Global Payments Reports Third Quarter Earnings for Fiscal 2013
Reaffirms Fiscal 2013 Annual Revenue and Cash Earnings Expectations

ATLANTA, April 2, 2013 -- Global Payments Inc. (NYSE: GPN), a leading, worldwide provider of electronic transaction processing solutions, today announced results for its fiscal third quarter ended February 28, 2013.

Third Quarter 2013 Summary
Revenue grew 8% to $578.7 million compared to $533.5 million in the third quarter of 2012.
Cash diluted earnings per share1 grew 5% to $0.87 compared to $0.83 in the third quarter of 2012.
GAAP diluted earnings per share were $0.75, compared to $0.73 in the third quarter of 2012.

Chairman and CEO Paul R. Garcia said, “We are pleased with the progress we have made on our strategic initiatives, and we are on track to achieve our full-year earnings expectations in 2013. These initiatives include focusing on expanding distribution channels through our partner of choice strategy, leveraging our technology infrastructure and driving innovation. We recently launched a number of innovative mobility and loyalty products to our worldwide merchants, and we are fully focused on expanding our unparalleled global footprint.”

Data Remediation Expense Update
During the third quarter, the company was returned to the list of PCI DSS compliant service providers and received reports on compliance covering all of the systems that process, store, transmit or otherwise utilize card data. The company expects that net full-year 2013 expenses for the data intrusion will total approximately $20 million. Based on the assumption that the company will receive an additional $10 million of insurance proceeds in fiscal 2014, the company estimates that the total cost for the processing system intrusion since inception will be approximately $95 million.
David Mangum, Senior Executive Vice President and CFO, stated, “Now that the remediation work is behind us, we can turn our undivided attention to driving the business forward. We are grateful to our customers, partners and the card networks for their support as well as the significant efforts of our team.”

2013 Outlook
For the full-year of fiscal 2013, the company continues to expect annual revenue of $2,360 million to $2,400 million, or 7% to 9% growth over fiscal 2012 and expected diluted earnings per share on a cash basis continue to be in a range of $3.64 to $3.71, or growth of 3% to 5% over fiscal 2012.
Annual fiscal 2013 GAAP diluted earnings per share have been revised to include the estimated impact of net intrusion remediation costs of $0.17 per share and are now expected to be in a range of $2.87 to $2.94.
For reconciliation of expected full-year fiscal 2013 Cash Earnings to GAAP and constant currency, see schedule 9.

1 Represents adjustments to cost of service to exclude acquisition intangible amortization expense and the related income tax benefit.

We supplemented our reporting of net income and the related earnings per share information determined in accordance with GAAP by reporting net income and the related earnings per share for the three months ended February 28, 2013 and February 29, 2012 on a "cash earnings" basis in this earnings release as a measure to help evaluate performance. We calculated February 28, 2013 net income and earnings per share on a cash basis by excluding credits related to the processing system intrusion and acquisition intangible amortization. We calculated February 29, 2012 net income and earnings per share on a cash basis by excluding acquisition intangible amortization from our results. We exclude these items in order to more clearly focus on the factors we believe are pertinent to the daily management of our operations. Our net income and earnings per share reported on a cash earnings basis should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for, net income and earnings per share determined in accordance with GAAP. Our measures of net income and earnings per share on a cash earnings basis reflect management's judgment of particular items, and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

1 Represents adjustments to cost of service to exclude acquisition intangible amortization expense and the related income tax benefit.

2 Represents HSBC's share of GPAP dividends declared and one-time charges primarily related to employee termination benefits.

We supplemented our reporting of net income and the related earnings per share information determined in accordance with GAAP by reporting net income and the related earnings per share for the nine months ended February 28, 2013 and February 29, 2012 on a "cash earnings" basis in this earnings release as a measure to help evaluate performance. We calculated February 28, 2013 net income and earnings per share on a cash basis by excluding costs related to the processing system intrusion, acquisition intangible amortization, the dividend paid to HSBC that was classified as interest expense, and one-time charges related to employee termination benefits. We also adjusted the net income attributable to noncontrolling interests to include HSBC's share of August 2012 through November 2012 GPAP net income. We calculated February 29, 2012 net income and earnings per share on a cash basis by excluding acquisition intangible amortization from our results. We exclude these charges in order to more clearly focus on the factors we believe are pertinent to the daily management of our operations. Our net income and earnings per share reported on a cash earnings basis should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for, net income and earnings per share determined in accordance with GAAP.

We supplement our fiscal 2013 outlook of total revenues and earnings per share information determined in accordance with GAAP by reporting revenues and earnings per share on a “constant currency” basis in this earnings release as a measure to help evaluate performance.  We calculated revenues and earnings per share on a constant currency basis by converting our fiscal 2013 expected revenues and expenses at fiscal 2012 exchange rates.  We exclude the impact of exchange rate fluctuations in order to more clearly focus on the factors we believe are pertinent to the daily management of our operations, and our management uses constant currency measures to evaluate the impact of operational business decisions.  Our revenues and earnings per share reported on a constant currency basis should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for, revenues and earnings per share determined in accordance with GAAP. Our measures of revenues and earnings per share on a constant currency basis reflect management's judgment of particular items, and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.
1 Reflects current period and forecasted results on a pro forma basis as if foreign currency rates did not change from the comparable prior year period.
2 Reflects the impact of actual and forecasted changes in foreign currency rates from the comparable prior year period.
3 Fiscal 2013 reflects $0.60 of acquisition-related intangibles and non-recurring items and $0.17 of processing system intrusion costs. Acquisition-related intangibles accounted and non-recurring items accounted for $0.48 in fiscal 2012 and processing intrusion costs $0.68.
