First Quarter Revenue Less Ancillary Services Increased 43.0% Year-over-Year
Previous Fiscal Year 2026 Revenue Less Ancillary Services growth guidance raised by 300 bps at midpoint, Adjusted EBITDA margin growth guidance raised by 25 bps at midpoint
Announces up to $50 million accelerated share repurchase (ASR) program
Boston, MA – May 5, 2026: Flywire Corporation (Nasdaq: FLYW) (“Flywire” or the “Company”), a global payments enablement and software company, today reported financial results for its first quarter ended March 31, 2026.
“We started 2026 with a strong first quarter — above expectations on revenue and adjusted EBITDA, with new client wins across all four verticals," said Mike Massaro, Flywire’s CEO. “The results reflect what we have been building toward: a durable, scalable business, diversified across verticals and geographies - and one that is increasingly resilient and increasingly profitable.”

Guidance
”Today we are announcing an accelerated share repurchase program of up to $50 million — the single largest capital return action in Flywire's history as a public company. The ASR program reflects our conviction in the intrinsic value of the business and our view that the current share price represents a compelling opportunity," said Flywire's CFO, Cosmin Pitigoi. “Q1 performance was broad-based and exceeded expectations. Gross profit dollar growth converted into adjusted EBITDA margin expansion, demonstrating the operating leverage in this model. We are raising our full-year guidance on the back of these strong results.”
Based on information available as of May 5, 2026, Flywire anticipates the following results for the second quarter and fiscal year 2026*.

Fiscal Year 2026 |
FX-Neutral Revenue Less Ancillary Services Growth |
18-24% YoY |
Adjusted EBITDA Margin Growth |
+175 to 375 bps YoY |

Second Quarter 2026 |

*Flywire has not provided a quantitative reconciliation of forecasted FX-Neutral Revenue Less Ancillary Services Growth to forecasted GAAP Revenue Growth or forecasted Adjusted EBITDA Margin Growth to forecasted GAAP Net Income Margin Growth or to forecasted GAAP net income (loss) before income taxes growth within this earnings release because Flywire is unable, without making unreasonable efforts, to calculate certain reconciling items with confidence. These items include, but are not limited to, income taxes, which are directly impacted by unpredictable fluctuations in the market price of Flywire's stock and foreign currency exchange rates.
These statements are forward-looking, and actual results may differ materially. Refer to the “Safe Harbor Statement” below for information on the factors that could cause Flywire’s actual results to differ materially from these forward-looking statements.
Conference Call
The Company will host a conference call to discuss first quarter financial results today at 5:00 pm ET. Hosting the call will be Mike Massaro, CEO, Rob Orgel, President and COO, and Cosmin Pitigoi, CFO. The conference call can be accessed live via webcast from the Company's investor relations website at https://ir.flywire.com/. A replay will be available on the investor relations website following the call.
Note Regarding Share Repurchase Program
Repurchases under the Company’s share repurchase program (the Repurchase Program) may be made from time to time through open market purchases, in privately negotiated transactions or by other means, including through accelerated share repurchase transactions or the use of trading plans intended to qualify under Rule 10b5-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, in accordance with applicable securities laws and other restrictions, including Rule 10b-18. The timing, value and number of shares repurchased will be determined by the Company in its discretion and will be based on various factors, including an evaluation of current and future capital needs, current and forecasted cash flows, the Company’s capital structure, cost of capital and prevailing stock prices, general market and economic conditions, applicable legal requirements, and compliance with covenants in the Company’s credit facility that may limit share repurchases based on defined leverage ratios. The Repurchase Program does not obligate the Company to purchase a specific number of, or any, shares. The Repurchase Program does not expire and may be modified, suspended, or terminated at any time without notice at the Company’s discretion.
Key Operating Metrics and Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Flywire uses non-GAAP financial measures to supplement financial information presented on a GAAP basis. The Company believes that excluding certain items from its GAAP results allows management to better understand its consolidated financial performance from period to period and better project its future consolidated financial performance as forecasts are developed at a level of detail different from that used to prepare GAAP-based financial measures. Moreover, Flywire believes these non-GAAP financial measures provide its stakeholders with useful information to help them evaluate the Company’s operating results by facilitating an enhanced understanding of the Company’s operating performance and enabling them to make more meaningful period-to-period comparisons. There are limitations to the use of the non-GAAP financial measures presented here. Flywire’s non-GAAP financial measures may not be
comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. Other companies, including companies in Flywire’s industry, may calculate non-GAAP financial measures differently, limiting the usefulness of those measures for comparative purposes.
Flywire uses supplemental measures of its performance, which are derived from its consolidated financial information, but which are not presented in its consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP. These non-GAAP financial measures include the following:
These non-GAAP financial measures are not meant to be considered as indicators of performance in isolation from or as a substitute for the Company’s revenue, gross profit, gross margin or net income (loss), or operating expenses prepared in accordance with GAAP and should be read only in conjunction with financial information presented on a GAAP basis. Reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure are presented below. Flywire encourages you to review these reconciliations in conjunction with the presentation of the non-GAAP financial measures for each of the periods presented. In future fiscal periods, Flywire may exclude such items and may incur income and expenses similar to these excluded items.
Flywire has not provided a quantitative reconciliation of forecasted FX-Neutral Revenue Less Ancillary Services Growth to forecasted GAAP Revenue Growth or forecasted Adjusted EBITDA Margin Growth to forecasted GAAP Net Income Margin Growth or to forecasted GAAP net income (loss) before income taxes growth within this earnings release because it is unable, without making unreasonable efforts, to calculate certain reconciling items with confidence. These items include, but are not limited to, income taxes, which are directly impacted by unpredictable fluctuations in the market price of Flywire's stock and foreign currency exchange rates. For figures in this press release reported on an "FX-Neutral basis,” Flywire calculates the year-over-year impact of foreign currency movements using prior period weighted average foreign currency exchange rates.

Q1 2026 Earnings Supplement May 5, 2026 Exhibit 99.2
Disclosures This presentation includes forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. All statements other than statements of historical facts contained in this presentation, including statements regarding the outcome of the operational and portfolio reviews, the costs, cash outlays, benefits, timing and financial impacts of the actions that may be taken or transactions entered into in connection with the operational and portfolio reviews, Flywire’s ability to successfully implement Flywire’s business plan, future results of operations and financial position, business strategy and plans, market growth and Flywire’s objectives for future operations, are forward -looking statements. The words “believe,” “may,” “will,” “estimate,” “continue,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “expect,” “plans,” “potential,” “seeks,” “projects,” “should,” “could” and “would” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward -looking statements, although not all forward-looking statements contain these identifying words. Flywire has based these forward-looking statements largely on Flywire’s current expectations and projections about future events and financial trends that Flywire believes may affect Flywire’s financial condition, results of operations, business strategy, short-term and long-term business operations and objectives, and financial needs. These forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks, uncertainties and assumptions that are described in the "Risk Factors" and "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" sections of Flywire's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, which is on file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and available on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov. Additional factors may be described in those sections of Flywire’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2026, expected to be filed with the SEC in the second quarter of 2026. In light of these risks, uncertainties and assumptions, the forward -looking events and circumstances discussed in this presentation may not occur and actual results could differ materially and adversely from those anticipated or implied in the forward-looking statements. You should not rely upon forward-looking statements as predictions of future events or performance. In addition, projections, assumptions and estimates of the future performance of the industries in which Flywire operates and the markets it serves are inherently imprecise and subject to a high degree of uncertainty and risk. All financial projections contained in this presentation are forward -looking statements and are based on Flywire’s management’s assessment of such matters. It is unlikely, however, that the assumptions on which Flywire has based its projections will prove to be fully correct or that the projected figures will be attained. Flywire’s actual future results may differ materially from Flywire’s projections, and it makes no express or implied representation or warranty as to attainability of the results reflected in these projections. Investments in Flywire’s securities involve a high degree of risk and should be regarded as speculative. The information in this presentation is provided only as of May 5, 2026, and Flywire undertakes no obligation to update any forward-looking statements contained in this presentation on account of new information, future events, or otherwise, except as required by law. This presentation contains certain non-GAAP financial measures as defined by SEC rules. Flywire has provided a reconciliation of those measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures, which is available in the Appendix. The company has not provided a quantitative reconciliation of forecasted FX-Neutral Revenue Less Ancillary Services Growth to forecasted GAAP Revenue Growth or forecasted Adjusted EBITDA Margin Growth to forecasted GAAP Net Income Margin Growth or to forecasted GAAP net income (loss) before income taxes within this presentation because Flywire is unable, without making unreasonable efforts, to calculate certain reconciling items with confidence. These items include but are not limited to income taxes which are directly impacted by unpredictable fluctuations in the market price of the company's stock and in foreign exchange rates.
We Are Built for Complexity Where others avoided complexity in payments, we built for it. This is the basis of our differentiation. The harder the workflow, the fewer who can follow. Regulatory Depth Compliance built in across dozens of jurisdictions. Every new regulation raises the barrier to entry. Deep Software Integrations ERPs, SIS, EHR, booking systems. Years of technical investment and integration build FLYW stickiness. Global + Local Payments Multi-currency, multi-method, multi-rail serving 240+ countries and territories. MOR and PayFac where others are unwilling to go.
Invoice-to-Cash Automation B2B payments remain manual and inefficient at scale Flywire automates invoice-to-cash with software plus payments Long-term expansion as AR and AP workflows deepen All Tuition, One Platform Global tuition payments are fragmented and high-friction Flywire unifies all tuition — domestic and international — on one platform High-90s retention and growing share despite macro headwinds Complex, High-Value Global Transactions High-value travel transactions require precision and compliance Flywire embeds directly into booking and settlement infrastructure Mission-critical once live, with strong unit economics and low churn Optimizing Hospital Yield Hospital revenue cycles are broken and underdigitized Flywire connects affordability, payments & EHR in one platform patient experience Improves yield, cash flow timing, and patient experience Serving Large, Underserved & Structurally Complex Verticals Where complexity creates opportunity Travel B2B Healthcare Education Massive TAMs Long-Term Structural Growth Complexity That Generic Payment Infrastructure Can’t Serve + +
We deliver exceptional technology and client service, removing complexity so our clients improve how they get paid. Why We Win 1 2 EDU Travel B2B HC We embed into mission-critical workflows Once live, replacing Flywire often means a major systems project — we become core financial infrastructure. SIS + ERP, high-90s retention Embedded in settlement Deep AR workflow integration EHR- integrated billing We remove complexity for our clients We absorb the global, regulatory, and workflow complexity our clients would otherwise carry themselves. 40% fewer support inquiries ~6 hrs/week saved AR automation gains 30% drop in staff effort We improve how clients get paid Higher completion, better conversion, more revenue recovered — measurable across every vertical. $360M+ collection uplift for clients, ~90% completion Higher auth rates Faster invoice- to-cash +12% collections, -20% bad debt We create durable, expanding economics Clients who experience this ROI rarely leave. Software landings + payment attach compounds over time. Steady land & expand model Mission- critical once embedded Long-term ERP expansion Sticky software-led revenue 1 2 3 4
Our FlyMates Global Payment Platform Industry- Leading Software Switching from Flywire = major systems overhaul Scale unlocks deeper capabilities over time Domain knowledge compounds with tenure Vertical software deeply integrated into clients’ core systems Vertical experts with in-region presence across 16 countries How We Do It Three assets that are rare, difficult to replicate, and only strengthen over time Multi-rail, regulated flows across 240+ countries — built on scale and trust Can’t be replicated by off the shelf tools Deep SIS, ERP, and EHR integrations MOR + PayFac capabilities Serves complex regulated payer journeys others can't True vertical experts, not generalists In -region presence globally + UNIQUE DURABLE +
The Proof is in the Client Repeatable ROI: When we absorb complexity, our clients grow EDUCATION | Payments Platform New Zealand THE PROBLEM Visa-critical bottleneck: manual reconciliation delayed payment receipts by days, stalling student visa applications and threatening enrollment.

CASE STUDY THE CHALLENGE Already using Sertifi for contract workflows but needed faster deposit collection and streamlined payment reconciliation Already using Sertifi for contracts, Marriott Austin South expanded into Flywire payments to connect contract signing directly to deposit collection—reducing friction, accelerating cash flow, and improving sales efficiency. CASE STUDY Before Flywire With Flywire Land & Expand with Marriott Austin South Contract workflows digitized, but payments remained manual and disconnected Delays between contract signature and deposit collection Continued reliance on emails and follow-ups for payments Limited visibility across contracts, payments, and reconciliation Connected contracts → payments in a single workflow Deposit turnaround improved from 2–5 days → within hours Reduced manual follow-ups and administrative burden Centralized reporting across sales and finance Faster sales cycles and improved ability to hit revenue targets EXPANSION WITH FLYWIRE Added integrated payments to existing Sertifi workflow and unified contracts, payments, and reporting in one platform We have very aggressive goals, and we have been able to hit our numbers with more ease because of Sertifi. Since requesting deposits alongside the contract, turnarounds have gone from 2-5 business days to within hours. Amy Johnson, Area Associate Director of Sales, Marriott Austin South

FY 2026 Guidance Assumptions EDU Macro Assumptions (Unchanged) Revenue Approx. 1.5% inorganic growth from Sertifi. Approx. 3-4% coming from payment processing ramps. Gross Margins Adjusted Gross Profit margin to decline 200-300 bps in FY2026 due to payment processing ramp. Excl ramp, GM % decline would be 100-200 bps for FY26, and exiting into 2027 in the normal ~100-200 bps annual range. aEBITDA (%) Improved productivity & operating leverage, supporting our ability to grow operating expenses more efficiently relative to gross profit. 2026 Guidance Context North America U.S. visas down 30%; CAN visas down 10%. Offset by new client growth & upsells to domestic payments. US education revenue to grow LSD % in 2026. CAN EDU expected to grow > 10% YoY. EMEA Assuming flat visa growth in the UK. Continued strong UK & EMEA revenue growth (at or above company average) from further market share gains. APAC Assuming flat visas in AUS, while still assuming modest LSD revenue growth. Watching tighter visa requirements for Indian students.
