TRANSUNION HOLDING COMPANY, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements
1. Significant Accounting and Reporting Policies
Basis of Presentation
Any reference in this report to "TransUnion," "TransUnion Holding," the “Company,” “we,” “us,” and “our” refers to TransUnion Holding Company, Inc. (“TransUnion") and its direct and indirect subsidiaries, including TransUnion Corp. ("TransUnion Corp").subsidiaries.

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of TransUnion have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, including normal recurring adjustments, considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated. The operating results of TransUnion for the periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year ending December 31, 2014. These unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with our audited financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on February 27, 2014.

Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements of TransUnion include the accounts of all of its majority-owned or controlled subsidiaries. Investments in unconsolidated entities in which the Company has at least a 20% ownership interest, or where it is able to exercise significant influence, are accounted for using the equity method. Nonmarketable investments in unconsolidated entities in which the Company has less than a 20% ownership interest, or where it is not able to exercise significant influence, are accounted for using the cost method and periodically reviewed for impairment.

Subsequent Events
Events and transactions occurring through the date of issuance of the financial statements have been evaluated by management and, when appropriate, recognized or disclosed in the financial statements or notes to the financial statements. See Note 13, "Subsequent Events" for information about our debt refinancing transaction occurring after the balance sheet date.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
On July 18, 2013, the FASBFinancial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued ASUAccounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2013-11, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit When a Net Operating Loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss, or a Tax Credit Carryforward Exist. ASU 2013-11 provides guidance on the presentation of unrecognized tax benefits to better reflect the manner in which an entity would settle at the reporting date any income taxes that would result from the disallowance of a tax position when net operating loss carryforwards, similar tax losses or tax credit carryforwards exist. The objective of ASU 2013-11 is to eliminate the diversity in practice of how companies present unrecognized tax benefits under these circumstances. ASU 2013-11 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2013. This guidance was adopted by the Company effective January 1, 2014, and did not result in a material change toin the Company’s consolidated financial statements. See Note 10, "Income Taxes," for further details regarding the impact of this adoption.

Recent Accounting Pronouncement Not Yet Adopted
ThereOn May 28, 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). This comprehensive guidance will replace all existing revenue recognition guidance and is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods therein. We are no recentcurrently assessing the impact this guidance will have on our financial statements once it is adopted.

On June 19, 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-12, Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Accounting for Share-Based Payments When the Terms of an Award Provide That a Performance Target Could Be Achieved after the Requisite Service Period. This update clarifies the accounting pronouncements thatfor share-based awards with performance targets. We are currently assessing the impact this guidance will have not yet been adopted.on our financial statements.

2. Business CombinationCombinations

TLO

On December 16, 2013, we acquired a 100% ownership interest in certain net assets of TLO, LLC ("TLO") for $153.4 million in cash. TLO provides data solutions for identity authentication, fraud prevention, and debt recovery. The Company established a newly incorporated entity, TransUnion Risk and Alternative Data Solutions, Inc. ("Alternative Data") to purchase the net assets of TLO. The results of operations of this business have been included as part of the USIS segment in the accompanying consolidated statements of income since the date of acquisition.

Purchase Price Allocation
The allocation of the purchase price is preliminary pending our review of the valuation of intangible assets and goodwill, which is expected to be completed during the second quarter of 2014. The preliminary fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of March 31,June 30, 2014, consisted of the following:

 $153.4
(1) 
All of the goodwill is deductible for tax purposes.

The excess of the purchase price over the preliminary fair value of the net assets acquired was recorded as goodwill. The purchase price of TLO exceeded the fair value of the net assets acquired due primarily to growth opportunities, synergies associated with its internal use software and our existing customer base and brand name, and other technological and operationsoperational synergies. Goodwill has been allocated to the USIS segment.
Identifiable Intangible Assets
The preliminary fair values of the intangible assets acquired consisted of the following:

Level 2 instruments consist of interest rate swaps that are further discussed in Note 9, “Debt.”“Debt”. We determined the fair value of the interest rate swaps using standard valuation models with market-based observable inputs including forward and spot exchange rates and interest rate curves. The total fair value of the swap instruments as of March 31, 2014, was a liability of $1.2 million and was included in other liabilities on our consolidated balance sheet. The net of tax unrealized loss on the swap instruments as of March 31, 2014, of $0.7 million was included in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss).

Level 3 instruments consist of contingent obligations owed to the sellers of e-Scan Data Systems, Inc. (“eScan”), an entity we acquired in 2013. The fair value was determined based on an income approach, using the expected earnings of eScan, and will be assessed each reporting period. The obligation has a maximum payout of $17.0 million, contingent upon eScan meeting certain performance requirements in future years,2015 and 2016, but is currently valued at $2.2 million. Any remeasurements of the fair value of this contingent obligation prior to payout will result in a gain or loss reflected in our consolidated statements of income.

The increase in other was due to the purchase of other current assets with the CIBIL acquisition.

These investments are included in other assets onin the consolidated balance sheet.sheets.

We use the equity method to account for investments in affiliates where we have at least a 20% ownership interest or where we are able to exercise significant influence. For these investments, we adjust the carrying value for our proportionate share of the affiliates’ earnings, losses and distributions, as well as for purchases and sales of our ownership interest.

We use the cost method to account for all other nonmarketable investments. For these investments, we adjust the carrying value for purchases and sales of our ownership interests.

For all investments, we adjust the carrying value if we determine that an other-than-temporary impairment in value has occurred. There wereDuring the six months ended June 30, 2014, we incurred an other-than-temporary impairment of $4.5 million for a cost method investment in our USIS segment that has sold its assets and is in the process of liquidating.

Our equity method investments increased duringDuring the first quarter of 2014, primarily as a result ofwe increased our increased ownershipequity interest in CIBIL from 27.5% to 47.5% and entered into agreements to acquire an additional 7.5% equity stake. On May 21, 2014, we acquired the additional 7.5% equity interest, obtained control and began to consolidate CIBIL as discussed in Note 5.part of our International segment. From May 21, 2014, forward, CIBIL is no longer an equity method investment.

The accounting guidance for acquisitions achieved in stages (ASC 805-10-25-10) requires us to remeasure our previously held equity interest in CIBIL to the fair value as of the date we obtained control. As a result, we recognized a gain of $21.7 million in other income and expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014.

Senior Secured Credit Facility
On June 15, 2010, the Company’s subsidiaries, TransUnion Corp and Trans Union LLC,Company entered into a senior secured credit facility ("credit facility") with various lenders. The credit facility consists of a senior secured term loan ("term loan") and a senior secured revolving line of credit ("revolving line of credit"). The credit facility was amended and restated onOn April 9, 2014, as discussedwe refinanced and amended the credit facility. The refinancing resulted in Note 12, "Subsequent Event."

Duringan increase in the first quarter of 2014,outstanding term loan from $1,120.5 million to $1,900.0 million. The amendment, among other things, reduced the Company borrowed $28.5 million on itsinterest rate floor and margins, reduced the amount available under the revolving line of credit from $210.0 million to partially fund$190.0 million, extended the purchasematurity dates, and changed certain covenant requirements. The additional borrowings were used in part to repay all amounts outstanding under the existing revolving line of additional equitycredit and pay fees and expenses associated with the refinancing transaction. On May 9, 2014, the remaining borrowings were used to redeem the entire $645.0 million outstanding balance of the 11.375% notes issued by TransUnion Financing Corp and Trans Union LLC including a prepayment premium and unpaid accrued interest through June 15, 2014. We refer to these transactions collectively as the "2014 Refinancing Transaction." The early redemption of the 11.375% notes resulted in CIBIL as discusseda net gain of $45.4 million recorded in Note 5, "Other Assets,"other income and Note 6, "Investmentsexpense in Affiliated Companies,"the consolidated statements of income consisting of the unamortized 2012 Change in Control Transaction fair value increase in the notes of $89.4 million less an early redemption premium and to pay certain administrative costs.other costs totaling $44.0 million. The credit facility refinancing resulted in $12.7 million of refinancing fees and other net costs expensed and recorded in other income and expense in the consolidated statements of income.

Interest rates on the refinanced term loan are based on the London Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR") unless otherwise elected, and subject to a floor of 1.00%, plus a margin of 2.75% or 3.00% depending on our senior secured net leverage ratio. Under the refinanced term loan, the Company is required to make principal payments of 0.25% of the refinanced original principal balance at the end of each quarter, with the remaining balance due April 9, 2021. The Company will also be required to make additional payments beginning in 2015 based on excess cash flows of the prior year. Depending on the senior secured net leverage ratio for the year, a principal payment of between zero and fifty percent of the excess cash flows will be due the following year.
Interest rates on the refinanced revolving line of credit are based on LIBOR unless otherwise elected, and subject to a floor of 1.00%, plus a margin of 2.50% or 2.75% depending on our senior secured net leverage ratio. There is a 0.375% or 0.50% annual commitment fee, depending on our senior secured net leverage ratio, payable quarterly based on the undrawn portion of the revolving line of credit. The commitment under the revolving line of credit expires on April 9, 2019.
With certain exceptions, the obligations are secured by a first-priority security interest in substantially all of the assets of Trans Union LLC, including its investment in subsidiaries. The credit facility continues to contain various restrictions and nonfinancial covenants, along with a senior secured net leverage ratio test. The nonfinancial covenants include restrictions on dividends, investments, dispositions, future borrowings and other specified payments, as well as additional reporting and disclosure requirements. We are in compliance with all of the loan covenants.
On April 30, 2012, we entered into swap agreements that effectively fixed the interest payments on a portion of the existing term loan at 2.033%, plus the applicable margin, beginning March 28, 2013. Under the swap agreements, which we havehad designated as cash flow hedges, we pay a fixed rate of interest of 2.033% and receive a variable rate of interest equal to the greater of 1.50% or the three month LIBOR. The net amount to be paid or received iswas recorded as an adjustment to interest expense. As a result of the April 9, 2014, credit facility amendment, the hedges were no longer expected to be highly effective and no longer qualify for hedge accounting. The total fair value of the swap instruments as of March 31,April 9, 2014, of $1.6 million was a liability of $1.2 million and was includedrecorded in other liabilities on ourin the consolidated balance sheet. The corresponding net of tax unrealized loss on the swap instruments as of March 31, 2014, of $0.7$1.0 million was included in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). For the three months ended March 31, 2014, there was no ineffectiveness recorded in the statement of income. In connection with the April 9, 2014, amendment and restatement of the senior secured credit facility, the Company does not expect the current hedge to be highly effective and therefore it will no longer qualify for hedge accounting. Accordingly, the $0.7 million net of tax unrealized loss on the swap recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income and will be amortized straight lineto interest expense on a straight-line basis through December 29, 2017, the remaining life of the swaps. Changes in the fair value of the swaps after April 9, 2014, are being recorded in other income and expense. We recorded a loss of $0.7 million for the change in the fair value of the swaps from April 9, 2014, through December 29, 2017, the end of the swap period.

Fair Value of Debt
The estimated fair values of our 9.625%, and 8.125% and 11.375% notes as of March 31,June 30, 2014, were $638.3 million, $419.5632.7 million and $695.0418.6 million, respectively, compared towith book values of $600.0 million, $398.4 million and $736.4398.5 million, respectively. The fair value of these fixed-rate notes, as determined under Level 2 of the fair-value hierarchy, is measured using quoted market prices of these publicly traded securities. The book value of our variable-rate debt approximates its fair value. The estimated fair value of our debt may not represent the actual settlement value due to redemption premiums and prepayment penalties that we may incur in connection with extinguishing our debt before its stated maturity.

10. Income Taxes

Over the last three years, what is referred toa tax law known as the “look-through rule” exception has been allowed to expire and has been retroactively reinstated, which has impacted TransUnion’s effective tax rate. The Internal Revenue CodeSubpart F requires U.S. corporate shareholders to recognize current U.S. taxable income from passive income, such as dividends earned, at certain foreign subsidiaries regardless of whether that income is remitted to the U.S. The look-through rule provides an exception to this recognition for subsidiary passive income attributable to an active business. When the look-through rule is not in effect, we are required under ASC 740-30 to accrue a tax liability for certain foreign earnings as if those earnings were distributed. During 2013, the look-through rule exception was retroactively reinstated and then, effective January 1, 2014, it was again allowed to expire.

The effective tax rate41.8% was lowerhigher than the 35% U.S. federal statutory rate due primarily to the expiration of the look-through rule effective January 1, 2014, and the application of ASC 740-30 to our unremitted foreign earnings, along with a changechanges in state income tax rates.

11. Operating Segments
Operating segments are businesses for which separate financial information is available and evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker in deciding how to allocate resources. This segment financial information is reported on the basis that is used for the internal evaluation of operating performance. The accounting policies of the segments are the same as described in Note 1, “Significant Accounting and Reporting Policies.”

We evaluate the performance of segments based on revenue and operating income. Intersegment sales and transfers have been eliminated and were not material.

The following is a more detailed description of the three operating segments and the Corporate unit, which provides support services to each operating segment:

U.S. Information Services
U.S. Information Services (“USIS”) provides consumer reports, credit scores, identity authentication and verification services, analytical services and decisioning technology to businesses in the United States through both direct and indirect channels. These services are offered to customers in the financial services, insurance, healthcare and other markets. These business customers use our products and services to acquire new customers, identify cross-selling opportunities, measure and manage debt portfolio risk, collect debt, manage fraud and determine and collect healthcare payments. This segment also provides mandated consumer services,

including dispute investigations, free annual credit reports and other requirements of the United States Fair Credit Reporting Act (“FCRA”), the Fair and Accurate Credit Transactions Act of 2003 (“FACTA”), and other credit-related legislation.

Table of Contents


International
The International segment provides services similar to our USIS segment to business customers outside the United States and automotive information and commercial data services to customers in select geographies. Depending on the maturity of the credit economy in each location, services may include credit reports, analytical and decision services, and risk management services. These services are offered to customers in a number of industries, including financial services, insurance, automotive, collections and communications, and are delivered through both direct and indirect channels. The International segment also provides consumer services similar to those offered in our Interactive segment, such as credit reports, credit scores and credit monitoring services. The two market groups in the International segment are developed markets, which includes Canada, Hong Kong and Puerto Rico, and emerging markets, which includes Africa, Latin America, India and other emerging markets in Asia Pacific.

Interactive
Interactive provides services to consumers, including credit reports, scores and credit and identity monitoring services, primarily through the internet. The majority of revenue is derived from both direct and indirect subscribers who pay a monthly fee for access to their credit report and score, and for alerts related to changes in their credit reports.

Corporate
Corporate provides shared services for the Company and conducts enterprise functions. Certain costs incurred in Corporate that are not directly attributable to one or more of the operating segments remain in Corporate. These costs are typically for enterprise-level functions and are primarily administrative in nature.

12. Subsequent Events
On April 9, 2014, TransUnion Corp. and Trans Union LLC refinanced and amended the senior secured credit facility. The refinancing resulted in an increase of the outstanding term loan from $1,120.5 million to $1,900.0 million. The amendment, among other things, reduced the interest rate floor and margins, reduced the amount available under the revolving line of credit from $210.0 million to $190.0 million, extended the maturity dates, and changed certain covenant requirements. The additional borrowings were used in part to repay all amounts outstanding under the existing revolving line of credit and pay fees and expenses associated with the refinancing transaction. On May 9, 2014, the remaining borrowings will be used to redeem the entire $645.0 million outstanding balance of the 11.375% notes issued by TransUnion Financing Corp and Trans Union LLC including unpaid accrued interest and a prepayment premium. We refer to these transactions collectively as the "2014 Refinancing Transaction." The 2014 Refinancing Transaction is expected to result in a net gain of approximately $30 million that will be recorded in the consolidated statement of income and approximately $9 million of additional deferred financing fees that will be recorded on the balance sheet in the second quarter of 2014.

References in this discussion and analysis to “TransUnion,” "TransUnion Holding," the “Company,” “we,” “our,” “us” and “its” are to TransUnion Holding Company, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries, collectively.
The following discussion and analysis of TransUnion's financial condition and results of operations is provided as a supplement to, and should be read in conjunction with, TransUnion Holding Company, Inc's audited consolidated financial statements, the accompanying notes, “Risk Factors” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013, as well as the unaudited consolidated financial statements and the related notes presented in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Overview
We are a leading global provider of information and risk management solutions. We provide these solutions to businesses across multiple industries and to individual consumers. Our technology and services enable businesses to make more timely and informed credit granting, risk management, underwriting, fraud protection and customer acquisition decisions by delivering high quality data, integrated with analytics and decision-making capabilities. Our interactive website provides consumers with real-time access to their personal credit information and analytical tools that help them understand and proactively manage their personal finances. Over a million unique consumers visit our website each month. We have operations in the United States, Africa, Canada, Latin America, Asia Pacific and India and provide services in 33 countries. Since our founding in 1968, we have built a diversified and stable customer base of approximately 45,000 businesses in multiple industries, including financial services, insurance, healthcare, automotive, retail and communications.

We generate revenues primarily from the sale of credit reports, credit marketing services, portfolio reviews and other credit-related services to qualified businesses both in the U.S. and internationally through direct and indirect channels. We maintain long-standing relationships with many of our largest customers, including relationships of over ten years with each of our top ten global financial services customers. We attribute the length of our customer relationships to the critical nature of the services we provide, our consistency and reliability, and our innovative and collaborative approach to developing integrated solutions that meet our customers’ continually changing needs. We also generate revenues by providing subscription-based interactive services to consumers that help them understand and manage their personal finances and that protect them from identity theft.

Recent Developments
On April 9, 2014, TransUnion Corp. ("TransUnion Corp") and Trans Union LLCthe Company refinanced and amended theits senior secured credit facility. The refinancing resulted in an increase of the outstanding term loan from $1,120.5 million to $1,900.0 million. The refinancing is expectedexcess proceeds were used to resultredeem the outstanding 11.375% notes including a prepayment premium and to pay an original issue discount and transaction fees. We refer to these transactions collectively as the 2014 Refinancing Transaction. The redemption of the 11.375% notes resulted in a net gain of approximately $30$45.4 million that will be recorded in other income and expense in the consolidated statementstatements of income consisting of the unamortized 2012 Change in Control Transaction fair value increase in the notes of $89.4 million less an early redemption premium and approximately $9other costs totaling $44.0 million. The refinancing of the senior secured credit facility resulted in $12.7 million of additionalrefinancing fees and other net costs expensed and recorded in other income and expense in the consolidated statements of income. We also incurred $5.0 million of new deferred financing fees that will bewere recorded onto other current assets and other assets in the consolidated balance sheet in the second quarter of 2014.sheets. See Part I, Item 1, Note 12, "Subsequent Event"9, "Debt," and the Liquidity and Capital Resources discussion below for additional information.
Segments
We manage our business and report our financial results in three operating segments: U.S. Information Services (“USIS”), International and Interactive.
USIS provides credit reports, credit scores, identity authentication and verification services, analytical services, decisioning technology and other services to businesses in the United States through both direct and indirect channels. USIS also provides healthcare insurance-related information to medical care providers, facilities and insurers. In addition, USIS fulfills mandated consumer services such as dispute investigations and free annual credit reports as required by the FCRA and other credit-related legislation. In this segment, we intend to continue to focus on expansion into underpenetrated and growth industries, such as insurance, healthcare, and alternative data, and the introduction of innovative and differentiated solutions in the financial services and other industries.
International provides services similar to our USIS and Interactive segments in many countries outside the United States. We believe our International segment represents a significant opportunity for growth as several of the countries in which we operate, such as India, Mexico and Brazil, continue to develop their economies and credit markets. We also seek to enter into and develop our business in new geographies.

Interactive provides primarily subscription-based services to consumers, including credit reports, credit scores and credit and identity monitoring, through both direct and indirect channels. As consumers become increasingly aware of their

Table of Contents

credit profiles and show heightened concerns over identity theft, we expect the Interactive segment to grow and represent an increasing portion of our overall revenue.
In addition, Corporate provides shared services for the Company and conducts enterprise functions. Certain costs incurred in Corporate that are not directly attributable to one or more of the operating segments remain in Corporate. These costs are typically for enterprise-level functions and are primarily administrative in nature.
Factors Affecting Our Results of Operations
Macroeconomic and Industry Trends
Our revenues are significantly influenced by general macroeconomic conditions, including the availability of affordable credit and capital, interest rates, inflation, employment levels, consumer confidence and housing demand. For the past couple oflast few years, economic conditions have remained relatively stable, however confidence about economic conditions continues to be a concern that has limited consumer spending. Mortgage rates in the United States have increased since the first quarter of 2013, resulting in fewer mortgage refinancings year-over-year and restrained growth in our USIS segment. In addition, the continued strengthening of the USU.S. dollar has diminished the operating results of our International segment.
Our revenues are also significantly influenced by industry trends, including the demand for information services in the financial services, insurance, healthcare and other industries we serve. Companies increasingly rely on data and analytics to make more informed decisions, operate their businesses more effectively and manage risk. Similarly, consumers seek information to help them understand and proactively manage their personal finances and to better protect themselves against identity theft. We expect that increased demand for targeted data and sophisticated analytical tools will drive revenue growth in all of our segments.
Recent Acquisitions and Partnerships
We selectively evaluate acquisitions and partnerships as a means to expand our business, increase our international footprint and enter into new markets.
During the first quarter of 2014, we increased our ownershipequity interest in Credit Information Bureau (India) Limited (“CIBIL”), from 27.5% to 47.5% and entered into agreements to acquire an additional 7.5%. In equity interest. On May 21, 2014, we received regulatory approvalacquired the additional 7.5% equity interest, obtained control and began to increaseconsolidate the results of operations of CIBIL as part of our ownership interestInternational segment in CIBIL to 55.0% and expect to complete these transactions in the second quarterour consolidated statements of 2014.income.
Effective January 1, 2014, we acquired the remaining 30% ownershipequity interest in our Guatemala subsidiary, Trans Union Guatemala, S.A. (TransUnion Guatemala) from the minority shareholders. As a result of this acquisition, the Company no longer records net income attributable to noncontrolling interests for this subsidiary.
On December 16, 2013, we acquired a 100% ownership interest in certain assets of TLO, LLC ("TLO"). TLO provides data solutions for due diligence, threat assessment, identity authentication, fraud prevention, and debt recovery. The results of operations of TLO which are not material, have been included as part of our USIS segment in our consolidated statements of income since the date of the acquisition.
On September 4, 2013, we acquired a 100% ownershipequity interest in e-Scan Data Systems, Inc. ("eScan"). eScan provides services to hospitals and healthcare providers to efficiently capture uncompensated care costs in their revenue management cycle programs. The results of operations of eScan which are not material, have been included as part of our USIS segment in our consolidated statements of income since the date of the acquisition.
On March 1, 2013, we acquired an 80% ownershipequity interest in Data Solutions Serviços de Informática Ltda. (“ZipCode”). ZipCode provides data enrichment and registry information to companies in Brazil’s information management, financial services, marketing and telecommunications segments. The results of operations of ZipCode which are not material, have been included as part of our International segment in our consolidated statements of income since the date of the acquisition.

(2)Adjusted Operating Income and Adjusted EBITDA are non-GAAP measures. We present Adjusted Operating Income and Adjusted EBITDA as supplemental measures of our operating performance because they eliminate the impact of certain items that we do not consider indicative of our ongoing operating performance. In addition to its use as a measure of our operating performance, our board of directors and executive management team use Adjusted EBITDA as a compensation measure. Adjusted Operating Income does not reflect certain stock-based compensation and certain other income and expense. Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect our capital expenditures, interest, income tax, depreciation, amortization, stock-based compensation and certain other income and expense. Other companies in our industry may calculate Adjusted Operating Income and Adjusted EBITDA differently than we do, limiting their usefulness as comparative measures. Because of these limitations, Adjusted Operating Income and Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered in isolation or as substitutes for performance measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. Adjusted Operating Income and Adjusted EBITDA are not measures of financial condition or profitability under GAAP and should not be considered alternatives to cash flow from operating activities, as measures of liquidity or as alternatives to operating income or net income as indicators of operating performance. We believe that the most directly comparable GAAP measure to Adjusted Operating Income is operating income and the most directly comparable GAAP measure to Adjusted EBITDA is net income attributable to the Company. The reconciliations of Adjusted Operating Income and Adjusted EBITDA to their nearest GAAP measures are included in the table above.

Provision for Income Taxes

Over the last three years, what is referred toa tax law known as the “look-through rule” exception has been allowed to expire and has been retroactively reinstated, which has impacted TransUnion’s effective tax rate. The Internal Revenue CodeSubpart F requires U.S. corporate shareholders to recognize current U.S. taxable income from passive income, such as dividends earned, at certain foreign subsidiaries regardless of whether that income is remitted to the U.S. The look-through rule provides an exception to this recognition for subsidiary passive income attributable to an active business. When the look-through rule is not in effect, we are required under ASC 740-30 to accrue a tax liability for certain foreign earnings as if those earnings were distributed. During 2013, the look-through rule exception was retroactively reinstated and then, effective January 1, 2014, it was again allowed to expire.

For the three months ended March 31,June 30, 2014, we reported a loss before income taxes and anthe effective tax rate benefit of 0.7%. The effective tax rate41.8% was lowerhigher than the 35% U.S. federal statutory rate due primarily to the expiration of the look-through rule effective January 1, 2014, and the application of ASC 740-30 to our unremitted foreign earnings, along with a changechanges in state income tax rates.

For the three months ended March 31,June 30, 2013, we reported a loss before income taxes and an effective tax benefit rate benefit of 15.3%23.8%. The effective taxThis rate was lower than the 35% U.S. federal statutory rate due primarily to the retroactive reinstatementimpact of lower foreign tax rates on interim period tax expense.

For the six months ended June 30, 2014, the effective tax rate of 68.9% was higher than the 35% U.S. federal statutory rate due primarily to the expiration of the look-through rule and the application of ASC 740-30 to our unremitted foreign earnings, along with increased tax on foreign dividends and an increase in the state income tax rate. For the six months ended June 30, 2013, we reported a loss before income taxes and an effective January 1, 2013,tax benefit rate of 19.3%. This rate was lower than the 35% U.S. federal statutory rate due primarily to the net impact on deferred tax of the look-through rule reinstatement, an increase to the state income tax rate and a change in statethe effect of lower foreign tax rates partially offset by a reduced rate ofon interim period tax on our foreign earnings.expense.

We believe our cash on hand, cash generated from operations, and funds available under the senior secured revolving credit facility will be sufficient to finance our liquidity requirements for the foreseeable future. We may, however, elect to raise funds through debt or equity financing in the future to fund significant investments or acquisitions that are consistent with our growth strategy.

Cash and cash equivalents totaled $59.4$93.2 million and $111.2 million at March 31,June 30, 2014, and December 31, 2013, respectively, of which $48.4$56.5 million and $80.6 million was held outside the United States. As of March 31,June 30, 2014, we had $28.5 million ofno outstanding borrowings against the senior secured revolving credit facility and could have borrowed up to an additional $181.5 million.the full $190.0 million available. Beginning in 2015, under the amended senior secured term loan we will be required to make additional principal payments based on the previous year’s excess cash flows. See Part I, Item 1, Note 9 “Debt,” and Note 12, "Subsequent Events," for additional information about our debt.

Debt
Senior Secured Credit Facility
On April 9, 2014, TransUnion Corp. ("TransUnion Corp") and Trans Union LLCwe refinanced and amended theour senior secured credit facility. The refinancing resulted in an increase of the outstanding term loan from $1,120.5 million to $1,900.0 million. The amendment, among other things, reduced the interest rate floor and margins, reduced the amount available under the revolving line of credit from $210.0 million to $190.0 million, extended the maturity dates, and changed certain covenant requirements. The additional borrowings were used to in part to repay all amounts outstanding under the existing revolving line of credit and pay fees and expenses associated with the refinancing transaction. On May 9, 2014, the remaining borrowings will bewere used to redeem the entire $645.0 million outstanding balance of the 11.375% notes issued by TransUnion Financing Corp and Trans Union LLC including unpaid accrued interest and a prepayment premium. We refer to these transactions collectively as the "2014 Refinancing Transaction." The 2014 Refinancing Transaction is expected to resultresulted in a net gain of approximately $30$32.7 million that will bewas recorded in the consolidated statement of income and approximately $9$5.0 million of additional deferred financing fees that will bewere recorded onin the consolidated balance sheet in the second quarter of 2014. The 2014 Refinancing Transaction is also expected to result in a reduction ofin cash paid for interest expense of approximately $45 million annually at current interest rates beginning in May, 2014.
11.375% notes
In connection with the 2010 Change in Control Transaction, on June 15, 2010, we issued $645.0 million principal amount of 11.375% senior unsecured notes ("11.375% notes") due June 15, 2018. As a result of the 2012 Change in Control Transaction, a purchase accounting fair value adjustment increase of $124.2 million was allocated to the senior notes. These notes were repaid

incremental proceeds borrowed on our senior secured credit facility.
Effect of Certain Debt Covenants
Effective with the 2014 Refinancing Transaction, certain covenant requirements, including TransUnion Corp's capacity to make dividend distributions to TransUnion Holding were amended. See Item 1, Note 12, "Subsequent Event," for additional information.

The Company'sOur senior secured revolving line of credit facility includes a senior secured net leverage ratio covenant which must be tested as a condition to borrowing and as ofincur additional indebtedness. The ratio must also be tested at the end of any fiscal quarter for which we have a line of credit borrowings outstanding. On March 31, 2014, the Company had borrowingsborrowing outstanding in excess of $28.5 outstanding against30% of the revolving line of credit and was subject to the net leverage ratio covenant.commitment. As of March 31,June 30, 2014, this covenant, if it applied, would have required us to maintain a senior secured net leverage ratio on a pro forma basis equal to, or less than, 4.00-to-1. The senior secured net leverage ratio as of March 31, 2014, was 2.63 to 1.6.00-to-1. The senior secured net leverage ratio is the ratio of TransUnion Corp's consolidated senior secured net debt to TransUnion Corp's consolidated EBITDA for the trailing twelve months as defined in the credit agreement governing our senior secured credit facility (“Covenant EBITDA”). Covenant EBITDA for the trailing twelve-month period ended March 31,June 30, 2014,, totaled $417.7$438.8 million. Covenant EBITDA was higher than Adjusted EBITDA by $41.4$55.1 million for the trailing twelve-month period ended March 31,June 30, 2014,, due to adjustments for noncontrolling interests, equity investments and other adjustments as defined in the credit agreement governing our senior secured credit facility. On June 30, 2014, the Company had no borrowings outstanding against the revolving line of credit and was therefore not subject to the net leverage ratio covenant. However, the senior secured net leverage ratio as of June 30, 2014, was 4.13 to 1.

Under the covenants of the instruments governing our senior debt, TransUnion Corp is restricted from making certain payments, including dividenddistribution payments to TransUnion Holding.Holding Company, Inc. As of March 31,June 30, 2014,, and December 31, 2013, TransUnion Corp’s capacity to make these dividend distributionspayments was restricted to approximately $125$145 million and $140 million, respectively. As result of the 2014 Refinancing Transaction, TransUnion Corp can make dividend payments to TransUnion Holding Company, Inc. for the purpose of making interest payments, without restrictions.

On April 30, 2012, we entered into swap agreements that effectively fixed the interest payments on a portion of the existing term loan at 2.033%, plus the applicable margin, beginning March 28, 2013. Under the swap agreements, which we have designated as cash flow hedges, we pay a fixed rate of interest of 2.033% and receive a variable rate of interest equal to the greater of 1.50% or the three month LIBOR. The net amount paid or received is recorded as an adjustment to interest expense. As a result of the April 9, 2014, credit facility amendment, the hedges were no longer expected to be highly effective and no longer qualify for hedge accounting. The total fair value of the swap instruments as of April 9, 2014, of $1.6 million was recorded in other liabilities. The corresponding net of tax loss of $1.0 million was recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income and will be amortized to interest expense on a straight-line basis through December 29, 2017, the remaining life of the swaps. Changes in the fair value of the swaps after April 9, 2014, are being recorded in other income and expense. We recorded a loss of $0.7 million for the change in the fair value of the swaps from April 9, 2014, through June 30, 2014.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

We operate internationally and are subject to various market risks, including those caused by potentially adverse movements in foreign currency exchange rates. We also have a significant amount of variable rate debt and funds invested in interest bearing accounts.

On April 30, 2012, we entered into swap agreements that effectively fixed the interest payments on a portion of the term loan at 2.033%, plus the applicable margin, beginning March 28, 2013. Under the swap agreements, which we have designated as cash flow hedges, we pay a fixed rate of interest of 2.033% and receive a variable rate of interest equal to the greater of 1.50% or the 3-month LIBOR. The net amount paid or received was recorded as an adjustment to interest expense. As a result of the April 9, 2014, senior secured credit facility amendment, this hedge is no longer expected to be highly effective and no longer qualifies for hedge accounting. Changes in the fair value of the swap after April 9, 2014, are being recorded in other income and expense. We recorded a loss of $0.7 million on the swap in the second quarter of 2014.

There have been no other material changes from the quantitative and qualitative disclosures about market risk included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. The term “disclosure controls and procedures” as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act, means controls and procedures of a company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is timely reported.

Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the company’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives and management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Based on the evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of such date, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level.

Changes in Internal Controls Over Financial Reporting

During the quarter covered by this report, there have been no changes in our internal controls that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
General
We are involved in various legal proceedings resulting from our current or past business operations. Some of these proceedings seek business practice changes or large damage awards. These actions generally assert claims for violations of federal or state credit reporting, consumer protection or privacy laws, or common law claims related to privacy, libel, slander or the unfair treatment of consumers. We believe that most of these claims are either without merit or we have valid defenses to the claims, and we intend to vigorously defend these matters or seek non-monetary or small monetary settlements, if possible. However, due to the uncertainties inherent in litigation we cannot predict the outcome of each claim in each instance.these claims.

On a regular basis we accrue reserves for these claims based on our historical experience and our ability to reasonably estimate and ascertain the probability of any liability. See our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013, Part II, Item 8, “Combined Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements,” Note 18, “Contingencies,” for additional information about these reserves. However, for certain cases we are not able to reasonably estimate our exposure because damages have not been specified and (i) the proceedings are in early stages, (ii) there is uncertainty as to the likelihood of a class being certified or the ultimate size of the class, (iii) there is uncertainty as to the outcome of similar cases pending against our competitors, (iv) there

Table of Contents

are significant factual issues to be resolved, and/or (v) there are legal issues of a first impression being presented. However, for these cases we do not believe, based on currently available information, that the outcomes will have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, although the outcomes could be material to our operating results for any particular period.

To reduce our exposure to an unexpected significant monetary award resulting from an adverse judicial decision we maintain insurance that we believe is appropriate and adequate based on our historical experience. We regularly advise our insurance carriers of the claims (threatened or pending) against us and generally receive a reservation of rights letter from the carriers when such claims exceed applicable deductibles. We are not aware of any significant monetary claim that has been asserted against us that would not have some level of coverage by insurance after the relevant deductible, if any, is met.

The following discussion describes material legal proceedings that arose, and any material developments in previously disclosed material legal proceedings that occurred, in the three months ended June 30, 2014. Refer to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013, for a full description of our other material pending legal proceedings.

TableOn July 24, 2014, the Court in Ramirez v. Trans Union LLC certified a class of Contentsapproximately 8,000 individuals solely for purposes of statutory damages if TransUnion is ultimately found to have willfully violated the FCRA, and a sub-class of California residents solely for purposes of injunctive relief under the California Consumer Credit Reporting Agencies Act.  While the Court noted that the plaintiff is not seeking any actual monetary damage, the class certification order was predicated on a disputed question of Ninth Circuit law (currently there is a conflict between the federal circuits) that is awaiting action by the United States Supreme Court. 


Guatemala Amparo
A constitutional action (Amparo 01161-2013-00084-OF. 3o. Juzgado Decimo Primero de Primera Instancia del Ramo Civil del Departamento de Guatemala, Constituido en Tribunal de Amparo ) was filed in Guatemala in February 2013, against Trans Union Guatemala, S.A. and five other unrelated consumer data information companies by a Guatemalan government official (in his official capacity) alleging that TransUnion and the other entities are violating the fundamental rights of privacy, freedom of action, and right to work of Guatemalan citizens because they may collect and use personal information without obtaining the consent of the individual to which that information pertains. On July 10, 2014, the amparo was granted with respect to the segment of our consumer database, if any, for which we have not obtained adequate consent from the individual consumer. We have appealed that decision. TransUnion believes that it is operating in full compliance with all laws of Guatemala and will continue to defend this matter vigorously.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
In addition to the other information included in this report, you should carefully consider the factors discussed in “Risk��Risk Factors” included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013, as well as the factors identified under “Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” at the end of Part I, Item 2 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, which could materially affect our business, financial condition or future results. The risks described in our Annual Report on Form 10- K and this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are not the only risks facing TransUnion. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial may also materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, and operating results.
