FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 provides a “safe harbor” for statements that are forward-looking and are not statements of historical facts. This Quarterly Report includes forward-looking statements including, but not limited to, statements about management’s plan and goals and statements about the consummation of pending transactions. Any statements in this Quarterly Report that are not statements of historical facts are forward-looking statements. When used in this Quarterly Report, the words “may,” “could,” “anticipate,” “plan,” “continue,” “project,” “intend,” “estimate,” “believe,” “expect” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements, although not all forward-looking statements contain such words. Forward-looking statements relate to our future plans, objectives, expectations and intentions and are not historical facts and accordingly involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties and other factors that may cause the actual results or performance to be materially different from future results or performance expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. The following factors, among others, could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in forward-looking statements made in this Quarterly Report, in press releases and in oral statements made by our authorized officers: the effects of general economic conditions on fueling patterns as well as payments and transaction processing activity; the effects of the Company’s business expansion and acquisition efforts; the Company’s failure to successfully integrate the businesses it has acquired; the Company's failure to consummate a previously announced transaction, including the acquisition of ExxonMobil's European commercial fuel card program; the failure of corporate investments to result in anticipated strategic value; the impact and size of credit losses; the impact of changes to the Company's credit standards; breaches of the Company’s technology systems and any resulting negative impact on our reputation, liabilities, or loss of relationships with customers or merchants; fuel price volatility; the Company’s failure to maintain or renew key agreements; failure to expand the Company’s technological capabilities and service offerings as rapidly as the Company’s competitors; the actions of regulatory bodies, including banking and securities regulators, or possible changes in banking regulations impacting the Company’s industrial bank and the Company as the corporate parent; the impact of foreign currency exchange rates on the Company’s operations, revenue and income; changes in interest rates; the impact of the Company’s outstanding notes on its operations; financial loss if the Company determines it necessary to unwind its derivative instrument position prior to the expiration of a contract; the incurrence of impairment charges if our assessment of the fair value of certain of our reporting units changes; the uncertainties of litigation; as well as other risks and uncertainties identified in Item 1A of our Annual Report for the year ended December 31, 2013, filed on Form 10-K with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 27, 2014. Our forward-looking statements do not reflect the potential future impact of any alliance, merger, acquisition, disposition or stock repurchases. The forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of the initial filing of this Quarterly Report and undue reliance should not be placed on these statements. We disclaim any obligation to update any forward-looking statements as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. They do not include all information and notes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. However, except as disclosed herein, there have been no material changes in the information disclosed in the notes to consolidated financial statements included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K of WEX Inc. for the year ended December 31, 2013. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements that are included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013, filed with the SEC on February 27, 2014. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (including normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been

included. Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for any future quarter(s) or the year ending December 31, 2014.

Certain prior-year amounts have been reclassified to conform with current year’s presentation. Specifically, UNIK debt previously included in Other liabilities was reclassified to Other debt on the condensed consolidated balance sheet.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued expenses, and other liabilities approximate their respective fair values due to the short-term nature of such instruments. The carrying values of certificates of deposit, NOW deposits, interest-bearing money market deposits, borrowed federal funds and credit agreement borrowings, approximate their respective fair values as the interest rates on these financial instruments are variable. All other financial instruments are reflected at fair value on the condensed consolidated balance sheet.

New Accounting Standards

In April 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-08. Under the new guidance, only disposals representing a strategic shift in operations that has a major effect on the organization's operations and financial results, or a business activity classified as held for sale, should be presented as discontinued operations. Additionally, these amendments expanded the disclosure requirements for discontinued operations that will provide financial statement users with more information regarding the assets, liabilities, income and expenses of discontinued operations. This update is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2014. In addition, early adoption is permitted and the Company has elected to adopt this standard as of April 1, 2014. The adoption of this standard update affects presentation only and, as such, is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, which will supersede most existing revenue recognition guidance under U.S. GAAP. The new revenue recognition standard requires entities to recognize revenue for the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. The new standard is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016. Early application is not permitted. The standard permits the use of either the retrospective or cumulative effect transition method. The Company is evaluating the effect that ASU 2014-09 will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. The Company has not yet selected a transition method.

Business Acquisitions
Acquisition of FastCred
On October 15, 2013, UNIK acquired all of the stock of FastCred, a provider of fleet cards to the heavy truck or over-the-road segment of the Brazilian fleet market, for approximately $12,309, net of cash acquired. The Company purchased FastCred to expand its Fleet Payment Solutions segment. During the fourth quarter of 2013, the Company preliminarily allocated $4,282 of the cost of the acquisition to goodwill and $12,594 to other intangible assets, primarily customer relationships and acquired software. During the first quarter of 2014, the Company obtained additional information to assist in determining the fair values of certain tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the FastCred acquisition date. Based on such information, the Company retrospectively adjusted the fiscal year 2013 comparative information resulting in an increase in goodwill of $1,490, a decrease in intangible assets of $2,253, a decrease in property, equipment and capitalized software of $2, and a decrease in deferred income tax liabilities of $765. There were no changes to the previously reported consolidated statements of operations or statements of cash flows. The valuation of all assets and liabilities have been finalized. The total weighted average useful life of the intangible assets acquired from FastCred is four years for customer relationships and three years for acquired software. Goodwill recorded as a result of the FastCred acquisition is not currently deductible for income tax purposes. No pro forma information has been included in these financial statements as the operations of FastCred for the period that they were not part of the Company are not material to the Company’s revenues, net income or earnings per share.

4.
Reserves for Credit Losses
In general, the Company’s trade receivables provide for payment terms of 30 days or less. The Company does not extend revolving credit to its customers with respect to these receivables. The portfolio of receivables consists of a large group of smaller balance homogeneous amounts that are collectively evaluated for impairment. No customer made up more than six percent of the outstanding receivables at June 30, 2014.
As of June 30, 2014, approximately 97 percent of the outstanding balance of total trade accounts receivable was current and approximately 99 percent of the outstanding balance of total trade accounts receivable was less than 60 days past due. As of June 30, 2013, approximately 97 percent of the outstanding balance of total trade accounts receivable was current and approximately 99 percent of the outstanding balance was less than 60 days past due.The outstanding balance is made up of receivables from a wide range of industries.

Derivative Instruments
The Company is exposed to certain risks relating to its ongoing business operations. Derivative instruments are utilized to manage the Company's commodity price risk. The Company enters into put and call option contracts related to the Company’s commodity price risk, which are based on the wholesale price of gasoline and the retail price of diesel fuel and settle on a monthly basis. These put and call option contracts, or fuel price derivative instruments, are designed to reduce the volatility of the Company’s cash flows associated with its fuel price-related earnings exposure in North America.

Beginning in April 2014, the Company initiated a partial foreign exchange hedging program. The Company uses currency forward contracts to offset the foreign currency impact of balance sheet translation. These derivatives have one month terms. The gains or losses on the currency forward contracts are reported in earnings within the same condensed consolidated statement of income line as the impact of the foreign currency translation, net gain (losses) on foreign currency translations.
Accounting guidance requires companies to recognize all derivative instruments as either assets or liabilities at fair value in the consolidated balance sheet. The Company’s fuel price derivative instruments and foreign currency instruments do not qualify for hedge accounting treatment under current guidance, and therefore, no such hedging designation has been made.
Derivatives Not Designated as Hedging Instruments
For derivative instruments that are not designated as hedging instruments, the gain or loss on the derivative is recognized in current earnings. As of June 30, 2014, the Company had the following put and call option contracts, which are not designated as hedging contracts and settle on a monthly basis: 
 
Aggregate
Notional
Amount
(gallons) (a)
Fuel price derivative instruments – unleaded fuel

Option contracts settling July 2014 – December 2015
19,080

Total fuel price derivative instruments
58,590

(a) 
The settlement of the put and call option contracts is based upon the New York Mercantile Exchange’s New York Harbor Reformulated Gasoline Blendstock for Oxygenate Blending and the U.S. Department of Energy’s weekly retail on-highway diesel fuel price for the month.

Financing and Other Debt
2013 Credit Agreement
On January 18, 2013, the Company entered into the 2013 Credit Agreement. The 2013 Credit Agreement provides for a five-year amortizing $300,000 term loan facility, and a five-year $800,000 secured revolving credit facility with a $150,000 sub-limit for letters of credit. The 2013 Credit Agreement replaced the 2011 Credit Agreement and increased the outstanding amount of the term loan from $185,000 to $300,000 and increased the amount of the revolving loan from $700,000 to $800,000. On January 30, 2013, the revolving loan commitment under the 2013 Credit Agreement was reduced to $700,000. The reduction was required due to the issuance of the Notes described below.
$400 Million Note Offering
On January 30, 2013, the Company completed a $400,000 offering in aggregate principal amount of 4.75 percent senior notes due in 2023 at an issue price of 100.0 percent of the principal amount, plus accrued interest, from January 30, 2013, in a private placement for resale to “qualified institutional buyers” as defined in Rule 144A under the Securities Act, and in offshore transactions pursuant to Regulation S under the Securities Act. The Notes were issued pursuant to the Indenture dated as of January 30, 2013 among the Company, the guarantors listed therein, and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as trustee. The Notes will mature on February 1, 2023, and interest accrues at the rate of 4.750 percent per annum. Interest is payable semiannually in arrears on February 1 and August 1 of each year, commencing on August 1, 2013.
The Company used the net proceeds of this offering to repay the outstanding amount under the revolving portion of its 2013 Credit Agreement and to pay related fees and expenses and for general corporate purposes.
Other debt
UNIK debt
UNIK had approximately $10,108 of debt as of June 30, 2014, and $7,278 of debt as of December 31, 2013. UNIK's debt is comprised of various credit facilities held in Brazil, with various maturity dates. The weighted average annual interest rate was 19.5 percent as of June 30, 2014, and 15.8 percent as of December 31, 2013. This debt is classified in other debt on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets for the periods presented. 
Participation debt
WEX Bank is subject to certain regulatory lending limits to a single customer.  During the second quarter of 2014, WEX Bank entered into an agreement with a third party bank to fund a customer balance that exceeds the lending limit. This participation agreement allows WEX Bank to fund the portion of the customer balance that exceeds the lending limit. The amount of the receivable that is funded by the third party bank is classified as a secured borrowing.  This borrowing carries a variable interest rate of 3-month LIBOR plus a margin of 2.25 percent.  The balance of the participation debt as of June 30, 2014, was $20,000, which is secured by a participation interest in the underlying customer receivable. The participation debt balance will fluctuate on a daily basis based on customer funding needs, and will range from $0 to $45,000. The participation debt agreement will mature on April 1, 2016. This debt is classified in other debt on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets for the periods presented.

Fair Value
The Company holds mortgage-backed securities, fixed income and equity securities, derivatives (see Note 7, Derivative Instruments) and certain other financial instruments which are carried at fair value. The Company determines fair value based upon quoted prices when available or through the use of alternative approaches, such as model pricing, when market quotes are not readily accessible or available. In determining the fair value of the Company’s obligations, various factors are considered, including: closing exchange or over-the-counter market price quotations; time value and volatility factors underlying options and derivatives; price activity for equivalent instruments; and the Company’s own credit standing.
These valuation techniques may be based upon observable and unobservable inputs. Observable inputs reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect the Company’s market assumptions. These two types of inputs create the following fair value hierarchy:
Level 1 – Quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets.
Level 2 – Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations whose inputs are observable or whose significant value drivers are observable.
Level 3 – Instruments whose significant value drivers are unobservable.

(a) 
Gains and losses (realized and unrealized) associated with fuel price derivatives, included in earnings for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, are reported in net realized and unrealized losses on fuel price derivatives on the condensed consolidated statements of income. Gains associated with contingent consideration, included in earnings for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, are reported in other expenses and loss of foreign currency transactions on the condensed consolidated statements of income.
$400 Million Notes outstanding
The Notes outstanding as of June 30, 2014, have a carrying value of $400,000 and fair value of $386,000. As of December 31, 2013, the carrying value of the $400,000 in Notes outstanding had a fair value of $365,000. The fair value is based on market rates for the issuance of our debt. The Company determined the fair value of its Notes outstanding are based on current quoted market prices (Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy).
Available-for-sale securities and executive deferred compensation plan trust
When available, the Company uses quoted market prices to determine the fair value of available-for-sale securities; such items are classified in Level 1 of the fair-value hierarchy. These securities primarily consist of exchange-traded equity securities.
For mortgage-backed and asset-backed debt securities and bonds, the Company generally uses quoted prices for recent trading activity of assets with similar characteristics to the debt security or bond being valued. The securities and bonds priced using such methods are generally classified as Level 2.
Fuel price derivatives
The majority of derivatives entered into by the Company are executed over-the-counter and are valued using internal valuation techniques, as no quoted market prices exist for such instruments. The valuation technique and inputs depend on the type of derivative and the nature of the underlying instrument. The principal technique used to value these instruments is a comparison of the spot price of the underlying instrument to its related futures curve adjusted for the Company’s assumptions of volatility and present value, where appropriate. The fair values of derivative contracts reflect the expected cash the Company will pay or receive upon settlement of the respective contracts.
The key inputs depend upon the type of derivative and the nature of the underlying instrument and include interest rate yield curves, the spot price of the underlying instruments, volatility, and correlation. The item is placed in either Level 2 or Level 3 depending on the observability of the significant inputs to the model. Correlation and inputs with longer tenures are generally less observable.
Fuel price derivatives – diesel. The assumptions used in the valuation of the diesel fuel price derivatives use both observable and unobservable inputs. There is a lack of price transparency with respect to forward prices for diesel fuel. Such unobservable inputs are significant to the diesel fuel derivative contract valuation methodology.
Quantitative Information About Level 3 Fair Value Measurements. The significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of the Company’s diesel fuel price derivative instruments designated as Level 3 as of June 30, 2014, are as

Sensitivity to Changes in Significant Unobservable Inputs. As presented in the table above, the significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of the Company’s diesel fuel price derivative instruments are the future retail price of diesel fuel from the third quarter of 2014 through the fourth quarter of 2015. Significant changes in these unobservable inputs in isolation would result in a significant change in the fair value measurement.
Contingent consideration
The Company had classified its liability for contingent consideration related to its acquisition of UNIK within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy because the fair value is determined using significant unobservable inputs, which include the projected revenues of UNIK over a four month period. The fair value determination included assessing the probability of meeting certain milestones required to earn the contingent consideration.
On June 30, 2013, the Company finalized the contingent consideration amount based on current performance milestones and determined it to be approximately $511, which was paid on July 1, 2013.

Non-controlling interests
On August 30, 2012, the Company acquired a 51 percent ownership interest in UNIK. Redeemable non-controlling interest was measured at fair value at the date of acquisition. The redeemable non-controlling interest is reported on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets as “Redeemable non-controlling interest."

Income Taxes
Undistributed earnings of certain foreign subsidiaries of the Company amounted to $8,714 at June 30, 2014, and $4,665 at December 31, 2013. These earnings are considered to be indefinitely reinvested, and accordingly, no U.S. federal and state income taxes have been provided thereon. Upon distribution of these earnings in the form of dividends or otherwise, the Company would be subject to both U.S. income taxes (subject to an adjustment for foreign tax credits) and withholding taxes payable to the various foreign countries. The Company has determined that the amount of taxes attributable to these undistributed earnings is not practicably determinable.

13.
Commitments and Contingencies
Litigation
The Company is involved in pending litigation in the ordinary course of business. In the opinion of management, such litigation will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Segment Information
Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise about which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. The Company’s chief operating decision maker is its Chief Executive Officer. The operating segments are reviewed separately as each operating segment represents a strategic business unit that generally offers different products and serves different markets.
The Company’s chief operating decision maker evaluates the operating results of the Company’s reportable segments based upon revenues and “adjusted net income,” which is defined by the Company as net income adjusted for fair value changes of derivative instruments, the amortization of purchased intangibles, expense associated with stock-based compensation, acquisition related expenses, the net impact of tax rate changes on the Company’s deferred tax asset and related changes in the tax-receivable agreement, deferred loan costs associated with the extinguishment of debt, certain non-cash asset impairment charges, the gains on the extinguishment of a portion of the tax receivable agreement and adjustments attributable to non-controlling interests.
The Company operates in two reportable segments, Fleet Payment Solutions and Other Payment Solutions. The Fleet Payment Solutions segment provides customers with payment and transaction processing services specifically designed for the needs of vehicle fleet customers. This segment also provides information management services to those fleet customers. The Other Payment Solutions segment provides customers with a payment processing solution for their corporate purchasing and transaction monitoring needs. Revenue in this segment is derived from the Company’s corporate purchase cards and virtual and prepaid card products. The corporate purchase card products are used by businesses to facilitate purchases of their products and to utilize the Company’s information management capabilities.
Financing interest expense from the Company’s corporate debt, including the term loan and bond issuance, and net realized and unrealized losses on derivative instruments are allocated to the Fleet Payment Solutions segment in the computation of segment results for internal evaluation purposes. Total assets are not allocated to the segments.

Beginning in the first half of 2014, adjusted pre-tax income before NCI excludes the expense of stock-based compensation and acquisition related expenses. For comparative purposes, adjusted pre-tax income before NCI for the prior periods has been adjusted to reflect the exclusion of stock-based compensation and differs from the figures previously reported due to this adjustment. No acquisition expenses were incurred during the first half of 2013.We believe this adjustment makes this non-GAAP measurement more comparable to our peers.

Subsequent Event

Acquisition of Evolution1

On July 16, 2014, the Company completed the acquisition of the stock of Evolution1, a leading provider of cloud-based technology and payment solutions within the healthcare industry for approximately $532,500 in cash. The transaction was financed through the Company’s cash on hand and existing credit facility. Evolution1 developed and operates a all-in-one, multi-tenant technology platform, card products, and mobile offering that supports a full range of healthcare account types. This includes consumer-directed payments for Health Savings Accounts, Health Reimbursement Arrangements, Flexible Spending Accounts, Voluntary Employee Beneficiary Associations, and defined contribution and wellness programs. The Company acquired Evolution1 to advance the Company's capabilities in the healthcare market and enhance the Company's positioning and exposure to this growing market. The Company expects Evolution1 to contribute approximatly $80,000 in annual revenues. The results of operations for Evolution1 will be presented in the Company's Other Payment Solutions segment.

Due to the timing of the transaction during the third quarter of 2014, the Company has not completed its purchase accounting of Evolution1 and is unable to provide further information regarding the assets, liabilities and intangible assets acquired in the purchase.

Sale of Pacific Pride

On July 29, 2014, the Company signed an agreement to sell its wholly owned subsidiary Pacific Pride for $50,000, which represents an approximate pre-tax gain of $29,000. The transfer of the operations of Pacific Pride is scheduled to occur on July 31, 2014. The Company decided to sell the operations of Pacific Pride as it did not align with the long-term strategy of the core fleet business. The operations of Pacific Pride are not material to the Company's annual revenue, net income or earnings per share. Simultaneously with the sale, the Company entered into a multi-year agreement with the buyer that will continue to allow WEX branded card acceptance at Pacific Pride locations. The Company does not view this divestiture as a strategic shift in its Fleet Payment Solution segment.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
We intend for this discussion to provide the reader with information that will assist in understanding our financial statements, the changes in key items in those financial statements from year to year, and the primary factors that accounted for those changes, as well as how certain accounting estimates affect our financial statements. The discussion also provides information about the financial results of the two segments of our business to provide a better understanding of how those segments and their results affect our financial condition and results of operations as a whole. This discussion should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2013, the notes accompanying those financial statements and management’s discussion and analysis as contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on February 27, 2014 and in conjunction with the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and notes in Item 1 of Part I of this report.

Overview
WEX is a leading provider of corporate card payment solutions. We have expanded the scope of our business into a multi-channel provider of corporate payment solutions.

Our business model enables us to provide exceptional payment security and control across a spectrum of payment sectors. The Fleet Payment Solutions segment provides customers with fleet vehicle payment processing services specifically designed for the needs of commercial and government fleets.

Management estimates that WEX fleet cards are accepted at over 90 percent of fuel locations in each of the United States and Australia. The Other Payment Solutions segment provides customers with payment processing solutions for their corporate purchasing and transaction monitoring needs through our payment products. Other Payment Solutions revenue is earned primarily from payment processing revenue from our virtual card product. The Other Payment Solutions segment has operations in North America, Europe, Australia and Brazil.
The Company’s U.S. operations include WEX, and our wholly owned subsidiaries Fleet One and WEX Bank and rapid! Paycard. Our international operations include our wholly-owned subsidiaries WEX Fuel Cards Australia, WEX Prepaid Cards Australia, WEX New Zealand, WEX Europe, located in England, and our majority equity positions in UNIK, a Brazil based company, and our majority owned subsidiary WEX Europe Services, located in the United Kingdom.

Revenues
Payment processing revenue increased $6.1 million for the second quarter of 2014 as compared to the second quarter of 2013, and $8.6 million for the first half of 2014 as compared to the same period in the prior year. These increases are primarily due to the organic growth of our domestic fleet business as our transaction volume increased 6 percent for the second quarter of 2014, as well as for the first half of 2014, as compared to the same periods in 2013.
Our account servicing revenue increased $1.5 million for the second quarter of 2014 as compared to the same period in 2013, and $2.3 million for the first half of 2014 as compared to the same period in the prior year. These increases are primarily due to growth in our WEX Telematics business.
Our finance fees revenue increased $3.9 million for the second quarter of 2014 as compared to the same period in 2013, and increased $8.0 million for the first half of 2014 as compared to the same period in the prior year. These increases are primarily due to higher minimum late fees charged to customers for overdue balances as well as increases in revenue attributable to our factoring business. Minimum late fee charges were increased in the third quarter of 2013. Payments for customer receivables are due within thirty days or less. Late fee revenue is earned when a customer’s receivable balance becomes delinquent. The late fee is calculated using a stated late fee rate based on the outstanding balance. The absolute amount of such outstanding balances can be attributed to (i) changes in fuel prices; (ii) customer specific transaction volume; and (iii) customer specific delinquencies. Late fee revenue can also be impacted by (i) changes in late fee rates and (ii) increases or decreases in the number of customers with overdue balances. The increases in late fees is primarily due the increase in minimum late fees charged and higher accounts receivable balances, as a result of higher transaction volume.
Other revenue increased $2.9 million for the second quarter of 2014 as compared to the same period in 2013, and increased $4.6 million for the first half of 2014 as compared to the same period in the prior year. These increases are primarily due to international expansion of our fuel related products as well as increases in our equipment sales due to customer upgrades of our equipment. The increase in revenue related to equipment sales is partially offset by increased cost of hardware and equipment sold.

Changes in operating expenses for the second quarter of 2014, as compared to the same period in the prior year, include the following:
Salary and other personnel expenses increased $2.1 million for the second quarter of 2014 as compared to the same period last year. The increase is primarily due to an increase in headcount and stock-based incentive compensation expense to support our growing operations, including the build out of the organization to support our upcoming acquisition of the ESSO Card program.
Service fees increased by $3.5 million for the second quarter of 2014 as compared to the same period last year. Service fees increased compared to the prior year due to acquisition related expenses incurred during the second quarter of 2014, expenses associated with the start up of our European commercial fuel card program and the fees related to the increase in the number of WEX Telematics units being serviced. We expect to recognize approximately $4.0 million of additional service fees from expenses related to the acquisition of Evolution1 during the third quarter of 2014.
Provision for credit losses increased by $1.5 million for the second quarter of 2014 as compared to the same period in the prior year. We generally measure our credit loss performance by calculating credit losses as a percentage of total fuel expenditures on the payment processing transactions. This metric for credit losses was 9.1 basis points of fuel expenditures for the second quarter of 2014, compared to 7.6 basis points of fuel expenditures for the same period last year. We use a roll rate

methodology to calculate the amount necessary for our ending receivable reserve balance. This methodology considers total receivable balances, recent charge off experience, recoveries on previously charged off accounts, and the dollars that are delinquent to calculate the total reserve. In addition, management undertakes a detailed evaluation of the receivable balances to help further ensure overall reserve adequacy. The expense we recognized in the quarter is a reflection of increased net charge-offs as compared to the same quarter last year.
Technology leasing and support expenses increased $0.3 million for the second quarter of 2014 as compared to the same period in the prior year. The increase is primarily the result of additional expenses related to the consolidation of data centers and additional fees associated with the general expansion of our operations.
Depreciation, amortization and impairment expenses increased $0.7 million for the second quarter of 2014 as compared to the same period in the prior year. This increase in depreciation expense is primarily related to hardware that was recently placed in service in conjunction with our data center consolidation.
Cost of hardware and equipment sold increased $1.1 million for the second quarter of 2014 as compared to the same period in the prior year. This increase is primarily related to increases in our equipment sales due to customer upgrades of our equipment as reflected in the increase in other revenue as noted above.

Changes in operating expenses for the first half of 2014, as compared to the same period in the prior year, include the following:
Salary and other personnel expenses increased $5.2 million for the first half of 2014 as compared to the same period last year. The increase is primarily due to an increase in headcount to support our growing operations, including the build out of the organization to support our upcoming acquisition of the ESSO Card program, as well as an increase in stock-based incentive compensation expense.
Service fees increased by $5.9 million for the first half of 2014 as compared to the same period last year. Service fees increased compared to the prior year due to acquisition expenses, expenses associated with the start up of our European commercial fuel card program and the fees related to the increase in the number of WEX Telematics units being serviced.
Provision for credit losses increased by $6.5 million for the first half of 2014 as compared to the same period in the prior year. Credit losses were 11.5 basis points of fuel expenditures for the first half of 2014, compared to 7.1 basis points of fuel expenditures for the same period last year. Beginning in the third quarter of 2013, we tested less restrictive credit standards for the approval of certain new customer applications and experienced an increase in delinquency rates during the first quarter of 2014. After monitoring the impact to our credit loss reserve, we returned to our prior stricter credit standards beginning in the second quarter of 2014. We also experienced an increase in a number of our low risks accounts that were in early stage delinquency. Because these are low risk accounts in early stage delinquencies, we do not expect there to be a significant impact on the remainder of the year. The expense we recognized for the first half of 2014 is the amount necessary to bring the reserve to its required level after net charge offs.
Technology leasing and support expenses increased $1.5 million for the first half of 2014 as compared to the same period in the prior year. The increase is primarily the result of additional expenses related to the consolidation of data centers and additional fees associated with the general expansion of operations.
Depreciation, amortization and impairment expenses increased $1.4 million for the first half of 2014 as compared to the same period in the prior year. This increase in depreciation expense is primarily related to computer hardware that was placed in service in conjunction with our data center consolidation.

Cost of hardware and equipment sold increased $1.0 million for the first half of 2014 as compared to the same period in the prior year. This increase is primarily related to increases in our equipment sales due to customer upgrades of our equipment as reflected in the increase in other revenue as noted above.
Fuel price derivatives
We own fuel price derivative instruments that we purchase on a periodic basis to manage the impact of the volatility in North American fuel prices on our cash flows. These fuel price derivative instruments do not qualify for hedge accounting. Accordingly, both realized and unrealized gains and losses on our fuel price derivative instruments affect our net income. Changes in fair value and settlements of these instruments and the changes in average fuel prices in relation to the underlying strike price of the instruments are shown in the following table:

Changes in fuel price derivatives for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, as compared to the corresponding periods a year ago are attributable to the movements in fuel prices in the corresponding periods. As of June 30, 2014, the projected future price of fuel is above the average future floor price of our derivatives, resulting in a net liability on our balance sheet. Losses that are realized on these derivatives are offset by higher payment processing revenue we receive because such revenues are dependent, in part, on the current price of fuel. Conversely, realized gains are offset by lower payment processing revenue.
We expect that our fuel price derivatives program will continue to be important to our business model going forward, and we expect to purchase derivatives in the future. The Company currently does not plan to hedge our fuel price risk exposure for WEX Fuel Cards Australia and WEX PrePaid Cards Australia as the earnings exposure to fuel price movements in Australia is typically more limited than it is domestically.
Financing interest expense
Financing interest expense remained essentially flat for the second quarter of 2014 as compared to the second quarter of the prior year and for the first half of 2014, as compared to the first half of the prior year. On January 30, 2013, the Company issued $400 million of Notes with a 4.75% fixed rate. The proceeds of these Notes were primarily used to pay down borrowings under our existing credit agreement, which had a variable interest rate that was lower than the rate on the Notes at the time of repayment. As such, financing interest expense related to the Notes outstanding was higher for the first half of 2014 as compared to the same period in 2013. This increase in financing interest expense was offset by a $1 million write-off of deferred loan fees associated with the extinguishment of debt in the first quarter of 2013.

Payment processing revenue increased $6.7 million for the second quarter of 2014 as compared to the same period in the prior year and increased $11.4 million for the first half of 2014 as compared to the same period in the prior year. The primary driver of the increases in the second quarter of 2014 as compared to the second quarter of 2013 as well as the first half of 2014 as compared to the same period in the prior year was higher corporate charge card purchase volume from our virtual WEX Travel product. These increases were partially offset by a decrease in the virtual card net interchange rate of 14 basis points for the first half of 2014 as compared to the same period in the prior year, primarily due to decreases in customer specific incentives from our network provider. Lastly, on November 9, 2012, the U.S District Court granted preliminary approval to the MasterCard/VISA merchant interchange settlement. Under the terms of this settlement, the domestic interchange rate for our branded credit card transactions was reduced by 10 basis points for a period of 8 months, that began on July 29, 2013. This resulted in a revenue reduction of approximately $1.9 million in the first half of 2014, compared to the same period in 2013.
Account servicing revenue increased $0.7 million for the second quarter of 2014 as compared to the same period in the prior year and increased $1.5 million for the first half of 2014 as compared to the same period in the prior year. The increases are primarily due to domestic growth in our payroll card product.
Other revenue for the second quarter of 2014 increased by approximately $1.0 million as compared to the same period in the prior year and increased $2.7 million for the first half of 2014, as compared to the same period in the prior year. These increases are primarily due to increased cross-border fees related to additional purchase card volume.

Service fees decreased $2.3 million for the second quarter of 2014 as compared to the same period last year. This decrease is primarily due to a decrease in cross-border fees. This decrease is partially offset by an increase in professional service fees related to management initiatives to execute our global strategic growth plan as well as higher processing fees associated with an increase in purchase card volume.
The provision for credit loss expense increased $0.4 million during the second quarter of 2014 as compared to the same period in the prior year. The expense we recognized in each quarter is the amount necessary to bring the reserve to its required level after net charge offs.
Other expenses increased $0.3 million for the second quarter of 2014 as compared to the same period in the prior year. This increase is primarily due to an increase in other non-income taxes.

Other expenses increased $0.5 million during the first half of 2014, as compared to the same period in the prior year. This change is primarily due to an increase in other non-income taxes.
Gain (loss) on foreign currency transactions

30

Table of Contents


During 2013, in order to reduce expenses resulting from cross-border fees, WEX Bank established cash accounts outside of the United States and settled certain transactions in foreign currencies. Changes in these foreign currencies due to exchange rates result in gains or losses which are reflected in our statements of income. Changes in exchange rates resulted in a $0.1 million gain for the second quarter of 2014 and a $1.2 million gain for the first half of 2014.
In April 2014, we initiated a partial foreign exchange hedging program. The terms of the hedges are intended to renew monthly, with no foreign exchange hedge balances outstanding at the end of any quarter. The results of these hedges are recorded in gain (loss) on foreign currency transactions. We believe that our partial hedging program will help mitigate volatility associated with holding certain foreign currency balances.
Non-GAAP financials measures
In addition to providing financial measurements based on GAAP, we publicly discuss additional financial measures, such as adjusted net income, that are not prepared in accordance with GAAP, or non-GAAP financial measures. Although adjusted net income is not calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), this measure is integral to the our reporting and planning processes. We consider this measure integral because it eliminates the non-cash volatility associated with the fuel price related derivative instruments, and excludes other specified items that our management excludes in evaluating the our performance. Specifically, in addition to evaluating our performance on a GAAP basis, management evaluates theour on a basis that excludes the above items because:
Exclusion of the non-cash, mark-to-market adjustments on fuel-price related derivative instruments helps management identify and assess trends in our underlying business that might otherwise be obscured due to quarterly non-cash earnings fluctuations associated with fuel-price derivative contracts.
The non-cash, mark-to-market adjustments on derivative instruments are difficult to forecast accurately, making comparisons across historical and future quarters difficult to evaluate.
The amortization of purchased intangibles, deferred loan costs associated with the extinguishment of debt, acquisition related expenses and adjustments attributable to non-controlling interest have no significant impact on the ongoing operations of the business.
Stock-based compensation is different from other forms of compensation, as it is a non-cash expense. For example, a cash salary generally has a fixed and unvarying cash cost. In contrast, the expense associated with an equity-based award is generally unrelated to the amount of cash ultimately received by the employee, and the cost to us is based on a stock-based compensation valuation methodology and underlying assumptions that may vary over time.
We consider certain acquisition-related costs, such as investment banking fees, financing fees and warranty and indemnity insurance, to be unpredictable, dependent on factors that may be outside of our control and unrelated to the continuing operations of the acquired business or the Company. In addition, the size and complexity of an acquisition, which often drives the magnitude of acquisition-related costs, may not be indicative of such future costs. We believe that excluding acquisition-related costs facilitates the comparison of our financial results to our historical operating results and to other companies in our industry.
For the same reasons, WEX believes that adjusted net income may also be useful to investors as one means of evaluating our performance. However, because adjusted net income is a non-GAAP measure, it should not be considered as a substitute for, or superior to, net income, operating income or cash flows from operating activities as determined in accordance with GAAP. In addition, adjusted net income as used by WEX may not be comparable to similarly titled measures employed by other companies.
Beginning this year, adjusted net income attributable to WEX Inc. excludes the expense of stock-based compensation and acquisition related expenses. For comparative purposes, adjusted net income attributable to WEX Inc. for the prior period has been adjusted to reflect the exclusion of stock-based compensation and differs from the figures previously reported due to this adjustment. No acquisition related expenses were incurred during the first half of 2013. We believe these adjustments make this non-GAAP measurement more comparable to our peers.

The tax impact of the adjustments used to calculate adjusted net income is the difference between our GAAP tax provision and a pro forma tax provision based upon our adjusted net income before taxes. The methodology utilized for calculating our adjusted net income tax provision is the same methodology utilized in calculating our GAAP tax provision.

Liquidity, Capital Resources and Cash Flows
We believe that our cash generating capability and financial condition, together with our revolving credit agreement, term loan and $400 million in Notes outstanding, as well as other available methods of financing (including deposit and borrowed federal funds), are adequate to meet our operating, investing and financing needs.

WEX Bank issued certificates of deposit in various maturities ranging between four weeks and two years and with fixed interest rates ranging from 0.25 percent to 0.80 percent as of June 30, 2014. As of June 30, 2014, we had approximately $566.8 million of certificates of deposit outstanding, compared to $527.1 million of certificates of deposits outstanding as of June 30, 2013. Certificates of deposit are subject to regulatory capital requirements.
As of June 30, 2014, we had approximately $317.8 million of interest-bearing money market deposits with a weighted average interest rate of 0.23 percent, compared to $123.2 million of interest-bearing money market deposits at June 30, 2013, with a weighted average interest rate of 0.37 percent. WEX Bank also has non-interest bearing NOW account deposits and non-interest bearing customer deposits. As of June 30, 2014, we had $345.0 million of non-interest bearing NOW account deposits and $21.7 million of non-interest bearing customer deposits outstanding. As of June 30, 2013, we had $319.9 million of non-interest bearing NOW account deposits and $17.7 million of non-interest bearing customer deposits outstanding. Deposits are subject to regulatory capital requirements.
As of both June 30, 2014 and 2013, we had no outstanding balance on our federal funds line of credit. As of June 30, 2014 we had $125.0 million of available credit and at June 30, 2013 we had $140.0 million of available credit.
We added $22.6 million in capital additions during the first half of 2014, primarily related to the development of internal-use software and for the consolidation of our data centers. We expect total capital expenditures for 2014 to be approximately $50 to $55 million.
We purchased $2.8 million in treasury shares during the second quarter of 2014 and $19.8 million in treasury shares during the first half of 2014.
Liquidity
WEX Bank utilizes brokered deposits, NOW deposits and borrowed federal funds to finance our accounts receivable. We continue to have access to these short-term borrowing instruments to fund our accounts receivable. Our cash balance for the

32

Table of Contents


first half of 2014 decreased $42.5 million, deposits increased by $162.4 million and our financing debt decreased by $7.5 million. Our accounts receivable increased $499.3 million and our accounts payable increased $181.7 million, primarily due to volume increases.
In general, our trade receivables provide for payment terms of 30 days or less. We do not extend revolving credit to our customers with respect to these receivables. Receivables not paid within the terms of the customer agreement are generally subject to late fees based upon the outstanding customer receivable balance. As of June 30, 2014, approximately 97 percent of the outstanding balance of $2,218 million, was less than 30 days past due and approximately 99 percent of the outstanding balance was less than 60 days past due. As of June 30, 2013, approximately 97 percent of the outstanding balance of $1,842 million, was less than 30 days past due and approximately 99 percent of the outstanding balance was less than 60 days past due.
On January 30, 2013, the Company entered into the 2013 Credit Agreement, among the Company and a syndicate of lenders. The 2013 Credit Agreement provides for a five-year amortizing $300 million term loan facility, and a five-year $800 million secured revolving credit facility with a $150 million sub-limit for letters of credit. The indebtedness covenant under the 2013 Credit Agreement requires that the Company reduce the revolving commitments under the 2013 Credit Agreement on a dollar-for-dollar basis to the extent that the Company issues more than $300 million in principal amount of senior or senior subordinated notes of the Company. Subject to certain conditions, including obtaining relevant commitments, the Company has the option to increase the facility by up to an additional $100 million.
The 2013 Credit Agreement replaced the 2011 Credit Agreement, dated as of May 23, 2011. The 2013 Credit Agreement increases the outstanding amount of the term loan from $185 million to $300 million and increased the availability under the revolving credit facility from $700 million to $800 million. On January 30, 2013, the Company completed a $400 million offering in aggregate principal amount of 4.75 percent senior notes due 2023 at an issue price of 100.0 percent of the principal amount, plus accrued interest, if any, from January 30, 2013, in a private placement for resale to “qualified institutional buyers” as defined in Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and in offshore transactions pursuant to Regulation S under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The Notes were issued pursuant to the Indenture dated as of January 30, 2013 among the Company, the guarantors listed therein, and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as trustee. The Notes will mature on February 1, 2023, and interest will accrue at the rate of 4.75 percent per annum. Interest is payable semiannually in arrears on February 1 and August 1 of each year, commencing on August 1, 2013. As a result of the issuance of the Notes, on January 30, 2013, the revolving loan commitment under the 2013 Credit Agreement was reduced to $700 million.
As of June 30, 2014, we have approximately 3.5 years left on our $700 million revolving credit facility and have no borrowings against it. The outstanding debt under our amortizing term loan arrangement, which expires in January of 2018, totaled $277.5 million at June 30, 2014 and $285.0 million at December 31, 2013. As of June 30, 2014, amounts outstanding under the amortizing term loan bear interest at a rate of LIBOR plus 175 basis points. The revolving credit facility currently bears interest at a rate equal to, at our option, (a) LIBOR plus 175 basis points or (b) the prime rate plus 75 basis points.
We decreased our overall financing debt (2013 Credit Agreement and Notes) by $7.5 million during the first half of 2014 with a balance outstanding of $677.5 million as of June 30, 2014.
Our credit agreement contains various financial covenants requiring us to maintain certain financial ratios. In addition to the financial covenants, the credit agreement contains various customary restrictive covenants including restrictions in certain situations on the payment of dividends. WEX Bank is not subject to certain of these restrictions. We have been, and expect to continue to be, in compliance with all material covenants and restrictions.
Undistributed earnings of certain foreign subsidiaries of the Company amounted to $8.7 million as of June 30, 2014. We currently do not plan to repatriate these earnings. If we were to distribute such earnings in the form of dividends or otherwise, the Company would be subject to both U.S. income taxes (subject to an adjustment for foreign tax credits) and withholding taxes payable to the various foreign countries. The Company’s primary tax jurisdictions are the United States and Australia.
Earnings outside of the U.S. are accompanied by certain financial risks, such as changes in foreign currency exchange rates. Changes in foreign currency exchange rates may reduce the reported value of our foreign currency revenues, net of expenses, and cash flows. We cannot predict changes in currency exchange rates, the impact of exchange rate changes, nor the degree to which we will be able to manage the impact of currency exchange rate changes.
In April 2014 we initiated a partial foreign exchange hedging program. The terms of the hedges are intended to renew monthly, with no foreign exchange hedge balances outstanding at the end of any quarter. Because this is a partial foreign exchange hedging program, we have additional foreign exchange exposure which is not hedged. We believe that our partial hedging program will help mitigate volatility associated with holding certain foreign currency balances.
On September 23, 2013, our Board of Directors authorized a new share repurchase program under which up to $150 million worth of our common stock may be repurchased from time to time until September 30, 2017, through open market purchases.

33

Table of Contents


As of June 30, 2014, we have approximately $47.2 million in cash located in our foreign entities, outside of the United States.
Management believes that we can adequately fund our cash needs for at least the next 12 months.
Subsequent transactions
On July 16, 2014, the Company completed the acquisition of the stock of Evolution1, a leading provider of cloud-based technology and payment solutions within the healthcare industry for approximately $532.5 million in cash. The transaction was financed through the Company’s cash on hand and existing credit facility. The Company expects Evolution1 to contribute approximately $80.0 million in annual revenue.
On July 17, 2014, we announced the execution of the definitive purchase and sale agreement relating to the previously announced proposed acquisition of the Esso Card program through a majority owned subsidiary, WEX Europe Services Limited. In addition, all necessary regulatory approvals have been received and the employee information and consultation processes have been cleared. The transaction is expected to close in late 2014 or early 2015. We anticipate that we will pay approximately $60.0 million during the third quarter of 2014 and approximately $300.0 million when the transaction closes.
In July 29, 2014, the Company signed an agreement to sell its wholly owned subsidiary Pacific Pride for $50 million, which represents an approximate pre-tax gain $29.0 million. The transfer of the operations of Pacific Pride is scheduled to occur on July 31, 2014.
To further enhance our liquidity, we expect to close on an amendment to our bank credit facility which will increase the size of the facility by approximately $220 million to $1.2 billion. The amendment will increase the term note portion of our facility to $500 million and will allow temporary increases in permitted leverage to provide us additional margin when the Esso Card deal is closed. The amendment, which are subject to final bank approval, are expected to be executed in August of 2014.
Off-balance Sheet Arrangements
Letters of credit. As of June 30, 2014, we had posted letters of credit totaling $12.0 million as collateral under the terms of our lease agreement for our corporate offices and other corporate matters.

(a) On February 7, 2007, we announced a share repurchase program authorizing the purchase of up to $75 million of our common stock over a 24 month period. In July 2008, our Board of Directors approved an increase of $75 million to the share repurchase authorization. In addition, our Board of Directors then extended the share repurchase program through July 25, 2013. We were authorized to purchase, in total, up to $150 million of our common stock. Share repurchases were to be made on the open market and could be commenced or suspended at any time. This extended share repurchase program expired on July 25, 2013. On September 23, 2013, we announced a new share repurchase program authorizing the purchase of up to $150.0 million worth of our common stock from time to time until September 30, 2017.
