Crawford Reports 2012 Second Quarter Results
Company Increases Guidance for 2012
Crawford & Company (www.crawfordandcompany.com) (NYSE: CRDA and CRDB), the world's largest independent provider of claims management solutions to insurance companies and self-insured entities, today announced its financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2012.
Consolidated Results
Second quarter 2012 consolidated revenues before reimbursements totaled $293.8 million, an increase of 1% from $291.7 million in the 2011 second quarter. Second quarter 2012 net income attributable to Crawford & Company was $10.4 million, compared with $13.5 million recorded in the 2011 second quarter. Second quarter 2012 diluted earnings per share were $0.19 for CRDA and $0.18 for CRDB, compared with diluted earnings per share for each class of $0.25 in the prior-year quarter.
The difference in earnings per share between CRDA and CRDB for the 2012 second quarter and year-to-date period is due to the payment of a higher per share dividend on CRDA than CRDB, and the impact that has on the earnings per share calculation according to generally accepted accounting principles. Further references in this release will generally be only to CRDB, as that presents a more dilutive measure.
During the 2012 second quarter, the Company incurred pretax special charges of approximately $1.6 million, or $0.02 per share of CRDA and CRDB after related income taxes, related to a project to outsource certain aspects of our U.S. technology infrastructure. The Company expects this project to continue through the 2012 third quarter, with estimated additional pretax costs of $300,000. There were no special charges during the 2011 second quarter.

CRAWFORD & COMPANY 1001 SUMMIT BOULEVARD ATLANTA, GEORGIA 30319 (404) 300-1000
Balance Sheet and Cash Flow
The Company's consolidated cash and cash equivalents position as of June 30, 2012 totaled $45.7 million, compared with $77.6 million at December 31, 2011 and $37.2 million at June 30, 2011.
Crawford used $26.4 million of cash in operations during the 2012 year-to-date period, compared with $33.2 million during the comparable 2011 period. The $6.8 million reduction in cash used in operations was largely due to decreased contributions to the Company's retirement plans, partially offset by lower net income and higher unbilled revenues.
Management's Comments
Mr. Jeffrey T. Bowman, chief executive officer of Crawford & Company, stated, "Our second quarter 2012 operating results reflected continued improvement in our Broadspire operation aided by strong results in our EMEA/AP and Legal Settlement Administration segments. We continued to experience declines in our Americas segment from last year's second quarter as a result of relatively mild weather in the U.S. and Canada over the first half of this year.
"During the 2012 second quarter our Legal Settlement Administration segment was awarded responsibility for the Deepwater Horizon class action settlement which extended our engagement in this area. We expect activity in this special project to continue to be an important engagement for the Company for the remainder of 2012.
"In the Broadspire segment, we continued to see improvement, as we have reduced losses by over $6.0 million for the year-to-date period. Although we fell slightly short in the 2012 second quarter, we are driving a return to profitability through the remainder of 2012. The turnaround of Broadspire remains one of the key objectives for our management team and we are optimistic for the remainder of the year.
"Our EMEA/AP segment results were driven largely by the ongoing handling of catastrophic flood losses in Thailand, as well as activity related to the completion of weather-related claims in Australia and improvement in our continental European operating results.
"Our U.S. and Canadian property and casualty operations saw a decline in case referrals during the 2012 second quarter, as relatively mild weather reduced industry-wide claim volumes, continuing the trend we have experienced over the last two quarters. However, our Contractor Connection unit saw strong growth in referrals during the 2012 second quarter.
Mr. Bowman concluded, "We remain focused on our core strategic and operational goals and expect to expand market share, drive efficiencies and capitalize on emerging opportunities in all our operations during the balance of the year. We are encouraged by the results we are seeing thus far in 2012 and are pleased to be able to increase our guidance for the remainder of the year."

Excluding the negative impact of exchange rate changes, Americas revenues would have been $79.1 million in the 2012 second quarter. Revenues generated by the Company's catastrophe adjuster group in the U.S. were $5.5 million in the 2012 second quarter, decreasing from $10.0 million in the 2011 period.

EMEA/AP operating expenses for the 2012 second quarter increased by $2.4 million in U.S. dollars, a 3% increase, and increased by 5% on a constant dollar basis, compared with the 2011 period.

CRAWFORD & COMPANY 1001 SUMMIT BOULEVARD ATLANTA, GEORGIA 30319 (404) 300-1000
2012 Guidance
Crawford's business is dependent, to a significant extent, on case volumes. The Company cannot predict the future trend of case volumes for a number of reasons, including the fact that the frequency and severity of weather-related claims and the occurrence of natural and man-made disasters, which are a significant source of claims and revenue for the Company, are generally not subject to accurate forecasting. Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, Crawford & Company is increasing its guidance for 2012 as follows:
• | Consolidated revenues before reimbursements between $1.05 and $1.08 billion. |
• | Consolidated operating earnings between $74.5 and $82.0 million. |
• | Consolidated cash provided by operating activities between $35.0 and $40.0 million. |
• | After reflecting stock option expense, net corporate interest expense, customer-relationship intangible asset amortization expense, special charges, and income taxes, net income attributable to shareholders of Crawford & Company on a GAAP basis between $32.5 and $37.5 million, or $0.56 to $0.66 diluted earnings per CRDB share. |
Crawford & Company's management will host a conference call with investors on Monday, August 6, 2012 at 3:00 p.m. EDT to discuss earnings and other developments. The call will be recorded and available for replay through August 20, 2012. You may dial 1-855-859-2056 (404-537-3406 international) to listen to the replay. The access code is 13559676. Alternatively, please visit our web site at www.crawfordandcompany.com for a live audio web cast and related financial presentation.
Further information regarding the Company's financial position, operating results, and cash flows as of and for the quarter and year-to-date periods ended June 30, 2012 is shown on the attached unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.
In the normal course of business, our operating segments incur certain out-of-pocket expenses that are thereafter reimbursed by our clients. Under GAAP, these out-of-pocket expenses and associated reimbursements are required to be included when reporting expenses and revenues, respectively, in our consolidated results of operations. In the foregoing discussion and analysis of segment results of operations, we do not include a gross up of segment expenses and revenues for these pass-through reimbursed expenses. The amounts of reimbursed expenses and related revenues offset each other in our results of operations with no impact to our net income or operating earnings (loss). A reconciliation of revenues before reimbursements to consolidated revenues determined in accordance with GAAP is self-evident from the face of the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statements of income.
Operating earnings is the primary financial performance measure used by our senior management and chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) to evaluate the financial performance of our operating segments and make resource allocation decisions. Unlike net income, our operating earnings measure is not a standard performance measure found in GAAP. However, since it is our segment measure of profitability presented in conformity with the Financial Accounting Standards Board's (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 280 “Segment Reporting,” it is not considered a non-GAAP financial measure requiring reconciliation pursuant to Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) guidance contained in Regulation G and Item 10(e) of Regulation S-K. We believe this measure is useful to others in that it allows them to evaluate segment operating performance using the same criteria our management and CODM use. Operating earnings represent segment earnings (loss) before certain unallocated corporate and shared costs and credits, net corporate interest expense, stock option expense, amortization of customer-relationship intangible assets, special charges, income taxes, and net income or loss attributable to noncontrolling interests.

Press Release
CRAWFORD & COMPANY 1001 SUMMIT BOULEVARD ATLANTA, GEORGIA 30319 (404) 300-1000
Income tax expense, net corporate interest expense, amortization of customer-relationship intangible assets, and stock option expense are recurring components of our net income, but they are not considered part of our segment operating earnings (loss) because they are managed on a corporate-wide basis. Income tax expense is calculated for the Company on a consolidated basis based on statutory rates in effect in the various jurisdictions in which we provide services, and varies significantly by jurisdiction. Net corporate interest expense results from capital structure decisions made by senior management and affecting the Company as a whole. Amortization expense is a non-cash expense for customer-relationship intangible assets resulting from business combinations. Stock option expense represents the non-cash costs generally related to stock options and employee stock purchase plan expenses which are not allocated to our operating segments. None of these costs relate directly to the performance of our services or operating activities and, therefore, are excluded from segment operating earnings in order to better assess the results of each segment’s operating activities on a consistent basis.
Special charges may arise from events (such as expenses related to restructurings, losses on subleases, etc.) that are not allocated to any particular segment since they historically have not regularly impacted our performance and are not expected to impact our future performance on a regular basis.
Unallocated corporate and shared costs and credits represent expenses and credits related to our chief executive officer and Board of Directors, certain provisions for bad debt allowances or subsequent recoveries such as those related to bankrupt clients, defined benefit pension costs or credits for our frozen U.S. pension plan, and certain self-insurance costs and recoveries that are not allocated to our individual operating segments.
Following is a reconciliation of segment operating earnings (loss) to net income attributable to shareholders of Crawford & Company on a GAAP basis and the related margins as a percentage of revenues before reimbursements for all periods presented (in thousands, except percentages):
