IHS Inc. (NYSE: IHS), the leading global source of information and analysis, today reported results for the fourth quarter and full year ended November 30, 2011. Revenue for the fourth quarter of 2011 totaled $371 million, a 27 percent increase over fourth quarter 2010 revenue of $293 million. Net income for the fourth quarter of 2011 was $22.7 million, or $0.34 per diluted share, compared to fourth quarter 2010 net income of $36.5 million, or $0.56 per diluted share. The quarter-over-quarter decrease was due to discrete pension items (discussed below), without which net income would have increased to $41.5 million, or $0.63 per diluted share. Revenue for fiscal year 2011 totaled $1.326 billion, up 25 percent over the prior year total of $1.058 billion. Fiscal year 2011 net income was $135.4 million, or $2.06 per diluted share, compared to fiscal year 2010 net income of $137.7 million, or $2.13 per diluted share. The year-over-year decrease was also due to the discrete pension items, without which net income would have increased to $154.2 million, or $2.35 per diluted share.

Adjusted EBITDA (Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization) totaled $119 million for the fourth quarter of 2011, up 33 percent from $90 million in the fourth quarter of 2010. Adjusted earnings per diluted share were $0.99 for the fourth quarter of 2011, an increase of 24 percent over the prior-year period. Adjusted EBITDA for fiscal year 2011 totaled $401 million, up 26 percent from $319 million in 2010. Adjusted earnings per diluted share were $3.44 for fiscal 2011, an increase of 19 percent over the prior-year period. Adjusted EBITDA and adjusted earnings per share (EPS) are non-GAAP (Generally Accepted Accounting Principles) financial measures used by management to measure operating performance. Please see the end of this release for more information about these non-GAAP measures.

"Our 2011 results were a record in all respects, and especially notable in light of the uncertain macroeconomic environment," said Jerre Stead, IHS chairman and chief executive officer. "2011 was a historic year for IHS both in terms of the level of investment we made in our infrastructure to create scalable platforms as well as the amount of capital deployed for strategic acquisitions, both of which will enable profitable growth for years to come."

Balance Sheet

IHS ended fourth quarter 2011 with $235 million of cash and cash equivalents and $803 million of debt.

Pension Plan Strategy Implemented

As part of a comprehensive review of the company's defined benefit pension plans, IHS recently completed steps to proactively decrease volatility and better match pension assets with obligations going forward. These steps resulted in an annuitization settlement of retiree pension obligations, a change to the IHS pension plan investment strategies, a change in accounting for pension expense and accelerated funding of plan contributions. A detailed presentation providing additional information about the steps taken and their impacts has been included on the company's website (investor.ihs.com) and furnished to the SEC.

"We have been very proactive in our actions, and we believe our strategy encompasses a series of prudent business decisions with respect to these plans that position us well for the future," said Richard Walker, IHS executive vice president and chief financial officer. "Many plan sponsors have employed similar steps to better manage their pension programs."

Outlook (forward-looking statement)

For the year ending November 30, 2012, IHS reaffirms and expects:

  • All-in revenue in a range of $1.50 to $1.55 billion, including an organic growth rate expected to be between 7-10 percent;
  • All-in adjusted EBITDA in a range of $480 to $495 million; and
  • Adjusted EPS between $3.84 and $4.01.

Additionally, for the year ending November 30, 2012, IHS also expects:

  • Depreciation and amortization expense to be approximately $112 million;
  • Net interest expense of approximately $17 million;
  • Stock-based compensation expense to be approximately $115-120 million;
  • An adjusted tax rate of approximately 27-28 percent; and
  • Fully diluted shares to be approximately 67 million.

The above outlook assumes constant currencies and no further acquisitions, pension mark-to-market adjustments or unanticipated events.

See discussion of adjusted EBITDA and non-GAAP financial measures at the end of this release.

As previously announced, IHS will hold a conference call to discuss fourth quarter and full year 2011 results on January 6, 2012, at 8:00 a.m. EST. The conference call will be simultaneously webcast on the company's website: www.ihs.com.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Non-GAAP results are presented only as a supplement to the financial statements based on U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). The non-GAAP financial information is provided to enhance the reader's understanding of our financial performance, but no non-GAAP measure should be considered in isolation or as a substitute for financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. Reconciliations of the most directly comparable GAAP measures to non-GAAP measures, such as adjusted EBITDA and adjusted earnings per diluted share, are provided within the schedules attached to this release.

EBITDA is defined as net income plus or minus net interest plus income taxes, depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA further excludes (i) non-cash items (e.g., stock-based compensation expense and non-cash pension and post-retirement expense) and (ii) items that management does not consider to be useful in assessing our operating performance (e.g., acquisition-related costs, restructuring charges, income or loss from discontinued operations, and gain or loss on sale of assets). Adjusted earnings per diluted share exclude similar items as adjusted EBITDA. None of these non-GAAP financial measures are recognized terms under GAAP and do not purport to be an alternative to net income as an indicator of operating performance or any other GAAP measure.

Management uses these non-GAAP measures in its operational and financial decision-making, believing that it is useful to eliminate certain items in order to focus on what it deems to be a more reliable indicator of ongoing operating performance and our ability to generate cash flow from operations. As a result, internal management reports used during monthly operating reviews feature the adjusted EBITDA and adjusted earnings per diluted share metrics. Management also believes that investors may find non-GAAP financial measures useful for the same reasons, although investors are cautioned that non-GAAP financial measures are not a substitute for GAAP disclosures. EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, and adjusted earnings per diluted share are also used by many of our investors, research analysts, investment bankers, and lenders to assess our operating performance. For example, a measure similar to adjusted EBITDA is required by the lenders under our term loan and revolving credit agreement.

Because not all companies use identical calculations, our presentation of non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to other similarly-titled measures of other companies. However, these measures can still be useful in evaluating our performance against our peer companies because management believes the measures provide users with valuable insight into key components of GAAP financial disclosures. For example, a company with greater GAAP net income may not be as appealing to investors if its net income is more heavily comprised of gains on asset sales. Likewise, eliminating the effects of interest income and expense moderates the impact of a company's capital structure on its performance.

All of the items included in the reconciliation from net income to adjusted EBITDA are either (i) non-cash items (e.g., depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation, non-cash pension and post-retirement expense) or (ii) items that we do not consider to be useful in assessing our operating performance (e.g., income taxes, acquisition-related costs, restructuring charges, income or loss from discontinued operations, and gain or loss on sale of assets). In the case of the non-cash items, management believes that investors can better assess our operating performance if the measures are presented without such items because, unlike cash expenses, these adjustments do not affect our ability to generate free cash flow or invest in our business. For example, by eliminating depreciation and amortization from EBITDA, users can compare operating performance without regard to different accounting determinations such as useful life. In the case of the other items, management believes that investors can better assess operating performance if the measures are presented without these items because their financial impact does not reflect ongoing operating performance.
