ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION	NOTE 1 — ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION Description of Business Altisource Portfolio Solutions S.A., together with its subsidiaries (which may be referred to as “Altisource,” the “Company,” “we,” “us” or “our”), is a global provider of outsourcing and software services focused on high-value, technology-enabled solutions principally related to real estate and mortgage portfolio management, asset recovery and customer relationship management. We are incorporated under the laws of Luxembourg and are publicly traded on the NASDAQ Global Select market under the symbol “ASPS.” We conduct our operations through three reporting segments: Mortgage Services, Financial Services and Technology Services. In addition, we report our corporate related expenditures and eliminations as a separate segment (see Note 18 for a description of our business segments). Basis of Presentation The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared 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 Securities and Exchange Commission (“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, the interim data includes all normal recurring adjustments considered necessary to fairly state the results for the interim periods presented. The preparation of interim 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 interim 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. All significant intercompany and inter-segment transactions and accounts have been eliminated in consolidation. The Mortgage Partnership of America, L.L.C. (“MPA”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Altisource®, is the manager of a national alliance of community mortgage bankers, correspondent lenders and suppliers of mortgage products and services that is referred to as the 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 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 interim condensed consolidated financial statements on a consolidated basis with the interests of the members reflected as non-controlling interests. As of June 30, 2013, Lenders One had total assets of $3.1 million and liabilities of $1.4 million. As of December 31, 2012, Lenders One had total assets of $2.3 million and liabilities of $1.0 million. These interim 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, 2012, filed with the SEC on February 13, 2013, which contains a summary of our significant accounting policies. Certain footnote detail in the Form 10-K is omitted from the information included herein. Fair Value of Financial Instruments Our financial instruments primarily include cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash and long-term debt. The carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash are carried at amounts that approximate their fair value due to the short-term nature of these instruments. The fair value was determined by level 1 of the three level hierarchy established by the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement, using quoted prices in active markets for identical assets. The carrying amount of the long-term debt approximates fair value due to the variable interest rate. The fair value was determined by level 2 of the three level hierarchy in ASC Topic 820 using inputs other than quoted prices that are observable, either directly or indirectly.

NOTE 2 — TRANSACTIONS WITH RELATED PARTIES

Ocwen®

Ocwen Financial Corporation, together with its subsidiaries (“Ocwen”), is our largest customer. Ocwen is contractually obligated to purchase certain mortgage services and technology services from us through August 2025 under the terms of a master services agreement and amendments to the master services agreement (collectively, the “Service Agreements”). In connection with our acquisition from Ocwen of the fee-based businesses of Homeward Residential, Inc. (“Homeward”) that closed on March 29, 2013 and the acquisition from Ocwen related to the fee-based businesses of Residential Capital, LLC (“ResCap”) that closed on April 12, 2013 (see Note 3), our Service Agreements with Ocwen were amended to extend the term from 2020 to 2025. Further, as part of the amendments, we are the exclusive provider of services to Ocwen with respect to the Homeward and ResCap servicing portfolios, and Ocwen agreed not to establish similar fee-based businesses that would directly or indirectly compete with Altisource’s services with respect to the Homeward and ResCap businesses. We settle amounts with Ocwen on a daily, weekly or monthly basis depending upon the nature of the service and when the service is provided.

Related party revenue consists of revenue earned directly from Ocwen and revenue earned from the loans serviced by Ocwen when Ocwen designates us as the service provider. We earn additional revenue on the portfolios serviced by Ocwen that are not considered related party revenue when a party other than Ocwen selects the service provider. Related party revenue as a percentage of segment and consolidated revenue was as follows:

	Three months ended June 30,				Six months ended June 30,
	2013		2012		2013		2012

Mortgage Services	70	%	70	%	69	%	70	%
Technology Services	54	%	40	%	52	%	40	%
Financial Services	29	%	<1	%	17	%	<1	%
Consolidated revenue	65	%	61	%	63	%	60	%

We record revenue we earn from Ocwen under 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 fees Ocwen pays to other service providers, fees commensurate with market surveys prepared by unaffiliated firms and fees charged by our competitors.

Support Services

We have support services agreements with Ocwen. These services include such areas as human resources, vendor management, corporate services, six sigma, quality assurance, quantitative analytics, treasury, accounting, risk management, legal, strategic planning and compliance. Payment for the services provided is on the fully-allocated cost of providing the service based on an estimate of the time and expense of providing the service. For the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, we billed Ocwen $1.2 million and $1.4 million, respectively ($0.6 million for the second quarter of 2013 and 2012), and Ocwen billed us $1.4 million and $1.2 million, respectively ($0.7 million and $0.6 million for the second quarter of 2013 and 2012, respectively) for services provided under these agreements. These amounts are reflected as a component of selling, general and administrative expenses in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Unsecured Term Loan

On December 27, 2012, we entered into a senior unsecured term loan agreement with Ocwen under which we loaned $75.0 million to Ocwen. Payments of interest were due quarterly at a rate per annum equal to the Eurodollar Rate (as defined in the agreement) plus 6.75%, provided that the Eurodollar Rate shall at no time be less than 1.50%. On February 15, 2013, Ocwen repaid the outstanding principal amount of $75.0 million, plus all accrued and unpaid interest and the term loan was terminated. Interest income related to this loan was $0.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013 (no comparative amounts for 2012).

Transactions Related to Fee-Based Businesses

On January 31, 2013, we entered into non-binding letters of intent with Ocwen to acquire certain fee-based businesses associated with Ocwen’s acquisitions of the Homeward and the ResCap servicing portfolios. Ocwen acquired the Homeward servicing portfolio on December 27, 2012 and the ResCap servicing portfolio on February 15, 2013. Altisource acquired the Homeward fee-based businesses from Ocwen on March 29, 2013 (see Note 3). Altisource entered into an agreement with Ocwen on April 12, 2013 to establish additional terms related to our services in connection with the ResCap fee-based businesses (see Note 3).

Correspondent One® and HLSS™

In July 2011, we acquired an equity interest in Correspondent One S.A. (“Correspondent One”) (see Note 8). Correspondent One purchases closed conforming and government guaranteed residential mortgages from approved mortgage bankers. On March 31, 2013, we sold our 49% interest in Correspondent One to Ocwen for $12.6 million. Under a support services agreement, we provided Correspondent One certain finance, human resources, legal support, facilities, technology, vendor management and risk management services. For the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, we billed Correspondent One less than $0.1 million for each period. We also provided certain origination related services to Correspondent One. We earned revenue of $0.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013 for these services (no comparative amount in 2012).

Home Loan Servicing Solutions, Ltd. (“HLSS”) is a publicly traded company whose primary objective is the acquisition of mortgage servicing rights and advances. In connection with the February 2012 HLSS initial public offering and subsequent thereto, HLSS acquired mortgage servicing related assets from Ocwen. Our Chairman is also the Chairman of HLSS. Under a support services agreement, we provide HLSS certain finance, human resources and legal support services. For the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, we billed HLSS $0.3 million and $0.2 million, respectively ($0.1 million for the second quarter of 2013 and 2012).

These amounts are reflected as a component of selling, general and administrative expenses in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

We have agreements to provide Residential with renovation management, lease management and property management services. In addition, we have agreements with Residential and AAMC to provide support services such as finance, human resources, legal support, facilities, technology, vendor management and risk management. Further, we have separate agreements for certain services related to income tax matters, trademark licenses and technology products and services. For the six months ended June 30, 2013, we billed Residential $0.2 million, and we billed AAMC $0.2 million ($0.2 million for Residential and less than $0.1 million for AAMC for the second quarter of 2013 and no comparative amounts in 2012), under these agreements.

ACQUISITIONS

ACQUISITIONS

NOTE 3 — ACQUISITIONS

Homeward Fee-Based Businesses

On March 29, 2013, we acquired certain fee-based businesses associated with Ocwen’s acquisition of Homeward. As part of the acquisition, Ocwen agreed not to develop similar fee-based businesses that would directly or indirectly compete with services provided by Altisource relative to the Homeward servicing portfolio. Additionally, the terms of the Service Agreements were amended to extend the term from 2020 to 2025 (see Note 2). We paid $87.0 million, subject to a working capital and net income adjustment within 90 days, subsequently extended for an additional 60 days, for the Homeward fee-based businesses. From the acquisition date through June 30, 2013, we have recorded revenue of $33.9 million and pre-tax income of $8.9 million related to these businesses.

Management has adjusted the preliminary purchase price allocation and assigned associated asset lives based upon information that has become available since the acquisition date. The purchase price allocation and assessment of asset lives will continue to be revised as additional information about the fair value of assets and liabilities becomes available. Such assessment must be completed within 12 months from the acquisition date.

The preliminary adjusted allocation of the purchase price is estimated as follows:

(in thousands)

Due from Ocwen	$	9,558
Premises and equipment	2,749
Customer relationship	77,648
	89,955
Accounts payable and accrued expenses	(3,005		)
Purchase price	$	86,950

		Estimated life (in years)

Premises and equipment		2 - 5
Customer relationship		7

ResCap Fee-Based Businesses

On April 12, 2013, we entered into an agreement with Ocwen to establish additional terms related to the existing servicing arrangements between Altisource and Ocwen in connection with certain mortgage servicing platform assets of ResCap (the “ResCap Business”). The Service Agreements provide that (i) Altisource will be the exclusive provider, except as prohibited by applicable law, to Ocwen of certain services related to the ResCap Business, (ii) Ocwen will not establish similar fee-based businesses that would directly or indirectly compete with Altisource’s services as they relate to the ResCap Business and (iii) Ocwen will market and promote the utilization of Altisource’s services to their various third party relationships. Additionally, the parties agreed to use commercially reasonable best efforts to ensure that the loans associated with the ResCap Business are boarded onto Altisource’s mortgage servicing platform. We paid $128.8 million ($80.0 million on April 12, 2013 and $48.8 million on May 10, 2013) for the ResCap fee-based businesses. From the acquisition date through June 30, 2013, we have recorded revenue of $7.8 million and pre-tax income of $1.8 million related to these businesses.

We acquired no tangible assets and assumed no liabilities in connection with the acquisition. However, certain employees as well as practices and processes developed to support the ResCap servicing portfolio were components of the transaction. We accounted for this transaction as a business combination in accordance with ASC Topic 805, Business Combinations.

Management has prepared a preliminary purchase price allocation and assigned associated asset lives based upon available information at the time of the agreement and through the date of filing. This preliminary allocation and assessment of asset lives will be revised as additional information about the fair value of assets and liabilities becomes available. Such assessment must be completed within 12 months from the acquisition date. The agreement consideration of $128.8 million was fully allocated to the customer relationship intangible asset with an estimated average useful life of 7 years.

The following tables present the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated results of operations as if the Homeward and ResCap Business transactions had occurred at the beginning of the periods presented.

	Six months ended June 30, 2013
(in thousands, except per share amounts)	As reported		Pro forma
Revenue	$	334,937	$	368,428
Net income attributable to Altisource	58,449		64,980
Earnings per share — diluted	2.34		2.61

	Six months ended June 30, 2012
(in thousands, except per share amounts)	As reported		Pro forma
Revenue	$	283,271	$	356,196
Net income attributable to Altisource	53,310		67,963
Earnings per share — diluted	2.15		2.73

	Three months ended June 30, 2012
(in thousands, except per share amounts)	As reported		Pro forma
Revenue	$	144,205	$	180,668
Net income attributable to Altisource	28,081		35,437
Earnings per share — diluted	1.13		1.43

The unaudited pro forma information presents the combined operating results of Altisource and the Homeward and ResCap Business transactions. The Homeward and ResCap Business operating results were derived from their historical financial statements for the most comparable periods available. The results prior to the acquisition dates have been adjusted to include the pro forma impact of the adjustment of amortization of the acquired intangible assets based on the preliminary purchase price allocations, the adjustment of interest expense reflecting the portion of our $200 million senior secured term loan, increased to $400 million on May 7, 2013, used in the Homeward and ResCap Business transactions (i.e., the pro forma impact of borrowing $215.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012) and to reflect the impact of income taxes on the pro forma adjustments utilizing Altisource’s effective income tax rate in each period presented.

The unaudited pro forma results are presented for illustrative purposes only and do not reflect additional revenue opportunities, the realization of any potential cost savings and any related integration costs. Certain revenue opportunities and cost savings may result from the transactions and the conversion to the Altisource model; however, there can be no assurance that these revenue opportunities and cost savings will be achieved. These pro forma results do not purport to be indicative of the results that would have actually been obtained if the transactions occurred as of the beginning of each of the periods presented, nor does the pro forma data intend to be a projection of results that may be obtained in the future.

- Definition

The entire disclosure for a business combination (or series of individually immaterial business combinations) completed during the period, including background, timing, and recognized assets and liabilities. The disclosure may include leverage buyout transactions (as applicable).

Long-term debt, less current portion	$	393,679		$	196,027

On November 27, 2012, we entered into a senior secured term loan agreement with Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent, and certain lenders, pursuant to which we borrowed $200 million. The senior secured term loan was issued with a 1.0% original issue discount ($2.0 million), resulting in net proceeds of $198.0 million (the “Initial Proceeds”), with the Company and certain wholly-owned subsidiaries acting as guarantors (collectively, the “Guarantors”).

On May 7, 2013, we amended the senior secured term loan agreement to increase the principal amount of the senior secured term loan by $200 million (the “Incremental Term Loan”), which was issued with a $1.0 million original issue premium, resulting in gross proceeds to the Company of $201.0 million.

The Incremental Term Loan must be repaid in equal consecutive quarterly principal installments of 0.25% of the initial principal amount, with the balance due at maturity, commencing on June 28, 2013. The aggregate amount of each quarterly scheduled principal installment of the term loans, including the Incremental Term Loan, is equal to approximately $1.0 million. All amounts outstanding under the senior secured term loan agreement will become due on the earlier of (i) November 27, 2019, being the seventh anniversary of the closing date of the senior secured term loan agreement or (ii) the date on which the loans are declared to be due and owed by the administrative agent at the request (or with the consent) of the lenders upon the occurrence of any event of default under the senior secured term loan agreement.

The Incremental Term Loan was used to fund the remainder of the Company’s previously announced transaction with Ocwen related to the ResCap servicing portfolio (see Note 3), with the remainder to be used for stock repurchases and for general corporate purposes, including potential acquisitions. Additionally, the Incremental Term Loan was used to pay certain fees, commissions and expenses in connection with the Incremental Term Loan. The Company paid legal fees and other costs associated with the Incremental Term Loan of $2.4 million, which were recorded as debt issuance costs in other assets in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Additionally, the Incremental Term Loan modified the senior secured term loan agreement to, among other changes, provide for an additional $200 million incremental term loan facility accordion and increase the maximum amount of Restricted Payments (as defined in the senior secured term loan) that may be made by us, including increasing the amount of Company share repurchases permitted.

All of the term loans outstanding bear interest at rates based upon, at our option, the Adjusted Eurodollar Rate or the Base Rate (each as defined in the senior secured term loan agreement). Eurodollar Rate loans bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the sum of (i) the greater of (x) the Adjusted Eurodollar Rate for the applicable interest period and (y) 1.25% plus (ii) a 4.50% margin. Base Rate loans bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the sum of (i) the greater of (x) the Base Rate and (y) 2.25% plus (ii) a 3.50% margin. The interest rate at June 30, 2013 was 5.75%.

Payments under the senior secured term loan agreement are guaranteed by the Guarantors and are secured by a pledge of all equity interests of certain subsidiaries, as well as a lien on substantially all of the assets of Altisource Solutions S.à r.l., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Altisource, and the Guarantors, subject to certain exceptions.

At June 30, 2013, debt issuance costs were $6.4 million, net of $0.5 million of accumulated amortization. At December 31, 2012, debt issuance costs were $4.3 million, net of $0.1 million of accumulated amortization. Debt issuance costs are included in other assets in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets.

EQUITY AND SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION

EQUITY AND SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION

NOTE 12 — EQUITY AND SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION

Stock Repurchase Plan

In May 2012, our shareholders approved a stock repurchase program, which replaced the previous stock repurchase program. Under the plan, we are authorized to purchase up to 3.5 million shares of our common stock in the open market in addition to amounts previously purchased under the prior plan. From authorization of the prior plan in May 2010 through June 30, 2013, we have purchased approximately 3.1 million shares of our common stock in the open market at an average price of $47.04 per share. We purchased 0.6 million shares of common stock (at an average price of $89.01 per share) and 0.3 million shares of common stock (at an average price of $63.25 per share) during the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively (0.3 million shares at an average price of $94.49 per share for the second quarter of 2013 and no comparative amounts in the second quarter of 2012). 2.9 million shares of common stock remain available for repurchase under the plan. Luxembourg law limits share repurchases to approximately the balance of Altisource Portfolio Solutions S.A. (unconsolidated parent company) retained earnings less shares repurchased. As of June 30, 2013, approximately $40 million was available to repurchase our common stock under Luxembourg law. Our $200 million senior secured term loan, increased to $400 million on May 7, 2013, also limits our ability to repurchase our common stock, which will limit the amount we can spend on share repurchases in any year and may prevent repurchases in certain circumstances. As of June 30, 2013, approximately $80 million was available to repurchase our common stock under our senior secured term loan.

Share-Based Compensation

We issue share-based awards in the form of stock options and certain other equity-based awards for certain employees and officers. We recorded share-based compensation expense of $1.5 million and $0.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively ($0.1 million and $1.1 million for the second quarter of 2013 and 2012, respectively). The amount for the six months ended June 30, 2012 includes the reversal of $0.8 million of share-based compensation expense related to the departure of an executive officer in March 2012.

Outstanding share-based compensation currently consists primarily of stock option grants that are a combination of service-based and market-based options.

Service-based Options. These options are granted at fair 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 0.9 million service-based awards were outstanding at June 30, 2013.

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 is at least double the exercise price, as long as the stock price realizes a compounded annual gain of at least 20% over 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 is at least triple the exercise price, as long as the stock price realizes a compounded annual gain of at least 25% over 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 2.0 million market-based awards were outstanding at June 30, 2013.

The Company granted less than 0.1 million stock options (at a weighted average exercise price of $90.75 per share) and 0.2 million stock options (at a weighted average exercise price of $63.14 per share) during the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

The fair value of the service-based options was determined using the Black-Scholes option pricing model, and 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:

	Six months ended June 30, 2013		Six months ended June 30, 2012

Share-based compensation expense is recorded net of estimated forfeiture rates ranging from 1% to 10%.

As of June 30, 2013, estimated unrecognized compensation costs related to share-based payments amounted to $2.7 million, which we expect to recognize over a weighted-average remaining requisite service period of approximately 2.6 years.

NOTE 16 — EARNINGS PER SHARE

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

Basic and diluted EPS are calculated as follows:

	Three months ended				Six months ended
	June 30,				June 30,
(in thousands, except per share data)	2013		2012		2013		2012

For the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, 0.1 million and less than 0.1 million options, respectively (less than 0.1 million for the second quarter of 2013 and 2012), that were anti-dilutive have been excluded from the computation of diluted EPS. These options were anti-dilutive because their exercise price was greater than the average market price of our common stock. Also excluded from the computation of diluted EPS for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 are 0.1 million and 0.3 million options, respectively (0.1 million and 0.3 million for the second quarter of 2013 and 2012, respectively), granted for shares that are issuable upon the achievement of certain market and performance criteria related to our common stock price and an annualized rate of return to investors that have not been met.

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 our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. Escrow Balances We hold customers’ assets in escrow at various financial institutions pending completion of certain real estate activities. These amounts are held in escrow for limited periods of time, generally consisting of a few days and are not included in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Amounts held in escrow were $48.7 million and $47.2 million as of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively.

SEGMENT REPORTING

NOTE 18 — 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 used by our Chief Executive Officer to evaluate operating performance and to assess the allocation of our resources.

We classify our businesses into three reportable segments. The Mortgage Services segment provides services that span the mortgage and real estate lifecycle and are typically outsourced by loan servicers, loan originators and investors in single family homes. The Financial Services segment provides collection and customer relationship management services primarily to debt originators and servicers (e.g., credit card, auto lending, retail credit and mortgage) and the utility and insurance industries. The Technology Services segment principally consists of our REALSuite software applications as well as our information technology infrastructure services. The REALSuite platform provides a fully integrated set of software applications and technologies that manage the end-to-end lifecycle for residential and commercial mortgage loan servicing including the automated management and payment of a distributed network of vendors. In addition, our Corporate Items and Eliminations segment includes eliminations of transactions between the reporting segments and costs related to corporate support functions including executive, finance, legal, human resources, vendor management, risk and six sigma.

Financial information for our segments is as follows:
