Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements

March 31, 2025

1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

Throughout this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the terms "our," "we," "us," and the "Company" refers to Corpay, Inc. and its subsidiaries. The Company prepared the accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, certain information and note disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to those rules and regulations, although we believe that the disclosures made are adequate to make the information not misleading. In our opinion, the unaudited interim consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments considered necessary for fair presentation. These adjustments consist of normal recurring accruals and estimates that impact the carrying value of assets and liabilities. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024. Except as disclosed in these accompanying notes, there have been no material changes to the information disclosed in the Notes contained within our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.

Use of estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. Future events and their effects cannot be predicted with certainty; accordingly, accounting estimates require the exercise of judgment. These financial statements were prepared using information reasonably available to us as of March 31, 2025 and through the date of this Quarterly Report. The accounting estimates used in the preparation of the Company’s interim consolidated financial statements may change as new events occur, as more experience is acquired, as additional information is obtained and as the Company’s operating environment changes. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

Foreign Currency Translation

Assets and liabilities of foreign subsidiaries as well as intra-entity balances denominated in foreign currency and designated for long-term investment are translated into U.S. dollars at the rates of exchange in effect at period-end. The related translation adjustments are recorded to accumulated other comprehensive loss. Income and expenses are translated at the average monthly rates of exchange in effect during the year. Gains and losses from foreign currency transactions of these subsidiaries are included in net income. The Company recognized foreign exchange losses, which are recorded within Other expense, net in the Unaudited Consolidated Statements of Income, for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024 as follows (in millions):

Three Months Ended March 31,

The Company recorded foreign currency losses and gains on long-term intra-entity transactions included as a component of foreign currency translation (gains) losses, net of tax, in the Unaudited Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024 as follows (in millions):

Financial Instruments - Credit Losses

The Company accounts for financial assets' expected credit losses in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 326, "Financial Instruments - Credit Losses". The Company’s financial assets subject to credit losses are primarily trade receivables. The Company utilizes a combination of aging and loss-rate methods to develop an estimate of current expected credit losses, depending on the nature and risk profile of the underlying asset pool, based on product, size of customer and historical losses. Expected credit losses are estimated based upon an assessment of risk characteristics, historical payment experience and the age of outstanding receivables, adjusted for forward-looking economic conditions. The allowances for remaining financial assets measured at amortized cost basis are evaluated based on underlying financial condition, credit history and current and forward-looking economic conditions. The estimation process for expected credit losses includes consideration of qualitative and quantitative risk factors associated with the age of asset balances, expected timing of payment, contract terms and conditions, changes in specific customer risk profiles or mix of customers, geographic risk, economic trends and relevant environmental factors. The Company's provision for credit losses is recorded within processing expenses in the Unaudited Consolidated Statements of Income.

Revenue

Our revenue is generally reported net of the cost for underlying products and services purchased through our payment solutions. In this report, we refer to this net revenue as "revenue". Revenues from contracts with customers, within the scope of ASC 606, "Revenue Recognition", represent approximately 86% of total consolidated revenues, net, for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024. In its cross-border payments business, the Company enters into foreign currency forwards, option derivative contracts and swaps for its customers to facilitate future payments in foreign currencies. These contracts are accounted for in accordance with ASC 815, "Derivatives and Hedging" and represent approximately 7% of total consolidated revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024. Additionally, the Company accounts for revenue from late fees and finance charges, in jurisdictions where permitted under local regulations, primarily in the U.S., Canada and Brazil, in accordance with ASC 310, "Receivables". Such fees are recognized net of a provision for estimated uncollectible amounts, at the time the fees and finance charges are assessed and services are provided and represent approximately 4% of total consolidated revenues, net for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024. The Company's remaining revenue represents float revenue earned on invested customer funds in jurisdictions where permitted. Such revenue represented approximately 3% of consolidated revenues, net for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024.

Disaggregation of Revenues

Revenues, net by segment for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024 was as follows (in millions, except percentages):

Contract Liabilities

Deferred revenue contract liabilities for customers subject to ASC 606 were $36.7 million and $39.0 million as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. We expect to recognize approximately $27.9 million of these amounts in revenues within 12 months and the remaining $8.8 million over the next five years as of March 31, 2025. Revenue recognized in the three months ended March 31, 2025 that was included in the deferred revenue contract liability as of December 31, 2024 was approximately $14.6 million.

Spot Trade Offsetting

The Company uses spot trades to facilitate cross-currency corporate payments. The Company applies offsetting to spot trade assets and liabilities associated with contracts that include master netting agreements with the same counterparty, as a right of setoff exists, which the Company believes to be enforceable. As such, the Company has netted spot trade liabilities against spot trade receivables at the counterparty level. The Company recognizes all spot trade assets, net in accounts receivable and all spot trade liabilities, net in accounts payable, each net at the counterparty level, in its Consolidated Balance Sheets at their fair value. The following table presents the Company’s spot trade assets and liabilities at their fair value at March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024 (in millions):

Reclassifications

During the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company adopted ASU 2023-07, "Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures." Segment disclosures for the prior year period herein have been modified to conform with the new ASU disclosure requirements.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

Income Taxes

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-09, "Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures" ("ASU 2023-09"). The amendments require disclosure of specific categories in the rate reconciliation and provide additional information for reconciling items that meet a quantitative threshold and further disaggregation of income taxes paid for individually significant jurisdictions. The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. ASU 2023-09 should be applied on a prospective basis, but retrospective application is permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact that this guidance will have on the disclosures within our consolidated financial statements.

Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-03, "Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses". The ASU, among other items, requires additional financial statement disclosures in tabular format disaggregating information about prescribed categories (including employee compensation, depreciation and amortization) underlying any relevant income statement

expense captions. The ASU is effective on a prospective basis for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027, with early adoption and retrospective application permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact this guidance will have on the disclosures within our consolidated financial statements.

2. Accounts and Other Receivables

The Company's accounts receivable and securitized accounts receivable include the following at March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024 (in thousands):

March 31, 2025December 31, 2024
Gross domestic accounts receivable$1,113,721$945,714
Gross domestic securitized accounts receivable1,469,0001,323,000
Gross foreign receivables1,579,3421,278,543
Total gross receivables4,162,0633,547,257
Less allowance for credit losses(146,244)(133,757)
Net accounts and securitized accounts receivables$4,015,819$3,413,500

The Company maintains a $1.8 billion revolving trade accounts receivable securitization facility (as amended from time to time, the "Securitization Facility"). Accounts receivable collateralized within our Securitization Facility relate to trade receivables resulting primarily from charge card activity and other customer receivables in the U.S. Pursuant to the terms of the Securitization Facility, the Company transfers in the form of a legal sale certain of its domestic receivables, on a revolving basis, to FLEETCOR Funding LLC ("Funding"), a wholly-owned bankruptcy remote consolidated subsidiary. In turn, Funding transfers in the form of a legal sale, without recourse, on a revolving basis, an undivided ownership interest in this pool of accounts receivable to unrelated transferees (i.e., multi-seller banks and asset-backed commercial paper conduits). Funding retains a residual, subordinated interest in cash flow distribution from the transferred receivables and provides to the transferees an incremental pledge of unsold receivables as a form of over-collateralization to enhance the credit of the transferred receivables. Purchases by the banks and conduits are generally financed with the sale of highly-rated commercial paper.

The Company utilizes proceeds from the securitized assets as an alternative to other forms of financing to reduce its overall borrowing costs. The Company has agreed to continue servicing the sold receivables for the financial institution at market rates, which approximates the Company’s cost of servicing. Funding determines the level of funding achieved by the sale of trade accounts receivable, subject to a maximum amount. As the Company maintains certain continuing involvement in the transferred/sold receivables, it does not derecognize the receivables from its Consolidated Balance Sheets. Instead, the Company records cash proceeds and any residual interest received as a Securitization Facility liability.

The Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets and Statements of Income reflect the activity related to securitized accounts receivable and the corresponding securitized debt, including interest income, fees generated from late payments, provision for losses on accounts receivable and interest expense. The cash flows from borrowings and repayments associated with the securitized debt are presented as cash flows from financing activities. The maturity date for the Company's Securitization Facility is January 24, 2028.

A roll forward of the Company’s allowance for credit losses related to accounts receivable for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024 is as follows (in thousands):

20252024
Allowance for credit losses beginning of period$133,757$180,163
Provision for credit losses30,66125,342
Write-offs(24,650)(19,532)
Recoveries1,5333,093
Impact of foreign currency4,943(4,179)
Allowance for credit losses end of period$146,244$184,887

The provision for credit losses increased during the three months ended March 31, 2025 versus the comparable prior period primarily due to growth of the business, as credit loss expense as a percentage of spend was consistent with the comparable prior period. Write-offs include fully reserved receivables against the allowance.

3. Fair Value Measurements

The following table presents the Company’s financial assets and liabilities which are measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024 (in thousands):

The level within the fair value hierarchy and the measurement technique are reviewed quarterly. The valuation techniques and inputs used to estimate the fair value of the Company's Level 2 assets and liabilities are consistent with those used at December 31, 2024. Transfers between levels are deemed to have occurred at the end of the quarter. There were no transfers between fair value levels during the periods presented for March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024.

The Company regularly evaluates the carrying value of its investments. The carrying amount of investments without readily determinable fair values was $62.7 million and $60.1 million at March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively.

4. Stockholders' Equity

The Company's Board of Directors (the "Board") has approved a stock repurchase program (as updated from time to time, the "Program") authorizing the Company to repurchase up to $9.1 billion of its common stock from time to time until February 4, 2026.

During the three months ended March 31, 2025, the Company repurchased 157,234 shares for an aggregate purchase price of $58.7 million. Since the beginning of the Program through March 31, 2025, 33,247,914 shares have been repurchased for an aggregate purchase price of $7.9 billion, leaving the Company up to $1.2 billion of remaining authorization available under the Program for future repurchases of shares of its common stock.

6. Acquisitions

2025 Acquisition

In February 2025, the Company acquired 100% of Gringo, a leading Brazil-based vehicle registration and compliance payment company, for approximately $153.7 million, net of cash and cash equivalents acquired of approximately $10.2 million. Immediately prior to the acquisition, the Company infused capital equal to the purchase price into Zapay, one of the Company's less than wholly owned subsidiaries, in order for Zapay to complete the acquisition of Gringo. As a result of the capital infusion by the Company, the Company's controlling interest in Zapay increased to approximately 86%. This transaction, which was accounted for separately from the business acquisition, was recorded as an equity transaction. The Company financed the acquisition using available cash. Results from the Gringo acquisition have been included in the Company's Vehicle Payments segment from the date of acquisition.

The Gringo acquisition was accounted for as a business combination. Acquisition accounting is preliminary for the Gringo acquisition as the Company is still completing the valuation of intangible assets, income taxes, working capital and contingencies. As the Gringo acquisition occurred near the end of the first quarter of 2025, the Company preliminarily allocated the excess of the purchase price of the acquisition over the estimated assets acquired and liabilities assumed to goodwill and customer relationship intangible assets on a provisional basis, based on historical valuation outcomes. None of the goodwill attributable to the acquisition of Gringo is expected to be deductible for tax purposes.

The following table summarizes the preliminary acquisition accounting for the Gringo acquisition noted above (in thousands):

Total consideration paid$153,719

2024 Acquisitions

In March 2024, the Company acquired 70% of the outstanding stock of Zapay, a Brazil-based digital consumer mobility solution for paying vehicle-related taxes and compliance fees, for approximately $59.5 million, net of cash. As part of the agreement, the Company has the right to acquire the remainder of Zapay in four years from the acquisition date. The majority investment in Zapay further scales the Company's Vehicle Payments business in Brazil. The Company recorded goodwill of approximately $73.3 million representing the strategic benefits of the majority investment in Zapay. None of the goodwill attributable to the acquisition of Zapay is expected to be deductible for tax purposes.

In July 2024, the Company acquired 100% of the stock of Paymerang, a U.S.-based leader in accounts payables automation solutions, for approximately $179.2 million, net of cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash acquired of $309 million. The Company preliminarily recorded goodwill of approximately $308.1 million representing the strategic benefits of the acquisition, which expands Corpay's presence in several markets, including education, healthcare, hospitality and manufacturing. None of the goodwill attributable to the acquisition of Paymerang is expected to be deductible for tax purposes.

In December 2024, the Company acquired 100% of GPS Capital Markets, LLC ("GPS") for approximately $576.2 million, net of cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash acquired of $190.7 million. GPS provides business-to-business cross-border and treasury management solutions to upper middle market companies, primarily in the U.S. As the Company acquired a single member LLC, the acquisition allowed for all U.S. assets to be stepped-up to fair value at the acquisition date and goodwill to be deductible for federal income tax purposes. The Company preliminarily recorded goodwill of approximately $332.9 million representing the strategic benefits of the acquisition of GPS, which further scales the Company's cross-border solution. All of the goodwill attributable to the acquisition of GPS is expected to be deductible for tax purposes.

The aggregate consideration paid for these acquisitions was approximately $814.9 million, net of cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash of $509.0 million. The Company financed the acquisitions using a combination of available cash and borrowings under its existing credit facility. Results from these acquisitions have been included in the Company's consolidated results from the respective date of each acquisition. Results from the Zapay acquisition have been included in the Company's Vehicle Payments segment and the results of both Paymerang and GPS have been included in the Company's Corporate Payments segment. In connection with certain of the 2024 acquisitions, the Company signed noncompete agreements valued at approximately $26.6 million, which were accounted for separately from the business acquisition and recorded within other intangibles, net in the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets.

All of the 2024 acquisitions are accounted for as business combinations. Acquisition accounting for Zapay was completed during the first quarter of 2025 as the measurement period closed. Acquisition accounting for Paymerang and GPS is still preliminary. The primary areas of the preliminary acquisition accounting that are not yet finalized relate to the following: (i) finalizing the review and valuation of intangible assets, including key assumptions, inputs and estimates and certain useful life assumptions, (ii) compiling and reviewing customer deposits records, (iii) finalizing the Company's estimate of the impact of acquisition accounting on deferred income taxes or liabilities, (iv) finalizing the Company's review of certain working capital accounts acquired, and (v) finalizing the evaluation and valuation of certain legal matters and/or other loss contingencies, including those that the Company may not yet be aware of but meet the requirement to qualify as a pre-acquisition contingency. There were no material measurement period adjustments recorded during the first quarter of 2025 related to the 2024 acquisitions.

8. Debt

The Company is party to a $8.25 billion Credit Agreement (the "Credit Agreement"), with Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent, swing line lender and letter of credit issuer and a syndicate of financial institutions (the "Lenders"), which has been amended multiple times. The Credit Agreement includes a Term Loan A, a Term Loan B and a revolving credit facility. As noted in footnote 2, the Company is also party to the Securitization Facility.

The balances of the Company’s debt instruments under the Credit Agreement and the Securitization Facility are as follows (in thousands):

On February 20, 2025, the Company entered into the sixteenth amendment to the Credit Agreement. The amendment increased the Term Loan B commitments by $750 million. The Company primarily used the Term Loan B proceeds to pay down existing borrowings under the revolving credit facility. The maturity dates and the interest rates for the revolving credit facility, Term Loan A commitments and Term Loan B commitments were unchanged by this amendment.

The Company was in compliance with all financial and non-financial covenants under the Credit Agreement and Securitization Facility at March 31, 2025.

9. Income Taxes

The Company's effective tax rate was 25.5% and 24.7% for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Income tax expense is based on an estimated annual effective rate, which requires the Company to make its best estimate of annual pretax accounting income or loss before consideration of tax or benefit discretely recognized in the period in which such occur. Our effective income tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2025 differs from the U.S. federal statutory rate due primarily to the unfavorable impact of state taxes net of federal benefits, additional taxes on undistributed foreign-sourced income and foreign withholding taxes on interest income from intercompany notes.

10. Earnings Per Share

The calculation and reconciliation of basic and diluted earnings per share attributable to Corpay for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024 is as follows (in thousands, except per share data):

Three Months Ended March 31,
20252024

Diluted earnings per share attributable to Corpay$3.40$3.12

Diluted earnings per share attributable to Corpay for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024 excludes the effect of 0.1 million and 0.3 million shares, respectively, of common stock that may be issued upon the exercise of employee stock options because such effect would be anti-dilutive. Diluted earnings per share attributable to Corpay also excludes the effect of an immaterial amount of performance-based restricted stock for which the performance criteria have not yet been achieved for the three month periods ended March 31, 2025 and 2024.

12. Commitments and Contingencies

In the ordinary course of business, 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. 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.

On April 1, 2025, the Court granted defendants’ motion to dismiss the consolidated lawsuit. To date, plaintiffs have not filed an appeal.

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 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. 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 administrative 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.

13. Derivative Financial Instruments and Hedging Activities

Foreign Currency Derivatives

The Company uses derivatives to facilitate cross-currency corporate payments by writing derivatives to customers within its cross-border solution. The Company writes derivatives, primarily foreign currency forward contracts, option contracts and swaps, mostly with small and medium size enterprises that are customers and derives a currency spread from this activity.

Derivative transactions associated with the Company's cross-border solution include:

  • Forward contracts, which are commitments to buy or sell at a future date a currency at a contract price and will be settled in cash.

  • Option contracts, which give the purchaser the right, but not the obligation, to buy or sell within a specified time a currency at a contracted price that may be settled in cash.

  • Swap contracts, which are commitments to settlement in cash at a future date or dates, usually on an overnight basis.

The credit risk inherent in derivative agreements represents the possibility that a loss may occur from the nonperformance of a counterparty to the agreements. Concentrations of credit and performance risk may exist with counterparties, which includes customers and banking partners, as the Company is engaged in similar activities with similar economic characteristics related to fluctuations in foreign currency rates. The Company performs a review of the credit risk of these counterparties at the inception of the contract and on an ongoing basis. The Company also monitors the concentration of its contracts with any individual counterparty against limits at the individual counterparty level. The Company anticipates that the counterparties will be able to fully satisfy their obligations under the agreements, but takes action when doubt arises about the counterparties' ability to perform. These actions may include requiring customers to post or increase collateral, and for all counterparties, if the counterparty does not perform under the term of the contract, the contract may be terminated. The Company does not designate any of its foreign exchange derivatives as hedging instruments in accordance with ASC 815, "Derivatives and Hedging".

The aggregate equivalent U.S. dollar notional amount of foreign exchange derivative customer contracts held by the Company was $103.1 billion and $93.0 billion as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024. The majority of customer foreign exchange contracts are written in currencies such as the U.S. dollar, Canadian dollar, British pound, euro and Australian dollar.

The following table summarizes the fair value of derivatives reported in the Consolidated Balance Sheets as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024 (in millions):

The fair values of derivative assets and liabilities associated with contracts, which include netting terms that the Company believes to be enforceable, have been recorded net within prepaid expenses and other current assets, other assets, other current liabilities and other noncurrent liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company receives cash from customers as collateral for trade exposures, which is recorded within cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash and customer deposits liability in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. At March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company had received collateral of $38.3 million and $35.0 million, respectively. The customer has the right to recall their collateral in the event exposures move in their favor or below the collateral posting thresholds, they perform on all outstanding contracts and have no outstanding amounts due to the Company, or they cease to do business with the Company. The Company has trading lines with several banks, most of which require collateral to be posted if certain mark-to-market (MTM) thresholds are exceeded. Cash collateral posted with banks is recorded within restricted cash and can be recalled in the event that exposures move in the Company’s favor or move below the collateral posting thresholds. The Company does not offset fair value amounts recognized for the right to reclaim cash collateral or the obligation to return cash collateral. At March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company had posted collateral of $545.7 million and $718.1 million, respectively, which was not offset against the fair value of its derivatives. Cash flows from the Company's foreign currency derivatives are classified as operating activities within the Unaudited Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. The following table presents the fair value of the Company’s derivative assets and liabilities, as well as their classification on the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets, as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024 (in millions):

Cash Flow Hedges

As of March 31, 2025, the Company had the following outstanding interest rate swap derivatives that qualify as hedging instruments within designated cash flow hedges of variable interest rate risk (in millions):

Notional AmountWeighted Average Fixed RateMaturity Date
$5004.01%7/31/2025
$5003.80%1/31/2026
$1,5004.15%7/31/2026
$7504.14%1/31/2027
$5004.19%7/31/2027
$2504.00%1/31/2028
$5003.19%7/31/2028

The purpose of these contracts is to reduce the variability of cash flows in interest payments associated with the Company's unspecified variable rate debt, the sole source of which is due to changes in the SOFR benchmark interest rate. The Company has designated these derivative instruments as cash flow hedging instruments, which are expected to be highly effective at offsetting changes in cash flows of the related underlying exposure. As a result, changes in fair value of the interest rate swaps are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss. For each of these swap contracts, the Company pays a fixed monthly rate and receives one month SOFR. The Company reclassified $3.9 million and $12.7 million from accumulated other comprehensive loss resulting in a benefit to interest expense, net for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, related to these interest rate swap contracts. Cash flows related to the Company's interest rate swap derivatives are classified as operating activities within the Unaudited Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows, as such cash flows relate to hedged interest payments recorded in operating activities.

For derivatives accounted for as hedging instruments, the Company formally designates and documents, at inception, the financial instrument as a hedge of a specific underlying exposure, the risk management objective and the strategy for undertaking the hedge transaction. The Company formally assesses, both at the inception and at least quarterly thereafter, whether the financial instruments used in hedging transactions are highly effective at offsetting changes in cash flows of the related underlying exposures.

The following table presents the fair value of the Company’s interest rate swap contracts, as well as their classification on the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets, as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024 (in millions). See Note 3 for additional information on the fair value of the Company’s swap contracts.

As of March 31, 2025, the estimated amount of net losses recognized in accumulated other comprehensive loss that are expected to be reclassified into earnings within the next 12 months is approximately $3.5 million.

Net Investment Hedges

The Company enters into cross-currency interest rate swaps that are designated as net investment hedges of our investments in foreign-denominated operations. Such contracts effectively convert the U.S. dollar equivalent notional amounts to obligations denominated in the respective foreign currency and partially offset the impact of changes in currency rates on such foreign-denominated net investments. These contracts also create a positive interest differential on the U.S. dollar-denominated portion of the swaps, resulting in interest rate savings on the USD notional.

At March 31, 2025, the Company had the following cross-currency interest rate swaps designated as net investment hedges of our investments in foreign-denominated operations:

U.S. dollar equivalent notional (in millions)Fixed RatesMaturity Date
Euro (EUR)$5002.15%5/26/2026
Canadian Dollar (CAD)$8001.35%1/24/2028
British Pound (GBP)$7500.317%5/8/2028

Hedge effectiveness is tested based on changes in the fair value of the cross-currency swaps due to changes in the USD/foreign currency spot rates. The Company anticipates perfect effectiveness of the designated hedging relationships and records changes in the fair value of the cross-currency interest rate swaps associated with changes in the spot rate through accumulated other comprehensive loss. Excluded components associated with the forward differential are recognized directly in earnings as interest expense, net. The Company recognized a benefit of $5.9 million and $2.0 million in interest expense, net for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, related to these excluded components. Upon settlement, cash flows attributable to derivatives designated as net investment hedges are classified as investing activities in the Unaudited Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

The following table presents the fair value of the Company’s cross-currency interest rate swaps designated as net investment hedges, as well as their classification on the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets, as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024 (in millions).

Net investment hedgeOther assets$—$8.0
Net investment hedgeOther noncurrent liabilities$50.6$5.2

In January 2025, the Company terminated its existing CAD cross-currency interest rate swaps designated as net investment hedges and subsequently entered into four new cross-currency interest rate swaps designated as net investment hedges of its investments in CAD-denominated operations. These contracts effectively convert an aggregate $800 million of U.S. dollar equivalent to an obligation denominated in CAD and partially offset the impact of changes in currency rates on our CAD-denominated net investments. These contracts also create a positive interest differential on the U.S. dollar-denominated portion of the swap, resulting in a weighted average interest rate savings of 1.35% on the USD notional.

As of March 31, 2025, the estimated net amount of the existing gains related to the Company's cross-currency interest rate swaps designated as net investment hedges that are expected to be reclassified into earnings within the next 12 months is approximately $24.3 million.

14. Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss (AOCL)

Other comprehensive loss attributable to the Company's noncontrolling interest, which are not included in the tables above, for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024 consisted of foreign currency translation gains of $5.1 million and foreign currency translation losses of $0.2 million, respectively.

15. Subsequent Events

Strategic Partnership

In April 2025, the Company expanded its long-standing strategic partnership agreement with Mastercard to deliver an enhanced suite of corporate cross-border payment solutions. The transaction also includes an investment in the Company's Cross-Border business with Mastercard acquiring a 2.8% interest in the Cross-Border business for $300 million. For six months starting on July 1, 2027 (subject to extension if investment closing is delayed), Mastercard will have the right to sell its interest back to the Company. If Mastercard does not exercise that right, for four months starting on April 1, 2028 (subject to extension if investment closing is delayed), the Company will have a reciprocal repurchase right. In each case, the purchase price is the amount of invested capital plus 8% per annum, compounded annually. The investment into the Company’s Cross-Border business is expected to close during the second half of 2025.

Minority Investment

In May 2025, the Company and TPG formed a limited partnership that, through its wholly owned subsidiaries, entered into a definitive agreement to acquire AvidXchange Holdings, Inc (NASDAQ: AVDX) (“AvidXchange”). AvidXchange is a provider of accounts payable (AP) automation solutions to lower middle market companies with a focus on several verticals including real estate, homeowners associations, financial institutions and media. The transaction is expected to close in the fourth quarter of 2025, subject to regulatory approvals, AvidXchange shareholder approval and other standard closing conditions.

The Company invested approximately $550 million for approximately 34% of the equity in the limited partnership for an approximately $1.9 billion enterprise valuation. The partnership will utilize approximately $450 million of debt financing to consummate the transaction. TPG will hold approximately 57% of the equity, and the management team of AvidXchange will hold the remainder. In addition to other terms, the limited partnership agreement provides that, 33 months after closing of the AvidXchange acquisition, the Company will have the right to acquire all the remaining outstanding equity in the limited partnership for approximately 2.5 times invested capital. If, in fact, we achieve our business plan, then this could represent an attractive valuation. If the Company does not exercise such right to acquire all of the remaining outstanding equity and TPG decides to sell the limited partnership to a third party within a period of 15 months thereafter, the Company will guarantee a return to its partners, subject to certain limitations, of approximately 1.6 times invested capital. The partnership will ultimately need to sell AvidXchange in 2029 for an approximately similar valuation as today’s acquisition price to avoid the requirement to pay any minimum return payment.
