuant to the "safe-harbor" provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements, which are based on current expectations, estimates and projections about the industry and markets in which we operate, and beliefs of and assumptions made by our management, involve risks and uncertainties that could significantly affect the financial condition, results of operations, business plans and the future performance of Global Payments. Actual events or results might differ materially from those expressed or forecasted in these forward-looking statements. Accordingly, we cannot guarantee that our plans and expectations will be achieved. Examples of forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements we make regarding guidance and projected financial results for the year 2023; the effects of general economic conditions on our business; statements about the benefits of our acquisitions or divestitures, including future financial and operating results, the company's plans, objectives, expectations and intentions, and the successful integration of our acquisitions or completion of anticipated benefits or strategic initiatives; our success and timing in developing and introducing new services and expanding our business; and other statements regarding our future financial performance. Although we believe that the plans and expectations reflected in any forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions, we can give no assurance that our plans and expectations will be attained, and therefore actual outcomes and results may differ materially from what is expressed or forecasted in such forward-looking statements.

    In addition to factors previously disclosed in Global Payments' reports filed with the SEC and those identified elsewhere in this communication, the following factors, among others, could cause actual results to differ materially from forward-looking statements or historical performance: the effects of global economic, political, market, health and social events or other conditions; foreign currency exchange, continuing inflation and rising interest rate risks; difficulties, delays and higher than anticipated costs related to integrating the businesses of acquired companies, including with respect to implementing controls to prevent a material security breach of any internal systems or to successfully manage credit and fraud risks in business units; the effect of a security breach or operational failure on our business; failing to comply with the applicable requirements of Visa, Mastercard or other payment networks or card schemes or changes in those requirements; the ability to maintain Visa and Mastercard registration and financial institution sponsorship; the ability to retain, develop and hire key personnel; the diversion of management's attention from ongoing business operations; the continued availability of capital and financing; increased competition in the markets in which we operate and our ability to increase our market share in existing markets and expand into new markets; our ability to safeguard our data; risks associated with our indebtedness; our ability to meet environmental, social or governance targets, goals and commitments; the potential effect of climate change including natural disasters; the effects of new or changes in current laws, regulations, credit card association rules or other industry standards on us or our partners and customers, including privacy and cybersecurity laws and regulations; and other events beyond our control, and other factors included in the "Risk Factors" in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and in other documents that we file with the SEC, which are available at https://www.sec.gov.

    These cautionary statements qualify all of our forward-looking statements, and you are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements. Our forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made and should not be relied upon as representing our plans and expectations as of any subsequent date. While we may elect to update or revise forward-looking statements at some time in the future, we specifically disclaim any obligation to publicly release the results of any revisions to our forward-looking statements, except as required by law.

    Includes adjustments to revenues for gross-up related payments (included in operating expenses) associated with certain lines of business to reflect economic benefits to the company. For the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, net revenue adjustments also included $0.5 million and $0.9 million, respectively, to eliminate the effect of acquisition accounting fair value adjustments for software-related contract liabilities associated with acquired businesses. Adjustments for the three months ended September 30, 2022 also included a $4.7 million adjustment to exclude revenues that were associated with certain excluded expenses of our consumer business, which was divested in April 2023.

     

     

     

    (2) 

     

    For the three months ended September 30, 2023, earnings adjustments to operating income included $340.8 million in cost of services (COS) and $120.0 million in selling, general and administrative expenses (SG&A). Adjustments to COS included amortization of acquired intangibles of $340.4 million and other items of $0.4 million. Adjustments to SG&A included share-based compensation expense of $36.6 million, acquisition, integration and separation expenses of $75.1 million, facilities exit charges of $3.7 million, and other items of $4.6 million.

     

     

    For the three months ended September 30, 2022, earnings adjustments to operating income included $307.0 million in COS and $192.1 million in SG&A. Adjustments to COS included amortization of acquired intangibles of $306.0 million and other items of $1.0 million. Adjustments to SG&A included share-based compensation expense of $37.1 million, acquisition, integration and separation expenses of $106.8 million, facilities exit charges of $31.7 million, and other items of $16.5 million.

     

     

     

     

     

    Acquisition, integration and separation expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2022 included $34.1 million related to our divested consumer business. These incremental expenses, which include card and marketing expenses, compensation and benefit expenses, and other expenses, were incurred as a result of contractual obligations with the purchasers of the consumer business and do not reflect the manner in which the company would have operated the business and would not have otherwise been incurred absent the transaction.

     

     

     

     

     

    For the three months ended September 30, 2022, earnings adjustments to operating income also included the $48.9 million loss on business dispositions.

     

     

     

    (3) 

     

    Income taxes on adjustments reflect the tax effect of earnings adjustments to income before income taxes. The tax rate used in determining the tax impact of earnings adjustments is either the jurisdictional statutory rate in effect at the time of the adjustment or the jurisdictional expected annual effective tax rate for the period, depending on the nature and timing of the adjustment.

     

     

    See "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" discussion on Schedule 10.

     (3)

     

    Income taxes on adjustments reflect the tax effect of earnings adjustments to income before income taxes. The tax rate used in determining the tax impact of earnings adjustments is either the jurisdictional statutory rate in effect at the time of the adjustment or the jurisdictional expected annual effective tax rate for the period, depending on the nature and timing of the adjustment.

     (4)

     

    Includes 404,593 dilutive shares for non-GAAP. All awards are antidilutive for GAAP due to reporting a net loss.

    (1) 

     

    Includes adjustments to revenues for gross-up related payments (included in operating expenses) associated with certain lines of business to reflect economic benefits to the company. For the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, net revenue adjustments also included $0.5 million and $0.9 million, respectively, to eliminate the effect of acquisition accounting fair value adjustments for software-related contract liabilities associated with acquired businesses. Adjustments for the three months ended September 30, 2022 also included a $4.7 million adjustment to exclude revenues that were associated with certain excluded expenses of our consumer business, which was divested in April 2023.

     

     

     

    (2) 

     

    For the three months ended September 30, 2023, earnings adjustments to operating income included $340.8 million in COS and $120.0 million in SG&A. Adjustments to COS included amortization of acquired intangibles of $340.4 million and other items of $0.4 million. Adjustments to SG&A included share-based compensation expense of $36.6 million, acquisition, integration and separation expenses of $75.1 million, facilities exit charges of $3.7 million, and other items of $4.6 million.

     

     

    For the three months ended September 30, 2022, earnings adjustments to operating income included $307.0 million in COS and $192.1 million in SG&A. Adjustments to COS included amortization of acquired intangibles of $306.0 million and other items of $1.0 million. Adjustments to SG&A included share-based compensation expense of $37.1 million, acquisition, integration and separation expenses of $106.8 million, facilities exit charges of $31.7 million, and other items of $16.5 million.

     

     

     

     

     

    Acquisition, integration and separation expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2022 included $34.1 million related to our divested consumer business. These incremental expenses, which include card and marketing expenses, compensation and benefit expenses, and other expenses, were incurred as a result of contractual obligations with the purchasers of the consumer business and do not reflect the manner in which the company would have operated the business and would not have otherwise been incurred absent the transaction.

     

     

     

     

     

    For the three months ended September 30, 2022, earnings adjustments to operating income also included the $48.9 million loss on business dispositions.

For nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, net revenue adjustments also included $1.6 million and $6.3 million, respectively, to eliminate the effect of acquisition accounting fair value adjustments for software-related contract liabilities associated with acquired businesses. Adjustments for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, also included a $19.7 million and $4.7 million adjustment, respectively, to exclude revenues that were associated with certain excluded expenses of our consumer business, which was divested in April 2023.

     

     

     

    (2) 

     

    For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, earnings adjustments to operating income included $988.7 million in COS and $561.6 million in SG&A.

Earnings adjustments to operating income also included the $139.1 million loss on business dispositions.

     

     

    Acquisition, integration and separation expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 included $93.6 million related to our divested consumer business. These incremental expenses, which include card and marketing expenses, compensation and benefit expenses, and other expenses, were incurred as a result of contractual obligations with the purchasers of the consumer business and do not reflect the manner in which the company would have operated the business and would not have otherwise been incurred absent the transaction.

    For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, earnings adjustments to operating income also included the $833.1 million noncash goodwill impairment charge related to our former Business and Consumer Solutions segment, driven by the strategic review and pending divestiture of our consumer business, and the $201.1 million loss on business dispositions.

    NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

    Global Payments supplements revenues, operating income, operating margin and net income and earnings per share (EPS) determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP by providing these measures with certain adjustments (such measures being non-GAAP financial measures) in this document to assist with evaluating our performance. In addition to GAAP measures, management uses these non-GAAP financial measures to focus on the factors the company believes are pertinent to the daily management of our operations. Management believes adjusted net revenue more closely reflects the economic benefits to the company's core business and allows for better comparisons with industry peers. Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures, together with other metrics, to set goals for and measure the performance of the business and to determine incentive compensation.

    Adjusted net revenue, adjusted operating income, adjusted operating margin, adjusted net income and adjusted EPS should be considered in addition to, and not as substitutes for, revenues, operating income, net income and earnings per share determined in accordance with GAAP. The non-GAAP financial measures reflect management's judgment of particular items, and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. Adjusted net revenue excludes gross-up related payments associated with certain lines of business to reflect economic benefits to the company. On a GAAP basis, these payments are presented gross in both revenues and operating expenses. Adjusted operating income, adjusted net income and adjusted EPS exclude acquisition-related amortization expense, share-based compensation expense, acquisition, integration and separation expense, gain or losses on business divestitures, and certain other items specific to each reporting period as more fully described in the accompanying reconciliations in Schedules 6 and 7. Adjusted operating margin is derived by dividing adjusted operating income by adjusted net revenue. The tax rate used in determining the income tax impact of earnings adjustments is either the jurisdictional statutory rate in effect at the time of the adjustment or the jurisdictional expected annual effective tax rate for the period, depending on the nature and timing of the adjustment.

    The supplemental non-GAAP information excludes the results of the consumer business that was divested in April 2023. Management believes that providing such supplemental financial information should enhance shareholders' ability to evaluate how the business will be managed going forward.
