Evertec (NYSE:EVTC – Get Free Report) issued its quarterly earnings results on Tuesday. The business services provider reported $1.07 earnings per share for the quarter, topping analysts’ consensus estimates of $0.98 by $0.09, FiscalAI reports. The company had revenue of $282.99 million during the quarter, compared to the consensus estimate of $272.94 million. Evertec had a net margin of 9.00% and a return on equity of 32.87%. The firm’s quarterly revenue was up 23.8% on a year-over-year basis. During the same quarter in the prior year, the firm posted $0.92 EPS.
Here are the key takeaways from Evertec’s conference call:
- Third-quarter results were strong: revenue rose 24% to $283 million, adjusted EBITDA increased 19% to $110 million, and adjusted EPS grew 15% to $1.07, driven by acquisitions, organic growth and favorable foreign exchange.
- EVERTEC raised its 2026 reported revenue outlook to $1.088 billion–$1.096 billion and expects adjusted EPS growth of 10.5%–12.7%; the company cited solid operating momentum, share repurchases and a higher-than-expected R&D tax credit.
- Latin America remains the primary growth engine. Latin America Payments and Solutions revenue increased 59% reported, or 52% in constant currency, with broad-based organic growth, contributions from Dimensa and Tecnobank, and market-share gains in Brazil, Chile and other markets.
- Management highlighted significant long-term opportunities from digital payment adoption, financial-services modernization, AI productivity initiatives and the Transbank contract, whose contribution is expected to begin late in the second half of 2027 and ramp more meaningfully in 2028.
- Profitability and near-term comparisons face pressure from higher interest expense, depreciation and amortization, non-controlling interest and an increasingly Latin America-heavy mix; Puerto Rico’s vehicle-fine amnesty benefit will not recur, and the expected lower pricing on a renewed EBT relationship will temper 2027 growth.
