- Consolidated revenues were $677.2 million, up 7.4% and up 6.0% on an organic constant currency (OCC) basis for the fourth quarter of 2023. Prior year results included storm-related revenue associated with Hurricane Ian, which negatively impacted OCC growth by 90 basis points. For the full year 2023, consolidated revenues were $2,681.4 million, up 7.4% and up 8.7% on an OCC basis.
- Income from continuing operations was $182.3 million, down 15.5% for the fourth quarter of 2023. Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP measure, was $362.0 million, up 9.0%, and up 6.5% on an OCC basis. For the full year 2023, income from continuing operations was $768.4 million, down 26.3%, while adjusted EBITDA was $1,433.5 million, up 11.6%, and up 11.5% on an OCC basis.
- Diluted GAAP earnings per share from continuing operations (diluted EPS attributable to Verisk) were $1.25 for the fourth quarter of 2023, down 8.8%. Diluted adjusted earnings per share from continuing operations (diluted adjusted EPS), a non-GAAP measure, were $1.40, down 2.1%. The decrease in diluted adjusted EPS was driven by a one-time tax benefit of approximately $30.3 million in the fourth quarter 2022, and higher depreciation expense. For the full year 2023, diluted EPS attributable to Verisk were $5.22, down 20.3% and diluted adjusted EPS were $5.71, up 14.0%.
- Net cash provided by operating activities was $252.4 million, up 1.4% and free cash flow, a non-GAAP measure, was $196.1 million, up 15.8% for the fourth quarter of 2023.

- We repurchased $250 million of our shares during the fourth quarter of 2023. On February 14, 2024, our Board of Directors approved an additional $1.0 billion share repurchase authorization.
- We paid a cash dividend of 34 cents per share on December 31, 2023. Our Board of Directors approved a cash dividend of 39 cents per share payable on March 29, 2024, an increase of 15%.

Revenues from Continuing Operations
Consolidated revenues were $677.2 million, up 7.4% and up 6.0% on an OCC basis for the fourth quarter, reflecting solid growth in underwriting and more moderate growth in claims. Storm-related revenue (Hurricane Ian) of $5.6 million in the fourth quarter of 2022 compared to almost no storm activity in the current year's quarter, negatively impacted our OCC revenue growth by approximately 90 basis points. For the full year 2023, consolidated revenues were $2,681.4 million, up 7.4% and up 8.7% on an OCC basis, reflecting broad-based growth across most of our businesses.

Insurance segment revenues grew 7.4% in the fourth quarter of 2023 and 6.0% on an OCC basis. For the full year 2023, insurance segment revenues grew 10.0% and 8.7% on an OCC basis.
- Underwriting revenues increased 7.8% in the quarter and 7.3% on an OCC basis, primarily resulting from solid growth across forms, rules, and loss costs, underwriting data and analytic solutions, extreme event solutions, and life insurance solutions.
- Claims revenue grew 6.6% in the quarter and 2.8% on an OCC basis. The year-over-year increase in revenues was driven by growth in anti-fraud, casualty, and international. Storm-related revenue from the prior year negatively impacted OCC revenue growth by 320 basis points.
There was no Energy and Specialized Markets segment revenue in the quarter. We closed on the sale of the Energy business on February 1, 2023, and accounted for it as discontinued operations. We closed on the sale of 3E on March 11, 2022.
There was no Financial Services segment revenue in the quarter as we closed the sale of Verisk Financial Services on April 8, 2022.
Income and Adjusted EBITDA from Continuing Operations
During fourth-quarter 2023, income from continuing operations was $182.3 million, a decrease of 15.5%. The decrease in income from continuing operations was primarily due to a $19.0 million litigation reserve expense in the fourth quarter of 2023 associated with an indemnification for an ongoing inquiry related to our former Financial Services segment, a one-time tax benefit of approximately $30.3 million in the fourth quarter of 2022, and higher depreciation expense in the fourth quarter of 2023 associated with the timing of certain large internally developed projects that were completed and placed into service during the year. Adjusted EBITDA increased 9.0%, and 6.5% on an OCC basis, primarily due to strong revenue growth and cost discipline. For 2023, income from continuing operations was $768.4 million, down 26.3%, while adjusted EBITDA was $1,433.5 million, up 11.6%, and up 11.5% on an OCC basis, reflecting strong revenue growth and cost discipline.

Note: Consolidated EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are non-GAAP measures. 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, Energy, and Verisk Financial Services. Segment-level adjusted EBITDA margins for 2023 reflect a higher level of corporate allocations resulting from recent dispositions and the impact of foreign currency fluctuations.

Earnings Per Share and Diluted Adjusted Earnings Per Share
Diluted EPS attributable to Verisk decreased 8.8% to $1.25 for the fourth quarter of 2023. Diluted adjusted EPS decreased 2.1% to $1.40 for the fourth quarter of 2023. The decrease in diluted EPS attributable to Verisk and diluted adjusted EPS was the result of a lower tax expense in the prior year resulting from a one-time tax benefit of approximately $30.3 million, as well as higher year-over-year depreciation expense in the fourth quarter of 2023 related to the timing of certain large internally developed software projects that were completed and placed into service during the year. This was offset in part by strong revenue and profit growth, lower net interest expense, and the benefit from our accelerated share repurchase program. For the full year 2023, diluted EPS attributable to Verisk were $5.22, down 20.3% and diluted adjusted EPS were $5.71, up 14.0%.
Cash Flow and Free Cash Flow
Net cash provided by operating activities was $252.4 million for the fourth quarter of 2023, up 1.4%, and free cash flow was $196.1 million, up 15.8%. The increase in net cash provided by operating activities reflects an increase in the operating profit of our insurance segment and lower tax payments in the current year, offset by the disposition of our Energy business. Cash taxes paid in the prior year were higher primarily due to the gain on the sale of 3E. For the full year 2023, net cash provided by operating activities was $1,060.7 million, up 0.2%, and free cash flow was $830.7 million, up 5.9%.
Dividend
On December 31, 2023, we paid a cash dividend of 34 cents per share of common stock issued and outstanding to the holders of record as of December 15, 2023.
On February 14, 2024, our Board of Directors approved a cash dividend of 39 cents per share of common stock issued and outstanding, a 15% increase. The dividend is payable on March 29, 2024, to holders of record as of March 15, 2024.
Share Repurchases
During the fourth quarter 2023, we entered into and fully funded an accelerated share repurchase program (ASR) of $250 million and received an initial delivery of 0.9 million shares. Upon the final settlement of this ASR agreement in February 2024, we received additional shares of 0.2 million as determined by the daily volume weighted average share price of our common stock of $237.71 during the term of this ASR agreement.
As of December 31, 2023, we had $641.5 million remaining under our share repurchase authorization. On February 14, 2024, our Board of Directors approved an additional $1.0 billion share repurchase authorization.

Forward-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, or achievements.
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 from continuing operations 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 from continuing operations 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) and nonrecurring gain/loss associated with cost-based and equity method investments 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.
See page 10 for a reconciliation of consolidated adjusted EBITDA and a segment results summary and a reconciliation of adjusted EBITDA. See page 11 for a reconciliation of segment adjusted EBITDA margin, a reconciliation of adjusted EBITDA expenses, and a reconciliation of diluted adjusted EPS. See page 12 for a reconciliation of net cash provided by operating activities to free cash flow.
