Summary
Summary of the 10-Q filed August 15, 2011. Cited figures are marked; the original filing is the authoritative source.
FleetCor Technologies, Inc. (CPAY) reported a solid second quarter for 2011, demonstrating robust revenue growth and improved net income compared to the prior year.
Total revenue increased by 20.4% to $134.2 milliona for the quarter and by 13.7% to $245.2 million for the first six months of the year, driven by organic growth, higher fuel prices, and favorable foreign exchange rates. Net income saw a significant increase of 23.9% to $36.7 million for the quarter and 21.2% to $69.0 million for the first six months. This improvement was achieved despite a notable increase in General and Administrative expenses, largely due to higher non-cash stock compensation and public company costs.
The company also successfully refinanced its debt, entering into a new $900 millionb credit facility, which was used to retire older debt. This strategic move reduced interest expenses and improved the company's financial flexibility.

05—Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
What were the main drivers of FleetCor's revenue growth in the second quarter of 2011?
FleetCor's revenue growth was driven by several factors, including organic growth in its payment programs, higher average retail fuel prices compared to the prior year, increased spread revenue due to favorable fuel cost dynamics, and the weakening of the U.S. dollar which resulted in favorable foreign exchange rates.
What is the significance of the new credit facility for FleetCor?
The new $900 million credit facility, entered into in June 2011, is significant as it allowed FleetCor to retire its older debt obligations (2005 Credit Facility and CCS Credit Facility). This refinancing is expected to reduce interest expenses, provide greater financial flexibility, and support future working capital needs, acquisitions, and general corporate purposes.
Why did General and Administrative expenses increase so significantly?
The substantial increase in General and Administrative expenses, particularly for the quarter (65.0%) and year-to-date (51.1%), was primarily attributed to higher non-cash stock-based compensation expense related to the company's stock incentive plans and increased public company costs associated with compliance and reporting requirements.
How did the company's international segment perform compared to North America?
Both segments showed solid growth. The North American segment remained the larger contributor to revenue. However, the International segment experienced strong revenue growth (16.9% for the quarter and 13.8% year-to-date) and reported higher operating margins (47.0% for the quarter) than North America (43.6% for the quarter), benefiting from favorable foreign exchange rates and higher fuel prices.
