CoreLogic Announces Sale of First Advantage Businesses


Executing on its strategy to focus on core businesses

SANTA ANA, Calif., Dec. 23, 2010 - CoreLogic (NYSE: CLGX), a leading provider of information, analytics and business services, today announced an agreement to sell its Employer Services and Litigation Support businesses. The businesses will be acquired by Symphony Technology Group (STG), and will operate under the brand name First Advantage. CoreLogic will retain the remaining businesses that had been part of the former First Advantage Corporation that were acquired in November 2009.

In August of this year, CoreLogic announced its intention to pursue the sale of these businesses. The execution of an agreement with STG is the culmination of that process. The sale price of $265M is an all-cash transaction.

"The successful sale of these businesses represents a significant milestone for CoreLogic," said Anand Nallathambi, president and CEO of CoreLogic. "These are valuable businesses with good growth potential, but we determined that they do not have a long-term strategic fit within CoreLogic. We are pleased with the outcome of the sales process and are confident that STG will build on the market-leading position held by these businesses. As previously stated, we expect to redeploy cash received from this transaction towards acquisitions of businesses with greater strategic relevance to fortify our market presence and leadership."

"First Advantage has a long history of providing a comprehensive suite of solutions to customers in its core markets," said Bill Chisholm, managing director with STG. "We are delighted to partner with the management team to build a leading HR and legal information- and technology-enabled services company that will provide its clients with the industry's best customer experience."

Macquarie Capital advised CoreLogic in the sale process for the First Advantage businesses.
