Current report

(1) Refer to our definitions of Annualized recurring revenue, ATM as a Service units, LTM ARPU and Network Managed Units in the section entitled “Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Use of Certain Terms.”

Current report

Annualized Recurring Revenue (“ARR”). Recurring revenue, excluding software licenses sold as a subscription, for the last three months times four, plus the rolling four quarters for term-based software license arrangements that include customer termination rights. Atleos believes this metric may be useful to investors in evaluating the Company’s achievement of strategic goals related to the conversion of the self-service banking business to recurring revenue streams over time. ARR is an operating metric and does not necessarily reflect the pattern of revenue recognition in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered a substitute for GAAP revenue. ARR does not have a uniform definition and, therefore, Atleos’ definitions may differ from other companies’ definitions of this measure.

Current report

ATM as a Service Units. The number of ATMs as of period end that are deployed under our ATM as a Service offering. ATM as a Service refers to our turnkey, end-to-end ATM platform solution, whereby we provide comprehensive managed services solutions to financial institutions. Atleos believes this metric may be useful to investors in measuring the Company’s achievement of strategic goals related to growth of the ATM as a Service business over time.

Current report

Last twelve months average revenue per unit (“LTM ARPU”). For the Network segment, total segment revenue for the previous twelve months divided by the average Network Managed Units for the previous twelve months. Atleos believes this metric may be useful to investors in evaluating the Company’s achievement of strategic goals related to the improved monetization of our ATM fleet over a specified period, excluding the impact of seasonality. LTM ARPU is an operating metric and does not represent revenue generated solely by our Network Managed Units, as total Network segment revenue includes revenue generated from other sources besides the Network Managed Units. LTM ARPU does not have a uniform definition and, therefore, Atleos’ definitions may differ from other companies’ definitions of this measure.

Current report

Network Managed Units. All transacting ATMs as of period end, whether Company-owned or Merchant-owned, other than those for which we only provide third party processing services and those under legacy managed services arrangements. This metric is used in the calculation of Network segment LTM ARPU.

Current report

T&T revenue decreased 6% for the three months ended September 30, 2024 compared to the prior year period due to a decrease in hardware maintenance and installation revenue. T&T revenue was flat for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, compared to the prior year period, due to the decrease in hardware maintenance and installation revenue offset by one-time hardware sales.

Current report

On October 17, 2024, Atleos entered into the First Amendment to the Credit Agreement. For additional information, including the impact on the Company’s long-term borrowings, refer to the subsequent event section of Note 1, “Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies”, of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
Removed paragraphs (1)

Previous wording

The bank failures in 2023, in addition to other global macroeconomic conditions, have caused a degree of uncertainty in the investor community and among bank customers, and could significantly impact the national, regional and local banking industry and the global business environment in which Atleos operates. The Company does not believe that the circumstances of these bank failures are indicators of broader issues within the banking system. However, if there is a severe or prolonged economic downturn, it could result in a variety of risks to our business, including driving banking customers to tighten budgets and curtail spending, which would negatively impact our sales and business.

Current wording

Net income (loss) attributable to Atleos and Adjusted EBITDA(2)as a percentage of total revenue

Previous wording

Adjusted Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (“Adjusted EBITDA”)Atleos’ management uses the non-GAAP measure Adjusted EBITDA because it provides useful information to investors as an indicator of performance of the Company’s ongoing business operations. Atleos determines Adjusted EBITDA based on GAAP Net income (loss) attributable to Atleos plus interest expense, net; plus income tax expense (benefit); plus depreciation and amortization; plus acquisition-related costs; plus pension mark-to-market adjustments, pension settlements, pension curtailments and pension special termination benefits; plus separation-related costs; plus transformation and restructuring charges (which includes integration, severance and other exit and disposal costs); plus stock-based compensation expense; plus other special (expense) income items. These adjustments are considered non-operational or non-recurring in nature and are excluded from the Adjusted EBITDA metric utilized by our chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) in evaluating segment performance and are separately delineated to reconcile back to total reported income attributable to Atleos. This format is useful to investors because it allows analysis and comparability of operating trends. It also includes the same information that is used by Atleos management to make decisions regarding our segments and to assess our financial performance. Refer to the table below for the reconciliations of Net income (loss) attributable to Atleos (GAAP) to Adjusted EBITDA (non-GAAP).

Adjusted gross margin as a percentage of revenue (non-GAAP), Adjusted selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenue (non-GAAP) and Adjusted research and development expenses as a percentage of revenue (non-GAAP). Atleos’ Adjusted gross margin rate (non-GAAP), Adjusted selling, general and administrative expenses as a percent of revenue (non-GAAP) and Adjusted research and development expenses as a percent of revenue (non-GAAP) are determined by excluding, as applicable: acquisition-related costs; pension settlements, pension curtailments and pension special termination benefits; separation-related costs; amortization of acquisition-related intangibles; stock-based compensation expense; transformation and restructuring charges (which includes integration, severance and other exit and disposal costs); and other special (expense) income items from Atleos’ GAAP gross margin, selling, general and administrative expenses, and research and development expenses, respectively. Due to the nature of these special items, Atleos’ management uses these non-GAAP measures to evaluate year-over-year operating performance. Atleos believes these measures are useful for investors because they may provide a more complete understanding of Atleos’ underlying operational performance, as well as consistency and comparability with Atleos’ past reports of financial results.

Previous wording

Revenue results in the first half of 2024 were negatively impacted by the delayed transfer of seven legal entities to Atleos following our separation from Voyix, due to local processes of setting up Atleos legal entities. Prior to the Separation, the operating results of each of these entities were included within Atleos’ results under carve-out methodology as all entities were dedicated to the Atleos business. Of these seven entities, three transferred during the first quarter of 2024 and two entities transferred in the second quarter of 2024. The remaining two entities are expected to transfer in the second half of 2024. We estimate the delayed transfer of these entities resulted in an approximately $6 million and $19 million decline in revenue for the three and six months ended 2024 compared to the prior year period.

Previous wording

Total revenue increased 4% for the three months ended June 30, 2024 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2023, primarily driven by the growth of recurring service revenue streams in our core business as well as revenues recognized pursuant to our commercial agreements with Voyix.

Previous wording

Product revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2024 decreased 6% compared to the three months ended June 30, 2023, due to declines in non-core commerce-related revenue of approximately $11 million related to the wind down of that business, ATM and other hardware revenue of approximately $14 million and Bitcoin-related revenues of approximately $7 million, partially offset by approximately $13 million of product revenues earned under the commercial agreements with Voyix. The decline in ATM hardware revenue is partially due to the shift in the business from one-time hardware sales to recurring ATM as a Service subscriptions as well as a $2 million reduction due to the delayed legal entities described above. The decline in Bitcoin-related revenue is due to a decrease in transaction volumes.

Current wording

Product revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2024 decreased 7% compared to the three months ended September 30, 2023, due to declines in non-core commerce-related revenue of approximately $6 million related to the wind down of that business, ATM and other hardware revenue of approximately $11 million and Bitcoin-related revenues of approximately $9 million, partially offset by approximately $6 million of product revenues earned under the commercial agreements with Voyix and a $2 million increase in software license revenue.

Previous wording

Services revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2024 increased 7% compared to the prior year period, driven primarily by 8% total growth in our core self-service banking and network offerings. Services revenue benefited from increases of approximately $23 million of transaction processing services revenue, $11 million in hardware maintenance and installation revenue, $10 million in ATM as a Service revenue as well as $13 million in other software-related revenues. The increase in transaction processing services was driven by an increase in withdrawal transaction volumes and the favorable mix of payments transactions year-over-year, while the growth in ATM as a Service revenue was due to the continued growth in our ATM as a Service offering, whereby we own the ATMs and charge per ATM for the service. The increase in hardware maintenance and installation was primarily due to an increase in the core business of approximately $7 million and approximately $5 million earned under the commercial agreements with Voyix. Included in the activity described above, the delayed transfer of legal entities resulted in a reduction of hardware maintenance and installation revenue and other software-related services revenue of approximately $3 million and $1 million, respectively.

Current wording

Services revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2024 increased 3% compared to the prior year period, driven primarily by 5% total growth in our core self-service banking and network offerings.

Services revenue benefited from increases of approximately $32 million of transaction processing services revenue, $37 million in hardware maintenance and installation revenue, $22 million in ATM as a Service revenue as well as $22 million in other software-related revenues. The significant increase in transaction processing services was driven by an increase in withdrawal transaction volumes and the favorable mix of payments transactions year-over-year, while the growth in ATM as a Service revenue was due to the continued growth in our ATM as a Service offering, whereby we own the ATMs and charge per ATM for the service. The increase in hardware maintenance and installation was primarily due to an increase in the core business of approximately $13 million and approximately $24 million earned under the commercial agreements with Voyix.

Excluding these items, adjusted gross margin as a percentage of revenue (non-GAAP) decreased from 26.0% to 25.5% due to the impact of lower margins recognized on services provided under the commercial agreements with Voyix. Our services gross margin was also impacted by increased interest rates driving $2 million of higher rental cost on our vault cash agreements as well as incremental labor costs.

Current wording

Selling, general, and administrative expenses were $132 million in the three months ended June 30, 2024, compared to $149 million in the three months ended June 30, 2023. As a percentage of revenue, selling, general and administrative expenses were 12.2% in the three months ended June 30, 2024 compared to 14.3% in the three months ended June 30, 2023.

Current wording

Selling, general, and administrative expenses were $127 million in the three months ended September 30, 2024, compared to $160 million in the three months ended September 30, 2023. As a percentage of revenue, selling, general and administrative expenses decreased to 11.8% in the three months ended September 30, 2024 compared to 15.0% in the three months ended September 30, 2023, primarily driven by higher separation-related costs and amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets in the prior year period. In the three months ended September 30, 2024, selling, general and administrative expenses included $4 million of amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets, $5 million of transformation and restructuring costs, $7 million of stock-based compensation expense and $4 million of separation-related costs. In the three months ended September 30, 2023, selling, general and administrative expenses included $9 million of amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets, $1 million of transformation and restructuring costs, $7 million of stock-based compensation expense and $46 million of separation-related costs. The beneficial impact of these cost changes compared to prior year was partially offset by lower costs allocated to Atleos under carve-out accounting methodologies in the prior year period, compared to operations as a stand-alone company in the three months ended September 30, 2024, which include separation cost dis-synergies and higher employee-benefit related costs. Adjusted selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenue (non-GAAP) increased from 9.1% to 9.9% due to the differences in cost allocations, employee-benefit related costs, and separation cost dis-synergies described above.

Selling, general, and administrative expenses were $391 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2024, compared to $445 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2023. As a percentage of revenue, selling, general and administrative expenses decreased to 12.2% in the nine months ended September 30, 2024 compared to 14.4% in the nine months ended September 30, 2023, primarily driven by higher separation-related costs and amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets in the prior year period. In the nine months ended September 30, 2024, selling, general and administrative expenses included $11 million of amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets, $8 million of transformation and restructuring costs, $23 million of stock-based compensation expense, $18 million of separation-related costs and $1 million of acquisition-related costs.

The beneficial impact of these cost changes compared to prior year was partially offset by lower costs allocated to Atleos under carve-out accounting methodologies in the prior year period, compared to operations as a stand-alone company in the nine months ended September 30, 2024, which include cost dis-synergies and higher employee-benefit related costs. Adjusted selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenue (non-GAAP) increased from 9.7% to 10.3% due to the differences in cost allocations, separation cost dis-synergies and employee-benefit related costs described above.

Atleos’ management uses a non-GAAP measure called “Adjusted free cash flow-unrestricted” to assess the financial performance and liquidity of Atleos. We define Adjusted free cash flow-unrestricted as net cash provided by operating activities less capital expenditures for property, plant and equipment, less additions to capitalized software, plus/minus the change in restricted cash settlement activity, plus/minus net reductions or reinvestment in the trade receivables facility established in the fourth quarter of 2023 due to fluctuations in the outstanding balance of receivables sold, plus/minus financing payments/receipts of owned ATM capital expenditures, and plus pension contributions and settlements. Restricted cash settlement activity represents the net change in amounts collected on behalf of, but not yet remitted to, certain of the Company’s merchant customers or third-party service providers that are pledged for a particular use or restricted to support these obligations. These amounts can fluctuate significantly period to period based on the number of days for which settlement to the merchant has not yet occurred or day of the week on which a reporting period ends. We believe Adjusted free cash flow-unrestricted information is useful for investors because it indicates the amount of cash available after these adjustments for, among other things, investments in Atleos’ existing businesses, strategic acquisitions, and repayment of debt obligations. Adjusted free cash flow-unrestricted does not represent the residual cash flow available, since there may be other non-discretionary expenditures that are not deducted from the measure. Adjusted free cash flow-unrestricted does not have a uniform definition under GAAP, and therefore Atleos’ definition may differ from other companies’ definitions of this measure. This non-GAAP measure should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, cash flows from operating activities under GAAP.
