Raises full-year 2022 financial guidance

WEX (NYSE:WEX), the global commerce platform that simplifies the business of running a business, today reported financial results for the three months ended March 31, 2022.

"We entered this year with significant momentum and delivered impressive financial results during the first quarter," said Melissa Smith, WEX's Chair and Chief Executive Officer.

Ms. Smith added, "I am incredibly proud of the way our team executed, helping our customers simplify the business of running a business. We continue to win new customers in each of our segments, enhance our leading technology platform and capitalize on the opportunities in front of us. All of these trends give me confidence in our ability to deliver on our long-term financial targets."

First Quarter 2022 Financial Results

Total revenue for the first quarter of 2022 increased 26% to $517.5 million from $410.8 million for the first quarter of 2021. This revenue increase in the quarter includes a $41.1 million favorable impact from fuel prices and spreads and a $2.8 million negative impact from foreign exchange rates.

Net income attributable to shareholders on a GAAP basis increased by $125.3 million to net income of $122.8 million, or $2.71 per diluted share for the first quarter of 2022, compared with a net loss of $2.6 million, or $(0.06) per diluted share, for the first quarter of 2021. The Company's adjusted net income attributable to shareholders, which is a non-GAAP measure, was $131.1 million for the first quarter of 2022, or $2.88 per diluted share, up 61% per diluted share from $81.3 million or $1.79 per diluted share for the same period last year. See Exhibit 1 for a full explanation and reconciliation of adjusted net income attributable to shareholders and adjusted net income attributable to shareholders per diluted share to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures.

First Quarter 2022 Performance Metrics

Total volume across the company totaled $44.8 billion an increase of 50% from first quarter of 2021.
Fleet Solutions segment payment processing transactions increased 12% from the first quarter of 2021 to 132.7 million.
Average number of vehicles serviced was approximately 17.2 million, an increase of 9% from the first quarter of 2021.
Health and Employee Benefit Solutions' average number of Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) accounts in the U.S. grew 15% to 17.8 million from 15.5 million in the first quarter of 2021.
Travel and Corporate Solutions' segment purchase volume grew 93% to $11.8 billion from $6.1 billion in the first quarter of 2021.

"On an adjusted basis, the first quarter of 2022 was the most profitable in WEX's history, as we continue to execute well on all fronts. Continued recovery in travel volumes, a strong increase in fuel volumes, a very good open enrollment season and higher fuel prices all contributed to record quarterly revenue," said Jen Kimball, WEX's Interim Chief Financial Officer. "Given the excellent first quarter results and our improved outlook for the remainder of the year, we are raising our full year guidance."

Financial Guidance and Assumptions

The Company provides revenue guidance on a GAAP basis and earnings guidance on a non-GAAP basis, due to the uncertainty and the indeterminate amount of certain elements that are included in reported GAAP earnings.

For the second quarter of 2022, the Company expects revenue in the range of $555 million to $565 million and adjusted net income in the range of $154 million to $159 million, or $3.35 to $3.45 per diluted share.
For the full year 2022, the Company now expects revenue in the range of $2.155 billion to $2.195 billion, up from the prior guidance range of $2.050 billion to $2.090 billion. Adjusted net income is now expected to be in the range of $569 million to $588 million, or $12.40 to $12.80 per diluted share, an increase from the prior guidance range of $517 million to $536 million, or $11.20 to $11.60 per diluted share.

Second quarter and full year 2022 guidance is based on an assumed average U.S. retail fuel prices of $4.46 and $4.13 per gallon, respectively. The fuel prices referenced above are based on the applicable NYMEX futures price from the week of April 18, 2022. Our guidance assumes approximately 47.5 million fully diluted shares outstanding for the full year.

The Company's adjusted net income guidance, which is a non-GAAP measure, excludes unrealized gains and losses on financial instruments, net foreign currency gains and losses, changes in fair value of contingent consideration, acquisition-related intangible amortization, other acquisition and divestiture related items, stock-based compensation, other costs, gains and losses on divestitures, impairment charges, debt restructuring and debt issuance cost amortization, and certain tax related items. We are unable to reconcile our adjusted net income guidance to the comparable GAAP measure without unreasonable effort because of the difficulty in predicting the amounts to be adjusted, including, but not limited to, foreign currency exchange rates, unrealized gains and losses on financial instruments, and acquisition and divestiture related items, which may have a significant impact on our financial results.

¹As the Company reported a net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2021 under U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP"), the diluted weighted average shares outstanding equals the basic weighted average shares outstanding for that period. The non-GAAP adjustments described above resulted in adjusted net income attributable to shareholders (versus a loss on a GAAP basis) for the three months ended March 31, 2021. Therefore, dilutive common stock equivalents have been included in the calculation of adjusted diluted weighted average shares outstanding to arrive at adjusted per share data.

²During the quarter ended March 31, 2022, the dilutive impact of convertible notes has been calculated under the 'if-converted' method in accordance with GAAP. Under such method, $3.8 million of interest expense associated with our convertible notes, net of tax, was added back to adjusted net income and approximately 1.6 million shares of the Company's common stock associated with the assumed conversion of the convertible notes as of the beginning of the period were included in the calculation of adjusted net income per diluted share, as the effect of including such adjustments was dilutive.

Reconciliation of GAAP Operating Income to Total Segment Adjusted Operating Income and Adjusted Operating Income

		2022			2021
Operating income	$	122,274		$	50,541
Unallocated corporate expenses		21,011			16,209

Unallocated corporate expenses		(21,011	)		(16,209	)
Adjusted operating income	$	202,920		$	139,608

The Company's non-GAAP adjusted net income excludes unrealized gains and losses on financial instruments, net foreign currency gains and losses, changes in fair value of contingent consideration, acquisition-related intangible amortization, other acquisition and divestiture related items, stock-based compensation, other costs, debt restructuring and debt issuance cost amortization, adjustments attributable to our non-controlling interests and certain tax related items.

The Company's non-GAAP adjusted operating income excludes acquisition-related intangible amortization, other acquisition and divestiture related items, loss on sale of subsidiary, stock-based compensation, other costs, and debt restructuring costs. Total segment adjusted operating income incorporates these same adjustments and further excludes unallocated corporate expenses.

Although adjusted net income, adjusted operating income and total segment adjusted operating income are not calculated in accordance with GAAP, these non-GAAP measures are integral to the Company's reporting and planning processes and the chief operating decision maker of the Company uses segment adjusted operating income to allocate resources among our operating segments. The Company considers these measures integral because they exclude the above specified items that the Company's management excludes in evaluating the Company's performance. Specifically, in addition to evaluating the Company's performance on a GAAP basis, management evaluates the Company's performance on a basis that excludes the above items because:

Exclusion of the non-cash, mark-to-market adjustments on financial instruments, including interest rate swap agreements and investment securities, helps management identify and assess trends in the Company's underlying business that might otherwise be obscured due to quarterly non-cash earnings fluctuations associated with these financial instruments. Additionally, the non-cash mark-to-market adjustments on financial instruments are difficult to forecast accurately, making comparisons across historical and future quarters difficult to evaluate.
Net foreign currency gains and losses primarily result from the remeasurement to functional currency of cash, accounts receivable and accounts payable balances, certain intercompany notes denominated in foreign currencies and any gain or loss on foreign currency hedges relating to these items. The exclusion of these items helps management compare changes in operating results between periods that might otherwise be obscured due to currency fluctuations.
The change in fair value of contingent consideration, which is related to the acquisition of certain contractual rights to serve as custodian or sub-custodian to health savings accounts, is dependent upon changes in future interest rate assumptions and has no significant impact on the ongoing operations of the Company. Additionally, the non-cash, mark-to-market adjustments on financial instruments are difficult to forecast accurately, making comparisons across historical and future quarters difficult to evaluate.
The Company considers certain acquisition-related costs, including investment banking fees, warranty and indemnity insurance, certain integration related expenses, certain financing costs and amortization of acquired intangibles, as well as gains and losses from divestitures, to be unpredictable, dependent on factors that may be outside of our control and unrelated to the continuing operations of the acquired or divested business or the Company. In addition, the size and complexity of an acquisition, which often drives the magnitude of acquisition-related costs, may not be indicative of such future costs. The Company believes that excluding acquisition-related costs and gains or losses on divestitures facilitates the comparison of our financial results to the Company's historical operating results and to other companies in our industry.
Stock-based compensation is different from other forms of compensation as it is a non-cash expense. For example, a cash salary generally has a fixed and unvarying cash cost. In contrast, the expense associated with an equity-based award is generally unrelated to the amount of cash ultimately received by the employee, and the cost to the Company is based on a stock-based compensation valuation methodology and underlying assumptions that may vary over time.
We exclude certain other costs when evaluating our continuing business performance when such items are not consistently occurring and do not reflect expected future operating expense, nor provide insight into the fundamentals of current or past operations of our business. These include costs related to certain identified initiatives (including technology initiatives) to further streamline the business, improve the Company's efficiency, create synergies, and globalize the Company's operations, all with an objective to improve scale and efficiency and increase profitability going forward. For the three months ended March 31, 2021, other costs additionally include a penalty incurred on a vendor contract termination.
Debt restructuring and debt issuance cost amortization are unrelated to the continuing operations of the Company. Debt restructuring costs are not consistently occurring and do not reflect expected future operating expense, nor do they provide insight into the fundamentals of current or past operations of our business. In addition, since debt issuance cost amortization is dependent upon the financing method, which can vary widely company to company, we believe that excluding these costs helps to facilitate comparison to historical results as well as to other companies within our industry.
The adjustments attributable to non-controlling interests, including adjustments to the redemption value of a non-controlling interest, have no significant impact on the ongoing operations of the business.
The tax related items are the difference between the Company's U.S. GAAP tax provision and a pro forma tax provision based upon the Company's adjusted net income before taxes as well as the impact from certain discrete tax items. The methodology utilized for calculating the Company's adjusted net income tax provision is the same methodology utilized in calculating the Company's U.S. GAAP tax provision.
The Company does not allocate certain corporate expenses to our operating segments, as these items are centrally controlled and are not directly attributable to any reportable segment.

For the same reasons, WEX believes that adjusted net income, adjusted operating income and total segment adjusted operating income may also be useful to investors when evaluating the Company's performance. However, because adjusted net income, adjusted operating income and total segment adjusted operating income are non-GAAP measures, they should not be considered as a substitute for, or superior to, net income, operating income or cash flows from operating activities as determined in accordance with GAAP. In addition, adjusted net income, adjusted operating income and total segment adjusted operating income as used by WEX may not be comparable to similarly titled measures employed by other companies.

To determine the impact of foreign exchange translation ("FX") on revenue, revenue from entities whose functional currency is not denominated in U.S. dollars, as well as revenue from purchase volume transacted in non-U.S. denominated currencies, were translated using the weighted average exchange rates for the same period in the prior year, exclusive of revenue derived from acquisitions for one year following the acquisition date.

To determine the impact of price per gallon of fuel ("PPG") on revenue, revenue subject to changes in fuel prices was calculated based on the average retail price of fuel for the same period in the prior year for the portion of our business that earns revenue based on a percentage of fuel spend, exclusive of revenue derived from 2020 acquisitions for one year following the acquisition dates. For the portions of our business that earn revenue based on margin spreads, revenue was calculated utilizing the comparable margin from the prior year.

To determine the estimated earnings impact of FX on revenue and expenses from entities whose functional currency is not denominated in U.S. dollars, as well as revenue and variable expenses from purchase volume transacted in non-U.S. denominated currencies, amounts were translated using the weighted average exchange rates for the same period in the prior year, net of tax, exclusive of revenue and expenses derived from acquisitions for one year following the acquisition date.

To determine the estimated earnings impact of PPG, revenue and certain variable expenses impacted by changes in fuel prices were adjusted based on the average retail price of fuel for the same period in the prior year for the portion of our business that earns revenue based on a percentage of fuel spend, net of applicable taxes, exclusive of revenue and expenses derived from 2020 acquisitions for one year following the acquisition dates. For the portions of our business that earn revenue based on margin spreads, revenue was adjusted to the comparable margin from the prior year, net of non-controlling interests and applicable taxes.
