Current report

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased for the three months ended March 31, 2026 when compared to the corresponding period in the prior year due to fluctuations in the United States dollar compared to foreign currencies and an increase in the costs for professional services.

Current report

Beginning January 1, 2026, the remittance tax provisions of the One Big Beautiful Bill Act in the United States became effective. These provisions assess a 1% excise tax on certain remittances sent internationally from the United States that are funded with cash or a similar, physical instrument. In April 2026, the United States Department of Treasury and Internal Revenue Service issued proposed rules that seek to clarify the scope and application of the excise tax, subject to public comment and finalization of the rules. We are currently evaluating the potential impact the proposed rules could have on our business.

Current report

On January 9, 2026, we entered into the Delayed Draw Term Loan Facility, providing for an unsecured term loan facility in an aggregate amount of $800.0 million. We have until July 8, 2026 to draw upon the Delayed Draw Term Loan Facility, which matures on the third anniversary of the initial funding date. We have the option to increase the commitments under the Delayed Draw Term Loan Facility by an amount such that the commitments do not exceed $1.0 billion in the aggregate (after giving effect to any such increases). Any such increases would be subject to obtaining additional commitments from existing or new banks under the Delayed Draw Term Loan Facility. We may use the proceeds from the Delayed Draw Term Loan Facility to finance the cash consideration to purchase the entire share capital of Intermex and repay all of Intermex's outstanding indebtedness under their revolving credit facility.

Current report

On March 9, 2026, we issued $450.0 million of 4.750% unsecured notes due June 15, 2029, payable semi-annually in arrears on June 15 and December 15 of each year, beginning on December 15, 2026 ("2029 Notes"). If a change of control triggering event occurs, holders of the 2029 Notes may require us to repurchase some or all of their notes at a price equal to 101% of the principal amount of their notes, plus any accrued and unpaid interest. We may redeem the 2029 Notes in whole or in part, at any time prior to May 15, 2029, at the greater of par or a price based on the applicable treasury rate plus 20 basis points. We may redeem the 2029 Notes at any time after May 15, 2029, at a price equal to par, plus accrued interest.
Removed paragraphs (6)

Previous report

Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 when compared to the corresponding periods in the prior year due to a decrease in advertising costs. For the nine months ended September 30, 2025 compared to the corresponding period in the prior year, selling, general and administrative expenses also decreased due to a reduction in employee compensation, including incentive compensation, and fluctuations between the United States dollar and foreign currencies. In addition, the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 included expenses associated with our operating expense redeployment program and impairments related to our assets in Russia.

Previous report

On July 4, 2025, the United States government enacted into law the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (the “OBBB”). The OBBB includes a broad range of tax reform provisions affecting businesses, and we are currently evaluating the potential impact the OBBB will have on our results of operations and business.

Previous report

Beginning January 1, 2026, the OBBB will assess a 1% excise tax on certain remittances sent internationally from the United States that are funded with cash or a similar, physical instrument. While we are continuing to evaluate the potential impacts of the OBBB, we believe this remittance tax could make it more expensive for consumers to transfer money in this way and therefore could have a negative impact on NA and Consumer Money Transfer revenues and transactions in subsequent periods.

Previous report

The Tax Act imposed a tax on certain of our previously undistributed foreign earnings. This tax charge, combined with our other 2017 United States taxable income and tax attributes, resulted in a 2017 United States federal tax liability of approximately $800 million. We elected to pay this liability in periodic installments through 2025, and we paid the final installment of approximately $220 million during the second quarter of 2025.

On August 10, 2025, we entered into an agreement to purchase the entire share capital of International Money Express, Inc. (“Intermex”) for approximately $500 million in cash. This transaction is expected to close in mid-2026 subject to Intermex stockholder and customary regulatory approvals. Intermex is a leading omnichannel money transfer provider, focused primarily on the United States to Latin America and the Caribbean corridors, through a network of agent retail locations, Intermex-operated stores, its mobile app, and websites. We believe this acquisition will strengthen Western Union's retail offering in the United States, expand market coverage in high-potential geographies, and accelerate digital new customer acquisition.

Previous wording

Due to the significance of the effect that foreign exchange fluctuations against the United States dollar can have on our reported revenues, constant currency results have been provided in the table below for consolidated revenues. Constant currency revenues translate revenues denominated in foreign currencies to the United States dollar, net of the effect of foreign currency hedges, at rates consistent with those in the prior year. Constant currency results were also net of the impact of Argentina inflation while its economy was hyperinflationary. Beginning in the second quarter of 2025, we no longer exclude the effect of Argentina hyperinflation, in light of significantly moderating inflation in the Argentine economy. Constant currency measures are non-GAAP financial measures and are provided so that revenue can be viewed without the effect of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, net of the hyperinflationary Argentine economy, which is consistent with how management evaluates our revenue results and trends. We believe that these measures provide management and investors with information about revenue results and trends that eliminates currency volatility, thereby providing greater clarity regarding, and increasing the comparability of, our underlying results and trends. These disclosures are provided in addition to, and not as a substitute for, the percentage change in revenue on a GAAP basis for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 compared to the corresponding periods in the prior year. Other companies may calculate and define similarly labeled items differently, which may limit the usefulness of this measure for comparative purposes.

Current wording

The following table sets forth our consolidated revenue results for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025:

Previous wording

Fluctuations in the United States dollar compared to foreign currencies, net of the impact of foreign currency hedges and Argentina hyperinflation, resulted in an increase to revenues of $15.1 million and $33.5 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively, when compared to the corresponding periods in the prior year. Beginning in the second quarter of 2025, we are no longer adjusting for the estimated impact of Argentina hyperinflation as inflation had moderated from over 200% at times over the past few years to less than 50% in the second quarter and has remained at that level since. For the first quarter of 2025, we calculated Argentina hyperinflation as the revenue growth not attributable to either transaction growth or the change in price (revenue divided by principal).

Current wording

Fluctuations in the United States dollar compared to foreign currencies, net of the impact of foreign currency hedges, resulted in an increase to revenues of $12.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, when compared to the corresponding period in the prior year.

Previous wording

In addition to the impacts from foreign currency, net of Argentina hyperinflation, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 when compared to the corresponding periods in the prior year, GAAP and Adjusted revenues decreased due to a reduction in transactions originating from Iraq, which negatively impacted revenues by 1% and 3%, respectively. For both the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, we continued to experience decreases in transactions and revenues in the North America and Latin America and the Caribbean regions of our Consumer Money Transfer segment, as further discussed below.

Current wording

For the three months ended March 31, 2026, revenues and adjusted revenues were primarily impacted by a decrease in transactions and revenues in the North America and Latin America and the Caribbean regions of our Consumer Money Transfer segment, partially offset by revenue growth in our Consumer Services segment, as further discussed below.

Previous wording

Cost of services primarily consists of agent commissions, which represented nearly 60% of total cost of services for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, cost of services decreased compared to the corresponding periods in the prior year primarily due to decreases in agent commissions and technology expenses, partially offset by increased expenses associated with our expansion of Company-owned locations. In addition, the decrease in cost of services for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 compared to the corresponding period in the prior year was partially offset by higher consumer fraud losses, and the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 included expenses associated with our operating expense redeployment program.

Current wording

Cost of services primarily consists of agent commissions, which represented approximately 55% of total cost of services for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025. For the three months ended March 31, 2026, cost of services increased compared to the corresponding period in the prior year primarily due to an increase in employee-related and other expenses associated with our Eurochange Limited (“Eurochange”) acquisition and other immaterial acquisitions that expanded our Company-operated locations, in addition to increases in direct transactional expenses including credit losses, agent commissions, and bank fees.

Previous wording

Total other expense, net increased for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, when compared to the corresponding periods in the prior year, primarily due to an increase in interest expense associated with our term loan facility borrowings.

Current wording

Total other expense, net increased for the three months ended March 31, 2026, when compared to the corresponding period in the prior year, primarily due to an increase in interest expense associated with our commercial paper borrowings.

Previous wording

Our effective tax rates on pre-tax income were 16.7% and (95.2)% for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and 18.8% and (16.5)% for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 compared to the corresponding periods in the prior year, the change in the effective tax rate was primarily due to a settlement of the IRS examination of our 2017 and 2018 federal income tax returns in the three months ended September 30, 2024, partially offset by the reorganization of our international operations, which took place during the year ended December 31, 2024, and discrete items.

Current wording

Our effective tax rates on pre-tax income were 28.1% and 16.1% for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. For the three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to the corresponding period in the prior year, the effective tax rate increased primarily due to discrete expenses in the current period related to the reorganization of our international operations, compared to discrete benefits in the prior period.

Previous wording

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, both basic and diluted earnings per share were $0.43 and $1.17, respectively. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, both basic and diluted earnings per share were $0.78 and $1.61, respectively. Outstanding options to purchase Western Union stock and unvested shares of restricted stock are excluded from basic shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if outstanding stock options at the presented dates are exercised and shares of restricted stock have vested. Shares excluded from the diluted earnings per share calculation were 17.1 million and 11.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and 16.1 million and 11.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The effect of these shares was anti-dilutive under the treasury stock method, as the assumed proceeds of the options and restricted stock per unit were above our average share price during the periods.

Current wording

During the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, basic earnings per share were $0.21 and $0.37, respectively, and diluted earnings per share were $0.20 and $0.36, respectively. Outstanding options to purchase Western Union stock and unvested shares of restricted stock are excluded from basic shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if outstanding stock options at the presented dates are exercised and shares of restricted stock have vested. Shares excluded from the diluted earnings per share calculation were 16.0 million and 14.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. The effect of these shares was anti-dilutive under the treasury stock method, as the assumed proceeds of the options and restricted stock per unit were above our average share price during the periods.

Previous wording

Earnings per share for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 compared to the corresponding periods in the prior year were impacted by the previously described factors impacting net income, partially offset by a lower number of average shares outstanding.

Current wording

Previous wording

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, we incurred expenses that are not included in the measurement of segment operating income provided to the Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) for purposes of performance assessment and resource allocation. These expenses are therefore excluded from our segment operating income results. Refer to Part I, Item 1, Financial Statements, Note 14, Segments for further discussion.

Our Consumer Money Transfer service facilitates money transfers sent from our retail agent locations worldwide and money transfer transactions marketed under our brands and initiated through our or our third-party digital partners’ websites and mobile applications (“Branded Digital”). We exclude transactions and revenues generated from Iraq websites and mobile applications from the definition of Branded Digital, given the significant volatility in that business and our challenges in offering services in the country. The segment includes five geographic regions whose functions are primarily related to generating, managing, and maintaining agent relationships and localized marketing activities. We include Branded Digital transactions in our regions. By means of common processes and systems, these regions, including Branded Digital transactions, create one interconnected global network for consumer transactions, thereby constituting one Consumer Money Transfer money transfer business and one operating segment.

Previous wording

Adjusted revenue growth assumes that revenues denominated in foreign currencies are translated to the United States dollar, net of the effect of foreign currency hedges, at rates consistent with those in the corresponding prior periods. LACA, total Consumer Money Transfer, and Branded Digital adjusted revenue growth also historically excluded the effect of increases in local currency revenue due to hyperinflation in Argentina. Beginning in the second quarter of 2025, we are no longer adjusting for the estimated impact of Argentina hyperinflation as inflation had moderated from over 200% at times over the past few years to less than 50% in the second quarter and has remained at that level since. For the first quarter of 2025, we calculated Argentina hyperinflation as the revenue growth not attributable to either transaction growth or the change in price (revenue divided by principal).

Our consumers transferred $27.2 billion and $25.9 billion in cross-border principal for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and $79.7 billion and $76.4 billion in cross-border principal for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Consumer Money Transfer cross-border principal is the amount of consumer funds transferred to a designated recipient in a country or territory that differs from the country or territory from which the transaction was initiated. Consumer Money Transfer cross-border principal is a metric used by management to monitor and better understand the growth in our underlying business relative to competitors, as well as changes in our market share of global remittances.

Previous wording

Consumer Money Transfer revenue decreased 6% and 8%, and transactions decreased 3% and 1% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively, compared to the corresponding periods in the prior year. Fluctuations in the United States dollar compared to foreign currencies, net of the impact of foreign currency hedges and Argentina hyperinflation in the first quarter of 2025, positively impacted revenue by 1% for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and had no impact to revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to the corresponding periods in the prior year.

Current wording

Consumer Money Transfer revenue decreased 3% and transactions remained flat for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to the corresponding period in the prior year.

Previous wording

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, in our Consumer Money Transfer regions, NA revenue and transactions decreased, compared to the corresponding periods in the prior year. The region was impacted by declines in transactions sent from the United States to Mexico and within the United States, as well as broader geopolitical and macroeconomic conditions, evolving migration patterns across the Americas, a reduction in active agent locations, and price reductions. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, our EU & CIS revenues increased due to growth in Spain and the U.K. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, declines in MEASA revenues compared to the prior period were primarily driven by a reduction in transactions originating from Iraq due to changes in monetary policy and related central bank actions, as discussed above, as well as revenue declines in Saudi Arabia. The revenue decline in LACA was primarily driven by decreases in Ecuador, Mexico, and Brazil and was impacted by evolving migration patterns across the Americas.

Previous wording

Fluctuations in the United States dollar compared to foreign currencies, net of the impact of foreign currency hedges and Argentina hyperinflation, resulted in a decrease to Consumer Services revenues of $0.4 million and an increase of $23.6 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively, when compared to the corresponding periods in the prior year. Beginning in the second quarter of 2025, we are no longer adjusting for the estimated impact of Argentina hyperinflation as inflation had moderated from over 200% at times over the past few years to less than 50% in the second quarter and has remained at that level since. For the first quarter of 2025, we calculated Argentina hyperinflation as the revenue growth not attributable to either transaction growth or the change in price (revenue divided by principal).

Previous wording

Our primary source of liquidity has been cash generated from our operating activities, primarily from net income and fluctuations in working capital. Our working capital is affected by the timing of payments for employee and agent incentives, interest payments on our outstanding borrowings, and timing of income tax payments, among other items. Many of our annual employee incentive compensation and agent incentive payments are made in the first quarter following the year they were incurred. The majority of our interest payments are due in the second and fourth quarters, which results in a decrease in the amount of cash provided by operating activities in those quarters and a corresponding increase to the first and third quarters. The annual payments resulting from the United States tax reform legislation enacted in 2017 (the “Tax Act”) include amounts related to the United States taxation of certain previously undistributed earnings of foreign subsidiaries. The final payment of approximately $220 million was made during the second quarter of 2025.
