We've worked diligently to further scale our platform organically and inorganically, diversify the business across high-growth discretionary and non-discretionary verticals, increase our use cases, target more end markets, and increase our distribution; all of which combined substantially expands our TAM to now include global e-commerce, integrated payments and B2B," said Philip Fayer, Nuvei Chair and CEO. "I am very pleased with our results and we're off to a great start with the momentum exiting last year carrying over into 2023.

**Operational Highlights** 

• Revenue for the fourth quarter of 2022 increased 17% to $89.4 million in North America, decreased by 9% to $115.9 million in Europe, the Middle East and Africa, increased 90% to $12.2 million in Latin America and increased 107% to $2.9 million in Asia Pacific.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;◦ North America eCommerce direct revenue increased 65% to $34 million in this year's fourth quarter and represented approximately 38% of total North America revenue, as a result of strategic investments in senior talent and distribution.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;◦ Europe, the Middle East and Africa results were impacted by fluctuations in foreign currency and the volatility in digital assets and cryptocurrencies.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;◦ Latin America results accelerated rapidly, driven by significant new business and wallet share expansion from current customers expanding into those countries.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;◦ Asia Pacific growth reflects recent successes with scaling acquiring capabilities in Singapore and Hong Kong, with Australia recently added as the third market in the region.

• With respect to advancements in technology and product innovation, during the full year Nuvei launched 96 new product releases. Recent highlights include:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;◦ Conducting a successful pilot in North America to begin insourcing back-end processing, with full migration onto the Nuvei platform planned over the next 18 months;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;◦ Launching direct acquiring capabilities in Australia;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;◦ Becoming a licensed in-country direct acquirer in Belgium for local card network Bancontact;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;◦ Facilitating American Express's entrance into the Canadian gaming market;

• Nuvei also added multiple new alternative payment methods ("APMs") increasing its portfolio to 603 at the end of the fourth quarter, expanding access and allowing its customers to accept more forms of regionally familiar and preferred digital payment methods.

• New business revenue outside of digital assets and cryptocurrencies<sup>1</sup> increased 23% during the fourth quarter, including several enterprise level customer wins. Highlighting some of the new and expanded customer relationships in which Nuvei is deploying its proprietary modular platform to provide a more frictionless payment experience:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;◦ OnBuy; Virgin Atlantic; DraftKings; VTEX; Redeban; Holland Casino; Le Panier Bleu; and Unibet Italy, among others.

• The Company added 54 new team members in the fourth quarter of 2022, ending with 1,690 employees at December 31, 2022 compared with 1,368 employees at December 31, 2021. Subsequent to the end of the year, Nuvei added 321 new team members in association with the close of the Paya acquisition

**Financial Outlook**<sup>(3)</sup>

For the three months ending March 31, 2023 and the fiscal year ending December 31, 2023, Nuvei anticipates Total volume<sup>(1)</sup>, Revenue, Revenue at constant currency and Adjusted EBITDA<sup>(2)</sup> to be in the ranges below. The financial outlook reflects the closing of the acquisition of Paya on February 22, 2023. Nuvei expects Organic revenue growth excluding digital assets and cryptocurrencies at constant currency to be between 23% and 28% for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2023.

<sup>1</sup> Calculated as the fourth quarter revenue attributable to new customers added in 2022 outside of the digital assets and cryptocurrencies vertical, relative to the fourth quarter revenue attributable to new customers added in 2021 outside of the digital assets and cryptocurrencies vertical, in each case as calculated in accordance with the accounting policies used to prepare the revenue line item presented in the Company's financial statements under IFRS. The Company does not intend to provide this information on an on-going basis.

The financial outlook, including the various underlying assumptions, constitute forward-looking information within the meaning of applicable securities laws and is fully qualified and based on a number of assumptions and subject to a number of risks described under the headings "Forward-Looking Information" and "Financial Outlook and Growth Targets Assumptions" of this press release.

**Growth Targets**

Nuvei's medium-term<sup>(4)</sup> annual growth target for revenue, as well as its medium-term<sup>(4)</sup> target for capital expenditures (acquisition of intangible assets and property and equipment) as a percentage of revenue and long-term target for Adjusted EBITDA margin<sup>(2)</sup>, are shown in the table below. Nuvei's targets are intended to provide insight into the execution of our strategy as it relates to growth, profitability and cash generation. As a result, Nuvei is updating its medium-term growth targets by removing Total volume and adding capital expenditures as a percentage of revenue. In addition, as a result of the Paya acquisition, Nuvei is updating the medium-term revenue target from 30%+ to 20%+ annual year-over-year growth. These medium<sup>(4)</sup> and long-term<sup>(4)</sup> targets should not be considered as projections, forecasts or expected results but rather goals that we seek to achieve from the execution of our strategy over time, and at a further stage of business maturity, through geographic expansion, product innovation, growing wallet share with existing customers and new customer wins, as more fully described under the heading "Summary of Factors Affecting our Performance" of our most recent Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations. These growth targets, including the various underlying assumptions, constitute forward-looking information within the meaning of applicable securities laws and are fully qualified and based on a number of assumptions and subject to a number of risks described under the headings "Forward-Looking Information" and "Financial Outlook and Growth Targets Assumptions" of this press release. We will review and revise these growth targets as economic, market and regulatory environments change.

This is the performance of the Company with respect to these metrics over the last three years:

---

| | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| (in US dollars except the percentages) | **2020** | **2021** | **2022** |
| Total volume<sup>(1)</sup> (in billion) | 43.2 | 95.6 | 127.7 |
| Total volume<sup>(1)</sup> annual year-over-year growth (%) | 76% | 121% | 34% |
| Revenue (in thousands) | 376226 | 724526 | 843323 |
| Revenue annual year-over-year growth (%) | 53% | 93% | 16% |
| Adjusted EBITDA<sup>(2)</sup> (in thousands) | 162982 | 317234 | 351317 |
| Adjusted EBITDA margin<sup>(2)</sup> (%) | 43% | 44% | 42% |
| Capital expenditures<sup>(5)</sup> (in thousands) | 17843 | 27169 | 48322 |
| Capital expenditures<sup>(5)</sup> as a percentage of revenue (%) | 4.7% | 3.7% | 5.7% |

---

<sup>(1)</sup> Total volume does not represent revenue earned by the Company, but rather the total dollar value of transactions processed by merchants under contractual agreement with the Company. See "Non-IFRS and Other Financial Measures" below.

<sup>(2)</sup> Revenue at constant currency, Revenue growth at constant currency, Organic revenue excluding digital assets and cryptocurrencies at constant currency, Organic revenue growth excluding digital assets and cryptocurrencies at constant currency, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, Adjusted net income, Adjusted net income per diluted share and Adjusted EBITDA less capital expenditures are non-IFRS measures and non-IFRS ratios. See "Non-IFRS and Other Financial Measures".

<sup>(3)</sup> Other than with respect to revenue and capital expenditures as a percentage of revenue, the Company only provides guidance on a non-IFRS basis. The Company does not provide a reconciliation of forward-looking revenue at constant currency (non-IFRS), Organic revenue growth excluding digital assets and cryptocurrencies at constant currency (non-IFRS) to revenue, and Adjusted EBITDA (non-IFRS) to net income (loss) due to the inherent difficulty in forecasting and quantifying certain amounts that are necessary for such reconciliation such as predicting the future impact and timing of acquisitions and divestitures, foreign exchange rates and the volatility in digital assets. In periods where significant acquisitions or divestitures are not expected, the Company believes it might have a basis for forecasting the IFRS equivalent for certain costs, such as employee benefits, commissions and depreciation and amortization. However, because other deductions such as share-based payments, net finance costs, gain (loss) on financial instruments carried at fair market value and current and deferred income taxes used to calculate projected net income (loss) can vary significantly based on actual events, the Company is not able to forecast on an IFRS basis with reasonable certainty all deductions needed in order to provide an IFRS calculation of projected net income (loss). The amount of these deductions may be material and, therefore, could result in projected IFRS net income (loss) being materially less than projected Adjusted EBITDA (non-IFRS). These statements represent forward-looking information and may represent a financial outlook, and actual results may vary. See the risk and assumptions described under the headings "Forward-looking information" and "Financial Outlook and Growth Targets Assumptions" of this press release.

<sup>(4)</sup> The Company defines "Medium-term" as between three and five years and "long-term" as five to seven years.

<sup>(5)</sup> Capital expenditures means acquisition of Property and equipment and acquisition of intangible assets.

**Non-IFRS and Other Financial Measures**

Nuvei's audited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with IFRS as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board. The information presented in this press release includes non-IFRS financial measures, non-IFRS financial ratios and supplementary financial measures, namely Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, Revenue at constant currency, Revenue growth at constant currency, Organic Revenue at constant currency, Organic revenue growth at constant currency, Organic revenue excluding digital assets and cryptocurrencies at constant currency, Organic revenue growth excluding digital assets and cryptocurrencies at constant currency, Adjusted net income, Adjusted net income per basic share, Adjusted net income per diluted share, Adjusted EBITDA less capital expenditures, Total volume, Total volume at constant currency, Total organic volume at constant currency and eCommerce volume. These measures are not recognized measures under IFRS and do not have standardized meanings prescribed by IFRS and therefore may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. Rather, these measures are provided as additional information to complement IFRS measures by providing further understanding of our results of operations from our perspective. Accordingly, these measures should not be considered in isolation nor as a substitute for analysis of the Company's financial statements reported under IFRS. These measures are used to provide investors with additional insight of our operating performance and thus highlight trends in Nuvei's business that may not otherwise be apparent when relying solely on IFRS measures. We also believe that securities analysts, investors and other interested parties frequently use these non-IFRS and other financial measures in the evaluation of issuers. We also use these measures in order to facilitate operating performance comparisons from period to period, to prepare annual operating budgets and forecasts and to determine components of management compensation. We believe these measures are important additional measures of our performance, primarily because they and similar measures are used widely among others in the payment technology industry as a means of evaluating a company's underlying operating performance.

------

**Non-IFRS Financial Measures**

**Revenue at constant currency:** Revenue at constant currency means revenue adjusted for the impact of foreign currency exchange fluctuations. This measure helps provide insight on comparable revenue growth by removing the effect of changes in foreign currency exchange rates year-over-year. Foreign currency exchange impact in the current period is calculated using prior period quarterly average exchange rates applied to the current period foreign currency amounts.

**Organic revenue at constant currency:** Organic revenue at constant currency means revenue excluding the revenue attributable to acquired businesses for a period of 12 months following their acquisition and excluding revenue attributable to divested businesses, adjusted for the impact of foreign currency exchange fluctuations. Foreign currency exchange impact in the current period is calculated using prior period quarterly average exchange rates applied to the current period foreign currency amounts. This measure helps provide insight on organic and acquisition-related growth and presents useful information about comparable revenue growth.

**Organic revenue excluding digital assets and cryptocurrencies at constant currency:** Organic revenue excluding digital assets and cryptocurrencies at constant currency means revenue excluding the revenue attributable to acquired businesses for a period of 12 months following their acquisition and excluding revenue attributable to divested businesses and digital assets and cryptocurrencies, and adjusted for the impact of foreign currency exchange fluctuations. This measure helps provide insight on comparable revenue growth by removing the effect of volatility in digital assets and cryptocurrencies and changes in foreign currency exchange rates year-over-year. Foreign currency exchange impact in the current period is calculated using prior period quarterly average exchange rates applied to the current period foreign currency amounts. The revenue attributable to digital assets and cryptocurrencies is calculated in accordance with the accounting policies used to prepare the revenue line item presented in the Company's financial statements under IFRS.

**Adjusted EBITDA**: We use Adjusted EBITDA as a means to evaluate operating performance, by eliminating the impact of non-operational or non-cash items. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income (loss) before finance costs (recovery), finance income, depreciation and amortization, income tax expense, acquisition, integration and severance costs, share-based payments and related payroll taxes, loss (gain) on foreign currency exchange, and legal settlement and other.

**Adjusted EBITDA less capital expenditures:** We use Adjusted EBITDA less capital expenditures (acquisition of intangible assets and property and equipment) as a supplementary indicator of our operating performance. In the third quarter of 2022, we retrospectively modified the label of this measure from "Free cash flow" in order to more clearly reflect its composition.

**Adjusted net income:** We use Adjusted net income as an indicator of business performance and profitability with our current tax and capital structure. Adjusted net income is defined as net income (loss) before acquisition, integration and severance costs, share-based payments and related payroll taxes, loss (gain) on foreign currency exchange, amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets, and the related income tax expense or recovery for these items. Adjusted net income also excludes change in redemption value of liability-classified common and preferred shares, change in fair value of share repurchase liability and accelerated amortization of deferred transaction costs and legal settlement and other.

------

**Non-IFRS Financial Ratios**

**Revenue growth at constant currency:** Revenue growth at constant currency means the year-over-year change in Revenue at constant currency divided by reported revenue in the prior period. We use Revenue growth at constant currency to provide better comparability of revenue trends year-over-year, without the impact of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates.

**Organic revenue growth at constant currency:** Organic revenue growth at constant currency means the year-over-year change in Organic revenue at constant currency divided by comparable Organic revenue in the prior period. We use Organic revenue growth at constant currency to provide better comparability of revenue trends year-over-year, without the impact of acquisitions, divestitures and fluctuations in foreign currency exchanges rates.

**Organic revenue growth excluding digital assets and cryptocurrencies at constant currency:** Organic revenue growth excluding digital assets and cryptocurrencies at constant currency means the year-over-year change in Organic revenue excluding digital assets and cryptocurrencies at constant currency divided by comparable Organic revenue excluding digital assets and cryptocurrencies in the prior period. We use Organic revenue growth excluding digital assets and cryptocurrencies at constant currency to provide better comparability of revenue trends year-over-year, without the impact of volatility in digital assets and cryptocurrencies and fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates.

**Adjusted EBITDA margin:** Adjusted EBITDA margin means Adjusted EBITDA divided by revenue.

**Adjusted net income per basic share and per diluted share:** We use Adjusted net income per basic share and per diluted share as an indicator of performance and profitability of our business on a per share basis. Adjusted net income per basic share and per diluted share means Adjusted net income less net income attributable to non-controlling interest divided by the basic and diluted weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. The number of share-based awards used in the diluted weighted average number of common shares outstanding in the Adjusted net income per diluted share calculation is determined using the treasury stock method as permitted under IFRS.

**Supplementary Financial Measures**

We monitor the following key performance indicators to help us evaluate our business, measure our performance, identify trends affecting our business, formulate business plans and make strategic decisions. Our key performance indicators may be calculated in a manner that differs from similar key performance indicators used by other companies

**Total volume and eCommerce volume**: We believe Total volume and eCommerce volume are indicators of performance of our business. Total volume and similar measures are used widely among others in the payments industry as a means of evaluating a company's performance. We define Total volume as the total dollar value of transactions processed in the period by customers under contractual agreement with us. eCommerce volume is the portion of Total volume for which the transaction did not occur at a physical location. Total volume and eCommerce volume do not represent revenue earned by us. Total volume includes acquiring volume, where we are in the flow of funds in the settlement transaction cycle, gateway/technology volume, where we provide our gateway/technology services but are not in the flow of funds in the settlement transaction cycle, as well as the total dollar value of transactions processed relating to APMs and payouts. Since our revenue is primarily sales volume and transaction-based, generated from merchants' daily sales and through various fees for value-added services provided to our customers, fluctuations in Total volume will generally impact our revenue.

------

**Total volume at constant currency:** Total volume at constant currency is used as an indicator of performance of our business on a more comparable foreign currency exchange basis. Total volume at constant currency means Total volume adjusted for the impact of foreign currency exchange fluctuations. This measure helps provide better comparability of business trends year-over-year, without the impact of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. Foreign currency exchange impact in the current period is calculated using prior period quarterly average exchange rates applied to the current period foreign currency amounts.
