·

Diluted net income per share for the quarter was $0.36, compared to $0.11 for 2015.  Included in diluted net income per share for Q4 2016 and Q4 2015 is a benefit to our income tax provision of $0.30 per share and $0.08 per share, respectively, due in large part to the reversal of a portion of our deferred tax asset valuation allowance.  Excluding this effect diluted net income per share for Q4 2016 and Q4 2015 would have been $ 0.06 and $0.03, respectively.

·

Adjusted EBITDA for the quarter increased 22%  to  $4.8 million, compared to $3.9 million for 2015.

·

Diluted net income per share for the year was $0.44, compared to $0.17 for 2015.  Included in diluted net income per share for 2016 and 2015 is a benefit to our income tax provision of $0.29 per share and $0.08 per share, respectively, due in large part to the reversal of a portion of our deferred tax asset valuation allowance.  Excluding this effect diluted net income per share for 2016 and 2015 would have been $0.15 and $0.09, respectively.

Non-GAAP Financial Information

 

The Company provides certain non-GAAP financial measures in this statement.  Management believes that Adjusted EBITDA, when viewed with our results under GAAP and the accompanying reconciliations, provides useful information about our period-over-period results. Adjusted EBITDA is presented because management believes it provides additional information with respect to the performance of our fundamental business activities and is also frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of comparable companies. We also rely on Adjusted EBITDA as a primary measure to review and assess the operating performance of our company and our management team in connection with our executive compensation.  These non-GAAP key business indicators, which include Adjusted EBITDA, should not be considered replacements for and should be read in conjunction with the GAAP financial measures. 

 

We define Adjusted EBITDA as GAAP net income adjusted to exclude: (1) interest expense, (2) interest income, (3) provision for income taxes, (4) depreciation and amortization, (5) stock-based compensation expense and (6) certain other items management believes affect the comparability of operating results. Please see “Adjusted EBITDA” below for more information and for a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to net income, the most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP.

(1)

We consider a merchant location to be active as of a date if the merchant completed at least one revenue-generating transaction at the location during the 90-day period ending on such date.  The total number of active merchant locations exceeds the total number of merchants, as merchants may have multiple locations. As of December 31, 2016 and 2015, there were 1,491 and 1,726 active merchant locations, respectively, included in both multi-currency and payment processing active merchant locations but are not included in total active merchant locations, in order to eliminate counting these locations twice.

(2)

Represents total settled transactions (excluding other transaction types such as authorizations and rate look-ups).

(3)

Represents total settled dollar volume processed through both our multi-currency and payment processing services.  

(4)

We define Adjusted EBITDA as GAAP net income adjusted to exclude (1) interest expense, (2) interest income, (3) (benefit) provision for income taxes, (4) depreciation and amortization, (5) stock-based compensation expense and (6) certain other items management believes affect the comparability of operating results. Please see “—Adjusted EBITDA” in the 10-K filing for more information and for a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to net income, the most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP.

(5)

Represents settled transactions processed using our multi-currency processing services (excluding other transaction types such as authorizations and rate look-ups).   

(6)

Represents the total settled dollar volume processed using our multi-currency processing services

(7)

Represents the average net foreign currency mark-up percentage earned on settled dollar volume processed using our multi-currency processing services. The average net mark-up percentage on settled dollar volume processed is calculated by taking total multi-currency processing services net revenue ($34.0 million and $32.8 million for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively) and dividing by settled dollar volume processed (see footnote 6 above).  For purposes of calculating “Average net mark-up percentage on settled dollar volume processed,” multi-currency processing services revenue includes revenue related to multi-currency transactions only.

(8)

Represents revenue earned and reported on payment processing services. 

(9)

Represents settled transactions processed using our payment processing services (excluding other transaction types such as authorizations and rate look-ups)

(10)

Represents the total settled dollar volume processed using our payment processing services.
