LONDON–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Paysafe Limited (“Paysafe” or the “Company”) (NYSE: PSFE) (PSFE.WS), a leading specialized payments platform, today announced its financial results for the first quarter of 2022.
First Quarter 2022 Financial Highlights
(Metrics compared to first quarter of 2021)
- Total Payment Volume of $31.2 billion*, increased 13%
- Revenue of $367.7 million, decreased 3%; Revenue approximately flat on a constant currency basis
- Net loss attributable to the Company of $1.2 billion, compared to net loss of $60.6 million, and inclusive of a non-cash impairment charge of $1.2 billion
- Adjusted EBITDA of $104.0 million, decreased 8%
Bruce Lowthers, CEO of Paysafe, commented: “I am thrilled to be joining the talented Paysafe team at such a pivotal time. Paysafe has a long track record of being a pioneer in payments and with a lot of potential to grow in verticals with strong tailwinds. I look forward to working with the team to seize the opportunities ahead, drive more innovation in the fintech ecosystem and ultimately generate greater shareholder value.”
Izzy Dawood, CFO of Paysafe, commented: “Paysafe is off to a good start this year, posting first quarter results ahead of our expectations. We are particularly pleased with the strong performance from our US Acquiring business, which delivered double-digit volume, revenue and adjusted EBITDA growth. We are winning across Digital Commerce and the turnaround of the digital wallet business continues to show progress. Additionally, Paysafe is succeeding in North America iGaming, recently launching in Ontario’s new private market. Despite macro headwinds, we remain confident in our full year outlook supported by continued momentum in US Acquiring and our pipeline across Digital Commerce.”
Recent Strategic and Operational Highlights
- Strong growth from US Acquiring – volume increased 21% year-over-year
- Won ‘Payments Provider’ 2022 eGaming Review North America award
- Launched with multiple iGaming operators in Ontario’s new private market, providing traditional and alternative payment solutions through Paysafe’s best-in-breed payment gateway
- Expanded longstanding payments partnership with Betsson Group into the US iGaming market (Colorado)
- Expanded collaboration with Playtech into the UK and Europe following success across multiple US states
- Strengthened Paysafe’s New York sports-betting presence with Resorts WorldBET partnership, building on Paysafe’s successful launch into the New York market with multiple brands in January
Impairment of Goodwill
Due to a sustained decline in Paysafe’s stock price and market capitalization, as well as current market and macroeconomic conditions, Paysafe recognized a $1.2 billion impairment of goodwill in the first quarter of 2022. The non-cash impairment charge will not have any impact on the Company’s compliance with its debt covenants, cash flows or liquidity. Additional information about the results of the goodwill impairment test and related disclosures will be available in the Company’s interim financial report on Form 6-K to be filed with the SEC.
* Volumes exclude embedded finance related volumes of $4.4 billion.

Total revenue for the first quarter of 2022 was $367.7 million, a decrease of 3%, compared to $377.4 million in the prior year period. Excluding a $11.6 million unfavorable impact from year-over-year changes in foreign exchange rates, revenue was approximately flat compared to the prior year period. Growth from US Acquiring, which increased 10%, was offset by declines in Digital Commerce, which decreased 11%, reflecting unfavorable foreign exchange as well as market headwinds related to gambling regulations in Europe, partially offset by the contribution from acquisitions completed in the last twelve months. Additionally, in the prior year period, Paysafe’s eCash solutions benefited from comparably strong volumes associated with COVID-19 lockdowns in Europe.
Net loss attributable to the Company for the first quarter was $1.2 billion, compared to net loss of $60.6 million in the prior year period, reflecting the aforementioned impairment charge. This was partially offset by a $66.9 million reduction in share-based compensation due to shares vested on completion of the Transaction in the prior year period. Additionally, interest expense of $26.0 million decreased by $36.4 million as a result of the Company’s debt refinancing completed in 2021.
Adjusted EBITDA for the first quarter was $104.0 million, a decrease of 8%, compared to $113.2 million in the prior year period. Adjusted EBITDA margin decreased to 28.3%, compared to 30.0% in the prior year period, primarily reflecting business mix.
First quarter net cash from operating activities was $503.8 million, compared to $48.7 million in the prior year period. Free cash flow was $59.2 million, compared to $108.5 million in the prior year period.

Reorganization and Recapitalization (the “Transaction”)
On March 30, 2021, Paysafe completed the previously announced transaction with FTAC, a special purpose acquisition company, which resulted in Paysafe Limited acquiring, and becoming the successor to, the Accounting Predecessor. Simultaneously, it completed the merger with FTAC with an exchange of the shares and warrants issued by Paysafe Limited for those of FTAC. The acquisition was accounted for as a capital reorganization followed by the merger with FTAC, which was treated as a recapitalization. Following the transaction, both the Accounting Predecessor and FTAC are indirect wholly owned subsidiaries of Paysafe Limited. Upon completion of the Transaction, the common stock and warrants began trading on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker symbols “PSFE” and “PSFE WS,” respectively, on March 31, 2021.

The Company’s financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2021 have been updated for certain non-cash adjustments to the amounts presented within the Company’s Form 6-K filed on May 11, 2021. These adjustments were not significant and predominately relate to share-based compensation.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To supplement the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, the company uses non-GAAP measures of certain components of financial performance. This includes Gross Profit (excluding depreciation and amortization), Gross Profit Margin (excluding depreciation and amortization), Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, Free cash flow and Free cash flow conversion, which are supplemental measures that are not required by, or presented in accordance with, accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”).
Gross Profit (excluding depreciation and amortization) is defined as revenue less cost of services (excluding depreciation and amortization). Gross Profit Margin (excluding depreciation and amortization) is defined as Gross Profit (excluding depreciation and amortization) as a percentage of revenue. Management believes Gross Profit to be a useful profitability measure to assess the performance of our businesses and ability to manage cost.
Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income/(loss) before the impact of income tax (benefit)/expense, interest expense, net, depreciation and amortization, share based compensation, impairment expense on goodwill and intangible assets, restructuring and other costs, loss/(gain) on disposal of a subsidiaries and other assets, net, and other income/(expense), net. These adjustments also include certain costs and transaction items that are not reflective of the underlying operating performance of the Company. Adjusted EBITDA margin is defined as Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of Revenue. Management believes Adjusted EBITDA to be a useful profitability measure to assess the performance of our businesses and improves the comparability of operating results across reporting periods.
Free cash flow is defined as net cash flows provided by/used in operating activities, adjusted for the impact of capital expenditure, payments relating to restructuring and other costs, cash paid for interest and movements in customer accounts and other restricted cash. Capital expenditure includes purchases of property plant & equipment and purchases of other intangible assets, including software development costs. Capital expenditure does not include purchases of merchant portfolios.
