PASADENA, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Green Dot Corporation (NYSE:GDOT), today reported financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2015.
For the second quarter of 2015, Green Dot reported growth of 16% and 15% year-over-year in consolidated GAAP and non-GAAP total operating revenues1 to $170.2 million and $170.8 million, respectively, and a decrease of 6% in adjusted EBITDA to $34.2 million. Green Dot also reported $0.06 in GAAP diluted earnings per share and $0.28 in non-GAAP diluted earnings per share1, representing an 81% and 32% year-over-year decrease, respectively.
GAAP and Non-GAAP results during the second quarter of 2015 were negatively impacted by our legacy business generating lower net revenues year-over-year despite a similar cost base, and the fact that we absorbed two months’ worth of the new Walmart commission rates in the quarter. Additionally, we reported an increase in depreciation and amortization, mainly as a consequence of previously adopting an increased capitalization rate of internal use software development, higher net interest expense and an increase in the effective tax rate versus last year. Furthermore, the Company had 7.9 million additional fully diluted shares year-over-year attributable primarily to acquisitions subsequent to the second quarter of 2014.
Net cash provided by operating activities in the quarter totaled $31.9 million. As of June 30, 2015, Green Dot’s consolidated balance sheet held total cash and investment securities of $963.0 million, which is 13% higher than at the same time last year.
"These results exceeded our stated expectations for non-GAAP total operating revenue, adjusted EBITDA and non-GAAP EPS for the quarter. I’m pleased with how we’ve navigated through Q2 and the first half of the year in general given the larger than expected headwinds associated with the discontinuation of the MoneyPak PIN product. Our strong consolidated results are the result of our company now having multiple products; not just prepaid, delivered through multiple channels; not just retail, and having high margin businesses like processing, complementing lower margin businesses, like bank accounts, We think these results help to illustrate how Green Dot has evolved in recent years to become a growing, technology-centric and diversified branchless bank with a loyal, sticky and increasingly high-quality customer base. Of course, we have much work left to do, but we feel good about where we are as a company and we feel optimistic about the long-term prospects for our business,” said Steve Streit, Green Dot Chairman and Chief Executive Officer.
Consolidated GAAP financial results for the second quarter of 2015 compared to the second quarter of 2014:
- Total operating revenues on a generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) basis increased 16% to $170.2 million for the second quarter of 2015 from $147.0 million for the second quarter of 2014
- GAAP net income decreased 76% to $3.5 million for the second quarter of 2015 from $14.3 million for the second quarter of 2014.
- GAAP basic and diluted earnings per common share were $0.07 and $0.06 for the second quarter of 2015 versus $0.32 and $0.31 for the second quarter of 2014, representing a decrease of 78% and 81%, respectively
- GAAP results during the second quarter of 2015 were negatively impacted by amortization of $5.9 million, or $0.06 per diluted earnings per common share associated with acquired intangible assets from our recent acquisitions, and an impairment charge of internal-use software of $5.0 million, or $0.05 per diluted earnings per common share, neither of which were present in the comparable prior year period results
Consolidated non-GAAP financial results for the second quarter of 2015 compared to the second quarter of 2014:1

Green Dot Acting CFO Mark Shifke stated, “Over the past 4 weeks, we have been encouraged by the trends we are seeing in our unit sales of cash transfers, unit sales of new cards and card retention rates. Although future uncertainty still remains, these trends would seem to indicate that we are beginning to see a leveling off of the MoneyPak headwinds. Nevertheless, if these trends continue at their current level, we will end the year below our current revenue guidance. As it relates to our adjusted EBITDA and non-GAAP EPS forecast, we continue to perform much better. Despite absorbing eight months of the new Walmart commission rates and the lower than forecast revenue for the full year, we still expect to be within our originally guided adjusted EBITDA and non-GAAP EPS ranges, albeit at the lower end. As such, we are refining our guidance to bring down our revenue range while narrowing our adjusted EBITDA and non-GAAP EPS ranges to reflect our latest information.”
Updated Outlook for 2015
Non-GAAP Total Operating Revenues2:
- Green Dot now expects full-year non-GAAP total operating revenues in the range of $700-$720 million, versus its previous guidance range of $720-$740 million.

Adjusted EBITDA2:
- The Company now expects its adjusted EBITDA2 for the full year in the range of $150-$160 million, versus its original guidance range of $150-$170 million.
- For Q3, Green Dot expects adjusted EBITDA2 of approximately $18 million.
Non-GAAP EPS2:
- Green Dot now expects its non-GAAP EPS2 for the full year in the range of $1.24-1.35, versus its original guidance range of $1.24-$1.47.
- For Q3, Green Dot expects non-GAAP EPS2 of approximately $0.07.

To supplement the Company’s consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with GAAP, the Company uses measures of operating results that are adjusted to exclude various, primarily non-cash, expenses and charges. These financial measures are not calculated or presented in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered as alternatives to or substitutes for operating revenues, operating income, net income or any other measure of financial performance calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. These financial measures may not be comparable to similarly-titled measures of other organizations because other organizations may not calculate their measures in the same manner as we do. These financial measures are adjusted to eliminate the impact of items that the Company does not consider indicative of its core operating performance. You are encouraged to evaluate these adjustments and the reasons we consider them appropriate. |
|
The Company believes that the non-GAAP financial measures it presents are useful to investors in evaluating the Company’s operating performance for the following reasons:
- stock-based retailer incentive compensation is a non-cash GAAP accounting charge that is an offset to the Company’s actual revenues from operations as the Company has historically calculated them. This charge results from the monthly lapsing of the Company’s right to repurchase a portion of the 2,208,552 shares it issued to its largest distributor, Walmart, in May 2010. By adding back this charge to the Company’s GAAP 2010 and future total operating revenues, investors can make direct comparisons of the Company’s revenues from operations prior to and after May 2010 and thus more easily perceive trends in the Company’s core operations. Further, because the monthly charge is based on the then-current fair market value of the shares as to which the Company’s repurchase right lapses, adding back this charge eliminates fluctuations in the Company’s operating revenues caused by variations in its stock price and thus provides insight on the operating revenues directly associated with those core operations;
- the Company records employee stock-based compensation from period to period, and recorded employee stock-based compensation expenses of approximately $6.4 million and $4.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. By comparing the Company’s adjusted EBITDA, non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP diluted earnings per share in different historical periods, investors can evaluate the Company’s operating results without the additional variations caused by employee stock-based compensation expense, which may not be comparable from period to period due to changes in the fair market value of the Company’s Class A common stock (which is influenced by external factors like the volatility of public markets and the financial performance of the Company’s peers) and is not a key measure of the Company’s operations;
- adjusted EBITDA is widely used by investors to measure a company’s operating performance without regard to items, such as interest expense, income tax expense, depreciation and amortization, employee stock-based compensation expense, stock-based retailer incentive compensation expense, contingent consideration, other charges, transaction costs, and impairment charges that can vary substantially from company to company depending upon their respective financing structures and accounting policies, the book values of their assets, their capital structures and the methods by which their assets were acquired; and
- securities analysts use adjusted EBITDA as a supplemental measure to evaluate the overall operating performance of companies.
The Company’s management uses the non-GAAP financial measures:
- as measures of operating performance, because they exclude the impact of items not directly resulting from the Company’s core operations;
- for planning purposes, including the preparation of the Company’s annual operating budget;
- to allocate resources to enhance the financial performance of the Company’s business;
- to evaluate the effectiveness of the Company’s business strategies; and
- in communications with the Company’s board of directors concerning the Company’s financial performance.
The Company understands that, although adjusted EBITDA and other non-GAAP financial measures are frequently used by investors and securities analysts in their evaluations of companies, these measures have limitations as an analytical tool, and you should not consider them in isolation or as substitutes for analysis of the Company’s results of operations as reported under GAAP. Some of these limitations are:
- that these measures do not reflect the Company’s capital expenditures or future requirements for capital expenditures or other contractual commitments;
- that these measures do not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, the Company’s working capital needs;
- that these measures do not reflect interest expense or interest income;
- that these measures do not reflect cash requirements for income taxes;
- that, although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated or amortized will often have to be replaced in the future, and these measures do not reflect any cash requirements for these replacements; and
- that other companies in the Company’s industry may calculate these measures differently than the Company does, limiting their usefulness as comparative measures.

This expense consists of the recorded fair value of the shares of Class A common stock for which the Company’s right to repurchase has lapsed pursuant to the terms of the May 2010 agreement under which they were issued to Wal-Mart Stores, Inc., a contra-revenue component of the Company’s total operating revenues. The Company does not believe these non-cash expenses are reflective of ongoing operating results. Our right to repurchase any shares issued to Walmart fully lapsed during the three months ended June 30, 2015. As a result, we will no longer recognize stock-based retailer incentive compensation in future periods. |
|
(3) |
This expense consists of certain co-op advertising costs recognized as contra-revenue under GAAP. The Company believes the substance of the costs incurred are a result of advertising and is not reflective of ongoing total operating revenues. The Company believes that excluding co-op advertising costs from total operating revenues facilitates the comparison of our financial results to the Company's historical operating results. Prior to 2015, the Company did not have any co-op advertising costs recorded as contra-revenue. |
|
(4) |
The Company does not include any income tax impact of the associated non-GAAP adjustment to non-GAAP total operating revenues or adjusted EBITDA, as the case may be, because each of these non-GAAP financial measures is provided before income tax expense. |
|
(5) |
This expense consists primarily of expenses for employee stock options and restricted stock units. Employee stock-based compensation expense is not comparable from period to period due to changes in the fair market value of the Company’s Class A common stock (which is influenced by external factors like the volatility of public markets and the financial performance of the Company’s peers) and is not a key measure of the Company’s operations. The Company excludes employee stock-based compensation expense from its non-GAAP financial measures primarily because it consists of non-cash expenses that the Company does not believe are reflective of ongoing operating results. Further, the Company believes that it is useful to investors to understand the impact of employee stock-based compensation to its results of operations. |
|
(6) |
The Company excludes certain income and expenses that are the result of acquisitions. These acquisition related adjustments include the amortization of acquired intangible assets, changes in the fair value of contingent consideration, settlements of contingencies established at time of acquisition and other acquisition related charges, such as integration charges and professional and legal fees, which result in the Company recording expenses or fair value adjustments in its GAAP financial statements. The Company analyzes the performance of its operations without regard to these adjustments. In determining whether any acquisition related adjustment is appropriate, the Company takes into consideration, among other things, how such adjustments would or would not aid in the understanding of the performance of its operations. |
|
(7) |
The Company excludes certain income and expenses that are not reflective of ongoing operating results. It is difficult to estimate the amount or timing of these items in advance. Although these events are reflected in the Company's GAAP financial statements, the Company excludes them in it's non-GAAP financial measures because the Company believes these items may limit the comparability of ongoing operations with prior and future periods. These adjustments include amortization attributable to deferred financing costs, impairment charges related to internal-use software and other charges related to gain or loss contingencies. In determining whether any such adjustments is appropriate, the Company takes into consideration, among other things, how such adjustments would or would not aid in the understanding of the performance of its operations. |

Represents the tax effect for the related non-GAAP measure adjustments using the Company's year to date effective tax rate. |
|
(9) |
These amounts represent estimated adjustments for net interest income, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, employee stock-based compensation expense, stock-based retailer incentive compensation expense, contingent consideration, other income and expenses and transaction costs. Employee stock-based compensation expense and stock-based retailer incentive compensation expense include assumptions about the future fair market value of the Company’s Class A common stock (which is influenced by external factors like the volatility of public markets and the financial performance of the Company’s peers). |
