Overall score reflects a tug-of-war between weak/inconsistent profitability (negative P/E and recent earnings deterioration) and improving outlook signals. The earnings call and guidance (higher EBITDA margin outlook, free-cash-flow conversion target, and strategic scale potential from Kubra) support the score, while technicals are moderately positive but not yet strong enough to outweigh the underlying earnings volatility.
Positive Factors
Consistent positive free cash flow
Repay’s operating and free cash flow have been positive and stepped up in 2024–2025, with free cash flow covering reported losses in several years. Durable cash generation supports reinvestment, debt servicing and potential funding of strategic deals, reducing long-term financing risk.
Negative Factors
Volatile, inconsistent profitability
Repay’s earnings have swung from modest profit to large losses and deep negative margins, including a significant 2025 loss. Persistent volatility and recent impairments weaken return profiles and increase the risk of future non‑cash charges, undermining long‑term shareholder value creation.

Repay Holdings Earnings Call Summary
Earnings Call Date:May 04, 2026
(Q1-2026)
| % Change Since: |
Next Earnings Date:Aug 12, 2026
Earnings Call Sentiment Positive
The call conveyed a generally positive operational and financial picture: revenue growth (4% Q1), strong Business Payments momentum (+18% YoY), high adjusted EBITDA margins (~43%) and raised full-year margin guidance. Management highlighted product innovation (AI, digital wallet), immediate accretion from a strategic investment, and a transformational Kubra acquisition expected to double revenue and expand scale. Key risks include near-term margin pressure from card network data program changes, modest Q1 free cash flow and active cash uses, integration and regulatory risk around Kubra, and elevated leverage near-term. Overall, the positives — including upgraded EBITDA outlook, clear growth guidance, and strategic scale from Kubra — outweigh the manageable lowlights.Positive Updates
Q1 Revenue Growth
Total Q1 revenue of $80.8 million, representing 4% year-over-year growth. Business Payments revenue +18% YoY; Consumer Payments revenue +4% YoY. Normalized revenue (ex-political media) increased ~16% in Q1.
Negative Updates
Near-Term Gross Profit Impact from Card Network Data Changes
Changes to enhanced data programs (Level 2/Level 3 / CEDP) produced an expected near-term negative impact on gross profit margins, primarily in Business Payments (AR). Management stated this impact was baked into 2026 guidance.

Company Guidance
Repay's 2026 guidance calls for revenue of $340–$346 million (10–12% reported growth; ~7–9% normalized ex–political media), adjusted EBITDA of $141–$146 million (about a 42% margin after a recent raise), and a free cash flow conversion target of 45% (net interest included); management expects $8–$10 million of incremental political media revenue (≈3 percentage points of reported growth) weighted to Q3–Q4. In Q1 the company reported $80.8 million of revenue (+4% YoY), adjusted EBITDA of $34.4 million (~43% margin), adjusted net income of $19.4 million ($0.22/share), and free cash flow of $5.4 million (16% conversion); quarter-end cash was ~$44 million, total debt included $288 million of 2029 convertible notes (2.875% coupon) plus a $110 million revolver draw, and net leverage was ~2.7x. Management expects the Kubra acquisition to close in Q2 (which would approximately double revenue based on 2025 Kubra results, reach >40% of U.S./Canadian households monthly and process >$130 billion of annual volume), to deliver cost and revenue synergies and free cash flow accretion, and to drive the combined company back below 3x net leverage within ~18 months of closing.Repay Holdings Financial Statement Overview
