WINDSOR, Conn., Aug. 3, 2011 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- SS&C Technologies Holdings, Inc. (Nasdaq:SSNC), a global provider of investment and financial software-enabled services and software, today announced its financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2011.
"I am pleased to report that our second quarter revenue of $91.8 million rose 12.5 percent year-over-year," said Bill Stone, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, SS&C Technologies Holdings, Inc. "For the six months ended June 30, 2011, we had strong cash flow from operations of $41.1 million, up 75 percent from $23.4 million for the same period in 2010."
Results
The Company reported quarterly revenue of $91.8 million for the second quarter of 2011, compared to $81.6 million in the second quarter of 2010, an increase of 12.5 percent.
GAAP operating income for the second quarter of 2011 was $22.9 million, or 24.9 percent of revenue. This represents a 15.7 percent increase compared to GAAP operating income of 19.8 million and 24.2 percent of revenue in the second quarter of 2010. GAAP net income for the second quarter of 2011 was $13.0 million compared to $4.4 million in the second quarter of 2010, an increase of 199 percent.
On a fully diluted GAAP basis, earnings per diluted share in the second quarter of 2011 were up 167 percent to $0.16 compared with $0.06 in the second quarter of 2010.
Adjusted operating income (a non-GAAP measure defined in note 2 to the attached Condensed Consolidated Financial Information) in the second quarter of 2011 was $35.8 million, or 39.0 percent of adjusted revenue. This represents a 10.7 percent increase compared to adjusted operating income of $32.4 million and 39.6 percent of adjusted revenue in the second quarter of 2010.
Adjusted net income (a non-GAAP measure defined in note 4 to the attached Condensed Consolidated Financial Information) for the second quarter of 2011 was $21.3 million compared to $16.2 million in 2010's second quarter, a 31.8 percent increase.
Adjusted diluted earnings per share (a non-GAAP measure defined in note 4 to the attached Condensed Consolidated Financial Information) in the second quarter of 2011 were $0.26 compared to $0.22 in the second quarter of 2010, an increase of 18 percent.
Annual Run Rate Basis
Annual Run Rate Basis (ARRB) recurring revenue, defined as the addition of maintenance and software-enabled services revenue, was $81.0 million for the second quarter of 2011, an annual run-rate of $323.8 million. This represents an increase of 14.9 percent from $70.4 million and $281.8 million run-rate in the same period in 2010 and an increase of 4.9 percent from Q1 2011's $77.2 million and $308.7 million run-rate. We believe ARRB of our recurring revenue is a good indicator of visibility into future revenue.
Operating Cash Flow
SS&C ended the quarter with $82.6 million in cash and cash equivalents, and $203.7 million in debt for a net debt balance of $121.1 million. We generated net cash from operating activities of $41.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011, compared to $23.4 million for the same period in 2010.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Information
Note 1. Reconciliation of Revenue to Adjusted Revenue
Adjusted revenue represents revenue adjusted for one-time purchase accounting adjustments to fair value deferred revenue acquired in business combinations. Adjusted revenue is presented because we use this measure to evaluate performance of our business against prior periods and believe it is a useful indicator of the underlying performance of the Company. Adjusted revenue is not a recognized term under generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). Adjusted revenue does not represent revenue, as that term is defined under GAAP, and should not be considered as an alternative to revenue as an indicator of our operating performance. Adjusted revenue as presented herein is not necessarily comparable to similarly titled measures. The following is a reconciliation between adjusted revenue and revenue, the GAAP measure we believe to be most directly comparable to adjusted revenue.

Note 2. Reconciliation of Operating Income to Adjusted Operating Income
Adjusted operating income represents operating income adjusted for amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets and purchase accounting adjustments for deferred revenue and other expenses. Adjusted operating income is presented because we use this measure to evaluate performance of our business and believe it is a useful indicator of the underlying performance of the Company. Adjusted operating income is not a recognized term under GAAP. Adjusted operating income does not represent operating income, as that term is defined under GAAP, and should not be considered as an alternative to operating income as an indicator of our operating performance.

Note 3. Reconciliation of Net Income to EBITDA, Consolidated EBITDA and Adjusted Consolidated EBITDA
EBITDA represents net income before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization. Consolidated EBITDA, defined under our Credit Agreement entered into in November 2005, is used in calculating covenant compliance, and is EBITDA adjusted for certain items. Consolidated EBITDA is calculated by subtracting from or adding to EBITDA items of income or expense described below. Adjusted consolidated EBITDA is calculated by subtracting acquired EBITDA from consolidated EBITDA. EBITDA, consolidated EBITDA and adjusted consolidated EBITDA are presented because we use these measures to evaluate performance of our business and believe them to be useful indicators of an entity's debt capacity and its ability to service debt. EBITDA, consolidated EBITDA and adjusted consolidated EBITDA are not recognized terms under GAAP and should not be considered in isolation or as alternatives to operating income, net income or cash flows from operating activities. EBITDA, consolidated EBITDA and adjusted consolidated EBITDA do not represent net income, as that term is defined under GAAP, and should not be considered as alternatives to net income as an indicator of our operating performance. The following is a reconciliation between EBITDA, consolidated EBITDA and adjusted consolidated EBITDA and net income.

Note 4. Reconciliation of Net Income to Adjusted Net Income and Diluted Earnings Per Share to Adjusted Diluted Earnings Per Share
Adjusted net income and adjusted diluted earnings per share represent net income and earnings per share before amortization of intangible assets and deferred financing costs, stock-based compensation, capital-based taxes and other unusual and non-recurring items. Adjusted net income and adjusted diluted earnings per share are not recognized terms under GAAP, do not represent net income or diluted earnings per share, as those terms are defined under GAAP, and should not be considered as alternatives to net income or diluted earnings per share as indicators of our operating performance. Adjusted net income and adjusted diluted earnings per share are important to management and investors because they represent our operational performance exclusive of the effects of amortization of intangible assets and deferred financing costs, stock-based compensation, capital-based taxes and other unusual and non-recurring items that are not operational in nature or comparable to those of our competitors. The following is a reconciliation between adjusted net income and adjusted diluted earnings per share and net income and diluted earnings per share.
