Strong Fourth Quarter Results Lead to 2007 Earnings Guidance of $2.86 to $2.94 per Share
Company Announces a New Ten Million Share Repurchase Authorization
Brookfield, Wis., Jan. 31, 2007Fiserv, Inc. (Nasdaq: FISV), a leading provider of information management systems and services, today reported financial results for the fourth quarter and full year 2006. Total revenues increased 11% to $1.2 billion for the fourth quarter and were up 12% to $4.5 billion for the full year 2006.
Earnings per share for the fourth quarter and full year were $0.61 and $2.53, respectively, for 2006, and were $0.81 and $2.70, respectively, for 2005.

In addition, we made progress against our long-term strategic priorities, which will better position us to increase value, opportunity and growth for our stakeholders, Yabuki added. As the client-centric initiatives of Fiserv 2.0 take hold, we will begin to realize the incremental growth and stronger financial performance that underpin our long-term plans.
BOARD APPROVES NEW SHARE BUYBACK AUTHORIZATION
Fiserv announced today that its board of directors authorized the repurchase of an additional 10 million shares of its common stock. Under this new authorization, which does not expire, Fiserv may repurchase shares in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions at the discretion of management, subject to its assessment of market conditions and other factors. The company expects to hold common stock acquired through the program for issuance in connection with acquisitions or pursuant to Fiservs equity plans and for other corporate purposes. Fiserv has completed its repurchase activity from previous authorizations.
In addition to investing internally and pursuing high-quality acquisitions, we will continue to utilize share repurchase as an important element of our plan to deliver long-term value for shareholders, said Yabuki.
INSURANCE AND HEALTH BUSINESSES FORM A NEW REPORTING SEGMENT
Fiserv re-aligned its reporting segments based on organizational changes announced in the fourth quarter. The newly created Insurance Services (Insurance) segment includes the insurance businesses that provide a broad array of technology solutions primarily for life insurance and property and casualty insurance companies. These businesses had previously been part of the Financial Institution Services (Financial) segment. Additionally, the new segment includes the businesses which comprised the former Health Plan Management Services (Health) segment.

comparisons between current results and prior reported results, and as a basis for planning and forecasting for future periods. As an example, the company uses adjusted earnings per share to present the impact of certain transactions or events that management expects to occur infrequently, such as the realized gain on sale of investment occurring in 2005. The company believes these adjusted measures are more indicative of the companys operating performance. The presentation of this additional information is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for comparable measures prepared in accordance with GAAP in the United States.

(2) | Share-based compensation expense for the year ended December 31, 2006 was $28.5 million ($0.11 per share) primarily due to the adoption of SFAS 123R on January 1, 2006, of which $7.2 million is included in cost of processing and services and $21.4 million is included in selling, general and administrative expenses. If SFAS 123R had been adopted January 1, 2005, share-based compensation expense for 2005 would have been $35.7 million, or $31.7 million higher than the $4.0 million of share-based compensation expense recorded. |
(3) | Represents the sale of the companys investment in INTRIA Items, Inc. in the fourth quarter of 2005 and the sale of the companys remaining 3.2 million shares of Bisys Group, Inc. common stock in the first quarter of 2005. |
(4) | Represents pro forma impact in 2005 of the incremental share-based compensation expense under SFAS 123R, which was adopted on January 1, 2006 under the modified prospective method. |
Adjusted earnings per share is a non-GAAP financial measure that the company believes is useful to investors because it presents the impact of certain transactions or events that management expects to occur infrequently, or to adjust for items in order to provide meaningful comparisons between current results and prior-year reported results.

Total contract termination fees for the year decreased $34.5 million in 2006 from 2005. This segments businesses generally enter into three- to five-year contracts that contain early contract termination fees. These fees are very unpredictable and can vary significantly from period to period based on the number and size of terminated contracts and how early in the contract term a contract is terminated. |
(2) | In the fourth quarter of 2006, the Insurance segment includes revenues of $347.5 million and operating income of $22.0 million for the previously reported Health segment. |
(3) | Operating income and margin in the Financial segment includes pre-tax charges totaling $9.0 million recorded in the fourth quarter of 2006 related to the write down of assets and facility shutdown costs in the companys lending division. |

Free cash flow is measured as net cash provided by operating activities less capital expenditures including capitalization of software costs for external customers, as reported in the companys condensed consolidated statements of cash flows. Free cash flow is a non-GAAP financial measure that the company believes is useful to investors because it measures cash flow after the company has satisfied the capital requirements of its operations.

(1) | Adjusted operating margin excludes customer reimbursement and prescription product costs which are included in revenues and expenses. Customer reimbursements primarily consist of pass-through costs such as postage and data communication expenses. Adjusted operating income and margin for 2005 includes the pro forma share-based compensation expense (SFAS 123R) impact and excludes the positive impact of a large contract termination fee of $26.3 million. Adjusted operating income and margin for 2006 excludes pre-tax charges totaling $9.0 million in the fourth quarter of 2006 related to the write down of assets and facility shutdown costs in the companys lending division. |
(2) | 2005 dollar amounts represent the incremental share-based compensation expense as if SFAS 123R had been adopted by the company on January 1, 2005. The actual share-based compensation expense recorded for the year ended December 31, 2005 was $4.0 million. |
Adjusted operating income and margin are non-GAAP financial measures that the company believes are useful to investors because they provide more insight into how management views the underlying operating performance of the company and presents the impact of certain transactions or events that management expects to occur infrequently, or to adjust for items in order to provide meaningful comparisons between current results and prior-year reported results. In analyzing the companys performance, management excludes the impact of pass-through customer reimbursements and prescription product costs that must be presented in revenue and expenses under GAAP and includes the pro forma share-based compensation expense impact in 2005 due to the prospective adoption of SFAS 123R, effective January 1, 2006.

(1) | Internal revenue growth percentages are measured as the increase in total revenues for the current period less acquired revenue from acquisitions divided by total revenues from the prior year period plus acquired revenue from acquisitions. Acquired revenue from acquisitions was $37.7 million ($20.1 million in the Financial segment and $17.6 million in the Insurance segment) for the fourth quarter of 2006 and $111.3 million ($69.3 million in the Financial segment and $42.1 million in the Insurance segment) for the year ended December 31, 2006 and represents pre-acquisition adjusted revenue of acquired companies, less dispositions, for the comparable prior year period. Acquired revenues in the Financial segment include customer reimbursement pass-through costs of $12.2 million and $16.6 million in the fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2005. |
(2) | The adjusted internal revenue growth percentages exclude the impact of a large contract termination fee recognized in the fourth quarter of 2005 of $26.3 million and the impact of customer reimbursements and prescription product costs, which are both included in revenues and expenses under GAAP. See footnote 1 in the Adjusted Operating Income and Margin Information section. |
(3) | The flood processing business negatively impacted adjusted internal revenue growth in the insurance segment by 9 percentage points in the fourth quarter of 2006. This was due primarily to the significant reduction in flood claims processing revenue from $15.9 million in the fourth quarter of 2005 to $1.8 million in the fourth quarter of 2006. Excluding the decrease in the flood processing business, the fourth quarter adjusted internal revenue growth rate for the Insurance segment would have been 4 percent. |
Actual and adjusted internal revenue growth percentages are non-GAAP financial measures that the company believes are useful to investors because they present internal revenue growth both including and excluding one large contract termination fee, as well as customer reimbursements and prescription product costs that must be presented in revenue under GAAP.

Segment Results
Financial Segment
The companys largest operating segment generated revenues of $748 million for the quarter with adjusted operating income of $150 million. Adjusted operating margin continued to be strong at 23.6 percent for the quarter compared with 21.1 percent in the fourth quarter of 2005. The increase in adjusted operating margin in the fourth quarter of 2006 compared with 2005 was due primarily to an increase in higher-margin revenues in the companys payments businesses, continued strong operating results in core bank and credit union processing, and overall operating efficiencies. These items were partially offset by weaker results in the companys lending division. Adjusted operating margins for the full year 2006 and 2005 were 23.2 percent and 23.1 percent, respectively.
Adjusted internal revenue growth was 5 percent for the quarter. For the full year, adjusted internal revenue growth was consistent with expectations at 6 percent as compared with 7 percent in 2005. Contributing positively to the internal revenue growth rate in 2006 were increased sales of banking, credit union, loan settlement services, and payment products and services; and continued solid growth in card fulfillment and print services within the output solutions division.
Insurance Segment
Insurance segment revenues were $416 million for the quarter, and generated operating income of $34 million. Adjusted operating margin for the quarter was 17.8 percent compared with 19.7 percent in the fourth quarter of 2005. Adjusted operating margin for the quarter compared with 2005 was negatively impacted by lower flood claim processing revenue and incremental investments in the companys consumer-directed health care initiatives, partially offset by stronger margins in the companys health and property and casualty insurance processing businesses. Full-year adjusted operating margin was 20.1 percent compared with 18.7 percent in 2005. The increase in 2006 adjusted operating margin compared with 2005 was

due primarily to higher operating margins in the companys flood and property and casualty insurance processing businesses, partially offset by continued investment primarily in its consumer-directed health care initiatives.
Adjusted internal revenues declined in the insurance segment by 5 percent in the fourth quarter of 2006 compared with the fourth quarter of 2005. For the fourth quarter of 2005, adjusted internal revenue growth was flat compared with the fourth quarter of 2004. The flood processing business negatively impacted adjusted internal revenue growth in the segment by 9 percentage points in the fourth quarter of 2006. This was due primarily to the significant reduction in flood claims processing revenue from $15.9 million in the fourth quarter of 2005 to $1.8 million in the fourth quarter of 2006. Excluding the decrease in the flood processing business, the fourth quarter adjusted internal revenue growth rate for the segment would have been 4 percent.
