Euronet reports the following consolidated results for the fourth quarter 2018 compared with the same period of 2017:
- Revenues of $649.4 million, a 7% increase from $604.6 million (10% increase on a constant currency(1) basis).

- Adjusted EBITDA(3) of $116.3 million, a 13% increase from $102.9 million (16% increase on a constant currency basis).
- Net income attributable to Euronet of $60.0 million or $1.10 diluted earnings per share, compared with net loss of $22.9 million or $0.44 diluted loss per share.
- Adjusted earnings per share(4) of $1.37, a 21% increase from $1.13.
- Transactions of 1.08 billion, a 15% increase from 937 million.
Euronet reports the following consolidated results for the full year 2018 compared with the same period of 2017:
- Revenues of $2,537 million, a 13% increase from $2,252 million (10% increase on a constant currency basis).
- Operating income of $358.0 million, a 35% increase from $266.0 million (30% increase on a constant currency basis).
- Adjusted operating income of $371.6 million, a 22% increase from $304.6 million (18% increase on a constant currency basis).

“We finished the year strong, delivering fourth quarter adjusted EPS of $1.37, a 21% year-over-year increase,” stated Michael J. Brown, Euronet’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “This strong fourth quarter growth included double-digit revenue and adjusted EBITDA contributions from all three segments, together with beneficial income tax expense. EFT sustained its growth from continued expansion of our ATM networks. epay delivered a strong fourth quarter resulting from seasonally strong sales of non-mobile content. And Money Transfer continued its strong growth trends from success in both the physical and digital channels.”
“For the full year, we delivered adjusted EPS of $5.53, a 21% year-over-year increase and the sixth consecutive year we have delivered strong double-digit growth in adjusted EPS,” continued Mr. Brown. “All three segments contributed to this growth through continued focus on network and product expansion in new and existing markets.”

Segment and Other Results
The EFT Processing Segment reports the following results for the fourth quarter 2018 compared with the same period or date in 2017:
- Revenues of $161.3 million, a 10% increase from $146.5 million (15% increase on a constant currency basis).
- Operating income of $22.4 million, a 13% decrease from $25.8 million (12% decrease on a constant currency basis).
- Adjusted operating income of $29.0 million, a 12% increase from $25.8 million (14% increase on a constant currency basis).
- Adjusted EBITDA of $46.4 million, a 12% increase from $41.6 million (14% increase on a constant currency basis).
- Transactions of 711 million, a 13% increase from 627 million.
- Operated 40,354 ATMs as of December 31, 2018, a 9% increase from 37,133.
The EFT Processing Segment reports the following results for the full year 2018 compared with the same period or date in 2017:
- Revenues of $753.6 million, a 19% increase from $634.6 million (16% increase on a constant currency basis).
- Operating income of $197.2 million, a 21% increase from $162.9 million (17% increase on a constant currency basis).
- Adjusted operating income of $203.8 million, a 23% increase from $165.2 million (20% increase on a constant currency basis).
- Adjusted EBITDA of $270.5 million, a 23% increase from $220.8 million (19% increase on a constant currency basis).
- Transactions of 2.72 billion, a 16% increase from 2.35 billion.
Double-digit fourth quarter constant currency revenue, adjusted operating income and adjusted EBITDA growth was largely the result of a 9% year-over-year increase in active ATMs and a 13% increase in transactions. The increase in transactions was primarily from growth in Europe and India – including an increase in traditional cash withdrawals as well as the number of value-added transactions, such as dynamic currency conversion, domestic and international surcharge, and foreign currency dispensing transactions – on both ATMs and point-of-sale terminals.
Similar to prior years, the EFT segment added more than 1,300 high-value ATMs during the fourth quarter – deployed primarily throughout Europe and India – which positions the EFT segment for a continuation of strong revenue growth, but these ATMs also contribute to higher operating costs in the seasonally weaker first quarter.
For the full year 2018, ATM growth reflects the addition of approximately 3,800 high-value ATMs in Europe and India as well as the acquisition of approximately 400 Easycash ATMs in Ireland, less 131 fewer low-margin ATMs and nearly 900 more winterized ATMs than the prior year.
Full year 2018 revenue, adjusted operating income and adjusted EBITDA growth was primarily the result of ATM network and transaction expansion.
Fourth quarter and full year 2018 operating income includes a one-time $6.6 million post-acquisition charge which has been excluded from adjusted operating income, adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EPS. Prior year operating income includes a $2.3 million impairment charge recorded in the second quarter 2017 related to the Company’s decision to close its Pure Commerce office in South Korea; this $2.3 million impairment charge has been excluded from adjusted operating income, adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EPS.
The epay Segment reports the following results for the fourth quarter 2018 compared with the same period or date in 2017:
- Revenues of $215.0 million, a 3% decrease from $221.5 million (no change on a constant currency basis).
- Operating income of $29.3 million, compared with an operating loss of $6.3 million.
- Adjusted operating income of $29.3 million, a 15% increase from $25.5 million (19% increase on a constant currency basis).
- Adjusted EBITDA of $30.7 million, a 12% increase from $27.5 million (16% increase on a constant currency basis).
- Transactions of 344 million, a 21% increase from 285 million.
- Point-of-sale (“POS”) terminals of approximately 719,000 as of December 31, 2018, a 5% increase from approximately 683,000.
- Retailer locations of approximately 334,000 as of December 31, 2018, a 7% increase from approximately 313,000.
The epay Segment reports the following results for the full year 2018 compared with the same period or date in 2017:
- Revenues of $743.7 million, a 1% increase from $734.0 million (1% decrease on a constant currency basis).
- Operating income of $78.9 million, a 107% increase from $38.1 million (102% increase on a constant currency basis).
- Adjusted operating income of $78.9 million, a 13% increase from $69.9 million (10% increase on a constant currency basis).
- Adjusted EBITDA of $86.0 million, an 8% increase from $79.6 million (5% increase on a constant currency basis).
- Transactions of 1.15 billion, a 3% decrease from 1.19 billion.
In January 2018, the Company adopted prospectively the newly required Generally Accepted Accounting Principle standard ASC 606, and as a result now reports certain revenues in the epay segment on a net basis rather than a gross basis as done in prior years. Had epay not adopted ASC 606, fourth quarter revenues would have been approximately $35.2 million greater on a reported basis or 13% reported growth, and $37.6 million greater on a constant currency basis, or 17% constant currency growth, with no impact on gross profit. Full year revenues would have been approximately $88.5 million greater on a reported basis or 13% reported growth, and $82.9 million greater on a constant currency basis, or 11% constant currency growth, with no impact on gross profit.
Adjusted for the adoption of the revenue recognition standard, epay fourth quarter and full year constant currency revenue, adjusted operating income and adjusted EBITDA growth was primarily the result of increased sales of non-mobile products, partially offset by certain mobile transaction declines.
Prior year operating income for the fourth quarter and full year included a $31.8 million goodwill impairment charge related to the Company’s businesses in the Middle East, North America and the United Kingdom; this $31.8 million goodwill impairment charge has been excluded from adjusted operating income, adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EPS.
Fourth quarter transactions increased from strong growth in India and Germany. The full year transaction decline was largely the result of the previously reported loss of a high-volume, low-margin customer in the Middle East, largely offset by strong transaction growth in India and Germany.
epay terminal and location counts have been restated in both the current and prior periods to eliminate intra-segment counts.
The Money Transfer Segment reports the following results for the fourth quarter 2018 compared with the same period or date in 2017:
- Revenues of $274.1 million, a 15% increase from $237.6 million (17% increase on a constant currency basis).
- Operating income of $29.3 million, virtually no change from $29.2 million (1% increase on a constant currency basis).
- Adjusted operating income of $36.3 million, a 24% increase from $29.2 million (26% increase on a constant currency basis).
- Adjusted EBITDA of $44.6 million, a 21% increase from $36.8 million (23% increase on a constant currency basis).
- Total transactions of 28.5 million, a 15% increase from 24.8 million.
- Network locations of approximately 369,000 as of December 31, 2018, an 8% increase from approximately 343,000.
The Money Transfer Segment reports the following results for the full year 2018 compared with the same period or date in 2017:
- Revenues of $1,043.1 million, an 18% increase from $886.7 million (16% increase on a constant currency basis).
- Operating income of $122.8 million, an 18% increase from $104.5 million (14% increase on a constant currency basis).
- Adjusted operating income of $129.8 million, a 24% increase from $104.5 million (21% increase on a constant currency basis).
- Adjusted EBITDA of $161.9 million, a 21% increase from $134.1 million (18% increase on a constant currency basis).
- Total transactions of 107.6 million, a 17% increase from 92.2 million.
Fourth quarter and full year 2018 double-digit constant currency revenue, adjusted operating income and adjusted EBITDA growth was driven by strong growth across most all sectors of the money transfer business, including both physical and digital transfers.
Fourth quarter and full year 2018 operating income includes a $7.0 million impairment charge on intangible assets related to the HiFX brand name resulting from the Company’s decision to unify the branding of its international payments business under the XE brand; this $7.0 million impairment charge on intangible assets has been excluded from adjusted operating income, adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EPS.
Fourth quarter 2018 money transfers grew 15% and non-transfer transactions, such as currency exchange and check cashing, grew 15%, resulting in total transaction growth of 15%.
Full year 2018 money transfers grew 16% and non-transfer transactions grew 20%, resulting in total transaction growth of 17%.
Corporate and Other reports $9.8 million of expense for the fourth quarter 2018 compared with $7.6 million for the fourth quarter 2017. For the full year 2018, Corporate and other reports $40.9 million of expense compared with $39.5 million for the full year 2017. Excluding costs related to the proposed MoneyGram transaction in 2017, adjusted operating expense was $35.0 million. Increased corporate expense for both the fourth quarter and full year 2018 is largely due to increased long-term and short-term variable incentive compensation expense based on Company performance.
Balance Sheet and Financial Position
Unrestricted cash on hand was $1.05 billion as of December 31, 2018, compared to $1.13 billion as of September 30, 2018. Repayments of ATM cash borrowings were largely offset by settlement timing in the business and cash generated from operations.
Total indebtedness was $641.5 million as of December 31, 2018, compared to $889.0 million as of September 30, 2018. Debt decreased primarily as a result of revolver repayments due to lower seasonal ATM cash requirements.
Guidance
The Company currently expects adjusted earnings per share for the first quarter 2019, assuming foreign currency exchange rates and the Company’s share price remain stable through the end of the quarter, to be approximately $0.83.
Non-GAAP Measures
In addition to the results presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP, the Company presents non-GAAP financial measures, such as constant currency financial measures, adjusted operating income, adjusted EBITDA and adjusted earnings per share. These measures should be used in addition to, and not a substitute for, revenues, net income, operating income and earnings per share computed in accordance with U.S. GAAP. We believe that these non-GAAP measures provide useful information to investors regarding the Company’s performance and overall results of operations. These non-GAAP measures are also an integral part of the Company’s internal reporting and performance assessment for executives and senior management. The non-GAAP measures used by the Company may not be comparable to similarly titled non-GAAP measures used by other companies. The attached schedules provide a full reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measure.
The Company does not provide a reconciliation of its forward-looking non-GAAP measures to GAAP due to the inherent difficulty in forecasting and quantifying certain amounts that are necessary for GAAP and the related GAAP to non-GAAP reconciliation, including adjustments that would be necessary for currency exchange rate fluctuations and other charges reflected in the Company’s reconciliation of historic numbers, the amount of which, based on historical experience, could be significant.
(1) Constant currency financial measures are computed as if foreign currency exchange rates did not change from the prior period. This information is provided to illustrate the impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates on the Company’s results when compared to the prior period.
(2) Adjusted operating income is defined as operating income excluding expenses related to the 2017 proposed MoneyGram acquisition, a one-time post-acquisition charge and impairment charges.
(3) Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income excluding interest, income tax expense, depreciation, amortization, share-based compensation, expenses related to the 2017 proposed MoneyGram acquisition, a one-time post-acquisition charge, impairment charges, and other non-operating or non-recurring items that are considered expenses or income under U.S. GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA represents a performance measure and is not intended to represent a liquidity measure.
(4) Adjusted earnings per share is defined as diluted U.S. GAAP earnings per share excluding, to the extent incurred in the period, the tax-effected impacts of: a) foreign currency exchange gains or losses, b) goodwill and intangible asset impairment charges, c) gains or losses from the early retirement of debt, d) share-based compensation, e) acquired intangible asset amortization, f) expenses related to the 2017 proposed MoneyGram acquisition, g) non-cash interest expense, h) non-cash income tax expense, i) certain impacts of the tax reform legislation passed in 2017, j) a one-time post-acquisition charge and k) other non-operating or non-recurring items. Adjusted earnings per share represents a performance measure and is not intended to represent a liquidity measure.
