Insights

The reported 36% year-over-year growth in full-year revenue to $235.5 million by Nayax Ltd. indicates a robust expansion trajectory, which is particularly noteworthy in the context of a competitive payments and loyalty platform industry. The increase in gross margin from 34.6% to 37.5% suggests effective cost management and an enhanced profitability profile, possibly attributed to improved hardware margins. An operating loss reduction and a positive full-year cash flow from operations underscore operational efficiency and financial health. However, an operating loss of $12.4 million, despite being a reduction from the previous year, still raises questions about the company's path to profitability.

Investors should consider the forward-looking revenue guidance of $325-335 million for 2024, which forecasts a continued aggressive growth rate of over 38%. This projection, along with an anticipated adjusted EBITDA of $30-35 million, could signal confidence in the company's strategic direction and operational leverage. The high dollar-based net retention rate of 144% reflects strong customer satisfaction and hints at a sustainable recurring revenue model, which is critical for long-term valuation. However, the lack of IFRS net income reconciliation due to 'inherent difficulty in forecasting' could be a red flag for investors seeking full financial transparency.

Nayax's focus on scaling its core automated self-service platform and geographic expansion aligns with broader industry trends towards automation and global digital payment solutions. The milestone of 1,000,000 managed and connected devices showcases the company's ability to scale operationally. The acquisition of Retail Pro International, which is expected to triple the distributor network, presents potential for cross-selling opportunities and market penetration. However, the integration of such acquisitions also carries execution risk that could affect future performance.

Another key highlight is the company's strategic initiative to offer leasing options for IoT POS, which could enhance market penetration by lowering upfront costs for customers. This strategy, coupled with the growing SaaS revenue and payment processing fees, could be a significant driver for the projected 35% CAGR on revenue. Yet, investors should be mindful of the competitive landscape and the potential for market saturation in the payments space, which could affect long-term growth prospects.

The grant of a license for Nayax Financial services (NFS) from the UK FCA represents compliance with stringent financial regulations, which is a critical aspect for companies operating within the financial services sector. This regulatory approval not only enhances the company's credibility but also allows for the expansion of services within the UK market. However, the regulatory environment is dynamic and ongoing compliance will be essential to maintain operational status and avoid potential legal challenges that could impact financial performance.

Investors should note the regulatory considerations associated with the financial outlook provided by Nayax, which constitutes forward-looking information. The lack of IFRS net income reconciliation due to 'inherent difficulty in forecasting' may also have legal implications regarding the transparency and reliability of financial disclosures. While forward-looking statements are common in the industry, they are subject to uncertainties and should be evaluated with caution.

HERZLIYA, Israel, Feb. 28, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Nayax Ltd. (Nasdaq: NYAX, TASE: NYAX), a global commerce payments and loyalty platform designed to help merchants scale their business, today announced its financial results for the fourth quarter and full year 2023.

Management Commentary

“2023 was a fantastic year for Nayax from both a strategic and financial perspective. The inherent operating leverage in our business model continues to be a key driver of our improving margins, as we progress towards our long-term 2028 target of 50% gross margins and 30% adjusted EBITDA margin,” commented Yair Nechmad, Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board.

“2023 also marked a big milestone for Nayax in which we crossed 1,000,000 managed and connected devices. Over the course of the year, we expanded our offering, advanced our level of automation in the company, and significantly improved our operational efficiency. Looking ahead, we see strong tailwinds as we continue to build on our core automated self-service platform and expand to other geographies.”

Sagit Manor, Chief Financial Officer added, “We ended 2023 with very strong fourth quarter results and we are set up very well for 2024, showcasing the strength and scalability of our business model. Recurring revenue grew by 44% year over year, making up 64% of our total 2023 revenue. Our dollar-based net retention rate remains healthy at 144%, which reflects strong customer satisfaction and loyalty for our comprehensive solutions.”

(1) The Company does not provide a reconciliation of forward-looking adjusted EBITDA to IFRS net income (loss) due to the inherent difficulty in forecasting and quantifying certain amounts that are necessary for such reconciliation, in particular, because special items such as finance expenses and Issuance and acquisition costs used to calculate projected net income (loss) vary dramatically based on actual events.  Therefore, the Company is not able to forecast on an IFRS basis with reasonable certainty all deductions needed in order to provide an IFRS calculation of projected net income (loss) at this time. The amount of these deductions may be material, and therefore could result in projected IFRS net income (loss) being materially less than projected adjusted EBITDA (non-IFRS).

Forward-looking statements are based on our management’s beliefs and assumptions and on information currently available to our management. Such statements are subject to risks and uncertainties, and actual results may differ materially from those expressed or implied in the forward-looking statements due to of various factors, including, but not limited to: our expectations regarding general market conditions, including as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic and other global economic trends; changes in consumer tastes and preferences; fluctuations in inflation, interest rate and exchange rates in the global economic environment over the world; the availability of qualified personnel and the ability to retain such personnel; changes in commodity costs, labor, distribution and other operating costs; our ability to implement our growth strategy; changes in government regulation and tax matters; other factors that may affect our financial condition, liquidity and results of operations; general economic, political, demographic and business conditions in Israel, including ongoing military conflicts in the region; the success of operating initiatives, including advertising and promotional efforts and new product and concept development by us and our competitors; factors relating to the acquisition of Retail Pro International, including but not limited to the financing for and payment of the acquisition and our ability to effectively and efficiently integrate the acquired business into our existing business; and other risk factors discussed under “Risk Factors” in our annual report on Form 20-F filed with the SEC on Feb 28, 2024 (our "Annual Report"). The preceding list is not intended to be an exhaustive list of all of our forward-looking statements. The forward-looking statements are based on our beliefs, assumptions, and expectations of future performance, taking into account the information currently available to us. These statements are only estimates based upon our current expectations and projections about future events. There are important factors that could cause our actual results, levels of activity, performance, or achievements to differ materially from the results, levels of activity, performance or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. In particular, you should consider the risks provided under “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report. You should not rely upon forward-looking statements as predictions of future events.

Except as required by law, we undertake no obligation to update publicly any forward-looking statements for any reason, to conform these statements to actual results or to changes in our expectations.

Use of Non-IFRS Financial Information

In addition to various operational metrics and financial measures in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted under International Financial Reporting Standards, or IFRS, this press release contains Adjusted EBITDA, a non-IFRS financial measure, as a measure to evaluate our past results and future prospects.

Adjusted EBITDA

Adjusted EBITDA is a non-IFRS financial measure that we define as loss for the period plus finance expenses, tax expense, depreciation and amortization, share-based compensation costs, non-recurring issuance and acquisition related costs and our share in losses of associates accounted for by the equity method.

We present Adjusted EBITDA in this press release because it is a measure that our management and board of directors utilize as a measure to evaluate our operating performance and for internal planning and forecasting purposes. Accordingly, we believe that Adjusted EBITDA provides useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating our operating results in the same manner as our management and board of directors.

We believe that Adjusted EBITDA, when taken collectively with financial measures prepared in accordance with IFRS, may be helpful to investors because it provides an additional tool for investors to use in evaluating our ongoing operating results and trends and in comparing our financial results with other companies because it provides consistency and comparability with past financial performance. However, our management does not consider this non-IFRS measure in isolation or as an alternative to financial measures determined in accordance with IFRS.

Adjusted EBITDA is presented for supplemental informational purposes only, has limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for financial information presented in accordance with IFRS. Adjusted EBITDA may be different from similarly titled measures used by other companies. The principal limitation of Adjusted EBITDA is that it excludes significant expenses that are required by IFRS to be recorded in our financial statements, as further detailed above. In addition, it is subject to inherent limitations as it reflects the exercise of judgment by management about which expenses are excluded or included in determining Adjusted EBITDA.

A reconciliation is provided at the end of this press release for Adjusted EBITDA to net loss, the most directly comparable financial measure prepared in accordance with IFRS. Investors are encouraged to review net loss and the reconciliation to Adjusted EBITDA included below and to not rely on any single financial measure to evaluate our business.

Constant Currency

Nayax presents constant currency information to provide a framework for assessing how our underlying businesses performed excluding the effect of foreign currency rate fluctuations. Future expected results for transactions in currencies other than United States dollars are converted into United States dollars using the exchange rates in effect in the last month of the reporting period. Nayax provides this financial information to aid investors in better understanding our performance. These constant currency financial measures presented in this release should not be considered as a substitute for, or superior to, the measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with IFRS.

The Company cannot provide expected 2024 net income without unreasonable effort because certain items that impact net income are out of the Company's control and/or cannot be reasonably predicted at this time, which unavailable information could have a significant impact on the Company’s IFRS financial results.
