Definitions of non-GAAP financial measures and the reconciliations to related GAAP measures are provided in subsequent sections of the press release narrative and supplemental schedules. Black Knight has not provided a reconciliation of forward-looking Adjusted Net Earnings Per Share and Adjusted EBITDA growth to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures, due primarily to variability and difficulty in making accurate forecasts and projections of non-operating matters that may arise, as not all of the information necessary for a quantitative reconciliation is available to Black Knight without unreasonable effort.

Segment Information

Technology

Adjusted Revenues for the second quarter of 2017 increased 3% to $220.5 million from $213.2 million in the prior year quarter. Our servicing technology business had Adjusted Revenues growth of 7%, primarily driven by favorable client mix, price increases and higher transactional volumes. In our origination technology business, Adjusted Revenues declined 11% primarily driven by lower consulting revenues and volumes on the Exchange as a result of a decline in refinancing originations, partially offset by the eLynx acquisition. Adjusted EBITDA increased 5% to $129.5 million from $122.9 million, with an Adjusted EBITDA Margin of 58.7%, an increase of 110 basis points compared to the prior year quarter.

Adjusted Revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2017 increased 6% to $441.1 million from $415.6 million in the 2016 period. Adjusted EBITDA increased 8% to $256.4 million from $238.3 million, with an Adjusted EBITDA Margin of 58.1%, an increase of 80 basis points compared to the 2016 period.

Data and Analytics

Adjusted Revenues for the second quarter of 2017 were $42.9 million compared to $44.3 million in the prior year quarter. Excluding the effect of the Property Insight realignment, Adjusted Revenues increased $6.4 million, or 17.5%, from the prior year quarter driven by growth in our property data and multiple listing service businesses and the Motivity Solutions acquisition. Adjusted EBITDA increased 46% to $9.9 million from $6.8 million, with an Adjusted EBITDA Margin of 23.1%, an increase of 780 basis points compared to the prior year quarter.

Adjusted Revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2017 were $81.8 million compared to $86.1 million in the 2016 period. Excluding the effect of the Property Insight realignment, Adjusted Revenues increased $10.7 million, or 15%, from the 2016 period. Adjusted EBITDA increased 13% to $15.3 million from $13.6 million, with an Adjusted EBITDA Margin of 18.7%, an increase of 290 basis points compared to the 2016 period.

Realignment of Property Insight

Effective January 1, 2017, Property Insight, LLC ("Property Insight"), a Black Knight subsidiary that provides information used by title insurance underwriters, title agents and closing attorneys to source and underwrite title insurance for real property sales and transfer, realigned its commercial relationship with FNF. In connection with the realignment, Property Insight employees responsible for title plant posting and maintenance were transferred to FNF. Under the new commercial arrangement, Black Knight continues to own the title plant technology and retains sales responsibility for third parties, other than FNF. As a result of the realignment, Black Knight no longer recognizes revenues or expenses related to title plant posting and maintenance, but charges FNF a license fee for use of the technology to access and maintain the title plant data. Had the realignment taken place on January 1, 2016, Black Knight revenues and expenses for 2016 would have been lower by approximately $30 million with essentially no effect to Adjusted EBITDA.

Planned Distribution of FNF's Ownership Interest

We made significant progress on the planned distribution of FNF's ownership interest in Black Knight during the second quarter, with several milestones achieved. FNF announced the receipt of the private letter ruling on May 10, we signed the formal agreements with FNF on June 8, we filed the preliminary Registration Statements on Forms S-4 and S-1 with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") on June 13 and June 21, respectively, received comments from the SEC on July 10 and filed Amendment No. 1 to Forms S-1 and S-4 with the SEC on July 18. Once the SEC declares the Registration Statements on Forms S-1 and S-4 effective, we can mail the proxy statement/prospectus to shareholders and then have the shareholder vote at the earliest twenty business days after the mailing. We still expect a third quarter closing for the distribution.

Share Repurchase Program

During the second quarter ended June 30, 2017, Black Knight repurchased approximately 1.2 million shares of its common stock for $46.6 million, or an average price of $39.18 per share. At the end of the second quarter, Black Knight had approximately 8.8 million shares remaining under its share repurchase program.

Balance Sheet

As of June 30, 2017, Black Knight had cash and cash equivalents of $99.3 million and debt of $1,560.8 million. As of June 30, 2017, Black Knight had available capacity of $350.0 million on its revolving credit facility.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This earnings release presents non-GAAP financial information, including Adjusted Revenues, Adjusted Revenues Excluding the Effect of the Property Insight Realignment, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Adjusted Net Earnings and Adjusted Net Earnings Per Share. These are important financial performance measures for Black Knight, but are not financial measures as defined by generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). The presentation of this financial information is not intended to be considered in isolation of or as a substitute for, or superior to, the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP. Black Knight uses these non-GAAP financial performance measures for financial and operational decision making and as a means to evaluate period-to-period comparisons. Black Knight believes they provide useful information about operating results, enhance the overall understanding of past financial performance and future prospects and allow for greater transparency with respect to key metrics used by management in its financial and operational decision making, including determining a portion of executive compensation. Reconciliations of these measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are presented in the attached schedules.

Adjusted Revenues and Adjusted EBITDA for the Technology and Data and Analytics segments are presented in conformity with Accounting Standards Codification 280, Segment Reporting. These measures are reported to the chief operating decision maker for purposes of making decisions about allocating resources to the segments and assessing their performance. For these reasons, these measures are excluded from the definition of non-GAAP financial measures under the SEC's Regulation G and Item 10(e) of Regulation S-K.

Adjusted Revenues - We define Adjusted Revenues as Revenues adjusted to include the revenues that were not recorded by Black Knight during the periods presented due to the deferred revenue purchase accounting adjustment recorded in accordance with GAAP. These adjustments are reflected in Corporate and Other. This adjustment for the full year 2017 is expected to be approximately $4.5 million.

Adjusted Revenues Excluding the Effect of the Property Insight Realignment - We define Adjusted Revenues excluding the effect of the Property Insight realignment as Adjusted Revenues for the respective 2016 period determined on the basis as if the Property Insight realignment had taken place on January 1, 2016.

Adjusted EBITDA - We define Adjusted EBITDA as Net earnings, with adjustments to reflect the addition or elimination of certain income statement items including, but not limited to:

  • Depreciation and amortization;
  • Interest expense;
  • Income tax expense;
  • Other expense, net;
  • Loss (gain) from discontinued operations, net of tax;
  • deferred revenue purchase accounting adjustment recorded in accordance with GAAP;
  • equity-based compensation, including related payroll taxes;
  • costs associated with debt and/or equity offerings, including the planned tax-free spin-off of Black Knight from FNF;
  • spin-off related transition costs; and
  • acquisition-related costs.

These adjustments are reflected in Corporate and Other.

Adjusted EBITDA Margin - Adjusted EBITDA Margin is calculated by dividing Adjusted EBITDA by Adjusted Revenues.

Adjusted Net Earnings - We define Adjusted Net Earnings as Net earnings with adjustments to reflect the addition or elimination of certain income statement items including, but not limited to:

  • the net incremental depreciation and amortization adjustments associated with the application of purchase accounting;
  • deferred revenue purchase accounting adjustment;
  • equity-based compensation, including related payroll taxes;
  • costs associated with debt and/or equity offerings, including the planned tax-free spin-off of Black Knight from FNF;
  • spin-off related transition costs;
  • acquisition-related costs;
  • significant legal and regulatory matters; and
  • adjustment for income tax expense at our full year estimated effective tax rate of 37.0% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, assuming the conversion of all the shares of Class B common stock into shares of Class A common stock, assuming that Black Knight was a taxable entity as of the beginning of the earliest period presented and assuming the effect of the non-GAAP adjustments.

Adjusted Net Earnings Per Share - We calculate per share amounts assuming the exchange of all shares of Class B common stock into shares of our Class A common stock at the beginning of the respective period, as well as the dilutive effect of any unvested restricted shares of Class A common stock.

(1) The numerator in the diluted net earnings per share calculation is adjusted to reflect our income tax expense at an expected effective tax rate assuming the conversion of the shares of Class B common stock into shares of Class A common stock on a one-for-one basis. The shares of Class B common stock do not share in the earnings or losses of Black Knight and are, therefore, not participating securities. Accordingly, basic and diluted net earnings per share of Class B common stock have not been presented. The expected effective tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 was 58.2% and 44.0%, respectively, including certain discrete items recorded during the second quarter.  The expected effective tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 was 35.2% and 35.3%, respectively. The denominator includes approximately 84.7 million and 84.8 million shares of Class B common stock outstanding for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, respectively, and approximately 84.8 million shares for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016. The denominator also includes the dilutive effect of approximately 0.6 million and 0.5 million shares of unvested restricted shares of Class A common stock for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, respectively, and approximately 2.0 million shares for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016.
