	Description of Business
	Solera Holdings, Inc. and subsidiaries (the “Company”, “Solera”, “we”, “us” or “our”) is a leading provider of risk and asset management software and services to the automotive and property marketplace, including the global "property and casualty" ("P&C") insurance industry. In addition to our global-leading position in collision repair and our U.S. based mechanical repair presence, we provide data driven productivity and decision support solutions to other aspects of vehicle ownership such as vehicle validation, driver violation monitoring, vehicle salvage and electronic titling. We are also expanding our core competencies of data, software and connectivity from the auto to the home. We are active in over 70 countries across six continents.
	Through our acquisition of the Insurance and Services Division of Pittsburgh Glass Works LLC (“I&S”) in July 2014, we also provide software and business management tools, third-party claims administration, first notice of loss and network management services to the U.S. auto and property repair industries, specializing in glass claims. In addition, through our acquisition of CAP Automotive ("CAP") in November 2014, we provide valuation data and specification data for new and used vehicles in the United Kingdom.
	Financial Statement Preparation
	The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the applicable rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), and therefore, certain information and disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("U.S. GAAP") have been condensed or omitted. In the opinion of management, the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements for the periods presented reflect all adjustments, consisting of only normal, recurring adjustments, necessary to fairly state our financial position, results of operations and cash flows. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2014, included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on August 29, 2014. Our operating results for the three month period ended March 31, 2015 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for any future periods.
	Principles of Consolidation
	The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include our accounts and those of our wholly-owned and majority-owned subsidiaries, as well as Service Repair Solutions, Inc. ("SRS"). Our consolidated majority-owned subsidiaries include certain of our subsidiaries located in Belgium, France, Portugal, Spain and Mexico. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
	Use of Estimates
	The preparation of the accompanying consolidated financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make judgments, assumptions and estimates that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. We base our estimates and judgments on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses are affected by estimates and assumptions which are used for, but not limited to, the accounting for sales allowances, allowance for doubtful accounts, fair value of derivatives, valuation of goodwill and intangible assets, amortization of intangibles, restructurings, liabilities under defined benefit plans, stock-based compensation, redeemable noncontrolling interests and income taxes.
	Reclassifications
	Share-based compensation expense for the previously reported periods has been reclassified to selling, general and administrative expenses from a separate line item in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of income (loss) to conform with the current period presentation.
	Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
	In July 2013, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") Topic No. 2013-11, Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit When a Net Operating Loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss, or a Tax Credit Carryforward Exists, which requires an entity to present certain unrecognized tax benefits as reductions to deferred tax assets rather than as liabilities in balance sheets when a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward exists. ASU Topic No. 2013-11 does not affect the recognition or measurement of uncertain tax positions under ASC 740. We adopted ASU Topic No. 2013-11 in the first quarter of our fiscal year 2015. The adoption of ASU Topic No. 2013-11 did not impact our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
	New Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted
	In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU Topic No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in ASC Topic No. 605, Revenue Recognition, and most industry-specific guidance. This guidance primarily requires an entity to 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. ASU Topic No. 2014-09 is effective for our fiscal year 2017.
	In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU Topic No. 2014-15, Disclosure of Uncertainties About an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern, which requires management to perform interim and annual assessments of an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year of the date of issuance of the entity’s financial statements. ASU Topic No. 2014-15 is effective for our fiscal year 2017.
	In April 2015, FASB issued ASU Topic No. 2015-3, Interest—Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30): Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs, which requires that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability, consistent with debt discounts. ASU Topic No. 2015-3 is effective for our fiscal year 2017.
	In April 2015, FASB issued ASU Topic No. 2015- 5, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Customer’s Accounting for Fees Paid in a Cloud Computing Arrangement, which provides guidance to help entities determine whether a cloud computing arrangement includes a software license and evaluate fees paid by a customer in a cloud computing arrangement. ASU Topic No. 2015-5 is effective for our fiscal year 2017.

Earnings Per Share [Abstract]
Net Income Attributable To Solera Holdings, Inc. Per Common Share
	2	Net Income (Loss) Attributable to Solera Holdings, Inc. Per Common Share
	All of our restricted stock units and performance share units have the right to receive non-forfeitable dividends on an equal basis with common stock and therefore are considered participating securities that must be included in the calculation of net income (loss) per share using the two-class method. Under the two-class method, basic and diluted net income (loss) per share is determined by calculating net income (loss) per share for common stock and participating securities based on the cash dividends paid and participation rights in undistributed earnings. Diluted net income (loss) per share also considers the dilutive effect of in-the-money stock options and unvested restricted stock units and performance share units that have the right to receive forfeitable dividends, calculated using the treasury stock method. Under the treasury stock method, the amount of assumed proceeds from unexercised stock options and unvested restricted stock units includes the amount of compensation cost attributable to future services not yet recognized, proceeds from the exercise of the options, and any excess income tax benefit or liability.
	The computation of basic and diluted net income (loss) attributable to Solera Holdings, Inc. per common share using the two-class method is as follows (in thousands, except per share amounts):

	Acquisition of CAP
	On November 20, 2014, we acquired 100% of the equity interests of CAP, for approximately £284.8 million ($449.7 million) in cash paid at closing. CAP is a leading provider of real-time, high-accuracy valuations and specifications for new and used vehicles in the United Kingdom. CAP's solutions provide pricing transparency for vehicle transactions and enable buyers and sellers of vehicles to make accurate pricing decisions. The acquisition of CAP creates the only United Kingdom-based enterprise with decision support data and software solutions spanning vehicle valuation, validation, collision and mechanical repair and total cost of ownership. We financed the acquisition of CAP through the issuance of additional senior unsecured notes (Note 9) as well as cash on hand. CAP has been assigned to our EMEA segment. We have included the results of operations of CAP in our consolidated statements of income from the acquisition date. Revenues and net income earned by CAP were $15.6 million and $1.7 million, respectively, for the period from the acquisition date through March 31, 2015.
	We have accounted for the acquisition of CAP under the acquisition method of accounting and, accordingly, the total purchase price has been allocated to the acquired tangible and identifiable intangible assets and assumed liabilities based on their estimated fair values on the acquisition date. The excess of the purchase price over the aggregate fair values was recorded as goodwill. Of the purchase price for CAP, we have preliminarily allocated £185.8 million ($293.3 million) to goodwill and £122.7 million ($193.6 million) to identifiable intangible assets. The goodwill recorded in the acquisition represents future enhancements to the software and database, future customer relationships and markets, and the workforce. The goodwill recorded in the CAP acquisition is not expected to be tax deductible for U.S. federal income tax purposes.
	The following table summarizes the preliminary purchase price allocation for the acquisition of CAP (in thousands):
	Goodwill	$	293,303
	Intangible assets	193,640
	Cash	4,606
	Accounts receivable	9,352
	Other assets acquired	2,876
	Accounts payable and other current liabilities assumed	(4,720		)
	Deferred revenue	(16,925		)
	Deferred tax liabilities	$	(32,476	)
	Total	$	449,656
	Identifiable intangible assets acquired from CAP were as follows:
		Value (in thousands)			Weighted Average Amortizable Life (in years)
	Customer relationships	$	78,365		19.8
	Technology	58,900			10
	Trademarks	56,375			Indefinite
	Total	$	193,640
	We are amortizing the acquired identifiable intangible assets on an accelerated basis to reflect the pattern in which the economic benefits of the intangible assets are consumed.
	We valued the purchased trademark and technology assets under the income approach using the relief from royalty method, which assumes value to the extent that the acquired company is relieved of the obligation to pay royalties for the benefits received from them. We valued the purchased customer relationships asset under the income approach using the excess earnings methodology based upon estimated future discounted cash flows attributable to revenues projected to be generated from those customers.
	In connection with the acquisition of CAP, we incurred direct and incremental costs of $4.5 million, consisting of legal and professional fees, which are included in acquisition and related costs in our consolidated statements of income.
	The following table presents the unaudited pro forma combined results of Solera and CAP as though the acquisition of CAP occurred at the beginning of fiscal year 2014. The unaudited pro forma financial information is presented for informational purposes only and is not necessarily indicative of the results of operations that would have been achieved if the acquisition had occurred at the beginning of fiscal year 2014. The unaudited pro forma financial information reflects all material, recurring adjustments directly attributable to the acquisition of CAP, including amortization of acquired intangible assets, interest expense associated with the senior unsecured notes issued in November 2014 to finance our acquisition of CAP and any related tax effects. Amounts are in thousands, except per share data.

	On July 29, 2014, we acquired 100% of the operating entities and other assets comprising I&S, for approximately $279.4 million in cash paid at closing. Operating under the brand names of LYNX Services, GTS Services, and GLAXIS, I&S is a leading provider of software and business management tools, third-party claims administration, first notice of loss and network management services to the U.S. auto and property repair industries, specializing in glass claims. The acquisition of I&S allows us to expand our relationship with insurance companies in the U.S. and abroad with workflow tools and third-party management services for glass, property, and collision claims as well as providing business management solutions to a broad network of auto repair and flat glass retailers. I&S has been included in our Americas segment. We have included the results of operations of I&S in our consolidated statements of income from the acquisition date. Revenues earned and net loss incurred by I&S were $40.2 million and $(2.2) million, respectively, for the period from the acquisition date through March 31, 2015.
	We have accounted for the acquisition of I&S under the acquisition method of accounting and, accordingly, the total purchase price has been allocated to the acquired tangible and identifiable intangible assets and assumed liabilities based on their estimated fair values on the acquisition date. The excess of the purchase price over the aggregate fair values was recorded as goodwill. Of the purchase price for I&S, we have preliminarily allocated $153.5 million to goodwill and $129.6 million to identifiable intangible assets. The goodwill recorded in the acquisition represents future enhancements to the software and database, future customer relationships and markets, and the workforce. All of the goodwill recorded in the I&S acquisition is expected to be tax deductible.
	The following table summarizes the preliminary purchase price allocation for the acquisition of I&S (in thousands):
	Goodwill	$	153,451
	Intangible assets	129,560
	Accounts receivable	2,836
	Other assets acquired	2,648
	Accounts payable	(6,839		)
	Accrued expenses and other current liabilities assumed	(2,240		)
	Total	$	279,416
	Identifiable intangible assets acquired from I&S were as follows:
		Value (in thousands)			Weighted Average Amortizable Life (in years)
	Customer relationships	$	76,240		19.2
	Technology	31,670			15
	Trademarks	21,650			Indefinite
	Total	$	129,560
	We are amortizing the acquired identifiable intangible assets on an accelerated basis to reflect the pattern in which the economic benefits of the intangible assets are consumed.
	We valued the purchased trademark and technology assets under the income approach using the relief from royalty method, which assumes value to the extent that the acquired company is relieved of the obligation to pay royalties for the benefits received from them. We valued the purchased customer relationships asset under the income approach using the excess earnings methodology based upon estimated future discounted cash flows attributable to revenues projected to be generated from those customers.
	In connection with the acquisition of I&S, we incurred direct and incremental costs of $2.0 million, consisting of legal and professional fees, which are included in acquisition and related costs in our consolidated statements of income.
	The following table presents the unaudited pro forma combined results of Solera and I&S as though the acquisition of I&S occurred at the beginning of fiscal year 2014. The unaudited pro forma financial information is presented for informational purposes only and is not necessarily indicative of the results of operations that would have been achieved if the acquisition had occurred at the beginning of fiscal year 2014.

	In addition to CAP and I&S, we acquired three businesses during the nine months ended March 31, 2015 for approximately $32.9 million in cash paid at closing and additional future cash payments of up to $19.8 million contingent upon the achievement of certain financial performance, product-related, integration and other objectives. These acquisitions are immaterial, both individually and in the aggregate. The purchase price allocation for these acquisitions reflected in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2015 are preliminary.
	During the nine months ended March 31, 2014, we acquired four businesses for approximately $50.2 million in cash paid at closing and additional future cash payments of up to $30.5 million contingent upon the achievement of certain financial performance, product-related, integration and other objectives. The acquisitions completed during the nine months ended March 31, 2014 were immaterial both individually and in the aggregate.
	Contingent Purchase Consideration
	At March 31, 2015, the maximum aggregate amount of remaining contingent cash payments associated with our business combinations is $108.3 million which is payable through fiscal year 2018.

Share Repurchase Program
	6	Share Repurchase Program
	In November 2014, our Board of Directors approved a new share repurchase program, replacing the share repurchase program authorized in October 2013, for up to a total of $375 million of our common stock through December 31, 2016. Share repurchases are made from time to time, through an accelerated stock purchase agreement, in open market transactions at prevailing market prices or in privately negotiated transactions. The repurchase program does not require us to purchase any specific number or amount of shares, and the timing and amount of such purchases will be determined by management based upon market conditions and other factors. In addition, the program may be amended or terminated at the discretion of our Board of Directors. Through March 31, 2015, we repurchased approximately 1.4 million shares for $71.4 million under the share repurchase program that was authorized in November 2014. During the nine months ended March 31, 2015, we repurchased approximately 1.9 million shares for $101.7 million under our share repurchase programs.

	-3	Included in accrued expenses and other current liabilities, and other noncurrent liabilities in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet.
	-4	Does not include the redeemable noncontrolling interest associated with SRS which is redeemable at other than fair value.
	Cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash. Our cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash, primarily consist of bank deposits, money market funds and bank certificates of deposit. The fair value of our cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash are determined using quoted market prices for identical assets (Level 1 inputs).
	Derivative financial instruments. We estimate the fair value of our derivative financial instruments using industry standard valuation techniques that utilize market-based observable inputs to extrapolate future reset rates from period-end yield curves and standard valuation models based on a discounted cash flow model. Market-based observable inputs including spot and forward rates, volatilities and interest rate curves at observable intervals are used as inputs to the models (Level 2 inputs). Our estimate of fair value also considers the derivative instruments will not be fulfilled.
	Accrued contingent purchase consideration. Contingent future cash payments related to business combinations that are not deemed to be compensatory are accrued at fair value as of the acquisition date. We re-assess the fair value measurement at each reporting date. Fair value is determined by estimating the present value of potential future cash payments that would be earned upon achievement by the acquired business of certain financial performance, product-related, integration and other objectives. Our estimate of fair value considers a range of possible cash payment scenarios using information available as of the reporting date, including the recent financial performance of the acquired businesses (Level 3 inputs).
	The following table summarizes the activity in accrued contingent purchase consideration which is measured at fair value on a recurring basis using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3 inputs) (in thousands):
		Three Months Ended March 31,						Nine Months Ended March 31,
		2015			2014			2015			2014
	Balance at beginning of period	13,375			$	20,927		$	20,784		$	23,334

	Balance at end of period	$	11,536		$	20,842		$	11,536		$	20,842
	Redeemable noncontrolling interests. We estimate the fair value of our redeemable noncontrolling interests through an income approach, utilizing a discounted cash flow model. We also consider the fair value using a market approach, which considers comparable companies and transactions, including transactions with the noncontrolling stockholders of our majority-owned subsidiaries.
	Under the income approach, the discounted cash flow model determines fair value based on the present value of projected cash flows over a specific projection period and a residual value related to future cash flows beyond the projection period. Both values are discounted to reflect the degree of risk inherent in an investment in the reporting unit and achieving the projected cash flows. A weighted average cost of capital of a market participant, which is an unobservable input, is used as the discount rate. The residual value is generally determined by applying a constant terminal growth rate to the estimated net cash flows at the end of the projection period. Alternatively, the present value of the residual value may be determined by applying a market multiple at the end of the projection period.
	Under the market approach, fair value is determined based on multiples of revenues and earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization for each reporting unit. For our calculation, we determined the multiples based on a selection of comparable companies and acquisition transactions, discounted for each reporting unit to reflect the relative size, diversification and risk of the reporting unit in comparison to the indexed companies and transactions.
	The significant unobservable inputs in the valuation of redeemable noncontrolling interests include a discount rate and long-term growth rates.
	The discount rate used in the determination of the estimated fair value of the redeemable noncontrolling interests as of March 31, 2015 using the income approach ranged between 13.5% and 15.6%, with a weighted average discount rate of 13.6%, reflecting a market participant's perspective as a noncontrolling shareholder in a privately-held subsidiary. The long-term growth rate used in the determination of the estimated fair value of the redeemable noncontrolling interests as of March 31, 2015 using the income approach ranged between 3.0% and 4.0%, with a weighted average long-term growth rate of 3.9%.
	The following table summarizes the activity in redeemable noncontrolling interests which are measured at fair value on a recurring basis solely using the income approach and using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3 inputs) (in thousands):
		Three Months Ended March 31,						Nine Months Ended March 31,
		2015			2014			2015			2014
	Balance at beginning of period	$	80,137		$	94,341		$	85,958		$	84,737
	Net income attributable to redeemable noncontrolling interests	2,740			1,779			6,152			5,193
	Dividends due to noncontrolling owners	(2,637		)	(6,298		)	(7,940		)	(6,298		)
	Changes in fair value	(562		)	4,924			4,675			6,269
	Effect of foreign exchange	(8,158		)	(57		)	(17,325		)	4,788
	Balance at end of period	$	71,520		$	94,689		$	71,520		$	94,689
	Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis
	No assets or liabilities were required to be measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis during the nine months ended March 31, 2015.
	Fair Value of Other Financial Instruments
	The carrying amounts of certain of our financial instruments, including accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses, approximate fair value due to their short-term nature. Based on the current quoted trading price of our senior unsecured notes (Level 1 inputs), we believe that the fair value of our senior unsecured notes is approximately $2.4 billion at March 31, 2015.

We used the net proceeds from the issuance of the 2021 Senior Notes and 2023 Senior Notes in November 2014, together with existing cash on hand, to finance our acquisition of CAP (Note 3).
	The 2021 Senior Notes include redemption provisions that allow us, at our option, to redeem all or a portion of the aggregate principal amount of the 2021 Senior Notes as follows:
	•	At any time prior to June 15, 2016, we may redeem up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount of the 2021 Senior Notes at a redemption price equal to 106.000% of the principal amount of the notes redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, through the date of redemption.
	•	At any time prior to June 15, 2017, we may redeem the 2021 Senior Notes, in whole or in part, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the notes redeemed plus a premium and accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption date. The premium at the applicable redemption date is the greater of: (1) 1.0% of the then outstanding principal amount of the notes; or (2) the excess of: (a) the present value at such redemption date of the sum of the redemption price of the notes at June 15, 2017 plus all required interest payments due on the notes through June 15, 2017 (excluding accrued but unpaid interest to the redemption date), computed using a discount rate equal to the Treasury Rate as of such redemption date plus 50 basis points; over (b) the then outstanding principal amount of the notes.
	•	At any time on or after June 15, 2017, we may redeem the 2021 Senior Notes, in whole or in part, at the following redemption prices, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, through the date of redemption: (i) if the redemption occurs on or after June 15, 2017 but prior to June 15, 2018, the redemption price is 103.000% of the principal amount of the notes; (ii) if the redemption occurs on or after June 15, 2018 but prior to June 15, 2019, the redemption price is 101.500% of the principal amount of the notes; and (iii) if the redemption occurs on or after June 15, 2019, the redemption price is 100.000% of the principal amount of the notes.
	The 2023 Senior Notes include redemption provisions that allow us, at our option, to redeem all or a portion of the aggregate principal amount of the 2023 Senior Notes as follows:

	Each performance share unit represents the right to receive one share of our common stock based on the achievement of certain financial performance targets during applicable performance periods. The number of shares reflected in the table above assumes the maximum number of performance share units will be earned.
	The following table summarizes stock option activity during the nine months ended March 31, 2015:

	Of the stock options outstanding at March 31, 2015, approximately 2.7 million are vested or expected to vest.
	Cash received from the exercise of stock options was $6.2 million during the nine months ended March 31, 2015. The intrinsic value of stock options exercised during the nine months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014 totaled $1.8 million and $5.4 million, respectively.
	Valuation of Share-Based Awards
	We utilized the Black-Scholes option pricing model for estimating the grant date fair value of stock options with the following assumptions:
		Risk-Free Interest Rate		Expected Term (in years)		Weighted Average Expected Stock Price Volatility			Expected Dividend Yield			Weighted Average Per Share Grant Date Fair Value
	Nine Months Ended March 31, 2015	1.6	%	4.5		24	%		1.4	%		$	10.87
	Nine Months Ended March 31, 2014	1.6	%	4.6		27	%		1.3	%		$	11.48
	We based the risk-free interest rates on the implied yield available on U.S. Treasury constant maturities in effect at the time of the grant with remaining terms equivalent to the respective expected terms of the options. We determine the expected life of an award by considering various relevant factors, including the vesting period and contractual term of the award, our employees’ historical exercise patterns and length of service, the expected future volatility of our stock price and employee characteristics. We determined the expected volatility based on our historical stock price volatility over the expected term. The dividend yield is based on our quarterly dividend of $0.195 and $0.17 per share declared during the nine months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.
	The weighted average per share grant date fair value of restricted stock units and performance share units granted during the nine months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, was $54.53 and $59.18, respectively, determined based on the market price of our common stock on the date of grant, which approximates the intrinsic value.
	At March 31, 2015, the estimated total remaining unamortized share-based compensation expense, net of forfeitures, was $51.1 million, which we expect to recognize over a weighted-average period of 2.3 years.

Income Tax Expense (Benefit), Continuing Operations [Abstract]
Provision For Income Taxes	14. Provision for Income Taxes
	We recorded an income tax provision of $22.0 million and $31.3 million for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2015, respectively, as compared to $7.2 million and $22.4 million for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2014, respectively. For the three months ended March 31, 2015, the expected tax provision derived from applying the U.S. federal statutory rate to our pre-tax income differed from our recorded income tax provision primarily due to local and U.S. tax expense related to the restructuring of our German business, offset by earnings in jurisdictions with lower income tax rates which are indefinitely reinvested and the recognition of certain discrete tax benefits. For the nine months ended March 31, 2015, the expected tax provision derived from applying the U.S. federal statutory rate to our pre-tax income differed from our recorded income tax provision primarily due to earnings in jurisdictions with lower income tax rates which are indefinitely reinvested and the recognition of certain discrete tax benefits, offset by local and U.S. tax expense related to the restructuring of our German business.
	For the three months ended March 31, 2014, the expected tax provision derived from applying the U.S. federal statutory rate to our pre-tax income differed from our recorded income tax provision primarily due to the release of a of valuation allowance on our U.S. deferred tax assets as a result of the utilization of certain foreign tax credit carryforwards and earnings in jurisdictions with lower income tax rates which are indefinitely reinvested. For the nine ended March 31, 2014, the expected tax provision derived from applying the U.S. federal statutory rate to our pre-tax income differed from our recorded income tax provision primarily due to the recognition of a valuation allowance on our U.S. deferred tax assets, partially offset by earnings in jurisdictions with lower income tax rates which are indefinitely reinvested.
	Gross unrecognized tax benefits as of March 31, 2015 and June 30, 2014 were $10.9 million and $13.2 million, respectively. No significant interest and penalties have been accrued during the nine months ended March 31, 2015.
	Pursuant to the terms of the acquisition agreements, the sellers in our business combinations have indemnified us for all tax liabilities related to the pre-acquisition periods. We are liable for any tax assessments for the post-acquisition periods for our U.S. and foreign jurisdictions.
	As of each reporting date, management considers all evidence, both positive and negative, that could impact our view with regards to future realization of deferred tax assets. As of March 31, 2015 and June 30, 2014, we continue to maintain a valuation allowance on our U.S. deferred tax assets of $24.8 million due to the limitation in our ability to utilize foreign tax credit carryforwards prior to the expiration of the carryforward periods.
	In assessing the future realization of our U.S. deferred tax assets, all available evidence was considered, including our U.S. cumulative income or loss position over the twelve quarters ended March 31, 2015 which included recent increases to interest expense. The U.S. cumulative loss position reduced the weight given to subjective evidence such as projections for future growth. As of each reporting date, our management considers new evidence, both positive and negative, that could impact management’s view with regards to future realization of deferred tax assets. We believe that our estimate of future taxable income is reasonable but inherently uncertain, and if our current or future operations and investments generate taxable income different than the anticipated amounts or US tax law changes reduce income expected in the future, adjustments to the valuation allowance are possible.

	We have aggregated our operating segments into two reportable segments: EMEA and Americas. Our EMEA reportable segment encompasses our operations in Europe, the Middle East, Africa, Asia and Australia. Our Americas reportable segment encompasses our operations in North, Central and South America.
	Our chief operating decision maker is our Chief Executive Officer. We evaluate the performance of our reportable segments based on revenues, income before provision for income taxes and adjusted EBITDA, a non-U.S. GAAP financial measure that represents U.S. GAAP net income (loss) excluding interest expense, provision for income taxes, depreciation and amortization, share-based compensation expense, restructuring charges, asset impairments and other costs associated with exit and disposal activities, acquisition and related costs, litigation related expenses and other (income) expense, net. We do not allocate certain costs to reportable segments, including costs related to our financing activities, business development and oversight, and tax, audit and other professional fees, to our reportable segments. Instead, we manage these costs at the Corporate level.

Financial Statement Preparation	Financial Statement Preparation
	The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the applicable rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), and therefore, certain information and disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("U.S. GAAP") have been condensed or omitted. In the opinion of management, the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements for the periods presented reflect all adjustments, consisting of only normal, recurring adjustments, necessary to fairly state our financial position, results of operations and cash flows. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2014, included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on August 29, 2014. Our operating results for the three month period ended March 31, 2015 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for any future periods.
Principles Of Consolidation	Principles of Consolidation
	The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include our accounts and those of our wholly-owned and majority-owned subsidiaries, as well as Service Repair Solutions, Inc. ("SRS"). Our consolidated majority-owned subsidiaries include certain of our subsidiaries located in Belgium, France, Portugal, Spain and Mexico. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Use Of Estimates	Use of Estimates
	The preparation of the accompanying consolidated financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make judgments, assumptions and estimates that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. We base our estimates and judgments on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses are affected by estimates and assumptions which are used for, but not limited to, the accounting for sales allowances, allowance for doubtful accounts, fair value of derivatives, valuation of goodwill and intangible assets, amortization of intangibles, restructurings, liabilities under defined benefit plans, stock-based compensation, redeemable noncontrolling interests and income taxes.
Reclassifications	Reclassifications
	Share-based compensation expense for the previously reported periods has been reclassified to selling, general and administrative expenses from a separate line item in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of income (loss) to conform with the current period presentation.

	In July 2013, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") Topic No. 2013-11, Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit When a Net Operating Loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss, or a Tax Credit Carryforward Exists, which requires an entity to present certain unrecognized tax benefits as reductions to deferred tax assets rather than as liabilities in balance sheets when a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward exists. ASU Topic No. 2013-11 does not affect the recognition or measurement of uncertain tax positions under ASC 740. We adopted ASU Topic No. 2013-11 in the first quarter of our fiscal year 2015. The adoption of ASU Topic No. 2013-11 did not impact our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
New Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted	New Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted
	In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU Topic No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in ASC Topic No. 605, Revenue Recognition, and most industry-specific guidance. This guidance primarily requires an entity to 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. ASU Topic No. 2014-09 is effective for our fiscal year 2017.
	In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU Topic No. 2014-15, Disclosure of Uncertainties About an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern, which requires management to perform interim and annual assessments of an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year of the date of issuance of the entity’s financial statements. ASU Topic No. 2014-15 is effective for our fiscal year 2017.
	In April 2015, FASB issued ASU Topic No. 2015-3, Interest—Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30): Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs, which requires that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability, consistent with debt discounts. ASU Topic No. 2015-3 is effective for our fiscal year 2017.
	In April 2015, FASB issued ASU Topic No. 2015- 5, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Customer’s Accounting for Fees Paid in a Cloud Computing Arrangement, which provides guidance to help entities determine whether a cloud computing arrangement includes a software license and evaluate fees paid by a customer in a cloud computing arrangement.
