WEX Inc. Reports Second Quarter 2021 Financial Results

WEX Inc. (NYSE: WEX), a leading financial technology service provider, today reported financial results for the three months ended June 30, 2021.

“Momentum continued through the second quarter as we delivered robust revenue and earnings growth, signed new customer and renewed existing business, and more than doubled total purchase volume processed across the Company compared to last year to $21 billion. These exceptional results reflect strong execution from the WEX team, positive trends across the business and strong demand for our platform and services as volumes continue to recover,” said Melissa Smith, WEX’s Chair and Chief Executive Officer.

Ms. Smith added, “We are driving innovative new solutions to meet the needs of businesses of all sizes and level of complexity. The combination of our value based culture, deep payment expertise, innovative technologies and knowledge in configuring integrated solutions, continues to open the door for new opportunities for WEX. Looking ahead to the second half of the year, we are positioning the business for future growth as demand for our platform and services accelerates with the increasing adoption of digital payment technologies.”

Second Quarter 2021 Financial Results

Total revenue for the second quarter of 2021 increased 32% to $459.5 million from $347.1 million for the second quarter of 2020. This revenue increase in the quarter includes a $33.3 million favorable impact from fuel prices and spreads and a $4.6 million positive impact from foreign exchange rates.

Net (loss) income attributable to shareholders on a GAAP basis decreased by $106.5 million to a net loss of $33.9 million, or $(0.76) per diluted share, compared with net income of $72.7 million, or $1.66 per diluted share, for the second quarter of 2020. The Company's adjusted net income attributable to shareholders, which is a non-GAAP measure, was $104.9 million for the second quarter of 2021, or $2.31 per diluted share, up 91% per diluted share from $53.0 million or $1.21 per diluted share for the same period last year. See Exhibit 1 for a full explanation and reconciliation of adjusted net income attributable to shareholders and adjusted net income attributable to shareholders per diluted share to the comparable GAAP measures.

Second Quarter 2021 Performance Metrics

  • Average number of vehicles serviced was approximately 16.2 million, an increase of 7% from the second quarter of 2020.
  • Total fuel transactions processed increased 24% from the second quarter of 2020 to 158.7 million. Payment processing transactions increased 26% to 130.1 million.
  • Travel and Corporate Solutions' purchase volume grew 176% to $8.7 billion from $3.2 billion in the second quarter of 2020.
  • Health and Employee Benefit Solutions' average number of Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) accounts in the U.S. grew 13% to 16.4 million from 14.5 million in the second quarter of 2020.

“We delivered impressive top- and bottom-line results in the second quarter representing the highest revenue and adjusted earnings for Q2 in WEX history. This was driven primarily by better-than-expected volume recovery in our Fleet Solutions and Travel and Corporate Solutions segments, higher fuel prices, and robust operating income margins across each of our segments,” said Roberto Simon, WEX’s Chief Financial Officer. “We continue to position WEX for long-term sustainable growth as we execute against our customer pipeline, integrate recent acquisitions including benefitexpress, and drive innovation across our technology platform.”

Financial Guidance and Assumptions

The Company provides revenue guidance on a GAAP basis and earnings guidance on a non-GAAP basis, due to the uncertainty and the indeterminate amount of certain elements that are included in reported GAAP earnings.

  • For the third quarter of 2021, the Company expects revenue in the range of $465 million to $480 million and adjusted net income in the range of $98 million to $107 million, or $2.15 to $2.35 per diluted share.
  • For the full year 2021, the Company expects revenue in the range of $1.805 billion to $1.835 billion and adjusted net income in the range of $377 million to $395 million, or $8.30 to $8.70 per diluted share.

Third quarter and full year 2021 guidance is based on an assumed average U.S. retail fuel price of $3.18 and $3.00 per gallon, respectively. The fuel prices referenced above are based on the applicable NYMEX futures price from the week of July 16, 2021. Our guidance assumes approximately 45.4 million shares outstanding for the full year.

The Company's adjusted net income guidance, which is a non-GAAP measure, excludes unrealized gains and losses on financial instruments, net foreign currency gains and losses, change in fair value of contingent consideration, acquisition-related intangible amortization, other acquisition and divestiture related items, stock-based compensation, other costs, debt restructuring and debt issuance cost amortization, similar adjustments attributable to our non-controlling interests and certain tax related items. We are unable to reconcile our adjusted net income guidance to the comparable GAAP measure without unreasonable effort because of the difficulty in predicting the amounts to be adjusted, including, but not limited to, foreign currency exchange rates, unrealized gains and losses on financial instruments, acquisition and divestiture related items and adjustments to the redemption value of a non-controlling interest, which may have a significant impact on our financial results.

Additional Information

Management uses the non-GAAP measures presented within this news release to evaluate the Company's performance on a comparable basis. Management believes that investors may find these measures useful for the same purposes, but cautions that they should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, disclosure in accordance with GAAP.

To provide investors with additional insight into its operational performance, WEX has included in this news release in Exhibit 1, reconciliations of non-GAAP measures referenced in this news release, in Exhibit 2, tables illustrating the impact of foreign currency rates and fuel prices for each of our reportable segments for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, and in Exhibit 3, a table of selected non-financial metrics for the quarter ended June 30, 2021 and four preceding quarters. The Company is also providing segment revenue for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 in Exhibit 4 and information regarding segment adjusted operating income margin and adjusted operating income margin in Exhibit 5.

1 As the Company reported a net loss for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 under U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”), the diluted weighted average shares outstanding equals the basic weighted average shares outstanding for those periods. The non-GAAP adjustments described above resulted in adjusted net income attributable to shareholders (versus a loss on a GAAP basis) for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021. Therefore, dilutive common stock equivalents have been included in the calculation of adjusted diluted weighted average shares outstanding to arrive at adjusted per share data.

The Company's non-GAAP adjusted net income excludes unrealized gains and losses on financial instruments, net foreign currency gains and losses, changes in fair value of contingent consideration, acquisition-related intangible amortization, other acquisition and divestiture related items, stock-based compensation, other costs, debt restructuring and debt issuance cost amortization, adjustments attributable to our non-controlling interests and certain tax related items.

The Company's non-GAAP adjusted operating income excludes acquisition-related intangible amortization, other acquisition and divestiture related items, stock-based compensation, other costs, and debt restructuring costs. Total segment adjusted operating income incorporates these same adjustments and further excludes unallocated corporate expenses.

Although adjusted net income, adjusted operating income and total segment adjusted operating income are not calculated in accordance with GAAP, these non-GAAP measures are integral to the Company's reporting and planning processes and the chief operating decision maker of the Company uses segment adjusted operating income to allocate resources among our operating segments. The Company considers these measures integral because they exclude the above specified items that the Company's management excludes in evaluating the Company's performance. Specifically, in addition to evaluating the Company's performance on a GAAP basis, management evaluates the Company's performance on a basis that excludes the above items because:

  • Exclusion of the non-cash, mark-to-market adjustments on financial instruments, including interest rate swap agreements and investment securities, helps management identify and assess trends in the Company's underlying business that might otherwise be obscured due to quarterly non-cash earnings fluctuations associated with these financial instruments. Additionally, the non-cash mark-to-market adjustments on financial instruments are difficult to forecast accurately, making comparisons across historical and future quarters difficult to evaluate.
  • Net foreign currency gains and losses primarily result from the remeasurement to functional currency of cash, accounts receivable and accounts payable balances, certain intercompany notes denominated in foreign currencies and any gain or loss on foreign currency hedges relating to these items. The exclusion of these items helps management compare changes in operating results between periods that might otherwise be obscured due to currency fluctuations.
  • The change in fair value of contingent consideration, which is related to the acquisition of certain contractual rights to serve as custodian or sub-custodian to health savings accounts, is dependent upon changes in future interest rates and has no significant impact on the ongoing operations of the Company. Additionally, the non-cash, mark-to-market adjustments on financial instruments are difficult to forecast accurately, making comparisons across historical and future quarters difficult to evaluate.
  • The Company considers certain acquisition-related costs, including investment banking fees, warranty and indemnity insurance, certain integration related expenses and amortization of acquired intangibles, as well as gains and losses from divestitures, to be unpredictable, dependent on factors that may be outside of our control and unrelated to the continuing operations of the acquired or divested business or the Company. In addition, the size and complexity of an acquisition, which often drives the magnitude of acquisition-related costs, may not be indicative of such future costs. The Company believes that excluding acquisition-related costs and gains or losses on divestitures facilitates the comparison of our financial results to the Company's historical operating results and to other companies in our industry.
  • Stock-based compensation is different from other forms of compensation as it is a non-cash expense. For example, a cash salary generally has a fixed and unvarying cash cost. In contrast, the expense associated with an equity-based award is generally unrelated to the amount of cash ultimately received by the employee, and the cost to the Company is based on a stock-based compensation valuation methodology and underlying assumptions that may vary over time.
  • We exclude certain other costs when evaluating our continuing business performance when such items are not consistently occurring and do not reflect expected future operating expense, nor provide insight into the fundamentals of current or past operations of our business. These include costs related to certain identified initiatives (including technology initiatives) to further streamline the business, improve the Company's efficiency, create synergies, and globalize the Company's operations, all with an objective to improve scale and efficiency and increase profitability going forward. For the six months ended June 30, 2021, other costs additionally include a penalty of $10.3 million incurred on termination of a vendor contract. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, other costs include certain costs incurred in association with COVID-19, including the cost of providing additional health, welfare and technological support to our employees as they work remotely.
  • Debt restructuring and debt issuance cost amortization are unrelated to the continuing operations of the Company. Debt restructuring costs do not reflect expected future operating expense, nor do they provide insight into the fundamentals of current or past operations of our business. In addition, since debt issuance cost amortization is dependent upon the financing method, which can vary widely company to company, we believe that excluding these costs helps to facilitate comparison to historical results as well as to other companies within our industry.
  • The adjustments attributable to non-controlling interests, including adjustments to the redemption value of a non-controlling interest and non-cash adjustments related to the tax receivable agreement, have no significant impact on the ongoing operations of the business.
  • The tax related items are the difference between the Company’s U.S. GAAP tax provision and a pro forma tax provision based upon the Company’s adjusted net income before taxes as well as the impact from certain discrete tax items. The methodology utilized for calculating the Company’s adjusted net income tax provision is the same methodology utilized in calculating the Company’s U.S. GAAP tax provision.
  • The Company does not allocate certain corporate expenses to our operating segments, as these items are centrally controlled and are not directly attributable to any reportable segment.

For the same reasons, WEX believes that adjusted net income, adjusted operating income and total segment adjusted operating income may also be useful to investors when evaluating the Company's performance. However, because adjusted net income, adjusted operating income and total segment adjusted operating income are non-GAAP measures, they should not be considered as a substitute for, or superior to, net income, operating income or cash flows from operating activities as determined in accordance with GAAP. In addition, adjusted net income, adjusted operating income and total segment adjusted operating income as used by WEX may not be comparable to similarly titled measures employed by other companies.

To determine the impact of foreign exchange translation (“FX”) on revenue, revenue from entities whose functional currency is not denominated in U.S. dollars, as well as revenue from purchase volume transacted in non-U.S. denominated currencies, were translated using the weighted average exchange rates for the same period in the prior year, exclusive of revenue derived from 2020 acquisitions for one year following the acquisition dates.

To determine the impact of price per gallon of fuel (“PPG”) on revenue, revenue subject to changes in fuel prices was calculated based on the average retail price of fuel for the same period in the prior year for the portion of our business that earns revenue based on a percentage of fuel spend, exclusive of revenue derived from 2020 acquisitions for one year following the acquisition dates. For the portions of our business that earn revenue based on margin spreads, revenue was calculated utilizing the comparable margin from the prior year.

To determine the estimated earnings impact of FX on revenue and expenses from entities whose functional currency is not denominated in U.S. dollars, as well as revenue and variable expenses from purchase volume transacted in non-U.S. denominated currencies, amounts were translated using the weighted average exchange rates for the same period in the prior year, net of tax, exclusive of revenue and expenses derived from 2020 acquisitions for one year following the acquisition dates.

To determine the estimated earnings impact of PPG, revenue and certain variable expenses impacted by changes in fuel prices were adjusted based on the average retail price of fuel for the same period in the prior year for the portion of our business that earns revenue based on a percentage of fuel spend, net of applicable taxes, exclusive of revenue and expenses derived from 2020 acquisitions for one year following the acquisition dates. For the portions of our business that earn revenue based on margin spreads, revenue was adjusted to the comparable margin from the prior year, net of non-controlling interests and applicable taxes.
