NEWARK, N.J., Feb. 15, 2023 — National Retail Solutions (NRS), operator of the leading point-of-sale (POS) platform for independent retailers, today announced the expansion of its network to Canada.

“NRS has been focused exclusively on the U.S. market,” said Elie Y. Katz, CEO of NRS. “We developed a powerful POS platform that enables our domestic independent retail partners to operate more profitably and compete more effectively against large retail chains. Now, we are very excited to bring these advantages to retailers in Canada.”

The NRS platform provides independent retailers, including convenience, tobacco, and liquor stores, with a purpose-built, integrated hardware and software solution. Store management tools include a price book, inventory management solutions, sales reports and statistics, vendor payments, remote operations management through the My NRS Store mobile app, in-store promotions, e-commerce, a customer loyalty program, and more.

NRS will also offer its Canadian retail partners NRS Pay, a straightforward, low-cost credit card processing service. NRS Pay is free of long-term contracts, termination costs, and the pernicious hidden fees often charged by other credit card payment processors.

Eli Korn, NRS’ COO, commented, “The Canadian market, with its significant, heterogeneous immigrant population, is a natural stepping stone as we begin to build out our capabilities for international expansion. We expect that terminals operated by retailers in markets outside the U.S. will gradually become a significant contributor to NRS’s long-term growth.”

NRS is currently deploying its POS terminals to select retailers in Toronto and plans to expand to other Canadian cities in the coming months.

Same-store sales at NRS retailers in January 2023 were robust, increasing 11.5% compared to January 2022 but decreased 6.0% compared to December 2022 on seasonal factors

NEWARK, N.J., Feb. 06, 2023 — NRSInsights, a provider of sales data and analytics drawn from retail transactions processed through the National Retail Solutions (NRS) point-of-sale (POS) platform, today announced comparative same-store sales results for January 2023.

As of January 31, 2023, the NRS retail network comprised approximately 22,000 terminals scanning purchases at independent retailers including bodegas, convenience stores, liquor stores, grocers, and tobacco and sundries sellers nationwide, predominantly serving urban consumers.

Retail Same-Store Sales Highlights
(Sequential comparisons are influenced by seasonal factors)

• Same-store sales increased 11.5% from a year earlier (January 2022) but decreased 6.0% compared to December 2022;
• Same-store sales in the preceding month (December 2022) had increased 9.8% compared to the year-ago month (December 2021) and 6.6% compared to the previous month, (November 2022);
• For the three months ended January 31, 2023, same-store sales increased 9.9% compared to the three months ended January 31, 2022;
• The number of items sold during January 2023 increased 7.2% compared to January 2022 2021 but decreased 2.5% compared to December 2022;
• The average number of transactions per store in January 2023 increased 8.8% compared to January 2022 but decreased 0.9% compared to December 2022;
• A dollar-weighted average of prices for the top 500 items purchased in January 2023 increased 4.0% year over year, a decrease compared to the 5.7% year-over-year increase in December 2022 compared to December 2021.

Commentary from Suzy Silliman (SVP, Data Strategy and Sales at NRS)

“NRS same-store sales for January increased markedly compared to a year ago, jumping 11.5% while decreasing from December in line with expected seasonal trends. Meanwhile, in good news for consumers, the year-over-year rate of price increases of the most popular goods moderated somewhat compared to recent months. Notwithstanding the decreasing inflationary pressures, extreme year-over-year increases in the prices of certain essential consumer staples including eggs, infant formula, and tortillas suggest that household budgets continue to be strongly impacted by rising prices.”

Retail Trade Comparative Data

The table below provides historical comparative data with the U.S. Commerce Department’s Advance Monthly Retail Trade data excluding food service:

Over the prior 12 months, the NRS same-store retail sales data has exhibited a statistically significant correlation with the US Commerce Department’s Advance Monthly Retail Trade data excluding food services (r=.863, p = 0.000298)

The NRSInsights data have not been adjusted to reflect inflation, demographic distributions, seasonal buying patterns, item substitution, or other factors that may facilitate comparisons to other periods, to other same-store retail sales data, or to the U.S. Commerce Department’s retail data.

NRSInsights Reports

The NRSInsights monthly Same-Store Retail Sales Reports are intended to provide timely topline data reflective of sales at NRS’ network of independent, predominantly urban, retail stores.

Same-store data comparisons of January 2023 with January 2022 are derived from approximately 120 million transactions processed through the 12,615 stores on the NRS network that scanned transactions in both months. Same-store data comparisons of January 2023 data with December 2022 data are derived from approximately 169 million transactions processed through 18,604 stores.

Same-store data comparisons for the three months ended January 31, 2023 with the year ago three months are derived from approximately 343 million transactions in both quarters.

NRS POS Network

NRS operates the largest POS network for independent retailers in the U.S., aggregating data from approximately 22,000 active POS terminals operating in approximately 19,500 independent retail stores. Its platform predominantly serves urban, small-format, independent, retail stores including convenience stores, bodegas, liquor stores, grocers, and tobacco and sundries sellers. The network includes retailers in all 50 states and in 193 of the 210 designated market areas (DMAs) in the U.S. Over the past twelve months, NRS’ POS terminals processed $13.6 billion in sales through approximately 976 million transactions.

Same-store sales at NRS retailers in December 2022 increased 9.8% compared to December 2021 and 6.6% compared to November 2022

NEWARK, N.J., Jan. 06, 2023 — NRSInsights, a provider of sales data and analytics drawn from retail transactions processed through the National Retail Solutions (NRS) point-of-sale (POS) platform, today announced comparative same-store sales results for December 2022.

As of December 31, 2022, the NRS retail network comprised approximately 22,000 terminals scanning purchases at independent retailers including bodegas, convenience stores, liquor stores, grocers, and tobacco and sundries sellers nationwide, predominantly serving urban consumers.

Retail Same-Store Sales Highlights for December 2022

(Sequential comparisons are influenced by seasonal factors)

• Same-store sales increased 9.8% from a year earlier (December 2021) and 6.6% compared to November 2022;
• Same-store sales in the preceding month (November 2022) had increased 11.4% compared to the year-ago month (November 2021) but had decreased 4.2% compared to the previous month, (October 2022);
• For the full year 2022, same-store sales increased 8.2% compared to 2021;
• For the three months ended December 31, 2022, same-store sales increased 9.5% compared to the fourth quarter of 2021;
• The number of items sold during December 2022 increased 8.0% compared to November 2021 and increased 4.7% compared to November 2022;
• The average number of transactions per store in December 2022 increased 3.7% compared to December 2021 and increased 0.8% compared to November 2022;
• A dollar-weighted average of prices for the top 500 items purchased in December 2022 increased 5.7% year over year, an increase compared to the 4.5% year-over-year increase in November 2022.

Commentary from Suzy Silliman (SVP, Data Strategy and Sales at NRS)

“NRS same-store sales for December increased significantly from both December a year ago and from November’s levels, as did costs for most popular items. Across our data, there was little to suggest that consumer demand or inflationary momentum has cooled, although the rate of price increases remains below the headline consumer price index inflation rate.

“Sales growth, both year over year and sequentially, was led by holiday entertaining and party categories. Alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages, mixers, salty and sweet snacks and baking categories generated robust increases whether gauged by dollars, baskets or units sold. Sales of prepared cocktails surged impressively, but their expansion did not come at the expense of spirits, seltzer, beer, wine, or other beverage categories, all of which continued to increase from year-ago levels.”

NEWARK, NJ, Dec. 05, 2022 — IDT Corporation (NYSE: IDT), a global provider of fintech, cloud communications, and traditional communications services, today reported results for the first quarter of its fiscal year 2023, the three months ended October 31, 2022.

FIRST QUARTER FISCAL YEAR 2023 HIGHLIGHTS

(Throughout this release, unless otherwise noted, results for the first quarter of fiscal year 2023 (1Q23) are compared to the first quarter of fiscal year 2022 (1Q22). All earnings per share (EPS) and other ‘per share’ results are per diluted share unless otherwise noted.

Effective August 1, 2022, IDT revised its reportable business segments. Results of a new NRS segment were previously included in the Fintech segment and certain lines of business were reclassified to the Fintech segment from the Traditional Communications segment. Comparative segment information has been reclassified and restated in all periods presented.)

• National Retail Solutions (NRS) recurring revenue^* increased 107% to $17.8 million. Active POS terminals increased by approximately 1,400 during 1Q23 to approximately 20,800 at the end of the quarter;
• BOSS Money remittance revenue increased 45% to $17.6 million. Transaction volume increased by 35% to 2.87 million;
• net2phone increased subscription revenue^* 33% to $15.5 million and achieved positive Adjusted EBITDA. Seats served increased by 18,000 sequentially to end 1Q23 with approximately 309,000;
• Consolidated revenue decreased 13% to $322 million, mostly as a result of a 20% decrease in the Traditional Communications segment’s revenue;
• Consolidated income from operations increased 47% to $20.2 million;
• Net income attributable to IDT increased to $11.0 million from a net loss of $2.5 million. The loss in the year-ago quarter included an unrealized $12.5 million loss on the mark-to-market value of the Company’s investment in Rafael Holdings, Inc.’s Class B common stock;
• Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA increased 33% to $24.3 million; and
• EPS increased to $0.43 from a loss per share of $0.10. Non-GAAP EPS increased to $0.43 from a loss per share of $0.08;
• During 1Q23, IDT repurchased 203,436 shares of its Class B common stock in the open market for approximately $5 million.

Adjusted EBITDA, Non-GAAP net income (loss), and Non-GAAP EPS are Non-GAAP measures intended to provide useful information that supplements IDT’s or the relevant segment’s results in accordance with GAAP. Please refer to the Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures later in this release for an explanation of these terms and their respective reconciliations to the most directly comparable GAAP measure. Please see the final page of this release for the explanation of asterisked key performance metrics.

REMARKS BY SHMUEL JONAS, CEO

“In the first quarter, we achieved our second consecutive quarter of record Adjusted EBITDA. Our rapidly expanding NRS, BOSS Money and net2phone businesses contributed twenty-five percent of our consolidated Adjusted EBITDA in the period, and their continued expansion positions us for significantly enhanced profitability in the coming years.

“We are focused on improving the bottom-line performance of all our businesses. And this quarter both net2phone and the Fintech segment, which now primarily tracks the performance of our BOSS Money remittance business, turned the corner and generated positive Adjusted EBITDA. NRS also had another very good quarter, more than tripling its Adjusted EBITDA contribution compared to the year-ago quarter.”

CONSOLIDATED RESULTS

RESULTS BY SEGMENT

A table later in this release provides additional quarterly results by segment including those impacted by the reclassification referred to earlier in this release: NRS, Fintech, and Traditional Communications. Results for the net2phone segment were not impacted by the reclassification.

NRS

National Retail Solutions (NRS) is an operator of a nationwide point-of-sale (POS) network providing independent retailers with store management software, and with credit, debit, and other electronic payment processing as well as ancillary merchant services. NRS’ POS platform provides marketers with digital out-of-home (DOOH) advertising and transaction data.

In 1Q23 and 1Q22, NRS contributed 6.0% and 2.7% of IDT’s consolidated revenue, respectively.

NRS Take-Aways:

• The year-over-year increases in NRS’ revenue and income from operations reflect increases in high-margin recurring revenue categories led by Advertising & Data, as well as the significant expansion of the NRS POS network.
• In November 2022, NRS announced a partnership with Uber Technologies, Inc., enabling NRS retailers to offer same-day delivery to their customers by utilizing Uber Direct. Deliveries will be provided at no cost to the NRS retailer when the purchases are made through the BR Club app.

Fintech

The Fintech segment comprises BOSS Money, a provider of international money remittances as well as other, significantly smaller financial services businesses.

In 1Q23 and 1Q22, the Fintech segment contributed 6.2% and 3.8% of IDT’s consolidated revenue, respectively.

Fintech Take-Aways:

• BOSS Money transaction volumes increased 35% in 1Q23 to 2.87 million from 2.13 million in 1Q22.
• BOSS Money revenue increased 45% in 1Q23 to $17.6 million from $12.1 million in 1Q22 as a result of the increase in transaction volumes and average revenue per transaction.
• BOSS Money average revenue per transaction* increased 7.5% in 1Q23 to $6.11 from $5.69 in 1Q22. The increase was driven by the development and introduction of new platform functionalities enabling more flexible and granular pricing strategies.
• Fintech income from operations increased to $1.5 million in 1Q23 from a loss from operations of $1.6 million in 1Q22. The increase reflects in part the impacts of both temporary, favorable FX market conditions in certain US/Africa corridors and a gain of $1.6 million from the write-off of a portion of a prior period acquisition-related contingent consideration payment obligation during 1Q23.
• Adjusted EBITDA increased to $0.5 million from an Adjusted EBITDA loss of $1.0 million in 1Q22.
• In September, BOSS Money initiated a collaboration with United Bank for Africa (UBA) to enable customers to send U.S. dollars for direct deposit at any of the approximately 20 million UBA accounts in Nigeria.

net2phone

In 1Q23 and 1Q22, the net2phone segment accounted for 5.3% and 3.5% of IDT’s consolidated revenue, respectively.

net2phone Take–aways:

• Total seats on October 31, 2022 increased by 6% to 309,000 from 291,000 on July 31, 2022. Seats increased 26% from 244,000 a year earlier. The year-over-year increase included the addition of approximately 8,000 CCaaS seats.
• Subscription revenue increased 33% in 1Q23 to $15.5 million from $11.7 million in 1Q22, led by particularly strong growth in the U.S. market. Subscription revenue per seat continued to increase in both South and North America – the former despite the strengthening of the U.S. dollar relative to most South American currencies – as net2phone focused on higher-value customers and channel partners.
• Loss from operations in 1Q23 decreased to $1.1 million from a loss of $4.2 million in 1Q22, and Adjusted EBITDA was $296 thousand compared to negative Adjusted EBITDA of $2.9 million. The improvements reflect better unit economics as the business scales and revenue increases, a tight focus on cost control, and more focused investment in customer acquisition on markets with the highest returns on investment.
• In August 2022, net2phone was named a UCaaS growth and innovation leader in Latin America and the Caribbean by Frost & Sullivan, which placed net2phone in the top quadrant of the Frost Radar^TM: Unified Communications as a Service Market in Latin America and the Caribbean, 2022.

Traditional Communications

In 1Q23 and 1Q22, the Traditional Communications segment accounted for 82.5% and 90.0% of IDT’s consolidated revenue, respectively.

Traditional Communications Take–Aways:

• Mobile Top-Up (MTU) revenue decreased 15% in 1Q23 to $109.0 million from $128.5 million in 1Q22. The decrease reflected the industry-wide deterioration in a key corridor that was particularly impactful in the wholesale and retail channels. Excluding this corridor, MTU revenue would have increased 4.7% year-over-year.
• BOSS Revolution Calling revenue decreased 19% in 1Q23 to $86.3 million from $106.0 million in 1Q22. The decrease reflects the long-standing industry-wide decline in the paid minute calling markets that paused during the initial stages of the COVID pandemic but have since accelerated.
• IDT Global’s carrier services revenue decreased 31% in 1Q23 to $61.6 million from $89.2 million in 1Q22.

REPORTABLE BUSINESS SEGMENTS – QUARTERLY RESULTS

The table below provides additional quarterly results for IDT’s segments including those impacted by the reclassification of certain lines of business within NRS, Fintech, and Traditional Communications.

NOTES ON FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Consolidated results for all periods presented include corporate overhead. Corporate G&A expense in 1Q23 decreased to $1.9 million from $2.0 million in 1Q22.

As of October 31, 2022, IDT held $137.1 million in cash, cash equivalents, debt securities, and current equity investments. Current assets totaled $361.1 million and current liabilities totaled $292.8 million. IDT had no outstanding debt at quarter end.

Generally, a non-GAAP measure is a numerical measure of a company’s performance, financial position, or cash flows that either excludes or includes amounts that are not normally excluded or included in the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP.

IDT’s measure of non-GAAP net income (loss) starts with net income (loss) in accordance with GAAP and adds severance expense, stock-based compensation, and other operating expense, and deducts other operating gains. These additions and subtractions are non-cash and/or non-routine items in the relevant fiscal 2023 and fiscal 2022 periods.

IDT’s measure of non-GAAP EPS is calculated by dividing non-GAAP net income (loss) by the diluted weighted-average shares.

Management believes that IDT’s Adjusted EBITDA, non-GAAP net income (loss), and non-GAAP EPS are measures which provide useful information to both management and investors by excluding certain expenses and non-routine gains and losses that may not be indicative of IDT’s or the relevant segment’s core operating results. Management uses Adjusted EBITDA, among other measures, as a relevant indicator of core operational strengths in its financial and operational decision making. In addition, management uses Adjusted EBITDA, non-GAAP net income (loss), and non-GAAP EPS to evaluate operating performance in relation to IDT’s competitors. Disclosure of these financial measures may be useful to investors in evaluating performance and allows for greater transparency to the underlying supplemental information used by management in its financial and operational decision-making. In addition, IDT has historically reported similar financial measures and believes such measures are commonly used by readers of financial information in assessing performance, therefore the inclusion of comparative numbers provides consistency in financial reporting.

Management refers to Adjusted EBITDA, as well as the GAAP measures income (loss) from operations and net income (loss), on a segment and/or consolidated level to facilitate internal and external comparisons to the segments’ and IDT’s historical operating results, in making operating decisions, for budget and planning purposes, and to form the basis upon which management is compensated.

While depreciation and amortization are considered operating costs under GAAP, these expenses primarily represent the non-cash current period allocation of costs associated with long-lived assets acquired or capitalized in prior periods. IDT’s Adjusted EBITDA, which is exclusive of depreciation and amortization, is a useful indicator of its current performance.

Severance expense is excluded from the calculation of Adjusted EBITDA, non-GAAP net income (loss), and non-GAAP EPS. Severance expense is reflective of decisions made by management in each period regarding the aspects of IDT’s and its segments’ businesses to be focused on in light of changing market realities and other factors. While there may be similar charges in other periods, the nature and magnitude of these charges can fluctuate markedly and do not reflect the performance of IDT’s core and continuing operations.

Other operating gain (expense), net, which is a component of income (loss) from operations, is excluded from the calculation of Adjusted EBITDA, non-GAAP net income (loss), and non-GAAP EPS. Other operating gain (expense), net includes a gain from the write-off of a contingent consideration liability, legal fees net of insurance claims related to Straight Path Communications Inc.’s stockholders’ putative class action and derivative complaint, and expense for the indemnification of a net2phone cable telephony customer related to patent infringement claims brought against the customer. From time-to-time, IDT may have gains or incur costs related to non-routine legal and other matters, however, these various items generally do not occur each quarter. IDT believes the gain and losses from these non-routine matters are not components of IDT’s or the relevant segment’s core operating results.

Stock-based compensation recognized by IDT and other companies may not be comparable because of the variety of types of awards as well as the various valuation methodologies and subjective assumptions that are permitted under GAAP. Stock-based compensation is excluded from IDT’s calculation of non-GAAP net income (loss) and non-GAAP EPS because management believes this allows investors to make more meaningful comparisons of the operating results per share of IDT’s core business with the results of other companies. However, stock-based compensation will continue to be a significant expense for IDT for the foreseeable future and an important part of employees’ compensation that impacts their performance.

Adjusted EBITDA, non-GAAP net income (loss), and non-GAAP EPS should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for, or superior to, income (loss) from operations, cash flow from operating activities, net income (loss), basic and diluted earnings per share or other measures of liquidity and financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. In addition, IDT’s measurements of Adjusted EBITDA, non-GAAP net income (loss), and non-GAAP EPS may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

Following are reconciliations of Adjusted EBITDA, non-GAAP net income (loss), and non-GAAP EPS to the most directly comparable GAAP measure, which are, (a) for Adjusted EBITDA, income (loss) from operations for IDT’s reportable segments and net income (loss) for IDT on a consolidated basis, (b) for non-GAAP net income (loss), net income (loss), and (c) for non-GAAP EPS, diluted earnings (loss) per share.

*Explanation of Key Performance Metrics

NRS’ Monthly Average Recurring Revenue per Terminal is a financial metric. Monthly Average Recurring Revenue per Terminal is calculated by dividing NRS’ recurring revenue by the average number of active POS terminals during the period. NRS’ recurring revenue is NRS’ revenue in accordance with GAAP excluding revenue from POS terminal sales. The average number of active POS terminals is calculated by adding the beginning and ending number of active POS terminals during the period and dividing by two. NRS’ recurring revenue divided by the average number of active POS terminals is divided by three when the period is a fiscal quarter. Monthly Average Recurring Revenue per Terminal is useful for comparisons of NRS’ revenue per customer to prior periods and to competitors and others in the market, as well as for forecasting future revenue from the customer base.

BOSS Money’s Average Revenue per Transaction is also a financial metric. Average Revenue per Transaction is calculated by dividing BOSS Money’s revenue in accordance with GAAP by the number of transactions during the period. Average Revenue per Transaction is useful for comparisons of BOSS Money’s revenue per transaction to prior periods and to competitors and others in the market, as well as for forecasting future revenue based on transaction trends.

net2phone’s subscription revenue is its revenue in accordance with GAAP excluding its equipment revenue and revenue generated by a legacy SIP trunking offering in Brazil. net2phone’s cloud communications offerings are priced on a per-seat basis, with customers paying based on the number of users in their organization. The number of seats served and subscription revenue trends and comparisons between periods are used in the analysis of net2phone’s revenues and direct cost of revenues are strong indications of the top-line growth and performance of the business.
