    AFFINION GROUP, INC. ANNOUNCES RESULTS FOR THE SECOND QUARTERENDED JUNE 30, 2013

    LOYALTY AND INTERNATIONAL APPROACHING HALF A BILLION IN LTM REVENUEADJUSTED EBITDA OF $84.6 MILLION UP VERSUS SECOND QUARTER 2012

    STAMFORD, Conn., August 1, 2013 Affinion Group, Inc. (Affinion or the Company), the global leader in enablingcompanies to connect and engage with their customers, thereby creating rewarding relationships and enhancing brand loyalty,announced today the financial results for the three month period ended June 30, 2013 (second quarter) for both Affinionand its parent company, Affinion Group Holdings, Inc. (Holdings).

    We continue to see very solid demand for our Loyalty and International products and services, and through the first sixmonths of the year, revenue in these two businesses increased by nearly 15% as compared to the first six months of 2012,said Todd Siegel, Affinions Chief Executive Officer. This is our second consecutive year of achieving such first-half,double digit revenue growth in these key areas, and we were pleased to also be able to increase the combined SegmentEBITDA of these increasingly important business lines by nearly 25% over the first half of 2012.

    In terms of our overall business, Adjusted EBITDA increased slightly this quarter, as the benefits of our highly variablecost structure continue to provide us with a way of mitigating the impacts to our Membership business from the ongoing

    reduction in new campaign activities with large domestic financial institutions, continued Siegel. For instance, the majorityof our reduced marketing and commissions expense this quarter, relative to the second quarter of 2012, is due to lowercommissions, a trend we expect will continue over the second half of the year due to our migration toward acquisitionchannels that carry lower, or in certain cases, no commission rates.

    However, over the remainder of the year, we also expect our level of marketing spend will increase from current levelsas we further diversify our domestic operations and grow our International business, and, as a result, we continue to believethat our 2013 Adjusted EBITDA will be down approximately 10% from full year 2012 levels.

    Results Highlights

    Notes: Adjusted EBITDA as referred to above excludes any pro forma impact of acquisitions. See Tables 6 and 11 for acomplete description of Adjusted EBITDA and the related reconciliations to GAAP measures. On November 14, 2012,

    Affinion completed the acquisitions of Back-Up, a Turkish provider of concierge and other assistance services and a sister

    company, Travel, a Turkish travel agency. Back-Ups and Travels business results are reported as part of the CompanysInternational products segment.

    Second Quarter Net Revenues

    More information:James Hart, 203.956.8746 (O) 203.339.2578 (M)

    Net revenues for the second quarter of 2013 were $336.1 million as compared to $377.6 million for the secondquarter of 2012, reflecting a decrease of 11.0%, with declines in North American products net revenues more thanoffsetting growth in International products net revenues.

    North American products net revenues decreased due principally to Membership, which continued to decline due tothe previously disclosed reduction in new marketing campaigns with the Companys large North Americanfinancial institution partners as well as lower revenue from the Webloyalty and Prospectiv acquisitions.

    International products net revenues increased primarily from new retail revenues, traditional membership revenuesand contributions from the acquisition in Turkey.

    Second Quarter Operating Results

    Segment Commentary

    North America:

    Membership products revenue decreased $52.2 million, from $189.5 million to $137.3 million, or 27.5%, as compared to thesecond quarter of 2012. Net Membership revenues decreased primarily due to lower volumes in connection with the ongoingreduction in new marketing campaigns with large domestic financial institution partners, a change in deal structure termswith a large client from traditional retail to fee-for-service, the anticipated attrition in volumes contributed from the domesticportion of the subscriber base acquired from Webloyalty, and lower revenue from Prospectiv. Membership SegmentEBITDA increased $2.7 million, from $31.7 million to $34.4 million, or 8.5%, as compared to the second quarter of 2012, asthe impact of the lower revenues was more than offset by a reduction in variable expenses, including marketing andcommissions and operating costs, and reduced general and administrative costs.

    Insurance and Package products revenue decreased $3.1 million, from $75.3 million to $72.2 million, or 4.1%, as comparedto the second quarter of 2012 due primarily to lower Package revenue as a result of lower volumes of Package subscribers.Insurance and Package Segment EBITDA decreased $13.1 million, from $19.2 million to $6.1 million, or 68%, as comparedto the second quarter of 2012, due primarily to the increase in general and administrative costs in connection with themigration to a new insurance carrier. Excluding this one item, Insurance and Package Segment EBITDA would haveincreased 8.9% as lower marketing and commission expense and lower operating costs more than offset the lower revenues.

    Loyalty products revenue increased $6.3 million, from $37.4 million to $43.7 million, or 16.8%, as compared to the secondquarter of 2012, due primarily to growth with existing clients. Loyalty Segment EBITDA increased $7.0 million, from $12.2million to $19.2 million, or 57%, as compared to the second quarter of 2012, primarily due to the same factors affectingrevenue growth.

    International:

    International revenue increased $7.4 million, from $76.1 million to $83.5 million, or 9.7%, as compared to the secondquarter of 2012 due to higher retail member volumes from both the Companys online and offline

    2

    Adjusted EBITDA (as defined in Note (d) of Table 6) increased 0.6%, from $84.1 million in the second quarter of2012 to $84.6 million.

    In the second quarter of 2013, the Company incurred $14.8 million in non-recurring higher General andAdministrative costs in connection with the decision to transfer a significant portion of its Accidental Death andDismemberment program to a new carrier by 2014, which is expected to provide the Company with opportunities

    to expand its existing insurance product offerings, among other benefits. The majority of the $14.8 million in costsrelates to a termination payment to the Companys current carrier for relief from business volume commitmentsthat are no longer expected to be met as a result of the anticipated migration to a replacement carrier, while theremaining portion relates to estimated premium refunds owed to certain insureds as specified in the current carrieragreement.

    Segment EBITDA increased 114%, from $27.7 million in the second quarter of 2012 to $59.2 million, or $31.5million. The increase largely relates to the absence in 2013 of the previously disclosed $39.7 million in non-cashimpairment charges in connection with the Companys Prospectiv acquisition. Excluding this item and the $14.8million in higher General and Administrative costs described above, Segment EBITDA would have increased9.8%, as the Company more than offset the reduction in revenues with lower operating expenses.

    As compared to Adjusted EBITDA, second quarter Segment EBITDA reflects the inclusion of, among otheritems, $14.8 million in costs related to the carrier transfer, $2.8 million in non-cash stock compensation expense,$2.7 million in costs related primarily to the restructuring of certain operations and $1.1 million in costs relating to

    the ongoing resolution of previously disclosed litigation matters.

    acquisition channels as well as revenue generated from the Turkish acquisitions. International Segment EBITDA decreased$7.0 million, from $10.0 million to $3.0 million, or 70.0%, as compared to the second quarter of 2012, as the higher revenuewas more than offset by significantly higher marketing and commissions and operating costs in connection with the greaterretail volumes.
