Intermex Reports Second-Quarter Results

MIAMI, Aug. 02, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- International Money Express, Inc. (NASDAQ: IMXI) (“Intermex” or the “Company”), one of the nation’s leading omnichannel money transfer services, today reported continued solid growth during the second quarter of 2023.

Financial performance highlights for the second quarter of 2023 compared with the same period last year are:

  • Revenues of $169.2 million, up 23.5%.
  • Net Income of $15.4 million, down 3.5%.
  • Diluted EPS of $0.42 per share, up 2.4%.
  • Adjusted Net Income of $18.4 million, up 0.6%.
  • Adjusted Diluted EPS of $0.50, up 6.4%.
  • Adjusted EBITDA of $30.9 million, up 11.7%.

“Intermex delivered another quarter of solid revenue and adjusted EBITDA growth, reflecting the strength and resilience of our core business,” said Bob Lisy, Chairman, President, and CEO of Intermex. “In addition to executing within the core business, we are successfully integrating La Nacional, enhancing the long-term profitability of the acquisition’s U.S. operations and positioning to scale up in Europe with i-Transfer.” Lisy added, “Our efficient omnichannel operating model and strong cash generation put us in a great position to grow within our core, scale our emerging products like card and digital, and have the balance sheet flexibility to grow through M&A.”

Second Quarter 2023 Financial Results (all comparisons are to the Second Quarter 2022)
Total revenues for the Company were $169.2 million, up 23.5%. Contributing to the revenue growth is solid core growth in the underlying business and the inclusion of La Nacional in the U.S. and i-Transfer in Europe. This helped drive a 41.1% increase in unique, active customers to 4.2 million, who generated 15.1 million money transfer transactions, an increase of 26.7%. Also contributing to the record number of transactions was the 62.9% growth in digital transactions. Transaction growth resulted in $6.4 billion in principal transferred, a 19.5% increase. This principal translates to a 21.7% market share, up from 20.4% in the top 5 U.S. to Latin America remittance markets - Mexico, Guatemala, El Salvador, Honduras, and the Dominican Republic through May 2023.

Net income was $15.4 million, a decrease of 3.5%. Diluted earnings per share were $0.42, an increase of 2.4%. Net income and the growth in diluted EPS reflect the increased revenues, offset primarily by higher interest and depreciation expense, amortization of intangibles from recent acquisitions, and a higher effective tax rate. The diluted earnings per share reflect the positive benefits of our stock repurchases.

Adjusted net income increased 0.6% to $18.4 million, and adjusted diluted earnings per share were $0.50, an increase of 6.4%, reflecting the items noted above in net income, adjusted for certain non-cash expenses, other charges, and tax adjustments that are detailed in the reconciliation tables below following the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, coupled with the positive benefits from the stock repurchases.

Adjusted EBITDA increased 11.7% to $30.9 million, driven by the business operating results discussed above along with the impact from the additional adjusting items to EBITDA shown in the reconciliation table below.

Year-to-Date Financial Results for 2023 (all comparisons are to the first six months of 2022)
Revenues increased by 25.0% to $314.5 million. Driving that growth was a 27.6% increase in net money transfer transactions. A 65.0% increase in digital transactions initiated also contributed to this growth. Principal amount sent increased 20.8% to $11.7 billion.

Net income was $27.2 million, a decrease of 1.6%. Diluted earnings per share were $0.73, an increase of 2.8%, attributable to the year-to-date effects of the same items noted above for the quarterly results.

Adjusted net income totaled $32.6 million, an increase of 3.0%. Adjusted diluted earnings per share totaled $0.88, an increase of 8.6%, attributable to the same items noted above for the quarterly results.

Adjusted EBITDA increased 13.7% to $55.0 million, attributable to the same items noted above for the quarterly results and the greater net effect of the adjusting items detailed in the reconciliation table below.

Adjusted and other non-GAAP measures discussed above and elsewhere in this press release are defined below under the heading, Non-GAAP Measures.

Other Items
The Company ended the second quarter of 2023 with $147.4 million in cash and cash equivalents, an increase of 72.4% compared to March 31, 2023. The cash and cash equivalents balance were impacted by a $116 million draw on the revolving credit facility to primarily pre-fund our payer network for expected weekend transaction volume. As a result of drawing on the credit facility, the total debt increased from $99.2 million to $193.3 million.

Net Free Cash Generated was $13.0 million, down 25.2%, compared to the second quarter of 2022. Net free cash generated was reduced by $5.5 million in the quarter attributable to the close of the LAN Holdings acquisition which includes i-Transfer in April.

The Company repurchased approximately 416,000 shares of its common stock for $10.0 million during the second quarter of 2023 under its share repurchase program. The Company also repurchased 500,000 shares for $12.6 million through a privately-negotiated transaction.

2023 Guidance
The Company is reducing its previously issued full-year guidance and providing third-quarter guidance:

Full-year 2023:

  • Revenue of $644.9 million to $673.0 million.
  • Diluted EPS of $1.56 to $1.63.
  • Adjusted Diluted EPS of $1.87 to $1.94.
  • Adjusted EBITDA of $114.8 million to $119.8 million.

Third-quarter 2023:

  • Revenue of $165.7 million to $176.8 million.
  • Diluted EPS of $0.40 to $0.43.
  • Adjusted Diluted EPS of $0.49 to $0.52.
  • Adjusted EBITDA of $30.0 million to $32.0 million.

Non-GAAP Measures
Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Earnings per Share, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin and Net Free Cash Generated, each a Non-GAAP financial measure, are the primary metrics used by management to evaluate the financial performance of our business. We present these Non-GAAP financial measures because we believe they are frequently used by analysts, investors, and other interested parties to evaluate companies in our industry. Further, we believe they help highlight trends in our operating results, because certain of such measures exclude, among other things, the effects of certain transactions that are outside the control of management, while other measures can differ significantly depending on long-term strategic decisions regarding capital structure, the jurisdictions in which we operate and capital investments.

Adjusted Net Income is defined as Net Income adjusted to add back certain charges and expenses, such as non-cash amortization of intangible assets resulting from business acquisition transactions, non-cash compensation costs, and other items outlined in the reconciliation tables below, as these charges and expenses are not considered a part of our core business operations and are not an indicator of ongoing future Company performance.

Adjusted Earnings per Share – Basic and Diluted is calculated by dividing Adjusted Net Income by GAAP weighted-average common shares outstanding (basic and diluted).

Adjusted EBITDA is defined as Net Income before depreciation and amortization, interest expense, income taxes, and adjusted to add back certain charges and expenses, such as non-cash compensation costs and other items outlined in the reconciliation table below, as these charges and expenses are not considered a part of our core business operations and are not an indicator of ongoing future Company performance.

Adjusted EBITDA Margin is calculated by dividing Adjusted EBITDA by Revenues.

Net Free Cash Generated is defined as Net Income before provision for credit losses and depreciation and amortization adjusted to add back certain non-cash charges and expenses, such as non-cash compensation costs, and reduced by cash used in investing activities and servicing of our debt obligations.

Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Earnings per Share, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, and Net Free Cash Generated are non-GAAP financial measures and should not be considered as an alternative to operating income net income, net income margin or earnings per share as a measure of operating performance or cash flows, or as a measure of liquidity. Non-GAAP financial measures are not necessarily calculated the same way by different companies and should not be considered a substitute for or superior to U.S. GAAP.

Reconciliations of Net Income, the Company’s closest GAAP measure, to Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted EBITDA, and Net Free Cash Generated, as well as a reconciliation of Earnings per Share to Adjusted Earnings per Share and Net Income Margin to Adjusted EBITDA Margin, are outlined in the tables below following the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. A quantitative reconciliation of projected Adjusted EBITDA to the most comparable GAAP measure is not available without unreasonable efforts because of the inherent difficulty in forecasting and quantifying the amounts necessary under GAAP guidance for operating or other adjusted items including, without limitation, costs and expenses related to acquisitions and other transactions, share-based compensation, tax effects of certain adjustments and losses related to legal contingencies or disposal of assets. For the same reasons, we are unable to address the probable significance of the unavailable information.
