“After a strong third quarter, Broadridge remains well-positioned to deliver on its full year guidance,” said Rich Daly, Broadridge’s President and Chief Executive Officer. “We reported very healthy revenue growth, driven by the acquisition of NACC and organic growth of our recurring fee revenues, and double digit Adjusted operating income and Adjusted EPS growth. I am also pleased by the continued record results in Closed sales, which should contribute to Broadridge’s growth over 2018 and beyond.”
“Our strong results, coupled with the stability of our business model, have enabled us to balance rewarding our long-term shareholders in the form of a strong and growing dividend and share buybacks, while making investments to enhance our business. In total, we returned $140 million to shareholders in the third quarter, while making a small tuck-in acquisition to strengthen our GTO segment.”
“As we near the end of our fiscal year, we are reaffirming our fiscal year 2017 guidance for our key metrics. Our guidance, which calls for recurring fee revenue growth of 29% to 31%, Adjusted EPS growth of 12% to 17%, and Closed sales in the range of $140 million to $180 million, puts Broadridge right on track to achieve the three year financial objectives we set in December 2014,” Mr. Daly concluded.

("NACC") contributing $277 million.
Recurring fee revenues rose 30% to $592 million from $455 million. The increase in recurring fee revenues reflected organic growth of 4%, including 5% from Net New Business partially offset by negative 1% internal growth. Acquisitions accounted for the remainder of the increase, including $111 million from the acquisition of NACC.
Distribution revenues rose $172 million, or 85%, to $376 million, largely driven by the acquisition of NACC. Event-driven revenues increased 26% to $61 million from $48 million. Changes in foreign currency rates lowered Broadridge's total revenue by $2 million as compared to the prior year period.

For the third quarter of fiscal year 2017:

Interest Expense and Other non-operating Income/Expenses
Interest expense, net for the third quarter of fiscal year 2017 was $11 million, an increase of $4 million, or 66%, compared to $7 million for the prior year period. The increase was primarily due to higher interest expense driven by higher indebtedness.
Other non-operating income, net was $7 million, an increase of $8 million compared to Other non-operating expenses, net of $1 million for the prior year period. The third quarter of fiscal year 2017 includes a $9 million non-cash, nontaxable gain on investment from the acquisition of Message Automation Limited (the "MAL investment gain").

ICS recurring fee revenues in the third quarter of fiscal year 2017 rose $126 million, or 48%, to $389 million.

ICS distribution revenues rose $172 million, or 85%, to $376 million. Event-driven revenues increased $12 million to $61 million, largely as a result of higher mutual fund proxy volumes.
Position growth, which is a component of internal growth, was 5% for mutual fund and ETF interims and 6% for annual equity proxy communications.

Global Technology and Operations ("GTO")
GTO revenues for the third quarter of fiscal year 2017 increased $11 million, or 6%, to $203 million, compared to $191 million in the prior year period.

Excluding the impact of the APTP re-contracting in the prior year period, internal growth was essentially flat.
GTO earnings before income taxes rose $4 million, or 10%, to $44 million, reflecting strong revenue growth and recent efficiency initiatives. Pre-tax margins increased by 0.9 percentage points to 21.9%.

Investor Communication Solutions

Position growth compared to the same period in the prior year, was 3% for mutual fund interims and 3% for annual equity proxy communications.
ICS earnings before income taxes declined $22 million, or 15%, to $125 million. The decline was primarily due to higher operating expenses, which includes higher amortization related to the acquisitions of NACC and the Inveshare technology assets and lower event-driven fee revenues.

Global Technology and Operations
GTO revenues for the nine months fiscal 2017 increased $44 million, or 8%, to $592 million, compared to $548 million in the prior year period.

Explanation and Reconciliation of the Company’s Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The Company’s results in this press release are presented in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") except where otherwise noted. In certain circumstances, results have been presented that are not generally accepted accounting principles measures (“Non-GAAP”). These Non-GAAP measures are Adjusted Operating income, Adjusted Operating income margin, Adjusted Net earnings, Adjusted earnings per share, and Free cash flow. These Non-GAAP financial measures should be viewed in addition to, and not as a substitute for, the Company’s reported results.
The Company believes our Non-GAAP financial measures help investors understand how management plans, measures and evaluates the Company’s business performance. Management believes that Non-GAAP measures provide consistency in its financial reporting and facilitates investors’ understanding of the Company’s operating results and trends by providing an additional basis for comparison. Management uses these Non-GAAP financial measures to, among other things, evaluate our ongoing operations, for internal planning and forecasting purposes and in the calculation of performance-based compensation. In addition, and as a consequence of the importance of these Non-GAAP financial measures in managing our business, the Company’s Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors incorporates Non-GAAP financial measures in the evaluation process for determining management compensation.
Adjusted Operating Income, Adjusted Operating Income Margin, Adjusted Net Earnings and Adjusted Earnings per Share
These Non-GAAP measures reflect Operating income, Operating income margin, Net earnings, and Diluted earnings per share, as adjusted to exclude the impact of certain costs, expenses, gains and losses and other specified items that management believes are not indicative of our ongoing operating performance. These adjusted measures exclude the impact of Amortization of Acquired Intangibles and Purchased Intellectual Property, Acquisition and Integration Costs and the MAL investment gain. Amortization of Acquired Intangibles and Purchased Intellectual Property represents non-cash expenses associated with the Company's acquisition activities. Acquisition and Integration Costs represent certain transaction and integration costs associated with the Company’s acquisition activities.
We exclude Amortization of Acquired Intangibles and Purchased Intellectual Property, Acquisition and Integration Costs and the MAL investment gain from these measures because excluding such information provides us with an understanding of the results from the primary operations of our business and these items do not reflect ordinary operations or earnings. Management believes these measures may be useful to an investor in evaluating the underlying operating performance of our business.
Free Cash Flow
In addition to the Non-GAAP financial measures discussed above, we provide Free cash flow information because we consider Free cash flow to be a liquidity measure that provides useful information to management and investors about the amount of cash generated that could be used for dividends, share repurchases, strategic acquisitions and other discretionary investments. Free cash flow is a Non-GAAP financial measure and is defined by the Company as Net cash flows provided by operating activities less Capital expenditures and Software purchases and capitalized internal use software.
Reconciliations of such Non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable financial measures presented in accordance with GAAP can be found in the tables that are part of this press release.
