Energy and specialized markets category revenue grew 70.4%. Organic revenue, excluding the recently acquired Wood

Mackenzie (which will be treated as organic starting with the third quarter), PCI, and Infield businesses, declined 9.6% as a result of softer demand for certain environmental health and safety solutions.

Risk Assessment segment revenue grew 5.5% in the quarter and 5.3% excluding the recent acquisition of Risk Intelligence Ireland.
Revenue growth in industry-standard insurance programs was 6.0%, and 5.7% on an organic basis, resulting primarily from the annual effect of growth in 2016 invoicing effective from January 1 and growth from new solutions.
Property-specific rating and underwriting information revenue grew 3.8% in the second quarter. Growth was led by an increase in commercial underwriting solutions subscription revenue.

Expenses and Income
Cost of revenues from continuing operations increased 15.4% compared with second-quarter 2015. The year-over-year increase is primarily due to acquisitions as well as salaries, benefits, and technology to support business growth.
Selling, general, and administrative expense, or SG&A, from continuing operations decreased 8.2% in the quarter because one-time acquisition costs in the prior period did not recur.
Income from continuing operations decreased 32.8% to $107 million. The prior period included a hedge gain that more than offset one-time costs related to the acquisition of Wood Mackenzie. Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations increased 12.4% to $245 million.
The 20.8% increase to $141 million in Decision Analytics adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations was the result of acquisitions and profitable growth of the business.     
Second-quarter 2016 adjusted EBITDA in Risk Assessment increased 2.9% to $105 million as a result of revenue growth and good expense management, partially offset by anticipated increases in hiring to support future growth in the business.

Earnings Per Share
Diluted GAAP EPS was $0.62 for second-quarter 2016, a decrease of 34.7%; the prior period included a hedge gain that more than offset one-time costs related to the acquisition of Wood Mackenzie. Diluted adjusted EPS was $0.73 for second-quarter 2016, an increase of 1.4% compared with the same period in 2015. Adjusted EPS from continuing operations increased because of solid operations, both organic and acquired, and lower interest expense. The increases were partially offset by higher fixed asset depreciation and amortization expense and an increase in shares outstanding related to the 2015 acquisition of Wood Mackenzie.
Cash Flow
Cash provided by operating activities from continuing operations less capital expenditures from continuing operations increased 21.1% to $305 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2016, including the contribution from acquisitions. Cash provided by operating activities from continuing operations less capital expenditures from continuing operations represented 141.1% of income from continuing operations and 61.9% of adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations for the six-months ended June 30, 2016. Capital expenditures from continuing operations increased 4.6% to $52 million and were 5.2% of revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2016.
Share Repurchases and Financing Activities
At June 30, 2016, the company had $353 million remaining under its share repurchase authorization. As part of its commitment to deleveraging, the company repaid $705 million of debt in the quarter.

Forward-Looking Statements
This release contains forward-looking statements. These statements relate to future events or to future financial performance and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties, and other factors that may cause our actual results, levels of activity, performance, or achievements to be materially different from any future results, levels of activity, performance, or achievements expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by the use of words such as “may,” “could,” “expect,” “intend,” “plan,” “target,” “seek,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “predict,” “potential,” or “continue” or the negative of these terms or other comparable terminology. You should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements because they involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties, and other factors that are, in some cases, beyond our control and that could materially affect actual results, levels of activity, performance, or achievements.

5



Other factors that could materially affect actual results, levels of activity, performance, or achievements can be found in Verisk’s quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, annual reports on Form 10-K, and current reports on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. If any of these risks or uncertainties materialize or if our underlying assumptions prove to be incorrect, actual results may vary significantly from what we projected. Any forward-looking statement in this release reflects our current views with respect to future events and is subject to these and other risks, uncertainties, and assumptions relating to our operations, results of operations, growth strategy, and liquidity. We assume no obligation to publicly update or revise these forward-looking statements for any reason, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise.
Notes Regarding the Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The company has provided certain non-GAAP financial information as supplemental information regarding its operating results. These measures are not in accordance with, or an alternative for, U.S. GAAP and may be different from non-GAAP measures reported by other companies. The company believes that its presentation of non-GAAP measures, such as adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, adjusted net income from continuing operations, adjusted EPS, and free cash flow, provides useful information to management and investors regarding certain financial and business trends relating to its financial condition and results of operations. In addition, the company’s management uses these measures for reviewing the financial results of the company and for budgeting and planning purposes.
Adjusted EBITDA is a financial measure that management uses to evaluate the performance of our segments. In all periods shown here and going forward, the company defines “adjusted EBITDA” as net income from continuing operations before interest expense, income taxes, and depreciation and amortization of fixed and intangible assets and excluding second-quarter nonrecurring items related to the Wood Mackenzie acquisition.
Although securities analysts, lenders, and others frequently use EBITDA in their evaluation of companies, EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for an analysis of our statement of cash flow reported under U.S. GAAP. Management uses adjusted EBITDA in conjunction with traditional U.S. GAAP operating performance measures as part of its overall assessment of company performance. Some of these limitations are as follows:
Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect our cash expenditures or future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments.
Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs.
Although depreciation and amortization are noncash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized often will have to be replaced in the future, and adjusted EBITDA does not reflect any cash requirements for such replacements.
Other companies in our industry may calculate adjusted EBITDA differently than we do, limiting the usefulness of their calculations as comparative measures.
See Table 4 for a reconciliation of adjusted EBITDA to income from continuing operations, Table 5 for a reconciliation of adjusted net income to income from continuing operations, and Table 6 for a reconciliation of free cash flow.
