Frequently Asked Questions
What were the primary drivers of the significant revenue growth in the first quarter of 2014?
The primary drivers of revenue growth were organic expansion within existing payment programs, leading to increased transaction volumes and revenue per transaction, combined with the positive impact of acquisitions completed in 2013. These acquisitions contributed approximately $45 million to the revenue in the quarter.
How did the company's profitability change, and what factors influenced operating margins?
Net income increased by 16.2% to $75.1 million. While operating income grew by 21.1%, operating margins slightly compressed from 48.7% to 45.0%. This compression was mainly due to increased general and administrative expenses (driven by stock-based compensation and acquisition-related costs) and a significant rise in depreciation and amortization, largely from acquired intangible assets.
What is the company's liquidity position, and are there any concerns regarding its ability to meet financial obligations?
The company's liquidity position remains strong, with $283.4 million in unrestricted cash and cash equivalents at the end of the quarter. Additionally, it has substantial undrawn availability under its credit and securitization facilities. Management believes these resources are sufficient to meet its liquidity needs for at least the next twelve months.
How did acquisitions completed in 2013 impact the financial results in Q1 2014?
Acquisitions completed in 2013 had a significant impact, contributing approximately $45 million in revenue. They also led to increased operating expenses, particularly in processing, selling, general and administrative, and depreciation and amortization due to the amortization of acquired intangible assets and integration costs. These acquisitions also drove higher revenue per transaction, especially in the international segment.
