Exhibit 99.1
UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL INFORMATION
On June 1, 2016, Verisk Analytics, Inc. (the “Company”), through its 100% wholly-owned indirect subsidiary, Argus Information and Advisory Services, LLC, completed the sale of Verisk Health, Inc. and MediConnect Global, Inc. and their 100% wholly-owned subsidiaries (collectively, “Verisk Health”) to Veritas Capital through its affiliate, VCVH Holding Corp., for a consideration of $820,000 (the “Sale”), which consisted of $720,000 of cash consideration and a $100,000 subordinated promissory note with an eight year maturity (the “Note”). A portion of the proceeds from the Sale will be utilized to pay off the Company’s remaining outstanding revolver borrowings.
The Note has a stated interest rate of 9.0% per annum, increasing to 11.0% per annum at the earlier of specified refinancings or acquisitions, or the fourth anniversary of the closing of the Sale. Interest shall accrue from the closing date and on each anniversary of the Sale until the Note is paid in full on the unpaid principal amount of the Note outstanding at the interest rate in effect (computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months). On each anniversary of the Sale, accrued interest shall be paid in kind by adding the amount of such accrued interest to the outstanding principal amount of the Note. The issuer of the Note may, at its option at any time prior to the maturity date, prepay any, or all, of the principal amount of the Note, plus accrued but unpaid interest as of the elected prepayment date, without any premium or penalty. There is a mandatory prepayment of the Note as a result of (i) the proceeds of a specified dividend recapitalization received by VCVH Holding Corp, (ii) the consummation of a change of control of VCVH Holding Corp, or (iii) the sale, transfer or other disposition by Veritas Capital of more than 10% of the capital stock of VCVH Holding Corp.
The Company received a 10% interest in VCVH Holding, LLC, the value of which will be contingent on Veritas Capital realizing a specified rate of return on its investment. The Company is in the preliminary stages of assessing the accounting for this instrument. Accordingly, for purposes of the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial information (“the pro forma financial information”), the Company did not attribute any value to this instrument.
The pro forma financial information presents the pro forma financial condition and results of operations of the Company, giving effect to the Sale. The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated balance sheet is presented as if the Sale had occurred on March 31, 2016. The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated statements of continuing operations for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and the years ended December 31, 2015, 2014 and 2013 are presented as if the Sale had occurred on January 1, 2013. The pro forma financial information is based on the unaudited historical condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and the audited historical consolidated financial statements of the Company for the years ended December 31, 2015, 2014 and 2013.
The pro forma financial information does not purport to represent what the Company’s financial condition or results of operations would have been had the Sale occurred on the dates noted above, or to project the Company’s results of operations for any future periods. The pro forma adjustments are based on available information and certain assumptions that the Company believes to be reasonable. This information should be read in conjunction with the accompanying notes to the pro forma financial information, the separate unaudited historical condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes of the Company as of, and for the three months ended March 31, 2016, and the audited historical consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes of the Company for the years ended December 31, 2015, 2014 and 2013.

The pro forma financial information and explanatory notes give effect to the Sale as if it had occurred on March 31, 2016 in the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated balance sheet and as if it had occurred on January 1, 2013 in the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated statements of continuing operations for the three months ended March 31, 2016, and the years ended December 31, 2015, 2014 and 2013. The pro forma financial information is based on the unaudited historical condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and the audited historical consolidated financial statements of the Company for the years ended December 31, 2015, 2014 and 2013.
The pro forma financial information does not purport to represent what the Company’s financial condition or results of operations would have been had the Sale occurred on the dates noted above, or to project the Company’s results of operations for any future periods. The pro forma adjustments are based on available information and certain assumptions that the Company believes are reasonable. This information should be read in conjunction with the accompanying notes to the pro forma financial information, the separate unaudited historical condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes of the Company as of, and for the three months ended, March 31, 2016 and the audited historical consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes of the Company for the years ended December 31, 2015, 2014 and 2013.
The pro forma financial information reflects the effect of the following pro forma adjustments:
Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet:
| (a) | Reflects the Sale of the assets and liabilities of Verisk Health, which were presented as held for sale in the unaudited historical condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company as of March 31, 2016. As the Sale did not close until June 1, 2016, the ultimate disposal of such assets and liabilities and the finalization of the gain recognized on the Sale could result in material changes to the pro forma financial information. |
| (b) | Reflects estimated proceeds from the Sale of $797,516, consisting of $720,000 of cash and the preliminary estimated fair value of the Note of $77,516. No adjustment has been made to the proceeds from the Sale to give effect to any potential working capital and net debt adjustments under the terms of the Sale agreement. The valuation of the Note is based on preliminary management estimates of a discount rate based on current market conditions and assumes the Note would be paid in full at maturity, including accrued interest, with no prepayment election. These estimates and assumptions are subject to revisions which could result in material changes to the pro forma financial information. |
| (c) | Reflects the estimated net gain on the Sale of $162,571, net of $99,640 of tax on the gain, estimated using a tax rate of 38.0%. The estimated tax payments of $99,640 related to the gain on the Sale have been accrued for in “Other current liabilities” in the condensed consolidated pro forma balance sheet as of March 31, 2016. As the Sale did not close until June 1, 2016, the ultimate disposition of such assets and liabilities and the resulting gain and associated taxes recognized on the Sale could result in material changes to the pro forma financial information. |
Condensed Consolidated Statements of Continuing Operations:
| (d) | Verisk Health was reported as a discontinued operation in the Company’s unaudited historical condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes as of, and for the three months ended March 31, 2016. The historical amounts shown for this period represent only results from continuing operations and exclude results of operations for Verisk Health. As a result, no Verisk Health adjustments are applicable as presented. In addition, the Company expects to record a gain on the Sale. However, since the Company considers this to be a non-recurring item, it is excluded from the pro forma financial information. |
| (e) | Reflects a reduction of revenue and expenses from Verisk Health as a result of the Sale. These amounts do not to take into consideration an allocation of general corporate overhead costs not specifically related to Verisk Health and therefore, selling, general and administrative expenses do not reflect any potential reductions in corporate costs in response to this change in the Company. |
In addition, the Company expects to receive cost reimbursements for services provided pursuant to a transition services agreement, subsequent to the Sale.
| (f) | Reflects the tax provision for the entities included in the Sale at the effective tax rates of 39.7%, 40.1% and 33.1% for the years ended December 31, 2015, 2014 and 2013, respectively. |
| (g) | These amounts represent the amortization of the discount on the Note, as well as the related interest income, during the three months ended March 31, 2016 and the years ended December 31, 2015, 2014 and 2013. |
| (h) | Reflects the estimated tax on the amortization of the discount and related interest income on the Note, utilizing a tax rate of 38.0% for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and the years ended December 31, 2015, 2014 and 2013. |
