CPI Card Group Inc. Reports First Quarter 2024 Results

Net Sales Decreased 7% to $112 Million; Net Income Decreased 50% to $5 Million; Adjusted EBITDA Decreased 8% to $23 Million

Net Sales, Net Income, and Adjusted EBITDA Increased from Fourth Quarter Levels

Company Continues to Anticipate Gradual Market Recovery in 2024; Affirms Full Year Net Sales and Adjusted EBITDA Outlook

CPI Card Group Inc. (Nasdaq: PMTS) (“CPI” or the “Company”), a payments technology company and leading provider of credit, debit, and prepaid card and digital solutions, including Software-as-a-Service-based instant issuance, today reported financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2024 and updated its financial outlook for 2024.

As anticipated, first quarter Debit and Credit segment sales were impacted by cautious customer spending as customers continued their focus on managing inventory levels, while Prepaid segment sales posted strong growth. Compared to the prior year first quarter, net sales decreased 7% to $111.9 million; net income decreased 50% to $5.5 million, primarily due to CEO transition-related expenses; and Adjusted EBITDA decreased 8% to $23.0 million.

Net sales, net income, and Adjusted EBITDA each increased from fourth quarter 2023 levels. As previously noted, the Company anticipates sales declines in the first half of 2024 to be offset by growth in the second half of the year from share gains and improved market demand.

“We are pleased with the overall improvement in results compared to recent trends,” said John Lowe, President and Chief Executive Officer. “We were able to deliver strong growth in our Prepaid and personalization services businesses in the quarter, which partially offset the anticipated declines in card volumes.”

Lowe added, “Card issuance remains healthy and we continue to expect a market recovery in the second half of the year. Strategically, our teams remain focused on gaining market share by providing innovative solutions and leading customer service and quality, as well as expanding into adjacent markets, including digital solutions, for our base of thousands of customers.”

In the first quarter, the Company signed a multi-year contract with one of its larger customers, gaining share which will generate incremental sales over the next several years. The Company adjusted its Free Cash Flow outlook for 2024 to reflect up-front incentives related to this contract.

CPI is a top payment solutions provider in the U.S. serving thousands of banks, credit unions and fintechs, as well as major bank platforms and prepaid program managers. 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.

The Company believes long-term growth trends for the U.S. card market remain strong, led by consumer card growth, widespread adoption of eco-focused cards and the ongoing conversion to contactless cards. Based on figures released by the networks, Visa and Mastercard® U.S. debit and credit cards in circulation increased at a compound annual growth rate of 9% for the three-year period ending December 31, 2023.

2024 Business Highlights

  • CPI continues to be a leading provider of eco-focused payment card solutions in the U.S. market, with more than 100 million eco-focused cards sold since launch in late 2019.
  • CPI continues to be a leading provider of Software-as-a-Service-based instant issuance solutions in the U.S., with more than 15,000 Card@Once® installations across more than 2,000 financial institutions.
  • The Company executed share repurchases against the $20 million authorization announced in November. Through March 2024, the Company had repurchased in the open market or had committed to repurchase through its stock purchase agreement with its majority stockholder approximately $6 million of shares since initiation of the authorization.
  • The Company ended the first quarter with a Net Leverage Ratio of 3.1x.

First Quarter 2024 Financial Highlights

Net sales decreased 7% year-over-year to $111.9 million in the first quarter of 2024

  • Debit and Credit segment net sales decreased 14% to $88.0 million, primarily due to declines in card volumes, partially offset by increases in Card@Once® instant issuance solutions and other card personalization services.
  • Prepaid Debit segment net sales increased 26% to $24.2 million, reflecting strong customer demand and timing among quarters.

First quarter gross profit decreased 4% to $41.5 million and gross profit margin was 37.1%, which compared to 35.7% in the prior year first quarter.

First quarter income from operations decreased 31% to $14.1 million; net income decreased 50% to $5.5 million, or $0.46 diluted earnings per share; and Adjusted EBITDA decreased 8% to $23.0 million. Income from operations and net income declines include the impact of approximately $2 million of pre-tax operating expenses related to an executive retention package announced in 2023 and other CEO transition-related expenses, including stock compensation, which are not included in Adjusted EBITDA. The net income decrease was also impacted by a higher effective tax rate compared to prior year.

Balance Sheet, Liquidity and Cash Flow

The Company generated cash from operating activities of $8.9 million in the first quarter of 2024, which compared to $8.0 million in the 2023 first quarter, and Free Cash Flow of $7.4 million, which compared to $3.9 million in the prior year. The increase in cash generation compared to the prior year was driven by working capital improvements and lower capital expenditures, partially offset by lower net income.

As of March 31, 2024, cash and cash equivalents was $17.1 million. There were $268 million of 8.625% Senior Secured Notes due 2026 and no borrowings from the ABL revolving credit facility outstanding at quarter-end.

The Company spent $1.25 million to repurchase 68,258 shares of common stock in the open market during the first quarter. In April, the Company spent an additional $4.4 million to purchase 244,314 shares from its majority shareholder pursuant to the Stock Purchase Agreement announced in December, which committed the Company to purchase shares from its majority shareholder at a 3 to 1 ratio to the number of shares repurchased in the open market over the December through March period.

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 were pleased to deliver gross margin improvement and solid cash flow generation in the first quarter,” said Jeff Hochstadt, Chief Financial Officer of CPI. “We also made significant progress executing our share repurchase program, consistent with our capital allocation priorities.”

Outlook for 2024

The Company affirmed its net sales and Adjusted EBITDA financial outlook for 2024, which was previously provided in March. The Company continues to expect slight increases in both net sales and Adjusted EBITDA for the full year, with declines in the first half of the year offset by growth in the second half.

The Company has adjusted its Free Cash Flow outlook to be approximately half of the 2023 level, which compares to the previous outlook of $5 million to $10 million below prior year. The change compared to the prior outlook primarily reflects the near-term impact of the newly signed contract with one of the Company’s larger customers, which should benefit cash flow through 2029, but negatively impact Free Cash Flow in 2024 due to up-front incentives. Compared to prior year, the Free Cash Flow outlook also reflects increased capital spending investment, including investment in a new state-of-the-art secure card production facility in Indiana. The Company generated $27.6 million of Free Cash Flow in 2023.

The Company continues to expect its year-end 2024 Net Leverage Ratio to be between 3.0x and 3.5x.

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, including executive retention and severance; costs related to production facility modernization efforts; loss on debt extinguishment; foreign currency gain or loss; 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 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. 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 2024

We have provided Adjusted EBITDA expectations for 2024 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.
