SAN JUAN, PUERTO RICO MARCH 14, 2013 EVERTEC Group, LLC (EVERTEC or the Company) today reported consolidated results for the fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2012.
We are pleased to report another strong quarter and year of double-digit Adjusted EBITDA growth and revenue increases across our business lines, said Peter Harrington, EVERTECs President and Chief Executive Officer. Our continued strong financial performance is a testament to the value of our diversified business model, which has enabled us to provide our customers with differentiated, value-add capabilities and successfully penetrate new markets and geographies. In addition to our commercial accomplishments during 2012, we also took a number of important steps in our corporate development including obtaining a 15-year tax grant from the Government of Puerto Rico. This grant has structurally enhanced our advantaged free cash flow profile and further positions us to compound our momentum in the Latin American payments market.
Fourth Quarter 2012 Financial Results
Total revenues for the quarter ended December 31, 2012 were $91.0 million, representing an increase of $5.4 million, or 6% as compared to the corresponding 2011 period. The aforementioned consolidated growth reflects an increase in Merchant Acquiring revenues of $0.1 million, Payment Processing revenues of $2.4 million or 11%, and Business Solutions revenues of $2.9 million or 6%. The increase in Payment Processing and Business Solutions segment revenues was primarily due to an increase in volume and higher demand for our services.
Total operating costs and expenses, excluding depreciation and amortization, for the quarter ended December 31, 2012 were $47.3 million, representing a decrease of $0.6 million or 1% as compared to the corresponding 2011 period. The decrease was primarily due to a reduction in personnel related costs.
Total non-operating expenses for the quarter ended December 31, 2012 remained flat when compared to the 2011 period.
Income tax benefit for the quarter ended December 31, 2012 amounted to $0.8 million as compared to an income tax expense of $1.6 million for the corresponding 2011 period. The income tax benefit for the 2012 period was primarily related to the impact of the tax grant received by EVERTEC during the fourth quarter of 2012.
Adjusted EBITDA for the quarter ended December 31, 2012 was $51.8 million, an increase of $11.5 million or 29% as compared to $40.2 million for the same period in 2011. The increase in Adjusted EBITDA was primarily driven by the
aforementioned growth in revenues and significant operating leverage in our leading technology platform. Adjusted EBITDA margin (Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of total revenues) improved to 56.9% from 47.0% in the corresponding 2011 period.
Year Ended December 31, 2012 Financial Results
Total revenues for the year ended December 31, 2012 were $341.7 million, representing an increase of $20.6 million or 6% as compared to the corresponding 2011 period. Merchant Acquiring revenues for the year ended December 31, 2012 were $69.6 million, representing an increase of $7.6 million or 12% as compared to the corresponding 2011 period. The increase in Merchant Acquiring revenues during 2012 was primarily attributable to volume growth in our core business of $5.0 million. Payment Processing revenues for the year ended December 31, 2012 were $94.8 million, representing an increase of $9.1 million or 11% as compared to the corresponding 2011 period. The increase in Payment Processing revenues during 2012 was primarily attributable to an increase in volume. Business Solutions revenues for the year ended December 31, 2012 were $177.3 million, representing an increase of $3.9 million or 2% as compared to the corresponding 2011 period. The increase in Business Solutions revenues during 2012 was primarily due to higher demand for our services.
Total operating costs and expenses excluding depreciation and amortization, for the year ended December 31, 2012 were $190.2 million, representing an increase of $1.5 million or 1% as compared to the corresponding 2011 period. The increase was primarily attributable to the increase in revenues as described above, partially offset by a reduction in personnel costs.
Total non-operating expenses for the year ended December 31, 2012 were $61.9 million, representing a decrease of $5.6 million or 8% as compared to the 2011 period. The decrease in non-operating expenses in 2012 was primarily driven by lower other expenses of $9.7 million, partially offset by an increase in interest expense of $3.4 million from the issuance of additional debt in May 2012.
Income tax benefit for the year ended December 31, 2012 was $87.7 million as compared to $33.1 million for the corresponding 2011 period. The income tax benefit in 2012 was primarily attributable to a $90.9 million income tax benefit from the elimination of EVERTECs deferred tax liability following the Conversion and the effect of the tax grant received during the fourth quarter of 2012. The income tax benefit in 2011 was primarily attributable to a $27.6 reduction in the Companys deferred tax liability following the enactment of certain tax reforms in Puerto Rico on January 31, 2011 which reduced in the marginal corporate income tax rate from 39% to 30%.
Adjusted EBITDA for the year ended December 31, 2012 was $169.6 million, an increase of $20.5 million or 14% as compared to the same period in 2011. This increase was primarily driven by revenue growth across all three business segments and lower incremental costs. Adjusted EBITDA margin (Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of total revenues) improved to 49.6% from 46.4% in the corresponding 2011 period.
Cash and Liquidity
As of December 31, 2012, EVERTECs unrestricted cash balance was $25.0 million. Also, as of December 31, 2012 EVERTEC had $35.3 million of net borrowing capacity available under its revolving credit facility after giving effect to $14.0 million of short-term borrowings and a $0.7 million letter of credit on behalf of EVERTEC Costa Rica, S.A.
Debt
As of December 31, 2012, the Companys unpaid principal balance was $759.5 million.

Net Income Reconciliation to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA
We define EBITDA as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization. We define Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA as further adjusted to exclude unusual items and other adjustments described below. We present EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA because we consider them important supplemental measures of our performance and believe they are frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of companies in our industry. In addition, our presentation of Adjusted EBITDA is consistent with the equivalent measurements that are contained in our senior secured credit facilities and the indenture governing the notes in testing our compliance with covenants therein such as the senior secured leverage ratio and the fixed charge coverage ratio. In addition, in evaluating EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, you should be aware that in the future we may incur expenses such as those excluded in calculating them. Further, our presentation of these measures should not be construed as an inference that our future operating results will not be affected by unusual or nonrecurring items.
Some of the limitations of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are as follows:
| they do not reflect cash outlays for capital expenditures or future contractual commitments; |
| they do not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, working capital; |
| although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized will often have to be replaced in the future, and EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect cash requirements for such replacements; |
| they do not reflect interest expense, or the cash requirements necessary to service interest, or principal payments, on indebtedness; |
| they do not reflect income tax expense or the cash necessary to pay income taxes; and |
| other companies, including other companies in our industry, may not use EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA or may calculate EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA differently than as presented in this press release, limiting their usefulness as a comparative measure. |
EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not measurements of liquidity or financial performance under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP). You should not consider EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA as alternatives to cash flows from operating activities or any other performance measures determined in accordance with GAAP, as an indicator of cash flows, as a measure of liquidity or as an alternative to operating or net income determined in accordance with GAAP.
