NOTE 1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Moody's is a provider of (i) credit ratings, (ii) credit, capital markets and economic research, data and analytical tools, (iii) software solutions and related risk management services, (iv) quantitative credit risk measures, financial services training and certification services and (v) outsourced research and analytical services to institutional customers. Moody's has two reportable segments: MIS and MA.

MIS, the credit rating agency, publishes credit ratings on a wide range of debt obligations and the entities that issue such obligations in markets worldwide. Revenue is derived from the originators and issuers of such transactions who use MIS ratings in the distribution of their debt issues to investors.

The MA segment, which includes all of the Company's non-rating commercial activities, develops a wide range of products and services that support financial analysis and risk management activities of institutional participants in global financial markets. Within its Research, Data and Analytics business, MA distributes research and data developed by MIS as part of its ratings process, including in-depth research on major debt issuers, industry studies and commentary on topical credit-related events. The RD&A business also produces economic research as well as data and analytical tools such as quantitative credit risk scores. It also provides fixed income pricing in the Asia-Pacific region. Within its Enterprise Risk Solutions business, MA provides software solutions as well as related risk management services. The Professional Services business provides outsourced research and analytical services along with financial training and certification programs.

These interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and should be read in conjunction with the Company's consolidated financial statements and related notes in the Company's 2012 annual report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on February 26, 2013. The results of interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year or any subsequent period. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation of financial position, results of operations and cash flows at the dates and for the periods presented have been included. The year-end consolidated balance sheet data was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.

STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

NOTE 2. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

       Presented below is a summary of the stock-based compensation cost and associated tax benefit included in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations:

 Three Months Ended Six Months Ended
 June 30, June 30,
 2013 2012 2013 2012
Stock-based compensation cost$ 16.1 $ 14.9 $ 33.3 $ 29.9
Tax benefit$ 5.8 $ 5.4 $ 12.0 $ 10.8

During the first six months of 2013, the Company granted 0.5 million employee stock options, which had a weighted average grant date fair value of $17.58 per share based on the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The Company also granted 1.3 million shares of restricted stock in the first six months of 2013, which had a weighted average grant date fair value of $46.51 per share and generally vest ratably over a four-year period. Additionally, the Company granted approximately 0.3 million shares of performance-based awards whereby the number of shares that ultimately vest are based on the achievement of certain non-market based performance metrics of the Company over a three-year period. The weighted average grant date fair value of these awards was $44.07 per share.

       The following weighted average assumptions were used in determining the fair value for options granted in 2013:

Expected dividend yield 1.72%
Expected stock volatility 42.6%
Risk-free interest rate 1.53%
Expected holding period7.2 years
Grant date fair value$ 17.58

Unrecognized compensation expense at June 30, 2013 was $14.6 million and $94.8 million for stock options and unvested restricted stock, respectively, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 1.4 years and 1.8 years, respectively. Additionally, there was $18.8 million of unrecognized compensation expense relating to the aforementioned non-market based performance-based awards, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 1.0 years.

INCOME TAXES
INCOME TAXES

NOTE 3. INCOME TAXES

Moody's effective tax rate was 32.2% and 33.6% for the three months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively and 30.5% and 32.9% for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. The decrease in the effective tax rate in both periods is primarily due to U.S. tax legislation enacted in the first quarter of 2013 which retroactively extended certain favorable tax benefits to the 2012 tax year and lower taxes on foreign income. The decrease in the ETR for the six months ended June 30, 2013 also reflects the tax effect of the litigation settlement in the first quarter of 2013.

The Company classifies interest related to UTPs in interest expense, net in its consolidated statements of operations. Penalties, if incurred, would be recognized in other non-operating (expense) income, net. The Company had an overall increase in its UTPs of $17.4 million ($14.7 million net of federal tax benefit) during the second quarter of 2013 and an overall increase in its UTPs during the first six months of 2013 of $28.0 million ($23.0 million net of federal tax benefits).

Moody's Corporation and subsidiaries are subject to U.S. federal income tax as well as income tax in various state, local and foreign jurisdictions. The Company's U.S. federal income tax returns for the years 2008 through 2010 are under examination and its 2011 return remains open to examination. The Company's New York State and New York City income tax returns for 2011 remain open to examination. Income tax filings in the U.K. for 2007 through 2010 are under examination and 2011 remains open to examination.

For ongoing audits, it is possible the balance of UTBs could decrease in the next twelve months as a result of the settlement of these audits, which might involve the payment of additional taxes, the adjustment of certain deferred taxes and/or the recognition of tax benefits. It is also possible that new issues might be raised by tax authorities which could necessitate increases to the balance of UTBs. As the Company is unable to predict the timing or outcome of these audits, it is unable to estimate the amount of changes to the balance of UTBs at this time. However, the Company believes that it has adequately provided for its financial exposure relating to all open tax years by tax jurisdiction in accordance with the applicable provisions of Topic 740 of the ASC regarding UTBs.

 The following table shows the amount the Company paid for income taxes:

   Six Months Ended

       The calculation of diluted EPS requires certain assumptions regarding the use of both cash proceeds and assumed proceeds that would be received upon the exercise of stock options and vesting of restricted stock outstanding as of June 30, 2013 and 2012. These assumed proceeds include Excess Tax Benefits and any unrecognized compensation of the awards.

SHORT-TERM INVESTMENTS
SHORT-TERM INVESTMENTS

NOTE 5. SHORT-TERM INVESTMENTS

       Short-term investments are securities with maturities greater than 90 days at the time of purchase that are available for operations in the next twelve months. The short-term investments, primarily consisting of certificates of deposit, are classified as held-to-maturity and therefore are carried at cost. The remaining contractual maturities of the short-term investments were one month to twelve months and one month to 11 months as of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively. Interest and dividends are recorded into income when earned.

DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES
DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES

NOTE 6. DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES

       The Company is exposed to global market risks, including risks from changes in FX rates and changes in interest rates. Accordingly, the Company uses derivatives in certain instances to manage the aforementioned financial exposures that occur in the normal course of business. The Company does not hold or issue derivatives for speculative purposes.

Interest Rate Swaps

       In the fourth quarter of 2010, the Company entered into interest rate swaps with a total notional amount of $300 million to convert the fixed interest rate on the Series 2005-1 Notes to a floating interest rate based on the 3-month LIBOR. The purpose of this hedge was to mitigate the risk associated with changes in the fair value of the Series 2005-1 Notes, thus the Company has designated these swaps as fair value hedges. The fair value of the swaps is adjusted quarterly with a corresponding adjustment to the carrying value of the Series 2005-1 Notes. The changes in the fair value of the hedges and the underlying hedged item generally offset and the net cash settlements on the swaps are recorded each period within interest income (expense), net, in the Company's consolidated statement of operations.

       In May 2008, the Company entered into interest rate swaps with a total notional amount of $150 million to protect against fluctuations in the LIBOR-based variable interest rate on the 2008 Term Loan, further described in Note 12. These interest rate swaps were designated as cash flow hedges. Accordingly, changes in the fair value of these swaps were recorded to other comprehensive income or loss, to the extent that the hedge is effective, and such amounts were reclassified to earnings in the same period during which the hedged transaction affects income. At June 30, 2013, the 2008 Term Loan has been repaid in full in accordance with the payment terms set forth in Note 12. Accordingly, all amounts in accumulated other comprehensive income have been reclassified to interest income (expense), net in the Company's consolidated statements of operations.

Foreign Exchange Forwards

       The Company also enters into foreign exchange forwards to mitigate the change in fair value on certain assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the subsidiary's functional currency. These forward contracts are not designated as hedging instruments under the applicable sections of Topic 815 of the ASC. Accordingly, changes in the fair value of these contracts are recognized immediately in other non-operating (expense) income, net in the Company's consolidated statements of operations along with the FX gain or loss recognized on the assets and liabilities denominated in a currency other than the subsidiary's functional currency. These contracts have expiration dates at various times through September 2013.

The following table summarizes the notional amounts of the Company's outstanding foreign exchange forwards:

 June 30, December 31,
 2013 2012
Notional amount of currency pair:     
Contracts to purchase USD with euros$ 25.7 $ 34.3
Contracts to sell USD for euros$ 49.6 $ 48.4
Contracts to purchase USD with GBP$ 3.5 $ 2.1
Contracts to sell USD for GBP$ 0.1 $ 1.7
Contracts to purchase USD with other foreign currencies$ 7.0 $ 6.7
Contracts to sell USD for other foreign currencies$ 11.4 $ 5.1
Contracts to purchase euros with other foreign currencies 14.2  14.4
Contracts to purchase euros with GBP 2.0  -
Contracts to sell euros for GBP 18.3  8.9

Net Investment Hedges

The Company enters into foreign currency forward contracts to hedge the exposure related to non-U.S. dollar net investments in certain foreign subsidiaries against adverse changes in foreign exchange rates. These forward contracts are designated as hedging instruments under the applicable sections of Topic 815 of the ASC. Hedge effectiveness is assessed based on the overall changes in the fair value of the forward contracts on a pre-tax basis. For hedges that meet the effectiveness requirements, any change in the fair value for the hedge is recorded in the currency translation adjustment component of AOCI. Any change in the fair value of these hedges that is the result of ineffectiveness would be recognized immediately in other non-operating (expense) income in the Company's consolidated statement of operations. These outstanding contracts expire in September 2013.

The following table summarizes the notional amounts of the Company's outstanding foreign exchange forward contracts that are designated as net investment hedges:

 June 30, December 31,
 2013 2012
Notional amount of currency pair:

The 2012 additions/adjustments for the MA segment in the table above relate to the acquisitions of Copal and B&H in the fourth quarter of 2011.

The 2012 impairment charge in the table above relates to goodwill in the FSTC reporting unit within MA. The Company evaluates its goodwill for potential impairment annually on July 31 or more frequently if impairment indicators arise throughout the year. Projected operating results for the FSTC reporting unit at December 31, 2012 were lower than projections utilized for the annual impairment analysis performed at July 31, 2012 reflecting a contraction in spending for training and certification services for many individuals and global financial institutions amidst macroeconomic uncertainties. Based on this trend and overall macroeconomic uncertainties at the time, the Company lowered its cash flow forecasts for this reporting unit in the fourth quarter of 2012. Accordingly, the Company performed another goodwill impairment assessment as of December 31, 2012 which resulted in an impairment charge of $12.2 million. The fair value of the FSTC reporting unit utilized in the impairment assessment was estimated using a discounted cash flow methodology and comparable public company and precedent transaction multiples. There were no impairments to goodwill in the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012. However, a failure of the FSTC reporting unit to meet its financial projections could result in further goodwill impairment.

       Acquired intangible assets and related amortization consisted of:

 2013 2012 2013 2012
Amortization expense$ 6.9 $ 7.1 $ 14.0 $ 14.4

Estimated future amortization expense for acquired intangible assets subject to amortization is as follows:

2014  28.9
2015  24.1
2016  17.8
2017  13.1
Thereafter  101.3

Amortizable intangible assets are reviewed for recoverability whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. If the estimated undiscounted future cash flows are lower than the carrying amount of the related asset, a loss is recognized for the difference between the carrying amount and the estimated fair value of the asset. There were no impairments to intangible assets during the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012.

The losses included in earnings in the table above are recorded within operating expenses in the Company's consolidated statements of operations. These losses relate to contingent consideration obligations outstanding at June 30, 2013.

The $10.5 million of contingent consideration obligations as of June 30, 2013 is classified in other liabilities within the Company's consolidated balance sheet.

The following are descriptions of the methodologies utilized by the Company to estimate the fair value of its derivative contracts and contingent consideration obligations:

Derivatives:

In determining the fair value of the derivative contracts in the table above, the Company utilizes industry standard valuation models. Where applicable, these models project future cash flows and discount the future amounts to a present value using spot rates, forward points, currency volatilities, interest rates as well as the risk of non-performance of the Company and the counterparties with whom it has derivative contracts. The Company established strict counterparty credit guidelines and only enters into transactions with financial institutions that adhere to these guidelines. Accordingly, the risk of counterparty default is deemed to be minimal.

Contingent consideration:

At June 30, 2013, the Company has contingent consideration obligations related to the acquisitions of CSI and Copal which are based on certain financial and non-financial metrics set forth in the acquisition agreements. These obligations are measured using Level 3 inputs as defined in the ASC. The Company recorded the obligations for these contingent consideration arrangements on the date of each respective acquisition based on management's best estimates of the achievement of the metrics and the value of the obligations are adjusted quarterly.

The contingent consideration obligation for CSI is based on the achievement of a certain contractual milestone by January 2016. The Company utilizes a discounted cash flow methodology to value this obligation. The future expected cash flow for this obligation is discounted using an interest rate available to borrowers with similar credit risk profiles to that of the Company. The most significant unobservable input involved in the measurement of this obligation is the probability that the milestone will be reached by January 2016. At June 30, 2013, the Company expects that this milestone will be reached by the aforementioned date.

There are several contingent consideration obligations relating to the acquisition of Copal. A portion of the contingent cash payments are based on revenue and EBITDA growth for certain of the Copal entities. This growth is calculated by comparing revenue and EBITDA in the year immediately prior to the exercise of the put/call option to acquire the remaining 33% ownership interest of Copal Partners Limited which the Company does not currently own, to revenue and EBITDA in Copal's fiscal year ended March 31, 2011. There are no limitations set forth in the acquisition agreement relating to the amount payable under this contingent consideration arrangement. Payments under this arrangement, if any, would be made upon the exercise of the aforementioned put/call option. Other contingent cash payments are based on the achievement of revenue targets for Copal's fiscal year ended March 31, 2012 and 2013, with certain limits on the amount of revenue that can be applied to the calculation of these contingent payments. Each of these contingent payments had a maximum payout of $2.5 million and have been settled as of June 30, 2013. The Company utilizes discounted cash flow methodologies to value these obligations. The expected future cash flows for these obligations are discounted using a risk-free interest rate plus a credit spread based on the option adjusted spread of the Company's publicly traded debt as of the valuation date. The most significant unobservable input involved in the measurement of these obligations is the projected future financial results of the applicable Copal entities. Also, for the portion of the obligations which are dependent upon the exercise of the call/put option, the Company has utilized a Monte Carlo simulation model to estimate when the option will be exercised, thus triggering the payment of contingent consideration.

A significant increase or decrease in any of the aforementioned significant unobservable inputs related to the fair value measurement of the Company's contingent consideration obligations would result in a significantly higher or lower reported fair value for these obligations.

Redeemable Noncontrolling Interest:

In connection with the acquisition of Copal, the Company and the non-controlling shareholders entered into a put/call option agreement whereby the Company has the option to purchase from the non-controlling shareholders and the non-controlling shareholders have the option to sell to the Company the remaining 33% ownership interest of Copal Partners Limited based on a strike price to be calculated on pre-determined formulas using a combination of revenue and EBITDA multiples when exercised. The value of the estimated put/call option strike price on the date of acquisition was based on a Monte Carlo simulation model. This model contemplated multiple scenarios which simulated certain of Copal's revenue, EBITDA margins and equity values to estimate the present value of the expected strike price of the option. The option is subject to a minimum exercise price of $46 million. There is no limit as to the maximum amount of the strike price on the put/call option.

The following table shows changes in the redeemable noncontrolling interest related to the acquisition of Copal:
