HOUSTON, Oct. 27, 2016 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Cardtronics plc (Nasdaq:CATM) (“Cardtronics” or the “Company”), the world’s largest ATM owner/operator, announced today its financial and operational results for the quarter ended September 30, 2016.
Key financial statistics in the third quarter of 2016 as compared to the third quarter of 2015 include:
Total revenues of $328.3 million, up 6% from $311.4 million (up 11% on a constant-currency basis).
ATM operating revenues of $314.8 million, up 6% from $296.8 million (up 11% on a constant-currency basis).
Gross margin of 36.6%, up from 36.1% in 2015.
GAAP Net Income of $27.5 million, or $0.60 per diluted share, up from $22.0 million, or $0.48 per diluted share.
Adjusted Net Income per diluted share of $0.98, up 20% from $0.82 (up 26% on a constant-currency basis).
Adjusted EBITDA of $86.6 million, up 6% from $81.7 million (up 12% on a constant-currency basis).
Cash flows from operating activities of $89.3 million, up 48% from $60.5 million. For the nine months ended September 30, 2016, cash flows from operating activities were $213.9 million, up 45% from $147.1 million.
“The third quarter was exceptionally productive for our shareholders. Seven percent constant currency organic revenue growth, combined with solid execution in our classic business drivers, delivered a quarter of which the team can be proud. Allpoint sales, 1,300 new retail ATM locations, several long-term renewals, and the entry into Spain were key highlights. These activities were complemented by our first significant deal expanding our model beyond retail sites to financial institution branch locations. And then we ended the quarter announcing the acquisition of DirectCash Payments, the largest in our history, driving scale in Canada, the U.K., and Mexico, as well as adding Australia and New Zealand as new markets in the growing international roster of countries we serve,” commented Steve Rathgaber, Cardtronics’ chief executive officer.
RECENT HIGHLIGHTS
Secured ATM operating contracts representing over 1,000 locations in North America and Europe. These wins included placements at various retail and transit locations, including over 450 high-traffic convenience store locations.
Renewed our relationships with Kroger and Albertsons/Safeway, entering into long-term extensions to continue serving nearly 1,800 locations across the two grocery chains.
Added a total of 22 new financial institutions for participation in our Allpoint Network, adding nearly 670,000 cards that will have surcharge-free ATM access to our network, including an agreement with First Tennessee Bank, a top 50 bank and the largest financial institution headquartered in Tennessee.
Secured an outsourcing arrangement for both on-premise and off-premise ATMs with PenFed Credit Union for over 140 ATM locations.
Entered into an agreement to expand our bank-branding relationship with TD Bank for an additional 189 Walgreens locations in Florida.
Acquired over 300 off-branch ATM sites from a major financial institution in the U.K.
Launched our ATM business in Spain, including a relationship with the EURO 6000 ATM network and pilots with two major retailers.
Announced the planned acquisition of DirectCash Payments Inc. (“DCPayments”), a leading operator of approximately 25,000 ATMs across Australia, Canada, the U.K., New Zealand, and Mexico. The acquisition is subject to the DCPayments shareholder vote and other closing conditions and is expected to close early in the first quarter of 2017.
THIRD QUARTER RESULTS
Consolidated revenues totaled $328.3 million for the third quarter of 2016, representing a 6% increase from $311.4 million in the third quarter of 2015. ATM operating revenues were up 6% from the third quarter of 2015. Adjusting for movements in currency exchange rates, ATM operating revenues were up approximately 11% from the third quarter of 2015, the majority of which was driven by organic growth.
ATM operating revenues in North America were up 9% for the third quarter of 2016, driven by a mix of acquisition and organic growth. ATM operating revenues in Europe, as reported in U.S. dollars, were approximately flat compared to the same period in 2015, but increased 16% on a constant-currency basis, driven mostly by organic growth. The recent strong appreciation in the U.S. dollar relative to the British pound significantly impacted the Company’s reported revenues and profits in the third quarter. The British pound was on average 15% weaker relative to the U.S. dollar during the third quarter of 2016 compared to the same period a year ago.
GAAP Net Income in the third quarter of 2016 totaled $27.5 million, compared to GAAP Net Income of $22.0 million during the third quarter of 2015. The increase in GAAP Net Income for the third quarter of 2016 was the result of continued revenue growth and a lower tax rate, partially offset by incremental professional services costs of $2.7 million associated with the Company’s acquisition activities and $1.0 million associated with the Company’s redomicile of its parent company to the U.K. These costs are reported in the acquisition and divestiture-related expenses and redomicile-related expenses line items, respectively, in the Company’s results from operations and have been excluded from the Company’s calculation of Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income, and Adjusted Net Income per diluted share in the third quarter of 2016. The Company’s U.S. GAAP tax rate was 23.4% for the third quarter of 2016 compared to 36.8% in the same period in 2015, with the decrease mostly attributable to benefits from its recently completed redomicile to the U.K.
Adjusted EBITDA for the third quarter of 2016 totaled $86.6 million, representing a 6% increase (12% on a constant-currency basis) over the $81.7 million of Adjusted EBITDA during the third quarter of 2015. Adjusted Net Income totaled $44.7 million ($0.98 per diluted share or $1.03 on a constant-currency basis) for the third quarter of 2016, compared to $37.2 million ($0.82 per diluted share) during the third quarter of 2015. The increases in Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Net Income were both driven by the Company’s revenue growth. Adjusted Net Income was also higher as a result of a lower non-GAAP tax rate. Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Net Income are detailed in a reconciliation included at the end of this press release.
NINE MONTH RESULTS
Consolidated revenues totaled $955.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016, representing a 7% increase from $897.0 million in consolidated revenues during the same period of 2015. ATM operating revenues were up 9% from the nine months ended September 30, 2015. Adjusting for movements in currency exchange rates, ATM operating revenues were up approximately 12% for the nine months ended September 30, 2016, driven by organic growth and contributions from acquisitions. The $17.4 million decrease in ATM product sales and other revenues in the nine months ended September 30, 2016 was attributable to the Company’s 2015 divestiture of the retail cash-in-transit component of its previously acquired Sunwin business in the U.K., which was included in the Company’s 2015 results. Cost of ATM product sales and other revenues decreased correspondingly by $16.3 million from the same period in 2015.
ATM operating revenues in North America were up 8% for the nine months ended September 30, 2016, driven by a combination of recent acquisitions and organic growth. ATM operating revenues in Europe were up 7% for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 (18% on a constant-currency basis), driven by strong organic growth, and to a lesser extent, acquisition-related growth.
GAAP Net Income for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 totaled $63.0 million, compared to GAAP Net Income of $52.2 million during the same period in 2015. The increase in GAAP Net Income for the nine months of 2016 was the result of continued revenue growth and margin expansion, partially offset by incremental professional services costs of $4.9 million associated with the Company’s acquisition activities and $12.2 million associated with the Company’s redomicile of its parent company to the U.K. These costs are reported in the acquisition and divestiture-related expenses and redomicile-related expenses line items, respectively, in the Company’s results from operations and have been excluded from the Company’s calculation of Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income, and Adjusted Net Income per diluted share in the nine months ended September 30, 2016.
Adjusted EBITDA for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 totaled $241.4 million, representing an 8% increase from the same period in 2015. Adjusted Net Income totaled $112.8 million ($2.47 per diluted share) for the nine months ended September 30, 2016, compared to $98.6 million ($2.17 per diluted share) during the same period in 2015. The increases in Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Net Income were primarily due to the same factors discussed above, including the Company’s revenue growth and margin improvement relative to the nine months ended September 30, 2015. For the nine months ended September 30, 2016, cash flows from operating activities were $213.9 million, up 45% from $147.1 million.
2016 GUIDANCE
The Company is updating the financial guidance it provided in July 2016 regarding its anticipated results for the full year 2016 results:
Revenues of $1.25 billion to $1.265 billion;
Gross profit margin of 35.5% to 35.7%;
GAAP Net Income of $84 million to $85 million;
Adjusted EBITDA of $317 million to $319 million;
Depreciation and accretion expense of $91 million to $92 million;
Cash interest expense $17.5 million;
Adjusted Net Income per diluted share of $3.21 to $3.26, based on approximately 45.8 million weighted average diluted shares outstanding; and
Capital expenditures of $120 million to $130 million.
The Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Net Income guidance excludes the impact of certain expenses, as outlined in the reconciliation provided at the end of this press release. This guidance is based on average foreign currency exchange rates for the remainder of the year of £1.00 U.K. to $1.20 U.S., $20.00 Mexican pesos to $1.00 U.S., $1.00 Canadian dollar to $0.76 U.S., and €1.00 Euros to $1.10 U.S. Additionally, this guidance is based on an estimated tax rate of approximately 29% for the last three months of 2016.
LIQUIDITY
The Company had no outstanding borrowings under its $375 million revolving credit facility due in 2021 and $60 million in cash on hand as of September 30, 2016. The revolving credit facility was amended July 1, 2016 to extend the maturity date from April 2019 to July 2021. The Company’s outstanding indebtedness as of September 30, 2016 consisted of $250 million in Senior Notes due 2022 and $288 million Convertible Senior Notes due 2020. The Senior Notes and Convertible Senior Notes have carrying balances of $247 million and $238 million, respectively, and are reflected as long-term debt on the balance sheet, net of unamortized discount and capitalized debt issuance costs.
As previously reported, the Company entered into a definitive agreement on October 3, 2016 to acquire all of the outstanding shares of DCPayments. Inclusive of amounts needed to repay the estimated outstanding indebtedness of DCPayments, the Company expects the total purchase price will be approximately CAD$605 million (approximately $460 million), excluding any associated transaction-related costs. The Company is currently assessing options for financing the acquisition and has secured commitments from financial institutions in its existing revolving credit facility to provide the borrowing capacity needed to complete the acquisition. The acquisition is expected to close early in the first quarter of 2017, subject to the DCPayments shareholder vote and other closing conditions.

DISCLOSURE OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL INFORMATION
EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Net Income per diluted share, Free Cash Flow, and certain U.S. GAAP as well as non-GAAP measures on a constant-currency basis represent non-GAAP financial measures provided as a complement to results prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP and may not be comparable to similarly-titled measures reported by other companies. The Company uses these non-GAAP financial measures in managing and measuring the performance of its business, including setting and measuring incentive based compensation for management. Management believes that the presentation of these measures and the identification of notable, non-cash, and/or (if applicable in a particular period) certain costs not anticipated to occur in future periods enhance an investor’s understanding of the underlying trends in the Company’s business and provide for better comparability between periods in different years.
Adjusted EBITDA excludes depreciation, accretion, and amortization of intangible assets as these amounts can vary substantially from company to company within the Company’s industry depending upon accounting methods and book values of assets, capital structures, and the methods by which the assets were acquired. Adjusted EBITDA also excludes stock-based compensation expense, acquisition and divestiture-related expenses, certain non-operating expenses, certain costs not anticipated to occur in future periods (if applicable in a particular period), gains or losses on disposal of assets, the Company’s obligations for the payment of income taxes, interest expense, and other obligations such as capital expenditures, and includes an adjustment for noncontrolling interests. Adjusted Net Income represents net income computed in accordance with U.S. GAAP, before amortization of intangible assets, gains or losses on disposal of assets, stock-based compensation expense, certain other expense amounts, acquisition and divestiture-related expenses, certain non-operating expenses, and (if applicable in a particular period) certain costs not anticipated to occur in future periods (together, the “Adjustments”). Prior to June 30, 2016, Adjusted Net Income was calculated using an estimated long-term, cross-jurisdictional effective cash tax rate of 32%. Subsequent to the redomicile of the Company’s parent company to the U.K., the Company has revised the process for determining its non-GAAP tax rate and now utilizes a non-GAAP tax rate derived from the U.S. GAAP tax rate adjusted for the net tax effects of the identified Adjustments, based on the nature and geography of the Adjustments. For the three month period ended September 30, 2016, the non-GAAP tax rate used to calculate Adjusted Net Income was approximately 24.2%. For the nine months ended September 30, 2016, the Company used 24.2% for the quarter ended September 30, 2016 and for the six months ended June 30, 2016, its previous estimated long-term cross-jurisdictional tax rate of 32%. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015, the Company used its previous estimated long-term cross-jurisdictional tax rate of 32%. Adjusted Net Income per diluted share is calculated by dividing Adjusted Net Income by weighted average diluted shares outstanding. Free Cash Flow is defined as cash provided by operating activities less payments for capital expenditures, including those financed through direct debt but excluding acquisitions. The Free Cash Flow measure does not take into consideration certain other non-discretionary cash requirements such as mandatory principal payments on portions of the Company’s long-term debt. Management calculates certain U.S. GAAP as well as non-GAAP measures on a constant-currency basis using the average foreign currency exchange rates applicable in the corresponding period of the previous year and applying these rates to the measures. Management uses U.S. GAAP as well as non-GAAP measures on a constant-currency basis to assess performance and eliminate the effect foreign currency exchange rates have on comparability between periods.
The non-GAAP financial measures presented herein should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for operating income, net income, cash flows from operating, investing, or financing activities, or other income or cash flow measures prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Reconciliations of the non-GAAP financial measures used herein to the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measures are presented in tabular form at the end of this press release.

(2) Noncontrolling interests adjustment made such that Adjusted EBITDA includes only the Company’s ownership interest in the Adjusted EBITDA of its Mexico subsidiary. In December 2015, the Company increased its ownership interest in its Mexico subsidiary from 51% to 95.7%. (3) For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015, amounts exclude a portion of the expenses incurred by the Company’s Mexico subsidiary to account for the amounts allocable to the noncontrolling interest stockholders.

(6) Amounts exclude a portion of the expenses incurred by the Company’s Mexico subsidiary to account for the amounts allocable to the noncontrolling interest stockholders. In December 2015, the Company increased its ownership interest in its Mexico subsidiary. (7) Calculated using an effective tax rate of approximately 24.2% for the three months ended September 30, 2016, which represents the Company’s U.S. GAAP tax rate as adjusted for the tax effects related to the items excluded from Adjusted Net Income. For the nine months ended September 30, 2016, the Company used 24.2% for the quarter ended September 30, 2016 and for the six months ended June 30, 2016, its previous estimated long-term cross-jurisdictional tax rate of 32%.
