FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
CheckFree Reports Fiscal 2007 Second Quarter Results
ATLANTA (Jan. 30, 2007)— CheckFree Corporation (Nasdaq: CKFR) today announced second quarter revenue of $237.2 million, representing 11 percent growth over the same period last year. The Company’s Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) net income for the quarter was $35.3 million, or $0.39 per share, and underlying net income was $41.8 million, or $0.46 per share. Free cash flow was $48.0 million for the second quarter as outlined inAttachment A.
GAAP Results:Net income for the second quarter of fiscal 2007 was $35.3 million, compared to net income of $33.8 million for the same quarter last year. Earnings per share were $0.39 for the second quarter of fiscal 2007, compared to earnings per share of $0.36 for the second quarter of last year. Net cash provided by operating activities was $58.9 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2007, compared to $56.8 million for the same period last year.
Underlying Results:Underlying net income for the second quarter was $41.8 million, compared to $41.0 million for the same quarter of last year. Underlying earnings per share were $0.46 for the second quarter of fiscal 2007, compared to $0.44 per share for the second quarter of last year. Underlying net income and earnings per share for the second quarter of fiscal 2007 exclude the amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets and the SFAS 123(R) impact of stock options issued prior to July 1, 2004, all net of related income tax benefits. Underlying net income and earnings per share for the second quarter of fiscal 2006 include the historical results of discontinued operations, which resulted from a business that was divested in the third quarter of fiscal 2006; and exclude the amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets and the SFAS 123(R) impact of stock options issued prior to July 1, 2004; net of related income tax effects from each of the foregoing. A reconciliation of CheckFree’s quarterly and annual underlying results to its GAAP results is included inAttachment A.
“CheckFree’s Electronic Commerce business reported solid growth in core, bank-based transactions during the quarter, while the smaller base of non-bank transactions were behind our expectations,” said Pete Kight, CheckFree Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “Our Software business showed better-than-expected results and our Investment Services business performed as expected during the quarter, with accounts under management increasing nicely. The second half of our fiscal year will be all about balancing execution with investment in longer term growth initiatives.”

Second Quarter Highlights
During the second quarter of fiscal 2007, the Company reported that the Electronic Commerce Division processed 322.0 million transactions. Consumer Service Provider (CSP) transactions at banks, credit unions and other financial institutions increased 7 percent sequentially and non-CSP transactions declined 7 percent, reflecting an overall sequential transaction growth rate of 3 percent. During the second quarter, the Company delivered 54.9 million electronic bills, a 6 percent sequential quarterly increase.
The CheckFree Software Division reported results that exceeded expectations, with strong license sales in its global treasury products. The CheckFree Investment Services Division reported more than 2.6 million portfolios under management, compared to 2.1 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2006, representing a 24 percent year-over-year increase. Refer toAttachment Bfor details on the financial performance of CheckFree’s divisions in the second quarter of fiscal 2007, andAttachment Cfor electronic billing and payment metrics.
The Company also announced that it repurchased nearly 1.3 million shares of its common stock for approximately $50 million during the second quarter of fiscal 2007.
Financial Outlook for the Third Quarter
“For the third quarter of the fiscal year, we expect revenue between $241 million and $246 million, with GAAP earnings per share in the range of $0.39 to $0.41, which equates to underlying earnings per share in the range of $0.47 to $0.49,” said David Mangum, CheckFree Chief Financial Officer.
“In Electronic Commerce, we expect sequential transaction growth of 5 to 7 percent in our CSP channel, and non-CSP transaction volumes to be flat or decline by as much as 2 percent,” Mangum continued. “We expect revenue performance in our Software Division to experience a modest sequential decline from the second quarter, and portfolio growth in Investment Services to be consistent with historical rates in the third quarter.”
“Our full-year expectations for earnings per share remain $1.58 to $1.62 on a GAAP basis and $1.90 to $1.94 on an underlying basis,” he said. “And we continue to expect free cash flow in the range of $190 million to $195 million for fiscal 2007.”
“Our full-year expectations do not include any impact from the acquisition of Carreker, which we announced on January 2, 2007,” said Mangum. “We provided high-level financial expectations when we announced the acquisition, and expect to provide more specific information after the deal closes, which is expected to occur on or about March 31, 2007.”
The difference between GAAP and underlying earnings expectations for the third quarter of fiscal 2007 is due to expected acquisition-related intangible amortization expenses, the SFAS 123(R) impact of stock options issued prior to July 1, 2004, and the related income tax benefits from each of the foregoing.

Certain of the Company’s statements in this press release are not purely historical, and as such are “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These include statements regarding management’s intentions, plans, beliefs, expectations or projections of the future, and include statements regarding the Company’s proposed acquisition of Carreker, as well as the Company’s forecasts and expectations of, revenue for the third quarter of fiscal 2007, earnings per share for the third quarter of fiscal 2007 and for fiscal 2007, sequential transaction growth and the general performance of the Company’s divisions in the third quarter of fiscal 2007, and free cash flow for fiscal 2007 as a whole (paragraphs 4, 8, 9, 10, 11 and 12). Forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties, including without limitation, the various risks inherent in the Company’s business, and other risks and uncertainties detailed from time to time in the Company’s periodic reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2006 (filed September 8, 2006) and Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2006 (filed November 8, 2006).

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information
We supplement our reporting of cash flow information determined in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”) by using “free cash flow” in this earnings release as a measure to evaluate our liquidity. We define free cash flow as net cash provided by operating activities, exclusive of the net change in settlement accounts and less capital expenditures, plus data center reimbursements. We believe free cash flow provides useful information to management and investors in understanding our financial results and assessing our prospects for future performance. We also use free cash flow as a factor in determining long-term incentive compensation for senior management.
We exclude the net change in settlement accounts from free cash flow because we believe this facilitates management’s and investors’ ability to analyze operating cash flow trends. In connection with our walk-in payment business, our consolidated balance sheet reflects settlement assets and settlement obligations. The settlement assets represent payment receipts in transit to us from agents, and the settlement obligations represent scheduled but unpaid payments due to billers. Balances in settlement accounts fluctuate daily based on deposit timing and payment transaction volume. These timing differences are not reflective of our liquidity, and thus, we exclude the net change in settlement accounts from free cash flow.
As a technology company, we make significant capital expenditures in order to update our technology and to remain competitive. Our free cash flow reflects the amount of cash we generated that remains, after we have met those operational needs, for the evaluation and execution of strategic initiatives such as acquisitions, stock and/or debt repurchases and other investing and financing activities, including servicing additional debt obligations. During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2006, we entered into a credit facility to finance the construction of data centers. Amounts we spend to construct these data centers are included in our capital expenditures, but will be fully reimbursed by the credit facility. The reimbursements from the credit facility are added to our free cash flow measure because these expenditures do not impact our overall liquidity. The data center reimbursements line represents a change to our definition of free cash flow as of the quarter ended June 30, 2006.
Free cash flow does not solely represent residual cash flow available for discretionary expenditures, as certain of our non-discretionary obligations are also funded out of free cash flow. These consist primarily of payments on capital leases and other long-term commitments, if any, as reflected in the table entitled “Contractual Obligations” in the “Liquidity and Capital Resources” section of “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2006, which we filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on September 8, 2006.
The Company’s free cash flow should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for, net cash provided by operating activities or any other amount determined in accordance with GAAP. Further, CheckFree’s measure of free cash flow may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information
We supplement our reporting of total revenues, income (loss) from operations, net income (loss) and earnings (loss) per share information determined in accordance with GAAP by using “underlying revenue,” “underlying income (loss) from operations,” “underlying net income (loss)” and “underlying earnings (loss) per share” in this earnings release. Management believes that certain non-cash adjustments to revenues or expenses enhance our evaluation of our performance, and are not pertinent to day-to-day operational decision making in the business. Therefore, we exclude these items from GAAP revenue, income (loss) from operations, net income (loss) and earnings (loss) per share in calculating underlying revenue, underlying income (loss) from operations, underlying net income (loss) and underlying earnings (loss) per share.
Examples of such non-cash charges may include, but not be limited to, intangible asset amortization expense and in-process research and development costs associated with acquisitions, charges associated with the impairment of intangible assets, the impact of discontinued operations, charges resulting from warrants issued to third parties, the SFAS 123(R) impact of stock options issued prior to July 1, 2004 and charges associated with reorganization activities, all offset by the cumulative tax impact of these charges. We exclude these items in order to more clearly focus on the factors we believe are pertinent to the daily management of our operations, and our management uses underlying results to evaluate the impact of operational business decisions. We regularly report underlying results to our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, our chief operating decision maker, who uses this information in allocating resources to our various business units. Additionally, as we reward our management for their decisions that increase revenues and decrease controllable costs, we use underlying revenues and underlying income (loss) from operations as factors in determining short-term incentive compensation for management, and use underlying revenues, underlying net income (loss) and underlying earnings (loss) per share as factors in determining long-term incentive compensation for management.
Because we utilize underlying financial results in the management of our business and to determine incentive compensation for management, we believe this supplemental information is useful to investors for their independent evaluation and understanding of the performance of our management and our core business performance. Our underlying revenues, underlying income (loss) from operations, underlying net income (loss) and underlying earnings (loss) per share should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for, revenues, income (loss) from operations, net income (loss) or earnings (loss) per share or any other amount determined in accordance with GAAP. Our measures of underlying revenues, underlying income (loss) from operations, underlying net income (loss) and underlying earnings (loss) per share reflect management’s judgment of particular items, and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

(1) | | At the beginning of fiscal 2005, we implemented a new long-term incentive compensation philosophy, which significantly reduced overall participation and focused on restricted stock with limited stock options. As a result, we recorded the cost of restricted stock throughout fiscal 2005 in both underlying and GAAP results. In fiscal 2006, we have adopted SFAS 123(R), and are consequently recording all long-term incentive grants, both restricted stock and options, as an expense to both underlying and GAAP results. The adjustment from GAAP to underlying operating results in the table above reflects the SFAS 123(R) charge associated with options granted prior to July 1, 2004 under our previous compensation philosophy, which were originally accounted for utilizing APB 25. |
|
(2) | | In the third quarter ended March 31, 2006, the divestiture of our M-Solutions business, a component of our Investment Services segment, created a unique situation for our presentation of underlying results versus GAAP results. SFAS 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets,” requires us to report the results of operations from the disposed business, including any gain or loss on the sale, as an income statement item separately captioned “earnings from discontinued operations” on our GAAP basis unaudited condensed Statements of Operations. This treatment is required for all periods presented, not just the period in which the sale took place. In contrast, for purposes of our underlying results, we have excluded the gain on disposition in the current periods, and included the results of the M-Solutions business for the periods of time that we owned the business and for all of the prior periods presented. |
