Raises annual guidance

SAN JUAN, Puerto Rico--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- EVERTEC, Inc. (NYSE: EVTC) (“Evertec”, the “Company”, “we” or “our”) today announced results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2023.

Third Quarter 2023 Highlights

• Revenue increased 19% to $173.2 million
• GAAP Net Income attributable to common shareholders decreased 93% to $10.0 million and decreased 93% to $0.15 per diluted share, as the prior year included the gain from the Popular Transaction and the current year includes the loss on foreign currency swap
• Adjusted EBITDA increased 31% to $78.7 million and Adjusted earnings per common share increased 51% to $0.80
• Acquired 4.8 million shares of Sinqia for $26.5 million
• Entered into a foreign currency swap to fix the Sinqia acquisition purchase price in US dollars

Mac Schuessler, President and Chief Executive Officer stated, “We are pleased with the revenue growth across all of our segments. We continue to work diligently to close the Sinqia acquisition in the fourth quarter of 2023, and as we begin to look towards 2024, we are focused on collaborating across the Company to continue to cross sell our products across all of our regions."

Third Quarter 2023 Results

Revenue. Total revenue for the quarter ended September 30, 2023 was $173.2 million, an increase of 19% compared with $145.8 million in the prior year quarter, reflecting growth across all of the Company's segments. Merchant acquiring revenue growth was a result of an increase in sales volume and spread, and the continued benefit from pricing initiatives. Payment processing revenues in Puerto Rico continue to reflect an increase in transaction volumes as well as continued growth in ATH Movil revenues, primarily ATH Business. Payment processing LATAM revenue benefited from a catch-up adjustment related to our processing contract with Getnet Chile of $6.3 million as we now estimate that minimums on the contract will be exceeded. LATAM revenues also benefited from continued organic growth across regions and the contribution from the paySmart acquisition completed in the first quarter of 2023. Business solutions revenue increased mainly due to the impact in the prior year of the $6.9 million one-time credit granted to Popular upon closing of the Popular Transaction in the third quarter of 2022 as well as an increase in hardware and software sales.

Net Income attributable to common shareholders. For the quarter ended September 30, 2023, GAAP Net Income attributable to common shareholders was $10.0 million, or $0.15 per diluted share, a decrease of $127.8 million or $1.91 per diluted share as compared to the prior year. The decrease was primarily driven by the impact in the prior year of the gain recognized in connection with closing the Popular Transaction of $135.6 million and the loss on foreign currency swap to fix the price of the Sinqia acquisition of $29.2 million in the current year. Partially offsetting these negative impacts was the increase in revenues discussed above and an income tax benefit in the quarter of $4.9 million, primarily driven by the foreign currency hedge loss, compared with an income tax expense in the prior year quarter of $9.0 million, driven by the gain from the Popular transaction. Costs of revenues increased primarily due to an increase in personnel costs, and an increase in professional fees and cloud services, partially offset by recoveries of previously recorded operational losses. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased mainly due to an increase in personnel costs as well as an increase in professional fees mainly related to corporate development initiatives. Additionally, the current quarter reflects a non-cash unrealized loss on foreign currency remeasurement of $2.8 million compared with a non-cash unrealized loss of $7.8 million in the prior year quarter.

Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin. For the quarter ended September 30, 2023, Adjusted EBITDA was $78.7 million, an increase of $18.5 million when compared to the prior year quarter. Adjusted EBITDA margin (Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of total revenues) was 45.4%, an increase of approximately 420 basis points from the prior year. The increase in Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin reflect the increase in revenues, including the impact of the revenue recognized from Getnet Chile discussed above that had no associated incremental cost of revenues, partially offset by the increase in expenses discussed above.

Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted earnings per common share. For the quarter ended September 30, 2023, Adjusted Net Income was $52.4 million, an increase of $16.8 million compared to $35.6 million in the prior year. The increase was driven by the higher adjusted EBITDA, lower non-gaap tax expense and lower interest expense, partially offset by higher operating depreciation and amortization. Adjusted earnings per common share was $0.80, an increase of $0.27 per diluted share compared to $0.53, in the prior year driven by the increase in adjusted net income and a lower share count that reflects the impact from the share repurchases completed in 2022 and the shares received as part of the Popular Transaction.

Share Repurchase

During the three months ended September 30, 2023, the Company repurchased 208,564 shares of its common stock at an average price of $37.44 per share for a total of $7.8 million. As of September 30, 2023, a total of approximately $150 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 $663 million and $667 million representing growth of approximately 7% to 8% growth, compared with $652 to $658 million previously estimated.
• Adjusted earnings per common share between $2.81 to $2.86 representing approximately 11% to 13% growth as compared to $2.53 in 2022, as recast, and compared with $2.75 to $2.83 previously estimated.
• We continue to expect capital expenditures to be approximately $70 million.
• The effective tax rate is now anticipated to be approximately 16%, compared with 16% to 17% previously estimated.

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. 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 better presents 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 Net Income and Adjusted Earnings per common share.

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.

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.
