First Advantage Corporation

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

1. Organization and Nature of Business

First Advantage Corporation (the “Company” or “First Advantage”) is a global risk mitigation and business solutions provider and operates in five primary business segments: Credit Services, Data Services, Employer Services, Multifamily Services, and Investigative and Litigation Support Services. In the first quarter of 2009, the Company consolidated the previous Lender Services and Dealer Services segments and moved the consumer credit business from the Data Services segment to create the Credit Services segment. The prior periods have been recast to reflect the changed segments.

The First American Corporation and affiliates (“First American”) own approximately 80% of the shares of capital stock of the Company as of June 30, 2009. The Class B common stock owned by First American is entitled to ten votes per share on all matters presented to the stockholders for vote.

On June 29, 2009, the Company received an unsolicited proposal from First American to acquire all of the issued and outstanding shares of the Company's common stock not owned by First American at a fixed exchange ratio of 0.5375 of a share of First American's common stock for each share of the Company's common stock. First American's proposal is subject to confirmatory due diligence, the negotiation of an acceptable definitive acquisition agreement and the receipt of all necessary stockholder and regulatory approvals. First American's proposal is under consideration by the Special Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company, which is comprised of directors who are unaffiliated with First American.

As part of the Company’s streamlining initiative, in the second quarter of 2008, First Advantage sold First Advantage Investigative Services (“FAIS”), which was included in our Investigative and Litigation Support Services segment, and Credit Management Solutions, Inc. (“CMSI”), which was included in our Credit Services segment. The results of these businesses’ operations in the prior period are presented in discontinued operations in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Income.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The consolidated financial information included in this report has been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and does not include all of the information and notes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments are of a normal, recurring nature and are considered necessary for a fair statement of the results for the interim period. The year-end balance sheet data was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles. This report should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Certain amounts for the three and six months ended June 30, 2008 and at December 31, 2008 have been reclassified to conform with 2009 presentation.

Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the entire fiscal year.

Subsequent events have been evaluated through July 30, 2009, the date these financial statements were issued.

As of June 30, 2009, the Company’s significant accounting policies and estimates, which are detailed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008, have not changed from December 31, 2008, except for the adoption of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 141 (revised 2007), “Business Combinations,” SFAS No. 160, “Noncontrolling Interest in Consolidated Financial Statements,” SFAS No. 165, "Subsequent Events," and FASB Staff Position FAS 107-1, "Interim Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments."

Purchase Accounting

In December 2007, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued SFAS No. 141 (revised 2007), “Business Combinations” (“SFAS 141(R)”). SFAS 141(R) retains the fundamental requirements in SFAS No. 141 that the acquisition method of accounting (which SFAS No. 141 called the purchase method) be used for all business combinations and for an acquirer to be identified for each business combination. In general, the statement 1) broadens the guidance of SFAS No. 141, extending its applicability to all events where one entity obtains control over one or more other businesses, 2) broadens the use of fair value measurements used to recognize the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, 3) changes the accounting for acquisition related fees and restructuring costs incurred in connection with an acquisition, and 4) increases required disclosures. The Company will apply the provisions of this statement prospectively to business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after January 1, 2009.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

Noncontrolling Interest

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, “Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements—an amendment of ARB No. 51” (“SFAS 160”). SFAS 160 requires that a noncontrolling interest in a subsidiary be reported as equity and the amount of consolidated net income specifically attributable to the noncontrolling interest be identified in the consolidated financial statements. It also requires consistency in the manner of reporting changes in the parent’s ownership interest and requires fair value measurement of any noncontrolling equity investment retained in a deconsolidation. The Company has applied the provisions of this statement effective beginning on January 1, 2009 and the adoption did not have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

In April 2009, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position (“FSP”) FSP SFAS 107-1 and APB 28-1, “Interim Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments.” This FSP amends Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (“SFAS”) No. 107, “Disclosures About Fair Value of Financial Instruments,” to require disclosures about fair value of financial instruments for interim reporting periods of publicly traded companies as well as in annual financial statements. This FSP also amends APB Opinion No. 28, “Interim Financial Reporting,” to require those disclosures in summarized financial information at interim reporting periods. This FSP is effective for interim reporting periods ending after June 15, 2009. The FSP does not require disclosures for earlier periods presented for comparative purposes at initial adoption. In periods after initial adoption, this FSP requires comparative disclosures only for periods ending after initial adoption. We adopted this new standard effective April 1, 2009.

The carrying amount of the Company’s financial instruments at June 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008, which includes cash and cash equivalents, marketable equity securities and accounts receivable, approximates fair value because of the short maturity of those instruments. The Company’s marketable equity securities are classified as available for sale securities. Unrealized holding gains and losses for available for sale securities are excluded from earnings and reported, net of taxes, as accumulated other comprehensive (loss) income. The Company considers its variable rate debt to be representative of current market rates and, accordingly, estimates that the recorded amounts approximate fair market value. Fair value estimates of its fixed rate debt were determined using discounted cash flow methods with a discount rate of 3.25% and 3.25%, which are the estimated rates that similar instruments could be negotiated at June 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008, respectively.

The estimated fair values of the Company’s financial instruments, none of which are held for trading purposes, are summarized as follows:

	June 30, 2009						December 31, 2008
(in thousands)	Carrying			Estimated			Carrying			Estimated
	Amount			Fair Value			Amount			Fair Value
Cash and cash equivalents	$	60,478		$	60,478		$	52,361		$	52,361
Accounts receivable		118,702			118,702			121,531			121,531
Marketable equity securities		43,389			43,389			30,365			30,365
Long-term debt and capital leases		(38,164	)		(38,201	)		(32,829	)		(32,699	)

Subsequent Events

In May 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 165, “Subsequent Events” (“SFAS 165”). SFAS 165 establishes general standards of accounting for and disclosure of events that occur after the balance sheet date but before financial statements are issued. SFAS 165 is effective for reporting periods ending after June 15, 2009.

3. Acquisitions

During the first six months of 2009, the Company paid consideration of approximately $19.5 million in cash related to earnout provisions from prior year acquisitions and approximately $5.1 million for the final purchase of a portion of noncontrolling interests in LeadClick Media, Inc. The additional consideration related to earnout provisions was recorded to goodwill and the purchase of noncontrolling interests was recorded to additional paid in capital when paid.

The changes in the carrying amount of goodwill, by operating segment, are as follows for the six months ended June 30, 2009:

5. Goodwill and Intangible Assets

In accordance with SFAS No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets,” the Company will perform the goodwill impairment test for all reporting units in the fourth quarter of 2009. There have been no impairments of goodwill during the six months ended June 30, 2009.

Given the current economic environment and the uncertainties regarding the impact on the Company’s business, there can be no assurance that the Company’s estimates and assumptions regarding the duration of the ongoing economic downturn, or the period or strength of recovery, made for purposes of the Company’s goodwill impairment testing during the year ended December 31, 2008 will prove to be accurate predictions of the future. If the Company’s assumptions regarding forecasted revenue or margin growth rates of certain reporting units are not achieved, the Company may be required to record additional goodwill impairment losses in future periods, whether in connection with the Company’s next annual impairment testing in the fourth quarter of 2009 or prior to that, if any such change constitutes a triggering event in other than the quarter in which the annual goodwill impairment test is performed. It is not possible at this time to determine if any such future impairment loss would result or, if it does, whether such charge would be material.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION

AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Overview

First Advantage Corporation (Nasdaq: FADV) (“First Advantage” or the “Company”) provides global risk mitigation, screening services and credit reporting to enterprise and consumer customers. The Company operates in five primary business segments: Credit Services, Data Services, Employer Services, Multifamily Services, and Investigative & Litigation Support Services. In the first quarter of 2009, the Company consolidated the previous Lender Services and Dealer Services segments and moved the consumer credit business from the Data Services segment to create the Credit Services segment. The prior periods have been recast to reflect the changed segments. First Advantage is headquartered in Poway, California and has approximately 3,700 employees in offices throughout the United States and abroad.

The current economic downturn has caused decreased service revenue in the Credit Services segment related to the mortgage and auto industries and the Data Services segment related to the transportation and specialty finance businesses. Management expects continued weakness in the real estate and mortgage markets to continue impacting the Company’s Credit Services segment and the transportation and specialty credit businesses in the Data Services segment. In addition, the effect of the issues in the real estate and related credit markets together with the other macroeconomic matters has resulted in higher unemployment rates negatively impacting the volumes in the Employer Services segment. Given this outlook, management is focusing on expense reductions, operating efficiencies, and increasing market share throughout the Company.

Operating results for the three months ended June 30, 2009 included total service revenue of $164.7 million, this represents a decrease of 9.7% over the same period in 2008. Operating results for the six months ended June 30, 2009 included total service revenue of $354.7 million, this represents a decrease of 4.3% over the same period in 2008. Operating income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2009 was $21.9 million and $40.8 million, respectively. Operating income decreased $2.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2009 in comparison to the same period in 2008. Operating income decreased $10.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009 in comparison to the same period in 2008.

Consolidated Results

Six Months Ended June 30, 2009 Compared to Six Months Ended June 30, 2008

Consolidated service revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2009 was $354.7 million, a decrease of $16.0 million compared to service revenue of $370.7 million in the same period in 2008. The decrease in service revenue is directly related to the downturn in domestic and international hiring, the decline in the mortgage industry, weakness in the credit markets, and overall economic slowdown, partially offset by an increase in the Data Services segment.

Salaries and benefits decreased $28.1 million. Salaries and benefits were 28.6% of service revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2009 and 34.9% for the same period in 2008. The decrease is primarily due to strategic reductions in employees, a decline of compensation related to revenue and profitability, and a reduction in the 401(k) match expense.

Facilities and telecommunication decreased by $2.8 million compared to the same period in 2008. Facilities and telecommunication expenses were 3.8% of service revenue in the first six months of 2009 and 4.4% in the first quarter of 2008. The decrease is primarily due to savings related to office consolidations.

Other operating expenses decreased by $7.8 million compared to the same period in 2008. Other operating expenses were 10.7% and 12.3% of service revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively. The decrease in expense is due to office consolidations and cost reduction measures. This is offset by an increase in bad debt expense at the Data Services segment.

Depreciation and amortization increased by $1.0 million due to fixed asset additions and the roll out of internally developed software, offset by certain fixed assets and intangibles becoming fully depreciated.

The consolidated operating margin was 11.5% for the six months ended June 30, 2009, compared to 13.8% for the same period in 2008. Income from operations was $40.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009 compared to $51.2 million for the same period in 2008. The decrease of $10.4 million is comprised of a decrease in operating income of $15.6 million in Investigative and Litigation Support Services, and $4.3 million at Employer Services offset by increases in operating income of $4.0 million in Credit Services, $1.9 million in Multifamily Services, $0.3 million in Data Services, and a decrease of corporate expenses of $3.3 million.

Critical Accounting Estimates

Critical accounting policies are those policies used in the preparation of the Company’s financial statements that require management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of certain assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses and related disclosure of contingencies. A summary of these policies can be found in Management’s Discussion and Analysis in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for year ended December 31, 2008.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Overview

The Company’s principal sources of capital include, but are not limited to, existing cash balances, operating cash flows and borrowing under its Secured Credit Facility (see Note 6 to the Consolidated Financial Statements). The Company’s short-term and long-term liquidity depends primarily upon its level of net income, working capital management (accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses), capital expenditures and bank borrowings. The Company believes that, based on current forecasts and anticipated market conditions, sufficient operating cash flow will be generated to meet all operating needs, to make planned capital expenditures, scheduled debt payments, and tax obligations for the next twelve months. Any material variance of operating results could require us to seek other funding alternatives including raising additional capital, which may be difficult in the current economic conditions.

In previous years, First Advantage sought to acquire other businesses as part of its growth strategy. The Company will continue to evaluate acquisitions in order to achieve economies of scale, expand market share and enter new markets.

While uncertainties within the Company’s industry exist, management is not aware of any trends or events likely to have a material adverse effect on liquidity or the accompanying financial statements. Management expects continued weakness in the real estate and mortgage markets to continue impacting the Company’s Credit Services segment and the transportation and specialty credit businesses in the Data Services segment. In addition, the effect of the issues in the real estate and related credit markets and other macroeconomic matters has resulted in higher unemployment rates negatively impacting the volumes in the Employer Services segment. Given this outlook, management is focusing on expense reductions, operating efficiencies, and increasing market share throughout the Company.
