The global modern card issuer had $54 billion in total processing volume, up 33 percent year-over-year, with net revenue of $231 million in the second quarter of 2023, up 24 percent year-over-year.

OAKLAND, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Marqeta, Inc. (NASDAQ: MQ), the global modern card issuing platform, today reported financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2023.

Total processing volume (TPV) was $54 billion, with net revenue of $231 million, representing year-over-year increases of 33% and 24%, respectively. Gross profit was $85 million, an increase of 8% year over year, resulting in a gross margin of 37%. GAAP net loss was $59 million and Adjusted EBITDA was $1 million.

"In the second quarter, we grew our business to ever-increasing levels of scale, exceeded our sales bookings goals again and reduced our cost structure. Our execution has been strong, including accelerating our go-to-market motion, enhancing our product offering, and extending our partnership with Cash App. I firmly believe Marqeta is well positioned to capitalize on the fast-growing embedded finance market," said Simon Khalaf, CEO of Marqeta.

Recent Business Updates:

Marqeta highlighted several recent business updates that demonstrate its current business momentum:

  • Marqeta announced today that it had signed a four year extension with Block to continue powering its popular Cash App card product. This extended deal to power the Cash Card is effective on July 1, 2023 and continues through June of 2027. We believe this renewal demonstrates the value Block sees in the Marqeta platform and this partnership, exemplified by Marqeta’s flexibility, innovation and breadth of service.
  • Marqeta announced a new expansion into Brazil with a partnership with Latin American banking-as-a-service platform Fitbank. Through this partnership, Fitbank will be both a Marqeta customer and act as Marqeta's BIN sponsor for customers looking to launch in the region. Brazil is a highly valued expansion point for many of Marqeta’s global customers and has a base of local fintechs looking to build new innovations on modern payment infrastructure.

Second Quarter 2023 Financial Results:

Net revenue increased by $44 million, or 24% year-over-year, rising to $231 million from $187 million in the second quarter of 2022 resulting from a 33% increase in TPV year-over-year, partially offset by unfavorable changes in the mix of our card programs.

Gross profit increased by 8% year-over-year, rising to $85 million from $78 million in the second quarter of 2022 primarily due to our TPV growth. Gross margin was 37% in the second quarter of 2023.

Net loss increased by $14 million to $59 million in the quarter. Our increase in gross profit was partially offset by increases in compensation & benefits primarily due to restructuring charges and postcombination compensation benefits related to the acquisition of Power Finance. Net loss margin was 25% in the second quarter of 2023.

Total Processing Volume increased by 33% year-over-year, rising to $54 billion from $40 billion in the second quarter of 2022.

Adjusted EBITDA increased by $11 million year-over year, rising to $1 million, in the second quarter of 2023 from an Adjusted EBITDA loss of $10 million in the comparable prior year period. Adjusted EBITDA margin was 0.4% in the second quarter of 2023, an increase of 5 percentage points year-over-year.

Marqeta, Inc.
Reconciliation of GAAP to NON-GAAP Measures
(in thousands)
(unaudited)

Information Regarding Non-GAAP Measures

In addition to the financial measures prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”), this press release contains certain non-GAAP financial measures. Marqeta considers Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, and Non-GAAP operating expenses as supplemental measures of the company’s performance that are not required by, nor presented in accordance with GAAP.

We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) adjusted to exclude depreciation and amortization; share-based compensation expense; payroll tax related to share-based compensation; restructuring charges; acquisition-related expenses which consist of due diligence costs, transaction costs and integration costs related to potential or successful acquisitions, and non-cash postcombination compensation expenses; income tax expense (benefit); and other income (expense), net, which consists of interest income from our short-term investments, realized foreign currency gains and losses, our share of equity method investments’ profit or loss, impairment of equity method investments or other financial instruments, and gain from sale of equity method investments. We believe that Adjusted EBITDA is an important measure of operating performance because it allows management and our board of directors to evaluate and compare our core operating results, including our operating efficiencies, from period to period. Additionally, we utilize Adjusted EBITDA as an input into our calculation of our annual employee bonus plans.

Adjusted EBITDA Margin is calculated as Adjusted EBITDA divided by net revenue. This measure is used by management and our board of directors to evaluate our operating efficiency.

We define Non-GAAP operating expenses as total operating expenses adjusted to exclude depreciation and amortization; share-based compensation expense; payroll tax related to share-based compensation; restructuring charges; and acquisition-related expenses which consists of due diligence costs, transaction costs and integration costs related to potential or successful acquisitions, and non-cash postcombination compensation expenses.

Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, and Non-GAAP operating expenses should not be considered in isolation, or construed as an alternative to net loss, or any other performance measures derived in accordance with GAAP, or as an alternative to cash flow from operating activities or as a measure of the company's liquidity. In addition, other companies may calculate Adjusted EBITDA differently than Marqeta does, which limits its usefulness in comparing Marqeta’s financial results with those of other companies.

The following table shows Marqeta's GAAP results reconciled to non-GAAP results included in this release:

_______________

(1) Acquisition-related expenses, which include transaction costs, integration costs and non-cash postcombination compensation expense, have been excluded from Adjusted EBITDA as such expenses are not reflective of our ongoing core operations and are not representative of the ongoing costs necessary to operate our business; instead, these are costs specifically associated with a discrete transaction.
