Western Union Reports Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2024 Results
DENVER, February 4, 2025 – The Western Union Company (the “Company” or “Western Union”) (NYSE: WU) today reported fourth quarter and full year 2024 financial results.
The Company’s fourth-quarter revenue of $1.1 billion increased 1% on a reported basis. The revenue increase was driven by growth in Consumer Services and Branded Digital. Results included a lower contribution from Iraq compared to the prior year period, which negatively impacted the revenue growth rate by 3 percentage points.
“We concluded 2024 with a solid performance, marking our third consecutive quarter of positive adjusted revenue growth, excluding Iraq, which was bolstered by 15% adjusted revenue growth in Consumer Services and the seventh consecutive quarter of double-digit transaction growth in our Branded Digital business,” said Devin McGranahan, President and Chief Executive Officer. “As we enter the final year of our Evolve 2025 strategy, I am pleased with the advancements we have achieved and the positive shift in the Company’s growth trajectory. Looking ahead, I believe we are poised to drive further improvements and efficiencies, and I am confident in our ability to continue delivering value to our investors and stakeholders.”
Fourth quarter GAAP EPS was $1.13, up from $0.35 in the prior year period. GAAP EPS included a $0.75 tax benefit from the reorganization of the Company’s international operations. Adjusted EPS increased to $0.40 from $0.37 in the prior year period due to higher adjusted operating profit, fewer shares outstanding, and a lower adjusted effective tax rate.
The Board of Directors today approved the first quarter dividend of $0.235 per common share, payable March 31, 2025, to shareholders of record at the close of business on March 17, 2025.

Non-GAAP Measures
Western Union presents a number of non-GAAP financial measures because management believes that these metrics provide meaningful supplemental information in addition to the GAAP metrics and provide comparability and consistency to prior periods. Constant currency results assume foreign revenues are translated from foreign currencies to the U.S. dollar, net of the effect of foreign currency hedges, at rates consistent with those in the prior year. The Company estimates Argentina inflation as the revenue growth not attributable to either transaction growth or the change in price (revenue divided by principal).
Reconciliations of non-GAAP to comparable GAAP measures are available in the accompanying schedules and in the “Investor Relations” section of the Company’s website at https://ir.westernunion.com.

All amounts included in the supplemental tables to this press release are rounded to the nearest tenth of a million, except as otherwise noted. As a result, the percentage changes and margins disclosed herein may not recalculate precisely using the rounded amounts provided.

THE WESTERN UNION COMPANY
NOTES TO KEY STATISTICS
(Unaudited)
(in millions, unless indicated otherwise)
Western Union’s management believes the non-GAAP financial measures presented within this press release and related tables provide meaningful supplemental information regarding the Company’s results to assist management, investors, analysts, and others in understanding the Company’s financial results and to better analyze operating, profitability, and other financial performance trends in the Company’s underlying business because they provide consistency and comparability to prior periods or eliminate currency volatility, increasing the comparability of the Company's underlying results and trends.
A non-GAAP financial measure should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the most comparable GAAP financial measure. A non-GAAP financial measure reflects an additional way of viewing aspects of the Company’s operations that, when viewed with the Company’s GAAP results and the reconciliation to the corresponding GAAP financial measure, provides a more complete understanding of the Company’s business. Users of the financial statements are encouraged to review the Company’s financial statements and publicly-filed reports in their entirety and not to rely on any single financial measure. A reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures is included below, where not previously reconciled above.
