FLEETCOR Technologies, Inc. and Subsidiaries
Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements
September 30, 20172023
1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
Throughout this report,Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the terms “our,” “we,” “us,”"our," "we," "us," and the “Company”"Company" refers to FleetCorFLEETCOR Technologies, Inc. and its subsidiaries. The Company prepared the accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements in accordance with Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, certain information and note disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to those rules and regulations, although we believe that the disclosures made are adequate to make the information not misleading. In our opinion, the unaudited interim consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments considered necessary for fair presentation. These adjustments consist of normal recurring accruals and estimates that impact the carrying value of assets and liabilities. Actual results may differ from these estimates. Operating results for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2017 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2017.
The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016.2022.
Use of estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. Future events and their effects cannot be predicted with certainty; accordingly, accounting estimates require the exercise of judgment. These financial statements were prepared using information reasonably available to us as of September 30, 2023 and through the date of this Quarterly Report. The accounting estimates used in the preparation of the Company’s interim consolidated financial statements may change as new events occur, as more experience is acquired, as additional information is obtained and as the Company’s operating environment changes. Actual results may differ from these estimates due to the uncertainty around the ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine, the impact of changes to monetary policy, as well as other factors.

Based on our assessment of the capital market conditions and related impact on our access to facilitate cross-currency corporatecash prior to the Russia disposition, we had reclassified all cash held at our Russia business of $215.8 million at December 31, 2022 to restricted cash.
Financial Instruments - Credit Losses
The Company accounts for financial assets' expected credit losses in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 326, "Financial Instruments - Credit Losses". The Company’s financial assets subject to credit losses are primarily trade receivables. The Company utilizes a combination of aging and loss-rate methods to develop an estimate of current expected credit losses, depending on the nature and risk profile of the underlying asset pool, based on product, size of customer and historical losses. Expected credit losses are estimated based upon an assessment of risk characteristics, historical payment experience, and the age of outstanding receivables, adjusted for forward-looking economic conditions. The allowances for remaining financial assets measured at amortized cost basis are evaluated based on underlying financial condition, credit history, and current and forward-looking economic conditions. The estimation process for expected credit losses includes consideration of qualitative and quantitative risk factors associated with the age of asset balances, expected timing of payment, contract terms and conditions, changes in specific customer risk profiles or mix of customers, geographic risk, economic trends and relevant environmental factors.
Revenue
The Company provides payment solutions to our business, merchant, consumer and payment network customers. Our payment solutions are primarily focused on specific commercial spend or geographically defined categories, including Fleet, Corporate Payments, Lodging, Brazil and Other (stored value cards and e-cards). The Company provides solutions that help businesses of all sizes control, simplify and secure payment of various domestic and cross-border payables using specialized payment products. The Company also provides other payment solutions for fleet maintenance, employee benefits and long haul transportation-related services.

The majority of this business' revenue is from exchanges of currency at spot rates, which enable customers to make cross-currency payments. In addition, this business, alsothe Company writes foreign currency forward and option derivative contracts for its customers to facilitate future payments.payments in foreign currencies. These contracts are accounted for in accordance with ASC 815, "Derivatives and Hedging" and represent approximately 9% and 8% of total consolidated revenues for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, respectively. Additionally, the Company accounts for revenue from late fees and finance charges, in jurisdictions where permitted under local regulations, primarily in the U.S. and Canada in accordance with ASC 310, "Receivables". Such fees are recognized net of a provision for estimated uncollectible amounts, at the time the fees and finance charges are assessed and services are provided and represent approximately 4% and 5% of total consolidated revenues, net for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023. The durationCompany's remaining revenue represents float revenue earned on invested customer funds in jurisdictions where permitted. Our revenue is generally reported net of the cost for underlying products and services purchased through our payment solutions. In this report, we refer to this net revenue as "revenue".

Adoption of New Accounting Standards
Revenue Recognition
In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)." The core principle of ASU 2014-09 is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. ASU 2014-09 will replace most existing revenue recognition guidance in GAAP and permits the use of either the retrospective or modified retrospective transition method. The update requires significant additional disclosure about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from customer contracts, including significant judgments and changes in judgments. ASU 2014-09, as amended by ASU 2015-14, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Deferral of the Effective Date," is effective for years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods, with early adoption permitted for years beginning after December 15, 2016. Since the issuance of ASU 2014-09, the FASB has issued additional interpretive guidance, including new accounting standards updates, that clarifies certain points of the standard and modifies certain requirements.

The Company has performed a review of the requirements of the new revenue standard and is monitoring the activity of the FASBFlows, and the transition resource group as it relates to specific interpretive guidance. The Company established an implementation team to assess the effects of the new revenue standard in a multi-phase approach. In the first phase, the Company is analyzing customer contracts for its most significant contract categories, applied the five-step model of the new standard to each contract category and comparing the results to our current accounting practices. The second phase, which includes quantifying the potential effects identified during the first phase, assessing additional contract categories and principal versus agent considerations, revising accounting policies and considering the effects on related disclosures and/or internal control over financial reporting is ongoing as of the end of the third quarter.

The new standard could change the amount and timing of revenue and expenses to be recognized under certain of our arrangement types. In addition, it could also increase the administrative burden on our operations to account for customer contracts and provide the more expansive required disclosures. More judgment and estimates may be required within the process of applying the requirements of the new standard than are required under existing GAAP, such as identifying performance obligations in contracts, estimating the amount of variable consideration to include in transaction price, allocating transaction price to each separate performance obligation and estimating expected customer lives. The Company has not completed its assessment or quantified the effect the new guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements, related disclosures and/or its internal control over financial reporting. This assessment will occur over the remainder of the calendar year and will include evaluating the application of the principal vs. agent cost to obtain a contract guidance. However, the Company's preliminary view is that the expected amount and timing of revenue to be recognized under ASU 2014-09 for its most significant contract categories, fuel card payments, corporate payments, toll payments, lodging payments and gift cards, will be similar to the amount and timing of revenue recognized under our current accounting practices. The Company also may be required to capitalize additional costs to obtain contracts with customers, and, in some cases, may be required to amortize these costs over a contractual time period. Finally, the Company expects disclosures about its revenues and related customer acquisition costs will be more extensive.

The Company plans to adopt ASU 2014-09, as well as other clarifications and technical guidance issued by the FASB related to this new revenue standard, on January 1, 2018. The Company will apply the modified retrospective transition method, which would result in an adjustment to retained earnings for the cumulative effect, if any, of applying the standard to contracts that are not completed at the date of initial application. Under this method, the Company would not restate the prior financial statements presented, therefore the new standard requires the Company to provide additional disclosures of the amount by which each financial statement line item is affected in the current reporting period during 2018, as compared to the guidance that was in effect before the change, and an explanation of the reasons for significant changes, if any.
Accounting for Leases
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, “Leases”, which requires lessees to recognize a right-of-use asset and a lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases with the exception of short-term leases. This ASU also requires disclosures to provide additional information about the amounts recorded in the financial statements. This ASU is effective for the Company for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018 and interim periods therein. Early adoption is permitted. The new standard must be adopted using a modified retrospective transition and requires application of the new guidance for leases that exist or are entered into after the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2016-02 on our consolidated financial statements; however, we expect to recognize right of use assets and liabilities for our operating leases in the consolidated balance sheet upon adoption.
Accounting for Breakage
In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-04, “Liabilities-Extinguishments of Liabilities: Recognition of Breakage for Certain Prepaid Stored-Value Products”, which requires entities that sell prepaid stored value products redeemable for goods, services or cash at third-party merchants to derecognize liabilities related to those products for breakage. This ASU is effective for the Company for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is permitted. The ASU must be adopted using either a modified retrospective approach with a cumulative effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the period of adoption or a full retrospective approach. The Company’s adoption of this ASU is not expected to have a material impact on the results of operations, financial condition, or cash flows.
Cash Flow Classification
In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, "Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments", which amends the guidance in ASC 230, Statement of Cash Flows. This amended guidance reduces the diversity in practice that has resulted from the lack of consistent principles related to the classification of certain cash receipts and payments in the statement of cash flows. This ASU is effective for the Company for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is permitted. Entities must apply the guidance retrospectively to all periods presented but may apply it prospectively from the earliest date practicable if retrospective application would be impracticable. The Company’s adoption of this ASU is not expected to have a material impact on the results of operations or financial condition.

In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-18, "Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash", which amends the guidance in ASC 230, Statement of Cash Flows, on the classification and presentation of restricted cash in the statement of cash flows. This ASU is effective for the Company for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is permitted. If an entity early adopts the amendments in an interim period, any adjustments should be reflected as of the beginning of the fiscal year that includes that interim period. The amendments in this ASU should be applied using a retrospective transition methoddisaggregated revenues by solution to each period presented. The Company is evaluating what impact if any the adoption of this ASU will have on the results of operations, financial condition, or cash flows.align with our revenues by segment presentation.
Intangibles - Goodwill and Other Impairment
In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, "Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment, which eliminates the requirement to calculate the implied fair value of goodwill (i.e., Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test) to measure a goodwill impairment charge. Instead, entities will record an impairment charge based on the excess of a reporting unit’s carrying amount over its fair value (i.e., measure the charge based on Step 1). The standard has tiered effective dates, starting in 2020 for calendar-year public business entities that meet the definition of an SEC filer. Early adoption is permitted for interim and annual goodwill impairment testing dates after January 1, 2017. The Company’s adoption of this ASU is not expected to have a material impact on the results of operations, financial condition, or cash flows, unless a goodwill impairment is identified.
Definition of a Business
In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-01, "Clarifying the Definition of a Business", which amends the definition of a business to assist entities with evaluating when a set of transferred assets and activities is a business. The guidance requires an entity to evaluate if substantially all of the fair value of the gross assets acquired is concentrated in a single identifiable asset or a group of similar identifiable assets. If so, the set of transferred assets and activities is not a business. The guidance also requires a business to include at least one substantive process and narrows the definition of outputs. The guidance is effective for the Company for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those years. Early adoption is permitted. The Company’s adoption of this ASU is not expected to have a material impact on the results of operations, financial condition, or cash flows, however it could result in accounting for acquisitions as asset acquisitions versus business combinations upon adoption.
Accounting for Modifications to Stock-Based Compensation
In May 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-09, "Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Scope of Modification Accounting", which amends the scope of modification accounting for share-based payment arrangements. The ASU provides guidance on the types of changes to the terms or conditions of share-based payment awards to which an entity would be required to apply modification accounting under ASC 718. Specifically, an entity would not apply modification accounting if the fair value, vesting conditions and classification of the awards are the same immediately before and after the modification. The guidance is effective for the Company for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those years. Early adoption is permitted. The Company's adoption of this ASU is not expected to have a material impact on the results of operations, financial condition, or cash flows.
Accounting for Derivative Financial Instruments
In August 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-12, "Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities", which amends the hedge accounting recognition and presentation requirements in ASC 815. The FASB issued accounting guidance to better align hedge accounting with a company’s risk management activities, simplify the application of hedge accounting and improve the disclosures of hedging arrangements. The guidance is effective for the Company for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within those years. Early adoption is permitted. The Company's adoption of this ASU is not expected to have a material impact on the results of operations, financial condition, or cash flows.

The provision for credit losses and write-offs increased during the nine months ended September 30, 2023, as customer spend increased due to new sales and higher fuel prices. These new customers tend to have higher loss rates. Additionally, the Company experienced higher losses among micro-SMB (small-medium business) customers who were more severely impacted by negative economic conditions.
3. Fair Value MeasurementsMeasurements/
Fair value is a market-based measurement that reflects assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. GAAP 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, aA 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 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 for which there is little or no market data, which require the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions. The fair value hierarchy also requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value.

The Company has highly-liquid investments classified as cash equivalents, with original maturities of 90 days or less, included in our Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company utilizes Level 2 fair value determinations derived from directly or indirectly observable (market based) information to determine the fair value of these highly liquid investments. The Company has certain cash and cash equivalents that are invested on an overnight basis in highly liquid investments, such as, repurchase agreements, money markets, and certificates of deposit.deposit and Treasury bills, with purchased maturities ranging from overnight to 90 days or less. The value of overnight repurchase agreements is determined based upon the quoted market prices for the treasury securities associated with the repurchase agreements. The value of money market instruments is determined based upon the financial institutions' month-end statement, as these instruments are not tradeabletradable and must be settled directly by us with the respective financial institution. Certificates of deposit and certain U.S. Treasury bills are valued at cost, plus interest accrued. Given the short-term nature of these instruments, the carrying value approximates fair value. Foreign exchange derivative contracts are carried at fair value, with changes in fair value recognized in the Unaudited Consolidated Statements of Income. The fair value of the Company's derivatives is derived with reference to a valuation from a derivatives dealer operating in an active market, which the Company accepts asapproximates the fair value of these instruments. The fair value represents what would be received and or paid by the Companynet settlement if the contracts were terminated as of the reporting date. Cash collateral received for foreign exchange derivatives is recorded within customer deposits liability in our Unaudited Consolidated Balance Sheets at September 30, 2017.2023 and December 31, 2022. Cash collateral paiddeposited for foreign exchange derivatives is recorded within restricted cash and cash equivalents in our Unaudited Consolidated Balance Sheets at September 30, 2017.2023 and December 31, 2022.
The level within the fair value hierarchy and the measurement technique are reviewed quarterly. Transfers between levels are deemed to have occurred at the end of the quarter. There were no transfers between fair value levels during the periods presented for 2017September 30, 2023 and 2016.December 31, 2022.

The Company’s assets that are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis andor are evaluated with periodic testing for impairment include property, plant and equipment, investments, goodwill and other intangible assets. Estimates of the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in business combinations are generally developed using key inputs such as management’s projections of cash flows on a held-and-used basis (if applicable), discounted as appropriate, management’s projections of cash flows upon disposition and discount rates. Accordingly, these fair value measurements are in Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.
The Company's derivatives are over-the-counter instruments with liquid markets. The Company determines the fair values of its derivatives based on quoted market prices or pricing models using current market rates. The amounts exchanged are calculated by reference to the notional amounts and by other terms of the derivatives, such as interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates, commodity rates or other financial indices. See footnoteNote 13 for discussion of Masternaut's other than temporary decline inadditional information on the fair value duringof the third quarterCompany’s derivatives.
The Company regularly evaluates the carrying value of 2017.its investments. The carrying amount of investments without readily determinable fair values was $68.0 million at September 30, 2023.
The fair value of the Company’s cash, accounts receivable, securitized accounts receivable and related facility, prepaid expenses and other current assets, accounts payable, accrued expenses, customer deposits and short-term borrowings approximate their respective carrying values due to the short-term maturities of the instruments. The carrying value of the Company’s debt obligations approximates fair value as the interest rates on the debt are variable market based interest rates that

reset on a quarterlymonthly basis. These are each Level 2 fair value measurements, except for cash, which is a Level 1 fair value measurement.

12. Commitments and Contingencies

In the ordinary course of business, the Company is involved in various pending or threatened legal actions, arbitration proceedings, claims, subpoenas, and matters relating to compliance with laws and regulations (collectively, legal proceedings)"legal proceedings"). Based on our current knowledge, management presently does not believe that the liabilities arising from these legal proceedings will have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. However, it is possible that the ultimate resolution of these legal proceedings could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition for any particular period.
Shareholder Class Action and Derivative Lawsuits
On June 14, 2017, a shareholder filed a class action complaint in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Georgia against the Company and certain of its officers and directors on behalf of all persons who purchased or otherwise acquired the Company’s stock between February 5, 2016 and May 2, 2017. On October 13, 2017, the shareholder filed an amended complaint asserting claims on behalf of a putative class of all persons who purchased or otherwise acquired the Company's common stock between February 4, 2016 and May 3, 2017. The complaint alleges that the defendants made false or misleading statements regarding fee charges and the reasons for its earnings and growth in certain press releases and other public statements in violation of the federal securities laws. Plaintiff seeks class certification, unspecified monetary damages, costs, and attorneys’ fees. The Company disputes the allegations in the complaint and intends to vigorously defend against the claims.
On July 10, 2017, a shareholder derivative complaint was filed against the Company and certain of the Company’s directors and officers in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Georgia ("Federal Derivative Action") seeking recovery from the Company. The District Court dismissed the Federal Derivative Action on October 21, 2020, and the United States Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit affirmed the dismissal on July 27, 2022, ending the lawsuit. A similar
18

derivative lawsuit that had been filed on January 9, 2019 in the Superior Court of Gwinnett County, Georgia (“State Derivative Action”) was likewise dismissed on October 31, 2022.
On January 20, 2023, the previous State Derivative Action plaintiffs filed a new derivative lawsuit in the Superior Court of Gwinnett County, Georgia. The new lawsuit, City of Aventura Police Officers’ Retirement Fund, derivatively on behalf of the Company. The derivative complaintFleetCor Technologies, Inc. v. Ronald F. Clarke and Eric R. Dey, alleges that the defendants issued a false and misleading proxy statement in violation of the federal securities laws; that defendants breached their fiduciary duties by causing or permitting the Company to make allegedlyengage in unfair or deceptive marketing and billing practices, making false

and misleading public statements concerning the Company’s fee charges and financial and business prospects;prospects, and that certain defendants breached their fiduciary duties through allegedlymaking improper sales of stock. The complaint seeks unspecifiedapproximately $118 million in monetary damages on behalf of the Company, corporate governance reforms,including contribution by defendants as joint tortfeasors with the Company in unfair and deceptive practices, and disgorgement of profits, benefitsincentive pay and compensation bystock compensation. On January 24, 2023, the defendants, restitution, costs,previous Federal Derivative Action plaintiffs filed a similar new derivative lawsuit, Jerrell Whitten, derivatively on behalf of FleetCor Technologies, Inc. v. Ronald F. Clarke and attorneys’Eric R. Dey, against Mr. Clarke and experts’ fees.

The defendants dispute the allegations in the complaintderivative complaints and intend to vigorously defend against the claims.
FTC Investigation
In October 2017, the Federal Trade Commission ("FTC") issued a Notice of Civil Investigative Demand to the Company for the production of documentation and a request for responses to written interrogatories. After discussions with the Company, the FTC proposed in October 2019 to resolve potential claims relating to the Company’s advertising and marketing practices, principally in its U.S. direct fuel card business within its North American Fuel Card business. The parties reached impasse primarily related to what the Company believes are unreasonable demands for redress made by the FTC. On December 20, 2019, the FTC filed a lawsuit in the Northern District of Georgia against the Company and Ron Clarke. See FTC v. FLEETCOR and Ronald F. Clarke, No. 19-cv-05727 (N.D. Ga.). The complaint alleges the Company and Clarke violated the FTC Act’s prohibitions on unfair and deceptive acts and practices. The complaint seeks among other things injunctive relief, consumer redress, and costs of suit. The Company continues to believe that the FTC’s claims are without merit. On April 17, 2021, the FTC filed a motion for summary judgment. On April 22, 2021, the United States Supreme Court held unanimously in AMG Capital Management v. FTC that the FTC does not have authority under current law to seek monetary redress by means of Section 13(b) of the FTC Act, which is the means by which the FTC has sought such redress in this case. FLEETCOR cross-moved for summary judgment regarding the FTC’s ability to seek monetary or injunctive relief on May 17, 2021. On August 13, 2021, the FTC filed a motion to stay or to voluntarily dismiss without prejudice the case pending in the Northern District of Georgia in favor of a parallel administrative action under Section 5 of the FTC Act that it filed on August 11, 2021 in the FTC’s administrative process. Apart from the jurisdiction and statutory change, the FTC’s administrative complaint makes the same factual allegations as the FTC’s original complaint filed in December 2019. The Company opposed the FTC’s motion for a stay or to voluntarily dismiss, and the court denied the FTC’s motion on February 7, 2022. In the meantime, the FTC’s administrative action is stayed. On August 9, 2022, the District Court for the Northern District of Georgia granted the FTC's motion for summary judgment as to liability for the Company and Ron Clarke, but granted the Company's motion for summary judgment as to the FTC's claim for monetary relief as to both the Company and Ron Clarke. The Company intends to appeal this decision after final judgment is issued. On October 20-21, 2022, the court held a hearing on the scope of injunctive relief. At the conclusion of the hearing, the Court did not enter either the FTC’s proposed order or the Company’s proposed order, and instead suggested that the parties enter mediation. Following mediation, both parties have filed proposed orders with the Court.
On June 8, 2023, the Court issued an Order for Permanent Injunction and Other Relief.The Company filed its notice of appeal to the United States Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit on August 3, 2023. On August 17, 2023, the FTC Commission ordered that the stay of the parallel Section 5 administrative action will remain in place during the pendency of the Eleventh Circuit appeal. The Company has incurred and continues to incur legal and other fees related to this FTC complaint. Any settlement of this matter, or defense against the lawsuit, could involve costs to the Company, including legal fees, redress, penalties, and remediation expenses.
Estimating an amount or range of possible losses resulting from litigation proceedings is inherently difficult and requires an extensive degree of judgment, particularly where, as here, the matters involve indeterminate claims for monetary damages and are in the stages of the proceedings where key factual and legal issues have not been resolved. For these reasons, the Company is currently unable to predict the ultimate timing or outcome of, or reasonably estimate the possible losses or a range of possible losses resulting from, the matters described above.

Telematics Businesses
As part of the Company's plan to exit the telematics business, on July 27, 2017, the Company sold NexTraq, a U.S. fleet telematics business, to Michelin Group for $316 million. The Company recorded a pre-tax gain on the disposal of NexTraq of $175.0 million during the third quarter of 2017, which is net of transaction closing costs. The Company recorded tax on the gain of disposal of $65.8 million. The gain on the disposal is included in other (income) expense, net in the accompanying Unaudited Consolidated Statements of Income. NexTraq has historically been included in the Company's North America segment.

On September 30, 2017, the Company entered into an amended Masternaut investment agreement that resulted in the loss of significant influence, and the Company began accounting for the Masternaut investment by applying the cost method.

Foreign Currency Derivatives
The Company regularly evaluates the carrying value ofuses derivatives to facilitate cross-currency corporate payments by writing derivatives to customers within its investment and during the third quarter of 2017, the Company determined that the fair value of its 44% investment in Masternaut had declined as a result of the Company's loss of significant influence due to the amendment of the Masternaut investment agreement, executed September 30, 2017. As a result, the Company determined that the carrying value of its investment exceeded its fair value, and concluded that this decline in value was other than temporary.cross-border solution. The Company recorded a $44.6 million impairment loss in the Masternaut investment that includes adjustment for $31.4 million of currency losses previously recognized in accumulated other comprehensive income, in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, in the accompanying Unaudited Consolidated Statements of Income.



14. Derivative Financial Instruments
As a result of the Cambridge acquisition, the Company writes derivatives, primarily foreign currency forward contracts, and option contracts, and swaps, mostly with small and medium size enterprises that are customers and derives a currency spread from this activity, which was acquired during the third quarter of 2017. activity.
Derivative transactions associated with the Company's cross-border solution include:
19


Forward contracts,, which are commitments to buy or sell at a future date a currency at a contract price and will be settled in cash.
Option contracts, which givesgive the purchaser the right, but not the obligation, to buy or sell within a specified time a currency at a contracted price that may be settled in cash.
Swap contracts, which are commitments to settlement in cash at a future date or dates, usually on an overnight basis.
The primary credit risk inherent in derivative agreements represents the possibility that a loss may occur from the nonperformance of a counterparty to the agreements. Concentrations of credit and performance risk may exist with counterparties, which includes customers and banking partners, as the Company is engaged in similar activities with similar economic characteristics related to fluctuations in foreign currency rates. The Company performs a review of the credit risk of these counterparties at the inception of the contract and on an ongoing basis. The Company also monitors the concentration of its contracts with any individual counterparty against limits at the individual counterparty level. The Company anticipates that the counterparties will be able to fully satisfy their obligations under the agreements, but takes action when doubt arises about the counterparties' ability to perform. These actions may include requiring customers to post or increase collateral, and for all counterparties, if the possible terminationcounterparty does not perform under the term of the related contracts.contract, the contract may be terminated. The Company does not designate any of its foreign exchange derivatives as hedging instruments in accordance with ASC 815.

The Company recognizes all derivative assets inwithin prepaid expenseexpenses and other current assets, and all derivative liabilities inother assets, other current liabilities both net atand other noncurrent liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company receives cash from customers as collateral for trade exposures, which is recorded within cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash and customer leveldeposits liability in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The customer has the right to recall their collateral in the event exposures move in their favor, they perform on all outstanding contracts and have no outstanding amounts due to the Company, or they cease to do business with the Company. The Company has trading lines with several banks, most of which require collateral to be posted if

certain mark-to-market (MTM) thresholds are exceeded. Cash collateral posted with banks is recorded within restricted cash and can be recalled in the event that exposures move in the Company’s favor or move below the collateral posting thresholds.

Cash Flow Hedges
On January 22, 2019, the Company entered into three interest rate swap cash flow contracts (the "swap contracts"). One contract (which matured in January 2022) had a notional value of $1.0 billion, while the other two contracts (with maturity dates of January 2023 and December 2023) each had a notional value of $500 million. The objective of these swap contracts was to reduce the variability of cash flows in the previously unhedged interest payments associated with $2.0 billion of unspecified variable rate debt, the sole source of which is due to changes in the LIBOR benchmark interest rate. At inception, the Company designated these contracts as hedging instruments in accordance with ASC 815, "Derivatives and Hedging."
During January 2023, the Company entered into five receive-variable SOFR, pay-fixed interest rate swap derivative contracts with a cumulative notional U.S. dollar value of $1.5 billion as shown disaggregated in the table below.
On May 4, 2023, the Company amended the remaining LIBOR-based interest rate swap with a notional amount of $500 million from one-month term LIBOR of 2.55% to one-month term SOFR of 2.50%, without further changes to the terms of the swap. The Company applied certain expedients provided in ASU No. 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848), related to changes in critical terms of the hedging relationships due to reference rate reform, which allowed the change in critical terms without dedesignation of the hedging relationship.
In August 2023, the Company entered into eight additional receive-variable SOFR, pay-fixed interest rate swap derivative contracts with a cumulative notional U.S. dollar value of $2.0 billion as shown disaggregated in the table below.
As of September 30, 2023, the Company had the following outstanding interest rate swap derivatives that qualify as hedging instruments within designated cash flow hedges of variable interest rate risk (in millions):

The purpose of these contracts is to reduce the variability of cash flows in interest payments associated with the Company's unspecified variable rate debt, the sole source of which is due to changes in the SOFR benchmark interest rate. The Company has designated these derivative instruments as cash flow hedging instruments, which are expected to be highly effective at offsetting changes in cash flows of the related underlying exposure. As a result, changes in fair value of the interest rate swaps
21


are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss. For each of these swap contracts, the Company pays a fixed monthly rate and receives one month SOFR. The Company reclassified $24.6 million from accumulated other comprehensive loss resulting in a benefit to interest expense, net for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 related to these interest rate swap contracts. Cash flows related to the Company's interest rate swap derivatives are classified as operating activities within the Unaudited Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows, as such cash flows relate to hedged interest payments recorded in operating activities.
For derivatives accounted for as hedging instruments, the Company formally designates and documents, at inception, the financial instrument as a hedge of a specific underlying exposure, the risk management objective and the strategy for undertaking the hedge transaction. The Company formally assesses, both at the inception and at least quarterly thereafter, whether the financial instruments used in hedging transactions are effective at offsetting changes in cash flows of the related underlying exposures.

As of September 30, 2023, the estimated net amount of the existing gains expected to be reclassified into earnings within the next 12 months is approximately $45.5 million.
Net Investment Hedge
In February 2023, the Company entered into a cross-currency interest rate swap that is designated as a net investment hedge of our investments in euro-denominated operations. This contract effectively converts $500 million of U.S. dollar equivalent to an obligation denominated in euro, and partially offsets the impact of changes in currency rates on our euro-denominated net investments. This contract also creates a positive interest differential on the U.S. dollar-denominated portion of the swap, resulting in a 1.96% interest rate savings on the USD notional.
Hedge effectiveness is tested based on changes in the fair value of the cross-currency swap due to changes in the USD/euro spot rate. The Company anticipates perfect effectiveness of the designated hedging relationship and records changes in the fair value of the cross-currency interest rate swap associated with changes in the spot rate through accumulated other comprehensive loss. Excluded components associated with the forward differential are recognized immediatelydirectly in earnings as interest expense, net. The Company recognized a benefit of $6.4 million in interest expense, net for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 related to these excluded components. The cross-currency interest rate swap designated as a net investment hedge is recorded in prepaid expenses and other current assets at a fair value of $6.9 million as of September 30, 2023. Upon settlement, cash flows attributable to derivatives designated as net investment hedges will be classified as investing activities in the Unaudited Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

See Note 15 for additional information regarding the Company's disposition of its Russia business.
15. Russia Disposition
During the second quarter of 2023, the Company signed definitive documents to sell its Russia business to a third party. At June 30, 2023, the Company concluded that the sale was not considered probable due to continued uncertainty regarding regulatory approvals and ongoing discussions regarding the nature and timing of deal completion. As such, the assets and liabilities associated with the Company's Russian business were not classified as held for sale prior to the completion of the transaction. During August 2023, the Company received the outstanding regulatory approvals, and the sale was completed on August 15, 2023.
The sale includes the entirety of the Company's operations in Russia and results in a complete exit from the Russia market. The Russia business was historically reported within the Company's Fleet segment and did not meet the criteria to be presented as discontinued operations. The Company received total proceeds, net of cash disposed and net of a $5.6 million foreign exchange loss upon conversion of the ruble-denominated proceeds to U.S. dollars, of $197.0 million, which have been recorded within investing activities in the accompanying Unaudited Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. In connection with the sale, the Company recorded a net gain on disposal of approximately $13.7 million during the third quarter of 2023, which represents the proceeds received less the derecognition of the related net assets, the reclassification of accumulated foreign currency translation losses, and the foreign exchange loss upon conversion of the ruble-denominated proceeds to U.S. dollars.

Executive Overview
FLEETCOR trades on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker FLT. FLEETCOR is a leading global business payments company that helps businesses spend less by enabling them to better manage their expense-related purchasing and vendor payments processes. FLEETCOR’s smarter payment and spend management solutions are delivered in a variety of ways depending on the needs of the customer. From physical payment cards to software that includes customizable controls and robust payment capabilities, we provide businesses with a better way to pay.
Businesses spend an estimated $135 trillion each year in transactions with other businesses. In many instances, businesses lack the proper tools to monitor what is being purchased, and employ manual, paper-based, disparate processes and methods to both approve and make payments for their business-to-business purchases. This often results in wasted time and money due to unnecessary or unauthorized spending, fraud, receipt collection, data input and consolidation, report generation, reimbursement processing, account reconciliations, employee disciplinary actions, and more.
FLEETCOR’s vision is that every payment is digital, every purchase is controlled, and every related decision is informed. Digital payments are faster and more secure than paper-based methods such as checks, and provide timely and detailed data that can be utilized to effectively reduce unauthorized purchases and fraud, automate data entry and reporting, and eliminate reimbursement processes. Combining this payment data with analytical tools delivers powerful insights, which managers can use to better run their businesses. Our wide range of modern, digitized solutions generally provides control, reporting, and automation benefits superior to many of the payment methods businesses often use such as cash, paper checks, general purpose credit cards, as well as employee pay and reclaim processes.
Impact of Russia's Invasion of Ukraine and Other Geo-Political Events on Our Business
The current military conflicts between Russia and Ukraine, as well as within the Middle East continue to create substantial uncertainty about the global economy in the future. Although the length, impact and outcome of the ongoing military conflicts between Russia and Ukraine and within the Middle East is highly unpredictable, these conflicts could lead to significant market and other disruptions. We have recently exited the Russia market via the disposition of our Russia business, which closed in the third quarter of 2023 (see "Russia Disposition" section below). Additionally, we do not have operations in Israel or Gaza. However, the escalation or continuation of these conflicts presents heightened risks and has resulted and could continue to result in volatile commodity markets, supply chain disruptions, increased risk of cyber incidents or other disruptions to information systems, heightened risks to employee safety, limitations on access to credit markets, increased operating costs (including fuel and other input costs), the frequency and volume of failures to settle securities transactions, inflation, potential for increased volatility in commodity, currency and other financial markets, and safety risks. We cannot predict how and the extent to which the conflicts will affect our customers, operations or business partners or the demand for our products and our global business. Depending on the actions we take or are required to take, the ongoing conflicts could also result in loss of cash, assets or impairment charges. Additionally, we may also face negative publicity and reputational risk based on the actions we take or are required to take as a result of these conflicts, which could damage our brand image or corporate reputation.
The extent of the impact of these tragic events on our business remains uncertain and will continue to depend on numerous evolving factors that we are not able to accurately predict, including the extent, severity, duration and outcome of the conflicts. We are actively monitoring the situations and assessing the impact on our business, and are continuing to refine our business continuity plan, which includes crisis response materials designed to mitigate the impact of disruptions to our business. Further, there can be readno assurance that our plan will successfully mitigate all disruptions. To date we have not experienced any material interruptions in conjunctionour infrastructure, technology systems or networks needed to support our operations. The extent, severity,
24

duration and outcome of the military conflicts, sanctions and resulting market disruptions could be significant and could potentially have substantial impact on the global economy and our business for an unknown period of time. Any such disruptions may also magnify the impact of other risks described herein and in our Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Russia Disposition
During the second quarter of 2023, we signed definitive documents to sell our Russia business to a third party. At June 30, 2023, we concluded that the sale was not considered probable due to continued uncertainty regarding regulatory approvals and ongoing discussions regarding the nature and timing of deal completion. As such, the assets and liabilities associated with our Russian business were not classified as held for sale prior to the completion of the transaction. During August 2023, we received the outstanding regulatory approvals, and the sale was completed on August 15, 2023.
The sale includes the entirety of our operations in Russia and results in a complete exit from the Russia market. The Russia business was historically reported within our Fleet segment and did not meet the criteria to be presented as discontinued operations. We received total proceeds, net of cash disposed and net of a $5.6 million foreign exchange loss upon conversion of the ruble-denominated proceeds to U.S. dollars, of $197.0 million, which have been recorded within investing activities in the accompanying Unaudited Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. In connection with the management’s discussionsale, we recorded a net gain on disposal of approximately $13.7 million during the third quarter of 2023, which represents the proceeds received less the derecognition of the related net assets, the reclassification of accumulated foreign currency translation losses and analysisthe foreign exchange loss upon conversion of the ruble-denominated proceeds to U.S. dollars. The net gain is included within other (income) expense, net in the accompanying Unaudited Consolidated Statements of Income for the three months ended September 30, 2023.
Our business in Russia accounted for approximately $62.0 million and $59.1 million of our consolidated income before income taxes for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Our assets in Russia were approximately 3.2% of our consolidated assets at December 31, 2022.
Impact of Recent Bank Failures
Recent failures of several financial statementsinstitutions have created uncertainty in the global financial markets and related notes includeda greater focus on the potential failure of other banks in the future. Although we did not experience losses as a result of these failures, we regularly maintain cash balances with financial institutions in excess of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insurance limit or the equivalent outside the U.S. A disruption in financial markets could impair our banking partners, which could affect our ability to access our cash or cash equivalents; our ability to provide services to our customers; and our customers' ability to access their cash to fulfill their payment obligations to us, their vendors, and other third parties. The occurrence of these events could negatively affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
In addition to the other information set forth in this report, you should carefully consider the factors discussed in Part I, Item 1A. "Risk Factors" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016.2022.

We also use third-party networks to deliver our payment programs and services in order to broaden our card acceptance and use. To support our payment products, we also provide a range of services, such as issuing and processing, as well as specialized information services that provide our customers with value-added functionality and data. Our customers can use this data to track important business productivity metrics, combat fraud and employee misuse, streamline expense administration and lower overall workforce and fleet operating costs. Depending on our customers’ and partners’ needs, we provide these services in a variety of outsourced solutions ranging from a comprehensive “end-to-end” solution (encompassing issuing, processing and network services) to limited back office processing services.
Executive Overview
We operate in two segments, which we refer to as our North America and International segments. Our revenue is reported net of the wholesale cost for underlying products and services. In this report, we refer to this net revenue as “revenue.” See “Results of Operations” for additional segment information. We report our results from Cambridge acquired in the third quarter of 2017 in our North America segment for Cambridge's business in the United States and Canada and within our International segment for Cambridge's business in all other countries outside of the United States and Canada. We are continuing to evaluate the

allocation of Cambridge results to our reporting units and segments. As part of our plan to exit the telematics business, on July 27, 2017, we sold NexTraq, a U.S. fleet telematics business, which has historically been included in our North America segment.
For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, our North America and International segments generated the following revenue (in millions):

Sources of Revenue
Transactions. In bothFLEETCOR offers a variety of business payment solutions that help to simplify, automate, secure, digitize and effectively control the way businesses manage and pay their expenses. We provide our segments,payment solutions to our business, merchant, consumer and payment network customers in more than 150 countries around the world today, although we derive revenue from transactions. As illustratedoperate primarily in three geographies, with 83% of our revenues generated in the diagram below, a transaction is defined as a purchase by a customer.U.S., Brazil, and the U.K. Our customers may include holders of our card productscommercial businesses (obtained through direct and those of ourindirect channels), partners for whom we manage cardpayment programs, membersas well as individual consumers.

We report information about our operating segments in accordance with the authoritative guidance related to segments. We manage and report our operating results through four reportable segments: Fleet, Corporate Payments, Lodging, and Brazil. The remaining results are included within Other, which includes our Gift and Payroll Card businesses. These segments align with how the Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM) allocates resources, assesses performance and reviews financial information.

Our revenue is generally reported net of our proprietary networks who are provided access to ourthe cost for underlying products and services purchased. In this report, we refer to this net revenue as “revenue" or "revenues, net." See “Results of Operations” for additional segment information.

Through our merchant and network relationships we primarily offer fuel cards, corporate cards, virtual cards, purchasing cards, T&E cards, gift cards, stored value payroll cards, vehicle maintenance, food, fuel, toll and transportation cards and vouchers and lodging services to our customers.
The following diagram illustrates a typical transaction flow, for our fuel card, vehicle maintenance, lodging and food, toll and transportation card and voucher products. This illustration is not applicable to all of ourPayroll Card businesses.

The Fuel solution is now included with the Fleet segment, with the exception of Brazil fuel, which is included in the Brazil segment. Vehicle maintenance, telematics, and Mexico benefits were included in the Other solution category previously, and are now included in the Fleet segment. The Brazil segment includes Brazil benefits from the Other solution category and the Tolls solution category. The Gift and Payroll Card solution categories are now included in Other.

Our programs may also charge fixed fees for access to the network and ancillary services provided. In our cross-border payments business, the majority of revenue is from exchanges of currency at spot rates, which enables customers to make cross-currency payments. Our performance obligation in our foreign exchange payment services is providing a foreign currency payment to a customer’s

We use pro forma and macro adjusted revenue as a basis to evaluate our organic growth.

Organic revenue growth is a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure of operating performance. Organic revenue growth is calculated as revenue in the current period adjusted for the impact of changes in the macroeconomic environment (to include fuel price, fuel price spreads and changes in foreign exchange rates) over revenue in the comparable prior period adjusted to include or remove the impact of acquisitions and/or divestitures and non-recurring items that have occurred subsequent to that period. See the heading entitled "Management’s Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures" for more information and a reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measure to the most directly comparable financial measure calculated in accordance with GAAP. We believe that organic revenue growth on a macro-neutral, one-time item, and consistent acquisition/divestiture/non-recurring item basis is useful to investors for understanding the performance of FLEETCOR.
Revenue per relevant key performance indicator (KPI), which may include transaction, is derived from the various revenue types as discussed above andspend volume, monthly tags, room nights, or other metrics, can vary based on geography, the relevant merchant relationship, the payment product utilized and the types of products or services purchased, the mix of which would be influenced by our acquisitions, organic growth in our business, and the overall macroeconomic environment, including fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, fuel prices and fuel spread margins.price spreads. Revenue per transactionKPI per customer changesmay change as the level of services we provide to a customer increases or decreases, as macroeconomic factors change and as adjustments are made to merchant and customer rates.

Sources of Expenses
We incur expenses in the following categories:
Merchant commissions—In certain of our card programs, we incur merchant commissions expense when we reimburse merchants with whom we have direct, contractual relationships for specific transactions where a customer purchases products or services from the merchant. In the card programs where it is paid, merchant commissions equal the difference between the price paid by us to the merchant and the merchant’s wholesale cost of the underlying products or services.
Processing—Our processing expense consists of expenses related to processing transactions, servicing our customers and merchants, bad debt expensecredit losses and cost of goods sold related to our hardware and card sales in certain businesses.
28

Selling—Our selling expenses consist primarily of wages, benefits, sales commissions (other than merchant commissions) and related expenses for our sales, marketing and account management personnel and activities.
General and administrative—Our general and administrative expenses include compensation and related expenses (including stock-based compensation)compensation and bonuses) for our executives, finance and accounting, information technology, human resources, legal and other administrative personnel. Also included are facilities expenses, third-party professional services fees, travel and entertainment expenses, and other corporate-level expenses.
Depreciation and amortization—Our depreciation expenses include depreciation of property and equipment, consisting of computer hardware and software (including proprietary software development amortization expense), card-reading equipment, furniture, fixtures, vehicles and buildings and leasehold improvements related to office space. Our amortization expenses include amortization of intangible assets related to customer and vendor relationships, trade names and trademarks, software and non-compete agreements. We are amortizing intangible assets related to business acquisitions and certain private label contracts associated with the purchase of accounts receivable.
Other operating, net—Our other operating, net includes other operating expenses and income items unusual to the period and presented separately.
Investment loss (income)—Our investment resultsthat do not relate to our minority interest in Masternaut, a provider of telematics solutions to commercial fleets in Europe, which we historically accounted for using the equity method. On September 30, 2017, we entered into an amended Masternaut investment agreementcore operations or that resulted in the loss of significant influence, and we began accounting for the Masternaut investment by applying the cost method.

on a global basis.
Factors and Trends Impacting our Business
We believe that the following factors and trends are important in understanding our financial performance:
Global economic conditions—Our results of operations are materially affected by conditions in the economy generally, in North America, Brazil, and in other locations internationally, including the current conflict between Russia and Ukraine and other geopolitical events in the Middle East, as discussed elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Factors affected by the economy include our transaction volumes, the credit risk of our customers and changes in tax laws across the globe. These factors affected our businesses in each of our segments.
Foreign currency changes—Our results of operations are significantly impacted by changes in foreign currency exchange rates; namely, by movements of the Australian dollar, Brazilian real, British pound, Canadian dollar, Czech koruna, euro, Mexican peso, New Zealand dollar and Russian ruble (for periods prior to the disposition of our Russian business), relative to the U.S. dollar. Approximately 57% and 61% of our revenue in the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, was derived in U.S. dollars and was not affected by foreign currency exchange rates. See "Results of Operations" for information related to foreign currency impact on our total revenue, net.
Our cross-border foreign currency trading business aggregates foreign exchange exposures arising from customer contracts and economically hedges the resulting net currency risks by entering into offsetting contracts with established financial institution counterparties. These contracts are subject to counterparty credit risk.
Fuel prices—Our fleet customers use our products and services primarily in connection with the purchase of fuel. Accordingly, our revenue is affected by fuel prices, which are subject to significant volatility. A change in retail fuel prices could cause a decrease or increase in our revenue from several sources, including fees paid to us based on a percentage of each customer’s total purchase. Changes in the absolute price of fuel may also impact unpaid account balances and the late fees and charges based on these amounts. We estimate approximately 10% and 13% of revenues, net were directly impacted by changes in fuel price in the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. We estimate approximately 11% and 13% of revenues, net were directly impacted by changes in fuel price in the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. See “Sources"Results of Revenue” aboveOperations" for further information related to the absolutefuel price of fuel.
impact on our total revenues, net.
Fuel-price spread volatility—A portion of our revenue involves transactions where we derive revenue from fuel-pricefuel price spreads, which is the difference between the price charged to a fleet customer for a transaction and the price paid to the merchant for the same transaction. In these transactions, the price paid to the merchant is based on the wholesale cost of fuel. The merchant’s wholesale cost of fuel is dependent on several factors including, among others, the factors described above affecting fuel prices. The fuel price that we charge to our customer is dependent on several factors including, among others, the fuel price paid to the merchant, posted retail fuel prices and competitive fuel prices. We

experience fuel-pricefuel price spread contraction when the merchant’s wholesale cost of fuel increases at a faster rate than the fuel price we charge to our customers, or the fuel price we charge to our customers decreases at a faster rate than the merchant’s wholesale cost of fuel. The inverse of these situations produces fuel price spread expansion. We estimate approximately 4% and 6% of revenues, net were directly impacted by fuel price spreads in the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. We estimate approximately 5% and 6% of revenues, net were directly impacted by fuel price spreads in the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. See “Sources"Results of Revenue” aboveOperations" for further information related to fuel-price spreads.
the fuel price spread impact on our total revenues, net.

Acquisitions—Since 2002, we have completed over 7595 acquisitions of companies and commercial account portfolios. Acquisitions have been an important part of our growth strategy, and it is our intention to continue to seek opportunities to increase our customer base and diversify our service offering through further strategic acquisitions. The impact of acquisitions has, and may continue to have, a significant impact on our results of operations and may make it difficult to compare our results between periods.
Interest ratesOur resultsFrom January 1, 2022 to July 27, 2023, the U.S. Federal Open Market Committee has increased the benchmark rate eleven times for a total rate increase of operations5.25%. Additional increases are affected by interest rates.possible in future periods. We are exposed to market risk to changes in interest rates on our cash investments and debt.
Global economic conditions—Our resultsdebt, particularly in rising interest rate environments, which is partially offset by incremental interest income earned on cash and restricted cash. On January 22, 2019, we entered into three swap contracts. The objective of operations are materially affected by conditionsthese swap contracts is to reduce the variability of cash flows in the economy generally, bothpreviously unhedged interest payments associated with $2.0 billion of variable rate debt, the sole source of which is due to changes in North Americathe LIBOR benchmark interest rate. For each of these swap contracts, we paid a fixed monthly rate and internationally. Factors affected by the economy include our transaction volumesreceived one month LIBOR. In January 2022 and the credit risk2023, $1.0 billion and $500 million, respectively, of our customers. These factors affected our businessesinterest rate swaps matured. On May 4, 2023, we amended the remaining LIBOR-based swap. The amendment replaced LIBOR on the swap with one-month term SOFR resulting in both our North America and International segments.
Foreign currencya pay-fixed monthly rate of 2.50%, without further changes—Our results to the terms of operations are significantly impacted bythe swap. In January 2023, we entered into five swap contracts totaling $1.5 billion. In August 2023, we entered into eight additional interest rate swap contracts totaling $2.0 billion. The objective of these swap contracts is to reduce the variability of cash flows in the previously unhedged interest payments associated with variable rate debt, the sole source of which is due to changes in foreign currency rates; namely, by movementsthe SOFR interest rate. For each of the Australian dollar, Brazilian real, British pound, Canadian dollar, Czech koruna, Euro, Mexican peso, New Zealand dollarthese swap contracts, we pay a fixed monthly rate and Russian ruble, relative to the U.S. dollar. Approximately 63% and 72% of our revenue in the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively, was derived in U.S. dollars and was not affected by foreign currency exchange rates.

Expenses—Over the long term, we expect that our general and administrative expense will decrease as a percentage of revenue as our revenue increases.increases, except for expenses related to transaction volume processed. To support our expected revenue growth, we plan to continue to incur additional sales and marketing expense by investing in our direct marketing, third-party agents, internet marketing, telemarketing and field sales force.

Taxes—We pay taxes in various taxing jurisdictions, including the U.S., most U.S. states and many non-U.S. jurisdictions. The tax rates in certain non-U.S. taxing jurisdictions are different than the U.S. tax rate. Consequently, as our earnings fluctuate between taxing jurisdictions, our effective tax rate fluctuates.

Asset Dispositions

Telematics Businesses
As part of our plan to exit the telematics business, on July 27, 2017, we sold NexTraq, a U.S. fleet telematics business, to Michelin Group for $316 million. We recorded a pre-tax gain on the disposal of NexTraq of $175.0 million during the third quarter of 2017, which is net of transaction closing costs. We recorded tax on the gain of disposal of $65.8 million. The gain

on the disposal is included in other (income) expense, net in the accompanying Unaudited Consolidated Statements of Income. NexTraq has historically been included in our North America segment.

On September 30, 2017, we entered into an amended Masternaut investment agreement that resulted in the loss of significant influence, and we began accounting for the Masternaut investment by applying the cost method.

We regularly evaluate the carrying value of our Masternaut investment and during the third quarter of 2017, we determined that the fair value of our 44% investment in Masternaut had declined as a result of our loss of significant influence due to the amendment of the Masternaut investment agreement, executed September 30, 2017. As a result, we determined that the carrying value of our investment exceeded its fair value, and concluded that this decline in value was other than temporary. We recorded a $44.6 million impairment loss in the Masternaut investment that includes adjustment for $31.4 million of currency losses previously recognized in accumulated other comprehensive income, in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, in the accompanying Unaudited Consolidated Statements of Income.

RevenuesConsolidated Results
Our consolidatedConsolidated revenues, increased from $484.4net
Consolidated revenues were $970.9 million in the three months ended September 30, 2016 to $577.9 million in the three months ended September 30, 2017,2023, an increase of $93.5 million, or 19.3%.8.7% compared to the prior period. The increase in our consolidated revenuerevenues was due primarily due to:

The impact of acquisitions during 2016 and 2017, which contributed approximately $58 million in additional revenue.
Organicto organic growth of approximately 8% on a constant fuel price, fuel spread margin, foreign currency and pro forma basis,10%, driven by increases in both volumetransaction volumes and new sales growth and net revenue per transactiongrowth of 1% from acquisitions completed in certain of our payment programs.

Although we cannot precisely measure the impact of the macroeconomic environment, in total we believe it had a favorable impact on our consolidated revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2017 over the comparable period in 2016 of approximately $4 million. This was primarily due to favorable changes in foreign exchange rates in Brazil2022 and the United Kingdom in the three months ended September 30, 2017 compared to 2016.

These increases were2023, partially offset by the impact ofmacroeconomic environment that negatively impacted revenue growth by 2%. Revenues were also negatively impacted compared to the prior period by the disposition of the NexTraqour Russia business in July 2017 of approximately $10 million.

The impact of our Cambridge acquisition during the third quarter of 2017, which contributed approximately $12 million in additional revenue.

Consolidated operating income was $445.0 million in the three months ended September 30, 20162023, an increase of 14.3% compared to $111.3the prior period. The increase in operating income was primarily due to the reasons discussed above and disciplined expense management, resulting in EBITDA margin expansion of 225 basis points over the prior period.

Selling. Selling expenses increased from $34.2net. Interest expense, net was $88.3 million in the three months ended September 30, 2016 to $45.1 million in the three months ended September 30, 2017,2023, an increase of $10.9$42.9 million or 31.8%. Increases in spending were primarily due to ongoing incremental expenses related to acquisitions completed in 2016 and 2017 of approximately $9 million, additional spending in certain lines of business andfrom the impact of foreign exchange rates. These increases were partially offset by the impact of disposition of the NexTraq business of approximately $1 million.

Investment loss. Investment loss was $47.8 million in the three months ended September 30, 2017, compared to $2.7 million in the three months ended September 30, 2016. We regularly evaluate the carrying value of our Masternaut investment and during the third quarter of 2017, we determined that the fair value of our 44% investment in Masternaut had declined as a result of our loss of significant influence due to the amendment of the Masternaut investment agreement, executed September 30, 2017. As a result, we determined that the carrying value of our investment exceeded its fair value, and concluded that this decline in value was other than temporary. We recorded a $44.6 million impairment loss in the Masternaut investment that includes adjustment for $31.4 million of currency losses previously recognized in accumulated other comprehensive income, in the three months ended September 30, 2017, in the accompanying Unaudited Consolidated Statements of Income. There was also a non-recurring net recovery of purchase price of approximately $11 million during the second quarter of 2016.

Other income, net was $175.3 million in the three months ended September 30, 2017, compared to other expense, net of $0.3 million in the three months ended September 30, 2016. The increase was due primarily to the pre-tax gain on the sale of our Nextraq business of $175 million in the third quarter of 2017.

Interest expense, net. Interest expense increased from $17.8 million in the three months ended September 30, 2016 to $29.3 million in the three months ended September 30, 2017, an increase of $11.5 million, or 64.7%.prior period. The increase in interest expense iswas primarily due to rising interest rates on our borrowings and net cash used in financing activities, partially offset by the impactbenefit of additional borrowings to finance the acquisitions of STPhigher cash balances in certain foreign jurisdictions and Travelcard completed during the third quarter of 2016 and Cambridge completed during the third quarter of 2017, and increasesan increase in LIBOR.interest income from higher interest rates.

Loss on extinguishment of debt. Loss on early extinguishment of debt of $3.3 million relates to our write-off of debt issuance costs associated with the refinancing of our existing credit facility during the third quarter of 2017.
Provision for income taxes. The provision for income taxes increased from $40.6 million inone cross-currency interest rate swap, which is designated as a net investment hedge. During the three months ended September 30, 20162023, as a result of these swap contracts and net investment hedge, we recorded a benefit to $124.7 million in the three months ended September 30, 2017, an increaseinterest expense, net of $84.1 million, or 207.2%. We provide$14.7 million.
Provision for income taxes. The provision for income taxes during interim periods based on an estimate of ourand effective tax rate for the year. Discrete itemswere $98.6 million and changes in the estimate of the annual tax rate are recorded in the period they occur. Our effective tax rate increased from 23.9% for three months ended September 30, 2016 to 38.1%26.6% for the three months ended September 30, 2017.2023, compared to $91.0 million and 26.8% for the prior period. The 2017increase in the provision for
32

income taxes of 8% is driven by the similar increase in income before income taxes. Income tax expense is based on an estimated annual effective rate, which requires us to make our best estimate of annual pretax accounting income or loss before consideration of tax or benefit discretely recognized in the period in which such occur. Our effective income tax rate was impacted byfor the gain on sale ofthree months ended September 30, 2023 differs from the NexTraq business of $175 million, all atU.S. federal statutory rate due primarily to the higher U.S. tax rate, and the Masternaut impairment charge in the quarter, which had no corresponding tax benefit. Our tax rate in the quarter was 29.4%, excluding theunfavorable impact of the NexTraq sale, investment impairmentstate taxes net of federal benefits, additional taxes on undistributed foreign-sourced income, and lossforeign withholding taxes on extinguishment of debt. The 2016 tax rate was favorably impacted by a one-time nonrecurring net gain at our Masternaut investment that favorably impacted pre-tax earnings, but was not subject tointerest income tax. The 2016 rate was also favorably impacted by higher excess tax benefits on share-based compensation in the third quarter of 2016 versus the third quarter of 2017.from intercompany notes.
We pay taxes in many different taxing jurisdictions, including the U.S., most U.S. states and many non-U.S. jurisdictions. The tax rates in certain non-U.S. taxing jurisdictions are lower than the U.S. tax rate. Consequently, as our earnings fluctuate between taxing jurisdictions, our effective tax rate fluctuates. Also, the excess tax benefit on share based compensation is part

of the effective tax rate. As a result, the tax rate is impacted by the number of stock options exercised or restricted shares vested during the reporting period.
Net income. For the reasons discussed above, our net income increased to $271.5 million, or 9.1%, from $129.6the prior period, during the three months ended September 30, 2023.

Fleet revenues were $365.5 million in the three months ended September 30, 20162023, a decrease of 7.5% from the prior period. Fleet revenues were negatively impacted by the macroeconomic environment by approximately $31 million, driven primarily by unfavorable fuel price spreads of $23 million, lower fuel prices of $11 million, partially offset by favorable changes in foreign exchange rates on revenue of $3 million. The decrease in revenue was also due to $202.8the disposition of our Russia business in August 2023 of $17 million and softness in our small fleet customers based in the U.S. Our shift away from micro clients in the U.S. affected our sales and overall results, including lower late fees revenue, which were down 21% from the comparable prior period.

The increase in our consolidated revenuerevenues was due primarily due to:

The impact of acquisitions during 2016 and 2017, which contributed approximately $175 million in additional revenue.
Organicto organic growth of approximately 9% on a constant fuel price, fuel spread margin, foreign currency and pro forma basis,11%, driven by increases in both volumetransaction volumes and new sales growth and net revenue per transactiongrowth of 2% from acquisitions completed in certain of our payment programs.
Although we cannot precisely measure the impact of the macroeconomic environment, in total we believe it had a positive impact on our consolidated revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 over the comparable period

in 2016 of approximately $17 million. We believe the favorable impact of higher fuel prices2022 and fuel spread margins, primarily in the U.S., had a favorable impact on consolidated revenues of approximately $22 million. Conversely, changes in foreign exchange rates had an unfavorable impact on consolidated revenues of approximately $5 million due to unfavorable fluctuations in foreign exchange rates primarily in Brazil and the United Kingdom in the nine months ended September 30, 2017 compared to 2016.

These increases were2023, partially offset by the impact ofmacroeconomic environment that negatively impacted revenue growth by 2%. Revenues were also negatively impacted compared to the prior period by the disposition of the NexTraqour Russia business in July 2017 of approximately $10 million.

North America revenues increased from $950.5 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2016 to $1,037.4 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2017, an increase of $86.8 million, or 9.1%. The increase in our North America segment revenue was primarily due to:

The impact of our Cambridge acquisition during the third quarter of 2017, which contributed approximately $12 million in additional revenue.
Organic growth of approximately 8%, on a constant fuel price, fuel spread margin and pro forma basis, driven by increases in both volume and revenue per transaction in certain of our payment programs.
Although we cannot precisely measure the impact of the macroeconomic environment, in total we believe it had a positive impact on our North America segment revenue in nine months ended September 30, 2017 over the comparable period in 2016 of approximately $19 million. This was primarily due to the favorable impact of changes in fuel prices and slightly higher fuel spread margins.

These increases were partially offset by the impact of the disposition of the NexTraq business in July 2017 of approximately $10 million.

This was primarily due to$31 million, unfavorable fluctuations infuel price spreads of approximately $9 million and unfavorable foreign exchange rates partially offset by the impact of higher fuel prices.approximately $4 million, mostly in our U.K. and European businesses.
Consolidated operating expenses
Merchant commissions. Merchant commissions increased from $78.8Processing. Processing expenses were $618.4 million in the nine months ended September 30, 20162023, an increase of 9.8% compared to $82.7the prior period. Increases were primarily due to approximately $29 million of expenses related to acquisitions completed in 2022 and 2023, incremental bad debt of $13 million and higher variable expenses driven by increased transaction volumes. Bad debt expense increased over the prior period as customer spend increased due to new sales and higher fuel prices in previous periods. These new customers tend to have higher collection loss rates. Additionally, we experienced higher losses among micro-SMB (small-medium business) customers during the first half of 2023 who were more severely impacted by negative economic conditions, which we addressed by shifting away from micro clients.
Selling. Selling expenses were $254.0 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2017, an2023, an increase of $3.910.3% from the prior period. Increases in selling expenses were primarily associated with approximately $17 million or 5.0%. This increase was primarily dueof expenses related to the fluctuation of the margin between the wholesale costacquisitions completed in 2022 and retail price of fuel2023 and the impact ofcommissions from higher volume in certain revenue streams where merchant commissions are paid.sales volume.
Processing. ProcessingGeneral and administrative. General and administrative expenses increased from $256.7were $461.9 million in the nine months ended September 30, 20162023, an increase of 4.9% from the prior period. Increases in general and administrative expenses were primarily due to $316.4the impact of acquisitions completed in 2022 and 2023 of approximately $24 million and other increases associated with the growth of our business over the comparable prior period. These increases were partially offset by $10 million of lower stock based compensation expense.
Depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization expenses were $252.7 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2017,2023, an increase of $59.7 million, or 23.2%.8.7% from the prior period. Increases in processingdepreciation and amortization expenses were primarily due to expenses relatedincremental capital investments over the past three years, as well as approximately $13 million due to acquisitions completed in 20162022 and 2017 of approximately $45 million, inclusive of incremental bad debt expense of $11 million, as well as the impact of changes in foreign exchange rates, partially offset by the impact of negotiated lower vendor processing costs. The increase in bad debt2023.
Consolidated operating income
Operating income was primarily due to bad debt inherent in the acquired STP business. These increases were partially offset by the impact of disposition of the NexTraq business of approximately $3 million.
Selling. Selling expenses increased from $92.7$1,232.8 million in the nine months ended September 30, 20162023, an increase of 14.4% compared to $122.9the prior period. The increase in operating income was primarily due to the reasons discussed above and disciplined expense management, resulting in EBITDA margin expansion of 120 basis points over the prior period. These favorable effects were partially offset by the flow through impact on operating income of unfavorable changes in foreign exchange rates of approximately $5 million.
Other (income) expense, net. Other (income) expense, net was $15.1 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2023, which primarily represents the net gain of approximately $13.7 million resulting from the disposal of our Russia business during the third quarter of 2023.
Interest expense, net. Interest expense, net was $256.6 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2017,2023, an increase of $30.2$166.1 million or 32.6%. Increasesfrom the prior period. The increase in spending wereinterest expense was primarily due to ongoing expenses related to acquisitions completedrising interest rates on our borrowings and net cash used in 2016 and 2017 of approximately $19 million and additional spending in certain lines of business. These increases werefinancing activities, partially offset by the impactbenefit of disposition of the NexTraq business of approximately $1 million.

Generalhigher cash balances in certain foreign jurisdictions and administrative. General and administrative expenses increased from $209.1 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2016 to $275.0 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2017, an increase of $66.0 million, or 31.5%. The increase was primarily due to ongoing expenses related to acquisitions completed in 2016 and 2017 of approximately $28 million, increased stock based compensation expense of approximately $19 million and increases in other professional fees of approximately $7 million. These increases were partially offset by the impact of disposition of the NexTraq business of approximately $1 million.

Depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization increased from $141.8 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2016 to $198.7 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2017, an increase of $56.9 million, or 40.1%. The increase was primarily due to amortization of intangible assets related to acquisitions completed in 2016 and 2017 of approximately $39 million and incremental expense related to capitalized development of software. These increases were partially offset by the impact of disposition of the NexTraq business of approximately $2 million.

Investment loss (income). Investment loss was $52.5 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2017, compared to investment income of $2.2 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2016. We regularly evaluate the carrying value of our Masternaut investment and during the third quarter of 2017, we determined that the fair value of our 44% investment in Masternaut had declined as a result of our loss of significant influence due to the amendment of the Masternaut investment agreement, executed September 30, 2017. As a result, we determined that the carrying value of our investment exceeded its fair value, and concluded that this decline in value was other than temporary. We recorded a $44.6 million impairment loss in the Masternaut investment that includes adjustment for $31.4 million of currency losses previously recognized in accumulated other comprehensive income, in the nine months ended September 30, 2017, in the accompanying Unaudited Consolidated Statements of Income.

Other (income) expense, net. Other income, net was $173.6 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2017, compared to other expense, net of $1.1 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2016. The increase was due primarily to the pre-tax gain on the sale of our Nextraq business of $175 million in the third quarter of 2017.

Interest expense, net. Interest expense increased from $49.9 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2016 to $76.3 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2017, an increase of $26.4 million, or 52.9%. The increase in interest expense is primarily due to the impact of additional borrowings to finance the acquisitions of STP and Travelcard completed during the third quarter of 2016 and Cambridge completed during the third quarter of 2017, and increases in LIBOR.income from higher interest rates.

Loss on extinguishment of debt. Loss on extinguishment of debt of $3.3 million relates to our write-off of debt issuance costs associated with the refinancing of our existing credit facility during the third quarter of 2017.
Provision for income taxes. The The provision for income taxes and effective tax rate were $265.5 million and 26.8% for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, compared to $249.2 million and 25.5% for the prior period. Income tax expense is based on an estimated annual effective rate, which requires us to make our best estimate of annual pretax accounting income or loss before consideration of tax or benefit discretely recognized in the period in which such occur. Our provision for income taxes for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 increased primarily due to higher income before income taxes and less excess tax benefit on stock option exercises and an increase of $1.6 million incurred from $132.5an uncertain tax position related to previous years. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, the determination that certain foreign income was permanently reinvested resulted in a $9.0 million tax benefit that lowered the tax rate by 0.9%.
Net income. For the reasons discussed above, our net income decreased to $726.0 million in the nine months ended September 30, 20162023, a decrease of 0.4% from the prior period.
Segment Results
Fleet
Fleet revenues were relatively flat at $1,120.8 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2023. Fleet revenues were negatively impacted by the macroeconomic environment by approximately $40 million, driven primarily by lower fuel prices of $27 million, unfavorable fuel price spreads of $9 million and unfavorable changes in foreign exchange rates on revenue of $4 million. The decrease in revenue was also due to $227.8the disposition of our Russia business in August 2023 of $17 million and softness in our small fleet customers based in the U.S. Our shift away from micro clients in the U.S. affected our sales and overall results, including lower late fees revenue. These negative impacts were offset by organic revenue growth of 4%,driven by new sales growth in our international markets, higher revenue per transaction, as well as the impact of acquisitions, which contributed approximately $5 million in revenue.
Fleet operating income was also relatively flat at $547.6 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2017, an increase of $95.3 million, or 71.9%. We provide for income taxes during interim periods based on an estimate of our effective tax rate for2023 from the year. Discrete items and changes in the estimate of the annual tax rate are recorded in theprior period they occur. Our effective tax rate was 33.2% for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 as compareddue to 27.1% in the nine months ended September 30, 2016. The increase in the provision for income taxes was due primarily to the pretax gain on sale of the Nextraq business of $175 million at the higher U.S. tax rate, all at the higher U.S. tax rate, and the Masternaut impairment charge in the quarter, which had no corresponding tax benefit. The 2016 tax rate was favorably impacted by a one-time nonrecurring net gain at our Masternaut investment that favorably impacted pre-tax earnings, but was not subject to income tax. The 2016 rate was also favorably impacted by higher excess tax benefits on share-based compensation in 2016 versus 2017.

We pay taxes in many different taxing jurisdictions, including the U.S., most U.S. states and many non-U.S. jurisdictions. The tax rates in certain non-U.S. taxing jurisdictions are lower than the U.S. tax rate. Consequently, as our earnings fluctuate between taxing jurisdictions, our effective tax rate fluctuates. Also, the excess tax benefit on share based compensation is part of the effective tax rate. As a result, the tax rate is impacted by the number of stock options exercised or restricted shares vested during the reporting period.
Net income. For the reasons discussed above, the flow through impact of the disposition of our netRussia business, which resulted in lower operating income increased from $357.0of approximately $12 million and incremental bad debt of $3 million.

Liquidity and capital resources
Our principal liquidity requirements are to service and repay our indebtedness, make acquisitions of businesses and commercial account portfolios, repurchase shares of our common stock and meet working capital, needs, tax and capital expenditure needs.
Sources of liquidity
liquidity. We believe that our current level of cash and borrowing capacity under our Credit Facility and Securitization Facility (each defined below), together with expected future cash flows from operations, will be sufficient to meet the needs of our existing operations and planned requirements for the next 12 months and the foreseeable future, based on our current assumptions. At September 30, 2017,2023, we had approximately $1.8 billion in total liquidity, consisting of approximately $0.7 billion available under our Credit Facility and unrestricted cash balances totaled $1,018.3 million, withof $1.1 billion, of which approximately $183.5 million restricted. $0.6 billion is required for working capital purposes. Restricted cash primarily represents customer deposits repayable on demand held in the Czech Republic andcertain geographies with legal restrictions, collateral received from customers for cross-currency transactions in our Comdatacross-border payments business, in the U.S., which we are restricted from usinguse other than to repay customer deposits.
At September 30, 2017, cashdeposits and cash equivalents held in foreign subsidiaries where we have determined we are permanently reinvested is $509.3 million. All of the cashsecure and cash equivalents held by our foreign subsidiaries, excluding restricted cash, are availablesettle cross-currency transactions, and collateral posted with banks for general corporate purposes. Our current intent is to permanently reinvest these funds outside of the U.S. Our current expectation for funds heldhedging positions in our foreign subsidiaries is to use the funds to finance foreign organic growth, to pay for potential future foreign acquisitions and to repay any foreign borrowings that may arise from time to time. We currently believe that funds generated from our U.S. operations, along with available borrowing capacity in the U.S. will be sufficient to fund our

U.S. operations for the foreseeable future, and therefore do not foresee a need to repatriate cash held by our foreign subsidiaries in a taxable transaction to fund our U.S. operations. However, if at a future date or time these funds are needed for our operations in the U.S. or we otherwise believe it is in our best interests to repatriate all or a portion of such funds, we may be required to accrue and pay U.S. taxes to repatriate these funds. No assurances can be provided as to the amount or timing thereof, the tax consequences related thereto or the ultimate impact any such action may have on our results of operations or financial condition.

Securitization Facility
We are a party to a $1.7 billion receivables purchase agreement among FleetCorFLEETCOR Funding LLC, as seller, PNC Bank, National Association as administrator, and various purchaser agents, conduit purchasers and related committed purchasers parties thereto which was amended and restated for(the "Securitization Facility"). The Securitization Facility matures on August 18, 2025. At September 30, 2023, the fifth time as of November 14, 2014. We refer to this arrangement as the Securitization Facility. There have been several amendments to the Securitization Facility. The current purchase limit underinterest rate on the Securitization Facility is $950 million and the Securitization Facility expires on November 14, 2017. The Securitization Facility contains certain customary financial covenants. There is a program fee equal to one month LIBOR or the Commercial Paper Rate of 1.27% plus 0.90% and 0.85% plus 0.90% as of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively. The unused facility fee is payable at a rate of 0.40% as of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively.was 6.38%.
The Securitization Facility provides for certain termination events, which includes nonpayment, upon the occurrence of which the administrator may declare the facility termination date to have occurred, may exercise certain enforcement rights with respect to the receivables, and may appoint a successor servicer, among other things.
We were in compliance with theall financial and non-financial covenant requirements related to our Securitization Facility as of September 30, 2017.2023.

Cross-Border Facilities
We carefully monitor and manage initial and variation margin requirements for our cross-border solutions, which can result in transitory periods of elevated liquidity needs in cases where the currency market experiences disruption. In order to help mitigate that liquidity risk, we have recently entered into facilities intended to provide additional means to manage working capital needs for our cross-border solutions.
During the three months ended September 30, 2023, we entered into an $80.0 million unsecured overdraft facility which may be accessible via written request and corresponding authorization from the lender. There is no guarantee the uncommitted capacity will be available to us on a future date. Interest on drawn balances accrues at a fixed rate equal to the lender's reference rate (as defined in the agreement) plus 1%. As of September 30, 2023, we had no borrowings outstanding under the uncommitted credit facility.
During October 2023, we entered into a 364-day committed revolving credit facility with a total commitment of $40.0 million. This committed facility matures on October 10, 2024. Borrowings under the new facility will bear interest at the borrower’s option at a rate equal to (a) Term SOFR (as defined in the agreement) plus 1.25% or (b) the Base Rate (determined by reference to the greatest of (i) the Federal Funds Effective Rate, at that time, plus 0.50%, (ii) the Prime Rate, at that time, and (iii) Term SOFR (as defined in the agreement) at such time plus 1.00%).
Cash Flow Hedges
On January 22, 2019, we entered into three LIBOR-based swap contracts. One contract (which matured in January 2022) had a notional value of $1.0 billion, one contract (which matured in January 2023) had a notional value of $500 million and the remaining contract, which will mature on December 19, 2023, has a notional value of $500 million. The objective of these swap contracts was to reduce the variability of cash flows in the previously unhedged interest payments associated with $2.0 billion of variable rate debt, the sole source of which is due to changes in the LIBOR benchmark interest rate. These swap contracts qualify as hedging instruments and have been designated as cash flow hedges. On May 4, 2023, we amended the remaining LIBOR-based swap. The amendment replaced LIBOR on the swap with one-month term SOFR resulting in a pay-fixed monthly rate of 2.50%, without further changes to the terms of the swap.
During January 2023, we entered into five receive-variable SOFR, pay-fixed interest rate swap derivative contracts with a cumulative notional U.S. dollar value of $1.5 billion as shown disaggregated in the table below.
In August 2023, we entered into eight additional receive-variable SOFR, pay-fixed interest rate swap derivative contracts with a cumulative notional U.S. dollar value of $2.0 billion, as shown disaggregated in the table below.
As of September 30, 2023, we had the following outstanding interest rate swap derivatives that qualify as hedging instruments within designated cash flow hedges of variable interest rate risk (in millions):

$2504.19%7/31/2027
The purpose of these contracts is to reduce the variability of cash flows in interest payments associated with $4.0 billion of unspecified variable rate debt, the sole source of which is due to changes in the SOFR benchmark interest rate. For each of these swap contracts, we pay a fixed monthly rate and receive one month SOFR.
Our cash flow hedges resulted in a $24.6 million reduction in interest expense, net during the nine months ended September 30, 2023.

Net Investment Hedge
In February 2023, we entered into a cross-currency interest rate swap that we designated as a net investment hedge of our investments in euro-denominated operations. This contract effectively converts $500 million of U.S. dollar equivalent to an obligation denominated in euro, and partially offsets the impact of changes in currency rates on our euro-denominated net investments. This contract also creates a positive interest differential on the U.S. dollar-denominated portion of the swap, resulting in a 1.96% interest rate savings on the USD notional.
Hedge effectiveness is tested based on changes in the fair value of the cross-currency swap due to changes in the USD/euro spot rate. We anticipate perfect effectiveness of the designated hedging relationship and record changes in the fair value of the cross-currency interest rate swap associated with changes in the spot rate through accumulated other comprehensive loss. Excluded components associated with the forward differential are recognized directly in earnings as interest expense, net. We recognized a benefit of $6.4 million in interest expense, net for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 related to these excluded components. The cross-currency interest rate swap designated as a net investment hedge is recorded in prepaid expenses and other current assets at a fair value of $6.9 million as of September 30, 2023.
Stock Repurchase Program

On February 4, 2016, we announced that our Board of Directors approved a stock repurchase program (the(as updated from time to time, the "Program") under which we may purchase upauthorizing us to an aggregate of $500 million ofrepurchase our common stock overfrom time to time until February 1, 2024. On October 25, 2022, we announced the following 18 month period. On July 27, 2017, our Board of Directors authorized an increase inincreased the aggregate size of the Program by an additional $250 million and an extension$1.0 billion to $7.1 billion. Since the beginning of the Program bythrough September 30, 2023, 28,314,820 shares have been repurchased for an additional 18 months. On November 1, 2017, we announced that our Boardaggregate purchase price of Directors had authorized an increase in the size$6.4 billion, leaving us up to $0.7 billion of the Program by an additional $350 million, resulting in total aggregate repurchases authorizedremaining authorization available under the Program of $1.1 billion. With the increase and giving effect to our $590 million of previousfor future repurchases we may repurchase up to $510 million in shares of our common stock.
On August 18, 2023, as part of the Program, we entered an accelerated share repurchase ("ASR') agreement ("2023 ASR Agreement") with a third-party financial institution to repurchase $450 million of its common stock. Pursuant to the 2023 ASR Agreement, we delivered $450 million in cash and received 1,372,841 shares based on a stock price of $262.23 on August 18, 2023. The 2023 ASR Agreement was completed on September 26, 2023, at anywhich time prior to February 1, 2019.we received 293,588 additional shares based on a final weighted average per share purchase price during the repurchase period of $270.04.
Any stock repurchases may be made at times and in such amounts as deemed appropriate. The timing and amount of stock repurchases, if any, will depend on a variety of factors including the stock price, market conditions, corporate and regulatory requirements, and any additional constraints related to material inside information the Companywe may possess. Any repurchases have been and are expected to be funded by a combination of available cash flow from the business, working capital and debt. .
On August 3, 2017, as part of the Program, we entered an Accelerated Share Repurchase agreement ("ASR Agreement") with a third-party financial institution to repurchase $250 million of its common stock. Pursuant to the ASR Agreement, we delivered $250 million in cash and received 1,491,647 shares based on a stock price of $142.46 on August 7, 2017. The ASR Agreement completed on September 7, 2017, at which time we received 263,012 additional shares based on a final weighted average per share purchase price during the repurchase period of $142.48.
We accounted for the ASR Agreement as two separate transactions: (i) as shares of reacquired common stock for the shares delivered to us upon effectiveness of the ASR Agreement and (ii) as a forward contract indexed to our common stock for the undelivered shares. The initial delivery of shares was included in treasury stock at cost and results in an immediate reduction of the outstanding shares used to calculate the weighted average common shares outstanding for basic and diluted earnings per share. The forward contracts indexed to our own common stock met the criteria for equity classification, were initially recorded in additional paid-in capital and then reclassified to treasury stock upon completion of the ASR agreement.
Since the beginning of the Program, 4,114,104 shares for an aggregate purchase price of $590 million have been repurchased. There were 2,854,959 shares totaling $402.4 million repurchased under the Program during the nine months ended September 30, 2017.
Sale of NexTraq
As part of our plan to exit the telematics business, on July 27, 2017, we sold NexTraq, a U.S. fleet telematics business, to Michelin Group for $316 million. We recorded a pre-tax gain on the disposal of NexTraq of $175 million during the third quarter of 2017, which is net of transaction closing costs.We recorded tax on the gain of disposal of $65.8 million. The gain on the disposal is included in other (income) expense, net in the accompanying Unaudited Consolidated Statements of Income. NexTraq has historically been included in the Company's North America segment.
Critical accounting policies and estimates
In applying the accounting policies that we use to prepare our consolidated financial statements, we necessarily make accounting estimates that affect our reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenuerevenues and expenses. Some of these estimates require us to make assumptions about matters that are highly uncertain at the time we make the accounting estimates. We base these assumptions and the resulting estimates on historical information and other factors that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, and we evaluate these assumptions and estimates on an ongoing basis. In many instances, however, we reasonably could have used different accounting estimates and, in other instances, changes in our accounting estimates could occur from period to period, with the result in each case being a material change in the financial statement presentation of our financial condition or results of operations. We refer to estimates of this type as critical accounting estimates.
Accounting estimates necessarily require subjective determinations about future events and conditions. During the ninethree months ended September 30, 2017, other than noted in footnote 1, "Summary of Significant Accounting Policies",2023, we have not adopted any new critical accounting policies that had a significant impact upon our consolidated financial statements, have not changed any critical accounting policies and have not changed the application of any critical accounting policies from the year ended December 31, 2016.2022. For critical accounting policies, refer to the Critical Accounting Estimates in Item 7 – Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 20162022 and our summary of significant accounting policies in Note 1 of our notesNotes to the unaudited consolidated financial statementsUnaudited Consolidated Financial Statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Management’s Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
We have included in the discussion above certain financial measures that were not prepared in accordance with GAAP. Any analysis of non-GAAP financial measures should be used only in conjunction with results presented in accordance with GAAP.

Below, we define the non-GAAP financial measures, provide a reconciliation of theeach non-GAAP financial measure to the most directly comparable financial measure calculated in accordance with GAAP, and discuss the reasons that we believe this information is useful to management and may be useful to investors.
Adjusted revenues
We have defined Because our non-GAAP financial measures are not standardized measures, they may not be directly comparable with the non-GAAP financial measures of other companies using the same or similar non-GAAP financial measures. Although management uses these non-GAAP measures to set goals and measure performance, they have no standardized meaning prescribed by GAAP. These non-GAAP measures are presented solely to permit investors to more fully understand how our management assesses underlying performance. These non-GAAP measures are not, and should not be viewed as, a substitute for GAAP measures, and should be viewed in conjunction with our GAAP financial statements and financial measures. As a result, such non-GAAP measures have limits in their usefulness to investors.
Organic Revenues, net by KPI. Organic revenue growth is calculated as revenue in the current period adjusted revenuesfor the impact of changes in the macroeconomic environment (to include fuel price, fuel price spreads and changes in foreign exchange rates) over revenue in the comparable prior period adjusted to include or remove the impact of acquisitions and/or divestitures and non-recurring items that have occurred subsequent to that period.We define the pro forma and macro adjusted revenue as revenues,revenue, net less merchant commissions as reflected in our statement of income, statement.
adjusted to eliminate the impact of the macroeconomic environment and the impact of acquisitions and dispositions. The macroeconomic environment impact includes the impact that market fuel price spreads, fuel prices and foreign exchange rates have on our business. We use pro forma and macro adjusted revenues as a basisrevenue and transactions to evaluate our revenues, net of the commissions that are paid to merchants to participateorganic growth in our card programs. The commissions paid to merchants can vary when market spreads fluctuate in muchrevenue and the same way as revenues are impacted when market spreads fluctuate.associated transactions. We believe that adjustedorganic revenue growth is an appropriate supplemental measure of financial performance and may be useful to investors tofor understanding our revenuethe performance on a consistent basis. Adjusted revenues are not intended to be a substitute for GAAP financial measures and should not be used as such.of FLEETCOR.

We believe it is useful to exclude non-cash stockshare based compensation expense from adjusted net income because non-cash equity grants made at a certain price and point in time do not necessarily reflect how our business is performing at any particular time and stockshare based compensation expense is not a key measure of our core operating performance. We also believe that amortization expense can vary substantially from company to company and from period to period depending upon their financing and accounting methods, the fair value and average expected life of their acquired intangible assets, their capital structures and the method by which their assets were acquired. Therefore,acquired; therefore, we have excluded amortization expense from our adjusted net income.

Item 3.Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
With the acquisition of Cambridge in August 2017, we have additional foreign exchange risk and associated foreign exchange risk management requirements due to the nature of our international payments provider business. The majority of this business' revenue is from exchanges of currency at spot rates, which enable customers to make cross-currency payments. In addition, this business also writes foreign currency forward and option contracts for our customers to facilitate future payments. The duration of these derivative contracts at inception is generally less than one year. Cambridge aggregates its foreign exchange exposures arising from customer contracts, including the derivative contracts described above, and hedges (economic hedge) the resulting net currency risks by entering into offsetting contracts with established financial institution counterparties.

A hypothetical uniform 10% strengthening or weakening in the value of the U.S. dollar relative to all other currencies in which our net income is generated would have resulted in a decrease/increase to pre-tax income of approximately $1.5 million based on our unhedged exposure to foreign currency at September 30, 2017.
As of September 30, 2017, other than noted above,2023, there have been no material changes to our market risk from that disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016.2022.

Item 4.Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
As of September 30, 2017,2023, management carried out, under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934). Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of September 30, 2017,2023, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective in ensuring that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in applicable rules and forms and are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in those reports is accumulated and communicated to management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended September 30, 2017,2023, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II—OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1.Legal Proceedings

In the ordinary course of business, we are subject tothe Company is involved in various pending and potentialor threatened legal actions, arbitration proceedings, claims, subpoenas, and matters relating to compliance with laws and regulations (collectively, legal proceedings)"legal proceedings"). Based on our current knowledge, management presently does not believe that the liabilities arising from these legal proceedings will have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. However, it is possible that the ultimate resolution of these legal proceedings could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition for any particular period.
Shareholder Class Action and Derivative Lawsuits
On June 14, 2017, a shareholder filed a class action complaint in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Georgia against the Company and certain of its officers and directors on behalf of all persons who purchased or otherwise acquired the Company’s stock between February 5, 2016 and May 2, 2017. On October 13, 2017, the shareholder filed an amended complaint asserting claims on behalf of a putative class of all persons who purchased or otherwise acquired the Company's common stock between February 4, 2016 and May 3, 2017. The complaint alleges that the defendants made false or misleading statements regarding fee charges and the reasons for its earnings and growth in certain press releases and other public statements in violation of the federal securities laws. Plaintiff seeks class certification, unspecified monetary damages, costs, and attorneys’ fees. The Company disputes the allegations in the complaint and intends to vigorously defend against the claims.
On July 10, 2017, a shareholder derivative complaint was filed against the Company and certain of the Company’s directors and officers in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Georgia ("Federal Derivative Action") seeking recovery from the Company. The District Court dismissed the Federal Derivative Action on October 21, 2020, and the United States Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit affirmed the dismissal on July 27, 2022, ending the lawsuit. A similar derivative lawsuit that had been filed on January 9, 2019 in the Superior Court of Gwinnett County, Georgia (“State Derivative Action”) was likewise dismissed on October 31, 2022.
On January 20, 2023, the previous State Derivative Action plaintiffs filed a new derivative lawsuit in the Superior Court of Gwinnett County, Georgia. The new lawsuit, City of Aventura Police Officers’ Retirement Fund, derivatively on behalf of the Company. The derivative complaintFleetCor Technologies, Inc. v. Ronald F. Clarke and Eric R. Dey, alleges that the defendants issued a false and misleading proxy statement in violation of the federal securities laws; that defendants breached their fiduciary duties by causing or permitting the Company to make allegedlyengage in unfair or deceptive marketing and billing practices, making false and misleading public statements concerning the Company’s fee charges and financial and business prospects;prospects, and that certain defendants breached their fiduciary duties through allegedlymaking improper sales of stock. The complaint seeks unspecifiedapproximately $118 million in monetary damages on behalf of the Company, corporate governance reforms,including contribution by defendants as joint tortfeasors with the Company in unfair and deceptive practices, and disgorgement of profits, benefitsincentive pay and compensation bystock compensation. On January 24, 2023, the defendants, restitution, costs,previous Federal Derivative Action plaintiffs filed a similar new derivative lawsuit, Jerrell Whitten, derivatively on behalf of FleetCor Technologies, Inc. v. Ronald F. Clarke and attorneys’Eric R. Dey, against Mr. Clarke and experts’ fees. On August 18, 2017, the court entered an order deferring the case pending a ruling on the defendants' motion to dismiss the putative shareholder class action, or until otherwise agreed to by the parties.Mr. Dey in Gwinnett County, Georgia. The defendants dispute the allegations in the complaintderivative complaints and intend to vigorously defend against the claims.
FTC Investigation
In October 2017, the Federal Trade Commission ("FTC") issued a Notice of Civil Investigative Demand to the Company for the production of documentation and a request for responses to written interrogatories. After discussions with the Company, the FTC proposed in October 2019 to resolve potential claims relating to the Company’s advertising and marketing practices, principally in its U.S. direct fuel card business within its North American Fuel Card business. The parties reached impasse primarily related to what the Company believes are unreasonable demands for redress made by the FTC. On December 20, 2019, the FTC filed a lawsuit in the Northern District of Georgia against the Company and Ron Clarke. See FTC v. FLEETCOR and Ronald F. Clarke, No. 19-cv-05727 (N.D. Ga.). The complaint alleges the Company and Clarke violated the FTC Act’s prohibitions on unfair and deceptive acts and practices. The complaint seeks among other things injunctive relief, consumer redress, and costs of suit. The Company continues to believe that the FTC’s claims are without merit and these matters are not and will not be material to the Company’s financial performance. On April 17, 2021, the FTC filed a motion for summary judgment. On April 22, 2021, the United States Supreme Court held unanimously in AMG Capital Management v. FTC that the FTC does not have authority under current law to seek monetary redress by means of Section 13(b) of the FTC Act, which is the means by which the FTC has sought such redress in this case. FLEETCOR cross-moved for summary judgment regarding the FTC’s ability to seek monetary or injunctive relief on May 17, 2021. On August 13, 2021, the FTC filed a motion to stay or to voluntarily dismiss without prejudice the case pending in the Northern District of Georgia in favor of a parallel administrative action under Section 5 of the FTC Act that it filed on August 11, 2021 in the FTC’s administrative process. Apart from the jurisdiction and statutory change, the FTC’s administrative complaint makes the same factual allegations as the FTC’s original complaint filed in December 2019. The Company opposed the FTC’s motion for a stay or to voluntarily dismiss, and the court denied the FTC’s motion on February 7, 2022. In the meantime, the FTC’s administrative action is stayed. On August 9, 2022, the District Court for the Northern District of Georgia granted the FTC's motion for summary judgment as to liability for the Company and Ron Clarke, but granted the Company's motion for summary judgment as to the FTC's claim for monetary relief as to both the Company and Ron Clarke. The Company intends to appeal this decision after final judgment is issued. On October 20-21, 2022, the court held a hearing on the scope of injunctive relief. At the conclusion of the hearing, the Court did not enter either the FTC’s proposed order or the Company’s proposed order, and instead suggested that the parties enter mediation. Following mediation, both parties have filed proposed orders with the Court.
On June 8, 2023, the Court issued an Order for Permanent Injunction and Other Relief. The Company filed its notice of appeal to the United States Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit on August 3, 2023. On August 17, 2023, the FTC Commission ordered that the stay of the parallel Section 5 administration action will remain in place during the pendency of the Eleventh Circuit appeal. The Company has incurred and continues to incur legal and other fees related to this FTC complaint. Any
47


settlement of this matter, or defense against the lawsuit, could involve costs to the Company, including legal fees, redress, penalties, and remediation expenses.
Estimating an amount or range of possible losses resulting from litigation proceedings is inherently difficult and requires an extensive degree of judgment, particularly where, as here, the matters involve indeterminate claims for monetary damages and are in the stages of the proceedings where key factual and legal issues have not been resolved. For these reasons, we arethe Company is currently unable to predict the ultimate timing or outcome of, or reasonably estimate the possible losses or a range of possible losses resulting from, the matters described above.

Item 1A.Risk Factors

InThe information presented below supplements the risk factors set forth in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022. In addition to the other information set forth in this report, you should carefully consider the factors discussed in Part I, Item 1A. “Risk Factors”"Risk Factors" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 20162022 and in Part II, Item 1A.1A, "Risk Factors" in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2017 filedother reports we file with the Securities and Exchange Commission, on March 1, 2017 and August 8, 2017, respectively,from time to time, all of which could materially affect our business, financial condition or future results.

Risk factors" to our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016.2022.


Derivatives Regulations

Rules adopted under the Dodd-Frank Act by the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (the "CFTC"), as well as the provisions of the European Market Infrastructure Regulation and its technical standards, which are directly applicable in the member states of the European Union, have subjected certain of the foreign exchange derivative contracts we offer to our customers as part of Cambridge's business, to reporting, recordkeeping, and other requirements. Additionally, certain foreign exchange derivatives transactions we may enter into in the future may be subject to centralized clearing requirements, or may be subject to margin requirements in the United States and European Union. Other jurisdictions outside the United States and the European Union are considering, have implemented, or are implementing regulations similar to those described above. Derivatives regulations have added costs to our business and any additional requirements, such as future registration requirements and increased regulation of derivative contracts, may result in additional costs or impact the way we conduct our hedging activities, as well as impact how we

conduct our business within our international payments provider operations. In particular, the CFTC has recently issued a proposed rule that, if adopted as proposed, would increase the likelihood that we will have to register one or more of our subsidiaries with the CFTC as swap dealers. Swap dealers are subject to a comprehensive regulatory framework and compliance with this framework will lead to additional costs, including costs relating to regulatory capital and margin requirements, and may impact how we conduct our hedging activities and derivatives business with customers. We are currently evaluating the impact the proposed rule, if adopted, would have on our hedging activities and operations.

Our compliance with these requirements has resulted, and may continue to result, in additional costs to our business and may impact our international payments provider business operations. Furthermore, our failure to comply with these requirements could result in fines and other sanctions, as well as necessitate a temporary or permanent cessation to some or all of our derivative related activities. Any such fines, sanctions or limitations on our business could adversely affect our operations and financial results. Additionally, the regulatory regimes for derivatives in the United States and European Union, such as under the Dodd-Frank Act and the European Markets in Financial Instruments Directive known as "MiFID II," are continuing to evolve and changes to such regimes, our designation under such regimes, or the implementation of new rules under such regimes, such as future registration requirements and increased regulation of derivative contracts, may result in additional costs to our business. Other jurisdictions outside the United States and the European Union are considering, have implemented, or are implementing regulations similar to those described above and these may result in greater costs to us as well.

Global economic downturns or slower growth or declines in the money transfer, payment service, and other markets in which we operate, including downturns or declines related to interruptions in migration patterns, and difficult conditions in global financial markets andfinancial market disruptions could adversely affect our business, financialcondition, results of operations, and cash flows.

The global economy has experienced in recent years, and may experience, downturns, volatility and disruption, and we face certain risks relating to such events, including:

Our international payments provider business provides currency conversion and foreign exchange hedging services to our customers, exposing us to foreign currency exchange risk. In order to help mitigate these risks, we enter into derivative contracts. However, these contracts do not eliminate all of the risks related to fluctuating foreign currency rates.
Our international payments provider business is heavily dependent on global trade. A downturn in global trade or the failure of long-term import growth rates to return to historic levels could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows, and our cash management strategies. Additionally, as customer hedging activity in our international payments provider business generally varies with currency volatility, we have experienced and may experience in the future lower foreign exchange revenues in periods of lower currency volatility.
The counterparties to the derivative financial instruments that we use in our international payments provider business to reduce our exposure to various market risks, including changes in foreign exchange rates, may fail to honor their obligations, which could expose us to risks we had sought to mitigate. This includes the exposure generated when we write derivative contracts to our customers as part of our cross-currency payments business, and we typically hedge the net exposure through offsetting contracts with established financial institution counterparties. That failure could have an adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows.
Risks associated with operations outside the United States and foreign currencies could adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows.

We have additional foreign exchange risk and associated foreign exchange risk management requirements due to the nature of our international payments provider business. The majority of this business' revenue is from exchanges of currency at spot rates, which enable customers to make cross-currency payments. Additionally, this business also writes foreign currency forward and option contracts for our customers. The duration of these derivative contracts at inception is generally less than one year. The credit risk associated with our derivative contracts increases when foreign currency exchange rates move against our customers, possibly impacting their ability to honor their obligations to deliver currency to us or to maintain appropriate collateral with us.

Our international payments provider business aggregates its foreign exchange exposures arising from customer contracts, including the derivative contracts described above, and hedges the resulting net currency risks by entering into offsetting contracts with established financial institution counterparties. If we are unable to obtain offsetting positions, our business, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows could be adversely affected.

We face credit, liquidity and fraud risks from our agents, consumers, businesses, and third-party processors that could adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows.

We are exposed to credit risk in our international payments provider business relating to: (a) derivatives written by us to our customers and (b) the extension of trade credit when transactions are paid to recipients prior to our receiving cleared funds from the sending customers. The credit risk associated with our derivative contracts increases when foreign currency exchange rates move against our customers, possibly impacting their ability to honor their obligations to deliver currency to us or
to maintain appropriate collateral with us. If a customer becomes insolvent, files for bankruptcy, commits fraud or otherwise fails to pay us, we may be exposed to the value of an offsetting position with a financial institution counterparty for the derivatives or may bear financial risk for those receivables where we have offered trade credit.

If we are unable to maintain our relationships with banks needed to conduct our services, or fail to comply with our contract requirements, our business, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows would be adversely affected.

In our international payments provider business, we facilitate payment and foreign exchange solutions, primarily cross-border, cross-currency transactions, for small and medium size enterprises and other organizations. Increased regulation and compliance requirements are impacting these businesses by making it more costly for us to provide our services or by making it more cumbersome for businesses to do business with us. We may also have difficulty establishing or maintaining banking relationships needed to conduct our services due to banks’ policies. If we are unable to maintain our current business or banking relationships or establish new relationships under terms consistent with those currently in place, our ability to continue to offer our services may be adversely impacted, which could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows.
