APi Group Corporation

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

(Amounts in millions, except shares and where noted otherwise)

NOTE 1. NATURE OF BUSINESS

APi Group Corporation (the “Company” or “APG”) is a global, market-leading business services provider of safety and specialty services in over 500 locations in approximately 20 countries.

NOTE 2.1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Nature of business

APi Group Corporation (the “Company” or “APG”) is a global, market-leading business services provider of safety and specialty services in over 500 locations worldwide.
Principles of consolidation

The accompanying interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements (the “Interim Statements”) include the accounts of the Company and of its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. These Interim Statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for complete financial statements. The condensed consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 20212022, were derived from audited financial statements for the year then ended but do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP with respect to annual financial statements. In the opinion of management, the Interim Statements include all adjustments (including normal recurring accruals) necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for the dates and periods presented. The Company revised its Condensed Consolidated Statements of Shareholders’ Equity for the three-month period ended March 31, 2022 to reclassify the Series B Preferred Stock dividend from Accumulated Deficit to Additional Paid-In Capital. It is recommended that these Interim Statements be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited annual consolidated financial statements and accompanying footnotes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2021.2022. Results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for a full fiscal year or for any future period.

Resegmentation

The Company has combined the leadership responsibility and full accountability for the Industrial Services and Specialty Services operating segments. As a result, beginning in 2022, the information for the legacy Industrial Services segment was combined with the legacy Specialty Services segment to form a new operating and reportable segment called Specialty Services. Accordingly, the Company presents financial information for the Safety Services and Specialty Services segments, the two operating segments and also the reportable segments. The Company's chief operating decision maker regularly reviews financial information to allocate resources and assess performance utilizing these reorganized segments.

Certain prior year amounts have been recast to conform to the current year presentation. Throughout these Interim Statements, unless otherwise indicated, amounts and activity reflect reclassifications related to the Company's resegmentation, as described in Note 21 - "Segment Information."

Cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash

The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity date of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Restricted cash is reported as restricted cash and other current assets in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Restricted cash reflects collateral against certain bank guarantees and amounts held in escrow.

guarantees.

8


Investments

The Company holds investments in joint ventures, the majority of which are accounted for under the equity method of accounting as the Company does not exercise control over the joint ventures. The Company exercises control over one joint venture that is consolidated into the Company's financial statements and the results for that joint venture for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 were immaterial. The Company’s share of earnings from the non-consolidated joint ventures was $2$1 and $1$2 during the three months ended September 30, 20222023 and 2021,2022, respectively, and $3$5 and $3 during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, and 2021.respectively. The earnings are recorded within investment income and other, net in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. The investment balances were $4$6 and $4 as of September 30, 20222023 and December 31, 2021,2022, respectively, and are recorded within other assets in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Pension and post-retirement obligations

The Company's accounting policies related to pension and post-retirement obligations are disclosed in Note 15 - "Pension".

NOTE 3.2. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

See the recent accounting pronouncements discussion below for information pertaining to the effects of recently adopted and other recent accounting pronouncements as updated from the discussion in the Company’s 20212022 audited consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed on March 1, 2022.2023.

Accounting standards issued and adopted

In March 2020,August 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued ASU 2020-04,2023-05, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848)Business Combinations— Joint Venture Formations (Subtopic 805-60): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial ReportingRecognition and Initial Measurement, which helps limit therequires that a joint venture apply a new basis of accounting impact from contract modifications, including hedging relationships, due to the transition from the London Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR") to alternative reference rates, such as the Secured Overnight Financing Rate, that are completed by December 31, 2022.upon formation. As a result, a newly formed joint venture would initially measure its assets and liabilities at fair value. ASU 2023-05 is effective for joint ventures with a formation date on or after January 1, 2025, with early

The Company will continue to use the one-month LIBOR until it is phased out on June 30, 2023 andstatements, but does not expect the transition from LIBOR to alternative reference interest rates to have a significant impact to operating results, financial position or cash flows, but will continue to monitor the impact of this transition until it is completed.be material.

In August 2020,October 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06,2023-06, Debt – Debt ConversionDisclosure Improvements: Codification Amendments in Response to the SEC’s Disclosure Update and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20)Simplification Initiative, which incorporates certain SEC disclosure requirements into the FASB Accounting Standards Codification.

The Company adoptedis currently evaluating the potential effect of this ASU on January 1, 2022 and it did not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.statements, but does not expect the impact to be material.

NOTE 4.3. BUSINESS COMBINATIONS

The Company continuallyregularly evaluates potential acquisitions that strategically fit with the Company’s existing portfolio or expand the Company’s portfolio into a new and attractive business area. Acquisitions are accounted for as business combinations using the acquisition method of accounting. As such, the Company makes a preliminary allocation of the purchase price to the tangible assets, and identifiable intangible assets acquired, and liabilities assumed. In the months after closing, as the Company obtains additional information about the acquired assets and liabilities and learns more about the newly acquired business, it is able to refine the estimates of fair value and more accurately allocate the purchase price. PurchaseThe purchase price is allocated to acquired assets and liabilities assumed based upon their estimated fair values, with limited exceptions as permitted pursuant to U.S. GAAP, as determined based on estimates and assumptions deemed reasonable by the Company. The Company engages third-party valuation specialists to assist with the preparation of critical assumptions and calculations of the fair value of acquired tangible and intangible assets in connection with significant acquisitions. The excess of the purchase price over the tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed is recorded as goodwill. Goodwill is attributable to the workforce of the acquired businesses, the complementary strategic fit and resulting synergies these businesses bring to existing operations, and the opportunities in new markets expected to be achieved from the expanded platform.
2023 Acquisitions
The Company completed an acquisition included within the Safety Services segment on June 30, 2023 ("Acquisition A23"). Consideration for Acquisition A23 included cash paid at closing of $30, cash deposited into escrow for future deferred payments of $5, and accrued consideration of $3. The results of operations of this acquisition are included in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations from the date of acquisition.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company completed four individually immaterial acquisitions for aggregate consideration transferred of $24, made up of cash paid at closing of $22 and accrued consideration of $2. The results of operations of these acquisitions are included in the Company’s condensed consolidated statement of operations from their respective dates of acquisition and were not material.
The Company has not finalized its accounting for the acquisitions and will make appropriate adjustments to the purchase price allocation prior to completion of the measurement periods, as required. Based on preliminary estimates, the total amount of goodwill from acquisitions expected to be deductible for tax purposes is $38.
The following table summarizes the preliminary estimated fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the dates of acquisition:

Based on U.S. income tax principles related to acquisitions of non-U.S. entities, none of the Chubb business was funded through a combinationtotal amount of cash on hand and net proceeds from the private placement of Series B Preferred Stock (as defined in Note 16 - "Related-Party Transactions"), the offering of the 4.750% Senior Notes, and the 2021 Term Loan (both defined in Note 12 - "Debt").

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company incurred transaction costs of $0 and $24, respectively, which were expensed and included as a component of selling, general, and administrative expenses in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

The Chubb Acquisition was accountedgoodwill is deductible for as a business combination using the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with ASC 805, Business Combinations. The purchase price has been preliminarily allocated to the tangible assets and identifiable intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based upon their estimated fair values, with the exception of the following: (1) pre-acquisition contingencies which are recognized and measured in accordance with ASC 450, Contingencies, if fair value cannot be determined; (2) deferredU.S. income tax assets acquired and liabilities assumed are recognized and measured in accordance with ASC 740, Income Taxes; (3) pensions and other post-retirement benefits other than pensions are recognized and measured in accordance with ASC 715, Compensation – Retirement Benefits; (4) contract assets and liabilities are measured and recognized in accordance with ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers ("ASC 606"); and (5) certain lease related assets and liabilities which are measured and recognized in accordance with ASC 842, Leases ("ASC 842").

Since the Chubb Acquisition occurred on January 3, 2022, the Company has not finalized its accounting for any areasTable of purchase price allocation related to the Chubb Acquisition. The Company anticipates that it will finalize its accounting for the Chubb Acquisition during the fourth quarter of 2022. During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company recorded measurement period adjustments, primarily related to working capital balances, property and equipment, and intangible assets. The Company will make appropriate adjustments to the purchase price allocation prior to completion of the measurement period, as required.Contents

The excess of the purchase price over the tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed has been recorded as goodwill. The Company has assigned the provisional goodwill of $1,412 to its Safety Services reportable segment (see Note 7 - "Goodwill and Intangibles"). Based on U.S. income tax principles related to acquisitions of non-U.S. entities, the Company does not expect any of the provisional amount of goodwill to be deductible for U.S. income tax purposes.

The Company has identified the following significant intangible assets: customer relationships, trade names and trademarks, and contractual backlog. As of the effective date of the Chubb Acquisition, identifiable intangible assets are required to be measured at fair value, and these assets could include assets that are not intended to be used or sold or that are intended to be used in a manner other than their highest and best use. For purposes of these condensed consolidated financial statements, the fair value and weighted-average useful lives of these intangible assets have been estimated using variations of the income approach. Specifically, the excess earnings method was utilized to estimate the fair value of the customer relationships and the contractual backlog. The relief from royalty method was utilized to estimate the fair value of the trade names and trademarks. Significant inputs used to value these intangible assets include projections of future cash flows, long-term growth rates, customer attrition rates, discount rates, royalty rates, and applicable income tax rates.

The following table summarizes the preliminary fair value of the identifiable intangible assets:

2021 Acquisitions

The Company completed the acquisitions of Premier Fire & Security, Inc. ("Premier Fire") in July 2021, and Northern Air Corporation ("NAC") in November 2021, both included in the Safety Services segment, as well as several other individually immaterial acquisitions. Total purchase consideration for all of the completed acquisitions of $113 consisted of cash paid at closing of $93, gross cash acquired of $7, and accrued consideration of $20. The results of operations of these acquisitions are included in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations from their respective dates of acquisition.

The Company has not finalized its accounting for the NAC acquisition. The area of the purchase price allocation that is not yet finalized for the NAC acquisition is the valuation of income tax related matters. During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company recorded a measurement period adjustment, primarily related to a reclassification between intangible assets and goodwill for the NAC acquisition. The Company will make appropriate adjustments to the purchase price allocation prior to completion of the measurement period, as required. Based on preliminary estimates, the total amount of goodwill from the 2021 acquisitions expected to be deductible for tax purposes is $48. See Note 7 – “Goodwill and Intangibles” for the provisional goodwill assigned to each segment.

For the three months ended September 30, 2022, net revenues and operating loss from the Company's material acquisitions that closed over the previous twelve months was $526 and $7, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, net revenues and operating income from the material acquisitions that closed over the previous twelve months was $1,603 and $4, respectively.

Accrued consideration

The Company’s acquisition purchase agreements typically include deferred payment provisions, often to sellers who become employees of the Company or its subsidiaries. The provisions are made up of three general types of arrangements, contingent compensation and contingent consideration (both of which are contingent on the future performance of the acquired entity) and deferred payments related to indemnities. Contingent compensation arrangements are typically contingent on the former owner’s future employment with the Company, and the related amounts are recognized over the required employment period, which is typically onethree to five years.four years. Contingent consideration arrangements are not contingent on employment and are included as part of purchase consideration at the time of the initial acquisition and are paid over a onethree to fivefour year period. The liability for deferred payments is recognized at the date of acquisition based on the Company’s best estimate and is typically payable over a one to twothree year period. Deferred payments are not contingent on any future performance or employment obligations and can be offset for working capital true-ups, and representations and warranty items.

The total contingent compensation arrangement liability was $17$7 and $12$19 at September 30, 20222023, and December 31, 2021,2022, respectively. The maximum payout of these arrangements upon completion of the future performance periods was $19$15 and $57,$25, inclusive of the $17$7 and $12,$19, accrued as of September 30, 20222023, and December 31, 2021,2022, respectively. The contingent compensation liability is included in contingent consideration and compensation liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheets for all periods presented. The Company primarily determines the contingent compensation liability based on forecasted cumulative earnings compared to the cumulative earnings target set forth in the arrangement. Compensation expense associated with these arrangements is recognized ratably over the required employment period.

The contingent consideration obligations are measured at fair value each reporting period and changes in estimates of fair value are recognized in earnings. For additional considerations regarding the fair value of the Company's contingent consideration liabilities, see Note 8 - "Fair Value of Financial Instruments."

The total liability for deferred payments was $12$14 and $15$9 at September 30, 20222023 and December 31, 2021,2022, respectively, and is included in contingent consideration and compensation liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheets for all periods presented.

NOTE 6. NET REVENUES

Under ASC 606, revenue is recognized when

Contracts with customers
The Company derives net revenues primarily from contracts with a duration of less than one week to three years (with the majority of contracts with durations of less than six months), which are subject to multiple pricing options, including fixed price, unit price, time and material, or as control of promised goods and services is transferred to customers and the amount of revenue recognized reflects the consideration to which an entity expects to be entitled in exchange for the goods and services transferred.cost plus a markup. Net revenues are primarily recognized by the Company over time utilizing the cost-to-cost measure of progress. Net revenues recognized at a point in time primarily relate to distribution contracts and short-term time and materialsmaterial contracts.

Contracts with customers

The Company derives net revenues primarily from contracts with a duration of less than one week to three years (with the majority of contracts with durations of less than six months) which are subject to multiple pricing options including fixed price, unit price, time and material, or cost plus a markup. The Company also enters into fixed pricefixed-price service contracts related to monitoring, maintenance, and inspection of safety systems. The Company may utilize subcontractors in the fulfillment of its performance obligations. When doing so, the Company is considered the principal in these transactions and revenues are recognized on a gross basis.

Net revenues for fixed price agreements are generally recognized over time using the cost-to-cost method of accounting, which measures progress based on the cost incurred relative to total expected cost in satisfying its performance obligation. The cost-to-cost method is used as it best depicts the continuous transfer of control of goods or services to the customer. Costs incurred include direct materials, labor and subcontract costs, and indirect costs related to contract performance, such as indirect labor, supplies, tools, repairs and depreciation costs. These contract costs are included in the results of operations under cost of revenues. Labor and subcontractor labor costs are considered to be incurred and recognized as the work is performed.

13


Net revenues from time and material contracts are generally recognized as the services are provided and is equal to the sum of the contract costs incurred plus an agreed upon markup. Net revenues earned from distribution contracts are recognized upon shipment or performance of the service.

The cost estimation process for recognizing net revenues over time under the cost-to-cost method is based on the professional knowledge and experience of the Company’s project managers, engineers, and finance professionals. Management reviews estimates of total contract transaction price and total project costs on an ongoing basis. Changes in job performance, job conditions, and management’s assessment of expected variable consideration are factors that influence estimates of the total contract transaction price, total costs to complete those contracts, and the Company’s profit recognition. Changes in these factors could result in cumulative revisions to net revenues in the period in which the revisions are determined, which could materially affect the Company’s consolidated results of operations for that period. Provisions for estimated losses on uncompleted contracts are recorded in the period in which such estimated losses are determined.

The Company disaggregates its net revenues primarily by segment, service type, and country from which revenues are invoiced, as the nature, timing, and uncertainty of cash flows are relatively consistent within each of these categories. The following tables provide disclosure of disaggregated net revenues by segment for the three and nine months ended September 30, 20222023, and 2021. Prior2022.

For contracts with multiple performance obligations, the transaction price of a contract is allocated to each performance obligation and recognized as net revenues when or as the performance obligation is satisfied using the estimated stand-alone selling price of each distinct good or service. The stand-alone selling price is estimated using the expected cost plus a margin approach for each performance obligation. The Company utilizes the practical expedient under ASC 606 and does not disclose unsatisfied performance obligations for service contracts as these contracts generally have an original duration of less than one year. For those in-process contracts, with an original duration exceeding one year, the aggregate amount of transaction price allocated to the unsatisfied performance obligations unsatisfied at September 30, 20222023 was $567.$2,732. The Company expects to recognize revenue on approximately 65%87% of the remaining performance obligations over the next twelve months.

When more than one contract is entered into with a customer on or close to the same date, management evaluates whether those contracts should be combined and accounted for as a single contract as well as whether those contracts should be accounted for as one, or more than one, performance obligation. This evaluation requires significant judgment and is based on the facts and circumstances of the various contracts.

Contracts are often modified through change orders to account for changes in the scope and price of the goods or services being provided. Although the Company evaluates each change order to determine whether such modification creates a separate performance obligation, the majority of change orders are for goods or services not distinct within the context of the original contract and, therefore, not treated as a separate performance obligation but rather as a modification of the existing contract and performance obligation.

Variable consideration

Transaction prices for customer contracts may include variable consideration which comprises items such as early completion bonuses and liquidated damages provisions. Management estimates variable consideration for a performance obligation utilizing estimation methods believed to best predict the amount of consideration to which the Company will be entitled. Variable consideration is included in the transaction price only to the extent it is probable, in the Company’s judgment, that a significant future reversal in the amount of cumulative revenue recognized under the contract will not occur when the uncertainty associated with the variable consideration is subsequently resolved.

Changes in the estimates of transaction prices are recognized in net revenues on a cumulative catch-up basis in the period in which the revisions to the estimates are made. Such changes in estimates may also result in the reversal of previously recognized net revenues if the ultimate outcome differs from the Company’s previous estimate. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, there were no significant reversals of net revenues recognized associated with the revision of transaction prices. The Company typically does not incur any returns, refunds or similar obligations after the completion of the performance obligation since any deficiencies are corrected during the course of performance.

months.

Contract assets and liabilities

The Company typically invoices customers with payment terms of net due in 30 days. It is also common for contracts in the Company’s industries to specify a general contractor is not required to submit payments to a subcontractor until it has received those funds from the owner or funding source. In most instances, the Company receives payment of invoices between 30 to 90 days from the date of the invoice.

The timing of revenue recognition may differ from the timing of invoicing to customers. Contract assets include unbilled amounts from the Company’s projects when revenues are recognized under the cost-to-cost measure of progress and exceed the amounts invoiced to the Company’s customers, as the amounts cannot be billed under the terms of the Company’s contracts. In addition, many of the Company’s time and material arrangements are billed in arrears pursuant to contract terms, resulting in contract assets being recorded as net revenues are recognized in advance of billings.

Contract liabilities from the Company’s contracts arise when amounts invoiced to the Company’s customers exceed net revenues recognized under the cost-to-cost measure of progress. Contract liabilities also include advance payments from the Company’s customers on certain contracts. Contract liabilities decrease as the Company recognizes net revenues from the satisfaction of the related performance obligation.

The Company utilizes the practical expedient under ASC 606 and does not adjust for a significant financing component if the time between payment and the transfer of the related good or service is expected to be one year or less. The Company’s revenue arrangements are typically accounted for under such expedient as payments are within one year of performance for the Company’s services. As of September 30, 2022, none of the Company’s contracts contained a significant financing component.

Contract assets and contract liabilities are classified as current in the condensed consolidated balance sheets as all amounts are expected to be relieved within one year. The balances of accounts receivable, net of allowances, contract assets, and contract liabilities from contracts with customers as of September 30, 20222023 and December 31, 20212022 are as follows:

The Company did not recognize significant revenues associated with the final settlement of contract value for any projects completed in prior periods. In accordance with industry practice, accounts receivable includes retentions receivable, a portion of which may not be received within one year. At September 30, 20222023 and December 31, 2021,2022, retentions receivable were $134$159 and $117,$150, respectively, while the portions that may not be received within one year were $20$27 and $$35, respectively.

Costs to obtain or fulfill a contract

The Company generally does not incur significant incremental costs related to obtaining or fulfilling a contract prior to the start of a project. The Company may incur certain fulfilment costs such as initial design or mobilization costs which are capitalized if: (i) they relate directly to the contract; (ii) are expected to generate resources that will be used to satisfy the Company’s performance obligation under the contract; and (iii) are expected to be recovered through revenues generated under the contract. Such costs, which are amortized over the life of the respective project, were not material for any period presented.

NOTE 8. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

U.S. GAAP defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. As such, fair value is a market-based measurement that should be determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. The authoritative guidance discusses valuation techniques such as the market approach (comparable market prices), the income approach (present value of future income or cash flow), and the cost approach (cost to replace the service capacity of an asset or replacement cost). These valuation techniques are based upon observable and unobservable inputs. Observable inputs reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect the Company’s market assumptions. As the basis for evaluating such inputs, a three-tier value hierarchy prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:
Level 1:

Observable inputs such as quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.

Level 1:

Observable inputs such as quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.

Level 2:

Observable inputs other than quoted prices that are directly or indirectly observable for the asset or liability, including quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for similar or identical assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations whose inputs are observable or whose significant value drivers are observable.

Level 3:

Unobservable inputs that reflect the Company's own assumptions.

Level 2:

Observable inputs other than quoted prices that are directly or indirectly observable for the asset or liability, including quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for similar or identical assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations whose inputs are observable or whose significant value drivers are observable.

Level 3:Unobservable inputs that reflect the Company's own assumptions.
Recurring fair value measurements

The Company’s financial assets and liabilities (adjusted to fair value at least quarterly) are derivative instruments and contingent consideration obligations. In the condensed consolidated balance sheets, derivative instruments are primarily included in other noncurrent assets and other noncurrent liabilities, and contingent consideration obligations are primarily included in contingent consideration and compensation liabilities.

The following tables summarize the fair values and levels within the fair value hierarchy in which the measurements fall for assets and liabilities measured on a recurring basis as of September 30, 20222023 and December 31, 2021:

The Company determines the fair value of its derivative instruments designated as hedge instruments using standard pricing models and market-based assumptions for all inputs such as yield curves and quoted spot and forward exchange rates. Accordingly, the Company’s derivative instruments are classified as Level 2.

Contingent consideration obligations

The value of the contingent consideration obligations is determined using a probability-weighted discounted cash flow method. This fair value measurement is based on unobservable inputs in the market and thus represents a Level 3 measurement within the fair value hierarchy. This analysis reflects the contractual terms of the purchase agreements (e.g.,
18

potential payment amounts, length of measurement periods, manner of calculating any amounts due) and utilizes assumptions with regard to future cash flows, probabilities of achieving such future cash flows, and a discount rate. Depending on the contractual terms of the purchase agreement, the probabilities of achieving future cash flows or earnings generally represent the only significant unobservable inputs. The contingent consideration obligations are measured at fair value each reporting period, and changes in estimates of fair value are recognized in earnings.

The table below presents a reconciliation of the fair value of the Company’s contingent consideration obligations that use unobservable inputs (Level 3), as well as other information about the contingent consideration obligations:

NOTE 9. DERIVATIVES

The Company uses foreign currency forward contracts, cross-currency swaps, and interest rate swap agreements to manage risks associated with foreign currency exchange rates, net investments in foreign operations, and interest rates. The Company does not hold derivative financial instruments of a speculative nature or for trading purposes. The Company records derivatives as assets and liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets at fair value. Changes in fair value are recognized immediately in earnings unless the derivative qualifies and is designated as a hedge.hedge under ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging. Cash flows from derivatives are classified in the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows in the same category as the cash flows from the items subject to designated hedge or undesignated (economic) hedge relationships. The Company evaluates hedge effectiveness at inception and on an ongoing basis. If a derivative is no longer expected to be effective, hedge accounting is discontinued.

19

The Company is exposed to credit risk in the event of nonperformance of counterparties for foreign currency forward exchange contracts, cross currency swaps, and interest rate swap agreements. The Company monitors its exposure to credit risk by using credit approvals and credit limits and by selecting major global banks and financial institutions as counterparties. The Company does not enter into derivative transactions for trading purposes, and is not party to any derivatives that require collateral to be posted prior to settlement.
Certain of the Company’s derivative transactions are subject to master netting arrangements that allow the Company to net settle contracts with the same counterparties. These arrangements do not call for collateral, and no cash collateral had been received or pledged related to the underlying derivatives as of September 30, 2023.

Cash flow hedges

For derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges, the gain or loss on the derivative is reported as a component of other comprehensive income and reclassified into earnings in the same period during which the hedged transaction affects earnings. Gains and losses on the derivative representing hedge components excluded from the assessment of effectiveness are recognized in current earnings.

Interest rate swaps

The Company manages its fixed and floating rate debt mix using interest rate swaps. The Company uses interest rate swap contracts to separate interest rate risk management from the debt funding decision. The cash paid and received from the settlement of interest rate swaps is included in interest expense in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. The Company elected a method that does not require continuous evaluation of hedge effectiveness.

During the three months ended September 30, 2022, the Company terminated the previously outstanding $720$720 notional amount interest rate swap with a maturity date in October 2024 ("2024 Interest Rate Swap"). The present value as of the date of termination of the 2024 Interest Rate Swap is recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) ("AOCI")AOCI on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. The fair value previously recognized in AOCI related to interest rate movements of the 2024 Interest Rate Swap is being amortized to interest expense on a straight-line basis through October 2024. The amount amortized from AOCI into interest expense during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 was $1. As of September 30, 2022,2023, approximately $33$18 of unrealized pre-tax gains remained in AOCI.
22

During the three months ended September 30, 2022, the Company entered into an aggregate $720$720 notional amount interest rate swap ("2026 Interest Rate Swap") that, as amended on May 19, 2023 in connection with the transition to the Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR"). Refer to Note 11 - "Debt" for additional information. The 2026 Interest Rate Swap exchanges a variable rate of interest (LIBOR)(SOFR) for an average fixed rate of interest of approximately 3.64%3.59% over the term of the agreement, which matures in October 2026.

2026.

During the three months ended June 30, 2022,first quarter of 2023, the Company entered into an aggregate $400$400 notional amount offorward-starting swaps became effective ("2028 Interest Rate Swap"), as amended on May 19, 2023 in connection with the transition to SOFR. Refer to Note 11 - "Debt" for additional information. These interest rate swaps that exchange a variable rate of interest (LIBOR)(SOFR) for an average fixed rate of interest of approximately 3.46%3.41% over the term of the agreements, which mature in January 2028. These swaps are forward-starting and are effective commencing January 2023.

2028.

As of September 30, 2022,2023, the Company had $1,120$1,120 notional amount outstanding in swap agreements, which includes the aggregate $400$400 notional amount of forward-starting swaps,2028 Interest Rate Swap, and the four-year $720$720 notional 2026 Interest Rate Swap. The Company has designated these swaps as cash flow hedges of the interest rate risk attributable to forecasted variable interest (LIBOR) payments.(SOFR) payments for its SOFR based term loans of $2,012. As of September 30, 2022,2023, the weighted average fixed rate of interest on these swaps excluding the forward-starting swap, was approximately 3.64%3.52%. The effective portion of the after tax fair value gains or losses on these swaps is included as a component of AOCI.

Variations in the assets and liability balances are primarily driven by changes in the applicable forward yield curves related to LIBOR. The fair value of the effective interest rate swaps designated as hedging instruments was an asset of $9 and a liability of $11 as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. The fair value of the forward-starting interest rate swaps designated as hedging instruments was an asset of $8 as of September 30, 2022.

The Company recorded interest expense (income) of ($1) and $3 during the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and $3 and $8 of interest expense during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, related to interest rate swaps.

SOFR.

Cross-currency swaps

The Company enters into cross currencycross-currency exchange contracts utilized to hedge against the effect of exchange rate fluctuations on cash flows denominated in foreign currencies. These transactions are designated as cash flow hedges. The settlement or extensioncurrencies and to hedge exposures of these derivatives will resultcertain intercompany loans subject to changes in reclassifications (from AOCI) to earnings in the period during which the hedged transactions affect earnings.foreign currency exchange rates. The Company periodically assesses whether its currency exchange contracts are effective, and when a contract is determined to be no longer effective as a hedge, the Company discontinues hedge accounting prospectively.

During 2021, the Company entered into two cross-currency swaps designated as cash flow hedges with gross notional U.S. dollar equivalent amounts of $26$26 and $94$94 with maturity dates of September 2027 and 2030, respectively. The total fair value of the cross-currency hedges was an asset of $25 and $6 as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.
Foreign currency forward contracts
The Company recognized incomeutilizes foreign currency forward contracts to hedge the effect of $7 and $17 in investment income and other, net, during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, respectively, and income of $3 in investment income and other, net, during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively.

Net investment hedges

The Company has net investments in foreign subsidiaries subject to changes in foreign currency exchange rates. During 2021, the Company entered into a $230 notionalrate fluctuations on forecasted foreign currency swaptransactions, including inventory purchases and intercompany charges and other payments. These forward contracts are designated as a net investment hedge for a portion of the Company’s net investments in Euro-denominated subsidiaries. Gains and losses resulting from a changecash flow hedges. The changes in fair value of these contracts are recorded in other comprehensive income until the net investmenthedged items affect earnings, at which time the hedge gain or loss is reclassified into current earnings.

The Company periodically assesses whether its currency exchange contracts are offset by gainseffective, and losses on the underlying foreign currency exposure and are included in AOCI in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

During 2021,when a contract is determined to be no longer effective as a hedge, the Company amended the critical terms of the foreign currency swap by extending the maturity date and modifying the U.S. dollar and Euro coupons. The amended swap was redesignated as a net investmentdiscontinues hedge as a result of the amendment, recorded at fair value with changes recorded in AOCI, and the initial net investment hedge was dedesignated. The amended net investment hedge reduces the Company’s interest expense by approximately $3 annually and reduces its overall effective interest rate by approximately 24 basis points, and will mature in July 2029.

The fair value previously recognized in AOCI related to interest rate movements of the dedesignated swap is being amortized to interest expense on a straight-line basis through the third quarter 2029. The Company recorded interest income of $1 and $3 during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, respectively.

The fair value of the foreign currency swaps designated as net investment hedges was an asset of $45 and $12 as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.

Fair value hedges

The Company has certain intercompany loans subject to changes in foreign currency exchange rates. To hedge these exposures, during the first quarter of 2022, the Company entered into three cross currencycross-currency swaps each with maturity dates of January 2027. These contracts are designated as fair value hedges with gross notional U.S. dollar equivalents of $271, $241,$271, $241, and $209$209 in GBP, CAD, and EUR, respectively. The Company measures the effectiveness of fair value hedges of anticipated transactions on a spot-to-spot basis. Accordingly, the spot-to-spot change in the derivative fair values are recorded in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and perfectly offset the spot-to-spot change in the underlying intercompany loans, and as such, these hedges are deemed highly effective. The excluded component of the fair values of these derivatives is reported in AOCI within shareholders’ equity in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Any cash flows associated with these instruments are included in operating activities in the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows.

Net investment hedges
The Company has net investments in foreign subsidiaries subject to changes in foreign currency exchange rates. During 2021, the Company entered into a $230 notional foreign currency swap designated as a net investment hedge for a portion of the Company’s net investments in Euro-denominated subsidiaries. Gains and losses resulting from a change in fair value of these hedges were an asset of $95 as of September 30, 2022the net investment hedge are offset by gains and losses on the underlying foreign currency exposure and are included in AOCI in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

NOTE 11. LEASES

The Company determines if an arrangement is or contains a lease at inception, which is the date on which the terms of the contract are agreed to and the agreement creates enforceable rights and obligations. Under ASC 842, a contract is or contains a lease when (i) explicitly or implicitly identified assets have been deployed in the contract and (ii) the customer obtains substantially all of the economic benefits from the use of that underlying asset and directs how and for what purpose the asset is used during the term of the contract. The Company also considers whether its service arrangements include the right to control the use of an asset.

The Company leases various facilities, equipment, and vehicles from unrelated parties, which are primarily classified and accounted for as operating leases. The facility leases are primarily for office space with initial terms extending up to ten years. The equipment leases are primarily related to heavy equipment utilized in the completion of construction jobs and the terms of the agreements range from one to seven years. Vehicle leases have a minimum lease term ranging from one to seven years. Some leases include one or more options to renew, generally at the Company’s sole discretion, with renewal terms that can extend the lease term by one to twelve years or more.In addition, certain leases contain termination options, where the rights to terminate are held by either the Company, the lessor, or both parties. These options to extend or terminate a lease are included in the lease terms when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise that option. The Company’s leases generally do not contain any material restrictive covenants.

See the table below for information pertaining to the effects of recently acquired leases as updated from the discussion in the Company’s 2021 audited consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s Form 10-K filed on March 1, 2022. There were no other material impacts to the lease disclosures contained in the Company's Form 10-K.

Accordingly, the Company's fixed interest rate per annum on the swapped $720 notional value of the 2019 Term Loan is, 3.64% through its maturity. The remaining $407at the Company's option, either (a) a base rate plus an applicable margin equal to 1.50% or (b) Term SOFR rate (adjusted for statutory reserves) plus an applicable margin equal to 2.50% plus a credit spread adjustment ("CSA").
As of September 30, 2023, the 2019 Term Loan balance will bear interest at 6.25% per annum based on one-month LIBOR plus 250 basis points, butCompany had $985 of principal outstanding under the rate will fluctuate as LIBOR fluctuates. Refer to Note 9 - "Derivatives" for additional information.

The Company’s quarterly income tax provision is measured using an estimate of its consolidated annual effective tax rate, adjusted in the current period for discrete income tax items, within the periods presented. The comparison of the Company’s income tax provision between periods may be impacted by the level and mix of earnings and losses by tax jurisdiction, foreign income tax rate differentials, and discrete items. The Company’s effective tax rate was 40.5%25.5% and 38.5%40.5% for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, and 2021, respectively,31.3% and 24.2% and 31.3%24.2% for the nine months ended September 30, 20222023, and 2021,2022, respectively. The difference between the effective tax rate and the statutory U.S. Federalfederal income tax rate of 21.0%21.0% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 20222023 and 20212022 is due to nondeductible permanent items, state taxes, taxes on foreign earnings in jurisdictions that have higher tax rates, and the reversal of the Company’s indefinite reinvestment assertion.

NOTE 13. EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS
Defined benefit pension plans
The Company sponsors both funded and unfunded foreign defined benefit pension plans that cover a portion of the Company's employees, and the largest plans are closed to new participants and frozen for accrual of future service.
During the second quarter of 2023, an annuity purchase transaction, commonly known as a “buy-in”, was executed for the two pension plans in the United Kingdom. Under the terms of the contract, which is issued by a third-party insurance company with no affiliation to the Company, all pension obligations will be funded by the insurer’s annuity payments, but the plans still retain full legal responsibility to pay the benefits to plan participants using the insurance payments. As the plans maintain full legal responsibility, with the annuity contracts being assets of the plans, settlement accounting has not been applied and the contracts represent a change in investment strategy and not a significant change in the plan structure requiring a remeasurement at the interim date. Given the funded status of the plans, the Company does not expect any future contributions to be required.

Contributions are generally based on fixed amounts per hour per employee for employees covered under these plans. Multiemployer plan contribution rates are determined annually and assessed on a pay-as-you-go basis based on union employee payrolls. Union payrolls cannot be determined for future periods because the number of union employees employed at a given time and the plans in which they participate vary depending upon the location, the number of ongoing projects, and the need for union resources in connection with those projects. Total consolidated contributions to multiemployer plans were $26$25 and $26$26 during the three months ended September 30, 20222023 and 2021,2022, respectively, and $77$75 and $69$77 during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, and 2021, respectively.

Note 15. PENSION

The Company sponsors both funded and unfunded foreign defined benefit pension plans that cover a portion the Company's employees, and the largest plans are closed to new participants. The Company assumed the pension plans as part of the Chubb Acquisition on January 3, 2022, therefore, the plans used a January 3, 2022 measurement date to determine the Company's preliminary valuation of the pension plans in the purchase price allocation.

Guidance under FASB ASC Topic 715, Compensation – Retirement Benefits, requires balance sheet recognition of the overfunded or underfunded status of pension and postretirement benefit plans. Under this guidance, actuarial gains and losses, prior service costs or credits, and any remaining transition assets or obligations that have not been recognized under previous accounting standards must be recognized in other comprehensive income (loss), net of tax effects, until they are amortized as a component of net periodic benefit cost. Pension and post-retirement obligation balances and related costs reflected within the condensed consolidated balance sheets include costs directly attributable to plans dedicated to the Company.

The disclosure below of asset categories is presented in aggregate for 12 defined benefit plans in 7 countries; however, there is variation in asset allocation policy from country to country. Local regulations, local funding rules, and local financial and tax considerations are part of the funding and investment allocation process in each country. Each plan has its own strategic asset allocation. The asset allocations are reviewed periodically and rebalanced when necessary.

In accordance with ASU 2015-07 Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820), certain investments that are measured at fair value using net asset value per share (or its equivalent) practical expedient have not been classified in the fair value hierarchy. The fair value amounts presented in this table are intended to permit reconciliation of the fair value hierarchy to the amounts presented for the total pension assets.
(2)
Represents investments in real estate, including commingled funds and directly held properties.
(3)
Represents insurance contracts and global risk balanced commingled funds consisting mainly of equity, bonds, and some commodities.
(4)
Represents short-term commercial paper, bonds, and other cash or cash-like investments.
(5)
Represents trust receivables and payables that are not leveled.

Derivatives in the plan are primarily used to manage risk and gain asset class exposure while still maintaining liquidity. Derivative instruments mainly consist of equity futures, interest rate futures, interest rate swaps, and currency forward contracts.

The plans review assets at least quarterly to ensure they are within the targeted asset allocation ranges and, if necessary, asset balances are adjusted back within target allocations. The plans generally employ a broadly diversified investment manager structure that includes diversification by active and passive management, style, capitalization, country, sector, industry, and number of investment managers.

Quoted market prices are used to value investments when available. Investments in securities traded on exchanges, including listed futures and options, are valued at the last reported sale prices on the last business day of the year or, if not available, the last reported bid prices. Fixed income securities are primarily measured using a market approach pricing methodology, where observable prices are obtained by market transactions involving identical or comparable securities of issuers with similar credit ratings. Mortgages have been valued on the basis of their future principal and interest payments discounted at prevailing interest rates for similar investments. Investment contracts are valued at fair value by discounting the related cash flows based on current yields of similar instruments with comparable durations. Real estate investments are valued on a quarterly basis using discounted cash flow models which consider long-term lease estimates, future rental receipts, and estimated residual values. Valuation estimates are supplemented by third-party appraisals on an annual basis.

Over-the-counter securities and government obligations are valued at the bid prices or the average of the bid and ask prices on the last business day of the year from published sources or, if not available, from other sources considered reliable, generally broker quotes. Temporary cash investments are stated at cost, which approximates fair value.

The Company expects to make total contributions of approximately $33 to the global defined benefit pension plans in 2022, of which a one-time contribution of $27 was made during the first quarter of 2022. Contributions do not reflect benefits to be paid directly from corporate assets.

Benefit payments, including amounts to be paid from the plans and corporate assets, and reflecting expected future service, as appropriate, are expected to be paid as follows: $94 in 2022, $94 in 2023, $95 in 2024, $96 in 2025, $95 in 2026, and $502 from 2027 through 2030.

The holders of the Series B Preferred Stock are entitled to dividends at the rate of 5.5%5.5% per annum, payable in cash or the Company’s common stock, at the Company's election. The Series B Preferred Stock ranks senior to the Company's common stock and Series A Preferred Stock with
29

respect to dividend rights and rights upon the voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution, or winding up of the affairs of the Company. The Series B Preferred Stock is classified as redeemable convertible preferred stock on the condensed consolidated balance sheets due to a provision that a change in control or de-listing of the Company could require the Company to redeem the Series B Preferred Stock for cash at the election of the holder.

The Series B Preferred Stock is convertible, at the holder’s option, into shares of the Company’s common stock at a conversion price equal to $24.60$24.60 per share, subject to certain customary adjustments. The holders of Series B Preferred Stock have certain other rights including voting rights on an as converted basis, certain pre-emptive rights on private equity offerings by the Company, certain registration rights, and, in the case of certain holders, certain director designation rights, as provided in the certificate of designation governing the Series B Preferred Stock.

The Company may, at its option, effect conversion of the outstanding shares of Series B Preferred Stock to common stock, but only if the volume-weighted average price of the Company's common stock exceeds $36.90$36.90 per share for 15 consecutive trading days.

Dividends

The holders of Series B Preferred Stock are entitled to receive cumulative dividends at a rate of 5.5%5.5% as and when declared by the Board of Directors, prior and in preference to any declaration or payment of any dividend on the Company's common stock and Series A Preferred Stock. Series B Preferred Stock dividends are cumulative and accrued quarterly, in cash or in common stock, based on an annual 5.5%5.5% dividend rate. The Company declared a Series B Preferred Stock dividend of $11, or 584,584 shares of common stock, in December 2022 and issued $11the shares in January 2023. The Company declared a Series B Preferred Stock dividend of $11, or 739,015413,135 shares of common stock, and $33$11, or 1,944,939739,015 shares of common stock, during the three months ended September 30, 2023, and 2022, respectively. The Company declared and issued a Series B Preferred Stock dividend of $11, or 739,015 shares of common stock, during the three months ended September 30, 2022. The Company declared and issued a Series B Preferred Stock dividend of $22, or 935,285 shares of common stock, and $33, or 1,944,939 shares of common stock, during the nine months ended September 30, 2023, and 2022, respectively. If regular dividends are to be paid in shares of common stock, then each holder shall be entitled to receive such number of whole shares of common stock as is determined by dividing the pro rata amount of regular dividends to which a holder is entitled by the average price per share of common stock over the dividend determination period from dividend notice until the payment date.

Note 19. Share-based compensation

The Company maintains a 2019 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2019 Plan”), which allows for grants of share-based awards. The Company has issued Time-Based Restricted Stock Units ("RSUs"), Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units with EBITDA-based performance conditions (“PSUs”), and Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units with share-price targets ("MSUs"), which are all generally subject to forfeiture if employment terminates prior to vesting. Forfeitures are estimated and recorded using historical forfeiture rates. During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company awarded new RSUs, PSUs, and MSUs, detailed below.

Time-Based Restricted Stock Units

32


The RSUs entitle recipients to shares of the Company’s common stock and primarily vest in equal installments over a three-year service period from date of grant. The RSUs granted to the Company’s recipients vest ratably over the service period, generally on the anniversary date of their grant date. During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company granted 505,609 RSUs at a weighted average grant-date fair value of $19.41 per share. A total of 227,294 shares vested at a weighted average fair value of $14.35 per share during the nine months ended September 30, 2022.

Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units

EBITDA-based

The PSUs entitle the recipient to shares of the Company's common stock if specified performance conditions are achieved. During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company approved and granted PSUs with EBITDA-based financial performance conditions. PSUs vest, if at all, following a three-year performance period. If the performance conditions are not met, no compensation cost is recognized and any recognized compensation cost is reversed. During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company granted 545,122 PSUs at a weighted-average grant date fair value of $20.77.

Market-based

The MSUs entitle the recipient to shares of the Company's common stock if specified market conditions are achieved. During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company approved and granted 444,926 MSUs with certain share-price targets. Total MSUs granted during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 had a weighted-average grant date fair value of $16.31. The MSUs will vest 100%, if at all, on the later of March 9, 2025, the third anniversary of the grant date, and the date that such performance condition is satisfied (but no later than March 9, 2027). For awards subject to a market condition, the grant-date fair value is estimated using a Monte Carlo valuation model. The Company recognizes stock-based compensation expense for awards subject to market-based vesting conditions regardless of whether it becomes probable that these conditions will be achieved or not, and stock-based compensation expense for any such awards is not reversed if vesting does not actually occur. The Monte Carlo model is based on random projections of stock price paths and must be repeated numerous times to achieve a probabilistic assessment. Expected volatility is calculated based on the historical volatility and implied volatility of the Company's common stock, and the risk-free interest rate is based on U.S. Treasury yield curve rates with maturities consistent with the three-year vesting period. The key assumptions used in valuing these market-based awards were as follows:

Risk-free interest rate

1.85%

Dividend yield

                     —

Expected volatility

45%

The Company recognized compensation expense of $3 and $2 during the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and $10 and $6 during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, for the RSUs, PSUs, and MSUs in total. Total unrecognized compensation related to unvested RSUs, PSUs and MSUs as of September 30, 2022 was approximately $29, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of approximately 0.9 years, 1.7 years, and 2.4 years, respectively. The Company's actual tax benefits realized from the tax deductions related to the vesting of RSUs for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 was less than $1 and $2, respectively. The Company's actual tax benefits realized from the tax deductions related to the vesting of RSUs was less than $1 and $1, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 respectively.

Note 20. Earnings Per Share

NOTE 17. EARNINGS PER SHARE
Net income is allocated between the Company’s common shares and other participating securities based on their participation rights. The Series A Preferred Stock and Series B Preferred Stock represent participating securities. Earnings attributable to Series A Preferred Stock and Series B Preferred Stock are not included in earnings attributable to common shares in calculating earnings per common share (the two-class method). For periods of net loss, there is no impact from the two-class method on earnings per common share (“EPS”) as net loss is allocated to common shares because Series A Preferred Stock and Series B Preferred Stock shares are not contractually obligated to share the loss.
30

The following table sets forth the computation of earnings per common shareEPS using the two-class method. The dilutive effect of outstanding Series A Preferred Stock, the Series B Preferred Stock, the Series A Preferred Stock dividend, and the Series B Preferred Stock Dividenddividend is reflected in diluted EPS using the if-converted method and options, restricted shares, and performance shares are reflected using the treasury stock method. For periods of net loss, basic and diluted EPS are the same, as the assumed exercise of Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, restricted and performance shares, and stock options are anti-dilutive (amountsanti-dilutive.

Note 21. SEgment information

The Company has combined the leadership responsibility and full accountability for two of its operating segments. As a result, beginning in 2022, the information for the legacy Industrial Services segment was combined with the legacy Specialty Services segment to form a new operating and reportable segment called Specialty Services. Accordingly, the Company presents financial information for the Safety Services and Specialty Services segments, the two operating segments and also the reportable segments. Refer to Note 2 - "Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies" for more information. The information in the tables below has been retroactively adjusted to reflect these changes in reporting segments.

NOTE 18. SEGMENT INFORMATION
The Company manages its operations under two operating segments which represent the Company’s two reportable segments: Safety Services and Specialty Services. This structure is generally focused on various businesses related to contracting services and maintenance of industrial and commercial facilities. Both reportable segments derive their revenues from installation, inspection, maintenance, service and repair, retrofitting and upgrading, engineering and design, distribution, fabrication, and various types of other services in approximately over 20 countries.

The Safety Services segment focuses on end-to-end integrated occupancy systems (fire protection solutions, HVAC, and entry systems), including design, installation, inspection, and service of these integrated systems. The work performed within this segment spans across industries and facilities and includes commercial, education, healthcare, high tech,high-tech, industrial and special-hazard settings.

The Specialty Services segment provides a variety of infrastructure services and specialized industrial plant services, which includesinclude maintenance and repair of critical infrastructure such as underground electric, gas, water, sewer, and telecommunications infrastructure. This segment’s services include engineering and design, fabrication, installation, maintenance service and repair, retrofitting and upgrading, pipeline infrastructure, access and road construction, supporting facilities, and performing ongoing integrity management and maintenance to customers within the energy industry. Customers within this segment vary from private and public utilities, communications, healthcare, education, transportation, manufacturing, industrial plants, and governmental agencies throughout North America.

The accounting policies of the reportable segments are the same as those described in Note 21 – “Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies.” All intercompany transactions and balances are eliminated in consolidation. Intercompany revenues and costs between entities within a reportable segment are eliminated to arrive at segment totals and eliminations between segments are separately presented. Corporate results include amounts related to corporate functions such as administrative costs, professional fees, acquisition-related transaction costs (exclusive of acquisition integration costs, which are included within the segment results of the acquired businesses), and other discrete items.

Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”) is the measure of profitability used by management to manage its segments and, accordingly, in its segment reporting. As appropriate, the Company supplements the reporting of consolidated financial information determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP with certain non-U.S. GAAP financial measures, including EBITDA. The Company believes these non-U.S. GAAP measures provide meaningful information and help investors understand the Company’s financial results and assess its prospects for future performance. The Company uses EBITDA to evaluate its performance, both internally and as compared with its peers because it excludes certain items that may not be indicative of the Company’s core operating results for its reportable segments. Segment EBITDA is calculated in a manner consistent with consolidated EBITDA.

Summarized financial information for the Company’s reportable segments is presented and reconciled to consolidated financial information in the following tables, including a reconciliation of consolidated operating income (loss) to EBITDA:

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

This Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (“MD&A”) section should be read in conjunction with the Interim Statementsinterim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements (the "Interim Statements") and related notes included in this quarterly report, and the Consolidated Financial Statements,Company's 2023 audited annual consolidated financial statements, the related notes thereto and under the MD&A sectionheading "Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" and other disclosures contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, including financial results for the year ended December 31, 2021.2022. This discussion contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Actual results may differ materially from those discussed in these forward-looking statements. Factors that might cause a difference include, but are not limited to, those discussed under the “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward Looking Statements” section of this quarterly report.

We prepare our financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). To supplement our financial results presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP in this MD&A section, we present EBITDA, which is a non-U.S. GAAP financial measure, to assist readers in understanding our performance and provide an additional perspective on trends and underlying operating results on a period-to-period comparable basis. Non-U.S. GAAP financial measures either exclude or include amounts not reflected in the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Where a non-U.S. GAAP financial measure is used, we have provided the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP, a reconciliation to the U.S. GAAP measure and a discussion of the reasons why management believes this information is useful to it and may be useful to investors.

Unless the context otherwise requires, all references in this section to “APG”, the “Company”, “we”, “us”, and “our” refer to APi Group Corporation and its subsidiaries.

Overview

APG is

We are a global, market-leading business services provider of safety and specialty services in over 500 locations worldwide. We provide statutorily mandated and other contracted services to a strong base of long-standing customers across industries. We have a winning leadership culture driven by entrepreneurial business leaders that deliver innovative solutions to our customers.

We operate our business under two primary operating segments, which are also our reportable segments:

Safety Services – A leading provider of safety services in North America, Asia Pacific, and Europe, focusing on end-to-end integrated occupancy systems (fire protection solutions, Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning (“HVAC”) and entry systems), including design, installation, inspection and service of these integrated systems. The work performed within this segment spans across industries and facilities and includes commercial, education, healthcare, high tech,high-tech, industrial and special-hazard settings.
Specialty Services – A leading provider of a variety of infrastructure services and specialized industrial plant services, which include maintenance and repair of critical infrastructure such as underground electric, gas, water, sewer and telecommunications infrastructure. Our services include engineering and design, fabrication, installation, maintenance service and repair, retrofitting and upgrading, pipeline infrastructure, access and road construction, supporting facilities, and performing ongoing integrity management and maintenance to customers within the energy industry. Customers within this segment vary from private and public utilities, communications, healthcare, education, transportation, manufacturing, industrial plants, and governmental agencies throughout North America.

We focus on growing our recurring revenues and repeat business from our diversified long-standing customers across a variety of end markets, which we believe provides us with stable cash flows and a platform for organic growth. We believe maintenance and service revenues are generally more predictable through contractual arrangements with typical terms ranging from days to three years, with the majority having short durations and are often recurring due to consistent renewal rates and long-standing customer relationships.

Recent Developments and Certain Factors and Trends Affecting our ResultsTable of OperationsContents

RECENT DEVELOPMENTS AND CERTAIN FACTORS AND TRENDS AFFECTING OUR RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Restructuring

During 2022, we initiated aannounced our multi-year Chubb restructuring program designed to drive efficiencies and synergies and optimize operating margin. We recorded totalThe Chubb restructuring program includes expenses related to workforce reductions, lease termination costs, and other facility rationalization costs through fiscal year 2024.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, we have incurred pre-tax restructuring costs within the Safety Services segment of $7 and $18, of which $2 and $4 million was recorded in cost of revenues and $5 and $14$21 million in selling, general, and administrative expenses onconnection with the condensed consolidated statementsChubb restructuring program. In total, we estimate that we will recognize approximately $105 million of operations forrestructuring costs related to the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, respectively. The amounts recognized inChubb restructuring program by the period primarily relate to costs associated with workforce reductions. Asend of September 30, 2022, we had $11 million in restructuring liabilities recorded in other accrued liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets for this plan, which we expect to pay within the next three to six months.

fiscal year 2024.

For additional information about our restructuring activity, see Note 5 – “Restructuring" to our condensed consolidated financial statements included herein.

Acquisitions

On January 3, 2022,

Assets held for sale
During the three months ended September 30, 2023, we completed the acquisition of the Chubb fire and security business (the "Chubb Acquisition"). The total net consideration for the Chubb Acquisition was $2,893 million for the stock purchase of the Chubb fire and security business (the "Chubb business"). The Chubb business is a globally recognized fire safety and security services provider, offering customers complete and reliable services from design and installationdetermined our intent to monitoring and on-going maintenance and recurring services. We expect the Chubb business will be a core asset withinsell an infrastructure/utility operating company in our Safety Services segment, and will provide meaningful opportunities for future value creation through providing complementary revenue growth by expanding our opportunities for cross-selling products and services across our key end markets.

For additional information about our acquisition activity, see Note 4 – “Business Combinations" to our condensed consolidated financial statements included herein.

Resegmentation

We have combined the leadership responsibility and full accountability for our Industrial Services and Specialty Services operating segments. As a result, beginning in 2022, the information for our legacy Industrial Services segment was combined with the legacy Specialty Services segment to form a new operating(the "Operating Company"). We classified the net book value of the Operating Company as held for sale in the condensed consolidated balance sheets with the assets recorded in prepaid expenses and reportable segment called Specialty Services. Accordingly, we present financial informationother current assets and liabilities recorded in other accrued liabilities. As of September 30, 2023, the Operating Company remains classified as held for the Safety Services and Specialty Services segments, our two operating segments and also our reportable segments. Our chief operating decision maker regularly reviews financial information to allocate resources and assess performance utilizing these reorganized segments.

Certain prior year amounts have been recast to conformsale. Pursuant to the current year presentationauthoritative literature, we evaluated the recoverability of the carrying value of the assets and liabilities held for sale. During the information in the tables below has been retroactively adjusted to reflect these changes in reporting segments.

three months ended September 30, 2023, we recorded an impairment charge of $13 million.

Economic, Industry and Market Factors

We closely monitor the effects of general changes in economic and market conditions on our customers. General economic and market conditions can negatively affect demand for our customers’ products and services, which can affect their planned capital and maintenance budgets in certain end markets. Market, regulatory, and industry factors could affect demand for our services. Availability of transportation and transmission capacity and fluctuations in market prices for energy and other fuel sources can also affect demand for our services for pipeline and power generation construction services. These fluctuations, as well as the highly competitive nature of our industries, have resulted and may continue to result, in lower proposals and lower profit on the services we provide. In the face of increased pricing pressure on key materials, such as steel, or other market developments, we strive to maintain our profit margins through productivity improvements, cost reduction programs, pricing adjustments, and business streamlining efforts. Increased competition for skilled labor resources and higher labor costs can reduce our profitability and impact our ability to deliver timely service to our customers. We have experienced supply chain disruptions, which have negatively impacted the source and supply of materials needed to perform our work. Additionally, the COVID-19 pandemic has impacted the availability of skilled labor resources, particularly in our international businesses, interrupting our ability to perform our services and execute our jobs. In addition, fluctuations in foreign currencies may have an impact on our financial position and the results of operations. However, we believe that our exposure to transactional gains or losses resulting from changes in foreign currencies is limited because our foreign operations primarily invoice and collect receivables in their respective local or functional currencies, and the expenses associated with these transactions are generally contracted and paid for in the same local currencies. In cases where operational transactions represent a material currency risk, we generally enter into cross-currency swaps. Refer to Note 9 - "Derivatives" to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in this quarterly report for additional information on our hedging activities. While we actively monitor economic, industry, and market factors that could affect our business, we cannot predict the effect that changes in such factors may have on our future consolidated results of operations, liquidity, and cash flows, and we may be unable to fully mitigate, or benefit from such changes.

Russia-Ukraine conflict

While we continue to monitor the conflict in Ukraine, there has not been any direct, material impact on our operations as we do not have any customers or operations in Russia or Ukraine. Should the conflict escalate beyond its current scope, the precise impacts on our business are difficult to predict but could include increased direct costs of materials and labor; increased credit or other capital costs; and impacts on demand for our services, which could include increased demand for our services related to energy production outside of the conflict area but that could also include a reduction in demand in other geographies or markets.

Effect of Seasonality and Cyclical Nature of Business

Our net revenues and results of operations can be subject to variability stemming from seasonalityseasonal and industry cyclicality.other variations. Seasonal variations are primarily related to large, non-recurring projects that can be influenced by weather conditions impacting customer spending patterns, contract award seasons, and project schedules, as well as the timing of holidays. Consequently, net revenues for our businesses are typically lower during the first and second quartersquarter due to the prevalence of unfavorable weather conditions within our North American operations, which can cause project delays and affect productivity.

Additionally, the industries we serve can be cyclical. Fluctuations in end-user demand, or in the supply of services within those industries, can affect demand for our services. As a result, our business may be adversely affected by industry declines or by delays in new projects. Variations or unanticipated changes in project schedules in connection with large projects can create fluctuations in net revenues.

Description of Key Line Items K

EY LINE ITEMS

Net revenues

Net revenues are generated from the sale of various types of contracted services, fabrication and distribution. We derive net revenues primarily from services under contractual arrangements with durations ranging from days to three years, with the majority having durations of less than six months, and which may provide the customer with pricing options that include a combination of fixed, unit, or time and material pricing. Net revenues for fixed price agreements are generally recognized over time using the cost-to-cost method of accounting which measures progress based on the cost incurred to total expected cost in satisfying our performance obligation.

Net revenues from time and material contracts are recognized as the services are provided. Net revenues earned are based on total contract costs incurred plus an agreed upon markup. Net revenues for these cost-plus contracts are recognized over time on an input basis as labor hours are incurred, materials are utilized, and services are performed. Net revenues from wholesale or retail unit sales are recognized at a point-in-time upon shipment.

Cost of revenues

Cost of revenues consists of direct labor, materials, subcontract costs and indirect costs related to contract performance, such as indirect labor, supplies, tools, repairs and depreciation costs. Labor costs are considered to be incurred as the work is performed. Subcontractor labor is recognized as the work is performed.

Gross profit

Our gross profit is influenced by direct labor, materials, and subcontract costs. Our profit margins are also influenced by raw material costs, contract mix, weather, and proper coordination with contract providers. Labor intensiveLabor-intensive contracts usually drive higher margins than those contracts that include material, subcontract, and equipment costs.

Selling, general, and administrative expenses ("SG&A")

Selling expenses consist primarily of compensation and associated costs for sales and marketing personnel, costs of advertising, trade shows, and corporate marketing. General and administrative expenses consist primarily of compensation and associated costs for executive management, personnel, facility leases, administrative expenses associated with accounting, finance, legal, information systems, leadership development, human resources, and risk management, and overhead associated with these functions. General and administrative expenses also include outside professional fees and other corporate expenses.

Amortization of intangible assets

Amortization expense reflects the charges incurred to amortize our finite-lived identifiable intangible assets, such as customer relationships, which are amortized over their estimated useful lives. There is a portion of amortization expense related to the backlog intangible assets reflected in cost of revenues in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

(Gain) loss

Loss on extinguishment of debt, net

(Gain) loss

Loss on extinguishment of debt, net reflects the difference between the repurchase price and carrying amount of debt at the time of extinguishment.
40

Non-service pension benefit

Non-service pension benefit reflects the sum of the components of pension expense not related to service cost, i.e. interest cost, expected return on assets, and amortizations of prior service costs and actuarial gains and losses.

Interest expense, net

Interest expense was $88$112 million and $43$88 million for the nine months ended September 30, 20222023 and 2021,2022, respectively. The increase in interest expense was primarily due to increased debt related to the financing of the Chubb Acquisition and higher interest rates due to a larger proportion ofon our floating interest rate debt in the current year.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

We supplement our reporting of consolidated financial information determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP with SG&A expenses (excluding amortization)amortization and impairment) and EBITDA (defined below), which are non-U.S. GAAP financial measures. We use these non-U.S. GAAP financial measures to evaluate our performance, both internally and as compared with our peers because they exclude certain items that may not be indicative of our core operating results. Management believes these measures are useful to investors since they (a) permit investors to view our performance using the same tools that management uses to evaluate our past performance, reportable business segments, and prospects for future performance, (b) permit investors to compare us with our peers, and (c) in the case of EBITDA, determines certain elements of management’s incentive compensation.

These non-U.S. GAAP financial measures, however, have limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation from, a substitute for, or superior to, the related financial information we report in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The principal limitation of these non-U.S. GAAP financial measuremeasures is that they exclude significant expenses required by U.S. GAAP to be recorded in our financial statements and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies due to potential differences in calculation methods. In addition, these measures are subject to inherent

limitations as they reflect the exercise of judgment by management about which items are excluded or included in determining these non-U.S. GAAP financial measures. Investors are encouraged to review the following reconciliations of these non-U.S. GAAP financial measures to the most comparable U.S. GAAP financial measures and not to rely on any single financial measure to evaluate our business.

SG&A expenses (excluding amortization)

amortization and impairment)

SG&A expenses (excluding amortization)amortization and impairment) is a measure of operating costs used by management to manage the business and its segments. We believe this non-U.S. GAAP measure provides meaningful information and helps investors understand our core selling, general, and administrative expenses excluding acquisition-related amortization expense and impairment charges to better enable investors to understand our financial results and assess our prospects for future performance.

EBITDA

Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (“EBITDA”) is the measure of profitability used by management to manage its segments and, accordingly, in its segment reporting. We supplement the reporting of our consolidated financial information with EBITDA. We believe this non-U.S. GAAP measure provides meaningful information and helps investors understand our financial results and assess our prospects for future performance. Consolidated EBITDA is calculated in a manner consistent with segment EBITDA, which is a measure of segment profitability.

Liquidity and Capital Resources R

ESOURCES

Overview

Our primary sources of liquidity are cash flows from the operating activities of our consolidated subsidiaries, available cash and cash equivalents, our access to our Revolving$500 million five-year senior secured revolving credit facility (the "Revolving Credit FacilityFacility") and the proceeds from debt offerings. We believe these sources will be sufficient to fund our liquidity requirements for at least the next twelve months. Although we believe we have sufficient resources to fund our future cash requirements, there are many factors with the potential to influence our cash flow position including weather, seasonality, commodity prices, market conditions, and inflation, over which we have no control.

As of September 30, 2022,2023, we had $819$945 million of total liquidity, comprising $395$461 million in cash and cash equivalents and $424$484 million ($500 million less outstanding letters of credit of approximately $76$16 million, which reduce availability) of available borrowings under our Revolving Credit Facility. On January 3,
During 2022, we issued and sold 800,000 shares of Series B Preferred Stock (defined below) for an aggregate purchase price of $800 million, and entered into an amendment to our credit agreement. As part of this amendment, we incurredentered into a $1,100 million seven-year incremental term loan ("2021 Term Loan"), the Revolving Credit Facility was upsized by $200 million to $500 million, the maturity date of the Revolving Credit Facility was extended five years, and the letter of credit sublimit was increased by $100 million to $250 million.

During September 2021, we issued 22,716,049 shares of our common stock in a public underwritten offering. The proceeds from this offering totaled approximately $446 million, net of related expenses. We used the net proceeds from this offering for general corporate purposes, which includes items such as other business opportunities, capital expenditures and working capital.

We expect to continue to be able to access the capital markets through equity and debt offerings for liquidity purposes as needed. Our principal liquidity requirements have been, and we expect will be, any accrued consideration duecontinue to selling shareholders, including tax payments in connection therewith,be, for working capital and general corporate purposes, including capital expenditures and debt service, any accrued consideration and compensation due to selling shareholders, including tax payments in connection therewith, as well as to identify, execute, and integrate strategic acquisitions and business transformation.

transformation transactions or initiatives.

In March 2022, we announced that our Board of Directors authorized a stock repurchase program, authorizing the purchase of up to an aggregate of $250 million of shares of common stock through February 2024. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022,2023, we repurchased 738,572656,489 and 1,951,3321,626,493 shares of common stock for aggregate payments of approximately $11$18 million and $33$41 million respectively, under this stock repurchase program, respectively, leaving approximately $217$166 million of authorized repurchases.

Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities

Net cash provided by operating activities was $82$217 million for the nine months ended September 30, 20222023 compared to $68$82 million of cash used for the same period in 2021.2022. The increase in cash flows provided by operating activities is primarily due to an increase in net income in the period. This increase in cash provided is partially offsetalso driven by lower working capital needs associated with the various services we provided in the nine months ended September 30, 2023 compared to the same period of the prior year. Cash flow from operations is primarily driven by changes in the mix and timing of demand for our services and working capital needs associated with the various services we provide. Working capital is primarily affected by changes in total accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued expenses, and contract assets and contract liabilities, all of which tend to be related and are affected by changes in the timing and volume of work performed. During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, operating cash flows were impacted by inflationary pressures and supply chain disruptions leading to anThe increase in the required level of working capital investment needed to ensure we have materials available to meet our growth in sales volumes, as well as higher levels of spending related to acquisition and integration costs. Further, the increasecash provided by operating activities in the cost of our debt driven by new debt issuances that occurred during the later half of 2021 and the first half of 2022, andcurrent year is also due to a one-time contribution to an assumed pension plansplan of $27 million were factors in our increased cash provided by operating activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 compared to the same period in the prior year.

The increasedecrease in cash provided by financing activities was primarily driven by equity and debt issuances in the nine months ended September 30, 2022 related to the Chubb Acquisition. In the nine months ended September 30, 2022, cash provided by financing activities was higher due to $1,104 million of proceeds from the issuance of the 2021 Term Loan and other debt, and $797 million of proceeds from the issuance of Series B Preferred Stock.

Senior Notes

We

On June 22, 2021, APi Group DE completed a private offering of $350 million aggregate principal amount of 4.125% Senior Notes due 2029 (the “4.125% Senior Notes”), issued under an indenture, dated June 22, 2021. The 4.125% Senior Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by us and certain of our subsidiaries. The 4.125% Senior Notes will mature on July 15, 2029, unless redeemed earlier, and bear interest at a rate of 4.125% per year until maturity, payable semi-annually in arrears.

As of September 30, 2022,2023, we had $277 million aggregate principal amount of 4.750% Senior Notes outstanding.

Debt Covenants

We were in compliance with all covenants contained in the indentures governing the 4.125% Senior Notes and 4.750% Senior Notes and Credit Agreement as of September 30, 20222023 and December 31, 2021.

2022.

Issuance of Series B Preferred Stock

On January 3,

During 2022, concurrent with the closing of the Chubb Acquisition, we issued and sold 800,000 shares of our 5.5% Series B Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the "Series B Preferred Stock"), for an aggregate purchase price of $800 million, pursuant to securities purchase agreements entered into on July 26, 2021 with certain investors. The net proceeds from the Series B Preferred Stock issuance were used to fund a portion of the consideration for the Chubb Acquisition.

The holders of the Series B Preferred Stock are entitled to dividends at the rate of 5.5% per annum, payable in cash or common stock, at our election. The Series B Preferred Stock ranks senior to our common stock and Series A Preferred Stock with respect to dividend rights and rights upon the voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution, or winding up of our affairs.

The Series B Preferred Stock is convertible, at the holder’s option, into shares of our common stock at a conversion price equal to $24.60 per share, subject to certain customary adjustments. The holders of Series B Preferred Stock have certain other rights including voting rights on an as-converted basis, certain pre-emptive rights on our private equity offerings, certain registration rights, and, in the case of certain holders, certain director designation rights, as provided in the certificate of designation governing the Series B Preferred Stock.

QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Interest rate risk

As of September 30, 2022,2023, our outstanding variable interest rate debt was primarily related to our 2019 Term Loan and our 2021 Term Loan, and our Revolving Credit Facility.Loan. As of September 30, 2022, excluding letters of credit outstanding of $76 million,2023, we had no amounts of outstanding revolving loans, $1,127$1,027 million outstanding on the 2019 Term Loan and $1,085$985 million outstanding on the 2021 Term Loan. AsOn October 11, 2023, we made a repayment of September 30, 2022,$100 million on the 2019 Term Loan concurrent with the close of the repricing transaction. Following the repricing transaction, we hadhave $505 million outstanding on 2019 Term Loan and $1,407 million outstanding on the 2021 Term Loan. To mitigate increases in variable interest rates, we have a $720 million four-year interest rate swap, with respect to $720 million of notional value of the 2019 Term Loan, exchanging one-month LIBORSOFR for a rate of 3.64%3.59% per annum and a $400 million five-year interest rate swap exchanging one-month SOFR for a rate of 3.41% per annum. ThisIn

addition, interest expense will be offset by the amortization through October 2024 of the remaining gain of $33$18 million recognized from the termination of the previously outstanding $720 million notional amount interest rate swap resulting in an effective rate onswap. After the $720 million of notional value ofrepricing transaction, the 2019 Term Loan of 3.97%. The remaining floating $407 million of our 2019 Term Loan balancerate portfolio will bear interest at 6.25% per annum based on one-month LIBORSOFR plus CSA plus 225 basis points or one-month SOFR plus CSA plus 250 basis points. The 2021 Term Loan balance will bear interest at 6.50% per annum based on one-month LIBOR plus 275 basis points, but the rate will fluctuate as LIBOR fluctuates.

Additionally, during 2021,As of September 30, 2023, excluding letters of credit outstanding of $16 million, we entered into a euro-denominated net investment hedge with a notional valuehad no amounts of $230 million. The net investment hedge reduces our overall effective interest rate by approximately 24 basis points. A 100-basis point increase in the applicable interest ratesoutstanding revolving loans under our credit facilities (including the unhedged portion of our 2019 Term Loan debt) would have increased our interest expense by approximately $11 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022.

While we cannot predict our ability to refinance existing debt or the impact interest rate movements will have on our existing debt, we continue to evaluate our financial position on an ongoing basis. The ICE Benchmark Administration intends to cease the publication of U.S. dollar LIBOR for all tenors (excluding 1 week and 2 month) on June 30, 2023. The discontinuation of the 1 month LIBOR after 2023 and the replacement with an alternative reference rate, such as the Secured Overnight Financing Rate may adversely impact interest rates and our interest expense could increase.

Foreign currency risk

Our

We have operations are in approximatelyover 20 countries globally. Revenues generated from foreign operations represented approximately 35% and 38%37% of our consolidated net revenues for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, respectively.2023. Net revenues and expenses related to our foreign operations are, for the most part, denominated in the functional currency of the foreign operation, which minimizes the impact fluctuations in exchange rates would have on net income or loss. We are subject to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates when transactions are denominated in currencies other than the functional currencies. Such transactions were not material to our operations during the nine months ended September 30, 2022.2023. These foreign currency transaction gains and losses, including hedging impacts, are classified in investment income and other, net, in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and were a gain (loss) of $0 million for both the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, and $0 million and $(2) million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. These net foreign currency transaction gains and losses include derivative instruments designed to reduce foreign currency exchange rate risks. Translation gains or losses, which are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss in the condensed consolidated balance sheets, result from translation of the assets and liabilities of our foreign subsidiaries into U.S. dollars. Foreign currency translation lossesgains (losses) totaled approximately $86$(63) million and $9$(86) million for the three months ended September 30, 20222023 and 2021,2022, respectively, and $311$(22) million and $9$(311) million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, and 2021, respectively.

Our exposure to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates has increased as a result of the Chubb Acquisition and may continue to increase in the future if we continue to expand our operations outside of the U.S. We seek to manage foreign currency exposure by minimizing our consolidated net assets and liability positions in currencies other than the functional currency of our foreign subsidiaries. However, we believe that our exposure to transactional gains or losses resulting from fluctuations in foreign currencies is limited because our foreign operations primarily invoice and collect receivables in their respective local or functional currencies, and the expenses associated with these transactions are generally contracted and paid for in the same local currencies. In order to manage foreign currency risk related to transactions in foreign currencies and the Chubb business intercompany financing structure, we entered into cross-currency swaps to manage the foreign currency risk of certain intercompany loans. We also occasionally use foreign currency contracts as a way to mitigate foreign currency exposure.

Other market risk

We are also exposed to market risks impacting our customer base due to the potential related impact on accounts receivable or contract assets on uncompleted contracts. The amounts recorded may be at risk if our customers’ ability to pay these obligations is negatively impacted by economic conditions. We continually monitor the creditworthiness of our customers and maintain ongoing discussions with customers regarding contract status with respect to change orders and billing terms. Therefore, management believes it takes appropriate action to manage market and other risks, but there is no assurance management will be able to reasonably identify all risks with respect to the collectability of these assets. See also “Revenue Recognition from Contracts with Customers” under the heading "Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Critical Accounting Policies section ofEstimates" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021.

2022.

In addition, we are exposed to various supply chain risks, including the market risk of price fluctuations or availability of copper, steel, cable optic fiber, and other materials used as components of supplies or materials utilized in our operations. We are also exposed to increases in energy prices, particularly as they relate to gasoline prices for our vehicle fleet. Disruptions in our supply chain can occur due to market inefficiencies but can also be driven by other events, like cybersecurity breaches, pandemics, or similar disruptive events. While we believe we can increase our contract prices to adjust for some price increases in commodities, there can be no assurance that such price increases, if they were to occur, would be recoverable. Additionally, some of our fixed price contracts do not allow us to adjust prices and, as a result, increases in material costs could reduce profitability with respect to projects in progress.

Significant declines in market prices for oil, and gas, and other fuel sources may also impact our operations. Prolonged periods of low oil and gas prices may result in projects being delayed or cancelled and incanceled. In a low oil and gas price environment, certain of our businesses could become less profitable or incur losses.

ITEM 4. Controls and Procedures

CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating such controls and procedures, we recognize that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives.

As required by Rule 13a-15(b) of the Exchange Act, our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, have evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are not effective atas of September 30, 20222023 due to the material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting described below, which were previously disclosed in Item 9A. “Controls and Procedures” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.

2022.

Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives as specified above. However, our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures will prevent or detect all errors and fraud. Any control system, no matter how well designed and operated, is based upon certain assumptions and can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that its objectives will be met. Further, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that misstatements due to error or fraud will not occur or that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within our Company have been detected.

Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Management

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Rule 13a‑15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act. Under the supervision of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, management conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of September 30, 20222023 based on the guidelines established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework (2013 Framework) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on this evaluation, our management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of September 30, 20222023 due to the material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting identified and further described below.

Material Weaknesses in Internal Control

A material weakness (as defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Exchange Act) is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of a company’s annual or interim consolidated financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

We continue to have previously identified control deficiencies that are not remediated as of September 30, 20222023 related to user access controls related to an ineffective control environment, ineffectiveinformation technology system which resulted from insufficient risk assessment and ineffective information and communication resulting from an insufficient number of trained resources with expertise in implementation and operation of internal controlprocess level controls over financial reporting and information technology systems.revenue recognition, which resulted from insufficient training. As a result of the Company had ineffectiveuser access control activities related todeficiencies, process level controls at certain entities that use information from the design and operation of process-level controls and general information technology controls across all financial reporting processes.affected system cannot be relied upon. These control deficiencies constitute material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting as of September 30, 2023.
Ongoing Remediation Plan
Management has undertaken various steps to continue remediating such control deficiencies and has seen improved results versus December 31, 2022. Steps taken by us during the three months ended September 30, 2023 include the following:

59Performed weekly and monthly monitoring of privileged access activity;

Conducted training with operating company personnel related to required level of documentation and proper review of estimates related to revenue recognition; and
55

Performed corporate level review of high risk contracts and their related revenue recognition documentation.
We plan to continue our efforts to strengthen our internal control over financial reporting and are committed to ensuring that such controls are operating effectively. We are implementing process and control improvements to address the above material weakness as follows:
Continue to conduct ongoing training with control owners and reviewers within operations and finance with a specific focus on sufficient documentation and evidence in the execution of the controls; and
Conduct an evaluation of information technology general controls ("ITGCs") and related policies, with a focus on risk assessment procedures and controls related to access to information technology ("IT") systems and implement an IT management review and testing plan to monitor ITGCs with a specific focus on systems supporting our financial reporting processes.
As anticipated, a remediation effort of this magnitude takes multiple years to complete and we have made significant progress with the Company’s multi-year remediation plans. Based on this progress, management believes full remediation of current material weaknesses can be achieved by year-end. In addition, under the direction of the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors, we will continue to review and make necessary changes to the overall design of the Company’s internal control environment, as well as to refine policies and procedures to improve the overall effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting of the Company.
The material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting will not be considered remediated until the remediated controls operate for a sufficient period of time and management has concluded, through testing, that these controls are operating effectively. No system of controls, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide absolute assurance that the objectives of the system of controls will be met, and no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control deficiencies or material weaknesses have been or will be detected. There is no assurance that the remediation will be fully effective. As described above, these material weaknesses have not been remediated as of the filing date of this quarterly report. If these remediation efforts do not prove effective and control deficiencies and material weaknesses persist or occur in the future, the accuracy and timing of our financial reporting may be adversely affected.
Changes in Internal Control Overover Financial Reporting

We are executing our remediation plans to remediate the material weaknesses relating to our internal control over financial reporting, as described below. These plans include a detailed risk and controls assessment, key process walkthroughs and flowchart documentation, training, and execution of determined key controls. There wereabove. Other than changes described above, there have been no material changes to ourin the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) underof the Securities Exchange Act) that occurredAct of 1934, as amended) during the quarter ended September 30, 20222023 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, ourthe Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

Management’s Remediation Plans

Management has undertaken various steps to continue remediating such control deficiencies and has seen improved results versus December 31, 2021. Given an effortTable of this magnitude, management believes that full remediation will most likely continue to extend over the next couple of years. The material weaknesses will not be considered remediated until management designs and implements effective controls that operate for a sufficient period of time and management has concluded through testing that these controls are effective. We are monitoring the effectiveness of our remediation plans and will make the changes management determines to be appropriate. Steps taken by us during the three months ended September 30, 2022 include the following:Contents

internal audit continued to assess and document the adequacy of internal control over financial reporting, document steps to improve control processes, conduct testing of controls, and implement continuous reporting for internal control over financial reporting;
continued hiring additional members to our accounting and finance team with the appropriate qualified experience in financial reporting, consolidations, technical accounting, and application of U.S. GAAP;
enhanced controls, procedures, and processes in our financial consolidation and reporting processes;
enhanced controls over critical processes, including revenue recognition, purchase accounting and financial reporting, and the related information technology systems; and
identified and designed controls to address segregation of duties issues.

We plan to continue our efforts to improve, design and implement integrated processes to enhance our internal control over financial reporting, including:

providing additional training and education programs for personnel responsible for the performance of newly implemented processes and controls to enhance our control environment;
adding additional qualified resources to our accounting and finance teams with appropriate qualified experience to enhance our control environment and risk assessment processes;
refining and enhancing certain existing controls and adding new controls to strengthen our risk assessment process; and
continue our efforts to improve our financial systems and enhance our information and communication controls.
