The McGraw-Hill Companies Reports
Second Quarter EPS of $0.52
New York, NY, July 28, 2009—The McGraw-Hill Companies (NYSE: MHP) today reported earnings per diluted share of $0.52 for the second quarter of 2009. The results include a total of $0.06 per diluted share for a net restructuring charge and a loss on a divestiture.
In the second quarter, the corporation incurred a pre-tax restructuring charge of $24.3 million for a workforce reduction of approximately 550 positions. It was partially offset by a reversal of $9.1 million for changes in severance estimates from previous restructuring initiatives which resulted in a net pre-tax charge of $15.2 million. After taxes, the net charge was $9.7 million, or $0.03 per diluted share. The sale of Vista Research at the end of May resulted in a pre-tax loss of $13.8 million, or $0.03 per diluted share.
In the second quarter of 2008, The McGraw-Hill Companies reported earnings per diluted share of $0.66, including a $0.05 restructuring charge.
Net income for the second quarter of 2009 decreased 22.7% to $164.1 million compared to the same period last year.
Revenue in the second quarter decreased 12.4% to $1.5 billion.
“Strength in U.S. higher education, the global corporate bond market and at Platts, our worldwide energy information service, were offset by softness in the elementary-high school market, structured finance and advertising in the second quarter,” said Harold McGraw III, chairman, president and chief executive officer of The McGraw-Hill Companies. “In the face of challenging economic conditions, we reduced costs and expenses by 9.5% in the second quarter. Cost containment will be a priority all year.
Education: “Revenue in this segment decreased by 17.2% to $555.2 million in the second quarter compared to the same period last year. Reflecting a net pre-tax restructuring charge of $11.6 million, operating profit declined by 70.1% to $21.0 million compared to $70.3 million for the same period last year, which included a restructuring charge of $8.5 million. Foreign exchange rates reduced revenue by $10.1 million, but had an immaterial impact on operating profit.
“Revenue for the McGraw-Hill School Education Group decreased by 22.7% to $338.6 million in the second quarter.
“Revenue for the McGraw-Hill Higher Education, Professional and International Group was down by 6.9% to $216.6 million.
“A declining elementary-high school market in 2009 and challenging comparisons because of early success in the 2008 state new adoption market were key factors in the McGraw-Hill School Education Group’s performance in the second quarter this year. The promising new Federal stimulus funding for education had a negligible impact in the second quarter.
“In 2008, the McGraw-Hill School Education Group benefited from substantial second quarter orders from Florida (K–5 reading), California (K–8 math and science) and Texas (K–5 math). In 2009, Texas is not participating in the state new adoption market and school districts in this year’s key adoption states — California (K–8 reading/literature and second year math) and Florida (6–12 literature and K–12 music) — are reducing orders from historic levels as educators struggle with budget uncertainties.
“In the open territory, the sales decline has been less pronounced, but school districts there tend to do more purchasing in the third quarter. In a soft supplemental market, growing sales of intervention products partially offset lower demand for backlist products.
“In view of the trend in California and Florida, we are cutting our estimate for this year’s state new adoption market to a range of $500 million to $550 million. Our previous range was $550 million to $600 million for state new adoptions in 2009. We still expect the elementary-high school market to decline 15% to 20% in 2009.
“In testing, our award-winning formative assessment program (Acuity) continued to win new contracts and renewals. But shortfalls in custom and off-the-shelf products and services offset the gains in formative testing during the second quarter.
“For the McGraw-Hill Higher Education, Professional and International Group, a solid performance in the U.S. college and university market was offset by foreign exchange, softness in some international markets and weakness at retail as booksellers continue to reduce inventory and limit new orders.
“In the U.S. college and university market, all our major imprints produced gains in the second quarter. Given the solid start this year in the college market, we are raising our estimate for industry sales in 2009. It now appears that the market may grow 5% to 7% this year. Previously, we had forecasted growth of 3% to 4% in 2009.
“In both the higher education and professional markets, a growing lineup of digital products and services recorded strong double-digit increases in the second quarter. Our online study tools for students, which include the McGraw-Hill Connect series, are rapidly gaining traction in the college and university market.
“In professional markets, our digital subscription products in science, medicine and technology continue to grow globally and experience strong renewals.
Financial Services: “Revenue for this segment declined 8.4% to $673.8 million in the second quarter compared to the same period last year. Operating profit decreased by 8.8% to $276.4 million reflecting a pre-tax loss of $13.8 million from the divestiture of Vista Research and a pre-tax net benefit of $0.4 million from restructuring charges. Operating profit in the second quarter of 2008 included a pre-tax restructuring charge of $15.2 million. Foreign exchange rates reduced revenue in the second quarter by $26.0 million, and operating profit by $8.0 million.
“Revenue for Standard & Poor’s Credit Market Services, which provides independent credit ratings, credit risk evaluations and ratings-related information and products, declined by 9.9% to $457.4 million in second quarter compared to the same period last year.
“Revenue for Standard & Poor’s Investment Services, which provides comprehensive value-added financial data, information, investment indices and research, was off 4.9% to $216.4 million in the second quarter compared to the same period last year.
“Non-transaction revenue at S&P Credit Market Services declined 3.1% to $310.6 million in the second quarter compared to the same period last year. A reduction in fees earned for work performed on canceled transactions was the primary reason for the $9.9 million decline in non-transaction revenue, which also includes surveillance fees, annual contracts and subscriptions. In the second quarter of 2009, non-transaction revenue accounted for 67.9% of S&P Credit Market Services revenue compared to 63.1% in the second quarter of 2008.
“Reflecting reduced new issue activity in global bond markets, transaction revenue at S&P Credit Market Services declined 21.6%, or $40.5 million, to $146.8 million in the second quarter compared to the same period last year. Transaction revenue includes ratings of publicly-issued debt, bank loan ratings and corporate credit estimates.
“New issue dollar volume in the United States dropped by 24.6% in the second quarter compared to the same period last year, according to S&P estimates and information from Thomson Financial and Harrison Scott Publications. Corporate new issue dollar volume decreased by 26.0%. Public finance was off by 22.1%. Mortgage-backed securities increased by 27.3%. Asset-backed securities declined by 25.8%. Collateralized debt obligations fell by 84.1%.
“In Europe, new issue dollar volume in the second quarter was down by 20.0% compared to the same period last year.
“In the second quarter, Standard & Poor’s Credit Market Services’ international revenue declined by $24.0 million, or 10.2%, to $211.5 million compared to the same period last year; $21.0 million of the decrease was attributed to foreign exchange rates. International revenue accounted for 46.2% of S&P Credit Market Services revenue compared to 46.4% for the same period last year.
“For S&P Investment Services, gains at Capital IQ were offset by divestitures and softness in index services, investment research products and services for retail markets.
“Capital IQ benefited from strong international growth and finished the second quarter with more than 2,800 clients, up by 14.2% compared to the same period last year and 5.2% since the end of 2008.
“A drop in over-the-counter derivatives trading activity tied to S&P commodities and strategy indices, and a decline in asset-based fees from exchange-traded funds were key factors in the performance of index services in the second quarter. Assets under management in exchange-traded funds based on S&P indices declined at the end of the second quarter by 8.0% to $189.8 billion compared to $206.3 billion for the second quarter of 2008.
Information & Media: “Revenue for this segment declined by 11.5% to $236.2 million in the second quarter compared to the same period last year. Including a net pre-tax restructuring charge of $4.0 million, operating profit fell by 41.8% to $14.4 million. Foreign exchange rates did not have a material effect on revenue, but had a $2.5 million favorable impact on operating profit.
“Second quarter revenue and operating profit were affected by the conversion of a number of J.D. Power and Associates’ syndicated studies to an online platform. As a result, an estimated $3.4 million of revenue and $2.9 million of operating profit that would have been recognized in the second quarter were deferred and will be recognized ratably over the 12-month service period.
“For the Business-to-Business Group, revenue in the second quarter decreased by 10.2% to $215.8 million. The group includes the following brands: Aviation Week, BusinessWeek, J.D. Power and Associates, McGraw-Hill Construction, and Platts.
“A solid performance by Platts in global energy markets in the second quarter was offset by weakness in the automotive sector at J.D. Power and a decline in advertising in Aviation, Construction and BusinessWeek. Advertising pages in BusinessWeek’s global edition declined by 34.3% in the second quarter.
“For the Broadcasting Group, revenue in the second quarter was off 23.1% to $20.4 million as both local and national time sales declined.
The Outlook: “In view of weakening market conditions in advertising and school education, we now expect revenue to decline 5.5% to 6.5% in 2009. Previously, we had anticipated a decrease of 4.0% to 5.0%. We are also refining our guidance for earnings per diluted share. Previously, the range was $2.20 to $2.30. With continued tight cost controls, the new forecast is $2.20 to $2.25, excluding the second quarter restructuring charge and the divestiture of Vista Research, although it appears we will come in at the low end of the range.”
