<br> **Usio Announces Second Quarter 2025 Financial Results**

Total payment dollars processed through all payment channels up 15% versus the prior year period

Gross margin expands, and seventh consecutive quarter of positive Adjusted EBITDA<sup>1</sup>

SAN ANTONIO, August 6, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) – Usio, Inc., "Usio" or the "Company": (Nasdaq: USIO), a leading FinTech company that operates a full stack of integrated, cloud-based electronic payment and embedded financial solutions, today announced financial results for the second quarter, which ended June 30, 2025.

Louis Hoch, President and Chief Executive Officer of Usio, said, "Results in the second quarter continue to reflect improvements across key strategic objectives including another quarter of strong processing growth, positive operating cash flow, expanded margins and positive Adjusted EBITDA<sup>1</sup>. These results were achieved while we were effecting fundamental changes across the organization, implementing our new Usio One go-to-market strategy, reducing costs, improving efficiency while investing in, and implementing, new technologies such as wearables and biometric payment systems. We believe the impact of these changes is durable. There are now more new programs in implementation across all our businesses than at any time in our history while the organization has never been better structured to leverage this anticipated growth into attractive returns."

Total payment dollar processing volume growth was 15% in the second quarter of 2025, led for the second consecutive quarter by the strong recovery of our highest margin line of business, ACH, where electronic check dollar volume increased 19%, transactions grew 33% and returned check transactions grew 32%, all as compared to the same period last year. One of Usio's real-time payment methods, PINless debit, experienced its eighth consecutive quarter of growth, where transactions grew 144% and dollars processed grew 93% as compared to the same period last year, further accelerating the growth of our ACH and complementary services.

Consolidated revenues in the quarter were down slightly due to declines in our prepaid card services business unit, where revenues declined 26% in the second quarter of 2025 compared to the second quarter of 2024. This decline was due to a significant client of ours losing, in the second quarter of 2025, a downstream customer who contributed significant revenues to the organization in 2024. However, this decline was largely offset by continued strong growth in our ACH & complementary services business line where revenues were up over 30% for the second consecutive quarter compared to the same quarter of the prior year primarily attributable to an increase in ACH volume from net, new business and organic growth. Within our credit card business PayFac revenues continue their double-digit year-over-year growth as a result of net, new client implementations helping offset anticipated legacy card volume attrition. Credit card revenues were up for the first six months of the year compared to the same period of the prior year. Volumes are expected to benefit in the second half of the year from the steady ramp up of new implementations and a rebound in existing customer processing activity. Output Solutions total mail pieces processed and delivered were up 3% for the second quarter of 2025 compared to the second quarter of 2024, exceeding 5.4 million, and electronic only documents delivered exceeded 20 million for the second quarter of 2025. This strong processing activity is not reflected in revenues as the ongoing transition to a more electronic only document delivery model has the effect of reducing the price per unit processed compared to print and mail while at the same time improving profitability. Nevertheless, Output Solutions revenues are up for the first half of fiscal 2025 compared to the same period of 2024.

For the quarter ended June 30, 2025, margins expanded 185 basis points compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2024 due to both mix as well as efficiency and productivity enhancements across the organization. Selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") expenses increased $0.6 million from the same period last year, of which nearly all of the increase was related to several one-time expenses related to sponsorship and marketing events, insurance renewals, professional fees, and other one-time expense accruals. We believe our SG&A expenses will be significantly lower in the second half of the year such that total SG&A expenses in 2025 will be up only nominally compared to full year 2024. The Company reported a net loss of approximately $0.4 million, or ($0.01) per share for the second quarter of 2025, compared to net income of $0.1 million, or $0.00 per share, for the second quarter of 2024. Adjusted EBITDA<sup>1</sup> was $0.5 million for the second quarter of 2025, down incrementally compared to $0.8 million in the same quarter a year ago. Operating cash flow for the quarter was $1.1 million, which is net of over $1 million of non-recurring cash outlays, including $350,000 for share repurchases. The Company expects to see its cash position increase over the second half of fiscal 2025.

Mr. Hoch concluded, "The first half of the year was in line with our expectations as we not only continue to drive current results, but invest a significant amount of time and energy in achieving our strategic objectives to better leverage our extensive technology and other resources to accelerate profitability. We believe we are set up for a better back half of the year with numerous new accounts in various stages of implementation, including a new enterprise customer in our card business that we believe has the potential to consistently generate over $100 million in annual recurring processing volume. Our financial position is strong, and we continue to strategically deploy our capital with over $700,000 expended on share repurchases so far this year while maintaining sufficient liquidity to opportunistically capitalize on what has become a more active merger and acquisition market, which provides us potential opportunities to utilize our cash to further accelerate our growth through acquisition. However, due to prolonged customer caused implementation delays with two large national accounts, we are adjusting our revenue guidance expectations to 5– 12% growth this year with continued positive adjusted EBITDA<sup>1</sup>."

**<u>Quarterly Processing and Transaction Volumes</u>**

Total payment transactions processed in the second quarter of 2025 were 14.1 million, an increase of 26% over the same quarter of last year. Total payment dollars processed through all payment channels in the second quarter of 2025 were $1.94 billion, an improvement of 15% over last year's second quarter $1.68 billion in volume.

Our credit card segment continues to grow, where dollars processed were up 9% and transactions processed were up 69% from a year ago. In the second quarter of 2025, ACH electronic check transaction volume was up 33%, electronic check dollars processed were up 19% and return check transactions processed were up 32%, in each case, compared to the same quarter of 2024. In our Prepaid business unit, card load volume was down 51%, transactions processed down 37% and purchase volume down 23% for the second quarter of 2025 compared to the same quarter of 2024. Output Solutions pieces processed and mailed was up 3% while electronic documents processed and delivered were down 3% for the second quarter of 2025 compared to the same quarter of 2024.

<u>**Second Quarter 2025 Revenue Detail**</u>

Revenues for the quarter ended June 30, 2025 were $20.0 million, down 1% compared to the prior year quarter, due primarily to declines in our prepaid card services business line, partially offset by strong growth in our ACH and complementary services revenues.

Gross profit for the second quarter of 2025 was $5.1 million compared to $4.8 million for the second quarter of 2024, while gross margins (defined as gross profit as a percentage of revenues) were 25.8%, increasing from 23.9% in the same period a year ago. This was primarily due to growth from our high margin line of business, ACH and complementary services, as well as improving margins across our business.

Selling, general and administrative expenses, "SG&A", were $4.6 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2025, compared to $4.0 million in the prior year period. This was primarily related to several one-time expenses related to sponsorship and marketing events, alongside annual insurance renewals, professional fees, and other one-time expense accruals incurred during the period, including franchise taxes paid to the State of Texas. We believe that these expenses will decline in future quarters or, in the case of the franchise tax, are annual expenses, and that total SG&A expenses in the remainder of the year will only be nominally increased.

For the quarter, we reported an operating loss of $0.4 million compared to an operating loss of $0.2 million for the same quarter a year ago primarily due to increased SG&A expenses. Adjusted EBITDA<sup>1</sup> was $0.5 million for the quarter, compared to Adjusted EBITDA<sup>1</sup> of $0.8 million for the same quarter a year ago. Net loss in the quarter ended June 30, 2025 was approximately $0.4 million, or ($0.01) per share, compared to net income of $0.1 million, or $0.00 per share, for the same period in the prior year. The second quarter of 2024 included $0.3 million in other income related to the employee retention tax credit under the CARES Act.

Revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2025 were $42.0 million, up 2% compared to the prior year period, with revenues increasing in all business lines except our prepaid card services business line.

Gross profit for the six months ended June 30, 2025 was $9.9 million compared to $9.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, while gross margins were 23.7%, up from 23.5% in the same period a year ago. Gross profits were up primarily due to increased total revenues, combined with slightly increased overall margins related to growth in our high margin ACH and complementary services revenues.

Selling, general and administrative, "SG&A", expenses were $8.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025, up 9% compared to $8.1 million in the prior year period. This was primarily related to several one-time expenses related to sponsorship and marketing events, alongside annual insurance renewals, professional fees, and other one-time expense accruals incurred during the six-month period, including franchise taxes paid to the State of Texas. We believe that these expenses will decline in future quarters and that total SG&A expenses in the remainder of the year will only be nominally increased.

For the six months ended June 30, 2025, we reported an operating loss of $0.6 million compared to an operating loss of $0.5 million for the same period a year ago due to increased SG&A expenses. Adjusted EBITDA<sup>1</sup> was $0.5 million for the quarter, compared to Adjusted EBITDA<sup>1</sup> of $0.8 million for the same period a year ago. Net loss in the six months ended June 30, 2025 was approximately $0.6 million, or ($0.02) per share, compared to a net loss of $0.2 million, or ($0.0) per share, for the same period in the prior year, primarily attributable to the presence of $0.3 million in other income related to the employee retention tax credit received in the prior year period, distributed under the CARES Act.

Operating Cash Flows were increased to $1.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025, as compared to $0.5 million in the same period a year ago. The difference was driven primarily by a reduction in accounts receivable.

We continue to be in solid financial condition with $7.5 million in cash and cash equivalents as of June 30, 2025, a $0.6 million decrease in cash balances over the first six months of the year while over $700,000 was utilized to repurchase shares in the period.

<u>**Comparisons**</u>

Unless otherwise indicated, all comparisons and growth rates represent year-over-year comparisons, with the quarterly period of this year compared to the corresponding quarter of the prior year.

<u>**About Non-GAAP Financial Measures**</u>

This press release includes the non-GAAP financial measure, as defined in Regulation G adopted by the Securities and Exchange Commission, of Adjusted EBITDA. The Company reports its financial results in compliance with GAAP, but believes that also discussing non-GAAP financial measures provides investors with financial measures it uses in the management of its business.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• The Company defines EBITDA as operating income (loss), before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization of intangibles.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• The Company defines Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA, as defined above, plus non-cash stock option costs and certain non-recurring items, such as costs related to acquisitions.

Management believes presenting Adjusted EBITDA is helpful to investors in evaluating the Company's operating performance because non-cash costs and other items that management believes are not indicative of its results of operations are excluded.

Adjusted EBITDA should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. It is not a measurement of our financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to revenue, net income, or cash provided by (used in) operating activities, or any other performance measures derived in accordance with GAAP and may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other businesses. Adjusted EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool and you should not consider this non-GAAP financial measure in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our operating results as reported under GAAP.
