2010 Highlights
    Net revenues of $1,782.6 million, down $31.5 million, or 1.7%, as compared to 2009.
 
    Operating income of $313.6 million, up $47.4 million, or 17.8%, as compared to 2009. Operating income for 2009 included a $44.2 million non-cash write-down of the value of the Harland Clarke tradename.
 
    Net income of $120.9 million, up $1.2 million, or 1.0%, as compared to 2009. Net income for 2009 included a $65.0 million ($40.1 million after tax) gain on early extinguishment of Harland Clarke Holdings’ debt, partially offset by the $44.2 million ($27.0 million after tax) non-cash write-down of the value of the Harland Clarke tradename. The increase in net income for 2010 also reflects a $21.3 million ($13.2 million after tax) decrease in interest expense.
Full Year 2010 Performance
Consolidated Results
     Consolidated net revenues decreased by $31.5 million, or 1.7%, to $1,782.6 million for 2010 from $1,814.1 million for 2009. The decrease was primarily due to volume declines for the Harland Clarke and Scantron segments, partially offset by revenues from Harland Clarke’s 2009 acquisitions of Protocol IMS and SubscriberMail, increased revenues for the Licorice Products segment, as well as increased revenues for the Harland Financial Solutions segment.
     Operating income increased by $47.4 million, or 17.8%, to $313.6 million for 2010 from $266.2 million for 2009. The increase was primarily due to a $40.7 million decrease in asset impairment charges, labor cost reductions resulting from restructuring activities and a $10.2 million decrease in restructuring costs, partially offset by volume declines for the Harland Clarke and Scantron segments, an increase in amortization expense of $6.3 million resulting from the reclassification of the Harland Clarke tradename from an indefinite-lived to a definite-lived intangible asset in the fourth quarter of 2009 for the Harland Clarke and Harland Financial Solutions segments and a change in the mix of products sold and increased raw material costs for the Licorice Products segment.
     Net income increased by $1.2 million, or 1.0%, to $120.9 million for 2010 from $119.7 million for 2009. The increase was primarily due to the $47.4 million ($29.4 million after tax) increase in operating income and a $21.3 million ($13.2 million after tax) decrease in interest expense due to lower effective interest rates and a decrease in total debt outstanding, substantially offset by a $65.0 million ($40.1 million after tax) reduction in gains on early extinguishment of debt.
     Adjusted EBITDA decreased by $7.2 million, or 1.4%, to $502.6 million for 2010 from $509.8 million for 2009. Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP measure that is defined in the footnotes to this release and reconciled to net income, the most directly comparable GAAP measure, in the accompanying financial tables.
Segment Results
     Net revenues for the Harland Clarke segment decreased by $34.8 million, or 2.8%, to $1,191.2 million in 2010 from $1,226.0 million in 2009. The decrease was primarily due to volume declines in check and related products, the loss of a client and a

 


 

decrease in revenues per unit, partially offset by a $27.0 million increase in revenues from businesses acquired in 2009, the addition of new clients, and a one-time payment resulting from the loss of a client. Revenues from new client additions more than offset lost revenues from client losses. Operating income for the Harland Clarke segment increased by $42.2 million, or 21.6%, to $238.0 million in 2010 from $195.8 million in 2009. The increase in operating income was primarily due to a $29.9 million decrease in asset impairment charges, as well as labor cost reductions and decreases in depreciation and occupancy expenses, primarily resulting from restructuring activities, a $13.4 million decrease in restructuring costs, and a one-time payment resulting from the loss of a client. These were partially offset by volume declines, an increase in amortization expense of $4.6 million resulting from the reclassification of the Harland Clarke tradename from an indefinite-lived to a definite-lived intangible asset in the fourth quarter of 2009, and costs in connection with investments in growth initiatives. Operating income for 2010 and 2009 includes restructuring costs of $12.3 million and $25.7 million, respectively.
     Net revenues for the Harland Financial Solutions segment increased by $3.8 million, or 1.4%, to $282.7 million in 2010 from $278.9 million in 2009. Increases in term license, maintenance, outsourced host processing revenues and early termination fees as well as revenues from the Parsam acquisition were partially offset by decreases in other license revenues and hardware sales. Operating income for the Harland Financial Solutions segment increased by $15.8 million, or 48.2%, to $48.6 million in 2010 from $32.8 million in 2009. The increase in operating income was primarily due to a $10.6 million decrease in asset impairment charges, increased revenues, a $2.4 million decrease in compensation expense related to an incentive agreement from an acquisition, labor cost reductions resulting from restructuring activities, and a $1.0 million decrease in restructuring costs. These changes were partially offset by a $1.7 million increase in amortization expense resulting from the reclassification of the Harland Clarke tradename from an indefinite-lived to a definite-lived intangible asset in the fourth quarter of 2009. Operating income for 2010 includes charges of $1.1 million for compensation expense related to an incentive agreement from an acquisition and $2.8 million for restructuring costs. Operating income for 2009 includes charges of $3.5 million for compensation expense related to an incentive agreement from an acquisition and $3.8 million for restructuring costs.
     Net revenues for the Scantron segment decreased by $4.3 million, or 2.1%, to $203.7 million in 2010 from $208.0 million in 2009. The decrease was primarily due to declines in forms, hardware and service maintenance revenues, partially offset by increases in revenues from web-based products and services for the education market, sales of a solution that assists financial institutions with the implementation of changes to federal regulations regarding overdraft services provided to financial institution customers and revenues from the acquisition of Spectrum K12 School Solutions in July 2010. Operating income for the Scantron segment decreased by $9.2 million, or 26.7%, to $25.3 million in 2010 from $34.5 million in 2009. The decrease in operating income was primarily due to a $4.2 million increase in restructuring costs, volume declines, and costs incurred in connection with investments in growth initiatives in 2010, partially offset by labor cost reductions resulting from restructuring activities and decreases in integration expenses. Operating income for 2010 and 2009 includes restructuring costs of $7.2 million and $3.0 million, respectively.
     Net revenues for the Licorice Products segment increased by $9.6 million, or 9.4%, to $111.4 million in 2010 from $101.8 million in 2009. Magnasweet and pure licorice derivative sales increased by $4.8 million primarily due to an increase in shipment volumes to international customers. Sales of licorice extract to the worldwide tobacco industry increased by $3.2 million in 2010 compared to 2009. Certain customers reduced their licorice extract purchases during 2009 and resumed more normal purchase patterns in 2010. Sales of licorice extract to non-tobacco customers increased by $1.6 million primarily due to an increase in shipment volumes to confectionery customers partially offset by the unfavorable impact of the U.S. dollar translation of Mafco Worldwide’s Euro denominated sales due to the stronger dollar in 2010 versus 2009. Operating income for the Licorice Products segment decreased by $3.7 million, or 11.5%, to $28.4 million in 2010 from $32.1 million in 2009. The decrease in operating income was primarily due to a change in the mix of products sold resulting in lower average revenues per unit, increased raw material costs as a percentage of sales and increased selling, general and administrative expenses.
Fourth Quarter 2010 Performance
Consolidated Results
     Consolidated net revenues decreased by $13.0 million, or 2.9%, to $434.2 million for the fourth quarter of 2010 from $447.2 million for the fourth quarter of 2009. The decrease was primarily due to volume declines and decreased revenues per unit for the Harland Clarke segment, partially offset by a $4.3 million increase in revenues from Harland Clarke’s 2009 acquisitions of Protocol IMS and SubscriberMail, increased revenues from the Licorice Products segment, as well as increased revenues for the Harland Financial Solutions and Scantron segments.

     Operating income increased by $36.2 million to $72.5 million for the fourth quarter of 2010 from $36.3 million for the fourth quarter of 2009. The increase was primarily due to a $43.0 million decrease in asset impairment charges, partially offset by volume declines and decreased revenues per unit for the Harland Clarke segment and a $3.6 million increase in restructuring charges.
     Net income increased by $24.5 million to $27.3 million for the fourth quarter of 2010 from $2.8 million for the fourth quarter of 2009. The increase was primarily due to the $36.2 million ($22.4 million after tax) increase in operating income and a $2.8 million ($1.7 million after tax) decrease in interest expense, partially offset by a $3.0 million ($1.9 million after tax) reduction in gains on early extinguishment of debt.
     Adjusted EBITDA decreased by $3.3 million, or 2.6%, to $121.3 million for the fourth quarter of 2010 from $124.6 million for the fourth quarter of 2009. Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP measure that is defined in the footnotes to this release and reconciled to net income, the most directly comparable GAAP measure, in the accompanying financial tables.
Segment Results
     Net revenues for the Harland Clarke segment decreased by $15.3 million, or 5.1%, to $284.3 million for the fourth quarter of 2010 from $299.6 million for the fourth quarter of 2009. The decrease was primarily due to volume declines in check and related products, the loss of a client and a decrease in revenues per unit, partially offset by a $4.3 million increase in revenues from businesses acquired in 2009 and the addition of new clients. Revenues from new client additions more than offset lost revenues from client losses. Operating income for the Harland Clarke segment increased by $31.9 million, or 137.5%, to $55.1 million for the fourth quarter of 2010 from $23.2 million for the fourth quarter of 2009. The increase in operating income was primarily due to a $32.2 million decrease in asset impairment charges, as well as labor cost reductions and decreases in depreciation and occupancy expenses primarily resulting from restructuring activities, and decreases in general overhead expenses. These changes were partially offset by volume declines, a decrease in revenues per unit, and a $0.9 million increase in restructuring costs. Operating income for the fourth quarter of 2010 and 2009 includes restructuring costs of $4.8 million and $3.9 million, respectively.
     Net revenues for the Harland Financial Solutions segment increased by $0.3 million, or 0.4%, to $72.4 million for the fourth quarter of 2010 from $72.1 million for the fourth quarter of 2009. Increases in maintenance, outsourced host processing, term license and other license revenues were partially offset by a decrease in hardware sales. Operating income for the Harland Financial Solutions segment increased by $7.3 million, or 155.3%, to $12.0 million for the fourth quarter of 2010 from $4.7 million for the fourth quarter of 2009. The increase in operating income was primarily due to a $10.6 million decrease in asset impairment charges and a $0.6 million reduction in compensation expense related to an incentive agreement, partially offset by a $2.5 million increase in restructuring costs. Operating income for the fourth quarter of 2010 includes $2.2 million for restructuring costs. Operating income for the fourth quarter of 2009 includes charges of $0.6 million for compensation expense related to an incentive agreement from an acquisition and $(0.3) million for restructuring costs.
     Net revenues for the Scantron segment increased by $0.2 million, or 0.4%, to $50.2 million for the fourth quarter of 2010 from $50.0 million for the fourth quarter of 2009. The increase was primarily due to the acquisition of Spectrum K12 School Solutions in July 2010, higher revenue from web-based products and services for the education market and an increase in revenue from installation contracts. These increases were partially offset by declines in hardware, service maintenance and forms revenues. Operating income for the Scantron segment decreased by $3.6 million, or 36.4%, to $6.3 million for the fourth quarter of 2010 from $9.9 million for the fourth quarter of 2009. The decrease in operating income was primarily due to costs incurred in connection with investments in growth initiatives in 2010.
     Net revenues for the Licorice Products segment increased by $2.2 million, or 8.6%, to $27.8 million for the fourth quarter of 2010 from $25.6 million for the fourth quarter of 2009. Sales of licorice extract to the worldwide tobacco industry increased by $1.2 million in 2010 compared to 2009. Certain customers reduced their licorice extract purchases during 2009 and resumed more normal purchase patterns in 2010. Magnasweet and pure licorice derivative sales increased by $1.1 million primarily due to an increase in shipment volumes to international customers. Sales of licorice extract to non-tobacco customers declined by $0.1 million primarily due to an increase in shipment volumes to confectionery customers which was more than offset by the unfavorable impact of the U.S. dollar translation of Mafco Worldwide’s Euro denominated sales due to the stronger dollar in 2010 versus 2009. Operating income for the Licorice Products segment decreased by $0.7 million, or 9.0%, to $7.1 million for the fourth quarter of 2010 from $7.8 million for the fourth quarter of 2009. The decrease in operating income was primarily due to a change in the mix of products sold resulting in lower average revenues per unit, increased raw material costs as a percentage of sales and increased selling, general and administrative expenses.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
     In this release, M & F Worldwide presents certain adjusted financial measures that are not calculated according to generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”). These non-GAAP financial measures are designed to complement the GAAP financial information presented in this release because management believes they present information regarding M & F Worldwide that management believes is useful to investors. The non-GAAP financial measures presented should not be considered in isolation from or as a substitute for the comparable GAAP financial measure.
     EBITDA represents net income before interest income and expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization (other than amortization related to contract acquisition payments). M & F Worldwide presents EBITDA because it believes it is frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of companies in M & F Worldwide’s industries.
     M & F Worldwide believes EBITDA provides useful information with respect to its ability to meet its future debt service, capital expenditures, working capital requirements and overall operating performance, although EBITDA should not be considered as a measure of liquidity. In addition, M & F Worldwide utilizes EBITDA when interpreting operating trends and results of operations of its business.
     M & F Worldwide also uses EBITDA for the following purposes: Mafco Worldwide’s and Harland Clarke Holdings’ senior credit facilities use EBITDA (with additional adjustments) to measure compliance with financial covenants such as debt incurrence. M & F Worldwide’s subsidiaries executive compensation is based on EBITDA (with additional adjustments) performance measured against targets. EBITDA is also widely used by M & F Worldwide and others in its industry to evaluate and value potential acquisition candidates. EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool, and you should not consider it in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. See below for a description of these limitations. Because of these limitations, EBITDA should not be considered as a measure of discretionary cash available to M & F Worldwide to invest in the growth of its business.
     In addition, in evaluating EBITDA, you should be aware that in the future M & F Worldwide may incur expenses such as those excluded in calculating it. M & F Worldwide’s presentation of this measure should not be construed as an inference that its future results will be unaffected by unusual or non-recurring items.
     EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool, and you should not consider it in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Some of these limitations are:
    it does not reflect M & F Worldwide’s cash expenditures and future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments;
 
    it does not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, M & F Worldwide’s working capital needs;
 
    it does not reflect the significant interest expense or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments on M & F Worldwide’s debt;
 
    although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized will often have to be replaced in the future, and EBITDA does not reflect any cash requirements for such replacements;
 
    it is not adjusted for all non-cash income or expense items that are reflected in M & F Worldwide’s statements of cash flows; and
 
    other companies in M & F Worldwide’s industries may calculate EBITDA differently from M & F Worldwide, limiting its usefulness as a comparative measure.
     Because of these limitations, EBITDA should not be considered as a measure of discretionary cash available to invest in the growth of M & F Worldwide’s business or as a measure of cash that will be available to M & F Worldwide to meet its obligations. You should compensate for these limitations by relying primarily on M & F Worldwide’s GAAP results and using EBITDA only supplementally.

5


 

     M & F Worldwide presents Adjusted EBITDA as a supplemental measure of its performance. M & F Worldwide prepares Adjusted EBITDA by adjusting EBITDA to reflect the impact of a number of items it does not consider indicative of M & F Worldwide’s ongoing operating performance. Such items include, but are not limited to, gain on early extinguishment of debt, restructuring costs, asset impairment charges, deferred purchase price compensation related to an acquisition and certain acquisition accounting adjustments. You are encouraged to evaluate each adjustment and the reasons M & F Worldwide considers them appropriate for supplemental analysis. As an analytical tool, Adjusted EBITDA is subject to all of the limitations applicable to EBITDA. In addition, in evaluating Adjusted EBITDA, you should be aware that in the future, M & F Worldwide may incur expenses, including cash expenses, similar to the adjustments in this presentation. M & F Worldwide’s presentation of Adjusted EBITDA should not be construed as an inference that its future results will be unaffected by unusual or non-recurring items.
