Total Company GAAP revenues grow to $1.3 billion; GAAP earnings per share (EPS) of $0.57, adjusted EPS of $0.63

Digital money transfer revenues continue double-digit growth achieving quarterly highs for transactions and principal

Advances ecosystem strategy with the launch of WU Shop and an upcoming pilot of digital banking services in select countries

Continued strong cash flow generation, with over $510 million returned to shareholders year-to-date

The Western Union Company (NYSE:WU), a global leader in cross-border, cross-currency money movement and payments, today reported third quarter financial results and updated its 2021 full year financial outlook.

The Company's third quarter revenue of $1.3 billion increased 2% on a reported and constant currency basis. Third quarter growth was led by digital money transfer, which continued to deliver double-digit growth, and the Business Solutions segment, partially offset by retail money transfer due to the slow pace of economic recovery.

GAAP EPS in the third quarter was $0.57 compared to $0.55 in the prior year period. The year-over-year increase in GAAP EPS resulted from revenue growth and lower planned marketing investment, partially offset by a higher tax rate due to deferred taxes recorded on the pending sale of Business Solutions and higher technology investment.

Adjusted EPS in the third quarter was $0.63 compared to $0.57 in the prior year period. Year-over-year growth in adjusted EPS was driven by similar factors as above, excluding certain items. For a full reconciliation between GAAP and Adjusted EPS, please see the "Adjustment Items" section of this press release.

President and CEO Hikmet Ersek said, "While economic conditions and industry trends have not fully recovered, third quarter results highlight the resilience of our millions of customers around the world, who continue to provide much needed support to loved ones back home. Our digital business continues to generate strong revenue growth with $266 million generated in the quarter, maintaining the record-high level that we achieved in the second quarter and putting us well on pace to exceed $1 billion in revenue this year.

Ersek continued, "I am also excited to announce the continued progress of our ecosystem strategy with the upcoming digital banking pilot in Germany and Romania, which is on track to launch by year-end. Additionally, in select countries, we recently launched WU Shop, a shopping and cash back rewards program, initially targeting Western Union MyWU loyalty members."

CFO Raj Agrawal stated, "Year-to-date, we have generated strong operating cash flow of more than $680 million and have returned more than $510 million to shareholders through a combination of dividends and share repurchases."

Q3 Business Highlights

Consumer-to-Consumer (C2C) revenues were flat on a reported basis, or declined 1% constant currency, while transactions declined 1% during the quarter. Within the C2C segment, cross-border money transfer revenues grew 1%. Regionally, transaction growth in Europe and CIS, LACA, and MEASA was offset by declines in North America and APAC.

Digital money transfer revenues increased 15% on a reported basis, or 14% constant currency, and represented 24% and 37% of total C2C revenues and transactions, respectively. Digital money transfer reached new quarterly highs for transactions and principal. Westernunion.com revenue grew 12% on a reported basis, or 11% constant currency, including cross-border revenue growth of 16%. Westernunion.com growth moderated in the quarter, as expected, given the significant digital demand the Company experienced in 2020.

Westernunion.com average monthly active users for the third quarter increased 8% year-over-year and the Western Union mobile app was again the most downloaded mobile app among peer money transfer companies during the third quarter, according to data provided by mobile app marketing firm Sensor Tower¹.

Western Union Business Solutions revenues increased 31% on a reported basis, or 28% constant currency, primarily driven by increased payment services activity and the education vertical as the business grew over the impact of COVID-19. Other revenues, which consists primarily of retail bill payments in the U.S. and Argentina and money orders, increased 3%.

Q3 Financial Highlights

GAAP operating margin in the quarter was 24.8% compared to 22.7% in the prior year period. The adjusted operating margin in the quarter was 25.2% compared to 23.5% in the prior year period. The increase in the Company's GAAP and adjusted operating margins was driven by revenue growth in the Business Solutions segment and lower planned marketing investment, partially offset by higher technology investment, while the GAAP operating margin also increased as a result of restructuring costs in the prior year period. For a detailed reconciliation between GAAP and Adjusted operating margin, please see the "Adjustment Items" section of this press release.

The GAAP effective tax rate in the quarter was 20.2% compared to 12.4% in the prior year period, and the adjusted effective tax rate was 13.7% in the quarter compared to 12.7% in the prior year period. The increase in the Company's GAAP effective tax rate was due to deferred taxes recorded on the pending sale of Business Solutions.

Cash flow from operating activities was $686 million year-to-date. The Company returned $170 million to shareholders in the third quarter consisting of $95 million in dividends and $75 million of share repurchases.

2021 Outlook

The Company updated its financial outlook for 2021, which was previously reported on August 4. GAAP and constant currency revenue were revised to reflect recent business trends and macroeconomic conditions. Additionally, EPS ranges were narrowed with adjusted EPS revised to the higher end of the range, while GAAP EPS was revised slightly downward to reflect the recorded deferred taxes related to the pending sale of Business Solutions.

The outlook provided today assumes the macroeconomic environment in the fourth quarter will be similar to the third quarter:

Revenue	GAAP: approximately 150 basis points higher than constant currency revenue growth (previously mid-to-high single digit increase) Constant currency (excluding the impact of Argentina inflation): approximately 3% to 4% growth (previously mid-single digit increase)
Operating Profit Margin (GAAP and Adjusted)	GAAP: approximately 21% (no change) Adjusted: approximately 21.5% (no change)
Effective Tax Rate (GAAP and Adjusted)	Mid-teens range (no change)
EPS	GAAP: in a range of $1.80 - $1.85 (previously $1.82 - $1.92) Adjusted: in a range of $2.05 - $2.10 (previously $2.00 - $2.10)

Adjustment Items

Adjusted operating profit metrics for 2021 periods exclude acquisition and divestiture costs. Adjusted tax rate and earnings per share metrics for 2021 periods exclude the following items net of related taxes, as applicable: acquisition and divestiture costs, the impact from the gain on an investment sale (second quarter), debt retirement expenses (second quarter), Business Solutions change in permanent reinvestment tax assertion (third quarter), and non-cash expenses associated with the planned termination of the Company's pension plan (expected in the fourth quarter).

Adjusted operating profit, tax rate, and earnings per share metrics for 2020 periods exclude restructuring expenses and acquisition and divestiture costs, net of related taxes, as applicable.

Although the Company has previously incurred and can reasonably be expected to incur restructuring costs in the future, these expenses were specific to the implementation of a global strategy initiative and the Company has therefore provided adjusted financial results that exclude these expenses.

Additional Statistics

Additional key statistics for the quarter and historical trends can be found in the supplemental tables included with this press release.

All amounts included in the supplemental tables to this press release are rounded to the nearest tenth of a million, except as otherwise noted. As a result, the percentage changes and margins disclosed herein may not recalculate precisely using the rounded amounts provided.

Non-GAAP Measures

Western Union presents a number of non-GAAP financial measures because management believes that these metrics provide meaningful supplemental information in addition to the GAAP metrics and provide comparability and consistency to prior periods. Constant currency results assume foreign revenues are translated from foreign currencies to the U.S. dollar, net of the effect of foreign currency hedges, at rates consistent with those in the prior year.

Reconciliations of non-GAAP to comparable GAAP measures are available in the accompanying schedules and in the "Investor Relations" section of the Company's website at https://ir.westernunion.com.
