AFFINION GROUP, INC. ANNOUNCES RESULTS FOR THE SECOND QUARTER

ENDED JUNE 30, 2014

AND UPDATES 2014 ADJUSTED EBITDA GUIDANCE TO A RANGE OF $280-295 MILLION

STAMFORD, Conn., July 31, 2014 – Affinion Group, Inc. (“Affinion” or the “Company”), the global leader in enabling companies to connect and engage with their customers, thereby creating rewarding relationships and enhancing brand loyalty, announced today the financial results for the three month period ended June 30, 2014 (“second quarter”) for both Affinion and its parent company, Affinion Group Holdings, Inc. (“Affinion Holdings”).

“During the second quarter we continued to successfully execute against our strategic plans across all of our lines of business,” said Todd Siegel, Affinion’s Chief Executive Officer. “In addition, we further strengthened our balance sheet through an amendment and extension of our term loan and revolver and the exchange of nearly $90 million of our debt for newly issued equity. As a result, we now have no meaningful maturities until 2018, as well as increased covenant headroom and less net debt.”

“While we are pleased with the results of most of our operating segments, in particular our loyalty, international and membership businesses, our overall results were impacted by a significantly higher cost of insurance this quarter,” continued Siegel. “While there are likely several factors at play, we believe this is largely due to an acceleration of claims into this period in connection with the conversion to our new primary carrier. This claims activity appears to be due to the unanticipated velocity at which our legacy carrier has processed claims as they exit our relationship. While we believe that this is primarily a timing impact and expect that the cost of insurance will revert to its historical average, it will likely take some time to normalize and revert to the mean. Accordingly, we feel it is prudent to update our full year Adjusted EBITDA guidance from our previous estimate to a range of $280 million to $295 million.”

Results Highlights

Notes: Adjusted EBITDA as referred to above excludes any pro forma impact of acquisitions. See Tables 6 and 11 for a complete description of Adjusted EBITDA and the related reconciliations to GAAP measures.

Second Quarter Net Revenues

•

Net revenues for the second quarter of 2014 decreased 9.6%, from $336.1 million in the second quarter of 2013, to $303.8 million, due primarily to the expected declines in Membership products revenues, as well as a decline in Insurance and Package revenues, partially offset by growth in International revenue.

•

The decrease in North America overall net revenues was primarily due to a decline in Membership retail member volumes related to regulatory challenges facing large financial institution marketing partners, as well as lower Insurance revenues primarily due to an increased cost of insurance from higher than anticipated claims experience mainly as a result of the timing of claims in connection with a conversion to a new primary carrier.

•

International revenue increased primarily due to higher retail membership revenue in online and offline acquisition channels associated with increased members, as well as a favorable foreign exchange impact.

Second Quarter Operating Results

•

Adjusted EBITDA (as defined in Note (d) of Table 6) decreased 32.5%, from $84.6 million in the second quarter of 2013 to $57.1 million in the current year period.

•

Segment EBITDA decreased 38.0%, from $59.2 million in the second quarter of 2013 to $36.7 million. The decrease was largely driven by lower net revenues in Membership and Insurance and Package products, primarily from the increased cost of insurance for the reasons set forth above, partially offset by lower marketing and commissions and lower general and administrative expenses.

•

As compared to Segment EBITDA, second quarter Adjusted EBITDA reflects the exclusion of, among other items, $8.0 million in costs related primarily to the restructuring of certain operations including related severance costs, $6.0 million in debt financing costs, $2.0 million in costs relating to previously disclosed litigation matters, $1.2 million of stock compensation expense and $1.2 million in costs related to the previously disclosed conversion to a new carrier relationship.

Segment Commentary

North America:

Membership products net revenues decreased by $23.9 million, or 17.4%, to $113.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2014 as compared to $137.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013. Net Membership revenue decreased primarily due to a decline in retail member volumes in connection with the ongoing reduction in new marketing campaigns with large domestic financial institutions.

Membership segment EBITDA decreased by $16.2 million, or 47.1%, for the three months ended June 30, 2014 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2013. Segment EBITDA decreased as the impact of the lower net revenues and higher general and administrative costs which were partially offset by lower marketing and commissions and lower product and servicing costs.

Insurance and Package products net revenues decreased by $14.9 million, or 20.6%, to $57.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2014 as compared to $72.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013. Insurance revenue decreased due to a higher cost of insurance from higher claims experience. While there are likely several factors at play, we believe this is largely due to an acceleration of claims into this period in connection with the conversion to our new primary carrier. This claims activity appears to be due to the unanticipated velocity at which our legacy carrier has processed claims as they exit our relationship. Package revenue decreased primarily due to the impact of lower average Package members.

Insurance and Package segment EBITDA increased by $0.6 million, or 9.8%, for the three months ended June 30, 2014 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2013 as the benefit from the absence in 2014 of costs associated with a contract termination settlement recorded in 2013 was substantially offset by the impact of the lower net revenues.

Loyalty revenues were relatively flat with a slight decrease of $0.9 million, or 2.1%, for the three months ended June 30, 2014 to $42.8 million as compared to $43.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013, primarily due to the slower ramp up of new client programs.

Loyalty segment EBITDA decreased by $2.1 million, or 10.9%, for the three months ended June 30, 2014 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2013, primarily due to the decrease in net revenue and the ongoing investments in new channels and new client start-up costs.

International:

International products net revenues increased by $7.3 million, or 8.7%, to $90.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2014 as compared to $83.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013. Net revenues increased primarily from higher retail membership revenue in both our online and offline acquisition channels associated with increased members. Net revenues were also positively impacted by $3.8 million from foreign exchange.

International segment EBITDA was unchanged at $3.0 million, for the three months ended June 30, 2014 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2013 as the positive impact of the higher revenue and lower general and administrative expense was offset by higher marketing and commissions expense and higher operating costs.

Upon cancellation of a subscriber or an insured, as applicable, the subscriber’s or insured’s, as applicable, revenues are no longer recognized in the calculation.

⁽²⁾

Average Global Subscribers and Average Supplemental Insureds for the period are all calculated by determining the average subscribers or insureds, as applicable, for each month in the period (adding the number of subscribers or insureds, as applicable, at the beginning of the month with the number of subscribers or insureds, as applicable, at the end of the month and dividing that total by two) and then averaging that result for the period. A subscriber’s or insured’s, as applicable, account is added or removed in the period in which the subscriber or insured, as applicable, has joined or cancelled.

Effect of the pro forma adjustments ^(f)		17.1

Adjusted EBITDA, including pro forma adjustments ^(g)	$	267.9

^(a)	Represents consolidated financial data for the year ended December 31, 2013, minus consolidated financial data for the six months ended June 30, 2013, plus consolidated financial data for the six months ended June 30, 2014.

^(b)

Eliminates the effect of purchase accounting related to the Apollo Transactions and acquisition of Boyner Bireysel Urunler Satis ve Pazarlama A.S. (“Back-Up”), a Turkish provider of concierge and other assistance services and a sister company, Bofis Turizm ve Ticaret A.S. (“Travel”), a Turkish travel agency, legal costs for certain legal matters and costs associated with severance incurred.

^(c)

Eliminates (i) net changes in certain reserves, (ii) foreign currency gains and losses related to unusual, non-recurring intercompany transactions, (iii) the loss from an investment accounted for under the equity method, (iv) costs associated with certain strategic and corporate development activities, including business optimization, (v) consulting fees paid to Apollo and (vi) the impact of an adjustment related to the recognition of International retail revenue.

^(d)

Adjusted EBITDA consists of income from operations before depreciation and amortization further adjusted to exclude non-cash and unusual items and other adjustments permitted in our debt agreements to test the permissibility of certain types of transactions, including debt incurrence. We believe that the inclusion of Adjusted EBITDA is appropriate as a liquidity measure. Adjusted EBITDA is not a measurement of liquidity or financial performance under U.S. GAAP and Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. You should not consider Adjusted EBITDA as an alternative to cash flows from operating activities determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP, as an indicator of cash flows, as a measure of liquidity, as an alternative to operating or net income determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP or as an indicator of operating performance.

^(e)

Adjusted EBITDA, excluding pro forma adjustments, does not give pro forma effect to the projected annualized benefits of restructurings and other cost savings initiatives. However, we do make such accretive pro forma adjustments as if such restructurings and cost savings initiatives had occurred on July 1, 2013 in calculating the Adjusted EBITDA under the amended and restated senior secured credit facility and the indentures governing Affinion’s 7.875% senior notes due 2018 (the “2010 senior notes”) and Affinion’s 13.5% senior subordinated notes due 2018 (the “2013 senior subordinated notes”).

^(f)	Gives effect to the projected annualized benefits of restructurings and other cost savings initiatives as if such restructurings and cost savings initiatives had occurred on July 1, 2013.

^(g)	Adjusted EBITDA, including pro forma adjustments, gives pro forma effect to the adjustments discussed in (f) above.

^(j)	The senior secured leverage ratio is defined in our amended and restated senior secured credit facility, as amended on May 20, 2014 (senior secured debt, as defined, to Adjusted EBITDA, as defined). The senior secured leverage ratio must be equal to or less than 4.25 to 1.0 at June 30, 2014.
