“We are pleased with our fourth quarter results which exceeded our revised guidance for revenue and adjusted EBITDA. We saw continued strong performance from US Acquiring and the turnaround of our digital wallet business is well underway with the actions we’ve taken driving positive results, repositioning the business for success, and enabling us to absorb market risks in Europe,” said Philip McHugh, CEO of Paysafe. “We continue to win and pursue competitive deals with some of the most disruptive companies in high growth verticals, such as North America iGaming and crypto, and our teams remain extremely focused on delivering on our commitments, positioning Paysafe for strong future growth.”
Recent Strategic and Operational Highlights
- Launched embedded finance solution and partnership with Binance, the world’s largest crypto exchange by volume, to enable frictionless payments
- Expanded into New York sports-betting market with multiple brands, strengthening Paysafe’s position as a leader in North American iGaming payments

Board Update
In a separate press release issued today, Paysafe also announced the appointment of Daniel Henson as non-executive chairman of its board of directors. The appointment follows the decision of William P. Foley II to step down as chairman and board member to focus on other commitments.
Changes to Segment Reporting Structure
Beginning in the fourth quarter of 2021, Paysafe has changed its reportable segments as follows:
- Digital Commerce, combining the Company's digital wallets and eCash businesses, as well as the integrated & eCommerce business.
- The digital wallets and eCash businesses were previously separate segments.
- The integrated & eCommerce business was previously included within the Integrated Processing segment.
- US Acquiring, previously included within the Integrated Processing segment.
The Company believes this new segment presentation better aligns with Paysafe's strategy and positions the business in a more customer-focused manner across Paysafe's targeted industry verticals. It also better aligns with how Paysafe management reviews its financial results to drive key decisions about the business.
These changes solely impact Paysafe’s segment reporting and there is no change to previously reported consolidated results. The summary of segment results presented in this press release reflects the new reporting structure. The recast of certain financial information for 2020 and 2021, together with the corresponding financial information for the prior reporting structure, are available within the materials accompanying this press release.

Fourth Quarter 2021 Results
Total revenue for the fourth quarter of 2021 was $371.7 million, compared to $370.3 million in the prior year. Growth from US Acquiring and the contribution from the 2021 acquisitions of PagoEfectivo and viafintech was offset by declines in Digital Commerce, including unfavorable market headwinds related to gambling regulations in Europe, which impacted the eCash and digital wallets businesses. Additionally, the prior year comparison reflects strong volumes from eCash in the fourth quarter of 2020 associated with COVID-19 lockdowns in Europe.
Net income attributable to the Company for the fourth quarter was $90.3 million, compared to net loss of $3.4 million in the prior year, primarily reflecting a $64.1 million fair value gain on the remeasurement of the warrant liability at period-end as well as a $19.9 million decrease in interest expense related to the Company’s debt refinancing completed in June of 2021.
Adjusted EBITDA for the fourth quarter was $105.5 million, an increase of 11%, compared to $95.3 million in the prior year. Adjusted EBITDA margin increased to 28.4%, compared to 25.7% in the prior year, primarily reflecting lower credit losses, the accretive impact of acquisitions and a fourth quarter 2020 payback of previous COVID-19 related salary reductions, which more than offset the impact of unfavorable business mix in 2021.
Fourth quarter net cash from operating activities was $131.9 million, compared to $236.3 million in the prior year. Free cash flow was $53.1 million, compared to $116.8 million in the prior year.
Full Year 2021 Results
Total revenue for the full year 2021 was $1,487.0 million, an increase of 4%, compared to $1,426.5 million in the prior year. Growth was partially offset by a $24.0 million impact of a business divestiture (Pay Later) in October of 2020. Excluding Pay Later, revenue increased 6%. Revenue performance compared to the prior year also reflects actions taken to improve the Company’s overall risk/reward profile in certain markets and channels, including the exit of certain clients in the direct marketing vertical.
Excluding the divested business and the direct marketing vertical, growth from all other revenue was approximately 10% compared to 2020, reflecting strong growth from US Acquiring for retail merchants, fueled by the economic recovery as a result of the easing of COVID-19 related lockdowns and increased consumer confidence. In Digital Commerce, growth was led by the eCash business, which benefited from higher gaming and sports betting volumes related to extended COVID-19 lockdowns in Europe and an associated increase in online consumer spending, as well as growth from integrated & eCommerce solutions, including iGaming and other specialized verticals. Growth was partially offset by a decline from digital wallets, reflecting market impacts in Europe associated with gambling regulations in addition to the impact of targeted actions and country exits that occurred in the prior year.
Net loss attributable to the Company for the full year 2021 was $111.0 million, compared to a loss of $126.7 million in the prior year. This decrease in net loss was primarily driven a fair value gain on the Company’s warrant liability and an increase in income tax benefit, partly offset by a non-cash impairment charge to reduce the carrying value of intangible assets in the Digital Commerce segment.
Adjusted EBITDA for the full year 2021 was $443.9 million, an increase of 4%, compared to $425.8 million in the prior year. Adjusted EBITDA margin was 29.9%, compared to 29.8% in the prior year as cost optimization offset an unfavorable business mix.
Net cash from operating activities for 2021 was $224.5 million, compared to $409.1 million in the prior year. Free cash flow was $286.3 million, compared to $356.3 million in the prior year.

Basis of Presentation
The financial information for the three months and the year ended December 31, 2021 included in this press release reflect, and is based upon, information of Paysafe Limited after giving effect to the transaction with Foley Trasimene Acquisition Corporation II (“FTAC”) completed on March 30, 2021 (as further discussed below under Reorganization and Recapitalization (the “Transaction”). The comparative financial information for the three months and the year ended December 31, 2020 is based upon information of Pi Jersey Holdco 1.5 Limited (the “Accounting Predecessor”), prior to giving effect to the Transaction. Prior to the Transaction, Paysafe Limited had no material operations, assets or liabilities.
As of December 31, 2020, an out of period adjustment related to the period ended March 31, 2020 was identified and corrected for the impairment of certain Digital Wallet’s intangible assets. This resulted in the overstatement of Intangible assets, net and understatement of Impairment expense on intangible assets, net of $21.4 million ($15.8 million net of tax), respectively, as of March 31, 2020. The prior period results have been revised to reflect the correction of this misstatement.
Reorganization and Recapitalization (the “Transaction”)
On March 30, 2021, Paysafe completed the previously announced transaction with FTAC, a special purpose acquisition company, which resulted in Paysafe Limited acquiring, and becoming the successor to, the Accounting Predecessor. Simultaneously, it completed the merger with FTAC with an exchange of the shares and warrants issued by Paysafe Limited for those of FTAC. The acquisition was accounted for as a capital reorganization followed by the merger with FTAC, which was treated as a recapitalization. Following the transaction, both the Accounting Predecessor and FTAC are indirect wholly owned subsidiaries of Paysafe Limited. Upon completion of the Transaction, the common stock and warrants began trading on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker symbols “PSFE” and “PSFE WS,” respectively, on March 31, 2021.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To supplement the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, the company uses non-GAAP measures of certain components of financial performance. This includes Gross Profit (excluding depreciation and amortization), Gross Profit Margin (excluding depreciation and amortization), Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, Free cash flow and Free cash flow conversion, which are supplemental measures that are not required by, or presented in accordance with, accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”).
Gross Profit (excluding depreciation and amortization) is defined as revenue less cost of services (excluding depreciation and amortization). Gross Profit Margin (excluding depreciation and amortization) is defined as Gross Profit (excluding depreciation and amortization) as a percentage of revenue. Management believes Gross Profit to be a useful profitability measure to assess the performance of our businesses and ability to manage cost.
Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income/(loss) before the impact of income tax (benefit)/expense, interest expense, net, depreciation and amortization, share based compensation, impairment expense on intangible assets, restructuring and other costs, loss/(gain) on disposal of a subsidiaries and other assets, net, and other income/(expense), net. These adjustments also include certain costs and transaction items that are not reflective of the underlying operating performance of the Company. Adjusted EBITDA margin is defined as Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of Revenue. Management believes Adjusted EBITDA to be a useful profitability measure to assess the performance of our businesses and improves the comparability of operating results across reporting periods.
Free cash flow is defined as net cash flows provided by/used in operating activities, adjusted for the impact of capital expenditure, payments relating to restructuring and other costs, cash paid for interest and movements in customer accounts and other restricted cash. Capital expenditure includes purchases of property plant & equipment and purchases of other intangible assets, including software development costs. Capital expenditure does not include purchases of merchant portfolios. Free cash flow conversion is defined as free cash flow as a percentage of Adjusted EBITDA. Management believes free cash flow to be a liquidity measure that provides useful information about the amount of cash generated by the business.
Management believes the presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures, including Gross Profit, Gross Profit Margin, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin, when considered together with the Company’s results presented in accordance with GAAP, provide users with useful supplemental information in comparing the operating results across reporting periods by excluding items that are not considered indicative of Paysafe’s core operating performance. In addition, management believes the presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures provides useful supplemental information in assessing the Company’s results on a basis that fosters comparability across periods by excluding the impact on the Company’s reported GAAP results of acquisitions and dispositions that have occurred in such periods. However, these non-GAAP measures exclude items that are significant in understanding and assessing Paysafe’s financial results or position. Therefore, these measures should not be considered in isolation or as alternatives to revenue, net income, cash flows from operations or other measures of profitability, liquidity or performance under GAAP.
You should be aware that Paysafe’s presentation of these measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies. In addition, the forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures of Adjusted EBITDA and Gross Profit provided herein have not been reconciled to comparable GAAP measures due to the inherent difficulty in forecasting and quantifying certain amounts that are necessary for such reconciliations. We have reconciled the historical non-GAAP financial measures presented herein to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures. A reconciliation of our forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures cannot be provided without unreasonable effort because of the inherent difficulty of accurately forecasting the occurrence and financial impact of the adjusting items necessary for such reconciliations that have not yet occurred, are out of our control, or cannot be reasonably predicted. For the same reasons, we are unable to address the probable significance of the unavailable information, which could be material to future results.
