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

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the basis of accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. (“U.S. GAAP”). The preparation of financial statements in conformity with these accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Significant estimates include acquisition purchase price allocations, the fair value of goodwill, the realization of deferred tax assets, and liabilities, acquisition related liabilities, fair value of stock based compensation, liabilities for pension and postretirement benefits, and the estimate for the allowance for doubtful accounts. Actual results may ultimately differ from those estimates. Certain reclassificationscombinations have been made related to federal and state income taxes and to the segment reporting within Decision Analytics’ revenue categories in the notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements and the notes to conform to the respective 20122013 presentation.

The condensed consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 20122013 and for the three and six months ended June 30, 20122013 and 2011,2012, in the opinion of management, include all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring accruals, to present fairly the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows. The operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 20122013 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. The condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes for the three and six months ended June 30, 20122013 have been prepared on the same basis as and should be read in conjunction with the annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011.2012. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The Company believes the disclosures made are adequate to keep the information presented from being misleading.

4. Fair Value Measurements:

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

 

Level 1 -  Assets or liabilities for which the identical item is traded on an active exchange, such as publicly-traded instruments.

Level 2 -  Assets and liabilities valued based on observable market data for similar instruments.

Level 3 -  Assets or liabilities for which significant valuation assumptions are not readily observable in the market; instruments valued based on the best available data, some of which isare internally-developed, and considers risk premiums that market participant would require.

The following table provides information for such assets and liabilities as of June 30, 20122013 and December 31, 2011.2012. The fair values of cash and cash equivalents (other than money-market funds, which are recorded on a reported net asset value basis disclosed below), accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, acquisition related liabilities prior to the adoption of ASC 805,Business Combinations(“ASC 805”), short-term debt, and short-term debt expected to be refinanced approximate their carrying amounts because of the short-term maturitynature of these instruments.

Goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives are subject to impairment testing annually as of June 30, or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be fully recoverable. Goodwill impairment testing compares the carrying value of each reporting unit to its fair value. If the fair value of the reporting unit exceeds the carrying value of the net assets, including goodwill assigned to that reporting unit, goodwill is not impaired. If the carrying value of the reporting unit’s net assets including goodwill exceeds the fair value of the reporting unit, then the Company will determine the implied fair value of the reporting unit’s goodwill. If the carrying value of a reporting unit’s goodwill exceeds its implied fair value, then an impairment loss is recorded for the difference between the carrying amount and the implied fair value of goodwill. The Company completed the required annual impairment test as of June 30, 2012,2013, which resulted in no impairment of goodwill.

The computation of diluted EPS is similar to the computation of basic EPS except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding, using the treasury stock method, if the dilutive potential common shares, including stock options and nonvested restricted stock, had been issued.

The following is a reconciliation of the numerators and denominators of the basic and diluted EPS computations for the three and six months ended June 30, 20122013 and 2011:2012:

10. Equity Compensation Plans:

All of the Company’s grantedoutstanding equity awards, including outstanding stock options and restricted stock, are covered under the 2013 Incentive Plan, 2009 Incentive Plan or the Option1996 Incentive Plan. Awards under the 2013 Incentive Plan may include one or more of the following types: (i) stock options (both nonqualified and incentive stock options), (ii) stock appreciation rights, (iii) restricted stock, (iv) restricted stock units, (v) performance awards (including cash), and (vi) other share based awards, and (vii) cash.awards. Employees, directors and consultants are eligible for awards under the 2013 Incentive Plan. On July 1, 2011, theThe Company began issuing Class Aissued common stock under these plans from the Company’s treasury shares. On May 15, 2013, the Company’s shareholders approved the 2013 Incentive Plan effective March 15, 2013. There are 15,700,000 shares of common stock available for issuance under the 2013 Incentive Plan. Shares subject to awards granted subsequent to March 15, 2013, whether under the 2013 Incentive Plan or the 2009 Incentive Plan, with certain exceptions, will reduce the number of shares available for issuance under the 2013 Incentive Plan. Cash received from stock option exercises for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 was $30,528 and 2011 was $33,453, and $18,032, respectively.

On JulyApril 1, 2012,2013, the Company granted 3,174 shares of Class A common stock, 23,027804,726 nonqualified stock options that were immediately vested and 96,750 nonqualified208,881 shares of restricted stock options with a one year service vesting period,to key employees, as well as 20,445 deferred stock units to the directors of the Company. These options have an exercise price equal to the closing price of the Company’s Class A common stock on the grant date and a ten year contractual term. As of June 30, 2012, there were 5,941,673 shares of Class A common stock reserved and available for future issuance under the plans.

On April 1, 2012, the Company granted 785,079 nonqualified stock options and 229,009 shares of restricted stock to key employees. The nonqualified stock options have an exercise price equal to the closing price of the Company’s Class A common stock on March 30, 2012,the grant date, with a ten-year contractual term and a service vesting period of four years. The restricted stock is valued at the closing price of the Company’s Class A common stock on March 30, 2012the grant date and has a service vesting period of four years. The Company recognizes the expense of the restricted stock ratably over the periods in which the restrictions lapse.vesting period. The restricted stock is not assignable or transferrable until it becomes vested. The deferred stock units are valued at the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the grant date, have a one-year vesting period, and will be distributed to the directors upon retirement or other separation from the board of directors.

On July 1, 2013, the Company granted 7,535 shares of common stock, 27,494 nonqualified stock options that were immediately vested, 54,032 nonqualified stock options with a one-year service vesting period, and 11,319 deferred stock units to the directors of the Company. The nonqualified stock options have an exercise price equal to the closing price of the Company’s common stock at the grant date and a ten-year contractual term. As of June 30, 2013, there were 14,419,876 shares of common stock reserved and available for future issuance under the 2013 Incentive Plan.

The fair value of the stock options granted during the six months ended June 30, 20122013 and 20112012 was estimated using a Black-Scholes valuation model that uses the weighted average assumptions noted in the following table:

Weighted average grant date fair value per stock option

 $13.70   $10.48    $15.87   $13.70  

The expected term for a majority of the stock options granted was estimated based on studies of historical experience and projected exercise behavior. However, for certain stock options granted, for which no historical

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

Intrinsic value for stock options is calculated based on the exercise price of the underlying awards and the quoted price of Verisk’sthe Company’s common stock as of the reporting date. The aggregate intrinsic value of stock options outstanding and exercisable at June 30, 2012 was $459,054 and $348,780, respectively. In accordance with ASC 718,Stock Compensation, excess tax benefit from exercised stock options is recorded as an increase to additional paid-in capital and a corresponding reduction in income taxes payable. This tax benefit is calculated as the excess of the intrinsic value of options exercised in excess of compensation recognized for financial reporting purposes. The amount of the tax benefit that has been realized, as a result of those excess tax benefits, is presented as a financing cash inflow within the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of cash flows. For the six months ended June 30, 20122013 and 2011,2012, the Company recorded excess tax benefit from stock options exercised of $49,974$32,211 and $16,530,$49,974, respectively. The Company realized $31,624$63,934 and $5,470$31,624 of tax benefit within the Company’s quarterly tax payments through June 30, 20122013 and 2011,2012, respectively.

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

As of June 30, 2012,2013, there was $47,945$50,716 of total unrecognized compensation costs, exclusive of the impact of vesting upon retirement eligibility, related to nonvested share-based compensation arrangements granted under

the 2009 and 2013 Incentive Plan and the Option Plan.Plans. That cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 2.752.85 years. As of June 30, 2012,2013, there were 5,287,7642,559,626 and 335,112393,119 nonvested stock options and restricted stock, respectively, of which 4,673,4492,116,211 and 285,007316,002 are expected to vest. The total grant date fair value of options vested during the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 was $8,581 and 2011 was $10,053, and $9,838, respectively. The total grant date fair value of restricted stock vested during the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 was $2,849 and 2011 was $1,263, and $305, respectively.

On May 16, 2012, theThe Company’s stockholders approved the implementation of an employee stock purchase plan (“ESPP”). The ESPP will commence commenced on October 1, 2012 and offeroffers eligible employees the opportunity to authorize payroll deductions of up to 20.00% of their regular base salary and up to 50.00% of their short-term incentive compensation, both of which in total may not exceed $25 in any calendar year, to purchase shares of the Company’s Class A common stock at a 5.00% discount of its fair market value at the time of purchase. In accordance with ASC 718, the ESPP is noncompensatory as the purchase discount is 5.00% or less from the fair market value, substantially all employees that meet limited employment qualifications may participate, and it incorporates no option features. During the six months ended June 30, 2013, the Company issued 15,173 shares of common stock at a weighted discounted price of $57.56.

On April 20, 2013, the employee stock ownership plan (“ESOP”) refinanced its intercompany loan between the Company and the KSOP, thereby extending the allocation of the remaining unreleased shares through 2016. As a part of this new loan agreement, the Company is required to contribute an additional $9,000, plus interest, of cash or shares to the ESOP by 2016. Earlier contribution is at the Company’s discretion.

11. Pension and Postretirement Benefits:

The Company maintained a qualified defined benefit pension plan for substantially allcertain of its employees hired prior to March 1, 2005 through membership in the Pension Plan for Insurance Organizations (the “Pension Plan”), a multiple-employer trust. Future benefits provided to participants within the Pension Plan are determined usingThe Company has applied a cash balance formula.formula to determine future benefits. Under the cash balance formula, each participant has an account, which is credited annually based on salary rates determined by years of service, as well as the interest earned on theirthe previous year-end cash balance. The Profit Sharing Plan, a defined contribution plan, replaced the Pension Plan for all eligible employees hired on or after March 1, 2005. The Company also has a nonqualifiednon-qualified supplemental cash balance plan (“SERP”) for certain employees. The SERP is funded from the general assets of the Company.

On Effective February 29, 2012, the Company instituted a hard freeze, which eliminated all future compensation and servicesservice credits, to all participants in the Pension Plan and SERP. Accordingly, the Company remeasured the assets and liabilities of both plans and recognized a curtailment, resulting in a net reduction in the unfunded pension liability of $10,466 as of March 31, 2012. There is no longer a service cost component in the net periodic benefit cost as all participants are considered inactive in both plans. The Company generally amortized the actuarial gains and losses for the plans over the average future service period of the active participants. However, beginning February 29, 2012, the Company is amortizing the actuarial losses over the remaining life of the inactive plan participants since all are now considered inactive. The February 29, 2012 remeasurement utilized a weighted average discount rate of 4.73%, compared to the rate of 4.98% used for the year ended December 31, 2011.

The Company also provides certain healthcare and life insurance benefits for both active and retired employees. The Postretirement Health and Life Insurance Plan (the “Postretirement Plan”) is contributory, requiring participants to pay a stated percentage of the premium for coverage. As of October 1, 2001, the Postretirement Plan was amended to freeze benefits for current retirees and certain other employees at the January 1, 2002 level. Also, as of October 1, 2001, the Postretirement Plan had a curtailment, which eliminated retiree life insurance for all active employees and healthcare benefits for almost all future retirees, effective January 1, 2002.

The components of net periodic benefit (credit)/(benefit) cost and the amounts recognized in other comprehensive income for the three and six months ended June 30 2012 and 2011 are summarized below:

12. Segment Reporting:

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

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

Decision Analytics:The Company develops solutions that its customers use to analyze the three key processes in managing risk: ‘prediction of loss’, ‘detection and prevention of fraud’ and ‘quantification of loss’. The Company’s combination of algorithms and analytic methods incorporates its proprietary data to generate solutions in each of these three categories. In most cases, the Company’s customers integrate the solutions into their models, formulas or underwriting criteria in order to predict potential loss events, ranging from hurricanes and earthquakes to unanticipated healthcare claims. The Company develops catastrophe and extreme event models and offers solutions covering natural and man-made risks, including acts of terrorism. The Company also develops solutions that allow customers to quantify costs after loss events occur. Fraud solutions include data on claim histories, analysis of mortgage applications to identify misinformation, analysis of claims to find emerging patterns of fraud, and identification of suspicious claims in the insurance, mortgage and healthcare sectors. Effective December 31, 2011, theThe Company provided additional disclosure about itsdiscloses revenue within Decision Analyticsthis segment based on the industry vertical groupings of insurance, mortgage and financial services, healthcare and specialized markets. Previously, the Company disclosed revenues based on the classification of its solutions as fraud identification and detection solutions, loss prediction solutions and loss quantification solutions.

Risk Assessment:The Company is the leading provider of statistical, actuarial and underwriting data for the U.S. P&C insurance industry. The Company’s databases include cleansed and standardized records describing premiums and losses in insurance transactions, casualty and property risk attributes for commercial buildings and their occupants and fire suppression capabilities of municipalities. The Company uses this data to create policy language and proprietary risk classifications that are industry standards and to generate prospective loss cost estimates used to price insurance policies. Effective December 31, 2012, the Company combined the statistical agency and data services and actuarial services into industry-standard insurance programs within the Risk Assessment segment. There have been no changes in reportable segments in accordance with ASC 280-10 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012.

The two aforementioned operating segments represent the segments for which separate discrete financial information is available and upon which operating results are regularly evaluated by the CODM in order to assess

performance and allocate resources. The Company uses EBITDA as the profitability measure for making decisions regarding ongoing operations. EBITDA is net income before interest expense, provision for income taxes, depreciation and amortization of fixed and intangible assets. In the second quarter of 2012, the Company changed its definition of EBITDA such that it only reflects the definition noted and no longer excludes investment income/(loss) and realized gain/(loss) on securities, net, for all periods presented. EBITDA is the measure of operating results used to assess corporate performance and optimal utilization of debt and acquisitions. Operating expenses consist of direct and indirect costs principally related to personnel, facilities, software license fees, consulting, travel, and third-party information services. Indirect costs are generally allocated to the segments using fixed rates established by management based upon estimated expense contribution levels and other assumptions that management considers reasonable. The Company does not allocate interest expense and provision for income taxes, since these items are not considered in evaluating the segment’s overall operating performance. The CODM does not evaluate the financial performance of each segment based on assets. On a geographic basis, no individual country outside of the U.S. accounted for 1.00% or more of the Company’s consolidated revenue for either the three and six months ended June 30, 20122013 or 2011.2012. No individual country outside of the U.S. accounted for 1.00% or more of total consolidated long-term assets as of June 30, 20122013 or December 31, 2011.2012.

The following table provides the Company’s revenue and operating income performance by reportable segment for the three and six months ended June 30, 20122013 and 2011,2012, as well as reconciliations to income before income taxes for all periods presented in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations:

14. Commitments and Contingencies:

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

Citizens Insurance Litigation

On February 28, 2012, the Company was served with a complaint filed in the Florida State Circuit Court for Pasco County naming Citizens Property Insurance Corporation (“Citizens”) and the Company’s Xactware subsidiary. The complaint alleged a class action seeking declaratory and injunctive relief against defendants and was brought on behalf of “all individuals who have purchased a new or renewed a property casualty insurance policy from Citizens” where Citizens used Xactware’s 360Value product to determine replacement value of the property. On March 12, 2012, plaintiffs served their First Amended Complaint on Xactware additionally alleging that: (1) Citizens and Xactware knowingly made false statements to the plaintiff class concerning their properties’ replacement cost values; (2) fraud against Xactware based on its alleged misrepresentation of the replacement value of plaintiffs’ properties; (3) conspiracy against Citizens and Xactware based on their alleged artificial inflation of the value of plaintiffs’ properties; and (4) products liability against Xactware, claiming Xactware defectively designed 360Value as used in the Florida insurance market. The First Amended Complaint sought declaratory and injunctive relief, as well as unspecified monetary damages alleged to be in excess of $1,000 for the class. On May 31, 2012 plaintiff served his Second Amended Complaint which no longer alleges a class action, but continues to allege: (1) that Citizens and Xactware artificially inflated the replacement cost value of plaintiff’s property using 360Value; (2) fraud by Xactware; (3) a conspiracy between Citizens and Xactware; and (4) products liability against Xactware. The Second Amended Complaint similarly seeks declaratory and injunctive relief as well as damages representing the difference between the premium plaintiff paid to Citizens using 360Value and what the premium should have been if Citizens used an accurate replacement cost value for plaintiff’s property.

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

Intellicorp Records, Inc. Litigation

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

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

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

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

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

In April and December 2011, Verisk Analytics, Inc. (the “Parent Company”) registered senior notes with full and unconditional and joint and several guarantees by certain of its 100 percent wholly-owned subsidiaries and issued certain other debt securities with full and unconditional and joint and several guarantees by certain of its subsidiaries. Accordingly, presented below is the condensed consolidating financial information for (i) the Parent Company, (ii) the guarantor subsidiaries of the Parent Company on a combined basis and (iii) all other non-guarantor subsidiaries of the Parent Company on a combined basis, as of June 30, 20122013 and December 31, 20112012 and for the three and six months ended June 30, 20122013 and 2011.2012. The condensed consolidating financial information has been presented using the equity method of accounting, to show the nature of assets held, results of operations and cash flows of the Parent Company, the guarantor subsidiaries and the non-guarantor subsidiaries assuming all guarantor subsidiaries provide both full and unconditional, and joint and several guarantees to the Parent Company at the beginning of the periods presented. Effective as of December 31, 2011, ISO Staff Services, Inc. (“ISOSS”), a guarantor of the senior notes, merged with and into ISO, also a guarantor of the senior notes, pursuant to which ISO was the surviving corporation. By virtue of the merger, ISO expressly assumed all of the obligations of ISOSS, including the guarantee by ISOSS of the senior notes. The Company corrected certain classifications on the Condensed Consolidating Statement of Cash Flows for the six-month period ended June 30, 2011 within the Guarantor Subsidiaries, which removed a gross-up in the repayments received from other subsidiaries and repayments of advances to other subsidiaries reflected in cash flows from investing activities and cash flows from financing activities, respectively.

On July 2, 2012, the Company acquired the net assets of Aspect Loss Prevention, LLC (“ALP”), a provider of loss prevention and analytic solutions to the retail, entertainment, and food industries, for a net cash purchase price of approximately $6,917 and funded $800 of indemnity escrows. This acquisition further advances the Company’s position within the Decision Analytics segment as a provider of data, analytics, and decision–support solutions in the insurance industry. The cash paid will be adjusted subsequent to close to reflect final balances of certain working capital accounts and other closing adjustments. Due to the limited time since the acquisition date and limitations on access to ALP information prior to the acquisition date, the initial accounting for the business combination is incomplete at this time. As a result, the Company is unable to provide amounts recognized as of the acquisition date for major classes of assets and liabilities acquired and resulting from the transaction, including the information required for contingencies, intangible assets and goodwill. This information will be included in the quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the nine months ending September 30, 2012.

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

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our historical financial statements and the related notes included in our annual report on Form 10-K, or 2012 10-K, dated and filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 28, 2012.26, 2013. This discussion contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results may differ materially from those discussed in or implied by any of the forward-looking statements as a result of various factors.factors, including but not limited to those listed under “Risk Factors” and “Special Note Regarding Forward Looking Statements” in our 2012 10-K.

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

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

We organize our business in two segments: Risk Assessment and Decision Analytics. Our Risk Assessment segment provides statistical, actuarial and underwriting data for the U.S. P&C insurance industry. Our Risk Assessment segment revenues represented approximately 40%37% and 44%40% of our revenues for the six months ended June 30, 20122013 and 2011,2012, respectively. Our Decision Analytics segment provides solutions to our customers use to analyze the processeswithin four vertical market-related groupings of the Verisk Risk Analytics Framework: loss prediction, fraud identificationinsurance, financial services, healthcare, and detection, and loss quantification.specialized markets. Our Decision Analytics segment revenues represented approximately 60%63% and 56%60% of our revenues for the six months ended June 30, 20122013 and 2011,2012, respectively.

Executive Summary

Key Performance Metrics

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

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

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

Revenues

We earn revenues through subscriptions, long-term agreements and on a transactional basis. Subscriptions for our solutions are generally paid in advance of rendering services either quarterly or in full upon commencement of the subscription period, which is usually for one year and automatically renewed each year.

As a result, the timing of our cash flows generally precedes our recognition of revenues and income and our cash flow from operations tends to be higher in the first quarter as we receive subscription payments. Examples of these arrangements include subscriptions that allow our customers to access our standardized coverage language, our claims fraud database or our actuarial services throughout the subscription period. For our subscriptions arrangements, we experience minimal revenue seasonality within the business. Our long-term agreements are generally for periods of three to sevenfive years. We recognize revenue from subscriptions ratably over the term of the subscription and most long-term agreements are recognized ratably over the term of the agreement.

Certain of our solutions are also paid for by our customers on a transactional basis. For example, we have solutions that allow our customers to access fraud detection tools in the context of an individual mortgage application or loan, obtain property-specific rating and underwriting information to price a policy on a commercial building, or compare a P&C insurance, medical or workers’ compensation claim with information in our databases. For each of six-month periodsthe six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, approximately 32% and 2011, 31% of our revenues, respectively, were derived from providing transactional solutions. We earn transactional revenues as our solutions are delivered or services performed. In general, transactions are billed monthly at the end of each month.

Approximately 87%88% and 84%87% of the revenues in our Risk Assessment segment for the six-month periodssix months ended June 30, 20122013 and 2011,2012, respectively, were derived from subscriptions and long-term agreements for our solutions. Our customers in this segment include most of the P&C insurance providers in the United States. Approximately 57% of the revenues in our Decision Analytics segment, for each ofboth the six-month periodssix months ended June 30, 20122013 and 2011,2012, were derived from subscriptions and long-term agreements for our solutions. In this segment, our tools servicecustomer bases are within the insurance, healthcare, mortgage and financial services, and specialized markets verticals.

Principal Operating Costs and Expenses

Personnel expenses are the major component of both our cost of revenues and selling, general and administrative expenses. Personnel expenses include salaries, benefits, incentive compensation, equity compensation costs, (described under “Equity Compensation Costs” below), sales commissions, employment taxes, recruiting costs, and outsourced temporary agency costs, which represented 65%62% and 66%65% of our total expenses for the six months ended June 30, 20122013 and 2011,2012, respectively.

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

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

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

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

Description of Acquisitions

We acquired four businesses since January 1, 2011. As a result of thesethe below acquisitions, our consolidated results of operations may not be comparable between periods. See Note 5 in our condensed consolidated financial statements included in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q for furthermore information.

On December 20, 2012, we acquired the net assets of Insurance Risk Management Solutions, or IRMS. IRMS provided integrated property risk assessment technology underlying one of our GIS (geographic information system) underwriting solutions. At the end of 2012, the long-term contract (since 1992) with IRMS was expiring and precipitated a change in our business relationship. Instead of continuing forward with a new services agreement, we acquired the technology and service assets of IRMS as this will enable us to better manage, enhance and continue to use the solutions as part of our Risk Assessment segment.

On August 31, 2012, we acquired Argus Information & Advisory Services, LLC, or Argus, a provider of information, competitive benchmarking, scoring solutions, analytics, and customized services to financial institutions and regulators in North America, Latin America, and Europe. Argus leverages its comprehensive payment data sets and provides proprietary solutions to a client base that includes credit and debit card issuers, retail banks and other consumer financial services providers, payment processors, insurance companies and other industry stakeholders. Within our Decision Analytics segment, this acquisition enhances our position as a provider of data, analytics, and decision-support solutions to financial institutions globally.

On July 2, 2012, we acquired the net assets of Aspect Loss Prevention, LLC, or ALP, a provider of loss prevention and analytic solutions to the retail, entertainment, and food industries. Within our Decision Analytics segment, this acquisition further advances our position as a provider of data, crime analytics, and decision-support solutions in the insurance industry. Due to the timing of this acquisition, there was no impact on our income statement for ALP for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012.solutions.

On March 30, 2012, we acquired 100% of the stock of MediConnect Global, Inc., or MediConnect, a service provider of medical record retrieval, digitization, coding, extraction, and analysis. Within our Decision Analytics segment, MediConnect further supports our objective to be the leading provider of data, analytics, and decision-support solutions to the healthcare and property casualty industries.

On June 17, 2011, we acquired the net assets of Health Risk Partners, LLC, or HRP, a provider of solutions to optimize revenue, ensure compliance and improve quality of care for Medicare Advantage and Medicaid health plans. Within our Decision Analytics segment, this acquisition further advances our position as a major provider of data, analytics, and decision-support solutions to the healthcare industry.

On April 27, 2011, we acquired 100% of the common stock of Bloodhound Technologies, Inc. or Bloodhound, a provider of real-time pre-adjudication medical claims editing. Within our Decision Analytics segment, Bloodhound addresses the need of healthcare payers to control fraud and waste in a real-time claims-processing environment, and these capabilities align with our existing fraud identification tools in the healthcare vertical market.

Equity Compensation Costs

We have a leveraged ESOP, funded with intercompany debt that includes 401(k), ESOP and profit sharing components to provide employees with equity participation. We make quarterly cash contributions to the plan equal to the debt service requirements. As the debt is repaid, shares are released to the ESOP to fund 401(k) matching and profit sharing contributions and the remainder is allocated annually to active employees in proportion to their eligible compensation in relation to total participants’ eligible compensation. We had no ESOP allocation expense for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011. We accrue compensation expense over the reporting period equal to the fair value of the ESOP loan collateral to be released to the ESOP.

The amount of our equity compensation costs recognized for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 is as follows:

In addition, the portion of the ESOP allocation expense related to the appreciation of the value of the shares in the ESOP above the value of those shares when the ESOP was first established is not tax deductible.

Under the terms of our approved equity compensation plans, stock options and other equity awards may be granted to employees. Prior to our IPO, we granted to key employees nonqualified stock options covered under the Insurance Services Office, Inc. 1996 Incentive Plan, or the Option Plan. Subsequent to the IPO, equity awards, including nonqualified stock options and restricted stock, granted to key employees are covered under the Verisk Analytics, Inc. 2009 Equity Incentive Plan, or the Incentive Plan. All of our outstanding stock options and restricted stock are covered under the Incentive Plan or the Option Plan. See Note 10 in our condensed consolidated financial statements included in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q.

We follow the substantive vesting period approach for awards granted after January 1, 2005, which requires that stock based compensation expense be recognized over the period from the date of grant to the date when the award is no longer contingent on the employee providing additional service. For the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, we recognized $4.4 million and $4.2 million in stock based compensation as a result of accelerated expense recognition on the equity awards granted on April 1, 2012 and 2011, respectively, because such awards were no longer contingent on the employee providing additional service based on our retirement qualifications.

On May 16, 2012, our stockholder’s approved the implementation of an employee stock purchase plan, or ESPP. The ESPP will commence on October 1, 2012 and offer eligible employees the opportunity to authorize payroll deductions of up to 20.0% of their regular base salary and up to 50.0% of their short-term incentive compensation, both of which in total may not exceed twenty five thousand dollars in any calendar year, to purchase shares of our Class A common stock at a 5.0% discount of its fair market value at the time of purchase. The ESPP is noncompensatory as the purchase discount is 5.0% or less from the fair market value, substantially all employees that meet limited employment qualifications may participate, and it incorporates no option features.

(1)EBITDA is the financial measure which management uses to evaluate the performance of our segments. “EBITDA” is defined as net income before interest expense, provision for income taxes, and depreciation and amortization of fixed and intangible assets. In the second quarter of 2012, we changed our definition of EBITDA such that it only reflects the definition noted and no longer excludes investment income/(loss) and realized gain/(loss) on securities, net, for all periods presented. In addition, this Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations includes references to EBITDA margin, which is computed as EBITDA divided by revenues. See Note 12 of our condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Form 10-Q filing.

Although EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure, EBITDA is frequently used by securities analysts, lenders and others in their evaluation of companies. EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool, and should not be considered in isolation, or as a substitute for an analysis of our results of operations or cash flows from operating activities reported under GAAP. Management uses EBITDA in conjunction with traditional GAAP operating performance measures as part of its overall assessment of company performance. Some of these limitations are:

 

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

 

EBITDA does not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs;

 

Although depreciation and amortization are noncash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized often will have to be replaced in the future and EBITDA does not reflect any cash requirements for such replacements; and

 

Other companies in our industry may calculate EBITDA differently than we do, limiting its usefulness as a comparative measure.

Revenues

Revenues were $824.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013 compared to $719.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012, compared to $640.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011, an increase of $79.6$104.9 million or 12.4%14.6%. In 2012, and 2011, we acquired threethe following companies, Bloodhound, HRP,MediConnect, ALP, and MediConnect,Argus, collectively referred to as recent acquisitions, which we define as acquisitions not owned for a significant portion of both the current period and/or prior period and would therefore impact the comparability of the financial results. RecentMediConnect was noted as a recent acquisition only for the first quarter of 2013 as a full quarter comparable exists as of the second quarter of 2013.

EBITDA margin for our Risk Assessment segment was 56.2% for the six months ended June 30, 2013 compared to 54.1% for the six months ended June 30, 2012 compared to 50.8% for the six months ended June 30, 2011.2012. The increase in margin is primarily attributed to operating leverage in the segment as well as cost efficiencies.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of June 30, 20122013 and December 31, 2011,2012, we had cash and cash equivalents and available-for-sale securities of $102.0$176.8 million and $196.7$94.7 million, respectively. Subscriptions for our solutions are billed and generally paid in advance of rendering services either quarterly or in full upon commencement of the subscription period, which is usually for one year. Subscriptions are automatically renewed at the beginning of each calendar year. We have historically generated significant cash flows from operations. As a result of this factor, as well as the availability of funds under our $850.0 million syndicated revolving credit facility, we believe that we will have sufficient cash to meet our working capital and capital expenditure needs, and to fuel our future growth plans.

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

Our capital expenditures, which include noncash purchases of fixed assets and capital lease obligations, as a percentage of revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, were 7.8% and 2011, were 5.3% and 5.4%, respectively. The increase in capital expenditures is primarily due to our investment initiatives for development of new solutions. The expected capital expenditures for the year ending December 31, 2013, of $115.0 million, are consistent with the amounts previously disclosed as of December 31, 2012, which we expect to primarily include expenditures on our technology infrastructure and our continuing investments in developing and enhancing our solutions. Expenditures related to developing and enhancing our solutions are predominately related to internal use software and are capitalized in accordance with ASC 350-40, “Accounting for Costs of Computer Software Developed or Obtained for Internal Use.” We also capitalize amounts in accordance with ASC 985-20, “Software to be Sold, Leased or Otherwise Marketed.” The amounts capitalized in accordance with the accounting guidance for software to be sold, leased or otherwise marketed are not significant to the financial statements.

We historically used a portion of our cash for repurchases of our common stock from our stockholders. During the six months ended June 30, 20122013 and 2011,2012, we repurchased $107.0$137.6 million and $217.0$107.0 million of our Class A common stock, respectively. See Note 9 to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q.

We provideIn prior years, we provided pension and postretirement benefits to certain qualifying active employees and retirees. On February 29, 2012, we instituted a hard freeze, which eliminated all future compensation and service credits, to all participants in the pension plans. In April 2012, we completed a voluntary prefunding to our qualified pension plan of $72.0 million, which resulted in a contribution of $78.8 million for the year, of which $28.2 million was the minimum contribution requirement for 2012. We do not anticipate further contributions in 2012 to be made with respect to our qualified pension plan. Under the postretirement plan, we provideprovided certain healthcare and life insurance benefits to qualifying participants; however, participants are required to pay a stated percentage of the premium coverage. In March 2012, we established a voluntary employee’s beneficiary association plan, or VEBA plan, to fund the postretirement plan. We contributed $5.0 million and $8.5 millionThe expected contributions to the VEBA Plan for the threepension and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively. We expect the contribution to the postretirement plan for the remaining quartersplans for the year ending December 31, 2012 to be2013 are consistent with this quarter.the amounts previously disclosed as of December 31, 2012. See Note 11 to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q.10-Q for further information.

Financing and Financing Capacity

The credit facility contains certain customary financial and other covenants that, among other things, impose certain restrictions on indebtedness, liens, investments, and capital expenditures. These covenants also place restrictions on mergers, asset sales, sale/leaseback transactions, payments between us and our subsidiaries, and certain transactions with affiliates. The financial covenants require that, at the end of any fiscal quarter, we have a consolidated interest coverage ratio of at least 3.0 to 1.0 and that we maintain a consolidated funded debt leverage ratio below 3.253.50 to 1.0. We were in compliance with all debt covenants under the credit facility as of June 30, 2012.2013.

We also have a long-term private placement loan facilitiesfacility under an uncommitted master shelf agreementsagreement with New York Life and Prudential Capital Group, or Prudential, with availabilities at June 30, 2012 in the amountsavailable capacity of $30.0 million and $190.0 million, respectively.$205.0 million. We can borrow under the New York Life Master Shelf Agreement until March 16, 2013 and the Prudential Master Shelf Agreement until August 30, 2013. We also had an uncommitted master shelf agreement with New York Life that expired on March 16, 2013. We did not extend this agreement. During the six months ended June 30, 2013, we repaid $45.0 million of our outstanding long-term private placement loan facilities debt that matured in April 2013 with cash from operations.

The notes outstanding under thesethe long-term private placement loan facilities mature over the next fourthree years. Individual borrowings are made at a fixed rate of interest determined at the time of the borrowing and interest is payable quarterly. The weighted average rate of interest with respect to our outstanding borrowings under these facilities was 6.3%6.25% for the six months ended June 30, 2012.2013. The uncommitted master shelf agreements contain certain covenants that limit our ability to create liens, enter into sale/leaseback transactions and consolidate, merge or sell assets to another company.

The senior notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed, jointly and severally, on an unsecured and unsubordinated basis by ISO and certain subsidiaries that guarantee our credit facility, or any amendment, refinancing or replacement

thereof. The indenture governing the senior notes restricts our ability and our subsidiaries’ ability to, among other things, create certain liens, enter into sale/leaseback transactions and consolidate with, sell, lease, convey or otherwise transfer all or substantially all of our assets, or merge with or into, any other person or entity.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations are based on our condensed consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements require management to make estimates and judgments that affect reported amounts of assets and liabilities and related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the financial statements and revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. These estimates are based on historical experience and on other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. On an ongoing basis, management evaluates its estimates, including those related to revenue recognition, goodwill and intangible assets, pension and other post retirement benefits, stock-based compensation, and income taxes. Actual results may differ from these assumptions or conditions. Some of the judgments that management makes in applying its accounting estimates in these areas are discussed under the heading “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in our annual report on Form 10-K dated and filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 28, 2012.26, 2013. Since the date of our annual report on Form 10-K, there have been no material changes to our critical accounting policies and estimates.
