Financial Analyst

Priority Technology Holdings' Q2 2024 results demonstrate strong financial performance across key metrics. Revenue grew 20.6% year-over-year to $219.9 million, while adjusted EBITDA increased 25.4% to $51.6 million. The company's adjusted gross profit margin expanded by 40 basis points to 37.2%, indicating improved operational efficiency.

The significant jump in operating income (73.4% increase) is particularly noteworthy, suggesting effective cost management and scalability of the business model. Priority's updated guidance for full-year 2024 remains robust, projecting continued double-digit growth across revenue, adjusted gross profit and adjusted EBITDA.

However, investors should note the substantial increase in interest expenses and a one-time debt extinguishment charge, which impacted net income. Despite strong operational performance, net income was only $994,000, compared to a loss in the previous year, highlighting the impact of financing costs on bottom-line results.

Market Research Analyst

Priority's Q2 results reflect the growing demand for unified commerce solutions in the payments industry. The company's ability to deliver integrated payments and banking services at scale appears to be resonating with customers, driving substantial revenue growth.

The diversification of revenue streams across segments is a positive sign, potentially reducing business risk. However, the market should closely monitor the sustainability of this growth rate and any potential impact from economic headwinds or increased competition in the fintech space.

Priority's guidance suggests confidence in maintaining momentum, but investors should be aware that the revised revenue forecast narrows the upper range slightly. This could indicate some caution regarding market conditions or competitive pressures in the latter half of the year. The company's focus on cash flow acceleration and working capital optimization for businesses aligns well with current market trends, potentially positioning Priority for continued growth.

Tech Expert

Priority's strong performance underscores the importance of technology-driven solutions in the payments sector. The company's unified commerce platform appears to be a key differentiator, enabling seamless integration of payments and banking services.

The significant revenue growth suggests that Priority's technology stack is scalable and adaptable to meet increasing demand. However, the tech landscape is rapidly evolving and continued investment in R&D will be important to maintain this competitive edge.

Investors should note the increase in depreciation and amortization of revenue-generating assets, which rose from $3.03 million to $3.94 million. This could indicate ongoing investments in technology infrastructure, which is essential for long-term growth but may impact short-term profitability. The company's ability to leverage its technology for cross-selling and upselling opportunities across its customer base will be critical for sustaining high growth rates in the future.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This communication includes certain non-GAAP financial measures that we regularly review to evaluate our business and trends, measure our performance, prepare financial projections, allocate resources, and make strategic decisions. We believe these non-GAAP measures help to illustrate the underlying financial and business trends relating to our results of operations and comparability between current and prior periods. We also use these non-GAAP measures to establish and monitor operational goals. However, these non-GAAP measures are not superior to or a substitute for prominent measurements calculated in accordance with GAAP. Rather, the non-GAAP measures are meant to be a complement to understanding measures prepared in accordance with GAAP.

Adjusted Gross Profit and Adjusted Gross Profit Margin

The Company's adjusted gross profit metric represents revenues less cost of revenue (excluding depreciation and amortization). Adjusted gross profit margin is adjusted gross profit divided by revenues. We review these non-GAAP measures to evaluate our underlying profit trends. The reconciliation of adjusted gross profit to its most comparable GAAP measure is provided below:

(in thousands)	Three Months Ended June 30,
	2024				2023
Revenues	$	219,867			$	182,290
Cost of revenue (excluding depreciation and amortization)		(138,118	)			(115,281	)
Adjusted gross profit	$	81,749			$	67,009
Adjusted gross profit margin		37.2	%			36.8	%
Depreciation and amortization of revenue generating assets		(3,941	)			(3,030	)
Gross profit	$	77,808			$	63,979
Gross profit margin		35.4	%			35.1	%

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA

EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA are performance measures. EBITDA is earnings before interest, income tax, and depreciation and amortization expenses ("EBITDA"). Adjusted EBITDA begins with EBITDA but further excludes certain non-cash costs, such as stock-based compensation and the write-off of the carrying value of investments or other assets, as well as debt extinguishment and modification expenses and other expenses and income items considered non-recurring, such as acquisition integration expenses, certain professional fees, and litigation settlements. We review the non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA measure to evaluate our business and trends, measure our performance, prepare financial projections, allocate resources, and make strategic decisions.

The reconciliation of adjusted EBITDA to its most comparable GAAP measure is provided below:

(in thousands)	Three Months Ended June 30,
	2024			2023
Net income (loss)	$	994		$	(612	)

Non-cash stock-based compensation		1,829			1,746

Further detail of certain of these adjustments, and where these items are recorded in our consolidated statements of operations, is provided below:

Other expenses, net		122			129
	$	636		$	1,859

Priority does not provide a reconciliation of forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures to their comparable GAAP financial measures because it could not do so without unreasonable effort due to the unavailability of the information needed to calculate reconciling items and due to the variability, complexity and limited visibility of the adjusting items that would be excluded from the non-GAAP financial measures in future periods. When planning, forecasting and analyzing future periods, the Company does so primarily on a non-GAAP basis without preparing a GAAP analysis as that would require estimates for various cash and non-cash reconciling items that would be difficult to predict with reasonable accuracy. For example, stock-based compensation expense would be difficult to estimate because it depends on the Company's future hiring and retention needs, as well as the future fair market value of the Company's common stock, all of which are difficult to predict and subject to constant change. As a result, the Company does not believe that a GAAP reconciliation would provide meaningful supplemental information about the Company's outlook.
