Capital Allocation Strategy and Share Repurchases
Current report
On May 5, 2026, we announced our intention to initiate an accelerated share repurchase (ASR) program of up to $50.0 million under our existing Repurchase Program. We believe this intended action reflects our conviction in the intrinsic value of our business and our ability to generate consistent operating cash flows. We expect to fund the ASR with available cash on hand while maintaining sufficient liquidity to support our ongoing growth investment philosophy, which includes preserving financial flexibility to support continued investments in organic growth and strategic acquisitions.
Current report
In addition, we are expanding our payment processing capabilities to offer a more comprehensive solution to our clients. While this new capability is expected to be a source of future growth, it is characterized by a lower gross margin profile compared to our traditional, higher-margin products. We anticipate that the inclusion of this business mix will exert a moderate, downward pressure during the initial ramp-up phase on our overall consolidated gross profit margin percentage, even as it continues to contribute positively to our absolute gross profit dollars.

Digital Transformation and Operational Focus
Current report
We are actively engaged in a comprehensive, company-wide operational and systems transformation program. This initiative encompasses a re-architecting of our data infrastructure, consolidation and upgrade of our enterprise and billing systems, underlying operating models, alongside the strategic alignment of our organizational structure, talent, and internal processes. The primary objectives of this program are to enhance our analytical capabilities, establish a centralized, structured data foundation to support our workforce, and facilitate the ongoing and future integration of artificial intelligence and automation into our workflows and product development. Ultimately, this foundational work is intended to position the Company for continued scalability and long-term growth. As we execute on this transformation, we expect the program to have a broad impact on our enterprise operations, driving long-term efficiencies and evolving our organizational structures and workflows.
Current report
Furthermore, we are optimizing internal systems and tools by consolidating our vendor footprint and automating processes. These efforts collectively reinforce our commitment to driving productivity, optimizing investments, and streamlining operations, thereby enhancing our platform's overall capabilities and providing deeper insights for our stakeholders.
Current report
The Australian government reclassified India as a highest-risk (Evidence Level 3) student-visa assessment jurisdiction under its Simplified Student Visa Framework (SSVF), shifting India from Evidence Level 2 to the more stringent Evidence Level 3 category effective January 8, 2026. This reclassification was attributed to what the Department of Home Affairs described as “emerging integrity risks,” including concerns about non-genuine applications and fraudulent documentation within the student visa system. Indian student visa applicants are now required to submit more extensive documentation, including detailed financial evidence, authenticated academic records, proof of English language proficiency, and may be subject to additional background checks or interviews before a visa decision can be finalized. Some expected impacts to Australian universities include:
Current report
Expectation of longer student visa processing times, potentially extending from current medians to four–eight or more weeks, which could disrupt admissions and orientation schedules.
Current report
Increased administrative burden on international offices and recruitment staff to assist Indian applicants with enhanced documentation and compliance requirements.
Current report
Risk of a reduction in Indian student enrollments or delays in arrival, affecting tuition revenue and program planning.
Current report
Necessity for universities to adjust intake planning, including staggered start dates or expanded online coursework, to accommodate delayed visa issuance.
Current report
Potential for higher refusal rates requiring additional counseling and risk management for affected applicants.
Current report
Flywire could experience reduced transaction volumes and delayed payment flows from its Australian clients’ Indian student corridors due to slower visa processing times, increased application friction, and potential declines in enrollment. These factors could adversely affect our revenue growth in the Asia-Pacific education vertical and increase operational complexity associated with refunds, deferred intakes, and compliance-related payment adjustments.
Current report
In the U.K. as well, there have recently been significant modifications to the process and standards for issuance of international student visas which may reduce demand for international study and adversely affect our business. In November 2025, the U.K. budget confirmed that a levy of £925 per student per year of study will commence from August 2028, at the start of the 2028/29 academic year, for higher education institutions in England. All providers will be given an allowance of the first 220 international students per year not paying the levy, which may protect smaller, specialist providers from paying the charge. Of potentially more significance is the reduction of the U.K.’s Graduate Route post-study-work-visa from 24 to 18 months as taking effect for visa applications made after January 1, 2027. The change applies to bachelor’s and master’s degrees, and not to PhDs (which retain a 3-year option). All of these changes in UK visa policies for international students could potentially discourage international students from studying in the U.K. and have an adverse impact on our business.

On May 5, 2026, we announced our intention to initiate an accelerated share repurchase (ASR) program of up to $50.0 million under the Repurchase Program. We anticipate funding the ASR program using our existing cash and cash equivalents. The ultimate amount and timing of the repurchases will be informed by the execution of a definitive ASR agreement, prevailing market conditions, and the trading price of our common stock. This anticipated ASR aligns with our broader capital allocation priorities, which include preserving financial flexibility to support continued investments in organic growth and strategic acquisitions.

While we have experienced significant growth and increased demand for our solutions over recent periods, we may continue to incur losses in the short term and may not be able to achieve or maintain profitability in the future. Our marketing is focused on generating leads to develop our sales pipeline, building our brand and market awareness, scaling our network of partners and growing our business from our existing client base. We believe that these efforts will result in an increase in our client base, revenues, and improved margins in the long term. To manage any future growth effectively, we must continue to improve and expand our IT and financial infrastructure, our operating and administrative systems and controls, and our ability to manage headcount, capital, and processes in an efficient manner. Additionally, we face intense competition in our markets, and to succeed, we need to innovate and offer solutions that are differentiated from legacy payment solutions. We must also effectively hire, retain, train, and motivate qualified personnel and senior management. There are also circumstances beyond our control which can materially impact our business that we need to respond to, including, but not limited to fluctuations in exchange rates. If we are unable to successfully address these challenges, our business, operating results, and prospects could be adversely affected.

Our revenue is affected by several factors, including the amount of payment volume processed by us on behalf of our clients, the industry in which our clients operate, the currency in which payments are made and received, the method of payment and the number of payment plans initiated by our clients’ customers. For example, we recognize more transaction revenue as our clients engage in cross border payment flows compared to domestic payments, which may increase or decrease depending on the industry in which our clients operate. In addition, the mix of payment methods utilized by our clients’ customers may have an impact on our margins given that our costs associated with certain payment methods, such as credit cards, are higher than other payment methods accepted by our solutions, such as bank transfers. During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, our business mix continued to exert downward pressure on our margins, driven by growing share of domestic transactions and credit card usage in travel and B2B, partially offset by ongoing optimization of payment costs. We may experience shifts in the type of revenue we earn (transaction revenue or platform and other revenues) depending on the nature of the activity of our clients and our clients’ customers on our platform.

Our operating results and operating metrics are subject to seasonality and volatility, which could result in fluctuations in our quarterly revenues and operating results or in perceptions of our business prospects. We have experienced in the past, and expect to continue to experience, seasonal fluctuations in our revenue, which can vary by geographic corridor and vertical. For instance, our revenue has historically been largest in the third quarter driven by our education peak season. Some variability results from seasonal events including the timing of when our education clients’ customers make their tuition payments on our payment platform and the number of business days in a month or quarter. For example, due to the overlap of China’s National Day and Mid-Autumn Festival in early October 2025, certain payments from our client’s Chinese customers that would typically be settled in the fourth quarter were accelerated into the third quarter prior to the start of the holidays. As a result, revenue that would ordinarily be recognized in the fourth quarter was instead recognized in the third quarter, distorting period-over-period comparisons and contributing to elevated third-quarter results. Management does not expect this temporary shift in payment timing to have a material effect on overall annual results, but it may impact comparisons between affected quarters. We also experience volatility in certain other metrics, such as transactions processed, total payment volume and payment mix.

Revenue from our education clients, which primarily includes clients in the United States, Canada, U.K., Europe, and Asia Pacific/Australia, is affected by several factors, including policies enacted by government organizations around the world that cap the issuance of international student visas. In January 2024, the Canadian government announced what at the time appeared to be a temporary intake cap on international student permit applications to stabilize new growth for a period of two years. This cap – intended to address Canada’s housing shortage, overburdened health systems, and rising costs of living – has reportedly reduced the number of international students coming to Canada by about 40% since implementation. Building on these changes, the Immigration, Refugees, and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) announced in January 2025 that new study permits for international students will be reduced by 10% from the 2024 target of 485,000 to 437,000 in 2025 and 2026. When first instituted by the IRCC, the cap initially excluded students enrolled in master’s and PhD programs, but the IRCC more recently included master’s and doctoral students within the cap. Additionally, in November 2024, Canada ended its Student Direct Stream (SDS) program for expedited international student visa processing, and international students applying to study in Canada no longer need to prepay tuition to apply for a study permit. These limitations have resulted in a corresponding reduction in payment flows, which had an adverse effect on our business in the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and which we anticipate will continue to impact our Canada revenues and revenue growth in 2025.

Similarly, since late 2023, the Australian government has taken similar actions to tighten international student visa rules, including an increase in the amount of minimum savings that international students would need to have in order to obtain a visa, raising the standards of the English language proficiency requirements for student and graduate visas, a 125% increase in the visa fee for international students, and the imposition of a ban for holders of visitor visas and students holding temporary graduate visas from applying for a student visa while in Australia. In August 2024, the Australian government announced the setting of a national planning level to apply from January 1, 2025 and which is intended to limit the number of new overseas student places available in Australia – including a ceiling of 270,000 international students for calendar year 2025. However, in December 2024, the government announced a change of course, instead implementing a system to introduce two categories of student visa processing: “high priority” and “standard priority”, with all international education providers to receive high priority processing up to 80% of their indicative international student cap. After reaching 80%, the providers will receive standard priority processing. In August 2025, the Australian government announced the setting of a national planning level to apply a ceiling of 295,000 international students for 2026. These new Australian government policies, including university quotas, slower visa processing, higher fees, and stricter financial and language requirements, has had an adverse impact on our business in the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and we anticipate will continue to impact our Australian revenues in 2025.

Other governments where our client institutions are located, including in the U.S., may introduce measures from time to time to manage the growth of the international student population in their respective countries, which may have adverse effects on our business. For example, the U.S. government’s recent announcement to impose a $100,000 filing fee per new H-1B visa could adversely impact demand for international students to attend our client institutions in the U.S. Our U.S. market saw slower growth in the nine months ended September 30, 2025 due to shifting visa trends. In addition, in 2025 U.S. policy shifts have prompted dramatic action to rescind student visas (including deportation of students), plan additional cutbacks to the volume of international student visa issuances and more closely scrutinize applications for international student visas, and to cut government support for higher education, adding to uncertainty around the number of students coming to the U.S. to study in the near future. Delays in issuances of visas or visa denials – which could be exacerbated by the recent U.S. government shutdown – may discourage prospective international students from choosing U.S. institutions as places for study. Recent proposals in Congress to tighten visa stay rules and to implement the “OPT Fair Tax Act” could further dampen demand among international students to study in the U.S. The existing rules and any introduction of new rules further limiting the attractiveness of international study by the governments of countries where our client institutions are located has and is expected in the near term to continue to adversely impact the growth of our business in the applicable regions. We expect these changes to U.S. immigration policy and heightened trade tensions from the threat or imposition of tariffs will continue to dampen demands for international study and adversely impact our revenue growth in the U.S. in 2025.

The expanded social media screening process to be applied by the DOS to student visa applicants establishes that, of those students seeking expedited appointments, priority should be given to those attending universities with lower international enrollment (15% or less). This change potentially disadvantages those seeking to study at more internationally diverse institutions and marks a significant departure from previous DOS guidance that prioritized students based on the start of their academic studies. Administrative processing issues, a new requirement that applicants provide DOS access to social media accounts, and the resource-intensive nature of the new screening requirements is expected to create longer wait times and processing delays. All of these factors – and other related uncertainties that will surface as the new standards are implemented – can contribute to a decline in international enrollment in U.S. academic institutions, which could adversely affect our business.

In the U.S., the recently enacted “One Big Beautiful Bill” contains a number of provisions with the potential to significantly change the landscape for financing undergraduate and graduate study and which could adversely affect the demand for higher education in the U.S. The One Big Beautiful Bill limits Pell Grant awards (which provide gift aid to low-income students), eliminates the Grad PLUS program, and sets new limits for graduate and professional students for Direct Unsubsidized Loans. The new bill also caps parent loans to finance undergraduate education, and changes student loan repayment options, among other modifications. Although most of these changes will not go into effect until July 1, 2026, so U.S. students entering or returning to college in the fall of 2025 were unaffected, the longer-term impacts of the bill may impact U.S. student enrollment in undergraduate and postgraduate programs and could materially and adversely affect our revenue and results of operations.

We have a history of operating losses and while we have experienced significant revenue growth in recent years and achieved profitability on a GAAP basis in the year ended December 31, 2024, we are not certain whether or when we will obtain a high enough volume of revenue to sustain or increase our growth or achieve or maintain profitability in the future. We also expect our costs and expenses to increase in future periods, which could negatively affect our future operating results if our revenue does not increase. In particular, we intend to continue to strategically invest in headcount and technologies and systems to improve operating efficiencies, to further develop and enhance our solutions, including introducing new functionality, and to expand our marketing programs and sales teams to drive new client adoption, expand strategic partner integrations, and support international and industry expansion. Our operating results are also impacted by the mix of our revenue generated from our different revenue sources, which include transaction revenue and platform and other fee revenue. Changes in our revenue mix from quarter to quarter, including those derived from cross-border or domestic currency transactions, will impact our margins, and we may not be able to grow our gross margin adequately to achieve or sustain profitability. In addition, the mix of payment methods utilized by our clients’ customers may have an impact on our margins given that our costs associated with certain payment methods, such as credit cards, are higher than other payment methods accepted by our solutions, such as bank transfers. We are addressing operating losses by making continued improvements designed to create operating efficiencies and a focus on cost discipline, including investing in automation and product development to further enhance our offerings with a focus on scale and productivity across all areas. Beginning in the first quarter of 2025 and continuing into the second quarter of 2025, we implemented a restructuring plan designed to improve operational efficiencies, reduce operating costs and better align the Company’s workforce with current business needs, top strategic priorities and key growth opportunities. We believe these improvements, our strong product portfolio, client retention and established product market fit along with strong gross margins and cash flows from operations will help us achieve our goal of maintaining positive annual GAAP net income in the future. While we expect that our clients’ business and our business will continue to be adversely impacted, directly or indirectly, by the ongoing macroeconomic and geopolitical issues, as of the date of this report. However, the extent of the ongoing impact of these macroeconomic events on our and our clients’ business, our markets and on global economic activity however, is uncertain and the related financial impact cannot be reasonably estimated with any certainty at this time.
Current wording
We have a history of operating losses and while we have experienced significant revenue growth in recent years and achieved profitability on a GAAP basis for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2025 and the three months ended March 31, 2026, we are not certain whether or when we will obtain a high enough volume of revenue to sustain or increase our growth or achieve or maintain profitability in the future. We also expect our costs and expenses to increase in future periods, which could negatively affect our future operating results if our revenue does not increase. In particular, we intend to continue to strategically invest in headcount and technologies and systems to improve operating efficiencies, to further develop and enhance our solutions, including introducing new functionality, and to expand our marketing programs and sales teams to drive new client adoption, expand strategic partner integrations, and support international and industry expansion. Our operating results are also impacted by the mix of our revenue generated from our different revenue sources, which include transaction revenue and platform and other fee revenue. Changes in our revenue mix from quarter to quarter, including those derived from cross-border or domestic currency transactions, will impact our margins, and we may not be able to grow our gross margin adequately to achieve or sustain profitability. In addition, the mix of payment methods utilized by our clients’ customers may have an impact on our margins given that our costs associated with certain payment methods, such as credit cards, are higher than other payment methods accepted by our solutions, such as bank transfers. In addition, we are expanding our payment processing capabilities to offer a more comprehensive solution to our clients. While this new capability is expected to be a source of future growth, it is characterized by a lower gross margin profile. We are addressing operating losses by making continued improvements designed to create operating efficiencies and a focus on cost discipline, including investing in automation and product development to further enhance our offerings with a focus on scale and productivity across all areas. Beginning in the first quarter of 2025 and continuing into the second quarter of 2025, we implemented a restructuring plan designed to improve operational efficiencies, reduce operating costs and better align our workforce with current business needs, top strategic priorities and key growth opportunities. We believe these improvements, our strong product portfolio, client retention and established product market fit along with strong gross margins and cash flows from operations will help us achieve our goal of maintaining positive annual GAAP net income in the future.

Our transaction payment volume outpaced our revenue growth during the three months ended September 30, 2025, primarily due to the increase in domestic transactions that have a lower average monetization rate. We experienced growth in transaction payment volume across most regions and verticals during the period, excluding Canada, which decreased primarily due to Canada’s international student permit applications cap introduced earlier in 2024. Transaction payment volume increased approximately 30.9% during the three months ended September 30, 2025 to $11.5 billion compared to $8.8 billion during the three months ended September 30, 2024.

This variance was primarily impacted by the increase in income from operations reflecting the growth in transaction payment volumes, from both our existing clients and new clients, net of the increase in payment processing costs, and gains in foreign currency remeasurement of foreign currency.
