EURONET WORLDWIDE, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED
CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
SEPTEMBER 30, 2001 AND 2000
NOTE 1 - FINANCIAL POSITION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of Euronet
Worldwide, Inc. and subsidiaries (collectively, "Euronet" or the "Company")(formerly Euronet Services Inc.), have
been prepared from the records of the Company, pursuant to the rules and
regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. In the opinion of
management, such unaudited consolidated financial statements include all
adjustments (consisting only of normal, recurring accruals) necessary to present
fairly the financial position of the Company at September 30,March 31, 2002 and December 31,
2001, the results of its operations for the three-month periods ended March 31,
2002 and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2001, and 2000 and cash flows for the nine-monththree-month periods ended September 30, 2001March 31, 2002
and 2000.2001.
The unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction
with the audited consolidated financial statements of Euronet Worldwide, IncInc.
and subsidiaries for the year ended December 31, 2000,2001, including the notes
thereto, set forth in the Company's Form 10-K.
The results of operations for the three-month and nine-month periodsperiod ended September 30, 2001March 31, 2002 are
not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.
The Company generated an operating lossincome from continuing operations of $6.2$0.1
million for the ninethree months ended September 30, 2001March 31, 2002. This is primarily due to
the significant costs associated with
the expansion of its ATM networkcontinued increases in revenue and investment support and research and
development in its software.controlled costs. In addition, the Company
generated negativepositive cash flows from operations of $0.3$2.0 million for the ninethree
months ended September 30,
2001,March 31, 2002, as a result of these same factors. Based on the
Company's current business plan and financial projections, the Company expects
to reduceincrease operating lossesincome and net cash used ingenerated from operating activities
during the remainder of 2001.2002. In the Processing Services Segment, the Company
anticipates that increased transaction levels in its ATM network will result in
additional revenues without a corresponding increase in expenses. In addition,
the Company expects to further expand its ATM outsourcing services and offer new
value-added services, which will provide continued revenue growth without
significantly increasing direct operating expenses or capital investments. In
the Software Solutions Segment, the Company expects to continue its strategic
repositioning of its software business from direct software sales to
software-only customers to more integrated solutions combining the strengths of
the Company's electronic financial transaction network system with its software
development strengths.
The Company has a $4.0 million credit facility under an unsecured revolving
credit agreement (see Note 5). As of September 30, 2001,believes that cash and cash equivalents at March 31, 2002 will
provide the Company had drawn
$2.0 million against such credit agreement.with sufficient cash resources going forward. In addition,
the Company holds repurchased notes payable with a face value of DEM 139.7euro 79.1
million ($65.068.9 million) and a fair value estimated at September 30, 2001March 31, 2002 of $52.0$62.0
million. The Company believes
that cash and cash equivalents at September 30, 2001, and the revolving credit
agreement described above, will provide the Company with sufficient cash
resources until it achieves positive cash flow. The Company nevertheless has a policy of assessing opportunities for
additional debt and equity financing as they arise, and will pursue any such
opportunities if the Company considers that they may contribute to fulfilling
its financial and strategic business objectives.
Based on the above, management is confident that the Company will be able to
continue as a going concern. Accordingly, these consolidated financial
statements have been prepared on a going concern basis which contemplates the
continuation and expansion of trading activities as well as the realization of
assets and liquidation of liabilities in the ordinary course of business.
NOTE 2 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND RECENTLY ADOPTED ACCOUNTING
STANDARDS
For a description of the accounting policies of the Company, see Note 3 to the
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended December 31, 2001.
On January 1, 2002, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 141, Business Combinations (SFAS 141). The adoption of SFAS 141
had no impact to the financial statements.
On January 1, 2002, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets (SFAS 142). Under SFAS
142 goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives are no longer amortized
but are reviewed annually (or more frequently if impairment indicators arise)
for impairment. Separable intangible assets that are not deemed to have
indefinite lives will continue to be amortized over their
5
useful lives. The amortization and non-amortization provisions of SFAS 142 apply
upon issuance to all goodwill and intangible assets acquired after June 30,
2001. With respect to goodwill and intangible assets acquired prior to July 1,
2001, the Company adopted SFAS 142 effective January 1, 2002. Under SFAS 142,
for the interim period we are required to segregate and specifically identify
intangible assets into goodwill and other intangible assets. We have performed
an evaluation and determined that all intangible assets recorded in our
consolidated financial statements comprise only goodwill. The application of the
provisions of SFAS 142 resulted in a reduction of goodwill amortization expense
of $0.1 million in the first quarter of 2002. At March 31, 2002, the Company had
goodwill, net of accumulated amortization, of $1.5 million. The Company does not
anticipate that an impairment charge, if any, arising from our goodwill
assessment in 2002 will be significant.
On January 1, 2002, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 143, Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations (SFAS 143). The
adoption of SFAS 143 had no impact to the financial statements.
Effective January 1, 2002, the Company adopted SFAS No. 144, Accounting for the
Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets. SFAS 144 establishes accounting and
reporting standards for the impairment and disposal of long-lived assets and
discontinued operations. The application of this statement resulted in the
classification and separate financial statements presentation of certain
entities as discontinued operations, which are not included in continuing
operations.
On January 4, 2002, the Company sold substantially all of the assets of the
United States ATM processing business to ALLTEL in an Asset Purchase Agreement.
The United States processing business was owned by the Company's subsidiary EFT
Network Services, LLC and was commonly known as "DASH" or the "DASH network".
DASH was accounted for as a discontinued operation in accordance with SFAS 144
and, accordingly, amounts in the financial statements and related notes for all
periods shown reflect discontinued operations accounting. Related assets and
liabilities have been segregated and continue to be recorded in the financial
statements at carrying value as at December 31, 2001 (see Note 8). Additionally,
the Company has committed, within 2002, to sell substantially all of the
non-current assets and capital lease obligations of its processing business in
France. Accordingly, the France business also qualifies for discontinued
operations accounting. Non-current assets and capital lease obligations related
to the France business have been segregated and continue to be recorded in the
financial statements at carrying value.
There have been no further significant additions to or changes in accounting
policies of the Company since December 31, 2000. For a description of these policies, see
Note 3 to the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended
December 31, 2000. The Company adopted the provisions of SFAS No. 133 on 1
January 2001 and this had no impact on the Company's consolidated financial
5
statements as the Company does not have any derivative financial instruments.
Future changes in the fair value for any remaining trading securities will be
recorded through earnings. Changes in fair value of available for sale
securities will be recorded in other comprehensive income.2001.
NOTE 3 - EARNINGSEARNINGS/(LOSS) PER SHARE - BASIC Net lossAND DILUTED
Basic earnings per share has been computed by dividing net lossincome/(loss) by
the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. TheFor the three months
ending March 31, 2002, dilutive earnings per share reflects the potential
dilution that could occur if dilutive stock options and warrants were exercised
using the treasury stock method where applicable. For the three months ending
March 31, 2001, the effect of potential common stock (options and warrants outstanding) is antidilutive. Accordingly dilutedanti-dilutive because a
net loss exists. Accordingly, dilutive earnings per share for the three months
ending March 31, 2001 does not assume the exercise of outstanding stock
options and warrants.
For the three months ending March 31, 2002, weighted average shares (undiluted)
were 22,476,888. For the three months ending March 31, 2002, fully diluted
weighted average shares were 26,145,733.
For the three months ending March 31, 2001, weighted average shares (undiluted)
were 17,915,375. For the three months ending March 31, 2001, weighted average
shares including the dilutive effect of dilutive stock options and warrants
would have been 19,737,027. However no fully diluted computations have been
performed for reasons stated above.
NOTE 4 - BUSINESS SEGMENT INFORMATION
Euronet and its subsidiaries operate in two business segments: (1) a segment
that provides an independent shared ATM network and other electronic payment
processing services to banks, retail and financial institutions (the "Processing
Services Segment"); and (2) a segment that produces application software and
solutions for payment and transaction delivery systems (the "Software Solutions
Segment"). These business segments are supported by a corporate service segment,
which provides corporate and other administrative services which are not
directly identifiable with the two business segments, (the "Corporate Services
Segment"). The accounting policies of each segment are the same as those
described in the summary of significant accounting policies. The Company
evaluates performance based on profit or loss from operations before income
taxes not including nonrecurring gains and losses. Prior period segment
information has been restated to conform to the current period's presentation.
6
Prior to June 10, 2001, The Processing Services Segment was referred to in previous
filings of the Company as the "Network Services Segment." This name change has
been made to conform to current industry terminology.
The Company divided the Processing Services Segment into three sub-segments: the
"Central European Sub-segment" (including Hungary, Poland, the Czech Republic,
Croatia, Greece and Romania), the "Western European Sub-segment" (including
Germany France, and the United Kingdom) and the "Other operationsOperations Sub-segment"
(including the United StatesIndonesia, Egypt and unallocated processing center costs).
The results from operations from France and DASH have been removed from
continuing operations for all reported periods in accordance with SFAS 144.
France was in previous filings reported under the Western European Sub-Segment
and DASH was previously reported under the Other Operations Sub-segment.
The following tables present the segment results of the Company's operations for
the three-monththree months ended March 31, 2002 and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2001 and September
30, 2000.March 31, 2001.

NOTE 5 - CREDIT FACILITY
On June 28, 2000 the Company entered into an unsecured revolving credit
agreement (the "Credit Agreement") providing a facility of up to $4.0 million
from three shareholders as follows: DST Systems, Inc. in the amount of
$2.4 million; Hungarian-American Enterprise Fund in the amount of $1.0 million;
and Michael J. Brown, the CEO and a Director of the Company, in the amount of
$0.6 million. The facility was originally available to be drawn upon until
December 28, 2000, and repayment of any draws was due June 28, 2001. The Credit
Agreement was amended and renewed for six monthsix-month periods on December 28, 2000,
and
June 28, 2001 and November 27, 2001 and, as a result of such amendments, any
amounts drawn on the facility must nowwere to be repaid by June 28, 2002.
A "commitment"commitment fee was paid for the initial facility of 100,000 warrants issued
pro-rata to the lenders with a warrant strike price set at the average share
price, as quoted on NASDAQNasdaq for the 10 trading days prior to the warrant issue date,
less 10 percent. An additional 100,000, 50,000 and 50,000 warrants, on the same
terms, were issued on January 2, 2001, and on June 28, 2001, and November 27, 2001,
respectively, for the subsequent extensions of the facility. The exercise price
for Michael J. Brown was originally the same as for the other lenders. It was
revised by an amendment to the Credit Agreement on January 27, 2002 to be no
less than the full trading price of our stock on Nasdaq as of the date of the
agreement providing for grant of the warrants, with the amount of the discount
that would have resulted from the original terms of the Credit Agreement to be
paid to Mr. Brown in cash. Warrants arewere issuable on similar terms and
conditions for each draw on the facility at the rate of 80,000 warrants for each
$1.0 million of funds drawn. As of September 30,On May 29, 2001, the Company has drawndrew $2.0 million and
issued 160,000 warrants in respect of such draw.
The exercise prices for the warrants for DST Systems and Hungarian-American
Enterprise Fund were $7.00 per share for the 100,000 warrants issued as of
June 28, 2000, $4.12 per share for the 100,000 warrants issued as of
December 29, 2000, $5.92 per share for the 160,000 warrants issued as of May 29,
2001 and $6.70 per share for the 100,000 warrants issued as of June 28, 2001.
The exercise prices for the warrants for Michael J. Brown were $8.25 per share
for the 100,000 warrants issued as of June 28, 2000, $4.12 per share for the
100,000 warrants issued as of December 29, 2000, $7.05 per share for the 160,000
warrants issued as of May 29, 2001 and $9.00 per share for the 100,000 warrants
issued as of June 28, 2001.
Amounts outstanding under the facility accrueaccrued interest at 10 percent per annum,
payable quarterly. RepaymentThe Credit Agreement was not renewed in December 2001 and was
repaid in full on March 21, 2002.
In 2001, two participants in the Credit Agreement, in three separate
transactions, elected to exercise a total of the principal
is due on June 28, 2002.361,000 warrants for an equal
number of shares. The remaining $2.0 million under the agreement is
available to be drawn until December 28, 2001.total amount of cash received from these transactions was
$2.1 million. In May of 2002, additional warrants were exercised as more fully

NOTE 6 - EXTINGUISHMENT OF DEBT
During February 2001, the three months endingCompany exchanged 3,000 units (principal amount of
euro 1.5 million) of its 12 3/8% senior discount notes (the "Senior Discount
Notes") and 9,000 warrants for 95,000 shares of its common stock, par value
$0.02 per share. This exchange has been accounted for as an extinguishment of
debt with a resulting $0.4 million (net of applicable income taxes of $0.1
million) recognized as an extraordinary gain on such extinguishment. The
extinguishment gain (pre-tax) represents the difference between the allocated
carrying value of the debt and any related warrants extinguished ($1.1 million)
and the fair market value of the common stock issued ($0.6 million), offset by
the write-off of the allocated unamortized deferred financing costs. This
transaction was exempt from registration in accordance with the U.S. Securities
Act of 1933 (the "Act").
During March 31, 2001, in a single transaction, the Company exchanged 8,750 Senior Discount Notes (principal
face amount of DEM 8.75euro 4.5 million) of its Senior Discount Notes for two new Senior
discount notes having an aggregate face amount of $2.9US $3.0 million (the "New
Notes"). The interest, repayment and other terms of the New Notes are identical
to those of the Senior Discount Notes for which they were exchanged, except that
(i) the principal amount was reduced as indicated in the previous sentence, (ii)
the Company has the right to prepay the New Notes at any time at its option by
paying the "Accreted Value" of the Notes, and (iii) the new notes are governed
by a new Note Purchase Agreement rather than the indenture under which the
Senior Discount Notes were issued and the New Notes therefore are not covered by
any of the provisions of such indenture relating to action by the trustee,
voting or maintenance of listing on a stock exchange. This exchange has been
accounted for as an extinguishment of debt and issuance of new debt with a
resulting $0.4$0.5 million (net of applicable income taxes of $0.3$0.2 million)
recognized as an extraordinary gain on
8
such extinguishment. The extinguishment
gain (pre-tax) represents the difference between the allocated carrying value of
the debt extinguished ($3.3 million) and the fair market value of the New Notes
issued ($2.5 million), offset by the write-off of the allocated unamortized
deferred financing costs ($0.1 million). This transaction was exempt from
registration in accordance with Section 3(a)9
of the Act.
During the six months ending June 30, 2001, in eight separate transactions, the
Company exchanged 48,600 units (principal amount of DEM 48.6 million) of its
Senior Discount Notes and 145,800 warrants for 1,691,000 shares of its common
stock, par value $0.02 per share. This exchange has been accounted for as an
extinguishment of debt with a resulting $7.0 million (net of applicable income
taxes of $1.0 million) recognized as an extraordinary gain on such
extinguishment. The extinguishment gain (pre-tax) represents the difference
between the allocated carrying value of the debt and any related warrants
extinguished ($19.0 million) and the fair market value of the common stock
issued ($10.5 million), offset by the write-off of the allocated unamortized
deferred financing costs ($0.5 million). These transactions were exempt from
registration in accordance with Section 3(a)9 of the Act.
During the three months ending September 30, 2001, in five separate
transactions, the Company exchanged 34,000 units (principal amount of DEM 34.0
million) of its Senior Discount Notes and 102,000 warrants for 1,157,000 shares
of its common stock, par value $0.02 per share. This exchange has been accounted
for as an extinguishment of debt with a resulting $2.1 million (inclusive of an
applicable income tax benefit of $1.0 million) recognized as an extraordinary
gain on such extinguishment. The extinguishment gain (pre-tax) represents the
difference between the allocated carrying value of the debt and any related
warrants extinguished ($13.6 million) and the fair market value of the common
stock issued ($12.2 million), offset by the write-off of the allocated
unamortized deferred financing costs ($0.3 million). These transactions were
exempt from registration in accordance with Section 3(a)9 of the Act.
The Senior Discount Notes that were acquired by the Company in the above
exchanges have not been retired.
The Company will consider additional
repurchasesThese two transactions result in a combined extraordinary gain of its$0.9 million
(net of applicable taxes of $0.3 million) for the quarter ended March 31, 2001.
For the quarter ending March 31, 2002, we have made no further acquisitions of
these Senior Discount Notes if opportunities ariseNotes.
For a description of additional debt extinguishments during 2001, see Note 3 to
complete such
transactions on favorable terms.
NOTE 7 - ASSET WRITE-DOWN
During the third quarter of 2000, the Company reduced the carrying value of
certain assets in accordance with SFAS No. 121, "AccountingConsolidated Financial Statements for the Impairment
of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed of". The asset
write-downs totaled $12.0 million, of which $11.2 million related to goodwill
and other identifiable intangible assets associated with the Company's
acquisition of Euronet USA formerly Arkansas Systems, Inc. ("Euronet USA") inyear ended December 1998. The remaining $0.8 million write- down related to the Company's
ATM hardware inventory acquired associated with the Company's acquisition of the
SBK ATM network in Germany and the Budapest Bank ATM network in Hungary.
As a result of the Company's inability to achieve operating improvements,
including software licence and service orders for Euronet USA's traditional core
product (ITM) and cost reductions, the Software Solutions Segment continued
operating at a loss through the first three quarters of 2000. The Company
calculated the expected cash flows of the Company's Software Solutions Segment,
which identified an impairment of its long-lived assets. Accordingly, in the
third quarter of 2000, the Company recorded an impairment charge based on the
present value of expected cash flows of $11.2 million for the write-down of
goodwill and other identifiable intangible assets recorded upon the acquisition
of Euronet USA. The Company considers the rapidly changing business environment
surrounding electronic transaction payment systems software to be a primary
indicator of any potential impairment of goodwill and other identifiable
intangible assets related to the Company's Software Solutions Segment.
In order to determine the extent of the asset impairment and the related asset
write-down, the Company estimated the discounted cash flows of the Software
Solutions Segment products and services in determining the fair value of the
goodwill and related identifiable intangible assets. The Company's estimate was
based on historical results which have shown recurring operating losses since
acquisition, current projections, and internal earnings targets, net of
applicable taxes. The Company's discounted cash flow analysis indicated that the
carrying value of intangible assets related to Euronet USA should be reduced to
zero as of September 30, 2000. The net book value of the intangible assets prior
to the write down was $11.2 million.
The Company periodically reviews the recorded values of its long-lived assets to
determine if future cash flows to be derived from these assets will be
sufficient to recover the remaining recorded asset values. A portion of
9
the ATM hardware assets acquired with the Budapest Bank and Service Bank ATM
network purchases were deemed technologically inferior relative to the Company's
standards. Specifically, these assets were not technologically advanced enough
to support the entire current and future set of transactions the Company
typically offers to users of its ATM network. As a result of this analysis, the
Company recorded a non-cash charge of $0.8 million related to a reduction in the
carrying value of ATM hardware, adjusting to its net realizable value.31, 2001.
NOTE 87 - RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
In January 2001, the Company entered into a Credit Facility Loan Agreement under
which it borrowed an aggregate of $0.5 million from Michael J. Brown, the CEO
and a Director of the Company, in order to fund transactions on its Czech
Republic ATM network. Amounts advanced under this loan agreement mature six
months from the date an advance is made, but were extended for a second six
month period. The loans arewere unsecured. Amounts advanced bearbore interest of 10%
per annum. In January 2002, the loan of $0.5 million and related interest was
paid in full.
In 2000, Michael J. Brown, the CEO and a Director of the Company, pledged
approximately $4.0 million of marketable securities (not including any common
stock of the Company) that he owns in order to obtain the release to the Company
of cash collateral in the amount of $4.8 million held by a bank providing cash
to the Company's ATM network in Hungary. No consideration iswas payable for
providing this security. On March 14, 2002, a letter of credit was obtained by
the Company in the amount of $5.0 million which replaced the above security
pledge by Michael J. Brown and a related $0.8 million letter of credit supported
by a certificate of deposit that had been obtained for the same purpose.
For the three months ended March 31, 2002, the Company recorded $0.1 million in
revenue related to CashNet, a 10 % owned affiliate, with respect to a data
processing and technical services agreement.
NOTE 8 - DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS
Sale of US Processing Services Business
On January 4, 2002, the Company concluded an Asset Purchase Agreement with
ALLTEL Information Services, Inc. ("AIS"), a wholly owned subsidiary of ALLTEL
Corporation, whereby EFT Network Services, LLC (also
10
known as DASH) sold substantially all of its assets to AIS for $6.8 million, in
cash. Of this amount, $0.7 million is being held in escrow under the terms of a
separate escrow agreement to provide for the payment of any damages that might
arise from any breach of the representations and warranties contained in the
Asset Purchase Agreement and certain post-closing adjustments. DASH is a
wholly-owned subsidiary of Euronet USA Inc, which is a wholly-owned subsidiary
of Euronet Worldwide, Inc. DASH, Euronet USA and AIS are parties to the Asset
Purchase Agreement. The Company recorded a pre-tax gain of approximately $4.8
million related to this transaction. As discussed in Note 9, the Company
entered into a separate Software License Agreement with AIS on January 4, 2002.
Assets/Liabilities From Discontinued Operations
Throughout 2001, we reduced the number of ATMs we have in France in response to
new stringent safety requirements for off branch ATMs. The new safety
requirements were established in response to pressure from the French unions
representing cash delivery employees and will come fully into effect on
January 1, 2003. The requirements make it uneconomical to operate off branch
ATMs in France and we therefore are holding our off branch network of ATMs in
France for sale by January 1, 2003. The losses from operations in France
reported under discontinued operations for the three months ended March 31, 2002
were $0.2 million as compared to $0.7 million for the three months ended
March 31, 2001.
As a result of the above, the results from operations from France and DASH have
been removed from continuing operations for all reported periods in accordance
with SFAS 144. France was previously reported under the Western European
Sub-segment and DASH was previously reported under the Other Operations
Sub-segment. The following pro-forma financial statements show balance sheet

offers itswe offer our solutions in more than 60 countries around the
world. We changed our name from Euronet and its subsidiariesServices Inc. to Euronet Worldwide, Inc.
in August 2001.
We currently operate in two business segments: (1) a segment
providingthe "Processing Services Segment"
provides secure processing of electronic financial transactions, (the "Processing Servicesand the
"Software Solutions Segment"); and (2) a segment producing produces application software for the processing of
secure electronic financial transactions. The Processing Services Segment
comprises our proprietary ATM network, outsourced management of ATMs for banks,
and various new processing services that we provide for banks and mobile phone
companies through our ATM network and managed ATMs, such as mobile phone
recharge services. Our Software Solutions Segment provides transaction
processing software solutions to banks that permit them to operate ATMs and
point-of-sale terminals and process financial transactions (the "Software Solutions Segment").
In addition,from those devices
and the Company'sinternet.
Our management divides the Processing Services Segment into three geographic
sub-segments:
"Centralo Central European Sub-segment"Sub-segment (including Hungary, Poland, the Czech
Republic, Croatia, Greece and Romania),
"Westerno Western European Sub-
segment"Sub-segment (including Germany France and the United
Kingdom), and
"Othero Other Operations Sub-segment"Sub-segment (including the United StatesIndonesia, Egypt and
unallocated processing center costs).
TheseWe also operate a "Corporate Services Segment" that provides these two business
segments and their sub-segments, are supported by
a corporate service segment, which provideswith corporate and other administrative services that are not directly
identifiable with the two business segments (the
"Corporate Services Segment").them. The accounting policies of each segment are the same as
those described in the summary of significant accounting policies. The
Company evaluatesWe evaluate
performance based on profit or loss from continuing operations before income
taxes not including nonrecurring gains and losses.
BeginningWe intend to close our ATM processing business in 2000,France, which we commonly
refer to simply as "France". Consequently, we have reclassified the Company began offeringoperational
results for France for all reported periods to discontinued operations and have
reported the relevant assets and liabilities from discontinued operations in
accordance with SFAS 144.
On January 4, 2002, we sold substantially all of the assets of our ATM
processing business in the United States, known as DASH, to ALLTEL Information
Services, Inc. for $6.8 million in cash. ALLTEL Information Services, Inc. is a
new setwholly-owned subsidiary of solutionsALLTEL Corporation. $0.7 million of the proceeds is
being held in escrow under the terms of a separate escrow agreement to mobile
phone companiescover
certain post-closing adjustments and banks, including solutions facilitatingany damages that might arise from breach of
the representations and warranties contained in the purchase agreement with
ALLTEL. We recorded a pre-tax gain of prepaid mobile phone time ("Prepaid Recharge Solutions")approximately $4.8 million related to this
transaction.
In previous filings, we reported France under the Western European Sub-segment
and wireless banking
("Wireless Banking Solutions").DASH under the Other Operations Sub-segment. All operating amounts, ATM
counts, transaction numbers and statistics reported in this filing exclude
France and DASH. The Prepaid Recharge Solutions are offered to
mobile phone companies and involve processing transactions initiated by mobile
phone usersdecrease of our ATMs from 2,999 as reported in our annual
report on ATMs (including in particular ATMs owned or operated by the
Company), POS terminals, PCs connected to the internet, the mobile phones
themselves or other wireless devices. These transactions are routed to Euronet's
processing centers, then to card issuers to obtain authorization of a card
transaction, and finally to the mobile phone company to open up the prepaid
phone time purchased on the mobile phone user's account. The Wireless Banking
Solutions are sold to banks, permitting individuals to access their bank account
information to initiate transactions from wireless devices and banks to send
messages regarding events occurring on their customers' accounts to the
customers' mobile phones. Revenues from these solutions were not significantForm 10-K for the three month and nine month periodsyear ended September 30,December 31, 2001 but are
increasing as contracts are signed with more mobile phone companies. Based on
indications of interest from the market, the Company believesto 2,548 at March 31,

Revenues
Total segment revenues increased by $2.420% or $2.0 million or 25% to $12.0$12.2 million for the
three months ended September 30, 2001March 31, 2002 from $9.6$10.2 million for the three months ended
September 30, 2000, and by $7.8 million or 29% to $34.6 million for the
nine months ended September 30, 2001 from $26.8 million for the nine months
ended September 30, 2000.March 31, 2001. The increase in revenues is due primarily to the significant
increase in transaction volumevolumes and an increase in the number of ATMs that we
operated by the Company during these periods. In total, the Company had 2,571We installed 2,112 ATMs installed as of September 30, 2000,March 31, 2001 and
processed 13.812.6 million transactions for the three months ended September 30,
2000 and 37.7 million transactions for the nine months ended September 30, 2000.March 31, 2001.
As of September 30, 2001, the Company'sMarch 31, 2002, we increased our ATM network increased by 376436 ATMs, or 14.6%21%, to a
total of 2,9472,548 ATMs. We own 85% of this total number of ATMs, of which 68% are owned by the Companywhile banks and 32%

transaction fee for our owned ATMs. This generates both fixed and variable
revenue components. As a result, transactions on these machines can increase

Revenues for the Central European Sub-segment totalledincreased 11% or $0.6 million to
$6.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2001 as compared to $4.9March 31, 2002 from $5.5 million for the
three months ended September 30, 2000 and $17.5 million for the nine months ended
September 30, 2001 as compared to $13.5 million for the nine months ended
September 30, 2000.March 31, 2001. The increase in revenues is largely the
result of an increase in the number of ATMs operated by the Companyus from 1,3591,405 at September
30, 2000March
31, 2001 to 1,4821,526 at September 30, 2001,March 31, 2002, and increased transaction volumes. Our
ability to continue to increase revenues at this rate depends on our ability to
sign new contracts to operate more ATMs for banks and financial institutions.
Revenues for the Western European Sub-segment totalled $5.3increased 19% or $0.9 million to
$5.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2001 as compared to $4.2March 31, 2002 from $4.7 million for the
three months ended September 30, 2000 and $15.4 million for the nine months ended
September 30, 2001 as compared to $11.9 million for the nine months ended
September 30, 2000.March 31, 2001. The increase in revenues is largely the
result of an increase in the number of ATMs operated by the Companywe operate in this region from 763707
at September 30,
2000March 31, 2001 to 938978 at September 30, 2001,March 31, 2002, and increased transaction volumes.
During this period we also increased transaction fees in certain markets.
Of the net 271 ATMs added to the network in Western Europe, 258 ATMs were
located in the United Kingdom. Our increase in roll-out of ATMs in the United
Kingdom during 2001 was based on the ability to charge a transaction fee
directly to the person using the ATMs in this market. The continuance of an
aggressive roll-out of ATMs in 2002 in the United Kingdom depends on our ability
to find additional sites for ATMs that are capable of highly profitable
transaction levels. Some machines we have installed recently in the United
Kingdom had transaction levels that are lower than those of machines installed
earlier. This is partially due to lower transaction levels at ATM machines at
post office sites and at sites at where cash is replenished by merchants.
Although these ATMs are profitable, they are generating returns that are lower
than we expected. We continue to examine a number of responses to this
situation, including using lower cost machines at these sites, reducing our
roll-out of new
14
machines and relocating machines with low transaction volumes in the United
Kingdom. A decision to reduce our rate of roll-out of ATMs or the continuing
weakness of performance of certain ATMs could result in a decrease in growth in
our revenues and operating profits.
Revenues for the Other ATM Operations Sub-segment were $0.6 million for the
three months ended September 30, 2001 as compared to $0.5 million for the three
months ended September 30, 2000 and $1.7 million for the nine months ended
September 30, 2001March 31, 2002 as compared to $1.4 million for the nine months ended
September 30, 2000. The revenues from this segment were earned by EFT Network
Services, LLC. a subsidiary of Euronet USA.
Of total segment revenuenil for the three months ended September 30, 2001,March
31, 2001. Revenues from this segment are generated in Egypt and Indonesia, where
we are just beginning operations. We previously reported our revenue from the
DASH network under this segment but we sold this network in January 2002 (see
Note 8 to the unaudited consolidated financial statements). Therefore, no
further revenues will be realized in continuing operations from the DASH
business for the year 2002.
Of total segment revenue, approximately 85%90% is attributable to thosefrom ATMs owned by the Company. Forwe own for the three
months ended September 30, 2000, approximately 86% was attributable to
Company owned ATMs.March 31, 2002 and 91% for the three months ended March 31, 2001.
Of total transactions processed, approximately 70%86% is attributable to those ATMs owned by the Companywe
own for the three months ended September 30, 2001March 31, 2002 and 77%88% for the three months ended
September 30, 2000. In
addition, of total segment revenue approximately 86%March 31, 2001. We believe the shift from a largely proprietary, Euronet-owned
ATM network to a more balanced mix between proprietary ATMs and customer-owned
ATMs is attributable to those
ATMs owned by the Companya positive development and will provide higher marginal returns on
investments.
We charge fees for the nine months ended September 30, 2001 and 86%
for the nine months ended September 30, 2000. Of total transactions processed,
approximately 74% is attributable to those ATMs owned by the Company for the
nine months ended September 30, 2001 and 77% for the nine months ended September
30, 2000.
Transaction fees charged by the Company vary for the three types of ATM transactions that are currently processed
on the Company'sour ATMs:
casho Cash withdrawals,
balanceo Balance inquiries, and
transactionso Transactions not completed because the relevant Card Issuercard issuer does not

Operating Expenses
Total segment operating expenses increased 9%, or $0.9 million to $11.4 million
for the three months ended September 30, 2001March 31, 2002 from $10.5 million for the three
months ended September
30, 2000 andMarch 31, 2001. The increase is primarily due to $34.4 million forincreased salaries
to support our operational growth during the nine months ended September 30, 2001 from
$32.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2000. The increases are
due primarily to reallocations of cost from the companies corporate segment to
the Other Operations Sub-segment and costs associated with the installation of
additional ATMs and expansion of the Company's operations.
The operatingperiod.
Operating expenses for the Central European Sub-segment totalled $5.8decreased 2% or $0.1

million for the three months ended September 30, 2000March 31, 2001. The decrease in operating
expenses is a result of lower direct operating expenses of $0.3 million offset
by increased salary expenses of $0.2 million. We increased the number of ATMs
that we operate in this region from 1,405 at March 31, 2001 to 1,526 at March
31, 2002, and $17.3 million for the
nine months ended September 30, 2001 as compared to $15.7 million for the nine
months ended September 30, 2000. The increases are due primarily to costs
associated with the installationincreased transaction volumes. Operating expenses decreased in
spite of additionalincreasing ATMs and expansion of the
Company's operations during the periods in this Sub-segment.
The operatingtransactions due to operational efficiencies and
other expense reductions.
Operating expenses for the Western European Sub-segment totalled $5.4increased 19% or $0.8

million for the three months ended September 30, 2000,March 31, 2001. The increase in operating
expenses was largely the result of an increase in the number of ATMs that we
operated over this period, increased direct operating costs and $14.9 million forstaff increases
in our expanding UK market. We increased the nine months ended September 30, 2001 as compared to $14.7 million for the nine
months ended September 30, 2000. The increases are due primarily to costs
associated with the installationnumber of additional ATMs and expansion of the
Company's operations during the periodsthat we operate in
this Sub-segment.

The operatingregion from 707 at March 31, 2001 to 978 at March 31, 2002, and transaction
volumes increased as a result.
We currently hold our ATM processing business in France for sale. Consequently,
we have reclassified the operational results for France for all reported periods
to discontinued operations and have disclosed the relevant assets and
liabilities from discontinued operations in accordance with SFAS 144.
Operating expenses for the Other Operations Sub-segment were $0.3increased 40% or $0.2
million to $0.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2001 as compared to $0.6March 31, 2002 from $0.5
million for the three months ended September 30, 2000, and $2.2 million forMarch 31, 2001. Indonesia operating expenses
generated most of this increase. We have not included the nine months
ended September 30, 2001DASH network expenses
in this
15
segment because we sold DASH in January 2002 as compared to $1.7 million for the nine months ended
September 30, 2000. The increases for the nine month period are due primarily to
reallocations of cost from the corporate services segmentfurther described in Note 8 to
the Other
Operations Sub-segment. The operating expenses of this segment are generated by
EFT Network Services LLC, a subsidiary of Euronet USA, and unallocated costs
associated with the Company's processing facilities in Budapest, Hungary.unaudited consolidated financial statements.

o ATM site rental costs, costsrentals,
o Costs associated with maintaining ATMs,
o ATM telecommunication costs, interesttelecommunications,
o Interest on network cash and cash delivery, and

from $5.3$6.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2000 andMarch 31, 2001. This increase is
primarily attributable to $20.7 million foroperating the nine months ended

increasing transaction volumes on existing sites and the Service Bank ATM network in March

operating cost structure on these sites. Increasing transaction volumes on
existing sites that have fixed direct operating expenses decreases our costs per
ATM. In addition, there was an increase in the Company recorded a one-time gain in its

The decreasesSoftware license fees increased $1.0 million from the three month period ended
March 31, 2001 to the same period in 2002, due primarily to $1.3 million in
license fees that we obtained as part of the software license fees for the three months ended September 30,
2001 reflects the change in the mix of contracts signed as comparedagreement with
ALLTEL (see Note 9 to the three
months ended September 30, 2000. The Company has signed an increasing number of
contracts that have a larger share of professional services relative to the
license fee. The Company believesour unaudited consolidated financial statements). We
believe that the revenues of the Software Solutions Segment will increasingly be
derived from the Company'sour upgraded and new set of software solutions, including our
wireless banking solutions.
ProfessionalThe decrease in professional service fees are generally realizedof $0.8 million is due to fewer
billable hours, service and consulting contract work that we performed in
connection with the sale and installation of software although an increasing amount ofduring the three months

as license fees using the percentage of completion method.
The increase in maintenance fees for the three and nine months periods ended
September 30, 2001 is due to the increased softwarecompletion of several large
contracts since March 2001, thereby initiating the maintenance aspect of these
contracts, partially offset by termination of maintenance contracts by existing
customers. We intend to secure long-term revenue streams through multi-year
maintenance agreements with existing and new customers.

Direct operating costs consist of hardware costs and distributor commissions.
The increase in direct costs of $0.2 million for the three months ending March
31, 2002 from the three months ending March 31, 2001 is largely due to the cost
of the one computer hardware sale discussed above, partially offset by a
decrease in distributor commissions.
During the first quarter of 2001 the Companywe reduced itsour workforce significantly with the
primary objective of reducing costs in itsour Software Solutions Segment to bring
them more in line with the anticipated revenue. TheBecause the workforce reductions
involved payment of severance equal to several weeks' salary to most employees,
the financial impact of these reductions can be seenwas greater in the resultssecond and
subsequent quarters of 2001.
The decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses for the three
months ending March 31, 2002 from the three months ending March 31, 2001 was
primarily due to our efforts at controlling expenses, in particular,
telecommunication expense which decreased $0.3 million. Some of the cost
reductions were one-time credits and incentives that are not expected to
continue in the future.
Depreciation and amortization expense increased for the three months ending
March 31, 2002 from the three months ending March 31, 2001 due to the addition
of $0.4 million in leasehold improvements in late 2001 and the first quarter of
2002, as well as the addition of $1.0 million in capitalized research and
development costs during 2001. Depreciation of improvements and amortization of

We capitalized $0.1 million forin software development costs during the ninethree
months ended September 30, 2001 from $5.7 million forMarch 31, 2002 in accordance with our accounting policy of
capitalizing development costs on a product-by-product basis once technological

Minority Interest
We recorded the minority interest in losses from Euronet Sigma Nusantara, an

Discontinued Operations
We intend to sell our processing business in France. Consequently, we have
reclassified the operational results for France for all reported periods to
discontinued operations. We disclose the relevant assets and nine monthliabilities from
discontinued operations in accordance with SFAS 144. The losses from France
operations reported as discontinued operations for the three months ended
March 31, 2002 were $0.2 million as compared to $0.7 million for the three
months ended March 31, 2001.
On January 4, 2002, we sold substantially all of the DASH assets to ALLTEL
Information Services for $6.8 million in cash. Of this amount, $0.7 million is
being held in escrow under the terms of a separate escrow agreement to cover
certain post-closing adjustments and any damages that might arise from breach of
the representations and warranties contained in the purchase agreement with
ALLTEL. We recorded a pre-tax gain of approximately $4.8 million related to this
transaction. We reported income from the discontinued operations of DASH of
$0.1 million and $0.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2002 and
2001, respectively.
As a result of the above, we have removed the operating results of France and

On June 28, 2000 the Companywe entered into an unsecured revolving credit agreement (the "Credit Agreement")
providing a facility of up to $4.0 million from three shareholders, as follows: DST Systems, Inc. in the amountone of $2.4
million; Hungarian-American Enterprise Fund in the amount of $1.0 million; andwhich
was Michael J. Brown, theEuronet's CEO and a Director of the Company, in the amount of
$600,000. Thedirector. This credit facility was
originally available to be drawn upon until December
28, 2000,renewed twice and repayment of any draws was due June 28, 2001. The Credit Agreement
was amended and renewed for six month periodspayable on December 28, 2000 and June 28,
2001 and, as a result of such amendments, any amounts drawn on the facility must
now be repaid by June 28, 2002. A "commitment" fee was paid forWe issued 300,000
warrants in conjunction with the initial facilityissuance and extensions to this facility. On
May 29, 2001, we drew $2.0 million and issued an additional 160,000 warrants
based on the terms of 100,000 warrants issued
pro-rata to the lenders with acredit agreement. The warrant strike price was set at
the average share price, as quoted on NASDAQNasdaq for 10 trading days prior to the
warrant issue date, less 10 percent. An additional 100,000 and 50,000 warrants, onThe exercise price for Michael J. Brown was

the Credit Agreement on January 2,27, 2002 to be no less than the full trading
price of our stock on Nasdaq as of the date of the agreement providing for grant
of the warrants, with the amount of the discount that would have resulted from
the original terms of the Credit Agreement to be paid to Mr. Brown in cash.
The exercise prices for the warrants for the other two shareholders were $7.00
per share for the 100,000 warrants issued as of June 28, 2000, $4.12 per share
for the 100,000 warrants issued as of December 29, 2000, $5.92 per share for the
160,000 warrants issued as of May 29, 2001 and $6.70 per share for the 100,000
warrants issued as of June 28, 2001. The exercise prices for the warrants for
Michael J. Brown were $8.25 per share for the 100,000 warrants issued as of June
28, 2000, $4.12 per share for the 100,000 warrants issued as of December 29,

$9.00 per share for the 100,000 warrants issued as of June 28, 2001.
In 2001, two participants in the revolving credit agreement elected to exercise
a total of 361,000 warrants for an equal number of shares. We received a total
amount of $2.1 million in cash from these transactions.
We elected not to renew the credit agreement in December 2001 and, on June 28,March 21,
2002, we repaid the outstanding credit facility debt in full. Payment consisted
of $2.0 million in principal and interest. As of March 31, 2002, 99,000 warrants
remain outstanding with respect to this credit facility. Additional warrants
were exercised in May 2002 as described more fully in Note 12 to the unaudited
consolidated financial statements.
In January 2001, we entered into an unsecured credit facility loan agreement
under which we borrowed $0.5 million from Michael Brown in order to fund
transactions on our Czech Republic ATM network. Amounts advanced under this loan
agreement mature six months from the date an advance is made, but the amounts
were extended for a second six-month period. Amounts advanced bear interest of
10% per annum. In January 2002 we paid in full the subsequent
extensions of the facility. Warrants are issuable on similar termsloan principal and conditions for each draw on the facility at the rate of 80,000 warrants for each

a certificate of deposit for $5.0 million that replaced Mr. Brown's security
pledge, as well as a related $0.8 million letter of credit and issued 160,000
warrants in respectcertificate of

The Company leasesdeposit.
We leased many of itsour ATMs under capital lease arrangements that expire between
20012002 and 2005.2008. The leases bear interest between 8% and 12% per annum. As of
September 30, 2001 the CompanyMarch 31, 2002, we owed $11.9$10.9 million under suchthese capital lease arrangements. The Company expectsWe
expect that itsour capital requirements will continue in the future, butalthough
strategies that promote outsourcing and redeployment of underperforming ATMs
will not be as great as they were in the past, as the Company intends to
continue to promote its outsourcing capabilities and re-deploy under-performing
ATMs currently operating in the network. This strategy should reduce the
Company's reliance on capital expenditures in the future as the business
continues to grow. Fixed asset purchases and capital lease payments for the
remaindersome of 2001 are expected to be approximately $2.3 million in the Company's
existing markets, notably Western and Central Europe.these requirements. Acquisitions of related ATM businessbusinesses
and investments in new markets in furtherance of the Company's
strategy maywill require additional capital expenditures.
Fixed asset purchases for 2002 are currently estimated to be in the range of $10
to $13 million, subject to our evaluation of acceptable returns and transaction
levels of new ATM investment, particularly in the United Kingdom.
Effective July 1, 2001, we implemented our Employee Stock Purchase Plan, or
ESPP, under which employees have the opportunity to purchase common stock
through payroll deductions according to specific eligibility and participation
requirements. We completed a series of offerings of three months duration with
new offerings commencing on January 1, April 1, July 1, and October 1 of each
year. Under the plan, participating employees are granted options which
immediately vest and are automatically exercised on the final date of the
respective offering
21
period. The exercise price of common stock options purchased is the lesser of
85% of the "fair market value" (as defined in the ESPP) of the shares on the
first day of each offering or the last date of each offering. The options are
funded by participating employees' payroll deductions or cash payments. Under
the provisions of the ESPP, we reserved 500,000 shares of common stock of which
we had issued 226,454 shares as of March 31, 2002. We intend to qualify this
plan as an "employee stock purchase plan" under section 423 of the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986. During the three months ended March 31, 2002, we issued
51,924 shares at a price of $14.45 per share, resulting in proceeds to us of
$0.75 million.
In 2002, we made matching contributions of 9,647 shares of stock in conjunction
with our 401(k) employee benefits plan for plan year 2001. Under the terms of
this plan, employer matching contributions consist of two parts, referred to as
"basic" and "discretionary". The basic matching contribution is equal to 50% of
eligible employee elective salary deferrals between 4% and 6% of participating
employee salaries for the plan year. The discretionary matching contribution is
determined by our board of directors for a plan year and is allocated in
proportion to employee elective deferrals. As of March 31, 2002, total employer
matching contributions since inception of the plan has consisted of 25,922
shares under the basic match and 16,275 shares under the discretionary matching
contribution.
We reduced the total book value of our long term 12 3/8% senior discount notes
from $82.3 million at March 31, 2001, to $38.7 million at March 31, 2002. We did
this through a series of debt-for-debt and debt-for-equity exchanges as more
fully described in Note 6 to our March 31, 2002 unaudited consolidated financial
statements and in Note 11 to our consolidated financial statements for the year
ending December 31, 2001. Due to market and other factors, we may not be able to
continue to successfully implement these exchanges in 2002 and beyond. We are
required to commence cash payments of interest on these notes on January 1,
2003. At current debt levels, we will be required to make approximately $2.5
million in interest payments on a semi-annual basis beginning January 1, 2003.
The full principal balance of these notes will be due and payable on July 1,
2006.
We have no significant off-balance sheet items.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Our critical accounting policies are as follows:
Software Revenue Recognition
Revenues from software licensing agreement contracts are recognized over the
contract term using the percentage of completion method based on the percentage
of services that are provided compared with the total estimated services to be
provided over the entire contract. Revenue from time and material service
contracts is recognized as the services are provided. Revenues from software
licensing agreement contracts representing newly released products deemed to
have a higher than normal risk of failure during installation are recognized on
a completed contract basis whereby revenues and related costs are deferred until
the contract is complete. Maintenance revenue is recognized over the contractual
period or as services are performed. Revenue in excess of billings on software
license agreements contracts is recorded as unbilled receivables and is included
in current assets. Billings in excess of revenue on software license agreements
contracts are recorded as deferred revenue and are included in current
liabilities until such time the above revenue recognition criteria are met.
Capitalization of Software Development Costs
We apply SFAS 2 and 86 in recording research and development costs.
Research costs aimed at the discovery of new knowledge with the hope that such
knowledge will be useful in developing a new product or service or a new process
or technique or in bringing about significant improvement to an existing product
or process are expensed as incurred (see Note 25 to the Consolidated Financial
Statements for the year ended December 31, 2001--Research and Development).
Development costs aimed at the translation of research findings or other
knowledge into a plan or design for a new product or process or for a
significant improvement to an existing product or process whether intended for
sale or use are capitalized on a product-by-product basis when technological
feasibility is established.
Technological feasibility of computer software products is established when we
have completed all planning, designing, coding, and testing activities that are
necessary to establish that the product can be produced to meet its design
specifications including functions, features, and technical performance
requirements. Technological feasibility is evidenced by the existence of a
working model of the product or by completion of a detail program design. The
detail program design must (a) establish that the necessary skills, hardware,
and software technology are available to produce the product, (b) be complete
and consistent with the product design, and (c) have been reviewed for high-risk
development issues, with any uncertainties related to identified high-risk
development issues being adequately resolved.
Accounting for Income Taxes
We have significant tax loss carryforwards and other temporary differences which
are recorded as deferred tax assets and liabilities. Deferred tax assets
realizable in future periods are recorded, net of $0.2
million.a valuation allowance based on
an assessment of each individual entity's ability to generate sufficient taxable
income within an appropriate period.
24
In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, we consider whether it is
more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will
not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent
upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those
temporary differences become deductible. We consider the scheduled reversal of
deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income, and tax planning
strategies in making this assessment. Based upon the level of historical taxable
income and projections for future taxable income over the periods in which the
deferred tax assets are deductible, we believe it is more likely than not that
we will realize the benefits of these deductible differences, net of the
existing valuation allowances at March 31, 2002.
In recent periods, profitability has improved in certain countries in which we
operate. When a sufficient history of taxable income has been established in
these countries, deferred tax assets increasingly will be considered realizable,
and the existing valuation allowances will be reduced.
Estimating the Impairment of Long Lived Assets
We are required to evaluate long-lived assets and certain identifiable
intangibles for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate
that the carrying amount of a long-lived asset (asset group) may not be
recoverable. Recoverability of a long-lived asset (asset group) is measured by a
comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to projected undiscounted future
net cash flows expected to result from the use and eventual disposition of the
asset (asset group). Such estimates will exclude interest charges that will be
expensed as incurred. Cash flow assumptions are dependent on whether the asset
is in use or in development. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the
impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying
amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets on a discounted cash
flow basis. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the carrying
amount or fair value less costs to sell. Future adverse changes in market
conditions could result in an inability to recover the carrying amount of an
asset, thereby possibly requiring an impairment charge in the future.
IMPACT OF NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS NOT YET ADOPTED
- --------------------------------------------------------
SFAS 141 and 142
In July 2001, the FASB issued Statement No. 141, Business Combinations, and
Statement No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets. Statement 141 requires
that the purchase method of accounting be used for all business combinations
initiated after June 30, 2001 as well as all purchase method business
combinations completed after June 30, 2001. Statement 142 will require that
goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite useful lives no longer be
amortized, but instead tested for impairment at least annually in accordance
with the provisions of Statement 142. Statement 142 will also require that
intangible assets with definite useful lives be amortized over their respective
estimated useful lives to their estimated residual values, and reviewed for
impairment in accordance with SFAS No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or
Disposal of Long-Lived Assets.
The Company is required to adopt the provisions of Statement 141 immediately,
and Statement 142 effective January 1, 2002. Furthermore, any goodwill and any
intangible asset determined to have an indefinite useful life that are acquired
in a purchase business combination completed after June 30, 2001 will not be
amortized, but will continue to be evaluated for impairment in accordance with
the appropriate pre-Statement 142 accounting literature.
Statement 141 will require upon adoption of Statement 142 that the Company
evaluate its existing intangible assets and goodwill that were acquired in a
prior purchase business combination, and to make any necessary reclassifications
in order to conform with the new criteria in Statement 141 for recognition apart
from goodwill. Upon adoption of Statement 142, the Company will be required to
reassess the useful lives and residual values of all intangible assets acquired
in purchase business combinations, and make any necessary amortization period
adjustments by the end of the first interim period after adoption. In addition,
to the extent an intangible asset is identified as having an indefinite useful
life, the Company will be required to test the intangible asset for impairment
in accordance with the provisions of Statement 142 within the first interim
period. Any impairment loss will be measured as of the date of adoption and
recognized as the cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle in the
first interim period.
In connection with the transitional goodwill impairment evaluation, Statement
142 will require the Company to perform an assessment of whether there is an
indication that goodwill is impaired as of the date of adoption. To
20
accomplish this the Company must identify its reporting units and determine the
carrying value of each reporting unit by assigning the assets and liabilities,
including the existing goodwill and intangible assets, to those reporting units
as of the date of adoption. The Company will then have up to six months from the
date of adoption to determine the fair value of each reporting unit and compare
it to the reporting unit's carrying amount. To the extent a reporting unit's
carrying amount exceeds its fair value, an indication exists that the reporting
unit's goodwill may be impaired and the Company must perform the second step of
the transitional impairment test. In the second step, the Company must compare
the implied fair value of the reporting unit's goodwill, determined by
allocating the reporting unit's fair value to all of its assets (recognized and
unrecognized) and liabilities in a manner similar to a purchase price allocation
in accordance with Statement 141 to its carrying amount both of which would be
measured as of the date of adoption. This second step is required to be
completed as soon as possible, but no later than the end of the year of
adoption. Any transitional impairment loss will be recognized as the cumulative
effect of a change in accounting principle in the Company's statement of
earnings.
And finally, any unamortized negative goodwill existing at the date Statement
142 is adopted must be written off as the cumulative effect of a change in
accounting principle.
As of the date of adoption, the Company expects to have unamortized goodwill in
the amount of $1.7 million which will be subject to the transition provisions of
Statements 141 and 142. Because of the extensive effort needed to comply with
adopting Statements 141 and 142, it is not practicable to reasonably estimate
the impact of adopting these Statements on the Company's financial statements at
the date of this report, including whether any transitional impairment losses
will be required to be recognized as the cumulative effect of a change in
accounting principle.
SFAS 143
Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (SFAS) No. 143, Accounting for Asset
Retirement Obligations (SFAS No. 143), addresses financial accounting and
reporting for obligations associated with the retirement of tangible long-lived
assets and for the associated asset retirement costs.145
The Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) began this project in 1994 to
address the accounting for the costs of nuclear decommissioning. The FASB
subsequently expanded the scope of the project to include closure or removal-
type costs in other industries. As a result,recently issued Statement
No. 143 applies to all
entities.145 (SFAS 145), Rescission of FASB Statements No. 4, 44, and 64, Amendment
of FASB Statement No. 13, and Technical Corrections. The Statement updates,
clarifies and simplifies existing accounting pronouncements. In particular, SFAS
No. 143 requires an enterprise to record the fair value of an asset
retirement obligation as a liability in the period in which it incurs a legal
obligation associated with the retirement of tangible long-lived assets that
result145 rescinds SFAS 4, Reporting Gains and Losses from the acquisition, construction, developmentExtinguishment of Debt,
which required all gains and or normal uselosses from extinguishment of debt to be aggregated
and, if material, classified as an extraordinary item, net of related income tax
effect. Under SFAS 145, gains and losses from extinguishment of debt should not
be classified as extraordinary unless the assets. The enterprise also is to record a corresponding increase toextinguishment meets the carrying amount of the related long-lived asset (i.e., the associated asset
retirement costs) and to depreciate that cost over the life of the asset. The
liability is changed at the end of each period to reflect the passage of time
(i.e., accretion expense) and changes in the estimated future cash flows
underlying the initial fair value measurement. Because of the extensive use of
estimates, most enterprises will record a gain or loss when they settle the
obligation. Enterprises are required to adopt Statement No. 143 for fiscal
years beginning after June 15, 2002. The Company has not evaluated the impact
on the consolidated financial statements of adopting this standard.
SFAS 144
SFAS No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets,
addresses financial accounting and reporting for the impairment or disposal of
long lived assets. While SFAS No. 144 supersedes SFAS No. 121, Accounting for
the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of,
it retains many of the fundamental provisions of that Statement. SFAS No. 144
also supersedes the accounting and reporting provisionsrelevant

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Operational Risk; Security
Our business involves the operation and maintenance of a sophisticated computer
network and telecommunications connections with banks, financial institutions
and mobile operators. This, in turn, requires the maintenance of computer
equipment and infrastructure, including telecommunications and electrical
systems, and the integration and enhancement of complex software applications.
There are certain operational risks inherent in this type of business which can
require temporary shut-down of part or all of our processing systems, including
failure of electrical supply, failure of computer hardware and software errors.
All of our ATMs other than the ones in Germany are operated through our
processing center in Budapest, so any operational problem there may have a
significant adverse impact on the operation of our network generally.
We have experienced operations and computer development staff and have created
redundancies and procedures, particularly in our Budapest processing center, to
mitigate these risks. However, they cannot be eliminated entirely. Any technical
failure that prevents operation of our systems for a significant period of time
will prevent us from processing transactions during that period of time and will
directly and adversely affect our revenues and financial results.
Our ATM network systems process electronic financial transactions using
information that is read by ATMs or point-of-sale terminals from bank debit and
credit cards, or that our customers input into our systems for mobile phone
recharge services. We capture, transmit, handle and store this sensitive bank
card information in performing services for our customers. In addition, our
software is designed to permit our customers to operate electronic financial
transaction networks similar to our network, so our software is used in handling
this type of sensitive information.
These businesses involve certain inherent security risks, in particular the risk
of electronic interception and theft of the information for use in fraudulent
card transactions. We have incorporated industry standard encryption technology
and processing methodology into our systems and software to maintain high levels
of security. Although this technology and methodology mitigates security risks,
they cannot be eliminated entirely as criminal elements apply increasingly
sophisticated technology to attempt to obtain unauthorized access to the
information handled by ATM and electronic financial transaction networks.
Any breach in our security systems could result in the perpetration of
fraudulent financial transactions for which we may be found liable. We are
insured against various risks, including theft and negligence, but our insurance
coverage is subject to deductibles, exclusions and limitations that may leave us
bearing some or all of any losses arising from security breaches.
In addition to electronic fraud issues, theft and vandalism of ATMs presents
risks for our ATM business. We install ATMs at sites that are high flow traffic
sites and are exposed to theft and vandalism. Vandalism during the year 2001
increased in some of our markets, particularly in Hungary where a series of
incidents were attributed to an organized gang that we believe has been
apprehended. Although we are insured against these risks, deductibles,
exclusions or limitations in our insurance coverage may leave us bearing some or
all of any losses arising from theft
26
or vandalism of ATMs. In addition, we have experienced increases in claims under
our insurance, which has increased our insurance premiums.
Foreign Exchange Exposure
In the ninethree months ended September 30, 2001, 31%March 31, 2002, 60.2% of the Company'sour revenues were generated
in Poland, Hungary, the United Kingdom and Hungary,Germany as compared to 29%65.6% in the
ninethree months ended September 30, 2000 and 27% in the nine months ended September 30, 1999. The
first nine months of 2001 and 2000 figures have increased mainlyMarch 31, 2001. This decrease is due to the overall increase
in revenues for the Polish operations.our operations, including in these four countries. In Hungary
and Poland, the majority of revenues received are denominated in the Hungarian
Forintforint and in Poland, the
majority of revenues are denominated in Polish Zloty.zloty, respectively. However, the majority of theseour foreign
currency denominated contracts in both countries are linked to either to inflation
or the retail price index. While it remainsIn the case thatUnited Kingdom and Germany, 100% of the
revenues received are denominated in the British pound and the euro,
respectively. While a significant portion of the Company'sour expenditures in these countries
are still made in or are denominated in U.S. Dollars the
Company is alsodollars, we are striving to achieve
more of itsour expenses in local currencies to match itsour revenues.
The Company estimatesWe estimate that a further 10% depreciation in foreign exchange rates of the
Deutsche Mark,mark, Hungarian Forint,forint, Polish Zlotyzloty and the British Poundpound sterling
against the U.S. dollar, would have the combined effect of a $3.7$2.9 million
decrease in the reported net loss. This was estimated using 10% ofby segregating revenues
and expenses by the Company's
net losses after adjusting for unusual impairment and other items including U.S. dollar, denominated or indexed expenses. The Company believes thatHungarian forint, Polish zloty, British pounds,
and euro and then applying a 10% currency devaluation to the non-U.S.
dollar amounts. We believe this quantitative measure has inherent limitations.
It does not take into account any governmental actions or changes in either
customer purchasing patterns or the
Company'sour financing or operating strategies.
As a result of continued European economic convergence, including the increased
influence of the Deutsche Mark,euro as opposed to the U.S. Dollar,dollar on the Central European
currencies, the Company expectswe expect that the currencies of the markets where it investswe invest will
fluctuate less against the Deutsche Markeuro than against the Dollar.dollar. Accordingly, the Company believeswe believe
that its Deutsche Markour euro denominated debt provides, in the medium to long term, for a
closer matching of assets and liabilities than would Dollardollar denominated debt.
Inflation and Functional Currencies
In past years, Hungary, Poland andGenerally, the Czech Republic experienced high levels of
inflation. Consequently, these countries' currencies declinedcountries we operate in value against
the major currencies of the OECD over this time period. However, due to the
reduction in the inflation rate of these countries in recent years, none of
these countries are considered to have a hyper-inflationary economy. Further,
the majority of all three subsidiaries' revenues are
22
denominated in the local currency. Thus all three subsidiaries use their local
currency as the functional currency. The Polish and Czech subsidiaries changed
their functional currency to the respective local currency as of January 1, 1998
and January 1, 1999, respectively, and the Hungarian subsidiary changed as of
July 1, 1999.
Germany, France and the United Kingdom have experienced relatively low and stable inflation rates
in recent years. Therefore, the local currency in each of these markets is the
functional currency. Although Croatia like Germany and
France, has maintained relatively stable inflation
and exchange rates, the functional currency of theour Croatian companysubsidiary is the
U.S. dollar due to the significant level of U.S. dollar denominated revenues and
expenses. Due to thethese factors, mentioned above, the Company doeswe do not believe that inflation will have a
significant effect on our results of operations or financial condition. The Companyposition. We
continually reviewsreview inflation and the functional currency in each of the
countries that it operates in.where we operate.
Interest Rate Risk
The fair market value of the Company'sour long-term fixed interest rate debt is subject to
interest rate risk. Generally, the fair market value of fixed interest rate debt
will increase as interest rates fall and decrease as interest rates rise. The
estimated fair value of the Company'sour notes payable at September
30, 2001March 31, 2002 was $40.9$36.2 million
compared to a carrying value of $46.2$38.7 million. A 1% increase from prevailing
interest rates at September 30, 2001March 31, 2002 would result in a decrease in fair value of
notes payable by approximately $1.5$1.2 million. Fair values were determined from
quoted market prices and from investment bankers considering credit ratings and
the remaining term to maturity.
First Interest Repayment
Beginning January 1, 2003, interest payments of approximately euro 2.8 million
($2.5 million) on our outstanding 12 3/8% senior debt will be payable
semi-annually on January 1 and July 1, with the final interest payment due on
July 1, 2006. Because the bond interest is payable in euro, foreign currency
fluctuations between the U.S. dollar and the euro may result in gains or losses
which, in turn, may increase or decrease the amount of U.S. dollar equivalent
interest paid on a U.S. GAAP basis. We currently anticipate making these
interest payments from earnings denominated in local currencies in our European
markets. As a result, it may not be necessary to hedge these expected cash
payments in U.S. dollars, since the source of funds used for payments would
already be in euro or euro-linked denominations. Throughout 2002, we will
actively monitor our potential need to hedge future bond interest payments, and
if required, we will initiate hedging strategies to minimize foreign currency
losses resulting from payments made from U.S. dollars.
