JACKSONVILLE, Fla., Aug. 6, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Black Knight, Inc. (NYSE: BKI), a leading provider of software, data and analytics solutions to the mortgage and consumer loan, real estate and capital markets verticals, today announced unaudited financial results for the second quarter and six months ended June 30, 2019.

Net earnings for the second quarter of 2019 decreased 20% to $31.9 million compared to $40.0 million in the prior year quarter. Diluted EPS decreased 22% to $0.21 compared to $0.27 in the prior year quarter. The effect of our indirect investment in The Dun and Bradstreet Corporation (the "D&B Investment") was a reduction of Net earnings of $13.3 million, or $0.09 per diluted share. Net earnings margin was 10.8% compared to 14.5% in the prior year quarter.
Adjusted Revenues for the second quarter of 2019 increased 6% to $295.1 million compared to $277.4 million in the prior year quarter.

Black Knight Executive Chairman Bill Foley said, "Our second quarter results highlight the ongoing strength of our core business as we continued to expand and extend our relationships with existing clients through cross-sell and contract renewals, winning new clients in existing markets and delivering innovative new solutions."
Black Knight Chief Executive Officer Anthony Jabbour added, "We are pleased with our solid results in the second quarter. We successfully executed initiatives across the enterprise to deliver Adjusted Revenue growth of 6% and Adjusted EBITDA growth of 10% compared to the prior year quarter. While our performance through the first half of the year was in line with our expectations, we have updated our full year 2019 outlook to reflect an earlier than planned client deconversion that was the result of a decision we made to no longer support a non-core, single-client platform."
Revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2019 increased 6% to $578.0 million compared to $546.9 in the 2018 period.

Definitions of non-GAAP financial measures and the reconciliations to the most directly comparable GAAP measures are provided in subsequent sections of the press release narrative and supplemental schedules. Black Knight has not provided a reconciliation of forward-looking Adjusted EPS and Adjusted EBITDA to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures, due primarily to variability and difficulty in making accurate forecasts and projections of non-operating matters that may arise, as not all of the information necessary for a quantitative reconciliation is available to Black Knight without unreasonable effort. For the same reasons, Black Knight is unable to address the probable significance of the information.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This earnings release contains non-GAAP financial measures, including Adjusted Revenues, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Adjusted Net Earnings and Adjusted EPS. These are important financial 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 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 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 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, net earnings, net earnings per share, net earnings margin or any other measures derived in accordance with GAAP as measures of operating performance or liquidity. Reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are presented in the attached schedules.
Adjusted Revenues, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin 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 2019 is expected to be approximately $0.5 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;
-- Impairment charges;
-- Interest expense, net;
-- Income tax expense;
-- Other expense, net;
-- Equity in losses of unconsolidated affiliates, net of tax;
-- 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:
-- equity in losses of unconsolidated affiliates, net of tax;
-- the net incremental depreciation and amortization adjustments associated
with the application of purchase accounting, primarily related to the
FNF acquisition of a predecessor of Black Knight in January 2014;
-- 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 primarily related to 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 EPS - Adjusted EPS is calculated by dividing Adjusted Net Earnings by the diluted weighted average shares of common stock outstanding.
