Strong Financial Performance and Continued Growth

ALPHARETTA, Ga.–(BUSINESS WIRE)– Priority Technology Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ: PRTH) (“Priority” or the “Company”), a leading provider of merchant acquiring, integrated payment software and commercial payment solutions, today announced its third quarter financial results including strong year-over-year revenue growth of 16.1% and deleveraging during the quarter of $124 million.

Highlights of Consolidated Results

Third Quarter 2020, Compared with Third Quarter 2019

Financial highlights of the third quarter of 2020 compared with the third quarter of 2019, are as follows:

  • Revenue of $109.0 million increased 16.1% from $93.9 million.
  • Gross profit (a non-GAAP measure1) of $34.0 million increased 12.7% from $30.2 million.
  • Gross profit margin (a non-GAAP measure1) of 31.2% decreased 94 basis points from 32.1%.
  • Income from operations of $7.0 million increased 158.4% from $2.7 million.
  • Pre-tax gain from the sale of the RentPayment business, net of non-controlling interests (“NCIs”), was $62.1 million.
  • Net income of $40.4 million increased $46.2 million from a loss of $5.8 million.
  • Adjusted EBITDA (a non-GAAP measure1) of $19.6 million increased 28.1% from $15.3 million.
  • Net debt (total debt less unrestricted cash) of $370.4 million at September 30, 2020 – a decrease of $123.6 million from $494.0 million at June 30, 2020.
  • Total net leverage ratio of 6.16x at September 30, 2020 decreased from 7.46x at June 30, 20202.

(1) See “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” and the reconciliations of Gross Profit, Gross Profit Margin, and Adjusted EBITDA to their most comparable GAAP measures provided below for additional information.
(2) Calculation of Total Net Leverage Ratio is provided in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in Item 2 of our Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2020.

“Our strong results this quarter demonstrate continued resilience during this pandemic, and by all key metrics, validate the differentiation of our platform,” said Tom Priore, Chairman and CEO. “The execution of the transaction with MRI Software this quarter not only reduced debt by over $100 million, it will improve annual cashflow and established a multi-year processing partnership with a global leader in real estate software solutions.”

“The year-over-year revenue growth of our core business of 20% and our CPX accounts payable solutions of 7% in these challenging economic times are real testaments to the countercyclical nature of our platform. Our commercial and consumer payments teams have performed exceptionally well. We expect the momentum of our integrated product and payment infrastructure as a service offering to drive similar growth in the fourth quarter and continued deleveraging.”

Priore concluded, “We clearly achieved our goals this quarter, producing strong top-line revenue growth, captured expense reduction through automation and diligent management and deleveraged our balance sheet. While the future economic and operating environment remains uncertain, we are encouraged by the performance across our segments and believe we are poised for sustainable long-term results. We are forecasting our fourth quarter 2020 results to match, if not exceed, the performance delivered in the third quarter of 2020, excluding the RentPayment results.”

Discussion of Results

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in Item 2 of our Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2020 provides a thorough discussion of our third quarter 2020 results.

Consolidated revenue in the third quarter of 2020 of $109.0 million increased $15.1 million, or 16.1%, from $93.9 million in the third quarter of 2019. Revenue growth of $16.6 million, or 20.0%, in our Consumer Payments segment was partially offset by revenue declines of $1.3 million and $0.1 million in our Commercial Payments and Integrated Partners segments.

Consolidated income from operations in the third quarter of 2020 of $7.0 million increased $4.3 million, or 158.4%, from $2.7 million in the third quarter of 2019. Gross profit increased $3.8 million, salary and employee benefits decreased $0.7 million, and depreciation and amortization increased $0.2 million in the third quarter of 2020 compared with the third quarter of 2019. Selling, general and administrative expenses were flat and the third quarter of 2020 included a $1.0 million non-cash write-down of an intangible asset in the Consumer Payments segment.

Pro Forma

The following table provides a summary of the pro forma results for the three and the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, excluding the RentPayment business sold to MRI Software (“MRI”) in September 2020. The RentPayment amounts are historical and do not include a pro forma adjustment for revenue and income to be earned from ongoing payment infrastructure as a service and processing to MRI’s new platform.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This communication includes certain non-GAAP financial measures that we regularly review to evaluate our business and trends, measure our performance, prepare financial projections, allocate resources, and make strategic decisions. We believe these non-GAAP measures help to illustrate the underlying financial and business trends relating to our results of operations and comparability between current and prior periods. We also use these non-GAAP measures to establish and monitor operational goals. However, these non-GAAP measures are not superior to or a substitute for prominent measurements calculated in accordance with GAAP. Rather, the non-GAAP measures are meant to be a complement to understanding measures prepared in accordance with GAAP.

Gross Profit and Gross Profit Margin

The Company’s non-GAAP gross profit metric represents revenues less costs of services. Gross profit margin is gross profit divided by revenues. We review these non-GAAP measures to evaluate our underlying profit trends. The reconciliation of gross profit to its most comparable GAAP measure is provided below:

EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA

EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA are performance measures. EBITDA is earnings before interest, income tax, and depreciation and amortization expenses (“EBITDA”). Adjusted EBITDA begins with EBITDA but further excludes certain non-cash costs, such as stock-based compensation and/or the write-off of the carrying value of investments or other assets, as well as debt extinguishment and modification expenses and other expenses and income items considered non-recurring, such as acquisition integration expenses, certain professional fees, and litigation settlements. Consolidated adjusted EBITDA, which is a liquidity measure used in determining our total net leverage ratio, is adjusted EBITDA further adjusted for items specified in the definition of consolidated adjusted EBITDA within our debt agreements, which include the pro-forma impact of acquisitions and/or dispositions and other specified adjustments. We review the non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA measure to evaluate our business and trends, measure our performance, prepare financial projections, allocate resources, and make strategic decisions. We review the non-GAAP consolidated adjusted EBITDA to evaluate compliance with our total net leverage ratio at each measurement period.

Adjusted EBITDA was $19.6 million in the third quarter of 2020 and $15.3 million in the third quarter of 2019. Non-operating results in the third quarter of 2020 included $62.1 million of pre-tax gain on the sale of the RentPayment business, net of NCIs and $1.5 million of early debt extinguishment expense. Selling, general and administrative expenses included net non-recurring expenses in the third quarters of 2020 and 2019 of $1.8 million and $1.2 million, respectively. Salary and employee benefits included non-cash stock-based compensation of $0.6 million and $1.2 million in the third quarters of 2020 and 2019, respectively.

Priority does not provide a reconciliation of forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures to their comparable GAAP financial measures because it could not do so without unreasonable effort due to the unavailability of the information needed to calculate reconciling items and due to the variability, complexity and limited visibility of the adjusting items that would be excluded from the non-GAAP financial measures in future periods. When planning, forecasting and analyzing future periods, the Company does so primarily on a non-GAAP basis without preparing a GAAP analysis as that would require estimates for various cash and non-cash reconciling items that would be difficult to predict with reasonable accuracy. For example, stock-based compensation expense would be difficult to estimate because it depends on the Company’s future hiring and retention needs, as well as the future fair market value of the Company’s common stock, all of which are difficult to predict and subject to constant change. As a result, the Company does not believe that a GAAP reconciliation would provide meaningful supplemental information about the Company’s outlook.
