ALTISOURCE ANNOUNCES RECORD RESULTS
Luxembourg, April 24, 2014 - Altisource Portfolio Solutions S.A. (“Altisource” and NASDAQ: ASPS) today reported record service revenue, net income attributable to shareholders and diluted earnings per share. The quarter over quarter growth in service revenue and net income was primarily driven by the higher number of loans that were boarded on REALServicing in 2013 and the inclusion of a full quarter of Equator, LLC operations.
First Quarter 2014 Results Compared to First Quarter 2013:
· Service revenue of $210.0 million, a 65% increase
· Net income attributable to Altisource of $39.6 million, a 44% increase
· Diluted earnings per share of $1.61, a 46% increase
· Cash from operations of $36.3 million, a 280% increase
“Altisource had a very strong quarter, marking the 12th straight quarter of sequential service revenue growth. To maintain this trend, we remain focused on executing against our strategic plan,” said Chairman William Erbey.
William Shepro, Chief Executive Officer, further commented, “We are focused on providing high quality, compliant services to our customers while diligently executing on our 2014 strategic initiatives to diversify our customer base and grow our revenue and earnings. Our strong cash flow generation provides us the ability to invest in our next generation technologies, acquire businesses that advance our strategic objectives and repurchase our common stock.”
First quarter 2014 highlights include:
· Gross profit as a percentage of service revenue was 44% for the quarter, an increase from 41% for the same quarter in 2013 driven by margin expansion in all of the Company’s operating segments
· The average number of delinquent non-Government Sponsored Enterprise loans serviced by Ocwen on REALServicing totaled 369 thousand for the three months ended March 31, 2014, an increase of 57% compared to the three months ended March 31, 2013
· We repurchased 0.3 million shares of our common stock under our stock repurchase program at an average price of $109.97 per share during the three months ended March 31, 2014
