Form 10-K/A Amendment No. 1

Explanatory Note

This Amendment No. 1 to the annual report of TransUnion Corp. (the “Company”) on Form 10-K/A amends our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012 (the “Original 10-K”), which was originally filed on February 25, 2013. The Company is filing this amendment to insert a conformed signature of our independent auditors on their Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm with respect to the audited financial statements of the Company included in the Original 10-K, as required by Rule 2-02(a)(2) of Regulation S-X, which was inadvertantly omitted from the Original 10-K.

The Original 10-K was filed on a combined basis with TransUnion Holding Company, Inc. because we operate TransUnion Holding Company, Inc. and the Company as one business with identical management teams. TransUnion Holding Company, Inc. is also filing an Amendment No. 2 to the Original 10-K to (1) insert the date of inception with respect to TransUnion Holding Company, Inc. on its independent auditors Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm, and to insert a conformed signature of our independent auditors on their Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm with respect to the audited financial statements of TransUnion Holding Company, Inc. included in the Original 10-K, as required by Rule 2-02(a)(2) of Regulation S-X, and (2) amend Part IV, Item 15 of the Original 10-K and replace the separate audited financial statements for Trans Union De Mexico, S.A. and Credit Information Bureau (Limited) India that were previously filed with separate audited financial statements for Trans Union De Mexico, S.A. for the year ended December 31, 2012, and for Credit Information Bureau (India) Limited for the year ended March 31, 2013, in each case prepared in accordance with Rule 3-09 of Regulation S-X.

This Amendment No. 1 does not reflect subsequent events occurring after the original filing date of the Original 10-K or modify or update in any way disclosures made in the Original 10-K except as noted above. This Amendment No. 1 should be read in conjunction with the Original 10-K and with other Company filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission subsequent to the filing of the Original 10-K.

ITEM 8. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY DATA

This Annual Report on Form 10-K is a combined report being filed separately by TransUnion Holding Company, Inc. (“TransUnion Holding”) and TransUnion Corp., a direct 100% owned subsidiary of TransUnion Holding. Unless the context indicates otherwise, any reference in this report to “TransUnion,” the “Company,” “we,” “us,” and “our” refers to TransUnion Holding with its direct and indirect subsidiaries, including TransUnion Corp., or to TransUnion Corp. and its subsidiaries for periods prior to the formation of TransUnion Holding. Each registrant included herein is filing on its own behalf all of the information contained in this annual report that pertains to such registrant. When appropriate, TransUnion Holding and TransUnion Corp. are named explicitly for their specific related disclosures. Each registrant included herein is not filing any information that does not relate to such registrant, and therefore makes no representation as to any such information.

Where the information provided is substantially the same for each company, such information has been combined in this Annual Report on Form 10-K. Where information is not substantially the same for each company, we have provided separate information. In addition, separate financial statements for each company are included in Part II, Item 8, “Financial Statements and Supplementary Information.”

We operate TransUnion Holding and TransUnion Corp. as one business, with one management team. Management believes combining the Annual Reports on Form 10-K of TransUnion Holding and TransUnion Corp. provides the following benefits:

•

Enhances investors’ understanding of TransUnion Holding and TransUnion Corp. by enabling investors to view the business as a whole, the same manner as management views and operates the business;

•

Provides a more readable presentation of required disclosures with less duplication, since a substantial portion of the disclosures apply to both TransUnion Holding and TransUnion Corp.

•

Creates time and cost efficiencies through the preparation of one combined report instead of two separate reports.

TransUnion Holding acquired 100% of the outstanding stock of TransUnion Corp. on April 30, 2012. Substantially all of TransUnion Corp.’s net assets are owned by TransUnion Holding and substantially all of TransUnion Holding’s operations are conducted by TransUnion Corp. In addition, TransUnion Holding has issued $1 billion of senior unsecured PIK toggle notes, incurs interest expense on the notes, incurred deferred financing fees related to the notes, and incurred $15.2 million of acquisition-related costs, including investment banker fees, legal fees, due diligence and other external costs recorded in other income and expense.

Management’s Report on Financial Statements and Assessment of Internal Control over Financial

Reporting

Financial Statements

Management of TransUnion Holding Company, Inc. is responsible for the preparation of the financial information included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K. The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles and include amounts that are based on the best estimates and judgments of management.

Assessment of Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. TransUnion Holding Company, Inc.’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that:

•

pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of TransUnion Holding Company, Inc.;

•

provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles;

•

provide reasonable assurance that receipts and expenditures of TransUnion Holding Company, Inc. are being made only in accordance with the authorizations of management and directors of TransUnion Holding Company, Inc.; and

•

provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of assets that could have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations in any control, no matter how well designed, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Accordingly, even effective internal control over financial reporting can only provide reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation. Projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Management assessed the effectiveness of TransUnion Holding Company, Inc.’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2012. Management based this assessment on the criteria for effective internal control over financial reporting described in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Management’s assessment included an evaluation of the design of TransUnion Holding Company, Inc.’s internal control over financial reporting and testing of the operational effectiveness of its internal control over financial reporting. Management reviewed the results of its assessment with the Audit Committee of TransUnion Holding Company, Inc.’s Board of Directors.

Based on this assessment, management determined that, as of December 31, 2012, TransUnion Holding Company, Inc.’s internal control over financial reporting was effective.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

The Board of Directors and Shareholders

TransUnion Holding Company, Inc.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of TransUnion Holding Company, Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2012 and the related consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for the period from the date of inception (February 15, 2012) through December 31, 2012. Our audit also included the financial statement schedules listed in the Index at Item 15 to the consolidated financial statements. These financial statements and schedules are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. We were not engaged to perform an audit of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of TransUnion Holding Company, Inc. and subsidiaries at December 31, 2012, and the consolidated results of their operations and their cash flows from the date of inception (February 15, 2012) through December 31, 2012, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Also, in our opinion, the related financial statement schedules, when considered in relation to the basic consolidated financial statements taken as a whole, present fairly in all material respects the information set forth therein.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

The Board of Directors and Shareholders

TransUnion Corp.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of TransUnion Corp. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2012 and the related consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for the period from May 1, 2012 through December 31, 2012 (Successor) and statements of income, comprehensive income, stockholders’ equity and cash flows for the period from January 1, 2012 through April 30, 2012 (Predecessor). We also have audited the consolidated balance sheet of TransUnion Corp. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2011 and the related consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, stockholder’s equity, and cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010. Our audit also included the financial statement schedule listed in the Index at Item 15 to the consolidated financial statements. These financial statements and schedule are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. We were not engaged to perform an audit of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of TransUnion Corp. and subsidiaries at December 31, 2012, and the consolidated results of their operations and their cash flows for the period from May 1, 2012 through December 31, 2012 (Successor) and from January 1, 2012 through April 30, 2012 (Predecessor) and the consolidated financial position of TransUnion Corp. and subsidiaries at December 31, 2011 and the consolidated results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2011 (Predecessor), in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

TRANSUNION HOLDING COMPANY, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

TRANSUNION CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES

Combined Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

Years Ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010

1. Significant Accounting and Reporting Policies

Description of Business

TransUnion develops, maintains and enhances a number of secured proprietary information databases to support its operations. These databases contain payment history, accounts receivable information, and other information such as bankruptcies, liens and judgments for consumers and businesses. We maintain reference databases of current consumer names, addresses and telephone numbers which are used for identity verification and fraud management solutions. We obtain this information from a variety of sources, including credit-granting institutions and public records. We build and maintain these databases using our proprietary information management systems, and make the data available to our customers through a variety of services. These services are offered to customers in a number of industries including financial services, insurance, collections and healthcare. We have operations in the United States, Africa, Canada and other international locations.

Basis of Presentation

Substantially all of TransUnion Corp.’s net assets are owned by TransUnion Holding Company, Inc. (“TransUnion Holding”) and substantially all of TransUnion Holding’s operations are conducted by TransUnion Corp. All of the significant accounting and reporting policies pertain to both TransUnion Holding and TransUnion Corp.

This Annual Report on Form 10-K is a combined report being filed separately by TransUnion Holding and TransUnion Corp., a direct 100% owned subsidiary of TransUnion Holding. Unless the context indicates otherwise, any reference in this report to the “Company,” “we,” “us,” and “our” refers to TransUnion Holding with its direct and indirect subsidiaries, including TransUnion Corp., or to TransUnion Corp. and its subsidiaries for periods prior to the forming of TransUnion Holding. Each registrant included herein is filing on its own behalf all of the information contained in this quarterly report that pertains to such registrant. When appropriate, TransUnion Holding and TransUnion Corp. are named explicitly for their specific related disclosures. Each registrant included herein is not filing any information that does not relate to such registrant, and therefore makes no representation as to any such information.

2012 Change in Control Transaction

TransUnion Holding was formed by affiliates of Advent International Corporation (“Advent”) and Goldman Sachs & Co. (“GSC”) on February 15, 2012 as a vehicle to acquire 100% of the outstanding common stock of TransUnion Corp. On April 30, 2012, pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger, TransUnion Holding acquired TransUnion Corp. As a result, TransUnion Corp. became a wholly-owned subsidiary of TransUnion Holding. To partially fund the acquisition, TransUnion Holding issued $600.0 million aggregate principal amount of 9.625%/10.375% senior PIK toggle notes due 2018 (9.625% notes). We also increased the revolving commitment amount under our senior secured revolving credit facility by $10.0 million, from $200.0 million to $210.0 million, and extended the maturity date of $155.0 million of the revolving commitment to February 10, 2017. We refer to these transactions collectively as the 2012 Change in Control Transaction.

The 2012 Change in Control Transaction was accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 805, Business Combinations. The guidance prescribes that the basis of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed be recorded at fair value on the acquirer’s books to reflect the purchase price. Under the guidance provided by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) Staff Accounting Bulletin Topic 5J, “New Basis of Accounting Required in Certain Circumstances,” the fair value adjustments of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed have also been pushed-down to TransUnion Corp.’s books.

TransUnion Corp. continues to operate as the same legal entity subsequent to the 2012 Change in Control Transaction. On TransUnion Corp.’s financial statements, periods prior to May 1, 2012, reflect the financial position, results of operations, and changes in financial position of TransUnion Corp. prior to the 2012 Change in Control Transaction (referred to herein as the “Predecessor”) and periods after April 30, 2012, reflect the financial position, results of operations, and changes in financial position of TransUnion Corp. after the 2012 Change in Control Transaction (referred to herein as the “Successor”). In these combined Notes, amounts as of December 31, 2011, and for the periods ended April 30, 2012, and earlier, reflect the activity of the Predecessor. Periods after the 2012 Change in Control Transaction are not comparable to prior periods primarily due to the significant additional stock-based compensation and transactions costs incurred by TransUnion Corp. Predecessor and the additional amortization of intangibles in subsequent periods resulting from the fair value adjustments of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed and additional interest expense on the 9.625% notes incurred by TransUnion Corp. Successor.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements of TransUnion Holding Company and Subsidiaries and of TransUnion Corp. and Subsidiaries have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). Our consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of the periods presented. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.

Subsequent Events

Events and transactions occurring through the date of issuance of the financial statements included in this annual report on Form 10-K have been evaluated by management, and when appropriate, recognized or disclosed in the financial statements.

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements of TransUnion Holding include the accounts of TransUnion Holding and its 100% owned subsidiary, TransUnion Corp. The consolidated financial statements of TransUnion Corp. include the accounts of TransUnion Corp. and all of its majority-owned or controlled subsidiaries. Investments in unconsolidated entities in which the Company has at least a 20% ownership interest, or where it is able to exercise significant influence, are accounted for using the equity method. Nonmarketable investments in unconsolidated entities in which the Company has less than a 20% ownership interest, or where it is not able to exercise significant influence, are accounted for using the cost method and periodically reviewed for impairment.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements and related disclosures in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the amounts reported. We believe that the estimates used in preparation of the accompanying consolidated financial statements are reasonable, based upon information available to management at this time. These estimates and judgments affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the balance sheet date, as well as the amounts of revenue and expense during the reporting period. Estimates are inherently uncertain and actual results could differ materially from the estimated amounts.

Reclassifications

We have reclassified the December 31, 2011, carrying value of internal use software, $93.4 million net of accumulated amortization, from property, plant and equipment to other intangibles to conform to the current period presentation.

Segments

We manage our business and report our financial results in three operating segments: U.S. Information Services (“USIS”); International; and Interactive. We also report expenses for Corporate, which provides support services to each operating segment. Details of our segment results are discussed in Note 19, “Operating Segments.”

Revenue Recognition and Deferred Revenue

Revenue is recognized when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred or services have been rendered, the pricing is fixed or determinable and the collectability is reasonably assured. For multiple element arrangements, we separate deliverables into units of accounting and recognize revenue for each unit of accounting based on evidence of each unit’s relative selling price to the total arrangement consideration, assuming all other revenue recognition criteria have been met.

A significant portion of our revenue is derived from providing information services to our customers. This revenue is recognized when services are provided, assuming all criteria for revenue recognition are met. A smaller portion of our revenue relates to subscription-based contracts where a customer pays a predetermined fee for a predetermined, or unlimited, number of transactions or services during the subscription period. Revenue related to subscription-based contracts having a preset number of transactions is recognized as the services are provided, using an effective transaction rate as the actual transactions are completed. Any remaining revenue related to unfulfilled units is not recognized until the end of the related contract’s subscription period. Revenue related to subscription-based contracts having an unlimited volume is recognized straight line over the contract term. We also earn revenue for the development of decisioning or statistical models, which is recognized upon installation and acceptance of the model by the customer.

Deferred revenue generally consists of amounts billed in excess of revenue recognized for the sale of data services, subscriptions and set up fees. Deferred revenue is included in other current liabilities.

Costs of Services

Costs of services include data acquisition and royalty fees, personnel costs related to our databases and software applications, consumer and call center support costs, hardware and software maintenance costs, telecommunication expenses and occupancy costs associated with the facilities where these functions are performed. Cost of services included research and development costs of TransUnion Corp. Successor of $7.6 million for the eight months ended December 31, 2012. Cost of services included research and development costs for TransUnion Corp. Predecessor of $3.7 million, $7.8 million and $6.9 million for the four months ended April 30, 2012, and the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Selling, general and administrative expenses include personnel-related costs for sales, administrative and management employees, costs for professional and consulting services, advertising and occupancy and facilities expense of these functions. Advertising costs are expensed as incurred. Advertising costs of TransUnion Corp. Successor were $19.2 million for the eight months ended December 31, 2012. Advertising costs of TransUnion Corp. Predecessor were $15.5 million, $32.8 million and $31.4 million for the four months ended April 30, 2012, and the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

Stock-Based Compensation

Compensation expense for all stock-based compensation awards is determined using the grant date fair value and includes an estimate for expected forfeitures. Expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period of the award, which is generally equal to the vesting period. The details of our stock-based compensation program are discussed in Note 15, “Stock-Based Compensation.”

Income Taxes

Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the estimated future tax effects of temporary differences between the financial statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities, as measured by current enacted tax rates. The effect of a tax rate change on deferred tax assets and liabilities is recognized in operations in the period that includes the enactment date of the change. We periodically assess the recoverability of our deferred tax assets, and a valuation allowance is recorded against deferred tax assets if it is more likely than not that some portion of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. See Note 14, “Income Taxes,” for additional information.

Foreign Currency Translation

The functional currency for each of our foreign subsidiaries is generally that subsidiary’s local currency. We translate the assets and liabilities of foreign subsidiaries at the year-end exchange rate, and translate revenues and expenses at the monthly average rates during the year. We record the resulting translation adjustment as a component of other comprehensive income in stockholders’ equity.

Transaction gains and losses that arise from exchange rate fluctuations on transactions denominated in a currency other than the functional currency are included in the results of operations as incurred. Exchange rate gains of TransUnion Corp. Successor for the eight months ended December 31, 2012, were less than $0.1 million. Exchange rate gains of TransUnion Corp. Predecessor for the fourth months ended April 30, 2012, were $0.2 million. Exchange rate losses of TransUnion Corp. Predecessor for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, were $2.8 million and $0.2 million, respectively.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

We consider investments in highly liquid debt instruments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

Trade Accounts Receivable

Trade accounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced amount and do not bear interest. The allowance for doubtful accounts is based on our historical write-off experience, analysis of the aging of outstanding receivables, customer payment patterns and the establishment of specific reserves for customers in adverse financial condition or for existing contractual disputes. Adjustments to the allowance are recorded as a bad debt expense in selling, general and administrative expenses. Trade receivables are written off against the allowance when they are determined to be no longer collectible. We reassess the adequacy of the allowance for doubtful accounts each reporting period.

Long-Lived Assets

Property, Plant, Equipment and Intangibles

Property, plant and equipment is stated at cost for periods prior to the 2012 Change in Control Transaction. On the date of the transaction, all property, plant and equipment was adjusted to fair value. Property, plant and equipment is depreciated primarily using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Buildings and building improvements are generally depreciated over twenty years. Computer equipment and

purchased software are depreciated over three to seven years. Leasehold improvements are depreciated over the shorter of the estimated useful life of the asset or the lease term. Other assets are depreciated over five to seven years. Intangibles, other than indefinite-lived intangibles, are amortized using the straight-line method over their economic life, generally three to forty years. Assets to be disposed of are separately presented in the consolidated balance sheet and reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value, less costs to sell, and are no longer depreciated. See Note 2, “Change in Control Transactions,” Note 5, “Property, Plant and Equipment,” and Note 7, “Purchased Intangible Assets,” for additional information about these assets.

Internal Use Software

We monitor the activities of each of our internal use software and system development projects and analyze the associated costs, making an appropriate distinction between costs to be expensed and costs to be capitalized. Costs incurred during the preliminary project stage are expensed as incurred. Many of the costs incurred during the application development stage are capitalized, including costs of software design and configuration, development of interfaces, coding, testing and installation of the software. Once the software is ready for its intended use, it is amortized on a straight-line basis over its useful life, generally three to seven years.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

We review long-lived assets that are subject to amortization for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to the estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its estimated future cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized equal to the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset. During 2011, we recorded a $2.0 million impairment of software due to a regulatory change that requires a software platform change in our USIS segment. No significant impairment charges were recorded during 2012 or 2010.

Marketable Securities

We classify our investments in debt and equity securities in accordance with our intent and ability to hold the investments. Held-to-maturity securities are carried at amortized cost, which approximates fair value, and are classified as either short-term or long-term investments based on the contractual maturity date. Earnings from these securities are reported as a component of interest income. Available-for-sale securities are carried at fair market value, with the unrealized gains and losses, net of tax, included in accumulated other comprehensive income. Trading securities are carried at fair market value, with unrealized gains and losses included in income. We follow the fair value guidance issued by the FASB to measure the fair value of our financial assets as further described below. Details of our marketable securities are included in Note 4, “Marketable Securities.”

We periodically review our marketable securities to determine if there is an other-than-temporary impairment on any security. If it is determined that an other-than-temporary decline in value exists, we write down the investment to its market value and record the related impairment loss in other income.

Goodwill and Other Indefinite-Lived Intangibles

Goodwill and other indefinite-lived intangible assets are allocated to various reporting units, which are an operating segment or one level below an operating segment. We test goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment on an annual basis, in the fourth quarter, or on an interim basis if an indicator of impairment is present. For goodwill, we compare the fair value of each reporting unit to its carrying amount to determine if there is potential goodwill impairment. If the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying value, an impairment loss is recorded to the extent that the fair value of the goodwill within the reporting unit is less than the carrying value of its goodwill. For other indefinite-lived intangibles, we compare the fair value of

the asset to its carrying value to determine if there is an impairment. If the fair value of the asset is less than its carrying value, an impairment loss is recorded. We use discounted cash flow techniques to determine the fair value of our reporting units and other indefinite-lived intangibles. See Note 6, “Goodwill,” and Note 7, “Purchased Intangible Assets,” for additional information about these assets.

Benefit Plans

We maintain a 401(k) defined contribution profit sharing plan for eligible employees. We provide a partial matching contribution and a discretionary contribution based on a fixed percentage of a participant’s eligible compensation. TransUnion Corp. Successor expense related to this plan was $6.9 million for the eight months ended December 31, 2012. TransUnion Corp. Predecessor expense related to this plan was $4.8 million, $10.1 million and $10.5 million for the four months ended April 30, 2012, and the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. We also maintain a nonqualified deferred compensation plan for certain key employees. The deferred compensation plan contains both employee deferred compensation and company contributions. These investments are held in the TransUnion Rabbi Trust, and are included in other marketable securities and other assets on the balance sheet. The assets held in the Rabbi Trust are for the benefit of the participants in the deferred compensation plan, but are available to our general creditors in the case of our insolvency. The liability for amounts due to these participants is included in other current liabilities and other liabilities on the balance sheet.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2011-05, Comprehensive Income—Presentation of Comprehensive Income. The objective of ASU 2011-05 is to improve the comparability, consistency, and transparency of financial reporting and to increase the prominence of items reported in other comprehensive income. This ASU requires companies to present items of net income, other comprehensive income and total comprehensive income in one continuous statement or two separate but consecutive statements. In December 2011, ASU 2011-05 was modified by the issuance of ASU No. 2011-12, Deferral of the Effective Date for Amendments to the Presentation of Reclassifications of Items out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income in Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-05. This update deferred certain paragraphs of ASU 2011-05 that would require reclassifications of items from other comprehensive income to net income by component of net income and by component of other comprehensive income on the face of the financial statements. The changes in these updates are required to be applied retrospectively and are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2011. TransUnion Holding adopted these standards upon inception and TransUnion Corp. adopted these standards on January 1, 2012, and now present comprehensive income in a separate statement following the statement of income.

In September 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-08, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Testing Goodwill for Impairment. The objective of ASU 2011-08 is to simplify how entities test goodwill for impairment. Under the new requirements, the Company will have the option to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. If the Company determines it is not more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, further quantitative testing is not required. The changes in this update are effective for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011. TransUnion Holding adopted this standard upon inception and TransUnion Corp. adopted this standard on January 1, 2012. The adoption of this standard did not have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.

There are no recent accounting pronouncements that have not yet been adopted.

2. Change in Control Transactions

2012 Change in Control Transaction

On April 30, 2012, pursuant to the Merger Agreement, TransUnion Corp. was acquired by affiliates of Advent and GSC (the “Sponsors”), for the aggregate purchase price of $1,592.7 million, plus the assumption of existing debt. As a result, TransUnion Corp. became a wholly-owned subsidiary of TransUnion Holding. In connection with the acquisition, all existing stockholders of TransUnion Corp. received cash consideration for their shares and all existing option holders received cash consideration based on the value of their options. To partially fund the acquisition, TransUnion Holding issued $600 million aggregate principal amount of the 9.625% notes. TransUnion Holding is owned 49.5% by affiliates of Advent, 49.5% by affiliates of GSC and 1% by members of management.

Purchase Price Allocation

The allocation of the purchase price to the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed is preliminary pending the push down of final adjustment to our international reporting units, which we expect to complete by March 31, 2013. The preliminary fair value of the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed as of April 30, 2012, consisted of the following:


(in millions)	Fair Value
Trade accounts receivable	$	162.4
Property and equipment		112.9
Identifiable intangible assets		1,986.4
Goodwill⁽¹⁾		1,801.5
All other assets		302.3

Total assets acquired	$	4,365.5
Existing debt (including fair value adjustment)		(1,710.8	)
All other liabilities		(948.7	)
Noncontrolling interests		(113.3	)

Net assets of acquired company	$	1,592.7

⁽¹⁾	For tax purposes, $128.8 million of goodwill is tax deductible.

The excess of the purchase price over the preliminary fair value of the net tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed was recorded as goodwill. The purchase price of TransUnion Corp. exceeded the preliminary fair value of the net assets acquired primarily due to growth opportunities and operational efficiencies.

Identifiable Intangible Assets

The preliminary fair values of the intangible assets acquired consisted of the following:


(in millions)	Fair Value		Estimated Useful Life
Database and credit files	$	765.0		15 years
Technology and software		364.6		7 years
Trade names and trademarks		546.1		40 years
Customer relationships		308.0		20 years
Other		2.7		5 years

Total identifiable intangible assets	$	1,986.4

The weighted-average useful life of identifiable intangible assets is approximately 21.2 years.

Acquisition Costs

The Company incurred $36.5 million of acquisition-related costs, including investment banker fees, legal fees, due diligence and other external costs recorded in other income and expense. Of this total, $15.2 million was incurred by TransUnion Holding, $0.4 million was incurred by TransUnion Corp. after the acquisition, and $20.9 million was incurred by TransUnion Corp. prior to the acquisition. TransUnion Corp. also incurred $2.7 million of loan fees for a bridge loan prior to the date of acquisition. None of the costs incurred by TransUnion Corp. prior to the acquisition are reflected in TransUnion Holding’s consolidated results of operations.

2010 Change in Control Transaction

On June 15, 2010, MDCPVI TU Holdings, LLC (“MDP Affiliate”), an entity beneficially owned by affiliates of Madison Dearborn Partners, LLC, acquired 51.0% of the outstanding common stock of TransUnion Corp., with the remaining common stock retained by existing stockholders, including 48.15% by Pritzker family business interests and 0.85% by certain members of senior management. The transaction included a merger of TransUnion Merger Corp. (“MergerCo”) with and into TransUnion Corp., with TransUnion Corp. continuing as the surviving corporation. In connection with the transaction, the Company incurred $1,626.7 million of debt, consisting of a seven-year $950.0 million senior secured term loan, $15.0 million of a five-year $200.0 million senior secured revolving line of credit, $645.0 million of senior notes (“11.625% notes), and a $16.7 million non-interest bearing loan from an entity owned by Pritzker family business interests. The proceeds of these financing transactions were used to finance a portion of the merger consideration and to repay $487.5 million of existing bank debt. See Note 13, “Debt,” for additional information regarding these transactions.

The 2010 Change in Control Transaction was accounted for as a recapitalization of TransUnion Corp. in accordance with ASC 805, Business Combinations, with the necessary adjustments reflected in the equity section and the retention of the historical book values of assets and liabilities on the balance sheet as of June 15, 2010.

All 2010 Change in Control Transaction fees were expensed as incurred and were included in other expense in accordance with ASC 805. Debt financing fees were allocated to the various loans, to be amortized to interest expense over the life of the corresponding loans. On February 10, 2011, the Company amended and restated its senior secured credit facility and wrote off the associated remaining unamortized deferred financing fees. See Note 13, “Debt,” for additional information regarding the refinancing. In connection with the 2012 Change in Control Transaction purchase accounting fair value adjustments, the deferred financing fees associated with the 11.625% notes were reduced to zero. All unvested restricted stock previously issued to employees under our then existing equity award program immediately vested upon the consummation of the 2010 Change in Control Transaction. As a result, the Company recognized $20.7 million of additional stock-based compensation, with a related income tax benefit of approximately $7.5 million.

These securities relate to a nonqualified deferred compensation plan held in trust for the benefit of plan participants. There were no significant realized or unrealized gains or losses for these securities for any of the periods presented.

We review the carrying value of investments to determine whether there is an other-than-temporary decline in the market value, which would require us to recognize an impairment loss. There were no other-than-temporary impairments of marketable securities in 2012 or 2011.

5. Property, Plant and Equipment

As a result of the 2012 Change in Control Transaction, a purchase accounting fair value increase adjustment of $21.3 million was recorded and allocated primarily to our corporate headquarters building and related building improvements as the other assets carrying values approximated their fair values.

6. Goodwill

Goodwill is tested for impairment at the reporting unit level on an annual basis, in the fourth quarter, or on an interim basis if changes in circumstances could reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying value. Our reporting units are consistent with our operating segments for the U.S. Information Services and Interactive segment. The reporting units for our International segment are the geographic regions of Africa, Canada, Latin America and Asia.

Our impairment tests are performed using a discounted cash flow analysis that requires certain assumptions and estimates regarding economic factors and future profitability. Goodwill impairment tests performed during 2012, 2011, and 2010 resulted in no impairment, except for amounts recorded in discontinued operations as discussed in Note 18, “Discontinued Operations.” At December 31, 2012, there was no accumulated goodwill impairment loss.

As a result of the 2012 Change in Control Transaction, the excess of the purchase price over the preliminary fair value of the net tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired was recorded as goodwill. See Note 2, “2012 Change in Control Transactions.”

Goodwill allocated to our segments as of December 31, 2012, April 30, 2012, and December 31, 2011 and 2010, and changes in the carrying amount of goodwill during the twenty-four months ended December 31, 2012 consisted of the following:

Deferred income taxes increased $605.9 million from December 31, 2011, primarily due to the tax effect of purchase accounting fair value adjustments recorded for financial statement purposes but not for tax purposes as a result of the 2012 Change in Control Transaction and taxes accrued under ASC 740-30 on unremitted foreign earnings as further discussed in Note 14, “Income Taxes.”

TransUnion Holding

9.625% notes

In connection with the acquisition of TransUnion Corp., TransUnion Holding issued $600.0 million principal amount of 9.625%/10.375% senior unsecured PIK toggle notes (“9.625% notes”) to certain private investors on March 21, 2012. TransUnion Holding is required to pay interest on the 9.625% notes in cash unless certain conditions described in the indenture governing the notes are satisfied, in which case the Company will be entitled to pay interest for such period by increasing the principal amount of the notes or by issuing new notes (such increase being referred to as “PIK,” or paid-in-kind interest) to the extent described in the indenture.

In connection with the issuance of the 9.625% notes, we entered into a registration rights agreement that required us to exchange the 9.625% notes for an equal amount of notes registered with the SEC. We filed the Registration Statement on Form S-4 for the notes with the SEC on August 31, 2012, and the related prospectus on September 6, 2012. All of the notes were exchanged in the exchange offer. The registration of the notes did not change any of the terms of the notes, other than lifting transfer restrictions on the notes.

The indenture governing the 9.625% notes contains nonfinancial covenants that include restrictions on our ability to pay dividends or distributions, repurchase equity, prepay junior debt, make certain investments, incur additional debt, issue certain stock, incur liens on property, merge, consolidate or sell certain assets, enter into transactions with affiliates, and allow to exist certain restrictions on the ability of subsidiaries to pay dividends or make other payments to the Company. We are in compliance with all covenants under the indenture.

8.125% notes

On November 1, 2012, TransUnion Holding issued $400.0 million principal amount of 8.125%/8.875% senior unsecured PIK toggle notes (“8.125% notes”) due June 15, 2018, at an offering price of 99.5% in a private placement to certain investors. TransUnion Holding is required to pay interest on the 8.125% notes in cash unless certain conditions described in the indenture governing the notes are satisfied, in which case the Company will be entitled to pay interest for such period by increasing the principal amount of the notes or by issuing new notes to the extent described in the indenture.

In connection with the issuance of the 8.125% notes, TransUnion Holding successfully completed a Consent Solicitation to amend the indenture governing its 9.625% notes. The amendment permitted the issuance of the additional $400 million indebtedness and allowed TransUnion Holding to make a dividend payment to its shareholders. The 8.125% notes contain a registration rights agreement that will require us to exchange the notes for an equal amount of notes registered with the SEC. The indenture governing these notes and the nonfinancial covenants are substantially similar to those governing the outstanding 9.625% notes. The proceeds were used to pay a $373.8 million dividend to our shareholders and to pay various costs associated with issuing the debt and obtaining consents from our existing debt holders. In addition, as part of the transaction, on November 1, 2012, TransUnion LLC prepaid $10.0 million of the senior secured term loan with cash on hand.

Transunion Corp.

Senior secured credit facility

In connection with the 2010 Change in Control Transaction discussed in Note 2, “Change in Control Transactions,” on June 15, 2010, the Company entered into a senior secured credit facility with various lenders. On February 10, 2011, the Company amended and restated its senior secured credit facility to borrow new funds under a new senior secured term loan and replace the senior secured revolving line of credit. In connection with the refinancing in February 2011, the Company borrowed an additional $4.8 million under the term loan. Effective upon the acquisition of TransUnion Corp. by TransUnion Holding as described in Note 2, “Change in Control Transactions,” the senior secured credit facility was further amended to increase the applicable margin on the term loan and revolving line of credit borrowings by 75 basis points and 50 basis points, respectively. In addition, the amendment increased the capacity and extended the term on a portion of the revolving line of credit. The senior secured credit facility was further amended on February 5, 2013. See Note 26, “Subsequent Event.”

This credit facility consists of a seven-year $950.0 million senior secured term loan and a $210.0 million senior secured revolving line of credit. Interest rates on the borrowings are based on the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) unless otherwise elected. As of December 31, 2012, the term loan was subject to a floor of 1.50% plus an applicable margin of 4.00%. The revolving line of credit had three tranches subject to floors of 1.50% to 1.75%, plus applicable margins of 3.00% to 5.00%, depending on the tranche and our senior secured net leverage ratio. There is a 0.5% annual commitment fee payable quarterly based on the undrawn portion of the revolving line of credit. With certain exceptions, the obligations are secured by a first-priority security interest in substantially all of the assets of Trans Union LLC, including its investment in subsidiaries. The credit facility contains various restrictions and nonfinancial covenants, along with a senior secured net leverage ratio test that only applies to periods in which we have outstanding amounts drawn on the revolving line of credit. The nonfinancial covenants include restrictions on dividends, investments, dispositions, future borrowings and other specified payments, as well as additional reporting and disclosure requirements. The credit facility restrictions and covenants exclude any impact of the purchase accounting fair value adjustments or the increased amortization expense resulting from the 2012 Change in Control Transaction. We are in compliance with all of the loan covenants.

Under the term loan, the Company is required to make principal payments of 0.25% of the original principal balance at the end of each quarter, with the remaining principal balance due February 10, 2018. The Company will also be required to make additional principal payments beginning in 2013 based on excess cash flows of the prior year. Depending on the senior secured net leverage ratio for the year, a principal payment of between zero and fifty percent of the excess cash flows will be due the following year. During 2012, the company repaid $19.5 million on the term loan, including a $10.0 prepayment on November 1, 2012, upon issuance of the 8.125% notes. Under the revolving line of credit, the first $25.0 million commitment expires June 15, 2015, the next $30.0 million commitment expires February 10, 2016, and the remaining $155.0 million commitment expires on February 10, 2017. The Company did not repay or borrow any funds under its revolving line of credit during 2012.

On April 30, 2012, we entered into swap agreements that will effectively fix the interest payments on a portion of the term loan at 2.033%, plus the applicable margin, beginning March 28, 2013. Under the swap agreements, which we have designated as cash flow hedges, we pay a fixed rate of interest of 2.033% and receive a variable rate of interest equal to the greater of 1.50% or the 3-month LIBOR. The net amount to be paid or received will be recorded as an adjustment to interest expense. The change in fair value of the swap instrument is recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), net of tax, in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income to the extent the hedge is effective, and in other income and expense in the consolidated statements of income to the extent the hedge is ineffective. The total notional amount of the swaps at December 31, 2012 was $500 million and is scheduled to decrease as scheduled principal payments are made on the term loan. The total fair value of the swap instruments as of December 31, 2012, was a liability of $5.8 million and was included in other liabilities on our consolidated balance sheet. The net of tax unrealized loss on the swap instruments as of December 31, 2012, of $3.7 million was included in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). Through December 31, 2012, there were no gains or losses related to hedge ineffectiveness. If we elect a non-LIBOR interest rate on our term loan, or if we pay down our term loan below the notional amount of the swaps, the resulting ineffectiveness would be reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) on our consolidated balance sheet to other income and expense on our consolidated statement of income. The cash flows on the hedge instrument begin on June 28, 2013, and we do not expect to elect a non-LIBOR loan or to pay down our term loan below the notional amount of the swaps in the next 12 months.

11.375% notes

In connection with the 2010 Change in Control Transaction, on June 15, 2010, Trans Union LLC and its wholly-owned subsidiary TransUnion Financing Corporation, issued $645.0 million of senior notes to certain private investors. The senior notes mature on June 15, 2018, and accrue interest at a fixed rate of 11.375% per annum, payable semi-annually. Pursuant to a registration rights agreement, these senior notes have been registered with the SEC. The indenture governing the senior notes contains nonfinancial covenants that include restrictions on dividends, investments, dispositions, future borrowings and other specified payments, as well as additional reporting and disclosure requirements. The senior notes covenants exclude any impact of the purchase accounting fair value adjustments or the increased amortization expense resulting from the 2012 Change in Control Transaction. We are in compliance with all covenants under the indenture. As a result of the 2012 Change in Control Transaction, a purchase accounting fair value adjustment increase of $124.2 million was allocated to the senior notes.

RFC loan

In connection with the 2010 Change in Control Transaction, on June 15, 2010, the Company borrowed $16.7 million from an entity owned by Pritzker family business interests under the foreign cash loan (the “RFC loan”). The RFC loan was an unsecured, non-interest bearing note, discounted by $2.5 million for imputed interest. Interest expense was calculated under the effective interest method using an imputed interest rate of 11.625%. The Company repaid the remaining principal of the loan in connection with the 2012 Change in Control Transaction as discussed in Note 2, “Change in Control Transactions.” The Predecessor repaid $5.1 million of principal and imputed interest during 2011.

Note Payable for 2011 acquisition of noncontrolling interests

On April 15, 2011, we acquired the remaining 20% ownership interest in our South Africa subsidiary, TransUnion Analytic and Decision Services (Proprietary) Limited, from the noncontrolling shareholders. In connection with this acquisition, we issued a note to the sellers for $2.0 million. The note is an unsecured, non-interest bearing note, discounted by $0.2 million for imputed interest, due in annual installments of $1.0 million on April 15, 2012, and April 15, 2013. Interest expense is calculated under the effective interest method using an imputed interest rate of 10.0%.

TransUnion Holding and TransUnion Corp.

Fair Value of Fixed Rate Notes

The fair value of our fixed-rate debt is determined using Level 2 inputs, quoted market prices for publicly traded instruments. As of December 31, 2012, the fair value of our 9.625%, 8.125% and 11.375% notes were $639.8 million, $413.5 million and $753.0 million, respectively, compared to book value of $600.0 million, $398.0 million and $758.4 million, respectively.

Effective January 1, 2012, the look-through rule under subpart F of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code expired. The subpart F provisions require U.S. corporate shareholders to recognize current U.S. taxable income from passive income, such as dividends earned, at certain foreign subsidiaries regardless of whether that income is remitted to the U.S. The look-through rule had provided an exception to this recognition for subsidiary passive income attributable to an active business. Beginning in 2012, under ASC 740-30, we recorded tax expense for the income tax we would incur if our foreign earnings were distributed up our foreign chain of ownership, but not remitted to the U.S. In calculating the U.S. tax expense on unremitted foreign earnings, we offset the increase in tax with the benefit of related foreign tax credits. As part of the American Taxpayer Relief Act of 2012 enacted into law on January 2, 2013, the look-through rule was retroactively reinstated to January 1, 2012, and we expect to reverse the tax expense we recorded for Subpart F in 2012 during the first quarter of 2013.

The increase in tax deductible transaction costs and interest expense resulting from the 2012 Change in Control Transaction and the related increase in debt significantly reduced the amount of foreign tax credits available to offset our tax expense on both foreign dividends received and unremitted foreign earnings.

TransUnion Holding

The effective tax rate was 244.4% for the period of inception through December 31, 2012. This rate was higher than the 35% U.S. federal statutory rate primarily due to the lapse of the look-through rule and the reduction in available foreign tax credits, the unfavorable impact of ASC 740-30 and the tax non-deductibility of certain costs incurred in connection with the 2012 Change in Control Transaction, partially offset by a favorable tax rate differential on the Company’s foreign earnings.

As a result of the 2012 Change in Control Transaction and increased debt service requirements resulting from the additional debt incurred by TransUnion Holding, we asserted under ASC 740-30 that all unremitted foreign earnings of TransUnion Corp. accumulated as of April 30, 2012, were not indefinitely reinvested outside the U.S. Accordingly, we recorded a deferred tax liability for the full estimated U.S. tax cost, net of related foreign tax credits, associated with remitting these earnings back to the U.S.

TransUnion Corp.

As a result of the 2012 Change in Control Transaction, TransUnion Corp. has two taxable years in 2012, one for the Predecessor and one for the Successor. Effective April 30, 2012, TransUnion Corp. and its U.S. subsidiaries will join in the filing of a consolidated U.S. federal tax return with TransUnion Holding. The tax expense and deferred tax accounts of TransUnion Corp. Successor are calculated as if TransUnion Corp. files a separate U.S. tax return, which excludes the operations of TransUnion Holding.

The effective tax rate was 33.7% for the eight months ended December 31, 2012. This rate was lower than the U.S. federal statutory rate of 35% primarily due to the favorable tax rate differential on foreign earnings and the favorable impact on the ASC 740-30 deferred tax liability due to a reduction in the Dominican Republic withholding tax, partially offset by the lapse of the look-through rule and the reduction in available foreign tax credits.

For the four months ended April 30, 2012, we reported a loss from continuing operations before income taxes. The effective tax benefit rate for this period of 18.0% was lower than the U.S. federal statutory rate of 35% primarily due to the application of ASC 740-30 to our unremitted foreign earnings, the non-deductibility of certain costs incurred in connection with the 2012 Change in Control Transaction and limitations on our foreign tax credits.

For 2011, the effective tax rate of 26.5% was lower than the U.S. federal statutory rate of 35% primarily due to the additional tax-deductible transaction costs resulting from our analysis of the fees incurred in the 2010 Change in Control Transaction and lower tax rates in foreign countries, primarily Canada and Puerto Rico, partially offset by the impact of foreign dividends and foreign tax credits.

For 2010, the effective tax rate of 55.8% was higher than the U.S. federal statutory rate of 35% primarily due to the nondeductible expenses related to the 2010 Change in Control Transaction and the limitation on our foreign tax credit.

The temporary differences resulting from differing treatment of items for tax and accounting purposes result in deferred tax assets and liabilities. If deferred tax assets are not likely to be recovered in future years, a valuation allowance is recorded. During 2012, our valuation allowance increased $10.3 million. As of December 31, 2012 and 2011, a valuation allowance of $27.2 million and $16.9 million, respectively, was recorded against the deferred tax assets generated by capital loss, foreign loss and foreign tax credit carryforwards. Our capital loss carryforwards will expire over the next three years and our foreign loss and credit carryforwards will expire over the next ten years.

We have not provided for U.S. deferred income tax on $16.4 million of unremitted earnings from certain non-U.S. subsidiaries accumulated after April 30, 2012, since these earnings are intended to be permanently reinvested in operations outside of the United States. It is impractical at this time to determine the tax impact if these earnings were distributed.

The total amount of unrecognized tax benefits of TransUnion Holding as of December 31, 2012, was $4.9 million. The amount of unrecognized tax benefits of TransUnion Holding that would affect the effective tax rate, if recognized, was $4.9 million. The total amount of unrecognized tax benefits of TransUnion Corp. as of December 31, 2012 and 2011, was $4.8 million and $3.2 million, respectively. The amount of unrecognized tax benefits of TransUnion Corp. that would affect the effective tax rate, if recognized, was $4.8 million and $3.2 million as of December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

Total amount of unrecognized tax benefits consisted of the following:


(in millions)	TransUnion Holding December 31, 2012			TransUnion Corp. Successor December 31, 2012			TransUnion Corp. Predecessor December 31, 2011
Balance as of beginning of period	$	3.2		$	3.2		$	2.1
Additions for tax positions of prior years		0.2			0.2			0.4
Reductions for tax positions of prior years		—			—			—
Additions for tax positions of current year		1.7			1.6			2.2
Reductions relating to settlement and lapse of statute		(0.2	)		(0.2	)		(1.5	)

Balance as of December 31	$	4.9		$	4.8		$	3.2

Consistent with prior periods, we classify interest on unrecognized tax benefits as interest expense and tax penalties as other income or expense on the statement of income. We classify any interest or penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as other liabilities on the balance sheet. Interest expense related to taxes was insignificant for the years ended December 31, 2012, and December 31, 2011. The accrued interest payable for taxes as of December 31, 2012 and 2011 was $0.5 million and $0.5 million, respectively. There was no significant expense recognized, or significant liability recorded, for tax penalties as of December 31, 2012 or 2011.

We are regularly audited by federal, state, local and foreign taxing authorities. Given the uncertainties inherent in the audit process, it is reasonably possible that certain audits could result in a significant increase or decrease in the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits. An estimate of the range of the increase or decrease in unrecognized tax benefits due to audit results cannot be made at this time. As of December 31, 2012, tax years 2008 and forward remained open for examination in some state and foreign jurisdictions, and tax years 2009 and forward remained open for the U.S. federal audit.

15. Stock-Based Compensation

From the date of inception through December 31, 2012, TransUnion Holding recognized stock-based compensation of $3.0 million, with a related income tax benefit of approximately $1.1 million. For the eight months ended December 31, 2012, TransUnion Corp. Successor recognized $2.6 million of stock-based compensation, with a related income tax benefit of approximately $0.9 million. For the four months ended April 30, 2012, TransUnion Corp. Predecessor recognized $90.0 million of stock-based compensation, with a related income tax benefit of approximately $32.4 million. Stock-based compensation recognized by TransUnion Corp. Predecessor in 2011 and 2010 totaled $4.6 million and $31.8 million, respectively. The income tax benefit related to stock-based compensation was approximately $1.7 million and $11.5 million in 2011 and 2010, respectively.

In connection with the 2010 Change in Control Transaction described in Note 2, “Change in Control Transactions,” the Company adopted the TransUnion Corp. 2010 Management Equity Plan, as approved by the stockholders. In connection with the 2012 Change in Control Transaction, all outstanding awards under the 2010 Management Equity Plan immediately vested and TransUnion Corp. Predecessor recognized $88.0 million of additional stock-based compensation, approximately $56.3 million net of tax. Upon the 2012 Change in Control Transaction, the 2010 Management Equity Plan was cancelled and replaced with the TransUnion Holding Company, Inc. 2012 Management Equity Plan, under which stock-based awards may be issued to executive officers, employees and independent directors of the Company. A total of 8.3 million shares have been authorized for grant under the 2012 plan.

Stock Options

During the eight months ended December 31, 2012, the Company granted 6.6 million stock options with a ten-year term under the 2012 Management Equity Plan. Of the stock options granted, 40% vest based on the passage of time (service condition options), and 60% vest based on the passage of time and meeting certain market conditions (market condition options). Service condition options vest over a five-year service period, with 20% vesting on either the first anniversary of the 2012 Change in Control Transaction or one year after the grant date, and 5% vesting each quarter thereafter. Market condition options vest according to the scheduled vesting of service condition options, but are also contingent on meeting the market conditions.

The service condition options had a weighted-average grant date fair value of $4.97 per share, measured using the Black-Scholes valuation model with the following weighted-average assumptions: expected volatility of 59% based on comparable company volatility; expected life of 6.19 years using the simplified method described in SAB No. 110 because we do not have historical data related to exercise behavior; risk-free rate of return of 0.89% derived from the constant maturity treasury curve for a term matching the expected life of the award; and an expected dividend yield of zero. The market condition options had a weighted average grant date fair value of $4.08 per share, measured using a risk-neutral Monte Carlo valuation model, with assumptions similar to those used to value the service condition options.

In connection with a special dividend of $3.41 per common share paid on November 1, 2012, the Company’s compensation committee of the board of directors approved an equitable adjustment to reduce the exercise price of options outstanding at November 9, 2012, from $10.07 to $6.65 per share. Since the Company’s options do not contain mandatory anti-dilution provisions, the adjustment was treated as a modification of the options’ terms and conditions, resulting in $2.8 million of additional compensation expense that is being recognized over the remaining requisite service period.

Stock option activity consisted of the following:

⁽¹⁾	For periods after April 30, 2012, the weighted average exercise price reflects the November 9, 2012, modified exercise price as discussed above.

In connection with the 2012 Change in Control Transaction, all options outstanding under the 2010 Management Equity Plan were cancelled and existing option holders received $91.2 million in cash consideration for the value of their options. For the four months ended April 30, 2012, and the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, the weighted average grant date fair value of options granted was $15.45, $8.28 and $6.07 per share, respectively. The total intrinsic value of options exercised during the four months ended April 30, 2012, and the year ended December 31, 2011 was less than $0.1 million in each period. No options were exercised during 2010.

As of December 31, 2012, stock-based compensation expense remaining to be recognized in future years related to options was $12.2 million for service condition options and $15.2 million for market condition options, with a weighted-average recognition period of 4.6 and 4.4 years, respectively. During the eight months ended December 31, 2012, no options vested under the 2012 Management Equity Plan.

Stock appreciation rights

During the eight months ended December 31, 2012, the Company granted 0.9 million stock appreciation rights (“SARs”) with a ten-year term and an exercise price of $10.07 per share under the 2012 Management Equity Plan. Of the SARs granted, 40% vest over a five-year service period, and 60% vest over a five-year service period, but are contingent on meeting certain market conditions. The SARs provide for cash settlement and are being accounted for as liability awards, with expense recognized based on the award’s fair value and the percentage of requisite service rendered at the end of each reporting period in accordance with ASC 718-30-30-3. In connection with a special dividend of $3.41 per common share paid on November 1, 2012, the Company’s compensation committee of the board of directors approved an equitable adjustment to reduce the exercise price of the SARs outstanding at November 9, 2012, from $10.07 to $6.65 per share.

As of December 31, 2012, none of the SARs were vested or exercisable. Compensation expense remaining to be recognized in future years was $2.5 million based on the fair value of the awards at December 31, 2012.

Restricted stock

During the eight months ended December 31, 2012, the Company granted less than 0.1 million shares of restricted stock that cliff vest after three years under the 2012 Management Equity Plan. The total grant date fair value of the restricted stock was $0.3 million. For the year ended December 31, 2011, the Company did not have any activity with respect to restricted stock. During 2010, all unvested restricted stock previously issued to employees under the TransUnion Corp. Equity Award Program immediately vested upon the 2010 Change in Control Transaction. As a result, the Company recognized $20.7 million of additional stock-based compensation, with a related income tax benefit of approximately $7.5 million.

Restricted stock activity consisted of the following:


	Restricted Stock
	Shares			Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value
Nonvested at December 31, 2009		1,272,782		$	23.74
Granted		556,276			23.03

The total fair value of restricted stock vested in 2010 was $44.3 million.

16. Fair Value

Financial instruments measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of December 31, 2012, consisted of the following:


(in millions)	Total			Level 1		Level 2			Level 3
Trading securities	$	11.4		$	11.4	$	—		$	—
Interest rate swaps		(5.8	)		—		(5.8	)		—

Total financial instruments at fair value	$	5.6		$	11.4	$	(5.8	)	$	—

Level 1 investments, which use quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets to establish fair value, consist of exchange-traded mutual funds and publicly traded equity investments valued at their current market prices. Level 2 investments consist of interest rate swaps that are further discussed in Note 13, “Debt.” We determined the fair value of the interest rate swaps using standard valuation models with market-based observable inputs including forward and spot exchange rates and interest rate curves. At December 31, 2012, we did not have any investments valued using Level 3 inputs.

17. Business Acquisitions

2011 acquisitions

Crivo Sistemas em Informatica S.A.

On December 28, 2011, we acquired an 80% ownership interest in Crivo, a Brazilian company, for $44.7 million in cash. The purchase was funded using cash on hand. Crivo provides software and services to companies in Brazil to help them make credit, risk and fraud-related decisions. This acquisition is consistent with our strategic objective to invest in growing international regions and will be integrated into our International business segment. Pro forma financial information is not presented because the acquisition was not material to our 2011 consolidated operating results. The results of operations of this business have been included as part of the international segment in the accompanying consolidated statements of income since the date of acquisition.

Purchase Price Allocation

During 2012, we finalized the allocation of the purchase price. The fair value of the net assets acquired and the liabilities assumed as of December 28, 2011, consisted of the following:


(in millions)	Fair Value
Trade accounts receivable and other current assets	$	1.7
Property and equipment		10.8
Identifiable intangible assets		20.2
Goodwill⁽¹⁾		35.2

Total assets acquired	$	67.9
Total liabilities assumed		(12.0	)

Net assets of acquired company	$	55.9
Less: noncontrolling interests		(11.2	)

Purchase price of 80% ownership interest	$	44.7

⁽¹⁾	For tax purposes, none of the goodwill was initially tax deductible. However, as part of a restructuring in March 2012, Crivo merged with a holding company and the entire amount of goodwill shown above became tax deductible.

The excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired was recorded as goodwill. The purchase price of Crivo exceeded the fair value of the net assets acquired primarily due to growth opportunities, synergies between its customer base and our existing products, and other technological and operational synergies.

Identifiable Intangible Assets

The fair value of identifiable intangible assets acquired was based on many factors, including an analysis of historical financial performance and estimates of future performance, and was determined using analytical approaches appropriate to the facts and circumstances pertaining to the various classes of assets valued, including discounted cash flow and market-based approaches. The fair values of the intangible assets acquired consisted of the following:


(in millions)	Fair Value		Estimated Useful Life
Customer relationships	$	16.7		19 years
Trademarks and tradenames		1.1		20 years
Noncompete agreements		2.4		8 years

Total identifiable intangible assets	$	20.2

The weighted-average useful life of identifiable intangible assets is approximately 18 years.

Acquisition Costs

Acquisition costs of $2.4 million in 2011 and $0.5 million in 2012, including investment banker fees, legal fees, due diligence and other external costs were incurred and included in other income and expense in each respective year.

Financial Healthcare Systems, LLC

On October 13, 2011, we acquired a 100% ownership interest in Financial Healthcare Systems, LLC (“FHS”), a Colorado limited liability company. The purchase price allocation was completed in 2011. The results of operations of this business have been included as part of the USIS segment in the accompanying consolidated statements of income since the date of acquisition.

2010 acquisition

On August 1, 2010, we acquired a 51% ownership interest in Databusiness S.A., located in Chile. The purchase price allocation was completed in 2010. The results of operations of this business have been included as part of the International segment in the accompanying consolidated statements of income since the date of acquisition.

18. Discontinued Operations

During the first quarter of 2010, we completed the sale of the remaining business comprising our real estate services business. During the second quarter of 2010, we completed the sale of our third-party collection business in South Africa to the existing minority shareholders. We will have no significant ongoing relationship with either of these businesses. We had no revenue from discontinued operations in 2011 or 2012. Revenue from discontinued operations was $5.0 million in 2010. We had no income or loss from discontinued operations in 2012. The net loss from discontinued operations for 2011 of $0.5 million was a result of expenses incurred to wind down these operations. Income from discontinued operations for 2010 included gains, net of tax, of $10.9 million on the final disposal of these businesses and operating losses of $2.7 million.

19. Operating Segments

Operating segments are businesses for which separate financial information is available and evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision-maker in deciding how to allocate resources. This segment financial information is reported on the basis that is used for the internal evaluation of operating performance. The accounting policies of the segments are the same as described in Note 1, “Significant Accounting and Reporting Policies.”

We evaluate the performance of segments based on revenue and operating income. Intersegment sales and transfers have been eliminated and were not material.

The following is a more detailed description of the three operating segments and the Corporate unit, which provides support services to each operating segment:

U.S. Information Services

U.S. Information Services (“USIS”) provides consumer reports, credit scores, verification services, analytical services and decisioning technology to businesses in the United States through both direct and indirect channels. These services are offered to customers in the financial services, insurance, healthcare and other markets. These business customers use our products and services to acquire new customers, identify cross-selling opportunities, measure and manage debt portfolio risk, collect debt, and manage fraud. This segment also provides mandated consumer services, including dispute investigations, free annual credit reports and other requirements of the United States Fair Credit Reporting Act (“FCRA”), the Fair and Accurate Credit Transactions Act of 2003 (“FACTA”), and other credit-related legislation.

International

The International segment provides services similar to our USIS segment to business customers outside the United States and automotive information and commercial data to customers in select geographies. Depending on the maturity of the credit economy in each location, services may include credit reports, analytical and decision services, and risk management services. These services are offered to customers in a number of industries, including financial services, insurance, automotive, collections and communications, and are delivered through both direct and indirect channels. The International segment also provides consumer services similar to those offered in our Interactive segment, such as credit reports, credit scores and credit monitoring services. The two market groups in the International segment are developed markets, which includes Canada, Hong Kong and Puerto Rico, and emerging markets, which includes South Africa, Mexico, Brazil, the Dominican Republic, India and other emerging markets.

Interactive

Interactive provides services to consumers, including credit reports, scores and credit and identity monitoring services, primarily through the internet. The majority of revenue is derived from subscribers who pay a monthly fee for access to their credit report and score, and for alerts related to changes in their credit reports.

Corporate

Corporate provides shared services for the Company and conducts enterprise functions. Certain costs incurred in Corporate that are not directly attributable to one or more of the operating segments remain in Corporate. These costs are typically for enterprise-level functions and are primarily administrative in nature.

Licensing agreements

We have agreements with Fair Isaac Corporation to license credit-scoring algorithms and the right to sell credit scores derived from those algorithms. Payment obligations under these agreements vary due to factors such as the volume of credit scores we sell, what type of credit scores we sell, and how our customers use the credit scores. There are no minimum payments required under these licensing agreements; however we do have a significant level of sales volume related to these credit scores.

21. Contingencies

Litigation

Due to the nature of our businesses, claims against us will occur in the ordinary course of business. Some of these claims are, or purport to be, class actions that seek substantial damage amounts, including punitive damages. Claimants may seek modifications of business practices, financial incentives or replacement of products or services. We regularly review all claims to determine whether a loss is probable and, if probable, whether the loss can be reasonably estimated. If a loss is probable and can be reasonably estimated, an appropriate reserve is accrued, taking into consideration legal positions, contractual obligations and applicable insurance coverages, and included in other current liabilities. We believe that the reserves established for pending or threatened claims are appropriate based on the facts currently known. Due to the uncertainties inherent in the investigation and resolution of a claim, however, additional losses may be incurred that could materially affect our financial results. Legal fees for ongoing litigation are considered a period cost and are expensed as incurred.

As of both December 31, 2012 and 2011, TransUnion Corp. had accrued $5.6 million for pending or anticipated claims of our continuing operations. These amounts were recorded in other accrued liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets and the associated expenses were recorded in selling, general and administrative expenses on the consolidated statements of income. TransUnion Holding had no litigation accruals or expense other than the accruals and expense of TransUnion Corp.
