MINNEAPOLIS, MN – August 1, 2012 – The Dolan Company (NYSE: DM), a leading provider of professional services and business information to legal, financial and real estate sectors in the United States, today announced financial results for the three months ended June 30, 2012.
“The second quarter was challenging for our two largest processing businesses,” said James P. Dolan, chairman, chief executive officer and president. “We continue to anticipate the backlog of pending and future mortgage foreclosures that we believe will work its way through the system. And our e-discovery business showed only single-digit growth because of lumpiness of revenues from larger clients due to timing of matters. However, as a result of new matters that are starting to be processed and our current pipeline, we believe our e-discovery business will be stronger in the second half of this year.”
“Our Business Information segment tracked to our expectations and had a solid second quarter,” Dolan said. “The public notice advertising business showed modest growth while margins for the entire segment increased sharply compared to last year as a result of our employees’ hard work reorganizing and centralizing certain parts of the division.”
Dolan said that during the quarter the pace of new mortgage default referrals had not yet changed materially. “Although we see signs of progress among the major mortgage servicers, we believe the required new procedures at the state and federal level, as well as political considerations, may be temporarily slowing the pace of new default referrals. However, we are encouraged that meaningful price increases instituted by Fannie Mae last week should benefit our law firm partners and the mortgage default processing industry going forward. We continue to view the default referral situation as deferred business, and believe that our National Default Exchange, or NDeX, is well positioned to gain market share and be the provider of choice for mortgage default services as the pace of default referrals improves,” Dolan said.

“Meanwhile, we experienced some challenges in our other processing segment, Litigation Support Services. Revenues for this segment increased by 3% during the second quarter, including 6% growth in our e-discovery business. However, given the current pipeline of new business, we believe we will see stronger second-half revenue from our e-discovery segment given new matters we have recently won. In fact, within the past 90 days, we have added three new clients that are S&P 100 companies. We are pleased that we continue to add very large and important companies as new clients, and we are optimistic about the revenue potential of those clients as they start to ramp over the next year,” Dolan said.
“Within our Business Information Division, we continue to see benefits from the good work by our management team. Although revenue for the segment was down 3% in the second quarter, we saw higher margins, lower operating costs, and overall operating income improvement of 31%. The division has centralized some of its operations and implemented work-sharing arrangements in which our local companies support each other more actively to achieve real savings,” Dolan said. He noted that public notice advertising revenue increased modestly during the quarter, which is the first year-over-year growth the company had seen in this revenue category in seven quarters.
“Due primarily to purchase accounting adjustments related to previous acquisitions, in the second quarter, our total operating expense was reduced by $10.4 million on a non-recurring basis, to $52.4 million. Excluding the impact of these adjustments, total operating expenses would have been $62.8 million, down slightly from $63.0 million for the second quarter of last year,” Dolan added.
“Overall, we believe our revenue challenges are short-term in nature and we are focused on finding growth opportunities throughout our businesses while being very mindful of costs. We have taken important steps to position ourselves for a better future in each of our businesses and remain optimistic about a resumption of growth in our default processing business and a re-acceleration of growth in our e-discovery business,” Dolan said.
Full Year 2012 Guidance
Based on second quarter results and the outlook for the remainder of 2012, the company is revising its full-year financial guidance as follows:
| | |
| | 2012 Financial Guidance (dollars in millions, except per share numbers) |
Total revenues | | $265 – $278 |
Adjusted EBITDA | | $43 – $51 |
Net income attributable to The Dolan Company per diluted share | | $0.23 – $0.38 |
Cash earnings per diluted share | | $0.49 – $0.63 |
- 2 -
This guidance presumes the following: 1) a modest increase in second half default mortgage processing servicing revenue due to modest increases in file volumes and service fee increases; 2) non-controlling interest of ($0.2)-$0.4 million; 3) interest expense of $8.2-$8.7 million; 4) cash distributions to holders of non-controlling interest of $0; 5) tax rate of 41.6%-42.1%; and 6) fully diluted shares outstanding of 30.4 million.
This guidance presumes no acquisitions for the remainder of 2012. It also assumes that there will be no additional material effect on results of operations from foreclosure-related government legislation, programs, investigations, litigation, or settlements, or from lender-based programs or halts. These include, but are not limited to, legislation, programs, and other matters detailed in “Regulatory Environment” and “Risk Factors” in the company’s 2011 Form 10-K, filed March 9, 2012, with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.

Professional Services Division Results
The Professional Services Division provides specialized processing services to the legal profession through its subsidiaries, NDeX, Counsel Press, and DiscoverReady. National Default Exchange or NDeX, is a leading provider of mortgage default processing services in the United States. Together, Counsel Press and DiscoverReady comprise the company’s litigation support services segment. Counsel Press is the largest provider of appellate services in the United States, and DiscoverReady provides outsourced discovery management, including document review and data hosting and processing services, to major corporations and law firms.

Division revenues for the second quarter were $44.3 million, a decline of 8.5% from $48.4 million in the second quarter of 2011. The decline was primarily the result of lower NDeX file volume.
NDeX received 63,100 mortgage default files for processing during the second quarter and generated $28.1 million in revenues. This compares to 80,800 files received for processing and $32.7 million in revenues in the second quarter of 2011. The total number of foreclosure files received in the second quarter decreased by 16% from last year.
Litigation Support contributed $16.2 million in revenues during the second quarter of 2012, an increase of 3.1%, with the e-discovery business growing 6.4% during the quarter.
Direct operating expenses within the Professional Services Division were down roughly 6% during the quarter as lower volumes and cost reduction efforts at NDeX were offset, in part, by the addition of ACT and investments in DiscoverReady. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased 10.8% on a year-over-year basis to $16.7 million. Once again, a modest decrease at NDeX was offset by the additional expense associated with the addition of ACT Litigation Services and investments in DiscoverReady. Excluding the impact of fair value and other adjustments on earn-out liabilities, total Professional Services Division operating expenses as a percentage of division revenues increased to 98.7% for the quarter, from 87.5% in the second quarter of 2011. The increase in operating expense was the result of negative operating leverage due to the revenue declines at NDeX, and lower than expected revenue at DiscoverReady.
Business Information Division Results
The Business Information Division produces print and electronic legal publications, business journals, court and commercial media and other highly focused information products and services, operates Web sites and produces events for targeted professional audiences in about 20 geographic markets across the United States.
Business Information Division revenues for the second quarter of 2012 were $19.5 million, a 2.6% decrease from $20.0 million in the second quarter of 2011. The decline in revenue reflected slightly slower display and advertising revenue, partially offset by modestly higher public notice revenue. This is the third consecutive quarter of sequential public notice revenue growth. The company attributes that to modest improvement in the public notice geographies served.
Total operating expenses within the Business Information Division were $17.0 million during the second quarter of 2012, down 5.9% from last year. The reduction in expenses reflected the reorganization and centralization efforts implemented by senior management last year. For the second quarter of 2012, direct operating expenses decreased 6.5% to $7.3 million while selling, general and administrative expenses for the division declined by 3.6% to $8.6 million.

Balance Sheet and Liquidity
As of June 30, 2012, the company held $1.2 million of cash and cash equivalents, compared to $0.8 million at the end of 2011. During the second quarter of 2012, the company generated $15.8 million of cash from operating activities and $14.5 million of free cash flow, which is defined as net cash provided by operating activities minus capital expenditures. Deferred acquisition payments, primarily as a result of the ACT acquisition, were $14.4 million in the second quarter. Quarterly capital expenditures were $1.2 million. Days sales outstanding were 100.7 for the second quarter of 2012, which was up slightly from 99.1 days at the end of 2011, but down from 106.4 days at the end of the first quarter of 2012.
Total debt outstanding at the end of the second quarter was $172.1 million, of which $42.5 million was under a term loan facility. Net debt was $170.9 million, down $4.7 million from the end of 2011. At June 30, 2012, the combined weighted-average interest rate on the company’s credit facilities was 3.7%. The leverage ratio at the end of the quarter was 3.3 times total debt to trailing twelve month pro forma adjusted EBITDA, up from 3.0 times as of March 31, 2012, but within the maximum of 3.5 times allowed for the quarter in the senior debt covenants.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) is the term used to refer to the standard framework of guidelines for financial accounting in the United States. 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 Dolan Company reports the following non-GAAP measures:
| • | | Adjusted EBITDA, defined as GAAP income from continuing operations adjusted for the impact of the following: net interest expense resulting from the company’s net cash or borrowing position, which includes non-cash interest income or expense related to the changes in fair value of interest rate swaps; income tax expense; non-cash expenses, including depreciation and amortization, charges for stock options and restricted stock the company has granted, and fair value adjustments on earnouts recorded in connection with acquisitions; non-recurring items of income or expense, if applicable, including impairments of long-lived assets; and distributions paid to holders of noncontrolling interest; |
| • | | Cash earnings, defined as GAAP income from continuing operations adjusted for the impact of the following: noncontrolling interests; non-cash expenses, including non-cash interest income or expense related to the changes in the fair value of interest rate swaps, charges for stock options and restricted stock granted, fair value adjustments on earnouts recorded in connection with acquisitions, and amortization; certain non-recurring items of income or expense, including impairments of long-lived assets; and an adjustment to income tax expense related to the above reconciling items at the appropriate then-in-effect tax rate; |
| • | | Cash earnings per diluted share, defined as cash earnings divided by the number of weighted average diluted shares outstanding; and |
| • | | Free cash flow, defined as net cash provided by operating activities minus capital expenditures. |
- 5 -
The Dolan Company provides these measures because it believes that they are helpful to investors in comparing year-over-year performance in light of certain non-recurring charges, and to better understand its operating performance and profitability, competitive position and future prospects. Non-GAAP measures should be considered in conjunction with the GAAP financial presentation and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for GAAP net income attributable to The Dolan Company. In addition, it should be noted that the company’s calculations of adjusted EBITDA, cash earnings, cash earnings per diluted share, and free cash flow may not be comparable to the calculations of such measures by other companies.
