Summary
FleetCor Technologies, Inc. (CPAY) reported strong top-line growth in its first quarter of 2012, with revenues increasing by 31.7% year-over-year to $146.2 million. This growth was driven by both organic expansion and the strategic acquisitions of its Mexican business and Allstar Business Solutions completed in 2011. The International segment showed particularly robust growth, with revenues up 60.7%, though the acquisitions also led to a lower consolidated revenue per transaction. Net income also saw a significant increase of 30.1% to $42.1 million. While overall operating margin slightly decreased due to the impact of lower-margin acquisitions, the North America segment's operating margin improved. The company's liquidity remains strong, supported by existing cash balances, an undrawn credit facility, and a securitization facility, enabling continued investment in growth and potential future acquisitions.
