Nayax Reports Second Quarter 2024 Financial Results


Total revenue of $78.1 million, up 39% year-over-year;
Improved profitability with gross margins of 44.3%; return to operating profit with adjusted EBITDA of $8.1 million (1);
Reiterates full year 2024 guidance: revenue between $325-335 million and adjusted EBITDA between $30-35 million (2)

HERZLIYA, Israel, Aug. 07, 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 second quarter, ended June 30, 2024.

"I am very pleased with our second quarter results, showing another quarter of excellent execution with strong demand for our products across all segments of the market. Our second quarter results demonstrate strong top-line growth and margin expansion that we expect to continue to build on throughout the year. Our commitment towards profitable growth has yielded outstanding results, marking significant improvement in our operating profit and adjusted EBITDA. We are especially pleased with the growth in recurring revenue, improvements in gross margins and adjusted EBITDA. Our recent acquisitions in Q2 of VMtecnologia and Roseman are accretive acquisitions that will support our expanded global footprint and pipeline.

Growing synergies from all parts of our business, combined with an ongoing focus on improving margins, will continue to drive our strong growth in revenue and profitability for the foreseeable future," commented Yair Nechmad, Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board.

Sagit Manor, Chief Financial Officer added, “Nayax reported a solid set of quarterly financial results. We continue to grow at a fast pace, and in line with our strategy, reaching a record revenue of $78.1 million. We presented a solid increase in the number of managed and connected devices. Especially noteworthy is the strong improvement in our hardware gross margins, which were 29% compared to 19% in the second quarter of last year. We have strategically placed increased focus on leasing and rental over device sales, which will ultimately lead to a higher margin profile for our business in the mid and long term, per our guidance. Adjusted EBITDA in the quarter improved to $8.1 million and we returned to an operating profit. Looking ahead, we expect to continue our strong and profitable growth and we reiterate our full-year 2024 guidance on both top and bottom line.”

  1. Adjusted EBITDA is a non-IFRS financial measure. Please refer to the tables at the end of this news release for a reconciliation of adjusted EBITDA to the most directly comparable IFRS measure.
  2. 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).

Second Quarter 2024 Financial Highlights

(All comparisons are relative to the second quarter and three-month period ended June 30, 2023, unless otherwise stated)

Payment processing fees32.022.045%
Total recurring revenue (*)53.436.347%
POS devices revenue (**)24.719.924%

(*) Recurring revenue comprised of SaaS revenue and payment processing fees.
(**) POS devices revenue includes revenues that are derived from the sale of our hardware products.
(***) Q2 2024 includes revenues from recent acquisition of VMtechnologia and Roseman consolidated for the first time.

  • Revenue of $78.1 million up 39%.
  • Recurring revenue from SaaS and processing fees comprised 68% of total revenue and grew 47%.
  • Hardware revenues increased by 24% with strong demand for products across all market segments.
  • Gross margin improved strongly to 44.3% from 37.1%. This was primarily due to significantly improved hardware margins rising to 29% from 19%, as a result of various steps taken to increase efficiencies within Nayax’s business and supply chain in recent quarters.
  • Nayax reported a return to operating profit of $0.9 million, compared to an operating loss of $3.7 million.
  • Finance expenses, net, were negatively impacted by $1 million, a complete write off, due to a change in the fair value of our minority investment in Nilus, treated as a financial asset, measured at fair value through profit or loss.
  • Net loss for the period was reduced to $3.0 million or ($0.083) per share, compared to a net loss of $4.0 million, or ($0.120) per share.
  • Adjusted EBITDA for the period was $8.1 million, an improvement of $6.8 million, compared to an adjusted EBITDA of $1.3 million.
  • Revenue and adjusted EBITDA were negatively impacted by an approximate $1 million in purchase accounting adjustment, due to a fair-value adjustment to deferred revenue, related to the Retail Pro acquisition completed in Q4 2023.
  • Strong cash flow from operating activities of $9.2 million.
  • As of June 30, 2024, the Company had $86 million in cash and cash equivalents and short-term deposits. This cash position reflects the gross cash consideration of $18.7 million for the two recent acquisitions of VMtechnologia (“VM Tech”) and Roseman.
  • As of June 30, 2024, short-term and long-term debt balances stood at $54 million.

Second Quarter 2024 Operational Metric Highlights

Key Performance IndicatorsQ2 2024Q2 2023Growth (%)
Total transaction value ($m)1,18688534%
Number of processed transactions (millions)58344631%
Take rate % (payments) (*)2.70%2.49%8%
Managed and Connected devices (millions) (**)1,18682444%

(*) Payment service providers typically take a percentage of every transaction in exchange for facilitating the movement of funds from the buyer to the seller. Take rate % (payments) is calculated by dividing the total dollar transaction value by the Company’s processing revenue in the same quarter.
(**) Number of Managed and connected devices includes 22,000 generated by VM Tech and 130,000 generated by Retail Pro as of the acquisition date.

  • Total transaction value grew 34% to approximately $1.2 billion. 
  • Number of processed transactions increased 31% to 583 million.
  • Growth in the customer base continued at a healthy pace, adding 9,000 new customers in the quarter including 6,000 from organic growth, bringing the total customer base to over 85,000, an increase of 52% year-over-year.
  • The dollar-based net retention rate remained high at 130%, reflecting strong customer satisfaction, while the customer churn rate remained low at 2.8%.
  • Driven by robust customer demand, Nayax added 78,000 managed and connected devices in the quarter, including 22,000 new devices from the recent acquisition of VMtechnologia.
  • This brought the total number of managed and connected devices to 1,186,000 representing an increase of 44% year-over-year.

Recent Business Highlights

  • Nayax launched Nayax EV CloudPay, a cloud-based payments solution to help facilitate payments at electric vehicle (EV) charging stations. Many drivers currently pay for their EV charges by downloading multiple mobile apps. Since the kiosk is cloud-based, a single kiosk can facilitate the payments for multiple chargers, enabling a seamless experience for charging station operators and customers.
  • Nayax’ VPOS Touch card reader won the Best Payment System award from The Vendies, an annual UK-based vending industry award. Nayax’s VPOS Touch helps operators stay on top of their business via telemetry technology that communicates with a vending management system and app. The Nayax VPOS Touch won the same award for Best Payment System in 2021 and won the Payment System of the Year award from The Vendies in 2016, 2017, and 2018.
  • Nayax successfully closed the acquisition of VMtecnologia, a leading financial technology provider for the automated self-service industry in Brazil. This acquisition provides Nayax with a strong entry point into Latin America and into Brazil in particular and expands Nayax’s total addressable markets.
  • Nayax successfully closed the acquisition of Roseman Engineering, a Tel-Aviv based fuel and electric vehicle (EV) management software solution provider that allows managers of gas stations to track fuel station income, reduce expenses, and increase operational efficiencies. This acquisition complements Nayax’s existing offerings utilized by EV charging station operators worldwide.

Financial Outlook

For the full year 2024, management reiterates full year revenue, adjusted EBITDA and cash flow guidance, while increasing guidance on hardware gross margins.

Full year 2024 revenue expectations continue to be in the range of $325 million to $335 million, on a constant currency basis, representing year-over-year growth of at least 38%.

Nayax management increases its guidance on hardware gross margins and now expects it to be in the range of 27% to 29%, an increase from the former range of 25% to 27%. The increase was due to various improvements implemented in recent quarters including taking advantage of economies of scale, enhanced pricing strategies and continued cost optimization initiatives as well as a positive impact from the recent acquisitions.

We expect a slight increase in operating expenses due to the addition of the recent acquisitions.

Adjusted EBITDA for 2024 is expected to be in the range of $30 million to $35 million, as Nayax continues to scale its business and benefit from its high operating leverage.

Management expects that for the full year 2024, free cash flow, defined as operating cash flow minus capital expenditure, will be positive in aggregate.

On a long-term basis, management targets an approximate 35% annual growth on revenue, driven by a combination of organic growth and strategic M&A. The target model for adjusted EBITDA margin is 30%, and for gross margin is 50%.

It is noted that the financial outlook provided by Nayax constitutes forward-looking information within the meaning of applicable securities laws and is based on a number of assumptions and subject to a number of risks and is current as of today. Unless required by law, Nayax has no obligation to update its guidance. Please see the cautionary note regarding Forward-looking Statements below.

Forward-Looking Statements

This press release contains statements that constitute forward-looking statements. Many of the forward-looking statements contained in this press release can be identified by the use of forward-looking words such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “could,” “expect,” “should,” “plan,” “intend,” “estimate” and “potential,” among others. Forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements regarding our intent, belief or current expectations. Forward-looking statements are based on our management’s beliefs and assumptions and on information currently available to our management. Such statements are subject to risks and uncertainties, and actual results may differ materially from those expressed or implied in the forward-looking statements due to of various factors, including, but not limited to: our expectations regarding general market conditions, including as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic and other global economic trends; changes in consumer tastes and preferences; fluctuations in inflation, interest rate and exchange rates in the global economic environment; the availability of qualified personnel and the ability to retain such personnel; changes in commodity costs, labor, distribution and other operating costs; our ability to implement our growth strategy; changes in government regulation and tax matters; other factors that may affect our financial condition, liquidity and results of operations; general economic, political, demographic and business conditions in Israel, including the ongoing war in Israel that began on October 7, 2023 and global perspectives regarding that conflict; the success of operating initiatives, including advertising and promotional efforts and new product and concept development by us and our competitors; and other risk factors discussed under “Risk Factors” in our annual report on Form 20-F filed with the SEC on February 28, 2024 (our "Annual Report"). The preceding list is not intended to be an exhaustive list of all of our forward-looking statements. The forward-looking statements are based on our beliefs, assumptions and expectations of future performance, taking into account the information currently available to us. These statements are only estimates based upon our current expectations and projections about future events. There are important factors that could cause our actual results, levels of activity, performance or achievements to differ materially from the results, levels of activity, performance or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. In particular, you should consider the risks provided under “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report. You should not rely upon forward-looking statements as predictions of future events. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee that future results, levels of activity, performance and events and circumstances reflected in the forward-looking statements will be achieved or will occur. Each forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date of the particular statement. Except as required by law, we undertake no obligation to update publicly any forward-looking statements for any reason, to conform these statements to actual results or to changes in our expectations.

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, of which unavailable information could have a significant impact on the Company’s IFRS financial results.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1 - GENERAL

a. Nayax Ltd. (hereafter – the “Company”) was incorporated in January 2005. The Company provides processing and software as a service (SaaS) business operations solutions and services via a global platform. The Company is marketing its POS devices and SaaS solutions it developed in more than 60 countries worldwide through subsidiaries (the Company and the subsidiaries, hereafter – the “Group”) and through local distributors.

The Company is a public entity and its shares are being traded on the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange (TASE) since May 2021 and on the Nasdaq Global Select Market (Nasdaq) since September 2022 under the symbol NYAX. As of that date, the Company is dual listed on the Nasdaq and the TASE.

  1. "Swords of Iron" - War against terror organization Hamas - On October 7, 2023, Hamas terrorists infiltrated Israel’s southern border from the Gaza Strip and conducted a series of attacks on civilian and military targets. Following the attack, Israel’s government declared war against Hamas. Other terrorist organizations such as the Hezbollah in Lebanon on Israel's northern border have launched rocket attacks on Israel in support of Hamas. The military campaign against Hamas and other terrorist organizations is ongoing and could escalate in the future into a larger regional conflict. There is no certainty as to the duration, severity, results or implications of the war on the State of Israel generally or on the Company. While many of Israeli civilians were drafted to reserve duty, the company's headquarter activity located in Israel remained unharmed. The company has not experienced any material impact on its revenues, mainly due the fact that most of the company's revenues are generated overseas. As of the date of these financial statements, the end of the war is unknown
     
  2. On March 12, 2024, the Company successfully concluded an offering of 2,600,000 ordinary shares. The net proceeds from this sale amounted to approximately $62.7 million, after accounting for the underwriting discount, professional fees and other offering expenses.

IFRS 18 will apply retrospectively. Comparative periods in both interim and annual financial statements will need to be restated.

The Company is currently assessing the new requirements of IFRS 18.

b. Acquisition of VMtecnologia LTDA. (continue)

The excess of the purchase consideration over the fair value of the net identifiable assets has been recorded as Goodwill. Goodwill represents the expected synergies and intangible assets that do not qualify for separate recognition.

The following is information about revenues and losses of the Group under the assumption that VM transaction was completed on January 1, 2024: (1) The Group’s revenues for the reported period ended June 30, 2024, would have been $145,457 thousand, compared to $142,049 thousand as reported, and; (2) The Group's losses for reported period ended June 30, 2024, would have been $ 7,078 thousand compared to $ 7,969 thousand as reported.

The additional revenue included in the consolidated income statement since the acquisition date resulting from consolidating VM's results was $ 1,947 thousand during the reported period. Additionally, the consolidation of VM resulted in a decrease by $ 319 thousand in the loss for the reported period ended June 30, 2024.

The accounting for the business combination is incomplete at the reporting date. The provisional amounts recognized for the acquired identifiable assets and liabilities are based on the information available at the date of the issuance of these condensed financial statements. The company is still in the process of finalizing the fair value assessments of these items. In accordance with IFRS 3R, the measurement period is up to one year from the acquisition date, during which adjustments may be made to the provisional amounts as new information is obtained about facts and circumstances that existed as of the acquisition date.

c. On Track Innovation Ltd. – Israel Competition Authority

As previously disclosed, the Israeli Competition Authority (the “ICA”) has requested from the Company documents and information related mainly to its acquisition of On Track Innovation Ltd. The Company has provided the requested information and commenced discussions with the ICA. While we cannot predict the outcome, it is likely that if our discussions with the ICA are unsuccessful, we expect the ICA would seek to take enforcement actions against the Company, which could include imposing a fine on the Company, the amount of which could be material. The dialog with the ICA continues and it is difficult to assess when or how this process will conclude, or what results it may have to the Company.

d. Long Term Loan - Retail Pro International LLC acquisition

During 2023, the Company funded an acquisition of Retail Pro International LLC by the cash portion of the consideration payable at the closing, with a short-term credit facility that the Company received (see note 26 in the annual financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023). On February 25, 2024, the Company received from the same lender an approval for a long-term loan through bank financing that was used to repay the short-term credit facility. The long-term loan was fully executed and bears a SOFR based variable interest rates. Under the credit facility above of the financing agreement, the Company is required to meet certain financial covenants.

As of the date of these condensed financial statements, the Company met all the covenants set by the lenders.
