HEARTLAND PAYMENT SYSTEMS REPORTS 35% INCREASE IN SECOND
QUARTER ADJUSTED EARNINGS PER SHARE
Princeton, NJ - July 28, 2011 - Heartland Payment Systems, Inc. (NYSE: HPY), one of the nation's largest payments processors, today announced second quarter GAAP net income of $12.3 million, or $0.31 per diluted share. Results for the quarter are after $372,000 (pre-tax), or less than one cent per diluted share, of various expenses attributable to the 2008 processing system intrusion. Excluding these expenses, Adjusted Net Income and Diluted Earnings per Share were $12.5 million and $0.31, respectively, for the second quarter. For the second quarter of 2010, adjusted net income and diluted earnings per share were $9.1 million and $0.23, respectively. Adjusted Net Income and Diluted Earnings per Share are non-GAAP measures that exclude certain items detailed later in this press release under the heading “Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures.”
Highlights for the Second Quarter include:
• | Small and mid-sized merchant (SME) transaction processing volume was a quarterly record $17.5 billion, up 7.2 percent from the second quarter of 2010 |
• | Net Revenue was a quarterly record $122.2 million, up 6.1 percent compared to the same quarter in 2010 |
• | An Operating Margin on net revenue of 17.7 percent, representing the best operating margin in almost three years, and up from 13.2 percent for the second quarter of 2010 |
• | Same store sales rose 2.5 percent, the fifth consecutive quarter of same store sales growth |
• | New margin installed was $12.6 million in the second quarter, up 3.6 percent from last year's second quarter |
• | Stock Compensation expense reduced earnings by $1.7 million pre-tax, or $0.03 per diluted share, in the quarter, compared to $1.2 million, or $0.02 per share in the second quarter of 2010 |
Robert Carr, Chairman and CEO, said, “Through the combination of steady growth across our card and non-card businesses and disciplined expense management, we achieved one of the most profitable quarters in the company's history. We've made continued progress with our new business initiatives, growing new margin installed once again this quarter, while simultaneously better leveraging our business model through the successful implementation of efficiency initiatives that drove the operating margin to 17.7%. In an economy that remains on the mend, we believe we can build value for our shareholders through the effective execution of our back-to-basics marketing strategy and the introduction of innovative new products and services in a rapidly evolving and dynamic

industry with strong growth opportunities.”
Net revenue in the second quarter of 2011 was up 6.1% to $122.2 million, compared to the second quarter of 2010. Net revenue growth was driven primarily by a record $17.5 billion in SME card processing volume, representing a 7.2% increase over the same quarter a year ago, as well as double-digit growth in our non-card businesses. Network Services transactions processed were a quarterly record 847 million, an increase of 6% from 800 million transactions in the second quarter of last year. In the second quarter of 2011, operating income as a percentage of net revenue was 17.7%, with processing and servicing, customer acquisition and depreciation expense all down compared to the second quarter of 2010. General and administrative expenses increased 21.9% in the quarter, consistent with our strategy to invest a portion of anticipated incremental operating income in long-term growth and productivity improvement initiatives. In the second quarter, the Company incurred $372,000 (pre-tax) in expenses attributable to the 2008 processing system intrusion. These expenses are shown separately in the Company's Statement of Income.
Mr. Carr continued, “Our key same store sales and new margin installed figures were up in the quarter, reflecting modest economic recovery at our merchants and continued strong new business productivity from our relationship managers. Although the relationship manager count was down this quarter, our new hire initiatives are showing early signs of success in developing extremely productive new relationship managers. These results are encouraging as it supports our plans to reinvigorate growth in our sales force while maintaining high overall RM productivity. New product introductions and acquisitions continue to succeed, with Smartlink and K-12, for instance, showing nice growth this quarter. Most importantly, with the implementation of new debit interchange rules rapidly approaching, we are preparing for a unique market-wide opportunity to more fully exploit the compelling value proposition of our Fair Deal. As an industry leader providing merchants transparent pricing, product innovation and end-to-end processing security, we believe we offer the SME market the most comprehensive and cost effective payments processing solution available.”
SIX MONTH RESULTS:
For the first six months of 2011, GAAP net income was $20.1 million or $0.50 per diluted share, compared to $20.4 million, or $0.52 per share for the first half of 2010. Net revenue for the first half of 2011 was $234.9 million, up 7.3% compared to the first half of 2010. Excluding various expenses, accruals, and insurance recoveries in 2010, all of which are attributable to the 2008 processing system intrusion, adjusted net income and diluted earnings per share for the first half of fiscal 2011 were $20.5 million or $0.51 per diluted share, compared to $10.8 million, or $0.28 per share in the first half of fiscal 2010. Year-to-date 2011, stock compensation expense has reduced earnings by $2.3 million or $0.058 per diluted share, compared to $1.7 million, or $0.044 per diluted share, a year ago.

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures And Regulation G Disclosure
To supplement its consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”), the Company provides additional measures of its operating results, namely net income and earnings per share, which exclude certain costs and expenses and recoveries related to the criminal breach in 2008 of its payment systems environment (the “Processing System Intrusion”). These measures meet the definition of a non-GAAP financial measure. The Company believes that application of these non-GAAP financial measures is appropriate to enhance understanding of its historical performance as well as prospects for its future performance.
Use and Economic Substance of the Non-GAAP Financial Measures- Management uses these non-GAAP measures to evaluate performance period over period, to analyze the underlying trends in the Company's business, to assess its on-going operating performance relative to its competitors, and to establish operational goals and forecasts. Net costs and expenses related to the Processing System Intrusion are not indicative of the Company's on-going operating performance and are therefore excluded by management in assessing the Company's operating performance, as well as from the measures used for making operating decisions, although in making operating decisions management is mindful of its need to utilize cash to pay for the costs and expenses relating to the Processing System Intrusion.
The following is an explanation of the adjustments that management excluded as part of its non-GAAP measures:
Provision for Processing System Intrusion - On January 20, 2009, the Company publicly announced the discovery of the Processing System Intrusion. Since its announcement of the Processing System Intrusion on January 20, 2009 and through June 30, 2011, the Company has expensed a total of $146.8 million, before reducing those charges by $31.2 million of total insurance recoveries. The majority of the total charges, or approximately $114.7 million, related to settlements of claims. Approximately $32.1 million of the total charges were for legal fees and costs we incurred for investigations, defending various claims and actions, remedial actions and crisis management services.
During the three months ended June 30, 2011, the Company incurred approximately $0.4 million, or less than one cent per share, for legal fees and costs it incurred for defending various claims and actions for the Processing System Intrusion. During the three months ended June 30, 2010, the Company expensed approximately $4.9 million, or $0.07 per share, related to the Processing System Intrusion.
During the six months ended June 30, 2011, the Company incurred approximately $0.7 million, or $0.01 per share, for legal fees and costs it incurred for defending various claims and actions for the Processing System Intrusion. During the six months ended June 30, 2010, the Company recovered from its insurance providers approximately $26.8 million of the costs it had previously incurred for the Processing System Intrusion and expensed approximately $11.3 million for accruals, legal fees and costs we incurred for defending various claims and actions, resulting in a net recovery of $15.5 million, or $0.24 per share for that period.
During 2009 and 2010, the Company settled the following claims and disputes related to the Processing System Intrusion:
• | On December 17, 2009, the Company entered into a settlement agreement and release with American Express and paid approximately $3.5 million in full and final satisfaction of any and all claims of American Express and its issuers arising from or relating to the Processing System Intrusion. The Company paid this settlement from its available cash. |
• | On January 7, 2010, the Company, Heartland Bank, KeyBank National Association (“KeyBank,” and, together with Heartland Bank, the “Sponsor Banks”), and Visa U.S.A. Inc., Visa International Service Association and Visa Inc. (collectively, “Visa”) entered into a settlement agreement to resolve potential claims and other disputes related to the 2008 Processing System Intrusion and on February 18, 2010 it paid $58.6 million for that settlement, after a $0.8 million credit for fines previously collected by Visa during 2009. The Company obtained loans totaling $53.0 million from Sponsor Banks, the proceeds of which were used to partially fund the settlement amount. See Note 11 Credit Facilities included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010 for a discussion of the $28.0 million Bridge Loan and $25.0 million Increased Credit Commitment, both entered into on February 18, 2010 and repaid on November 24, 2010 when the Company entered into a Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement. |
• | On May 19, 2010, the Company entered into a settlement agreement with MasterCard to resolve potential claims and other disputes related to the Processing System Intrusion and in September 2010 it agreed to pay a maximum of $34.8 million for that settlement, after a $6.6 million credit for fines previously collected by MasterCard during 2009. The Company paid this settlement from its available cash. |
Page 8
• | On August 31, 2010, the Company entered into a settlement agreement with Discover to resolve potential claims and other disputes with respect to the Processing System Intrusion and on September 2, 2010, it paid Discover $5.0 million in full and final satisfaction of any and all claims of Discover, its affiliates and certain of its issuers. The Company paid this settlement from its available cash. |
These settlement amounts were previously provided for in the Company's Provision for Processing System Intrusion and carried in its Reserve for Processing System Intrusion. The Company is prepared to vigorously defend itself against any unsettled claims relating to the Processing System Intrusion that have been asserted against it and its sponsor banks to date. The Company feels it has strong defenses to all the claims that have been asserted against it and its sponsor banks relating to the Processing System Intrusion. Additional costs the Company expects to incur for legal fees and costs for defending various claims and actions associated with the Processing System Intrusion will be recognized as incurred. Such costs, together with any amounts payable related to the unsettled claims, could be material and could adversely impact its results of operations, financial condition and cash flow.
Material Limitations Associated with the Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures- Non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP earnings per share that exclude the impact of the Provision for Processing System Intrusion may have limitations as analytical tools, and these non-GAAP measures should not be considered in isolation from or as a replacement for GAAP financial measures, and should be considered only as supplemental to the Company's GAAP financial measures. Some of the limitations associated with the use of these non-GAAP financial measures are:
• | Processing System Intrusion costs and expenses and recoveries that are excluded from non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP earnings per share can have a material impact on cash flows, GAAP net income and GAAP earnings per share. |
• | Other companies may calculate non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP earnings per share that exclude the impact of similar costs and expenses and recoveries differently than the Company does, limiting the usefulness of those measures for comparative purposes. |
Usefulness of Non-GAAP Financial Measures to Investors-The Company believes that presenting non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP earnings per share that exclude the impact of the Provision for Processing System Intrusion in addition to the related GAAP measures provides investors greater transparency to the information used by the Company's management for its financial and operational decision-making and allows investors to see the Company's results through the eyes of management. Additionally, the Company believes that the inclusion of these non-GAAP financial measures provides enhanced comparability in its financial reporting. The Company further believes that providing this information better enables its investors to understand the Company's operating performance and underlying business fundamentals, and to evaluate the methodology used by management to evaluate and measure such performance.
This press release contains non-GAAP financial measures within the meaning of Regulation G promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission. Pursuant to Regulation G, a reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures with the comparable financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 follows:
