CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (“Quarterly Report”) contains forward-looking statements. We intend such forward-looking statements to be covered by the safe harbor provisions for forward-looking statements contained in Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). All statements other than statements of historical fact contained in this Quarterly Report, including, without limitation, statements relating to our position as a leader within our industry, our future results of operations and financial position, business strategy and plans, objectives of management for future operations, including, among others, statements regarding expected growth and future capital expenditures and debt covenant compliance and service obligations, are forward-looking statements. These statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other important factors that may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements.

In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terms such as “may,” “will,” “should,” “expect,” “plan,” “anticipate,” “could,” “intend,” “target,” “project,” “contemplate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “predict,” “potential,” or “continue” or the negative of these terms or other similar expressions, though not all forward-looking statements can be identified by such terms or expressions. The forward-looking statements in this Quarterly Report are only predictions. We have based these forward-looking statements largely on our current expectations and projections about future events and financial trends that we believe may affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. These forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of this Quarterly Report and are subject to a number of important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements, including, but not limited to the following:

•substantial and increasingly intense competition worldwide in the financial services, payments and payment technology industries may adversely affect our overall business and operations;

•potential changes in the competitive landscape, including disintermediation from other participants in the payments chain, could harm our business;

•global economic, political and other conditions may adversely affect trends in consumer, business and government spending, which may adversely impact the demand for our services and our revenue and profitability;

•we are exposed to inflation, which could negatively affect our business, financial condition and results of operations;

•our ability to anticipate and respond to changing industry trends and the needs and preferences of our merchants and consumers may adversely affect our competitiveness or the demand for our products and services;

•because we rely on third-party vendors to provide products and services, we could be adversely impacted if they fail to fulfill their obligations;

•acquisitions create certain risks and may adversely affect our business, financial condition or results of operations;

•our inability to protect our systems and data from continually evolving cybersecurity risks, security breaches or other technological risks could affect our reputation among our merchants and consumers and may expose us to liability;

•we may not be able to continue to expand our share of the existing payment processing markets or expand into new markets which would inhibit our ability to grow and increase our profitability;

•our services and products must integrate with a variety of operating systems, software, devices, and web browsers, and our business may be materially and adversely affected if we are unable to ensure that our services interoperate with such operating systems, software, devices, and web browsers;

•we depend, in part, on our merchant and software partner relationships and strategic partnerships with various institutions to operate and grow our business. If we are unable to maintain these relationships and partnerships, our business may be adversely affected;

•our Founder (as defined herein) has significant influence over us, including control over decisions that require the approval of stockholders; and

•those factors described in the sections titled “Risk Factors” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Conditions and Results of Operations” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022, filed on March 1, 2023 (the “2022 Form 10-K”) and the section titled “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in this Quarterly Report.

3

Moreover, we operate in an evolving environment. New risk factors and uncertainties may emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for management to predict all risk factors and uncertainties.

You should read this Quarterly Report and the documents that we reference herein completely and with the understanding that our actual future results may be materially different from what we expect. We qualify all of our forward-looking statements by these cautionary statements. Except as required by applicable law, we do not plan to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements contained herein, whether as a result of any new information, future events, changed circumstances or otherwise.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited) (in millions, except share, unit and per unit amounts)

1.Organization, Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies

Organization

Shift4 Payments, Inc. (“Shift4 Payments” or “the Company”) was incorporated in Delaware on November 5, 2019 in order to carry on the business of Shift4 Payments, LLC and its consolidated subsidiaries. The Company is a leading independent provider of software and payment processing solutions in the United States (“U.S.”) based on total volume of payments processed. The Company has achieved its leadership position through decades of solving business and operational challenges facing its customers’ overall commerce needs. The Company’s merchants range in size from small owner-operated local businesses to multinational enterprises conducting commerce throughout the world. The Company distributes its services through a scaled network of seasoned internal sales and support teams, as well as through its network of software partners. For its software partners, the Company offers a single integration to a global end-to-end payment offering, a proprietary gateway and a robust suite of technology solutions (including cloud enablement, business intelligence, analytics, and mobile) to enhance the value of their software and simplify payment acceptance. For its merchants, the Company provides a seamless, unified consumer experience and fulfills business needs that would otherwise require multiple software, hardware and payment vendors. The Shift4 Model is built to serve a range of merchants from small owner-operated local businesses to multinational enterprises conducting commerce throughout the world, including food and beverage, hospitality, stadiums and arenas, gaming, specialty retail, non-profits, eCommerce, and exciting technology companies. This includes the Company’s point of sale (“POS”) software offerings, as well as over 500 software integrations across virtually every industry vertical.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying interim condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company are unaudited. These interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the U.S. (“U.S. GAAP”) and the applicable rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for interim financial information. As such, these financial statements do not include all information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. The December 31, 2022 Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet was derived from audited financial statements as of that date, but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements.

In the opinion of management, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments consisting only of normal recurring adjustments necessary to state fairly the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented in conformity with U.S. GAAP applicable to interim periods. The results of operations for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year or future periods. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and the related notes thereto as of and for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022, as disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022 (the “2022 Form 10-K”).

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Shift4 Payments, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. Shift4 Payments, Inc. consolidates the financial results of Shift4 Payments, LLC, which is considered a variable interest entity. Shift4 Payments, Inc. is the primary beneficiary and sole managing member of Shift4 Payments, LLC and has decision making authority that significantly affects the economic performance of the entity. As a result, the Company consolidates Shift4 Payments, LLC and reports a noncontrolling interest representing the economic interest in Shift4 Payments, LLC held by Rook Holdings Inc. (“Rook”). All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

10

The assets and liabilities of Shift4 Payments, LLC represent substantially all of the consolidated assets and liabilities of Shift4 Payments, Inc. with the exception of certain cash balances, contingent consideration for earnout liabilities for The Giving Block, Inc. (“The Giving Block”), amounts payable under the Tax Receivable Agreement (“TRA”), and the aggregate principal amount of $690.0 million of 2025 Convertible Notes and $632.5 million of 2027 Convertible Notes (together, the “Convertible Notes”) that are held by Shift4 Payments, Inc. directly. As of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, $12.3 million and $9.8 million of cash, respectively, was directly held by Shift4 Payments, Inc. As of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the earnout liability for The Giving Block was $2.9 million and $10.9 million, respectively. The $2.9 million liability as of March 31, 2023 represents the cash portion of the earnout, which is expected to be paid in the second quarter of 2023. As of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the TRA liability was $2.2 million and $1.7 million, respectively. In connection with the issuance of the Convertible Notes, Shift4 Payments, Inc. entered into Intercompany Convertible Notes with Shift4 Payments, LLC, whereby Shift4 Payments, Inc. provided the net proceeds from the issuance of the Convertible Notes to Shift4 Payments, LLC in the amount of $1,322.5 million. Shift4 Payments, Inc., which was incorporated on November 5, 2019, has not had any material operations on a standalone basis since its inception, and all of the operations of the Company are carried out by Shift4 Payments, LLC and its subsidiaries. Shift4 Payments, Inc. recognized fair value adjustments to the contingent liability for The Giving Block of $(0.5) million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 due to the final measurement of the earnout payment.

Change in Presentation of Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets

Certain prior year balances have been adjusted to present “Restricted cash” on its own line item rather than within “Cash and cash equivalents” on the Company’s unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets to conform to the current period presentation.

Change in Presentation of Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations

Certain prior year balances have been adjusted to present “Transaction-related expenses” within “Professional fees” rather than its own line item on the Company’s unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Liquidity and Management’s Plan

As of March 31, 2023, the Company had $1,772.5 million total principal amount of debt outstanding and was in compliance with the financial covenants under its debt agreements. The Company expects to be in compliance with such financial covenants for at least 12 months following the issuance of these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. See Note 11 for further information on the Company’s debt obligations.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Significant estimates inherent in the preparation of the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include estimates of fair value of acquired assets and liabilities through business combinations, fair value of contingent liabilities related to earnout payments, deferred income tax valuation allowances, amounts associated with the Company’s tax receivable agreement with Rook and certain affiliates of Searchlight Capital Partners (together, the “Continuing Equity Owners”), fair value of debt instruments, allowance for doubtful accounts, income taxes, investments in securities and noncontrolling interests. Estimates are based on past experience and other considerations reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

Significant Accounting Policies

The Company’s significant accounting policies are discussed in Note 2 to Shift4 Payments, Inc.’s consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2022 in the 2022 Form 10-K. There have been no significant changes to these policies which have had a material impact on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes during the three months ended March 31, 2023, except for the below.

Cash and Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash

Highly liquid investments with maturities of three months or less at the date of purchase are considered to be cash equivalents and are stated at cost, which approximates fair value. The Company’s cash equivalents consist of highly liquid investments in money market funds, which amounted to $672.2 million and $652.8 million as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.

11

The Company classifies as restricted certain cash that is not available for use in its operations. Prior to December 2022, the Company had funds deposited in a sponsor bank merchant settlement account (“Settlement Funds”) to facilitate gross card transaction deposits for those customers the Company bills on a monthly, versus a daily basis. This amount fluctuates based upon end-to-end payment volumes and timing of billing cycles. The funds deposited at the sponsor bank were included within “Accounts receivable, net” prior to December 2022. In December 2022 and March 2023, pursuant to amendments to its agreement, the Company received in cash its Settlement Funds of $74.0 million, which was restricted as to withdrawal by the sponsor bank. In January 2023 and April 2023, the Company, as required by the amendments, deposited $74.0 million to its sponsor bank merchant settlement account. See Note 24 for more information on the April 2023 amendment to the sponsor bank agreement. As of both March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, Restricted cash was $74.0 million, representing the Company’s Settlement Funds.

The Company maintains its cash with what are widely considered to be high credit quality financial institutions. The total cash balances insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation are up to $250 thousand per bank.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

In March 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform, which provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying U.S. GAAP to contract modifications and hedging relationships, subject to certain criteria, that reference the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”), or another reference rate that is expected to be discontinued. ASU 2020-04 was subsequently amended by ASU 2022-06, Reference Rate Reform, which extends the date through which entities can elect these optional expedients and exceptions. Companies may elect to apply these amendments as of March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2024. The Company is currently evaluating whether it will elect the optional expedients, as well as evaluating the impact of ASU 2020-04 on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

In June 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-03, Fair Value Measurement of Equity Securities Subject to Contractual Sale Restrictions, to clarify that a contractual restriction on the sale of an equity security is not considered part of the unit of account of the equity security and, therefore, is not considered in measuring the fair value of the equity security. ASU 2022-03 also clarifies that an entity cannot recognize and measure a contractual sale restriction as a separate unit of account. The amendments in ASU 2022-03 may be early adopted and are effective on a prospective basis for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company currently considers sale restrictions in measuring the fair value of shares of its Class A common stock equity securities issued in conjunction with acquisitions. The Company is currently evaluating whether it will early adopt the amendments in ASU 2022-03 and is evaluating the impact of the amendments on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

2.Acquisitions

Each of the following acquisitions was accounted for as a business combination using the acquisition method of accounting. The respective purchase prices were allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on the estimated fair values at the date of acquisition. The excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net assets acquired was allocated to goodwill and represents the future economic benefits arising from other assets acquired, which cannot be individually identified or separately recognized.

Online Payments Group

On September 29, 2022, the Company completed the acquisition of Online Payments Group AG (“Online Payments Group”) by acquiring 100% of its common stock for $125.9 million of estimated total purchase consideration, net of cash acquired. Online Payments Group is a European payment service provider with a world-class developer portal and checkout experience that management believes will accelerate the Company’s global eCommerce growth. Total purchase consideration was as follows:

Cash	$	74.1
Shares of Class A common stock (a)	38.6
Contingent consideration (b)	22.0
Shareholder loans transfer	2.5
Total purchase consideration	137.2
Less: cash acquired	(11.3)
Total purchase consideration, net of cash acquired	$	125.9
(a) Total purchase consideration includes 971,371 shares of common stock.
(b) The Company agreed to an earnout due to the former shareholders of Online Payments Group, not to exceed $60.0 million. $30.0 million of the earnout is payable in September 2023 if key customers of Online Payments Group contribute a specified amount of revenue from September 29, 2022 to September 28, 2023 and the remaining $30.0 million of the earnout is payable in September 2024 if key customers contribute a specified amount of revenue from September 29, 2022 to September 28, 2024. Each portion of the earnout will be paid 50% in shares of the Company’s Class A common stock and 50% in cash. The fair value of the earnout was included in the initial purchase consideration and will be revalued and recorded quarterly until the end of the earnout period as a fair value adjustment within “Revaluation of contingent liabilities” in the Company’s unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. As of March 31, 2023, the fair value of the earnout was $40.2 million, of which $28.0 million is recognized in “Accrued expenses and other current liabilities” and $12.2 million is recognized in “Other noncurrent liabilities” on the Company’s unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

The following table summarizes the fair value assigned to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the acquisition date. These amounts reflect various preliminary fair value estimates and assumptions, and are subject to change within the measurement period as valuations are finalized. The primary areas of preliminary purchase price allocation subject to change relate to the valuation of contingent consideration, accounts receivable, accrued expenses and other current liabilities assumed, and residual goodwill.

Accounts receivable	$	2.2
Shareholder loans receivable (a)	2.5
Goodwill (b)	49.9
Other intangible assets	84.0
Indemnification asset (c)	7.5
Accounts payable	(0.4)
Accrued expenses and other current liabilities	(1.4)
Uncertain tax position (d)	(6.7)
Deferred tax liability	(9.9)
Other noncurrent liabilities	(1.8)
Net assets acquired	$	125.9
(a) Amount is eliminated in consolidation and therefore has no impact to the Company’s unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
(b) Goodwill is not deductible for tax purposes.
(c) Included within “Other noncurrent assets” in the Company’s unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
(d) Included within “Other noncurrent liabilities” in the Company’s unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

13

Upon acquisition, the Company assessed the probability Online Payments Group would be required to pay certain tax liabilities and recorded to “Other noncurrent liabilities” on the Company’s unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets $6.7 million for income taxes related to unrecognized tax benefits determined in accordance with the provisions of ASC 740, “Accounting for income taxes” and $1.8 million for non-income taxes determined in accordance with the provisions of ASC 450, “Contingencies.” Online Payments Group has agreed to indemnify the Company for tax liabilities related to periods prior to the acquisition and an indemnification asset was established for $7.5 million in the purchase price allocation, which is recorded to “Other noncurrent assets” on the Company’s unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

The contingent liability arising from the expected earnout payment included in purchase consideration was measured on the acquisition date using a Monte Carlo simulation in a risk-neutral framework, calibrated to Management’s revenue forecasts. The transaction was not taxable for income tax purposes. Other intangible assets consists of definite-lived intangible assets, which includes customer relationships and developed technology. The fair values of these intangible assets were estimated using inputs classified as Level 3 under the income approach using the relief-from-royalty method (developed technology) or the multi-period excess earnings method (customer relationships). Management’s estimates of fair value are based upon assumptions related to projected revenues, earnings before interest expense and income tax (“EBIT”) margins, customer attrition rates, and discount rates. The transaction was not taxable for income tax purposes. The weighted average life of developed technology and customer relationships is 8 years and 13 years, respectively. The goodwill arising from the acquisition largely consisted of revenue synergies associated with a larger total addressable market and the ability to cross-sell existing customers, new customers and technology capabilities.

The acquisition of Online Payments Group did not have a material impact on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. Accordingly, revenue and expenses related to the acquisition and pro forma financial information have not been presented.

13.Fair Value Measurement

U.S. GAAP defines a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted process in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements).

The Company determines the fair values of its assets and liabilities that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in accordance with the hierarchy described below. The following three levels of inputs may be used to measure fair value:

•Level 1—Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

•Level 2—Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities; and

•Level 3—Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. Level 3 assets and liabilities include items where the determination of fair value requires significant management judgment or estimation.

The Company makes recurring fair value measurements of contingent liabilities arising from certain acquisitions and residual commission buyouts using Level 3 unobservable inputs. Contingent liabilities for residual commission buyouts are expected earnout payments related to the number of existing point-of-sale merchants that convert to full acquiring merchants. Contingent liabilities included in the purchase price of an acquisition are based on achievement of specified performance metrics as defined in the purchase agreement.

23

In conjunction with the acquisition of Online Payments Group on September 29, 2022, the Company entered into a contingent consideration agreement that requires the Company to pay up to $60.0 million if key customers of Online Payments Group contribute a certain amount of revenue for the twelve months ending September 28, 2023 and the twenty-four months ending September 28, 2024. The fair value of the contingent consideration was estimated using a Monte-Carlo simulation model, which included significant unobservable Level 3 inputs, such as projected revenues over the earnout period along with estimates for revenue volatility of 53.6% and 54.4% as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively, and the discount rate of 7.6% and 7.2% as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. See Note 2 for more information on the terms of the earnout agreement. The Company recognized fair value adjustments to the contingent liability for Online Payments Group of $7.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023, primarily due to an increase in projected revenues over the earnout period. The fair value adjustments are recognized in “Revaluation of contingent liabilities” on the Company’s unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. The estimated fair value of the contingent consideration was $40.2 million as of March 31, 2023, of which $28.0 million is recognized in “Accrued expenses and other current liabilities” and $12.2 million is recognized in “Other noncurrent liabilities” on the Company’s unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

In conjunction with the acquisition of The Giving Block on February 28, 2022, the Company entered into a contingent consideration agreement that required the Company to pay up to $246.0 million if certain revenue thresholds of the acquired business were achieved for the twelve months ending February 28, 2023. Prior to the final measurement date, the fair value of the contingent consideration was estimated using a Monte-Carlo simulation model, which included significant unobservable Level 3 inputs, such as projected revenues over the earnout period, estimates for revenue volatility, and the discount rate. See Note 2 for more information on the terms of the earnout agreement. The earnout, valued at $10.2 million as of March 31, 2023, reflects the final measurement of the earnout payment. The Company recognized a fair value adjustment to the contingent liability for The Giving Block of $(0.5) million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 due to the final measurement of the earnout payment. The fair value adjustment is recognized in “Revaluation of contingent liabilities” on the Company’s unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

In conjunction with the acquisitions of certain restaurant technology partners in 2022 and 2023, the Company entered into contingent consideration agreements that require the Company to pay up to an aggregate of $6.5 million. The fair values of the contingent consideration were estimated using Monte-Carlo simulation models, which included significant unobservable Level 3 inputs, such as projected performance over the earnout periods and discount rates ranging from 6.5% to 7.3% as of March 31, 2023 and from 5.1% to 6.7% as of December 31, 2022. See Note 2 for more information on the terms of the earnout agreements. The Company recognized fair value adjustments to the contingent liability for the restaurant technology partners of $0.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023, primarily due to an increase in expected performance over the earnout period. The estimated fair value of the contingent consideration is $2.1 million as of March 31, 2023, of which $0.5 million is recognized in “Accrued expenses and other current liabilities” and $1.6 million is recognized in “Other noncurrent liabilities” on the Company’s unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

In conjunction with residual commission buyouts executed in conjunction with asset acquisitions, the Company entered into contingent consideration agreements that require the Company to pay up to an aggregate of $24.5 million. The fair values of the contingent consideration were estimated based on projected attrition rates and other financial metrics within the respective merchant portfolios over the earnout periods. The estimated fair value of the contingent consideration related to residual commission buyouts of $9.8 million as of March 31, 2023 is recognized in “Accrued expenses and other current liabilities” on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets.

The table below provides a reconciliation of the beginning and ending balances for the Level 3 contingent liabilities:

	Three Months Ended March 31, 2023
	Contingent Liabilities for Acquisitions		Contingent Liabilities for Residual Commission Buyouts		Total Contingent Liabilities
Balance at beginning of period	$	45.2	$	10.0	$	55.2
Contingent consideration for acquisitions	0.3		—		0.3
Contingent liabilities that achieved earnout	(10.2)		(0.2)		(10.4)
Fair value adjustments	7.0		—		7.0
Balance at end of period	$	42.3	$	9.8	$	52.1

Fair value adjustments for contingent liabilities are recorded within “Revaluation of contingent liabilities” in the Company’s unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. There were no transfers into or out of Level 3 during the three months ended March 31, 2023.

24

The estimated fair value of the Company’s outstanding debt using quoted prices from over-the-counter markets, considered Level 2 inputs, was as follows:

	March 31, 2023				December 31, 2022
	Carrying Value (a)		Fair Value		Carrying Value (a)		Fair Value
2025 Convertible Notes	$	681.1	$	790.7	$	680.3	$	686.9
2027 Convertible Notes	621.6		601.1		621.0		533.7
2026 Senior Notes	442.0		427.2		441.4		423.0
Total	$	1,744.7	$	1,819.0	$	1,742.7	$	1,643.6
(a) Carrying value excludes unamortized debt issuance costs related to the Revolving Credit Facility of $0.7 million and $0.8 million as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.

The estimated fair value of the Company’s investments in securities was $56.0 million and $47.1 million as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. These non-marketable equity investments have no readily determinable fair values and are measured using the measurement alternative, which is defined as cost, less impairment, adjusted for observable price changes from orderly transactions for identical or similar investments of the same issuer. Adjustments for these investments, if any, are recorded in “Unrealized gain on investments in securities” on the Company’s unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. The Company recognized fair value adjustments to its investments in securities of $8.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023, the entire amount of which related to securities still held as of March 31, 2023, based on secondary offerings of identical securities by the respective companies in 2023. The Company has recognized cumulative fair value adjustments to its investments in securities of $24.0 million.

The estimated fair value of the Company’s crypto settlement assets and crypto settlement liabilities was $3.2 million and $1.8 million as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. There are no active markets for the Company’s crypto settlement liabilities and the corresponding crypto settlement assets. Accordingly, the Company has valued the assets and liabilities using quoted prices from active cryptocurrency exchanges for the underlying crypto assets, considered Level 2 inputs.

Other financial instruments not measured at fair value on the Company’s unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022 include cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, prepaid expenses and other current assets, other noncurrent assets, accounts payable, accrued expenses and other current liabilities, and other noncurrent liabilities, as their estimated fair values reasonably approximate their carrying value as reported on the Company’s unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

14.Income Taxes

The Company holds an economic interest in Shift4 Payments, LLC and consolidates its financial position and results. The remaining ownership of Shift4 Payments, LLC not held by the Company is considered a noncontrolling interest. Shift4 Payments, LLC is treated as a partnership for income tax reporting and its members, including the Company, are liable for federal, state, and local income taxes based on their share of the LLC’s taxable income. In addition, Shift4 Payments, LLC wholly owns various U.S. and foreign subsidiaries which are taxed as corporations for tax reporting. Taxable income or loss from these subsidiaries is not passed through to Shift4 Payments, LLC. Instead, such taxable income or loss is taxed at the corporate level subject to the prevailing corporate tax rates.

The Company has assessed the realizability of the net deferred tax assets and in that analysis has considered the relevant positive and negative evidence available to determine whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will be realized. The Company has recorded a full valuation allowance against the deferred tax assets at Shift4 Payments, Inc. as of March 31, 2023, which will be maintained until there is sufficient evidence to support the reversal of all or some portion of these allowances.

The Company’s effective tax rate was (21.4)% and (32.0)% for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2023 was different than the U.S. federal statutory income tax rate of 21% primarily due to the income allocated to the noncontrolling interest, the full valuation allowances on Shift4 Payments, Inc. and certain corporate subsidiaries in the U.S., and a $4.8 million tax benefit related to the valuation allowance release due to a legal entity restructuring. The effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2022 was different than the U.S. federal statutory income tax rate of 21% primarily due to the loss allocated to the noncontrolling interest, the full valuation allowance on Shift4 Payments, Inc. and certain corporate subsidiaries in the U.S., and a $6.4 million income tax benefit related to the valuation allowance release due to acquired deferred tax liabilities from The Giving Block.

25

Uncertain Tax Positions

The effects of uncertain tax positions are recognized in the condensed consolidated financial statements if these positions meet a “more-likely-than-not” threshold. For those uncertain tax positions that are recognized in the condensed consolidated financial statements, liabilities are established to reflect the portion of those positions it cannot conclude “more-likely-than-not” to be realized upon ultimate settlement. The Company’s policy is to recognize interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits within “Income tax (provision) benefit” in the Company’s unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. Accrued interest and penalties, if any, are included within “Deferred tax liability” in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. As of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, $8.1 million and $8.0 million, respectively, of uncertain tax positions were recognized within “Other noncurrent liabilities” in the Company’s unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, which were recognized in conjunction with acquisitions.

Tax Receivable Agreement

The Company expects to obtain an increase in its share of the tax basis in the net assets of Shift4 Payments, LLC as LLC Interests are redeemed from or exchanged by the Continuing Equity Owners, at the option of the Company, determined solely by the Company’s independent directors. The Company intends to treat any redemptions and exchanges of LLC Interests as direct purchases of LLC Interests for U.S. federal income tax purposes. These increases in tax basis may reduce the amounts that it would otherwise pay in the future to various tax authorities. In connection with the Company’s initial public offering in June 2020 and certain organizational transactions that the Company effected in connection with it, the Company entered into the TRA with the Continuing Equity Owners.

The TRA provides for the payment by Shift4 Payments, Inc. of 85% of the amount of any tax benefits the Company actually realizes, or in some cases is deemed to realize, as a result of (i) increases in the Company’s share of the tax basis in the net assets of Shift4 Payments, LLC resulting from any redemptions or exchanges of LLC Interests, (ii) tax basis increases attributable to payments made under the TRA, and (iii) deductions attributable to imputed interest pursuant to the TRA. The Company expects to benefit from the remaining 15% of any of cash savings that it realizes.

As of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company recognized a TRA liability of $2.2 million and $1.7 million, respectively, after concluding it was probable that, based on estimates of future taxable income, the Company will realize tax benefits associated with the TRA. The liability is recognized in “Other noncurrent liabilities” on the Company’s unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. As of March 31, 2023, the Company has not recognized the remaining $291.6 million liability under the TRA after concluding it was not probable that the Company will be able to realize the remaining tax benefits based on estimates of future taxable income. No payments were made to the Continuing Equity Owners pursuant to the TRA during the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022. The estimation of liability under the tax receivable agreement is by its nature imprecise and subject to significant assumptions regarding the amount, character, and timing of the taxable income of Shift4 Payments, Inc. in the future. If the valuation allowance recorded against the deferred tax assets applicable to the tax attributes referenced above is released in a future period, the remaining TRA liability may be considered probable at that time and recorded within earnings.

If Rook were to exchange any of its LLC Interests subsequent to March 31, 2023, such exchanges could generate additional deferred tax assets and TRA liability. As of December 31, 2022, the estimated impact of the exchange of all of Rook’s LLC Interests was an additional deferred tax asset of approximately $457.3 million and a TRA liability of approximately $388.7 million. The actual amounts as of March 31, 2023 could differ materially from those disclosed as of December 31, 2022 as they are impacted by the timing of the exchanges, the valuation of corporate subsidiaries, the price of the Company’s shares of Class A common stock at the time of the exchange, and the tax rates then in effect.

15.Lease Agreements

As Lessor

The Company provides hardware, including terminals and point-of-sale equipment, to its merchants under operating leases. The Company’s operating leases generally include options to extend the contract for successive one-year periods. Extension options are not included in the determination of lease income unless, at lease inception, it is reasonably certain that the option will be exercised. The Company’s operating leases do not generally include purchase options.

Lease payments received are recognized as income on a straight-line basis over the term of the agreement in accordance with ASC 606 and classified as gross revenue on the Company’s unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Total lease income for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022 was $5.3 million and $4.3 million, respectively. Variable lease income was not material for the three months ended March 31, 2023 or 2022.

26

The Company expects to receive future minimum lease payments for hardware provided under the Company’s SaaS agreements of $11.8 million from April 1, 2023 through March 31, 2024. See Note 3 and Note 9 for more information on the accounting for these operating leases.

16.Related Party Transactions

The Company has a service agreement with Jared Isaacman, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and founder (“Founder”), including access to aircrafts and a property. Total expense for this service, which is included in “General and administrative expenses” in the Company’s unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations, was $0.2 million for the three months ended both March 31, 2023 and 2022. There were no amounts outstanding at March 31, 2023 or December 31, 2022. In addition, during the three months ended March 31, 2023, the Company made $1.4 million of distributions related to income taxes paid on behalf of Rook, which are included in “Distributions to noncontrolling interests” in the Company’s unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

In November 2021, the Company implemented a one-time discretionary equity award program for non-management employees. The Founder agreed to fund 50% of this program through a contribution of shares of his Class C common stock. As of March 31, 2023, the expected contribution from the Founder totaled 767,748 shares of his Class C common stock. The one-time discretionary equity award program will vest in three equal installments annually beginning in the third year. Vesting of the awards is subject to the continued employment of non-management employees.

Rook has entered into margin loan agreements, pursuant to which, in addition to other collateral, it has pledged LLC Interests and shares of the Company’s Class A and Class B common stock (collectively, “Rook Units”) to secure a margin loan. If Rook were to default on its obligations under the margin loan and fail to cure such default, the lender would have the right to exchange and sell up to 15,000,000 Rook units to satisfy Rook’s obligation.

In March 2021, the Founder, through a wholly-owned special purpose vehicle (“SPV”), entered into a variable prepaid forward contract (“VPF Contract”) with an unaffiliated dealer (“Dealer”), covering approximately 2.0 million shares of the Company’s Class A common stock. The VPF Contract settles on specified dates in February, March and April 2023, at which time the actual number of shares of the Company’s Class A common stock to be delivered by the SPV will be determined based on the price of the Company’s Class A common stock on such dates relative to the forward floor price of $73.19 per share and the forward cap price of $137.24 per share, with the aggregate number not to exceed approximately 2.0 million shares, which is the number of shares of the Company’s Class B common stock and LLC units pledged by Rook to secure its obligations under the contract. Subject to certain conditions, the SPV can also elect to settle the VPF Contract in cash and thereby retain full ownership of the pledged shares and units. During the three months ended March 31, 2023, 1,666,665 shares of the Company’s Class B common stock owned by the SPV were effectively converted to Class A common stock and delivered to the SPV through the VPF Contract.

In September 2021, the Founder, through the SPV, entered into two VPF Contracts with a Dealer, one covering approximately 2.18 million shares of the Company’s Class A common stock and the other covering approximately 2.26 million shares of the Company’s Class A common stock. The VPF Contracts are both scheduled to settle on specified dates in June, July, August and September 2024, at which time the actual number of shares of the Company’s Class A common stock to be delivered by the SPV will be determined based on the price of the Company’s Class A common stock on such dates relative to the forward floor price of approximately $66.424 per share and the forward cap price of approximately $112.09 per share for the contract covering approximately 2.18 million shares of the Company’s Class A common stock, and to the forward floor price of $66.424 per share and the forward cap price of approximately $120.39 per share for the contract covering approximately 2.26 million shares of the Company’s Class A common stock, with the aggregate number not to exceed approximately 4.44 million shares, which is the aggregate number of shares of Company’s Class B common stock and their associated common units of Shift4 Payments, LLC pledged by the SPV to secure its obligations under the contracts. Subject to certain conditions, the SPV can also elect to settle the VPF Contracts in cash and thereby retain full ownership of the pledged shares and units.

If Rook were to default on its obligations under the VPF Contracts and fail to cure such default, the Dealer would have the right to exchange the pledged Class B stock and LLC interests for an equal number of the Company’s Class A common stock, and sell such Class A common stock to satisfy Rook’s obligation.

17.Commitments and Contingencies

From time to time, the Company may become involved in various lawsuits and legal proceedings, which arise, in the ordinary course of business. However, litigation is subject to inherent uncertainties, and an adverse result in these, or other matters, may arise from time to time that may harm the Company’s business. In August 2021, TSYS, a Global Payments company and an important vendor to the Company, experienced a significant platform outage resulting in a payment processing service disruption that lasted for several hours. TSYS is utilized by many major credit card issuers and payment processors, which meant the impact of the outage was felt by many card-accepting merchants and cardholders across the nation. The Company took steps to lessen the financial impact to its merchants and partners due to the TSYS outage and is seeking compensation through a variety of channels, including engaging with the responsible party.

The Company is currently not aware of any legal proceedings or claims that the Company believes will have a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition or operating results.

18.Stockholders’ Equity

Stock Repurchases

In 2021 and 2022, the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) authorized three sequential stock repurchase programs (the “Programs”), pursuant to which the Company was authorized to repurchase up to an aggregate of $250.0 million of shares of its Class A common stock through December 31, 2022. Repurchases under the Programs were able to be made in the open market, in privately negotiated transactions or otherwise, with the amount and timing of repurchases depending on market conditions and corporate needs. Open market repurchases were structured to occur within the pricing and volume requirements of Rule 10b-18. The third of these Programs expired on December 31, 2022.

During the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company repurchased 301,510 shares of Class A common stock under the Programs for $17.2 million, including commissions paid, at an average price paid of $56.78 per share.

Repurchased shares of common stock that have not been retired are recorded as “Treasury stock” on the Company’s unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Upon retirement, the Company allocates the value of treasury stock between Additional paid-in capital and Retained earnings. There were no shares of treasury stock outstanding as of March 31, 2023 or December 31, 2022.

19.Noncontrolling Interests

20.Equity-based Compensation

2020 Incentive Award Plan

The Company’s 2020 Incentive Award Plan, as amended and restated in June 2022 (the “Restated Equity Plan”), provides for the grant of stock options, restricted stock dividend equivalents, stock payments, restricted stock units (“RSUs”), performance restricted stock units (“PRSUs”), stock appreciation rights, and other stock or cash awards. The number of shares available for issuance is subject to an annual increase on the first day of each year beginning in 2023 and ending in and including 2032, equal to the lesser of (1) 2% of the shares outstanding (on an as-converted basis, taking into account any and all securities convertible into, or exercisable, exchangeable or redeemable for, shares of Class A common stock (including LLC Interests of Shift4 Payments, LLC)) on the last day of the immediately preceding fiscal year and (2) such smaller number of shares as determined by the Board.

As of March 31, 2023, a maximum of 721,911 shares of the Company’s Class A common stock were available for issuance under the Restated Equity Plan.

RSUs and PRSUs

RSUs represent the right to receive shares of the Company’s Class A common stock at a specified date in the future.

The RSU activity for the three months ended March 31, 2023 was as follows:

	Three Months Ended March 31, 2023
	Number of RSUs	Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value
Unvested balance at December 31, 2022	2,465,355	$	47.57
Granted	1,245,155	64.30
Vested	(194,613)	60.59
Forfeited or cancelled	(129,176)	53.40
Unvested balance at March 31, 2023	3,386,721	$	52.75

The grant date fair value of RSUs and PRSUs subject to continued service or those that vest immediately was determined based on the price of the Company’s Class A common stock on the grant date (or, in the case of the RSUs granted in connection with the IPO, the IPO price of $23.00 per share). The grant date fair value of the RSUs issued in connection with the IPO, that are not subject to continued service, was determined using the Finnerty discount for lack of marketability pricing model, taking into account the vesting provisions on the shares prior to June 2021.

The Company recognized equity-based compensation expense of $20.9 million and $16.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. As of March 31, 2023, the Company had $139.7 million of total unrecognized equity-based compensation expense related to outstanding RSUs and PRSUs, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 3.27 years.

21.Basic and Diluted Net Income (Loss) per Share

Basic net income (loss) per share has been computed by dividing net income (loss) attributable to common shareholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the same period. Shares issued during the period and shares reacquired during the period are weighted for the portion of the period in which the shares were outstanding. Diluted net income (loss) per share has been computed in a manner consistent with that of basic net income (loss) per share while giving effect to all shares of potentially dilutive common stock that were outstanding during the period. The following table presents the calculation of basic and diluted net income (loss) per share under the two-class method:

	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2023		2022
Net income (loss)	$	20.4	$	(13.2)
Less: Net income (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interests	5.6		(5.7)
Net income (loss) attributable to Shift4 Payments, Inc.	14.8		(7.5)
Adjustment to net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders	—		—
Net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders	$	14.8	$	(7.5)
Numerator - allocation of net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders:
Net income (loss) allocated to Class A common stock - basic	$	14.2	$	(6.9)
Reallocation of net income attributable to common stockholders from assumed conversion of LLC interests and assumed vesting of RSUs	5.7		—
Net income (loss) allocated to Class A common stock - diluted	$	19.9	$	(6.9)
Net income (loss) allocated to Class C common stock - basic	$	0.6	$	(0.6)
Reallocation of net income attributable to common stockholders from assumed conversion of LLC interests	(0.1)		—
Net income (loss) allocated to Class C common stock - diluted	$	0.5	$	(0.6)
Denominator:
Weighted average shares of Class A common stock outstanding - basic	55,236,204		52,119,378
Effect of dilutive securities:
LLC Interests	25,533,462		—
RSUs	1,469,038		—
Weighted average shares of Class A common stock outstanding - diluted	82,238,704		52,119,378
Weighted average shares of Class C common stock outstanding - basic and diluted	2,241,648		4,573,372
Net income (loss) per share - Basic:
Class A common stock	$	0.26	$	(0.13)
Class C common stock	$	0.26	$	(0.13)
Net income (loss) per share - Diluted:
Class A Common Stock	$	0.24	$	(0.13)
Class C Common Stock	$	0.24	$	(0.13)

The following were excluded from the calculation of diluted net income (loss) per share as the effect would be anti-dilutive:

	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2023	2022
LLC Interests that convert into potential Class A common shares	—	26,272,654
RSUs and performance RSUs	6,908	2,656,675
Total	6,908	28,929,329

30

For the three months ended March 31, 2023, the Company has excluded from the calculation of diluted net income per share the effect of the following:

•the conversion of the 2025 Convertible Notes and 2027 Convertible Notes, as the last reported sales price of the Company’s Class A common stock was not greater than or equal to 130% of the conversion price for 20 trading days during a period of 30 consecutive trading days prior to March 31, 2023, per the terms of the agreement, and

•shares of the Company’s Class A common stock to be issued in connection with the earnouts due to the former shareholders of Online Payments Group and certain restaurant technology partners. See Note 2 for more information about shares to be issued in connection with earnouts.

For the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company has excluded from the calculation of diluted net loss per share the effect of the following:

•the conversion of the 2025 Convertible Notes and 2027 Convertible Notes, as the last reported sales price of the Company’s Class A common stock was not greater than or equal to 130% of the conversion price for 20 trading days during a period of 30 consecutive trading days prior to March 31, 2022, per the terms of the agreement, and

•shares of the Company’s Class A common stock to be issued in connection with the earnout due to the former shareholders of The Giving Block. See Note 2 for more information about shares to be issued in connection with earnouts.

The Company will pay in cash the $690.0 million principal of the 2025 Convertible Notes and the $632.5 million principal of the 2027 Convertible Notes with any excess to be paid or delivered in cash or shares of the Company’s Class A common stock or a combination of both at the Company’s election.

22.Supplemental Cash Flows Information

23.Segments

Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise for which discrete financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) for the purposes of allocating resources and evaluating financial performance. The Company’s CODM is the chief executive officer, who reviews financial information on a consolidated level for purposes of allocating resources and evaluating financial performance, and as such, the Company’s operations constitute one operating segment and one reportable segment.

The following table summarizes gross revenue by revenue type:

	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2023		2022
Payments-based revenue	$	511.0	$	371.5
Subscription and other revenues	36.0		30.4
Gross revenue	$	547.0	$	401.9

24.Subsequent Events

Acquisition

Subsequent to March 31, 2023, the Company acquired Focus POS Systems for $45.0 million of total purchase consideration, comprised of $35.0 million of cash and $10.0 million of shares of the Company’s Class A common stock. Due to the timing of this acquisition, the initial accounting for the acquisition, including the valuation of assets and liabilities acquired, is incomplete. As such, the Company is unable to disclose certain information, including the preliminary fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed, at this time.

Material Agreements

Prior to an amendment to the Company’s agreement with its sponsor bank, as discussed in Note 1, Settlement Funds to facilitate gross card transaction deposits for those customers the Company bills on a monthly, versus a daily basis funds were deposited at the sponsor bank and included within “Accounts receivable, net” on the Company’s unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets prior to December 2022.

In April 2023, the Company finalized an amendment which established a new long-term agreement with its sponsor bank, which augments services and expands tiered pricing that lowers the Company’s cost as transaction volume increases. The agreement also establishes by what means the Company’s cash will be restricted based on settlement activity flows. Under this agreement, the Company is required to maintain an account in the Company’s name at the sponsor bank, with a minimum balance equal to the greater of $25.0 million or 110% of the highest merchant settlement account overdraft balance over a rolling 90-day period. This amount will fluctuate based on end-to-end payment volumes and the timing of billing cycles and will be recognized as “Restricted cash” on the Company’s unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Stock Repurchase Program

On May 3, 2023, the Board authorized a new stock repurchase program (the “May 2023 Program”), pursuant to which the Company is authorized to repurchase up to $250.0 million of shares of its Class A common stock through December 31, 2023.

Repurchases under the May 2023 Program may be made in the open market, in privately negotiated transactions or otherwise, with the amount and timing of repurchases depending on market conditions and corporate needs. Open market repurchases will be structured to occur within the pricing and volume requirements of Rule 10b-18. The Company may also, from time to time, enter into Rule 10b5-1 plans to facilitate repurchases of its shares pursuant to the May 2023 Program.

The May 2023 Program does not obligate the Company to acquire any particular amount of common stock. The May 2023 Program may be extended, modified, suspended or discontinued at any time at the Company’s discretion.

Overview

We are a leading independent provider of software and payment processing solutions in the United States (“U.S.”) based on total volume of payments processed. We have achieved our leadership position through decades of solving business and operational challenges facing our customers’ overall commerce needs. Our merchants range in size from small owner-operated local businesses to multinational enterprises conducting commerce throughout the world. We distribute our services through a scaled network of seasoned internal sales and support teams, as well as through our network of software partners. Our software partners are comprised of independent software vendors (“ISVs”) and value-added resellers (“VARs”). For our software partners, we offer a single integration to a global end-to-end payment offering, a proprietary gateway and a robust suite of technology solutions to enhance the value of their software and simplify payment acceptance. For our merchants, we provide a seamless, unified consumer experience and fulfill business needs that would otherwise require multiple software, hardware and payment vendors.

At the heart of our business is our payments platform. Our payments platform is a full suite of integrated payment products and services that can be used across multiple channels (in-store, online, mobile and tablet-based) and industry verticals, including:

•end-to-end payment processing for a broad range of payment types;

•merchant acquiring;

•proprietary omni-channel gateway capable of multiple methods of mobile, contactless and QR code-based payments;

•complementary software integrations;

•full eCommerce capabilities, including web-store design, hosting, shopping cart management and fulfillment integrations;

•integrated and mobile point of sale (“POS”) solutions;

•security and risk management solutions; and

•reporting and analytical tools.

33

We also offer innovative technology solutions that go beyond payment processing. Some of our solutions are developed in-house, such as business intelligence and POS software, while others are powered by our network of complementary third-party applications. Our focus on innovation, combined with our product-driven culture, enables us to create scalable technology solutions that benefit from an extensive library of intellectual property.

In addition to our scaled network of seasoned internal sales and support teams, we market and sell our solutions through a diversified network of thousands of software partners, which consists of ISVs and VARs. ISVs are technology providers that develop commerce-enabling software suites with which they can bundle our payments platform. VARs are organizations that provide distribution support for ISVs and act as trusted and localized service providers to merchants by providing them with software and services. Together, our ISVs and VARs provide us immense distribution scale and provide our merchants with front-line service and support.

Our end-to-end payments offering combines our payments platform, including our proprietary gateway and breadth of software integrations, and our suite of technology solutions to create a compelling value proposition for our merchants. Our end-to-end payment volume was $22.3 billion and $13.4 billion for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

Our merchants range in size from small owner-operated local businesses to multinational enterprises conducting commerce throughout the world. We operate across numerous verticals including food and beverage, hospitality, stadiums and arenas, gaming, specialty retail, non-profits, eCommerce, and exciting technology companies. We expect our newest verticals, including stadiums and arenas, gaming, non-profits, and exciting technology companies, to contribute to our end-to-end payment volume significantly more in future periods than they have to date.

Pending Acquisition

Finaro

On March 1, 2022, we entered into a definitive agreement to acquire Credorax, Inc. d/b/a Finaro (“Finaro”) for $200.0 million in cash, 6,439,316 shares of our Class A common stock with a value of approximately $325.0 million as of March 1, 2022, determined by the volume weighted average price for the thirty trading days preceding the date of the agreement, and a performance-based earnout of up to $50.0 million in shares of our Class A common stock. Consummation of the merger will occur within 60 days of receiving regulatory approvals, which we expect to receive in 2023. Finaro is a cross-border eCommerce platform and bank specializing in solving complex payment problems for multi-national merchants that we believe will accelerate our growth in international markets.

Factors Impacting Our Business and Results of Operations

In general, our results of operations are impacted by factors such as the adoption of software solutions that are integrated with our payment solutions, continued investment in our core capabilities, ongoing pursuit of strategic acquisitions, and macro-level economic trends.

Increased adoption of software-integrated payments. We primarily generate revenue through fees assessed on end-to-end payment volume initiated through our internal sales team and our integrated software partners. These fees include volume-based payments, transaction fees and subscription fees for software and technology solutions. We expect to continue to grow through both our internal sales team and integrated software partners, who have proven to be an effective and efficient way of acquiring new merchants and servicing these relationships.

Continued focus on converting our gateway-only customers to our end-to-end payments offering. Currently, a large percentage of our merchant base relies only on our proprietary gateway technology solution to process card-based payments. However, as more of these gateway-only merchants choose to also adopt our end-to-end payment solutions, our revenue per merchant and merchant retention are expected to increase given the fees we generate on end-to-end payment processing services are significantly higher than the per transaction fees we earn on gateway-only services. We have also implemented price increases for those merchants who have chosen to not adopt our end-to-end payment solutions.

Mix of our merchant base. We continue to experience a shift to higher average revenue and higher average volume per merchant. The revenue and volume contribution of each merchant within our portfolio is affected by several factors, including the amount of payment volume processed per merchant, the industry vertical in which the merchant operates, and the number of solutions implemented by the merchant. The size and sophistication of our average merchant continues to increase, and we may experience shifts in the average revenue per merchant and the weighted average pricing of the portfolio.

Ability to attract and retain internal sales team and software partners. Our ability to attract and retain our internal sales team and software partners impacts our future growth and our ability to service our existing base of merchants. To facilitate internal talent attraction and retention, we strive to make Shift4 a diverse, inclusive and safe workplace, with opportunities for our employees to grow and develop in their careers, supported by strong compensation, benefits and health and wellness programs. It is also critical we maintain our product leadership through continued investment in innovative technology solutions as a means to ensure we retain our current software partners while attracting new software partners.

34

Investment in product, distribution and operations. We make significant investments in both new product development and existing product enhancements, such as mobile POS, cloud enablement for our software partners’ existing systems, and contactless payments, including QR code based mobile payment technologies. New product features and functionality are brought to market through varied distribution and promotional activities, including collaborative efforts with industry leading software providers, tradeshows, and customer conferences. Further, we will continue to invest in operational support in order to maintain service levels expected by our merchant customers. We believe these investments in product development and software integrations will continue to lead to long-term growth and profitability.

Pursuit of strategic acquisitions. From time to time, we may pursue strategic acquisitions as part of our ongoing growth strategy that includes adding complementary technology capabilities to service our base of customers and adding critical sales and support capabilities within a specific industry vertical or geography. While these acquisitions are intended to add long-term value, in the short term they may add redundant operating expenses or additional carrying costs until the underlying value is unlocked.

Impact of international operations. We are subject to foreign exchange risk due to fluctuations in exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and the foreign currencies of countries in which we operate. Additionally, international operations expose us to additional risks and subject us to international laws and regulations. While our foreign exchange and international operating risks have historically been negligible, we may increasingly be subject to said risks as we continue our international expansion efforts.

Economic conditions and resulting consumer spending trends. Changes in macro-level consumer spending trends, including as a result of inflation and reduced consumer confidence and discretionary spending, could affect the amount of volume processed on our platform, thus resulting in fluctuations in our quarterly reported revenue. Our quarterly revenue is also impacted by seasonal, consumer spending habit patterns, which historically have resulted in higher volumes and revenue being reported in our second and third fiscal quarters.

Key Financial Definitions

The following briefly describes the components of revenue and expenses as presented in the accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Gross revenue consists primarily of payments-based revenue and subscription and other revenues:

Payments-based revenue includes fees for payment processing services and gateway services. Payment processing fees are primarily driven as a percentage of end-to-end payment volume. They may also have a fixed fee, a minimum monthly usage fee and a fee based on transactions. Gateway services, data encryption and tokenization fees are primarily driven by per transaction fees as well as monthly usage fees.

Subscription and other revenues include software as a service (“SaaS”) fees for POS systems and terminals provided to merchants. POS and terminal SaaS fees are assessed based on the type and quantity of equipment deployed to the merchant. SaaS fees also include statement fees, fees for our proprietary business intelligence software, annual fees, regulatory compliance fees and other miscellaneous services such as help desk support and warranties on equipment. Subscription and other revenues also includes revenue derived from software license sales, hardware sales, third-party residuals and fees charged for technology support.

Cost of sales consists of interchange and processing fees, residual commissions, equipment and other costs of sales:

Interchange and processing fees represent payments to card issuing banks and assessments paid to card associations based on transaction processing volume. These also include fees incurred by third-parties for data transmission and settlement of funds, such as processors and sponsor banks.

Residual commissions represent monthly payments to third-party distribution partners. These costs are typically based on a percentage of payment-based revenue.

Equipment represents our costs of devices that are purchased by the merchant.

Other costs of sales includes amortization of capitalized software development costs, capitalized software, acquired technology and capitalized customer acquisition costs. It also includes incentives and shipping and handling costs related to the delivery of devices. Capitalized software development costs are amortized using the straight-line method on a product-by-product basis over the estimated useful life of the software. Capitalized software, acquired technology and capitalized customer acquisition costs are amortized on a straight-line basis in accordance with our accounting policies.

General and administrative expenses consist primarily of compensation, benefits and other expenses associated with corporate management, finance, human resources, shared services, information technology and other activities.

Revaluation of contingent liabilities represents adjustments to the fair value of contingent liabilities associated with acquisitions and residual commission buyouts.

35

Depreciation and amortization expense consists of depreciation and amortization expenses related to merchant relationships, trademarks and trade names, residual commission buyouts, equipment, leasehold improvements, other intangible assets, and property, plant and equipment. We depreciate and amortize our assets on a straight-line basis in accordance with our accounting policies. Leasehold improvements are depreciated over the lesser of the estimated life of the leasehold improvement or the remaining lease term. Maintenance and repairs, which do not extend the useful life of the respective assets, are charged to expense as incurred. Intangible assets are amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives which range from two years to twenty years.

Professional fees consists of costs incurred for accounting, tax, legal, and consulting services.

Advertising and marketing expenses relate to costs incurred to participate in industry tradeshows and dealer conferences, advertising initiatives to build brand awareness, and expenses to fulfill loyalty program rewards earned by software partners.

Interest income primarily consists of interest income earned on our cash and cash equivalents.

Other income, net primarily consists of other non-operating items.

Unrealized gain on investments in securities represents adjustments to the fair value of our investments in non-marketable securities.

Change in TRA liability represents adjustments to the Tax Receivable Agreement (“TRA”) liability.

Interest expense consists of interest costs incurred on our borrowings and amortization of capitalized financing costs.

Income tax (provision) benefit represents federal, state and local taxes based on income in multiple jurisdictions, in addition to income taxes incurred in foreign jurisdictions.

Net income (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interests arises from net income (loss) from the non-owned portion of businesses where we have a controlling interest but less than 100% ownership. This represents the noncontrolling interests in Shift4 Payments, LLC and its consolidated subsidiaries, which is comprised of the income (loss) allocated to Continuing Equity Owners as a result of their proportional ownership of LLC Interests.

Gross revenue

Gross revenue was $547.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023, compared to $401.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022, an increase of $145.1 million or 36.1%. Gross revenue is comprised of payments-based revenue and subscription and other revenues.

Payments-based revenue was $511.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023, compared to $371.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022, an increase of $139.5 million or 37.6%. The increase in payments-based revenue was primarily driven by the increase in end-to-end payment volume of $8.8 billion, or 65.8%, for the three months ended March 31, 2023, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2022.

Subscription and other revenues were $36.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023, compared to $30.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022, an increase of $5.6 million or 18.4%. The increase in subscription and other revenues was primarily driven by our recent acquisitions, which collectively contributed an additional $3.8 million to subscription and other revenues in the three months ended March 31, 2023, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2022. In addition, hardware sales revenue increased $1.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2022.

Network fees

Network fees were $347.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023, compared to $253.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022, an increase of $93.9 million or 37.1%. This increase was correlated with the increase in end-to-end payment volume as described above.

Gross revenue less network fees was $200.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023, compared to $148.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022, an increase of $51.2 million or 34.4%. The increase in gross revenue less network fees was largely correlated with the increase in end-to-end payment volume. See “Key Performance Indicators and Non-GAAP Measures” below for a reconciliation of gross profit to gross revenue less network fees.

Other costs of sales

Other costs of sales was $54.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023, compared to $64.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022, a decrease of $9.6 million, or 15.0%. This decrease was primarily driven by:

•lower residual commissions, which decreased other costs of sales $14.2 million, primarily driven by our strategic buyout program executed in the third quarter of 2022; and

•lower capitalized customer acquisition cost amortization, which decreased other costs of sales $2.4 million, primarily due to the impact of changing the useful life of capitalized customer acquisition costs from three years to four years, effective October 1, 2022;

partially offset by:

•higher capitalized software development cost amortization, which increased other costs of sales $2.8 million, primarily due to an increase in capitalized costs; and

•our recent acquisitions, which collectively increased other costs of sales $2.0 million.

General and administrative expenses

General and administrative expenses were $85.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023, compared to $66.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022, an increase of $19.5 million or 29.5%. The increase was primarily driven by our recent acquisitions, which collectively increased general and administrative expenses $8.3 million in the three months ended March 31, 2023 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2022. In addition, compensation and other employee-related expenses increased by $7.2 million primarily as a result of our continued growth and expansion.

Revaluation of contingent liabilities

Revaluation of contingent liabilities of $7.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 is primarily driven by fair value adjustments to contingent liabilities arising from acquisitions we completed in 2022.

37

Depreciation and amortization expense

Depreciation and amortization expense was $35.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023, compared to $17.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022, an increase of $18.0 million or 104.0%. The increase was primarily driven by higher residual commission buyout amortization of $19.2 million due to the significant amount of residual commission buyouts completed in 2022. In addition, amortization of new intangible assets as a result of acquisitions collectively increased amortization expense $3.1 million in the three months ended March 31, 2023. This is offset by a decline in other intangible asset amortization of $4.7 million in the three months ended March 31, 2023, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2022, driven by intangibles that reached the end of their useful life.

Professional fees

Professional fees were $6.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023, compared to $10.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022, a decrease of $4.0 million or 39.6%. The decrease was primarily driven by lower acquisition-related costs, in addition to transaction-related expenses associated with a consent solicitation for the 2026 Senior Notes in March 2022.

Interest income

Interest income was $7.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023, consisting primarily of interest income earned on our cash and cash equivalents. We had immaterial interest income for the three months ended March 31, 2022.

Unrealized gain on investments in securities

The unrealized gain on investments in securities resulted in $8.9 million of non-cash income for the three months ended March 31, 2023. There was no corresponding income for the three months ended March 31, 2022. See Note 13 to the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for more information on our investments in securities.

Change in TRA liability

The change in TRA liability resulted in $0.5 million of non-cash expense for the three months ended March 31, 2023. There was no corresponding expense for the three months ended March 31, 2022. See Note 14 to the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for more information on the TRA.

Income tax benefit

The effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2023 was (21.4)%, compared to the effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2022 of (32.0)%.

The effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2023 was different than the U.S. federal statutory income tax rate of 21% primarily due to the income allocated to the noncontrolling interest, the full valuation allowances on Shift4 Payments, Inc. and certain corporate subsidiaries in the U.S., and a $4.8 million tax benefit related to the valuation allowance release due to a legal entity restructuring. The effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2022 was different than the U.S. federal statutory income tax rate of 21% primarily due to the loss allocated to the noncontrolling interest, the full valuation allowance on Shift4 Payments, Inc. and certain corporate subsidiaries in the United States, and a $6.4 million income tax benefit related to the valuation allowance release due to acquired deferred tax liabilities from The Giving Block.

Net income (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interests

Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests of Shift4 Payments, LLC was $5.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023, compared to net loss attributable to noncontrolling interests of $5.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022.

Key Performance Indicators and Non-GAAP Measures

The following table sets forth our key performance indicators and non-GAAP measures for the periods presented:

	Three Months Ended March 31,
(in millions)	2023		2022
End-to-end payment volume	$	22,256.9	$	13,420.9
Gross revenue less network fees	200.0		148.8
EBITDA	64.9		17.6
Adjusted EBITDA	89.3		44.3

End-to-end payment volume

End-to-end payment volume is defined as the total dollar amount of payments that we deliver for settlement on behalf of our merchants. Included in end-to-end volume are dollars routed via our international payments platform and alternative payment methods, including cryptocurrency donations, plus volume we route to one or more third party merchant acquirers on behalf of strategic enterprise merchant relationships. This volume does not include volume processed through our legacy gateway-only offering.

Gross revenue less network fees, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA

We use supplemental measures of our performance which are derived from our consolidated financial information but which are not presented in our consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP. These non-GAAP financial measures include: gross revenue less network fees, which includes interchange and assessment fees; earnings before interest expense, interest income, income taxes, depreciation, and amortization (“EBITDA”); and Adjusted EBITDA.

Gross revenue less network fees represents a key performance metric that management uses to measure changes in the mix and value derived from our customer base as we continue to execute our strategy to expand our reach to serve larger, complex merchants.

Adjusted EBITDA is the primary financial performance measure used by management to evaluate its business and monitor results of operations. Adjusted EBITDA represents EBITDA further adjusted for certain non-cash and other nonrecurring items that management believes are not indicative of ongoing operations. These adjustments include acquisition, restructuring and integration costs, revaluation of contingent liabilities, unrealized gain (loss) on investments in securities, change in TRA liability, equity-based compensation expense, and other nonrecurring items. The financial impact of certain elements of these activities is often largely relative to our overall financial performance and can adversely affect the comparability of our operating results and investors’ ability to analyze the business from period to period.

We use non-GAAP financial measures to supplement financial information presented on a GAAP basis. We believe that excluding certain items from our GAAP results allows management to better understand our consolidated financial performance from period to period and better project our future consolidated financial performance as forecasts are developed at a level of detail different from that used to prepare GAAP-based financial measures. Moreover, we believe these non-GAAP financial measures provide our stakeholders with useful information to help them evaluate our operating results by facilitating an enhanced understanding of our operating performance and enabling them to make more meaningful period to period comparisons. There are limitations to the use of the non-GAAP financial measures presented in this Quarterly Report. Our non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. Other companies, including companies in our industry, may calculate non-GAAP financial measures differently than we do, limiting the usefulness of those measures for comparative purposes.

The non-GAAP financial measures are not meant to be considered as indicators of performance in isolation from, or as a substitute for, net income (loss) prepared in accordance with GAAP, and should be read only in conjunction with financial information presented on a GAAP basis. Reconciliations of gross revenue less network fees, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA to its most directly comparable GAAP financial measure are presented below. We encourage you to review the reconciliations in conjunction with the presentation of the non-GAAP financial measures for each of the periods presented. In future fiscal periods, we may exclude such items and may incur income and expenses similar to these excluded items.

Reconciliations of gross revenue less network fees, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA

The tables below provide reconciliations of gross profit to gross revenue less network fees and net income (loss) on a consolidated basis for the periods presented to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Overview

We have historically sourced our liquidity requirements primarily with cash flow from operations and, when needed, with debt borrowings or equity transactions. The principal uses for liquidity have been debt service, capital expenditures (including research and development) and funds required to finance acquisitions.

We do not intend to pay cash dividends on our Class A common stock in the foreseeable future. Shift4 Payments, Inc. is a holding company that does not conduct any business operations of its own. As a result, Shift4 Payments, Inc.’s ability to pay cash dividends on its common stock, if any, is dependent upon cash dividends and distributions and other transfers from Shift4 Payments, LLC. The amounts available to Shift4 Payments, Inc. to pay cash dividends are subject to the covenants and distribution restrictions in its subsidiaries’ agreements governing its indebtedness, including covenants in such agreements providing that the payments of dividends or other distributions are subject to annual limitations based on our market capitalization.

The following table sets forth summary cash flow information for the periods presented:

	Three Months Ended March 31,
(in millions)	2023		2022
Net cash provided by operating activities	$	79.4	$	30.8
Net cash used in investing activities	(31.4)		(37.6)
Net cash used in financing activities	(7.0)		(35.7)
Effect of exchange rate changes on cash and cash equivalents	0.4		—
Change in cash and cash equivalents	$	41.4	$	(42.5)

Operating activities

Net cash provided by operating activities consists of net income (loss) adjusted for certain non-cash items and changes in other assets and liabilities.

For the three months ended March 31, 2023, net cash provided by operating activities of $79.4 million was primarily a result of:

•net income of $20.4 million adjusted for non-cash expenses, including depreciation and amortization of $47.6 million, equity-based compensation of $20.9 million, revaluation of contingent liabilities of $7.0 million, and unrealized gain on investments in securities of $(8.9) million;

partially offset by:

•an impact from working capital of $(8.1) million.

For the three months ended March 31, 2022, net cash provided by operating activities of $30.8 million was primarily a result of:

•net loss of $13.2 million, adjusted for non-cash expenses, including depreciation and amortization of $29.1 million, equity-based compensation of $16.9 million, deferred income taxes of $(6.3) million, and provision for bad debts of $3.0 million;

partially offset by:

•an impact from working capital of $(0.9) million, which includes $4.8 million of funds deposited in our sponsor bank merchant settlement account to facilitate gross card transaction deposits for those customers we bill on a monthly, versus a daily basis.

Investing activities

Net cash used in investing activities includes cash paid for acquisitions, residual commission buyouts, purchases of property, plant and equipment, purchases of equipment to be leased, investments in securities, and capitalized software development costs.

Net cash used in investing activities was $31.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023, a decrease of $6.2 million, compared to net cash used in investing activities of $37.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022. This decrease was primarily the result of:

•the acquisition of The Giving Block in March 2022 for $106.9 million in aggregate purchase consideration, including $12.6 million in cash, net of cash acquired of $4.2 million;

partially offset by:

•higher purchases of equipment to be leased of $4.8 million.

41

Financing activities

Net cash used in financing activities was $7.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023, a decrease of $28.7 million, compared to net cash used in financing activities of $35.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022. This decrease was primarily the result of:

•payments for the repurchase of common stock of $18.7 million during the three months ended March 31, 2022;

•lower employee taxes paid on vested RSUs of $6.9 million; and

•payments associated with solicitation for the 2026 Senior Notes in March 2022 of $4.5 million.

Convertible Notes, Senior Notes and Revolving Credit Facility

As of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, we had $1,772.5 million total principal amount of debt outstanding, including $690.0 million of 2025 Convertible Notes, $632.5 million of 2027 Convertible Notes, and $450.0 million of 2026 Senior Notes. See Note 11 to the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for more information about our debt.

The Revolving Credit Facility has a borrowing capacity of $100.0 million. As of March 31, 2023, we had no outstanding borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility.

Cash Requirements

Our material cash requirements include the following contractual obligations.

Debt

As of March 31, 2023, we had $1,772.5 million of fixed rate debt principal outstanding with maturities beginning in 2025. Future interest payments associated with the outstanding debt total $97.5 million, with $24.0 million payable within twelve months.

Contingent Liabilities

As of March 31, 2023, the fair value of contingent liabilities to potentially be paid out in cash was $31.7 million, with $31.4 million payable within twelve months. As of March 31, 2023, the maximum amount of contingent liabilities to potentially be paid out in cash was $58.0 million, with $55.5 million payable within twelve months.

Leases

As of March 31, 2023, we are obligated under non-cancellable operating leases for our premises, which expire through November 2030. Future rent payments associated with outstanding operating leases total $27.0 million, with $6.7 million payable within twelve months.

We believe that our cash and cash equivalents and future cash flow from operations will be sufficient to fund our operating expenses and capital expenditure requirements for at least the next twelve months and into the foreseeable future based on our current operating plan.

Critical Accounting Estimates

Our discussion and analysis of our historical financial condition and results of operations for the periods described is based on our audited consolidated financial statements, and our accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, each of which have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The preparation of these historical financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates, assumptions and judgments in certain circumstances that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities and contingencies as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. We evaluate our assumptions and estimates on an ongoing basis. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. However, we have made accounting estimates for our allowance for doubtful accounts, valuation of our contingent liabilities, other intangible assets and goodwill based on the facts and circumstances available as of the reporting date. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

We have provided a summary of our significant accounting policies in Note 1 in the notes to the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

42

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Our future income, cash flows and fair values relevant to financial instruments are subject to risks relating to interest rates.

As of March 31, 2023, we had $1,772.5 million of fixed rate debt principal outstanding pursuant to the notes with a fair value of $1,819.0 million. Since these notes bear interest at fixed rates, they do not result in any financial statement risk associated with changes in interest rates. However, the fair value of these notes fluctuates when interest rates change.

We also have a Revolving Credit Facility available to us with available borrowing capacity of $100.0 million. We are obligated to pay interest on loans under the Revolving Credit Facility as well as other customary fees, including an upfront fee and an unused commitment fee based on our debt rating. Borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility, if any, bear interest at floating rates. As a result, we are exposed to risks related to fluctuations in interest rates to the extent it impacts our borrowings. As of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, we had no amounts outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility. See “Liquidity and Capital Resources” in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in Part I, Item 2. of this Quarterly Report and Note 11 to the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for more information.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Limitations on Effectiveness of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. In addition, the design of disclosure controls and procedures must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and that management is required to apply judgment in evaluating the benefits of possible controls and procedures relative to their costs.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management, with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, evaluated, as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act). Based on that evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that, as of March 31, 2023, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the quarter ended March 31, 2023 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

43

PART II: OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

We are, from time to time, party to various claims and legal proceedings arising out of our ordinary course of business, but we do not believe that any of these existing claims or proceedings will have a material effect on our business, consolidated financial condition or results of operations.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

Investing in our Class A common stock involves a high degree of risk. You should carefully consider the risks described under the heading “Risk Factors” in Part I, Item 1A. of our 2022 Form 10-K, the other information in this Quarterly Report, including our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the related notes, as well as our other public filings with the SEC, before deciding to invest in our Class A common stock. There have been no material changes to the Company’s risk factors previously disclosed in our 2022 Form 10-K. The occurrence of any of the events described therein could harm our business, financial condition, results of operations, liquidity or prospects. In such an event, the market price of our Class A common stock could decline, and you may lose all or part of your investment. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial may also impair our business.

ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS

None.

ITEM 3. DEFAULTS UPON SENIOR SECURITIES

None.

ITEM 4. MINE SAFETY DISCLOSURES

Not applicable.

ITEM 5. OTHER INFORMATION

None.

Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]

Organization, Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies

Organization, Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies

Organization

Shift4 Payments, Inc. (“Shift4 Payments” or “the Company”) was incorporated in Delaware on November 5, 2019 in order to carry on the business of Shift4 Payments, LLC and its consolidated subsidiaries. The Company is a leading independent provider of software and payment processing solutions in the United States (“U.S.”) based on total volume of payments processed. The Company has achieved its leadership position through decades of solving business and operational challenges facing its customers’ overall commerce needs. The Company’s merchants range in size from small owner-operated local businesses to multinational enterprises conducting commerce throughout the world. The Company distributes its services through a scaled network of seasoned internal sales and support teams, as well as through its network of software partners. For its software partners, the Company offers a single integration to a global end-to-end payment offering, a proprietary gateway and a robust suite of technology solutions (including cloud enablement, business intelligence, analytics, and mobile) to enhance the value of their software and simplify payment acceptance. For its merchants, the Company provides a seamless, unified consumer experience and fulfills business needs that would otherwise require multiple software, hardware and payment vendors. The Shift4 Model is built to serve a range of merchants from small owner-operated local businesses to multinational enterprises conducting commerce throughout the world, including food and beverage, hospitality, stadiums and arenas, gaming, specialty retail, non-profits, eCommerce, and exciting technology companies. This includes the Company’s point of sale (“POS”) software offerings, as well as over 500 software integrations across virtually every industry vertical.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying interim condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company are unaudited. These interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the U.S. (“U.S. GAAP”) and the applicable rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for interim financial information. As such, these financial statements do not include all information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. The December 31, 2022 Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet was derived from audited financial statements as of that date, but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements.

In the opinion of management, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments consisting only of normal recurring adjustments necessary to state fairly the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented in conformity with U.S. GAAP applicable to interim periods. The results of operations for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year or future periods. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and the related notes thereto as of and for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022, as disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022 (the “2022 Form 10-K”).

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Shift4 Payments, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. Shift4 Payments, Inc. consolidates the financial results of Shift4 Payments, LLC, which is considered a variable interest entity. Shift4 Payments, Inc. is the primary beneficiary and sole managing member of Shift4 Payments, LLC and has decision making authority that significantly affects the economic performance of the entity. As a result, the Company consolidates Shift4 Payments, LLC and reports a noncontrolling interest representing the economic interest in Shift4 Payments, LLC held by Rook Holdings Inc. (“Rook”). All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

The assets and liabilities of Shift4 Payments, LLC represent substantially all of the consolidated assets and liabilities of Shift4 Payments, Inc. with the exception of certain cash balances, contingent consideration for earnout liabilities for The Giving Block, Inc. (“The Giving Block”), amounts payable under the Tax Receivable Agreement (“TRA”), and the aggregate principal amount of $690.0 million of 2025 Convertible Notes and $632.5 million of 2027 Convertible Notes (together, the “Convertible Notes”) that are held by Shift4 Payments, Inc. directly. As of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, $12.3 million and $9.8 million of cash, respectively, was directly held by Shift4 Payments, Inc. As of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the earnout liability for The Giving Block was $2.9 million and $10.9 million, respectively. The $2.9 million liability as of March 31, 2023 represents the cash portion of the earnout, which is expected to be paid in the second quarter of 2023. As of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the TRA liability was $2.2 million and $1.7 million, respectively. In connection with the issuance of the Convertible Notes, Shift4 Payments, Inc. entered into Intercompany Convertible Notes with Shift4 Payments, LLC, whereby Shift4 Payments, Inc. provided the net proceeds from the issuance of the Convertible Notes to Shift4 Payments, LLC in the amount of $1,322.5 million. Shift4 Payments, Inc., which was incorporated on November 5, 2019, has not had any material operations on a standalone basis since its inception, and all of the operations of the Company are carried out by Shift4 Payments, LLC and its subsidiaries. Shift4 Payments, Inc. recognized fair value adjustments to the contingent liability for The Giving Block of $(0.5) million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 due to the final measurement of the earnout payment.

Change in Presentation of Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets

Certain prior year balances have been adjusted to present “Restricted cash” on its own line item rather than within “Cash and cash equivalents” on the Company’s unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets to conform to the current period presentation.

Change in Presentation of Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations

Certain prior year balances have been adjusted to present “Transaction-related expenses” within “Professional fees” rather than its own line item on the Company’s unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Liquidity and Management’s Plan

As of March 31, 2023, the Company had $1,772.5 million total principal amount of debt outstanding and was in compliance with the financial covenants under its debt agreements. The Company expects to be in compliance with such financial covenants for at least 12 months following the issuance of these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. See Note 11 for further information on the Company’s debt obligations.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Significant estimates inherent in the preparation of the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include estimates of fair value of acquired assets and liabilities through business combinations, fair value of contingent liabilities related to earnout payments, deferred income tax valuation allowances, amounts associated with the Company’s tax receivable agreement with Rook and certain affiliates of Searchlight Capital Partners (together, the “Continuing Equity Owners”), fair value of debt instruments, allowance for doubtful accounts, income taxes, investments in securities and noncontrolling interests. Estimates are based on past experience and other considerations reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

Significant Accounting Policies

The Company’s significant accounting policies are discussed in Note 2 to Shift4 Payments, Inc.’s consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2022 in the 2022 Form 10-K. There have been no significant changes to these policies which have had a material impact on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes during the three months ended March 31, 2023, except for the below.

Cash and Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash

Highly liquid investments with maturities of three months or less at the date of purchase are considered to be cash equivalents and are stated at cost, which approximates fair value. The Company’s cash equivalents consist of highly liquid investments in money market funds, which amounted to $672.2 million and $652.8 million as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.

The Company classifies as restricted certain cash that is not available for use in its operations. Prior to December 2022, the Company had funds deposited in a sponsor bank merchant settlement account (“Settlement Funds”) to facilitate gross card transaction deposits for those customers the Company bills on a monthly, versus a daily basis. This amount fluctuates based upon end-to-end payment volumes and timing of billing cycles. The funds deposited at the sponsor bank were included within “Accounts receivable, net” prior to December 2022. In December 2022 and March 2023, pursuant to amendments to its agreement, the Company received in cash its Settlement Funds of $74.0 million, which was restricted as to withdrawal by the sponsor bank. In January 2023 and April 2023, the Company, as required by the amendments, deposited $74.0 million to its sponsor bank merchant settlement account. See Note 24 for more information on the April 2023 amendment to the sponsor bank agreement. As of both March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, Restricted cash was $74.0 million, representing the Company’s Settlement Funds.

The Company maintains its cash with what are widely considered to be high credit quality financial institutions. The total cash balances insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation are up to $250 thousand per bank.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

In March 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform, which provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying U.S. GAAP to contract modifications and hedging relationships, subject to certain criteria, that reference the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”), or another reference rate that is expected to be discontinued. ASU 2020-04 was subsequently amended by ASU 2022-06, Reference Rate Reform, which extends the date through which entities can elect these optional expedients and exceptions. Companies may elect to apply these amendments as of March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2024. The Company is currently evaluating whether it will elect the optional expedients, as well as evaluating the impact of ASU 2020-04 on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

In June 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-03, Fair Value Measurement of Equity Securities Subject to Contractual Sale Restrictions, to clarify that a contractual restriction on the sale of an equity security is not considered part of the unit of account of the equity security and, therefore, is not considered in measuring the fair value of the equity security. ASU 2022-03 also clarifies that an entity cannot recognize and measure a contractual sale restriction as a separate unit of account. The amendments in ASU 2022-03 may be early adopted and are effective on a prospective basis for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company currently considers sale restrictions in measuring the fair value of shares of its Class A common stock equity securities issued in conjunction with acquisitions. The Company is currently evaluating whether it will early adopt the amendments in ASU 2022-03 and is evaluating the impact of the amendments on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

Business Combination and Asset Acquisition [Abstract]

Acquisitions

AcquisitionsEach of the following acquisitions was accounted for as a business combination using the acquisition method of accounting. The respective purchase prices were allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on the estimated fair values at the date of acquisition. The excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net assets acquired was allocated to goodwill and represents the future economic benefits arising from other assets acquired, which cannot be individually identified or separately recognized.

Online Payments Group

On September 29, 2022, the Company completed the acquisition of Online Payments Group AG (“Online Payments Group”) by acquiring 100% of its common stock for $125.9 million of estimated total purchase consideration, net of cash acquired. Online Payments Group is a European payment service provider with a world-class developer portal and checkout experience that management believes will accelerate the Company’s global eCommerce growth. Total purchase consideration was as follows:

Cash	$	74.1
Shares of Class A common stock (a)	38.6
Contingent consideration (b)	22.0
Shareholder loans transfer	2.5
Total purchase consideration	137.2
Less: cash acquired	(11.3)
Total purchase consideration, net of cash acquired	$	125.9
(a) Total purchase consideration includes 971,371 shares of common stock.
(b) The Company agreed to an earnout due to the former shareholders of Online Payments Group, not to exceed $60.0 million. $30.0 million of the earnout is payable in September 2023 if key customers of Online Payments Group contribute a specified amount of revenue from September 29, 2022 to September 28, 2023 and the remaining $30.0 million of the earnout is payable in September 2024 if key customers contribute a specified amount of revenue from September 29, 2022 to September 28, 2024. Each portion of the earnout will be paid 50% in shares of the Company’s Class A common stock and 50% in cash. The fair value of the earnout was included in the initial purchase consideration and will be revalued and recorded quarterly until the end of the earnout period as a fair value adjustment within “Revaluation of contingent liabilities” in the Company’s unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. As of March 31, 2023, the fair value of the earnout was $40.2 million, of which $28.0 million is recognized in “Accrued expenses and other current liabilities” and $12.2 million is recognized in “Other noncurrent liabilities” on the Company’s unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

The following table summarizes the fair value assigned to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the acquisition date. These amounts reflect various preliminary fair value estimates and assumptions, and are subject to change within the measurement period as valuations are finalized. The primary areas of preliminary purchase price allocation subject to change relate to the valuation of contingent consideration, accounts receivable, accrued expenses and other current liabilities assumed, and residual goodwill.

Accounts receivable	$	2.2
Shareholder loans receivable (a)	2.5
Goodwill (b)	49.9
Other intangible assets	84.0
Indemnification asset (c)	7.5
Accounts payable	(0.4)
Accrued expenses and other current liabilities	(1.4)
Uncertain tax position (d)	(6.7)
Deferred tax liability	(9.9)
Other noncurrent liabilities	(1.8)
Net assets acquired	$	125.9
(a) Amount is eliminated in consolidation and therefore has no impact to the Company’s unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
(b) Goodwill is not deductible for tax purposes.
(c) Included within “Other noncurrent assets” in the Company’s unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
(d) Included within “Other noncurrent liabilities” in the Company’s unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Upon acquisition, the Company assessed the probability Online Payments Group would be required to pay certain tax liabilities and recorded to “Other noncurrent liabilities” on the Company’s unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets $6.7 million for income taxes related to unrecognized tax benefits determined in accordance with the provisions of ASC 740, “Accounting for income taxes” and $1.8 million for non-income taxes determined in accordance with the provisions of ASC 450, “Contingencies.” Online Payments Group has agreed to indemnify the Company for tax liabilities related to periods prior to the acquisition and an indemnification asset was established for $7.5 million in the purchase price allocation, which is recorded to “Other noncurrent assets” on the Company’s unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

The contingent liability arising from the expected earnout payment included in purchase consideration was measured on the acquisition date using a Monte Carlo simulation in a risk-neutral framework, calibrated to Management’s revenue forecasts. The transaction was not taxable for income tax purposes. Other intangible assets consists of definite-lived intangible assets, which includes customer relationships and developed technology. The fair values of these intangible assets were estimated using inputs classified as Level 3 under the income approach using the relief-from-royalty method (developed technology) or the multi-period excess earnings method (customer relationships). Management’s estimates of fair value are based upon assumptions related to projected revenues, earnings before interest expense and income tax (“EBIT”) margins, customer attrition rates, and discount rates. The transaction was not taxable for income tax purposes. The weighted average life of developed technology and customer relationships is 8 years and 13 years, respectively. The goodwill arising from the acquisition largely consisted of revenue synergies associated with a larger total addressable market and the ability to cross-sell existing customers, new customers and technology capabilities.

The acquisition of Online Payments Group did not have a material impact on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. Accordingly, revenue and expenses related to the acquisition and pro forma financial information have not been presented.

The Company acquired 100% of each entity’s ownership interests. These acquisitions enable the boarding of the restaurant technology partners’ customers on the Company’s end-to-end acquiring solution and empower the Company’s distribution partners to sign the restaurant technology partners’ customer accounts and leverage the combined expertise to handle all aspects of installation, service, and support.

The earnouts are expected to be paid in a combination of cash and shares of the Company’s Class A common stock. The fair value of the earnouts was included in the initial purchase consideration and will be revalued and recorded quarterly until the end of the earnout period as a fair value adjustment within “Revaluation of contingent liabilities” in the Company’s unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. As of March 31, 2023, the fair value of the earnouts was $1.8 million, of which $0.5 million is recognized in “Accrued expenses and other current liabilities” and $1.3 million is recognized in “Other noncurrent liabilities” on the Company’s unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

The earnout is expected to be paid in cash. The fair value of the earnout was included in the initial purchase consideration and will be revalued and recorded quarterly until the end of the earnout period as a fair value adjustment within “Revaluation of contingent liabilities” in the Company’s unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. As of March 31, 2023, the fair value of the earnout was $0.3 million, which is recognized in “Other noncurrent liabilities” on the Company’s unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

The following table summarizes the fair value assigned to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the acquisition dates. These amounts reflect various preliminary fair value estimates and assumptions, and are subject to change within the measurement period as valuations are finalized.

Fair Value Measurement

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]

Fair Value Measurement

Fair Value Measurement

U.S. GAAP defines a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted process in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements).

The Company determines the fair values of its assets and liabilities that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in accordance with the hierarchy described below. The following three levels of inputs may be used to measure fair value:

•Level 1—Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

•Level 2—Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities; and

•Level 3—Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. Level 3 assets and liabilities include items where the determination of fair value requires significant management judgment or estimation.

The Company makes recurring fair value measurements of contingent liabilities arising from certain acquisitions and residual commission buyouts using Level 3 unobservable inputs. Contingent liabilities for residual commission buyouts are expected earnout payments related to the number of existing point-of-sale merchants that convert to full acquiring merchants. Contingent liabilities included in the purchase price of an acquisition are based on achievement of specified performance metrics as defined in the purchase agreement.

In conjunction with the acquisition of Online Payments Group on September 29, 2022, the Company entered into a contingent consideration agreement that requires the Company to pay up to $60.0 million if key customers of Online Payments Group contribute a certain amount of revenue for the twelve months ending September 28, 2023 and the twenty-four months ending September 28, 2024. The fair value of the contingent consideration was estimated using a Monte-Carlo simulation model, which included significant unobservable Level 3 inputs, such as projected revenues over the earnout period along with estimates for revenue volatility of 53.6% and 54.4% as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively, and the discount rate of 7.6% and 7.2% as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. See Note 2 for more information on the terms of the earnout agreement. The Company recognized fair value adjustments to the contingent liability for Online Payments Group of $7.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023, primarily due to an increase in projected revenues over the earnout period. The fair value adjustments are recognized in “Revaluation of contingent liabilities” on the Company’s unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. The estimated fair value of the contingent consideration was $40.2 million as of March 31, 2023, of which $28.0 million is recognized in “Accrued expenses and other current liabilities” and $12.2 million is recognized in “Other noncurrent liabilities” on the Company’s unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

In conjunction with the acquisition of The Giving Block on February 28, 2022, the Company entered into a contingent consideration agreement that required the Company to pay up to $246.0 million if certain revenue thresholds of the acquired business were achieved for the twelve months ending February 28, 2023. Prior to the final measurement date, the fair value of the contingent consideration was estimated using a Monte-Carlo simulation model, which included significant unobservable Level 3 inputs, such as projected revenues over the earnout period, estimates for revenue volatility, and the discount rate. See Note 2 for more information on the terms of the earnout agreement. The earnout, valued at $10.2 million as of March 31, 2023, reflects the final measurement of the earnout payment. The Company recognized a fair value adjustment to the contingent liability for The Giving Block of $(0.5) million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 due to the final measurement of the earnout payment. The fair value adjustment is recognized in “Revaluation of contingent liabilities” on the Company’s unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

In conjunction with the acquisitions of certain restaurant technology partners in 2022 and 2023, the Company entered into contingent consideration agreements that require the Company to pay up to an aggregate of $6.5 million. The fair values of the contingent consideration were estimated using Monte-Carlo simulation models, which included significant unobservable Level 3 inputs, such as projected performance over the earnout periods and discount rates ranging from 6.5% to 7.3% as of March 31, 2023 and from 5.1% to 6.7% as of December 31, 2022. See Note 2 for more information on the terms of the earnout agreements. The Company recognized fair value adjustments to the contingent liability for the restaurant technology partners of $0.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023, primarily due to an increase in expected performance over the earnout period. The estimated fair value of the contingent consideration is $2.1 million as of March 31, 2023, of which $0.5 million is recognized in “Accrued expenses and other current liabilities” and $1.6 million is recognized in “Other noncurrent liabilities” on the Company’s unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

In conjunction with residual commission buyouts executed in conjunction with asset acquisitions, the Company entered into contingent consideration agreements that require the Company to pay up to an aggregate of $24.5 million. The fair values of the contingent consideration were estimated based on projected attrition rates and other financial metrics within the respective merchant portfolios over the earnout periods. The estimated fair value of the contingent consideration related to residual commission buyouts of $9.8 million as of March 31, 2023 is recognized in “Accrued expenses and other current liabilities” on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets.

The table below provides a reconciliation of the beginning and ending balances for the Level 3 contingent liabilities:

	Three Months Ended March 31, 2023
	Contingent Liabilities for Acquisitions		Contingent Liabilities for Residual Commission Buyouts		Total Contingent Liabilities
Balance at beginning of period	$	45.2	$	10.0	$	55.2
Contingent consideration for acquisitions	0.3		—		0.3
Contingent liabilities that achieved earnout	(10.2)		(0.2)		(10.4)
Fair value adjustments	7.0		—		7.0
Balance at end of period	$	42.3	$	9.8	$	52.1

Fair value adjustments for contingent liabilities are recorded within “Revaluation of contingent liabilities” in the Company’s unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. There were no transfers into or out of Level 3 during the three months ended March 31, 2023.

The estimated fair value of the Company’s outstanding debt using quoted prices from over-the-counter markets, considered Level 2 inputs, was as follows:

	March 31, 2023				December 31, 2022
	Carrying Value (a)		Fair Value		Carrying Value (a)		Fair Value
2025 Convertible Notes	$	681.1	$	790.7	$	680.3	$	686.9
2027 Convertible Notes	621.6		601.1		621.0		533.7
2026 Senior Notes	442.0		427.2		441.4		423.0
Total	$	1,744.7	$	1,819.0	$	1,742.7	$	1,643.6
(a) Carrying value excludes unamortized debt issuance costs related to the Revolving Credit Facility of $0.7 million and $0.8 million as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.

The estimated fair value of the Company’s investments in securities was $56.0 million and $47.1 million as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. These non-marketable equity investments have no readily determinable fair values and are measured using the measurement alternative, which is defined as cost, less impairment, adjusted for observable price changes from orderly transactions for identical or similar investments of the same issuer. Adjustments for these investments, if any, are recorded in “Unrealized gain on investments in securities” on the Company’s unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. The Company recognized fair value adjustments to its investments in securities of $8.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023, the entire amount of which related to securities still held as of March 31, 2023, based on secondary offerings of identical securities by the respective companies in 2023. The Company has recognized cumulative fair value adjustments to its investments in securities of $24.0 million.

The estimated fair value of the Company’s crypto settlement assets and crypto settlement liabilities was $3.2 million and $1.8 million as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. There are no active markets for the Company’s crypto settlement liabilities and the corresponding crypto settlement assets. Accordingly, the Company has valued the assets and liabilities using quoted prices from active cryptocurrency exchanges for the underlying crypto assets, considered Level 2 inputs.

Other financial instruments not measured at fair value on the Company’s unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022 include cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, prepaid expenses and other current assets, other noncurrent assets, accounts payable, accrued expenses and other current liabilities, and other noncurrent liabilities, as their estimated fair values reasonably approximate their carrying value as reported on the Company’s unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]

Income Taxes

Income Taxes

The Company holds an economic interest in Shift4 Payments, LLC and consolidates its financial position and results. The remaining ownership of Shift4 Payments, LLC not held by the Company is considered a noncontrolling interest. Shift4 Payments, LLC is treated as a partnership for income tax reporting and its members, including the Company, are liable for federal, state, and local income taxes based on their share of the LLC’s taxable income. In addition, Shift4 Payments, LLC wholly owns various U.S. and foreign subsidiaries which are taxed as corporations for tax reporting. Taxable income or loss from these subsidiaries is not passed through to Shift4 Payments, LLC. Instead, such taxable income or loss is taxed at the corporate level subject to the prevailing corporate tax rates.

The Company has assessed the realizability of the net deferred tax assets and in that analysis has considered the relevant positive and negative evidence available to determine whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will be realized. The Company has recorded a full valuation allowance against the deferred tax assets at Shift4 Payments, Inc. as of March 31, 2023, which will be maintained until there is sufficient evidence to support the reversal of all or some portion of these allowances.

The Company’s effective tax rate was (21.4)% and (32.0)% for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2023 was different than the U.S. federal statutory income tax rate of 21% primarily due to the income allocated to the noncontrolling interest, the full valuation allowances on Shift4 Payments, Inc. and certain corporate subsidiaries in the U.S., and a $4.8 million tax benefit related to the valuation allowance release due to a legal entity restructuring. The effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2022 was different than the U.S. federal statutory income tax rate of 21% primarily due to the loss allocated to the noncontrolling interest, the full valuation allowance on Shift4 Payments, Inc. and certain corporate subsidiaries in the U.S., and a $6.4 million income tax benefit related to the valuation allowance release due to acquired deferred tax liabilities from The Giving Block.

Uncertain Tax Positions

The effects of uncertain tax positions are recognized in the condensed consolidated financial statements if these positions meet a “more-likely-than-not” threshold. For those uncertain tax positions that are recognized in the condensed consolidated financial statements, liabilities are established to reflect the portion of those positions it cannot conclude “more-likely-than-not” to be realized upon ultimate settlement. The Company’s policy is to recognize interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits within “Income tax (provision) benefit” in the Company’s unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. Accrued interest and penalties, if any, are included within “Deferred tax liability” in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. As of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, $8.1 million and $8.0 million, respectively, of uncertain tax positions were recognized within “Other noncurrent liabilities” in the Company’s unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, which were recognized in conjunction with acquisitions.

Tax Receivable Agreement

The Company expects to obtain an increase in its share of the tax basis in the net assets of Shift4 Payments, LLC as LLC Interests are redeemed from or exchanged by the Continuing Equity Owners, at the option of the Company, determined solely by the Company’s independent directors. The Company intends to treat any redemptions and exchanges of LLC Interests as direct purchases of LLC Interests for U.S. federal income tax purposes. These increases in tax basis may reduce the amounts that it would otherwise pay in the future to various tax authorities. In connection with the Company’s initial public offering in June 2020 and certain organizational transactions that the Company effected in connection with it, the Company entered into the TRA with the Continuing Equity Owners.

The TRA provides for the payment by Shift4 Payments, Inc. of 85% of the amount of any tax benefits the Company actually realizes, or in some cases is deemed to realize, as a result of (i) increases in the Company’s share of the tax basis in the net assets of Shift4 Payments, LLC resulting from any redemptions or exchanges of LLC Interests, (ii) tax basis increases attributable to payments made under the TRA, and (iii) deductions attributable to imputed interest pursuant to the TRA. The Company expects to benefit from the remaining 15% of any of cash savings that it realizes.

As of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company recognized a TRA liability of $2.2 million and $1.7 million, respectively, after concluding it was probable that, based on estimates of future taxable income, the Company will realize tax benefits associated with the TRA. The liability is recognized in “Other noncurrent liabilities” on the Company’s unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. As of March 31, 2023, the Company has not recognized the remaining $291.6 million liability under the TRA after concluding it was not probable that the Company will be able to realize the remaining tax benefits based on estimates of future taxable income. No payments were made to the Continuing Equity Owners pursuant to the TRA during the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022. The estimation of liability under the tax receivable agreement is by its nature imprecise and subject to significant assumptions regarding the amount, character, and timing of the taxable income of Shift4 Payments, Inc. in the future. If the valuation allowance recorded against the deferred tax assets applicable to the tax attributes referenced above is released in a future period, the remaining TRA liability may be considered probable at that time and recorded within earnings.

If Rook were to exchange any of its LLC Interests subsequent to March 31, 2023, such exchanges could generate additional deferred tax assets and TRA liability. As of December 31, 2022, the estimated impact of the exchange of all of Rook’s LLC Interests was an additional deferred tax asset of approximately $457.3 million and a TRA liability of approximately $388.7 million. The actual amounts as of March 31, 2023 could differ materially from those disclosed as of December 31, 2022 as they are impacted by the timing of the exchanges, the valuation of corporate subsidiaries, the price of the Company’s shares of Class A common stock at the time of the exchange, and the tax rates then in effect.

The Company has a service agreement with Jared Isaacman, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and founder (“Founder”), including access to aircrafts and a property. Total expense for this service, which is included in “General and administrative expenses” in the Company’s unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations, was $0.2 million for the three months ended both March 31, 2023 and 2022. There were no amounts outstanding at March 31, 2023 or December 31, 2022. In addition, during the three months ended March 31, 2023, the Company made $1.4 million of distributions related to income taxes paid on behalf of Rook, which are included in “Distributions to noncontrolling interests” in the Company’s unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

In November 2021, the Company implemented a one-time discretionary equity award program for non-management employees. The Founder agreed to fund 50% of this program through a contribution of shares of his Class C common stock. As of March 31, 2023, the expected contribution from the Founder totaled 767,748 shares of his Class C common stock. The one-time discretionary equity award program will vest in three equal installments annually beginning in the third year. Vesting of the awards is subject to the continued employment of non-management employees.

Rook has entered into margin loan agreements, pursuant to which, in addition to other collateral, it has pledged LLC Interests and shares of the Company’s Class A and Class B common stock (collectively, “Rook Units”) to secure a margin loan. If Rook were to default on its obligations under the margin loan and fail to cure such default, the lender would have the right to exchange and sell up to 15,000,000 Rook units to satisfy Rook’s obligation.

In March 2021, the Founder, through a wholly-owned special purpose vehicle (“SPV”), entered into a variable prepaid forward contract (“VPF Contract”) with an unaffiliated dealer (“Dealer”), covering approximately 2.0 million shares of the Company’s Class A common stock. The VPF Contract settles on specified dates in February, March and April 2023, at which time the actual number of shares of the Company’s Class A common stock to be delivered by the SPV will be determined based on the price of the Company’s Class A common stock on such dates relative to the forward floor price of $73.19 per share and the forward cap price of $137.24 per share, with the aggregate number not to exceed approximately 2.0 million shares, which is the number of shares of the Company’s Class B common stock and LLC units pledged by Rook to secure its obligations under the contract. Subject to certain conditions, the SPV can also elect to settle the VPF Contract in cash and thereby retain full ownership of the pledged shares and units. During the three months ended March 31, 2023, 1,666,665 shares of the Company’s Class B common stock owned by the SPV were effectively converted to Class A common stock and delivered to the SPV through the VPF Contract.

In September 2021, the Founder, through the SPV, entered into two VPF Contracts with a Dealer, one covering approximately 2.18 million shares of the Company’s Class A common stock and the other covering approximately 2.26 million shares of the Company’s Class A common stock. The VPF Contracts are both scheduled to settle on specified dates in June, July, August and September 2024, at which time the actual number of shares of the Company’s Class A common stock to be delivered by the SPV will be determined based on the price of the Company’s Class A common stock on such dates relative to the forward floor price of approximately $66.424 per share and the forward cap price of approximately $112.09 per share for the contract covering approximately 2.18 million shares of the Company’s Class A common stock, and to the forward floor price of $66.424 per share and the forward cap price of approximately $120.39 per share for the contract covering approximately 2.26 million shares of the Company’s Class A common stock, with the aggregate number not to exceed approximately 4.44 million shares, which is the aggregate number of shares of Company’s Class B common stock and their associated common units of Shift4 Payments, LLC pledged by the SPV to secure its obligations under the contracts. Subject to certain conditions, the SPV can also elect to settle the VPF Contracts in cash and thereby retain full ownership of the pledged shares and units.

If Rook were to default on its obligations under the VPF Contracts and fail to cure such default, the Dealer would have the right to exchange the pledged Class B stock and LLC interests for an equal number of the Company’s Class A common stock, and sell such Class A common stock to satisfy Rook’s obligation.

Commitments and Contingencies

From time to time, the Company may become involved in various lawsuits and legal proceedings, which arise, in the ordinary course of business. However, litigation is subject to inherent uncertainties, and an adverse result in these, or other matters, may arise from time to time that may harm the Company’s business. In August 2021, TSYS, a Global Payments company and an important vendor to the Company, experienced a significant platform outage resulting in a payment processing service disruption that lasted for several hours. TSYS is utilized by many major credit card issuers and payment processors, which meant the impact of the outage was felt by many card-accepting merchants and cardholders across the nation. The Company took steps to lessen the financial impact to its merchants and partners due to the TSYS outage and is seeking compensation through a variety of channels, including engaging with the responsible party.

The Company is currently not aware of any legal proceedings or claims that the Company believes will have a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition or operating results.

Repurchases under the Programs were able to be made in the open market, in privately negotiated transactions or otherwise, with the amount and timing of repurchases depending on market conditions and corporate needs. Open market repurchases were structured to occur within the pricing and volume requirements of Rule 10b-18. The third of these Programs expired on December 31, 2022.

During the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company repurchased 301,510 shares of Class A common stock under the Programs for $17.2 million, including commissions paid, at an average price paid of $56.78 per share.

Repurchased shares of common stock that have not been retired are recorded as “Treasury stock” on the Company’s unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Upon retirement, the Company allocates the value of treasury stock between Additional paid-in capital and Retained earnings. There were no shares of treasury stock outstanding as of March 31, 2023 or December 31, 2022.

Equity-based Compensation

Equity-based Compensation

2020 Incentive Award Plan

The Company’s 2020 Incentive Award Plan, as amended and restated in June 2022 (the “Restated Equity Plan”), provides for the grant of stock options, restricted stock dividend equivalents, stock payments, restricted stock units (“RSUs”), performance restricted stock units (“PRSUs”), stock appreciation rights, and other stock or cash awards. The number of shares available for issuance is subject to an annual increase on the first day of each year beginning in 2023 and ending in and including 2032, equal to the lesser of (1) 2% of the shares outstanding (on an as-converted basis, taking into account any and all securities convertible into, or exercisable, exchangeable or redeemable for, shares of Class A common stock (including LLC Interests of Shift4 Payments, LLC)) on the last day of the immediately preceding fiscal year and (2) such smaller number of shares as determined by the Board.

As of March 31, 2023, a maximum of 721,911 shares of the Company’s Class A common stock were available for issuance under the Restated Equity Plan.

RSUs and PRSUs

RSUs represent the right to receive shares of the Company’s Class A common stock at a specified date in the future.

The RSU activity for the three months ended March 31, 2023 was as follows:

	Three Months Ended March 31, 2023
	Number of RSUs	Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value
Unvested balance at December 31, 2022	2,465,355	$	47.57
Granted	1,245,155	64.30
Vested	(194,613)	60.59
Forfeited or cancelled	(129,176)	53.40
Unvested balance at March 31, 2023	3,386,721	$	52.75

The grant date fair value of RSUs and PRSUs subject to continued service or those that vest immediately was determined based on the price of the Company’s Class A common stock on the grant date (or, in the case of the RSUs granted in connection with the IPO, the IPO price of $23.00 per share). The grant date fair value of the RSUs issued in connection with the IPO, that are not subject to continued service, was determined using the Finnerty discount for lack of marketability pricing model, taking into account the vesting provisions on the shares prior to June 2021.

The Company recognized equity-based compensation expense of $20.9 million and $16.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. As of March 31, 2023, the Company had $139.7 million of total unrecognized equity-based compensation expense related to outstanding RSUs and PRSUs, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 3.27 years.

Earnings Per Share [Abstract]

Basic and Diluted Net Income (Loss) per Share

Basic and Diluted Net Income (Loss) per Share

Basic net income (loss) per share has been computed by dividing net income (loss) attributable to common shareholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the same period. Shares issued during the period and shares reacquired during the period are weighted for the portion of the period in which the shares were outstanding. Diluted net income (loss) per share has been computed in a manner consistent with that of basic net income (loss) per share while giving effect to all shares of potentially dilutive common stock that were outstanding during the period. The following table presents the calculation of basic and diluted net income (loss) per share under the two-class method:

	Three Months Ended March 31,

Net income (loss)	$	20.4	$	(13.2)

For the three months ended March 31, 2023, the Company has excluded from the calculation of diluted net income per share the effect of the following:

•the conversion of the 2025 Convertible Notes and 2027 Convertible Notes, as the last reported sales price of the Company’s Class A common stock was not greater than or equal to 130% of the conversion price for 20 trading days during a period of 30 consecutive trading days prior to March 31, 2023, per the terms of the agreement, and

•shares of the Company’s Class A common stock to be issued in connection with the earnouts due to the former shareholders of Online Payments Group and certain restaurant technology partners. See Note 2 for more information about shares to be issued in connection with earnouts.

For the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company has excluded from the calculation of diluted net loss per share the effect of the following:

•shares of the Company’s Class A common stock to be issued in connection with the earnout due to the former shareholders of The Giving Block. See Note 2 for more information about shares to be issued in connection with earnouts.

Acquisition

Subsequent to March 31, 2023, the Company acquired Focus POS Systems for $45.0 million of total purchase consideration, comprised of $35.0 million of cash and $10.0 million of shares of the Company’s Class A common stock. Due to the timing of this acquisition, the initial accounting for the acquisition, including the valuation of assets and liabilities acquired, is incomplete. As such, the Company is unable to disclose certain information, including the preliminary fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed, at this time.

Material Agreements

Prior to an amendment to the Company’s agreement with its sponsor bank, as discussed in Note 1, Settlement Funds to facilitate gross card transaction deposits for those customers the Company bills on a monthly, versus a daily basis funds were deposited at the sponsor bank and included within “Accounts receivable, net” on the Company’s unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets prior to December 2022.

In April 2023, the Company finalized an amendment which established a new long-term agreement with its sponsor bank, which augments services and expands tiered pricing that lowers the Company’s cost as transaction volume increases. The agreement also establishes by what means the Company’s cash will be restricted based on settlement activity flows. Under this agreement, the Company is required to maintain an account in the Company’s name at the sponsor bank, with a minimum balance equal to the greater of $25.0 million or 110% of the highest merchant settlement account overdraft balance over a rolling 90-day period. This amount will fluctuate based on end-to-end payment volumes and the timing of billing cycles and will be recognized as “Restricted cash” on the Company’s unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Stock Repurchase Program

On May 3, 2023, the Board authorized a new stock repurchase program (the “May 2023 Program”), pursuant to which the Company is authorized to repurchase up to $250.0 million of shares of its Class A common stock through December 31, 2023.

Repurchases under the May 2023 Program may be made in the open market, in privately negotiated transactions or otherwise, with the amount and timing of repurchases depending on market conditions and corporate needs. Open market repurchases will be structured to occur within the pricing and volume requirements of Rule 10b-18. The Company may also, from time to time, enter into Rule 10b5-1 plans to facilitate repurchases of its shares pursuant to the May 2023 Program.

The May 2023 Program does not obligate the Company to acquire any particular amount of common stock. The May 2023 Program may be extended, modified, suspended or discontinued at any time at the Company’s discretion.

Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]

Basis of Presentation

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying interim condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company are unaudited. These interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the U.S. (“U.S. GAAP”) and the applicable rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for interim financial information. As such, these financial statements do not include all information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. The December 31, 2022 Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet was derived from audited financial statements as of that date, but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements.

In the opinion of management, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments consisting only of normal recurring adjustments necessary to state fairly the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented in conformity with U.S. GAAP applicable to interim periods. The results of operations for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year or future periods. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and the related notes thereto as of and for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022, as disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022 (the “2022 Form 10-K”).

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Shift4 Payments, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. Shift4 Payments, Inc. consolidates the financial results of Shift4 Payments, LLC, which is considered a variable interest entity. Shift4 Payments, Inc. is the primary beneficiary and sole managing member of Shift4 Payments, LLC and has decision making authority that significantly affects the economic performance of the entity. As a result, the Company consolidates Shift4 Payments, LLC and reports a noncontrolling interest representing the economic interest in Shift4 Payments, LLC held by Rook Holdings Inc. (“Rook”). All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

The assets and liabilities of Shift4 Payments, LLC represent substantially all of the consolidated assets and liabilities of Shift4 Payments, Inc. with the exception of certain cash balances, contingent consideration for earnout liabilities for The Giving Block, Inc. (“The Giving Block”), amounts payable under the Tax Receivable Agreement (“TRA”), and the aggregate principal amount of $690.0 million of 2025 Convertible Notes and $632.5 million of 2027 Convertible Notes (together, the “Convertible Notes”) that are held by Shift4 Payments, Inc. directly. As of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, $12.3 million and $9.8 million of cash, respectively, was directly held by Shift4 Payments, Inc. As of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the earnout liability for The Giving Block was $2.9 million and $10.9 million, respectively. The $2.9 million liability as of March 31, 2023 represents the cash portion of the earnout, which is expected to be paid in the second quarter of 2023. As of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the TRA liability was $2.2 million and $1.7 million, respectively. In connection with the issuance of the Convertible Notes, Shift4 Payments, Inc. entered into Intercompany Convertible Notes with Shift4 Payments, LLC, whereby Shift4 Payments, Inc. provided the net proceeds from the issuance of the Convertible Notes to Shift4 Payments, LLC in the amount of $1,322.5 million. Shift4 Payments, Inc., which was incorporated on November 5, 2019, has not had any material operations on a standalone basis since its inception, and all of the operations of the Company are carried out by Shift4 Payments, LLC and its subsidiaries. Shift4 Payments, Inc. recognized fair value adjustments to the contingent liability for The Giving Block of $(0.5) million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 due to the final measurement of the earnout payment.

See Note 11 for further information on the Company’s debt obligations.

Use of Estimates

Use of EstimatesThe preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Significant estimates inherent in the preparation of the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include estimates of fair value of acquired assets and liabilities through business combinations, fair value of contingent liabilities related to earnout payments, deferred income tax valuation allowances, amounts associated with the Company’s tax receivable agreement with Rook and certain affiliates of Searchlight Capital Partners (together, the “Continuing Equity Owners”), fair value of debt instruments, allowance for doubtful accounts, income taxes, investments in securities and noncontrolling interests. Estimates are based on past experience and other considerations reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

Cash and Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash

Cash and Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash

Highly liquid investments with maturities of three months or less at the date of purchase are considered to be cash equivalents and are stated at cost, which approximates fair value. The Company’s cash equivalents consist of highly liquid investments in money market funds, which amounted to $672.2 million and $652.8 million as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.

This amount fluctuates based upon end-to-end payment volumes and timing of billing cycles. The funds deposited at the sponsor bank were included within “Accounts receivable, net” prior to December 2022. In December 2022 and March 2023, pursuant to amendments to its agreement, the Company received in cash its Settlement Funds of $74.0 million, which was restricted as to withdrawal by the sponsor bank. In January 2023 and April 2023, the Company, as required by the amendments, deposited $74.0 million to its sponsor bank merchant settlement account.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

In March 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform, which provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying U.S. GAAP to contract modifications and hedging relationships, subject to certain criteria, that reference the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”), or another reference rate that is expected to be discontinued. ASU 2020-04 was subsequently amended by ASU 2022-06, Reference Rate Reform, which extends the date through which entities can elect these optional expedients and exceptions. Companies may elect to apply these amendments as of March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2024. The Company is currently evaluating whether it will elect the optional expedients, as well as evaluating the impact of ASU 2020-04 on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

In June 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-03, Fair Value Measurement of Equity Securities Subject to Contractual Sale Restrictions, to clarify that a contractual restriction on the sale of an equity security is not considered part of the unit of account of the equity security and, therefore, is not considered in measuring the fair value of the equity security. ASU 2022-03 also clarifies that an entity cannot recognize and measure a contractual sale restriction as a separate unit of account. The amendments in ASU 2022-03 may be early adopted and are effective on a prospective basis for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company currently considers sale restrictions in measuring the fair value of shares of its Class A common stock equity securities issued in conjunction with acquisitions. The Company is currently evaluating whether it will early adopt the amendments in ASU 2022-03 and is evaluating the impact of the amendments on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

(c) The Company agreed to an earnout due to the former shareholders of The Giving Block, calculated as a multiple of revenue earned by The Giving Block from March 1, 2022 to February 28, 2023, not to exceed $246.0 million. Approximately 75% of the earnout was comprised of a combination of RSUs and shares of the Company’s Class A common stock and approximately 25% of the earnout was comprised of cash. The cash portion of the earnout, valued at $2.9 million as of March 31, 2023, is included within “Accounts payable” on the Company’s unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The stock portion of the earnout, valued at $7.3 million as of March 31, 2023, is included within “Additional paid-in-capital” on the Company’s unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The fair value of the earnout was included in the initial purchase consideration and was revalued quarterly through the end of the earnout period as a fair value adjustment within “Revaluation of contingent liabilities” in the Company’s unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Earnings Per Share [Abstract]

Schedule of Calculation of Basic and Diluted Net Loss Per Share

Basic net income (loss) per share has been computed by dividing net income (loss) attributable to common shareholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the same period. Shares issued during the period and shares reacquired during the period are weighted for the portion of the period in which the shares were outstanding. Diluted net income (loss) per share has been computed in a manner consistent with that of basic net income (loss) per share while giving effect to all shares of potentially dilutive common stock that were outstanding during the period. The following table presents the calculation of basic and diluted net income (loss) per share under the two-class method:

	Three Months Ended March 31,
