Note:

Revenues from domestic-based services include electronic payment processing services and other services provided from the United States to clients domiciled in the United States or other countries. Revenues from international-based services include electronic payment processing services and other services provided from outside the United States to clients based mainly outside the United States.

Effective February 1, 2008, TSYS merged the operations of Golden Retriever LLC with TSYS Acquiring Solutions, LLC. As a result of the merger, the results of Golden Retriever for prior periods have been reclassified to reflect the move from domestic-based support services to the merchant acquiring services segment.
