Nayax Reports Second Quarter 2023 Financial Results

Revenue Grew 36% Year-Over-Year to $56.2 Million

Recurring Revenue Grew 43% Year-Over-Year

Reaffirms: FY 2023 Revenue; YoY Growth of at least 35%; Earnings Outlook

HERZLIYA, Israel, Aug. 09, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Nayax Ltd. (Nasdaq, TASE: NYAX), a global commerce enablement and payments platform designed to enable retailers to provide consumers with digital, cashless, connected commerce experiences, and enhance consumer loyalty and conversion, today announced its financial results for the second quarter 2023.

"Our business momentum continued into the second quarter. We delivered strong revenue growth of 36% year-over-year and improved Adjusted EBITDA to $1.3 million, driven by the excellent growth of our recurring revenue sources and ongoing operating efficiencies across the business. More importantly, I am pleased that we reported an improvement in our overall gross margin mainly from our hardware component cost management." said Yair Nechmad, Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board. "These results reflect the continued execution of our strategic initiatives and the secular trends driving our core unattended market."

Mr. Nechmad continued, "Nayax's business fundamentals remain strong and our differentiated growth strategies and value proposition as a global solutions provider, with a complete end-to-end solution, continues to resonate with our diverse customer base. We remain focused on executing our strategies while maintaining a balance between growth and improved profitability."

Second Quarter Financial Highlights

(All comparisons are relative to the three-month period ended June 30, 2022, unless otherwise stated):

• Total revenue of $56.2 million, an increase of 36.4%.
• Recurring revenue from monthly SaaS and payment processing fees grew 42.9% and represented 65% of total revenue in Q2 2023.

Revenue Breakdown	Q2 2023 ($M)	Q2 2022 ($M)	Change (%)
SaaS Revenue	14.3	10.8	32.4%
Payment Processing Fees	22.0	14.6	50.7%
Total Recurring Revenue (*)	36.3	25.4	42.9%
POS Devices Revenue (**)	19.9	15.8	25.9%
Total Revenue	56.2	41.2	36.4%

(*) Recurring Revenue comprised of SaaS revenue and payment processing fees.

(**) POS Devices Revenue includes revenues that are derived from the sale of our hardware products.

• Q2 2023 gross margin was 37%, higher compared to Q1 2023 of 34% and Q2 2022 of 33%. The improvement was mainly attributed to our hardware component cost management execution and favorable hardware selling prices. During the quarter, hardware gross margin improved to 19% from 12% in Q1 2023. For 1H 2023, hardware gross margin was 15%, as previously communicated.
• Overall gross margin continues to be impacted by the higher mix of POS devices revenue, and increase in processing fees, which have lower margins than SaaS revenue.
• Gross profit reached $20.9 million, an increase of 48%.
• Operating expenses, including research and development, share-based compensation expenses, and depreciation and amortization amounted to $24.2 million, an increase of 6.5% from Q1 2023. This modest increase reflects select hiring during the quarter in the R&D and SG&A functions.  
• Q2 2023 Operating loss was $3.7 million, compared to an operating loss of $8.6 million, representing a significant improvement in expense management.
• Net loss for Q2 2023 was $4.0 million, or ($0.120) per diluted share, compared to a net loss of 10.3 million, or ($0.316) per diluted share.
• We continued to make significant strides in improving our bottom line. Adjusted EBITDA was a positive $1.3 million for the first time in two years, since Q1 2021, a marked improvement of $4.5 million to Adjusted EBITDA compared to negative $3.2 million in Q2 2022.

Explanation of Company Revenues

The Company provides payment processing and business operations software solutions and services through its global cashless payment platform. Nayax generates revenue from the sale of its POS devices, a monthly subscription fee for access to its SaaS solutions, and payment processing fees for transactions made at the point-of-sale and through its global platform, as provided in the chart above.

 In Q2 2023, the Company recorded strong growth in its recurring revenue from SaaS and payment processing, reflecting 65% of total revenue. This increase in recurring revenue represents growth in both the number of transactions processed through our devices as well as an increase in total transaction value, as well as an increase in SaaS revenue. This growth is a result of our growing install base of managed and connected devices as well as the continued rapid adoption of cashless payments by consumers.

Second Quarter Business and Operational Highlights

(All comparisons are relative to the three-month period ended June 30, 2022, unless otherwise stated):

• Expanded our diverse customer base this quarter, by adding 4,000 new customers across our global footprint, bringing our total customer base to 56,000, as of June 30, 2023, an increase of 47%
• Dollar-based net retention rate was 139%, reflecting the high satisfaction and loyalty our customers place on our comprehensive solutions to increase their revenue and improve their operations.
• Added almost 56,000 managed and connected devices during the quarter, driven by robust customer demand, bringing the total number of managed and connected devices to 824,000. This represents an increase of 38%.
• Number of processed transactions grew by 41% to 446 million.
• Total transaction value increased by 51% to $885 million.
• Extended our relationship with Primo Water in the US with additional Nayax devices and plan to expand globally.
• The leading US unattended retail provider extended its program with Nayax by purchasing devices for a water refilling project at a large car manufacturer.
• Added Synergy Energy as a new Tier 1 customer. Synergy Energy is Western Australia's largest energy retailer and generator. Synergy has chosen to rollout their EV DC chargers with Nayax devices embedded. This deployment of EV fast chargers with cashless payments is the first in Australia.

Operational Metrics

We regularly monitor various operational metrics to help us evaluate our business, identify trends affecting our business, formulate business plans and make strategic decisions. We believe these financial and operating metrics are useful in evaluating our business. Although these operating and financial metrics are frequently used by investors and security analysts in their evaluation of companies, such metrics have limitations as analytical tools, and should not be considered in isolation or as substitutes for analysis of our results of operations as reported under IFRS. In addition, our operating and financial metrics may be calculated in a different manner than similarly titled metrics used by other companies.

Recent Developments

The Israel Competition Authority (the "ICA") has requested from Nayax certain documents and other information related mainly to its acquisition of On Track Innovation Ltd. The Company has provided the requested information and commenced discussions with the ICA, which are ongoing. At this early stage, it is difficult to assess when this process will conclude and what the results might be.

Key Performance Indicators	Q2 2023		Q2 2022		Change (%)
Total Transaction Value ($m)	885		585		51%
Number of Processed Transactions (millions)	446		316		41%
Take Rate % (Payments) (*)	2.49%		2.50%		-0.4%
Managed and Connected Devices	824,000		595,000		38%

(*) Payment service providers typically take a percentage of every transaction in exchange for facilitating the movement of funds from the buyer to the seller. Take rate % (payments) is calculated by dividing the total dollar transaction value by the Company's processing revenue in the same quarter.

Outlook:

Full-Year 2023 Outlook: We are reaffirming our full-year 2023 outlook.

• Revenue on a constant currency basis to be in the range of $235 million to $240 million, representing year-over-year growth of at least 35%.
• Operating expenses to stay flat from Q4 2022 annualized run rate.
• Adjusted EBITDA to be between $3 to $7 million in 2023.

Full-Year 2023 Assumptions:

• Continued execution of strategic growth plans and benefits of secular trends in digital payments.
• Customer demand continues to be strong.
• Assumes no material changes in macroeconomic conditions.

The outlook provided above constitutes forward-looking information within the meaning of applicable securities laws and is based on a number of assumptions and subject to a number of risks. See cautionary note regarding "Forward-looking Statements" below.

We cannot reconcile expected 2023 Adjusted EBITDA to expected net income without unreasonable effort because certain items that impact net income and other reconciling metrics are out of our control and/or cannot be reasonably predicted at this time, which unavailable information could have a significant impact on our IFRS financial results.

Mid-Term Outlook:

• We are reaffirming our mid-term revenue outlook of 35% annual growth, driven by organic growth initiatives, with customer growth, market penetration and continued expansion of our integrated payments platform as well as our emerging growth engines and strategic M&A.

Long-Term Outlook:

• We are reaffirming our long-term outlook of 35% annual growth, driven by organic growth initiatives and strategic M&A.
• Our long-term gross margin target of 50% is driven by leasing options for IoT POS, growing SaaS revenue and payment processing fees along with services offering through our emerging growth initiatives.
• Our long-term Adjusted EBITDA margin target is 30%.

Forward-Looking Statements

This press release contains statements that constitute forward-looking statements. Many of the forward-looking statements contained in this press release can be identified by the use of forward-looking words such as "anticipate," "believe," "could," "expect," "should," "plan," "intend," "estimate" and "potential," among others. Forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements regarding our intent, belief or current expectations. Forward-looking statements are based on our management's beliefs and assumptions and on information currently available to our management. Such statements are subject to risks and uncertainties, and actual results may differ materially from those expressed or implied in the forward-looking statements due to of various factors, including, but not limited to: our expectations regarding general market conditions, including as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic and other global economic trends; changes in consumer tastes and preferences; fluctuations in inflation, interest rate and exchange rates in the global economic environment over the world; the availability of qualified personnel and the ability to retain such personnel; changes in commodity costs, labor, distribution and other operating costs; our ability to implement our growth strategy; changes in government regulation and tax matters; other factors that may affect our financial condition, liquidity and results of operations; general economic, political, demographic and business conditions in Israel; the success of operating initiatives, including advertising and promotional efforts and new product and concept development by us and our competitors; and other risk factors discussed under "Risk Factors" in our annual report on Form 20-F filed with the SEC on March 1, 2023 (our "Annual Report"). The preceding list is not intended to be an exhaustive list of all of our forward-looking statements. The forward- looking statements are based on our beliefs, assumptions and expectations of future performance, taking into account the information currently available to us. These statements are only estimates based upon our current expectations and projections about future events. There are important factors that could cause our actual results, levels of activity, performance or achievements to differ materially from the results, levels of activity, performance or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. In particular, you should consider the risks provided under "Risk Factors" in our Annual Report. You should not rely upon forward-looking statements as predictions of future events. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee that future results, levels of activity, performance and events and circumstances reflected in the forward-looking statements will be achieved or will occur. Each forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date of the particular statement. Except as required by law, we undertake no obligation to update publicly any forward-looking statements for any reason, to conform these statements to actual results or to changes in our expectations.

Use of Non-IFRS Financial Information

In addition to various operational metrics and financial measures in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted under International Financial Reporting Standards, or IFRS, this press release contains Adjusted EBITDA, a non-IFRS financial measure, as a measure to evaluate our past results and future prospects.

Adjusted EBITDA

Adjusted EBITDA is a non-IFRS financial measure that we define as loss for the period plus finance expenses, tax expense, depreciation and amortization, share-based compensation costs, non-recurring issuance costs and our share in losses of associates accounted for by the equity method.

We present Adjusted EBITDA in this press release because it is a measure that our management and board of directors utilize as a measure to evaluate our operating performance and for internal planning and forecasting purposes. Accordingly, we believe that Adjusted EBITDA provides useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating our operating results in the same manner as our management and board of directors.

We believe that Adjusted EBITDA, when taken collectively with financial measures prepared in accordance with IFRS, may be helpful to investors because it provides an additional tool for investors to use in evaluating our ongoing operating results and trends and in comparing our financial results with other companies because it provides consistency and comparability with past financial performance. However, our management does not consider this non-IFRS measure in isolation or as an alternative to financial measures determined in accordance with IFRS.

Adjusted EBITDA is presented for supplemental informational purposes only, has limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for financial information presented in accordance with IFRS. Adjusted EBITDA may be different from similarly-titled measures used by other companies. The principal limitation of Adjusted EBITDA is that it excludes significant expenses that are required by IFRS to be recorded in our financial statements, as further detailed above. In addition, it is subject to inherent limitations as it reflects the exercise of judgment by management about which expenses are excluded or included in determining Adjusted EBITDA.

A reconciliation is provided at the end of this press release for Adjusted EBITDA to net loss, the most directly comparable financial measure prepared in accordance with IFRS. Investors are encouraged to review net loss and the reconciliation to Adjusted EBITDA included below and to not rely on any single financial measure to evaluate our business.

Constant Currency

Nayax presents constant currency information to provide a framework for assessing how our underlying businesses performed excluding the effect of foreign currency rate fluctuations. Future expected results for transactions in currencies other than United States dollars are converted into United States dollars using the exchange rates in effect in the last month of the reporting period. Nayax provides this financial information to aid investors in better understanding our performance. These constant currency financial measures presented in this release should not be considered as a substitute for, or superior to, the measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with IFRS.

The Company cannot provide expected 2023 net income without unreasonable effort because certain items that impact net income are out of the Company's control and/or cannot be reasonably predicted at this time, which unavailable information could have a significant impact on the Company's IFRS financial results.
