Rhea-AI Filing Summary
Cogent Communications (CCOI) Q2-25 10-Q highlights: Service revenue slipped 5.5% YoY to $246.3 m, while operating loss narrowed to $31.5 m from $47.1 m as network-operations and SG&A spending fell. Higher interest expense on new borrowings and a $5.6 m debt-extinguishment charge drove a $57.8 m net loss (-$1.21 EPS) versus a $32.3 m loss last year. For 1H-25, revenue dropped 6.3% to $493.3 m and net loss deepened to $109.8 m (-$2.30 EPS).
Dividends continued to rise (Q2: $1.01 per share, +3.6% YoY). Cash & cash equivalents increased to $213.7 m; restricted cash rose to $93.1 m, lifting current liquidity to $306.7 m.
Balance sheet shifts: the company redeemed its $500 m 2026 notes and issued $598 m of 6.50% senior secured notes due 2032 plus $170 m additional IPv4 notes, raising total long-term debt to 鈮�$1.71 b (up 鈮�$150 m). Stockholders鈥� equity fell sharply to $46.7 m, largely from cumulative losses and FX adjustments.
Cash flow: Operating cash outflow was $7.7 m; capex jumped to $114.3 m. Financing provided $136.7 m, predominately from the 2032 issuance net of note redemption and $98.7 m dividends.
Key takeaways: revenue contraction and heavier interest burden kept the firm in loss territory, but operating margin improved and debt maturity profile was extended. Close monitoring of leverage, cash burn and post-Sprint integration synergies remains critical.
Cogent Communications (CCOI) Q2-25 10-Q punti salienti: I ricavi da servizi sono diminuiti del 5,5% su base annua, raggiungendo 246,3 milioni di dollari, mentre la perdita operativa si 猫 ridotta a 31,5 milioni da 47,1 milioni grazie a una diminuzione delle spese per operazioni di rete e SG&A. Un maggior onere per interessi su nuovi prestiti e un addebito di 5,6 milioni per estinzione del debito hanno portato a una perdita netta di 57,8 milioni di dollari (-1,21 dollari per azione) rispetto a una perdita di 32,3 milioni dell'anno precedente. Nel primo semestre 2025, i ricavi sono calati del 6,3% a 493,3 milioni e la perdita netta si 猫 aggravata a 109,8 milioni (-2,30 dollari per azione).
I dividendi sono continuati a crescere (Q2: 1,01 dollari per azione, +3,6% su base annua). La liquidit脿 e le disponibilit脿 liquide sono aumentate a 213,7 milioni; la cassa vincolata 猫 salita a 93,1 milioni, portando la liquidit脿 corrente a 306,7 milioni.
Variazioni nel bilancio: la societ脿 ha rimborsato i suoi bond da 500 milioni con scadenza 2026 e ha emesso 598 milioni di dollari in obbligazioni senior garantite al 6,50% con scadenza 2032, oltre a 170 milioni aggiuntivi di note IPv4, portando il debito a lungo termine totale a circa 1,71 miliardi (in aumento di circa 150 milioni). Il patrimonio netto degli azionisti 猫 diminuito drasticamente a 46,7 milioni, principalmente a causa delle perdite cumulative e delle rettifiche di cambio.
Flusso di cassa: Il flusso di cassa operativo 猫 stato negativo per 7,7 milioni; gli investimenti sono aumentati a 114,3 milioni. Il finanziamento ha fornito 136,7 milioni, prevalentemente derivanti dall鈥檈missione 2032 al netto del rimborso dei bond e 98,7 milioni di dividendi.
Punti chiave: la contrazione dei ricavi e l鈥檃umento dell鈥檕nere per interessi hanno mantenuto la societ脿 in perdita, ma il margine operativo 猫 migliorato e il profilo di scadenza del debito 猫 stato allungato. Rimane fondamentale un attento monitoraggio della leva finanziaria, del consumo di cassa e delle sinergie post-integrazione Sprint.
Aspectos destacados de Cogent Communications (CCOI) Q2-25 10-Q: Los ingresos por servicios cayeron un 5,5% interanual hasta 246,3 millones de d贸lares, mientras que la p茅rdida operativa se redujo a 31,5 millones desde 47,1 millones debido a la disminuci贸n en gastos de operaciones de red y SG&A. Un mayor gasto por intereses en nuevos pr茅stamos y un cargo por extinci贸n de deuda de 5,6 millones impulsaron una p茅rdida neta de 57,8 millones de d贸lares (-1,21 USD por acci贸n) frente a una p茅rdida de 32,3 millones el a帽o anterior. En el primer semestre de 2025, los ingresos bajaron un 6,3% a 493,3 millones y la p茅rdida neta se profundiz贸 a 109,8 millones (-2,30 USD por acci贸n).
Los dividendos continuaron aumentando (Q2: 1,01 USD por acci贸n, +3,6% interanual). El efectivo y equivalentes aumentaron a 213,7 millones; el efectivo restringido subi贸 a 93,1 millones, elevando la liquidez corriente a 306,7 millones.
Cambios en el balance: la compa帽铆a redimi贸 sus bonos de 500 millones con vencimiento en 2026 y emiti贸 598 millones en notas senior garantizadas al 6,50% con vencimiento en 2032, adem谩s de 170 millones adicionales en notas IPv4, aumentando la deuda a largo plazo total a aproximadamente 1,71 mil millones (un aumento de aproximadamente 150 millones). El patrimonio neto de los accionistas cay贸 dr谩sticamente a 46,7 millones, principalmente debido a p茅rdidas acumuladas y ajustes por tipo de cambio.
Flujo de caja: El flujo de caja operativo fue negativo en 7,7 millones; la inversi贸n en capital aument贸 a 114,3 millones. La financiaci贸n aport贸 136,7 millones, principalmente por la emisi贸n 2032 neta de redenci贸n de notas y 98,7 millones en dividendos.
Conclusiones clave: la contracci贸n de ingresos y la mayor carga de intereses mantuvieron a la empresa en p茅rdidas, pero el margen operativo mejor贸 y se extendi贸 el perfil de vencimiento de la deuda. Es cr铆tico un seguimiento cercano del apalancamiento, el consumo de efectivo y las sinergias tras la integraci贸n con Sprint.

Faits marquants du 10-Q T2-25 de Cogent Communications (CCOI) : Les revenus de services ont diminu茅 de 5,5 % en glissement annuel pour atteindre 246,3 M$, tandis que la perte d'exploitation s'est r茅duite 脿 31,5 M$ contre 47,1 M$ gr芒ce 脿 la baisse des d茅penses d'exploitation r茅seau et SG&A. Des charges d'int茅r锚ts plus 茅lev茅es sur de nouveaux emprunts et une charge d'extinction de dette de 5,6 M$ ont conduit 脿 une perte nette de 57,8 M$ (-1,21 $ par action) contre une perte de 32,3 M$ l'an pass茅. Sur le 1er semestre 2025, le chiffre d'affaires a chut茅 de 6,3 % 脿 493,3 M$ et la perte nette s'est creus茅e 脿 109,8 M$ (-2,30 $ par action).
Les dividendes ont continu茅 d'augmenter (T2 : 1,01 $ par action, +3,6 % en glissement annuel). La tr茅sorerie et les 茅quivalents ont augment茅 脿 213,7 M$ ; la tr茅sorerie restreinte est mont茅e 脿 93,1 M$, portant la liquidit茅 courante 脿 306,7 M$.
脡volutions du bilan : la soci茅t茅 a rembours茅 ses obligations de 500 M$ arrivant 脿 茅ch茅ance en 2026 et a 茅mis 598 M$ de billets senior garantis 脿 6,50 % 茅ch茅ance 2032, plus 170 M$ suppl茅mentaires de notes IPv4, portant la dette 脿 long terme totale 脿 environ 1,71 Md$ (en hausse d'environ 150 M$). Les capitaux propres ont fortement chut茅 脿 46,7 M$, principalement en raison des pertes cumul茅es et des ajustements de change.
Flux de tr茅sorerie : La tr茅sorerie op茅rationnelle a 茅t茅 n茅gative de 7,7 M$ ; les d茅penses d'investissement ont bondi 脿 114,3 M$. Le financement a fourni 136,7 M$, principalement issus de l'茅mission 2032 nette du remboursement des obligations et de 98,7 M$ de dividendes.
Points cl茅s : la contraction du chiffre d'affaires et la charge d'int茅r锚ts plus lourde ont maintenu la soci茅t茅 en zone de pertes, mais la marge op茅rationnelle s'est am茅lior茅e et le profil d'茅ch茅ance de la dette a 茅t茅 allong茅. Une surveillance 茅troite de l'endettement, de la consommation de tr茅sorerie et des synergies post-int茅gration Sprint demeure cruciale.
Cogent Communications (CCOI) Q2-25 10-Q Highlights: Die Serviceerl枚se sanken im Jahresvergleich um 5,5 % auf 246,3 Mio. USD, w盲hrend der operative Verlust sich von 47,1 Mio. auf 31,5 Mio. USD verringerte, bedingt durch geringere Netzwerkbetriebs- und SG&A-Ausgaben. H枚here Zinsaufwendungen aus neuen Krediten sowie eine Belastung von 5,6 Mio. USD durch Schuldentilgung f眉hrten zu einem Nettoverlust von 57,8 Mio. USD (-1,21 USD je Aktie) gegen眉ber einem Verlust von 32,3 Mio. USD im Vorjahr. Im ersten Halbjahr 2025 sanken die Erl枚se um 6,3 % auf 493,3 Mio. USD, w盲hrend sich der Nettoverlust auf 109,8 Mio. USD (-2,30 USD je Aktie) erh枚hte.
Die Dividenden stiegen weiter (Q2: 1,01 USD je Aktie, +3,6 % YoY). Zahlungsmittel und Zahlungsmittel盲quivalente stiegen auf 213,7 Mio. USD; gebundenes Bargeld erh枚hte sich auf 93,1 Mio. USD, was die aktuelle Liquidit盲t auf 306,7 Mio. USD anhob.
叠颈濒补苍锄惫别谤盲苍诲别谤耻苍驳别苍: Das Unternehmen l枚ste seine 500-Millionen-USD-Anleihen mit F盲lligkeit 2026 zur眉ck und emittierte 598 Mio. USD 6,50 % Senior Secured Notes mit F盲lligkeit 2032 sowie zus盲tzliche IPv4-Notes im Wert von 170 Mio. USD, wodurch die langfristigen Schulden auf ca. 1,71 Mrd. USD (plus ca. 150 Mio. USD) anstiegen. Das Eigenkapital der Aktion盲re fiel aufgrund kumulierter Verluste und W盲hrungsanpassungen stark auf 46,7 Mio. USD.
Cashflow: Der operative Cashflow war mit 7,7 Mio. USD negativ; die Investitionen stiegen auf 114,3 Mio. USD. Die Finanzierung brachte 136,7 Mio. USD, haupts盲chlich aus der 2032er Emission abz眉glich der R眉ckzahlung von Anleihen und 98,7 Mio. USD Dividenden.
Wesentliche Erkenntnisse: Umsatzr眉ckgang und h枚here Zinsbelastung hielten das Unternehmen im Verlustbereich, jedoch verbesserte sich die operative Marge und das F盲lligkeitsprofil der Schulden wurde verl盲ngert. Ein enges Monitoring von Verschuldung, Cash-Burn und Synergien nach der Sprint-Integration bleibt entscheidend.

Insights
TL;DR: Lower revenue and bigger net loss offset improved operating margin; leverage inches up鈥攐verall slightly negative.
Revenue fell for both the quarter and YTD as Sprint fiber integration is still ramping. Despite cost controls that cut operating loss by a third, interest expense (+35% YoY) and a redemption charge widened bottom-line losses. EPS of 鈥�$1.21 badly trails the dividend, so payouts are currently funded with balance-sheet capacity rather than earnings. Equity has contracted to only 1.4% of assets, limiting cushion against volatility. Management refinanced 2026 notes into 2032 secured debt, extending tenor but adding collateral and maintaining a high blended coupon. Near-term catalysts hinge on stabilizing top-line trends and realizing announced cost synergies.
TL;DR: Debt stack reshuffled; liquidity adequate but rising secured leverage and minimal equity weaken credit profile.
Cash of $307 m (incl. restricted) plus recurring IP-Transit inflows support short-term obligations. Redemption of the 7.50% 2026 notes removes a near-term wall, yet new 6.50% 2032 notes and higher IPv4 issuance lift gross debt to 鈮�5.2脳 annualized EBITDA (est.). Interest coverage slips as expense rose to $40 m in the quarter. Equity collapse and negative free cash flow place greater reliance on capital markets. Covenants on the new secured notes tighten flexibility; however, staggered maturities (2027 unsecured, 2032 secured, IPv4 amortizing) mitigate refinancing risk through 2027. Outlook: stable liquidity but credit slightly deteriorated鈥攎onitor cash generation and covenant headroom.

Faits marquants du 10-Q T2-25 de Cogent Communications (CCOI) : Les revenus de services ont diminu茅 de 5,5 % en glissement annuel pour atteindre 246,3 M$, tandis que la perte d'exploitation s'est r茅duite 脿 31,5 M$ contre 47,1 M$ gr芒ce 脿 la baisse des d茅penses d'exploitation r茅seau et SG&A. Des charges d'int茅r锚ts plus 茅lev茅es sur de nouveaux emprunts et une charge d'extinction de dette de 5,6 M$ ont conduit 脿 une perte nette de 57,8 M$ (-1,21 $ par action) contre une perte de 32,3 M$ l'an pass茅. Sur le 1er semestre 2025, le chiffre d'affaires a chut茅 de 6,3 % 脿 493,3 M$ et la perte nette s'est creus茅e 脿 109,8 M$ (-2,30 $ par action).
Les dividendes ont continu茅 d'augmenter (T2 : 1,01 $ par action, +3,6 % en glissement annuel). La tr茅sorerie et les 茅quivalents ont augment茅 脿 213,7 M$ ; la tr茅sorerie restreinte est mont茅e 脿 93,1 M$, portant la liquidit茅 courante 脿 306,7 M$.
脡volutions du bilan : la soci茅t茅 a rembours茅 ses obligations de 500 M$ arrivant 脿 茅ch茅ance en 2026 et a 茅mis 598 M$ de billets senior garantis 脿 6,50 % 茅ch茅ance 2032, plus 170 M$ suppl茅mentaires de notes IPv4, portant la dette 脿 long terme totale 脿 environ 1,71 Md$ (en hausse d'environ 150 M$). Les capitaux propres ont fortement chut茅 脿 46,7 M$, principalement en raison des pertes cumul茅es et des ajustements de change.
Flux de tr茅sorerie : La tr茅sorerie op茅rationnelle a 茅t茅 n茅gative de 7,7 M$ ; les d茅penses d'investissement ont bondi 脿 114,3 M$. Le financement a fourni 136,7 M$, principalement issus de l'茅mission 2032 nette du remboursement des obligations et de 98,7 M$ de dividendes.
Points cl茅s : la contraction du chiffre d'affaires et la charge d'int茅r锚ts plus lourde ont maintenu la soci茅t茅 en zone de pertes, mais la marge op茅rationnelle s'est am茅lior茅e et le profil d'茅ch茅ance de la dette a 茅t茅 allong茅. Une surveillance 茅troite de l'endettement, de la consommation de tr茅sorerie et des synergies post-int茅gration Sprint demeure cruciale.
Cogent Communications (CCOI) Q2-25 10-Q Highlights: Die Serviceerl枚se sanken im Jahresvergleich um 5,5 % auf 246,3 Mio. USD, w盲hrend der operative Verlust sich von 47,1 Mio. auf 31,5 Mio. USD verringerte, bedingt durch geringere Netzwerkbetriebs- und SG&A-Ausgaben. H枚here Zinsaufwendungen aus neuen Krediten sowie eine Belastung von 5,6 Mio. USD durch Schuldentilgung f眉hrten zu einem Nettoverlust von 57,8 Mio. USD (-1,21 USD je Aktie) gegen眉ber einem Verlust von 32,3 Mio. USD im Vorjahr. Im ersten Halbjahr 2025 sanken die Erl枚se um 6,3 % auf 493,3 Mio. USD, w盲hrend sich der Nettoverlust auf 109,8 Mio. USD (-2,30 USD je Aktie) erh枚hte.
Die Dividenden stiegen weiter (Q2: 1,01 USD je Aktie, +3,6 % YoY). Zahlungsmittel und Zahlungsmittel盲quivalente stiegen auf 213,7 Mio. USD; gebundenes Bargeld erh枚hte sich auf 93,1 Mio. USD, was die aktuelle Liquidit盲t auf 306,7 Mio. USD anhob.
叠颈濒补苍锄惫别谤盲苍诲别谤耻苍驳别苍: Das Unternehmen l枚ste seine 500-Millionen-USD-Anleihen mit F盲lligkeit 2026 zur眉ck und emittierte 598 Mio. USD 6,50 % Senior Secured Notes mit F盲lligkeit 2032 sowie zus盲tzliche IPv4-Notes im Wert von 170 Mio. USD, wodurch die langfristigen Schulden auf ca. 1,71 Mrd. USD (plus ca. 150 Mio. USD) anstiegen. Das Eigenkapital der Aktion盲re fiel aufgrund kumulierter Verluste und W盲hrungsanpassungen stark auf 46,7 Mio. USD.
Cashflow: Der operative Cashflow war mit 7,7 Mio. USD negativ; die Investitionen stiegen auf 114,3 Mio. USD. Die Finanzierung brachte 136,7 Mio. USD, haupts盲chlich aus der 2032er Emission abz眉glich der R眉ckzahlung von Anleihen und 98,7 Mio. USD Dividenden.
Wesentliche Erkenntnisse: Umsatzr眉ckgang und h枚here Zinsbelastung hielten das Unternehmen im Verlustbereich, jedoch verbesserte sich die operative Marge und das F盲lligkeitsprofil der Schulden wurde verl盲ngert. Ein enges Monitoring von Verschuldung, Cash-Burn und Synergien nach der Sprint-Integration bleibt entscheidend.

DELUXE CORPORATION CONDENSED NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (dollars in thousands, except per share amounts) | ||
| NOTE 1: CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS | |||||
The consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2025, the consolidated statements of comprehensive income for the quarters and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, the consolidated statements of shareholders’ equity for the quarters and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, and the consolidated statements of cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 are unaudited. The consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2024 was derived from audited consolidated financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for a fair statement of the consolidated financial statements are included. Adjustments consist only of normal recurring items, except for any items discussed in the notes below. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year or future results. The consolidated financial statements and notes are presented in accordance with instructions for Form 10-Q and do not contain certain information included in our annual consolidated financial statements and notes. The consolidated financial statements and notes appearing in this report should be read in conjunction with the consolidated audited financial statements and related notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 (the "2024 Form 10-K").
The process of preparing our consolidated financial statements involves making various estimates and assumptions that impact the reported amounts in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. These estimates are derived from our historical experience and other relevant factors and assumptions that we consider reasonable. These factors and assumptions form the foundation for our judgments regarding the carrying values of our assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses, as well as the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. It is important to note that actual results may vary significantly from these estimates and assumptions.
Comparability – The consolidated statement of cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2024 has been modified to conform to the current year presentation. Within net cash provided by operating activities, the immaterial payments for cloud computing arrangement implementation costs are no longer presented separately. Instead, they are included in other current and non-current assets.
| NOTE 2: NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS | |||||
ASU No. 2023-09 – In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2023-09, Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. This standard modifies the required income tax disclosures to include specific categories in the income tax rate reconciliation and requires the disclosure of income tax payments by jurisdiction, among other changes. The guidance is effective for our annual consolidated financial statements for the year ending December 31, 2025. Both prospective and retrospective application of the standard is permitted upon adoption. We are currently evaluating the potential effects of adopting this new guidance on the disclosures within our consolidated financial statements.
ASU No. 2024-03 – In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses. This standard does not change the expense captions presented on the face of the income statement. Instead, it requires the disaggregation of certain expense captions into specified categories within the footnotes to the consolidated financial statements. This standard is effective for our annual consolidated financial statements for the year ending December 31, 2027. Both prospective and retrospective application of the standard is permitted upon adoption. We are currently evaluating the potential effects of adopting this new guidance on the disclosures within our consolidated financial statements.
ASU No. 2025-05 – In July 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-05, Measurement of Credit Losses for Accounts Receivable and Contract Assets. This standard introduces a practical expedient that companies can choose to apply when determining allowances for credit losses. Specifically, it permits companies to assume that the current conditions as of the balance sheet date remain unchanged throughout the remaining life of the assets. This standard is effective for us on January 1, 2026, and requires prospective application. We are currently assessing whether to adopt this practical expedient.

| NOTE 6: ACQUISITION AND DIVESTITURES | |||||
Acquisition – On August 6, 2025, we acquired certain assets of JPMorgan Chase Bank’s CheckMatch electronic check conveyance service business for cash payments totaling $25,000 , half of which was paid at closing and the remainder to be paid in the first quarter of 2026. The acquisition is expected to enhance our market position and extend the scale of our B2B Payments segment. The preliminary allocation of the purchase price to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed is currently being finalized.
Divestitures – In recent years, we decided to exit certain businesses and dispose of other assets. We believe these actions have enabled us to concentrate our resources on our growth businesses, while optimizing our operations.
In September and December 2023, we executed agreements to transition our U.S. and Canadian payroll and human resources services customers to other service providers. The recognition of income from this business exit was based on the timing of customer conversion and retention activities, which were substantially completed during 2024. The remaining cash proceeds from this business exit were received during the quarter ended March 31, 2025. The results of this business are reported as All other in Note 13.

| NOTE 8: RESTRUCTURING AND INTEGRATION EXPENSE | |||||
Restructuring and integration expense consists of costs related to initiatives aimed at driving earnings and cash flow growth, including costs related to the consolidation and migration of certain applications and processes. These costs consist primarily of consulting, project management services, internal labor, and other items such as facility closure and consolidation costs. Additionally, we have recorded employee severance costs across functional areas. Restructuring and integration expense is not allocated to our reportable business segments.
We are actively pursuing initiatives designed to support our growth strategy and to increase our efficiency, including several initiatives that we collectively refer to as our North Star program. The goal of this program is to enhance shareholder value by (1) accelerating our adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA) growth, (2) increasing cash flow, (3) reducing debt, and (4) improving our leverage ratio. North Star is a comprehensive, multi-year plan that balances cost reduction and growth opportunities. On the cost side, we are focused on refining our organizational structure and transforming our infrastructure and operations. We have successfully completed the material elements of our organizational redesign, which included consolidating similar roles, reducing hierarchical layers, and expanding spans of control. We are also leveraging technology and process automation to digitize and streamline our operations. Additionally, we are scaling our operations by consolidating back-office functions and tapping into the global labor market. The associated restructuring and integration expense, which consisted primarily of consulting and employee severance costs, was approximately $13,000 during the six months ended June 30, 2025 and approximately $22,000 during the six months ended June 30, 2024. To date, we have incurred expense of approximately $108,000 , and we anticipate that we will incur approximately $5,000 of additional North Star restructuring and integration expense in 2025.

We expect that the majority of employee reductions and the associated severance payments will be completed by early 2026.

| NOTE 9: INCOME TAX PROVISION | |||||
Our effective income tax rate for interim periods is based on the estimated annual effective tax rate, adjusted for discrete items occurring within the period. For the six months ended June 30, 2025, our effective income tax rate of 28.4 % differed from the federal statutory tax rate of 21.0 % mainly due to the impact of foreign income tax expense, including the impact of the repatriation of foreign earnings, as well as corporate state income taxes, the tax impact of non-deductible executive compensation expense, and the benefit of the federal R&D tax credit.
For the six months ended June 30, 2025, our effective income tax rate decreased from 33.7 % for the same period in 2024. The 2025 rate benefited from lower tax impacts for our foreign operations, non-deductible compensation, and share-based compensation. These benefits were partially offset by an increase in our effective state income tax rate. For the second quarter of 2025, our effective income tax rate was 29.2 %, a decrease from 33.7 % for the second quarter of 2024, with similar factors contributing to the reduction as those affecting the six-month period.
In July 2025, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act, officially titled "An Act to Provide for Reconciliation Pursuant to Title II of H. Con. Res. 14", was signed into law. The legislation is a comprehensive tax and spending bill that primarily extends provisions of the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act that were set to expire and introduces certain tax changes for businesses. Although we are currently evaluating the specific impacts of the legislation on our financial statements, our preliminary evaluation indicates that the impact to our income tax provision and deferred tax assets and liabilities will not be material to the consolidated financial statements.

We have historically offered certain health care benefits to a large number of our eligible retired U.S. employees. In addition to our retiree health care plan, we also maintain an inactive U.S. supplemental executive retirement plan. Further

Credit facility – In December 2024, we executed a $900,000 senior secured credit facility, which includes commitments of $400,000 under a revolving credit facility and $500,000 under a term loan facility. The revolving credit facility includes a $40,000 swingline sub-facility and a $25,000 letter of credit sub-facility. Loans under the revolving credit facility can be borrowed, repaid, and re-borrowed until February 1, 2029, at which point all outstanding amounts must be repaid. The term loan facility is structured to be repaid in equal quarterly installments of $9,375 through December 2027 and $12,500 from March 2028 to December 2028, with the remaining balance due on February 1, 2029. The term loan facility includes mandatory prepayment requirements related to asset sales, certain casualty or other insured damage to assets, and new debt (excluding permitted debt), subject to certain limitations. No premium or penalty is incurred for any mandatory or voluntary prepayment of the term loan facility.
17
DELUXE CORPORATION CONDENSED NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (dollars in thousands, except per share amounts) | ||
Interest on the credit facility is payable at a fluctuating rate, as outlined in the credit agreement. A commitment fee is also payable on the unused portion of the revolving credit facility. Amounts outstanding under the credit facility had a weighted-average interest rate of 6.92 % as of June 30, 2025 and 7.23 % as of December 31, 2024.
Borrowings under the credit facility are secured by substantially all of the present and future tangible and intangible personal property held by us and our subsidiaries that have guaranteed our obligations under the credit facility, subject to certain exceptions. The credit agreement includes customary covenants that limit levels of indebtedness, liens, mergers, certain asset dispositions, changes in business, advances, investments, loans, and restricted payments. These covenants are subject to various limitations and exceptions outlined in the credit agreement. Additionally, the credit agreement imposes requirements on our consolidated total leverage ratio and our consolidated secured leverage ratio. The consolidated total leverage ratio is calculated as (i) consolidated indebtedness minus unrestricted cash and cash equivalents in excess of $15,000 to (ii) consolidated EBITDA for the period, as defined in the agreement. The consolidated secured leverage ratio is defined as (i) consolidated secured indebtedness minus unrestricted cash and cash equivalents in excess of $15,000 to (ii) consolidated EBITDA for the period, as defined in the agreement. These ratios may not equal or exceed the following amounts during the periods indicated:
| Fiscal Quarter Ending | Consolidated total leverage ratio | Consolidated secured leverage ratio | ||||||||||||
| June 30, 2025 through March 31, 2026 | ||||||||||||||
| June 30, 2026 and each fiscal quarter thereafter | ||||||||||||||
Furthermore, we are required to maintain a minimum interest coverage ratio of at least 3.00 to 1.00 for the duration of the credit facility. This ratio is calculated as (i) consolidated EBITDA, as defined in the agreement, for the trailing four quarters to (ii) consolidated interest expense for the same period. In addition, if our consolidated total leverage exceeds 2.75 to 1.00, the aggregate amount of permitted dividends, incentive-based share repurchases, and repurchases under an open market repurchase program is limited to an annual amount of $60,000 , provided that the amount of any share repurchases made under an open market repurchase program does not exceed $30,000 in a fiscal year.
Failure to comply with any of these requirements would constitute an event of default, which would enable the lenders to declare all amounts outstanding immediately due and payable. In such a scenario, the lenders would also have the right to enforce their interests against the collateral pledged if we are unable to settle the outstanding amounts. As of June 30, 2025, we were in compliance with all debt covenants .
The credit agreement includes customary representations and warranties. As a condition for borrowing, it requires that all such representations and warranties be true and correct in all material respects on the date of each borrowing. This includes representations affirming that there has been no material adverse change in our business, assets, operations, or financial condition.
As of June 30, 2025, amounts available for borrowing under our revolving credit facility were as follows:

(1) We use standby letters of credit primarily to collateralize certain obligations related to our self-insured workers' compensation claims, as well as claims for environmental matters, as required by certain states. These letters of credit reduce the amount available for borrowing under our revolving credit facility.
Senior unsecured and secured notes – In June 2021, we issued $500,000 of 8.0 % senior unsecured notes that mature in June 2029. These notes were issued via a private placement under Rule 144A of the Securities Act of 1933. Proceeds from the offering, net of discount and offering costs, were $490,741 , resulting in an effective interest rate of 8.3 %. The net proceeds were utilized to finance the acquisition of First American Payment Systems, L.P. Interest payments are due each June and December. During 2022, we repurchased $25,000 of these notes on the open market.
In December 2024, we issued $450,000 of 8.125 % senior secured notes that mature in September 2029. However, if any of the senior unsecured notes issued in 2021 remain outstanding as of February 1, 2029, the 2024 senior secured notes will mature on February 1, 2029. These notes were also issued via a private placement under Rule 144A of the Securities Act of
18
DELUXE CORPORATION CONDENSED NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (dollars in thousands, except per share amounts) | ||
1933. The proceeds from this offering, net of discount and offering costs, were $441,481 , resulting in an effective interest rate of 8.6 %. The net proceeds, along with borrowings under the credit facility executed in December 2024, were used to refinance our previous senior secured term loan facility and revolving credit facility. Interest payments for these notes are due each March and September.
The indentures governing these notes include covenants that restrict our ability, and that of our restricted subsidiaries to undertake certain actions. These restrictions include limitations on incurring additional debt and liens, issuing redeemable and preferred stock, paying dividends and distributions, making loans and investments, and consolidating, merging, or selling all or substantially all of our assets.
Securitization facility – In March 2024, Deluxe Receivables LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary, established a receivables financing agreement (the “Securitization Facility”). This agreement terminates in March 2027, unless extended per its terms. The maximum borrowing capacity under the Securitization Facility is $80,000 129,000 as of June 30, 2025. The initial proceeds from these borrowings were used to prepay amounts due under our former secured term loan facility. Borrowings accrue interest at a commercial paper rate for borrowings funded by a conduit lender through the issuance of notes, and for other borrowings, at the Secured Overnight Financing Rate plus an applicable margin. A commitment fee is charged on the unused portion of the facility, and interest and fees are payable monthly. Amounts outstanding under the facility had an interest rate of 5.88 % as of June 30, 2025 and 6.22 % as of December 31, 2024.
The Securitization Facility is treated as a collateralized financing activity rather than a sale of assets. Consequently, the subsidiary is consolidated, and the receivable balances pledged as collateral are reported as accounts receivable on the consolidated balance sheets while the borrowings are classified as long-term debt. Cash receipts from the underlying receivables are reflected as operating cash flows on the consolidated statements of cash flows, and borrowings and repayments under the collateralized loans are reflected as financing cash flows.
| NOTE 12: OTHER COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES | |||||
Indemnifications – In the normal course of business, we periodically enter into agreements that incorporate general indemnification language. These indemnification provisions generally encompass third-party claims arising from our products and services. This includes, but is not limited to, service failures, breaches of security, intellectual property rights, compliance with governmental regulations, and employment-related matters. Performance under these indemnities would generally be triggered by our breach of the terms of the contract.
When disposing of assets or businesses, we often provide representations, warranties, and indemnities to cover various risks. These risks may include unknown damage to the assets, environmental risks involved in the sale of real estate, liability to investigate and remediate environmental contamination at waste disposal sites and manufacturing facilities, and unidentified tax liabilities and legal matters related to periods prior to disposition.
We do not have the ability to estimate the potential liability from such indemnities because they relate to unknown conditions. However, we do not believe that any liability under these indemnities would have a material adverse effect on our financial position, annual results of operations, or annual cash flows. We have recorded liabilities for known indemnifications related to environmental matters. These liabilities were not material as of June 30, 2025 or December 31, 2024.
Self-insurance – We are self-insured for certain costs, primarily workers' compensation claims and medical and dental benefits for active employees and those employees on long-term disability. The liabilities associated with these items represent our best estimate of the ultimate obligations for reported claims, as well as those incurred, but not reported. These liabilities totaled $9,985 as of June 30, 2025 and $8,200 as of December 31, 2024, and are included in accrued liabilities and other non-current liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets. Our workers' compensation liability is recorded at present value, and the difference between the discounted and undiscounted liability was not material as of June 30, 2025 or December 31, 2024.
Our self-insurance liabilities are estimated, in part, by considering historical claims experience, demographic factors, and other actuarial assumptions. The estimated accruals for these liabilities could be significantly affected if future events and claims differ from these assumptions and historical trends.
Litigation – The liabilities recorded for legal matters, along with the related charges recorded in each period, did not have a material impact on our financial position, results of operations, or liquidity during the periods presented. We do not anticipate that any of the currently identified claims or litigation will materially affect our financial position, results of operations, or liquidity upon resolution. However, it is important to note that litigation carries inherent uncertainties, and unfavorable rulings are possible.

Should an unfavorable ruling occur, it could have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations, or liquidity in the period of the ruling or in future periods.
| NOTE 13: BUSINESS SEGMENT INFORMATION | |||||
We operate the following reportable segments, generally organized by product and service type:
•Merchant Services – provides electronic credit and debit card authorization and payment systems and processing services, primarily to small and medium-sized retail and service businesses.
•B2B Payments – provides treasury management solutions, including remittance and lockbox processing, remote deposit capture, cash application, and payment acceptance solutions, as well as integrated accounts payable disbursements, such as eChecks, Medical Payment Exchange, and Deluxe Payment Exchange+, as well as fraud and security services.
•Data Solutions – provides data, analytics, and marketing services for both business-to-business and business-to-consumer marketing, as well as financial institution profitability reporting and business incorporation services.
•Print – provides printed personal and business checks, business essentials, including printed business forms and business accessories, as well as branded promotional, print, apparel, and digital storefront solutions.
The accounting policies applied to our segments are consistent with those outlined in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in the 2024 Form 10-K. We allocate corporate costs for shared services functions to our business segments when the costs are directly attributable to a specific segment. This allocation includes certain expenses related to sales and marketing, supply chain, real estate, finance, information technology, and legal services. Costs that cannot be directly attributed to a specific business segment are reported under Corporate operations. These costs primarily include marketing, accounting, information technology, human resources, facilities, executive management, and the legal, tax, and treasury functions that support the overall corporate structure.
Our segments operate primarily within the U.S., with some activities in Canada. The revenue and long-lived assets associated with our foreign operations were not material to our consolidated financial statements for the periods covered by this report. No 10
Our Chief Executive Officer serves as our chief operating decision maker (CODM). In this role, he evaluates the performance of each segment and makes resource allocation decisions based on adjusted EBITDA. Adjusted EBITDA for each segment excludes depreciation and amortization expense, interest expense, income tax expense, and certain other amounts that can vary from period to period. These amounts may include asset impairment charges, restructuring and integration expense, share-based compensation expense, certain legal and environmental expenses that fall outside the normal course of business, and gains or losses on the sale of businesses and long-lived assets.
The CODM uses adjusted EBITDA in both the annual planning and interim forecasting processes. On a monthly basis, the CODM reviews variances between actual results and plan, forecast, and prior year results, using this analysis to guide resource distribution and strategic adjustments. Additionally, the CODM compares segment adjusted EBITDA margins to those of competitors. This benchmarking is essential for evaluating the relative performance of our segments within the industry, ensuring that we remain competitive, and identifying areas for improvement. Furthermore, adjusted EBITDA plays a significant role in establishing employee performance-based compensation, aligning employee incentives with our financial goals. The CODM does not review segment asset information when making investment or operating decisions regarding our reportable segments.

The CODM does not review segment expense information. Instead, he receives commentary that discusses variances between planned, forecasted, or prior year adjusted EBITDA amounts. This commentary may include discussion of relevant expense categories, which can vary from period to period based on the drivers of the variances. Additionally, the CODM reviews consolidated expense information as presented in our consolidated financial statements, as well as consolidated expenses for our various shared services support functions.
For all our segments, other segment items primarily consist of cost of revenue, selling expenses, and allocated costs of our shared services functions, including information technology, real estate, and finance costs. For our digital businesses, which include Merchant Services, B2B Payments, and Data Solutions, cost of revenue includes information technology costs, payroll and related expenses, and related overhead. For the Print segment, cost of revenue includes raw materials used to manufacture products, shipping and handling costs, third-party costs for outsourced products, payroll and related expenses, information technology costs, and related overhead. Selling expenses for all segments include costs associated with our sales organization and certain marketing and advertising expenses. They also encompass the costs of our call center operations for the Merchant Services, B2B Payments, and Print segments, as well as external commissions for the B2B Payments and Print segments.

| ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS | ||
Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations ("MD&A") includes the following sections:
•Executive Overview that discusses what we do and our operating results at a high level;
•Consolidated Results of Operations, Restructuring and Integration Expense, and Segment Results that includes a more detailed discussion of our revenue and expenses;
•Cash Flows and Liquidity and Capital Resources that discusses key aspects of our cash flows, financial commitments, capital structure, and financial position; and
•Critical Accounting Estimates that discusses the estimates that involve a significant level of judgment and uncertainty and have had or are reasonably likely to have a material impact on our financial condition or results of operations.
Please be aware that this MD&A discussion contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Part I, Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 (the "2024 Form 10-K") details known material risks and important information to consider when evaluating our forward-looking statements and is incorporated into this Item 2 of this report on Form 10-Q as if fully stated herein. The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (the "Reform Act") provides a “safe harbor” for forward-looking statements to encourage companies to provide prospective information. When we use terms such as “should result,” “believe,” “intend,” “plan,” “are expected to,” “targeted,” “will continue,” “will approximate,” “is
23
anticipated,” “estimate,” “project,” “outlook,” "forecast," or similar expressions in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, in future filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, in our press releases, investor presentations, and in oral statements made by our representatives, these indicate forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Reform Act.
This MD&A includes financial information prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. ("GAAP"). Additionally, we discuss non-GAAP financial measures such as free cash flow, net debt, adjusted diluted earnings per share (EPS), consolidated adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA) and consolidated adjusted EBITDA margin. We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures, when reviewed alongside GAAP financial measures, can provide valuable insight for investors analyzing our current period operating performance and assessing our future operating performance. Consequently, our internal management reporting also includes these financial measures, which should be considered in addition to, and not as superior to or as a substitute for, GAAP financial measures. We strongly encourage investors and shareholders to review our financial statements and publicly-filed reports in their entirety and not to rely solely on any single financial measure. Our non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies and therefore, may not facilitate useful comparisons. The reconciliations of our non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures can be found in the Consolidated Results of Operations section.
| EXECUTIVE OVERVIEW | ||
We help businesses strengthen their customer relationships through trusted, technology-enabled solutions that facilitate payments, drive growth, and enhance operational efficiency. Our comprehensive suite of solutions includes merchant services, marketing and data analytics, treasury management solutions, and promotional products, along with customized checks and business forms. We support small and medium-sized businesses, financial institutions, and some of the world’s largest consumer brands. We also provide checks and accessories directly to consumers. Our reach, scale, and distribution channels position us to be a trusted business partner, providing the tools and support our customers need to succeed.
Our Strategy
A detailed discussion of our strategy can be found in Part I, Item 1 of the 2024 Form 10-K. With the completion of our infrastructure modernization and the divestiture of non-strategic businesses, our current focus is on growth investments aimed at driving scale and accelerating profit growth at a rate that exceeds revenue growth. Our operations continue to benefit from our disciplined pricing actions and comprehensive cost management practices. In 2023, we launched our North Star program with the objective of enhancing shareholder value by (1) accelerating our adjusted EBITDA growth, (2) increasing cash flow, (3) reducing debt, and (4) improving our leverage ratio.
The positive impact of the North Star initiatives is evident in the increases in adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin for the second quarter and first half of 2025, compared to the same periods in 2024. A significant contributor to this improvement was the reduction in selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses, which decreased by 8.3% in the second quarter of 2025 and by 6.0% in the first half of 2025, compared to the same periods in 2024. Additionally, free cash flow increased $35 million in the first half of 2025, and we reduced net debt by $24 million from the previous year end. These achievements underscore our commitment to enhancing financial performance and shareholder value through strategic initiatives and disciplined operational practices.
Additionally, on August 6, 2025, we acquired certain assets of JPMorgan Chase Bank’s CheckMatch electronic check conveyance service business for cash payments totaling $25,000, half of which was paid at closing and the remainder to be paid in the first quarter of 2026. The acquisition is expected to enhance our market position and extend the scale of our B2B Payments segment.
2025 Financial Results
Highlights of our financial results for the first half of 2025 compared to the first half of 2024 include:
•Consolidated revenue – Decreased by $15 million to $1.06 billion, including a decrease of $9 million resulting from business exits. The remaining decrease was primarily driven by soft demand for certain of our promotional products, as well as the continuing secular decline in order volumes for checks, business forms, and various business accessories. These impacts were partially offset by growth in our data-driven marketing and merchant services business.
•Net income – Increased by $5 million to $36 million, reflecting the impact of our pricing and cost management actions. Additionally, there was a reduction in amortization expense, stemming from accelerated amortization related to business exits and a trade name intangible asset in 2024, as well as lower acquisition-related amortization in 2025. Also, restructuring and integration expense decreased, and our data-driven marketing
24
business grew year-over-year. These positive factors were partially offset by the soft demand for certain promotional products and the continuing secular declines within the Print segment, inflationary pressures affecting materials and delivery, as well as the loss of earnings from exited businesses. Additionally, we recognized a $24 million gain from the sale of businesses and long-lived assets in the first half of 2024, which did not recur in 2025.
•Adjusted EBITDA – Increased $3 million to $207 million, despite the impact of business exits, which drove a $5 million decrease year-over-year. The increase was primarily driven by the benefits of our pricing and cost management actions, as well as growth in data-driven marketing. These positive impacts were partially offset by soft demand for certain promotional products and the continuing secular declines within the Print segment, as well as inflationary pressures on our cost structure.
Adjusted EBITDA margin increased to 19.5% for the first half of 2025, compared to 19.0% for the first half of 2024, despite the impact of business exits, which drove a 0.3 point year-over-year decrease. The increase in adjusted EBITDA margin was primarily driven by our pricing and cost management actions and the favorable impact of growth in the data-driven marketing business. These factors were partially offset by the impact of inflationary pressures. A reconciliation of net income to adjusted EBITDA can be found in the Consolidated Results of Operations section.
•Net cash provided by operating activities – Increased by $35 million to $101 million, reflecting several positive factors. Key contributors included the positive impacts of our pricing and cost management actions, a reduction in performance-based employee cash bonuses, and a reduction in restructuring and integration spend. Additionally, growth in data-driven marketing and positive working capital changes, particularly in prepaid expenses and other current assets, also contributed to the increase in net cash from operating activities. Also, interest payments decreased, as the timing of these payments changed in 2025 due to the refinancing of our debt in December 2024, which altered the schedule and structure of our financial obligations. These positive impacts were partially offset by softer demand for certain promotional products and the continuing secular declines within the Print segment, higher income tax payments related to the timing of federal tax payments, inflationary pressures on our cost structure, and the impact of business exits.
•Free cash flow – Increased by $35 million to $52 million, driven by the same factors impacting net cash provided by operating activities. We continue to reinvest the free cash flow generated by our Print business into our other businesses. Free cash flow is defined as net cash provided by operating activities less purchases of capital assets. A reconciliation of free cash flow to its comparable GAAP financial measure can be found in the Consolidated Results of Operations section.
Recent Market Conditions
We continually monitor the interest rate environment and its effect on our outstanding debt. As of June 30, 2025, 62% of our debt carried a weighted-average fixed interest rate of 8.1%, providing us with some protection against potential future interest rate increases.
In addition to interest rate considerations, we closely monitor the impact of inflation on our cost structure, including labor, delivery, and material costs. In response to inflationary pressures, we have implemented targeted price increases, particularly within our Print and Merchant Services segments. Additionally, ongoing global unrest and uncertainties related to trade policies, treaties, and tariffs could disrupt the global supply chain and lead to increased costs. To mitigate these risks, we actively monitor our supply chain to prevent delays or disruptions and to effectively leverage our purchasing power. The severity and duration of inflation remains difficult to predict and could continue to impact our business, financial position, and results of operations.
We also monitor trends in small business sentiment and consumer discretionary spending. We analyze various data sources, including information from credit card brands, the Federal Reserve, other economic forecast providers, and our proprietary data. These trends significantly influence multiple areas of our portfolio, particularly our Merchant Services and Print segments. Recent data suggests some erosion in consumer confidence, raising concerns about the broader economic landscape. During the first half of 2025, we observed a continuation of the softer demand we experienced toward the end of last year, especially in more discretionary categories such as our promotional merchandise. We also monitor various factors that could affect our customers' purchasing power, such as potential global trade disruptions and geopolitical events. These factors could lead to a downturn in the global economy, which may negatively impact our financial performance.
Liquidity
As of June 30, 2025, we held cash and cash equivalents of $26 million, along with an additional $390 million available for borrowing under our revolving credit facility. We anticipate that capital expenditures will be between $90 and $100 million for the full year, compared to $94 million in 2024, as we continue to build scale across our product categories and invest in innovation. Our capital allocation priorities remain focused on responsible growth investments, debt reduction, and returning capital to
25
shareholders through dividends. We expect to maintain our regular quarterly dividend payments. However, dividends are subject to approval by our board of directors each quarter and, therefore, may change.
We believe that net cash generated by operations, combined with cash and cash equivalents on hand and the availability under our credit facility, will be sufficient to support our operations over the next 12 months. This includes meeting our contractual obligations, debt service requirements, and addressing our long-term capital needs. Information regarding our longer term capital requirements can be found in the Cash Flows and Liquidity and Capital Resources sections. As of June 30, 2025, we were in compliance with our debt covenants.

In the second quarter and first half of 2025, total revenue declined compared to the same periods in 2024, partly due to business exits, which resulted in a $3 million reduction for the second quarter and a $9 million reduction for the first half of the year. Additionally, there was also a noticeable softness in demand for some of our promotional products, and the ongoing secular decline in order volumes for checks, business forms, and various business accessories further contributed to the revenue decline.
These decreases in revenue were partially offset by strategic price increases implemented in response to inflation, particularly within our Print and Merchant Services segments. Additionally, there was strong demand for our data-driven marketing services, especially among financial institutions, which contributed a $10 million increase in revenue for the second quarter and $28 million for the first half of the year.
We do not manage our business based on product versus service revenue. Instead, we analyze our revenue based on the product and service offerings shown under the caption "Note 13: Business Segment Information" in the Condensed Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements located in Part I, Item 1 of this report. Our revenue mix by business segment was as follows:

| (in thousands) | 2025 | 2024 | Change | 2025 | 2024 | Change | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Total cost of revenue | $ | 241,998 | $ | 249,026 | (2.8%) | $ | 497,422 | $ | 500,443 | (0.6%) | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Total cost of revenue as a percentage of total revenue | 46.4 | % | 46.3 | % | 0.1 pts. | 47.0 | % | 46.6 | % | 0.4 pts. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Cost of revenue primarily consists of raw materials for product manufacturing, shipping and handling costs, third-party costs for outsourced products and services, payroll and related expenses, information technology costs, depreciation and
26
amortization of assets used in production and in support of digital service offerings, residuals paid to independent sales organizations (ISOs), and related overhead.
In the second quarter and first half of 2025, total cost of revenue decreased compared to the same periods in 2024. This reduction was driven by a decline in revenue volume, attributed to soft demand for certain promotional products and the ongoing secular decline in checks, business forms, and various business accessories within our Print segment. Additionally, our cost management initiatives contributed to the decrease, and the impact of business exits reduced costs by approximately $2 million in the second quarter and $9 million in the first half of the year, including the impact of accelerated amortization expense in 2024. These reductions in total cost of revenue were partially offset by an increase in costs related to the revenue growth in data-driven marketing, as well as inflationary pressures affecting materials and delivery costs.
Despite the decreases, total cost of revenue as a percentage of total revenue increased for the second quarter and first half of 2025 compared to the same periods in 2024. This was due to the inflationary impacts and a shift in revenue towards our lower-margin growth businesses, which outweighed the benefits of our pricing and cost management actions and the accelerated amortization expense in the previous year.
Selling, General and Administrative (SG&A) Expense
| Quarter Ended June 30, | Six Months Ended June 30, | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| (in thousands) | 2025 | 2024 | Change | 2025 | 2024 | Change | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

In the second quarter and first half of 2025, SG&A expense decreased compared to the same periods in 2024. This decrease was largely driven by various cost management actions, including workforce adjustments across functional areas and the optimization of our marketing and sourcing strategies. Additionally, there was a reduction in amortization expense, stemming from accelerated amortization in 2024 related to a trade name intangible asset, as well as lower acquisition-related amortization expense in 2025. Bad debt expense decreased $4 million in the second quarter and $6 million in the first half of the year, primarily within our Print segment, and external commissions declined due to reduced Print revenue volumes. These reductions in SG&A expense were partially offset by an increase in medical costs within our Corporate operations, which is attributed to higher-cost claims that are expected to occur periodically as part of our self-insurance program.
SG&A expense as a percentage of total revenue decreased for the second quarter and first half of 2025 compared to the same periods in 2024. The combined effects of price increases, effective cost management actions, and the reductions in amortization and bad debt expense more than compensated for the rise in medical costs.

In the second quarter and first half of 2025, interest expense increased compared to the same periods in 2024. This increase was primarily due to the impact of higher interest rates, which outweighed the benefit of a reduction in our average debt outstanding. Based on the amount of variable-rate debt outstanding as of June 30, 2025, a one percentage point change in the weighted-average interest rate would result in a $3 million impact on interest expense for the remainder of 2025.

In the second quarter and first half of 2025, our effective income tax rate decreased compared to the same periods in 2024. The 2025 rate benefited from lower tax impacts for our foreign operations, non-deductible compensation, and share-based compensation. These benefits were partially offset by an increase in our effective state income tax rate.

In the second quarter and first half of 2025, net income and diluted EPS increased compared to the same periods in 2024, reflecting the factors noted above. Adjusted diluted EPS in the second quarter of 2025 increased $0.02 per share year-over-year, primarily due to the benefits of our pricing and cost management actions, growth in our data-driven marketing business, and a reduction in bad debt expense. These positive impacts were partially offset by the soft demand for certain promotional products and the ongoing secular declines within the Print segment, inflationary pressures on our cost structure, and increased medical costs.
For the first half of 2025, adjusted diluted EPS was unchanged as compared to the first half of 2024. The impact of business exits drove a $0.05 per share decrease year-over-year. Excluding this impact, adjusted diluted EPS would have shown an increase, driven by the same factors that impacted the second quarter year-over-year comparison. A reconciliation of net income to adjusted net income, as used in the calculation of adjusted diluted EPS, can be found in the following section.
Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Free cash flow – We define free cash flow as net cash provided by operating activities minus purchases of capital assets. We consider free cash flow to be an important indicator of cash available for servicing debt and for shareholders, after making
28
necessary capital investments to maintain or expand our asset base. One limitation of using the free cash flow measure is that not all of our free cash flow is available for discretionary spending. We may have mandatory debt payments and other cash requirements that must be deducted from our available cash. Despite this limitation, we believe that the measure of free cash flow offers an additional metric to consistently compare cash generated by operations. It also provides insight into the cash flow available to fund various items such as dividends, mandatory and discretionary debt reduction, acquisitions or other strategic investments, and share repurchases.
Net cash provided by operating activities reconciles to free cash flow as follows:

| Purchases of capital assets | (49,260) | (48,626) | ||||||||||||||||||
| Free cash flow | $ | 52,114 | $ | 17,596 | ||||||||||||||||
Net debt – Net debt is calculated by subtracting cash and cash equivalents from total debt. One limitation associated with using net debt is that by subtracting cash and cash equivalents, it may imply that management intends to use these funds to reduce outstanding debt. Additionally, net debt can suggest that our debt obligations are lower than what the most comparable GAAP measure indicates. Despite these limitations, management believes that net debt is a valuable metric for assessing our financial leverage and overall balance sheet health. It provides a measure of our debt burden by considering the funds available to offset our debt obligations.
Total debt reconciles to net debt as follows:

| Cash and cash equivalents | (26,000) | (34,399) | ||||||||||||||||||
| Net debt | $ | 1,444,648 | $ | 1,468,752 | ||||||||||||||||
Adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin – We believe that adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin are useful metrics for evaluating our operating performance. These measures eliminate the effect of interest expense, income taxes, the accounting effects of capital investments (i.e., depreciation and amortization), and certain other items that may vary for reasons unrelated to current period operating performance. Management uses these measures to assess the operating results and performance of the business, perform analytical comparisons, and identify strategies to improve performance. Additionally, we believe that an increasing adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin indicate an increase in the company's value.
It is important to note that we do not consider adjusted EBITDA to be a measure of cash flow, as it does not account for certain cash requirements such as interest, income taxes, debt service payments, or capital investments.

Adjusted diluted EPS – We believe that adjusted diluted EPS is a valuable metric for providing comparable information that assists in analyzing our current period operating performance and assessing our future operating performance. By excluding the impact of non-cash items or items that we believe are not indicative of current period operating performance, adjusted diluted EPS offers a useful view of our underlying business performance. Adjusted diluted EPS is one of the key financial performance metrics we use to evaluate the operating results and performance of the business, and it helps us identify strategies to improve performance. While it is reasonable to expect that one or more of the excluded items will occur in future periods, the amounts recognized may vary significantly.

(1) The tax effect of the pretax adjustments takes into account the tax treatment and related tax rate(s) applicable to each adjustment in the relevant tax jurisdiction(s). Generally, this results in a tax impact that approximates the U.S. effective tax rate for each adjustment. However, the tax impact of certain adjustments, such as share-based compensation expense and gains on sales of businesses, depends on whether the amounts are deductible in the respective tax jurisdictions and the applicable effective tax rate(s) in those jurisdictions.
(2) The total of weighted-average shares and potential common shares outstanding used in the calculation of adjusted diluted EPS may differ from the GAAP calculation due to differences in the amount of dilutive securities in each calculation.
| RESTRUCTURING AND INTEGRATION EXPENSE | ||
Restructuring and integration expense consists of costs related to initiatives aimed at driving earnings and cash flow growth, including costs related to the consolidation and migration of certain applications and processes. These costs consist primarily of consulting, project management services, internal labor, and other items such as facility closure and consolidation costs. Additionally, we have recorded employee severance costs across functional areas.
We are currently pursuing initiatives designed to support our growth strategy and to increase our efficiency, including several initiatives that we collectively refer to as our North Star program. The goal of this program is to enhance shareholder value by (1) accelerating our adjusted EBITDA growth, (2) increasing cash flow, (3) reducing debt, and (4) improving our leverage ratio. North Star is a comprehensive, multi-year plan that balances cost reduction and growth opportunities. On the cost reduction front, we focused on refining our organizational structure and transforming our infrastructure and operations. We have successfully completed the material elements of our organizational redesign, which included consolidating similar roles, reducing hierarchical layers, and expanding spans of control. We are also leveraging technology and process automation to digitize and streamline our operations. Additionally, we are scaling our operations by consolidating back-office functions and tapping into the global labor market. On the revenue growth side, our priorities include developing an integrated software channel in Merchant Services, expanding our Data Solutions business to cater to more industry verticals, and enhancing our marketing and sales capabilities. The positive impact of the North Star initiatives is evident in our results of operations. For example, SG&A expense
31
decreased 6.0% for the first half of 2025 compared to the first half of 2024, and free cash flow increased $35 million for the same period. Further information regarding restructuring and integration expense can be found under the caption "Note 8: Restructuring and Integration Expense" in the Condensed Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements located in Part I, Item 1 of this report.
All investments under the North Star program are required to meet our internal hurdle rate and provide a higher return compared to other uses of capital, such as debt repayment. The North Star program aims to achieve a $100 million run-rate improvement in free cash flow and an $80 million run-rate improvement in adjusted EBITDA by 2026. Through June 30, 2025, we incurred related restructuring and integration expense of approximately $108 million, and we expect to incur approximately $5 million in additional North Star restructuring and integration expense in 2025. These charges include professional services fees, employee severance, and other restructuring-related costs.
The majority of the employee reductions included in our restructuring and integration accruals as of June 30, 2025, along with the related severance payments, are expected to be completed by early 2026. As a result of these employee reductions, we expect to realize annual cost savings of approximately $5 million in cost of sales and $14 million in SG&A expense in 2025, in comparison to our 2024 results of operations. Note that these savings do not reflect all of our cost saving actions and they may be offset by increased labor and other costs, including inflationary impacts and investments in the business.
| SEGMENT RESULTS | ||
We operate four reportable business segments: Merchant Services, B2B Payments, Data Solutions, and Print. Our segments are generally organized by product and service type and reflect the way we manage the business.

Additionally, we added new clients in various other verticals, contributing to the revenue growth. It is important to note that the timing of campaigns within this business can lead to quarter-to-quarter volatility, making specific quarterly growth rates more challenging to predict.
Adjusted EBITDA for the second quarter and first half of 2025 increased compared to the same periods in 2024, primarily driven by the increase in data-driven marketing volume and continued realization of operating expense efficiencies, which included favorability from vendor rebates.

Total revenue for the second quarter and first half of 2025 decreased compared to the same periods in 2024, mainly due to a decline in revenue from promotional products, reflecting softer demand. Additionally, the ongoing secular decline in order volumes for checks, business forms, and various business accessories contributed to the decrease. These revenue declines were partially offset by pricing actions implemented in response to inflation.
Adjusted EBITDA for the second quarter and first half of 2025 decreased compared to the same periods in 2024, driven by the decline in revenue and inflationary pressures on materials and delivery costs. Our cost management actions partially offset these challenges, as we continued to emphasize operating expense discipline and overall efficiency within this segment. Additionally, bad debt expense declined year-over-year.
Adjusted EBITDA margin for the second quarter and first half of 2025 increased compared to the same periods in 2024, as the benefits from our pricing and cost management actions, a shift toward check revenues, and the lower bad debt expense contributed positively. These factors more than offset the inflationary cost pressures.

Net cash provided by operating activities increased $35 million for the first half of 2025 compared to the first half of 2024, reflecting several positive factors. Key contributors included the positive impacts of our pricing and cost management actions, a $15 million reduction in performance-based employee cash bonuses, and a reduction in restructuring and integration spend. Additionally, growth in data-driven marketing and positive working capital changes, particularly in prepaid expenses and other current assets, also contributed to the increase in net cash from operating activities. Also, interest payments decreased $8 million, as the timing of these payments changed in 2025 due to the refinancing of our debt in December 2024, which altered the schedule and structure of our financial obligations. These positive impacts were partially offset by softer demand for certain promotional products and the continuing secular declines within the Print segment, a $9 million increase in income tax payments related to the timing of federal tax payments, inflationary pressures on our cost structure, and the impact of business exits.

Net cash used by investing activities for the first half of 2025 was virtually the same as in the first half of 2024. Net cash used by financing activities for the same periods decreased by $72 million, driven by changes in settlement processing obligations during each period, including the impact of our exit from the payroll and human resources services business during 2024. Additionally, lower net payments on long-term debt in 2025 contributed to the decrease.

When evaluating our cash needs, we must consider our debt service requirements, lease obligations, other contractual commitments, and contingent liabilities. Detailed Information regarding the maturities of our long-term debt and our contingent liabilities can be found under the captions “Note 11: Debt” and "Note 12: Other Commitments and Contingencies," both of which appear in the Condensed Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements located in Part I, Item 1 of this report. Information regarding our lease obligations can be found under the caption "Note 14: Leases" in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements appearing in the 2024 Form 10-K, and information regarding our contractual obligations can be found in the MD&A section of the 2024 Form 10-K, under the section entitled Cash Flows and Liquidity. In the first quarter of 2025, we amended and extended an agreement for information technology services. This modification increased our contractual commitments by approximately $25 million, with the majority of the payments scheduled to be made during the years ending December 31, 2028 and 2029.
As of June 30, 2025, we held cash and cash equivalents of $26 million, with an additional $390 million available for borrowing under our revolving credit facility. We believe that net cash generated from our operations, combined with cash and cash equivalents on hand and the availability under our credit facility, will be sufficient to support our operations over the next 12 months. This includes meeting our contractual obligations, debt service requirements, and addressing our long-term capital needs. We expect to maintain our regular quarterly dividend payments. However, dividends are subject to approval by our board of directors each quarter and, therefore, may change.
| CAPITAL RESOURCES | ||
As of June 30, 2025, the principal amount of our debt obligations was $1.49 billion, compared to $1.52 billion as of December 31, 2024. Our capital structure for each period was as follows:

As of June 30, 2025, total commitments under our revolving credit facility were $400 million, with $390 million available for borrowing. Detailed information regarding our outstanding debt, including our debt service obligations and debt covenants, can be found under the caption “Note 11: Debt” in the Condensed Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements located in Part I, Item 1 of this report.
In October 2018, our board of directors authorized the repurchase of up to $500 million of our common stock. This authorization does not have an expiration date. We have not repurchased any shares under this authorization since the first quarter of 2020. As of June 30, 2025, $287 million remained available for repurchase. Information regarding changes in shareholders' equity can be found in the consolidated statements of shareholders' equity located in Part I, Item 1 of this report.

| CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES | ||
A description of our critical accounting estimates was provided in the MD&A section of the 2024 Form 10-K. During the first six months of 2025, there were no modifications in the assessment or determination of these estimates.
New accounting pronouncements – Information regarding new accounting pronouncements not yet adopted can be found under the caption “Note 2: New Accounting Pronouncements” in the Condensed Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements located in Part I, Item 1 of this report.
| ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK | ||
Interest rate risk – We are subject to fluctuations in interest rates primarily due to our borrowing activities, which are essential for maintaining our capital structure, ensuring liquidity, and funding our business operations and investments. We do not enter into financial instruments for speculative or trading purposes. The amount and nature of our outstanding debt is expected to change based on future business needs, market conditions, and other influencing factors.
Interest on amounts outstanding under our credit agreement and accounts receivable financing arrangement is payable at variable rates, as specified in the credit agreements. As of June 30, 2025, we also had $450 million of 8.125% senior secured notes and $475 million of 8.0% senior unsecured notes outstanding. When factoring in the related discount and debt issuance costs, the effective interest rate on these notes is 8.6% and 8.3%, respectively.
Our credit agreement matures on February 1, 2029, at which point any outstanding amounts under the revolving credit facility must be repaid. The term loan facility requires periodic principal payments through December 2028, with the remaining balance due on February 1, 2029. The senior unsecured notes are scheduled to mature in June 2029, while the senior secured notes will mature in September 2029. However, if any of the senior unsecured notes issued in 2021 remain outstanding as of February 1, 2029, the 2024 senior secured notes will also mature on that date. Quantitative information regarding the maturities of our long-term debt can be found under the caption "Note 11: Debt" in the Condensed Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements located in Part I, Item 1 of this report.
As of June 30, 2025, our total debt outstanding was as follows:
| (in thousands) | Carrying amount(1) | Fair value(2) | Interest rate | |||||||||||||||||
| Senior secured term loan facility | $ | 475,920 | $ | 480,167 | 6.9 | % | ||||||||||||||
| Senior unsecured notes | 469,979 | 458,043 | 8.0 | % | ||||||||||||||||
| Senior secured notes | 442,249 | 464,877 | 8.1 | % | ||||||||||||||||
| Securitization obligations | 80,000 | 80,000 | 5.9 | % | ||||||||||||||||
| Amounts drawn on revolving credit facility | 2,500 | 2,500 | 6.9 | % | ||||||||||||||||
| Total debt | $ | 1,470,648 | $ | 1,485,587 | 7.6 | % | ||||||||||||||
(1) The carrying amount has been reduced by unamortized discount and debt issuance costs of $17 million.
(2) For the amounts outstanding under our credit facility agreements, fair value approximates carrying value because the interest rates are variable and reflect current market rates. The fair value of the senior unsecured and senior secured notes is based on quoted prices in active markets for the identical liability when traded as an asset.
As of June 30, 2025, based on the amount of variable-rate debt outstanding, a one percentage point change in the weighted-average interest rate would result in a $3 million change in interest expense for the remainder of 2025.
Foreign currency exchange rate risk – We are subject to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. Our investments in, and loans and advances to, foreign subsidiaries and branches, along with the operations of these entities, are denominated in foreign currencies, primarily Canadian dollars. The impact of exchange rate changes on our earnings and cash flows is expected to be minimal, given that our foreign operations constitute a relatively small portion of our overall business. At this time, we have not engaged in hedging activities to mitigate the risks associated with changes in foreign currency exchange rates.

| ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES | ||
(a) Disclosure Controls and Procedures – As of the end of the period covered by this report, June 30, 2025 (the "Evaluation Date"), we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act")). Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of the Evaluation Date, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is (i) recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in applicable rules and forms, and (ii) accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
(b) Internal Control Over Financial Reporting – There were no material changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with our evaluation during the quarter ended June 30, 2025 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
PART II – OTHER INFORMATION
| ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS | ||
We record provisions for identified claims or lawsuits when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the loss amount can be reasonably estimated. Claims and lawsuits are reviewed on a quarterly basis, and provisions are taken or adjusted to reflect the current status of each matter. We believe that the reserves recorded in our consolidated financial statements are adequate, considering the probable and estimable outcomes. The recorded liabilities were not material to our financial position, results of operations, or liquidity, and we do not believe that any of the currently identified claims or litigation will have a material impact on our financial position, results of operations, or liquidity upon resolution. However, litigation is subject to inherent uncertainties, and unfavorable rulings could occur. Should an unfavorable ruling occur, it may have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations, or liquidity in the period the ruling is made or in future periods.
| ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS | ||
The risk factors relevant to our business are detailed in Part I, Item 1A of our 2024 Form 10-K. Since the filing of the 2024 Form 10-K, there have been no significant changes to these risk factors.
| ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS | ||
In October 2018, our board of directors authorized the repurchase of up to $500 million of our common stock. This authorization has no expiration date.
