Reporting entity

Nuvei Corporation (“Nuvei” or the “Company”) is a global provider of payment technology solutions to merchants and partners in North America, Europe, Asia Pacific and Latin America and is domiciled in Canada with its registered office located at 1100 René-Lévesque Blvd., 9th floor, Montreal, Quebec, Canada. Nuvei is the ultimate parent of the group and was incorporated on September 1, 2017 under the Canada Business Corporations Act (“CBCA”)

The Company’s shares are listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange (“TSX”) under the symbols “NVEI” and “NVEI.U”.

 

2

Basis of preparation and consolidation

These condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) applicable to the preparation of interim financial statements, including International Accounting Standard (“IAS”) 34, Interim Financial Reporting, as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”). Certain information and disclosures have been omitted or condensed. The accounting policies and methods of computation described in the annual audited consolidated financial statements were applied consistently in the preparation of these condensed interim consolidated financial statements. Accordingly, these condensed interim consolidated financial statements should be read together with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2020.

Certain comparative figures related to foreign currency exchange gains or losses have been reclassified to conform with the presentation for the current year. Accordingly, for the three months ended March 31, 2020, a foreign currency exchange loss of $46,510 included in net finance costs and a foreign exchange gain of $791 included in Selling, general and administrative expenses (“SG&A”) were reclassified to loss (gain) on foreign currency exchange in the consolidated statement of profit or loss. These reclassifications had no impact on net income or net income per share. The Company believes this will provide more relevant information on foreign currency exchange and improve comparability of SG&A expenses and net finance costs in the consolidated statement of profit or loss.

These condensed interim consolidated financial statements were authorized for issue by the Company’s Board of Directors on May 7, 2021.

Operating segments

The Company has one reportable segment for the provision of payment technology solutions to merchants and partners in North America, Europe, Asia Pacific and Latin America.

Seasonality of interim operations

The operations of the Company can be seasonal, and the results of operations for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of operations for the full year or any future period.

Estimates, judgments and assumptions

The preparation of these condensed interim consolidated financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires management to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. The significant estimates, judgments and assumptions made by management are the same as those applied and described in the Company’s audited annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2020. Actual results may differ from these estimates, judgments and assumptions.

COVID-19 impact on judgments, assumptions and estimation uncertainties

The COVID-19 pandemic has disrupted the economy and put unprecedented strains on governments, health care systems, businesses and individuals around the world. The impact and duration of the COVID-19 pandemic are difficult to assess or predict.

The spread of COVID-19 has caused us to modify our business practices to help minimize the risk of the virus to our employees, our partners, our merchants and their customers, and the communities in which we do business. The negative impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business and the condensed interim consolidated financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2021 has been limited. The extent and continued impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business will depend on certain developments, including: the duration and spread of the outbreak; government responses to the pandemic; the impact on our customers and our sales cycles; the impact on customer, industry or employee events; and the effect on our partners, merchants and their customers, third-party service providers, customers and supply chains, all of which are uncertain and cannot be predicted. Accordingly, there is a higher level of uncertainty with respect to management’s judgments, assumptions and estimates.

 

3

Significant accounting policies and other changes in the current reporting period

New accounting standards and interpretations issued but not yet adopted

The IASB has issued new standards and amendments to existing standards which are applicable to the Company in future periods beginning on January 1, 2022 or later. There were no significant updates to the standards and interpretations issued but not yet adopted described in the annual audited consolidated financial statements.

Business acquisition

Base Commerce LLC

On January 1, 2021, the Company acquired substantially all of the assets of Base Commerce LLC (“Base”), a technology-driven payment processing company specializing in bank card and automated clearing house payment processing solutions. The purchase price for this acquisition totalled $96,678 including a cash amount of $6,186 placed in escrow in connection with adjustments to the purchase price or indemnification per the purchase agreement. The remaining amount consists of a contingent consideration of $7,004 whose payment is contingent upon meeting certain performance metrics. The following table summarizes the preliminary amounts of assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the acquisition date:

To finance the cash consideration noted above, on December 31, 2020, the Company also increased its credit facility by amending its credit agreement to add a term loan of $100,000.

Goodwill arising from this acquisition mainly consists of assembled workforce and expected synergies, which were not recorded separately since they did not meet the recognition criteria for identifiable intangible assets.

Net income (loss) per share

Previous to the Initial Public Offering (“IPO”) on September 22, 2020, the Company had three categories of potential dilutive securities: convertible liability-classified shares, unsecured convertible debentures due to shareholders and stock options. Since the IPO, stock options and Performance Share Units (“PSUs”) are considered to be potentially dilutive.

Diluted net income (loss) per share excludes all dilutive potential shares if their effect is anti-dilutive. For the three months ended March 31, 2021, anti-dilutive stock options were excluded from the calculation of diluted net income per share. As a result of net loss incurred for the three months ended March 31, 2020, the potential dilutive securities have been excluded from the calculation of diluted loss per share because including them would be anti-dilutive.

Determination of fair values

Certain of the Company’s accounting policies and disclosures require the determination of fair value for both financial and non-financial assets and liabilities. Fair values have been determined for measurement and/or disclosure purposes using the following methods.

Financial assets and financial liabilities

In establishing fair value, the Company uses a fair value hierarchy based on levels as defined below:

 

   

Level 1: defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets.

 

   

Level 2: defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable.

 

   

Level 3: defined as inputs that are based on little or no observable market data, therefore requiring entities to develop their own assumptions.

The Company has determined that the carrying amounts of its current financial assets and financial liabilities approximate their fair value given the short-term nature of these instruments.

The fair value of the variable interest rate non-current liabilities approximates the carrying amount as the liabilities bear interest at a rate that varies according to the market rate.

Below are the assumptions and valuation methods used in the level 3 fair value measurements:

 

   

the fair value of the advances to a third party independent sales organization was determined by calculating the present value of the future estimated cash flows over the term of the agreements. There has been no change to the assumptions used as at December 31, 2020.

 

   

the fair value assumptions for the LPP put option liability is determined using the Black-Scholes method; the main assumption is the fair value of the units in LPP which is determined to be $9,846 as at March 31, 2021; and

 

   

the fair value of Base contingent consideration is determined using the calculation in the purchase agreement. The main assumption is the forecast of expected future cashflows.
