CPI Card Group Inc. Reports Third Quarter 2021 Results

Net Sales Increased 20% to $99.6 Million

Net Income Increased 14% to $6.6 Million; Adjusted EBITDA Increased 23% to $21.5 Million

Strong Growth Across Portfolio

CPI Card Group Inc. (Nasdaq: PMTS) (“CPI” or the “Company”), a payment technology company and leading provider of credit, debit, and prepaid solutions, today reported financial results for the third quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2021.

“We continued to deliver strong performance in the third quarter, as we maintain our focus on providing high quality products and services that meet the needs of our diverse and growing customer base,” said Scott Scheirman, President and Chief Executive Officer of CPI. “Our business has proved resilient throughout the pandemic, and this quarter’s results reflect the dedicated execution of our strategies by our entire organization as we navigate ongoing supply-chain and labor shortage challenges.”

Scheirman continued, “We remain committed to our vision of being the partner of choice in payment solutions by providing market-leading quality products and customer service, while operating a market-competitive business model.”

2021 Business Highlights

  • Our comprehensive end-to-end solutions contributed to earning new FinTech and traditional financial services customers.
  • Our innovative tamper-evident packaging solutions contributed to strong growth in our Prepaid Debit segment and further enhanced our leadership in the U.S. open loop retail prepaid market.
  • We generated incremental net sales from customer demand for higher-priced contactless cards, as the U.S. payment card market continues its ongoing transition to contactless solutions.
  • We continued to lead the eco-focused payment card market in the U.S., as evidenced by selling over 40 million eco-focused cards since launch in 2019.
  • Our innovative personalization services contributed to net sales growth, including from our Card@Once® Software-as-a-Service instant issuance solutions and CPI On-Demand®.
  • We refinanced our debt in the first quarter of 2021, extending maturities and enhancing liquidity. We have reduced outstanding debt by more than $30 million since December 31, 2020 and our net leverage ratio was less than 4x at September 30, 2021.

Third Quarter 2021 Financial Highlights

Net sales increased 20% year-over-year to $99.6 million in the third quarter of 2021.

  • Debit and Credit segment net sales increased 21% to $76.1 million. Net sales growth was primarily driven by the ongoing transition to higher-priced contactless cards and related card personalization and new customer growth, and included strong contributions from Card@Once® and CPI On-Demand®.
  • Prepaid Debit segment net sales increased 14% to $23.5 million, primarily due to higher volumes from existing customers, including the acquisition of new portfolios and the replenishment of inventory by those customers.

Net sales in the prior year were impacted by lower customer demand than expected in both segments, which we believe was primarily attributable to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Gross profit increased 23% to $37.7 million and gross profit margin was 37.8%, which compared to 37.0% in the prior year. The increase in gross profit margin was primarily due to operating leverage from higher net sales, partially offset by increased labor costs as a percentage of sales.

Income from operations increased 24% year-over-year to $16.7 million, compared to $13.5 million in the prior year.

Third quarter 2021 net income was $6.6 million, or $0.56 earnings per diluted share, an increase of 14% year-over-year from net income of $5.8 million, or $0.52 earnings per diluted share, in the third quarter of 2020.

Adjusted EBITDA increased 23% year-over-year to $21.5 million as a result of net sales growth and operating leverage, partially offset by increased labor costs and other compensation-related expenses.

Year-to-date 2021 Financial Highlights

Net sales increased 24% year-over-year to $281.9 million in the first nine months of 2021.

  • Debit and Credit segment net sales increased 21% to $218.8 million. Net sales growth was primarily driven by new customer growth and the ongoing transition to contactless cards and related card personalization, and included strong contributions from Card@Once® and CPI On-Demand®.
  • Prepaid Debit segment net sales increased 30% to $63.3 million primarily due to higher volumes from existing customers, including the acquisition of new portfolios and the replenishment of inventory by those customers.

Net sales in the prior year were impacted by lower customer demand than expected in both segments, which we believe was primarily attributable to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Gross profit for the first nine months increased 39% year-over-year to $110.5 million and gross profit margin increased to 39.2% from 34.8% in the prior year.

Income from operations increased 94% year-over-year to $50.3 million, compared to $26.0 million in the prior year.

For the year-to-date period, net income was $15.3 million, or $1.30 earnings per diluted share, in 2021 compared to net income of $8.8 million, or $0.79 earnings per diluted share, in 2020, an increase of 73% year-over-year. Year-to-date net income and diluted earnings per share were adversely impacted by $5.0 million of debt extinguishment costs and $2.6 million of make-whole interest expense incurred during the first quarter of 2021 when the Company refinanced its debt.

Adjusted EBITDA for the first nine months increased 57% year-over-year to $62.9 million.

Balance Sheet, Liquidity, and Cash Flow

As of September 30, 2021, cash and cash equivalents was $20.9 million. Cash provided by operating activities in the first nine months of 2021 was $14.5 million, which is net of $21.8 million in inventory investments to support the business and includes $9.8 million in cash tax refunds related to the CARES Act. Capital expenditures were $4.8 million in the first nine months of 2021, yielding Free Cash Flow of $9.7 million, a $2.8 million increase compared to the first nine months of 2020.

Total long-term debt principal outstanding as of September 30, 2021 was comprised of the Company’s $310 million Senior Notes due 2026. The Company had no borrowings outstanding under its $50 million ABL Revolver as of September 30, 2021, consistent with the Company’s capital structure strategy to maintain ample liquidity, invest in the business and deleverage the balance sheet.

“Our customer-focused sales efforts and operating leverage have contributed to strong profit and cash flow growth in the first nine months of the year,” said Amintore Schenkel, Chief Financial Officer. “As we look to the remainder of the year, we are facing increasing impacts from labor shortages, supply-chain constraints, and additional costs. We are continuing to implement initiatives and investments to respond to the changing environment.”

Full-Year 2021

CPI has delivered substantial growth in the first three quarters of 2021 with year-to-date increases in net sales of 24%, net income of 73%, and adjusted EBITDA of 57%. Customer demand for CPI’s products and services remains strong. The financial results for the fourth quarter are expected to be influenced by several factors that may cause trends to vary from the first nine months:

  • Net sales growth in the first nine months benefitted from significant new customer onboarding and prepaid debit card retail inventory replenishment
  • The Company expects increased labor, materials, and certain other costs to begin to be more impactful in the fourth quarter

The Company is responding to the strong customer demand by hiring additional labor and investing in state-of-the-art equipment to increase future capacity and add new capabilities. The Company is also implementing selective price increases, while continuing to carefully manage our supply chain and inventory.

Benefits of price increases and equipment investments are expected to have limited impact in the 2021 fourth quarter. The Company expects fourth quarter sales growth and profit margins will not be as strong as the first nine months, but still expects to deliver strong growth in net sales, profit margins, and overall profitability for the full year ending December 31, 2021.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to financial results reported in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), we have provided the following non-GAAP financial measures in this release, all reported on a continuing operations basis: EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, Free Cash Flow, LTM Adjusted EBITDA and Net Leverage Ratio. These non-GAAP financial measures are utilized by management in comparing our operating performance on a consistent basis between fiscal periods. We believe that these financial measures are appropriate to enhance an overall understanding of our underlying operating performance trends compared to historical and prospective periods and our peers. Management also believes that these measures are useful to investors in their analysis of our results of operations and provide improved comparability between fiscal periods. Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial information calculated in accordance with GAAP. Our non-GAAP measures may be different from similarly titled measures of other companies. Investors are encouraged to review the reconciliation of these historical non-GAAP measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures included in Exhibit E to this press release.

Adjusted EBITDA

Adjusted EBITDA is presented on a continuing operations basis and is defined as EBITDA (which represents earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization) adjusted for stock-based compensation expense; estimated sales tax expense (benefit); restructuring and other charges; loss on debt extinguishment; foreign currency gain or loss; and other items that are unusual in nature, infrequently occurring or not considered part of our core operations, as set forth in the reconciliation in Exhibit E. Adjusted EBITDA is intended to show our unleveraged, pre-tax operating results and therefore reflects our financial performance based on operational factors, excluding non-operational, unusual or non-recurring losses or gains. Adjusted EBITDA has important limitations as an analytical tool, and you should not consider it in isolation, or as a substitute for, analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. For example, Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect: (a) our capital expenditures, future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments; (b) changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs; (c) the significant interest expenses or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments on our debt; (d) tax payments that represent a reduction in cash available to us; (e) any cash requirements for the assets being depreciated and amortized that may have to be replaced in the future; (f) the impact of earnings or charges resulting from matters that we and the lenders under our credit agreement may not consider indicative of our ongoing operations; or (g) the impact of any discontinued operations. In particular, our definition of Adjusted EBITDA allows us to add back certain non-operating, unusual or non-recurring charges that are deducted in calculating net income, even though these are expenses that may recur, vary greatly and are difficult to predict and can represent the effect of long-term strategies as opposed to short-term results. In addition, certain of these expenses represent the reduction of cash that could be used for other purposes. Adjusted EBITDA margin percentage as shown in Exhibit E is computed as Adjusted EBITDA divided by total net sales.

We define LTM Adjusted EBITDA as Adjusted EBITDA (defined previously) for the last twelve months. LTM Adjusted EBITDA is used in the computation of Net Leverage Ratio, and is reconciled in Exhibit E.

Free Cash Flow

We define Free Cash Flow as cash flow provided by (used in) operating activities, less capital expenditures. We use this metric in analyzing our ability to service and repay our debt. However, this measure does not represent funds available for investment or other discretionary uses since it does not deduct cash used to service our debt, nor does it reflect the cash impacts of discontinued operations. Free Cash Flow should not be considered in isolation, or as a substitute for, cash (used in) provided by operating activities or any other measures of liquidity derived in accordance with GAAP.

Net Leverage Ratio

Management and various investors use the ratio of total debt, plus finance lease obligations, less cash, divided by LTM Adjusted EBITDA, or “Net Leverage Ratio”, as a measure of our financial strength when making key investment decisions and evaluating us against peers.
