CORRESP

On behalf of The Western Union Company, a Delaware corporation (“Western Union” or “Company”), we are writing in response to the comments contained in the comment letter dated September 5, 2023 (the “Comment Letter”) of the staff (the “Staff”) of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) with respect to the Company’s (i) Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 (the “Form 10-K”), and (ii) Current Report on Form 8-K dated July 26, 2023 (the “Form 8-K”). For the convenience of the Staff’s review, we have set forth each comment contained in the Comment Letter along with the response of the Company.

Please provide us with a quantified breakout for each period presented of the amounts included in the other non-cash items, net line item of your cash flows from operating activities. Please also present material amounts included in this line item as separate line items in your cash flows from operating activities. Refer to ASC 230-10-45-28.

The quantified breakout of the other non-cash items, net line is presented below (in millions). The Company considers individual line items quantitatively material if they exceed 10% of total cash flows from operating activities, which the Company believes is similar and analogous to other financial statement disaggregation requirements in Regulation S-X 5-03(b). None of the below items, on an absolute basis, met this materiality guideline in any of the respective years, and thus, the Company did not present these items separately. In addition, stock-based compensation expense, credit and non-credit losses, the make-whole premium on early extinguishment of debt, and net periodic benefit cost were disclosed and discussed in Notes 17, 8, 16, and 12, respectively, to the consolidated financial statements.

The Company will continue to review individual components of its other non-cash items, net and will present any individual material items separately in its cash flows from operating activities in future filings. The Company will also continue to provide further breakdowns of reconciling item categories that are believed to be meaningful, in accordance with ASC 230-10-45-29.

You present Adjusted EBITDA as a non-GAAP performance measure. Please revise your reconciliation of this measure to begin with net income, which is the most directly comparable GAAP measure. Refer to Question 103.02 of the Non-GAAP Financial Measures Compliance and Disclosure Interpretations. Also, present/discuss net income margin, when Adjusted EBITDA margin is presented/discussed.

The Company respectfully acknowledges the Staff’s comment and will reconcile its Adjusted EBITDA to net income in future filings, presenting and discussing net income margin whenever Adjusted EBITDA margin is also presented or discussed.

If you have any questions regarding the foregoing or the Company’s filings, please contact the undersigned at (720) 332-5711.
