See footnotes on the following page.
1.
As a result of the sale of the Company’s
merchant services business, which was completed on September 20,
2024, the historical results of i3 Verticals' merchant services
business have been reflected in discontinued operations in the
consolidated statement of operations included in this earnings
release, and continuing operations reflect the Company's remaining
operations after giving effect to such classification. Prior period
results have been recast to reflect this presentation.
2.
Represents a non-GAAP financial measure.
For additional information (including reconciliation information),
see the attached schedules to this release.
3.
Annualized Recurring Revenue ("ARR") is
the annualized revenue derived from software-as-a-service (“SaaS”)
arrangements, transaction-based software-revenue, software
maintenance, recurring software-based services, payments revenue
and other recurring revenue sources within the quarter. This
excludes contracts that are not recurring or are one-time in
nature. The Company focuses on ARR because it helps i3 Verticals to
assess the health and trajectory of the business. ARR does not have
a standardized definition and is therefore unlikely to be
comparable to similarly titled measures presented by other
companies. It should be reviewed independently of revenue and it is
not a forecast. Additionally, ARR does not take into account
seasonality. The active contracts at the end of a reporting period
used in calculating ARR may or may not be extended or renewed by
our customers.
Greg Daily, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of i3
Verticals, commented, "We are pleased to report our earnings for
the fourth quarter of fiscal 2024. Our results for the year reflect
a culmination of what has been a significant transition for our
business. We are now a streamlined and scaled vertical market
software provider. We have also de-levered and are ready to
capitalize on multiple growth opportunities in 2025.
“i3 Verticals has an excellent financial profile and we expect
revenue growth and margin expansion to accelerate in the next
fiscal year. We remain focused on growing recurring revenue, which
improved by 7.5% this quarter. Looking ahead we expect to achieve
high-single digits organic revenue growth in fiscal 2025 and
increase our margins by more than 100 bps.
"Finally, I want to welcome Chad Fenner, our new Chief Product
Officer. Chad has more than two decades of experience driving
growth through product development and management. We are excited
to have him on our team to help us bring the best possible products
to market.”
2025 Outlook
The Company's practice is to provide annual guidance, excluding
the impact of future acquisitions, dispositions and
transaction-related costs.
The Company is providing the following outlook for the fiscal
year ending September 30, 2025, which remains unchanged from the
previous guidance included in the Company's earnings release issued
on August 8, 2024:

With respect to the “2025 Outlook” above, reconciliations of
adjusted EBITDA, pro forma adjusted diluted earnings per share and
adjusted diluted earnings per share guidance to the most comparable
GAAP measures on a forward-looking basis are not available without
unreasonable efforts. This inability results from the inherent
difficulty in forecasting generally and quantifying certain
projected amounts that are necessary for such reconciliations. In
particular, sufficient information is not available to calculate
certain adjustments required for such reconciliations, including
changes in the fair value of contingent consideration, income tax
expense of i3 Verticals, Inc. and equity-based compensation
expense. The Company expects these adjustments may have a
potentially significant impact on future GAAP financial
results.
Change in Segments
As noted above, the Company completed the sale of its merchant
services business on September 20, 2024. As a result, the
historical results of the merchant services business have been
reflected in discontinued operations in the Company's consolidated
financial statements, and the Company no longer presents a merchant
services segment. After giving effect to these developments, the
Company has two reportable segments, Public Sector and Healthcare.
See below under “i3 Verticals, Inc. Segment Summary” for financial
information for our reportable segments for the periods
presented.

Non-GAAP Measures
This press release contains information prepared in conformity
with GAAP as well as non-GAAP information. It is management’s
intent to provide non-GAAP financial information to enhance
understanding of the Company's consolidated financial information
as prepared in accordance with GAAP. This non-GAAP information
should be considered by the reader in addition to, but not instead
of, the financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP. Each
non-GAAP financial measure and the most directly comparable GAAP
financial measure are presented for historical periods so as not to
imply that more emphasis should be placed on the non-GAAP measure.
The non-GAAP financial information presented may be determined or
calculated differently by other companies.
Additional information about non-GAAP financial measures,
including, but not limited to, pro forma adjusted net income from
continuing operations, adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations
and pro forma adjusted diluted EPS from continuing operations, and
a reconciliation of those measures to the most directly comparable
GAAP measures is included in the financial schedules of this
release.

2025 financial outlook and statements of a general economic or
industry specific nature. Forward-looking statements give the
Company's current expectations and projections relating to its
financial condition, results of operations, guidance, plans,
objectives, future performance and business. You can identify

include words such as “anticipate,” “estimate,” “expect,”
“project,” “plan,” “intend,” “believe,” “may,” “will,” “should,”
“could have,” “exceed,” “significantly,” “likely” and other words
and terms of similar meaning in connection with any discussion of

uncertainties (many of which are beyond the Company's control) and
assumptions. Factors that could cause actual results to differ from

include, among other things: ongoing and future economic and
geopolitical conditions, including the impact of inflation and
elevated interest rates, competition in our industry and our
ability to compete effectively, regulatory developments, the
successful integration of acquired businesses, our ability to
execute on our strategy and achieve our goals following the
completion of the sale of our merchant services business, and
future decisions made by us and our competitors. All of these
factors are difficult or impossible to predict accurately and many
of them are beyond our control. For a further list and description

affect our future operations, see Part I, Item 1A - Risk Factors in
our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the

During the fourth quarter of 2024, the
Company elected to change its presentation of debt issuance costs
associated with the revolver pursuant to the 2023 Senior Secured
Credit Facility to an asset rather than a reduction in the related
liability as the previously drawn amounts on the 2023 Senior
Secured Credit Facility were repaid upon the closing of the sale of
the Merchant Services Business. As of September 30, 2023, $2,924
was reclassified from a reduction in "Long-term debt, less current
portion and debt issuance costs, net" to "Other assets" to conform
to the current period presentation.

Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The Company discloses adjusted EBITDA from continuing
operations, pro forma adjusted net income from continuing
operations and pro forma adjusted diluted EPS from continuing
operations because the Company believes that these non-GAAP
financial measures provide useful information to investors in
understanding and evaluating the Company's ongoing operating
results. Accordingly, the Company discloses these non-GAAP
financial measures when reporting its financial results to
stockholders and potential investors in order to provide them with
an additional tool to evaluate the Company’s ongoing business
operations. The Company believes that these non-GAAP financial
measures are representative of comparative financial performance
that reflects the economic substance of the Company’s current and
ongoing business operations.
Although these non-GAAP financial measures assist in measuring
the Company's financial results and assessing its financial
performance, they are not necessarily comparable to similarly
titled measures of other companies due to potential inconsistencies
in the method of calculation. The Company believes that the
disclosure of these non-GAAP financial measures provides investors
with important key financial performance indicators that are
utilized by management to assess the Company's financial results,
evaluate the Company's business and make operational decisions on a
prospective, going-forward basis. Hence, management provides
disclosure of these non-GAAP financial measures to give
stockholders and potential investors an opportunity to see the
Company as viewed by management, to assess the Company with some of
the same tools that management utilizes internally and to be able
to compare such information with prior periods. The Company
believes that disclosure of these non-GAAP financial measures
provides investors with additional information to help them better
understand its financial statements just as management utilizes
these non-GAAP financial measures to better understand the
business, manage budgets and allocate resources.
