Financial Performance Overview
The financial report provides a comprehensive analysis of the company’s financial performance for the three months ended March 31, 2025, with a comparison to the same period in 2024. The key highlights are as follows:
Revenue
- Revenue increased by 48.9% to $275.2 million, driven by an increase in the number of transactions processed due to the implementation of new billers and increased transactions from existing billers.
Gross Profit and Margin
- Gross profit increased by 25.2% to $66.0 million.
- Gross margin decreased from 28.5% to 24.0% due to changes in customer mix, with the addition of large, high-volume enterprise billers with lower margins, partially offset by the realization of economies of scale.
Adjusted Gross Profit
- Adjusted gross profit, which excludes non-cash items, increased by 25.9% to $72.6 million, in line with the increase in contribution profit.
- Adjusted gross profit as a percentage of contribution profit decreased modestly due to the changes in customer mix.
Adjusted EBITDA
- Adjusted EBITDA, a measure of profitability, increased by 51.3% to $30.0 million, driven by the growth in transaction count and volume.
Free Cash Flow
- Free cash flow increased significantly to $41.1 million, primarily due to higher cash generated from operations.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
- The company had $245.8 million in unrestricted cash and cash equivalents as of March 31, 2025, which management believes will be sufficient to support its working capital and capital expenditure requirements for at least the next 12 months.
- The company may explore additional financing sources in the future to lower its cost of capital, but cannot assure that additional financing will be available on acceptable terms.
Overall, the company’s financial performance for the three months ended March 31, 2025 showed strong growth in revenue, profitability, and cash flow, driven by the expansion of its biller and financial institution customer base and increased transaction volume. However, the company’s gross margin declined due to changes in customer mix, which management is working to address.
