Summary of Results (GAAP and Non-GAAP)
(in millions, except per share amounts)
Note: Adjusted EBITDA, diluted adjusted EPS, and free cash flow are non-GAAP measures.Three Months Ended Nine Months Ended September 30, September 30, 2022 2021 Change 2022 2021 Change Revenues $ 745.3 $ 759.0 (1.8 )% $ 2,267.1 $ 2,232.6 1.5 % Net income attributable to Verisk 189.4 201.7 (6.1 ) 892.8 524.3 70.3 Adjusted EBITDA 383.5 378.8 1.2 1,123.6 1,095.1 2.6 Diluted EPS attributable to Verisk 1.20 1.24 (3.2 ) 5.59 3.21 74.1 Diluted adjusted EPS 1.46 1.44 1.4 4.33 3.85 12.5 Net cash provided by operating activities 280.2 285.2 (1.8 ) 810.0 967.1 (16.2 ) Free cash flow 214.4 223.8 (4.2 ) 615.0 784.0 (21.6 ) Revenues
Consolidated revenues decreased 1.8% and increased 4.8% on an OCC basis for the third quarter of 2022. The decline in our consolidated revenue was primarily due to the sale of our environmental health and safety business (3E) and Verisk Financial Services, partially offset by acquisitions. In addition, the suspension of all commercial operations in Russia negatively impacted revenue by $3.3 million in the third quarter of 2022. Normalizing for this, OCC revenue would have grown 5.3%.
Revenues and Revenue Growth by Segment
(in millions)
Note: OCC revenue growth is a non-GAAP measure.Revenue Growth Three Months Ended Three Months Ended September 30, September 30, 2022 2022 2021 Reported OCC Underwriting & rating $ 436.2 $ 390.5 11.7 % 6.5 % Claims 173.9 167.4 3.9 2.4 Insurance 610.1 557.9 9.4 5.3 Energy and Specialized Markets 135.2 165.9 (18.5 ) 2.5 Financial Services — 35.2 (100.0 ) - Revenues $ 745.3 $ 759.0 (1.8 ) 4.8 Revenue Growth Nine Months Ended Nine Months Ended September 30, September 30, 2022 2022 2021 Reported OCC Underwriting & rating $ 1,290.0 $ 1,156.0 11.6 % 6.7 % Claims 516.5 487.5 5.9 4.1 Insurance 1,806.5 1,643.5 9.9 5.9 Energy and Specialized Markets 423.0 484.4 (12.7 ) 1.8 Financial Services 37.6 104.7 (64.1 ) - Revenues $ 2,267.1 $ 2,232.6 1.5 5.1 Insurance segment revenues grew 9.4% in the third quarter and 5.3% on an OCC basis.
- Underwriting and rating revenues increased 11.7% in the quarter and 6.5% on an OCC basis, resulting primarily from annual increases in price derived from continued enhancements to the content of the solutions within our industry-standard insurance programs, as well as selling expanded solutions to existing customers in commercial and personal lines. In addition, extreme events solutions and life solutions contributed to the growth.
- Claims revenues grew 3.9% in the quarter and 2.4% on an OCC basis, resulting primarily from growth in our claims analytics solutions and modest growth in our repair cost estimation solutions, offset by a tough comparison to a more active storm season in the prior year.
Energy and Specialized Markets segment revenue decreased 18.5% in the quarter and increased 2.5% on an OCC basis. The decline in revenue was primarily due to the sale of the 3E business that closed on March 11, 2022 and the suspension of commercial operations in Russia. OCC growth was driven by growth in research revenue, offset in part by a decline in consulting revenue. Normalizing for the impact of suspended operations in Russia, Energy revenue would have grown 5.2% on an OCC basis.
There was no Financial Services segment revenue in the quarter as we closed the sale of Verisk Financial Services on April 8, 2022.
Net Income Attributable to Verisk and Adjusted EBITDA
During third-quarter 2022, net income attributable to Verisk decreased 6.1%. The decrease was primarily driven by lower revenues as a result of dispositions, a loss incurred as part of true up of the normal closing adjustments related to the dispositions of 3E and Verisk Financial Services, and higher interest expense. Adjusted EBITDA increased 1.2%, and 6.0% on an OCC basis. During the quarter, we incurred incremental expense of $0.2 million related to the suspension of all commercial operations in Russia. Adjusted for this impact, OCC adjusted EBITDA growth was 7.0%.
EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA by Segment
(in millions)
Note: Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP measure. Margin is calculated as a percentage of revenues. See "Non-GAAP Reconciliations" below for a reconciliation to the nearest GAAP measure. All OCC figures exclude results from recent dispositions namely, 3E and Verisk Financial Services. Segment-level adjusted EBITDA margins for 2022 reflect a higher level of corporate allocations resulting from recent dispositions and the impact of foreign currency fluctuations.Three Months Ended September 30, EBITDA EBITDA Margin Adjusted EBITDA Adjusted EBITDA Growth Adjusted EBITDA Margin 2022 2022 2022 2021 2022 2021 2022 2021 Reported OCC 2022 2021 Insurance $ 329.3 $ 311.5 54.0 % 55.8 % $ 337.0 $ 311.6 8.2 % 6.9 % 55.2 % 55.9 % Energy and Specialized Markets 40.1 60.5 29.6 36.5 46.5 60.5 (23.1 ) (0.2 ) 34.4 36.5 Financial Services (1.4 ) 6.7 - 19.0 0.0 6.7 (100.0 ) - 0.0 19 Consolidated $ 368.0 $ 378.7 49.4 49.9 $ 383.5 $ 378.8 1.2 6.0 51.5 49.9 Nine Months Ended September 30, EBITDA EBITDA Margin Adjusted EBITDA Adjusted EBITDA Growth Adjusted EBITDA Margin 2022 2022 2022 2021 2022 2021 2022 2021 Reported OCC 2022 2021 Insurance $ 965.5 $ 911.2 53.4 % 55.4 % $ 973.2 $ 911.3 6.8 % 6.2 % 53.9 % 55.4 % Energy and Specialized Markets 589.1 171.8 139.3 35.5 143.9 171.8 (16.3 ) (3.8 ) 34.0 35.5 Financial Services (86.8 ) 12.0 (230.8 ) 11.4 6.5 12.0 (45.3 ) - 17.4 11.4 Consolidated $ 1,467.8 $ 1,095.0 64.7 49.0 $ 1,123.6 $ 1,095.1 2.6 4.8 49.6 49.1 Earnings Per Share and Diluted Adjusted Earnings Per Share
Diluted EPS attributable to Verisk decreased 3.2% to $1.20 for the third quarter of 2022 due to the impact of the dispositions of 3E and Verisk Financial Services, including a loss incurred as part of a true-up of the normal closing adjustments, an adjustment to our acquisitions-related cost (earn-outs), and increased interest expense. This was partially offset by growth in our Insurance segment and a lower average share count.
Diluted adjusted EPS increased 1.4% to $1.46 for the third quarter of 2022 primarily due to growth in our Insurance segment and a lower average share count, partially offset by the impact of the dispositions of 3E and Verisk Financial Services, increased interest expense, and the suspension of all commercial operations in Russia.
Cash Flow and Free Cash Flow
Net cash provided by operating activities was $280.2 million for the third quarter of 2022, down 1.8% and free cash flow was $214.4 million, down 4.2%. Both cash flow measures were negatively affected by the dispositions of 3E and Verisk Financial Services. Free cash flow is a non-GAAP measure. See "Non-GAAP reconciliations" below for a reconciliation to the nearest GAAP measure.
Dividend
On September 30, 2022, we paid a cash dividend of 31 cents per share of common stock issued and outstanding to the holders of record as of September 15, 2022.
On October 26, 2022, our Board of Directors approved a cash dividend of 31 cents per share of common stock issued and outstanding, payable on December 30, 2022, to holders of record as of December 15, 2022.
Share Repurchases
Including the accelerated share repurchase (ASR) settled in the third quarter of 2022, we repurchased approximately 1.6 million shares at an average price of $187.08, for a total cost of $300 million for the third quarter of 2022. As of September 30, 2022, we had $407.5 million remaining under our share repurchase authorization.

Alberto.Canal@verisk.comForward-Looking Statements
This release contains forward-looking statements. These statements relate to future events or to future financial performance and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties, and other factors that may cause our actual results, levels of activity, performance, or achievements to be materially different from any future results, levels of activity, performance, or achievements expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. This includes, but is not limited to, our expectation and ability to pay a cash dividend on our common stock in the future, subject to the determination by our Board of Directors and based on an evaluation of our earnings, financial condition and requirements, business conditions, capital allocation determinations, and other factors, risks, and uncertainties. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by the use of words such as “may,” “could,” “expect,” “intend,” “plan,” “target,” “seek,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “predict,” “potential,” or “continue” or the negative of these terms or other comparable terminology. You should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements, because they involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties, and other factors that are, in some cases, beyond our control and that could materially affect actual results, levels of activity, performance.
Other factors that could materially affect actual results, levels of activity, performance, or achievements can be found in our quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, annual reports on Form 10-K, and current reports on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. If any of these risks or uncertainties materialize or if our underlying assumptions prove to be incorrect, actual results may vary significantly from what we projected. Any forward-looking statement in this release reflects our current views with respect to future events and is subject to these and other risks, uncertainties, and assumptions relating to our operations, results of operations, growth strategy, and liquidity. We assume no obligation to publicly update or revise these forward-looking statements for any reason, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise.
Notes Regarding the Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
We have provided certain non-GAAP financial information as supplemental information regarding our operating results. These measures are not in accordance with, or an alternative for, U.S. GAAP and may be different from non-GAAP measures reported by other companies. We believe that our presentation of non-GAAP measures provides useful information to management and investors regarding certain financial and business trends relating to our financial condition and results of operations. In addition, our management uses these measures for reviewing our financial results, for budgeting and planning purposes, and for evaluating the performance of senior management.
EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, and Adjusted EBITDA Expenses: EBITDA represents GAAP net income adjusted for (i) depreciation and amortization of fixed assets; (ii) amortization of intangible assets; (iii) interest expense; and (iv) provision for income taxes. Adjusted EBITDA represents EBITDA adjusted for acquisition-related costs (earn-outs), gain/loss from dispositions (which includes businesses held for sale), and nonrecurring gain/loss. Adjusted EBITDA expenses represent adjusted EBITDA net of revenues. We believe these measures are useful and meaningful because they help us allocate resources, make business decisions, allow for greater transparency regarding our operating performance, and facilitate period-to-period comparison.
Adjusted Net Income and Diluted Adjusted EPS: Adjusted net income represents GAAP net income adjusted for (i) amortization of intangible assets, net of tax; (ii) acquisition-related costs (earn-outs), net of tax; (iii) gain/loss from dispositions (which includes businesses held for sale), net of tax; and (iv) nonrecurring gain/loss, net of tax. Diluted adjusted EPS represents adjusted net income divided by weighted-average diluted shares. We believe these measures are useful and meaningful because they allow evaluation of the after-tax profitability of our results excluding the after-tax effect of acquisition-related costs and nonrecurring items.
Free Cash Flow: Free cash flow represents net cash provided by operating activities determined in accordance with GAAP minus payments for capital expenditures. We believe free cash flow is an important measure of the recurring cash generated by our operations that may be available to repay debt obligations, repurchase our stock, invest in future growth through new business development activities, or make acquisitions.
Organic: Organic is defined as operating results excluding the effect of recent acquisitions and dispositions (which include businesses held for sale) that have occurred over the past year. An acquisition is included as organic at the beginning of the calendar quarter that occurs subsequent to the one-year anniversary of the acquisition date. Once an acquisition is included in its current-period organic base, its comparable prior-year-period operating results are also included to calculate organic growth. A disposition (which includes a business held for sale) is excluded from organic at the beginning of the calendar quarter in which the disposition occurs (or when a business meets the held-for-sale criteria under U.S. GAAP). Once a disposition is excluded from its current-period organic base, its comparable prior-year-period operating results are also excluded to calculate organic growth. We believe the organic presentation enables investors to assess the growth of the business without the impact of recent acquisitions for which there is no prior-year comparison and the impact of recent dispositions, for which results are removed from all prior periods presented to allow for comparability.
Organic Constant Currency (OCC) Growth Rate: Our operating results, such as, but not limited to, revenue and adjusted EBITDA, reported in U.S. dollars are affected by foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations because the underlying foreign currencies in which we transact changes in value over time compared with the U.S. dollar; accordingly, we present certain constant currency financial information to assess how we performed excluding the impact of foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations. We calculate constant currency by translating comparable prior-year-period results at the currency exchange rates used in the current period. We believe organic constant currency is a useful and meaningful measure to enhance investors’ understanding of the continuing operating performance of our business and to facilitate the comparison of period-to-period performance because it excludes the impact of foreign exchange rate movements, acquisitions, and dispositions.
