ATLANTA--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Global Payments Inc. (NYSE: GPN) today announced results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2021.
“We are pleased to have delivered the strongest performance in our history in the third quarter despite facing incremental challenges from COVID-19 during the period,” said Jeff Sloan, Chief Executive Officer. “Our businesses continued to demonstrate their resilience, and our results highlight our consistent execution across cycles. As we have throughout the pandemic, we benefit from accelerated digitization across our markets. This quarter provided further proof points that our four-pillared strategy drives differentiated growth.”
Sloan concluded, “Today we are a top quartile software-as-a-service (SaaS) technology company, the leading issuer technology provider and program manager with unique partnerships, and a leading e-commerce and omnichannel acquirer with unmatched virtual and physical presence. And we deliver our technologies with tremendous breadth across developed and attractive growth markets while benefiting from innovation in the ecosystem.”
Strategic Highlights
- Renewed key issuer technology partnerships with CIBC and CITI as a top SaaS provider to the most complex and sophisticated institutions worldwide;
- Significantly expanded the duration and scope of our relationship with PayPal, including support of cryptocurrencies as a leading e-commerce technology partner;
- Selected by Mercedes-Benz Stadium to maximize its connected commerce environment as a leading software and omnichannel enabler;
- Announced plans to launch a two-sided ecosystem with Virgin Money to redefine consumer and merchant digital experiences as a unique network provider;
- Formally entered the B2B market with our acquisition of MineralTree as a leading B2B company;
- Completed the acquisition of Bankia’s merchant services business together with our partners at CaixaBank, deepening our presence in one of the most attractive markets in Europe; and
- Closed the acquisition of Worldline’s PayOne Austrian POS acquiring assets through our Erste joint venture, bringing our distinctive distribution and market-leading technologies at scale to another strong secular growth market.
Third Quarter 2021 Summary
- GAAP revenues were $2.20 billion, compared to $1.92 billion in the third quarter of 2020; diluted earnings per share were $1.01 compared to $0.74 in the prior year; and operating margin was 18.2% compared to 15.1% in the prior year.
- Adjusted net revenues increased 15% to $2.00 billion, compared to $1.75 billion in the third quarter of 2020.
- Adjusted earnings per share increased 28% to $2.18, compared to $1.71 in the third quarter of 2020.

Business Outlook
"We are delighted with the growth we achieved across our businesses despite facing incremental headwinds from the delta variant of COVID-19 in the third quarter. We are also pleased that we delivered consistent performance in our Merchant Solutions business. In particular, our worldwide acquiring businesses generated 19% adjusted net revenue growth compared to 2019, continuing our track record of strong execution and performance," said Cameron Bready, President and Chief Operating Officer.
2021 Outlook
“We are gratified by the strong financial performance we delivered in the third quarter, which exceeded our expectations despite the incremental impact of the pandemic,” said Paul Todd, Senior Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer. “We achieved double digit adjusted net revenue growth, strong adjusted operating margin expansion and impressive adjusted earnings per share growth compared to both 2020 and 2019.”
Todd concluded, “We remain encouraged by the trends we are seeing in our business, and we are increasing the lower ends of our adjusted net revenue and adjusted earnings per share guidance by $10 million and $0.03 per share, respectively. We now expect full year 2021 adjusted net revenue to be in the range of $7.71 billion to $7.73 billion, reflecting growth of 14% to 15%, and adjusted earnings per share to be in a range of $8.10 to $8.20, or growth of 27% to 28% over 2020. This presumes a consistent macroeconomic environment for the remainder of the year with no change to the COVID-19 outlook globally.”

Global Payments’ Board of Directors approved a dividend of $0.25 per share payable December 30, 2021 to shareholders of record as of December 16, 2021.

These forward-looking statements, which are based on current expectations, estimates and projections about the industry and markets in which we operate, and beliefs of and assumptions made by our management, involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions that could significantly affect the financial condition, results of operations, business plans and the future performance of Global Payments. Actual events or results might differ materially from those expressed or forecasted in these forward-looking statements. Accordingly, we cannot guarantee that our plans and expectations will be achieved. Examples of forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements we make regarding guidance and projected financial results for the year 2021; the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business, including estimates of the effects of the pandemic on our revenues, financial operating results and liquidity; the effects of actions taken by us in response to the pandemic; the anticipated benefits of the merger with TSYS (the “Merger’), including the combined company’s plans, objectives, expectations and intentions; timing and completion of anticipated benefits of acquisitions or strategic initiatives; our success and timing in developing and introducing new services; and future financial and operating results. Although we believe the expectations reflected in any forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions, we can give no assurance that our expectations will be attained, and therefore actual outcomes and results may differ materially from what is expressed or forecasted in such forward-looking statements.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
Global Payments supplements revenues, income, operating income, operating margin and EPS determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP by providing these measures with certain adjustments (such measures being non-GAAP financial measures) in this document to assist with evaluating our performance. In addition to GAAP measures, management uses these non-GAAP financial measures to focus on the factors the company believes are pertinent to the daily management of our operations. Management believes adjusted net revenue more closely reflects the economic benefits to the company's core business and allows for better comparisons with industry peers. Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures, together with other metrics, to set goals for and measure the performance of the business and to determine incentive compensation. Adjusted net revenue, adjusted operating income, adjusted operating margin, adjusted net income and adjusted EPS should be considered in addition to, and not as substitutes for, revenues, operating income, net income and EPS determined in accordance with GAAP. The non-GAAP financial measures reflect management's judgment of particular items, and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.
Adjusted net revenue excludes gross-up related payments associated with certain lines of business to reflect economic benefits to the company. On a GAAP basis, these payments are presented gross in both revenues and operating expenses. Adjusted operating income, adjusted net income and adjusted EPS exclude acquisition-related amortization expense, share-based compensation expense, acquisition and integration expense and certain other items, such as unusual, direct and discrete costs due to the global pandemic, specific to each reporting period as more fully described in the accompanying reconciliations in Schedules 6 and 7. Adjusted operating margin is derived by dividing adjusted operating income by adjusted net revenue. The tax rate used in determining the income tax impact of earnings adjustments is either the jurisdictional statutory rate in effect at the time of the adjustment or the jurisdictional expected annual effective tax rate for the period, depending on the nature and timing of the adjustment.
