AsTable of June 30, 2013, we had approximately $11.8 million of net unrecognized tax benefits ($12.8 million on a gross basis) which would affect our effective tax rate if recognized. We believe that it is reasonably possible that approximately $0.3 million of our current remaining net unrecognized tax positions may be recognized within the next twelve months as a result of the lapse of the statute of limitations in various tax jurisdictions.

Accordingly, the financial statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required by by United States generally accepted accounting principles, and while the Company believes that the disclosures presented are adequate to make the information presented not misleading, these financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and related notes included in the Company’s 2012 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

(a) During the three and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2013, total stock compensation expense before income taxes was $1.68 million and $45.29 million, respectively, prior to the capitalization of $0.2 million and $0.46 million, respectively, as part of ongoing development initiatives. Stock-based compensation expense includes $0.5 million and $2.05 million for the three and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2013 related to cash distributions accrued in connection with the Holdings recapitalization transaction undertaken in December 2012, ~~recapitalization~~as disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012 (the “Holdings 2012 Recapitalization”), for options that vested during those respective periods. The $0.5 million is recorded in “Accrued liabilities” on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet at ~~June~~September 30, 2013.

There were no excess tax benefits related to the exercise of stock options in either the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2013 or the ~~six~~ nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2012.

Assumptions and Fair Values

The Company estimated the fair value of stock options granted with service-based conditions on the date of grant using a Black-Scholes model. The Company estimated the fair value of stock options granted with performance-based vesting conditions on the date of grant using the Monte Carlo Simulation approach. Key assumptions used in estimating the grant date fair value of options are as follows: the fair value of Holdings Common Stock, interest yield, expected volatility, risk-free interest rate, expected term and forfeiture rate.

Stock options with performance-based vesting conditions generally become exercisable based on the occurrence of a liquidity event that results in specified returns on the Sponsors’ investment. For awards with performance-based vesting conditions, the Company evaluates a range of possible future stock values to construct a distribution of where future stock prices might be. The simulations and resulting distributions give a statistically acceptable range of future stock prices for awards with performance-based conditions.

For stock options with performance-based vesting conditions such as a change in control or a public offering of Holdings Common Stock, the Company considers the probability of the condition being achieved and, in the case of a market condition, also considers a derived service period when determining expected term. For awards with service based vesting conditions, the expected term is based on when employees are expected to exercise awards based on the period of vesting and the timing of a potential change in control or public offering.

Because Holdings Common Stock is not traded on any public market, the Company reviews the unlevered historical and implied volatility of peer companies within the Company’s industry and utilizes the resulting implied volatility, adjusted for the Company’s debt structure, to calculate the fair value of the options. The determined risk-free interest rate is based on the yield for a U.S. Treasury security having a maturity similar to the expected life of the option. The assumed forfeiture rate is determined based on historical forfeiture data as well as future expectations. The dividend yield and estimated time to complete a liquidity event are based on management’s judgment with input from the Company’s Board of Directors.

The dividend yield and estimated time to complete a liquidity event are based on management’s judgment with input from the Company’s Board of Directors.

For share-based awards granted during the three-month periods ended September 30, 2013, June 30, 2013 and March 31, 2013, the Board of Directors of the Company valued Holdings Common Stock at $1.16, $1.08 and $1.00 per share, respectively. This share price was based on the results of a valuation analysis performed as of August 31, 2013, April 30, 2013 and December 19, 2012, respectively, which valued Holdings Common Stock on a non-marketable, minority interest basis. The valuation process undertaken used generally accepted valuation methodologies to perform the valuation of Holdings Common Stock using both the income (discounted cash flows methodology) and market (guideline-company and comparable transaction methodologies) approaches. A lack of marketability discount derived from empirical studies and theoretical models was then applied to the resulting share price to arrive at the final share price used for determining compensation cost related to share-based options issued during the applicable periods.

The Company recognizes share-based compensation expense net of estimated forfeitures and, therefore, only recognizes compensation cost for those awards expected to vest over the service period of the awards. The Company has applied a forfeiture rate of 7% for non-executive employees who received grants of less than 1.0 million shares and 0% for executives and non-executive employees who received grants in excess of 1.0 million shares, to all unvested options as of September 30, 2013. This estimate is re-evaluated periodically and the forfeiture rate is adjusted as necessary.

No expense was recognized during the three- or nine-month periods ended September 30, 2013 or 2012, for options with performance-based vesting features. These options become exercisable on a change in control or public offering of Holdings Common Stock. Compensation expense associated with these awards will be recognized upon such an event.

Certain stock options held by executives are subject to call rights. The call rights permit Holdings to purchase, at its discretion, any shares exercised under these option awards at a per share price equal to the lower of the option exercise price or the fair market value if the executive voluntarily terminates his employment. These call rights lapse on a change in control or public offering of Holdings Common Stock.

The fair ~~value~~values of stock options granted under the Plan ~~was~~were estimated as of the grant-date using the Black Scholes model for ~~service~~options with service-based ~~options~~ vesting conditions or the Monte Carlo ~~simulation~~Simulation model for awards with performance-based vesting conditions, ~~with~~applying the following assumptions:

	Six Months EndedJune 30, 2013			Six Months EndedJune 30, 2012
	Nine Months EndedSeptember 30, 2013			Nine Months EndedSeptember 30, 2012
Risk free interest rate		1.14	%		1.2	%
Expected term (in years)		5.60			6.1
Weighted average expected volatility		8977.27	%		81.0	%
Expected dividend yield		0.0	%		0.0	%
Weighted average fair value of underlying Holdings shares	$	1.0315		$	1.17

The weighted average grant-date fair value of options granted under the Plan for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2013 and 2012 was $0.5040 and $0.60, respectively.

The expected term of options granted under the Plan represents a weighted average term derived from the Monte Carlo Simulation models used for each performance-based award and the service period and, to the extent established or known, the potential timing of a change in control or initial public offering for awards which vest based on service conditions.

Holdings 2012 Recapitalization

As disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012, in connection with the Holdings recapitalization transaction undertaken in December 2012, holders of options to purchase shares of Holdings Common Stock with service-based vesting conditions, received a cash distribution on the date of the recapitalization for options that were vested and unexercised as of the date of the recapitalization. ~~These~~Additional ~~holders~~cash distributions will ~~receive~~be ~~additional~~paid ~~cash~~to ~~distributions~~holders asof service-based vesting options for service-based options that were outstanding and unvested as of the date of the recapitalization as such options subsequently vest. The Company ~~intends~~calculates ~~to calculate~~ and ~~pay~~pays ~~these~~the additional cash distributions on a quarterly basis to the qualified holders of such options. The Company recorded stock compensation expense of $0.5 million and $2.05 million related to service-based options that vested during the three and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~ September 30, 2013, respectively, related to the Holdings 2012 Recapitalization.

Restricted Stock Liability

Certain executives have purchased or been granted an aggregate of 36.9 million shares of Holdings Common Stock for one dollar ($1.00) per share. These shares are subject to certain transfer restrictions and repurchase rights that allow the Company, in certain circumstances where the holder’s employment is terminated, to repurchase the shares from the holder at the lower of cost or fair market value. Due to these repurchase features, 34.5 million of these share purchases are treated as early exercises of stock options for accounting purposes, assigned a grant-date fair value and recorded as a restricted stock liability. The repurchase rights lapse on a change in control or public offering of Holdings, at which point compensation expense associated with these awards, will be recognized. The remaining 2.4 million of these shares affords the holder contingent put rights which would require the Company to repurchase the shares at fair value in the event the individual is terminated without cause or resigns for reasons considered acceptable in the share purchase agreement. The accounting for these contingent repurchase rights requires that the proceeds from these share purchases be presented outside of stockholders’ equity. As a result of these repurchase features, the Company has recorded the $36.9 million in proceeds that Holdings received for these shares in Other liabilities on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012.

Unrecognized Compensation Expense

Total unrecognized compensation expense, net of forfeitures, related to stock based awards at ~~June~~September 30, 2013 was $7582.32 million ~~comprised of unrecognized compensation expense, net of forfeitures~~. Of this amount, $4552.59 million related to Holdings’ non-vested employee stock option plan, of which $1014.38 million related to awards which become exercisable based on service based vesting conditions that will be recognized over an implicit and/or explicit weighted average service period of 23.63 years and $3538.21 million of unrecognized compensation expense related to stock option awards that vest upon meeting certain performance conditions (a change in control or a public offering of Holdings Common ~~common stock~~Stock). Compensation expense for these awards will be recognized upon attainment of a performance condition. Of the remaining $29.83 million of unrecognized compensation expense, $25.3 million relates to Holdings restricted stock and $4.5 0 million relates to unpaid cash distributions on unvested options resulting from the Holdings 2012 recapitalization transaction discussed above. Compensation expense for Holdings restricted stock will be recognized upon a change in control or public offering of Holdings Common Stock, and compensation expense related to the Holdings 2012 ~~recapitalization~~Recapitalization ~~transaction~~ will be recognized as the associated options vest.

4. Cash, Cash Equivalents and ~~Marketable~~Short-term ~~Securities~~Investments

Cash and cash equivalents consist primarily of cash deposits held at major financial institutions and money market fund investments. The Company considers all liquid investments with original maturities of less than three months to be cash equivalents.

During the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2013, the Company received proceeds totaling $1420.21 million from the sale of certain short-term investments that were held as of December 31, 2012.

During the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2013, the Company entered into an additional short-term ~~investment~~investments with a total value of $3.3 million at ~~June~~September 30, 2013. Inclusive of this new short-term investment, the Company’s total balance of short-term investments was $~~11.~~6.1 million at ~~June~~September 30, 2013, which was composed of interest bearing term deposits with maturities of six months to one year, all of which have been classified as held to maturity. Interest received on these term deposits is recorded as interest income. These investments are recorded in Short-term investments on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet at ~~June~~September 30, 2013.

5. Fair Value Measurements

The fair value hierarchy prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. Observable inputs are inputs that reflect the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of the Company. Unobservable inputs are inputs that reflect the Company’s assumptions about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on the best information available in the circumstances.

The three levels of the fair value hierarchy in order of priority are as follows:

Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access as of the reporting date. Active markets are those in which transactions for the asset or liability occur in sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis.


Level 1:		Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access as of the reporting date. Active markets are those in which transactions for the asset or liability occur in sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis.

Level 2:		Pricing inputs other than quoted prices in active markets included in Level 1, which are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reporting date. These include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets and quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active.

Level 3:		Unobservable inputs that reflect the Company’s assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. Unobservable inputs are used to measure fair value to the extent that observable inputs are not available.

The fair value of the mutual fund assets and related liability are based on the quoted market price of each fund at the reporting date.

(2) The estimated fair values of the Company’s derivative instruments are based on market prices obtained from an independent third party valuation specialist. Such quotes represent the estimated amounts the Company would receive or pay to terminate the contracts. Derivative instruments are included in the Other assets, Accrued liabilities and Other liabilities on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet at ~~June~~September 30, 2013. Refer to Note 14, “Derivatives,” below for further discussion and information.

The Company currently invests excess cash balances primarily in cash deposits held at financial institutions, money market fund accounts and other forms of short -term investments. The carrying amounts of cash deposits, trade receivables, trade payables and accrued liabilities, as reported on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of ~~June~~September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, approximate their fair value because of the short maturity of those instruments.

The carrying value of borrowings outstanding under the Company’s Senior Secured Credit Facilities, which bear interest at a variable rate, are considered to approximate fair value. The carrying value of the Company’s Senior Notes due 2018, which bear interest at a fixed rate, differ from their fair values as follows:

The fair value of the Company’s Senior Notes due 2018 is based on market-based information available from public sources representing a Level 1 valuation.

7. Commitments and Contingencies

In connection with the provision of services in the ordinary course of business, the Company ~~often~~may ~~makes representations~~be ~~affirming,~~required ~~among~~to ~~other~~indemnify customers ~~things,~~against ~~that~~third-party ~~its~~claims ~~services~~that ~~do not infringe on~~ the ~~intellectual~~Company’s ~~property~~services ~~rights~~infringe ofupon ~~others~~such ~~and agrees to indemnify customers against~~ third-party’s ~~claims~~intellectual ~~for~~property ~~such infringement~~rights. The Company has not been required to make material payments under such provisions. The Company is involved in litigation and is the subject of claims made from time to time, including with respect to intellectual property rights. A portion of the defense and/or settlement costs in some such cases is covered by various commercial liability insurance policies. In other cases, the defense and/or settlement costs are paid from the Company’s existing cash resources. In addition, the Company’s third-party data suppliers audit the Company from time to time in the ordinary course of business (including audits underway) to determine if data the Company licenses for redistribution has been properly accounted for in accordance with the terms of the applicable license agreement. In view of the Company’s financial condition and the accruals established for related matters, management does not believe that the ultimate liability, if any, related to any of these matters will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

8. Income Taxes

For the ~~six~~three months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2013, the Company’s quarterly effective tax rate after discrete items was a 3a 103.30% benefit as compared to a 175,827.91% ~~expense~~benefit for the ~~six~~three months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2012. The Company’s estimated annual effective tax rate prior to the impact of discrete items for the year ending December 31, 2013 is a 7.9.7% expense. Accordingly, for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~ September 30, 2013 the Company calculated its interim tax provision using a 7.9.7% effective tax rate excluding the net discrete tax benefit of $19.56 million. The net discrete benefit in the six months ended June 30, 2013 was primarily attributable to the 2012 U.S. Research and Development Credit which was extended by the American Taxpayer Relief Act of 2012 (“ATRA”) enacted on January 3, 2013, and the release of tax reserves, being partially offset by an interest expense charge on tax reserves for unrecognized tax benefits and tax provision to tax return adjustments with respect to the filing of prior year returns in foreign jurisdictions.

The change in the estimated annual tax ~~rates~~rate, prior to the impact of discrete items, of the 7.9.7% expense for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2013, when compared with the 47117.69% benefit for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2012 is primarily related to expected lower losses in the U.S. in 2013 when compared with 2012.

The ~~Company~~net ~~has~~discrete anbenefit ~~income~~in ~~tax~~the ~~receivable~~nine ~~balance~~months ended September 30, 2013 was primarily attributable to a reduction of the U.K. tax rate enacted in July 2013 by Her Majesty’s Revenue and Customs (“HMRC”) which resulted in a $67.28 million atbenefit ~~June~~during the quarter ended September 30, 2013. ~~This~~The ~~balance~~discrete isbenefit ~~comprised~~also ofincluded (1) a $1.4 million benefit for the 2012 U.S. ~~tax receivable~~Research ofand ~~$5.9~~Development ~~million,~~Credit ~~related~~which towas ~~carryback~~extended ~~claims~~by ~~filed~~the inAmerican ~~September~~Taxpayer ~~2011~~Relief ~~for~~Act ~~foreign~~of ~~tax~~2012 ~~credits~~(“ATRA”) ~~and~~enacted on January 3, 2013; (2) $0.3 million ~~related~~of tax provision to ~~the~~tax ~~filing~~return ofadjustments ~~amended~~with ~~income~~respect ~~tax~~to ~~returns~~the ~~for~~filing of prior ~~years~~year returns in ~~certain~~the U.S. and foreign jurisdictions.; ~~The~~and ~~full~~(3) $0.1 ~~balance~~million ~~is expected~~from tothe berelease ~~received~~of ~~within~~tax ~~the~~reserves. ~~next~~These ~~twelve~~benefits ~~months~~were ~~and~~partially isoffset ~~classified~~by asan ~~current~~interest inexpense ~~the~~charge ~~Company’s~~on ~~Condensed~~tax ~~Consolidated~~reserves ~~Balance~~for ~~Sheet~~unrecognized attax ~~June 30, 2013~~benefits.

The Company has an income tax receivable balance of $6.3 million at September 30, 2013. This balance is comprised of a U.S. tax receivable of $6.0 million, related to carryback claims filed in September 2011 for foreign tax credits and $0.3 million related to the filing of amended income tax returns for prior years in certain foreign jurisdictions. The full balance is expected to be received within the next twelve months and is classified as current in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet at September 30, 2013.

The Company recognizes future tax benefits or expenses attributable to its taxable temporary differences and net operating loss carry forwards. Recognition of deferred tax assets is subject to the Company’s determination that realization is more likely than not. Based on taxable income projections the Company believes that the recorded deferred tax assets will be realized.

During the first ~~six~~nine months of 2013, the Company’s balance of gross uncertain tax positions increased by $1.49 million, offset by a decrease of $1.3 million upon release of $1.0 million of reserves and a cash payment of $0.3 million upon the settlement of an audit. As of ~~June~~September 30, 2013, the Company had approximately $1112.83 million of net unrecognized tax benefits ($1213.82 million on a gross basis) which would affect its effective tax rate if recognized. The Company believes that it is reasonably possible that approximately $0.3 million of its currently remaining net unrecognized tax ~~positions~~benefits may be recognized within the next twelve months as a result of the lapse of the statute of limitations in various tax jurisdictions.

The Company recognizes net interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions in income tax expense. Interest and penalties of $0.12 million and $0.35 million were provided in income tax expense for uncertain tax positions for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~ September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. ~~Gross~~As of September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, gross reserves for interest and penalties ofwere $1.12 million and $1.0 million, ~~have~~respectively. ~~been~~The ~~provided~~Company atfiles ~~June 30~~federal, ~~2013~~state, and ~~December 31,~~foreign ~~2012,~~income ~~respectively.~~tax returns in

(1) In August 2011, the Company determined ~~that~~based ason a ~~result~~review of development efforts completed at that time and a review of initiatives to be completed, that the Company’s completed technologies useful lives ~~were~~should be extended through December 31, 2013. In May 2013, continued review of the Company’s in-process development initiatives resulted in a further extension of the useful lives of these completed technologies through December 31, 2014. This change in accounting estimate was accounted for during the quarter ended June 30, 2013 and the impact of extending the lives of the completed technologies resulted in an increase in Income from Operations of approximately $15.72 million in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations from the date of the change through ~~June~~September 30, 2013 due to decreased amortization expense being recorded. Additionally, the change in accounting estimate had an approximate $13.13 million favorable impact on the Company’s net income for the ~~quarter~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2013. Finally, the extension of the useful lives resulted in the weighted average amortization period for completed technologies increasing to 4.4 years from 3.6 years.

11. Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Intangibles – Goodwill and Other

In July 2012, the FASB issued ASU 2012-02, “Testing Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets for Impairment” (“ASU 2012-02”), regarding ASC Topic 350, “Intangibles – Goodwill and Other”. ASU 2012-02 allows an entity the option of first assessing qualitative factors to determine whether the existence of events or circumstances leads to a determination that it is more likely than not that the fair value of an indefinite-lived intangible asset is less than its carrying value. Under the provisions of ASU 2012-02, if after assessing the totality of the events or circumstances, an entity determines that it is not more likely than not that the fair value of an indefinite-lived intangible asset is less than its carrying value, performance of an annual impairment test is unnecessary. ASU 2012-02 was effective for fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2012. ASU 2012-02 became effective for the Company on January 1, 2013 and did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Comprehensive Income

In February 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-02, “Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income” (“ASU 2013-02”), regarding ASC Topic 220 “Comprehensive Income.” ASU 2013-02 requires an entity to report the effect of significant reclassifications out of accumulated other comprehensive income on the respective line items in net income if the amount being reclassified is required under GAAP to be reclassified in its entirety to net income. For other amounts that are not required under GAAP to be reclassified in their entirety to net income in the same reporting period, an entity is required to cross-reference to other disclosures required under GAAP that provide additional detail about those amounts such as in cases where a portion of the amount reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income is reclassified to a balance sheet account instead of directly to income or expense in the same reporting period. ASU 2013-02 became effective for the Company on January 1, 2013 and did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Liabilities

In February 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-04, “Obligations Resulting from Joint and Several Liability Arrangements for Which the Total Amount of the Obligation Is Fixed at the Reporting Date” (“ASU 2013-04”), regarding ASC Topic 405 “Liabilities.” ASU 2013-04 requires an entity to measure obligations resulting from joint and several liability arrangements for which the total amount of the obligation within the scope of the guidance is fixed at the reporting date, as a sum of 1) the amount the reporting entity agreed to pay on the basis of its arrangement among its co-obligors, and 2) any additional amount the reporting entity expects to pay on behalf of its co-obligors. This update also requires the entity to disclose the nature and amount of the obligation as well as other information about the obligation. ~~For public filers,~~ ASU 2013-04 is effective for the Company for fiscal years and interim periods within those years that begin after December 15, 2013, with early adoption permitted, and must be applied retrospectively to all prior periods presented. The Company is currently evaluating the impact, if any, the adoption of ASU 2013-04 will have on its financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Foreign Currency Matters

In March 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-05, “Parent’s Accounting for the Cumulative Translation Adjustment upon Derecognition of Certain Subsidiaries or Groups of Assets within a Foreign Entity or of an Investment in a Foreign Entity” ~~(“ASU 2013-05”), regarding ASC Topic 830 “Foreign Currency Matters.” ASU 2013-05 states that when a parent ceases~~ to have a controlling financial interest in a subsidiary or group of assets that is a nonprofit activity or a business within a foreign entity, the parent is required to release any related cumulative translation adjustment into net income. This should be done only if the sale or transfer results in the complete or substantially complete liquidation of the foreign entity in which the subsidiary or group of assets had resided. For an equity method investment that is a foreign entity, partial sale guidance still applies, which requires a pro rata portion of the cumulative translation adjustment to be released into net income upon a partial sale of such an equity method investment. ASU 2013-05 also clarifies the fact that the sale of an investment in a foreign entity includes both 1) events that result in the loss of a controlling financial interest in a foreign entity and 2) events that result in an acquirer obtaining control of an acquiree in which it held an equity interest immediately before the acquisition date. Upon the occurrence of either of these events, the cumulative translation adjustment should be released into net income. For public filers, ASU 2013-05 is effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those years that begin after December 15, 2013, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact, if any, the adoption of ASU 2013-05 will have on its financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

(“ASU 2013-05”), regarding ASC Topic 830 “Foreign Currency Matters.” ASU 2013-05 states that when a parent ceases to have a controlling financial interest in a subsidiary or group of assets that is a nonprofit activity or a business within a foreign entity, the parent is required to release any related cumulative translation adjustment into net income.

The Company is currently evaluating the impact, if any, the adoption of ASU 2013-05 will have on its financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Basis of Presentation

In April 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-07, “Liquidation Basis of Accounting” (“ASU 2013-07”), regarding ASC Topic 205 “Presentation of Financial Statements.” ASU 2013-07 requires an entity to prepare its financial statements using the liquidation basis of accounting when liquidation is imminent. Additionally, ASU 2013-07 requires financial statements prepared using the liquidation basis of accounting to present relevant information about an entity’s expected resources in liquidation by measuring and presenting assets at the amount of the expected cash proceeds from liquidation, including the presentation of any items it had not previously recognized under U.S. GAAP but that it expects to either sell in liquidation or use in settling liabilities (for example, trademarks). Finally, ASU 2013-07 requires disclosures about an entity’s plan for liquidation, the methods and significant assumptions used to measure assets and liabilities, the type and amount of costs and income accrued, and the expected duration of the liquidation process. ASU 2013-07 is effective for entities that determine liquidation is imminent during annual periods beginning after December 15, 2013, and interim reporting periods therein, with early adoption permitted, and must be applied prospectively from the day that liquidation becomes imminent. The Company is currently evaluating the impact, if any, the adoption of ASU 2013-07 will have on its basis of presentation.

15Derivatives and Hedging

In July 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-10, “Inclusion of the Fed Funds Effective Swap Rate (or Overnight Index Swap Rate) as a Benchmark Interest Rate for Hedge Accounting Purposes” (“ASU 2013-10”), regarding ASC Topic 815 “Derivatives and Hedging.” ASU 2013-10 permits companies to use the Fed Funds Effective Swap Rate (OIS) as a U.S. benchmark interest rate for hedge accounting purposes under Topic 815, in addition to the interest rates on direct Treasury obligations of the U.S. government (UST) and the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR). ASU 2013-10 also removes the restriction on using different benchmark rates for similar hedges. ASU 2013-10 is effective for entities prospectively, and must be applied for qualifying new or redesignated hedging relationships entered into on or after July 17, 2013. The Company determined that the adoption of ASU 2013-10 did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Income Taxes

In July 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-11, “Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit When a Net Operating Loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss, or a Tax Credit Carryforward Exists” (“ASU 2013-11”), regarding ASC Topic 740 “Income Taxes.” ASU 2013-11 provides explicit guidance on the presentation of unrecognized tax benefits, as well as provides guidance on how an entity should settle at the reporting date any additional income taxes that would result from the disallowance of a tax position when net operating loss carryforwards, similar tax losses, or tax credit carryforwards exist. ASU 2013-11 is effective for the Company for fiscal years and interim periods within those years that begin after December 15, 2013, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact, if any, the adoption of ASU 2013-11 will have on its financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

13. Debt

Senior Secured Credit Facilities

On February 6, 2013, the Company completed a refinancing of its Term Loan Facility (the “Term Loan Facility”) through a 2^nd amendment (the “Amendment”) to its credit agreement (the “Senior Secured Credit Facilities”). The terms of the Amendment provide for, among other things, the following:

•

a reduction of the Company’s LIBOR borrowing rate from LIBOR plus 3.25% to LIBOR plus 2.75%;

•

a reduction of the LIBOR floor from 1.25% to 1.00%; and

•

an extension of the commencement date for amortization payments on the Term Loan Facility to June 30, 2013 (not giving consideration to application of the 2012 ECF payment).

As of the date of the refinancing, the Company’s outstanding borrowings under the Term Loan Facility were $1.~~302~~3 billion. The Company determined that the refinancing resulted in a modification of approximately $1.1 billion of the outstanding balance due and an extinguishment of approximately $180.9 million of the outstanding balance due.

Prior to the February 2013 refinancing, the Company had debt financing costs and original issue discount (“OID”) specific to its Term Loan Facility of $26.0 million and $27.9 million, respectively, recorded in its Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. The debt financing costs were included within Deferred financing cost, net and the OID was included within Borrowings, net of current portion and original issue discount and both balances were being amortized as non-cash interest expense over the remaining term of the Term Loan Facility using the effective interest rate method. In connection with the February 2013 refinancing, the Company incurred additional debt financing costs of $3.1 million, all of which represented direct issuance costs. Of this amount $2.7 million was expensed as loss on extinguishment of debt during the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~ September 30, 2013 and $0.4 million is being amortized as a non-cash interest expense over the remaining term of the amended Term Loan Facility using the effective interest rate method.

As a result of the February 2013 refinancing, the Company recorded a $10.2 million charge in its Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations as an extinguishment of debt for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~ September 30, 2013. This charge included $3.6 million of debt financing costs, $3.9 million of OID and $2.7 million of direct issuance costs as described above.

At ~~June~~September 30, 2013, the Company has recorded debt financing costs specific to its Senior Secured Credit Facilities of $2423.60 million in its Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet within Deferred financing costs, net, and $2220.08 million composed of early payment fees paid to lenders and OID included within Borrowings, net of current portion and original issue discount. These amounts are being amortized as a non-cash interest expense over the remaining amended term of the Term Loan Facility using the effective interest rate method.

Total amortization of deferred financing costs and original issue discounts related to the Senior Secured Credit Facilities was approximately $2.8 million and $53.82 million, respectively, ~~in the three~~ and ~~six months ended June 30, 2013, and~~ $38.26 million and $69.79 million, ~~for~~respectively, in each of the three- and ~~six~~nine-month ~~months~~periods ended ~~June~~September 30, 2013 and 2012, ~~respectively,~~ and is recorded as interest expense in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

During the three and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2013 and 2012, the Company recorded and paid interest on the Term Loan Facility of $12.57 million and $14.8 million, respectively, and $2538.30 million and $3044.08 million, respectively. During the three and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2013 and 2012, the Company recorded and paid commitment fees on the Revolving Credit Facility of $0.2 million and $0.2 million, respectively and $0.46 million and $0.57 million, respectively.

The Senior Secured Credit Facilities include a Revolving Credit Facility providing for aggregate borrowings of up to $160.0 million with sub-limits of $40.0 million for letters of credit and $30.0 million for same-day notice borrowings. As of ~~June~~September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the Company had $10.16 million and $4.5 million, respectively, of letters of credit outstanding, related to certain operating leases and no other borrowings outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility. The Company’s applicable ~~margin~~rate is 4.75% based on it ~~attaining~~having attained a predetermined leverage ratio established in the Senior Secured Credit Facilities. Interest on the outstanding borrowings and a commitment fee on the unutilized portion of the Revolving Credit Facility are payable at the end of each calendar quarter. Principal amounts outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility are due and payable in full at maturity.

During each of the three and ~~six~~nine month periods ended ~~June~~ September 30, 2013 and 2012, the Company recorded and paid commitment fees on letters of credit of less than $0.1 million and ~~less than~~ $0.12 million, respectively.

Borrowings under the Term Loan Facility bear interest at a rate equal to, at the Company’s option, either (a) the LIBOR rate plus an applicable margin or (b) the highest of (1) the prime commercial lending rate publicly announced by Bank of America as the “prime rate,” (2) the federal funds effective rate plus 0.50% and (3) the one-month LIBOR rate plus 1.00%, plus an applicable margin. Regardless of whether actual LIBOR rates fall below 1.00% (as they have in recent periods), for purposes of determining the Term Loan Facility interest rate, the LIBOR rate is subject to a floor of 1.00%. Prior to the February 2013 refinancing, the LIBOR applicable margin was 3.25%. Following the February 2013 refinancing, the LIBOR applicable margin is 2.75%. The highest of the three rates in (b) was 5.00% for the quarter ended September 30, 2013. Since the inception of the Term Loan Facility, the Company has elected the three-month LIBOR rate. At September 30, 2013, the Term Loan Facility interest rate was 3.75%, composed of a

~~INTERACTIVE~~ LIBOR ~~DATA~~floor ~~CORPORATION~~of ~~AND~~1.00% ~~SUBSIDIARIES~~plus the applicable margin of 2.75%. As noted above, the Company designated as accounting hedges three interest rate caps related to the Term Loan Facility with notional amounts of $450.0 million as of September 30, 2013. Refer to Note 14, “Derivatives” for further discussion.

applicable margin was 3.25%. Following the February 2013 refinancing, the LIBOR applicable margin is 2.75%. The highest of the three rates in (b) was 5.00% for the quarter ended June 30, 2013. Since the inception of the Term Loan Facility, the Company has elected the three-month LIBOR rate. At June 30, 2013, the Term Loan Facility interest rate was 3.75%, composed of a LIBOR floor of 1.00% plus the applicable margin of 2.75%. As noted above, the Company designated as accounting hedges three interest rate caps related to the Term Loan Facility with notional amounts of $575.0 million as of June 30, 2013. Refer to Note 14, “Derivatives” for further discussion.

The Term Loan Facility amortizes in equal quarterly installments in aggregate annual amounts equal to 1% of the funded principal amount of the Term Loan Facility, or $3.3 million per quarter, beginning with the quarter ended June 30, 2013 (subject to the application of the 2012 annual excess cash flow mandatory prepayment described below) with any remaining unpaid principal balance being payable on the February 11, 2018 maturity date.

In addition to paying interest on outstanding principal under the Senior Secured Credit Facilities, the Company is required to pay a commitment fee of 0.75% per annum to the lenders under the Revolving Credit Facility for the amount of unutilized commitments. ~~The~~During ~~commitment fee~~the ~~percentage~~quarter ~~may~~ended beSeptember 30, ~~reduced~~2013, tothe commitment fee percentage was 0.50% ~~subject~~due to the Company ~~reducing~~having reduced its total leverage ratio, as defined in the Senior Secured Credit Facilities agreement, to 5.0:1.0. ~~During the quarter ended June 30, 2013, the Company’s total leverage ratio was below the 5.0:1.0 threshold and the commitment fee was 0.50%.~~ The Company is also required to pay customary letter of credit fees.

The Senior Secured Credit Facilities contain certain mandatory prepayment requirements. These include: (i) a percentage of annual excess cash flow (“ECF”), (ii) payments related to certain asset sales, and (iii) payments of the cash proceeds of certain types of newly incurred debt. Determination of any mandatory prepayment amount is based on pre-established formulas as set forth in the credit agreement. The determination of the 2012 ECF payment was made as of and for the Company’s fiscal year ended December 31, 2012, with the ECF prepayment due 90 days from that date. Because the Company achieved a total leverage ratio of 4.75:1.0, the ECF payment percentage was stepped down from 50% of ECF to 25% of ECF. The 2011 ECF payment percentage was 50%. The amount determined to be payable as the 2012 ECF payment at December 31, 2012 was $20.3 million, and accordingly this amount was reflected as current in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of December 31, 2012.

18Pursuant to the terms of the credit agreement, individual lenders may opt to refuse their share of any ECF payment. In the first quarter of 2013, but after the filing of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012, certain lenders elected to refuse their portion of the 2012 ECF payment. For the Company’s 2012 ECF payment, refusals totaled approximately $16.6 million. The aggregate refused amount was reclassified and is reflected as long-term in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet at September 30, 2013.

~~Table~~In accordance with the terms of ~~Contents~~the credit agreement, ECF payments that are not refused are applied toward future scheduled quarterly principal amortization payments in direct order of maturity. Consequently, the $3.7 million 2012 ECF payment made during the three months ended March 31, 2013 satisfied the $3.3 million June 30, 2013 quarterly principal installment, and the remaining $0.4 million was applied toward the September 30, 2013 quarterly principal installment, reducing the required September 2013 installment from $3.3 million to $2.9 million.

~~INTERACTIVE~~The ~~DATA~~amount ~~CORPORATION~~that ~~AND~~may ~~SUBSIDIARIES~~be payable as a mandatory excess cash flow payment in 2014 cannot currently be reliably estimated and therefore no portion of the Company’s outstanding debt from its Senior Secured Credit Facilities related to the ECF mandatory prepayment provision is reflected as current for the quarter ended September 30, 2013.

The amount that may be payable as a mandatory excess cash flow payment in 2014 cannot currently be reliably estimated and therefore no portion of the Company’s outstanding debt from its Senior Secured Credit Facilities related to the ECF mandatory prepayment provision is reflected as current for the quarter ended June 30, 2013.

The Company may voluntarily repay outstanding loans under the Senior Secured Credit Facilities at any time without premium or penalty, other than customary breakage costs with respect to LIBOR loans and other than a 1% premium in connection with certain repricing transactions consummated within the first six months of the Amendment.

All obligations under the Senior Secured Credit Facilities are unconditionally guaranteed by Intermediate and each existing and ~~subsequently~~ subsequently acquired or organized direct or indirect wholly- owned domestic subsidiary of the Company (subject to certain exceptions).

All obligations under the Senior Secured Credit Facilities and the guarantees of such obligations are secured, subject to permitted liens and other exceptions, by substantially all of the assets of the Company and each subsidiary guarantor, including (i) a perfected pledge of all the equity interests of the Company and each wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company directly held by the Company or a subsidiary guarantor (limited to 65% of voting stock in the case of foreign subsidiaries) and (ii) a perfected security interest in substantially all tangible and intangible personal property and material fee-owned real property of the Company and the subsidiary guarantors (subject to certain exclusions).

The Senior Secured Credit Facilities contain a number of covenants that, among other things, restrict the Company’s ability to incur additional indebtedness, create liens, enter into sale and leaseback transactions, engage in mergers or consolidations, sell or transfer assets, pay dividends and distributions or repurchase its capital stock, make investments, loans or advances, prepay certain subordinated indebtedness, make certain acquisitions, engage in certain transactions with affiliates, amend material agreements governing certain subordinated indebtedness, and change its fiscal year. The Senior Secured Credit Facilities also require the Company to maintain a maximum senior secured debt leverage ratio and a minimum cash interest coverage ratio, and contain other customary affirmative covenants and events of default.

The Company is required to maintain and report quarterly to the lenders the following financial covenants:

•

A minimum cash interest coverage ratio; and

•

A maximum net total leverage ratio.

The Senior Secured Credit Facilities also contain certain customary affirmative covenants and events of default, including a change of control. If an event of default occurs, the lenders under the Senior Secured Credit Facilities will be entitled to take various actions, including the acceleration of all amounts due under the Senior Secured Credit Facilities and all actions permitted to be taken by a secured creditor.

As of ~~June~~ September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the Company was in compliance with the Senior Secured Credit Facilities covenants.

Senior Notes due 2018

On July 29, 2010, the Company issued $700.0 million 10.25% senior notes (the “Senior Notes”) which mature on August 1, 2018, pursuant to an indenture, dated as of July 29, 2010 (the “Indenture”), among the Company, the guarantors party thereto and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as trustee.

The Senior Notes are the Company’s senior unsecured obligations and rank senior in right of payment to any future subordinated indebtedness; rank equally in right of payment with all of the Company’s existing and future senior indebtedness; are effectively subordinated in right of payment to the Company’s existing and future secured obligations, including indebtedness under the Company’s Senior Secured Credit Facilities, to the extent of the value of the assets securing such obligations; and are effectively subordinated in right of payment to all existing and future indebtedness and other liabilities of the Company’s non-guarantor subsidiaries (other than indebtedness and liabilities owed to the Company or one of the Company’s guarantor subsidiaries).

The Senior Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by each of the Company’s existing and future direct or indirect wholly owned domestic subsidiaries that guarantee the Company’s obligations under its Senior Secured Credit Facilities.

Each subsidiary guarantee ranks senior in right of payment to all future subordinated indebtedness of the subsidiary guarantor; ranks equally in right of payment with all existing and future senior indebtedness of the subsidiary guarantor; is effectively subordinated in right of payment to all existing and future secured obligations of the subsidiary guarantors, including their guarantee of indebtedness under the Company’s Senior Secured Credit Facilities, to the extent of the value of the assets securing such indebtedness; and is effectively subordinated in right of payment to all existing and future indebtedness and other liabilities, including trade payables, of any subsidiary that is not also a guarantor of the Senior Notes. Any subsidiary guarantee of the Senior Notes will be released in the event such guarantee is released under the Senior Secured Credit Facilities. The Senior Notes are unsecured, and, as such, no assets are pledged for this agreement.

19Interest on the Senior Notes accrues at the rate of 10.25% per annum and is payable semi-annually in arrears on February 1 and August 1, having commenced on February 1, 2011, to holders of the notes of record on the immediately preceding January 15 and July 15. During each of the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, the Company paid interest on the Senior Notes of $71.8 million.

INTERACTIVE DATA CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Interest on the Senior Notes accrues at the rate of 10.25% per annum and is payable semi-annually in arrears on February 1 and August 1, having commenced on February 1, 2011, to holders of the notes of record on the immediately preceding January 15 and July 15. During both the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, the Company paid interest on the Senior Notes of $35.9 million.

Optional Redemption

At any time prior to August 1, 2014, the Company may redeem all or a part of the Senior Notes at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the notes redeemed plus the greater of (1) 1.0% of the principal amount of the notes; and (2) the excess, if any, of (a) the present value at such redemption date of (i) the redemption price of the notes at August 1, 2014 (as set forth in the table appearing below), plus (ii) all required interest payments due on the notes through August 1, 2014 (excluding accrued but unpaid interest to such redemption date), computed using a discount rate equal to the applicable treasury rate as of such redemption date plus 50 basis points; over (b) the then outstanding principal amount of the notes (as of, and accrued and unpaid interest and additional interest, if any, to the date of redemption), subject to the rights of holders of notes on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date.

On and after August 1, 2014, the Company may redeem the Senior Notes in whole or in part, at the redemption prices (expressed as percentages of the principal amount of the notes to be redeemed) set forth below, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon and additional interest, if any, to the applicable redemption date, subject to the right of holders of record of the Senior Notes on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date, if redeemed during the twelve-month period beginning on August 1 of each of the years indicated below:


Year	Percentage
2014		105.125	%
2015		102.563	%
2016 and thereafter		100.000	%

In addition, prior to August 1, 2013, the Company may, at its option, on one or more occasions redeem up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount of Senior Notes at a redemption price equal to 110.250% of the aggregate principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon and additional interest, if any, to the applicable redemption date, subject to the right of holders of record of the Senior Notes on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date, with the net cash proceeds of one or more equity offerings; provided that at least 50% of the sum of the aggregate principal amount of Senior Notes issued under the Indenture and the original principal amount of any additional Senior Notes that are Senior Notes issued under the Indenture after the issue date remains outstanding immediately after the occurrence of each such redemption; provided further that each such redemption occurs within 90 days of the date of closing of each such equity offering. This option is required to be bifurcated for accounting purposes as an embedded derivative in the Company’s Senior Notes. The Company has estimated the value of this option to be nominal as of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012. This call feature is being marked to market over the period it is active.

Upon the occurrence of a change of control, which is defined in the Indenture, each holder of the Senior Notes has the right to require the Company to repurchase some or all of such holder’s Senior Notes at a purchase price in cash equal to 101% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the repurchase date.

The Indenture contains covenants limiting the Company’s ability and the ability of its restricted subsidiaries to incur additional debt or issue certain preferred shares, pay dividends on or make other distributions in respect of the Company’s capital stock or make other restricted payments, make certain investments, sell or transfer certain assets, create liens on certain assets to secure debt, consolidate, merge, sell or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets, enter into certain transactions with the Company’s affiliates, and designate the Company’s subsidiaries as unrestricted subsidiaries.

The Indenture also provides for other customary warranties and nonfinancial covenants which, if violated, would create events of default and would permit or require the principal of and accrued interest on the Senior Notes to become or to be declared due and payable.

As of ~~June~~September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the Company was in compliance with the covenants included in the Indenture.

In connection with the Senior Notes, the Company incurred debt financing costs of $19.2 million, of which $10.5 million represented direct issuance costs and commitment fees paid to the underwriters and $8.7 million represented transaction costs incurred with third parties. These costs were capitalized as deferred financing costs and reported in Deferred financing costs, net on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets at ~~June~~September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, net of amortization for the ~~six~~nine months ending ~~June~~September 30, 2013 and for the year ended December 31, 2012, respectively. These costs are ~~being~~ being amortized over the term of each debt instrument using the effective interest rate method.

At ~~June~~September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the Company had $12.0 million and $29.9 million, respectively, of unpaid interest on the Senior Notes accrued in its Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. During each of the three- and ~~six~~nine-month ~~months~~periods ended ~~both June~~ September 30, 2013 and 2012, the Company recorded $1.1 2 million, and $2.3.5 million, respectively, of amortized interest expense, related to the capitalized debt financing costs and debt discount accretion, in its Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

The original issue discount with regard to the Senior Notes totaled $17.5 million at July 29, 2010. The original issue discount is being amortized over the life of the loan using the effective interest rate method.

Igloo Holdings Senior PIK Toggle Notes Due 2017

On December 18, 2012, Holdings issued the Toggle Notes pursuant to the Toggle Notes Indenture. The Toggle Notes are structurally subordinated to the Senior Notes and any other indebtedness and other liabilities of the Company and other subsidiaries of Holdings. Claims of creditors of the Company and such other Holdings subsidiaries, including trade creditors, the Senior Secured Credit Facilities lenders and claims of preferred stockholders will have priority with respect to the assets and earnings over the claims of Holdings’ creditors, including the holders of the Toggle Notes. The Company and its subsidiaries are not guarantors or obligors of the Toggle Notes. In addition, the Toggle Notes are unsecured. None of the Company’s assets, or any of its subsidiaries’ assets, are pledged to secure the Toggle Notes. Holdings is the Company’s indirect parent company with no material operations of its own and only limited assets or operations other than the indirect ownership of all of the Company’s capital stock. Accordingly, Holdings is dependent upon the distribution of the earnings of its subsidiaries, whether in the form of dividends, advances, payments on account of intercompany obligations or otherwise, to service its debt obligations. Therefore, subject to the limitations placed upon the Company by the covenants under the Senior Secured Credit Facilities and the Indenture governing the Senior Notes due 2018, the Company plans to provide Holdings, through the declaration and payment of cash dividends, the funds required by Holdings to service the Toggle Notes on at least a semi-annual basis. ~~starting~~The ~~with~~first ~~the~~such ~~payment~~dividend ~~due~~was on declared and paid in June ~~15,~~ 2013. ~~Interest~~Semi-annual interest payments on the Toggle Notes are due June 15 and December 15 of each year commencing June 2013 and continuing until the December 15, 2017 maturity date. The amount of the semi-annual dividend that the Company plans to pay Holdings, subject to compliance with its own debt covenants, is $14.4 million, ~~(with~~which ~~the~~is ~~exception~~equal ofto the semi-annual Toggle Note interest payment.

14. Derivatives

Interest Rate Cap- Cash Flow Hedge

The Company is exposed to certain risks arising from both its business operations and economic conditions. The Company manages its exposure to some of its interest rate risks by the use of derivative financial instruments. The Company currently uses derivatives for risk management purposes and not for speculative purposes.

On September 13, 2010, the Company entered into three separate interest rate cap agreements to help mitigate the interest rate volatility associated with the variable rate interest on its Senior Secured Credit Facilities. Interest rate cap agreements provide the right to receive cash if a reference interest rate rises above a contractual rate. The value increases as the reference interest rate rises. The aggregate premium of the cap agreements is $5.0 million, including a deferred financing charge of approximately $0.5 million. This aggregate premium is payable quarterly over twelve quarters, beginning September 30, 2011.

INTERACTIVE DATA CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The critical terms of the interest rate caps were designed to mirror the terms of the Company’s LIBOR based borrowings under its Senior Secured Credit Facilities and the Company has determined the hedging relationship to be highly effective. Based on this, the Company re-designated these derivatives as cash flow hedges of the variability of a portion of the LIBOR based interest payments as follows:

•

Up to $700 million of principal payments during the period September 30, 2011 to September 30, 2012,

•

Up to $575 million of principal payments during the period October 1, 2012 to September 30, 2013, and

•

Up to $450 million of principal payments during the period October 1, 2013 to September 30, 2014.

To the extent the cash flow hedge is effective at offsetting the changes in cash flow being hedged, changes in its fair value are ~~recognized~~ recognized in accumulated other comprehensive income (“AOCI”), until the hedged item affects earnings. Changes in fair value relating to the ineffective portion are immediately recognized in earnings. Changes in the fair value of derivatives that are not designated as hedges are recorded in earnings each period. As of ~~June~~September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the Company determined that the existence of hedge ineffectiveness, if any, was immaterial and all changes in the fair value of the caps are recorded in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income as a component of AOCI.

~~The~~23 aggregate fair value of these interest rate caps was determined to be approximately $4.5 million at inception and approximately $0.03 million and $0.01 million at June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively, and is included in Other assets on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Refer to Note 5 “Fair Value Measurements” above for related fair value disclosures.

15. Related Parties

Management Agreement

The Company is party to a Transaction Management Fee Agreement (the “Management Agreement”) with certain affiliates of the Sponsors. Pursuant to the terms of the Management Agreement, such affiliates will provide monitoring, advisory and consulting services to the Company and its subsidiaries and are entitled to receive an aggregate annual management fee of $3.0 million. Under the terms of the Management Agreement, this fee may increase in the event that the Company or any of its subsidiaries enter into any business combination with another entity that is large enough to constitute a “significant subsidiary” of the Company under Regulation S-X as promulgated by the SEC. Payments of the accrued fees are made on a quarterly basis. During the three and ~~six~~nine months ended both ~~June~~September 30, 2013 and 2012, the Company recorded management fees in its Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations under the Management Agreement of $0.8 million and $12.53 million, respectively. The amount due to such affiliates of the Sponsors at ~~June~~both September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012 was approximately $0.~~8 million and $0.~~4 million, ~~respectively,~~ and is included in Accrued liabilities on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

As of ~~June~~ September 30, 2013, certain executives have purchased an aggregate of 36.9 million shares of Holdings Common Stock for $1.00 per share, and 8.6 million shares of Holdings Common Stock for $1.16 per share. These individuals are employees of the Company and the Company is a consolidated subsidiary of Holdings. The 36.9 million shares purchased for $1.00 per share were recorded as restricted stock liabilities within the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. Refer to Note 3 “Stock-Based Compensation” for further discussion of the Company’s associated long-term restricted stock liability.

22 Under the terms of the Employment Agreement dated September 12, 2013 between the Company and its newly appointed Chief Executive Officer, the Chief Executive Officer was provided the right to execute a subscription agreement to purchase $10.0 million worth of Holdings Common Stock, or 8.6 million shares at $1.16 per share. The subscription agreement was subsequently executed on September 26, 2013. The consideration for the purchase is composed of $5.0 million cash and a $5.0 million secured, recourse promissory note issued by the Chief Executive Officer to Holdings on September 26, 2013. The promissory note matures upon the earlier to occur of (i) the termination of the Chief Executive Officer’s employment for “cause” (as defined in the Employment Agreement), (ii) two business days prior to the anticipated occurrence of any event (as reasonably determined by Holdings) with respect to the Chief Executive Officer, which, in any such case if the promissory note were to be outstanding on and/or after such date, would result in the Note violating Section 402 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, and (iii) the eighteen (18) month anniversary of the promissory note issuance date.

16. Subsequent Events

The Company has evaluated all events and transactions that occurred after the balance sheet date of ~~June~~September 30, 2013 up through the issuance of these financial statements and has not identified any material subsequent events that require disclosure.

17. Guarantor Subsidiaries

On July 29, 2010 the Company issued $700.0 million aggregate principal amount Senior Notes as described in Note 14 13. The Senior Notes are jointly and severally guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by each of the Company’s existing and future direct and indirect domestic subsidiaries that guarantees the Company’s obligations under the Senior Secured ~~Credit~~ Credit Facility described in Note 1413, (collectively, the “Guarantors”). The guarantees are full and unconditional, subject to customary automatic release provisions. These customary conditions include, for example, the automatic release of the guarantee upon the sale, exchange, or transfer (by merger or otherwise) of all or substantially all of the Guarantor’s assets, which sale, exchange or transfer is made in compliance with the applicable provisions of the Senior ~~Note~~ Note Indenture. Each of the Guarantors is 100% owned, directly or indirectly, by the Company. Subsidiaries of the Company, either direct or indirect, that do not guarantee the Senior Notes are referred to as “Non-Guarantors”. The Guarantors also unconditionally guaranteed the Senior Secured Credit Facilities, described in Note 1413.

The following ~~condensed~~ condensed consolidating financial statements are presented for the information of the holders of the Senior Notes and present the Condensed Consolidating Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income for the three and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~ September 30, 2013 and 2012, the Condensed Consolidating Balance Sheets as of ~~June~~September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, and the Condensed Consolidating Statements of Cash Flows for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively, of of the parent companies, including but not limited to the Company (which is the issuer of the Notes), the Guarantors, the Non-Guarantors, and the elimination entries necessary to consolidate and combine the issuer with the Guarantors and Non-Guarantors on a consolidated and combined basis.

Investments in subsidiaries are accounted for using the equity method for purposes of the consolidating presentation. The principal elimination entries relate to investments in subsidiaries and intercompany balances and transactions. Separate financial statements and other disclosures with respect to the subsidiary guarantors have not been provided as management believes the following information is sufficient, as the guarantor subsidiaries are 100% owned by the parent and all guarantees are full and unconditional, subject to the customary automatic release provisions described above.

Overview

We are a leading provider of financial market data, analytics and related solutions. Thousands of financial institutions, as well as hundreds of software and service providers subscribe to our services. We are one of the world’s largest providers of financial data, serving the mutual fund, bank, asset management, hedge fund, securities and financial instrument processing and administration sectors. We distribute our financial data and related offerings directly to customers and indirectly through value-added resellers (“VARs”), including software providers, processors and custodians.

We are wholly owned by Igloo Intermediate Corporation (“Intermediate”), which is wholly owned by Igloo Holdings Corporation (“Holdings”). Holdings is owned by investment funds affiliated with, and a co-investment vehicle controlled by, Silver Lake Group, LLC and Warburg Pincus LLC (the “Sponsors”). This Management Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (“MD&A”) excludes the accounts of Intermediate and Holdings. The Pricing and Reference Data segment represents our evaluated pricing, reference data and fixed income analytics service areas. The Trading Solutions segment represents our real-time data feeds, trading infrastructure managed services, hosted web applications and workstations. ~~Historical financial results have been reclassified to reflect this change.~~ Please refer to Note 6 “Segment Information” in the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Pricing and Reference Data

Our Pricing and Reference Data segment provides an extensive range of financial market data services and analytics to thousands of customers worldwide including banks, brokerage firms, mutual fund companies, exchange traded fund (“ETF”) sponsors, hedge funds, pension funds, insurance companies and asset management firms. In addition, our offerings are also used by financial information providers, information media companies, and VARs such as software providers, processors, custodians and other outsourcing organizations. The Pricing and Reference Data Segment has three core offerings: 1) Evaluated pricing services, which are daily opinions of value, on approximately 2.8 million fixed income securities, international equities and other hard-to-value financial instruments; 2) Reference data, which encompasses listed markets pricing, terms and conditions, corporate actions, business entity and other descriptive information covering over 10 million global financial instruments for use across the securities and financial instrument processing lifecycle; and 3) Fixed income portfolio analytics and fixed income data to help manage risks and analyze the sources of investment risk and return. The Pricing and Reference Data segment accounted for $~~160~~159.12 million, or 7170.19%, of our revenue for the three months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2013 and $~~317~~476.67 million, or 70.8%, of our revenue for the ~~six~~nine months then ended.

Business Strategy

We are focused on expanding our position as a trusted leader in the financial information services market, and the following key priorities underpin our business strategy:

Enhance Breadth and Scope of Product Offerings to Cater to Customers’ Needs. A key element of our strategy involves working closely with our largest direct institutional customers and redistributors to better understand and address their current and future financial market data needs. By better understanding customer needs, we believe we can develop enhancements to existing services and introduce new services. We plan to develop new and enhanced services, tools and solutions that further strengthen and expand existing customer relationships, and attract new customers and strategic partners worldwide. As part of our efforts to build strong customer relationships, we continue to invest significant resources to provide high-quality, responsive customer support and service. We believe that our combination of strong account management and responsive customer support has contributed to our high customer retention rates as well as enhanced our ability to attract new customers.

33During the third quarter of 2013, we advanced a number of ongoing initiatives aimed at enhancing the breadth and scope of our offerings, accelerating the development of innovative, new products and services, expanding market coverage and enhancing the delivery of our services. Major product development milestones included the following:

~~Table~~• ofNew ~~Contents~~transparency and pricing validation workflow enhancements for Vantage, our web portal that offers insight into the fixed income markets and our evaluated pricing services;

During the second quarter of 2013, we advanced a number of ongoing initiatives aimed at enhancing the breadth and scope of our offerings, accelerating the development of innovative, new products and services, expanding market coverage and enhancing the delivery of our services:

• Development of our new web-based transparency and workflow solution, Vantage, which offers insight into the fixed income markets and our evaluated pricing services;

•

Development of various delivery capabilities for Apex^SM, an innovative suite of pricing and reference data delivery options and managed services aimed at helping firms more easily and rapidly integrate our content across their enterprises while also increasing workflow efficiency and reducing operational costs;

Create a Unified Technology Platform. We continue to maintain a broad range of delivery platforms and legacy technology infrastructures as a result of supporting long-standing client relationships and completing numerous acquisitions over the years. Following our acquisition in 2010 by affiliates of the Sponsors, we have made substantial progress toward developing and deploying a unified technical architecture that will enable us to consolidate our delivery platforms and legacy technology infrastructures, and facilitate cost-effective collection, aggregation and distribution of the content that supports our evaluated pricing, reference data and real-time feed services as well as various other offerings.

Improve Cost Structure and Drive Efficiencies. We continue to implement programs that can further improve our technical infrastructure, optimize our cost structure, increase our operational efficiency, and facilitate future revenue growth.

Expand our Business Internationally. The market for financial information services is global and many of our largest clients operate in multiple geographic regions. We are working to generate revenue growth outside of North America by extending our industry-leading capabilities across a wider range of multi-national and international clients and geographic regions. In order to achieve this, we have continued to realign resources to better support sales and product development activities, and direct additional resources in growth-oriented international markets including recruiting local management for certain international markets, advancing the local market relevancy and capabilities of our offerings and continuing to pursue third-party relationships, acquisitions and strategic alliances internationally.

Pursue Opportunistic Strategic Acquisitions. In the past, strategic acquisitions have complemented our internal investment activities, and we may elect to pursue certain strategic acquisitions in the future in order to achieve key business objectives.

Business and Market Trends

The global financial markets have experienced extreme volatility and disruption in recent years. As a result, financial institutions globally have acted to control or reduce operational spending. Nevertheless, during this time, we have maintained positive overall revenue growth, although certain of our business areas have experienced declining revenue.

We expect that uncertainty with respect to spending on financial information and related services will persist throughout the remainder of 2013. ~~While~~and ininto ~~some~~2014. ~~areas~~While the anticipated impact of current trends in some areas may lead to reduced demand for market data and related services, we believe overall spending on financial information services will grow modestly over the next several years. At this time, however, it remains unclear which segments of the financial market data ~~industry will be most impacted by the current market and regulatory environment and the continued focus on controlling or reducing spending.~~

data and related services, we believe overall spending on financial information services will grow modestly over the next several years. At this time, however, it remains unclear which segments of the financial market data industry will be most impacted by the current market and regulatory environment and the continued focus on controlling or reducing spending.

We believe that the following trends will influence the growth of the financial information services industry in general and certain of our offerings in particular.

•

Increased U.S. and global regulation, continued changes to accounting standards and growing emphasis on risk management within financial services: We believe that increased regulation, and greater oversight and scrutiny by regulators worldwide, combined with potentially greater use of fair value accounting standards globally and an intensifying focus on risk management and transparency, will increase demand for our Pricing and Reference Data offerings and analytical decision-support tools. However, it is unclear at this time how and to what degree these trends will impact our business.

•

Increased focus on cost containment and operational efficiency: In recent years, a number of large financial institutions took actions to downsize their organizations, and reduce or contain spending. Related to this, there has been and continues to be an industry trend for financial institutions to outsource various financial market data applications and services. In addition to outsourcing specific applications, many North American financial institutions outsource their back-office operations to service bureaus and custodian banks. These cost containment and outsourcing trends, individually or in combination with each other, may impact our business either positively through increased adoption of our products and services as customers seek to consolidate their spending with us or outsource certain operations by leveraging our services; or adversely through longer sales cycles, increased cancellations, service downgrades, reductions in the growth of usage-related revenue, and increased pricing pressure.

•

Growth in global assets under management: Over the past several years, global assets under management have increased largely due to rising net flow of investment and strong performance in major equity and fixed income markets. Periods of high fund flows and strong market performance typically lead to the creation of new funds and new firms to manage investment demand while low fund flows, poor market performance and net redemptions often result in a reduction in the number of funds and firms that manage investment assets. Although our revenue is not directly linked to assets under management, these trends help highlight the overall health of the global financial markets and the financial health of the participants in those markets. As a result, these trends can be indicative of a firm’s overall capacity to purchase market data and related solutions. Despite these trends, we continue to see financial institutions remain cautious about their spending plans.

•

Continued innovation in electronic trading systems: Financial institutions are increasingly deploying automated algorithmic and electronic trading applications to more efficiently execute their trading strategies. These applications require connectivity to stock exchanges and trading venues with minimal latency. In addition, the trend toward algorithmic and other electronic trading programs is contributing to significant growth in market data volumes, thereby requiring both market data suppliers like ourselves and financial institutions to increase network capacity to address these volume issues. Our January 2010 acquisition of 7ticks, a provider of trading infrastructure managed services, combined with our consolidated real-time data feed offerings, enhanced our ability to satisfy demand for services that support electronic trading applications.

• Consolidation within and across the financial services industry: Over the past decade, there have been a considerable number of merger and acquisition (“M&A”) transactions involving financial institutions of varying sizes. The merger of two or more financial institutions can often lead to the elimination of redundant data sources, and M&A activity within the financial services industry may impact our future revenue. Our experience is that the integration of two or more financial institutions that merge ~~may~~can take up to two or more years, and it can present us with both opportunity and risk for our future revenue as a result. The opportunity is that we may gain a larger customer that may seek to spend more with us across their consolidated operations. The risk is that we may lose revenue if the combined entity either elects to consolidate data services with another vendor or eliminates data sourcing that is redundant. We deliver market data services to a number of customers involved in recent M&A activity. It remains unclear how our customers’ recent M&A activity will affect their near and long-term spending on our offerings. ~~M&A activity within the financial services industry may adversely impact our future revenue.~~

• Confluence of dynamics within the wealth management sector: We believe that there are a myriad of changes that have occurred to influence how financial services companies manage their global wealth management capabilities, including the ways in which they utilize market data and related solutions. Among the key demographic trends are the long-term growth in savings and investments related to the population born in the years following World War II (referred to as the baby boom generation), the privatization of various pension programs, and significant wealth accumulation in certain emerging markets. Key sector specific trends within wealth management include significant market volatility, increased and evolving regulation, consolidation among broker workstation vendors, consolidation of broker-dealers and clearing firms that typically service smaller retail and regional brokerage firms, increasing client asset shifts toward independent registered investment advisors and online brokers, downsizing and other cost-reduction initiatives by brokerage firms, and intensified competition for active trader subscribers. Overall, we expect the combination of these trends to have a favorable impact on our offerings for the wealth management sector, although certain aforementioned trends such as downsizing and cost reduction initiatives, and intensified competition for active trader subscribers have potential to adversely impact our future revenue.

• Recent and anticipated innovation in structuring financial instruments: The complexity of financial instruments has escalated in recent years, although new issuances of certain asset classes slowed significantly in the wake of the recent financial crisis. Despite the recent slowdown, we believe that there will be continued innovation in the types of financial instruments being issued and we expect that this will provide us with additional growth opportunities. Determining the fair value of highly complex instruments requires specialized expertise, and the firms trading these instruments often seek to leverage efficiencies by obtaining data and services from independent third-party providers like ourselves to assist them in their valuation of these instruments. Furthermore, while there has been a recovery in the new issuance of certain fixed income financial instruments, it is unclear whether such recovery and the continued innovation in financial instruments will be sustained or extended across other fixed income asset classes.

Our Pricing and Reference Data segment continued to grow in recent quarters primarily due to expansion within our evaluated pricing and reference data product areas in North America. Key drivers within these product areas were strong revenue retention rates; increased demand from existing customers and, to a lesser extent, new customers; improving usage revenue; certain one-time sales related to specific content sets and/or the evolving use of data to support new areas; and the effect of annual price increases. Maintaining existing business and closing new sales are dependent on our ability to meet the current and evolving needs of our customers, particularly as regulatory changes occur and as financial instruments become more numerous.

We have historically achieved high revenue retention rates within our Pricing and Reference Data segment due primarily to the strength of our offerings, the way in which our services often support workflow-centric applications, as well our responsive account management and support. We measure revenue retention rates for this segment by using the following formula: we divide the dollar magnitude of cancellations (including service downgrades and renegotiations) we received during the prior 12 months by the annualized quarterly revenue entering that same 12-month period. We then subtract this percentage from 100% to derive the annualized quarterly revenue retention rate. Our annualized quarterly revenue retention rate for our Pricing and Reference Data segment has averaged approximately 94% since 2007, and it was approximately 95% for the quarter ended June 30, 2013 compared with 93% for the quarter ended June 30, 2012. In filings from prior years, our annualized quarterly revenue retention rates, which were calculated for the former Institutional Services segment, excluded service downgrades and renegotiations. We have revised our calculation for all periods presented to now include service downgrades and renegotiations. The timing and magnitude of

cancellations (including service downgrades and renegotiations) have the potential to distort annualized revenue retention rates in any segment or product area for any given period.

The revenue performance within our Trading Solutions segment in recent quarters has been impacted by the challenging market conditions which have continued to affect the segment’s new sales and, to a lesser extent, cancellation levels by smaller clients across both product areas. In particular, we have experienced extended sales cycles, particularly for larger, more strategic engagements. Growth in our Trading Solutions segment is dependent, in large part, on a combination of the following: increasing real-time feeds sales, driving continued adoption of our trading infrastructure managed services, expanding our presence in the wealth management sector, attracting new subscribers for our active trader, and energy and commodity workstations, and strengthening overall customer retention.

Within our Trading Solutions segment, we report the total number of global subscribers across our range of workstations. As of June 30, 2013, our workstations and related services supported approximately 85,400 total subscribers worldwide, compared with approximately 82,800 total subscribers as of June 30, 2012. Please note that the total number of subscribers now includes certain subscribers who use modified versions of our workstations that offer fewer features and limited content (these subscribers had not been included in prior quarterly or annual filings during 2011 or 2012). In our filings prior to 2011, the number of subscribers we reported was limited to direct subscription terminals within our historical Active Trader segment. The total number of subscribers as of June 30, 2012 was updated so as to be comparable to June 30, 2013. Period-to-period changes in the total number of global subscribers, as well as shifts in the mix of subscribers by service type can also impact future revenue.

Across each of our businesses, regardless of business segment, we contract with customers through fixed fee subscriptions (on either a multi-year, annual, quarterly or monthly basis), variable fees based on usage or a combination of fixed fee subscription and usage-based fees. In addition, some of our services generate one-time or non-recurring revenue, such as one time purchases of historical data or installations (including installations of product upgrades or infrastructure). Our contracts typically renew automatically unless canceled by one of the parties.

and regional brokerage firms, increasing client asset shifts toward independent registered investment advisors and online brokers, downsizing and other cost-reduction initiatives by brokerage firms, technology changes including increased use of mobile applications by advisors, and intensified competition for active trader subscribers. Overall, we expect the combination of these trends to have a favorable impact on our offerings for the wealth management sector, although certain aforementioned trends such as downsizing and cost reduction initiatives, and intensified competition for active trader subscribers have potential to adversely impact our future revenue.

Impact of Foreign Exchange

On a quarterly and annual basis, we calculate the impact of the change in foreign exchange rates between the current reporting period and the respective prior year reporting period. We provide the U.S. dollar impact resulting from the change in foreign exchange rates on current period revenue, cost of services, selling, general and administrative, depreciation, and amortization expenses. We calculate this impact by comparing the average foreign exchange rates for each operating currency for the current reporting period to the average foreign exchange rates for such operating currency for the respective year-ago reporting period. We believe that by providing this information, we are facilitating period-to-period comparisons of our underlying business.

When presenting our results, in addition to presenting U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principals (“GAAP”) results, we ~~use~~apply constant foreign exchange rates ~~in order~~ to ~~view~~show business results without the impact of changing foreign exchange rates. Foreign currency fluctuations are outside our control and the impact on results of operations of currency fluctuations may not be indicative of the underlying performance of the business. Management believes that providing this additional information to investors facilitates period-to-period comparisons of our underlying business and results of operations. Generally, when the U.S. Dollar either strengthens or weakens against other currencies, the growth at constant foreign exchange rates will be higher or lower than growth reported at actual exchange rates. ~~Use~~This presentation of ~~this~~results applying constant foreign exchange ~~rate~~rates is considered ~~Non~~a non-GAAP presentation.

During the three months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2013, amortization expense decreased by $56.07 million, or 1419.43%, to $2927.58 million compared with the three months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2012. The change in foreign exchange rates decreased amortization expense by $0.32 million. Excluding the impact of foreign exchange, amortization expense decreased by $46.7 5 million, or 1318.67%. The decrease in amortization is primarily the result of a $3.5 million decrease due to the ~~following~~change ~~factors:~~in ~~(1)~~ the estimated useful lives of completed technologies related to our in-process development initiatives and a $2.86 million decrease from the impact of several assets which are being amortized using the economic benefit method nearing the end of their useful lives, and therefore having lower amortization rates than in the prior year~~; and (2) a $1~~.7 ~~million decrease due to the change in the estimated useful lives of completed technologies related to our in-process development initiatives.~~ For further information on the extension of the useful lives ~~see~~refer to Note 69 “~~Intangible~~Goodwill ~~Assets~~ and ~~Goodwill~~Intangible Assets” in the ~~Notes~~Condensed ~~to the~~ Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 81 of ~~our~~this ~~Annual~~Quarterly Report on Form 10-~~K for the year ended December 31, 2012~~Q.

Interest Expense

Net interest expense was $34.2 million for the three months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2013 compared with $37.24 million for the three months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2012. The period-over-period decline in interest expense is due to a decrease in the applicable interest rate on our Term Loan Facility as a result of the refinancing of our Term Loan that occurred in February 2013~~, with the lower rate realized for all three months of the second quarter of 2013 and not during the same period in 2012~~. For further information on our Term Loan Facility, see Note 13 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Income Taxes

We determine our periodic income tax expense based on our current forecast of annual income or loss in the respective countries in which we operate and our estimated annual effective tax rate in each tax jurisdiction. The rate is revised, if necessary, at the end of each successive interim period during the fiscal year to our best current estimate of our expected annual effective tax rate. For the three months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2013, our quarterly effective tax rate after discrete items was a 2 103.40% benefit ~~expense~~ as compared to a 905,827.81% ~~expense~~benefit for the three months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2012. The estimated annual effective tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2013 is a 7.9% expense excluding the net discrete expense of $0.1 million for the quarter. The net $0.1 million discrete expense in the three months ended June 30, 2013 was primarily attributable to the tax provision to tax return adjustments with respect to the filing of prior year returns in foreign jurisdictions, and an interest expense charge on tax reserves for unrecognized tax benefits offset by a favorable audit settlement in the US.

~~The~~For ~~change~~the inthree ~~the~~months ~~estimated~~ended September 30, ~~annual~~2013, our quarterly effective tax ~~rates~~rate before discrete items was a 13.3% expense, ~~prior~~compared to ~~the~~a ~~impact~~quarterly ofeffective tax rate before discrete items, of ~~the~~a 73,989.93% ~~expense~~benefit for the ~~six~~three months ended ~~June~~ September 30, ~~2013,~~2012. ~~when~~The estimated ~~compared~~annual ~~with~~effective tax rate for the 47three months ended September 30, 2013 is a 9.67% ~~benefit~~expense excluding discrete items, compared to an estimated annual effective tax rate for the ~~six~~three months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2012 of a 117.9% benefit.

The decrease in amortization is the result of the following factors: (1) a $58.62 million decrease from the impact of several assets which are being amortized using the economic benefit method nearing the end of their useful lives, and therefore having lower amortization rates than in the prior year; ~~and~~ (2) a $15.72 million decrease due to the change in the estimated useful lives of completed technologies related to our in-process development initiatives.; ~~For further~~and ~~information~~(3) a on$0.8 ~~the~~million ~~extension~~decrease ofdue ~~the~~to ~~useful~~assets ~~lives~~that ~~see~~have ~~Note~~become 9fully ~~“Goodwill~~amortized and ~~Intangible~~therefore ~~Assets”~~include a full nine months of amortization in the ~~Notes~~nine tomonths ~~the~~ended ~~Consolidated~~September 30, ~~Condensed~~2012, ~~Financial~~but ~~Statements~~only ~~included~~a infraction ~~Item~~of that amortization for the nine months ended September 130, of2013. ~~this~~For ~~Quarterly~~further ~~Report~~information on ~~Form~~the ~~10-Q,~~extension ~~and~~of the useful lives refer to Note 6 9 “~~Intangible~~Goodwill ~~Assets~~ and ~~Goodwill~~Intangible Assets” in the ~~Notes~~Condensed ~~to the~~ Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 81 of ~~our~~this ~~Annual~~ Quarterly Report on Form 10-~~K for the year ended December 31, 2012~~Q.

Interest Expense

Net interest expense was $69103.46 million for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2013 compared with $75112.04 million for the ~~six~~nine months ~~ended~~ ~~June~~ended September 30, 2012. The period-over-period difference results from lower interest expense ~~related~~as toa result of (1) a decrease in the ~~interest~~applicable ~~rate on our~~ Term Loan ~~Facility~~interest asrate afollowing ~~result of~~ the refinancing of our Term Loan that occurred in February 2013, with the lower rate realized for ~~five~~eight months of the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2013 and not during the same period in 2012; and (2) a decrease due to the write-off ~~in connection with the February 2013 amendment~~ of a portion of the Term Loan original issue discount and deferred financing costs related to the debt extinguishment asin ~~part~~connection ofwith the ~~loss~~February on2013 ~~extinguishment~~amendment. ofThis ~~debt~~write-off ~~instead~~was ofreflected as apart ~~component~~ of ~~interest~~the ~~expense~~loss ~~for~~on extinguishment of debt in the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2013 instead of as a component of interest expense. For further information on our Term Loan Facility, see Note 13 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Loss on Extinguishment of Debt

A loss on extinguishment of debt of $10.2 million was realized during the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2013, with no such activity in the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2012. The loss on extinguishment related to the February 2013 refinancing of our Term Loan. The loss on extinguishment included the write-off of $3.6 million of unamortized debt financing costs, $3.9 million of unamortized original issue discount and $2.7 million of direct issuance costs incurred to complete the February 2013 amendment.

Income Taxes

We determine our periodic income tax expense based on our current forecast of annual income or loss in the respective countries in which we operate and our estimated annual effective tax rate in each tax jurisdiction. The rate is revised, if necessary, at the end of each successive interim period during the fiscal year to our best current estimate of our expected annual effective tax rate. For the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2013, our quarterly effective tax rate after discrete items was a 336.38% benefit as compared to a 17221.98% ~~expense~~benefit for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2012. The estimated annual effective tax rate for the year ending December 31, 2013, as of June 30, 2013 is a 7.9% expense excluding the net discrete benefit of $1.5 million. The net $1.5 million discrete benefit in the six months ended June 30, 2013 was primarily attributable to the 2012 US Research and Development Credit which was extended by The American Taxpayer Relief Act of 2012 (“ATRA”) enacted on January 3, 2013 and the release of tax reserves being partially offset by an interest expense charge on tax reserves for unrecognized tax benefits and tax provision to tax return adjustments with respect to the filing of prior year returns in foreign jurisdictions.

~~The~~43 change in the estimated annual tax rates, prior to the impact of discrete items, of the 7.9% expense for the six months ended June 30, 2013, when compared with the 47.6% benefit for the six months ended June 30, 2012 is primarily related to expected lower losses in the U.S. in 2013 when compared with 2012.

The nine months ended September 30, 2013 included a discrete benefit of $9.6 million. The discrete benefit was primarily attributable to a reduction of the UK tax rate enacted in July 2013 by HMRC which resulted in a $7.8 million benefit during the quarter ended September 30, 2013. The year to date discrete benefit also included a benefit for the 2012 U.S. Research and Development Credit which was extended by ATRA enacted on January 3, 2013, and tax provision to tax return adjustments with respect to the filing of prior year returns in the US and foreign jurisdictions, and the release of tax reserves, being partially offset by an interest expense charge on tax reserves for unrecognized tax benefits.

As of September 30, 2013, we had approximately $12.3 million of net unrecognized tax benefits ($13.2 million on a gross basis) which would affect our effective tax rate if recognized. We believe that it is reasonably possible that approximately $0.3 million of our current remaining net unrecognized tax positions may be recognized within the next twelve months as a result of the lapse of the statute of limitations in various tax jurisdictions.

We recognize net interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions in income tax expense. Net interest and penalties of $0.2 million and $0.5 million were provided in income tax expense for uncertain tax positions for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. As of September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, gross reserves for interest and penalties were $1.2 million and $1.0 million, respectively.

We file federal, state, and foreign income tax returns in jurisdictions with varying statutes of limitations. In the normal course of business, we are subject to examination by taxing authorities in various jurisdictions. Our federal tax returns for the tax years 2008 through 2010 are currently under examination by the Internal Revenue Service. Our state tax returns, for certain states, remain subject to examination for tax years 2006 through 2011.

We recognize future tax benefits or expenses attributable to our taxable temporary differences and net operating loss carry forwards. Recognition of deferred tax assets is subject to our determination that realization is more likely than not. Based on taxable income projections, we believe that the recorded deferred tax assets will be realized.

We were not a U.S. Federal or U.K. cash taxpayer for the year ended December 31, 2012 and we expect we will maintain such status through 2013, based on our results of operations to date and expected results for the remainder of fiscal 2013, including our use of net operating loss carry-forwards in the U.S. and our prepaid tax position in the U.K.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of ~~June~~September 30, 2013, we had cash and cash equivalents of $~~277~~307.76 million, liquid short-term investments of $~~11.~~6.1 million, and had $~~158~~159.94 million available under our Revolving Credit Facility. Of these balances, $~~153~~175.45 million and $~~11.~~6.1 million of our cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments, respectively, were held by our foreign subsidiaries. Our cash needs arise from our debt obligations, the purchase of equipment, improvements of facilities (including investments in our underlying infrastructure to increase the efficiency and capacity of business operations as well as the technology platforms that support our services such as our data centers and ticker plants), working capital requirements, and ~~certain~~ acquisitions. Management believes that our cash and cash equivalents, combined with expected cash flows generated by operating activities, will be ~~sufficient~~ sufficient to meet our operating cash needs for the next several years. Subject to the limitations placed upon us by the covenants under the Senior Secured Credit Facilities and the Indenture governing our Senior Notes due 2018, we will provide Holdings, through the payment of cash dividends, the funds required by Holdings to service the Toggle Notes. During the quarter ended ~~June~~September 30, 2013, weno ~~declared and paid to Holdings the first~~ such ~~dividend~~dividends inwere ~~the~~declared ~~amount~~or ~~of $14~~paid.3 ~~million.~~

When compared with the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2012, net cash provided by operating activities increased by $3641.41 million, or 52 40.71%, to $~~105~~143.36 million in the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2013. The increase in operating cash flow in the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2013 compared with the same period in 2012 primarily related to the following factors: (1) aan $98.8 million increase in cash flows due to a decrease in incentive compensation payments; (2) an advance customer payment of $7.7 million for hardware; and (3) a $4.6.4 million increase in cash flows related to a decrease in cash interest paid, due to lower interest rates resulting from the refinancing of the Term Loan Facility. The remaining change of $1418.32 million is due to higher cash generation driven by increased profitability in 2013 compared to 2012, coupled with a net decrease in other non-cash working capital accounts.

Investing Activities

When compared with the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2012, net cash used in investing activities decreased by $2834.97 million, or 5849.59%, to to $2034.58 million in the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2013. ~~The~~This decrease is primarily due to (1) the ~~recognition~~purchase of ~~net~~$3.3 ~~proceeds~~million ~~from~~in ~~the purchase/sale of~~ short-term investments ~~of $10.9 million~~ in the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2013, compared with purchases of $23.5 ~~recognition~~million in short-term investments in the same period in 2012; (2) proceeds from maturities and sales of ~~net~~short-term ~~payments~~investments of $1720.51 million in the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, ~~2012~~2013, with no such activity in the same period in 2012; and (3) the receipt of $2.5 million of insurance settlement proceeds in the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2013 related to our 2012 claim associated with property and equipment that was damaged due to the impacts of Hurricane Sandy. This decrease is partially offset by an increase in purchases of property and equipment of $28.01 million inprimarily ~~purchases~~related ofto ~~property~~technical ~~and~~infrastructure ~~equipment~~initiatives in the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2013. when compared with the same period in 2012.

We have no material capital expenditure commitments.

Financing Activities

When compared with the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2012, net cash used in financing activities decreased by $128.18 million, or 3726.47%, to $2024.30 million in the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2013. The change is due to lower principal payments on the Term Loan Facility in the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2013 as compared to those made in the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2012. There was one Term Loan principal payment of $3.7 million made in the first quarter of 2013 which was the annual excess cash flow mandatory prepayment (“ECF”) payment related to 2012, and the first quarterly Term Loan principal installment of $2.9 million was made in the third quarter of 2013. Comparatively, in the first quarter of 2012, the ECF payment related to 2011 was $32.3 million, and no other principal installments were made. The reduction in the 2013 ECF payment when compared with the 2012 ECF payment is based on our achievement of certain leverage ratios in 2013 that reduced the amount required as an ECF payment in 2013 coupled with a higher percentage of ECF payment refusals in 2013. The smaller ~~ECF~~principal ~~payment~~payments during 2013 ~~was~~were offset by (1) $14.3 million of a dividend payment to Holdings, which was used by Holdings to make its June 15 interest payment on the Toggle Notes, and (2) $1.0 million of debt issuance costs, net of debt proceeds, in the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2013 which were related to the February 2013 Term Loan Facility refinancing, for which there was no similar activity in 2012.

The various covenants of our debt agreements, including our Senior Secured Credit Facilities and the indenture governing the Senior Notes, restrict our ability to pay dividends. Any future determination to pay dividends will depend upon, among other factors, our results of operations, financial conditions, capital requirements, any contractual restrictions and any other considerations our Board deems relevant, and would require consent of our lenders.

Debt

Overview

On February 6, 2013, we completed a refinancing of our Senior Secured Credit Facilities through a second amendment to the credit agreement (the “Amendment”). The Amendment provides for, among other things, the following:

•

a reduction of our LIBOR borrowing rate from LIBOR plus 3.25% to LIBOR plus 2.75%;

•

a reduction of the LIBOR floor from 1.25% to 1.00%; and

•

an extension of the commencement date for amortization payments on the Term Loan Facility to June 30, 2013 (not giving consideration to application of the 2012 ECF payment).

Interest Rate and Fees

Borrowings under the Term Loan Facility bear interest at a rate equal to, at our option, either (a) the LIBOR rate plus an applicable margin or (b) the highest of (1) the prime commercial lending rate publicly announced by Bank of America as the “prime rate,” (2) the federal funds effective rate plus 0.50% and (3) the one-month LIBOR rate plus 1.00%, plus an applicable margin. Regardless of whether actual LIBOR rates fall below 1.00% (as they have in recent periods), for purposes of determining the Term Loan Facility interest rate, the LIBOR rate is subject to a floor of 1.00%. Prior to the February 2013 refinancing, the LIBOR applicable margin was 3.25%. Following the February 2013 refinancing, the applicable margin is 2.75%. The highest of the three rates in (b) was 5.00% for the quarter ended ~~June~~September 30, 2013. Since the inception of the Term Loan Facility, we have elected the three-month LIBOR rate. At ~~June~~September 30, 2013, the Term Loan Facility interest rate was 3.75%, composed of a LIBOR floor of 1.00% plus an applicable margin of 2.75%. As noted above, we designated as accounting hedges three interest rate caps related to Term Loan Facility with notional amounts of $~~575~~450.0 million at ~~June~~September 30, 2013. Refer to Note 14, “Derivatives” and to Note 13 “Debt” in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for additional information.

In September 2010, we designated as accounting hedges three forward starting interest rate caps related to the Senior Secured Credit Facilities with notional amounts up to $700.0 million declining to $450.0 million over three years, to receive interest at variable rates equal to LIBOR and pay interest at fixed rates of 2.00% starting on September 30, 2011 and increasing to 4.00% by September 30, 2014. On September 28, 2012, the notional amount of our interest rate caps was reduced from $700.0 million to $575.0 million and the fixed rate interest rate increased from 2.00% to 2.50%. On March 28, 2013 the fixed interest rate increased from 2.50% to 3.00%. The notional amount ~~will~~was be further reduced to $450.0 million on September 30, 2013. The interest rate caps became effective on September 30, 2011; however, because the cap strike price is higher than the 3 month LIBOR, there was no impact on the interest rate during the quarter ended ~~June~~September 30, 2013. Refer to Note 13 “Debt” in the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for additional information. As part of the refinancing of our Term Loan Facility we reevaluated the interest rate cap agreements and determined that the hedging relationship remained highly effective. In addition to paying interest on outstanding principal amounts, we are required to pay the lenders a commitment fee of 0.75% per annum on the unutilized commitment of the Revolving Credit Facility. The commitment fee percentage may be reduced to 0.50% subject to us reducing our total leverage ratio to 5.0:1.0. As of ~~June~~September 30, 2013, our total leverage ratio was below 5.0:1.0, resulting in a commitment fee percentage of 0.50%.

Installment Payments under the Term Loan Facility

The Term Loan Facility amortizes in equal quarterly installments in aggregate annual amounts equal to 1% of the funded principal amount of the refinanced Term Loan Facility, or $3.3 million per quarter, beginning with the quarter ended ~~June~~September 30, 2013 (subject to the application of the 2012 ~~annual excess cash flow mandatory prepayment (“~~ECF payment”) described below, with the balance being payable on the final maturity date. Giving consideration to the 2012 ECF payment, the first quarterly principal installment of the refinanced Term Loan in the amount of $2.9 million iswas due and paid on September 30, 2013. During the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2013, we made a $3.7 million principal payment related to the 2012 ECF payment. This amount was applied to satisfy the first quarter principal installment of $3.3 million and reduced the second quarter principal installment by $0.4 million.

Prepayments

The Senior Secured Credit Facilities contain certain mandatory prepayment requirements. These include: (i) a percentage of annual excess cash flow, (ii) payments related to certain asset sales and (iii) payments of the cash proceeds of certain types of newly incurred debt. Determination of any mandatory prepayment amount is based on pre-established formulas as set forth in the credit agreement. The determination of the 2012 ECF payment was made as of and for our fiscal year ended December 31, 2012, with the ECF payment due 90 days from that date. Because we achieved a total leverage ratio of 4.7:1.0, the required payment percentage of 2012 ECF payment was stepped down from 50.0% of ECF to 25.0% of ECF. The 2011 ECF payment percentage was 50%. The amount determined to be payable as ECF payments at December 31, 2012 was $20.3 million and accordingly was reflected as current in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of December 31, 2012.

In accordance with the terms of the credit agreement, the accepted balances of ECF payments are applied toward future scheduled quarterly principal installments in direct order of maturity. As a result of the actual amounts paid related to our fiscal year 2012 ECF, scheduled quarterly principal payments due on its refinanced Term Loan Facility are deferred until September 30, 2013 as discussed above. The amount that may be payable as an excess cash flow payment in 2014 cannot currently be reliably estimated and therefore no portion of our outstanding debt from its Senior Secured Credit Facilities related to this provision is reflected as current for the quarter ended June 30, 2013.

We may voluntarily repay the outstanding loans under the Senior Secured Credit Facilities at any time without premium or penalty, other than customary breakage costs with respect to LIBOR loans and other than a 1% premium in connection with certain repricing transactions consummated within the first six months of the Amendment.

Guarantees

All obligations under the Senior Secured Credit Facilities are unconditionally guaranteed by Intermediate and each of our existing and subsequently acquired or organized direct or indirect wholly-owned domestic restricted subsidiaries (subject to certain exceptions). The Senior Secured Credit Facilities contain a number of covenants that, among other things, restrict our ability to incur additional indebtedness, create liens, enter into sale and leaseback transactions, engage in mergers or consolidations, sell or transfer assets, pay dividends and distributions or repurchase its capital stock, make investments, loans or advances, prepay certain subordinated indebtedness, make certain acquisitions, engage in certain transactions with affiliates, amend material agreements governing certain subordinated indebtedness, and change our fiscal year. The Senior Secured Credit Facilities also require us to maintain a maximum senior secured leverage ratio and a minimum cash interest coverage ratio, and contain certain customary affirmative covenants and events of default, including a change of control.

Senior Notes due 2018

On July 29, 2010, we issued $700.0 million of Senior Notes due 2018 bearing annual interest at 10.25% (the “Senior Notes”) of the aggregate principal amount. Interest payments are due semi-annually on February 1 and August 1 of each year until maturity, on August 1, 2018. The first interest payment on the Senior Notes was made on February 1, 2011. ~~Pursuant~~We paid ~~to the terms of the Senior Notes, we made~~ interest payments of $3571.98 million during ~~both~~each of the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2013 and 2012.

The Senior Notes are our senior unsecured obligations that rank senior in right of payment to future debt; rank equally in right of payment with all of our existing and future senior indebtedness; are effectively subordinated in right of payment to our existing and future secured obligations, including indebtedness under our Senior Secured Credit Facilities, to the extent of the value of the assets securing such obligations; and are effectively subordinated in right of payment to all existing and future indebtedness and other liabilities of our non-guarantor subsidiaries (other than indebtedness and liabilities owed to us or one of our guarantor subsidiaries).

Guarantees

The Senior Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by each of our existing and future direct or indirect wholly owned domestic subsidiaries that guarantee our obligations under its Senior Secured Credit Facilities. The indenture contains a number of covenants that, among other things, restrict, subject to certain exceptions, our ability and the ability of our restricted subsidiaries to incur additional debt or issue certain preferred shares, pay dividends on or make other distributions in respect of our capital stock or make other restricted payments, make certain investments, sell or transfer certain assets, create liens on certain assets to secure debt, consolidate, merge, sell or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of the our assets, enter into certain transactions with our affiliates and designate our subsidiaries as unrestricted subsidiaries. The indenture provides for events of default which, if any of them occurs, would permit or require the principal of and accrued interest on the Senior Notes due 2018 to become or to be declared due and payable. The indenture also contains certain customary affirmative covenants pertaining to notice and filings with the Trustee.

Optional Redemption

The Senior Notes are redeemable in whole or in part, at our option, at any time at varying redemption prices that generally include premiums, which are defined in the indenture. Refer to Note 1413, “Debt” in the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for additional information. In addition, upon a change of control, we are required to make an offer to redeem all of the Senior Notes at a redemption price equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest.

Future minimum principal payment obligations due per our Senior Secured Credit Facilities and Senior Notes are as follows (in thousands):

Igloo Holdings Senior PIK Toggle Notes Due 2017

On December 18, 2012, Holdings issued $350.0 million 8.25%/9.00% Senior PIK Toggle Notes (the “Toggle Notes”) which mature on December 15, 2017, pursuant to an indenture, dated as of December 18, 2012 (the “Toggle Notes Indenture”).

The Toggle Notes are structurally subordinated to the Senior Notes and any other indebtedness and other liabilities of ours and other subsidiaries of Holdings. Claims of creditors of ours and such other Holdings subsidiaries, including trade creditors, the Senior Secured Credit Facilities lenders and claims of preferred stockholders will have priority with respect to the assets and earnings over the claims of Holdings’ creditors, including the holders of the Toggle Notes. We, along with our subsidiaries, are not guarantors or obligors of the Toggle Notes. In addition, the Toggle Notes are unsecured. None of our assets, or any of our subsidiaries’ assets, are pledged to secure the Toggle Notes. Holdings is our indirect parent company with no material operations of its own and only limited assets or operations other than the indirect ownership of all of our capital stock. Accordingly, Holdings is dependent upon the distribution of the earnings of its subsidiaries, whether in the form of dividends, advances, payments on account of intercompany obligations or otherwise, to service its debt obligations. Therefore, subject to the limitations placed upon us by our own debt covenants, we will provide Holdings, through the payment of cash dividends, the funds required by Holdings to service the Toggle Notes on at least a semi-annual basis ~~starting with the payment made on June 15, 2013~~. Interest payments on the Toggle Notes are due June 15 and December 15 of each year until maturity. The amount of the semi-annual dividend we will pay Holdings (subject to compliance with our own debt covenants) is $14.4 million, ~~(with~~which ~~the~~is ~~exception~~equal ofto the semi-annual Toggle Note interest payment. The first dividend payment made on June 15, 2013 ~~which~~was ~~equated to~~ $14.3 million due to the interest period not covering a full 6 months~~) which is equal to the semi-annual Toggle Note interest payment~~.

Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (“EBITDA”) and Covenant EBITDA

~~Covenant~~We ~~EBITDA~~calculate ~~as defined in the credit agreement governing the Senior Secured Credit Facilities and the indenture governing the Senior Notes due 2018 is used to determine our compliance with certain covenants.~~ EBITDA ~~is calculated~~ by adding back to GAAP net (loss) income the following items,: interest (and other financing costs), net, income taxes, ~~and~~ depreciation and amortization. We ~~also~~calculate ~~refer to~~ Covenant EBITDA ~~as Pro Forma Adjusted EBITDA (1). Covenant EBITDA is a non-GAAP measure calculated~~ by adding back to EBITDA unusual or non-recurring charges and certain non-cash charges, as well as certain pro forma expected cost savings as permitted under the credit agreement. ~~We believe that presenting~~ Covenant EBITDA is ~~appropriate~~defined toin ~~provide additional~~the ~~information to investors regarding our compliance with our~~ credit agreement. ~~Any~~governing ~~breach of~~ the ~~credit~~Senior ~~agreement~~Secured ~~covenants~~Credit ~~that~~Facilities ~~are~~and ~~based~~the onindenture ~~ratios~~governing ~~involving~~the ~~Covenant~~Senior ~~EBITDA~~Notes ~~could~~due ~~result~~2018 ~~in a default under that agreement,~~ and ~~the~~is ~~lenders could~~used ~~elect~~ to ~~declare~~determine ~~all~~our ~~amounts~~compliance ~~borrowed~~with tocertain ~~be due and payable~~covenants. ~~Any~~We ~~such acceleration would~~ also ~~result~~refer to inCovenant aEBITDA ~~default~~as ~~under~~Pro ~~the~~Forma ~~indenture~~Adjusted EBITDA. ~~Additionally,~~The ~~under~~calculations ~~the~~of ~~debt~~EBITDA ~~agreements, our ability to engage in activities such as incurring additional indebtedness, making investments~~ and ~~paying~~Covenant ~~dividends~~EBITDA is(which ~~also~~are ~~tied~~both toconsidered ~~ratios~~non-GAAP ~~based~~measures) onare ~~Covenant~~as ~~EBITDA.~~follows:

(1)

Our Pro Forma adjusted EBITDA excludes items that are either not part of its ongoing core operations, do not require a cash outlay or are not otherwise expected to recur in the ordinary course, as well as other adjustments permitted under our Senior Secured Credit Facilities. Our Pro Forma adjusted EBITDA measure is based on the definition of EBITDA set forth in the agreements governing our Senior Secured Credit Facilities.

(2) Other non-recurring charges include the impact of the deferred revenue adjustment, the loss on extinguishment of debt ($10.2 million in the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2013), facility consolidation costs and certain severance and retention expenses.

(3)

Other (income) charges, net include insurance recoveries, management fees, earn-out revaluation expense, non-cash foreign exchange expense, acquisition-related adjustments, professional fees related to the registration of our debt securities and other costs. The primary changes from 2012 to 2013 are driven by the non-cash foreign exchange expense and insurance recoveries related to Hurricane Sandy.

(4)

Pro Forma cost savings of up to a maximum of $30 million annually is an adjustment permitted under our credit agreements, as described below, for activities that may include, but are not limited to, the consolidation of a number of legacy organizational silos, technology platforms and content databases.

EBITDA and Covenant EBITDA are not recognized terms under GAAP, and are considered Non-GAAP measures under Item 10 of Regulation S-K. EBITDA and Covenant EBITDA are not intended to be presented as an alternative to GAAP net income or income from continuing operations as a measure of our operating performance or to GAAP cash flows from operating activities as a measure of our liquidity. Additionally, EBITDA and Covenant EBITDA are not a measure of free cash flow available for management’s discretionary use. Certain cash requirements such as interest payments, tax payments and debt service requirements are added back to GAAP net income for the purpose of calculating EBITDA. The presentation of EBITDA and Covenant EBITDA should not be considered in isolation, or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported in accordance with GAAP. We believe EBITDA provides useful information about underlying core business trends as it excludes the results of many decisions that are outside the control of operating management and can differ significantly from company to company depending on, among other things, long-term strategic decisions regarding capital structure, the tax jurisdictions in which companies operate and capital investments. EBITDA and Covenant EBITDA ~~provide~~are ~~useful~~defined ~~information~~in our credit agreement and were contractually agreed between us and our lenders. EBITDA is a critical component of determining Covenant EBITDA (also defined in the credit agreement) which in turn is used to ~~investors~~calculate key credit agreement financial covenants.

the same level in the future. The exclusion of items from Covenant EBITDA is not intended to indicate that management does not believe such items will occur in the future. Covenant EBITDA includes a cost savings allowance related to projected cost savings expected to be achieved in the future. Specifically, Covenant EBITDA can include up to $30.0 million of projected cost savings for specified actions initiated on or prior to July 29, 2012, to the extent we believe such savings will be realized prospectively and are not already realized in EBITDA. The aggregate amount of cost savings added back when determining Covenant EBITDA in any four consecutive quarters is calculated on a pro forma basis as though such cost savings had been realized on the first day of the consecutive four quarter period. EBITDA and Covenant EBITDA are also used by management as measures of liquidity.

Since not all companies use identical EBITDA or Covenant EBITDA calculations, our EBITDA and Covenant EBITDA may not be comparable to other similarly titled metrics used by other companies. We believe the non-GAAP financial measures we provide to investors supplement GAAP results to provide a more complete understanding of the factors and trends affecting our business than GAAP results alone.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of ~~June~~September 30, 2013, we did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

There have been no material changes to our Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates since December 31, 2012.

Commitments and Contingencies

As of ~~June~~September 30, 2013, there have been no material changes to our commitments and contingencies since December 31, 2012, except for the refinancing of the Term Loan Facility in connection with the Senior Secured Credit Facility. Refer to Note 13 “Debt” in the Notes to the Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 1. (See Note 20 in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 8 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012.)

In connection with the provision of services in the ordinary course of business, we ~~often~~may ~~make~~be ~~representations~~required ~~affirming,~~to ~~among other~~indemnify ~~things,~~customers against third-party claims that our services ~~do not~~ infringe onupon ~~the~~such ~~intellectual property rights of others and agree to indemnify customers against~~ third-party’s ~~claims~~intellectual ~~for~~property ~~such infringement~~rights. We have not been required to make material payments under such provisions. We are involved in litigation and are the subject of claims made from time to time, including with respect to intellectual property rights. A portion of the defense and/or settlement costs in some such cases is covered by various commercial liability insurance policies. In other cases, the defense and/or settlement costs are paid from our existing cash resources. In addition, our third-party data suppliers audit us from time to time in the ordinary course of business (including audits underway) to determine if data we license for redistribution has been properly accounted for in accordance with the terms of the applicable license agreement. In view of our financial condition and the accruals established for related matters, management does not believe that the ultimate liability, if any, related to any of these matters will have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

Seasonality and Market Activity

Historically, we have not experienced any material seasonal fluctuations in our business and we do not expect to experience seasonal fluctuations in the future. However, financial information market demand is largely dependent upon activity levels in the securities markets. In the event that the U.S. or international financial markets were to suffer a prolonged downturn that results in a significant decline in investor activity in trading securities, our sales and revenue could be adversely affected. This was the case with regard to the recent global financial crisis, which did adversely affect our sales and revenue results, as further described in management’s discussion and analysis of financial results for current and prior periods. Our exposure in the United States in this area could be mitigated in part by our service offerings in non-U.S. markets, and vice versa.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

Intangibles – Goodwill and Other

In July 2012, the FASB issued ASU 2012-02, “Testing Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets for Impairment” (“ASU 2012-02”), regarding ASC Topic 350, “Intangibles – —Goodwill and Other”. ASU 2012-02 allows an entity the option of first assessing qualitative factors to determine whether the existence of events or circumstances leads to a determination that it is more likely than not that the fair value of an indefinite-lived intangible asset is less than its carrying value. Under the provisions of ASU 2012-02, if after assessing the totality of the events or circumstances, an entity determines that it is not more likely than not that the fair value of an indefinite-lived intangible asset is less than its carrying value, performance of an annual impairment test is unnecessary. ASU 2012-02 is effective for fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2012 with early adoption permitted under certain circumstances. ASU 2012-02 became effective for us on January 1, 2013 and did not have a material impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Comprehensive Income

In February 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-02, “Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income” (“ASU 2013-02”), regarding ASC Topic 220 “Comprehensive Income.” ASU 2013-02 requires an entity to report the effect of significant reclassifications out of accumulated other comprehensive income on the respective line items in net income if the amount being reclassified is required under GAAP to be reclassified in its entirety to net income. For other amounts that are not required under GAAP to be reclassified in their entirety to net income in the same reporting period, an entity is required to cross-reference to other disclosures required under GAAP that provide additional detail about those amounts such as in cases where a portion of the amount reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income is reclassified to a balance sheet account instead of directly to income or expense in the same reporting period. ASU 2013-02 became effective for us on January 1, 2013 and did not have a material impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Liabilities

In February 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-04, “Obligations Resulting from Joint and Several Liability Arrangements for Which the Total Amount of the Obligation Is Fixed at the Reporting Date” (“ASU 2013-04”), regarding ASC Topic 405 “Liabilities.” ASU 2013-04 requires an entity to measure obligations resulting from joint and several liability arrangements for which the total amount of the obligation within the scope of the guidance is fixed at the reporting date, as a sum of 1) the amount the reporting entity agreed to pay on the basis of its arrangement among its co-obligors, and 2) any additional amount the reporting entity expects to pay on behalf of its co-obligors. This update also requires the entity to disclose the nature and amount of the obligation as well as other information about the obligation. For public filers, ASU 2013-04 is effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those years that begin after December 15, 2013, with early adoption permitted, and must be applied retrospectively to all prior periods presented. We are currently evaluating the impact, if any, the adoption of ASU 2013-04 will have on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

information about the obligation. ASU 2013-04 is effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those years that begin after December 15, 2013, with early adoption permitted, and must be applied retrospectively to all prior periods presented. We are currently evaluating the impact, if any, the adoption of ASU 2013-04 will have on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Foreign Currency Matters

In March 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-05, “Parent’s Accounting for the Cumulative Translation Adjustment upon Derecognition of Certain Subsidiaries or Groups of Assets within a Foreign Entity or of an Investment in a Foreign Entity” (“ASU 2013-05”), regarding ASC Topic 830 “Foreign Currency Matters.” ASU 2013-05 states that when a parent ceases to have a controlling financial interest in a subsidiary or group of assets that is a nonprofit activity or a business within a foreign entity, the parent is required to release any related cumulative translation adjustment into net income. This should be done only if the sale or transfer results in the complete or substantially complete liquidation of the foreign entity in which the subsidiary or group of assets had resided. For an equity method investment that is a foreign entity, partial sale guidance still applies, which requires a pro rata portion of the cumulative translation adjustment to be released into net income upon a partial sale of such an equity method investment. ASU 2013-05 also clarifies the fact that the sale of an investment in a foreign entity includes both 1) events that result in the loss of a controlling financial interest in a foreign entity and 2) events that result in an acquirer obtaining control of an acquiree in which it held an equity interest immediately before the acquisition date. Upon the occurrence of either of these events, the cumulative translation adjustment should be released into net income. ~~For public filers,~~ ASU 2013-05 is effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those years that begin after December 15, 2013, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact, if any, the adoption of ASU 2013-05 will have on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Basis of Presentation

In April 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-07, “Liquidation Basis of Accounting” (“ASU 2013-07”), regarding ASC Topic 205 “Presentation of Financial Statements.” ASU 2013-07 requires an entity to prepare its financial statements using the liquidation basis of accounting when liquidation is imminent. Additionally, ASU 2013-07 requires financial statements prepared using the liquidation basis of accounting to present relevant information about an entity’s expected resources in liquidation by measuring and presenting assets at the amount of the expected cash proceeds from liquidation, including the presentation of any items it had not previously recognized under U.S. GAAP but that it expects to either sell in liquidation or use in settling liabilities (for example, trademarks). Finally, ASU 2013-07 requires disclosures about an entity’s plan for liquidation, the methods and significant assumptions used to measure assets and liabilities, the type and amount of costs and income accrued, and the expected duration of the liquidation process. ASU 2013-07 is effective for entities that determine liquidation is imminent during annual periods beginning after December 15, 2013, and interim reporting periods therein, with early adoption permitted, and must be applied prospectively from the day that liquidation becomes imminent. We are currently evaluating the impact, if any, the adoption of ASU 2013-07 will have on our basis of presentation.

Derivatives and Hedging

In July 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-10, “Inclusion of the Fed Funds Effective Swap Rate (or Overnight Index Swap Rate) as a Benchmark Interest Rate for Hedge Accounting Purposes” (“ASU 2013-10”), regarding ASC Topic 815 “Derivatives and Hedging.” ASU 2013-10 permits companies to use the Fed Funds Effective Swap Rate (OIS) as a U.S. benchmark interest rate for hedge accounting purposes under Topic 815, in addition to the interest rates on direct Treasury obligations of the U.S. government (UST) and the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR). ASU 2013-10 also removes the restriction on using different benchmark rates for similar hedges. ASU 2013-10 is effective for entities prospectively, and must be applied for qualifying new or redesignated hedging relationships entered into on or after July 17, 2013. We have determined that the adoption of ASU 2013-10 did not have a material impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Income Taxes

In July 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-11, “Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit When a Net Operating Loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss, or a Tax Credit Carryforward Exists” (“ASU 2013-11”), regarding ASC Topic 740 “Income Taxes.” ASU 2013-11 provides explicit guidance on the presentation of unrecognized tax benefits, as well as provides guidance on how an entity should settle at the reporting date any additional income taxes that would result from the disallowance of a tax position when net operating loss carryforwards, similar tax losses, or tax credit carryforwards exist. For public filers, ASU 2013-11 is effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those years that begin after December 15, 2013, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact, if any, the adoption of ASU 2013-11 will have on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Item 3.

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

Foreign Currency Risk

A portion of our business is conducted outside the United States through our foreign subsidiaries and branches. We have foreign currency exposure related to operations in international markets where we transact business in foreign currencies and, accordingly, we are subject to exposure from adverse movements in foreign currency exchange rates. Our foreign subsidiaries maintain their accounting records in their respective local currencies. Consequently, changes in currency exchange rates may impact the translation of foreign statements of operations into U.S. Dollars, which may in turn affect our consolidated statements of operations. Currently, our primary exposure to foreign currency exchange rate risk rests with the U.K. Pound and the Euro to U.S. Dollar exchange rates due to the significant size of our operations in Europe. The effect of foreign exchange on our business historically has varied from quarter to quarter and may continue to do so.

For the periods presented, total revenue and long lived assets by geographic region outside the United States, is as follows (in thousands):

Interest Rate Risk

We have interest rate risk due to our Term Loan Facility which is variable -rate debt. As of ~~June~~September 30, 2013, we had $1.~~301~~3 billion of Term Loan Facility debt under our Senior Secured Credit Facilities, which bears interest based on a floating rate index. In order to mitigate this risk, we entered into forward starting interest rate caps that hedged the exposure on $700.0 million of this debt beginning September 30, 2011, which decreased to $575.0 million on September 30, 2012, ~~decreases~~further decreased to $450.0 million on September 30, 2013 and will decrease to zero on September 30, 2014. Although the relevant floating interest rate was 0.2725% at ~~June~~September 30, 2013, our minimum interest rate is set at 1.00% (plus an applicable percentage). The current interest rate is 3.75% (1.00% floor plus an applicable percentage of 2.75%). An increase of 1% in our variable rate above our ~~June~~September 30, 2013 rate of 3.75% would increase our interest expense over the subsequent four-quarter period by approximately $13.1 million. As of ~~June~~September 30, 2013, approximately 4435% of ~~this~~our total outstanding variable-rate debt exposure is hedged ~~with~~by the interest rate caps. Please refer to Note 14 “Derivatives” and Note 13 “Debt” in the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for further discussion of our debt and derivatives.
