Insights
The Q4 and FY2024 results present a mixed but transformative picture for i3 Verticals. Key highlights include:
Revenue Growth: Q4 revenue increased by 3.9% to $60.9 million, while full-year revenue saw modest growth of 1.4% to $229.9 million.
Profitability Improvement: Q4 net income from continuing operations reached $7.0 million, a significant turnaround from last year’s $1.2 million loss. The full-year net loss narrowed to $13.3 million from $23.7 million.
Strategic Transformation: The sale of the merchant services business marks a pivotal shift toward becoming a focused vertical market software provider. The 7.5% growth in Annualized Recurring Revenue to $188.2 million indicates strong underlying business momentum.
The company’s FY2025 outlook, projecting revenue of $243-263 million and improved margins, suggests confidence in their streamlined business model and growth strategy.
The strategic repositioning of i3 Verticals presents compelling market opportunities:
Recurring Revenue Focus: The 7.5% ARR growth demonstrates strong product-market fit in the software-as-a-service space. This shift from transaction-based to recurring revenue models typically commands higher valuation multiples.
Margin Expansion: The projected 100+ basis points margin improvement for FY2025 suggests operational efficiency gains. The significant reduction in cash interest expense from $28.1 million to an expected $1-2 million will directly boost profitability.
The appointment of a new Chief Product Officer with extensive experience signals a commitment to product-led growth, which could accelerate market penetration and customer adoption rates.

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

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.

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.

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.

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.
