Other Information
All percentage amounts and ratios
were calculated using the underlying data in whole dollars. We
measure constant currency, or the effects on our results that are
attributable to foreign currency changes, by measuring the
incremental difference between translating the prior period and the
current results at the monthly average rates for the same period
from the prior year.
Foreign Currency:
Exchange rates between most of the major foreign currencies we
use to transact our business and the U.S. dollar have fluctuated
significantly over the last few years and we expect that they will
continue to fluctuate. The majority of our revenues and costs are
denominated in Euros, Pound Sterling, Swiss francs, Canadian
dollars and other international currencies. The following table
provides the average quarterly exchange rates for the Euro and
Pound Sterling since the beginning of fiscal year 2015:

During three months ended September 30, 2015, as compared
to the three months ended September 30, 2014, the U.S. dollar
strengthened against many of the foreign currencies we use to
transact our business. The average U.S. dollar strengthened versus
the Euro by 16.1% and the Pound Sterling by 7.2%, which decreased
our associated revenues and expenses during fiscal year 2016. A
hypothetical 5% increase or decrease in the U.S. dollar versus
other currencies in which we transact our business would have
resulted in an increase or decrease, as the case may be, to our
revenues of $7.7 million during the
first quarter ended September 30, 2015.
Net Loss Attributable to Solera Holdings, Inc.:
The net loss attributable to Solera
Holding, Inc. reported for the first quarter of fiscal year
2016 was primarily due to increased expenses related to a decrease
in the fair value of our derivative financial instruments, an
increase in interest expense due to additional senior unsecured
notes issued in November 2014 and
July 2015, and professional services
and related costs incurred in relation to the proposed acquisition
of Solera by Vista.
Quarterly Dividend:
Our Board of Directors approved the payment of a quarterly cash
dividend of $0.225 per share of
outstanding common stock and per outstanding restricted stock unit.
The dividends are payable on December 3, 2015 to stockholders
and restricted stock unit holders of record at the close of
business on November 19, 2015.

Solera will release its financial results for the first quarter
ended September 30, 2015 on Thursday, November 5, 2015,
after the market close. A conference call will be hosted by Tony

During the first
quarter of fiscal year 2016, we partially settled our foreign
exchange forward contract for a cash payment of $8.9 million. This
cash payment is excluded from the determination of Adjusted Net
Income and Cash EPS as it is of a nonrecurring nature. Settlement
of the remaining foreign exchange forward contract with a notional
amount of €235.8 million was extended to July 2016. As of the
settlement extension date, the unrealized loss on the remaining
outstanding notional amount was approximately $8.6 million.
This unrealized loss is also excluded from the determination of
Adjusted Net Income and Cash EPS consistent with our definition of
these non-GAAP financial measures.

The decrease in
redeemable noncontrolling interests is primarily attributable to
the acquisition of the remaining 50% of the equity interests in our
Service Repair Solutions, Inc. ("SRS") majority-owned subsidiary in
the first quarter of fiscal year 2016. After this acquisition, we
now own 100% of SRS. As a result, the redeemable noncontrolling
interests related to SRS was eliminated.

Cautions about Forward-Looking Statements:
This press release contains forward-looking statements,
including statements about: our expected dividend payment and the
expected payment date; our expectations and beliefs regarding
changes in foreign currency exchange rates; and historical results
or performance that may suggest trends for our business. These
statements are based on our current expectations, estimates and
assumptions and are subject to many risks, uncertainties and
unknown future events that could cause actual results to differ
materially. Actual results may differ materially from those set
forth in this press release due to the risks and uncertainties
inherent in our business, including, without limitation:
unpredictability and volatility of our operating results, which
include the volatility associated with foreign currency exchange
risks, our sales cycle, seasonality, global economic conditions,
acquisitions and other factors; risks associated with and possible
negative consequences of acquisitions, joint ventures, divestitures
and similar transactions, including regulatory matters and our
ability to successfully integrate our acquired businesses; risks
associated with a diversified business; successful integration of
acquired businesses that operate in industries outside of our core
market; rapid technology changes in our industries, which could
affect customer decisions regarding the purchase of our software
and services; development of claims processing and other products
and services in areas other than automobile insurance, including
our "digital garage" and risk and asset management platform; our
relationship with insurance company customers as they continue
global expansion; revenue growth resulting from the launch of new
software and services, including our "digital garage" and risk and
asset management platform; effects of competition on our software
and service pricing and our business; time and expenses associated
with customers switching from competitive software and services to
our software and services; risks associated with operating in
multiple countries; effects of changes in or violations by us or
our customers of government regulations; our ability to obtain
additional financing as necessary to support our operations,
including Mission 2020 ($2 billion in
revenue and $840 million in Adjusted
EBITDA by June 30, 2020); use of cash
to service our debt and effects on our business of restrictive
covenants in our bond indentures; our reliance on third-party
information for our software and services; our dependence on a
limited number of key personnel; costs and possible future losses
or impairments relating to our acquisitions; the financial impact
of future significant restructuring and severance charges; the
impact of changes in our tax provision (benefit) or effective tax
rate; our ability to pay dividends or repurchase shares in future
periods; our reliance on a limited number of customers for a
substantial portion of our revenues; effects of system failures or
security breaches on our business and reputation; and any material
adverse impact of current or future litigation on our results or
business. For a discussion of these and other factors that could
impact our operations or financial results and cause our results to
differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements,
please refer to our filings with the Securities and Exchange
Commission, particularly our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the
fiscal year ended June 30, 2015. Solera is under no obligation
to (and specifically disclaims any such obligation to) update or
alter our forward-looking statements whether as a result of new
information, future events or otherwise.
Explanation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures:
To supplement our financial results on a GAAP basis, we use a
number of non-GAAP financial measures that management believes
provide additional information with respect to the performance of
our fundamental business activities and are also frequently used by
securities analysts, investors and other interested parties to
facilitate the evaluation of our business on a comparable basis to
other companies. Our non-GAAP financial measures are not meant to
be considered in isolation or as a substitute for comparable GAAP
measures and should be read only in conjunction with our
consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with
GAAP.
The three primary non-GAAP financial measures that we use are
Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income, and Cash EPS. We believe that
Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income and Cash EPS are useful to
investors in providing information regarding our operating results.
We rely on Adjusted EBITDA as a primary measure to review and
assess the operating performance of our company and our management
team in connection with our executive compensation and bonus plans.
Adjusted EBITDA also allows us to compare our current operating
results with corresponding prior periods as well as to the
operating results of other companies in our industry. We present
Adjusted Net Income and Cash EPS because we believe both of these
measures provide useful information regarding our operating results
in addition to our GAAP measures. We believe that Adjusted Net
Income and Cash EPS provide investors with valuable insight into
our profitability exclusive of unusual adjustments, and provide
further insight into the cash impact resulting from the different
treatments of goodwill for financial reporting and tax
purposes.
Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income and Cash EPS have
limitations as analytical tools, and should not be considered in
isolation or as a substitute for net income, net income per share
and other consolidated income statement data prepared in accordance
with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. Because of these
limitations, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income, and Cash EPS
should not be considered as a replacement for GAAP net income. We
compensate for these limitations by relying primarily on our GAAP
results and using Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income, and Cash
EPS as supplemental information.
|
|
|
Adjusted EBITDA is a
non-GAAP financial measure that represents GAAP net income (loss)
excluding (i) interest expense, (ii) provision for income
taxes, (iii) depreciation and amortization,
(iv) stock-based compensation expense, (v) restructuring
charges, asset impairments, and other costs associated with exit
and disposal activities, (vi) other (income) expense, net,
(vii) litigation related expenses (recoveries), and
(viii) acquisition and related costs. Acquisition and related
costs include costs incurred in relation to the proposed
acquisition of Solera by Vista, including professional fees and
personnel retention incentives; legal and professional fees and
other transaction costs associated with completed and contemplated
business combinations and asset acquisitions; costs associated with
integrating acquired businesses, including costs incurred to
eliminate workforce redundancies and for product rebranding; and
other charges incurred as a direct result of our acquisition
efforts. These other charges include changes to the fair value of
contingent purchase consideration, acquired assets and assumed
liabilities subsequent to the completion of the purchase price
allocation, purchase price that is deemed to be compensatory in
nature and incentive compensation arrangements with continuing
employees of acquired companies.

|
|
|
Adjusted Net Income
is a non-GAAP financial measure that represents GAAP net income
(loss) attributable to Solera Holdings, Inc. excluding
(i) provision for income taxes, (ii) amortization of
acquired intangible assets, (iii) stock-based compensation
expense, (iv) restructuring charges, asset impairments, and
other costs associated with exit and disposal activities,
(v) other (income) expense, net excluding interest income and
realized gains (losses) on derivative financial instruments, (vi)
litigation related expenses (recoveries), and
(vii) acquisition and related costs. From this amount, we
subtract an assumed provision for income taxes to arrive at
Adjusted Net Income. During fiscal years 2016 and 2015, we assumed
a 24% and 26% income tax rate, respectively, as an approximation of
our long-term effective corporate income tax rate, which is a
non-GAAP financial measure that includes certain benefits from net
operating loss carryforwards, tax credits, tax deductible goodwill
and amortization, and certain holding companies in low tax-rate
jurisdictions.
|
|
|
|
Cash EPS is a
non-GAAP financial measure that represents Adjusted Net Income (as
defined above) divided by the number of diluted shares outstanding
for the period used in the calculation of GAAP net income (loss)
attributable to Solera Holdings, Inc. per diluted common share. If
we report a net loss attributable to Solera Holdings, Inc. for GAAP
purposes, the diluted shares outstanding used in the calculation of
Cash EPS includes the dilutive effective of common stock
equivalents.
