Visa Inc. Reports Fiscal Second Quarter 2021 Results San Francisco, CA, April 27, 2021 – Visa Inc. (NYSE: V)  GAAP and non-GAAP net income of $3.0B or $1.38 per share  Net revenues of $5.7B, a decrease of 2% or approximately flat if service revenues were recognized on current quarter’s payments volume  Our key business driver growth rates are starting to ramp up, reflecting the depressed levels in 2020 due to COVID-19 and making year-over-year comparisons difficult to interpret  Compared to fiscal second quarter 2019 levels, payments volume and processed transactions were both 16 percentage points higher, while cross-border volumes excluding intra-Europe remained 25 percentage points lower. All business drivers were consistent or improved from the fiscal first quarter’s results indexed to 2019  Returned $2.4B of capital to shareholders in the form of share repurchases and dividends Alfred F. Kelly, Jr., Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, Visa Inc., commented on the results: “The COVID-19 pandemic certainly has turned the world upside down in the last year, but we believe we are starting to see the beginning of the end and the recovery is well underway in a number of key markets around the world. This quarter, we saw a return to positive growth for credit and card present transactions and debit and eCommerce growth stayed at very healthy levels. Cross-border travel is the slowest sector to return, but there are some green shoots that offer real indication of people looking to see the world. As economies are recovering, Visa is very well-positioned and continues to invest and innovate to drive big gains in our three strategic growth areas: consumer payments, new flows and value added services.”


 
2 Fiscal Second Quarter 2021 — Financial Highlights GAAP net income in the fiscal second quarter was $3.0 billion or $1.38 per share, a decrease of 2% and flat, respectively, over prior year’s results. Current year’s results included $152 million pertaining to a special item for additional indirect taxes related to prior periods, $156 million of net gains from equity investments and $18 million regarding the amortization of acquired intangible assets and non-recurring acquisition-related costs. Prior year’s results included $2 million of net losses from equity investments and $16 million corresponding to the amortization of acquired intangible assets and non-recurring acquisition-related costs. Excluding these items and the related tax impacts, non-GAAP net income for the quarter was $3.0 billion or $1.38 per share, decreases of 2% and 1%, respectively, over prior year’s results (refer to the accompanying financial tables for further details and a reconciliation of the non-GAAP measures presented). Non-GAAP earnings per share was approximately flat on a constant-dollar basis. All references to earnings per share assume fully-diluted class A share count. Net revenues in the fiscal second quarter were $5.7 billion, a decrease of 2%, primarily driven by the year-over-year decline in cross-border volume, mostly offset by growth in payments volume and processed transactions. Net revenues decreased approximately 3% on a constant-dollar basis. Had we recognized service revenues on current quarter payments volume and other revenue components remained unchanged, net revenues would have been approximately flat. Payments volume for the three months ended December 31, 2020, on which fiscal second quarter service revenue is recognized, increased 5% over the prior year on a constant-dollar basis. Payments volume for the three months ended March 31, 2021, increased 11% over the prior year on a constant-dollar basis. Cross-border volume excluding transactions within Europe, which drive our international transaction revenues, declined 21% on a constant-dollar basis for the three months ended March 31, 2021. Total cross-border volume on a constant-dollar basis declined 11% in the quarter. Total processed transactions, which represent transactions processed by Visa, for the three months ended March 31, 2021, were 37.6 billion, an 8% increase over the prior year, led by domestic transactions. Fiscal second quarter service revenues were $2.8 billion, an increase of 8% over the prior year, and are recognized based on payments volume in the prior quarter. All other revenue categories are recognized based on current quarter activity. Data processing revenues grew 11% over the prior year to $3.0 billion. International transaction revenues declined 19% over the prior year to $1.5 billion. Other revenues of $392 million were flat over the prior year. Client incentives, a contra-revenue item, were $2.0 billion and represented 25.8% of gross revenues. GAAP operating expenses were $2.1 billion for the fiscal second quarter, an 11% increase over the prior year's results, including the special item related to the additional indirect taxes in the current year and the amortization of acquired intangible assets and non- recurring acquisition-related costs in the current and prior year. Excluding these operating expense items, non-GAAP operating expenses increased 3% over the prior year, primarily driven by an increase in personnel expenses partially offset by decreases in general and administrative, marketing and professional fees. GAAP non-operating income was $47 million for the fiscal second quarter, including $156 million of net equity investment gains. Excluding this item, non-GAAP non-operating expense was $109 million. GAAP effective income tax rate was 16.6% for the quarter ended March 31, 2021, including the tax impacts of the special item, net equity investment gains, amortization of acquired intangible assets and non-recurring acquisition-related costs. Excluding these items, the non-GAAP effective income tax rate was 16.8% for the quarter ended March 31, 2021. GAAP and non-GAAP tax rates benefited from completing certain tax audits. Cash, cash equivalents and investment securities were $18.7 billion at March 31, 2021. The weighted-average number of diluted shares of class A common stock outstanding was 2.19 billion for the quarter ended March 31, 2021.


 
3 Other Notable Items During the three months ended March 31, 2021, Visa repurchased 8.3 million shares of class A common stock at an average price of $208.51 per share for $1.7 billion. In the six months ended March 31, 2021, Visa repurchased a total of 17.0 million shares of class A common stock, at an average price of $205.33 per share, using $3.5 billion of cash on hand. The Company had $9.9 billion of remaining authorized funds for share repurchase as of March 31, 2021. On April 23, 2021, the board of directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.32 per share of class A common stock (determined in the case of class B and C common stock and series A, B and C convertible participating preferred stock on an as- converted basis) payable on June 1, 2021, to all holders of record as of May 14, 2021. Financial Outlook for Fiscal Full-Year 2021 Given the continuing impact of COVID-19 and the significant uncertainty in the global economy, it is difficult to reasonably estimate the Company's annual results; therefore we are not providing a fiscal full-year 2021 outlook at this time.

10 Visa Inc. Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Results (unaudited) We use non-GAAP financial measures of our performance which exclude certain items which we believe are not representative of our continuing operations, as they may be non-recurring or have no cash impact, and may distort our longer-term operating trends. We consider non-GAAP measures useful to investors because they provide greater transparency into management’s view and assessment of our ongoing operating performance. • Gains and losses on equity investments. Gains and losses on equity investments include periodic non-cash fair value adjustments and gains and losses upon sale of an investment. These long-term investments are strategic in nature and are primarily private company investments. Gains and losses and the related tax impacts associated with these investments are tied to the performance of the companies that we invest in and therefore do not correlate to the underlying performance of our business. • Amortization of acquired intangible assets. Amortization of acquired intangible assets consists of amortization of intangible assets such as developed technology, customer relationships and brands acquired in connection with business combinations executed beginning in fiscal 2019. Amortization charges for our acquired intangible assets are non-cash and are significantly affected by the timing, frequency and size of our acquisitions, rather than our core operations. As such, we have excluded this amount and the related tax impact to facilitate an evaluation of our current operating performance and comparison to our past operating performance. • Acquisition-related costs. Acquisition-related costs consist primarily of one-time transaction and integration costs associated with our business combinations. These costs include professional fees, technology integration fees, restructuring activities and other direct costs related to the purchase and integration of acquired entities. It also includes retention equity and deferred equity compensation when they are agreed upon as part of the purchase price of the transaction but are required to be recognized as expense post-combination. We have excluded these amounts and the related tax impacts as the expenses are recognized for a limited duration and do not reflect the underlying performance of our business. • Indirect taxes. During the three and six months ended March 31, 2021, we recognized a one-time charge within general and administrative expense of $152 million, before tax. Net of the related income tax benefit of $40 million, determined by applying applicable tax rates, non-GAAP net income increased by $112 million. This charge is to record our estimate of probable additional indirect taxes, related to prior periods, for which we could be liable as a result of certain changes in applicable law. This one-time charge is not representative of our ongoing operations.

16 Footnote Payments volume, including Visa Direct volume, represents the aggregate dollar amount of purchases made with cards and other form factors carrying the Visa, Visa Electron, V PAY and Interlink brands and excludes Europe co-badged volume for the relevant period, and cash volume represents the aggregate dollar amount of cash disbursements obtained with these cards for the relevant period and includes the impact of balance transfers and convenience checks, but excludes proprietary PLUS volume. Total volume represents payments and cash volume. Visa payment products are comprised of credit and debit programs, and data relating to each program is included in the tables. Debit programs include Visa’s signature based and Interlink (PIN) debit programs. The data presented is based on transactions processed by Visa and reported by Visa’s financial institution clients on their operating certificates. Estimates may be utilized if data is unavailable. On occasion, previously presented information may be updated. Prior period updates, if any, are not material. Visa’s CEMEA region is comprised of countries in Central Europe, the Middle East and Africa. Several European Union countries in Central Europe, Israel and Turkey are not included in CEMEA. LAC is comprised of countries in Central and South America and the Caribbean. International includes Asia Pacific, Canada, CEMEA, Europe and LAC. Information denominated in U.S. dollars is calculated by applying an established U.S. dollar/local currency exchange rate for each local currency in which Visa Inc. volumes are reported (“Nominal USD”). These exchange rates are calculated on a quarterly basis using the established exchange rate for each quarter. To eliminate the impact of foreign currency fluctuations against the U.S. dollar in measuring performance, Visa Inc. also reports year-over-year growth in total volume, payments volume and cash volume on the basis of local currency information (“Constant USD”). This presentation represents Visa’s historical methodology which may be subject to review and refinement. Figures in the tables may not recalculate exactly due to rounding. The totals and percentages are calculated based on unrounded numbers.
