Raises full-year 2022 financial guidance
PORTLAND, Maine--(BUSINESS WIRE)--October 27, 2022--WEX (NYSE: WEX), the global commerce platform that simplifies the business of running a business, today reported financial results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022.
“I am pleased to report that WEX had record third quarter revenue that exceeded our expectations. We continue to leverage our powerful growth engine to win new customers, expand on relationships with existing customers, and diversify our offerings with compelling new solutions that extend our addressable market,” said Melissa Smith, WEX’s Chair and Chief Executive Officer.
Ms. Smith added, "As we move forward our ability to generate strong cash flows combined with the flexibility and diversity of our business model, gives us confidence in our capacity to invest in the business and return capital to shareholders.”
Third Quarter 2022 Financial Results
Total revenue for the third quarter of 2022 increased 28% to $616.1 million from $482.8 million for the third quarter of 2021. The revenue increase in the quarter includes a $55.7 million favorable impact from fuel prices and spreads and an $11.7 million negative impact from foreign exchange rates.
Net income attributable to shareholders on a GAAP basis decreased by $92.5 million to a net loss of $44.1 million, or $1.00 per diluted share for the third quarter of 2022, compared with net income of $48.3 million, or $1.07 per diluted share, for the third quarter of 2021. The Company's adjusted net income attributable to shareholders, which is a non-GAAP measure, was $157.8 million for the third quarter of 2022, or $3.51 per diluted share, up 43% per diluted share from $111.1 million or $2.45 per diluted share for the same period last year. GAAP operating income margin for the third quarter of 2022 was 3.5% compared to 20.9% for the prior year comparable period. Adjusted operating income margin was 39.1% in the third quarter of 2022 compared to 37.0% for the prior year comparable period. See Exhibit 5 for information on the calculation of adjusted operating income margin. See Exhibit 1 for a full explanation and reconciliation of adjusted net income attributable to shareholders, adjusted net income attributable to shareholders per diluted share and adjusted operating income to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures.
Third Quarter 2022 Performance Metrics
“We delivered excellent third quarter results, achieving strong top-line growth while continuing to make good progress on our strategic objectives,” said Jagtar Narula, WEX’s Chief Financial Officer. “As a result, I’m pleased to share that we are again raising our full year guidance.”
Financial Guidance and Assumptions
The Company provides revenue guidance on a GAAP basis and earnings guidance on a non-GAAP basis, due to the uncertainty and the indeterminate amount of certain elements that are included in reported GAAP earnings.
Fourth quarter and full year 2022 guidance is based on assumed average U.S. retail fuel prices of $4.00 and $4.38 per gallon, respectively. The fuel prices referenced above are based on the applicable NYMEX futures price from the week of October 17, 2022. Our guidance assumes approximately 46.3 million fully diluted shares outstanding for the full year.
The Company's adjusted net income guidance, which is a non-GAAP measure, excludes unrealized gains and losses on financial instruments, net foreign currency gains and losses, changes in fair value of contingent consideration, acquisition-related intangible amortization, other acquisition and divestiture related items, stock-based compensation, other costs, impairment charges, debt restructuring and debt issuance cost amortization, adjustments attributable to our non-controlling interests and certain tax related items. We are unable to reconcile our adjusted net income guidance to the comparable GAAP measure without unreasonable effort because of the difficulty in predicting the amounts to be adjusted, including, but not limited to, foreign currency exchange rates, unrealized gains and losses on financial instruments, and acquisition and divestiture related items, which may have a significant impact on our financial results.
Additional Information
Management uses the non-GAAP measures presented within this earnings release to evaluate the Company's performance on a comparable basis. Management believes that investors may find these measures useful for the same purposes, but cautions that they should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, disclosure in accordance with GAAP.
To provide investors with additional insight into its operational performance, WEX has included in this earnings release in: Exhibit 1, reconciliations of non-GAAP measures referenced in this earnings release; in Exhibit 2, tables illustrating the impact of foreign currency rates and fuel prices for each of our reportable segments for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022; and in Exhibit 3, a table of selected non-financial metrics for the quarter ended September 30, 2022 and the four preceding quarters. The Company is also providing segment revenue for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 in Exhibit 4 and information regarding segment adjusted operating income margin and adjusted operating income margin in Exhibit 5.

1 As the Company reported a net loss for the three months ended September 30, 2022 under U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”), the diluted weighted average shares outstanding equals the basic weighted average shares outstanding for that period. The non-GAAP adjustments described above resulted in adjusted net income attributable to shareholders (versus a loss on a GAAP basis) for the three months ended September 30, 2022. Therefore, dilutive common stock equivalents have been included in the calculation of adjusted diluted weighted average shares outstanding to arrive at adjusted per share data.
2 During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, the dilutive impact of convertible notes has been calculated under the 'if-converted' method in accordance with GAAP. Under such method, $3.8 million and $11.3 million of interest expense associated with our convertible notes, net of tax, was added back to adjusted net income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, respectively, and approximately 1.6 million shares of the Company’s common stock associated with the assumed conversion of the convertible notes as of the beginning of the periods were included in the calculation of adjusted net income per diluted share, as the effect of including such adjustments was dilutive.

The Company's non-GAAP adjusted net income excludes unrealized gains and losses on financial instruments, net foreign currency gains and losses, changes in fair value of contingent consideration, acquisition-related intangible amortization, other acquisition and divestiture related items, stock-based compensation, impairment charges, other costs, debt restructuring and debt issuance cost amortization, adjustments attributable to our non-controlling interests and certain tax related items.
The Company's non-GAAP adjusted operating income excludes acquisition-related intangible amortization, other acquisition and divestiture related items, stock-based compensation, other costs, debt restructuring costs and impairment charges. Total segment adjusted operating income incorporates these same adjustments and further excludes unallocated corporate expenses.
Although adjusted net income, adjusted operating income and total segment adjusted operating income are not calculated in accordance with GAAP, these non-GAAP measures are integral to the Company's reporting and planning processes and the chief operating decision maker of the Company uses segment adjusted operating income to allocate resources among our operating segments. The Company considers these measures integral because they exclude the above specified items that the Company's management excludes in evaluating the Company's performance. Specifically, in addition to evaluating the Company's performance on a GAAP basis, management evaluates the Company's performance on a basis that excludes the above items because:
For the same reasons, WEX believes that adjusted net income, adjusted operating income and total segment adjusted operating income may also be useful to investors when evaluating the Company's performance. However, because adjusted net income, adjusted operating income and total segment adjusted operating income are non-GAAP measures, they should not be considered as a substitute for, or superior to, net income, operating income or cash flows from operating activities as determined in accordance with GAAP. In addition, adjusted net income, adjusted operating income and total segment adjusted operating income as used by WEX may not be comparable to similarly titled measures employed by other companies.
Reconciliation of GAAP Operating Cash Flow to Adjusted Free Cash Flow
The Company’s non-GAAP adjusted free cash flow is calculated as cash generated from operations, excluding the change in restricted cash payable, less net purchases (maturities) of available-for-sale debt securities and capital expenditures plus the change in net deposits. Although non-GAAP adjusted free cash flow is not calculated in accordance with GAAP, we feel adjusted free cash flow is a useful measure because: Adjusted free cash flow indicates the level of cash generated by the operations of the business after appropriate reinvestment for recurring investments in property, equipment and capitalized software that are required to operate the business; the activity in restricted cash payable is not able to be used by the Company for general corporate purposes; changes in net deposits occur on a daily basis as a regular part of operations and available for sale investments are made as a result of deposits gathered operationally. We believe this is a useful measure for investors to further evaluate the results of operations. However, because adjusted free cash flow is a non-GAAP measure, it should not be considered as a substitute for, or superior to, operating cash flow as determined in accordance with GAAP. In addition, adjusted free cash flow as used by WEX may not be comparable to similarly titled measures employed by other companies. Refer to our reconciliation below for our calculation of adjusted free cash flow for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021.

To determine the impact of foreign exchange translation (“FX”) on revenue, revenue from entities whose functional currency is not denominated in U.S. dollars, as well as revenue from purchase volume transacted in non-U.S. denominated currencies, were translated using the weighted average exchange rates for the same period in the prior year, exclusive of revenue derived from acquisitions for one year following the acquisition dates.
To determine the impact of price per gallon of fuel (“PPG”) on revenue, revenue subject to changes in fuel prices was calculated based on the average retail price of fuel for the same period in the prior year for the portion of our business that earns revenue based on a percentage of fuel spend, exclusive of revenue derived from acquisitions for one year following the acquisition dates. For the portions of our business that earn revenue based on margin spreads, revenue was calculated utilizing the comparable margin from the prior year.

To determine the estimated adjusted net income impact of FX on revenue and expenses from entities whose functional currency is not denominated in U.S. dollars, as well as revenue and variable expenses from purchase volume transacted in non-U.S. denominated currencies, amounts were translated using the weighted average exchange rates for the same period in the prior year, net of tax, exclusive of revenue and expenses derived from acquisitions for one year following the acquisition dates.
To determine the estimated adjusted net income impact of PPG, revenue and certain variable expenses impacted by changes in fuel prices were adjusted based on the average retail price of fuel for the same period in the prior year for the portion of our business that earns revenue based on a percentage of fuel spend, net of applicable taxes, exclusive of revenue and expenses derived from acquisitions for one year following the acquisition dates. For the portions of our business that earn revenue based on margin spreads, revenue was adjusted to the comparable margin from the prior year, net of non-controlling interests and applicable taxes.

Amended Program Authorizes Repurchase of up to $650 Million Worth of Company Stock
PORTLAND, Maine--(BUSINESS WIRE)--October 27, 2022--WEX (NYSE: WEX), the global commerce platform that simplifies the business of running a business, announced that its board of directors has authorized an amended share repurchase program under which up to $650 million worth of WEX’s common stock may be repurchased.
The current share repurchase program, first announced in August, initially authorized the Company to repurchase up to $150 million of common stock over a four year period through August 23, 2026. This amendment increases the repurchase authorization to $650 million of common stock and shortens the duration to December 31, 2025.
This year, WEX has repurchased $225 million of its common stock, including $75 million representing 536,566 shares under the current program during the month of October 2022. Accordingly, as of today, the Company has approximately $575 million of capacity remaining under the current repurchase authorization. Furthermore, WEX purchased approximately $150 million under a previously authorized, substantially completed, and terminated share repurchase program.
“As we outlined at our investor day in March, we are focused on investing for growth, executing strategic M&A that expands our reach, and maintaining a strong and flexible balance sheet. At the same time, we are committed to returning capital to shareholders when conditions are appropriate. Given current valuations, we see this as an attractive time to buy our own shares,” said Melissa Smith, Chair and CEO. “This amended authorization reflects our board and management team’s confidence in WEX’s ability to generate strong earnings and free cash flow. We believe WEX is well positioned to continue investing for growth while opportunistically returning capital to shareholders.”
Under the amended program, repurchases may be made on a discretionary basis from time to time through open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions, accelerated share repurchase programs or other derivative transactions, issuer self-tender offers, any combination of the foregoing, or any other purchase techniques deemed appropriate. The timing and amount of any transactions are subject to the discretion of WEX based upon, among other things, market conditions and other opportunities that the Company may have for the use or investment of its cash balances. In addition, repurchases are subject to the availability of shares of stock for purchase, prevailing market conditions, the trading price of the Company’s stock and the Company's financial performance. The repurchase program does not obligate WEX to acquire any specific number of shares and may be modified, discontinued or suspended at any time. WEX intends that all instructions for the repurchase of shares under this program shall be in compliance with Rule 10b-18 and the covenants or provisions of any debt or other obligations then outstanding. Purchases may be executed through the use of Rule 10b5-1 trading plans or other techniques.
