Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

NOTE 1 — ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Altisource Portfolio Solutions S.A., together with its subsidiaries, (which may be referred to as Altisource, the Company, we, us or our) is a provider of services focused on high-value, technology-enabled, knowledge-based solutions principally related to real estate and mortgage portfolio management, asset recovery and customer relationship management.

We are publicly traded on the NASDAQ Global Select market under the symbol ASPS. We were incorporated under the laws of Luxembourg on November 4, 1999 as Ocwen Luxembourg S.à r.l., renamed Altisource Portfolio Solutions S.à r.l. on May 12, 2009 and converted into Altisource Portfolio Solutions S.A. on June 5, 2009. We became a publicly traded company as of August 10, 2009 (the “Separation”). Prior to the Separation, our businesses were wholly-owned by Ocwen Financial Corporation (“Ocwen”).

We conduct our operations through three reporting segments: Mortgage Services, Financial Services and Technology Services. In addition, we report our corporate related expenditures as a separate segment (see Note 17 for a description of our business segments).

Basis of Presentation

Our condensed consolidated financial statements include the assets and liabilities, revenues and expenses directly attributable to our operations. All significant inter-company and inter-segment transactions and accounts have been eliminated upon consolidation. Certain amounts disclosed in prior period statements have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.

In February 2010, we acquired the Mortgage Partnership of America, L.L.C. (“MPA”), the manager of a national alliance of community mortgage bankers, correspondent lenders and suppliers of mortgage products and services that does business as Lenders One Mortgage Cooperative (“Lenders One”). The management agreement between MPA and Lenders One, pursuant to which MPA is the management company of Lenders One, represents a variable interest in a variable interest entity. MPA determined it is the primary beneficiary of Lenders One as it has the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact Lenders One’s economic performance and the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits from Lenders One. As a result, Lenders One is presented in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements on a consolidated basis with the interests of the members reflected as Non-controlling Interest on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. At September 30, 2011, Lenders One had total assets of $3.6 million and liabilities of less than $0.1 million.

We have prepared our condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of SEC Regulation S-X. Accordingly, these financial statements do not include all of the information and notes required by GAAP for complete consolidated financial statements. In the opinion of management, all normal recurring adjustments considered necessary to fairly state the results for the interim periods presented have been included. The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of our condensed consolidated financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto contained in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010, filed with the SEC on February 18, 2011, which contains a summary of our significant accounting policies. Certain footnote detail is also omitted from the condensed consolidated financial statements unless there is a material change from the information included in the Form 10-K.

Investment in Equity Affiliate

We utilize the equity method to account for investments in equity securities where we have the ability to exercise significant influence over operating and financial policies of the investee. We include a proportionate share of earnings and/or losses of equity method investees in Equity Income (Loss) in Affiliates, net which is included in Other Income (Expense), net in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. See Note 8 for additional information.

ALTISOURCE PORTFOLIO SOLUTIONS S.A.
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(continued)

Acquisitions

In April 2011, we acquired Springhouse, LLC (“Springhouse”) an appraisal management company that utilizes a nationwide panel of appraisers to provide real estate appraisals principally to mortgage originators, including the members of Lenders One, and real estate asset managers for $1.8 million.

In July 2011, we acquired the assembled workforce of a sub-contractror (“Tracmail”) in India that performed asset recovery services for $2.4 million.

See Note 3 for additional information.

Foreign Currency Translation

Our reporting currency is the U.S. dollar. Other foreign currency assets and liabilities that are considered monetary items are translated at exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date. Foreign currency revenues and expenses are translated at transaction date exchange rates. These exchange gains and losses are included in the determination of net income.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The fair value of financial instruments, which primarily include Cash and Cash Equivalents, Accounts Receivable, net, Restricted Cash and Accounts Payable and Accrued Expenses at September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, are carried at amounts that approximate their fair value due to the short-term nature of these amounts.

Additionally, a put option arrangement was issued to the predecessor owners of MPA. The arrangement, which expires in February 2014, allows the holders to put a portion of the Altisource shares issued as consideration to Altisource at a predetermined price. The fair value calculation is deemed to be a Level 3 calculation. The fair value of the put option at September 30, 2011 of $0.1 million was valued using the following assumptions:


	Assumptions

Risk-free Interest Rate		0.110% – 0.430	%
Expected Stock Price Volatility		25% – 37	%
Expected Dividend Yield		—
Expected Option Life (in years)		0.5 – 2.5
Contractual Life (in years)		—
Fair Value		$0.0 – $0.63

The put option agreement is a written derivative valued similar to stock options and is included within Other Non-current Liabilities on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. The fair value of the put option agreements will be determined each quarter until such puts are either exercised or forfeited. Any changes in value are included as a component of Other Income (Expense), net in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

NOTE 2 — TRANSACTIONS WITH RELATED PARTIES

Ocwen remains our largest customer. Following the date of Separation, Ocwen is contractually obligated to purchase certain Mortgage Services and Technology Services from us under service agreements. These agreements extend for eight years from the Separation, subject to termination under certain provisions. Ocwen is not restricted from redeveloping these services. We settle amounts with Ocwen on a daily, weekly or monthly basis based upon the nature of the services and when the service is completed.

ALTISOURCE PORTFOLIO SOLUTIONS S.A.
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(continued)

Ocwen, or services derived from Ocwen’s loan servicing portfolio, as a percentage of each of our segment revenues and as a percentage of consolidated revenues was as follows for the three and nine months ended September 30:


	Three Months Ended						Nine months Ended
	September 30,						September 30,
	2011			2010			2011			2010

Mortgage Services		71	%		70	%		73	%		73	%
Technology Services		38	%		36	%		38	%		36	%
Financial Services		<1	%		<1	%		<1	%		<1	%
Consolidated Revenue		58	%		51	%		57	%		50	%

We record revenues we earn from Ocwen under the various long-term servicing contracts at rates we believe to be market rates as they are consistent with one or more of the following: the fees we charge to other customers for comparable services; the rates Ocwen pays to other service providers; fees commensurate with market surveys prepared by unaffiliated firms; and prices charged by our competitors. As of January 1, 2011, we modified our pricing for IT Infrastructure Services within our Technology Services segment from a rate card model primarily based on headcount to a fully loaded costs plus mark-up methodology.

Transition Services

In connection with the Separation, Altisource and Ocwen entered into a Transition Services agreement under which services in such areas as human resources, vendor management, corporate services, six sigma, quality assurance, quantitative analytics, treasury, accounting, risk management, legal, strategic planning, compliance and other areas are provided to the counterparty for up to two years from the date of Separation. The agreement was subsequently extended in August 2011 for certain services for an additional year. For the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, Altisource billed Ocwen $1.7 million and $1.2 million respectively ($0.8 million and $0.5 million for the third quarter of 2011 and 2010, respectively), and Ocwen billed Altisource $1.4 million and $0.8 million respectively ($0.5 million and $0.2 million for the third quarter of 2011 and 2010, respectively) for services provided under this agreement. These amounts are reflected as a component of Selling, General and Administrative Expenses in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

NOTE 3 — ACQUISITIONS

The results of operations of the following acquisitions have been included in our consolidated results from the respective acquisition dates. The acquisitions did not have a material effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Acquisition-related transaction costs are included in Selling, General and Administrative Expenses in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Springhouse

In April 2011, we acquired Springhouse an appraisal management company that utilizes a nationwide panel of appraisers to provide real estate appraisals principally to mortgage originators, including the members of Lenders One, and real estate asset managers.

(a)		Prior to our acquisition of Nationwide Credit, Inc. (“NCI”) in 2007, NCI completed an acquisition which created tax-deductible goodwill that amortizes for tax purposes over time. When we acquired NCI in 2007, we recorded a lesser amount of goodwill for financial reporting purposes than what had previously been recorded at NCI for tax purposes. This difference between the amount of goodwill recorded for financial reporting purposes and the amount recorded for taxes is referred to as “Component 2” goodwill and it resulted in our recording periodic reductions first to our book goodwill balance in our consolidated financial statements. As our book goodwill balance was fully written off at December 31, 2010, we continue to amortize the remaining Component 2 goodwill for U.S. tax purposes by reducing certain intangible assets by the remaining tax benefits of the Component 2 goodwill as they are realized in our tax returns. The amount amortized was $2.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011. The balance of Component 2 goodwill remaining was $7.1 million as of September 30, 2011 which should generate $4.3 million of reductions of intangible assets when the benefit can be realized for U.S. tax purposes.

Amortization expense for definite lived intangible assets was $4.0 million and $4.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively ($1.3 million and $1.4 million for the third quarter of 2011 and 2010, respectively). Amortization expense is estimated to be $5.3 million for 2011, $5.0 million for 2012, $4.8 million for 2013, $4.5 million for 2014 and $4.4 million for 2015.

NOTE 8 — INVESTMENT IN EQUITY AFFILIATE

Correspondent One S.A. (“Correspondent One”) facilitates the purchase of closed conforming and government guaranteed residential mortgages from approved mortgage bankers. Correspondent One provides members of Lenders One additional avenues to sell loans beyond Lenders One’s preferred investor arrangements and the members’ own network of loan buyers. We have significant influence over the general operations of Correspondent One consistent with our 49% ownership level and therefore account for our investment under the equity method. We have no additional funding commitments to Correspondent One.

Correspondent One is in the initial phases of building its operations and therefore is expected to operate at a loss into 2012. The Net loss on this investment using the equity method was $0.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 (all in the third quarter). The following table presents summarized financial information for Correspondent One which had no revenues as of September 30^th as no loans were sold:

During 2009, we accrued facility closure costs (included in Other Current and Other Non-current Liabilities in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet) primarily consisting of lease exit costs (expected to be paid through 2014) and severance for the closure of two facilities. The following table summarizes the activity, all recorded in our Financial Services segment, for the nine months ended September 30, 2011:

NOTE 11 — STOCK BASED COMPENSATION

We have issued stock-based awards in the form of stock options for certain employees and officers. We recorded total stock compensation expense of $2.1 million both for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010 ($0.7 million and $1.2 million for the third quarter of 2011 and 2010, respectively). The compensation expense is principally included in Selling, General and Administrative Expenses in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Below is a summary of the different types of stock-based awards issued under our stock plans:

Stock Options

Service-based Options. These options are granted at fair market value on the date of grant. The options generally vest over four years with equal annual cliff-vesting and expire on the earlier of 10 years after the date of grant or following termination of service. A total of 1.1 million service-based awards were outstanding at September 30, 2011.

Market-based Options. These option grants have two components each of which vest only upon the achievement of certain criteria. The first component, which we refer to internally as “ordinary performance” grants, consists of two-thirds of the market-based grant and begins to vest if the stock price realizes a compounded annual gain of at least 20% over the exercise price, so long as the stock price is at least double the exercise price. The remaining third of the market-based options, which we refer to internally as “extraordinary performance” grants, begins to vest if the stock price realizes a compounded annual gain of at least 25% over the exercise price, so long as it is at least triple the exercise price. The vesting schedule for all market-based awards is 25% upon achievement of the criteria and the remaining 75% in three equal annual installments. A total of 2.2 million market-based awards were outstanding at September 30, 2011.

The Company granted 0.2 million stock options (at an average price of $33.15) and 0.9 million stock options (at an average price of $23.54) during the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

The fair value of the service-based options was determined using the Black-Scholes options pricing model while a lattice (binomial) model was used to determine the fair value of the market-based options using the following assumptions as of the grant date:


	September 30, 2011						September 30, 2010
	Black-Scholes			Binominal			Black-Scholes			Binominal

Risk-free Interest Rate		1.69%–1.93	%		0.04%–3.03	%		2.82%–3.20	%		0.02%–3.66	%

Expected Stock Price Volatility		48	%		55.70%–55.80	%		48	%		52	%
Expected Dividend Yield		—			—			—			—

Expected Option Life (in years)		6.25			—			7			—
Contractual Life (in years)		—			14			—			10

Fair Value	$	16.33–$17.85		$	16.91–$20.39		$	11.71–$13.00		$	10.05–$12.35

The following table summarizes the weighted-average fair value of stock options granted, and the total intrinsic value of stock options exercised:


	September 30
(in thousands, except per share amounts)	2011		2010

Weighted-Average Fair Value at Date of Grant Per Share	$	17.66	$	11.60
Intrinsic Value of Options Exercised	$	4,193	$	5,024
Fair Value of Options Vested	$	2,240	$	208

Stock-based compensation expense is recorded net of estimated forfeiture rates ranging from 1% to 3%.

As of September 30, 2011, estimated unrecognized compensation costs related to share-based payments amounted to $7.7 million which we expect to recognize over a weighted-average remaining requisite service period of approximately 3.2 years.

Stock Repurchase Authorization

On May 19, 2010, our shareholders authorized us to purchase up to 3.8 million shares of our common stock in the open market. From authorization through September 30, 2011, we have purchased 1.7 million shares of our common stock on the open market at an average price of $31.02, leaving 2.1 million shares still available for purchase under the program.

NOTE 15 — EARNINGS PER SHARE

Basic earnings per share (“EPS”) is computed by dividing income available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS reflects the assumed conversion of all dilutive securities.

Basic and diluted earnings per share for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010 are calculated as follows:


	Three Months Ended				Nine Months Ended
	September 30,				September 30,
(in thousands)	2011		2010		2011		2010

Net Income Attributable to Altisource	$	17,171	$	9,832	$	45,381	$	32,485

Weighted-Average Common Shares Outstanding, Basic		24,341		25,318		24,602		25,080

Dilutive Effect of Restricted Shares		—		—		—		3

Weighted-Average Common Shares Outstanding, Diluted		25,489		26,544		25,720		26,168


Earnings Per Share
Basic	$	0.71	$	0.39	$	1.84	$	1.30

Diluted	$	0.67	$	0.37	$	1.76	$	1.24

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011, an immaterial amount of options that were anti-dilutive have been excluded from the computation of diluted EPS (0.2 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010). These options were anti-dilutive because their exercise price was greater than the average market price of our stock. Also excluded from the computation of diluted EPS for each of the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010 are 0.7 million options granted for shares that are issuable upon the achievement of certain market and performance criteria related to our stock price and an annualized rate of return to investors that have not been met at this point.

NOTE 16 — COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Litigation

The Company is from time to time involved in legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business. We record a liability for litigation if an unfavorable outcome is probable and the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated, including expected insurance coverage. For proceedings where a range of loss is determined, we record a best estimate of loss within the range. When legal proceedings are material we disclose the nature of the litigation and to the extent possible the estimate of loss or range of loss. In the opinion of management, after consultation with legal counsel and considering insurance coverage where applicable, the outcome of current legal proceedings both individually and in the aggregate will not have a material impact on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

NOTE 17 — SEGMENT REPORTING

Our business segments are based upon our organizational structure which focuses primarily on the services offered and are consistent with the internal reporting that we use to evaluate operating performance and to assess the allocation of our resources by our Chief Executive Officer.

ALTISOURCE PORTFOLIO SOLUTIONS S.A.

(continued)

We classify our businesses into three reportable segments. Mortgage Services consists of mortgage portfolio management services that span the mortgage lifecycle. Financial Services principally consists of unsecured asset recovery and customer relationship management. Technology Services consists of modular, comprehensive integrated technological solutions for loan servicing, vendor management and invoice presentment and payment as well as providing infrastructure support. In addition, our Corporate Items and Eliminations segment includes eliminations of transactions between the reporting segments and this segment also includes costs recognized by us related to corporate support functions such as finance, legal, human resources, six sigma and quality assurances.

In 2011, we reorganized our reporting structure in that certain services that were originally part of the Mortgage Services Segment are now classified as part of Financial Services. Prior periods have been recast to conform with the current year presentation.

OVERVIEW

Our Business

We are a provider of services focused on high-value, technology-enabled, knowledge-based solutions principally related to mortgage and real estate portfolio management, asset recovery and customer relationship management.

We classify our business into three reportable segments:

Mortgage Services: Consists of services that span the mortgage lifecycle and are typically outsourced by loan servicers and originators. In 2011, we reorganized our reporting structure in that certain services originally part of Component Services and Other in this segment are now classified as part of Customer Relationship Management in our Financial Services segment. Following this change, Component Service and Other was renamed Origination Management Services. Origination Management Services includes MPA, our legacy contract underwriting business and our origination fulfillment operations currently under development. Prior periods have been recast to conform to the current year presentation.

Financial Services: Consists primarily of unsecured asset recovery and customer relationship management. As discussed above, Customer Relationship Management now includes certain services that were originally recorded as part of Mortgage Services.

Technology Services: Consists of modular, comprehensive integrated technological solutions for loan servicing, vendor management, invoice presentment and payment as well as providing infrastructure support. In 2011 we began to report our Consumer Analytics group within Technology Services. Previously this group was included in Corporate.

Stock Repurchase Plan

In May 2010, our shareholders authorized us to purchase 15% of our outstanding share capital, or 3.8 million shares of common stock, in the open market. From authorization through September 30, 2011, we have purchased 1.7 million shares of common stock on the open market at an average price of $31.02, leaving 2.1 million shares available for purchase under the program.

Acquisitions

In April 2011, we acquired Springhouse, an appraisal management company that utilizes a nationwide panel of appraisers to provide real estate appraisals principally to mortgage originators, including the members of Lenders One, and real estate asset managers. In July 2011, we acquired the assembled workforce of a sub-contractor in India that performs asset recovery services. See Note 3 to the condensed consolidated financial statements.

Factors Affecting Comparability

The following additional items may impact the comparability of our results:

	•		In February 2010, we acquired all of the outstanding membership interest of MPA which was formed with the purpose of managing Lenders One (see Note 1 to the condensed consolidated financial statements). The results of operations of Lenders One have been consolidated under the variable interest model since the acquisition date; and

	•		Effective January 2011, we modified our pricing for IT Infrastructure Services within our Technology Services segment from a rate card model primarily based on headcount to a fully loaded cost plus mark-up methodology. This new model applies to the infrastructure amounts charged to Ocwen as well as internal allocations of infrastructure cost. The impact of this change is discussed further in the Technology Services segment.

CONSOLIDATED RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Summary Consolidated Results

Following is a discussion of our consolidated results of operations for the periods indicated. In evaluating performance, we neutralize the impact of pass-through items for which we earn no margin by excluding reimbursable expenses and non-controlling interests where appropriate and calculating all margins based upon Service Revenue.

The following table sets forth information regarding our results of operations for the periods ended September 30, 2011 and 2010:

We recognized $230.4 million of Service Revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2011, a 33% increase over the prior year. For the quarter, we recognized $86.2 million of Service Revenue, a 19% increase when compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2011. This sequential growth in Service Revenue was primarily due to an increase in the fulfillment of services to properties in pre-foreclosure (e.g., valuation, pre-foreclosure inspections), seasonally higher sales of real estate owned (REO) properties and expansion of insurance services. Sequential growth in Service Revenue for Technology Services improved due to Ocwen’s acquisition of the Litton platform and completion of certain development projects. The decline for Financial Services was principally due to seasonality.

We recognized $45.4 million in Income Attributable to Altisource or $1.76 per diluted share, for the nine months ended September 30, 2011, a 42% increase in diluted earnings per share over the same period in 2010. For the quarter, Income Attributable to Altisource was $17.2 million or $0.67 per diluted share, a 29% increase in diluted earnings per share when compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2011.

Gross margin for the quarter remained flat when compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2011 as the increase in gross margin attributable to Technology Services was offset by a decline in gross margin attributable to Mortgage Services. This was due to Mortgage Services segment’s mix of services delivered and the build out of infrastructure to support Ocwen’s September 1, 2011 boarding of the Litton portfolio. As a result of the boarding of the Litton portfolio, we delivered in the third quarter a proportionately higher percentage of services to homes in pre-foreclosure. For these services, the margins are generally lower. The delivery of pre-foreclosure services, however, is a strong leading indicator of future referrals of higher margin foreclosure and asset management services.

From an operating margin perspective, margins on a consolidated basis improved in the quarter when compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2011 by 300 basis points to 25% of Service Revenue. This reflects faster growth in the higher margin Mortgage Services segment as well as leveraging of the Corporate infrastructure.

For the fourth quarter, Service Revenue should continue to improve when compared to the third quarter based principally upon the expected growth in foreclosure and asset management related referrals.

Revenue

The following table presents our Revenue for the periods ended September 30, 2011 and 2010:


	Three Months Ended September 30,									Nine Months Ended September 30,

Technology Services		5,561			4,660			19			15,615			13,635			15

In evaluating our performance, we utilize Service Revenue which consists of amounts attributable to our fee based services. Reimbursable Expenses and Cooperative Non-controlling Interests are pass-through items for which we earn no margin. Reimbursable Expenses consists of amounts that we incur on behalf of our customers in performing our fee based services, but we pass such costs directly on to our customers without any additional markup. Cooperative Non-controlling Interests is attributable to the members of Lenders One.

The growth in Service Revenue continues to be primarily attributable to Mortgage Services for the periods presented and is the result of the development of mortgage and real estate portfolio management services across our national platform and the growth in loans serviced by Ocwen. The Technology Services segment also benefited from the growth in loans serviced by Ocwen principally due to revenue tied to loan volume. Financial Services revenue declined in both periods presented compared to the same periods in 2010 principally due to a decline in revenues from one of the segment’s largest customers. The decline was in part the result of the client shifting work to our global delivery platform.

Our revenues are seasonal. More specifically, Financial Services revenue tends to be higher in the first quarter and generally declines throughout the year. Mortgage Services revenue is impacted by REO sales which tend to be at their lowest level during fall and winter months and highest during spring and summer months.

Cost of Revenue

Cost of Revenue principally includes payroll and employee benefits associated with personnel employed in customer service and operations roles, fees paid to external providers related to the provision of services, reimbursable expenses, technology and telephony expenses as well as depreciation and amortization of operating assets. The components of Cost of Revenue were as follows for the periods ended September 30, 2011 and 2010:


	Three Months Ended September 30,									Nine Months Ended September 30,
							% Better									% Better
(in thousands)	2011			2010			/(worse)			2011			2010			/(worse)

Compensation and Benefits	$	22,497		$	15,829			(42	)	$	59,296		$	45,519			(30	)
Outside Fees and Services		21,528			15,311			(41	)		57,221			41,092			(39	)

Cost of Revenue	$	73,339			48,913			(50	)	$	191,385			132,642			(44	)


Gross Profit Percentage:
Gross Profit/Service Revenue		42	%		46	%					44	%		45	%

For the nine months ended September 30, 2011, our gross margin percentage has remained fairly stable although we have and continue to make significant investments in personnel and technology to support our growth plans. Our gross margins are impacted by the timing and mix of services delivered which, in turn, are impacted by the timing of when loans are boarded by Ocwen. In the third quarter of 2011, we saw a significant increase in services related to homes in pre-foreclosure (e.g., valuation and inspection services) which is typical for newly boarded loan portfolios but for which gross margins are lower when compared to other types of services we deliver within our Mortgage Services segment. The provision of pre-foreclosure services though is generally a leading indicator for default and asset management referrals.

When compared to the same periods in 2010, the substantial increase in Cost of Revenue for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 is consistent with the growth in our Mortgage Services segment as we expanded our mortgage and real estate portfolio management services nationally and increased our personnel to support the growth in portfolios serviced by Ocwen.

Compensation and Benefits costs for the quarter ended September 30, 2011 increased sequentially as expected as we hired significant personnel to support the boarding of the Litton portfolio by Ocwen on September 1, 2011 and as we continue to invest in personnel for our new insurance and origination services that are under development and/or roll-out.

Outside Fees and Services reflects external vendor costs for which we are not reimbursed. These costs are principally incurred by our Mortgage Services segment in the provision of valuation and pre-foreclosure services. The increase in both periods presented over the same periods in 2010 reflects the growth in Ocwen’s portfolio. Sequentially, these costs increased due to the delivery of pre-foreclosure services as a result of the boarding of the Litton platform by Ocwen.

Technology and Communication costs continue to increase due to ongoing investment in personnel and licenses to support the growth of the businesses.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses include payroll, employee benefits, occupancy and other costs associated with personnel employed in executive, sales, marketing, human resources and finance roles. This category also includes professional fees, depreciation and amortization on non-operating assets. The components of Selling, General and Administrative Expenses were as follows for the periods ended September 30, 2011 and 2010:


	Three Months Ended September 30,									Nine Months Ended September 30,
							% Better									% Better
(in thousands)	2011			2010			/(worse)			2011			2010			/(worse)

Compensation and Benefits	$	5,530		$	5,250			(5	)	$	17,275		$	13,255			(30	)
Professional Services		1,479			1,812			18			4,636			5,869			21
Occupancy Related Costs		4,449			4,137			(8	)		12,008			9,978			(20	)
Amortization of Intangible Assets		1,339			1,450			8			3,952			4,089			3
Depreciation and Amortization		483			598			19			1,679			869			(93	)
Other		2,049			1,483			(38	)		5,937			5,215			(14	)

Total Selling, General & Administrative Expenses	$	15,329		$	14,730			(4	)	$	45,487		$	39,275			(16	)


Operating Percentage:
Income from Operations/Service Revenue		25	%		22	%					24	%		22	%

Our operating margin percentage in both periods increased over the same periods in 2010. Selling, General and Administrative costs have stabilized during 2011 even as our businesses have substantially grown. Thus leveraging of our Corporate infrastructure costs along with growth in our more profitable segments has contributed to the increase in margins.

Income Before Income Tax

The following table presents income before income tax including the amount attributable to Altisource by segment:


	Three Months Ended						Nine Months Ended
	September 30,						September 30,
(in thousands)	2011			2010			2011			2010

As Percent of Service Revenue		22	%		20	%		22	%		20	%

On a consolidated basis, income before income tax attributable to Altisource grew in both periods over the same periods in 2010 principally as a result of the development of mortgage and real estate portfolio management services and the growth of Ocwen’s servicing portfolio.

Income Tax Provision

The Company recognized an income tax provision of $5.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 representing an effective tax rate of 9.7%. The income tax provision computed by applying the Luxembourg statutory tax rate of 28.8% differs from the effective tax rate primarily because of the effect of a favorable tax ruling as well as the mix of income and losses in multiple taxing jurisdictions.

SEGMENT RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following section provides a discussion of pretax results of operations of our business segments for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010. Transactions between segments are accounted for as third-party arrangements for purposes of presenting Segment Results of Operations. Intercompany transactions primarily consist of information technology infrastructure services and charges for the use of certain REALSuite applications from our Technology Service segment to our other two segments. Generally, we reflect these charges within technology and communication in the segment receiving the services, except for consulting services, which we reflect in professional services.

Our Mortgage Services segment continues to be the primary driver of growth for both year to date and quarterly results. As previously discussed, in 2011 we reorganized our reporting structure in that certain services that were originally part of Component Services and Other are now classified as part of Customer Relationship Management in our Financial Services segment.

The growth in Mortgage Services in both periods presented over the same periods in 2010 was due to the development of mortgage and real estate portfolio services and growth in the loan portfolio serviced by Ocwen. On average, Ocwen serviced 482,973 loans for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 compared to 373,248 for the nine months ended September 30, 2010. The growth in loans was principally driven by Ocwen’s acquisition of the HomEq portfolio which boarded on REALServicing in September 2010 and the Litton portfolio which was partially boarded on September 1, 2011. We expect the remaining loans associated with the Litton portfolio to board on REALServicing in November 2011.

Sequentially, Service Revenue increased $13.4 million or 29% with each service group recognizing an increase in the quarter. Closing and insurance services recorded the most significant increases in Service Revenue sequentially driven by the development of services and increase in title searches attributable to pre-foreclosure activities. Additionally, asset management services and valuation services benefited from services attributable to pre-foreclosure activities. We continued to see elevated levels of REO sales as a result of seasonality and on-going process improvements meant to reduce the time to sell an REO.

An initiative for 2011 is the formation of Correspondent One which provides members of Lenders One additional avenues to sell loans beyond Lenders One’s preferred investor arrangements and the members’ own network of loan buyers. We anticipate this will result in improved capital markets execution for the members and facilitate the sale of our services to the members. As of July 2011, we fulfilled our funding obligations to Correspondent One and account for such investment under the equity method. In the third quarter of 2011, we recognized a net loss of $0.4 million attributable to Correspondent One. We expect Correspondent One to incur losses until the second half of 2012.

We continue to believe the development of origination services is important to balancing our service offerings and have invested significantly in personnel, technology and management to ensure we can perform these services in-line with customer expectations. When appropriate, we will consider small complementary acquisitions similar in nature to the second quarter acquisition of Springhouse to facilitate the growth of origination services. We will continue to leverage our global delivery model and our experience with technological based solutions, econometrics and behavioral science. These investments, the mix of services provided and the need to hire employees and lease facilities in advance of expected business referral growth, could limit our ability in the near term to significantly expand Mortgage Services margins calculated based upon Service Revenue.

In our Mortgage Services segment, we generate the majority of our revenue by providing outsourced services that span the lifecycle of a mortgage loan primarily for Ocwen or with respect to the loan portfolio serviced by Ocwen. In addition to our relationship with Ocwen, we have longstanding relationships with some of the leading capital markets firms, commercial banks, hedge funds, insurance companies, and lending institutions.

Asset Management Services. Asset Management Services principally include property preservation, property inspection, REO asset management and REO brokerage. Asset Management Services has been the largest contributor to Service Revenue growth year to date which reflects increased sales of REO properties, increased number of properties for which we provide property preservation services and an increase in pre-foreclosure inspection services. We expect to receive additional property preservation and brokerage referrals beginning in the fourth quarter as a result of Ocwen’s recent acquisition of the Litton portfolio for which the revenue will begin to be recognized in the 2012.

Origination Management Services. Origination Management Services includes MPA and our developing fulfillment business. The increase year over year is principally due to the inclusion of MPA’s results for an entire period in 2011 as compared to a partial period in 2010 from the date of acquisition. Sequentially, Revenue increased due to the performance of MPA and the slow but incremental roll-out of new origination services. For the nine months ended September 30, 2011, MPA experienced a net increase of 26 members (net increase of 12 members in the third quarter) and as of September 30, 2011 had 202 members.

Residential Property Valuation. The increase in both periods presented as compared to the same periods in 2010 was primarily a result of Ocwen’s residential loan portfolio growth and to a lesser degree results from the Springhouse acquisition in April 2011. Sequentially, Revenue increased significantly as expected due to Ocwen’s recent acquisition of the Litton portfolio and the aforementioned acquisition of Springhouse. We expect elevated levels of valuation referrals to continue into the fourth quarter.

Closing and Insurance Services. Closing and Insurance Services principally consists of title search, title agency and insurance services. During 2011, we remain focused on increasing our referral capture rate in our operational states and rolling out insured title services nationwide, similar to what we accomplished with our title search and asset management businesses in 2010. The continued focus on completing the rollout drove the year over year increase. Sequentially, Revenue increased principally as we continue to expand our title agency and other insurance services offerings.

Default Management Services. We provide non-legal back-office support for foreclosure, bankruptcy and eviction attorneys as well as foreclosure trustee services. The increase in both periods presented as compared to the same periods in 2010 was a result of our continued rollout of a national platform as well as Ocwen’s servicing portfolio growth. Sequentially, we saw an increase in Revenue primarily due to an increase in foreclosure referrals received in the second quarter. We expect referrals to further increase late in the fourth quarter due to the addition of Litton. These referrals will translate into revenue in the first half of 2012.

Gross Margin Percentage:
Gross Profit/Service Revenue		46	%		52	%					49	%		50	%

Expenditures, which consists primarily of compensation and technology costs, increased in both periods presented as compared to the same periods in 2010 due to the growth in default oriented mortgage services. Sequentially, Expenditures increased principally as a result of employee costs to support the roll-out of our title agency operations, development of origination services and hiring of employees to support expected growth. We would expect Expenditures to continue to increase in the fourth quarter as we continue to hire to support anticipated growth in referrals.

Outside Fees and Services increased over the same periods in 2010 due to the increase in default oriented services for the periods presented. Sequentially, Outside Fees and Services increased principally due to the provision of pre-foreclosure related services (e.g., valuation, property inspection services) for which vendor costs are generally not considered reimbursable expenses. We anticipate that Outside Fees and Services will continue to increase in the fourth quarter given the recent boarding of loans associated with the Litton platform and the subsequent boarding on to REALServicing of the remaining Litton loans in November.

Several factors impact our gross margins from period to period including seasonality, the mix of services delivered, timing of investments in new services, hiring of staff and leasing of facilities in advance of new business and the timing of when loans are boarded by our customers. Sequentially, our gross margin decreased principally as a result of increased Outside Fees and Services attributable to pre-foreclosure activities for which we earn a lower margin when compared to other services offered.

Operating Percentage:

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses increased in both periods presented over the same periods in 2010 principally due to the exponential growth in the segment which required investments in facilities, technology and other general and administrative costs. Sequentially, Selling, General and Administrative Expenses increased primarily due to reduced reserves for bad debt, reversal of stock compensation expense due to the departure of certain executives and lower expenses for professional services in the second quarter. Selling, General and Administrative Expenses for the third quarter in 2011 are consistent with the first quarter. As this segment continues to grow, we should begin to leverage Selling, General and Administrative Expenses resulting in increased margins.

As discussed above, Customer Relationship Management now includes certain services that were originally recorded as part of Mortgage Services.

Financial Services revenue declined in both periods as compared to the same periods in 2010 due to a decline in revenues attributable to asset recovery management and primarily from one of the segment’s largest customers. The decline was in part (i) a result of the client shifting work to the Company’s global delivery platform which resulted in lower revenue and (ii) the general economic environment which has kept collection rates depressed. This decline was partially offset by growth in new asset recovery management accounts and growth in customer relationship management revenues. Sequentially, Revenue was down due principally to seasonality associated with asset recovery management services, partially offset by a sequential increase in customer relationship management revenues.

Our new leadership team is focused on disciplined floor management and cost containment as well as improving the analytics to determine which accounts to contact, what offer to make and what to say. In addition, we are focused on delivering more services over our global delivery platform, expanding our quality initiatives and investing in new technology.

In July 2011, we purchased the assembled workforce of a sub-contractor in India that performs asset recovery services. For periods prior to the acquisition, the costs paid to the sub-contractor were included as a component of Outside Fees and Services. Since acquisition, the costs have been recorded as employee costs, technology or occupancy as appropriate which has resulted in some movement between Cost of Revenue and Selling, General and Administrative Expense categories.

In our Financial Services segment, we generate revenue from asset recovery services and customer relationship management.

Asset Recovery Management. Our revenue associated with contingency collections declined in both periods when compared to the same periods in 2010 due to a decline in revenue from one of the segment’s largest customers. The decline was in part a result of the client shifting work to the Company’s global delivery platform which resulted in lower revenue although generally at higher margins. In general, we have seen improved performance of our collectors which we believe will translate into increased placements in the future should such performance continue.

Customer Relationship Management. Our revenue associated with customer relationship management increased in both periods as compared to the same periods in 2010 as a result of increased services to two key customers. We recently strengthened the management team for customer relationship services with the intention of growing these services.

Our gross margin increased sequentially from 26% to 27% principally as a result of the acquisition of Tracmail which resulted in changes to how costs were categorized since the date of acquisition. When compared to the same periods in 2010, Expenditures in both periods declined principally as a result of lower employee costs as we expanded the use of our global delivery footprint.

The primary focus of the Technology Services segment today is to support the growth of Mortgage Services and Ocwen. In addition, Technology Services is assisting in the cost reduction and quality initiatives on-going within the Financial Services segment. In 2011, we are expending significant resources, principally personnel costs and external consulting costs to accomplish three key objectives:

•

The re-architecture and enhancement of our REALSuite of services;

•

The deployment of business process management and business intelligence reporting systems to more effectively and efficiently manage our operations; and

•

The development and early stage incubation of technology solutions.

Effective January 1, 2011, we modified our pricing for IT Infrastructure Services within our Technology Services segment from a model based principally on headcount to a fully loaded costs plus mark-up methodology. This new model applies to the infrastructure amounts charged to Ocwen as well as internal allocations of infrastructure costs.

REALSuite. Our REALSuite revenue is primarily driven by our REALServicing^® product which is our comprehensive residential loan servicing platform. The primary driver for the growth in revenue is the increase in Ocwen’s residential loan portfolio.

IT Infrastructure Services. Our IT infrastructure services revenues in both periods were generally declining when compared to the same periods in 2010 due to our change in pricing for infrastructure services; however this trend reversed in the third quarter 2011 as a result of the growth in Ocwen’s personnel as its servicing business has grown. Mark-ups for infrastructure services are based upon economic studies performed that are generally consistent with our transfer pricing methodology.

Our Consumer Analytics group seeks to expand our use of behavioral sciences by building proprietary algorithms and psychologically-optimized communications through a customized technology platform. In addition, we have seen an increase in licensing fees given the increase in personnel both at Ocwen and Altisource.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses decreased sequentially principally as a result of reduction in bad debt reserves due to improved collections. This as well as the increase in Revenues led to a significant increase in sequential margins.

Corporate

Our Corporate Segment includes costs related to corporate support functions such as finance, legal, human resources, compliance and quality assurance.

Corporate costs rose throughout 2010 as we invested in staff to support our growing operations.

During 2011, we hired additional resources principally focused on legal, compliance and quality assurance. In addition, lease costs increased related to the build out of new facilities to support the growth we expect from Ocwen’s acquisition of the Litton portfolio. Typically, we include new leases costs within Corporate until the facility is put into use at which time the prospective lease cost is included within the appropriate segment. Lastly, we continue to invest in an enterprise resource planning system that we expect will increase the quality of our support functions and over time reduce costs. When compared to the second quarter, corporate costs remained flat.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Liquidity

We seek to deploy excess cash generated in a disciplined manner. Principally, we will continue to invest in compelling services that we believe will generate high margins. In addition, we may seek to acquire a limited number of complementary companies that fit our strategic objectives. Finally, given the tax inefficiency of dividends, the low returns earned on cash held and our current belief to pursue a limited number of acquisitions, we believe one of the best ways to return value to shareholders is a stock repurchase program.

In May 2010, our shareholders authorized us to purchase up to 3.8 million shares of our common stock in the open market. Through September 30, 2011, we purchased 1.7 million shares of our common stock on the open market at an average price of $31.02, leaving 2.1 million shares still available for purchase under the program.

Cash Flow from Operating Activities

Cash flow from operating activities consists of two components: (i) net income adjusted for depreciation, amortization and certain other non-cash items and (ii) working capital. In 2011, we generated $68.8 million in positive cash flow from operations or approximately $0.30 per every dollar of Service Revenue. This primarily reflects our profitability adjusted for non-cash items in the period primarily as a result of our year-over-year growth in mortgage related services.

Cash Flow from Investing Activities

During the nine months ended September 30, 2011, we invested $15.0 million in Correspondent One to facilitate the establishment of this business. In 2011, we acquired Springhouse for net consideration of $1.8 million and Tracmail for net consideration of $0.7 million. We estimate our capital expenditures for the full year 2011 to be at the lower end of our previously provided range of $16 million to $18 million. Our cash flow from investing activities in 2010 includes the acquisition of MPA for which the purchase consideration included $29.0 million in cash.

Cash Flow from Financing Activities

Cash flow from financing activities in 2011 primarily includes activity associated with stock option exercises, share repurchases and payments to non-controlling interests as a result of the acquisition of MPA. We utilized significantly more cash in 2011 from financing activities as a result of our stock repurchase program. In the third quarter, we returned $22.9 million to shareholders through our stock repurchase program.

Liquidity Requirements after September 30, 2011

During the fourth quarter, we expect to distribute $1.8 million to the Lenders One members representing non-controlling interests. Between October 1 and 21, 2011, we purchased 0.1 million shares at a total cost of $4.1 million.

Management is not aware of any other trends or events, commitments or uncertainties which have not otherwise been disclosed that will or are likely to impact liquidity in a material way.

Capital Resources

Given our ability to generate cash flow which is sufficient to fund current operations as well as expansion activities, we require very limited capital. Were we to need additional capital, we believe we have adequate access to both debt and equity capital markets.

Contractual Obligation, Commitments and Contingencies

For the nine months ended September 30, 2011, there were no significant changes to our contractual obligations from those identified in our Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010, other than those which occur in the normal course of business (primarily the addition of operating leases due to our growth). See also Note 16 to the condensed consolidated financial statements.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

We prepare our condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. In applying many of these accounting principles, we need to make assumptions, estimates and/or judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses in our condensed consolidated financial statements. We base our estimates and judgments on historical experience and other assumptions that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances. These assumptions, estimates and/or judgments, however, are often subjective. Actual results may be affected negatively based on changing circumstances. If actual amounts are ultimately different from our estimates, the revisions are included in our results of operations for the period in which the actual amounts become known.

Our critical accounting policies are described in the MD&A section in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010. Such policies have not changed during the quarter ended September 30, 2011.

OTHER MATTERS

Related Party — Ocwen

For the nine months ended September 30, 2011, approximately $150.5 million of the Mortgage Services ($58.2 million for the third quarter), $0.2 million ($0.1 million for the third quarter) of the Financial Services and $15.6 million ($5.5 million for the third quarter) of the Technology Services segment revenue were from services provided to Ocwen or sales derived from Ocwen’s loan servicing portfolio. Services provided to Ocwen included residential property valuation, real estate asset management and sales, trustee management services, property inspection and preservation, closing and title services, charge-off second mortgage collections, core technology back office support and multiple business technologies including our REALSuite of products. We provided all services at rates we believe to be comparable to market rates.

In connection with the Separation, Altisource and Ocwen entered into a Transition Services agreement under which services in such areas as human resources, vendor management, corporate services, six sigma, quality assurance, quantitative analytics, treasury, accounting, risk management, legal, strategic planning, compliance and other areas are provided to the counterparty for up to two years from the date of Separation. For the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, Altisource billed Ocwen $1.7 million and $1.2 million respectively ($0.8 million and $0.5 million for the third quarter of 2011 and 2010, respectively), and Ocwen billed Altisource $1.4 million and $0.8 million respectively ($0.5 million and $0.2 million for the third quarter of 2011 and 2010, respectively) for services provided under this agreement. These amounts are reflected as a component of Selling, General and Administrative Expenses in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.


Item 3.		Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.

Our financial market risk consists primarily of foreign currency exchange risk. We are exposed to foreign currency exchange rate risk in connection with our investment in non-U.S. dollar functional currency operations, which are very limited, to the extent that our foreign exchange positions remain un-hedged.


Item 4.		Controls and Procedures.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) or Rule 15a-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report. Based on such evaluation, such officers have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report were effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC rules and forms, and to ensure that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during the quarter ending September 30, 2011, 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.

We are subject to routine litigation and administrative proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business. In the opinion of management, after consultation with legal counsel and considering insurance coverage where applicable, the outcome of current legal proceedings both individually and in the aggregate will not have a material impact on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.


Item 1A.		Risk Factors.

As of the date of this filing, there have been no material changes in our risk factors from those disclosed in Part I, Item 1A, of our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010.
