CSG SYSTEMS INTERNATIONAL, INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
1. GENERAL
CSG Systems International, Inc. (the "Company", "CSG", or forms of the pronoun "we") have prepared the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, and for the quarters and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S.”) (“GAAP”) for interim financial information, and pursuant to the instructions to Form 10-Q and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of our management, all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation of our financial position and operating results have been included. The unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (the “Financial Statements”) should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and notes thereto, together with Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (“MD&A”), contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 (our “2024 10-K”), filed with the SEC. The results of operations for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2025 are not necessarily indicative of the expected results for the entire year ending December 31, 2025.
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Use of Estimates in Preparation of Financial Statements. The preparation of our Financial Statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that may affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of our Financial Statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Revenue. As of June 30, 2025, our aggregate amount of the transaction price allocated to the remaining performance obligations was approximately $1.7 billion, which is made up of fixed fee consideration and guaranteed minimums expected to be recognized in the future related to performance obligations that are unsatisfied (or partially unsatisfied). We expect to recognize approximately 70% of this amount by the end of 2027, with the remaining amount recognized by the end of 2036. We have excluded from this amount variable consideration expected to be recognized in the future related to performance obligations that are unsatisfied. The majority of our future revenue is related to our SaaS and related solutions customer contracts that include variable consideration dependent upon a series of monthly volumes and/or daily usage of services and have contractual terms ending from 2025 through 2036. Our customer contracts may include guaranteed minimums and fixed monthly or annual fees.
The nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of our revenue and how revenue and cash flows are affected by economic factors is most appropriately depicted by revenue type, geographic region, and customer vertical.
Revenue by type for the quarters and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 was as follows (in thousands):

Deferred revenue recognized during the quarters ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 was $13.3 million and $10.7 million, respectively. Deferred revenue recognized during the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 was $33.0 million and $29.8 million, respectively.
Cash and Cash Equivalents. We consider all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less as of the date of purchase to be cash equivalents. As of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, our cash equivalents consist primarily of time deposits held at major banks. For the cash and cash equivalents denominated in foreign currencies and/or located outside the U.S., we do not anticipate any material amounts being unavailable for use in running our business, but may face limitations on moving cash out of certain foreign jurisdictions due to currency controls and potential negative economic consequences.
Restricted Cash. Restricted cash includes cash that is legally or contractually restricted, as well as our settlement and merchant reserve assets (discussed below). The nature of the restrictions on our settlement and merchant reserve assets consists of contractual restrictions with the merchants and restrictions arising from our policy and intention. It has historically been our policy to segregate settlement and merchant reserve assets from our operating cash balances, and our intention is to continue to do so. As of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, we had $1.8 million and $1.7 million, respectively, of restricted cash that mainly serves to collateralize bank and performance guarantees included in other non-current assets on our unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets (“Balance Sheets” or “Balance Sheet”).
Settlement and Merchant Reserve Assets and Liabilities. Settlement assets and settlement liabilities represent cash collected on behalf of merchants via payments processing services which is held for an established holding period until settlement with the customer. The holding period is generally one to four business days depending on the payment model and contractual terms with the customer. During the holding period, cash is subject to restriction and segregation based on the nature of our custodial relationship with the merchants. Should we fail to remit these funds to our merchants, the merchant's sole recourse for payment would be against us. These rights and obligations are set forth in the contracts between us and the merchants. Settlement assets are held with various major financial institutions, and a corresponding liability is recorded for the amounts owed to the customer. At any given time, there may be differences between the cash held and the corresponding liability due to the timing of operating-related cash transfers.
Merchant reserve assets/liabilities represent deposits collected from merchants to mitigate our risk of loss due to nonperformance of settlement obligations initiated by those merchants using our payments processing services, or non-payment by customers for services rendered by us. We perform a credit risk evaluation on each customer based on multiple criteria, which provides the basis for the deposit amount required for each merchant. For the duration of our relationship with each merchant, we hold their reserve deposits with major financial institutions. We hold these funds in separate accounts, which are offset by corresponding liabilities.

Financial Instruments. Our financial instruments as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024 include cash and cash equivalents, settlement and merchant reserve assets and liabilities, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and debt. Due to their short maturities, the carrying amounts of cash equivalents, settlement and merchant reserve assets and liabilities, accounts receivable, and accounts payable approximate their fair value. Realized and unrealized gains and losses were not material in any period presented.
We have chosen not to record our debt at fair value, with changes recognized in earnings each reporting period. The following table indicates the carrying value and estimated fair value of our debt as of the indicated periods (in thousands):

The fair value of our convertible notes was estimated based upon quoted market prices or recent sales activity, while the fair values of our credit agreements were estimated using a discounted cash flow methodology, both of which are considered Level 2 inputs. See Note 5 for a discussion regarding our debt.
New Tax Legislation. The One Big Beautiful Bill Act (“OBBBA”) was enacted on July 4, 2025 and we are assessing the impact of this new legislation. The effect of changes in tax laws, including retroactive changes, are recognized in the financial statement in the period that the changes are enacted. The OBBBA is not currently expected to materially impact our effective tax rate, but we are still assessing the potential impact to our deferred tax balances and cash flows which will be reflected in our financial statements beginning in the third quarter of 2025.
Accounting Pronouncements Issued but Not Yet Effective. In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued ASU No. 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (“ASU 2023-09”), which requires entities to disclose more detailed information about their effective tax rate reconciliation as well as information on income taxes paid. ASU 2023-09 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. The adoption of this standard only impacts disclosures and is not expected to have a material impact on our Financial Statements.
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-03, Income Statement – Reporting Comprehensive Income – Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40) (“ASU 2024-03”), which requires entities to disclose disaggregated information about certain income statement expense line items in the notes to their financial statements on an annual and interim basis. ASU 2024-03 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027, with early adoption permitted. We are currently in the process of evaluating the impact of this ASU on our Financial Statements and related disclosures.
3. SEGMENT REPORTING AND CUSTOMER CONCENTRATION
Segment Information. Our Chief Operating Decision Maker ("CODM") is our President and Chief Executive Officer. We have evaluated how our CODM has organized the Company for purposes of making operating decisions, preparing budgets and forecasts, setting targets, allocating resources, and assessing performance. Our CODM manages all business activities on a consolidated basis, and as a result, we have concluded that as of June 30, 2025, there is one reportable segment.
As our one segment is managed on a consolidated basis, our measure of segment profit or loss is consolidated net income. Our CODM uses consolidated net income to assess the performance of our one segment and decide how and where to allocate resources and reinvest profits into the business in areas such as research and development (“R&D”), business and/or asset acquisitions, investments in market share expansion with our existing and potential new customers, talent, technology, the repurchase of our common stock, and/or the payment of dividends. Net income, and components of net income, are used to monitor actual performance and are compared to budgeted and forecasted results to assess the performance of our one segment, set targets, and establish management’s incentive compensation. The measure of consolidated segment assets is reported on our Balance Sheets as total assets. We do not have intra-entity sales or transfers.
We regularly provide our CODM a reporting package that shows our results by functional expense, similar to our Income Statements. However, for purposes of this reporting package, depreciation is included in these functional expense categories, rather than broken out separately. Additionally, certain expenses such as restructuring and reorganization charges, executive transition costs, and acquisition-related charges, along with non-cash charges such as stock-based compensation and amortization of acquired intangibles, are excluded. The following table provides the significant expenses that are regularly provided to our CODM for our one segment, the required disclosable amounts that are included in consolidated net income, and a reconciliation to consolidated net income for the quarters and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024:

2025 Credit Agreement. In March 2025, we entered into a $600.0 million five-year debt arrangement (the "2025 Credit Agreement") with a consortium of banks. The 2025 Credit Agreement consists of a $600.0 million aggregate principal five-year revolving loan facility (the "2025 Revolver") due March 2030 (subject to a springing maturity of 91 days prior to the maturity date of certain of our long-term indebtedness if, on such date, the aggregate principal amount of such indebtedness equals or exceeds $127.0 million and 50% of consolidated EBITDA (subject to certain exceptions as defined in the 2025 Credit Agreement)). The 2025 Credit Agreement replaced our $600.0 million five-year credit agreement entered into in September 2021 (the “2021 Credit Agreement”), which consisted of: (i) $150.0 million aggregate principal five-year term loan (the "2021 Term Loan"); and (ii) $450.0 million revolving loan facility (the "2021 Revolver").
Upon execution of the 2025 Credit Agreement, we withdrew $140.6 million from the 2025 Revolver. These funds were used to repay: (i) the outstanding $125.6 million balance of 2021 Term Loan; (ii) the outstanding $10.0 million balance of 2021 Revolver that we withdrew during the first quarter of 2025; and (iii) certain fees and expenses in connection with the new debt arrangement, with the remainder to be used for general corporate purposes.
The interest rates under the 2025 Credit Agreement are based upon our choice of an adjusted Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR") plus an applicable margin of 1.375% - 2.125%, or an alternate base rate ("ABR") plus an applicable margin of 0.375% - 1.125%, with the applicable margin dependent upon our then-net secured total leverage ratio. We pay a commitment fee of 0.150% - 0.325% of the average daily unused amount of the 2025 Revolver, with the commitment fee rate also dependent upon our then-net secured total leverage ratio.
The 2025 Credit Agreement requires quarterly commitment fee payments and interest payments based on the interest election period. The 2025 Credit Agreement contains certain customary prepayment or repayment provisions. As specified in the 2025 Credit Agreement, if certain customary events were to occur, we may be required to pay all amounts outstanding under the 2025 Credit Agreement, together with interest payable thereon.
The 2025 Credit Agreement contains customary affirmative covenants. In addition, the 2025 Credit Agreement has customary negative covenants that places limits on our ability to: (i) incur additional indebtedness; (ii) create liens on its property; (iii) make investments; (iv) enter into mergers and consolidations; (v) sell assets; (vi) declare dividends or repurchase shares; (vii) engage in certain transactions with affiliates; (viii) prepay certain indebtedness; and (ix) issue capital stock of subsidiaries. We must also meet a total net leverage ratio financial covenant.
During the second quarter of 2025, we repaid $0.6 million. As of June 30, 2025, we had $125.0 million outstanding on our 2025 Revolver, leaving $475.0 million available to us.
In conjunction with the closing of the 2025 Credit Agreement, we incurred total debt financing costs of $2.3 million. As certain lenders from the 2021 Credit Agreement chose not to participate in the 2025 Credit Agreement we recognized a loss on extinguishment of $0.5 million, which related to the write-off of unamortized debt issuance costs. The remaining $0.9 million of unamortized debt issuance costs related to the 2021 Credit Agreement, when combined with the $2.3 million of debt financing costs related to 2025 Credit Agreement, totaled $3.2 million and are being amortized to interest expense over the term of the 2025 Credit Agreement.
2023 Convertible Notes. The 2023 Convertible Notes will be convertible at the option of the noteholders before June 15, 2028, upon the occurrence of certain events. On or after June 15, 2028, and until the close of business on the second scheduled trading day immediately preceding September 15, 2028, the maturity date, noteholders may convert all or any portion of their notes at any time regardless of these conditions.
The 2023 Convertible Notes will be convertible at an initial conversion rate of 14.0753 shares of our common stock per $1,000 principal amount of the 2023 Convertible Notes, which is equivalent to an initial conversion price of $71.05 per share of our common stock, plus carryforward adjustments not yet effected pursuant to the terms of the indenture governing the 2023 Convertible Notes. Under the terms of the 2023 Convertible Notes, we will adjust the conversion rate for any quarterly dividends exceeding $0.28 per share.
We are required to satisfy our conversion obligation as follows: (i) paying cash up to the aggregate principal amount of notes to be converted; and (ii) to the extent the value of our conversion obligation exceeds the par value, we will satisfy the remaining conversion obligation in our common stock, cash, or a combination thereof, at our election. As of June 30, 2025, none of the conditions to early convert have been met.
We may not redeem the 2023 Convertible Notes prior to September 21, 2026. On or after September 21, 2026, we may redeem for cash all or part of the 2023 Convertible Notes, subject to a partial redemption limitation that requires at least $100.0 million of the principal amount of the 2023 Convertible Notes to remain outstanding if the last reported sales price of our common stock has been at least 130% of the conversion price then in effect for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) during any 30 consecutive trading day period (including the last trading day of such period) ending on, and including, the trading day immediately preceding the date on which we provide notice of redemption. The redemption price will equal the principal amount of the 2023 Convertible Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the redemption date. No sinking fund has been established for the 2023 Convertible Notes.
In connection with the pricing of the 2023 Convertible Notes, we entered into privately negotiated capped call transactions (the “Capped Call Transactions”) with certain of the initial purchasers of the 2023 Convertible Notes and other financial institutions (collectively, the “Option Counterparties”). As of June 30, 2025, all the Capped Call Transactions were outstanding and cover, subject to anti-dilution adjustments substantially similar to those applicable to the 2023 Convertible Notes, 5.98 million shares of our common stock, the same number of shares of common stock underlying the 2023 Convertible Notes. The Capped Call Transactions will expire upon the maturity of the 2023 Convertible Notes.
Other. We finance certain of our internal use software. During the second quarter of 2025, we entered into financing agreements at a total cost of $1.8 million with payments through 2028. As of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, we had $11.8 million and $8.5 million, respectively, outstanding under these agreements, of which $6.7 million and $4.2 million, respectively, were included in current liabilities and $5.1 million and $4.3 million, respectively, were included in non-current liabilities on our Balance Sheets. These arrangements are treated as non-cash investing and financing activities for purposes of our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows ("Statements of Cash Flows").
Additionally, during the first quarter of 2025, we extended our agreement with our outsourced computing services provider (see Note 8) and elected to extend our current data center environment through 2028, which required us to reassess the lease classification. As a result, as of June 30, 2025, we have a finance lease right-of-use asset of $10.6 million. During the six months ended June 30, 2025, we have made finance lease payments of $0.9 million.
6. ACQUISITIONS
iCheckGateway.com, LLC. On June 3, 2024, we acquired 100% of the equity of iCheckGateway.com, LLC (“iCG”), an ACH and credit card payment processing company. We acquired iCG to further expand the industry verticals we serve and to provide opportunities for the continued growth of our business. The acquisition date fair value of the consideration transferred was $17.6 million in cash paid upon close.
The iCG acquisition includes provisions for up to $15.0 million of potential future earn-out payments. The earn-out payments are tied to performance-based goals and a defined service period and are accounted for as post-acquisition compensation, as applicable. The earn-out period is through June 3, 2027. During the second quarter of 2025, we made earn-out payments of $5.0 million. As of June 30, 2025, we have accrued $3.5 million related to the potential earn-out payments.
DGIT Systems Pty Ltd. On October 4, 2021, we acquired DGIT Systems Pty Ltd (“DGIT”), a provider of configure, price and quote (CPQ), and order management solutions for the telecommunications industry. We acquired 100% of the equity of DGIT for a purchase price of approximately $16 million, approximately $14 million paid upon close and the remaining consideration of approximately $2 million to be paid through 2025, subject to certain reductions, as applicable. During the first quarter of 2025, we made the final deferred purchase price payment of $0.3 million.
The DGIT acquisition includes provisions for up to approximately $12 million of potential future earn-out payments. The earn-out payments are tied to performance-based goals and a defined service period and are accounted for as post-acquisition compensation, as applicable. The earn-out period is through December 31, 2026. Through June 30, 2025, $0.4 million of the earn-out had been achieved and was paid, including $0.1 million paid in the first quarter of 2025. As of June 30, 2025, we have accrued $8.0 million related to potential earn-out payments.
7. RESTRUCTURING AND REORGANIZATION CHARGES
During the second quarters of 2025 and 2024, we recorded restructuring and reorganization charges of $4.6 million and $7.1 million, respectively, and for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, we recorded restructuring and reorganization charges of $12.0 million and $9.1 million, respectively.
During the six months ended June 30, 2025, we implemented the following restructuring and reorganizational activities:
•
We reduced our global workforce by approximately 150 employees, as part of cost efficiency actions to optimize our capacity and better align our resources. As a result, we incurred restructuring charges related to involuntary terminations of $7.7 million.
•
At the end of March 2025, we announced our plans to close our design and delivery center in Crawfordville, Florida in August 2025. All processing volumes done at this location are currently being transitioned to our two other design and delivery facilities. The closing of this facility will result in the elimination of approximately 100 employees in Florida, which is occurring in phases beginning in June 2025. Additional hires will be made at the other locations to absorb the additional volumes. As of June 30, 2025, all impacted employees have been notified and the related severance costs are being accrued over each employee's respective service period, which resulted in $2.0 million of expense during the second quarter of 2025. The total estimated cost of this facility closure, to include involuntary termination benefits, relocation costs, accelerated depreciation, and decommissioning work is expected to be approximately $5 million. As of June 30, 2025 we have incurred total expenses of $3.2 million, with the majority of the remaining costs expected to be incurred during the remainder of 2025.

During the first quarter of 2025, we paid $1.3 million related to the exit of a reseller agreement that was acquired with the acquisition of Forte Payment Systems, Inc. in 2018.
As of June 30, 2025, all restructuring and reorganization reserves were included in current liabilities.
8. COMMITMENTS, GUARANTEES AND CONTINGENCIES
Service Agreements. In March 2025, we extended our agreement with Ensono, Inc. to provide us with outsourced computing services through December 31, 2032. As part of this extension, we elected to extend our current data center environment through 2028, which resulted in the lease classification of the data center environment being reassessed. The data center environment is now being accounted for as a finance lease right-of-use asset on our Balance Sheet with the corresponding liability in other current and non-current liabilities.
Guarantees. In the ordinary course of business, we may provide guarantees in the form of bid bonds or performance bonds. As of June 30, 2025, we had $1.8 million of restricted assets used to collateralize these guarantees, which are included in other non-current assets on our Balance Sheet.
We have performance guarantees in the form of surety bonds and standby letters of credit, along with money transmitter bonds, issued through third-parties that are not required to be reflected on our Balance Sheets. As of June 30, 2025, we had performance guarantees of $3.8 million. We are ultimately liable for claims that may occur against these guarantees. We have no history of material claims or are aware of circumstances that would require us to pay under any of these arrangements. We also believe that the resolution of any claim that may arise in the future, either individually or in the aggregate, would not be material to our Financial Statements. As of June 30, 2025, we had total aggregate money transmitter bonds of $23.7 million outstanding. These money transmitter bonds are for the benefit of various states to comply with the states’ financial requirements and industry regulations for money transmitter licenses.
Warranties. We generally warrant that our solutions and related offerings will conform to published specifications, or to specifications provided in an individual customer arrangement, as applicable. The typical warranty period is 90 days from the date of acceptance of the solution or offering. For certain service offerings we provide a warranty for the duration of the services provided. We generally warrant that those services will be performed in a professional and skillful manner. The typical remedy for breach of warranty is to correct or replace any defective deliverable, and if not possible or practical, we will accept the return of the defective deliverable and refund the amount paid under the customer arrangement that is allocable to the defective deliverable. Our contracts also generally contain limitation of damages provisions in an effort to reduce our exposure to monetary damages arising from breach of warranty claims. Historically, we have incurred minimal warranty costs, and as a result, do not maintain a warranty reserve.
Solution and Services Indemnifications. Arrangements with our customers generally include an indemnification provision that will indemnify and defend a customer in actions brought against the customer that claim our products and/or services infringe upon a copyright, trade secret, or valid patent. Historically, we have not incurred any significant costs related to such indemnification claims, and as a result, do not maintain a reserve for such exposure.
Claims for Company Non-performance. Our arrangements with our customers typically limit our liability for breach to a specified amount of the direct damages incurred by the customer resulting from the breach. From time-to-time, these arrangements may also include provisions for possible liquidated damages or other financial remedies for our non-performance, or in the case of certain of our solutions, provisions for damages related to service level performance requirements. The service level performance requirements typically relate to system availability and timeliness of service delivery. As of June 30, 2025, we believe we have adequate reserves, based on our historical experience, to cover any reasonably anticipated exposure as a result of our non-performance for any past or current arrangements with our customers.
Sales and Use Tax. In the ordinary course of business, we are, from time to time, subject to audits performed by state taxing authorities. We continually assess our sales and use tax exposure and as of June 30, 2025, we believe that we have adequate reserves to cover any taxes owed and related penalties and interest. While we believe that the assumptions and estimates used to determine these liabilities are reasonable, the ultimate outcome of these matters cannot be certain, and we will adjust these estimated liabilities as new information becomes available.
Indemnifications Related to Officers and the Board of Directors. Other guarantees include promises to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless our directors, and certain officers. Such indemnification covers any expenses and liabilities reasonably incurred by a person, by reason of the fact that such person is, was, or has agreed to be a director or officer, in connection with the investigation, defense, and settlement of any threatened, pending, or contemplated action, suit, proceeding, or claim. We maintain directors’ and officers’ (“D&O”) insurance coverage to protect against such losses. We have not historically incurred any losses related to these types of indemnifications and are not aware of any pending or threatened actions or claims against any officer or member of our Board of Directors (the "Board"). As a result, we have not recorded any liabilities related to such indemnifications as of June 30, 2025. In addition, as a result of the insurance policy coverage, we believe these indemnification agreements are not significant to our results of operations.
Legal Proceedings. From time to time, we are involved in litigation relating to claims arising out of our operations in the normal course of business.
9. EARNINGS PER COMMON SHARE
Basic and diluted earnings per common share (“EPS”) amounts are presented on the face of our unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income (the "Income Statements").
The reconciliation of the basic and diluted EPS denominators related to common shares is included in the following table (in thousands):

The dilutive effect of time-based awards is computed using the treasury stock method. The dilutive effect of performance-based and market-based awards is computed based on the number of shares that would be issued as if the end of the reporting period was the end of the performance period. The dilutive effect of the 2023 Convertible Notes is computed using the if-converted method and will only have an effect in those quarterly periods in which our average stock price exceeds the current effective conversion price.
Potentially dilutive common shares related to non-participating unvested restricted stock were excluded from the computation of diluted EPS, as the effect was anti-dilutive, and were not material in any period presented.
10. STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY AND EQUITY COMPENSATION PLANS
Stock Repurchase Program. We currently have a stock repurchase program, approved by our Board, authorizing us to repurchase shares of our common stock from time-to-time as market and business conditions warrant (the “Stock Repurchase Program”). During the second quarters of 2025 and 2024, we repurchased approximately 275,000 shares of our common stock for $17.1 million (weighted-average price of $62.24 per share), and approximately 219,000 shares of our common stock for $9.7 million (weighted-average price of $44.32 per share), respectively, under a SEC Rule 10b5-1 Plan. During the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, we repurchased approximately 428,000 shares of our common stock for $26.7 million (weighted-average price of $62.39 per share), and approximately 404,000 shares of our common stock for $19.3 million (weighted-average price of $47.82 per share), respectively, under a SEC Rule 10b5-1 Plan. The excise tax imposed on share repurchases, which is included as a cost of treasury stock, is not reflected in these amounts.
As of June 30, 2025, the total remaining value of shares available for repurchase under the Stock Repurchase Program totaled $111.3 million, with the amount authorized for repurchase through December 31, 2025.
Stock Repurchases for Tax Withholdings. In addition to the above-mentioned stock repurchases, during the second quarters of 2025 and 2024, we repurchased and then cancelled approximately 15,000 shares of common stock for $1.0 million and approximately 9,000 shares of common stock for $0.4 million, respectively, and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, we repurchased and then cancelled approximately 219,000 shares of common stock for $13.8 million and approximately 168,000 shares of common stock for $8.9 million, respectively, in connection with minimum tax withholding requirements resulting from the vesting of restricted common stock under our stock incentive plan.
Cash Dividends. During the second quarter of 2025, our Board approved a quarterly cash dividend of $0.32 per share of common stock, totaling $9.2 million. During the second quarter of 2024, our Board approved a quarterly cash dividend of $0.30 per share of common stock, totaling $8.8 million. Dividends declared for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 totaled $18.6 million and $17.6 million, respectively. As of June 30, 2025 and 2024, we had $10.4 million and $1.6 million, respectively, of dividends accrued, which are included in other current and non-current liabilities on our Balance Sheets. The increase in accrued dividends for 2025 relates primarily to our second quarter of 2025 dividends that were declared in June, but will be paid in July.
Stock-Based Awards. During the six months ended June 30, 2025 we granted restricted stock awards to key members of management in the form of: (i) performance-based awards of approximately 170,000 restricted common stock shares, of which the majority will vest in the first quarter of 2027 upon meeting certain pre-established financial performance objectives over a two-year performance period; and (ii) market-based awards of approximately 51,000 restricted common stock shares, which vest in the first quarter of 2028 upon meeting a relative total shareholder return performance achievement tier. Certain of these awards may vest (i.e., vesting accelerates) upon the involuntary termination of employment or a change in control (as defined) and the subsequent involuntary termination of employment.
During the six months ended June 30, 2025, we also granted restricted stock awards to key members of management in the form of time-based awards of approximately 391,000 restricted common stock shares, which vest annually over three years with no restrictions other than the passage of time. Certain of these awards may vest (i.e., vesting accelerates) upon the involuntary termination of employment, a change in control (as defined) and the subsequent involuntary termination of employment, or death.
We recorded stock-based compensation expense for the second quarters of 2025 and 2024 of $8.6 million for both periods, and for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 of $17.0 million and $16.4 million, respectively.
11. SUBSEQUENT EVENT
On July 5, 2025, CSG terminated a master services agreement (the “MSA”) for one of our implementation projects in the Latin America region on the basis that the customer unlawfully renounced its obligations under the MSA. At this time, there is no work being performed on the project and CSG intends to pursue any and all available remedies.
During the six months ended June 30, 2025, we recognized $1.4 million in revenue related to this project. As of June 30, 2025, we had accounts receivable of $18.5 million ($1.4 million billed and $17.1 million unbilled) related to this project. As of the date of this filing, CSG does not believe there has been an impairment to the carrying values of the assets and believes such amounts are recoverable per the terms of the MSA or as a matter of common law.

We are a member of the S&P Small Cap 600 and Russell 2000 indices.
Macroeconomic Outlook
Current geopolitical and economic uncertainties, including inflation, tariffs and changes in trade policy, supply chain disruptions, and labor shortages, could adversely affect our business. The potential impact to our business could depend on multiple factors, including the duration and potential expansion of tariffs, retaliatory measures by impacted exporting countries, inflationary effects, and broader macroeconomic responses. Because we cannot predict the impact these events could have on current economic conditions or our business, there is no assurance that we will be able to fully mitigate the financial and competitive impacts related to such uncertainties, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations.

Transaction fees are primarily comprised of fees paid to third-party payment processors and financial institutions and interchange fees under our payment services contracts. Transaction fees are included in revenue on our Income Statement (and not netted against revenue) because we maintain control and act as the principal over the integrated service provided under our payment services customer contracts.
(2)
Restructuring and reorganization charges include stock-based compensation, which is not included in the stock-based compensation line in the table above, and depreciation, which has not been recorded to the depreciation line on our Income Statement.
Revenue. Revenue for the second quarter of 2025 was $297.1 million, a 2.3% increase when compared to revenue of $290.3 million for the second quarter of 2024. The increase in revenue was primarily attributed to the continued growth of our SaaS and related solutions revenue, to include the revenue generated from the iCG business acquired in June of 2024.
Operating Results. Operating income for the second quarter of 2025 was $29.9 million, or a 10.0% operating margin percentage, compared to $25.4 million, or an 8.8% operating margin percentage for the second quarter of 2024. The increase in operating income was mainly attributed to the decrease in restructuring and reorganization charges between years along with the benefits received from the cost efficiency actions taken during 2024 and the first six months of 2025 to optimize and align resources to areas of the business with higher growth profiles.
Diluted EPS. Diluted EPS for the second quarter of 2025 was $0.44 compared to $0.48 for the second quarter of 2024, with the decrease mainly attributed to a higher effective income tax rate in the second quarter of 2025 due primarily to the increase in earn-out compensation related to the DGIT acquisition, for which a valuation allowance has been established for income tax purposes.
Cash and Cash Flows. As of June 30, 2025, we had cash and cash equivalents of $145.9 million, as compared to $136.0 million as of March 31, 2025 and $161.8 million as of December 31, 2024. Our cash flows provided by operating activities for the second quarter of 2025 were $48.8 million. See the Liquidity section below for further discussion of our cash flows.
Significant Customer Relationships
A large percentage of our revenue is generated from a limited number of customers in the global communications industry, with our three largest customers being Charter, Comcast, and DISH Network L.L.C.
Customer Concentration. We have significant customer concentration, with the following two customers exceeding 10% of our revenue (in thousands, except percentages):

Risk of Customer Concentration. We expect to continue to generate a large percentage of our future revenue from a limited number of customers. There are inherent risks whenever a large percentage of total revenue is concentrated with a limited number of customers. Should a significant customer: (i) terminate or fail to renew their contracts with us, in whole or in part, for any reason; (ii) significantly reduce the number of customer accounts processed on our solutions, the price paid for our services, or the scope of services that we provide; or (iii) experience financial or operating difficulties, it could have a material adverse effect on our financial position and results of operations.
Contract Termination
It is customary for us to enter into software implementation projects with certain customers. These implementation projects range from relatively short and noncomplex projects to long and complex projects, ranging from several months to several years in duration depending on the specifics of the project.
On July 5, 2025, CSG terminated a master services agreement (the “MSA”) for one of our implementation projects in the Latin America region on the basis that the customer unlawfully renounced its obligations under the MSA. At this time, there is no work being performed on the project and CSG intends to pursue any and all available remedies.
During the six months ended June 30, 2025, we recognized $1.4 million in revenue related to this project. CSG does not expect the termination of this contract to have a material impact on 2025 revenue. As of June 30, 2025, we had accounts receivable of $18.5 million ($1.4 million billed and $17.1 million unbilled) related to this project. As of the date of this filing, CSG does not believe there has been an impairment to the carrying values of the assets and believes such amounts are recoverable per the terms of the MSA or as a matter of common law. However, if we are not successful in collecting the amount expected under the terms of the MSA or as a matter of common law, it is possible that an impairment of these assets could result.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The preparation of our Financial Statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires us to select appropriate accounting policies, and to make judgments and estimates affecting the application of those accounting policies. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates and assumptions. In applying our accounting policies and estimates, different business conditions or the use of different assumptions may result in materially different amounts reported in our Financial Statements.
We have identified the most critical accounting policies and estimates that affect our financial position and the results of our operations. Those critical accounting policies and estimates were determined by considering the accounting policies that involve the most complex or subjective decisions or assessments. The most critical accounting policies and estimates identified relate to the following items: (i) revenue recognition; (ii) income taxes; and (iii) loss contingencies. These critical accounting policies, as well as our other significant accounting policies, are discussed in our 2024 10-K.
Results of Operations
Revenue. Total revenue for the: (i) second quarter of 2025 was $297.1 million, a 2.3% increase when compared to $290.3 million for the second quarter of 2024; and (ii) six months ended June 30, 2025 was $596.6 million, a 1.9% increase when compared to $585.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024.

The increases in revenue were primarily due to the continued growth of our SaaS and related solutions revenue, to include the revenue generated from the businesses acquired during the second quarter of 2024. Additionally, revenue for the second quarter of 2025 includes approximately $6 million of revenue recognized from a software license arrangement, which was offset by lower professional services revenue.
We use the location of the customer as the basis of attributing revenue to individual countries. Revenue by geographic regions for the second quarters and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 was as follows (in thousands):

Total Operating Expenses. Total operating expenses for the: (i) second quarter of 2025 were $267.3 million, a 0.9% increase when compared to $264.9 million for the second quarter of 2024; and (ii) six months ended June 30, 2025 were $537.3 million, a 1.7% increase when compared to $528.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024. The increases in total operating expenses were primarily a result of the increases in acquisition-related expenses, mainly attributed to the approximately $7 million of DGIT earn-out compensation recognized in the second quarter of 2025, along with the additional costs of the acquired businesses. These additional costs were offset to a certain degree by the cost efficiency actions taken during 2024 and the first six months of 2025 to optimize capacity and align resources to areas of the business with higher growth profiles.
The components of total operating expenses are discussed in more detail below.
Cost of Revenue (Exclusive of Depreciation). The cost of revenue for the: (i) second quarter of 2025 was $150.1 million, a 1.8% decrease when compared to $152.9 million for the second quarter of 2024; and (ii) six months ended June 30, 2025 was $304.6 million, a 2.0% decrease when compared to $310.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024. These decreases in cost of revenue are mainly attributed to lower employee-related costs, due to the reallocation of resources to development projects, deferred costs related to SaaS implementation projects, and our cost efficiency actions, discussed above. These decreases are partially offset by the increased costs reflective of the increases in SaaS and related solutions revenue between periods, to include the acquired businesses. Total cost of revenue as a percentage of revenue for the: (i) second quarters of 2025 and 2024 was 50.5% and 52.7%, respectively; and (ii) six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 was 51.1% and 53.1%, respectively.
R&D Expense (Exclusive of Depreciation). R&D expense for the: (i) second quarter of 2025 was $40.4 million, a 5.2% increase when compared to $38.4 million for the second quarter of 2024; and (ii) six months ended June 30, 2025 was $81.3 million, a 9.1% increase when compared to $74.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024. The increases in R&D expense between periods are attributed primarily to increased R&D investments in our faster growing SaaS solutions, such as Ascendon monetization and payments, and the impact of the acquisitions that we closed in 2024. Delivering future-ready solutions that have best-in-industry innovation (including new AI capabilities) is a key competitive advantage for us. As a percentage of total revenue, R&D expense for the: (i) second quarters of 2025 and 2024 was 13.6% and 13.2%, respectively; and (ii) six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 was 13.6% and 12.7%, respectively.
Selling, General, and Administrative ("SG&A") Expense (Exclusive of Depreciation). SG&A expense for the: (i) second quarter of 2025 was $67.5 million, a 10.4% increase when compared to $61.2 million for the second quarter of 2024; and (ii) six months ended June 30, 2025 was $129.8 million, a 5.7% increase when compared to $122.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024. These increases are mainly attributed to approximately $7 million of DGIT earn-out compensation recognized in the second quarter of 2025. As a percentage of total revenue, SG&A expense for the: (i) second quarters of 2025 and 2024 was 22.7% and 21.1%, respectively; and (ii) six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 was 21.8% and 21.0%, respectively.
Restructuring and Reorganization Charges. Restructuring and reorganization charges for the: (i) second quarter of 2025 were $4.6 million, a $2.5 million decrease when compared to $7.1 million for the second quarter of 2024; and (ii) six months ended June 30, 2025 was $12.0 million, a $2.9 million increase when compared to $9.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024. The restructuring and reorganization charges for the six months ended June 30, 2025 relate mainly to cost efficiency actions to optimize our capacity and better align resources along with costs associated with the closure of our design and delivery center in Crawfordville, Florida. These activities have resulted in restructuring charges of $9.7 million related to involuntary terminations.
See Note 7 to our Financial Statements for additional discussion.
Operating Income. Operating income for the: (i) second quarter of 2025 was $29.9 million, or 10.0% of total revenue, compared to $25.4 million, or 8.8% of total revenue for the second quarter of 2024; and (ii) six months ended June 30, 2025 was $59.2 million, or 9.9% of total revenue, compared to $57.2 million, or 9.8% of total revenue, for the six months ended June 30, 2024. The increases in operating income are mainly attributed to the benefits received from the cost efficiency actions taken during 2024 and the first six months of 2025 to optimize and align resources to areas of the business with higher growth profiles.
Interest Income. Interest income for the: (i) second quarter of 2025 was $1.1 million, a $1.0 million decrease when compared to $2.1 million for the second quarter of 2024; and (ii) six months ended June 30, 2025 was $3.0 million, a $1.7 million decrease when compared to $4.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024. These decreases are primarily attributed to lower cash balances being swept into overnight money market accounts on a daily basis.
Loss on Extinguishment of Debt. In March 2025, we entered into the 2025 Credit Agreement, which replaced the 2021 Credit Agreement (see Note 5 to our Financial Statements). As a result, we incurred a loss of $0.5 million related to the write-off of debt issuance costs.
Other, net. Other, net for the: (i) second quarter of 2025 was $3.6 million of other expense, a $3.8 million change from $0.2 million of other income for the second quarter of 2024; and (ii) six months ended June 30, 2025 was $5.8 million of other expense, a $6.5 million change when compared to $0.7 million of other income for the six months ended June 30, 2024. These changes were primarily attributed to foreign currency movements.
Income Tax Provision. The effective income tax rates for the: (i) second quarters of 2025 and 2024 were 38% and 31%, respectively; and (ii) six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 were 31% and 30%, respectively. Our estimated full year 2025 effective income tax rate is approximately 30%, with the increase in the full year rate attributed to the DGIT earn-out compensation, for which a valuation allowance has been established for income tax purposes (see Note 6 for further discussion of the DGIT earn-out payments).
Liquidity
Cash and Liquidity. As of June 30, 2025, our principal sources of liquidity included cash and cash equivalents of $145.9 million, compared to $136.0 million as of March 31, 2025, and $161.8 million as of December 31, 2024.
During the first quarter of 2025, we entered into the 2025 Credit Agreement, which consists of a $600.0 million five-year revolver, the 2025 Revolver, which replaced our $600.0 million five-year credit agreement entered into September 2021, the 2021 Credit Agreement. As of June 30, 2025, we had $125.0 million outstanding on the 2025 Revolver. The 2025 Credit Agreement contains customary affirmative, negative, and financial covenants. As of June 30, 2025, and the date of this filing, we believe we are in compliance with the provisions of the 2025 Credit Agreement.

We generally have ready access to substantially all of our cash and cash equivalents, but may face limitations on moving cash out of certain foreign jurisdictions due to currency controls and potential negative economic consequences.
As of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, we had $1.8 million and $1.7 million, respectively, of cash restricted as to use primarily to collateralize guarantees included in our non-current asset balance. In addition, as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, we had $256.1 million and $343.2 million, respectively, of settlement and merchant reserve assets which are deemed restricted due to contractual restrictions with the merchants and restrictions arising from our policy and intention. It has historically been our policy to segregate settlement and merchant reserve assets from our operating cash balances and we intend to continue to do so.
Cash Flows from Operating Activities. We calculate our cash flows from operating activities beginning with net income, adding back the impact of non-cash items or non-operating activity (e.g., depreciation, amortization, impairments, gain/loss on items such as investments, lease modifications, and debt extinguishments/conversions, unrealized foreign currency transactions gain/loss, deferred income taxes, stock-based compensation, etc.), and then factoring in the impact of changes in operating assets and liabilities. See our 2024 10-K for a description of the primary uses and sources of our cash flows from operating activities.
Our cash flows from operating activities, broken out between operations and changes in operating assets and liabilities, for the indicated quarterly periods are as follows (in thousands):

Cash flows from operating activities for the first quarter of 2025 reflect the impact of the payment of the 2024 year-end accrued employee incentive compensation.
(2)
Cash flows from operating activities for the first quarter of 2024 were negatively impacted by unfavorable working capital changes, to include the impact of the payment of the 2023 year-end accrued employee incentive compensation and timing of trade accounts receivable.
Variations in our net cash provided by (used in) operating activities are generally related to the changes in our operating assets and liabilities (related mostly to fluctuations in timing of customer payments and changes in accrued expenses), and generally over longer periods of time, do not significantly impact our cash flows from operations.
Significant fluctuations in key operating assets and liabilities between 2025 and 2024 that impacted our cash flows from operating activities are as follows:
Billed Trade Accounts Receivable
Management of our billed trade accounts receivable is one of the primary factors in maintaining strong cash flows from operating activities. These balances include significant billings for several non-revenue items (primarily postage, sales tax, and deferred revenue items). As a result, we evaluate our performance in collecting our billed trade accounts receivable through our calculation of Days Billings Outstanding (“DBO”) rather than a typical Days Sales Outstanding (“DSO”) calculation.
Our gross and net billed trade accounts receivable and related allowance for expected losses (“Allowance”) as of the end of the indicated quarterly periods, and the related DBOs for the quarters then ended, are as follows (in thousands, except DBOs):

As of June 30, 2025 and 2024, approximately 94% and 95%, respectively, of our net billed trade accounts receivable balances were less than 60 days past due.
We may experience adverse impacts to our DBOs if and when customer payment delays occur. However, the recurring monthly payments that cross a reporting period-end do not raise collectability concerns, as payment is generally received subsequent to quarter-end. All other changes in our gross and net billed accounts receivable reflect the normal fluctuations in the timing of customer payments at quarter-end, as evidenced by our relatively consistent DBO metric.
As a global provider of solutions and services, a portion of our trade accounts receivable balance relates to international customers. This diversity in the geographic composition of our customer base may adversely impact our DBOs as longer billing cycles (i.e., billing terms and cash collection cycles) are an inherent characteristic of international software and professional services transactions. As a result, we may experience fluctuations in our trade accounts receivable balance as our ability to invoice and collect arrangement fees is dependent upon, among other things: (i) the completion of various customer administrative matters, local country billing protocols and processes (including local cultural differences), and non-customer administrative matters; (ii) meeting certain contractual invoicing milestones and dates; (iii) the overall project status in certain situations in which we act as a subcontractor to another vendor on a project; or (iv) currency controls in certain foreign jurisdictions.
Unbilled Trade Accounts Receivable
Unbilled trade accounts receivable (current and non-current) increased $10.6 million to $90.8 million as of June 30, 2025, from $80.2 million as of December 31, 2024. These unbilled trade accounts receivable balances relate primarily to implementation projects where various milestone billing dates have not yet been reached or are delayed and to timing related to billing cutoff or contractual billing dates. As discussed in Contract Termination above, as of June 30, 2025, $17.1 million of the unbilled trade accounts receivable balance is related to one of our implementation projects. Unbilled trade accounts receivable are an inherent characteristic of certain software and services transactions and may fluctuate between quarters, as these types of transactions typically have scheduled invoicing terms over several quarters, as well as certain milestone billing events.
Income Taxes Receivable/Payable
Net income taxes receivable/payable (current and non-current) as of June 30, 2025 was a net income taxes receivable balance of $7.8 million, compared to a net income taxes payable balance of $7.9 million at December 31, 2024. This net $15.7 million change was primarily due to the timing of our estimated federal and state income tax payments.
Accrued Employee Compensation
Accrued employee compensation decreased $6.9 million to $61.0 million as of June 30, 2025, from $67.9 million as of December 31, 2024, due primarily to the payment of 2024 employee incentive compensation during the first quarter of 2025 that was fully accrued at December 31, 2024, partially offset by the accrual for 2025 employee incentive compensation.
Cash Flows from Investing Activities. Our typical investing activities consist of purchases of software, property, and equipment, which are discussed below.
Purchases of Software, Property, and Equipment
Our capital expenditures for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 for software, property, and equipment were $7.2 million and $9.1 million, respectively, and consisted principally of investments in software and related equipment.
Business Combinations, Net of Cash and Settlement Assets Acquired
The cash paid for the businesses acquired during the second quarter of 2024, less cash and settlement assets acquired, resulted in net cash provided by business combinations for the six months ended June 30, 2024 of $17.3 million.
Cash Flows from Financing Activities. Our financing activities typically consist of activities with our common stock, various debt-related transactions, and settlement and merchant reserve activity.
Cash Dividends Paid on Common Stock
During the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, our Board approved dividends totaling $18.6 million and $17.6 million, respectively, and we made dividend payments of $18.5 million and $18.1 million, respectively, with the differences between the amount approved and paid attributed to dividends accrued on unvested incentive shares that are paid upon vesting.
Repurchase of Common Stock
During the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, we repurchased approximately 428,000 and 404,000 shares of our common stock, respectively, under our Stock Repurchase Program for $26.7 million and $19.3 million, respectively.
Additionally, outside of our Stock Repurchase Program, during the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, we repurchased from our employees and then canceled approximately 219,000 and 168,000 shares of our common stock, respectively, for $13.8 million and $8.9 million, respectively, in connection with minimum tax withholding requirements resulting from the vesting of restricted stock under our stock incentive plans.
Through the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, we paid $40.5 million and $27.9 million, respectively, for our total repurchases of common stock, with any differences when compared to the amounts purchased attributed to the timing of the settlement and the excise tax imposed on share repurchases.
See Note 10 to our Financial Statements for additional discussion of our repurchases of common stock.
Long-Term Debt
During the first quarter of 2025, we borrowed $10.0 million from our 2021 Revolver for general corporate purposes. In March 2025, we entered into the 2025 Credit Agreement and as a result, we borrowed $140.6 million under the 2025 Revolver and repaid: (i) the outstanding 2021 Term Loan principal balance of $125.6 million; (ii) the outstanding 2021 Revolver balance of $10.0 million; and (iii) $2.3 million of debt financing costs; with the remainder used for general corporate purposes. Subsequently, we have repaid $15.6 million of the 2025 Revolver, leaving us with an outstanding balance of $125.0 million.
During the second quarter of 2024, we made principal repayments on our 2021 Term Loan of $3.8 million.
See Note 5 to our Financial Statements for additional discussion of our long-term debt.
Settlement and Merchant Reserve Activity
During the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, we had net settlement and merchant reserve activity of $(89.1) million and $(88.7) million, respectively, related to the cash collected, held on behalf, and paid to our merchants related to our payments services and the net change in deposits held on behalf of our merchants. These balances can significantly fluctuate between periods due to activity at the end of the period and the day in which the period ends.
See Note 2 to our Financial Statements for additional discussion of our settlement and merchant reserves.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
Our off-balance sheet arrangements are mainly limited to money transmitter bonds and performance bonds. These arrangements do not have a material impact and are not reasonably likely to have a material future impact to our financial condition, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures, or capital resources. See Note 8 to our Financial Statements for additional information on these guarantees.
Capital Resources
The following are the key items to consider in assessing our sources and uses of capital resources:
Current Sources of Capital Resources. Below are the key items to consider in assessing our current sources of capital resources:
•
Cash and Cash Equivalents. As of June 30, 2025, we had cash and cash equivalents of $145.9 million, of which approximately 58% was in U.S. dollars and held in the U.S. For the remainder of the monies denominated in foreign currencies and/or located outside the U.S., we do not anticipate any material amounts being unavailable for use in funding our business, but may face limitations on moving cash out of certain foreign jurisdictions due to currency controls and potential negative economic consequences.
•
Operating Cash Flows. As described in the Liquidity section above, we believe we have the ability to generate strong cash flows to fund our operating activities and act as a source of funds for our capital resource needs, although we may experience quarterly variations in our cash flows from operations related to the changes in our operating assets and liabilities.
•
Revolving Loan Facility. In March 2025, we entered into the 2025 Credit Agreement which replaced our 2021 Credit Agreement. The 2025 Credit Agreement consists of a $600.0 million revolving loan facility, our 2025 Revolver. As of June 30, 2025, we had $125.0 million outstanding on the 2025 Revolver, leaving $475.0 million available to us. Our long-term debt obligations are discussed in more detail in Note 5 to our Financial Statements.
Uses/Potential Uses of Capital Resources. Below are the key items to consider in assessing our uses/potential uses of capital resources:
•
Common Stock Repurchases and Cash Dividends. We have made repurchases of our common stock in the past under our Stock Repurchase Program. As of June 30, 2025, we had $111.3 million authorized for repurchase remaining under our Stock Repurchase Program, with all outstanding authorized repurchases to be completed by December 31, 2025. Our 2025 Credit Agreement places certain limitations on our ability to repurchase our common stock.
Under our Stock Repurchase Program, we may repurchase shares in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions, including through an accelerated stock repurchase plan or under a SEC Rule 10b5-1 plan. The actual timing and amount of share repurchases are dependent on the current market conditions and other business-related factors. Our common stock repurchases are discussed in more detail in Note 10 to our Financial Statements.
During the six months ended June 30, 2025, we repurchased approximately 428,000 shares of our common stock for $26.7 million (weighted-average price of $62.39 per share) under our Stock Repurchase Program.
Outside of our Stock Repurchase Program, during the six months ended June 30, 2025, we repurchased from our employees and then cancelled approximately 219,000 shares of our common stock for $13.8 million in connection with minimum tax withholding requirements resulting from the vesting of restricted common stock under our stock incentive plans.
During the six months ended June 30, 2025, our Board declared dividends totaling $18.6 million. Going forward, we expect to pay cash dividends each year in January, April, July, and October, with the amount and timing subject to our Board’s approval.
We expect to return in excess of $100.0 million to our shareholders through combined common stock repurchases and cash dividends in 2025.
•
Acquisitions. As a result of our previous acquisition activity, during the six months ended June 30, 2025 we made $0.3 million of deferred acquisition payments. Additionally, there are provisions for potential future earn-out payments of up to approximately $12 million for DGIT and $15.0 million for iCG tied to performance-based goals and a defined service period. The earn-out periods are through December 31, 2026 and June 3, 2027, respectively. During the six months ended June 30, 2025 we made earn-out payments of $5.1 million, which are included in our cash flows from operating activities. As of June 30, 2025, we have accrued $11.5 million related to potential future earn-out payments.
As part of our growth strategy, we are continually evaluating potential business and/or asset acquisitions and investments in market share expansion with our existing and potential new customers and expansion into verticals outside the global communications market.
•
Exit of Reseller Agreements. During 2023, we exited out of two reseller agreements that were acquired with the 2018 acquisition of Forte Payment Systems, Inc., at a total cost of $9.9 million, of which $1.8 million was paid in 2023 and $5.6 million was paid in 2024. We paid $1.3 million during the six months ended June 30, 2025, with the remaining $1.2 million to be paid in 2026.
•
Capital Expenditures. During the six months ended June 30, 2025, we spent $7.2 million on capital expenditures.
•
Financing Agreements. We have financing agreements for certain of our internal use software. As of June 30, 2025, we have $11.8 million related to these financing agreements included in current and non-current liabilities on our Balance Sheets. During the six months ended June 30, 2025, we have made payments of $3.6 million related to these financing agreements.
During the first quarter of 2025, we entered into a new agreement with our outsourced data center environment provider in which we elected to maintain our current data center environment through 2028. As a result, the lease classification of the data center environment was reassessed and accounted for as a finance lease. As a result, as of June 30, 2025, we have a finance lease right-of-use asset of $10.6 million. During the six months ended June 30, 2025, we have made finance lease payments of $0.9 million.
•
Long-Term Debt. As of June 30, 2025, our long-term debt consisted of the following: (i) 2025 Credit Agreement revolver borrowings of $125.0 million; and (ii) 2023 Convertible Notes in the principal aggregate amount of $425.0 million.
2025 Credit Agreement. The mandatory payments under our 2025 Credit Agreement for the next twelve months are the cash interest expense (based upon then-current interest rates) for the 2025 Revolver (assuming no further amounts are borrowed, and the amount is not paid down) of $7.3 million.
2023 Convertible Notes. The 2023 Convertible Notes are convertible at the option of the note holders before June 15, 2028 upon the occurrence of certain events, however, there are no scheduled conversion triggers over the next twelve months. As a result, we expect our required debt service cash outlay during the next twelve months for the 2023 Convertible Notes to be limited to interest payments of $16.5 million.
Our long-term debt obligations are discussed in more detail in Note 5 to our Financial Statements.
In summary, we expect to continue to have material needs for capital resources going forward, as noted above. We believe that our current cash and cash equivalents balances and our 2025 Revolver, together with cash expected to be generated in the future from our current operating activities, will be sufficient to meet our anticipated capital resource requirements for at least the next twelve months. We believe we could obtain additional capital through refinancing options or other debt sources which may be available to us if deemed appropriate.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Market risk is the potential loss arising from adverse changes in market rates and prices. As of June 30, 2025, we are exposed to various market risks, including changes in interest rates, fluctuations and changes in the market value of our cash equivalents and settlement and merchant reserve assets, and changes in foreign currency exchange rates. We have not historically entered into derivatives or other financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes.
Interest Rate Risk
Long-Term Debt. The interest rate on our 2023 Convertible Notes is fixed, and thus, as it relates to our convertible debt borrowings, we are not exposed to changes in interest rates.
The interest rates on our 2025 Credit Agreement are based upon an adjusted SOFR rate (including a 0.10% credit spread adjustment) plus an applicable margin, or an ABR plus an applicable margin. See Note 5 to our Financial Statements for further details related to our long-term debt.
A hypothetical adverse change of 10% in the June 30, 2025 adjusted SOFR rate would not have a material impact upon our results of operations.
Market Risk
Cash and Cash Equivalents. Our cash and cash equivalents as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024 were $145.9 million and $161.8 million, respectively. Certain of our cash balances are swept into overnight money market accounts on a daily basis, and at times, excess funds may be invested in low-risk institutional money market funds held at a major bank. We have minimal market risk for our cash and cash equivalents due to the relatively short maturities of the instruments.
Settlement and Merchant Reserve Assets. We are exposed to market risk associated with cash held on behalf of our merchants related to our payment processing services. As of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, we had $256.1 million and $343.2 million, respectively, of cash collected on behalf of our merchants. The cash is held in accounts with various major financial institutions in the U.S. and Canada in an amount equal to at least 100% of the aggregate amount owed to our merchants. These balances can significantly fluctuate between periods due to activity at the end of the period and the day in which the period ends. Certain settlement assets are swept into overnight money market accounts on a daily basis.
Long-Term Debt. The fair value of our convertible debt is exposed to market risk. We do not carry our convertible debt at fair value but present the fair value for disclosure purposes (see Note 2 to our Financial Statements). Generally, the fair value of our convertible debt is impacted by changes in interest rates and changes in the price and volatility of our common stock. As of June 30, 2025, the fair value of the 2023 Convertible Notes was estimated at $481.3 million, using quoted market prices.
Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk
Due to foreign operations around the world, our financial statements are exposed to foreign currency exchange risk due to the fluctuations in the value of currencies in which we conduct business. Our principal currency exposures include the British Pound, Euro, Australian Dollar, Saudi Riyal, and South African Rand. While we attempt to maximize natural hedges by incurring expenses in the same currency in which we contract revenue, the related expenses for that revenue could be in one or more differing currencies than the revenue stream. In particular, if the U.S. Dollar were to strengthen it would reduce the reported amount of our foreign-denominated cash, cash equivalents, trade receivables, revenue, and expenses that we translate into U.S. Dollars and report in our consolidated financial statements for, and as of the end of, each reporting period.
During the six months ended June 30, 2025, we generated approximately 88% of our revenue in U.S. dollars. We expect that, in the foreseeable future, we will continue to generate a very large percentage of our revenue in U.S. dollars.
We have analyzed our foreign currency exposure as of June 30, 2025. A hypothetical adverse change of 10% in the June 30, 2025 exchange rates would not have had a material impact upon our results of operations.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
(a) Disclosure Controls and Procedures
As required by Rule 13a-15(b), our management, including the Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), conducted an evaluation as of the end of the period covered by this report of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rule 13a-15(e). Based on that evaluation, the CEO and CFO concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this report.
(b) Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
As required by Rule 13a-15(d), our management, including the CEO and CFO, also conducted an evaluation of our internal control over financial reporting, as defined by Rule 13a-15(f), to determine whether any changes occurred during the quarter covered by this report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. Based on that evaluation, the CEO and CFO concluded that there has been no such change during the quarter covered by this report.

The terms and conditions set forth in this Schedule H shall also apply to any Deliverables with respect to which a Customer has purchased support and maintenance services from CSG.
When contacting the ISD, the Comcast caller should be prepared to provide detailed information regarding the Problem and the impact on the operation and the end user. In certain situations, Customer will need to provide CSG with adequate examples and details to assist with Problem identification. A Customer shall describe the urgency of the Problem when it is initially reported. Every Customer Problem is assigned a tracking number and CSG will assign a priority/severity level to all Problems reported by Customer in accordance with mutually agreed upon prioritization criteria. Problems are resolved according to their assigned priority/severity. CSG may, upon notice to Customer, change a designated priority/severity level of any Problem if, after investigation, the impact of the Problem on Customer’s business operations is determined to be more or less severe than the initial designation.
The priority/severity levels are described below:
•
CRITICAL (PRIORITY/SEVERITY 1): (i) [. Customer will receive CSG’s immediate response, prioritized problem resolution and restorative services at the highest possible level. Once control has been regained, efforts are then made to determine the “root cause” of the Problem.
Considering the nature of the cause, the Problem is adjusted to one of the other priorities and processed accordingly. While a Critical (Priority/Severity 1) Problem exists, the ISD shall provide [.
•
SERIOUS (PRIORITY/SEVERITY 2): [ The ISD’s goal is to ensure that control of the system is not jeopardized and to work with such Customer to gather information in order to resolve the issue. While a Serious (Priority/Severity 2) Problem exists, [.
•
OPERATIONAL (PRIORITY/SEVERITY 3): [ A user may be a CSR or the Customer’s operation staff running the system. CSG’s ISD goal is to [. This Priority/Severity level includes those issues not designated as Serious or Critical as described above.
Problem start time will begin upon Customer’s notification to CSG of a Problem or non-conformance. Problem resolution will occur at such time the Problem or non-conformance has been fixed. After such correction of the reported Problem or non-conformance, if Customer discovers that the Problem still exists, Customer will promptly notify CSG and CSG will re-open the original ticket and re-initiate efforts to provide resolution. Should the Customer wish to check the status of a Problem, such Customer may contact the ISD desk representatives or Customer’s CBU. In either case, the Customer should reference the tracking number.
During the Term of the Agreement, for each Priority/Severity 1 issue that CSG does not resolve within [ of problem start time, CSG will provide Customer with on-site user training credits sufficient for [ training days, as specified in Schedule F, on the use of the Software or Products at no charge, to be used at Customer’s sole discretion.
