3. SEGMENT INFORMATION
     On January 1, 2007, the Company reorganized its business segments for both operational and reporting purposes. The Company currently reports results in three segments: the Data Group, the Services Group and the Marketing Research Group. The Company continues to report administrative functions in the Corporate Activities Group.
     The Services Group consists of subsidiaries providing customer data management and brokerage services, email marketing services, and catalog marketing services.
     The Data Group consists of infoUSA National Accounts, OneSource, Database License, and the Small and Medium Sized Business Group. The Data Group also includes the compilation and verification costs of our proprietary databases, and corporate technology.
     The third segment is the Marketing Research Group, established in 2006 with the Company’s acquisition of Opinion Research Corporation. The Marketing Research Group provides customer surveys, opinion polling, and other market research services for business, through its Opinion Research division, and for government, through its Macro International division.
     The Data Group, Services Group and Marketing Research Group reflect actual net sales, order production costs, identifiable direct sales and marketing costs, and depreciation and amortization expense. The remaining indirect costs are presented in corporate activities.
     The Corporate Activities Group includes administrative functions of the Company and other income (expense) including interest expense, investment income and other identified gains (losses).
     Goodwill for the Data Group segment increased from $255.0 million at June 30, 2006 to $262.3 million at June 30, 2007. The increase in goodwill for the Data Group segment was the result of recording goodwill for the acquisition of expresscopy.com in June 2007.

Table of Contents

Goodwill for the Services Group segment increased to $65.4 million at June 30, 2007 from $63.1 million at June 30, 2006. The increase in goodwill for the Services Group segment is due to the acquisition of Digital Connexxions in October 2006 and Rubin Response in November 2006. Goodwill for the Marketing Research Group segment at June 30, 2007 was $61.6 million, which was the result of goodwill recorded for the acquisition of Opinion Research Corporation.

5. ACQUISITIONS
     On June 22, 2007, the Company acquired expresscopy.com, a provider of printing and mailing services that specializes in short-run customized direct mail pieces. The total purchase price was $8.0 million, excluding cash acquired of $0.1 million, and including acquisition related costs of $0.2 million. The purchase price for the acquisition has been preliminarily allocated to current assets of $0.6 million, property and equipment of $3.8 million, developed technology of $0.3 million, current liabilities of $1.8 million, other liabilities of $2.9 million, and goodwill of $7.8 million, which will all be deductible for income tax purposes.

     On June 1, 2006, the Company acquired Mokrynskidirect, a provider of list brokerage and list management services. The total purchase price, excluding cash acquired of $2.0 million, and including $0.1 million for acquisition costs, was $6.6 million.
     The Company accounted for these acquisitions under the purchase method of accounting and the operating results for each of these acquisitions are included in the accompanying consolidated financial statements from the respective acquisition dates.
     Assuming the acquisitions described above made during 2006 and 2007 had been acquired on January 1, 2006 and included in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations, unaudited pro forma consolidated net sales, net income and earnings per share would have been as follows:

6. SHARE–BASED PAYMENT ARRANGEMENTS
     Stock options have been issued under two primary types of plans. Options granted under the most current plan vest over an eight year period and expire ten years from date of grant. Options under this plan are granted at 125% of the stock’s fair market value on the date of grant. Options granted under the original plan have exercise prices at the stock’s fair market value on the date of grant, vest over a four year period at 25% per year, and expire five years from the date of grant.
     Compensation expense is recognized only for those options expected to vest, with forfeitures estimated based on our historical experience and future expectations. Prior to the adoption of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 123(R), Share-Based Payment (“SFAS 123R”), the effect of forfeitures on the pro forma expense amounts was recognized as the forfeitures occurred.
     As a result of adopting SFAS 123R, the impact to the quarter ended June 30, 2007 on income before income taxes and net income was $0.2 million and $0.1 million, respectively, and there was no impact on basic and diluted earnings per share for the same period. The impact to the six months ended June 30, 2007 on income before taxes and net income was $0.4 million, and $0.3 million, respectively, and there was no impact on basic and diluted earnings per share for the same period. In addition, prior to the adoption of SFAS 123R, we presented the tax benefit resulting from the exercise of stock options as operating cash inflows in the consolidated statements of cash flows. Upon the adoption of SFAS 123R, the excess tax benefits for those options are classified as financing cash inflows.
     The Company granted no stock options during the six-month periods ended June 30, 2007 or June 30, 2006.

As of June 30, 2007, the total unrecognized compensation cost related to nonvested stock option awards was approximately $1.5 million, which is expected to be recognized over a remaining weighted average period of 2.29 years. As of June 30, 2007, 4.4 million shares were available for additional option grants.
7. RESTRUCTURING CHARGES
     During the three months ended June 30, 2007, the Company recorded restructuring charges of $2.5 million. These costs related to workforce reductions as a part of the Company’s continuing strategy to reduce unnecessary costs and focus on core operations of $0.8 million, the restructuring of infoUSA National Accounts Division of $1.5 million, as well as the restructuring of the Hill-Donnelly printing facility of $0.2 million, which are both explained in more detail below. During the second quarter of 2007, the total workforce reduction charges included involuntary employee separation costs consisting of approximately 204 employees. During the six months ended June 30, 2007, the Company recorded restructuring costs totaling $5.2 million. These costs related to employee separation costs for total workforce reductions for approximately 244 employees, and included the costs associated with the restructuring of the infoUSA National Accounts Division of $3.2 million, and the Hill-Donnelly Division of $0.4 million, which are both explained in more detail below. The costs associated with the Company’s continuing strategy to reduce unnecessary costs for the six months ended June 30, 2007 totaled $1.6 million.
     In February 2007, the Company announced the closing of the Hill-Donnelly printing facility in Tampa, Florida. The facility was closed in July 2007 and the operations were moved to Omaha, Nebraska. The total amount incurred in connection with the restructuring was $0.2 million during the three months ended June 30, 2007, and $0.4 million during the six months ended June 30, 2007. These costs were for employee separation costs for workforce reductions charges for approximately 33 employees.
     The Company announced in December 2006 the plan to restructure the infoUSA National Accounts operations which includes the closing of the Ames, Iowa client service and technology facility, and the movement of client services teams and management personnel from the Woodcliff Lake, New Jersey facility to Omaha, Nebraska. Both of these are expected to be completed by December 31, 2007. The total amount expected to be incurred in connection with the restructuring will be in the range of $7.0 million to $8.0 million, which will include $3.0 million to $4.0 million for workforce reductions, and $3.0 million to $4.0 million for contract termination costs and other related costs. During the three months ended June 30, 2007, $1.5 million was incurred for these restructuring costs, which included $0.9 million for contract termination costs and other related costs and $0.6 million for workforce reductions charges for approximately 124 employees. During the six months ended June 30, 2007, $3.2 million was incurred for these restructuring costs, which included $1.5 million for contract termination costs and other related costs and $1.7 million for workforce reductions charges for approximately 124 employees.
     In December 2006, the Company acquired Opinion Research Corporation. In accordance with EITF 95-3 Recognition of Liabilities in Connection with a Purchase Business Combination, the Company has identified costs which, are related to the purchase of Opinion Research and have been accrued for as of June 30, 2007. The costs included in the accrual as of June 30, 2007 include costs for the closure of the Taiwan office, and the reduction of office space in both the Princeton, New Jersey and United Kingdom offices, as well as employee separation costs in each location.
     During the three months ended June 30, 2006, the Company recorded restructuring charges of $781 thousand for involuntary employee separation costs (severance) due to workforce reductions for 96 employees in administration, order production and sales. During the six months ended June 30, 2006, the Company recorded restructuring costs totaling $1.7 million due to workforce reductions for 173 employees.

10. INCOME TAXES
     In July 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued FASB Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes — an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109 (“FIN 48”). FIN 48 is an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes, and it seeks to reduce the diversity in practice associated with certain aspects of measurement and recognition in accounting for income taxes. In addition, FIN 48 provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, and accounting in interim periods and requires expanded disclosure with respect to the uncertainty in income taxes. FIN 48 was effective as of the beginning of our 2007 fiscal year. The cumulative effect, if any, of applying FIN 48 was to be reported as an adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings in the year of adoption. The Company did not record any cumulative effect adjustments to retained earnings as a result of adopting FIN 48.

Table of Contents

     Adoption on January 1, 2007 did not have a material effect on our consolidated financial condition or results of operation. We file numerous consolidated and separate income tax returns in the United States federal jurisdiction and in many state and foreign jurisdictions. With few exceptions, we are no longer subject to tax examinations for years before 2003.
     The Company had a total gross liability for unrecognized tax benefits of $7.5 million as of the adoption date, which is included in other liabilities. If recognized, $2.0 million of unrecognized tax benefits would impact the Company’s effective tax rate. Interest of $1.0 million has been reflected as a component of the total liability. The Company’s policy is to recognize potential accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in income tax expense.
     For the three-month period ended June 30, 2007, there were no material changes to the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits. The Company expects a decrease for uncertain tax positions during the next 12 months to be $5.1 million due to the expiration of the statute of limitations.
11. CONTINGENCIES
     In December 2001, the Company commenced a lawsuit against Naviant, Inc. (now known as BERJ, LLP) in the District Court for Douglas County, Nebraska for breach of a database license agreement. On July 12, 2007, the District Court entered an Amended Order of Judgment in the Company’s favor in the amount of $9.75 million, plus interest (the “Order”). The Company and Naviant have tentatively agreed not to pursue further appeals of the Order and have otherwise agreed in principle to settle this matter for approximately $11.2 million, less attorney fees and costs. The parties are currently negotiating the final terms of the settlement, and no final agreement has yet been signed. The Company cannot absolutely assure you that a final settlement will be reached based on the terms described above or at all. This contingent gain has not been recorded in the financial statements as of June 30, 2007.
     In February 2006, Cardinal Value Equity Partners, L.P., which beneficially owns 6.1% of our stock, filed a lawsuit in the Court of Chancery for the State of Delaware in and for New Castle County, against certain directors of the Company, and the Company. The lawsuit was filed as a derivative action on behalf of the Company and as a class action on behalf of Cardinal Value Equity Partners, L.P. and other stockholders. The lawsuit asserted claims for breach of fiduciary duty and sought an order requiring the Company to reinstate the special committee of directors. The special committee had been formed in June 2005 to consider a then-pending proposal by Vinod Gupta to acquire the shares of the Company not owned by him and was dissolved in August 2005 after Mr. Gupta withdrew that proposal. The lawsuit also sought an order awarding the Company and the class unspecified damages. In May 2006, Cardinal amended its complaint to add several new allegations and named two additional directors of the Company as defendants. The Company and the individual defendants filed a motion to dismiss the lawsuit. On October 17, 2006, the Court granted that motion and dismissed the lawsuit without prejudice. The Court’s order permitted Cardinal to file an amended complaint within 60 days of the order. Cardinal subsequently filed a Third Amended Complaint, alleging derivative claims of breach of fiduciary duty and violations of Delaware law. In January 2007, the Court granted the defendants’ motion to consolidate the action with a similar action filed by Dolphin Limited Partnership I, L.P. et al. as discussed in the following paragraph.
     In October 2006, Dolphin Limited Partnership I, L.P., Dolphin Financial Partners, L.L.C. and Robert Bartow filed a lawsuit in the Court of Chancery for the State of Delaware in and for New Castle County, against the current directors of the Company, two former directors of the Company, and the Company as a nominal defendant. The lawsuit was filed as a derivative action on behalf of the Company. The lawsuit asserts claims for breach of fiduciary duty and misuse of corporate assets, and seeks an order rescinding or declaring void certain transactions between the Company and Vinod Gupta, requiring the defendants to reimburse the Company for alleged damages and expenses relating to such transactions, and directing the Company to amend its Stockholder Rights Plan to include Mr. Gupta, his family and affiliates. The lawsuit also seeks an order awarding the Company unspecified damages. In January 2007, the Court ordered the case consolidated with a similar lawsuit filed by Cardinal Value Equity Partners, L.P. Pursuant to the consolidation order entered by the court, Dolphin and Cardinal have filed a consolidated complaint that essentially combines the claims that had been set forth in their respective individual complaints, described above. Defendants have moved to dismiss that complaint. The lawsuit is in the early stages and it is not yet possible to determine the ultimate outcome of this matter.
     We are subject to legal claims and assertions in the ordinary course of business. Although the outcomes of any other lawsuits and claims are uncertain, we do not believe that, individually or in the aggregate, any such lawsuits or claims will have a material effect on our business, financial conditions, results of operations or liquidity.

12. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
     The Company has retained the law firm of Robins, Kaplan, Miller & Ciresi L.L.P. to provide certain legal services. Elliot Kaplan, a director of the Company, is a named partner and former Chairman of the Executive Board of Robins, Kaplan, Miller & Ciresi L.L.P. The Company paid a total of $225 thousand and $205 thousand to this law firm during the second quarter of 2007 and 2006, respectively. During the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, the Company paid a total of $266 thousand and $327 thousand to this law firm, respectively.
13. DEBT
     On March 16, 2007, the Company amended its Senior Secured Credit Facility that was entered into on February 14, 2006. The amendment increased the Company’s outstanding Term Loan B by $75 million. Proceeds from this transaction were used to reduce amounts outstanding under the Company’s revolving credit facility. The pricing, principal amortization and maturity date of the expanded Term Loan B remain unchanged from the existing terms. On May 16, 2007, the Company further amended its Senior Secured Credit Facility (as amended on March 16, 2007 and May 16, 2007, the “Amended 2006 Credit Facility”) in order to (1) allow the mortgage loan transactions between the Company and Suburban Capital Markets, Inc. (“Suburban Capital”), described in further detail immediately below, and (2) waive any default of the Amended 2006 Credit Facility which might otherwise occur by reason of such transactions.
     At June 30, 2007, the term loan had a balance of $173.1 million, bearing an average interest rate of 7.36%. The revolving line of credit had a balance of $54.5 million, bearing an interest rate of 7.14%, and $120.5 million was available under the revolving line of credit. Substantially all of the assets of the Company are pledged as security under the terms of the Amended 2006 Credit Facility.
     On May 23, 2007, the Company entered into mortgage loan transactions with Suburban Capital. As part of the transactions, the Company transferred the titles to the Company’s headquarters in Ralston, Nebraska, and its data compilation facility in Papillion, Nebraska, to newly formed limited liability companies, and these properties will serve as collateral for the transactions. The Company entered into long-term lease agreements with these subsidiaries for the continued and sole use of the properties. The Company will serve as the guarantor of the debt under the provisions specified in the guaranty.
     The loans have a term of ten years and were priced with a fixed coupon rate of 6.082%. Payments will be interest only for the first five years; for years six through ten, payments will be comprised of principal and interest based upon a thirty year amortization. Proceeds from this transaction were approximately $41.1 million before fees and expenses. The proceeds were used to retire the existing debt for the Papillion and Ralston facilities of approximately $12.8 million and the remaining net proceeds of $26.7 million were used to reduce amounts outstanding under the Company’s revolving credit facility.
14. DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES
     In February 2007, the Company entered into a treasury lock agreement with a total notional amount of $43.5 million related to the above mentioned ten-year fixed rate debt issuance that was closed May 23, 2007. The treasury lock agreement has been designated as a cash flow hedge as it hedges the fluctuations in Treasury rates between the execution date of the treasury lock and the issuance of the fixed rate debt.
     Coincident with closing the mortgage transactions described above, the Company unwound the treasury lock agreement that it entered into previously to hedge fluctuations in treasury rates between the execution date of the treasury lock and the issuance of the mortgage debt described above. As a result of treasury rate movement, the Company received cash proceeds of $703,600 in settlement of the treasury lock. Substantially all of this amount will be deferred and amortized over the ten-year term of the mortgages as a reduction to interest expense. An ineffective portion of $38,415 was recorded to interest expense on the settlement date since the actual principal balance of the mortgage loans was $41.1 million versus the notional amount of $43.5 million under the treasury lock.
     The Company accounts for derivatives and hedging activities in accordance with SFAS No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Certain Hedging Activities, as amended, which requires entities to recognize all derivative instruments as either assets or liabilities in the balance sheet at their respective fair values. For derivatives designated as hedges, changes in the fair value are either offset against the change in fair value of the assets and liabilities through earnings, or recognized in accumulated other comprehensive income until the hedged item is recognized in earnings. As of June 30, 2007, $661 thousand of deferred gains on derivative instruments was included in other comprehensive income.
     The Company only enters into derivative contracts that it intends to designate as a hedge of a forecasted transaction or the variability of cash flows to be received or paid related to a recognized asset or liability (cash flow hedge). For all hedging relationships, the Company formally documents the hedging relationship and its risk-management objective and strategy for undertaking the hedge, the hedging instrument, the hedged item, the nature of the risk being hedged, how the hedging instrument’s effectiveness in offsetting the hedged risk will be assessed prospectively and retrospectively, and a description of the method of measuring ineffectiveness. The Company also formally assesses, both at the hedge’s inception and on an ongoing basis, whether the derivatives that are used in hedging

13


Table of Contents

transactions are highly effective in offsetting cash flows of hedged items. Changes in the fair value of a derivative that is highly effective and that is designated and qualifies as a cash-flow hedge are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income to the extent that the derivative is effective as a hedge, until earnings are affected by the variability in cash flows of the designated hedged item. The ineffective portion of the change in fair value of a derivative instrument that qualifies as a cash-flow hedge is reported in earnings.
15. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
     On July 27, 2007, the Company acquired substantially all of the assets of NWC Research, an Asia Pacific research company based in Australia. The total purchase price was $7.1 million. This acquisition will be accounted for under the purchase method of accounting, and accordingly, the operating results of NWC Research will be included in the Company’s financial statements going forward from the date of acquisition.
     On June 28, 2007, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”), by and among the Company, Knickerbocker Acquisition Corp., a New York corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (“Purchaser”), and Guideline, Inc., a New York corporation (“Guideline”). Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, on July 23, 2007, Purchaser commenced a cash tender offer to acquire (i) all of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of Guideline at a price per share of $1.35 and (ii) all of the issued and outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock of Guideline at a price equal to the liquidation preference of $1.50 per share and accrued dividends thereon (the “Offer”). Following the completion of the Offer, Purchaser will be merged with and into Guideline, with Guideline becoming a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (the “Merger”). The Offer and the Merger are subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions.

ITEM 2.
MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
     This discussion and analysis contains forward-looking statements, including without limitation statements in the discussion of comparative results of operations, accounting standards and liquidity and capital resources, within the meaning of Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) and Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, which are subject to the “safe harbor” created by those sections. Our actual future results could differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements. Some factors which could cause future actual results to differ materially from our recent results or those projected in the forward-looking statements are described in Item 1A “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006. We assume no obligation to update the forward-looking statements or such factors.
General
Overview
     In 2007, we reorganized our segments both for operational and reporting purposes. In 2007, we are reporting results in three segments: the Data Group, the Services Group, and the Marketing Research Group. We believe that by organizing all of our businesses that sell proprietary content into a single segment, we will more effectively deploy sales and marketing resources. The reorganization is also creating better opportunities for cross selling proprietary databases under one brand name. The 2006 prior year financial information contained in this report has been revised to reflect the new segments.
Initiatives in the first six months of 2007 included:
    Continuing to migrate to “subscription-based” from “one-time use” customers of our Internet-based services Salesgenie.com, Salesgenie.com/Lite, SalesLeadsUSA.info, Credit.net, PolkCityDirectories.com and infoUSACiti.com. Key to this is our effort to replace revenue from declining traditional direct marketing products and services with our on-line internet subscription services. Subscription services offer enhanced annual revenue per customer, assure greater multi-year revenue retention, and, most importantly, provide greater value to our customers by providing Internet access to our content and customer acquisition and retention software tools.
 
    Continuing improvements of the content and accuracy of our database. Adding more content, such as detailed business descriptions, more executives, hours of operation, credit cards accepted, UCC filings, URL address and other information.
 
    Expanding international business and executive databases by adding content for China and Australia.
 
    Expanding Yesmail’s presence, which is our e-mail technology Company, by opening a sales office in London.
 
    Increasing investments in merchandising, advertising and branding. The advertising campaigns include email, print, television, radio, direct mail, and search word advertising, as well as the use of white glove client services. Most notable advertisements included three commercials that aired during the Super Bowl, on February 4, 2007, featuring Salesgenie.com.
 
    Continuing the integration efforts of Opinion Research Corporation, acquired December 4, 2006, by facilitating a strategic cross-selling plan.
 
    Completion of the acquisition of expresscopy.com, a national market leader in short-run customized direct mail pieces such as direct response post cards, mailers, brochures, newsletters, flyers and business cards.
 
    Announcing the pending acquisition of Guideline, expected to close in the third quarter of 2007, and NWC Research which closed in July 2007. Both companies will expand our presence in the market research industry, both in the United States and in key markets around the world.
     On June 28, 2007, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”), by and among the Company, Knickerbocker Acquisition Corp., a New York corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (“Purchaser”), and Guideline, Inc., a New York corporation (“Guideline”). Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, on July 23, 2007, Purchaser commenced a cash tender offer to acquire (i) all of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of Guideline at a price per share of $1.35 and (ii) all of the issued and outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock of Guideline at a price equal to the liquidation preference of $1.50

per share and accrued dividends thereon (the “Offer”). Following the completion of the Offer, Purchaser will be merged with and into Guideline, with Guideline becoming a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (the “Merger”). The Offer and the Merger are subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions.
Sales & Marketing Strategy
     We employ several media options to grow and increase our market share including direct mail, print, outbound telemarketing, online keyword search engines, banner advertising, television, radio and e-mail marketing. In the first and second quarters of 2007, we continued these traditional forms of advertising as well as national and local radio and television campaigns to further build our brand name and drive revenue for our flagship online subscription product, Salesgenie.com. With the launch of Salesgenie.ca in 2006, Canadian radio and television advertising was added to our print and direct mail advertising. We continued to advertise aggressively to promote our valuable brand, including television advertisements in the first half of 2007 that aired during the Super Bowl, the NCAA Final Four Basketball Tournament and the Indianapolis 500 and that will air during the upcoming PGA Golf Championship.
     To monitor the success of our various marketing efforts, we have incorporated data gathering and tracking systems. These systems enable us to determine the type of advertising that best appeals to our target market so that we can invest future dollars in these programs and obtain a greater yield from our marketing. Additionally, through the use of our database tools, we are working to more efficiently determine the needs of our various client segments and tailor our services to their individual needs. With this system, we plan to strengthen relationships and support marketing campaigns to attract new clients.
Growth Strategy
     Our growth strategy continues to have multiple components. Our primary growth strategy is to improve our organic growth. Key to this is our effort to replace revenue from declining traditional direct marketing products and services with our on-line internet subscription services. Subscription services offer enhanced annual revenue per customer, assure greater multi-year revenue retention, and, most importantly, provide greater value to our customers by providing Internet access to our content and customer acquisition and retention software tools. Delivery of information via the Internet is the preferred method by our customers. We are investing in Internet technology to develop subscription-based new customer development services for businesses and sales people.
     We also intend to continue to grow through strategic acquisitions. We have grown through more than 30 strategic acquisitions in the last ten years. These acquisitions have enabled us to acquire the requisite critical mass to compete over the long term in the databases, direct marketing, e-mail marketing and market research industries. During 2006, we acquired Mokrynskidirect and Rubin Response Services Inc., which both provide list brokerage and list management services, Digital Connexxions, which provides e-mail marketing services, and Opinion Research Corporation, which complements our existing services with market research services. Our most recent acquisition, expresscopy.com, a provider of printing and mailing services that specializes in short-run customized direct mail pieces, will allow us to expand our existing data services. We will continue to use synergistic acquisitions to grow in the future.
     We also are focusing on international growth opportunities. We are now upgrading our international business databases and expanding our own compilation efforts. In late 2005, we opened a database center in India. We have also partnered with hundreds of content providers around the world. Our comprehensive international database includes information on 1.1 million large public and private non-U.S. companies in approximately 170 countries. There are over 8.6 million executives represented in our non-U.S. global database, which is constantly updated using 2,500 daily news sources to track changes like executive changes, mergers and acquisitions, and late breaking company news. We are also putting great emphasis on more comprehensive financial information and regulatory filings. Examples include SEC filings, annual reports, analyst and industry reports, and detailed corporate family structure.
     As we continue to enhance our international databases, we are aggressively pursuing high growth, emerging markets in Asia-Pacific, Western Europe, Australia, and South America. Using London as our international headquarters, we have sales offices in Hong Kong, New Delhi, Sydney, Singapore, and are in the process of opening sales offices in Mexico and South America.

Substantially all of the assets of the Company are pledged as security under the terms of the Amended 2006 Credit Facility.
     The Amended 2006 Credit Facility provides for grid-based interest pricing based upon our consolidated total leverage ratio. Interest rates for use of the revolving line of credit range from base rate plus 0.25% to 1.00% for base rate loans and LIBOR plus 1.25% to 2.00% for Eurodollar rate loans. Interest rates for the term loan range from base rate plus 0.75% to 1.00% for base rate loans and LIBOR plus 1.75% to 2.00% for Eurodollar rate loans. Subject to certain limitations set forth in the credit agreement, we may designate borrowings under the Amended 2006 Credit Facility as base rate loans or Eurodollar loans.
     We are subject to certain financial covenants in the Amended 2006 Credit Facility, including a minimum consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio, maximum consolidated total leverage ratio and minimum consolidated net worth. The fixed charge coverage ratio and leverage ratio financial covenants are based on EBITDA (“earnings before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization”), as adjusted, providing for adjustments to EBITDA for certain agreed upon items including non-operating gains (losses), other charges (gains), asset impairments, non-cash stock compensation expense and other items specified in the Amended 2006 Credit Facility. We were in compliance with all restrictive covenants of the Amended 2006 Credit Facility as of June 30, 2007.
     The Amended 2006 Credit Facility provides that we may pay cash dividends on our common stock or repurchase shares of our common stock provided that (a) before and after giving effect to such dividend or repurchase, no event of default exists or would exist under the credit agreement, (b) before and after giving effect to such dividend or repurchase, our consolidated total leverage ratio is not more than 2.75 to 1.0, and (c) the aggregate amount of all cash dividends and stock repurchases during any loan year does not exceed $20 million, except that there is no cap on the amount of cash dividends or stock repurchases so long as, after giving effect to the dividend or repurchase our consolidated total leverage ratio is not more than 2.00 to 1.0.
     On May 23, 2007, the Company entered into mortgage loan transactions with Suburban Capital. As part of the transactions, the Company transferred the titles to the Company’s headquarters in Ralston, Nebraska, and its data compilation facility in Papillion, Nebraska, to newly formed limited liability companies, and these properties will serve as collateral for the transactions. The Company entered into long-term lease agreements with these subsidiaries for the continued and sole use of the properties. The Company will serve as the guarantor of the debt under the provisions specified in the guaranty.
     The loans have a term of ten years and were priced with a fixed coupon rate of 6.082%. Payments will be interest only for the first five years; for years six through ten, payments will be comprised of principal and interest based upon a thirty year amortization. Proceeds from this transaction were approximately $41.1 million before fees and expenses. The proceeds were used to retire the existing debt for the Papillion and Ralston facilities of approximately $12.8 million and the remaining net proceeds of $26.7 million were used to reduce amounts outstanding under the Company’s revolving credit facility.
     Coincident with closing the mortgage transactions, the Company unwound the treasury lock agreement that it entered into previously to hedge fluctuations in treasury rates between the execution date of the treasury lock and the issuance of the mortgage debt described above. As a result of treasury rate movement, the Company received cash proceeds of $703,600 in settlement of the treasury lock. Substantially all of this amount will be deferred and amortized over the ten-year term of the mortgages as a reduction to interest expense. An ineffective portion of $38,415 was recorded to interest expense on the settlement date since the actual principal balance of the mortgage loans was $41.1 million versus the notional amount of $43.5 million under the treasury lock.
     As of June 30, 2007, we had a working capital deficit of $32.2 million. We believe that our existing sources of liquidity and cash generated from operations will satisfy our projected working capital, debt repayments and other cash requirements for at least the next 12 months. Acquisitions of other technologies, products or companies, or internal product development efforts may require us to obtain additional equity or debt financing, which may not be available or may be dilutive.
Selected Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows Information
     Net cash provided by operating activities during the six months ended June 30, 2007 totaled $23.2 million compared to $23.4 million for the same period in 2006.
     Net cash used in investing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2007 totaled $20.6 million, compared to $15.4 million for the same period in 2006. The current period outflow was mainly attributed to our spending of $10.1 million for additions of property and equipment, which included facility expansions and remodeling, and $2.8 million for software and database development costs. Additionally, we paid $8.1 million in business acquisitions, primarily for the acquisition of expresscopy.com in June 2007.

     Net cash used in financing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2007 totaled $2.5 million, compared to $5.1 million for the same period in 2006. The dividend payments, totaling $19.4 million, were paid on March 5, 2007, to shareholders of record as of the close of business on February 16, 2007. Total proceeds received from long-term debt during the six months ended June 30, 2007 were $149.6 million. Of these proceeds, $75.0 million was received as a result of the amendment to our Senior Secured Credit Facility on March 16, 2007. We further used these proceeds to reduce amounts outstanding under our revolving credit facility by $75.0 million. Additionally, proceeds from the Papillion and Ralston mortgage transactions were approximately $41.1 million before fees and expenses. These proceeds were used to retire the existing debt for the Papillion and Ralston facilities of approximately $12.8 million and the remaining proceeds of $26.7 million were used to reduce amounts outstanding under the Company’s revolving credit facility.
Selected Consolidated Balance Sheet Information
     Marketable securities decreased to $1.4 million at June 30, 2007 from $2.7 million at December 31, 2006. During the current year, we sold some investments as well as recorded an impairment of $0.2 million in a particular investment.
     Trade accounts receivable decreased to $63.5 million at June 30, 2007 from $76.6 million at December 31, 2006. The decrease is the result of collections of invoices that were invoiced in the fourth quarter of 2006 for several of our contractual customers. Additionally, the days sales outstanding (“DSO”) ratio for the six months ended June 30, 2007 was 37 days compared to 40 days for the same period in 2006.
     List brokerage trade accounts receivable decreased to $51.6 million at June 30, 2007 from $68.4 million at December 31, 2006. The decrease was the result of a decrease in list brokerage billings due to the seasonality of the business. This decrease is consistent with the decrease in list brokerage trade accounts payable.
     Unbilled services increased to $24.6 million at June 30, 2007 from $20.8 million at December 31, 2006. The increase was the result of an increase in services provided within the Macro International division in the Marketing Research Segment.
     Goodwill increased to $389.3 million at June 30, 2007 from $381.7 million at December 31, 2006. The increase was the result of the preliminary allocation of goodwill recorded for the acquisition of expresscopy.com in June 2007.
     Property and equipment, net increased to $67.6 million at June 30, 2007 from $61.2 million at December 31, 2006. The increase was primarily the result of facility expansions and remodeling, as well as hardware purchased to ensure we had sufficient resources available following the Super Bowl commercials that aired in February 2007. Additional hardware was also purchased to support our Yesmail e-mail technology platform.
     List brokerage trade accounts payable decreased to $45.9 million at June 30, 2007 from $62.0 million at December 31, 2006. The decrease was the result of an overall decrease in the list brokerage billings due to the seasonality of the business.
     Accrued expenses increased to $16.5 million at June 30, 2007 from $12.1 million at December 31, 2006. This increase was a result of the restructuring charges recorded during the quarter for the restructuring of the infoUSA National Accounts division and the Hill-Donnelly facility, as well as severance recorded within the Marketing Research segment, which was related to the acquisition of Opinion Research Corporation.
     Income taxes payable decreased to $1.1 million at June 30, 2007 from $4.7 million at December 31, 2006. This decrease was a result of 2006 federal income tax payments made during the first six months of 2007.
     Deferred revenue decreased to $70.3 million at June 30, 2007 from $77.9 million at December 31, 2006. This decrease was a result of revenue being recognized from fourth quarter 2006 invoices for various customers within the Data Group during the first six months of 2007.
     Our long-term debt increased to $274.0 million at June 30, 2007 from $255.3 million at December 31, 2006 due to a net increase in the credit facility and mortgage debt from proceeds received during the first six months of 2007.
     Other liabilities increased to $10.4 million at June 30, 2007 from $2.2 million at December 31, 2006. This increase was a result of $7.7 million in unrecognized tax benefits reclassified from deferred income taxes in accordance with FIN 48.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
     Other than rents associated with facility leasing arrangements, the Company does not engage in off-balance sheet financing activities.

Accounting Standards
     In July 2006, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes — an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109 (“FIN 48”). FIN 48 is an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes, and it seeks to reduce the diversity in practice associated with certain aspects of measurement and recognition in accounting for income taxes. In addition, FIN 48 provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, and accounting in interim periods and requires expanded disclosure with respect to the uncertainty in income taxes. FIN 48 was effective as of the beginning of our 2007 fiscal year. The cumulative effect, if any, of applying FIN 48 is to be reported as an adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings in the year of adoption. Adoption on January 1, 2007 did not have a material effect on our consolidated financial condition or results of operation. See Note 10 to Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for further detail regarding the adoption of this accounting standard.
     In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements (“SFAS 157”). SFAS 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and requires enhanced disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS 157 requires companies to disclose the fair value of their financial instruments according to a fair value hierarchy as defined in the standard. Additionally, companies are required to provide enhanced disclosure regarding financial instruments in one of the categories (level 3), including a reconciliation of the beginning and ending balances separately for each major category of assets and liabilities. SFAS 157 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, and interim periods within those fiscal years. We believe that the adoption of SFAS 157 will not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
     In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities — Including an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115 (“SFAS 159”). SFAS 159 permits entities to elect to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value. Unrealized gains and losses on items for which the fair value option has been elected will be recognized in earnings at each subsequent reporting date. SFAS 159 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. We are currently assessing the impact of SFAS 159 on our consolidated financial statements.
Inflation
     We do not believe that the rate of inflation has had a material effect on our operating results. However, inflation could adversely affect our future operating results if it were to result in a substantial weakening economic condition.

ITEM 3.
QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
     We have identified interest rate risk as our primary market risk exposure. We are exposed to significant future earnings and cash flow exposures from significant changes in interest rates as nearly all of our debt is at variable rates. If necessary, we could refinance our debt to fixed rates or utilize interest rate protection agreements to manage interest rate risk. For example, each 100 basis point increase (decrease) in the interest rate would cause an annual increase (decrease) in interest expense of approximately $2.5 million. At June 30, 2007, the fair value of our long-term debt is based on quoted market prices at the reporting date or is estimated by discounting the future cash flows of each instrument at rates currently offered to us for similar debt instruments of comparable maturities. At June 30, 2007, we had long-term debt with a carrying value of $280.1 million and estimated fair value of approximately the same amount. We have no significant operations subject to risks of foreign currency fluctuations. See Note 14 to Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for information regarding the Company’s accounting for derivative instruments and hedging activities entered into during the six months ended June 30, 2007.
ITEM 4.
CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
(a) Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures
     The Company’s management, with the participation of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) or 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act as of the end of the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2007. Based on this evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that as of June 30, 2007 the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective.
(b) Changes in internal control over financial reporting
     During the quarter ended June 30, 2007, there were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

PART II
OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1.
LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
     In December 2001, the Company commenced a lawsuit against Naviant, Inc. (now known as BERJ, LLP) in the District Court for Douglas County, Nebraska for breach of a database license agreement. On July 12, 2007, the District Court entered an Amended Order of Judgment in the Company’s favor in the amount of $9.75 million, plus interest (the “Order”). The Company and Naviant have tentatively agreed not to pursue further appeals of the Order and have otherwise agreed in principle to settle this matter for approximately $11.2 million, less attorney fees and costs. The parties are currently negotiating the final terms of the settlement, and no final agreement has yet been signed. The Company cannot absolutely assure you that a final settlement will be reached based on the terms described above or at all. This contingent gain has not been recorded in the financial statements as of June 30, 2007.
     In February 2006, Cardinal Value Equity Partners, L.P., which beneficially owns 6.1% of our stock, filed a lawsuit in the Court of Chancery for the State of Delaware in and for New Castle County, against certain directors of the Company, and the Company. The lawsuit was filed as a derivative action on behalf of the Company and as a class action on behalf of Cardinal Value Equity Partners, L.P. and other stockholders. The lawsuit asserted claims for breach of fiduciary duty and sought an order requiring the Company to reinstate the special committee of directors. The special committee had been formed in June 2005 to consider a then-pending proposal by Vinod Gupta to acquire the shares of the Company not owned by him and was dissolved in August 2005 after Mr. Gupta withdrew that proposal. The lawsuit also sought an order awarding the Company and the class unspecified damages. In May 2006, Cardinal amended its complaint to add several new allegations and named two additional directors of the Company as defendants. The Company and the individual defendants filed a motion to dismiss the lawsuit. On October 17, 2006, the Court granted that motion and dismissed the lawsuit without prejudice. The Court’s order permitted Cardinal to file an amended complaint within 60 days of the order. Cardinal subsequently filed a Third Amended Complaint, alleging derivative claims of breach of fiduciary duty and violations of Delaware law. In January 2007, the Court granted the defendants’ motion to consolidate the action with a similar action filed by Dolphin Limited Partnership I, L.P. et al. as discussed in the following paragraph.
     In October 2006, Dolphin Limited Partnership I, L.P., Dolphin Financial Partners, L.L.C. and Robert Bartow filed a lawsuit in the Court of Chancery for the State of Delaware in and for New Castle County, against the current directors of the Company, two former directors of the Company, and the Company as a nominal defendant. The lawsuit was filed as a derivative action on behalf of the Company. The lawsuit asserts claims for breach of fiduciary duty and misuse of corporate assets, and seeks an order rescinding or declaring void certain transactions between the Company and Vinod Gupta, requiring the defendants to reimburse the Company for alleged damages and expenses relating to such transactions, and directing the Company to amend its Stockholder Rights Plan to include Mr. Gupta, his family and affiliates. The lawsuit also seeks an order awarding the Company unspecified damages. In January 2007, the Court ordered the case consolidated with a similar lawsuit filed by Cardinal Value Equity Partners, L.P. Pursuant to the consolidation order entered by the court, Dolphin and Cardinal have filed a consolidated complaint that essentially combines the claims that had been set forth in their respective individual complaints, described above. Defendants have moved to dismiss that complaint. The lawsuit is in the early stages and it is not yet possible to determine the ultimate outcome of this matter.
     We are subject to legal claims and assertions in the ordinary course of business. Although the outcomes of any other lawsuits and claims are uncertain, we do not believe that, individually or in the aggregate, any such lawsuits or claims will have a material effect on our business, financial conditions, results of operations or liquidity.
