Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements

1. Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies

Business, Consolidation and Presentation

Priority Technology Holdings, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries are referred to herein collectively as "Priority," "PRTH," the "Company," "we," "our" or "us," unless the context requires otherwise. Priority is a provider of merchant acquiring, integrated payment software, money transmission services and commercial payments solutions.

The Company operates on a calendar year ending each December 31 and on four calendar quarters ending on March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31 of each year. Results of operations reported for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results for the entire year.

The accompanying Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of the Company and its majority-owned subsidiaries. All material intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. These Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP for interim financial information pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC. The Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2022 was derived from the audited financial statements included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 but does not include all disclosures required by GAAP for annual financial statements.

NCI represents the equity interest in certain consolidated entities in which the Company owns less than 100% of the profit interests. Changes in the Company's ownership interest while the Company retains its controlling interest are accounted for as equity transactions. As of June 30, 2023, there was no income or loss attributable to NCI in accordance with the applicable operating agreements.

In the opinion of the Company's management, all known adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements for interim periods have been made. These adjustments consist of normal recurring accruals and estimates that affect the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities. These Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reported period. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates.

Accounts Receivable, net

Accounts receivables include dues from the Company's sponsor banks (for revenues earned, net of related interchange and processing fees, and do not bear interest), agents, merchants and other customers, stated net of allowance for current expected credit losses for any uncollectible amounts.

Foreign Currency

The Company's reporting currency is the U.S. dollar. The functional currency of the Indian subsidiary of the Company is Indian Rupee (i.e. local currency of Republic of India). Accordingly, assets and liabilities denominated in a foreign currency are translated into U.S. dollars at the current exchange rate on the last day of the reporting period. Revenues and expenses are translated using the average exchange rate in effect during the reporting period. Translation adjustments are reported as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss).

Recently Adopted Accounting Standards

Credit Losses

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments ("ASU 2016-13"). This new guidance changes how entities account for credit impairment for trade and other receivables, as well as for certain financial assets and other instruments. ASU 2016-13 replaces the current "incurred loss" model with an "expected loss" model. Under the "incurred loss" model, a loss (or allowance) is recognized only when an event has occurred (such as a payment delinquency) that causes the entity to believe that a loss is probable (i.e., that it has been "incurred"). Under the "expected loss" model, a loss (or allowance) is recognized upon initial recognition of the asset that reflects all future events that leads to a loss being realized, regardless of whether it is probable that the future event will occur. The Company adopted ASU 2016-13 effective January 1, 2023 using the modified-retrospective approach. The implementation of ASU 2016-13 did not have a material impact on the Company's Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements. Additionally, the Company modified its accounting policy to conform with the requirements of the adoption of this standard.

Reference Rate Reform

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting, which provides temporary optional expedients and exceptions to the GAAP guidance on contract modifications and hedge accounting to ease the financial reporting burdens of the expected market transition from the LIBOR and other interbank offered rates to alternative reference rates, such as the SOFR. An entity that makes this election would not have to remeasure the contract at the modification date or reassess a previous accounting determination. In January 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-01, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848), Scope ASU 2021-01, which clarifies that certain optional expedients and exceptions in Topic 848 for contract modifications and hedge accounting apply to derivatives that are affected by the discounting transition. The Company adopted the optional expedients of Topic 848 on June 30, 2023 upon the amendments of its Credit Agreement (see Note 8. Debt Obligations) and the Certificate of Designation (see Note 9. Redeemable Senior Preferred Stock and Warrants), which transitioned the Company's reference rates from LIBOR to SOFR. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the Company's Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements.

2. Acquisitions

Ovvi Acquisition

On November 18, 2022, the Company completed its acquisition of certain assets and assumption of a certain liability of Ovvi, LLC, under an asset purchase agreement through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Priority Ovvi, LLC ("Ovvi"). The acquisition was accounted for as a business combination using the acquisition method of accounting. Prior to this acquisition, the business operated as a SaaS proprietary platform for the restaurant, hospitality and retail industries by providing complete all-in-one point of sale software and hardware systems, comprehensive ancillary services including fraud detection and mitigation, and processing services for various types of cards including credit cards, debit cards, private label cards and prepaid cards. This business is reported within the Company's SMB Payments reportable segment. Transaction costs were not material and were expensed. The non-voting incentive shares issued to the seller will be evaluated at each reporting period to determine whether or not profit or loss should be allocated based on the subsidiary's operating agreement. The preliminary purchase price allocation is set forth in the table below and is expected to be finalized as soon as practicable, but no later than one year from the acquisition date.

Table of Contents

Deferred revenues were not material for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022.

Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities

Material contract assets and liabilities are presented net at the individual contract level in the Unaudited Consolidated Balance Sheets and are classified as current or noncurrent based on the nature of the underlying contractual rights and obligations.

Contract liabilities were $0.5 million and $0.2 million as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. Substantially all of these balances are recognized as revenue within 12 months.

Net contract assets were not material for any period presented.

Impairment losses recognized on receivables or contract assets arising from the Company's contracts with customers were not material for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and June 30, 2022.

4. Settlement Assets and Customer/Subscriber Account Balances and Related Obligations

SMB Payments Segment

In the Company's SMB Payments reportable segment, funds settlement refers to the process of transferring funds for sales and credits between card issuers and merchants. The standards of the card networks require possession of funds during the settlement process by a member bank which controls the clearing transactions. Since settlement funds are required to be in the possession of a member bank until the merchant is funded, these funds are not assets of the Company and the associated obligations are not liabilities of the Company. Therefore, neither is recognized in the Company's Unaudited Consolidated Balance Sheets. Member banks held merchant funds of $97.2 million and $110.3 million at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.

Exception items that become the liability of the Company are recorded as merchant losses, a component of cost of revenue in the Company's Unaudited Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Loss. Exception items that the Company is still attempting to collect from the merchants through the funds settlement process or merchant reserves are recognized as settlement assets and customer/subscriber account balances in the Company's Unaudited Consolidated Balance Sheets, with an offsetting reserve for those amounts the Company estimates it will not be able to recover. Expenses for merchant losses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 were $1.1 million and $2.1 million, respectively. Expenses for merchant losses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 were $1.0 million and $2.1 million, respectively.

B2B Payments Segment

In the Company's B2B Payments segment, the Company earns revenues by processing transactions for FIs and other business customers. Customers transfer funds to the Company, which are held in either company-owned bank accounts controlled by the Company or bank-owned FBO accounts controlled by the banks, until such time that the transactions are settled with the customer payees. Amounts due to customer payees that are held by the Company in company-owned bank accounts are included in restricted cash. Amounts due to customer payees that are held in bank-owned FBO accounts are not assets of the Company, and the associated obligations are not liabilities of the Company. Therefore, neither is recognized in the Company's Unaudited Consolidated Balance Sheets. Bank-owned FBO accounts held funds of $58.0 million and $42.7 million at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. Company-owned bank accounts held $2.0 million and $1.8 million at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively, which are included in restricted cash and settlement and customer/subscriber account obligations in the Company's Unaudited Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Enterprise Payments Segment

In the Company's Enterprise Payments segment revenue is derived primarily from enrollment fees, monthly subscription fees and transaction-based fees from licensed money transmission services. As part of its licensed money transmission services, the Company accepts deposits from consumers and subscribers which are held in bank accounts maintained by the Company on behalf of consumers and subscribers. After accepting deposits, the Company is allowed to invest available balances in these accounts in certain permitted investments, and the return on such investments contributes to the Company's net cash inflows.

Table of Contents

These balances are payable on demand. As such, the Company recorded these balances and related obligations as current assets and current liabilities. The nature of these balances are cash and cash equivalents, but they are not available for day-to-day operations of the Company. Therefore, the Company has classified these balances as settlement assets and customer/subscriber account balances and the related obligations as settlement and customer/subscriber account obligations in the Company's Unaudited Consolidated Balance Sheets.

In certain states, the Company accepts deposits under agency arrangement with member banks wherein accepted deposits remain under the control of the member banks. Therefore, the Company does not record assets for the deposits accepted and liabilities for the associated obligation. Agency owned accounts held $10.1 million and $6.1 million at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.

The Company's consolidated settlement assets and customer/subscriber account balances and settlement and customer/subscriber account obligations were as follows:

10. Income Taxes

The effective rates differed from the statutory rate of 21.0% primarily due to an increase in the valuation allowance against certain business interest carryover deferred tax assets.

Valuation Allowance for Deferred Income Tax Assets

The Company considers all available positive and negative evidence to determine whether sufficient taxable income will be generated in the future to permit realization of the existing deferred tax assets. In accordance with the provisions of ASC 740, Income Taxes, the Company is required to provide a valuation allowance against deferred income tax assets when it is "more likely than not" that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.

Based on management's assessment, as of June 30, 2023, the Company continues to record a full valuation allowance against non-deductible interest expense. The Company will continue to evaluate the realizability of the net deferred tax asset on a quarterly basis and, as a result, the valuation allowance may change in future periods.

Legal Proceedings

The Company is involved in certain legal proceedings and claims which arise in the ordinary course of business. In the opinion of the Company and based on consultations with internal and external counsel, the results of any of these matters, individually and in the aggregate, are not expected to have a material effect on the Company's results of operations, financial condition or cash flows. As more information becomes available, and the Company determines that an unfavorable outcome is probable on a claim and that the amount of probable loss that the Company will incur on that claim is reasonably estimable, the Company will record an accrued expense for the claim in question. If and when the Company records such an accrual, it could be material and could adversely impact the Company's results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.

Concentration of Risks

The Company's revenue is substantially derived from processing Visa and Mastercard bankcard transactions. Because the Company is not a member bank, in order to process these bankcard transactions, the Company maintains sponsorship agreements with member banks which require, among other things, that the Company abide by the by-laws and regulations of the card associations.

The Company's settlement assets and customer /subscriber account balances of $708.6 million includes cash and cash equivalents of $692.6 million related to customer account balances which are maintained in FDIC insured accounts with certain FIs.

A majority of the Company's cash and restricted cash is held in certain FIs, substantially all of which is in excess of FDIC limits. The Company does not believe it is exposed to any significant credit risk from these transactions.

14. Fair Value

Fair Value Measurements

Contingent consideration related to the Company's business combinations is estimated based on the present value of a weighted payout probability at the measurement date, which falls within Level 3 on the fair value hierarchy. The current portion of contingent consideration is included in accounts payable and accrued expenses on the Company's Unaudited Consolidated Balance Sheets and the noncurrent portion of contingent consideration is included in other noncurrent liabilities on the Company's Unaudited Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Table of Contents

Liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis consisted of the following:


(in thousands)	Fair Value Hierarchy	June 30, 2023		December 31, 2022
Contingent consideration, current portion	Level 3	$	9,413	$	6,079
Contingent consideration, noncurrent portion	Level 3	2,000		2,000
Total contingent consideration		$	11,413	$	8,079

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, there were no transfers into, out of, or between levels of the fair value hierarchy.

Fair Value Disclosures

Notes Receivable

Notes receivable are carried at amortized cost. Substantially all of the Company's notes receivable are secured, and the Company provides for allowances when it believes that certain notes receivable may not be collectible. The carrying value of the Company's notes receivable, net approximates fair value and was approximately $5.5 million and $4.7 million at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. On the fair value hierarchy, Level 3 inputs are used to estimate the fair value of these notes receivable.

Debt Obligations

Outstanding debt obligations (see Note 8. Debt Obligations) are reflected in the Company's Unaudited Consolidated Balance Sheets at carrying value since the Company did not elect to remeasure debt obligations to fair value at the end of each reporting period.

The fair value of the term facility was estimated to be $604.1 million and $606.1 million at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively, and was estimated using binding and non-binding quoted prices in an active secondary market, which considers the credit risk and market related conditions, and is within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.

The carrying values of the other long-term debt obligations approximate fair value due to mechanisms in the credit agreements that adjust the applicable interest rates and the lack of a market for these debt obligations.

15. Segment Information

The Company has three reportable segments:

•SMB Payments – provides full-service acquiring and payment-enabled solutions for B2C transactions, leveraging the Company's proprietary software platform, distributed through ISOs, direct sales and vertically focused ISV channels.

•B2B Payments – provides AP automation solutions to corporations, software partners and FIs.

•Enterprise Payments – provides embedded payment and banking solutions to enterprise customers that modernize legacy platforms and accelerate modern software partners looking to monetize payments.

Results of Operations

This section includes certain components of our results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2022. We have derived this data, except the key indicators, from our Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and our Audited Consolidated Financial Statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.

This overall increase was mainly driven by increases in merchant card fee rates, offset by merchant bankcard volume decreases in our SMB Payments segment, an increase in new enrollments and higher interest income in our Enterprise Payments segment. These increases were partially offset by a decrease in revenue in B2B Payments segment due to wind down of certain managed services programs.

For the six months ended June 30, 2023, our consolidated revenue of $367.3 million increased by $47.6 million, or 14.9%, from $319.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022. The overall increase was driven by increases in merchant card fee rates, increased merchant bankcard volume, offset by a decrease in certain fee based revenue in our SMB Payments segment and an increase in new enrollments and higher interest income in our Enterprise Payments segment. These increases were partially offset by a decrease in revenue in B2B Payments segment due to wind down of certain managed services programs.

We compute our interim period income tax expense or benefit by using a forecasted EAETR and adjust for any discrete items arising during the interim period and any changes in our projected full-year business interest expense and taxable income. The

Table of Contents

EAETR for 2023 is 174.5% and includes the income tax provision on pre-tax income and a tax provision related to establishment of a valuation allowance for deferred income tax on the future portion of the Section 163(j) limitation created by additional 2023 interest expense. The effective tax rate for 2023 changed primarily due to an increase in the valuation allowance against certain business interest carryover deferred tax assets.

Our consolidated effective income tax rates differ from the statutory rate due to timing and permanent differences between amounts calculated under accounting principles GAAP and the U.S. tax code. The consolidated effective income tax rate for 2023 may not be indicative of our effective tax rate for future periods.

On August 16, 2022, the U.S. government enacted the Inflation Reduction Act into law. The IRA, among other provisions, implements a 15% corporate alternative minimum tax based on global adjusted financial statement income and a 1% excise tax on share repurchases, which shall take effect in tax years beginning after December 31, 2022. We do not expect the enactment of the IRA will have a material effect on our reported results, cash flows, or financial position. If applicable, we expect to reflect the excise tax within equity as part of the repurchase price of common stock.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP for interim periods, which often require the judgment of management in the selection and application of certain accounting principles and methods. Our critical accounting policies and estimates are discussed in "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022. There have been no material changes to these critical accounting policies and estimates as of June 30, 2023.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Liquidity and capital resource management is a process focused on providing the funding we need to meet our short-term and long-term cash and working capital needs. We have used our funding sources to build our merchant portfolio, for technology solutions and to make acquisitions with the expectation that such investments will generate cash flows sufficient to cover our working capital and other anticipated needs, including our acquisition strategy. We anticipate that cash on hand, funds generated from operations and available borrowings under our revolving credit facility are sufficient to meet our working capital requirements for at least the next 12 months.

During the second quarter of 2022, PRTH's Board of Directors authorized the Company to implement a general share repurchase program under which the Company may purchase up to 2.0 million shares of its outstanding Common Stock for a total of up to $10.0 million. Under the terms of this plan, the Company may purchase shares through open market purchases, unsolicited or solicited privately negotiated transactions, or in another manner so long as it complies with applicable rules and regulations. The Company had repurchased shares of $5.7 million during the year ended December 31, 2022 and has not repurchased any shares under the share repurchase program for the six months ended June 30, 2023.

Our principal uses of cash are to fund business operations and administrative costs, and to service our debt.

Our working capital, defined as current assets less current liabilities, was $3.4 million at June 30, 2023 and $22.5 million at June 30, 2022. As of June 30, 2023, we had cash totaling $17.6 million compared to $18.5 million at June 30, 2022. These cash balances do not include restricted cash of $12.4 million and $10.6 million at June 30, 2023 and June 30, 2022, respectively, which reflects cash accounts holding customer settlement funds and cash reserves for potential losses. The current portion of long-term debt included in current liabilities was $6.2 million at June 30, 2023 and June 30, 2022. At June 30, 2023, we had availability of approximately $49.5 million under our revolving credit facility.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

We are involved in certain legal proceedings and claims, which arise in the ordinary course of business. In the opinion of the Company, based on consultations with internal and external counsel, the results of any of these ordinary course matters, individually and in the aggregate, are not expected to have a material effect on our results of operations, financial condition, or cash flows. As more information becomes available and we determine that an unfavorable outcome is probable on a claim and that the amount of probable loss that we will incur on that claim is reasonably estimable, we will record an accrued expense for the claim in question. If and when we record such an accrual, it could be material and could adversely impact our results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

In addition to the other information set forth in this report, you should carefully consider the factors discussed in our Annual Report under Part I, Item 1A "Risk Factors" because these risk factors may affect our operations and financial results. The risks described in the Annual Report are not the only risks we face.
