CINCINNATI  -  February  20, 2013 -  Vantiv, 
Inc. (NYSE: VNTV) (Vantiv or "the Company") today announced financial results for the fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2012.  Revenue increased 13% to $494.1 million in the fourth quarter as compared to $439.0 million in the prior year period.  Net revenue increased 12% to $271.2 million in the fourth quarter as compared to $242.7 million in the prior year period.  On a GAAP basis, net income attributable to Vantiv, Inc. was $28.8 million during the fourth quarter, or $0.22 per diluted share, compared with $15.7 million, or $0.18 per diluted share, in the prior year period.  Cash net income increased 39% in the fourth quarter to $81.6 million as compared to $58.5 million in the prior year period. Adjusted cash net income per share was $0.38 for the fourth quarter.  (See Schedule 2 for cash net income and Schedules 6 and 7 for GAAP net income reconciliation to cash net income.) For the full year, revenue increased 15% to $1,863.2 million as compared to $1,622.4 million in the prior year.  Net revenue increased 18% to $1,022.6 million in 2012 as compared to $865.7 million in the prior year.  On a GAAP basis, net income attributable to Vantiv, Inc. in 2012 was $57.6 million, or $0.47 per diluted share, compared with $36.2 million, or $0.40 per diluted share, in the prior year.  Cash net income increased 41% in 2012 to $260.0 million as compared to $184.1 million in the prior year. Adjusted cash net income per share was $1.22 for the full year 2012.  (See Schedule 2 for cash net income and Schedules 6 and 7 for GAAP net income reconciliation to cash net income.) Transaction growth was 20% and 19% for the fourth quarter and full year, respectively, primarily due to superior transaction growth in the Merchant Services segment of 23% and 24% for the fourth quarter and full year, respectively.  The Financial Institutions Services segment also experienced strong transaction growth with a 7% and 3% increase for the fourth quarter and full year, respectively. Vantiv's scale and efficiency continued to support superior profitability as reflected by the Company's fourth quarter adjusted EBITDA margin of 53%.  For the full year, Vantiv's adjusted EBITDA margin was 50%.  (See Schedules 6 and 7 for GAAP net income reconciliation to cash net income and Schedule 8 for reconciliation from GAAP income from operations to adjusted EBITDA.) With respect to cash net income, income tax expense was reduced by the recognition of tax benefits attributable to the amortization of intangibles and other tax attributes associated with acquisitions, including Litle, and to the tax basis step up associated with our separation from Fifth Third Bank and the subsequent purchase or exchange of Class B units of Vantiv Holding.  This tax benefit is recurring and is expected to reduce income tax expense with respect to cash net income by approximately $4.0 million each quarter in 2013 and beyond. "Our fourth quarter results cap an outstanding first year for Vantiv as a public company," said Charles Drucker, president and chief executive officer at Vantiv. "Our strong financial performance is a testament to our dedicated employees, our commitment to execution, and our focus on our clients.  Our strategy to generate superior growth and profitability by broadening and deepening our distribution channels, expanding into high growth markets, and increasing our small to mid- sized client base is working, and I expect to continue to deliver double-digit growth in 2013 and beyond." Merchant Services Net revenue increased 12% to $188.4 million in the fourth quarter as compared to $167.5 million in the prior year period, primarily due to a 23% increase in transactions.  On a full year basis, net revenue increased 24% to $699.8 million, primarily due to a 24% increase in transactions.  Net revenue grew at a lower rate in the fourth quarter as compared to the full year due primarily to the impact of the debit interchange legislation in the Durbin Amendment in the fourth quarter of 2011.  Consistent with the prior two quarters, net revenue per transaction declined as compared to the prior year period due principally to the addition of a large national processing contract in the second quarter.  Sales and marketing expenses increased 6% in the fourth quarter to $62.5 million and by 21% for the full year to $255.9 million. Financial Institution Services Net revenue increased 10% to $82.8 million in the fourth quarter as compared to $75.2 million in the prior year period, primarily due to a 7% increase in transactions and growth in value added services revenue.  On a full year basis, net revenue increased 7% to $322.8 million, primarily due to a 3% increase in transactions and growth in value added services revenue.  Sales and marketing expenses increased by 4% in the fourth quarter to $5.6 million and by 3% for the full year to $24.8 million. 2013 Financial Outlook "The results we achieved in 2012 along with continued expectations for strong growth in our core business as well as expansion into ecommerce gives us confidence in our growth as we enter 2013," said Mark Heimbouch, chief financial officer.  "In 2013, we expect to generate net revenue of $1.21 to $1.23 billion, which represents growth of approximately 18% to 20%, and adjusted cash net income per share of $1.46 to $1.50, which represents growth of 20% to 23%.  On a GAAP basis, we expect to generate earnings per share of $0.60 to $0.63 in 2013."

Non-GAAP Financial Measures This earnings release presents non-GAAP financial information including net revenue, adjusted EBITDA, cash net income, and adjusted cash net income per share information.  These are important financial performance measures for the Company, but are not financial measures as defined by GAAP.  The presentation of this financial information is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to, the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP.  The Company uses these non-GAAP financial measures for financial and operational decision making and as a means to evaluate period-to- period comparisons. The Company believes that they provide useful information about operating results, enhance the overall understanding of past financial performance and future prospects, and allow for greater transparency with respect to key metrics used by management in its financial and operational decision making.  Reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are presented in the attached schedules. Net revenue is revenue, less network fees and other costs. Cash net income includes adjustments to exclude amortization of intangible assets acquired in business combinations and customer portfolio and related asset acquisitions, share-based compensation, transition costs associated with our separation from Fifth Third Bank, integration costs incurred in connection with acquisitions, cash tax adjustments, and conversion of non-controlling interests into shares of Class A common stock. For purposes of providing better comparability we also made adjustments to interest expense and depreciation in 2011. (See Schedule 6 and 7 for a reconciliation from GAAP net income to cash net income.)

They depend upon future events and are subject to risks, uncertainties (many of which are beyond our control) and assumptions. Although we believe that these forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions, you should be aware that many factors could affect our actual future performance or results and cause them to differ materially from those anticipated in the forward-looking statements.

Cash net income is derived from GAAP net income, adjusting for the following items: (a) amortization of intangible assets acquired in business combinations and customer portfolio and related asset acquisitions; (b) non-operating expenses primarily associated with the refinancing of our debt and the termination of our interest rate swaps in March 2012 and May 2011; (c) adjustments to income tax expense assuming conversion of non-controlling interests into shares of Class A common stock; (d) share-based compensation; (e) costs associated with our separation from Fifth Third Bank and acquisition and integration costs incurred in connection with our acquisitions; and (f) tax benefits due to the amortization of intangible assets and other tax attributes resulting from or acquired with our acquisitions, including Litle, and to the tax basis step up associated with our separation from Fifth Third Bank and the purchase or exchange of Class B units of Vantiv Holding, net of payment obligations under tax receivable agreements established at the time of our initial public offering. For purposes of providing better comparability, we also make adjustments in 2011 to reflect depreciation and amortization assuming that our property and equipment at December 31, 2011 was in place on January 1, 2011 and for interest expense assuming the Company's level of debt and applicable terms as of December 31, 2011 was outstanding on January 1, 2011. ---- (1) See schedule 8 for a reconciliation of GAAP income from operations to adjusted EBITDA. (2) Represents adjustments to income tax expense assuming conversion of non- controlling interests into shares of Class A common stock, including the tax effect of adjustments described above. (3) Represents tax benefits due to the amortization of intangible assets and other tax attributes resulting from or acquired with our acquisitions, including Litle, and to the tax basis step up associated with our separation from Fifth Third Bank and the purchase or exchange of Class B units of Vantiv Holding, net of payment obligations under tax receivable agreements established at the time of our initial public offering. (4) Cash net income assumes the conversion of non-controlling interests into shares of Class A common stock. (5) Adjusted cash net income per share is calculated as cash net income divided by adjusted shares outstanding. (6) Shares for the twelve months ended December 31, 2012 are pro forma and weighted assuming the equity structure in place March 31, 2012, was in place January 1, 2012.  The quarter to date and year to date adjusted shares outstanding include 80,940,875 Class B units that are excluded from the GAAP dilutive income per share calculation.
