Segment Highlights

U.S. Information Services (USIS)

Total USIS revenue was $239 million, an increase of 14 percent compared with the second quarter of 2014, driven by robust revenue growth across all platforms. Incremental revenue from acquisitions accounted for a 2.1 percent increase in USIS revenue. Online Data Services revenue was $159 million, an increase of 12 percent, driven primarily by an increase in credit report volumes and strong double-digit growth in TLO. Marketing Services revenue was $35 million, an increase of 10 percent, due primarily to an increase in demand for custom data sets and archive information and revenue from recent acquisitions. Decision Services revenue was $44 million, an increase of 28 percent, due primarily to revenue growth in healthcare, financial services and insurance markets and revenue from acquisitions.

Operating income was $44 million, an increase of 59 percent compared with the second quarter of 2014. Adjusted Operating Income was $84 million, an increase of 11 percent compared with the second quarter of 2014. The increase in Adjusted Operating Income was due primarily to the increase in revenue along with savings from the initiative to transform our technology platform, partially offset by investments in key strategic growth initiatives and additional depreciation and amortization.

International

International revenue was $68 million, an increase of 6 percent (19 percent on a constant currency basis) compared with the second quarter of 2014, driven by double-digit local currency revenue growth in both developed and emerging markets, offset by the impact of foreign exchange rates. Incremental revenue from the consolidation of CIBIL accounted for a 1.6 percent increase in International revenue. Developed markets revenue was $24 million, an increase of 3 percent (12 percent on a constant currency basis) compared with the second quarter of 2014. Emerging markets revenue was $44 million, an increase of 7 percent (23 percent on a constant currency basis) compared with the second quarter of 2014.

Operating income was $2 million, a decrease of 60 percent compared with the second quarter of 2014. Adjusted Operating Income was $17 million, approximately in line with the second quarter of 2014. The increase in revenue was offset primarily by investments in key strategic growth initiatives, along with additional depreciation and amortization. Excluding the impact of foreign exchange rates, Adjusted Operating Income increased 11 percent.

Consumer Interactive

Consumer Interactive revenue was $76 million, an increase of 31 percent compared with the second quarter of 2014, driven by an increase in revenue from both the direct and indirect channels.

Operating income was $28 million, an increase of 50 percent compared with the second quarter of 2014. Adjusted Operating Income was $29 million, an increase of 43 percent compared with the second quarter of 2014. The increase in Adjusted Operating Income was driven primarily by the increase in revenue, partially offset by an increase in advertising.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash and cash equivalents were $758 million at June 30, 2015 and $78 million at December 31, 2014. As a result of the IPO, TransUnion received net proceeds of approximately $715 million on June 30, 2015 and used $62 million of the proceeds to prepay outstanding borrowings under the existing revolving credit facility, as well as accrued interest and other costs associated with the new credit facility. TransUnion also entered into a new credit facility effective June 30, 2015, which provided for a new $350 million Term Loan A and a new $210 million revolving credit facility, which replaced the previous $190 million facility.

On July 15, 2015, TransUnion used the net proceeds from the IPO and new Term Loan A to redeem the $600 million 9.625% senior notes and $400 million 8.125% senior notes, including accrued and unpaid interest plus a call premium. The remainder of the net proceeds was used to pay other costs related to the transaction.

For the six months ended June 30, 2015, cash provided by operating activities was $117 million compared with $46 million for the same period in 2014. Cash used in investing activities was $77 million compared with $121 million for the same period in 2014. Capital expenditures were $68 million compared with $74 million for the same period in 2014, due to a decrease in spending to upgrade our corporate headquarters facility. Total capital expenditures are expected to be lower in 2015 than 2014 as a percentage of revenue as the improvements to our corporate headquarters are completed. Cash provided by financing activities was $642 million compared $58 million for the same period in 2014. This increase was primarily due to the net IPO proceeds of approximately $715 million, partially offset by debt repayments.

Financial Outlook

For full year 2015, revenue is expected to be approximately $1.455 billion, or up approximately 11.5 percent compared with the full year of 2014. Adjusted EBITDA is expected to be approximately $510 million, an increase of approximately 12 percent compared with the full year of 2014. These growth rates include approximately 2 points of negative impact from foreign exchange rates.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This earnings release presents changes in revenue on a constant currency basis, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, segment Adjusted Operating Income, segment Adjusted Operating Margin, Adjusted Effective Tax Rate, Adjusted Net Income (Loss) and Adjusted Earnings per Share. These are important financial measures for the Company but are not financial measures as defined by GAAP. We present these financial measures as supplemental measures of our operating performance because we believe they provide meaningful information regarding our performance and provide a basis to compare operating results between periods. In addition, our board of directors and executive management team use Adjusted EBITDA as a compensation measure. These financial measures should be reviewed in conjunction with the relevant GAAP financial measures and are not presented as alternative measures of GAAP. Other companies in our industry may define or calculate these measures differently than we do, limiting their usefulness as comparative measures. Because of these limitations, these non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation or as substitutes for performance measures calculated in accordance with GAAP, including revenue, operating income, operating margin, effective tax rate, net income (loss) attributable to the Company, earnings per share or cash provided by operating activities. Reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are presented in the attached Schedules.

Note: The adjusted provision for income taxes is not intended to present the tax provision we would have recorded had our income before income taxes been the same as the adjusted income before income taxes shown above. We estimated the effect on the tax provision of excluding certain pre-tax and tax-provision-only items individually rather than reflecting the impact of such adjustments to other assumptions and estimates inherent in our tax provision. We continued to assume that we will fully utilize domestic net operating loss carryforwards but not foreign tax credits. We also assumed no changes to our capital structure that existed for each period reported. If these assumptions and estimates were changed, the tax adjustments could be materially different from what is disclosed.

                                                                            
(1) Tax rates used to calculate the tax expense impact are based on the     
    nature of each item.                                                    
(2) Eliminates impact of certain adjustments related to our deferred tax    
    liability for unremitted foreign earnings, including the lapse of the   
    look-through rule under Subpart F of the Internal Revenue Code and a    
    discrete change from foreign tax credit to foreign tax deduction        
    methodology in 2014.                                                    
(3) Eliminates impact of state tax rate changes on deferred taxes, valuation
    allowances on foreign net operating losses, and valuation allowances on 
    capital losses and other discrete adjustments.
