Insights
RYVYL's Q4 and full-year 2024 results present a mixed financial picture with important strategic developments. The company posted $56.0 million in 2024 revenue (down from $65.9 million in 2023), but this masks a dramatic divergence between segments. International operations through RYVYL EU delivered $37.8 million, representing 124% growth year-over-year, while North American operations declined substantially.
Profitability metrics show improvement at the gross margin level, reaching 40.0% for 2024 (up from 39.0% in 2023), but operational profitability remains elusive with Adjusted EBITDA worsening to a $5.7 million loss (versus a $3.9 million loss in 2023). The $6.7 million goodwill impairment and $3.0 million intangible asset impairment in North America signal permanent value erosion in that segment.
The balance sheet restructuring completed in January 2025 reduced potential dilution by redeeming all Series B Convertible Preferred Stock (liquidation value: $53.1 million) and reducing convertible note principal from $18.3 million to $4.0 million. However, this was funded through a pre-funded asset sale agreement that puts RYVYL EU shares in escrow - the company must raise $16.5 million by April/May to prevent losing its growth engine.
The newly secured Payments-as-a-Service contracts represent significant potential, with nearly one million new customer accounts expected over the next year. With international processing volumes growing 38.7% to $1.3 billion in Q4, the company's 2025 guidance of $80-90 million in revenue seems achievable if funding is secured and execution is solid.

(NASDAQ: RVYL) ("RYVYL” or the "Company"), a leading innovator of payment transaction solutions leveraging electronic payment technology for the diverse international markets, reported its financial results for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2024.

Q4 2024 and Recent Highlights
During Q4 and recently, we:

- Expanded our global reach by launching Visa Direct services in more geographies, increasing our footprint to a total of 16 countries.
- Launched co-branded debit cards in the EU.

Balance Sheet Restructuring
We completed key steps in our strategy to improve our capital structure, greatly reducing potential dilution and positioning us for profitable growth supported by increased financial flexibility.
In January 2025, we:
- Executed a Preferred Stock Repurchase and Note Repayment Agreement and paid the initial tranche of
$13.0 million to a securityholder that:- Redeemed of all shares of the Company’s Series B Convertible Preferred Stock for which the liquidation value was
$53.1 million ; and - Partially repaid an
8% Senior Convertible Note, reducing the outstanding principal from$18.3 million to$4.0 million , which is due on or before April 30, 2025.
- Redeemed of all shares of the Company’s Series B Convertible Preferred Stock for which the liquidation value was
- Entered into an agreement with a financing source for
$15.0 million to fund the Preferred Stock Repurchase and Note Repayment Agreement transaction that was structured as a pre-funded asset sale with a 90-day closing period, which ends on April 23, 2025 and may be extended an additional 30 days to May 23, 2025, if the Company pays$500,000 for such extension. Shares in the Company’s RYVYL EU subsidiary were placed in escrow during the closing period. Although there are no guarantees, the Company intends to terminate the asset sale within the closing period by paying$16.5 million in consideration of such termination.
We are pursuing a range of funding alternatives to raise capital to terminate the asset sale and anticipate completing this step in our financial strategy to further deleverage the balance sheet in Q2 2025. The Company has recently filed an S-1 registration statement to raise up to
Payments-as-a-Service (PaaS)

These partnerships are a strong endorsement of our ability to support fast-growing financial platforms and assist with their international growth. Our advanced payment technology enables quick and compliant onboarding, paired with the scalability today’s digital banks demand.
- The first contract is with a prominent global money service provider and includes the provision of both virtual and physical payment cards through RYVYL’s platform and mobile application. So far, 1,000 accounts have already been activated, and an additional 50,000 are expected to follow in 2025.
- The second agreement, with one of the world’s largest fully digital banks, is expected to add 900,000 new customer accounts within 12 months, beginning in Q2 2025. API integrations and system testing are already underway, with the onboarding phase set to launch in the near future.
“We are poised for a strong growth year in 2025, with multiple initiative underway to leverage our technology and well-established customer infrastructure and market reputation, and I look forward to updating you on our progress,” concluded Nisan.

38.7% to$1.3 billion , compared to$0.9 billion in the fourth quarter of 2023. International operations accounted for$1.1 billion of the fourth quarter volume, a significant increase from the$591 million volume in the fourth quarter of 2023, fueled by strong growth across multiple verticals, particularly through our Independent Sales Organizations (“ISO”) and partnership network, as well as expanded offerings in global payments processing and banking-as-a-service. In North America, processing volume totaled$176 million , down from$356 million in the fourth quarter of 2023. - Cost of Revenue: Cost of revenue was
$8.7 million in the fourth quarter of 2024, down from$14.5 million in the fourth quarter of 2023. This decrease was primarily due to reduced processing activity in North America, partially offset by higher processing volumes in the International segment. - Gross Margin: Gross margin for the fourth quarter of 2024 was
38.2% , up from35.0% in the fourth quarter of 2023, reflecting higher margin product mix. - Operating Expenses: Operating expenses for the fourth quarter of 2024 were
$11.4 million , compared to$10.6 million in the fourth quarter of 2023. This increase was primarily driven by a$3.0 million impairment charge in the fourth quarter of 2024 against intangible assets held in North America, partially offset by lower other operating expenses compared to the fourth quarter 2023. - Other Expense, net: Other expense, net, decreased
97% to$0.9 million in the fourth quarter of 2024, down from$27.0 million in the fourth quarter of 2023.

$1.7 million , compared to a positive$0.1 million in the fourth quarter of 2023.
Financial Summary Full Year Ended December 31, 2024
- Revenue: 2024 revenue was

$33.6 million , down$6.6 million , from$40.2 million during 2023, primarily due to reduced processing activity in North America, partially offset by higher processing volumes in the International segment. - Gross Margin: Gross margin was
40.0% , up from39.0% in 2023. - Operating Expenses: 2024 operating expenses were
$43.3 million compared to$38.0 million in 2023, due primarily to impairment charges recorded during 2024 of$6.7 million and$3.0 million for goodwill and intangible assets held in North America, respectively, with no comparable charges in 2023, partially offset by lower research and development expenses and professional fees. - Other Expense, net: Other expense, net, decreased to
$4.8 million in 2024, down from$40.5 million in 2023. This decrease was mainly driven by a$28.8 million net decrease in other expenses associated with the Company’s multiple restructurings of its convertible note during 2023 with no comparable restructurings during 2024. - Adjusted EBITDA: Adjusted EBITDA for 2024 was a loss of
$5.7 million , compared to a loss of$3.9 million in 2023. - Cash Balances: Cash and restricted cash as of December 31, 2024, was
$92.0 million , with$89.4 million being restricted cash.

These forward-looking statements are based on the Company's current beliefs, assumptions, and expectations regarding future events, which in turn are based on information currently available to the Company. Such forward-looking statements include statements regarding anticipated revenues and margins, timely payment of the second tranche, the benefit to stockholders from the repayment of the Note and repurchase of the Preferred Stock, and the timing and expectation of revenues from the license described herein and are charactered by future or conditional words such as "may," "will," "expect," "intend," "anticipate," "believe," "estimate" and "continue" or similar words. You should read statements that contain these words carefully because they discuss future expectations and plans, which contain projections of future results of operations or financial condition or state other forward-looking information.

A variety of factors could cause actual events and results to differ materially from those expressed in or contemplated by the forward-looking statements, including the risk that the licensee understands and complies with various banking laws and regulations that may impact the licensee's ability to process transactions. For example, federal money laundering statutes and Bank Secrecy Act regulations discourage financial institutions from working with operators of certain industries - particularly industries with heightened cash reporting obligations and restrictions - as a result of which, banks may refuse to process certain payments and/or require onerous reporting obligations by payment processors to avoid compliance risk.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information
Adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (“Adjusted EBITDA”) is a non-GAAP measure that represents our net loss before interest expense, amortization of debt discount, income tax expense, depreciation and amortization, changes in the fair value of derivative liabilities, losses on the extinguishment and derecognition expenses on the conversion of convertible debt, non-cash stock-based compensation expense, acquisition-related expense, non-recurring provisions for credit losses on legacy matters, accounting fees related to the restatement of prior period financial statements, non-recurring costs related to the spin-off of a subsidiary, and legal costs and settlement fees incurred in connection with non-ordinary course litigation and other disputes.
We exclude these items in calculating Adjusted EBITDA because we believe that the exclusion of these items will provide for more meaningful information about our financial performance, and do not consider the excluded items to be part of our ongoing results of operations. Our use of Adjusted EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool, and you should not consider it in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our financial results as reported under GAAP. Some of these limitations are: (a) although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized may have to be replaced in the future, and Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect cash capital expenditure requirements for such replacements or for new capital expenditure requirements; (b) Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs; (c) Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect the potentially dilutive impact of equity-based compensation; (d) Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect tax payments that may represent a reduction in cash available to us; and (e) other companies, including companies in our industry, may calculate Adjusted EBITDA or similarly titled measures differently, which reduces its usefulness as a comparative measure.
Because of these and other limitations, you should consider Adjusted EBITDA alongside our other GAAP-based financial performance measures, net income (loss) and our other GAAP financial results. The following table presents a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA from net loss, the most directly comparable GAAP measure, for the periods indicated:
