Segment Information

Data and Analytics

Our effective tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 was 15.1% and 19.2%, respectively.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This earnings release presents non-GAAP financial information, including Adjusted Revenues, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Adjusted Net Earnings and Adjusted Net Earnings Per Share. These are important financial performance measures for us, but are not financial measures as defined by generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). The presentation of this financial information is not intended to be considered in isolation of or as a substitute for, or superior to, the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP. We use these non-GAAP financial performance measures for financial and operational decision making and as a means to evaluate period-to-period comparisons. We believe these measures provide useful information about operating results, enhance the overall understanding of past financial performance and future prospects and allow for greater transparency with respect to key metrics used by management in its financial and operational decision making, including determining a portion of executive compensation. We also present these non-GAAP financial performance measures because we believe investors, analysts and rating agencies consider them useful in measuring our ability to meet our debt service obligations. By disclosing these non-GAAP financial performance measures, we believe we offer investors a greater understanding of, and an enhanced level of transparency into, the means by which our management operates the company. These non-GAAP financial measures are not measures presented in accordance with GAAP, and our use of these terms may vary from that of others in our industry. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered as an alternative to revenues, operating income, net earnings, cash provided by operating activities or any other measures derived in accordance with GAAP as measures of operating performance or liquidity. Reconciliations of these measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are presented in the attached schedules.
Adjusted Revenues and Adjusted EBITDA for the Software Solutions and Data and Analytics segments are presented in conformity with Accounting Standards Codification Topic 280, Segment Reporting. These measures are reported to the chief operating decision maker for purposes of making decisions about allocating resources to the segments and assessing their performance. For these reasons, these measures are excluded from the definition of non-GAAP financial measures under the Securities and Exchange Commission's ("SEC'") Regulation G and Item 10(e) of Regulation S-K.
Adjusted Revenues - We define Adjusted Revenues as Revenues adjusted to include the revenues that were not recorded by Black Knight during the periods presented due to the deferred revenue purchase accounting adjustment recorded in accordance with GAAP. These adjustments are reflected in Corporate and Other. This adjustment for the full year 2018 is expected to be approximately $2.5 million.
Adjusted EBITDA - We define Adjusted EBITDA as Net earnings, with adjustments to reflect the addition or elimination of certain statement of earnings items including, but not limited to:
-- Depreciation and amortization;
-- Interest expense;
-- Income tax expense;
-- Other expense, net;
-- deferred revenue purchase accounting adjustment;
-- equity-based compensation, including related payroll taxes;
-- costs associated with debt and/or equity offerings, including the
spin-off of Black Knight from Fidelity National Financial, Inc. ("FNF")
(the "Distribution");
-- spin-off related transition costs; and
-- acquisition-related costs, including ongoing costs pursuant to a
purchase agreement.
These adjustments are reflected in Corporate and Other.
Adjusted EBITDA Margin - Adjusted EBITDA Margin is calculated by dividing Adjusted EBITDA by Adjusted Revenues.
Adjusted Net Earnings - We define Adjusted Net Earnings as Net earnings with adjustments to reflect the addition or elimination of certain statement of earnings items including, but not limited to:
-- the net incremental depreciation and amortization adjustments associated
with the application of purchase accounting;
-- deferred revenue purchase accounting adjustment;
-- equity-based compensation, including related payroll taxes;
-- costs associated with debt and/or equity offerings, including the
Distribution;
-- spin-off related transition costs;
-- acquisition-related costs, including ongoing costs pursuant to a
purchase agreement;
-- significant legal and regulatory matters; and
-- adjustment for income tax expense assuming the conversion of all the
shares of Class B common stock into shares of Class A common stock prior
to the Distribution, the tax effect of the non-GAAP adjustments and the
revaluation of our net deferred tax liability related to purchase
accounting, equity-based compensation and debt modifications.
Adjusted Net Earnings Per Share - For the periods prior to the Distribution, we calculate per share amounts assuming the exchange of all shares of Class B common stock into shares of Class A common stock at the beginning of the respective period. We also include the dilutive effect of any unvested restricted shares of common stock.
ASC 606
On January 1, 2018, we adopted ASC Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers ("ASC 606"), using the modified retrospective method. Under this method, we recognized the cumulative effect of applying the new revenue recognition standard to existing revenue contracts that were active as of the adoption date as an adjustment to the opening balance of Retained earnings. The reported results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 reflect the application of ASC 606, while the comparative information has not been restated and continues to be reported under the related accounting standards in effect for those periods.

______________
(1) For the periods presented, potentially dilutive securities include unvested restricted stock awards and the shares of Class B common stock prior to the Distribution. The shares of
Class B common stock did not share in the earnings or losses of Black Knight and were, therefore, not participating securities. Accordingly, basic and diluted net earnings per share
of Class B common stock have not been presented. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, the numerator in the diluted net earnings per share calculation was adjusted
to reflect our income tax expense at an expected effective tax rate assuming the conversion of the shares of Class B common stock into shares of Class A common stock on a one-
for-one basis. The effective tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 was 54.6% and 43.4%, respectively. The denominator includes approximately 84.7 million
and 84.8 million shares of Class B common stock outstanding for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, respectively. The denominator also includes the dilutive effect of
approximately 0.6 million and 0.4 million shares of unvested restricted shares of common stock for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively, and approximately
0.6 million and 0.5 million shares for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, respectively.
