		<description><![CDATA[The world’s leading money transfer company, Western Union Co. (WU), reported first quarter operating earnings of 40 cents per share, in line with the Zacks Consensus Estimate. Earnings increased 14% on a year–over-year basis, mainly on the back of strong margin improvement in the Global Business Payments unit and lower share count. Western Union’s revenues for the quarter were $1.4 billion, up 9% year over year but down 2.8% from the Zacks Consensus Estimate. The year-over-year upside in revenue was attributable to a 26% hike in foreign exchange revenues, 4% increase in transaction fee and a 3% rise in other revenues. Total expenses for the quarter increased 9% year over year to $1.1 billion, due to a 24% surge in selling, general and administrative expense and a 5% jump in ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Yesterday, MoneyGram International Inc. (MGI) announced the filing of a statement for a reverse stock split. According to the reverse stock split, MoneyGram will be able to contract its shares outstanding by issuing one share for every 8 shares outstanding. This implies that one share of MoneyGram would be then valued at a price equivalent to the current total price of 8 shares. The total market capitalization remains the same by this method. However, the number of shares, issued and outstanding, will be trimmed to about 49.8 million shares from about 398.7 million shares, as a result of the reverse stock split. While the reverse stock split became effective yesterday, the same will begin trading today for the next 20 trading days under the ticker symbol ‘MGID’. Moreover, no fractional ]]></description>

The company’s fourth quarter loss was lesser than the Zacks Consensus Estimate, driven by decreased operating expenses and moderate revenue growth. Higher money transfer transaction volumeswere offset bylowerrevenue per transaction while investment revenues maintained its declining trend. MoneyGram continues to grow its presence in high-growth potential markets while also improving its position in the weaker markets of Spain and Mexico. The company has also teamed up with Yahoo! (YHOO) and is now utilizing the Internet, mobile phones and ATMs for money transfer. Further, the European Union payment services directives will allow MoneyGram to operate in all 27 EU countries under a single license.

		<description><![CDATA[On Feb 26, MoneyGram International Inc. (MGI) announced the purchase of Blue Dolphin Financial Services in order to expand its payment services in high-growth potential European markets. The acquisition unlocks growth avenues for MoneyGram by allowing penetration in the Belgium, Netherlands and Luxembourg (Benelux) markets, where Blue Dolphin already operates through 18 centers.

		<description><![CDATA[On Monday, MoneyGram International Inc. (MGI) announced its decision to make an optional repayment of $40 million to its debtors on Dec 22, 2009. The prepayment of $40 million is against its tranche B term loan taken under the senior secured credit facility. This will bring down the total outstanding debt of the company to $187 million, shrinking it by 19% since Jan 2009. MoneyGram’s debt-cutting initiatives have become a major priority for the company as mounting losses in the securities portfolio are already hampering the organic growth and earnings. These losses have largely resulted from the deterioration in the value of the company&#8217;s holdings of asset-backed securities, which were negatively impacted by changes in the credit ratings or their underlying collateral. However, the company is realigning its portfolio and ]]></description>
