What drove it
- Total revenue growth was driven by organic growth across most segments, contributions from recent acquisitions completed in the current and prior year, and favorable foreign currency fluctuations.
- Revenue benefited from foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations of $9.1 million, primarily in Brazil.
- The Company advanced its Latin America growth strategy through agreements with Transbank in Chile and Clip in Mexico.
- The higher contribution from the Latin America segment primarily drove the modest decline in Adjusted EBITDA margin.
Concerns
- GAAP net income attributable to common shareholders was $5.4 million, compared with $40.5 million in the prior year quarter.
- The Company recorded impairment charges associated with its strategic decision to exit an equity method investment and incurred cybersecurity incident response and remediation costs.
- Recent acquisitions contributed integration costs, higher depreciation and amortization related to acquired intangible assets, and increased interest expense from higher outstanding debt balances.
- Income tax expense was higher, primarily due to discrete tax items, including taxes associated with a dividend distribution used to partially fund the Dimensa acquisition, a valuation allowance against capital losses from the equity investment exit, and a greater proportion of taxable income in higher-tax foreign jurisdictions.
- Business Solutions revenue contracted mainly as a result of the 10% discount to Popular that came into effect in the fourth quarter of 2025.
What to watch
- Execution against revised 2026 revenue guidance of $ 1,085 to $ 1,095 and Adjusted EPS guidance of $ 3.94 to $ 4.04.
- Adjusted EBITDA margin performance against the continued 39% to 40% outlook, following the second-quarter margin of 39.8%.
- The contribution from recent acquisitions and the associated integration, depreciation and amortization, non-controlling interest and debt costs.
- Foreign currency effects, which contributed $9.1 million to second-quarter revenue and are reflected in the 2026 constant currency outlook.
- The effect of the Popular discount on Business Solutions revenue and the planned use of the $150 million repurchase authorization.

Analysis
Evertec reported second-quarter revenue of $274.8 million, up 20% from $229.6 million, while constant currency revenue was $265.7 million and grew 16%. Growth reflected organic gains across most segments, recent acquisitions and favorable foreign currency fluctuations. The Company identified a $9.1 million benefit from foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations, primarily in Brazil. Merchant Acquiring benefited from higher sales volume, higher non-transactional revenues and improved spread, while Payment Services - Puerto Rico & Caribbean benefited from higher POS transactions, ATH Movil growth and a non-recurring volume-based benefit.
Latin America Payments and Solutions generated $130,873 of revenue, the largest reported segment revenue figure, with contributions from recent acquisitions and continued organic growth. The release attributes the Adjusted EBITDA margin decline to 39.8% from 40.3% primarily to a higher Latin America segment contribution. Business Solutions revenue was $58,825 and contracted mainly because the 10% discount to Popular became effective in the fourth quarter of 2025. The Company also cited strategic agreements with Transbank in Chile and Clip in Mexico as advancing its Latin America growth strategy.
Underlying adjusted profitability increased, with Adjusted EBITDA of $109,335, up 18%, and Adjusted Net Income of $64,755 versus $57,665. Adjusted diluted earnings per common share increased 18% to $1.05 from $0.89, with the release citing higher Adjusted EBITDA and a lower share count from repurchases. In contrast, GAAP net income attributable to common shareholders declined to $5,405 from $40,465, and GAAP diluted EPS was $0.09 versus $0.62. The Company cited equity investment impairment, cybersecurity response and remediation, acquisition integration costs, acquired-intangible depreciation and amortization, higher interest expense, and discrete tax items.
Capital allocation included $47.1 million of second-quarter share repurchases and $50.1 million returned to shareholders through repurchases and dividends. The Board increased the repurchase authorization to an aggregate $150 million on July 31, 2026, with an expiration date of December 31, 2027. As of June 30, 2026, cash and cash equivalents were $260,659 and long-term debt was $1,221,871. For the six months ended June 30, 2026, net cash provided by operating activities was $90,691, while acquisitions, net of cash acquired, were $179,757.
Management raised 2026 revenue guidance to $ 1,085 to $ 1,095 and Adjusted EPS guidance to $ 3.94 to $ 4.04. It continued to expect Adjusted EBITDA margin of 39% to 40%, capital expenditures of approximately $90 million and an adjusted effective tax rate of approximately 11% to 12%. The guide embeds continued growth but leaves execution dependent on acquisition contributions, organic regional growth, foreign currency effects and the ability to manage the cost and earnings effects associated with higher debt and acquired assets.
Management, verbatim
We delivered a strong second quarter, reflecting organic growth across our business, the contributions from our recent acquisitions, and the continued execution of our strategy. Given our strong first-half performance and outlook for the remainder of the year, we are raising our full-year guidance and remain focused on executing our strategy.
