PITNEY BOWES INC.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited; table amounts in thousands of dollars, unless otherwise noted)

1. Description of Business and Basis of Presentation

Pitney Bowes Inc. and its subsidiaries (we, us, our or the Company) is a global technology company offering innovative products and solutions that enable commerce in the areas of customer information management, location intelligence, customer engagement, shipping and mailing, and global ecommerce. 

We have prepared the accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) for interim financial information and the instructions to Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In addition, the December 31, 2014 Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet data was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by GAAP. In management's opinion, all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, considered necessary to fairly state our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented have been included. Operating results for the periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for any other interim period or for the year ending December 31, 2015.

These statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report to Stockholders on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014 (2014 Annual Report).

New Accounting Pronouncements

In April 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standard Update (ASU) 2015-03, Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs, which requires debt issuance costs to be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the associated debt liability. This standard is effective for fiscal periods beginning after December 15, 2015. Early adoption is permitted. We do not believe this standard will have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements or disclosures.

In January 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-01, Income Statement - Extraordinary and Unusual Items, which removes the concept of extraordinary items, thereby eliminating the need for companies to assess transactions for extraordinary treatment. The standard retained the presentation and disclosure requirements for items that are unusual in nature and/or infrequent in occurrence. The standard is effective for fiscal periods beginning after December 15, 2015. Early adoption is permitted. We do not believe this standard will have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements or disclosures.

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The standard requires companies to recognize revenue for the transfer of goods and services to customers in amounts that reflect the consideration the company expects to receive in exchange for those goods and services. The standard will also result in enhanced disclosures about revenue. This standard is currently effective for fiscal periods beginning after December 15, 2016; however, in April 2015, the FASB proposed a one-year deferral of the effective date. The standard can be adopted either retrospectively or as a cumulative-effect adjustment and early adoption is prohibited. We are currently assessing the impact this standard will have on our consolidated financial statements and disclosures.

2. Segment Information

Our business is organized around three distinct sets of solutions -- Small and Medium Business (SMB) Solutions, Enterprise Business Solutions and Digital Commerce Solutions (DCS). The principal products and services of each of our reportable segments are as follows:

Small & Medium Business Solutions:

North America Mailing: Includes the revenue and related expenses from the sale, rental, financing and servicing of mailing equipment and supplies for small and medium businesses to efficiently create mail and evidence postage in the U.S. and Canada.

International Mailing: Includes the revenue and related expenses from the sale, rental, financing and servicing of mailing equipment and supplies for small and medium businesses to efficiently create mail and evidence postage in areas outside the U.S. and Canada.

Enterprise Business Solutions:

Production Mail: Includes the worldwide revenue and related expenses from the sale of production mail inserting and sortation equipment, high-speed production print systems, supplies and related support services to large enterprise clients to process inbound and outbound mail.

Presort Services: Includes revenue and related expenses from presort mail services for our large enterprise clients to qualify large mail volumes for postal worksharing discounts.

Digital Commerce Solutions:

Digital Commerce Solutions: Includes the worldwide revenue and related expenses from (i) the sale of non-equipment-based mailing, customer information engagement, location intelligence and customer engagement solutions and related support services; (ii) shipping and global ecommerce solutions; and (iii) direct marketing services for targeted clients.

We determine segment earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) by deducting the related costs and expenses attributable to the segment from segment revenue. Segment EBIT excludes interest, taxes, general corporate expenses, restructuring charges and other items, which are not allocated to a particular business segment. Management uses segment EBIT to measure profitability and performance at the segment level. Management believes segment EBIT provides a useful measure of our operating performance and underlying trends of the businesses. Segment EBIT may not be indicative of our overall consolidated performance and therefore, should be read in conjunction with our consolidated results of operations.

Revenue and EBIT by business segment is presented below:

6. Finance Assets

Finance Receivables

Finance receivables are comprised of sales-type lease receivables and unsecured revolving loan receivables. Sales-type lease receivables are generally due in monthly, quarterly or semi-annual installments over periods ranging from three to five years. Loan receivables arise primarily from financing services offered to our customers for postage and supplies. Loan receivables are generally due each month; however, customers may rollover outstanding balances. Interest is recognized on loan receivables using the effective interest method and related annual fees are initially deferred and recognized ratably over the annual period covered. Customer acquisition costs are expensed as incurred.

Finance receivables at March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014 consisted of the following:

Allowance for Credit Losses and Aging of Receivables

We estimate our finance receivable risks and provide an allowance for credit losses accordingly. We evaluate the adequacy of the allowance for credit losses based on historical loss experience, the nature and volume of our portfolios, adverse situations that may affect a client's ability to pay, prevailing economic conditions and our ability to manage the collateral and make adjustments to the allowance as necessary. This evaluation is inherently subjective and actual results may differ significantly from estimated reserves.

We establish credit approval limits based on the credit quality of the client and the type of equipment financed. Our policy is to discontinue revenue recognition for lease receivables that are more than 120 days past due and for unsecured loan receivables that are more than 90 days past due. We resume revenue recognition when payments reduce the account balance aging to 60 days or less past due. Finance receivables deemed uncollectible are written off against the allowance after all collection efforts have been exhausted and management deems the account to be uncollectible. We believe that our finance receivable credit risk is limited because of our large number of clients, small account balances for most of our clients, and geographic and industry diversification.

Credit Quality

The extension of credit and management of credit lines to new and existing clients uses a combination of an automated credit score, where available, and a detailed manual review of the client’s financial condition and, when applicable, payment history. Once credit is granted, the payment performance of the client is managed through automated collections processes and is supplemented with direct follow up should an account become delinquent. We have robust automated collections and extensive portfolio management processes. The portfolio management processes ensure that our global strategy is executed, collection resources are allocated appropriately and enhanced tools and processes are implemented as needed.

We use a third party to score the majority of the North America portfolio on a quarterly basis using a commercial credit score. We do not use a third party to score our international portfolio because the cost to do so is prohibitive, given that it is a localized process and there is no single credit score model that covers all countries.

The table below shows the North America portfolio at March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014 by relative risk class (low, medium, high) based on the relative scores of the accounts within each class. The relative scores are determined based on a number of factors, including the company type, ownership structure, payment history and financial information. A fourth class is shown for accounts that are not scored. Absence of a score is not indicative of the credit quality of the account. The degree of risk, as defined by the third party, refers to the relative risk that an account in the next 12 month period may become delinquent.

•	Low risk accounts are companies with very good credit scores and are considered to approximate the top 30% of all commercial borrowers.

•	Medium risk accounts are companies with average to good credit scores and are considered to approximate the middle 40% of all commercial borrowers.

•	High risk accounts are companies with poor credit scores, are delinquent or are at risk of becoming delinquent and are considered to approximate the bottom 30% of all commercial borrowers.

8. Fair Value Measurements and Derivative Instruments

We measure certain financial assets and liabilities at fair value on a recurring basis. Fair value is a market-based measure considered from the perspective of a market participant rather than an entity-specific measure. An entity is required to classify certain assets and liabilities measured at fair value based on the following fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value:

Level 1 –	Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities.

Level 2 –	Quoted prices for identical assets and liabilities in markets that are not active, quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.

Level 3 –	Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity, may be derived from internally developed methodologies based on management’s best estimate of fair value and that are significant to the fair value of the asset or liability.

The following tables show, by level within the fair value hierarchy, our financial assets and liabilities that are accounted for at fair value on a recurring basis at March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014. Financial assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Our assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement requires judgment and may affect its placement within the fair value hierarchy.

Investment Securities

The valuation of investment securities is based on the market approach using inputs that are observable, or can be corroborated by observable data, in an active marketplace. The following information relates to our classification into the fair value hierarchy:

•

Money market funds / commercial paper: Money market funds typically invest in government securities, certificates of deposit, commercial paper and other highly liquid, low-risk securities. Money market funds are principally used for overnight deposits and are classified as Level 1 when unadjusted quoted prices in active markets are available and as Level 2 when they are not actively traded on an exchange. Direct investments in commercial paper are not listed on an exchange in an active market and are classified as Level 2.

•	Equity securities: Equity securities are comprised of mutual funds investing in U.S. and foreign common stock. These mutual funds are classified as Level 2 as they are not separately listed on an exchange.

•

Commingled fixed income securities: Mutual funds that invest in a variety of fixed income securities including securities of the U.S. government and its agencies, corporate debt, mortgage-backed securities and asset-backed securities. The value of the funds is based on the market value of the underlying investments owned by each fund, minus its liabilities, divided by the number of shares outstanding, as reported by the fund manager. These commingled funds are not listed on an exchange in an active market and are classified as Level 2.

•

U.S. Government, federal agencies and municipalities: Securities are classified as Level 1 where active, high volume trades for identical securities exist. Valuation adjustments are not applied to these securities. Securities valued using quoted market prices for similar securities or benchmarking model derived prices to quoted market prices and trade data for identical or comparable securities are classified as Level 2.

•	Corporate notes and bonds: Corporate notes and bonds are valued using recently executed transactions, market price quotations where observable, or bond spreads. The spread data used are for the same maturity as the security. These securities are classified as Level 2.

•	Mortgage-backed / asset-backed securities: These securities are valued based on external pricing indices. When external index pricing is not observable, these securities are valued based on external price/spread data. These securities are classified as Level 2.

Available-For-Sale Securities

Certain investment securities are classified as available-for-sale and recorded at fair value in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments and other assets depending on the type of investment and maturity. Unrealized holding gains and losses are recorded, net of tax, in accumulated other comprehensive income (AOCI).

Available-for-sale securities at March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014 consisted of the following:

	March 31, 2015
	Amortized cost				Gross unrealized gains				Gross unrealized losses				Estimated fair value
U.S. Government, federal agencies and municipalities	$	133,904			$	3,342			$	(452	)		$	136,794
Corporate notes and bonds	64,169				2,224				(85		)		66,308
Mortgage-backed / asset-backed securities	162,841				3,147				(745		)		165,243
Total	$	360,914			$	8,713			$	(1,282	)		$	368,345

	December 31, 2014
	Amortized cost				Gross unrealized gains				Gross unrealized losses				Estimated fair value
U.S. Government, federal agencies and municipalities	$	135,839			$	2,905			$	(764	)		$	137,980
Corporate notes and bonds	66,170				1,569				(291		)		67,448
Mortgage-backed / asset-backed securities	155,330				2,362				(1,078		)		156,614
Total	$	357,339			$	6,836			$	(2,133	)		$	362,042

Investment securities that were in a loss position for 12 or more continuous months at March 31, 2015 had aggregate unrealized holding losses of $1 million and an estimated fair value of $35 million. Investment securities that were in a loss position for less than 12 continuous months at March 31, 2015 had aggregate unrealized holding losses of less than $1 million and an estimated fair value of $76 million.

Investment securities that were in a loss position for 12 or more continuous months at December 31, 2014 had aggregate unrealized holding losses of $1 million and an estimated fair value of $42 million. Investment securities that were in a loss position for less than 12 continuous months at December 31, 2014 had aggregate unrealized holding losses of $1 million and an estimated fair value of $88 million.

We have not recognized an other-than-temporary impairment on any of the investment securities in an unrealized loss position because we do not intend to sell these securities, it is more likely than not that we will not be required to sell these securities before recovery of the unrealized losses and we expect to receive the contractual principal and interest on these investment securities.

Scheduled maturities of available-for-sale securities at March 31, 2015 were as follows:

	Amortized cost				Estimated fair value
Within 1 year	$	62,578			$	62,641
After 1 year through 5 years	61,094				62,380
After 5 years through 10 years	63,198				65,364
After 10 years	174,044				177,960
Total	$	360,914			$	368,345

The expected payments on mortgage-backed and asset-backed securities may not coincide with their contractual maturities as borrowers have the right to prepay obligations with or without prepayment penalties.

We have not experienced any significant write-offs in our investment portfolio. The majority of our mortgage-backed securities are either guaranteed or supported by the U.S. Government. We have no investments in inactive markets that would warrant a possible change in our pricing methods or classification within the fair value hierarchy. Further, we have no investments in auction rate securities.

Derivative Instruments

In the normal course of business, we are exposed to the impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates. We limit these risks by following established risk management policies and procedures, including the use of derivatives. We use derivative instruments to limit the effects of exchange rate fluctuations on financial results and manage the related cost of debt. We do not use derivatives for trading or speculative purposes. We record our derivative instruments at fair value and the accounting for changes in the fair value depends on the intended use of the derivative, the resulting designation and the effectiveness of the instrument in offsetting the risk exposure it is designed to hedge.

The valuation of foreign exchange derivatives is based on the market approach using observable market inputs, such as foreign currency spot and forward rates and yield curves. As required by the fair value measurements guidance, we also incorporate counterparty credit risk and our credit risk into the fair value measurement of our derivative assets and liabilities, respectively. We derive credit risk from observable data in the credit default swap market. We have not seen a material change in the creditworthiness of those banks acting as derivative counterparties.

The fair value of derivative instruments at March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014 was as follows:

Designation of Derivatives		Balance Sheet Location		March 31, 2015				December 31, 2014
Derivatives designated as hedging instruments
Foreign exchange contracts		Other current assets and prepayments		$	1,144			$	762
Derivatives not designated as hedging instruments
Foreign exchange contracts		Other current assets and prepayments		1,690				624
		Accounts payable and accrued liabilities:		(4,705		)		(2,988		)
		Total derivative assets		$	2,834			$	1,386
		Total derivative liabilities		(4,705		)		(2,988		)
		Total net derivative liabilities		$	(1,871	)		$	(1,602	)

Foreign Exchange Contracts

We enter into foreign exchange contracts to mitigate the currency risk associated with the anticipated purchase of inventory between affiliates and from third parties. These contracts are designated as cash flow hedges. The effective portion of the gain or loss on cash flow hedges is included in AOCI in the period that the change in fair value occurs and is reclassified to earnings in the period that the hedged item is recorded in earnings. At March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, we had outstanding contracts associated with these anticipated transactions with notional amounts of $17 million and $18 million, respectively.

The amounts included in AOCI at March 31, 2015 will be recognized in earnings within the next 12 months. No amount of ineffectiveness was recorded in earnings for these designated cash flow hedges.

The following represents the results of cash flow hedging relationships for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014:

		Three Months Ended March 31,
		Derivative Gain (Loss) Recognized in AOCI (Effective Portion)								Location of Gain (Loss) (Effective Portion)		Gain (Loss) Reclassified from AOCI to Earnings (Effective Portion)

We also enter into foreign exchange contracts to minimize the impact of exchange rate fluctuations on short-term intercompany loans and related interest that are denominated in a foreign currency. The revaluation of the intercompany loans and interest and the mark-to-market adjustment on the derivatives are both recorded in earnings. All outstanding contracts at March 31, 2015 mature within 12 months.

The following represents the results of our non-designated derivative instruments for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014:

				Three Months Ended March 31,

Foreign exchange contracts		Selling, general and administrative expense		$	(208	)		$	(682	)

Credit-Risk-Related Contingent Features

Certain derivative instruments contain credit-risk-related contingent features that would require us to post collateral based on a combination of our long-term senior unsecured debt ratings and the net fair value of our derivatives. At March 31, 2015, the maximum amount of collateral that we would have been required to post had the credit-risk-related contingent features been triggered was $3 million.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Our financial instruments include cash and cash equivalents, investment securities, accounts receivable, loan receivables, derivative instruments, accounts payable and debt. The carrying value for cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, loans receivable, and accounts payable approximate fair value because of the short maturity of these instruments.

The fair value of our debt is estimated based on recently executed transactions and market price quotations. These inputs used to determine the fair value of our debt were classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy. The carrying value and estimated fair value of our debt at March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014 were as follows:

	March 31, 2015				December 31, 2014
Carrying value	$	3,075,231			$	3,252,006

The majority of the remaining restructuring reserves are expected to be paid over the next 12 to 24 months; however, due to certain international labor laws and long-term lease agreements, some payments will extend beyond 24 months. We expect to fund these payments from cash flows from operations.

Through March 31, 2015 and March 31, 2014, contributions to our U.S. pension plans were $3 million and $10 million, respectively, and contributions to our foreign plans were $9 million and $12 million, respectively. Nonpension postretirement benefit plan contributions were $6 million and $7 million through March 31, 2015 and March 31, 2014, respectively.

12. Income Taxes

The effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014 was 37.3% and 14.7%, respectively. The effective tax rate for 2015 includes a $3 million charge from the write-off of deferred tax assets associated with the expiration of out-of-the-money vested stock options and the vesting of restricted stock units previously granted to our employees. The effective tax rate for 2014 includes a net incremental tax benefit associated with the early extinguishment of debt and a benefit of $6 million from the resolution of tax examinations.

As is the case with other large corporations, our tax returns are examined each year by tax authorities in the U.S., other countries and local jurisdictions in which we have operations. The Internal Revenue Service examinations of tax years prior to 2011 are closed to audit. Other than the pending application of legal principles to specific issues arising in earlier years, only post-2009 Canadian tax years are subject to examination. Other significant tax filings subject to examination include various post-2004 U.S. state and local, post-2007 German, and post-2010 French and U.K. tax filings. We have other less significant tax filings currently under examination or subject to examination.

13. Noncontrolling Interests (Preferred Stockholders’ Equity in Subsidiaries)

Pitney Bowes International Holdings, Inc. (PBIH), a subsidiary of the Company, has 300,000 shares, or $300 million, of outstanding perpetual voting preferred stock (PBIH Preferred Stock) held by certain institutional investors. The holders of PBIH Preferred Stock are entitled as a group to 25% of the combined voting power of all classes of capital stock of PBIH. All outstanding common stock of PBIH, representing the remaining 75% of the combined voting power of all classes of capital stock, is owned directly or indirectly by the Company. The PBIH Preferred Stock is entitled to cumulative dividends at a rate of 6.125% through April 30, 2016. Commencing October 30, 2016, the PBIH Preferred Stock is redeemable, in whole or in part, at the option of PBIH. If the PBIH Preferred Stock is not redeemed in whole on October 30, 2016, the dividend rate increases 50% and will increase 50% every six months thereafter. No dividends were in arrears at March 31, 2015 or December 31, 2014.

14. Commitments and Contingencies

In the ordinary course of business, we are routinely defendants in, or party to a number of pending and threatened legal actions. These may involve litigation by or against us relating to, among other things, contractual rights under vendor, insurance or other contracts; intellectual property or patent rights; equipment, service, payment or other disputes with clients; or disputes with employees. Some of these actions may be brought as a purported class action on behalf of a purported class of employees, customers or others. In management's opinion, the potential liability, if any, that may result from these actions, either individually or collectively, is not reasonably expected to

have a material effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows. However, as litigation is inherently unpredictable, there can be no assurances in this regard.

In December 2013, we received a Civil Investigative Demand (CID) from the Department of Justice (DOJ) pursuant to the False Claims Act requesting documents and information relating to compliance with certain postal regulatory requirements in our Presort Services business. We have provided information to the DOJ in response to letter requests and the CID, and we are in ongoing discussions with the DOJ about the potential resolution of this matter. Given the current stage of this inquiry, we cannot yet predict the ultimate outcome of this matter or its impact, if any, on our business, financial condition or results of operations.

17. Subsequent Events

On May 5, 2015, we entered into a definitive agreement to acquire Borderfree, Inc. (Borderfree). Under the terms of the definitive agreement, we will commence a tender offer for all outstanding common shares of Borderfree at $14 per share in cash, or approximately $395 million in the aggregate, net of expected cash and investments on Borderfree’s balance sheet at the time of closing. Borderfree provides cross-border ecommerce solutions through a proprietary technology and services platform that enables retailers in the United States and United Kingdom to transact with consumers around the world. The transaction is subject to the completion of customary conditions, and is expected to close in the second quarter of 2015. Once completed, we expect Borderfree will operate as a wholly owned subsidiary within our Digital Commerce Solutions segment.

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with our condensed consolidated financial statements contained in this report and in our 2014 Annual Report. All table amounts are shown in thousands of dollars, unless otherwise noted.

Overview

First Quarter 2015 Results

For the first quarter of 2015, revenue decreased 5% to $891 million compared to $937 million in the first quarter of 2014. Net income from continuing operations and earnings per diluted share were $80 million and $0.40, respectively, compared to $42 million and $0.21, respectively, in 2014. The increase was driven by lower selling, general and administrative expenses, the one-time costs associated with the early repayment of debt in the first quarter of 2014 and lower restructuring charges. These items were more than offset by the impact of lower revenue and a higher effective tax rate.

26

---

We generated cash from operations of $104 million. We borrowed $100 million of short-term debt and used these proceeds to redeem $275 million of long-term debt. In addition, we funded capital investments of $44 million and paid dividends of $38 million. At March 31, 2015, cash and cash equivalents were $872 million compared to $1,079 million at December 31, 2014.

Our first quarter 2015 results were negatively impacted by the exit of non-core product lines in Norway and the transition in certain European countries to a dealer network in the third quarter of 2014 (Divested Businesses) and foreign currency translation. Foreign currency translation reduced revenue by 4% and Divested Businesses impacted revenue by 1% in the quarter.

Excluding the impacts of Divested Businesses and foreign currency translation, equipment sales declined 6% compared to the prior year quarter due to lower mailing equipment sales in North America as a result of declining mail volumes and clients extending existing leases rather than purchasing new equipment. In addition, sales were lower in France and Germany due to economic conditions and temporary disruptions caused by the initial implementation of our go-to-market strategy in these countries. These declines were partially offset by higher sales of production mail inserter equipment. Support services revenue declined 4% and rentals revenue declined 5% compared to the prior year quarter due to fewer mailing machines in service, a shift to lower cost, less featured mailing machines and lower maintenance revenue on production mail equipment as some in-house mailers moved their mail processing to third-party service bureaus who service some of their own equipment. Supplies revenue decreased 1% primarily due to a decline in the number of installed meters in North America and the temporary disruptions caused by the initial implementation of our go-to-market strategy in France and Germany. Business services revenue increased 11% due to growth in our global ecommerce solutions, Presort Services operations and our marketing services solutions.

Digital Commerce Solutions (DCS) revenue grew 9% due to growth in our global ecommerce solutions, our shipping solutions and our marketing services solutions. Enterprise Business Solutions revenue increased 3% due to increased volumes and operational efficiencies in Presort Services. Small and Medium Business Solutions (SMB) revenue declined 5%. In North America, revenue was impacted by the continuing decline in installed meters, a shift to lower cost, less featured machines and clients extending existing leases rather than purchasing new equipment. Internationally, revenue declined due to macroeconomic conditions in Europe and temporary disruptions caused by the initial implementation of our go-to-market strategy in France and Germany.

Outlook

The U.S. dollar continues to strengthen against other currencies. A strong U.S. dollar could adversely affect our reported revenues and profitability, both from a translation perspective as well as a competitive perspective, as the cost of our international competitors’ products and solutions improves relative to our products and solutions. A strengthening dollar could also affect the demand for U.S. goods sold to consumers in other countries through our global ecommerce solutions.

We expect revenue and profitability in our DCS segment to be driven by continued demand for our global ecommerce solutions, licensing demand for our software solutions and demand for our shipping solutions driven by new client acquisitions and expanded services provided to existing clients.

Within the Enterprise Business Solutions group, we expect continued revenue and profitability growth in our Presort Services segment due to client expansion, higher processed mail volumes and operational efficiencies. Within our Production Mail segment, we anticipate that revenue growth could be challenged by the uncertain macroeconomic environment in Europe and declining services revenue.

Within the SMB group, we expect revenue will continue to be impacted by the uncertain macroeconomic environment in Europe, temporary distractions from the initial implementation of our go-to-market strategy in Europe and the impact of Divested Businesses. In North America, we expect revenue to be impacted by declining mail volumes, extensions of existing leases rather than purchases of new equipment and a shift to lower cost, less featured machines.

Total cost of revenue	$	390,525			$	409,866			43.8	%		43.7	%

Equipment sales

Equipment sales revenue decreased 12% in the quarter to $166 million compared to the prior year quarter. Of this amount, 5% was due to the unfavorable impact of foreign currency translation and 1% was caused by Divested Businesses. Equipment sales decreased in North America primarily due to declining mail volumes and an increase in the number of clients extending existing leases rather than purchasing new equipment. Equipment sales also declined in Europe due to economic conditions and temporary disruptions caused by the initial implementation of our go-to-market strategy in France and Germany. Partially offsetting these declines was an increase in the number of installations of inserter equipment in the quarter. Cost of equipment sales as a percentage of revenue increased to 45.2% compared to 43.7% in the prior year quarter primarily due to the impact on revenue of the temporary disruptions caused by the initial implementation of our go-to-market strategy in France and Germany.

Supplies

Supplies revenue decreased 8% in the quarter to $73 million compared to the prior year quarter. Of this amount, 6% was due to the unfavorable impact of foreign currency translation and 1% was caused by Divested Businesses. Supplies sales declined primarily due to a decline in the number of installed meters in North America and the temporary disruptions caused by the initial implementation of our go-to-market strategy in France and Germany. These decreases were partially offset by higher supplies sales due to the growth in production print equipment in 2014. Cost of supplies as a percentage of revenue increased to 30.9% compared to 30.4% in the prior year quarter primarily due to the impact on revenue of the temporary disruptions caused by the initial implementation of our go-to-market strategy in France and Germany and a greater mix of lower margin supplies sales.

Software

Software revenue decreased 6% in the quarter to $86 million compared to the prior year quarter; however, excluding the impact of currency translation, software revenue was flat to the prior year quarter. Licensing revenue increased 9% but was offset by lower professional

services and maintenance revenue. Cost of software as a percentage of revenue for the quarter increased to 34.6% compared to 32.9% in the prior year quarter primarily due to product mix.

 

Rentals

Rentals revenue decreased 8% in the quarter to $114 million compared to the prior year quarter. Of this amount, 3% was due to the unfavorable impact of foreign currency translation. Rentals revenue decreased due to a reduction in the number of installed meters and shift to lower cost, less featured machines in North America and lower rentals revenue in France. Cost of rentals as a percentage of revenue for the quarter decreased to 18.2% compared to 20.6% in the prior year quarter primarily due to cost savings in North America.

Financing

Financing revenue decreased 4% in the quarter to $106 million compared to the prior year quarter. Excluding the impact of currency translation, financing revenue decreased 1% primarily due to the impact of declining equipment sales in prior periods. We allocate a portion of our total cost of borrowing to financing interest expense. In computing financing interest expense, we assume a 10:1 debt to equity leverage ratio and apply our overall effective interest rate to the average outstanding finance receivables. Financing interest expense as a percentage of financing revenue for the quarter was 17.8% compared to 17.9% in the prior year quarter.

Support Services

Support services revenue decreased 12% in the quarter to $140 million compared to the prior year quarter. Of this amount, 5% was due to the unfavorable impact of foreign currency translation and 3% was caused by Divested Businesses. Support services revenue decreased primarily due to a decline in the number of mailing machines in service, a shift to lower cost, less featured machines, and lower maintenance revenue on production mail equipment as some in-house mailers moved their mail processing to third-party service bureaus who service some of their own equipment. Cost of support services as a percentage of revenue for the quarter decreased to 59.9% compared to 62.5% in the prior year quarter primarily due to expense reductions and productivity initiatives.

Business Services

Business services revenue increased 11% in the quarter to $206 million compared to the prior year quarter. This increase was due to growth in our global ecommerce solutions, including the recognition of deferred cross-border delivery fees, increased volumes of mail processed in our Presort Services operations and new business development in our marketing services solutions. Cost of business services as a percentage of revenue for the quarter decreased to 68.0% compared to 69.5% in the prior year quarter primarily due to the higher revenue and operational efficiencies in Presort Services.

   

Selling, general and administrative (SG&A)

SG&A expense decreased 10% in the quarter to $315 million compared to the prior year quarter. As a percentage of revenue, SG&A expense declined to 35.3% for the quarter compared to 37.5% for the prior year quarter, primarily due to lower costs as a result of our focus on operational excellence and the benefits of productivity initiatives.

We determine segment EBIT by deducting the related costs and expenses attributable to the segment from segment revenue. Segment EBIT excludes interest, taxes, general corporate expenses, restructuring charges and other items, which are not allocated to a particular business segment. Management uses segment EBIT to measure profitability and performance at the segment level. Management believes segment EBIT provides a useful measure of our operating performance and underlying trends of the businesses. Segment EBIT may not be indicative of our overall consolidated performance and therefore, should be read in conjunction with our consolidated results of operations. See Note 2 to the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for a reconciliation of segment EBIT to income from continuing operations before income taxes.

Small & Medium Business Solutions

North America Mailing

North America Mailing revenue decreased 5% in the quarter to $362 million compared to the prior year quarter. Equipment sales decreased 9% primarily due to an increase in the number of clients extending existing leases rather than purchasing new equipment. Supplies sales declined 3%, rentals revenue declined 5% and support services declined 8% primarily due to the continuing decline in installed meters and a shift to lower cost, less featured machines. Foreign currency translation had a 1% unfavorable impact on revenue.

Despite the decline in revenue, EBIT increased 2% in the quarter to $164 million compared to the prior year quarter primarily due to benefits from the go-to-market implementation and ongoing cost reduction initiatives.

International Mailing

International Mailing revenue decreased 24% in the quarter to $116 million compared to the prior year quarter. Of this amount, 12% was due to the unfavorable impact of foreign currency translation and 4% was caused by Divested Businesses. Equipment sales declined 14% primarily due to economic conditions and the temporary disruptions caused by the initial implementation of our go-to-market strategy in France and Germany. Supplies revenue declined 3% primarily due to a reduction in the number of installed meters and temporary disruptions from the initial implementation of our go-to-market strategy in France and Germany. In the U.K., where our go-to-market strategy was fully implemented in January 2015, equipment sales and supplies sales increased over the prior year quarter 8% and 2%, respectively.

EBIT decreased 53% in the quarter to $12 million compared to the prior year quarter primarily due to lower revenue as a result of temporary disruptions caused by the initial implementation of our go-to-market strategy in France and Germany. Foreign currency translation also had an adverse impact on EBIT of 11% for the quarter.

Enterprise Business Solutions

Production Mail

Production Mail revenue decreased 5% in the quarter to $100 million compared to the prior year quarter; however, excluding the impact of currency translation and Divested Businesses, revenue increased 1% compared to the prior year quarter. Equipment sales increased 9% primarily due to higher installations of inserter equipment and supplies sales increased 18% due to the growth in production print equipment in 2014. However, these increases were partially offset by a 4% decline in support services revenue as some in-house mailers moved their mail processing to third-party service bureaus who service some of their own equipment. EBIT increased 17% in the quarter to $9 million compared to the prior year quarter, primarily due to a favorable mix of higher margin inserter equipment sales and ongoing cost reduction initiatives.

Presort Services

Presort Services revenue increased 4% in the quarter to $122 million compared to the prior year quarter primarily due to increased volumes of mail processed and operational efficiencies. EBIT increased 15% in the quarter to $27 million compared to the prior year quarter primarily due to the increase in revenue, improved operational productivity and lower transportation costs.

Digital Commerce Solutions

DCS revenue increased 6% in the quarter to $192 million compared to the prior year quarter despite a 3% adverse impact from foreign currency translation. The increase in revenue was due to growth in our global ecommerce solutions, new business development in our marketing services solutions and growth in our shipping solutions. EBIT increased 67% in the quarter to $16 million compared to the prior year quarter primarily due to the increase in marketing services solutions revenue, lower costs in our software business and the recognition of $6 million of deferred cross-border delivery fees.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

We believe that existing cash and investments, cash generated from operations and borrowing capacity under our commercial paper program will be sufficient to support our current cash needs, including discretionary uses such as capital investments, dividends and share repurchases. Cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments were $913 million at March 31, 2015 and $1,111 million at December 31, 2014. We continuously review our credit profile through published credit ratings and the credit default swap market. We also monitor the creditworthiness of those banks acting as derivative counterparties, depository banks or credit providers.

Cash and cash equivalents held by our foreign subsidiaries were $465 million at March 31, 2015 and $470 million at December 31, 2014. Cash and cash equivalents held by our foreign subsidiaries are generally used to support the liquidity needs of these subsidiaries. Most of these amounts could be repatriated to the U.S. but would be subject to additional taxes. Repatriation of some foreign balances is restricted by local laws.

Cash Flow Summary

Changes in cash and cash equivalents for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014 was as follows:

	2015				2014				Change
Net cash provided by operating activities	$	104			$	106			$	(2	)
Net cash used in investing activities	(64		)		(59		)		(5		)
Net cash used in financing activities	(212		)		(50		)		(162		)
Effect of exchange rate changes on cash and cash equivalents	(35		)		(1		)		(34		)
Change in cash and cash equivalents	$	(207	)		$	(5	)		$	(203	)

Cash flows from operations for the three months ended March 31, 2015 decreased $2 million compared to the three months ended March 31, 2014. Cash flow from operations in 2015 benefited from higher income, lower interest payments and the prior year cash payments related to debt extinguishments. However, these benefits were more than offset by higher payments of accounts payable and accrued liabilities, inventory purchases and taxes.

Cash flows used in investing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2015 increased $5 million compared to the three months ended March 31, 2014. The timing of investment activity improved cash flow by $20 million, but was offset by higher capital expenditures of $14 million primarily related to the ongoing investments in a global ERP system and higher withdrawals from customer deposit accounts of $5 million.

Cash flows used in financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2015 increased $162 million compared to the three months ended March 31, 2014 primarily due to the repayment of $275 million of debt, partially offset by an increase in short-term commercial paper borrowings of $100 million.

Financings and Capitalization

We are a Well-Known Seasoned Issuer with the SEC, which allows us to issue debt securities, preferred stock, preference stock, common stock, purchase contracts, depositary shares, warrants and units in an expedited fashion. We have a commercial paper program that is an important source of liquidity for us and a committed credit facility of $1 billion to support our commercial paper issuances. The credit facility expires in January 2020. We have not drawn upon the credit facility.

During the first quarter of 2015, the average daily amount of commercial paper borrowings was $4 million at a weighted-average interest rate of 0.53% and the maximum amount outstanding at any time during the quarter was $100 million. At March 31, 2015, there was $100 million of outstanding commercial paper borrowings at an effective interest rate of 0.54%. There were no commercial paper borrowings during the first quarter of 2014.

During the first quarter of 2015, we repaid the $275 million, 5% notes that matured in March.

During the first quarter of 2014, we redeemed an aggregate $500 million of the 5.75% Notes due 2017 and the 5.25% Notes due 2037 through a cash tender offer (the 2014 Tender Offer). Holders who validly tendered their notes received the principal amount, all accrued and unpaid interest and a premium payment. We incurred expenses of $62 million, consisting of the call premium, the write-off of unamortized costs and bank transaction fees.

During the first quarter of 2014, we also issued $500 million of 4.625% fixed rate 10-year notes. Interest is payable semiannually, in March and September, and the notes mature in March 2024, but may be redeemed, at any time, in whole or in part, at our option. If the notes are redeemed prior to December 15, 2023, the redemption price will be equal to the sum of 100% of the principal amount, accrued and unpaid interest and a make-whole payment. Net proceeds of $493 million were used to fund the 2014 Tender Offer.

Dividends

Dividends paid to our common stockholders were $38 million ($0.1875 per share) for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014. Each quarter, our Board of Directors considers our recent and projected earnings and other capital needs and priorities in deciding whether to approve the payment, as well as the amount, of a dividend. There are no material restrictions on our ability to declare dividends.
