Quarterly revenue of $340 million, up 25%
Adjusted EBITDA of $100.3 million, or 29.5% of revenue for the quarter
EPS of $0.60 and adjusted EPS of $0.88 for the quarter

ENGLEWOOD, Colo. (September 21, 2011) - IHS Inc. (NYSE: IHS), the leading global source of critical information and insight, today reported results for the third quarter ended August 31, 2011. Revenue for the third quarter of 2011 totaled $340 million, a 25 percent increase over third quarter 2010 revenue of $272 million. Net income for the third quarter of 2011 was $39.6 million, or $0.60 per diluted share, compared to third quarter 2010 net income of $34.6 million, or $0.53 per diluted share.
  
Adjusted EBITDA (Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization) totaled $100.3 million for the third quarter of 2011, up 22 percent from $82.2 million in the third quarter of 2010. Adjusted earnings per diluted share were $0.88 for the third quarter of 2011, an increase of 16 percent over the prior-year period. Adjusted EBITDA and adjusted earnings per share are non-GAAP (Generally Accepted Accounting Principles) financial measures used by management to measure operating performance. Please see the end of this release for more information about these non-GAAP measures.

“We delivered another quarter of strong profitable growth in this time of ever greater economic uncertainty,” said Jerre Stead, IHS chairman and chief executive officer. “With the closing of our largest acquisition in our company's history, SMT, and the successful first release of our Vanguard initiative, we continue to make important investments in scalable platforms which will help us deliver strong profitable growth for years to come.”

"We delivered more than $100 million of quarterly adjusted EBITDA for the first time in our company's history,” said Rich Walker, IHS executive vice president and chief financial officer.  “Our free cash flow generation remains strong, and we continue to consider opportunities to secure access to capital so we can continue to grow."

Outlook (forward-looking statement)
For the year ending November 30, 2011, IHS expects:

All-in revenue in a range of $1.307 to $1.337 billion; and
All-in Adjusted EBITDA in a range of $399 to $407 million.

Additionally, for the year ending November 30, 2011, IHS also expects:
Depreciation and amortization expense to be approximately $89 million;
Net interest expense of approximately $11 million;
Adjusted EPS between $3.33 and $3.43;
Stock-based compensation expense to be approximately $86 million;
Net pension expense to be approximately $11 million;
An adjusted tax rate of approximately 25-26%; and
Fully diluted shares to be approximately 66 million.

The above outlook assumes constant currencies and no further acquisitions or unanticipated events.

See discussion of Adjusted EBITDA and non-GAAP financial measures at the end of this release.

As previously announced, IHS will hold a conference call to discuss third quarter 2011 results on September 21, 2011, at 8:00 a.m. EDT. The conference call will be simultaneously webcast on the company's website: www.ihs.com.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Non-GAAP results are presented only as a supplement to the financial statements based on U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). The non-GAAP financial information is provided to enhance the reader's understanding of our financial performance, but no non-GAAP measure should be considered in isolation or as a substitute for financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. Reconciliations of the most directly comparable GAAP measures to non-GAAP measures, such as Adjusted EBITDA and adjusted earnings per diluted share, are provided within the schedules attached to this release.

EBITDA is defined as net income plus or minus net interest plus income taxes, depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA further excludes (i) non-cash items (e.g., stock-based compensation expense and non-cash pension and post-retirement expense) and (ii) items that management does not consider to be useful in assessing our operating performance (e.g., acquisition-related costs, restructuring charges, income or loss from discontinued operations, and gain or loss on sale of assets). Adjusted earnings per diluted share exclude similar items as adjusted EBITDA. None of these non-GAAP financial measures are recognized terms under GAAP and do not purport to be an alternative to net income as an indicator of operating performance or any other GAAP measure.

Management uses these non-GAAP measures in its operational and financial decision-making, believing that it is useful to eliminate certain items in order to focus on what it deems to be a more reliable indicator of ongoing operating performance and our ability to generate cash flow from operations. As a result, internal management reports used during monthly operating reviews feature the adjusted EBITDA and adjusted earnings per diluted share metrics. Management also believes that investors may find non-GAAP financial measures useful for the same reasons, although investors are cautioned that non-GAAP financial measures are not a substitute for GAAP disclosures. EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, and adjusted earnings per diluted share are also used by many of our investors, research analysts, investment bankers, and lenders to assess

3



our operating performance. For example, a measure similar to adjusted EBITDA is required by the lenders under our term loan and revolving credit agreement.

Because not all companies use identical calculations, our presentation of non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to other similarly-titled measures of other companies. However, these measures can still be useful in evaluating our performance against our peer companies because management believes the measures provide users with valuable insight into key components of GAAP financial disclosures. For example, a company with greater GAAP net income may not be as appealing to investors if its net income is more heavily comprised of gains on asset sales. Likewise, eliminating the effects of interest income and expense moderates the impact of a company's capital structure on its performance.

All of the items included in the reconciliation from net income to adjusted EBITDA are either (i) non-cash items (e.g., depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation, non-cash pension and post-retirement expense) or (ii) items that we do not consider to be useful in assessing our operating performance (e.g., income taxes, acquisition-related costs, restructuring charges, income or loss from discontinued operations, and gain or loss on sale of assets). In the case of the non-cash items, management believes that investors can better assess our operating performance if the measures are presented without such items because, unlike cash expenses, these adjustments do not affect our ability to generate free cash flow or invest in our business. For example, by eliminating depreciation and amortization from EBITDA, users can compare operating performance without regard to different accounting determinations such as useful life. In the case of the other items, management believes that investors can better assess operating performance if the measures are presented without these items because their financial impact does not reflect ongoing operating performance.
