TSYS reported results for the second quarter of 2018.

"We were very pleased with the performance and momentum of the second quarter as all three of our segments continue to deliver exceptional results. This performance enables us to again raise our guidance for the year while continuing to invest for the long term in preparation for our solid pipeline of new business," said M. Troy Woods, chairman, president and chief executive officer of TSYS.

• Net income attributable to TSYS common shareholders was $142.4 million, an increase of 23.8%. Diluted EPS were $0.78, an increase of 25.0%.

• Adjusted earnings (non-GAAP) were $203.8 million, an increase of 28.8%. Adjusted diluted EPS (non-GAAP) were $1.11, an increase of 30.0%.

(1) On January 1, 2018, TSYS adopted Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 606 "Revenue from Contracts with Customers" using the modified retrospective transition method. The most significant impact of adopting ASC 606 in 2018 is primarily the result of gross versus net presentation of interchange and payment network fees. In 2018, these fees collected on behalf of the payment networks and card issuers are presented "net" of the amounts paid to them, as opposed to the "gross" presentation for certain of these fees in 2017.
