Cardtronics Announces First Quarter 2018 Results

ATM operating revenues down 6% for the quarter 
ATM operating revenues up 9% for the quarter excluding the impact of 7-Eleven 
Increases Outlook for 2018

HOUSTON, May 03, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Cardtronics plc (Nasdaq:CATM) (“Cardtronics” or the “Company”), the world’s largest ATM owner/operator, announced today its financial and operational results for the quarter ended March 31, 2018.

First Quarter 2018 Financial Highlights:

  • Total revenues of $336.2 million, down 6% from $357.6 million in the prior year and up 9% after excluding the impact from the removal of ATMs at 7-Eleven locations in the U.S.
  • ATM operating revenues of $319.7 million, down 6% from $341.8 million in the prior year and up 9% after excluding the impact from the removal of ATMs at 7-Eleven locations in the U.S.
  • GAAP Net Loss of $(2.8) million, or $(0.06) per diluted share, compared to $(0.9) million, or $(0.02) per diluted share in the prior year.
  • Adjusted gross margin of 32.1%, up 110 basis points compared to the prior year.
  • Adjusted EBITDA of $68.7 million, down 4% from $71.2 million in the prior year, impacted by the removal of ATMs at 7-Eleven locations in the U.S.
  • Adjusted Net Income per diluted share of $0.46 compared to $0.55 in the prior year, impacted by the removal of ATMs at 7-Eleven locations in the U.S. and higher interest expense associated with permanent financing related to the DCPayments acquisition.

“We had a great start to 2018, with a first quarter that demonstrated the strength and durability of our business and strong operational execution resulting in margin expansion over the prior year. As we moved past the 7-Eleven deconversion, we delivered solid organic revenue growth in North America, driven by improved transaction levels. In addition to delivering value for our premier retailers, we continue to focus on becoming an increasingly important strategic partner to financial institutions, and our efforts are gaining momentum. We’re excited about the year ahead and our ability to execute on our strategic priorities,” commented Edward H. West, Cardtronics’ chief executive officer.

Note Regarding First Quarter 2018 Results Compared to Prior Year:
The Company had a long-standing relationship with 7-Eleven in the U.S. that ended during the quarter ended March 31, 2018. In previous periods, this relationship accounted for a material portion of the Company’s consolidated revenues and profits. The Company began a transition to 7-Eleven’s new service provider during the third quarter of 2017 and that transition was completed in February 2018. The Company estimates that 7-Eleven accounted for approximately 15% of the Company’s total revenues during the first quarter of 2017 and had an incremental adjusted gross margin of approximately 40%. During the first quarter of 2018, 7-Eleven in the U.S. accounted for less than 2% of the Company’s total revenues. 7-Eleven in the U.S. accounted for approximately 12.5% of the Company’s consolidated revenues for the year ended 2017 and the Company expects that 7-Eleven in the U.S. will account for less than 1% of consolidated revenues in 2018.

See Disclosure of Non-GAAP Financial Information in this earnings release for definitions of Adjusted Gross Profit, Adjusted Gross Margin, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Net Income per diluted share, Adjusted Free Cash Flow, and certain other non-GAAP measures on a constant-currency basis. For additional information, including reconciliations to the most directly comparable financial measure recognized under generally accepted accounting principles in the U.S. (“U.S. GAAP” or “GAAP”), see the supplemental schedules of selected financial information in this earnings release.

The Company may also refer to revenue or profit growth as being organic. When providing growth measures on an organic basis, the Company attempts to exclude the estimated impact from any acquired or divested businesses that may be included or partially included in one period but not another. The Company may further adjust organic performance measures for the impacts of currency movements, in order to have a consistent performance comparison across periods for the business, excluding movements in exchange rates. Due to the significance of the Company’s 7-Eleven relationship in the U.S., which accounted for 12.5% of consolidated revenues in 2017 and is expected to account for less than 1% of consolidated revenues in 2018, the Company may also report certain performance measures excluding the estimated contribution of this relationship to enable more comparable analysis of the business across periods excluding this relationship.

2018 OUTLOOK

Below is the Company’s financial outlook for the full year 2018:

  • Revenues of $1.26 billion to $1.30 billion;
  • GAAP Net Income of $1.0 million to $6.0 million;
  • Adjusted EBITDA of $255 million to $265 million;
  • Depreciation and accretion expense of $126 million to $128 million;
  • Cash interest expense of $36 million;
  • Adjusted Net Income of $67 million to $77 million;
  • Adjusted Net Income per diluted share of $1.45 to $1.65, based on approximately 46.5 million weighted average diluted shares outstanding; and
  • Capital expenditures of $110 million.

The Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Net Income outlook excludes the impact of certain expenses, as outlined in the reconciliation provided at the end of this earnings release. See Disclosure of Non-GAAP Financial Information in this earnings release for definitions of these Non-GAAP measures. This outlook is based on average foreign currency exchange rates for the year of £1.00 U.K. to $1.35 U.S., $20.00 Mexican pesos to $1.00 U.S., $1.00 Canadian dollar to $0.80 U.S., €1.00 Euros to $1.24 U.S., $1.00 Australian dollar to $0.80 U.S., and R13 South African Rand to $1.00 U.S.

The Company’s forward-looking statements involve significant risks and uncertainties (some of which are beyond its control) and assumptions that could cause actual results to differ materially from its historical experience and present expectations or projections. Risk factors are described in the Company’s 2017 Form 10-K, and those set forth from time-to-time in other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements contained in this earnings release, which speak only as of the date of this earnings release.

DISCLOSURE OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL INFORMATION

Adjusted Gross Profit, Adjusted Gross Margin, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Net Income per diluted share, Adjusted Free Cash Flow, and certain GAAP as well as non-GAAP measures on a constant-currency basis represent non-GAAP financial measures provided as a complement to financial results prepared in accordance with GAAP and may not be comparable to similarly-titled measures reported by other companies. The Company uses these non-GAAP financial measures in managing and measuring the performance of its business, including setting and measuring incentive based compensation for management. Management believes that the presentation of these measures and the identification of notable, non-cash, and/or (if applicable in a particular period) certain costs not anticipated to occur in future periods enhance an investor’s understanding of the underlying trends in the Company’s business and provide for better comparability between periods in different years.

Adjusted Gross Profit represents total revenues less the total cost of revenues, excluding depreciation, accretion, and amortization of intangible assets. Adjusted Gross Margin is calculated by dividing Adjusted Gross Profit by total revenues. Adjusted EBITDA excludes depreciation, accretion, and amortization of intangible assets as these amounts can vary substantially from company to company within the Company’s industry depending upon accounting methods and book values of assets, capital structures, and the methods by which the assets were acquired. Adjusted EBITDA also excludes share-based compensation expense, acquisition and divestiture-related expenses, certain non-operating expenses, (if applicable in a particular period) certain costs not anticipated to occur in future periods, gains or losses on disposal and impairment of assets, the Company’s obligations for the payment of income taxes, interest expense, and other obligations such as capital expenditures, and includes an adjustment for noncontrolling interests. Adjusted Net Income represents net income computed in accordance with GAAP, before amortization of intangible assets, gains or losses on disposal and impairment of assets, share-based compensation expense, certain other expense amounts, acquisition and divestiture-related expenses, certain non-operating expenses, and (if applicable in a particular period) certain costs not anticipated to occur in future periods (together, the “Adjustments”). For the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, the non-GAAP tax rate used to calculate Adjusted Net Income was approximately 25.8% and 28.2%, respectively, representing the GAAP tax rate for the period as adjusted by the estimated tax impact of the items adjusted from the measure. Adjusted Net Income per diluted share is calculated by dividing Adjusted Net Income by weighted average diluted shares outstanding. Adjusted Free Cash Flow is defined as cash provided by operating activities less the impact of changes in restricted cash due to the timing of settlements and less payments for capital expenditures, including those financed through direct debt, but excluding acquisitions. The Adjusted Free Cash Flow measure does not take into consideration certain other non-discretionary cash requirements such as mandatory principal payments on portions of the Company’s long-term debt. Management calculates certain GAAP as well as non-GAAP measures on a constant-currency basis using the average foreign currency exchange rates applicable in the corresponding period of the previous year and applying these rates to the measures in the current reporting period. Management uses GAAP as well as non-GAAP measures on a constant-currency basis to assess performance and eliminate the effect foreign currency exchange rates have on comparability between periods.

The non-GAAP financial measures presented herein should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for operating income, net income, cash flows from operating, investing, or financing activities, or other income or cash flow measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. Reconciliations of the non-GAAP financial measures used herein to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are presented in tabular form at the end of this earnings release.

(2) Adjusted Net Income per diluted share is calculated by dividing Adjusted Net Income by the weighted average diluted shares outstanding of 46,332,629 and 46,226,190 for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Consistent with the positive Adjusted Net Income, the Adjusted Net Income per diluted share amounts have been calculated using the diluted shares outstanding that would have resulted from positive GAAP Net Income.
