Highlights for the first quarter of 2017 include:
“Fiscal 2017 is off to a strong start. Most importantly, organic bankcard volume grew a record 22.8% in the first quarter of 2017 compared to the prior year quarter,” said CardConnect President and CEO Jeff Shanahan. “Volume growth was again primarily driven by our unique value proposition in the integrated payments market where we offer software partners a unified payments platform delivered with best in class payment security. As part of our 2017 strategy to invest for future growth, early in the second quarter, we acquired MertzCo, Inc., who was our largest value-added reseller. We are thrilled to have someone with Michael Mertz’s track record of success leading our sales. Additionally, we are executing on our organic growth plan, both in sales and technology. We are also providing updated guidance for 2017 as a result of the MertzCo transaction.”
Full-Year 2017 Financial OutlookCardConnect is re-affirming its initial 2017 financial outlook and providing an updated financial outlook that reflects the transaction with MertzCo, Inc. completed on April 3, 2017. Bankcard volume is expected to be $26.7 billion to $27.2 billion, representing an increase of 20% to 22% compared to 2016. Revenue is expected to be $686 million to $700 million, representing an increase of 16% to 19% compared to 2016. Net revenue is expected to be $182 million to $185 million, representing an increase of 16% to 18% compared to 2016.

Non-GAAP Financial MeasuresThis earnings release presents non-GAAP financial information including net revenue, adjusted EBITDA, pro forma adjusted net income, and pro forma adjusted net income per share. The company uses these non-GAAP financial performance measures for financial and operational decision making and as a means to evaluate period-to-period comparisons. The company believes that they provide useful information about operating results by excluding certain expenses that may not be indicative of its core operating results and business outlook. As such, management believes the presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures enhances the overall understanding of past financial performance and future prospects, and allows for greater transparency with respect to key metrics used by management in its financial and operational decision making.
The non-GAAP measures presented in this release are important financial performance measures for the company, but are not financial measures as defined by GAAP. The presentation of this financial information is not intended to be considered in isolation of or as a substitute for, or superior to, the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP. Non-GAAP measures have limitations in that they do not reflect all of the amounts associated with the company’s results of operations as determined in accordance with GAAP. These measures should only be used to evaluate the company’s result of operations in conjunction with the corresponding GAAP measures. Reconciliations of these non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are presented in the attached schedules to this release.

Such financial measure should not be considered as an alternative to GAAP revenue, and such measure may not be comparable to those reported by other companies. Amounts may not foot due to rounding.
Adjusted EBITDA is also an important financial performance measure for the Company, but is not a financial measure as defined by GAAP. Such financial measure should not be considered as an alternative to GAAP net income, and such measure may not be comparable to those reported by other companies. Adjusted EBITDA differs from GAAP net income in that it excludes interest expense, net, depreciation and amortization, taxes, share based compensation, gain/loss on asset disposal, non-operating expenses and transition, acquisition and integration costs. The Company has not reconciled its Adjusted EBITDA guidance to net income, its GAAP equivalent, because net income is not accessible on a forward-looking basis due to, among other things, uncertainty regarding the tax impact of the July 29, 2016 merger, including with respect to the tax valuation allowances, and because of the uncertainty regarding, and the potential variability of making, forecasts with respect to reconciling items such as share-based compensation expense and transition, acquisition and integration costs. Accordingly, a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA guidance to GAAP net income is not available without unreasonable effort. It is important to note that the actual amount of net income and such reconciling items will have a significant impact on the Company’s Adjusted EBITDA.
