Proprietary Gateway Technology Delivers Highest Authorization Rates and Fewest Outages in Competitive Analysis
ATLANTA--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Sep. 23, 2025-- Repay Holdings Corporation (NASDAQ: RPAY) ("REPAY"), a leading provider of vertically-integrated payment solutions, is proud to be honored by TSG (The Strawhecker Group) as the most reliable gateway provider according to key performance metrics. Based on mid-year data powered by TSG’s Global Experience Monitoring (GEM) platform, REPAY’s gateway was recognized as having the highest authorization rate and lowest gateway minute outage.
GEM monitors real card transactions and pings from over 30 global locations across North America, South America, Europe, and Asia Pacific 24/7/365 to benchmark gateway performance. GEM is different from other monitoring solutions because it provides the client’s perspective of performance.
For January through June 2025, REPAY’s gateway earned first place recognition for Highest Authorization Rate. GEM evaluates this metric by tracking the percentage of authorization failures a gateway experiences daily unrelated to the issuer, network, or cardholder.Within the same timeframe in 2025, REPAY’s gateway also earned first place recognition for Lowest Gateway Minute Outage. GEM pings locations in the United States and Canada to determine minute outages, recording an outage if at least 25% of location checks fail simultaneously. Additionally, REPAY was runner-up for Best Gateway Uptime, based on performance checks from over 35 global locations to determine the gateway’s availability.
“Payment reliability is absolutely critical for today's merchants and enterprises," said Mike Trilli, GEM Product Manager at TSG. "When businesses partner with a payments provider that ensures exceptional availability and minimizes disruptions, they can boost revenue growth, safeguard customer loyalty, and eliminate operational friction. REPAY's gateway reliability and sustained high-level performance truly stood out to us.”
"These mid-year results demonstrate the strength and reliability of our proprietary gateway technology," said David Guthrie, CTO of REPAY. “While many of our direct competitors rely on third-party solutions, REPAY’s investment in our gateway infrastructure continues to deliver superior performance for our clients when it matters most.”

| Net (loss) income(2) | (4.2) | 3.2 | (4.0) | (8.2) | (108.0) | ||||
| Adjusted EBITDA (3) | 33.7 | 35.1 | 36.5 | 33.2 | 31.8 | ||||
| Net cash provided by operating activities | 31.0 | 60.1 | 34.3 | 2.5 | 33.1 | ||||
| Free Cash Flow (3) | 19.3 | 48.8 | 23.5 | (8.0) | 22.6 | ||||
| Free Cash Flow Conversion(3) | 57% | 139% | 64% | (24%) | 71% |
| (1) | Gross profit represents revenue less costs of services (exclusive of depreciation and amortization). | |
| (2) | During the second quarter of 2025, Net loss was impacted by a $103.8 million goodwill impairment loss primarily related to the Consumer Payments segment. Further information about this non-cash impairment loss can be found in the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2025. | |
| (3) | Adjusted EBITDA, Free Cash Flow and Free Cash Flow Conversion are non-GAAP financial measures. See “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” and the reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA, Free Cash Flow and Free Cash Flow Conversion to their most comparable GAAP measure provided below for additional information. |
“During the second quarter, REPAY executed on our path to reaccelerating growth during 2025, while making great progress to improve on our go-to-market, implementation pipelines, and operational excellence,” said John Morris, Chief Executive Officer of REPAY. “We began to deploy incremental strategic investments into our growth opportunities, while sequentially improving Free Cash Flow Conversion to over 71%. REPAY used the second quarter as a prime opportunity to buy back approximately 5% of REPAY’s outstanding shares and we have used a total of $38 million in 2025 to repurchase shares through August 11th. Looking forward, REPAY is building momentum from our strategic initiatives to accelerate growth exiting the year.”
Second Quarter 2025 Business Highlights
The Company's achievements in the quarter, including those highlighted below, reinforce management's belief in the ability of the Company to drive durable and long-term growth across REPAY's diversified business model.
- Reported and normalized gross profit growth1 declines of 2% and 1% year-over-year due to impacts from previously announced client losses, which include certain losses due to consolidation
- Consumer Payments gross profit was approximately flat, which was impacted by the previously announced client losses
- Business Payments normalized gross profit growth1 of approximately 1% year-over-year, which includes a headwind related to the previously communicated client loss during 2024
- Net loss included a non-cash goodwill impairment loss of $103.8 million primarily in the Consumer Payments segment. The write-down was a result of a decline in the share price during the second quarter, and changes in the discount rate and comparable market multiples used in determining goodwill impairment.
- Added three new integrated software partners to bring the total to 286 software relationships as of the end of the second quarter
- Accelerated AP supplier network to over 440,000, an increase of approximately 47% year-over-year
- Instant funding volumes increased by approximately 38% year-over-year
- Added 10 new credit unions bringing total credit union clients to 353
2025 Outlook
REPAY reiterates its previously provided outlook for fiscal year 2025, as shown below:
- Sequential quarterly acceleration of normalized gross profit growth1, including a fourth quarter year-over-year growth rate of high-single digits to low double-digits;
- Free Cash Flow Conversion expected to accelerate above 60% by the fourth quarter of 2025
| 1 | Normalized gross profit growth is a non-GAAP financial measure that accounts for cyclical political media spending contributions. See “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” and the reconciliation to their most comparable GAAP measure provided below for additional information. | ||
REPAY does not provide quantitative reconciliation of forward-looking, non-GAAP financial measures, such as forecasted normalized gross profit growth and Free Cash Flow Conversion, to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, because it is difficult to reliably predict or estimate the relevant components without unreasonable effort due to future uncertainties that may potentially have a significant impact on such calculations, and providing them may imply a degree of precision that would be confusing or potentially misleading.
Segments
The Company reports its financial results based on two reportable segments.
Consumer Payments –The Consumer Payments segment provides payment processing solutions (including debit and credit card processing, Automated Clearing House (“ACH”) processing and other electronic payment acceptance solutions, as well as REPAY’s loan disbursement product) that enable REPAY’s clients to collect payments from and disburse funds to consumers and includes its clearing and settlement solutions (“RCS”). RCS is REPAY’s proprietary clearing and settlement platform through which it markets customizable payment processing programs to other ISOs and payment facilitators. The strategic vertical markets served by the Consumer Payments segment primarily include personal loans, automotive loans, receivables management, credit unions, mortgage servicing, consumer healthcare and diversified retail.
Business Payments –The Business Payments segment provides payment processing solutions (including accounts payable automation, debit and credit card processing, virtual credit card processing, ACH processing and other electronic payment acceptance solutions) that enable REPAY’s clients to collect payments from or send payments to other businesses.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This report includes certain non-GAAP financial measures that management uses to evaluate the Company’s operating business, measure performance, and make strategic decisions. Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure that represents net income prior to interest expense, tax expense, depreciation and amortization, as adjusted to add back certain charges deemed to not be part of normal operating expenses, non-cash charges and/or non-recurring charges, such as non-cash impairment loss, non-cash change in fair value of assets and liabilities, share-based compensation charges, transaction expenses, restructuring and other strategic initiative costs, gain on extinguishment of debt and other non-recurring charges. Adjusted Net Income is a non-GAAP financial measure that represents net income prior to amortization of acquisition-related intangibles, as adjusted to add back certain charges deemed to not be part of normal operating expenses, such as non-cash impairment loss, non-cash change in fair value of assets and liabilities, share-based compensation expense, transaction expenses, restructuring and other strategic initiative costs, other non-recurring charges, non-cash interest expense and net of tax effect associated with these adjustments. Adjusted Net Income is adjusted to exclude amortization of all acquisition-related intangibles as such amounts are inconsistent in amount and frequency and are significantly impacted by the timing and/or size of acquisitions. Management believes that the adjustment of acquisition-related intangible amortization supplements GAAP financial measures because it allows for greater comparability of operating performance. Although REPAY excludes amortization from acquisition-related intangibles from its non-GAAP expenses, management believes that it is important for investors to understand that such intangibles were recorded as part of purchase accounting and contribute to revenue generation. Adjusted Net Income per share is a non-GAAP financial measure that represents Adjusted Net Income divided by the weighted average number of shares of Class A common stock outstanding (on an as-converted basis assuming conversion of the outstanding units exchangeable for shares of Class A common stock) for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 (excluding shares subject to forfeiture). Free Cash Flow is a non-GAAP financial measure that represents net cash flow provided by operating activities less total capital expenditures. Free Cash Flow Conversion represents Free Cash Flow divided by Adjusted EBITDA. Normalized gross profit growth represents year-over-year gross profit growth that excludes incremental gross profit attributable to political media spending associated with the 2024 election cycle in our media payments business. REPAY believes that Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Net Income per share, Free Cash Flow, Free Cash Flow Conversion and Normalized gross profit growth provide useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating its operating results in the same manner as management. However, these non-GAAP financial measures are not financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered as a substitute for net income, operating profit, net cash provided by operating activities, or any other operating performance measure calculated in accordance with GAAP. Using these non-GAAP financial measures to analyze REPAY’s business has material limitations because the calculations are based on the subjective determination of management regarding the nature and classification of events and circumstances that investors may find significant. In addition, although other companies in REPAY’s industry may report measures titled as the same or similar measures, such non-GAAP financial measures may be calculated differently from how REPAY calculates its non-GAAP financial measures, which reduces their overall usefulness as comparative measures. Because of these limitations, you should consider REPAY’s non-GAAP financial measures alongside other financial performance measures, including net income, net cash provided by operating activities and REPAY’s other financial results presented in accordance with GAAP.

Management believes that the adjustment of acquisition-related intangible amortization supplements GAAP financial measures because it allows for greater comparability of operating performance. Although REPAY excludes amortization from acquisition-related intangibles from its non-GAAP expenses, management believes that it is important for investors to understand that such intangibles were recorded as part of purchase accounting and contribute to revenue generation. Amortization of intangibles that relate to past acquisitions will recur in future periods until such intangibles have been fully amortized. Any future acquisitions may result in the amortization of additional intangibles. |

Financial Institutions Using MeridianLink Can Now Offer More Convenient, Secure Payment and Account Funding Methods to Members
ATLANTA--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Repay Holdings Corporation (NASDAQ: RPAY) (“REPAY”), a leading provider of vertically-integrated payment solutions, today announced new enhancements to the company’s integration with MeridianLink, Inc. (NYSE: MLNK), a leading provider of modern software platforms for financial institutions and consumer reporting agencies. REPAY’s innovative, trusted payment technology now enables credit unions and banks in MeridianLink’s network to offer new members streamlined account funding via debit card, ACH and digital wallets, including Apple Pay and Google Pay.
Expanding account funding options with REPAY’s integrated payment technology enables financial institutions that use MeridianLink® Opening to accept funds into new member accounts faster and improve the consumer experience both in-branch and online. Providing a variety of convenient account funding methods, leveraging the same verifiable payment methods consumers prefer to use daily, simplifies the onboarding process for both credit unions and their members.
"We strive to continually enhance our platforms in strategic ways that strengthen our customers' business capabilities while simultaneously addressing evolving member needs,” said Megan Pulliam, SVP, MeridianLink® Marketplace. “Flexible account funding options, enabled by our partnership with REPAY, are an essential advantage for our financial institutions and will enable them to uphold the high standards of customer service and convenience members have come to expect."
These enhancements supplement REPAY’s existing integration with MeridianLink® Collect, which optimizes loan collection operations by simplifying accounting and consumer payment processes. REPAY’s secure payment solutions enable MeridianLink’s broad network of financial institution customers to streamline processing efficiencies by accepting ACH and card payments via web, mobile, Interactive Voice Response (IVR) or text. Offering a wide variety of payment modalities provides borrowers with options to make loan payments in the way that is most convenient for them and improves the overall experience.
“As digital payment options increase in consumer popularity, offering convenient account funding and payment methods is critical to attracting and retaining new members,” said Jake Moore, EVP, Consumer Payments, REPAY. "Our expanded partnership with MeridianLink empowers financial institutions and consumers to build trust and forge stronger relationships as a result of REPAY’s advanced payment technology solutions."
Regardless of payment method, REPAY’s integrated platform tracks, logs and posts payment data in real time, ensuring payment updates and information are accurately reflected in credit unions’ records immediately after a payment is submitted, mitigating the risk of invalid penalties and unnecessary collection efforts that are triggered for past-due payments. This not only smooths accounting processes for credit unions and banks but also supports better relationships with members due to improved confidence and communication.

Company Provides 2025 Outlook Including Accelerating Growth
Announced Conclusion of Strategic Review Process
Announced Increased Share Repurchase Program Authorization to $75 million
ATLANTA--(BUSINESS WIRE)--May 12, 2025-- Repay Holdings Corporation (NASDAQ: RPAY) (“REPAY” or the “Company”), a leading provider of vertically-integrated payment solutions, today reported financial results for its first quarter ended March 31, 2025.
First Quarter 2025 Financial Highlights
| ($ in millions) | Q1 2024 | Q2 2024 | Q3 2024 | Q4 2024 | Q1 2025 | ||||||
| Revenue | $80.7 | $74.9 | $79.1 | $78.3 | $77.3 | ||||||
| Gross profit (1) | 61.5 | 58.6 | 61.6 | 59.7 | 58.7 | ||||||
| Net (loss) income | (5.4) | (4.2) | 3.2 | (4.0) | (8.2) | ||||||
| Adjusted EBITDA (2) | 35.5 | 33.7 | 35.1 | 36.5 | 33.2 | ||||||
| Net cash provided by operating activities | 24.8 | 31.0 | 60.1 | 34.3 | 2.5 | ||||||
| Free Cash Flow (2) | 13.7 | 19.3 | 48.8 | 23.5 | (8.0) | ||||||
| Free Cash Flow Conversion (2) | 38% | 57% | 139% | 64% | 24% |
| (1) | Gross profit represents revenue less costs of services (exclusive of depreciation and amortization). |
| (2) | Adjusted EBITDA, Free Cash Flow and Free Cash Flow Conversion are non-GAAP financial measures. See “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” and the reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA, Free Cash Flow and Free Cash Flow Conversion to their most comparable GAAP measure provided below for additional information. |
“REPAY is focused on executing on core growth, which continues to reinforce the ongoing secular tailwinds and resiliency of our business model. Our Business Payments segment normalized gross profit growth1 accelerated to 12% year-over-year, driven by the strength of our core accounts payable business, the onboarding of new enterprise customers, and the success of recent monetization efforts. Free cash flow was impacted by one-time working capital impacts as well as previously announced client losses. We believe the reported first quarter growth rates do not fully reflect our underlying business trends, and in fact, our 2025 outlook includes sequential quarterly normalized gross profit growth1 resulting in a high single-digit to low double-digit fourth quarter growth rate, as well as free cash flow conversion accelerating throughout the year. Our core growth strategy remains robust, with a relentless focus on profitable growth, optimized payment flows, and operational efficiency to create lasting value for our shareholders,” said John Morris, Chief Executive Officer of REPAY.
“The Board has made the decision to conclude our strategic review process at this time. I am confident in REPAY’s ability to deliver growth and value for our shareholders in the near term and believe that we will be well positioned for positive organic results as we move through 2025. Additionally, we separately announced that our Board of Directors approved an increase in our share repurchase authorization by $25 million. I also want to express our heartfelt gratitude to Tim Murphy, our Chief Financial Officer, for his 11 years of dedicated service and partnership. Tim will be leaving REPAY in the coming days, and we all wish him every success in his future endeavors.”
First Quarter 2025 Business Highlights
The Company's achievements in the quarter, including those highlighted below, reinforce management's belief in the ability of the Company to drive durable and long-term growth across REPAY's diversified business model.
- Reported and normalized gross profit1 declines of 5% and 4% year-over-year due to impacts from previously announced client losses, which include certain losses due to consolidation
- Consumer Payments gross profit declined approximately 5% year-over-year, which was impacted by the previously announced client losses
- Business Payments normalized gross profit growth1 of approximately 12% year-over-year
- Accelerated AP supplier network to over 390,000, an increase of approximately 40% year-over-year
- Added three new integrated software partners to bring the total to 283 software relationships as of the end of the first quarter
- Instant funding volumes increased by approximately 19% year-over-year
- Added 14 new credit unions bringing total credit union clients to 343
2025 Outlook
For fiscal year 2025, the Company now expects:
- Sequential quarterly acceleration of normalized gross profit growth1, including a fourth quarter year-over-year growth rate of high-single digits to low double-digits;
- Free cash flow conversion expected to exceed 50% in the second quarter, accelerating above 60% by the fourth quarter of 2025
REPAY does not provide quantitative reconciliation of forward-looking, non-GAAP financial measures, such as forecasted normalized gross profit growth and Free Cash Flow Conversion, to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, because it is difficult to reliably predict or estimate the relevant components without unreasonable effort due to future uncertainties that may potentially have a significant impact on such calculations, and providing them may imply a degree of precision that would be confusing or potentially misleading.
1 Normalized gross profit growth is a non-GAAP financial measure that accounts for cyclical political media spending contributions. See “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” and the reconciliation to their most comparable GAAP measure provided below for additional information.

The Company reports its financial results based on two reportable segments.
Consumer Payments –The Consumer Payments segment provides payment processing solutions (including debit and credit card processing, Automated Clearing House (“ACH”) processing and other electronic payment acceptance solutions, as well as REPAY’s loan disbursement product) that enable REPAY’s clients to collect payments from and disburse funds to consumers and includes its clearing and settlement solutions (“RCS”).

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This report includes certain non-GAAP financial measures that management uses to evaluate the Company’s operating business, measure performance, and make strategic decisions. Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure that represents net income prior to interest expense, tax expense, depreciation and amortization, as adjusted to add back certain charges deemed to not be part of normal operating expenses, non-cash charges and/or non-recurring charges, such as gain on extinguishment of debt, non-cash change in fair value of assets and liabilities, share-based compensation charges, transaction expenses, restructuring and other strategic initiative costs and other non-recurring charges. Adjusted Net Income is a non-GAAP financial measure that represents net income prior to amortization of acquisition-related intangibles, as adjusted to add back certain charges deemed to not be part of normal operating expenses, such as non-cash change in fair value of assets and liabilities, share-based compensation expense, transaction expenses, restructuring and other strategic initiative costs, other non-recurring charges, non-cash interest expense and net of tax effect associated with these adjustments. Adjusted Net Income is adjusted to exclude amortization of all acquisition-related intangibles as such amounts are inconsistent in amount and frequency and are significantly impacted by the timing and/or size of acquisitions. Management believes that the adjustment of acquisition-related intangible amortization supplements GAAP financial measures because it allows for greater comparability of operating performance. Although REPAY excludes amortization from acquisition-related intangibles from its non-GAAP expenses, management believes that it is important for investors to understand that such intangibles were recorded as part of purchase accounting and contribute to revenue generation. Adjusted Net Income per share is a non-GAAP financial measure that represents Adjusted Net Income divided by the weighted average number of shares of Class A common stock outstanding (on an as-converted basis assuming conversion of the outstanding units exchangeable for shares of Class A common stock) for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024 (excluding shares subject to forfeiture). Free Cash Flow is a non-GAAP financial measure that represents net cash flow provided by operating activities less total capital expenditures. Free Cash Flow Conversion represents Free Cash Flow divided by Adjusted EBITDA. Normalized gross profit growth represents year-over-year gross profit growth that excludes incremental gross profit attributable to political media spending associated with the 2024 election cycle in our media payments business. REPAY believes that Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Net Income per share, Free Cash Flow, Free Cash Flow Conversion and Normalized gross profit growth provide useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating its operating results in the same manner as management. However, these non-GAAP financial measures are not financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered as a substitute for net income, operating profit, net cash provided by operating activities, or any other operating performance measure calculated in accordance with GAAP. Using these non-GAAP financial measures to analyze REPAY’s business has material limitations because the calculations are based on the subjective determination of management regarding the nature and classification of events and circumstances that investors may find significant. In addition, although other companies in REPAY’s industry may report measures titled as the same or similar measures, such non-GAAP financial measures may be calculated differently from how REPAY calculates its non-GAAP financial measures, which reduces their overall usefulness as comparative measures. Because of these limitations, you should consider REPAY’s non-GAAP financial measures alongside other financial performance measures, including net income, net cash provided by operating activities and REPAY’s other financial results presented in accordance with GAAP.

| Total Depreciation and Amortization (1) | $26,771 | $25,529 | $24,382 |
| (1) | Adjusted Net Income is adjusted to exclude amortization of all acquisition-related intangibles as such amounts are inconsistent in amount and frequency and are significantly impacted by the timing and/or size of acquisitions (see corresponding adjustments in the reconciliation of net income to Adjusted Net Income presented above). Management believes that the adjustment of acquisition-related intangible amortization supplements GAAP financial measures because it allows for greater comparability of operating performance. Although REPAY excludes amortization from acquisition-related intangibles from its non-GAAP expenses, management believes that it is important for investors to understand that such intangibles were recorded as part of purchase accounting and contribute to revenue generation. Amortization of intangibles that relate to past acquisitions will recur in future periods until such intangibles have been fully amortized. Any future acquisitions may result in the amortization of additional intangibles. | |
| (h) | Represents amortization of non-cash deferred debt issuance costs. | |
| (i) | Represents pro forma income tax adjustment effect associated with items adjusted above. | |
| (j) | Represents the weighted average number of shares of Class A common stock outstanding (on an as-converted basis assuming conversion of outstanding Post-Merger REPAY Units) for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024. These numbers do not include any shares issuable upon conversion of the Company’s convertible senior notes. See the reconciliation of basic weighted average shares outstanding to the non-GAAP Class A common stock outstanding on an as-converted basis for each respective period below: | |
| Three Months Ended March 31, | ||

| Shares of Class A common stock outstanding (on an as-converted basis) | 94,358,268 | 97,062,303 |
| (k) | Reflects a gain on the repurchase of 2026 Notes principal, net of a write-off of debt issuance costs relating to the repurchased principal. | ||
| (l) | Represents year-over-year gross profit growth that excludes incremental gross profit attributable to political media spending in Q1 2024 associated with the 2024 election cycle in our media payments business. | ||
