PART I
Item 1. BUSINESS
Introduction
Effective March 25, 2024, FLEETCOR Technologies, Inc. changed its corporate name to Corpay, Inc. At that time, we ceased
trading under the ticker symbol "FLT" and began trading under our new ticker symbol, "CPAY", on the New York Stock
Exchange (NYSE) and have been a member of the S&P 500 since 2018. Corpay is a global corporate payments company that
helps businesses and consumers better manage and pay their expenses. Corpay's suite of modern payment solutions help
customers better manage vehicle-related expenses (e.g., fueling, tolls, car registrations and parking), lodging expenses (e.g.,
hotel and extended stay bookings) and corporate payments (e.g., domestic and international accounts payable and point of sale
purchases). This results in our customers saving time and ultimately spending less. Since its incorporation in 2000, Corpay has
delivered payment and spend solutions with customized controls and robust capabilities that offer our customers a better way to
pay.
Businesses spend an estimated $145 trillion each year in transactions with other businesses. In many instances, businesses lack
the proper tools to monitor what is being purchased and employ manual, paper-based, disparate processes and methods to both
approve and make payments for their business-to-business purchases. This often results in wasted time and money due to
unnecessary or unauthorized spending, fraud, receipt collection, data input and consolidation errors, inaccurate reimbursement
processing, account reconciliation errors, employee misuse and more.
Digital payments are faster and more secure than paper-based methods such as checks, provide timely and detailed data that can
be utilized to effectively reduce unauthorized purchases and fraud, automate data entry and reporting and eliminate
reimbursement mistakes. Combining this payment data with analytical tools delivers powerful insights, which managers can use
to better run their businesses.
Corpay’s vision is that every payment is digital, every purchase is controlled and every related decision is informed. Our wide
range of modern, digitized solutions provide control, reporting and automation benefits superior to many of the payment
methods businesses often use such as cash, paper checks, general purpose credit cards, as well as employee payment processes.
In addition to delivering meaningful value to our customers, our solutions also share several important and attractive business
model characteristics including:
- the majority of revenue is derived primarily from business customers, which tend to have relatively predictable,
consistent volumes;
-
recurring revenue models driven by recurring volume, resulting in predictable revenue;
-
unique selling systems with common sales approaches, management and reporting;
-
specialized technology platforms and proprietary payment acceptance networks, which create competitive advantages
and barriers to entry; and
- high EBITDA margins and cash flow translation with limited infrastructure investment requirements.
We actively market and sell to current and prospective customers using a multi-channel, go-to-market strategy, which includes
comprehensive digital channels, direct sales forces and strategic partner relationships. We sell stand-alone products and services
and are currently deploying platforms where a single customer can use multiple products from one user interface. It is important
to note that we compete mostly with legacy payment companies and traditional ways of paying, such as cash and checks. We
supplement our organic growth strategy and sales efforts by pursuing attractive acquisition opportunities, which serve to
strengthen and extend our market positions and create value faster. With a long, proven operating history, Corpay facilitates
payments to or on behalf of millions of businesses around the world using multiple modalities.
Corpay has the following reportable segments: Vehicle Payments, Corporate Payments, Lodging Payments and Other. These
segments reflect how we organize and manage our global employee base, manage operating performance and execute on
strategic initiatives. Our Vehicle Payments solutions help control and monitor spending and include fuel card offerings, tolls
and other complementary products. Our Corporate Payments solutions simplify and automate vendor payments and include
accounts payable (AP) automation, virtual cards, cross-border payments and purchasing and travel and entertainment ("T&E")
card products. Our Lodging Payments solutions help businesses manage their lodging costs, while simplifying the management
of hotels and housing, both short and longer-term, while also providing traveler and end customer support.
Vehicle Payments
Our Vehicle Payments solutions are purpose-built to enable our customers to pay for vehicle related expenses. For our business
customers, we also provide greater control and visibility of spending when compared with less specialized payment methods,
such as cash or general-purpose credit cards. Our digital enabled solutions provide customers with significant control
capabilities such as, customizable user-level controls, programmable alerts and detailed transaction reporting. Furthermore, our
business customers can use the data, controls and tools to combat employee misuse and fraud, streamline expense
administration and potentially lower their operating costs, accessible through sophisticated web portals and mobile applications.
For our consumer customers, our Vehicle Payment solutions provide seamless, mobile first digital experience when paying for
certain vehicle related expenses, removing the friction associated with alternative payment methods and having to use multiple
service providers.
We utilize both proprietary and third-party payment acceptance networks to deliver our Vehicle Payments solutions. In our
proprietary networks, which tend to be geographically distinct and unique to the markets we serve, transactions are processed
on applications and operating systems owned and operated by us, and only at select participating merchants with whom we
have contracted directly for acceptance. These proprietary networks generally provide us with better economics, as we control
more of the transaction, and richer data because of how the networks and point of sale software are configured. Third-party
networks are operated by independent parties, such as MasterCard and VISA, and tend to be more broadly accepted, which is
the primary benefit compared with our proprietary networks.
Fuel – Our fuel solutions are used by customers to pay and control spending for fuel for vehicles and fleets. Our fuel solutions
are fuel type agnostic (fossil fuel, electricity, etc.). We offer fuel solutions to businesses and government entities who operate
vehicle fleets, as well as to consumers primarily in Brazil, Mexico and Europe. At the most basic level, we provide the
measurement of fuel used and facilitate the payment for that fuel to the merchant, whether that fuel be diesel, gasoline,
compressed natural gas or electricity, while also providing online control, reporting and tracking capabilities to fleet operators.
In many cases we can also deliver fuel price savings to our business customers when compared to the retail price of fuel. In the
U.K. and Europe, we also enable fleets to significantly streamline the VAT reclaim process by digitizing and itemizing fuel
receipts in a way that is compliant with tax authority requirements.
The measurement, control and payment needs of our customers operating electric vehicles (EV) are similar to those operating
traditional, internal combustion vehicles, just centered around electricity usage instead of gas or diesel usage. As we help our
customers manage through the transition to EVs, many will operate "mixed" fleets (i.e., fleets with a combination of internal
combustion vehicles a

Item 1A. RISK FACTORS
You should carefully consider the following risks applicable to us. If any of the following risks actually occur, our business,
operating results, financial condition and the trading price of our common stock could be materially adversely affected. The
risks discussed below also include forward-looking statements, and our actual results may differ substantially from those
discussed in these forward-looking statements. See “Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” in this report.
Risks related to information technology and security
We are dependent on the efficient and uninterrupted operation of interconnected computer systems, telecommunications,
data centers and call centers, including technology and network systems managed by multiple third parties, which could
result in our inability to prevent disruptions in our services.
Our ability to provide reliable service to customers, cardholders and other network participants depends upon uninterrupted
operation of our data centers and call centers as well as third-party labor and services providers. Our business involves
processing large numbers of transactions, the movement of large sums of money and the management of large amounts of data.
We rely on the ability of our employees, contractors, suppliers, systems and processes to complete these transactions in a
secure, uninterrupted and error-free manner.
Our subsidiaries operate in various countries and country specific factors, such as power availability, telecommunications
carrier redundancy, embargoes and regulation can adversely impact our information processing by, or for, our local
subsidiaries.
We engage backup facilities for each of our processing centers for key systems and data. However, there could be material
delays in fully activating backup facilities depending on the nature of the breakdown, security breach or catastrophic event
(such as fire, explosion, flood, pandemic, natural disaster, power loss, telecommunications failure or physical break-in).
Although, we have controls and documented measures to mitigate these risks, these mitigating controls might not reduce the
duration, scope or severity of an outage in time to avoid adverse effects.
We may experience software defects, system errors, computer viruses and development delays, which could damage
customer relationships, decrease our profitability and expose us to liability.
Our business depends heavily on the reliability of proprietary and third-party processing systems. A system outage could
adversely affect our business, financial condition or results of operations, including by damaging our reputation or exposing us
to third-party liability. To successfully operate our business, we must be able to protect our processing and other systems from
interruption, including from events that may be beyond our control. Events that could cause system interruptions include, but
are not limited to, fire, natural disaster, unauthorized entry, power loss, telecommunications failure, computer viruses, terrorist
acts and war. Although we have taken steps to protect against data loss and system failures, there is still risk that we may lose
critical data or experience system failures.
Our solutions are based on sophisticated software and computing systems that are constantly evolving. We often encounter
delays and cost overruns in developing changes implemented to our systems. In addition, the underlying software may contain
undetected errors, viruses or defects. Defects in our software products and errors or delays in our processing of electronic
transactions could result in additional development costs, diversion of technical and other resources from our other
development efforts, loss of credibility with current or potential customers, harm to our reputation or exposure to liability
claims. In addition, we rely on technologies supplied to us by third parties that may also contain undetected errors, viruses or
defects that could adversely affect our business, financial condition or results of operations. Although we attempt to limit our
potential liability for warranty claims through disclaimers in our software documentation and limitation of liability provisions in
our licenses and other agreements with our customers, we cannot assure that these measures will be successful in limiting our
liability.
We may not be able to adequately protect our systems or the data we collect from continually evolving cybersecurity risks or
other technological risks, which could subject us to liability and damage our reputation.
We electronically receive, process, store and transmit data and sensitive information about our customers and merchants,
including bank account information, social security numbers, expense data and credit card, debit card and checking account
numbers. We endeavor to keep this information confidential; however, our websites, networks, information systems, services
and technologies may be targeted for sabotage, disruption or misappropriation. The uninterrupted operation of our information
systems and our ability to maintain the confidentiality of the customer and consumer information that resides on our systems
are critical to the successful operation of our business. Unauthorized access to our networks and computer systems could result
in the theft or publication of confidential information or the deletion or modification of records or could otherwise cause
interruptions in our service and operations.
Other than an unauthorized access incident during the second quarter of 2018, previously disclosed in 2018, we are not aware of
any material breach of our or our associated third parties’ computer systems, although we and others in our industry are
regularly the subject of attempts by bad actors to gain unauthorized access to these computer systems and data or to obtain,
change or destroy confidential data (including personal consumer information of individuals) through a variety of means.
Because techniques used to sabotage or obtain unauthorized access to our systems and the data we collect change frequently
and may not be recognized until launched against a target, especially considering heightened threats and risks associated with
artificial intelligence, we may be unable to anticipate these techniques or to implement adequate preventative measures. An
incident may not be detected until well after it occurs and the severity and potential impact may not be fully known for a
substantial period of time after it has been discovered. Our ability to address incidents may also depend on the timing and
nature of assistance that may be provided from relevant governmental or law enforcement agencies. Threats to our systems and
our associated third parties’ systems can derive from human error, fraud or malice on the part of employees or third parties, or
may result from accidental technological failure. Computer viruses can be distributed and could infiltrate our systems or those
of our associated third parties. In addition, denial of service or other attacks could be launched against us for a variety of
purposes, including to interfere with our services or create a diversion for other malicious activities. Although we believe we
have sufficient controls in place to prevent disruption and misappropriation and to respond to such attacks, any inability to
prevent security breaches could have a negative impact on our reputation, expose us to liability, decrease market acceptance of
electronic transactions and cause our present and potential clients to choose another service provider.
In addition, the risk of cyber-attacks has increased in connection with the military and geopolitical conflicts around the world,
including between Russia and Ukraine and within the Middle East. In light of those and other geopolitical events, nation-state
actors or their supporters may launch retaliatory

Item 1B. UNRESOLVED STAFF COMMENTS
We have no unresolved written comments regarding our periodic or current reports from the staff of the SEC.
ITEM 1C**.** CYBERSECURITY
Risk Management and Strategy
We are subject to cybersecurity incidents and information theft risks in our operations, which we seek to manage through
cybersecurity and information security programs, training and insurance coverage. To strengthen our security and cybersecurity
defenses, we maintain a defensive approach to cybersecurity and information security designed to defend our systems against
misuse, intrusions and cyberattacks and to protect the data we collect. Our processes to assess, identify and manage material
risks from cybersecurity threats are strategically integrated into our overall risk management framework, as evidenced by
annual risk assessments and required trainings across business lines and applications. Our information security program
maintains procedures and controls for the systems, applications and our data and data of our third-party providers. We have an
established cybersecurity training program which is administered through online learning modules and is required for all
employees at least annually. Such trainings cover topics such as password protection, phishing, the protection of confidential
information and asset security, among others and educate employees on mechanisms in place to report cybersecurity incidents
or suspicions of cybersecurity incidents or threats. Further, we maintain a cybersecurity incident response plan, which is
managed by our Chief Information Security Officer (CISO) and is reviewed and tested annually. The incident response process
is overseen by a security operations and cybersecurity incident response team comprised of members across the organization,
including global management and IT operations and leverages an organizational-wide platform that allows us to track, manage
and resolve information security risks across the organization.
Our information security program is designed to generally align with recommended practices in security standards issued by the
International Organization for Standardization (ISO), American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA, SSAE18),
National Institute of Standards and Technology Cybersecurity Framework (NIST CSF), Payment Card Industry Data Security
Standard (PCI DSS) and other industry sources. Specifically, we strive to maintain ISO certifications (ISO 27001 Brazil and
U.K.), SOC 1 and 2 Type 2 reports and PCI DSS reports on compliance to adhere to industry standard practices.
Our newly acquired businesses operate with independent cybersecurity programs and processes, which may vary in scope and
complexity compared to our overarching cybersecurity framework, until they are fully integrated into our unified system.
As part of our overall risk mitigation strategy, we also maintain cybersecurity insurance coverage; however, such insurance may
not be sufficient in type or amount to cover us against claims related to security breaches, cyberattacks and other cybersecurity
incidents.
We have not identified any risks from cybersecurity threats, including as a result of previous cybersecurity incidents, that have
materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect our business strategy, results of our operations, or financial
condition. However, we have been the target of cyber-attacks and expect them to continue as cybersecurity threats have been
rapidly evolving in sophistication and becoming more prevalent in the industry. We cannot eliminate all risks from
cybersecurity threats or provide assurances that we have not experienced an undetected cybersecurity incident in the past or that
we will not experience such an incident in the future. For more information on the risks from cybersecurity threats and incidents
that we face, refer to Part I, “Item 1A. Risk Factors.”
Use of Third Parties
To regularly assess whether our cybersecurity strategies and processes remain appropriate to prevent, investigate and address
cybersecurity-related issues, we engage with information security and forensics firms with specialized industry knowledge. Our
collaboration with these third parties includes the administration of third-party security questionnaires, risk assessments and
testing and consultation on security enhancements to attempt to mitigate threats. We also collaborate with third parties,
regulators and law enforcement, when appropriate, to resolve security incidents and assist in efforts to prevent unauthorized
access to our processing systems.
In order to oversee and identify risks from cybersecurity threats and incidents associated our use of third-party service
providers, we maintain a risk management program designed to help protect against the misuse of information technology. In
addition to risk assessments and questionnaires obtained upon selection of a new service provider, we also perform annual
third-party risk assessments to ensure these service providers continue to meet contractual obligations for cybersecurity,
regulatory and industry requirements.
Governance
Board of Directors Oversight
The Information Technology and Security Committee (ITSC) is responsible for providing oversight and leadership for our
information technology security and cybersecurity planning processes, policies and objectives. The ITSC is composed of board
members with both industry knowledge as well as expertise in technology and security, finance and risk management. The
primary purpose of the committee is to review, assess and make recommendations regarding the long-term strategy for global
information security and the evolution of our technology in a competitive environment.
To accomplish this purpose, the information technology and security committee has four primary responsibilities:
- to understand the security controls and assessments conducted on major card platforms and concur that such controls
are comparable to industry best practices and standards as appropriate;
- to assess technology modernization plans and processing platform strategies to validate proper investment in multi-
year initiatives that maintain effective and efficient use of Company resources;
- to review progress on significant IT projects against milestones and quality indicators and evaluate actions intended to
drive quality and timeliness; and
- to evaluate the prioritization of strategies for intellectual property protection.
Management's Role
The Board and the information technology and security committee directed the formation of a cross-functional cybersecurity
council and receive regular cybersecurity reports from the Company's Chief Information Officer (CIO) and the CISO, among
others. These reports include updates on our cybersecurity strategy and execution of its processes, including updates on
procedures to prepare for, prevent, detect, respond to and recover from (as applicable) cybersecurity incidents. Such updates
also include updates on our continued compliance with regulatory requirements. Our information security and risk management
program is periodically evaluated by third-party specialists, and the results of those reviews are reported to the Board.
Our CISO, who reports directly to our CIO, has served in various roles in information technology and information security for
over 20 years, with experience in technology risk management, cybersecurity, compliance, network engineering, information
systems and business resiliency. He is a Certified Information Systems Security Professional and Certified Information Systems
Auditor.
Our CISO manages our information security and oversees our data security personnel and our incident response and business
continuity management programs to assess and manage the cybersecurity element of our risk management program, including
policies, cybersecurity training, security operations and engineering, cybersecurity threat detection and incident response. Our
CISO informs and updates the Board about any information security incidents that may pose a significant risk to us.
Item 2. PROPERTIES
Our corporate headquarters are located in Atlanta, Georgia where we lease approximately 46,500 square feet of office space. In
addition to our corporate headquarters, we have major operations located in Brentwood, Tennessee; Covington, Louisiana;
Louisville, Kentucky; Lexington, Kentucky; and Peachtree Corners, Georgia. Our largest offices internationally are located in
São Paulo, Brazil; London, United Kingdom; Prague, Czech Republic; Mexico City, Mexico and Toronto, Canada. We lease all
of the real property used in our business, except for a portion of our headquarters in Mexico City, which we own.
Item 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
In the ordinary course of business, Corpay, Inc. and its subsidiaries (the Company) is involved in various pending or threatened
legal actions, arbitration proceedings, claims, subpoenas and matters relating to compliance with laws and regulations
(collectively, "legal proceedings"). Based on our current knowledge, management presently does not believe that the liabilities
arising from these legal proceedings will have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial condition, results of
operations or cash flows. However, it is possible that the ultimate resolution of these legal proceedings could have a material
adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition for any particular period.
Derivative Lawsuits
On July 10, 2017, a shareholder derivative complaint was filed against the Company and certain of the Company’s directors
and officers in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Georgia ("Federal Derivative Action") seeking
recovery from the Company. The District Court dismissed the Federal Derivative Action on October 21, 2020, and the United
States Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit affirmed the dismissal on July 27, 2022, ending the lawsuit. A similar
derivative lawsuit that had been filed on January 9, 2019 in the Superior Court of Gwinnett County, Georgia (“State Derivative
Action”) was likewise dismissed on October 31, 2022.
On January 20, 2023, the previous State Derivative Action plaintiffs filed a new derivative lawsuit in the Superior Court of
Gwinnett County, Georgia. The new lawsuit, City of Aventura Police Officers’ Retirement Fund, derivatively on behalf of
Fleetcor Technologies, Inc. v. Ronald F. Clarke and Eric R. Dey, alleges that the defendants breached their fiduciary duties by
causing or permitting the Company to engage in unfair or deceptive marketing and billing practices, making false and
misleading public statements concerning the Company’s fee charges and financial and business prospects and making improper
sales of stock. The complaint seeks approximately $118 million in monetary damages on behalf of the Company, including
contribution by defendants as joint tortfeasors with the Company in unfair and deceptive practices and disgorgement of
incentive pay and stock compensation. On January 24, 2023, the previous Federal Derivative Action plaintiffs filed a similar
new derivative lawsuit, Jerrell Whitten, derivatively on behalf of Fleetcor Technologies, Inc. v. Ronald F. Clarke and Eric R.
Dey, against Mr. Clarke and Mr. Dey in Gwinnett County, Georgia. The defendants dispute the allegations in the derivative
complaints and intend to vigorously defend against the claims. On May 1, 2024, both pending derivative cases were transferred
to the Fulton County Metro Atlanta Business Case Division and consolidated as In re Corpay, Inc. Shareholder Derivative
Litigation, CAFN 2023CV383303 (consolidated with CAFN 2023CV381421).
On July 10, 2024, the defendants filed a motion to dismiss the consolidated lawsuit. The defendants dispute the allegations in
the consolidated derivative action and intend to vigorously defend against the claims.
FTC Matter
In October 2017, the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) issued a Notice of Civil Investigative Demand to the Company for the
production of documentation and a request for responses to written interrogatories. After discussions with the Company, the
FTC proposed in October 2019 to resolve potential claims relating to the Company’s advertising and marketing practices,
principally in its U.S. direct fuel card business within its North American Fuel Card business. The parties reached impasse
primarily related to what the Company believes are unreasonable demands for redress made by the FTC. On December 20,
2019, the FTC filed a lawsuit in the Northern District of Georgia against the Company and Ron Clarke. See FTC v. FleetCor
and Ronald F. Clarke, No. 19-cv-05727 (N.D. Ga.). The complaint alleges the Company and Ron Clarke violated the FTC Act’s
prohibitions on unfair and deceptive acts and practices. The complaint seeks among other things injunctive relief, consumer
redress and costs of suit. The Company continues to believe that the FTC’s claims are without merit and these matters are not
and will not be material to the Company’s financial performance. On April 17, 2021, the FTC filed a motion for summary
judgment. On April 22, 2021, the United States Supreme Court held unanimously in AMG Capital Management v. FTC that the
FTC does not have authority under current law to seek monetary redress by means of Section 13(b) of the FTC Act, which is
the means by which the FTC has sought such redress in this case. The Company cross-moved for summary judgment regarding
the FTC’s ability to seek monetary or injunctive relief on May 17, 2021. On August 13, 2021, the FTC filed a motion to stay or
to voluntarily dismiss without prejudice the case pending in the Northern District of Georgia in favor of a parallel
administrative action under Section 5 of the FTC Act that it filed on August 11, 2021 in the FTC’s administrative process.
Apart from the jurisdiction and statutory change, the FTC’s administrative complaint makes the same factual allegations as the
FTC’s original complaint filed in December 2019. The FTC’s administrative action was stayed pending resolution of the case in
federal court. On August 9, 2022, the District Court for the Northern District of Georgia granted the FTC's motion for summary
judgment as to liability for the Company and Ron Clarke, but granted the Company's motion for summary judgment as to the
FTC's claim for monetary relief as to both the Company and Ron Clarke.
On June 8, 2023, the Court issued an Order for Permanent Injunction and Other Relief. The Company filed its notice of appeal
to the United States Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit on August 3, 2023. On August 17, 2023, the FTC Commission
ordered that the stay of the parallel Section 5 administration action will remain in place during the pendency of the Eleventh
Circuit appeal. Oral argument in the Eleventh Circuit appeal was held on January 21, 2025. The Company has incurred and
continues to incur legal and other fees related to this FTC complaint. Any settlement of this matter, or defense against the
lawsuit, could involve costs to the Company, including legal fees, redress, penalties and remediation expenses.
Estimating an amount or range of possible losses resulting from litigation proceedings is inherently difficult and requires an
extensive degree of judgment, particularly where, as here, the matters involve indeterminate claims for monetary damages and
are in the stages of the proceedings where key factual and legal issues have not been resolved. For these reasons, the Company
is currently unable to predict the ultimate timing or outcome of, or reasonably estimate the possible losses or a range of possible
losses resulting from, the matters described above.

Item 5. MARKET FOR REGISTRANT’S COMMON EQUITY, RELATED STOCKHOLDER
MATTERS, AND ISSUER PURCHASES OF EQUITY SECURITIES
Our common stock is traded on the NYSE under the ticker CPAY. As of December 31, 2024, there were 313 holders of record
of our common stock.
DIVIDENDS AND STOCK REPURCHASES
We currently expect to retain all future earnings, if any, for use in the operation, expansion of our business and stock
repurchases. We have never declared or paid any dividends on our common stock and do not anticipate paying cash dividends
to holders of our common stock in the foreseeable future. In addition, our credit agreements restrict our ability to pay dividends.
Any determination to pay dividends in the future will be at the discretion of our board of directors and will depend upon, among
other factors, our results of operations, financial condition, capital requirements and covenants in our existing financing
arrangements and any future financing arrangements.
The Company's Board has approved a stock repurchase program (as updated from time to time, the "Program") authorizing the
Company to repurchase its common stock from time to time until February 4, 2026. On January 25, 2024, the Board authorized
an increase to the aggregate size of the Program by $1.0 billion to $8.1 billion, and on November 5, 2024, the Board authorized
an increase to the aggregate size of the Program by another $1.0 billion to $9.1 billion. Since the beginning of the Program
through December 31, 2024, 33,090,680 shares have been repurchased for an aggregate purchase price of $7.8 billion, leaving
the Company up to $1.3 billion of remaining authorization available under the Program for future repurchases in shares of its
common stock. There were 4,211,818 common shares totaling $1.3 billion in 2024; 2,597,954 common shares totaling
$0.7 billion in 2023; and 6,212,410 common shares totaling $1.4 billion in 2022 repurchased under the Program. Repurchased
shares are held as treasury stock on the Company's Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Any stock repurchases may be made at times and in such amounts as deemed appropriate. The timing and amount of stock
repurchases, if any, will depend on a variety of factors including the stock price, market conditions, corporate and regulatory
requirements, and any additional constraints related to material inside information the Company may possess. Any repurchases
have been and are expected to be funded by a combination of available cash flow from the business, working capital and debt.

Executive Overview
Effective March 25, 2024, FLEETCOR Technologies, Inc. changed its corporate name to Corpay, Inc. At that time, we ceased
trading under the ticker symbol "FLT" and began trading under our new ticker symbol, "CPAY", on the New York Stock
Exchange (NYSE). Corpay is a global corporate payments company that helps businesses and consumers better manage and
pay their expenses. Corpay's suite of modern payment solutions help customers better manage vehicle-related expenses (e.g.,
fueling, tolls, car registration and parking), lodging expenses (e.g., hotel and extended stay bookings) and corporate payments
(e.g., domestic and international accounts payable and point of sale purchases). This results in our customers saving time and
ultimately spending less. Since its incorporation in 2000, Corpay has delivered payment and spend solutions with customized
controls and robust capabilities that offer our customers a better way to pay.
Businesses spend an estimated $145 trillion each year in transactions with other businesses. In many instances, businesses lack
the proper tools to monitor what is being purchased and employ manual, paper-based, disparate processes and methods to both
approve and make payments for their business-to-business purchases. This often results in wasted time and money due to
unnecessary or unauthorized spending, fraud, receipt collection, data input and consolidation, report generation, reimbursement
processing, account reconciliations, employee disciplinary actions and more.
Corpay’s vision is that every payment is digital, every purchase is controlled and every related decision is informed. Digital
payments are faster and more secure than paper-based methods such as checks and provide timely and detailed data that can be
utilized to effectively reduce unauthorized purchases and fraud, automate data entry and reporting, and eliminate reimbursement
processes. Combining this payment data with analytical tools delivers insights, which managers can use to better run their
businesses. Our wide range of modern, digitized solutions generally provides control, reporting and automation benefits
superior to many of the payment methods businesses often use such as cash, paper checks, general purpose credit cards, as well
as employee pay and reclaim processes.
Russia Disposition
We completed the sale of our Russia business on August 15, 2023. The sale included the entirety of our operations in Russia
and resulted in a complete exit from the Russia market. We received total proceeds, net of cash disposed and net of a
$5.6 million foreign exchange loss upon conversion of the ruble-denominated proceeds to U.S. dollars, of $197.0 million,
which have been recorded within investing activities in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for the year
ended December 31, 2023. In connection with the sale, we recorded a net gain on disposal of $13.7 million during the year
ended December 31, 2023, which represents the proceeds received less the derecognition of the related net assets, the
reclassification of accumulated foreign currency translation losses, and the foreign exchange loss upon conversion of the ruble-
denominated proceeds to U.S. dollars.
Exclusive of the impact of disposition, our business in Russia accounted for approximately $62.0 million of our income before
income taxes for the year ended December 31, 2023.
Comdata Merchant Solutions Disposition
In May 2024, we signed a definitive agreement to sell the merchant solutions business, a business within the U.S. division of
our Vehicle Payments segment (the "disposal group") to a third party. The transaction was completed during December 2024.
The disposal group's assets and liabilities were recorded at their carrying value. Goodwill of approximately $58.2 million was
allocated to the carrying value of the disposal group based on a relative fair value analysis.
We received total proceeds of $185.5 million, which have been recorded within investing activities in the accompanying
Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. In connection with the sale, we recorded a net gain on disposal of $121.3 million
during the year ended December 31, 2024, which represents the proceeds received less the derecognition of the related net
assets.

Item 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Foreign currency risk
Foreign Earnings
Our international businesses expose us to foreign currency exchange rate changes that can impact translations of foreign-
denominated assets and liabilities into U.S. dollars and future earnings and cash flows from transactions denominated in
different currencies. Revenues from our international businesses were 47.7% and 45.6% of total revenues for the years ended
December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. We measure foreign currency exchange risk based on changes in foreign currency
exchange rates using a sensitivity analysis. The sensitivity analysis measures the potential change in earnings based on a
hypothetical 10% change in currency exchange rates. Such analysis indicated that a hypothetical 10% change in foreign
currency exchange rates would have increased or decreased consolidated operating income during the year ended December 31,
2024 by approximately $97.8 million had the U.S. dollar exchange rate increased or decreased relative to the currencies to
which we had exposure. Similarly, the analysis for the prior year indicated that a hypothetical 10% change in currency
exchange rates would have increased or decreased consolidated operating income for the years ended December 31, 2023 by
approximately $86.0 million had the U.S. dollar exchange rate increased or decreased relative to the currencies to which we had
exposure.
Unhedged Cross-Currency Risk
With our cross-border payment solutions, we have additional foreign exchange risk and associated foreign exchange risk
management requirements due to the nature of our cross-border payments provider business. The majority of cross-border
payments revenue is from exchanges of currency at spot rates, which enable customers to make cross-currency payments. In our
cross-border payment solutions, we also write foreign currency forward and option contracts for customers to facilitate future
payments. The duration of these derivative contracts at inception is generally less than one year. We aggregate foreign
exchange exposures arising from customer contracts, including the derivative contracts described above, and hedge (economic
hedge) the resulting net currency risks by entering into offsetting contracts with established financial institution counterparties.
Interest rate risk
We are exposed to the risk of changing interest rates on our cash investments and on the unhedged portion of our variable rate
debt. As of December 31, 2024 and 2023, we had $6.7 billion and $5.4 billion, respectively, of variable rate debt outstanding
under our Credit Agreement. See Note 11 to our Consolidated Financial Statements within this Form 10-K for further
information. We use derivative financial instruments to reduce our exposure related to changes in interest rates. As of
December 31, 2024, we had a number of receive-variable SOFR, pay-fixed interest rate swap derivative contracts with a
cumulative notional U.S. dollar value of $4.5 billion. The objective of these contracts is to reduce the variability of cash flows
in the previously unhedged interest payments associated with variable rate debt, the sole source of which is due to changes in
SOFR benchmark interest rate. While these agreements are intended to lessen the impact of rising interest rates on us, they also
expose us to the risk that the other parties to the agreements will not perform, we could incur significant costs associated with
the settlement of the agreements, the agreements will be unenforceable and the underlying transactions will fail to qualify as
highly-effective cash flow hedges under GAAP. See Note 16 to our Consolidated Financial Statements within this Form 10-K
for further information.
Based on the amounts and mix of our fixed and floating rate debt (exclusive of our Securitization Facility but inclusive of the
aforementioned interest rate swaps) at December 31, 2024 and 2023, if market interest rates had increased or decreased an
average of 100 basis points, our interest expense for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023 would have changed by
approximately $22 million and $14 million, respectively. We determined these amounts by considering the impact of the
hypothetical interest rates on our borrowing costs. These analyses do not consider the effects of changes in the level of overall
economic activity that could exist in such an environment.
Fuel price risk
A majority of our Vehicle Payments customers use our products and services in connection with the purchase of fuel.
Accordingly, our revenue is affected by fuel prices, which are subject to significant volatility. A decline in retail fuel prices
could cause a change in our revenue from several sources, including fees paid to us based on a percentage of each customer’s
total purchase. Changes in the absolute price of fuel may also impact unpaid account balances and the late fees and charges
based on these amounts. The impact of changes in fuel price is somewhat mitigated by our agreements with certain merchants,
where the price paid to the merchant is equal to the lesser of the merchant’s cost plus a markup or a percentage of the
transaction purchase price. We do not enter into any fuel price derivative instruments.
Fuel price spread risk
From our merchant and network relationships, we derive revenue from the difference between the price charged to a fleet
customer for a transaction and the price paid to the merchant or network for the same transaction. For certain of our payment
products, the price paid to a merchant or network is calculated as the merchant’s wholesale cost of fuel plus a markup. The
merchant’s wholesale cost of fuel is dependent on several factors including, among others, the factors described above affecting
fuel prices. The fuel price that we charge to our customer is dependent on several factors including, among others, the fuel price
paid to the fuel merchant, posted retail fuel prices and competitive fuel prices. We experience fuel price spread contraction
when the merchant’s wholesale cost of fuel increases at a faster rate than the fuel price we charge to our customers, or the fuel
price we charge to our customers decreases at a faster rate than the merchant’s wholesale cost of fuel. Accordingly, if fuel price
spreads contract, we may generate less revenue, which could adversely affect our operating results. The impact of volatility in
fuel spreads is somewhat mitigated by our agreements with certain merchants, where the price paid to the merchant is equal to
cost plus a markup or a percentage of the transaction purchase price.
Item 8. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY DATA
INDEX TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Stockholders and the Board of Directors of Corpay, Inc. and Subsidiaries
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Corpay, Inc. and subsidiaries (the Company) as of December 31,
2024 and 2023, the related consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, equity and cash flows for each of the three
years in the period ended December 31, 2024, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “consolidated financial
statements”). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the
Company at December 31, 2024 and 2023, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the
period ended December 31, 2024, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States)
(PCAOB), the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2024, based on criteria established in Internal
Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (2013
framework) and our report dated February 27, 2025 expressed an adverse opinion thereon.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the
Company’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required
to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and
regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the
audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error
or fraud. Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether
due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis,
evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting
principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial
statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Critical Audit Matters
The critical audit matters communicated below are matters arising from the current period audit of the financial statements that were
communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material
to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective or complex judgments. The communication of
critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the consolidated financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are
not, by communicating the critical audit matters below, providing separate opinions on the critical audit matters or on the accounts
or disclosures to which they relate.
| Valuation of goodwill | ||
| Description of the Matter | At December 31, 2024, the Company’s goodwill was $6.0 billion. As discussed in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company completes an impairment test of goodwill at the reporting unit level at least annually or more frequently if facts and circumstances indicate that goodwill might be impaired. The Company’s quantitative impairment test involves estimating the fair value of each reporting unit using a discounted cash flow analysis and to a lesser extent, market multiples for comparable companies. During the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company recognized a goodwill impairment loss of $90 million related to the Payroll Card reporting unit. Auditing the Company's estimate of fair value for the Payroll Card reporting unit was complex and subjective due to a high degree of subjectivity of certain assumptions underlying the determination of the reporting unit’s fair value using the discounted cash flow model. These assumptions included forecasts for Earnings before Interest Taxes Depreciation and Amortization (EBITDA) margin as well as the discount rate, which are affected by expectations about future market or economic conditions. |
| How We Addressed the Matter in Our Audit | To test the estimated fair value of the Payroll Card reporting unit, our audit procedures included, among others, assessing the methodologies used by the Company and testing the significant assumptions discussed above, inclusive of the underlying data used by the Company in its development of these assumptions. We involved our valuation specialists to assist us in evaluating the Company’s estimated discount rate methodology and developing an independent range of reasonable discount rates. We also compared EBITDA margin forecasts to historical results and current industry and economic trends, and we performed sensitivity analyses on the significant assumptions to evaluate the changes in the fair value of the reporting unit that would result from changes in the significant assumptions. | |
| Valuation of acquired customer relationship intangible assets | ||
| Description of the Matter | As discussed in Notes 2 and 7 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company completed the acquisitions of Paymerang and GPS Capital Markets, LLC (GPS) for total estimated purchase consideration of $179.2 million and $576.2 million, respectively. The acquisitions were accounted for as business combinations. The Company recorded intangible assets from these acquisitions, including customer and vendor relationships of $542.3 million. The Company used the excess earnings method to estimate the preliminary fair values of the customer relationships, which were ba |

DISCLOSURE
Not applicable.
ITEM 9A**. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES**
Management Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining an adequate system of internal control over financial reporting
(as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act), pursuant to Rule 13a-15(c) of the Exchange Act. Our
internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial
reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with GAAP.
A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes policies and procedures that: (i) pertain to the maintenance of
records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company, (ii)
provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in
accordance with GAAP, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with
authorizations of management and directors of the company, and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or
timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the
financial statements.
Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, we assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over
financial reporting as of December 31, 2024, using the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the
Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control—Integrated Framework (2013). A material weakness is a deficiency, or a
combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material
misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. As of
December 31, 2024, we identified the following material weakness in internal controls:
(1) A material weakness in internal control related to ineffective information technology general controls (ITGCs) in
the area of user access management over certain information technology systems used in the execution of controls that
support the Company’s financial reporting processes. Our business process application and manual controls that are
dependent on the affected ITGCs were also deemed ineffective because they could have been adversely impacted. We
believe that these control deficiencies were the result of challenges in the prior year implementation of technology
aimed to automate the user access review process. Specifically, these deficiencies pertained to the completeness and
accuracy of data used in the automated solution and in existing manual user access control processes that lacked
sufficient documentation and formality, as well as insufficient training of information technology personnel
responsible for the execution and documentation of ITGCs. The material weakness did not result in any identified
misstatements to the financial statements, and there were no changes to previously released financial results.
Based on this material weakness, the Company’s management concluded that at December 31, 2024, the Company’s internal
control over financial reporting was not effective.
The Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, Ernst & Young LLP has issued an adverse audit report on the
effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2024, which appears in Item 9A of
this Annual Report.
As a result of the identification of the material weakness, and prior to filing this Annual Report, we performed further analysis
and completed additional procedures intended to ensure our consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31,
2024 were prepared in accordance with GAAP. Based on these procedures and analysis, and notwithstanding the material
weakness in our internal control over financial reporting, our management has concluded that our consolidated financial
statements and related notes thereto included in this Annual Report have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. Our Chief
Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have certified that, based on each such officer’s knowledge, the financial
statements, as well as the other financial information included in this Annual Report, fairly present in all material respects the
financial condition, results of operations and cash flows of the Company as of, and for, the periods presented in this Annual
Report. In addition, Ernst & Young LLP has issued an unqualified opinion on our financial statements, which is included in
Item 8 of this Annual Report, and we have developed a remediation plan for the material weakness, which is described below.
In connection with management's evaluation, our management team excluded from its assessment of the effectiveness of our
internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2024, the internal controls related to three subsidiaries that we
acquired during the year ended December 31, 2024, and for which financial results are included in our consolidated financial
statements.
During 2024, the Company acquired 70% of Zapay, a Brazil-based digital consumer mobility solution for paying vehicle-
related taxes and compliance fees; Paymerang, a U.S.-based leader in accounts payables automation solutions; and GPS Capital
Markets, a U.S.-based provider of business-to-business cross-border and treasury management solutions to upper middle market
companies. Collectively, we refer to these transactions as the 2024 Acquisitions. In the evaluation of internal control over
financial reporting, management excluded the operations of acquired entities in the 2024 Acquisitions from the assessment of
internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2024. These operations were excluded in accordance with the
SEC’s general guidance because they and the related entities were acquired in purchase business combinations in 2024. These
2024 Acquisitions constituted 10.9% of total assets at December 31, 2024, and 1.5% of revenues, net for the year then ended.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements.
Projections of any evaluation of effectiveness for future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate
because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
Remediation
(1) Our management has been implementing and continues to implement measures designed to ensure that control deficiencies
contributing to the material weakness are remediated, such that these controls are designed, implemented and operating
effectively. The remediation actions include: (i) enhancing the information technology compliance oversight function; (ii)
developing a training program addressing ITGCs and policies, including educating control owners concerning the principles
and requirements of internal controls, with a focus on those related to user access over information technology systems
impacting financial reporting; (iii) developing and maintaining documentation underlying ITGCs to enhance the information
evidencing the performance of ITGCs; (iv) developing enhanced integration functionality and controls related to the ongoing
implementation of user access information technology system; (v) enhancing the information technology management review
and testing plan to monitor ITGCs with a specific focus on systems supporting our financial reporting processes; and (vi)
enhancing quarterly reporting on the remediation measures to the Audit Committee of the Board.
We believe that these actions will remediate the material weakness. The material weakness will not be considered remediated,
however, until the applicable controls operate for a sufficient period of time and our management has concluded, through
testing, that these controls are operating effectively.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Except for the remediation described above, there have been no other changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as
defined in Rules 13a-15(f) or 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) during our fourth quarter ended December 31, 2024 that have
materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

We have audited Corpay, Inc. and subsidiaries’ internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2024, based on
criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the
Treadway Commission (2013 framework) (the COSO criteria). In our opinion, because of the effect of the material weakness
described below on the achievement of the objectives of the control criteria, Corpay, Inc. and subsidiaries (the Company) has
not maintained effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2024, based on the COSO criteria.
A material weakness is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there
is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be
prevented or detected on a timely basis. The following material weakness has been identified and included in management’s
assessment.
A material weakness in internal controls related to ineffective information technology general controls (ITGCs) in the area of
user access management over certain information technology systems used in the execution of controls that support the
Company’s financial reporting processes. As a result, business process application and manual controls that are dependent on
the affected ITGCs were also deemed ineffective because they could have been adversely impacted.
As indicated in the accompanying Management Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting, management’s assessment
of and conclusion on the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting did not include the internal controls of the
Zapay, Paymerang, and GPS Capital Markets (the 2024 Acquisitions), which are included in the 2024 consolidated financial
statements of the Company and constituted 10.9% of total assets as of December 31, 2024 and 1.5% of revenues, net for the
year then ended. Our audit of internal control over financial reporting of the Company also did not include an evaluation of the
internal control over financial reporting of the 2024 Acquisitions.
We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States)
(PCAOB), the consolidated balance sheets of the Company as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, the related consolidated
statements of income, comprehensive income, equity and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December
31, 2024, and the related notes. This material weakness was considered in determining the nature, timing and extent of audit
tests applied in our audit of the 2024 consolidated financial statements, and this report does not affect our report dated February
27, 2025 which expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.
Basis for Opinion
The Company’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its
assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting included in the accompanying Management Report
on Internal Control over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s internal control
over financial reporting based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be
independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and
regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the
audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all
material respects.
Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material
weakness exists, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk and
performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a
reasonable basis for our opinion.
Definition and Limitations of Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the
reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures
that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and
dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit
preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and that receipts and
expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the
company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or
disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also,
projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate
because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
