Pasadena, CA - October 30, 2014 - Green Dot Corporation (NYSE: GDOT), today reported financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2014.
For the third quarter of 2014, Green Dot reported $144.7 million in GAAP total operating revenues and $0.30 in GAAP diluted earnings per share. Green Dot reported growth of 6% year-over-year in non-GAAP total operating revenues1 to $146.8 million and non-GAAP diluted earnings per share1 of $0.36, representing 50% year-over-year growth.
Net cash provided by operating activities in the quarter was $21.8 million. As of September 30, 2014, Green Dot’s consolidated balance sheet held total cash and investment securities of $846.1 million, which is 50% higher than at the same time last year.
"Our solid third quarter results were driven by the continued growth in active cards along with increasing revenue derived from those active cards. This is also another quarter showing significant year-over-year margin expansion, which is in part a result of a continued mix shift in our total active card portfolio towards higher margin products, and the continued realization of significant efficiencies in our operating infrastructure,” said Steve Streit, Green Dot Chairman and Chief Executive Officer.

Selected Business Updates
| |
| • | Green Dot and Walgreens have entered into a new multi-year renewal agreement under which Green Dot will sell its branded cards and reload services at Walgreens stores nationwide. Green Dot brand products and services have been offered at Walgreens since 2005. |
| |
| • | Green Dot added more than 400 check cashing stores selling Green Dot products in Q3 and, starting in October 2014, the Company launched its new partnership with ACE Cash Express in its approximately 1,500 locations nationwide. In just the past 12 months, Green Dot has gone from no distribution in the financial services center (FSC) channel to now, with the addition of ACE, more than 3,000 FSC locations coast to coast selling Green Dot products and/or services. |
| |
| • | Green Dot's GoBank checking account product began rolling out to all Walmart stores in late September. This product is expected to be rolled out nationwide by early-November. |
| |
| • | On October 23, 2014, Green Dot closed on the acquisition of Santa Barbara Tax Products Group, or TPG, making Green Dot Corporation the largest outsourced processor of tax refunds for low and moderate income Americans. As the Company mentioned when it announced the acquisition, this combination is expected to be highly accretive and create material growth in 2015 on a consolidated basis, in addition to providing significant margin expansion and diversity of earnings. |
Outlook for 2014
For the second time this year, Green Dot has raised its 2014 adjusted EBITDA and non-GAAP diluted EPS guidance. Green Dot's outlook is based on a number of assumptions that Green Dot believes are reasonable at the time of this earnings release. Information regarding potential risks that could cause the actual results to differ from these forward-looking statements is set forth below and in Green Dot's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
For 2014, Green Dot now expects adjusted EBITDA2 to be between $126 million and $129 million which includes the absorption of approximately $6 million in operating expenses for the remainder of the year from the Company's newly acquired TPG tax refund processing unit, which closed on October 23, 2014. Non-GAAP diluted EPS2 is now expected to be between $1.29 and $1.33 for the full year, which is based on an effective tax rate of approximately 36%, and a weighted average fully diluted share count of approximately 48 million, incorporating newly-issued shares in relation to closing the TPG acquisition. The Company's previous non-GAAP total operating revenue guidance remains unchanged at between $610 million and $620 million for the full year.
“The favorable mix shift to higher margin products and the realization of operating efficiencies across our business has delivered higher than anticipated margins over the course of the year. As a result, we have raised adjusted EBITDA guidance twice this year to a level that, excluding TPG's consolidated operating expenses, is approximately 15% higher at the midpoint than our original adjusted EBITDA range communicated in January,” said Grace Wang, Green Dot Chief Financial Officer.

About Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To supplement the Company's consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP), the Company uses measures of operating results that are adjusted to exclude net interest income; income tax expense; depreciation and amortization; employee stock-based compensation expense; stock-based retailer incentive compensation expense; other income; and transaction costs. This earnings release includes non-GAAP total operating revenues, non-GAAP net income, non-GAAP earnings per share, non-GAAP weighted-average shares issued and outstanding and adjusted EBITDA.

| (1) | To supplement the Company’s consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with GAAP, the Company uses measures of operating results that are adjusted to exclude various, primarily non-cash, expenses and charges. These financial measures are not calculated or presented in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered as alternatives to or substitutes for operating revenues, operating income, net income or any other measure of financial performance calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. These financial measures may not be comparable to similarly-titled measures of other organizations because other organizations may not calculate their measures in the same manner as we do. These financial measures are adjusted to eliminate the impact of items that the Company does not consider indicative of its core operating performance. You are encouraged to evaluate these adjustments and the reasons we consider them appropriate. |
The Company believes that the non-GAAP financial measures it presents are useful to investors in evaluating the Company’s operating performance for the following reasons:
| |
| ▪ | stock-based retailer incentive compensation is a non-cash GAAP accounting charge that is an offset to the Company’s actual revenues from operations as the Company has historically calculated them. This charge results from the monthly lapsing of the Company’s right to repurchase a portion of the 2,208,552 shares it issued to its largest distributor, Walmart, in May 2010. By adding back this charge to the Company’s GAAP 2010 and future total operating revenues, investors can make direct comparisons of the Company’s revenues from operations prior to and after May 2010 and thus more easily perceive trends in the Company’s core operations. Further, because the monthly charge is based on the then-current fair market value of the shares as to which the Company’s repurchase right lapses, adding back this charge eliminates fluctuations in the Company’s operating revenues caused by variations in its stock price and thus provides insight on the operating revenues directly associated with those core operations; |
| |
| ▪ | the Company records employee stock-based compensation from period to period, and recorded employee stock-based compensation expenses of approximately $5.5 million and $4.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. By comparing the Company’s adjusted EBITDA, non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP diluted earnings per share in different historical periods, investors can evaluate the Company’s operating results without the additional variations caused by employee stock-based compensation expense, which may not be comparable from period to period due to changes in the fair market value of the Company’s Class A common stock (which is influenced by external factors like the volatility of public markets and the financial performance of the Company’s peers) and is not a key measure of the Company’s operations; |
| |
| ▪ | adjusted EBITDA is widely used by investors to measure a company’s operating performance without regard to items, such as interest expense, income tax expense, depreciation and amortization, employee stock-based compensation expense, stock-based retailer incentive compensation expense, other income and transaction costs, that can vary substantially from company to company depending upon their respective financing structures and accounting policies, the book values of their assets, their capital structures and the methods by which their assets were acquired; and |
| |
| ▪ | securities analysts use adjusted EBITDA as a supplemental measure to evaluate the overall operating performance of companies. |
The Company’s management uses the non-GAAP financial measures:
| |
| ▪ | as measures of operating performance, because they exclude the impact of items not directly resulting from the Company’s core operations; |
| |
| ▪ | for planning purposes, including the preparation of the Company’s annual operating budget; |
| |
| ▪ | to allocate resources to enhance the financial performance of the Company’s business; |
| |
| ▪ | to evaluate the effectiveness of the Company’s business strategies; and |
| |
| ▪ | in communications with the Company’s board of directors concerning the Company’s financial performance. |
The Company understands that, although adjusted EBITDA and other non-GAAP financial measures are frequently used by investors and securities analysts in their evaluations of companies, these measures have limitations as an analytical tool, and you should not consider them in isolation or as substitutes for analysis of the Company’s results of operations as reported under GAAP. Some of these limitations are:
| |
| ▪ | that these measures do not reflect the Company’s capital expenditures or future requirements for capital expenditures or other contractual commitments; |
| |
| ▪ | that these measures do not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, the Company’s working capital needs; |
| |
| ▪ | that these measures do not reflect interest expense or interest income; |
| |
| ▪ | that these measures do not reflect cash requirements for income taxes; |
| |
| ▪ | that, although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated or amortized will often have to be replaced in the future, and these measures do not reflect any cash requirements for these replacements; and |
| |
| ▪ | that other companies in the Company’s industry may calculate these measures differently than the Company does, limiting their usefulness as comparative measures. |
| |
| (2) | This expense consists of the recorded fair value of the shares of Class A common stock for which the Company’s right to repurchase has lapsed pursuant to the terms of the May 2010 agreement under which they were issued to Wal-Mart Stores, Inc., a contra-revenue component of the Company’s total operating revenues. Prior to the three months ended June 30, 2010, the Company did not record stock-based retailer incentive compensation expense. The Company will, however, continue to incur this expense through May 2015. In future periods, the Company does not expect this expense will be comparable from period to period due to changes in the fair value of its Class A common stock. The Company will also have to record additional stock-based retailer incentive compensation expense to the extent that a warrant to purchase its Class B common stock vests and becomes exercisable upon the achievement of certain performance goals by PayPal. The Company does not believe these non-cash expenses are reflective of ongoing operating results. |
| |
| (3) | The Company does not include any income tax impact of the associated non-GAAP adjustment to non-GAAP total operating revenues or adjusted EBITDA, as the case may be, because each of these non-GAAP financial measures is provided before income tax expense. |
| |
| (4) | This expense consists primarily of expenses for employee stock options. Employee stock-based compensation expense is not comparable from period to period due to changes in the fair market value of the Company’s Class A common stock (which is influenced by external factors like the volatility of public markets and the financial performance of the Company’s peers) and is not a key measure of the Company’s operations. The Company excludes employee stock-based compensation expense from its non-GAAP financial measures primarily because it consists of non-cash expenses that the Company does not believe are reflective of ongoing operating results. Further, the Company believes that it is useful to investors to understand the impact of employee stock-based compensation to its results of operations. |
| |
| (5) | This expense represents the amortization attributable to the Company's acquired intangible assets. The Company excludes amortization expenses related to acquired intangible assets from its non-GAAP financial measures primarily because it consists of non-cash expenses that the Company does not believe are reflective of ongoing operating results. |
| |
| (6) | This income consists of a gain in connection with the settlement of a lawsuit. The Company excludes significant gains and losses from the settlement of lawsuits from its non-GAAP financial measures primarily because the Company does not believe these gains and losses are reflective of ongoing operating results. |
| |
| (7) | These expenses relate to transaction costs associated with the Company's acquisition of Santa Barbara Tax Products Group. The Company excludes business combination acquisition costs from its non-GAAP financial measures because the Company does not believe these expenses are reflective of ongoing operating results. |
| |
| (8) | These amounts represent estimated adjustments for net interest income, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, employee stock-based compensation expense, stock-based retailer incentive compensation expense, other income and transaction costs. Employee stock-based compensation expense and stock-based retailer incentive compensation expense include assumptions about the future fair market value of the Company’s Class A common stock (which is influenced by external factors like the volatility of public markets and the financial performance of the Company’s peers). |
