“Our second quarter results demonstrate the resilience of
Euronet's
diversified global payments platform and our ability to consistently deliver profitable growth while investing for the future," said
Michael J. Brown
,
Euronet's
Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. "We generated 10% growth in adjusted earnings per share, reflecting the steady contribution from our Payments Infrastructure and epay businesses, despite a challenging macro backdrop.
One of the most encouraging developments this quarter was the continued momentum of the digital accelerators we introduced at our Investor Day in May. Collectively, revenue from these initiatives increased 31% year-over-year and represented approximately 26% of our total revenue during the quarter, demonstrating that our investments in initiatives such as
CoreCard
, merchant acquiring, payment processing and digital money transfers are becoming meaningful growth drivers while further diversifying our business.
Payments Infrastructure delivered another solid quarter, driven by continued growth in merchant acquiring and payment processing despite seeing some softness in European travel. epay generated another quarter of profitable growth while continuing to expand higher-value digital content and payment products. Cross-Border Payments growth faced pressure from
U.S
. immigration policy and favorable prior-year dynamics that did not repeat. However, our digital money transfer business and Dandelion platform continued to perform well, reinforcing our confidence in the business’s long-term growth opportunity. Looking ahead, we remain confident in our ability to deliver our full-year adjusted earnings per share growth outlook of 10% to 15%.”
Segment and Other Results
As unveiled at its Investor Day, the Company has changed the name of its EFT Processing Segment to Payments Infrastructure and the name of its Money Transfer Segment to Cross-Border Payments. The Company thinks these name changes more accurately reflect the products and services provided by these segments.
The Payments Infrastructure Segment
(formerly EFT Processing Segment) reports the following results for second quarter 2026 compared with the same period or date in 2025:
Revenues of
$377.1 million
, an 11% increase from
$338
.5 million (10% increase on a constant currency basis).
Operating income of
$86.1 million
, a 2% increase from
$84
.6 million (2% increase on a constant currency basis).
Adjusted EBITDA of
$117
.9 million, a 7% increase from
$110
.6 million (6% increase on a constant currency basis).
Total of 57,814 installed ATMs as of
June 30, 2026
, a 1% increase from 57,326. Total of 57,071 active ATMs as of June 30, 2026, a 1% increase from 56,760 as of
June 30, 2025
.
The Payments Infrastructure (PI) Segment delivered constant currency revenue growth of 10% in the second quarter of 2026. Revenue growth was driven by continued growth in acquiring, Ren infrastructure sales and contributions from the
CoreCard
acquisition completed in the fourth quarter of 2025, tempered somewhat by softer European travel spend. Constant currency Adjusted EBITDA increased 6%, reflecting the incremental earnings contribution from the revenue drivers, supported by a consistent to improving operating expense profile. constant currency operating income grew 2%, largely due to an increase of approximately
$4.7 million
in non-cash purchase price amortization related to the
CoreCard
acquisition; absent this increase, constant currency operating income for the segment would have grown by 7%.
Network expansion was modest, with installed ATMs increasing 1% to 57,814 and active ATMs up 1% to 57,071.
The epay Segment
reports the following results for the second quarter 2026 compared with the same period or date in 2025:
Revenues of
$294.0 million
, a 5% increase from
$280
.1 million (4% increase on a constant currency basis).
Operating income of
$32.8 million
, a 5% increase from
$31
.1 million (5% increase on a constant currency basis).
Adjusted EBITDA of
$34.4 million
, a 5% increase from
$32.8 million
(5% increase on a constant currency basis).
Transactions of 986 million, an 11% decrease from 1,107 million.
POS terminals of approximately 739,000 as of June 30, 2026, a 2% increase from 721,000.
Retailer locations of approximately 355,000 as of June 30, 2026, essentially unchanged from 354,000.
The epay segment delivered another quarter of profitable growth, with constant currency revenue increasing 4%, operating income increasing 5% and adjusted EBITDA increasing 5%. The segment continued to deliver consistent underlying performance supported by higher-value digital content, prepaid and payment products, while continuing to expand its payment acceptance footprint with an increase in POS terminals and digital distribution. Transaction volumes declined primarily due to high volume low value transactions in
India
.
The Cross-Border Payments Segment
(formerly known as Money Transfer Segment) reports the following results for the second quarter 2026 compared with the same period or date in 2025:
Revenues of
$439.6 million
, a 4% decrease from
$457
.9 million (5% decrease on a constant currency basis).
Operating income of
$43
.3 million, a 34% decrease from
$65
.6 million (35% decrease on a constant currency basis).
Adjusted EBITDA of
$49.7 million
, a 31% decrease from
$71
.6 million (32% decrease on a constant currency basis).
Total transactions of 45.7 million, an 1% decrease from 46.1 million.
Total digital transactions of 7.9 million, a 33% increase from 5.9 million.
Network locations of approximately 651,000 as of
June 30, 2026
, a 3% increase from approximately 631,000.
The Cross-Border Payments (CBP) segment reported a 5% decline in constant currency revenue, while operating income and Adjusted EBITDA declined 35% and 32%, respectively. Results were impacted by several factors, most notably a contraction in the overall
U.S
. outbound remittance market compared to the prior year. The market decline was driven by the changes in
U.S
. immigration policies that further pressured outbound remittance volumes. The second quarter results were also compared to a favorable second quarter 2025 where the Company benefitted from a non-recurring fee rebate in
Pakistan
and certain favorable foreign exchange related revenue opportunities that carried high margins and did not repeat this year. These headwinds were partially offset by continued strength in our digital business, with digital transactions increasing 33%, continued momentum in our Dandelion cross-border payments platform, and a 3% expansion of our global network.
Corporate and Other
reports
$25.1 million
of expense for the second quarter 2026 compared with
$22.7 million
for the second quarter 2025. The increase in corporate expenses was primarily driven by a
$1.9 million
increase in long-term share-based compensation, which equally impacted consolidated operating income.
Balance Sheet and Financial Position
Total cash, including ATM cash, unrestricted cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash, was
$2,220.7 million
as of
June 30, 2026
, compared to
$1,713.8 million
at
December 31, 2025
. Total indebtedness was
$2,654.0 million
, up from
$2,021.8 million
at year-end. During the quarter, the Company repaid approximately
$700 million
in senior notes at maturity using borrowings under its revolving credit facilities. Availability under the Company's revolving credit facilities was approximately
$1.0 billion
. Net debt increased by
$125.3 million
during the quarter, primarily driven by higher ATM cash balances in preparation for the peak ATM season,
$50 million
of share repurchases, and partially offset by cash generated from operations, changes in working capital balances.
Outlook
The Company reiterates its 2026 adjusted EPS growth of 10% to 15% year-over-year, consistent with its 10- and 20-year compounded annualized growth rates. This outlook does not include any changes that may develop in foreign exchange rates, interest rates or other unforeseen factors.
Non-GAAP Measures
In addition to the results presented in accordance with
U.S
. GAAP, the Company presents non-GAAP financial measures, such as constant currency financial measures, adjusted EBITDA, and adjusted earnings per share. These measures should be used in addition to, and not a substitute for, revenues, operating income, net income and earnings per share computed in accordance with
U.S
. GAAP. We believe that these non-GAAP measures provide useful information to investors regarding the Company's performance and overall results of operations. These non-GAAP measures are also an integral part of the Company's internal reporting and performance assessment for executives and senior management. The non-GAAP measures used by the Company may not be comparable to similarly titled non-GAAP measures used by other companies. The attached schedules provide a full reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable
U.S
. GAAP financial measure.
The Company does not provide a reconciliation of its forward-looking non-GAAP measures to GAAP due to the inherent difficulty in forecasting and quantifying certain amounts that are necessary for GAAP and the related GAAP and non-GAAP reconciliation, including adjustments that would be necessary for foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations and other charges reflected in the Company's reconciliation of historic numbers, the amount of which, based on historical experience, could be significant.
(

Constant currency financial measures are computed as if foreign currency exchange rates did not change from the prior period. This information is provided to illustrate the impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates on the Company's results when compared to the prior period.
(

)
Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income excluding, to the extent incurred in the period, interest expense, income tax expense, depreciation, amortization, share-based compensation and other non-operating or non-recurring items that are considered expenses or income under
U.S
. GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA represents a performance measure and is not intended to represent a liquidity measure.
(

)
Adjusted earnings per share is defined as diluted
U.S
. GAAP earnings per share excluding (1), to the extent incurred in the period, the tax-effected impacts of: a) foreign currency exchange gains or losses, b) share-based compensation, c) acquired intangible asset amortization, d) non-cash income tax expense, e) non-cash investment loss/gain, and (f) dilutive shares related to the Company's convertible notes. Adjusted earnings per share represents a performance measure and is not intended to represent a liquidity measure.
