Paysign, Inc. (NASDAQ: PAYS), a leading provider of prepaid card programs, comprehensive patient affordability offerings, digital banking services and integrated payment processing, today announced financial results for the second quarter 2024.

“We are extremely pleased with Paysign’s second-quarter financial results, as we continue to grow our business at a rapid pace,” stated Mark Newcomer, President & CEO of Paysign. “In the second quarter, revenues grew 29.8%, and adjusted EBITDA grew 95.8%, driven by double-digit revenue growth in our plasma donor compensation business and an outstanding 266.8% revenue increase in our patient affordability business. Our gross margin percentage increased by 207 basis points, and we expect to see continued margin expansion as patient affordability remains a dominant growth driver for the company. Looking forward, we anticipate maintaining our current trajectory across our two major businesses of plasma donor compensation and pharma patient affordability while seeking additional high growth opportunities within the payments space. We remain committed to delivering sustainable growth and maximizing shareholder value.”

Quarterly Results

The following additional details are provided to aid in understanding Paysign’s second quarter 2024 results versus the year-ago period:

  • Total revenues increased 29.8%, or $3.29 million. The increase was attributable to the following factors:
    • Plasma revenue increased $1.26 million, or 12.6%, primarily due to an increase in plasma locations, plasma donations and dollars loaded to cards with average monthly revenue per center up 4.4% to $7,916 versus $7,581 in the same period last year. Total plasma center count increased by eight net new centers, exiting the quarter with 477 centers.
    • Pharma patient affordability revenue increased $1.95 million, or 266.8%, primarily due to the growth and launch of new pharma patient affordability programs. We added eight net new patient affordability programs throughout the second quarter, exiting with 61 active programs.
    • Other revenue increased by $86 thousand, or 28.9%, primarily due to the growth in our payroll business and the growth and launch of new prepaid disbursement programs.
  • Cost of revenues increased 24.3%, or $1.32 million. Cost of revenues is comprised of transaction processing fees, data connectivity fees, data center expenses, network fees, bank fees, card production costs, postage costs, customer service, program management, application integration setup, fraud charges and sales and commission expense. The quarter-over-quarter increase in cost of revenues was primarily due to an increase in cardholder usage activity and associated network expenses such as interchange and ATM costs, an increase in network expenses and sales commissions related to the growth in our pharma patient affordability business, an increase in fraud charges, an increase in customer service expenses associated with wage inflation pressures and the overall growth in our business.
  • Gross profit increased by $1.97 million, or 35.1%, primarily due to increased plasma and pharma patient affordability revenue. Our gross profit margin increased to 52.9% versus 50.9% in the prior year, an increase of 207 basis points, primarily due to a greater revenue contribution from our patient affordability business (18.7% versus 6.6%).
  • Selling, general and administrative expenses (SG&A) increased by $716 thousand, or 13.5%, and consisted primarily of an increase in (i) compensation and benefits of approximately $1.30 million due to continued hiring to support the company’s growth, a tight labor market and increased benefit costs; (ii) technologies and telecom of approximately $372 thousand primarily related to ongoing platform security investments; and (iii) all other operating expenses of approximately $12 thousand. This increase was offset by a decrease in stock compensation of approximately $160 thousand, a decrease in non-IT professional services of approximately $162 thousand and a $647 thousand increase in the amount of capitalized platform development costs. We exited the quarter with 149 employees versus 108 employees at the end of the same period last year.
  • Depreciation and amortization expense increased by $482 thousand, or 50.3%, due mainly to the continued capitalization of new software development costs and equipment purchases related to the enhancement to our processing platform and ongoing hiring to support our growth.
  • Other income increased by $212 thousand primarily related to an increase in interest income resulting from higher average cash balances and higher interest rates.
  • Income tax provision increased as a result of tax benefits related to our stock-based compensation, changes to the company’s valuation allowance recorded on its net deferred tax assets and a pretax loss in the prior period. The effective tax rate was 25.8% versus (126.3%) compared to the same period last year.
  • Net income of $697 thousand, or $0.01 per diluted share, improved by $801 thousand compared to net loss of $104 thousand, or $(0.00) per diluted share, during the same period in the prior year. The overall change in net income relates to the factors mentioned above.
  • “EBITDA,” defined as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization expense, which is a non-GAAP metric, increased by $1.25 million, or 403.1%, to $1.57 million due to the factors mentioned above.
  • “Adjusted EBITDA,” which excludes stock-based compensation from EBITDA, and which is a non-GAAP metric used by management to gauge the operating performance of the business, increased by $1.09 million, or 95.8%, to $2.24 million, or $0.04 per diluted share, due to the factors mentioned above.

Second Quarter 2024 Milestones

  • Exited the quarter with approximately 6.8 million cardholders and approximately 610 card programs.
  • Quarter-over-quarter revenue increased 29.8%.
  • Plasma revenue increased 12.6%.
  • Pharma patient affordability revenue increased 266.8%.
  • Added eight net new plasma donation centers, ending the quarter with 477 centers.
  • Added eight net new pharma patient affordability programs, ending the quarter with 61 active programs.
  • Restricted cash balances increased 10.7% from December 31, 2023, to $102.24 million, primarily due to increased funds on cards and growth in customer programs.

Balance Sheet at June 30, 2024

The company’s cashflows increased $24.18 million from December 31, 2023, largely related to the launch of new pharma patient affordability programs and new plasma centers.

Unrestricted cash increased $14.30 million to $31.29 million from December 31, 2023. The increase resulted primarily from payment timing on pass-through claim reimbursement receivables and related payables associated with our patient affordability business in the amount of $16.02 million. In addition to the impact of net pass-through claim reimbursements, the positive impact of net income and non-cash adjustments offset by investment in fixed assets and net increase in assets and liabilities lead to the increase in the unrestricted cash balance.

Restricted cash increased $9.88 million to $102.2 million from December 31, 2023, primarily due to increases in funds on cards of $3.74 million and customer deposits for our plasma and pharma customers of $6.15 million. Restricted cash are funds used for customer card funding and pharmaceutical claim reimbursements with a corresponding offset under current liabilities.

2024 Outlook

“We delivered another solid quarter with year-over-year quarterly revenues increasing 29.8% to $14.3 million and adjusted EBITDA increasing 95.8% to $2.2 million as our pharma patient affordability business continued its growth momentum. We exited the quarter with 477 plasma centers and 61 pharma patient affordability programs, an increase of 13 and 18, respectively, since the end of 2023,” said Jeff Baker, Paysign CFO.

“Due to the outperformance of our business during the first two quarters of the year relative to our initial expectations, we are raising our full year guidance as follows: total revenues are estimated to be in the range of $56.5 million to $58.5 million versus our initial guidance of $54.5 million to $56.7 million, reflecting year-over-year growth of 20% to 24%. Plasma revenues are estimated to account for approximately 78% of total revenue while pharma revenue is estimated to account for approximately 20% of total revenue. Full-year gross profit margins are expected to be between 54.0% and 55.0% versus our initial guidance of 52.0% to 54.0% reflecting increased revenue contribution from our pharma patient affordability business. Operating expenses are expected to be between $30.0 million and $32.0 million versus our initial guidance of $29.0 and $31.0 million as we continue to make investments in people and technology to support the growth of our business. Of this amount, depreciation and amortization are expected to remain unchanged between $6.0 million and $6.5 million, while stock-based compensation is expected to remain unchanged between $2.7 million and $3.0 million. Given the continued increases in our average daily balances of unrestricted and restricted cash and the current interest rate environment, we expect to generate interest income of $3.0 million to $3.2 million. We expect our tax rate to be between 28.0% and 29.0% and our fully diluted share count outstanding to be 55.8 million to 56.0 million. Taking all of the factors above into consideration, we expect net income to be in the range of $2.0 million to $3.0 million, or $0.04 to $0.06 per diluted share, and adjusted EBITDA to be in the range of $9.0 million to $10.0 million (15.0% to 17.0% of total revenues), or $0.16 to $0.18 per diluted share,” Baker concluded.

Paysign, Inc. Non-GAAP Measures

To supplement Paysign’s financial results presented on a GAAP basis, we use non-GAAP measures that exclude from net income the following cash and non-cash items: interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization and stock-based compensation. We believe these non-GAAP measures used by management to gauge the operating performance of the business help investors better evaluate our past financial performance and potential future results. Non-GAAP measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for comparable GAAP accounting, and investors should read them in conjunction with the company’s financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP. The non-GAAP measures we use may be different from, and not directly comparable to, similarly titled measures used by other companies.

“EBITDA” is defined as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization expense. “Adjusted EBITDA” reflects the adjustment to EBITDA to exclude stock-based compensation charges.

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not intended to represent cash flows from operations, operating income (loss) or net income (loss) as defined by U.S. GAAP as indicators of operating performances. Management cautions that amounts presented in accordance with Paysign’s definition of Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similar measures disclosed by other companies because not all companies calculate Adjusted EBITDA in the same manner.
