Western Union's management believes the non-GAAP financial measures presented provide meaningful supplemental information
regarding our operating results to assist management, investors, analysts, and others in understanding our financial results and to
better analyze trends in our underlying business, because they provide consistency and comparability to prior periods.
These non-GAAP financial measures include revenue change constant currency adjusted; operating margin, excluding Joint Settlement
Agreements (as defined in the notes below) and WU Way business transformation expenses; EBITDA margin; adjusted EBITDA margin,
excluding Joint Settlement Agreements and WU Way business transformation expenses; diluted EPS, excluding Joint Settlement
Agreements and WU Way business transformation expenses; effective tax rate, excluding Joint Settlement Agreements and WU Way
business transformation expenses; cash flows from operating activities, excluding payments for Joint Settlement Agreements and WU
Way business transformation expenses; Consumer-to-Consumer segment revenue change, constant currency adjusted; Consumer-to-
Consumer segment principal per transaction change, constant currency adjusted; Consumer-to-Consumer segment cross-border
principal change, constant currency adjusted; Consumer-to-Consumer segment region and westernunion.com revenue change, constant
currency adjusted; Consumer-to-Business segment revenue change, constant currency adjusted; Business Solutions segment revenue
change, constant currency adjusted; Business Solutions segment EBITDA margin; operating margin outlook, excluding WU Way business
transformation expenses; earnings per share outlook, excluding WU Way business transformation expenses; and effective tax rate
outlook, excluding WU Way business transformation expenses. Although the expenses related to the WU Way are specific to that
initiative, the types of expenses related to the WU Way initiative are similar to expenses that the Company has previously incurred and
can reasonably be expected to incur in the future. Constant currency results assume foreign revenues are translated from foreign
currencies to the U.S. dollar, net of the effect of foreign currency hedges, at rates consistent with those in the prior year.
A non-GAAP financial measure should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the most comparable GAAP financial
measure. A non-GAAP financial measure reflects an additional way of viewing aspects of our operations that, when viewed with our
GAAP results and the reconciliation to the corresponding GAAP financial measure, provide a more complete understanding of our
business. Users of the financial statements are encouraged to review our financial statements and publicly-filed reports in their entirety
and not to rely on any single financial measure. A reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP
financial measures is included below.
All adjusted year-over-year changes were calculated using prior year reported amounts. Amounts included below are in millions, unless
indicated otherwise.

Paymap Settlement Agreement N/A 35.3 N/A N/A 35.3
Operating income, excluding Paymap Settlement Agreement 272.3$ 286.1$ 304.5$ 281.8$ 1,144.7$
(e)
Represents the impact from the settlement agreements related to (1) a Deferred Prosecution Agreement with the United States Department of Justice, and the United States Attorney's Offices for the Eastern and
Middle Districts of Pennsylvania, the Central District of California, and the Southern District of Florida, (2) a Stipulated Order for Permanent Injunction and Final Judgment with the United States Federal Trade
Commission ("FTC"), (3) a Consent to the Assessment of Civil Money Penalty with the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network of the United States Department of Treasury (collectively, the "Joint Settlement
Agreements"), to resolve the respective investigations of those agencies, as described in our Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on January 20, 2017, and related matters. Amounts related
to these matters were recognized in the second, third, and fourth quarters of 2016 and the full year 2016 results. These expenses have been excluded from our segment operating income, as these expenses are
excluded from the measurement of segment operating income provided to the chief operating decision maker for purposes of assessing segment performance and decision making with respect to resource allocation.
Additionally, income tax benefit was adjusted in the fourth quarter of 2016 to reflect the revised determination, based on final agreement terms. We believe that, by excluding the effects of significant charges
associated with the settlement of litigation that can impact operating trends, management and investors are provided with a measure that increases the comparability of our underlying operating results.
Represents the expenses incurred to transform our operating model, focusing on technology transformation, network productivity, customer and agent process optimization, and organizational redesign to better drive
efficiencies and growth initiatives ("WU Way business transformation expenses"•). Amounts related to the WU Way business transformation expenses were recognized beginning in the second quarter of 2016, and
each subsequent quarter. These expenses have been excluded from our segment operating income, as these expenses are excluded from the measurement of segment operating income provided to the chief operating
decision maker for purposes of assessing segment performance and decision making with respect to resource allocation. We believe that, by excluding the effects of significant charges associated with the
transformation of our operating model that can impact operating trends, management and investors are provided with a measure that increases the comparability of our other underlying operating results. Although the
expenses related to the WU Way are specific to that initiative, the types of expenses related to the WU Way initiative are similar to expenses that the Company has previously incurred and can reasonably be
expected to incur in the future.
Earnings before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization ("EBITDA") results from taking operating income and adjusting for depreciation and amortization expenses. EBITDA results provide an additional
performance measurement calculation which helps neutralize the operating income effect of assets acquired in prior periods.
Represents the impact from the fluctuation in exchange rates between all foreign currency denominated amounts and the United States dollar. Constant currency results exclude any benefit or loss caused by foreign
exchange fluctuations between foreign currencies and the United States dollar, net of foreign currency hedges, which would not have occurred if there had been a constant exchange rate. We believe that this measure
provides management and investors with information about operating results and trends that eliminates currency volatility and provides greater clarity regarding, and increases the comparability of, our underlying
results and trends.
Represents the impact from a settlement agreement reached with the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau regarding the Equity Accelerator service of Paymap, Inc., a subsidiary of the Company (the "Paymap
Settlement Agreement"), included in full year 2015 results. We believe that, by excluding the effects of significant charges associated with the settlement of litigation that can impact operating trends, management
and investors are provided with a measure that increases the comparability of our underlying operating results. See below for reconciliation of prior year operating income, excluding Paymap Settlement Agreement.

Western Union's management believes the non-GAAP financial measures presented provide meaningful supplemental information regarding our operating results to assist management, investors, analysts, and others in understanding our financial results and to better analyze trends in our underlying business, because they provide consistency and comparability to prior periods. These non-GAAP financial measures include revenue change constant currency adjusted; operating margin, excluding Joint Settlement Agreements (as defined in the notes below) and WU Way business transformation expenses; EBITDA margin; adjusted EBITDA margin, excluding Joint Settlement Agreements and WU Way business transformation expenses; diluted EPS, excluding Joint Settlement Agreements and WU Way business transformation expenses; effective tax rate, excluding Joint Settlement Agreements and WU Way business transformation expenses; cash flows from operating activities, excluding payments for Joint Settlement Agreements and WU Way business transformation expenses; Consumer-to-Consumer segment revenue change, constant currency adjusted; Consumer-to- Consumer segment principal per transaction change, constant currency adjusted; Consumer-to-Consumer segment cross-border principal change, constant currency adjusted; Consumer-to-Consumer segment region and westernunion.com revenue change, constant currency adjusted; Consumer-to-Business segment revenue change, constant currency adjusted; Business Solutions segment revenue change, constant currency adjusted; Business Solutions segment EBITDA margin; operating margin outlook, excluding WU Way business transformation expenses; earnings per share outlook, excluding WU Way business transformation expenses; and effective tax rate outlook, excluding WU Way business transformation expenses. Although the expenses related to the WU Way are specific to that initiative, the types of expenses related to the WU Way initiative are similar to expenses that the Company has previously incurred and can reasonably be expected to incur in the future. Constant currency results assume foreign revenues are translated from foreign currencies to the U.S. dollar, net of the effect of foreign currency hedges, at rates consistent with those in the prior year. A non-GAAP financial measure should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the most comparable GAAP financial measure. A non-GAAP financial measure reflects an additional way of viewing aspects of our operations that, when viewed with our GAAP results and the reconciliation to the corresponding GAAP financial measure, provide a more complete understanding of our business. Users of the financial statements are encouraged to review our financial statements and publicly-filed reports in their entirety and not to rely on any single financial measure. A reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures is included below. All adjusted year-over-year changes were calculated using prior year reported amounts. Amounts included below are in millions, unless indicated otherwise. Non-GAAP Measures 20

Amounts related to these matters were recognized in the second, third, and fourth quarters of 2016 and the full year 2016 results. These expenses have been excluded from our segment operating income, as these expenses are excluded from the measurement of segment operating income provided to the chief operating decision maker for purposes of assessing segment performance and decision making with respect to resource allocation. Additionally, income tax benefit was adjusted in the fourth quarter of 2016 to reflect the revised determination, based on final agreement terms. We believe that, by excluding the effects of significant charges associated with the settlement of litigation that can impact operating trends, management and investors are provided with a measure that increases the comparability of our underlying operating results. Represents the expenses incurred to transform our operating model, focusing on technology transformation, network productivity, customer and agent process optimization, and organizational redesign to better drive efficiencies and growth initiatives ("WU Way business transformation expenses"•). Amounts related to the WU Way business transformation expenses were recognized beginning in the second quarter of 2016, and each subsequent quarter. These expenses have been excluded from our segment operating income, as these expenses are excluded from the measurement of segment operating income provided to the chief operating decision maker for purposes of assessing segment performance and decision making with respect to resource allocation. We believe that, by excluding the effects of significant charges associated with the transformation of our operating model that can impact operating trends, management and investors are provided with a measure that increases the comparability of our other underlying operating results. Although the expenses related to the WU Way are specific to that initiative, the types of expenses related to the WU Way initiative are similar to expenses that the Company has previously incurred and can reasonably be expected to incur in the future. Earnings before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization ("EBITDA") results from taking operating income and adjusting for depreciation and amortization expenses. EBITDA results provide an additional performance measurement calculation which helps neutralize the operating income effect of assets acquired in prior periods. Represents the impact from the fluctuation in exchange rates between all foreign currency denominated amounts and the United States dollar. Constant currency results exclude any benefit or loss caused by foreign exchange fluctuations between foreign currencies and the United States dollar, net of foreign currency hedges, which would not have occurred if there had been a constant exchange rate. We believe that this measure provides management and investors with information about operating results and trends that eliminates currency volatility and provides greater clarity regarding, and increases the comparability of, our underlying results and trends. Represents the impact from a settlement agreement reached with the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau regarding the Equity Accelerator service of Paymap, Inc., a subsidiary of the Company (the "Paymap Settlement Agreement"), included in full year 2015 results. We believe that, by excluding the effects of significant charges associated with the settlement of litigation that can impact operating trends, management and investors are provided with a measure that increases the comparability of our underlying operating results. See below for reconciliation of prior year operating income, excluding Paymap Settlement Agreement.
