CPI Card Group Inc. Reports Second Quarter 2022 Results

Net Sales Increased 22% to $113 Million; Net Income Decreased 1% to $6 Million; Adjusted EBITDA Increased 2% to $20 Million

Strong Demand for Eco-focused Cards and SaaS-based Instant Issuance Solutions Drove Second Quarter Sales Growth

Company Increases 2022 Outlook for Net Sales and Adjusted EBITDA

LITTLETON, Colo.--()--CPI Card Group Inc. (Nasdaq: PMTS) (“CPI” or the “Company”), a payment technology company and leading provider of credit, debit, and prepaid solutions, today reported financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2022 and updated its financial outlook for 2022.

Second quarter net sales increased 22% to $113.3 million, another record sales quarter for the Company. Growth was led by the Debit and Credit segment, which benefited from strong customer demand for contactless cards and instant issuance solutions. Net income decreased 1% to $6.2 million and Adjusted EBITDA increased 2% to $19.7 million, driven by the strong sales growth and operating leverage, offset by inflationary impacts on costs and higher compensation-related expenses.

“Strong customer demand for our portfolio of high-quality payment offerings drove outstanding sales growth in the second quarter” said Scott Scheirman, President and Chief Executive Officer of CPI. “We continue to win with our innovative products and services and end-to-end solutions, and we are pleased to be able to increase our full-year financial outlook.”

The Company now expects high teens net sales growth and low double-digit Adjusted EBITDA growth for the full year, an increase from the previous outlook of low double-digit growth for net sales and mid-to-high single-digit growth for Adjusted EBITDA. The full-year Adjusted EBITDA margin is still expected to be slightly below 20%. The Company expects strong sales growth in its Debit and Credit segment for the year and Prepaid Debit segment sales near the record level in 2021.

CPI is a top payment solutions provider in the U.S. serving thousands of banks, credit unions and FinTechs. The Company is a leader in the U.S. markets for eco-focused payment cards, personalization and Software-as-a-Service-based instant issuance solutions for small and medium U.S. financial institutions and retail prepaid debit card solutions, and maintains longstanding customer relationships.

The Company expects long-term market growth to be aided by the gradual transition to higher-priced contactless cards, including eco-focused cards, as well as continued financial payment card growth. Visa and Mastercard® U.S. credit, debit and prepaid cards in circulation have increased at a compound annual growth rate of 9% over the three-year period ended March 31, 2022, based on figures released by the networks.

Year-to-date 2022 Business Highlights

  • Generated incremental net sales from customer demand for higher-priced contactless cards, as the U.S. payment card market continues its gradual transition to contactless solutions.
  • Continued to be a leading provider of eco-focused payment card solutions in the U.S. Through the end of the second quarter of 2022, the Company has sold nearly 80 million eco-focused cards since launch in late 2019.
  • Experienced ongoing high demand for Card@Once® Software-as-a-Service-based instant issuance solutions. The Company has nearly 14,000 Card@Once® installations across approximately 1,900 financial institutions in the U.S.
  • Reduced the outstanding balance on the Company’s 8.625% senior secured notes by redeeming $20 million of notes and increased its ABL revolving credit facility from $50 million to $75 million in the first quarter. The Company’s Net Leverage Ratio was 4x at June 30, 2022.

Second Quarter 2022 Financial Highlights

Net sales increased 22% year-over-year to $113.3 million in the second quarter of 2022.

  • Debit and Credit segment net sales increased 29% to $94.2 million. Growth was primarily driven by increased sales of higher-priced contactless cards, including eco-focused cards and the related personalization, and Card@Once® instant issuance solutions.
  • Prepaid Debit segment net sales declined 6% to $19.2 million. Prior year sales benefited from the onboarding of new customer portfolios and retail inventory replenishment.

Second quarter gross profit increased 9% to $40.6 million and gross profit margin was 35.8%, which compared to 39.8% in the prior year second quarter. The year-over-year decrease in gross profit margin was primarily due to inflationary impacts on costs, partially offset by operating leverage from higher net sales.

Year-over-year, income from operations decreased 5% to $15.1 million; net income decreased 1% to $6.2 million, or $0.52 diluted earnings per share; and Adjusted EBITDA increased 2% to $19.7 million.

Profitability benefited from higher net sales and the resulting operating leverage, with offsets from increased materials costs and higher SG&A expenses, including higher compensation-related expenses. Net income also benefited from a lower effective tax rate in the quarter.

First Half 2022 Financial Highlights

Net sales increased 23% year-over-year to $224.7 million in the first half of 2022.

  • Debit and Credit segment net sales increased 31% to $186.2 million. Growth was primarily driven by increased sales of higher-priced contactless cards, including eco-focused cards; Card@Once® instant issuance solutions; and personalization services related to contactless cards.
  • Prepaid Debit segment net sales declined 3% to $38.7 million. Prior year sales benefited from the onboarding of new customer portfolios and retail inventory replenishment.

First half gross profit increased 10% to $79.8 million and gross profit margin was 35.5%, which compared to 39.9% in the prior year first half. The year-over-year decrease in gross profit margin was primarily due to inflationary impacts on costs, partially offset by increased operating leverage from higher net sales.

Year-over-year, income from operations declined 2% to $33.0 million; net income increased 41% to $12.2 million, or $1.04 diluted earnings per share; and Adjusted EBITDA increased 2% to $42.2 million.

Profitability benefited from higher net sales and the resulting operating leverage, partially offset by increased materials and labor costs and higher SG&A expenses, including increased compensation-related expenses and compliance costs related to Sarbanes-Oxley. The increase in net income was aided by the comparison to significant debt refinancing costs incurred in the 2021 first quarter.

Balance Sheet, Liquidity, and Cash Flow

As of June 30, 2022, cash and cash equivalents was $9.1 million. Cash from operating activities in the first half of 2022 was a usage of $8.1 million and capital expenditures were $8.2 million, yielding Free Cash Flow usage of $16.3 million. This compared to $22.7 million of cash from operating activities and $19.0 million of Free Cash Flow generated in the first half of 2021, which included $6.0 million in cash tax refunds, primarily related to CARES Act filings. The working capital usage in the 2022 first half was primarily driven by a $18 million increase in inventories to support customer demand and a $12 million increase in accounts receivable as a result of higher sales. The Company expects improved Free Cash Flow in the second half of the year.

The Company had $290 million of 8.625% senior secured notes due 2026 and $25 million of borrowings from its ABL revolving credit facility outstanding at quarter-end. The revolving credit facility proceeds were utilized to fund the $20 million notes redemption in the first quarter, at a redemption price equal to 103% of par value plus accrued and unpaid interest, and working capital needs.

The Company’s capital structure and allocation priorities are to maintain ample liquidity; invest in the business, including strategic acquisitions; deleverage the balance sheet; and return funds to stockholders.

“We delivered sound profitability despite persistent inflationary pressures on costs,” said Amintore Schenkel, Chief Financial Officer of CPI. “For the second half of the year, we expect margin improvement relative to the second quarter and strong cash flow generation.”

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to financial results reported in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), we have provided the following non-GAAP financial measures in this release, all reported on a continuing operations basis: EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, Free Cash Flow, LTM Adjusted EBITDA and Net Leverage Ratio. These non-GAAP financial measures are utilized by management in comparing our operating performance on a consistent basis between fiscal periods. We believe that these financial measures are appropriate to enhance an overall understanding of our underlying operating performance trends compared to historical and prospective periods and our peers. Management also believes that these measures are useful to investors in their analysis of our results of operations and provide improved comparability between fiscal periods. Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial information calculated in accordance with GAAP. Our non-GAAP measures may be different from similarly titled measures of other companies. Investors are encouraged to review the reconciliation of these historical non-GAAP measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures included in Exhibit E to this press release.

Adjusted EBITDA

Adjusted EBITDA is presented on a continuing operations basis and is defined as EBITDA (which represents earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization) adjusted for litigation; stock-based compensation expense; estimated sales tax expense, restructuring and other charges; loss on debt extinguishment; foreign currency gain or loss; litigation settlement gain; and other items that are unusual in nature, infrequently occurring or not considered part of our core operations, as set forth in the reconciliation in Exhibit E. Adjusted EBITDA is intended to show our unleveraged, pre-tax operating results and therefore reflects our financial performance based on operational factors, excluding non-operational, unusual or non-recurring losses or gains. Adjusted EBITDA has important limitations as an analytical tool, and you should not consider it in isolation, or as a substitute for, analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. For example, Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect: (a) our capital expenditures, future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments; (b) changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs; (c) the significant interest expenses or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments on our debt; (d) tax payments that represent a reduction in cash available to us; (e) any cash requirements for the assets being depreciated and amortized that may have to be replaced in the future; (f) the impact of earnings or charges resulting from matters that we and the lenders under our credit agreement may not consider indicative of our ongoing operations; or (g) the impact of any discontinued operations. In particular, our definition of Adjusted EBITDA allows us to add back certain non-operating, unusual or non-recurring charges that are deducted in calculating net income, even though these are expenses that may recur, vary greatly and are difficult to predict and can represent the effect of long-term strategies as opposed to short-term results. In addition, certain of these expenses represent the reduction of cash that could be used for other purposes. Adjusted EBITDA margin percentage as shown in Exhibit E is computed as Adjusted EBITDA divided by total net sales.

We define LTM Adjusted EBITDA as Adjusted EBITDA (defined previously) for the last twelve months. LTM Adjusted EBITDA is used in the computation of Net Leverage Ratio, and is reconciled in Exhibit E.

Free Cash Flow

We define Free Cash Flow as cash flow provided by (used in) operating activities (continuing operations) less capital expenditures. We use this metric in analyzing our ability to service and repay our debt. However, this measure does not represent funds available for investment or other discretionary uses since it does not deduct cash used to service our debt, nor does it reflect the cash impacts of our discontinued operations. Free Cash Flow should not be considered in isolation, or as a substitute for, cash (used in) provided by operating activities or any other measures of liquidity derived in accordance with GAAP.

Financial Expectations for 2022

We have provided Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin expectations for 2022 on a non-GAAP basis because certain reconciling items are dependent on future events that either cannot be controlled or cannot be reliably predicted because they are not part of the Company’s routine activities, any of which could be significant.

Net Leverage Ratio

Management and various investors use the ratio of debt principal outstanding, plus finance lease obligations, less cash, divided by LTM Adjusted EBITDA, or “Net Leverage Ratio”, as a measure of our financial strength when making key investment decisions and evaluating us against peers.
