EURONET WORLDWIDE, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1- ORGANIZATION
Euronet Worldwide, Inc. ("Euronet" or the "Company") has recently acquired
ownership in the following companies:
Asia Electronic Financial Transaction Holdings Limited ("AEFT"), incorporated in
Hong Kong, S.A.R. of the People's Republic of China of which 50% of the shares
are owned by our wholly owned subsidiary EFT Services Holdings BV and 50% of the
shares are owned by First Mobile Group Holding ("FMG") AEFT, formerly known as
Pacific Apex Holdings Limited, was formed by FMG on January 16, 2002. On January
26, 2002, EFT Services Holding B.V. subscribed to 50% of the shares through the
contribution of certain software. AEFT will act as a holding company to own an
operating company in Malaysia and possibly other operating companies in Asia.
The Company accounts for AEFT using the equity method of accounting.
Europlanet a.d. ("Europlanet"), incorporated in the Federal Republic of Serbia,
of which 36% of the shares are owned by our wholly owned subsidiary EFT Services
Holdings BV, 34% by Komercijalna Banka and 30% by Arius a.d. Europlanet was
formed on March 25, 2002, with a cash investment and contributions of licensed
software by Komercijalna Banka; contributions of software, hardware, lease
rights and certain contract rights by Arius a.d.; and contributions of certain
software by the Company. During the first twelve months of operation of
Europlanet, Komercijalna Banka is committed to contribute an additional $240,000
in monthly installments to cover cash flow requirements of Europlanet.
Europlanet was formed to own and/or operate and manage ATM machines and point of
sale terminals both for their own account and the account of customer banks. The
Company accounts for Europlanet using the equity method of accounting.
NOTE 2 - FINANCIAL POSITION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of Euronet and
subsidiaries have been prepared from the records of the Company, pursuant to the
rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. In the opinion
of management, such unaudited consolidated financial statements include all
adjustments (consisting only of normal, recurring accruals) necessary to present
fairly the financial position of the Company at June 30, 2002 and December 31,
2001, the results of its operations for the three-month and six-month periods
ended June 30, 2002 and 2001, and cash flows for the six-month periods ended
June 30, 2002 and 2001.
The unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction
with the audited consolidated financial statements of Euronet Worldwide, Inc.
and subsidiaries for the year ended December 31, 2001, including the notes
thereto, set forth in the Company's Form 10-K.
The results of operations for the three-month and six-month periods ended June
30, 2002 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the
full year.
NOTE 3 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND RECENTLY ADOPTED ACCOUNTING
STANDARDS
For a description of the accounting policies of the Company, see Note 3 to the
audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2001.
On July 1, 2001, we adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 141,
Business Combinations (SFAS 141). The adoption of SFAS 141 had no impact on the
financial statements.
On January 1, 2002, we adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.
142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets (SFAS 142). Under SFAS 142 goodwill
and intangible assets with indefinite lives are no longer amortized but are
reviewed annually (or more frequently if impairment indicators arise) for
impairment. Separable intangible assets that are not deemed to have indefinite
lives will continue to be amortized over their useful lives. The amortization
and non-amortization provisions of SFAS 142 apply upon issuance to all goodwill
and intangible assets acquired after June 30, 2001. With respect to goodwill and
intangible assets acquired prior to July 1, 2001, we adopted SFAS 142 effective
January 1, 2002. In accordance with SFAS 142, we have performed an evaluation
and determined that all intangible assets recorded in our consolidated financial
statements comprise only goodwill. We have completed the first step of the
impairment test required by SFAS 142 and determined that there are no indicators
of impairment. The goodwill is reported in the Processing Services Segment and
in the Germany reporting unit.
The application of the provisions of SFAS 142 resulted in a reduction of
goodwill amortization expense of $0.2 million for the six months ended and $0.1
million for the three months ended June 30, 2002, as compared to the same
periods in the previous year. At June 30, 2002, the Company had goodwill, net of
accumulated amortization, of $1.7 million.
On January 1, 2002, we adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.
143, Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations (SFAS 143). The adoption of
SFAS 143 had no impact to the financial statements.
On January 1, 2002, we adopted Statement of Financial Standards No. 144,
Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets (SFAS 144). SFAS
144 establishes accounting and reporting standards for the impairment and
disposal of long-lived assets and discontinued operations. The application of
this statement resulted in the classification and separate financial statement
presentation of certain entities as discontinued operations, which are not
included in continuing operations.
On January 4, 2002, the Company sold substantially all of the assets of the
United States ATM processing business to ALLTEL Information Services, Inc.
("AIS") in an asset purchase agreement. The United States processing business
was owned by the Company's subsidiary EFT Network Services, LLC and was commonly
known as "DASH" or the "DASH network." DASH was accounted for as a discontinued
operation in accordance with SFAS 144 and, accordingly, amounts in the financial
statements and related notes for all periods shown reflect discontinued
operations accounting. Related assets and liabilities have been segregated and
continue to be recorded in the financial statements at their carrying value as
of December 31, 2001 (See Note 9 - Discontinued Operations to the unaudited
consolidated financial statements).
On July 15, 2002, the Company transferred substantially all of the non-current
assets and capital lease obligations of its processing business in France to
Atos Origin Services S.A.S. ("Atos") for 1 Euro plus reimbursement of certain
operating expenses. France was accounted for as a discontinued operation in
accordance with SFAS 144 and, accordingly, amounts in the financial statements
and
related notes for all periods shown reflect discontinued operations accounting.
Non-current assets and capital lease obligations related to the France business
have been segregated and continue to be recorded in the financial statements at
their carrying value as of December 31, 2001 and June 30, 2002. (See Note 9 -
Discontinued Operation to the unaudited consolidated financial statements.)
On April 1, 2002, we adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.
145, Rescission of FASB Statements No. 4, 44, and 64, Amendment of FASB
Statement No. 13, and Technical Corrections (SFAS 145). The Statement covers a
variety of technical issues that will not have an impact on our financial
statements except for the rescission of SFAS 4, Reporting Gains and Losses from
the Extinguishment of Debt. SFAS 4 required all gains and losses from
extinguishment of debt to be aggregated and classified as an extraordinary item,
net of related income tax effect. Under SFAS 145, gains and losses from
extinguishment of debt should not be classified as extraordinary unless the
extinguishment meets the relevant criteria of APB Opinion 30 (Opinion 30) and
such instances are expected to be rare. The rescission of SFAS 4 is effective
for fiscal years beginning after May 15, 2002 with early adoption encouraged. In
accordance with SFAS 145, we have classified gains and losses from
extinguishment of debt as other income for current and prior periods in lieu of
classification as an extraordinary item as previously required.
There have been no further significant additions to or changes in the accounting
policies of the Company since December 31, 2001.
NOTE 4 - EARNINGS/(LOSS) PER SHARE - BASIC AND DILUTED
Basic earnings per share has been computed by dividing net income/(loss) by the
weighted average number of common shares outstanding. For the three month and
six month periods ended June 30, 2002 the effect of potential common stock is
antidilutive because a net loss exists, accordingly dilutive earnings per share
does not assume the exercise of outstanding stock options and warrants. For the
three month and six month periods ended June 30, 2001, dilutive earnings per
share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if dilutive stock options
and warrants were exercised using the treasury stock method, where applicable.
Weighted average shares including the dilutive effect of stock options of
1,535,603 and warrants of 162,537 amount to 20,803,590 for the three months
ended June 30, 2001. Weighted average shares including the potentially dilutive
effect of stock options of 2,972,414 and warrants of 184,616 would have amounted
to 26,233,288 for the three months ended June 30, 2002.
Weighted average shares including the dilutive effect of stock options of
1,557,709 and warrants of 170,420 amount to 19,968,572 for the six months ended
June 30, 2001. Weighted average shares including the potentially dilutive effect
of stock options of 3,129,219 and warrants of 194,133 would have amounted to
26,099,925 for the six months ended June 30, 2002.
NOTE 5 - BUSINESS SEGMENT INFORMATION
Euronet and its subsidiaries operate in two business segments: (1) a segment
that provides an independent shared ATM network and other electronic payment
processing services to banks, retail and financial institutions (the "Processing
Services Segment"); and (2) a segment that produces application software and
solutions for payment and transaction delivery systems (the "Software Solutions
Segment"). These business segments are supported by a corporate service segment,
which
provides corporate and other administrative services that are not directly
identifiable with the two business segments (the "Corporate Services Segment").
The accounting policies of each segment are the same as those described in the
summary of significant accounting policies. The Company evaluates performance
based on profit or loss from operations before income taxes not including
nonrecurring gains and losses. Prior period segment information has been
restated to conform to the current period's presentation.
Prior to June 10, 2001, the Processing Services Segment was referred to in
filings of the Company as the "Network Services Segment." This name change has
been made to conform to current industry terminology.
The Company divides the Processing Services Segment into three sub-segments: the
"Central European Sub-segment" (including Hungary, Poland, the Czech Republic,
Croatia, Greece and Romania), the "Western European Sub-segment" (including
Germany and the United Kingdom) and the "Other Operations Sub-segment"
(including Indonesia, Egypt and unallocated processing center costs).
The results from operations from France and DASH have been removed from
continuing operations for all reported periods in accordance with SFAS 144.
France was in previous filings reported under the Western European Sub-Segment
and DASH was previously reported under the Other Operations Sub-segment.
The following tables present the segment results of the Company's operations for
the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2002 and June 30, 2001.

NOTE 6 - CREDIT FACILITY
On June 28, 2000, the Company entered into an unsecured revolving credit
agreement (the "Credit Agreement") providing a facility of up to $4.0 million
from three shareholders as follows: DST Systems, Inc. in the amount of $2.4
million; Hungarian-American Enterprise Fund in the amount of $1.0 million; and
Michael J. Brown, the CEO and a Director of the Company, in the amount of $0.6
million. The facility was originally available to be drawn upon until December
28, 2000, and repayment of any draws was due June 28, 2001. The Credit Agreement
was amended and renewed for six-month periods on December 28, 2000 and June 28,
2001 and, as a result of such amendments, any amounts
drawn on the facility were to be repaid by June 28, 2002.
A commitment fee was paid for the initial facility of 100,000 warrants issued
pro-rata to the lenders with a warrant strike price set at the average share
price, as quoted on Nasdaq for 10 trading days prior to the warrant issue date,
less 10 percent. An additional 100,000, and 100,000 warrants, on the same terms,
were issued on January 2, 2001 and June 28, 2001, respectively, for the
subsequent extensions of the facility. The exercise price for Michael J. Brown
was originally the same as for the other lenders. It was revised by an amendment
to the Credit Agreement on January 27, 2002 to be no less than the full trading
price of our stock on Nasdaq as of the date of the agreement providing for grant
of the warrants, with the amount of the discount that would have resulted from
the original terms of the Credit Agreement to be paid to Mr. Brown in cash.
Warrants were issuable on similar terms and conditions for each draw on the
facility at the rate
of 80,000 warrants for each $1.0 million of funds drawn. On May 29, 2001, the
Company drew $2.0 million and issued 160,000 warrants in respect of such draw.
The exercise prices for the warrants for DST Systems and Hungarian-American
Enterprise Fund were $7.00 per share for the 100,000 warrants issued as of June
28, 2000, $4.12 per share for the 100,000 warrants issued as of December 29,
2000, $5.92 per share for the 160,000 warrants issued as of May 29, 2001 and
$6.70 per share for the 100,000 warrants issued as of June 28, 2001. The
exercise prices for the warrants for Michael J. Brown were $8.25 per share for
the 100,000 warrants issued as of June 28, 2000, $4.12 per share for the 100,000
warrants issued as of December 29, 2000, $7.05 per share for the 160,000
warrants issued as of May 29, 2001 and $9.00 per share for the 100,000 warrants
issued as of June 28, 2001.
Amounts outstanding under the facility accrued interest at 10 percent per annum,
payable quarterly. The Credit Agreement was not renewed in December 2001 and was
repaid in full on March 21, 2002.
In 2001, two participants in the Credit Agreement, in three separate
transactions, elected to exercise a total of 361,000 warrants for an equal
number of shares. The total amount of cash received from these transactions was
$2.1 million.
In May 2002, in two separate transactions, two participants in the Credit
Agreement elected to exercise warrants to purchase a total of 99,000 shares. The
total amount of cash received from these transactions was $0.7 million.
As of June 30, 2002, there are no further warrants outstanding related to this
credit facility.
NOTE 7 - EXTINGUISHMENT OF DEBT
During February 2001, the Company exchanged 3,000 units (principal amount of
Euro 1.5 million) of its 12 3/8% senior discount notes (the "Senior Discount
Notes") and 9,000 warrants for 95,000 shares of its common stock, par value
$0.02 per share. This exchange has been accounted for as an extinguishment of
debt with a resulting $0.5 million recognized as a gain on such extinguishment.
The extinguishment gain represents the difference between the allocated carrying
value of the debt and any related warrants extinguished ($1.1 million) and the
fair market value of the common stock issued ($0.6 million), offset by the
write-off of the allocated unamortized deferred financing costs. This
transaction was exempt from registration in accordance with the U.S. Securities
Act of 1933 (the "Act").
During March 2001, the Company exchanged 8,750 units (principal face amount of
Euro 4.5 million) of its Senior Discount Notes for two new senior discount notes
having an aggregate face amount of $3.0 million (the "New Notes"). The interest,
repayment and other terms of the New Notes are identical to those of the Senior
Discount Notes for which they were exchanged, except that (i) the principal
amount was reduced as indicated in the previous sentence, (ii) the Company has
the right to prepay the New Notes at any time at its option by paying the
"Accreted Value" of the Notes, and (iii) the New Notes are governed by a new
Note Purchase Agreement rather than the indenture under which the Senior
Discount Notes were issued; therefore, the New Notes are not covered by any of
the provisions of such indenture relating to action by the trustee, voting or
maintenance of listing on a stock exchange. This exchange has been accounted for
as an extinguishment of debt and issuance of new debt with a resulting $0.7
million recognized as a gain on such extinguishment. The
extinguishment gain represents the difference between the allocated carrying
value of the debt extinguished ($3.3 million) and the fair market value of the
New Notes issued ($2.5 million), offset by the write-off of the allocated
unamortized deferred financing costs ($0.1 million). This transaction was exempt
from registration in accordance with the Act. The Senior Discount Notes that
were acquired by the Company in the above exchanges have been retired.
During the three months ended June 30, 2001, in seven separate transactions, the
Company exchanged 45,600 units (principal amount of Euro 23.3 million) of its
Senior Discount Notes and 136,800 warrants for 1,596,000 shares of its common
stock, par value $0.02 per share. This exchange has been accounted for as an
extinguishment of debt with a resulting $7.4 million recognized as a gain on
such extinguishment. The extinguishment gain represents the difference between
the allocated carrying value of the debt and any related warrants extinguished
($17.8 million) and the fair market value of the common stock issued ($9.9
million), offset by the write-off of the allocated unamortized deferred
financing costs ($0.4 million). These transactions were exempt from registration
in accordance with the Act.
These transactions result in a combined gain of $8.6 million for the six months
ended June 30, 2001.
For a description of additional debt extinguishments during 2001, see Note 3 to
the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31,
2001.
During May 2002, in a single transaction, the Company exchanged 2,500 units
(principal amount of Euro 1.3 million) of its 12 3/8% Senior Discount Notes for
75,000 shares of its common stock, par value $0.02 per share. This exchange has
been accounted for as an extinguishment of debt with a resulting $0.1 million
recognized as a loss on such extinguishment. The loss on such extinguishment is
calculated as the difference between the allocated carrying value of the debt
and any related warrants extinguished ($1.2 million) and the fair market value
of the common stock issued ($1.3 million), offset by the write-off of the
allocated unamortized deferred financing costs. The transaction is exempt from
registration in accordance with the Act.
During June 2002, in a single transaction, the Company exchanged $0.8 million of
the New Notes for 56,483 shares of its common stock, par value $0.02 per share.
This exchange has been accounted for as an extinguishment of debt with no
significant gain or loss resulting from such extinguishment. The gain or loss on
such an extinguishment is calculated as the difference between the allocated
carrying value of the debt and any related warrants extinguished ($0.8 million)
and the fair market value of the common stock issued ($0.8 million). The
transaction is exempt from registration in accordance with the Act.
The Senior Discount Notes that were acquired by the Company in the above
exchanges have been retired.
Additionally, on July 19, 2002 the Company redeemed 17,700 units (principal
amount of Euro 9.0 million) of its 12 3/8% Senior Discounts Notes for $9.7
million in cash plus accrued interest. (See Note 12 - Subsequent Events to the
unaudited consolidated financial statements.)
NOTE 8 - RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
In January 2001, the Company entered into a Credit Facility Loan Agreement under
which it borrowed an aggregate of $0.5 million from Michael J. Brown, the CEO
and a Director of the
Company, in order to fund transactions on its Czech Republic ATM network.
Amounts advanced under this loan agreement mature six months from the date an
advance was made, but were extended for a second six-month period. The loans
were unsecured. Amounts advanced bore interest of 10% per annum. In January
2002, the loan of $0.5 million and related interest was paid in full.
In 2000, Michael J. Brown, the CEO and a Director of the Company, pledged
approximately $4.0 million of marketable securities (not including any common
stock of the Company) that he owns to obtain the release to the Company of cash
collateral in the amount of $4.8 million held by a bank providing cash to the
Company's ATM network in Hungary. No consideration was payable for providing
this security. On March 14, 2002, a letter of credit was obtained by the Company
in the amount of $5.0 million which replaced the above security pledge by
Michael J. Brown and a related $0.8 million letter of credit supported by a
certificate of deposit that had been obtained for the same purpose. The $5.0
million letter of credit has subsequently been replaced by a new letter of
credit for $2.0 million. (See Note 12 - Subsequent Events to the unaudited
consolidated financial statements.)
For the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2002, the Company
recorded $0.1 million in revenue related to CashNet Telecommunications Egypt SAE
("CashNet"), a 10% owned affiliate, with respect to a data processing and
technical services agreement. CashNet was formed to own and/or operate and
manage ATM machines and point of sale terminals for both their own account and
for the account of customer banks. The Company currently monitors and processes
transactions for all CashNet ATMs.
For the three months ended June 30, 2002, the Company recorded $0.1 million in
revenue related to Europlanet.
NOTE 9 - DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS
Sale of US Processing Services Business
On January 4, 2002, the Company concluded an Asset Purchase Agreement with AIS,
whereby EFT Network Services, LLC (also known as DASH) sold substantially all of
its assets to AIS for $6.8 million in cash. Of this amount, $0.7 million is
being held in escrow under the terms of a separate escrow agreement to provide
for the payment of any damages that might arise from any breach of the
representations and warranties contained in the Asset Purchase Agreement and
certain post-closing adjustments. DASH is a wholly owned subsidiary of Euronet
USA Inc., which is a wholly owned subsidiary of Euronet Worldwide, Inc. DASH,
Euronet USA and AIS are parties to the Asset Purchase Agreement. The Company
recorded a pre-tax gain of approximately $4.8 million related to this
transaction. As discussed in Note 10, the Company entered into a separate
Software License Agreement with AIS on January 4, 2002.
Assets/Liabilities From Discontinued Operations
On July 15, 2002, the Company transferred substantially all of the non-current
assets and capital lease obligations of its processing business in France to
Atos. Non-current assets and capital lease obligations related to the France
business have been segregated and continue to be recorded in the financial
statements at carrying value as of December 31, 2001 June 30, 2002. An estimated
loss on disposal of the France business of $0.1 million was recorded in the
second quarter.
As a result of the above, the results from operations from France and DASH have
been removed from continuing operations for all reported periods in accordance
with SFAS 144. France was previously reported under the Western European
Sub-segment and DASH was previously reported under the Other Operations
Sub-segment. The following pro-forma financial statements show balance sheet
extracts as of June 30, 2002 and December 31, 2001 as well as the summary
operating results of discontinued operations for the three months ended June 30,
2002 and 2001 and the six months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001.

NOTE 10 - SIGNIFICANT SOFTWARE LICENSE AGREEMENT
On January 4, 2002, the Company entered into a significant Software License
Agreement (the "License Agreement") whereby Euronet USA granted AIS a
nonexclusive license to use, distribute and develop versions 1.5 and 2.2 of
Euronet USA's GoldNet ITM ATM Network Processing Software ("GoldNet Software").
The License Agreement includes certain territorial and other restrictions on the
use and distribution of the GoldNet Software by AIS. Under the terms of the
License Agreement, AIS has agreed to pay license fees of $5.0 million. In
January 2002, 50% of the license fees were received, with remaining payments of
40% upon acceptance of the software, and 10% twelve months from the date of the
agreement, subject to completion of certain maintenance and support services.
The License Agreement does not restrict the ability of Euronet USA to continue
to sell its GoldNet Software, except that Euronet USA may not sell to former
DASH customers or new AIS network processing customers. Revenue from the license
fee and related services will be recognized under the percentage of completion
contract accounting method. The Company recognized $1.6 million in revenues
associated with the License Agreement during the three months ended June 30,
2002, and $2.9 million during the six months ended June 30, 2002. The Company
expects to recognize approximately 70% to 80% of the fees in revenues during
2002 with the remaining to be recognized in 2003.
NOTE 11 - PRIVATE PLACEMENT
On February 6, 2002 we entered into seven subscription agreements for the sale
of an aggregate of 625,000 new common shares of the Company. These agreements
were signed with certain accredited investors in transactions exempt from
registration under the United States Securities Act of 1933 (the "Act") pursuant
to exemptions under Section 4(2) and Regulation D of the Act. The purchase price
of each share was $20.00. The aggregate amount of proceeds to the Company from
the private placement was $12.5 million. Net proceeds after $0.8 million in
commission fees, legal fees, and Nasdaq registration and filing fees were
approximately $11.7 million.
NOTE 12 - SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
On July 9, 2002, a $2.0 million letter of credit was issued to replace a
previously issued $5.0 million letter of credit. The $2.0 million letter of
credit (the New Letter of Credit) reflects the change in the minimum requirement
stipulated by the beneficiary. The $5.0 million letter of credit was fully
secured by cash collateral. This cash is classified as Restricted Cash as of
June 30, 2002. Upon the issuance of the New Letter of Credit, the cash
collateral was decreased accordingly to $2.0 million.
On July 15, 2002, the Company transferred substantially all of the non-current
assets and capital lease obligations of its processing business in France to
Atos. The France business is classified as discontinued operations in the
financial statements. Non-current assets and capital lease obligations related
to the France business have been segregated and continue to be recorded in the
financial statements at carrying value as of December 31, 2002 and June 30, 2002
(see Note 9). An estimated loss on disposal of the France business of $0.1
million was recorded in the second quarter.
On July 19 2002, the Company exercised its right to partially redeem its 12 3/8%
Senior Discount Notes. The Company redeemed 17,700 units (principle amount of
Euro 9.0 million) of the Senior Discount Notes for $9.7 million cash plus
accrued interest from July 1, 2002 through July 18, 2002. This partial
redemption has been accounted for as an extinguishment of debt with
approximately
$0.8 million to be recognized as a loss on such extinguishment. The cash payment
includes an early redemption premium of approximately 6% as defined in the
Senior Discount Notes indenture. No warrants associated with these units were
repurchased or otherwise extinguished in this transaction.
As of July 1 2002, the Company may at any time exercise its right to partially
or fully redeem the Senior Discount Notes with cash without restriction. Any
redemption is subject to an early redemption premium as defined in the Senior
Discount Notes indenture. The early redemption premium decreases throughout the
term of the Senior Discount Notes.
NOTE 13 - RECLASSIFICATION
Certain amounts have been reclassified in the prior periods' unaudited
consolidated financial statements to conform to the current periods' unaudited
consolidated financial statements presentation.
As described in Note 3, gains and losses from the extinguishment of debt were
previously classified as extraordinary items (net of tax). In accordance with
SFAS 145, these amounts have been reclassified and reported as other income
(pre-tax).
As described in Note 9, France and DASH have been removed from continuing
operations and classified under discontinued operations. The assets and
liabilities associated with the sale have been classified under assets and
liabilities from discontinued operations. All operating amounts, ATM counts,
transaction numbers and statistics reported in this filing exclude France and
DASH.
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS
OVERVIEW
Euronet Worldwide, Inc. is a leading provider of secure electronic financial
transaction solutions. We provide financial payment middleware, financial
network gateways, outsourcing, and consulting services to financial
institutions, retailers and mobile phone operators. We operate an independent
automated teller machine, or ATM, network of 2,840 ATMs in Europe (and until
January 2002 in the United States). In addition, through our software subsidiary
Euronet USA Inc., we offer a suite of integrated software solutions for
electronic payment and transaction delivery systems. We offer comprehensive
electronic payment solutions consisting of ATM network participation, outsourced
ATM, POS, and debit card management and transaction software. Our principal
customers are banks and other companies such as mobile phone operators that
require electronic financial transaction processing services. With nine offices
in Europe, one in Indonesia, one in Egypt and two in the United States, Euronet
serves clients in more than 60 countries around the world. We changed our name
from Euronet Services Inc. to Euronet Worldwide, Inc. in August 2001.
We currently operate in two business segments: the "Processing Services Segment"
provides secure processing of electronic financial transactions, and the
"Software Solutions Segment" produces application software for the processing of
secure electronic financial transactions. The Processing Services Segment
comprises our proprietary ATM network, outsourced management of ATMs for banks,
and various new processing services that we provide for banks and mobile phone
companies through our ATM network and managed ATMs, such as mobile phone
recharge services. Our
Software Solutions Segment provides transaction processing software solutions to
banks that permit them to operate ATMs and point-of-sale terminals and process
financial transactions from those devices, interactive voice response systems,
the Internet, and mobile phones.
Our management divides the Processing Services Segment into three geographic
sub-segments:
. Central European Sub-segment (including Hungary, Poland, the Czech
Republic, Croatia, Greece and Romania)
. Western European Sub-segment (including Germany and the United Kingdom)
. Other Operations Sub-segment (including Indonesia, Egypt and unallocated
processing center costs)
We also operate a "Corporate Services Segment" that provides these two business
segments with corporate and other administrative services that are not directly
identifiable with them. The accounting policies of each segment are the same as
those described in the summary of significant accounting policies. We evaluate
performance based on profit or loss from continuing operations before income
taxes not including nonrecurring gains and losses.
On January 4, 2002, we sold substantially all of the assets of our ATM
processing business in the United States, known as DASH, to ALLTEL Information
Services, Inc. for $6.8 million in cash. ALLTEL Information Services, Inc. is a
wholly owned subsidiary of ALLTEL Corporation. Approximately $0.7 million of the
proceeds is being held in escrow under the terms of a separate escrow agreement
to cover certain post-closing adjustments and any damages that might arise from
breach of the representations and warranties contained in the purchase agreement
with ALLTEL Information Services, Inc. We recorded a pre-tax gain of
approximately $4.8 million related to this transaction.
On July 15, 2002, we transferred substantially all of the non-current assets and
capital lease obligations of its processing business in France to Atos.
Non-current assets and capital lease obligations related to the France business
have been segregated and continue to be recorded in the financial statements at
carrying value as of December 31, 2001 and June 30, 2002. An estimated loss on
disposal of the France business of $0.1 million was recorded in the second
quarter.
In previous filings, we reported France under the Western European Sub-segment
and DASH under the Other Operations Sub-segment. All operating amounts, ATM
counts, transaction numbers and statistics reported in this filing exclude
France and DASH.

COMPARISON OF OPERATING RESULTS FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2002 AND
JUNE 30, 2001 AND THE SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2002 AND JUNE 30, 2001
PROCESSING SERVICES SEGMENT
Revenues
Total segment revenues increased 18% or $2.0 million to $12.9 million for the
three months ended June 30, 2002 from $10.9 million for the three months ended
June 30, 2001, and increased 19% or $4.0 million to $25.1 million for the six
months ended June 30, 2002 from $21.1 million for the six months ended June 30,
2001. The increase in revenues is due primarily to the significant increase in
transaction volumes and an increase in the number of ATMs that we operated
during these periods. We operated 2,247 ATMs as of June 30, 2001 and processed
13.8 million transactions for the three months ended June 30, 2001 and 26.4
million transactions for the six months ended June 30, 2001. As of June 30,
2002, we increased our ATM network by 593 ATMs, or 26%, from June 30, 2001 to a
total of 2,840 ATMs. We own 82% of this total number of ATMs, while banks and
other financial institutions own the remaining 18%, which we operate through
management agreements. We processed 18.7 million transactions for the three
months ended June 30, 2002, an increase of 4.9 million transactions, or 36% over
the three months ended June 30, 2001. We processed 34.3 million transactions for
the six months ended June 30, 2002, an increase of 7.9 million transactions, or
30%,
over the six months ended June 30, 2001. The increase in transaction growth is
greater than the increase in ATM growth and revenue growth. During this period,
there was an increase in ATMs that we operate under ATM management agreements
relative to ATMs we own. The revenues generated from ATM management agreements
often have a substantial monthly recurring fee as compared to a per transaction
fee for our owned ATMs. This recurring fee generates both fixed and variable
revenue components. As a result, transactions on these machines can increase
faster than the revenues.
Revenues for the Central European Sub-segment increased 10% or $0.6 million to
$6.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2002 from $5.9 million for the
three months ended June 30, 2001. The increase in revenues is largely the result
of an increase in the number of ATMs operated by us from 1,455 at June 30, 2001
to 1,701 at June 30, 2002, and to increased transaction volumes. Our ability to
continue to increase revenues at this rate depends on our ability to sign new
contracts to operate more ATMs for banks and financial institutions.
Revenues for the Central European Sub-segment increased 11% or $1.3 million to
$12.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002 from $11.4 million for the
six months ended June 30, 2001. The increase in revenues is largely the result
of an increase in the number of ATMs operated by us from 1,455 at June 30, 2001
to 1,701 at June 30, 2002, and increased transaction volumes.
Revenues for the Western European Sub-segment increased 26% or $1.3 million to
$6.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2002 from $5.0 million for the
three months ended June 30, 2001. The increase in revenues is largely the result
of an increase in the number of ATMs we operate in this region from 792 at June
30, 2001 to 1,059 at June 30, 2002, and to increased transaction volumes. During
this period we also increased transaction fees in certain markets.
Revenues for the Western European Sub-segment increased 23% or $2.2 million to
$11.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002 from $9.7 million for the
six months ended June 30, 2001. The increase in revenues is largely the result
of an increase in the number of ATMs we operate in this region from 792 at June
30, 2001 to 1,059 at June 30, 2002, and to increased transaction volumes. During
this period we also increased transaction fees in certain markets.
Of the net 267 ATMs added from June 30, 2001 to June 30, 2002, to the network in
Western Europe 259 ATMs were located in the United Kingdom. Our increase in
rollout of ATMs in the United Kingdom during 2001 was based on the ability to
charge a transaction fee directly to the person using the ATMs in this market.
We expect to significantly reduce the further rollout of ATMs in 2002 in the
United Kingdom after reaching our expected levels of 800 to 900 ATMs. Future ATM
deployment in the United Kingdom depends on our ability to find additional sites
for ATMs that are capable of highly profitable transaction levels. Some machines
we have installed recently in the United Kingdom had transaction levels that are
lower than those of machines installed earlier. This is partially due to lower
transaction levels at ATM machines at sites at where cash is replenished by
merchants and certain other sites.
Although these ATMs are profitable, they are generating returns that are lower
than we expected. We have implemented a number of responses to this
situation, including using lower cost machines at these sites, reducing our
rollout of new machines and relocating machines with low transaction volumes in
the United Kingdom. The decision to reduce our rate of rollout of ATMs or the
continuing weakness of performance of certain ATMs may result in a decrease in
growth in our revenues and operating profits in this market.
Revenues for the Other Operations Sub-segment were $0.1 million for the three
months ended June 30, 2002 as compared to nil for the three months ended June
30, 2001 and $0.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002 as compared to
nil for the three months ended June 30, 2001. The increase in revenues in the
six months periods is mainly a result of one time set up revenues associated
with contracts in Egypt and Indonesia, where we are just beginning operations.
We previously reported our revenue from the DASH network under this segment but
we sold this network in January 2002 (see Note 9 to the unaudited consolidated
financial statements). Therefore, no further revenues will be realized in
continuing operations from the DASH business for the year 2002.
Of total segment revenue, approximately 89% is from ATMs we own for the six
months ended June 30, 2002 and 91% for the six months ended June 30, 2001. Of
total transactions processed, approximately 83% is attributable to ATMs we own
for the three months ended June 30, 2002 and 87% for the three months ended June
30, 2001. We believe the shift from a largely proprietary, Euronet-owned ATM
network to a more balanced mix between proprietary ATMs and customer-owned ATMs
is a positive development and will provide higher marginal returns on
investments.
We charge fees for three types of ATM transactions that are currently processed
on our ATMs:
. Cash withdrawals
. Balance inquiries
. Transactions not completed because the relevant card issuer does not
give authorization
Transaction fees for cash withdrawals vary from market to market but generally
range from $0.60 to $2.15 per transaction. Transaction fees for the other two
types of transactions are generally substantially less. We include in Processing
Services Segment revenues transaction fees payable under the electronic recharge
solutions that we sell. Fees for recharge transactions vary substantially from
market to market and are based on the specific prepaid solution and the
denomination of prepaid hours purchased. Generally transaction fees vary from
$0.90 to $1.80 per prepaid mobile recharge purchase and are shared with the
financial institution and the mobile operator. These fees may come under pricing
pressure in the future.
Operating Expenses
Total segment operating expenses increased 7%, or $0.7 million to $11.4 million
for the three months ended June 30, 2002 from $10.7 million for the three months
ended June 30, 2001. The increase is primarily due to increased salaries to
support our operational growth during the period.
Total segment operating expenses increased 8%, or $1.6 million to $22.8 million
for the six months ended June 30, 2002 from $21.2 million for the six months
ended June 30, 2001. The increase is primarily due to increased salaries to
support our operational growth during the period.
Operating expenses for the Central European Sub-segment decreased 2% or $0.1
million to $5.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2002 from $5.9
million for the three months ended June 30, 2001 and decreased 1% or $0.1
million to $11.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002 from $11.5
million for the six months ended June 30, 2001. The decrease in operating
expenses for the three month periods ended June 30, 2002 is a result of lower
direct operating expenses of $0.2 million offset by increased salary expenses of
$0.1 million. We increased the number of ATMs that we operate in this region
from 1,455 at June 30, 2001 to 1,701 at June 30, 2002, and increased transaction
volumes. Operating expenses decreased in spite of increasing ATMs and
transactions due to operational efficiencies and other expense reductions.
Operating expenses for the Western European Sub-segment increased 26% or $1.1
million to $5.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2002 from $4.2
million for the three months ended June 30, 2001 and increased 22% or $1.9
million to $10.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002 from $8.5
million for the six months ended June 30, 2001. The increase in operating
expenses was largely the result of an increase in the number of ATMs that we
operated over this period, increased direct operating costs and staff increases
in our expanding UK market. We increased the number of ATMs that we operate in
this region from 792 at June 30, 2001 to 1,059 at June 30, 2002, and transaction
volumes increased as a result.
We have not included France in this segment because we transferred substantially
all of the non-current assets and capital lease obligations of its processing
business in France on July 15, 2002, as further described in Note 9 to the
unaudited consolidated financial statements.
Operating expenses for the Other Operations Sub-segment decreased 43% or $0.3
million to $0.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2002 from $0.7
million for the three months ended June 30, 2001, this decrease is mainly the
result of increased allocation of switching fees to direct operating expenses in
the Central and Western Sub-segments. Operating expenses decreased 8% or $0.1
million to $1.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002 from $1.2 million
for the six months ended June 30, 2001. This is due to increased allocation of
switching fee to direct operating expenses in the Central and Western
Sub-segments, offset by one time operating expenses associated with Indonesia in
the three months ended March 31, 2002. We have not included the DASH network
expenses in this segment because we sold DASH in January 2002 as further
described in Note 9 to the unaudited consolidated financial statements.
Direct operating costs in the Processing Services Segment consist primarily of:
. ATM installation costs
. ATM site rentals
. Costs associated with maintaining ATMs
. ATM telecommunications
. Interest on network cash and cash delivery
. Security services to ATMs
These costs increased to $6.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2002
from $6.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2001 and increased 6% or
$0.7 million to $13.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002 from $12.6
million for the six months ended June 30, 2001. This increase is primarily
attributable to operating the increased number of ATMs mentioned above. Also,
allocations within the Euronet operating companies were made to charge the ATM
network operations for transaction switching fees and bank connection fees
incurred by our central processing center in Budapest. These allocations totaled
$1.3 million and $1.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2002 and June
30, 2001, respectively. These allocations totaled $2.6 million and $2.0 million
for the six months ended June 30, 2002 and June 30, 2001, respectively.

As a percentage of this segment's revenue, direct operating costs fell from 58%
for the three months ended June 30, 2001 to 52% for the three months ended June
30, 2002 and decreased from 60% for the six months ended June 30, 2001 to 53%
for the six months ended June 30, 2002. On a per-ATM basis, the direct operating
costs fell 16% from $2,814 per ATM for the three months ended June 30, 2001 to
$2,359 per ATM for the three months ended June 30, 2002 and decreased from
$5,622 per ATM for the six months ended June 30, 2001 to $4,688 per ATM for the
six months ended June 30, 2002. On a per-transaction basis, the direct operating
costs fell 22% from $0.46 per transaction for the three months ended June 30,
2001 to $0.36 per transaction for the three months ended June 30, 2002 and
decreased from $0.48 per transaction for the six months ended June 30, 2001 to
$0.39 per transaction for the six months ended June 30, 2002. Costs per
transaction have decreased because of the combination of increasing transaction
volumes on existing sites and having a large fixed direct operating cost
structure on these sites. Increasing transaction volumes on existing sites that
have fixed direct operating expenses decreases our costs per ATM and per
transaction. In addition, there was an increase in the number of ATMs that we
operate under ATM management agreements, and these ATMs generally have lower
direct operating expenses (telecommunications, cash delivery, security,
maintenance and site rental).
Segment salaries and benefits increased 13% to $2.6 million for the three months
ended June 30, 2002 from $2.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2001
and increased 24% to $5.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002 from
$4.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2001. This increase reflects the
continued expansion of the operations to Western European markets with
significantly higher labor costs than Central Europe, as well as increases in
staff levels at the processing center, which were required to maintain quality
service in line with rising transaction volumes. As a percentage of this
segment's revenue, salaries and benefits decreased from 21% for the three months
ended June 30, 2001 to 20% for the three months ended June 30, 2002 and
increased from 20% for the six months ended June 30, 2001 to 21% for the six
months ended June 30, 2002.
Selling, general and administrative costs allocated to the Processing Services
Segment decreased by $0.2 million from $0.3 million for the three months ended
June 30, 2001 to $0.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2002 and
decreased 50% to $0.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002 from $0.6
million for the six months ended June 30, 2001.
Depreciation and amortization increased marginally from $1.9 million for the
three months ended June 30, 2001 to $2.0 million for the three months ended June
30, 2002 and increased 5% to $4.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002
from $3.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2001.
Operating Income/(Loss)
As a result of the factors discussed above, the Processing Services Segment as a
whole improved operating income by $1.4 million, reporting operating income of
$1.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2002 as compared to operating
income of $0.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2001 and reporting
operating income of $2.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002 as
compared to an operating loss of $0.1 million for the six months ended June 30,
2001. The Central European Sub-segment improved operating income by $0.7
million, reporting operating income of $0.8 million for the three months ended
June 30, 2002 compared to operating income of $0.1 million for the three months
ended June 30, 2001 and operating income of $1.3 million for the six months
ended June 30, 2002 as compared to an operating loss of $0.1 million for the six
months ended June 30, 2001. The Western European Sub-segment reported operating
income of $1.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2002 up from
operating income of $0.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2001 and
operating income increased 25% to $1.5 million for the six months ended June 30,
2002 from $1.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2001. The Other
Operations Sub-segment reduced its operating loss by $0.4 million to a loss of
$0.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2002 from $0.7 million for the
three months ended June 30, 2001 and operating losses decreased 58% to $0.5
million for the six months ended June 30, 2002 from $1.2 million for the six
months ended June 30, 2001.
SOFTWARE SOLUTIONS SEGMENT
Revenues
Revenues of the Software Solutions Segment were $4.8 million before
inter-segment eliminations for the three months ended June 30, 2002 as compared
to $4.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2001. Segment revenues were
$9.7 million before inter-segment eliminations for the six months ended June 30,
2002 as compared to $8.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2001.
Software revenues are grouped into four broad categories:
. Software license fees
. Professional service fees
. Maintenance fees
. Hardware sales
Software license fees are the initial fees we charge to license our proprietary
application software to customers. We charge professional service fees for
providing customization, installation and consulting services to our customers.
Software maintenance fees are the ongoing fees we charge for maintenance of our
customers' software products. Hardware sales revenues are derived from the sale
of computer products. The components of software solutions revenue for the three
month and six month periods ended June 30, 2002 and 2001 were:

Software license fees $2,327 $ 885 $4,515 $2,032
Professional service fees 1,205 1,734 2,046 3,405
Maintenance fees 1,182 1,211 2,591 2,412
Hardware sales 47 363 517 365
------ ------ ------ ------
Total $4,761 $4,193 $9,669 $8,214
====== ====== ====== ======
Software license fees increased $1.4 million to $2.3 million for the three month
period ended June 30, 2002 from the same period in 2001, and increased $2.5
million to $4.5 million for the six month period ended June 30, 2002 from the
same period in 2001. These increases are due primarily to license fees that we
obtained as part of the software license agreement with AIS (see Note 10 to the
unaudited consolidated financial statements). We recognized $1.6 million and
$2.9 million of revenues related to the AIS software license agreement during
the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2002, respectively. We believe
that the revenues of the Software Solutions Segment will increasingly be derived
from our upgraded and new set of software solutions, including our wireless
banking solutions.
The decrease in professional service fees of $0.5 million is due to fewer
billable hours, service and consulting contract work that we performed in
connection with the sale and installation of software during the three months
ended June 30, 2002 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2001. Certain
professional service fees are bundled in software license contracts and reported
as license fees using the percentage of completion method.
The slight increase in maintenance fees from the six months ended June 30, 2001
to the same period in 2002 is due to the completion of several large contracts
since June 2001, thereby initiating the maintenance aspect of these contracts,
partially offset by termination of maintenance contracts by existing customers.
We intend to secure long-term revenue streams through multi-year maintenance
agreements with existing and new customers.
The decrease in hardware sales in 2002 from 2001 is mainly attributed to the
timing of hardware sales. Hardware sales are generally sporadic as they are
generally an incidental component to our software license and professional
services offerings. Hardware sales for the six months ended June 30, 2002
includes one significant hardware sale of $0.3 million related to the AIS
software license agreement. The cost for this item is included in direct costs
as described below.
Software Sales Backlog
We define "software sales backlog" as fees specified in contracts, which we have
executed and for which we expect recognition of the related revenue within one
year. At June 30, 2002, the revenue backlog was $4.2 million as compared to $1.7
million at June 30, 2001. This increase resulted principally from increased
sales during the three months ended June 30, 2002 and from the AIS software
license agreement, which comprises approximately $1.1 million of the balance.
There can be no assurance that the contracts included in backlog will actually
generate the specified revenues or that the revenues will be generated within
the one-year period.
Operating Expenses
Software Solutions Segment operating expenses consist primarily of:
. Salaries and benefits
. Selling, general and administrative expenses
. Depreciation and amortization.
Total segment operating expenses were relatively unchanged for the three months
ended June 30, 2002 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2001. Total
segment operating expenses decreased $1.4 million for the six months ended June

June 30, 2001. The components of Software Solutions Segment operating costs for
the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2002 and the same periods in 2001
were:

------ ------ ------ ------
Total operating expenses $4,218 $4,248 $8,397 $9,807
====== ====== ====== ======
Direct operating costs consist of hardware costs and distributor commissions.
The decrease in direct operating costs of $0.2 million for the three months
ended June 30, 2002 from the three months ended June 30, 2001 is due to a
decrease in distributor commissions. Direct costs remained relatively unchanged
for the six months ended June 30, 2002 from the six months ended June 30, 2001.
The six-month period ended June 30, 2002 includes the cost of the one computer
hardware sale as discussed above.
Salary and benefits increased $0.1 million for the three-month period ended June
30, 2002 from the three-month period ended June 30, 2001, and decreased $1.2
million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2002 from the six-month period
ended June 30, 2001. During the first quarter of 2001 we reduced our workforce
significantly with the primary objective of reducing costs in our Software
Solutions Segment to bring them more in line with the anticipated revenue.
Because the workforce reductions involved payment of severance equal to several
weeks' salary to most employees, the financial impact of these reductions was
greater in the second and subsequent quarters of 2001.
The decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses for the three
months ended June 30, 2002 from the three months ended June 30, 2001, and the
six months ended June 30, 2002 from the six months ended June 30, 2001 was
primarily due to our efforts at controlling expenses. Some of the cost
reductions were one-time credits and incentives that are not expected to
continue in the future.
Depreciation and amortization expense increased for the three months ended June
30, 2002 from the three months ended June 30, 2001 and the six months ended June
30, 2002 from the six months ended June 30, 2001 due to the addition of $0.4
million in leasehold improvements in late 2001 and the first quarter of 2002, as
well as the addition of $1.0 million in capitalized software development costs
during 2001. Depreciation of improvements and amortization of capitalized
software development costs were $0.2 million for the three months ended June 30,
2002, and $0.3 for the six months ended June 30, 2002.
We have made an ongoing commitment to the development, maintenance and
enhancement of our products and services. As a result of this commitment we
invested substantial amounts in research and development. In particular, we
invested and will continue to invest in new software products that permit
additional features and transactions on our ATM network. In addition, we
continue to invest in the ongoing development of products that were recently
introduced to the market. Our research and development costs for computer
products to be sold, leased or otherwise marketed were $0.9 million for the
three months ended June 30, 2002 as compared to $1.1 million for the three
months ended June 30, 2001. Our research and development costs for computer
products to be sold, leased
or otherwise marketed were $1.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002
as compared to $2.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2001.
We capitalize software development costs in accordance with our accounting
policy of capitalizing development costs on a product-by-product basis once
technological feasibility is established. We capitalized $0.1 million in the
three months ended June 30, 2002, as compared to $0.2 million capitalized during
the three months ended June 30, 2001. We capitalized $0.2 million in the six
months ended June 30, 2002, as compared to $0.2 million capitalized during the
six months ended June 30, 2001. We establish technological feasibility of
computer software products when we complete all planning, designing, coding, and
testing activities necessary to establish that the product can be produced to
meet its design specifications, including functions, features, and technical
performance requirements.
Of the total capitalized research and development costs, $0.2 million and $0.1
million were amortized in the three months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001,
respectively. In the six months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001, $0.3 million and
$0.1 million were amortized.
Operating Income/(Loss)
The Software Solutions Segment earned an operating income of $0.5 million for
the three months ended June 30, 2002 as compared to an operating loss of $0.1
million for the three months ended June 30, 2001 and earned operating income of
$1.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002 as compared to an operating
loss of $1.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2001 as a result of the
factors discussed above.
CORPORATE SERVICES
Operating Expenses
Operating expenses for Corporate Services decreased to $1.1 million for the
three months ended June 30, 2002 from $1.9 million for the three months ended
June 30, 2001. The components of this segment's operating costs for the three
and six month periods ended June 30, 2002 and the same periods in 2001 were:

Depreciation and amortization (86) 36 (44) 71
------ ------ ------ ------
Total operating expenses $1,084 $1,859 $2,397 $3,309
====== ====== ====== ======
The reduction of $0.5 million in salaries and benefits for the three months
ended June 30, 2002 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2001 is due to
workforce reductions during the three months ended March 31, 2001. Because the
workforce reductions involved payment of severance equal to several weeks'
salary to most employees, the financial impact of these reductions was greater
in the second and subsequent quarters of 2001. Additionally, certain salary
incentives are included in 2001.
NON-OPERATING RESULTS
Interest Income
Interest income was $0.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2002 as
compared to nil for the three months ended June 30, 2001 and $0.2 million for
the six months ended June 30, 2002 compared to $0.1 million for the six months
ended June 30, 2001. The increase is primarily due to interest on short-term
investments of cash equivalents.
Interest Expense
Interest expense decreased to $1.7 million for the three months ended June 30,
2002 from $2.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2001 and decreased to
$3.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002 compared to $5.0 million for
the six months ended June 30, 2001. The decrease from 2001 to 2002 was primarily
due to a reduction in the Senior Discount Notes as a result of significant
debt/equity swaps during 2001 that are more fully described in Note 7 to the
unaudited consolidated financial statements.
Foreign Exchange Gain
We had a net foreign exchange loss of $3.8 million for the three months ended
June 30, 2002, compared to a net foreign exchange gain of $3.2 million for the
three months ended June 30, 2001 and net foreign exchange loss $3.4 million for
the six months ended June 30, 2002 compared to a net foreign exchange gain of
$7.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2001. Exchange gains and losses
that result from re-measurement of some of our assets and liabilities are
recorded in determining net loss. A portion of the assets and liabilities is
denominated in Euros, including capital lease obligations, notes payable
(including the notes issued in our public bond offering), and cash and cash
equivalents. It is our policy to attempt to match local currency receivables and
payables. The foreign currency denominated assets and liabilities give rise to
foreign exchange gains and losses as a result of U.S. dollar to local currency
exchange movements.
Gain / (Loss) on Early Extinguishment of Debt
We had a loss on early extinguishment of debt of $0.2 million for the three
months ended June 30, 2002, compared to a gain on early extinguishment of debt
of $7.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2001. We had a loss on early
extinguishment of debt of $0.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002,
compared to a gain on early extinguishment of debt of $8.6 million for the six
months ended June 30, 2001. The 2001 gains were the result of significant note
payable extinguishment transactions as described in Note 7 to the unaudited
consolidated financial statements. Additionally, the note payables extinguished
in 2001 had significantly lower market value than the note payables extinguished
in 2002.
The Senior Discount Notes that we re-acquired in the above exchanges have been
retired. We will consider additional repurchases of our senior discount notes if
opportunities arise to complete these transactions on favorable terms.
Minority Interest
We recorded the minority interest in losses from P. T. Euronet Sigma Nusantara,
an Indonesia company. We own 80% of P. T. Sigma Nusantara's shares.
Discontinued Operations
On January 4, 2002, we sold substantially all of the DASH assets to AIS for $6.8
million in cash. Of this amount, $0.7 million is being held in escrow under the
terms of a separate escrow agreement to cover certain post-closing adjustments
and any damages that might arise from breach of the representations and
warranties contained in the purchase agreement with AIS. We recorded a pre-tax
gain of approximately $4.8 million related to this transaction. We reported
income from the discontinued operations of DASH of nil and $0.3 million for the
three months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively.
On July 15, 2002, we transferred substantially all of the non-current assets and
capital lease obligations of its processing business in France to Atos for 1
Euro plus reimbursement of certain operating expenses. An estimated loss on
disposal of the France business of $0.1 million was recorded in the second
quarter of 2002. The income from France operations reported as discontinued
operations for the three months ended June 30, 2002 were $0.1 million as
compared to a loss of $0.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2001.
As a result of the above, we have removed the operating results of France and
DASH from continuing operations for all reported periods in accordance with SFAS
144. We previously reported France under the Western European Sub-segment and
DASH under the Other Operations Sub-segment.
Net Income/(Loss)
We recorded a net loss of $4.7 million during the three months ended June 30,
2002 from a net income of $7.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2001,
as explained above.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
We financed our historical operations and capital expenditures primarily through
the proceeds from the 1998 issue of Euro denominated 12 3/8% notes payable, the
1997 public equity offering, equipment lease financing and private placements of
equity securities. We have used the net proceeds of these transactions, together
with revenues from operations and interest income, to fund aggregate net losses
of approximately $124 million, investments in property, plant and equipment of
approximately $64.9 million, and acquisitions of $24.6 million.
At June 30, 2002, we had cash and cash equivalents of $20.5 million. We had $6.2
million of restricted cash held as security with respect to cash provided by
banks participating in our ATM network, to cover guarantees on financial
instruments and as deposits with customs officials.
On June 28, 2000 we entered into an unsecured revolving credit agreement
providing a facility of up to $4.0 million from three shareholders, one of which
was Michael J. Brown, Euronet's CEO and a director. This credit facility was
renewed twice and was due and payable on June 28, 2002. We issued 300,000
warrants in conjunction with the issuance and extensions to this facility. On
May 29, 2001, we drew $2.0 million and issued an additional 160,000 warrants
based on the terms of the credit agreement. The warrant strike price was set at
the average share price, as quoted on Nasdaq for 10 trading days prior to the
warrant issue date, less 10%. The exercise price for Michael J. Brown was
originally the same as for the other lenders. It was revised by an amendment to
the Credit Agreement on January 27, 2002 to be no less than the full trading
price of our stock on Nasdaq as of
the date of the agreement providing for grant of the warrants, with the amount
of the discount that would have resulted from the original terms of the Credit
Agreement to be paid to Mr. Brown in cash.
The exercise prices for the warrants for the other two shareholders were $7.00
per share for the 100,000 warrants issued as of June 28, 2000, $4.12 per share
for the 100,000 warrants issued as of December 29, 2000, $5.92 per share for the
160,000 warrants issued as of May 29, 2001 and $6.70 per share for the 100,000
warrants issued as of June 28, 2001. The exercise prices for the warrants for
Michael J. Brown were $8.25 per share for the 100,000 warrants issued as of June
28, 2000, $4.12 per share for the 100,000 warrants issued as of December 29,
2000, $7.05 per share for the 160,000 warrants issued as of May 29, 2001 and
$9.00 per share for the 100,000 warrants issued as of June 28, 2001.
In 2001, two participants in the revolving credit agreement elected to exercise
a total of 361,000 warrants for an equal number of shares. We received a total
amount of $2.1 million in cash from these transactions.
In May 2002, two participants in the revolving credit agreement elected to
exercise a total of 99,000 warrants for an equal number of shares. We received a
total amount of $0.7 million in cash from these transactions.
We elected not to renew the credit agreement in December 2001 and, on March 21,
2002, we repaid the outstanding credit facility debt in full. Payment consisted
of $2.0 million in principal and interest. As of June 30, 2002, no warrants
remain outstanding with respect to this credit facility.
In January 2001, we entered into an unsecured credit facility loan agreement
under which we borrowed $0.5 million from Michael J. Brown in order to fund
transactions on our Czech Republic ATM network. Amounts advanced under this loan
agreement mature six months from the date an advance is made, but the amounts
were extended for a second six-month period. Amounts advanced bear interest of
10% per annum. In January 2002, we paid in full the loan principal and related
interest totaling $0.5 million.
In 2000, Michael J. Brown pledged approximately $4.0 million of marketable
securities that he owns (not including any of our common stock) in order to
obtain the release of cash collateral of $4.8 million held by a bank providing
cash to our ATM network in Hungary. We did not have to pay any consideration for
this security pledge. On March 14, 2002, we obtained a letter of credit
supported by a certificate of deposit for $5.0 million that replaced Michael J.
Brown's security pledge, as well as a related $0.8 million letter of credit and
certificate of deposit.
We leased many of our ATMs under capital lease arrangements that expire between
2002 and 2008. The leases bear interest between 8% and 12% per annum. As of June
30, 2002, we owed $11.4 million under these capital lease arrangements. We
expect that our capital requirements will continue in the future, although
strategies that promote outsourcing and redeployment of underperforming ATMs
will reduce some of these requirements. Acquisitions of related ATM businesses
and investments in new markets will require additional capital expenditures.
Fixed asset purchases for 2002 are currently estimated to be in the range of $7
to $10 million, subject to our evaluation of acceptable returns and transaction
levels of new ATM investment, particularly in the United Kingdom.
Effective July 1, 2001, we implemented our Employee Stock Purchase Plan, or
ESPP, under which employees have the opportunity to purchase common stock
through payroll deductions according to specific eligibility and participation
requirements. We completed a series of offerings of three months duration with
new offerings commencing on January 1, April 1, July 1, and October 1 of each
year. Under the plan, participating employees are granted options, which
immediately vest and are automatically exercised on the final date of the
respective offering period. The exercise price of common stock options purchased
is the lesser of 85% of the "fair market value" (as defined in the ESPP) of the
shares on the first day of each offering or the last date of each offering. The
options are funded by participating employees' payroll deductions or cash
payments. Under the provisions of the ESPP, we reserved 500,000 shares of common
stock of which we had issued 237,476 shares as of June 30, 2002. This plan
qualifies as an "employee stock purchase plan" under section 423 of the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986. During the three months ended June 30, 2002, we issued
11,022 shares at a price of $13.59 per share, resulting in proceeds to us of
$0.1 million. During the six months ended June 30, 2002, we issued 62,946 shares
at an average price of $14.30 per share, resulting in proceeds to us of $0.9
million.
In March 2002, we made matching contributions of 9,647 shares of stock in
conjunction with our 401(k) employee benefits plan for plan year 2001. Under the
terms of this plan, employer-matching contributions consist of two parts,
referred to as "basic" and "discretionary". The basic matching contribution is
equal to 50% of eligible employee elective salary deferrals between 4% and 6% of
participating employee salaries for the plan year. The discretionary matching
contribution is determined by our board of directors for a plan year and is
allocated in proportion to employee elective deferrals. As of June 30, 2002,
total employer matching contributions since inception of the plan has consisted
of 25,922 shares under the basic match and 16,275 shares under the discretionary
matching contribution.
We reduced the total book value of our long term Senior Discount Notes from
$54.5 million at June 30, 2001 to $43.3 million at June 30, 2002. We did this
through a series of debt-for-debt and debt-for-equity exchanges as more fully
described in Note 7 to our June 30, 2002 unaudited consolidated financial
statements and in Note 11 to our consolidated financial statements for the year
ended December 31, 2001. Due to market and other factors, we may not be able to
continue to successfully implement these exchanges in 2002 and beyond. We are
required to commence cash payments of interest on these notes on January 1,
2003. At current debt levels (after giving effect to the $9.0 million early
redemption payment made on July 19, 2002), we will be required to make
approximately $2.1 million in interest payments on a semi-annual basis beginning
January 1, 2003. The full principal balance of these notes will be due and
payable on July 1, 2006.
We have no significant off-balance sheet items.
Based on our current business plan and financial projections, we expect to
continue to improve operating income and generate net cash inflows from our
operating activities in 2002. In our Processing Services Segment, we anticipate
that increased transaction levels in our ATM network will result in additional
revenues without a corresponding increase in expenses. In addition, we expect to
further expand our ATM outsourcing services and offer new value-added services,
which will provide continued revenue growth without significantly increasing
direct operating expenses or capital investments. In the Software Solutions
Segment, we believe our operating costs are now more in line with anticipated
revenues. We believe that certain asset sales and cash and cash equivalents will
provide us with sufficient capital. As a result, we believe that we have
sufficient liquid resources to meet current and future cash requirements. We
will continue our policy of assessing opportunities for additional debt and
equity financing as they arise, and will pursue any
such opportunities if we think they can contribute to fulfilling our financial
and strategic business objectives, particularly if attractive acquisition
opportunities present themselves.
BALANCE SHEET ITEMS
Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents increased to $20.5 million at June 30, 2002 from $8.8
million at December 31, 2001 primarily due to the following activity:
.. Net proceeds from the sale of DASH of $6.1 million as described in Note 9 to
our unaudited consolidated financial statements
.. Net proceeds from the private placement of equity in February 2002 of $11.7
million as described in Note 11 to our unaudited consolidated financial
statements
.. Net proceeds from exercise of stock options, warrants and employee share
purchases of $3.9 million
.. Cash flow from operations of $5.1 million
.. Offset by the transfer of $5.0 million to restricted cash as described in the
restricted cash caption below
.. Offset by the cash purchase of $5.1 million of fixed assets and other
long-term assets
.. Offset by debt repayment of $5.4 million
Restricted cash
Restricted cash increased to $6.2 million at June 30, 2002 from $1.9 million at
December 31, 2001. The majority of restricted cash is held as security with
respect to cash provided by banks participating in our ATM network. The increase
is due to the pledge of cash to purchase a $5.0 million surety bond as cash
collateral for the Hungarian ATM network, to replace Michael J. Brown's $4.0
million security pledge and a related $0.8 million certificate of deposit
previously obtained for the same purpose.
Trade accounts receivable
Trade accounts receivable decreased to $7.7 million at June 30, 2002 from $8.9
million at December 31, 2001 primarily due to improved collections.
Assets from discontinued operations
Assets from discontinued operations represent the net assets for France as of
June 30, 2002 and for France and DASH as of December 31, 2001. The decrease
results from the sale of substantially all of DASH's assets from discontinued
operations as discussed in Note 9 to our unaudited consolidated financial
statements.
Property, plant and equipment
Net property, plant and equipment increased to $31.2 million at June 30, 2002
from $29.1 million at December 31, 2001. This increase results from fixed asset
purchases in excess of depreciation.
Intangible assets
Net intangible assets increased to $1.7 million at June 30, 2002 from $1.6
million at December 31, 2001. The intangible asset is principally goodwill
related to the 1999 acquisition of SBK, a German ATM company.
Other assets
Other assets increased to $4.0 million at June 30, 2002 from $3.3 million at
December 31, 2001 due to increases in investments and other long term assets of
$1.1 million partially offset by the amortization of capitalized software
development costs of $0.4 million.
Current liabilities
Current liabilities decreased to $19.5 million at June 30, 2002 from $23.6
million at December 31, 2001. This decrease results primarily from the $2.0
million repayment of the shareholder credit facility discussed in Note 6 to our
unaudited consolidated financial statements.
Liabilities from discontinued operations
Liabilities from discontinued operations represent the net liabilities for
France as of June 30, 2002 and for France and DASH as of December 31, 2001. The
decrease results from the sale of substantially all of DASH's liabilities from
discontinued operations as discussed in Note 9 to our unaudited consolidated
financial statements.
Capital leases
Total capital lease obligations including current installments decreased to
$11.4 million at June 30, 2002 from $12.0 million at December 31, 2001. This
results from the excess of lease payments over new capital lease obligations.
Notes payable
Notes payable increased to $43.3 million at June 30, 2002 from $38.1 million at
December 31, 2001. This results from the following activity:
(unaudited)
(in thousands)
Balance at December 31, 2001 $38,146
Unrealized foreign exchange loss (Euro vs. USD) 4,641
Accretion of notes payable interest 2,461
Extinguishment of debt (see note 7 to the unaudited consolidated
financial statements) (1,930)
-------
Balance at June 30, 2002 $43,318
=======
Total Stockholders' Equity/(Deficit)
Total stockholders' equity increased to $9.2 million at June 30, 2002 from a
deficit of $7.7 million at December 31, 2001. This results from the following
activity:
. $1.2 million in net losses for the six months ended June 30, 2002
. $17.7 million in proceeds from the private placement of equity, the
exercise of options and warrants, and employee stock purchases
. $0.4 million decrease in the accumulated comprehensive loss
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
For details of critical accounting policies please refer to the audited
consolidated financial statements of Euronet Worldwide, Inc. and subsidiaries
for the year ended December 31, 2001, including the notes thereto, set forth in
the Company's Form 10-K.
IMPACT OF ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS NOT YET ADOPTED
In July 2002, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS
146), "Accounting for Exit or Disposal Activities". SFAS 146 addresses
significant issues regarding the recognition, measurement and reporting of costs
that are associated with exit and disposal activities, including restructuring
activities that are currently accounted for pursuant to the guidance that the
Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) has set forth in the EITF Issue No. 94-3,
"Liability Recognition for Certain Employee Termination Benefits and Other Costs
to Exit an Activity (including Certain Costs Incurred in a Restructuring)". The
scope of SFAS 146 also includes (1) costs related to terminating a contract that
is not a capital lease and (2) termination benefits that employees who are
involuntarily terminated receive under the terms of a one-time benefit
arrangement that is not an ongoing benefit arrangement or an individual deferred
compensation contract. SFAS 146 will be effective for financial statements
issued for fiscal years beginning after December 31, 2002. The Company has not
yet determined the impact of SFAS 146 on results of operations and financial
position.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Operational Risk; Security
Our business involves the operation and maintenance of a sophisticated computer
network and telecommunications connections with banks, financial institutions
and mobile operators. This, in turn, requires the maintenance of computer
equipment and infrastructure, including telecommunications and electrical
systems, and the integration and enhancement of complex software applications.
There are certain operational risks inherent in this type of business that can
require temporary shut-down of part or all of our processing systems, including
failure of electrical supply, failure of computer hardware and software errors.
All of our ATMs other than the ones in Germany are operated through our
processing center in Budapest, so any operational problem there may have a
significant adverse impact on the operation of our network generally.
We have experienced operations and computer development staff and have created
redundancies and procedures, particularly in our Budapest processing center, to
mitigate these risks. However, they cannot be eliminated entirely. Any technical
failure that prevents operation of our systems for a significant period of time
will prevent us from processing transactions during that period of time and will
directly and adversely affect our revenues and financial results.
Our ATM network systems process electronic financial transactions using
information that is read by ATMs or point-of-sale terminals from bank debit and
credit cards, or that our customers input into our systems for mobile phone
recharge services. We capture, transmit, handle and store this sensitive bank
card information in performing services for our customers. In addition, our
software is designed to permit our customers to operate electronic financial
transaction networks similar to our network, so our software is used in handling
this type of sensitive information.
These businesses involve certain inherent security risks, in particular the risk
of electronic interception and theft of the information for use in fraudulent
card transactions. We have incorporated industry standard encryption technology
and processing methodology into our systems and software to maintain high levels
of security. Although this technology and methodology mitigates security risks,
they cannot be eliminated entirely as criminal elements apply increasingly
sophisticated technology to attempt to obtain unauthorized access to the
information handled by ATM and electronic financial transaction networks.
Any breach in our security systems could result in the perpetration of
fraudulent financial transactions for which we may be found liable. We are
insured against various risks, including theft
and negligence, but our insurance coverage is subject to deductibles, exclusions
and limitations that may leave us bearing some or all of any losses arising from
security breaches.
In addition to electronic fraud issues, theft and vandalism of ATMs presents
risks for our ATM business. We install ATMs at sites that are high flow traffic
sites and are exposed to theft and vandalism. Vandalism during the year 2001
increased in some of our markets, particularly in Hungary where a series of
incidents were attributed to an organized gang that we believe has been
apprehended. Although we are insured against these risks, deductibles,
exclusions or limitations in our insurance coverage may leave us bearing some or
all of any losses arising from theft or vandalism of ATMs. In addition, we have
experienced increases in claims under our insurance, which has increased our
insurance premiums.
Foreign Exchange Exposure
In the three months ended June 30, 2002, 64.1% of our revenues were generated in
Poland, Hungary, the United Kingdom and Germany as compared to 65.8% in the
three months ended June 30, 2001. In the six months ended June 30, 2002, 62.3%
of our revenues were generated in Poland, Hungary, the United Kingdom and
Germany as compared to 65.7% in the six months ended June 30, 2001. This
decrease is due to the overall increase in revenues for our operations,
including in these four countries. In Hungary and Poland, the majority of
revenues received are denominated in the Hungarian forint and Polish zloty,
respectively. However, the majority of our foreign currency denominated
contracts in both countries are linked to either inflation or the retail price
index. In the United Kingdom and Germany, 100% of the revenues received are
denominated in the British pound and the Euro, respectively. Although a
significant portion of our expenditures in these countries are still made in or
denominated in U.S. dollars, we are striving to achieve more of our expenses in
local currencies to match our revenues.
We estimate that a 10% depreciation in foreign exchange rates of the Euro,
Hungarian forint, Polish zloty and the British pound sterling against the U.S.
dollar, would have the combined effect of a $2.9 million decrease in the
reported net loss. This was estimated by segregating revenues and expenses by
the U.S. dollar, Hungarian forint, Polish zloty, British pounds, and Euro and
then applying a 10% currency devaluation to the non-U.S. dollar amounts. We
believe this quantitative measure has inherent limitations. It does not take
into account any governmental actions or changes in either customer purchasing
patterns or our financing or operating strategies.
As a result of continued European economic convergence, including the increased
influence of the Euro as opposed to the U.S. dollar on the Central European
currencies, we expect that the currencies of the markets where we invest will
fluctuate less against the Euro than against the dollar. Accordingly, we believe
that our Euro denominated debt provides, in the medium to long term, for a
closer matching of assets and liabilities than would dollar denominated debt.
Inflation and Functional Currencies
Generally, the countries we operate in have experienced low and stable inflation
in recent years. Therefore, the local currency in each of these markets is the
functional currency. Although Croatia has maintained relatively stable inflation
and exchange rates, the functional currency of our Croatian subsidiary is the
U.S. dollar due to the significant level of U.S. dollar denominated revenues and
expenses. Due to these factors, 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.
Interest Rate Risk
The fair market value of our long-term fixed interest rate debt is subject to
interest rate risk. Generally, the fair market value of fixed interest rate debt
will increase as interest rates fall and decrease as interest rates rise. The
estimated fair value of our notes payable at June 30, 2002 was $46.0 million
compared to a carrying value of $43.3 million. A 1% increase from prevailing
interest rates at June 30, 2002 would result in a decrease in fair value of
notes payable by approximately $1.5 million. Fair values were determined from
quoted market prices and from investment bankers considering credit ratings and
the remaining term to maturity.
First Interest Repayment
Beginning January 1, 2003, interest payments of approximately Euro 2.2 million
($2.1 million, after giving effect to the $9.0 million early redemption payment
made on July 19, 2002) will be payable semi-annually on our outstanding 12 3/8%
senior debt. Payment dates will be January 1 and July 1, with the final interest
payment due on July 1, 2006. Because the bond interest is payable in Euro,
foreign currency fluctuations between the U.S. dollar and the Euro may result in
gains or losses which, in turn, may increase or decrease the amount of U.S.
dollar equivalent interest paid. We currently anticipate making these interest
payments from earnings denominated in local currencies in our European markets.
As a result, it may not be necessary to hedge these expected cash payments in
U.S. dollars, since the source of funds used for payments would already be in
Euro or Euro-linked denominations. Throughout 2002, we will actively monitor our
potential need to hedge future bond interest payments, and if required, we will
initiate hedging strategies to minimize foreign currency losses resulting from
payments made from U.S. dollars.
