SS&C Technologies Announces Q2 2006 Results
WINDSOR, CT — August 14, 2006 — SS&C Technologies, Inc.(www.ssctech.com), a global provider of financial services software and outsourcing solutions, today announced record revenues for the quarter ended June 30, 2006. Reported revenue on a GAAP basis for the second quarter of 2006 was $50.7 million. Included in reported revenue for the second quarter is a $1.5 million reduction in revenue caused by purchase accounting adjustments to reflect November 23, 2005 deferred revenue at its estimated fair value. Excluding the purchase accounting adjustment, adjusted revenue (a non-GAAP financial measure defined in note 3 to the attached Consolidated Condensed Financial Information) for the second quarter of 2006 was $52.2 million, a 28% increase from the second quarter of 2005. Net profit, on a GAAP basis, for the second quarter of 2006, was $1.8 million.
Adjusted operating income (a non-GAAP financial measure defined in note 1 to the attached Consolidated Condensed Financial Information) was $18.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2006, compared to $12.6 million in the second quarter of the prior year. The adjusted operating income increase is 47%. GAAP operating income in the second quarter of 2006 was $11.3 million and includes amortization of $5.7 million and deferred revenue adjustment and other purchase accounting items of $1.4 million. GAAP operating income in the second quarter of 2005 was $10.7 million and includes amortization of $1.8 million.
Consolidated EBITDA (a non-GAAP financial measure defined in note 2 of the Consolidated Condensed Financial Information) for the second quarter of 2006 was $21.0 million, compared to $17.1 million in the second quarter of 2005.
Revenues/Operating Income
Bill Stone, SS&C’s Chairman and CEO, commenting on recent results said, “We are pleased with our second quarter results. Revenues reached a record high, with solid contributions from our recurring revenues. Recurring revenues, which includes both maintenance and outsourcing revenues, grew to $40.5 million, an increase of 28% over Q2 2005, and now represent 80% of total revenues. We continue to stay focused on our expenses and our operating margins; adjusted operating income was 36% of revenues in the second quarter compared with 31% in the second quarter of 2005, a 500 basis point improvement.”
Outsourcing Solutions
” Outsourcing continues to be a key strategy of our growth, and in Q2 outsourcing revenues reached a record high of $27.2 million, a 39% increase over Q2 2005,” said Stone. “Growth came in several areas, including FMC’s outsourcing business to asset managers, fund administration services we provide to hedge funds, and treasury operations, particularly Foreign Exchange trading and clearance provided by our TradeThru product.”


 

Balance Sheet and cash Flow
“We ended the quarter with $14.6 million cash on our balance sheet and have a total debt position of $486.6 million. We generated net cash from operating activities of $16.8 million and have used that cash to acquire a new business, pay down our debt and deleverage our business. In the first quarter we acquired Cogent Management, Inc. for $11.9 million, and we paid down $4.8 million in debt,” said Stone.

Notes to Consolidated Condensed Financial Information
(unaudited)
Note 1. Reconciliation of Operating Income to Adjusted Operating Income
Adjusted operating income represents operating income adjusted for amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets, merger costs and purchase accounting adjustments for deferred revenue and other expenses. Adjusted operating income is presented because we use this measure to evaluate performance of our business and believe it is a useful indicator of the underlying performance of the Company. Adjusted operating income is not a recognized term under generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). Adjusted operating income does not represent operating income, as that term is defined under GAAP, and should not be considered as an alternative to operating income as an indicator of our operating performance. Adjusted operating income as presented herein is not necessarily comparable to similarly titled measures. The following is a reconciliation between adjusted operating income and operating income, the GAAP measure we believe to be most directly comparable to adjusted operating income.

Note 2. Reconciliation of Net Income to EBITDA and Consolidated EBITDA
EBITDA represents net income before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization. Consolidated EBITDA, defined under our Credit Agreement entered into in November 2005, is used in calculating covenant compliance, and is EBITDA adjusted for certain items. Consolidated EBITDA is calculated by subtracting from or adding to EBITDA items of income or expense described below. EBITDA and Consolidated EBITDA are presented because we use these measures to evaluate performance of our business and believe them to be useful indicators of an entity’s debt capacity and its ability to service debt. EBITDA and Consolidated EBITDA are not recognized terms under GAAP and should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to operating income, net income, or cash flows from operating activities. EBITDA and Consolidated EBITDA do not represent net income, as that term is defined under GAAP, and should not be considered as an alternative to net income as an indicator of our operating performance. The following is a reconciliation between EBITDA and Consolidated EBITDA to net income.

Note 3. Reconciliation of Revenue to Adjusted Revenue
Adjusted revenue represents revenue adjusted for one-time purchase accounting adjustments to fair value deferred revenue as a result of the November 2005 merger. Adjusted revenue is presented because we use this measure to evaluate performance of our business against prior periods and believe it is a useful indicator of the underlying performance of the Company. Adjusted revenue is not a recognized term under generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). Adjusted revenue does not represent revenue, as that term is defined under GAAP, and should not be considered as an alternative to revenue as an indicator of our operating performance. Adjusted revenue as presented herein is not necessarily comparable to similarly titled measures.
