Note 1 – Basis of Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

CoreLogic, Inc., together with its subsidiaries (collectively "we", "us" or "our"), is a leading global property information, analytics and data-enabled services provider operating in North America, Western Europe and Asia Pacific. Our combined data from public, contributory and proprietary sources provides detailed coverage of property, mortgages and other encumbrances, property risk and replacement cost, consumer credit, tenancy, location, hazard risk and related performance information. The markets we serve include real estate and mortgage finance, insurance, capital markets and the public sector. We deliver value to clients through unique data, analytics, workflow technology, advisory and managed services. Clients rely on us to help identify and manage growth opportunities, improve performance and mitigate risk. We are also a party to several joint ventures both domestically and abroad.

Our condensed consolidated financial information included in this report has been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. (“GAAP”) for interim financial information pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect amounts reported in the condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual amounts may differ from these estimated amounts. Certain information and disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. The 2014 year-end condensed consolidated balance sheet was derived from the Company's audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2014. Interim financial information does not require the inclusion of all the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. Therefore, these financial statements should be read in conjunction with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014.

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting of only normal recurring items which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair statement of the results of operations for the periods shown. The results of operations for such periods are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full year or for any future periods.

Out-of-Period Adjustment

During the first quarter of 2015, we identified an error which overstated our interest expense by $5.2 million ($3.1 million, net of tax), reflected within continuing operations, for the year ended December 31, 2014. We recorded an out-of-period adjustment to correct the error in the quarter ended March 31, 2015, which increased basic and diluted net income per share by $0.03. We assessed the materiality of this error and concluded the error was not material to the results of operations or financial condition for the prior annual or interim periods, and the correction is not expected to be material to the full year results for fiscal year 2015.

Comprehensive Income

Comprehensive income includes all changes in equity except those resulting from investments by owners and distributions to owners. Specifically, foreign currency translation adjustments, amounts related to supplemental benefit plans, unrealized gains and losses on interest rate swap transactions and unrealized gains and losses on investment are recorded in other comprehensive income.

The following table shows the components of accumulated other comprehensive loss, net of taxes as of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014:



	2015			2014
Cumulative foreign currency translation	$	(122,539	)	$	(77,460	)
Cumulative supplemental benefit plans	(4,559		)	(4,266		)
Net unrecognized losses on interest rate swap	(5,445		)	(2,335		)
Net unrealized gains on marketable securities	490			275
Accumulated other comprehensive loss	$	(132,053	)	$	(83,786	)

Marketable Securities

Debt securities are carried at fair value and consist primarily of investments in obligations of various corporations and mortgage-backed securities. Equity securities are carried at fair value and consist primarily of investments in marketable common and preferred stock. We classify our publicly traded debt and equity securities as available-for-sale and carry them at fair value with unrealized gains or losses classified as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss. As of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, our marketable securities consisted primarily of investments in preferred stock of $22.6 million and $22.3 million, respectively. There were no gains or losses recognized on sales of marketable securities for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014.

Tax Escrow Disbursement Arrangements

We administer tax escrow disbursements as a service to our clients in connection with our tax services business. These deposits are maintained in segregated accounts for the benefit of our clients. Tax escrow deposits totaled $1.9 billion as of September 30, 2015 and $265.6 million as of December 31, 2014. Because these deposits are held on behalf of our clients, they are not our funds and, therefore, are not included in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets.

These deposits generally remain in the accounts for a period of two to five business days and we invest the funds in a highly-rated, liquid investment, such as bank deposit products or AAA-rated money market funds. We earn interest income or earnings credits from these investments and bear the risk of any losses. However, we have not historically incurred any investment losses and do not anticipate incurring any future investment losses. As a result, we do not maintain any reserves for losses in value of these investments.

Under our contracts with our clients, if we make a payment in error or fail to pay a taxing authority when a payment is due, we could be held liable to our clients for all or part of the financial loss they suffer as a result of our act or omission. We maintained claim reserves relating to incorrect disposition of assets of $21.5 million and $20.2 million as of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In September 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued updated guidance, which eliminates the requirement for an acquirer in a business combination to account for measurement-period adjustments retrospectively. Acquirers must recognize measurement-period adjustments during the period of resolution, including the effect on earnings of any amounts they would have recorded in previous periods if the accounting had been completed at the acquisition date. The updated guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015. Earlier adoption is permitted for any interim and annual financial statements that have not yet been issued. We do not expect the adoption of this guidance to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In August 2015, the FASB issued updated guidance concerning presentation and subsequent measurement of debt issuance costs relating to line of credit arrangements, which can be presented on the balance sheet as an asset to be subsequently amortized ratably over the term of the line of credit arrangement. The updated guidance is effective immediately. This updated guidance did not have a material impact on our financial statements.

In April 2015, FASB issued guidance, which requires that debt issuance costs be presented in the balance sheet as a deduction from the carrying amount of the related liability, rather than as a deferred charge. The updated guidance is effective retrospectively for financial statements covering fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Earlier adoption is permitted but we do not anticipate electing early adoption. We do not expect the adoption of this guidance to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In February 2015, the FASB issued guidance, which modifies the analysis regarding the evaluation of certain types of entities to be consolidated. Specifically, it (1) modifies the assessment of whether limited partnerships are variable interest entities (VIEs), (2) eliminates the presumption that a limited partnership should be consolidated by its general partner, (3) removes certain conditions for the evaluation of whether a fee paid to a decision-maker constitutes a variable interest, and (4) modifies the evaluation concerning the impact of related parties in the determination of the primary beneficiary of a VIE. The updated guidance is effective for annual reporting periods and interim periods within those annual periods beginning after December 15, 2015. Earlier adoption is permitted but we do not anticipate electing early adoption. We do not expect the adoption of this guidance to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In January 2015, the FASB issued guidance, which completely eliminates all references to and guidance concerning the concept of an extraordinary item from GAAP. The updated guidance is effective for annual reporting periods and interim periods within those annual periods beginning after December 15, 2015. Earlier adoption is permitted but we do not anticipate electing early adoption. We do not expect the adoption of this guidance to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In August 2014, the FASB issued updated guidance related to determining whether substantial doubt exists about an entity's ability to continue as a going concern. The amendment provides guidance for determining whether conditions or events give rise to substantial doubt that an entity has the ability to continue as a going concern within one year following issuance of the financial statements, and requires specific disclosures regarding the conditions or events leading to substantial doubt. The updated guidance is effective for annual reporting periods and interim periods within those annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016. Earlier adoption is permitted but we do not anticipate electing early adoption. We do not expect the adoption of this guidance to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In June 2014, the FASB issued updated guidance related to stock compensation. The amendment requires that a performance target that affects vesting and that could be achieved after the requisite period, be treated as a performance condition. The updated guidance is effective for annual reporting periods and interim periods within those annual periods beginning after December 15, 2015. Earlier adoption is permitted but we do not anticipate electing early adoption. We do not expect the adoption of this guidance to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In May 2014, the FASB issued updated guidance on revenue recognition in order to 1) remove inconsistencies in revenue requirements, 2) provide a better framework for addressing revenue issues, 3) improve comparability across entities, industries, etc., 4) provide more useful information through improved disclosures, and 5) simplify the preparation of financial statements by reducing the number of requirements to which an entity must refer. Under the amendment, an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to clients in the amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The guidance also specifies the accounting treatment for the incremental costs of obtaining a contract, which would not have been incurred had the contract not been obtained. Further, an entity is required to disclose sufficient information to enable the user of the financial statements to understand the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows from contracts with clients. As updated by FASB in August 2015, the guidance is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within that reporting period. Earlier adoption is permitted for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016 but we do not anticipate early adoption. We are currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of this guidance on our consolidated financial statements.

Note 2 – Investment in Affiliates, Net

Investments in affiliates are accounted for under the equity method of accounting when we are deemed to have significant influence over the affiliate but do not control or have a majority voting interest in the affiliate. Investments are carried at the cost of acquisition, including subsequent capital contributions and loans from us, plus our equity in undistributed earnings or losses since inception of the investment. We recorded equity in earnings of affiliates, net of tax of $3.5 million and $4.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively, and $11.9 million and $10.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. For the three months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, we recorded $4.8 million and $5.5 million, respectively, of operating revenues and $3.2 million and $3.3 million, respectively, of operating expenses related to our investment in affiliates. In addition, for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, we recorded $14.2 million and $14.4 million, respectively, of operating revenues and $9.7 million and $9.5 million, respectively, of operating expenses related to our investment in affiliates.

One of our subsidiaries owns a 50.1% interest in RELS LLC ("RELS"), a provider of appraisals and appraisal management services used in connection with mortgage loan originations. This investment contributed 80.2% and 76.5% of our total equity in earnings of affiliates, net of tax, for the three months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively, and 83.5% and 81.6% for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

Senior Notes

In May 2011, we issued $400.0 million aggregate principal amount of 7.25% senior notes due 2021 (the "Notes"). The Notes are guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by each of our existing and future direct and indirect subsidiaries that guarantee our Credit Agreement (defined below). Separate financial statements for each guarantor subsidiary are not included in this filing because each guarantor subsidiary is 100% owned and the guarantees of the Notes are joint and several and full and unconditional. The combined accounts of the guarantor subsidiaries, the combined accounts of the non-guarantor subsidiaries, the combined consolidating adjustments and eliminations and the consolidated accounts for CoreLogic, Inc. (the "Parent") for the dates and periods indicated are included in Note 16 - Guarantor Subsidiaries. The guarantees are subject to release under certain customary circumstances. The indenture governing the Notes provides that the guarantees may be automatically and unconditionally released only upon the following circumstances: 1) the guarantor is sold or sells all of its assets in compliance with the terms of the indenture; 2) the guarantor is released from its guarantee obligations under the Credit Agreement; 3) the guarantor is properly designated as an “unrestricted subsidiary;” or 4) the requirements for legal or covenant defeasance or satisfaction and discharge have been satisfied. The maximum potential amounts that could be required to be paid under the guarantees are essentially equal to the outstanding principal and interest under the Notes. There are no significant restrictions on the ability of the Parent or any guarantor subsidiary to obtain funds from its subsidiaries by dividend or loan. The Notes bear interest at 7.25% per annum and mature on June 1, 2021. Interest is payable semi-annually in arrears on June 1 and December 1 of each year, beginning on December 1, 2011. As of September 30, 2015, we were in compliance with all of our covenants under the indenture.

Credit Agreement

In April 2015, we amended and restated our senior secured credit facility (the "Credit Agreement") with Bank of America, N.A. as administrative agent and other financial institutions. The Credit Agreement provides for an $850.0 million five-year term loan facility (the "Term Facility") and a $550.0 million revolving credit facility (the "Revolving Facility") and expires on April 21, 2020. The Revolving Facility includes a $100.0 million multicurrency revolving sub-facility and a $50.0 million letter of credit sub-facility. The Credit Agreement also provides for the ability to increase the Term Facility and Revolving Facility by up to $750.0 million in the aggregate. As of September 30, 2015, we were in compliance with all of our covenants under the Credit Agreement.

Debt Issuance Costs

In connection with the amendment and restatement of the Credit Agreement, we incurred approximately $6.5 million of debt issuance costs of which $0.4 million were expensed in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2015. We capitalized the remaining $6.1 million of debt issuance costs within other assets in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets, and will amortize these costs over the term of the Credit Agreement.

When we amended and restated the Credit Agreement, we had unamortized costs of $14.8 million related to previously recorded debt issuance costs, which we will amortize over the term of the Credit Agreement. In connection with the amendment and restatement of the Credit Agreement, during the nine months ended September 30, 2015, we wrote-off $1.6 million of unamortized debt issuance costs.

7.55% Senior Debentures

In April 1998, we issued $100.0 million in aggregate principal amount of 7.55% senior debentures due 2028. In April 2010, in anticipation of the spin-off of our financial services businesses into a new, publicly-traded, New York Stock Exchange-listed company called First American Financial Corporation ("FAFC") in June 2010 ("Separation"), we commenced a cash tender offer for these debentures and also solicited consent from the holders thereof to expressly affirm that the Separation would not conflict with the terms of the debentures. See Note 11 - Litigation and Regulatory Contingencies for further discussion on the Separation. In April 2010, we announced that valid consents were tendered representing over 50.0% of the outstanding debentures. Accordingly, we received the requisite approvals from debenture holders and amended the related indentures. The indentures governing these debentures, as amended, contain limited restrictions on the Company.

Acquisition-Related Notes

In March 2011, we entered into a settlement services joint venture with Speedy Title & Appraisal Review Services LLC ("STARS"). Our initial investment in STARS was $20.0 million and we also issued a note payable for an additional $15.0 million of consideration, which is non-interest bearing and due in three equal installments. As of September 30, 2015, the discounted balance outstanding under the note was $4.8 million.

Interest Rate Swaps

In May 2014, we entered into amortizing interest rate swap transactions ("Swaps"). The Swaps became effective in December 2014 and terminate in March 2019. The Swaps are for an initial notional balance of $500.0 million, with a fixed interest rate of 1.57%, and amortize quarterly by $12.5 million through December 31, 2017 and $25.0 million through December 31, 2018, with a remaining notional amount of $250.0 million. We entered into the Swaps in order to convert a portion of our interest rate exposure on the Term Facility floating rate borrowings from variable to fixed. We have designated the Swaps as cash flow hedges. The estimated fair value of these cash flow hedges resulted in a liability of $8.8 million and $3.8 million as of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively, which is included in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets as a component of other liabilities.

Our previous amortizing interest rate swap transactions entered into in June 2011 were terminated with a realized loss of $4.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 upon full repayment of the underlying debt associated with the terminated credit agreement.

Unrealized losses of $2.0 million (net of $1.3 million in deferred taxes) and unrealized gains of $1.0 million (net of $0.6 million in deferred taxes) were recognized in other comprehensive loss related to the Swaps for the three months ended

September 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. In addition, unrealized losses of $3.1 million (net of $1.9 million in deferred taxes) and unrealized gains of $0.3 million (net of $0.2 million in deferred taxes) were recognized in other comprehensive loss related to the Swaps for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

Note 7 – Income Taxes

The effective income tax rate for income taxes as a percentage of income from continuing operations before equity in earnings of affiliates and income taxes was 46.4% and 23.7% for the three months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively, and 37.4% and 26.5% for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

For the three months ended September 30, 2015 when compared to 2014, the increase in the effective income tax rates were primarily attributable to an increase in unbenefited foreign losses in tax jurisdictions with tax rates lower than the U.S., a decrease in foreign tax credits and prior year non-recurring favorable discrete items associated with the disposition of our collateral solutions and field services businesses.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2015 when compared to the same period in 2014, the increase in the effective income tax rates were attributable to an increase in unbenefited foreign losses in tax jurisdictions with tax rates lower than the U.S., a decrease in foreign tax credits and nonrecurring favorable discrete items associated with research credits and the disposition of our collateral solutions and field service businesses, which were offset by current year nonrecurring favorable discrete items associated with the release of a foreign valuation allowance and reserves related to the acquisition of MSB/DataQuick.

Income taxes included in equity in earnings of affiliates were $2.3 million and $2.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively, and $7.8 million and $6.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. For the purpose of segment reporting, these amounts are not reflected at the segment level.

We are currently under examination for the years 2005 to 2011 by the U.S. federal and various state taxing authorities. It is reasonably possible the amount of unrecognized tax benefit with respect to certain unrecognized tax positions could significantly increase or decrease within the next twelve months. We estimate the unrecognized tax benefit could decrease by up to $21.6 million within the next twelve months. The estimated change is primarily related to IRS audits, subject to the FAFC indemnification, and will have no impact to net income. See Note 11 - Litigation and Regulatory Contingencies for further discussion on FAFC.

The dilutive effect of stock-based compensation awards has been calculated using the treasury-stock method. For the three months ended September 30, 2015 there were no anti-dilutive common shares. For the three months ended September 30, 2014, an aggregate of 0.4 million stock options were excluded from the weighted-average diluted common shares outstanding due to their anti-dilutive effect. For the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, 0.2 million restricted stock units ("RSUs") and stock options and 0.3 million stock options, respectively, were excluded from the weighted-average diluted common shares outstanding due to their antidilutive effect.

Note 9 – Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Fair value is the price that would be received upon sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (exit price). We utilize market data or assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, including assumptions about risk and the risks inherent in the inputs to the valuation technique. These inputs can be readily observable, market corroborated or generally unobservable.

The market approach is applied for recurring fair value measurements and endeavors to utilize the best available information. Accordingly, we utilize valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. Fair value balances are classified based on the observability of those inputs.

A fair value hierarchy prioritizes the inputs used to measure 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 markets other than active markets.

In estimating the fair value of the financial instruments presented, we used the following methods and assumptions:

Cash and cash equivalents

For cash and cash equivalents, we believe that the carrying value is a reasonable estimate of fair value due to the short-term nature of the instruments.

Restricted cash

Restricted cash is comprised of certificates of deposit that are pledged for various letters of credit. We deem the carrying value to be a reasonable estimate of fair value due to the nature of these instruments.

Marketable securities

Marketable securities are classified as available-for-sale securities and are valued using quoted prices in active markets for similar assets.

Long-term debt

The fair value of long-term debt was estimated based on the current rates available to us for similar debt of the same remaining maturities and consideration of our default and credit risk.

Interest rate swap agreements

The fair value of the interest rate swap agreements was estimated based on market-value quotes received from the counterparties to the agreements.

The fair values of our financial instruments as of September 30, 2015 are presented in the following table:



	Fair Value Measurements Using

In addition, we recorded non-cash impairment charges of $3.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 in our goodwill, net related to our technology solutions, solutions express and outsourcing services businesses. Lastly, we recorded non-cash impairment charges of $0.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 in our investment in affiliates, net, due to other-than-temporary loss in value from the absence of an ability to recover the carrying amount of the investment.

Note 10 – Stock-Based Compensation

We currently issue equity awards under the Amended and Restated CoreLogic, Inc. 2011 Performance Incentive Plan, which was initially approved by our stockholders at our Annual Meeting held on May 19, 2011 with an amendment and restatement approved by our stockholders at our Annual Meeting held on July 29, 2014 (the “Plan”). The Plan includes the ability to grant RSUs, performance-based RSUs ("PBRSU") and stock options. The Plan provides for up to 21,930,000 shares of the Company's common stock to be available for award grants. Prior to the approval of the Plan, we issued share-based awards under the CoreLogic, Inc. 2006 Incentive Plan.

We have primarily utilized RSUs, PBRSUs and stock options as our share-based compensation instruments for employees and directors. The fair value of any share-based compensation instrument grant is based on the market value of our shares on the date of grant and is recognized as compensation expense over its vesting period.

Restricted Stock Units

For the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, we awarded 943,486 and 774,414 RSUs, respectively, with an estimated grant-date fair value of $33.3 million and $23.7 million, respectively. The majority of the RSU awards will vest ratably over three years.

RSU activity for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 is as follows:



	Number of		Weighted-Average Grant-Date
(in thousands, except weighted-average fair value prices)	Shares		Fair Value

RSUs forfeited	(78	)	$	31.41
Unvested RSUs outstanding at September 30, 2015	1,581		$	32.80

As of September 30, 2015, there was $32.1 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested RSUs that is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.8 years. The fair value of RSUs is based on the market value of our common stock on the date of grant.

Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units

For the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, we awarded 222,788 and 367,558 PBRSUs, respectively, with an estimated grant-date fair value of $7.6 million and $11.6 million, respectively. These awards are subject to service-based, performance-based and market-based vesting conditions. For the PBRSUs awarded during the nine months ended September 30, 2015, the performance period is from January 1, 2015 to December 31, 2017 and the performance metric is adjusted earnings per share and market-based conditions. Subject to satisfaction of the performance criteria, the 2015 awards will vest on December 31, 2017.

The performance period for the PBRSUs awarded during the nine months ended September 30, 2014 is from January 1, 2014 to December 31, 2016 and the performance metric is adjusted earnings per share and market-based conditions. Subject to satisfaction of the performance criteria, the majority of the 2014 awards will vest on December 31, 2016.

The fair values of the 2015 and 2014 awards were estimated using Monte-Carlo simulation with the following weighted-average assumptions:



	For the Nine Months Ended September 30,
	2015		2014

Expected dividend yield	—	%	—	%
Risk-free interest rate ⁽¹⁾	0.93	%	0.74	%
Expected volatility ⁽²⁾	24.01	%	27.88	%
Average total stockholder return ⁽²⁾	8.37	%	(0.90	)%


(1)	The risk-free interest rate for the periods within the contractual term of the PBRSUs is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of the grant.


(2)	The expected volatility and average total stockholder return is a measure of the amount by which a stock price has fluctuated or is expected to fluctuate based primarily on our and our peers' historical data.

PBRSU activity for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 is as follows:



	Number of		Weighted-Average Grant-Date
(in thousands, except weighted-average fair value prices)	Shares		Fair Value
Unvested PBRSUs outstanding at December 31, 2014	903		$	22.19
PBRSUs granted	223		$	34.01
PBRSUs vested	(415	)	$	16.51
PBRSUs forfeited	(49	)	$	30.83
Unvested PBRSUs outstanding at September 30, 2015	662		$	29.21

As of September 30, 2015, there was $11.2 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested PBRSUs that is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.1 years. The fair value of PBRSUs is based on the market value of our common stock on the date of grant.

Stock Options

In 2014, we issued stock options as incentive compensation for certain employees. The exercise price of each stock option is the closing market price of our common stock on the date of grant. The options vest in three equal annual installments on the first, second and third anniversaries of the grant date and expire ten years after the grant date. The fair values of these stock options were estimated using the Black-Scholes valuation model with the following weighted-average assumptions:



	For the Nine Months Ended
	September 30, 2014
Expected dividend yield	—	%
Risk-free interest rate ⁽¹⁾	1.74	%
Expected volatility ⁽²⁾	37.92	%
Expected life ⁽³⁾	5.5


(1)	The risk-free interest rate for the periods within the contractual term of the options is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of the grant.


(2)	The expected volatility is a measure of the amount by which a stock price has fluctuated or is expected to fluctuate based primarily on our and our peers' historical data.


(3)	The expected life is the period of time, on average, that participants are expected to hold their options before exercise based primarily on our historical data.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2014, we awarded 290,737 options, with an estimated fair value of $9.1 million. There were no options awarded for the nine months ended September 30, 2015. Option activity for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 is as follows:



(in thousands, except weighted-average price)	Number of Shares		Weighted-Average Exercise Price		Weighted-Average Remaining Contractual Term	Aggregate Intrinsic Value
Options outstanding at December 31, 2014	2,562		$	22.32
Options exercised	(676	)	$	24.56
Options canceled	(28	)	$	29.27
Options outstanding at September 30, 2015	1,858		$	21.40	5.3	$	29,409
Options vested and expected to vest at September 30, 2015	1,849		$	21.36	5.3	$	29,348
Options exercisable at September 30, 2015	1,604		$	20.14	4.9	$	27,419

As of September 30, 2015, there was $1.7 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested stock options that is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.2 years.

The intrinsic value of options exercised was $8.8 million and $1.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. This intrinsic value represents the difference between the fair market value of our common stock on the date of exercise and the exercise price of each option.

Employee Stock Purchase Plan

The employee stock purchase plan allows eligible employees to purchase our common stock at 85.0% of the lesser of the closing price on the first day or the last day of each quarter. Our employee stock purchase plan was approved by our stockholders at our 2012 annual meeting of stockholders and the first offering period commenced in October 2012. We recognized an expense for the amount equal to the estimated fair value of the discount during each offering period.

The following table sets forth the stock-based compensation expense recognized for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014.



	For the Three Months Ended				For the Nine Months Ended
	September 30,				September 30,
(in thousands)	2015		2014		2015		2014
RSUs	$	5,699	$	4,316	$	18,532	$	14,746
PBRSUs	1,433		1,227		5,485		3,973

Employee stock purchase plan	305		151		922		563
	$	7,880	$	6,472	$	26,419	$	22,281

The above includes $1.3 million and $0.4 million of stock-based compensation expense within cost of services in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively, and $2.7 million and $1.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. It also includes $0.1 million and $0.2 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, respectively, of stock-based compensation expense reported within loss from discontinued operations in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Note 11 – Litigation and Regulatory Contingencies

We have been named in various lawsuits. Also, we may from time to time be subject to audit or investigation by governmental agencies. Currently, governmental agencies are auditing or investigating certain of our operations.

With respect to matters where we have determined that a loss is both probable and reasonably estimable, we have recorded a liability representing our best estimate of the financial exposure based on known facts. While the ultimate disposition of each such audit, investigation or lawsuit is not yet determinable, we do not believe that the ultimate resolution of these matters, either individually or in the aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. In addition, we do not believe there is a reasonable possibility that a material loss exceeding amounts already accrued may have been incurred. The ability to predict the ultimate outcome of such matters involves judgments, estimates and inherent uncertainties. The actual outcome of such matters could differ materially from management’s estimates. We record expenses for legal fees as incurred.

Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act Class Action

On February 8, 2008, a purported class action was filed in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California, San Jose Division, against WaMu and eAppraiseIT alleging breach of contract, unjust enrichment, and violations of the Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act (“RESPA”), the California Unfair Competition Law and the California Consumers Legal Remedies Act. The complaint alleged a conspiracy between WaMu and eAppraiseIT to allow WaMu to direct appraisers to artificially inflate appraisals in order to qualify higher value loans that WaMu could then sell in the secondary market. Plaintiffs subsequently voluntarily dismissed WaMu on March 9, 2009. On August 30, 2009, the court dismissed all claims against eAppraiseIT except the RESPA claim.

On July 2, 2010, the court denied plaintiff's first motion for class certification. On November 19, 2010, the plaintiffs filed a renewed motion for class certification. On April 25, 2012, the court granted plaintiffs' renewed motion and certified a nationwide class of all persons who, on or after June 1, 2006, received home loans from WaMu in connection with appraisals that were obtained through eAppraiseIT. On July 12, 2012, the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals declined to review the class certification order. Following discovery, on July 1, 2014, the defendant filed motions for summary judgment and to decertify the class. On September 16, 2014, the trial court granted summary judgment against one named plaintiff but denied it as to the other, denied the motion to decertify the class, and bifurcated trial into two phases. The parties thereafter conducted a court-ordered mediation and subsequently reached an agreement in principle to settle the case for a total of $9.9 million, inclusive of attorney fees and subject to court approval. We previously recorded an accrual for this amount within loss from discontinued operations, net of tax.

On December 12, 2014, the court preliminarily approved the settlement. Notice to the class was subsequently made and, after a final fairness hearing on April 24, 2015, the court entered final judgment on April 27, 2015 approving the settlement and dismissing the case with prejudice.

Separation

Following the Separation, we are responsible for a portion of FAFC's contingent and other corporate liabilities. In the Separation and Distribution Agreement we entered into in connection with the Separation, we agreed with FAFC to share equally in the cost of resolution of a small number of corporate-level lawsuits, including certain consolidated securities litigation matters from which we have since been dropped. There were no liabilities incurred in connection with the consolidated securities matters. Responsibility to manage each case has been assigned to either FAFC or us, with the managing party required to update the other party regularly and consult with the other party prior to certain important decisions, such as settlement. The managing party will also have primary responsibility for determining the ultimate total liability, if any, related to the applicable case. We will record our share of any such liability when the responsible party determines a reserve is necessary. At September 30, 2015, no reserves were considered necessary.

In addition, the Separation and Distribution Agreement provides for cross-indemnities principally designed to place financial responsibility for the obligations and liabilities of our predecessor, The First American Corporation's ("FAC") financial services business, with FAFC and financial responsibility for the obligations and liabilities of FAC's information solutions business with us. Specifically, each party will, and will cause its subsidiaries and affiliates to, indemnify, defend and hold harmless the other party, its respective affiliates and subsidiaries and each of its respective officers, directors, employees and agents for any losses arising out of or otherwise in connection with the liabilities each such party assumed or retained pursuant to the Separation and Distribution Agreement; and any breach by such party of the Separation and Distribution Agreement.

Note 12 – Acquisitions

In September 2015, we completed the acquisition of LandSafe for $122.0 million, subject to working capital adjustments, which is included as a component of our D&A reporting segment. The acquisition builds on our longstanding strategic relationship with a key client and continues to expand our property valuation capabilities. The purchase price was allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed using a variety of valuation techniques including discounted cash flow analysis, which included significant unobservables. The purchase price allocation is subject to change based on our final determination of fair value in connection with intangible assets and working capital matters. We preliminarily recorded customer lists of $53.4 million with an estimated average life of 10 years, other intangibles of $4.3 million with an estimated useful life of 10 years and goodwill of $64.6 million, which is fully deductible for tax purposes. The business combination did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In March 2014, we completed the acquisition of Marshall & Swift/Boeckh ("MSB") and DataQuick Information Systems ("DataQuick"). In addition, we acquired the assets of the credit, flood services and automated valuation model operations of DataQuick Lending Solutions and certain intellectual property assets of Decision Insight Information Group S.à r.l. The total consideration paid in connection with the MSB/DataQuick acquisition was approximately $652.5 million in cash, which was primarily funded through borrowings under our Credit Agreement. The acquisition of MSB/DataQuick significantly expanded our footprint in property and casualty insurance and added scale to our existing property data and analytics business, which was a contributing factor to the recording of goodwill. The operations of MSB and DataQuick's data licensing and analytics units are reported within our D&A segment and DataQuick's flood zone determination and credit servicing operations are reported within our Technology and Processing Solutions ("TPS") segment. The purchase price was allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed using a variety of valuation techniques including discounted cash flow analysis, which included significant unobservable inputs. Any excess of the purchase price over the fair value of identified assets acquired and liabilities assumed was recognized as goodwill. The allocation of the purchase price is as follows:



(in thousands)
Cash and cash equivalents	$	36
Accounts receivable	9,227
Prepaid expenses and other current assets	2,190
Deferred income tax assets, current	6,658
Property and equipment	177,311

Net assets acquired	$	652,519


(1)	Goodwill of $307.8 million includes $167.8 million of deductible basis for tax purposes.

We reported revenues of approximately $46.3 million from MSB/DataQuick from the acquisition date of March 25, 2014 through September 30, 2014.

Note 13 – Redeemable Noncontrolling Interest

Noncontrolling interests that are redeemable at the option of the holder are classified as redeemable noncontrolling interests in the mezzanine section of our condensed consolidated balance sheet between liabilities and stockholders’ equity. Redeemable noncontrolling interests are reported at their estimated redemption value in each reporting period, but contractually not less than their initial fair value. Any adjustments to the redemption value impacts retained earnings.

In September 2013, we acquired an additional 10% interest in New Zealand based Property IQ Ltd. ("PIQ") for NZD$3.3 million, or $2.6 million, resulting in a 60.0% controlling interest. In connection with the acquisition, the other holder has the right to sell its remaining noncontrolling shares in PIQ to us (the "put") and we have the right to purchase the remaining noncontrolling interest in PIQ at fair value (the "call"). As the call and put do not represent separate assets or liabilities and the exercise of the put is outside of our control, the noncontrolling interest of NZD$13.2 million, or $10.2 million, was recorded on the date of acquisition as redeemable noncontrolling interest in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet. We recognized $0.4 million for both the three months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, and $0.8 million and $0.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively, of net income in connection with the redeemable noncontrolling interest. As of September 30, 2015, we recorded accumulated adjustments to redeemable noncontrolling interest and retained earnings to increase the estimated redemption value by $7.2 million.

Note 14 – Discontinued Operations

On September 30, 2014, we completed the sale of our collateral solutions and field services businesses, which were included in our previous Asset Management and Processing Solutions ("AMPS") segment, for total consideration of $29.1 million, subject to working capital adjustments.

Summarized below are certain assets and liabilities classified as discontinued operations as of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014:

Note 15 – Segment Information

We have organized our reportable segments into two segments: D&A and TPS. We also separately report on our corporate and eliminations group.

Data & Analytics. Our D&A segment owns or licenses data assets including loan information, property sales and characteristic information, property risk and replacement cost, information on mortgage-backed securities, criminal and eviction records and employment verification information. We both license our data directly to our clients and provide our clients with analytical products and workflow solutions for risk management, multiple listing services ("MLS"), insurance underwriting, collateral assessment, loan quality reviews and fraud assessment. We are also a provider of geospatial proprietary software and databases combining geographic mapping and our data assets. Our primary clients are commercial banks, mortgage lenders and brokers, investment banks, fixed-income investors, real estate agents, MLS companies, property and casualty insurance companies, title insurance companies and government agencies and sponsored enterprises.

Our D&A segment includes intercompany revenues of $1.2 million and $1.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively, and $3.8 million and $3.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. The segment also includes intercompany expenses of $1.3 million and $1.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively, and $3.9 million and $4.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

Note 16 - Guarantor Subsidiaries

As discussed in Note 6 - Long-Term Debt, the Notes are guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by each of our existing and future direct and indirect subsidiaries that guarantee our Credit Agreement. These guarantees are required in support of the Notes, are coterminous with the terms of the Notes and would require performance upon certain events of default referred to in the respective guarantees. The indenture governing the Notes provides that the guarantees may be automatically and unconditionally released upon the following circumstances: 1) the guarantor is sold or sells all of its assets in compliance with the terms of the indenture; 2) the guarantor is released from its guarantee obligations under the Credit Agreement; 3) the guarantor is properly designated as an “unrestricted subsidiary;” or 4) the requirements for legal or covenant defeasance or satisfaction and discharge have been satisfied.

The maximum potential amounts that could be required to be paid under the guarantees are essentially equal to the outstanding principal and interest under the Notes. The following condensed consolidating financial information reflects the separate accounts of CoreLogic, Inc. (the "Parent"), the combined accounts of the guarantor subsidiaries, the combined accounts of the non-guarantor subsidiaries, the combined consolidating adjustments and eliminations and the Parent's consolidated accounts for the dates and periods indicated.

Business Overview

We are a leading global property information, analytics and data-enabled services provider operating in North America, Western Europe and Asia Pacific. Our combined data from public, contributory and proprietary sources provides detailed coverage of property, mortgages and other encumbrances, property risk and replacement cost, consumer credit, tenancy, location, hazard risk and related performance information. We have more than one million users who rely on our data and predictive decision analytics to reduce risk, enhance transparency and improve the performance of their businesses.

We offer our clients among the most comprehensive national databases of public, contributory and proprietary data covering real property and mortgage information, judgments and liens, building and replacement costs, parcel and geospatial data, criminal background records, eviction information, non-prime lending records, credit information, and tax information, among other data types. Our databases include over 880 million historical property transactions, over 93 million mortgage applications and property-specific data covering approximately 99% of U.S. residential properties exceeding 148 million records. We believe the quality of the data we offer is distinguished by our broad range of data sources and our expertise in aggregating, organizing, normalizing, processing and delivering data to our clients.

With our data as a foundation, we have built strong analytics capabilities and a variety of value-added business services to meet our clients’ needs for mortgage and automotive credit reporting, property tax, property valuation, tenancy, hazard risk, property risk and replacement cost, flood plain location determination and other geospatial data, analytics and related services.

Reportable Segments

We have organized our reportable segments into the following two segments: Data & Analytics ("D&A") and Technology and Processing Solutions ("TPS").

Data & Analytics

Our D&A segment owns or licenses data assets including loan information, property sales and characteristic information, property risk and replacement cost, information on mortgage-backed securities, criminal and eviction records and employment verification information. We both license our data directly to our clients and provide our clients with analytical products and workflow solutions for risk management, multiple listing services ("MLS"), insurance underwriting, collateral assessment, loan quality reviews and fraud assessment. We are also a provider of geospatial proprietary software and databases combining geographic mapping and our data assets. Our primary clients are commercial banks, mortgage lenders and brokers, investment banks, fixed-income investors, real estate agents, MLS companies, property and casualty insurance companies, title insurance companies and government agencies and sponsored enterprises.

Technology and Processing Solutions

Our TPS segment provides property tax monitoring, flood zone certification and monitoring, credit services, mortgage loan administration and production services, lending solutions, mortgage-related business process outsourcing, technology solutions and compliance-related services. The segment’s primary clients are large, national mortgage lenders and servicers, but we also serve regional mortgage lenders and brokers, credit unions, commercial banks, government agencies and casualty insurance companies.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Overview of Business Environment and Company Developments

Business Environment

The volume of U.S. mortgage loan originations serves as a key market driver for more than half our business. We believe the volume of real estate and mortgage transactions is primarily affected by real estate prices, the availability of funds for mortgage loans, mortgage interest rates, employment levels and the overall state of the U.S. economy. We believe mortgage originations, expressed in dollars, increased by approximately 10% in the third quarter of 2015 relative to the same period in 2014, primarily due to low interest rates and improvement in home purchase-related and mortgage loan refinancing-related origination volumes. Through 2015, the level of mortgage originations was higher due to favorable long-term interest rates and the continued accommodative policy stance of the Federal Reserve. We expect total 2015 mortgage origination unit volumes will be modestly above 2014 levels.

We generate the majority of our revenues from clients with operations in the U.S. residential real estate, mortgage origination and mortgage servicing markets. Approximately 30.3% and 32.7% of our operating revenues for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015, respectively, were generated from our ten largest clients, which primarily consist of the largest U.S. mortgage originators and servicers.

While the majority of our revenues are generated in the U.S., continued strengthening of the U.S. dollar versus other currencies in 2015 has unfavorably impacted the financial results translation of our international operations. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015, our revenues were unfavorably impacted by $7.8 million and $18.1 million, respectively.

Acquisitions

In September 2015, we completed the acquisition of LandSafe Appraisal Services, Inc. ("LandSafe") for $122.0 million, which is included as a component of our D&A reporting segment. The acquisition builds on our long-standing strategic relationship with a key client and continues to expand our property valuation capabilities.

Credit Agreement Amendment

On April 21, 2015, we completed an amendment and restatement of our senior secured credit facility agreement, which increased our borrowing capacity and lowered our future borrowing costs. In addition, the amendment provided for increased flexibility for acquisitions and certain types of investments as well as an extension of the term to April 2020.

Productivity & Cost Management

In line with our commitment to operational excellence and margin expansion, we are undertaking an expanded three-year productivity and cost management program, which is expected to reduce expense, on an annual run-rate basis, by approximately $60.0 million by 2018. Savings are expected to be realized through the reduction of selling, general and administrative costs, outsourcing certain business process functions, consolidation of facilities and other operational improvements. This program will incorporate expected savings from the completion of the first phase of our previously-announced TTI described below. Cash and non-cash charges associated with this program are expected to aggregate approximately $20.0 million and will be incurred over the course of the three-year program.

Technology Transformation Initiative

In July 2012, as part of our on-going cost efficiency program, we announced the launch of our TTI, which is a major technology transformation initiative designed to provide us with new functionality, increased performance and reduced application management and development costs. The TTI encompasses two phases. The first phase, designed to transform our existing technology infrastructure to run in a private dedicated cloud environment hosted in Dell’s technology center located in Quincy, WA, was completed in the second quarter of 2015. The second phase of the TTI involves the creation of a next-generation technology platform to leverage data monetization and analytics, social media, mobility, voice and other capabilities via a delivery portal driven by a common data repository. Progressive deployment of our next-generation platform is currently expected to occur in several phases, which commenced in 2015. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015, we incurred expenses of $3.4 million and $13.8 million, respectively, and capitalized expenditures of $1.2 million and $6.0 million, respectively, related to the TTI.

Unless otherwise indicated, the Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q relate solely to the discussion of our continuing operations.

Consolidated Results of Operations

Three Months Ended September 30, 2015 Compared to Three Months Ended September 30, 2014

Operating Revenues

Our consolidated operating revenues were $386.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2015, an increase of $19.0 million, or 5.2%, when compared to 2014, and consisted of the following:



(in thousands, except percentages)	2015			2014			$ Change			% Change
D&A	$	170,509		$	173,554		$	(3,045	)	(1.8	)%
TPS	218,349			196,282			22,067			11.2
Corporate and eliminations	(2,419		)	(2,382		)	(37		)	1.6
Operating revenues	$	386,439		$	367,454		$	18,985		5.2	%

Our D&A segment revenues decreased by $3.0 million, or 1.8%, when compared to 2014. The decrease of $3.0 million was primarily the result of the impact of unfavorable foreign currency translation of $7.8 million and lower multifamily and specialty credit revenues of $0.9 million, due to a decrease in rental market volumes. This decrease was partially offset by higher insurance and spatial solutions revenues of $5.6 million and higher property information and analytics revenues of $0.1 million due to higher mortgage origination volumes and improved pricing.

Our TPS segment revenues increased by $22.1 million, or 11.2%, when compared to 2014. Acquisition activity contributed $3.6 million of additional revenues in 2015. Excluding acquisition activity, the increase of $18.5 million was primarily due to increases in mortgage origination volumes and market share gains, which increased our payment processing revenues by $11.4 million and origination and underwriting services revenues by $8.2 million. This increase was partially offset by declines in our technology and outsourcing services revenues of $1.1 million, primarily due to lower operational services volumes.

Our corporate and eliminations were comprised of intercompany revenue eliminations between our operating segments.

Cost of Services

Our consolidated cost of services was $192.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2015, an increase of $7.7 million, or 4.1%, when compared to 2014. Acquisition activity contributed $3.2 million of additional expense in 2015. Excluding acquisition activity, the increase of $4.5 million was primarily due to higher mortgage loan volumes of $7.8 million, partially offset by favorable product mix of $3.3 million.

Selling, General and Administrative Expense

Our consolidated selling, general and administrative expenses were $91.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2015, an increase of $23.1 million, or 34.0%, when compared to 2014. Acquisition activity contributed $1.0 million of additional expense in 2015. Excluding acquisition activity, the increase of $22.1 million was primarily due to a non-recurring $13.9 million gain on sale of real estate assets, which offset selling, general and administrative expenses in the prior year. In addition, we had higher compensation-related expenses of $7.5 million, higher external services costs of $4.9 million and higher professional fees of $3.2 million. The increase was partially offset by lower facility and lease equipment costs of $3.2 million and higher capitalized costs and other expenses of $4.2 million.

Depreciation and Amortization

Our consolidated depreciation and amortization expense was $36.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2015, an increase of $0.7 million, or 1.9%, when compared to 2014. Acquisition activity contributed $0.5 million of additional expense in 2015 and the remaining variance was primarily due to increased capitalized software development costs.

Operating Income

Our consolidated operating income was $65.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2015, a decrease of $11.8 million, or 15.2%, when compared to 2014, and consisted of the following:



(in thousands, except percentages)	2015			2014		$ Change			% Change
D&A	$	27,196		$	32,387	$	(5,191	)	(16.0	)%
TPS	56,459			44,608		11,851			26.6
Corporate and eliminations	(17,735		)	760		(18,495		)	(2,433.6	)
Operating income	$	65,920		$	77,755	$	(11,835	)	(15.2	)%

Our D&A segment operating income decreased by $5.2 million, or 16.0%, when compared to 2014 and our operating margins decreased 269 basis points. The decrease was primarily due to higher compensation-related expenses of $1.0 million, higher professional fees of $1.5 million, the impact of unfavorable foreign currency translation of $0.7 million and higher other expenses of $2.0 million.

Our TPS segment operating income increased by $11.9 million, or 26.6%, when compared to 2014. Acquisition activity contributed $1.1 million of lower operating income in 2015 due to transition-related costs. Excluding acquisition activity, operating income increased $13.0 million and operating margins increased 406 basis points primarily due to higher mortgage origination volumes, market share gains and the impact of on-going operational efficiency programs.

Corporate and eliminations had an unfavorable variance of $18.5 million primarily due to a gain from dispositions of property and equipment in the prior year and higher acquisition-related costs.

Total Interest Expense, net

Our consolidated total interest expense, net was $16.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2015, a decrease of $1.0 million, or 5.5%, when compared to 2014. The decrease was due to lower interest rates.

(Loss)/Gain on Investments and Other, Net

Our consolidated loss on investments and other, net was $2.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2015, an unfavorable variance of $2.6 million when compared to 2014, due primarily to lower realized gains on investments in the current year.

Provision for Income Taxes

Our consolidated provision for income taxes from continuing operations before equity in earnings of affiliates and income taxes was $21.8 million and $14.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. The effective tax rate was 46.4% and 23.7% for the three months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. The increase in the effective income tax rate was primarily attributable to unbenefited foreign losses in tax jurisdictions with tax rates lower than the U.S., a decrease in foreign tax credits and nonrecurring prior year favorable discrete items associated with the disposition of the collateral solutions and field services businesses.

Equity in Earnings of Affiliates, Net of Tax

Our consolidated equity in earnings of affiliates, net of tax, was $3.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2015, a decrease of $0.5 million, or 13.3%, when compared to 2014. We have equity interests in various affiliates that primarily provide settlement services in connection with residential mortgage loans. The decrease in equity in earnings of affiliates, net of

tax, was due to lower levels of profitability in our affiliates that provide insurance solutions and settlement services in connection with residential mortgage loans.

Loss from Discontinued Operations, Net of Tax

Our consolidated loss from discontinued operations, net of tax, was $0.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2015, a decrease of $4.7 million, when compared to 2014. The variance is primarily due to prior year losses in our collateral solutions and field services businesses.

Net Income Attributable to Noncontrolling Interests

Our consolidated net income attributable to noncontrolling interests was $0.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014.

Nine Months Ended September 30, 2015 Compared to Nine Months Ended September 30, 2014

Operating Revenues

(in thousands, except percentages)	2015			2014			$ Change		% Change
D&A	$	510,644		$	483,182		$	27,462	5.7	%
TPS	633,962			583,921			50,041		8.6
Corporate and eliminations	(7,382		)	(7,575		)	193		(2.5	)
Operating revenues	$	1,137,224		$	1,059,528		$	77,696	7.3	%

Our D&A segment revenues increased by $27.5 million, or 5.7%, when compared to 2014. Acquisition activity accounted for $21.1 million of the increase in 2015. Excluding acquisition activity, the increase of $6.4 million was primarily the result of higher property information and analytics revenues of $25.5 million and higher spatial solutions revenues of $1.9 million due to higher mortgage origination volumes and improved pricing. This was partially offset by unfavorable foreign currency exchange of $18.1 million, lower multifamily and specialty credit revenues of $1.9 million due to a decrease in rental market volumes, and other unfavorable fluctuations of $1.0 million.

Our TPS segment revenues increased by $50.0 million, or 8.6%, when compared to 2014. Acquisition activity contributed $12.3 million of additional revenues in 2015. Excluding acquisition activity, the increase of $37.7 million was primarily due to increases in mortgage origination volumes and market-share gains, which increased our origination and underwriting services revenues by $28.0 million, and higher payment processing revenues of $17.6 million, partially offset by declines in our technology and outsourcing services revenues of $7.9 million due to lower operational services volumes and product mix.

Our corporate and eliminations were comprised of intercompany revenue eliminations between our operating segments.

Cost of Services

Our consolidated cost of services was $568.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2015, an increase of $3.2 million, or 0.6%, when compared to 2014. Acquisition activity contributed $14.3 million of additional expense in 2015. Excluding acquisition activity, the decrease of $11.1 million was primarily due to favorable product mix of $21.8 million, synergies of $11.1 million from acquisition integration activities and off-shore efficiencies of $2.1 million due to our ongoing operational efficiency program, partially offset by costs associated with higher mortgage loan volumes of $23.9 million.

Selling, General and Administrative Expense

Our consolidated selling, general and administrative expenses were $283.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2015, an increase of $28.0 million when compared to 2014. Acquisition activity contributed $5.7 million of additional expense in 2015. Excluding acquisition activity, the increase of $22.3 million was primarily due to a non-recurring $13.9 million gain from dispositions of property and equipment which offsets selling, general and administrative expenses in the prior year and higher compensation-related expenses of $26.9 million, partially offset by lower facility and lease equipment costs of $6.7 million, lower external cost of services of $3.7, lower software expense of $1.5 million, higher capitalized costs of $1.3 million and lower other expenses of $5.3 million.

Depreciation and Amortization

Our consolidated depreciation and amortization expense was $109.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2015, an increase of $9.0 million, or 8.9%, when compared to 2014. The increase is primarily due to acquisition activity.

Operating Income

Our consolidated operating income was $175.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2015, an increase of $42.3 million, or 31.7%, when compared to 2014, and consisted of the following:



(in thousands, except percentages)	2015			2014			$ Change			% Change
D&A	$	78,479		$	76,343		$	2,136		2.8	%
TPS	157,746			102,588			55,158			53.8
Corporate and eliminations	(60,332		)	(45,331		)	(15,001		)	33.1
Operating income	$	175,893		$	133,600		$	42,293		31.7	%

Our D&A segment operating income increased by $2.1 million, or 2.8%, when compared to 2014. Acquisition activity contributed $6.4 million of higher operating income in 2015. Excluding acquisition activity, operating income decreased by $4.3 million and operating margins decreased 122 basis points primarily due to higher compensation-related expenses of $7.7 million and the impact of unfavorable foreign currency translation of $1.7 million, partially offset by higher mortgage origination volumes.

Our TPS segment operating income increased by $55.2 million, or 53.8%, when compared to 2014. Acquisition activity contributed $2.2 million of lower operating income in 2015 due to transition-related costs. Excluding acquisition activity, operating income increased $57.4 million and operating margins increased 821 basis points primarily due to the increase in mortgage origination volumes, market-share gains and the impact of ongoing operational efficiency programs.

Corporate and eliminations operating loss increased $15.0 million, or 33.1%, primarily due to a gain from dispositions of property and equipment in the prior year.

Total Interest Expense, net

Our consolidated total interest expense, net was $45.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2015, a decrease of $3.9 million, or 7.9%, when compared to 2014. The decrease was due to an out-of-period adjustment recorded during the first quarter of 2015, which reduced interest expense by $5.2 million, partially offset by new debt borrowings related to the acquisition of MSB/DataQuick in the first quarter of 2014.

(Loss)/Gain on Investments and Other, Net

Our consolidated loss on investments and other, net was $3.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2015, an unfavorable variance of $6.3 million when compared to 2014, due primarily to a $6.0 million distribution gain from a previously impaired investment in affiliate recorded in the prior year, lower realized gains on investments in the current year of $2.8 million and losses related to the extinguishment of debt of $1.6 million in the current year, partially offset by a $4.1 million loss recorded in the prior year from the termination of an interest rate swap agreement in connection with the 2014 refinancing of our outstanding debt.

Provision for Income Taxes

Our consolidated provision for income taxes from continuing operations before equity in earnings of affiliates and income taxes was $47.4 million and $23.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. The effective tax rate was 37.4% and 26.5% for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. The increase in the effective income tax rate was primarily attributable to an increase in unbenefited foreign losses in tax jurisdictions with tax rates lower than the U.S., a decrease in foreign tax credits and nonrecurring favorable discrete items associated with research credits and non-recurring prior year favorable discrete items associated with the disposition of collateral solutions and field services businesses,which were offset by current year nonrecurring favorable discrete items associated with the release of a foreign valuation allowance and reserves related to the acquisition of MSB/DataQuick.

Equity in Earnings of Affiliates, Net of Tax

Our consolidated equity in earnings of affiliates, net of tax, was $11.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2015, an increase of $1.6 million, or 16.0%, when compared to 2014. Acquisition activity contributed $0.6 million of the increase in 2015. Excluding acquisition activity, equity in earnings of affiliates, net of tax increased by $1.0 million. We have equity interests in various affiliates that provide settlement services in connection with residential mortgage loans. The increase in equity in earnings of affiliates, net of tax, was primarily due to higher mortgage origination volumes.

Loss from Discontinued Operations, Net of Tax

Our consolidated loss from discontinued operations, net of tax, was $0.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2015, a favorable variance of $14.8 million, when compared to 2014. The variance is primarily due to a pre-tax legal settlement of $12.0 million in the prior year, as well as a declining default market, which impacted our collateral solutions and field services businesses in the prior year.

Net Income Attributable to Noncontrolling Interests

Our consolidated net income attributable to noncontrolling interests was approximately $0.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Cash and cash equivalents at September 30, 2015 totaled $160.3 million, an increase of $55.6 million from December 31, 2014. Our cash balances held outside of the U.S. are primarily related to our international operations and, as of September 30, 2015, totaled $79.1 million. Most of the amounts held outside of the U.S. could be repatriated to the U.S. but, under current law, would be subject to U.S. federal income taxes, less applicable foreign tax credits. We plan to maintain significant cash balances outside the U.S. for the foreseeable future.

Restricted cash of $10.9 million at September 30, 2015 and $12.4 million as of December 31, 2014 represents cash pledged for various letters of credit provided in the ordinary course of business to certain vendors, including in connection with obtaining insurance and real property leases.

Cash Flow

Operating Activities. Cash provided by operating activities reflects net income adjusted for non-cash items and changes in certain assets and liabilities. Cash provided by operating activities was approximately $253.7 million and $208.6 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. The increase in cash provided by operating activities was primarily due to increased profitability in our continuing operations of $17.2 million attributable to higher mortgage origination volumes, market share gains, and lower transition and acquisition-related costs. We also benefited from the timing of payments for accounts payable and accrued expenses of $42.0 million and favorable changes in certain working capital items, namely our deferred revenue balances, which were partially offset by higher tax payments of $60.1 million in our continuing operations and lower cash provided by operating activities from our discontinued operations of $5.5 million primarily due to a legal settlement payment.

Investing Activities. Cash used in investing activities was approximately $179.2 million and $695.1 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. This decrease in investing activities is primarily due to the difference in cash paid for the acquisition of LandSafe of $119.3 million compared to cash paid for the acquisition of MSB/DataQuick of $672.3 million in the prior year. Further, for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, we had

investments in property and equipment of $30.0 million and $37.1 million, respectively, and capitalized data of $27.7 million and $25.2 million, respectively.

Financing Activities. Net cash used in financing activities was approximately $25.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2015, which was primarily comprised of share repurchases of $97.4 million, repayment of long-term debt of $47.0 million and debt issuance costs of $6.5 million, partially offset by proceeds from debt issuance of $114.4 million and net proceeds from stock-based compensation-related transactions of $11.4 million. Net cash provided by financing activities was $481.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2014, which was comprised of proceeds from debt issuance of $690.0 million primarily in connection with our acquisition of MSB/DataQuick, partially offset by repayment of long-term debt of $118.8 million, share repurchases of $72.8 million, debt issuance costs of $14.0 million and net settlement from stock-based compensation-related transactions of $3.2 million.

Financing and Financing Capacity

Total debt outstanding was $1.4 billion and $1.3 billion as of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively. Our significant debt instruments and borrowing capacity are described below.

Senior Notes

For a detailed description of our 7.25% senior notes due June 2021 (the "Notes"), see Note 6 - Long-Term Debt of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 1 - Financial Statements of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. In May 2011, we issued $400.0 million aggregate principal amount of Notes, guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by each of our existing and future direct and indirect subsidiaries that guarantee the Credit Agreement (as defined below). Interest is payable semi-annually in arrears on June 1 and December 1 of each year, which commenced on December 1, 2011.

The indenture governing the Notes contains a financial covenant for the incurrence of additional indebtedness that requires the interest coverage ratio be at least 2:00 to 1:00 on a pro forma basis after giving effect to any new indebtedness. There are carve-outs that permit us to incur certain indebtedness notwithstanding satisfaction of this ratio but they are limited. Based on our EBITDA and interest charges as of September 30, 2015, we would be able to incur additional indebtedness without breaching the limitation on indebtedness covenant contained in the indenture.

Credit Agreement

For a detailed description of our senior secured credit facility (the "Credit Agreement"), see Note 6 - Long-Term Debt of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 1 - Financial Statements of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. In April 2015, we amended and restated our senior secured credit facility (the "Credit Agreement") with Bank of America, N.A. as administrative agent and other financial institutions. The Credit Agreement provides for an $850.0 million five-year term loan facility (the "Term Facility") and a $550.0 million revolving credit facility (the "Revolving Facility") expiring on April 21, 2020. The Revolving Facility includes a $100.0 million multicurrency revolving sub-facility and a $50.0 million letter of credit sub-facility. The Credit Agreement also provides for the ability to increase the Term Facility and Revolving Facility by up to $750.0 million in the aggregate.

The Credit Agreement contains customary financial maintenance covenants, including a (i) maximum total leverage ratio as of the last date of any fiscal quarter not to exceed 4.50 to 1.00 (stepping down to 4.25 to 1.00 in the second quarter of 2016 with further annual step-downs to 3.50 to 1.00 ending in the second quarter of 2019); and (ii) a minimum interest coverage ratio of at least 3.00 to 1.00.

The Credit Agreement provides that loans under the Term Facility shall be repaid in equal quarterly installments, commencing on the third quarter of 2015 and continuing on each three-month anniversary thereafter in an amount equal to $10.6 million for the first eight quarterly payments, $21.3 million for the next four quarterly payments and $31.9 million for each quarterly payment thereafter. The outstanding balance of the term loan will be due on April 21, 2020.

At September 30, 2015, we had additional borrowing capacity under the Revolving Facility of $450.0 million and were in compliance with the financial and restrictive covenants of the Credit Agreement. However, if we have a significant increase in our outstanding debt or if our EBITDA decreases significantly, we may be unable to incur additional indebtedness and the lenders under the Credit Agreement may be unwilling to permit us to amend the financial or restrictive covenants described above to provide additional flexibility.

Interest Rate Swaps

In May 2014, we entered into amortizing interest rate swap transactions ("Swaps"). The Swaps became effective on December 31, 2014 and terminate in March 2019. The Swaps are for an initial notional balance of $500.0 million, with a fixed interest rate of 1.57%, and amortize quarterly by $12.5 million through December 31, 2017 and $25.0 million through December 31, 2018, with a remaining notional amount of $250.0 million.

Liquidity and Capital Strategy

We believe that cash flow from operations and current cash balances, together with currently available lines of credit, will be sufficient to meet operating requirements through the next twelve months. Cash available from operations could be affected by any general economic downturn or any decline or adverse changes in our business such as a loss of clients, competitive pressures or other significant change in business environment.

We strive to pursue a balanced approach to capital allocation and will consider the repurchase of common shares, the retirement of outstanding debt and the pursuit of strategic acquisitions on an opportunistic basis.

Availability of Additional Capital

Our access to additional capital fluctuates as market conditions change. There may be times when the private capital markets and the public debt or equity markets lack sufficient liquidity or when our securities cannot be sold at attractive prices, in which case we would not be able to access capital from these sources. Based on current market conditions and our financial condition (including our ability to satisfy the conditions contained in our debt instruments that are required to be satisfied to permit us to incur additional indebtedness), we believe that we have the ability to effectively access these liquidity sources for new borrowings. However, a weakening of our financial condition, including a significant decrease in our profitability or cash flows or a material increase in our leverage, could adversely affect our ability to access these markets and/or increase our cost of borrowings.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

For additional information with respect to our critical accounting policies, which we believe could have the most significant effect on our reported results and require subjective or complex judgments by management, see Item 7, “Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014. Management believes that at September 30, 2015, there had been no material changes to this information.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.

Our primary exposure to market risk relates to interest-rate risk associated with certain financial instruments. We monitor our risk associated with fluctuations in interest rates and currently use derivative financial instruments to hedge some of these risks. In May 2014, we entered into the Swaps, which became effective on December 31, 2014 and terminate in March 2019. The Swaps are for an initial notional balance of $500.0 million, with a fixed interest rate of 1.57%, and amortize quarterly by $12.5 million through December 31, 2017 and $25.0 million through December 31, 2018, with a remaining notional amount of $250.0 million.

As of September 30, 2015, we had approximately $1.4 billion in long-term debt outstanding, of which approximately $939.4 million was variable-interest-rate debt. As of September 30, 2015, the remaining notional balance of the Swaps was $462.5 million. A hypothetical 1% increase or decrease in interest rates could result in an approximately $1.2 million change to interest expense on a quarterly basis.

We are also subject to equity price risk related to our equity securities portfolio. At September 30, 2015, we had equity securities with a fair value of $22.6 million.

Although we are subject to foreign currency exchange rate risk as a result of our operations in certain foreign countries, the foreign exchange exposure related to these operations, in the aggregate, is not material to our financial condition or results of operations.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our principal executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded that, as of the end of the quarterly period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, were effective, based on the evaluation of these controls and procedures required by Rule 13a-15(b).

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended September 30, 2015 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II: OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings.

For a description of our legal proceedings, see Note 11 – Litigation and Regulatory Contingencies of our condensed consolidated financial statements, which is incorporated by reference in response to this item.

Item 1A. Risk Factors.

A restated description of the risk factors associated with our business is set forth below. This description supersedes the description of the risk factors associated with our business previously disclosed in Part II, Item 1A of our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended June 30, 2015. The risks discussed below are not the only ones facing our business but do represent those risks that we believe are material to us. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial may also harm our business. Please read the cautionary notice regarding forward-looking statements under the heading “Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.”

Risks Related to Our Business

We depend on our ability to access data from external sources to maintain and grow our businesses. If we are unable to access needed data from these sources or if the prices charged for these services increase, the quality, pricing and availability of our products and services may be adversely affected, which could have a material adverse impact on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

We rely extensively upon data from a variety of external sources to maintain our proprietary and non-proprietary databases, including data from third-party suppliers, various government and public record sources and data contributed by our clients. Our data sources could cease providing or reduce the availability of their data to us, increase the price we pay for their data, or limit our use of their data for a variety of reasons, including legislatively- or judicially-imposed restrictions on use. If a number of suppliers are no longer able or are unwilling to provide us with certain data, or if our public record sources of data become unavailable or too expensive, we may need to find alternative sources. If we are unable to identify and contract with suitable alternative data suppliers and efficiently and effectively integrate these data sources into our service offerings, we could experience service disruptions, increased costs and reduced quality of our services. Moreover, some of our suppliers compete with us in certain product offerings, which may make us vulnerable to unpredictable price increases from them. Significant price increases could have a material adverse effect on our operating margins and our financial position, in particular if we are unable to arrange for substitute sources of data on more favorable economic terms. Loss of such access or the availability of data in the future on commercially reasonable terms or at all may reduce the quality and availability of our services and products, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.


2.	Our clients and we are subject to various governmental regulations, and a failure to comply with government regulations or changes in these regulations could result in penalties, restrict or limit our or our clients' operations or make it more burdensome to conduct such operations, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our revenues, earnings and cash flows.

Many of our and our clients' businesses are subject to various federal, state, local and foreign laws and regulations. Our failure to comply with applicable laws and regulations could restrict our ability to provide certain services or result in the

imposition of civil fines and criminal penalties, substantial regulatory and compliance costs, litigation expense, adverse publicity and loss of revenue.

In addition, our businesses are subject to an increasing degree of compliance oversight by regulators and by our clients. Specifically, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ("CFPB") has authority to write rules affecting the business of credit reporting agencies and also to supervise, conduct examinations of, and enforce compliance as to federal consumer financial protection laws and regulations with respect to certain “non-depository covered persons” determined by the CFPB to be “larger participants” that offer consumer financial products and services. Two of our credit businesses - CoreLogic Credco and Teletrack - are subject to the CFPB non-bank supervision program. The CFPB and the prudential financial institution regulators such as the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency ("OCC") also have the authority to examine us in our role as a service provider to large financial institutions, although it is yet unclear how broadly they will apply this authority going forward. In addition, several of our largest bank clients are subject to consent orders with the OCC and/or are parties to the National Mortgage Settlement, both of which require them to exercise greater oversight and perform more rigorous audits of their key vendors such as us.

These laws and regulations (as well as laws and regulations in the various states or in other countries) could limit our ability to pursue business opportunities we might otherwise consider engaging in, impose additional costs or restrictions on us, result in significant loss of revenue, impact the value of assets we hold, or otherwise significantly adversely affect our business. In addition, this increased level of scrutiny may increase our compliance costs.

Our operations could be negatively affected by changes to laws and regulations and enhanced regulatory oversight of our clients and us. These changes may compel us to increase our prices in certain situations or decrease our prices in other situations, may restrict our ability to implement price increases, and may limit the manner in which we conduct our business or otherwise may have a negative impact on our ability to generate revenues, earnings and cash flows. If we are unable to adapt our products and services to conform to the new laws and regulations, or if these laws and regulations have a negative impact on our clients, we may experience client losses or increased operating costs, and our business and results of operations could be negatively affected.


3.	Regulatory developments with respect to use of consumer data and public records could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Because our databases include certain public and non-public personal information concerning consumers, we are subject to government regulation and potential adverse publicity concerning our use of consumer data. We acquire, store, use and provide many types of consumer data and related services that are subject to regulation under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ("FCRA"), the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act ("GLBA"), and the Driver's Privacy Protection Act and, to a lesser extent, various other federal, state, and local laws and regulations. These laws and regulations are designed to protect the privacy of consumers and to prevent the unauthorized access and misuse of personal information in the marketplace. Our failure to comply with these laws, or any future laws or regulations of a similar nature, could result in substantial regulatory penalties, litigation expense and loss of revenue.

In addition, some of our data suppliers face similar regulatory requirements and, consequently, they may cease to be able to provide data to us or may substantially increase the fees they charge us for this data which may make it financially burdensome or impossible for us to acquire data that is necessary to offer our products and services. Further, many consumer advocates, privacy advocates and government regulators believe that existing laws and regulations do not adequately protect privacy or ensure the accuracy of consumer-related data. As a result, they are seeking further restrictions on the dissemination or commercial use of personal information to the public and private sectors as well as contemplating requirements relative to data accuracy and the ability of consumers to opt to have their personal data removed from databases such as ours. Any future laws, regulations or other restrictions limiting the dissemination or use of personal information may reduce the quality and availability of our products and services, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.


4.	If we are unable to protect our information systems against data corruption, cyber-based attacks or network security breaches, or if we are unable to provide adequate security in the electronic transmission of sensitive data, it could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

We are highly dependent on information technology networks and systems, including the Internet, to securely process, transmit and store electronic information. In particular, we depend on our information technology infrastructure for business-to-business and business-to-consumer electronic commerce. Security breaches of this infrastructure, including physical or

electronic break-ins, computer viruses, attacks by hackers and similar breaches, can create system disruptions, shutdowns or unauthorized disclosure of confidential information, including non-public personal information and consumer data. Unauthorized access, including through use of fraudulent schemes such as "phishing" schemes, could jeopardize the security of information stored in our systems. In addition, malware or viruses could jeopardize the security of information stored or used in a user's computer. If we are unable to prevent such security or privacy breaches, our operations could be disrupted, or we may suffer loss of reputation, financial loss and other regulatory penalties because of lost or misappropriated information, including sensitive consumer data.

Likewise, our clients are increasingly imposing more stringent contractual obligations on us relating to our information security protections. If we are unable to maintain protections and processes at a level commensurate with that required by our large clients, it could negatively affect our relationships with those clients or increase our operating costs, which could harm our business or reputation.


5.	Systems interruptions may impair the delivery of our products and services, causing potential client and revenue loss.

System interruptions may impair the delivery of our products and services, resulting in a risk of loss of clients and a corresponding loss in revenue. Our technology infrastructure runs in a private dedicated cloud-based environment hosted in Dell's technology center in Quincy, WA. We cannot be sure that certain systems interruptions or events beyond our control, including issues with Dell's technology center, will not interrupt or terminate the delivery of our products and services to our clients. These interruptions also may interfere with our suppliers' ability to provide necessary data to us and our employees' ability to attend to work and perform their responsibilities. Any of these possible outcomes could result in a loss of clients or a loss in revenue, which could have an adverse effect on our business or operations.


6.	Because our revenue from clients in the mortgage, consumer lending and real estate industries is affected by the strength of the economy and the housing market generally, including the volume of real estate transactions, a negative change in any of these conditions could materially adversely affect our business and results of operations.

A significant portion of our revenue is generated from solutions we provide to the mortgage, consumer lending and real estate industries and, as a result, a weak economy or housing market may adversely affect our business. The volume of mortgage origination and residential real estate transactions is highly variable. Reductions in these transaction volumes could have a direct impact on certain portions of our revenues and may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. Moreover, negative economic conditions could affect the performance and financial condition of some of our clients in many of our businesses, which may lead to negative impacts on our revenue, earnings and liquidity in particular if these clients go bankrupt or otherwise exit certain businesses.


7.	We do not solely control the operations and dividend policies of our partially-owned affiliates, including our joint ventures. A decrease in earnings of or dividends from these joint ventures could have a negative impact on our earnings and cash flow.

In our joint ventures with some of our largest clients, we share control of the management of the operations of the joint venture with the other partner. As a result, we cannot solely dictate the ventures' business strategy, operations or dividend policies without the cooperation of the respective partners. These joint ventures are impacted by many of the same regulatory and economic factors that affect our business. A decrease in earnings and dividends derived from these joint ventures could have a negative impact on our earnings and cash flow. In addition, our joint venture partners could decide to exit the joint venture or otherwise terminate the operations at their discretion, which could have a material adverse effect on our business and results of operations.

We rely on our top clients for a significant portion of our revenue and profit, which makes us susceptible to the same macro-economic and regulatory factors that our clients face. If these clients are negatively impacted by current economic or regulatory conditions or otherwise experience financial hardship or stress, or if the terms of our relationships with these clients change, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected.

Our ten largest clients generated 30.3% of our operating revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2015. These clients face continued pressure in the current economic and regulatory climate. Many of our relationships with these clients are long-standing and are important to our future operating results, but there is no guarantee that we will be able to

retain or renew existing agreements or maintain our relationships on acceptable terms or at all. Deterioration in or termination of any of these relationships, including through mergers or consolidations among our clients, could significantly reduce our revenue and could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. In addition, certain of our businesses have higher client concentration than our company as a whole. As a result, these businesses may be disproportionately affected by declining revenue from, or loss of, a significant client.


9.	We rely upon proprietary technology and information rights, and if we are unable to protect our rights, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be harmed.

Our success depends, in part, upon our intellectual property rights. We rely primarily on a combination of patents, copyrights, trade secrets, and trademark laws and nondisclosure and other contractual restrictions on copying, distribution and creation of derivative products to protect our proprietary technology and information. This protection is limited, and our intellectual property could be used by others without our consent. In addition, patents may not be issued with respect to our pending or future patent applications, and our patents may not be upheld as valid or may not prevent the development of competitive products. Any infringement, disclosure, loss, invalidity of, or failure to protect our intellectual property could negatively impact our competitive position, and ultimately, our business. Moreover, litigation may be necessary to enforce or protect our intellectual property rights, to protect our trade secrets, or to determine the validity and scope of the proprietary rights of others. Such litigation could be time-consuming, result in substantial costs and diversion of resources and could harm our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.


10.	If our products or services are found to infringe on the proprietary rights of others, we may be required to change our business practices and may also become subject to significant costs and monetary penalties.

As we continue to develop and expand our products and services, we may become increasingly subject to infringement claims from third parties such as non-practicing entities, software providers or suppliers of data. Likewise, if we are unable to maintain adequate controls over how third-party software and data are used we may be subject to claims of infringement. Any claims, whether with or without merit, could:


•	be expensive and time-consuming to defend;


•	cause us to cease making, licensing or using applications that incorporate the challenged intellectual property;


•	require us to redesign our applications, if feasible;


•	divert management's attention and resources; and


•	require us to enter into royalty or licensing agreements in order to obtain the right to use necessary technologies.


11.	The acquisition and integration of businesses, or future disposition of businesses, by us may involve increased expenses, and may not produce the desired financial or operating results contemplated at the time of the transaction.

We have acquired and expect to continue to acquire, on an opportunistic basis, companies, businesses, products and services. These activities may increase our expenses, and the expected benefits, synergies and growth from these initiatives may not materialize as planned. In addition, we may have difficulty integrating our completed or any future acquisitions into our operations, including implementing at the acquired companies controls, procedures and policies in line with our controls, procedures and policies. If we fail to properly integrate acquired businesses, products, technologies and personnel, it could impair relationships with employees, clients and strategic partners, distract management attention from our core businesses, result in control failures and otherwise disrupt our ongoing business and harm our results of operations. We also may not be able to retain key management and other critical employees after an acquisition. In addition, although part of our business strategy may include growth through strategic acquisitions, we may not be able to identify suitable acquisition candidates, obtain the capital necessary to pursue acquisitions or complete acquisitions on satisfactory terms.

In addition, our profitability may be impacted by gains or losses on any sales of businesses, or lost operating income or cash flows from such businesses. We also may be required to record asset impairment or restructuring charges related to divested businesses, or indemnify buyers for liabilities, which may reduce our profitability and cash flows. We may also not be able to negotiate such divestitures on terms acceptable to us. If we are not successful in divesting such businesses, our business could be harmed.

12. Our reliance on outsourcing arrangements subjects us to risk and may disrupt or adversely affect our operations. In addition, we may not realize the full benefit of our outsourcing arrangements, which may result in increased costs, or may adversely affect our service levels for our clients.

Over the last few years, we have outsourced various business process and information technology services to third parties, including the outsourcing arrangements we entered into with a subsidiary of Cognizant Technology Solutions and the technology infrastructure management services agreement we entered into with Dell. Although we have service-level arrangements with our providers, we do not ultimately control their performance, which may make our operations vulnerable to their performance failures. In addition, the failure to adequately monitor and regulate the performance of our third-party vendors could subject us to additional risk. Reliance on third parties also makes us vulnerable to changes in the vendors' business, financial condition and other matters outside of our control, including their violations of laws or regulations which could increase our exposure to liability or otherwise increase the costs associated with the operation of our business. The failure of our outsourcing partners to perform as expected or as contractually required could result in significant disruptions and costs to our operations and to the services we provide to our clients, which could materially and adversely affect our business, client relationships, financial condition, operating results and cash flow.


13.	Our international outsourcing service providers and our own international operations subject us to additional risks, which could have an adverse effect on our results of operations. Dependence on these operations, in particular our outsourcing arrangements, may impair our ability to operate effectively.

Over the last few years, we have reduced our costs by utilizing lower-cost labor outside the U.S. in countries such as India and the Philippines through outsourcing arrangements. These countries are subject to higher degrees of political and social instability than the U.S. and may lack the infrastructure to withstand political unrest or natural disasters. Such disruptions can impact our ability to deliver our products and services on a timely basis, if at all, and to a lesser extent can decrease efficiency and increase our costs. Weakness of the U.S. dollar in relation to the currencies used and higher inflation rates experienced in these countries may also reduce the savings we planned to achieve. Furthermore, the practice of utilizing labor based in foreign countries has come under increased scrutiny in the United States and, as a result, many of our clients may require us to use labor based in the U.S. We may not be able to pass on the increased costs of higher-priced U.S.-based labor to our clients, which ultimately could have an adverse effect on our results of operations.

In addition, the foreign countries in which we have outsourcing arrangements or operate could adopt new legislation or regulations that would adversely affect our business by making it difficult, more costly or impossible for us to continue our foreign activities as currently being conducted. In addition, in many foreign countries, particularly in those with developing economies, it is common to engage in business practices that are prohibited by laws and regulations applicable to us, such as the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act ("FCPA"). Any violations of FCPA or local anti-corruption laws by us, our subsidiaries or our local agents, could have an adverse effect on our business and reputation and result in substantial financial penalties or other sanctions.


14.	Our level of indebtedness could adversely affect our financial condition and prevent us from complying with our covenants and obligations under our outstanding debt instruments. In addition, the instruments governing our indebtedness subject us to various restrictions that could limit our operating flexibility.

As of September 30, 2015, our total debt was approximately $1.4 billion, and we have unused commitments of approximately $450.0 million under our senior secured credit facilities.

Subject to the limitations contained in the credit agreement governing our credit facilities, the indenture governing the 7.25% senior notes and our other debt instruments, we may incur substantial additional debt from time to time to finance working capital, capital expenditures, investments or acquisitions, or for other general corporate purposes. If we do so, the risks related to our level of debt could intensify.

The indenture governing the 7.25% senior notes and the credit agreement governing our credit facilities each impose operating and financial restrictions on our activities. These restrictions include the financial covenants in our credit facilities which require on-going compliance with certain financial tests and ratios, including a minimum interest coverage ratio and maximum leverage ratio. The operating and financial restrictions in the indenture or the credit agreement could limit or prohibit our ability to, among other things:


•	create, incur or assume additional debt;


•	create, incur or assume certain liens;


•	redeem and/or prepay certain subordinated debt we might issue in the future;


•	pay dividends on our stock or repurchase stock;


•	make certain investments and acquisitions, including joint ventures;


•	enter into or permit to exist contractual limits on the ability of our subsidiaries to pay dividends to us;


•	enter into new lines of business;


•	engage in consolidations, mergers and acquisitions;


•	engage in specified sales of assets; and


•	enter into transactions with affiliates.

These restrictions on our ability to operate our business could impact our business by, among other things, limiting our ability to take advantage of financing, merger and acquisition or other corporate opportunities that might otherwise be beneficial to us. Our failure to comply with these restrictions could result in an event of default which, if not cured or waived, could result in the acceleration of substantially all our debt.

15. We may not be able to generate sufficient cash to service all of our indebtedness and may be forced to take other actions to satisfy our obligations under our outstanding debt instruments, which may not be successful.

Our ability to make scheduled payments on or refinance our debt obligations depends on our financial condition and operating performance, which are subject to prevailing economic and competitive conditions and to certain financial, business, legislative, regulatory and other factors beyond our control. We may be unable to maintain a level of cash flows from operating activities sufficient to permit us to pay the principal, premium, if any, and interest on our indebtedness. Our inability to generate sufficient cash flows to satisfy our debt obligations, or to refinance our indebtedness on commercially reasonable terms or at all, would materially and adversely affect our financial position and results of operations. If we cannot make scheduled payments on our debt, we will be in default and holders of the 7.25% senior notes or the lenders under our credit facilities could declare all outstanding principal and interest to be due and payable, and the lenders under our credit facilities could terminate their revolving commitments to loan money and foreclose against the assets securing their borrowings, and we could be forced into bankruptcy or liquidation.

16. We operate in a competitive business environment, and if we are unable to compete effectively our results of operations and financial condition may be adversely affected.

The markets for our products and services are intensely competitive. Our competitors vary in size and in the scope and breadth of the services they offer. We compete for existing and new clients against both third parties and the in-house capabilities of our clients. Many of our competitors have substantial resources. Some have widely-used technology platforms that they seek to use as a competitive advantage to drive sales of other products and services. In addition, we expect that the markets in which we compete will continue to attract new competitors and new technologies. These competitors and new technologies may be disruptive to our existing technology or service offerings, resulting in operating inefficiencies and increased competitive pressure. We cannot assure you that we will be able to compete successfully against current or future competitors. Any competitive pressures we face in the markets in which we operate could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.


17.	We may not be able to attract and retain qualified management or develop current management to assist in or lead company growth, which could have an adverse effect on our ability to maintain or increase our product and service offerings.

We rely on skilled management and our success depends on our ability to attract, train and retain a sufficient number of such individuals. If our attrition rate increases, our operating efficiency and productivity may decrease. We compete for talented individuals not only with other companies in our industry but also with companies in other industries, such as software services, engineering services and financial services companies, and there is a limited pool of individuals who have the skills and training needed to grow our company, especially in the increasingly-regulated environment in which we operate. Increased attrition or competition for qualified management could have an adverse effect on our ability to expand our business and product offerings, as well as cause us to incur greater personnel expenses and training costs.


18.	We have substantial investments in recorded goodwill as a result of prior acquisitions and an impairment of these investments would require a write-down that would reduce our net income.

Goodwill is assessed for impairment annually or sooner if circumstances indicate a possible impairment. Factors that could lead to impairment of goodwill include significant under-performance relative to historical or projected future operating results, a significant decline in our stock price and market capitalization and negative industry or economic trends. In the event that the book value of goodwill is impaired, any such impairment would be charged to earnings in the period of impairment. In the event of significant volatility in the capital markets or a worsening of current economic conditions, we may be required to record an impairment charge, which would negatively impact our results of operations. Possible future impairment of goodwill may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

19. We may not be able to effectively achieve our cost-containment or growth strategies, which could adversely affect our financial condition or results of operations.

Our cost-containment and growth strategies include strategic outsourcing, streamlining functions and revenue growth and margin expansion. Our ability to execute on these plans depends in part on maintaining our competitive advantage with current solutions in new and existing markets, as well as our ability to develop new technologies and solutions to serve such markets. There can be no assurance that we will be able to realize all of the projected benefits of our cost-containment plans or that we will be able to compete successfully in new markets or continue to compete effectively in our existing markets. In addition, development of new technologies and solutions may require significant investment by us. If we fail to introduce new technologies or solutions effectively or on a cost-effective or timely basis, or if we are not successful in introducing or obtaining regulatory or market acceptance for new solutions, we may lose market share and our results of operations or cash flows could be adversely affected.


20.	We share responsibility with First American Financial Corporation ("FAFC") for certain income tax liabilities for tax periods prior to and including the date of the Separation.

Under the Tax Sharing Agreement we entered into in connection with the Separation transaction, we are generally responsible for taxes attributable to our business, assets and liabilities and FAFC is generally responsible for all taxes attributable to members of the FAFC group of companies and the assets, liabilities or businesses of the FAFC group of companies. Generally, any liabilities arising from tax adjustments to consolidated tax returns for periods prior to and including the date of the Separation will be shared in proportion to each company's percentage of the tax liability for the relevant year (or partial year with respect to 2010), unless the adjustment is attributable to either party, in which case the adjustment will generally be for the account of such party. In addition to this potential liability associated with adjustments for prior periods, if FAFC were to fail to pay any tax liability it is required to pay under the Tax Sharing Agreement, we could be legally liable under applicable tax law for such tax liabilities and required to make additional tax payments. Accordingly, under certain circumstances, we may be obligated to pay amounts in excess of our agreed-upon share of tax liabilities.


21.	If certain transactions, including internal transactions, undertaken in anticipation of the Separation are determined to be taxable for U.S. federal income tax purposes, we, our stockholders that are subject to U.S. federal income tax and FAFC will incur significant U.S. federal income tax liabilities.

In connection with the Separation we received a private letter ruling from the IRS to the effect that, among other things, certain internal transactions undertaken in anticipation of the Separation will qualify for favorable treatment under the Internal Revenue Code, and the contribution by us of certain assets of the financial services businesses to FAFC and the pro-rata distribution to our shareholders of the common stock of FAFC will, except for cash received in lieu of fractional shares, qualify as a tax-free transaction for U.S. federal income tax purposes under Sections 355 and 368(a)(1)(D) of the Internal Revenue Code. In addition, we received opinions of tax counsel to similar effect. The ruling and opinions relied on certain facts, assumptions, representations and undertakings from us and FAFC regarding the past and future conduct of the companies' respective businesses and other matters. If any of these facts, assumptions, representations or undertakings is incorrect or not otherwise satisfied, we and our stockholders may not be able to rely on the ruling or the opinions of tax counsel and could be subject to significant tax liabilities. Notwithstanding the private letter ruling and opinions of tax counsel, the IRS could determine on audit that the Separation is taxable if it determines that any of these facts, assumptions, representations or undertakings were not correct or have been violated or if it disagrees with the conclusions in the opinions that were not covered by the private letter ruling, or for other reasons, including as a result of certain significant changes in the stock ownership of us or FAFC after the Separation. If the Separation is determined to be taxable for U.S. federal and state income tax purposes, we and our stockholders that are subject to income tax could incur significant income tax liabilities.

In addition, under the terms of the Tax Sharing Agreement, in the event a transaction were determined to be taxable and such determination were the result of actions taken after the Separation by us or FAFC, the party responsible for such failure would be responsible for all taxes imposed on us or FAFC as a result thereof.

Moreover, the Tax Sharing Agreement generally provides that each party thereto is responsible for any taxes imposed on the other party as a result of the failure of the distribution to qualify as a tax-free transaction under the Code if such failure is attributable to post-Separation actions taken by or in respect of the responsible party or its stockholders, regardless of when the actions occur after the Separation, and the other party consents to such actions or such party obtains a favorable letter ruling or opinion of tax counsel as described above.


22.	In connection with the Separation, we entered into a number of agreements with FAFC setting forth rights and obligations of the parties post-Separation. In addition, certain provisions of these agreements provide protection to FAFC in the event of a change of control of us, which could reduce the likelihood of a potential change of control that our stockholders may consider favorable.

In connection with the Separation, we and FAFC entered into a number of agreements that set forth certain rights and obligations of the parties post-Separation, including the Separation and Distribution Agreement, the Tax Sharing Agreement, the Restrictive Covenants Agreement, certain transition services agreements and leases for our former data center and headquarters facilities in Santa Ana, CA. We possess certain rights under those agreements, including without limitation indemnity rights from certain liabilities allocated to FAFC. The failure of FAFC to perform its obligations under the agreements could have an adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

In addition, the Separation and Distribution Agreement gives FAFC the right to purchase the equity or assets of our entity or entities directly or indirectly owning the real property databases that we currently own upon the occurrence of certain triggering events. The triggering events include the direct or indirect purchase of the databases by a title insurance underwriter (or its affiliate) or an entity licensed as a title insurance underwriter, including a transaction where a title insurance underwriter (or its affiliate) acquires 25% or more of us. The purchase right expires June 1, 2020. Until the expiration of the purchase right, this provision could have the effect of limiting or discouraging an acquisition of us or preventing a change of control that our stockholders might consider favorable. Likewise, if a triggering event occurs, the loss of ownership of our real property database could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, business and results of operations.

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds.

Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities

During the quarter ended September 30, 2015, we determined that we sold shares of our common stock that were not registered with the SEC to certain participants in our dividend reinvestment and direct purchase plan (the "Reinvestment and Purchase Plan"). The Reinvestment and Purchase Plan was initially registered with the SEC but the registration had inadvertently expired before these shares were sold. We terminated the Reinvestment and Purchase Plan in September 2015. Under applicable federal securities laws, participants may have a right to rescind their purchases for an amount equal to the price paid for the securities, plus interest. Generally, the federal statute of limitations applicable to such rescission rights is one year from the date of acquisition of the security but in no event later than three years after the security was bona fide offered to the public. As of August 31, 2015, we estimate that there were less than 1,100 shares of our common stock purchased under the Reinvestment and Purchase Plan (over the one-year period preceding such date) that would be subject to potential rescission rights. Based on our estimates, we do not believe the amount of liability associated with the securities subject to rescission rights is material to our consolidated financial statements.

Purchases of Equity Securities by the Issuer and Affiliated Purchasers

On July 31, 2015, the Board of Directors canceled all prior repurchase authorizations and established a new share repurchase authorization of up to $350.0 million. The new share repurchase authorization replaces the unused portion of our previous share repurchase authorization, which was announced in December 2013. As of September 30, 2015, we had $311.3 million in value of shares remaining that could be purchased in the future under the current authorization. The stock repurchase authorization has no expiration date and repurchases may be made in the open market, in privately negotiated transactions or under a Rule 10b5-1 plan.

Under our Credit Agreement, our stock repurchase capacity is restricted to $150.0 million per fiscal year, with the ability to undertake an additional amount of repurchases in such fiscal year provided that, on a pro forma basis after giving effect to the stock repurchase, our total leverage ratio does not exceed 3.5 to 1.0. In addition, our stock repurchase capacity is limited by the restricted payments covenant in the indenture governing our 7.25% senior notes, as amended. While we continue to preserve the capacity to execute share repurchases under our existing share repurchase authorization, going forward we will strive to pursue a balanced approach to capital allocation and will consider the repurchase of shares of our common shares, the retirement of outstanding debt and the pursuit of strategic acquisitions on an opportunistic basis.
