1. | Basis of Presentation |
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements, which include the accounts of WEX Inc. and its wholly and majority-owned subsidiaries, 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. Accordingly, they exclude certain disclosures required by GAAP for a complete set of financial statements. Unless the context suggests otherwise, references in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q to “WEX,” the “Company,” “we” or “our” refer to WEX Inc. and its subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation in accordance with GAAP, which are of a normal recurring nature, have been included. Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results for any future periods or the year ending December 31, 2023. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements that are included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10–K for the year ended December 31, 2022, filed with the SEC on February 28, 2023.
We have applied the same accounting policies in preparing these quarterly financial statements as we did in preparing our 2022 annual financial statements. The Company rounds amounts in the condensed consolidated financial statements to millions and calculates all percentages and per-share data from underlying whole-dollar amounts. Thus, certain amounts may not foot, crossfoot or recalculate based on reported numbers due to rounding. We have included certain terms and abbreviations used throughout this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q within “Acronyms and Abbreviations” in the front of this document.
In connection with a rebranding initiative, during the first quarter of 2023 the Company renamed its existing reportable segments. The Fleet Solutions segment was renamed to Mobility, the Travel and Corporate Solutions segment was renamed to Corporate Payments and the Health and Employee Benefits Solutions segment was renamed to Benefits. These notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements incorporate these changes. There were no changes to the composition of our reportable segments.
Reclassifications
Beginning December 31, 2022, within the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows, accrued expenses are combined with other current and long-term liabilities within cash flows from operating activities and the change in restricted cash payable is presented separately. The change in restricted cash payable, which had previously been presented within cash flows from operating activities, is reflected within cash flows from financing activities. Prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation, which includes the reclassification of restricted cash payable inflows of $183.2 million from operating cash flows to financing cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2022.
2. | Significant Accounting Policies |
Significant Accounting Policies
The significant accounting policies used in preparation of these condensed consolidated financial statements as of and for the six months ended June 30, 2023, are consistent with those discussed in “Note 1, Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” to the consolidated financial statements in our 2022 Annual Report.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
There are no recent accounting pronouncements adopted during the six months ended June 30, 2023, or not yet adopted as of June 30, 2023, that could have a material effect on our financial statements.

3. | Revenues |
In accordance with Topic 606, revenue is recognized when, or as, performance obligations are satisfied as defined by the terms of the contract, in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for goods or services provided.
The following tables disaggregate the Company’s consolidated revenues, substantially all of which relate to services transferred to the customer over time:

Contract Balances
The majority of the Company’s receivables, which are excluded from the table below, are either due from cardholders who have not been deemed our customer as it relates to interchange income, or from revenues earned outside of the scope of Topic 606. The Company’s contract assets consist of upfront payments to customers under long-term contracts and are recorded upon the later of when the Company recognizes revenue for the transfer of the related goods or services or when the Company pays or promises to pay the consideration. The resulting asset is amortized against revenue as the Company satisfies its performance obligations under these arrangements. The Company’s contract liabilities consist of customer payments received before the Company has satisfied the associated performance obligations. The following table provides information about these contract balances:
(In millions) | ||||||||||||||||||||
Contract balance | Location on the condensed consolidated balance sheets | June 30, 2023 | December 31, 2022 | |||||||||||||||||
Receivables1 | Accounts receivable, net | $ | 24.2 | $ | 53.6 | |||||||||||||||
Contract assets | Prepaid expenses and other current assets | 24.5 | 13.6 | |||||||||||||||||

Contract liabilities | Accrued expenses and other current liabilities | 10.8 | 8.1 | |||||||||||||||||
Contract liabilities | Other liabilities | 84.1 | 87.0 | |||||||||||||||||
1 The significant decrease in receivables is due to the sale of certain accounts receivable invoices under a receivable securitization facility, which is described more fully within Note 11, Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements.
During the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company recognized revenue of $0.9 million and $2.6 million, respectively, related to contract liabilities existing as of December 31, 2022.
Remaining Performance Obligations
The Company’s unsatisfied or partially unsatisfied performance obligations as of June 30, 2023 represent the remaining minimum monthly fees on a portion of contracts across the lines of business, deferred revenue associated with stand ready payment processing obligations and contractually obligated professional services yet to be provided by the Company. The total remaining performance obligations below are not indicative of the Company’s future revenue, as they relate to a small portion of the Company’s operations.
The following table includes revenue expected to be recognized related to remaining performance obligations at the end of the reporting period.
(In millions) | Remaining 2023 | 2024 | 2025 | 2026 | 2027 | 2028 | Thereafter | Total | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

1 The transaction price allocated to the remaining performance obligations represents the minimum monthly fees on certain service contracts, which contain substantive termination penalties that require the counterparty to pay the Company for the aggregate remaining minimum monthly fees upon an early termination for convenience.
2 Substantially represents deferred revenue and contractual minimums associated with payment processing service obligations. Consideration associated with certain relationships is variable and the measurement and estimation of contract consideration is contingent upon payment processing volumes and maintaining volume shares, among others.

4. | Acquisitions and Other Investments |
Acquisitions
On January 3, 2023, the Company completed its acquisition of 100 percent of the equity of a newly formed Indian entity, created to carve out the workforce of an existing computer software design and development business. In exchange for total consideration of $6.0 million, the Company acquired an assembled workforce of approximately 180 employees and miscellaneous other assets. This assembled workforce represents additional resources to advance our technological capabilities and service offerings to our customers. Consideration of $4.5 million was payable upon the closing date, with up to $1.5 million payable within eighteen months following the acquisition date, dependent on the calculation of employee attrition as defined per the share purchase agreement. This acquisition has been accounted for as an asset acquisition, resulting in the capitalization of a workforce intangible asset of $8.1 million, inclusive of a $2.1 million gross up resulting from the recognition of a deferred tax liability related to the acquisition date difference between the assigned value of the intangible asset and its tax basis. The workforce intangible asset has an estimated useful life of 4.0 years. Acquisition costs were immaterial.
Other Investments
During the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company made minority equity investments in EV-focused companies totaling $5.0 million, over which we do not exert significant influence. Due to the lack of a readily determinable fair value, these investments will be measured at cost less any impairment until a specific remeasurement event occurs. The equity investments are recorded within other assets on our condensed consolidated balance sheets.
5. | Accounts Receivable, Net |
Accounts receivable consists of amounts billed to and due from customers across a wide range of industries and other third parties. The Company often extends short-term credit to cardholders by paying the merchant for the purchase price less the fees it retains and records as revenue, then subsequently collecting the total purchase price from the cardholder. The Company also extends revolving credit to certain small fleets. The Company had approximately $152.1 million and $157.8 million in gross receivables with revolving credit balances as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.
The allowance for accounts receivable consists of reserves for both credit and fraud losses, reflecting management’s current estimate of uncollectible balances on its accounts receivable. The following tables present changes in the accounts receivable allowances by portfolio segment:

1 The provision is comprised of estimated credit losses based on the Company’s loss-rate experience and includes adjustments required for forecasted credit loss information. The provision for credit losses reported within this table also includes the provision for fraud losses.
2 Consists primarily of charges to other accounts. The Company earns revenue by assessing monthly finance fees on accounts with overdue balances. These fees are recognized as revenue at the time the fees are assessed. The finance fee is calculated using the greater of a minimum charge or a stated late fee rate multiplied by the outstanding balance that is subject to a late fee charge. On occasion, these fees are waived to maintain relationship goodwill. Charges to other accounts substantially represent the offset against the late fee revenue recognized when the Company establishes a reserve for such waived amounts.
Concentration of Credit Risk
The receivables portfolio primarily consists of a large group of homogeneous balances across a wide range of industries, which are collectively evaluated for impairment. No individual customer had a receivable balance representing 10 percent or more of the outstanding receivables balance at June 30, 2023 or December 31, 2022. The following table presents the outstanding balance of trade accounts receivable that are less than 30 and 60 days past due, shown in each case as a percentage of total trade accounts receivable:
Delinquency Status | June 30, 2023 | December 31, 2022 | |||||||||
Less than 30 days past due | 99 | % | 98 | % | |||||||
Less than 60 days past due | 99 | % | 99 | % |
6. | Repurchases of Common Stock |
Under share buyback plans authorized by our board of directors from time to time, the Company may repurchase up to specified dollar values of shares of its common stock through open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions, block trades or otherwise.
During the six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company repurchased 0.5 million shares pursuant to a repurchase program, an insignificant number of which were repurchased during the three months ended June 30, 2023. The total repurchases were recorded as treasury stock of $96.0 million in our condensed consolidated balance sheet. Such cost reflects the applicable one percent excise tax imposed by the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 on the net value of certain stock repurchases made after December 31, 2022. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company repurchased 0.5 million shares pursuant to a repurchase program, which was recorded as treasury stock of $80.6 million in our condensed consolidated balance sheet.

7. | Earnings per Share |
Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income attributable to shareholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock and vested DSUs outstanding during the year. The computation of diluted earnings per share is similar to the computation of basic earnings per share, except that the numerator is increased for tax effected interest expense associated with our Convertible Notes and the denominator is increased for the assumed issuance of common shares upon conversion of the Convertible Notes under the “if-converted” method, unless the effect is anti-dilutive. Additionally, diluted earnings per share includes the assumed exercise of dilutive options, the assumed issuance of unvested RSUs, performance-based awards for which the performance condition has been met as of the date of determination and contingently issuable shares that would be issuable if the end of the reporting period was the end of the contingency period, using the treasury stock method unless the effect is anti-dilutive. The treasury stock method assumes that proceeds, including cash received from the exercise of employee stock options and the average unrecognized compensation expense for unvested share-based compensation awards, would be used to purchase the Company’s common stock at the average market price during the period.
The following table summarizes net income attributable to shareholders and reconciles basic and diluted shares outstanding used in the earnings per share computations:
Three Months Ended June 30, | Six Months Ended June 30, | ||||||||||||||||||||||
(In millions) | 2023 | 2022 | 2023 | 2022 | |||||||||||||||||||

Weighted average common shares outstanding – Diluted 2 | 43.4 | 45.1 | 43.5 | 45.2 |
1 For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, 0.5 million of outstanding share-based compensation awards were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share under the treasury stock method, as the effect of including those shares would be anti-dilutive. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, 0.7 million and 0.6 million of outstanding share-based compensation awards, respectively, were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share under the treasury stock method, as the effect of including those shares would be anti-dilutive.
2 It is the Company’s current intention to settle all conversions of the Convertible Notes in shares of the Company’s common stock. Under the “if-converted” method, approximately 1.6 million shares of the Company’s common stock associated with the assumed conversion of the Convertible Notes as of the beginning of the period have been excluded from diluted shares outstanding for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 as the effect of including such shares would be anti-dilutive. For further information regarding the Convertible Notes, see Note 10, Financing and Other Debt.
8. | Derivative Instruments |
The Company is exposed to certain market risks relating to its ongoing business operations. From time to time, the Company enters into derivative instrument arrangements to manage various risks including interest rate risk.
Interest rate swap contracts
The Company has entered into interest rate swap contracts to manage the interest rate risk associated with its outstanding variable-interest rate borrowings. Such contracts are intended to economically hedge the reference rate component of future interest payments associated with outstanding borrowings under the Company’s Amended and Restated Credit Agreement.
On April 26, 2023, the Company’s existing interest rate swap contracts were amended primarily to change the floating rate index from the one-month USD LIBOR to the one-month Term SOFR. In conjunction with the amendments to the floating rate index, the fixed interest rates payable by WEX under the contracts were also adjusted. There were no changes to notional amounts or maturity dates as a result of these amendments.
A summary of the Company’s amended interest rate swap contracts with a collective notional amount of $1.1 billion outstanding as of June 30, 2023 is as follows:

9. | Deposits |
WEX Bank’s regulatory status enables it to raise capital to fund the Company’s working capital requirements by issuing deposits, subject to FDIC rules governing minimum financial ratios. See Note 19, Supplementary Regulatory Capital Disclosure, for further information concerning these FDIC requirements.
WEX Bank accepts its deposits through certain customers as required collateral for credit that has been extended (“customer deposits”) and contractual arrangements for brokered and non-brokered certificate of deposit and money market deposit products. Additionally, WEX Bank holds deposits for the benefit of WEX Inc.’s HSA customers subject to the terms of a deposit agreement.
Customer deposits are generally non-interest bearing, certificates of deposit are issued at fixed rates, money market deposits are issued at both fixed and variable interest rates based on the Federal Funds rate and HSA deposits are issued at rates as defined within the consumer account agreements.
The following table presents the composition of deposits, which are classified as short-term or long-term based on their contractual maturities:

Debt Securitization Facilities
The Company is party to two securitized debt agreements with MUFG Bank, Ltd., both through April 2024. Under the terms of these agreements, each month on a revolving basis, the Company sells certain of its Australian and European receivables to bankruptcy-remote subsidiaries consolidated by the Company, which in turn use the receivables as collateral to issue securitized debt. Amounts collected on the securitized receivables are restricted to pay the securitized debt and are not available for general corporate purposes. The Company pays interest on the outstanding balance of the securitized debt based on variable interest rates plus an applicable margin.
Participation Debt
From time to time, WEX Bank enters into participation agreements with third-party banks to fund customers’ balances that exceed WEX Bank’s lending limit to individual customers. Associated unsecured borrowings generally carry a variable

interest rate set according to an applicable reference rate plus a margin, which ranged from 2.25 percent to 2.50 percent as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022. As of June 30, 2023, the Company had three outstanding participation agreements totaling $70.0 million, which expire at various points up to May 2024, unless otherwise agreed to in writing by the parties.
Borrowed Federal Funds
WEX Bank borrows from short-term uncommitted federal funds lines to supplement the financing of the Company’s accounts receivable. WEX Bank had $20.0 million in outstanding borrowings under these federal funds lines of credit as of June 30, 2023 and no borrowings as of December 31, 2022.
As of June 30, 2023, WEX Bank had $500.0 million in outstanding borrowings from the Federal Reserve’s Bank Term Funding Program (BTFP). The borrowing is due in June of 2024 with an interest rate of 5.39%. At June 30, 2023, debt securities with a par value of $575.1 million and fair value of $518.4 million were pledged as collateral.
As of June 30, 2023, WEX Bank pledged $236.2 million of fleet customer receivables held by WEX Bank to the Federal Reserve Bank as collateral for potential borrowings through the Federal Reserve Bank Discount Window. Amounts that can be borrowed are based on the amount of collateral pledged and was $182.2 million as of June 30, 2023. WEX Bank had no borrowings outstanding on this line of credit through the Federal Reserve Bank Discount Window as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022.
11. | Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements |
WEX Europe Services and WEX Bank Accounts Receivable Factoring
WEX Europe Services and WEX Bank are each party to separate accounts receivable factoring arrangements with unrelated third-party financial institutions to sell certain of their accounts receivable balances. Each subsidiary continues to service these receivables post-transfer with no participating interest. The Company obtained true-sale opinions from independent attorneys, stating that each respective factoring agreement provides legal isolation upon bankruptcy or receivership under local law. As such, transfers under these arrangements are treated as a sale and are accounted for as a reduction in trade accounts receivable because effective control of the receivables is transferred to the buyers. Proceeds received, which are recorded net of applicable costs or negotiated discount rates, are recorded in operating activities in the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows. Losses on factoring, which were $2.6 million and $4.5 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and immaterial for the same periods in 2022, are recorded within cost of services in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.
The WEX Europe Services agreement automatically renews each January 1 unless either party gives not less than 90 days written notice of their intention to withdraw. Under this agreement, accounts receivable are sold without recourse to the extent that the customer balances are maintained at or below the credit limit established by the buyer. The Company maintains the risk of default on any customer receivable balances in excess of the buyer’s credit limit, which were immaterial as of June 30, 2023. The Company sold $142.9 million and $283.4 million of accounts receivable during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively, and sold $159.6 million and $304.6 million of accounts receivable during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively, under this arrangement.
The WEX Bank agreement extends through July 2023, after which the agreement can be renewed for successive one-year periods assuming WEX Bank provides advance written notice that is accepted by the purchaser. The Company sold $3.3 billion and $5.2 billion of trade accounts receivable during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and $1.6 billion and $2.4 billion during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively, under this arrangement.
Benefits Securitization
In April 2023, WEX Health, through a wholly-owned special purpose entity (“SPE”), entered into a receivable securitization facility with an unrelated financial institution. Under the facility, WEX Health sells eligible trade accounts receivables to the SPE, which is a bankruptcy-remote subsidiary. The receivables, once sold to the SPE, are no longer available to satisfy creditors of the Company or its subsidiaries in the event of bankruptcy.
22
WEX INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)
(unaudited)
In turn, the SPE sells undivided ownership interests in certain of these receivables to the financial institution in exchange for cash equal to the gross receivables transferred. The receivables sold are fully guaranteed by the SPE, which also pledges any unsold receivables as collateral for such obligation.
While WEX Health continues to service the receivables sold to the financial institution under the facility, WEX does not retain effective control of the transferred receivables, derecognizes the assets and accounts for these transfers as sales. The revolving limit of the facility is $35.0 million, with an initial term through April 2026, which can be extended for an additional period of up to three years. The SPE can voluntarily terminate the facility at any time, subject to 30 days’ notice. The SPE pays interest on the amount funded by the financial institution based on variable interest rates, which is reflected within operating interest on the condensed consolidated statements of operations.
The third-party financial institution has a first priority security interest in all assets of the SPE, and the SPE has not granted a security interest to any other parties. In addition, WEX Inc. has provided a performance guarantee to the third-party financial institution with respect to WEX Health’s obligations as originator and servicer under the facility.
The Company sold approximately $82.2 million of receivables under the securitization facility for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023.
Non-Bank Custodial HSA Cash Assets
As a non-bank custodian, we contract with depository partners to hold custodial cash assets on behalf of individual account holders. As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, we were custodian to approximately $3.8 billion and $3.45 billion in HSA cash assets, respectively. Of these custodial balances, $1.1 billion and $1.4 billion at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively, were deposited with or managed by certain third-party partners and not recorded on our condensed consolidated balance sheets. Such third-party depository partners are regularly monitored by management for stability. The remaining balances of $2.8 billion and $2.1 billion in HSA assets as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively, are deposited with and managed by WEX Bank and are therefore reflected on our condensed consolidated balance sheets. See Note 9, Deposits, for further information about HSA deposits recorded on our condensed consolidated balance sheets.

The above table includes 503 investment positions at June 30, 2023, where the current fair value is less than the related amortized cost. Unrealized losses on the Company’s debt securities included in the above table are not considered to be credit-related based upon an analysis that considered the extent to which the fair value is less than the amortized basis of a security, adverse conditions specifically related to the security, changes to credit rating of the instrument subsequent to Company purchase, and the strength of the underlying collateral, if any. Additionally, the Company does not intend to sell the securities and it is not more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell the securities before recovery of their amortized cost bases.

3 The fair value is recorded as current or long-term based on the timing of the Company’s executive deferred compensation plan payment obligations. At June 30, 2023, $1.6 million and $11.4 million in fair value is recorded within prepaid expenses and other current assets and other assets, respectively. At December 31, 2022, $1.9 million and $9.2 million in fair value is recorded within prepaid expenses and other current assets and other assets, respectively.
4 The fair value is recorded as current or long-term depending on the timing of expected discounted cash flows. At June 30, 2023, $43.5 million and $25.4 million in fair value is recorded in prepaid expenses and other current assets and other assets, respectively. At December 31, 2022, $45.3 million and $36.1 million in fair value is recorded within prepaid expenses and other current assets and other assets, respectively.
5 The fair value is recorded as current or long-term based on the timing of expected payments. At June 30, 2023, $58.3 million and $122.4 million in fair value is recorded within accrued expenses and other current liabilities and other liabilities, respectively. At December 31, 2022, $28.7 million and $177.7 million in fair value is recorded within accrued expenses and other current liabilities and other liabilities, respectively.
Money Market Mutual Funds
A portion of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents are invested in money market mutual funds that primarily consist of short-term government securities, which are classified as Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy because they are valued using quoted market prices for identical instruments in an active market.

Debt Securities
The Company determines the fair value of U.S. treasury notes using quoted market prices for similar or identical instruments in a market that is not active. For corporate debt securities, municipal bonds, and asset-backed and mortgage-backed securities, 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 valued using Level 2 inputs to the fair value hierarchy.

(In millions) | Fair Value | Unfunded Commitments | Redemption Frequency | Redemption Notice Period | |||||||||||||||||||
Pooled investment fund, as of June 30, 2023 | $ | 9.0 | — | Monthly | 30 days |
The pooled investment fund maintains individual capital accounts for each investor, which reflect each individual investor’s share of the NAV of the fund.
Mutual Fund
The Company determines the fair value of its mutual fund using quoted market prices for identical instruments in an active market; such inputs are classified as Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy.
Executive Deferred Compensation Plan Trust
The investments held in the executive deferred compensation plan trust, which consist primarily of mutual funds, are classified as Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy because the fair value is determined using quoted market prices for identical instruments in active markets.
Interest Rate Swaps
The Company determines the fair value of its interest rate swaps based on the discounted cash flows of the difference between the projected fixed payments on the swaps and the implied floating payments using the current SOFR curve, which are Level 2 inputs of the fair value hierarchy.
Contingent Consideration
As part of the asset acquisition from Bell Bank during 2021, the Company is obligated to pay additional consideration to Bell Bank contingent upon increases in the Federal Funds rate. The Company determined the fair value of this contingent consideration derivative liability based on discounted cash flows using the difference between the baseline Federal Funds rate in the purchase agreement with Bell Bank and future forecasted Federal Funds rates over the agreement term. The forecasted Federal Funds rates represent a Level 3 input within the fair value hierarchy. The resulting probability-weighted contingent consideration amounts were discounted using a discount rate, which was 3.77 percent as of June 30, 2023 and 3.52 percent as of December 31, 2022. Significant increases or decreases in the Federal Funds rates could result in material increases or decreases, respectively, to the fair value of the Company’s contingent consideration derivative liability.
The Company records changes in the estimated fair value of the contingent consideration in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. Changes in the contingent consideration derivative liability are measured at fair value on a recurring basis using unobservable inputs (Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy) and are as follows for the periods indicated:

The remainder has been included in net cash provided by (used for) operating activities (specifically within changes in accrued expenses and other current and long-term liabilities).
Financial Instruments Measured at Carrying Value, for which Fair Value is Disclosed
The fair value of the Company’s financial instruments, which are measured and reported at carrying value, is as follows for the periods indicated:

1 The Company determines the fair value of borrowings on the Revolving Credit Facility and Tranche A Term Loans and Tranche B Term Loans based on market rates for the issuance of the Company’s debt, which are Level 2 inputs in the fair value hierarchy.
2 The Company determines the fair value of the Convertible Notes outstanding using our stock price and volatility, the conversion premium on the Convertible Notes and effective interest rates for similarly-rated credit issuances, all of which are Level 2 inputs in the fair value hierarchy.
3 The Company determines the fair value of its contractual deposits with maturities in excess of one year using current market interest rates for deposits of similar remaining maturities, which are Level 2 inputs in the fair value hierarchy.
Other Assets and Liabilities
The carrying value of certain of the Company’s financial instruments, other than those presented above, including cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash and restricted cash payable, short-term contractual deposits and HSA deposits, accounts receivable and securitized accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued expenses and other current liabilities and other liabilities, approximate their respective fair values due to their short-term nature or maturities. The carrying value of certain other financial instruments, including interest-bearing money market deposits, securitized debt, participation debt, borrowed federal funds and deferred consideration associated with our acquisitions approximate their respective fair values due to stated interest rates being consistent with current market interest rates.
Concentrations of Credit Risk
The Company’s financial instruments that are exposed to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, investment securities, trade receivables and interest rate swap contracts.
The Company’s cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash and interest rate swap contracts are transacted and maintained with financial institutions with high credit standing. Cash balances at many of these institutions regularly exceed FDIC insured limits; however, management regularly monitors the financial institutions and the composition of the Company’s accounts. We have not experienced any losses in such accounts and management believes that the financial institutions at which the Company’s cash is held are stable. We attempt to limit our exposure to credit risk with our investment securities by establishing strict investment policies as to minimum investment ratings, diversification of our portfolio and setting risk tolerance levels.
Concentration of credit risk with respect to accounts receivable is limited because a large number of geographically and industry diverse customers make up our customer base. See Note 5, Accounts Receivable, Net, for further information.

14. | Redeemable Non-Controlling Interest |
On March 5, 2019, the Company acquired Discovery Benefits from SBI, who obtained a 4.9 percent equity interest in PO Holding. The equity interest was puttable under the agreement, making the non-controlling interest redeemable and therefore, it was classified as temporary equity outside of stockholders’ equity. As part of WEX Inc.’s purchase of the HSA contractual rights from Bell Bank on April 1, 2021, SBI’s ownership percentage was reduced to 4.53 percent.
On March 7, 2022, WEX Inc. purchased SBI’s remaining 4.53 percent interest in PO Holding for a deferred purchase price of $234.0 million plus any interest accruing pursuant to the terms of the purchase agreement and recorded the liability at a net present value of $216.6 million. The carrying value of the redeemable non-controlling interest immediately prior to the acquisition date was $254.4 million and therefore, the $37.8 million excess carrying value as of the acquisition date was recorded within the change in value of redeemable non-controlling interest on the condensed consolidated statements of operations, offset by $3.5 million of deferred tax expense resulting from the difference between the book and tax bases of the deferred liability payable to SBI. As a result of the acquisition, the carrying value of the redeemable non-controlling interest was reduced to zero and WEX Inc. owns 100 percent of PO Holding.
15. | Income Taxes |
The Company’s effective tax rate was 19.1 percent and 24.4 percent for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively, and 29.8 percent and 31.5 percent for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively. Income tax expense is based on an estimated annual effective rate, which requires the Company to make its best estimate of annual pretax income or loss. The Company’s effective tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 was favorably impacted by a release in valuation allowance largely attributable to foreign tax credits and net operating losses in the U.K. Additionally, the Company recorded a discrete tax benefit of $2.5 million in the second quarter of 2023 thereby reversing a portion of an uncertain tax position of $7.5 million that originally adversely impacted the Company’s effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2022. The Company’s effective tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2022 was also adversely impacted by reduced tax benefits arising from stock-based compensation.
Undistributed earnings of certain foreign subsidiaries of the Company amounted to $205.0 million and $159.9 million at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. The Company continues to maintain its indefinite reinvestment assertion for its investments in foreign subsidiaries except for any historical undistributed earnings and future earnings for WEX Australia. The total amount of our foreign subsidiaries’ earnings in which the Company continues to assert indefinite reinvestment approximates $169.8 million at June 30, 2023. Upon distribution of these earnings, the Company would be subject to withholding taxes payable to foreign countries, where applicable, but would generally have no further federal income tax liability. It is not practicable to estimate the unrecognized deferred tax liability associated with these undistributed earnings; however, it is not expected to be material.
16. | Commitments and Contingencies |
Litigation and Regulatory Matters
The Company is subject to litigation, claims and regulatory matters in the ordinary course of business. As of the date of this filing, the current estimate of a reasonably possible loss contingency from all legal or regulatory proceedings is not material to the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations, cash flows or liquidity.
Commitments
Significant commitments and contingencies as of June 30, 2023 are consistent with those discussed in Note 20, Commitments and Contingencies, to the consolidated financial statements in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10–K for the year ended December 31, 2022.

19. | Supplementary Regulatory Capital Disclosure |
The Company’s subsidiary, WEX Bank, is subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the FDIC and the UDFI. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, WEX Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of WEX Bank’s assets, liabilities and certain off-balance sheet items. WEX Bank’s capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings and other factors. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory and possible additional discretionary actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could limit business activities and have a material effect on the Company’s business, results of operations and financial condition.

Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require WEX Bank to maintain minimum amounts and ratios as defined in the regulations. The most recent FDIC exam report categorized WEX Bank as “well capitalized” under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. There are no conditions or events subsequent to that examination report that management believes have changed WEX Bank’s capital rating.

1 The impact of foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations on Mobility decreased revenue by $0.8 million in the second quarter of 2023 and by $3.3 million in the first half of 2023 as compared to the same periods in the prior year. Lower domestic fuel prices decreased revenue by $53.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and $51.7 million in the first half of 2023 as compared to the same periods in the prior year.
2 Our net payment processing rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 has benefited from lower average domestic fuel prices, the impact of interest rate escalator clauses contained in various merchant contracts and favorable European fuel price spreads, partly offset by a release in minimum volumes commitment penalty reserves during 2022 that did not recur.
Total Mobility revenue decreased $39.0 million for the second quarter of 2023 and decreased $15.9 million for the first half of 2023 as compared to the same periods in the prior year. The decrease in total Mobility revenue was primarily driven by a decrease in average fuel prices during the second quarter of 2023 on stable levels of payment processing transactions year over year. To a lesser extent, the decrease in total Mobility revenue during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 is due to lower finance fee revenue.
Finance fee revenue is comprised of the following components:

Finance income primarily consists of late fees charged for receivables not paid within the terms of the customer agreement based upon the outstanding customer receivable balance, and to a lesser degree by finance charges earned on revolving portfolio balances. Late fee revenue is earned when a customer’s receivable balance becomes delinquent and is calculated using the greater of a minimum charge or a stated late fee rate multiplied by the outstanding balance that is subject to a late fee charge. Changes in the absolute amount of such outstanding balances can generally 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 customer overdue balances.
Finance income, while not materially changing period over period, decreased $4.5 million for the second quarter of 2023 as compared to the same period in the prior year, primarily due to the decline in average fuel prices driving down customer spend upon which late fees are earned. Concessions to certain customers experiencing financial difficulties may be granted and are limited to extending the time to pay, placing a customer on a payment plan or granting waivers of late fees. There were no material concessions granted to customers experiencing financial difficulties during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022.
The primary source of factoring fee revenue is calculated as a negotiated percentage fee of the receivable balance that we purchase. Factoring fee revenue decreased $4.2 million for the second quarter of 2023 and decreased $9.2 million for the first half of 2023 as compared to the same periods in the prior year. A decrease in shipping demand in the over-the-road market during the first half of 2023 led to a decline in size and volume of factored invoices as compared to the elevated demands of the same periods in the prior year.

See “Non-GAAP Financial Measures That Supplement GAAP Measures” later in this Item 2 for a reconciliation of operating income to total segment adjusted operating income. See also Part I – Item 1 – Note 18, Segment Information, to our condensed consolidated financial statements for more information regarding our segment determination.
2 Segment adjusted operating income margin is calculated by dividing segment adjusted operating income by segment revenue. The second quarter and first half of 2023 saw a decrease in segment adjusted operating income margin from the prior year comparable period, primarily reflecting the decreased second quarter 2023 revenues due to the decline in average fuel prices.
Cost of services
Processing costs increased by $7.6 million and $13.8 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively, as compared with the same periods in the prior year. Such increases were driven primarily by higher technology and employee related costs.
Provision for credit losses, which includes estimates for both credit and fraud losses, decreased by $20.9 million for the second quarter of 2023 as compared to the same period in the prior year, primarily due to a decrease in fraud losses, though credit losses also declined relative to the prior year. For the six months ended June 30, 2023, a decrease in fraud losses was offset by elevated credit losses as a percentage of fuel expenditures, due in part to the previously discussed demand in the over-the-road market, which has contributed to slower payments from small customers in this business, along with an increase in expected charge-offs in our U.S. fleet customers due to macroeconomic factors.
We generally measure our loss performance by calculating fuel-related losses as a percentage of total fuel expenditures on payment processing transactions. This metric for provision for credit losses was 15.4 and 23.6 basis points of fuel expenditures for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, provision for credit losses was 23.6 and 19.9 basis points of fuel expenditures, respectively.
Operating interest increased $14.2 million for the second quarter of 2023 and increased $23.0 million for the first half of 2023 as compared to the same periods in the prior year, primarily reflective of higher interest rates on operating debt balances in support of working capital needs.
Depreciation and amortization decreased $4.2 million for the first half of 2023 compared to the prior year comparable period due to certain assets becoming fully depreciated during 2022.
36
Other operating expenses
General and administrative expenses increased $6.8 million and $11.2 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively, as compared with the same periods in the prior year due primarily to increased professional services expense in support of increasing operating efficiencies and business growth and in part due to increased employee compensation expense, including non-cash stock compensation.

1 The impact of foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations on Corporate Payments increased revenues by $1.1 million during the three months ended June 30, 2023 and decreased revenues $0.8 million during the six months ended June 30, 2023, compared to the prior year comparable periods.
2 Changes in customer and product mix, including the significant growth in travel-related purchase volumes, has reduced our net interchange rate during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the same periods of the prior year. We expect our current product mix to remain consistent through the remainder of the year.
Total Corporate Payments revenue increased $21.5 million for the second quarter of 2023 and $49.0 million for the first half of 2023 as compared to the same periods in the prior year. These increases were primarily driven by continued strength in consumer travel demand. Other revenue has increased due to higher interest revenue earned on restricted cash balances, due to a rise in interest rates, and average balances coinciding with increased travel volumes.
Concessions to certain customers experiencing financial difficulties may be granted and are limited to extending the time to pay, placing a customer on a payment plan or granting waivers of late fees. There were no material concessions granted to customers during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022.

2 Segment adjusted operating income margin is calculated by dividing segment adjusted operating income by segment revenue. The first half of 2023 increase in segment adjusted operating income margin primarily reflects a sharp increase in travel volumes relative to the prior year.
As a result of owning all of our technology and issuing capabilities, our Corporate Payments segment has a highly scalable and relatively fixed cost base resulting in largely comparable expenses year to year. As a result, the significant increase in 2023 revenues has also significantly contributed to the increased operating income, segment adjusted operating income and segment adjusted operating income margin for the first half of 2023.

1 The growth in average number of SaaS accounts, which represents the number of active Consumer-Directed Health, COBRA, and billing accounts on our SaaS platforms. SaaS accounts include HSA accounts for which WEX Inc. serves as the non-bank custodian under designation by the U.S. Department of Treasury.
Total Benefits revenue increased $40.6 million for the second quarter of 2023 and $84.4 million for the first half of 2023 as compared to the same periods in the prior year. A rise in average interest rates earned on the investment of HSA deposit balances held by WEX Bank, as reflected within other revenue, and increases in program fees earned on custodial services, as reflected within account servicing revenue, significantly contributed to the increase in total revenues in the second quarter and first half of 2023 compared to the prior year comparable periods. Increased spend volume driven by cardholder growth and increased SaaS participants also contributed to the increase in total revenues.

2 Segment adjusted operating income margin is calculated by dividing segment adjusted operating income by segment revenue. The revenues earned on HSA assets is highly accretive to earnings and as a result, segment adjusted operating income margin for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 increased significantly from the prior year comparable periods.
Cost of services
Service fees increases for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 were primarily driven by increased fees incurred on higher HSA deposits, as compared with the same periods in the prior year.
Other operating expenses
General and administrative expenses increased $3.4 million and $5.3 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 as compared with the same periods in the prior year primarily due to increased professional services expense in support of increasing operating efficiencies and business growth.
Expansion of the sales and marketing team drove the $4.3 million increase in sales and marketing expense for the first half of 2023, as compared to the prior year period.
39
Depreciation and amortization increased $4.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023, as compared to the prior year period, primarily due to higher relative amortization on HSA contractual rights.
Unallocated corporate expenses
Unallocated corporate expenses represent the portion of expenses relating to general corporate functions, including acquisition and divestiture expenses, certain finance, legal, information technology, human resources, administrative and executive expenses, and other expenses not directly attributable to a reportable segment.

Financing interest expense increased as a result of higher net variable interest rates on our term loans, inclusive of amounts economically hedged via interest rate swap agreements.
Due to the rising rate environment since acquisition, the Company’s contingent consideration derivative liability is effectively reflected at the maximum contingent consideration payable under the agreement. As a result, absent a significant decline in the Federal Funds futures curve, changes in the fair value of contingent consideration in 2023 and beyond are expected to generally be limited to present value adjustments due to the passage of time. See Part I – Item 1 – Note 13, Financial Instruments − Fair Value and Concentrations of Credit Risk, to our condensed consolidated financial statements for further information on the valuation of this derivative liability.
Our foreign currency exchange exposure is primarily related to the remeasurement of our cash, receivable and payable balances, including intercompany transactions that are denominated in foreign currencies. During the second quarter and first half of 2023, the Company’s loss due to foreign currency fluctuations was immaterial.
40
Due to substantial increases in the LIBOR forward yield curve during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, we recognized significant unrealized gains on our interest rate swap financial instruments during those periods. Comparatively, during 2023 forward yield curves on our interest rate swap financial instruments experienced only moderate changes.
The increase in income tax provision for the second quarter of 2023 as compared to the prior year comparable period is primarily due to an increase in pre-tax income, offset in part by the reduction in the Company’s effective tax rate. The Company’s effective tax rate of 19.1 percent for the three months ended June 30, 2023 decreased as compared to 29.8 percent for the three months ended June 30, 2022, primarily as a result of a valuation allowance release during the second quarter of 2023.
During the six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company purchased the remaining non-controlling interest in PO Holding from SBI, reducing the carrying value of the redeemable non-controlling interest to zero. The transaction resulted in a $34.2 million gain, net of tax expense.
Non–GAAP Financial Measures That Supplement GAAP Measures
Segment Adjusted Operating Income and Adjusted Net Income
In addition to evaluating the Company’s performance on a GAAP basis, management of the Company uses segment adjusted operating income, a non-GAAP measure, to allocate resources among our operating segments. The Company considers this measure, which excludes unallocated corporate expenses, acquisition-related intangible amortization, other acquisition and divestiture related items, debt restructuring costs, stock-based compensation and other costs integral in evaluating the Company’s performance.
Our management also uses adjusted net income, a non-GAAP measure, to evaluate its performance. WEX believes that adjusted net income, which similarly excludes all items discussed in the paragraph above except unallocated corporate expenses, and further excludes unrealized gains and losses on financial instruments, net foreign currency gains and losses, change in fair value of contingent consideration, debt issuance cost amortization, other adjustments attributable to non-controlling interests and tax related items, is also integral to the Company’s reporting and planning processes.
Segment adjusted operating income and adjusted net income may be useful to investors as a means of evaluating our performance. However, because segment adjusted operating income and adjusted net income are non-GAAP measures, they should not be considered as a substitute for, or superior to, operating income or net income as determined in accordance with GAAP. Segment adjusted operating income and adjusted net income as used by WEX may not be comparable to similarly titled measures employed by other companies.
Specifically, in addition to evaluating the Company’s performance on a GAAP basis, management evaluates the Company’s performance on a non-GAAP basis that excludes the items specified above for the reasons discussed below:
•Exclusion of the non-cash, mark-to-market adjustments on financial instruments, including interest rate swap agreements and investment securities, helps management identify and assess trends in the Company’s underlying business that might otherwise be obscured due to quarterly non-cash earnings fluctuations associated with these financial instruments. Additionally, the non-cash, mark-to-market adjustments on financial instruments are difficult to forecast accurately, making comparisons across historical and future periods difficult to evaluate;
•Net foreign currency gains and losses primarily result from the remeasurement to functional currency of cash, accounts receivable and accounts payable balances, certain intercompany notes denominated in foreign currencies and any gain or loss on foreign currency economic hedges relating to these items. The exclusion of these items helps management compare changes in operating results between periods that might otherwise be obscured due to currency fluctuations;
•The change in fair value of contingent consideration, which is related to the acquisition of certain contractual rights to serve as custodian or sub-custodian to HSAs, is dependent upon changes in future interest rate assumptions and has no significant impact on the ongoing operations of the Company. Additionally, the non-cash, mark-to-market adjustments on financial instruments are difficult to forecast accurately, making comparisons across historical and future periods difficult to evaluate;
•The Company considers certain acquisition-related costs, including certain financing costs, investment banking fees, warranty and indemnity insurance, certain integration-related expenses and amortization of acquired intangibles, as well as gains and losses from divestitures to be unpredictable, dependent on factors that may be outside of our control
41
and unrelated to the continuing operations of the acquired or divested 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. The Company believes that excluding acquisition-related costs and gains or losses on divestitures facilitates the comparison of our financial results to the Company’s historical operating results and to other companies in our industry;
•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 the Company is based on a stock-based compensation valuation methodology and underlying assumptions that may vary over time;
•Other costs are not consistently occurring and do not reflect expected future operating expense, nor do they provide insight into the fundamentals of current or past operations of our business. This also includes non-recurring professional service costs, costs related to certain identified initiatives, including restructuring and technology initiatives, to further streamline the business, improve the Company’s efficiency, create synergies and globalize the Company’s operations, all with an objective to improve scale and efficiency and increase profitability going forward.
•Debt restructuring and debt issuance cost amortization are unrelated to the continuing operations of the Company. Debt restructuring costs are not consistently occurring and do not reflect expected future operating expense, nor do they provide insight into the fundamentals of current or past operations of our business. In addition, since debt issuance cost amortization is dependent upon the financing method, which can vary widely company to company, we believe that excluding these costs helps to facilitate comparison to historical results as well as to other companies within our industry;
•The adjustments attributable to non-controlling interests, including adjustments to the redemption value of a non-controlling interest, have no significant impact on the ongoing operations of the business;
•The tax related items are the difference between the Company’s GAAP tax provision and a pro forma tax provision based upon the Company’s adjusted net income before taxes as well as the impact from certain discrete tax items. The methodology utilized for calculating the Company’s adjusted net income attributable to shareholders tax provision is the same methodology utilized in calculating the Company’s GAAP tax provision; and
•The Company does not allocate certain corporate expenses to our operating segments, as these items are centrally controlled and are not directly attributable to any reportable segment.

1 Under the ‘if-converted’ method, approximately 1.6 million shares of the Company’s common stock associated with the assumed conversion of the Convertible Notes as of the beginning of the period was included in the calculations of adjusted net income per diluted share, as the effect of including such adjustments was dilutive.

The total number of shares used in calculating adjusted net income per diluted share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 was 44.9 million and 45.0 million, respectively.

Adjusted Free Cash Flow
The Company’s non-GAAP adjusted free cash flow is calculated as cash flows from operating activities, adjusted for net purchases of current investment securities, capital expenditures, the change in net deposits, changes in borrowings under the BTFP and certain other adjustments which, for the six months ended June 30, 2023, reflects an adjustment for contingent consideration paid to sellers in excess of acquisition-date fair value. Although non-GAAP adjusted free cash flow is not calculated in accordance with GAAP, WEX believes that adjusted free cash flow is a useful measure for investors to further evaluate our results of operations because (i) adjusted free cash flow indicates the level of cash generated by the operations of the business, which excludes consideration paid on acquisitions, after appropriate reinvestment for recurring investments in property, equipment and capitalized software that are required to operate the business; (ii) changes in net deposits occur on a daily basis as a regular part of operations; (iii) borrowings under the BTFP are primarily used as a replacement for brokered deposits as part of our accounts receivable funding strategy; and (iv) purchases of current investment securities are made as a result of deposits gathered operationally. However, because adjusted free cash flow is a non-GAAP measure, it should not be considered as a substitute for, or superior to, operating cash flow as determined in accordance with GAAP. In addition, adjusted free cash flow as used by WEX may not be comparable to similarly titled measures employed by other companies.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
We fund our business operations primarily via cash on hand, cash generated from operations, the issuance of deposits, borrowings under our Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, our participation debt and our accounts receivable factoring and securitization arrangements. As of June 30, 2023, we had cash and cash equivalents of $901.4 million, including Corporate Cash of $193.4 million, along with a remaining borrowing availability of $892.9 million under the Revolving Credit Facility provided by our Amended and Restated Credit Agreement along with access to various sources of funds, including uncommitted federal funds lines of credit from other banks.
We believe that our current cash and cash equivalents, cash generating capabilities, financial condition and operations, and access to available funding sources will be sufficient to fund our cash needs for the next 12 months and the foreseeable future. The table below summarizes our primary sources and uses of cash:
Sources of cash | Uses of cash1 | |||||||
•Cash generated from operations •Borrowings and availability on our Amended and Restated Credit Agreement2 •Deposits3 •Accounts receivable securitization and factoring arrangements4 •Participation debt and borrowed federal funds5 | •Payments on our Amended and Restated Credit Agreement •Payments on maturities and withdrawals of deposits •Payments on borrowed federal funds •Working capital needs of the business •Capital expenditures •Purchases of shares of treasury stock |
1 Our long-term cash requirements consist primarily of amounts owed on our Amended and Restated Credit Agreement and various facilities lease agreements.
2 Under our Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, as of June 30, 2023 the Company had outstanding term loan principal borrowings of $2,277.9 million, borrowings of $4.0 million on the Revolving Credit Facility and letters of credit of $33.1 million drawn against the Revolving Credit Facility. See Part I – Item 1 – Note 10, Financing and Other Debt, to our condensed consolidated financial statements for more information regarding our Amended and Restated Credit Agreement.
3 WEX Bank’s regulatory status enables it to raise capital to fund the Company’s working capital requirements by issuing deposits, subject to FDIC rules governing minimum financial ratios. Additionally, WEX Bank holds deposits for the benefit of WEX Inc.’s HSA customers subject to the terms of a deposit agreement. As of June 30, 2023, we had $4,321.9 million in total deposits. See Part I – Item 1 – Note 9, Deposits, to our condensed consolidated financial statements for more information regarding our deposits.
4 The Company utilizes securitized debt agreements to finance a portion of our receivables, lower our cost of borrowing and more efficiently utilize capital. The Company had $95.9 million of securitized debt under these facilities as of June 30, 2023. We also utilize off-balance sheet factoring and securitization arrangements to sell certain of our accounts receivable to unrelated third-party financial institutions in order to accelerate the collection of the Company’s cash and reduce internal costs. Available capacity is dependent on the level of our trade accounts receivable eligible to be sold and the financial institutions’ willingness to purchase such receivables. However, the Company is not dependent on them to maintain its liquidity and capital resources. We are not aware of any circumstances that are reasonably likely to cause the off-balance sheet arrangements to have a material adverse effect on liquidity and capital resources. See Part I – Item 1 – Notes 10, Financing and Other Debt and 11, Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements, to our condensed consolidated financial statements for further information about the Company’s securitized debt and off-balance sheet arrangements.
5 From time to time, WEX Bank enters into participation agreements with third-party banks to fund customers’ balances that exceed WEX Bank’s lending limit to individual customers. There was $53.9 million borrowed against these participation agreements as of June 30, 2023. WEX Bank also borrows from uncommitted federal funds lines from time to time to supplement the financing of the Company’s accounts receivable. There were $20.0 million in outstanding borrowings under these lines of credit as of June 30, 2023. See Part I – Item 1 – Note 10, Financing and Other Debt, to our condensed consolidated financial statements for more information regarding these facilities.
44
Additional Sources of Cash Available
On March 12, 2023, the Federal Reserve Board announced the Bank Term Funding Program, which provides liquidity to U.S. depository institutions. This program allows bank loans for up to one year in length, collateralized by the par value of qualifying assets, including U.S. treasuries and mortgage-backed securities. Advances will be available until March 11, 2024, or longer if the program is extended. At any time under the BTFP, WEX Bank is able to refinance without penalty in order to obtain the most advantageous rate. During the second quarter of 2023, WEX Bank participated in the BTFP by accessing $500.0 million of temporary, low-cost capital under the BTFP and pledging as collateral securities with a par value of $575.1 million and market value of $518.4 million.
WEX Bank has the ability to borrow funds from the Federal Reserve Bank Discount Window. Borrowing limits fluctuate based on pledged assets, and as of June 30, 2023, the Company could borrow up to a maximum amount of $182.2 million. WEX Bank had no borrowings outstanding on this line of credit as of June 30, 2023. See Part I – Item 1 – Note 10, Financing and Other Debt, to our condensed consolidated financial statements for more information regarding this borrowing arrangement.

2 The Company’s non-GAAP adjusted free cash flow is calculated as cash flows from operating activities, adjusted for net purchases of current investment securities, capital expenditures, the change in net deposits and BTFP borrowings, and certain other adjustments. For a reconciliation to net cash provided by operating activities, the most closely comparable GAAP measure, and the reasons why we believe this is an important financial measure, please refer to the section titled Non-GAAP Financial Measures That Supplement GAAP Measures.
Operating Activities
We fund a customer’s entire receivable in the majority of our Mobility and Corporate Payment processing transactions, while the revenue generated by these transactions is only a small percentage of that amount. Consequently, cash flows from operations are impacted significantly by increases or decreases in fuel prices and purchase volumes, driving changes in accounts receivable and accounts payable balances, which directly impact our capital resource requirements.
Cash provided by operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2023 increased $420.9 million as compared to the same period in the prior year. The increase in cash provided by operating activities year over year was primarily the result of the favorable impact on working capital of a decrease in fuel prices during the first half of 2023 as compared to the significant increase in fuel prices during the first half of 2022.
Investing Activities
Investing cash flows generally consist of capital expenditures, cash used for acquisitions and the investment of custodial cash assets.
Cash used for investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2023 increased $711.7 million as compared to the same period in the prior year, primarily resulting from higher relative investment of HSA deposits in available-for-sale debt securities.
45
Financing Activities
Financing cash flows generally consist of the issuance and repayment of debt and deposits, changes in restricted cash payable and purchases of treasury shares. Repurchases of our common stock may vary based on management’s evaluation of market and economic conditions and other factors.
Cash provided by financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2023 increased $491.8 million, due primarily to borrowings under the BTFP of $500.0 million during the six months ended June 30, 2023.
During the six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company repurchased approximately 0.5 million shares of our common stock subject to an authorized and outstanding share buyback plan. Cash settlements for share repurchases during the first half of 2023 totaled $104.0 million. As of the date of this filing, there is $413.5 million worth of common stock shares that are available to be purchased pursuant to the existing repurchase authorization.
Adjusted Free Cash Flow
The definition of adjusted free cash flow, and the reasons why we believe it to be an important financial measure, can be found in the section titled Non-GAAP Financial Measures That Supplement GAAP Measures.
Adjusted free cash flow increased $265.0 million during the six months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the same period in the prior year, reflecting an increase in borrowings under the BTFP as well as cash generated from operating activities, partially offset by an increase in purchases of current investment securities.
Financial Covenants
The Amended and Restated Credit Agreement contains customary affirmative and negative covenants affecting the Company and its subsidiaries, including covenants limiting the Company’s ability to, among other things, incur debt (including disqualified stock), grant liens, make certain investments, pay dividends, repurchase equity interests and sell assets, subject to certain exceptions. The Amended and Restated Credit Agreement also contains customary financial maintenance covenants, including a consolidated interest coverage ratio and a consolidated leverage ratio. The indenture associated with the Convertible Notes also includes customary covenants, including a debt incurrence covenant that restricts the Company from incurring certain indebtedness, including disqualified stock and preferred stock issued by the Company or its subsidiaries, subject to customary exceptions. At June 30, 2023, we were in compliance with such covenants. See Part II – Item 7, Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Liquidity and Capital Resources and Part II – Item 8 – Note 16, Financing and Other Debt, in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 for more information regarding these covenants.
Other Commitments, Contingencies and Contractual Obligations
On July 1, 2023, WEX Health signed a definitive agreement to acquire certain entities collectively referred to as Ascensus Health & Benefits, a line of business of Ascensus, which is a leading technology-enabled provider of employee health benefit accounts with a diversified portfolio of accounts including HSAs, FSAs, and others. Pursuant to the terms of the agreement, total consideration for the acquisition is expected to approximate $180 million, subject to certain standard working capital and other adjustments. We expect the transaction to close before year end, subject to regulatory approvals and other closing conditions.
Other than the upcoming Ascensus Health & Benefits acquisition, there were no material changes to our contractual obligations from the information previously provided in Item 7 of our Annual Report on Form 10–K for the year ended December 31, 2022.
Regulatory Matters
WEX Bank is working to resolve matters with the FDIC and the UDFI, including with respect to a consent order issued by the FDIC and the UDFI (the “Order”) on May 6, 2022. The Order requires WEX Bank to strengthen its Bank Secrecy Act/anti-money laundering compliance program and to address related matters, including with respect to controls. The terms of the Order will remain in effect and be enforceable until they are modified, terminated, suspended or set aside by the FDIC and the UDFI. The matters identified are not expected to have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, financial condition or cash flows.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management, with the participation of the principal executive officer and principal financial officer of WEX Inc., evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2023. Based on this evaluation, the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of June 30, 2023. “Disclosure controls and procedures” are controls and other procedures of a company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the company in the reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms.

As of the date of this filing, we are not involved in any material legal proceedings and there are no material proceedings known to be contemplated by governmental authorities. We also were not involved in any material legal proceedings that were terminated during the three months ended June 30, 2023.
Item 1A. Risk Factors.
In addition to the other information set forth in this report, you should carefully consider the factors discussed in Part I, “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10–K for the year ended December 31, 2022, and in Part II, “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended March 31, 2023, which could materially affect our business, financial condition or future results. The risk factors disclosure in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 and in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended March 31, 2023 is

qualified by the information that is described in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including the risk factors set forth below. The risks described in our Annual Report on Form 10–K for the year ended December 31, 2022, in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended March 31, 2023 and in this Quarterly Report are not the only risks facing our Company. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition or results of operations.
To reflect a recent update to Utah state law, we are revising the risk factor included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 under the heading, “Provisions in our charter documents, Delaware law, applicable banking laws and the Convertible Notes may delay or prevent our acquisition by a third party,” to read as follows:
Provisions in our charter documents, Delaware law, applicable banking laws and the Convertible Notes may delay or prevent our acquisition by a third party, and could adversely impact the market price of our common stock.
Our certificate of incorporation and by-laws contain several provisions that may make it more difficult for a third party to acquire control of us without the approval of our board of directors. These provisions include, among other things, a classified board of directors (which will be fully declassified commencing with the 2024 annual meeting of stockholders), the prohibition of stockholder action by written consent, advance notice requirements for raising business or making nominations at meetings of stockholders and “blank check” preferred stock. In addition, under the indenture governing the Convertible Notes, upon the occurrence of a “fundamental change” (as defined in the indenture, and which includes, among other things, certain change of control transactions with respect to the Company), holders may require the Company to repurchase all or a portion of their Convertible Notes at a repurchase price equal to the sum of (i) 105 percent of then accreted principal amount of the Convertible Notes to be repurchased, plus accrued interest and (ii) the sum of the present values of the scheduled remaining payments of interest had such Convertible Notes remained outstanding through maturity. These provisions may make it more difficult or expensive for a third party to acquire a majority of our outstanding voting common stock or change control of our board of directors. We also are subject to certain provisions of Delaware law, including Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, which could delay, deter or prevent us from entering into an acquisition. These provisions may also delay, prevent or deter a merger, acquisition, tender offer, proxy contest or other transaction that might otherwise result in our stockholders receiving a premium over the market price for their common stock.
Under the Change in Bank Control Act of 1978, as amended (“CIBC Act”) and the FDIC’s regulations thereunder, any person, either individually or acting through or in concert with one or more other persons, must provide notice to, and effectively receive prior approval from, the FDIC before acquiring “control” of us. Under the CIBC Act, control is conclusive if, among other things, a person or company acquires 25 percent or more of any class of our voting stock. A rebuttable presumption of control arises if a person or company acquires 10 percent or more of any class of our voting stock.
Under the Utah Financial Institutions Act (“UFIA”), no person may acquire direct or indirect “control” of a depository institution without first receiving the formal written approval of the Utah DFI’s commissioner. Under the UFIA, control is defined to include having the power to vote 25 percent or more of any class of our voting securities. A rebuttable presumption of control arises if a person has the power, directly or indirectly, or through or in concert with one or more persons, to vote more than 10 percent but less than 25 percent of any class of our voting securities. Any person seeking to rebut a presumption of control is required to do so by submitting an application to the Utah DFI’s commissioner.
Investors are responsible for ensuring that they do not, directly or indirectly, acquire shares of our common stock in excess of the amount which can be acquired without regulatory approval. In practice, the process for obtaining such approval is complicated and time-consuming, often taking longer than six months, and a proposed acquisition may be disapproved for a variety of factors, including, but not limited to, antitrust concerns, financial condition and managerial competence of the applicant, and failure of the applicant to furnish all required information.
Finally, our certificate of incorporation requires that if any stockholder fails to provide us with satisfactory evidence that any required approvals have been obtained, we may, or will if required by state or federal regulators, restrict such stockholder’s ability to vote such shares with respect to any matter subject to a vote of our stockholders.
Collectively, these provisions could delay or prevent a third party from acquiring us, despite the possible benefit to our stockholders, or otherwise adversely affect the market price of our common stock. Further, as a result of these requirements, certain existing and potential stockholders may choose not to invest in our stock at all or invest further in our stock. This could limit the number of potential investors and impact our ability to attract further funds.
48
We are subject to risks associated with our strategic minority equity investments, including a loss of all or part of our invested capital, which could adversely affect our results of operations or fail to enhance stockholder value.
We have begun to make minority investments in the equity securities of third parties in connection with our strategic initiatives. These investments are inherently risky because the companies are typically early-stage and markets for their technologies or products may never materialize to the levels we expect. Further, we may not realize the anticipated commercial benefits of such investments. In addition, such investments are non-marketable and illiquid at the time of our initial investment, and the financial success and appreciation of our investment may be dependent on a liquidity event, such as a public offering, acquisition or other favorable market event. If the companies in which we invest experience financial distress and are unable to raise additional financing, we could lose all or part of our investment.
Furthermore, we may be unable to direct or influence management, operational decisions, compliance and other policies of such companies, which could result in additional financial and reputation risks. Additionally, other investors in these entities may have business goals and interests that are not aligned with ours, or may exercise their rights in a manner in which we do not approve. These circumstances could lead to delayed decisions or disputes and litigation with those other investors, all of which could have an impact on our reputation, business, financial condition and results of operations. If these entities seek additional financing, such financing or other transactions may result in further dilution of our ownership stakes and such transactions may occur at lower valuations than the investment transactions through which we acquired such interests, which could significantly decrease the fair values of our investments in those entities.
We have been and expect to continue to use artificial intelligence in our business, and challenges with properly managing its use could result in harm to our brand, reputation, business or customers, and adversely affect our results of operations.
We have been and expect to continue to use artificial intelligence (“AI”) solutions to assist in the development of our platform, offerings, services, products and in the use of internal tools that support our business. These applications may become increasingly important in our operations over time. This technology, which is a new and emerging technology that is in its early stages of commercial use, presents a number of risks inherent in its use, including risks related to cybersecurity and data practices. Additionally, AI algorithms are based on machine learning and predictive analytics, which can create accuracy issues, unintended biases and discriminatory outcomes that could harm our brand, reputation, business or customers. Further, our competitors or other third parties may incorporate AI into their business, services and products more rapidly or more successfully than us, which could hinder our ability to compete effectively and adversely affect our results of operations. Implementing the use of AI successfully, ethically and as intended, will require significant resources, including having the technical complexity and expertise required to develop, test and maintain our platform, offerings, services and products. In addition, we expect that there will continue to be new laws or regulations concerning the use of AI. It is possible that certain governments may seek to regulate, limit, or block the use of AI in our products and services or otherwise impose other restrictions that may hinder the usability or effectiveness of our products and services.
