FIRST DATA CORPORATION
MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (Continued)
Pro Forma Financial Information
The following Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations reflects the
consolidated results of operations of the Company for the year ended December 31, 2007 as if the merger had
occurred on January 1, 2007. The pro forma statement is derived from the application of pro forma adjustments
to the historical Statement of Operations of the predecessor period January 1, 2007 to September 24, 2007 and
the successor period from September 25, 2007 to December 31, 2007. The pro forma Condensed Consolidated
Statement of Operations should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements, related notes
and other financial information included elsewhere in this Form 10-K.
The pro forma adjustments are described in the notes to the pro forma Condensed Consolidated Statement of
Operations and are based on available information and assumptions that management believes are reasonable.
The pro forma adjustments and results of operations in the successor period are based on the final allocation of
the purchase price and final valuation of intangible and fixed assets and reflect the modification of certain of the
debt from variable to fixed interest rates. The pro forma Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations is not
necessarily indicative of the future results of operations of the successor Company or results of operations of the
successor Company that would have actually occurred had the merger been consummated as of January 1, 2007.
