1

Reporting entity

Nuvei Corporation (“Nuvei” or the “Company”) is a global provider of payment technology solutions to merchants and partners in North America, Europe, Asia Pacific and Latin America and is domiciled in Canada with its registered office located at 1100 René-Lévesque Blvd., 9th floor, Montreal, Quebec, Canada. Nuvei is the ultimate parent of the group and was incorporated on September 1, 2017 under the Canada Business Corporations Act (“CBCA”)

The Company’s shares are listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange (“TSX”) under the symbols “NVEI” and “NVEI.U”.

 

2

Basis of preparation and consolidation

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 annual audited consolidated financial statements 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 consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2020.

Certain comparative figures related to foreign currency exchange gains or losses have been reclassified to conform with the presentation for the current year. Accordingly, for the three months ended June 30, 2020, a foreign currency exchange gain of $21,417 included in net finance costs and a foreign currency exchange loss of $3,131 included in Selling, general and administrative expenses (“SG&A”) were reclassified to loss (gain) on foreign currency exchange in the consolidated statement of profit or loss. For the six months ended June 30, 2020, a foreign currency exchange loss of $25,093 included in net finance costs and a foreign currency exchange loss of $2,340 included in Selling, general and administrative expenses (“SG&A”) were reclassified to loss (gain) on foreign currency exchange in the consolidated statement of profit or loss. These reclassifications had no impact on net income or net income per share. The Company believes this will provide more relevant information on foreign currency exchange and improve comparability of SG&A expenses and net finance costs in the consolidated statement of profit or loss.

These condensed interim consolidated financial statements were authorized for issue by the Company’s Board of Directors on August 9, 2021.

Operating segments

The Company has one reportable segment for the provision of payment technology solutions to merchants and partners in North America, Europe, Asia Pacific and Latin America.

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, 2020 except those described below. Actual results may differ from these estimates, judgments and assumptions.

COVID-19 impact on judgments, assumptions and estimation uncertainties

The COVID-19 pandemic has disrupted the economy and put unprecedented strains on governments, health care systems, businesses and individuals around the world. The impact and duration of the COVID-19 pandemic are difficult to assess or predict.

The spread of COVID-19 has caused us to modify our business practices to help minimize the risk of the virus to our employees, our partners, our merchants and their customers, and the communities in which we do business. The negative impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business and the condensed interim consolidated financial statements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 has been limited. The extent and continued impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business will depend on certain developments, including: the duration and spread of the outbreak; government responses to the pandemic; the impact on our customers and our sales cycles; the impact on customer, industry or employee events; and the effect on our partners, merchants and their customers, third-party service providers, customers and supply chains, all of which are uncertain and cannot be predicted. Accordingly, there is a higher level of uncertainty with respect to management’s judgments, assumptions and estimates.

Expense recognition of share-based payments with performance conditions

The expense recognized for share-based payments for which the performance conditions have not yet been met is based on an estimation of the probability of achieving the performance conditions which is difficult to predict, as well as the timing of their achievement. The final expense is only determinable when the outcome is known.

 

3

Significant accounting policies and other changes in the current reporting period

The accounting policies used in these interim financial statements are consistent with those applied by the Company in its December 31, 2020 audited annual consolidation financial statements excepts for those described below.

Share-based payments with performance conditions

The Company has granted stock options and performance share units (“PSU”) that vest upon reaching certain objectives. At the grant date, the Company assesses whether those performance conditions are market or non-market conditions. Market conditions are considered in the fair value estimate on the grant date and this fair value is not revised subsequently. For non-market conditions, the Company estimates the expected outcome of the performance targets and revises those estimates and related expense until the final outcome is known.

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 beginning on January 1, 2022 or later. There were no significant updates to the standards and interpretations issued but not yet adopted described in the annual audited consolidated financial statements.

Business combinations

 

  a)

Acquisition

If the final purchase price allocation for a business combination is incomplete, the Company will report provisional amounts for the items for which the accounting is incomplete. Provisional amounts are adjusted during the measurement period to reflect new information obtained about facts and circumstances that existed at the acquisition date that, if known, would have affected the amount recognized at that date. The measurement period is the period from the acquisition date to the date the Company obtains complete information about facts and circumstances that existed as of the acquisition date and is subject to a maximum of one year.

Base Commerce LLC

On January 1, 2021, the Company acquired substantially all of the assets of Base Commerce LLC (“Base”), a technology-driven payment processing company specializing in bank card and automated clearing house payment processing solutions. The purchase price for this acquisition totalled $92,678 including a cash amount of $6,186 placed in escrow in connection with adjustments to the purchase price or indemnification per the purchase agreement. The remaining amount consists of a contingent consideration of $3,004 which is contingent upon meeting certain performance metrics. Since the initial purchase price allocation was disclosed, contingent consideration has been reduced by $4,000 and trade and other payables have increased by $650 and those adjustments have been reflected as an adjustment of $3,350 to goodwill. The following table summarizes the preliminary amounts of assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the acquisition date:

To finance the cash consideration noted above, on December 31, 2020, the Company increased its credit facility by amending its credit agreement to add a term loan of $100,000.

Goodwill arising from this acquisition mainly consists of assembled workforce and expected synergies, which were not recorded separately since they did not meet the recognition criteria for identifiable intangible assets.

Base contributed revenues of $28,935 to the Company for the period from the acquisition date to June 30, 2021. Acquisition costs of $268 have been expensed and recorded under selling, general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statement of profit or loss and comprehensive income or loss for the six months ended June 30, 2021.

Disposal of subsidiary

In May 2020, the Company disposed of CreditGuard, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, to the MAX group, for $21,108 including adjustments of $1,108. The measurement of the assets and liabilities of CreditGuard at fair value less cost to sell resulted in an impairment of $338 being recognized in selling, general and administrative expenses in the six months ended June 30, 2020.

Amended and restated credit facility

On June 18, 2021, the Company renegotiated the terms of its Credit facility to reduce the interest rate and increase the total financing capacity available under that facility from $211,971 to $511,971 in the form of term loans and from $100,000 to $350,000 in the form of a revolving facility.

term loan will be payable quarterly at an annual rate of 1.00% and remaining balance will be payable at maturity which remained unchanged at September 28, 2025. The maturity of the revolving facility was extended by one year to September 28, 2024. There was no change to the guarantees and covenants of the credit facility arrangement. This amendment was treated as a debt modification and did not result in any gain or loss on debt modification. Concurrently with the agreement, the company has borrowed $300,000 under the amended term loan facility, which was recorded net of the associated transaction costs of $5,373.

 

  i)

Loans drawn in US dollars under the First Lien Credit facilities bear interest at the ABR1 plus 1.50% (December 31, 2020 – 3.00%) or the adjusted eurocurrency2 rate plus 2.50% (December 31, 2020 – 4.00%). As at June 30, 2021, the outstanding Term loan facilities interest rate was 3.00% (December 31, 2020 – 4.75%).

 

  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 June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 there was no loan denominated in Canadian dollars.

 

  iii)

In case the LIBOR is no longer available following the benchmark reform and if the LIBOR is replaced by the Term Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”), the LIBOR for the interest computation shall be 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; or if the LIBOR is replaced by the Daily SOFR, by the sums of: a) Daily simple SOFR; and b) 0.26%.

 

  b)

Guarantees and covenants

Borrowings under the facilities are secured by all current and future assets of the Company and its existing and future subsidiaries. The continued availability of the first lien credit facilities is subject to the Company’s ability to maintain a total leverage ratio of less than or equal to 8.00 : 1.00 for period ending December 31, 2020 and June 30, 2021, with the ratio decreasing year over year every October 1, until it reaches 6.50 : 1.00 for the period after September 30, 2023. The total leverage ratio considers the Company’s total debt, calculated as long-term debt less unrestricted cash. The Company is in compliance with all applicable covenants as at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020.

Net income (loss) per share

Prior to the Initial Public Offering (“IPO”) on September 22, 2020, the Company had three categories of potential dilutive securities: convertible liability-classified shares, unsecured convertible debentures due to shareholders and stock options. Since the IPO, stock options, Restricted Share Units (“RSUs”) and PSUs are considered to be potentially dilutive.

Diluted net income (loss) per share excludes all dilutive potential shares if their effect is anti-dilutive. For the three months and six months ended June 30, 2021, and for the three months ended June 30, 2020, anti-dilutive stock options were excluded from the calculation of diluted net income per share. As a result of net loss incurred for the six months ended June 30, 2020, the potential dilutive securities have been excluded from the calculation of diluted loss per share because including them would be anti-dilutive.

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.

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 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 June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, financial instruments measured at fair value in the condensed interim consolidated statements of financial position were as follows:

Below are the assumptions and valuation methods used in the level 3 fair value measurements:

 

   

the fair value of the advances to a third party independent sales organization was determined by calculating the present value of the future estimated cash flows over the term of the agreements. There has been no material change to the assumptions used as at December 31, 2020.

 

   

the fair value assumptions for the LPP put option liability is determined using the Black-Scholes method; the main assumption is the fair value of the units in LPP which is determined to be $13,128 as at June 30, 2021; and

 

   

the fair value of Base contingent consideration is determined using the calculation in the purchase agreement. The main assumption is the forecast of expected future cashflows. Changes made to the initial purchase price allocation to reflect facts and circumstances that existed at the acquisition date are disclosed in note 4.
