Forward-Looking Statements

This quarterly report on Form 10-Q contains statements about future events and expectations that constitute forward-looking statements. We intend such forward-looking statements to be covered by the safe harbor provisions for forward-looking statements contained in Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Forward-looking statements are based on our current beliefs, assumptions, estimates and expectations, taking into account the information currently available to us and are not guarantees of future results or performance. None of the forward-looking statements in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q are statements of historical fact. Forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties that may cause our actual results to differ materially from the expectations of future results we express or imply in any forward-looking statements, and you should not place undue reliance on such statements. Factors that could contribute to these differences include the following: (1) our ability to anticipate and respond to changing industry trends and the needs and preferences of our customers and consumers; (2) the impact of substantial and increasingly intense competition; (3) the impact of changes in the competitive landscape, including disintermediation from other participants in the payments chain; (4) the effects of global economic, political and other conditions; (5) our compliance with governmental regulations and other legal obligations, particularly related to privacy, data protection and information security, and consumer protection laws; (6) our ability to protect our systems and data from continually evolving cybersecurity risks or other technological risks; (7) failures in our processing systems, software defects, computer viruses and development delays; (8) degradation of the quality of the products and services we offer, including support services; (9) risks associated with our ability to successfully complete, integrate and realize the expected benefits of acquisitions; (10) continued consolidation in the banking and payment services industries, including the impact of the combination of Banco Popular and Grupo Santander and the related bank branch consolidations, (11) increased customer, referral partner, or sales partner attrition; (12) the incurrence of chargebacks; (13) failure to maintain or collect reimbursements; (14) fraud by merchants or others; (15) the failure of our third-party vendors to fulfill their obligations; (16) failure to maintain merchant and sales relationships and financial institution alliances; (17) ineffective risk management policies and procedures; (18) our inability to retain smaller-sized merchants and the impact of economic fluctuations on such merchants, (19) damage to our reputation, or the reputation of our partners; (20) seasonality and volatility; (21) our inability to recruit, retain and develop qualified personnel; (22) geopolitical and other risks associated with our operations outside of the United States; (23) any decline in the use of cards as a payment mechanism or other adverse developments with respect to the card industry in general; (24) increases in card network fees; (25) failure to comply with card networks requirements; (26) a requirement to purchase our eService subsidiary in Poland; (27) changes in foreign currency exchange rates; (28) future impairment charges; (29) risks relating to our indebtedness, including our ability to raise additional capital to fund our operations on economized terms or at all and exposure to interest rate risks; (30) changes to, or the potential phasing out of, LIBOR; (31) restrictions imposed by our credit facilities and outstanding indebtedness; (32) participation in accelerated funding programs; (33) failure to enforce and protect our intellectual property rights; (34) failure to comply with, or changes in, laws, regulations and enforcement activities, including those relating to corruption, anti-money laundering, data privacy and financial institutions; (35) impact of new or revised tax regulations; (36) legal proceedings; (37) our dependence on distributions from EVO, LLC (as defined in Part I – Financial Information—“Financial Statements Introductory Note”) to pay our taxes and expenses, including certain payments to the Continuing LLC Owners (as defined in Note 18, “Shareholders’ Equity,” in the notes to the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements) and, in the event that any tax benefits are disallowed, our inability to be reimbursed for payments made to the Continuing LLC Owners; (38) our organizational structure, including benefits available to the Continuing LLC Owners that are not available to holders of our Class A common stock to the same extent; (39) the risk that we could be deemed an investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended; (40) the significant influence the Continuing LLC Owners continue to have over us, including control over decisions that require the approval of stockholders; (41) certain provisions of Delaware law and antitakeover provisions in our organizational documents could delay or prevent a change of control; (42) the effect of the Jumpstart our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”) which allows us to reduce our SEC disclosure and postpone compliance with certain laws and regulations intended to protect investors; (43) the impact of no longer qualifying as an “emerging growth company” under the JOBS Act after December 31, 2019; (44) certain provision in our organizational documents, including those that provide Delaware as the exclusive forum for litigation matters and that renounce the doctrine of corporate opportunity; (45) our ability to establish and maintain effective internal control over financial reporting and disclosure controls and procedures; (46) changes in our stock price, including relating to downgrades, analyst reports, and future sales by us or by existing stockholders; and (47) the other risks and uncertainties listed under “Risk Factors” contained in Part II of this quarterly report on Form 10-Q.

EVO PAYMENTS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(1)Description of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

(a)Description of Business

EVO Payments, Inc. (“EVO, Inc.” or the “Company”) is a Delaware corporation whose primary asset is its ownership of approximately 39.6% of the membership interests of EVO Investco, LLC (“EVO, LLC”) as of June 30, 2019. EVO, Inc. was incorporated on April 20, 2017 for the purpose of completing a series of reorganization transactions (the “Reorganization Transactions”), in order to consummate the initial public offering of EVO, Inc.’s Class A common stock (the “IPO”), and to carry on the business of EVO, LLC. EVO, Inc. is the sole managing member of EVO, LLC and operates and controls all of the businesses and affairs conducted by EVO, LLC and its subsidiaries (the “Group”).

The Company is a leading payment technology and services provider, offering an array of innovative, reliable and secure payment solutions to merchants across North America and Europe and servicing over 550,000 merchants across 50 markets. The Company supports all major card types in the markets it serves.

The Company provides card-based payment processing services to small and middle market merchants, multinational corporations, government agencies, and other business and nonprofit enterprises located throughout North America and Europe. These services enable merchants to accept credit and debit cards and other electronic payment methods as payment for their products and services by providing terminal devices, card authorization, data capture, funds settlement, risk management, fraud detection and chargeback services. As of June 30, 2019, the Company operated two reportable segments: North America and Europe.

Since 2012, the Company has acquired and established various interests in entities that expanded the Company’s presence in North America and Europe. Most of these acquisitions were financed by an increase in the Company’s bank credit facilities.

(b)Basis of Presentation and Use of Estimates

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive (loss) income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of changes in equity for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, and the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, reflect all adjustments that are of a normal, recurring nature and that are considered necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the periods shown in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and the applicable rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) for interim financial reporting periods. Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosures have been condensed or omitted in accordance with SEC rules that would ordinarily be required under U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.

The preparation of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Estimates used for accounting purposes include, but are not limited to, valuation of redeemable non-controlling interests (“RNCI”), calculation of income taxes, and determination of the fair value of long-lived assets.

Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

Presentation of Consolidated Balance Sheet and Consolidated Statement of Changes in Equity at December 31, 2018:

The previously presented nonredeemable non-controlling interests, which relate to the portion of equity in a consolidated subsidiary not attributable, directly or indirectly, to the Company as of December 31, 2018, were retrospectively adjusted to reflect the exchange of certain Class C and D shares to Class A shares. The Company has deemed the correction to be immaterial as there is no impact to the Company’s results of operations, cash flows from operating, investing, or financing activities, or consolidated shareholders’ deficit. This immaterial adjustment decreased the previously reported amounts of $178.2 million and ($814.1) million of additional paid-in capital and nonredeemable non-controlling interests, as reported in the consolidated balance sheet and consolidated statement of changes in equity as of December 31, 2018, to $157.5 million and ($793.4) million, respectively.

(c)Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company. As sole managing member of EVO, LLC, the Company exerts control over the Group. In accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 810, Consolidation, EVO, Inc. consolidates the Group’s consolidated financial statements and records the interests in EVO, LLC that it does not own as non-controlling interests. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The Company accounts for investments over which it has significant influence but not a controlling financial interest using the equity method of accounting.

(d)Cash and Cash Equivalents and Merchant Reserves

Cash and cash equivalents include all cash balances and highly liquid securities with original maturities of three months or less when acquired. Cash equivalents consist primarily of overnight money market funds. Cash balances often exceed federally insured limits; however, concentration of credit risk is limited due to the payment of funds on the day following receipt in satisfaction of the settlement process. Included in cash and cash equivalents are merchant reserve cash balances, which represent funds collected from the Company’s merchants that serve as collateral to minimize contingent liabilities associated with any losses that may occur under the respective merchant agreements (“Merchant Reserves”). While this cash is not restricted in its use, the Company believes that maintaining the Merchant Reserves to collateralize merchant losses strengthens its fiduciary standings with its card network sponsors (“Member Banks”) and is in accordance with the guidelines set by the card networks. As of June 30, 2019, and December 31, 2018, Merchant Reserves were $98.7 million and $107.8 million, respectively.

(e)Recent Accounting Pronouncements

New accounting pronouncements issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) or other standard setting bodies that are adopted by the Company are adopted as of the specified effective date. Unless otherwise discussed, management believes that the impact of recently issued standards that are not yet effective will not have a material impact on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements upon adoption. As the Company is considered an emerging growth company under the Jumpstart our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”), adoption of new accounting standards will be consistent with private company effective dates. The Company expects to become a large accelerated filer effective December 31, 2019, at which point the Company will follow the timeline for adoption of new accounting pronouncements for public companies.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-09, Revenue From Contracts With Customers (“ASC 606”), with amendments in 2015, 2016 and 2017. This ASU supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in ASC 605, Revenue Recognition (“ASC 605”). The new standard provides a five-step analysis of transactions to determine when and how revenue is recognized, based upon the core principle that revenue is recognized to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The new standard also requires additional disclosures regarding the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers.

The Company adopted ASC 606 on January 1, 2019, using the modified retrospective method and applying the standard to all contracts not completed on the date of adoption. Results for the reporting period beginning January 1, 2019 are presented under ASC 606, while prior period amounts continue to be reported in accordance with the Company's historic accounting practices under previous guidance.

The primary impact to the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as a result of the adoption of ASC 606 is a change in total net revenue attributable to the presentation of network processing fees on a net basis, driven by changes in principal and agent considerations, as compared to previously being presented on a gross basis. Under the modified retrospective basis, the Company has not restated its comparative unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for these effects. The following table presents the impact of adopting ASC 606 on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019:


	Three Months Ended June 30, 2019						Six Months Ended June 30, 2019
	As reported		Adjustment		Presented without adoption of ASC 606		As reported		Adjustment		Presented without adoption of ASC 606
	(In thousands)						(In thousands)
Revenue	$	122,517	$	27,470	$	149,987	$	234,035	$	51,374	$	285,409
Operating expenses
Cost of services and products, exclusive of depreciation and amortization	$	24,752	$	27,470	$	52,222	$	48,835	$	51,374	$	100,209

The adoption of ASC 606 did not have a material impact on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets and statements of cash flows as of and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019. The Company has expanded its unaudited condensed consolidated financial statement disclosures as required by this new standard. See Note 2, “Revenue” for additional disclosures provided as a result of the adoption of ASC 606.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases, with amendments in 2018 and 2019. This standard aims to increase transparency and comparability among organizations by recognizing lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet and disclosing key information about leasing arrangements. The new standard is effective for public companies for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within those fiscal years; however, the Company has elected to take advantage of the extended transition period as provided for under the JOBS Act. The new standard is therefore effective for the Company for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within those fiscal years, provided that the Company maintains its emerging growth company status through December 31, 2019. Early application of this ASU is permitted for all entities. The Company expects to become a large accelerated filer effective December 31, 2019, at which point the Company will follow the timeline for adoption of new accounting pronouncements for public companies, and will be required to retroactively present the impact of this standard in its annual report as of and for the year ended December 31, 2019. Although the Company is in the process of determining the impact to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, the Company currently expects that most of the existing operating lease commitments will be subject to the new standard and will be recognized as operating lease liabilities and right-of-use assets upon adoption.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement. This update provides clarification and modifies the disclosure requirements on fair value measurement in Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement. The effective date of this update is for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. The adoption of this ASU is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

(2)Revenue

The Company primarily earns revenue from payment processing services, and has contractual agreements with its customers that set forth the general terms and conditions of the service relationship, including line item pricing, payment terms and contract duration. Payment processing service revenue is based on a percentage of transaction value and on specified amounts per transaction or service, and is measured as the amount of consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for providing services. The Company’s core performance obligation is to stand ready to provide continuous access to the Company’s processing services in order to be able to process as many transactions as its customers require on a daily basis over the contract term as the timing and quantity of transactions to be processed is not determinable. Under a stand-ready obligation, the Company’s performance obligation is defined by each time increment rather than by the underlying activities satisfied over time based on days elapsed. Because the service of standing ready is substantially the same each day and has the same pattern of transfer to the customer, the Company has determined that its stand-ready performance obligation comprises a series of distinct days of service.

The Company also earns revenue from the sale and rental of electronic point-of-sale (“POS”) equipment. The sale of equipment to a customer represents the transfer of a promised good that has a benefit to the customer in conjunction with the payment processing services provided by the Company and, therefore, is accounted for as a separate performance obligation.

The Company’s contractual agreements outline the pricing related to payment processing services and pricing related to the sale or rental of POS equipment. The Company allocates the variable fees charged for payment processing services to the day in which it has the contractual right to bill under the contract. Revenue from the sale of POS equipment is recognized at a point in time when the POS equipment is shipped and title passes to the customer. Revenue from the rental of electronic POS equipment is recognized monthly as earned. The revenue recognized from the sale and rental of POS equipment totaled $10.5 million and $11.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. The revenue recognized from the sale and rental of POS equipment totaled $20.2 million and $21.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

EVO PAYMENTS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

Commissions payable to referral and reseller partners are recognized as incurred. The Company does not capitalize costs to obtain contracts with customers or costs incurred to fulfill contracts with customers as such amounts are considered immaterial.

The Company follows the requirements of ASC 606-10, Principal Agent Considerations, which states that the determination of whether a company should recognize revenue based on the gross amount billed to a customer or the net amount retained is a matter of judgment that depends on the facts and circumstances of the arrangement and that certain factors should be considered in determining payment processing service revenue reporting.

The determination of gross versus net recognition for interchange and card network fees, commissions and card network processing costs and other fees requires judgment that depends on whether the Company controls the good or service before it is transferred to the merchant or whether the Company is acting as an agent of a third party.

The Company does not determine interchange rates; they are set by the card networks. The rights of the Company to earn service fee revenue from the receipt of fees from merchants are generated by a negotiated agreement with independent sales organizations (“ISOs”) or other third parties. The ISO or third party acts as supplier of products or services by achieving most of the shared risks and rewards as principal in the merchant agreement; the Company passes the ISO’s share of merchant receipts to them as commissions. Card network processing costs are assessed by the card networks for authorization, settlement and card network access services. The Company collects these amounts through the processing cycle and reimburses the card networks. The Company is not responsible for the fulfillment or acceptance of these services.

The Company recognizes its fees charged to customers net of interchange and card network fees, commissions and card network processing costs and other fees assessed to the Company’s merchant customers by other entities. The Company collects these pass-through charges on behalf of the card issuers and payment networks, and does not have the ability to direct the use of or receive the benefits from the services provided by the card issuers or the payment networks.

The table below presents a disaggregation of the Company’s revenue from contracts with customers by division. The Company’s divisions are defined as follows:

Direct – Includes referral relationships with financial institutions, many of which are long-term and on an exclusive basis. These financial institutions provide the Company with access to their brands, while the Company maintains a direct relationship with merchants in order to drive sales, price negotiation, underwriting, boarding and support processes. The Direct division also includes direct sales capabilities and relationships.

Tech-enabled – Includes partnerships with independent software vendors, integrated software dealers, enterprise resource planning software dealers and eCommerce gateway providers. These partnerships function by way of a technical integration between the Company and the third party in which the third party seamlessly passes information to the Company’s systems in order to streamline the merchant boarding process.

Traditional – Represents the Company’s heritage U.S. portfolio composed primarily of ISO relationships.

(3)Settlement Processing Assets and Liabilities

In certain markets, the Company is a member of various card networks, allowing it to process and fund transactions without third-party sponsorship. In other markets, the Company has Member Banks for whom the Company facilitates payment transactions. These arrangements allow the Company to route transactions under the Member Banks’ control and identification numbers to clear card transactions through card networks.

Funds settlement refers to the process of transferring funds for sales and credits between card issuers and merchants. The standards of the card networks restrict non-members from performing funds settlement or accessing merchant settlement funds and, instead, require that these funds be in the possession of the Member Banks until the merchant is funded. However, in certain markets and in accordance with the terms of the Company’s Bank Sponsorship Agreements with its Member Banks, funds settlement generally follows a net settlement process.

Timing differences, interchange expense, Merchant Reserves and exception items cause differences between the amount the Member Banks receive from the card networks and the amount funded to the merchants. Settlement processing assets and obligations represent intermediary balances arising in the settlement process.

A summary of these amounts are as follows:


	June 30,		December 31,
	2019		2018
	(In thousands)
Settlement processing assets:
Receivable from card networks	$	534,871	$	195,817

(4)Earnings Per Share

On May 22, 2018, EVO, LLC’s limited liability company agreement (the “EVO LLC Agreement”) was amended and restated effective as of May 25, 2018, to, among other things, reclassify all of the then existing membership interests of EVO, LLC into a new single class of common membership interests. Additionally, the Company entered into a series of transactions that resulted in the issuance of Class A common stock, Class B common stock, Class C common stock and Class D common stock to the holders of LLC Interests and commenced the IPO, resulting in the public issuance of additional shares of the Company’s Class A common stock. Earnings per share information prior to May 23, 2018 is not presented since the ownership structure of EVO, LLC is not a common unit of ownership of the Company.

The following table sets forth the computation of the Company's basic and diluted net income (loss) per Class A common share (in thousands, except share and per share data):


	Three Months Ended June 30,		Six Months Ended June 30,		May 23 - June 30

Convertible Class D common stock		12,127,451		14,258,286		24,305,155

Earnings per share information is not separately presented for Class B common stock, Class C common stock and Class D common stock since they have no economic rights to the income or loss of the Company. Class B common stock is not considered when calculating dilutive EPS as this class of common stock may not be exchanged for Class A common stock. Class C common stock and Class D common stock are considered in the calculation of dilutive EPS on an if-converted basis as these classes, together with the related LLC Interests, have exchange rights into Class A common stock that could result in additional Class A common stock being issued. All other potentially dilutive securities are determined based on the treasury stock method. Refer to Note 18, “Shareholders’ Equity,” for further information on the rights of each class of stock.

(5)Tax Receivable Agreement

In connection with the IPO, the Company entered into a Tax Receivable Agreement (the “TRA”) that requires the Company to make payments to the Continuing LLC Owners, as defined in Note 18, “Shareholders’ Equity,” that are generally equal to 85% of the applicable cash tax savings, if any, realized as a result of favorable tax attributes that will be available to the Company as a result of the Reorganization Transactions, exchanges of LLC Interests for Class A common stock, and payments made under the TRA. Payments will occur only after the filing of U.S. federal and state income tax returns and realization of cash tax savings from the favorable tax attributes. Due to net losses attributable to the Company in 2018, there were no realized tax savings attributable to the TRA, therefore no payments have been made related to the TRA obligation.

As a result of the exchange of LLC Interests and shares of Class C common stock and Class D common stock for shares of Class A common stock sold in connection with the IPO, the September 2018 Secondary Offering, the April 2019 Secondary Offering and other member exchanges, through June 30, 2019, the Company’s deferred tax asset and payment liability pursuant to the TRA were approximately $95.5 million and $81.1 million, respectively. The Company recorded a corresponding increase to paid-in capital for the difference between the TRA liability and the related deferred tax asset. The amounts recorded as of June 30, 2019, approximate the current estimate of expected tax savings and are subject to change after the filing of the Company’s U.S. federal and state income tax returns for the year ended December 31, 2019. Future payments under the TRA with respect to subsequent exchanges would be in addition to these amounts.

For the TRA, the cash savings realized by the Company are computed by comparing the actual income tax liability of the Company to the amount of such taxes the Company would have been required to pay had there been no increase to the tax basis of the assets from member exchanges of LLC Interests, and no tax benefit as a result of the Net Operating Losses (“NOLs”) generated by the increase in the Company’s tax basis of the assets in LLC. Subsequent adjustments of the TRA obligations due to certain events (e.g., changes to the expected realization of NOLs or changes in tax rates) will be recognized within other (expense) income in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive (loss) income.

This asset acquisition is presented in the Company’s Europe segment. Equipment and intangible assets acquired consist of card processing equipment, merchant contract portfolios, marketing alliance agreements, and trademarks with useful lives of 3 years, 5 years, 15 years, and 15 years, respectively.

(d)

Nodus Technologies, Inc.

In May 2018, a subsidiary of EVO, Inc. acquired 100% of the outstanding shares of Nodus Technologies, Inc. (“Nodus”) for $18.0 million. The total consideration includes a holdback liability of $0.8 million. Nodus is presented in the Company’s North America segment.

(e)

Federated Payment Systems, LLC/Federated Payment Canada Corp.

In September 2018, a subsidiary of EVO, Inc. acquired the remaining 67% of the outstanding membership interests of Federated Payment Systems, LLC (“Federated US”) and 100% of the outstanding shares of Federated Payment Canada Corporation (“Federated Canada,” together with Federated US, “Federated”) for $38.2 million. The total consideration includes an aggregate holdback liability of $0.5 million. Certain acquisition-related expenses were incurred in conjunction with the Federated acquisition in the amount of $0.4 million. Federated maintains diverse sales channels which will complement the Company’s strategic distribution relationships. As a result of this acquisition, the Company recognized goodwill. Federated is presented in the Company’s North America segment.

Based upon the purchase price, the Company’s understanding of the Federated business and valuation, the allocation is as follows:


	As of the
	acquisition date
	(in thousands)
Tangible assets acquired	$	1,702
Deferred tax liability		(1,357)
Amortizable intangible assets
Trademarks		1,200
Merchant contract portfolios		11,400
Goodwill		33,677
Total net assets acquired	$	46,622

Table of Contents

EVO PAYMENTS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

Intangible assets of $12.6 million have been allocated to amortizable intangible assets consisting of trademarks and merchant contract portfolios, with estimated useful lives of 5 years and 10 years, respectively. The change in the estimated values of amortizable intangible assets is primarily due to obtaining information related to the merchant portfolio acquired from Federated and therefore, revising certain estimates in determining fair value.

On the date of acquisition, the book value of the investment in Federated US was zero. The Company recorded a gain on the acquisition of the unconsolidated investee of $8.4 million to step-up carrying value of the investment to fair value as of the acquisition date. The gain on acquisition of unconsolidated investee was recorded on the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive (loss) income for the year ended December 31, 2018.

Goodwill, totaling $33.7 million, represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net tangible and intangible assets acquired. Goodwill generated from the Federated acquisition is deductible for U.S. income tax purposes.

(f)

ClearONE, S.L.

In October 2018, a subsidiary of EVO, Inc. acquired 100% of the outstanding shares of ClearONE for €5.4 million ($6.3 million based on the foreign exchange rate at the time of the acquisition). The total consideration includes a holdback liability of €0.5 million. ClearONE is presented in the Company’s Europe segment. Equipment and intangible assets consist of card processing, merchant contract portfolios, trademarks, internally developed software, and non-competition agreements with useful lives of 3 to 5 years, 5 years, 5 years, 5 years, and 2 to 3 years, respectively.

(7)Equipment and Improvements

Equipment and improvements consisted of the following:


	Estimated
	Useful
	Lives in	June 30,		December 31,
	Years	2019		2018

Foreign currency translation adjustment			3,983		3,698
Totals		$	95,479	$	103,046

Depreciation expense related to equipment and improvements was $11.3 million and $9.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. Depreciation expense related to equipment and improvements was $21.5 million and $18.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

In the six months ended June 30, 2019, equipment and improvements and accumulated depreciation were each reduced by $6.3 million and $6.3 million, respectively, and in the six months ended June 30, 2018 by $7.5 million and $7.1 million, respectively, primarily related to asset retirements. The Company infrequently sells or disposes of assets that are not fully depreciated, and this activity represents an insignificant portion of the total reduction.

(11)Income Taxes

In accordance with ASC 740, Income Taxes, each interim period is considered integral to the annual period, and tax expense is measured using an estimated annual effective tax rate. An entity is required to record income tax expense each quarter based on its best estimate of the annual effective tax rate for the full fiscal year and use that rate to provide for income taxes on a current year-to-date basis, as adjusted for discrete taxable events that occur during the interim periods. If, however, the entity is unable to reliably estimate its annual effective tax rate, then the actual effective tax rate for the year-to-date may be the best estimate of the entity’s annual effective tax rate. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, the Company determined that it was unable to make a reliable estimate of its annual effective tax rate due to the sensitivity of the rate as it relates to its forecasted full year 2019 results. Therefore, the Company recorded a tax expense and tax benefit for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively based on its actual effective tax rate.

The Company’s effective tax rate (“ETR”) was 380.1% and 21.7% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively. The Company’s ETR was 41.3% and 30.3% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively. The Company recorded a tax benefit in the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 of $(8.2) million as a result of a tax free reorganization to consolidate its foreign operation and reversed a deferred tax liability related to foreign tax withholding on unremitted foreign earnings. The variance in the ETR for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 primarily relates to the mix of U.S. and non-U.S. earnings and related tax expense. The ETR for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 differs from the statutory federal rate primarily due to foreign income taxes, the tax treatment of income attributable to non-controlling interests, the exclusion of tax benefits related to losses recorded in certain foreign operations, and the recognition of the tax benefit from a tax free reorganization. The income attributable to the non-controlling interests is taxable to EVO, LLC’s individual owners other than the Company. Income tax liabilities are incurred with respect to foreign operations whereas income of EVO, LLC in the U.S. flows through and is taxable to EVO, LLC’s owners.

The Company’s deferred tax asset increased from December 31, 2018 to June 30, 2019 primarily due to the increase in the tax basis of the assets of EVO, LLC as a result of exchanges of LLC Interests for Class A common stock of the Continuing LLC Owners.

Management assesses the available and objectively verifiable evidence to estimate whether sufficient future taxable income will be generated to use existing deferred tax assets. A significant piece of objective, negative evidence evaluated was the cumulative loss incurred in certain jurisdictions over the preceding twelve quarters ended June 30, 2019. Such objective evidence limits the ability to consider other subjective evidence such as the Company’s projections of future growth. On the basis of this assessment, valuation allowances were established in the current and prior periods to reduce the carrying amount of deferred tax assets to an amount that is more likely than not to be realized in certain European jurisdictions. Release of a valuation allowance would result in the realization of all or a portion of the related deferred tax assets and a decrease to income tax expense for the period in which the release is recorded. Based on the Company’s assessment, no significant changes to the Company’s valuation allowances were recorded during the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018.

(12)Long-Term Debt and Lines of Credit

The Company has entered into a first lien senior secured credit facility and a second lien senior secured credit facility pursuant to a credit agreement dated December 22, 2016, and amended on October 24, 2017, April 3, 2018, and June 14, 2018 (the “Senior Secured Credit Facilities”).

(14)Redeemable Non-controlling Interests

The Company owns 66% of eService, the Company’s Polish subsidiary. The eService shareholders’ agreement includes a provision whereby PKO Bank Polski, beginning on January 1, 2018, has the option to compel the Company to purchase 14% of the shares of eService held by PKO Bank Polski, at a price per share based on their fair value. Commencing on January 1, 2020, PKO Bank Polski may exercise an option to sell all of its remaining shares of eService to the Company. Because the exercise of this option is not solely within the Company’s control, the Company has classified this interest as RNCI and presents the redemption value as temporary within the mezzanine equity section of the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. The change in fair value at each measurement date is recorded with a corresponding adjustment to accumulated deficit, nonredeemable non-controlling interests, and redeemable non-controlling interests.

As of June 30, 2019, EVO, Inc. owns 39.6% of the outstanding LLC Interests of EVO, LLC. The EVO, LLC operating agreement includes a provision whereby Blueapple may deliver a sale notice to EVO, Inc., upon receipt of which EVO, Inc. will use its commercially reasonable best efforts to pursue a public offering of shares of its Class A common stock and use the net proceeds therefrom to purchase LLC Interests from Blueapple. Upon receipt of such a sale notice, the Company may elect, at the Company’s option (determined solely by its independent directors (within the meaning of the rules of the NASDAQ stock market (“Nasdaq”)) who are disinterested), to cause EVO, LLC to instead redeem the applicable LLC Interests for cash; provided that Blueapple consents to any election by the Company to cause EVO, LLC to redeem the LLC Interests based on the fair value of the Company’s Class A common shares on such date. Because this option is not solely within the Company’s control, the Company has classified this interest as RNCI and reports the redemption value as temporary within the mezzanine equity section of the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. The change in fair value at each measurement date is recorded with a corresponding adjustment to accumulated deficit and nonredeemable non-controlling interests.

The following table details the components of RNCI for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and for the year ended December 31, 2018:

Total	$	(779,822)	$	—	$	(132,296)	$	(912,118)

Cash equivalents consist of a money market fund that is valued using a market price in an active market (Level 1). Level 1 instrument valuations are obtained from real‑time quotes for transactions in active exchange markets involving identical assets.

Contingent consideration relates to potential payments that the Company may be required to make associated with acquisitions. To the extent that the valuation of these liabilities are based on inputs that are less observable or not observable in the market, the determination of fair value requires more judgment. Accordingly, the degree of judgment exercised in determining fair value is greatest for measures categorized in Level 3.

In the determination of the fair value of the RNCI in eService, the Company used an income approach based on internal forecasts of expected future cash flows. Significant unobservable inputs included the Weighted Average Cost of Capital (“WACC”) used to discount the future cash flows, which was 15.5%, based on the markets in which the business operates and growth rate used within the future cash flows, which were between 3.0% and 10.4%, based on historic trends, current and expected market conditions, and management’s forecast assumptions. A future increase in the WACC would result in a decrease in the fair value of RNCI in eService. The fair value of the RNCI in Blueapple is derived from the closing stock price of the Company’s Class A common stock on the last day of the period.

Organizational structure subsequent to the Reorganization Transactions

EVO, Inc. is a holding company and its principal asset is the LLC Interests in EVO, LLC held by the Company. As the sole managing member of EVO, LLC, the Company operates and controls all of the business and affairs of EVO, LLC and its subsidiaries. Although EVO, Inc. has a minority economic interest in EVO, LLC, the Company has the sole voting interest in, and controls the management of, EVO, LLC. Therefore, EVO, Inc. has consolidated the financial results of EVO, LLC and its subsidiaries.

The Company has four classes of common stock outstanding: Class A common stock, Class B common stock, Class C common stock and Class D common stock. The voting and economic rights associated with the Company’s classes of common stock are summarized in the following table:


Class of Common Stock	Holders	Voting rights*	Economic rights

Class A common stock	Public, MDP, Executive Officers, and Current and Former Employees	One vote per share	Yes
Class B common stock	Blueapple	15.9%	No
Class C common stock	Executive Officers	3.5 votes per share, subject to aggregate cap	No
Class D common stock	MDP and Current and Former Employees	One vote per share	No

*Subject to certain ownership requirements, on the third anniversary of the consummation of the IPO, the voting rights of the Company’s Class B common stock will cease and each share of the Company’s Class C common stock will automatically convert into a share of the Company’s Class D common stock.

Blueapple has a sale right under the EVO LLC Agreement providing that, upon the receipt of a sale notice from Blueapple, the Company will use its commercially reasonable best efforts to pursue a public offering of shares of Class A common stock and use the net proceeds therefrom to purchase LLC Interests from Blueapple. Upon the Company’s receipt of such a sale notice, the Company may elect, at its option (determined solely by its independent directors (within the meaning of the rules of Nasdaq) who are disinterested), to cause EVO, LLC to instead redeem the applicable LLC Interests for cash; provided that Blueapple consents to any election by the Company to cause EVO, LLC to redeem the LLC Interests.

Continuing LLC Owners (other than Blueapple) have an exchange right providing that, upon receipt of an exchange notice from such Continuing LLC Owners, the Company will exchange the applicable LLC Interests from such Continuing LLC Owners for newly issued shares of its Class A common stock on a one-for-one basis pursuant to an exchange agreement (the “Exchange Agreement”). Upon its receipt of such an exchange notice, the Company may elect, at its option (determined solely by its independent directors (within the meaning of the rules of Nasdaq)) who are disinterested, to cause EVO, LLC to instead redeem the applicable LLC Interests for cash; provided that such Continuing LLC Owners consents to any election by the Company to cause EVO, LLC to redeem the LLC Interests. In the event that Continuing LLC Owners do not consent to an election by the Company to cause EVO, LLC to redeem the LLC Interests, the Company is required to exchange the applicable LLC Interests for newly issued shares of Class A common stock.

If the Company elects to cause EVO, LLC to redeem LLC Interests in lieu of exchanging LLC Interests for newly issued shares of its Class A common stock, the Company will offer the other Continuing LLC Owners the right to have their respective LLC Interests redeemed in an amount up to such person’s pro rata share of the aggregate LLC Interests to be redeemed. The Company is not required to redeem any LLC Interests from Blueapple or any other Continuing LLC Owners in response to a sale notice from Blueapple if the Company elects to pursue, but is unable to complete, a public offering of shares of its Class A common stock.

Continuing LLC Owners also hold certain registration rights pursuant to a registration rights agreement. MDP holds demand registration rights that require the Company to register shares of Class A common stock held by it, including any Class A common stock received upon its exchange of Class A common stock for its LLC Interests. All Continuing LLC Owners (other than Blueapple) hold customary piggyback registration rights, which includes the right to participate on a pro rata basis in any public offering the Company conducts in response to its receipt of a sale notice from Blueapple. Blueapple also has the right, in connection with any public offering the Company conducts (including any offering conducted as a result of an exercise by MDP of its registration rights), to request that the Company use its commercially reasonable best efforts to pursue a public offering of shares of its Class A common stock and use the net proceeds therefrom to purchase a like amount of Blueapple’s LLC Interests.

(19)Stock Compensation Plans and Share-Based Compensation Awards

The Company provides share-based compensation awards to its employees under the 2018 Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan (the “2018 Plan”), which the Company adopted in conjunction with its IPO. The 2018 Plan became effective on May 22, 2018. A total of 7,792,162 shares of the Company’s Class A common stock are reserved for issuance under the 2018 Plan. The 2018 Plan provides for accelerated vesting under certain conditions.

The following table summarizes share-based compensation expense, and the related income tax benefit recognized for share-based compensation awards. Share-based compensation expense is presented within selling, general, and administrative expenses within the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations.

As of June 30, 2019, total unrecognized share-based compensation expense related to unvested stock options was $21.5 million. The weighted average period outstanding for unvested stock options is 3.2 years. Each stock option vests in equal annual installments over a period of four years from grant date, and stock options expire no later than 10 years from the date of grant. For the purpose of calculating share-based compensation expense, the fair value of the stock option grants was determined through the application of the Black-Scholes model with the following assumptions:


	Six Months Ended June 30,
	2019		2018

Expected life (in years)		7.00		7.00
Weighted average risk-free interest rate		2.56%		3.02%
Expected volatility		32.76%		33.99%
Dividend yield		0.00%		0.00%
Weighted average fair value at grant date	$	9.45	$	6.68

The risk-free interest rate is based on the yield of a zero coupon U.S. Treasury security with a maturity equal to the expected life of the stock option from the date of the grant. The assumption for expected volatility is based on the historical volatility of a peer group of market participants as the Company has limited historical volatility. It is the Company’s intent to retain all profits for the operations of the business for the foreseeable future, as such the dividend yield assumption is zero. The Company applied the simplified method in determining the expected life of the stock options as the Company has no historical basis upon which to determine historical exercise periods. The Company based the assumptions of the expected term of the options as the expected term plus half of the remaining life through expiration. All stock options exercised will be settled in Class A common stock.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

This “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” is intended to provide an understanding of our financial condition, cash flow, liquidity and results of operations. This MD&A should be read in conjunction with our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the notes to the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements appearing elsewhere in this Form 10-Q and the Risk Factors included in Part II, Item 1A of this Form 10-Q, as well as other cautionary statements and risks described elsewhere in this Form 10-Q.

The following discussion and analysis reflects the historical results of operations and financial position of EVO, LLC and its consolidated subsidiaries prior to the Reorganization Transactions and that of EVO, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries (including EVO, LLC) following the completion of the Reorganization Transactions. The historical results of operations and financial condition of EVO, LLC prior to the completion of the Reorganization Transactions, including the IPO, do not reflect certain items that affected our results of operations and financial condition after giving effect to the Reorganization Transactions and the use of proceeds from the IPO.

In addition to historical information, the following discussion contains forward-looking statements. Our actual results may differ materially from those contained in or implied by any forward-looking statements as a result of various factors, including those set forth under “Forward-Looking Statements.”

Overview

We are a leading payments technology and services provider offering an array of payment solutions to merchants ranging from small and mid-size enterprises to multinational companies and organizations across North America and Europe. As a fully integrated merchant acquirer and payment processor in over 50 markets and 150 currencies worldwide, we provide competitive solutions that promote business growth, increase customer loyalty and enhance data security in the markets we serve.

Executive overview

Revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2019, decreased 13.0% to $122.5 million from $140.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018. Excluding the $27.5 million impact of the reclassification of network processing fees following the adoption of ASC 606, revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2019 increased $9.1 million to $150.0 million. This increase was driven by a 4.1% increase in Europe segment revenue and an 8.3% increase in North America segment revenue, which was primarily driven by increases in transaction volume, partially offset by unfavorable impacts of foreign currency fluctuations.

Revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2019, decreased 13.1% to $234.0 million from $269.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018. Excluding the $51.4 million impact of the reclassification of network processing fees following the adoption of ASC 606, revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2019 increased $16.2 million to $285.4 million. This increase was driven by a 3.7% increase in Europe segment revenue and a 7.8% increase in North America segment revenue, which was primarily driven by increases in transaction volume, partially offset by unfavorable impacts of foreign currency fluctuations.

North America segment profit for the three months ended June 30, 2019 was $27.7 million, 27.0% higher than the three months ended June 30, 2018. For the three months ended June 30, 2019, the increase in North America segment profit is primarily due to organic growth in Mexico, the U.S. Tech-enabled division and the acquisition of Federated Payment Systems, LLC and Federated Payment Canada Corporation (“Federated”). North America segment profit for the six months ended June 30, 2019 was $42.5 million, 0.3% lower than the six months ended June 30, 2018. For the six months ended June 30, 2019, the decrease in North America segment profit was due to a decline in the U.S. Traditional division primarily offset by organic growth in Mexico and the U.S. Tech-enabled division.

Table of Contents

Europe segment profit for the three months ended June 30, 2019 was $13.6 million, 6.5% lower than the three months ended June 30, 2018. Europe segment profit for the six months ended June 30, 2019 was $23.3 million, 12.6% lower than the six months ended June 30, 2018. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, the decrease in Europe segment profit is primarily due to an increase in selling, general and administrative expenses in Poland related to restructuring, organic growth and the impact of acquisitions.

Recent acquisitions

See Note 6, “Acquisitions” in the notes to the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for information about recent acquisitions.

Our segments

We classify our business into two segments: North America and Europe. The alignment of our segments is designed to establish lines of business that support the geographical markets in which we operate and allow us to further globalize our solutions while working seamlessly with our teams across these markets. Both segments provide businesses with merchant acquiring solutions, including integrated solutions for retail transactions at physical business locations, as well as eCommerce and mobile transactions.

The business segment measurements provided to and evaluated by the segment leaders are computed in accordance with the principles described below:

The accounting policies of the operating segments are the same as those described in the summary of the significant accounting policies.

Segment profit, which is the measure used by our chief operating decision maker to evaluate the performance of and to allocate resources to our segments, is calculated as segment revenue less (1) segment expenses, plus (2) segment income from unconsolidated investees, plus (3) segment other income, net, less (4) segment non-controlling interests. Certain corporate-wide governance functions, as well as depreciation and amortization, and share based compensation expense, are not allocated to our segments.

North America

Our North America segment is comprised of the United States, Canada and Mexico. We distribute our products and services through a combination of bank referrals, a direct sales force, specialized integrated solution companies, sales agents and independent sales organizations (“ISOs”).

Europe

Our Europe segment is comprised of Western Europe (Spain, Germany, Ireland, United Kingdom and Malta) and Eastern Europe (Poland and the Czech Republic). We distribute our products and services through a combination of bank referrals, a direct sales force, specialized integrated solution companies and ISOs. We also provide ATM processing services to a financial institution and third-party ATM providers.

Key financial definitions

Revenue consists primarily of fees derived from the monetary value and number of transactions processed for our merchants, as defined through contractual agreements with the merchants. We also receive revenues related to other fees for certain services and products.

Table of Contents

We follow guidance provided in Accounting Standards Codification 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”), which establishes guidance for whether revenue is recognized based on the gross amount billed to a customer or the net amount retained.

Following the adoption of ASC 606, revenues are presented net of interchange fees paid to issuers, certain fees and assessments paid to the card networks (e.g., Visa, Mastercard, American Express and Discover), as these costs are controlled by the networks in which we effectively act as a clearing house collecting and remitting fees, and commissions paid to our distribution partners. Revenues earned from processing merchant transactions are recognized at the time merchant transactions are processed. These revenues include a rate charged to the merchant based on the percentage of the value of the transaction processed, a rate per transaction or some combination thereof.

Cost of services and products, exclusive of depreciation and amortization consists primarily of fees paid to card networks, front-end and back-end fees paid to third-party network service providers and hardware vendors (such as vendors selling terminals or mobile devices) and payments to third parties for other product offerings. These expenses exclude any depreciation or amortization, which is described below.

Selling, general and administrative consists primarily of sales, customer support, advertising and other administrative costs. Sales expenses are comprised of salaries, commissions for internal sales personnel, payroll-related benefits and office infrastructure expenses. General and administrative expenses are comprised of compensation, benefits and other expenses associated with corporate management, finance, human resources, shared services, information technology and other activities.

Depreciation and amortization consists of depreciation and amortization expenses related to card processing, office equipment, computer software, leasehold improvements, furniture and fixtures, merchant contract portfolios, marketing alliance agreements, finite-lived trademarks, internally developed software, and non-competition agreements.

Interest income consists of interest earned by investing excess cash balances.

Interest expense consists of interest cost incurred from our borrowings and the amortization of financing costs.

Income from investment in unconsolidated investees consists of income earned from the investment in businesses in which we have a minority ownership stake and under which our share in the investees’ financial results are not consolidated for reporting purposes.

Other income consists primarily of other income items not considered part of the normal course of business operations.

Income tax (expense) benefit represents federal, state, local and foreign taxes based on income in multiple domestic and foreign jurisdictions.

Net income attributable to non-controlling interests arises from net income from the non-owned portion of businesses where we have a controlling interest but less than 100% ownership. This represents both the non-controlling interests that are consolidating entities of EVO, Inc., inclusive of income attributable to the Continuing LLC Owners as a result of their proportional ownership of LLC Interests.

Factors impacting our business and results of operations

In general, our revenue is impacted by factors such as global consumer spending trends, foreign exchange rates, the pace of adoption of commerce-enablement and payment solutions, acquisitions and dispositions, types and quantities of products and services provided to enterprises, timing and length of contract renewals, new enterprise wins, retention rates, mix of payment solution types employed by consumers, and changes in card network fees including interchange rates and size of enterprises served. In addition, we may pursue acquisitions from time to time. These acquisitions could result in redundant costs, such as increased interest expense resulting from any indebtedness incurred to finance any acquisitions, or could require us to incur losses as we restructure or reorganize our operations following these acquisitions.

Table of Contents

Seasonality

We have experienced in the past, and expect to continue to experience, seasonality in our revenue as a result of consumer spending patterns. In North America, our revenue has been strongest in our fourth quarter and weakest in our first quarter as many of our merchant categories experience a seasonal lift during the traditional vacation and holiday months. In Europe, our revenue has been strongest in our third quarter and weakest in our first quarter. Operating expenses do not typically fluctuate seasonally.

Foreign currency translation impact on our operations

Our consolidated revenues and expenses are subject to variations caused by the net effect of foreign currency translation on revenues recognized and expenses incurred by our non-U.S. operations. It is difficult to predict the future fluctuations of foreign currency exchange rates and how those fluctuations will impact our unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive (loss) income in the future. As a result of the relative size of our international operations, these fluctuations may be material on individual balances. Our revenues and expenses from our international operations are generally denominated in the local currency of the country in which they are derived or incurred. Therefore, the impact of currency fluctuations on our operating results and margins is partially mitigated.

Key performance indicators

Transactions processed refers to the number of transactions we processed during any given period of time and is a meaningful indicator of our business and financial performance as a significant portion of our revenue is driven by the number of transactions we process. In addition, transactions processed provides a valuable measure of the level of economic activity across our merchant base. In our North America segment, transactions include acquired Visa and Mastercard credit and signature debit, American Express, Discover, UnionPay, PIN-debit, electronic benefit transactions and gift card transactions. In our Europe segment, transactions include acquired Visa and Mastercard credit and signature debit, other card network merchant acquiring transactions, and ATM transactions.

For the three months ended June 30, 2019, we processed 0.3 billion transactions in North America and 0.6 billion transactions in Europe. This represents an increase of 11.6% in North America and an increase of 20.1% in Europe over the three months ended June 30, 2018.

For the six months ended June 30, 2019, we processed 0.5 billion transactions in North America and 1.2 billion transactions in Europe. This represents an increase of 8.8% in North America and an increase of 18.7% in Europe over the six months ended June 30, 2018.

Revenue

Revenue was $122.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019, a decrease of $18.4 million, or 13.0%, compared to revenue of $140.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018. Excluding the $27.5 million impact of the reclassification of network processing fees following the adoption of ASC 606, revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2019 increased 6.5% to $150.0 million. This increase was driven primarily by the impact of acquisitions, organic growth in Mexico, Poland, Ireland, and the U.S. Tech-enabled division, partially offset by the impact of changes in foreign exchange rates.

North America segment revenue was $77.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019, a decrease of $2.2 million, or 2.7%, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2018. Excluding the $8.8 million impact of the reclassification of network processing fees following the adoption of ASC 606, North America segment revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2019 increased 8.3% to $86.5 million. The increase was driven by organic growth in Mexico and the U.S. Tech-enabled division and the acquisition of Federated. North America transactions increased 11.6% for the three months ended June 30, 2019, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2018, primarily driven by organic growth in Mexico and the U.S. Tech-enabled division, partially offset by a decline in transactions in the U.S. Traditional division. Changes in foreign currency exchange rates did not have a significant impact on revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2019.

Europe segment revenue was $44.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019, a decrease of $16.2 million, or 26.5%, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2018. Excluding the $18.7 million impact of the reclassification of network processing fees following the adoption of ASC 606, Europe segment revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2019 increased 4.1% to $63.6 million. The increase was driven by organic growth in Poland, Spain, Ireland and the United Kingdom and an overall 20.1% increase in transactions processed in Europe. These increases were partially offset by changes in foreign currency exchange rates, which decreased reported revenue by $4.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019, as well as increased attrition and decreased merchant referrals related to the Banco Popular branch consolidation in Spain.

Operating expenses

Cost of services and products, exclusive of depreciation and amortization

Cost of services and products, exclusive of depreciation and amortization, was $24.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019, a decrease of $25.6 million, or 50.9%, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2018. Excluding the $27.5 million impact of the reclassification of network processing fees following the adoption of ASC 606, cost of services and products, exclusive of depreciation and amortization for the three months ended June 30, 2019 increased 3.7% to $52.2 million. This increase was due primarily to the increase in transactions processed. Our cost of services and products includes both fixed and variable components, with variable components dependent upon transactions processed, among other secondary measures. The increase in cost was due to the variable component from the increase in transactions processed.

Selling, general and administrative expense

Selling, general and administrative expense was $66.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019, a decrease of $49.3 million, or 42.6%, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2018. The decrease was due primarily to share-based compensation expense incurred in the prior period of $51.4 million related to awards which vested upon the IPO, partially offset by higher salaries and wages due to increased headcount.

Depreciation and amortization

Depreciation and amortization was $22.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019, an increase of $1.9 million, or 9.2%, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2018. This increase was due primarily to purchases of POS terminals to support growth in certain of our international markets and other hardware and software purchases as well as the amortization of intangible assets acquired during the second half of 2018.

Interest expense

Interest expense was $11.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019, a decrease of $10.3 million, or 47.7%, compared to $21.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018. The decrease was due to reductions in outstanding borrowings from the use of IPO proceeds raised in the second quarter of 2018, as well as the September 2018 and April 2019 Secondary Offering, debt extinguishment costs and a prepayment penalty associated with the paydown of the second lien term loan.

Income tax benefit

The Company’s effective tax rate (“ETR”) was 380.1% and 41.3% for the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018. The Company recorded a tax benefit in the three months ended June 30, 2019 of $(8.2) million as a result of a tax free reorganization to consolidate its foreign operation and reversed a deferred tax liability related to foreign tax withholding on unremitted foreign earnings. The variance in the ETR for the three months ended June 30, 2019 primarily relates to the mix of U.S. and non-U.S. earnings and related tax expense. The ETR for the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 differs from the statutory federal rate primarily due to foreign income taxes, the tax treatment of income attributable to non-controlling interests, the exclusion of tax benefits related to losses recorded in certain foreign operations, and the recognition of the tax benefit from a tax free reorganization. The income attributable to the non-controlling interests is taxable to EVO, LLC’s individual owners other than the Company. Income tax liabilities are incurred with respect to foreign operations whereas income of EVO, LLC in the U.S. flows through and is taxable to EVO, LLC’s owners.

Segment performance

North America segment profit was $27.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019, compared to $21.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018. The increase is primarily due to organic growth in Mexico, the U.S. Tech-enabled division and the acquisition of Federated, partially offset by a decline in the U.S. Traditional division. North America segment profit margin was 35.6% for the three months ended June 30, 2019, compared to 27.3% for the three months ended June 30, 2018. Excluding the impact of the $8.8 million reclassification of network processing fees following the adoption of ASC 606, North America segment profit margin for the three months ended June 30, 2019 was 42.1%. The increase in North America segment profit was primarily due to organic growth in Mexico and the U.S. Tech-enabled division, the acquisition of Federated, and on-going operating efficiencies.

Europe segment profit was $13.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019, compared to $14.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018. The decrease is primarily due to an increase in selling, general and administrative expenses in Poland related to restructuring, organic growth and the impact of acquisitions. The Europe segment profit margin was 30.4% for the three months ended June 30, 2019, compared to 23.9% for the three months ended June 30, 2018. Excluding the impact of the $18.7 million reclassification of network processing fees following the adoption of ASC 606, Europe segment profit margin for the three months ended June 30, 2019 was 50.8%.

Corporate expenses not allocated to segments were $8.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019, compared to $13.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018. The decrease in expense is due to a decrease in share-based compensation expense as well as a decrease in professional fees incurred in connection with the IPO during 2018.

Liquidity and capital resources

Overview

We have historically funded our operations primarily with cash flow from operations and, when needed, with borrowings, including under our Senior Secured Credit Facilities. Our principal uses for liquidity have been debt service, capital expenditures, working capital and funds required to finance acquisitions. We expect to continue to use capital to innovate and advance our products as new technologies emerge. We expect these strategies to be funded primarily through cash flow from operations and borrowings from our Senior Secured Credit Facilities, as needed. Short-term liquidity needs will primarily be funded through the revolving credit facility portion of our Senior Secured Credit Facilities. As of June 30, 2019, our capacity under the revolving credit facility portion of our Senior Secured Credit Facilities was $200.0 million, with availability of $164.5 million for additional borrowings. To the extent that additional funds are necessary to finance future acquisitions, and to meet our long-term liquidity needs as we continue to execute on our strategy, we anticipate that they will be obtained through additional indebtedness, equity or debt issuances, or both.

Table of Contents

We have structured our operations in a manner to allow for cash to be repatriated through tax-efficient methods using dividends from foreign jurisdictions as our main source of repatriation. We follow local government regulations and contractual restrictions which regulate the nature of cash as well as how much and when dividends can be repatriated. As of June 30, 2019, cash and cash equivalents of $252.4 million includes cash in the United States of $128.5 million and $123.9 million in foreign jurisdictions. Of the foreign cash balances, $51.6 million is available for general purposes. The remaining $72.3 million is considered settlement and merchant reserves related cash and is therefore unable to be repatriated but not legally restricted.

We do not intend to pay cash dividends on our Class A common stock in the foreseeable future. EVO, Inc. is a holding company that does not conduct any business operations of its own. As a result, EVO, Inc.’s ability to pay cash dividends on its common stock, if any, is dependent upon cash dividends and distributions and other transfers from EVO, LLC. The amounts available to EVO, Inc. to pay cash dividends are subject to the covenants and distribution restrictions in its subsidiaries’ loan agreements.

In connection with our IPO, we entered into an Exchange Agreement with certain of the Continuing LLC Owners, under which these Continuing LLC Owners have the right, from time to time, to exchange their LLC Interests and related shares of EVO, Inc. for shares of our Class A common stock or, at our option, cash. If we choose to satisfy the exchange in cash, we anticipate that we will fund such exchange through cash from operations, funds available under the revolving portion of our Senior Secured Credit Facilities, equity or debt issuances or a combination thereof.

In addition, in connection with the IPO, we entered into a TRA with the Continuing LLC Owners. Although the actual timing and amount of any payments that may be made under the TRA will vary, we expect that the payments that we will be required to make to the Continuing LLC Owners will be significant. Any payments made by us to non-controlling LLC owners under the TRA will generally reduce the amount of overall cash flow that might have otherwise been available to us and, to the extent that we are unable to make payments under the TRA for any reason, the unpaid amounts generally will be deferred and will accrue interest until paid by us.

Under the eService shareholders’ agreement we may be compelled to purchase additional shares at the option of PKO Bank Polski. The execution of this option may adversely affect our liquidity in the future. Refer to Note 14, "Redeemable Non-Controlling Interests," for further discussion on the eService redeemable non-controlling interest.

The following table sets forth summary cash flow information for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018:


	Six Months Ended June 30,
(in thousands)	2019		2018
Net cash (used in) provided by operating activities	$	(62,088)	$	15,084
Net cash used in investing activities		(14,710)		(55,269)
Net cash (used in) provided by financing activities		(20,118)		48,989
Effect of exchange rate changes on cash and cash equivalents		(1,409)		(6,769)
Net (decrease) increase in cash and cash equivalents	$	(98,325)	$	2,035

Operating activities

Net cash used in operating activities was $62.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019, a change of $77.2 million compared to cash provided by operating activities of $15.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018. This decrease was due primarily to the timing of settlement-related assets and liabilities.

Investing activities

Net cash used in investing activities was $14.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019, a change of $40.6 million, compared to net cash used in investing activities of $55.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018. The decrease is primarily due to a decrease in POS terminal purchases, a decrease in acquisition-related investments during 2019, as compared to the same period in 2018 and receipt of Visa Europe deferred cash consideration during 2019.

Table of Contents

We purchased $13.3 million in equipment and improvements during the six months ended June 30, 2019, a change of $12.7 million, compared to $26.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018. The decrease was due primarily to terminals purchased during the fourth quarter of 2018 to support Poland’s cashless program and growth in Mexico terminal placements. Capital expenditures of $8.8 million during the six months ended June 30, 2019, primarily relate to the purchase of POS terminals that are installed at merchant locations outside of the United States. As is customary in those markets, we provide POS terminal hardware to merchants and charge associated fees related to this hardware. Additionally, our capital expenditures include hardware and software necessary for our data centers, processing platforms, and information security initiatives.

Financing activities

Net cash used in financing activities was $20.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019, a change of $69.1 million, compared to net cash provided by financing activities of $49.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018. This decrease was primarily due to lower net proceeds from long-term debt in 2019, as compared to the same period in 2018, the April 2019 Secondary Offering proceeds, the satisfaction of the deferred purchase price in the second quarter of 2018 and the 2018 acquisition of Nationwide Payment Solutions, LLC, offset by the IPO proceeds in 2018.

Senior Secured Credit Facilities

We are party to a borrowing arrangement, referred to as our Senior Secured Credit Facilities, which includes a first lien senior secured credit facility, comprised of a $200.0 million revolving credit facility maturing in June 2023, and a $665.0 million term loan maturing in December 2023. In addition, our Senior Secured Credit Facilities also provide us with the option to access incremental credit facilities, refinance the loans with debt incurred outside our Senior Secured Credit Facilities and extend the maturity date of the revolving loans and term loans, subject to certain limitations and terms.

For additional discussion regarding our long-term debt instruments, see Note 12, “Long-Term Debt and Lines of Credit” in the notes to our accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

Settlement Lines of Credit

We have specialized lines of credit which are restricted for use in funding settlement. The settlement lines of credit generally have variable interest rates and are subject to annual review. As of June 30, 2019, we had $26.1 million outstanding under these lines of credit with additional capacity of $109.6 million as of June 30, 2019 to fund settlement. The weighted average interest rate on these borrowings was 4.43% at June 30, 2019.

Contractual obligations

Other than changes which occur in the ordinary course of business, as of June 30, 2019, there were no significant changes to the contractual obligations reported at December 31, 2018 in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.

Off-balance sheet arrangements

As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the Company did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements, except for operating leases entered into in the normal course of business.

Critical accounting policies

The Company’s critical accounting policies have not changed, except as noted below, from those reported as of December 31, 2018 in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.

Table of Contents

Refer to Note 1, “Description of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” and Note 2, “Revenue Recognition” in the notes to the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for information on the Company’s revenue recognition policy and the Company’s adoption of ASC 606, Revenue From Contracts With Customers.

New accounting pronouncements

For information regarding new accounting pronouncements, and the impact of these pronouncements on our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, if any, refer to Note 1, “Description of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” in the notes to the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

Inflation

While inflation may impact our revenue and expenses, we believe the effects of inflation, if any, on our results of operations and financial condition have not been significant. However, there can be no assurance that our results of operations and financial condition will not be materially impacted by inflation in the future.

JOBS Act

We currently qualify as an “emerging growth company” under the JOBS Act, which enables us to postpone complying with certain reporting and other obligations under securities laws. In addition, Section 102 of the JOBS Act provides that an emerging growth company can take advantage of the extended transition period provided in Section 7(a)(2)(B) of the Securities Act for complying with new or revised accounting standards. We are electing to delay the adoption of new or revised accounting standards, and as a result, we may not comply with new or revised accounting standards on the relevant dates on which adoption of such standards is required for non-emerging growth companies. As a result, our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements may not be comparable to companies that comply with new or revised accounting pronouncements as of public company effective dates.

Effective December 31, 2019, the Company expects to become a large accelerated filer and will no longer qualify as an “emerging growth company” under the JOBS Act. At such time, the Company will no longer be able to postpone compliance with certain regulations and disclosure requirements and will follow the timeline for adoption of new accounting pronouncements for public companies. In particular, the Company will be required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404(b) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES OF MARKET RISKS

Our future income, cash flows and fair values relevant to financial instruments are subject to risks relating to interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates.

Interest rate risk

We are subject to interest rate risk in connection with our long-term debt and settlement facilities, which have variable interest rates. The interest rates on these facilities are based on a fixed margin plus a market interest rate, which can fluctuate accordingly but is subject to a minimum rate. Interest rate changes could impact the amount of our interest payments, and accordingly, our future earnings and cash flows, assuming other factors are held constant.

As of June 30, 2019, we had approximately $686.9 million of variable rate debt, none of which was subject to an interest rate hedge. In the future, the interest rate may increase and we may be subject to interest rate risk. Based on the amount outstanding on our Senior Secured Credit Facilities on June 30, 2019, an increase of 100 basis points in the applicable interest rate would increase our annual interest expense by approximately $6.9 million. A decrease of 100 basis points in the applicable rate (assuming such reduction would not be below the minimum rate) would reduce our annual interest expense by approximately $6.9 million.

Table of Contents

Foreign currency risk

We are exposed to changes in foreign currency rates as a result of our significant foreign operations. Revenue and income generated by international operations will increase or decrease compared to prior periods as a result of changes in foreign currency exchange rates. There has been no significant change in our exposure to market risk during the quarter ended June 30, 2019. For additional detail regarding our exposure to foreign currency risk, refer to Part II, Item 7A, “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures of Market Risks” in in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, management has evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) or 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, (the “Exchange Act”) as of June 30, 2019. Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of June 30, 2019, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to ensure information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms and is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures will prevent all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, with the Company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error and mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people or by management override of controls.

The design of any system of controls also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Over time, a control may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or because the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and may not be detected

Changes in internal control over financial reporting

There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the six months ended June 30, 2019 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
