Altisource Announces Third Quarter 2021 Financial Results

LUXEMBOURG, Nov. 04, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Altisource Portfolio Solutions S.A. (“Altisource” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: ASPS), a leading provider and marketplace for the real estate and mortgage industries, today reported financial results for the third quarter 2021.

“We believe Altisource is well positioned for 2022 and beyond. Our Default business should generate significant revenue and earnings growth as we return to a more normal post-pandemic operating environment. We are executing on our strategic plan in our Origination business and believe this will also be a significant driver for growth. As a result, we anticipate that we will generate positive cash flow in the second half of 2022 on a significantly reduced cost structure. Finally, the anticipated sale of our equity interest in Pointillist significantly strengthens our balance sheet by adding an estimated $100 million of cash at closing,” said Chairman and Chief Executive Officer William B. Shepro.

Third Quarter 2021 Highlights⁽¹⁾

Corporate and Financial:

On October 6, 2021, the shareholders of Pointillist, Inc. (“Pointillist”), a majority owned subsidiary of Altisource, entered into a definitive Stock Purchase Agreement to sell Pointillist to Genesys Cloud Services, Inc. (“Genesys”) for $150 million (the “Purchase Price”)
- The Purchase Price consists of an up-front payment of $145 million, subject to certain adjustments at closing, including a working capital adjustment, and an additional $5 million to be held in an escrow account to satisfy certain Genesys indemnification claims that may arise on or prior to the first anniversary of the sale closing, with the balance to be paid thereafter
- On a fully diluted basis, Altisource owns approximately 69% of the equity at Pointillist
- Altisource estimates that it will receive approximately $100 million in cash at closing, subject to a working capital adjustment, and an additional $3.7 million following the on-year anniversary of closing, assuming no indemnification claims
- The Company estimates the sale will generate a pre-tax and after-tax gain of $107 million before any potential reduction of goodwill
- The transaction is anticipated to close before the end of the 2021 calendar year, subject to the satisfaction or waiver of customary closing conditions including regulatory approval

NON-GAAP MEASURES
(in thousands, except per share data)
(unaudited)

Adjusted operating (loss) income, pretax loss attributable to Altisource, adjusted pretax loss attributable to Altisource, adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”), adjusted net loss attributable to Altisource, adjusted diluted loss per share, cash flows used in operating activities less additions to premises and equipment and net debt less investment in equity securities, which are presented elsewhere in this earnings release, are non-GAAP measures used by management, existing shareholders, potential shareholders and other users of our financial information to measure Altisource’s performance and do not purport to be alternatives to loss from operations, loss before income taxes and non-controlling interests, net loss attributable to Altisource, diluted loss per share, cash flows used in operating activities and long-term debt, including current portion, as measures of Altisource’s performance. We believe these measures are useful to management, existing shareholders, potential shareholders and other users of our financial information in evaluating operating profitability and cash flow generation more on the basis of continuing cost and cash flows as they exclude amortization expense related to acquisitions that occurred in prior periods and non-cash share-based compensation, as well as the effect of more significant non-operational items from earnings, cash flows from operating activities and long-term debt net of cash on-hand and investment in equity securities. We believe these measures are also useful in evaluating the effectiveness of our operations and underlying business trends in a manner that is consistent with management’s evaluation of business performance. Furthermore, we believe the exclusion of more significant non-operational items enables comparability to prior period performance and trend analysis.

It is management’s intent to provide non-GAAP financial information to enhance the understanding of Altisource’s GAAP financial information, and it should be considered by the reader in addition to, but not instead of, the financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP. Each non-GAAP financial measure is presented along with the corresponding GAAP measure so as not to imply that more emphasis should be placed on the non-GAAP measure. The non-GAAP financial information presented may be determined or calculated differently by other companies. The non-GAAP financial information should not be unduly relied upon.

Adjusted operating (loss) income is calculated by removing intangible asset amortization expense, share-based compensation expense, Pointillist losses, cost of cost savings initiatives and other, restructuring charges and sales tax net accrual (reimbursement) from loss from operations. Pretax loss attributable to Altisource is calculated by removing non-controlling interests from loss before income taxes and non-controlling interests. Adjusted pretax loss attributable to Altisource is calculated by removing non-controlling interests, intangible asset amortization expense, share-based compensation expense, Pointillist losses, cost of cost savings initiatives and other, restructuring charges, unrealized (gain) loss on investment in equity securities and sales tax net accrual (reimbursement) from loss before income taxes and non-controlling interests. Adjusted EBITDA is calculated by removing the income tax provision, interest expense (net of interest income), depreciation and amortization, share-based compensation expense, Pointillist losses, cost of cost savings initiatives and other, restructuring charges, unrealized (gain) loss on investment in equity securities and sales tax net accrual (reimbursement) from net loss attributable to Altisource. Adjusted net loss attributable to Altisource is calculated by removing intangible asset amortization expense (net of tax), share-based compensation expense (net of tax), Pointillist losses (net of tax), cost of cost savings initiatives and other (net of tax), restructuring charges (net of tax), unrealized (gain) loss on investment in equity securities (net of tax), sales tax net accrual (reimbursement) (net of tax) and certain income tax items related to the decrease in the India income tax rate from adjustments to deferred tax assets and adjustments to foreign income tax reserves from net loss attributable to Altisource. Adjusted diluted loss per share is calculated by dividing net loss attributable to Altisource after removing intangible asset amortization expense (net of tax), share-based compensation expense (net of tax), Pointillist losses (net of tax), cost of cost savings initiatives and other (net of tax), restructuring charges (net of tax), unrealized (gain) loss on investment in equity securities (net of tax), sales tax net accrual (reimbursement) (net of tax) and certain income tax related items by the weighted average number of diluted shares. Cash flows used in operating activities less additions to premises and equipment is calculated by removing additions to premises and equipment from cash flows used in operating activities. Net debt less investment in equity securities is calculated as long-term debt, including current portion, minus cash and cash equivalents and investment in equity securities.

Reconciliations of the non-GAAP measures to the corresponding GAAP measures are as follows:
