SunGard Announces Third Quarter 2013 Results

Wayne, PA – October 29, 2013 – SunGard, one of the world’s leading software and technology services companies, today reported results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2013. For the third quarter, revenue was $1.0 billion, down 1% year over year. Currency had no material impact on reported revenue for the quarter compared to the prior year. Operating income was $122 million and the operating margin was 11.9% in the quarter, compared to an operating loss of $279 million in the third quarter of 2012. Third quarter 2012 included a $385 million non-cash goodwill impairment charge. Excluding this charge, operating income increased 16% year over year. This was driven by a 3% decline in total costs and expenses. Adjusted EBITDA was $306 million, up 3% year over year, and the adjusted EBITDA margin was 29.7%, up 1.1 points year over year. Adjusted EBITDA is defined in Note 1 attached to this release.

Year to date, revenue was $3.1 billion, down 3% year over year (down 2% adjusting for currency). Operating income was $289 million and the operating margin was 9.5%, compared to an operating loss of $122 million last year. Excluding the goodwill impairment charge mentioned above, operating income increased 10% year over year. This was driven by a 4% decline in total costs and expenses. Adjusted EBITDA was $839 million, flat year over year, and the adjusted EBITDA margin was 27.5%, up 0.8 points year over year.

Russ Fradin, president and chief executive officer, commented, “We remain focused on improving our growth profile. Many of our solutions are seeing strong demand around the world, including our treasury, risk and compliance, and public sector solutions. We’ve instilled disciplined management processes and are realigning our investments for growth, resulting in improved margins, stronger cash flows and reduced debt levels. We are confident that our strategies are taking hold and we are encouraged by SunGard’s opportunities.”

Financial Systems (“FS”) revenue was $635 million in the third quarter, down 1% year over year (also down 1% adjusting for currency). During the quarter, FS recognized $11.5 million of revenue related to the sale of a customer bankruptcy claim. Excluding this sale, FS revenue declined 2% year to year, principally driven by a decline in professional services. Partially offsetting this was growth in software license fees of 23%, or $10 million, to $53 million. Adjusted EBITDA for the period was $194 million, up 14% from the prior year, and the adjusted EBITDA margin was 30.5%, up 3.9 points from last year. Year to date, FS revenue was $1.9 billion, down 3% year over year (also down 3% adjusting for currency). For the same period, license fees were $132 million, a decrease of $4 million year over year.

SunGard’s “Safe Harbor” Statement under Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995

Statements in this release other than historical facts constitute forward-looking statements. You can identify forward-looking statements because they contain words such as “believes,” “expects,” “may,” “will,” “would,” “should,” “seeks,” “approximately,” “intends,” “plans,” “estimates,” or “anticipates” or similar expressions which concern our strategy, plans or intentions. All statements we make relating to estimated and projected earnings, margins, costs, expenditures, cash flows, growth rates, financial results and pro forma estimates are forward-looking statements. In addition, we, through our senior management, from time to time make forward-looking public statements concerning our expected future operations and performance and other developments. All of these forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties that may change at any time, and, therefore, our actual results may differ materially from those we expected. We derive most of our forward-looking statements from our operating budgets and forecasts, which are based upon many detailed assumptions. While we believe that our assumptions are reasonable, we caution that it is very difficult to predict the impact of known factors, and, of course, it is impossible for us to anticipate all factors that could affect our actual results. Some of the factors that we believe could affect our results include: global economic and market conditions; the condition of the financial services industry, including the effect of any further consolidation among financial services firms; our high degree of debt-related leverage; the effect of war, terrorism, natural disasters or other catastrophic events; the effect of disruptions to our systems and infrastructure; the timing and magnitude of software sales; the timing and scope of technological advances; customers taking their information availability solutions in-house; the trend in information availability toward solutions utilizing more dedicated resources; the market and credit risks associated with broker/dealer operations; the ability to retain and attract customers and key personnel; risks relating to the foreign countries where we transact business; the integration and performance of acquired businesses; the ability to obtain patent protection and avoid patent-related liabilities in the context of a rapidly developing legal framework for software and business-method patents; a material weakness in our internal controls; and unanticipated changes in our income tax provision or the enactment of new tax legislation, issuance of regulations or relevant judicial decisions. The factors described in this paragraph and other factors that may affect our business or future financial results are discussed in our periodic filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, copies of which may be obtained from us without charge. We assume no obligation to update any written or oral forward-looking statement made by us or on our behalf as a result of new information, future events or other factors.

Note 1. Reconciliation of Segment Adjusted EBITDA to Operating Income (Loss)

We evaluate the performance of our segments using non-GAAP measures. Our primary non-GAAP measure is Adjusted EBITDA, whose corresponding GAAP measure is operating income. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as operating income excluding depreciation, amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets, goodwill impairment, severance and facility closure charges, stock compensation, management fees, and certain other costs.

We believe Adjusted EBITDA is an effective tool to measure our operating performance since it excludes non-cash items and certain variable charges. We use Adjusted EBITDA extensively to measure both SunGard and its reportable segments within the Company and also to report our results to our board of directors.

While Adjusted EBITDA is useful for analysis purposes, it should not be considered as an alternative to our reported GAAP results. Also, Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies. Adjusted EBITDA is similar, but not identical, to adjusted EBITDA per the Senior Secured Credit Agreement for purposes of our debt covenants (see Note 2).

The following is a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin to the corresponding reported GAAP measures that we believe to be most directly comparable. Percentage changes are computed based on unrounded amounts.

Note 2. Reconciliation of Income (Loss) from Continuing Operations to EBITDA and Reconciliation of EBITDA to Adjusted EBITDA Per Senior Secured Credit Agreement

EBITDA represents income (loss) from continuing operations before interest expense, income taxes and depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA per our Senior Secured Credit Agreement is defined as EBITDA further adjusted to give effect to certain items that are required in calculating covenant compliance under our senior secured credit facilities, as amended, our senior notes and senior subordinated notes. Adjusted EBITDA per our Senior Secured Credit Agreement is calculated by subtracting from or adding to EBITDA items of income or expense described below. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA per our Senior Secured Credit Agreement are not recognized terms under generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA per our Senior Secured Credit Agreement do not represent income (loss) from continuing operations, as that term is defined under GAAP, and should not be considered as an alternative to income (loss) from continuing operations as an indicator of our operating performance. Additionally, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA per our Senior Secured Credit Agreement are not intended to be measures of free cash flow available for management or discretionary use as such measures do not consider certain cash requirements such as capital expenditures (including capitalized software expense), tax payments and debt service requirements. SunGard considers EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA per our Senior Secured Credit Agreement to be key indicators of our ability to pay our debt. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA per our Senior Secured Credit Agreement as presented herein are not necessarily comparable to similarly titled measures. The following is a reconciliation of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA per our Senior Secured Credit Agreement to income (loss) from continuing operations, the GAAP measure we believe to be most directly comparable to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA per our Senior Secured Credit Agreement. Further information regarding this reconciliation is included in our periodic filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.
