and timing in developing and introducing new services and expanding our
business; statements about the benefits of our acquisitions, including
future financial and operating results, the combined company’s plans,
objectives, expectations and intentions, and the successful integration

You can sometimes identify forward-looking statements by our use of the
words “believes,” “anticipates,” “expects,” “intends,” “plan,”
“forecast,” “guidance” and similar expressions. For these statements, we
claim the protection of the safe harbor for forward-looking statements
contained in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.
Although we believe that the plans and expectations reflected in or
suggested by our forward-looking statements are reasonable, those
statements are based on a number of assumptions, estimates, projections
or plans that are inherently subject to significant risks, uncertainties
and contingencies, many of which are beyond our control, cannot be
foreseen and reflect future business decisions that are subject to
change. Accordingly, we cannot guarantee you that our plans and
expectations will be achieved. Our actual revenues, revenue growth rates
and margins, other results of operations and shareholder values could
differ materially from those anticipated in our forward-looking
statements as a result of many known and unknown factors, many of which
are beyond our ability to predict or control. Important factors that may
cause actual events or results to differ materially from those
anticipated by such forward-looking statements include our ability to
safeguard our data; increased competition from larger companies and
non-traditional competitors; our ability to update our services in a
timely manner; our ability to maintain Visa and Mastercard registration
and financial institution sponsorship; our reliance on financial
institutions to provide clearing services in connection with our
settlement activities; our potential failure to comply with card network
requirements; potential systems interruptions or failures; software
defects or undetected errors; increased attrition of merchants, referral
partners or independent sales organizations; our ability to increase our
share of existing markets and expand into new markets; development of
market trends and technologies; a decline in the use of cards for
payment generally; unanticipated increases in chargeback liability;
increases in credit card network fees; changes in laws, regulations or
network rules or interpretations thereof; foreign currency exchange and
interest rate risks; political, economic and regulatory changes in the
foreign countries in which we operate; future performance, integration
and conversion of acquired operations, including without limitation
difficulties and delays in integrating or fully realizing cost savings
and other benefits of our acquisitions at all or within the expected
time period; fully realizing anticipated annual interest expense savings
from refinancing our corporate debt facilities; our loss of key
personnel and other risk factors presented in Item 1- Risk Factors of
our Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017 and any
subsequent SEC filings, which we advise you to review. These cautionary
statements qualify all of our forward-looking statements, and you are
cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking

(1) Global Payments adopted Accounting Standards Codification
Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”) on
January 1, 2018. The new accounting standard changed the presentation of
certain amounts that we pay to third parties, including payment
networks. This change in presentation affected our reported GAAP
revenues and operating expenses by the same amount and had no effect on
operating income. Also, ASC 606 changed the presentation of revenue for
our gaming cash advance solutions and had a de minimis impact on revenue
from our European business. For our gaming cash advance solutions,
certain amounts we previously presented as operating expenses are now
recognized as a reduction of revenue under GAAP. As a result of adopting
ASC 606, results for 2018 and 2017 revenues and operating expenses are
not comparable, thus the changes from the prior year are not meaningful.
