Item 2.02. | Results of Operations and Financial Condition. |
On January 24, 2008, Metavante Technologies, Inc. (Metavante) issued a press release announcing its results of operations and financial condition for the fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2007. A copy of the press release is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
Item 2.06. | Material Impairments. |
On January 22, 2008, Metavante determined that charges were necessary to reflect the impairment of goodwill and certain long-lived assets in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Accordingly, Metavante recorded a charge of $129.5 million for the period ending December 31, 2007.
Metavante performed a goodwill impairment test in the fourth quarter due to its recently completed separation from Marshall & Ilsley Corporation and an adverse change in the business climate for the Image Solutions Division (Image) reporting unit, and determined the goodwill as well as certain long-lived assets of Image were impaired. This conclusion was reached based on the results of an updated long-term financial outlook for Image. The financial outlook for Image was reduced due to an underperformance of license sales in the second half of 2007, a lowering of Images financial forecasts for 2008 as part of the recently completed annual planning cycle, and an expectation that spending could be constrained by Metavantes customers due to the current difficult environment faced by financial institutions. After evaluating the foregoing and its impact on the fair value of Image, Metavante recorded a reduction of $101.1 million in the carrying value of goodwill and $14.6 million in other long-lived assets related to Image.
The remaining impairment charges relate to other long-lived assets and consist of the following: a charge of $6.8 million for a customer relationship intangible asset recorded in connection with the GHR Systems, Inc. business unit due to lower than expected volumes in the mortgage industry and a charge of $7.0 million relating primarily to capitalized software costs for certain products where Metavante discontinued future marketing efforts on those products.

Special Items
In the fourth quarter, Metavante recorded $129.5 million ($111.5 million after tax) of non-cash impairment charges, of which $101.1 million was recorded as a reduction to the carrying amount of goodwill and $28.4 million was recorded as a reduction to the carrying amount of other long-lived assets. All of the goodwill impairment and $14.6 million of the other long-lived asset impairments related to the Image Solutions Division and resulted from updated expectations for long-term financial performance of that business. The remaining $13.8 million of charges related to long-lived assets of four other businesses.
The results for the fourth quarter also include net transaction-related costs of $24.7 million ($15.5 million after tax) and incremental interest of $15.9 million ($9.9 million after tax) related to the separation from Marshall & Ilsley Corporation on November 1.
Outlook
Commenting on the outlook, Martire added, We expect 2008 to be another year of solid revenue growth, enhanced profitability, and strong cash generation. While we recognize the risks of further spending constraints at our bank clients and fewer consumer payment transactions, we remain cautiously optimistic. The combination of a high percentage of recurring revenue, a diverse product and service offering, and proven cost discipline should allow us to modestly increase both our organic revenue growth rate and our profit
- 6 -
margins in 2008. We also plan to dedicate significant effort and resources during the year to initiatives that will enable more rapid growth in 2009 including new technologies and capabilities, and targeted acquisitions similar to those announced this month that will catalyze growth.
The companys guidance for 2008 is summarized as follows:
Organic revenue growth | 4% to 6% | |
Diluted earnings per share | $1.12 to $1.16 per share | |
Diluted cash earnings per share | $1.33 to $1.37 per share |

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Earnings before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (EBITDA) and Adjusted EBITDA
Metavantes management believes that EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA are useful for evaluating performance against peer companies within its industry, as well as providing investors additional transparency to a financial measure used by management in its financial and operational decision-making. In addition, Metavante utilizes EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA in its evaluation and determination of the price of potential acquisition candidates, and to explain trends in its operating performance and believes it provides useful information about its ability to incur and service indebtedness. Also, EBITDA is included in the financial covenants applicable to Metavantes credit facilities. EBITDA, as defined in the financial covenants, also excludes certain non-cash charges, such as impairment charges and stock option expense.
Adjusted EBITDA is defined as EBITDA excluding costs related to the separation from Marshall & Ilsley Corporation and impairment charges recorded in the fourth quarter of 2007. Metavantes definition of EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA may be different from definitions used by other companies.
The following is a reconciliation of net income to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA (in thousands):

Metavantes management defines adjusted net income as net income excluding costs related to the separation from Marshall & Ilsley Corporation and impairment charges recorded in the fourth quarter of 2007. Metavantes management believes that adjusted net income is meaningful to investors because it is a better indicator of the ongoing operating performance of Metavantes business.

Cash Net Income and Adjusted Cash Net Income
Metavante management defines cash net income as net income before (1) stock-based compensation expense, net of tax, and (2) the amortization of intangible assets resulting from business acquisitions, net of tax. Adjusted cash net income excludes the items described above as well as the costs related to the separation from Marshall & Ilsley Corporation and the impairment charges recorded in the fourth quarter of 2007. Metavantes management uses cash net income and adjusted cash net income to assess business performance and believes that it is useful for evaluating performance against peer companies within its industry, as well as providing investors additional transparency to a financial measure used by management in its financial and operational decision- making. Metavantes definition of cash net income and adjusted cash net income may differ from definitions used by other companies.
The following is a reconciliation of net income to cash net income and adjusted cash net income (in thousands):
