D&B Announces First Quarter 2012 Results; Revises Revenue and Free Cash Flow Full Year Outlook

 

   

Diluted EPS Before Non-Core Gains and Charges Up 5% From the Prior Year Similar Period; GAAP Diluted EPS Up 32%;

 

   

Core Revenue Up 1% Both Before and After the Effect of Foreign Exchange;

 

   

Total Revenue on a GAAP Basis Flat Both Before and After the Effect of Foreign Exchange;

 

   

Announces the Shut Down of Shanghai Roadway D&B Marketing Services Co. Ltd.

Short Hills, NJ – May 7, 2012 - D&B (NYSE: DNB), the world's leading source of commercial information and insight on businesses, today reported results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2012.

“Our first quarter results were below expectations, due to unexpected weakness in North America and partially offset by strong performance in International. The weakness in North America coupled with the situation in China has necessitated a reduction to our full year revenue and free cash flow guidance. Despite the disappointing top line performance, we are leveraging our flexible business model to ensure we deliver our prior operating margin and EPS commitments. That said, our technology transformation remains on track and once completed, it will become the foundation to drive sustainable top line growth,” stated Sara Mathew, D&B’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer.

Operating income before non-core gains and charges for the first quarter of 2012 was $106.0 million, up 3% from the prior year similar period, primarily due to reengineering savings. On a GAAP basis, operating income was $74.4 million, down 17% from the prior year similar period, primarily due to impairment charges related to the shut down of our Shanghai Roadway D&B Marketing Services Co. Ltd. in China.

The Company ended the first quarter of 2012 with $117.7 million of cash and cash equivalents and total gross debt of $842.8 million.

First Quarter 2012 Segment Results

As a reminder, during the first quarter of 2011, D&B realigned its geographic reporting segments into the following three classifications: i) North America, ii) Asia Pacific and iii) Europe & Other International Markets.

Simultaneously with the sale of the domestic portion of our Japanese operations to Tokyo Shoko Research, LTD. (“TSR”), our local joint venture partner, D&B entered in commercial agreements to provide TSR with global data for local Japanese customers and we became the exclusive distributor of TSR data to our Worldwide Network partners. While we will continue to manage our businesses through these three geographic segments, as of January 1, 2012, our Asia Pacific partnerships were reclassified out of our Europe and Other International Markets into our Asia Pacific segment (which now primarily consists of our operations in Australia, China, India and Asia Pacific Partnerships).

Schedule 7 depicts the effect this reclassification had on our segments for 2011, that is the basis for which we provide 2012 revenue guidance.

North America

Core revenue for the first quarter of 2012 was $285.5 million, down 1% both before and after the effect of foreign exchange, as compared to the prior year similar period.

North America core revenue results for the first quarter of 2012 reflect the following:

See attached Schedules 4, 5 and 6 for additional detail.

Operating income before non-core gains and charges for the first quarter of 2012 was $1.8 million, compared to a $1.8 million loss in the prior year similar period. The increase was primarily due to higher revenue and lower costs as a result of the divestiture of our market research business in China. On a GAAP basis, for the first quarter of 2012 we had an operating loss of $11.1 million, compared to a $1.8 million loss in the prior year similar period, due to impairment charges in the current year related to the shut down of our Shanghai Roadway D&B Marketing Services Co. Ltd. in China.

See attached Schedule 3 for additional detail.

           LOGO

 

See attached Schedules 4, 5 and 6 for additional detail.

Operating income for the first quarter of 2012 was $14.2 million, up 29% from the prior year similar period. The increase was primarily related to increased revenue and the timing of investment activity.

MaxCV

In February 2010, D&B announced a Strategic Technology Investment program aimed at strengthening its leading position in commercial data and improving its current technology platform to meet the emerging needs of customers. We refer to this program as “MaxCV.”

In the first quarter of 2012, the Company incurred $8.4 million of total pre-tax expenses (or $0.13 per diluted share) on MaxCV, which is included in the Non-Core Gains and Charges noted below, and $7.5 million of capital expenditures and additions to computer software and other intangibles related to MaxCV.

For the full year 2012, the Company anticipates spending approximately $60 million on MaxCV.

See attached Schedule 3 for additional detail.

Update on the Investigation Related to China Operations

On March 18, 2012, D&B announced we had temporarily suspended our Shanghai Roadway D&B Marketing Services Co. Ltd. (“Roadway”) operations in China, pending an investigation into allegations that certain data collection practices may have violated local Chinese consumer data privacy laws. In addition, we have been reviewing certain allegations that we may have violated the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act and certain other laws in our China operations. As previously reported, we are cooperating with the local Chinese investigation and have voluntarily reported this matter to the Securities and Exchange Commission and the United States Department of Justice and we are cooperating with both agencies in our investigation.

In connection with the ongoing investigation as well as the time and cost to resolve these issues, we subsequently decided to permanently cease the operations of

           LOGO

 

Roadway and we have begun the process of shutting down that business. However, we remain committed to our growth strategy in China and will continue to operate our other business-to-business Sales & Marketing and Risk Management businesses in that region.

D&B acquired Roadway’s operations in 2009 and for full year 2011, Roadway generated approximately $22 million in revenue and $2 million of operating income.

Schedule 7 depicts the effect the shut down had on our core revenue for 2011 and the first quarter of 2012, that is the basis for which we provide 2012 revenue guidance.

Non-Core Charges Related to Matter in China

During the first quarter of 2012, we incurred a $12.9 million impairment charge related to the shut down of Shanghai Roadway D&B Marketing Services Co. Ltd.

For the full year 2012, we currently expect to incur non-core charges related to the shut down of Shanghai Roadway D&B Marketing Services Co. Ltd., as well as legal, audit and other professional services associated with the investigations in China, that combined equal approximately $25 million. These charges do not include the above impairment charge or any potential regulatory fees or fines associated with our China operations.

           LOGO

 

Non-Core Gains and Charges

During the first quarters of 2012 and 2011, the Company recorded:

 

   

A net pre-tax, non-core charge of $25.5 million (including the $12.9 million impairment charge related to the shut down of Shanghai Roadway D&B Marketing Service Co. Ltd.) in the first quarter of 2012, and a net pre-tax, non-core charge of $17.1 million in the first quarter of 2011; and

 

 

   

A net after-tax, non-core charge of $1.8 million in the first quarter of 2012, and a net after-tax, non-core charge of $14.6 million in the first quarter of 2011.

See attached Schedule 3 for additional explanations and details of these charges.

D&B’s restructuring charges may be viewed as recurring as they are part of its Financial Flexibility initiatives. In addition to reporting GAAP results, the Company reports results before restructuring charges and other non-core gains and charges because they do not reflect the Company’s underlying business performance and they may have a disproportionate positive or negative impact on the results of its ongoing business operations. For additional information, see the section titled “Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” below.

Full Year 2012 Guidance

D&B today revised its financial guidance for the full year 2012:

 

   

Core revenue growth of 0% to 3%, before the effect of foreign exchange, compared with original growth of 3% to 5%, before the effect of foreign exchange;

 

   

Operating income growth of 4% to 7%, before non-core gains and charges;

 

   

Diluted EPS growth of 8% to 11%, before non-core gains and charges; and

 

   

Free cash flow of $275 million to $305 million, excluding the impact of legacy tax matters and any regulatory fees and fines associated with our China operations, and including MaxCV, compared with original guidance of Free cash flow of $310 million to $340 million, which excluded the impact of legacy tax matters but included MaxCV.

 

 

Page 9 of 13


 

           LOGO

 

The impact of MaxCV has been excluded from our operating income and diluted EPS guidance and included in our free cash flow guidance.

D&B does not provide guidance on a GAAP basis because D&B is unable to predict, with reasonable certainty, the future movement of foreign exchange rates or the future impact of non-core gains and charges, such as restructuring charges and legacy tax matters, which are a component of the most comparable financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. Non-core gains and charges are uncertain and will depend on several factors, including industry conditions, and could be material to D&B's results computed in accordance with GAAP.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

D&B reports non-GAAP financial measures in this press release and the schedules attached. See “Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – How We Manage Our Business” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ending December 31, 2011, filed February 29, 2012 with the SEC, for a discussion of how the Company defines these measures, why it uses them and why it believes they provide useful information to investors. Additionally, these measures are defined in Schedule 3 attached to this press release.

First Quarter 2012 Teleconference

As previously announced, D&B will review its first quarter financial results in a conference call with the investment community on Tuesday, May 8, 2012, at 8 a.m. ET. Live audio as well as a replay of the conference call, will be accessible on D&B's Investor Relations Web site at http://investor.dnb.com.

Forward-Looking and Cautionary Statements

This press release, including, in particular, the section titled “Full Year 2012 Guidance,” contains projections of future results and other forward-looking statements that involve a number of trends, risks and uncertainties, and are made pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.

The following important factors could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected in such forward-looking statements.

 

   

D&B relies significantly on third parties to support critical components of its business model in a continuous and high-quality manner, including third party data providers, strategic third party members in its D&B Worldwide Network, and third parties with whom it has significant outsourcing arrangements.

 

   

D&B’s ability to implement and derive the benefits of its Strategic Technology Investment program announced in February 2010 and to maintain sufficient investment in our technology infrastructure thereafter.

 

   

Any consequences of the investigation of our China operations and risks associated with potential violations of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act.

 

   

Demand for D&B's products is subject to intense competition, changes in customer preferences and economic conditions which impact customer behavior.

 

   

D&B’s solutions and brand image are dependent upon the integrity and security of its global database and the continued availability thereof through the Internet and by other means, as well as our ability to protect key assets, such as our data centers.

 

   

D&B’s ability to maintain the integrity of its brand and reputation, which it believes are key assets and competitive advantages.

 

   

D&B’s ability to renew large contracts, the related revenue recognition and the timing thereof, or a shift in product mix, may impact its results of operations from period to period.

 

 

Page 11 of 13


 

           LOGO

 

 

   

As a result of the macro-economic challenges currently affecting the global economy, D&B’s customers or vendors may experience cash flow problems. This may cause its customers to delay, cancel or significantly decrease their purchases from D&B and impact their ability to pay amounts owed to D&B. In addition, D&B’s vendors may substantially increase their prices without notice. Such behavior may adversely affect D&B’s earnings and cash flow. In addition, if economic conditions in the United States and other key markets deteriorate further or do not show improvement, D&B may experience material adverse impacts to its business, operating results and/or access to credit markets.

 

   

D&B’s results are subject to the effects of foreign economies, exchange rate fluctuations, legislative or regulatory requirements, such as the adoption of new or changes in accounting policies and practices, including pronouncements by the Financial Accounting Standards Board or other standard-setting bodies, and the implementation or modification of fees or taxes that it must pay to acquire, use, and/or redistribute data. Future laws or regulations with respect to the collection, compilation, use and/or publication of information and adverse publicity or litigation concerning the commercial use of such information, or changes in the rules governing the operation of the Internet could have material adverse effect on D&B’s business and financial results.

 

   

D&B’s ability to introduce new solutions or services having more breadth and depth of data which allow customers more flexible use of D&B data through web services and third party solutions, in a seamless way and without disruption to existing solutions, such as DNBi.

 

   

D&B’s ability to acquire and successfully integrate other complementary businesses, products and technologies into its existing business, without significant disruption to its existing business or to its financial results.

 

   

The continued adherence by third party members of the D&B Worldwide Network, or other third parties who license and sell under the D&B name, to D&B’s quality standards, its brand and communication standards and to the terms and conditions of its commercial services arrangements.

 

   

D&B's future success requires that it attract and retain qualified personnel, including members of its sales force and technology teams, in regions throughout the world.

 

   

The profitability of our segments outside of North America depends on our ability to identify and execute on various initiatives, such as the continued implementation of subscription plan pricing, such as DNBi, and successfully managing our D&B Worldwide Network, and our ability to identify and contend with various challenges present in foreign markets, such as local competition and the availability of public records at no cost, or the adoption of new laws or regulations governing the collection, compilation, use and/or publication of information, particularly in emerging markets.

 

 

Page 12 of 13


 

           LOGO

 

 

   

D&B’s ability to successfully implement its growth strategy requires that it successfully reduce its expense base through its Financial Flexibility initiatives, and reallocate certain of the expense-base reductions into initiatives that produce desired revenue growth.

 

   

D&B is involved in various legal proceedings, the outcomes of which are unknown and uncertain with respect to the impact on D&B's cash flow and profitability. See the Company's most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and notes to the financial statements included therewith, for a more detailed description of these matters.

 

   

D&B’s ability to repurchase shares is subject to market conditions, including trading volume in its stock, and its ability to repurchase shares in accordance with applicable securities laws.

 

   

D&B’s projection for free cash flow is dependent upon its ability to generate revenue, its collection processes, customer payment patterns, the timing and volume of stock option exercises and the amount and timing of payments related to the tax and other matters and legal proceedings in which it is involved, as referenced above and as more fully described in the Company's filings with the SEC, including its most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and notes to the financial statements included therewith.

For a more detailed discussion of the trends, risks and uncertainties that may affect D&B's operating and financial results and its ability to achieve the financial objectives discussed in this press release, readers should review the Company's filings with the SEC, including its most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q. Copies of the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K and Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q are available on its Web site at www.dnb.com and on the SEC's Web site at www.sec.gov. D&B cautions that the foregoing list of important factors is not complete and except as otherwise required by federal securities laws does not undertake any obligation to update any forward-looking statement.

The following defines the non-GAAP measures used to evaluate performance:

 

* Total revenue excluding the revenue of divested businesses is referred to as “core revenue.” Core revenue includes the revenue from acquired businesses from the date of acquisition

 

* Core revenue growth, excluding the effects of foreign exchange, is referred to as “core revenue growth before the effects of foreign exchange.” We also separately, from time to time, analyze core revenue growth before the effects of foreign exchange among two components, “organic core revenue growth” and “core revenue growth from acquisitions”

 

* Results (such as operating income, operating income growth, operating margin, net income, tax rate and diluted earnings per share) exclude Restructuring Charges (whether recurring or non-recurring) and certain other items that we consider do not reflect our underlying business performance. We refer to these Restructuring Charges and other items as “non-core gains and (charges)”

 

* Net cash provided by operating activities minus capital expenditures and additions to computer software and other intangibles is referred to as “free cash flow”

Notes:

 

1 We define Subscription and Non-Subscription revenue as follows:

 

   

Subscription revenue represents contracts that allow customers unlimited use within predefined ranges, subject to certain conditions. In these instances, we recognize revenue ratably over the term of the contract, which is generally one year.

 

   

Non-Subscription revenue represents all other revenue streams.

 

2 We define DNBi and Non-DNBi revenue as follows:

 

   

DNBi, is our interactive, customizable online application that offers our customers real time access to our most complete and up-to-date global DUNSRight information, comprehensive monitoring and portfolio analysis.

 

   

Non-DNBi revenue represents all other revenue streams.
