Planet Payment Announces Second Quarter 2013 Results
Quarterly Revenue increased 16%
Second Quarter Net Income $0.3 million and Adjusted EBITDA $1.3 million
LONG BEACH, N.Y., August 14, 2013 -- Planet Payment, Inc. (NASDAQ:PLPM) (LSE:AIM:PPT), a leading provider of international payment and transaction processing and multi-currency processing services, announced today its results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2013.
Financial Highlights for the Quarter Ended June 30, 2013
-- Net revenue for the period increased approximately 16% to $11.8 million compared to $10.1 million in the second quarter of 2012.
-- Consolidated gross billings increased 11% to $30.4 million compared to $27.4 million in the second quarter of 2012. (See Table 3 for explanation of this metric).
-- Gross foreign currency mark-up increased 8% to $26.1 million compared to $24.1 million in the second quarter of 2012. (See Table 3 for explanation of this metric).
-- Processing services revenue increased 32% to $4.3 million compared to $3.3 million in the second quarter of 2012.
-- Net income for the period was $0.3 million compared to a net loss of $1.2 million in the second quarter of 2012.
-- Adjusted EBITDA for the period was $1.3 million compared to $0.1 million in the second quarter of 2012. (See Table 1 for reconciliation of net income to Adjusted EBITDA).
Operational Highlights for the Quarter Ended June 30, 2013
-- Total active merchant locations increased by 30% to approximately 44,000 (See Table 3 for explanation of this metric).
-- Total settled dollar volume processed increased 20% to $1.7 billion and total settled transactions processed increased 34% to 14.9 million. (See Table 3 for explanation of these metrics).
-- Total acquirer and processor customers increased to 60 based on roll outs in U.S.A., Myanmar and Greater China.
-- Launched Pay in Your Currency(R) at Billabong locations and additional ATMs with Vantiv and Payment Alliance International across the United States, as well as additional hospitality solutions for customers in Canada and Mexico.
"The second quarter showed increased revenue growth and profitability and we are pleased with the results" said Philip Beck, Chairman and CEO of Planet Payment, Inc. "Although we have seen some weakness in certain areas, we have seen positive trends this quarter in particular in the increase in payment processing revenue, which we believe will continue to grow in the second half of 2013 and beyond. We are focused on growing our revenue from existing products and customers. In addition, we continue to work with our customers on multi-currency processing implementations in new markets such as Indonesia, Mexico, and Brazil, and we expect to be able to report further developments in those markets as the year progresses."
Outlook for Fiscal Year 2013
We have seen weakness in our multi-currency revenues, particularly in the APAC region. This resulted from continued change in international travel trends and softness in some of our customers' portfolios in the APAC region in particular. If these trends persist for the rest of the year, this may impact the growth in our multi-currency revenues during 2013. Some of our customers, particularly in the Americas, have been slower than anticipated in completing technical implementations or roll-outs to their customer portfolios, which may also impact 2013 results. Accordingly we are adjusting our guidance for 2013 to reflect these uncertainties, as follows:
-- Net revenue estimated to be in the range of $48.0 million to $50.0 million. -- Net income estimated to be in the range of $1.0 million to $2.9 million.
-- Adjusted EBITDA estimated to be in the range of $5.4 million to $7.4 million. (See Table 2 for reconciliation of prospective net income to Adjusted EBITDA).
-- Fully diluted earnings per share estimated to be in the range of $0.02 to $0.05 based upon 56.0 million fully diluted common shares outstanding.
Based on the planned multi-currency implementations during the second half of 2013 and the expected growth in our processing services, we are anticipating revenue growth in excess of 20% for 2014. We expect this revenue growth will result in increasing profitability, as we continue to demonstrate the leverage in our model.

Non-GAAP Financial Information
The Company provides certain non-GAAP financial measures in this announcement. 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 (loss) adjusted to exclude: (1) interest expense, (2) interest income, (3) provision (benefit) for income taxes, (4) depreciation and amortization, (5) stock--based expense from options and warrants 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) Represents gross foreign currency mark-up plus payment processing services revenue.
(2) Represents total settled dollar volume processed through both our multi-currency and payment processing services.
(3) 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 June 30, 2013 and 2012, there were 21 and 13 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 double counting.
(4) Represents total settled transactions (excluding other transaction types such as authorizations, rate look-ups and non-financial transactions).
(5) Represents settled transactions processed using our multi-currency processing services (excluding other transaction types such as authorizations, rate look-ups and non-financial transactions).
(6) Represents the gross foreign currency mark-up amount on settled dollar volume processed using our multi-currency processing services. Gross foreign currency mark-up represents multi-currency processing services net revenue plus amounts paid to acquiring banks and their merchants associated with such multi-currency processing transactions. Management believes this metric is relevant because it provides the reader an indication of the gross mark-up derived from multi-currency transactions processed through our platform during a given period.
(7) Represents the total settled dollar volume processed using our multi-currency processing services.
(8) 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 the reported total multi-currency processing services net revenue ($7.4 million and $6.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively, and $15.3 million and $14.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively) and dividing by settled dollar volume processed.
(9) Represents revenue earned and reported on payment processing services.
(10) Represents settled transactions processed using our payment processing services (excluding other transaction types such as authorizations, rate look-ups and non-financial transactions).
(11) Represents the total settled dollar volume processed using our payment processing services.
