Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

June 30, 2007 and 2006 (Unaudited)

1.	Organization and Nature of Business

First Advantage Corporation (the “Company” or “First Advantage”) is a global risk mitigation and business solutions provider and operates in six primary business segments: Lender Services, Data Services, Dealer Services, Employer Services, Multifamily Services, and Investigative and Litigation Support Services.

The First American Corporation and affiliates (“First American”) own approximately 81% of the shares of capital stock of the Company as of June 30, 2007. The Class B common stock owned by First American is entitled to ten votes per share on all matters presented to the stockholders for vote.

On March 1, 2007, John Long submitted his resignation as the Chief Executive Officer and as a director of the Company, effective as of March 30, 2007. In connection with his resignation from the Company, Mr. Long and First Advantage entered into a Transition Agreement dated as of March 2, 2007. The Transition Agreement provides that Mr. Long will receive cash severance of $4.4 million to be paid in two equal installments between April 2007 and March 2008. In addition, Mr. Long will receive an acceleration of his unvested options and two restricted stock awards, effective March 30, 2007. An additional restricted stock award made to Mr. Long will vest during the term of restrictive covenants set forth in the Transition Agreement. Restricted stock units, previously granted to Mr. Long, will continue to vest according to the terms of First Advantage’s 2003 Incentive Compensation Plan. Based on the recommendation of the Compensation Committee, the Transition Agreement was approved by First Advantage’s board of directors on March 1, 2007. In connection with the Transition Agreement, First Advantage recorded compensation expense of $8.0 million in the first quarter of 2007 (included in salaries and benefits in the accompanying six months ended June 30, 2007 Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income), reflecting the value of the cash severance payment of $4.4 million and the value of the previously unvested restricted stock, restricted stock units and stock options. The $8.0 million of compensation expense reduced net income for the six months ending June 30, 2007 by $4.7 million or 8 cents per diluted share.

2.	Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

The consolidated financial information included in this report has been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and does not include all of the information and notes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments are of a normal recurring nature and are considered necessary for a fair statement of the results for the interim period. The year end balance data was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by generally

accepted accounting principles. This report should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

First Advantage completed one acquisition in the first quarter of 2007. The Company’s operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007 include results for the acquired entity from the date of acquisition.

Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the entire fiscal year.

As of June 30, 2007, the Company’s significant accounting polices and estimates, which are detailed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006, have not changed from December 31, 2006.

Certain amounts for the three and six months ended June 30, 2006 have been reclassified to conform with the 2007 presentation.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157 “Fair Value Measurements” (“SFAS 157”). SFAS 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value within generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosure requirements regarding fair value measurements. The provisions for SFAS 157 are effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, and interim periods within those fiscal years.

In February 2007, the FASB issued FAS 159 “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Liabilities.” FAS 159 allows companies to report selected financial assets and liabilities at fair value at their discretion. FAS 159 also establishes presentation and disclosure requirements designed to facilitate comparisons between companies that choose different measurement attributes for similar types of assets and liabilities. FAS 159 is effective at the beginning of a company’s first fiscal year after November 15, 2007.

3.	Acquisitions

During the first quarter of 2007, the Company completed one acquisition for $4.5 million in cash and notes. In addition, the Company paid consideration of $35.6 related to earnout provisions from prior year acquisitions and an additional purchase of a portion of the minority interest in LeadClick Media Inc.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION

AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Overview

First Advantage Corporation (NASDAQ: FADV) (“First Advantage” or the “Company”) provides global risk mitigation, screening services and credit reporting to enterprise and consumer customers. The Company operates in six primary business segments: Lender Services, Data Services, Dealer Services, Employer Services, Multifamily Services, and Investigative & Litigation Support Services. First Advantage is headquartered in St. Petersburg, Florida, and has approximately 4,800 employees in offices throughout the United States and abroad. For the six months ended June 30, 2007, First Advantage has acquired one company, which is included in the Employer Services segment.

Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007 included total service revenue of $207.4 million and $409.2 million, respectively. This represents an increase of 8.1% and 9.7% over the same periods in 2006. The organic growth rate was 4.0% and 4.7% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007, respectively. Operating income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007 was $34.3 million and $56.3 million, respectively. Operating income increased $.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2007 and decreased $4.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007 in comparison to the same periods in 2006. In connection with the former CEO’s Transition Agreement, First Advantage recorded compensation expense of $8.0 million in the first quarter of 2007 (included in salaries and benefits in the accompanying six months ended June 30, 2007 Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income), reflecting the value of the cash severance payment of $4.4 million and the value of the previously unvested restricted stock, restricted stock units and stock options. The $8.0 million of compensation expense reduced net income for the six months ending June 30, 2007 by $4.7 million or 8 cents per diluted share.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Critical accounting policies are those policies used in the preparation of the company’s financial statements that require management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of certain assets, liabilities, revenue, expenses and related disclosure of contingencies. A summary of these policies can be found in Management’s Discussion and Analysis in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for year ended December 31, 2006.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS 157 “Fair Value Measurements”.

Other operating expenses increased by $7.7 million compared to the same period in 2006. Other operating expenses were 13.1% of service revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 12.3% compared to the same period for 2006. The increase is due to acquisitions, and increased marketing, legal and professional fees.

Depreciation and amortization increased by $2.5 million due to an overall increase in amortization of intangible assets as a result of acquisitions, rollout of software initiatives and capital asset investment for organic growth.

The consolidated operating margin was 13.8% for the six months ended June 30, 2007, compared to 16.2% for the same period in 2006. The decrease in margin is primarily due the change in revenue mix, primarily effected by the mortgage lending industry, and $8.0 million of costs related to the former CEO’s transition agreement in the first quarter of 2007.

Income from operations was $56.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007 compared to $60.5 million for the same period in 2006. The decrease of $4.2 million is comprised of an increase in operating income of $3.8 million in Data Services, $3.9 million in Employer Services, $2.1 million in Multifamily Services and $.4 million in Investigative and Litigation Support Services offset by decreases in operating income of $3.5 million at Lender Services, $1.8 million at Dealer Services and an increase of corporate expenses of $9.1 million.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company’s primary source of liquidity is cash flow from operations and amounts available under credit lines the Company has established with a bank. As of June 30, 2007, cash and cash equivalents were $29.8 million.

Net cash provided by operating activities was $51.2 million compared to cash provided by operating activities of $27.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively.

Cash provided by operating activities increased by $23.5 million from the first half of 2006 to the first half of 2007 while net income was $29.6 million in the six months ended June 30, 2007 and $29.4 million for the same period in 2006. The increase in cash provided by operating activities was primarily due to the

increase in shared based compensation, deferred taxes, depreciation, amortization and bad debt expense, offset by payments made for accrued liabilities and collections on accounts receivable.

Cash used in investing activities was $49.0 million and $37.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively. In the first half of 2007, net cash in the amount of $27.2 million was used for acquisitions compared to $25.7 million in 2006. Purchases of property and equipment were $20.1 million in the first half of 2007 compared to $13.0 million in the same period of 2006.

Cash used in financing activities was $4.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007, compared to cash provided from financing activities of $0.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2006. In the first half of 2007, proceeds from existing credit facilities were $42.8 million compared to $32.8 million in 2006. Repayment of debt was $51.7 million in the first half of 2007 and $31.5 million in the same period of 2006.

In 2005, the Company executed a $225 million revolving credit agreement, with a bank syndication (the “Credit Agreement”). The Credit Agreement includes a $10 million sub-facility for the issuance of letters of credit and up to a $5 million swing loan facility. The credit facility maturity date is September 28, 2010. The Credit Agreement is collateralized by the stock of the Company’s subsidiaries.

At June 30, 2007, the Company had available lines of credit of $71 million and the Company was in compliance with the financial covenants of its loan agreements.

First Advantage filed a Registration Statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission for the issuance of up to 5,000,000 shares of our Class A common stock, par value $.001 per share, from time to time as full or partial consideration for the acquisition of businesses, assets or securities of other business entities. The Registration Statement was declared effective on January 9, 2006. A total of 1,304,005 shares were issued for acquisitions as of June 30, 2007.

First Advantage filed a Registration Statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission for the issuance of up to 2,000,000 shares of our Class A common stock, par value $.001 per share, from time to time for general corporate purposes. The Registration Statement was declared effective on January 3, 2005. No shares have been issued as of June 30, 2007.

First Advantage seeks to acquire other businesses as part of its growth strategy. The Company will continue to evaluate acquisitions in order to achieve economies of scale, expand market share and enter new markets. The extent of future acquisitions, however, is dependent upon the availability of capital and liquidity to fund such acquisitions.

While uncertainties within the Company’s industry exist, management is not aware of any trends or events likely to have a material adverse effect on liquidity or the accompanying financial statements. The Company believes that, based on current levels of operations and anticipated growth, the Company’s cash flow from operations, together with available sources of liquidity, will be sufficient to fund operations, anticipated capital expenditures, make required payments of principal and interest on debt, and satisfy other long-term contractual commitments. However, any material adverse change in our operating results from our business plan, or acceleration of existing debt obligations or in the amount of investment in acquisitions, technology or products could require the Company to seek other funding alternatives including raising additional capital.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1.

Legal Proceedings

First Advantage’s subsidiaries are involved in litigation from time to time in the ordinary course of their businesses. The Company does not believe that the outcome of any pending or threatened litigation involving these entities will have a material adverse effect on our financial position, operating results or cash flows.

Two subsidiaries are defendants in separate class action lawsuits that are pending in state court in California. The plaintiffs in both cases allege that our subsidiaries, directly and through their agents, violated the California Consumer Credit Reporting Agencies Act and Investigative Consumer Reporting Agency Act (“ICRA”) by failing to use reasonable procedures to ensure the maximum possible accuracy when issuing tenant reports and to comply with ICRA. The actions seek injunctive relief, an accounting, restitution, statutory damages, interest, punitive damages and attorneys’ fees and costs. The Company does not believe that the ultimate resolution of these actions will have a material adverse affect on its financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
