Global Payments Reports Third Quarter Earnings

ATLANTA, April 2, 2012 — Global Payments Inc. (NYSE: GPN) today announced results for its fiscal third quarter ended February 29, 2012. For the third quarter, revenues grew 17% to $533.5 million compared to $456.4 million in the prior fiscal year. Cash earnings per share grew 17% to $0.83 compared to $0.71 in the prior year (See Schedule 2 for Cash Earnings). On a GAAP basis, the company reported fiscal 2012 third quarter diluted earnings per share growth of 24% to $0.73 compared to $0.59 in the prior year (See Schedule 1 for GAAP Consolidated Statements of Income).

Chairman and CEO Paul R. Garcia stated, “We delivered solid third quarter results driven by continued steady performances in our US and International businesses.”

David E. Mangum, Senior Executive Vice President and CFO, stated, “We continue to expect our annual revenue for fiscal 2012 to be $2,150 million to $2,200 million, or 16% to 18% growth over fiscal 2011 and fiscal 2012 diluted earnings per share on a cash basis to be a range of $3.50 to $3.58, reflecting 14% to 16% growth over fiscal 2011. We now expect GAAP diluted earnings per share of $3.10 to $3.18 representing 19% to 22% growth over the prior year and reflecting some planned cost saving initiatives for our fourth quarter.” (See Schedule 9 for Outlook Summary.)

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

²	Reflects expenses of start-up costs related to our new Global Service Center in Manila, Philippines and employee termination and relocation benefits and the related income tax benefits.

We supplemented our reporting of income from continuing operations and the related earnings per share information determined in accordance with GAAP by reporting income from continuing operations and the related earnings per share for the three months ended February 29, 2012 and February 28, 2011 on a “cash earnings” basis in this earnings release as a measure to help evaluate performance. We calculated February 29, 2012 income from continuing operations and earnings per share on a cash basis by excluding acquisition intangible amortization from our results. We calculated February 28, 2011 income from continuing operations and earnings per share on a cash basis by excluding charges related to employee termination and relocation benefits, certain one-time costs related to our Global Service Center, and 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 income from continuing operations and earnings per share reported on a cash earnings basis should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for, income from continuing operations and earnings per share determined in accordance with GAAP. Our measures of income from continuing operations 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.
