Press Release
INTERACTIVE DATA REPORTS FIRST-QUARTER 2012 RESULTS
BEDFORD, Mass – April 26, 2012 – Interactive Data Corporation today reported its financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2012. Interactive Data’s first-quarter 2012 revenue increased 2.4% to $216.5 million from $211.5 million in the first quarter of 2011. First-quarter 2011 revenue was reduced by $0.6 million due to the purchase accounting for the amortization of acquisition-related deferred revenue. Excluding the impact of changes in foreign exchange rates and the reduction in first-quarter 2011 revenue associated with the acquisition-related deferred revenue adjustment, Interactive Data’s organic (non-GAAP) revenue grew 2.5% from the first quarter in 2011.
Interactive Data’s first-quarter 2012 income from operations was $29.0 million, compared with income from operations of $17.5 million in the same period one year ago. Non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA, which excludes items that are either not part of the Company’s ongoing core operations, do not require a cash outlay, or are not otherwise expected to recur in the ordinary course, for the first quarter of 2012 was $76.4 million, compared with $76.8 million in the same period one year ago.
“During the first quarter of 2012, Interactive Data generated modest revenue growth, maintained solid profitability and produced strong cash flow despite challenging market conditions,” stated Mason Slaine, Interactive Data’s chairman, president and chief executive officer. “We made good progress with key product and technology development initiatives, which are resonating among customers and prospects. Moving forward, we remain focused on reengineering our technical infrastructure, expanding our market coverage and driving product innovation, all of which we believe is fundamental to delivering compelling value to customers worldwide and fueling our long-term growth.”
Segment Reporting and Related Operating Highlights
As previously disclosed, effective for the fourth quarter of 2011, Interactive Data’s two reportable segments were reorganized as Pricing and Reference Data, and Trading Solutions. The change was made in response to operational and organizational initiatives undertaken during the preceding year and completed in the fourth quarter, and reflects the way the Company currently approaches the market and analyzes operating performance. The Pricing and Reference Data segment represents the Company’s evaluated pricing, reference data and fixed income analytics product areas. The Trading Solutions segment represents the Company’s real-time data feeds, ultra low latency infrastructure services, hosted web applications and workstations. Historical financial results have been reclassified to reflect this change.
Pricing and Reference Data Segment:
| • | Interactive Data’s Pricing and Reference Data segment reported first-quarter 2012 revenue of $149.7 million, a 3.8% increase over the first quarter of 2011. Excluding the effects of foreign exchange and the reduction of $0.5 million in first-quarter 2011 revenue associated with the acquisition-related deferred revenue adjustment, first-quarter 2012 organic (non-GAAP) revenue for this business increased by 3.8% from the same period last year. The first-quarter 2012 organic revenue performance primarily reflects expansion in its evaluated pricing and reference data services product areas in the U.S. and Asia Pacific regions. Earlier this month, the Company expanded coverage and delivered new enhancements to its global Corporate Actions Service, and launched an upgraded version of Vantage, its innovative Web application that provides transparency into the fixed income market and its evaluated prices. |
Trading Solutions Segment:
| • | Interactive Data’s Trading Solutions segment generated first-quarter 2012 revenue of $66.9 million, compared with $67.3 million in the same quarter last year. Excluding the effects of foreign exchange and the reduction of $0.2 million in first-quarter 2011 revenue associated with the acquisition-related deferred revenue adjustment, first-quarter 2012 organic (non-GAAP) revenue for this business was essentially unchanged. Continued growth of Interactive Data 7ticks trading infrastructure services area and modest expansion within the hosted web applications area were offset by lower real-time feeds and active trader-related workstation revenue. In addition, first-quarter 2011 Trading Solutions revenue benefited from higher one-time revenue in the trading infrastructure services area related to new client installations. During the first quarter of 2012, the Company significantly expanded the global connectivity for its Interactive Data 7ticks® network, extending the coverage to over 50 markets worldwide. In addition, the Company enhanced its PrimeTerminal and eSignal offerings for the wealth and active trader markets, respectively, with new content, features and capabilities. |
Other First-Quarter 2012 Financial Highlights
Effects of Foreign Exchange:
| • | The net effect of foreign exchange on first-quarter 2012 operating results was immaterial. |
Balance Sheet Highlights:
| • | As of March 31, 2012, Interactive Data had cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments of $218.7 million, compared with $136.4 million at the same time last year and $262.2 million at the end of 2011. The Company’s total debt outstanding as of March 31, 2012, was approximately $2.0 billion. During the first quarter of 2012, the Company made principal repayments of $32.3 million on its term-loan facility. |
Conference Call Information
Interactive Data Corporation will host a conference call to discuss the Company’s first-quarter 2012 results on Friday, April 27, 2012 at 8:30 a.m. ET. The dial-in number for the conference call is (785) 424-1057 and the related access code is IDCQ112. For those who cannot listen to this broadcast, a replay of the call will be available from April 27, 2012 at 12:00 p.m. until Friday, May 4, 2012 at 12:00 p.m., and it can be accessed by dialing (402) 220-7214 or (800) 756-8809 (no access code is required).
Non-GAAP Information
In addition to presenting our results in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), we also disclose the following non-GAAP information:
| • | Management includes information regarding organic revenue. Organic revenue excludes the effects of foreign currency exchange rates, adjustments related to the amortization of acquisition-related deferred revenue, and, if applicable, the contribution of businesses recently acquired (and related intercompany eliminations as appropriate). Management believes reporting organic revenue facilitates period-to-period comparisons, and provides a better understanding of underlying business trends and our future revenue growth prospects. |
| • | Management includes organic revenue for our Pricing and Reference Data, and Trading Solutions segments because management believes this additional level of detail provides further insight into underlying performance trends. |
2
| • | Management includes information regarding earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA). We also include information regarding adjusted EBITDA, which we define as earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation expense, restructuring charges and benefits, adjustments related to the amortization of acquisition-related deferred revenue, and other non-cash, non-operational or non-recurring items. In addition, management also includes information regarding pro forma adjusted EBITDA. We define this metric as earnings, excluding all of the above factors as well as other adjustments permitted under the Company’s senior secured credit facilities. Management considers these measures to be important indicators of the Company’s operational profitability and cash generation strength and a good measure of the Company’s historical operating trend because it eliminates items that are either not part of the Company’s ongoing core operations, do not require a cash outlay, or are not otherwise expected to recur in the ordinary course of business. In addition, the Company’s pro forma adjusted EBITDA measure is based on the definition of EBITDA set forth in the agreements governing the Company’s senior secured credit facilities. |
| • | Management includes information regarding free cash flow, which we define as adjusted EBITDA less capital expenditures. Management considers free cash flow as another important measure of the Company’s cash generation strength that supports the Company’s ability to repay its debt obligations and invest in future growth through new business development activities or acquisitions. |
| • | Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures, in addition to GAAP financial measures, as the basis for measuring the Company’s core operating performance and comparing such performance to that of prior periods and to the performance of our competitors. Such measures are also used by management in their financial and operating decision-making, and for forecasting and planning purposes. In addition, management also considers pro forma adjusted EBITDA to be an important indicator which can be used for the purpose of analyzing covenant compliance under the Company’s senior secured credit facilities. |
| • | The non-GAAP financial measures of the Company’s results of operations included in this press release should not be considered in isolation from comparable measures determined in accordance with GAAP. The non-GAAP financial measures are not meant to be considered superior to or a substitute for the Company’s results of operations prepared in accordance with GAAP. Reconciliations of such non-GAAP financial measures to the comparable GAAP financial measures are set forth in the accompanying tables. The non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. |

| 1 | Interactive Data’s adjusted EBITDA excludes items that are either not part of the Company’s ongoing core operations, do not require a cash outlay or are not otherwise expected to recur in the ordinary course. In addition to excluding the aforementioned items, Interactive Data’s pro forma adjusted EBITDA also reflects other adjustments permitted under the Company’s senior secured credit facilities. The Company’s pro forma adjusted EBITDA measure is based on the definition of EBITDA set forth in the agreements governing the Company’s senior secured credit facilities. Please note that the sum of certain amounts may not equal the total due to rounding. |
| 2 | Other non-recurring charges include the impact of the deferred revenue adjustment, the loss on extinguishment of debt, facility consolidation costs, and certain severance and retention expenses. |
| 3 | Other charges include management fees, earnout-related expense, non-cash foreign exchange expense, acquisition-related adjustments, professional fees related to the registration of the Company’s debt securities, and other costs. |
| 4 | Adjusted EBITDA margin and pro forma adjusted EBITDA margin are calculated by dividing each EBITDA measure by non-GAAP revenue (total revenue less deferred revenue adjustment). |
| 5 | Pro forma cost savings of up to a maximum of $30 million annually is an adjustment permitted under the Company’s credit agreements for activities that may include, but are not limited to, the consolidation of a number of legacy organizational silos, technology platforms and content databases. |

| 1 | Interactive Data’s adjusted EBITDA excludes items that are either not part of the Company’s ongoing core operations, do not require a cash outlay or are not otherwise expected to recur in the ordinary course. In addition to excluding the aforementioned items, Interactive Data’s pro forma adjusted EBITDA also reflects other adjustments permitted under the Company’s senior secured credit facilities. The Company’s pro forma adjusted EBITDA measure is based on the definition of EBITDA set forth in the agreements governing the Company’s senior secured credit facilities. Please note that the sum of certain amounts may not equal the total due to rounding. |
| 2 | Other non-recurring charges include the impact of the deferred revenue adjustment, the loss on extinguishment of debt, facility consolidation costs, and certain severance and retention expenses. |
| 3 | Other charges include management fees, earnout-related expense, non-cash foreign exchange expense, acquisition-related adjustments, professional fees related to the registration of the Company’s debt securities, and other costs. |
| 4 | Adjusted EBITDA margin and pro forma adjusted EBITDA margin are calculated by dividing each EBITDA measure by non-GAAP revenue (total revenue less deferred revenue adjustment). |
| 5 | Pro forma cost savings of up to a maximum of $30 million annually is an adjustment permitted under the Company’s credit agreements for activities that may include, but are not limited to, the consolidation of a number of legacy organizational silos, technology platforms and content databases. |
