Black Knight
| |
• | Total revenue of $227 million, led by Servicing Technology revenue of approximately $157 million |
| |
• | Revenue growth of 11% for the first quarter compared to the first quarter of 2014, led by Data & Analytics, RealEC and Origination Technology |
| |
• | Adjusted EBITDA of $96 million and adjusted EBITDA margin of 41.9%, a 750 basis point margin improvement from the first quarter of 2014 |
“This was a great start to the year for both our title insurance and Black Knight businesses,” said Chairman William P. Foley, II. “The significant rate decline in January helped us generate a 63% increase in refinance open orders and a 49% increase in refinance closed orders in the first quarter versus the first quarter of 2014. Additionally, purchase open orders showed improving strength, growing by 12% in February and 10% in March versus the prior year months. Consequently, we were able to achieve a solid 10.3% pre-tax title margin in what is our seasonally weakest quarter of the year. We also believe that we are well positioned to benefit from any continued seasonal improvement in the purchase market as we enter the spring and summer months, with a goal of achieving pre-tax title margins that approach or meet our 15%-20% pre-tax title margin target.
“Black Knight also had a strong start to 2015, generating 11% revenue growth, led by Data & Analytics, RealEC and Origination Technology, and an adjusted EBITDA margin of 41.9%, a 750 basis point margin improvement over the first quarter of 2014. In the first quarter, we started recognizing revenue from a large, multi-year data licensing agreement with a major industry participant and had one month of revenue from a large loan origination technology contract with a large national bank. We are also on track to launch and close the Black Knight initial public offering over the next several weeks and we look forward to Black Knight operating as an FNF majority-owned, publicly-traded company."

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information
Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) is the term used to refer to the standard framework of guidelines for financial accounting. GAAP includes the standards, conventions, and rules accountants follow in recording and summarizing transactions and in the preparation of financial statements. In addition to reporting financial results in accordance with GAAP, the Company has provided non-GAAP financial measures, which it believes are useful to help investors better understand its financial performance, competitive position and prospects for the future. These non-GAAP measures include earnings before interest, taxes and depreciation and amortization (EBITDA), adjusted earnings before interest, taxes and depreciation and amortization (Adjusted EBITDA), adjusted earnings before interest, taxes and depreciation as a percent of adjusted revenue (Adjusted EBITDA margin), adjusted net earnings, adjusted EPS and free cash flow.
Any non-GAAP measures should be considered in context with the GAAP financial presentation and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for GAAP net earnings. Further, FNF's non-GAAP measures may be calculated differently from similarly titled measures of other companies. Reconciliations of these non-GAAP measures to related GAAP measures are provided below.

The shares to be registered may not be sold nor may offers to buy be accepted prior to the time when the registration statement becomes effective.

Forward-Looking Statements and Risk Factors
This press release contains forward-looking statements that involve a number of risks and uncertainties. Statements that are not historical facts, including statements regarding our expectations, hopes, intentions or strategies regarding the future are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are based on management's beliefs, as well as assumptions made by, and information currently available to, management. Because such statements are based on expectations as to future financial and operating results and are not statements of fact, actual results may differ materially from those projected. We undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. No assurance can be given as to the value of Black Knight's common stock, the price at which its common stock may be offered in the proposed offering, the trading price of such common stock after the proposed offering or whether a liquid market for such common stock will develop or be maintained. The risks and uncertainties which forward-looking statements are subject to include, but are not limited to: changes in general economic, business and political conditions, including changes in the financial markets; weakness or adverse changes in the level of real estate activity, which may be caused by, among other things, high or increasing interest rates, a limited supply of mortgage funding or a weak U. S. economy; our potential inability to find suitable acquisition candidates, acquisitions in lines of business that will not necessarily be limited to our traditional areas of focus, or difficulties in integrating acquisitions; our dependence on distributions from our title insurance underwriters as a main source of cash flow; significant competition that our operating subsidiaries face; compliance with extensive government regulation of our operating subsidiaries.
This press release should be read in conjunction with the press release filed for the results of FNFV on this same date as well as the risks detailed in the “Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Information,” “Risk Factors” and other sections of the Company’s Form 10-Q,10-K and other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
