Non-Core Gains and Charges
In connection with a recent review of our business, we determined that the new data supply chain was not a necessary component of our go forward strategy to grow the business, and that our prior MaxCV goals to reduce the cost of operations to drive sustainability can be largely met without deployment of the new data supply chain.  Accordingly, during the fourth quarter of 2013, we took a $28.2 million pre-tax non-core charge related to the write-off of the new data supply chain ($23.2 million net after-tax, non-core charge).
In addition, we identified certain other assets that we determined are not critical to our strategy to grow the business.  We therefore took an aggregate of $5.1 million of pre-tax non-core charges related to the write- off of these assets ($3.9 million net after-tax, non-core charge).
See attached Schedule 5 for additional explanations and detail of these charges.

Cash Dividend Increased
D&B today announced that it has declared an increased quarterly cash dividend of $0.44 per share, up from D&B’s prior quarterly dividend of $0.40 per share. This quarterly cash dividend is payable on March 12, 2014, to shareholders of record at the close of business on February 25, 2014.


Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
D&B's restructuring charges may be viewed as recurring as they are part of its Financial Flexibility initiatives. In addition to reporting GAAP results, the Company reports results before restructuring charges and other non-core gains and charges, such as legal and other professional expenses associated with the ongoing China investigation, because they do not reflect the Company's underlying business performance and they may have a disproportionate positive or negative impact on the results of its ongoing business operations.
D&B reports non-GAAP financial measures in this press release and the schedules attached. See “Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - How We Manage Our Business” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ending December 31, 2012, filed February 28, 2013 with the SEC, for a discussion of how the Company defines these measures, why it uses them and why it believes they provide useful information to investors. Additionally, these measures are defined in Schedule 5 attached to this press release.

N/M - Not Meaningful
 
The following defines the non-GAAP measures used to evaluate performance:
 
*Total revenue excluding the revenue of divested and shut-down businesses is referred to as “core revenue.” Core revenue includes the revenue from acquired businesses from the date of acquisition
*Core revenue growth, excluding the effects of foreign exchange, is referred to as “core revenue growth before the effects of foreign exchange.” We also separately, from time to time, analyze core revenue growth before the effects of foreign exchange among two components, “organic core revenue growth” and “core revenue growth from acquisitions”
*Results (such as operating income, operating income growth, operating margin, net income, tax rate and diluted earnings per share) exclude Restructuring Charges (whether recurring or non-recurring) and certain other items that we consider do not reflect our underlying business performance. We refer to these Restructuring Charges and other items as “non-core gains and (charges)”
* Net cash provided by operating activities minus capital expenditures and additions to computer software and other intangibles is referred to as “free cash flow”
