Principles of Consolidation
Principles of Consolidation

1. Principles of Consolidation

The condensed consolidated financial statements for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2010 and 2009 are unaudited. In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the condensed consolidated financial statements have been included. Such adjustments consisted of normal recurring items. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year. The condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes are presented as permitted by Form 10-Q and do not contain certain information included in the annual consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes of Fiserv, Inc. (the “Company”). These interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009.

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Fiserv, Inc. and all 100% owned subsidiaries. Investments in less than 50% owned affiliates in which the Company has significant influence are accounted for using the equity method of accounting. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

Fair Value Measurements
Fair Value Measurements

2. Fair Value Measurements

Assets and liabilities which are measured at fair value are classified in the following categories:

Level 1 – At March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009, the fair values of available-for-sale investments in asset-backed securities of $10 million and $11 million, respectively, were based on quoted prices in active markets for identical instruments as of the reporting date.

Level 2 – At March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009, the fair values of available-for-sale investments in asset-backed securities of $5 million and $6 million, respectively, and liabilities for interest rate hedge contracts of $93 million and $92 million, respectively, were determined from market based valuation models for which pricing inputs were either directly or indirectly observable as of the reporting date.

Level 3 – At March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009, the fair values of available-for-sale investments of $23 million were based on valuation models with unobservable pricing inputs and management estimates. Unrealized losses of $2 million were recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss at March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009.

The fair value of the Company’s total debt was estimated using discounted cash flows based on the Company’s current incremental borrowing rates or quoted prices in active markets and totaled $3.6 billion and $3.8 billion at March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively.

Share-Based Compensation
Share-Based Compensation

3. Share-Based Compensation

The Company recognized $10 million and $11 million of share-based compensation during the first quarter of 2010 and 2009, respectively. The Company’s annual grant of share-based awards generally occurs in the first quarter. During the first quarter of 2010, the Company granted 1.1 million stock options and 0.4 million restricted stock units at weighted-average estimated fair values of $17.48 and $47.73, respectively. During the first quarter of 2009, the Company granted 1.4 million stock options and 0.5 million restricted stock units at weighted-average estimated fair values of $12.40 and $32.78, respectively. During the first quarter of 2010 and 2009, stock options to purchase 0.8 million shares and 0.2 million shares, respectively, were exercised.

Shares Used in Computing Net Income Per Share
Shares Used in Computing Net Income Per Share

4. Shares Used in Computing Net Income Per Share

Basic weighted-average outstanding shares used in calculating net income per share were 152.5 million and 155.5 million for the first quarter of 2010 and 2009, respectively. Diluted weighted-average outstanding shares used in calculating net income per share were 153.7 million and 156.0 million for the first quarter of 2010 and 2009, respectively, and included 1.2 million and 0.5 million common stock equivalents, respectively. For the first quarter of 2010 and 2009, stock options for 2.5 million shares and 6.4 million shares, respectively, were excluded from the calculation of diluted weighted-average outstanding shares because their impact was anti-dilutive.

Interest Rate Hedge Contracts
Interest Rate Hedge Contracts

5. Interest Rate Hedge Contracts

To manage exposure to fluctuations in interest rates, the Company maintains a series of interest rate swap agreements (“Swaps”) with total notional values of $1.2 billion at March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009. The Swaps have been designated by the Company as cash flow hedges, effectively fix interest rates on floating rate term loan borrowings at a weighted-average rate of approximately 4.8% prior to financing spreads and related fees, and have expiration dates through September 2012. The fair values of the Swaps, as discussed in Note 2, were recorded in other long-term liabilities and in accumulated other comprehensive loss, net of income taxes, in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. The components of other comprehensive income (loss) pertaining to interest rate hedge contracts are presented in Note 6. In the first quarter of 2010 and 2009, interest expense recognized due to hedge ineffectiveness was not significant, and no amounts were excluded from the assessments of hedge effectiveness. Based on the amounts recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss at March 31, 2010, the Company estimates that it will recognize approximately $40 million in interest expense related to interest rate hedge contracts during the next twelve months.
