FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of, and subject to the protection of, the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such statements can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as “believes,” “expects,” “may,” “estimates,” “will,” “should,” “plans” or “anticipates” or the negative thereof or other variations thereon or comparable terminology, or by discussions of strategy. Readers are cautioned that any such forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and may involve significant risks and uncertainties, and that actual results may vary materially from those in the forward-looking statements as a result of various factors. Among the factors that significantly impact our business and could impact our business in the future are:

our reliance on our relationship with Popular, Inc. (“Popular”) for a significant portion of our revenues pursuant to our master services agreement with them, and to grow our merchant acquiring business;
as a regulated institution, the likelihood we will be required to obtain regulatory approval before engaging in certain new activities or businesses, whether organically or by acquisition, and our potential inability to obtain such approval on a timely basis or at all, which may make transactions more expensive or impossible to complete, or make us less attractive to potential sellers;
our ability to renew our client contracts on terms favorable to us, including our contract with Popular, and any significant concessions we may have to grant to Popular with respect to pricing or other key terms in anticipation of the negotiation of the extension of the MSA, both in respect of the current term and any extension of the MSA;
our dependence on our processing systems, technology infrastructure, security systems and fraudulent payment detection systems, as well as on our personnel and certain third parties with whom we do business, and the risks to our business if our systems are hacked or otherwise compromised;
our ability to develop, install and adopt new software, technology and computing systems;
a decreased client base due to consolidations and failures in the financial services industry;
the credit risk of our merchant clients, for which we may also be liable;
the continuing market position of the ATH network;
a reduction in consumer confidence, whether as a result of a global economic downturn or otherwise, which leads to a decrease in consumer spending;
our dependence on credit card associations, including any adverse changes in credit card association or network rules or fees;
changes in the regulatory environment and changes in international, legal, tax, political, administrative or economic conditions;
the geographical concentration of our business in Puerto Rico, including our business with the government of Puerto Rico and its instrumentalities, which are facing severe political and fiscal challenges;
additional adverse changes in the general economic conditions in Puerto Rico, whether as a result of the government’s debt crisis or otherwise, including the continued migration of Puerto Ricans to the U.S. mainland, which could negatively affect our customer base, general consumer spending, our cost of operations and our ability to hire and retain qualified employees;
a protracted federal government shutdown may affect our financial performance;
operating an international business in Latin America and the Caribbean, in jurisdictions with potential political and economic instability;
our ability to execute our geographic expansion and acquisition strategies, including challenges in successfully acquiring new businesses and integrating and growing acquired businesses;
our ability to protect our intellectual property rights against infringement and to defend ourselves against claims of infringement brought by third parties;
our ability to recruit and retain the qualified personnel necessary to operate our business;
our ability to comply with U.S. federal, state, local and foreign regulatory requirements;
evolving industry standards and adverse changes in global economic, political and other conditions;
our high level of indebtedness and restrictions contained in our debt agreements, including the senior secured credit facilities, as well as debt that could be incurred in the future;
our ability to prevent a cybersecurity attack or breach in our information security;
our ability to generate sufficient cash to service our indebtedness and to generate future profits;
our ability to refinance our debt;
the possibility that we could lose our preferential tax rate in Puerto Rico;
the risk that the counterparty to our interest rate swap agreements fail to satisfy its obligations under the agreement;


Table of Contents

uncertainty of the pending debt restructuring process under Title III of the Puerto Rico Oversight, Management and Economic Stability Act (“PROMESA”), as well as actions taken by the government of Puerto Rico or by the PROMESA Board to address the fiscal crisis in Puerto Rico;
the aftermath of Hurricanes Irma and Maria and their continued impact on the economies of Puerto Rico and the Caribbean;
the possibility of future catastrophic hurricanes affecting Puerto Rico and/or the Caribbean, as well as other potential natural disasters;
uncertainty related to the effect of the discontinuation of the London Interbank Offered Rate at the end of 2021;
the nature, timing and amount of any restatement; and
the impact of a novel strain of coronavirus ("COVID-19"), and measures taken in response to the outbreak, on our revenues, net income and liquidity due to current and future disruptions in operations as well as the macroeconomic instability caused by the pandemic.

These forward-looking statements involve a number of risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those suggested by the forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements should, therefore, be considered in light of various factors, including those set forth under “Item 1A. Risk Factors,” in “Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and elsewhere in this Report. These forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of this Report, and we do not undertake any obligation to publicly release any revisions to these forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this Report or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.

Note 1 – The Company and Basis of Presentation

The Company

EVERTEC, Inc. (formerly known as Carib Latam Holdings, Inc.) and its subsidiaries (collectively the “Company,” or “EVERTEC”) is a leading full-service transaction processing business in Latin America and the Caribbean. The Company is based in Puerto Rico and provides a broad range of merchant acquiring, payment processing and business process management services. The Company provides services across 26 countries in the region. EVERTEC owns and operates the ATH network, one of the leading personal identification number ("PIN") debit networks and automated teller machine ("ATM") in the Caribbean and Latin America. In addition, EVERTEC provides a comprehensive suite of services for core bank processing and cash processing in Puerto Rico and technology outsourcing in all the regions the Company serves. EVERTEC serves a broad and diversified customer base of leading financial institutions, merchants, corporations and government agencies with solutions that are essential to their operations, enabling them to issue, process and accept transactions securely. EVERTEC's common stock is listed under the ticker symbol "EVTC" on the New York Stock Exchange.

Basis of Presentation

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of EVERTEC have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The preparation of the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

Certain information and note disclosures normally included in the financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted from these statements pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and, accordingly, these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Audited Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company for the year ended December 31, 2019, included in the Company’s 2019 Annual Report on Form 10-K. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, prepared in accordance with GAAP, contain all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation. Intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated in consolidation.

Risks and Uncertainties due to COVID-19 Pandemic

COVID-19 presents material uncertainty and risk with respect to EVERTEC’s business, results of operations and cash flows, as well as with respect to changes in laws and regulations and government and regulatory policy. COVID-19’s impact on global economies could have a material adverse effect on (among other things) the profitability, capital and liquidity of the Company, particularly if consumer spending levels are depressed for a prolonged period of time. While the rapid development and fluidity of the situation prevents management from having clear visibility into the medium and long-term impacts, management believes possible effects may include, but are not limited to, disruption to the Company’s customers and revenue, absenteeism in the Company’s workforce, unavailability of products and supplies used in operations, and a decline in the value of assets held by the Company, including, among other things, tangible and intangible long-lived assets, and increased levels in the Company's current expected credit loss reserve.

Given the uncertain and rapidly evolving situation, management has taken certain precautionary measures intended to help minimize the risk of COVID-19 to the Company, its employees, and customers, including the following:

The Company deployed its business continuity plan for the entire organization a few days before the government of Puerto Rico enacted a shelter-in-place directive on March 16, 2020. Since then, every country in which the Company operates has implemented some type of social distancing measures. Management expects that most of our employees will remain working remotely for an undetermined period, until it is deemed safe by management to return to our offices and as permitted or advised by local authorities in each country where the Company operates;
In connection with the Company's business continuity plan, the Company transitioned most of its employees to a work from home environment. For certain critical employees who are required to remain working on-site in order to, among other things, maintain network operations oversight functions, cash handling and other critical operations for our customers, we have implemented safety measures including administering daily temperature checks upon entry into the work site, providing protective gear, developing safe social distancing workspaces and increasing overall sanitation at our offices;

Table of Contents

On May 1, 2020, the Company commenced deferral of payroll taxes as permitted under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act of 2020 (the "CARES Act"); management anticipates a $2.9 million deferral of payroll taxes during the allowed time under the CARES Act. Through September 30, 2020, the Company has deferred payroll taxes amounting to $1.7 million;
Management identified additional expense reductions that are intended to be implemented as necessary; and
Management has suspended all non-essential travel for employees.

While the Company anticipates that the foregoing measures are temporary, management cannot predict their duration, and management may elect or need to take additional precautions as more information related to COVID-19 becomes available, as may be required by governmental authorities, or as we determine are in the best interests of our employees, customers and business partners. There is no certainty that such measures will be sufficient to mitigate the risks posed by the virus or will otherwise be satisfactory to government authorities. The extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic and EVERTEC’s precautionary measures in response to it, may impact the Company’s business, financial condition or results of operations will depend on the ongoing developments related to the pandemic and its direct and indirect consequences, all of which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted at this time.

Note 2 – Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued updated guidance for the measurement of credit losses on financial instruments, which replaces the incurred loss impairment model with a methodology that reflects expected credit losses and requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information to inform credit loss estimates. The main objective of this update and subsequent clarifications and corrections, including ASU 2018-19, ASU 2019-04, ASU 2019-05, and ASU 2020-03, is to provide financial statement users with more decision-useful information about the expected credit losses on financial instruments and other commitments to extend credit held by a reporting entity at each reporting date. The amendments affect the Company's trade receivables. Additional disclosures about significant estimates and credit quality are also required. The Company adopted this new guidance effective January 1, 2020, using a modified retrospective approach through a cumulative-effect adjustment to accumulated earnings, considered immaterial to the consolidated financial statements. Results for reporting periods beginning after January 1, 2020 are presented under the new guidance provided by Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 326, while prior period amounts are not adjusted and continue to be reported under legacy GAAP.

Refer to Note 3, Current Expected Credit Losses, for discussions of the implementation of ASC Topic 326 with respect to the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In August 2018, the FASB issued updated guidance for customer’s accounting for implementation, set-up and other upfront costs (collectively referred to as implementation costs) incurred in a cloud computing arrangement constituting a service contract. The amendments in this update align the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred in a hosting arrangement that is a service contract with the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred to develop or obtain internal-use software (and hosting arrangements that include an internal-use software license). The updated guidance does not impact the accounting for the service element of a hosting arrangement that is a service contract. The Company adopted this guidance prospectively effective January 1, 2020 with respect to all implementation costs incurred in a cloud computing arrangement constituting a service contract.

In November 2018, the FASB issued updated guidance to clarify the interaction between the guidance for collaborative arrangements and the updated revenue recognition guidance. The amendments in this update, among other things, provide guidance on how to assess whether certain collaborative arrangement transactions should be accounted for under ASC Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The Company adopted the amendments in this update effective January 1, 2020. All contracts after this date are being evaluated under the updated guidance.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In March 2020, the FASB issued updated guidance for ASC Topic 848, Reference Rate Reform, to provide optional expedients and exceptions for applying GAAP to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions affected by reference rate reform if certain criteria are met for a limited period of time in order to ease the potential burden in accounting for (or recognizing the effects of) reference rate reform on financial reporting. The amendments in this update are elective and apply only to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions that reference LIBOR or another reference rate expected to be discontinued because of reference rate reform. The expedients and exceptions provided by the amendments do not apply to contract

Table of Contents

modifications made and hedging relationships entered into or evaluated after December 31, 2022, except for hedging relationships existing as of December 31, 2022, that an entity has elected certain optional expedients for and that are retained through the end of the hedging relationship. The amendments to this update are effective for all entities as of March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022. The Company is currently evaluating whether to elect the adoption of this guidance with respect to the consolidated financial statements.

Accounting Pronouncements Issued Prior to 2020 and Not Yet Adopted

In December 2019, the FASB issued updated guidance for ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes, as part of its initiative to reduce complexity in accounting standards. The amendments in this update simplify the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions to the general principles set out in ASC Topic 740. The amendments also improve consistent application of and simplify GAAP for other areas of ASC Topic 740 by clarifying and amending existing guidance. The amendments to this update are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within such fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2020. Early adoption of the amendments is permitted, including adoption in any interim period for public business entities for periods for which financial statements have not yet been issued. An entity that elects to early adopt the amendments in an interim period should reflect any adjustments as of the beginning of the annual period that includes that interim period. Additionally, an entity that elects early adoption must adopt all the amendments in the same period. The Company is currently evaluating the impact, if any, of the adoption of this guidance on the consolidated financial statements.

Note 3 – Current Expected Credit Losses

Allowance for Current Expected Credit Losses

The Company has only one type of financial asset that is subject to the expected credit loss model, which is trade receivables from contracts with customers. While contract assets and net investments in leases are also subject to the impairment requirements of ASC Topic 326, no impairment losses were recognized for these financial assets as of September 30, 2020.

To measure expected credit losses, trade receivables are grouped based on shared risk characteristics (i.e., the relevant industry sector and customer's geographical location) and days past due (i.e., delinquency status), while considering the following:

Customers in the same geographical location share similar risk characteristics associated with the macroeconomic environment of their country.
The Company has two main industry sectors: private and governmental. The private pool is comprised mainly of leading financial institutions, merchants and corporations, while the governmental pool is comprised by government agencies. The governmental customers possess different risk characteristics than private customers because although all invoices are due 30 days after issuance, governmental customers usually pay within 60 to 90 days after issuance (i.e., between 30 to 60 more days than private customers). The Company provides to its customers a broad range of merchant acquiring, payment services and business process management services, which constitute mission-critical technology solutions enabling customers to issue, process and accept transactions securely.
The expected credit loss rate is likely to increase as receivables move to older aging buckets. The Company used the following aging categories to estimate the risk of delinquency status: (i) 0 days past due; (ii) 1-30 days past due; (iii) 31-60 days past due; (iv) 61-90 days past due; and (v) over 90 days past due.

The credit losses of the Company’s trade receivables have been historically low and most balances are collected within one year. Therefore, the Company determined that the expected loss rates should be calculated using the historical loss rates adjusted by macroeconomic factors. The historical rates are calculated for each of the aging categories used for pooling trade receivables. To determine the collected portion of each bucket, the collection time of each trade receivable is identified, to estimate the proportion of outstanding balances per aging bucket that ultimately will not be collected. This is used to determine the expectation of losses based on the history of uncollected trade receivables once the specific past due period is surpassed. The historical rates are adjusted to reflect current and forward-looking information on macroeconomic factors affecting the ability of customers to settle the receivables by applying a country risk premium as the forward-looking macroeconomic factor. Specific reserves are established for certain customers for which collection is doubtful.

The Company does not have a delinquency threshold for writing-off trade receivables. The Company has a formal process for the review and approval of write-offs.

Impairment losses on trade receivables are presented as net impairment losses within cost of revenue, exclusive of depreciation and amortization in the unaudited condensed consolidated statement of income and comprehensive income. Subsequent recoveries of amounts previously written-off are credited against the allowance for expected current credit losses within accounts receivable, net on the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet.

Goodwill is tested for impairment on an annual basis as of August 31, or more often if events or changes in circumstances indicate there may be impairment. The Company may test for goodwill impairment using a qualitative or a quantitative analysis. In the quantitative analysis, the Company compares the estimated fair value of the reporting units to their carrying values, including goodwill. If the fair value of the reporting unit exceeds its carrying amount, goodwill of the reporting unit is

10

not considered impaired. If the fair value does not exceed the carrying value, an impairment loss is recorded for the excess of the carrying value over the fair value, limited to the recorded balance of goodwill. No impairment losses were recognized as of September 30, 2020.

Secured Credit Facilities

On November 27, 2018, EVERTEC and EVERTEC Group, LLC ("EVERTEC Group") (collectively, “Borrower”) entered into a credit agreement providing for the secured credit facilities, consisting of a $220.0 million term loan A facility that matures on November 27, 2023 (the “2023 Term A Loan"), a $325.0 million term loan B facility that matures on November 27, 2024 (the “2024 Term B Loan”), and a $125.0 million revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Facility”) that matures on November 27, 2023, with a syndicate of lenders and Bank of America, N.A. (“Bank of America”), as administrative agent, collateral agent, swingline lender and line of credit issuer (collectively the “2018 Credit Agreement”).

The 2018 Credit Agreement requires mandatory repayment of outstanding principal balances based on a percentage of excess cash flow, provided that no such payment shall be due if the resulting amount of the excess cash flow multiplied by the applicable percentage is less than $10 million. On March 5, 2020, in connection with this mandatory repayment clause, the Company repaid $17.0 million as a result of excess cash flow calculation performed for the year ended December 31, 2019.

The unpaid principal balance at September 30, 2020 of the 2023 Term A Loan and the 2024 Term B Loan was $192.8 million and $310.3 million, respectively. The additional borrowing capacity under our Revolving Facility at September 30, 2020 was $101.7 million. The Company issues letters of credit against the Revolving Facility which reduce the additional borrowing capacity of the Revolving Facility.

Notes Payable

In December 2019, EVERTEC Group entered into two non-interest bearing financing agreements amounting to $2.4 million to purchase software and maintenance. As of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the outstanding principal balance of the notes payable was $1.5 million and $2.4 million, respectively. The current portion of these notes is included in accounts payable and the long-term portion is included in other long-term liabilities in the Company's unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet.

Interest Rate Swaps

As of September 30, 2020, the Company has an interest rate swap agreement, entered into in December 2018, which converts a portion of the interest rate payments on the Company's 2024 Term B Loan from variable to fixed:

The Company has accounted for this agreement as a cash flow hedge.

Additionally, the Company had an interest rate swap agreement that matured in April 2020, with a notional amount of $200 million and a fixed rate of 1.9225%. The Company accounted for this swap as a cash flow hedge from inception to maturity.

As of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the carrying amount of derivatives included on the Company's unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets was $27.4 million and $14.5 million, respectively. The fair value of these derivatives is estimated using Level 2 inputs in the fair value hierarchy on a recurring basis. Refer to Note 8 for disclosure of losses recorded on cash flow hedging activities.

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Company reclassified losses of $1.7 million and $3.3 million, respectively, from accumulated other comprehensive loss into interest expense. Based on current LIBOR rates, the Company expects to reclassify losses of $6.8 million from accumulated other comprehensive loss into interest expense over the next 12 months.

The cash flow hedge is considered highly effective.

Note 7 – Financial Instruments and Fair Value Measurements

The fair values of the term loans at September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 were obtained using prices provided by third party service providers. Their pricing is based on various inputs such as market quotes, recent trading activity in a non-active market or imputed prices. These inputs are considered Level 3 inputs under the fair value hierarchy. Future estimates of fair value may be negatively impacted by market reactions to COVID-19. Also, the pricing may include the use of an algorithm that could take into account movements in the general high yield market, among other variants.

Note 9 – Share-based Compensation

Long-term Incentive Plan ("LTIP")

During the three months ended March 31, 2018, 2019 and 2020, the Compensation Committee of the Company's Board of Directors ("Board") approved grants of restricted stock units (“RSUs”) to executives and certain employees pursuant to the 2018 LTIP, 2019 LTIP and 2020 LTIP, respectively, all under the terms of the Company's 2013 Equity Incentive Plan. Under the LTIPs, the Company granted restricted stock units to eligible participants as time-based awards and/or performance-based awards.

The vesting of the RSUs is dependent upon service, market, and/or performance conditions as defined in the grants. Employees that received time-based awards with service conditions are entitled to receive a specific number of shares of the Company’s common stock on the vesting date if the employee is providing services to the Company on the vesting date. Time-based awards vest over a period of three years in substantially equal installments commencing on the grant date and ending on February 28 of each year for the 2018 LTIP, February 22 of each year for the 2019 LTIP, and February 27 of each year for the 2020 LTIP.

For the performance-based awards under the 2018 LTIP, 2019 LTIP, and 2020 LTIP, the Compensation Committee established adjusted earnings before income taxes, depreciation and amortization ("Adjusted EBITDA") as the primary performance measure while maintaining focus on total shareholder return through the use of a market-based total shareholder return ("TSR") performance modifier. The TSR modifier adjusts the shares earned based on the core Adjusted EBITDA performance upwards or downwards (+/- 25%) based on the Company’s relative TSR at the end of the three-year performance period as compared to

13

Table of Contents

the companies in the Russell 2000 Index. The Adjusted EBITDA performance measure will be calculated for the one-year period commencing on January 1 of the year of the grant and ending on December 31 of the same year, relative to the goals set by the Compensation Committee for this same period. The shares earned will be subject to an additional two-year service vesting period.

Performance and market-based awards vest at the end of the performance period that commenced on February 28, 2018 for the 2018 LTIP, February 22, 2019 for the 2019 LTIP, and February 27, 2020 for the 2020 LTIP. The periods end on February 28, 2021 for the 2018 LTIP, February 22, 2022 for the 2019 LTIP and February 27, 2023 for the 2020 LTIP. Unless otherwise specified in the award agreement, or in an employment agreement, awards are forfeited if the employee voluntarily ceases to be employed by the Company prior to vesting.

The following table summarizes nonvested restricted shares and RSUs activity for the nine months ended September 30, 2020:

Taxes payable to foreign countries by EVERTEC’s subsidiaries will be paid by such subsidiary and the corresponding liability and expense will be presented in EVERTEC’s consolidated financial statements.

As of September 30, 2020, the Company has $74.2 million of unremitted earnings from foreign subsidiaries. The Company has not recognized a deferred tax liability on undistributed earnings for the Company’s foreign subsidiaries because these earnings are intended to be indefinitely reinvested.

As of September 30, 2020, the gross deferred tax asset amounted to $17.3 million and the gross deferred tax liability amounted to $16.2 million, compared to $12.8 million and $15.0 million, respectively, as of December 31, 2019.

Income tax expense differs from the amount computed by applying the Puerto Rico statutory income tax rate to the income before income taxes as a result of the following:

Note 13 – Commitments and Contingencies

EVERTEC is a defendant in a number of legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business. Based on the opinion of legal counsel and other factors, management believes that the final disposition of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on the business, results of operations, financial condition, or cash flows of the Company. The Company has identified certain claims as a result of which a loss may be incurred, but in the aggregate the loss would be insignificant. For other claims regarding proceedings that are in an initial phase, the Company is unable to estimate the range of possible loss, if any, but at this time believes that any loss related to such claims will not be material.

For details of the Company's commitments, refer to Note 22, Commitments and Contingencies included in the Financial Statements of the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.

Note 15 – Segment Information

The Company operates in four business segments: Payment Services - Puerto Rico & Caribbean, Payment Services - Latin America (collectively "Payment Services segments"), Merchant Acquiring, and Business Solutions.

The Payment Services - Puerto Rico & Caribbean segment revenues are comprised of revenues related to providing access to the ATH debit network and other card networks to financial institutions, including related services such as authorization, processing, management and recording of ATM and point of sale ("POS") transactions, and ATM management and monitoring. The segment revenues also include revenues from card processing services (such as credit and debit card processing, authorization and settlement and fraud monitoring and control to debit or credit issuers), payment processing services (such as payment and billing products for merchants, businesses and financial institutions) and EBT (which principally consist of services to the government of Puerto Rico for the delivery of benefits to participants). For ATH debit network and processing services, revenues are primarily driven by the number of transactions processed. Revenues are derived primarily from network fees, transaction switching and processing fees, and the leasing of POS devices. For card issuer processing, revenues are primarily dependent upon the number of cardholder accounts on file, transactions and authorizations processed, the number of cards embossed and other processing services. For EBT services, revenues are primarily derived from the number of beneficiaries on file.

The Payment Services - Latin America segment revenues consist of revenues related to providing access to the ATH network of ATMs and other card networks to financial institutions, including related services such as authorization, processing, management and recording of ATM and POS transactions, and ATM management and monitoring. The segment revenues also include revenues from card processing services (such as credit and debit card processing, authorization and settlement and fraud monitoring and control to debit or credit issuers), payment processing services (such as payment and billing products for merchants, businesses and financial institutions), as well as licensed software solutions for risk and fraud management and card payment processing. For network and processing services, revenues are primarily driven by the number of transactions processed. Revenues are derived primarily from network fees, transaction switching and processing fees, and the leasing of POS devices. For card issuer processing, revenues are primarily dependent upon the number of cardholder accounts on file, transactions and authorizations processed, the number of cards embossed, and other processing services.

The Merchant Acquiring segment consists of revenues from services that allow merchants to accept electronic methods of payment. In the Merchant Acquiring segment, revenues include a discount fee and membership fees charged to merchants, debit network fees and rental fees from POS devices and other equipment, net of credit card interchange and assessment fees charged by credit cards associations (such as VISA or MasterCard) or payment networks. The discount fee is generally a percentage of the transaction value. EVERTEC also charges merchants for other services that are unrelated to the number of transactions or the transaction value.

The Business Solutions segment consists of revenues from a full suite of business process management solutions in various product areas such as core bank processing, network hosting and management, IT professional services, business process outsourcing, item processing, cash processing, and fulfillment. Core bank processing and network services revenues are derived in part from a recurrent fixed fee and from fees based on the number of accounts on file (i.e. savings or checking accounts, loans, etc.) or computer resources utilized. Revenues from other processing services within the Business Solutions segment are generally volume-based and depend on factors such as the number of accounts processed. In addition, EVERTEC is a reseller of hardware and software products and these resale transactions are generally non-recurring.

In addition to the four operating segments described above, management identified certain functional cost areas that operate independently and do not constitute businesses in themselves. These areas could neither be concluded as operating segments nor could they be combined with any other operating segments. Therefore, these areas are aggregated and presented within the “Corporate and Other” category in the financial statements alongside the operating segments. The Corporate and Other category consists of corporate overhead expenses, intersegment eliminations, certain leveraged activities and other non-operating and miscellaneous expenses that are not included in the operating segments. The overhead and leveraged costs relate to activities such as:

marketing,
corporate finance and accounting,
human resources,
legal,
risk management functions,
internal audit,
corporate debt related costs,
non-operating depreciation and amortization expenses generated as a result of merger and acquisition activity,
intersegment revenues and expenses, and
other non-recurring fees and expenses that are not considered when management evaluates financial performance at a segment level

The Chief Operating Decision Maker ("CODM") reviews the operating segments separate financial information to assess performance and to allocate resources. Management evaluates the operating results of each of its operating segments based upon revenues and Adjusted EBITDA. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as EBITDA further adjusted to exclude unusual items and other adjustments. Adjusted EBITDA, as it relates to operating segments, is presented in conformity with ASC Topic 280, Segment Reporting, given that it is reported to the CODM for purposes of allocating resources. Segment asset disclosure is not used by the CODM as a measure of segment performance since the segment evaluation is driven by revenues and Adjusted EBITDA. As such, segment assets are not disclosed in the notes to the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

The following tables set forth information about the Company’s operations by its four business segments for the periods indicated:

Executive Summary

EVERTEC is a leading full-service transaction processing business in Puerto Rico, the Caribbean and Latin America, providing a broad range of merchant acquiring, payment services and business process management services. According to the September 2019 Nilson Report, we are one of the largest merchant acquirers in Latin America based on total number of transactions and we believe we are the largest merchant acquirer in the Caribbean and Central America. We serve 26 countries in the region out of 11 offices, including our headquarters in Puerto Rico. We manage a system of electronic payment networks that process more than two billion transactions annually, and offer a comprehensive suite of services for core bank processing and cash processing in Puerto Rico and technology outsourcing in all the regions we serve. In addition, we own and operate the ATH network, one of the leading personal identification number ("PIN") debit networks in Latin America. We serve a diversified customer base of leading financial institutions, merchants, corporations and government agencies with “mission-critical” technology solutions that enable them to issue, process and accept transactions securely. We believe our business is well-positioned to continue to expand across the fast-growing Latin American region.

We are differentiated, in part, by our diversified business model, which enables us to provide our varied customer base with a broad range of transaction-processing services from a single source across numerous channels and geographic markets. We believe this capability provides several competitive advantages that will enable us to continue to penetrate our existing customer base with complementary new services, win new customers, develop new sales channels and enter new markets. We believe these competitive advantages include:
 
Our ability to provide competitive products;
Our ability to provide in one package a range of services that traditionally had to be sourced from different vendors;
Our ability to serve customers with disparate operations across several geographies with technology solutions that enable them to manage their business as one enterprise; and
Our ability to capture and analyze data across the transaction processing value chain and use that data to provide value-added services that are differentiated from those offered by pure-play vendors that serve only one portion of the transaction processing value chain (such as only merchant acquiring or payment services).

Our broad suite of services spans the entire transaction processing value chain and includes a range of front-end customer-facing solutions such as the electronic capture and authorization of transactions at the point-of-sale, as well as back-end support services such as the clearing and settlement of transactions and account reconciliation for card issuers. These include: (i) merchant acquiring services, which enable point of sales (“POS”) and e-commerce merchants to accept and process electronic

methods of payment such as debit, credit, prepaid and electronic benefit transfer (“EBT”) cards; (ii) payment processing services, which enable financial institutions and other issuers to manage, support and facilitate the processing of credit, debit, prepaid, automated teller machines (“ATM”) and EBT card programs; and (iii) business process management solutions, which provide “mission-critical” technology solutions such as core bank processing, as well as IT outsourcing and cash management services to financial institutions, corporations and governments. We provide these services through scalable, end-to-end technology platforms that we manage and operate in-house and that generate significant operating efficiencies that enable us to maximize profitability.

We sell and distribute our services primarily through a proprietary direct sales force with established customer relationships. We continue to pursue joint ventures and merchant acquiring alliances. We benefit from an attractive business model, the hallmarks of which are recurring revenue, scalability, significant operating margins and moderate capital expenditure requirements. Our revenue is predominantly recurring in nature because of the mission-critical and embedded nature of the services we provide. In addition, we generally negotiate multi-year contracts with our customers. We believe our business model should enable us to continue to grow our business organically in the primary markets we serve without significant incremental capital expenditures.

Corporate Background

EVERTEC, Inc. ("EVERTEC", formerly known as Carib Latam Holdings, Inc.) is a Puerto Rico corporation organized in April 2012. Our main operating subsidiary, EVERTEC Group, LLC (formerly known as EVERTEC, LLC and EVERTEC, Inc., hereinafter “EVERTEC Group”), was organized in Puerto Rico in 1988. EVERTEC Group was formerly a wholly-owned subsidiary of Popular. On September 30, 2010, pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger (as amended, the “Merger Agreement”), AP Carib Holdings, Ltd. (“Apollo”), an affiliate of Apollo Global Management LLC, acquired a 51% indirect ownership interest in EVERTEC Group as part of a merger (the “Merger”) and EVERTEC Group became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Holdings.

On April 17, 2012, EVERTEC Group was converted from a Puerto Rico corporation to a Puerto Rico limited liability company (the “Conversion”) for the purpose of improving its consolidated tax efficiency by taking advantage of changes to the Puerto Rico Internal Revenue Code, as amended (the “PR Code”), that permit limited liability companies to be treated as partnerships that are pass-through entities for Puerto Rico tax purposes. Concurrent with the Conversion, Holdings, which is our direct subsidiary, was also converted from a Puerto Rico corporation to a Puerto Rico limited liability company. Prior to these conversions, EVERTEC, Inc. was formed in order to act as the new parent company of Holdings and its subsidiaries, including EVERTEC Group. The transactions described above in this paragraph are collectively referred to as the “Reorganization”.

Separation from and Key Relationship with Popular

Prior to the Merger on September 30, 2010, EVERTEC Group was 100% owned by Popular, the largest financial institution in the Caribbean, and operated substantially as an independent entity within Popular. After the consummation of the Merger, Popular retained an indirect ownership interest in EVERTEC Group and is our largest customer. In connection with, and upon consummation of the Merger, EVERTEC Group entered into a 15-year Master Services Agreement (the “MSA”), and several related agreements with Popular. Under the terms of the MSA, Popular agreed to continue to use EVERTEC services on an ongoing and exclusive basis, for the duration of the agreement, on commercial terms consistent with those of our historical relationship. The anticipated negotiation of the MSA extension may result in Popular obtaining significant concessions from us with respect to pricing and other key terms, both in respect of the current term and any extension of the MSA, particularly as we approach 2025. Additionally, Popular granted us a right of first refusal on the development of certain new financial technology products and services for the duration of the MSA.

Factors and Trends Affecting the Results of Our Operations

The ongoing migration from cash and paper methods of payment to electronic payments continues to benefit the transaction-processing industry globally. We believe that the penetration of electronic payments in the markets in which we operate is significantly lower relative to the U.S. market, and that this ongoing shift will continue to generate substantial growth opportunities for our business. For example, currently the adoption of banking products, including electronic payments, in the Latin American and Caribbean regions is lower relative to the mature U.S. and European markets. We believe that the unbanked and underbanked population in our markets will continue to shrink, and therefore drive incremental penetration and growth of electronic payments in Puerto Rico and other Latin American regions. We also benefit from the trend of financial institutions and government agencies outsourcing technology systems and processes. Many medium- and small-size institutions in the Latin American markets in which we operate have outdated computer systems and updating these IT legacy systems is financially and logistically challenging, which presents a business opportunity for us.

Finally, our financial condition and results of operations are, in part, dependent on the economic and general conditions of the geographies in which we operate.

On June 30, 2016, the U.S. President signed into law PROMESA. PROMESA establishes a fiscal oversight and the Oversight Board comprised of seven voting members appointed by the President. The Oversight Board has broad budgetary and financial powers over Puerto Rico’s budget, laws, financial plans and regulations, including the power to approve restructuring agreements with creditors, file petitions for restructuring and reform the electronic system for the tax collection. The Oversight Board will have ultimate authority in preparing the government of Puerto Rico’s budget and any issuance of future debt by the government and its instrumentalities. In addition, PROMESA imposes an automatic stay on all litigation against Puerto Rico and its instrumentalities, as well as any other judicial or administrative actions or proceedings to enforce or collect claims against the government of Puerto Rico. On May 1, 2017, the automatic stay expired. Promptly after the expiration of the stay, creditors of the government of Puerto Rico filed various lawsuits involving defaults on more than $70 billion of bonds issued by Puerto Rico, having failed to reach a negotiated settlement on such defaults with the government of Puerto Rico during the period of the automatic stay. On May 3, 2017, the Oversight Board filed a voluntary petition of relief on behalf of the Commonwealth pursuant to Title III of PROMESA for the restructuring of the Commonwealth’s debt. Subsequently, the Oversight Board filed voluntary petitions of relief pursuant to Title III of PROMESA on behalf certain public corporations and instrumentalities. Title III is an in-court debt restructuring proceeding similar to protections afforded debtors under Chapter 11 of the United States Code (the “Bankruptcy Code”); the Bankruptcy Code is not available to the Commonwealth or its instrumentalities.

As the solution to the government of Puerto Rico’s debt crisis remains unclear, we continue to carefully monitor our receivables with the government as well as monitor general economic trends to understand the impact the crisis has on the economy of Puerto Rico and our card payment volumes. To date our receivables with the government of Puerto Rico and overall payment transaction volumes have not been significantly affected by the debt crisis, however we remain cautious.

With respect to the macroeconomic trends described above, management currently estimates that we will continue to experience a revenue attrition in Latin America of approximately $3 million to $4 million for previously disclosed migrations anticipated in 2020. The clients' decisions, which were made prior to 2015, for these anticipated migrations were driven by a variety of historical factors, the most important of which was customer service experience. Management believes that these customer decisions are unlikely to change; however, timing is subject to change based on customers’ conversion schedules.

Impact of COVID-19 Pandemic

COVID-19 presents material uncertainty and risk with respect to EVERTEC’s business, results of operations and cash flows, as well as with respect to changes in laws and regulations and government and regulatory policy. As the spread of the pandemic persists, entities are experiencing conditions often associated with a general economic downturn. The outbreak has disrupted global financial markets and negatively affected supply and demand across a broad range of industries. COVID-19’s impact on global economies could have a material adverse effect on (among other things) the profitability, capital and liquidity of the Company, particularly if consumer spending levels are depressed for a prolonged period of time. While the rapid development and fluidity of the situation prevents management from having clear visibility into the medium and long-term impact, management believes possible effects may include, but are not limited to, disruption to the Company’s customers and revenue, absenteeism in the Company’s workforce, unavailability of products and supplies used in operations, a decline in the value of assets held by the Company, including, among other things, tangible and intangible long-lived assets, and increased levels in the Company's current expected credit loss reserve.

Given the uncertain and rapidly evolving situation, management has taken certain precautionary measures intended to help minimize the risk of COVID-19 to the Company, its employees, and customers, including the following:

The Company deployed its business continuity plan for the entire organization a few days before the government of Puerto Rico enacted a shelter-in-place directive on March 16, 2020. Since then, every country in which the Company operates has implemented some type of social distancing measures. Management expects that most of our employees will remain working remotely for an undetermined period, until it is deemed safe by management to return to our offices and as permitted or advised by local authorities in each country where the Company operates;
In connection with the Company's business continuity plan, the Company transitioned most of its employees to a work from home environment. For certain critical employees who are required to remain working on-site in order to, among other things, maintain network operations oversight functions, cash handling and other critical operations for our customers, we have implemented safety measures including administering daily temperature checks upon entry

Table of Contents

into the work site, providing protective gear, developing safe social distancing workspaces and increasing overall sanitation at our offices;
On May 1, 2020, the Company commenced deferral of payroll taxes as permitted under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act of 2020 (the "CARES Act"); management anticipates a $2.9 million deferral of payroll taxes during the allowed time under the CARES Act. Through September 30, 2020, the Company has deferred payroll taxes amounting to $1.7 million;
Management identified additional expense reductions that are intended to be implemented as necessary; and
Management has suspended all non-essential travel for employees.

Consumer preference for digital payment solutions during the pandemic has continued to grow and the Company has benefited from an increase in transaction volumes for these types of payment solutions as a result. Similarly, there has been an acceleration of contactless and card not present transactions, which has required an evolution of our traditional ATM cards that require PIN entry. The Company continues to focus on new innovative solutions, such as contactless payment solutions and our gateway product in Latin America to further accelerate the consumer preference for digital solutions.

While the Company anticipates that the foregoing measures are temporary, management cannot predict their duration, and management may elect or need to take additional precautions as more information related to COVID-19 becomes available, as may be required by governmental authorities, or as we determine are in the best interests of our employees, customers and business partners. There is no certainty that such measures will be sufficient to mitigate the risks posed by the virus or will otherwise be satisfactory to government authorities. The extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic and EVERTEC’s precautionary measures in response to it, may impact the Company’s business, financial condition or results of operations will depend on the ongoing developments related to the pandemic and its direct and indirect consequences, all of which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted at this time.

Revenues

Total revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 increased by $16.2 million or 4% to $376.4 million when compared to the same period in the prior year. Revenue during the nine months ended September 30, 2020 was favorably impacted by higher sales volume and higher spreads in our merchant acquiring business, higher ATH Movil and ATH Movil Business transactions coupled with the impact of revenue recognized in connection with services to the Puerto Rico Department of Education mentioned above. These increases were partially offset by the prior year impact of revenue from a one-time project amounting to $2.7 million and revenue from hardware sales and the completion of several projects of approximately $4.5 million.

Cost of Revenues

Cost of revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 amounted to $168.9 million, an increase of $14.4 million or 9% when compared to the same period in the prior year.

The effective tax rate for the period was 17.7%, compared with 11.3% in the 2019 period. The increase in the effective tax rate primarily reflects the impact from discrete tax items of approximately $3.0 million, as well as, the impact of COVID-19 on the mix of business and other taxable items in foreign jurisdictions.

Segment Results of Operations

The Company operates in four business segments: Payment Services - Puerto Rico & Caribbean, Payment Services - Latin America (collectively "Payment Services segments"), Merchant Acquiring, and Business Solutions.

The Payment Services - Puerto Rico & Caribbean segment revenues are comprised of revenues related to providing access to the ATH debit network and other card networks to financial institutions, including related services such as authorization, processing, management and recording of ATM and point of sale ("POS") transactions, and ATM management and monitoring. The segment revenues also include revenues from card processing services (such as credit and debit card processing, authorization and settlement and fraud monitoring and control to debit or credit issuers), payment processing services (such as payment and billing products for merchants, businesses and financial institutions) and EBT (which principally consist of services to the government of Puerto Rico for the delivery of benefits to participants). For ATH debit network and processing services, revenues are primarily driven by the number of transactions processed. Revenues are derived primarily from network fees, transaction switching and processing fees, and the leasing of POS devices. For card issuer processing, revenues are primarily dependent upon the number of cardholder accounts on file, transactions and authorizations processed, the number of cards embossed and other processing services. For EBT services, revenues are primarily derived from the number of beneficiaries on file.

The Payment Services - Latin America segment revenues consist of revenues related to providing access to the ATH network of ATMs and other card networks to financial institutions, including related services such as authorization, processing, management and recording of ATM and POS transactions, and ATM management and monitoring. The segment revenues also include revenues from card processing services (such as credit and debit card processing, authorization and settlement and fraud monitoring and control to debit or credit issuers), payment processing services (such as payment and billing products for merchants, businesses and financial institutions), as well as licensed software solutions for risk and fraud management and card payment processing. For network and processing services, revenues are primarily driven by the number of transactions processed. Revenues are derived primarily from network fees, transaction switching and processing fees, and the leasing of POS devices. For card issuer processing, revenues are primarily dependent upon the number of cardholder accounts on file, transactions and authorizations processed, the number of cards embossed, and other processing services.

The Merchant Acquiring segment consists of revenues from services that allow merchants to accept electronic methods of payment. In the Merchant Acquiring segment, revenues include a discount fee and membership fees charged to merchants, debit network fees and rental fees from POS devices and other equipment, net of credit card interchange and assessment fees charged by credit cards associations (such as VISA or MasterCard) or payment networks. The discount fee is generally a percentage of the transaction value. EVERTEC also charges merchants for other services that are unrelated to the number of transactions or the transaction value.

The Business Solutions segment consists of revenues from a full suite of business process management solutions in various product areas such as core bank processing, network hosting and management, IT professional services, business process outsourcing, item processing, cash processing, and fulfillment. Core bank processing and network services revenues are derived in part from a recurrent fixed fee and from fees based on the number of accounts on file (i.e. savings or checking accounts, loans, etc.) or computer resources utilized. Revenues from other processing services within the Business Solutions segment are

29

Table of Contents

generally volume-based and depend on factors such as the number of accounts processed. In addition, EVERTEC is a reseller of hardware and software products and these resale transactions are generally non-recurring.

In addition to the four operating segments described above, management identified certain functional cost areas that operate independently and do not constitute businesses in themselves. These areas could neither be concluded as operating segments nor could they be combined with any other operating segments. Therefore, these areas are aggregated and presented within the “Corporate and Other” category in the financial statements alongside the operating segments. The Corporate and Other category consists of corporate overhead expenses, intersegment eliminations, certain leveraged activities and other non-operating and miscellaneous expenses that are not included in the operating segments. The overhead and leveraged costs relate to activities such as:

marketing,
corporate finance and accounting,
human resources,
legal,
risk management functions,
internal audit,
corporate debt related costs,
non-operating depreciation and amortization expenses generated as a result of merger and acquisition activity,
intersegment revenues and expenses, and
other non-recurring fees and expenses that are not considered when management evaluates financial performance at a segment level

The Chief Operating Decision Maker ("CODM") reviews the operating segments separate financial information to assess performance and to allocate resources. Management evaluates the operating results of each of its operating segments based upon revenues and Adjusted EBITDA. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as EBITDA further adjusted to exclude unusual items and other adjustments. Adjusted EBITDA, as it relates to operating segments, is presented in conformity with ASC Topic 280, Segment Reporting, given that it is reported to the CODM for purposes of allocating resources. Segment asset disclosure is not used by the CODM as a measure of segment performance since the segment evaluation is driven by revenues and adjusted EBITDA. As such, segment assets are not disclosed in the notes to the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

The following tables set forth information about the Company’s operations by its four business segments for the periods indicated below.

Payment Services - Puerto Rico & Caribbean segment revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2020 increased by $2.9 million to $33.3 million when compared to the same period in the prior year. The increase in revenues was primarily driven by an incremental $2.3 million in revenue recognized from ATH Movil and ATH Movil Business and new services, partially offset by a decrease in POS and ATM transaction volumes, due to a higher average ticket and a shift in consumer behavior towards digital payment platforms. Adjusted EBITDA remained relatively flat at $18.5 million primarily due to higher operating expenses driven by higher equipment expenses coupled with higher costs of sales that almost entirely offset the increase in revenues.

Adjusted EBITDA increased $2.0 million when compared to the same period in the prior year primarily due to the remeasurement of assets and liabilities denominated in US dollars.

Business Solutions segment revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2020 increased $10.1 million to $63.0 million as a result of revenue recognized in connection with services to the Puerto Rico Department of Education amounting to $4.4 million coupled with an increase in services for Popular and increased network revenues, partially offset by a decrease in IT Consulting revenue as the prior year included revenue for a completed project. Adjusted EBITDA increased $7.9 million to $33.0 million as a result of the increase in revenue, partially offset by an increase in equipment expenses and maintenance costs coupled with increased costs of sales directly related to network revenues.

Payment Services - Puerto Rico & Caribbean segment revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 decreased by $2.3 million to $90.6 million when compared to the 2019 period. The decrease in revenues was driven by the absence of the revenue from a one-time project in the prior year of $2.7 million and a decline in transaction volumes due to the impact of COVID-19, partially offset by incremental revenue recognized from ATH Movil and ATH Movil Business and new services. Adjusted EBITDA decreased by $12.1 million to $47.8 million primarily due to lower revenue, higher operating expenses related to post-implementation costs from an electronic benefits project, and higher costs of sales directly related to new services.

Adjusted EBITDA increased $0.2 million when compared to the same period in the prior year, primarily due to the increase in revenues.

Business Solutions segment revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 increased $15.0 million to $174.5 million. Revenue growth in the segment was driven by revenue recognized for the Puerto Rico Department of Education as discussed above, coupled with increased services to Popular and an increase in network services revenue, partially offset by $2.5 million in revenue for completed projects and hardware sales recognized in the prior year that did not recur. Adjusted EBITDA increased $12.1 million to $84.5 million compared to the same period in the prior year as a result of higher revenues, partially offset by higher equipment expenses and increased costs of sales related to the increase in network services.


Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our principal source of liquidity is cash generated from operations, and our primary liquidity requirements are the funding of working capital needs, capital expenditures, and acquisitions. We also have a $125.0 million Revolving Facility, of which $101.7 million was available for borrowing as of September 30, 2020. The Company issues letters of credit against our Revolving Facility which reduce our availability of funds to be drawn.

As of September 30, 2020, we had cash and cash equivalents of $144.1 million, of which $67.6 million resides in our subsidiaries located outside of Puerto Rico for purposes of (i) funding the respective subsidiary’s current business operations and (ii) funding potential future investment outside of Puerto Rico. We intend to indefinitely reinvest these funds outside of Puerto Rico, and based on our liquidity forecast, we will not need to repatriate this cash to fund the Puerto Rico operations or to meet debt-service obligations. However, if in the future we determine that we no longer need to maintain cash balances within our foreign subsidiaries, we may elect to distribute such cash to the Company in Puerto Rico. Distributions from the foreign subsidiaries to Puerto Rico may be subject to tax withholding and other tax consequences. Additionally, our credit agreement imposes certain restrictions on the distribution of dividends from subsidiaries.

Our primary use of cash is for operating expenses, working capital requirements, capital expenditures, dividend payments, share repurchases, debt service, acquisitions and other transactions as opportunities present themselves.

Based on our current level of operations, we believe our cash flows from operations and the available secured Revolving Facility will be adequate to meet our liquidity needs for the next twelve months. However, our ability to fund future operating expenses, dividend payments, capital expenditures, mergers and acquisitions, and our ability to make scheduled payments of interest, to pay principal on or refinance our indebtedness and to satisfy any other of our present or future debt obligations will depend on our future operating performance, which may be affected by general economic, financial and other factors beyond our control.

Net cash provided by operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 was $121.2 million compared to $136.2 million for the same period in the prior year. The $15.0 million decrease in cash provided by operating activities is primarily driven by a decrease in collections from customers coupled with lower net income.

Net cash used in investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 was $36.9 million compared to $49.9 million for the same period in the prior year. The $12.9 million decrease is attributable to lower capital expenditures as the prior year included significant hardware purchases as the Company refreshed key infrastructure.

Net cash used in financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 was $50.8 million compared to $57.1 million for the same period in the prior year. The $6.3 million decrease was mainly attributed to a $21.1 million decrease in cash used to repurchase common stock and $2.8 million decrease in withholding taxes paid on share-based compensation. These decreases were partially offset by a $17.0 million increase in repayments of long-term debt.

Capital Resources

Our principal capital expenditures are for hardware and computer software (purchased and internally developed) and additions to property and equipment. We invested approximately $36.9 million and $50.0 million, respectively, during the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019. Generally, we fund capital expenditures with cash flow generated from operations and, if necessary, borrowings under our Revolving Facility.

Dividend Payments

On February 20, 2020, April 21, 2020 and July 24, 2020, the Company's Board declared quarterly cash dividends of $0.05 per share of common stock, which were paid on April 3, 2020, June 5, 2020 and September 4, 2020, respectively, to stockholders of record as of the close of business on March 4, 2020, May 4, 2020 and August 3, 2020, respectively.

On October 20, 2020, our Board declared a regular quarterly cash dividend of $0.05 per share on the Company’s outstanding shares of common stock. The dividend will be paid on December 4, 2020 to stockholders of record as of the close of business on November 2, 2020. The Board anticipates declaring this dividend in future quarters on a regular basis; however future declarations of dividends are subject to the Board’s approval and may be adjusted as business needs or market conditions change.

Financial Obligations

Secured Credit Facilities

On November 27, 2018, EVERTEC and EVERTEC Group (“Borrower”) entered into a credit agreement providing for the secured credit facilities, consisting of a $220.0 million term loan A facility that matures on November 27, 2023 (the “2023 Term A Loan”), a $325.0 million term loan B facility that matures on November 27, 2024 (the “2024 Term B Loan”), and a $125.0 million revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Facility”) that matures on November 27, 2023, with a syndicate of lenders and Bank of America, N.A. (“Bank of America”), as administrative agent, collateral agent, swingline lender and line of credit issuer (collectively the “2018 Credit Agreement”).

The 2018 Credit Agreement require mandatory repayment of outstanding principal balances based on a percentage of excess cash flows provided that no such payment shall be due if the resulting amount of the excess cash flows multiplied by the applicable percentage is less than $10 million. On March 5, 2020, the Company repaid $17.0 million as a result of excess cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2019.

The unpaid principal balance at September 30, 2020 of the 2023 Term A Loan and the 2024 Term B Loan was $192.8 million and $310.3 million, respectively. The additional borrowing capacity under our Revolving Facility at September 30, 2020 was $101.7 million. The Company issues letters of credit against the Revolving Facility which reduce the additional borrowing capacity of the Revolving Facility.

Notes Payable

In December 2019, EVERTEC Group entered into two non-interest bearing financing agreements amounting to $2.4 million to purchase software and maintenance. As of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the outstanding principal balance of the notes payable was $1.5 million and $2.4 million, respectively. The current portion of these notes is included in accounts payable and the long-term portion is included in other long-term liabilities in the Company's unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet.

Interest Rate Swaps

As of September 30, 2020, the Company has an interest rate swap agreement, entered into in December 2018, which converts a portion of the interest rate payments on the Company's 2024 Term B Loan from variable to fixed:

Table of Contents

Additionally, the Company had an interest rate swap agreement that matured in April 2020, with a notional amount of $200 million and a fixed rate of 1.9225%. The Company accounted for this swap as a cash flow hedge from inception to maturity.

As of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the carrying amount of derivatives included on the Company's unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets was $27.4 million and $14.5 million, respectively. The fair value of these derivatives is estimated using Level 2 inputs in the fair value hierarchy on a recurring basis. Refer to Note 8 for disclosure of losses recorded on cash flow hedging activities.

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Company reclassified losses of $1.7 million and $3.3 million, respectively, from accumulated other comprehensive loss into interest expense. Based on current LIBOR rates, the Company expects to reclassify losses of $6.8 million from accumulated other comprehensive loss into interest expense over the next 12 months.

The cash flow hedge is considered highly effective.

Covenant Compliance

As of September 30, 2020, our secured leverage ratio was 1.93 to 1.00, as determined in accordance with the 2018 Credit Agreement. As of the date of filing of this Form 10-Q, no event has occurred that constitutes an Event of Default or Default under our 2018 Credit Agreement.

Net Income Reconciliation to EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Earnings per common share (Non-GAAP Measures)

We define “EBITDA” as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization. We define “Adjusted EBITDA” as EBITDA further adjusted to exclude unusual items and other adjustments described below. Adjusted EBITDA by segment is reported to the chief operating decision maker for purposes of making decisions about allocating resources to the segments and assessing their performance. For this reason, Adjusted EBITDA, as it relates to our segments, is presented in conformity with ASC Topic 280, Segment Reporting, and is excluded from the definition of non-GAAP financial measures under the Securities and Exchange Commission's Regulation G and Item 10(e) of Regulation S-K. We define “Adjusted Net Income” as net income adjusted to exclude unusual items and other adjustments described below. We define “Adjusted Earnings per common share” as Adjusted Net Income divided by diluted shares outstanding.

We present EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA because we consider them important supplemental measures of our performance and believe they are frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of ourselves and other companies in our industry. In addition, our presentation of Adjusted EBITDA is substantially consistent with the equivalent measurements that are contained in the senior secured credit facilities in testing EVERTEC Group’s compliance with covenants therein such as the secured leverage ratio. We use Adjusted Net Income to measure our overall profitability because we believe better reflects our comparable operating performance by excluding the impact of the non-cash amortization and depreciation that was created as a result of the Merger. In addition, in evaluating EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Earnings per common share, you should be aware that in the future we may incur expenses such as those excluded in calculating them. Further, our presentation of these measures should not be construed as an inference that our future operating results will not be affected by unusual or nonrecurring items.

Some of the limitations of EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted earnings per common share are as follows:

they do not reflect cash outlays for capital expenditures or future contractual commitments;
they do not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, working capital;
although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized will often have to be replaced in the future, and EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect cash requirements for such replacements;
in the case of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, they do not reflect interest expense, or the cash requirements necessary to service interest, or principal payments, on indebtedness;
in the case of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, they do not reflect income tax expense or the cash necessary to pay income taxes; and
other companies, including other companies in our industry, may not use EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income, and Adjusted Earnings per common share or may calculate EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net

35

Table of Contents

Income and Adjusted Earnings per common share differently than as presented in this Report, limiting their usefulness as a comparative measure.

EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Earnings per common share are not measurements of liquidity or financial performance under GAAP. You should not consider EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Earnings per common share as alternatives to cash flows from operating activities or any other performance measures determined in accordance with GAAP, as an indicator of cash flows, as a measure of liquidity or as an alternative to operating or net income determined in accordance with GAAP.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

Table of Contents


In the ordinary course of business, the Company may enter into commercial commitments. With the exception of the letters of credit issued against the Revolving Facility which reduce the additional borrowing capacity of the Revolving Facility, as of September 30, 2020, the Company did not have any off-balance sheet items.

Seasonality

Our payment businesses generally experience moderate increased activity during the traditional holiday shopping periods and around other nationally recognized holidays, which follow consumer spending patterns.


37

Table of Contents

Effect of Inflation

While inflationary increases in certain input costs, such as occupancy, labor and benefits, and general administrative costs, have an impact on our operating results, inflation has had minimal net effect on our operating results during the last three years as overall inflation has been offset by increased selling process and cost reduction actions. We cannot assure you, however, that we will not be affected by general inflation in the future.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

We are exposed to market risks arising from our normal business activities. These market risks principally involve the possibility of changes in interest rates that will adversely affect the value of our financial assets and liabilities or future cash flows and earnings. Market risk is the potential loss arising from adverse changes in market rates and prices.

Interest Rate Risks

We issued floating-rate debt which is subject to fluctuations in interest rates. Our secured credit facilities accrue interest at variable rates and only the 2024 Term B Loan is subject to a floor or a minimum rate. A 100 basis point increase in interest rates over our floor(s) on our debt balances outstanding as of September 30, 2020, under the secured credit facilities, would increase our annual interest expense by approximately $3.0 million. The impact on future interest expense as a result of future changes in interest rates will depend largely on the gross amount of our borrowings at that time.

In December 2015 and December 2018, we entered into interest rate swap agreements which convert a portion of our outstanding variable rate debt to fixed. The interest rate swap entered into in December 2015 matured in April 2020.

The interest rate swap exposes us to credit risk in the event that the counterparty to the swap agreement does not or cannot meet its obligations. The notional amount is used to measure interest to be paid or received and does not represent the amount of exposure to credit loss. The loss would be limited to the amount that would have been received, if any, over the remaining life of the swap. The counterparty to the swap is a major US based financial institution and we expect the counterparty to be able to perform its obligations under the swap. We use derivative financial instruments for hedging purposes only and not for trading or speculative purposes

See Note 6 of the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information related to the senior secured credit facilities.

Foreign Exchange Risk

We conduct business in certain countries in Latin America. Some of this business is conducted in the countries’ local currencies. The resulting foreign currency translation adjustments, from operations for which the functional currency is other than the U.S. dollar, are reported in accumulated other comprehensive loss in the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. As of September 30, 2020, the Company had $27.4 million in an unfavorable foreign currency translation adjustment as part of accumulated other comprehensive loss compared with an unfavorable foreign currency translation adjustment of $16.9 million at December 31, 2019. Unfavorable foreign currency translation adjustments at September 30, 2020 were impacted by the atypical volatility of foreign currencies brought on by the unstable macroeconomic conditions resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The Company, under the direction of the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, has established disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Based upon their evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that as of September 30, 2020, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There have not been any changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rule 13a -15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2020 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. As a

result of COVID-19, the majority of our global workforce shifted to a primarily work from home environment beginning in March 2020. This change to remote working was rapid and included both our employees in Puerto Rico as well as our workforce across all regions in which we operate. While pre-existing controls were not specifically designed to operate in our current work from home operating environment, the Company has not identified any material changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as a result from this new way of work. The Company is continually monitoring and assessing the COVID-19 situation to determine any potential impacts on the design and operating effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings

We are defendants in various lawsuits or arbitration proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business. Management believes, based on the opinion of legal counsel and other factors, that the aggregated liabilities, if any, arising from such actions will not have a material adverse effect on the financial condition, results of operations and the cash flows of the Company.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

We previously disclosed risk factors under "Item 1A. Risk Factors" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019. In addition to those risk factors and the other information included elsewhere in this report, investors should carefully consider the risk factors discussed in "Item 1A. Risk Factors" in our Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended June 30, 2020.

The risks described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 and in our Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended June 30, 2020, are not the only risks facing us. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition or results of operations.
