EURONET WORLDWIDE, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(1) GENERAL

Organization

Euronet Worldwide, Inc. (together with its subsidiaries, the “Company” or “Euronet”) is a leading electronic payments provider. Euronet offers payment and transaction processing and distribution solutions to financial institutions, retailers, service providers and individual consumers. Euronet's primary product offerings include comprehensive automated teller machine (“ATM”), point-of-sale (“POS”), card outsourcing, card issuing and merchant acquiring services, software solutions, electronic distribution of prepaid mobile airtime and other electronic payment products, foreign currency exchange services and global money transfer services.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared from the records of the Company, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. (“U.S. GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). In the opinion of management, such unaudited consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) necessary to fairly present the consolidated financial position and the results of operations, comprehensive income and cash flows for the interim periods. The unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements of the Company for the year ended December 31, 2017, including the notes thereto, set forth in the Company’s 2017 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Certain amounts in prior years have been reclassified to conform to the current year's presentation.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reported period. Significant items subject to such estimates and assumptions include computing income taxes, estimating the useful lives and potential impairment of long-lived assets and goodwill, as well as allocating the purchase price to assets acquired and liabilities assumed in acquisitions and revenue recognition. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year ending December 31, 2018.

Seasonality

Euronet’s EFT Processing Segment experiences its heaviest demand for dynamic currency conversion ("DCC") services during the third quarter of the fiscal year, coinciding with the tourism season. Additionally, the EFT Processing and epay Segments are impacted by seasonality during the fourth quarter and the first quarter of each year due to higher transaction levels during the holiday season and lower levels following the holiday season. Seasonality in the Money Transfer Segment varies by regions of the world. In most markets, Euronet usually experiences increased demand for money transfer services from the month of May through the fourth quarter of each year, coinciding with the increase in worker migration patterns and various holidays, and experiences its lowest transaction levels during the first quarter of each year.

(2) RECENTLY ISSUED AND ADOPTED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)” (“Topic 606”), and subsequently modified the standard with several ASUs. The Company adopted the standard on January 1, 2018 using the modified retrospective method applied to those contracts which were not completed as of January 1, 2018. Results for reporting periods beginning after January 1, 2018 are presented under Topic 606, while prior period amounts are not adjusted and continue to be reported in accordance with historic accounting under Topic 605.

The Company completed its review of customer contracts relative to the requirements of Topic 606 and concluded that revenues from certain customer contracts in the epay Segment should be recorded differently under the principal versus agent guidance of Topic 606. With respect to those contracts, the Company concluded that it earns a commission from content providers for distributing and processing their prepaid mobile airtime and other electronic payment products, but it is not the principal for the products themselves. As a result, the impact of the change in accounting principle was a reduction of $14.3 million and $36.9 million in both revenues and direct operating expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively, with no impact on reported net income.

7

Contract Balances

The new standard requires the deferral of incremental costs to obtain customer contracts, known as contract assets, which are then amortized to expense as part of selling, general and administrative expense over the respective periods of expected benefit. The Company completed its review of such costs and concluded that a transition adjustment was not necessary related to contract assets. However, the Company has implemented processes and controls to record such costs on an ongoing basis and will disclose them if they become material.

The Company records deferred revenues when cash payments are received or due in advance of its performance. The decrease in the deferred revenue balance for the first half of 2018 is primarily driven by $17.1 million of cash payments received or due in advance of satisfying the performance obligations, offset by $18.5 million of revenues recognized that were included in the deferred revenue balance as of December 31, 2017.

Variable Consideration

Within the EFT segment, outsourcing services are generally billed on the basis of a fixed fee per ATM, plus a transaction-based fee. Transaction-based fees are recognized at the time the transactions are processed and outsourcing management fees are recognized ratably over the contract period. These fees can be variable based on transaction volume tiered discounts; however, as all tiered discounts are calculated monthly, the actual discount is recorded on a monthly basis. In addition, the epay segment generates commissions from the distribution of electronic content. It is common for these long-term contracts to contain award fees, incentive fees, or other provisions that can either increase or decrease the transaction price. These variable amounts generally are awarded upon achievement of certain performance metrics or program milestones and can be based upon customer discretion.

Transaction fees, as well as any tiered volume discounts or incentive fees, are calculated and billed monthly in accordance with the terms established in the contract. The Company estimates variable consideration at the most likely amount to which it expects to be entitled. The Company includes estimated amounts in the transaction price to the extent it is probable that a significant reversal of cumulative revenue recognized will not occur when the uncertainty associated with the variable consideration is resolved. Estimates of variable consideration and determination of whether to include estimated amounts in the transaction price are based largely on as assessment of Euronet's anticipated performance and all information (historical, current and forecast) that is reasonably available. 

Arrangements with Multiple Performance Obligations

The Company's most significant revenues are generated from transaction fees for which there are no remaining performance obligations left to fulfill after revenue is recognized. An insignificant amount of revenues are generated from contracts with customers which may include multiple performance obligations. For such arrangements, Euronet allocates revenues to each performance obligation based on its relative standalone selling price.

Disaggregation of Revenues

Revenues are recognized when control of the promised goods or services is transferred to Euronet's customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration it expects to be entitled to in exchange for goods or services.

The following table presents the Company's revenues disaggregated by segment and region. Sales and usage-based taxes are excluded from revenues. The Company believes disaggregation by segment and region best depicts how the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows are affected by economic factors. The disaggregation of revenues by segment and region is based on management's assessment of segment performance together with allocation of financial resources, both capital and operating support costs, on a segment and regional level. Both segments and regions benefit from synergies achieved through concentration of operations and are influenced by macro-economic, regulatory and political factors in the respective segment and region.

As noted above, prior period amounts have not been adjusted under the modified retrospective method.

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-04, Recognition of Breakage for Certain Prepaid Stored-Value Products. The new standard specifies that liabilities within its scope are considered to be financial liabilities, and amends the guidance in ASC 405-20, Extinguishments of Liabilities, by directing entities to derecognize prepaid stored-value product liabilities based on expected breakage in proportion to the pattern of rights expected to be exercised by the consumer. Derecognition for breakage is permitted only to the extent that it is probable that a significant reversal of recognized breakage will not subsequently occur. The new standard is consistent with the breakage guidance in Topic 606. The Company adopted this ASU as of January 1, 2018 along with Topic 606. The adoption of this standard did not have a significant impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In August 2016, the FASB issued an accounting standard classified under FASB ASC Topic 230, “Statement of Cash Flows”. This accounting standard provides guidance on eight specific cash flow issues. Subsequently, the FASB issued amendments to this accounting standard that required companies to include restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling the statement of cash flows.

The Company adopted these standards as of January 1, 2018. The adoption of these accounting standards resulted in an increase in net cash provided by operating activities of $10.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017. As of June 30, 2018, the Company had $72.9 million of restricted cash consisting of restricted cash held in trust and/or cash held on behalf of others and cash collateral on bank credit arrangements. Cash held in trust and/or cash held on behalf of others is in connection with the administration of the customer collection and vendor remittance activities by certain subsidiaries within the Company’s epay and EFT Processing Segments. Amounts collected on behalf of certain mobile phone operators and/or merchants are deposited into a restricted cash account. The bank credit arrangements primarily represent cash collateral on deposit with commercial banks to cover guarantees.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases(Topic 842), which will update the existing guidance on accounting for leases and require new qualitative and quantitative disclosures about the Company’s leasing activities. The new standard requires lessees to account for all leases on the balance sheet, except for certain short-term leases that have a maximum possible lease term of 12 months. The accounting for lessors is largely unchanged from the previous accounting guidance, except for leverage lease accounting which is not permitted for leases entered into or modified after the effective date of the new standard. The new standard is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018 and interim periods within those annual periods, with early adoption permitted. In transition, lessees and lessors are required to recognize and measure leases at the beginning of the earliest period presented using a modified retrospective approach. The modified retrospective approach includes a number of optional practical expedients that the Company may elect to apply. The Company currently anticipates this standard will have a material impact on its consolidated balance sheets but will not have a material impact on its consolidated income statements. The Company currently expects the most significant impact will be the recognition of right-of-

9

use assets and lease liabilities for operating leases. The Company currently expects its accounting for capital leases to remain substantially unchanged. The Company is continuing to assess the potential impacts of the standard.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326), which requires entities to measure all expected credit losses for financial assets held at the reporting date based on historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. This replaces the existing incurred loss model and is applicable to the measurement of credit losses on financial assets measured at amortized cost. This guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019. Early application will be permitted for all entities for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2018. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the effect of the adoption of ASU 2016-13 on its consolidated financial statements.

(3) STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY

Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share has been computed by dividing earnings available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the respective periods. Diluted earnings per share has been computed by dividing earnings available to common stockholders by the weighted average shares outstanding during the respective period, after adjusting for any potential dilution from options to purchase the Company's common stock, assumed vesting of restricted stock and the assumed conversion of the Company’s convertible debentures. The following table provides the computation of diluted weighted average number of common shares outstanding:

	Three Months Ended June 30,		Six Months Ended June 30,
	2018	2017	2018	2017
Computation of diluted weighted average shares outstanding:
Basic weighted average shares outstanding	51,226,898	52,453,752	51,563,090	52,399,848
Incremental shares from assumed exercise of stock options and vesting of restricted stock	1,494,766	1,788,091	1,537,018	1,753,620
Incremental shares from assumed conversion of convertible notes	771,171	969,150	771,171	969,150
Diluted weighted average shares outstanding	53,492,835	55,210,993	53,871,279	55,122,618

The table includes the impact of all stock options and restricted stock that are dilutive to the Company’s weighted average common shares outstanding during the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017. The calculation of diluted earnings per share excludes stock options or shares of restricted stock that are anti-dilutive to the Company’s weighted average common shares outstanding of approximately 1,209,000 and 1,124,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively, and approximately 928,000 and 929,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, respectively.

The Company's convertible notes have settlement features requiring the Company upon conversion to settle the principal amount of the debt and the conversion value in excess of the principal value ("conversion premium") for cash or shares of the Company's common stock or a combination thereof, at the Company's option. At issuance, the Company stated its intent to settle any conversion of these notes by paying cash for the principal value and issuing common stock for any conversion premium.  Accordingly, the convertible notes are included in the calculation of diluted earnings per share if their inclusion is dilutive. The convertible notes would only have a dilutive effect if the market price per share of common stock exceeds the conversion price of $72.18 per share and the dilutive effect increases the more the market price exceeds the conversion price. As of June 30, 2018 and 2017, the stock price exceeded the conversion price and these notes were dilutive to earnings per share. Further, as a result of the share price decreasing from $87.37 at June 30, 2017 to $83.77 at June 30, 2018, there was a decrease in shares from the assumed conversion of convertible notes.

Share repurchases

The Company's Board of Directors has authorized a stock repurchase program ("Repurchase Program") allowing Euronet to repurchase up to $375 million in value or 10.0 million shares of stock through March 31, 2020. Repurchases under the Repurchase Program may take place in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions, including derivative transactions, and may be made under a Rule 10b5-1 plan. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, the Company repurchased $50.0 million and $175.0 million, respectively, in value of Euronet common stock under the Repurchase Program.

Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss

Accumulated other comprehensive loss consists entirely of foreign currency translation adjustments. The Company recorded foreign currency translation losses of $58.5 million and $35.6 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018,

10

respectively, and gains of $51.2 million and $70.6 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, respectively. There were no reclassifications of foreign currency translation into the consolidated statements of income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017.

(4) GOODWILL AND ACQUIRED INTANGIBLE ASSETS, NET

A summary of acquired intangible assets and goodwill activity for the six months ended June 30, 2018 is presented below:

(in thousands)	Acquired Intangible Assets			Goodwill			Total Intangible Assets
Balance as of December 31, 2017	$	150,543		$	717,386		$	867,929
Increases (decreases):
Acquisition				20,742			20,742
Amortization	(11,616		)	—			(11,616		)
Other (primarily changes in foreign currency exchange rates)	(3,288		)	(18,966		)	(22,254		)
Balance as of June 30, 2018	$	135,639		$	719,162		$	854,801

Estimated amortization expense on intangible assets with finite lives, before income taxes, as of June 30, 2018, is expected to total $11.1 million for the remainder of 2018, $21.5 million for 2019, $20.7 million for 2020, $19.8 million for 2021, $18.7 million for 2022 and $13.8 million for 2023.

The Company completed the acquisitions of two small European businesses for an immaterial amount of cash consideration, completing one acquisition in the first quarter of 2018 and completing the other acquisition in the second quarter of 2018. The acquisitions have been accounted for as business combinations in accordance with U.S. GAAP and the results of operations have been included from the respective dates of acquisition in the EFT Processing Segment.

The Company’s annual goodwill impairment test is performed during the fourth quarter of its fiscal year. The annual impairment test for the year ended December 31, 2017 resulted in impairment charges of $31.8 million.

Determining the fair value of reporting units requires significant management judgment in estimating future cash flows and assessing potential market and economic conditions. It is reasonably possible that the Company’s operations will not perform as expected, or that the estimates or assumptions included in the 2017 annual impairment test could change, which may result in the Company recording material non-cash impairment charges during the year in which these changes take place.

Credit Facility

As of June 30, 2018, the Company had a $675 million senior secured credit facility (the "Credit Facility") consisting of a $600 million revolving credit facility and a $75 million term loan ("Term Loan A"), which had been reduced to $45.0 million through principal amortization payments. The Credit Facility expires April 9, 2019.

Interest on borrowings under the revolving credit facility and Term Loan A varies based upon the Company's consolidated total leverage ratio, as defined in the Company's credit agreement, and is based on a margin over the London Inter-Bank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) or a margin over a base rate, as selected by the Company, with the applicable margin ranging from 1.375% to 2.375% for LIBOR loans or 0.375% to 1.375% for base rate loans. Accordingly, the weighted average interest rate for borrowings outstanding under the Company's revolving credit facility and Term Loan A was 3.01% and 3.47%, respectively, as of June 30, 2018.

Convertible Debt

The Convertible Senior Notes (“Convertible Notes”) had a principal amount outstanding of $402.5 million as of June 30, 2018. The Convertible Notes mature in October 2044 unless repurchased or converted prior to such date, and are convertible into shares of Euronet Common Stock at a conversion price of approximately $72.18 per share. Holders of the Convertible Notes have the option to require the Company to purchase their notes at par on October 1, 2020, and have additional options to require the Company to purchase their notes at par on October 1, 2024, 2029, 2034, and 2039, or upon a change in control of the Company.

Holders may convert all or any portion of their Convertible Notes at their option at any time prior to October 1, 2044 only under the following circumstances: (1) during any calendar quarter (and only during such calendar quarter), if the closing sale price of the common stock for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) during a period of 30 consecutive trading days ending on the last trading day of the immediately preceding calendar quarter is greater than 130% of the conversion price on each applicable trading day; (2) during the five consecutive business day period after any ten consecutive trading day period (the measurement period) in which the trading price for the Convertible Notes for each trading day of the measurement period was less than 98% of the product of the closing sale price of the Company's common stock and the conversion rate on each such trading day; or (3) upon the occurrence of specified corporate events. If the holders exercise their option to convert, the Company is required to deliver cash or shares of the Company's common stock, at the Company's option, to satisfy the principal amount and the conversion premium.

None of the above conversion conditions are currently in effect.

12

Contractual interest expense for the Convertible Notes was $1.5 million and $3.0 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Accretion expense was $2.9 million and $5.7 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively, and $2.7 million and $5.4 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, respectively. The effective interest rate was 4.7% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018. As of June 30, 2018, the unamortized discount was $27.5 million, and will be amortized through October 1, 2020.

ATM Credit Facility

On May 11, 2018, the Company entered into a short-term credit facility in the amount of $300 million for the sole purpose of providing cash for its ATM network. Interest is charged on this financing on an annual basis at the Overnight LIBOR rate plus 1.75%. The facility expires on November 30, 2018. The weighted average interest rate for borrowings under the ATM credit facility was 3.5% for the second quarter of 2018.

(7) DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES

The Company is exposed to foreign currency exchange risk resulting from (i) the collection of funds or the settlement of money transfer transactions in currencies other than the U.S. Dollar, (ii) derivative contracts written to its customers in connection with providing cross-currency money transfer services and (iii) short-term borrowings that are payable in currencies other than the U.S. dollar. The Company enters into foreign currency derivative contracts, primarily foreign currency forwards and cross-currency swaps, to minimize its exposure related to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. As a matter of Company policy, the derivative instruments used in these activities are economic hedges and are not designated as hedges under ASC Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging ("ASC Topic 815"), primarilydue to either the relatively short duration of the contract term or the effects of fluctuations in currency exchange rates being reflected concurrently in earnings for both the derivative instrument and the hedged transaction and having an offsetting effect.

Foreign currency exchange contracts - Ria Operations and Corporate

In the United States, the Company's Ria operations use short-duration foreign currency forward contracts, generally with maturities up to 14 days, to offset the fluctuation in foreign currency exchange rates on the collection of money transfer funds between initiation of a transaction and its settlement. Due to the short duration of these contracts and the Company’s credit profile, the Company is generally not required to post collateral with respect to these foreign currency forward contracts. Most derivative contracts executed with counterparties in the U.S. are governed by an International Swaps and Derivatives Association agreement that includes standard netting arrangements; therefore, asset and liability positions from forward contracts and all other foreign exchange transactions with the same counterparty are net settled upon maturity. As of June 30, 2018, the Company held in its Ria operations foreign currency forward contracts outstanding in the U.S. with a notional value of $397 million, primarily in Australian dollars, Canadian dollars, British pounds, euros and Mexican pesos.

In addition, the Company uses forward contracts, typically with maturities from a few days to less than one year, to offset foreign exchange rate fluctuations on certain foreign currency denominated other asset and liability positions. As of June 30, 2018, the Company had foreign currency forward contracts outstanding with a notional value of $404 million, primarily in euros and Polish zloty.

Foreign currency exchange contracts - HiFX Operations

HiFX writes derivative instruments, primarily foreign currency forward contracts and cross-currency swaps, mostly with counterparties comprised of individuals and small-to-medium size businesses and derives a currency margin from this activity as part of its operations. HiFX aggregates its foreign currency exposures arising from customer contracts and may hedge some or all of the resulting net currency risks by entering into offsetting contracts with established financial institution counterparties. Foreign exchange revenues from HiFX's total portfolio of positions were $16.8 million and $35.5 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively, and $16.0 million and $31.7 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, respectively. All of the derivative contracts used in the Company's HiFX operations are economic hedges and are not designated as hedges under ASC Topic 815. The duration of these derivative contracts is generally less than one year.

The fair value of HiFX's total portfolio of positions can change significantly from period to period based on, among other factors, market movements and changes in customer contract positions. HiFX manages counterparty credit risk (the risk that counterparties will default and not make payments according to the terms of the agreements) on an individual counterparty basis. It mitigates this risk by entering into contracts with collateral posting requirements and/or by performing financial assessments prior to contract execution, conducting periodic evaluations of counterparty performance and maintaining a diverse portfolio of qualified counterparties. HiFX does not expect any significant losses from counterparty defaults.

The aggregate equivalent U.S. dollar notional amounts of foreign currency derivative customer contracts held by the Company in its HiFX operations as of June 30, 2018 was approximately $1.2 billion. The majority of customer contracts are written in major currencies such as the U.S. dollar, euro, New Zealand dollar, British pound, and Australian dollar.

(a) The Company enters into derivative contracts such as foreign currency exchange forwards and cross-currency swaps as part of its HiFX operations. These derivative contracts are excluded from this table as they are part of the broader disclosure of foreign currency exchange revenues for this business discussed above.

(8) FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

Fair value measurements used in the unaudited consolidated financial statements are based upon the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The fair value hierarchy distinguishes between (1) market participant assumptions developed based on market data obtained from independent sources (observable inputs) and (2) an entity’s own assumptions about market participant assumptions developed based on the best information available in the circumstances (unobservable inputs). The fair value hierarchy consists of three broad levels, which gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below:

• Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. 

• Level 2 – Valuations based on quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.

• Level 3 – Unobservable inputs in which little or no market activity exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions about the inputs that market participants would use in pricing.

The following table details financial assets and liabilities measured and recorded at fair value on a recurring basis:

15

Other Fair Value Disclosures

The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, trade accounts payable, accrued expenses and other current obligations approximate their fair values because of the relatively short-term maturities of these financial instruments. The carrying values of the Company’s long-term debt (other than the Convertible Notes), including the current portion, approximate fair value because interest is primarily based on LIBOR, which resets at various intervals of less than one year. The Company estimates the fair value of the Convertible Notes using quoted prices in inactive markets for identical liabilities (Level 2). As of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the fair values of the Convertible Notes were $514.3 million and $503.7 million, respectively, with carrying values of $375.0 million and $369.3 million, respectively.

(10) INCOME TAXES

The Company's effective income tax rate was 27.3% and 30.1% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively, compared to 26.6% and 25.8% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, respectively. The Company's effective income tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 was less than the applicable statutory rate of 35% primarily as a result of the Company's U.S. tax position. The Company had significant U.S. federal tax net operating loss carryforwards with no recent history of significant U.S. taxable income; therefore, the Company had recorded a valuation allowance against its net U.S. deferred tax assets. Accordingly, in instances when the Company generated pre-tax U.S. GAAP income, no income tax expense was recognized to the extent there were net operating loss carryforwards to offset the pre-tax U.S. GAAP income.

The Company's effective income tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 was higher than the applicable statutory income tax rate of 21% as a result of the enactment into law what is commonly known as the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 (the "Act") and the Act's impact on the Company's U.S. income tax positions at the end of 2017. The most significant provisions of the Act are the transition tax on previously undistributed foreign earnings of foreign subsidiaries, the reduction in the U.S. corporate statutory income tax rate from 35% to 21% beginning on January 1, 2018, and new taxes on certain foreign sourced earnings. As stated above, the Company had recorded a valuation allowance against its net U.S. deferred tax assets. Upon enactment of the Act, the Company expected to utilize its historic U.S. federal tax net operating losses to partially offset the transition tax and released the associated valuation allowance in the fourth quarter of 2017. This change has created additional U.S. tax expense as the Company now recognizes income tax expense on its pre-tax U.S. GAAP income. In addition, the Act's global intangible low-taxed income ("GILTI") provision has subjected the Company's foreign earnings to additional U.S. tax expense.

The SEC staff issued Staff Accounting Bulletin ("SAB") 118, which provides guidance on accounting for the tax effects of the Act. SAB 118 provides a measurement period of up to one year from the Act's enactment date for companies to complete their accounting. In accordance with SAB 118, the Company provided provisional amounts where appropriate which it believes represent a reasonable estimate based on available information and its interpretations of the Act. Further, the Company is allowed to either recognize deferred taxes for temporary differences expected to reverse as GILTI in future years or recognize such taxes as current period expenses when incurred. Due to the complexity of calculating GILTI, the Company has not determined which method it will apply. The Company will continue to evaluate the Act and adjust the provisional amounts as additional information becomes available.

(11) COMMITMENTS

As of June 30, 2018, the Company had $75.8 million of stand-by letters of credit/bank guarantees issued on its behalf, of which $49.0 million are outstanding under the Credit Facility. The remaining stand-by letters of credit/bank guarantees are collateralized by $3.0 million of cash deposits held by the respective issuing banks.

Under certain circumstances, Euronet grants guarantees in support of obligations of subsidiaries. As of June 30, 2018, the Company had granted off balance sheet guarantees for cash in various ATM networks amounting to $16.4 million over the terms of the cash supply agreements and performance guarantees amounting to approximately $30.2 million over the terms of agreements with the customers.

Once each of Euronet's subsidiaries reaches a certain size, it is required under the Credit Facility to provide a guarantee of all or a portion of the outstanding obligations under the Credit Facility depending upon whether the subsidiary is a domestic or foreign entity.

From time to time, the Company enters into agreements with commercial counterparties that contain indemnification provisions, the terms of which may vary depending on the negotiated terms of each respective agreement. The amount of such potential obligations is generally not stated in the agreements. Euronet's liability under such indemnification provisions may be mitigated by relevant insurance coverage and may be subject to time and materiality limitations, monetary caps and other conditions and defenses. Such indemnification obligations include the following:

• In connection with contracts with financial institutions in the EFT Processing Segment, the Company is responsible for damage to ATMs and theft of ATM network cash that, generally, is not recorded on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets. As of June 30, 2018, the balance of cash used in the Company's ATM networks for which the Company was responsible was approximately $451 million. The Company maintains insurance policies to mitigate this exposure;

• In connection with contracts with financial institutions in the EFT Processing Segment, the Company is responsible for losses suffered by its customers and other parties as a result of the breach of its computer systems, including in particular, losses arising from fraudulent transactions made using information stolen through its processing systems. The Company maintains systems of internal controls and insurance policies to mitigate this exposure;

• In connection with the license of proprietary systems to customers, the Company provides certain warranties and infringement indemnities to the licensee, which generally warrant that such systems do not infringe on intellectual property owned by third parties and that the systems will perform in accordance with their specifications;

• Euronet has entered into purchase and service agreements with vendors and consulting agreements with providers of consulting services, pursuant to which the Company has agreed to indemnify certain of such vendors and consultants, respectively, against third-party claims arising from the Company’s use of the vendor’s product or the services of the vendor or consultant;

• In connection with acquisitions and dispositions of subsidiaries, operating units and business assets, the Company has entered into agreements containing indemnification provisions, which can be generally described as follows: (i) in connection with acquisitions of operating units or assets made by Euronet, the Company has agreed to indemnify the seller against third-party claims made against the seller relating to the operating unit or asset and arising after the closing of the transaction, and (ii) in connection with dispositions made by Euronet, Euronet has agreed to indemnify the buyer against damages incurred by the buyer due to the buyer’s reliance on representations and warranties relating to the subject subsidiary, operating unit or business assets in the disposition agreement if such representations or warranties were untrue when made; and

• Euronet has entered into agreements with certain third parties, including banks that provide fiduciary and other services to Euronet or to the Company’s benefit plans. Under such agreements, the Company has agreed to indemnify such service providers for third-party claims relating to carrying out their respective duties under such agreements.

The Company is also required to meet minimum capitalization and cash requirements of various regulatory authorities in the jurisdictions in which the Company has money transfer operations. The Company has obtained surety bonds in compliance with money transfer licensing requirements of the applicable governmental authorities.

To date, the Company is not aware of any significant claims made by the indemnified parties or third parties to guarantee agreements with the Company and, accordingly, no liabilities were recorded as of June 30, 2018 or December 31, 2017.

19

(12) LITIGATION AND CONTINGENCIES

From time to time, the Company is a party to legal or regulatory proceedings arising in the ordinary course of its business. Currently, there are no legal proceedings or regulatory findings that management believes, either individually or in the aggregate, would have a material adverse effect on the Company's consolidated financial condition or results of operations. In accordance with U.S. GAAP, the Company records a liability when it is both probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. These provisions are reviewed at least quarterly and adjusted to reflect the impacts of negotiations, settlements, rulings, advice of legal counsel, and other information and events pertaining to a particular case.

OVERVIEW

COMPANY OVERVIEW, GEOGRAPHIC LOCATIONS AND PRINCIPAL PRODUCTS AND SERVICES

Euronet is a leading electronic payments provider. We offer payment and transaction processing and distribution solutions to financial institutions, retailers, service providers and individual consumers. Our primary product offerings include comprehensive automated teller machine (“ATM”), point-of-sale (“POS”), card outsourcing, card issuing and merchant acquiring services, software solutions, electronic distribution of prepaid mobile airtime and other electronic payment products, foreign currency exchange services and global money transfer services. We operate in the following three segments:

• The EFT Processing Segment, which processes transactions for a network of 41,205 ATMs and approximately 276,000 POS terminals across Europe, the Middle East and Asia Pacific. We provide comprehensive electronic payment solutions consisting of ATM cash withdrawal and deposit services, ATM network participation, outsourced ATM and POS management solutions, credit and debit card outsourcing, dynamic currency conversion ("DCC"), and other value added services. Through this segment, we also offer a suite of integrated electronic financial transaction software solutions for electronic payment and transaction delivery systems.

• The epay Segment, which provides distribution, processing and collection services for prepaid mobile airtime and other electronic payment products. We operate a network of approximately 695,000 POS terminals providing electronic processing of prepaid mobile airtime top-up services and other electronic payment products in Europe, the Middle East, Asia Pacific, the United States and South America. We also provide vouchers and physical gift fulfillment services in Europe.

• The Money Transfer Segment, which provides global consumer-to-consumer money transfer services, primarily under the brand names Ria, IME and xe, and global account-to-account money transfer services under the brand name HiFX. We offer services under the brand names Ria and IME through a network of sending agents, Company-owned stores (primarily in North America, Europe and Malaysia) and Ria branded websites (riamoneytransfer.com and imeremit.com), disbursing money transfers through a worldwide correspondent network that includes approximately 355,000 locations. xe is a provider of foreign currency exchange information and offers money transfer services on its currency data websites (xe.com and x-rates.com). We offer services under the brand name HiFX through HiFX branded websites and HiFX customer service representatives. In addition to money transfers, we also offer customers bill payment services (primarily in the U.S.), payment alternatives such as money orders and prepaid debit cards, comprehensive check cashing services for a wide variety of issued checks, along with competitive foreign currency exchange services and prepaid mobile top-up. Through our HiFM brand, we offer cash management solutions and foreign currency risk management services to small-to-medium sized businesses.

We have six processing centers in Europe, five in Asia Pacific and two in North America. We have 36 principal offices in Europe, 11 in Asia Pacific, nine in North America, three in the Middle East, two in South America and one in Africa. Our executive offices are located in Leawood, Kansas, USA. With approximately 70% of our revenues denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar, any significant changes in foreign currency exchange rates will likely have a significant impact on our results of operations.

SOURCES OF REVENUES AND CASH FLOW

Euronet primarily earns revenues and income from ATM management fees, transaction fees, commissions and foreign currency exchange margin. Each operating segment’s sources of revenues are described below.

EFT Processing Segment — Revenues in the EFT Processing Segment, which represented approximately 31% and 28% of total consolidated revenues for the second quarter and first half of 2018, respectively, are primarily derived from fees charged for transactions made by cardholders on our proprietary network of ATMs, fixed management fees and transaction fees we charge to customers for operating ATMs and processing debit and credit cards under outsourcing and cross-border acquiring agreements, direct access fees, foreign currency exchange margin on DCC transactions, and other value added services such as advertising, prepaid telecommunication recharges, bill payment, and money transfers provided over ATMs. Revenues in this segment are also derived from license fees, professional services and maintenance fees for proprietary application software and sales of related hardware.

22

epay Segment — Revenues in the epay Segment, which represented approximately 27% and 29% of total consolidated revenues for the second quarter and first half of 2018, respectively, are derived from commissions or processing fees received from mobile phone operators for the processing and distribution of prepaid mobile airtime and commissions earned from the distribution of other electronic payment products, vouchers, and physical gifts. The proportion of epay Segment revenues earned from the distribution of prepaid mobile phone time as compared with other electronic products has decreased over time, and non-mobile content now produces approximately 66% of epay Segment revenues. Other electronic payment products offered by this segment include digital content such as music, games and software, as well as other products, including prepaid long distance calling card plans, prepaid Internet plans, prepaid debit cards, gift cards, vouchers, transport payments, lottery payments, bill payment, and money transfer.

Money Transfer Segment — Revenues in the Money Transfer Segment, which represented approximately 42% and 43% of total consolidated revenues for the second quarter and first half of 2018, respectively, are primarily derived from transaction fees, as well as the margin earned from purchasing foreign currency at wholesale exchange rates and selling the foreign currency to customers at retail exchange rates. We have a sending agent network in place comprised of agents, customer service representatives, Company-owned stores, primarily in North America, Europe, and Malaysia, and Ria, xe and HiFX branded websites, along with a worldwide network of correspondent agents, consisting primarily of financial institutions in the transfer destination countries. Sending and correspondent agents each earn fees for cash collection and distribution services, which are recognized as direct operating costs at the time of sale.

The Company offers a money transfer product called Walmart-2-Walmart Money Transfer Service which allows customers to transfer money to and from Walmart stores in the U.S. Our Ria business executes the transfers with Walmart serving as both the sending agent and payout correspondent. Ria earns a lower margin from these transactions than its traditional money transfers; however, the arrangement has added a significant number of transactions to Ria’s business. The agreement with Walmart establishes Ria as the only party through which Walmart will sell U.S. domestic money transfers branded with Walmart marks. The agreement is effective until April 2020. Thereafter, it will automatically renew for subsequent one year terms unless either party provides notice to the contrary. The agreement imposes certain obligations on each party, the most significant being service level requirements by Ria and money transfer compliance requirements by Walmart. Any violation of these requirements by Ria could result in an obligation to indemnify Walmart or termination of the contract by Walmart. However, the agreement allows the parties to resolve disputes by mutual agreement without termination of the agreement.

Corporate Services, Eliminations and Other - In addition to operating in our principal operating segments described above, our “Corporate Services, Eliminations and Other” category includes non-operating activity, certain inter-segment eliminations and the cost of providing corporate and other administrative services to the operating segments, including most share-based compensation expense. These services are not directly identifiable with our reportable operating segments.

OPPORTUNITIES AND CHALLENGES

Our expansion plans and opportunities are focused on eight primary areas:

• increasing the number of ATMs and cash deposit terminals in our independent networks;

• increasing transactions processed on our network of owned and operated ATMs and POS devices;

• signing new outsourced ATM and POS terminal management contracts;

• expanding value added services and other products offered by our EFT Processing Segment, including the sale of DCC, acquiring and other prepaid card services to banks and retailers;

• expanding our epay processing network and portfolio of digital content;

• expanding our money transfer services, cross-currency payment products and bill payment network;

• expanding our cash management solutions and foreign currency risk management services; and

• developing our credit and debit card outsourcing business.

EFT Processing Segment — The continued expansion and development of our EFT Processing Segment business will depend on various factors including, but not necessarily limited to, the following:

• the impact of competition by banks and other ATM operators and service providers in our current target markets;

• the demand for our ATM outsourcing services in our current target markets;

• our ability to develop products or services, including value added services, to drive increases in transactions and revenues;

• the expansion of our various business lines in markets where we operate and in new markets;

23

• our entry into additional card acceptance and ATM management agreements with banks;

• our ability to obtain required licenses in markets we intend to enter or expand services;

• our ability to enter into and renew ATM network cash supply agreements with financial institutions;

• the availability of financing for expansion;

• our ability efficiently to install ATMs contracted under newly awarded outsourcing agreements;

• our ability to renew existing contracts at profitable rates;

• our ability to maintain pricing at current levels or mitigate price reductions in certain markets;

• the impact of changes in rules imposed by international card organizations such as Visa and Mastercard on card transactions on ATMs, including reductions in ATM interchange fees, restrictions on the ability to apply direct access fees and increases in fees charged on DCC transactions;

• the impact of changes in laws and regulations affecting the profitability of our services, including regulation of DCC transactions by the E.U.;

• our ability to expand and sign additional customers for the cross-border merchant processing and acquiring business; and

• the continued development and implementation of our software products and their ability to interact with other leading products.

We consistently evaluate and add prospects to our list of potential ATM outsource customers. However, we cannot predict the increase or decrease in the number of ATMs we manage under outsourcing agreements because this depends largely on the willingness of banks to enter into outsourcing contracts with us. Due to the thorough internal reviews and extensive negotiations conducted by existing and prospective banking customers in choosing outsource vendors, the process of entering into or renewing outsourcing agreements can take several months. The process is further complicated by the legal and regulatory considerations of local countries. These agreements tend to cover large numbers of ATMs, so significant increases and decreases in our pool of managed ATMs could result from the acquisition or termination of one or more of these management contracts. Therefore, the timing of both current and new contract revenues is uncertain and unpredictable.

Software products are an integral part of our product lines, and our investment in research, development, delivery and customer support reflects our ongoing commitment to an expanded customer base.

epay Segment — The continued expansion and development of the epay Segment business will depend on various factors, including, but not necessarily limited to, the following:

• our ability to maintain and renew existing agreements, and to negotiate new agreements in additional markets with mobile operators, digital content providers, agent financial institutions and retailers;

• our ability to use existing expertise and relationships with mobile operators, digital content providers and retailers to our advantage;

• the continued use of third-party providers such as ourselves to supply electronic processing solutions for existing and additional digital content;

• the development of mobile phone networks in the markets in which we do business and the increase in the number of mobile phone users;

• the overall pace of growth in the prepaid mobile phone and digital content market, including consumer shifts between prepaid and postpaid services;

• our market share of the retail distribution capacity;

• the development of new technologies that may compete with POS distribution of prepaid mobile airtime and other products;

• the level of commission that is paid to the various intermediaries in the electronic payment distribution chain;

• our ability to fully recover monies collected by retailers;

• our ability to add new and differentiated products in addition to those offered by mobile operators;

• our ability to develop and effectively market additional value added services;

24

• our ability to take advantage of cross-selling opportunities with our EFT Processing and Money Transfer Segments, including providing money transfer services through our distribution network; and

• the availability of financing for further expansion.

In all of the markets in which we operate, we are experiencing significant competition which will impact the rate at which we may be able to grow organically. Competition among prepaid mobile airtime and digital content distributors results in the increase of commissions paid to retailers and increases in retailer attrition rates. To grow, we must capture market share from other prepaid mobile airtime and digital content distributors, offer a superior product offering and demonstrate the value of a global network. In certain markets in which we operate, many of the factors that may contribute to rapid growth (growth in electronic payment products, expansion of our network of retailers and access to products of mobile operators and other content providers) remain present.

Money Transfer Segment — The continued expansion and development of our Money Transfer Segment business will depend on various factors, including, but not necessarily limited to, the following:

• the continued growth in worker migration and employment opportunities;

• the mitigation of economic and political factors that have had an adverse impact on money transfer volumes, such as changes in the economic sectors in which immigrants work and the developments in immigration policies in the countries in which we operate;

• the continuation of the trend of increased use of electronic money transfer and bill payment services among high-income individuals, immigrant workers and the unbanked population in our markets;

• our ability to maintain our agent and correspondent networks;

• our ability to offer our products and services or develop new products and services at competitive prices to drive increases in transactions;

• the development of new technologies that may compete with our money transfer network, and our ability to acquire, develop and implement new technologies;

• the expansion of our services in markets where we operate and in new markets;

• our ability to strengthen our brands;

• our ability to fund working capital requirements;

• our ability to recover from agents funds collected from customers and our ability to recover advances made to correspondents;

• our ability to maintain compliance with the regulatory requirements of the jurisdictions in which we operate or plan to operate;

• our ability to take advantage of cross-selling opportunities with the epay Segment, including providing prepaid services through our stores and agents worldwide;

• our ability to leverage our banking and merchant/retailer relationships to expand money transfer corridors to Europe, Asia and Africa, including high growth corridors to Central and Eastern European countries;

• the availability of financing for further expansion;

• the ability to maintain banking relationships necessary for us to service our customers;

• our ability to successfully expand our agent network in Europe using our payment institution licenses under the Payment Services Directive and in the United States;

• our ability to provide additional value-added products under the xe brand, and;

• the considerations regarding the use of our various trade names within the money transfer business.

For all segments, our continued expansion may involve additional acquisitions that could divert our resources and management time and require integration of new assets with our existing networks and services. Our ability to effectively manage our growth has required us to expand our operating systems and employee base, particularly at the management level, which has added incremental operating costs. An inability to continue to effectively manage expansion could have a material adverse effect on our business, growth, financial condition or results of operations. Inadequate technology and resources would impair

25

our ability to maintain current processing technology and efficiencies, as well as deliver new and innovative services to compete in the marketplace.

Impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates

Our revenues and local expenses are recorded in the functional currencies of our operating entities and translated into U.S. dollars for financial reporting purposes; therefore, amounts we earn outside the U.S. are negatively impacted by a stronger U.S. dollar and positively impacted by a weaker U.S. dollar. Considering the results by country and the associated functional currency, we estimate that our reported consolidated operating income for the second quarter and first half of 2018 was 6% and 7% more, respectively, due to the changes in foreign currency exchange rates when compared to the same periods of 2017.

To provide further perspective on the impact of foreign currency exchange rates, the following table shows the changes in values relative to the U.S. dollar of the currencies of the countries in which we have our most significant operations:

	Average Translation Rate Three Months Ended June 30,				Increase (Decrease) Percent		Average Translation Rate Six Months Ended June 30,				Increase Percent

Revenues

EFT Processing Segment total revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 were $194.9 million and $330.6 million, respectively, an increase of $38.9 million or 25% and $68.9 million or 26% as compared to the same periods in 2017. The increase in total revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 were primarily due to an increase in the number of ATMs under management in Europe and the impact of the U.S. dollar weakening against key foreign currencies. Specifically, the increase in the number of ATMs contributed to increases in the number of transactions processed, including dynamic currency conversion ("DCC") transactions and direct access fees. The increases for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 were also impacted by the recovery from a cash shortage in India due to the demonetization initiated in the fourth quarter of 2016, which carried over into the first half of 2017. In the second half of 2017, the India cash supply returned to near pre-demonetization levels. Foreign currency movements increased total revenues by approximately $10.7 million and $25.1 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively, as compared to the same periods in 2017. These increases were partly offset by a price reduction granted in December 2017 on a POS processing contract in exchange for a contract extension.

Average monthly revenues per ATM were $1,604 and $1,410 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively, compared to $1,410 and $1,221 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, respectively. Revenues per transaction were $0.29 for the second quarter and $0.25 for the first half of 2018, respectively, compared to $0.27 for the second quarter and and $0.24 for the first half of 2017, respectively. The increases in average monthly revenues per ATM and revenue per transaction were primarily the result of the impact of the weakening of the U.S. dollar against key foreign currencies.

Direct operating costs

EFT Processing Segment direct operating costs were $96.3 million and $178.2 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively, an increase of $18.7 million or 24% and $38.4 million or 28% as compared to the same periods in 2017. Direct operating costs in the EFT Processing Segment consist primarily of site rental fees, cash delivery costs, cash supply costs, maintenance, insurance, telecommunications, data center operations-related personnel, as well as the processing centers’ facility-related costs and other processing center-related expenses and commissions paid to retail merchants, banks and card processors involved with POS DCC transactions. The increases in direct operating costs for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 were primarily due to an increase in the number of ATMs under management, particularly our independent ATM

28

network which has more seasonal revenue generation and the impact of the U.S. dollar weakening against key foreign currencies.

Gross profit

Gross profit, which is calculated as revenues less direct operating costs, was $98.6 million and $152.4 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively, compared to $78.3 million and $122.0 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, respectively . The increases in gross profit were primarily due to the growth in revenues from the increases in ATMs under management, DCC transactions processed and the net impact of the U.S. dollar weakening against key foreign currencies. Gross profit as a percentage of revenues (“gross margin”) was 50.6% and 46.1% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively, as compared to 50.2% and 46.6% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017. The gross margins were relatively consistent when compared to the same periods in 2017.

Salaries and benefits

Salaries and benefits expense increased $3.5 million or 22% and $6.7 million or 23% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2017. The increases in salaries and benefits were primarily attributable to additional headcount to support an increase in the number of ATMs and POS devices under management and the impact of the U.S. dollar weakening against key foreign currencies. As a percentage of revenues, these costs decreased to 9.8% and 10.9% for the second quarter and first half of 2018, respectively, compared to 10.0% and 11.2% for the second quarter and first half of 2017, respectively. The decreases were primarily due to the growth in revenues earned from DCC and other value added service transactions on our ATMs under management, which require minimal incremental support costs.

Selling, general and administrative

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 were $10.2 million and $19.3 million, respectively, an increase of $2.3 million or 29% and $4.2 million or 28% as compared to the same periods in 2017. The increases in selling, general and administrative expenses were primarily due to an increase in costs to support the growth in the business and the impact of the U.S. dollar weakening against key foreign currencies. As a percentage of revenues, selling, general and administrative expenses were 5.2% and 5.8% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively, compared to 5.1% and 5.8% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, respectively.

Depreciation and amortization

Depreciation and amortization expense increased $3.2 million and $7.6 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2017. The increases were primarily attributable to the deployment of additional ATMs under management and software assets as well as the impact of the U.S. dollar weakening against key foreign currencies. As a percentage of revenues, depreciation and amortization expense was 8.4% and 9.9% for the second quarter and first half of 2018, respectively, as compared to 8.5% and 9.6% for the same periods of 2017.

Operating income

EFT Processing Segment operating income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 was $52.9 million and $64.5 million, respectively, an increase of $13.6 million or 35% and $14.2 million or 28% as compared to the same periods in 2017. EFT Processing Segment operating income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 increased primarily due to the increases in DCC transactions and direct access fees.

Operating income as a percentage of revenues (“operating margin”) was 27.2% for the second quarter and 19.5% for the first half of 2018 compared to 25.2% for the second quarter and 19.2% for the first half of 2017. The increases in operating margins were primarily due to higher operating revenues partially offset by expenses incurred to support the increased revenues and additional ATMs under management. Operating income per transaction was $0.08 for the second quarter and $0.05 for the first half of 2018 as compared to $0.07 and $0.05 for the same periods of 2017.

Revenues

epay Segment total revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 were $166.5 million and $343.3 million, respectively, an increase of $2.3 million or 1% and $15.0 million or 5% as compared to the same periods in 2017. The increases in total revenues were primarily due to the impact of the U.S. dollar weakening against key foreign currencies. Foreign currency movements increased total revenues by approximately $7.0 million and $15.0 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2017. Revenues also increased due to an increase in gifts fulfilled by our cadooz subsidiary and an increase in the number of non-mobile transactions processed in Germany. The increase in total revenues was partially offset by the ASC 606 adjustment and a decrease in prepaid mobile transactions processed in the U.S., the U.K. and Australia due to competitive pressures on prepaid mobile carriers.

Revenues per transaction were $0.63 for the second quarter and $0.66 for the first half of 2018 compared to $0.55 and $0.54 for the same periods in 2017. The increases in revenues per transaction were primarily due to the loss of a high-volume, low-margin customer in the Middle East and net impact of the U.S. dollar weakening against key foreign currencies and revenue growth from non-mobile transactions processed, for which we generally earn higher revenues per transaction than mobile transactions.

Direct operating costs

epay Segment direct operating costs were $125.4 million and $260.3 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively, an increase of $1.3 million and $10.1 million as compared to the same periods in 2017. Direct operating costs in our epay Segment include the commissions we pay to retail merchants for the distribution and sale of prepaid mobile airtime and other prepaid products, expenses incurred to operate POS terminals and the cost of vouchers sold and physical gifts fulfilled. The increases in direct operating costs were primarily due to the ASC 606 adjustment and net impact of the U.S. dollar weakening against key foreign currencies. Direct operating costs also increased as a result of an increase in non-mobile transactions processed in Germany.

Gross profit

Gross profit was $41.0 million and $83.0 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively, as compared to $40.0 million and $78.1 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, respectively. The increases were primarily due to the net impact of the U.S. dollar weakening against key foreign currencies, growth in non-mobile transactions processed in Germany and an increase in vouchers distributed by our cadooz subsidiary, partly offset by a decrease in prepaid mobile transactions processed in certain markets.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, the gross margin was essentially flat compared to the same periods in the prior year. Gross margin was 24.7% and 24.2% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively as compared to 24.4% and 23.8% for the same periods in 2017.

Salaries and benefits

Salaries and benefits expense increased $1.3 million or 10% and $3.1 million or 12% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2017. The increases were mainly driven by the impact of the U.S. dollar weakening against key foreign currencies and higher headcount in an effort to grow the segment. As a percentage of revenues, salaries and benefits were 8.6% and 8.4% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively, as compared to 8.0% and 7.8% for the same periods in 2017.

Selling, general and administrative

Selling, general and administrative expenses were $8.5 million and $17.2 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, a decrease of 11% and 7% as compared to the same periods in 2017. The decreases in selling, general and administrative expenses were mainly due to cost control efforts. As a percentage of revenues, selling, general and administrative expenses were 5.1% and 5.0% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 compared to 5.8% and 5.6% for the same periods in 2017.

Depreciation and amortization

Depreciation and amortization expense primarily represents depreciation of POS terminals we place in retail stores and the amortization of acquired intangible assets. Depreciation and amortization expense was $1.9 million and $3.8 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively, a decrease of 29% and 28% as compared to the same periods in 2017. The decreases were largely due to certain intangible assets becoming fully amortized in the third quarter of 2017, partly offset by the impact of the U.S. dollar weakening against key foreign currencies. As a percentage of revenues, depreciation and amortization expense was 1.1% for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, and 1.6% for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2017.

Operating income

epay Segment operating income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 was $16.3 million and $33.2 million, respectively, an increase of $1.5 million and $4.5 million as compared to the same periods in 2017. Operating income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 improved as a result of the net impact of the U.S. dollar weakening against key foreign currencies and increased gross profit from the distribution of more non-mobile products and vouchers in Germany, along with operating cost controls.

Operating margin increased to 9.8% and 9.7% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, from 9.0% and 8.7% for the same periods in 2017. The increases were mainly due to an increase in the percentage of revenues from non-mobile products which earn a higher margin than mobile transactions. Operating income per transaction increased to $0.06 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 from $0.05 for the same periods in 2017. The increases were primarily due to the loss of a high-volume, low-margin customer in the Middle East and the net impact of the U.S. dollar weakening against key foreign currencies.

The increases in total revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 were primarily due to increases in the number of money transfers processed, driven by growth in the U.S. and foreign agent and correspondent payout networks, and the net impact of the U.S. dollar weakening against key foreign currencies.

Revenues per transaction increased to $9.70 and $9.82 for the second quarter and first half of 2018 from $9.52 and $9.68 for the same periods in 2017. The increases were primarily due to the net impact of the U.S. dollar weakening against key foreign currencies.

Direct operating costs

Money Transfer Segment direct operating costs were $140.7 million and $268.1 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively, an increase of $24.5 million or 21% and $43.0 million or 19% as compared to the same periods in 2017. Direct operating costs in the Money Transfer Segment primarily consist of commissions paid to agents who originate money transfers on our behalf and correspondent agents who disburse funds to the customers’ destination beneficiaries, together with less significant costs, such as bank depository fees. The increases in direct operating costs for the three and six months of 2018 were primarily due to growth in the number of money transfer transactions processed in both the U.S. and foreign markets.

Gross profit

Gross profit was $121.1 million and $232.5 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively, as compared to $100.9 million and $196.0 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, respectively. The increases in gross profit were primarily due to growth in the number of money transfer transactions processed in both the U.S. and foreign markets and the impact of the U.S. dollar weakening against key foreign currencies.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, gross margin remained flat at 46.3% and 46.4%, respectively, as compared to the same periods in the 2017.

Salaries and benefits

Salaries and benefits expense increased $6.8 million or 16% and $15.3 million or 19% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively, as compared to the same periods in 2017. The increases in salaries and benefits were primarily due to the expansion of our operations in the U.S. and foreign markets and the net impact of the U.S. dollar weakening against key foreign currencies. As a percentage of revenues, salaries and benefits were 18.8% and 19.3% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively, as compared to 19.5% and 19.3% for the same periods in 2017.

32

Selling, general, and administrative

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 were $31.4 million and $61.1 million, respectively, an increase of $5.0 million or 19%, and $11.9 million or 24% as compared to the same periods in 2017. The increases were primarily due to expenses incurred to support the growth of our money transfer services in both the U.S. and foreign markets along with the net impact of the U.S. dollar weakening against key foreign currencies.

As a percentage of revenues, selling, general and administrative expenses were 12.0% and 12.2% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively, as compared to 12.2% and 11.7% for the same periods in 2017. For the second quarter of 2018, this was primarily due to increases in the number of money transfers processed, which did not require similar increases in support costs. For the first half of 2018, the increase in selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenues was primarily attributable to the increased support costs to expand the business.

Depreciation and amortization

Depreciation and amortization primarily represents amortization of acquired intangible assets and depreciation of money transfer terminals, computers and software, leasehold improvements and office equipment. Depreciation and amortization expense increased $0.7 million or 10% and $1.3 million or 9%, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively, as compared to the same periods in 2017, largely due to the impact of the U.S. dollar weakening against key foreign currencies.

As a percentage of revenues, depreciation and amortization expense was 3.0% for the second quarter and 3.2% for the first half of 2018 as compared to 3.3% and 3.5% for the same periods of 2017. The decreases were primarily due to certain intangible assets becoming fully amortized.

Operating income

Money Transfer Segment operating income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 was $32.6 million and $59.1 million, respectively, an increase of $7.7 million or 31% and $8.1 million or 16% as compared to the same periods of 2017. Operating income for the three months ended June 30, 2018 increased primarily due to the growth in the number of money transfers processed and the net impact of the U.S. dollar weakening against key foreign currencies, partly offset by the additional salaries and benefits and other costs incurred and the reduced rates for Walmart-2-Walmart transfer services.

As a percentage of revenues, operating margin was 12.5% and 11.8% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively, as compared to 11.5% and 12.1% for the same periods in 2017. Operating income per transaction increased to $1.21 for the second quarter and decreased to $1.16 for the first half of 2018 from $1.09 and $1.17 for the same periods in 2017. Operating margin and operating income per transaction increased in the second quarter of 2018 when compared to the same period of 2017 primarily due to the growth in the number of money transfers processed. For the first half of 2018, operating margin and operating income per transaction decreased when compared to the same period of 2017 mainly due to the additional salaries and benefits and other costs incurred.

Corporate operating expenses

Overall, operating expenses for Corporate Services were $11.5 million and $20.9 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, a decrease of 7% and 5% as compared to the same periods in 2017. The decreases were primarily attributable to a decrease in professional services and other costs incurred in connection with the proposed acquisition of MoneyGram International, Inc. that occurred in the prior year but not in the current period. Partly offsetting this decrease in the second quarter of 2018 was an increase in bonus expenses due to our improved operating results compared to targets.

Interest income

The decrease in interest income for the first half of June 30, 2018 compared to the same period in 2017 was primarily due to the interest earned on a tax refund received in India in the first quarter of 2017 which did not occur in the current period.

Interest expense

The increases in interest expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 compared to the same periods in 2017 were primarily related to additional borrowings throughout the second quarter of 2018 to fund the operating cash for our Independent ATM Deployed (“IAD”) networks and higher interest rates as compared to the same periods in 2017.

Foreign currency exchange (loss) gain, net

Foreign currency exchange activity includes gains and losses on certain foreign currency exchange derivative contracts and the impact of remeasurement of assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies. Assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the local currency of each of our subsidiaries give rise to foreign currency exchange gains and losses. Foreign currency exchange gains and losses that result from remeasurement of these assets and liabilities are recorded in net

34

income. The majority of our foreign currency exchange gains or losses are due to the remeasurement of intercompany loans which are not considered a long-term investment in nature and are in a currency other than the functional currency of one of the parties to the loan. For example, we make intercompany loans based in euros from our corporate division, which is composed of U.S. dollar functional currency entities, to certain European entities that use the euro as the functional currency. As the U.S. dollar strengthens against the euro, foreign currency exchange losses are recognized by our corporate entities because the number of euros to be received in settlement of the loans decreases in U.S. dollar terms. Conversely, in this example, in periods where the U.S. dollar weakens, our corporate entities will record foreign currency exchange gains.

We recorded net foreign currency exchange losses of $20.7 million and $18.8 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively, as compared to net foreign currency exchange gains of $11.1 million and $12.9 million for the same periods in 2017. These realized and unrealized foreign currency exchange losses and gains reflect the fluctuation in the value of the U.S. dollar against the currencies of the countries in which we operated during the respective periods.

INCOME TAX EXPENSE

The Company's effective income tax rate was 27.3% and 30.1% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively, as compared to 26.6% and 25.8% for the same periods in 2017. The Company's effective income tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 was less than the applicable statutory income tax rate of 35% primarily as a result of the Company's U.S. income tax position. The Company had significant U.S. federal tax net operating loss carryforwards with no recent history of significant U.S. taxable income; therefore, the Company had recorded a valuation allowance against its net U.S. deferred tax assets. Accordingly, in instances when the Company generated pre-tax U.S. GAAP income, no income tax expense was recognized to the extent there were net operating loss carryforwards to offset the income. The Company's effective income tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 was higher than the applicable statutory income tax rate of 21% as a result of the enactment of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 (the "Act") and its impact on the Company's U.S. income tax positions at the end of 2017. The most significant provisions of the Act are the transition tax on previously undistributed foreign earnings of foreign subsidiaries, the reduction in the U.S. corporate statutory income tax rate from 35% to 21% beginning on January 1, 2018, and new taxes on certain foreign sourced earnings. As stated above, the Company had recorded a valuation allowance against its net U.S. deferred tax assets. After enactment of the Act, the Company expected to utilize its U.S. federal net operating losses to partially offset the transition tax and released the associated valuation allowance in the prior year. This change has created additional U.S. tax expense as the Company will now recognize income tax expense on its pre-tax U.S. GAAP income. In addition, the Act's GILTI provision has created additional U.S. tax expense on foreign earnings. The increase in the effective tax rate for the first half of 2018 compared to the same period in 2017 is largely due to the Act's impact on the Company's U.S. income tax positions. See Note 10 to the financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this report for additional information related to income taxes.

NET INCOME ATTRIBUTABLE TO NONCONTROLLING INTERESTS

Noncontrolling interests represents the elimination of net income or loss attributable to the minority shareholders’ portion of the following consolidated subsidiaries that are not wholly owned:

Subsidiary	Percent Owned	Segment - Country
Movilcarga	95%	epay - Spain
Euronet China	85%	EFT - China
Euronet Pakistan	70%	EFT - Pakistan
Universal Solution Providers (1)	100%	EFT - UAE

______________

(1) The Company purchased the 49% noncontrolling interest during the three months ended September 30, 2017.

NET INCOME ATTRIBUTABLE TO EURONET

Net income attributable to Euronet was $43.7 million and $70.1 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively, a decrease of $7.6 million and $9.4 million as compared to the same periods in 2017. The decrease in net income for the first half of 2018 was primarily due to a $31.6 million increase in net foreign currency exchange loss, a $2.5 million increase in income tax expense, a decrease in interest income of $0.9 million and an increase in interest expense of $2.1 million, partly offset by an increase in operating income of $27.9 million.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Working capital

As of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, we had working capital, which is calculated as the difference between total current assets and total current liabilities, of $326.7 million and $482.5 million, respectively. Our ratio of current assets to current liabilities at June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 was 1.18 and 1.34, respectively. The decrease in the current ratio is due to the credit facility being recorded as current liability as of June 30, 2018.

We require substantial working capital to finance operations. In the Money Transfer Segment, we fund the payout of the majority of our consumer-to-consumer money transfer services before receiving the benefit of amounts collected from customers by agents. Working capital needs increase due to weekends and international banking holidays. As a result, we may report more or less working capital for the Money Transfer Segment based solely upon the day on which the reporting period ends. The epay Segment produces positive working capital, but much of it is restricted in connection with the administration of its customer collection and vendor remittance activities. In our EFT Processing Segment, we obtain a significant portion of the cash required to operate our ATMs through various cash supply arrangements, the amount of which is not recorded on Euronet's Consolidated Balance Sheets. However, in certain countries, we fund the cash required to operate our ATM network from borrowings under our revolving credit facilities and cash flows from operations. As of June 30, 2018, we had approximately $725 million of our own cash in use or designated for use in our ATM network, which is recorded in cash and cash equivalents and trade accounts receivable, for ATM withdrawals pending settlement, on the Consolidated Balance Sheet.

We had cash and cash equivalents of $1,163.4 million at June 30, 2018, of which $969.8 million was held outside of the United States and is expected to be indefinitely reinvested for continued use in foreign operations. Repatriation of these assets to the U.S. could have negative tax consequences.

The following table identifies cash and cash equivalents provided by/(used in) our operating, investing and financing activities for the six month periods ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 (in thousands):

	Six Months Ended June 30,
Liquidity	2018			2017
Cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash provided by (used in):
Operating activities	$	69,304		$	103,241
Investing activities	(68,990		)	(50,628		)
Financing activities	360,922			253,575
Effect of foreign currency exchange rate changes on cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash	(25,471		)	41,421
Increase in cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash	$	335,765		$	347,609

Operating activity cash flow

Cash flows provided by operating activities were $69.3 million for the first half of 2018 compared to $103.2 million for the first half of 2017. The decrease is primarily due to fluctuations in working capital mainly associated with the timing of the settlement processes with content providers in the epay Segment and with correspondents in the Money Transfer Segment, partly offset by improved operating results.

Investing activity cash flow

Cash flows used in investing activities were $69.0 million for the first half of 2018 compared to $50.6 million for the first half of 2017. The increase is primarily due to acquisitions and increased capital expenditures mainly related to our ATM network expansion. During the first half of 2018, we used $12.9 million for business acquisitions. During the first half of 2018, we used $53.4 million for purchases of property and equipment compared to $47.9 million during the first half of 2017. Cash used for software development and other investing activities totaled $2.8 million and $2.7 million for the first half of 2018 and 2017, respectively.

36

Financing activity cash flow

Cash flows provided by financing activities were $360.9 million for the first half of 2018 compared to $253.6 million for the first half of 2017. Our financing activities for the first half of 2018 consisted of net borrowings of $536.7 million compared to net borrowings of $253.3 million for the first half of 2017. The increase in net borrowings for the first three months of 2018 compared to the same period of 2017 was the result of additional borrowings under the credit facilities to fund the operating cash of our IAD networks. Additionally, we used $3.3 million and $2.4 million during the first half of 2018 and 2017, respectively, for capital lease repayments. We repurchased $176.7 million and $2.3 million of our stock during the first half of 2018 and 2017, respectively. During the first half of 2018, we repurchased $175.0 million of our shares and paid $1.7 million for the amount of payroll taxes represented by the common stock withheld on restricted stock vestings and stock option exercises compared to $2.3 million for the same period of 2017. We received proceeds from stock option exercises of $4.1 million and $4.6 million for the first half of 2018 and 2017, respectively.

Other sources of capital

Credit Facility - As of June 30, 2018, we had a $675 million senior secured credit facility that matures on April 9, 2019 (the "Credit Facility") consisting of a $590 million revolving credit facility, a $10 million India revolving credit facility and a $75 million term loan ("Term Loan A"), which has been reduced to $45.0 million through principal amortization payments.

The revolving credit facility allows for borrowings in U.S. dollars, euros, British pounds, Australian dollars and/or Indian rupees and contains a $200 million sublimit for the issuance of letters of credit and a $25 million sublimit for swingline loans. We use the revolving credit facility primarily to fund working capital requirements which are expected to increase as we expand the Money Transfer business and our independent ATM network. Based on our current projected working capital requirements, we anticipate that our revolving credit facility will be sufficient to fund our short-term working capital needs.

The Credit Facility expires in April 2019 and we are in the process of evaluating replacement arrangements. While we cannot provide assurances that we will be able to obtain a favorable replacement for the Credit Facility, based on consultations to date, we believe that we will be able to obtain a replacement arrangement with greater borrowing capacity on terms similar to the current Credit Facility. We currently expect to complete the transaction before September 30, 2018.

As of June 30, 2018, fees and interest on borrowings varied based upon the Company's consolidated total leverage ratio (as defined in the Credit Facility) and are based, in the case of letter of credit fees, on a margin, and in the case of interest, on a margin over LIBOR or a margin over the base rate, as selected by us, with the applicable margin ranging from 1.375% to 2.375% for LIBOR loans and 0.375% to 1.375% for base rate loans.

As of June 30, 2018, we had borrowings of $45.0 million outstanding under the term loan. We had $242.8 million of borrowings and $49.0 million of stand-by letters of credit outstanding under the revolving credit facility as of June 30, 2018. The remaining $308.2 million under the revolving credit facility was available for borrowing based upon the borrowing base and financial covenants in our Credit Facility. As of June 30, 2018, the weighted average interest rates under the revolving credit facility and Term Loan A were 3.01% and 3.47%, respectively, excluding amortization of deferred financing costs.

Convertible debt - We have $402.5 million in principal amount of Convertible Senior Notes due 2044 (“Convertible Notes”). The Convertible Notes have an interest rate of 1.5% per annum payable semi-annually in April and October, and are convertible into shares of Euronet Common Stock at a conversion price of approximately $72.18 per share if certain conditions are met (relating to the closing prices of Euronet Common Stock exceeding certain thresholds for specified periods). No conversion conditions are currently in effect.

The Convertible Notes were convertible during the fourth quarter of 2017, but no holders exercised their conversion rights. We believe this was primarily due to the fair value of the Convertible Notes exceeding their conversion value. Should any conversion condition become effective and should any holders exercise their conversion rights, we believe our capital resources are sufficient to satisfy any conversion.

Additionally, holders of the Convertible Notes have the option to require us to purchase their notes at par on October 1, 2020, and have additional options to require us to purchase their notes at par on October 1, 2024, 2029, 2034, and 2039, or upon a change in control of the Company. In connection with the issuance of the Convertible Notes, we recorded $10.7 million in debt issuance costs, which are being amortized through October 1, 2020.

ATM Facility - On May 11, 2018, we entered into a short-term credit facility in the amount of $300.0 million for the sole purpose of providing cash for our ATM network. Interest is charged on this financing on an annual basis at the Overnight LIBOR rate plus 1.75%. The facility expires on November 30, 2018. The weighted average interest rate for borrowings under the ATM credit facility was 3.5% for the second quarter of 2018.

37

Other debt obligations - Certain of our subsidiaries also have available credit lines and overdraft facilities to generally supplement short-term working capital requirements. As of June 30, 2018, there was $32.5 million outstanding under these other obligation arrangements. Short-term debt obligations, as of June 30, 2018 were primarily comprised of $300.0 million in principal outstanding under the ATM facility, $242.8 million in principal outstanding under the revolving credit facility, the $45.0 million Term Loan A and $31.0 million of other obligation arrangements payments due in the next twelve months.

Other uses of capital

Capital expenditures and needs - Total capital expenditures, including capital lease expenditures, for the first half of 2018 were $57.4 million. These capital expenditures were made primarily for the purchase of ATMs to expand our independent ATM network in Europe, the purchase and installation of ATMs in key under-penetrated markets, the purchase of POS terminals for the epay and Money Transfer Segments, and office, data center and company store computer equipment and software. Total capital expenditures for 2018 are currently estimated to range from approximately $110 million to $135 million.

At current and projected cash flow levels, we anticipate that cash generated from operations, together with cash on hand and amounts available under our revolving credit facility and other existing and potential future financing sources, will be sufficient to meet our debt, leasing and capital expenditure obligations. If our capital resources are not sufficient to meet these obligations, we will seek to refinance our debt and/or issue additional equity under terms acceptable to us. However, we can offer no assurances that we will be able to obtain favorable terms for the refinancing of any of our debt or other obligations or for the issuance of additional equity.

Inflation and functional currencies

Generally, the countries in which we operate have experienced low and stable inflation in recent years. Therefore, the local currency in each of these markets is the functional currency. Currently, we do not believe that inflation will have a significant effect on our results of operations or financial position. We continually review inflation and the functional currency in each of the countries where we operate.

OFF BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

On occasion, we grant guarantees of the obligations of our subsidiaries and we sometimes enter into agreements with unaffiliated third parties that contain indemnification provisions, the terms of which may vary depending on the negotiated terms of each respective agreement. Our liability under such indemnification provisions may be subject to time and materiality limitations, monetary caps and other conditions and defenses. As of June 30, 2018, there were no material changes from the disclosure in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017. To date, we are not aware of any significant claims made by the indemnified parties or parties to whom we have provided guarantees on behalf of our subsidiaries and, accordingly, no liabilities have been recorded as of June 30, 2018. See also Note 11, Commitments, to the unaudited consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this report.

CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS

As of June 30, 2018, there have been no material changes outside the ordinary course of business in our future contractual obligations from the amounts reported within our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017, other than those resulting from changes in the amount of outstanding debt discussed in the Liquidity and Capital Resources section.

38

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Interest rate risk

As of June 30, 2018, our total debt outstanding was $995.3 million. Of this amount, $375.0 million, net of debt discounts, or 38% of our total debt obligations, relates to our Convertible Notes that have a fixed coupon rate. Our $402.5 million principal amount of Convertible Notes, issued in October 2014, accrue cash interest at a rate of 1.5% of the principal amount per annum. Based on quoted market prices, as of June 30, 2018, the fair value of our fixed rate Convertible Notes was $514.3 million, compared to a carrying value of $375.0 million. Interest expense for these notes, including accretion and amortization of deferred debt issuance costs, has a weighted average interest rate of 4.7% annually. Additionally, $587.8 million, or 59% of our total debt obligations, relates to debt borrowings under our Credit Facility and ATM facility. If we were to maximize the potential borrowings available under the revolving credit facility and maintain these borrowings for one year, a 1% (100 basis points) increase in the applicable interest rate would result in additional annual interest expense to the Company of approximately $6.0 million.

The remaining $32.5 million, or 3%, of our total debt obligations, is related to borrowings by certain subsidiaries to fund, from time to time, working capital requirements. These arrangements generally are due within one year and accrue interest at variable rates.

Additionally, as of June 30, 2018, we had approximately $14.4 million of capitalized leases with fixed payment and interest terms that expire between 2018 and 2022.

Our excess cash is invested in instruments with original maturities of three months or less or in certificates of deposit that may be withdrawn at any time without penalty; therefore, as investments mature and are reinvested, the amount we earn will increase or decrease with changes in the underlying short-term interest rates.

Foreign currency exchange rate risk

For the first half of 2018, approximately 70% of our revenues were generated in non-U.S. dollar countries and we expect to continue generating a significant portion of our revenues in countries with currencies other than the U.S. dollar.

We are particularly vulnerable to fluctuations in exchange rates of the U.S. dollar to the currencies of countries in which we have significant operations, primarily the euro, British pound, Australian dollar, Polish zloty, Indian rupee, New Zealand dollar, Malaysian ringgit and Hungarian forint. As of June 30, 2018, we estimate that a 10% fluctuation in these foreign currency exchange rates would have the combined annualized effect on reported net income and working capital of approximately $125 million to $130 million. This effect is estimated by applying a 10% adjustment factor to our non-U.S. dollar results from operations, intercompany loans that generate foreign currency exchange gains or losses and working capital balances that require translation from the respective functional currency to the U.S. dollar reporting currency.

Additionally, we have other non-current, non-U.S. dollar assets and liabilities on our balance sheet that are translated to the U.S. dollar during consolidation. These items primarily represent goodwill and intangible assets recorded in connection with acquisitions in countries other than the U.S. We estimate that a 10% fluctuation in foreign currency exchange rates would have a non-cash impact on total comprehensive income of approximately $100 million to $105 million as a result of the change in value of these items during translation to the U.S. dollar. For the fluctuations described above, a strengthening U.S. dollar produces a financial loss, while a weakening U.S. dollar produces a financial gain.

We believe this quantitative measure has inherent limitations and does not take into account any governmental actions or changes in either customer purchasing patterns or our financing or operating strategies. Because a majority of our revenues and expenses is incurred in the functional currencies of our international operating entities, the profits we earn in foreign currencies are positively impacted by a weakening of the U.S. dollar and negatively impacted by a strengthening of the U.S. dollar. Additionally, our debt obligations are primarily in U.S. dollars; therefore, as foreign currency exchange rates fluctuate, the amount available for repayment of debt will also increase or decrease.

We use derivatives to minimize our exposures related to changes in foreign currency exchange rates and to facilitate foreign currency risk management services by writing derivatives to customers. Derivatives are used to manage the overall market risk associated with foreign currency exchange rates; however, we do not perform the extensive record-keeping required to account for the derivative transactions as hedges. Due to the relatively short duration of the derivative contracts, we use the derivatives primarily as economic hedges. Since we do not designate foreign currency derivatives as hedging instruments pursuant to the accounting standards, we record gains and losses on foreign exchange derivatives in earnings in the period of change.

39

A majority of our consumer-to-consumer money transfer operations involves receiving and disbursing different currencies, in which we earn a foreign currency spread based on the difference between buying currency at wholesale exchange rates and selling the currency to consumers at retail exchange rates. We enter into foreign currency forward and cross-currency swap contracts to minimize exposure related to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. The changes in fair value related to these contracts are recorded in Foreign currency exchange (loss) gain, net on the Consolidated Statements of Income. As of June 30, 2018, we had foreign currency derivative contracts outstanding with a notional value of $397 million, primarily in Australian dollars, British pounds, Canadian dollars, euros and Mexican pesos, that were not designated as hedges and mature within a few days.

For derivative instruments our HiFX operations write for customers, we aggregate the foreign currency exposure arising from customer contracts, and hedge the resulting net currency risks by entering into offsetting contracts with established financial institution counterparties as part of a broader foreign currency portfolio. The changes in fair value related to the total portfolio of positions are recorded in Revenues on the Consolidated Statements of Income. As of June 30, 2018, we held foreign currency derivative contracts outstanding with a notional value of $1.2 billion, primarily in U.S. dollars, euros, British pounds, Australian dollars and New Zealand dollars, that were not designated as hedges and for which the majority mature within the next twelve months.

We use longer-term foreign currency forward contracts to mitigate risks associated with changes in foreign currency exchange rates on certain foreign currency denominated other asset and liability positions. As of June 30, 2018, the Company had foreign currency forward contracts outstanding with a notional value of $404 million, primarily in euros and Polish zloty.

See Note 7, Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities to our Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Our executive management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rule 13a-15(b) under the Exchange Act as of June 30, 2018. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that the design and operation of these disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of such date to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in our reports under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.

Change in Internal Controls

There have not been any changes in internal control over financial reporting during the three months ended June 30, 2018 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

The Company is, from time to time, a party to legal or regulatory proceedings arising in the ordinary course of its business.

The discussion regarding contingencies in Part I, Item 1 — Financial Statements (unaudited), Note 12, Litigation and Contingencies, to the unaudited consolidated financial statements in this report is incorporated herein by reference.

Currently, there are no legal or regulatory proceedings that management believes, either individually or in the aggregate, would have a material adverse effect on the Company's consolidated financial condition or results of operations. In accordance with U.S. GAAP, we record a liability when it is both probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. These liabilities are reviewed at least quarterly and adjusted to reflect the impacts of negotiations, settlements, rulings, advice of legal counsel, and other information and events pertaining to a particular case or proceeding.

In December 2017, the Board of Directors amended the Repurchase Program, allowing Euronet to repurchase up to $250 million in value or 6.0 million shares of its common stock through December 31, 2019. On February 27, 2018, the Repurchase Program was further amended to increase the amount of common stock that may be purchase to an aggregate of $375 million in value or 10.0 million shares of stock and extending the expiration date of the Repurchase Program to March 31, 2020. Repurchases under the Repurchase Program may take place in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions, including derivative transactions, and may be made under a Rule 10b5-1 plan.

These disclosure schedules may contain information that modifies, qualifies and creates exceptions to the representations, warranties and covenants set forth in the agreements. Moreover, certain representations, warranties and covenants in the agreements may have been used for the purpose of allocating risk between the parties, rather than establishing matters as facts. In addition, information concerning the subject matter of the representations, warranties and covenants may have changed after the date of the respective agreement, which subsequent information may or may not be fully reflected in the Company's public disclosures. Accordingly, investors should not rely on the representations, warranties and covenants in the agreements as characterizations of the actual state of facts about the Company or its business or operations on the date hereof.
