Accounting Pronouncements

The FASB issued guidance, ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures, which requires a public entity to disclose significant segment expenses and other segment items on an annual and interim basis and provide in interim periods all disclosures about a reportable segment’s profit or loss and assets that are currently required annually. Additionally, it requires a public entity to disclose the title and position of the Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM). The guidance does not change how a public entity identifies its operating segments, aggregates them, or applies the quantitative thresholds to determine its reportable segments. Also, it clarifies that entities with a single reportable segment must apply this guidance in its entirety. The new standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. The amendments in this ASU should be applied retrospectively to all prior periods presented in the financial statements. The Company is currently evaluating the impact this guidance will have on the condensed consolidated financial statements.

The FASB issued guidance, ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which focuses on the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid. This guidance requires a public entity to disclose, on an annual basis, a tabular rate reconciliation using both percentages and currency amounts, broken out into specified categories with certain reconciling items further broken out by nature and jurisdiction to the extent those items exceed a specified threshold. In addition, all entities are required to disclose income taxes paid, net of refunds received disaggregated by federal, state/local, and foreign and by jurisdiction if the amount is at least 5% of total income tax payments, net of refunds received. For the Company, the new standard is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. An entity may apply the amendments in this guidance prospectively by providing the revised disclosures for the period ending December 31, 2025 and continuing to provide the previously required disclosures for the prior periods, or may apply the amendments retrospectively by providing the revised disclosures for all period presented. The Company is currently evaluating the impact this guidance will have on the condensed consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 2 –ACQUISITIONS

LAN Holdings, Corp.

On April 5, 2023, the Company completed the acquisition of 100% of the voting interest of LAN Holdings, Corp. ("LAN Holdings"). LAN Holdings provides the Company the opportunity to enter into markets in which it did not have a presence previously, such as the ability to provide outbound remittance services from Spain, Italy, and Germany.

The total consideration transferred by the Company in connection with the LAN Acquisition was $13.4 million, which included $10.3 million in cash, subject to customary purchase price adjustments. The Company will also pay an additional $0.6 million in cash as a result of LAN Holdings’ achievement of certain operational milestones during 2023, which the parties have agreed have been achieved. Prior to the acquisition, the Company maintained a receivable balance of approximately $2.5 million related to money transfers paid by the Company on behalf of LAN Holdings. Upon the closing of the LAN Acquisition, the receivable balance was effectively settled and, therefore, included in the determination of the total consideration transferred. The LAN Acquisition was funded with cash on hand.

The following table summarizes the fair values of consideration transferred and identifiable net assets acquired in the LAN Acquisition on April 5, 2023, the measurement period adjustments through the period ended June 30, 2024 and the fair values of consideration transferred and identifiable net assets acquired as of June 30, 2024.

Restructuring costs

During the second quarter of 2024, the Company recorded restructuring costs primarily related to certain of its foreign operations and La Nacional. These restructuring costs are part of the Company's plan, for which the objectives are to reorganize the workforce, streamline operational processes, integrate technology functionality, as well as to develop efficiencies within the Company.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company incurred approximately $2.5 million in expenses for a reduction of workforce in certain locations, closing of certain facilities, discontinuing technology and disposal of obsolete assets. These expenses include approximately $1.7 million in severance payments and related benefits, $0.4 million in software and software development costs

Index

write-offs and $0.4 million in legal and professional fees, which are included in restructuring costs in the condensed consolidated statement of income and comprehensive income.

The Company has paid out $0.7 million of the above charges during the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and has a liability of $1.4 million recorded in accrued and other liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2024.

Other Acquisitions

On July 2, 2024, the Company completed the acquisition of 100% of the issued and outstanding stock of a money services entity incorporated in the United Kingdom. This acquisition provides the Company the opportunity to enter into a market in which it did not have a presence previously, such as the ability to provide outbound remittances from the United Kingdom.

The consideration paid by the Company in connection with the acquisition was approximately $1.4 million in cash, subject to customary purchase price adjustments. As of the date of these condensed consolidated financial statements, due to the recent closing of the acquisition, the initial accounting for this transaction is incomplete, including a preliminary allocation of the consideration transferred to the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed. In addition, due to the timing of the acquisition, the potential income tax consequences of this transaction have not been fully determined.

NOTE 3 –REVENUES

The Company recognized revenues from contracts with customers, sending agents and others for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, as follows (in thousands):

There areno significant initial costs incurred to obtain contracts with customers, although the Company has a loyalty program under which customers earnone point for each wire transfer completed. Points can be redeemed for a discounted wire transaction fee or a foreign exchange rate that is more favorable to the customer. The customer benefits vary by country, and the earned points expire if the customer has not initiated and completed an eligible wire transfer transaction within the immediately preceding 180-day period. In addition, earned points will expire 30 days after the end of the program. Because the loyalty program benefits represent a future performance obligation, a portion of the initial consideration is recorded as deferred revenue loyalty program (see Note 9) and a corresponding loyalty program entry is recorded as contra revenue. Revenue from this performance obligation is recognized upon customers redeeming points or upon expiration of any points outstanding.

Except for the loyalty program discussed above, our revenues include onlyone performance obligation, which is to collect the consumer’s money and make funds available for payment, generally on the same day, to a designated recipient in the currency requested.

The Company also offers several other services, including money orders, and check cashing through its sending agents and corporate-operated stores, for which revenue is derived from a fee per transaction. For substantially all of the Company’s revenues, the Company acts as principal in the transactions and reports revenue on a gross basis, because the Company controls the service at all times prior to transfer to the customer, is primarily responsible for fulfilling the customer contracts, has the risk of loss and has the ability to establish transaction prices.

Wire transfers and money order fees include money order fees of $0.6 million and $0.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and $1.1 million for both the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

Prior to 2022, local banking regulators in Mexico resolved to close and liquidate a local financial institution, citing a lack of compliance with minimum capital requirements. The Company has approximately $6.0 million of exposure from deposits it held with this bank when it was closed. In accordance with the banking regulations in Mexico, large depositors such as the Company will be paid once the assets of the financial institution are liquidated. Currently, it is difficult to predict the length of the liquidation process or if the proceeds from the asset liquidation will be sufficient to recover any of the Company's funds on deposit. The Company maintains a valuation allowance of approximately $4.3 million in connection with the balance of deposits held by the financial institution as a result of its closure.

NOTE 6 –GOODWILL AND INTANGIBLE ASSETS

Goodwill and the majority of intangible assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheets of the Company were recognized from business acquisitions. Intangible assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheets of the Company consist of agent relationships, trade names, developed technology and other intangible assets. Agent relationships, trade names and developed technology are amortized over their estimated useful lives of up to 15 years using an accelerated method that correlates with the projected realization of the benefit. The agent relationships intangible represents the network of independent sending agents; trade names refers to the Intermex, La Nacional and I-Transfer names, branded on all applicable agent locations and well recognized in the market; and developed technology includes the state-of-the-art system that the Company has continued to develop and improve over the past 20 years. Other intangible assets relate to the acquisition of Company-operated stores, which are amortized on a straight line basis over 10 years, and non-competition agreements, which are amortized over the length of the agreement, typically 5 years. The determination of our intangible fair values includes several

Index

assumptions that are subject to various risks and uncertainties. Management believes it has made reasonable estimates and judgments concerning these risks and uncertainties, andno impairment charges were determined necessary to be recognized during the three and six months ended June 30, 2024.

The following table presents the changes in goodwill and intangible assets (in thousands):

Amortization expense related to intangible assets for the remainder of 2024 and thereafter is as follows (in thousands):

NOTE 7 –LEASES

To conduct certain of our operations, the Company is a party to leases for office space, warehouses and Company-operated store locations. In December 2022, the Company entered into a lease agreement, which expires in 2033, for its new headquarters to accommodate its growing workforce. The new lease agreement provides for the Company to receive a tenant allowance amounting to approximately $3.8 million through the construction period, out of which $3.6 million has been disbursed through June 30, 2024. Also, the Company will commence making monthly lease payments on November 1, 2024. Such tenant allowance has been recorded within prepaid expenses and other current assets in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

The presentation of right-of-use assets and lease liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheets is as follows (in thousands):

(1) Operating right-of-use assets are recorded net of accumulated amortization of $11.7 million and $10.0 million as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively.

The Company used its incremental borrowing rate for all leases, as none of the Company’s lease agreements provide a readily determinable implicit rate.

Lease Payments

Future minimum lease payments for assets under non-cancelable operating lease agreements with original terms of more than one year are as follows (in thousands):

NOTE 8 –WIRE TRANSFERS AND MONEY ORDERS PAYABLE, NET

Wire transfers and money orders payable, net consisted of the following (in thousands):

Customer voided wires payable consist primarily of wire transfers that were not completed because the recipient did not collect the funds within 30 days and the sender has not claimed the funds and, therefore, are considered unclaimed property. Unclaimed property laws of each state in the United States in which we operate, the District of Columbia, and Puerto Rico require us to track certain information for all of our money remittances and payment instruments and, if the funds underlying such remittances and instruments are unclaimed at the end of an applicable statutory abandonment period, require us to remit the proceeds of the unclaimed property to the appropriate jurisdiction. Applicable statutory abandonment periods range from three toseven years.

The following table shows the changes in the deferred revenue loyalty program liability (in thousands):

NOTE 10 –DEBT

Debt consisted of the following (in thousands):

(1)Current portion of long-term debt is net of debt origination costs of approximately $0.5 million as of both June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively.

The Company and certain of its domestic subsidiaries as borrowers and the other guarantors from time to time party thereto (collectively, the “Loan Parties”) maintain an Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (as amended, the “A&R Credit Agreement”) with a group of banking institutions. The A&R Credit Agreement provides for a $220.0 million revolving credit facility, an $87.5 million term loan facility and an uncommitted incremental facility, which may be utilized for additional revolving or term loans, of up to $70.0 million. The A&R Credit Agreement also provides for the issuance of letters of credit, which would reduce availability under the revolving credit facility. The proceeds of the term loan were used to refinance the existing term loan facility under the Company’s previous credit agreement, and the revolving credit facility is available for working capital, general corporate purposes and to pay fees and expenses in connection with entry into the A&R Credit Agreement. The maturity date of the A&R Credit Agreement is June 24, 2026.

The unamortized portion of debt origination costs totaled approximately $2.3 million and $2.9 million at June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. Amortization of debt origination costs is included as a component of interest expense in the condensed consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income and amounted to approximately $0.3 million for both the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, and $0.6 million and $0.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

At the election of the Company, interest on the term loan facility and revolving loans under the A&R Credit Agreement may be determined by reference to the secured overnight financing rate as administered by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York ("SOFR") plus an index

Index

adjustment of 0.10% and an applicable margin ranging between 2.50% and 3.00% based upon the Company’s consolidated leverage ratio, as calculated pursuant to the terms of the A&R Credit Agreement. Loans (other than Term Loans, as defined in the A&R Credit Agreement), may also bear interest at the Base Rate (as defined in the A&R Credit Agreement), plus an applicable margin ranging between 1.50% and 2.00% based upon the Company’s consolidated leverage ratio, as so calculated. The Company is also required to pay a fee on the unused portion of the revolving credit facility equal to 0.35% per annum.

The effective interest rates for the term loan facility and revolving credit facility were 8.70% and 2.31%, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2024, and 8.03% and 1.85%, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2023.

Interest is payable (x)(i) generally on the last day of each interest period selected for SOFR loans, but in any event, not less frequently than every three months, and (ii) on the last business day of each quarter for base rate loans and (y) at final maturity. The principal amount of the term loan facility under the A&R Credit Agreement must be repaid in consecutive quarterly installments of 5.0% in years 1 and 2,7.5% in year 3, and 10.0% in years 4 and 5, in each case on the last day of each quarter, which commenced in September 2021 with a final balloon payment at maturity. The term loans under the A&R Credit Agreement may be prepaid at any time without premium or penalty. Revolving loans may be borrowed, repaid and reborrowed from time to time in accordance with the terms and conditions of the A&R Credit Agreement. The Company is also required to repay the loans upon receipt of net proceeds from certain casualty events, upon the disposition of certain property and upon incurrence of indebtedness not permitted by the A&R Credit Agreement. In addition, the Company is required to make mandatory prepayments annually from excess cash flow if the Company’s consolidated leverage ratio (as calculated under the A&R Credit Agreement) is greater than or equal to 3.0, and the remainder of any such excess cash flow is contributed to the available amount which may be used for a variety of purposes, including investments and distributions.

The A&R Credit Agreement contains financial covenants that require the Company to maintain a quarterly minimum fixed charge coverage ratio of 1.25:1.00 and a quarterly maximum consolidated leverage ratio of 3.25:1.00 and generally restricts the ability of the Company to make certain restricted payments, including the repurchase of shares of its common stock, provided that the Company may make restricted payments, among others, (i) without limitation so long as the Consolidated Leverage Ratio (as defined in the A&R Credit Agreement), as of the then most recently completed four fiscal quarters of the Company, after giving pro forma effect to such restricted payments, is 2.25:1.00 or less, (ii) that do not exceed, in the aggregate during any fiscal year, the greater of (x) $23.8 million and (y)25.00% of Consolidated EBITDA (as defined in the A&R Credit Agreement) for the then most recently completed four fiscal quarters of the Company and (iii) to repurchase Company common stock from current or former employees in an aggregate amount of up to $10.0 million per calendar year. The A&R Credit Agreement also contains covenants that limit the Company’s and its subsidiaries’ ability to, among other things, grant liens, incur additional indebtedness, make acquisitions or investments, dispose of certain assets, change the nature of their businesses, enter into certain transactions with affiliates or amend the terms of material indebtedness.

The obligations under the A&R Credit Agreement are guaranteed by the Company and certain domestic subsidiaries of the Company and secured by liens on substantially all of the assets of the Loan Parties, subject to certain exclusions and limitations.

NOTE 11 –FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

The Company determines fair value in accordance with the provisions of FASB guidance, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, which defines fair value as an exit price, representing the amount that would be received from the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. As such, fair value is a market-based measurement that should be determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. As a basis for considering such assumptions, a three-level fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value was established. There are three levels of inputs used to measure fair value and for disclosure purposes. Level 1 relates to quoted market prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets. Level 2 relates to observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1. Level 3 relates to unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

The Company’s non-financial assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis include goodwill and intangible assets. The determination of our intangible fair values is based on a discounted cash flows analysis that includes several assumptions and inputs to measure the economic benefit of these assets over their useful lives (Level 3).

The Company's financial assets and liabilities are carried at amortized cost.

The Company’s cash and cash equivalents balances are representative of their fair values as these balances are comprised of deposits available on demand or overnight. The carrying amounts of accounts receivable, agent advances receivable, prepaid wires, accounts payable and wire transfers and money orders payable are representative of their fair values because of the short turnover of these instruments.

The Company’s financial liabilities include its revolving credit facility and term loan facility. The fair value of the term loan facility, which approximates book value, is estimated by discounting the future cash flows using a current market interest rate (Level 3). The estimated

Index

fair value of the revolving credit facility would approximate face value given the payment schedule and interest rate structure, which approximates current market interest rates.

NOTE 12 –SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION

NOTE 13 –EQUITY

On August 18, 2021, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a stock repurchase program that authorizes the Company to purchase up to $40.0 million of outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock and which was increased on March 3, 2023 to an additional $100.0 million of its outstanding shares (the “Repurchase Program”). Under the Repurchase Program, the Company is authorized to repurchase shares from time to time in accordance with applicable laws, both on the open market and in privately negotiated transactions and may include the use of derivative contracts or structured share repurchase agreements. The timing and amount of repurchases depends on several factors, including market and business conditions, the trading price of the Company’s common stock and the nature of other investment opportunities. The Repurchase Program may be limited, suspended or discontinued at any time without prior notice. The Repurchase Program does not have an expiration date. The A&R Credit Agreement, as amended, permits the Company to make restricted payments (including share repurchases, among others), (i) without limitation so long as the Consolidated Leverage Ratio (as defined in the A&R Credit Agreement, as amended), as of the then most recently completed four fiscal quarters of the Company, after giving pro forma effect to such restricted payments, is 2.25:1.00 or less, (ii) that do not exceed, in the aggregate during any fiscal year, the greater of (x) $23.8 million and (y)25.00% of Consolidated EBITDA (as defined in the A&R Credit Agreement) for the then most recently completed four fiscal quarters of the Company and (iii) to repurchase Company common stock from current or former employees in an aggregate amount of up to $10.0 million per calendar year.

The Company accounts for purchases of treasury stock under the cost method. Any direct costs incurred to acquire treasury stock are considered stock issue costs and added to the cost of the treasury stock. Separately from the Repurchase Program, on March 11, 2024 the Company entered into an agreement with Robert W. Lisy, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, President and Chairman of the Board of Directors, for the purchase of 175,000 shares of the Company's common stock for a total purchase price of $3.3 million, in a privately-negotiated transaction. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, including the shares previously mentioned, the Company purchased 521,651 shares and 1,646,127 shares, respectively, for an aggregate purchase price of $11.2 million and $34.6 million, respectively. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company purchased 916,122 shares and 1,232,581 shares for an aggregate purchase price of $22.9 million and $30.5 million, respectively. As of June 30, 2024, there was $39.4 million available for future share repurchases under the Repurchase Program.

NOTE 14 –EARNINGS PER SHARE

Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing net income for the period by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period. In computing dilutive earnings per share, basic earnings per share is adjusted for the assumed issuance of all applicable potentially dilutive share-based awards, including common stock options, RSUs, RSAs and PSUs. Shares of treasury stock are not considered outstanding and therefore are excluded from the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding calculation.

Below are basic and diluted earnings per share for the periods indicated (in thousands, except for share data):

Index

As of June 30, 2024, there were approximately 213.3 thousand RSUs and 113.0 thousand RSAs excluded from the diluted earnings per share calculation because, under the treasury stock method, the inclusion of these would be anti-dilutive.

As of June 30, 2023, there were approximately 111.9 thousand RSUs and 58.4 thousand RSAs excluded from the diluted earnings per share calculation because, under the treasury stock method, the inclusion of these would be anti-dilutive.

As discussed in Note 13, the Company repurchased 521,651 shares and 1,646,127 shares of its common stock in the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, respectively. The effect of these repurchases on the Company’s weighted-average shares outstanding for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 was a reduction of 1,494,643 shares and 940,695 shares, respectively, due to the timing of the repurchases.

NOTE 15 –INCOME TAXES

A reconciliation between the income tax provision at the U.S. statutory tax rate and the Company’s income tax provision on the condensed consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income is below (in thousands, except for tax rates):

Effective income tax rates for interim periods are based upon our current estimated annual rate. The Company’s effective income tax rate varies based upon an estimate of taxable earnings as well as on the mix of taxable earnings in the various states and countries in which we operate. Changes in the annual allocation and apportionment of the Company’s activity among these jurisdictions results in changes to the effective rate utilized to measure the Company’s deferred tax assets and liabilities.

Index

Our income tax provision includes the expected benefit of all deferred tax assets, including our net operating loss carryforwards. With certain exceptions, these net operating loss carryforwards will expire from 2030 through 2037 for federal losses, from 2029 through 2038 for state losses, and from 2039 through 2044 for foreign losses. After consideration of all evidence, both positive and negative, management has determined thatno valuation allowance is required at June 30, 2024 on the Company’s U.S. federal or state deferred tax assets; however, a valuation allowance has been recorded at June 30, 2024 on deferred tax assets associated with Canadian, Spanish, Italian, German and Dutch net operating loss carryforwards as these foreign subsidiaries have a history of incurring taxable losses in recent years. The valuation allowance will be maintained until sufficient positive evidence exists to support their future realization. Utilization of the Company’s net operating loss carryforwards is subject to limitation under Internal Revenue Code Section 382 and similar tax provisions in the foreign jurisdictions in which we operate.

As presented in the income tax reconciliation above, the tax provision recognized on the condensed consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income was impacted by state taxes, non-deductible officer compensation and share-based compensation tax benefits, and foreign tax rates applicable to the Company’s foreign subsidiaries that are higher or lower than the U.S. statutory rate. Our effective state tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 was lower than our effective state tax rate for the three and six ended June 30, 2023. The decrease in our effective state tax rate is primarily a result of a decrease in the statutory rates for certain states in which we operate.

Although there can be no assurance as to the ultimate disposition of these matters, it is the opinion of the Company’s management, based upon the information available at this time and the stage of the proceedings, that it is not possible to determine the probability of loss or estimate of damages, and therefore, the Company has not established a reserve for any of these proceedings.
