2024 Acquisitions

In March 2024, the Company acquired 70% of the outstanding stock of Zapay, a Brazil-based digital consumer mobility

solution for paying vehicle-related taxes and compliance fees, for approximately $59.5 million, net of cash. As part of the

agreement, the Company has the right to acquire the remainder of Zapay in four years from the acquisition date. The majority

investment in Zapay further scales the Company's Vehicle Payments business in Brazil. The Company preliminarily recorded

goodwill of approximately $73.2 million representing the strategic benefits of the majority investment in Zapay, which further

scales the Company's Vehicle Payments business in Brazil. None of the goodwill attributable to the acquisition of Zapay is

expected to be deductible for tax purposes.

In July 2024, the Company acquired 100% of the stock of Paymerang, a U.S.-based leader in accounts payables automation

solutions, for approximately $179.2 million, net of cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash acquired of $309 million. The

Company preliminarily recorded goodwill of approximately $308.1 million representing the strategic benefits of the acquisition,

which expands Corpay's presence in several markets, including education, healthcare, hospitality and manufacturing. None of

the goodwill attributable to the acquisition of Paymerang is expected to be deductible for tax purposes.

In December 2024, the Company acquired 100% of GPS Capital Markets, LLC ("GPS") for approximately $576.2 million, net

of cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash acquired of $190.7 million. As the Company acquired a single member LLC,

the acquisition allowed for all U.S. assets to be stepped-up to fair value at the acquisition date and goodwill to be deductible for

federal income tax purposes. GPS provides business-to-business cross-border and treasury management solutions to upper

middle market companies, primarily in the U.S. The Company preliminarily recorded goodwill of approximately $329.2 million

representing the strategic benefits of the acquisition of GPS, which further scales the Company's cross-border solution. All of

the goodwill attributable to the acquisition of GPS is expected to be deductible for tax purposes.

The aggregate consideration paid for these acquisitions was approximately $814.9 million, net of cash and cash equivalents and

restricted cash of $509.0 million. The Company financed the acquisitions using a combination of available cash and borrowings

under its existing credit facility. Results from these acquisitions have been included in the Company's consolidated results from

the respective date of each acquisition. Results from the Zapay acquisition have been included in the Company's Vehicle

Payments segment and the results of both Paymerang and GPS have been included in the Company's Corporate Payments

segment. In connection with certain of the 2024 acquisitions, the Company signed noncompete agreements valued at

approximately $26.6 million, which were accounted for separately from the business acquisition and recorded within other

intangibles, net in the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets.

All of the 2024 acquisitions are accounted for as business combinations. The primary areas of the preliminary acquisition

accounting that are not yet finalized relate to the following: (i) finalizing the review and valuation of intangible assets, including

key assumptions, inputs and estimates, and certain useful life assumptions, (ii) compiling and reviewing customer deposits

records, (iii) finalizing the Company's estimate of the impact of acquisition accounting on deferred income taxes or liabilities,

(iv) finalizing the Company's review of certain working capital accounts acquired, (v) finalizing the evaluation and valuation of

certain legal matters and/or other loss contingencies, including those that the Company may not yet be aware of but meet the

requirement to qualify as a pre-acquisition contingency, and (vi) finalizing the Company's estimate of the fair value of the non-

controlling interest for Zapay. The provisional estimated noncontrolling interest of Zapay was recorded at fair value.

PayByPhone Technologies, Inc., the world's second largest mobile parking operator, for approximately $301.9 million, net of

cash. Each of these 2023 acquisitions provide incremental geographic expansion of our products, with PayByPhone specifically

intended to progress the Company's broader strategy to transform our vehicle payments business. Results from these

acquisitions have been included in the Company's consolidated results from the respective date of each acquisition. Results

from Global Reach are included in the Company's Corporate Payments segment and the results for Mina Digital Limited,

Business Gateway AG and PayByPhone are included in the Company's Vehicle Payments segment.

The aggregate consideration paid for these acquisitions was approximately $437.0 million (inclusive of the $8.5 million

previously-held equity method investment in Mina), net of cash of $117 million. The Company financed the acquisitions using

a combination of available cash and borrowings under its existing credit facility. Any noncompete agreements signed in

conjunction with these acquisitions were accounted for separately from the business acquisition.

Acquisition accounting for the 2023 acquisitions was finalized during the first quarter of 2024 (for Global Reach, Mina and

Business Gateway AG) and during the third quarter of 2024 (for PaybyPhone) as the measurement periods closed. There were

no material measurement period adjustments recorded during 2024 related to the 2023 acquisitions.
