the call will be accessible to the public by calling 877-303-6648
(domestic) or 970-315-0443 (international); no access code is necessary.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The non-GAAP measures of adjusted EBITDA and adjusted net income
disclosures are not presented in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles (GAAP) and are not intended to be used in lieu of
GAAP presentations of net income (loss). Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP
financial measure that represents GAAP net income (loss) excluding
interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization expenses, stock-based
compensation, contra-revenue and certain items, as applicable, such
as: impairment charges, restructuring charges, impact of
acquisition-related activity (including contingent consideration
changes, compensation expense, basis difference amortization, and
professional service fees), realized gains on sales of previously
impaired securities, gains or losses on sales or disposals of
subsidiaries and other assets, rebranding expense and certain other
items that we do not believe are indicative of our ongoing operating
results.
Adjusted net income is a non-GAAP financial measure that represents GAAP
net income (loss) excluding stock-based compensation expense, the
amortization of acquired identifiable intangibles, contra-revenue, and
certain items, as applicable, such as: impairment charges, restructuring
charges, impact of acquisition-related activity (including contingent
consideration changes, compensation expense, basis difference
amortization, and professional service fees), realized gains on sales of
previously impaired securities, gains or losses on sales or disposals of
subsidiaries and other assets, adjustments to deferred tax asset
valuation allowances, non-cash interest expense, rebranding expense and
certain other items that we do not believe are indicative of our ongoing
operating results. These adjustments to net income (loss), which are
shown before taxes, are adjusted for their tax impact at their
applicable statutory rates.
Adjusted EBITDA and adjusted net income are presented because management
believes that they provide additional information with respect to the
performance of our fundamental business activities and are also
frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested
parties in the evaluation of comparable companies. Adjusted
EBITDA and adjusted net income are also presented because the
acquisition method of accounting can have a negative impact on our GAAP
results because the depreciation and amortization expenses associated
with acquired assets, in particular intangibles which tend to have a
relatively short useful life, can be substantial in the first several
years following an acquisition. As a result, we monitor our adjusted
EBITDA and adjusted net income and other business statistics as a
measure of operating performance in addition to net income (loss) and
the other measures included in our consolidated financial
statements. Management believes the adjusted EBITDA and adjusted net
income information is useful to investors for these reasons. Adjusted
EBITDA and adjusted net income are non-GAAP financial measures and
should not be viewed as an alternative to GAAP measures of
performance. Management believes the most directly comparable GAAP
financial measure for adjusted EBITDA and adjusted net income is GAAP
net income (loss) and has provided a reconciliation of adjusted EBITDA
to GAAP net income (loss) and adjusted net income to GAAP net income
(loss) in this press release.

(a)
|
|
The adjustment for adjusted net income exceeds the adjustment for
adjusted EBITDA as a result of accelerated amortization charges
relating to internally developed software, which are included in the
depreciation adjustment within the adjusted EBITDA reconciliation,
as well as integration items and acquisition items with an interest
component, which are included in the interest adjustment within the
adjusted EBITDA reconciliation.
|
(b)
|
|
The tax impact of adjustments for the three months ended December
31, 2014, is based on a blended tax rate of 37.7% applied to taxable
adjustments. The tax impact of adjustments for the twelve months
ended December 31, 2014 is based on a blended tax rate of 38.3%
applied to taxable adjustments other than gain on sale of investment
which is based on an effective tax rate of 30.9%. Additionally, the
tax impact of adjustments for the twelve months ended December 31,
2014, includes $1.8 million of incremental deferred taxes related to
the acquisition of Dealer.com. The blended tax rates are based upon
the statutory tax rates of 38.6% and 26.5% applied to the
adjustments for U.S. and Canada, respectively.
|
|
|
|
|
|
The tax impact of adjustments for the three and twelve months ended
December 31, 2013, is based on a U.S. statutory tax rate of 37.2%
applied to taxable adjustments other than amortization of acquired
identifiable intangibles and stock-based compensation expense, which
are based on a blended tax rate of 37.1% and 36.9%, respectively,
for the three months ended December 31, 2013, and 37.1% and 36.8%,
respectively, for the twelve months ended December 31, 2013.

A reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP measures is included in our
investor presentation, which also includes the impact of reconciled
items on individual income statement classifications.

(a)
|
|
We consider a dealer to be active in our U.S. network as of a date
if the dealer completed at least one revenue-generating credit
application processing transaction using the U.S. Dealertrack
network during the most recently ended calendar month. The number of
active U.S. dealers is based on the number of dealer accounts as
communicated by lenders on the U.S. Dealertrack network.
|
|
(b)
|
|
We consider a lender to be active in our U.S. network as of a date
if it is accepting credit application data electronically from U.S.
dealers in the U.S. Dealertrack network.
|
|
(c)
|
|
Each lender to dealer relationship represents a pair between an
active U.S. lender and an active U.S. dealer at the end of a given
period.
|
|
(d)
|
|
Represents the number of dealerships in the U.S. and Canada with one
or more active subscriptions at the end of a given period.
Subscriptions to Dealertrack CentralDispatch have been excluded as
these customers include brokers and carriers in addition to dealers.
|
|
(e)
|
|
Represents dealer-based subscription services revenue, including
subscription revenue from partners who include our solutions in
their dealer offerings, divided by average subscribing dealers for a
given period in the U.S. and Canada. Revenue used in the calculation
adds back (excludes) subscription related contra-revenue. In
addition, subscribing dealers and subscription services revenue from
Dealertrack CentralDispatch have been excluded from the calculation
as a majority of these customers are not dealers.
|
|
(f)
|
|
Represents revenue-generated transactions processed in the U.S.
Dealertrack, Dealertrack Aftermarket Services, Registration and
Titling Solutions, Collateral Management Solutions and Dealertrack
Canada networks at the end of a given period.
|
|
(g)
|
|
Represents the average revenue earned per transaction processed in
the U.S. Dealertrack, Dealertrack Aftermarket Services, Registration
and Titling solutions, Collateral Management solutions and
Dealertrack Canada networks during a given period. Revenue used in
the calculation adds back (excludes) transaction related
contra-revenue.
|
|
(h)
|
|
Represents transaction services revenue divided by our estimate of
total new and used car sales for the period in the U.S. and Canada.
Revenue used in this calculation adds back (excludes) transaction
related contra-revenue.
|
|
(i)
|
|
We consider a dealership to be active on our advertising platforms
as of a date if they incurred advertising spend in that month. The
number of advertisers at the end of the period may be impacted by
the timing of manufacturer endorsed campaigns on behalf of their
dealership base, for which there were approximately 225 dealerships
that were part of a short term campaign at December 31, 2014 and
approximately 900 as of September 30, 2014.
|
|
(j)
|
|
Represents advertising services revenue divided by average active
dealerships on our advertising platform for a given period
commencing with the Dealer.com acquisition on March 1, 2014.
