This Quarterly Financial Supplement (“QFS”) includes historical and forward-looking non-GAAP measures called Adjusted EBITDA, cash earnings, cash earnings per diluted share, adjusted income before management fees and percentages or calculations using these measures.  The Company believes these non-GAAP measures provide additional meaningful methods of evaluating certain aspects of the Company’s operating performance from period to period on a basis that may not be otherwise apparent under GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income excluding income tax expense, interest income, interest expense, other, net, amortization of intangibles, depreciation, impairment of goodwill and intangible assets, (gain) loss on sale of subsidiaries, and any change in estimated contingent consideration amounts recorded in accordance with purchase accounting that have been subsequently adjusted and recorded in the consolidated statement of operations. Adjusted EBITDA should not be viewed as a substitute for net income. Cash earnings is defined as net income excluding amortization of intangibles, depreciation, the after-tax impact of the impairment of goodwill and intangible assets and the after-tax impact of non-cash interest expense. Cash earnings per diluted share is calculated by dividing cash earnings by the number of weighted average diluted shares outstanding for the period indicated.  Cash earnings and cash earnings per diluted share should not be viewed as substitutes for net income and net income per diluted share, respectively.  Adjusted income before management fees is defined as income before management fees excluding corporate income before management fees.  Adjusted income before management fees should not be viewed as a substitute for income from operations. A full reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures to their GAAP counterparts is provided in this QFS, which is available on the Investor Relations section of the Company’s Web site at www.nfp.com.
 
This QFS contains certain statements relating to future results, which are forward-looking statements as that term is defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements include, without limitation, any statement that may project, indicate or imply future results, events, performance or achievements, and may contain the words "anticipate," "expect," "intend," "plan," "believe," "estimate," "may," "project," "will," "continue" and similar expressions of a future or forward-looking nature. Forward-looking statements may include discussions concerning revenue, expenses, earnings, cash flow, impairments, losses, dividends, capital structure, credit facilities, market and industry conditions, premium and commission rates, interest rates, contingencies, the direction or outcome of regulatory investigations and litigation, income taxes and NFP's operations or strategy. These forward-looking statements are based on management's current views with respect to future results, and are subject to risks and uncertainties. Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those contemplated by a forward-looking statement include: (1) NFP’s ability, through its operating structure, to respond quickly to regulatory, operational or financial situations impacting its businesses; (2) the ability of the Company’s businesses to perform successfully following acquisition, including through cross-selling initiatives, and the Company’s ability to manage its business effectively and profitably through its reportable segments and the principals of its businesses; (3) any losses that NFP may take with respect to dispositions, restructures or otherwise; (4) an economic environment that results in fewer sales of financial products or services; (5) the occurrence of events or circumstances that could be indicators of impairment to goodwill and intangible assets which require the Company to test for impairment, and the impact of any impairments that the Company may take; (6) the impact of the adoption, modification or change in interpretation of certain accounting treatments or policies and changes in underlying assumptions relating to such treatments or policies, which may lead to adverse financial statement results; (7) NFP’s success in acquiring and retaining high-quality independent financial services businesses; (8) the financial impact of NFP’s incentive plans; (9) changes that adversely affect NFP’s ability to manage its indebtedness or capital structure, including changes in interest rates, credit market conditions and general economic factors; (10) securities and capital markets behavior, including fluctuations in the price of NFP’s common stock, continuing volatility in the U.S. financial markets, or the dilutive impact of any capital-raising efforts to finance operations or business strategy; (11) the continued availability of borrowings and letters of credit under NFP’s credit facility; (12) adverse results, market uncertainty in the financial services industry, or other consequences from litigation, arbitration, regulatory investigations or compliance initiatives, including those related to business practices, compensation agreements with insurance companies, policy rescissions or chargebacks, regulatory investigations or activities within the life settlements industry; (13) adverse developments in the markets in which the Company operates, resulting in fewer sales of financial products and services, including those related to compensation agreements with insurance companies and activities within the life settlements industry; (14) the impact of legislation or regulations in jurisdictions in which NFP’s subsidiaries operate, including the possible adoption of comprehensive and exclusive federal regulation over all interstate insurers and the uncertain impact of proposals for legislation regulating the financial services industry; (15) uncertainty regarding the impact of newly-adopted healthcare legislation or resulting changes in business practices of NFP’s subsidiaries that operate in the benefits market; (16) changes in laws, including the elimination or modification of the federal estate tax, changes in the tax treatment of life insurance products, or changes in regulations affecting the value or use of benefits programs, which may adversely affect the demand for or profitability of the Company’s services; (17) developments in the availability, pricing, design or underwriting of insurance products, revisions in mortality tables by life expectancy underwriters or changes in the Company’s relationships with insurance companies; (18) changes in premiums and commission rates or the rates of other fees paid to the Company’s businesses, including life settlements and registered investment advisory fees; (19) the reduction of the Company’s revenue and earnings due to the elimination or modification of compensation arrangements, including contingent compensation arrangements and the adoption of internal initiatives to enhance compensation transparency, including the transparency of fees paid for life settlements transactions; (20) the occurrence of adverse economic conditions or an adverse regulatory climate in New York, Florida or California; (21) the loss of services of key members of senior management; and (22) the Company’s ability to effect smooth succession planning.
 
Additional factors are set forth in NFP’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), including its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009, filed with the SEC on February 12, 2010 and its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2010, filed with the SEC on May 10, 2010.
 
Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date on which they are made. NFP expressly disclaims any obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

(1)  
For periods where the Company generated a GAAP net loss, weighted average common shares outstanding - diluted was used to calculate cash earnings per share - diluted only. To calculate GAAP net loss per share, weighted average common shares outstanding - diluted is the same as weighted average common shares outstanding - basic due to the antidilutive effects of other items caused by a GAAP net loss position.
(2)  
The sum of the per-share components of cash earnings per share - diluted may not agree to cash earnings per share - diluted due to rounding.

NATIONAL FINANCIAL PARTNERS CORP.
DEFINED TERMS
 
 
 
Adjusted EBITDA:
Net income excluding income tax expense, interest income, interest expense, other, net, amortization of intangibles, depreciation, impairment of goodwill and intangible assets, (gain) loss on sale of subsidiaries, and any change in estimated contingent consideration amounts recorded in accordance with purchase accounting that have been subsequently adjusted and recorded in the consolidated statement of operations.
   
Adjusted Income before Management Fees:
Income before management fees excluding corporate income before management fees.
   
Base Earnings of Acquired Firms:
Represents the cumulative preferred portion of Target Earnings of Acquired Firms that NFP capitalizes at the time of acquisition of a firm.
   
Basic Management Fees:
Represents the expense incurred for payments made or amounts owed to NFP principals and/or certain entities they own based on the financial performance of the firms they manage.  Basic management fees largely consist of: firm earnings in excess of base earnings up to target earnings, plus a portion of the earnings in excess of target earnings in accordance with the ratio of base earnings to target earnings.
   
Basic Management Fees Percentage:
Basic Management Fees as a percentage of gross margin before management fees.
   
Cash Earnings:
Net income excluding amortization of intangibles, depreciation, the after-tax impact of the impairment of goodwill and intangible assets and the after-tax impact of non-cash interest expense.
   
Cash Earnings per Share - Diluted:
Represents Cash Earnings divided by weighted average diluted shares outstanding.
   
Common Shares Issued for Acquisitions:
Represents the portion of consideration paid in the form of shares of NFP common stock for acquisitions closed during the period presented.
   
Common Shares Issued for Contingent Consideration and Escrow:
Represents the portion held in escrow or contingent consideration paid in the form of shares of NFP common stock during the period presented.
   
Common Shares Issued for Stock-Based Awards:
Represents the number of shares of NFP common stock issued under NFP's various Stock Incentive Plans during the period presented.
   
Common Shares Issued under Ongoing Incentive Program:
Represents the number of shares of NFP common stock issued under NFP's ongoing incentive program.
   
Common Shares Repurchased:
Represents shares of NFP common stock repurchased during the period, whether in an open market transaction or privately from a firm principal or other stockholder.
   
Corporate Income before Management Fees:
Includes revenue and expense allocations for corporate shared services and the Advisor Services Group, entities for which no management fees are paid. Since the Advisor Services Group is primarily comprised of NFPSI, an entity for which no management fees are paid, and earnings are not being shared with principals, all revenue and expenses from the Advisor Services Group are considered a component of Corporate Income before Management Fees.
   
Debt to Total Capitalization:
Calculated as debt outstanding at the end of the period divided by the sum of debt outstanding and total stockholders' equity at the end of the same period.
   
Incentive and Other Management Fees:
Largely represents the portion of management fees expense due to accruals for certain performance-based incentive amounts payable under NFP’s ongoing incentive plan, BIP plan (business incentive plan) and other management fee amounts due to principals.
   
Income before Management Fees:
The Company defines income before management fees as income from operations excluding management fees, amortization, depreciation, impairment of intangible assets and the (gain) loss on sale of subsidiaries.  Income before management fees is a metric management utilizes in its evaluation of the profitability of an NFP-owned business before principals receive participation in the earnings.
   
Intangible Assets - Book of Business:
A portion of the purchase price of acquisitions made by NFP is allocated to book of business.  The amount allocated to this component is largely determined by the amount of recurring revenue of the acquired firm.  The book of business is amortized on a straight-line basis over a ten-year period.

 
15

 
 
NATIONAL FINANCIAL PARTNERS CORP.
DEFINED TERMS
 
 
Intangible Assets - Goodwill:
The residual amount of the purchase price not allocated to book of business, management contracts and trade name is allocated to goodwill.  In accordance with GAAP, goodwill and intangible assets deemed to have indefinite lives are not amortized but are reviewed annually (or more frequently if impairment indicators arise) for impairment. Goodwill amortization after January 1, 2002 is entirely related to impairment losses or firms that NFP disposed.
   
Intangible Assets - Institutional Customer Relationships:
A portion of the purchase price of an acquisition made by NFP is allocated to institutional customer relationships.  The value of the asset is derived from recurring revenue generated from these institutional customers in place at the time of the acquisition, net of an allocation of expenses and is assumed to decrease over the life of the asset due to the attrition of the institutional relationships acquired.  Institutional customer relationships are amortized on a straight-line basis over an eighteen-year period.
   
Intangible Assets - Management Contracts:
A portion of the purchase price of acquisitions made by NFP is allocated to management contracts.  The amount allocated to this component is largely determined by the amount of non-recurring revenue of the acquired firm as well as an assumption for the lost production of the principal(s) of the firm at retirement.  The management contract is amortized on a straight-line basis over a twenty-five year period.
   
Intangible Assets - Trade Name:
NFP generally allocates approximately 1% of the purchase price of an acquisition to trade name, which is determined to have an indefinite life and, therefore, is not amortized.
   
Management Fees:
 
Represents the payments made to NFP principals and/or certain entities they own based on the financial performance of the firms they manage.  Management Fees include: Basic Management Fees, Principal Incentive Plan (PIP) Management Fees and Incentive and Other Management Fees.
   
Management Fees Percentage:
Management Fees as a percentage of adjusted income before management fees.
   
Organic Revenue Growth:
The Company refers to organic revenue in order to establish a comparable measurement (that will be associated with the revenue sources) that will continue in future periods. The Company excludes the first twelve months of revenue generated from new acquisitions and the revenue derived from businesses fully disposed of in each period presented.  With respect to Sub-Acquisitions, the Company establishes an internal revenue generation expectation (the “acquired revenue”) of a new Sub-Acquisition.  During the first twelve months immediately following the Sub-Acquisition, the Company reduces the acquired revenue amount from the actual revenue generated by the Sub-Acquisition and includes the revenue growth above or below acquired revenue within the organic growth percentage.  With respect to situations where a significant portion of a business' assets have been disposed, the Company reduces the prior year’s comparable revenue proportionally to the percentage of assets that have been disposed to facilitate an equitable organic growth comparison.
   
Principal Incentive Plan (PIP) Management Fees:
 
Represents the expense incurred due to accruals for certain performance-based incentive amounts payable under NFP’s Principal Incentive Plan (PIP).
   
Stock-based Compensation Management Fees:
Represents the portion of management fee expense for stock awards issued to NFP’s principals.
   
Sub-Acquisitions:
A transaction in which an existing NFP-owned business acquires a new entity or book of business.
   
Target Earnings of Acquired Firms:
 
Represents the target business’s annual earnings, before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, and adjusted for expenses that will not continue post-acquisition, such as compensation to former owners who become principals (“Target  EBITDA”).  The target business’s Target EBITDA is considered “target earnings,” typically two times “base earnings.”
