Paysafe Announces New CEO

Former FIS President and Fintech Industry Leader, Bruce Lowthers, Appointed Chief Executive Officer of Paysafe with Mandate to Scale the Company; Succeeds Philip McHugh

Company Reaffirms Guidance for First Quarter and Full Year 2022

Paysafe Limited (“Paysafe” or the “Company”) (NYSE: PSFE) (PSFE.WS), a leading specialized payments platform, today announced that fintech industry leader, Bruce Lowthers, has been appointed as Chief Executive Officer and Executive Director of Paysafe. Lowthers, who will join the company by May 1, 2022, succeeds Philip McHugh, who is stepping down as CEO and as a member of the Company’s Board of Directors. The CEO transition builds on the recent appointment of Daniel Henson as Non-Executive Chairman in March.

Throughout his career, Lowthers has earned a strong reputation as a results-focused leader who has driven transformation, innovated at speed and enhanced customer experiences for multiple global organizations. He joins Paysafe after a 15-year tenure at FIS, one of the world’s leading fintech companies, where he modernized and accelerated the growth of the Fortune 250 company.

Daniel Henson, Chairman of the Paysafe Board, commented: “Bruce is an exceptional executive whose proven track record of driving sustained results and enterprise value is second to none. In particular, he has successfully scaled and transformed many global organizations. Paysafe is at an exciting inflection point on its journey and we are confident Bruce is the right leader to take it to the next level of growth.”

Bruce Lowthers commented: “Paysafe has a highly differentiated and innovative payments offering and is at the forefront of enabling improved payments experiences for both businesses and consumers around the world. I am excited by the significant growth opportunities ahead for Paysafe and by the financial outcomes and value we can achieve for our customers, employees, and shareholders as we scale the global business. I am thrilled to be joining the talented Paysafe team at such a pivotal time!”

Lowthers succeeds Philip McHugh, who led Paysafe through the pandemic and took the company public, positioning it for its next phase of growth.

Daniel Henson added: “On behalf of the Board, I want to thank Philip for his leadership over the past three years. He has taken Paysafe public, expanded its footprint and established value-added relationships while upgrading the Company’s product and tech capabilities. The strong foundation Philip and team have put in place sets Paysafe up for sustainable, long-term growth. We are very grateful for his dedication to the Company and thank him for his service.”

Philip McHugh said: “It has been a real privilege to lead the transformation at Paysafe over the past few years and work with so many talented colleagues. Bruce and I know each other well, he’s a great leader and I’m excited to see where he can take Paysafe. I want to personally thank the team and wish Bruce, the Board and the entire Paysafe community, all the very best for the future.”

Paysafe reaffirms its revenue and adjusted EBITDA guidance for the first quarter and full year 2022, previously announced on March 2, 2022. Paysafe plans to release its first quarter financial results on Wednesday, May 11, 2022.

Statement Regarding Non-GAAP Financial Measures
