Company Updates 2023 Outlook

LITTLETON, Colo.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- CPI Card Group Inc. (Nasdaq: PMTS) (“CPI” or the “Company”), a payment technology company and leading provider of credit, debit, and prepaid solutions, today reported financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2023 and updated its financial outlook for 2023.

Second quarter net sales increased 1% to $115 million, as strong growth from the Prepaid Debit segment was largely offset by a slight decline in the Debit and Credit segment. Net sales also benefited from the impact of price increases, which were primarily implemented in 2022. Net income increased 6% to $6.5 million and Adjusted EBITDA increased 18% to $23.3 million, driven by reduced operating expenses.

“I am pleased with our team’s ability to offset customer demand softness in parts of the market and challenging comparisons with last year’s second quarter to generate a solid increase in profitability,” said Scott Scheirman, President and Chief Executive Officer. “Although we have adjusted our sales outlook to reflect the near-term challenges, we are continuing to drive various initiatives to help achieve our profitability and cash flow targets for the year.”

The Company updated its full-year net sales outlook for 2023 to a range of flat to low single-digit growth and affirmed its outlook for mid-to-high single-digit Adjusted EBITDA growth, as well as its projections for Free Cash Flow to more than double and the year-end Net Leverage Ratio to improve to between 2.5x and 3.0x. The previous outlook for net sales was mid-single digit growth.

The sales outlook change reflects softness in customer demand in the Debit and Credit segment. The Company believes Debit and Credit segment sales are being negatively impacted by cautious spending and utilization of existing inventory by certain customers in the banking industry. The Company currently expects third quarter sales and Adjusted EBITDA to decline and expects to return to growth in the fourth quarter, as the market starts to improve and the impact of new sales initiatives takes hold.

Scheirman added, “We remain confident in the long-term secular trends for the U.S. market, supported by the reoccurring nature of the business, ongoing strong card issuance, and continued adoption of contactless and eco-focused cards. Our portfolio of innovative and high-quality end-to-end payment solutions and our strong customer service position us well to continue to gain share and grow the business.”

Based on figures released by the networks, Visa and Mastercard® U.S. debit and credit cards in circulation increased at a compound annual growth rate of 10% for the three-year period ending March 31, 2023.

CPI is a top payment solutions provider in the U.S. serving thousands of banks, credit unions and fintechs. The Company is a leader in the U.S. markets for eco-focused payment cards, personalization and Software-as-a-Service-based instant issuance solutions for small and medium U.S. financial institutions and retail prepaid debit card solutions, and maintains longstanding customer relationships.

2023 Business Highlights

  • A leading provider of eco-focused payment card solutions in the U.S. market, with approximately 100 million eco-focused cards since launch in late 2019.
  • A leading provider of Software-as-a-Service-based instant issuance solutions in the U.S., with nearly 15,000 Card@Once® installations across more than 2,000 financial institutions.
  • Financial position improvement, with the outstanding balance on the Company’s 8.625% Senior Secured Notes reduced by $15 million in the first half of the year through open market repurchases and a Net Leverage Ratio of 2.8x at June 30, 2023.

Second Quarter 2023 Financial Highlights

Net sales increased 1% year-over-year to $115 million in the second quarter of 2023.

  • Debit and Credit segment net sales decreased 1% to $93.2 million due to a decline in eco-focused contactless card sales, partially offset by increases from other contactless cards, contact cards, services related to card personalization and Card@Once® instant issuance solutions, and non-EMV® cards. Net sales benefited from the impact of price increases, which were primarily implemented in 2022. The decline in eco-focused card sales reflects comparisons with large orders in the second quarter of 2022, which contributed to a 29% increase in segment sales in the prior year period.
  • Prepaid Debit segment net sales increased 14% to $21.8 million, driven by growth with existing customers.

Second quarter gross profit increased 1% to $40.8 million and gross profit margin was 35.5%, which compared to 35.8% in the prior year second quarter.

Second quarter income from operations increased 16% to $17.5 million; net income increased 6% to $6.5 million, or $0.55 diluted earnings per share; and Adjusted EBITDA increased 18% to $23.3 million. Income from operations and Adjusted EBITDA growth were driven by reduced operating expenses. Net income growth was also impacted by a higher effective tax rate compared to prior year, partially offset by lower interest expense.

First Half 2023 Financial Highlights

Net sales increased 5% year-over-year to $235.8 million in the first half of 2023.

  • Debit and Credit segment net sales increased 5% to $195.2 million, driven by higher sales of contactless cards, services related to personalization and Card@Once® instant issuance solutions, and non-EMV® cards. Net sales benefited from the impact of pricing increases, which were primarily implemented in 2022.
  • Prepaid Debit segment net sales increased 6% to $41 million, driven by growth with existing customers.

First half gross profit increased 5% to $83.9 million and gross profit margin was 35.6%, which compared to 35.5% in the prior year.

First half income from operations increased 15% to $38.1 million; net income increased 43% to $17.4 million, or $1.46 diluted earnings per share; and Adjusted EBITDA increased 15% to $48.4 million. Income from operations and Adjusted EBITDA growth was driven by higher net sales and lower operating expenses, while net income growth also benefited from lower interest expense and a lower effective tax rate.

Balance Sheet, Liquidity and Cash Flow

The Company generated cash flow from operating activities of $10.3 million in the first half of the year, which compared to a usage of $8.1 million in the prior year period, and Free Cash Flow of $3.7 million, which compared to a usage of $16.3 million in the first half of 2022. The increase in cash generation compared to the prior year was driven by significant working capital improvement and strong net income growth.

As of June 30, 2023, cash and cash equivalents was $11.2 million. There were $270 million of 8.625% Senior Secured Notes due 2026 and $18 million of borrowings from the ABL revolving credit facility outstanding at quarter-end. The Company retired $15 million of notes during the first half, utilizing cash balances and revolving credit facility proceeds.

The Company’s capital structure and allocation priorities are to maintain ample liquidity; invest in the business, including strategic acquisitions; deleverage the balance sheet; and return funds to stockholders.

“Our focus on operating expenses helped us generate strong profitability and cash flow generation in the first half of the year,” said Jeff Hochstadt, Chief Financial Officer of CPI. “In addition, we enhanced our financial position by improving net leverage and reducing interest expense through the ongoing retirement of senior notes.”

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to financial results reported in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), we have provided the following non-GAAP financial measures in this release, all reported on a continuing operations basis: EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, Free Cash Flow, LTM Adjusted EBITDA and Net Leverage Ratio. These non-GAAP financial measures are utilized by management in comparing our operating performance on a consistent basis between fiscal periods. We believe that these financial measures are appropriate to enhance an overall understanding of our underlying operating performance trends compared to historical and prospective periods and our peers. Management also believes that these measures are useful to investors in their analysis of our results of operations and provide improved comparability between fiscal periods. Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial information calculated in accordance with GAAP. Our non-GAAP measures may be different from similarly titled measures of other companies. Investors are encouraged to review the reconciliation of these historical non-GAAP measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures included in Exhibit E to this press release.

Adjusted EBITDA

Adjusted EBITDA is presented on a continuing operations basis and is defined as EBITDA (which represents earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization) adjusted for litigation; stock-based compensation expense; estimated sales tax expense; restructuring and other charges, including severance and executive retention; loss on debt extinguishment; foreign currency gain or loss; and other items that are unusual in nature, infrequently occurring or not considered part of our core operations, as set forth in the reconciliation in Exhibit E. Adjusted EBITDA is intended to show our unleveraged, pre-tax operating results and therefore reflects our financial performance based on operational factors, excluding non-operational, unusual or non-recurring losses or gains. Adjusted EBITDA has important limitations as an analytical tool, and you should not consider it in isolation, or as a substitute for, analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. For example, Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect: (a) our capital expenditures, future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments; (b) changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs; (c) the significant interest expenses or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments on our debt; (d) tax payments that represent a reduction in cash available to us; (e) any cash requirements for the assets being depreciated and amortized that may have to be replaced in the future; (f) the impact of earnings or charges resulting from matters that we and the lenders under our credit agreement may not consider indicative of our ongoing operations; or (g) the impact of any discontinued operations. In particular, our definition of Adjusted EBITDA allows us to add back certain non-operating, unusual or non-recurring charges that are deducted in calculating net income, even though these are expenses that may recur, vary greatly and are difficult to predict and can represent the effect of long-term strategies as opposed to short-term results. In addition, certain of these expenses represent the reduction of cash that could be used for other purposes. Adjusted EBITDA margin percentage as shown in Exhibit E is computed as Adjusted EBITDA divided by total net sales.

We define LTM Adjusted EBITDA as Adjusted EBITDA (defined previously) for the last twelve months. LTM Adjusted EBITDA is used in the computation of Net Leverage Ratio, and is reconciled in Exhibit E.

Free Cash Flow

We define Free Cash Flow as cash flow provided by (used in) operating activities less capital expenditures. We use this metric in analyzing our ability to service and repay our debt. However, this measure does not represent funds available for investment or other discretionary uses since it does not deduct cash used to service our debt. Free Cash Flow should not be considered in isolation, or as a substitute for, cash (used in) provided by operating activities or any other measures of liquidity derived in accordance with GAAP.

Financial Expectations for 2023

We have provided Adjusted EBITDA expectations for 2023 on a non-GAAP basis because certain reconciling items are dependent on future events that either cannot be controlled or cannot be reliably predicted because they are not part of the Company’s routine activities, any of which could be significant.

Net Leverage Ratio

Management and various investors use the ratio of debt principal outstanding, plus finance lease obligations, less cash, divided by LTM Adjusted EBITDA, or “Net Leverage Ratio”, as a measure of our financial strength when making key investment decisions and evaluating us against peers.
