  • Had we recognized service revenues on current quarter payments volume and other revenue components remained unchanged, it would have had minimal impact on our net revenue growth.
  1. Non-GAAPresults exclude equity investment gains and losses, amortization of acquired intangible assets for acquisitions in fiscal year 2019 and subsequent periods, and non-recurringacquisition-related costs.
  2. Adjusted financial results are on a constant-dollar basis and exclude the impact of the non-GAAP items and operating revenues and expenses of the acquired entities that were not in the entire quarter of the previous year and the incremental interest expense or forgone interest income as a result of funding the acquisition through debt or cash, respectively.

Non-GAAP and Adjusted Constant-Dollar Results Footnote

We consider non-GAAP measures useful to investors because they provide greater transparency into management´s view and assessment of the Company´s ongoing operating performance by removing items management believes are not representative of our continuing operations, as they may be non-recurring or have no cash impact, and may distort our longer-term operating trends. We believe these measures to be useful to enhance the comparability of our results from period to period and with our competitors, as well as to show ongoing results from operations distinct from items that are infrequent or not associated with the Company´s core operations. The Company does not, nor does it suggest investors should, consider such non-GAAP financial measures in isolation from, or as a substitute for, GAAP financial information.

We exclude the following to arrive at our Adjusted Constant-Dollar Financial Results:

  • non-GAAPimpacts of (refer to the financial tables in the earnings release for further details):
    • special items;
    • equity investment gains and losses;
    • amortization of acquired intangible assets for acquisitions in fiscal year 2019 and subsequent periods;
    • non-recurringacquisition-related costs;
  • impact of foreign currency to provide currency-neutral growth rates which management believes are a better reflection of the underlying performance of our business; and
  • impact of acquisitions, which include operating revenues and expenses of the acquired entities that were not in the entire quarter of the previous year and the incremental interest expense or forgone interest income as a result of funding the acquisition through debt or cash, respectively, which management believes enhances the comparability of our results. These amounts will be adjusted until we lap the quarter that the entity was acquired in, at which time there will be comparable results within each reported period.

Other Financial Results and Highlights

  • Visa continues to monitor the COVID-19 impact globally. During the quarter, several countries experienced a rise in cases and implemented restrictive measures, primarily impacting card spending. While cross-border spending did improve for the quarter, it remains depressed, led by travel spending, as the majority of borders remain closed. Card not present excluding travel in both domestic and cross-border volume continued to grow at elevated levels.
  • On November 20, 2020, Visa announced it completed the acquisition of YellowPepper. We believe this acquisition will accelerate the adoption of Visa's "network of networks" strategy in Latin America and the
    Caribbean by significantly reducing the time-to-market and cost for issuers and processors associated with accessing innovative and interoperable solutions, regardless of who owns or operates the payment rails.
  • On December 14, 2020, Visa repaid $3.0 billion of principal upon maturity of its senior notes.
  • On January 12, 2021, Visa and Plaid announced that the companies mutually terminated their merger agreement and agreed with the Department of Justice to dismiss the litigation related to the proposed transaction. The proposed transaction was first announced on January 13, 2020.

Operational Performance Data Footnote

Current quarter payments volume and other select metrics are provided in the operational performance data supplement in the earnings release to provide more recent operating data. Service revenues continue to be recognized based on payments volume in the prior quarter.

Total transactions represent payments and cash transactions as reported by Visa clients on their operating certificates. Processed transactions represent transactions involving cards and other form factors carrying the Visa, Visa Electron, Interlink, V PAY and PLUS cards processed on Visa's networks.

On occasion, reported payments volume, transaction and card information may be updated to reflect revised client submissions or other adjustments. Prior-period updates, other than the change to the payments volume definition, are not material. Figures may not recalculate exactly due to rounding. Percentage changes and totals are calculated based on unrounded numbers. Constant-dollar growth rates exclude the impact of foreign currency fluctuations against the U.S. dollar in measuring performance.

This presentation contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 that relate to, among other things, the impact on our underlying business drivers and other volume and transaction trends as a result of COVID-19, our future operations, prospects, developments, strategies and business growth. Forward-looking statements generally are identified by words such as "anticipates," "estimates," "expects," "intends," "may," "projects," "outlook," "could," "should," "will," "continue" and other similar expressions. All statements other than statements of historical fact could be forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date they are made, are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to certain risks, uncertainties and other factors, many of which are beyond our control and are difficult to predict.

Actual results could differ materially from those expressed in, or implied by, our forward-looking statements due to a variety of factors, including, but not limited to:

  • impact of global economic, political, market, health and social events or conditions, including the impact of COVID-19;
  • increased oversight and regulation of the global payments industry and our business;
  • impact of government-imposed obligations and/or restrictions on international payment systems;
  • outcome of tax, litigation and governmental investigation matters;
  • increasingly intense competition in the payments industry, including competition for our clients and merchants;
  • proliferation and continuous evolution of new technologies and business models;
  • our ability to maintain relationships with our clients, acquirers, processors, merchants and other third parties;
  • brand or reputational damage;
  • exposure to loss or illiquidity due to settlement guarantees;
  • the impact of the United Kingdom's withdrawal from the European Union;
  • a disruption, failure, breach or cyber-attack of our networks or systems;
  • risks, uncertainties and the failure to achieve the anticipated benefits with respect to our acquisitions and other strategic investments; and
  • other factors described in our filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, including our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2020, and our subsequent reports on Forms 10-Q and 8-K.

Except as required by law, we do not intend to update or revise any forward-looking statements as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
