CPI Card Group Inc. Reports First Quarter 2023 Results

Net Sales Increased 8% to $121 Million; Net Income Increased 81% to $11 Million; Adjusted EBITDA Increased 11% to $25 Million

Strong Sales of Contactless Cards Drive First Quarter Growth

Company Affirms 2023 Outlook of Mid-Single Digit Net Sales Growth and Mid-to-High Single Digit Adjusted EBITDA Growth

Company Announces Appointment of Jeffrey A. Hochstadt as Chief Financial Officer

CPI Card Group Inc. (Nasdaq: PMTS) (“CPI” or the “Company”), a payment technology company and leading provider of credit, debit, and prepaid solutions, today reported financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2023 and affirmed its financial outlook for 2023.

First quarter net sales increased 8% to $120.9 million, led by strong sales of contactless cards. Net income increased 81% to $10.9 million and Adjusted EBITDA increased 11% to $25.1 million, driven by sales growth and operating leverage.

The Company affirmed its full-year outlook for 2023, which projects mid-single digit net sales growth, mid-to-high single digit Adjusted EBITDA growth, Free Cash Flow to more than double and year-end Net Leverage Ratio improvement to between 2.5x and 3.0x. The Company does not expect second quarter results to be as strong as the first quarter due to softening demand in the Debit and Credit segment, which it believes is related to the recent turmoil in the banking industry. Given increased banking industry and economic uncertainty, the Company has implemented new initiatives to help mitigate potential ongoing impacts.

“We are pleased with the first quarter performance, as we delivered growth across our Debit and Credit portfolio of end-to-end solutions,” said Scott Scheirman, President and Chief Executive Officer. “We are confident in the long-term growth of our market and believe our ongoing focus on providing innovative products, end-to-end solutions, and market-leading quality and customer service will continue to position us to gain share.”

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 11% for the three-year period ending December 31, 2023.

CPI is a top payment solutions provider in the U.S. serving thousands of banks, credit unions and fintechs. 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, and maintains longstanding customer relationships.

2023 Business Highlights

  • Generated net sales growth from customer demand for higher-priced contactless cards, as the U.S. payment card market continues its gradual transition to contactless solutions.
  • Continued to be a leading provider of eco-focused payment card solutions in the U.S. market. The Company has sold more than 95 million eco-focused cards since launch in late 2019.
  • Continued to be a leading provider of Software-as-a-Service-based instant issuance solutions in the U.S., with more than 14,000 Card@Once® installations across more than 2,000 financial institutions.
  • Reduced the outstanding balance on the Company’s 8.625% Senior Secured Notes by $8 million in the first quarter through open market repurchases. The Company’s Net Leverage Ratio was 2.9x at March 31, 2023.

First Quarter 2023 Financial Highlights

Net sales increased 8% year-over-year to $120.9 million in the first quarter of 2023.

  • Debit and Credit segment net sales increased 11% to $102.0 million. Growth was led by strong sales of higher-priced contactless cards and also benefited from increases in personalization services and Card@Once® instant issuance solutions.
  • Prepaid Debit segment net sales decreased 2% to $19.1 million.

First quarter gross profit increased 10% to $43.1 million and gross profit margin was 35.7%, which compared to 35.3% in the prior year first quarter. The year-over-year increase in gross profit margin was primarily due to operating leverage from higher net sales, including benefits from price increases, partially offset by inflationary impacts on materials costs and conversion expenses associated with a production staffing model change in the Prepaid business.

First quarter income from operations increased 15% to $20.6 million; net income increased 81% to $10.9 million, or $0.91 diluted earnings per share; and Adjusted EBITDA increased 11% to $25.1 million. Profitability growth was driven by higher net sales and the resulting operating leverage, while net income growth also benefited from a lower effective tax rate and lower interest expense.

Balance Sheet, Liquidity, and Cash Flow

The Company generated $8.0 million of cash flow from operating activities and $3.9 million of Free Cash Flow in the first quarter of 2023, which compared to a usage of cash flow from operating activities of $16.0 million and a Free Cash Flow usage of $19.1 million in the prior year first quarter. The strong improvement in cash generation compared to the prior year quarter was driven by increases in net income and substantial working capital improvement.

As of March 31, 2023, cash and cash equivalents was $14.2 million. There were $277 million of 8.625% Senior Secured Notes due 2026 and $13 million of borrowings from the ABL revolving credit facility outstanding at quarter-end. The Company retired $8 million of notes during the quarter, utilizing cash balances and revolving credit facility proceeds.

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 potentially return funds to stockholders.

“The first quarter results demonstrate continued progress for CPI, including strong cash flow improvement from our focus on working capital management,” said Amintore Schenkel, Chief Financial Officer of CPI. “We plan to manage expenses tightly and further strengthen our financial position over the course of the year, and continue to expect to more than double Free Cash Flow in 2023.”

CFO Appointment

The Company announced today that Jeffrey A. Hochstadt has been appointed Chief Financial Officer, effective May 15. Hochstadt has most recently served as Founder of Jazmin LLC, providing strategic and financial consulting services to public and private companies, and as a Senior Advisor to Simon-Kucher and Partners. From 2006 through 2021 he served in various roles at Western Union, including Chief Strategy Officer and Senior Vice President, Head of Global Financial Planning and Analysis. Hochstadt’s prior experience also includes stints with First Data, Morgan Stanley Capital International, IBM, A.G. Edwards and Sons, and Price Waterhouse. He holds a Masters of Business Administration from the Wharton School at the University of Pennsylvania and a Bachelor of Science in Business Administration from the John M. Olin School of Business at Washington University in St. Louis.

Hochstadt will replace Amintore Schenkel, who previously announced his intention to leave the role in 2023 due to family-related personal reasons. Schenkel will remain with the Company through the end of the second quarter, and will continue as an advisor for an additional period.

“We are excited to have Jeff join the CPI team,” said Scott Scheirman, President and Chief Executive Officer of CPI. “Jeff is a proven strategic leader who brings a vast background of diverse business and financial experience.”

Scheirman added, “I would also like to again thank Amintore for his numerous contributions to improving our profitability and financial position, as well as his leadership in navigating the Company to successful SOX compliance and developing a strong finance organization.”

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; 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 2023

We have provided Adjusted EBITDA expectations for 2023 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.
