Raises annual guidance

SAN JUAN, Puerto Rico--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- EVERTEC, Inc. (NYSE: EVTC) (“Evertec”, the “Company”, “we” or “our”) today announced results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2023.

• Revenue increased 6% to $159.8 million
• GAAP Net Income attributable to common shareholders decreased 23% to $30.1 million and decreased 13% to $0.46 per diluted share

First Quarter 2023 Results

Revenue. Total revenue for the quarter ended March 31, 2023 was $159.8 million, an increase of 6% compared with $150.2 million in the prior year quarter. The revenue increase was driven by merchant acquiring and payment processing Puerto Rico, which both benefited from increased transactions. Merchant acquiring revenue also reflected a higher spread per transaction and continues to benefit from pricing initiatives. Payments Puerto Rico continues to benefit from growth in ATH Movil revenues, primarily ATH Business, as we continue to experience higher transaction volumes as well as higher sales volume. Revenues also reflect the contribution from organic growth in our Payments LATAM segment, the positive impact from the tuck-in acquisition in Puerto Rico completed in the second quarter of 2022 and the revenue contribution from the BBR and paySmart acquisitions in LATAM completed in the third quarter of 2022 and first quarter of 2023, respectively. These increases were partially offset by the impact from the assets sold as part of the Popular Transaction in the third quarter of 2022.

Net Income attributable to common shareholders. For the quarter ended March 31, 2023, GAAP Net Income attributable to common shareholders was $30.1 million, or $0.46 per diluted share, a decrease of $8.8 million or $0.07 per diluted share as compared to the prior year. The decrease was primarily driven by an increase in costs of revenues, primarily due to the new revenue sharing agreement with Banco Popular, as well as an increase in personnel costs, primarily attributable to increased headcount in Latin America including the added headcount from the BBR and paySmart acquisitions, provisions for operational losses, printing supplies and cloud services. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased mainly due to an increase in personnel costs. Additionally, the current quarter reflects an unrealized loss on foreign currency remeasurement of $4.9 million compared with an unrealized gain of $2.7 million in the prior year quarter.

Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin. For the quarter ended March 31, 2023, Adjusted EBITDA was $67.1 million, a decrease of $5.6 million when compared to the prior year quarter. Effective for the quarter ended March 31, 2023, the Company modified the manner in which it calculates Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted earnings per common share to exclude the impact of unrealized gains and losses from foreign currency remeasurement for assets and liabilities denominated in non-functional currencies. These non-cash unrealized gains and losses are non-operational in nature and we believe that excluding these will better present the overall financial performance of our core business, and help facilitate comparison with industry peers. The Company has recast prior periods to conform with the modified definition of Adjusted EBITDA. Adjusted EBITDA margin (Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of total revenues) was 42.0%, a decrease of approximately 640 basis points from the prior year. The decrease in Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin reflects the impact of the increased expenses, as discussed above, and the impact from the sale of assets to Popular as part of the Popular Transaction, which were of higher margin.

Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted earnings per common share. For the quarter ended March 31, 2023, Adjusted Net Income was $45.6 million, a decrease of $2.4 million compared with $48.0 million, as recast, in the prior year. Adjusted earnings per common share was $0.69, an increase of $0.03 per diluted share compared to $0.66, as recast, in the prior year. Similar to Adjusted EBITDA, the Company has recast prior periods to conform with the modified definitions of Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted earnings per common share. The increase was driven by the lower share count, which reflects the impact from the share repurchases completed in 2022 and the shares received as part of the Popular Transaction, and a lower adjusted tax rate in the quarter driven by certain jurisdictions in LATAM.

Share Repurchase

During the three months ended March 31, 2023, the Company repurchased 187,976 shares of its common stock at an average price of $33.35 per share for a total of $6.3 million. As of March 31, 2023, a total of approximately $72 million remained available for future use under the Company’s share repurchase program.

2023 Outlook

The Company is revising its financial outlook for 2023 as follows:

• Total consolidated revenue is now anticipated to be between $644 million and $652 million representing growth of approximately 4.1% to 5.4% growth, compared with $638 to $647 million previously estimated.
• Adjusted earnings per common share between $2.59 to $2.68 representing approximately 2.4% to 6% growth as compared to $2.53 in 2022, as recast,, compared with $2.53 to $2.64 previously estimated.
• We continue to expect capital expenditures to be approximately $70 million.
• We continue to expect an effective tax rate of approximately 16% to 17%.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information

The non-GAAP measures referenced in this earnings release are supplemental measures of the Company’s performance and are not required by, or presented in accordance with, accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). They are not measurements of the Company’s financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered as alternatives to total revenue, net income or any other performance measures derived in accordance with GAAP or as alternatives to cash flows from operating activities, as indicators of operating performance or as measures of the Company’s liquidity. In addition to GAAP measures, management uses these non-GAAP measures to focus on the factors the Company believes are pertinent to the daily management of the Company’s operations and believes that they are also frequently used by analysts, investors and other stakeholders to evaluate companies in our industry. These measures have certain limitations in that they do not include the impact of certain expenses that are reflected in our condensed consolidated statements of operations that are necessary to run our business. Other companies, including other companies in our industry, may not use these measures or may calculate these measures differently than as presented herein, limiting their usefulness as comparative measures.

Reconciliations of the non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measure are included at the end of this earnings release. These non-GAAP measures include EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Earnings per common share, each as defined below.

EBITDA is defined as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization.

Adjusted EBITDA is defined as EBITDA further adjusted to exclude certain non-cash items and unusual expenses such as: share-based compensation, restructuring related expenses, fees and expenses from corporate transactions such as M&A activity and financing, equity investment income net of dividends received, and the impact from unrealized gains and losses on foreign currency remeasurement for assets and liabilities in non-functional currency. This measure is reported to the chief operating decision maker for purposes of making decisions about allocating resources to the segments and assessing their performance. For this reason, Adjusted EBITDA, as it relates to the Company's segments, is presented in conformity with Accounting Standards Codification 280, Segment Reporting, and is excluded from the definition of non-GAAP financial measures under the Securities and Exchange Commission's Regulation G and Item 10(e) of Regulation S-K. The Company's presentation of Adjusted EBITDA is substantially consistent with the equivalent measurements that are contained in the secured credit facilities in testing EVERTEC Group’s compliance with covenants therein such as the secured leverage ratio.

Adjusted Net Income is defined as Adjusted EBITDA less: operating depreciation and amortization expense, defined as GAAP Depreciation and amortization less amortization of intangibles related to acquisitions such as customer relationships, trademarks; cash interest expense defined as GAAP interest expense, less GAAP interest income adjusted to exclude non-cash amortization of debt issue costs, premium and accretion of discount; income tax expense which is calculated on adjusted pre-tax income using the applicable GAAP tax rate, adjusted for uncertain tax position releases, tax true-ups, windfall from share-based compensation, unrealized gains and losses from foreign currency remeasurement, among others; and non-controlling interest which is the 35% non-controlling equity interest in Evertec Colombia, net of amortization for intangibles created as part of the purchase.

Adjusted Earnings per common share is defined as Adjusted Net Income divided by diluted shares outstanding.

The Company uses Adjusted Net Income to measure the Company's overall profitability because the Company believes it better reflects the comparable operating performance by excluding the impact of the non-cash amortization and depreciation that was created as a result of merger and acquisition activity. In addition, in evaluating EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Earnings per common share, you should be aware that in the future the Company may incur expenses such as those excluded in calculating them.

We intend such forward-looking statements to be covered by the safe harbor provisions for forward-looking statements contained in Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

Various factors that could cause actual future results and other future events to differ materially from those estimated by management include, but are not limited to: the Company’s reliance on its relationship with Popular, Inc. (“Popular”) for a significant portion of its revenues pursuant to the Company’s second amended and restated Master Services Agreement ("MSA") with them, and to grow the Company’s merchant acquiring business; the Company’s ability to renew its client contracts on terms favorable to the Company, including but not limited to the current term and any extension of the MSA with Popular; the Company’s dependence on its processing systems, technology infrastructure, security systems and fraudulent payment detection systems, as well as on the Company’s personnel and certain third parties with whom it does business, and the risks to the Company’s business if its systems are hacked or otherwise compromised; the Company’s ability to develop, install and adopt new software, technology and computing systems; a decreased client base due to consolidations and failures in the financial services industry; the credit risk of the Company’s merchant clients, for which it may also be liable; the continuing market position of the ATH network; a reduction in consumer confidence, whether as a result of a global economic downturn or otherwise, which leads to a decrease in consumer spending; the Company’s dependence on credit card associations, including any adverse changes in credit card association or network rules or fees; changes in the regulatory environment and changes in international, legal, tax, political, administrative or economic conditions; the geographical concentration of the Company’s business in Puerto Rico, including its business with the government of Puerto Rico and its instrumentalities, which are facing severe political and fiscal challenges; additional adverse changes in the general economic conditions in Puerto Rico, whether as a result of the government’s debt crisis or otherwise, including the continued migration of Puerto Ricans to the U.S. mainland, which could negatively affect the Company’s customer base, general consumer spending, the Company’s cost of operations and the Company’s ability to hire and retain qualified employees; operating an international business in Latin America and the Caribbean, in jurisdictions with potential political and economic instability; the impact of foreign exchange rates on operations; the Company’s ability to protect its intellectual property rights against infringement and to defend itself against claims of infringement brought by third parties; the Company’s ability to comply with U.S. federal, state, local and foreign regulatory requirements; evolving industry standards and adverse changes in global economic, political and other conditions; the Company’s level of indebtedness and restrictions contained in the Company’s debt agreements, including the secured credit facilities, as well as debt that could be incurred in the future; the Company’s ability to prevent a cybersecurity attack or breach to its information security; the possibility that the Company could lose its preferential tax rate in Puerto Rico; the possibility of future catastrophic hurricanes, earthquakes and other potential natural disasters affecting the Company’s main markets in Latin America and the Caribbean; and uncertainty related to the effect of the discontinuation of the London Interbank Offered Rate; the elimination of Popular's ownership of the Company's common stock; and the other factors set forth under "Part 1, Item 1A. Risk Factors," in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on February 24, 2023, as any such factors may be updated from time to time in the Company’s filings with the SEC.
