Merchant and Customer Benefits

Next-Gen Payments Intelligence in Action: Customer Results $100,000 worth of additional accepted transactions The use of positive profiling during peak season reduced decline rates by 59%. Applying this feature results in $100,000 worth of additional accepted transactions each month. Increased revenue by $225,000 per week Applying the positive profiling capability to its five top rules, the decline rate for this customer reduced by almost 50% – increasing revenue by $225,000 per week.

Next-Gen Payments Intelligence in Action: Customer Results $450,000 more per month in transactions Using the Global Time on File Profile indicator, this customer was able to accept $450,000 more per month in transactions. $2.8 million in additional transaction value Applying positive profiling, this customer’s top six rules resulted in 4,427 fewer challenged transactions, of which 3,264 would have been declined. Accepting these declined transactions would have yielded $2.8 million in additional transaction value.

Next-Gen Payments Intelligence in Action: Customer Results $13.7 million being allowed to flow through without friction The use of four positive profiling rules identified that 25% of this customer’s volume was proven to be SAFE transactions (accuracy rate of 99.66%). This equated to $13.7 million being allowed to flow through without friction. 40% of cases were proven to be fraud Using the Global Card Spend profile, ACI’s risk team found that 88% of this merchant's good customers’ consolidated spend was $200 or under, with the remainder proving to be fraud in 40% of cases.

appendix

To supplement our financial results presented on a GAAP basis, we use the non-GAAP measures indicated in the tables, which exclude significant transaction-related expenses, as well as other significant non-cash expenses such as depreciation, amortization, and non-cash compensation, that we believe are helpful in understanding our past financial performance and our future results. The presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to our GAAP results and are not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP. Management generally compensates for limitations in the use of non-GAAP financial measures by relying on comparable GAAP financial measures and providing investors with a reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures only in addition to and in conjunction with results presented in accordance with GAAP. We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures reflect an additional way to view aspects of our operations that, when viewed with our GAAP results, provide a more complete understanding of factors and trends affecting our business. Certain non-GAAP measures include: Adjusted EBITDA: net income (loss) plus income tax expense (benefit), net interest income (expense), net other income (expense), depreciation, amortization, and non-cash compensation, as well as significant transaction-related expenses. Adjusted EBITDA should be considered in addition to, rather than as a substitute for, net income (loss). Non-GAAP Financial Measures
