- Revenue of $242 million, led by Servicing Technology revenue of approximately $164 million
- Revenue growth of 6% for the first quarter compared to the first quarter of 2015, led by strong growth in Origination Technology and Servicing Technology
- Adjusted EBITDA of $107 million, an $11 million increase, or 11%, over the first quarter of 2015 and an adjusted EBITDA margin of 45.1%
'This quarter was a solid start to what we expect to be another successful year for FNF, as we generated a 9.8% pre-tax title margin in the first quarter,' said Chairman William P. Foley, II. 'Given the normal slow first quarter seasonal pattern, a nearly 10% pre-tax title margin is a strong historical first quarter performance. TRID implementation has had a negative impact on our closing efficiency ratio as we continue to carry higher than normal headcount to help our customers navigate the new closing process. With a current backdrop of mid-single digit growth in the purchase market, an apparently softening refinance market and a relatively flat, although still very strong, commercial market, we are targeting a 15% pre-tax title margin in the second quarter.
'Black Knight continued its strong financial performance this quarter, generating 6% revenue growth, $107 million in adjusted EBITDA and a 45.1% adjusted EBITDA margin. FNF's Black Knight ownership stake is currently worth approximately $2.5 billion, or more than $9 per FNF share, and we continue to believe that Black Knight will generate long-term value for FNF shareholders.'

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information
Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) is the term used to refer to the standard framework of guidelines for financial accounting. GAAP includes the standards, conventions, and rules accountants follow in recording and summarizing transactions and in the preparation of financial statements. In addition to reporting financial results in accordance with GAAP, the Company has provided non-GAAP financial measures, which it believes are useful to help investors better understand its financial performance, competitive position and prospects for the future. These non-GAAP measures include earnings before interest, taxes and depreciation and amortization (EBITDA), adjusted earnings before interest, taxes and depreciation and amortization (Adjusted EBITDA), adjusted earnings before interest, taxes and depreciation as a percent of adjusted revenue (Adjusted EBITDA margin), adjusted net earnings, adjusted EPS and free cash flow.
Any non-GAAP measures should be considered in context with the GAAP financial presentation and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for GAAP net earnings. Further, FNF's non-GAAP measures may be calculated differently from similarly titled measures of other companies. Reconciliations of these non-GAAP measures to related GAAP measures are provided below.
Forward-Looking Statements and Risk Factors
This press release contains forward-looking statements that involve a number of risks and uncertainties. Statements that are not historical facts, including statements regarding our expectations, hopes, intentions or strategies regarding the future are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are based on management's beliefs, as well as assumptions made by, and information currently available to, management. Because such statements are based on expectations as to future financial and operating results and are not statements of fact, actual results may differ materially from those projected. We undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. The risks and uncertainties which forward-looking statements are subject to include, but are not limited to: changes in general economic, business and political conditions, including changes in the financial markets; weakness or adverse changes in the level of real estate activity, which may be caused by, among other things, high or increasing interest rates, a limited supply of mortgage funding or a weak U. S. economy; our potential inability to find suitable acquisition candidates, acquisitions in lines of business that will not necessarily be limited to our traditional areas of focus, or difficulties in integrating acquisitions; our dependence on distributions from our title insurance underwriters as a main source of cash flow; significant competition that our operating subsidiaries face; compliance with extensive government regulation of our operating subsidiaries.
This press release should be read in conjunction with the press release filed for the results of FNFV on this same date as well as the risks detailed in the 'Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Information,' 'Risk Factors' and other sections of the Company's Form 10-Q, 10-K and other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
