FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Western Union Reports First Quarter Results
Revenue of $1.2 billion; earnings per share $0.42 GAAP, $0.44 adjusted
Margin expanded year-over-year: 19.6% GAAP, 20.5% adjusted
Generated solid cash flow during the first quarter and financial position remains strong
DENVER, May 5, 2020: The Western Union Company (NYSE: WU), a global leader in cross-border, cross-currency money movement and payments, today reported first quarter financial results and provided a business update that considers the potential impact of the COVID-19 pandemic.
The Company generated revenue of $1.2 billion in the first quarter, a decline of 11% compared to the prior year period, on a reported basis. Revenue declined 1% in the quarter on an adjusted constant currency basis, which excludes the impact of divestitures. The strengthening of the dollar against the Argentine peso negatively impacted reported revenue by approximately 3% in the quarter, while the effects of inflation on the Company’s Argentina-based businesses are estimated to have positively impacted revenue by approximately 1%.
GAAP earnings per share in the first quarter was $0.42 compared to $0.39 in the prior year period, and adjusted earnings per share in the first quarter was $0.44 compared to $0.41 in the prior year period. The increase in both GAAP and adjusted earnings per share was primarily due to productivity savings, lower compensation expense, a lower effective tax rate, and fewer shares outstanding, partially offset by the divestitures of Speedpay and Paymap in May of 2019.
President and CEO Hikmet Ersek said, “In these unprecedented times, Western Union’s mission to serve our customers in their efforts to support families, communities, and businesses around the world has never been more relevant. We are pleased that the progress we have made in our digital focused growth strategy, coupled with our leading cross-border, cross-currency platform and strong financial condition have positioned us well to deliver our essential services during this crisis and to drive profitable growth in the future.”
Ersek added, “Our top priority now is the safety and well-being of all of our stakeholders: employees, customers, agents and partners, and shareholders, and we are taking appropriate actions; implementing business contingency plans, modifying commercial practices, and focusing on the stability and competitive position of our company. Over the long-term we are confident that our resilient fundamentals, strong financial position, and sound strategy will enable us to expand our unique global money transfer and payment ecosystem to existing and new customer segments.”
CFO Raj Agrawal stated, “In the first quarter, our business produced solid cash flow and continued to support our capital priorities, including investing in the business and a meaningful dividend payout. Given Western Union’s leadership position in a historically stable market, sturdy balance sheet, and ample liquidity, we are confident that as the world recovers from COVID-19 our business will get back to strong and stable financial performance.”
Q1 Business Unit Highlights
|
· |
Consumer-to-Consumer (C2C) revenues, which represented 85% of total Company revenue in the quarter, declined 4% on a reported basis, or 3% constant currency, while transactions declined 3%. Geographically, the constant currency revenue decline was driven by transactions originated in Europe, the U.S., and Asia Pacific, primarily due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. Declines were partially offset by constant currency revenue growth in the Middle East driven by growth in digital money transfer services. |
|
· |
Digital money transfer revenues increased 21% on a reported basis, or 22% constant currency, in the quarter. Digital money transfer revenues represented 16% of total C2C revenue in the quarter. Within the digital money transfer business, westernunion.com revenues increased 13% on a reported basis and 14% on a constant currency basis, including cross-border revenue growth of 23%. Westernunion.com service is now available in over 75 countries, plus additional territories. Bank account payout is available in over 100 countries, with real-time capabilities to select bank accounts and digital wallets in 50 countries, and retail payout in over 200 countries and territories. |
|
· |
Other revenues, which primarily consist of retail bill payments businesses in the U.S. and Argentina, declined 59%. The decline was due to the divestitures of the Speedpay and Paymap |
businesses and the depreciation of the Argentine peso. Other revenues represented 7% of total Company revenue in the quarter. |
Additional Q1 Financial Highlights
|
· |
GAAP operating margin in the quarter was 19.6% compared to 18.8% in the prior year period, with the increase primarily attributable to the benefits of productivity savings and lower compensation expense, partially offset by the negative impact from the 2019 divestitures and changes in foreign exchange rates. |
|
· |
Adjusted operating margin in the quarter was 20.5% compared to 19.3% in the prior year period. The increase in adjusted operating margin was due to the same factors above and excludes the impact of restructuring expenses and acquisition and divestiture costs. |
|
· |
The GAAP effective tax rate in the quarter was 12.5% compared to 19.9% in the prior year period, and the adjusted tax rate was also 12.5% in this quarter compared to 20.0% in the prior year period. The decrease in the Company’s tax rates compared to the prior year period was due to projected tax liabilities in the prior year related to the 2019 divestitures and greater discrete tax benefits in the current year. |
|
· |
Cash flow from operating activities for the quarter was $112 million and was negatively impacted by year-over-year changes in working capital. The Company returned nearly $310 million to shareholders in the first quarter of 2020, consisting of $217 million in share repurchases and $92 million of dividends. |
Since the COVID-19 pandemic has spread globally, the Company has taken swift and prudent operational and financial actions that are outlined below.
Operational Update
|
· |
Employees: The Company has taken global actions and measures for the health and safety of its employees. The majority of employees are currently working from home, with most of the Company’s offices operating under full or partial business continuity plans. There has been no material negative impact on operations as a result of this change. |
|
· |
Customers: The Company has taken steps to help customers continue to reliably and conveniently transfer money and make payments around the world. Such steps include: expanded the westernunion.com service in additional countries year-to-date, launched a “Digital Location” concierge service in select countries, and worked with agents to provide home delivery of money transfers in select countries. Additionally, the Company has expanded its Account Payout Network’s real-time capabilities, which is now available in 50 countries. |
|
· |
Agents and network: The Company has worked with agents to implement social distancing measures and safety procedures designed to protect both agents and customers. In a large majority of the Company’s markets, agent locations remain open for business as an essential service. Additionally, the Company offers a global Agent Locator tool to help customers identify location options. |
|
· |
Community: The Company and the Western Union Foundation have pledged significant funds in the fight against COVID-19. The funds will support domestic hunger relief efforts and global healthcare systems serving vulnerable populations, including refugees and migrants. |
Financial Update
|
· |
Revenue trends: Through mid-March, the Company performed in line with internal expectations, with disruptions limited to a few countries, notably China and Italy. As the virus has spread globally, the Company has seen a significant decline in transactions, primarily in its C2C retail business, due to stay-at-home orders and economic uncertainty surrounding the severity and duration of the crisis. These trends continued in the month of April, but a small number of geographies and markets began to ease restrictions on a limited basis. Assuming restrictions ease and economies recover more broadly over the next few months, we believe negative trends are likely to be the most significant in the second quarter of the year. |
|
· |
Financial position and liquidity continue to be strong: As of March 31, 2020, the Company had cash of $1.1 billion, no borrowings outstanding on its $1.5 billion revolving credit facility, and no significant debt maturities due until 2022. The Company continues to finance working capital through the commercial paper market and had $85 million outstanding at the end of the first quarter. |
|
· |
Capital allocation priorities remain unchanged: The Company’s capital allocation hierarchy is investing in the business, returning cash to shareholders through the quarterly dividend, mergers and acquisitions, and share repurchases. The Company has temporarily paused share repurchases. |
|
· |
Cost structure provides flexibility: Approximately 60% of total costs are variable in nature. The Company is managing its fixed costs during the crisis by delaying hiring, limiting travel, and prioritizing investments. As presented at the September 2019 Investor Day, the Company expects to realize approximately $50 million of annual cost savings in 2020, and potentially more depending on the extent of the COVID-19 disruption, and a total of $150 million through 2022. |
|
· |
Given the extent and uncertain duration of the impact of COVID-19, the Company does not believe it can reasonably project the impact of the virus on its 2020 financial results at this time and will provide an update on the 2020 outlook when appropriate. However, the Company expects to emerge strong and well positioned after the disruption is over. |
Adjustment Items
Adjusted constant currency revenue growth metrics for 2020 exclude revenues for the Speedpay and Paymap businesses in the prior year period, each of which was divested in May 2019. Adjusted operating profit, tax rate, and earnings per share metrics for 2020 periods exclude restructuring expenses and acquisition and divestiture costs, net of related tax benefits, as applicable.
Adjusted constant currency revenue metrics for 2019 exclude revenues for the Speedpay and Paymap businesses. Adjusted operating profit metrics for 2019 periods exclude restructuring expenses and acquisition and divestiture costs. Adjusted tax rate and earnings per share metrics for 2019 periods exclude the impact of the net gain on the Speedpay and Paymap divestitures, restructuring expenses, and acquisition and divestiture costs. Restructuring expenses are not included in operating segment results.
Although the Company has previously incurred and can reasonably be expected to incur restructuring costs in the future, these expenses are specific to the implementation of the Global Strategy initiative and the Company has therefore provided adjusted financial results that exclude these expenses.
Additional Statistics
Additional key statistics for the quarter and historical trends can be found in the supplemental tables included with this press release.
All amounts included in the supplemental tables to this press release are rounded to the nearest tenth of a million, except as otherwise noted. As a result, the percentage changes and margins disclosed herein may not recalculate precisely using the rounded amounts provided.
Non-GAAP Measures
Western Union presents a number of non-GAAP financial measures because management believes that these metrics provide meaningful supplemental information in addition to the GAAP metrics and provide comparability and consistency to prior periods. Constant currency results assume foreign revenues are translated from foreign currencies to the U.S. dollar, net of the effect of foreign currency hedges, at rates consistent with those in the prior year.
These non-GAAP financial measures include the following: (1) consolidated revenue change constant currency adjusted and excluding Speedpay and Paymap, (2) Consumer-to-Consumer segment revenue change constant currency adjusted, (3) Consumer-to-Consumer segment westernunion.com and digital money transfer revenue change constant currency adjusted, (4) Business Solutions segment revenue change constant currency adjusted, (5) operating margin, excluding, as applicable, restructuring-related expenses and acquisition and divestiture costs, (6) diluted earnings per share, excluding, as applicable, restructuring-related expenses and acquisition and divestiture costs, (7) effective tax rate, excluding, as applicable, restructuring-related expenses and acquisition and divestiture costs, and (8) additional measures found in the supplemental tables included with this press release.
Reconciliations of non-GAAP to comparable GAAP measures are available in the accompanying schedules and in the “Investor Relations” section of the Company’s website at

* See the “Notes to Key Statistics” section of the press release for the applicable Note references and the reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures, unless already reconciled herein.
** In the first quarter of 2020, we changed our expense allocation method so that our corporate data center and network engineering information technology expenses are allocated based on a percentage of relative revenue. In 2019, these costs had been allocated based in part on a percentage of relative transactions. We believe that an allocation method based fully on relative revenue presents a more representative view of segment profitability, as certain of our services, particularly some of our bill payment services and our money order services, have much lower revenues per transaction than our other services. For the three months ended March 31, 2019, June 30, 2019, September 30, 2019, and December 31, 2019, and for the twelve months ended December 31, 2019, this change would have decreased Consumer-to-Consumer and increased Other operating income by $13.1 million, $11.7 million, $13.0 million, $11.8 million, and $49.6 million, respectively. Business Solutions was not materially impacted by the change in the allocation method.

Consists primarily of the Company’s bill payments businesses in Argentina and the United States. |
|
(b) |
On May 9, 2019, the Company completed the sale of its United States electronic bill payments business known as Speedpay to ACI Worldwide Corp. and ACW Worldwide, Inc. for approximately $750 million in cash. In addition, on May 6, 2019, the Company completed the sale of Paymap Inc. ("Paymap"), which provides electronic mortgage bill payment services, for contingent consideration and immaterial cash proceeds received at closing. Both Speedpay and Paymap were included as a component of Other in the Company’s segment reporting. Revenues attributed to Speedpay and Paymap included in the Company's results were $91.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019. Operating income attributed to Speedpay and Paymap, excluding corporate allocations, was $22.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019. |
|
(c) |
Restructuring-related expenses have been excluded from the measurement of segment operating income provided to the chief operating decision maker for purposes of assessing segment performance and decision making with respect to resource allocation. |
|
(d) |
In the first quarter of 2020, we changed our expense allocation method so that our corporate data center and network engineering information technology expenses are allocated based on a percentage of relative revenue. In 2019, these costs had been allocated based in part on a percentage of relative transactions. We believe that an allocation method based fully on relative revenue presents a more representative view of segment profitability, as certain of our services, particularly some of our bill payment services and our money order services, have much lower revenues per transaction than our other services. For the three months ended March 31, 2019, this change would have decreased Consumer-to-Consumer operating income and increased Other operating income by $13.1 million. Business Solutions was not materially impacted by the change in the allocation method. |

THE WESTERN UNION COMPANY
NOTES TO KEY STATISTICS
(in millions, unless indicated otherwise)
(Unaudited)
Western Union’s management believes the non-GAAP financial measures presented provide meaningful supplemental information regarding our operating results to assist management, investors, analysts, and others in understanding our financial results and to better analyze trends in our underlying business because they provide consistency and comparability to prior periods. We have also included non-GAAP revenues that remove the impact of Speedpay and Paymap in order to provide a more meaningful comparison of results from continuing operations.
A non-GAAP financial measure should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the most comparable GAAP financial measure. A non-GAAP financial measure reflects an additional way of viewing aspects of our operations that, when viewed with our GAAP results and the reconciliation to the corresponding GAAP financial measure, provide a more complete understanding of our business. Users of the financial statements are encouraged to review our financial statements and publicly-filed reports in their entirety and not to rely on any single financial measure. A reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures is included below, where not previously reconciled above.

THE WESTERN UNION COMPANY
NOTES TO KEY STATISTICS
(in millions, unless indicated otherwise)
(Unaudited)
Non-GAAP related notes:
|
(k) |
Represents the impact from the fluctuation in exchange rates between all foreign currency denominated amounts and the United States dollar. Constant currency results exclude any benefit or loss caused by foreign exchange fluctuations between foreign currencies and the United States dollar, net of foreign currency hedges, which would not have occurred if there had been a constant exchange rate. We believe that this measure provides management and investors with information about revenue results and trends that eliminates currency volatility while increasing the comparability of our underlying results and trends. |

On May 9, 2019, we completed the sale of our United States electronic bill payments business known as “Speedpay” to ACI Worldwide Corp. and ACW Worldwide, Inc. ("ACI") for approximately $750 million in cash. In addition, on May 6, 2019, we completed the sale of Paymap Inc. ("Paymap"), which provides electronic mortgage bill payment services, for contingent consideration and immaterial cash proceeds received at closing. Both Speedpay and Paymap were included as a component of "Other" in our segment reporting. Revenue has been adjusted to exclude the carved out financial information for Speedpay and Paymap and the gain on the sales and the income taxes on the gain, including the elimination of previously forecasted annual base-erosion anti-abuse taxes, has been removed from adjusted effective tax rate. These financial measures are non-GAAP measures and should not be considered a substitute for the GAAP measures. We have included this information because management believes that presenting these measures as adjusted to exclude divestitures will provide investors with a more meaningful comparison of results within the periods presented. Additionally, Speedpay and Paymap contributions to operating income exclude corporate overhead allocations. |
|
(m) |
Earnings before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation, and Amortization (“EBITDA”) results from taking operating income and adjusting for depreciation and amortization expenses. EBITDA results provide an additional performance measurement calculation which helps neutralize the operating income effect of assets acquired in prior periods. |
|
(n) |
Represents impact from expenses incurred in connection with an overall restructuring plan, approved by the Board of Directors on August 1, 2019, to improve our business processes and cost structure by reducing headcount and consolidating various facilities. While certain of these expenses are identifiable to our business segments, primarily to our Consumer-to-Consumer segment, they have been excluded from the measurement of segment operating income provided to the Chief Operating Decision Maker for purposes of assessing segment performance and decision making with respect to resource allocation. These expenses are therefore excluded from the Company's segment operating income results. While these expenses are specific to this initiative, the types of expenses related to this initiative are similar to expenses that we have previously incurred and can reasonably be expected to incur in the future. We believe that, by excluding the effects of these charges that can impact operating trends, management and investors are provided with a measure that increases the comparability of our underlying operating results. |
|
(o) |
Represents the impact from expenses incurred in connection with our acquisition and divestiture activity, including the Speedpay and Paymap divestitures. The first quarter 2019 presentations have been recast to provide consistency with the subsequent quarters and full year 2019 presentations and exclude these expenses from our operating and net income. We believe that, by excluding the effects of these charges that can impact operating trends, management and investors are provided with a measure that increases the comparability of our underlying operating results. |
