“2025 was a standout year for Paysign, delivering record top- and bottom-line results,” commented Mark Newcomer, President and CEO of Paysign. “We delivered continued, steady growth in our plasma compensation business and our differentiated solution for patient affordability enabled growth of more than 167%. We continued to scale our patient affordability platform, adding 55 net patient affordability programs during 2025, validating our focus on this business line and demonstrating our ability to generate a positive return on investment for pharmaceutical customers while improving patient access to copay funds. Patient affordability has become a primary driver of both growth and profitability. Demand for our differentiated solutions is strong and growing, reflecting the value of our technology, service model and real-time claims capabilities.”
“As patient affordability continues to represent a larger portion of our business, the benefits of a more favorable revenue mix, with higher margins and increased operating leverage, are translating to the bottom line,” Newcomer added. “We believe we remain in the early stages of this opportunity and are well positioned to continue expanding our presence in the life sciences ecosystem.”
2025 Full-Year Results
Total revenues increased 40.5%, or $23.64 million to $82.02 million from $58.38 million in 2024. Pharma industry revenue increased 167.8% to $33.89 million from $12.65 million due to the financial benefit of 55 net pharma patient affordability programs launched during the past 12 months, and a corresponding increase in monthly management fees, setup fees, claim processing fees and other billable services such as dynamic business rules and customer service contact center support. Processed claims increased by over 79% compared to 2024. Plasma revenue increased 4.0% to $45.62 million from $43.88 million, primarily due to the addition of 115 net plasma centers added during the past 12 months, offset by a decline in average plasma donations per center as plasma inventory levels were elevated throughout much of 2025. This led to a reduction in our average monthly revenue per center as compared to the same period in the prior year. We exited the year with 595 centers versus 480 centers at the end of 2024. Other revenue increased by $671 thousand, or 36.2%, primarily due to the growth and usage in the number of cardholders of our payroll, retail and corporate incentive programs.
| 2 |
| --- |
Cost of revenues increased 27.2% due to increased call center support expense associated primarily with the growth in our plasma and pharma businesses, a new customer service contact center that went live in November, wage inflation pressures, a tight labor market and increased benefit costs, as well as due to increased sales and commission expense, higher network and network related fees and increased third-party variable costs. Gross profit was 59.4% compared to 55.1% in 2024.
Total operating expenses were $41.35 million compared to $31.18 million in 2024, an increase of 32.6%. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by 31.2%. Depreciation and amortization increased by $2.32 million, or 38.8%, due mainly to the continued capitalization of new software development costs, equipment purchases related to the enhancement to our processing platform and the amortization of intangible assets from our Gamma acquisition. Other income decreased by $446 thousand primarily related to the implied interest expense related to future cash payments for the Gamma acquisition of $395 thousand and lower interest rates, offset by higher average restricted bank account balances from our plasma and pharma customers. Operating margin was 9.0% compared to 1.7% in 2024.
Income tax expense was $2.48 million, resulting in an effective tax rate of 24.7%, due to improved net operating income and adjustments to our provision estimate related to Section 174 changes under the One Big Beautiful Bill Act, offset by tax benefits associated with stock-based compensation and tax credits. This was an increase of $2.16 million over 2024.
Net income was $7.55 million, or $0.13 per diluted share, an increase of 97.9% compared to net income of $3.82 million, or $0.07 per diluted share, last year. “EBITDA,” defined as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization expense, which is a non-GAAP metric, increased by $8.67 million or 123.5%, to $15.68 million, and “Adjusted EBITDA,” which excludes stock-based compensation expense from EBITDA, and which is a non-GAAP metric used by management to gauge the operating performance of the business, increased by $10.32 million, or 107.3%, to $19.94 million, or $0.33 per diluted share.

Balance Sheet at December 31, 2025
The company’s cash flows increased $42.64 million from December 31, 2024, largely related to the improvement in our operating results, growth of existing customer programs and the launch of new customer programs.
Unrestricted cash increased $10.30 million to $21.07 million from December 31, 2024. The increase resulted primarily from improvement in our operating results.
Restricted cash increased $32.34 million to $143.92 million from December 31, 2024, primarily related to customer program deposits for our plasma and pharma customers of $26.92 million and an increase in funds on card of $5.42 million.

2026 Outlook
“Paysign enters 2026 in the strongest position in its history,” said Jeff Baker, Paysign CFO. “With strong revenue growth and improving operating leverage, we are positioned for continued success.”
“For 2026, we expect revenue of $106.5 million to $110.5 million, representing 30.0% to 35.0% year-over-year growth, with plasma and pharma contributing equally and other revenue contributing $2.5 million. Considering the seasonality in both our main healthcare businesses, we expect plasma revenues to be the lowest in the first quarter as donors reduce donation frequency following the receipt of tax refunds going out and ramp up throughout the remainder of the year. We expect pharma revenues to be the highest in the first quarter and decline throughout the remainder of the year as patient affordability claims ramp down.
Gross profit margins are expected to be between 60.0% to 62.0%, reflecting increased revenue contribution from our pharma patient affordability business. Operating expenses are expected to increase 20% over 2025 as we continue to make investments in people and technology. Of this amount, depreciation and amortization expense is expected to be between $9.5 million and $10.0 million, while stock-based compensation is expected to be approximately $5.5 million. Given our large unrestricted and restricted cash balances and the current interest rate environment, we expect to generate interest income of approximately $3.1 million. Our full-year tax rate is estimated to be between 22.5% and 25.0%. Net income is estimated to nearly double over 2025, reaching a range of $13.0 million to $16.0 million, or $0.21 to $0.26 per diluted share, and adjusted EBITDA to be in the range of $30.0 million to $33.0 million, or $0.49 to $0.53 per diluted share. The number of fully diluted shares outstanding for the year is estimated to be 62.3 million.
For the first quarter of 2026, we expect revenue of $27.0 to $27.5 million, representing a 45.2% to 47.8% growth over first quarter 2025 (“1Q25”) and expect to have 137 active patient affordability programs and 589 plasma centers exiting the quarter. Margins are expected to expand across the income statement versus 1Q25 equating to an operating margin between 20.0% to 22.0%, net margin between 17.0% to 19.0%, and adjusted EBITDA margin between 34.5% to 36.5%. Fully diluted earnings per share is estimated to be $0.07 to $0.08 while adjusted EBITDA per share is estimated to be $0.15 to $0.16,” Baker concluded.^2^
^^
^2^ The Company is unable to provide a reconciliationof forward-looking adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA per diluted share and adjusted EBITDA margin to the most directly comparable GAAPmeasure, net income (and net income per diluted share), without unreasonable effort due to the variability, complexity, and low visibilityof certain reconciling items. These items include, but are not limited to, stock-based compensation and other non-recurring items, whichcould have a material impact on GAAP results.

Paysign, Inc. Non-GAAP Measures
To supplement Paysign’s financial results presented on a GAAP basis, we use non-GAAP measures that exclude from net income the following cash and non-cash items: interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization and stock-based compensation. We believe these non-GAAP measures used by management to gauge the operating performance of the business help investors better evaluate our past financial performance and potential future results. Non-GAAP measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for comparable GAAP accounting, and investors should read them in conjunction with the company’s financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP. The non-GAAP measures we use may be different from, and not directly comparable to, similarly titled measures used by other companies.
“EBITDA” is defined as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization expense. “Adjusted EBITDA” reflects the adjustment to EBITDA to exclude stock-based compensation charges.
EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not intended to represent cash flows from operations, operating income or net income as defined by U.S. GAAP as indicators of operating performances. Management cautions that amounts presented in accordance with Paysign’s definition of Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similar measures disclosed by other companies because not all companies calculate Adjusted EBITDA in the same manner.
