Sponsored by Businesswire

Usio, Inc. (Nasdaq:USIO), a leading FinTech company that operates a full stack of integrated, cloud-based electronic payment and embedded financial solutions, today announced financial results for the fourth quarter and year 2022, which ended December 31, 2022.

Louis Hoch, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Usio, said, “Usio ended the year on a high note, as revenue in the fourth quarter was a record, as well as our tenth consecutive quarter of quarterly revenue growth, which led to our sixth consecutive year of record revenue. Revenue for the year also met our guidance. For the quarter, revenue growth accelerated sequentially from the third quarter in our ACH, Prepaid, and Output Solution businesses as we generate strong momentum that we expect will propel accelerated revenue growth. We also posted record gross profits in the fourth quarter, in part due to the success of our prepaid business, which generated strong residual revenues from large, completed contracts. This led to $1.0 million of positive Adjusted EBITDA in the quarter.1

Mr. Hoch continued, “Growth in both our Prepaid and Output Solutions businesses was very strong in both the quarter and the year. We expect Output Solutions to continue to generate attractive growth in 2023 as we potentially implement one of our largest contracts, expand capacity and implement new technology that will enable our services and solutions to be more efficient and effective. We expect that prepaid revenues and margins should almost double in the upcoming year as we anticipate generating approximately $10-12 million in revenue on programs where we have fulfilled our contractual obligations. The Card business grew, albeit slowly, in 2022 due to customers delaying the start of new implementations, many of which appear to be now ramping up. Our Credit Card business segment is also being integrated into prepaid and ACH programs, a feature that is being well received by many of our customers. Our ACH business was adversely impacted by disruption in the cryptocurrency market in 2022, which began affecting a large customer in the second quarter and continued throughout the remainder of the year. Our business has recovered from this disruption, with strong growth in our returned checks business, and plans to capitalize on any economic weakness that increases activity in lending markets, which will help resume growth in the second half of the year. Absent the ACH business generated from the cryptocurrency market, our ACH business transaction volume grew 46%, dollars processed grew 18%, and returned checks processed went up 45%.”

“Despite a number of headwinds throughout 2022, we grew the business, maintained our financial strength, and invested in strengthening the organization in preparation of what we see as another year of outstanding growth and opportunity. The year is already off to a great start, with new customers like the County of Los Angeles, MoviePass and tremendous returns expected from the success of large prepaid programs, where much of our economics were delayed until the contracts were completed. We are extremely excited by the prospect of further growth as we continue to build value for our shareholders.”

The Company ended the year in a strong financial position, with positive cash flow achieved once again during the fourth quarter. During the year, the company repurchased approximately 507,000 of its own shares under its Board approved buyback program, which primarily accounts for the change in the company’s cash position over the course of 2022. Usio intends to continue to utilize its financial strength to enhance its growth initiatives and maintain its strong business momentum across all business segments, both in terms of enhancing its leading technology as well as expanding its marketing initiatives.

Processing and Transaction Volumes

For the Fourth Quarter, total payment dollars processed through all payment channels were $1.2 billion, down compared to 2021’s fourth quarter, mainly attributable to our exit from the cryptocurrency market, which also resulted in a decrease in total payment transactions processed to 9.5 million.

In our Card segment, dollars processed were up 3% and transactions processed were up 49% from the 2021 quarter. Prepaid Card Load Volume was down 23%, transactions processed were down 44%, and purchase dollars processed were down 17% from the same quarter in 2021, as government assistance programs for the COVID-19 pandemic have essentially wound down from their record highs in 2021. ACH electronic check transaction volume was down 32%, electronic check dollars processed were down 67%, and return check transactions processed were down 5% compared to 2021. Absent the ACH business generated from the cryptocurrency market in Q4 of 2022, our ACH business transaction volume grew 35%, dollars processed grew 4%, and returned checks processed went up 10% as compared to 2021. Transactions/pieces processed at Output Solutions were up 32% from the same period in 2021.

For the year, total dollars processed were $7.2 billion, down 24% due to our exit from crypto. Total transactions processed for the year 2022 were 40.8 million, a new full year record and up 16% from full year 2021.

Card dollars processed were up 10% and transactions processed were up 44% over 2021. Compared to the previous year, prepaid card load volumes were up 14%, transactions processed were up 39%, and purchase volume was up 23%. Full year load volumes, transactions, and purchase volumes were records. ACH electronic check transaction volume was down 6%, electronic check dollars processed were down 30%, and returned check transactions processed were up 31% for the year. Absent the ACH business generated from the cryptocurrency market in 2022, our ACH business transaction volume grew 46%, dollars processed grew 18%, and returned checks processed went up 45% as compared to 2021. Transactions/pieces processed at Output Solutions were up 28% over 2021 and equated to over 28.5 million pieces processed in the year.

Share Repurchase Program

For the quarter, the company repurchased approximately 181,000 shares at a cost of approximately $340,000, with an average per share cost of $1.88. Since the initiation of the program on May 13, 2022, the Company has purchased approximately 507,000 shares at a cost of approximately $1,115,000, with an average per share cost of $2.20.

Fiscal 2023 Guidance

The Company continues to expect strong 18-20% growth in revenue in 2023 while also anticipating positive operating cash flows and Adjusted EBITDA1. Guidance is conditioned on no appreciable deterioration in economic conditions.

Fourth Quarter 2022 Financial Summary

Revenues were $18.7 million for the fourth quarter, up 7% compared to $17.4 million in the same period last year.

Revenue growth was primarily attributable to a 27% increase in Output solutions revenues, and a 31% increase in Prepaid revenues compared to the same period last year.

Gross profits were $4.7 million, a quarterly record, and up 3% from $4.6 million for the same period last year. Gross margins were 25.1% compared to 26.2% in the same period last year. Gross margins in the quarter primarily reflect a shift to a higher proportion of revenues from our less profitable business lines and a decline in our most profitable business unit, ACH and complementary services.

The Company was nearly breakeven for the quarter, with an operating loss of $(90,814), compared to an operating loss of $(1,497), largely unchanged from the same period last year.

Adjusted EBITDA1 was a positive $1.0 million in the quarter, up approximately $1.6 million on a sequential basis, but down $0.2 million from $1.3 million in the same period a year ago.

Net loss for the fourth quarter of 2022 was $0.15 million, or $(0.01) per share, compared to net income of $0.04 million or $0.00 per share for the same period last year.

Usio continues to be in solid financial condition with $5.7 million in cash and cash equivalents and no significant debt at December 31, 2022.

Revenue growth was primarily attributable to a $3.6 million, or 24%, increase in Output Solutions revenues, attributable primarily to the success of cross-selling efforts and the conversion of pipeline opportunities into programs. In addition, prepaid revenues were up 39%, driven by the success of our disbursement program partnership, including the significant increase in revenues recognized in one of its largest programs.

Gross profit for the year ended December 31, 2022 was $14.6 million, down 7% from $15.6 million for the same period in 2021. Gross margins were 21.0% for the year ended December 31, 2022 compared to 25.2% in the same period in 2021, generally reflecting a shift in business mix over the year.

Profitability for the full year 2022 was adversely impacted by the loss of one of the Company’s largest customers, the disruption to efficiency caused thereby, as well as other macroeconomic factors. The Company reported a $5.2 million operating loss for the year ended December 31, 2022 compared to a $0.2 million operating loss for the same period of 2021, due to the decline in gross profits and increases in SG&A expense. The Company reported an Adjusted EBITDA1 loss of $0.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2022, compared to a positive $4.0 million for the same period in the prior year. Net loss for the year ended December 31, 2022 was $5.5 million or $0.27 per share compared to a net loss of $0.3 million or $0.02 per share in the same period last year.

About Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release includes non-GAAP financial measures, EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margins and adjusted operating cash flows, as defined in Regulation G of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The Company reports its financial results in compliance with GAAP, but believes that also discussing non-GAAP financial measures provides investors with financial measures it uses in the management of its business. The Company defines EBITDA as operating income (loss), before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization of intangibles. The Company defines adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA, as defined above, plus non-cash stock option costs and certain non-recurring items, such as costs related to acquisitions. The Company defines adjusted operating cash flow as net cash provided (used) by operating activities, less changes in prepaid card load obligations, customer deposits, merchant reserves and net operating lease assets and obligations. These adjustments to net cash provided (used) by operating activities are not inclusive of any regular expense items, and only include changes in our assets and liabilities accounts on the balance sheet. These measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. Management uses EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, and adjusted operating cash flows as indicators of the Company’s operating performance and ability to fund acquisitions, capital expenditures and other investments and, in the absence of refinancing options, to repay debt obligations.

Management believes EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margins and adjusted operating cash flows are helpful to investors in evaluating the Company’s operating performance because non-cash costs and other items that management believes are not indicative of its results of operations are excluded.

EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margins and adjusted operating cash flow should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. They are not measurements of our financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered as alternatives to revenue, net income, or cash provided (used) by operating activities, as applicable, or any other performance measures derived in accordance with GAAP and may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other businesses. EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margins and adjusted operating cash flow have limitations as analytical tools and you should not consider these Non-GAAP measures in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our operating results as reported under GAAP.
