Rhea-AI Summary

TransUnion reported a 30% total revenue growth and 9% organic growth in Q2 2022. Total revenue reached $948 million, with net income at $96 million, down from $128 million in Q2 2021. The company is expecting a 9-10% organic revenue growth for 2022, despite headwinds in foreign exchange and mortgage segments. The acquisition of Verisk Financial Services contributed to significant growth, particularly in the U.S. Markets, where revenue increased by 44%. However, challenges in the mortgage sector are anticipated, with expected declines of 30-35% in revenue.

CHICAGO, July 26, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- TransUnion (NYSE: TRU) (the “Company”) today announced financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2022.

Second Quarter 2022 Results

Revenue:

  • Total revenue for the quarter was $948 million an increase of 30 percent (32 percent on a constant currency basis and 5 percent on an organic constant currency basis), compared with the second quarter of 2021.

Earnings:

  • Net income attributable to TransUnion was $96 million for the quarter, compared with $128 million for the second quarter of 2021. Diluted earnings per share was $0.49, compared with $0.66 in the second quarter of 2021. Net income attributable to TransUnion margin was 10.1%, compared with 17.5% in the second quarter of 2021.
  • Adjusted Net Income was $190 million for the quarter, compared with $170 million for the second quarter of 2021. Adjusted Diluted Earnings per Share for the quarter was $0.98, compared with $0.88 in the second quarter of 2021.
  • Adjusted EBITDA was $350 million for the quarter, an increase of 19 percent (20 percent on a constant currency basis, 4 percent on an organic constant currency basis) compared with the second quarter of 2021. Adjusted EBITDA margin was 36.9 percent, compared with 40.6 percent in the second quarter of 2021.

“TransUnion delivered another solid quarter,” said Chris Cartwright, President and CEO. “We continued to drive market-leading organic growth in key verticals such as Financial Services, Insurance, Public Sector and Media; and robust results internationally led by India, Asia Pacific, Latin America and Africa.”

“We continue to expect a strong year with 9 to 10 percent organic growth excluding mortgage despite adjusting our 2022 outlook to account for greater foreign exchange and mortgage headwinds as well as modestly lower growth in certain parts of our business. In U.S. mortgage, we anticipate 30 to 35 percent revenue declines due to 40 to 45 percent inquiry declines. We expect to deliver strong earnings growth.”

“Additionally, we achieved key milestones in integrating our recent strategic acquisitions. We are increasingly enthusiastic about the power of our combined capabilities and go-to-market strategy to deliver significant value to customers. Our portfolio transformation over the last decade positions us better than ever to deliver relative outperformance in all environments.”

Second Quarter 2022 Segment Results

U.S. Markets:

On April 8, 2022, we completed our acquisition of Verisk Financial Services (“VF”), the financial services business unit of Verisk Analytics, Inc., including its leading core businesses Argus Information and Advisory Services, Inc. and Commerce Signals, Inc. (collectively “Argus”). Our second quarter and year-to-date 2022 results include Argus within the Financial Services vertical of our U.S. Markets segment. The non-core businesses from the acquisition were classified as held for sale and are presented as discontinued operations, net of tax, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022.

U.S. Markets revenue was $633 million, an increase of 44 percent (5 percent on an organic basis) compared with the second quarter of 2021.

  • Financial Services revenue, which includes Argus, was $301 million, an increase of 11 percent (3 percent on an organic basis) compared with the second quarter of 2021.
  • Emerging Verticals revenue, which includes Neustar, Inc. (“Neustar”), Insurance and all other verticals, was $332 million, an increase of 98 percent (8 percent on an organic basis) compared with the second quarter of 2021.

Adjusted EBITDA was $234 million, an increase of 25 percent (3 percent on an organic basis) compared with the second quarter of 2021.

International:

International revenue was $187 million, an increase of 8 percent (15 percent on a constant currency basis) compared with the second quarter of 2021.

  • Canada revenue was $33 million, a decrease of 3 percent (an increase of 1 percent on a constant currency basis) compared with the second quarter of 2021.
  • Latin America revenue was $29 million, an increase of 13 percent (14 percent on a constant currency basis) compared with the second quarter of 2021.

  • Asia Pacific revenue was $19 million, an increase of 19 percent (22 percent on a constant currency basis) compared with the second quarter of 2021.

Adjusted EBITDA was $81 million, an increase of 12 percent (19 percent on a constant currency basis) compared with the second quarter of 2021.

Consumer Interactive:

Consumer Interactive revenue, which includes Sontiq, Inc. (“Sontiq”), was $147 million, an increase of 8 percent (a decrease of 9 percent on an organic basis) compared with the second quarter of 2021.

Adjusted EBITDA was $68 million, an increase of 5 percent (a decrease of 6 percent on an organic basis) compared with the second quarter of 2021.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash and cash equivalents were $522 million at June 30, 2022 and $1,842 million at December 31, 2021. In addition, we had $300 million of undrawn capacity on our Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility at June 30, 2022. In January 2022, we prepaid $400 million of debt. In April 2022, we completed the acquisition of VF for $508 million, and also paid $355 million of taxes due on the gain of the divestiture of our Healthcare business, both funded with cash on hand.

For the six months ended June 30, 2022, cash used in operating activities of continuing operations was $115 million compared with cash provided by operating activities of continuing operations of $348 million in 2021. The increase in cash used in operating activities of continuing operations for the six month period was due primarily to payments made for taxes due on the gain on the divestiture of our Healthcare business made in the second quarter, an increase in cash payments for accrued incentive and other compensation made in the first quarter, and an increase in interest expense payments for the six month period. Cash used in investing activities of continuing operations was $676 million compared with $142 million in 2021. The increase in cash used in investing activities of continuing operations was due primarily to payments made for the VF acquisition and an increase in capital expenditures. Capital expenditures were $121 million compared with $93 million in 2021. Cash used in financing activities of continuing operations was $522 million compared with $203 million in 2021. The increase in cash used in financing activities of continuing operations was due primarily to an increase in debt prepayments.

Third Quarter and Full Year 2022 Outlook

Our guidance is based on a number of assumptions that are subject to change, many of which are outside of the control of the Company, including general macroeconomic conditions and the potential impact of the global COVID-19 pandemic. There are numerous evolving factors that we may not be able to accurately predict. There can be no assurance that the Company will achieve the results expressed by this guidance.

(1)Additional revenue growth assumptions:
  1. The impact of changing foreign currency exchange rates is expected to have approximately 2 points of headwind for Q3 2022 and 1 point of headwind for FY 2022.
  2. The impact of recent acquisitions is expected to have approximately 27 points of benefit for Q3 2022 and 24 points of benefit for FY 2022.
  3. The impact of mortgage is expected to be approximately 5 points of headwind for Q3 2022 and 5 points for FY 2022. These impacts are calculated by removing the U.S. mortgage revenue from both the current year and prior year periods.
(2)Constant currency growth rates assume foreign currency exchange rates are consistent between years. This allows financial results to be evaluated without the impact of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates.
  
(3)Organic constant currency growth rates are constant currency growth excluding inorganic growth. Inorganic growth represents growth attributable to the first twelve months of activity for recent business acquisitions.
  
(4)Additional Adjusted EBITDA assumptions:
  1. The impact of changing foreign currency exchange rates is expected to have approximately 2 points of headwind for Q3 2022 and 1 point of headwind for FY 2022.

While not all of the information that the Company posts to the TransUnion Investor Relations website is of a material nature, some information could be deemed to be material.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This earnings release presents constant currency growth rates assuming foreign currency exchange rates are consistent between years. This allows financial results to be evaluated without the impact of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. This earnings release also presents organic constant currency growth rates, which assumes consistent foreign currency exchange rates between years and also eliminates the impact of our recent acquisitions. This allows financial results to be evaluated without the impact of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates and the impacts of recent acquisitions.

This earnings release also presents Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Adjusted Effective Tax Rate, Adjusted Net Income (Loss) and Adjusted Diluted Earnings per Share for all periods presented. These are important financial measures for the Company but are not financial measures as defined by GAAP. We present Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Net Income as supplemental measures of our operating performance because these measures eliminate the impact of certain items that we do not consider indicative of our cash operations and ongoing operating performance. Adjusted EBITDA is also a measure frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in their evaluation of the operating performance of companies similar to ours. Our board of directors and executive management team use Adjusted EBITDA as compensation measures. Under the credit agreement governing our Senior Secured Credit Facility, our ability to engage in activities such as incurring additional indebtedness, making investments and paying dividends is tied to a ratio based on Adjusted EBITDA. These financial measures should be reviewed in conjunction with the relevant GAAP financial measures and are not presented as alternative measures of GAAP. Other companies in our industry may define or calculate these measures differently than we do, limiting their usefulness as comparative measures. Because of these limitations, these non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation or as substitutes for performance measures calculated in accordance with GAAP, including operating income, operating margin, effective tax rate, net income (loss) attributable to the Company, earnings per share or cash provided by operating activities. Reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are presented in the attached Schedules.

We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) attributable to TransUnion, less income from discontinued operations, net of tax, plus net interest expense, plus (less) provision (benefit) for income taxes, plus depreciation and amortization, plus stock-based compensation, plus mergers, acquisitions, divestitures and business optimization-related expenses, plus certain accelerated technology investment expenses to migrate to the cloud, plus (less) certain other expenses (income). We define Adjusted Net Income as net income (loss) attributable to TransUnion, less income from discontinued operations, net of tax, plus stock-based compensation, plus mergers, acquisitions, divestitures and business optimization-related expenses, plus certain accelerated technology investment expenses, plus (less) certain other expenses (income), plus amortization of certain intangible assets, plus or minus the related and other changes in provision for income taxes. We define Adjusted Diluted Earnings per Share as Adjusted Net Income divided by the weighted-average diluted shares outstanding. The above definitions apply to our calculations for the periods shown on Schedules 1 through 6.
