BROOKFIELD, Wis.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Fiserv, Inc. (NASDAQ: FISV), a leading global provider of payments and financial services technology solutions, today reported financial results for the fourth quarter and full year 2020.
Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2020 GAAP Results
GAAP revenue for the fourth quarter of 2020 of $3.83 billion declined 5% compared to the prior year period, with the Acceptance segment down 7%, the Fintech segment down 1% and the Payments segment down 2%. GAAP revenue for the full year of 2020 of $14.85 billion grew 46% compared to the prior year, with the Acceptance segment up 115%, the Fintech segment down 1% and the Payments segment up 41%. GAAP revenue growth within the Acceptance and Payments segments for the full year of 2020 includes the impact of revenue from acquired First Data Corporation ("First Data") businesses as the financial results of First Data are included in the consolidated results of Fiserv, Inc. from July 29, 2019, the date of acquisition.
GAAP earnings per share was $0.44 in the fourth quarter and $1.40 for the full year of 2020, an increase of 22% and decrease of 18%, respectively, compared to the prior year periods. GAAP operating margin was 13.5% and 12.5% in the fourth quarter and full year 2020, respectively, compared to 11.8% and 15.8% in the fourth quarter and full year 2019, respectively. GAAP earnings per share and operating margin for the full year of 2020 included integration costs and acquired intangible asset amortization from the application of purchase accounting associated with the First Data acquisition, as well as gains from the sale of a 60% interest of the company's Investment Services business ("Investment Services Transaction") and the dissolution of the Banc of America Merchant Services joint venture ("BAMS").
Net cash provided by operating activities increased by 1% to $1.19 billion in the fourth quarter and increased by 48% to $4.15 billion in the full year 2020 compared to the prior year periods. The increase in the full year 2020 was primarily attributable to the First Data acquisition.
“Fiserv delivered terrific financial and operational results in 2020 despite the unprecedented market conditions, demonstrating the strength and resilience of our business,” said Frank Bisignano, President and Chief Executive Officer of Fiserv. “I am incredibly proud of our associates for their unwavering focus on delivering the mission-critical products that help our clients succeed. That focus has enabled us to deliver our 35th consecutive year of double-digit adjusted earnings per share growth.”

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Due to the financial impact of the First Data acquisition, the company's full year 2019 unaudited non-GAAP financial performance measures have been recalculated in this news release on a combined company basis reflecting its reportable segments as realigned during the first quarter of 2020. The full year 2019 combined financial information has been prepared by making certain adjustments to the sum of historical First Data financial information determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") and historical Fiserv financial information determined in accordance with GAAP. The full year 2019 combined financial information includes various estimates and is not necessarily indicative of the operating results of the combined companies had the transaction been completed at the assumed date or of the combined companies in the future. The full year 2019 combined financial information does not reflect any cost savings or other synergies anticipated as a result of the acquisition. In addition, the full year 2019 combined financial information does not reflect the impact of any purchase accounting adjustments that arose from the acquisition as those impacts would be excluded in the preparation of the combined financial information. The unaudited combined financial information is not pro forma information prepared in accordance with Article 11 of Regulation S-X of the Securities and Exchange Commission, and the preparation of information in accordance with Article 11 would result in a significantly different presentation.
The company supplements its reporting of information determined in accordance with GAAP, such as revenue, operating income, operating margin, net income, earnings per share and net cash provided by operating activities, with "adjusted revenue," "internal revenue," "internal revenue growth," "adjusted operating income," "adjusted operating margin," "adjusted net income," "adjusted earnings per share," and "free cash flow." In addition, the company supplements its and First Data’s full year 2019 reporting of information determined in accordance with GAAP with “combined revenue,” “combined operating income,” “combined net income attributable to Fiserv,” “combined earnings per share” and “combined net cash provided by operating activities.” Management believes that providing combined full year 2019 financial information and making adjustments for certain non-cash or other items and excluding certain pass-through revenue and expenses should enhance shareholders' ability to evaluate the company's performance, including providing additional insights into the factors and trends affecting the company's business and, with respect to combined financial information, providing a reasonable basis of comparison with its post-acquisition results. Therefore, the company excludes these items from its GAAP financial measures, and its and First Data's combined full year 2019 financial information, to calculate these unaudited non-GAAP measures. The corresponding reconciliations of these unaudited non-GAAP financial measures to the most comparable GAAP measures are included in this news release, except for forward-looking measures where a reconciliation to the corresponding GAAP measures is not available due to the variability, complexity and limited visibility of the non-cash and other items described below that are excluded from the non-GAAP outlook measures. See page 18 for additional information regarding the company's forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures.
Examples of non-cash or other items may include, but are not limited to, non-cash deferred revenue adjustments arising from acquisitions; non-cash intangible asset amortization expense associated with acquisitions; non-cash impairment charges; severance and restructuring costs; net charges associated with debt financing activities including foreign currency transaction gains or losses, early debt extinguishment and bridge financing costs; merger and integration costs; gains or losses from the sale of businesses; and certain discrete tax benefits and expenses. The company excludes these items to more clearly focus on the factors management believes are pertinent to the company's operations, and management uses this information to make operating decisions, including the allocation of resources to the company's various businesses.
The company adjusts its non-GAAP results to exclude amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets as such amounts are inconsistent in amount and frequency and are significantly impacted by the timing and/or size of acquisitions. Management believes that the adjustment of acquisition-related intangible asset amortization supplements GAAP information with a measure that can be used to assess the comparability of operating performance. Although the company excludes amortization from acquisition-related intangible assets from its non-GAAP expenses, management believes that it is important for investors to understand that such intangible assets were recorded as part of purchase accounting and contribute to revenue generation.
Management believes internal revenue growth is useful because it presents combined adjusted revenue growth including deferred revenue purchase accounting adjustments and excluding the impact of foreign currency fluctuations, acquisitions, dispositions and the company's Output Solutions postage reimbursements. Management believes free cash flow is useful to measure the funds generated in a given period that are available for debt service requirements and strategic capital decisions. Management believes this supplemental information enhances shareholders' ability to evaluate and understand the company's core business performance.
These unaudited non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies and should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for, revenue, operating income, operating margin, net income, earnings per share and net cash provided by operating activities or any other amount determined in accordance with GAAP.

You should consider these factors carefully in evaluating forward-looking statements and are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such statements. The company assumes no obligation to update any forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this news release.

Severance and restructuring costs in both the fourth quarter and full year 2019 include a non-cash impairment charge of $48 million, primarily related to an international core processing platform. |
4 |
Represents amortization of intangible assets acquired through various acquisitions, including customer relationships, software/technology, and trade names. This adjustment does not exclude the amortization of other intangible assets such as contract assets (sales commissions and deferred conversion costs), capitalized and purchased software, and financing costs and debt discounts. See additional information on page 17 for an analysis of the company's amortization expense. |
5 |
Represents losses on early debt extinguishments and other costs associated with the refinancing of certain indebtedness, including that of First Data. Debt financing activities in 2019 include $220 million of early debt extinguishment costs and $98 million of bridge term loan facility expenses, partially offset by $50 million of net currency transaction gains related to foreign currency denominated debt. |
6 |
Represents the earnings attributable to divested businesses and the gain on the associated divestiture transactions, including the sale of a 60% interest in the Investment Services business in February 2020, the dissolution of the Banc of America Merchant Services joint venture in July 2020, and two businesses acquired as part of the First Data acquisition that were sold in October 2019. |
7 |
Represents the company’s share of amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets at its unconsolidated affiliates, as well as the minority interest share of amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets at its subsidiaries in which it holds a controlling financial interest. This adjustment also includes a $14 million net gain on the merger of a joint venture that occurred in the third quarter of 2019. |
8 |
The tax impact of adjustments is calculated using a tax rate of 23%, which approximates the combined company's annual effective tax rate, exclusive of the actual tax impacts associated with the gain on sale of businesses. |
9 |
Represents certain discrete tax items, primarily related to foreign income tax benefits from a subsidiary restructuring in the fourth quarter of 2020, the revaluation of deferred taxes due to a change in the statutory tax rate in the United Kingdom in the third quarter of 2020, and non-deductible transaction costs associated with the acquisition of First Data in 2019. |
10 |
GAAP earnings per share is computed by dividing GAAP net income by the weighted average common shares outstanding - diluted during the period. Combined earnings per share is computed by dividing combined net income attributable to Fiserv by the combined weighted average common shares outstanding - diluted during the period. The full year 2019 combined weighted average common shares outstanding - diluted is computed based on the historical Fiserv weighted average shares outstanding - diluted determined in accordance with GAAP, adjusted to include the Fiserv shares issued as merger consideration and shares subject to First Data equity awards assumed by Fiserv in connection with the First Data acquisition. |

Represents the financial results of First Data prior to the date of acquisition. For the year ended December 31, 2019, this includes the results of First Data from January 1, 2019 through July 28, 2019. |
2 |
Represents the elimination of intercompany revenue and expense between First Data and the company. |
3 |
Represents an adjustment primarily related to the company's joint venture with Bank of America. The Banc of America Merchant Services joint venture (BAMS) was dissolved effective July 1, 2020. The company owned 51% of BAMS and, through June 30, 2020, BAMS' financial results were 100% consolidated into the company's financial statements for GAAP reporting purposes. In connection with the dissolution of the joint venture, the company received a 51% share of the joint venture's value via an agreed upon contractual separation. In addition, the company will continue providing merchant processing and related services to Bank of America for its merchant clients. The non-GAAP adjustment reduces adjusted revenue and adjusted operating income by the joint venture revenue and expense that was not expected to be retained by the company upon dissolution and is partially offset by an increase to processing and services revenue. |
4 |
For all periods presented in the Fintech segment, there were no adjustments to GAAP measures presented and thus the adjusted measures are equal to the GAAP measures presented. |

Internal revenue growth is calculated using actual, unrounded amounts. |
||||||||||||||||||||
1 |
Internal revenue growth is measured as the change in adjusted revenue (see pages 10-12) for the current period excluding the impact of foreign currency fluctuations and revenue attributable to acquisitions (except for full year 2019 revenue attributable to First Data which is presented on a combined company basis) and dispositions, divided by adjusted revenue from the prior period excluding revenue attributable to dispositions. Revenue attributable to dispositions also includes current and prior period revenue associated with merchants retained by the company from the Banc of America Merchant Services joint venture, which was dissolved effective July 1, 2020, transition services revenue within Corporate and Other, and, in the Payments segment, certain adjustments to conform prior period amounts to be consistent with the combined company's presentation. |
2 |
Currency impact is measured as the increase or decrease in adjusted revenue for the current period by applying prior period foreign currency exchange rates to present a constant currency comparison to prior periods. |

The company adjusts its non-GAAP results to exclude amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets as such amounts are inconsistent in amount and frequency and are significantly impacted by the timing and/or size of acquisitions (see corresponding adjustment on page 8). The adjustment for acquired First Data software/technology excludes only the incremental amortization related to the fair value purchase accounting allocation. Management believes that the adjustment of acquisition-related intangible asset amortization supplements the GAAP information with a measure that can be used to assess the comparability of operating performance. Although the company excludes amortization from acquisition-related intangible assets from its unaudited non-GAAP expenses, management believes that it is important for investors to understand that such intangible assets were recorded as part of purchase accounting and contribute to revenue generation. Amortization of intangible assets that relate to past acquisitions will recur in future periods until such intangible assets have been fully amortized. Any future acquisitions may result in the amortization of additional intangible assets. |

Full Year Forward-Looking Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Reconciliations of unaudited non-GAAP financial measures to the most comparable GAAP measures are included in this news release, except for forward-looking measures where a reconciliation to the corresponding GAAP measures is not available due to the variability, complexity and limited visibility of these items that are excluded from the non-GAAP outlook measures. The company’s forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures, including internal revenue growth and adjusted earnings per share are designed to enhance shareholders’ ability to evaluate the company’s performance by excluding certain items to focus on factors and trends affecting its business. The company's internal revenue growth outlook for 2021 includes deferred revenue purchase accounting adjustments and excludes the impact of foreign currency fluctuations, acquisitions, dispositions and the impact of the company's Output Solutions postage reimbursements. The company's adjusted earnings per share outlook for 2021 excludes certain non-cash or other items such as non-cash intangible asset amortization expense associated with acquisitions; non-cash impairment charges; merger and integration costs; severance and restructuring costs; gains or losses from the sale of businesses; and certain discrete tax benefits and expenses, and includes non-cash deferred revenue purchase accounting adjustments. The company estimates that amortization expense in 2021 with respect to acquired intangible assets will approximate the amount incurred in 2020. Other adjustments to the company’s financial measures that have been incurred in 2020 are presented on page 8; however, they are not necessarily indicative of adjustments that may be incurred in 2021. Estimates of these impacts and adjustments on a forward-looking basis are not available due to the variability, complexity and limited visibility of these items.
