NYSE Euronext Announces Third Quarter 2012 Financial Results
Loss from associates is primarily related to New York Portfolio Clearing. Net (income) loss attributable to noncontrolling interest consists primarily of net income attributable to NYSE Amex Options which was partially offset by the net loss attributable to NYSE Liffe U.S.
Based on current projections for profits and changes to UK tax rates, we now expect our non-GAAP effective tax rate to be 24% for the full-year 2012. In the third quarter of 2012, the 21% effective tax rate reflects a tax rate true-up to adjust the year-to-date tax rate to 24% from 25%, which added $0.02 to third quarter 2012 diluted earnings per share.
The weighted average diluted shares outstanding in the third quarter of 2012 was 247 million, down from 263 million in third quarter of 2011. During the third quarter of 2012, a total of 4.7 million shares were repurchased at an average price of $25.46 per share and year-to-date a total of 15.9 million shares have been repurchased at an average price of $26.66. The current repurchase authorization had $128 million remaining as of September 30, 2012.
At September 30, 2012, total debt was $2.5 billion. Cash, cash equivalents and short term financial investments (including $24 million related to Section 31 fees collected from market participants and due to the SEC) were $0.4 billion and net debt was $2.1 billion at the end of the third quarter of 2012. The ratio of debt-to-EBITDA at the end of the third quarter of 2012 was 2.4.
On October 5, 2012 NYSE Euronext closed on the public offering of $850 million 2.00% notes due in October 2017. The proceeds from this offering were used to fund the purchase of $336 million of our outstanding $750 million 4.80% notes due in June 2013 and €80 million of our €1 billion 5.375% notes due in June 2015 and for other general corporate purposes, including the reduction in outstanding commercial paper. The refinancing is expected to save an annualized $15 million and $24 million in interest expense in 2013 and 2014, respectively.Select the service that is right for you!
