ATLANTA--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Repay Holdings Corporation (NASDAQ: RPAY) (“REPAY” or the “Company”), a leading provider of vertically-integrated payment solutions, today reported financial results for its first quarter ended March 31, 2026.

(1)	During the second and fourth quarter of 2025, Net loss was impacted by a $103.8 million and a $138.9 million goodwill impairment loss, respectively, primarily related to the Consumer Payments segment. Further information about this non-cash impairment loss can be found in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025.
(2)	Adjusted EBITDA, Free Cash Flow and Free Cash Flow Conversion are non-GAAP financial measures. See “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” and the reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA, Free Cash Flow and Free Cash Flow Conversion to their most comparable GAAP measure provided below for additional information.

"REPAY exited 2025 with solid momentum and had a great start to the year," John Morris, Chief Executive Officer of REPAY. "Our growth is driven by implementing new enterprise clients who are adopting more payment channels and modalities. We have seen strong interest in our Digital Wallet capabilities. We remain focused on accelerating towards double-digit growth with strong profitability. The REPAY of tomorrow is built to scale. We are working towards closing the KUBRA acquisition during the second quarter and remain confident about the strength of our post-acquisition market position and what that means for creating long-term value."

First Quarter 2026 Business Highlights

The Company's achievements in the quarter, including those highlighted below, reinforce management's belief in the ability of the Company to drive durable and long-term growth across REPAY's diversified business model.

• Reported revenue growth and normalized revenue growth¹ of 4% year-over-year
• Consumer Payments revenue growth was 4% year-over-year
• Business Payments revenue growth was 18% year-over-year
• Added three new integrated software partners to bring the total to 297 software relationships as of the end of the first quarter
• Accelerated AP supplier network to over 665,000, an increase of approximately 70% year-over-year

^1 Normalized revenue growth is a non-GAAP financial measure that accounts for cyclical political media spending contributions. See “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” and the reconciliation to its most comparable GAAP measure provided below for additional information.

2026 Outlook Update

“After a strong start to the year and execution on our strategic initiatives, we are raising our 2026 Adjusted EBITDA outlook to reflect approximately 42% Adjusted EBITDA margins,” said Robert Houser, Chief Financial Officer of REPAY. "We have strong confidence in achieving double-digit Revenue growth with Free Cash Conversion of 45%. We look forward to closing the KUBRA acquisition in the coming weeks. The 2026 outlook does not include any contributions or expenditures related to the pending KUBRA acquisition."

As we previously provided in the Preliminary Q1 Press Release on April 27th, REPAY updated its outlook for full year 2026. REPAY reiterates the 2026 outlook presented at that time and expects the following financial results for full year 2026.

	Initial Full Year 2026 Outlook from March 9th	Updated Full Year 2026 Outlook
Revenue	$340 - 346 million	$340 - 346 million
Adjusted EBITDA	$136.5 - 141.5 million	$141 - 146 million
Free Cash Flow Conversion	45%	45%

REPAY does not provide quantitative reconciliation of forward-looking, non-GAAP financial measures, such as Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin and Free Cash Flow Conversion, to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, because it is difficult to reliably predict or estimate the relevant components without unreasonable effort due to future uncertainties that may potentially have a significant impact on such calculations, and providing them may imply a degree of precision that would be confusing or potentially misleading.

Segments

The Company reports its financial results based on two reportable segments.

Consumer Payments – The Consumer Payments segment provides payment processing solutions (including debit and credit card processing, Automated Clearing House (“ACH”) processing and other electronic payment acceptance solutions, as well as REPAY’s loan disbursement product) that enable REPAY’s clients to collect payments from and disburse funds to consumers and includes its clearing and settlement solutions (“RCS”). RCS is REPAY’s proprietary clearing and settlement platform through which it markets customizable payment processing programs to other ISOs and payment facilitators. The strategic vertical markets served by the Consumer Payments segment primarily include personal loans, automotive loans, receivables management, credit unions, mortgage servicing, consumer healthcare and diversified retail.

Business Payments – The Business Payments segment provides payment processing solutions (including accounts payable automation, debit and credit card processing, virtual credit card processing, ACH processing and other electronic payment acceptance solutions) that enable REPAY’s clients to collect payments from or send payments to other businesses. The strategic vertical markets served within the Business Payments segment primarily include retail automotive, education, field services, governments and municipalities, healthcare, media, homeowner association management and hospitality.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This report includes certain non-GAAP financial measures that management uses to evaluate the Company’s operating business, measure performance, and make strategic decisions. Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure that represents net income prior to interest expense, tax expense, depreciation and amortization, as adjusted to add back certain charges deemed to not be part of normal operating expenses, non-cash charges and/or non-recurring charges, such as gain on extinguishment of debt, non-cash impairment loss, non-cash change in fair value of assets and liabilities, share-based compensation charges, transaction expenses, restructuring and other strategic initiative costs, loss on business disposition and other non-recurring charges. Adjusted EBITDA margin is a non-GAAP financial measure that represents Adjusted EBITDA divided by GAAP revenue. Adjusted Net Income is a non-GAAP financial measure that represents net income prior to amortization of acquisition-related intangibles, as adjusted to add back certain charges deemed to not be part of normal operating expenses, such as non-cash change in fair value of assets and liabilities, share-based compensation expense, transaction expenses, restructuring and other strategic initiative costs, other non-recurring charges, non-cash interest expense and net of tax effect associated with these adjustments. Adjusted Net Income is adjusted to exclude amortization of all acquisition-related intangibles as such amounts are inconsistent in amount and frequency and are significantly impacted by the timing and/or size of acquisitions. Management believes that the adjustment of acquisition-related intangible amortization supplements GAAP financial measures because it allows for greater comparability of operating performance. Although REPAY excludes amortization from acquisition-related intangibles from its non-GAAP expenses, management believes that it is important for investors to understand that such intangibles were recorded as part of purchase accounting and contribute to revenue generation. Adjusted Net Income per share is a non-GAAP financial measure that represents Adjusted Net Income divided by the weighted average number of shares of Class A common stock outstanding (on an as-converted basis assuming conversion of the outstanding units exchangeable for shares of Class A common stock) for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 (excluding shares subject to forfeiture). Free Cash Flow is a non-GAAP financial measure that represents net cash flow provided by operating activities less total capital expenditures. Free Cash Flow Conversion represents Free Cash Flow divided by Adjusted EBITDA. Normalized revenue growth represents year-over-year revenue growth that excludes incremental gross profit attributable to political media spending associated with the 2026 election cycle in our media payments business. REPAY believes that Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Net Income per share, Free Cash Flow, Free Cash Flow Conversion and Normalized revenue growth provide useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating its operating results in the same manner as management. However, these non-GAAP financial measures are not financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered as a substitute for net income, operating profit, net cash provided by operating activities, or any other operating performance measure calculated in accordance with GAAP. Using these non-GAAP financial measures to analyze REPAY’s business has material limitations because the calculations are based on the subjective determination of management regarding the nature and classification of events and circumstances that investors may find significant. In addition, although other companies in REPAY’s industry may report measures titled as the same or similar measures, such non-GAAP financial measures may be calculated differently from how REPAY calculates its non-GAAP financial measures, which reduces their overall usefulness as comparative measures. Because of these limitations, you should consider REPAY’s non-GAAP financial measures alongside other financial performance measures, including net income, net cash provided by operating activities and REPAY’s other financial results presented in accordance with GAAP.

Adjusted Net Income is adjusted to exclude amortization of all acquisition-related intangibles as such amounts are inconsistent in amount and frequency and are significantly impacted by the timing and/or size of acquisitions (see corresponding adjustments in the reconciliation of net income to Adjusted Net Income presented above). Management believes that the adjustment of acquisition-related intangible amortization supplements GAAP financial measures because it allows for greater comparability of operating performance. Although REPAY excludes amortization from acquisition-related intangibles from its non-GAAP expenses, management believes that it is important for investors to understand that such intangibles were recorded as part of purchase accounting and contribute to revenue generation. Amortization of intangibles that relate to past acquisitions will recur in future periods until such intangibles have been fully amortized. Any future acquisitions may result in the amortization of additional intangibles.
