Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Retirement Plan Committee of
CoreLogic Inc. 401(k) Savings Plan
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for benefits of the CoreLogic, Inc. 401(k) Savings Plan (the “Plan”) as of December 31, 2017 and 2016, the related statements of changes in net assets available for benefits for the years then ended, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the net assets available for benefits of the Plan as of December 31, 2017 and 2016, and the changes in net assets available for benefits for the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Plan’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Plan’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Plan in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Plan is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Plan’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures to respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Opinion on the Supplemental Information
The supplemental information included in Schedule H, line 4(i) - Schedule of Assets (Held at End of Year) as of December 31, 2017 has been subjected to audit procedures performed in conjunction with the audit of the Plan’s financial statements. The supplemental information is the responsibility of the Plan's management. Our audit procedures included determining whether the supplemental information reconciles to the financial statements or the underlying accounting and other records, as applicable, and performing procedures to test the completeness and accuracy of the information presented in the supplemental information. In forming our opinion on the supplemental information in the accompanying schedule, we evaluated whether the supplemental information, including its form and content, is presented in conformity with DOL’s Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under ERISA. In our opinion, the supplemental information in the accompanying schedule is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the financial statements as a whole.

Notes to Financial Statements
December 31, 2017 and 2016
1. Description of the Plan
The following description of the CoreLogic, Inc. (the "Company") 401(k) Savings Plan (the "Plan") provides only general information. Participants should refer to the Plan document for a more complete description of the Plan's provisions.
General
The Plan is a defined contribution profit sharing plan covering employees of adopting employers and subsidiaries greater than 50% owned by the Company. An employee is eligible to participate in the Plan on the date of hire and if the employee is at least 18 years of age. The Plan is subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 ("ERISA").
The Plan's trustee and record keeper are Fidelity Management Trust Company and Fidelity Investments Institutional Operations Company, respectively.
Transfer to STARS Plan
On December 29, 2017, Speedy Title & Appraisal Review Services, LLC ("STARS") ceased to be an active adopting employer of the Plan and the STARS employees who had previously participated in the Plan had their account balances transferred to the STARS 401(k) Savings Plan ("STARS Plan"). At the transfer date, the total fair value of accounts transferred was $5,627,986. Included in the transfer were participant investments of $5,445,953 and notes receivable from participants of $182,033.
Contributions
Participants may contribute on a pre-tax and/or after-tax Roth basis from 1% to 80% of annual eligible compensation. Participants who are age 50 or older can make additional catch up contributions. Contributions are subject to Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") limitations.
Discretionary matching amounts may be contributed by the Company at the discretion of the Company's Board of Directors. For the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, the Company matched 50% of the first 6.0% of each eligible participant's compensation to the Plan. Company contributions for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016 were $10,403,045 and $10,896,177, respectively, which was mainly funded during their corresponding second quarter and invested based on each eligible participant's investment elections under the Plan. The Plan is subject to certain non-discrimination rules under ERISA and IRS guidelines. For the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, the Plan passed all non-discrimination tests.
Participants may also rollover distributions from other qualified 401(k) plans or Individual Retirement Accounts ("IRA").
Participant Accounts
Participant account activity may include a participant's own contributions and any Company contributions, investment earnings or losses. Allocations of Company contributions are based on participant compensation and participant contributions to the Plan. The benefit to which a participant is entitled is the benefit that can be provided from the participant's vested account.
Vesting
Participants are immediately vested in their contributions and the Company's contributions, plus actual earnings thereon.
Investment Options
The Plan currently offers various mutual funds, including asset allocation strategy mutual funds and a Company stock fund as investment options for participants. A participant may direct contributions in 1% increments to any of the available investment options, one of which is the option to invest in shares of the Company, and may change their investment options at any time.

Notes to Financial Statements
December 31, 2017 and 2016
Payment of Benefits
The Plan allows for participant withdrawals in lump sum amounts upon retirement, death, disability, termination or attainment of the eligible age as defined by the Plan. Participants may also withdraw from their account balances, as defined by the Plan, in the event of financial hardship, which is determined pursuant to the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code ("IRC"), and from any amounts rolled over from a 401(k) plan or IRA.
Notes Receivable from Participants
Participants may borrow a portion of their account balance pursuant to rules and procedures established by the Plan's administrative committee. The amount borrowed may not exceed the lesser of 50% of the value of the participant's account balance or $50,000. Participants may have only one note outstanding at a time. Notes that are rolled into the Plan in connection with an acquisition by the Company will not be included in determining whether a participant has more than one outstanding note.
Note terms are determined based on the provisions established by the Plan's administrative committee. Notes are collateralized by the balance in the participant's account and bear a rate of interest that is reasonable at the time the note is made, as determined by the Plan's administrative committee. Notes are fully amortized and paid back through principal and interest via payroll deduction or other method as determined by the Plan's administrative committee if payroll deduction is not available to the participant. A participant may fully repay a note at any time without penalty; however, partial prepayments are not permitted. As of December 31, 2017 the rates of interest on outstanding notes ranged from 3.25% to 9.25% with various maturities through November 2027.
Plan Termination
Although it has not expressed any intent to do so, the Company has the right under the Plan to terminate the Plan subject to the provisions of ERISA.
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Accounting
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Investment Valuation and Income Recognition
Plan investments are reported at fair value, which is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Investments in common stock are stated at quoted market prices. See Note 3 - Fair Value Measurements, for discussion of fair value measurements.
Shares of mutual funds and money market funds are valued at the net asset value of the shares held by the Plan at year-end. Investments in security transactions are accounted for on the date securities are purchased or sold. Dividend income is recorded in the participant accounts on the ex-dividend date. Interest income is recognized on an accrual basis as earned.
The Plan presents in the statements of changes in net assets available for benefits the net appreciation/depreciation in the fair value of its investments which consists of the realized gains/losses and the unrealized appreciation/depreciation on those investments.
Notes Receivable from Participants
Notes from participants are measured at unpaid principal balance plus any accrued but unpaid interest. Interest income is recognized on an accrual basis as earned.

Expenses
Certain administrative expenses related to operating and maintaining the Plan are paid by the Company. Certain investment and transaction fees are paid by participants in the Plan.
Payment of Benefits
Benefits are recorded when paid.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements requires the Plan's management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities. In addition, estimates and assumptions are utilized in determining disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements; as well as the reported amounts in the statement of changes in net assets available for benefits during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Risks and Uncertainties
Investment securities are exposed to various risks such as interest rate, market and credit risk. Due to the level of risk associated with certain investment securities and the level of uncertainty related to changes in the value of investment securities, it is at least reasonably possible that changes in circumstances in the near term would materially affect participants' account balances and the amounts reported in the statements of net assets available for benefits and the statements of changes in net assets available for benefits.
3. Fair Value Measurements
When determining the fair value measurements for assets and liabilities required to be recorded at fair value, the Plan considers the principal or most advantageous market in which it would transact and considers assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability, such as inherent risk, transfer restrictions and risk of nonperformance.
A fair value hierarchy requires the Plan to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurement) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurement). Level 2 measurements utilize observable inputs in active markets for similar assets and liabilities, or, quoted prices in markets that are not active.
The preceding methods described may produce a fair value calculation that may not be indicative of net realizable value or reflective of future fair values. Furthermore, although the Plan believes its valuation methods are appropriate and consistent with other market participants, the use of different methodologies or assumptions to determine the fair value of certain financial instruments could result in a different fair value measurement at the reporting date.
The fair values of the mutual fund investments are valued at the net asset value of shares held by the Plan at year end. The Plan's valuation methodology used to measure the fair values of common stock and mutual funds were derived from quoted market prices, as all of these instruments are traded in active markets.

4. Related Party and Party-in-interest Transactions
The Company, which qualifies as a party-in-interest, absorbed certain administrative expenses of the Plan. Such transactions qualify for a statutory exemption. Total administrative expenses paid by the Company were $5,462 and $37,475 for the year ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. Plan expenses, including expenses of the Plan's administrative committee and the Plan's trustee, to the extent not paid by the Plan, are paid by the Company.
The Plan held 661,853 shares of common stock of CoreLogic, Inc. with an aggregate fair value of $30,585,917 at December 31, 2017. The Plan made purchases of $138,914 and sales of $1,349,767 of shares of common stock of CoreLogic during 2017. The Plan held 741,019 shares of common stock of CoreLogic, Inc. with an aggregate fair value of $27,294,101 at December 31, 2016. The Plan made purchases of $367,580 and sales of $1,158,847 of shares of common stock of CoreLogic during 2016.
Certain Plan investments are shares of mutual funds managed by Fidelity Management and Research ("FMR") Company. Fidelity Management Trust Company and Fidelity Investments Institutional Operations Company, Inc. are related entities to FMR, are the trustee and record keeper, respectively, as defined by the Plan and, therefore, these transactions qualify as party-in-interest transactions. The fair value of such investments totaled $72,258,185 and $68,478,430 at December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively.
5. Federal Income Tax Status
The Plan has received a determination letter dated January 30, 2014, from the IRS that the Plan is designed in accordance with applicable sections of the IRC. Although the Plan has been amended since receiving the determination letter, the plan administrator believes that the Plan is designed and is currently being operated in compliance with the applicable requirements of the IRC.
Tax positions taken by the Plan have been analyzed and it has been concluded that, as of December 31, 2017, there are no uncertain positions taken that would require recognition of a liability or disclosure in the financial statements. The Plan is subject to routine audits by taxing jurisdictions; however, there are currently no audits for any tax periods in progress.

6. Concentrations of Credit Risk
Financial instruments which potentially subject the Plan to concentrations of credit risk consist of the Plan's investments. Net assets available for benefits held in CoreLogic common stock were $30,585,917 and $27,294,101 as of December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. These investments, which comprised approximately 5.8% and 6.0% respectively, of the Plan's investments, potentially subject the Plan to concentrations of credit risk as all investments are exposed to market risk from changes in asset valuations.
7. Plan Amendments
During 2017, the Plan expanded the eligibility for hardship distributions to include participants affected by Hurricanes Harvey and Irma as well as eliminated limits on withdrawals after attainment of age 59.5.
During 2016, the Plan expanded the eligibility for hardship distributions to include participants affected by Hurricane Matthew.
