Ed Heffernan, president and chief executive officer of Alliance Data, commented, "The second quarter marked the beginning of the long-awaited acceleration in our business. Specifically, both Card Services and LoyaltyOne® produced double-digit growth in both revenue and adjusted EBITDA. These results contributed to core EPS growth of 31 percent putting our first-half growth rate at 22 percent.
"At Card Services, we continue to see favorable trends across key metrics. Credit sales and receivables growth for active programs increased 11 percent and 18 percent, respectively, while our net principal loss rate improved sequentially from the first quarter and remains on track to drop below 6 percent in the second-half of 2018."
Heffernan continued: "Looking forward, we expect both Card Services and LoyaltyOne to continue to produce strong results during the second-half of 2018. Additionally, after a soft first-half, we expect Epsilon® to solidly contribute to revenue growth in the back-half of 2018. Overall, we remain comfortably on track to deliver our full-year core EPS guidance of $22.50 to $23.00 per share, representing a 16 to 19 percent growth rate."
CONSOLIDATED RESULTS
Revenue increased 5 percent to $1.9 billion for the second quarter of 2018. Pro forma revenue − which adjusts for the change to net revenue presentation for AIR MILES® effective January 1, 2018 − increased 8 percent. EPS increased 59 percent to $3.93 for the second quarter of 2018, aided by a one-time tax benefit in the GAAP effective tax rate associated with foreign restructuring. Core EPS increased 31 percent to $5.01 for the second quarter of 2018 (one-time tax benefit excluded from core effective tax rate), while adjusted EBITDA, net increased 9 percent to $471 million for the second quarter of 2018.

LoyaltyOne: Pro forma revenue increased 12 percent to $315 million and adjusted EBITDA increased 22 percent to $69 million for the second quarter of 2018. AIR MILES reward miles issued increased 2 percent for the second quarter of 2018 − improving from a 1 percent decline in the second quarter of 2017 − and is projected to grow for the remainder of 2018. In addition, the number of active programs at BrandLoyalty increased at a double-digit rate in the second quarter, supported by events including the FIFA World Cup.
Epsilon: Revenue decreased 5 percent to $514 million, while adjusted EBITDA was flat with the prior year at $107 million for the second quarter of 2018. The decline in revenue was largely attributable to lower margin agency and site-based display product offerings. Adjusted EBITDA margins widened 100 basis points to 21 percent for the second quarter of 2018, due to the favorable shift in revenue mix.
Card Services: Revenue increased 14 percent to $1.15 billion while adjusted EBITDA, net increased 10 percent to $336 million for the second quarter of 2018. Adjusted EBITDA, net was tempered by a $20 million allowance for loan loss build associated with double-digit growth in average card receivables.
2018 Current Guidance
- Revenue of $8.2 billion, representing a 6 percent increase, 10 percent on a pro forma basis.
- Core EPS of $22.50 to $23.00, representing a 16 to 19 percent increase over 2017.
Forward-Looking Statements
This release contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Forward-looking statements give our expectations or forecasts of future events and can generally be identified by the use of words such as "believe," "expect," "anticipate," "estimate," "intend," "project," "plan," "likely," "may," "should" or other words or phrases of similar import. Similarly, statements that describe our business strategy, outlook, objectives, plans, intentions or goals also are forward-looking statements. Examples of forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements we make regarding our expected operating results, future economic conditions including currency exchange rates, future dividend declarations and the guidance we give with respect to our anticipated financial performance.
We believe that our expectations are based on reasonable assumptions. Forward-looking statements, however, are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from the projections, anticipated results or other expectations expressed in this release, and no assurances can be given that our expectations will prove to have been correct. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, factors set forth in the Risk Factors section in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the most recently ended fiscal year, which may be updated in Item 1A of, or elsewhere in, our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q filed for periods subsequent to such Form 10-K.
Our forward-looking statements speak only as of the date made, and we undertake no obligation, other than as required by applicable law, to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, subsequent events, anticipated or unanticipated circumstances or otherwise.
Financial Measures
In addition to the results presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, the Company may present financial measures that are non-GAAP measures, such as constant currency financial measures, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, adjusted EBITDA, net of funding costs, core earnings and core earnings per diluted share (core EPS). Constant currency excludes the impact of fluctuations in foreign exchange rates. The Company calculates constant currency by converting our current period local currency financial results using the prior period exchange rates. The Company uses adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA, net as an integral part of internal reporting to measure the performance and operational strength of reportable segments and to evaluate the performance of senior management. Adjusted EBITDA eliminates the uneven effect across all reportable segments of non-cash depreciation of tangible assets and amortization of intangible assets, including certain intangible assets that were recognized in business combinations, and the non-cash effect of stock compensation expense. Similarly, core earnings and core EPS eliminate non-cash or non-operating items, including, but not limited to, stock compensation expense, amortization of purchased intangibles, amortization of debt issuance and hedging costs. The Company believes that these non-GAAP financial measures, viewed in addition to and not in lieu of the Company's reported GAAP results, provide useful information to investors regarding the Company's performance and overall results of operations.
Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Reconciliations to comparable GAAP financial measures are available in the accompanying schedules, which are posted as part of this earnings release in both the News and Investors sections on the Company's website (www.alliancedata.com). No reconciliation is provided with respect to forward-looking annual guidance for 2018 core EPS as the Company cannot reliably predict all necessary components or their impact to reconcile core EPS to GAAP EPS without unreasonable effort. The events necessitating a non-GAAP adjustment are inherently unpredictable and may have a material impact on the Company's future results.
The financial measures presented are consistent with the Company's historical financial reporting practices. Core earnings and core EPS represent performance measures and are not intended to represent liquidity measures. The non-GAAP financial measures presented herein may not be comparable to similarly titled measures presented by other companies, and are not identical to corresponding measures used in other various agreements or public filings.
