Frequently Asked Questions

In 2011, FleetCor Technologies, Inc. operated as a leading independent global provider of specialized payment products and services, primarily catering to businesses, commercial fleets, major oil companies, petroleum marketers, and government entities across North America, Latin America, and Europe. Their core offerings involved payment programs for fuel, lodging, and related services, designed to help businesses manage and control employee spending.

FleetCor's revenue growth in 2011 was driven by a combination of factors: organic growth in its existing payment programs, the impact of acquisitions completed during the year (notably the Mexican prepaid fuel card and food voucher business and Allstar Business Solutions), higher average retail fuel prices, favorable fuel spread revenues (where wholesale costs decreased faster than retail prices), and the weakening of the U.S. dollar against foreign currencies, which favorably impacted international revenue.

In 2011, FleetCor refinanced its debt by entering into a new five-year, $900 million credit facility. This facility included a $300 million term loan and a $600 million revolving credit facility. The proceeds were used to retire existing indebtedness under its previous credit facilities. The company also continued to utilize its accounts receivable securitization facility to manage its working capital needs.

The filing identifies several risks, including potential adverse effects from declining retail fuel prices, contraction in fuel-price spreads, credit risk associated with its customer base, intense competition, reliance on strategic partnerships with major oil companies, and the potential impairment of goodwill and intangible assets. Additionally, risks related to foreign currency fluctuations, international operations, technological disruptions, and debt obligations are also noted.
