Corpay Launches Corpay Complete as Disconnected Finance Systems Drain Time and Budget
LONDON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Corpay, the global S&P500 corporate payments company trusted by hundreds of thousands of businesses worldwide, has launched Corpay Complete in the UK, a powerful, all-in-one platform designed to streamline finance operations, automate payments, and deliver real-time control over costs. Already trusted by finance teams across the US, the platform has been adapted for the complexity of UK finance, and unifies account payable processes & workflow, expense management & oversight, and domestic & international payments. With expert local support and a human-first approach, Corpay Complete turns cutting-edge technology into a true finance partnership. The launch comes as recent data highlights that UK finance leaders are under growing pressure to do more with less – less resource, less time, less budget. According to Deloitte, 63% of UK CFOs now rank cost control as their highest business priority. In addition, just 36% of UK CFOs say that they have real-time visibility over their cash flow, while one in three UK businesses has fallen victim to invoice fraud – often due to manual processes and weak controls. This is echoed globally as, more than half of finance professionals are still spending over 10 hours per week processing invoices. Yet despite the time drain, only 5% of finance teams are fully automated, according to the Institution of Financial Operations Leadership's 2024 member survey – which includes responses from UK-based CFOs. The result is a clear disconnect between day-to-day workload and digital maturity. Fragmented systems make it worse, with 67% of global CFOs saying that disconnected tools are a barrier to meaningful automation and cost efficiency. Built to meet the demands of modern finance teams, Corpay Complete helps UK businesses save time, cut costs, and take control over fragmented finance operations, by unifying accounts payable processes & workflow, expense management and both domestic & international payments into one intelligent platform. With the ability to integrate with existing accounting software and ERP systems, Corpay Complete automates and digitises the entire finance lifecycle – from supplier onboarding and purchase order creation to invoice capture, receipt matching, expense management and payment approvals. With customisable approval flows and a mobile-first interface, the platform eliminates administrative friction, reduces the risk of errors and fraud, and frees finance teams to focus on strategic priorities. By accelerating approvals, businesses can strengthen supplier relationships and take advantage of early payment discounts to improve working capital. The platform also enhances corporate spend control through integrated card programmes - for travel & entertainment and purchasing spend - and secure, single-use virtual cards**, helping reduce leakage and unlock potential cashback of up to 1%* on eligible payments. For organisations with international payment needs, Corpay's market-leading FX capabilities enable fast, transparent cross-border payments to over 200 countries in 145 currencies – delivered with competitive exchange rates and no hidden fees. Corpay Complete provides finance leaders with the clarity and oversight they need, with a single platform to track, approve, and manage payments in real time – whether at their desk or on the move via the Corpay mobile app. Speaking on the launch of Corpay Complete, Alan King, Group President at Corpay, said ' Corpay has been at the forefront of business payments in the US and globally – supporting thousands of businesses with smart, scalable finance solutions. Now, we're extending that expertise to the UK with Corpay Complete, our all-in-one platform built specifically for today's finance leaders.' King added: 'The timing couldn't be more critical. Between the acceleration of digitisation, the rise of embedded finance, and widening skills gaps in finance teams, UK businesses are under growing pressure to do more with less. Corpay Complete is purpose-built to give greater control and real-time visibility to financial controllers – a solution that unifies accounts payable, FX, and expenses, helping finance teams work smarter, move faster, and manage risk with confidence.' Corpay supports over 800,000 corporate clients worldwide, processing $320 billion in payments annually on their behalf, and providing them with over $700 million in rebates on their business spend. As one of the largest FX providers in the UK, Corpay Cross Border Solutions also trades more than $320 billion in foreign exchange each year – giving businesses access to much more competitive rates than those offered by mainstream banks – all processed via a trusted global payment infrastructure. The launch of Corpay Complete in the UK marks a major step towards helping companies simplify their finance operations and payments execution – bringing together fragmented and complex processes into a single, intelligent and automated platform that takes advantage of Corpay's global payments & FX expertise. Recognised by Forbes as one of the world's most innovative companies and by TIME as one of the world's best, Corpay brings entrepreneurial energy, proven scale, and deep industry expertise to the global payments space. With a track record of simplifying complex payment processes for businesses worldwide, Corpay is now setting its sights on transforming the way UK finance teams operate – starting with Corpay Complete.

The Company reported adjusted pre-tax, pre-provision net revenue* of $58.6 million for the second quarter of 2025, reflecting increases of 12.5% and 12.0% from $52.1 million and $52.4 million in the previous quarter and second quarter of last year, respectively. The Company ended the second quarter of 2025 with loans held for investment ('HFI') of $9.87 billion compared to $9.77 billion at the end of the previous quarter, a 4.22% annualized increase, and $9.31 billion at the end of the second quarter of last year, a 6.07% increase.

Net interest margin ('NIM') was 3.68% for the second quarter of 2025, compared to 3.55% in the prior quarter and 3.57% in the second quarter of 2024. The Company elected to sell $266.5 million of available-for-sale debt securities in June resulting in a $60.5 million GAAP loss which has been adjusted from earnings in the Company's computations of adjusted results and performance measures for the second quarter. The Company ended the quarter with book value per common share of $35.17 and tangible book value per common share* of $29.78. President and Chief Executive Officer, Christopher T. Holmes stated, 'The Company delivered solid operating results in the second quarter with growth in both loans and customer deposits, a healthy net interest margin and managed expense growth, along with strong capital and liquidity positions. Additionally, we repositioned our balance sheet by selling low-yielding securities which will further enhance both our liquidity and margin moving forward.

(a) The effective tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2025, reflects a $60.5 million loss on sale of securities and $10.7 million in one-time income tax benefit due to the expiration of the statute of limitations with respect to an amended income tax return and the associated interest. Expand Balance Sheet and Net Interest Margin The Company reported loans HFI of $9.87 billion at the end of the second quarter of 2025, compared to $9.77 billion at the end of the prior quarter. Net growth in loans HFI was driven by increases of $59.0 million in commercial real estate loans, $42.8 million in consumer and other loans, $28.1 million in 1-to-4 family mortgages and $27.6 million in residential lines of credit offset by a decline in multi-family loans of $61.1 million. Near the end of the second quarter of 2025, the Company elected to sell $266.5 million in available-for-sale debt securities with a weighted average yield of 1.63%. The Company anticipates utilizing the proceeds from this transaction to redeem outstanding subordinated and trust preferred debt, as well as originating higher yielding loans. The securities sold resulted in a GAAP loss of $60.5 million, which has been adjusted from earnings in the Company's computations of adjusted results and performance measures for the second quarter. The Company reported total deposits of $11.40 billion at the end of the second quarter compared to $11.20 billion at the end of the first quarter. Total cost of deposits decreased to 2.48% during the second quarter compared to 2.54% in the first quarter of 2025. The decrease in cost was driven by moving higher cost deposits off the balance sheet. Noninterest-bearing deposits were $2.19 billion at the end of the quarter compared to $2.16 billion at the end of the first quarter of 2025. The Company reported net interest income on a tax-equivalent basis in the second quarter of 2025 of $112.2 million compared to $108.4 million in the prior quarter. NIM increased to 3.68% for the second quarter of 2025 from 3.55% for the previous quarter. NIM improvement was driven by an increase in yields on earning assets of 8 basis points and a decrease in rates paid on interest-bearing liabilities of 3 basis points. The contractual yield on loans HFI increased to 6.34% from 6.31% in the first quarter of 2025 and the cost of interest-bearing deposits decreased to 3.10% from 3.13% in the previous quarter. Holmes continued, 'In the second quarter, we took several strategic actions to strengthen the Company's earnings profile, including restructuring our balance sheet. We are deploying the resulting funds to redeem debt, support loan growth and enhance our funding mix in the second half of the year. Our team remains focused on balancing growth, liquidity and credit quality while driving earnings improvement.' Noninterest Income Core noninterest income* was $25.8 million for the second quarter of 2025, compared to $23.6 million and $23.8 million for the prior quarter and second quarter of 2024, respectively. Mortgage banking income was $13.0 million in the second quarter of 2025, compared to $12.4 million in the prior quarter and $11.9 million in the second quarter of 2024. Noninterest Expense Core noninterest expense* during the second quarter of 2025 was $78.5 million compared to $79.1 million for the prior quarter and $74.1 million for the second quarter of 2024. During the second quarter of 2025, the Company's core efficiency ratio* was 56.9%, compared to 59.9% in the previous quarter and 58.3% in the second quarter of 2024. Core banking noninterest expense* was $64.6 million for the quarter, compared to $66.5 million in the prior quarter and $61.2 million in the second quarter of 2024. Chief Financial Officer Michael Mettee commented, 'Noninterest expense fell within our expectations in the second quarter as we focused on a successful combination with Southern States and the integration of our two institutions. Creating operating leverage remains a key focus as we continue to drive disciplined execution and long-term value.' Credit Quality In the second quarter, the Company recorded a provision reversal of $1.1 million related to loans HFI and a provision expense of $6.4 million related to unfunded loan commitments. The Company had an allowance for credit losses on loans HFI as of the end of the second quarter of 2025 of $148.9 million, representing 1.51% of loans HFI compared to $150.5 million, or 1.54% of loans HFI as of March 31, 2025. The Company had net charge-offs of $0.5 million in the second quarter of 2025, representing annualized net charge-offs of 0.02% of average loans HFI, compared to 0.14% in the prior quarter and 0.02% in the second quarter of 2024. The Company's nonperforming loans HFI as a percentage of total loans HFI increased to 0.97% as of the end of the second quarter of 2025, compared to 0.79% at both the previous quarter-end and the end of the second quarter of 2024. Nonperforming assets as a percentage of total assets increased to 0.92% as of the end of the second quarter of 2025, compared to 0.84% at the end of the prior quarter and 0.81% as of the end of the second quarter of 2024. Holmes commented, 'Our allowance for credit losses and charge-offs remained stable during the quarter. We saw a small uptick in nonperforming assets during the quarter, but loss content remains limited, and charge-offs continue at modest levels. We remain consistent and disciplined in our credit management approach and maintain our positive outlook for our credit portfolio.' Capital The Company maintained its strong capital position in the second quarter, resulting in a preliminary total risk-based capital ratio of 14.7%, preliminary common equity tier 1 ratio of 12.3% and tangible common equity to tangible assets ratio* of 10.4%. The Company repurchased 811,704 shares during the quarter. Holmes continued, 'With the successful close of our merger with Southern States, the Company enters the second half of the year with enhanced scale and strategic flexibility. We continue to maintain ample capital to support organic growth and pursue inorganic opportunities. Our disciplined approach to capital deployment keeps us well positioned when the right opportunities arise.' Summary Holmes finalized, 'As we close the second quarter of 2025, we're pleased to mark the successful closing of our merger with Southern States. This merger expands our size, reach and ability to serve our customers and communities with greater impact. The energy across our combined team is strong, and we're focused on delivering enhanced value and performance. With our increased scale and momentum, we are well-positioned to generate stronger returns for our shareholders and seize the opportunities ahead.' Southern States transaction On July 1, 2025, the Company completed its merger with Southern States. At closing, Southern States had approximately $2.87 billion in total assets, loans of $2.32 billion and deposits of $2.47 billion. The Company expects system conversions related to the transaction to be completed in the third quarter of 2025.

New risks and uncertainties may emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for the Company to predict their occurrence or how they will affect the Company. The Company qualifies all forward-looking statements by these cautionary statements. GAAP RECONCILIATION AND USE OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES This Earnings Release contains certain financial measures that are not measures recognized under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ('GAAP') and therefore are considered non-GAAP financial measures. These non-GAAP financial measures may include, without limitation, adjusted net income, adjusted diluted earnings per common share, adjusted pre-tax pre-provision net revenue, consolidated core revenue, consolidated core and segment noninterest expense and consolidated core noninterest income, consolidated core efficiency ratio (tax-equivalent basis), and adjusted return on average assets and equity. Each of these non-GAAP metrics excludes certain income and expense items that the Company's management considers to be non-core/adjusted in nature. The Company refers to these non-GAAP measures as adjusted (or core) measures. Also, the Company presents tangible assets, tangible common equity, tangible book value per common share, tangible common equity to tangible assets, return on average tangible common equity, and adjusted return on average tangible common equity. Each of these non-GAAP metrics excludes the impact of goodwill and other intangibles. The Company's management uses these non-GAAP financial measures in their analysis of the Company's performance, financial condition and the efficiency of its operations as management believes such measures facilitate period-to-period comparisons and provide meaningful indications of its operating performance as they eliminate both gains and charges that management views as non-recurring or not indicative of operating performance. Management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide a greater understanding of ongoing operations and enhance comparability of results with prior periods as well as demonstrate the effects of significant non-core gains and charges in the current and prior periods. The Company's management also believes that investors find these non-GAAP financial measures useful as they assist investors in understanding the Company's underlying operating performance and in the analysis of ongoing operating trends. In addition, because intangible assets such as goodwill and the other items excluded each vary extensively from company to company, the Company believes that the presentation of this information allows investors to more easily compare the Company's results to the results of other companies. However, the non-GAAP financial measures discussed herein should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the most directly comparable or other financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. Moreover, the manner in which the Company calculates the non-GAAP financial measures discussed herein may differ from that of other companies reporting measures with similar names. Investors should understand how such other banking organizations calculate their financial measures with names similar to the non-GAAP financial measures the Company has discussed herein when comparing such non-GAAP financial measures. A reconciliation of these measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures is included in the Company's Second Quarter 2025 Financial Supplement, which is available at .

Macy's, Inc. Announces Pricing of Senior Notes
NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Macy's, Inc. (NYSE: M) (the 'Company') announced today that its wholly-owned subsidiary, Macy's Retail Holdings, LLC (the 'Issuer'), priced an offering of $500 million in aggregate principal amount of 7.375% senior notes due 2033 (the 'Notes') in a private offering at an offering price of 100% of the principal amount thereof. The Notes will have a maturity date of August 1, 2033. The closing of the offering of the Notes is expected to occur on July 29, 2025, subject to customary closing conditions. The Notes will be senior unsecured obligations of the Issuer and will be unconditionally guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by the Company. The Issuer intends to use the proceeds from the offering of the Notes, together with cash on hand, to (i) fund its separately announced concurrent tender offer (the 'Tender Offer'), (ii) redeem approximately $587 million of certain of its existing outstanding senior notes and debentures (such redemption, the 'Redemption') and (iii) pay fees, premium and expenses in connection therewith and this offering. The Redemption and the Tender Offer are conditioned on, among other things, the consummation of the offering of the Notes. The offering of the Notes, however, is not conditioned on the consummation of the Redemption or the Tender Offer (including the tender of any specified amount of the Company's outstanding senior notes as part of the Tender Offer).

The Notes are being offered only to persons reasonably believed to be qualified institutional buyers in an offering exempt from registration in reliance on Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the 'Securities Act'), and outside the United States in reliance on Regulation S under the Securities Act. The Notes and related guarantees have not been registered under the Securities Act or any state securities laws and may not be offered or sold in the United States without registration or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act or any applicable state securities laws.
