FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 provides a “safe harbor” for statements that are forward-looking and are not statements of historical facts. This Quarterly Report includes forward-looking statements. Any statements in this Quarterly Report that are not statements of historical facts may be deemed to be forward-looking statements. When used in this Quarterly Report, the words “may,” “could,” “anticipate,” “plan,” “continue,” “project,” “intend,” “estimate,” “believe,” “expect” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements, although not all forward-looking statements contain such words. Forward-looking statements relate to our future plans, objectives, expectations and intentions and are not historical facts and accordingly involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties and other factors that may cause the actual results or performance to be materially different from future results or performance expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. The following factors, among others, could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in forward-looking statements made in this Quarterly Report, in press releases and in oral statements made by our authorized officers: the effects of general economic conditions on fueling patterns and the commercial activity of fleets; the effects of the Company’s international business expansion and integration efforts and any failure of those efforts; the impact and range of credit losses; breaches of the Company’s technology systems and any resulting negative impact on our reputation liability, or loss of relationships with customers or merchants; the Company’s failure to successfully integrate the businesses it has acquired; fuel price volatility; the Company’s failure to maintain or renew key agreements; failure to expand the Company’s technological capabilities and service offerings as rapidly as the Company’s competitors; the actions of regulatory bodies, including banking and securities regulators, or possible changes in banking regulations impacting the Company’s industrial bank and the Company as the corporate parent; the impact of foreign currency exchange rates on the Company’s operations, revenue and income; changes in interest rates; financial loss if the Company determines it necessary to unwind its derivative instrument position prior to the expiration of a contract; the incurrence of impairment charges if our assessment of the fair value of certain of our reporting units changes; the uncertainties of litigation; as well as other risks and uncertainties identified in Item 1A of our Annual Report for the year ended December 31, 2011, filed on Form 10-K with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 28, 2012. Our forward-looking statements and these factors do not reflect the potential future impact of any alliance, merger, acquisition or disposition. The forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of the initial filing of this Quarterly Report and undue reliance should not be placed on these statements. We disclaim any obligation to update any forward-looking statements as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(in thousands, except per share data)

(unaudited)

1. Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. They do not include all information and notes required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for complete financial statements. However, except as disclosed herein, there have been no material changes in the information disclosed in the notes to consolidated financial statements included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K of Wright Express Corporation for the year ended December 31, 2011. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements that are included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on February 28, 2012. When used in these notes, the term “Company” means Wright Express Corporation and all entities included in the consolidated financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (including normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for any future quarter(s) or the year ending December 31, 2012.

In the first six months of 2012, consolidated stockholders’ equity changed because of (i) changes in other comprehensive income reflected in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income; (ii) changes in common stock and additional paid-in capital reflected in the consolidated statements of cash flows (including stock-based compensation, proceeds from stock option exercises and tax activities around share-based awards); (iii) purchase of treasury stock; and (iv) net income.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued expenses, and other liabilities approximate their respective fair values due to the short-term nature of such instruments. The carrying values of certificates of deposit, interest-bearing money market deposits, borrowed federal funds and credit agreement borrowings, approximate their respective fair values as the interest rates on these financial instruments are variable. All other financial instruments are reflected at fair value on the consolidated balance sheet.

2. New Accounting Standards

On May 12, 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-04, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in GAAP and IFRSs (“ASU 2011-04”). The amendments in ASU 2011-04 change the wording used to describe many of the requirements in GAAP for measuring fair value and for disclosing information about fair value measurements. The amendments are intended to create comparability of fair value measurements presented and disclosed in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards. ASU 2011-04 is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011. The adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

On June 16, 2011, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-05, Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Presentation of Comprehensive Income (“ASU 2011-05”). The amendments in ASU 2011-05 require entities to present the total of comprehensive income, the components of net income, and the components of other comprehensive income either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements. Additionally, the amendments in ASU 2011-05 require an entity to present on the face of the financial statements reclassification adjustments for items that are reclassified from other comprehensive income to net income in the statement(s) where the components of net income and the components of other comprehensive income are presented. ASU 2011-05 is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011. On December 23, 2011, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-12, Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Deferral of the Effective Date for Amendments to the Presentation of Reclassifications of Items Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income in Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-05 to defer the new requirement to present components of reclassifications of other comprehensive income on the face of the financial statements. Companies are still required to adopt the other requirements contained in ASU 2011-05. The Company adopted ASU 2011-05 and has provided the required disclosures in a single statement with the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income.

A contingent consideration agreement was entered into in connection with the purchase of rapid! PayCard. Under the terms of the agreement the former owners of rapid! PayCard received additional consideration based upon the achievement of certain performance criteria, measured over the twelve-month period from the date of purchase. During the first quarter of 2012, the Company revised the estimate of contingent consideration to $8,486. On April 30, 2012, the Company paid the former owners of rapid! Paycard in accordance with the contingent consideration agreement. The resulting impact of this adjustment ($839) during the first quarter of 2012 was an offset to other operating expense in our Other Payment Solutions segment and does not impact the allocation of the purchase price.

7. Deposits and Borrowed Federal Funds

On January 11, 2012, the Company entered into an agreement with Higher One, Inc. (“Higher One”), a technology and payment services company focused on higher education, to offer Negotiable Order of Withdrawal (“NOW”) accounts to a portion of Higher One’s customers. Higher One will provide processing and other administrative services while the Company, through FSC, will establish and maintain the NOW accounts. During the second quarter of 2012, the Company received non-interest bearing NOW account deposits. As of June 30, 2012, the Company has $295,600 of non-interest bearing NOW account deposits outstanding. Higher One will have the right to retain all revenue generated by or from the non-interest bearing NOW accounts, including, but not limited to fees, interchange and other miscellaneous revenues. In addition, when the federal funds rate is greater than 2 percent, the Company will pay Higher One a monthly fee, at a rate of 50 percent of the excess of the federal funds rate above 2 percent. As of June 30, 2012, the Company has not paid nor incurred any fees to Higher One.

8. Derivative Instruments

The Company is exposed to certain risks relating to its ongoing business operations. The fuel based commodity price risk is managed by entering into put and call option contracts. The put and call option contracts are based on the wholesale price of gasoline and retail price of diesel fuel, which settle on a monthly basis, related to the Company’s commodity price risk. These put and call option contracts, or fuel price derivative instruments, are designed to reduce the volatility of the Company’s cash flows associated with its fuel price-related earnings exposure in North America. In the past, the Company has entered into interest rate swap arrangements to manage interest rate risk associated with the Company’s variable-rate borrowings. As of June 30, 2012, the Company is not a party to any interest rate swap arrangements

Accounting guidance requires companies to recognize all derivative instruments as either assets or liabilities at fair value in the statement of financial position. The Company designates its interest rate swap arrangements as cash flow hedges of the forecasted interest payments on a portion of its variable-rate credit agreement. The Company’s fuel price derivative instruments do not qualify for hedge accounting treatment under current guidance, and therefore, no such hedging designation has been made. Because the derivatives are either accounting or economic hedges of operational exposures, cash flows from the settlement of such contracts are included in “Cash flows from operating activities” on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

Cash Flow Hedges

For derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as a cash flow hedge, the effective portion of the gain or loss on the derivative is reported as a component of other comprehensive income and reclassified into earnings in the same period or periods during which the hedged transaction affects earnings. Gains and losses on the derivative representing either hedge ineffectiveness or hedge components excluded from the assessment of effectiveness are recognized in current earnings. As of June 30, 2012, the Company had no outstanding interest rate swap arrangements.

Derivatives Not Designated as Hedging Instruments

For derivative instruments that are not designated as hedging instruments, the gain or loss on the derivative is recognized in current earnings. As of June 30, 2012, the Company had the following put and call option contracts which settle on a monthly basis:

Aggregate
Notional
Amount

13,082

Total fuel price derivative instruments

42,201

(a)

The settlement of the put and call option contracts is based upon the New York Mercantile Exchange’s New York Harbor Reformulated Gasoline Blendstock for Oxygen Blending and the U.S. Department of Energy’s weekly retail on-highway diesel fuel price for the month.

9. Fair Value

The Company holds mortgage-backed securities, fixed income and equity securities, derivatives and certain other financial instruments which are carried at fair value. The Company determines fair value based upon quoted prices when available or through the use of alternative approaches, such as model pricing, when market quotes are not readily accessible or available. In determining the fair value of the Company’s obligations, various factors are considered, including: closing exchange or over-the-counter market price quotations; time value and volatility factors underlying options and derivatives; price activity for equivalent instruments; and the Company’s own credit standing.

These valuation techniques may be based upon observable and unobservable inputs. Observable inputs reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect the Company’s market assumptions. These two types of inputs create the following fair value hierarchy:

Level 1 – Quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets.

Level 2 – Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations whose inputs are observable or whose significant value drivers are observable.

Level 3 – Instruments whose significant value drivers are unobservable.

Available-for-sale securities and executive deferred compensation plan trust

When available, the Company uses quoted market prices to determine the fair value of available-for-sale securities; such items are classified in Level 1 of the fair-value hierarchy. These securities primarily consist of exchange-traded equity securities.

For mortgage-backed and asset-backed debt securities and bonds, the Company generally uses quoted prices for recent trading activity of assets with similar characteristics to the debt security or bond being valued. The securities and bonds priced using such methods are generally classified as Level 2.

Fuel price derivatives and interest rate swap arrangements

The majority of derivatives entered into by the Company are executed over the counter and are valued using internal valuation techniques as no quoted market prices exist for such instruments. The valuation technique and inputs depend on the type of derivative and the nature of the underlying instrument. The principal technique used to value these instruments is a comparison of the spot price of the underlying instrument to its related futures curve adjusted for the Company’s assumptions of volatility and present value, where appropriate. The fair values of derivative contracts reflect the expected cash the Company will pay or receive upon settlement of the respective contracts.

The key inputs depend upon the type of derivative and the nature of the underlying instrument and include interest rate yield curves, the spot price of the underlying instrument, volatility, and correlation. The item is placed in either Level 2 or Level 3 depending on the observability of the significant inputs to the model. Correlation and items with longer tenures are generally less observable.

Fuel price derivatives – diesel. The assumptions used in the valuation of the diesel fuel price derivatives use both observable and unobservable inputs. With respect to forward prices for diesel fuel, there is a lack of price transparency. Such unobservable inputs are significant to the diesel fuel derivative contact valuation methodology.

Quantitative Information About Level 3 Fair Value Measurements. The significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of the Company’s diesel fuel price derivative instruments designated as Level 3 are as follows:

Fair Value at
June 30, 2012
Valuation
Technique
Unobservable Input Range
$ per  gallon

Fuel price derivatives – diesel

$ 3,398 Option model Future retail price of diesel
fuel after June 30, 2012
$ 3.63 – 3.68

Sensitivity To Changes In Significant Unobservable Inputs. As presented in the table above, the significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of the Company’s diesel fuel price derivative instruments are the future retail price of diesel fuel from the third quarter of 2012 through the fourth quarter of 2013. Significant changes in these unobservable inputs in isolation would result in a significant change in the fair value measurement.

Contingent consideration

The Company classified its liability for contingent consideration related to its acquisition of rapid! PayCard within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy because the fair value was determined using significant unobservable inputs, which include the revenues of rapid! PayCard over a twelve month period ending on March 31, 2012. On March 31, 2012, the amount due was determined to be $8,486 and was paid on April 30, 2012.

The Company classified its liability for contingent consideration related to its acquisition of CorporatePay within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy because the fair value was determined using significant unobservable inputs, which include the revenues of CorporatePay over the twelve month period ended December 31, 2012. The Company does not believe any contingent consideration will be paid and has recorded no liability at the time of acquisition.

10. Stock-Based Compensation

During the first quarter of 2012, the Company awarded restricted stock units and performance-based restricted stock units to employees under the 2010 Equity and Incentive Plan (the “2012 grant”). Expense associated with the performance-based restricted stock units may increase or decrease due to changes in the probability of the Company achieving pre-established performance metrics. For the six months ended June 30, 2012, total stock-based compensation cost recognized was approximately $6,151. As of June 30, 2012, total unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested stock options, restricted stock units, and performance-based restricted stock units was approximately $11,300, to be recognized over the remaining vesting periods of these awards.

11. Income Taxes

On June 29, 2012, tax legislation was enacted in Australia that affected the tax deductibility of certain intangible assets. A tax charge of $31,083 was recorded in June of 2012 to reflect these impacts. The Company wrote-off an associated refund claim payable to the former shareholder of RD Card Holding Australia for $9,750, included in non-operating income. This payable was contingent on the receipt of the tax refunds generated by tax deductions associated with the amortization of above mentioned intangible assets.

Tax expense for the quarter ended June 30, 2012, also included $268 for estimated non-tax deductible transaction costs related to the acquisition of CorporatePay.

Management has determined that future earnings generated by the Company’s Australia subsidiaries will be invested indefinitely outside the United States. Accordingly, no incremental domestic tax effects have been contemplated in deferred tax balances. As of June 30, 2012, the amount of unremitted earnings designated as indefinitely invested totaled $1,891.

12. Commitments and Contingencies

Litigation

The Company is involved in pending litigation in the usual course of business. In the opinion of management, such litigation will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

13. Segment Information

Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise about which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. The Company’s chief operating decision maker is its Chief Executive Officer. The operating segments are reviewed separately because each operating segment represents a strategic business unit that generally offers different products and serves different markets.

The Company’s chief operating decision maker evaluates the operating results of the Company’s reportable segments based upon revenues and “adjusted net income,” which is defined by the Company as net income adjusted for fair value changes of derivative instruments, the amortization of purchased intangibles, the net impact of tax rate changes on the estimate of amounts due under the tax receivable agreement (including the former shareholder RD Card Holdings Australia), the net impact of tax rate changes on IPO related goodwill, certain non-cash asset impairment charges and the gains on the extinguishment of a portion of the tax receivable agreement. These adjustments are reflected net of the tax impact.

The Company operates in two reportable segments, Fleet Payment Solutions and Other Payment Solutions. The Fleet Payment Solutions segment provides customers with payment and transaction processing services specifically designed for the needs of vehicle fleet customers. This segment also provides information management services to these fleet customers. The Other Payment Solutions segment provides customers with a payment processing solution for their corporate purchasing, payroll and transaction monitoring needs. Revenue in this segment is derived from our corporate charge cards, single use accounts and prepaid card products.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

We intend for this discussion to provide the reader with information that will assist in understanding our financial statements, the changes in key items in those financial statements from year to year, and the primary factors that accounted for those changes, as well as how certain accounting estimates affect our financial statements. The discussion also provides information about the financial results of the two segments of our business to provide a better understanding of how those segments and their results affect our financial condition and results of operations as a whole. This discussion should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2011, the notes accompanying those financial statements and management’s discussion and analysis as contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on February 28, 2012 and in conjunction with the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and notes in Item 1 of

Part I of this report.

Overview

Wright Express Corporation is a leading provider of value-based, business payment processing and information management solutions. We provide products and services that meet the needs of businesses in various geographic regions including North America, Asia Pacific and Europe. The Company’s fleet and other payment solutions provide its more than 350,000 customers with security and control for complex payments across a wide spectrum of business sectors. Together with our affiliates, we market our products and services directly, as well as through more than 150 strategic relationships which include major oil companies, fuel retailers and vehicle maintenance providers.

Our Company is organized under two segments, Fleet Payment Solutions and Other Payment Solutions. The Fleet Payment Solutions segment provides customers with fleet vehicle payment processing services specifically designed for the needs of commercial and government fleets. Fleet Payment Solutions revenue, which represents a majority of our total revenue, is earned primarily from payment processing, account servicing and transaction processing, with the majority generated by payment processing.

The Other Payment Solutions segment of our business provides customers with payment processing solutions for their corporate purchasing and transaction monitoring needs through our corporate charge card, payroll card, and through our prepaid and gift card products and services. Other Payment Solutions revenue is earned primarily from payment processing.

Summary

Below are selected items from the second quarter of 2012:

We acquired the stock of CorporatePay, a provider of corporate prepaid solutions to the travel industry in the United Kingdom for approximately GBP 17 million (US $27.8 million), net of cash acquired.

As of June 30, 2012, we have approximately $295 million outstanding NOW accounts associated with Higher One, Inc (“Higher One”), a technology and payment services company focused on higher education. Wright Express Financial Services Corporation establishes, provides, and maintains Higher One’s account offering for a portion of Higher One’s customers in addition to providing other banking functions.

Corporate charge card purchase volume grew $922 million to $2.8 billion for the three months ended June 30, 2012, an increase of 49 percent over the same period last year.

Average number of vehicles serviced increased 7 percent from the second quarter of 2011 to approximately 6.7 million, primarily due to the addition of fleets in Australia.

Total fleet transactions processed increased 3 percent from the second quarter of 2011 to 83.3 million. Payment processing transactions increased 1 percent to 63.9 million, while transaction processing transactions increased 8 percent to 19.4 million, over the same period in the prior year. These increases are primarily due to the addition of fleet transactions in Australia.

- 23 -


Table of Contents

Average expenditure per payment processing transaction decreased to $75.47 from $75.77 for the same period last year. This decrease was driven by lower average retail fuel prices, offset by higher gallons per transaction. The average U.S. fuel price per gallon during the three months ended June 30, 2012, was $3.79 for North America, a 2 percent decrease over the same period last year. The average Australian fuel price per gallon during the three months ended June 30, 2012, was $5.60, a 2 percent decrease over the same period last year.

Realized losses on our fuel price derivatives during the second quarter of 2012 were $3.8 million compared to realized losses of $7.6 million for the same period in the prior year.

Credit loss expense in the fleet segment was $4.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2012, versus $6.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011.

We repurchased approximately 200,800 shares of our common stock at a cost of approximately $11.3 million during the second quarter of 2012.

Our effective tax rate was 66.5 percent for the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 36.4 percent for the three months ended June 30, 2011. During the second quarter of 2012, we recorded a charge of approximately $31 million due to impact of tax legislation enacted on June 29, 2012, in Australia. This legislation affected our ability to take future tax deductions related to certain amortizable intangibles. In addition, proposed changes in Australia tax consolidation laws have been announced. If enacted, these proposed changes could impact the levels of intercompany debt allowable in past and future tax years and hence may result in a discrete charge in our recorded tax expense in the current year and a higher statutory tax rate in future periods.

Revenues

The average domestic price per gallon of fuel decreased 2 percent, while domestic payment processing transactions increased 1 percent over the same period in the prior year.

- 25 -


Table of Contents

Payment processing revenue increased $8.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012, compared to the same period last year. The increase is primarily due to the 4 percent increase in the average domestic price per gallon of fuel, which represented approximately $3.5 million of the increase. Domestic payment processing transactions increased 2 percent over the same period in the prior year, resulting in an increase in revenue of $4.2 million. The remaining $0.5 million increase in payment processing revenue is primarily due to a 7 percent increase in transactions for the operations of Wright Express Australia for the six months ended June 30, 2012, compared to the same period in the prior year.

Our account servicing revenue increased $0.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2012, as compared to the same period in 2011, and increased $2.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012, as compared to the same period in 2011. For the three months ended June 30, 2012, the increase is primarily due to an increase in WEXSmart units in service as compared to the same period in the prior year. Approximately $1.0 million of the increase for the six months ended June 30, 2012, is due to an increase in the number of cards at Wright Express Australia. The remaining increase is primarily due to an increase in WEXSmart units in service as compared to the same period in the prior year.

Our finance fees increased $0.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2012, as compared to the same period in 2011, and increased $1.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012, as compared to the same period in 2011. Finance fee revenue is earned when a customer’s receivable balance becomes delinquent. The finance fee is calculated using a stated late fee rate based on the outstanding balance. The absolute amount of such outstanding balances can be attributed to (i) changes in fuel prices; (ii) customer specific transaction volume; and (iii) customer specific delinquencies. Finance fee revenue can also be impacted by changes in (i) late fee rates charged and (ii) increases or decreases in the number of customers with overdue balances. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, the increase in these fees is primarily due to an increase in the late fee rate charged, compared to the same period in the prior year.

$ 2,996 $ 2,663 $ 333 13 %

Changes in operating expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2012, as compared to the corresponding period a year ago, include the following:

Salary and other personnel expenses increased $2.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2012, as compared to the same period last year. Approximately $0.6 million of this increase is due to additional employees as compared to the same period in the prior year. The remaining increase is primarily resulting from non-capitalized contractor expense at Wright Express Australia.

We generally measure our credit loss performance by calculating credit losses as a percentage of total fuel expenditures on payment processing transactions (“Fuel Expenditures”). This metric for credit losses was 8.4 basis points of Fuel Expenditures for the three months ended June 30, 2012, compared to 12.5 basis points of Fuel Expenditures for the same period last year. We use a roll rate methodology to calculate the amount necessary for our ending receivable reserve balance. This methodology takes into account total receivable balances, recent charge off experience, recoveries on previously charged off accounts, and the dollars that are delinquent to calculate the total reserve. In addition, management undertakes a detailed evaluation of the receivable balances to help ensure further overall reserve adequacy. The expense we recognized in the quarter is the amount necessary to bring the reserve to its required level after charge offs. The decrease in expense is primarily due to lower past due balances.

Table of Contents

Depreciation and amortization expenses increased approximately $0.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2012, as compared to the same period in 2011. This increase is primarily due to additional assets being placed in service during the second quarter of 2012.

Occupancy and equipment expenses increased $0.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2012, as compared to the same period in the prior year. The increase is from the additional equipment rent expense associated with customer service initiatives.

Changes in operating expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2012, as compared to the corresponding period a year ago, include the following:

Salary and other personnel expenses increased $4.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012, as compared to the same period last year. Approximately $1.6 million of this increase is due to additional employees as compared to the same period in the prior year. Lower capitalized payroll during the first six months of 2012, as compared to the first six months of the prior year, contributed approximately $0.8 million of the salary expense increase. The remaining increase is primarily resulting from non-capitalized contractor expense at Wright Express Australia during the second quarter of 2012.

Service fees increased $1.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012, as compared to the same period in the prior year. The increase in fees is primarily due to an increase in professional fees during the first quarter of 2012, as compared to the same period in the prior year.

Credit losses were 8.5 basis points of fuel expenditures for the six months ended June 30, 2012, compared to 13.2 basis points of Fuel Expenditures for the same period last year. The decrease in expense is primarily due to lower past due balances.

Fuel price derivatives

We own fuel price derivative instruments that we purchase on a periodic basis to manage the impact of volatility in North American fuel prices on our cash flows. These fuel price derivative instruments do not qualify for hedge accounting. Accordingly, both realized and unrealized gains and losses on our fuel price derivative instruments affect our net income. Activity related to the changes in fair value and settlements of these instruments and the changes in average fuel prices in relation to the underlying strike price of the instruments is shown in the following table:

Changes in fuel price derivatives for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, as compared to the corresponding period a year ago are attributable to the movements in fuel prices at the corresponding times. As of June 30, 2012, the projected future price of fuel is below the average floor price of our derivatives, leading to an asset on our balance sheet. Losses that we actually realize on these derivatives are offset by higher payment processing revenue we receive because such revenues are dependant, in part, on the current price of fuel. Conversely, realized gains are offset by lower payment processing revenue.

We expect that our fuel price derivatives program will continue to be important to our business model going forward, and we expect to purchase derivatives in the future. The Company currently does not plan to hedge our fuel price risk exposure for Wright Express Australia as the exposure to fuel price movements is limited and has not historically fluctuated to the degree it has as in the United States.

Effective tax rates

Our effective tax rate for our Fleet Payment Solutions segment was 67.4 percent for the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 36.4 percent for the three months ended June 30, 2011. Our effective tax rate was 59.1 percent for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 36.4 percent for the six months ended June 30, 2011. During the second quarter of 2012, we recorded a charge of approximately $26.3 million due to the impact of tax legislation enacted on June 29, 2012, in Australia. This legislation affected our ability to take future tax deductions related to certain amortizable intangibles. In addition, proposed changes in Australia tax consolidation laws have been announced. If enacted, these proposed changes could impact the levels of intercompany debt allowable in past and future tax years and hence may result in a discrete charge in our recorded tax expense in the current year and a higher statutory tax rate in future periods.

Revenues

Payment processing revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2012, increased $7.2 million, as compared to the same period in the prior year, and increased $12.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012, as compared to the same period in the prior year. These increases are primarily driven by higher corporate charge card purchase volume from our single use account product in the online travel service and insurance/warranty markets and by increased market penetration with our corporate charge card product. The corporate charge card net interchange rate for the three months ended June 30, 2012, was down 7 basis points to 0.895 percent, which equates to a reduction in revenue of approximately $1.9 million, as compared to the second quarter of last year, primarily due to contract mix, increased foreign spend, which generally has a lower interchange rate than domestic transactions, and a reduction in customer specific incentives received. The corporate charge card net interchange rate for the six months ended June 30, 2012, was down 9 basis points to 0.898 percent, which equates to a reduction in revenue of approximately $4.4 million, as compared to the second quarter of last year, primarily due to contract mix, increased foreign spend and a reduction in customer specific incentives received.

Other revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2012, increased approximately $3.4 million as compared to the same period in the prior year, and increased $6.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012, as compared to the same period in the prior year. These increases are primarily due to increased fees related to cross border charges.

Salary and other personnel expenses increased $2.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012, as compared to the same period last year. This increase is primarily due to the acquisition of rapid! Paycard, which occurred at the end of the first quarter in 2011 and additional sales staff.

Service fees increased $12.2 million during the first six months of 2012 as compared to the same period in the prior year. This increase is primarily due to increased volume and cross border charges on our North America corporate charge card product.

Provision for credit losses increased $1.3 million during the first six months of 2012 as compared to the same period in the prior year primarily due to a $0.9 million bankruptcy of a single customer during the first quarter of 2012.

Effective tax rates

Our effective tax rate for our Other Payment Solutions segment was 62.1 percent for the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 36.4 percent for the three months ended June 30, 2011. Our effective tax rate was 52.9 percent for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 36.4 percent for the six months ended June 30, 2011. During the second quarter of 2012, we recorded a charge of approximately $4.7 million due to impact of tax legislation enacted on June 29, 2012, in Australia. This legislation affected our ability to take future tax deductions related to certain amortizable intangibles. In addition, proposed changes in Australia tax consolidation laws have been announced. If enacted, these proposed changes could impact the levels of intercompany debt allowable in past and future tax years and hence may result in a discrete charge in our recorded tax expense in the current year and a higher statutory tax rate in future periods.

Liquidity, Capital Resources and Cash Flows

We focus on management operating cash as a key element in achieving maximum stockholder value, and it is the primary measure we use internally to monitor cash flow performance from our core operations. Since deposits and borrowed federal funds are used to finance our accounts receivable, we believe that they are a recurring and necessary use and source of cash. As such, we consider deposits and borrowed federal funds when evaluating our operating activities. For the same reason, we believe that management operating cash may also be useful to investors as one means of evaluating our performance. However, management operating cash is a non-GAAP measure and should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, net cash provided by (used for) operating activities as presented on the consolidated statement of cash flows in accordance with GAAP.

While GAAP operating activities cash flows showed a use of $50.6 million in the first six months of 2012, management operating cash moved in the opposite direction providing approximately $210.5 million of inflows. During the first six months of 2011, GAAP operating activities cash flows showed a use of approximately $108.8 million, while management operating cash showed inflows of $79.8 million.

In addition to the $210.5 million of management operating cash we generated during the first six months of 2012, we also increased borrowings under our revolving credit facility by $30.4 million. During the first six months of 2012 we paid $27.8 million in cash for the acquisition of CorporatePay and $11.3 million to repurchase shares.

Our bank subsidiary, Wright Express Financial Services Corporation (“FSC”), utilizes certificates of deposit to finance our domestic accounts receivable. FSC issued certificates of deposit in various maturities ranging between one month and two years and with fixed interest rates ranging from 0.30 percent to 1.15 percent as of June 30, 2012. As of June 30, 2012, we had approximately $530.9 million of certificates of deposit outstanding. FSC also issues interest-bearing money market deposits to finance our accounts receivable. As of June 30, 2012, we had approximately $123.1 million of interest-bearing money market deposits at a weighted average rate of 0.47 percent. During the second quarter of 2012, we received non-interest bearing Negotiable Order of Withdrawal (“NOW”) account deposits associated with Higher One. As of June 30, 2012, we had $295.6 million of non-interest bearing NOW account deposits and $12.0 million on non-interest bearing customer deposits outstanding. Deposits are subject to regulatory capital requirements.

FSC also utilizes federal funds lines of credit to supplement the financing of our accounts receivable. We have approximately $140 million in federal funds lines of credit available, but undrawn, as of June 30, 2012.

Liquidity

We continue to have appropriate access to short-term borrowing instruments to fund our accounts receivable. Our cash balance for the period increased by approximately $182.2 million. Deposits and borrowed federal funds increased approximately $261.1 million and our accounts receivable, net, increased approximately $208.5 million, primarily due to increased fuel prices.

During the second quarter of 2012, due to growth and fluctuations of daily cash requirements, we have elected to maintain a higher level of liquidity by maintaining higher cash balances. We will continue to monitor the level of requirements on an ongoing basis. Furthermore, due to higher spend levels on our corporate card product; we have deposited $50 million in an interest bearing escrow account with a third party in order to secure full performance of our payment obligations to a merchant card provider. This amount is recorded in other assets on our balance sheet.

We have approximately 4 years left on our revolving credit facility and have approximately $133.2 million in borrowings against it. As of June 30, 2012, the unutilized portion of our revolving credit facility was $564.5 million. Outstanding debt under our amortizing term loan arrangement which expires in May of 2016, totaled $187.5 million at June 30, 2012. As of June 30, 2012, amounts outstanding under the amortizing term loan bear interest at a rate of LIBOR plus 150 basis points. Amounts outstanding under the revolving credit facility bear interest at a rate equal to, at our option, (a) LIBOR plus 150 basis points or (b) the prime rate plus 50 basis points. We increased our financing debt by $25.4 million during the first six months of 2012 and ended the period with a balance outstanding of $320.7 million.

Our credit agreement contains various financial covenants requiring us to maintain certain financial ratios. In addition to the financial covenants, the credit agreement contains various customary restrictive covenants including restrictions in certain situations on the payment of dividends. FSC is not subject to certain of these restrictions. We have been, and expect to continue to be, in compliance with all material covenants and restrictions.

Undistributed earnings of certain foreign subsidiaries of the Company amounted to $1.9 million as of June 30, 2012. If we were to distribute such earnings in the form of dividends or otherwise, the Company would be subject to both U.S. income taxes (subject to an adjustment for foreign tax credits) and withholding taxes payable to the various foreign countries.

Management believes that we can adequately fund our cash needs for at least the next 12 months.

Off-balance Sheet Arrangements

Letters of credit. At June 30, 2012, we had posted, as collateral, letters of credit totaling $2.4 million.
