Three Months Ended June 30, 2020 and 2019
The decrease in total revenues of $2.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020 compared to the same period in the prior year approximating 25%, consisted of a 30% reduction in Plasma revenue and a 16% reduction in Pharma revenue. This decrease was primarily due to a significant decrease in plasma donations and dollars loaded to card; combined with a smaller decrease in Pharma revenues resulting from lower unspent balances and improved client program management. Both industries were impacted by a novel coronavirus and the incidence of the related disease COVID-19.
Cost of revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2020 decreased $460 thousand compared to the same period in the prior year, and constituted approximately 49% and 42% of total revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Cost of revenues is comprised of transaction processing fees, data connectivity and data center expenses, network fees, bank fees, card production costs, customer service and program management expenses, application integration setup, and sales and commission expense. There was a favorable volume variance of $914 thousand due to the decrease in transactions, offset by an unfavorable rate variance of $454 thousand resulting from a decrease in higher margin revenue business.
Gross profit for the three months ended June 30, 2020 decreased $1.7 million compared to the same period in the prior year resulting from the reduction in revenue aforementioned, and the disproportionate decrease in cost of sales. The decrease of 705 basis points (“bps”) in gross margin resulted from an unfavorable cost of revenue rate variance and a lower revenue conversion rate.
Selling, general and administrative expenses (“SG&A”) for the three months ended June 30, 2020 increased $389 thousand or 13% compared to the same period in the prior year and consisted primarily of an increase in staffing and compensation of $329 thousand, technologies and telecom of $87 thousand, and rent of $65 thousand; offset by a decrease in travel of $103 thousand.
The net income (loss) attributable to Paysign, Inc. for the three months ended June 30, 2020 decreased $2.0 million. The overall change in net income (loss) attributable to Paysign, Inc. relates to the aforementioned factors.
Six Months Ended June 30, 2020 and 2019
Total revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2020 increased $1.1 million compared to the same period in the prior year. The increase in revenue approximating 7% was primarily due to an approximate increase of 20% in new card programs year on year, contributing to a strong first quarter, offset primarily due to the effects of COVID-19 in the second quarter.
Cost of revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2020 increased $914 thousand compared to the same period in the prior year. Cost of revenues constituted approximately 47% and 45% of total revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Cost of revenues is comprised of transaction processing fees, data connectivity and data center expenses, network fees, bank fees, card production costs, customer service and program management expenses, application integration setup, and sales and commission expense. Our cost of revenues as a percentage of revenues increased due to an unfavorable rate variance resulting from a change in transaction mix, combined with an unfavorable volume variance.
Gross profit for the six months ended June 30, 2020 increased $212 thousand compared to the same period in the prior year. Our overall gross margins were 53% and 55% during the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, a decrease of 242 bps consistent with the change in cost of revenues as a percent of revenues.
Selling, general and administrative expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2020 increased $1.5 million or 26% compared to the same period in the prior year. The increase in SG&A consisted primarily of an increase in staffing and wages of $1.0 million, professional services for tax, audit, and consultants of $252 thousand, stock-based compensation of $110 thousand, and rent of $94 thousand.

“While we have seen a partial recovery related to the easing of government restrictions in the latter portion of the second quarter, we anticipate similar results for the current quarter, followed by an upturn in Q4 resulting from onboarding a number of new client programs”, stated Mark Attinger, Chief Financial Officer, Paysign.
COVID-19 Update
Impact of COVID-19 Pandemic
The outbreak of a novel coronavirus and the incidence of the related disease (COVID-19) starting in late 2019 has continued, spreading throughout the United States and much of the world beginning in the first quarter of 2020. In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared the outbreak as a pandemic. While the disruption is currently expected to be temporary, there is uncertainty around the duration. The COVID-19 outbreak has had and will continue to have an adverse effect on the Company's results of operations. Given the uncertainty around the extent and timing of the potential future spread or mitigation of COVID-19 and around the imposition or relaxation of protective measures, management cannot reasonably estimate the impact to the Company's future results of operations, cash flows, or financial condition.

To supplement Paysign’s financial results presented on a GAAP basis, we use non-GAAP measures of net income that excludes the following cash and non-cash items – interest, taxes, amortization and depreciation, stock-based compensation, and loss on abandonment of assets. We believe these non-GAAP measures 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 of net income 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 and loss on abandonment of assets.
Adjusted EBITDA is not intended to represent cash flows from operations, operating income (loss) or net income (loss) 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.
