CINCINNATI, Feb. 3, 2016 - Vantiv, Inc. (NYSE: VNTV) (“Vantiv” or the “company”) today announced financial results for the fourth quarter and full-year ended December 31, 2015. For the fourth quarter, revenue increased 16% to $852 million as compared to $734 million in the prior year period. Net revenue increased 13% to $453 million as compared to $402 million in the prior year period, reflecting strong growth in both of our segments. On a GAAP basis, net income attributable to Vantiv, Inc. was $51 million or $0.31 per diluted share as compared to $69 million or $0.35 per diluted share in the prior year period. Pro forma adjusted net income increased 22% to $128 million as compared to $105 million in the prior year period. Pro forma adjusted net income per share increased 23% to $0.65 as compared to $0.53 in the prior year period. (See Schedule 2 for pro forma adjusted net income and Schedule 6 for GAAP net income reconciliation to pro forma adjusted net income.)
For the full-year 2015, revenue increased 23% to $3,160 million as compared to $2,577 million in the prior year. Net revenue increased 20% to $1,682 million as compared to $1,403 million in the prior year. On a GAAP basis, net income attributable to Vantiv, Inc. was $148 million or $0.95 per diluted share in 2015 as compared to $125 million or $0.75 per diluted share in the prior year. Pro forma adjusted net income increased 21% to $449 million as compared to $372 million in the prior year. Pro forma adjusted net income per share increased 20% to $2.24 as compared to $1.87 in the prior year. (See Schedule 2 for pro forma adjusted net income and Schedule 7 for GAAP net income reconciliation to pro forma adjusted net income.)
Vantiv’s scale and superior cost structure continue to drive high levels of profitability. For the fourth quarter, adjusted EBITDA margin expanded by 100 basis points to 49.1% as compared to 48.1% in the prior year period, primarily due to cost synergies created by the on-going integration of Mercury Payment Systems (“Mercury”). For the full-year 2015, adjusted EBITDA margin was flat as compared to the prior year, primarily due to impacts from the Mercury acquisition, which were offset by cost synergies realized during the year. (See Schedule 8 for a reconciliation of GAAP net income to adjusted EBITDA.)
“Our strong results in 2015 demonstrate how our strategy to invest in our core strengths while expanding into high-growth channels and verticals has successfully generated sustainable organic growth across our business,” said Charles Drucker, president and chief executive officer at Vantiv. “I am proud of the way that our people have navigated the changes in the payments industry to make this a great year while simultaneously positioning us for continued future success.”
Merchant Services
For the fourth quarter, Merchant Services net revenue increased 14% to $363 million as compared to $318 million in the prior year period, primarily due to an 8% increase in transactions and a 5% increase in net revenue per transaction as our high growth channels continued to grow at above market rates. Sales and marketing expenses increased 16% to $125 million in the fourth quarter as compared to $108 million in the prior year period, primarily due to new sales growth.
For the full-year 2015, Merchant Services net revenue increased 25% to $1,336 million as compared to $1,067 million in the prior year, primarily due to a 17% increase in transactions and a 7% increase in net revenue per transaction. The Mercury acquisition was completed during the second quarter of 2014. On a pro forma organic basis, Merchant Services net revenue would have increased 14% for full-year 2015 as compared to the prior year if we had owned Mercury throughout both years. Sales and marketing expenses increased 30% to $479 million for the full-year as compared to $368 million in the prior year, due to new sales growth, as well as impacts from the Mercury acquisition.
1
Financial Institution Services
For the fourth quarter, Financial Institution Services net revenue increased 7% to $90 million as compared to $84 million in the prior year period, primarily due to a 4% increase in transactions and a 3% increase in net revenue per transaction primarily due to value added services including the impact of EMV card reissuance. Sales and marketing expenses decreased 14% to $7 million in the fourth quarter as compared to $8 million in the prior year period.
For the full-year 2015, Financial Institution Services net revenue increased 3% to $346 million as compared to $336 million in the prior year as a 6% increase in transactions was partially offset by lower net revenue per transaction. Sales and marketing expenses decreased 11% to $25 million for the full-year from $28 million in the prior year.
Full-Year and First Quarter 2016 Financial Outlook
Based on the current level of transaction trends and new business activity, net revenue for the full-year 2016 is expected to be $1,795 to $1,825 million, representing an increase of 7% to 9% above the prior year. Pro forma adjusted net income per share is expected to be $2.55 to $2.61 for the full-year, representing an increase of 14% to 17% above the prior year. GAAP net income per share attributable to Vantiv, Inc. is expected to be $1.27 to $1.33 for the full-year 2016.
For the first quarter of 2016, net revenue is expected to be $405 to $410 million, representing an increase of 8% to 9% above the prior year period. Pro forma adjusted net income per share for the first quarter of 2016 is expected to be $0.51 to $0.53, representing an increase of 13% to 18% above the prior year period.

As you review and consider information presented herein, you should understand that these statements are not guarantees of future performance or results. They depend upon future events and are subject to risks, uncertainties (many of which are beyond our control) and assumptions. Although we believe that these forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions, you should be aware that many factors could affect our actual future performance or results and cause them to differ materially from those anticipated in the forward-looking statements. Certain of these factors and other risks are discussed in the company's filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and include, but are not limited to: (i) our ability to adapt to developments and change in our industry; (ii) competition; (iii) unauthorized disclosure of data or security breaches; (iv) systems failures or interruptions; (v) our ability to expand our market share or enter new markets; (vi) our ability to identify and complete acquisitions, joint ventures and partnerships; (vii) failure to comply with applicable requirements of Visa, MasterCard or other payment networks or changes in those requirements; (viii) our ability to pass along fee increases; (ix) termination of sponsorship or clearing services; (x) loss of clients or referral partners; (xi) reductions in overall consumer, business and government spending; (xii) fraud by merchants or others; (xiii) a decline in the use of credit, debit or prepaid cards; (xiv) consolidation in the banking and retail industries; (xv) the effects of governmental regulation or changes in laws; and (xvi) outcomes of future litigation or investigations.

(1) Non-operating income (expense) for the three months and year ended December 31, 2015 primarily relates to the change in fair value of a tax receivable agreement ("TRA") entered into as part of the acquisition of Mercury. The three months ended December 31, 2014 amount relates to a benefit recorded as a result of a reduction in certain TRA liabilities, partially offset by the change in fair value of a TRA entered into as part of the acquisition of Mercury. The full year 2014 amount includes these items as well as expenses relating to the refinancing of our senior secured credit facilities in June 2014.
(2) Due to our structure as a C corporation and Vantiv Holding's structure as a pass-through entity for tax purposes, the numerator in the diluted net income per share calculation is adjusted to reflect our income tax expense at an expected effective tax rate assuming the conversion of the Class B units of Vantiv Holding into shares of our Class A common stock. The expected effective tax rate for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2015 was 36.0% compared to 36.5% for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2014. The components of the diluted net income per share calculation are as follows:

Non-GAAP and Pro Forma Financial Measures
This schedule presents non-GAAP and pro forma financial measures, which are important financial performance measures for the Company, but are not financial measures as defined by GAAP. Such financial measures should not be considered as alternatives to GAAP net income, and such measures may not be comparable to those reported by other companies.
Pro forma adjusted net income is derived from GAAP net income, adjusting for the following items: (a) amortization of intangible assets acquired in business combinations and customer portfolio and related asset acquisitions and the write down of a trade name in June 2014; (b) non-operating income (expense) is primarily associated with the refinancing of our debt in 2014, a benefit recorded as a result of a reduction in certain TRA liabilities in 2014, and the change in fair value of a TRA entered into as part of the acquisition of Mercury; (c) adjustments to income tax expense assuming conversion of the Fifth Third Bank non-controlling interests into shares of Class A common stock; (d) share-based compensation; (e) acquisition and integration costs incurred in connection with our acquisitions, costs associated with our separation from Fifth Third Bank and charges related to employee termination benefits and other transition activities; and (f) tax benefits due to the amortization of intangible assets and other tax attributes resulting from or acquired with our acquisitions, and to the tax basis step up associated with our separation from Fifth Third Bank and the purchase or exchange of Class B units of Vantiv Holding, net of payment obligations under tax receivable agreements.
(1) See schedule 8 for a reconciliation of GAAP net income to adjusted EBITDA.
(2) Represents income tax expense at an effective rate of 36.0% for the three months and year ended December 31, 2015 and 36.5% for the three months and year ended December 31, 2014, assuming the conversion of the Class B units of Vantiv Holding into shares of Class A common stock, including the tax effect of adjustments described above.
(3) Represents tax benefits due to the amortization of intangible assets and other tax attributes resulting from or acquired with our acquisitions, and to the tax basis step up associated with our separation from Fifth Third Bank and the purchase or exchange of Class B units of Vantiv Holding, net of payment obligations under tax receivable agreements.
(4) Represents the non-controlling interest, net of pro forma income tax expense discussed in (2) above, associated with a consolidated joint venture formed in May 2014.
(5) Pro forma adjusted net income assumes the conversion of non-controlling interests into shares of Class A common stock.
(6) Pro forma adjusted net income per share is calculated as pro forma adjusted net income divided by adjusted shares outstanding.

Pro Forma Financial Measures
This schedule presents pro forma financial measures, which are important financial performance measures for the Company, but are not financial measures as defined by GAAP. Such financial measures should not be considered as alternatives to GAAP net income, and such measures may not be comparable to those reported by other companies.
(1) Represents acquisition and integration costs incurred in connection with our acquisitions, costs associated with our separation from Fifth Third Bank and charges related to employee termination benefits and other transition activities.
(2) Represents amortization of intangible assets acquired through business combinations and customer portfolio and related asset acquisitions.
(3) Non-operating income (expense) during 2015 primarily relates to the change in fair value of a TRA entered into as part of the acquisition of Mercury. The 2014 amount relates to a benefit recorded as a result of a reduction in certain TRA liabilities, partially offset by the change in fair value of a TRA entered into as part of the acquisition of Mercury.
(4) Represents the non-controlling interest, net of pro forma income tax expense discussed in (5) below, associated with a consolidated joint venture formed in May 2014.
(5) Represents adjustments to income tax expense to reflect an effective tax rate of 36.0% for the three months ended December 31, 2015 and 36.5% for the three months ended December 31, 2014, assuming the conversion of the Class B units of Vantiv Holding into shares of Class A common stock, including the tax effect of adjustments described above.
(6) Represents tax benefits due to the amortization of intangible assets and other tax attributes resulting from or acquired with our acquisitions, and to the tax basis step up associated with our separation from Fifth Third Bank and the purchase or exchange of Class B units of Vantiv Holding, net of payment obligations under tax receivable agreements.
