FLEETCOR® Reports Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2023 Financial Results

All-time record annual revenues and earnings

Increased Revolver capacity $600 million and plans to repurchase $800 million of shares in 2024

FLEETCOR Technologies, Inc. (NYSE: FLT), a leading global business payments company, today reported financial results for its fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2023.

“2023 was a very successful year for the Company. We delivered full year organic revenue growth of 10% and EBITDA growth of 13%, which are in line with our long-term growth targets,” said Ron Clarke, chairman and chief executive officer, FLEETCOR Technologies, Inc. “Our Corporate Payments segment grew 19% for the year and now represents over 25% of total revenue. Additionally, we made meaningful advances in our EV capabilities, and we now have the best charge point network in the UK and Western Europe, having adding Tesla in the fourth quarter.”

Financial Results for Fourth Quarter of 2023:

GAAP Results

  • Revenues increased 6% to $937.3 million in the fourth quarter of 2023, compared with $883.6 million in the fourth quarter of 2022.
  • Net income increased 14% to $255.9 million in the fourth quarter of 2023, compared with $225.3 million in the fourth quarter of 2022.
  • Net income per diluted share increased 15% to $3.48 in the fourth quarter of 2023, compared with $3.03 per diluted share in the fourth quarter of 2022.

Non-GAAP Results1

  • EBITDA1 increased 11% to $508.1 million in the fourth quarter of 2023, compared to $459.3 million in the fourth quarter of 2022.
  • Adjusted net income1 increased 9% to $326.1 million in the fourth quarter of 2023 compared with $300.2 million in the fourth quarter of 2022.
  • Adjusted net income per diluted share1 increased 10% to $4.44 in the fourth quarter of 2023, compared with $4.04 per diluted share in the fourth quarter of 2022.

Financial Results for Full Year 2023:

GAAP Results

  • Revenues increased 10% to $3,757.7 million in 2023, compared with $3,427.1 million in 2022.
  • Net income increased 3% to $981.9 million in 2023, compared with $954.3 million in 2022.
  • Net income per diluted share increased 6% to $13.20 in 2023, compared with $12.42 per diluted share in 2022.

Non-GAAP Results1

  • EBITDA1 increased 13% to $1,994.2 million in 2023, compared with $1,769.2 million in 2022.
  • Adjusted net income1 increased 2% to $1,258.6 million in 2023, compared with $1,236.7 million in 2022.
  • Adjusted net income per diluted share1 increased 5% to $16.92 in 2023, compared with $16.10 in 2022.

“Our fourth quarter revenue and adjusted earnings per share came in slightly behind our expectations due to pockets of softness in some of our U.S. businesses,” said Tom Panther, chief financial officer, FLEETCOR Technologies, Inc. “We tightly managed operating expenses, exiting the year with an EBITDA margin of 54.2%, which was 220 basis points better than the prior year quarter. For the full year, record revenues and earnings drove nearly $2 billion of EBITDA and $1.3 billion of adjusted net income. We ended the year with over $2.2 billion of liquidity and expect to repurchase $800 million of shares in 2024," concluded Panther.

Interest Rate Swaps and Buybacks:

The Company repurchased approximately 0.6 million shares in the fourth quarter of 2023 and a total of 2.6 million shares for $687 million for the year. Additionally, in December, the Company entered into $500 million of interest rate swaps to replace the swap that expired in December. The Company has now fixed approximately 60% of the floating rate debt in its Credit and Securitization Facilities.

Increased Revolver Capacity, $800 Million of Share Repurchases and Upsize of Share Repurchase Authorization:

On January 31, 2024, the Company closed on an amendment to its pro rata Term Loan A and Revolver A Credit Facility. The transaction results in a $600 million increase in the Company’s capacity under its revolver. Interest rate and maturity terms remain consistent with the existing credit facilities.

In addition, the Company expects to enter into a 10b5-1 plan, which supports the Company's plan to repurchase up to $800 million of shares during 2024. On January 25, 2024, the Board authorized an increase to the aggregate size of the Company's Share Repurchase Program by $1.0 billion, with approximately $1.6 billion remaining, and extended the Program through February 4, 2025.

Fiscal Year 2024 Outlook:

“Our 2024 outlook for the Company calls for 20% sales growth, organic revenue growth of 8% to 10%, and adjusted net income growth in the mid-teens. Volumes and revenue should build throughout the year, as we continue to benefit from our growth investments, seasonality, and an improving economic outlook. Our balance sheet is in great shape with low leverage and significant liquidity,” said Tom Panther, chief financial officer, FLEETCOR Technologies, Inc.

For full year 2024, FLEETCOR Technologies, Inc. financial guidance1 is as follows:

  • Total revenues between $4,040 million and $4,120 million;
  • GAAP net income between $1,090 million and $1,130 million;
  • GAAP net income per diluted share between $15.40 and $15.80;
  • Adjusted net income between $1,360 million and $1,400 million; and
  • Adjusted net income per diluted share between $19.20 and $19.60.

FLEETCOR’s guidance assumptions for the full year are as follows:

  • Weighted average U.S. fuel prices equal to $3.65 per gallon;
  • Fuel spreads flat with the 2023 average;
  • Foreign exchange rates equal to the historical 30-day average;
  • Interest expense between $340 million and $370 million;
  • Bad debt expense slightly below 2023;
  • Approximately 71 million fully diluted shares outstanding;
  • A tax rate of approximately 25% to 26%; and
  • No impact related to material acquisitions not already closed.

First Quarter of 2024 Outlook:

The Company expects first quarter revenues between $925 million and $945 million and adjusted net income per diluted share between $4.02 and $4.12. Recall that the prior year quarter includes the results from our Russia business sold in August 2023. The first quarter of 2024 is also impacted by the negative impact from higher interest rates and a decline in late fees from tightened credit, creating headwinds to revenue and net income. Furthermore, the Company has historically experienced seasonality in the first quarter, causing it to be the lowest in terms of both revenues and net income for the year; as certain businesses such as vehicle payments and lodging tend to have lighter first quarters due to weather and holidays.

Conference Call:

The Company will host a conference call to discuss fourth quarter and full year 2023 financial results today at 5:30 pm ET. Hosting the call will be Ron Clarke, chief executive officer, Tom Panther, chief financial officer and Jim Eglseder, investor relations.

These factors could cause our actual results and experience to differ materially from any forward-looking statement made herein. The forward-looking statements included in this press release are made only as of the date hereof and we do not undertake, and specifically disclaim, any obligation to update any such statements as a result of new information, future events or developments, except as specifically stated or to the extent required by law. You may access FLEETCOR’s SEC filings for free by visiting the SEC web site at www.sec.gov.

About Non-GAAP Financial Measures:

This press release includes non-GAAP financial measures, which are used by the Company as supplemental measures to evaluate its overall operating performance. The Company’s definitions of the non-GAAP financial measures used herein may differ from similarly titled measures used by others, including within our industry. By providing these non-GAAP financial measures, together with reconciliations to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures, we believe we are enhancing investors’ understanding of our business and our results of operations, as well as assisting investors in evaluating how well we are executing strategic initiatives. See the appendix for additional information regarding these non-GAAP financial measures and a reconciliation to the most directly comparable GAAP measure.

The Company refers to free cash flow, cash net income and adjusted net income interchangeably, a non-GAAP financial measure. Adjusted net income is calculated as net income, adjusted to eliminate (a) non-cash share based compensation expense related to share based compensation awards, (b) amortization of deferred financing costs, discounts, intangible assets, and amortization of the premium recognized on the purchase of receivables, (c) integration and deal related costs, and (d) other non-recurring items, including unusual credit losses, the impact of discrete tax items, the impact of business dispositions, impairment charges, asset write-offs, restructuring costs, loss on extinguishment of debt, and legal settlements and related legal fees. We adjust net income for the tax effect of adjustments using our effective income tax rate, exclusive of discrete tax items. We calculate adjusted net income and adjusted net income per diluted share to eliminate the effect of items that we do not consider indicative of our core operating performance.

Adjusted net income and adjusted net income per diluted share are supplemental measures of operating performance that do not represent and should not be considered as an alternative to net income, net income per diluted share or cash flow from operations, as determined by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, or U.S. GAAP. We believe it is useful to exclude non-cash share based compensation expense from adjusted net income because non-cash equity grants made at a certain price and point in time do not necessarily reflect how our business is performing at any particular time and share based compensation expense is not a key measure of our core operating performance. We also believe that amortization expense can vary substantially from company to company and from period to period depending upon their financing and accounting methods, the fair value and average expected life of their acquired intangible assets, their capital structures and the method by which their assets were acquired; therefore, we have excluded amortization expense from our adjusted net income. Integration and deal related costs represent business acquisition transaction costs, professional services fees, short-term retention bonuses and system migration costs, etc., that are not indicative of the performance of the underlying business. We also believe that certain expenses, discrete tax items, gains on business disposition, recoveries (e.g. legal settlements, write-off of customer receivable, etc.), gains and losses on investments, and impairment charges do not necessarily reflect how our investments and business are performing. We adjust net income for the tax effect of each of these adjustments items using the effective tax rate during the period, exclusive of discrete tax items.

Organic revenue growth is calculated as revenue growth in the current period adjusted for the impact of changes in the macroeconomic environment (to include fuel price, fuel price spreads and changes in foreign exchange rates) over revenue in the comparable prior period adjusted to include or remove the impact of acquisitions and/or divestitures and non-recurring items that have occurred subsequent to that period. We believe that organic revenue growth on a macro-neutral, one-time item, and consistent acquisition/divestiture/non-recurring item basis is useful to investors for understanding the performance of FLEETCOR.

EBITDA is defined as earnings before interest, income taxes, interest expense, net, other expense (income), depreciation and amortization, loss on extinguishment of debt, investment loss/gain and other operating, net. EBITDA margin is defined as EBITDA as a percentage of revenue.

Management uses adjusted net income, adjusted net income per diluted share, organic revenue growth and EBITDA:

  • as measurements of operating performance because they assist us in comparing our operating performance on a consistent basis;
  • for planning purposes, including the preparation of our internal annual operating budget;
  • to allocate resources to enhance the financial performance of our business; and
  • to evaluate the performance and effectiveness of our operational strategies.
