SS&C Technologies Reports Results for Q1 2012

GAAP Diluted EPS of $0.22, up 83%, Adjusted Diluted EPS of $0.28, up 16.7%

WINDSOR, CT – May 7, 2012 — SS&C Technologies Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ: SSNC), a global provider of investment and financial software-enabled services and software, today announced its financial results for the quarter that ended March 31, 2012.

“Our software-enabled services business continues to grow, up 12 percent. Fund administration is where we see a lot of potential and we believe we are in an excellent position,” said Bill Stone, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, SS&C Technologies Holdings, Inc. “We continue to see big opportunities in the fund services marketplace and we have won a number of large mandates in the second quarter. Form PF is an impetus and we believe we have the best solution and it is resonating with our prospects and customers. Although SS&C had a weak license quarter, we were able to recognize this and manage our expenses to continue to drive our earnings.”

Results

The Company reported quarterly revenue of $93.7 million for the first quarter of 2012, compared to $89.0 million in the first quarter of 2011, a 5.2 percent increase.

GAAP operating income for the first quarter of 2012 was $22.1 million, or 23.6 percent of revenue, down from $23.1 million in 2011’s first quarter, or 26.0 percent of revenue. Operating income was down 4.5 percent from 2011’s first quarter.

GAAP net income for the first quarter of 2012 was $17.9 million compared to $9.8 million in the first quarter of 2011, an 81.8 percent increase.

On a fully diluted basis, earnings per share in the first quarter of 2012 were $0.22 compared to $0.12 in the first quarter of 2011, an 83.3 percent increase.

The Company recorded transaction costs of $4.2 million in the first quarter related to the proposed offer to acquire GlobeOp Financial Services S.A. (GlobeOp) and the pending acquisition of the Thomson Reuters’ PORTIA^® business. In addition, in other income (expense) the Company recorded a gain of $4.4 million related to a currency hedge put in place for the proposed acquisition of GlobeOp.

Adjusted operating income (a non-GAAP measure defined in note 2 to the attached Condensed Consolidated Financial Information) in the first quarter of 2012 was $36.0 million, or 38.5 percent of revenue. This represents a 5.6 percent increase compared to $34.1 million and 38.3 percent of revenue in the first quarter of 2011.

Adjusted net income (a non-GAAP measure defined in note 4 to the attached Condensed Consolidated Financial Information) for the first quarter of 2012 was $23.1 million compared to $19.2 million in 2011’s first quarter, a 20.4 percent increase.

Adjusted diluted earnings per share (a non-GAAP measure defined in note 4 to the attached Condensed Consolidated Financial Information) in the first quarter of 2012 were $0.28 compared to $0.24 in the first quarter of 2011, a 16.7 percent increase.

Annual Run Rate Basis

Annual Run Rate Basis (ARRB) recurring revenue, defined as the addition of maintenance and software-enabled services revenue, was $84.1 million for the first quarter of 2012, an annual run-rate of $336.3 million. This represents an increase of 8.9 percent from $77.2 million and $308.7 million run-rate in the same period in 2011 and an increase of 0.9 percent from Q4 2011’s $83.3 million and $333.2 million run-rate. We believe ARRB of our recurring revenue is a good indicator of visibility into future revenue.

SS&C generated net cash from operating activities of $13.1 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2012, compared to $12.1 million for the same period in 2011, representing an 8.6 percent increase.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Information

Note 1. Reconciliation of Revenue to Adjusted Revenue

Adjusted revenue represents revenue adjusted for one-time purchase accounting adjustments to fair value deferred revenue acquired in business combinations. Adjusted revenue is presented because we use this measure to evaluate the performance of our business against prior periods and believe it is a useful indicator of the underlying performance of the Company. Adjusted revenue is not a recognized term under generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). Adjusted revenue does not represent revenue, as that term is defined under GAAP, and should not be considered as an alternative to revenue as an indicator of our operating performance. Adjusted revenue as presented herein is not necessarily comparable to similarly titled measures. The following is a reconciliation between adjusted revenue and revenue, the GAAP measure we believe to be most directly comparable to adjusted revenue.

Note 2. Reconciliation of Operating Income to Adjusted Operating Income

Adjusted operating income represents operating income adjusted for amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets and purchase accounting adjustments for deferred revenue and other expenses. Adjusted operating income is presented because we use this measure to evaluate the performance of our business and believe it is a useful indicator of the underlying performance of the Company. Adjusted operating income is not a recognized term under GAAP. Adjusted operating income does not represent operating income, as that term is defined under GAAP, and should not be considered as an alternative to operating income as an indicator of our operating performance. Adjusted operating income as presented herein is not necessarily comparable to similarly titled measures. The following is a reconciliation between adjusted operating income and operating income, the GAAP measure we believe to be most directly comparable to adjusted operating income.

Note 3. Reconciliation of Net Income to EBITDA, Consolidated EBITDA and Adjusted Consolidated EBITDA

EBITDA represents net income before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization. Consolidated EBITDA, defined under our Credit Agreement entered into in December 2011, is used in calculating covenant compliance, and is EBITDA adjusted for certain items. Consolidated EBITDA is calculated by subtracting from or adding to EBITDA items of income or expense described below. Adjusted consolidated EBITDA is calculated by subtracting acquired EBITDA from consolidated EBITDA. EBITDA, consolidated EBITDA and adjusted consolidated EBITDA are presented because we use these measures to evaluate performance of our business and believe them to be useful indicators of an entity’s debt capacity and its ability to service debt. EBITDA, consolidated EBITDA and adjusted consolidated EBITDA are not recognized terms under GAAP and should not be considered in isolation or as alternatives to operating income, net income or cash flows from operating activities. EBITDA, consolidated EBITDA and adjusted consolidated EBITDA do not represent net income, as that term is defined under GAAP, and should not be considered as alternatives to net income as an indicator of our operating performance. The following is a reconciliation between EBITDA, consolidated EBITDA and adjusted consolidated EBITDA and net income.

Note 4. Reconciliation of Net Income to Adjusted Net Income and Diluted Earnings Per Share to Adjusted Diluted Earnings Per Share

Adjusted net income and adjusted diluted earnings per share represent net income and earnings per share before amortization of intangible assets and deferred financing costs, stock-based compensation, capital-based taxes and other unusual and non-recurring items. Adjusted net income and adjusted diluted earnings per share are not recognized terms under GAAP, do not represent net income or diluted earnings per share, as those terms are defined under GAAP, and should not be considered as alternatives to net income or diluted earnings per share as indicators of our operating performance. Adjusted net income and adjusted diluted earnings per share are presented because we use these measures to evaluate our operational performance exclusive of the effects of amortization of intangible assets and deferred financing costs, stock-based compensation, capital-based taxes and other unusual and non-recurring items that are not operational in nature or comparable to those of our competitors. The following is a reconciliation between adjusted net income and adjusted diluted earnings per share and net income and diluted earnings per share.
