“The growing success at USA Technologies validates that the self-service retail market is moving toward the acceptance and adoption of cashless payments,” said Stephen P. Herbert, USA Technologies’ chairman and chief executive officer. “This is an exciting time for us as we see major customers move toward migrating all of their machines to the ePort Connect service, as we simultaneously increase our customer base. With the acquisition of VendScreen we are driving additional value to each connection with the most advanced cloud based interactive content delivery system for the self-service market. We are enthusiastic about the traction we have made this quarter and our organic growth, coupled with the increasing operating leverage, underpin our confidence that USAT will continue to deliver strong results.”

Fiscal 2016 Outlook

For full fiscal year 2016, management expects to add more than 75,000 net new connections, bringing total connections on the service to over 400,000 and expects total revenue to be between $69 million and $71 million. Additionally, we anticipate that QuickStart will remain a popular program for customers, and management expects it to drive positive free cash flows in fiscal year 2016. We also expect to have year-over-year increases of adjusted EBITDA and non-GAAP net income.

NEW ACCOUNTING CLASSIFICATION

Commencing with the September 30, 2015 financial statements, the Company changed the manner in which it presents certain uncollected customer accounts receivable and the related allowance in its consolidated balance sheets and the related statements of cash flows. These accounts receivable represent a large number of small balance amounts due from customers for processing and service fees which had not been billed to customers, and as to which, there had been no customer transaction proceeds from which the Company could collect the amounts due in accordance with its normal procedures. The previous accounting classification recorded these amounts as a reduction of its accounts payable in the consolidated balance sheets and the related statements of cash flows. The new accounting classification moves these amounts to accounts receivable and allowance for bad debt.

Accordingly, the respective balances for all prior periods presented in these financial statements were reclassified in order to be consistent and comparable to the accounting treatment of these items in our December 31, 2015 financial statements. The new accounting classification as well as the reclassification for prior periods had no effect on the consolidated statements of operations or the consolidated statements of shareholders’ equity.

Discussion of Non-GAAP Financial Measures:

This press release contains certain non-GAAP financial measures. Generally, a non-GAAP financial measure is a numerical measure of a company's performance, financial position or cash flows that either excludes or includes amounts that are not normally excluded or included in the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. Reconciliations between non-GAAP and GAAP measures are set forth above in Financial Schedules (E) and (J).

The following non-GAAP financial measures are discussed herein: adjusted EBITDA, non-GAAP net income (loss) and non-GAAP net earnings (loss) per common share – basic and diluted. The presentation of these additional financial measures is not intended to be considered in isolation from, or superior to, or as a substitute for the financial measures prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP (Generally Accepted Accounting Principles), including the net income or net loss of USAT or net cash used in operating activities. Management recognizes that non-GAAP financial measures have limitations in that they do not reflect all of the items associated with USAT's net income or net loss as determined in accordance with GAAP. These non-GAAP financial measures are not required by or defined under GAAP and may be materially different from the non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. USAT has provided above in Financial Schedules (E) and (J) the reconciliations of the non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures.

As used herein, non-GAAP net income represents GAAP net income (loss) excluding costs or benefits relating to any adjustment for fair value of warrant liabilities, non-cash portions of the Company’s income tax benefit (provision), and nonrecurring professional service fees recorded in SG&A that were incurred in connection with the VendScreen transaction. Non-GAAP net earnings (loss) per common share - diluted is calculated by dividing non-GAAP net income (loss) applicable to common shares by the number of diluted weighted average shares outstanding.

Management believes that non-GAAP net income (loss) and non-GAAP net earnings (loss) per common share - diluted are important measures of USAT's business. Management uses the aforementioned non-GAAP measures to monitor and evaluate ongoing operating results and trends and to gain an understanding of our comparative operating performance. We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures serve as useful metrics for our management and investors because they enable a better understanding of the long-term performance of our core business and facilitate comparisons of our operating results over multiple periods, and when taken together with the corresponding GAAP financial measures and our reconciliations, enhance investors' overall understanding of our current and future financial performance.

Adjusted EBITDA represents net income (loss) before interest income, interest expense, income taxes, depreciation, amortization, nonrecurring professional service fees recorded in SG&A that were incurred in connection with the VendScreen transaction, change in fair value of warrant liabilities and stock-based compensation expense. We have excluded the non-operating item, change in fair value of warrant liabilities, because it represents a non-cash gain or (charge) that is not related to USAT's operations. We have excluded the non-cash expense, stock-based compensation, as it does not reflect the cash-based operations of USAT. We have excluded the nonrecurring professional service fees incurred in connection with the VendScreen transaction in order to allow more accurate comparisons of the financial results to historical operations. Adjusted EBITDA is presented because we believe it is useful to investors as a measure of comparative operating performance and liquidity, and because it allows management and investors to consider the ongoing operations of the business both with, and without, such expenses.
