MONTREAL, May 10, 2021 – Nuvei Corporation (“Nuvei” or the “Company”) (TSX: NVEI and NVEI.U), the global payment technology partner of thriving brands, today reported its financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2021.

“We’re very pleased with our results for the first quarter with both continuing momentum in the core business and the acceleration of new client wins contributing to 132% total volume* growth, 80% revenue growth and 97% Adjusted EBITDA** growth over the first quarter of 2020,” said Philip Fayer, Nuvei’s Chair and CEO. “Our focus on building leading-edge solutions to facilitate and help our clients best connect with their clients continued during the first quarter as we expanded our reach with new markets, added multiple alternative payment methods (“APMs”) and introduced new capabilities like supporting payment in cryptocurrencies. These initiatives coupled with significant volume growth from current and new clients position us extremely well to drive our overall performance and growth this year and into the future. We are proud of our results and raising our financial outlook for the full year 2021.”

Financial Highlights for the Three Months Ended March 31, 2021

• Total volume* increased 132%, to $20.6 billion from $8.9 billion
• eCommerce represented approximately 87% of total volume
• Revenue increased 80%, to $149.9 million from $83.2 million
• Net income was $27.8 million compared to a net loss of $62.3 million
• Adjusted EBITDA** increased 97%, to $65.5 million from $33.3 million
• Adjusted net income** was $51.2 million compared to $9.8 million
• Net income per share of $0.19 compared to a net loss per share of $0.74
• Adjusted net income** per diluted share of $0.35 compared to $0.11

Operational Highlights

• Volume growth from current merchant customers and the acceleration of new client wins drove Nuvei’s first quarter performance. New eCommerce business more than tripled in the first quarter of 2021 compared to the first quarter of 2020 largely as a result of the Company’s ongoing investment in and expansion of its direct distribution channel.
• Nuvei expanded its card acquiring coverage launching local processing solutions in Argentina, Chile, Peru and Ecuador, while expanding its acquiring capabilities in Brazil, Colombia and Mexico. The Company now provides local acquiring in 44 markets up from 35 at year end 2020.
• The Company added multiple new APMs including Pix in Brazil, MoMo wallet in Vietnam, PagueloFacil in Panama, Mach in Chile, Kakao Pay in South Korea, TrueMoney in Thailand and Alipay HK in Hong Kong, increasing the Company’s portfolio of APMs to 470 at the end of the first quarter of 2021 from 455 at year end 2020.
• The Company recently added pay-in and payout support for nearly 40 of the world’s leading cryptocurrencies, including Bitcoin, Ethereum, Bitcoin Cash, Litecoin, NEO and XRP. With this capability, merchants can now accept cryptocurrencies as easily as any other form of alternative payment method at a time when both the number of cryptocurrency users continues to expand and mainstream adoption steadily increases.
• The Company entered into several new partnerships including one with Universal Air Travel Plan (“UATP”) to begin offering full payment services as part of UATP’s ongoing effort to expand its offerings to airlines, optimize payment processing, enrich the client experience and lower transaction costs. UATP is a global payment network owned and operated by the world’s leading airlines and accepted by thousands of merchants for air, rail and travel agency payments.
• Nuvei continued to execute on its acquisition strategy by announcing definitive agreements to acquire Mazooma Technical Services Inc. (“Mazooma”) and more recently, SimplexCC Ltd. (“Simplex”).
• The acquisition of Mazooma, a leading account-to-account payments provider to the U.S. online gaming and sports betting market, will further solidify the Company’s commitment to and presence in the U.S. online gaming and sports betting industry by enhancing and expanding Nuvei’s portfolio of alternative payment methods with a leading ACH platform developed and used exclusively for online gaming in the U.S. and providing the necessary product functionality, vendor registration, compliance, and operational infrastructure to address merchant’s requirements in any regulated U.S. state.
• The acquisition of Simplex, a payment solution provider to the cryptocurrency industry, will expand Nuvei’s capabilities to offer bespoke anti-money laundering / know your customer solutions, transaction guarantee solutions, and valued added services to 190 liquidity providers and partners. This results in higher conversion rates when end-users buy/sell digital assets like cryptocurrencies and non fungible tokens. In addition, the acquisition will provide Nuvei with an electronic money institution license to offer international bank account number accounts to end users and merchants, which opens up potential opportunities like banking as a service.

Financial Outlook

For the three months ending June 30, 2021 and year ending December 31, 2021, Nuvei anticipates total volume, revenue and Adjusted EBITDA to be in the ranges below. Considering the strong performance during the three months ended March 31, 2021, where Nuvei exceeded the previously anticipated total volume, revenue and Adjusted EBITDA outlook, as well as continuing momentum in the business, management is raising the financial outlook for the year ending December 31, 2021.

The financial outlook is fully qualified and based on a number of assumptions described under the heading “Forward-Looking Information” of this press release, and does not include the pending acquisitions of Mazooma or Simplex. 

‍

*Total volume does not represent revenue earned by the Company, but rather the total dollar value of transactions processed by merchants under contractual agreement with the Company. Total volume is explained in further detail in the Company’s most recent Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

**Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted net income are non-IFRS measures. See “Non-IFRS Measures”.

Non-IFRS Measures

Nuvei’s unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with IFRS as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board. The information presented in this press release includes non-IFRS financial measures, namely Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted net income, Adjusted net income per basic share, and Adjusted net income per diluted share. These measures are not recognized measures under IFRS and do not have standardized meanings prescribed by IFRS and are therefore unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. Rather, these measures are provided as additional information to complement IFRS measures by providing further understanding of the Company’s results of operations from management’s perspective. Accordingly, these measures should not be considered in isolation nor as a substitute for analysis of the Company’s financial information reported under IFRS. Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted net income, Adjusted net income per basic share, and Adjusted net income per diluted share are used to provide investors with a supplemental measure of the Company’s operating performance and thus highlight trends in Nuvei’s core business that may not otherwise be apparent when relying solely on IFRS measures. The Company’s management also believes that securities analysts, investors and other interested parties frequently use non-IFRS measures in the evaluation of issuers. Nuvei’s management also uses non-IFRS measures in order to facilitate operating performance comparisons from period to period, to prepare annual operating budgets and forecasts and to determine components of management compensation. The Company’s management believes Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted net income, Adjusted net income per basic share and Adjusted net income per diluted share are important supplemental measures of Nuvei’s performance, primarily because they and similar measures are used widely among others in the payment technology industry as a means of evaluating a company’s underlying operating performance.

Forward-Looking Information

This press release contains “forward-looking information” within the meaning of applicable securities laws, including Nuvei’s outlook on total volume, revenue and Adjusted EBITDA for the three months ending June 30, 2021 and the year ending December 31, 2021. Nuvei’s outlook on revenue and Adjusted EBITDA also constitutes “financial outlook” within the meaning of applicable securities laws and is provided for the purposes of assisting the reader in understanding the Company’s financial performance and measuring progress toward management’s objectives and the reader is cautioned that it may not be appropriate for other purposes. Forward-looking information involves known and unknown risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond the Company’s control, that could cause actual results to differ materially from those that are disclosed in or implied by such forward-looking information. These risks and uncertainties include but are not limited to those described under the “Risks Factors” section of the Company’s annual information form filed on March 17, 2021. Forward-looking information is based on management’s beliefs and assumptions and on information currently available to management. Particularly, management’s assessments of, and outlook for, total volume, revenue and Adjusted EBITDA set out herein are generally based on the following assumptions: (a) Nuvei’s results of operations will continue as expected, (b) the Company will continue to effectively execute against its key strategic growth priorities, despite the current COVID-19 pandemic and measures taken to contain the virus, (c) the Company will continue to retain and grow its existing customer base while adding new customers, (d) the Company will not complete any acquisitions or divestitures (e) economic conditions will remain relatively stable throughout the period, (f) the industries Nuvei operates in will continue to grow consistent with past experience, (g) there will be no fluctuations in currency exchange rates and volatility in financial markets, (h) there will be no changes in legislative or regulatory matters that negatively impact Nuvei’s business, and (i) current tax laws will remain in effect and will not be materially changed. Although the forward-looking information contained in this press release is based upon what management believes are reasonable assumptions, you are cautioned against placing undue reliance on this information since actual results may vary from the forward-looking information. Unless otherwise noted or the context otherwise indicates, the forward-looking information contained in this press release is provided as of the date of this press release, and the Company does not undertake to update or amend such forward-looking information whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as may be required by applicable law.

MONTREAL, Dec. 14, 2021 — The Board of Directors of Nuvei Corporation (“Nuvei” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq: NVEI) (TSX: NVEI), the global payment technology partner of thriving brands, today released its statement of support for the Company and its executive team as part of its review of the allegations made in a recent short-seller report.

Immediately following the release of the report last week making a series of allegations against Nuvei, the Company’s Board led by its independent directors retained legal counsel to assist in determining whether the claims had any merit. Based on the review initiated last week, the Board believes that the claims are misleading, false or unrelated to Nuvei’s business. The Board is confident that Nuvei’s financial and other disclosures are accurate in all material respects.

Michael Hanley, lead independent director of Nuvei, stated, “As a leading and growing global payment technology provider, integrity is essential to Nuvei’s business and is the cornerstone of its commitment to all stakeholders, including its employees, customers and shareholders. We stand firmly behind the Nuvei executive team and its track record. The report is nothing more than a self-serving attempt to inflict damage on the Company’s business and its leadership and generate a profit at the expense of Nuvei’s stakeholders.”

Nuvei has been subject to extensive due diligence, both by its private equity control investors as well as in connection with its public offerings and listings on the Toronto Stock Exchange and the Nasdaq. Moreover, Nuvei operates in a highly regulated environment and is continuously subject to extensive diligence and audits by regulators, bank partners, customers, card schemes and other industry stakeholders in all markets in which the Company operates.

Phil Fayer, Chair and CEO said, “The allegations made against Nuvei are malicious and unfounded. I stand behind all our employees as we continue to execute on our strategy with a relentless focus on supporting our customers and making the world a local marketplace. We will not allow the report to distract us any further and we remain unwavering in our commitment to drive growth and value for our shareholders.”

Mr. Fayer added, “We remain on track to deliver our full year 2021 financial outlook disclosed on November 9, 2021 and reiterate our medium and long-term growth targets, reflecting our continued momentum around driving innovation, growth and new customer wins.”

“We are excited to embark on a new chapter with Advent, Novacap and CDPQ, one focused on our long-term strategy and commitment to accelerating the revenue of our customers globally,” said Fayer. “For more than 20 years we have provided customers with mission-critical solutions they need to execute on their growth journeys. This commitment will remain the same as we continue to build deeper partnerships with our customers by providing them modern, flexible and purpose-built technology. A key part of this next phase will be the implementation of our Value Creation Plan, a comprehensive strategic exercise designed to optimize our operations as we execute on various opportunities for accelerated growth. Advent joins our long-standing investors, Novacap and CDPQ, who remain meaningful investors and believe in a dynamic and successful future for Nuvei,” concluded Fayer.

“Since 2017, we have been privileged to support Nuvei’s management in executing its ambitious global growth strategy. Together with a leadership team that continually drives innovation and builds meaningful partnerships across industries, Nuvei has established itself as a fintech leader in key verticals with sustainable, long-term growth potential. As the Company embarks on an exciting new chapter of expansion, we look forward to strengthening our collaboration and unlocking new opportunities to create lasting value for all stakeholders," said David Lewin, Lead Senior Partner at Novacap.

“Ever since our first investment in Nuvei in 2017, CDPQ is proud to have supported this Québec fintech leader at every stage of its growth, particularly through acquisitions on a global scale. We are delighted to accompany Nuvei once again as it embarks on this new chapter of its history, alongside recognized partners such as Advent, as well as existing shareholders Philip Fayer and Novacap,” said Kim Thomassin, Executive Vice-President and Head of Québec at CDPQ.

Bo Huang, Managing Director at Advent, said: “We are excited to begin this partnership and support Nuvei’s growth through investments and acquisitions to best serve its customers globally as a modern payments partner.”
