Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

NOTE 1 — ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Description of Business

Altisource Portfolio Solutions S.A., together with its subsidiaries (which may be referred to as “Altisource,” the “Company,” “we,” “us” or “our”), is a premier marketplace and transaction solutions provider for the real estate, mortgage and consumer debt industries offering both distribution and content. We leverage proprietary business process, vendor and electronic payment management software and behavioral science based analytics to improve outcomes for marketplace participants.

We are incorporated under the laws of Luxembourg and are publicly traded on the NASDAQ Global Select Market under the symbol “ASPS.” 

We conduct our operations through three reportable segments: Mortgage Services, Financial Services and Technology Services.  In addition, we report our corporate related expenditures and eliminations separately (see Note 20 for a description of our business segments).

Basis of Presentation

The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) Regulation S-X. Accordingly, these financial statements do not include all of the information and notes required by GAAP for complete consolidated financial statements. In the opinion of management, the interim data includes all normal recurring adjustments considered necessary to fairly state the results for the interim periods presented. The preparation of interim condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP 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 our interim condensed consolidated financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Intercompany and inter-segment transactions and accounts have been eliminated in consolidation. Certain prior year amounts reported by the Mortgage Services and Technology Services segments have been reclassified to conform with the current year presentation.

The Mortgage Partnership of America, L.L.C. (“MPA”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Altisource, serves as the manager of Best Partners Mortgage Cooperative, Inc. doing business as Lenders One Mortgage Cooperative (“Lenders One”). MPA provides services to Lenders One under a management agreement that ends on December 31, 2025. The management agreement between MPA and Lenders One^® members, pursuant to which MPA is the management company of Lenders One, represents a variable interest in a variable interest entity. MPA is the primary beneficiary of Lenders One as it has the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact Lenders One’s economic performance and the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits from Lenders One. As a result, Lenders One is presented in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements on a consolidated basis with the interests of the members reflected as non-controlling interests. As of March 31, 2015, Lenders One had total assets of $8.8 million and total liabilities of $7.7 million.  As of December 31, 2014, Lenders One had total assets of $7.7 million and total liabilities of $6.7 million.

These interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto contained in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014, filed with the SEC on March 2, 2015, which contains a summary of our significant accounting policies. Certain footnote detail in the Form 10-K is omitted from the information included herein.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)

Correction of Immaterial Errors

As previously disclosed, during 2014 we determined that while we properly identified our related parties in previously issued financial statements, disclosures of certain immaterial related party expenses were omitted. We corrected the previously presented disclosures of related party expenses in Note 2 - Transactions with Related Parties and on the face of the condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2014. The impact of correcting these items in the notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements had the effect of:

• increasing the amounts disclosed as related party cost of revenue from Ocwen Financial Corporation and its subsidiaries (“Ocwen”) by $7.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2014;

• increasing the amounts disclosed as selling, general and administrative expenses from Ocwen billings to Altisource by $0.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2014;

• decreasing the amounts disclosed as selling, general and administrative expenses from Altisource billings to Ocwen by $0.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2014; and

• decreasing the amounts disclosed as selling, general and administrative expenses from Altisource billings to Altisource Asset Management Corporation (“AAMC”) by $0.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2014.

Correcting these items on the face of the condensed consolidated statements of operations resulted in the disclosure of related party cost of revenue of $7.3 million and a decrease in previously disclosed related party selling, general and administrative expenses by $1.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2014.

In accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 250, Accounting Changes and Error Corrections, the Company evaluated the effect of the disclosure and presentation errors on its previously issued annual and quarterly financial statements, both qualitatively and quantitatively, and concluded that the related party disclosures in the Company’s previously issued annual and quarterly financial statements are not materially misstated.

Fair Value Measurements

Fair value is defined as an exit price, representing the amount that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The three-tier hierarchy for inputs used in measuring fair value, which prioritizes the inputs used in the methodologies of measuring fair value for assets and liabilities, is as follows:

Level 1 — Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities

Level 2 — Observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1

Level 3 — Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of assets or liabilities.

Financial assets and financial liabilities are classified based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurements. Our assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurements requires judgment, and may affect the valuation of the assets and liabilities being measured and their placement within the fair value hierarchy.

Future Adoption of New Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2014, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contractswith Customers. This standard establishes a single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and supersedes most current revenue recognition guidance. The core principle of the new standard is an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. This new standard will be effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within that reporting period. Early adoption is not permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact this new guidance may have on its results of operations and financial position.

In February 2015, FASB issued ASU No. 2015-02, Consolidation: Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis. This standard addresses the consolidation of certain legal entities relative to current requirements under GAAP of a reporting entity to consolidate another legal entity in situations in which the reporting entity’s contractual rights do not give it the ability to act primarily on its own behalf, the reporting entity does not hold a majority of the legal entity’s voting rights or the reporting entity is not exposed to a majority of the legal entity’s economic benefits or obligations. This standard will be effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2015, including interim periods within that reporting period. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. If an entity early adopts the standard in an interim period, any adjustments should be reflected as

ALTISOURCE PORTFOLIO SOLUTIONS S.A.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)

of the beginning of the year that includes that interim period. The Company is currently evaluating the impact this new guidance may have on its results of operations and financial position.

In April 2015, FASB issued ASU No. 2015-03, Interest-Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30): Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs. This revised standard changes the presentation of debt issuance costs in financial statements. Under the ASU, an entity presents such costs in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the related debt liability rather than as an asset. This standard will be effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2015, including interim periods within that reporting period. Early adoption is permitted for financial statements that have not been previously issued. The Company does not expect the adoption of this standard to have a material impact on its results of operations or financial position.

NOTE 2 — TRANSACTIONS WITH RELATED PARTIES

Through January 16, 2015, William C. Erbey served as our Chairman as well as the Executive Chairman of Ocwen and Chairman of each of Home Loan Servicing Solutions, Ltd. (“HLSS”), Altisource Residential Corporation (“Residential”) and AAMC. Effective January 16, 2015, Mr. Erbey stepped down as the Executive Chairman of Ocwen and Chairman of each of Altisource, HLSS, Residential and AAMC and is no longer a member of the Board of Directors for any of these companies. As of March 31, 2015, Mr. Erbey owned or controlled approximately 30% of the common stock of Altisource, approximately 14% of the common stock of Ocwen, approximately 1% of the common stock of HLSS, approximately 4% of the common stock of Residential and approximately 28% of the common stock of AAMC. As of March 31, 2015, Mr. Erbey also held 857,543 options to purchase Altisource common stock (all of which were exercisable), 3,572,626 options to purchase Ocwen common stock (3,322,626 of which were exercisable) and 85,755 options to purchase AAMC common stock (all of which were exercisable). Accordingly, as a result of Mr. Erbey’s positions and the continuing common ownership, these companies have been and are related parties of Altisource.

Ocwen

Revenue

Ocwen is our largest customer. Ocwen purchases certain mortgage services and technology services from us under the terms of the master services agreements and amendments to the master services agreements (collectively, the “Service Agreements”) with terms extending through August 2025. The Service Agreements, among other things, contain a “most favored nation” provision and the parties to the Service Agreements have the right to renegotiate pricing. The Service Agreements also prohibit Ocwen from establishing fee-based businesses that would directly or indirectly compete with Altisource’s services with respect to the Homeward Residential, Inc. and Residential Capital, LLC portfolios. In addition, Ocwen purchases certain origination services from Altisource under an agreement that extends through January 2017. We settle amounts with Ocwen on a daily, weekly or monthly basis depending upon the nature of the service and when the service is provided.

Related party revenue primarily consists of revenue earned directly from Ocwen and revenue earned from the loans serviced by Ocwen when Ocwen designates us as the service provider. Related party revenue from Ocwen as a percentage of segment and consolidated revenue was as follows for the three months ended March 31:

	2015	2014
Mortgage Services	63%	69%
Financial Services	25%	26%
Technology Services	47%	35%
Consolidated revenue	59%	61%

We record revenue we earn from Ocwen under the Service Agreements at rates we believe to be comparable market rates as we believe they are consistent with the fees we charge to other customers and/or fees charged by our competitors for comparable services.

We earn additional revenue on the portfolios serviced by Ocwen that is not considered related party revenue when a party other than Ocwen selects Altisource as the service provider. For the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, we recognized revenue of $53.5 million and $54.7 million, respectively, on the portfolios serviced by Ocwen that is not considered related party revenue.

ALTISOURCE PORTFOLIO SOLUTIONS S.A.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)

Cost of Revenue

At times, we use Ocwen’s contractors and/or employees to support Altisource related services. Ocwen generally bills us for these contractors and/or employees based on their fully-allocated cost. Additionally, through March 31, 2015, we purchased certain data relating to Ocwen’s servicing portfolio in connection with a Data Access and Services Agreement. The Data Access and Services Agreement could be renegotiated and could be canceled by either Altisource or Ocwen with 90 days prior written notice. Based upon our previously provided notice, the Data Access and Services Agreement was terminated effective March 31, 2015. Ocwen billed us a per asset fee for this data. For the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, Ocwen billed us $10.3 million and $7.3 million, respectively. These amounts are reflected as a component of cost of revenue in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

We provide certain other services to Ocwen and Ocwen provides certain other services to us in connection with Support Services Agreements. Prior to January 1, 2015, these services included such areas as human resources, vendor management, vendor oversight, corporate services, operational effectiveness, quality assurance, quantitative analytics, tax and treasury. For the three months ended March 31, 2015, these services included vendor management, corporate services and facility charges. The Support Services Agreement with Ocwen Mortgage Servicing, Inc. extends through September 2018 with automatic one-year renewals thereafter. The Support Services Agreement with Ocwen Financial Corporation extends through October 2017 with automatic one-year renewals thereafter. Billings for these services were generally based on the fully-allocated cost of providing the service based on an estimate of the time and expense of providing the service or estimates thereof. For the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, we billed Ocwen $0.6 million and $1.0 million, respectively, and Ocwen billed us $1.6 million and $1.2 million, respectively. These amounts are reflected as a component of selling, general and administrative expenses in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

HLSS

HLSS is a publicly traded company whose primary objective is the acquisition of mortgage servicing rights and related servicing advances, loans held for investment and other residential mortgage related assets. As of March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, HLSS owned, for a significant portion of Ocwen-serviced non-government-sponsored enterprise loans, (1) the rights to receive the servicing fees that Ocwen is entitled to receive and (2) associated servicing advances.

Under a support services agreement, we provide HLSS certain finance, human resources, tax and facilities services and we sell information technology services to HLSS. We billed HLSS $0.6 million and $0.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. Of these amounts, $0.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2015 (no comparative amount in 2014) is reflected in revenue in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and, for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, $0.1 million and $0.2 million, respectively, is reflected as a component of selling, general and administrative expenses in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

On February 22, 2015, HLSS and New Residential Investment Corp. (“NRZ”) announced they entered into a definitive agreement whereby NRZ would acquire all of the outstanding shares of HLSS, subject to shareholder approval and other customary closing conditions.

From March 10, 2015 to March 17, 2015, we purchased 1.6 million shares of HLSS common stock for $30.0 million in the open market. See Note 5.

On April 6, 2015, HLSS and NRZ announced they terminated the merger agreement announced on February 22, 2015 and entered into a purchase agreement under which NRZ acquired substantially all of the assets and assumed substantially all of the liabilities of HLSS. The asset purchase was consummated concurrently with signing of the purchase agreement. Furthermore, NRZ separately agreed to a multi-year extension of the servicing contracts with Ocwen. HLSS also announced that it adopted a plan of complete liquidation and dissolution. Additional information is contained in HLSS’ public filings.

Residential and AAMC

Residential and AAMC were separated from Altisource on December 21, 2012 and their equity was distributed to our shareholders on December 24, 2012 and they are each separate publicly traded companies. Residential is focused on acquiring and managing single family rental properties by acquiring sub-performing and non-performing residential mortgage loans as well as single family

ALTISOURCE PORTFOLIO SOLUTIONS S.A.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)

homes at or following the foreclosure sale throughout the United States. AAMC’s primary business is to provide asset management and certain corporate governance services to institutional investors. Its primary client currently is Residential.

For purposes of governing certain ongoing relationships between Altisource, Residential and AAMC, we entered into certain agreements with Residential and AAMC. We have agreements to provide Residential with renovation management, lease management, property management and REO asset management services. In addition, we have agreements with Residential and AAMC to provide services such as finance, human resources, facilities, technology and insurance risk management. Further, we have separate agreements for certain services related to income tax matters, trademark licenses and technology products and services.

For the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, we billed Residential $6.8 million and $0.8 million, respectively, under these services agreements. These amounts are reflected in revenue in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. This excludes revenue from services we provide to Residential’s loans serviced by Ocwen where we are retained by Ocwen. That revenue is included in Ocwen related party revenue. For the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, we billed AAMC $0.2 million and $0.3 million, respectively, under the services agreements. Of these amounts, less than $0.1 million in each period is reflected in revenue in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and, for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, $0.2 million and $0.3 million, respectively, is reflected as a component of selling, general and administrative expenses in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

NOTE 3— ACQUISITIONS

Mortgage Builder Acquisition

On September 12, 2014, we acquired certain assets and assumed certain liabilities of Mortgage Builder Software, Inc. (“Mortgage Builder”) pursuant to a Purchase and Sale Agreement dated July 18, 2014 (the “Purchase and Sale Agreement”). Mortgage Builder is a provider of residential mortgage loan origination and servicing software systems. Pursuant to the terms of the Purchase and Sale Agreement, we paid $15.7 million at closing in cash (net of closing working capital adjustments). Additionally, the Purchase and Sale Agreement provides for the payment of up to $7.0 million in potential additional consideration (the “MB Earn-Out”) based on Adjusted Revenue (as defined in the Purchase and Sale Agreement) in the three consecutive 12-month periods following closing. At closing, we estimated the fair value of the MB Earn-Out to be $1.6 million, determined based on the present value of future estimated MB Earn-Out payments. The Mortgage Builder acquisition is not material in relation to the Company’s results of operations or financial position.

The preliminary allocation of the purchase price is as follows:

Owners Acquisition

On November 21, 2014, we acquired certain assets and assumed certain liabilities of Owners Advantage, LLC (“Owners”). Owners is a self-directed online real estate marketplace. We paid $19.8 million at closing in cash plus contingent consideration of up to an additional $7.0 million over two years (“Owners Earn Out”), based on Adjusted Revenue (as defined in the purchase agreement). At closing, we estimated the fair value of the Owners Earn Out to be $1.9 million determined based on the present value of future estimated Owners Earn Out payments. The Owners acquisition is not material in relation to the Company’s results of operations or financial position.

NOTE 4 — FAIR VALUE

Fair Value Measurements on a Recurring Basis

Available for sale securities are carried at fair value and consist of 1.6 million shares of HLSS common stock as of March 31, 2015 (no comparative amount in 2014). As of March 31, 2015, the fair value of available for sale securities was $26.7 million (1,613,125 shares at $16.54 per share) (no comparative amount in 2014). Available for sale securities are measured using Level 1 inputs as these securities have quoted prices in active markets.

Liabilities for acquisition related contingent consideration are carried at fair value and were recorded in connection with the acquisitions of Equator, LLC in 2013 and Mortgage Builder and Owners in 2014. As of March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the fair value of acquisition related contingent consideration was $11.8 million and $11.6 million, respectively (see Note 13). We measured the liabilities for acquisition related contingent consideration using Level 3 inputs as they are determined based on the present value of future estimated payments, which included sensitivities pertaining to discount rates and financial projections.

There were no transfers between different levels during the periods presented.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The following table presents the carrying amount and estimated fair value of financial instruments held by the Company at March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014 that are not carried at fair value. The fair values are estimated using market information and what the Company believes to be appropriate valuation methodologies under GAAP:

	March 31, 2015								December 31, 2014
(in thousands)	Carrying Amount		Fair Value						Carrying Amount		Fair Value
			Level 1		Level 2		Level 3				Level 1		Level 2		Level 3

Long-term debt	590,057		—		430,742		—		591,543		—		467,319		—

Our financial assets and liabilities primarily include cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash and long-term debt. Cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash are carried at amounts that approximate their fair value due to the short-term nature of these instruments and were measured using Level 1 inputs. The fair value of our long-term debt is based on quoted market prices. We do not believe that there is an active market for our debt, based on the frequency of trading. Therefore, the quoted prices are considered Level 2 inputs.

NOTE 5 — AVAILABLE FOR SALE SECURITIES - INVESTMENT IN HLSS

During the three months ended March 31, 2015, we purchased 1.6 million shares of HLSS common stock for $30.0 million in the open market (1,613,125 shares at an average price per share of $18.58). This investment is classified as available for sale and reflected at fair value at the balance sheet date ($26.7 million as of March 31, 2015) (no comparative amount in 2014). Unrealized gains and losses on available for sale securities are reflected in other comprehensive income, unless there is an impairment that is other than temporary. In the event that a decline in market value is other than temporary, we record a charge to earnings and a new cost basis in the investment is established. Based on HLSS’ sale of substantially all of its assets and plan of complete liquidation and dissolution (see Note 2), we determined that our investment in HLSS is other than temporarily impaired. Accordingly, we recognized an other than temporary impairment loss on HLSS equity securities of $3.3 million in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations during the three months ended March 31, 2015. This amount reflects the difference between the cost and fair value of the HLSS equity securities as of March 31, 2015 (based on 1,613,125 shares at $16.54 per share).

On November 27, 2012, Altisource Solutions S.à r.l., a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, entered into a senior secured term loan agreement with Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent, and certain lenders. The Company and certain wholly-owned subsidiaries are guarantors of the term loan (collectively, the “Guarantors”). We subsequently amended the senior secured term loan agreement to increase the principal amount of the senior secured term loan and, among other changes, re-establish the $200.0 million incremental term loan facility accordion, lower the interest rate, extend the maturity date by approximately one year and increase the maximum amount of Restricted Junior Payments (as defined in the senior secured term loan agreement; other

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)

capitalized terms, unless defined herein, are defined in the senior secured term loan agreement). As of March 31, 2015, $587.3 million, net of unamortized discount of $2.8 million, was outstanding under the senior secured term loan agreement, as amended, compared to $588.6 million, net of unamortized discount of $2.9 million, as of December 31, 2014.

After giving effect to the third amendment entered into on August 1, 2014, the term loan must be repaid in equal consecutive quarterly principal installments of $1.5 million, which commenced on September 30, 2014, with the balance due at maturity. All amounts outstanding under the senior secured term loan agreement will become due on the earlier of (i) December 9, 2020 and (ii) the date on which the loans are declared to be due and owing by the administrative agent at the request (or with the consent) of the Required Lenders upon the occurrence of any event of default under the senior secured term loan agreement.

In addition to the scheduled principal payments, the term loan is (with certain exceptions) subject to mandatory prepayment upon issuances of debt, casualty and condemnation events and sales of assets, as well as from a percentage of Consolidated Excess Cash Flow if the leverage ratio is greater than 3.00 to 1.00.  No mandatory prepayments were owed for the three months ended March 31, 2015. 

The term loan bears interest at rates based upon, at our option, the Adjusted Eurodollar Rate or the Base Rate.  Adjusted Eurodollar Rate loans bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the sum of (i) the greater of (x) the Adjusted Eurodollar Rate for the applicable interest period and (y) 1.00% plus (ii) a 3.50% margin.  Base Rate loans bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the sum of (i) the greater of (x) the Base Rate and (y) 2.00% plus (ii) a 2.50% margin. The interest rate at March 31, 2015 was 4.50%.

Term loan payments are guaranteed by the Guarantors and are secured by a pledge of all equity interests of certain subsidiaries as well as a lien on substantially all of the assets of Altisource Solutions S.à r.l. and the Guarantors, subject to certain exceptions.

The senior secured term loan agreement includes covenants that restrict or limit, among other things, our ability to: create liens and encumbrances; incur additional indebtedness; sell, transfer or dispose of assets; make Restricted Junior Payments including share repurchases; change lines of business; amend material debt agreements or other material contracts; engage in certain transactions with affiliates; enter into sale/leaseback transactions; grant negative pledges or agree to such other restrictions relating to subsidiary dividends and distributions; make changes to its fiscal year and engage in mergers and consolidations.

The senior secured term loan agreement contains certain events of default, including (i) failure to pay principal when due or interest or any other amount owing on any other obligation under the senior secured term loan agreement within five days of becoming due, (ii) material incorrectness of representations and warranties when made, (iii) breach of covenants, (iv) failure to pay principal or interest on any other debt that equals or exceeds $40.0 million when due, (v) default on any other debt that equals or exceeds $40.0 million that causes, or gives the holder or holders of such debt the ability to cause, an acceleration of such debt, (vi) occurrence of a Change of Control, (vii) bankruptcy and insolvency events, (viii) entry by a court of one or more judgments against us in an amount in excess of $40.0 million that remain unbonded, undischarged or unstayed for a certain number of days after the entry thereof, (ix) the occurrence of certain ERISA events and (x) the failure of certain Loan Documents to be in full force and effect.  If any event of default occurs and is not cured within applicable grace periods set forth in the senior secured term loan agreement or waived, all loans and other obligations could become due and immediately payable and the facility could be terminated.

At March 31, 2015, debt issuance costs were $7.7 million, net of $2.5 million of accumulated amortization.  At December 31, 2014, debt issuance costs were $8.1 million, net of $2.2 million of accumulated amortization. Debt issuance costs are included in other assets in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Interest expense on the term loans, including amortization of debt issuance costs and the net debt discount, totaled $7.2 million and $4.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

NOTE 14 — SHAREHOLDERS’ EQUITY AND SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION

Stock Repurchase Plan

On February 28, 2014, our shareholders approved a new stock repurchase program, which replaced the previous stock repurchase program. Under the new program, we are authorized to purchase up to 3.4 million shares of our common stock, based on a limit of 15% of the outstanding shares of common stock on the date of approval, in the open market, at a minimum price of $1.00 per share and a maximum price of $500.00 per share.  This is in addition to amounts previously purchased under the prior programs. From authorization of the previous programs through March 31, 2015, we have purchased approximately 6.4 million shares of our common stock in the open market at an average price of $77.69 per share.  We purchased 0.2 million shares of common stock at an average price of $23.44 per share during the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 0.3 million shares at an average price of $109.97 per share during the three months ended March 31, 2014. As of March 31, 2015, approximately 1.0 million shares of common stock remain available for repurchase under the new program. Our senior secured term loan limits the amount we can spend on share repurchases in any year and may prevent repurchases in certain circumstances. As of March 31, 2015, approximately $285 million was available to repurchase our common stock under our senior secured term loan.

Share-Based Compensation

We issue share-based awards in the form of stock options and certain other equity-based awards for certain employees and officers.  We recorded share-based compensation expense of $0.4 million and $0.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

Outstanding share-based compensation currently consists primarily of stock option grants that are a combination of service-based and market-based options.

Service-Based Options.  These options are granted at fair value on the date of grant. The options generally vest over four years with equal annual cliff-vesting and expire on the earlier of ten years after the date of grant or following termination of service. A total of 0.7 million service-based awards were outstanding at March 31, 2015.

Market-Based Options.  These option grants have two components, each of which vests only upon the achievement of certain criteria. The first component, which we refer to internally as “ordinary performance” grants, consists of two-thirds of the market-based grant and begins to vest if the stock price is at least double the exercise price, as long as the stock price realizes a compounded annual gain of at least 20% over the exercise price. The remaining third of the market-based options, which we refer to internally as “extraordinary performance” grants, begins to vest if the stock price is at least triple the exercise price, as long as the stock price realizes a compounded annual gain of at least 25% over the exercise price. The vesting schedule for all market-based awards is 25% upon achievement of the criteria and the remaining 75% in three equal annual installments. A total of 1.9 million market-based awards were outstanding at March 31, 2015.

The Company granted less than 0.1 million stock options (at a weighted average exercise price of $26.42 per share) during the three months ended March 31, 2015. There were no options granted during the three months ended March 31, 2014.

The fair value of the service-based options was determined using the Black-Scholes option pricing model and the fair value of the market-based options was determined using a lattice (binomial) model. The following assumptions were used to determine the fair value as of the grant date:

	Three months ended   March 31, 2015
	Black-Scholes		Binomial
Risk-free interest rate (%)	1.67	%	0.02% - 2.01%

NOTE 18 — EARNINGS PER SHARE

Basic earnings per share (“EPS”) is computed by dividing income available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period.  Diluted EPS reflects the assumed conversion of all dilutive securities using the treasury stock method.

Basic and diluted EPS are calculated as follows for the three months ended March 31:

(in thousands, except per share data)	2015		2014
Net income attributable to Altisource	$	3,698	$	39,631
Weighted average common shares outstanding, basic	20,172		22,509
Dilutive effect of stock options	823		2,153
Weighted average common shares outstanding, diluted	20,995		24,662
Earnings per share:
Basic	$	0.18	$	1.76
Diluted	$	0.18	$	1.61

For the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, 0.7 million options and less than 0.1 million options, respectively, that were anti-dilutive have been excluded from the computation of diluted EPS.  These options were anti-dilutive because their exercise price was greater than the average market price of our common stock. Also excluded from the computation of diluted EPS are 0.2 million options and less than 0.1 million options for each of the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively,

NOTE 19 — COMMITMENTS, CONTINGENCIES AND REGULATORY MATTERS

Litigation

From time to time, we are involved in legal and administrative proceedings arising in the course of our business.  We record a liability for these matters if an unfavorable outcome is probable and the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated, including expected insurance coverage.  For proceedings where the reasonable estimate of loss is a range, we record a best estimate of loss within the range.

On September 8, 2014, the West Palm Beach Firefighter’s Pension Fund filed a putative securities class action suit against Altisource and certain of its officers and directors in the United States District Court for the Southern District of Florida alleging violations of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Rule 10b-5 with regard to disclosures concerning pricing and transactions with related parties that allegedly inflated Altisource share prices. The court subsequently appointed the Pension Fund of the International Union of Painters and Allied Trades District Council 35 and the Annuity Fund of the International Union of Painters and Allied Trades District Council 35 as Lead Plaintiffs. On January 30, 2015, Lead Plaintiffs filed an amended class action complaint which adds Ocwen Financial Corporation as a defendant, and seeks a determination that the action may be maintained as a class action on behalf of purchasers of the Company’s securities between April 25, 2013 and December 21, 2014 and an unspecified amount of damages. Altisource intends to vigorously defend this lawsuit.

On February 11, 2015, W.A. Sokolowski, an alleged shareholder of Ocwen Financial Corporation, filed an amended shareholder derivative complaint in the United States District Court for the Southern District of Florida against Ocwen Financial Corporation, certain of its officers and directors, Altisource and other companies. The suit seeks recovery of an unspecified amount of damages on behalf of Ocwen for alleged breaches of fiduciary duty by Ocwen’s current and former officers and directors, which were allegedly aided and abetted by Altisource and other defendants. Altisource, which has not been served with the suit, intends to vigorously defend the lawsuit.

Altisource is unable to predict the outcomes of these lawsuits or reasonably estimate the potential loss, if any, arising from the suits, given that a motion to dismiss was filed but has not yet been adjudicated in the first case, Altisource has not been served in the second case, discovery has not commenced in either case and significant legal and factual issues remain to be determined in both cases.

In addition to the matters referenced above, we are involved in legal actions in the course of our business, some of which seek monetary damages. We do not believe that the outcome of these proceedings, both individually and in the aggregate, will have a material impact on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

Regulatory Matters

Our business is subject to regulation and oversight by federal, state and local governmental authorities. We periodically receive subpoenas, civil investigative demands or other requests for information from regulatory agencies in connection with their regulatory or investigative authority. We are currently responding to such inquiries from federal and state agencies relating to certain aspects of our business. We believe it is premature to predict the potential outcome or to estimate any potential financial impact in connection with these inquiries.

Ocwen Related Matters

Ocwen is our largest customer and 59% of our revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2015 was related party revenue from Ocwen. Additionally, 24% of our revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2015 was earned on the portfolios serviced by Ocwen, but is not considered related party revenue because a party other than Ocwen selects Altisource as the service provider. Ocwen has been and is subject to a number of pending federal and state regulatory investigations, inquiries and requests for information that have or could result in adverse regulatory actions against Ocwen. For example, as a result of various regulatory actions, Ocwen is (i) subject to an independent auditor’s review of compliance with California servicing laws and has agreed not to obtain any new servicing rights in California until the regulator is satisfied with future document requests, (ii) operating under the oversight of an on-site operations monitor imposed by New York Department of Financial Services (“NYDFS”), which is assessing the adequacy and effectiveness of Ocwen’s operations, including information technology systems, (iii) required to perform benchmarking pricing studies for transactions with related parties, which are subject to periodic review by the monitor imposed

20

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)

by the NYDFS and (iv) subject to requirements under an agreement with the Consumer Finance Protection Bureau and various states attorneys general and agencies that imposed specific servicing guidelines and oversight by an independent national monitor, who is investigating the reliability of information Ocwen has provided. In addition to these matters, Ocwen continues to be subject to other regulatory investigations, inquiries and requests for information and pending legal proceedings, and Ocwen may become subject to future federal and state regulatory investigations, inquiries and requests for information, any of which could also result in adverse regulatory or other actions against Ocwen.

As a result of these various difficulties faced by Ocwen, its debt and servicer ratings have been downgraded. Further, certain bondholders of Ocwen-serviced residential mortgage-backed securities (“RMBS”) alleged that Ocwen, as servicer of certain mortgage-backed securities trusts, defaulted on these servicing agreements.

The foregoing may have significant and varied effects on Ocwen’s business and our continuing relationships with Ocwen. For example, Ocwen may be required to alter the way it conducts business, including the parties it contracts with for services (including information technology services), it may be required to seek changes to its existing pricing structure with related parties or otherwise, it may lose or sell some or all of its non-GSE servicing rights or subservicing arrangements or may lose one or more of its state servicing licenses. Additional regulatory actions may impose additional restrictions on or require changes in Ocwen’s business that would require it to sell assets or change its business operations. Any or all of these effects could result in our eventual loss of Ocwen as a customer or a reduction in the volume of services they purchase from us or the loss of other customers.

If any of the following events occurred, Altisource’s revenue would be significantly lower and our results of operations would be materially adversely affected, including from the impairment or write-off of goodwill, intangible assets, property and equipment, other assets and accounts receivable:

• Altisource loses Ocwen as a customer or there is a significant reduction in the volume of services they purchase from us

• Ocwen loses or sells a significant portion or all of its non-GSE servicing rights or subservicing arrangements

• Ocwen loses its state servicing licenses in states with a significant number of loans in Ocwen’s servicing portfolio

• The contractual relationship between Ocwen and Altisource changes significantly or there are significant changes to our

pricing to Ocwen for services from which we generate material revenue

Management cannot predict the outcome of the Ocwen related matters or the impact they may have on Altisource. However, in the event these Ocwen related matters materially negatively impact Altisource, we believe the impact to Altisource would occur over an extended period of time and the variable nature of our cost structure allows us to realign our cost structure in line with remaining revenue.

In this regard, we have a plan that allows us to efficiently execute on this realignment. We believe that transfers of Ocwen’s servicing rights to a successor servicer(s) would take an extended period of time because of the approval required from many parties, including regulators, rating agencies, RMBS trustees, lenders and others. During this period of time, we believe we would continue to generate revenue from the services we provide to the portfolio. Additionally, we have several growth initiatives that focus on diversifying and growing our revenue and customer base. Our major growth initiatives include:

• Attracting new clients to our comprehensive default related businesses

• Growing our origination services and technology businesses

• Expanding our innovative online real estate marketplaces

• Growing our property management and renovation services businesses

We have an established sales and marketing strategy to support each of these initiatives.

Management believes our plans, together with current liquidity and cash flows from operations will be sufficient to meet working capital, capital expenditures, debt service and other cash needs for at least the next year. However, there can be no assurance that our plans would be successful or our operations would be profitable.

Escrow and Trust Balances

We hold customers’ assets in escrow and trust accounts at various financial institutions pending completion of certain real estate activities.  We also hold cash in trust accounts at various financial institutions where contractual obligations mandate maintaining dedicated bank accounts for Financial Services collections.  These amounts are held in escrow and trust accounts for limited periods of time and are not included in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.  Amounts held in escrow and trust accounts were $86.8 million and $62.5 million at March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively.

NOTE 20 — SEGMENT REPORTING

Our business segments are based upon our organizational structure, which focuses primarily on the services offered, and are consistent with the internal reporting used by our Chief Executive Officer (our Chief Operating Decision Maker) to evaluate operating performance and to assess the allocation of our resources.

We classify our businesses into three reportable segments. The Mortgage Services segment provides services that span the mortgage and real estate lifecycle and are typically outsourced by loan servicers, loan originators, investors and other sellers of single family homes. The Financial Services segment provides collection and customer relationship management services primarily to debt originators and servicers (e.g., credit card, auto lending, retail credit and mortgage) and the utility, insurance and hotel industries. The Technology Services segmentprovides a portfolio of software, data analytics and infrastructure management services that support the efficient and compliant management of mortgage and real estate activities and marketplace transactions across the lifecycle. In addition, Corporate Items and Eliminations include eliminations of transactions between the reportable segments, interest expense and costs related to corporate support functions including executive, finance, legal, compliance, human resources, vendor management, risk and operational effectiveness and marketing. Intercompany transactions primarily consist of information technology infrastructure services.

Financial information for our segments is as follows:

OVERVIEW

Our Business

When we refer to “we,” “us,” “our,” the “Company” or “Altisource” we mean Altisource Portfolio Solutions S.A., a Luxembourg société anonyme, or public limited company, and its wholly-owned subsidiaries.

We are a premier marketplace and transaction solutions provider for the real estate, mortgage and consumer debt industries offering both distribution and content. We leverage proprietary business process, vendor and electronic payment management software and behavioral science based analytics to improve outcomes for marketplace participants.

We classify our businesses into the following three reportable segments:

Mortgage Services: Provides services that span the mortgage and real estate lifecycle and are typically outsourced by loan servicers, loan originators, investors and other sellers of single family homes. We provide most of these services primarily for loan portfolios serviced by Ocwen. We also have longstanding relationships with commercial banks, insurance companies and mortgage bankers. Within the Mortgage Services segment, we provide the following services:

Asset management - Asset management services principally include property preservation, property inspection, real estate owned (“REO”) asset management, the Hubzu^® and Owners.com^® consumer real estate portals and real estate brokerage services. We also provide property management, lease management and renovation management services for single family rental properties.

Insurance services - Insurance services include an array of insurance services including pre-foreclosure, REO and refinance title searches, title insurance agency services, settlement and escrow services and loss draft claims processing. Prior to the November 11, 2014 discontinuation, we provided insurance program management and insurance brokerage services for REO and lender placed insurance companies.

Residential property valuation - Residential property valuation services principally include traditional appraisal products through our licensed appraisal management company and alternative valuation products, some of which are through our network of real estate professionals. We generally provide these services for residential loan servicers, residential lenders and investors in single family homes.

Default management services - Default management services principally include foreclosure trustee services for loan servicers and non-legal processing and related services for and under the supervision of foreclosure, bankruptcy and eviction attorneys.

Origination management services - Origination management services principally include Mortgage Partnership of America, L.L.C. (“MPA”) and our contract underwriting and quality control businesses. MPA serves as the manager of Best Partners Mortgage Cooperative, Inc., which is referred to as the Lenders One^® Mortgage Cooperative (“Lenders One”), a national alliance of independent mortgage bankers that provides its members with education and training along with revenue enhancing, cost reducing and market share expanding opportunities. We provide other origination related services in the residential property valuation business and insurance services businesses. In September 2014, we launched Best Partners Mortgage Brokers Cooperative, Inc., which is referred to as the Wholesale One^™ Mortgage Cooperative (“Wholesale One”), for the wholesale mortgage industry. Wholesale One will assist mortgage brokers and other third party originators with tools to improve their businesses. In April 2015, we launched a new cooperative, Best Partners Residential Investor Cooperative, Inc., which is referred to as Residential Investor One^™. Residential Investor One was formed to deliver savings and efficiencies to individual and institutional residential real estate investors.

Financial Services: Provides collection and customer relationship management services primarily to debt originators and servicers (e.g., credit card, auto lending, retail credit and mortgage) and the utility, insurance and hotel industries.

26

Corporate Items and Eliminations: Includes interest expense and costs related to corporate support functions including executive, finance, legal, compliance, human resources, vendor management, risk and operational effectiveness and marketing, and also includes eliminations of transactions between the reportable segments. Corporate Items and Eliminations also include the cost of facilities until approximately 40% of the facilities are occupied by the business unit(s), at which time costs are charged to the business unit(s).

We classify revenue in three categories: service revenue, revenue from reimbursable expenses and non-controlling interests. In evaluating our performance, we focus on service revenue. Service revenue consists of amounts attributable to our fee-based services. Reimbursable expenses and non-controlling interests are pass-through items for which we earn no margin. Reimbursable expenses consist of amounts we incur on behalf of our customers in performing our fee-based services, but we pass such costs directly on to our customers without any additional markup. Non-controlling interests represent the earnings of Lenders One, a consolidated entity not owned by Altisource, and are included in revenue and reduced from net income to arrive at net income attributable to Altisource.

Stock Repurchase Plan

On February 28, 2014, our shareholders approved a new stock repurchase program, which replaced the previous stock repurchase program. Under the new program, we are authorized to purchase up to 3.4 million shares of our common stock, based on a limit of 15% of the outstanding shares of common stock on the date of approval, in the open market, at a minimum price of $1.00 per share and a maximum price of $500.00 per share. This is in addition to amounts previously purchased under the prior programs. From authorization of the previous programs through March 31, 2015, we have purchased approximately 6.4 million shares of our common stock in the open market at an average price of $77.69 per share. We purchased 0.2 million shares of common stock at an average price of $23.44 per share during the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 0.3 million shares at an average price of $109.97 per share during the three months ended March 31, 2014. As of March 31, 2015, approximately 1.0 million shares of common stock remain available for repurchase under the new program. Our senior secured term loan limits the amount we can spend on share repurchases in any year and may prevent repurchases in certain circumstances. As of March 31, 2015, approximately $285 million was available to repurchase our common stock under our senior secured term loan.

Altisource’s Vision and Growth Initiatives

Altisource provides a suite of mortgage, real estate and consumer debt services, leveraging our technology and global operations. Our relationship with Ocwen provided a foundation on which we built our business and Ocwen, as our largest customer, remains an important priority for us. Leveraging the services we have built through Ocwen and other relationships, Altisource is focused on becoming the premier provider of real estate and mortgage marketplaces offering both distribution and content to a diversified customer base. Within the real estate and mortgage markets, we are facilitating transactions related to home sales, home rentals, home maintenance, mortgage origination and mortgage servicing.

While we expect our revenue from Ocwen’s servicing portfolio to decline in 2015, we believe we have opportunities to continue to build our business from our revenue and diversification initiatives. Ocwen remains a very important component of our business and we believe that its existing non-government-sponsored enterprise (“non-GSE”) portfolio provides continuing revenue opportunities for Altisource. While we have been working on our strategic growth initiatives for some time, we have historically had to balance this activity with the need to support Ocwen during a period of its own rapid growth. Given our current expectations relative to Ocwen going forward and the recognized importance of diversifying further our customer base, we are increasing our focus on our strategic growth initiatives. Our strategic growth initiatives are:

Mortgage market:

• attract new clients to our comprehensive default related businesses

• grow our origination services and technologies

Real estate market:

• expand our innovative online real estate marketplace

• grow our property management and renovation services business

27

Factors Affecting Comparability

The following items may impact the comparability of our results:

• The average number of loans serviced by Ocwen on REALServicing was 2.4 million for three months ended March 31, 2015 compared to 1.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2014. The average number of delinquent non-GSE loans serviced by Ocwen on REALServicing was 314 thousand for the three months ended March 31, 2015 compared to 369 thousand for the three months ended March 31, 2014;

• In the first quarter of 2015, we recognized a $3.3 million impairment loss on our investment in HLSS equity securities;

• On November 21, 2014, we acquired certain assets and assumed certain liabilities of Owners Advantage, LLC (“Owners”), a leading self-directed online real estate marketplace, for an initial purchase price of $19.8 million plus contingent earn out consideration of up to an additional $7.0 million over two years, subject to Owners achieving annual performance targets;

• In the fourth quarter of 2014, we discontinued our lender placed insurance brokerage line of business;

• On September 12, 2014, we completed the acquisition of certain assets and assumed certain liabilities of Mortgage Builder Software, Inc. (“Mortgage Builder”), a provider of mortgage loan origination and servicing software systems, for an initial purchase price of $15.7 million plus contingent earn out consideration of up to an additional $7.0 million over three years, subject to Mortgage Builder achieving annual performance targets; and

• On August 1, 2014, we amended our senior secured term loan agreement and increased our borrowings by $200.0 million to $594.5 million. Interest expense totaled $7.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2015 compared to $4.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2014.

Correction of Immaterial Errors

As previously disclosed, during 2014 we determined that while we properly identified our related parties in previously issued financial statements, disclosures of certain immaterial related party expenses were omitted. We corrected the previously presented disclosures of related party expenses in Note 2 - Transactions with Related Parties and on the face of the condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2014. The impact of correcting these items in the notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements had the effect of:

• increasing the amounts disclosed as related party cost of revenue from Ocwen by $7.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2014;

• increasing the amounts disclosed as selling, general and administrative expenses (“SG&A”) from Ocwen billings to Altisource by $0.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2014;

• decreasing the amounts disclosed as SG&A from Altisource billings to Ocwen by $0.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2014; and

• decreasing the amounts disclosed as SG&A from Altisource billings to AAMC by $0.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2014.

Correcting these items on the face of the condensed consolidated statements of operations resulted in the disclosure of related party cost of revenue of $7.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and a decrease in previously disclosed related party SG&A by $1.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2014.

In accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 250, Accounting Changes and Error Corrections, the Company evaluated the effect of the disclosure and presentation errors on its previously issued annual and quarterly financial statements, both qualitatively and quantitatively, and concluded that the related party disclosures in the Company’s previously issued annual and quarterly financial statements are not materially misstated.

Revenue

We recognized service revenue of $207.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2015, a 1% decrease compared to the three months ended March 31, 2014. The slight decline in service revenue was primarily due to the discontinuation of the lender placed insurance brokerage line of business in the fourth quarter of 2014, fewer property valuation services referrals and lower Equator revenue from the full amortization of acquisition related deferred revenue in 2014. These declines were largely offset by revenue expansion in the asset management services businesses primarily from growth in the number of non-Ocwen homes and Ocwen REO sold on Hubzu and a higher percentage of homes sold through auction.

Certain of our revenues are impacted by seasonality. More specifically, Mortgage Services’ revenue is impacted by REO sales and lawn maintenance, which tend to be at their lowest level during the fall and winter months and highest during the spring and

29

summer months. Financial Services’ asset recovery management revenue tends to be higher in the first quarter, as borrowers may utilize tax refunds and bonuses to pay debts, and generally declines throughout the rest of the year.

Cost of Revenue and Gross Profit

Cost of revenue principally includes payroll and employee benefits associated with personnel employed in customer service and operations roles, fees paid to external providers related to the provision of services, reimbursable expenses, technology and telecommunications expenses and depreciation and amortization of operating assets.

We recognized cost of revenue of $172.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2015, a 17% increase compared to the three months ended March 31, 2014. The increase in cost of revenue is primarily attributable to increases in compensation and benefits and technology and telecommunications costs. Compensation and benefits increased primarily due to increased headcount and related benefits, contractor costs and severance costs incurred in connection with cost reduction initiatives implemented during the three months ended March 31, 2015. Technology and telecommunications costs increased due to increases in service contracts and consulting fees. Recognizing that our business with Ocwen is not expected to grow in the near term due to challenges faced by Ocwen, in late 2014 and early 2015 we developed and are executing on a plan that includes eliminating certain non-revenue generating businesses, reducing vendor costs and eliminating staff. During the three months ended March 31, 2015, we recognized severance expense of $4.0 million related to the elimination of staff.

Gross profit decreased to $67.7 million, representing 33% of service revenue, for the three months ended March 31, 2015 from $91.5 million, representing 44% of service revenue, for the three months ended March 31, 2014. Gross profit as a percentage of service revenue declined in 2015 due largely to lower revenue from Mortgage Services’ higher gross margin businesses and higher compensation and benefits and technology and telecommunications costs without corresponding revenue growth principally within the Technology Services segment.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses and Income from Operations

SG&A includes payroll for personnel employed in executive, finance, legal, compliance, human resources, vendor management, risk and operational effectiveness and marketing roles. This category also includes occupancy costs, professional fees and depreciation and amortization of intangible assets.

We recognized SG&A of $52.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2015, a 20% increase compared to the three months ended March 31, 2014. This increase is driven primarily by higher compensation and benefits cost due to expansion of certain support functions, severance costs incurred in connection with cost reduction initiatives implemented during the three months ended March 31, 2015 and higher legal costs related to regulatory and litigation matters.

Income from operations decreased to $15.3 million, representing 7% of service revenue, for the three months ended March 31, 2015 from $47.9 million, representing 23% of service revenue, for the three months ended March 31, 2014. The decrease in operating income margin is primarily driven by the increase in cost of revenues and the increase in SG&A discussed above.

Other Income (Expense), net

Other income (expense), net principally includes interest expense, interest income and an other than temporary impairment loss on HLSS equity securities. Interest expense was $7.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2015, an increase of $2.4 million compared to the three months ended March 31, 2014, resulting from the additional $200.0 million senior secured term loan borrowings on August 1, 2014.

During the three months ended March 31, 2015, we purchased 1.6 million shares of HLSS common stock for $30.0 million in the open market. This investment is classified as available for sale and reflected at fair value at March 31, 2015. Based on HLSS’ sale of substantially all of its assets and plan of complete liquidation and dissolution, we determined that our investment in HLSS is other than temporarily impaired. Accordingly, we recognized an other than temporary impairment loss of $3.3 million during the three months ended March 31, 2015. This amount reflects the difference between the cost and fair value of the HLSS equity securities as of March 31, 2015.

Income Tax Provision

We recognized an income tax provision of $0.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2015 compared to $3.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2014. Our effective tax rate was 8.3% and 7.1% for the three months ended March 31, 2015

30

and March 31, 2014, respectively. Our effective tax rate differs from the Luxembourg statutory tax rate of 29.2% primarily due to the effect of certain deductions in Luxembourg from a tax ruling, which expires in 2019 unless extended or renewed, and the mix of income and losses with varying tax rates in multiple taxing jurisdictions. Our consolidated effective income tax rate for financial reporting purposes may change periodically due to changes in enacted tax rates, fluctuations in the mix of income earned from our domestic and international operations, which may be subject to differing tax rates, and our ability to utilize net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards.

SEGMENT RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following section provides a discussion of pre-tax results of operations of our business segments. Transactions between segments are accounted for as third party arrangements for purposes of presenting segment results of operations. Intercompany transactions primarily consist of IT infrastructure services. We reflect these as service revenue in the Technology Services segment and technology and telecommunications expense within cost of revenue and SG&A in the segment receiving the services.

Total revenue from related parties	$	117,941	$	122,439	(4	)

We recognized service revenue of $144.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2015, a 2% decrease compared to the three months ended March 31, 2014, primarily due to the discontinuation of the lender placed insurance brokerage line of business in the fourth quarter of 2014 and fewer property valuation services referrals. These declines were largely offset by revenue expansion in the asset management services businesses primarily from growth in the number of non-Ocwen homes and Ocwen REO sold on Hubzu and a higher percentage of homes sold through auction.

Certain of our Mortgage Services businesses are impacted by seasonality. REO sales and lawn maintenance services are generally lowest during the fall and winter months and highest during the spring and summer months.

Cost of Revenue and Gross Profit

Cost of revenue consists of the following for the three months ended March 31:

(in thousands)	2015		2014		% Increase (decrease)
Compensation and benefits	$	20,805	$	15,452	35

Depreciation and amortization	817		531		54
Cost of revenue	$	114,804	$	103,237	11

33

Cost of revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2015 of $114.8 million increased by 11% compared to the three months ended March 31, 2014, primarily due to the increase in compensation and benefits and technology and telecommunications costs. Compensation and benefits costs increased during 2014 to support growth in certain of our Mortgage Services businesses and our growth initiatives. Technology and telecommunications costs increased primarily due to increased IT infrastructure investments. Recognizing that our business with Ocwen is not expected to grow in the near term due to challenges faced by Ocwen, in late 2014 and early 2015 we developed and are executing on a plan that includes eliminating certain non-revenue generating businesses, reducing vendor costs and eliminating staff. During the three months ended March 31, 2015, we recognized severance expense in the Mortgage Services segment of $1.1 million related to the elimination of staff.

Gross profit decreased to $62.2 million, representing 43% of service revenue, for the three months ended March 31, 2015 from $73.2 million, representing 50% of service revenue, for the three months ended March 31, 2014. The gross profit margin decreased due to service revenue mix with no revenue in 2015 from the higher margin lender placed insurance brokerage business and from costs incurred in the three months ended March 31, 2015 related to certain non-revenue generating businesses that will no longer be incurred after March 31, 2015.

Our margins can vary substantially depending upon service revenue mix.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses and Income from Operations

SG&A expenses consist of the following for the three months ended March 31:

N/M - not meaningful.

SG&A for the three months ended March 31, 2015 of $20.6 million increased by 7% compared to the three months ended March 31, 2014, primarily driven by an increase in legal costs related to legal and regulatory matters. This increase was partially offset by lower Hubzu marketing costs as we continue to optimize our marketing spend and lower bad debt expense.

Income from operations decreased to $41.6 million, representing 29% of service revenue, for the three months ended March 31, 2015 compared to $54.0 million, representing 37% of service revenue, for the three months ended March 31, 2014. The decrease in operating income margin is the result of the decrease in gross profit as a percentage of service revenue and higher SG&A expenses as a percentage of service revenue, as discussed above.

We recognized service revenue of $22.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2015, an 8% decrease compared to the three months ended March 31, 2014, primarily due to lower customer relationship management business from an existing customer, due to its vendor diversification initiatives, partially offset by the addition of a new customer.

Certain of our Financial Services businesses are impacted by seasonality. Revenue in the asset recovery management business tends to be higher in the first quarter, as borrowers may utilize tax refunds and bonuses to pay debts, and generally declines throughout the rest of the year.

Cost of revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2015 of $15.1 million increased by 3% compared to the three months ended March 31, 2014, primarily due to higher technology and telecommunications costs from increased IT infrastructure investments.

Gross profit decreased to $7.3 million, representing 32% of service revenue, for the three months ended March 31, 2015 compared to $9.7 million, representing 40% of service revenue, for the three months ended March 31, 2014. Gross profit margin decreased primarily due to the decrease in revenues from a customer relationship management customer, due to its vendor diversification initiatives, without a similar reduction in compensation and benefits and higher technology and telecommunications costs.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses and Income from Operations

SG&A expenses consist of the following for the three months ended March 31:

SG&A for the three months ended March 31, 2015 of $4.7 million increased by 1% compared to the three months ended March 31, 2014, primarily due to an increase in depreciation and amortization expense and other expenses due to leasehold improvements in connection with facility relocations, partially offset by a decrease in amortization of intangible assets.

Income from operations was $2.5 million, representing 11% of service revenue, for the three months ended March 31, 2015 compared to $5.0 million, representing 21% of service revenue, for the three months ended March 31, 2014. The decrease in operating income as a percentage of service revenue is primarily the result of lower gross profit margins as discussed above.

Technology Services

Revenue

Revenue by service line was as follows for the three months ended March 31:

(in thousands)	2015		2014		% Increase (decrease)
Service revenue:
Software services	$	32,624	$	34,604	(6	)

IT infrastructure services	11,111		5,467		103
Total revenue from related parties	$	25,089	$	16,817	49

We recognized service revenue of $52.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2015, an 11% increase compared to the three months ended March 31, 2014, primarily driven by IT infrastructure services revenue. IT infrastructure services are typically billed on a cost plus basis and costs in the IT infrastructure business were higher than the same period in 2014. (See cost of revenue section below for further discussion.) Within the software services businesses, lower Equator revenue from the full amortization of acquisition related deferred revenue in 2014 was partially offset by revenue from a higher number of loans serviced by Ocwen on REALServicing.

For segment presentation purposes, revenue from services provided by Technology Services to our other reportable segments is eliminated in consolidation. This inter-segment revenue is included as revenue in the Technology Services segment and as technology and telecommunications expense, a component of cost of revenue and SG&A, in our other reportable segments.

Cost of Revenue and Gross Profit (Loss)

Cost of revenue consists of the following for the three months ended March 31:

(in thousands)	2015		2014		% Increase (decrease)
Compensation and benefits	$	37,534	$	26,158	43
Technology and telecommunications	10,073		7,303		38
Depreciation and amortization	5,116		3,871		32
Cost of revenue	$	52,723	$	37,332	41

Cost of revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2015 of $52.7 million increased by 41% compared to the three months ended March 31, 2014, primarily due to increased compensation and benefits and technology and telecommunications costs. A portion of the increase in costs relates to the September 2014 acquisition of Mortgage Builder. The remaining increase relates to businesses we have been investing in to support our growth. Recognizing that our business with Ocwen is not expected to grow in the near term due to challenges faced by Ocwen, in late 2014 and early 2015 we developed and are executing on a plan that includes eliminating certain non-revenue generating businesses, reducing vendor costs and eliminating staff. During the three months ended March 31, 2015, we recognized severance expense in the Technology Services segment of $2.8 million related to the elimination of staff.

Gross profit (loss) decreased to $(0.8) million, representing (1)% of service revenue, for the three months ended March 31, 2015 compared to $9.5 million, representing 20% of service revenue, for the three months ended March 31, 2014. Gross profit (loss) margins decreased primarily due to higher costs, as described above.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses and Income from Operations

SG&A expenses consist of the following for the three months ended March 31:

(in thousands)	2015		2014		% Increase (decrease)
Compensation and benefits	$	878	$	944	(7	)

Other	838		1,701		(51	)
Selling, general and administrative expenses	$	7,315	$	6,614	11

SG&A for the three months ended March 31, 2015 of $7.3 million increased by 11% compared to the three months ended March 31, 2014, primarily due to increased occupancy related costs driven by facility expansions and relocations as well as increased intangible asset amortization related to the Mortgage Builder acquisition, partially offset by lower bad debt expense.

Loss from operations was $(8.1) million, representing (16)% of service revenue, for the three months ended March 31, 2015 compared to income from operations of $2.9 million, representing 6% of service revenue, for the three months ended March 31, 2014. Income from operations as a percentage of service revenue decreased primarily due to the decline in gross profit margins and the increase in SG&A, as discussed above.

Corporate Items and Eliminations

Corporate Items and Eliminations include interest expense, other than temporary impairment loss on HLSS equity securities and costs related to corporate support functions including executive, finance, legal, compliance, human resources, vendor management, risk and operational effectiveness and marketing. It also includes eliminations of transactions between the reportable segments.

37

Corporate costs consist of the following for the three months ended March 31:

(in thousands)	2015		2014			% Increase (decrease)

Total corporate costs	$	30,242	$	17,843		69

N/M - not meaningful.

Corporate costs for the three months ended March 31, 2015 of $30.2 million increased by 69% compared to the three months ended March 31, 2014, primarily due to higher compensation and benefits costs, legal and compliance costs related to regulatory and litigation matters, interest expense and an other than temporary impairment loss on HLSS equity securities. We incurred higher compensation and benefits costs as we are expanding certain corporate functions. In addition, we incurred $0.5 million of severance costs in connection with cost reduction initiatives implemented during the three months ended March 31, 2015. Interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2015 was $7.2 million, an increase of $2.4 million compared to the three months ended March 31, 2014, resulting from the additional $200.0 million senior secured term loan borrowings on August 1, 2014. In addition, we recorded a $3.3 million loss related to an other than temporary impairment of HLSS equity securities for the three months ended March 31, 2015 (no comparative amount in 2014).

Intercompany revenue that is eliminated in consolidation increased for the three months ended March 31, 2015 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2014. These intercompany transactions primarily consisted of IT infrastructure services. While the expenses are recognized in the Mortgage Services and Financial Services segments above, the elimination of these expenses is reflected in Corporate Items and Eliminations.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Liquidity

Our primary source of liquidity is cash flows from operations. We seek to deploy excess cash generated in a disciplined manner. Principally, we intend to use excess cash to develop complementary services and businesses that we believe will generate attractive margins in line with our core capabilities and strategy. We may consider business acquisitions and other opportunities that may arise from time to time. During January 2015, we used $4.0 millionto repurchase Altisource common stock.

Our relationship with Ocwen is subject to a number of risks and uncertainties that could result in changes to our relationship and have an adverse effect on our liquidity. We intend to closely monitor the Ocwen related uncertainties and to modify our business plan as needed in response. As a result of these uncertainties, we intend to increase our cash and cash equivalents position throughout 2015. However, we will continue to monitor market conditions, and may, at some point in the future, consider repurchasing our common stock and/or our debt if we believe conditions are favorable.

Senior Secured Term Loan

On November 27, 2012, Altisource Solutions S.à r.l., a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, entered into a senior secured term loan agreement with Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent, and certain lenders. The Company and certain wholly-owned subsidiaries are guarantors of the term loan. We subsequently amended the senior secured term loan agreement to increase the principal amount of the senior secured term loan and, among other changes, re-establish the $200.0 million incremental term loan facility accordion, lower the interest rate, extend the maturity date by approximately one year and increase the maximum amount of Restricted Junior Payments (as defined in the senior secured term loan agreement; other capitalized terms, unless defined herein, are defined in the senior secured term loan agreement). The lenders of the senior secured term loan, as amended, have no obligation to provide any such additional debt under the accordion provision. As of March 31, 2015, $587.3 million, net of

38

unamortized discount of $2.8 million, was outstanding under the senior secured term loan agreement, as amended, compared to $588.6 million, net of unamortized discount of $2.9 million, as of December 31, 2014.

After giving effect to the third amendment entered into on August 1, 2014, the term loan must be repaid in equal consecutive quarterly principal installments of $1.5 million, which commenced on September 30, 2014, with the balance due at maturity. All amounts outstanding under the senior secured term loan agreement will become due on the earlier of (i) December 9, 2020 and (ii) the date on which the loans are declared to be due and owing by the administrative agent at the request (or with the consent) of the Required Lenders upon the occurrence of any event of default under the senior secured term loan agreement. However, if leverage ratios exceed 3.00 to 1.00, a percentage of cash flows must be used to repay principal. No mandatory prepayments were owed for the three months ended March 31, 2015. Interest payments are due monthly. The interest rate as of March 31, 2015 was 4.50%.

The debt covenants in the senior secured term loan agreement limit, among other things, our ability to incur additional debt, pay dividends and repurchase stock. In the event we require additional liquidity, our ability to obtain it may be limited by the senior secured term loan.

Cash Flows

The following table presents our cash flows for the three months ended March 31:

(in thousands)	2015			2014			% Increase (decrease)
Net income adjusted for non-cash items	$	27,043		$	59,116		(54	)

Cash Flows from Operating Activities

Cash flows from operating activities generally consist of the cash effects of transactions and events that enter into the determination of net income. For the three months ended March 31, 2015, we generated negative cash flows from operating activities of $(15.9) million, or approximately $(0.08) for every dollar of service revenue compared to cash flows from operating activities of $36.3 million, or approximately $0.17 for every dollar of service revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2014. The decrease in cash flows from operations for the three months ended March 31, 2015 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2014 is principally driven by lower net income, after adding back depreciation and amortization including amortization of intangible assets, and unfavorable working capital changes. Changes in working capital were principally due to higher accounts receivable from the timing of collections and a decrease in accounts payable and accrued expenses due to the timing of payments, including higher annual incentive compensation payments.

Operating cash flows per service revenue dollar can be negatively impacted because of the nature of some of our services. Certain services are performed immediately following or shortly after the referral, but the collection of the receivable does not occur until a specific event occurs (e.g., the foreclosure is complete, the REO asset is sold, etc.) and our cash flows from operations may be negatively impacted when comparing one interim period to another.

Cash Flows from Investing Activities

Cash flows from investing activities include our purchase of 1.6 million shares HLSS common stock from March 10, 2015 to March 17, 2015. Cash flows from investing activities also include capital expenditures of $3.9 million and $12.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively, primarily related to facility build-outs and investments in IT infrastructure.

39

Cash Flows from Financing Activities

Cash flows from financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014 primarily include activity associated with share repurchases, debt repayment, stock option exercises and payments to non-controlling interests. During the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, we spent $4.0 million and $35.8 million, respectively, to repurchase our common stock. During the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, we repaid $1.5 million and $1.0 million, respectively, of the borrowings under the senior secured term loan. Stock option exercises provided proceeds of $0.2 million and $0.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. Distributions to non-controlling interests were $0.7 million for each of the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014.

Liquidity Requirements after March 31, 2015

In November 15, 2013, we completed the acquisition of Equator, LLC (“Equator”). The purchase agreement provided for the payment of up to $80 million in potential additional consideration determined based on Equator’s Adjusted EBITA (as defined in the purchase agreement) in the three consecutive 12-month periods following closing. Up to $22.5 million of this potential additional consideration could be earned in each of the first two 12-month periods, and up to $35.0 million could be earned in the third 12-month period. Any amounts earned upon the achievement of Adjusted EBITA thresholds are payable through 2017. We may, at our discretion, pay up to 20% of each payment of any of this potential additional consideration in shares of Company restricted stock, with the balance to be paid in cash. As of March 31, 2015, we estimated the fair value of the potential additional consideration related to the Equator acquisition to be $8.1 million. No payment was earned during the initial 12-month period. The amount ultimately paid will depend on Equator’s actual Adjusted EBITA in the three consecutive 12-month periods following closing.

On September 12, 2014, we acquired Mortgage Builder. The Mortgage Builder purchase agreement provides for the payment of up to $7.0 million in potential additional consideration based on Adjusted Revenue (as defined in the purchase agreement). We have estimated the fair value of the Mortgage Builder potential additional consideration to be $1.6 million as of March 31, 2015. The amount ultimately paid will depend on Mortgage Builder’s Adjusted Revenue in the three consecutive 12-month periods following closing.

On November 21, 2014, we acquired Owners. The Owners purchase agreement provides for a payment of up to $7.0 million of potential additional consideration based on Adjusted Revenue (as defined in the purchase agreement) earned in the two consecutive 12-month periods following closing. We have estimated the fair value of the Owners contingent consideration to be $2.0 million as of March 31, 2015. The amount ultimately paid will depend on Owners’ Adjusted Revenue earned in the two consecutive 12-month periods following closing.

During the second quarter of 2015, we expect to distribute $0.7 million to the Lenders One members representing non-controlling interests and repay $1.5 million of the senior secured term loan.

We believe that we will generate sufficient cash flows from operations to fund capital expenditures and required debt and interest payments for the next twelve months.

Contractual Obligations, Commitmentsand Contingencies

For the three months ended March 31, 2015, there were no significant changes to our contractual obligations from those identified in our Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014, other than those that occur in the normal course of business. See also Note 19 to the interim condensed consolidated financial statements. 

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES, ESTIMATES AND RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENT

We prepare our interim condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. In applying many of these accounting principles, we need to make assumptions, estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses in our interim condensed consolidated financial statements. We base our estimates and judgments on historical experience and other assumptions that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances. These assumptions, estimates and judgments, however, are often subjective. Actual results may be negatively affected based on changing circumstances. If actual amounts are ultimately different from our estimates, the revisions are included in our results of operations for the period in which the actual amounts become known.

Our critical accounting policies are described in the MD&A section of our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014 filed with the SEC on March 2, 2015. Those policies have not changed during the three months ended March 31, 2015.

Future Adoption of New Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2014, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contractswith Customers. This standard establishes a single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and supersedes most current revenue recognition guidance. The core principle of the new standard is an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. This new standard will be effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within that reporting period. Early adoption is not permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact this new guidance may have on its results of operations and financial position.

In February 2015, FASB issued ASU No. 2015-02, Consolidation: Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis. This standard addresses the consolidation of certain legal entities relative to current requirements under GAAP of a reporting entity to consolidate another legal entity in situations in which the reporting entity’s contractual rights do not give it the ability to act primarily on its own behalf, the reporting entity does not hold a majority of the legal entity’s voting rights or the reporting entity is not exposed to a majority of the legal entity’s economic benefits or obligations. This standard will be effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2015, including interim periods within that reporting period. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. If an entity early adopts the standard in an interim period, any adjustments should be reflected as of the beginning of the year that includes that interim period. The Company is currently evaluating the impact this new guidance may have on its results of operations and financial position.

In April 2015, FASB issued ASU No. 2015-03, Interest-Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30): Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs. This revised standard changes the presentation of debt issuance costs in financial statements. Under the ASU, an entity presents such costs in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the related debt liability rather than as an asset. This standard will be effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2015, including interim periods within that reporting period. Early adoption is permitted for financial statements that have not been previously issued. The Company does not expect the adoption of this standard to have a material impact on its results of operations or financial position.

OTHER MATTERS

Related Parties

Ocwen

For the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, we generated Mortgage Services segment revenue from Ocwen of $111.1 million and $122.4 million, respectively. For the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, we generated Financial Services segment revenue from Ocwen of $5.6 million and $6.3 million, respectively. Also, for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, we generated Technology Services segment revenue of $24.6 million and $16.8 million, respectively. Services provided to Ocwen during such periods included residential property valuation, real estate asset management and sales, trustee management services, property inspection and preservation, insurance services, charge-off mortgage collections, IT infrastructure management and software applications including our software platforms. We record revenue we earn from Ocwen under the service agreements at rates we believe to be comparable market rates as we believe they are consistent with fees we charge to other customers and/or fees charged by our competitors for comparable services.

We earn additional revenue on the portfolios serviced by Ocwen that is not considered related party revenue when a party other than Ocwen selects Altisource as the service provider. For the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, we recognized revenue of $53.5 million and $54.7 million, respectively,on the portfolios serviced by Ocwen that is not considered related party revenue.

For the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, Ocwen billed us $10.3 million and $7.3 million, respectively, for data access fees and contractor and/or employee costs under agreements described in Note 2 to the condensed consolidated financial statements. These amounts are reflected as a component of cost of revenue in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. Based upon our previously provided notice, the Data Access and Services Agreement was terminated effective March 31, 2015.

For the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, we billed Ocwen $0.6 million and $1.0 million, respectively, and Ocwen billed us $1.6 million and $1.2 million, respectively, for other services provided under the agreements described in Note 2 to the condensed consolidated financial statements. These amounts are reflected as a component of SG&A in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

HLSS

HLSS is a publicly traded company whose primary objective is the acquisition of mortgage servicing rights and related servicing advances, loans held for investment and other residential mortgage related assets. As of March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, HLSS owned, for a significant portion of Ocwen-serviced non-GSE loans, (1) the rights to receive the servicing fees that Ocwen is entitled to receive and (2) associated servicing advances.

Under a support services agreement, we provide HLSS certain finance, human resources, tax and facilities services and we sell information technology services to HLSS. We billed HLSS $0.6 million and $0.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. Of these amounts, $0.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2015 (no comparative amount in 2014) is reflected in revenue in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and, for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, $0.1 million and $0.2 million, respectively, is reflected as a component of SG&A in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

On February 22, 2015, HLSS and New Residential Investment Corp. (“NRZ”) announced they entered into a definitive agreement whereby NRZ would acquire all of the outstanding shares of HLSS, subject to shareholder approval and other customary closing conditions.

From March 10, 2015 to March 17, 2015, we purchased 1.6 million shares of HLSS common stock for $30.0 million in the open market. See Note 5 to the condensed consolidated financial statements.

On April 6, 2015, HLSS and NRZ announced they terminated the merger agreement announced on February 22, 2015 and entered into a purchase agreement under which NRZ acquired substantially all of the assets and assumed substantially all of the liabilities of HLSS. The asset purchase was consummated concurrently with signing of the purchase agreement. Furthermore, NRZ separately agreed to a multi-year extension of the servicing contracts with Ocwen. HLSS also announced that it adopted a plan of complete liquidation and dissolution. Additional information is contained in HLSS’ public filings.

Residential and AAMC

For the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, we billed Residential $6.8 million and $0.8 million, respectively. These amounts are reflected in revenue in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. This excludes revenue from services we provide to Residential’s loans serviced by Ocwen where we are retained by Ocwen. That revenue is included in Ocwen related party revenue. For the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, we billed AAMC $0.2 million and $0.3 million, respectively, under the services agreements described in Note 2 to the condensed consolidated financial statements. Of these amounts, less than $0.1 million in each period is reflected in revenue in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and, for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, $0.2 million and $0.3 million, respectively, is reflected as a component of SG&A in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

42

Item 3.  Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

Market Risk

Our financial market risk consists primarily of interest rate and foreign currency exchange risk.

Interest Rate Risk

As of March 31, 2015, the interest rate charged on the senior secured term loan was 4.50%. The interest rate is calculated based on the Adjusted Eurodollar Rate (as defined in the senior secured term loan agreement) with a minimum floor of 1.00% plus 3.50%.

Based on the principal amount outstanding at March 31, 2015, a one percentage point increase in the Eurodollar Rate would increase our annual interest expense by approximately $1.6 million, based on the March 31, 2015 Adjusted Eurodollar Rate. There would be no change in our annual interest expense if there was a one percentage point decrease in the Eurodollar Rate.

Foreign Currency Exchange Risk

We are exposed to currency risk from potential changes in currency values of our foreign currency denominated expenses, assets, liabilities and cash flows. Our most significant foreign currency exposure relates to the Indian rupee. Based on expenses incurred in Indian rupees during the three months ended March 31, 2015, a one percentage point increase or decrease in value of the Indian rupee in relation to the United States dollar would increase or decrease our annual expenses by approximately $1.2 million.

43

Item 4.  Controls and Procedures

a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and Rule 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report. Based on such evaluation, such officers have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report were effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC rules and forms, and to ensure that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

b) Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in the Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f)) that occurred during the quarter ended March 31, 2015, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

44

PART II — OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1.  Legal Proceedings

From time to time, we are involved in legal and administrative proceedings arising in the course of our business.  We record a liability for these matters if an unfavorable outcome is probable and the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated, including expected insurance coverage.  For proceedings where the reasonable estimate of loss is a range, we record a best estimate of loss within the range.

On September 8, 2014, the West Palm Beach Firefighter’s Pension Fund filed a putative securities class action suit against Altisource and certain of its officers and directors in the United States District Court for the Southern District of Florida alleging violations of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Rule 10b-5 with regard to disclosures concerning pricing and transactions with related parties that allegedly inflated Altisource share prices. The court subsequently appointed the Pension Fund of the International Union of Painters and Allied Trades District Council 35 and the Annuity Fund of the International Union of Painters and Allied Trades District Council 35 as Lead Plaintiffs. On January 30, 2015, Lead Plaintiffs filed an amended class action complaint which adds Ocwen Financial Corporation as a defendant, and seeks a determination that the action may be maintained as a class action on behalf of purchasers of the Company’s securities between April 25, 2013 and December 21, 2014 and an unspecified amount of damages. Altisource intends to vigorously defend this lawsuit.

On February 11, 2015, W.A. Sokolowski, an alleged shareholder of Ocwen Financial Corporation, filed an amended shareholder derivative complaint in the United States District Court for the Southern District of Florida against Ocwen Financial Corporation, certain of its officers and directors, Altisource and other companies. The suit seeks recovery of an unspecified amount of damages on behalf of Ocwen for alleged breaches of fiduciary duty by Ocwen’s current and former officers and directors, which were allegedly aided and abetted by Altisource and other defendants. Altisource, which has not been served with the suit, intends to vigorously defend the lawsuit.

Altisource is unable to predict the outcomes of these lawsuits or reasonably estimate the potential loss, if any, arising from the suits, given that a motion to dismiss was filed but has not yet been adjudicated in the first case, Altisource has not been served in the second case, discovery has not commenced in either case and significant legal and factual issues remain to be determined in both cases.

In addition to the matters referenced above, we are involved in legal actions in the course of our business, some of which seek monetary damages. We do not believe that the outcome of these proceedings, both individually and in the aggregate, will have a material impact on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

Regulatory Matters

Our business is subject to regulation and oversight by federal, state and local governmental authorities. We periodically receive subpoenas, civil investigative demands or other requests for information from regulatory agencies in connection with their regulatory or investigative authority. We are currently responding to such inquiries from federal and state agencies relating to certain aspects of our business. We believe it is premature to predict the potential outcome or to estimate any potential financial impact in connection with these inquiries.

Item 1A.  Risk Factors

As of the date of this filing, there have been no material changes in our risk factors from those disclosed in Part I, Item 1A, of our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014 filed with the SEC on March 2, 2015.

FAIR VALUE

Fair Value Measurements on a Recurring Basis

Available for sale securities are carried at fair value and consist of 1.6 million shares of HLSS common stock as of March 31, 2015 (no comparative amount in 2014). As of March 31, 2015, the fair value of available for sale securities was $26.7 million (1,613,125 shares at $16.54 per share) (no comparative amount in 2014). Available for sale securities are measured using Level 1 inputs as these securities have quoted prices in active markets.

Liabilities for acquisition related contingent consideration are carried at fair value and were recorded in connection with the acquisitions of Equator, LLC in 2013 and Mortgage Builder and Owners in 2014. As of March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the fair value of acquisition related contingent consideration was $11.8 million and $11.6 million, respectively (see Note 13). We measured the liabilities for acquisition related contingent consideration using Level 3 inputs as they are determined based on the present value of future estimated payments, which included sensitivities pertaining to discount rates and financial projections.

There were no transfers between different levels during the periods presented.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The following table presents the carrying amount and estimated fair value of financial instruments held by the Company at March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014 that are not carried at fair value. The fair values are estimated using market information and what the Company believes to be appropriate valuation methodologies under GAAP:

	March 31, 2015								December 31, 2014
(in thousands)	Carrying Amount		Fair Value						Carrying Amount		Fair Value
			Level 1		Level 2		Level 3				Level 1		Level 2		Level 3
Cash and cash equivalents	$	105,623	$	105,623	$	—	$	—	$	161,361	$	161,361	$	—	$	—
Restricted cash	3,026		3,026		—		—		3,022		3,022		—		—
Long-term debt	590,057		—		430,742		—		591,543		—		467,319		—

Our financial assets and liabilities primarily include cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash and long-term debt. Cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash are carried at amounts that approximate their fair value due to the short-term nature of these instruments and were measured using Level 1 inputs. The fair value of our long-term debt is based on quoted market prices. We do not believe that there is an active market for our debt, based on the frequency of trading. Therefore, the quoted prices are considered Level 2 inputs.

EARNINGS PER SHARE

Earnings Per Share [Abstract]

EARNINGS PER SHARE

EARNINGS PER SHARE

Basic earnings per share (“EPS”) is computed by dividing income available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period.  Diluted EPS reflects the assumed conversion of all dilutive securities using the treasury stock method.

Basic and diluted EPS are calculated as follows for the three months ended March 31:

(in thousands, except per share data)	2015		2014
Net income attributable to Altisource	$	3,698	$	39,631
Weighted average common shares outstanding, basic	20,172		22,509
Dilutive effect of stock options	823		2,153
Weighted average common shares outstanding, diluted	20,995		24,662
Earnings per share:
Basic	$	0.18	$	1.76
Diluted	$	0.18	$	1.61

For the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, 0.7 million options and less than 0.1 million options, respectively, that were anti-dilutive have been excluded from the computation of diluted EPS.  These options were anti-dilutive because their exercise price was greater than the average market price of our common stock. Also excluded from the computation of diluted EPS are 0.2 million options and less than 0.1 million options for each of the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively, granted for shares that are issuable upon the achievement of certain market and performance criteria related to our common stock price and an annualized rate of return to investors that have not yet been met.

LONG-TERM DEBT

LONG-TERM DEBT

Long-term debt consists of the following:

(in thousands)	March 31, 2015			December 31, 2014
Senior secured term loan	$	590,057		$	591,543
Less: unamortized discount, net	(2,802		)	(2,929		)

Long-term debt, less current portion	$	581,310		$	582,669

On November 27, 2012, Altisource Solutions S.à r.l., a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, entered into a senior secured term loan agreement with Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent, and certain lenders. The Company and certain wholly-owned subsidiaries are guarantors of the term loan (collectively, the “Guarantors”). We subsequently amended the senior secured term loan agreement to increase the principal amount of the senior secured term loan and, among other changes, re-establish the $200.0 million incremental term loan facility accordion, lower the interest rate, extend the maturity date by approximately one year and increase the maximum amount of Restricted Junior Payments (as defined in the senior secured term loan agreement; other capitalized terms, unless defined herein, are defined in the senior secured term loan agreement). As of March 31, 2015, $587.3 million, net of unamortized discount of $2.8 million, was outstanding under the senior secured term loan agreement, as amended, compared to $588.6 million, net of unamortized discount of $2.9 million, as of December 31, 2014.

After giving effect to the third amendment entered into on August 1, 2014, the term loan must be repaid in equal consecutive quarterly principal installments of $1.5 million, which commenced on September 30, 2014, with the balance due at maturity. All amounts outstanding under the senior secured term loan agreement will become due on the earlier of (i) December 9, 2020 and (ii) the date on which the loans are declared to be due and owing by the administrative agent at the request (or with the consent) of the Required Lenders upon the occurrence of any event of default under the senior secured term loan agreement.

In addition to the scheduled principal payments, the term loan is (with certain exceptions) subject to mandatory prepayment upon issuances of debt, casualty and condemnation events and sales of assets, as well as from a percentage of Consolidated Excess Cash Flow if the leverage ratio is greater than 3.00 to 1.00.  No mandatory prepayments were owed for the three months ended March 31, 2015. 

The term loan bears interest at rates based upon, at our option, the Adjusted Eurodollar Rate or the Base Rate.  Adjusted Eurodollar Rate loans bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the sum of (i) the greater of (x) the Adjusted Eurodollar Rate for the applicable interest period and (y) 1.00% plus (ii) a 3.50% margin.  Base Rate loans bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the sum of (i) the greater of (x) the Base Rate and (y) 2.00% plus (ii) a 2.50% margin. The interest rate at March 31, 2015 was 4.50%.

Term loan payments are guaranteed by the Guarantors and are secured by a pledge of all equity interests of certain subsidiaries as well as a lien on substantially all of the assets of Altisource Solutions S.à r.l. and the Guarantors, subject to certain exceptions.

The senior secured term loan agreement includes covenants that restrict or limit, among other things, our ability to: create liens and encumbrances; incur additional indebtedness; sell, transfer or dispose of assets; make Restricted Junior Payments including share repurchases; change lines of business; amend material debt agreements or other material contracts; engage in certain transactions with affiliates; enter into sale/leaseback transactions; grant negative pledges or agree to such other restrictions relating to subsidiary dividends and distributions; make changes to its fiscal year and engage in mergers and consolidations.

The senior secured term loan agreement contains certain events of default, including (i) failure to pay principal when due or interest or any other amount owing on any other obligation under the senior secured term loan agreement within five days of becoming due, (ii) material incorrectness of representations and warranties when made, (iii) breach of covenants, (iv) failure to pay principal or interest on any other debt that equals or exceeds $40.0 million when due, (v) default on any other debt that equals or exceeds $40.0 million that causes, or gives the holder or holders of such debt the ability to cause, an acceleration of such debt, (vi) occurrence of a Change of Control, (vii) bankruptcy and insolvency events, (viii) entry by a court of one or more judgments against us in an amount in excess of $40.0 million that remain unbonded, undischarged or unstayed for a certain number of days after the entry thereof, (ix) the occurrence of certain ERISA events and (x) the failure of certain Loan Documents to be in full force and effect.  If any event of default occurs and is not cured within applicable grace periods set forth in the senior secured term loan agreement or waived, all loans and other obligations could become due and immediately payable and the facility could be terminated.

At March 31, 2015, debt issuance costs were $7.7 million, net of $2.5 million of accumulated amortization.  At December 31, 2014, debt issuance costs were $8.1 million, net of $2.2 million of accumulated amortization. Debt issuance costs are included in other assets in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Interest expense on the term loans, including amortization of debt issuance costs and the net debt discount, totaled $7.2 million and $4.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]

Basis of Presentation

Basis of Presentation

The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) Regulation S-X. Accordingly, these financial statements do not include all of the information and notes required by GAAP for complete consolidated financial statements. In the opinion of management, the interim data includes all normal recurring adjustments considered necessary to fairly state the results for the interim periods presented. The preparation of interim condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP 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 our interim condensed consolidated financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Intercompany and inter-segment transactions and accounts have been eliminated in consolidation. Certain prior year amounts reported by the Mortgage Services and Technology Services segments have been reclassified to conform with the current year presentation.

The Mortgage Partnership of America, L.L.C. (“MPA”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Altisource, serves as the manager of Best Partners Mortgage Cooperative, Inc. doing business as Lenders One Mortgage Cooperative (“Lenders One”). MPA provides services to Lenders One under a management agreement that ends on December 31, 2025. The management agreement between MPA and Lenders One^® members, pursuant to which MPA is the management company of Lenders One, represents a variable interest in a variable interest entity. MPA is the primary beneficiary of Lenders One as it has the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact Lenders One’s economic performance and the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits from Lenders One. As a result, Lenders One is presented in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements on a consolidated basis with the interests of the members reflected as non-controlling interests. As of March 31, 2015, Lenders One had total assets of $8.8 million and total liabilities of $7.7 million.  As of December 31, 2014, Lenders One had total assets of $7.7 million and total liabilities of $6.7 million.

These interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto contained in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014, filed with the SEC on March 2, 2015, which contains a summary of our significant accounting policies. Certain footnote detail in the Form 10-K is omitted from the information included herein.

Correction of Immaterial Errors

As previously disclosed, during 2014 we determined that while we properly identified our related parties in previously issued financial statements, disclosures of certain immaterial related party expenses were omitted. We corrected the previously presented disclosures of related party expenses in Note 2 - Transactions with Related Parties and on the face of the condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2014. The impact of correcting these items in the notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements had the effect of:

• increasing the amounts disclosed as related party cost of revenue from Ocwen Financial Corporation and its subsidiaries (“Ocwen”) by $7.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2014;

• increasing the amounts disclosed as selling, general and administrative expenses from Ocwen billings to Altisource by $0.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2014;

• decreasing the amounts disclosed as selling, general and administrative expenses from Altisource billings to Ocwen by $0.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2014; and

• decreasing the amounts disclosed as selling, general and administrative expenses from Altisource billings to Altisource Asset Management Corporation (“AAMC”) by $0.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2014.

Correcting these items on the face of the condensed consolidated statements of operations resulted in the disclosure of related party cost of revenue of $7.3 million and a decrease in previously disclosed related party selling, general and administrative expenses by $1.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2014.

In accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 250, Accounting Changes and Error Corrections, the Company evaluated the effect of the disclosure and presentation errors on its previously issued annual and quarterly financial statements, both qualitatively and quantitatively, and concluded that the related party disclosures in the Company’s previously issued annual and quarterly financial statements are not materially misstated.

Fair Value Measurements

Fair Value Measurements

Fair value is defined as an exit price, representing the amount that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The three-tier hierarchy for inputs used in measuring fair value, which prioritizes the inputs used in the methodologies of measuring fair value for assets and liabilities, is as follows:

Level 1 — Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities

Level 2 — Observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1

Level 3 — Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of assets or liabilities.

Financial assets and financial liabilities are classified based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurements. Our assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurements requires judgment, and may affect the valuation of the assets and liabilities being measured and their placement within the fair value hierarchy.

Future Adoption of New Accounting Pronouncement

Future Adoption of New Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2014, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contractswith Customers. This standard establishes a single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and supersedes most current revenue recognition guidance. The core principle of the new standard is an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. This new standard will be effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within that reporting period. Early adoption is not permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact this new guidance may have on its results of operations and financial position.

In February 2015, FASB issued ASU No. 2015-02, Consolidation: Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis. This standard addresses the consolidation of certain legal entities relative to current requirements under GAAP of a reporting entity to consolidate another legal entity in situations in which the reporting entity’s contractual rights do not give it the ability to act primarily on its own behalf, the reporting entity does not hold a majority of the legal entity’s voting rights or the reporting entity is not exposed to a majority of the legal entity’s economic benefits or obligations. This standard will be effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2015, including interim periods within that reporting period. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. If an entity early adopts the standard in an interim period, any adjustments should be reflected as of the beginning of the year that includes that interim period. The Company is currently evaluating the impact this new guidance may have on its results of operations and financial position.

In April 2015, FASB issued ASU No. 2015-03, Interest-Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30): Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs. This revised standard changes the presentation of debt issuance costs in financial statements. Under the ASU, an entity presents such costs in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the related debt liability rather than as an asset. This standard will be effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2015, including interim periods within that reporting period. Early adoption is permitted for financial statements that have not been previously issued. The Company does not expect the adoption of this standard to have a material impact on its results of operations or financial position.

Segment Reporting [Abstract]

SEGMENT REPORTING

SEGMENT REPORTING

Our business segments are based upon our organizational structure, which focuses primarily on the services offered, and are consistent with the internal reporting used by our Chief Executive Officer (our Chief Operating Decision Maker) to evaluate operating performance and to assess the allocation of our resources.

We classify our businesses into three reportable segments. The Mortgage Services segment provides services that span the mortgage and real estate lifecycle and are typically outsourced by loan servicers, loan originators, investors and other sellers of single family homes. The Financial Services segment provides collection and customer relationship management services primarily to debt originators and servicers (e.g., credit card, auto lending, retail credit and mortgage) and the utility, insurance and hotel industries. The Technology Services segmentprovides a portfolio of software, data analytics and infrastructure management services that support the efficient and compliant management of mortgage and real estate activities and marketplace transactions across the lifecycle. In addition, Corporate Items and Eliminations include eliminations of transactions between the reportable segments, interest expense and costs related to corporate support functions including executive, finance, legal, compliance, human resources, vendor management, risk and operational effectiveness and marketing. Intercompany transactions primarily consist of information technology infrastructure services.

Financial information for our segments is as follows:

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract]

COMMITMENTS, CONTINGENCIES AND REGULATORY MATTERS

COMMITMENTS, CONTINGENCIES AND REGULATORY MATTERS

Litigation

From time to time, we are involved in legal and administrative proceedings arising in the course of our business.  We record a liability for these matters if an unfavorable outcome is probable and the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated, including expected insurance coverage.  For proceedings where the reasonable estimate of loss is a range, we record a best estimate of loss within the range.

On September 8, 2014, the West Palm Beach Firefighter’s Pension Fund filed a putative securities class action suit against Altisource and certain of its officers and directors in the United States District Court for the Southern District of Florida alleging violations of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Rule 10b-5 with regard to disclosures concerning pricing and transactions with related parties that allegedly inflated Altisource share prices. The court subsequently appointed the Pension Fund of the International Union of Painters and Allied Trades District Council 35 and the Annuity Fund of the International Union of Painters and Allied Trades District Council 35 as Lead Plaintiffs. On January 30, 2015, Lead Plaintiffs filed an amended class action complaint which adds Ocwen Financial Corporation as a defendant, and seeks a determination that the action may be maintained as a class action on behalf of purchasers of the Company’s securities between April 25, 2013 and December 21, 2014 and an unspecified amount of damages. Altisource intends to vigorously defend this lawsuit.

On February 11, 2015, W.A. Sokolowski, an alleged shareholder of Ocwen Financial Corporation, filed an amended shareholder derivative complaint in the United States District Court for the Southern District of Florida against Ocwen Financial Corporation, certain of its officers and directors, Altisource and other companies. The suit seeks recovery of an unspecified amount of damages on behalf of Ocwen for alleged breaches of fiduciary duty by Ocwen’s current and former officers and directors, which were allegedly aided and abetted by Altisource and other defendants. Altisource, which has not been served with the suit, intends to vigorously defend the lawsuit.

Altisource is unable to predict the outcomes of these lawsuits or reasonably estimate the potential loss, if any, arising from the suits, given that a motion to dismiss was filed but has not yet been adjudicated in the first case, Altisource has not been served in the second case, discovery has not commenced in either case and significant legal and factual issues remain to be determined in both cases.

In addition to the matters referenced above, we are involved in legal actions in the course of our business, some of which seek monetary damages. We do not believe that the outcome of these proceedings, both individually and in the aggregate, will have a material impact on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

Regulatory Matters

Our business is subject to regulation and oversight by federal, state and local governmental authorities. We periodically receive subpoenas, civil investigative demands or other requests for information from regulatory agencies in connection with their regulatory or investigative authority. We are currently responding to such inquiries from federal and state agencies relating to certain aspects of our business. We believe it is premature to predict the potential outcome or to estimate any potential financial impact in connection with these inquiries.

Ocwen Related Matters

Ocwen is our largest customer and 59% of our revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2015 was related party revenue from Ocwen. Additionally, 24% of our revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2015 was earned on the portfolios serviced by Ocwen, but is not considered related party revenue because a party other than Ocwen selects Altisource as the service provider. Ocwen has been and is subject to a number of pending federal and state regulatory investigations, inquiries and requests for information that have or could result in adverse regulatory actions against Ocwen. For example, as a result of various regulatory actions, Ocwen is (i) subject to an independent auditor’s review of compliance with California servicing laws and has agreed not to obtain any new servicing rights in California until the regulator is satisfied with future document requests, (ii) operating under the oversight of an on-site operations monitor imposed by New York Department of Financial Services (“NYDFS”), which is assessing the adequacy and effectiveness of Ocwen’s operations, including information technology systems, (iii) required to perform benchmarking pricing studies for transactions with related parties, which are subject to periodic review by the monitor imposed by the NYDFS and (iv) subject to requirements under an agreement with the Consumer Finance Protection Bureau and various states attorneys general and agencies that imposed specific servicing guidelines and oversight by an independent national monitor, who is investigating the reliability of information Ocwen has provided. In addition to these matters, Ocwen continues to be subject to other regulatory investigations, inquiries and requests for information and pending legal proceedings, and Ocwen may become subject to future federal and state regulatory investigations, inquiries and requests for information, any of which could also result in adverse regulatory or other actions against Ocwen.

As a result of these various difficulties faced by Ocwen, its debt and servicer ratings have been downgraded. Further, certain bondholders of Ocwen-serviced residential mortgage-backed securities (“RMBS”) alleged that Ocwen, as servicer of certain mortgage-backed securities trusts, defaulted on these servicing agreements.

The foregoing may have significant and varied effects on Ocwen’s business and our continuing relationships with Ocwen. For example, Ocwen may be required to alter the way it conducts business, including the parties it contracts with for services (including information technology services), it may be required to seek changes to its existing pricing structure with related parties or otherwise, it may lose or sell some or all of its non-GSE servicing rights or subservicing arrangements or may lose one or more of its state servicing licenses. Additional regulatory actions may impose additional restrictions on or require changes in Ocwen’s business that would require it to sell assets or change its business operations. Any or all of these effects could result in our eventual loss of Ocwen as a customer or a reduction in the volume of services they purchase from us or the loss of other customers.

If any of the following events occurred, Altisource’s revenue would be significantly lower and our results of operations would be materially adversely affected, including from the impairment or write-off of goodwill, intangible assets, property and equipment, other assets and accounts receivable:

• Altisource loses Ocwen as a customer or there is a significant reduction in the volume of services they purchase from us

• Ocwen loses or sells a significant portion or all of its non-GSE servicing rights or subservicing arrangements

• Ocwen loses its state servicing licenses in states with a significant number of loans in Ocwen’s servicing portfolio

• The contractual relationship between Ocwen and Altisource changes significantly or there are significant changes to our

pricing to Ocwen for services from which we generate material revenue

Management cannot predict the outcome of the Ocwen related matters or the impact they may have on Altisource. However, in the event these Ocwen related matters materially negatively impact Altisource, we believe the impact to Altisource would occur over an extended period of time and the variable nature of our cost structure allows us to realign our cost structure in line with remaining revenue.

In this regard, we have a plan that allows us to efficiently execute on this realignment. We believe that transfers of Ocwen’s servicing rights to a successor servicer(s) would take an extended period of time because of the approval required from many parties, including regulators, rating agencies, RMBS trustees, lenders and others. During this period of time, we believe we would continue to generate revenue from the services we provide to the portfolio. Additionally, we have several growth initiatives that focus on diversifying and growing our revenue and customer base. Our major growth initiatives include:

• Attracting new clients to our comprehensive default related businesses

• Growing our origination services and technology businesses

• Expanding our innovative online real estate marketplaces

• Growing our property management and renovation services businesses

We have an established sales and marketing strategy to support each of these initiatives.

Management believes our plans, together with current liquidity and cash flows from operations will be sufficient to meet working capital, capital expenditures, debt service and other cash needs for at least the next year. However, there can be no assurance that our plans would be successful or our operations would be profitable.

Escrow and Trust Balances

We hold customers’ assets in escrow and trust accounts at various financial institutions pending completion of certain real estate activities.  We also hold cash in trust accounts at various financial institutions where contractual obligations mandate maintaining dedicated bank accounts for Financial Services collections.  These amounts are held in escrow and trust accounts for limited periods of time and are not included in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.  Amounts held in escrow and trust accounts were $86.8 million and $62.5 million at March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively.

TRANSACTIONS WITH RELATED PARTIES

TRANSACTIONS WITH RELATED PARTIES

Through January 16, 2015, William C. Erbey served as our Chairman as well as the Executive Chairman of Ocwen and Chairman of each of Home Loan Servicing Solutions, Ltd. (“HLSS”), Altisource Residential Corporation (“Residential”) and AAMC. Effective January 16, 2015, Mr. Erbey stepped down as the Executive Chairman of Ocwen and Chairman of each of Altisource, HLSS, Residential and AAMC and is no longer a member of the Board of Directors for any of these companies. As of March 31, 2015, Mr. Erbey owned or controlled approximately 30% of the common stock of Altisource, approximately 14% of the common stock of Ocwen, approximately 1% of the common stock of HLSS, approximately 4% of the common stock of Residential and approximately 28% of the common stock of AAMC. As of March 31, 2015, Mr. Erbey also held 857,543 options to purchase Altisource common stock (all of which were exercisable), 3,572,626 options to purchase Ocwen common stock (3,322,626 of which were exercisable) and 85,755 options to purchase AAMC common stock (all of which were exercisable). Accordingly, as a result of Mr. Erbey’s positions and the continuing common ownership, these companies have been and are related parties of Altisource.

Ocwen

Revenue

Ocwen is our largest customer. Ocwen purchases certain mortgage services and technology services from us under the terms of the master services agreements and amendments to the master services agreements (collectively, the “Service Agreements”) with terms extending through August 2025. The Service Agreements, among other things, contain a “most favored nation” provision and the parties to the Service Agreements have the right to renegotiate pricing. The Service Agreements also prohibit Ocwen from establishing fee-based businesses that would directly or indirectly compete with Altisource’s services with respect to the Homeward Residential, Inc. and Residential Capital, LLC portfolios. In addition, Ocwen purchases certain origination services from Altisource under an agreement that extends through January 2017. We settle amounts with Ocwen on a daily, weekly or monthly basis depending upon the nature of the service and when the service is provided.

Related party revenue primarily consists of revenue earned directly from Ocwen and revenue earned from the loans serviced by Ocwen when Ocwen designates us as the service provider. Related party revenue from Ocwen as a percentage of segment and consolidated revenue was as follows for the three months ended March 31:

	2015	2014
Mortgage Services	63%	69%
Financial Services	25%	26%
Technology Services	47%	35%
Consolidated revenue	59%	61%

We record revenue we earn from Ocwen under the Service Agreements at rates we believe to be comparable market rates as we believe they are consistent with the fees we charge to other customers and/or fees charged by our competitors for comparable services.

We earn additional revenue on the portfolios serviced by Ocwen that is not considered related party revenue when a party other than Ocwen selects Altisource as the service provider. For the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, we recognized revenue of $53.5 million and $54.7 million, respectively, on the portfolios serviced by Ocwen that is not considered related party revenue.

Cost of Revenue

At times, we use Ocwen’s contractors and/or employees to support Altisource related services. Ocwen generally bills us for these contractors and/or employees based on their fully-allocated cost. Additionally, through March 31, 2015, we purchased certain data relating to Ocwen’s servicing portfolio in connection with a Data Access and Services Agreement. The Data Access and Services Agreement could be renegotiated and could be canceled by either Altisource or Ocwen with 90 days prior written notice. Based upon our previously provided notice, the Data Access and Services Agreement was terminated effective March 31, 2015. Ocwen billed us a per asset fee for this data. For the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, Ocwen billed us $10.3 million and $7.3 million, respectively. These amounts are reflected as a component of cost of revenue in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

We provide certain other services to Ocwen and Ocwen provides certain other services to us in connection with Support Services Agreements. Prior to January 1, 2015, these services included such areas as human resources, vendor management, vendor oversight, corporate services, operational effectiveness, quality assurance, quantitative analytics, tax and treasury. For the three months ended March 31, 2015, these services included vendor management, corporate services and facility charges. The Support Services Agreement with Ocwen Mortgage Servicing, Inc. extends through September 2018 with automatic one-year renewals thereafter. The Support Services Agreement with Ocwen Financial Corporation extends through October 2017 with automatic one-year renewals thereafter. Billings for these services were generally based on the fully-allocated cost of providing the service based on an estimate of the time and expense of providing the service or estimates thereof. For the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, we billed Ocwen $0.6 million and $1.0 million, respectively, and Ocwen billed us $1.6 million and $1.2 million, respectively. These amounts are reflected as a component of selling, general and administrative expenses in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

HLSS

HLSS is a publicly traded company whose primary objective is the acquisition of mortgage servicing rights and related servicing advances, loans held for investment and other residential mortgage related assets. As of March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, HLSS owned, for a significant portion of Ocwen-serviced non-government-sponsored enterprise loans, (1) the rights to receive the servicing fees that Ocwen is entitled to receive and (2) associated servicing advances.

Under a support services agreement, we provide HLSS certain finance, human resources, tax and facilities services and we sell information technology services to HLSS. We billed HLSS $0.6 million and $0.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. Of these amounts, $0.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2015 (no comparative amount in 2014) is reflected in revenue in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and, for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, $0.1 million and $0.2 million, respectively, is reflected as a component of selling, general and administrative expenses in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

On February 22, 2015, HLSS and New Residential Investment Corp. (“NRZ”) announced they entered into a definitive agreement whereby NRZ would acquire all of the outstanding shares of HLSS, subject to shareholder approval and other customary closing conditions.

From March 10, 2015 to March 17, 2015, we purchased 1.6 million shares of HLSS common stock for $30.0 million in the open market. See Note 5.

On April 6, 2015, HLSS and NRZ announced they terminated the merger agreement announced on February 22, 2015 and entered into a purchase agreement under which NRZ acquired substantially all of the assets and assumed substantially all of the liabilities of HLSS. The asset purchase was consummated concurrently with signing of the purchase agreement. Furthermore, NRZ separately agreed to a multi-year extension of the servicing contracts with Ocwen. HLSS also announced that it adopted a plan of complete liquidation and dissolution. Additional information is contained in HLSS’ public filings.

Residential and AAMC

Residential and AAMC were separated from Altisource on December 21, 2012 and their equity was distributed to our shareholders on December 24, 2012 and they are each separate publicly traded companies. Residential is focused on acquiring and managing single family rental properties by acquiring sub-performing and non-performing residential mortgage loans as well as single family homes at or following the foreclosure sale throughout the United States. AAMC’s primary business is to provide asset management and certain corporate governance services to institutional investors. Its primary client currently is Residential.

For purposes of governing certain ongoing relationships between Altisource, Residential and AAMC, we entered into certain agreements with Residential and AAMC. We have agreements to provide Residential with renovation management, lease management, property management and REO asset management services. In addition, we have agreements with Residential and AAMC to provide services such as finance, human resources, facilities, technology and insurance risk management. Further, we have separate agreements for certain services related to income tax matters, trademark licenses and technology products and services.

For the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, we billed Residential $6.8 million and $0.8 million, respectively, under these services agreements. These amounts are reflected in revenue in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. This excludes revenue from services we provide to Residential’s loans serviced by Ocwen where we are retained by Ocwen. That revenue is included in Ocwen related party revenue. For the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, we billed AAMC $0.2 million and $0.3 million, respectively, under the services agreements. Of these amounts, less than $0.1 million in each period is reflected in revenue in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and, for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, $0.2 million and $0.3 million, respectively, is reflected as a component of selling, general and administrative expenses in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

AVAILABLE FOR SALE SECURITIES - INVESTMENT IN HLSS

AVAILABLE FOR SALE SECURITIES - INVESTMENT IN HLSS

During the three months ended March 31, 2015, we purchased 1.6 million shares of HLSS common stock for $30.0 million in the open market (1,613,125 shares at an average price per share of $18.58). This investment is classified as available for sale and reflected at fair value at the balance sheet date ($26.7 million as of March 31, 2015) (no comparative amount in 2014). Unrealized gains and losses on available for sale securities are reflected in other comprehensive income, unless there is an impairment that is other than temporary. In the event that a decline in market value is other than temporary, we record a charge to earnings and a new cost basis in the investment is established. Based on HLSS’ sale of substantially all of its assets and plan of complete liquidation and dissolution (see Note 2), we determined that our investment in HLSS is other than temporarily impaired. Accordingly, we recognized an other than temporary impairment loss on HLSS equity securities of $3.3 million in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations during the three months ended March 31, 2015. This amount reflects the difference between the cost and fair value of the HLSS equity securities as of March 31, 2015 (based on 1,613,125 shares at $16.54 per share).

On September 12, 2014, we acquired certain assets and assumed certain liabilities of Mortgage Builder Software, Inc. (“Mortgage Builder”) pursuant to a Purchase and Sale Agreement dated July 18, 2014 (the “Purchase and Sale Agreement”).

Pursuant to the terms of the Purchase and Sale Agreement, we paid $15.7 million at closing in cash (net of closing working capital adjustments). Additionally, the Purchase and Sale Agreement provides for the payment of up to $7.0 million in potential additional consideration (the “MB Earn-Out”) based on Adjusted Revenue (as defined in the Purchase and Sale Agreement) in the three consecutive 12-month periods following closing. At closing, we estimated the fair value of the MB Earn-Out to be $1.6 million, determined based on the present value of future estimated MB Earn-Out payments.

Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]

ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Description of Business

Altisource Portfolio Solutions S.A., together with its subsidiaries (which may be referred to as “Altisource,” the “Company,” “we,” “us” or “our”), is a premier marketplace and transaction solutions provider for the real estate, mortgage and consumer debt industries offering both distribution and content. We leverage proprietary business process, vendor and electronic payment management software and behavioral science based analytics to improve outcomes for marketplace participants.

We are incorporated under the laws of Luxembourg and are publicly traded on the NASDAQ Global Select Market under the symbol “ASPS.” 

We conduct our operations through three reportable segments: Mortgage Services, Financial Services and Technology Services.  In addition, we report our corporate related expenditures and eliminations separately (see Note 20 for a description of our business segments).

Basis of Presentation

The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) Regulation S-X. Accordingly, these financial statements do not include all of the information and notes required by GAAP for complete consolidated financial statements. In the opinion of management, the interim data includes all normal recurring adjustments considered necessary to fairly state the results for the interim periods presented. The preparation of interim condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP 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 our interim condensed consolidated financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Intercompany and inter-segment transactions and accounts have been eliminated in consolidation. Certain prior year amounts reported by the Mortgage Services and Technology Services segments have been reclassified to conform with the current year presentation.

The Mortgage Partnership of America, L.L.C. (“MPA”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Altisource, serves as the manager of Best Partners Mortgage Cooperative, Inc. doing business as Lenders One Mortgage Cooperative (“Lenders One”). MPA provides services to Lenders One under a management agreement that ends on December 31, 2025. The management agreement between MPA and Lenders One^® members, pursuant to which MPA is the management company of Lenders One, represents a variable interest in a variable interest entity. MPA is the primary beneficiary of Lenders One as it has the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact Lenders One’s economic performance and the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits from Lenders One. As a result, Lenders One is presented in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements on a consolidated basis with the interests of the members reflected as non-controlling interests. As of March 31, 2015, Lenders One had total assets of $8.8 million and total liabilities of $7.7 million.  As of December 31, 2014, Lenders One had total assets of $7.7 million and total liabilities of $6.7 million.

These interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto contained in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014, filed with the SEC on March 2, 2015, which contains a summary of our significant accounting policies. Certain footnote detail in the Form 10-K is omitted from the information included herein.

Correction of Immaterial Errors

As previously disclosed, during 2014 we determined that while we properly identified our related parties in previously issued financial statements, disclosures of certain immaterial related party expenses were omitted. We corrected the previously presented disclosures of related party expenses in Note 2 - Transactions with Related Parties and on the face of the condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2014. The impact of correcting these items in the notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements had the effect of:

• increasing the amounts disclosed as related party cost of revenue from Ocwen Financial Corporation and its subsidiaries (“Ocwen”) by $7.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2014;

• increasing the amounts disclosed as selling, general and administrative expenses from Ocwen billings to Altisource by $0.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2014;

• decreasing the amounts disclosed as selling, general and administrative expenses from Altisource billings to Ocwen by $0.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2014; and

• decreasing the amounts disclosed as selling, general and administrative expenses from Altisource billings to Altisource Asset Management Corporation (“AAMC”) by $0.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2014.

Correcting these items on the face of the condensed consolidated statements of operations resulted in the disclosure of related party cost of revenue of $7.3 million and a decrease in previously disclosed related party selling, general and administrative expenses by $1.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2014.

In accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 250, Accounting Changes and Error Corrections, the Company evaluated the effect of the disclosure and presentation errors on its previously issued annual and quarterly financial statements, both qualitatively and quantitatively, and concluded that the related party disclosures in the Company’s previously issued annual and quarterly financial statements are not materially misstated.

Fair Value Measurements

Fair value is defined as an exit price, representing the amount that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The three-tier hierarchy for inputs used in measuring fair value, which prioritizes the inputs used in the methodologies of measuring fair value for assets and liabilities, is as follows:

Level 1 — Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities

Level 2 — Observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1

Level 3 — Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of assets or liabilities.

Financial assets and financial liabilities are classified based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurements. Our assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurements requires judgment, and may affect the valuation of the assets and liabilities being measured and their placement within the fair value hierarchy.

Future Adoption of New Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2014, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contractswith Customers. This standard establishes a single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and supersedes most current revenue recognition guidance. The core principle of the new standard is an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. This new standard will be effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within that reporting period. Early adoption is not permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact this new guidance may have on its results of operations and financial position.

In February 2015, FASB issued ASU No. 2015-02, Consolidation: Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis. This standard addresses the consolidation of certain legal entities relative to current requirements under GAAP of a reporting entity to consolidate another legal entity in situations in which the reporting entity’s contractual rights do not give it the ability to act primarily on its own behalf, the reporting entity does not hold a majority of the legal entity’s voting rights or the reporting entity is not exposed to a majority of the legal entity’s economic benefits or obligations. This standard will be effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2015, including interim periods within that reporting period. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. If an entity early adopts the standard in an interim period, any adjustments should be reflected as of the beginning of the year that includes that interim period. The Company is currently evaluating the impact this new guidance may have on its results of operations and financial position.

In April 2015, FASB issued ASU No. 2015-03, Interest-Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30): Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs. This revised standard changes the presentation of debt issuance costs in financial statements. Under the ASU, an entity presents such costs in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the related debt liability rather than as an asset. This standard will be effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2015, including interim periods within that reporting period. Early adoption is permitted for financial statements that have not been previously issued. The Company does not expect the adoption of this standard to have a material impact on its results of operations or financial position.

SHAREHOLDERS’ EQUITY AND SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION

Stock Repurchase Plan

On February 28, 2014, our shareholders approved a new stock repurchase program, which replaced the previous stock repurchase program. Under the new program, we are authorized to purchase up to 3.4 million shares of our common stock, based on a limit of 15% of the outstanding shares of common stock on the date of approval, in the open market, at a minimum price of $1.00 per share and a maximum price of $500.00 per share.  This is in addition to amounts previously purchased under the prior programs. From authorization of the previous programs through March 31, 2015, we have purchased approximately 6.4 million shares of our common stock in the open market at an average price of $77.69 per share.  We purchased 0.2 million shares of common stock at an average price of $23.44 per share during the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 0.3 million shares at an average price of $109.97 per share during the three months ended March 31, 2014. As of March 31, 2015, approximately 1.0 million shares of common stock remain available for repurchase under the new program. Our senior secured term loan limits the amount we can spend on share repurchases in any year and may prevent repurchases in certain circumstances. As of March 31, 2015, approximately $285 million was available to repurchase our common stock under our senior secured term loan.

Share-Based Compensation

We issue share-based awards in the form of stock options and certain other equity-based awards for certain employees and officers.  We recorded share-based compensation expense of $0.4 million and $0.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

Outstanding share-based compensation currently consists primarily of stock option grants that are a combination of service-based and market-based options.

Service-Based Options.  These options are granted at fair value on the date of grant. The options generally vest over four years with equal annual cliff-vesting and expire on the earlier of ten years after the date of grant or following termination of service. A total of 0.7 million service-based awards were outstanding at March 31, 2015.

Market-Based Options.  These option grants have two components, each of which vests only upon the achievement of certain criteria. The first component, which we refer to internally as “ordinary performance” grants, consists of two-thirds of the market-based grant and begins to vest if the stock price is at least double the exercise price, as long as the stock price realizes a compounded annual gain of at least 20% over the exercise price. The remaining third of the market-based options, which we refer to internally as “extraordinary performance” grants, begins to vest if the stock price is at least triple the exercise price, as long as the stock price realizes a compounded annual gain of at least 25% over the exercise price. The vesting schedule for all market-based awards is 25% upon achievement of the criteria and the remaining 75% in three equal annual installments. A total of 1.9 million market-based awards were outstanding at March 31, 2015.

The Company granted less than 0.1 million stock options (at a weighted average exercise price of $26.42 per share) during the three months ended March 31, 2015. There were no options granted during the three months ended March 31, 2014.

The fair value of the service-based options was determined using the Black-Scholes option pricing model and the fair value of the market-based options was determined using a lattice (binomial) model. The following assumptions were used to determine the fair value as of the grant date:

	Three months ended   March 31, 2015
	Black-Scholes		Binomial
Risk-free interest rate (%)	1.67	%	0.02% - 2.01%
Expected stock price volatility (%)	55.06	%	55.06	%
Expected dividend yield	—		—
Expected option life (in years)	6.25		—
Contractual life (in years)	—		14
Fair value	$11.69		$10.68 - $11.93

The following table summarizes the weighted average fair value of stock options granted, the total intrinsic value of stock options exercised and the grant date fair value of stock options vested during the period presented:

	Three months ended March 31,
(in thousands, except per share amounts)	2015		2014
Weighted average fair value at grant date per share	$	11.56	N/A
Intrinsic value of options exercised	176		2,690
Grant date fair value of options vested during the period	264		391

N/A - not applicable.

Share-based compensation expense is recorded net of estimated forfeiture rates ranging from 1% to 10%.

As of March 31, 2015, estimated unrecognized compensation costs related to share-based payments amounted to $3.2 million, which we expect to recognize over a weighted average remaining requisite service period of approximately 3.3 years.

The following table summarizes the activity related to our stock options:
