2. Basis of preparation and consolidation

Statement of compliance

These Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) applicable to the preparation of interim financial statements, including International Accounting Standard ("IAS") 34, Interim Financial Reporting, as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”). Certain information and disclosures have been omitted or condensed. The accounting policies and methods of computation described in the audited annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2022 were applied consistently in the preparation of these condensed interim consolidated financial statements. Accordingly, these Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements should be read together with the Company’s audited annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2022.

Seasonality of interim operations

The operations of the Company can be seasonal, and the results of operations for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of operations for the full year or any future period.

Estimates, judgments and assumptions

The preparation of these Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements in conformity with IFRS requires management to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. The significant estimates, judgments and assumptions made by management are the same as those applied and described in the Company's audited annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2022.

3. Significant accounting policies and new accounting standards

Hedging and derivative financial instruments

Hedging relationships

The Company may enter into derivative financial instruments to hedge its market risk exposures. On initial designation of new hedges, the Company formally documents the relationship between the hedging instruments and hedged items, including the risk management objective and strategy in undertaking the hedge transaction, together with the methods that will be used to assess the effectiveness of the hedging relationship. The Company makes an assessment, both at the inception of the hedge relationship as well as on an ongoing basis, whether the hedging instruments are expected to be effective in offsetting the changes in the fair value or cash flows of the respective hedged items during the period for which the hedge is designated.

For a cash flow hedge of a forecasted transaction, the transaction should be highly probable to occur and should present an exposure to variations in cash flows that could ultimately affect reported net income (loss).

Derivative financial instruments are recognized initially at fair value, and attributable transaction costs are recognized in net income as incurred. Subsequent to initial recognition, derivatives are measured at fair value, and changes therein are accounted for as described below.

Cash flow hedges

When a derivative is designated as the hedging instrument in a hedge of the variability in cash flows attributable to a particular risk associated with a recognized asset or liability or a highly probable forecasted transaction that could affect net income (loss), the effective portion of changes in the fair value of the derivative is recognized in other comprehensive income (loss) and presented in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) as part of equity. The amount recognized in other comprehensive income (loss) is removed and included in net income (loss) under the same line item in the consolidated statements profit or loss as the hedged item, in the same period that the hedged cash flows affect net income (loss). Any ineffective portion of changes in the fair value of the derivative is recognized immediately in net income (loss). If the hedging instrument no longer meets the criteria for hedge accounting, then hedge accounting is discontinued prospectively. If the forecasted transaction is no longer expected to occur, then the balance in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) is recognized immediately in net income (loss).

Other accounting policies

Other accounting policies used in these interim financial statements are consistent with those applied and disclosed in the Company's audited annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2022.

New accounting standards and interpretations adopted

Amendments to IAS 12 Income taxes

These amendments provide a temporary relief from the requirement to recognize deferred income taxes arising from the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development's enacted or substantively enacted Pillar Two Model rules. The Company has applied these amendments.

New accounting standards and interpretations issued but not yet adopted

The IASB has issued new standards and amendments to existing standards which are applicable to the Company in future periods. There were no significant updates to the standards and interpretations issued but not yet adopted described in the Company's audited annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2022.

4. Business combinations

Transactions for the nine months ended September 30, 2023

Paya Holdings Inc.

On February 22, 2023, the Company acquired 100% of the shares of Paya Holdings Inc. ("Paya"), a leading U.S. provider of integrated payment and frictionless commerce solutions, for a total consideration of $1,401,121, comprised of $1,391,435 in cash and $9,686 of the portion of replacement share-based awards that was considered part of the consideration transferred. The cash consideration included the settlement by the Company of seller-related payments of $51,876 paid by Paya immediately prior to closing and thereby increased the calculated purchase price. The Company determined that the transaction met the definition of a business combination. Acquisition costs of $15,470 have been expensed during the nine months ended September 30, 2023. For the period from the acquisition date to September 30, 2023, Paya contributed revenue of $182,309 and net income of $20,621. The net income includes the amortization of identifiable intangible assets acquired.

Assuming this business combination would have been completed on January 1, 2023, Paya would have contributed pro forma revenue of approximately $222,227 and pro forma net income of approximately $21,341 for the nine months ended September 30, 2023. In determining these amounts, the Company assumed that the fair value adjustments, determined provisionally, that arose on the date of acquisition would have been the same if the acquisition had occurred on January 1, 2023. To align with the Company's presentation, Paya's revenue contribution amounts are presented net of interchange fees, which was not the case for a small portion of fees prior to its acquisition by the Company.

Paya has become part of the Company's United States federal consolidated tax group. During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, this resulted in the set-off of deferred tax assets of the Company with the deferred tax liabilities of Paya.

Since the initial purchase price allocation was recognized, the portion of replacement share-based awards that was considered part of the consideration transferred has been increased by $2,641, current assets decreased by $992, current liabilities increased by $1,015 and deferred tax liabilities decreased by $506 relating to new information obtained about facts and circumstances that existed at the time of acquisition. Those adjustments to the provisional amounts have been recorded with a corresponding impact on goodwill of $4,142.

Other

On March 1, 2023, the Company acquired certain assets of a service provider. The Company determined that the transaction met the definition of a business combination. The total cash consideration for this acquisition was $10,000. Acquisition costs of $129 have been expensed during the nine months ended September 30, 2023. For the period from the acquisition date to September 30, 2023, those assets contributed revenue of $907 and net loss of $2,366. The net loss includes the amortization of identifiable intangible assets acquired resulting from the transaction on March 1, 2023.

Assuming this business combination would have been completed on January 1, 2023, the Company estimates that those assets would have contributed pro forma revenue of $1,179 and pro forma net loss of $3,102 for the nine months ended September 30, 2023. In determining these amounts, the Company has assumed that the fair value adjustments, determined provisionally, that arose on the date of acquisition would have been the same if the acquisition had occurred on January 1, 2023.

1 Goodwill mainly consists of future growth, assembled workforce and expected synergies, which were not recorded separately since they did not meet the recognition criteria for identifiable intangible assets. Goodwill arising from the Paya acquisition is not deductible for income tax purposes.

Current portion of loans and borrowings			(10,866)		(8,652)
Loans and borrowings			1,229,298		502,102

Facility amount represents the principal amount of the credit facility. The carrying amount of loans and borrowings is presented net of unamortized transaction costs. Transaction costs relating to the issuance of loans and borrowings are amortized over the term of the debt using the effective interest rate method.

a)Amended and restated credit facility

The outstanding principal of the term loan is payable quarterly at an annual rate of 1.00% and the remaining balance is payable at maturity on September 28, 2025. The undrawn revolving credit facility matures on September 28, 2024. The Amended and restated credit facility is secured by all current and future assets of the Company and its existing and future subsidiaries.

i)Loans drawn in US dollars under the First Lien Credit facilities bear interest at the ABR1 plus 1.50% or the adjusted eurocurrency2 rate plus 2.50%. As at September 30, 2023, the outstanding Term loan facilities interest rate was 7.93% (December 31, 2022 – 6.89%).

ii)Loans drawn in Canadian dollars under the First Lien Credit facilities bear interest at the Canadian prime rate plus 1.50% or banker’s acceptance rate plus 2.50%. As at September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 there was no loan denominated in Canadian dollars.

iii)LIBOR is no longer available following the benchmark reform and was replaced by the Term Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”). For the term loan facilities, LIBOR for the interest computation was replaced by the sums of: a) Term SOFR; and b) 0.11% for interest period of one-month, 0.26% for interest period of three months or 0.43% for interest period of six months. For the revolving credit facility, LIBOR was replaced by the sums of: a) Term SOFR; and b) 0.10%.

1 The Alternate Base Rate is defined as a rate per annum equal to the higher of a) Federal funds effective rate + 0.5%; b) LIBOR plus 1%; c) Prime rate; and d) 1.50%.

2 The adjusted Eurocurrency rate is defined as an interest rate per annum equal to the greater of: a) the Eurocurrency rate multiplied by the Statutory Reserve rate and b) 0.50%.

b) Reducing revolving credit facility

On February 22, 2023, concurrent with the completion of the Paya acquisition (Note 4), the Company entered into a Reducing revolving credit facility in an amount of $800,000. Commencing on June 30, 2023, the commitments in respect of this facility will automatically be permanently reduced by $10 million on the last day of each fiscal quarter. The maturity date of this facility is September 28, 2025. Until the delivery of the Company's financial statements for the quarter ending September 30, 2023, borrowings under the Reducing revolving credit facility bear interest, at the Company's option, at either (a) Term SOFR (including a 0.10% credit spread adjustment) plus a margin of 3.00% or (b) the Alternate base rate1 plus a margin of 2.00%. Thereafter, borrowings under the Reducing revolving credit facility will bear interest, at the Company's option, at either (a) Term SOFR (including a 0.10% credit spread adjustment) plus a margin ranging from 2.5% to 3.25% or (b) the Alternate base rate1 plus a margin ranging from 1.50% to 2.25%, in each case, based on a first lien leverage ratio. As at September 30, 2023, the Reducing revolving credit facility interest rate was 8.42%.

The Reducing revolving credit facility is secured by all current and future assets of the Company and its existing and future subsidiaries. The continued availability of the Reducing revolving facility is subject to the Company's ability to maintain a total leverage ratio of less than or equal to 4.50 : 1.00 for the test period before September 30, 2023, and with the ratio decreasing by 0.25 on October 1, 2023 and every six months thereafter, until it reaches 3.50 : 1.00 on March 31, 2025. The total leverage ratio considers the Company's consolidated net debt, calculated as long-term debt less unrestricted cash, to consolidated adjusted EBITDA, calculated in accordance with the terms of the agreement. The Company must also maintain its interest coverage ratio above 2.50 : 1.00. The interest coverage ratio considers the Company's consolidated adjusted EBITDA, calculated in accordance with the terms of the agreement, to consolidated cash interest expense. The Company was in compliance with all applicable covenants as at September 30, 2023.

1 The Alternate Base Rate is defined as a rate per annum equal to the higher of a) Federal funds effective rate + 0.5%; b) Adjusted Term Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) effective plus 1.00%; (c) Prime Rate; and (d) 1.00%.

8. Share capital

The Company also issued 955,070 Subordinate Voting Shares for a cash consideration of $7,728 during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 following the exercise of stock options and the settlement of Restricted Share Units ("RSUs").

On August 8, 2023 the Board of Directors approved a regular quarterly cash dividend of $0.10 per subordinate voting share and multiple voting share. On November 7, 2023, the Board of Directors approved and declared a cash dividend of $0.10 per subordinate voting share and multiple voting share payable for this quarter on December 7, 2023 to shareholders of record on November 20, 2023.

There were 76,064,619 Multiple Voting Shares and 63,066,678 Subordinate Voting Shares outstanding as at September 30, 2023.

Share repurchase liability

In March 2023, the Company entered into an automatic share purchase plan ("ASPP") with a third-party broker for the Company to allow for the purchase of Subordinate Voting Shares under the NCIB during the Company's blackout periods. Under this agreement, the broker was authorized to repurchase Subordinate Voting Shares, without consultation with the Company, subject to predefined share price and other limitations imposed by the Company and subject to rules and policies of the TSX and the Nasdaq and applicable securities laws, such as a daily purchase restriction. The Company recognized a share repurchase liability on that date. The fair value of the share repurchase liability was determined using the Company's quoted share price.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, shares were repurchased and cancelled under the ASPP for a cash consideration of $56,042. The change in fair value of share repurchase liability during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 was a loss of $571.

The Omnibus Incentive Plan permits the Board of Directors to grant awards of options, RSUs, Performance Share Units ("PSUs") and Deferred Share Units (“DSUs”) to eligible participants.

RSUs, PSUs and DSUs will be settled by the issuance of shares at the settlement date. DSUs vest immediately as they are granted for past services. The RSUs and PSUs vest over a period of up to three years. RSUs, PSUs and DSUs participants are eligible to receive RSUs, PSUs or DSUs dividend equivalents with the same vesting conditions under the Nuvei Omnibus Incentive Plan.

Under the Paya equity plan, 1,324,341 Subordinate Voting Shares of the Company are reserved for issuance and issuable upon the exercise or settlement of awards, which represents the replacement awards granted upon closing of the Paya acquisition. The Company cannot grant further awards under the Paya equity plan.

The portion of the replacement awards at the acquisition date relating to services rendered up to the acquisition date, representing an amount of $9,686 was included as part of the consideration transferred (note 4). At the acquisition date, the portion of the replacement awards' fair value relating to services to be rendered in the future was $12,077 and will be recognized as compensation expense over the remaining vesting period.

13. Determination of fair values

Certain of the Company’s accounting policies and disclosures require the determination of fair value for both financial and non-financial assets and liabilities. Fair values have been determined for measurement and/or disclosure purposes using the following methods.

(Unaudited)

September 30, 2023 and 2022

(in thousands of US dollars, except for share and per share amounts)

Financial assets and financial liabilities

In establishing fair value, the Company uses a fair value hierarchy based on levels as defined below:

•Level 1: defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets.

•Level 2: defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable.

•Level 3: defined as inputs that are based on little or no observable market data, therefore requiring entities to develop their own assumptions.

The Company has determined that, excluding the derivative financial liability, the carrying amounts of its current financial assets and financial liabilities approximate their fair value given the short-term nature of these instruments.

The fair value of the variable interest rate non-current liabilities approximates the carrying amount as the liabilities bear interest at a rate that varies according to the market rate.

As at September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, financial instruments measured at fair value in the Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements of financial position were as follows:


	Notes	Fair value hierarchy	September 30, 2023	December 31, 2022
			$	$
Assets
Investments measured at fair value through profit or loss		Level 1	1,109	1,002
Investments measured at fair value through profit or loss		Level 3	2,148	2,148
Investment in equity instrument designated at fair value through other comprehensive income		Level 3	25,232	—
Advances to a third party independent sales organization		Level 3	—	2,154

Liabilities

Derivative financial liability - Interest rate swap		Level 2	1,008	—

Fair value measurement level 2

In the three months ended September 30, 2023, the Company entered into an interest rate swap agreement with a notional amount of $300,000 and a fixed interest rate of 4.67% maturing September 30, 2026 to hedge a portion of its future variable interest payments. This derivative is carried at fair value and is presented in the other current liabilities in the Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements of financial position.

Fair value remeasurement of the Company's level 2 instruments (interest rate swap) is calculated as the present value of the estimated future cash flows. Estimated cash flows are discounted using a yield curve which reflects the relevant benchmark interbank rate used by market participants for this purpose when pricing interest rate swaps.

Balance as at September 30, 2023	—	2,148	25,232

Fair value remeasurement of level 3 instruments is recognized in selling, general and administrative expenses. Investments measured at fair value through profit and loss and through other comprehensive income are recognized on the statement of financial position in other non-current assets. Below are the assumptions and valuation methods used in the level 3 fair value measurements:

•On March 15, 2023, the Company acquired an equity interest in a private company for a total cash consideration of $25,000. The company designated this equity investment at fair value through other comprehensive income.

•As at September 30, 2023, the fair value of the contingent consideration for the Mazooma acquisition is nil (nil for December 2022). The fair value of the contingent consideration is determined using a formula specified in the purchase agreement. The main assumption is the forecast of financial performance. The maximum contingent consideration that could be paid if the future financial targets are met is $331,658 thousands Canadian dollars ($244,261).

The Company is also exposed to possible uncertain tax positions in certain jurisdictions. Management does not expect that the resolution of those matters, either individually or in the aggregate, will have a material effect on the Company’s Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements.

Overview

We are a Canadian fintech company accelerating the business of clients around the world. Our modular, flexible and scalable technology allows leading companies to accept next-gen payments, offer all payout options and benefit form card issuing, banking, risk and fraud management services. We believe we are differentiated by our proprietary technology platform, which is purpose-built for high-growth eCommerce, business to business ("B2B"), government and integrated payments. Our platform enables customers to pay and/or accept payments worldwide regardless of their customers’ location, device or preferred payment method. Our solutions span the entire payments stack and include a fully integrated payments engine with global processing capabilities, a turnkey solution for frictionless payment experiences and a broad suite of data-driven business intelligence tools and risk management services. Connecting businesses to their customers in more than 200 markets worldwide, with local acquiring in 47 of those markets, 150 currencies and 669 alternative payment methods (“APMs”), we provide the technology and insights for customers and partners to succeed locally and globally with one integration – propelling them further, faster.

While global commerce continues to pivot online, eCommerce channels are converging and creating new and fast-growing opportunities for businesses of all sizes. Rapidly scaling across these commerce channels, however, can be complex and costly for businesses that rely on multiple providers in each local market. For example, customers may use disparate and varied systems for gateway services, payment processing, online fraud prevention, business intelligence and more, creating operational distractions and workflow challenges, which result in additional costs and financial inefficiencies. In parallel, consumers expect a consistent and frictionless transaction experience across all channels whether from a mobile device or computer. As a result, we believe businesses increasingly seek payment providers such as Nuvei who have a unified approach and can offer end-to-end solutions to help them navigate this complex environment.

We sell and distribute our solutions globally primarily through direct sales, indirect sales for SMBs and eCommerce integrated technology partners and platforms. Our approach to distribution is designed to enable us to efficiently market our payments and technology solutions at scale and is customized by both region and vertical to optimize sales. By relying on our local commercial teams and distribution partners who act as trusted technology providers to our customers, we believe we are able to serve more customers globally and grow with them as they grow their businesses and expand into new markets. We focus on the needs of our customers and how we can help them grow their revenue, and in turn our volume, with them. Due to the scalable nature of our business model and the inherent operating leverage, increases in volume drive profitable revenue growth.

Our revenue is primarily based on sales volume generated from our customers’ daily sales and through various transaction and subscription-based fees for our modular technology. Modular technology includes, for example, gateway, global processing, APMs, currency management, global payouts, fraud risk management, card issuing, open banking, data reporting, reconciliation tools, in addition to a long list of value-add capabilities. Our revenue is largely recurring due to the mission-critical nature of our product and service offerings and deep integration of our payments technology into our customers’ enterprise resource planning systems. Additionally, our model has delivered rapid growth in eCommerce revenue. We believe the depth and breadth of our payment capabilities help our customers establish and expand their presence in emerging commerce channels across many markets. This enables us to develop long-standing relationships with our customers, which in turn drive strong retention and significant cross-selling opportunities.

(b)Revenue at constant currency, Revenue growth at constant currency, Organic revenue growth at constant currency, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted net income, Adjusted net income per diluted share and Adjusted EBITDA less capital expenditures are non-IFRS financial measures and non-IFRS ratios. These measures are not recognized measures under IFRS and do not have standardized meanings prescribed by IFRS and therefore may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. See “Non-IFRS and Other Financial Measures”.

Paya acquisition

On February 22, 2023, Nuvei acquired all of the issued and outstanding common shares of Paya Holdings Inc. ("Paya"), for a total cash consideration of approximately $1.4 billion, comprised of cash on hand, cash from our Reducing revolving credit facility (as defined below) and $9.7 million of the portion of replacement share-based awards that was considered part of the consideration transferred. The cash consideration included the settlement by Nuvei of seller-related payments of $51.9 million paid by Paya immediately prior to closing and thereby increased the calculated purchase price. Paya was a leading provider of integrated payment and commerce solutions in the United States. This acquisition is expected to accelerate our integrated payment strategy, diversify our business into key high-growth non-cyclical verticals with large addressable end markets and enhance the execution of our growth plan.

Credit facilities

On February 22, 2023 and in connection with the Paya acquisition, the Company entered into a new secured pari passu first lien reducing revolving credit facility ("Reducing revolving credit facility") of $800 million. Borrowings under the Reducing revolving credit facility bear interest, at our option, at either (a) Term SOFR (including a 0.1% credit spread adjustment) plus a margin ranging from 2.50% to 3.25% or (b) an alternate base rate plus a margin ranging from 1.50% to 2.25%, in each case, based on a first lien leverage ratio. Commencing on June 30, 2023, the commitments in respect of the Reducing revolving credit facility are automatically permanently reduced by $10 million on the last day of each fiscal quarter. The maturity of the Reducing revolving credit facility is September 28, 2025.

Normal Course Issuer Bid

On March 20, 2023, the Board approved a normal-course issuer bid ("NCIB") to purchase for cancellation a maximum of 5,556,604 Subordinate Voting Shares, representing approximately 10% of the Company’s Subordinate Voting Shares as at March 8, 2023. The Company is authorized to make purchases under the NCIB during the period from March 22, 2023 to March 21, 2024 in accordance with the requirements of the TSX and the Nasdaq and applicable securities laws. In March 2023, the Company also entered into an automatic share purchase plan ("ASPP") with a third-party broker for the Company to allow for the purchase of Subordinate Voting Shares under the NCIB during the Company's blackout periods. Under this agreement, the broker was authorized to repurchase Subordinate Voting Shares, without consultation with the Company, subject to predefined share price, defined time period and other limitations imposed by the Company and subject to rules and policies of the TSX and the Nasdaq and applicable securities laws, such as a daily purchase restriction. During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company repurchased and cancelled 1,350,000 Subordinate Voting Shares for a total consideration, including transaction costs, of $56.0 million.

Quarterly dividend

As previously announced on August 8, 2023 the Board of Directors approved a regular quarterly cash dividend of $0.10 per subordinate voting share and multiple voting share. On November 7, 2023, the Board of Directors approved and declared a cash dividend of $0.10 per subordinate voting share and multiple voting share payable for this quarter on December 7, 2023 to shareholders of record on November 20, 2023.

Non-IFRS and Other Financial Measures

Our Interim Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with IFRS, applicable to the preparation of interim financial statements, including International Accounting Standard ("IAS") 34, Interim Financial Reporting, as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board. The information presented in this MD&A includes non-IFRS financial measures, non-IFRS financial ratios and supplementary financial measures, namely Revenue at constant currency, Revenue growth at constant currency, Organic revenue at constant currency, Organic revenue growth at constant currency, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted net income, Adjusted net income per basic share, Adjusted net income per diluted share, Adjusted EBITDA less capital expenditures, Total volume, Organic total volume at constant currency and eCommerce volume. These measures are not recognized measures under IFRS and do not have standardized meanings prescribed by IFRS and therefore may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. Rather, these measures are provided as additional information to complement IFRS measures by providing further understanding of our results of operations from our perspective. Accordingly, these measures should not be considered in isolation nor as a substitute for analysis of the Company’s financial statements reported under IFRS. These measures are used to provide investors with additional insight of our operating performance and thus highlight trends in Nuvei’s business that may not otherwise be apparent when relying solely on IFRS measures. We also believe that securities analysts, investors and other interested parties frequently use these non-IFRS and other financial measures in the evaluation of issuers. We also use these measures to facilitate operating performance comparisons from period to period, to prepare annual operating budgets and forecasts and to determine components of management compensation. We believe these measures are important additional measures of our performance, primarily because they and similar measures are used widely among others in the payment technology industry as a means of evaluating a company’s underlying operating performance.

Non-IFRS Financial Measures

Revenue at constant currency: Revenue at constant currency means revenue, as determined by IFRS, adjusted for the impact of foreign currency exchange fluctuations. This measure helps provide insight on comparable revenue growth by removing the effect of changes in foreign currency exchange rates year-over-year. Foreign currency exchange impact in the current period is calculated using prior period quarterly average exchange rates applied to the current period foreign currency amounts.

Organic revenue at constant currency: Organic revenue at constant currency means revenue, as determined under IFRS, adjusted to exclude the revenue attributable to acquired businesses for a period of 12 months following their acquisition and excluding revenue attributable to divested businesses, adjusted for the impact of foreign currency exchange fluctuations. Foreign currency exchange impact in the current period is calculated using prior period quarterly average exchange rates applied to the current period foreign currency amounts. This measure helps provide insight on organic and acquisition-related growth and presents useful information about comparable revenue growth.

Adjusted EBITDA: We use Adjusted EBITDA as a means to evaluate operating performance, by eliminating the impact of non-operational or non-cash items. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income (loss) before finance costs (recovery), finance income, depreciation and amortization, income tax expense, acquisition, integration and severance costs, share-based payments and related payroll taxes, loss (gain) on foreign currency exchange, and legal settlement and other.

Adjusted EBITDA less capital expenditures: We use Adjusted EBITDA less capital expenditures (which we define as acquisition of intangible assets and property and equipment) as a supplementary indicator of our operating performance.

Adjusted net income: We use Adjusted net income as an indicator of business performance and profitability with our current tax and capital structure. Adjusted net income is defined as net income (loss) before acquisition, integration and severance costs, share-based payments and related payroll taxes, loss (gain) on foreign currency exchange, amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets, and the related income tax expense or recovery for these items. Adjusted net income also excludes change in redemption value of liability-classified common and preferred shares, change in fair value of share repurchase liability and accelerated amortization of deferred transaction costs and legal settlement and other.

Non-IFRS Financial Ratios

Revenue growth at constant currency: Revenue growth at constant currency means the year-over-year change in Revenue at constant currency divided by reported revenue in the prior period. We use Revenue growth at constant currency to provide better comparability of revenue trends year-over-year, without the impact of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates.

Organic revenue growth at constant currency: Organic revenue growth at constant currency means the year-over-year change in Organic revenue at constant currency divided by comparable Organic revenue in the prior period. We use Organic revenue growth at constant currency to provide better comparability of revenue trends year-over-year, without the impact of acquisitions, divestitures and fluctuations in foreign currency exchanges rates.

Adjusted net income per basic share and per diluted share: We use Adjusted net income per basic share and per diluted share as an indicator of performance and profitability of our business on a per share basis. Adjusted net income per basic share and per diluted share means Adjusted net income less net income attributable to non-controlling interest divided by the basic and diluted weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. The number of share-based awards used in the diluted weighted average number of common shares outstanding in the Adjusted net income per diluted share calculation is determined using the treasury stock method as permitted under IFRS.

Supplementary Financial Measures

We monitor the following key performance indicators to help us evaluate our business, measure our performance, identify trends affecting our business, formulate business plans and make strategic decisions. Our key performance indicators may be calculated in a manner that differs from similar key performance indicators used by other companies.

Total volume and eCommerce volume: We believe Total volume and eCommerce volume are indicators of performance of our business. Total volume and similar measures are used widely among others in the payments industry as a means of evaluating a company’s performance. We define Total volume as the total dollar value of transactions processed in the period by customers under contractual agreement with us. eCommerce volume is the portion of Total volume for which the transaction did not occur at a physical location. Total volume and eCommerce volume do not represent revenue earned by us. Total volume includes acquiring volume, where we are in the flow of funds in the settlement transaction cycle, gateway/technology volume, where we provide our gateway/technology services but are not in the flow of funds in the settlement transaction cycle, as well as the total dollar value of transactions processed relating to APMs and payouts. Since our revenue is primarily sales volume and transaction-based, generated from merchants’ daily sales and through various fees for value-added services provided to our customers, fluctuations in Total volume will generally impact our revenue.

Organic total volume at constant currency: Organic total volume at constant currency is used as an indicator of performance of our business on a more comparable basis. This measure helps provide insight on organic and acquisition-related growth and presents useful information about comparable Total volume growth. This measure also helps provide better comparability of business trends year-over-year, without the impact of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. Organic total volume at constant currency means Total volume excluding Total volume attributable to acquired businesses for a period of 12 months following their acquisition and excluding Total volume attributable to divested businesses, adjusted for the impact of foreign currency exchange fluctuations. Foreign currency exchange impact in the current period is calculated using prior period quarterly average exchange rates applied to the current period foreign currency amounts.

Summary of Factors Affecting Our Performance

We believe that the growth and future success of our business depends on many factors, including those described below. While each of these factors presents significant opportunities for our business, they also pose important challenges, some of which are discussed below as well as in the section entitled “Risks Relating to Our Business and Industry” of our AIF for the year ended December 31, 2022, and in our other filings with the Canadian securities regulatory authorities and the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, all of which can be found on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca and on EDGAR at www.sec.gov.

Growing with our Existing Customers. Our success is directly correlated with our customers’ success. We focus on the high-growth markets within omnichannel payments and intend to grow alongside our existing customers as they grow their business and expand into new markets within selected high-growth end-markets, including online retail, online marketplaces, digital goods and services, regulated online gaming, social gaming, financial services, utilities, healthcare, non-profit and travel. eCommerce represents the majority of our Total volume with eCommerce volume accounting for 89% of our Total volume in the nine months ended September 30, 2023. Key characteristics of these verticals are inherent growth, longevity and propensity to operate globally.

In addition, our existing customers represent a significant opportunity for us to cross-sell and up-sell products and services with limited incremental sales and marketing expenses. As our customers increase their business volume, we can offer more solutions from our Native Commerce Platform. Our future revenue growth and achieving and maintaining profitability is dependent upon our ability to maintain existing customer relationships and to continue to expand our customers’ use of our comprehensive suite of solutions.

Acquiring New Customers. Our future revenue growth will also largely depend upon the effectiveness of our sales and marketing efforts. We have significant sales and marketing experience in capturing and serving SMBs and third-party partners in North America and large enterprises in Europe. We intend to leverage this experience and enable customer base expansion by targeting large enterprises in North America, with a focus in the eCommerce channels. Key to our success in achieving customer base expansion is continued investment in marketing and in our direct sales team and further leveraging our broad and diversified network of partners.

Expanding in Regions Internationally. We plan to expand and deepen our footprint in geographies where we have an emerging presence today, such as Asia Pacific, MEA and Latin America. Our expansion has also been driven by the needs of our customers. For each new country where we seek to expand, we focus on understanding the needs of the local market and invest to develop relationships, while gaining an appreciation for the appropriate local regulatory and compliance frameworks. We believe this will help our growth strategy in achieving global presence and connectivity across all targeted markets.

Investing in our Technology and Product Portfolio. We believe our technology-first culture enables us to enhance our offerings to remain at the forefront of payments innovation. Specifically, our Native Commerce Platform enables us to deliver comprehensive payments and technology solutions to power a convenient and secure transaction experience for our customers and their customers. Further investment in this platform is necessary to expand and keep our portfolio of services to our customers technologically current. Close collaboration with our customers through ongoing communication and feedback loops is also key, as it enables a better design and delivery of solutions that meet their specific and evolving needs.

Adding new use cases and verticals to our technology. We are adding new use cases and verticals to our technology through acquisitions. For example, with the acquisition of Paya, we are now bringing our technology and expertise to under-penetrated verticals such as healthcare and non-profit. By adding these use cases to our existing offering, we are growing our total addressable market.

Selectively Pursuing and Successfully Executing Acquisitions. We have in the past augmented, and intend in the future to augment, our capabilities and organic growth with strategic acquisitions. For example, on February 22, 2023, we acquired Paya. Critical to our success is continuing to be highly disciplined in integrating acquisitions in a manner that allows us to fulfill the potential that these acquisitions bring.

Maintaining and Adding to our Acquiring Bank and Payment Network Relationships. We have built strong relationships with acquiring banks and the payment networks globally. The maintenance and/or expansion of these relationships and strong collaboration on maintaining adequate procedures in monitoring the risk profile of our customer base will be a key enabler in the pursuit of our growth strategies.

Adapting to Regulatory Changes. The nature of our product and service offerings necessitates that we adhere to strict regulatory regimes in the countries where we operate. Our operational teams are fully versed in the varying regulatory requirements. As regulations change or as we enter new markets with different regulatory requirements, we will continue to upskill and modify, our compliance capabilities as appropriate, such as our customer underwriting, risk management, know your customer and anti-money laundering capabilities, in as seamless as possible a manner to minimize disruption to our customers’ businesses.

Digital assets and cryptocurrencies. We generate a small portion of our revenue from customers operating in the digital assets and cryptocurrencies industry. Cryptocurrencies have historically and currently exhibit significant price volatility that have and could continue to adversely affect the operations of our customers in that industry, and, in turn, our results of operations and profitability. As a result, the Company is exposed to volatility in the cryptocurrency industry generally, including in sectors of the cryptocurrency industry that do not directly apply to the Company’s payment services business but that are integral to the cryptocurrency industry as a whole. Cryptocurrency market prices depend, directly or indirectly, on the prices set on exchanges and other trading venues, which are new and, in most cases, largely unregulated as compared to established, regulated exchanges for securities, derivatives and other currencies.

Foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations. Exchange rate fluctuations may negatively affect our results of operations. Our presentation currency is the US dollar. We derive the largest portion of our revenues in US dollars and the largest proportion of our expenses in US dollars. Foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations have and may continue to negatively affect our revenue that is denominated in currency other than the US dollar. To the extent that we have significant revenues denominated in foreign currencies, any strengthening of the US dollar would reduce our revenue and any weakening of the US dollar would increase our revenue as measured in US dollars.

Middle East conflict. The current Middle East conflict may affect our business as we conduct some of our operations (which excludes production) and have employees, including some technology personnel, in the region. Since the beginning of the conflict on October 7, 2023, we have not seen any impact to our ongoing operations and we do not expect the situation to materially adversely affect our business. We will continue to monitor these developments while supporting the safety and well-being of our employees.

Key Components of Results of Operations

Revenue

Merchant Transaction and Processing Services. Revenues from our merchant transaction and processing services are derived primarily from eCommerce payment processing services, and stems from relationships with individual customers. Additionally, transaction and processing services revenues stem from contracts with financial service providers and other merchant acquirers. The contracts stipulate the types of services and set forth how fees will be incurred and calculated. Merchant transaction and processing services revenues are generated from processing electronic payment transactions for customers.

Our transaction and processing services revenue is primarily comprised of (a) fees calculated based on a percentage of the monetary value of transactions processed; (b) fees calculated based on the number of transactions processed; (c) service fees; or (d) some combination thereof that are associated with transaction and processing services.

We present revenue net of the interchange fees charged by the card issuing financial institutions and the fees charged by the payment networks when it is determined that we are acting as an agent and do not have the ability to direct the use of and obtain substantially all of the benefits of these services.

Other Revenue. We may sell hardware (“point-of-sale equipment”) as part of our contracts with customers. Hardware consists of terminals or gateway devices. We do not manufacture hardware but purchase hardware from third party vendors and hold the hardware in inventory until purchased by a customer.

For more information on our revenue recognition policies, refer to Note 3 of the audited annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2022.

Cost of Revenue

Processing Costs. Processing costs consist of fees paid to processing suppliers. When we are the primary obligor providing payment processing services, we record processing fees paid to processing suppliers as a cost of revenue. If we are not the primary obligor providing payment processing services, processing fees are netted from the revenue recorded for such transactions and we do not record separate processing fees as a cost of revenue. Processing costs also include losses resulting from our transaction guarantee solutions.

Costs of Goods Sold. Costs of goods sold consist primarily of costs associated with selling point-of-sale equipment, such as the cost of acquiring the equipment, including purchase price, expenses associated with a third-party fulfillment company, shipping, handling and inventory adjustments.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Our selling, general and administrative expenses primarily represent the amounts associated with commissions, employee compensation, share-based payments, and depreciation and amortization.

Commissions. Commissions are comprised of incentives paid to third party partners for referring customers.

Employee Compensation. Employee compensation consists of salaries, incentives and benefits (excluding share-based payments which are disclosed separately) earned by our employees. Employee compensation includes costs related to the various functions of the Company, including technology, sales and marketing, operations, as well as various business support functions.

Share-Based Payments. Share-based payments consist of our equity-settled share-based compensation earned by our employees, directors and consultants.

Depreciation. Depreciation consists of depreciation of property and equipment, primarily point-of-sale equipment, office and computer equipment, furniture and fixtures, leasehold improvements and right of use assets over buildings. We calculate depreciation using the straight-line method over the useful life of the relevant asset or over the remaining lease term, as applicable.

Amortization. Amortization consists primarily of amortization of intangible assets, which consist of internally generated and externally purchased software that is used in providing processing services to customers. It also includes trademarks, technologies, distributor commission buyouts and partner and merchant relationships that are acquired by the Company. Distributor commission buyouts represent amounts paid to independent sales organizations to buy out their rights to future residual commission payments. These intangible assets are amortized on a straight-line basis over the course of the relevant asset’s useful life.

Selling, general and administrative expenses also consist of professional fees, transaction losses, contingent consideration adjustments and other expenses.

We anticipate increases in selling, general and administrative expenses as we invest in our business such as our sales force and brand awareness. Please refer to the section entitled “Risks Relating to Regulation” of our AIF.

Net Finance Costs

Net finance costs primarily represent amounts associated with:

Interest on Loans and Borrowings. Interest expense consists primarily of interest incurred on term loans outstanding under the credit facilities.

Change in Fair Value of Share Repurchase Liability. When the Company enters into an automatic share purchase plan, it recognizes a share repurchase liability. The share repurchase liability is a financial liability accounted for at fair value through profit or loss, and as such, is remeasured at fair market value until it is settled or upon termination of the agreement, with fair value changes being recognized in finance costs.

Interest Income. Interest income consists of interest received on cash and cash equivalents held by the Company.

Loss (Gain) on Foreign Currency Exchange

Loss (gain) on foreign currency exchange results from monetary items that are held by the Company or its subsidiaries in a currency different than its functional currency. These items are translated into the functional currency using the exchange rates prevailing at the date of the transactions or when the items are re-measured at the end of the reporting period. The resulting gains and losses subsequently being recognized are recorded in loss (gain) on foreign currency exchange.

Income Tax Expense

Income tax expense comprises current and deferred taxes. Current and deferred taxes are recognized in profit or loss except to the extent that they relate to a business combination, or items recognized directly in equity or in other comprehensive income (loss).

	$	$	$	%
Revenue	304,852	197,146	107,706	55

For the three months ended September 30, 2023, revenue increased by $107.7 million or 55% as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2022. The increase in revenue mainly reflects the contribution of revenue from Paya of $76.2 million, organic revenue growth and favorable change in foreign currency exchange rates year-over-year by $5.0 million. For the three months ended September 30, 2023, Organic revenue at constant currency was $223.3 million and Organic revenue growth at constant currency was 13%. See "Non-IFRS and Other Financial Measures".

Total volume increased to $48.2 billion for the three months ended September 30, 2023 from $28.0 billion in the three months ended September 30, 2022, an increase of $20.2 billion or 72% mainly due to the contribution from Paya.

For the three months ended September 30, 2023, selling, general and administrative expenses increased by $68.1 million or 46% as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2022 primarily due to the following:

Commissions. During the three months ended September 30, 2023, commission expense increased by $31.6 million or 113% as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2022. The increase was primarily due to the contribution from Paya.

Employee Compensation. During the three months ended September 30, 2023, employee compensation increased by $9.0 million or 21% as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2022. The employee compensation includes costs related to the various functions of the Company, including technology, sales and marketing, human resources, and administration. The increase year-over-year mainly reflects higher headcount due to the Paya acquisition.

Share-based Payments. For the three months ended September 30, 2023, share-based payments slightly increased by $0.2 million as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2022. Share-based payments represented 11% of revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2023 compared to 17% of revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2022.

Depreciation and Amortization. Depreciation of property and equipment expenses and amortization of intangible assets for the three months ended September 30, 2023 increased by $10.3 million or 39% as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2022. The increase was mainly due to higher amortization of intangible assets acquired as part of the Paya acquisition.

Professional Fees. For the three months ended September 30, 2023, professional fees increased by $1.3 million compared to the three months ended September 30, 2022. The increase mainly reflected fees related to ongoing acquisition integration activities.

Other. For the three months ended September 30, 2023, other expenses increased by $15.6 million compared to the three months ended September 30, 2022. The increase was mainly due to incremental costs related to the contribution from Paya, as well as higher technology and marketing expenses.

During the three months ended September 30, 2023, net finance cost increased by $23.6 million as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2022. The increase was primarily due to the following items:

Interest on advances to third parties and interest income. The decrease in finance income of $1.4 million was mainly due to lower interest income due to lower cash and cash equivalents balance during the three months ended September 30, 2023 as a result of the Paya acquisition, partially offset by the higher interest rate environment.

Interest on Loans and Borrowings. The increase of $22.0 million was mainly due a higher debt balance and amortization of financing cost resulting from the Paya acquisition and a higher interest rate environment in the three months ended September 30, 2023.

Loss on foreign currency exchange for the three months ended September 30, 2023 was $13.0 million compared to a gain of $12.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022. This was mainly due to currency exposure related to U.S. denominated debt and cash and cash equivalents held in our Canadian subsidiary.

Income tax expense for the three months ended September 30, 2023 was $9.7 million on net loss before income tax of $8.5 million, representing an effective tax rate of 114.4% for the period. The effective income tax rate was different than the Canadian parent's statutory income tax rate of 26.5% because it includes non-taxable foreign exchange losses and share-based payments of $34.0 million recognized in the three months ended September 30, 2023 that are non-deductible in most jurisdictions, as well as the impact of lower income tax rates in other jurisdictions.

Income tax expense for the three months ended September 30, 2022 was $5.4 million on income before income tax of $18.4 million, representing an effective tax rate of 29.3% for the period. The effective income tax rate was higher than the Canadian parent's statutory income tax rate of 26.5% because it includes the unfavorable impact of share-based payments of $33.8 million recognized in the three months ended September 30, 2022 that are non-deductible in most jurisdictions, partially offset by the favorable impact of lower income tax rates in other jurisdictions and non-taxable foreign exchange gains.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, revenue increased by $245.4 million or 39% as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The increase in revenue mainly reflects the contribution of revenue from Paya of $182.3 million and organic revenue growth.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, selling, general and administrative expenses increased by $191.2 million or 43% as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2022 primarily due to the following:

Commissions. During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, commission expense increased by $72.7 million or 85% as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The increase was primarily due to the contribution from Paya.

Share-based Payments. For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, share-based payments increased slightly by $1.8 million as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2022.

Depreciation of property and equipment expenses and amortization of intangible assets for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 increased by $20.4 million or 26% as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The increase was primarily due to higher amortization of intangible assets acquired as part of the Paya acquisition.

Professional Fees. For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, professional fees increased by $28.9 million or 146% as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2022.

Other. For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, other expenses increased by $34.5 million compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The increase was mostly due to incremental contribution from Paya as well as higher technology and marketing expenses.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, net finance cost increased by $61.6 million as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The increase was primarily due to the following items:

Interest on advances to third parties and interest income. The increase in finance income of $2.6 million is mainly due to an increase in interest income due to higher cash and cash equivalents balance in 2023 until the Paya acquisition, as well as the relatively higher interest rate environment.

Interest on Loans and Borrowings. The increase of $58.2 million was mainly due to higher debt balance and amortization of financing cost resulting from the Paya acquisition and a higher interest rate environment in the nine months ended September 30, 2023.

Change in Fair Value of Share Repurchase Liability. The remeasurement loss of $0.6 million associated with the share repurchase liability in the nine months ended September 30, 2023 is due to an increase in share price between the ASPP start date and the completion of the share repurchase under the ASPP in March 2023, which resulted in a higher fair value measurement of the financial liability. The gain of $5.7 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2022 is due to the decrease in share price between the ASPP start date and the completion of the share repurchase under the ASPP in May 2022.

Loss on foreign currency exchange for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 was $0.5 million compared to a gain of $20.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. This was mainly due to currency exposure related to U.S. denominated debt and cash and cash equivalents held in our Canadian subsidiary.

Income tax expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 was $16.0 million on income before income tax of $1.2 million. The effective income tax rate was higher than the Canadian parent's statutory income tax rate of 26.5% because it includes the unfavorable impact of share-based payments of $105.5 million recognized in the nine months ended September 30, 2023 that are non-deductible for income tax purposes in most jurisdictions and the impact of acquisition costs that are not deductible for income tax purposes, and was partially offset by the favorable impact of lower income tax rates in other jurisdictions.

Income tax expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 was $19.8 million on income before income tax of $72.4 million, representing an effective tax rate of 27.4% for the period. The effective income tax rate was higher than the Canadian parent's statutory income tax rate of 26.5% because it includes the unfavorable impact of share-based payments of $103.7 million recognized in the nine months ended September 30, 2022 that are non-deductible for tax purposes in certain jurisdictions, partially offset by favorable impact of lower income tax rates in other jurisdictions, a non-taxable gain upon the satisfaction of a share repurchase liability and non-taxable foreign exchange gains.

Quarterly Trend Analysis

The quarterly increase in revenue and cost of revenue in the last eight quarters was primarily due to Total volume organic growth, as well as contribution from the acquisition of Paya in the first quarter of 2023.

The quarterly increase in selling, general and administrative expenses in the last eight quarters was primarily due to organic growth, contribution from Paya, as well as higher share-based payments.

Quarterly net income in 2022 was impacted by the increased volatility in the foreign currency exchange rate compared with 2021. Net income for the three months ended March 31, 2023 was impacted by acquisition costs of $15.5 million for the Paya acquisition as well as fees related to ongoing acquisition integration activities. Net income for the three months ended June 30 and September 30, 2023 reflects higher finance cost. Net income for the three months ended September 30, 2023 decreased sequentially, mainly reflecting unfavorable impact from foreign exchange of $24.1 million.

Trade and other receivables and payables. The increase mainly reflects the contribution from Paya.

Intangible assets and goodwill. The increase was mainly due to the Paya acquisition.

Total liabilities. The increase in total liabilities mainly reflects the Reducing revolving credit facility entered into as part of the Paya acquisition.

Deficit. The increase in deficit for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 of $55.8 million is explained by the portion of the repurchased shares and the portion of the share repurchase liability recognized in deficit for a total of $22.1 million, the net loss attributable to shareholders of $19.7 million and the dividend declared of $14.0 million.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Overview

Our financial condition and liquidity are and will continue to be influenced by a variety of factors, including:

•Our ability to generate cash flows from our operations;

•The level of our outstanding indebtedness and the interest we are obligated to pay on this indebtedness; and

•Our capital expenditure requirements.

The general objectives of our capital management strategy are to ensure sufficient liquidity to pursue our organic growth strategy and undertake selective acquisitions, while maintaining a strong credit profile and a capital structure that maintains total leverage ratio within the limits set in the credit facilities.

Our primary source of liquidity is cash from operations, debt and equity financing. Our principal liquidity needs include investment in our selective acquisitions and product and technology, as well as operations, selling, general and administrative expenses and debt service.

Our capital is composed of net debt and shareholders’ equity. Net debt consists of interest-bearing debt less cash and cash equivalents. Our use of capital is to finance business acquisitions, working capital requirements and capital expenditures.

We fund those requirements out of our internally generated cash flows and funds drawn from our long-term credit facilities or via equity financings.

The primary measure we use to monitor our financial leverage is our total leverage ratio, defined as the ratio of consolidated net debt outstanding, calculated as long-term debt less unrestricted cash, to consolidated adjusted EBITDA, calculated in accordance with the terms of the credit agreement for our credit facility. Under our Amended and restated credit facility, we must maintain a total leverage ratio of less than or equal to 7.00 : 1.00 for the current period, with the ratio decreasing year over year every October 1st, until it reaches 6.50 : 1.00 for the period after September 30, 2023.

Under the Reducing revolving credit facility, we must maintain a total leverage ratio of less than or equal to 4.50 : 1.00 for test period before September 30, 2023, and with the ratio decreasing by 0.25 : 1.00 on October 1, 2023 and every six months thereafter, until it reaches 3.50 : 1.00 on March 31, 2025. We must also maintain its interest coverage ratio above 2.50 : 1.00. The interest coverage ratio considers the Company's consolidated adjusted EBITDA, calculated in accordance with the terms of the credit facility agreement, to consolidated cash interest expense.

As at September 30, 2023, the Company was in compliance with all applicable covenants.

We believe that the Company's available cash and cash equivalents, cash flows generated from operations, loans and borrowings will be sufficient to meet our projected operating and capital expenditure requirements for at least the next 12 months.

Credit Facilities

Our Amended and restated credit facility is comprised of term loan facilities of $500.5 million. Outstanding principal of the term loan is payable quarterly at an annual rate of 1.00% and the remaining balance will be payable at maturity on September 28, 2025. We also has an undrawn revolving credit facility of $385.0 million as of September 30, 2023. The maturity of the revolving credit facility is September 28, 2024.

On February 22, 2023, concurrent with the completion of the Paya acquisition, we entered into a Reducing revolving credit facility in an amount of $800.0 million. Commencing on June 30, 2023, the commitments in respect of this facility will automatically be permanently reduced by $10 million on the last day of each fiscal quarter. The outstanding balance of the Reducing revolving credit facility was $743.0 million as at September 30, 2023. The maturity date of this facility is September 28, 2025.

As at September 30, 2023, we had letters of credit issued totaling $56.2 million ($46.1 million as at December 31, 2022). The Letters of credit do not reduce the amount that can be drawn on our revolving credit facility.

For more information on the Company's loans and borrowings, refer to Note 7 of our Interim Financial Statements and Note 12 of the audited annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2022.

Cash Flows From Operating Activities

For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, $182.3 million of cash was generated from operating activities compared to $193.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The decrease was mainly driven by higher interest paid on indebtedness of $54.2 million and increase in income tax paid of $8.9 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2023. This was substantially offset by the increase in operating profit.

Cash Flows Used in Investing Activities

For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, $1,471.3 million of cash was used in investing activities. This resulted primarily from the cash consideration, net of cash acquired, for the Paya acquisition of $1,379.8 million. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, $33.2 million of cash was used in investing activities, mainly due to the acquisition of intangible assets.

Cash Flows From (Used in) Financing Activities

For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, $658.3 million of cash was generated from financing activities mainly reflecting the borrowing under the Reducing revolving credit facility. This was partially offset by $56.0 million used to repurchase and cancel approximately 1.4 million Subordinate Voting Shares under the NCIB as well as mandatory and voluntary repayments on the credit facilities of $112.8 million and a dividend paid to shareholders of $13.9 million. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, $109.2 million of cash was used to repurchase and cancel approximately 1.2 million Subordinate Voting Shares under the NCIB. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, financing activities also reflected the purchase of a non-controlling interest for a cash consideration of $39.8 million.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We have no off-balance sheet arrangements that have, or are reasonably likely to have, a current or future material effect on our consolidated financial condition, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures, or capital resources. We may, from time to time, be contingently liable with respect to litigation and claims that arise in the normal course of operations.

Related Party Transactions and Executive Compensation

We have no related party transactions other than those presented in Note 14 in the Interim Financial Statements.

Financial Instruments and Other Instruments

In the ordinary course of its business activities, we are exposed to various market risks that are beyond our control, including fluctuations in foreign exchange rates and interest rates, and that may have an adverse effect on the value of Nuvei's financial assets and liabilities, future cash flows and profit. Our policy with respect to these market risks is to assess the potential of experiencing losses and the consolidated impact thereof, and to mitigate these market risks as is deemed appropriate. A more detailed description of these risks and how the Company manages them, is provided in the section titled "Financial Instruments and Other Instruments" of the Company's 2022 Annual MD&A. The Company's exposure to and management of these risks have not changed materially since December 31, 2022, other than as noted within this MD&A. Please refer to the “Risks Relating to Our Business and Industry” section of the AIF for the year ended December 31, 2022 for additional information about the material risks we face in our business.

Credit and Concentration Risk

Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Company if a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations. Credit risk arises principally from our cash and cash equivalents, trade and other receivables, segregated funds and processor deposits. The carrying amounts of these financial assets represent the maximum credit exposure.

Cash, Segregated Funds and Processor Deposits

The credit risk related to financial institutions that hold cash and cash equivalents, segregated funds and processor deposits is managed as we seek to maintain funds with highly-rated financial institutions and to maintain a diversified group of financial institutions. We had no adverse impact to date from the U.S. regional bank failures.

Trade and Other Receivables

We provide credit to our customers in the normal course of business. We evaluate the creditworthiness of the corresponding counterparties at least at the end of each reporting period and on a specific circumstance basis. Our extension of credit to customers involves considerable judgment and is based on an evaluation of each customer’s financial condition and credit history. We have established various internal controls designed to mitigate credit risk, including credit limits and payment terms that are reviewed and approved by the Company. Any impaired trade receivables are mostly due from customers that are experiencing financial difficulties.

There is a concentration of credit risk as of September 30, 2023, with respect to our receivables from our main processor and sponsor banks in North America, which represented approximately 29% (26% as at December 31, 2022) of trade and other receivables. The increase is mainly due to the contribution from Paya.

Foreign Currency Risk

We are exposed to the financial risk related to the fluctuation of foreign exchange rates and the degrees of volatility of those rates. Foreign currency risk is limited to the portion of our business transactions denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar. Fluctuations related to foreign exchange rates could cause unforeseen fluctuations in our operating results. We do not currently enter into arrangements to hedge foreign currency risk.

Interest Rate Risk

Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market rates. We do not account for any fixed interest-rate financial assets or financial liabilities at fair value through profit and loss.

All other loans and borrowings bear interest at floating rates, and we are therefore exposed to the cash flow risk resulting from interest rate fluctuations.

In the three months ended September 30, 2023, we entered into an interest rate swap agreement with a notional amount of $300 million and a fixed interest rate of 4.67% maturing September 30, 2026 to hedge a portion of our future variable interest payments. This derivative is carried at fair value through other comprehensive income as it was designated as a hedging instrument in a hedge relationship. The derivative financial liability is presented in the other current liabilities in our Consolidated Financial Statements of financial position.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The preparation of the Interim Financial Statements in conformity with IFRS requires us to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates. Estimates, judgments and assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis and are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized prospectively.

Critical judgments made in applying accounting policies that have the most significant effects on the amounts recognized in the Interim Financial Statements include the following:

Revenue Recognition. The identification of revenue-generating contracts with customers, the identification of performance obligations, the determination of the transaction price and allocations between identified performance obligations, the use of appropriate revenue recognition method for each performance obligation and the measure of progress for performance obligations satisfied over time are the main aspects of the revenue recognition process, all of which require the exercise of judgment and use of assumptions. In addition, we have applied judgment in assessing the principal versus agent considerations for our transaction and processing services.

Fair Value of Share-based Payment Transactions. We recognized compensation expense as a result of equity-settled share-based payment transactions which are valued by reference to the fair value of the related instruments. Fair value of options granted that did not contain a market performance condition was estimated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The risk-free interest rate is based on the yield of a zero coupon U.S. government security with a maturity equal to the expected life of the option from the date of the grant. The assumption of expected volatility is based on the average historical volatility of comparable companies for the period immediately preceding the option grant. We use an expected dividend yield in the option-pricing model.

When granting share-based payment compensation with performance conditions, we assess whether those performance conditions are market or non-market conditions. Market conditions are taken into account in the fair value estimate on the grant date, using a Monte Carlo simulation and this fair value is not revised subsequently. For non-market conditions, we estimate the expected outcome of the performance targets and revise those estimates and related expense until the final outcome is known.

When issuing share-based payments in exchange for services rendered by an external party, the Company estimates the fair value of the instruments granted by reference to the fair value of services rendered by the external party, if the services can be measured reliably, instead of the fair value of the equity instrument granted.

Provisions for Losses on Merchant Accounts. Disputes between a cardholder and a merchant arise periodically, primarily as a result of customer dissatisfaction with merchandise quality or merchant services. Such disputes may not be resolved in the merchant’s favor. In these cases, the transaction amount is refunded to the customer by the card issuing financial institution, but the financial institution is refunded by us. We then charge back to the merchant the amount refunded to the financial institution. As such, we are exposed to credit risk in relation to the merchant since we assume the repayment to the merchant’s customer for the full amount of the transaction even if the merchant has insufficient funds to reimburse us. A provision for losses on merchant accounts is maintained to absorb unrecoverable chargebacks for merchant transactions that have been previously processed and on which revenues have been recorded. The provision for losses on merchant accounts specifically comprises identifiable provisions for merchant transactions for which losses can be estimated. We evaluate the risk for such transactions and estimate the loss for disputed transactions based primarily on historical experience and other relevant factors. We analyze the adequacy of the provision for losses on merchant accounts in each reporting period.

Determining the Fair Value of Identifiable Intangible Assets Following a Business Combination. The Company uses valuation techniques to determine the fair value of identifiable intangible assets acquired in a business combination, which are generally based on a forecast of total expected future net discounted cash flows. These valuations are linked closely to the assumptions made by management regarding the future performance of the related assets and the discount rate applied as it would be assumed by a market participant.

Recoverable Amount of Goodwill. Our impairment test for goodwill is based on internal estimates of fair value less costs of disposal calculations and uses valuation models such as the discounted cash flows model. Key assumptions on which we have based our determination of fair value less costs of disposal include estimated sales volumes, input costs, and selling, general and administrative expenses as well as the multiples applied to forecasted Adjusted EBITDA. These estimates, including the methodology used, can have a material impact on the respective values and ultimately the amount of any goodwill impairment.

Recoverable Amount of Tax Balances for Recognition of Tax Assets. Deferred income tax assets reflect our estimate of operations of future fiscal years, timing of reversal of temporary differences and tax rates on the date of reversals, which may well change depending on governments’ fiscal policies. We must also assess whether it is more likely than not that deferred income tax assets will be realized and determine whether a valuation allowance is required on all or a portion of deferred income tax assets.

New Accounting Standards and Interpretations Adopted or Issued But Not Yet Adopted

Amendments to IAS 12 Income taxes

These amendments provide a temporary relief from the requirement to recognize deferred income taxes arising from the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development's ("OECD") enacted or substantively enacted Pillar Two Model rules. The Company has applied these amendments.

There are no significant updates to the standards and interpretations issued but not yet adopted described in the December 31, 2022 annual audited consolidated financial statements.

Risk Factors

In addition to all other information set out in this MD&A, our Interim Financial Statements, and our audited annual consolidated financial statements and notes for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022, the specific risk factors that could materially adversely affect us and/or our business, financial condition and results of operations are disclosed under "Risk Factors" in our Annual Information Form dated March 8, 2023. Other risks and uncertainties that we do not presently consider to be material, or of which we are not presently aware, may also become important factors that affect our future business, financial condition and results of operations. The occurrence of any of these risks could materially and adversely affect our business, prospects, financial condition, results of operations or cash flow.

Controls and Procedures

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer are responsible for establishing and maintaining disclosure controls and procedures (as defined by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act) for the Company to ensure that material information relating to the Company, including its consolidated subsidiaries, that is required to be made known to the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer by others within the Company and disclosed by the Company in reports filed or submitted by it under securities legislation (including the Exchange Act) is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in securities legislation (including the Commission’s rules and forms); and (ii) accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. The Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, along with management, have evaluated and concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as at September 30, 2023.

Internal Controls over Financial Reporting

Management of the Company, under the supervision of the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board. Management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, have assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting in accordance with Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”). Based on this assessment, management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, have concluded that the Company’s internal control over financial reporting was effective as at September 30, 2023.

Change in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting

There were no changes to our internal controls over financial reporting during the three months ended September 30, 2023, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal controls over financial reporting.

Limitations of Controls and Procedures

Management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, believes that any disclosure controls and procedures or internal controls over financial reporting, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, they cannot provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been prevented or detected. These inherent limitations include the reality that judgments in decision making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple errors or mistakes. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by unauthorized override of the control. The design of any system of controls is also based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Accordingly, because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.

Limitations on Scope of Design

The scope of design of internal controls over financial reporting and disclosure controls and procedures excluded the controls, policies, and procedures of Paya which was acquired on February 22, 2023. The Paya contribution to our consolidated statements of profit or loss and comprehensive income or loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 was revenue of $182.3 million to our consolidated revenue of $868.4 million, and was net income of $21.1 million to our consolidated net loss of $14.8 million. Additionally, as at September 30, 2023, Paya's current assets and current liabilities, non-current assets and non-current liabilities represented respectively 23%, 19%, 44% and 9% of the consolidated group. The amounts recognized for the assets acquired and liabilities assumed as at the date of this acquisition are described in Note 4 of the Interim Financial Statements.
