With our merger with FinTech Acquisition Corp. complete, we are now focused on leveraging our new corporate structure to accelerate growth and expand the CardConnect franchise. In the second quarter, we generated a 36% increase in total bankcard volume fueled by the increased adoption of our CardPointe platform. Based on the strength of this growth and our overall first half results, we are in position to achieve our financial objectives for the year and create value for our shareholders.”
