Year-over-year revenues increase 32.7%
JACKSONVILLE, Fla., Oct. 22 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Lender Processing Services, Inc. (NYSE: LPS), a leading provider of integrated technology and services to the mortgage and real estate industries, today reported consolidated revenues of $619.4 million for the third quarter of 2009, an increase of 32.7% compared to the third quarter of 2008, and net earnings of $75.5 million or 78 cents per diluted share.
Adjusted net earnings for the third quarter of 2009 were $80.2 million, or 83 cents per diluted share, compared to $57.8 million, or 61 cents per diluted share, in the third quarter of 2008. Adjusted net earnings in the current quarter include an adjustment for purchase amortization of 5 cents per diluted share while the prior year quarter included a similar adjustment of 7 cents per diluted share.
"LPS delivered strong results in the third quarter despite an ongoing difficult business environment. LPS with its broad-based, technology-driven end-to-end solutions for the mortgage and real estate industries, remains well positioned for the fourth quarter and to continue to grow profitably in the years ahead," said Lee A. Kennedy, Executive Chairman of LPS. "All our business segments continued to gain market share in the third quarter. Our Mortgage Processing and other technology businesses posted solid earnings while our Default Services business continued to deliver very strong results. Also, our Loan Facilitation business benefited from a stronger year-over-year origination market," added Jeff Carbiener, President and CEO of LPS.
Operating income of $143.6 million in the quarter improved 32.6% compared to the third quarter of 2008.
Year-to-date pro forma adjusted free cash flow (net cash provided by operating activities including pro forma interest expense for the first six months of 2008, minus additions to property and equipment and capitalized software) for 2009 of $231.6 million compared to $184.1 million for the first nine months of 2008.
Technology, Data and Analytics (TD&A)
Revenues for the segment were $186.3 million compared to $139.0 million in the third quarter of 2008 while operating income of $62.4 million compared to $49.2 million in the prior year quarter. Mortgage Processing revenues of $103.0 million were 23.2% above the third quarter of 2008, primarily due to the conversion of the JPMorgan Chase portfolio on to our mortgage servicing platform. Other TD&A revenues increased by 50.5% to $83.3 million compared to the prior year quarter, mainly due to strong growth in Data and Analytics services, our Desktop application, and the impact of the FNRES acquisition completed in the first quarter of 2009. Excluding the impact of FNRES, Other TD&A revenues were up a strong 32.4%. Overall operating income for TD&A was higher primarily due to higher contributions from Mortgage Processing and Data & Analytics.
Loan Transaction Services (LTS)
Revenues for the segment increased by 33.7% to $440.5 million compared to the third quarter of 2008 while operating income of $101.6 million compared to $74.7 million in the prior year period. Loan Facilitation Services revenues of $136.7 million were up 55.9% compared to the same period last year, mainly due to higher settlement services and increased appraisal volumes. Default Services revenues of $303.8 million increased 25.6% over the third quarter of 2008, primarily due to ongoing strength in the default market and our ability to continue to gain market share. Overall operating income for LTS grew due to higher income in loan origination related offerings, such as settlement services and appraisal, as well as in Default Services.
Corporate and Other
Net corporate expenses were $20.3 million compared to $15.6 million in the third quarter of 2008 and were higher primarily due to higher incentive compensation expenses in the current quarter driven by the strong operating results.
Outlook
"Third quarter and year-to-date 2009 results were very strong and while the broader macro-economic environment and some of our markets continue to present challenges, LPS with its solid market presence remains well positioned for a strong finish in 2009 and to continue to grow revenue and earnings in 2010," said Jeff Carbiener. "Building on the robust year-to-date results, we expect fourth quarter adjusted earnings to be in the range of 77-79 cents per diluted share. For full year 2009, we now expect revenues to grow 26%-28% compared to 2008 and adjusted earnings to be in the $3.07-$3.09 per diluted share range."
Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information
Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) is the term used to refer to the standard framework of guidelines for financial accounting. GAAP includes the standards, conventions, and rules accountants follow in recording and summarizing transactions, and in the preparation of financial statements. In addition to reporting financial results in accordance with GAAP, LPS reports several non-GAAP measures, including pro forma adjusted net earnings, pro forma adjusted net earnings per share and pro forma adjusted free cash flow. LPS provides these measures because it believes that they are helpful to investors in comparing year-over-year performance in light of our 2008 spin-off from Fidelity National Information Services, Inc., and to better understand our financial performance, competitive position and future prospects. The adjusted results exclude acquisition related amortization costs and include pro forma debt related interest expenses. Non-GAAP measures should be considered in conjunction with the GAAP financial presentation and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for GAAP net earnings. A reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures to related GAAP measures is included in the attachments to this release.
Conference Call and Webcast
LPS will host a conference call to discuss these results on Friday, October 23, 2009, at 8:00 a.m. Eastern time. Interested parties are invited to listen to the live webcast by logging on to the Investor Relations section at www.lpsvcs.com. Supplemental materials will be available on the website.

Notes:
(2) Pro forma interest expense for each of the two quarters in the period
ended June 30, 2008 represents the interest expense associated with
the $1,610.7 million in debt incurred by us in connection with the
spin-off assuming the spin-off occurred on January 1, 2007. Our new
bank debt bears interest at a floating rate which we estimate would
have been 4.96% on the revolving credit agreement, Term Loan A and
Term Loan B based on the one month LIBOR rate on June 30, 2008
(2.46%) plus a spread of 2.5%. Our new senior notes bear interest at
a fixed rate of 8.125%. Amortization of capitalized debt issuance
costs in connection with the borrowings included in pro forma
interest expense total approximately $2.7 million for the six months
ended June 30, 2008. These projections also reflect principal
paydowns of approximately $36.3 million ($35 million of Term Loan A,
$1.3 million of Term Loan B) per quarter under the credit agreement
(other than in the first quarter after closing, in which only
$1.3 million is payable) and the paydown of the revolver of
$25.7 million during the first quarter of 2007.
(3) Purchase price amortization, net of tax represents the periodic
amortization of intangible assets acquired through business
acquisitions primarily relating to customer lists, trademarks and
non-compete agreements.
(4) Pro forma earnings per share and pro forma diluted weighted average
shares for the quarter ended June 30, 2008 are provided based on the
94,611 shares of Lender Processing Services, Inc. common stock issued
to FIS shareholders on the July 2, 2008 spin date along with dilutive
common stock equivalents calculated under the treasury stock method
using the $33 per share closing price of LPS on July 2, 2008 as the
average market price and the number of LPS options and awards issued
to our employees per the terms of the spin-off. Pro forma earnings
per share and pro forma diluted weighted average shares for all other
periods presented above are based on the pro forma diluted shares as
included in the Company's Form 10 filed on June 20, 2008.
