(NYSE: EVTC) (“Evertec”, the “Company”, “we” or “our”) today announced results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2024. Second Quarter 2024 Highlights Revenue increased 27% to $212.0 million GAAP Net Income attributable to common shareholders increased 13% to $31.9 million and increased 14% to $0.49 per diluted share Adjusted EBITDA increased 16% to $86.1 million and Adjusted earnings per common share increased 17% to $0.83 Completed the outstanding accelerated share repurchase on July 9, 2024. Mac Schuessler, President and Chief Executive Officer stated, "Our second quarter results exceeded our expectations, our business in Puerto Rico continues to perform strongly and our results in Latin America are encouraging as we continue to work through the Sinqia integration." Second Quarter 2024 Results Revenue. Total revenue for the quarter ended June 30, 2024 was $212.0 million, an increase of 27% compared with $167.1 million in the prior year quarter, reflecting the contribution from the Sinqia acquisition and organic growth across all of the Company's segments. Merchant acquiring revenue growth was a result of an improvement in the overall spread and sales volume growth. Continued growth in ATH Movil Business and increased transaction volumes drove the revenue increase in Payments Puerto Rico. Latin America revenue benefited from the contribution from the Sinqia acquisition as well as continued organic growth across the region. Business Solutions revenue reflected an increase mainly driven by a project related one-time revenue impact. Net Income attributable to common shareholders. For the quarter ended June 30, 2024, GAAP Net Income attributable to common shareholders was $31.9 million, or $0.49 per diluted share, an increase of $3.7 million or $0.06 per diluted share as compared to the prior year, driven by the increase in revenues and a decrease in income tax expense, partially offset by increased expenses, an increase in interest expense resulting from the incremental debt raised to finance the Sinqia acquisition and an increase in depreciation and amortization expense. Costs of revenues reflected an increase in personnel costs, mostly due to Sinqia, and, to a lesser extent, an increase in cloud services and professional fees. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased also mainly due to the addition of Sinqia headcount. Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin. For the quarter ended June 30, 2024, Adjusted EBITDA was $86.1 million, an increase of $11.6 million when compared to the prior year quarter, driven by the increase in revenues and the contribution from the Sinqia acquisition. Adjusted EBITDA margin (Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of total revenues) was 40.6%, a decrease of approximately 400 basis points from the prior year. The decrease in Adjusted EBITDA margin reflects the addition of Sinqia which contributes at a lower margin. Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted earnings per common share. For the quarter ended June 30, 2024, Adjusted Net Income was $53.8 million, an increase of $7.2 million compared to $46.6 million in the prior year. The increase was driven by the higher Adjusted EBITDA and a decrease in non-GAAP tax expense, partially offset by higher operating depreciation and amortization and higher cash interest expense, due to the incremental debt raised for the Sinqia acquisition. Adjusted earnings per common share was $0.83, an increase of $0.12 per diluted share compared to $0.71, in the prior year driven by the increase in adjusted net income. Share Repurchase On July 9, 2024, the Company completed the previously announced accelerated share repurchase ("ASR") transaction. The Company received an additional 467,362 shares, in addition to the 1,516,793 shares received in March. All of the shares received as part of the ASR were retired. 2024 Outlook The Company's financial outlook for 2024 is as follows: Total consolidated revenue between $846 million and $854 million approximately 22% to 23% growth. Adjusted earnings per common share between $2.98 to $3.07 approximately 6% to 9% growth as compared to $2.82 in 2023. Capital expenditures are now anticipated to be approximately $85 million, including Sinqia. Effective tax rate of approximately 5% compared to a 6% to 7% in 2023.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information The non-GAAP measures referenced in this earnings release are supplemental measures of the Company’s performance and are not required by, or presented in accordance with, accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). They are not measurements of the Company’s financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered as alternatives to total revenue, net income or any other performance measures derived in accordance with GAAP or as alternatives to cash flows from operating activities, as indicators of operating performance or as measures of the Company’s liquidity. In addition to GAAP measures, management uses these non-GAAP measures to focus on the factors the Company believes are pertinent to the daily management of the Company’s operations and believes that they are also frequently used by analysts, investors and other stakeholders to evaluate companies in our industry. These measures have certain limitations in that they do not include the impact of certain expenses that are reflected in our condensed consolidated statements of operations that are necessary to run our business. Other companies, including other companies in our industry, may not use these measures or may calculate these measures differently than as presented herein, limiting their usefulness as comparative measures. Reconciliations of the non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measure are included at the end of this earnings release. These non-GAAP measures include EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Earnings per common share, each as defined below. EBITDA is defined as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as EBITDA further adjusted to exclude certain non-cash items and unusual expenses such as: share-based compensation, restructuring related expenses, fees and expenses from corporate transactions such as M&A activity and financing, equity investment income net of dividends received, and the impact from unrealized gains and losses on foreign currency remeasurement for assets and liabilities in non-functional currency. This measure is reported to the chief operating decision maker for purposes of making decisions about allocating resources to the segments and assessing their performance. For this reason, Adjusted EBITDA, as it relates to the Company's segments, is presented in conformity with Accounting Standards Codification 280, Segment Reporting, and is excluded from the definition of non-GAAP financial measures under the Securities and Exchange Commission's Regulation G and Item 10(e) of Regulation S-K. The Company's presentation of Adjusted EBITDA is substantially consistent with the equivalent measurements that are contained in the secured credit facilities in testing EVERTEC Group’s compliance with covenants therein such as the secured leverage ratio. Adjusted Net Income is defined as Adjusted EBITDA less: operating depreciation and amortization expense, defined as GAAP Depreciation and amortization less amortization of intangibles related to acquisitions such as customer relationships, trademarks, non-compete agreements, among others; cash interest expense defined as GAAP interest expense, less GAAP interest income adjusted to exclude non-cash amortization of debt issue costs, premium and accretion of discount; income tax expense which is calculated on adjusted pre-tax income using the applicable GAAP tax rate, adjusted for uncertain tax position releases, tax true-ups, windfall from share-based compensation, unrealized gains and losses from foreign currency remeasurement, among others; and non-controlling interests, net of amortization for intangibles created as part of the purchase. Adjusted Earnings per common share is defined as Adjusted Net Income divided by diluted shares outstanding. The Company uses Adjusted Net Income to measure the Company's overall profitability because the Company believes it better reflects the comparable operating performance by excluding the impact of the non-cash amortization and depreciation that was created as a result of merger and acquisition activity. In addition, in evaluating EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Earnings per common share, you should be aware that in the future the Company may incur expenses such as those excluded in calculating them.

EVERTEC Reports Second Quarter 2024 Results By: EVERTEC via Business Wire July 31, 2024 at 16:05 PM EDT Announces completion of accelerated share repurchase transaction EVERTEC, Inc. (NYSE: EVTC) (“Evertec”, the “Company”, “we” or “our”) today announced results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2024. Second Quarter 2024 Highlights Revenue increased 27% to $212.0 million GAAP Net Income attributable to common shareholders increased 13% to $31.9 million and increased 14% to $0.49 per diluted share Adjusted EBITDA increased 16% to $86.1 million and Adjusted earnings per common share increased 17% to $0.83 Completed the outstanding accelerated share repurchase on July 9, 2024. Mac Schuessler, President and Chief Executive Officer stated, "Our second quarter results exceeded our expectations, our business in Puerto Rico continues to perform strongly and our results in Latin America are encouraging as we continue to work through the Sinqia integration." Second Quarter 2024 Results Revenue. Total revenue for the quarter ended June 30, 2024 was $212.0 million, an increase of 27% compared with $167.1 million in the prior year quarter, reflecting the contribution from the Sinqia acquisition and organic growth across all of the Company's segments. Merchant acquiring revenue growth was a result of an improvement in the overall spread and sales volume growth. Continued growth in ATH Movil Business and increased transaction volumes drove the revenue increase in Payments Puerto Rico. Latin America revenue benefited from the contribution from the Sinqia acquisition as well as continued organic growth across the region. Business Solutions revenue reflected an increase mainly driven by a project related one-time revenue impact. Net Income attributable to common shareholders. For the quarter ended June 30, 2024, GAAP Net Income attributable to common shareholders was $31.9 million, or $0.49 per diluted share, an increase of $3.7 million or $0.06 per diluted share as compared to the prior year, driven by the increase in revenues and a decrease in income tax expense, partially offset by increased expenses, an increase in interest expense resulting from the incremental debt raised to finance the Sinqia acquisition and an increase in depreciation and amortization expense. Costs of revenues reflected an increase in personnel costs, mostly due to Sinqia, and, to a lesser extent, an increase in cloud services and professional fees. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased also mainly due to the addition of Sinqia headcount. Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin. For the quarter ended June 30, 2024, Adjusted EBITDA was $86.1 million, an increase of $11.6 million when compared to the prior year quarter, driven by the increase in revenues and the contribution from the Sinqia acquisition. Adjusted EBITDA margin (Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of total revenues) was 40.6%, a decrease of approximately 400 basis points from the prior year. The decrease in Adjusted EBITDA margin reflects the addition of Sinqia which contributes at a lower margin. Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted earnings per common share. For the quarter ended June 30, 2024, Adjusted Net Income was $53.8 million, an increase of $7.2 million compared to $46.6 million in the prior year. The increase was driven by the higher Adjusted EBITDA and a decrease in non-GAAP tax expense, partially offset by higher operating depreciation and amortization and higher cash interest expense, due to the incremental debt raised for the Sinqia acquisition. Adjusted earnings per common share was $0.83, an increase of $0.12 per diluted share compared to $0.71, in the prior year driven by the increase in adjusted net income. Share Repurchase On July 9, 2024, the Company completed the previously announced accelerated share repurchase ("ASR") transaction. The Company received an additional 467,362 shares, in addition to the 1,516,793 shares received in March. All of the shares received as part of the ASR were retired. 2024 Outlook The Company's financial outlook for 2024 is as follows: Total consolidated revenue between $846 million and $854 million approximately 22% to 23% growth. Adjusted earnings per common share between $2.98 to $3.07 approximately 6% to 9% growth as compared to $2.82 in 2023. Capital expenditures are now anticipated to be approximately $85 million, including Sinqia. Effective tax rate of approximately 5% compared to a 6% to 7% in 2023.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information The non-GAAP measures referenced in this earnings release are supplemental measures of the Company’s performance and are not required by, or presented in accordance with, accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). They are not measurements of the Company’s financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered as alternatives to total revenue, net income or any other performance measures derived in accordance with GAAP or as alternatives to cash flows from operating activities, as indicators of operating performance or as measures of the Company’s liquidity. In addition to GAAP measures, management uses these non-GAAP measures to focus on the factors the Company believes are pertinent to the daily management of the Company’s operations and believes that they are also frequently used by analysts, investors and other stakeholders to evaluate companies in our industry. These measures have certain limitations in that they do not include the impact of certain expenses that are reflected in our condensed consolidated statements of operations that are necessary to run our business. Other companies, including other companies in our industry, may not use these measures or may calculate these measures differently than as presented herein, limiting their usefulness as comparative measures. Reconciliations of the non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measure are included at the end of this earnings release. These non-GAAP measures include EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Earnings per common share, each as defined below. EBITDA is defined as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as EBITDA further adjusted to exclude certain non-cash items and unusual expenses such as: share-based compensation, restructuring related expenses, fees and expenses from corporate transactions such as M&A activity and financing, equity investment income net of dividends received, and the impact from unrealized gains and losses on foreign currency remeasurement for assets and liabilities in non-functional currency. This measure is reported to the chief operating decision maker for purposes of making decisions about allocating resources to the segments and assessing their performance. For this reason, Adjusted EBITDA, as it relates to the Company's segments, is presented in conformity with Accounting Standards Codification 280, Segment Reporting, and is excluded from the definition of non-GAAP financial measures under the Securities and Exchange Commission's Regulation G and Item 10(e) of Regulation S-K. The Company's presentation of Adjusted EBITDA is substantially consistent with the equivalent measurements that are contained in the secured credit facilities in testing EVERTEC Group’s compliance with covenants therein such as the secured leverage ratio. Adjusted Net Income is defined as Adjusted EBITDA less: operating depreciation and amortization expense, defined as GAAP Depreciation and amortization less amortization of intangibles related to acquisitions such as customer relationships, trademarks, non-compete agreements, among others; cash interest expense defined as GAAP interest expense, less GAAP interest income adjusted to exclude non-cash amortization of debt issue costs, premium and accretion of discount; income tax expense which is calculated on adjusted pre-tax income using the applicable GAAP tax rate, adjusted for uncertain tax position releases, tax true-ups, windfall from share-based compensation, unrealized gains and losses from foreign currency remeasurement, among others; and non-controlling interests, net of amortization for intangibles created as part of the purchase. Adjusted Earnings per common share is defined as Adjusted Net Income divided by diluted shares outstanding. The Company uses Adjusted Net Income to measure the Company's overall profitability because the Company believes it better reflects the comparable operating performance by excluding the impact of the non-cash amortization and depreciation that was created as a result of merger and acquisition activity. In addition, in evaluating EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Earnings per common share, you should be aware that in the future the Company may incur expenses such as those excluded in calculating them.

EVERTEC, Inc. (NYSE: EVTC) (“Evertec”, the “Company”, “we” or “our”) today announced results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2024. Second Quarter 2024 Highlights Revenue increased 27% to $212.0 million GAAP Net Income attributable to common shareholders increased 13% to $31.9 million and increased 14% to $0.49 per diluted share Adjusted EBITDA increased 16% to $86.1 million and Adjusted earnings per common share increased 17% to $0.83 Completed the outstanding accelerated share repurchase on July 9, 2024. Mac Schuessler, President and Chief Executive Officer stated, "Our second quarter results exceeded our expectations, our business in Puerto Rico continues to perform strongly and our results in Latin America are encouraging as we continue to work through the Sinqia integration." Second Quarter 2024 Results Revenue. Total revenue for the quarter ended June 30, 2024 was $212.0 million, an increase of 27% compared with $167.1 million in the prior year quarter, reflecting the contribution from the Sinqia acquisition and organic growth across all of the Company's segments. Merchant acquiring revenue growth was a result of an improvement in the overall spread and sales volume growth. Continued growth in ATH Movil Business and increased transaction volumes drove the revenue increase in Payments Puerto Rico. Latin America revenue benefited from the contribution from the Sinqia acquisition as well as continued organic growth across the region. Business Solutions revenue reflected an increase mainly driven by a project related one-time revenue impact. Net Income attributable to common shareholders. For the quarter ended June 30, 2024, GAAP Net Income attributable to common shareholders was $31.9 million, or $0.49 per diluted share, an increase of $3.7 million or $0.06 per diluted share as compared to the prior year, driven by the increase in revenues and a decrease in income tax expense, partially offset by increased expenses, an increase in interest expense resulting from the incremental debt raised to finance the Sinqia acquisition and an increase in depreciation and amortization expense. Costs of revenues reflected an increase in personnel costs, mostly due to Sinqia, and, to a lesser extent, an increase in cloud services and professional fees. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased also mainly due to the addition of Sinqia headcount. Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin. For the quarter ended June 30, 2024, Adjusted EBITDA was $86.1 million, an increase of $11.6 million when compared to the prior year quarter, driven by the increase in revenues and the contribution from the Sinqia acquisition. Adjusted EBITDA margin (Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of total revenues) was 40.6%, a decrease of approximately 400 basis points from the prior year. The decrease in Adjusted EBITDA margin reflects the addition of Sinqia which contributes at a lower margin. Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted earnings per common share. For the quarter ended June 30, 2024, Adjusted Net Income was $53.8 million, an increase of $7.2 million compared to $46.6 million in the prior year. The increase was driven by the higher Adjusted EBITDA and a decrease in non-GAAP tax expense, partially offset by higher operating depreciation and amortization and higher cash interest expense, due to the incremental debt raised for the Sinqia acquisition. Adjusted earnings per common share was $0.83, an increase of $0.12 per diluted share compared to $0.71, in the prior year driven by the increase in adjusted net income. Share Repurchase On July 9, 2024, the Company completed the previously announced accelerated share repurchase ("ASR") transaction. The Company received an additional 467,362 shares, in addition to the 1,516,793 shares received in March. All of the shares received as part of the ASR were retired. 2024 Outlook The Company's financial outlook for 2024 is as follows: Total consolidated revenue between $846 million and $854 million approximately 22% to 23% growth. Adjusted earnings per common share between $2.98 to $3.07 approximately 6% to 9% growth as compared to $2.82 in 2023. Capital expenditures are now anticipated to be approximately $85 million, including Sinqia. Effective tax rate of approximately 5% compared to a 6% to 7% in 2023.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information The non-GAAP measures referenced in this earnings release are supplemental measures of the Company’s performance and are not required by, or presented in accordance with, accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). They are not measurements of the Company’s financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered as alternatives to total revenue, net income or any other performance measures derived in accordance with GAAP or as alternatives to cash flows from operating activities, as indicators of operating performance or as measures of the Company’s liquidity. In addition to GAAP measures, management uses these non-GAAP measures to focus on the factors the Company believes are pertinent to the daily management of the Company’s operations and believes that they are also frequently used by analysts, investors and other stakeholders to evaluate companies in our industry. These measures have certain limitations in that they do not include the impact of certain expenses that are reflected in our condensed consolidated statements of operations that are necessary to run our business. Other companies, including other companies in our industry, may not use these measures or may calculate these measures differently than as presented herein, limiting their usefulness as comparative measures. Reconciliations of the non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measure are included at the end of this earnings release. These non-GAAP measures include EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Earnings per common share, each as defined below. EBITDA is defined as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as EBITDA further adjusted to exclude certain non-cash items and unusual expenses such as: share-based compensation, restructuring related expenses, fees and expenses from corporate transactions such as M&A activity and financing, equity investment income net of dividends received, and the impact from unrealized gains and losses on foreign currency remeasurement for assets and liabilities in non-functional currency. This measure is reported to the chief operating decision maker for purposes of making decisions about allocating resources to the segments and assessing their performance. For this reason, Adjusted EBITDA, as it relates to the Company's segments, is presented in conformity with Accounting Standards Codification 280, Segment Reporting, and is excluded from the definition of non-GAAP financial measures under the Securities and Exchange Commission's Regulation G and Item 10(e) of Regulation S-K. The Company's presentation of Adjusted EBITDA is substantially consistent with the equivalent measurements that are contained in the secured credit facilities in testing EVERTEC Group’s compliance with covenants therein such as the secured leverage ratio. Adjusted Net Income is defined as Adjusted EBITDA less: operating depreciation and amortization expense, defined as GAAP Depreciation and amortization less amortization of intangibles related to acquisitions such as customer relationships, trademarks, non-compete agreements, among others; cash interest expense defined as GAAP interest expense, less GAAP interest income adjusted to exclude non-cash amortization of debt issue costs, premium and accretion of discount; income tax expense which is calculated on adjusted pre-tax income using the applicable GAAP tax rate, adjusted for uncertain tax position releases, tax true-ups, windfall from share-based compensation, unrealized gains and losses from foreign currency remeasurement, among others; and non-controlling interests, net of amortization for intangibles created as part of the purchase. Adjusted Earnings per common share is defined as Adjusted Net Income divided by diluted shares outstanding. The Company uses Adjusted Net Income to measure the Company's overall profitability because the Company believes it better reflects the comparable operating performance by excluding the impact of the non-cash amortization and depreciation that was created as a result of merger and acquisition activity. In addition, in evaluating EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Earnings per common share, you should be aware that in the future the Company may incur expenses such as those excluded in calculating them.

Risk Factors," in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on February 29, 2024, as any such factors may be updated from time to time in the Company’s filings with the SEC.
