BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND BUSINESS	BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND BUSINESS International Money Express, Inc. (the “Company” or “us” or “we”) operates as a money transmitter between the United States of America (“United States” or “U.S.”), Canada, Spain, Italy and Germany primarily to Mexico, Guatemala and other countries in Latin America, Europe, Africa and Asia through a network of authorized agents located in various unaffiliated retail establishments and 118 Company-operated stores throughout those jurisdictions. Current political, social, economic and market conditions in the United States, including recent economic, trade and immigration enforcement actions taken by the current administration in the U.S., as well as in foreign countries, including those that are destinations for money transfers or in which we currently operate, remain volatile. There is uncertainty as to the economic and financial impact of such conditions. On August 10, 2025, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”), by and among the Company, The Western Union Company, a Delaware corporation (“Western Union”), and Ivey Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of Western Union (“Merger Sub”). Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth therein, Merger Sub will merge with and into the Company (the “Merger”), with the Company continuing as the surviving corporation in the Merger and becoming a wholly owned subsidiary of Western Union. The Merger Agreement provides that each share of the Company’s common stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger (subject to limited exceptions, such as treasury shares or shares as to which dissenters’ rights have been properly exercised in accordance with Delaware law) will be cancelled and converted into the right to receive $16.00 per share in cash, without interest. Consummation of the Merger is subject to various remaining customary closing conditions, including: (i) the absence of any judgment by any governmental authority of competent jurisdiction or any applicable law that enjoins, restrains or otherwise makes illegal, prevents or prohibits consummation of the Merger, (ii) the receipt of applicable consents, approvals or other clearances required to be obtained under the Merger Agreement, including with respect to the Company’s or its subsidiaries’ money transmitter licenses, and (iii) other customary closing conditions. In addition, the consummation of the Merger was conditioned upon (i) the expiration or termination of the applicable waiting period under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended (the “HSR Act”), which waiting period expired on October 6, 2025, and (ii) approval of the stockholders of the Company, which approval was received at a special meeting of stockholders of the Company on December 9, 2025. To date, money transmission regulators in 48 applicable U.S. states and territories have provided their approval of or non-objection to the Merger, and approval or non-objection is currently pending with the remaining 4 U.S. states and territories. Additionally, the parties have received approval from the United Kingdom Financial Conduct Authority and, therefore, the only approval from international money transmission regulators that remains pending is from the Bank of Spain. The Company cannot predict with certainty whether and when any of the remaining required closing conditions will be satisfied or if the Merger will close but currently anticipates that the Merger will be consummated in the second quarter of 2026. The accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Company include the accounts of International Money Express, Inc. and other entities in which the Company has a controlling financial interest. All significant inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. (“GAAP”).
