NEW YORK, April 24, 2014 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The NASDAQ OMX Group, Inc.
(Nasdaq:NDAQ) today reported results for the first quarter of 2014. First
quarter net revenues were $529 million, up from $418 million in the prior year
period, driven by both acquisitions and organic growth in all four business
segments. On an organic basis, first quarter net revenues increased 9%
year-over-year.
'Our unique and diverse mix of businesses accelerated meaningfully, resulting
in record financial results for our shareholders,' said Bob Greifeld, CEO,
NASDAQ OMX. 'After a 2013 which included transformative acquisitions and
significant internal investments, NASDAQ OMX has begun 2014 with strong
broad-based organic growth.'
Mr. Greifeld continued, 'While we have benefited from a more constructive
market environment, we also saw meaningful improvement in our leadership
position in the period, as evidenced by our higher U.S. and European equity
trading market share, and our 64% share of U.S. IPOs. Regarding the recent
elevated debate over various U.S. equity market structure issues, NASDAQ OMX
operates its leading exchanges with transparency, fairness, and efficiency, has
been a leading innovator, and will continue to work with regulators and market
participants to evolve our markets.'
On a non-GAAP basis, first quarter 2014 operating expenses were $315 million,
up 33% as compared to the prior year quarter, primarily due to the inclusion of
expenses associated with the acquisitions of the Thomson Reuters IR, PR and
Multimedia businesses and the eSpeed electronic fixed income trading platform.
On an organic basis, first quarter non-GAAP operating expenses were up 6%. On a
GAAP basis, operating expenses were $345 million in the first quarter of 2014,
up 5% compared to $328 million in the prior year quarter.
First quarter 2014 non-GAAP diluted earnings per share was $0.72, compared to
$0.64 in the prior year quarter. Please refer to our reconciliation of GAAP to
non-GAAP net income, diluted earnings per share, operating income and operating
expenses included in the attached schedules.
On a GAAP basis, net income attributable to NASDAQ OMX for the first quarter of
2014 was $103 million, or $0.59 per diluted share, compared with $42 million,
or $0.25 per diluted share, in the prior year quarter.
'Our strategic and measured investments have begun to deliver meaningful
results in 2014,' said Lee Shavel, EVP and CFO, NASDAQ OMX. 'We continue to
make substantial investments in promising GIFT initiatives, and in integration,
infrastructure and product development that we expect to put us in a position
to realize significant synergies from the eSpeed and Thomson Reuters
acquisitions in the coming periods.'
Mr. Shavel continued, 'On the capital front, we continued our strong pace of
deleveraging, paying down $121 million in debt, and we expect to bring our
gross debt/EBITDA leverage ratio to our longer-term target by the end of the
second quarter of 2014.'
At March 31, 2014, the company had cash and cash equivalents of $384 million
and total debt of $2,514 million, resulting in net debt of $2,130 million. This
compares to net debt of $1,375 million at March 31, 2013.

BUSINESS HIGHLIGHTS
Market Services (40% of total net revenues) - Net revenues were $213 million in
the first quarter of 2014, up $31 million when compared to $182 million in the
first quarter of 2013.
Derivatives (14% of total net revenues) - Total net derivative trading and
clearing revenues were $76 million in the first quarter of 2014, up $2 million
compared to the first quarter of 2013. European derivative trading and clearing
revenues rose $2 million, due principally to higher energy revenues. Net U.S.
derivative trading and clearing revenues were unchanged, as higher market
volumes were offset by modestly lower market share and capture.
Cash Equities (11% of total net revenues) - Total net cash equity trading
revenues were $58 million in the first quarter of 2014, up $13 million compared
to the first quarter of 2013. Net U.S. cash equity trading revenues were $9
million higher, on higher market share, average capture, and industry volumes,
while European cash equity trading revenues rose $4 million year-over-year, on
higher market share and market volumes.
Fixed Income (3% of total net revenues) - Total net fixed income trading
revenues were $14 million in the first quarter of 2014, with the decrease from
the fourth quarter of 2013 reflecting an expected decrease in revenues
associated with a 3rd party technology customer.
Access and Broker Services (12% of total net revenues) - Access and broker
services revenues totaled $65 million in the first quarter of 2014, up $2
million compared to the first quarter of 2013, due to pricing increases, the
inclusion of eSpeed hosting revenues, and growth in newer products, like
microwave connectivity.
Information Services (23% of total net revenues) - Revenues were $123 million
in the first quarter of 2014, up $17 million from the first quarter of 2013.
Market Data (19% of total net revenues) - Total market data revenues were $100
million in the first quarter of 2014, up $11 million compared to the first
quarter of 2013, due to the inclusion of market data revenues associated with
eSpeed, growth in NASDAQ Basic, higher equity market share, and the impact of
select pricing initiatives, partially offset by a $1 million decrease in audit
collections.
Index Licensing and Services (4% of total net revenues) - Index licensing and
services revenues were $23 million in the first quarter of 2014, up $6 million
from the first quarter of 2013. The revenue growth was a function of materially
higher assets under management and the number of licensed exchange traded
products.
Technology Solutions (26% of total net revenues) - Revenues were $135 million
in the first quarter of 2014, up $60 million from the first quarter of 2013.
Corporate Solutions (16% of total net revenues) - Corporate solutions revenues
were $82 million in the first quarter of 2014, up $58 million from the first
quarter of 2013. Corporate solutions revenue growth was primarily due to the
inclusion of the Thomson Reuters IR, PR, and Multimedia businesses, as well as
organic growth, in particular the continued growth of Directors Desk.
Market Technology (10% of total net revenues) - Market technology revenues were
$53 million in the first quarter of 2014, up $2 million from the first quarter
of 2013. The revenue increase is primarily due to an increase in software,
license and support revenues as well as an increase in software-as-a-service
revenues due to organic growth, in particular at BWise and SMARTS Broker,
partially offset by slightly lower change request revenues, and an unfavorable
impact from foreign exchange of $1 million.
Listing Services (11% of total net revenues) - Revenues were $58 million in the
first quarter of 2014, up $3 million compared to the first quarter of 2013.
U.S. listing revenues increased $1 million in the first quarter of 2014
compared to the first quarter of 2013, due to growth in the issuer base and
higher new issue activity, including 47 first quarter U.S. IPO wins, 64% of the
industry total. European listing revenues rose by $2 million, and new issue
activity included the IPO of the largest Nordic company by market
capitalization in 14 years, ISS Group A/S.
