New York, N.Y.—The NASDAQ OMX Group, Inc. (NASDAQ: NDAQ) today reported results for the second quarter of 2015. Second quarter
net revenues were $518 million, down 1% from $523 million in the prior year period, driven primarily by a $29 million negative impact from foreign exchange rates. On an organic basis, excluding the impact of foreign exchange rates and acquisitions,
second quarter net revenues were up 3%, while across the non-trading segments, organic revenue growth was also 3%.
“In the second quarter, Nasdaq
delivered record results and solid earnings growth despite a mixed backdrop for the industry and continued FX headwinds,” said Bob Greifeld, CEO, Nasdaq. “Our customer focused approach to the capital markets industry, including
investors, intermediaries and issuers, delivered solid organic revenue growth despite the low volatility environment.”
Mr. Greifeld
continued, “As we move into the second half of 2015, we look forward to continuing our strong performance in foundational equity listings and trading businesses, working to accelerate growth through product enhancements and other initiatives,
and to launching NFX, a broad-based partnership with leading market participants to bring more significant choice to the energy derivatives market. Nasdaq’s strategic evolution and expanded capabilities have multiplied the opportunities to meet
the needs of our customers, and our focus in meeting these challenges will continue to drive our growth.”
On a non-GAAP basis, second quarter 2015
operating expenses were $281 million, down 3% as compared to the prior year quarter, due to the impact of changes in foreign exchange rates and the result of expense reduction initiatives. On an organic basis excluding the impact of foreign exchange
rates and acquisitions, non-GAAP operating expenses were unchanged in the first half of 2015 compared to the first half of 2014.
“Nasdaq’s
hallmark focus on efficiency, and in particular recent restructuring efforts, have resulted in flat organic expense levels in the first half of the year, meaningfully offsetting the significant impact of elevated foreign exchange headwinds,”
said Lee Shavel, EVP and CFO, Nasdaq. “Growth in earnings and cash flow has been coupled with a 67% increase in the dividend and opportunistic buybacks on the capital return front, continued investment in research and development, and
the acquisition of Dorsey Wright, which is performing well above initial expectations.”

On a GAAP basis, operating expenses were $301 million in the second quarter of 2015, compared to $332 million in
the prior year quarter, and include $20 million of expenses not reflected in non-GAAP operating expenses, including $15 million of amortization expense from acquired intangible assets, and $5 million in charges related to strategic initiatives and
restructuring.
On a non-GAAP basis, net income attributable to Nasdaq for the second quarter of 2015 was $143 million, or $0.83 per diluted share, up
$0.07 compared to $0.76 in the second quarter of 2014. On a GAAP basis, net income attributable to Nasdaq for the second quarter of 2015 was $133 million, or $0.77 per diluted share, compared with $101 million, or $0.59 per diluted share, in the
prior year quarter.
Please refer to our reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP net income, diluted earnings per share, operating income and operating
expenses included in the attached schedules.
The company repurchased 0.5 million shares, or approximately $25 million of our common stock, in the
second quarter of 2015 at an average price of $50.06.
On June 30, 2015, the company had cash and cash equivalents of $324 million and total debt of
$2,281 million, resulting in net debt of $1,957 million. This compares to net debt of $1,870 million at December 31, 2014.
BUSINESS HIGHLIGHTS
Market Services (36% of total net revenues) - Net revenues were $189 million in the second quarter of 2015, down $8 million when compared to
$197 million in the second quarter of 2014. The $8 million year-over-year decrease reflects a $6 million operational increase which was more than offset by a $14 million decrease due to changes in foreign exchange rates.
Equity Derivatives (8% of total net revenues) – Net equity derivative trading and clearing revenues were $44 million in the second
quarter of 2015, down $6 million compared to the second quarter of 2014. The decline in equity derivatives revenue was driven by lower market share in U.S. options, and changes in foreign exchange rates, which more than offset the impact of higher
volumes in European products.
Cash Equities (12% of total net revenues) – Net cash equity trading revenues were $62 million in
the second quarter of 2015, up $6 million compared to the second quarter of 2014. The increase in cash equity revenue resulted from higher U.S. cash equity average capture and U.S./European industry volumes, partially offset by lower market shares
and the impact of changes in foreign exchange rates.
Fixed Income, Currency and Commodities (5% of total net revenues) – Net
FICC trading and clearing revenues were $24 million in the second quarter of 2015, down $7 million from the second quarter of 2014, due to the impact of changes in foreign exchange rates, volume declines in commodities and U.S. fixed income
products, and a scheduled end in licensing revenues from an eSpeed technology customer.
Access and Broker Services (11% of total net
revenues) – Access and broker services revenues totaled $59 million in the second quarter of 2015, down $1 million compared to the second quarter of 2014, as organic revenue increases were more than offset by the impact of changes in
foreign exchange rates.
Information Services (25% of total net revenues) – Revenues were $128 million in the second quarter of 2015, up $5
million from the second quarter of 2014. The $5 million year-over-year increase reflects a $1 million operational increase and an $8 million increase from Dorsey Wright, which was partially offset by a $4 million decrease due to changes in foreign
exchange rates.
2
Data Products (19% of total net revenues) – Data products revenues were $99 million
in the second quarter of 2015, down $2 million compared to the second quarter of 2014, as increased revenue from proprietary and shared tape revenue plans, as well as the inclusion of revenue associated with the Dorsey Wright acquisition were more
than offset by lower audit collections, and the impact of changes in foreign exchange rates.
Index Licensing and Services (6% of total
net revenues) – Index licensing and services revenues were $29 million in the second quarter of 2015, up $7 million from the second quarter of 2014. The revenue growth was driven by the inclusion of revenue associated with the Dorsey Wright
acquisition, and higher revenue derived from exchange traded products licensed to Nasdaq indexes due to increases in Assets Under Management (AUM) in listed products.
Technology Solutions (26% of total net revenues) - Revenues were $135 million in the second quarter of 2015, down $8 million from the second quarter of
2014. The $8 million year-over-year decrease reflects an $8 million decrease due to changes in foreign exchange rates.
Corporate
Solutions (15% of total net revenues) – Corporate solutions revenues were $76 million in the second quarter of 2015, down $4 million from the second quarter of 2014. The corporate solutions revenue decline was due primarily to the impact of
changes in foreign exchange rates, as well as declines in revenues from investor relations products, partially offset by organic growth in governance products revenues.
Market Technology (11% of total net revenues) – Market technology revenues were $59 million in the second quarter of 2015, down $4
million from the second quarter of 2014. Declines were driven by an unfavorable impact from changes in foreign exchange rates and declines in software licensing and support revenues, partially offset by organic growth, in particular from expansion
of SMARTS surveillance. New order intake was $31 million for the second quarter of 2015, and the order backlog at June 30, 2015 was $707 million.
Listing Services (13% of total net revenues) – Revenues were $66 million in the second quarter of 2015, up $6 million compared to the second
quarter of 2014. The $6 million year-over-year increase reflects a $9 million operational increase which was partially offset by a $3 million decrease due to changes in foreign exchange rates. The operational improvement is due to certain pricing
actions and increases in the number of both U.S. and European listed companies.

Amortization expense related to intangible assets results primarily from business combinations. These non-cash expenses are fixed in connection with an acquisition, are then amortized over a number of years after the
acquisition and generally cannot be changed or influenced by management after the acquisition. Management does not consider these expenses for the purpose of evaluating the performance of the business or its managers or when making decisions to
allocate resources. Therefore, such expenses are shown as a non-GAAP adjustment. |
| (2) |
For the three months ended June 30, 2015, merger and strategic initiatives expense primarily related to certain strategic initiatives and our acquisition of Dorsey, Wright & Associates, LLC. For the three months
ended June 30, 2014, merger and strategic initiatives expense primarily related to our acquisition of the Investor Relations, Public Relations and Multimedia Solutions businesses of Thomson Reuters, or the TR Corporate businesses, and other
strategic initiatives. |
| (3) |
During the first quarter of 2015, we performed a comprehensive review of our processes, businesses and systems in a company-wide effort to improve performance, cut costs, and reduce spending. We currently estimate that
we will recognize net pre-tax restructuring charges of $182 million, consisting of the rebranding of our trade name, severance, asset impairments, facility-related costs, and other costs. We recognized restructuring charges of $2 million for the
three months ended June 30, 2015 and $150 million for the three months ended March 31, 2015, with the remaining amount to be recognized through June 2016. The restructuring charge for the three months ended June 30, 2015 includes the reversal of a
previously recorded sublease loss reserve of $10 million for space we lease in New York, New York located at 1500 Broadway. In June 2015, as part of our real estate reorganization plans, management decided to occupy this space. Restructuring charges
are recorded on restructuring plans that have been committed to by management and are, in part, based upon management’s best estimates of future events. Changes to the estimates may require future adjustments to the restructuring liabilities.

We record our investment in The Options Clearing Corporation, or OCC, as an equity method investment. Under the equity method of accounting, we recognize our share of earnings or losses of an equity method investee
based on our ownership percentage. As a result of a new capital plan implemented by OCC, we were not able to determine what our share of OCC’s income was for the year ended December 31, 2014 until the first quarter of 2015, when OCC
financial statements were made available to us. Therefore, we recorded other income of $13 million in the first quarter of 2015 relating to our share of OCC’s income for the year ended December 31, 2014. |
| (5) |
Nasdaq has established a loss reserve of $31 million for litigation arising from the Facebook initial public offering, or IPO, in May 2012. The reserve is intended to cover the estimated amount of a settlement of
class-action litigation initiated on behalf of investors in Facebook common stock on the date of its IPO. The reserve would also cover the anticipated cost of re-opening Nasdaq’s voluntary accommodation program to allow any Nasdaq member that
did not file for compensation in 2013 to submit a claim during the second quarter of 2015, subject to the conditions and limitations that were applicable to claims filed in 2013. Nasdaq expects that the reopening of the accommodation program will
fully resolve claims by UBS Securities against Nasdaq. Nasdaq further anticipates that some or all of amounts paid from the loss reserve will be reimbursed by applicable insurance coverage. |
| (6) |
We previously recorded receivables for expected value added tax, or VAT, refunds based on an approach that had been accepted by the tax authorities in prior years. The tax authorities have since challenged our approach,
and the revised position of the tax authorities was upheld in court during the first quarter of 2015. As a result, in the first quarter of 2015, we recorded a charge of $12 million for previously recorded receivables based on the court decision.
|
| (7) |
During the three months ended June 30, 2014, we recorded a $9 million charge for the early extinguishment of senior notes due in 2015. |

Amortization expense related to intangible assets results primarily from business combinations. These non-cash expenses are fixed in connection with an acquisition, are then amortized over a number of years after the
acquisition and generally cannot be changed or influenced by management after the acquisition. Management does not consider these expenses for the purpose of evaluating the performance of the business or its managers or when making decisions to
allocate resources. Therefore, such expenses are shown as a non-GAAP adjustment. |
| (2) |
For the three months ended June 30, 2015, merger and strategic initiatives expense primarily related to certain strategic initiatives and our acquisition of Dorsey, Wright & Associates, LLC. For the three
months ended June 30, 2014, merger and strategic initiatives expense primarily related to our acquisition of the TR Corporate businesses and other strategic initiatives. |
| (3) |
During the first quarter of 2015, we performed a comprehensive review of our processes, businesses and systems in a company-wide effort to improve performance, cut costs, and reduce spending. We currently estimate that
we will recognize net pre-tax restructuring charges of $182 million, consisting of the rebranding of our trade name, severance, asset impairments, facility-related costs, and other costs. We recognized restructuring charges of $2 million for the
three months ended June 30, 2015 and $150 million for the three months ended March 31, 2015, with the remaining amount to be recognized through June 2016. The restructuring charge for the three months ended June 30, 2015 includes the
reversal of a previously recorded sublease loss reserve of $10 million for space we lease in New York, New York located at 1500 Broadway. In June 2015, as part of our real estate reorganization plans, management decided to occupy this space.
Restructuring charges are recorded on restructuring plans that have been committed to by management and are, in part, based upon management’s best estimates of future events. Changes to the estimates may require future adjustments to the
restructuring liabilities. |

Nasdaq has established a loss reserve of $31 million for litigation arising from the Facebook IPO in May 2012. The reserve is intended to cover the estimated amount of a settlement of class-action litigation initiated
on behalf of investors in Facebook common stock on the date of its IPO. The reserve would also cover the anticipated cost of re-opening Nasdaq’s voluntary accommodation program to allow any Nasdaq member that did not file for compensation in
2013 to submit a claim during the second quarter of 2015, subject to the conditions and limitations that were applicable to claims filed in 2013. Nasdaq expects that the reopening of the accommodation program will fully resolve claims by UBS
Securities against Nasdaq. Nasdaq further anticipates that some or all of amounts paid from the loss reserve will be reimbursed by applicable insurance coverage. |
| (5) |
We previously recorded receivables for expected VAT refunds based on an approach that had been accepted by the tax authorities in prior years. The tax authorities have since challenged our approach, and the revised
position of the tax authorities was upheld in court during the first quarter of 2015. As a result, in the first quarter of 2015, we recorded a charge of $12 million for previously recorded receivables based on the court decision. |
| (6) |
During the three months ended June 30, 2014, we recorded a $9 million charge for the early extinguishment of senior notes due in 2015. |
