NEW YORK, October 30, 2014 – Thomson Reuters (TSX / NYSE: TRI) today reported results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2014.

Adjusted earnings per share were $0.45 versus $0.48 in the prior-year period

28.4 million shares repurchased since October 2013 returning $1.0 billion to shareholders

2014 Outlook affirmed

“I am pleased to report yet another quarter of results in line with expectations, building on our first-half momentum,” said James C.

Consolidated Financial Highlights – Third Quarter

	Three Months Ended September 30,
	(Millions of U.S. dollars, except EPS and margins)

IFRS Financial Measures	2014		2013		Change
Revenues	$	3,107	$	3,086		1	%
Operating profit	$	466	$	316		47	%
Diluted earnings per share (EPS)	$	0.28	$	0.33		-15	%
Cash flow from operations	$	585	$	676		-13	%

The increase in operating profit was primarily due to favorable fair value adjustments largely associated with foreign currency embedded derivatives in certain customer contracts. The decline in diluted EPS resulted from higher costs associated with foreign currency fluctuations and income tax expense, which more than offset the increase in operating profit.

·	Revenues from ongoing businesses were $3.1 billion, a 1% increase before currency, reflecting 4% combined growth from the company’s Legal, Tax & Accounting and Intellectual Property & Science businesses, which was offset by a 2% decline in Financial & Risk.

·	Adjusted EBITDA decreased 3%, and the corresponding margin was 26.5% versus 27.5% in the prior-year period, primarily due to higher operating costs and charges.

Excluding charges from both periods, the margin was 27.0%, down 80 basis points from the prior-year period.

Excluding charges from both periods and the negative impact of foreign currency the margin was 27.3%, down 10 basis points from the prior-year period.

·	Underlying operating profit decreased 3%, and the corresponding margin was 17.1% versus 17.8% in the prior-year period. The decrease was primarily due to the same factors that impacted adjusted EBITDA.

Excluding charges from both periods, the margin was 17.6%, down 60 basis points from the prior-year period.

Excluding charges for both periods and the negative impact of foreign currency, the margin was 18.0%, up 20 basis points from the prior-year period.

·	Adjusted EPS was $0.45 compared to $0.48 in the prior-year period, down 6%.

Third-Quarter Business Segment Highlights

Unless otherwise noted, all revenue growth comparisons in this news release are before the impact of foreign currency as Thomson Reuters believes this provides the best basis to measure the performance of its business.

Financial & Risk

·	Revenues were down 2% (down 3% organic) due to the impact of negative net sales over the prior 12 months and a 5% organic decline in transactions-related revenues.

·	Recurring subscription-related revenues decreased 3% due to the impact of negative aggregate net sales over the prior 12 months.

·	Transactions-related revenues increased 3% (down 5% organic) due to lower trading volumes in fixed income markets. Recoveries revenues increased 1%.

·	By geography, revenues in Europe, Middle East and Africa (EMEA) were down 4%, and revenues in the Americas and Asia were flat.

·	Net sales were positive for the quarter and were positive for all regions – the Americas, Europe and Asia.

·	EBITDA decreased 6% due to $18 million in charges and the impact of foreign currency. The margin was 25.1% versus 26.4% in the prior-year period.

Excluding charges from both periods, the margin was 26.2%, down 50 basis points from the prior-year period.

Excluding charges from both periods and the negative impact of foreign currency, the margin was 27.1%, up 100 basis points from the prior-year period.

·	Operating profit decreased 8% due to the same items that impacted EBITDA. The margin was 15.5% compared to 16.8% in the prior-year period.

Excluding charges from both periods, the margin was 16.6%, down 50 basis points from the prior-year period.

Excluding charges from both periods and the negative impact of foreign currency the margin was 17.5%, up 100 basis points from the prior-year period.

Legal

·	Revenues increased 1%. Excluding US print, revenues grew 3% (all organic).

·	Solutions businesses (47% of Legal revenues) grew 7% (6% organic), driven by strong growth from Elite, Practical Law and Pangea3. Solutions businesses represent all of Legal’s revenue excluding US print and US online legal information.

·	US online legal information (38% of Legal revenues) declined 1%.

·	US print (15% of Legal revenues) declined 8%.

·	EBITDA increased 1%. The margin was 37.9% compared to 38.0% in the prior-year period.

·	Operating profit increased 2% with a margin of 29.7% versus 29.4% in the prior-year period.

Tax & Accounting

·	Revenues increased 13% (9% organic) with good growth across each segment led by the Corporate business.

·	EBITDA increased 9% and the margin was 23.9% compared to 24.4% in the prior-year period. The EBITDA margin decline was primarily related to reinvestment in the business.

·	Operating profit increased 26% and the margin was 14.3% compared to 12.6% in the prior-year period due to lower depreciation and amortization expense.

·	Small movements in the timing of revenues and expenses can impact margins in any given quarter for the Tax & Accounting business. Full-year margins are more reflective of the segment’s underlying performance.

Intellectual Property & Science

·	Revenues increased 3% driven by recurring revenue growth of 5% (79% of revenues) partially offset by a 4% decline in transactions-related revenues (21% of revenues).

·	EBITDA decreased 5% with a corresponding margin of 30.6% compared to 33.3% in the prior-year period. The EBITDA margin decline was primarily due to the dilutive impact of prior-year acquisitions and reinvestments in the business.

·	Operating profit decreased 11% with a corresponding margin of 21.8% compared to 25.4% in the prior-year period. The operating profit margin decline was a result of the same items that impacted the EBITDA margin.

·	Small movements in the timing of revenues and expenses can impact margins in any given quarter for the Intellectual Property & Science business. Full-year margins are more reflective of the segment’s underlying performance.

No similar items impacted results in the first nine months of 2014.

·	Revenues from ongoing businesses were $9.4 billion, a 1% increase before currency.

Adjusted EBITDA increased 2% and the corresponding margin was 26.8% versus 26.5% in the prior-year period. The increase was primarily due to lower charges compared to the prior-year period.

Excluding charges from both periods, adjusted EBITDA increased 1% and the related margin was 27.4% versus 27.6% in the prior-year period.

·	Underlying operating profit increased 4% and the corresponding margin was 17.4% versus 17.0% in the prior-year period. The increase was primarily due to the same factor that impacted adjusted EBITDA.

Free cash flow was $875 million versus $976 million in the prior-year period. The decrease was primarily due to a $75 million reduction in free cash flow from disposals compared to the prior-year period and higher severance costs. For the full year, the company continues to expect to achieve free cash flow between $1.3 billion and $1.5 billion.

Business Outlook (Before Currency)

Thomson Reuters today reaffirmed its full-year business outlook for 2014 which was previously communicated in February 2014. The company continues to expect:

·	revenues to be comparable to 2013;

·	adjusted EBITDA margin to range between 26% and 27%;

·	underlying operating profit margin to range between 17.0% and 18.0%; and

·	free cash flow to range between $1.3 billion and $1.5 billion in 2014.

The company’s 2014 outlook includes the impact of $120 million of previously announced charges expected to be incurred this year. The estimated aggregate amount of these charges is $395 million, $275 million of which was incurred in 2013. The free cash flow outlook for 2014 reflects the estimated cash impact of the charges incurred in 2013 and 2014 as well as the impact of the loss of free cash flow from disposals (approximately $375 million in aggregate).

The information in this section is forward-looking and should be read in conjunction with the section below entitled “Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements, Material Assumptions and Material Risks.”

Dividend and Share Repurchases

As previously announced in February 2014, Thomson Reuters board of directors approved a $0.02 per share annualized increase in the dividend to $1.32 per share. A quarterly dividend of $0.33 per share is payable on December 15, 2014 to common shareholders of record as of November 20, 2014.

In the third quarter of 2014, the company returned approximately $109 million to shareholders through the repurchase of approximately 2.9 million shares, of which 1.8 million were repurchased under its new $1.0 billion share buyback program announced in July 2014. The company has repurchased 28.4 million shares at a cost of $1.03 billion since it announced its first $1.0 billion share buyback program in October 2013.

(1)	Revenues from ongoing businesses are revenues from reportable segments and Corporate & Other (which includes Reuters News) less eliminations. Other Businesses (see note (2) below) are excluded.

(2)	Other Businesses are businesses that have been or are expected to be exited through sale or closure that did not qualify for discontinued operations classification.

(3)	Thomson Reuters defines adjusted EBITDA as underlying operating profit excluding the related depreciation and amortization of computer software. Adjusted EBITDA margin is adjusted EBITDA expressed as a percentage of revenues from ongoing businesses.

(4)	Underlying operating profit is operating profit from reportable segments and Corporate & Other (includes Reuters News). Underlying operating profit margin is the underlying operating profit expressed as a percentage of revenues from ongoing businesses.

(5)

Adjusted earnings and adjusted earnings per share include dividends declared on preference shares and amortization of the 2013 tax charges associated with the consolidation of technology and content assets but exclude the pre-tax impacts of amortization of other identifiable intangible assets as well as the post-tax impacts of fair value adjustments, other operating (gains) and losses, certain impairment charges, the results of Other Businesses (see note (2) above), other finance (income) costs, Thomson Reuters share of post-tax (earnings) losses in equity method investments, discontinued operations and other items affecting comparability. Adjusted earnings per share is calculated using diluted weighted-average shares and does not represent actual earnings or loss per share attributable to shareholders.

(6)

Adjustment to reflect income taxes based on estimated full-year effective tax rate. Reported earnings or loss for interim periods reflect income taxes based on the estimated effective tax rates of each of the jurisdictions in which Thomson Reuters operates. The adjustment reallocates estimated full-year income taxes between interim periods, but has no effect on full-year income taxes.

(7)	Reflects amortization of the 2013 tax charges associated with the consolidation of the ownership and management of technology and content assets. For the non-IFRS measure, the majority of the charges are amortized over seven years, the period over which the tax is expected to be paid.

(8)	Free cash flow is net cash provided by operating activities less capital expenditures, other investing activities and dividends paid on the company’s preference shares. Other Businesses (see note (2) above) are also removed to arrive at free cash flow from ongoing businesses.
