|
1.
|
Once the consumer is ready to make a purchase, he or she presents their card for payment;
|
2.
|
The card is swiped in the Point-of-Sale (POS) device at the business location, which captures the account information contained on the card's magnetic stripe or EMV-compliant chip;
|
•
|
In a mobile commerce transaction facilitated by a mobile wallet, such as Apple Pay, the appropriate card details are stored virtually on an application on the phone and transmitted to the POS device through a chip equipped with near-field communication (NFC) technology;
|
•
|
In an eCommerce transaction, the POS device is replaced by a virtual terminal application and the consumer types the card number into the check-out page of the online storefront. In some circumstances, an online wallet, such as PayPal, may be used to transmit the appropriate payment credentials;
|
3.
|
The customer's card details are transmitted from the POS to the merchant acquirer, or the merchant acquirer's processor, via an internet connection or a phone line;
|
•
|
In an eCommerce transaction, the information is encrypted and then transmitted to the merchant acquirer, or merchant acquirer's processor, via an online gateway;
|
4.
|
The merchant acquirer, or the merchant acquirer's processor, identifies the appropriate payment network affiliated with the card, such as Visa, MasterCard, or
STAR
, and forwards the card details to the appropriate network;
|
5.
|
The payment network receives the request for payment authorization, identifies the appropriate card issuing bank, and routes the transaction to the bank or its issuer processor;
|
6.
|
The card issuing bank, or its issuer processor, receives the request and then executes a series of inquiries into its account systems to assess the potential risk of fraud for the transaction, establish that the account is in good standing, and verify that the cardholder has sufficient credit or adequate funds to cover the amount of the transaction;
|
7.
|
The card issuing bank, or its issuer processor, approves or declines the transaction and sends back the response to the payment network. In this example the transaction is approved;
|
8.
|
The payment network receives the approval and forwards the authorization to the merchant acquirer, or merchant acquirer's processor; and
|
9.
|
The merchant acquirer, or merchant acquirer's processor, sends the authorization back to the POS device at the business location, which provides an approval confirmation and prints a receipt;
|
•
|
In a mobile commerce transaction, the approval confirmation and receipt may also be transmitted to the consumer's mobile wallet application or to the consumer via email;
|
•
|
In an eCommerce transaction, the authorization is sent to the online storefront, which communicates the approval to the consumer on the screen, and may provide the receipt for printing online or via email.
|
10.
|
Typically at the end of the day, the business submits a batch of all of its approved authorizations to the merchant acquirer, or the merchant acquirer's processor, through a function on its POS device;
|
•
|
In the case of an eCommerce business, the online storefront's gateway sends the batch to the merchant acquirer, or to the merchant acquirer's processor;
|
11.
|
The merchant acquirer, or the merchant acquirer's processor, receives the batch, notes the final amounts due for settlement, and routes the batch of approved authorizations to each applicable payment network;
|
12.
|
Each payment network sends the batch of approved authorizations to the applicable card issuing bank, or its issuer processor, which posts the transaction to the consumer's statement;
|
13.
|
Typically within 48 hours, the payment network calculates net settlement positions for the merchant acquirer and the card issuing bank, sends advisements to the merchant acquirer and card issuing bank, and submits a fund transfer order to a settlement bank; and
|
14.
|
The settlement bank facilitates the exchange of funds between the merchant acquirer and the card issuing bank; and the merchant acquirer transfers the funds to the business owner's account.

ITEM 1A.
|
RISK FACTORS
|
•
|
Declining economies, foreign currency fluctuations, and the pace of economic recovery can change consumer spending behaviors, such as cross-border travel patterns, on which a significant portion of our revenues are dependent.
|
•
|
Low levels of consumer and business confidence typically associated with recessionary environments and those markets experiencing relatively high unemployment, may cause decreased spending by cardholders.
|
•
|
Budgetary concerns in the United States and other countries around the world could affect the United States and other specific sovereign credit ratings, impact consumer confidence and spending, and increase the risks of operating in those countries.
|
•
|
Emerging market economies tend to be more volatile than the more established markets we serve in the United States and Europe, and adverse economic trends may be more pronounced in such emerging markets.
|
•
|
Financial institutions may restrict credit lines to cardholders or limit the issuance of new cards to mitigate cardholder defaults.
|
•
|
Uncertainty and volatility in the performance of our clients' businesses may make estimates of our revenues, rebates, incentives, and realization of prepaid assets less predictable.
|
•
|
Our clients may decrease spending for value-added services.
|
•
|
Government intervention, including the effect of laws, regulations, and /or government investments in our clients, may have potential negative effects on our business and our relationships with our clients or otherwise alter their strategic direction away from our products.
|
•
|
Rapid and significant changes in technology, resulting in new and innovative payment methods and programs that could place us at a competitive disadvantage and that could reduce the use of our products.
|
•
|
Competitors, clients, governments, and other industry participants may develop products that compete with or replace our value-added products and services.
|
•
|
Participants in the financial services, payments, and technology industries may merge, create joint ventures, or form other business combinations that may strengthen their existing business services or create new payment services that compete with our services.
|
•
|
New services and technologies that we develop may be impacted by industry-wide solutions and standards related to migration to EMV chip technology, tokenization, or other safety and security technologies.
|
•
|
managing geographically separated organizations, systems and facilities;
|
•
|
integrating personnel with diverse business backgrounds and organizational cultures;
|
•
|
complying with non-U.S. regulatory requirements;
|
•
|
fluctuations in currency exchange rates;
|
•
|
enforcement of intellectual property rights in some non-U.S. countries;
|
•
|
difficulty entering new non-U.S. markets due to, among other things, consumer acceptance and business knowledge of these new markets; and
|
•
|
general economic and political conditions.
|
•
|
increasing our vulnerability to adverse economic, industry or competitive developments;
|
•
|
requiring a substantial portion of cash flow from operations to be dedicated to the payment of principal and interest on our indebtedness, therefore reducing our ability to use cash flow to fund our operations, capital expenditures, and future business opportunities;
|
•
|
making it more difficult for us to satisfy our obligations with respect to our indebtedness, and any failure to comply with the obligations of our debt instruments, including restrictive covenants and borrowing conditions, could result in an event of default under the agreements governing such indebtedness;
|
•
|
restricting us from making strategic acquisitions or causing us to make non-strategic divestitures;
|
•
|
making it more difficult for us to obtain network sponsorship and clearing services from financial institutions or to obtain or retain other business with financial institutions;
|
•
|
limiting our ability to obtain additional financing for working capital, capital expenditures, product development, debt service requirements, acquisitions, and general corporate or other purposes; and
|
•
|
limiting our flexibility in planning for, or reacting to, changes in our business or market conditions and placing us at a competitive disadvantage compared to our competitors who are less highly leveraged and who, therefore, may be able to take advantage of opportunities that our leverage prevents us from exploiting.
|
•
|
incur additional indebtedness or issue certain preferred shares;
|
•
|
pay dividends on, repurchase, or make distributions in respect of, our capital stock or make other restricted payments;
|
•
|
make certain investments;
|
•
|
sell certain assets;
|
•
|
create liens;
|
•
|
consolidate, merge, sell, or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of our assets; and
|
•
|
enter into certain transactions with our affiliates.

|
•
|
The accounting policies of the operating segments are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies.
|
•
|
Intersegment revenues are eliminated in the segment that sells directly to the end market.
|
•
|
Segment revenue excludes reimbursable PIN debit fees, postage, and other revenue.
|
•
|
Adjusted EBITDA by segment includes equity earnings in affiliates and excludes depreciation and amortization expense, net income attributable to noncontrolling interests, other operating expenses, and other income (expense). Additionally, adjusted EBITDA is adjusted for items similar to certain of those used in calculating our compliance with debt covenants. The additional items that are adjusted to determine adjusted EBITDA are:
|
•
|
share-based compensation and related expense is excluded;
|
•
|
debt issuance costs are excluded and represent costs associated with issuing debt and modifying our debt structure; and
|
•
|
KKR related items including annual sponsor and other fees for management, consulting, financial, contract termination, and other advisory services are excluded.
|
•
|
For significant affiliates, segment revenue and adjusted EBITDA are reflected based on our proportionate share of the results of our investments in businesses accounted for under the equity method and consolidated subsidiaries with noncontrolling ownership interests. For other affiliates, we include equity earnings in affiliates, excluding amortization expense, in segment revenue and adjusted EBITDA. In addition, our Global Business Solutions segment measures reflect revenue-based commission payments to ISOs and sales channels, which are treated as an expense in the consolidated statements of operations, as contra revenue.
|
•
|
Corporate operations include corporate-wide governance functions such as our executive management team, aviation, tax, treasury, internal audit, corporate strategy, and certain accounting, human resources and legal costs related to supporting the corporate function. Costs incurred by Corporate that are attributable to a segment are allocated to the respective segment.
|
•
|
Certain measures exclude the estimated impact of foreign currency changes (constant currency). To present this information, monthly results during the periods presented for entities reporting in currencies other than U.S. dollars are translated into U.S. dollars at the average exchange rates in effect during the corresponding month of the prior fiscal year, rather than the actual average exchange rates in effect during the current fiscal year. Once translated, each month during the periods presented is added together to calculate the constant currency results for the periods presented.

Includes future principal and cash interest payments on long-term borrowings through scheduled maturity dates. Includes $4.6 billion of variable rate debt (including the impact of interest rate swaps). Includes $32 million in contractual call premiums to expire our 8.75% senior-secured-second lien notes due 2022 during January 2016. Borrowings and interest rate swaps are discussed in note 2 "Borrowings" and note 13 "Derivative Financial Instruments", respectively, to our consolidated financial statements in Part II, Item 8 of this Form 10-K. Interest payments for the variable rate debt and the associated interest rate swaps were calculated using interest rates as of December 31, 2015 .
|
(b)
|
Represents future payments on existing capital leases, including interest expense, through scheduled expiration dates.
|
(c)
|
Many of our contracts contain clauses that allow us to terminate the contract with notice, and with or without a termination penalty. Termination penalties are generally an amount less than the original obligation. Certain contracts also have an automatic renewal clause if we do not provide written notification of our intent to terminate the contract. Obligations under certain contracts are usage-based and are, therefore, estimated in the above amounts. Historically, we have not had any significant defaults of our contractual obligations or incurred significant penalties for termination of our contractual obligations.
|
(d)
|
Technology and telecommunications represents obligations related to hardware purchases, including purchases of ATMs and terminals, as well as software licenses, hardware and software maintenance and support, technical consulting services, and telecommunications services.
|
(e)
|
All other includes obligations related to materials, data, non-technical contract services, facility security, investor management fees, maintenance, and marketing promotions.
|
(f)
|
We evaluate the need to make contributions to our pension plans after considering the funded status of the pension plans, movements in the discount rates, performance of the plan assets and related tax consequences. Expected contributions to our pension plan have not been included in the table as such amounts are dependent upon the considerations discussed above, and may result in a wide range of amounts. See note 15 "Employee Benefit Plans" to our consolidated financial statements in Part II, Item 8 of this Form 10-K.
|
(g)
|
As of
December 31, 2015
, we had approximately $277 million of tax contingencies comprised of approximately $261 million reported in long-term income taxes payable in the “Other long-term liabilities” line of our consolidated balance sheets, including approximately $4 million of income tax liabilities for which The Western Union Company (Western Union) is required to indemnify us, and approximately $16 million recorded as an increase of our deferred tax liability. These amounts have been excluded from the table because the settlement period cannot be reasonably estimated. The timing of these payments will ultimately depend on the progress of tax examinations with the various tax authorities.

Global economic, political, and other conditions may adversely affect trends in consumer, business, and government spending, which may adversely impact the demand for our services and our revenue and profitability;
|
•
|
Our ability to anticipate and respond to changing industry trends and the needs and preferences of our clients and consumers may affect our competitiveness or demand for our products, which may adversely affect our operating results;
|
•
|
Substantial and increasingly intense competition worldwide in the financial services, payments, and technology industries may materially and adversely affect our overall business and operations;
|
•
|
Potential changes in the competitive landscape, including disintermediation from other participants in the payments value chain, could harm our business;
|
•
|
The market for our electronic commerce services is evolving and may not continue to develop or grow rapidly enough for us to maintain and increase our profitability;

•
|
If we are unable to maintain merchant relationships and alliances, our business may be adversely affected;
|
•
|
Failure to obtain new clients or renew client contracts on favorable terms could adversely affect results of operations and financial condition; and

•
|
The accounting policies of the operating segments are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies.
|
•
|
Intersegment revenues are eliminated in the segment that sells directly to the end market.
|
•
|
Segment revenue excludes reimbursable PIN debit fees, postage, and other revenue.
|
•
|
Adjusted EBITDA by segment includes equity earnings in affiliates and excludes depreciation and amortization expense, net income attributable to noncontrolling interests, other operating expenses, and other income (expense). Additionally, adjusted EBITDA is adjusted for items similar to certain of those used in calculating the Company's compliance with debt covenants. The additional items that are adjusted to determine adjusted EBITDA are:
|
•
|
share-based compensation and related expense is excluded;
|
•
|
debt issuance costs are excluded and represent costs associated with issuing debt and modifying the Company's debt structure; and
|
•
|
KKR related items including annual sponsor and other fees for management, consulting, financial, contract termination, and other advisory services are excluded.
|
•
|
For significant affiliates, segment revenue and adjusted EBITDA are reflected based on the Company's proportionate share of the results of its investments in businesses accounted for under the equity method and consolidated subsidiaries with noncontrolling ownership interests. For other affiliates, the Company includes equity earnings in affiliates, excluding amortization expense, in segment revenue and adjusted EBITDA. In addition, the Company's segment measures reflect revenue-based commission payments to Independent Sales Organizations and sales channels, which are treated as an expense in the consolidated statements of operations, as contra revenue.
|
•
|
Corporate operations include corporate-wide governance functions such as the Company's executive management team, aviation, tax, treasury, internal audit, corporate strategy, and certain accounting, human resources and legal costs related to supporting the corporate function. Costs incurred by Corporate that are attributable to a segment are allocated to the respective segment.
