Unaudited Attributed Financial Information for Fidelity National Financial Ventures Group Tracking Stock
The following tables present our assets, liabilities, revenue, expenses and cash flows that are attributed to our Fidelity National Financial Ventures business (“we,” “our,” "FNFV Group," or “FNFV”). The financial information in this Exhibit should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements for the period ended December 31, 2015 included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.
FNFV Group common stock is intended to reflect the separate performance of our FNFV Group. We own majority and minority equity investment stakes in a number of entities, including American Blue Ribbon Holdings, LLC ("ABRH"), Ceridian HCM, Inc. ("Ceridian") and Digital Insurance, Inc. ("Digital Insurance").
FNFV Group is comprised of two operating segments as follows:
| |
• | Restaurant Group. This segment consists of the operations of ABRH, in which we have a 55% ownership interest. ABRH and its affiliates are the owners and operators of the O'Charley's, Ninety Nine Restaurants, Max & Erma's, Village Inn, Bakers Square, and Legendary Baking concepts. The segment also includes the results of J. Alexander's, Inc. ("J. Alexander's") through September 28, 2015, the date it was distributed to FNFV shareholders. See the Recent Developments section below for further discussion of the distribution of J. Alexander's. On January 25, 2016, substantially all of the assets of the Max & Erma's restaurant concept were sold pursuant to an Asset Purchase Agreement. |
| |
• | FNFV Corporate and Other. This segment primarily consists of our share in the operations of certain equity investments, including Ceridian, as well as consolidated investments, including Digital Insurance in which we own 96%, and other smaller operations which are not title related. |
In 2014, Fidelity National Financial ("FNF") provided $200 million in financial support to FNFV comprised of $100 million in cash and $100 million in a line of credit, upon formation of the tracking stock. The $100 million in cash and the $100 million line of credit will be used for investment purposes, repurchasing FNFV stock or other general corporate purposes. From time to time, we may also provide additional loans to FNFV to cover corporate expenses and working capital. All additional investments in existing FNFV owned companies and any new FNFV company investments will be funded and managed by FNFV.
We have adopted certain expense allocation policies, each of which are reflected in the attributed financial information of the FNF Group (see Exhibit 99.1) and the FNFV Group. In general, corporate overhead is allocated to each group based upon the use of services by that group where practicable. Corporate overhead primarily includes costs of personnel and employee benefits, legal, accounting and auditing, insurance, investor relations and stockholder services and services related to FNF’s board of directors. We allocate in a similar manner a portion of costs of administrative shared services, such as information technology services. Where determinations based on use alone are not practical, we use other methods and criteria that we believe are equitable and that provide a reasonable estimate of the cost attributable to each group.
Notwithstanding the following attribution of assets, liabilities, revenue, expenses and cash flows to FNFV, Fidelity National Financial, Inc.'s ("FNF, Inc.") tracking stock structure does not affect the ownership or the respective legal title to FNF, Inc.'s assets or responsibility for FNF, Inc.'s liabilities. FNF, Inc. and its subsidiaries are each responsible for their respective liabilities. Holders of FNFV Group common stock are subject to risks associated with an investment in FNF, Inc. and all of its businesses, assets and liabilities. The issuance of FNFV Group common stock does not affect the rights of FNF, Inc.'s creditors or creditors of its subsidiaries. See "Item 1A. Risk Factors - Risks Relating to the Ownership of Our FNFV Group Common Stock due to our Tracking Stock Capitalization" for further discussion of risks associated with our tracking stock structure.

Note A. Basis of Presentation
Description of FNFV
On June 30, 2014, we completed the recapitalization of FNF common stock into two tracking stocks, FNF Group common stock and FNFV Group common stock. Each share of the previously outstanding FNF Class A common stock ("Old FNF common stock") was converted into one share of FNF Group common stock, which now trades on the New York Stock Exchange under the current trading symbol "FNF," and 0.3333 of a share of FNFV Group common stock, which now trades on the New York Stock Exchange under the trading symbol "FNFV." Both FNF and FNFV began regular trading on July 1, 2014.
In our FNFV group, we own majority and minority equity investment stakes in a number of entities, including ABRH, Ceridian and Digital Insurance.
Recent Developments
On February 18, 2016, our Board of Directors approved a new FNFV Group three-year stock repurchase program, effective March 1, 2016, under which we may repurchase up to 15 million shares of FNFV Group common stock. Purchases may be made from time to time by us in the open market at prevailing market prices or in privately negotiated transactions through February 28, 2019.
On February 11, 2016, we announced that we are considering alternatives to the spin-off of ABRH to FNFV shareholders previously announced on July 30, 2015.
Beginning in October 2015 through December 31, 2015, we purchased approximately 2.2 million shares of Del Frisco Restaurant Group ("Del Frisco's", NASDAQ: DFRG) common stock for a total investment of $32 million. Subsequent to year-end through February 19, 2016, we purchased approximately 0.8 million shares of Del Frisco's common stock for $12 million. We currently own approximately 13% of the outstanding common stock of Del Frisco's.
On September 16, 2015, J. Alexander's and FNF entered into a Separation and Distribution Agreement, pursuant to which FNF agreed to distribute one hundred percent (100%) of its shares of J. Alexander's common stock, on a pro rata basis, to the holders of FNFV common stock. Holders of FNFV common stock received, as a distribution from FNF, approximately 0.17272 shares of J. Alexander’s common stock for every one share of FNFV common stock held at the close of business on September 22, 2015, the record date for the distribution (the “Distribution”). The Distribution was made on September 28, 2015. As a result of the Distribution, J. Alexander's is now an independent public company and its common stock is listed under the symbol “JAX” on the New York Stock Exchange. The Distribution was generally tax-free to FNFV shareholders for U.S. federal income tax purposes, except to the extent of any cash received in lieu of J. Alexander's fractional shares.
On March 20, 2015, we completed our tender offer to purchase shares of FNFV stock. As a result of the offer, we accepted for purchase 12,333,333 shares of FNFV Group Common Stock for a purchase price of $15.00 per common share, for a total aggregate cost of $185 million, excluding fees and expenses related to the tender offer.
On February 18, 2015, we closed the sale of substantially all of the assets of Cascade Timberlands, LLC ("Cascade") which grows and sells timber and in which we owned a 70.2% interest, for $85 million less a replanting allowance of $1 million and an indemnity holdback of $1 million. The revenue from the sale was recorded in Escrow, title related and other fees and the cost of the land sold was in Other operating expenses in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations in the six months ended June 30, 2015. The effect of the sale on FNFV's net earnings was income of approximately $12 million. There was no effect on net earnings attributable to FNFV Group common shareholders due to offsetting amounts attributable to noncontrolling interests.
EPS
Included in the calculation of diluted earnings per share are convertible senior notes (the “Notes”) issued on August 2, 2011 by Fidelity National Financial, Inc. Under the terms of the indenture, if converted, a portion of the settlement may include shares of FNFV common stock. As the debt is the obligation of FNF Group, if FNF were to settle a portion of the Notes with FNFV common stock, FNF Group would reimburse FNFV Group for the shares issued upon settlement.

Note C. FNFV Common Stock
FNFV Group common stock has voting and redemption rights. Holders of FNFV Group common stock are entitled to one vote for each share of such stock held. Holders of FNFV Group common stock will vote as one class with holders of FNF Group common stock on all matters that are submitted to a vote of its stockholders unless a separate class vote is required by the terms of the current charter or Delaware law. In connection with certain dispositions of FNFV Group assets, the FNF board of directors may determine to seek approval of the holders of FNFV common stock, voting together as a separate class, to avoid effecting a mandatory dividend, redemption or conversion under the restated charter.
FNF may not redeem outstanding shares of FNFV Group common stock for shares of common stock of a subsidiary that holds assets and liabilities attributed to the FNFV Group unless its board of directors seeks and receives the approval to such redemption of holders of FNFV common stock, voting together as a separate class, and, if such subsidiary also holds assets and liabilities of the FNF Group, the approval of holders of FNF Group common stock to the corresponding FNF Group common stock redemption, with each affected group voting as a separate class. FNF can convert each share of FNFV Group common stock into a number of shares of the FNF Group common stock at a ratio that provides FNFV stockholders with the applicable Conversion Premium to which they are entitled.
