Insights

Global Payments' Q2 2024 results show solid performance with adjusted net revenue up 6% to $2.32 billion and adjusted EPS growing 12% to $2.93. The company's adjusted operating margin expanded by 40 basis points to 45.2%, indicating improved efficiency.

Key positives include new partnerships with Diamond Baseball Holdings and UK football clubs, demonstrating market expansion. However, management's mention of a "slightly more tempered economic environment" in H2 2024 suggests caution.

The reaffirmed 2024 outlook, projecting 6-7% revenue growth and 11-12% EPS growth, along with potential margin expansion, indicates confidence in sustained performance despite economic uncertainties. The $0.25 per share dividend maintains shareholder returns.

Global Payments' results reflect resilience in the payments industry amid economic headwinds. The company's focus on being the "worldwide partner of choice for commerce solutions" aligns with the growing demand for integrated payment technologies.

The new partnerships in sports and entertainment venues highlight a strategic move into high-volume transaction environments. This diversification could provide a buffer against potential slowdowns in other sectors.

The ongoing business review and emphasis on "simplifying business and streamlining operations" suggests potential cost-saving measures ahead. This proactive approach could enhance competitiveness in a challenging market, but investors should watch for any restructuring costs in upcoming quarters.

Global Payments' emphasis on point-of-sale solutions and product-led, customer-centric approaches indicates a strong focus on technological innovation. The partnership with Diamond Baseball Holdings for Minor League franchises presents an opportunity to showcase advanced commerce technologies in a high-visibility setting.

The company's strategy to use service as a key differentiator suggests investments in AI and machine learning for enhanced customer experiences. This could be important in maintaining a competitive edge in the rapidly evolving fintech landscape.

However, the mention of simplifying business operations raises questions about potential impacts on R&D spending. Investors should monitor how this balances with the need for continuous innovation in the payments tech sector.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Global Payments supplements revenues, operating income, operating margin and net income and earnings per share determined in accordance with GAAP by providing these measures with certain adjustments (such measures being non-GAAP financial measures) in this earnings release to assist with evaluating our performance. In addition to GAAP measures, management uses these non-GAAP financial measures to focus on the factors the company believes are pertinent to the daily management of our operations.

Global Payments also has provided supplemental non-GAAP information to reflect the divestiture of the consumer portion of our Netspend business, which comprised our former Consumer Solutions segment, which closed in April 2023. Management believes that providing such supplemental financial information should enhance shareholders’ ability to evaluate how the business will be managed going forward.

Reconciliations of each of the non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measure are included in the schedules to this release, except for forward-looking measures where a reconciliation to the corresponding GAAP measures is not available due to the variability, complexity and limited visibility of the items that are excluded from the non-GAAP outlook measures.

______________________________

(1)

Includes adjustments to revenues for gross-up related payments (included in operating expenses) associated with certain lines of business to reflect economic benefits to the company. For the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, net revenue adjustments also included $0.4 million and $0.5 million, respectively, to eliminate the effect of acquisition accounting fair value adjustments for software-related contract liabilities associated with acquired businesses. Adjustments for the three months ended June 30, 2023 also included a $5.2 million adjustment to exclude revenues that were associated with certain excluded expenses of our consumer business, which was divested in April 2023.

 

 

(2)

For the three months ended June 30, 2024, earnings adjustments to operating income included $345.9 million in cost of services (COS) and $131.3 million in selling, general and administrative expenses (SG&A). Adjustments to COS consisted of amortization of acquired intangibles of $345.9 million. Adjustments to SG&A included share-based compensation expense of $43.2 million, acquisition, integration and separation expenses of $55.7 million, employee severance charges of $10.1 million, and other items of $22.3 million.

 

 

 

For the three months ended June 30, 2023, earnings adjustments to operating income included $344.3 million in COS and $150.3 million in SG&A. Adjustments to COS included amortization of acquired intangibles of $344.4 million and other items of $(0.1) million. Adjustments to SG&A included share-based compensation expense of $47.1 million, acquisition, integration and separation expenses of $86.6 million, facilities exit charges of $3.6 million, employee severance charges of $11.2 million, and other items of $1.8 million. Earnings adjustments to operating income also included the $105.7 million gain on business dispositions.

 

 

 

Acquisition, integration and separation expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2023 included $19.4 million related to our divested consumer business. These incremental expenses, which include card and marketing expenses, compensation and benefit expenses, and other expenses, were incurred as a result of contractual obligations with the purchasers of the consumer business and do not reflect the manner in which the Company would have operated the business and would not have otherwise been incurred absent the transaction.

 

 

 

For the three months ended June 30, 2023, earnings adjustments to net income also included an allowance for current expected credit losses (CECL) of $18.2 million within interest and other expense related to the seller financing issued in connection with the business dispositions.

 

 

(3)

Income taxes on adjustments reflect the tax effect of earnings adjustments to income before income taxes. The tax rate used in determining the tax impact of earnings adjustments is either the jurisdictional statutory rate in effect at the time of the adjustment or the jurisdictional expected annual effective tax rate for the period, depending on the nature and timing of the adjustment. In addition, for the three months ended June 30, 2023, income taxes on adjustments include the removal of tax expense related to business dispositions.

For six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, net revenue adjustments also included $0.9 million and $1.1 million, respectively, to eliminate the effect of acquisition accounting fair value adjustments for software-related contract liabilities associated with acquired businesses. Adjustments for the six months ended June 30, 2023 also included a $19.7 million adjustment to exclude revenues that were associated with certain excluded expenses of our consumer business, which was divested in April 2023.

 

 

(2)

For the six months ended June 30, 2024, earnings adjustments to operating income included $689.2 million in COS and $285 million in SG&A. Adjustments to COS consisted of amortization of acquired intangibles of $689.2 million. Adjustments to SG&A included share-based compensation expense of $83.4 million, acquisition, integration and separation expenses of $134.6 million, employee severance charges of $34.9 million, and other items of $32.1 million.

 

 

 

For the six months ended June 30, 2023, earnings adjustments to operating income included $647.9 million in COS and $441.6 million in SG&A. Adjustments to COS included amortization of acquired intangibles of $645.7 million and other items of $2.2 million. Adjustments to SG&A included share-based compensation expense of $136.7 million, acquisition, integration and separation expenses of $261.3 million, facilities exit charges of $11.3 million, employee severance charges of $29.9 million, and other items of $2.4 million. Earnings adjustments to operating income also included the $139.1 million loss on business dispositions.

 

 

 

Acquisition, integration and separation expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2023 included $93.6 million related to our divested consumer business. These incremental expenses, which include card and marketing expenses, compensation and benefit expenses, and other expenses, were incurred as a result of contractual obligations with the purchasers of the consumer business and do not reflect the manner in which the Company would have operated the business and would not have otherwise been incurred absent the transaction.

 

 

 

For the six months ended June 30, 2023, earnings adjustments to net income also included an allowance for current expected credit losses (CECL) of $18.2 million within interest and other expense related to the seller financing issued in connection with the business dispositions.

 

 

(3)

Income taxes on adjustments reflect the tax effect of earnings adjustments to income before income taxes. The tax rate used in determining the tax impact of earnings adjustments is either the jurisdictional statutory rate in effect at the time of the adjustment or the jurisdictional expected annual effective tax rate for the period, depending on the nature and timing of the adjustment. In addition, for the three months ended June 30, 2023, income taxes on adjustments include the removal of tax expense related to business dispositions.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

Global Payments supplements revenues, operating income, operating margin and net income and earnings per share (EPS) determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP by providing these measures with certain adjustments (such measures being non-GAAP financial measures) in this document to assist with evaluating our performance. In addition to GAAP measures, management uses these non-GAAP financial measures to focus on the factors the company believes are pertinent to the daily management of our operations. The constant currency growth measures adjust for the impact of exchange rates and are calculated using average exchange rates during the comparable period in the prior year. Management believes adjusted net revenue more closely reflects the economic benefits to the company's core business and allows for better comparisons with industry peers. Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures, together with other metrics, to set goals for and measure the performance of the business and to determine incentive compensation.

Adjusted net revenue, adjusted operating income, adjusted operating margin, adjusted net income and adjusted EPS should be considered in addition to, and not as substitutes for, revenues, operating income, net income and earnings per share determined in accordance with GAAP. The non-GAAP financial measures reflect management's judgment of particular items, and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. Adjusted net revenue excludes gross-up related payments associated with certain lines of business to reflect economic benefits to the company. On a GAAP basis, these payments are presented gross in both revenues and operating expenses. Adjusted operating income, adjusted net income and adjusted EPS exclude acquisition-related amortization expense, share-based compensation expense, acquisition, integration and separation expense, gain or losses on business divestitures, and certain other items specific to each reporting period as more fully described in the accompanying reconciliations in Schedules 6 and 7. Adjusted operating margin is derived by dividing adjusted operating income by adjusted net revenue. The tax rate used in determining the income tax impact of earnings adjustments is either the jurisdictional statutory rate in effect at the time of the adjustment or the jurisdictional expected annual effective tax rate for the period, depending on the nature and timing of the adjustment.

The supplemental non-GAAP information excludes the results of the consumer business that was divested in April 2023. Management believes that providing such supplemental financial information should enhance shareholders’ ability to evaluate how the business will be managed going forward.
