Nuvei reports in U.S. dollars and in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”)
MONTREAL, Aug. 09, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Nuvei Corporation (“Nuvei” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq: NVEI) (TSX: NVEI), tomorrow’s payment platform, today reported its financial results for the three months ended June 30, 2022.
“We reported a solid second quarter with a 44% increase in Total volume at constant currency(1) and a 17% increase in Adjusted EBITDA(2), both exceeding our outlook as we continued to execute on our strategic initiatives. Our strength this quarter was driven by our disciplined investments for sustainable growth, which continue to enhance our financial profile, as well as strong revenue growth, cash generation and a solid balance sheet,” said Philip Fayer, Nuvei’s Chair and CEO.
“We are amending our outlook for the remainder of the year due to unforeseen changes in currency, volatility in digital assets and cryptocurrencies, and caution with regard to global economic conditions. However, we are maintaining our medium and long-term targets, pursuant to which we aspire to achieve $1.0 billion of annual revenue, as we continue to grow, scale and position Nuvei for a sustainable future, driven by our resilient and durable business model and our ongoing investments in people, technologies and geographies.”

Comparing Second Quarter 2022 Results To Outlook
Nuvei exceeded its outlook for both Total volume(1) and Adjusted EBITDA(2), while revenue of $211 million was below its outlook range previously provided of between $217 million and $223 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022. This was mainly as a result of changes in foreign currency exchange rates, which negatively impacted revenue by approximately $2 million, as the US dollar strengthened more than anticipated; a change in volume mix from alternative payment methods (“APMs”), for which revenue is presented on a gross basis, to credit, which is presented net of interchange and payment network fees, which negatively impacted revenue by approximately $6 million; and higher volatility and lower volume than we anticipated in digital assets and cryptocurrencies, which negatively impacted revenue by approximately $4 million.
These factors combined contributed approximately $12 million of revenue headwind in this year’s second quarter. Excluding these factors, many of which were largely unforeseen, the Company believes it would have been closer to the high-end of the revenue range of the outlook it provided for the second quarter ended June 30, 2022.
Operational Highlights
- Revenue for the second quarter of 2022 increased 28% to $119.9 million in Europe, the Middle East and Africa, increased 8% to $83.4 million in North America, increased 29% to $6.9 million in Latin America, and decreased 45% to $1.0 million in Asia Pacific. North America eCommerce direct revenue increased 34% to $22.4 million in this year’s second quarter from last year’s second quarter, representing approximately 27% of total North America revenue.
- Revenue from Nuvei’s Global eCommerce Direct channel (the Company’s largest distribution channel as a percentage of revenue) increased by 28% in the second quarter of 2022 compared to the second quarter of 2021 as a result of recent investments in sales distribution.
- New business in the Company’s regulated online gaming vertical is progressing well and contributed to an increase in online gaming revenue by 22% in the second quarter of 2022 compared to the second quarter of 2021. In terms of Nuvei’s progress in North America, its online gaming revenue "run-rate” is now approximately $25 million and is on pace to deliver $100 million of annual “run-rate” revenue.
- With respect to advancements in product innovation, Nuvei:
- Enhanced and expanded its payouts solution offering to include instant SEPA payouts for all European countries. It also launched Visa direct support in Canada, and added local payout options in Brazil, Canada, Chile, Columbia, Malaysia, Mexico, Peru and Romania.
- Introduced Nuvei Simple Connect SDK (software development kit), which dramatically simplifies integration into its platform. The Company believes its SDK solution is ahead of its emerging peers as it’s the easiest to integrate, allows for more than just card payments, and offers customers access to our full array of capabilities with greater flexibility and deeper customization.
- Launched its omnichannel solution, which via a single integration, allows customers to now use Nuvei for multi-channel, multi-geography integrations with single token, reporting and reconciliation to streamline their global operations.
- Nuvei added multiple new APMs increasing its portfolio to 571 at the end of the second quarter, expanding access and allowing its customers to accept more forms of regionally familiar and preferred digital payment methods.
- Nuvei expanded local card acquiring capabilities and enhanced its payment capabilities enabling customers to accept additional forms of local payments methods in Singapore and South Korea.
- The Company added more than 100 new employees in the second quarter of 2022, ending with 1,570 employees at June 30, 2022 compared with 1,368 employees at December 31, 2021.
- The Company expanded its Board of Directors to eight members with the appointments of technology veterans Maren Lau, Regional Vice President, Latin America at Meta Platforms, Inc.; and Tim Dent, former Chief Financial Officer and Chief Compliance Officer of DraftKings Inc.
- For the three month period ended June 30, 2022, Nuvei purchased and canceled 559,902 Subordinate Voting Shares (“Shares”) for a total consideration, including transaction costs of $34.4 million in the second quarter at an average price of $61.44 per share in connection with its previously announced normal course issuer bid allowing it to purchase up to 6,617,416 of its Shares. In total, the Company has purchased and canceled 1,768,668 shares for $109.2 million at an average price of $61.71 through June 30, 2022.
Financial Outlook(3)
The following outlook supersedes all prior statements made by the Company and is based on current expectations. The Company has amended its financial outlook for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2022 based on its results for the six months ended June 30, 2022; headwind from changes in foreign currency exchange rates; higher volatility and lower volume in digital assets and cryptocurrencies; and a more cautious view of the macroeconomic environment for the second half of the year.
The financial outlook for the remainder of 2022 assumes greater currency headwinds than previously expected from the stronger U.S. dollar and the Company has applied average foreign currency exchange rates for July 2022 to its financial forecast for the balance of the year; lower volume in digital assets and cryptocurrencies than previously anticipated; and the potential impact from higher inflation and rising interest rates which could increase pressure on consumer spending in the second half of the year. See also “Forward-Looking Information” below for further details on assumptions underlying financial outlook.
For the three months ending September 30, 2022 and the fiscal year ending December 31, 2022, Nuvei anticipates Total volume(1), Revenue and Adjusted EBITDA(2) to be in the ranges below. The updated financial outlook and specifically the Adjusted EBITDA(2) reflects the Company’s strategy to accelerate its investment in distribution, marketing, innovation, and technology.
The financial outlook is fully qualified and based on a number of assumptions and subject to a number of risks described under the heading “Forward-Looking Information” of this press release. Nuvei's outlook also constitutes "financial outlook" within the meaning of applicable securities laws and is provided for the purposes of assisting the reader in understanding the Company's financial performance and measuring progress toward management's objectives and the reader is cautioned that it may not be appropriate for other purposes.

Growth Targets(4)
Nuvei’s medium-term(5) annual growth targets for Total volume(1) and revenue, as well as its long-term target for Adjusted EBITDA margin(2), are shown in the table below. These medium(5) and long-term(5) targets should not be considered as projections, forecasts or expected results but rather goals that we seek to achieve from the execution of our strategy over time, and at further stage of business maturity, through geographic expansion, product innovation, growing wallet share with existing customers and new customer wins. The Company’s medium term targets are not made in respect of any particular fiscal year and should not be assumed or interpreted to be made in any way in respect of 2023 or any other fiscal year, whether by reference to the Company’s financial outlook, or actual results, for 2022 or otherwise.
Growth Targets(4) | |
Total volume(1) | 30%+ annual year-over-year growth in the medium term(5) |
Revenue | 30%+ annual year-over-year growth in the medium term(5) |
Adjusted EBITDA margin(2) | 50%+ over the long term(5) |
(1) Total volume, Total volume at constant currency and Total organic volume at constant currency does not represent revenue earned by the Company, but rather the total dollar value of transactions processed by merchants under contractual agreement with the Company. See “Supplementary Financial Measures” below.
(2) Revenue at constant currency, Revenue growth at constant currency, Organic Revenue at constant currency, Organic revenue growth at constant currency, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, Adjusted net income, Adjusted net income per diluted share and Free cash flow are non-IFRS and other financial measures. See “Non-IFRS and Other Financial Measures”.
(3) Other than with respect to revenue, the Company only provides guidance on a non-IFRS basis. The Company does not provide a reconciliation of forward-looking revenue at constant currency (non-IFRS), Adjusted EBITDA (non-IFRS) to net income (loss) due to the inherent difficulty in forecasting and quantifying certain amounts that are necessary for such reconciliation. In periods where significant acquisitions or divestitures are not expected, the Company believes it might have a basis for forecasting the IFRS equivalent for certain costs, such as employee benefits, commissions and depreciation and amortization. However, because other deductions such as share-based payments, net finance costs, gain (loss) on financial instruments carried at fair market value and current and deferred income taxes used to calculate projected net income (loss) can vary significantly based on actual events, the Company is not able to forecast on an IFRS basis with reasonable certainty all deductions needed in order to provide an IFRS calculation of projected net income (loss). The amount of these deductions may be material and, therefore, could result in projected IFRS net income (loss) being materially less than projected Adjusted EBITDA (non-IFRS). These statements represent forward-looking information and may represent a financial outlook, and actual results may vary. See the risk and assumptions described under the heading “Forward-looking information” of this press release.
(4) These growth targets are fully qualified and based on a number of assumptions and subject to a number of risks as described under the heading “Forward-looking Information” of this press release. These growth targets serve as guideposts as we execute on our strategic priorities in the medium to long term, and they assume a near term resumption to a normal business and macroeconomic environment, continuing momentum and performance of the Company’s core business and favorable tailwinds of the verticals it serves. We will review and revise these growth targets as economic, market and regulatory environments change.
(5) “Medium-term” and “long term” have not been defined by Nuvei nor does Nuvei intend to define them. These targets should not be considered as projections, forecasts or expected results but rather goals that we seek to achieve from the execution of our strategy over time. These growth targets are fully qualified and based on a number of assumptions and subject to a number of risks described under the heading “Forward-Looking Information” of this press release. These targets are provided for the purposes of assisting the reader in measuring progress toward management’s objectives and the reader is cautioned that they may not be appropriate for other purposes.

Non-IFRS and Other Financial Measures
Nuvei’s unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with IFRS as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board. The information presented in this press release includes non-IFRS financial measures, non-IFRS financial ratios and supplementary financial measures, namely Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, Revenue at constant currency, Revenue growth at constant currency, Organic Revenue, Organic revenue growth, Adjusted net income, Adjusted net income per basic share, Adjusted net income per diluted share, Free cash flow, Total volume, Total volume at constant currency, Total organic volume at constant currency and eCommerce volume. These measures are not recognized measures under IFRS and do not have standardized meanings prescribed by IFRS and are therefore may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. Rather, these measures are provided as additional information to complement IFRS measures by providing further understanding of our results of operations from our perspective. Accordingly, these measures should not be considered in isolation nor as a substitute for analysis of the Company’s financial information reported under IFRS. These measures are used to provide investors with additional insight of our operating performance and thus highlight trends in Nuvei’s core business that may not otherwise be apparent when relying solely on IFRS measures. We also believe that securities analysts, investors and other interested parties frequently use these non-IFRS and other financial measures in the evaluation of issuers. We also use these measures in order to facilitate operating performance comparisons from period to period, to prepare annual operating budgets and forecasts and to determine components of management compensation. We believe these measures are important additional measures of our performance, primarily because they and similar measures are used widely among others in the payment technology industry as a means of evaluating a company’s underlying operating performance.
Non-IFRS Financial Measures
Revenue at constant currency: In the second quarter of 2022, we introduced a new non-IFRS financial measure to measure our revenue on a constant currency basis. Revenue at constant currency means revenue adjusted for the impact of foreign currency exchange fluctuations. This measure helps provide insight on comparable revenue growth by removing the effect of changes in foreign currency exchange rates year-over-year. Foreign currency exchange impact in the current period is calculated using prior period quarterly average exchange rates applied to the current period foreign currency amounts.
Organic revenue at constant currency: In the second quarter of 2022, we modified the composition of our Organic revenue metric to Organic revenue at constant currency. The only change in the composition of our Organic revenue metric as compared to prior periods is to exclude foreign currency exchange impact on organic revenue. This measure helps provide insight on organic and acquisition-related growth and presents useful information about comparable revenue growth. Organic revenue at constant currency means revenue excluding the revenue attributable to acquired businesses for a period of 12 months following their acquisition and excluding revenue attributable to divested businesses, adjusted for the impact of foreign currency exchange fluctuations. Foreign currency exchange impact in the current period is calculated using prior period quarterly average exchange rates applied to the current period foreign currency amounts. See Reconciliation of Organic Revenue at Constant Currency and Organic Revenue Growth at Constant Currency to Revenue for more detail on the change in composition.
Adjusted EBITDA: We use Adjusted EBITDA as a means to evaluate operating performance, by eliminating the impact of non-operational or non-cash items. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income (loss) before finance costs (recovery), finance income, depreciation and amortization, income tax expense, acquisition, integration and severance costs, share-based payments and related payroll taxes, loss (gain) on foreign currency exchange, and legal settlement and other.
Adjusted net income: We use Adjusted net income as an indicator of business performance and profitability with our current tax and capital structure. Adjusted net income is defined as net income (loss) before acquisition, integration and severance costs, share-based payments and related payroll taxes, loss (gain) on foreign currency exchange, amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets, and the related income tax expense or recovery for these items. Adjusted net income also excludes change in redemption value of liability-classified common and preferred shares, change in fair value of share repurchase liability and accelerated amortization of deferred transaction costs and legal settlement and other.
Free cash flow: We use Free cash flow as a supplementary indicator of our operating performance. Free cash flow means, for any period, Adjusted EBITDA less capital expenditures.
Non-IFRS Financial Ratios
Revenue growth at constant currency: Revenue growth at constant currency means the year-over-year change in Revenue at constant currency divided by reported revenue in the prior period. We use Revenue growth at constant currency to provide better comparability of revenue trends year-over-year, without the impact of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates.
Organic revenue growth at constant currency: Organic revenue growth at constant currency means the year-over-year change in Organic revenue at constant currency divided by comparable Organic revenue in the prior period. We use Organic revenue growth at constant currency to provide better comparability of revenue trends year-over-year, without the impact of acquisitions, divestitures and fluctuations in foreign currency exchanges rates. See Reconciliation of Organic Revenue at Constant Currency and Organic Revenue Growth at Constant Currency to Revenue for more detail on the change in composition.
Adjusted EBITDA margin: Adjusted EBITDA margin means Adjusted EBITDA divided by revenue.
Adjusted net income per basic share and per diluted share: We use Adjusted net income per basic share and per diluted share as an indicator of performance and profitability of our business on a per share basis. Adjusted net income per basic share and per diluted share means Adjusted net income less net income attributable to non-controlling interest divided by the basic and diluted weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. The number of share-based awards used in the diluted weighted average number of common shares outstanding in the Adjusted net income per diluted share calculation is determined using the treasury stock method as permitted under IFRS.
Supplementary Financial Measures
We monitor the following key performance indicators to help us evaluate our business, measure our performance, identify trends affecting our business, formulate business plans and make strategic decisions. Our key performance indicators may be calculated in a manner that differs from similar key performance indicators used by other companies.
Total volume and eCommerce volume: We believe Total volume and eCommerce volume are indicators of performance of our business. Total volume and similar measures are used widely among others in the payments industry as a means of evaluating a company’s performance. We define Total volume as the total dollar value of transactions processed in the period by merchants under contractual agreement with us. eCommerce volume is the portion of Total volume for which the transaction did not occur at a physical location. Total volume and eCommerce volume do not represent revenue earned by us. Total volume includes acquiring volume, where we are in the flow of funds in the settlement transaction cycle, gateway/technology volume, where we provide our gateway/technology services but are not in the flow of funds in the settlement transaction cycle, as well as the total dollar value of transactions processed relating to APMs and payouts. Since our revenue is primarily sales volume and transaction-based, generated from merchants’ daily sales and through various fees for value-added services provided to our merchants, fluctuations in Total volume will generally impact our revenue.
Total volume at constant currency: Total volume at constant currency is used as an indicator of performance of our business on a more comparable foreign currency exchange basis. Total volume at constant currency means Total volume adjusted for the impact of foreign currency exchange fluctuations. This measure helps provide to provide better comparability of business trend year-over-year, without the impact of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. Foreign currency exchange impact in the current period is calculated using prior period quarterly average exchange rates applied to the current period foreign currency amounts.
Total organic volume at constant currency: Total organic volume at constant currency is used as an indicator of performance of our business on a more comparable basis. This measure helps provide insight on organic and acquisition-related growth and presents useful information about comparable Total volume growth. Total organic volume at constant currency means Total volume excluding Total volume attributable to acquired businesses for a period of 12 months following their acquisition and excluding Total volume attributable to divested businesses, adjusted for the impact of foreign currency exchange fluctuations. Foreign currency exchange impact in the current period is calculated using prior period quarterly average exchange rates applied to the current period foreign currency amounts.

Reconciliation of Revenue at Constant Currency and Revenue Growth at Constant Currency to Revenue
In the second quarter of 2022, we introduced this new non-IFRS measure to assess the performance of the business on a more comparable foreign currency exchange basis. Management believes that excluding the impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates will provide better information on the Company's comparable performance year-over-year. The following table reconciles Revenue to Revenue at constant currency and Revenue growth at constant currency for the period indicated:

In the second quarter of 2022, we modified the composition of our Organic revenue metric to Organic revenue at constant currency. The only change in the composition of our Organic revenue metric as compared to prior periods is to exclude foreign currency exchange impact on Organic revenue. Management believes that excluding the impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates will provide better information on the Company's comparable performance year-over-year.
