Description of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Description of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies	(1) (a) EVO Payments, Inc. (“EVO, Inc.” or the “Company”) is a Delaware corporation whose “primary asset” is its ownership of approximately 31.3% of the membership interests of EVO Investco, LLC (“EVO, LLC”) as of September 30, 2018. EVO, Inc. was incorporated on April 20, 2017 for the purpose of completing the Reorganization Transactions, in order to consummate the IPO and to carry on the business of EVO, LLC. On September 20, 2018, EVO, Inc. completed a secondary offering (the “Secondary Offering”), which consisted of the issuance of 8,075,558 shares of Class A common stock. EVO, Inc. is the sole managing member of EVO, LLC and operates and controls all of the businesses and affairs conducted by the Group. The Company is a leading payment technology and services provider, offering an array of innovative, reliable, and secure payment solutions to merchants across North America and Europe. The Company supports all major card types in the markets it serves. The Company provides card-based payment processing services to small and middle market merchants, multinational corporations, government agencies, and other business and nonprofit enterprises located throughout North America and Europe. These services enable merchants to accept credit and debit cards and other electronic payment methods as payment for their products and services by providing terminal devices, card authorization, data capture, funds settlement, risk management, fraud detection, and chargeback services. As of September 30, 2018, the Company serviced over 550,000 merchants, had the ability to process across 50 markets and operated two reportable segments: North America and Europe. Since 2012, the Company has acquired and established various interests in entities that expanded the Company’s presence in North America and Europe. Most of these acquisitions were financed by an increase in the Company’s bank credit facilities. (b) The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets as of September 30, 2018 , the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, the unaudited condensed consolidated statement of changes in equity for the nine months ended September 30, 2018, and the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017 reflect all adjustments that are of a normal, recurring nature and that are considered necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the periods shown in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for interim financial reporting periods. Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosures have been condensed or omitted in accordance with SEC rules that would ordinarily be required under U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s final prospectus filed with the SEC on May 24, 2018 for the offering of Class A common stock (the “Class A common stock”). See Note 15, “Shareholders’ Equity,” to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for information regarding the Reorganization Transactions and the IPO. Effective September 30, 2018, the Company has separately presented settlement lines of credit amounts on the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet. These settlement lines of credit were previously presented as a component of the current portion of long-term debt. Prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period’s presentation. The preparation of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the period. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates. Estimates are used for accounting purposes including, but not limited to, calculating redeemable non-controlling interests, calculating income taxes, and calculating the valuation of long-lived assets. (c) The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company. As sole managing member of EVO, LLC, the Company exerts control over the Group. In accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 810, Consolidation , EVO, Inc. consolidates the Group’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and records the interests in EVO, LLC that it does not own as non-controlling interests. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The Company accounts for investments over which it has significant influence but not a controlling financial interest using the equity method of accounting. (d) Cash and cash equivalents include all cash balances and highly liquid securities with original maturities of three months or less when acquired. Cash balances often exceed federally insured limits; however, concentration of credit risk is limited due to the payment of funds on the day following receipt in satisfaction of the settlement process. Included in cash and cash equivalents are merchant reserve cash balances, which represent funds collected from the Company’s merchants that serve as collateral to minimize contingent liabilities associated with any losses that may occur under the respective merchant agreements (“Merchant Reserves”). While this cash is not restricted in its use, the Company believes that maintaining the Merchant Reserves to collateralize merchant losses strengthens its fiduciary standings with its card network sponsors (“Member Banks”) and is in accordance with the guidelines set by the card networks. As of September 30, 2018, and December 31, 2017, Merchant Reserves were $105.5 million and $111.3 million, respectively. (e) Basic earnings per Class A common stock is computed by dividing the net income attributable to EVO, Inc. by the weighted average number of Class A common stock outstanding from May 23, 2018 to September 30, 2018. Diluted earnings per Class A common stock is calculated by dividing the net income attributable to EVO, Inc. by the diluted weighted average Class A common stock outstanding during the period, which includes stock options, restricted stock units (“RSUs”), restricted stock awards (“RSAs”), and common membership interest of EVO, LLC (“LLC Interests”) corresponding to each Class C common share and Class D common share that are convertible into shares of Class A common stock for the period after the closing of the IPO, excluding anti-dilutive securities. The dilutive effect of outstanding share-based compensation awards, if any, is reflected in diluted earnings per Class A common stock by application of the treasury stock method or if-converted method, as applicable. Refer to Note 2, “Earnings Per Share,” for further information. (f) In certain markets, the Company is a member of various card networks, allowing it to process and fund transactions without third party sponsorship. In other markets, the Company has financial institution sponsors Member Banks for whom the Company facilitates payment transactions. These arrangements allow the Company to route transactions under the Member Banks’ control and identification numbers to clear card transactions through card networks. A summary of these amounts are as follows: September 30, December 31, 2018 2017 (In thousands) Settlement processing assets: Receivable from card networks $ 394,583 $ 342,803 Receivable from merchants 109,446 96,466 Totals $ 504,029 $ 439,269 Settlement processing obligations: Settlement liabilities $ (453,799) $ (372,642) Merchant reserves (105,503) (111,876) Totals $ (559,302) $ (484,518) (g) The Company recognizes revenue when (1) it is realized or realizable and earned, (2) there is persuasive evidence of an arrangement, (3) delivery and performance has occurred, (4) there is a fixed or determinable sales price, and (5) collection is reasonably assured. The Company primarily earns revenue from payment processing services. Payment processing service revenue is based on a percentage of transaction value and on specified amounts per transaction or service, and is recognized as such services are performed. The Company also earns revenue from the sale and rental of electronic point-of-sale (“POS”) equipment. Revenue from the sale of these products is recognized when goods are shipped and title passes to the customer. Revenue from the rental of electronic POS equipment is recognized monthly as earned. These revenues are presented in “Processing and other revenue” in the below table and totaled $10.8 million and $9.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017 , respectively. These revenues totaled $32.1 million and $29.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Such rental arrangements are considered multiple element arrangements. The Company follows guidance in ASC 605-25, Revenue Recognition – Multiple-Element Arrangements . However, because the non-processing elements are primarily accounted for as rentals with a similar delivery pattern, the elements have the same revenue recognition timing. Commissions, payable to referral and reseller partners, are recognized as incurred. A summary of revenue is as follows: Three Months Ended September 30, Nine Months Ended September 30, 2018 2017 2018 2017 (In thousands) (In thousands) Processing and other revenue $ 488,564 $ 455,851 $ 1,409,569 $ 1,283,223 Interchange and card network fees (282,823) (264,095) (820,328) (746,778) Subtotal 205,741 191,756 589,241 536,445 Commissions (43,345) (40,273) (123,985) (119,083) Card network processing costs and other (17,638) (18,837) (51,325) (51,197) Revenue $ 144,758 $ 132,646 $ 413,931 $ 366,165 (h) The Company accounts for share-based compensation transactions with employees in accordance with ASC 718, Compensation: Stock Compensation . ASC 718 requires a share-based compensation transaction with employees to be measured based on the fair value of the awards issued. The Company granted equity awards prior to the IPO. These awards contained a performance condition contingent on a liquidity event, as well as other metrics. These awards were modified on the IPO date by the compensation committee of the board of directors and the modified awards were fair valued on that date based on the IPO price per share of Class A common stock. The majority of these awards were fully time-vested; the Company recorded compensation expense to fully recognize the life to date value of these awards. With respect to equity awards issued as compensation in connection with the Reorganization Transactions and the IPO pursuant to the 2018 Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan, the fair value of the stock option awards are determined through the application of the Black-Scholes model. The fair value of the RSUs and RSAs was determined based on the IPO per share price or the market price at the time of grant. The fair value of awards granted to employees is expensed based on the vesting conditions of the awards. The Company has elected to recognize forfeitures at the time they occur. Refer to Note 16, “Stock Compensation Plans and Share-Based Compensation Awards,” for further information on the share-based compensation awards. (i) New accounting pronouncements are issued by the FASB or other standards setting bodies that are adopted by the Company are adopted as of the specified effective date. Unless otherwise discussed, management believes that the impact of recently issued standards that are not yet effective will not have a material impact on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements upon adoption. As the Company is considered an emerging growth company under the JOBS Act adoption of new accounting standards will be consistent with private company effective dates. In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement . This update provides clarification and modifies the disclosure requirements on fair value measurement in Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement . The effective date of this update is for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted. The Company is evaluating the impact of this ASU on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. In January 2017, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2017-04, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other . This update simplifies the subsequent measurement of goodwill by eliminating Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test. The amendments in this update are effective for annual or interim goodwill impairment tests in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021. The Company has early adopted ASU 2017-04 on a prospective basis, effective January 1, 2018. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows: Classification of Cash Receipts and Cash Payments . This update addresses eight specific cash flow issues with the objective of reducing the existing diversity in cash flow presentation practices. The amendment is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company has evaluated the impact of this ASU and concluded there is no resulting impact to the presentation on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated statement of cash flows. In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09, Compensation-Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting . This update simplifies several aspects of the accounting for share-based payments, including the accounting for excess tax benefits and deficiencies, forfeitures, and statutory tax withholding requirements, as well as classification on the statement of cash flows related to excess tax benefits and employee taxes paid when an employer withholds shares for tax-withholding purposes. The ASU is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption is permitted. An entity that elects early adoption must adopt all of the amendments in the same period. The Company has adopted ASU 2016-09 on a prospective basis effective July 1, 2018. The adoption of this standard did not have an impact on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. In March, April and May 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-08, 2016-10 and 2016-12 , Revenue from Contracts with Customers . These updates clarify certain definitions and topics with respect to ASU 2014-09. In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers . This ASU supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in ASC 605, Revenue Recognition . The new standard provides a five-step analysis of transactions to determine when and how revenue is recognized, based upon the core principle that revenue is recognized to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The new standard also requires additional disclosures regarding the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers. The new standard, as amended, is effective for the Company for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. Companies are permitted to either apply the requirements retrospectively to all prior periods presented, or apply the requirements in the year of adoption, through a cumulative adjustment. As of the date of this filing, the Company has completed its preliminary assessment of the impacts of the standard and has determined that the amount and timing of revenue recognition for its primary contract category, payment processing services, will remain consistent with the amount and timing of revenue recognition under existing GAAP. Costs to obtain contracts with our customers, which includes certain commissions paid to employees and fulfillment costs, will be capitalized and amortized over the period of benefit under the contract term under the new standard. The Company plans to adopt ASU 2014-09, as well as other clarifications and technical guidance issued by the FASB related to this new revenue standard, on January 1, 2019. The Company expects to apply the modified retrospective transition method, which would result in an adjustment to retained earnings for the cumulative effect, if any, of applying the standard to contracts in effect as of the adoption date. Under this method, the Company will not restate the prior consolidated financial statements presented. Therefore, the new standard will require additional disclosures of the amount by which each financial statement line item has been affected in the current reporting period during 2019, as compared to the guidance that was in effect before adoption with an explanation of the reasons for significant changes, if any. The Company continues to evaluate the disclosure requirements under the new standard in order to determine how disclosures about net revenue and related acquisition costs will be impacted. In July 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-10 and 2018-11, Leases . These updates clarify certain definitions and topics with respect to ASU 2016-02. In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases . This standard aims to increase transparency and comparability among organizations by recognizing lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet and disclosing key information about leasing arrangements. The new standard is effective for the Company for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early application of this ASU is permitted for all entities. The Company is evaluating the impact of this ASU on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

Earnings Per Share
Earnings Per Share	(2) As described in Note 15, “Shareholders’ Equity,” on May 22, 2018, the EVO, LLC Agreement was amended and restated, to, among other things, reclassify all of the then existing membership interests of EVO, LLC into a new single class of common membership interests. Additionally, the Company entered into a series of transactions that resulted in the issuance of Class A common stock, Class B common stock, Class C common stock and Class D common stock to the holders of LLC Interests and commenced the IPO resulting in the public issuance of additional shares of the Company’s Class A common stock (Refer to Note 15, “Shareholders’ Equity,” for further discussion of Reorganization Transactions and the IPO). Earnings per share information for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018 has been presented on a prospective basis and reflects only the net income (loss) available for holders of Class A common stock, as well as both basic and diluted weighted average Class A common stock outstanding, for the three months ended September 30, 2018 and for the period from May 23, 2018 through September 30, 2018. Earnings per share information prior to May 23, 2018 is not presented since the ownership structure of EVO, LLC is not a common unit of ownership. The following table sets forth the computation of the Company's basic and diluted net income per Class A common share (in thousands, except share and per share data): Three Months Ended September 30, May 23 - 2018 2018 Numerator: Net income attributable to EVO Payments, Inc. $ (27,389) $ (10,675) Denominator: Weighted average Class A common stock outstanding 18,163,344 17,901,484 Effect of dilutive securities — — Total dilutive securities 18,163,344 17,901,484 Earnings per share: Basic $ (1.51) $ (0.60) Diluted $ (1.51) $ (0.60) Antidilutive securities: Stock options 2,097,054 2,097,054 RSUs 499,510 499,510 Convertible Class C common stock 2,560,955 2,560,955 Convertible Class D common stock 17,282,930 17,282,930 Unit Appreciation Rights 58,809 58,809 Earnings per share is not separately presented for Class B common stock, Class C common stock and Class D common stock since they have no economic rights to the income or loss of EVO, Inc. Class B common stock is not considered when calculating dilution as this class of common stock may not convert to Class A common stock. Class C common stock and Class D common stock are considered in the dilution calculation as these classes have exchange rights to Class A common stock that could result in additional Class A common stock being issued, however, these shares are currently in a net loss position and are therefore anti-dilutive. Refer to Note 15, “Shareholders’ Equity,” for further information on rights to each class of stock.

Tax Receivable Agreement

Tax Receivable Agreement	9 Months Ended

Tax Receivable Agreement
Tax Receivable Agreement	(3) In connection with the IPO, the Company entered into a Tax Receivable Agreement (“TRA”) that requires the Company to make payments to the Continuing LLC Owners, as defined in Note 15, “Shareholders’ Equity,” that are generally equal to 85% of the applicable cash tax savings, if any, realized as a result of favorable tax attributes that will be available to the Company as a result of the Reorganization Transactions, exchanges of EVO, LLC interests for Class A common stock, and payments made under the TRA. Payments will occur only after the filing of U.S. federal and state income tax returns and realization of cash tax savings from the favorable tax attributes. The first payment is due between 95 to 125 days after the filing of the Company’s tax return for the year ended December 31, 2018, which is due April 15, 2019, however, the due date can be extended until October 15, 2019. As a result of the exchange of LLC Interests and shares of Class D common stock for shares of Class A common stock sold in connection with the IPO and Secondary Offering, the Company recorded a deferred tax asset of $49.9 million associated with the increase in tax basis. Payments to the Continuing LLC Owners related to the purchases, the exchanges as described in Note 15, “Shareholders’ Equity,” of the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, will aggregate to approximately $42.4 million, ranging from zero to $3.6 million per year over the next 15 years. The Company recorded a corresponding increase to paid-in capital for the difference between the TRA liability and the related deferred tax asset. As of September 30, 2018, the Company’s remaining deferred tax asset and payment liability pursuant to the TRA were approximately $49.9 million and $42.4 million, respectively. The amounts recorded as of September 30, 2018 approximate the current estimate of expected tax savings and are subject to change after the filing of the Company’s U.S. federal and state income tax returns for the year ending December 31, 2018. Future payments under the TRA with respect to subsequent exchanges would be in addition to these amounts. For the TRA, the cash savings realized by the Company are computed by comparing the actual income tax liability of the Company to the amount of such taxes the Company would have been required to pay had there been no increase to the tax basis of the assets of EVO, LLC as a result of the purchase or exchange of LLC Interests, had there been no tax benefit from the tax basis in the intangible assets of EVO, LLC on the date of the IPO and had there been no tax benefit as a result of the Net Operating Losses (“NOLs”) generated by the increase in our tax basis of the assets in EVO, LLC. Subsequent adjustments of the TRA obligations due to certain events (e.g. changes to the expected realization of NOLs or changes in tax rates) will be recognized within operating expenses in the unaudited condensed consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive loss.

Income Taxes

Income Taxes
Income Taxes	(8) In accordance with ASC 740, Income Taxes , each interim period is considered integral to the annual period, and tax expense is measured using an estimated annual effective tax rate. An entity is required to record income tax expense each quarter based on its best estimate of the annual effective tax rate for the full fiscal year and use that rate to provide for income taxes on a current year-to-date basis, as adjusted for discrete taxable events that occur during the interim periods. If, however, the entity is unable to reliably estimate its annual effective tax rate, then the actual effective tax rate for the year-to-date may be the best estimate of the entity’s annual effective tax rate. For the nine months ended September 30, 2018, the Company determined that it was unable to make a reliable estimate of its annual effective tax rate due to the sensitivity of the rate as it relates to its forecasted full year 2018 results. Therefore, the Company recorded a tax expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 based on its actual effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. The Company’s effective tax rate (“ETR”) was 388.5% and (11.1)% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, respectively. The effective tax rate for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018 differs from the statutory federal rate primarily due to foreign income taxes, the tax treatment of income attributable to non-controlling interests, and the exclusion of tax benefits related to losses recorded in certain foreign operations. The income attributable to the non-controlling interests is taxable to EVO, LLC’s individual owners and not to the Company itself. Income tax liabilities are incurred with respect to foreign operations whereas income of EVO, LLC in the U.S. flows through and is taxable to EVO, LLC’s owners, including the Company. The Company’s deferred tax asset increased from December 31, 2017 to September 30, 2018 primarily due to the increase in the tax basis of the assets of EVO, LLC as a result of the Reorganization Transactions and exchanges of EVO, LLC interests for Class A common stock of the Continuing LLC Owners. The Company’s ETR was (114.0)% and (88.8)% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, respectively. The effective tax rate for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 differs from the statutory federal rate primarily due to foreign income taxes. Income tax liabilities are incurred with respect to foreign operations whereas income of EVO, LLC in the U.S. flows through and is taxable to EVO, LLC’s owners. Management assesses the available evidence to estimate whether sufficient future taxable income will be generated to use existing deferred tax assets. A significant piece of objective, negative evidence evaluated was the cumulative loss incurred over the preceding twelve month period ended September 30, 2018 in certain jurisdictions. Such objective evidence limits the ability to consider other subjective evidence such as our projections of future growth. On the basis of this assessment, valuation allowances were established in prior periods to reduce the carrying amount of deferred tax assets to an amount that is more likely than not to be realized in certain European jurisdictions. Release of a valuation allowance would result in the realization of all or a portion of the related deferred tax assets and a decrease to income tax expense for the period in which the release is recorded. Based on our assessment, no material changes to our valuation allowances were recorded during the nine months ended September 30, 2018. On December 22, 2017, the U.S. government enacted comprehensive tax legislation commonly referred to as the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (“Tax Reform”). Tax Reform makes broad changes to U.S. federal tax law, including, but not limited to (1) reducing the U.S. federal corporate tax rate from 35% to 21%; (2) the acceleration of expensing certain business assets; (3) further limiting deductibility of executive compensation; (4) additional limitations on the deductibility of interest expense; and (5) limiting the NOL carryforward deduction to 80% of taxable income for losses arising in taxable years ending after December 31, 2017. The SEC staff issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 118 (“SAB 118”) to address situations where a registrant does not have the necessary information available, prepared, or analyzed (including computations) in reasonable detail to complete the accounting under ASC Topic 740 for certain income tax effects of Tax Reform for the reporting period of enactment. SAB 118 allows the Company to provide a provisional estimate of the impacts of Tax Reform during a measurement period similar to the measurement period used when accounting for business combinations. Adjustments to provisional estimates and additional impacts from Tax Reform must be recorded as they are identified during the measurement period as provided for in SAB 118. The Company continues to analyze the effects of Tax Reform and will record adjustments and additional impacts from Tax Reform as they are identified during the measurement period as provided for in SAB 118.

The Senior Secured Credit Facilities consisted of a first lien senior secured credit facility totaling $670.0 million (comprised of a $100.0 million revolver and a $570.0 million term loan) and second lien senior secured credit facility comprised of a $175.0 million term loan. On October 24, 2017, the Company entered into an incremental amendment agreement to upsize the existing first lien revolver from $100.0 million to $135.0 million. On April 3, 2018, the Company entered into a second incremental amendment agreement to the first lien credit facility, which increased the existing term loan credit facility by $95.0 million to $665.0 million. As a result of this second incremental amendment, $0.9 million in existing deferred financing was expensed as debt extinguishment loss related to the significant modification of a certain lender’s commitment within the syndicate and is classified as other expense in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. On May 25, 2018, the Company paid in full the second lien term loan in the amount of $178.2 million including $1.5 million of accrued interest and $1.8 million of prepayment penalty. On June 14, 2018, the Company entered into a restatement agreement (the “Restatement Agreement”) whereby the syndicate lenders agreed to replace their existing term loans with replacement term loans. In addition, the Restatement Agreement increased the first lien revolver by $65.0 million to $200.0 million and extended the maturity date of the first lien revolver to June 14, 2023. As a result of the Restatement Agreement, $1.2 million in existing deferred financing costs were expensed as debt extinguishment loss related to the significant modification of a certain lender’s commitment within the syndicate and is classified as other expense in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. EVO, LLC utilized the net proceeds from the Secondary Offering to pay down the Senior Secured Credit Facilities first lien revolver and to pay the installment payment on the Senior Secured Credit Facilities first lien term loan which was paid on September 27, 2018. The Senior Secured Credit Facilities provide the Company with the capacity to support both domestic and international growth, as well as fund general operating needs. The loans under the Senior Secured Credit Facilities bear interest, at the Company’s election, at the prime rate or London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR), plus leverage based margin. Under the Restatement Agreement, the lenders agreed to reduce the applicable leverage based margins. As of September 30, 2018, the loans under the Senior Secured Credit Facilities had an interest rate of 7.00% for revolving credit facility loans, 5.49% for first lien term loans. The Senior Secured Credit Facilities requires quarterly principal payments of the first lien secured credit facility of $1.6 million commencing on June 30, 2018 through September 30, 2023. The revolving credit facility and first lien term loan mature on June 14, 2023 and December 22, 2023, respectively. All amounts outstanding under the Senior Secured Credit Facilities are secured by a pledge of certain assets of EPI, as well as secured guarantees provided by certain of EPI’s controlled subsidiaries. The Senior Secured Credit Facilities also contain a number of significant negative covenants. These covenants, among other things, restrict, subject to certain exceptions, EPI’s and its controlled subsidiaries, ability to: incur indebtedness; create liens; engage in mergers or consolidations; make investments, loans and advances; pay dividends or other distributions and repurchase capital stock; sell assets; engage in certain transactions with affiliates; enter into sale and leaseback transactions; make certain accounting changes; and make prepayments on junior indebtedness. The first lien senior secured credit facility also contains a springing financial covenant that requires EPI to remain under a maximum consolidated leverage ratio determined on a quarterly basis. In addition, the Senior Secured Credit Facilities contain certain customary representations and warranties, affirmative covenants and events of default. If an event of default occurs, the lenders under the Senior Secured Credit Facilities will be entitled to take various actions, including the acceleration of amounts due thereunder and exercise of the remedies on the collateral. As of September 30, 2018 and 2017, the Company was in compliance with all its financial covenants. In conjunction with the acquisition of Sterling, a subsidiary of the Company agreed to a deferred purchase price of $70.0 million which accrued interest at a rate of 5% per annum and was payable in quarterly installments of $5.0 million, plus accrued and unpaid interest. In May 2018, the Company paid in full the outstanding balance of $57.4 million of the Sterling deferred purchase price, utilizing proceeds from the IPO and funds drawn from the revolving credit facility of $ 4.8 million.

Redeemable Non-controlling Interests
Redeemable Non-controlling Interests	(11) The Company owns 66% of eService, the Company’s Polish subsidiary. The eService shareholders’ agreement includes a provision whereby PKO Bank Polski, beginning on January 1, 2018, has the option to compel the Company to purchase 14% of the shares of eService held by PKO Bank Polski, at a price per share based on their fair value. Commencing on January 1, 2020, PKO Bank Polski may exercise an option to sell all of its remaining shares of eService to the Company. Because this option is not solely within the Company’s control, the Company has classified this interest as a redeemable non-controlling interests (“RNCI”) and reports the redemption value in the mezzanine section of the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. On a recurring basis, the RNCI will be reported at redemption value with a corresponding adjustment to accumulated deficit, which represents fair value. As of September 30, 2018, EVO, Inc. owns 31.3% of EVO, LLC. The EVO, LLC operating agreement includes a provision whereby Blueapple may deliver a sale of notice to EVO, Inc., upon receipt of which EVO, Inc. will use its commercially reasonable best efforts to pursue a public offering of shares of its Class A common stock and use the net proceeds therefrom to purchase LLC Interests from Blueapple. Upon receipt of such a sale notice, the Company may elect, at the Company’s option (determined solely by its independent directors (within the meaning of the rules of the NASDAQ stock market (“NASDAQ”)) who are disinterested), to cause EVO, LLC to instead redeem the applicable LLC Interests for cash; provided that Blueapple consents to any election by the Company to cause EVO, LLC to redeem the LLC Interests based on the fair value of the shares on such date. Because this option is not solely within the Company’s control, the Company has classified this interest as RNCI and reports the redemption value in the mezzanine section of the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets and will be reported at redemption value with a corresponding adjustment to accumulated deficit, which represents fair market value, on a recurring basis. The following table details the components of RNCI for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and for the year ended December 31, 2017: Pre-IPO Post-IPO May 23, September 30, December 31, 2018 2018 2017 (In thousands) Beginning balance $ 148,266 $ 689,569 $ 100,530 Acquired redeemable non-controlling interests — — — Net income attributable to redeemable non-controlling interests - eService 1,291 2,794 5,465 Net income attributable to redeemable non-controlling interests - Blueapple — (27,853) — Gain (loss) on OCI - eService (2,104) (1,355) 10,662 Gain (loss) on OCI - Blueapple — 544 — Legacy accumulated deficit allocation (150,485) — — Legacy AOCI allocation (39,404) — — Increase (decrease) in the maximum redemption amount of redeemable non-controlling interests - eService — 9,742 34,985 redeemable non-controlling interests - Blueapple 735,775 296,839 — Distributions - eService (3,770) (1,004) (3,376) Ending balance $ 689,569 $ 969,276 $ 148,266 As a result of the above activity, the RNCI attributable to eService and Blueapple were $153.9 million and $815.4 million as of September 30, 2018, respectively, and $128.5 million and zero as of December 31, 2017, respectively.

Level 1 instrument valuations are obtained from real‑time quotes for transactions in active exchange markets involving identical assets. Contingent consideration relates to potential payments that the Company may be required to make associated with acquisitions. To the extent that the valuation of these liabilities are based on projected inputs that are less observable or not observable in the market, the determination of fair value requires more judgment. Accordingly, the degree of judgment exercised in determining fair value is greatest for measures categorized in Level 3. In the determination of the fair value of the RNCI in eService, the Company used an income approach based on internal forecasts of expected future cash flows. Significant unobservable inputs included the Weighted Average Cost of Capital (“WACC”) used to discount the future cash flows, which was 17.5%, based on the markets in which the business operates and growth rate used within the future cash flows, which were between 3.0% and 25.6%, based on historic trends, current and expected market conditions, and management’s forecast assumptions. A future increase in the WACC would result in a decrease in the fair value of RNCI in eService. RNCI related to the Blueapple ownership of EVO, LLC is classified as Level 3. While the fair value is primarily derived from the fair value of EVO, Inc.’s closing stock price on the last day of the period, the Company applied a discount of 5% for lack of marketability resulting from the lock-up period, which prevents Blueapple from exercising its put option for six months from the IPO date. The carrying amounts of receivables, settlement, due from related parties, due to related parties, settlement lines of credit, long-term debt and deferred cash considerations associated with acquisitions, approximate their fair value given the short-term nature or bearing at market interest rate value approximating carrying value. Visa preferred shares are carried at cost. The estimated fair value of the Visa preferred shares of $28.4 million as of September 30, 2018 is based upon inputs classified as Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy using the fair value of Visa preferred shares as of September 30, 2018 and disclosed conversion factor as of September 30, 2018, inclusive of a discount rate due to the lack of liquidity, which represents a measure of fair value that are unobservable or require management’s judgement.

Stock Compensation Plans and Share-Based Compensation Awards
Stock Compensation Plans and Share-Based Compensation Awards	(16) The Company provides share-based compensation awards to its employees under the 2018 Plan, which the Company adopted in conjunction with its IPO. The 2018 Plan became effective on May 22, 2018. A total of 7,792,162 shares of our Class A common stock are reserved for issuance under the 2018 Plan. The following table summarizes share-based compensation expense, and the related income tax benefit recognized for share-based compensation awards: Three Months Ended September 30, Nine Months Ended September 30, 2018 2017 2018 2017 (In thousands) Share-based compensation expense $ 1,758 $ — $ 53,893 $ — Income tax benefit $ 68 $ — $ 3,914 $ — For share-based compensation awards, the Company recognized share-based compensation expense of $1.8 million and $53.9 million during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018. No share-based compensation expense was recognized for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017. The share-based compensation award plans provide for accelerated vesting under certain conditions. Class D awards The Company modified the Class D awards in connection with the IPO. All vesting conditions, with the exception of the consummation of a liquidity event, were waived as a result of the modification, including performance and service vesting conditions. On the modification date, the Company recorded share-based compensation expense based on the modification date fair value of $16.00 per share. As a result share-based compensation expense of $42.8 million was recognized for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 for the Class D awards, which represented the vesting of all 2,672,666 awarded shares. Prior to the consummation of the IPO, no liquidity event was probable and as such no share-based compensation expense had previously been recognized for these awards. On the modification date there were 15 employees or former employees who held Class D awards. All Class D awards granted and vested have a weighted average grant date fair value of $16.00. Unit appreciation rights/Restricted stock awards The Company assumed the EVO, LLC Unit Appreciation Rights Plan (“UAR Plan”) and issued shares of Class A common stock to members of our management and our current and former employees upon conversion of the outstanding UARs held by these individuals at the consummation of the IPO, resulting in newly issued RSAs. In connection with the assumption of the UAR Plan and issuance of Class A common stock, on the IPO date, the Company recorded share-based compensation expense based on the modification date fair value of $16.00 per share. As a result, share-based compensation expense of $0.3 million and $9.0 million was recognized for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018 for the RSAs. As of the IPO, 543,323 awarded shares vested and 52,476 of those awards were surrendered for tax obligations. Prior to the consummation of the IPO, no liquidity event was probable and as such no share-based compensation expense had been recognized for these awards. On the modification date, there were 35 employees and former employees who held UARs. Immediately subsequent to the IPO, there were 63,452 unvested RSAs outstanding. During the period subsequent to the IPO, 4,125 awarded shares vested and 518 awards were forfeited. As of September 30, 2018, there are 58,809 unvested awards with unrecognized share-based compensation expense of $0.7 million. All RSAs granted, vested, forfeited, and unvested have a weighted average grant date fair value of $16.00. Restricted stock units The Company recognized share-based compensation expense for RSUs granted of $0.6 million and $0.8 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018. A summary of RSUs activity is as follows (in thousands, except per share data): Number outstanding Weighted average fair value Balance at December 31, 2017 — $ — Granted 522 16.19 Vested — — Forfeited (4) 16.00 Balance at September 30, 2018 518 $ 16.19 As of September 30, 2018, total unrecognized share-based compensation expense related to outstanding RSUs was $7.6 million. Each RSU vests in equal annual vesting installments over a period of four years from the grant date and will settle in Class A common stock. The weighted average period outstanding for unvested RSUs is 3.5 years. Stock options The Company recognized share-based compensation expense for the stock options granted of $0.9 million and $1.3 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018. A summary of stock option activity is as follows (in thousands, except per share data): Number outstanding Weighted average fair value Balance at December 31, 2017 — $ — Granted 2,140 6.84 Exercised — — Forfeited (19) 6.68 Balance at September 30, 2018 2,121 $ 6.84 As of September 30, 2018, total unrecognized share-based compensation expense related to unvested stock options was $13.1 million. The weighted average period outstanding for unvested stock options is 3.6 years. Each stock option vests in equal annual installments over a period of four years from grant date, and stock options expire no later than 10 years from the date of grant. For the purpose of calculating share-based compensation expense, the fair value of the stock option grants was determined through the application of the Black-Scholes model with the following assumptions: Three Months Ended September 30, Nine Months Ended September 30, 2018 2018 Expected life (in years) 7.00 7.00 Weighted average risk-free interest rate 2.89% 3.04% Expected volatility 33.99% 34.28% Dividend yield 0.00% 0.00% Weighted average fair value at grant date $ 9.23 $ 6.84 The risk-free interest rate is based on the yield of a zero coupon U.S. Treasury security with a maturity equal to the expected life of the stock option from the date of the grant. The assumption on expected volatility is based on the historical volatility of a peer group of market participants as the Company has no established historical volatility. It is the Company’s intent to retain all profits for the operations of the business for the foreseeable future, as such the dividend yield assumption is zero. The Company applied the simplified method in determining the expected life of the stock options as the Company has no historical basis upon which to determine historical exercise periods. The Company based the assumptions of the expected term of the options as the expected term plus half of the remaining life through expiration. All stock options exercised will be settled in Class A common stock.

Description of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation and Use of Estimates	(b) The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets as of September 30, 2018 , the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, the unaudited condensed consolidated statement of changes in equity for the nine months ended September 30, 2018, and the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017 reflect all adjustments that are of a normal, recurring nature and that are considered necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the periods shown in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for interim financial reporting periods. Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosures have been condensed or omitted in accordance with SEC rules that would ordinarily be required under U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s final prospectus filed with the SEC on May 24, 2018 for the offering of Class A common stock (the “Class A common stock”). See Note 15, “Shareholders’ Equity,” to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for information regarding the Reorganization Transactions and the IPO. Effective September 30, 2018, the Company has separately presented settlement lines of credit amounts on the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet. These settlement lines of credit were previously presented as a component of the current portion of long-term debt. Prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period’s presentation. The preparation of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the period. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates. Estimates are used for accounting purposes including, but not limited to, calculating redeemable non-controlling interests, calculating income taxes, and calculating the valuation of long-lived assets.
Principles of Consolidation	(c) The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company. As sole managing member of EVO, LLC, the Company exerts control over the Group. In accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 810, Consolidation , EVO, Inc. consolidates the Group’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and records the interests in EVO, LLC that it does not own as non-controlling interests. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The Company accounts for investments over which it has significant influence but not a controlling financial interest using the equity method of accounting.
Cash and Cash Equivalents and Merchant Reserves	(d) Cash and cash equivalents include all cash balances and highly liquid securities with original maturities of three months or less when acquired. Cash balances often exceed federally insured limits; however, concentration of credit risk is limited due to the payment of funds on the day following receipt in satisfaction of the settlement process. Included in cash and cash equivalents are merchant reserve cash balances, which represent funds collected from the Company’s merchants that serve as collateral to minimize contingent liabilities associated with any losses that may occur under the respective merchant agreements (“Merchant Reserves”). While this cash is not restricted in its use, the Company believes that maintaining the Merchant Reserves to collateralize merchant losses strengthens its fiduciary standings with its card network sponsors (“Member Banks”) and is in accordance with the guidelines set by the card networks. As of September 30, 2018, and December 31, 2017, Merchant Reserves were $105.5 million and $111.3 million, respectively.
Earnings Per Share	(e) Basic earnings per Class A common stock is computed by dividing the net income attributable to EVO, Inc. by the weighted average number of Class A common stock outstanding from May 23, 2018 to September 30, 2018. Diluted earnings per Class A common stock is calculated by dividing the net income attributable to EVO, Inc. by the diluted weighted average Class A common stock outstanding during the period, which includes stock options, restricted stock units (“RSUs”), restricted stock awards (“RSAs”), and common membership interest of EVO, LLC (“LLC Interests”) corresponding to each Class C common share and Class D common share that are convertible into shares of Class A common stock for the period after the closing of the IPO, excluding anti-dilutive securities. The dilutive effect of outstanding share-based compensation awards, if any, is reflected in diluted earnings per Class A common stock by application of the treasury stock method or if-converted method, as applicable. Refer to Note 2, “Earnings Per Share,” for further information.
Settlement Processing Assets and Liabilities	(f) In certain markets, the Company is a member of various card networks, allowing it to process and fund transactions without third party sponsorship. In other markets, the Company has financial institution sponsors Member Banks for whom the Company facilitates payment transactions. These arrangements allow the Company to route transactions under the Member Banks’ control and identification numbers to clear card transactions through card networks. A summary of these amounts are as follows: September 30, December 31, 2018 2017 (In thousands) Settlement processing assets: Receivable from card networks $ 394,583 $ 342,803 Receivable from merchants 109,446 96,466 Totals $ 504,029 $ 439,269 Settlement processing obligations: Settlement liabilities $ (453,799) $ (372,642) Merchant reserves (105,503) (111,876) Totals $ (559,302) $ (484,518)
Revenue Recognition	(g) The Company recognizes revenue when (1) it is realized or realizable and earned, (2) there is persuasive evidence of an arrangement, (3) delivery and performance has occurred, (4) there is a fixed or determinable sales price, and (5) collection is reasonably assured. The Company primarily earns revenue from payment processing services. Payment processing service revenue is based on a percentage of transaction value and on specified amounts per transaction or service, and is recognized as such services are performed. The Company also earns revenue from the sale and rental of electronic point-of-sale (“POS”) equipment. Revenue from the sale of these products is recognized when goods are shipped and title passes to the customer. Revenue from the rental of electronic POS equipment is recognized monthly as earned. These revenues are presented in “Processing and other revenue” in the below table and totaled $10.8 million and $9.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017 , respectively. These revenues totaled $32.1 million and $29.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Such rental arrangements are considered multiple element arrangements. The Company follows guidance in ASC 605-25, Revenue Recognition – Multiple-Element Arrangements . However, because the non-processing elements are primarily accounted for as rentals with a similar delivery pattern, the elements have the same revenue recognition timing. Commissions, payable to referral and reseller partners, are recognized as incurred. A summary of revenue is as follows: Three Months Ended September 30, Nine Months Ended September 30, 2018 2017 2018 2017 (In thousands) (In thousands) Processing and other revenue $ 488,564 $ 455,851 $ 1,409,569 $ 1,283,223 Interchange and card network fees (282,823) (264,095) (820,328) (746,778) Subtotal 205,741 191,756 589,241 536,445 Commissions (43,345) (40,273) (123,985) (119,083) Card network processing costs and other (17,638) (18,837) (51,325) (51,197) Revenue $ 144,758 $ 132,646 $ 413,931 $ 366,165
Share-Based Compensation	(h) The Company accounts for share-based compensation transactions with employees in accordance with ASC 718, Compensation: Stock Compensation . ASC 718 requires a share-based compensation transaction with employees to be measured based on the fair value of the awards issued. The Company granted equity awards prior to the IPO. These awards contained a performance condition contingent on a liquidity event, as well as other metrics. These awards were modified on the IPO date by the compensation committee of the board of directors and the modified awards were fair valued on that date based on the IPO price per share of Class A common stock. The majority of these awards were fully time-vested; the Company recorded compensation expense to fully recognize the life to date value of these awards. With respect to equity awards issued as compensation in connection with the Reorganization Transactions and the IPO pursuant to the 2018 Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan, the fair value of the stock option awards are determined through the application of the Black-Scholes model. The fair value of the RSUs and RSAs was determined based on the IPO per share price or the market price at the time of grant. The fair value of awards granted to employees is expensed based on the vesting conditions of the awards. The Company has elected to recognize forfeitures at the time they occur. Refer to Note 16, “Stock Compensation Plans and Share-Based Compensation Awards,” for further information on the share-based compensation awards.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements	(i) New accounting pronouncements are issued by the FASB or other standards setting bodies that are adopted by the Company are adopted as of the specified effective date. Unless otherwise discussed, management believes that the impact of recently issued standards that are not yet effective will not have a material impact on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements upon adoption. As the Company is considered an emerging growth company under the JOBS Act adoption of new accounting standards will be consistent with private company effective dates. In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement . This update provides clarification and modifies the disclosure requirements on fair value measurement in Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement . The effective date of this update is for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted. The Company is evaluating the impact of this ASU on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. In January 2017, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2017-04, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other . This update simplifies the subsequent measurement of goodwill by eliminating Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test. The amendments in this update are effective for annual or interim goodwill impairment tests in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021. The Company has early adopted ASU 2017-04 on a prospective basis, effective January 1, 2018. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows: Classification of Cash Receipts and Cash Payments . This update addresses eight specific cash flow issues with the objective of reducing the existing diversity in cash flow presentation practices. The amendment is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company has evaluated the impact of this ASU and concluded there is no resulting impact to the presentation on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated statement of cash flows. In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09, Compensation-Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting . This update simplifies several aspects of the accounting for share-based payments, including the accounting for excess tax benefits and deficiencies, forfeitures, and statutory tax withholding requirements, as well as classification on the statement of cash flows related to excess tax benefits and employee taxes paid when an employer withholds shares for tax-withholding purposes. The ASU is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption is permitted. An entity that elects early adoption must adopt all of the amendments in the same period. The Company has adopted ASU 2016-09 on a prospective basis effective July 1, 2018. The adoption of this standard did not have an impact on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. In March, April and May 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-08, 2016-10 and 2016-12 , Revenue from Contracts with Customers . These updates clarify certain definitions and topics with respect to ASU 2014-09. In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers . This ASU supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in ASC 605, Revenue Recognition . The new standard provides a five-step analysis of transactions to determine when and how revenue is recognized, based upon the core principle that revenue is recognized to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The new standard also requires additional disclosures regarding the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers. The new standard, as amended, is effective for the Company for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. Companies are permitted to either apply the requirements retrospectively to all prior periods presented, or apply the requirements in the year of adoption, through a cumulative adjustment. As of the date of this filing, the Company has completed its preliminary assessment of the impacts of the standard and has determined that the amount and timing of revenue recognition for its primary contract category, payment processing services, will remain consistent with the amount and timing of revenue recognition under existing GAAP. Costs to obtain contracts with our customers, which includes certain commissions paid to employees and fulfillment costs, will be capitalized and amortized over the period of benefit under the contract term under the new standard. The Company plans to adopt ASU 2014-09, as well as other clarifications and technical guidance issued by the FASB related to this new revenue standard, on January 1, 2019. The Company expects to apply the modified retrospective transition method, which would result in an adjustment to retained earnings for the cumulative effect, if any, of applying the standard to contracts in effect as of the adoption date. Under this method, the Company will not restate the prior consolidated financial statements presented. Therefore, the new standard will require additional disclosures of the amount by which each financial statement line item has been affected in the current reporting period during 2019, as compared to the guidance that was in effect before adoption with an explanation of the reasons for significant changes, if any. The Company continues to evaluate the disclosure requirements under the new standard in order to determine how disclosures about net revenue and related acquisition costs will be impacted. In July 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-10 and 2018-11, Leases . These updates clarify certain definitions and topics with respect to ASU 2016-02. In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases . This standard aims to increase transparency and comparability among organizations by recognizing lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet and disclosing key information about leasing arrangements. The new standard is effective for the Company for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early application of this ASU is permitted for all entities. The Company is evaluating the impact of this ASU on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.
