ALTISOURCE ANNOUNCES SECOND QUARTER RESULTS

 

Luxembourg, Luxembourg, 26 July 2012

 

Altisource™ (NASDAQ: ASPS) today reported net income attributable to Altisource of $28.1 million or $1.13 per diluted share for the three months ended June 30, 2012, an increase in net income and diluted earnings per share from the three months ended June 30, 2011 of 110% and 117%, respectively.  This compares with net income attributable to Altisource of $13.4 million or $0.52 per diluted share for the three months ended June 30, 2011. Service revenue was $118.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2012, a 63% increase when compared to the three months ended June 30, 2011.

 

The increase in net income is primarily from stronger service revenue growth in the higher margin Mortgage Services segment relative to the other segments.  This was driven by the servicing portfolio growth experienced by the Company’s largest customer, Ocwen Financial Corporation (“Ocwen”) and expanded capture rate of Ocwen’s default related business.

 

Second quarter highlights include:

 

·                  Average loans serviced by Ocwen, on the REALServicing® platform were 0.7 million for the quarter

 

·                  Cash flows from operations for the quarter were $26.3 million representing $0.22 for every dollar of service revenue

 

·                  Over 7,000 REO assets were sold through the Company’s web based portal during the quarter

 

·                  Origination related service revenue increased 73% to $8.3 million in the quarter compared to the second quarter of 2011

 

Gross profit as a percentage of service revenue improved to 44% for the three months ended June 30, 2012 compared to 42% for the three months ended June 30, 2011.  The increase is primarily from the higher level of service revenue growth in the higher margin Mortgage Services segment relative to the other segments.

 

Income from operations as a percentage of service revenue improved to 27% for the three months ended June 30, 2012 compared to 22% for the three months ended June 30, 2011.  In addition to the gross profit margin expansion, operating income margin also improved from the stabilization of selling, general and administrative expenses on higher service revenue.
