Good afternoon, I’d like to welcome everyone to Repay’s Fourth Quarter 2025 Earnings Conference Call. This call is being recorded today, March 9, 2026.

I’d like to turn the session over to Stewart Grisante, Head of Investor Relations at Repay. Stewart, you may begin.

Stewart Grisante
Head of Investor Relations

Thank you. Good afternoon, and welcome to Repay’s Fourth Quarter 2025 Earnings Conference Call. With us today are John Morris, Co-Founder and Chief Executive Officer; and Robert Houser, Chief Financial Officer.

During this call, we will be making forward-looking statements about our beliefs and estimates regarding future events and results. Those forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties, including those set forth in the SEC filings related to today’s results and in our most recent Form 10-K. Actual results may differ materially from any forward-looking statements that we make today.

Forward-looking statements speak only as of today, and we do not assume any obligation or intend to update them except as required by law. In an effort to provide additional information to investors, today’s discussion will also reference certain non-GAAP financial measures. Reconciliations and other explanations of those non-GAAP financial measures can be found in today’s press release and in the earnings supplement, each of which are available on the company’s IR site.

With that, I will now turn the call over to John.

For those wondering about the state of play for oil prices, gasoline, and stocks, here’s what President Trump said this afternoon: “I think the war is very complete, pretty much. They have no navy, no communications, they’ve got no Air Force.” And that America is “very far” ahead of his initial four-week to five-week estimated time frame.

Soon after the President’s statement, oil fell to $85 a barrel after topping $100 a barrel earlier in the day and stocks ended up rising more than 200 points.

And I have faith in him and his initial judgements, which have been superb. And I also have faith in the American people to stand behind Mr. Trump’s epic fury in order to change the course of history, and completely shift the international landscape and change the world’s balance of power in favor of America, the Western democracies, of course Israel, and our friends in the Middle East. I even saw a 52 percent favorable Rasmussen poll.  

As I’ve said before, this is like the Berlin Wall coming down with President Reagan ending Soviet Communism. Or FDR ending fascism in World War II. And Mr. Trump ending ISIS in the first term, and now ending the barbaric terror state Iran, to finally conclude Iran’s 47-year forever war against America. A temporary blip in gasoline prices is a very small price to pay to achieve literally world-shattering results.

Mr. Trump is bending the arc of history toward freedom and prosperity. If you’re looking for economic impact estimates, there are a dime a dozen, and I wouldn’t put any confidence in any of them right now. Inflation, recession, stagflation.

I suppose it all depends on the duration of the war, which is unknowable, but it’s not going to be six months or twelve months or longer. Therefore, why bother to guesstimate?

We can say this factually, through the third quarter of 2025, according to OPEC, world oil production was 106.3 million barrels per day, more than world oil demand which was 105.5 million barrels per day.

If you take out a fifth of oil production because the Strait of Hormuz is not functioning, of course you have a dire Strait. But Mr. Trump is moving rapidly to reopen Hormuz with reinsurance guarantees and United States Navy protection. When? Probably a week or two, maybe less.

Iran will never stop this. And if they dare, it will make matters even more catastrophic for them. Hormuz will not stop history. Investors should look through this war and see the enormous prosperity that lies on the other side. And ordinary American working folks should celebrate the greatness of America.
