HERZLIYA, Israel, February 28, 2024 (Globe Newswire) – Nayax Ltd. (Nasdaq: NYAX, TASE: NYAX), a global commerce payments and loyalty platform designed to help merchants scale their business, today announced its financial results for the fourth quarter and full year 2023.
Management Commentary
“2023 was a fantastic year for Nayax from both a strategic and financial perspective. The inherent operating leverage in our business model continues to be a key driver of our improving margins, as we progress towards our long-term 2028 target of 50% gross margins and 30% adjusted EBITDA margin,” commented Yair Nechmad, Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board.
“2023 also marked a big milestone for Nayax in which we crossed 1,000,000 managed and connected devices. Over the course of the year, we expanded our offering, advanced our level of automation in the company, and significantly improved our operational efficiency. Looking ahead, we see strong tailwinds as we continue to build on our core automated self-service platform and expand to other geographies.”
Sagit Manor, Chief Financial Officer added, “We ended 2023 with very strong fourth quarter results and we are set up very well for 2024, showcasing the strength and scalability of our business model. Recurring revenue grew by 44% year over year, making up 64% of our total 2023 revenue. Our dollar-based net retention rate remains healthy at 144%, which reflects strong customer satisfaction and loyalty for our comprehensive solutions.”
(1) The Company does not provide a reconciliation of forward-looking adjusted EBITDA to IFRS net income (loss) due to the inherent difficulty in forecasting and quantifying certain amounts that are necessary for such reconciliation, in particular, because special items such as finance expenses and Issuance and acquisition costs used to calculate projected net income (loss) vary dramatically based on actual events. Therefore, the Company is not able to forecast on an IFRS basis with reasonable certainty all deductions needed in order to provide an IFRS calculation of projected net income (loss) at this time. The amount of these deductions may be material, and therefore could result in projected IFRS net income (loss) being materially less than projected adjusted EBITDA (non-IFRS).

Financial Outlook
For the full year 2024, management provided the following outlook:
Revenue is expected to be in the range of $325 million to $335 million (based on constant currency), representing year-over-year organic and inorganic growth of over 38%. Adjusted EBITDA is expected to be in the range of $30 to $35 million as Nayax continues to scale its business.
Over the long term, management expects to maintain an approximate 35% CAGR on revenue, driven by organic growth initiatives and strategic M&A. The long-term adjusted EBITDA margin and gross margin target is 30% and 50%, respectively. Improvements over the coming years are expected to be driven by leasing options for IoT POS, growing SaaS revenue and payment processing fees, and emerging growth initiatives.

The forward- looking statements are based on our beliefs, assumptions, and expectations of future performance, taking into account the information currently available to us.

Use of Non-IFRS Financial Information
In addition to various operational metrics and financial measures in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted under International Financial Reporting Standards, or IFRS, this press release contains Adjusted EBITDA, a non-IFRS financial measure, as a measure to evaluate our past results and future prospects.
Adjusted EBITDA
Adjusted EBITDA is a non-IFRS financial measure that we define as loss for the period plus finance expenses, tax expense, depreciation and amortization, share-based compensation costs, non-recurring issuance and acquisition related costs and our share in losses of associates accounted for by the equity method.
We present Adjusted EBITDA in this press release because it is a measure that our management and board of directors utilize as a measure to evaluate our operating performance and for internal planning and forecasting purposes. Accordingly, we believe that Adjusted EBITDA provides useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating our operating results in the same manner as our management and board of directors.
We believe that Adjusted EBITDA, when taken collectively with financial measures prepared in accordance with IFRS, may be helpful to investors because it provides an additional tool for investors to use in evaluating our ongoing operating results and trends and in comparing our financial results with other companies because it provides consistency and comparability with past financial performance. However, our management does not consider this non-IFRS measure in isolation or as an alternative to financial measures determined in accordance with IFRS.
Adjusted EBITDA is presented for supplemental informational purposes only, has limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for financial information presented in accordance with IFRS. Adjusted EBITDA may be different from similarly titled measures used by other companies. The principal limitation of Adjusted EBITDA is that it excludes significant expenses that are required by IFRS to be recorded in our financial statements, as further detailed above. In addition, it is subject to inherent limitations as it reflects the exercise of judgment by management about which expenses are excluded or included in determining Adjusted EBITDA.
A reconciliation is provided at the end of this press release for Adjusted EBITDA to net loss, the most directly comparable financial measure prepared in accordance with IFRS. Investors are encouraged to review net loss and the reconciliation to Adjusted EBITDA included below and to not rely on any single financial measure to evaluate our business.

Constant Currency
Nayax presents constant currency information to provide a framework for assessing how our underlying businesses performed excluding the effect of foreign currency rate fluctuations. Future expected results for transactions in currencies other than United States dollars are converted into United States dollars using the exchange rates in effect in the last month of the reporting period. Nayax provides this financial information to aid investors in better understanding our performance. These constant currency financial measures presented in this release should not be considered as a substitute for, or superior to, the measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with IFRS.
The Company cannot provide expected 2024 net income without unreasonable effort because certain items that impact net income are out of the Company's control and/or cannot be reasonably predicted at this time, which unavailable information could have a significant impact on the Company’s IFRS financial results.
