NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

(Amounts in thousands, except for share and per share data, unless otherwise stated)

1. Organization:

Verisk Analytics, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries (“Verisk” or the “Company”) enable risk-bearing businesses to better understand and manage their risks. The Company provides its customers proprietary data that, combined with analytic methods, create embedded decision support solutions. The Company is one of the largest aggregators and providers of data pertaining to property and casualty (“P&C”) insurance risks in the United States of America (“U.S.”). The Company offers solutions for detecting fraud in the U.S. P&C insurance, financial and healthcare industries and sophisticated methods to predict and quantify loss in diverse contexts ranging from natural catastrophes to supply chain to health insurance. The Company provides solutions, including data, statistical models or tailored analytics, all designed to allow clients to make more logical decisions.

Verisk was established to serve as the parent holding company of Insurance Services Office, Inc. (“ISO”) upon completion of the initial public offering ("IPO"), which occurred on October 9, 2009. ISO was formed in 1971 as an advisory and rating organization for the P&C insurance industry to provide statistical and actuarial services, to develop insurance programs and to assist insurance companies in meeting state regulatory requirements. For over the past decade, the Company has broadened its data assets, entered new markets, placed a greater emphasis on analytics, and pursued strategic acquisitions. Verisk trades under the ticker symbol “VRSK” on the NASDAQ Global Select Market.

2. Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies:

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the basis of accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. (“U.S. GAAP”). The preparation of financial statements in conformity with these accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Significant estimates include acquisition purchase price allocations, the fair value of goodwill, the realization of deferred tax assets, fair value of stock based compensation, assets and liabilities for pension and postretirement benefits, and the estimate for the allowance for doubtful accounts. Actual results may ultimately differ from those estimates. The results of operations for the Company's mortgage services business are reported as a discontinued operation for the periods presented herein (See Note 6).

The condensed consolidated financial statements as of March 31, 2014 and for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, in the opinion of management, include all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring accruals, to present fairly the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows. The operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2014 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. The condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes for the three months ended March 31, 2014 have been prepared on the same basis as and should be read in conjunction with the annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The Company believes the disclosures made are adequate to keep the information presented from being misleading.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In March 2013, the Financial Accounting Standard Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2013-05, Parent’s Accounting for the Cumulative Translation Adjustment upon Derecognition of Certain Subsidiaries or Groups of Assets within a Foreign Entity or of an Investment in a Foreign Entity (“ASU No. 2013-05”). Under ASU No. 2013-05, an entity is required to release any related cumulative translation adjustment into net income upon cessation to have a controlling financial interest in a subsidiary or group of assets within a foreign entity. ASU 2013-05 is effective prospectively for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2013. ASU No. 2013-05 was adopted by the Company on January 1, 2014. The adoption of ASU No. 2013-05 did not have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

In July 2013, the FASB issued ASU No. 2013-11, Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit When a Net Operating Loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss, or a Tax Credit Carryforward Exists (“ASU No. 2013-11”).  Under ASU No. 2013-11, an unrecognized tax benefit should be presented as a reduction to a deferred tax asset for a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward, with the exception that these unrecognized tax benefits are not available at the reporting date to settle any additional income taxes that would result from the disallowance of a tax position or the tax law.  An additional exception applies when the tax law does not require the entity to use, and the entity does not intend to use, the deferred tax asset for such purpose, then the unrecognized tax benefit should be presented as a liability and should not be combined with deferred

6

tax assets.  ASU No. 2013-11 is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2013. The Company adopted the standard on January 1, 2014.  The adoption of ASU No. 2013-11 did not have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

In April 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-08, Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity (“ASU No. 2014-08”).  Under ASU No. 2014-08, a disposal of a component of an entity or a group of components of an entity is required to be reported in discontinued operations if the disposal represents a strategic shift that has (or will have) a major effect on an entity’s operations and financial results.  The amendments in this ASU further require additional disclosures on discontinued operations in the financial statements.  ASU No. 2014-08 is effective prospectively for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2014.  Early adoption is permitted, but only for disposals (or classifications as held-for-sale) that have not been reported in the financial statements previously issued.  The Company has elected not to early adopt and will assess the impact of this standard when applicable circumstances are required to be reported in discontinued operations under the existing guidance and this ASU.

3. Investments:

Available-for-sale securities consisted of the following:

	Adjusted Cost		Gross Unrealized Loss			Fair Value
March 31, 2014
Registered investment companies	$	4,077	$	(159	)	$	3,918
December 31, 2013
Registered investment companies	$	4,098	$	(187	)	$	3,911

In addition to the available-for-sale securities above, the Company has equity investments in non-public companies in which the Company acquired non-controlling interests and for which no readily determinable market value exists. These securities were accounted for under the cost method in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 323-10-25, The Equity Method of Accounting for Investments in Common Stock. At March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the carrying value of such securities was $8,487 and $3,602, respectively, and has been included in “Other assets” in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets.

4. Fair Value Measurements:

Certain assets and liabilities of the Company are reported at fair value in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. Such assets and liabilities include amounts for both financial and non-financial instruments. To increase consistency and comparability of assets and liabilities recorded at fair value, ASC 820-10, Fair Value Measurements (“ASC 820-10”), established a three-level fair value hierarchy to prioritize the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. ASC 820-10 requires disclosures detailing the extent to which companies measure assets and liabilities at fair value, the methods and assumptions used to measure fair value and the effect of fair value measurements on earnings. In accordance with ASC 820-10, the Company applied the following fair value hierarchy:

Level 1 -	Assets or liabilities for which the identical item is traded on an active exchange, such as publicly-traded    instruments.
Level 2 -	Assets and liabilities valued based on observable market data for similar instruments.
Level 3 -	Assets or liabilities for which significant valuation assumptions are not readily observable in the market;    instruments valued based on the best available data, some of which are internally-developed, and considers    risk premiums that market participants would require.

The fair values of cash and cash equivalents (other than money-market funds, which are recorded on a reported net asset value basis disclosed below), accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, and short-term debt expected to be refinanced approximate their carrying amounts because of the short-term nature of these instruments. 

The following table summarizes fair value measurements by level for cash equivalents and registered investment companies that were measured at fair value on a recurring basis:

	Total		Quoted Prices in Active Markets for Identical Assets (Level 1)		Significant Other Observable Inputs (Level 2)
March 31, 2014
Cash equivalents - money-market funds	$	2,115	$	—	$	2,115
Registered investment companies (1)	$	3,918	$	3,918	$	—
December 31, 2013
Cash equivalents - money-market funds	$	889	$	—	$	889
Registered investment companies (1)	$	3,911	$	3,911	$	—

______________________

(1) Registered investment companies are classified as available-for-sale securities and are valued using quoted prices in active markets multiplied by the number of shares owned.

The Company has not elected to carry its long-term debt at fair value. The carrying value of the long-term debt represents amortized cost. The Company assesses the fair value of its long-term debt based on quoted market prices if available, and if not, an estimate of interest rates available to the Company for debt with similar features, the Company’s current credit rating and spreads applicable to the Company. The fair value of the long-term debt would be a Level 2 liability if the long-term debt was measured at fair value on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

5. Acquisitions:

In the first quarter of 2014, the Company acquired the net assets of Inovatus, LLC for approximately $4,000. The assets primarily consisted of software and are embedded in our existing models focusing on reducing fraud and premium leakage for personal auto insurance carriers. The technology is included in the Company's Decision Analytics segment as part of its solutions to leverage data and analytics to help insurance companies improve results.

2014 Pending Acquisition

In January 2014, the Company entered into an agreement to acquire 100 percent of the stock of Eagleview Technology Corporation (“EVT”), the parent company of Pictometry International Corp. and Eagle View Technologies, Inc., for a net cash purchase price of $650,000, which will be funded by the Company's operating cash and borrowings from the senior unsecured Syndicated Revolving Credit Facility (the "Credit Facility"). EVT is a provider of geo-referenced aerial image capture and visual-centric data analytics and solutions to insurers, contractors, government, and commercial customers in the United States. This acquisition is expected to advance the Company's position in the imagery analytics market, adding new municipal and commercial customers. The transaction is expected to support the aerial imagery solution development in the Company's Decision Analytics segment. The purchase price to be paid will be adjusted subsequent to close to reflect final balances of certain working capital accounts and other closing adjustments. The closing of the transaction is subject to the completion of customary closing conditions, including receipt of regulatory and shareholder approvals. On March 28, 2014, the Company received a request for additional information (the “Second Request”) from the Federal Trade Commission under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976.  The Company is responding to the Second Request and presently expects the transaction to close during the third quarter of 2014. 

Acquisition Escrows

Pursuant to the related acquisition agreements, the Company has funded various escrow accounts to satisfy pre-acquisition indemnity and tax claims arising subsequent to the acquisition dates, as well as a portion of the contingent payments. At March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the current portion of the escrows amounted to $27,504 and $27,967, respectively, and there was no noncurrent portion amount of the escrow in either period. The current portion of the escrows has been included in “Other current assets” in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets.

6. Discontinued Operations:

On March 11, 2014, the Company sold 100 percent of the stock of the Company’s mortgage services business, Interthinx, which was a guarantor subsidiary, in exchange for a purchase price of $155,000. The cash received will be adjusted subsequent to close to reflect final balances of certain working capital accounts and other closing adjustments. The Company recognized a gain, net of tax, of $31,117 for this sale. Results of operations for the mortgage services business are reported as a discontinued operation for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and for all prior periods presented.

The mortgage services business meets the criteria for being reported as a discontinued operation and has been segregated from continuing operations. The following table summarizes the results from the discontinued operation for the three months ended March 31:

	2014			2013
Revenues from discontinued operations	$	11,512		$	26,626
Income from discontinued operations before income taxes (including gain on sale of $65,410 in 2014)	$	54,482		$	1,901
Provision for income taxes (including tax on sale of $27,067 in 2014)		(23,365	)		(835	)
Income from discontinued operations, net of tax	$	31,117		$	1,066

7. Goodwill and Intangible Assets:

The following is a summary of the change in goodwill from December 31, 2013 through March 31, 2014, both in total and as allocated to the Company’s operating segments:

	Risk Assessment		Decision Analytics			Total
Goodwill at December 31, 2013 (1)	$	55,555	$	1,126,126		$	1,181,681
Current year acquisitions		—		2,995			2,995
Sale of discontinued operations		—		(302	)		(302	)
Goodwill at March 31, 2014 (1)	$	55,555	$	1,128,819		$	1,184,374

______________________

(1) These balances are net of accumulated impairment charges of $3,244 that occurred prior to December 31, 2011.

Goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives are subject to impairment testing annually as of June 30, or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be fully recoverable. Goodwill impairment testing compares the carrying value of each reporting unit to its fair value. If the fair value of the reporting unit exceeds the carrying value of the net assets, including goodwill assigned to that reporting unit, goodwill is not impaired. If the carrying value of the reporting unit’s net assets including goodwill exceeds the fair value of the reporting unit, then the Company will determine the implied fair value of the reporting unit’s goodwill. If the carrying value of a reporting unit’s goodwill exceeds its implied fair value, then an impairment loss is recorded for the difference between the carrying amount and the implied fair value of goodwill. The Company completed the required annual impairment test as of June 30, 2013, which resulted in no impairment of goodwill. There were no goodwill impairment indicators after the date of the last annual impairment test.

The Company’s intangible assets and related accumulated amortization consisted of the following:

	Weighted Average Useful Life	Cost		Accumulated Amortization			Net
March 31, 2014
Technology-based	8 years	$	296,502	$	(184,350	)	$	112,152

Total intangible assets		$	762,609	$	(327,641	)	$	434,968
December 31, 2013
Technology-based	8 years	$	294,940	$	(180,581	)	$	114,359
Marketing-related	5 years		71,047		(44,274	)		26,773
Contract-based	6 years		6,555		(6,555	)		—

Total intangible assets		$	761,047	$	(313,429	)	$	447,618

Amortization expense related to intangible assets for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013 was $14,212 and $17,052, respectively. Estimated amortization expense in future periods through 2019 and thereafter for intangible assets subject to amortization is as follows:

Year	Amount
2014	$	42,562
2015		50,870
2016		49,040
2017		48,136
2018		47,390
2019 and thereafter		196,970
	$	434,968

8. Income Taxes:

The Company’s effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2014 was 35.7%, compared to the effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2013 of 36.6%. The effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2014 is lower than the March 31, 2013 effective tax rate primarily due to favorable state legislative changes. The difference between statutory tax rates and the Company’s effective tax rate is primarily attributable to state taxes and nondeductible share appreciation from the ISO 401(k) Savings and Employee Stock Ownership Plan (“KSOP”).

As of March 31, 2014, the Company had a $975,000 committed Credit Facility with Bank of America N.A., JPMorgan Chase Bank N.A., and a syndicate of banks. Borrowings may be used for general corporate purposes, including working capital needs and capital expenditures, acquisitions and the share repurchase program (the “Repurchase Program”). As of March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the Company had no outstanding borrowings under the Credit Facility.

10. Stockholders’ Equity:

The Company has 1,200,000,000 shares of authorized Class A common stock. The common shares have rights to any dividend declared by the board of directors, subject to any preferential or other rights of any outstanding preferred stock, and voting rights to elect all twelve members of the board of directors.

Share Repurchase Program

The Company has authorized repurchases of up to $1,200,000 of its common stock through its Repurchase Program. Since the introduction of share repurchase as a feature of the Company's capital management strategies in 2010, the Company has repurchased shares with an aggregate value of $1,123,475. As of March 31, 2014, the Company had $76,525 available to repurchase shares. The Company has no obligation to repurchase stock under this program and intends to use this authorization as a means of offsetting dilution from the issuance of shares under the KSOP, the Verisk 2013 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2013 Incentive Plan”), the Verisk 2009 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2009 Incentive Plan”), and the ISO 1996 Incentive Plan (the “1996 Incentive Plan”), while providing flexibility to repurchase additional shares if warranted. This authorization has no expiration date and may be increased, reduced, suspended, or terminated at any time. Repurchased shares will be recorded as treasury stock and will be available for future issuance as part of the Repurchase Program.

During the three months ended March 31, 2014, the Company repurchased 1,399,349 shares of common stock as part of the Repurchase Program at a weighted average price of $63.41 per share. The Company utilized cash from operations and the proceeds from its senior notes to fund these repurchases. As treasury stock purchases are recorded based on trade date, the Company has included $3,605 in “Accounts payable and accrued liabilities” in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets for those purchases that have not settled as of March 31, 2014.

12

Treasury Stock

As of March 31, 2014, the Company’s treasury stock consisted of 377,471,924 shares of Class A common stock. During the three months ended March 31, 2014, the Company reissued 472,536 shares of Class A common stock from the treasury shares at a weighted average price of $5.06 per share.

Earnings Per Share (“EPS”)

Basic EPS is computed by dividing income from continuing operations, income from discontinued operations and net income available to common stockholders, respectively, by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. The computation of diluted EPS is similar to the computation of basic EPS except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding, using the treasury stock method, if the dilutive potential common shares, including stock options, nonvested restricted stock, and nonvested restricted stock units, had been issued.

The following is a reconciliation of the numerators and denominators of the basic and diluted EPS computations for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013:

	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2014		2013
Numerator used in basic and diluted EPS:
Income from continuing operations	$	84,441	$	79,445
Income from discontinued operations, net of tax of $23,365 and $835, respectively (Note 6)		31,117		1,066
Net income	$	115,558	$	80,511
Denominator:
Weighted average number of common shares used in basic EPS		166,981,982		168,078,589
Effect of dilutive shares:
Potential common shares issuable from stock options and stock awards		3,439,507		4,682,052
Weighted average number of common shares and dilutive potential common shares used in diluted EPS		170,421,489		172,760,641
Basic net income per share:
Income from continuing operations	$	0.50	$	0.47
Income from discontinued operations		0.19		0.01
Basic net income per share	$	0.69	$	0.48
Diluted net income per share:
Income from continuing operations	$	0.50	$	0.46
Income from discontinued operations		0.18		0.01
Diluted net income per share	$	0.68	$	0.47

The potential shares of common stock that were excluded from diluted EPS were 761,848 and 34,062 for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively, because the effect of including these potential shares was anti-dilutive.

11. Equity Compensation Plans:

All of the Company’s outstanding stock options and restricted stock are covered under the 2013 Incentive Plan, 2009 Incentive Plan or the 1996 Incentive Plan. Awards under the 2013 Incentive Plan may include one or more of the following types: (i) stock options (both nonqualified and incentive stock options), (ii) stock appreciation rights, (iii) restricted stock, (iv) restricted stock units, (v) performance awards (vi) other share based awards, and (vii) cash. Employees, directors and consultants are eligible for awards under the 2013 Incentive Plan. The Company issued common stock under these plans from the Company’s treasury shares. On May 15, 2013, the Company’s shareholders approved the 2013 Incentive Plan. There are 15,700,000 shares of common stock available for issuance under the 2013 Incentive Plan. Shares subject to awards granted subsequent to March 15, 2013, whether under the 2013 Incentive Plan or the 2009 Incentive Plan, with certain exceptions, will reduce the number of shares available for issuance under the 2013 Incentive Plan. As of March 31, 2014, there were 14,372,174 shares of common stock reserved and available for future issuance under the 2013 Incentive Plan. Cash received from stock option exercises for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013 was $7,804 and $12,455, respectively.

On April 1, 2014, the Company granted 1,144,934 nonqualified stock options and 227,794 shares of restricted stock to key employees. The nonqualified stock options have an exercise price equal to the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the grant date, with a ten-year contractual term and a service vesting period of four years. The fair value of the restricted stock is determined using the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the grant date and has a service vesting period of four years. The Company recognizes the expense of the restricted stock ratably over the vesting period. The restricted stock is not assignable or transferable until it becomes vested.

The expected term for the stock options granted was estimated based on studies of historical experience and projected exercise behavior. The risk-free interest rate is based on the yield of U.S. Treasury zero coupon securities with a maturity equal to the expected term of the equity award. The volatility factor for stock options granted prior to 2014 was based on the average volatility of the Company’s peers, calculated using historical daily closing prices over the most recent period that is commensurate with the expected term of the stock option award. The expected dividend yield was based on the Company’s expected annual dividend rate on the date of grant.

A summary of the stock options outstanding as of December 31, 2013 and March 31, 2014 and changes during the interim period are presented below:

	Number of Options		Weighted Average Exercise Price		Aggregate Intrinsic Value
Outstanding at December 31, 2013	9,235,320		$	26.67	$	360,611
Exercised	(445,911	)	$	18.07	$	20,158
Cancelled or expired	(4,458	)	$	44.06
Outstanding at March 31, 2014	8,784,951		$	27.10	$	288,664
Stock options exercisable at March 31, 2014	6,793,102		$	21.42	$	261,837
Stock options exercisable at December 31, 2013	7,169,089		$	20.98	$	320,766

Intrinsic value for stock options is calculated based on the exercise price of the underlying awards and the quoted price of Verisk common stock as of the reporting date. In accordance with ASC 718, Stock Compensation, excess tax benefit from exercised stock options and restricted stock lapsed is recorded as an increase to additional paid-in capital and a corresponding reduction in income taxes payable. This tax benefit is calculated as the excess of the intrinsic value of options exercised and restricted stock lapsed in excess of compensation recognized for financial reporting purposes. The amount of the tax benefit that has been realized, as a result of those excess tax benefits, is presented as a financing cash inflow within the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of cash flows. For the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, the Company recorded excess tax benefits of $7,006 and $16,706, respectively. The Company realized $0 and $36,128 of tax benefit within the Company’s quarterly tax payments through March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

The Company estimates expected forfeitures of equity awards at the date of grant and recognizes compensation expense only for those awards that the Company expects to vest. The forfeiture assumption is ultimately adjusted to the actual forfeiture rate. Changes in the forfeiture assumptions may impact the total amount of expense ultimately recognized over the requisite service period and may impact the timing of expense recognized over the requisite service period.

A summary of the status of the restricted stock awarded under the 2013 Incentive Plan as of December 31, 2013 and March 31, 2014 and changes during the interim period is presented below:

	Number of Shares		Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value Per Share
Outstanding at December 31, 2013	396,749		$	52.82
Vested	(17,955	)	$	36.96
Forfeited	(769	)	$	51.74
Outstanding at March 31, 2014	378,025		$	52.75

As of March 31, 2014, there was $33,410 of total unrecognized compensation costs, exclusive of the impact of vesting upon retirement eligibility, related to nonvested share-based compensation arrangements granted under the 2009 and 2013 Incentive Plans. That cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 2.38 years. As of March 31, 2014, there were 1,991,849 and 378,025 nonvested stock options and restricted stock, respectively, of which 1,524,383 and 273,084 are expected to vest. The total grant date fair value of options vested during the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013 was $3,415 and $4,530, respectively. The total grant date fair value of restricted stock vested during the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013 was $2,167 and $961, respectively.

The Company’s employee stock purchase plan (“ESPP”) commenced on October 1, 2012 and offers eligible employees the opportunity to authorize payroll deductions of up to 20.0% of their regular base salary and up to 50.0% of their short-term incentive compensation, both of which in total may not exceed $25 in any calendar year, to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock at a 5.0% discount of its fair market value at the time of purchase. In accordance with ASC 718, the ESPP is noncompensatory as the purchase discount is 5.0% or less from the fair market value, substantially all employees that meet limited employment qualifications may participate, and it incorporates no option features. During the three months ended March 31, 2014, the Company issued 8,670 shares of common stock at a weighted discounted price of $56.96.

12. Pension and Postretirement Benefits:

The Company maintained a frozen qualified defined benefit pension plan for certain of its employees through membership in the Pension Plan for Insurance Organizations (the “Pension Plan”), a multiple-employer trust. The Company has applied a cash balance formula to determine future benefits. Under the cash balance formula, each participant has an account, which is credited annually based on salary rates determined by years of service, as well as the interest earned on the previous year-end cash balance. The Company also has a frozen non-qualified supplemental cash balance plan (“SERP”) for certain employees. The SERP is funded from the general assets of the Company.

The Company also provides certain healthcare and life insurance benefits to certain qualifying active and retired employees. The Postretirement Health and Life Insurance Plan (the “Postretirement Plan”), which has been frozen, is contributory, requiring participants to pay a stated percentage of the premium for coverage.

The components of net periodic (benefit) cost for the three months ended March 31, are summarized below:

	Pension Plan and SERP						Postretirement Plan
	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2014			2013			2014			2013
Interest cost	$	4,813		$	4,427		$	163		$	150
Expected return on plan assets		(8,513	)		(7,597	)		(200	)		(212	)
Amortization of prior service credit		—			—			(36	)		(38	)
Amortization of net actuarial loss		152			1,289			176			150
Net periodic (benefit) cost	$	(3,548	)	$	(1,881	)	$	103		$	50
Employer contributions	$	195		$	100		$	—		$	—

The expected contributions to the Pension Plan, SERP and Postretirement Plan for the year ending December 31, 2014 are consistent with the amounts previously disclosed as of December 31, 2013.

13. Segment Reporting:

16

ASC 280-10, Disclosures About Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information (“ASC 280-10”), establishes standards for reporting information about operating segments. ASC 280-10 requires that a public business enterprise report financial and descriptive information about its reportable operating segments.

Operating segments are components of an enterprise for which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. The Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer is identified as the CODM as defined by ASC 280-10. To align with the internal management of the Company’s business operations based on service offerings, the Company is organized into the following two operating segments, which are also the Company’s reportable segments:

Decision Analytics: The Company develops solutions that its customers use to analyze the three key processes in managing risk: ‘prediction of loss’, ‘detection and prevention of fraud’ and ‘quantification of loss’. The Company’s combination of algorithms and analytic methods incorporates its proprietary data to generate solutions. In most cases, the Company’s customers integrate the solutions into their models, formulas or underwriting criteria in order to predict potential loss events, ranging from hurricanes and earthquakes to unanticipated healthcare claims. The Company develops catastrophe and extreme event models and offers solutions covering natural and man-made risks, including acts of terrorism. The Company also develops solutions that allow customers to quantify costs after loss events occur. Fraud solutions include data on claim histories, analysis of claims to find emerging patterns of fraud, and identification of suspicious claims in the insurance and healthcare sectors. The Company discloses revenue within this segment based on the industry vertical groupings of insurance, financial services, healthcare and specialized markets.

Risk Assessment: The Company is the leading provider of statistical, actuarial and underwriting data for the U.S. P&C insurance industry. The Company’s databases include cleansed and standardized records describing premiums and losses in insurance transactions, casualty and property risk attributes for commercial buildings and their occupants and fire suppression capabilities of municipalities. The Company uses this data to create policy language and proprietary risk classifications that are industry standards and to generate prospective loss cost estimates used to price insurance policies.

Discontinued Operations: On March 11, 2014, the Company sold its mortgage services business, Interthinx, which was included in the Decision Analytics segment. Results of operations for the mortgage services business are reported as a discontinued operation for the three months ended March 31, 2014, and for all prior periods presented. Refer to Note 6 for more information.

The two aforementioned operating segments represent the segments for which separate discrete financial information is available and upon which operating results are regularly evaluated by the CODM in order to assess performance and allocate resources. The Company uses EBITDA as the profitability measure for making decisions regarding ongoing operations. EBITDA is net income before interest expense, provision for income taxes, depreciation and amortization of fixed and intangible assets. EBITDA is the measure of operating results used to assess corporate performance and optimal utilization of debt and acquisitions. Operating expenses consist of direct and indirect costs principally related to personnel, facilities, software license fees, consulting, travel, and third-party information services. Indirect costs are generally allocated to the segments using fixed rates established by management based upon estimated expense contribution levels and other assumptions that management considers reasonable. The Company does not allocate interest expense and provision for income taxes, since these items are not considered in evaluating the segment’s overall operating performance. The CODM does not evaluate the financial performance of each segment based on assets. On a geographic basis, no individual country outside of the U.S. accounted for 1.0% or more of the Company’s consolidated revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2014 or 2013. No individual country outside of the U.S. accounted for 1.0% or more of total consolidated long-term assets as of March 31, 2014 or December 31, 2013.

14. Related Parties:

18

The Company considers its Class A stockholders that own more than 5.0% of the outstanding common stock to be related parties as defined within ASC 850, Related Party Disclosures. As of March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the Company had no related parties owning more than 5.0% of its common stock.

15. Commitments and Contingencies:

The Company is a party to legal proceedings with respect to a variety of matters in the ordinary course of business, including the matters described below. With respect to ongoing matters, the Company is unable, at the present time, to determine the ultimate resolution of or provide a reasonable estimate of the range of possible loss attributable to these matters or the impact they may have on the Company’s results of operations, financial position or cash flows. This is primarily because the matters are generally in early stages and discovery has either not commenced or been completed. Although the Company believes it has strong defenses and intends to vigorously defend these matters, the Company could in the future incur judgments or enter into settlements of claims that could have a material adverse effect on its results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

Intellicorp Records, Inc. Litigation and iiX Litigation

On April 20, 2012, the Company was served with a class action complaint filed in Alameda County Superior Court in California naming the Company’s subsidiary Intellicorp Records, Inc. (“Intellicorp”) titled Jane Roe v. Intellicorp Records, Inc. The complaint alleged violations of the Fair Credit Reporting Act (“FCRA”) and claimed that Intellicorp failed to implement reasonable procedures to assure maximum possible accuracy of the adverse information contained in the background reports, failed to maintain strict procedures to ensure that criminal record information provided to employers is complete and up to date, and failed to notify class members contemporaneously of the fact that criminal record information was being provided to their employers and prospective employers. Intellicorp removed the case to the United States District Court of the Northern District of California. The California Court later granted Intellicorp’s motion to transfer the case, which is now pending in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Ohio. On October 24, 2012 plaintiffs served their First Amended Complaint (the “Roe Complaint”) alleging a nationwide putative class action on behalf of all persons who were the subject of a Criminal SuperSearch or other “instant” consumer background report furnished to a third party by Intellicorp for employment purposes, and whose report contained any negative public record of criminal arrest, charge, or conviction without also disclosing the final disposition of the charges during the 5 years preceding the filing of this action through the date class certification is granted. The Roe Complaint seeks statutory damages for the class in an amount not less than one hundred dollars and not more than one thousand dollars per violation, punitive damages, costs and attorneys’ fees. On February 4, 2013, the Court granted plaintiffs’ motion to amend the Roe Complaint to eliminate the named plaintiff’s individual claim for compensatory damages. This amendment did not change the breadth or scope of the request for relief sought on behalf of the proposed class. Plaintiffs later amended their class definition in their motion for class certification to include only those consumers whose (1) Criminal SuperSearch returned results, but Single County search returned no result; (2) Criminal SuperSearch returned one or more criminal charges without a disposition, but the Single County search returned a disposition other than “conviction” or “guilty” and (3) Criminal SuperSearch returned a higher level of offense (felony or misdemeanor) for one or more criminal charges than the Single County search (misdemeanor or infraction.) This amendment reduces the size of the potential class, but does not alter the time period for which the plaintiffs seek to certify a class or the scope of the request for relief sought on behalf of the proposed class. Plaintiffs’ motion for class certification was fully submitted on March 18, 2013 and oral argument was heard by Judge Gwin on June 27, 2013.

On November 1, 2012, the Company was served with a complaint filed in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Ohio naming the Company’s subsidiary Intellicorp Records, Inc. titled Michael R. Thomas v. Intellicorp Records, Inc. On January 7, 2013 plaintiff served its First Amended Complaint (the “Thomas Complaint”) to add Mark A. Johnson (the plaintiff in the Johnson v. iiX matter described below) as a named plaintiff. The Thomas Complaint alleges a nationwide putative class action for violations of FCRA on behalf of “[a]ll natural persons residing in the United States (a) who were the subject of a report sold by Intellicorp to a third party, (b) that was furnished for an employment purpose, (c) that contained at least one public record of a criminal conviction or arrest, civil lien, bankruptcy or civil judgment, (d) within five years next preceding the filing of this action and during its pendency, and (e) to whom Intellicorp did not place in the United States mail postage-prepaid, on the day it furnished any part of the report, a written notice that it was furnishing the subject report and containing the name of the person that was to receive the report.” The Thomas Complaint proposes an alternative subclass as follows: “[a]ll natural persons residing in Ohio or Tennessee (a) who were the subject of a report sold by Intellicorp to a third party, (b) that was furnished for an employment purpose, (c) that contained at least one public record of a criminal conviction or arrest, civil lien, bankruptcy or civil judgment, (d) within five years next preceding the filing of this action and during its pendency, (e) when a mutual review of the record would reveal that the identity associated with the public record does not match the identity of the class member about whom the report was furnished, and (f) to whom Intellicorp did not place in the United States mail postage pre-paid, on the day it furnished any part of the report, a written notice that it was furnishing the subject report and containing the name of the person that was to receive the report.” Similar to the Roe action, the Thomas Complaint alleges that Intellicorp violated the FCRA, asserting that Intellicorp violated section 1681k(a)(1) of the FCRA because it failed to provide notice to the plaintiffs “at the time” the adverse public record

19

information was reported. The named plaintiffs also allege individual claims under section 1681e(b) claiming that Intellicorp failed to follow reasonable procedures to assure maximum possible accuracy in the preparation of the consumer report it furnished pertaining to plaintiffs. The Thomas Complaint seeks statutory damages for the class in an amount not less than one hundred dollars and not more than one thousand dollars per violation, punitive damages, costs and attorneys’ fees, as well as compensatory and punitive damages on behalf of the named plaintiffs.

On January 3, 2013, the Company received service of a complaint filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of Ohio naming the Company’s subsidiary Insurance Information Exchange (“iiX”) titled Mark A. Johnson v. Insurance Information Exchange, LLC (the “Johnson Complaint”). The Johnson Complaint alleges a nationwide putative class action on behalf of “[a]ll natural persons residing in the United States who were the subject of a consumer report prepared by iiX for employment purposes within five (5) years prior to the filing of this Complaint and to whom iiX did not provide notice of the fact that public record information which is likely to have an adverse effect upon the consumer’s ability to obtain employment, is being reported by iiX, together with the name and address of the person to whom such information is being reported at the time such public record information is reported to the user of such consumer report.” Similar to the Thomas matter, the Johnson Complaint alleges violations of section 1681k(a) of the FCRA claiming that iiX failed to notify customers contemporaneously that criminal record information was provided to a prospective employer and failed to maintain strict procedures to ensure that the information reported is complete and up to date. The Johnson Complaint seeks statutory damages for the class in an amount not less than one hundred dollars and not more than one thousand dollars per violation, punitive damages, costs and attorneys’ fees.

On October 18, 2013, the parties filed a Stipulation of Settlement resolving the Roe, Thomas and Johnson matters which Judge Gwin approved on October 29, 2013 subject to a hearing on Final Approval. The Stipulation of Settlement provides for a payment of $18,600 all of which is to be provided by insurance. Accordingly, if the Stipulation of Settlement is approved at the hearing on Final Approval, the settlement of these matters is not expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company.

Interthinx, Inc. Litigation

On May 13, 2013, the Company was served with a putative class action titled Celeste Shaw v. Interthinx, Inc., Verisk Analytics, Inc. and Jeffrey Moyer. The plaintiff is a current employee of the Company’s former subsidiary Interthinx, Inc. based in Colorado, who filed the class action in the United States District Court for the District of Colorado on behalf of all fraud detection employees who have worked for Interthinx for the last three years nationwide and who were classified as exempt employees. The class complaint claims that the fraud detection employees were misclassified as exempt employees and, as a result, were denied certain wages and benefits that would have been received if they were properly classified as non-exempt employees. It pleads three causes of action against defendants: (1) Collective Action under section 216(b) of the Fair Labor Standards Act for unpaid overtime (nationwide class); (2) A Fed. R. Civ. P. 23 class action under the Colorado Wage Act and Wage Order for unpaid overtime and (3) A Fed. R. Civ. P. 23 class action under Colorado Wage Act for unpaid commissions/nondiscretionary bonuses (Colorado class).

On July 2, 2013, the Company was served with a putative class action titled Shabnam Shelia Dehdashtian v. Interthinx, Inc. and Verisk Analytics, Inc. in the United States District Court for the Central District of California. The plaintiff, Shabnam Shelia Dehdashtian, a former mortgage auditor at the Company’s former subsidiary Interthinx, Inc. in California, filed the class action on behalf of all persons who have been employed by Interthinx as auditors, mortgage compliance underwriters and mortgage auditors nationwide at any time (i) within 3 years prior to the filing of this action until trial for the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) class and (ii) within 4 years prior to the filing of the initial complaint until trial for the California collective action. The class complaint claims that the defendants failed to pay overtime compensation, to provide rest and meal periods, waiting time penalties and to provide accurate wage statements to the plaintiffs as required by federal and California law. It pleads seven causes of action against defendants: (1) Failure to pay overtime compensation in violation of the FLSA for unpaid overtime (nationwide class); (2) Failure to pay overtime compensation in violation of Cal. Lab. Code sections 510, 1194 and 1198 and IWC Wage Order No. 4; (3) Failure to pay waiting time penalties in violation of Cal. Lab.

On October 14, 2013, the Company received notice of a claim titled Dejan Nagl v. Interthinx Services, Inc. filed in the California Labor and Workforce Development Agency. The claimant, Dejan Nagl, a former mortgage auditor at the Company’s former subsidiary Interthinx, Inc. in California, filed the claim on behalf of himself and all current and former individuals employed in California as auditors by Interthinx, Inc. for violations of the California Labor Code and Wage Order.

Insurance Services Office, Inc Litigation

In October 2013, the Company was served with a summons and complaint filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York in an action titled Laurence J. Skelly and Ellen Burke v. Insurance Services Office, Inc. and the Pension Plan for Insurance Organizations. The plaintiffs, former employees of our subsidiary Insurance Services Office, Inc., or ISO, bring the action on their own behalf as participants in the Pension Plan for Insurance Organizations and on the behalf of similarly situated participants of the pension plan and ask the court to declare that a certain amendment to the pension plan as of December 31, 2001, which terminated their right to calculate and define the value of their retirement benefit under the pension plan based on their compensation levels as of immediately prior to their “retirement” (the “Unlawful Amendment”), violated the anti-cutback provisions and equitable principles of ERISA. The First Amended Class Action Complaint (the “Amended Complaint”) alleges that (1) the Unlawful Amendment of the pension plan violated Section 502(a)(1)(B) of ERISA as well as the anti-cutback rules of ERISA Section 204(g) and Section 411(d)(6) of the Internal Revenue Code; (2) ISO’s failure to provide an ERISA 204(h) notice in a manner calculated to be understood by the average pension plan participant was a violation of Sections 204(h) and 102(a) of ERISA and (3) the Living Pension Right was a contract right under ERISA common law and that by terminating

21

that right through the Unlawful Amendment ISO violated plaintiffs’ common law contract rights under ERISA. The Amended Complaint seeks declaratory, equitable and injunctive relief enjoining the enforcement of the Unlawful Amendment and ordering the pension plan and ISO retroactive to the date of the Unlawful Amendment to recalculate the accrued benefits of all class members, indemnification from ISO to the pension plan for costs and contribution requirements related to voiding the Unlawful Amendment, bonuses to the class representatives, costs and attorney’s fees.

At this time, it is not possible to determine the ultimate resolution of, or estimate the liability related to, this matter.

On April 9, 2013, the Company's subsidiary ISO was served with a First Amended Petition and Request for Disclosure filed in the District Court of Dallas County, Texas in an action titled Sidah Garner v. Nationwide Mutual Insurance Company, Carfax, Inc., General and Import Motors, Porschea Nicole Kendall, Daniel Scott Hayward and Insurance Services Office, Inc. Thereafter, on June 5, 2013 and August 16, 2013 plaintiff served its Second Amended Petition and Third Amended Petition (“the Amended Petition”) on defendants. This action arises from a car accident on June 6, 2011 in which the plaintiff was critically injured. At the time of the accident the plaintiff was in the passenger seat of a 2004 Mazda, which the plaintiff alleges was previously involved in a total loss rollover collision on April 25, 2006. The Amended Petition alleges that at the time of the April 2006 accident the Mazda was insured by Nationwide which failed to issue a Texas Salvage Title and that ISO was to provide the crash information to vehicle reporting services, including the defendant Carfax. It further alleges that the Mazda was rebuilt and auctioned through a multi-state salvage reseller and sold to defendant Kendall (the driver) and that prior to purchase Kendall consulted Carfax’s Vehicle History Report which guaranteed no problem with the Mazda’s title and that it was not “junk,” neither “salvage nor rebuilt.” As a result, the Amended Petition alleges that Carfax’s report was in error and it sets forth a claim for negligence, negligent misrepresentation, gross negligence, strict liability, breach of contract and fraud against defendants Nationwide Insurance, Carfax and ISO in addition to the negligence claims against defendants General and Import Motors and Kendall and Hayward. It seeks actual damages, pain and suffering, loss of past and future earnings, past and future impairment and disfigurement, costs and interest from all defendants and exemplary damages from Nationwide, ISO and Carfax. The court denied the summary judgment motions of ISO and Nationwide on December 19, 2013 and January 6, 2014, respectively and granted the summary judgment motion of Carfax on January 27, 2014. Trial is scheduled to commence on May 13, 2014.

At this time, it is not possible to determine the ultimate resolution of, or estimate the liability related to this matter.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our historical financial statements and the related notes included in our annual report on Form 10-K, or 2013 10-K, dated and filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 25, 2014. This discussion contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results may differ materially from those discussed in or implied by any of the forward-looking statements as a result of various factors, including but not limited to those listed under “Risk Factors” and “Special Note Regarding Forward Looking Statements” in our 2013 10-K.

We enable risk-bearing businesses to better understand and manage their risks and opportunities associated with those risks. We provide value to our customers by supplying proprietary data that, combined with our analytic methods, creates embedded decision support solutions. We are the largest aggregator and provider of data pertaining to U.S. property and casualty, or P&C, insurance risks. We offer solutions for detecting fraud in the U.S. P&C insurance, financial services and healthcare industries and sophisticated methods to predict and quantify loss in diverse contexts ranging from natural catastrophes to supply chain to health insurance.

Our customers use our solutions to make better risk decisions with greater efficiency and discipline. We refer to these products and services as “solutions” due to the integration among our products and the flexibility that enables our customers to purchase components or the comprehensive package of products. These solutions take various forms, including data, statistical models or tailored analytics, all designed to allow our clients to make more logical decisions. We believe our solutions for analyzing risk positively impact our customers' revenues and help them better manage their costs.

We organize our business in two segments: Risk Assessment and Decision Analytics. Our Risk Assessment segment provides statistical, actuarial and underwriting data for the U.S. P&C insurance industry. Our Risk Assessment segment revenues represented approximately 39.6% and 40.5% of our revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. Our Decision Analytics segment provides solutions to our customers within four vertical market-related groupings of insurance, financial services, healthcare, and specialized markets. Our Decision Analytics segment revenues represented approximately 60.4% and 59.5% of our revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

Executive Summary

Key Performance Metrics    

We believe our business's ability to generate recurring revenue and positive cash flow is the key indicator of the successful execution of our business strategy. We use year-over-year revenue growth and EBITDA margin as metrics to measure our performance. EBITDA and EBITDA margin are non-GAAP financial measures within the meaning of Regulation G under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (See footnote 1 within the Condensed Consolidated Results of Operations section of Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations).

Revenue growth. We use year-over-year revenue growth as a key performance metric. We assess revenue growth based on our ability to generate increased revenue through increased sales to existing customers, sales to new customers, sales of new or expanded solutions to existing and new customers, and strategic acquisitions of new businesses.

EBITDA margin. We use EBITDA margin as a metric to assess segment performance and scalability of our business. We assess EBITDA margin based on our ability to increase revenues while controlling expense growth.

Revenues

We earn revenues through subscriptions, long-term agreements and on a transactional basis. Subscriptions for our solutions are generally paid in advance of rendering services either quarterly or in full upon commencement of the subscription period, which is usually for one year and automatically renewed each year. As a result, the timing of our cash flows generally precedes our recognition of revenues and income and our cash flow from operations tends to be higher in the first quarter as we receive subscription payments. Examples of these arrangements include subscriptions that allow our customers to access our standardized coverage language, our claims fraud database or our actuarial services throughout the subscription period. In general, we experience minimal revenue seasonality within the business. Our long-term agreements are generally for periods of three to five years. We recognize revenue from subscriptions ratably over the term of the subscription and most long-term agreements are recognized ratably over the term of the agreement.

Certain of our solutions are also paid for by our customers on a transactional basis. For example, we have solutions that allow our customers to access property-specific rating and underwriting information to price a policy on a commercial building, or compare a P&C insurance, medical or workers' compensation claim with information in our databases. For the three months

30

ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, approximately 25.1% and 27.1%, respectively, of our revenues were derived from providing transactional solutions. We earn transactional revenues as our solutions are delivered or services performed. In general, transactions are billed monthly at the end of each month.

Approximately 89.3% and 88.0% of the revenues in our Risk Assessment segment for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively, were derived from subscriptions and long-term agreements for our solutions. Our customers in this segment include most of the P&C insurance providers in the United States. Approximately 65.4% and 62.5% of the revenues in our Decision Analytics segment, for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively, were derived from subscriptions and long-term agreements for our solutions. In this segment, our customer bases are within the insurance, healthcare, financial services, and specialized markets verticals.

Principal Operating Costs and Expenses

Personnel expenses are the major component of both our cost of revenues and selling, general and administrative expenses. Personnel expenses, which represented 58.7% and 62.1% of our total expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively, include salaries, benefits, incentive compensation, equity compensation costs, sales commissions, employment taxes, recruiting costs, and outsourced temporary agency costs.

We allocate personnel expenses between two categories, cost of revenues and selling, general and administrative expense, based on the actual costs associated with each employee. We categorize employees who maintain our solutions as cost of revenues, and all other personnel, including executive managers, sales people, marketing, business development, finance, legal, human resources, and administrative services, as selling, general and administrative expenses. A significant portion of our other operating costs, such as facilities and communications, is also either captured within cost of revenues or selling, general and administrative expenses based on the nature of the work being performed.

While we expect to grow our headcount over time to take advantage of our market opportunities, we believe that the economies of scale in our operating model will allow us to grow our personnel expenses at a lower rate than revenues. Historically, our EBITDA margin has improved because we have been able to increase revenues without a proportionate corresponding increase in expenses. However, part of our corporate strategy is to invest in new solutions which may offset margin expansion.

Cost of Revenues. Our cost of revenues consists primarily of personnel expenses. Cost of revenues also includes the expenses associated with the acquisition and verification of data, the maintenance of our existing solutions and the development and enhancement of our next-generation solutions. Our cost of revenues excludes depreciation and amortization.

Selling, General and Administrative Expense. Our selling, general and administrative expenses also consist primarily of personnel costs. A portion of the other operating costs such as facilities, insurance and communications is also allocated to selling, general and administrative expenses based on the nature of the work being performed by the employee. Our selling, general and administrative expenses exclude depreciation and amortization.

Pending Acquisition

In January 2014, we entered into an agreement to acquire 100% of the stock of Eagleview Technology Corporation

(“EVT”), the parent company of Pictometry International Corp., and Eagle View Technologies, Inc. for a net cash purchase price of $650 million, which will be funded by the Company's operating cash and borrowings from our credit facility. EVT is a provider of geo-referenced aerial image capture and visual-centric data analytics and solutions to insurers, contractors, government, and commercial customers in the United States. This acquisition is expected to advance our position in the imagery analytics market, adding new municipal and commercial customers. The transaction is expected to support the aerial imagery solution development in our Decision Analytics segment. The closing of the transaction is subject to the completion of customary closing conditions, including receipt of regulatory and shareholder approvals. On March 28, 2014, we received a request for additional information (the “Second Request”) from the Federal Trade Commission under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976.  We are responding to the Second Request and presently expect the transaction to close during the third quarter of 2014.  Once the acquisition is completed, we plan to include EVT in the insurance vertical of our Decision Analytics segment.

Discontinued Operations

On March 11, 2014, we sold our mortgage services business, Interthinx. Results of operations for the mortgage services business are reported as a discontinued operation for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and for all prior periods presented. See Note 6 of our condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Form 10-Q. As necessary, all amounts have been retroactively adjusted in all periods presented to give recognition to this discontinued operation.

(1) EBITDA is the financial measure which management uses to evaluate the performance of our segments. “EBITDA” is defined as net income before interest expense, provision for income taxes, and depreciation and amortization of fixed and intangible assets. In addition, this Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations includes references to EBITDA margin, which is computed as EBITDA divided by revenues. See Note 13 of our condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Form 10-Q filing. Although EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure, EBITDA is frequently used by securities analysts, lenders and others 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 results of operations or cash flows from operating activities reported under GAAP. Management uses EBITDA in conjunction with traditional GAAP operating performance measures as part of its overall assessment of company performance. Some of these limitations are:

• EBITDA does not reflect our cash expenditures, or future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments;

• 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 EBITDA does not reflect any cash requirements for such replacements; and

• Other companies in our industry may calculate EBITDA differently than we do, limiting its usefulness as a comparative measure. Please note because EBITDA is calculated from net income, this presentation included EBITDA from discontinued operations of our mortgage services business.

(2) On March 11, 2014, we sold our mortgage services business, Interthinx. See Note 6 of our condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Form 10-Q filing.

Revenues were $409.6 millionfor the three months ended March 31, 2014 compared to $376.7 millionfor the three months ended March 31, 2013, an increase of $32.9 million or 8.7%. Revenues within our Decision Analytics segment increased by $23.2 million or 10.4% and revenues in our Risk Assessment segment increased by $9.7 million or 6.4%. Revenue growth within Decision Analytics was primarily driven by an increase in our insurance revenue category, healthcare and financial services.

Refer to the Results of Continuing Operations by Segment within this section for further information regarding our revenues.

Cost of Revenues

Cost of revenues was $169.7 millionfor the three months ended March 31, 2014 compared to $143.6 millionfor the three months ended March 31, 2013, an increase of $26.1 million or 18.1%. The increase was due to increases in salaries and employee benefits cost of $10.3 million, which includes a decrease in our pension expense of $1.3 million. Other increases were related to data and data processing costs of $11.7 million mostly within our Decision analytics segment, rent and maintenance expenses of $3.2 million, information technology expenses of $0.7 million, and other operating expenses of $0.2 million.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Selling, general and administrative expenses, or SGA, were $57.1 millionfor the three months ended March 31, 2014 compared to $56.3 millionfor the three months ended March 31, 2013, an increase of $0.8 million or 1.4%. The increase was due to an increase in professional consulting fees of $1.4 million and information technology expense of $1.1 million. These increases were offset by a decrease in salaries and employee benefits of $1.0 million and other general expenses of $0.7 million.

Depreciation and Amortization of Fixed Assets

Depreciation and amortization of fixed assets was $19.8 millionfor the three months ended March 31, 2014 compared to $14.2 millionfor the three months ended March 31, 2013, an increase of $5.6 million or 39.7%.

Investment Income and Realized Loss on Available-for-Sale Securities, Net

Investment income and realized loss on available-for-sale securities, net, was a gain of $0.0 millionfor the three months ended March 31, 2014 compared to a loss of $0.1 millionfor the three months ended March 31, 2013, an increase of $0.1 million.

Interest Expense

Interest expense was $17.4 millionfor the three months ended March 31, 2014 compared to $20.1 millionfor the three months ended March 31, 2013, a decrease of $2.7 million or 13.2%. The decrease is primarily due the repayment of various shelf notes that matured in 2013.

The provision for income taxes was $47.0 millionfor the three months ended March 31, 2014 compared to $45.8 millionfor the three months ended March 31, 2013, an increase of $1.2 million or 2.5%. The effective tax rate was 35.7%for the three months ended March 31, 2014 compared to 36.6%for the three months ended March 31, 2013. The effective rate for the three months ended March 31, 2014 was lower than the March 31, 2013 effective tax rate primarily due to favorable state legislative changes.

EBITDA Margin

The EBITDA margin for our consolidated results, including discontinued operations, was 56.6% for the three months ended March 31, 2014 compared to 44.6% for the three months ended March 31, 2013.

Our financial services revenue increased $3.7 million or 21.6%, primarily due to the continued demand for our analytic solutions and services within this category. Our healthcare revenue increased $4.8 million or 8.2%, primarily due to an increase in transactions within our revenue and quality intelligence solutions. Our specialized markets revenue decreased $0.2 million or 1.0% as a result of lower

34

activity related to government contracts partially offset by growth in our supply chain services and weather and climate commercial risk solutions.

	Three Months Ended   March 31,				Percentage
	2014		2013		Change
	(In thousands)

There was a net decrease in salaries and employee benefits of $1.4 million primarily related to the executive transition that took place in 2013. This decrease was partially offset by an increase in professional fees of $0.8 million and information technology expenses of $0.1 million.

EBITDA Margin

EBITDA margin for our Risk Assessment segment was 57.5% for the three months ended March 31, 2014 compared to 56.4% for the three months ended March 31, 2013. The increase in margin was primarily attributed to operating leverage in the segment as well as cost efficiencies.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, we had cash and cash equivalents and available-for-sale securities of $431.3 million and $169.7 million, respectively. Subscriptions for our solutions are billed and generally paid in advance of rendering services either quarterly or in full upon commencement of the subscription period, which is usually for one year. Subscriptions are automatically renewed at the beginning of each calendar year. We have historically generated significant cash flows from operations. As a result of this factor, as well as the availability of funds under our $975.0 million syndicated revolving credit facility, or credit facility, we believe that we will have sufficient cash to meet our working capital and capital expenditure needs, and to fuel our future growth plans.

We have historically managed the business with a working capital deficit due to the fact that, as described above, we offer our solutions and services primarily through annual subscriptions or long-term contracts, which are generally prepaid quarterly or annually in advance of the services being rendered. When cash is received for prepayment of invoices, we record an asset (cash and cash equivalents) on our balance sheet with the offset recorded as a current liability (fees received in advance). This current liability is deferred revenue that does not require a direct cash outflow since our customers have prepaid and are obligated to purchase the services. In most businesses, growth in revenue typically leads to an increase in the accounts receivable balance causing a use of cash as a company grows. Unlike those businesses, our cash position is favorably affected by revenue growth, which results in a source of cash due to our customers prepaying for most of our services.

Our capital expenditures as a percentage of revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, were 8.6% and 7.0%, respectively. The increase in capital expenditures is primarily due to our investment initiatives for development of new solutions. The expected capital expenditures for the year ending December 31, 2014 will be approximately $147.0 million, which we expect to primarily include expenditures on our technology infrastructure and our continuing investments in developing and enhancing our solutions. Expenditures related to developing and enhancing our solutions are predominately related to internal use software and are capitalized in accordance with ASC 350-40, "Accounting for Costs of Computer Software Developed or Obtained for Internal Use." We also capitalize amounts in accordance with ASC 985-20, "Software to be Sold, Leased or Otherwise Marketed."

We have also historically used a portion of our cash for repurchases of our common stock from our stockholders. During the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, we repurchased $88.7 million and $21.5 million of our common stock, respectively. 

Financing and Financing Capacity

We had total debt, excluding capital lease obligations, of $1,265.3 million and $1,265.1 million at March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively. The debt at March 31, 2014 was primarily issued under senior notes issued in 2012 and 2011 and long-term private placement loan facilities to finance our stock repurchases and acquisitions.

Our $975.0 million credit facility is due October 2018 and is a committed facility. We have financed and expect to finance our short-term working capital needs, stock repurchases and acquisitions through cash from operations and borrowings from our credit facility. As of March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, we had no outstanding borrowings under the credit facility. We did not make any borrowings during the three months ended March 31, 2014.  As of March 31, 2014, we had $972.9 million, net of letters of credit, of borrowing capacity available under our credit facility. We expect to finance a portion of the cash purchase price of the EVT acquisition with borrowings from our credit facility. EVT is expected to close in the third quarter of 2014. The credit facility contains certain customary financial and other covenants that, among other things, impose certain restrictions on indebtedness, liens, investments, and capital expenditures. These covenants also place restrictions on mergers, asset sales, sale/leaseback transactions, payments between us and our subsidiaries, and certain transactions with affiliates. The financial covenants require that, at the end of any four fiscal quarters, we have a consolidated interest coverage ratio of at least 3.0 to 1.0 and that we

36

maintain a consolidated funded debt leverage ratio below 3.50 to 1.0. We were in compliance with all debt covenants under the credit facility as of March 31, 2014.

As of March 31, 2014, we had senior notes with an aggregate principal amount of $1,050.0 million. The senior notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed, jointly and severally, on an unsecured and unsubordinated basis by ISO and certain subsidiaries that guarantee our credit facility. The indenture governing the senior notes restricts our ability and our subsidiaries' ability to, among other things, create certain liens, enter into sale/leaseback transactions and consolidate with, sell, lease, convey or otherwise transfer all or substantially all of our assets, or merge with or into, any other person or entity.

We had long-term private placement loan facilities under uncommitted master shelf agreements with Prudential Capital Group and New York Life that expired on August 30, 2013 and March 16, 2013, respectively.  We did not extend these agreements. The shelf notes mature over the next three years. The weighted average rate of interest with respect to our outstanding borrowings under these facilities was 6.36% for the three months ended March 31, 2014. The shelf notes contain certain covenants that limit our ability to create liens, enter into sale/leaseback transactions and consolidate, merge or sell assets to another company. Our shelf notes also contain financial covenants that require that, at the end of any four fiscal quarters, we have a consolidated interest coverage ratio of at least 3.0 to 1.0 and that we maintain a consolidated funded debt leverage ratio below 3.0 to 1.0 at the end of any fiscal quarter. We were in compliance with all debt covenants under our master shelf agreements as of March 31, 2014.

Cash Flow

The following table summarizes our cash flow data for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013:

	Three Months Ended March 31,						Percentage Change
	2014			2013
	(In thousands)
Net cash provided by operating activities	$	232,828		$	191,257		21.7	%
Net cash provided by (used in) investing activities	$	109,865		$	(27,608	)	497.9	%
Net cash (used in) provided by financing activities	$	(81,625	)	$	14,296		(671.0	)%

Operating Activities

Net cash provided by operating activities increased to $232.8 millionfor the three months ended March 31, 2014 compared to $191.3 millionfor the three months ended March 31, 2013. The increase in operating activities was primarily due to an increase in cash collections from customers, partially offset by an increase in operating expense payments. Also, our fourth quarter 2012 tax payment was deferred to the first quarter of 2013 as a result of a temporary federal tax relief program related to Hurricane Sandy. This payment would have typically been paid in the fourth quarter of 2012, but due to this relief, the payment was made in the first quarter of 2013.

Investing Activities

Net cash provided by investing activities was $109.9 millionfor the three months ended March 31, 2014 and net cash used in investing activities was $27.6 millionfor the three months ended March 31, 2013. The increase in net cash provided by investing activities was primarily due to the sale of our mortgage services business for $155.0 million.

Financing Activities

Net cash used in financing activities was $81.6 millionfor the three months ended March 31, 2014 and net cash provided by financing activities was $14.3 millionfor the three months ended March 31, 2013. Net cash used in financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2014 was primarily related to the repurchase of common stock of $88.2 million, partially offset by proceeds from stock option exercises of $7.8 million. Net cash provided by financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2013, was primarily related to proceeds from stock option exercises and the related tax benefit associated with these exercises of $48.6 million, partially offset by repurchases of common stock of $22.1 million and debt payments of $10.0 million.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We have no off-balance sheet arrangements.

Contractual Obligations

37

There have been no material changes to our contractual obligations outside the ordinary course of our business from those reported in our annual report on Form 10-K and filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 25, 2014.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations are based on our condensed consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements require management to make estimates and judgments that affect reported amounts of assets and liabilities and related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the financial statements and revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. These estimates are based on historical experience and on other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. On an ongoing basis, management evaluates its estimates, including those related to revenue recognition, goodwill and intangible assets, pension and other post retirement benefits, stock-based compensation, and income taxes. Actual results may differ from these assumptions or conditions. Some of the judgments that management makes in applying its accounting estimates in these areas are discussed under the heading “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in our annual report on Form 10-K dated and filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 25, 2014. Since the date of our annual report on Form 10-K, there have been no material changes to our critical accounting policies and estimates.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Market risks at March 31, 2014 have not materially changed from those discussed under Item 7A in our annual report on Form 10-K dated and filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 25, 2014.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We are required to maintain disclosure controls and procedures (as that term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures. Any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives at the reasonable assurance level.

Our management, with the participation of the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report on Form 10-Q. Based upon the foregoing assessments, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of March 31, 2014, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Condensed Consolidated Financial Information for Guarantor Subsidiaries and Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries

Verisk Analytics, Inc. (the “Parent Company”) registered senior notes with full and unconditional and joint and several guarantees by certain of its 100 percent owned subsidiaries and issued certain other unregistered debt securities with full and unconditional and joint and several guarantees by certain 100 percent owned subsidiaries. Accordingly, presented below is the condensed consolidating financial information for (i) the Parent Company, (ii) the guarantor subsidiaries of the Parent Company on a combined basis and (iii) all other non-guarantor subsidiaries of the Parent Company on a combined basis, as of March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013 and for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013. The condensed consolidating financial information has been presented using the equity method of accounting, to show the nature of assets held, results of operations, comprehensive income and cash flows of the Parent Company, the guarantor subsidiaries and the non-guarantor subsidiaries assuming all guarantor subsidiaries provide both full and unconditional, and joint and several guarantees to the Parent Company at the beginning of the periods presented. Effective as of December 31, 2013, Verisk Health, Inc. and Verisk Health Solutions, Inc., guarantors of the senior notes, merged with and into Bloodhound Technologies, Inc. ("Bloodhound"), a non-guarantor of the senior notes, pursuant to which Bloodhound (renamed Verisk Health, Inc.) was the surviving corporation. By virtue of the merger, the surviving corporation of Verisk Health, Inc. expressly assumed all of the obligations of the former Verisk Health, Inc. and Verisk Health Solutions, Inc., including the guarantee by them of the senior notes. As a result, the condensed consolidating statements of operations, statements of comprehensive income and statements of cash flows of the former Bloodhound subsidiary for the three months ended March 31, 2014 were included in the financial information of the guarantor subsidiaries.

Segment Reporting [Abstract]

Segment Reporting

Segment Reporting:

ASC 280-10, Disclosures About Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information (“ASC 280-10”), establishes standards for reporting information about operating segments. ASC 280-10 requires that a public business enterprise report financial and descriptive information about its reportable operating segments.

Operating segments are components of an enterprise for which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. The Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer is identified as the CODM as defined by ASC 280-10. To align with the internal management of the Company’s business operations based on service offerings, the Company is organized into the following two operating segments, which are also the Company’s reportable segments:

Decision Analytics: The Company develops solutions that its customers use to analyze the three key processes in managing risk: ‘prediction of loss’, ‘detection and prevention of fraud’ and ‘quantification of loss’. The Company’s combination of algorithms and analytic methods incorporates its proprietary data to generate solutions. In most cases, the Company’s customers integrate the solutions into their models, formulas or underwriting criteria in order to predict potential loss events, ranging from hurricanes and earthquakes to unanticipated healthcare claims. The Company develops catastrophe and extreme event models and offers solutions covering natural and man-made risks, including acts of terrorism. The Company also develops solutions that allow customers to quantify costs after loss events occur. Fraud solutions include data on claim histories, analysis of claims to find emerging patterns of fraud, and identification of suspicious claims in the insurance and healthcare sectors. The Company discloses revenue within this segment based on the industry vertical groupings of insurance, financial services, healthcare and specialized markets.

Risk Assessment: The Company is the leading provider of statistical, actuarial and underwriting data for the U.S. P&C insurance industry. The Company’s databases include cleansed and standardized records describing premiums and losses in insurance transactions, casualty and property risk attributes for commercial buildings and their occupants and fire suppression capabilities of municipalities. The Company uses this data to create policy language and proprietary risk classifications that are industry standards and to generate prospective loss cost estimates used to price insurance policies.

Discontinued Operations: On March 11, 2014, the Company sold its mortgage services business, Interthinx, which was included in the Decision Analytics segment. Results of operations for the mortgage services business are reported as a discontinued operation for the three months ended March 31, 2014, and for all prior periods presented. Refer to Note 6 for more information.

The two aforementioned operating segments represent the segments for which separate discrete financial information is available and upon which operating results are regularly evaluated by the CODM in order to assess performance and allocate resources. The Company uses EBITDA as the profitability measure for making decisions regarding ongoing operations. EBITDA is net income before interest expense, provision for income taxes, depreciation and amortization of fixed and intangible assets. EBITDA is the measure of operating results used to assess corporate performance and optimal utilization of debt and acquisitions. Operating expenses consist of direct and indirect costs principally related to personnel, facilities, software license fees, consulting, travel, and third-party information services. Indirect costs are generally allocated to the segments using fixed rates established by management based upon estimated expense contribution levels and other assumptions that management considers reasonable. The Company does not allocate interest expense and provision for income taxes, since these items are not considered in evaluating the segment’s overall operating performance. The CODM does not evaluate the financial performance of each segment based on assets. On a geographic basis, no individual country outside of the U.S. accounted for 1.0% or more of the Company’s consolidated revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2014 or 2013. No individual country outside of the U.S. accounted for 1.0% or more of total consolidated long-term assets as of March 31, 2014 or December 31, 2013.

The following table provides the Company’s revenue and operating income by reportable segment for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations:

Commitments and Contingencies

Commitments and Contingencies:

The Company is a party to legal proceedings with respect to a variety of matters in the ordinary course of business, including the matters described below. With respect to ongoing matters, the Company is unable, at the present time, to determine the ultimate resolution of or provide a reasonable estimate of the range of possible loss attributable to these matters or the impact they may have on the Company’s results of operations, financial position or cash flows. This is primarily because the matters are generally in early stages and discovery has either not commenced or been completed. Although the Company believes it has strong defenses and intends to vigorously defend these matters, the Company could in the future incur judgments or enter into settlements of claims that could have a material adverse effect on its results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

Intellicorp Records, Inc. Litigation and iiX Litigation

On April 20, 2012, the Company was served with a class action complaint filed in Alameda County Superior Court in California naming the Company’s subsidiary Intellicorp Records, Inc. (“Intellicorp”) titled Jane Roe v. Intellicorp Records, Inc. The complaint alleged violations of the Fair Credit Reporting Act (“FCRA”) and claimed that Intellicorp failed to implement reasonable procedures to assure maximum possible accuracy of the adverse information contained in the background reports, failed to maintain strict procedures to ensure that criminal record information provided to employers is complete and up to date, and failed to notify class members contemporaneously of the fact that criminal record information was being provided to their employers and prospective employers. Intellicorp removed the case to the United States District Court of the Northern District of California. The California Court later granted Intellicorp’s motion to transfer the case, which is now pending in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Ohio. On October 24, 2012 plaintiffs served their First Amended Complaint (the “Roe Complaint”) alleging a nationwide putative class action on behalf of all persons who were the subject of a Criminal SuperSearch or other “instant” consumer background report furnished to a third party by Intellicorp for employment purposes, and whose report contained any negative public record of criminal arrest, charge, or conviction without also disclosing the final disposition of the charges during the 5 years preceding the filing of this action through the date class certification is granted. The Roe Complaint seeks statutory damages for the class in an amount not less than one hundred dollars and not more than one thousand dollars per violation, punitive damages, costs and attorneys’ fees. On February 4, 2013, the Court granted plaintiffs’ motion to amend the Roe Complaint to eliminate the named plaintiff’s individual claim for compensatory damages. This amendment did not change the breadth or scope of the request for relief sought on behalf of the proposed class. Plaintiffs later amended their class definition in their motion for class certification to include only those consumers whose (1) Criminal SuperSearch returned results, but Single County search returned no result; (2) Criminal SuperSearch returned one or more criminal charges without a disposition, but the Single County search returned a disposition other than “conviction” or “guilty” and (3) Criminal SuperSearch returned a higher level of offense (felony or misdemeanor) for one or more criminal charges than the Single County search (misdemeanor or infraction.) This amendment reduces the size of the potential class, but does not alter the time period for which the plaintiffs seek to certify a class or the scope of the request for relief sought on behalf of the proposed class. Plaintiffs’ motion for class certification was fully submitted on March 18, 2013 and oral argument was heard by Judge Gwin on June 27, 2013.

On November 1, 2012, the Company was served with a complaint filed in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Ohio naming the Company’s subsidiary Intellicorp Records, Inc. titled Michael R. Thomas v. Intellicorp Records, Inc. On January 7, 2013 plaintiff served its First Amended Complaint (the “Thomas Complaint”) to add Mark A. Johnson (the plaintiff in the Johnson v. iiX matter described below) as a named plaintiff. The Thomas Complaint alleges a nationwide putative class action for violations of FCRA on behalf of “[a]ll natural persons residing in the United States (a) who were the subject of a report sold by Intellicorp to a third party, (b) that was furnished for an employment purpose, (c) that contained at least one public record of a criminal conviction or arrest, civil lien, bankruptcy or civil judgment, (d) within five years next preceding the filing of this action and during its pendency, and (e) to whom Intellicorp did not place in the United States mail postage-prepaid, on the day it furnished any part of the report, a written notice that it was furnishing the subject report and containing the name of the person that was to receive the report.” The Thomas Complaint proposes an alternative subclass as follows: “[a]ll natural persons residing in Ohio or Tennessee (a) who were the subject of a report sold by Intellicorp to a third party, (b) that was furnished for an employment purpose, (c) that contained at least one public record of a criminal conviction or arrest, civil lien, bankruptcy or civil judgment, (d) within five years next preceding the filing of this action and during its pendency, (e) when a mutual review of the record would reveal that the identity associated with the public record does not match the identity of the class member about whom the report was furnished, and (f) to whom Intellicorp did not place in the United States mail postage pre-paid, on the day it furnished any part of the report, a written notice that it was furnishing the subject report and containing the name of the person that was to receive the report.” Similar to the Roe action, the Thomas Complaint alleges that Intellicorp violated the FCRA, asserting that Intellicorp violated section 1681k(a)(1) of the FCRA because it failed to provide notice to the plaintiffs “at the time” the adverse public record information was reported. The named plaintiffs also allege individual claims under section 1681e(b) claiming that Intellicorp failed to follow reasonable procedures to assure maximum possible accuracy in the preparation of the consumer report it furnished pertaining to plaintiffs. The Thomas Complaint seeks statutory damages for the class in an amount not less than one hundred dollars and not more than one thousand dollars per violation, punitive damages, costs and attorneys’ fees, as well as compensatory and punitive damages on behalf of the named plaintiffs.

On January 3, 2013, the Company received service of a complaint filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of Ohio naming the Company’s subsidiary Insurance Information Exchange (“iiX”) titled Mark A. Johnson v. Insurance Information Exchange, LLC (the “Johnson Complaint”). The Johnson Complaint alleges a nationwide putative class action on behalf of “[a]ll natural persons residing in the United States who were the subject of a consumer report prepared by iiX for employment purposes within five (5) years prior to the filing of this Complaint and to whom iiX did not provide notice of the fact that public record information which is likely to have an adverse effect upon the consumer’s ability to obtain employment, is being reported by iiX, together with the name and address of the person to whom such information is being reported at the time such public record information is reported to the user of such consumer report.” Similar to the Thomas matter, the Johnson Complaint alleges violations of section 1681k(a) of the FCRA claiming that iiX failed to notify customers contemporaneously that criminal record information was provided to a prospective employer and failed to maintain strict procedures to ensure that the information reported is complete and up to date. The Johnson Complaint seeks statutory damages for the class in an amount not less than one hundred dollars and not more than one thousand dollars per violation, punitive damages, costs and attorneys’ fees.

On October 18, 2013, the parties filed a Stipulation of Settlement resolving the Roe, Thomas and Johnson matters which Judge Gwin approved on October 29, 2013 subject to a hearing on Final Approval. The Stipulation of Settlement provides for a payment of $18,600 all of which is to be provided by insurance. Accordingly, if the Stipulation of Settlement is approved at the hearing on Final Approval, the settlement of these matters is not expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company.

Interthinx, Inc. Litigation

On May 13, 2013, the Company was served with a putative class action titled Celeste Shaw v. Interthinx, Inc., Verisk Analytics, Inc. and Jeffrey Moyer. The plaintiff is a current employee of the Company’s former subsidiary Interthinx, Inc. based in Colorado, who filed the class action in the United States District Court for the District of Colorado on behalf of all fraud detection employees who have worked for Interthinx for the last three years nationwide and who were classified as exempt employees. The class complaint claims that the fraud detection employees were misclassified as exempt employees and, as a result, were denied certain wages and benefits that would have been received if they were properly classified as non-exempt employees. It pleads three causes of action against defendants: (1) Collective Action under section 216(b) of the Fair Labor Standards Act for unpaid overtime (nationwide class); (2) A Fed. R. Civ. P. 23 class action under the Colorado Wage Act and Wage Order for unpaid overtime and (3) A Fed. R. Civ. P. 23 class action under Colorado Wage Act for unpaid commissions/nondiscretionary bonuses (Colorado class). The complaint seeks compensatory damages, penalties that are associated with the various statutes, declaratory and injunctive relief interest, costs and attorneys’ fees.

On July 2, 2013, the Company was served with a putative class action titled Shabnam Shelia Dehdashtian v. Interthinx, Inc. and Verisk Analytics, Inc. in the United States District Court for the Central District of California. The plaintiff, Shabnam Shelia Dehdashtian, a former mortgage auditor at the Company’s former subsidiary Interthinx, Inc. in California, filed the class action on behalf of all persons who have been employed by Interthinx as auditors, mortgage compliance underwriters and mortgage auditors nationwide at any time (i) within 3 years prior to the filing of this action until trial for the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) class and (ii) within 4 years prior to the filing of the initial complaint until trial for the California collective action. The class complaint claims that the defendants failed to pay overtime compensation, to provide rest and meal periods, waiting time penalties and to provide accurate wage statements to the plaintiffs as required by federal and California law. It pleads seven causes of action against defendants: (1) Failure to pay overtime compensation in violation of the FLSA for unpaid overtime (nationwide class); (2) Failure to pay overtime compensation in violation of Cal. Lab. Code sections 510, 1194 and 1198 and IWC Wage Order No. 4; (3) Failure to pay waiting time penalties in violation of Cal. Lab. Code sections 201-203; (4) Failure to provide itemized wage statements in violation of Cal. Lab. Code section 226 and IWC Order No. 4; (5) Failure to provide and or authorize meal and rest periods in violation of Cal. Lab. Code section 226.7 and IWC Order No. 4; (6) Violation of California Business and Professions Code sections 17200 et seq; and (7) a Labor Code Private Attorney General Act (PAGA) Public enforcement claim, Cal. Lab. Code section 2699 (California class). The complaint seeks compensatory damages, penalties that are associated with the various statutes, equitable and injunctive relief, interest, costs and attorneys’ fees.

On October 14, 2013, the Company received notice of a claim titled Dejan Nagl v. Interthinx Services, Inc. filed in the California Labor and Workforce Development Agency. The claimant, Dejan Nagl, a former mortgage auditor at the Company’s former subsidiary Interthinx, Inc. in California, filed the claim on behalf of himself and all current and former individuals employed in California as auditors by Interthinx, Inc. for violations of the California Labor Code and Wage Order. The claimant alleges on behalf of himself and other auditors the following causes of action: (1) Failure to provide rest breaks and meal periods in violation of Lab. Code sections 226.7, 514 and 1198; (2) Failure to pay overtime wages in violation of Lab. Code sections 510 and 1194; (3) Failure to provide accurate wage statements in violation of Lab. Code section 226; (4) Failure to timely pay wages in violation of Lab. Code section 204 and (5) Failures to timely pay wages for violations of Lab. Code sections 201- 203. The claim seeks compensatory damages and penalties that are associated with the various statutes, costs and attorneys’ fees.

On March 11, 2014, the Company sold 100 percent of the stock of Interthinx (see Note 6. Discontinued Operations for additional details). Pursuant to the terms of the sale agreement, the Company is responsible for the resolution of these matters.

At this time, it is not possible to determine the ultimate resolution of, or estimate the liability related to these matters.

Mariah Re Litigation

On July 8, 2013, the Company was served with summons and complaint filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York in an action titled Mariah Re LTD. v. American Family Mutual Insurance Company, ISO Services, Inc. and AIR Worldwide Corporation, which was amended by the plaintiff on October 18, 2013 (the “Amended Complaint”). Plaintiff Mariah is a special purpose vehicle established to provide reinsurance to defendant American Family Insurance.

MediConnect Global, Inc. Litigation

On October 11, 2013, the Company was served with a summons and complaint in an action titled Naveen Trehan v. MediConnect Global, Inc., Amy Anderson and Verisk Health, Inc. filed on October 9, 2013 in the United States District Court for the District of Utah. The complaint, brought by a former minority shareholder of the Company’s subsidiary, MediConnect Global, Inc., alleges four causes of action: (1) breach of fiduciary duty against MediConnect and Amy Anderson for failure to disclose the Company's interest in acquiring, merging with or investing in MediConnect prior to the buyout of his shares; (2) fraud against  Amy Anderson and MediConnect for intentionally providing false information to plaintiff with the purpose of inducing him to agree to sell his shares at an artificially low price; (3) negligent misrepresentation against Amy Anderson and MediConnect for their negligent failure to discover and disclose the Company's interest in acquiring MediConnect prior to the buyout of plaintiff’s shares and (4) a violation of SEC Rule 10b-5 against Amy Anderson and MediConnect for defrauding plaintiff and failing to disclose material information in connection with the sale of securities.  The complaint seeks joint and several recovery from Amy Anderson and MediConnect for compensatory damages, punitive damages, and disgorgement of all profits earned through the investment of plaintiff’s funds, attorneys’ fees, interest and an order from the court that plaintiff’s funds be held in a constructive trust.

At this time, it is not possible to determine the ultimate resolution of, or estimate the liability related to this matter.

Insurance Services Office, Inc Litigation

In October 2013, the Company was served with a summons and complaint filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York in an action titled Laurence J. Skelly and Ellen Burke v. Insurance Services Office, Inc. and the Pension Plan for Insurance Organizations. The plaintiffs, former employees of our subsidiary Insurance Services Office, Inc., or ISO, bring the action on their own behalf as participants in the Pension Plan for Insurance Organizations and on the behalf of similarly situated participants of the pension plan and ask the court to declare that a certain amendment to the pension plan as of December 31, 2001, which terminated their right to calculate and define the value of their retirement benefit under the pension plan based on their compensation levels as of immediately prior to their “retirement” (the “Unlawful Amendment”), violated the anti-cutback provisions and equitable principles of ERISA. The First Amended Class Action Complaint (the “Amended Complaint”) alleges that (1) the Unlawful Amendment of the pension plan violated Section 502(a)(1)(B) of ERISA as well as the anti-cutback rules of ERISA Section 204(g) and Section 411(d)(6) of the Internal Revenue Code; (2) ISO’s failure to provide an ERISA 204(h) notice in a manner calculated to be understood by the average pension plan participant was a violation of Sections 204(h) and 102(a) of ERISA and (3) the Living Pension Right was a contract right under ERISA common law and that by terminating that right through the Unlawful Amendment ISO violated plaintiffs’ common law contract rights under ERISA. The Amended Complaint seeks declaratory, equitable and injunctive relief enjoining the enforcement of the Unlawful Amendment and ordering the pension plan and ISO retroactive to the date of the Unlawful Amendment to recalculate the accrued benefits of all class members, indemnification from ISO to the pension plan for costs and contribution requirements related to voiding the Unlawful Amendment, bonuses to the class representatives, costs and attorney’s fees.

At this time, it is not possible to determine the ultimate resolution of, or estimate the liability related to, this matter.

On April 9, 2013, the Company's subsidiary ISO was served with a First Amended Petition and Request for Disclosure filed in the District Court of Dallas County, Texas in an action titled Sidah Garner v. Nationwide Mutual Insurance Company, Carfax, Inc., General and Import Motors, Porschea Nicole Kendall, Daniel Scott Hayward and Insurance Services Office, Inc. Thereafter, on June 5, 2013 and August 16, 2013 plaintiff served its Second Amended Petition and Third Amended Petition (“the Amended Petition”) on defendants. This action arises from a car accident on June 6, 2011 in which the plaintiff was critically injured. At the time of the accident the plaintiff was in the passenger seat of a 2004 Mazda, which the plaintiff alleges was previously involved in a total loss rollover collision on April 25, 2006. The Amended Petition alleges that at the time of the April 2006 accident the Mazda was insured by Nationwide which failed to issue a Texas Salvage Title and that ISO was to provide the crash information to vehicle reporting services, including the defendant Carfax. It further alleges that the Mazda was rebuilt and auctioned through a multi-state salvage reseller and sold to defendant Kendall (the driver) and that prior to purchase Kendall consulted Carfax’s Vehicle History Report which guaranteed no problem with the Mazda’s title and that it was not “junk,” neither “salvage nor rebuilt.” As a result, the Amended Petition alleges that Carfax’s report was in error and it sets forth a claim for negligence, negligent misrepresentation, gross negligence, strict liability, breach of contract and fraud against defendants Nationwide Insurance, Carfax and ISO in addition to the negligence claims against defendants General and Import Motors and Kendall and Hayward. It seeks actual damages, pain and suffering, loss of past and future earnings, past and future impairment and disfigurement, costs and interest from all defendants and exemplary damages from Nationwide, ISO and Carfax. The court denied the summary judgment motions of ISO and Nationwide on December 19, 2013 and January 6, 2014, respectively and granted the summary judgment motion of Carfax on January 27, 2014. Trial is scheduled to commence on May 13, 2014.

At this time, it is not possible to determine the ultimate resolution of, or estimate the liability related to this matter.

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]

Income Taxes

Income Taxes:

The Company’s effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2014 was 35.7%, compared to the effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2013 of 36.6%. The effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2014 is lower than the March 31, 2013 effective tax rate primarily due to favorable state legislative changes. The difference between statutory tax rates and the Company’s effective tax rate is primarily attributable to state taxes and nondeductible share appreciation from the ISO 401(k) Savings and Employee Stock Ownership Plan (“KSOP”).

Accounting Policies [Abstract]

Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies:

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the basis of accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. (“U.S. GAAP”). The preparation of financial statements in conformity with these accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Significant estimates include acquisition purchase price allocations, the fair value of goodwill, the realization of deferred tax assets, fair value of stock based compensation, assets and liabilities for pension and postretirement benefits, and the estimate for the allowance for doubtful accounts. Actual results may ultimately differ from those estimates. The results of operations for the Company's mortgage services business are reported as a discontinued operation for the periods presented herein (See Note 6).

The condensed consolidated financial statements as of March 31, 2014 and for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, in the opinion of management, include all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring accruals, to present fairly the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows. The operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2014 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. The condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes for the three months ended March 31, 2014 have been prepared on the same basis as and should be read in conjunction with the annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).

In March 2013, the Financial Accounting Standard Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2013-05, Parent’s Accounting for the Cumulative Translation Adjustment upon Derecognition of Certain Subsidiaries or Groups of Assets within a Foreign Entity or of an Investment in a Foreign Entity (“ASU No. 2013-05”). Under ASU No. 2013-05, an entity is required to release any related cumulative translation adjustment into net income upon cessation to have a controlling financial interest in a subsidiary or group of assets within a foreign entity. ASU 2013-05 is effective prospectively for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2013. ASU No. 2013-05 was adopted by the Company on January 1, 2014. The adoption of ASU No. 2013-05 did not have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

In July 2013, the FASB issued ASU No. 2013-11, Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit When a Net Operating Loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss, or a Tax Credit Carryforward Exists (“ASU No. 2013-11”).  Under ASU No. 2013-11, an unrecognized tax benefit should be presented as a reduction to a deferred tax asset for a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward, with the exception that these unrecognized tax benefits are not available at the reporting date to settle any additional income taxes that would result from the disallowance of a tax position or the tax law.  An additional exception applies when the tax law does not require the entity to use, and the entity does not intend to use, the deferred tax asset for such purpose, then the unrecognized tax benefit should be presented as a liability and should not be combined with deferred tax assets.  ASU No. 2013-11 is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2013. The Company adopted the standard on January 1, 2014.  The adoption of ASU No. 2013-11 did not have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

In April 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-08, Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity (“ASU No. 2014-08”).  Under ASU No. 2014-08, a disposal of a component of an entity or a group of components of an entity is required to be reported in discontinued operations if the disposal represents a strategic shift that has (or will have) a major effect on an entity’s operations and financial results.  The amendments in this ASU further require additional disclosures on discontinued operations in the financial statements.  ASU No. 2014-08 is effective prospectively for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2014.  Early adoption is permitted, but only for disposals (or classifications as held-for-sale) that have not been reported in the financial statements previously issued.  The Company has elected not to early adopt and will assess the impact of this standard when applicable circumstances are required to be reported in discontinued operations under the existing guidance and this ASU.

Stockholders' Equity

Equity [Abstract]

Stockholders' Equity

Stockholders’ Equity:

The Company has 1,200,000,000 shares of authorized Class A common stock. The common shares have rights to any dividend declared by the board of directors, subject to any preferential or other rights of any outstanding preferred stock, and voting rights to elect all twelve members of the board of directors.

Share Repurchase Program

The Company has authorized repurchases of up to $1,200,000 of its common stock through its Repurchase Program. Since the introduction of share repurchase as a feature of the Company's capital management strategies in 2010, the Company has repurchased shares with an aggregate value of $1,123,475. As of March 31, 2014, the Company had $76,525 available to repurchase shares. The Company has no obligation to repurchase stock under this program and intends to use this authorization as a means of offsetting dilution from the issuance of shares under the KSOP, the Verisk 2013 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2013 Incentive Plan”), the Verisk 2009 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2009 Incentive Plan”), and the ISO 1996 Incentive Plan (the “1996 Incentive Plan”), while providing flexibility to repurchase additional shares if warranted. This authorization has no expiration date and may be increased, reduced, suspended, or terminated at any time. Repurchased shares will be recorded as treasury stock and will be available for future issuance as part of the Repurchase Program.

During the three months ended March 31, 2014, the Company repurchased 1,399,349 shares of common stock as part of the Repurchase Program at a weighted average price of $63.41 per share. The Company utilized cash from operations and the proceeds from its senior notes to fund these repurchases. As treasury stock purchases are recorded based on trade date, the Company has included $3,605 in “Accounts payable and accrued liabilities” in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets for those purchases that have not settled as of March 31, 2014.

Treasury Stock

As of March 31, 2014, the Company’s treasury stock consisted of 377,471,924 shares of Class A common stock. During the three months ended March 31, 2014, the Company reissued 472,536 shares of Class A common stock from the treasury shares at a weighted average price of $5.06 per share.

Earnings Per Share (“EPS”)

Basic EPS is computed by dividing income from continuing operations, income from discontinued operations and net income available to common stockholders, respectively, by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. The computation of diluted EPS is similar to the computation of basic EPS except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding, using the treasury stock method, if the dilutive potential common shares, including stock options, nonvested restricted stock, and nonvested restricted stock units, had been issued.

The following is a reconciliation of the numerators and denominators of the basic and diluted EPS computations for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013:

	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2014		2013
Numerator used in basic and diluted EPS:
Income from continuing operations	$	84,441	$	79,445
Income from discontinued operations, net of tax of $23,365 and $835, respectively (Note 6)		31,117		1,066
Net income	$	115,558	$	80,511
Denominator:
Weighted average number of common shares used in basic EPS		166,981,982		168,078,589
Effect of dilutive shares:
Potential common shares issuable from stock options and stock awards		3,439,507		4,682,052
Weighted average number of common shares and dilutive potential common shares used in diluted EPS		170,421,489		172,760,641
Basic net income per share:
Income from continuing operations	$	0.50	$	0.47
Income from discontinued operations		0.19		0.01
Basic net income per share	$	0.69	$	0.48
Diluted net income per share:
Income from continuing operations	$	0.50	$	0.46
Income from discontinued operations		0.18		0.01
Diluted net income per share	$	0.68	$	0.47

The potential shares of common stock that were excluded from diluted EPS were 761,848 and 34,062 for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively, because the effect of including these potential shares was anti-dilutive.

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]

Fair Value Measurements

Fair Value Measurements:

Certain assets and liabilities of the Company are reported at fair value in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. Such assets and liabilities include amounts for both financial and non-financial instruments. To increase consistency and comparability of assets and liabilities recorded at fair value, ASC 820-10, Fair Value Measurements (“ASC 820-10”), established a three-level fair value hierarchy to prioritize the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. ASC 820-10 requires disclosures detailing the extent to which companies measure assets and liabilities at fair value, the methods and assumptions used to measure fair value and the effect of fair value measurements on earnings. In accordance with ASC 820-10, the Company applied the following fair value hierarchy:

Level 1 -	Assets or liabilities for which the identical item is traded on an active exchange, such as publicly-traded    instruments.
Level 2 -	Assets and liabilities valued based on observable market data for similar instruments.
Level 3 -	Assets or liabilities for which significant valuation assumptions are not readily observable in the market;    instruments valued based on the best available data, some of which are internally-developed, and considers    risk premiums that market participants would require.

The fair values of cash and cash equivalents (other than money-market funds, which are recorded on a reported net asset value basis disclosed below), accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, and short-term debt expected to be refinanced approximate their carrying amounts because of the short-term nature of these instruments. 

The following table summarizes fair value measurements by level for cash equivalents and registered investment companies that were measured at fair value on a recurring basis:

	Total		Quoted Prices in Active Markets for Identical Assets (Level 1)		Significant Other Observable Inputs (Level 2)
March 31, 2014
Cash equivalents - money-market funds	$	2,115	$	—	$	2,115
Registered investment companies (1)	$	3,918	$	3,918	$	—
December 31, 2013
Cash equivalents - money-market funds	$	889	$	—	$	889
Registered investment companies (1)	$	3,911	$	3,911	$	—

______________________

(1) Registered investment companies are classified as available-for-sale securities and are valued using quoted prices in active markets multiplied by the number of shares owned.

The Company has not elected to carry its long-term debt at fair value. The carrying value of the long-term debt represents amortized cost. The Company assesses the fair value of its long-term debt based on quoted market prices if available, and if not, an estimate of interest rates available to the Company for debt with similar features, the Company’s current credit rating and spreads applicable to the Company. The fair value of the long-term debt would be a Level 2 liability if the long-term debt was measured at fair value on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. The following table summarizes the carrying value and estimated fair value of the long-term debt as of March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively:

	2014				2013
	Carrying Value		Estimated Fair Value		Carrying Value		Estimated Fair Value

Business Combinations [Abstract]

Acquisitions

Acquisitions:

In the first quarter of 2014, the Company acquired the net assets of Inovatus, LLC for approximately $4,000. The assets primarily consisted of software and are embedded in our existing models focusing on reducing fraud and premium leakage for personal auto insurance carriers. The technology is included in the Company's Decision Analytics segment as part of its solutions to leverage data and analytics to help insurance companies improve results.

2014 Pending Acquisition

In January 2014, the Company entered into an agreement to acquire 100 percent of the stock of Eagleview Technology Corporation (“EVT”), the parent company of Pictometry International Corp. and Eagle View Technologies, Inc., for a net cash purchase price of $650,000, which will be funded by the Company's operating cash and borrowings from the senior unsecured Syndicated Revolving Credit Facility (the "Credit Facility"). EVT is a provider of geo-referenced aerial image capture and visual-centric data analytics and solutions to insurers, contractors, government, and commercial customers in the United States. This acquisition is expected to advance the Company's position in the imagery analytics market, adding new municipal and commercial customers. The transaction is expected to support the aerial imagery solution development in the Company's Decision Analytics segment. The purchase price to be paid will be adjusted subsequent to close to reflect final balances of certain working capital accounts and other closing adjustments. The closing of the transaction is subject to the completion of customary closing conditions, including receipt of regulatory and shareholder approvals. On March 28, 2014, the Company received a request for additional information (the “Second Request”) from the Federal Trade Commission under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976.  The Company is responding to the Second Request and presently expects the transaction to close during the third quarter of 2014. 

Acquisition Escrows

Pursuant to the related acquisition agreements, the Company has funded various escrow accounts to satisfy pre-acquisition indemnity and tax claims arising subsequent to the acquisition dates, as well as a portion of the contingent payments. At March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the current portion of the escrows amounted to $27,504 and $27,967, respectively, and there was no noncurrent portion amount of the escrow in either period. The current portion of the escrows has been included in “Other current assets” in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Goodwill and Intangible Assets

Goodwill and Intangible Assets:

The following is a summary of the change in goodwill from December 31, 2013 through March 31, 2014, both in total and as allocated to the Company’s operating segments:

	Risk Assessment		Decision Analytics			Total
Goodwill at December 31, 2013 (1)	$	55,555	$	1,126,126		$	1,181,681
Current year acquisitions		—		2,995			2,995
Sale of discontinued operations		—		(302	)		(302	)
Goodwill at March 31, 2014 (1)	$	55,555	$	1,128,819		$	1,184,374

______________________

(1) These balances are net of accumulated impairment charges of $3,244 that occurred prior to December 31, 2011.

Goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives are subject to impairment testing annually as of June 30, or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be fully recoverable. Goodwill impairment testing compares the carrying value of each reporting unit to its fair value. If the fair value of the reporting unit exceeds the carrying value of the net assets, including goodwill assigned to that reporting unit, goodwill is not impaired. If the carrying value of the reporting unit’s net assets including goodwill exceeds the fair value of the reporting unit, then the Company will determine the implied fair value of the reporting unit’s goodwill. If the carrying value of a reporting unit’s goodwill exceeds its implied fair value, then an impairment loss is recorded for the difference between the carrying amount and the implied fair value of goodwill. The Company completed the required annual impairment test as of June 30, 2013, which resulted in no impairment of goodwill. There were no goodwill impairment indicators after the date of the last annual impairment test.

The Company’s intangible assets and related accumulated amortization consisted of the following:

	Weighted Average Useful Life	Cost		Accumulated Amortization			Net

Pension and Postretirement Benefits

Pension and Postretirement Benefits:

The Company maintained a frozen qualified defined benefit pension plan for certain of its employees through membership in the Pension Plan for Insurance Organizations (the “Pension Plan”), a multiple-employer trust. The Company has applied a cash balance formula to determine future benefits. Under the cash balance formula, each participant has an account, which is credited annually based on salary rates determined by years of service, as well as the interest earned on the previous year-end cash balance. The Company also has a frozen non-qualified supplemental cash balance plan (“SERP”) for certain employees. The SERP is funded from the general assets of the Company.

The Company also provides certain healthcare and life insurance benefits to certain qualifying active and retired employees. The Postretirement Health and Life Insurance Plan (the “Postretirement Plan”), which has been frozen, is contributory, requiring participants to pay a stated percentage of the premium for coverage.

The components of net periodic (benefit) cost for the three months ended March 31, are summarized below:

	Pension Plan and SERP						Postretirement Plan
	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2014			2013			2014			2013
Interest cost	$	4,813		$	4,427		$	163		$	150

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In March 2013, the Financial Accounting Standard Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2013-05, Parent’s Accounting for the Cumulative Translation Adjustment upon Derecognition of Certain Subsidiaries or Groups of Assets within a Foreign Entity or of an Investment in a Foreign Entity (“ASU No. 2013-05”). Under ASU No. 2013-05, an entity is required to release any related cumulative translation adjustment into net income upon cessation to have a controlling financial interest in a subsidiary or group of assets within a foreign entity. ASU 2013-05 is effective prospectively for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2013. ASU No. 2013-05 was adopted by the Company on January 1, 2014. The adoption of ASU No. 2013-05 did not have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

In July 2013, the FASB issued ASU No. 2013-11, Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit When a Net Operating Loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss, or a Tax Credit Carryforward Exists (“ASU No. 2013-11”).  Under ASU No. 2013-11, an unrecognized tax benefit should be presented as a reduction to a deferred tax asset for a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward, with the exception that these unrecognized tax benefits are not available at the reporting date to settle any additional income taxes that would result from the disallowance of a tax position or the tax law.  An additional exception applies when the tax law does not require the entity to use, and the entity does not intend to use, the deferred tax asset for such purpose, then the unrecognized tax benefit should be presented as a liability and should not be combined with deferred tax assets.  ASU No. 2013-11 is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2013. The Company adopted the standard on January 1, 2014.  The adoption of ASU No. 2013-11 did not have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

In April 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-08, Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity (“ASU No. 2014-08”).  Under ASU No. 2014-08, a disposal of a component of an entity or a group of components of an entity is required to be reported in discontinued operations if the disposal represents a strategic shift that has (or will have) a major effect on an entity’s operations and financial results.  The amendments in this ASU further require additional disclosures on discontinued operations in the financial statements.  ASU No. 2014-08 is effective prospectively for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2014.  Early adoption is permitted, but only for disposals (or classifications as held-for-sale) that have not been reported in the financial statements previously issued.  The Company has elected not to early adopt and will assess the impact of this standard when applicable circumstances are required to be reported in discontinued operations under the existing guidance and this ASU.

Investments

In addition to the available-for-sale securities above, the Company has equity investments in non-public companies in which the Company acquired non-controlling interests and for which no readily determinable market value exists. These securities were accounted for under the cost method in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 323-10-25, The Equity Method of Accounting for Investments in Common Stock. At March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the carrying value of such securities was $8,487 and $3,602, respectively, and has been included in “Other assets” in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Business Combinations

Acquisition Escrows

Pursuant to the related acquisition agreements, the Company has funded various escrow accounts to satisfy pre-acquisition indemnity and tax claims arising subsequent to the acquisition dates, as well as a portion of the contingent payments. At March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the current portion of the escrows amounted to $27,504 and $27,967, respectively, and there was no noncurrent portion amount of the escrow in either period. The current portion of the escrows has been included in “Other current assets” in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information

ASC 280-10, Disclosures About Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information (“ASC 280-10”), establishes standards for reporting information about operating segments. ASC 280-10 requires that a public business enterprise report financial and descriptive information about its reportable operating segments.

Operating segments are components of an enterprise for which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. The Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer is identified as the CODM as defined by ASC 280-10. To align with the internal management of the Company’s business operations based on service offerings, the Company is organized into the following two operating segments, which are also the Company’s reportable segments:

Decision Analytics: The Company develops solutions that its customers use to analyze the three key processes in managing risk: ‘prediction of loss’, ‘detection and prevention of fraud’ and ‘quantification of loss’. The Company’s combination of algorithms and analytic methods incorporates its proprietary data to generate solutions. In most cases, the Company’s customers integrate the solutions into their models, formulas or underwriting criteria in order to predict potential loss events, ranging from hurricanes and earthquakes to unanticipated healthcare claims. The Company develops catastrophe and extreme event models and offers solutions covering natural and man-made risks, including acts of terrorism. The Company also develops solutions that allow customers to quantify costs after loss events occur. Fraud solutions include data on claim histories, analysis of claims to find emerging patterns of fraud, and identification of suspicious claims in the insurance and healthcare sectors. The Company discloses revenue within this segment based on the industry vertical groupings of insurance, financial services, healthcare and specialized markets.

Risk Assessment: The Company is the leading provider of statistical, actuarial and underwriting data for the U.S. P&C insurance industry. The Company’s databases include cleansed and standardized records describing premiums and losses in insurance transactions, casualty and property risk attributes for commercial buildings and their occupants and fire suppression capabilities of municipalities. The Company uses this data to create policy language and proprietary risk classifications that are industry standards and to generate prospective loss cost estimates used to price insurance policies.

Related Party Disclosures

The Company considers its Class A stockholders that own more than 5.0% of the outstanding common stock to be related parties as defined within ASC 850, Related Party Disclosures. As of March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the Company had no related parties owning more than 5.0% of its common stock.

Equity Compensation Plans

Equity Compensation Plans:

All of the Company’s outstanding stock options and restricted stock are covered under the 2013 Incentive Plan, 2009 Incentive Plan or the 1996 Incentive Plan. Awards under the 2013 Incentive Plan may include one or more of the following types: (i) stock options (both nonqualified and incentive stock options), (ii) stock appreciation rights, (iii) restricted stock, (iv) restricted stock units, (v) performance awards (vi) other share based awards, and (vii) cash. Employees, directors and consultants are eligible for awards under the 2013 Incentive Plan. The Company issued common stock under these plans from the Company’s treasury shares. On May 15, 2013, the Company’s shareholders approved the 2013 Incentive Plan. There are 15,700,000 shares of common stock available for issuance under the 2013 Incentive Plan. Shares subject to awards granted subsequent to March 15, 2013, whether under the 2013 Incentive Plan or the 2009 Incentive Plan, with certain exceptions, will reduce the number of shares available for issuance under the 2013 Incentive Plan. As of March 31, 2014, there were 14,372,174 shares of common stock reserved and available for future issuance under the 2013 Incentive Plan. Cash received from stock option exercises for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013 was $7,804 and $12,455, respectively.

On April 1, 2014, the Company granted 1,144,934 nonqualified stock options and 227,794 shares of restricted stock to key employees. The nonqualified stock options have an exercise price equal to the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the grant date, with a ten-year contractual term and a service vesting period of four years. The fair value of the restricted stock is determined using the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the grant date and has a service vesting period of four years. The Company recognizes the expense of the restricted stock ratably over the vesting period. The restricted stock is not assignable or transferable until it becomes vested.

The expected term for the stock options granted was estimated based on studies of historical experience and projected exercise behavior. The risk-free interest rate is based on the yield of U.S. Treasury zero coupon securities with a maturity equal to the expected term of the equity award. The volatility factor for stock options granted prior to 2014 was based on the average volatility of the Company’s peers, calculated using historical daily closing prices over the most recent period that is commensurate with the expected term of the stock option award. The expected dividend yield was based on the Company’s expected annual dividend rate on the date of grant.

A summary of the stock options outstanding as of December 31, 2013 and March 31, 2014 and changes during the interim period are presented below:

	Number of Options		Weighted Average Exercise Price		Aggregate Intrinsic Value
Outstanding at December 31, 2013	9,235,320		$	26.67	$	360,611
Exercised	(445,911	)	$	18.07	$	20,158
Cancelled or expired	(4,458	)	$	44.06
Outstanding at March 31, 2014	8,784,951		$	27.10	$	288,664
Stock options exercisable at March 31, 2014	6,793,102		$	21.42	$	261,837
Stock options exercisable at December 31, 2013	7,169,089		$	20.98	$	320,766

Intrinsic value for stock options is calculated based on the exercise price of the underlying awards and the quoted price of Verisk common stock as of the reporting date. In accordance with ASC 718, Stock Compensation, excess tax benefit from exercised stock options and restricted stock lapsed is recorded as an increase to additional paid-in capital and a corresponding reduction in income taxes payable. This tax benefit is calculated as the excess of the intrinsic value of options exercised and restricted stock lapsed in excess of compensation recognized for financial reporting purposes. The amount of the tax benefit that has been realized, as a result of those excess tax benefits, is presented as a financing cash inflow within the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of cash flows. For the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, the Company recorded excess tax benefits of $7,006 and $16,706, respectively. The Company realized $0 and $36,128 of tax benefit within the Company’s quarterly tax payments through March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

The Company estimates expected forfeitures of equity awards at the date of grant and recognizes compensation expense only for those awards that the Company expects to vest. The forfeiture assumption is ultimately adjusted to the actual forfeiture rate. Changes in the forfeiture assumptions may impact the total amount of expense ultimately recognized over the requisite service period and may impact the timing of expense recognized over the requisite service period.

A summary of the status of the restricted stock awarded under the 2013 Incentive Plan as of December 31, 2013 and March 31, 2014 and changes during the interim period is presented below:

	Number of Shares		Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value Per Share
Outstanding at December 31, 2013	396,749		$	52.82
Vested	(17,955	)	$	36.96
Forfeited	(769	)	$	51.74
Outstanding at March 31, 2014	378,025		$	52.75

As of March 31, 2014, there was $33,410 of total unrecognized compensation costs, exclusive of the impact of vesting upon retirement eligibility, related to nonvested share-based compensation arrangements granted under the 2009 and 2013 Incentive Plans. That cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 2.38 years. As of March 31, 2014, there were 1,991,849 and 378,025 nonvested stock options and restricted stock, respectively, of which 1,524,383 and 273,084 are expected to vest.
