REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS
 
To Global Payments Inc.:
 
We have reviewed the consolidated balance sheet of GLOBAL PAYMENTS INC. (a Georgia corporation) and subsidiaries as of February 28, 2002, and the related consolidated statements of income for the three-month and nine-month periods ended February 28, 2002 and February 28, 2001. These financial statements are the responsibility of the company’s management.
 
We conducted our review in accordance with standards established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. A review of interim financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures to financial data and making inquires of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States, the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.
 
Based on our review, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the financial statements referred to above for them to be in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FEBRUARY 28, 2002
 
NOTE 1—SPIN-OFF AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION:
 
In December 1999, National Data Corporation, now known as NDCHealth Corporation (“NDC”) announced its intent to spin-off the NDC eCommerce business segment into a separate publicly traded company with its own management and Board of Directors (the “Distribution”). This Distribution occurred on January 31, 2001 (the “Distribution Date”) and was accomplished by forming Global Payments Inc. (“Global Payments” or the “Company”) on September 1, 2000, transferring the stock of the companies which comprised the NDC eCommerce business segment to Global Payments and then distributing all of the shares of common stock of Global Payments to NDC’s stockholders. NDC stockholders received 0.8 share of Global Payments stock for each NDC share held as of the Distribution Date. After the Distribution, Global Payments and NDC became two separate public companies.
 
The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its majority-owned subsidiaries. The Company is an integrated provider of high volume electronic transaction processing and value-added end-to-end information services and systems to merchants, multinational corporations, financial institutions, and government agencies. These services are marketed to customers within the merchant services and the funds transfer business through various sales channels.
 
The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, and present the Company’s financial position, results of operations, and cash flows. Through the Distribution Date, these amounts were derived from NDC’s historical financial statements. As further described in Note 7, certain corporate and interest expenses had been allocated to the Company that were not previously allocated to NDC’s eCommerce business segment. In the opinion of management, these allocations have been made on a reasonable basis. The costs of these services charged to the Company may not reflect the actual costs the Company would have incurred for similar services as a stand-alone company.
 
The unaudited interim financial statements included herein have been prepared by the Company, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although the Company believes that the disclosures are adequate and the information presented is not misleading. It is suggested that these financial statements be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Form 10-K for the fiscal year-ended May 31, 2001. In the opinion of management, the information furnished reflects all adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for such interim periods.
 
NOTE 2—SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:
 
On July 20, 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statements of Financial Accounting Standards No. 141, “Business Combinations” (“SFAS No. 141”) and No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets” (“SFAS No. 142”). SFAS No. 141 requires that all business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001 be accounted for under the purchase method. SFAS No. 142 eliminates the amortization of goodwill and certain other intangible assets and requires that goodwill be evaluated for impairment by applying a fair value-based test. In accordance with SFAS No. 142, the Company has elected to adopt the standard effective June 1, 2001. See Note 6.
 

6

Effective June 1, 2001, Global Payments adopted Statements of Financial Accounting Standard No. 133, “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities” (“SFAS No. 133”). SFAS No. 133 requires that a company recognize derivatives as assets or liabilities on its balance sheet, and also requires that the gain or loss related to the effective portion of derivatives designated as cash flow hedges be recorded as a component of other comprehensive income. Global Payments did not have any derivative instruments at February 28, 2002.
 
The Company follows Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 131 (“SFAS No. 131”), “Disclosure About Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information.” The Company’s chief operating decision making group currently operates one reportable segment—electronic transaction processing—therefore the majority of the disclosures required by SFAS No. 131 do not apply to the Company. The Company’s results of operations and its financial condition are not significantly reliant upon any single customer. Revenues from external customers from the Company’s service offerings are as follows:

NOTE 3—EARNINGS PER SHARE:
 
Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing reported earnings available to common shareholders by weighted average shares outstanding during the period. Earnings available to common shareholders are the same as reported net income for all periods presented. For periods prior to the Distribution Date, weighted average shares outstanding is computed by applying the distribution ratio of 0.8 of a share of the Company for each NDC share held to the historical NDC weighted average shares outstanding for the same periods presented.
 
Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing reported earnings available to common shareholders by weighted average shares outstanding during the period and the impact of securities that, if exercised, would have a dilutive effect on earnings per share. All options with an exercise price less than the average market share price for the period generally are assumed to have a dilutive effect on earnings per share. No additional shares were outstanding that could potentially dilute basic earnings per share that were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share. Diluted earnings per share is not presented for the period ending February 28, 2001, as Global Payments stock options did not exist prior to the Distribution Date, and public trading of Global Payments stock did not commence until February 1, 2001.
 
The following table sets forth the computation of the basic and diluted earnings per share for the three and nine months ended February 28, 2002.

NOTE 5 – BUSINESS ACQUISITIONS:
 
On October 1, 2001, the Company acquired National Bank of Canada’s merchant acquiring portfolio and formed a ten-year alliance for marketing merchant payment-related products and services to National Bank of Canada’s customers. This acquisition was completed to compliment our existing Canadian customer portfolio and broaden our presence in Canada.
 
In August 2001, Global Payments purchased the 7.5% minority interest owned by MasterCard International Corporation in Global Payment Systems LLC. The transaction was effective as of June 1, 2001.
 
The aggregate cash price paid for these acquisitions, and purchase price adjustments to acquisitions completed in the last twelve months, during the nine months ended February 28, 2002 consisted of $61.2 million, as follows:

In accordance with SFAS No. 142, adopted on June 1, 2001, the Company discontinued the amortization of goodwill and certain intangible assets that were determined to have an indefinite life. As of February 28, 2002 and May 31, 2001, intangible assets consisted of the following:

Global Payments has one reportable segment (see Note 2), but has two reporting units within merchant services. Merchant services include credit and debit card transaction processing, business-to-business purchase card transaction processing, check guarantee, check verification and recovery, and terminal management services. In one reporting unit, which we refer to as “direct” merchant services, we have a salaried and commissioned sales force and independent sales organizations, or ISOs, that sell our end-to-end services directly to merchants. In the other reporting unit, which we refer to as “indirect” merchant services, we provide products and services primarily to financial institutions that in turn resell to their merchants. The following table discloses the changes in the carrying amount of goodwill by reporting unit for the period ended February 28, 2002:

In July 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets”. Global Payments adopted this new standard in the first quarter of fiscal 2002. SFAS 142 requires that goodwill no longer be amortized but be reviewed for impairment on a regular basis. Global Payments completed the testing for impairment in goodwill during the second quarter ending November 30, 2001 using the expected present value of future cash flows. The Company determined that the fair value of the reporting units exceeds the carrying amount of the net assets, including goodwill of the respective reporting units. Therefore, no impairment charge to goodwill is required. The trademark has been reassessed as an indefinite life intangible asset. No other changes in amortization periods were required for other intangible assets.
 
The indefinite life trademark totals $24.6 million and is included in Other Intangible Assets in the Balance Sheets. The testing for impairment of this asset has not yet been completed by an independent valuation firm. It is anticipated that the final results of this valuation will be completed prior to May 31, 2002. If the carrying value of the trademark is determined to exceed its fair value, the impairment loss, if any, will be recognized as the effect of a change in accounting principle retroactive to the quarter ended August 31, 2001. Any impairment charge could have a material impact on net income for fiscal 2002.

NOTE 7 – TRANSACTIONS WITH NDC:
 
NDC charged the Company with corporate costs through the Distribution Date. During the three and nine month periods ended February 28, 2001, the Company was charged $1.1 million and $4.7 million. The allocations were based on an estimate of the proportion of corporate expenses related to the Company, utilizing such factors as revenues, number of employees, number of transactions processed and other applicable factors.
 
The Company was also charged corporate interest expense through January 31, 2001 based on the corporate debt allocations of NDC to the Company at the Distribution Date. The Company utilized a rollback approach to allocate the portion of the NDC consolidated group’s debt and interest expense for all historical periods presented. This treatment records the debt allocation percentage for all historical periods presented. Interest expense recorded by the Company related to this debt was $1.0 million and $3.1 million for the three and nine months ended February 28, 2001 and is included in interest and other expense. NDC did not charge any incremental interest expense to the Company after the Distribution Date.
 
In conjunction with the Distribution, the Company and NDC entered into various agreements that address the allocation of assets and liabilities between them and define their relationship after the Distribution, including the Distribution Agreement, the Tax Sharing and Indemnification Agreement, the Employee Benefits Agreement, the Lease Agreement for Office Headquarters, the Intercompany Systems/Network Services Agreement, the Batch Processing Agreement and the Transition Support Agreement. The Company paid NDC $2.1 million and $6.4 million in the three and nine months ended February 28, 2002 for transitional services.
 
NOTE 8 – RESTRUCTURING AND OTHER:
 
During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2001, the Company completed plans for the consolidation of six locations into three, including associated management and staff reductions. Charges included both cash and non-cash amounts for closed or planned closings of facilities and severance and related costs.
 
The cash charges relating to facilities represent locations that have closed by September 2001. Cash charges included future minimum lease and operating payments, commencing on the planned exit timing, for all noncancelable leases under remaining terms of the locations identified, net of current and estimated future sublease income. The cash charges also included facility exit costs. Normal lease payments and operating costs were charged to operating expenses prior to actually vacating the specific facilities.

10

 
The severance and related costs arose from the Company’s actions to reduce personnel in areas of redundant operations and activities. These charges reflect specifically identified employees who were informed and terminated from employment in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2001.
 
Total charges relating to the consolidation were $4.9 million. Of this total, approximately $2.7 million were cash items that were accrued at the time the charges were incurred. As of February 28, 2002, $0.9 million of the cash portion of the restructuring charges remains accrued in the current liabilities section of the balance sheet as follows:

NOTE 9 – SUPPLEMENTAL CASH FLOW INFORMATION:
 
Historically, through the Distribution Date, the Company’s cash flow had been calculated with and included in the NDC consolidated group’s Supplemental Cash Flows. The Company’s payments for income taxes have been calculated on the Company’s separate income and reflect federal and state income tax payment allocations as if the Company had been operating on a stand-alone basis. The Company has utilized a rollback approach to allocate the portion of the consolidated group’s interest payments for all historical periods presented (Note 7).
 
Supplemental cash flow disclosures for the three and nine month periods ended February 28, 2002 and 2001 are as follows:
