Business Summary
“We are pleased with our performance this quarter, particularly the solid revenue contribution coming from Education and Professional Development solutions, including online program management (Deltak), WileyPLUS, and online training and assessment,” said Steve Smith, President and CEO of Wiley.   “In Research, journal subscriptions showed healthy revenue growth, consistent with our expectations, and open access revenue more than doubled vs. the prior year period to $4 million.”

Mr Smith concluded:  “Our momentum through mid-year is fully aligned with our expectations, and we are reiterating our full year guidance for low-single-digit adjusted revenue growth and adjusted EPS of $2.85 to $2.95.”

Second Quarter Highlights
·  
Adjusted revenue on a constant currency basis grew 8% to $449 million, excluding the prior year operating results of the divested consumer publishing programs ($14.1 million of revenue in Q2 FY13). Revenue was up 4% on a US GAAP basis.
·  
Organic revenue, which excludes the prior year operating results of the divested consumer programs and current year results of Deltak and Efficient Learning Systems (ELS), rose 4% for the quarter and 2% for the first six months.  Wiley acquired Deltak and ELS in October and November of 2013, respectively.
·  
Digital book revenue across the three segments increased 40% to $31.4 million.
·  
Adjusted earnings per share (EPS) grew 11% to $0.84.  Adjusted EPS for the current and prior year second quarter excludes: (1) second quarter 2014 restructuring charges of $15.3 million ($0.17/share); (2) second quarter 2014 and 2013 asset impairment charges of $4.8 million ($0.06/share - related to  a terminated software development program) and $15.5 million ($0.16/share – related to divested consumer publishing programs), respectively; (3) the prior year operating results of the divested consumer publishing program of $1.5 million ($0.02/share); and (4) a second quarter FY13 gain on the sale of the travel publishing program of $9.8 million ($0.10/share).  Adjusted revenue growth, restructuring and other savings, and lower taxes offset higher operating and administrative costs, including a 25% increase in technology expense to support transformation initiatives, and higher incentive compensation accruals.  Full year technology spend is expected to be approximately 10% higher than in fiscal year 2013. US GAAP EPS for the quarter was $0.61 per share, down 14%.
·  
Free Cash Flow improved to a use of $112 million for the first six months of the fiscal year compared to a use of $143 million in the prior year period mainly due to lower disputed income tax deposits paid to the German government.  A tax deposit of $29.7 million for disputed taxes in Germany through fiscal year 2007 was paid in the fiscal year 2013 six month period, whereas $10.4 million for disputed taxes in Germany for 2011 was paid in the current period. Through October 31, 2013, the Company has paid tax deposits covering all years through fiscal year 2011. Note that free cash flow is typically negative for Wiley in the first half of a fiscal year due to the timing of journal subscription cash collections.
·  
Restructuring Update:  Wiley recorded restructuring charges of $15.3 million this quarter related to its previously announced restructuring program.  These charges included $10 million of accrued redundancy costs, $3 million of process reengineering consulting costs, and $2 million of other costs including contract termination costs.   Including this charge, Wiley has recorded $47.5 million in restructuring charges since the program began in January 2013. Wiley expects to record additional restructuring charges for the remainder of the fiscal year of approximately $10 million.  As of October 31, 2013, Wiley had developed and approved  plans  to achieve $70 million of its $80 million FY15 run-rate savings goal, with more than half of the $80 million expected to improve earnings in FY15 and the remainder reinvested into the business.
 
 
 

 
 
·  
Impairment Charge:  Wiley terminated a multi-year software development program for an internal operations application due to a change in its longer-term enterprise systems plans.  The Company recorded a $4.8 million impairment related to the termination of this program.
·  
Share Repurchases: Wiley repurchased 85,098 shares this quarter at a cost of $3.9 million, or $46.31/share. As of October 31, 2013, 4,074,454 shares remain in the program, including shares from a nearly completed program authorized in September 2010.

Adjusted Results
The Company provides financial measures referred to as “adjusted” revenue, contribution to profit,  and EPS, which exclude restructuring charges, operating results from divestitures, impairment charges, gain on the sale of publishing programs, and the deferred tax benefits from the changes in UK income tax rates. Variances to adjusted revenue, contribution to profit, and EPS exclude FX impacts unless otherwise noted. Management believes the exclusion of such items provides additional information to facilitate the analysis of results.  These non-GAAP measures are not intended to replace the financial results reported in accordance with GAAP.

Foreign Exchange (“FX”)
Throughout this report, references are made to variances “excluding foreign exchange” or “on a constant currency basis”; such amounts exclude both currency translation effects and transactional gains and losses.  

RESEARCH
·  
Revenue: Second quarter revenue on a constant currency basis rose 2% to $252.9 million due to journal subscription growth (+2%), digital book sales (+45%) and open access fees, which contributed $2.1 million of incremental revenue over the prior year period.  Partially offsetting this growth was a 10% decline in print book revenue.  For the first six months, revenue on a constant currency basis grew 4%, with journal subscription revenue up 3%.
·  
Adjusted Contribution to Profit: Second quarter adjusted contribution to profit (after allocated shared services and administrative costs) grew 1% on a constant currency basis to $73.7 million due to revenue growth and restructuring and other savings, partially offset by higher society royalty costs.  Adjusted contribution to profit for the second quarter of fiscal year 2014 excludes second quarter restructuring charges of $3.4 million, related to the aforementioned restructuring program.  For the first six months, adjusted contribution to profit (after shared services and administrative costs) grew 6% to $141.8 million, excluding the impact of foreign exchange.
·  
Society Business:  Two new society journals were signed in the quarter with combined annual revenue of $7.8 million; 13 were renewed worth approximately $10.5 million in annual revenue; and none were lost.
·  
Other Key Developments:  In August, Wiley announced a licensing agreement with Information Handling Services (NYSE: IHS), a global informatics company.  Under the agreement, IHS added Wiley digital books, databases and major reference works to IHS’s collection of technical documents spanning engineering standards and related industry and technical knowledge.

PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT
·  
Adjusted Revenue:  Second quarter adjusted revenue grew 7% to $92.5 million, excluding FX and revenue from the divested consumer publishing programs in the prior year period.  Adjusted revenue growth was driven by digital books (+30%) and online training and assessment (+44%).  For the first six months, adjusted revenue on a constant currency basis was essentially flat.  Excluding the results of the ELS online training and assessment acquisition in the current year, and the prior year divested consumer publishing programs, year-to-date revenue declined 2% as compared to the prior year period.  The effect of Hurricane Sandy delayed approximately $2 million of print sales into the third quarter of the prior year.  
 
 
 

 
 
·  
Adjusted Contribution to Profit:  Second quarter adjusted contribution to profit (after allocated shared service and administrative costs) grew from $3.3 million to $9.2 million due to revenue growth and restructuring and other savings.  Adjusted contribution to profit excludes restructuring charges of $2.1 million in the current period; the operating results from the divested consumer assets in the prior year period of $1.5 million; and a prior year net charge of $5.7 million reflecting an impairment of divested consumer assets, net of a gain on sale.  For the first six months, adjusted contribution to profit (after shared services and administrative costs) grew $5.1 million to $10.9 million, excluding the impact of foreign exchange.
·  
Online training and assessment showed strong growth, driven by Inscape (+22%) and continued strength in CPA, CMA, and CFA test prep businesses.
 
 
EDUCATION
·  
Revenue:  Second quarter revenue on a constant currency basis grew 30% to $103.7 million, driven by the contribution from Deltak (+$16.5 million) and growth in digital books (+55%), binder and custom products (+40%), and the WileyPLUS course management solution (+26%).  For the first six months, Education revenue overall increased 22% (to $184.8 million) on a constant currency basis primarily due to the contribution of Deltak (+$31.3 million).  Contributing to second quarter growth was the favorable impact of later ordering in the current year due to late semester starts in the US and the shift to digital formats, which pushed revenue into the second quarter.  Second quarter and year-to-date revenue comparisons include the favorable impact of $2 million of sales delayed into the third quarter of the prior year due to Hurricane Sandy, in addition to earlier-than-usual orders in the Australia schools business in the current year.
·  
Adjusted Contribution to Profit:  Second quarter adjusted contribution to profit (after allocated shared service and administrative costs) grew 43% to $22.8 million, reflecting revenue growth, gross margin improvement related to the continued migration to digital products and services, and restructuring and other savings.  For the first six months, adjusted contribution to profit (after shared services and administrative costs) increased 17% to $28.9 million, excluding the impact of foreign exchange.
·  
Online Program Management (OPM):  Deltak contributed $16.5 million of revenue in the quarter.  The Company signed the University of Texas (McCombs School of Business) during the quarter, bringing the total number of institutions under contract to 34.  As of October 31, 2013, Deltak had 107 programs generating revenue and 43 programs under contract and in development but not yet generating revenue.
·  
International Deltak OPM Opportunity:  Deltak and Purdue University have partnered in the launch of Purdue NExT, online course offerings available globally that focus on upper-level engineering, science, and technology disciplines.  The courses are marketed to three distinct markets: individuals looking to enhancing their skills and job prospects; institutions looking to augment their scientific and engineering curriculum content; and businesses looking to raise employee skill levels in key engineering disciplines.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                         
                         
Adjustments:
                     
 (A)
Restructuring Charges:  The adjusted results for the three and six months ended October 31, 2013 and the six months ended October 31, 2012 exclude restructuring charges  of $15.3 million ($10.4 million after tax, $0.17 per share), $23.1 million ($15.3 million after tax, $0.26 per share) and $4.8 million ($3.5 million after tax, $0.06 per share), respectively.
 
 (B)
Impairment Charges: The adjusted results for the three and six months ended October 31, 2013 exclude asset impairment charges related to certain technology investments of $4.8 million ($3.4 million after tax, $0.06 per share).  The adjusted results for the three and six months ended October 31, 2012 exclude asset impairment charges related to the divested Professional Development consumer publishing programs of $15.5 million ($9.6 million after tax, $0.16 per share).
 
 (C)
Gain on Sale of Travel Publishing Program: The adjusted results for the three and six months ended October 31, 2012 exclude a gain on sale of the travel publishing program of $9.8 million ($6.2 million after tax, $0.10 per share).
 
 (D)
Operating Results of Divested Consumer Programs: The adjusted results for the three and six months ended October 31, 2012 exclude the operating results of the divested Professional Development consumer publishing programs sold in fiscal year 2013.
 
 (E)
Deferred Income Tax Benefit on UK Rate Change: The adjusted results for the six months ended October 31, 2013 and 2012 exclude deferred tax benefits of $10.6 million ($0.18 per share) and $8.4 million ($0.14 per share), respectively. The tax benefits are associated with tax legislation enacted in the United Kingdom that reduced the U.K. corporate income tax rates by 3% and 2%, respectively.  The benefits reflect the remeasurement of the Company's deferred tax balances to the new income tax rates of 21% effective April 1, 2014 and 20% effective April 1, 2015 and had no current cash tax impact.
 
                         
                         
Non-GAAP Financial Measures:
                     
In addition to providing financial results in accordance with GAAP, the Company has provided adjusted financial results that exclude the impact of other nonrecurring items described in more detail throughout this press release.  These non-GAAP financial measures are labeled as "Adjusted" and are used for evaluating the results of operations for internal purposes.  These non-GAAP measures are not intended to replace the presentation of financial results in accordance with GAAP.  Rather, the Company believes the exclusion of such items provides additional information to investors to facilitate the comparison of past and present operations. Unless otherwise noted, adjusted amounts in the attached schedules include foreign exchange.

Note: The Company’s management evaluates performance using free cash flow.  The Company believes free cash flow provides a meaningful and comparable measure of performance.  Since free cash flow is not a measure calculated in accordance with GAAP, it should not be considered as a substitute for other GAAP measures, including cash used for or provided by operating activities, investing activities and financing activities, as an indicator of performance.
