The updated 2021 guidance shows revenue expectations reduced to $267 million to $269 million, with Adjusted EBITDA unchanged between $97 million and $102 million.

SOMERSET, N.J.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
CompoSecure Holdings, L.L.C. (“CompoSecure”), a leading provider of premium financial payment cards and an emergent provider of cryptocurrency storage and security solutions, today announced that it has reaffirmed its financial forecast for full year 2022 and provided updated full year 2021 financial guidance ranges.
CompoSecure is reaffirming its financial forecast for full year 2022 with net revenue expected to be in the range of $336 million to $376 million, and full year 2022 Adjusted EBITDA expected to be in the range of $100 million to $110 million.
CompoSecure also announced its full year 2021 financial guidance with Adjusted EBITDA consistent with expectations of between $97 million to $102 million (within the previously reported range of $95 million to $110 million) and full year revenue is now updated to be in the range of $267 million to $269 million (slightly below the previously reported $276 million bottom end of the revenue range). Q4/2021 revenue is expected to show growth of more than 35%, as compared to Q4/2020 and more than 12% as compared to Q3/2021.
“Customer demand in the fourth quarter was quite strong and returned to near pre-pandemic levels. We believe the slight decrease in net revenue we have experienced is driven by delays in shipping some of our metal payment cards in the fourth quarter of 2021 due to global supply chain constraints for raw material inputs, including both select polymers and payment card chips,” said Jon Wilk, CEO of CompoSecure. “Looking ahead, we are excited to bring the transaction with Roman DBDR to fruition and become a publicly traded company. We continue to be optimistic about the growth opportunities in our core business as well as the large opportunity in the cryptocurrency and broader digital asset marketplace we are attacking with the launch of our ArculusTM solution.”

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information
Due to the forward-looking nature of the foregoing projections, specific quantifications of the charges excluded from the non-GAAP financial measures, including with respect to depreciation, amortization, interest and taxes, that would be required to reconcile the non-GAAP financial measures included in such projections to GAAP measures are not available so it is not feasible to provide accurate forecasted non-GAAP reconciliations without unreasonable effort. Consequently, no disclosure of estimated comparable GAAP measures is included and no reconciliation of the forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures is included. Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial information presented in compliance with GAAP, and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies.
