Black Knight Reports Second Quarter 2023 Financial Results

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – August 3, 2023 – Black Knight, Inc. (NYSE: BKI), a leading provider of software, data and analytics solutions to the mortgage and consumer loan, real estate and capital markets verticals, today announced unaudited financial results for the second quarter and the six months ended June 30, 2023, as compared to the prior year periods.

Commentary:

Black Knight Executive Chairman Anthony Jabbour said, “Our second quarter results were solid in the face of a very challenging operating environment. As we look ahead to the balance of the year, we remain focused on executing our strategic initiatives and improving the company’s performance, yet we acknowledge that market conditions remain uncertain. As such, we remain steadfast in our focus to control what we can control and provide innovative solutions and exceptional service to our clients to drive shareholder value over the long-term.”

Black Knight Chief Executive Officer Joe Nackashi added, “Our second quarter results reflect a weaker than expected mortgage market coupled with the near-term effects of the proposed merger with Intercontinental Exchange. Revenue declined 4% on an organic basis driven by lower origination volumes as well as indirect effects of the mortgage market on our Originations Software business. We remain very optimistic about our long-term growth opportunities and commitment to creating value for all stakeholders. I want to thank my Black Knight colleagues for their focus and contributions and our clients for the trust they place in us to help them achieve their strategic goals.”

ICE Transaction

On May 4, 2022, we entered into a definitive agreement to be acquired by Intercontinental Exchange, Inc. (“ICE”) (the “Original Merger Agreement”) a leading global provider of data, technology, and market infrastructure. On March 7, 2023, we entered into Amendment No. 1 to the Original Merger Agreement (the “Amendment” and the Original Merger Agreement, as amended by the Amendment, the “Merger Agreement”), which provides for, among other things, a reduction in the merger consideration, valuing Black Knight at $75.00 per share, or a market value of $11.7 billion, with consideration in the form of a mix of approximately $68.00 per share in cash and stock with an exchange ratio of 0.0682 based on ICE’s 10-day volume weighted average price as of March 3, 2023 of $102.62 (the “ICE Transaction”). The ICE Transaction is expected to close in the third or fourth quarter of 2023, subject to regulatory clearance and the satisfaction of customary closing conditions.

In connection with entering into the Amendment, on March 7, 2023, we entered into an Equity Purchase Agreement (the “Empower Divestiture Agreement”) with Constellation Web Solutions Inc., a subsidiary of Constellation Software Inc. (“Constellation”) and (solely for the purposes set forth in the Empower Divestiture Agreement) ICE, pursuant to which, after the closing of the ICE Transaction, Constellation will purchase our Empower^®LOS business, including its Exchange^SM, LendingSpace and AIVA solutions (the “Empower Divestiture Transaction”).

On July 14, 2023, we entered into an Equity Purchase Agreement (the “OB Divestiture Agreement”) with a subsidiary of Constellation, and (solely for the purposes set forth in the OB Divestiture Agreement) ICE, pursuant to which, after the closing of the ICE Transaction, Constellation will purchase our Optimal Blue business (the “OB Divestiture Transaction”).

Each of the Empower Divestiture Agreement and the OB Divestiture Agreement was entered into in order to address certain alleged antitrust concerns raised by the United States Federal Trade Commission (“FTC”) regarding the ICE Transaction and each is subject to customary closing conditions, including but not limited to the prior completion of the ICE Transaction.

Business Outlook

As a result of the proposed ICE Transaction, Black Knight has suspended the practice of providing forward-looking guidance. In addition, Black Knight will not be hosting a conference call related to its second quarter 2023 financial results.

Definitions of non-GAAP financial measures and the reconciliations to the most directly comparable GAAP measures are provided in subsequent sections of the press release narrative and supplemental schedules.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This earnings release contains non-GAAP financial measures, including Organic revenue, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, Adjusted operating income, Adjusted operating margin, Adjusted net earnings and Adjusted EPS. These are important financial measures for us but are not financial measures as defined by generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). The presentation of this financial information is not intended to be considered in isolation of or as a substitute for, or superior to, the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP.

We use these non-GAAP financial measures for financial and operational decision making and as a means to evaluate period-to-period comparisons. We believe these measures provide useful information about operating results, enhance the overall understanding of past financial performance and future prospects and allow for greater transparency with respect to key metrics used by management in its financial and operational decision making, including determining a portion of executive compensation. We also present these non-GAAP financial measures because we believe investors, analysts and rating agencies consider them useful in measuring our ability to meet our debt service obligations. By disclosing these non-GAAP financial measures, we believe we offer investors a greater understanding of, and an enhanced level of transparency into, the means by which our management operates the company.

Revenues, EBITDA, EBITDA margin, Operating income and Operating margin for the Software Solutions and Data and Analytics segments are presented in conformity with Accounting Standards Codification Topic 280, Segment Reporting. These measures are reported to the chief operating decision maker for purposes of making decisions about allocating resources to the segments and assessing their performance.

Statements that are not historical facts, including statements regarding expectations, hopes, intentions or strategies regarding the future are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are based on Black Knight management's beliefs, as well as assumptions made by, and information currently available to, them. Because such statements are based on expectations as to future financial and operating results and are not statements of fact, actual results may differ materially from those projected. Black Knight undertakes no obligation to update any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. The risks and uncertainties that forward-looking statements are subject to include, but are not limited to: the occurrence of any event, change, or other circumstance that could give rise to a right in favor of Intercontinental Exchange, Inc. (“ICE”) or us to terminate the definitive merger agreement governing the terms and conditions of the proposed acquisition by ICE of Black Knight (the “ICE Transaction”); the possibility that the proposed ICE Transaction, Empower® divestiture transaction or the Optimal Blue divestiture transaction do not close when expected or at all because required regulatory or other approvals and other conditions to closing are not received or satisfied on a timely basis or at all (and the risk that such approvals may result in the imposition of conditions that could adversely affect ICE or us or the expected benefits of the proposed ICE Transaction); the outcome of the United States Federal Trade Commission’s (the “FTC”) lawsuits filed against us and ICE seeking to block the consummation of the ICE Transaction and of any other legal proceedings that may be instituted against us or ICE; business uncertainties and contractual restrictions while the ICE Transaction is pending, which could adversely affect our business and operations; the diversion of management’s attention and time from ongoing business operations and opportunities on merger-related matters; changes to our relationships with our top clients, whom we rely on for a significant portion of our revenues and profit; our ability to comply with or changes to the laws, rules and regulations that affect our and our clients’ businesses; our ability to adapt our solutions to technological changes or evolving industry standards or to achieve our growth strategies; increase in the availability of free or relatively inexpensive information; our ability to protect our proprietary software and information rights; our dependence on our ability to access data from external sources; delays or difficulty in developing or implementing new, enhanced or existing software, data or hosting solutions; changes in general economic, business, regulatory and political conditions, particularly as they affect the mortgage industry; risks associated with the recruitment and retention of our skilled workforce; impacts to our business operations caused by the occurrence of a catastrophe or global crisis; our investment in Dun & Bradstreet Holdings, Inc.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures This presentation contains non-GAAP financial measures, including Organic revenue, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, Adjusted operating income, Adjusted operating margin, Adjusted net earnings and Adjusted EPS. These are important financial measures for us but are not financial measures as defined by generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). The presentation of this financial information is not intended to be considered in isolation of or as a substitute for, or superior to, the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP. We use these non-GAAP financial measures for financial and operational decision making and as a means to evaluate period-to-period comparisons. We believe these measures provide useful information about operating results, enhance the overall understanding of past financial performance and future prospects and allow for greater transparency with respect to key metrics used by management in its financial and operational decision making, including determining a portion of executive compensation. We also present these non-GAAP financial measures because we believe investors, analysts and rating agencies consider them useful in measuring our ability to meet our debt service obligations. By disclosing these non-GAAP financial measures, we believe we offer investors a greater understanding of, and an enhanced level of transparency into, the means by which our management operates the company. These non-GAAP financial measures are not measures presented in accordance with GAAP, and our use of these terms may vary from that of others in our industry. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered as an alternative to revenues, operating income, operating margin, net earnings, net earnings per share, net earnings margin or any other measures derived in accordance with GAAP as measures of operating performance or liquidity. Reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are presented in the attached schedules. See the Appendix for further information.

11 Non-GAAP Financial Measures Organic revenue – We define Organic revenue as the change in Revenues for the current period compared to an adjusted revenue base for the prior period, which is adjusted to add pre-acquisition revenues of acquired businesses for the portion of the prior year matching the portion of the current year that we owned the acquired businesses, and subtract pre-divestiture revenues for divested businesses for the portion of the prior year matching the portion of the current year for which the business was not owned. Adjusted EBITDA – We define Adjusted EBITDA as Net earnings attributable to Black Knight, with adjustments to reflect the addition or elimination of certain statement of earnings items including, but not limited to: (i) Depreciation and amortization; (ii) Impairment charges; (iii) Interest expense, net; (iv) Income tax expense; (v) Other (income) expense, net; (vi) Equity in losses of unconsolidated affiliates, net of tax; (vii) Gains related to investments in unconsolidated affiliates, net of tax; (viii) Net losses attributable to redeemable noncontrolling interests; (ix) equity-based compensation, including certain related payroll taxes; (x) acquisition-related costs, including costs pursuant to purchase agreements; (xi) costs related to the ICE Transaction; and (xii) costs associated with expense reduction initiatives. These adjustments are reflected in Corporate and Other. Adjusted EBITDA Margin – Adjusted EBITDA margin is calculated by dividing Adjusted EBITDA by Revenues.
