ITEM 7.01. Regulation FD Disclosure
As
previously announced, on April 30, 2008, IHS Inc., a Delaware corporation,
held its scheduled Investor Day conference in New York City. The conference was webcast live and an
archived replay of the conference will be available for approximately six
months at http://www.ihs.com under the Investor Relations section.
During
the conference, IHS reaffirmed its 2008 guidance. Significant highlights of the guidance
included expectations of all-in revenue growth in the 21 to 23% range, adjusted
EBITDA growth of 26 to 28%, depreciation and amortization expense of
approximately $39 to 40 million, and net interest income of approximately $3 to
4 million. The reaffirmed 2008 guidance
assumed an anticipated effective tax rate of approximately 33%, and excluded
the effect of any additional acquisitions to be made in 2008. It also assumed an expected weighted average
diluted shares of approximately 63 million and stock-based compensation expense
of approximately $45 to $50 million.
Certain
statements made by executives at the conference, as well as the foregoing
statement in this Current Report on Form 8-K, contain forward-looking
statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of
1933, as amended. Forward-looking
statements are subject to various risks and uncertainties that could cause
actual results and developments to differ materially from such statements. These risks and uncertainties include those
discussed or identified by IHS from time to time in its public filings. A number of factors could cause the companys
actual results, performance, achievements, or industry results to be materially
different from any future results, performance, or achievements expressed or
implied by these forward-looking statements. Due to these uncertainties and risks, readers
of this Current Report on Form 8-K and persons who view the Investor Day conference
presentations are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such forward-looking
statements, which speak only as of April 30, 2008. IHS disclaims any duty to update guidance or
any other forward-looking statement provided in this Current Report on Form 8-K
or in the presentations made by the company at the Investor Day conference to
reflect subsequent events, actual results, or changes in the companys
expectations.
This
information shall not be deemed filed for purposes of Section 18 of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act), or
incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended, or the Exchange Act, except as shall be expressly set forth by
specific reference in such a filing.
