Thomson Reuters Reports Full-Year and Fourth-Quarter 2013 Results

NEW YORK, February 12, 2014 – Thomson Reuters (TSX / NYSE: TRI) today reported results for the full year and fourth quarter ended December 31, 2013. The company achieved its 2013 Outlook, and today provided a business outlook for 2014.1 Declines in earnings and profitability in both periods reflected previously announced charges (described below).

· Revenues grew 2% for the full year and 1% for the fourth quarter, before currency
· Including a $260 million charge in the fourth quarter, adjusted EBITDA was down 7% for the full year and down 32% for the fourth quarter
· Including a $275 million charge in the fourth quarter, underlying operating profit was down 15% for the full year and down 50% for the fourth quarter
· Full-year adjusted EPS was $1.54 vs. $1.89 in 2012 and fourth-quarter adjusted EPS was $0.21 vs. $0.54 in the prior-year period
· Excluding the fourth-quarter charges, adjusted EPS was $1.83 for the full year and $0.49 for the quarter
· The Board approved a $0.02 annual dividend increase to $1.32 per share; represents the 21st consecutive annual increase in the company’s dividend

“I am pleased that we were able to deliver on our full-year expectations, despite a tougher than expected external environment in the fourth quarter,” said James C. Smith, chief executive officer of Thomson Reuters.

“More importantly, we took significant strides to position the company to thrive in future years. Our transformation initiatives are taking hold, costs are coming out and innovation is coming forth. Specifically, the charge we announced for 2013-14 is just one necessary element of the changes we have put in place to enable us to drive growth across the enterprise,” said Mr. Smith.

“While the external headwinds were stronger than anticipated at year-end, particularly in Europe and the emerging markets, I am pleased with the progress we continued to make inside the company and with our customers. I am confident this progress will accelerate in 2014.”

Declines in IFRS operating profit and diluted EPS were due to previously announced charges and significantly higher prior-year gains related to divestitures, which were $829 million in 2012 versus $195 million in 2013. 2012 divestitures included the Healthcare business and 2013 divestitures included the Corporate Services business. Additionally, the company recorded $836 million in tax charges in 2013 related to the consolidation of its technology and content assets. The decline in cash flow from operations was principally due to a $500 million pension contribution in the fourth quarter of 2013.

Full-Year Business Segment Highlights
Unless otherwise noted, all revenue growth comparisons in this news release are before the impact of foreign currency as Thomson Reuters believes this provides the best basis to measure the performance of its business.

· EBITDA declined 14% due to lower organic revenue and fourth-quarter charges of $172 million. The margin was 21.9% compared to 24.9% in the prior year.
o Excluding fourth-quarter charges of $172 million, EBITDA declined 4% with a margin of 24.5%.
· Operating profit declined 25% due to lower organic revenue, fourth-quarter charges of $178 million and a $32 million increase in depreciation and amortization primarily from investments made in prior periods. The margin was 12.3% compared to 15.9% in the prior year.
o Excluding fourth-quarter charges of $178 million, operating profit declined 8% with a margin of 15.0%.

Investors
 
· Revenues were flat versus the prior year. Enterprise Content revenues increased 7% helping to offset declines in other portions of the Investors business.

Marketplaces

· Revenues increased 2% (down 3% organic). FXall was up 11%, reflecting strong growth in volumes and an increased user base. This was offset by a decline in FX revenues for the year in other Marketplaces businesses.

Governance, Risk & Compliance

· Revenues grew 14% (10% organic) to $247 million due to strong demand for regulatory and compliance products and services.

Legal

· Revenues increased 3% (down 1% organic). The decline in organic revenues was attributable to the continuing decline in US print revenues and a 10% decline in revenues from the Latin American business. Excluding US print, Legal revenues grew 5% (up slightly organic).

· Global businesses grew 14% (down 1% organic) driven by strong growth from Practical Law (formerly PLC) offset by a decline in Latin American revenues.
· US print revenues declined 6% as firms continued to reduce discretionary spending.
· EBITDA declined 4% due to fourth-quarter charges of $37 million as well as the decline in US print and Latin American revenues. The margin was 35.6% compared to 38.2% in the prior year due to the dilutive impact of the acquisition of PLC and the decline in US print and Latin American revenues.
o Excluding fourth-quarter charges of $37 million, EBITDA declined 1% with a margin of 36.7%.
· Operating profit was down 7% with a margin of 26.9% compared to 29.6% in the prior year. The decline in the margin reflected the same items that impacted EBITDA margin performance.

Tax & Accounting

· Revenues increased 9% (5% organic). Professional was up 10%, Corporate was up 17% (9% organic) and Knowledge Solutions was up 6% (3% organic). Government-related revenues declined 33% but were up 7% in the fourth-quarter as performance has begun to improve.
· EBITDA increased 7% primarily due to increased revenue with a margin of 30.4% compared to 30.3% in the prior year.
o Excluding fourth-quarter charges of $9 million, EBITDA increased 10% with a margin of 31.1%.
· Operating profit increased 8% with a margin of 20.7% compared to 20.5% in the prior year.

· Recurring subscription-related revenues decreased 2% (all organic) due to negative net sales in 2013. Transactions-related revenues increased 2% but were down 4% organically primarily due to lower market trading volumes in the foreign exchange and fixed income markets.

· Operating profit declined 72% primarily due to fourth-quarter charges of $178 million. The margin was 4.8% compared to 16.9% in the prior-year period.

Business Outlook (Before Currency)

Thomson Reuters today issued its business outlook for 2014. The company expects:

· revenues to be comparable to 2013;
· adjusted EBITDA margin to range between 26% and 27%;
· underlying operating profit margin to range between 17.0% and 18.0%; and
· free cash flow to range between $1.3 billion and $1.5 billion in 2014.

In October 2013, the company stated that it planned to take a charge of approximately $350 million, most of which would be reflected in fourth-quarter 2013 results, with a portion reflected in 2014. The aggregate amount of the charge is now expected to be approximately $395 million, $275 million of which was incurred in 2013. The company’s 2014 Outlook includes the impact of $120 million of charges expected to be incurred this year. The free cash flow Outlook for 2014 reflects the estimated impact of the charges incurred in 2013 and 2014 as well as the impact of the loss of free cash flow from disposals (approximately $375 million in aggregate). The information in this section is forward-looking and should be read in conjunction with the section below entitled “Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements, Material Assumptions and Material Risks.”

Dividend and Share Repurchases

The board of directors approved a $0.02 per share annualized increase in the dividend to $1.32 per share. A quarterly dividend of $0.33 per share is payable on March 17, 2014 to common shareholders of record as of February 24, 2014.

Approximately $300 million of these repurchases in the fourth quarter of 2013 were part of the company’s previously announced plans to repurchase up to $1 billion of its shares by the end of 2014.

NON-IFRS FINANCIAL MEASURES

Thomson Reuters prepares its financial statements in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB).

This news release includes certain non-IFRS financial measures. Thomson Reuters uses these non-IFRS financial measures as supplemental indicators of its operating performance and financial position. These measures do not have any standardized meanings prescribed by IFRS and therefore are unlikely to be comparable to the calculation of similar measures used by other companies, and should not be viewed as alternatives to measures of financial performance calculated in accordance with IFRS. Non-IFRS financial measures are defined and reconciled to the most directly comparable IFRS measures in the appended tables.

A business outlook is provided for the purpose of presenting information about current expectations for 2014. This information may not be appropriate for other purposes. You are cautioned not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements which reflect expectations only as of the date of this news release. Except as may be required by applicable law, Thomson Reuters disclaims any obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements.

The company's 2014 business outlook is based on various external and internal assumptions. Economic and market assumptions include, but are not limited to, GDP growth in the countries where Thomson Reuters operates.

Some of the material risk factors that could cause actual results or events to differ materially from those expressed in or implied by forward-looking statements in this news release include, but are not limited to, changes in the general economy; actions of competitors; failure to develop new products, services, applications and functionalities to meet customers' needs, attract new customers or expand into new geographic markets and identify areas of higher growth; increased accessibility to free or relatively inexpensive information sources; failures or disruptions of network systems or the Internet; failure to maintain a high renewal rate for subscription-based services; dependency on third parties for data, information and other services; changes to law and regulations, including the impact of the Dodd-Frank legislation and similar financial services laws around the world; failure to adapt to recent organizational changes; failure to recruit, motivate and retain high quality management and key employees; failure to meet the challenges involved in operating globally; failure to derive fully the anticipated benefits from existing or future acquisitions, joint ventures, investments or dispositions; failure to protect

(4) Thomson Reuters defines adjusted EBITDA as underlying operating profit excluding the related depreciation and amortization of computer software. Adjusted EBITDA margin is adjusted EBITDA expressed as a percentage of revenues from ongoing businesses.
(5) Underlying operating profit is operating profit from reportable segments and Corporate & Other (includes Reuters News). Underlying operating profit margin is the underlying operating profit expressed as a percentage of revenues from ongoing businesses.
(6) Adjusted earnings and adjusted earnings per share include dividends declared on preference shares and amortization of the tax charges associated with the consolidation of technology and content assets but exclude the pre-tax impacts of amortization of other identifiable intangible assets as well as the post-tax impacts of fair value adjustments, other operating (gains) and losses, certain impairment charges, the results of Other Businesses (see note (3) above), other finance (income) costs, Thomson Reuters share of post-tax (earnings) losses in equity method investments, discontinued operations and other items affecting comparability. Adjusted earnings per share is calculated using diluted weighted-average shares and does not represent actual earnings or loss per share attributable to shareholders.

Because Thomson Reuters reported a net loss from continuing operations under IFRS for the three months ended December 31, 2013, the weighted average number of common shares used for basic and diluted loss per share is the same, as the effect of stock options and other equity incentive awards would reduce the loss per share, and therefore be anti-dilutive. Since our non-IFRS measure “adjusted earnings” is a profit, potential common shares are included, as they lower adjusted EPS and are therefore dilutive.

The following table reconciles IFRS and non-IFRS common share information:

(7) Adjustment to reflect income taxes based on estimated full-year effective tax rate. Reported earnings or loss for interim periods reflect income taxes based on the estimated effective tax rates of each of the jurisdictions in which Thomson Reuters operates. The adjustment reallocates estimated full-year income taxes between interim periods, but has no effect on full-year income taxes.
(8) Reflects amortization of the tax charges associated with the consolidation of the ownership and management of technology and content assets. For the non-IFRS measure, the majority of the charges are amortized over seven years, the period over which the tax is expected to be paid.
(9) Free cash flow is net cash provided by operating activities less capital expenditures, other investing activities and dividends paid on the company’s preference shares. Other Businesses (see note (3) above) are also removed to arrive at free cash flow from ongoing businesses.

(1) In this appendix, the  following previously announced items are added back to the company’s 2013 actual non-IFRS results to facilitate comparison to our 2013 business outlook:
a. Fourth quarter charges of $260 million and $275 million, which impacted adjusted EBITDA and underlying operating profit, respectively;
b. Cash payments in 2013 associated with these charges which impacted free cash flow by $27 million; and
c. A $500 million pension contribution which impacted free cash flow.
(2) These and other non-IFRS financial measures are defined and reconciled to the most directly comparable IFRS measures in the tables appended to this news release. Additional information is provided in the explanatory footnotes on page 14.
(3) Based on 2013 actual non-IFRS results excluding the previously announced fourth-quarter charges and pension contribution.
