New York, N.Y. — Nasdaq, Inc. (Nasdaq: NDAQ) today reported strong financial results for the third quarter of 2016. Third quarter net revenues were $585 million, up $56 million or 11% from $529 million in the prior year period, driven primarily by a $58 million positive impact from acquisitions. Organic revenue growth in the non-trading segments4 in the third quarter of 2016 was offset by a contraction in trading revenues when compared to an especially volatile trading environment in the prior-year period.
“The third quarter’s strong financial results showcase how the complementary nature of Nasdaq’s business mix can deliver against a variety of macro backdrops. While our marketplaces were subject to lower volatility and industry volumes compared to the prior year period, the company’s non-trading segments expanded to new record levels,” said Bob Greifeld, CEO, Nasdaq.
Mr. Greifeld continued, “The Information Services, Technology Solutions, and Listing Services segments were especially strong in the third quarter, but more importantly they each represent areas where we have found attractive opportunities to invest and where our technology leadership can be leveraged effectively to benefit our clients and create new opportunities for growth.”
Operating expenses were $352 million in the third quarter of 2016, up $54 million from $298 million in the third quarter of 2015. The increase primarily reflects incremental expenses from the acquisitions of Nasdaq CXC, formerly Chi-X Canada (February 2016), Marketwired (February 2016), Boardvantage (May 2016), and ISE (June 2016).
Non-GAAP operating expenses were $317 million in the third quarter of 2016, up $41 million from $276 million in the third quarter of 2015. This increase primarily reflects $29 million in incremental operating expenses from the acquisitions closed in 2016 as well as $13 million due to organic growth.

| 2 | Represents revenues less transaction-based expenses. |
| 3 | Refer to our reconciliations of U.S. GAAP to non-GAAP net income, diluted earnings per share, operating income and operating expenses included in the attached schedules. |
| 4 | Represents revenues from our Information Services, Technology Solutions, and Listing Services segments. |
“During the third quarter, the company made significant progress integrating our recent acquisitions, moving the synergy achievement up to $23 million on a run rate basis, which contributed to meaningful accretion to our non-GAAP results,” said Michael Ptasznik, Chief Financial Officer and Executive Vice President, Nasdaq.
Mr. Ptasznik continued, “We also saw an attractive opportunity to return $55 million to shareholders through the share buyback program in the third quarter. I’m pleased to say that in addition to executing on several acquisition opportunities this year, the company has returned 54% of our non-GAAP net income year-to-date to shareholders through dividends and buybacks.”
Net income attributable to Nasdaq for the third quarter of 2016 was $131 million, or $0.77 per diluted share, compared with $138 million, or $0.80 per diluted share, in the prior year quarter. On a non-GAAP basis, net income attributable to Nasdaq for the third quarter of 2016 was $154 million, or $0.91 per diluted share, compared with $151 million, or $0.88 per diluted share, in the third quarter of 2015.
The company repurchased 800,938 shares for $55 million in the third quarter of 2016 at an average price of $68.19. As of September 30, 2016, there was $429 million remaining under the board authorized share repurchase program.
At September 30, 2016, the company had cash and cash equivalents of $257 million and total debt of $3,709 million, resulting in net debt of $3,452 million. This compares to net debt of $2,063 million at December 31, 2015.
BUSINESS HIGHLIGHTS
Market Services (36% of total net revenues) – Net revenues were $213 million in the third quarter of 2016, up $13 million when compared to the third quarter of 2015. The increase primarily reflects an increase in revenues from the ISE and Nasdaq CXC acquisitions, partially offset by declines in trading volumes as compared to multi-year high industry trading volumes experienced in the third quarter of 2015.
Equity Derivatives (11% of total net revenues) – Net equity derivative trading and clearing revenues were $67 million in the third quarter of 2016, up $16 million compared to the third quarter of 2015. The increase is primarily due to the inclusion of revenues from our acquisition of ISE in June 2016 and higher market share at The NASDAQ Options Market and Nasdaq PHLX, partially offset by lower industry trading volumes.
Cash Equities (10% of total net revenues) – Net cash equity trading revenues were $59 million in the third quarter of 2016, down $8 million compared to the third quarter of 2015. This decrease reflects lower matched market share, lower industry trading volumes and lower U.S. average net capture, partially offset by the inclusion of net revenues associated with the acquisition of Nasdaq CXC.
Fixed Income and Commodities Trading and Clearing1 (3% of total net revenues) – Net fixed income and commodities trading and clearing (FICC) revenues were $18 million in the third quarter of 2016, down $5 million from the third quarter of 2015, due to declines in commodities and U.S. fixed income revenues and the impact of trading incentives on Nasdaq Futures (NFX) revenues.
Trade Management Services (12% of total net revenues) – Trade management services revenues were $69 million in the third quarter of 2016, up $10 million compared to the third quarter of 2015, due to the inclusion of revenue from the acquisition of ISE and an increase in customer demand for network connectivity.
| 1 | Our FICC business was formerly referred to as fixed income, currency and commodities trading and clearing. |
Information Services (23% of total net revenues) – Revenues were $137 million in the third quarter of 2016, up $5 million from the third quarter of 2015.
Data Products (18% of total net revenues) – Data products revenues were $109 million in the third quarter of 2016, up $6 million compared to the third quarter of 2015 primarily due to growth in proprietary data products revenues, the inclusion of revenues from the acquisitions of ISE and Nasdaq CXC, as well as higher audit collections.
Index Licensing and Services (5% of total net revenues) – Index licensing and services revenues were $28 million in the third quarter of 2016, down $1 million from the third quarter of 2015. The revenue decline was primarily due to a decrease in the value of underlying assets associated with non-ETP Nasdaq-licensed products and lower fees associated with derivative products licensing Nasdaq indices, due to lower volumes.
Technology Solutions (29% of total net revenues) – Revenues were $167 million in the third quarter of 2016, up $36 million from the third quarter of 2015. The increase primarily reflects the inclusion of revenues from the acquisitions of Marketwired and Boardvantage, as well as $13 million in organic revenue growth in our Market Technology business.
Corporate Solutions (16% of total net revenues) – Corporate solutions revenues were $94 million in the third quarter of 2016, up $22 million from the third quarter of 2015. The increase was due to the inclusion of revenues from the Marketwired and Boardvantage acquisitions.
Market Technology (13% of total net revenues) – Market technology revenues were $73 million in the third quarter of 2016, up $14 million from the third quarter of 2015. The increase was driven primarily by growth in revenues from software licensing and support as well as surveillance products.
Listing Services (12% of total net revenues) – Revenues were $68 million in the third quarter of 2016, up $2 million compared to the third quarter of 2015 primarily due to higher revenues in the Nordics due to new company listings.

NON-GAAP INFORMATION
In addition to disclosing results determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP, Nasdaq also discloses certain non-GAAP results of operations, including, but not limited to, net income attributable to Nasdaq, diluted earnings per share, operating income, and operating expenses, that include certain adjustments or exclude certain charges and gains that are described in the reconciliation table of U.S. GAAP to non-GAAP information provided at the end of this release. Management uses this non-GAAP information internally, along with U.S. GAAP information, in evaluating our performance and in making financial and operational decisions. We believe our presentation of these measures provides investors with greater transparency and supplemental data relating to our financial condition and results of operations. In addition, we believe the presentation of these measures is useful to investors for period-to-period comparisons of results as the items described below do not reflect ongoing operating performance.
These measures are not in accordance with, or an alternative to, U.S. GAAP, and may be different from non-GAAP measures used by other companies. Investors should not rely on any single financial measure when evaluating our business. We recommend investors review the U.S. GAAP financial measures included in this earnings release. When viewed in conjunction with our U.S. GAAP results and the accompanying reconciliations, we believe these non-GAAP measures provide greater transparency and a more complete understanding of factors affecting our business than U.S. GAAP measures alone.
We understand that analysts and investors regularly rely on non-GAAP financial measures, such as non-GAAP net income attributable to Nasdaq, non-GAAP diluted earnings per share, non-GAAP operating income and non-GAAP operating expenses to assess operating performance. We use these measures because they highlight trends more clearly in our business that may not otherwise be apparent when relying solely on U.S. GAAP financial measures, since these measures eliminate from our results specific financial items, such as those described below, that have less bearing on our ongoing operating performance.
Amortization expense of acquired intangible assets: We amortize intangible assets acquired in connection with various acquisitions. Intangible asset amortization expense can vary from period to period due to episodic acquisitions completed, rather than from our ongoing business operations. As such, if intangible asset amortization is included in performance measures, it is more difficult to assess the day-to-day operating performance of the businesses, the relative operating performance of the businesses between periods and the earnings power of Nasdaq. Management does not consider intangible asset amortization expense for the purpose of evaluating the performance of our business or its managers or when making decisions to allocate resources. Therefore, we believe performance measures excluding intangible asset amortization expense provide investors with a more useful representation of our businesses’ ongoing activity in each period.
Restructuring charges: Restructuring charges are associated with our 2015 restructuring plan to improve performance, cut costs and reduce spending and are primarily related to (i) the rebranding of our company name from The NASDAQ OMX Group, Inc. to Nasdaq, Inc., (ii) severance and other termination benefits, (iii) costs to vacate duplicate facilities, and (iv) asset impairment charges. We exclude these restructuring costs because these costs do not reflect future operating expenses and do not contribute to a meaningful evaluation of Nasdaq’s ongoing operating performance or a comparison of Nasdaq’s performance between periods.
Merger and strategic initiatives expense: We have pursued various strategic initiatives and completed a number of acquisitions in recent years which have resulted in expenses which would not have otherwise been incurred. These expenses include integration costs, as well as legal, due diligence and other third party transaction costs. The frequency and the amount of such expenses vary significantly based on the size, timing and complexity of the transaction. Accordingly, we exclude these costs for purposes of calculating non-GAAP measures which provide a more meaningful analysis of Nasdaq’s ongoing operating performance or comparisons of Nasdaq’s performance between periods.
Other significant items: We have excluded certain other charges or gains that are the result of other non-comparable events to measure operating performance. For the three months ended June 30, 2016, other significant items include tax expense due to an unfavorable tax ruling received during the three months ended June 30, 2016, the impact of which related to prior periods, and the release of a sublease loss reserve due to the early exit of a facility. For the three months ended September 30, 2015, other significant items include an insurance recovery for litigation arising from the Facebook IPO in May 2012. We believe the exclusion of such amounts, which arise outside of the normal course of business, allow management and investors to better understand the financial results of Nasdaq.
Foreign exchange impact on revenue: In countries with currencies other than the U.S. dollar, revenues and expenses are translated using monthly average exchange rates. Certain discussions in this release isolate the impact of year-over-year foreign currency fluctuations to better measure the comparability of operating results between periods. Operating results excluding the impact of foreign currency fluctuations are calculated by translating the current period’s results by the prior period’s exchange rates.

| (1) | Refer to the non-GAAP information section of the earnings release for further discussion of why we consider amortization expense of acquired intangible assets to be a non-GAAP adjustment. |
| (2) | For the three months ended September 30, 2016 and June 30, 2016, merger and strategic initiatives expense primarily related to our acquisition of ISE. For the three months ended September 30, 2015, merger and strategic initiatives expense primarily related to certain strategic initiatives and our acquisition of Dorsey, Wright & Associates, LLC. Refer to the non-GAAP information section of the earnings release for further discussion on why we consider merger and strategic initiatives expense to be a non-GAAP adjustment. |
| (3) | During the first quarter of 2015, we performed a comprehensive review of our processes, businesses and systems in a company-wide effort to improve performance, cut costs, and reduce spending. In June 2016, we completed our 2015 restructuring plan. For the three months ended June 30, 2016, restructuring charges primarily related to severance costs, asset impairment charges and other charges. For the three months ended September 30, 2015, restructuring charges primarily related to facility-related costs associated with the consolidation of leased facilities, severance costs and other charges. Restructuring charges are recorded on restructuring plans that have been committed to by management and are, in part, based upon management’s best estimates of future events. Changes to the estimates may require future adjustments to the restructuring liabilities. Refer to the non-GAAP information section of the earnings release for further discussion of why we consider restructuring charges to be a non-GAAP adjustment. |
| (4) | The credit of $2 million pertains to the release of a previously recorded sublease loss reserve due to the early exit of a facility. |
| (5) | In March 2015, we established a loss reserve of $31 million for litigation arising from the Facebook IPO in May 2012, which was recorded in general, administrative and other expense. The reserve was intended to cover the estimated amount of a settlement of class-action litigation initiated on behalf of investors in Facebook common stock on the date of its IPO. The reserve also covered the cost of re-opening Nasdaq’s voluntary accommodation program to allow any Nasdaq member that did not file for compensation in 2013 to submit a claim during the second quarter of 2015, subject to the conditions and limitations that were applicable to claims filed in 2013. The re-opened accommodation program is now closed. The insurance recovery recognized during the three months ended September 30, 2015 primarily represented amounts reimbursed by applicable insurance coverage. |
| (6) | Includes the tax impact of each non-GAAP adjustment. In addition, in June 2016 we recorded a $27 million tax expense due to an unfavorable tax ruling received during the three months ended June 30, 2016, the impact of which related to prior periods. |
