1. Business and Basis of Presentation

Business

The Western Union Company (“Western Union” or the “Company”) is a leader in cross-border, cross-currency money movement, payments, and digital financial services, empowering consumers, businesses, financial institutions, and governments with fast, reliable, and convenient ways to send money and make payments around the world. The Western Union brand is globally recognized. The Company’s services are available through a network of agent locations in more than 200 countries and territories and also through the Company's or its third-party digital partners' websites and mobile applications marketed under the Company’s brands (“Branded Digital”). Each location in the Company’s agent network is capable of providing one or more of the Company’s services.

The Western Union business consists of the following segments:

•
Consumer Money Transfer - The Consumer Money Transfer segment facilitates money transfers, which are primarily sent from retail agent and owned locations worldwide or through websites and mobile devices. The Company’s money transfer service is provided through one interconnected global network. This service is available for international cross-border transfers and, in certain countries, intra-country transfers.
•
Consumer Services - The Consumer Services segment includes the Company’s bill payment services, money order services, travel money services, media network, prepaid cards, lending partnerships, and digital wallets.

 

See Note 14 for further information regarding the Company’s segments.

There are legal or regulatory limitations on transferring certain assets of the Company outside of the countries where these assets are located. However, there are generally no limitations on the use of these assets within those countries. Additionally, the Company must meet minimum capital requirements in some countries in order to maintain operating licenses. As of December 31, 2024, the Company's restricted net assets associated with these asset limitations and minimum capital requirements totaled approximately $340 million.

Various aspects of the Company’s services and businesses are subject to United States federal, state, and local regulation, as well as regulation by foreign jurisdictions, including certain banking and other financial services regulations.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited and were prepared in accordance with the instructions for Form 10‑Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. In compliance with those instructions, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted.

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in this quarterly report are presented on a consolidated basis and include the accounts of the Company and its majority-owned subsidiaries. Results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the entire year. All significant intercompany transactions and accounts have been eliminated as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024 and for all periods presented.

In the opinion of management, these condensed consolidated financial statements include all the normal recurring adjustments necessary to fairly present the Company’s condensed consolidated results of operations, financial position, and cash flows as of June 30, 2025 and for all periods presented. These condensed consolidated financial statements should

be read in conjunction with the Company’s consolidated financial statements within the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10‑K for the year ended December 31, 2024.

Consistent with industry practice, the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets are unclassified due to the short-term nature of the Company’s settlement obligations contrasted with the Company’s ability to invest cash awaiting settlement in long-term investment securities.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2024, the Company adopted a new accounting standard that requires the Company to expand reportable segment disclosures, primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses. The adoption of this standard did not have an impact on the Company's financial position or results of operations. Refer to Note 14 for additional information and the related disclosures.

Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued a new accounting pronouncement regarding income tax disclosures. The standard requires that public entities disclose more consistent and detailed categories in their statutory to effective income tax rate reconciliations and further disaggregate income taxes paid by jurisdiction. The Company is required to adopt the new standard for its 2025 annual reporting. Management is in the process of preparing to comply with the new disclosure requirements.

In November 2024, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued a new accounting pronouncement regarding the disclosure of specified information about certain costs and expenses. The standard requires that public entities disclose certain detailed information about the types of expenses included in the expense captions presented within the consolidated statements of income, provide qualitative descriptions for expenses not separately disaggregated quantitatively, and disclose an entity's definition and total amount of selling expenses. The Company is required to adopt the new standard for its 2027 annual reporting and interim periods thereafter, using either a prospective or retrospective approach. Management is currently evaluating the potential impact that the adoption of this standard will have on the Company's disclosures.

Revenue from Contract with Customer [Abstract]

2. Revenue

The Company’s revenues are primarily derived from consideration paid by customers to transfer money. These revenues vary by transaction based upon factors such as channel, send and receive locations, the send and receive funding method, the principal amount sent, and, when the money transfer involves different send and receive currencies, the difference between the exchange rate set by the Company to the customer and a rate available in the wholesale foreign exchange market. The Company also offers other consumer services, for which revenue is impacted by similar factors. The Company analyzes its different services individually to determine the appropriate basis for revenue recognition. For additional information on the Company's different services, refer to the Company’s consolidated financial statements within the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10‑K for the year ended December 31, 2024.

Revenues from consumer money transfers are included in the Company’s Consumer Money Transfer segment and revenues from consumer bill payment and other services are included in the Company’s Consumer Services segment. See Note 14 for further information on the Company’s segments.

The substantial majority of the Company’s revenue is recognized at a point in time. The following tables represent the disaggregation of revenue earned from contracts with customers by product type and region for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 (in millions). The regional split of revenue shown in the tables below is based upon where transactions are initiated.

Earnings Per Share [Abstract]  
Earnings Per Share

3. Earnings Per Share

The calculation of basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the period. Outstanding options to purchase Western Union stock and unvested shares of restricted stock are excluded from basic shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if outstanding stock options at the presented dates are exercised and shares of restricted stock have vested, using the treasury stock method. The treasury stock method assumes proceeds from the exercise price of stock options and the unamortized compensation expense of options and restricted stock are available to acquire shares at an average market price throughout the period, and therefore, reduce the dilutive effect.

Shares excluded from the diluted earnings per share calculation were 17.3 million and 12.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and 15.7 million and 11.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The effect of these shares was anti-dilutive under the treasury stock method, as the assumed proceeds of the options and restricted stock per unit were above the Company's average share price during the periods.

The following table provides the calculation of diluted weighted-average shares outstanding (in millions):

5. Fair Value Measurements

Fair value, as defined by the relevant accounting standards, represents the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. For additional information on how the Company measures fair value, refer to the Company’s consolidated financial statements within the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10‑K for the year ended December 31, 2024.

The following tables present the Company’s assets and liabilities, which are measured at fair value on a recurring basis, by category (in millions):

There were no material, non-recurring fair value adjustments in the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024. There were no transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 measurements during the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024.

Other Fair Value Measurements

The carrying amounts for many of the Company’s financial instruments, including certain cash and cash equivalents, settlement cash and cash equivalents, and settlement receivables and obligations approximate fair value due to their short maturities. The Company’s borrowings are classified as Level 2 within the valuation hierarchy, and the aggregate fair value of these borrowings was based on quotes from multiple banks. Fixed-rate notes are carried in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets at their original issuance values as adjusted over time to accrete that value to par. As of June 30, 2025, the carrying value and fair value of the Company’s borrowings were $2,749.2 million and $2,716.3 million, respectively (see Note 11). As of December 31, 2024, the carrying value and fair value of the Company’s borrowings were $2,940.8 million and $2,876.7 million, respectively.

Commitments and Contingencies

6. Commitments and Contingencies

Letters of Credit and Bank Guarantees

The Company had approximately $110 million in outstanding letters of credit and bank guarantees as of June 30, 2025, which were primarily held in connection with regulatory requirements, lease arrangements, and certain agent agreements. The Company expects to renew many of its letters of credit and bank guarantees prior to expiration.

Litigation and Related Contingencies

The Company is subject to certain claims and litigation that could result in losses, including damages, fines, and/or civil penalties, which could be significant, and in some cases, criminal charges. The Company regularly evaluates the status of legal matters to assess whether a loss is probable and reasonably estimable in determining whether an accrual is appropriate. Furthermore, in determining whether disclosure is appropriate, the Company evaluates each legal matter to assess if there is at least a reasonable possibility that a material loss or additional material losses may have been incurred. The Company also evaluates whether an estimate of possible loss or range of loss can be made. Unless otherwise specified below, the Company believes that there is at least a reasonable possibility that a loss or additional loss may have been incurred for each of the matters described below.

For those matters that the Company believes there is at least a reasonable possibility that a loss or additional loss may have been incurred and can reasonably estimate the loss or potential loss, the reasonably possible potential litigation losses in excess of the Company’s recorded liability for probable and estimable losses was approximately $30 million as of June 30, 2025. For the remaining matters, management is unable to provide a meaningful estimate of the possible loss or range of loss because, among other reasons: (i) the proceedings are in preliminary stages; (ii) specific damages have not been sought; (iii) damage claims are unsupported and/or unreasonable; (iv) there is uncertainty as to the outcome of pending appeals or motions; (v) there are significant factual issues to be resolved; or (vi) novel legal issues or unsettled legal theories are being asserted.

The outcomes of legal actions are unpredictable and subject to significant uncertainties, and it is inherently difficult to determine whether any loss is probable or even possible. It is also inherently difficult to estimate the amount of any loss, and there may be matters for which a loss is probable or reasonably possible but not currently estimable. Accordingly, actual losses may be in excess of the established liability or the range of reasonably possible loss.

Legal Matters

In October 2015, Consumidores Financieros Asociación Civil para su Defensa, an Argentinian consumer association, filed a purported class action lawsuit in Argentina’s National Commercial Court No. 19 against the Company’s subsidiary Western Union Financial Services Argentina S.R.L. (“WUFSA”). The lawsuit alleges, among other things, that WUFSA’s fees for money transfers sent from Argentina are excessive and that WUFSA does not provide consumers with adequate information about foreign exchange rates. The plaintiff is seeking, among other things, an order requiring WUFSA to reimburse consumers for the fees they paid and the foreign exchange revenue associated with money transfers sent from Argentina, plus punitive damages. The complaint does not specify a monetary value of the claim or a time period. In November 2015, the Court declared the complaint formally admissible as a class action. The notice of claim was served on WUFSA in May 2016, and in June 2016 WUFSA filed a response to the claim and moved to dismiss it on statute of limitations and standing grounds. In April 2017, the Court deferred ruling on the motion until later in the proceedings. The process for notifying potential class members has been completed, and the case is in the evidentiary stage. Due to the stage of this matter, the Company is unable to predict the outcome or the possible loss or range of loss, if any, associated with this matter. WUFSA intends to defend itself vigorously.

In late 2017, three individuals filed a lawsuit against certain alleged Western Union entities (collectively, the “Defendants”) in the Commercial Court in Kinshasa-Gombe in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (“DRC”), which was later joined by three additional individuals. These six individuals (the “Plaintiffs”), including current and/or former DRC government officials, claim that their privacy rights were violated and sought €22.4 million in damages. In 2018, the Commercial Court in Kinshasa-Gombe entered a judgment against the Defendants in the amount of €10.5 million ($12.3 million as of June 30, 2025). In 2019, the Commercial Court in Kinshasa-Gombe entered a judgment against the Company in the amount of €9 million ($10.5 million as of June 30, 2025). The Plaintiffs have previously sought and may continue to attempt to seize funds from the Company’s independent agents in the DRC to satisfy the judgments. The Defendants have learned that certain challenges to the judgments have been denied. The Defendants and the Company intend to continue to challenge both judgments and defend themselves vigorously in these matters.

In addition to the principal matters described above, the Company is a party to a variety of other legal matters that arise in the normal course of the Company’s business. While the results of these other legal matters cannot be predicted with certainty, management believes that the final outcome of these matters will not have a material adverse effect either individually or in the aggregate on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows.

Allowance for Credit Losses

Receivables from agents and others primarily represent funds collected by such agents, but in transit to the Company. Cash received by Western Union agents generally becomes available to the Company within one week after initial receipt by the agent. Western Union has a large and diverse agent base, thereby reducing the credit risk of the Company from any one agent. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its agents’ financial condition and credit worthiness.

The Company establishes and monitors an allowance for credit losses related to receivables from agents and others. The Company has estimated the allowance based on its historical collections experience, adjusted for current conditions and forecasts of future economic conditions based on information known as of June 30, 2025.

The following tables summarize the activity in the allowance for credit losses on receivables from agents and others (in millions):

(a)
Provision does not include losses from chargebacks or fraud associated with transactions initiated through the Company’s digital channels, as these losses are not credit-related.

 

In addition, from time to time, the Company makes advances to its agents and disbursement partners. The Company often owes settlement funds payable to these agents that offset these advances. These amounts advanced to agents and disbursement partners are included within Other assets in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. As of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, amounts advanced to agents and disbursement partners were $229.1 million and $209.1 million, respectively, and the related allowances for credit losses were immaterial.

Investment Securities

Investment securities included in Settlement assets in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets consist primarily of highly-rated state and municipal debt securities, including fixed-rate term notes. Investment securities are exposed to market risk due to changes in interest rates and credit risk. The Company is required to hold highly-rated, investment grade securities and such investments are restricted to satisfy outstanding settlement obligations in accordance with applicable regulatory requirements.

The Company’s investment securities are classified as available-for-sale and recorded at fair value. Western Union regularly monitors credit risk and attempts to mitigate its exposure by investing in highly-rated securities and through investment diversification.

Unrealized gains on available-for-sale securities are excluded from earnings and presented as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss, net of related deferred taxes. Available-for-sale securities with a fair value below the amortized cost basis are evaluated on an individual basis to determine whether the impairment is due to credit-related factors or noncredit-related factors. Factors that could indicate a credit loss exists include but are not limited to: (i) negative earnings performance, (ii) credit rating downgrades, or (iii) adverse changes in the regulatory or economic environment of the asset. Any impairment that is not credit-related is excluded from earnings and presented as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss, net of related deferred taxes, unless the Company intends to sell the impaired security, or it is more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell the security before recovering its amortized cost basis. Credit-related impairments are recognized immediately as an adjustment to earnings, regardless of whether the Company has the ability or intent to hold the security to maturity, and are limited to the difference between fair value and the amortized cost basis.

The Company's provision for credit losses on its investment securities during the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and the related allowance for credit losses as of June 30, 2025 were immaterial, as the unrealized losses were driven by a rise in U.S. Treasury interest rates since those investment securities were purchased. As of June 30, 2025, the Company did not intend to sell its securities in an unrealized loss position and did not expect it would be required to sell these securities prior to recovering their amortized cost basis.

Cash Dividends Paid

In both the first and second quarters of 2025 and 2024, the Company's Board of Directors declared quarterly cash dividends of $0.235 per common share, representing $76.6 million and $79.4 million of total dividends for the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and $155.4 million and $159.5 million of total dividends for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

Share Repurchases

During the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, 14.8 million and 13.8 million shares were repurchased for $149.7 million and $176.2 million, respectively, excluding commissions, at an average cost of $10.08 and $12.76, respectively, under the share repurchase authorizations approved by the Company's Board of Directors, including one which expired on December 31, 2024. On December 13, 2024, the Company's Board of Directors authorized $1.0 billion of common stock repurchases with no expiration date. As of June 30, 2025, $850.3 million remained available under this share repurchase authorization. The amounts included in the Common stock repurchased line in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows represent both shares authorized by the Board of Directors for repurchase under publicly announced authorizations and shares withheld from employees to cover tax withholding obligations on stock awards that have vested.

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract]  
Derivatives

10. Derivatives

The Company is exposed to foreign currency exchange risk resulting from fluctuations in exchange rates, including the euro, and, to a lesser degree, the British pound, the Canadian dollar, and other currencies, related to forecasted revenues and settlement assets and obligations, as well as on certain foreign currency denominated cash and other asset and liability positions. Additionally, the Company is exposed to interest rate risk related to changes in market rates both prior to and subsequent to the issuance of debt. The Company uses derivatives to minimize its exposures related to changes in foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates.

The Company executes derivatives with established financial institutions; the substantial majority of these financial institutions have a credit rating of “A-” or higher from a major credit rating agency. The primary credit risk inherent in derivative agreements represents the possibility that a loss may occur from the nonperformance of a counterparty to the agreements. The Company performs a review of the credit risk of these counterparties at the inception of the contract and on an ongoing basis, while also monitoring the concentration of its contracts with any individual counterparty.

Foreign Currency Derivatives

The Company’s policy is to use longer duration foreign currency forward contracts, with maturities of up to 36 months at inception and a targeted weighted-average maturity of one to two years, to help mitigate some of the risk that changes in foreign currency exchange rates compared to the United States dollar could have on forecasted revenues denominated in other currencies related to its business. As of June 30, 2025, these foreign currency forward contracts had maturities of a maximum of 36 months with a weighted-average maturity of approximately one year. These contracts are accounted for as cash flow hedges of forecasted revenue, with effectiveness assessed based on changes in the spot rate of the affected currencies during the period of designation and thus time value is excluded from the assessment of effectiveness. The initial value of the excluded components is amortized into Revenues within the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.

The Company also uses short duration foreign currency forward contracts, generally with maturities ranging from a few days to one month, to offset foreign exchange rate fluctuations on settlement assets and obligations between initiation and settlement. In addition, forward contracts, typically with maturities of less than one year at inception, are utilized to offset foreign exchange rate fluctuations on certain foreign currency denominated cash and other asset and liability positions. None of these contracts are designated as accounting hedges.

The aggregate equivalent United States dollar notional amounts of foreign currency forward contracts as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024 were as follows (in millions):

Offsetting of Derivative Assets and Liabilities

The Company has elected to present derivative assets and liabilities on a gross basis in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets; however, derivatives associated with the Company's foreign currency exchange contracts that are subject to a master netting arrangement or similar agreement would have resulted in an offset of $3.3 million and $3.4 million to both derivative assets and liabilities as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. This includes the fair values of derivative assets and liabilities associated with contracts that include netting language that the Company believes to be enforceable. The Company’s rights under these agreements generally allow for transactions to be settled on a net basis, including upon early termination, which could occur upon the counterparty’s default, a change in control, or other conditions.

The Company uses foreign currency forward contracts to offset foreign exchange rate fluctuations on settlement assets and obligations as well as certain foreign currency denominated positions. Foreign exchange gains/(losses) on settlement assets and obligations, cash balances, and other assets and liabilities, not including amounts related to derivative activity as displayed above and included in Selling, general, and administrative in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income, were $25.7 million and $(12.9) million for the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and $37.9 million and $(30.4) million for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

All cash flows associated with derivatives are included in Cash flows from operating activities in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

Based on June 30, 2025 foreign exchange rates, an accumulated other comprehensive pre-tax loss of $24.4 million related to the foreign currency forward contracts is expected to be reclassified into Revenues within the next 12 months.

12. Income Taxes

The Company’s effective tax rates on pre-tax income were 23.6% and 14.7% for the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and 20.0% and 15.4% for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. For the three months ended June 30, 2025, compared to the corresponding period in the prior year, the increase in the effective tax rate was primarily due to the reorganization of the Company’s international operations, which took place during the year ended December 31, 2024, and discrete items. For the six months ended June 30, 2025 compared to the corresponding period in the prior year, the increase in the effective tax rate was primarily due to the reorganization of the Company’s international operations, partially offset by discrete benefits.

 

Unrecognized tax benefits are reflected in Income taxes payable in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The total amount of unrecognized tax benefits as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024 was $60.9 million and $71.6 million, respectively, including interest and penalties.

 

The Company’s tax filings are subject to examination by U.S. federal, state, and various non-United States jurisdictions. The conclusion of the examination of the Company’s consolidated federal income tax returns for 2017 and 2018 resulted in both agreed and unagreed adjustments. The Company is contesting the one remaining unagreed adjustment at the IRS Appeals level and has fully reserved for this unagreed adjustment. The statute of limitations for the U.S. federal returns for 2017 and 2018 has been extended to September 30, 2025. The Company’s U.S. federal income tax returns since 2021 are also eligible to be examined.

On July 4, 2025, the United States government enacted into law the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (the “OBBB”). The OBBB includes a broad range of tax reform provisions affecting businesses, and the Company is currently evaluating the potential impact the OBBB will have on its results of operations and business.

Segment Reporting [Abstract]  
Segments

14. Segments

As further described in Note 1, the Company has classified its business into the following segments: Consumer Money Transfer and Consumer Services. Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise that engage in business activities, about which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the Company’s Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) in allocating resources and assessing performance.

The Company's CODM is the President and Chief Executive Officer. The CODM uses segment operating income or loss to assess performance and allocate resources to the segments. This measure includes all expenses necessary to operate the segment and enables the CODM to understand segment profitability based on prior resource allocation decisions. This measure also excludes certain expenses such as exit costs, other severance, and operating expense redeployment activities which may be driven by corporate initiatives or could result in a lack of comparability if included in segment operating income.

The Consumer Money Transfer operating segment facilitates money transfers between two consumers. The segment includes five geographic regions whose functions are primarily related to generating, managing, and maintaining agent relationships and localized marketing activities. The Company includes Branded Digital transactions in its regions. By means of common processes and systems, these regions, including Branded Digital, create one interconnected global network for consumer transactions, thereby constituting one Consumer Money Transfer business and one operating segment.

The Consumer Services segment primarily includes the Company’s bill payment services, money order services, travel money services, media network, prepaid cards, lending partnerships, and digital wallets.

The Company’s segments are reviewed separately below because each segment addresses a different combination of customer groups, distribution networks, and services offered. The business segment measurements provided to, and evaluated by, the Company’s CODM are computed in accordance with the following principles:

•
The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies in the consolidated financial statements within the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.
•
Corporate costs, including overhead expenses, are allocated to the segments primarily based on a percentage of the segments’ revenue compared to total revenue.
•
The CODM does not review total assets by segment and capital expenditures for purposes of assessing segment performance and allocating resources. As such, the disclosure of total assets by segment and capital expenditures have not been included below.
•
All items not included in operating income are excluded from the segments.

The following tables present the Company’s segment results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 (in millions):

(a)
Direct transactional expenses include commissions to agents, bank fees, credit and non-credit losses, and other variable expenses.
(b)
Depreciation and amortization excludes amortization of capitalized contract costs paid to agents and partners, as this amortization is recorded as commissions to agents and partners and is therefore included in direct transactional expenses. Amortization of capitalized contract costs included within direct transactional expenses in the Consumer Money Transfer segment was $10.9 million and $17.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and $22.4 million and $35.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively.
(c)
Other segment items primarily consists of salaries and benefits, professional services, equipment and software expenses, advertising costs, and lease and facilities costs.
(d)
Represents severance costs, which have been excluded from the segments as management excludes severance in making operating decisions, including allocating resources to the Company's segments. Prior to the fourth quarter of 2024, these severance costs were included in the redeployment program costs line item, and therefore, severance costs have been consistently excluded from segment operating income in the tables above.
(e)
Represents the impact from expenses incurred in connection with the Company's acquisition and divestiture activity, including for the review and closing of these transactions, and integration costs directly related to the Company's acquisitions.
(f)
Represents the non-cash amortization and impairment of acquired intangible assets in connection with recent business acquisitions.
(g)
Represents the costs associated with operating the Russian entity. While the Company had previously made a decision to suspend its operations in Russia, in the third quarter of 2024, the Company decided to pursue either liquidating or selling the Russian assets. In the first quarter of 2025, the Company signed a definitive sale agreement subject to regulatory approvals.
(h)
Represented severance, expenses associated with streamlining the Company's organizational and legal structure, and other expenses associated with the Company's program which redeployed investment and expenses in the Company's cost base through optimizations in vendor management, real estate, marketing, and people strategy, as previously announced in October 2022. Expenses incurred under the program also included non-cash impairments of operating lease ROU assets and property and equipment.

 

For all of the items excluded from the Company’s segment operating income results above, the expenses were not included in the measurement of segment operating income provided to the CODM for purposes of performance assessment and resource allocation.

Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]  
Basis of Presentation

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited and were prepared in accordance with the instructions for Form 10‑Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. In compliance with those instructions, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted.

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in this quarterly report are presented on a consolidated basis and include the accounts of the Company and its majority-owned subsidiaries. Results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the entire year. All significant intercompany transactions and accounts have been eliminated as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024 and for all periods presented.

In the opinion of management, these condensed consolidated financial statements include all the normal recurring adjustments necessary to fairly present the Company’s condensed consolidated results of operations, financial position, and cash flows as of June 30, 2025 and for all periods presented. These condensed consolidated financial statements should

be read in conjunction with the Company’s consolidated financial statements within the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10‑K for the year ended December 31, 2024.

Consistent with industry practice, the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets are unclassified due to the short-term nature of the Company’s settlement obligations contrasted with the Company’s ability to invest cash awaiting settlement in long-term investment securities.
Use of Estimates

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2024, the Company adopted a new accounting standard that requires the Company to expand reportable segment disclosures, primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses. The adoption of this standard did not have an impact on the Company's financial position or results of operations. Refer to Note 14 for additional information and the related disclosures.

Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued a new accounting pronouncement regarding income tax disclosures. The standard requires that public entities disclose more consistent and detailed categories in their statutory to effective income tax rate reconciliations and further disaggregate income taxes paid by jurisdiction. The Company is required to adopt the new standard for its 2025 annual reporting. Management is in the process of preparing to comply with the new disclosure requirements.

In November 2024, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued a new accounting pronouncement regarding the disclosure of specified information about certain costs and expenses. The standard requires that public entities disclose certain detailed information about the types of expenses included in the expense captions presented within the consolidated statements of income, provide qualitative descriptions for expenses not separately disaggregated quantitatively, and disclose an entity's definition and total amount of selling expenses. The Company is required to adopt the new standard for its 2027 annual reporting and interim periods thereafter, using either a prospective or retrospective approach. Management is currently evaluating the potential impact that the adoption of this standard will have on the Company's disclosures.

Earnings Per Share

The calculation of basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the period. Outstanding options to purchase Western Union stock and unvested shares of restricted stock are excluded from basic shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if outstanding stock options at the presented dates are exercised and shares of restricted stock have vested, using the treasury stock method. The treasury stock method assumes proceeds from the exercise price of stock options and the unamortized compensation expense of options and restricted stock are available to acquire shares at an average market price throughout the period, and therefore, reduce the dilutive effect.

Investment Securities

Investment Securities

Investment securities included in Settlement assets in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets consist primarily of highly-rated state and municipal debt securities, including fixed-rate term notes. Investment securities are exposed to market risk due to changes in interest rates and credit risk. The Company is required to hold highly-rated, investment grade securities and such investments are restricted to satisfy outstanding settlement obligations in accordance with applicable regulatory requirements.

The Company’s investment securities are classified as available-for-sale and recorded at fair value. Western Union regularly monitors credit risk and attempts to mitigate its exposure by investing in highly-rated securities and through investment diversification.

Unrealized gains on available-for-sale securities are excluded from earnings and presented as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss, net of related deferred taxes. Available-for-sale securities with a fair value below the amortized cost basis are evaluated on an individual basis to determine whether the impairment is due to credit-related factors or noncredit-related factors. Factors that could indicate a credit loss exists include but are not limited to: (i) negative earnings performance, (ii) credit rating downgrades, or (iii) adverse changes in the regulatory or economic environment of the asset. Any impairment that is not credit-related is excluded from earnings and presented as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss, net of related deferred taxes, unless the Company intends to sell the impaired security, or it is more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell the security before recovering its amortized cost basis. Credit-related impairments are recognized immediately as an adjustment to earnings, regardless of whether the Company has the ability or intent to hold the security to maturity, and are limited to the difference between fair value and the amortized cost basis.

Foreign Currency - Derivatives

Foreign Currency Derivatives

The Company’s policy is to use longer duration foreign currency forward contracts, with maturities of up to 36 months at inception and a targeted weighted-average maturity of one to two years, to help mitigate some of the risk that changes in foreign currency exchange rates compared to the United States dollar could have on forecasted revenues denominated in other currencies related to its business. As of June 30, 2025, these foreign currency forward contracts had maturities of a maximum of 36 months with a weighted-average maturity of approximately one year. These contracts are accounted for as cash flow hedges of forecasted revenue, with effectiveness assessed based on changes in the spot rate of the affected currencies during the period of designation and thus time value is excluded from the assessment of effectiveness. The initial value of the excluded components is amortized into Revenues within the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.

The Company also uses short duration foreign currency forward contracts, generally with maturities ranging from a few days to one month, to offset foreign exchange rate fluctuations on settlement assets and obligations between initiation and settlement. In addition, forward contracts, typically with maturities of less than one year at inception, are utilized to offset foreign exchange rate fluctuations on certain foreign currency denominated cash and other asset and liability positions. None of these contracts are designated as accounting hedges.

(a)
Direct transactional expenses include commissions to agents, bank fees, credit and non-credit losses, and other variable expenses.
(b)
Depreciation and amortization excludes amortization of capitalized contract costs paid to agents and partners, as this amortization is recorded as commissions to agents and partners and is therefore included in direct transactional expenses. Amortization of capitalized contract costs included within direct transactional expenses in the Consumer Money Transfer segment was $10.9 million and $17.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and $22.4 million and $35.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively.
(c)
Other segment items primarily consists of salaries and benefits, professional services, equipment and software expenses, advertising costs, and lease and facilities costs.
(d)
Represents severance costs, which have been excluded from the segments as management excludes severance in making operating decisions, including allocating resources to the Company's segments. Prior to the fourth quarter of 2024, these severance costs were included in the redeployment program costs line item, and therefore, severance costs have been consistently excluded from segment operating income in the tables above.
(e)
Represents the impact from expenses incurred in connection with the Company's acquisition and divestiture activity, including for the review and closing of these transactions, and integration costs directly related to the Company's acquisitions.
(f)
Represents the non-cash amortization and impairment of acquired intangible assets in connection with recent business acquisitions.
(g)
Represents the costs associated with operating the Russian entity. While the Company had previously made a decision to suspend its operations in Russia, in the third quarter of 2024, the Company decided to pursue either liquidating or selling the Russian assets. In the first quarter of 2025, the Company signed a definitive sale agreement subject to regulatory approvals.
(h)
Represented severance, expenses associated with streamlining the Company's organizational and legal structure, and other expenses associated with the Company's program which redeployed investment and expenses in the Company's cost base through optimizations in vendor management, real estate, marketing, and people strategy, as previously announced in October 2022. Expenses incurred under the program also included non-cash impairments of operating lease ROU assets and property and equipment.

[1] As of June 30, 2025, the Company’s weighted-average effective rate on total borrowings was approximately 4.5%.
[2] Pursuant to the Company’s commercial paper program, the Company may issue unsecured commercial paper notes in an amount not to exceed $1.6 billion outstanding at any time, reduced to the extent of borrowings outstanding on the Company’s revolving credit facility (“Revolving Credit Facility”). The commercial paper notes may have maturities of up to 397 days from date of issuance. The Company’s commercial paper borrowings as of June 30, 2025 had a weighted-average annual interest rate of approximately 4.6% and a weighted-average term of approximately 1 day.
[3] One of the Company's Eurochange subsidiaries utilizes a short-term revolving credit facility agreement to fund certain operating activities in the United Kingdom. The subsidiary may borrow up to £60 million ($82 million as of June 30, 2025), and the facility expires in February 2030. Drawdowns of the credit facility borrowings are restricted for use in this subsidiary to purchase physical currency or repay existing borrowings on the facility. These credit facility borrowings as of June 30, 2025 had a weighted-average annual interest rate of approximately 5.8%.
[4] Certain proceeds from the term loan facility borrowings were used to repay $500.0 million of the aggregate principal amount of 2.850% unsecured notes due in January 2025.
[5] The difference between the stated interest rate and the effective interest rate is not significant.

Segment Reporting, Expense Information Used by CODM, Description The Company's CODM is the President and Chief Executive Officer. The CODM uses segment operating income or loss to assess performance and allocate resources to the segments. This measure includes all expenses necessary to operate the segment and enables the CODM to understand segment profitability based on prior resource allocation decisions. This measure also excludes certain expenses such as exit costs, other severance, and operating expense redeployment activities which may be driven by corporate initiatives or could result in a lack of comparability if included in segment operating income.

[1] Direct transactional expenses include commissions to agents, bank fees, credit and non-credit losses, and other variable expenses.
[2] Depreciation and amortization excludes amortization of capitalized contract costs paid to agents and partners, as this amortization is recorded as commissions to agents and partners and is therefore included in direct transactional expenses. Amortization of capitalized contract costs included within direct transactional expenses in the Consumer Money Transfer segment was $10.9 million and $17.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and $22.4 million and $35.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively.
[3] Other segment items primarily consists of salaries and benefits, professional services, equipment and software expenses, advertising costs, and lease and facilities costs.
[4] Represented severance, expenses associated with streamlining the Company's organizational and legal structure, and other expenses associated with the Company's program which redeployed investment and expenses in the Company's cost base through optimizations in vendor management, real estate, marketing, and people strategy, as previously announced in October 2022. Expenses incurred under the program also included non-cash impairments of operating lease ROU assets and property and equipment.
[5] Represents severance costs, which have been excluded from the segments as management excludes severance in making operating decisions, including allocating resources to the Company's segments. Prior to the fourth quarter of 2024, these severance costs were included in the redeployment program costs line item, and therefore, severance costs have been consistently excluded from segment operating income in the tables above.
[6] Represents the impact from expenses incurred in connection with the Company's acquisition and divestiture activity, including for the review and closing of these transactions, and integration costs directly related to the Company's acquisitions.
[7] Represents the non-cash amortization and impairment of acquired intangible assets in connection with recent business acquisitions.
[8] Represents the costs associated with operating the Russian entity. While the Company had previously made a decision to suspend its operations in Russia, in the third quarter of 2024, the Company decided to pursue either liquidating or selling the Russian assets. In the first quarter of 2025, the Company signed a definitive sale agreement subject to regulatory approvals.
