Priority Technology Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ: PRTH) (“Priority” or the
“Company”), a leading fintech enterprise with strong core payments
technology, today announced its first quarter 2019 financial results.
Highlights
Highlights of the first quarter 2019 financial results as compared with
the first quarter of 2018 include:
-
Consolidated revenue of $100.0 million declined 13.5%. Adjusted
consolidated revenue(1), a non-GAAP measure, which excludes
the impact of subscription-billing e-commerce merchants, of $96.1
million increased 14.5%. -
Total merchant bankcard processing dollar value grew 8.8% to $9.9
billion from $9.1 billion. -
Gross profit margin increased 290 basis points from 24.6% to 27.5%.
The Company’s non-GAAP gross profit metric represents consolidated
revenue less costs of merchant card fees and other costs of services.
Adjusted gross profit margin(1), excluding the impact of
subscription-billing e-commerce merchants, increased 510 basis points
from 21.9% to 27.0%. -
Consolidated adjusted EBITDA of $12.5 million decreased $2.8 million.
The Company’s non-GAAP Consolidated adjusted EBITDA measure is
earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization
(EBITDA), further adjusted for non-cash compensation and certain other
expenses considered non-recurring. Consolidated adjusted EBITDA(1),
excluding the impact of subscription-billing e-commerce merchants, of
$10.8 million increased $5.6 million. -
In March 2019, the Company entered into a real estate payments
operating partnership with Yapstone, Inc. and acquired assets from
them that enables Priority to provide a single platform to meet the
needs of all landlord constituents – from integrated enterprise
property managers, middle market partners and small/local landlords
for rent, dues and storage.
(1) See “Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” at
the end of this earnings release for details regarding these measures.
“Priority’s first quarter results continued to reflect positive
fundamentals and solid underlying growth, despite the previously
discussed suspension in the boarding of subscription-billing e-commerce
merchants. Core acquiring remains consistent, with strong merchant
boarding trends throughout the quarter, and market adoption of our
Commercial Payments platform is accelerating. Our Integrated Partners
business group is also gaining significant traction across all
verticals, including Hospitality, Healthcare and Real Estate – and most
recently fueled by our operating partnership with Yapstone. As we strive
to distinguish Priority from traditional merchant service providers by
extending our success into software-based transaction technology,” said
Tom Priore, Executive Chairman and CEO of Priority.
Discussion of First Quarter Results
The comparative revenue and gross profit for the first quarter was
negatively affected by the wind-down of high-margin accounts with
certain subscription-billing e-commerce merchants. The wind-down of
merchants in this channel was due to industry-wide changes for enhanced
card association compliance. This revenue, which is included entirely
within the Consumer Payments reportable segment, was $3.9 million and
$31.7 million in the first quarters of 2019 and 2018, respectively. The
corresponding gross profit and income from operations associated with
this revenue was $1.6 million and $10.0 million in the first quarters of
2019 and 2018, respectively.
Income from operations includes certain expenses that the Company
considers non-recurring in nature, largely associated with conversion to
a public company, such as legal, accounting, advisory and consulting
expenses plus certain litigation costs. Non-recurring expenses, which
are contained within Corporate, were $1.2 million and $3.3 million in
the first quarters of 2019 and 2018, respectively.
Revenue:
Consolidated
Consolidated revenue in the first quarter of 2019 amounted to $100.0
million, a decline of $15.6 million compared with the 2018 first
quarter. This decline was driven by the previously discussed wind-down
of the subscription-billing e-commerce merchants. Adjusted consolidated
revenue of $96.1 million, which excludes the impact of
subscription-billing e-commerce merchants, increased $12.1 million, or
14.5%.
Total merchant bankcard volume processed in the first quarter of 2019 of
$9.9 billion grew by 8.8%, as compared with $9.1 billion in the first
quarter of 2018. Merchant bankcard transaction volume of 117.9 million
in the first quarter of 2019 grew by 6.7%, as compared with 110.4
million in the 2018 first quarter. Average ticket (calculated by
dividing bankcard volume processed by the associated number of
transactions processed) of $84.40 grew 2.0% in the first quarter of
2019, as compared with $82.76 in the comparable 2018 quarter.
Consumer Payments Reportable Segment
Consumer Payments revenue in the first quarter of 2019 was $89.8
million, a decline of $19.2 million compared with the 2018 first
quarter. Excluding the subscription-billing e-commerce business,
adjusted Consumer Payments reportable segment revenue increased $8.6
million, or 11.1%, from $77.3 million in the first quarter of 2018 to
$85.9 million in the first quarter of 2019.
Merchant bankcard volume processed in the first quarter of 2019 of $9.9
billion grew by 8.7%, as compared with $9.1 billion in the first quarter
of 2018. Merchant bankcard transaction volume of 117.8 million in the
first quarter of 2019 grew by 6.7%, as compared with 110.4 million in
the 2018 first quarter. Average ticket of $83.82 grew 1.9% in the first
quarter of 2019, as compared with $82.28 in the comparable 2018 quarter.
Commercial Payments and Managed Services Reportable Segment
Commercial Payments and Managed Services revenue in the first quarter of
2019 amounted to $10.2 million, a 53.5% increase over $6.6 million in
the 2018 first quarter. Revenue in the first quarter of 2019 included
$3.2 million from the recently established Integrated Partners business
group within this reportable segment. Commercial Payments revenue of
$1.5 million in the first quarter of 2019 increased 54.2% compared with
the 2018 first quarter. Managed Services revenue of $5.5 million in the
first quarter of 2019 was in line with the 2018 first quarter.
Income from Operations:
Consolidated
Consolidated income from operations was $1.0 million in the first
quarter of 2019, compared with $7.9 million in the 2018 first quarter.
This decline of $6.9 million was due to a decrease in gross profit of
$0.9 million, an increase in depreciation and amortization of $5.2
million and an increase in salaries and employee benefits of $1.9
million, partially offset by a $1.0 million decrease in selling, general
and administrative expenses. Included in selling, general and
administrative expenses in the first quarters of 2019 and 2018 were $1.2
million and $3.3 million, respectively, of certain expenses the Company
considers non-recurring in nature. Non-cash equity-based compensation of
$1.2 million, included in salaries and employee benefits, increased $1.0
million.
Consumer Payments Reportable Segment
Consumer Payments income from operations in the first quarter of 2019
was $7.7 million, a decline of $7.5 million compared with the 2018 first
quarter. Income from operations from the subscription-billing e-commerce
merchants declined $8.4 million. Depreciation and amortization of $7.8
million in the first quarter of 2019 increased $4.4 million compared
with $3.4 million in the first quarter of 2018, due largely to
amortization related to merchant portfolio acquisitions subsequent to
the first quarter of 2018. Adjusted Consumer Payments reportable segment
income from operations, which excludes the impact of
subscription-billing e-commerce merchants, grew 17.7% to $6.1 million.
Commercial Payments and Managed Services Reportable Segment
Commercial Payments and Managed Services reflected a loss from
operations of $0.7 million in the first quarter of 2019 due to $0.8
million of depreciation and amortization. This compares with a loss from
operations of $0.3 million in the first quarter of 2018, which included
depreciation and amortization of $0.1 million. The increased
depreciation and amortization is attributable to amortization of
intangible assets acquired within the Integrated Partners business group.
Corporate
Corporate expense in the first quarter of 2019 amounted to $6.1 million,
compared with $7.0 million in the first quarter of 2018. Non-recurring
expenses amounted to $1.2 million and $3.3 million in the first quarters
of 2019 and 2018, respectively.
Interest Expense:
Interest expense of $9.4 million in the first quarter of 2019 increased
by $2.4 million from $6.9 million in the 2018 first quarter. The
increase is due to higher outstanding borrowings driven by acquisition
financing.
Other Income (Expense), Net:
Other income, net of $0.2 million in the first quarter of 2019, compares
with other expense, net of $4.1 million in the first quarter of 2018.
The 2018 first quarter includes $3.5 million of expense related to the
change in fair value of the Goldman Sachs warrant and $0.8 million of
debt modification costs.
Acquisition / Partnership Updates
Priority’s acquisition strategy continues to identify and purchase
integrated product channels and existing reselling partners. The Company
continued purchases of merchant portfolios in the first quarter of 2019
with the execution of a handful of tuck-in acquisitions. In addition,
Priority Real Estate Technology (“PRET”), an operating subsidiary of the
Company, acquired assets from and entered into a real estate payments
operating partnership with Yapstone, Inc., a leading provider of online
and mobile payment solutions. Priority is the majority owner in the
partnership with a preferred equity position and has assumed
responsibility for the management and daily operation of the newly
combined assets. PRET will provide critical operating infrastructure,
marketing and sales support and real estate technology assets, including
products and services derived from the previous acquisitions of RadPad
and Landlord Station. Together, the Company believes that the new entity
will provide a single platform that meets the needs of all landlord
constituents – from integrated enterprise property managers, middle
market partners and small/local landlords for rent, dues and storage.
Priority funded these transactions through a $70.0 million delayed draw
under its December 24, 2018 amended Senior Secured Credit Facility,
$10.0 million borrowing from a revolving credit agreement and cash on
hand.
Liquidity
Working capital (defined as current assets less current liabilities) was
$11.7 million at March 31, 2019, compared with $21.1 million at December
31, 2018. Unrestricted cash amounted to $9.1 million at March 31, 2019,
compared with $15.6 million at December 31, 2018. These unrestricted
balances do not include cash of $20.1 million at March 31, 2019 and
$18.2 million at December 31, 2018 related to customer settlement funds.
At March 31, 2019, the Company had availability of $15.0 million under a
revolving credit facility.
Debt
As of March 31, 2019, total term debt amounted to $483.1 million,
compared to $412.7 million at December 31, 2018. The debt balance
consisted of outstanding term debt of $391.8 million under the Senior
Credit Facility and $91.2 million in term debt under the subordinated
Goldman Sachs Credit Agreement (including accrued payment-in-kind
(“PIK”) interest through March 31, 2019).
2019 Outlook
Priore concluded, “Priority’s future remains bright as we look to build
on strong underlying growth throughout our business. Our
industry-leading technology and service offering, combined with our
recent partnership with Yapstone and acquisition of Direct Connect’s
portfolio assets, have positioned the Company well for long-term growth
and profitability. We remain confident in our ability to deliver modest
revenue growth over 2018, despite a forecasted $50 million revenue
decline from the subscription e-commerce business year over year, while
continuing to target Earn-out Adjusted EBITDA (a non-GAAP measure) of
$75 million for the full year 2019.”

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
We regularly review the following key non-GAAP measures to evaluate our
business and trends, measure our performance, prepare financial
projections, allocate resources, and make strategic decisions. We
believe these non-GAAP measures help illustrate the underlying financial
and business trends relating to our results of operations and
comparability between current and prior periods. We also use these
non-GAAP measures to establish and monitor operational goals. However,
these non-GAAP measures are not superior to or a substitute for
prominent measurements calculated in accordance with GAAP. Rather, the
non-GAAP measures are meant to be a complement to understanding measures
prepared in accordance with GAAP.
Adjusted Revenue
Revenue for the quarter ended March 31, 2019 has been negatively
affected by the closure of high-margin accounts with certain
subscription-billing e-commerce merchants. The closure of merchants in
this channel was due to industry-wide changes for enhanced card
association compliance. We refer to adjusted revenue, which excludes
these revenue amounts from the periods presented. We review this
non-GAAP measure to evaluate our underlying revenue and trends.
Gross Profit and Adjusted Gross Profit
The Company’s non-GAAP gross profit metric represents revenue less costs
of merchant card fees and other costs of services. Gross profit margin
is gross profit divided by revenue. We also refer to adjusted gross
profit and adjusted gross profit margin, which excludes gross profit
from certain subscription-billing e-commerce merchants. We review these
non-GAAP measures to evaluate our underlying profit trends.
Adjusted Income from Operations
Income from operations for the quarter ended March 31, 2019 has also
been negatively affected by the closure of the high-margin accounts with
certain subscription-billing e-commerce merchants, as well as the
incurrence of non-recurring expenses largely associated with our July
2018 Business Combination and conversion to a public company, such as
legal, accounting, advisory and consulting expenses plus certain
litigation costs. We refer to adjusted income from operations, which
excludes this income from operations and non-recurring operating
expenses for the periods presented. We review this non-GAAP measure to
evaluate our underlying profitability performance and trends.
EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Earnout Adjusted EBITDA
EBITDA is earnings before interest, income tax, depreciation and
amortization expenses (“EBITDA”). Adjusted EBITDA begins with EBITDA but
further excludes certain non-cash expenses such as equity-based
compensation and fair value adjustments, debt modification costs and
non-recurring expenses such as Business Combination costs, litigation
settlement costs, certain legal services costs, and professional,
accounting and consulting fees. The calculation of Earnout Adjusted
EBITDA includes adjustments for the pro-forma impact of acquisitions, as
well as adjustments to exclude other professional and consulting fees
and certain tax expenses and other adjustments. We review these non-GAAP
EBITDA measures to evaluate our business and trends, measure our
performance, prepare financial projections, allocate resources, and make
strategic decisions.
The reconciliations of Adjusted Revenue, Gross Profit, Adjusted Gross
Profit, Adjusted Income from Operations, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and
Earnout Adjusted EBITDA to the most directly comparable financial
measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP, are shown in
the attached schedules to this press release.
Priority does not provide a reconciliation of forward-looking non-GAAP
financial measures to their comparable GAAP financial measures because
it could not do so without unreasonable effort due to the unavailability
of the information needed to calculate reconciling items and due to the
variability, complexity and limited visibility of the adjusting items
that would be excluded from the non-GAAP financial measures in future
periods. When planning, forecasting and analyzing future periods, the
Company does so primarily on a non-GAAP basis without preparing a GAAP
analysis as that would require estimates for various cash and non-cash
reconciling items that would be difficult to predict with reasonable
accuracy. For example, equity compensation expense would be difficult to
estimate because it depends on the Company’s future hiring and retention
needs, as well as the future fair market value of the Company’s common
stock, all of which are difficult to predict and subject to constant
change. As a result, the Company does not believe that a GAAP
reconciliation would provide meaningful supplemental information about
the Company’s outlook.
