Strategic Update 3 We delivered a strong first quarter of 2021 as we continue to execute on our customer centric strategy. Highlights include: • Net sales of $89 million, up 20% year over year • Net income of $2.4 million, up 37% year over year • Diluted earnings per share of $0.21 per share, up 37% year over year • Adjusted EBITDA of $22 Million, up 78% year over year1 • Debt maturities extended approximately five years • Cash of $25 million and $34 million available under the revolving credit facility at quarter end These results reflect the continued execution on our four key strategies: deep customer focus, market-leading quality products and customer service, continuous innovation and a market-competitive business model. For our Debit and Credit segment, net sales increased 17% year-over-year to $70 million in the first quarter of 2021. The net sales increase was due to: • Higher volumes of contactless card sales • New and existing customer growth, including strong FinTech growth • Government disbursement work The U.S. payment card market continues a gradual transition to Contactless which benefits our broader company as we are observing increased year over year demand within our Secure Card, Personalization and Card@Once® solutions. Additionally, we continue to focus on our commitment to customers’ needs and market opportunities through unique and differentiated products. In the first quarter, we delivered on this commitment by expanding our Earth Elements™ portfolio of contactless capable eco-focused payment cards through the introduction of the Earthwise™ Recycled PVC Card, featuring up to 85% upcycled content. Our Earth Elements portfolio now features three eco-focused payment card offerings, including Second Wave®, featuring a core made with recovered ocean-bound plastic, Earthwise High Content Cards utilizing post- industrial upcycled plastic, and Earthwise Recycled PVC Cards. For our Prepaid Debit segment, net sales were up 34% to $19 million in the first quarter of 2021. The net sales increase was due to higher volumes from an existing customer, including new portfolio wins. Our market leading prepaid business is driven by a combination of our strong relationships, innovation and high quality performance that continues to see demand as we serve the top U.S. Prepaid Debit Card program managers. Through the first quarter of 2021, we continued to grow our margins through top-line sales growth, ongoing process improvements, and disciplined investments in technology and equipment advancement. We improved Net Income by 37% to $2.4 million, grew Adjusted EBITDA by 78% year-over-year to $22 million and significantly improved Adjusted EBITDA margins.1 In the quarter, reported net income included a pre-tax debt extinguishment loss of $5.0 million and $2.6 million “make-whole” premium, which was recorded as interest expense, as a result of the termination of our Senior Credit Facility and First Lien Term Loan on March 15, 2021. The Company closed a private offering by its wholly-owned subsidiary, CPI CG Inc., of $310 million aggregate principal amount of its 8.625% senior secured notes due 2026 and related guarantees. We used the net proceeds from the offering, together with cash on hand and $15 million of initial borrowings under a $50 million secured asset based revolving credit facility that it entered into concurrently with the issuance of the notes, to repay in full and terminate its existing credit facilities and to pay related fees and expenses. We believe we are well positioned to capitalize on market opportunities as we execute on our strategic priorities and continue to collaborate with our customers to deliver unique, high-quality and innovative products and solutions to elevate their customers’ experience and enhance their brands.

Cautionary Statement on Forward-Looking Statements 11 Non-GAAP Financial Measures In addition to financial results reported in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), we have provided the following non-GAAP financial measures in this presentation, all reported on a continuing operations basis: Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Diluted Earnings Per Share, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, and Free Cash Flow. These non-GAAP financial measures are utilized by management in comparing our operating performance on a consistent basis between fiscal periods. We believe that these financial measures are appropriate to enhance an overall understanding of our underlying operating performance trends compared to historical and prospective periods and our peers. Management also believes that these measures are useful to investors in their analysis of our results of operations and provide improved comparability between fiscal periods. Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial information calculated in accordance with GAAP. Our non-GAAP measures may be different from similarly titled measures of other companies. Additional information relating to certain financial measures, including our non-GAAP financial measures, is available in our most recent earnings release and on our website at http://investor.cpicardgroup.com. Q1 2021 |

Reconciliations of Non-GAAP Financial Measures 12 Adjusted Net Income Adjusted Net Income is computed as GAAP net income adjusted for the loss on debt extinguishment and make-whole premium interest expense, net of their income tax impact. These items are associated with the debt extinguishment and refinancing completed during the first quarter of 2021 and the first quarter of 2020. An effective tax rate of 27% and 21% was used to calculate the adjustments net of income taxes for the first quarter of 2021 and the first quarter of 2020, respectively. We believe this is useful in assessing our financial performance by excluding debt extinguishment costs and related payments which are not indicative of our core operating performance and may obscure trends useful in evaluating our results of operations. Adjusted Diluted Earnings Per Share Adjusted diluted earnings per share is computed as GAAP Diluted earnings per share adjusted for the per share impacts from the loss on debt extinguishment and make-whole interest premium expense, net of their per share income tax impact. These items are associated with the debt extinguishment and refinancing completed during the first quarter of 2021 and the first quarter of 2020. An effective tax rate of 27% and 21% was used to calculate the per share adjustments net of income taxes for the first quarter of 2021 and the first quarter of 2020, respectively. We believe this is useful in assessing our financial performance by excluding debt extinguishment costs and related payments which are not indicative of our core operating performance and may obscure trends useful in evaluating our results of operations.

Reconciliations of Non-GAAP Financial Measures 13 Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin EBITDA represents earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, all on a continuing operations basis. Adjusted EBITDA is presented on a continuing operations basis and is defined as EBITDA adjusted for litigation and related charges incurred in connection with certain patent and shareholder litigation; stock-based compensation expense; estimated sales tax expense, restructuring and other charges; loss on debt extinguishment; foreign currency gain or loss; litigation settlement gain; and other items that are unusual in nature, infrequently occurring or not considered part of our core operations. Adjusted EBITDA is intended to show our unleveraged, pre-tax operating results and therefore reflects our financial performance based on operational factors, excluding non-operational, unusual or non-recurring losses or gains. Adjusted EBITDA has important limitations as an analytical tool, and you should not consider it in isolation, or as a substitute for, analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. For example, Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect: (a) our capital expenditures, future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments; (b) changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs; (c) the significant interest expenses or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments on our debt; (d) tax payments that represent a reduction in cash available to us; (e) any cash requirements for the assets being depreciated and amortized that may have to be replaced in the future; (f) the impact of earnings or charges resulting from matters that we and the lenders under our credit agreement may not consider indicative of our ongoing operations; or (g) the impact of any discontinued operations. In particular, our definition of Adjusted EBITDA allows us to add back certain non-operating, unusual or non-recurring charges that are deducted in calculating net (loss) income, even though these are expenses that may recur, vary greatly and are difficult to predict and can represent the effect of long-term strategies as opposed to short-term results. In addition, certain of these expenses represent the reduction of cash that could be used for other purposes. Q1 2021 | (1) Represents estimated sales tax (benefit) expense relating to a contingent liability due to historical activity in certain states where it is probable that the Company will be subject to sales tax plus interest and penalties. During the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company revised its prior period financial statements to adjust immaterial items, primarily due to estimated sales tax expense relating to 2017 through the second quarter of 2020. Refer to Note 1 of the Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2021 for an explanation of the immaterial prior period adjustments. (2) Represents restructuring severance charges. (3) The Company terminated and repaid its Senior Credit Facility and First Lien Term Loan during the first quarter of 2021 and expensed the unamortized deferred financing costs and debt discount. Additionally, the Company terminated its previous Revolving Credit Facility during the first quarter of 2020 and expensed the remaining unamortized deferred financing costs.

14 Reconciliations of Non-GAAP Financial Measures LTM Adjusted EBITDA We define LTM Adjusted EBITDA as Adjusted EBITDA (defined previously) for the last twelve months. Q1 2021 | Free Cash Flow We define Free Cash Flow as cash flow from continuing operations less capital expenditures. We use this metric in analyzing our ability to service and repay our debt. However, this measure does not represent funds available for investment or other discretionary uses since it does not deduct cash used to service our debt, nor does it reflect the cash impacts of our discontinued operations. (1) Represents net legal costs incurred with certain patent and shareholder litigation. (2) Represents estimated sales tax (benefit) expense relating to a contingent liability due to historical activity in certain states where it is probable that the Company will be subject to sales tax plus interest and penalties.

(4) The Company terminated and repaid its Senior Credit Facility and First Lien Term Loan during the first quarter of 2021 and expensed the unamortized deferred financing costs and debt discount. Additionally, the Company terminated its previous Revolving Credit Facility during the first quarter of 2020 and expensed the remaining unamortized deferred financing costs. (5) During the second quarter of 2019, the Company recognized in operating income a $6.0 million gain related to the cash settlement of litigation. (6) Foreign currency loss includes the release of the cumulative translation adjustment from the balance sheet to the statement of operations, done in connection with the disposition of the Company’s Canadian subsidiary during the second quarter 2019.

Adjusted Weighted Average Effective Interest Rate is computed as interest expense for the quarter divided by average debt outstanding during the quarter, multiplied by four. For Q1 2021, the average debt outstanding includes the $312.5 million First Lien Term Loan, and $30 million Senior Credit Facility through the dates of principal repayments. On March 15, 2021, the Company completed an offering of $310 million Senior Notes and entered into an ABL Revolver with $15 million borrowed at inception. These balances are weighted for the period of time the debt instruments were outstanding during the first quarter ended March 31, 2021. In addition, the “make-whole” interest expense of $2.635 million was excluded from interest expense in the computation of Adjusted Weighted Average Effective Interest Rate, given it represented a one-time premium payment in connection with the termination of the $30 million Senior Credit Facility.
