NOTE 2 – SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

a.    Principles of consolidation, basis of presentation and accounting principles:

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) in the United States of America (hereafter – U.S. GAAP) and include the accounts of Payoneer Global Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

The consolidated interim financial information herein is unaudited; however, such information reflects all adjustments (consisting of normal, recurring adjustments), which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of results for the interim period. The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. The year-end condensed balance sheet data was derived from audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2024, but does not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These unaudited financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto of Payoneer Global Inc. and its subsidiaries.

b.    Use of estimates in the preparation of financial statements:

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant items subject to such estimates and assumptions include, but are not limited to, allowance for capital advance receivables, income taxes, goodwill, revenue recognition, stock-based compensation, contingent consideration associated with M&A, and loss contingencies.

c.    Stock-based compensation:

As further discussed in Note 18, in February 2025, the Company granted performance stock units (“PSUs”) under its Omnibus Stock Incentive Plan.

PSUs are accounted for using the grant date fair value method, based on the grant date share price. The Company recognizes the expense over the requisite service period using a graded vesting model. For unvested awards with performance conditions, the Company assesses the probability of attaining the performance conditions at each reporting period. Awards in respect of which attainment is deemed probable are recognized as expenses over the requisite service period.

NOTE 2 – SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued):

d.    Indefinite-lived intangible asset:

Indefinite-lived intangible asset consists of a payment license recognized in the Payeco Finance Information Holding Corporation (“PayEco”) acquisition. The indefinite-lived intangible asset is not amortized, but is tested for impairment annually, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the asset might be impaired. The impairment assessment begins with a qualitative evaluation to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of the indefinite-lived intangible asset is less than its carrying amount. If this threshold is met, the Company performs a quantitative assessment, comparing the fair value of the asset to its carrying amount. The indefinite-lived intangible asset is considered impaired if the carrying value exceeds the fair value.

The fair value of the indefinite-lived intangible asset is estimated using a discounted cash flow method. The discounted cash flow method, a form of the income approach, uses expected future operating results and a market participant discount rate. Failure to achieve these expected results, changes in the discount rate or market pricing metrics, may cause a future impairment of the indefinite-lived intangible asset.

e.    Customer funds and investments

As previously disclosed during the quarter ended September 30, 2024, the Company identified an error in its condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2024, and in its statements of cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2024. Specifically, the Company incorrectly classified $225,000 of customer funds invested in term deposits with maturities greater than one year as current customer funds on the condensed consolidated balance sheet, rather than as non-current customer funds. In addition, the Company incorrectly classified $300,000 of term deposits in the basis of cash, cash equivalents, restricted deposits, and customer funds on the statement of cash flows, rather than as investing cash flows.

In connection with the Company’s evaluation of these errors during the quarter ended September 30, 2024, management, in accordance SAB No. 108, “Considering the Effects of Prior Year Misstatements when Quantifying Misstatements in Current Year Financial Statements”, determined that these adjustments were not material to the previously issued financial statements. In the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2024 filed with this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the Company has correctly presented $300,000 in customer funds invested in term deposits in accordance with the statement of cash flows treatment described in the preceding paragraph. In the condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2024 and statements of cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 filed with the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2024 and in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company correctly presented $225,000 and $300,000 in customer funds invested in term deposits in accordance with the balance sheet and statement of cash flows treatment described in the preceding paragraph. This error had no impact on the previously issued condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income or condensed consolidated statements of changes in shareholders’ equity and did not impact any financial liquidity covenants.

FASB Standards issued, but not adopted as of June 30, 2025

In 2023, the FASB issued guidance, ASU 2023-09, which modifies the rules on income tax disclosures to require entities to disclose (1) specific categories in the rate reconciliation, (2) the income or loss from continuing operations before income tax expense or benefit (separated between domestic and foreign) and (3) income tax expense or benefit from continuing operations (separated by federal, state and foreign). It also requires entities to disclose their income tax payments (net of refunds received) to international, federal, state and local jurisdictions, among other changes. The guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024, and can be applied prospectively with the option for retrospective application to all prior periods presented in the financial statements, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact of adopting this new guidance on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In 2024, the FASB issued guidance, ASU 2024-03, which requires the disaggregated disclosure of certain costs and expenses on an interim and annual basis. The new standard is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026 and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2027 and can be applied prospectively with the option for retrospective application to all prior periods presented in the financial statements, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact of adopting this new guidance on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
