NCR Voyix implements multi-phase cost reductions program

“Today’s announcements accelerate NCR Voyix’s long-term strategic objective to optimize the Company’s operations and drive shareholder value. The initial part of this multi-faceted plan was achieved in October 2023 with the completion of the spin-off of the Company’s ATM business into an independent publicly traded company, NCR Atleos. Following the spin-off, the NCR Voyix Board continued efforts to streamline the business and sharpen the Company’s focus to better serve its customers and drive value for shareholders. The proceeds of the Digital Banking transaction will primarily be used to reduce leverage on NCR Voyix’s balance sheet. The Company expects its net leverage ratio to be approximately 2.0x net debt/Adjusted EBITDA on a pro forma basis after the completion of the aforementioned transactions and the pay-down of a portion of its debt. The Company is also executing a multi-phase cost alignment program that began with the elimination of approximately $75 million in annualized payroll costs, including operational and capitalized costs, as of the end of the second quarter. Further work is underway to identify an additional $30 million of annualized non-payroll spend expected to be eliminated from operational and capital costs once the Digital Banking transaction has closed and the outsourced design and manufacturing agreement has been implemented. This program contemplates an ongoing assessment of all costs. Together, it is anticipated that these actions will significantly reduce leverage, moderate the variability of hardware-related revenue beginning in 2025, align NCR Voyix’s current operating costs to the new structure, and position the Company for accelerated revenue growth and margin expansion.”
