Global Payments Reports <br>Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2023 Results

February 14, 2024

•Fourth quarter 2023 GAAP diluted earnings per share (EPS) of $1.38 and adjusted EPS of $2.65

•Fourth quarter 2023 GAAP revenue of $2.43 billion and adjusted net revenue of $2.19 billion, both an increase of 8%

•Expects to Launch Commerzbank Joint Venture in First Half of 2024

•Renews Agreements with Capital One Financial and Navy Federal Credit Union

ATLANTA -- Global Payments Inc. (NYSE: GPN) today announced results for the fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2023.

"We are pleased with our results for the fourth quarter and full year 2023 that were ahead of our initial expectations outlined last February,” said Cameron Bready, President and Chief Executive Officer. "Importantly, we saw consistent business performance throughout the year despite ongoing uncertainties, highlighting the durability and resiliency of our business model.”

Bready continued, “We also accomplished a great deal strategically last year, including successfully closing our acquisition of EVO Payments in March, providing further penetration into integrated payments, enhancing our B2B capabilities and expanding our exposure to stronger secular growth markets. Further, we completed the exit of our Netspend Consumer and Gaming Solutions businesses. These transactions represent important milestones as we seek to advance our strategy and operate a simpler business model centered on our core corporate and financial institution customer base.”

Bready concluded, “And we are already off to a great start in 2024. Our recently announced joint venture with Commerzbank will meaningfully expand our presence in Germany. This partnership allows us to deliver a comprehensive suite of innovative payment and commerce enablement solutions to merchants in the German market, capitalizing on the digitization trends in the largest economy in Europe. We are also pleased to announce we executed multi-year renewal agreements with two of our flagship Issuer Solutions clients, Capital One and Navy Federal.”

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Global Payments supplements revenues, operating income, operating margin and net income and earnings per share determined in accordance with GAAP by providing these measures with certain adjustments (such measures being non-GAAP financial measures) in this earnings release to assist with evaluating our performance. In addition to GAAP measures, management uses these non-GAAP financial measures to focus on the factors the company believes are pertinent to the daily management of our operations. The constant currency growth measures adjust for the impact of exchange rates and are calculated using average exchange rates during the comparable period in the prior year.

Global Payments also has provided supplemental non-GAAP information to reflect the divestiture of the consumer portion of our Netspend business, which comprised our former Consumer Solutions segment, which closed in April 2023. Management believes that providing such supplemental financial information should enhance shareholders’ ability to evaluate how the business will be managed going forward.

Reconciliations of each of the non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measure are included in the schedules to this release, except for forward-looking measures where a reconciliation to the corresponding GAAP measures is not available due to the variability, complexity and limited visibility of the items that are excluded from the non-GAAP outlook measures.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

Global Payments supplements revenues, operating income, operating margin and net income and earnings per share (EPS) determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP by providing these measures with certain adjustments (such measures being non-GAAP financial measures) in this document to assist with evaluating our performance. In addition to GAAP measures, management uses these non-GAAP financial measures to focus on the factors the company believes are pertinent to the daily management of our operations. The constant currency growth measures adjust for the impact of exchange rates and are calculated using average exchange rates during the comparable period in the prior year. Management believes adjusted net revenue more closely reflects the economic benefits to the company's core business and allows for better comparisons with industry peers. Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures, together with other metrics, to set goals for and measure the performance of the business and to determine incentive compensation.

Adjusted net revenue, adjusted operating income, adjusted operating margin, adjusted net income and adjusted EPS should be considered in addition to, and not as substitutes for, revenues, operating income, net income and earnings per share determined in accordance with GAAP. The non-GAAP financial measures reflect management's judgment of particular items, and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. Adjusted net revenue excludes gross-up related payments associated with certain lines of business to reflect economic benefits to the company. On a GAAP basis, these payments are presented gross in both revenues and operating expenses. Adjusted operating income, adjusted net income and adjusted EPS exclude acquisition-related amortization expense, share-based compensation expense, acquisition, integration and separation expense, gain or losses on business divestitures, and certain other items specific to each reporting period as more fully described in the accompanying reconciliations in Schedules 6 and 7. Adjusted operating margin is derived by dividing adjusted operating income by adjusted net revenue. The tax rate used in determining the income tax impact of earnings adjustments is either the jurisdictional statutory rate in effect at the time of the adjustment or the jurisdictional expected annual effective tax rate for the period, depending on the nature and timing of the adjustment.

The supplemental non-GAAP information excludes the results of the consumer business that was divested in April 2023. Management believes that providing such supplemental financial information should enhance shareholders’ ability to evaluate how the business will be managed going forward.
