On Wednesday, July 30th, GFI Group, Inc. ("GFI") announced an agreement to sell its Trayport and FENICS businesses to CME Group Inc. ("CME") in a two-step transaction. First, CME will acquire all the outstanding common stock of GFI for $4.55 per share in CME Class A common stock. Immediately following the acquisition of GFI Group, a private consortium of GFI management led by Executive Chairman Michael Gooch, CEO Colin Heffron and Managing Director Nick Brown, will acquire GFI's wholesale brokerage business from CME for $165 million in cash and the assumption, at closing, of approximately $63 million in unvested deferred compensation and other liabilities.
After the completion of the transaction, the wholesale brokerage business, including the Kyte Group, will continue as a private company with its management and operations largely unchanged. The transaction is expected to close in early 2015, subject to GFI shareholder and regulatory approvals.
Regarding GFI's financial results, Colin Heffron, Chief Executive Officer, commented: "In the second quarter revenues from our software, analytics and market data businesses increased 17.4% due to strong growth from Trayport. However, GFI's brokerage business continued to be impacted by a number of cyclical and structural headwinds including muted volatility across asset classes, low interest rates, higher capital requirements and ongoing regulatory changes. As a result, non-GAAP brokerage and net revenues declined 10.6% and 6.8%, respectively.
"Matching session revenues continue to grow and remain a key focus of our electronic trading strategy in fixed income and foreign exchange products. Matching session revenues grew 49% year over year in cash bond products globally. In the Americas and EMEA, fixed income matching session revenues represented approximately 49% and 17% of total fixed income product revenues, respectively.
"Difficult trading conditions and less favorable foreign currency translation in Europe masked progress in the compensation expense area. However, broker compensation as a percentage of brokerage revenues decreased despite a significant decline in brokerage revenues. Further, our continued discipline with regards to sign-on and retention bonus payments led to an improvement in expense of $2.2 million in 2014. We expect considerable operating leverage if higher volumes return to the global markets.
"GFI's preliminary July total revenues are tracking down approximately 3.5% year over year.
"GFI's second quarter cash earnings were $19.2 million, or $0.15 per diluted share.
"Given the pending transaction with CME Group, the dividend has been suspended at this time."
GAAP Results: Second Quarter 2014
Net revenues were $186.3 million, compared to $198.4 million in the prior year. Net loss was $97.8 million, or ($0.78) per diluted share, compared with net income of $6.7 million, or $0.05 per diluted share. Compensation and employee benefits expense was 69.8% of net revenues, versus 67.8% in the prior year quarter. Non-compensation expenses were $185.3 million, or 99.4% of net revenues, compared to $56.2 million, or 28.3%, in the prior year quarter. GAAP non-compensation expenses in the second quarter of 2014 include a $121.6 million non-cash pre-tax goodwill impairment charge related to the wholesale brokerage reporting units and Kyte.

The effective non-GAAP year to date tax rate was estimated at a negative 22.1% as compared to 36.0% for full-year 2013.The negative 2014 tax rate was a result of regional shifts in taxable incomes.
GAAP Results: Six Months ended June 30, 2014
Net revenues were $388.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014 compared with $399.9 million in the same period of 2013.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To supplement GFI's unaudited financial statements presented in accordance with GAAP, the Company uses certain non-GAAP measures of financial performance. The presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures is not intended to be considered in isolation from, as a substitute for, or superior to, the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP, and may be different from non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. In addition, these non-GAAP measures have limitations in that they do not reflect all of the amounts associated with the Company's results of operations as determined in accordance with GAAP. The non-GAAP financial measures used by GFI include non-GAAP total revenues, non-GAAP net revenues, non-GAAP provision for or benefit from income taxes, non-GAAP net income, non-GAAP diluted earnings per share, cash earnings and cash earnings per share. These non-GAAP financial measures currently exclude from the Company's statement of income amortization of acquired intangibles and certain other items that management views as non-operating, non-recurring or non-cash as detailed in the reconciliation included in the financial tables attached to this release.
In addition, GFI may consider whether other significant non-operating, non-recurring or non-cash items that arise in the future should also be excluded in calculating the non-GAAP financial measures it uses. The non-GAAP financial measures also take into account estimated adjustments to income tax expense with respect to the excluded items.
GFI believes that these non-GAAP financial measures, when taken together with the corresponding GAAP financial measures, provide meaningful supplemental information regarding the Company's performance by excluding certain items that may not be indicative of the Company's core business, operating results or future outlook. GFI's management uses, and believes that investors benefit from referring to, these non-GAAP financial measures in assessing the Company's operating results, as well as when planning, forecasting and analyzing future periods. These non-GAAP financial measures also facilitate comparisons of the Company's performance to prior periods.
In addition to the reasons stated above, which are generally applicable to each of the items GFI excludes from its non-GAAP financial measures, the Company believes it is appropriate to exclude amortization of acquired intangibles because when analyzing the operating performance of an acquired business, GFI's management focuses on the total return provided by the investment (i.e., operating profit generated from the acquired entity, as compared to the purchase price paid) without taking into consideration any charges for allocations made for accounting purposes. Further, because the purchase price for an acquisition necessarily reflects the accounting value assigned to intangible assets, when analyzing the operating performance of an acquisition in subsequent periods, the Company's management excludes the GAAP impact of acquired intangible assets on its financial results. GFI believes that such an approach is useful in understanding the long-term return provided by an acquisition and that investors benefit from a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure that excludes the accounting expense associated with acquired intangible assets.
A reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to GAAP is included in the financial tables attached to this release.
