"For the second consecutive quarter, we delivered adjusted operating revenue growth of 45% or higher," commented CEO Bill Tauscher. "In our U.S. retail segment, which accounted for 65% of adjusted operating revenues, adjusted operating revenues grew 26% over last year's second quarter due to strong performance at Cardpool exchange, solid growth in open loop gift cards, and increased marketing revenues. The International retail segment recorded adjusted operating revenues growth of 36% during the second quarter, driven by increased marketing revenue in our Asia Pacific region to support the promotion of digital gaming products, partially offset by foreign exchange headwinds. Excluding both foreign exchange impact and marketing revenues, international adjusted operating revenues increased 14%. In our incentives and rewards segment, adjusted operating revenues grew 266%. Across all segments Company-wide adjusted operating revenues totaled $195 million for the quarter."
CFO Jerry Ulrich added, "Adjusted EBITDA grew 42%, slightly below adjusted operating revenue growth due to a one-time $3.9 million litigation credit that reduced general and administrative expenses in the second quarter of 2014. Excluding this litigation credit, adjusted EBITDA increased 73%. Excluding 2014 acquisitions, adjusted operating revenues grew 27% for the second consecutive quarter and adjusted EBITDA grew 24%. Adjusted net income grew 28% and adjusted diluted EPS grew 24% during the second quarter excluding the reduction in cash taxes payable related to our 2014 spin-off from Safeway and the realization of acquisition-related net operating losses."

GAAP financial results for the second quarter of 2015 compared to the second quarter of 2014
| |
• | Operating revenues totaled $372.2 million, an increase of 31% from $283.9 million for the quarter ended June 14, 2014. This increase was due to a 19% increase in commissions and fees driven primarily by higher closed loop gift card sales; a 99% increase in program, interchange, marketing and other fees due to strong open loop gift card sales and increased marketing revenues in both the U.S. and international retail segments, growth in the incentives and rewards segment, reflecting the acquisition of Parago in late 2014; and a 27% increase in product sales primarily due to growth at Cardpool. |
| |
• | Net income totaled $2.9 million compared to $5.1 million for the quarter ended June 14, 2014. The decrease was driven primarily by higher non-cash stock compensation expense, a one-time litigation credit after-tax of $2.3 million recorded in the second quarter of 2014, increased amortization of acquisition-related intangibles, higher acquisition-related interest expense and a higher tax rate, partially offset by an after-tax non-cash credit of $2.5 million for the reduction in contingent consideration related to the acquisition of CardLab. |
| |
• | Earnings per diluted share was $0.05 compared to earnings per diluted share of $0.09 for the quarter ended June 14, 2014. Diluted shares outstanding increased 4% to 55.9 million due to the dilutive effect of stock options and restricted stock awards in the 2015 period as compared to the 2014 period. |
Non-GAAP financial results for the second quarter of 2015 compared to the second quarter of 2014 (see Table 2 for Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measures)
| |
• | Adjusted operating revenues totaled $195.3 million, an increase of 45% from $134.7 million for the quarter ended June 14, 2014. Excluding 2014 acquisitions, adjusted operating revenues grew 27%. |
| |
• | Adjusted EBITDA totaled $30.6 million, an increase of 42% from $21.6 million for the quarter ended June 14, 2014. Excluding 2014 acquisitions, adjusted EBITDA increased 24%. |
| |
• | Adjusted net income totaled $21.1 million, an increase of 42% from $14.8 million for the quarter ended June 14, 2014. Excluding the impact of the reduction in cash taxes payable, adjusted net income was $11.8 million, an increase of 28% from $9.2 million for the quarter ended June 14, 2014. |
| |
• | Adjusted diluted EPS was $0.38, an increase of 36% from $0.28 for the quarter ended June 14, 2014. Excluding the impact of the reduction in cash taxes payable, adjusted diluted EPS increased 24% to $0.21. |

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Blackhawk regards the non-GAAP financial measures provided in this press release as useful measures of the operational and financial performance of its business. Adjusted operating revenues, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, Adjusted net income and Adjusted diluted earnings per share are useful to evaluating Blackhawk's operating performance for the following reasons: adjusting our operating revenues for distribution commissions paid and other compensation to our retail distribution partners and business clients is useful to understanding our operating margin; EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are widely used by investors and securities analysts to measure a company’s operating performance without regard to items that can vary substantially from company to company and from period to period depending upon their financing, accounting and tax methods, the book value of their assets, their capital structures and the method by which their assets were acquired; Adjusted EBITDA margin provides a measure of operating efficiency based on Adjusted operating revenues and without regard to items that can vary substantially from company to company and from period to period depending upon their financing, accounting and tax methods, the book value of their assets, their capital structures and the method by which their assets were acquired; non-cash equity grants made to employees and distribution partners at a certain price and point in time do not necessarily reflect how our business is performing at any particular time and the related expenses are not key measures of our core operating performance; intangible asset amortization expenses can vary substantially from company to company and from period to period depending upon the applicable financing and accounting methods, the fair value and average expected life of the acquired intangible assets, the capital structure and the method by which the intangible assets were acquired and, as such, we do not believe that these adjustments are reflective of our core operating performance; non-cash fair value adjustments to contingent business acquisition liability do not directly reflect how our business is performing at any particular time and the related expense adjustment amounts are not key measures of our core operating performance; and cash tax savings resulting from the step up in tax basis of our assets resulting from the Section 336(e) election due to our Spin-Off and the Safeway Merger and cash tax savings from amortization of goodwill and other intangibles or utilization of net operating loss carryforwards from business acquisitions represent significant cash savings that are useful for understanding our overall operating results. Reconciliations of non-GAAP financial measures to Blackhawk’s financial results as determined in accordance with GAAP are included at the end of this press release following the accompanying financial data. The use of non-GAAP financial measures has certain limitations as they do not reflect all items of income, expense, or cash flows that affect Blackhawk’s financial performance under GAAP. These non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for or in isolation from, measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. In addition, these non-GAAP measures may differ from the non-GAAP information used by other companies, including peer companies, and therefore comparability may be limited. Blackhawk encourages investors and others to review Blackhawk’s financial information in its entirety and not rely on any single financial measure.
