Change Healthcare Inc.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(unaudited and amounts in thousands, except share and per share amounts)

1. Nature of Business and Organization

Change Healthcare Inc. (the “Company”, “our” or “we”) is an independent healthcare technology company, focused on accelerating the transformation of the healthcare system through the power of our healthcare platform. We provide data and analytics-driven solutions to improve clinical, financial and patient engagement outcomes in the U.S. healthcare system. Our platform and comprehensive suite of software, analytics, technology-enabled services and network solutions drive improved results in the complex workflows of healthcare system payers and providers by enhancing clinical decision making, simplifying billing, collection and payment processes, and enabling a better patient experience.

We are a Delaware corporation originally formed on June 22, 2016, to initially hold an equity investment in Change Healthcare LLC (the “Joint Venture”), a joint venture between the Company and McKesson Corporation (“McKesson”).

Amendment of Certificate of Incorporation

Effective June 26, 2019 and in contemplation of our initial public offering of common stock, we amended the certificate of incorporation to effect a 126.4 for 1 stock split for all previously issued shares of common stock, to increase the authorized number of common stock, and to authorize shares of preferred stock. Following this amendment, the authorized shares include 9,000,000,000 shares of common stock (par value $.001 per share), one share of Class X stock (par value $.001 per share), and 900,000,000 shares of preferred stock (par value $.001 per share). As a result of the Merger (defined below), the Class X Stock is no longer available for issuance.

Initial Public Offering

Effective July 1, 2019, we completed our initial public offering of 49,285,713 shares ofoffering. The proceeds from the common stock and a concurrent offering were subsequently contributed to the Joint Venture in exchange for additional units of 5,750,000 tangible equity units (“TEUs”) for net proceeds of $608,679 and $278,875, respectively.the Joint Venture, which together with the Company’s existing holdings represented an approximate 41% interest in the Joint Venture.

McKesson Exit

On March 10, 2020, McKesson completed a split-off of its interest in the Joint Venture through an exchange offer of its common stock for shares of PF2 SpinCo, Inc, a Delaware corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of McKesson (“SpinCo”). Immediately following consummation of the exchange offer, SpinCo was merged with and into Change Healthcare Inc. (the “Merger”). As a result, McKesson no longer owns any voting or economic interest in the Joint Venture. Prior to the Merger, we accounted for our investment in the Joint Venture under the equity method of accounting. Subsequent to the Merger, we own 100% of Change Healthcare LLC, and as a result, consolidate the financial statements of Change Healthcare LLC.

COVID-19 ConsiderationsUnitedHealth Group Incorporated

On January 5, 2021, we entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “UHG Agreement”) with UnitedHealth Group Incorporated (“UnitedHealth Group”), and UnitedHealth Group’s wholly owned subsidiary Cambridge Merger Sub Inc. Pursuant to the UHG Agreement, UnitedHealth Group has agreed to acquire all of the outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock for $25.75 per share in cash (the “UHG Transaction”). On April 13, 2021, our stockholders approved a proposal to adopt the UHG Agreement, thereby satisfying one of the closing conditions contained in the UHG Agreement. The consummation of the transaction remains subject to the satisfaction or, to the extent permitted by law, waiver of other customary closing conditions.

The UHG Agreement contains representations, warranties, covenants, closing conditions and termination rights customary for transactions of this type. Until the earlier of the termination of the UHG Agreement and the consummation of the UHG Transaction, we have agreed to operate our business in the ordinary course and have agreed to certain other operating covenants, as set forth in the UHG Agreement.

On March 24, 2021, the Company and UnitedHealth Group each received a request for additional information and documentary materials (collectively, the “Second Request”) from the U.S. Department of Justice (the “DOJ”) in connection with the DOJ’s review of the UHG Transaction. The effect of the Second Request is to extend the waiting period imposed under the HSR Act until the 30th day after substantial compliance by the Company and UnitedHealth Group with the Second Request (or such other date upon which substantial compliance is considered effective), unless the waiting period is terminated earlier by the DOJ or extended by the parties to the UHG Transaction. On August 7, 2021, the parties entered into a timing agreement (the “Timing Agreement”) with the DOJ pursuant to which they agreed not to consummate the UHG Transaction before 120 days following the date on which both parties certified substantial compliance with the Second Request.

Both the Company and UnitedHealth Group have now certified substantial compliance with the Second Request. On November 1, 2021, the Company and UnitedHealth Group entered into an amendment to the Timing Agreement with the DOJ pursuant to which they agreed not to consummate the Merger before 12:01 a.m. Eastern Time on February 22, 2022 (subject to extension in certain limited circumstances relating to the potential unavailability of certain requested data), unless they have received written notice from the DOJ prior to such date that the DOJ has closed its investigation. The parties have been working cooperatively with the DOJ and will continue to do so.

COVID-19 Considerations

On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization declared the current coronavirus (“COVID-19”) outbreak to be a global pandemic. In response to this declaration and the rapid spread of COVID-19 within the U.S., federal, state and local governments throughout the country imposed varying degrees of restrictions on social and commercial activity to promote social distancing in an effort to slow the spread of the illness. These measures led to weakened conditions in many sectors of the economy, including a decline in healthcare transaction volumes that are integral to our business.

We experienced,In calendar year 2021, the global economy has, with certain setbacks, begun reopening, and expectwider distribution of vaccines will likely encourage greater economic activity. Nevertheless, we are unable to continuepredict how widely the vaccines will be utilized, whether they will be effective in preventing the spread of COVID-19 (including its variant strains), and the extent to experience, an adverse impact onwhich our

business, results of operations, financial results as a result of COVID-19.condition or liquidity will ultimately be impacted by COVID-19. However, we are not presently aware of events or circumstances arising from COVID-19 that would require us to revise the carrying value of our assets or liabilities, nor do we expect the impact of COVID-19 to cause us to be unable to comply with our debt covenants or meet our contractual obligations.

2. Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) Guidelines, Rules and Regulations and, in the opinion of management, reflect all normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of results for the unaudited interim periods presented. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been omitted. The results of operations for the interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results to be obtained for the full fiscal year. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated upon consolidation in the unaudited consolidated financial statements.

Revenue

Change Healthcare Inc.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(unaudited and amounts in thousands, except share and per share amounts)

Business Combinations

We recognize revenue at an amount that reflects the consideration transferred (i.e., purchase price)we expect to be entitled to in exchange for transferring goods or services to a business combination, as well ascustomer, in accordance with ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”). See Note 3, Revenue Recognition, for additional information.

Equity Compensation

We measure stock-based compensation cost based on the acquired business’ identifiable assets, liabilities and noncontrolling interests at their acquisition date fair value. The excess of the consideration transferred over theestimated fair value of the identifiable assets, liabilitiesaward on the grant date and noncontrolling interest,recognize the expense over the requisite service period, typically on a straight-line basis. We recognize stock-based compensation expense for awards with performance conditions if any,and when we conclude that it is recorded as goodwill. Any excess ofprobable that the performance conditions will be achieved. The fair value of equity awards is recognized as expense in the identifiable assets acquiredsame period and liabilities assumed overin the consideration transferred,same manner as if we had paid cash for the goods or services. Forfeitures are recognized as they occur. We issue new shares of common stock upon vesting of equity awards and upon exercise of vested options. We do not intend to repurchase any is generallyissued shares of common stock. During the three months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020 we recognized within earnings as$23,745 and $14,331 of equity compensation expense, respectively. During the six months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020 we recognized $49,911 and $23,914 of equity compensation expense, respectively. At September 30, 2021, aggregate unrecognized compensation expense related to outstanding awards was $233,469.

Upon closing of the acquisition date.

The fair valuesUHG Transaction, existing awards will generally convert to equivalent UHG awards with consistent vesting provisions. Certain awards will vest upon closing of the consideration transferred, assets, liabilities and noncontrolling interests are estimated based on one or a combination of income, cost or market approaches as determined based onUHG Transaction per the natureterms of the asset or liability and the level of inputs available (i.e., quoted prices in an active market, other observable inputs or unobservable inputs). To the extent our initial accounting for a business combination is incomplete at the end of a reporting period, provisional amounts are reported for those items which are incomplete.UHG Agreement.

In conjunction with business combinations, we generally recognize goodwill attributable to the assembled workforce and expected synergies among the operations of the acquired entities and our existing operations. Goodwill is generally deductible for federal income tax purposes when a business combination is treated as an asset purchase and is generally not deductible for federal income tax purposes when a business combination is treated as a stock purchase. See Note 4, Business Combinations.

Allowance for Credit Losses

We determine whether an arrangement contains a lease based on the conveyed rights and obligations at the inception date. If an agreement contains an operating or finance lease, at the commencement date, we record a right-of-use asset and a corresponding lease liability based on the present value of the minimum lease payments.


As most of our leases do not provide an implicit borrowing rate, to determine the present value of lease payments, we use the portfolio approach and determine our hypothetical secured borrowing rate based on information available at lease commencement. Further, we make certain estimates and judgements regarding the lease term and lease payments, noted below.

Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet and we recognize lease expense for these leases on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Most leases include one or more options to renew, with renewal terms that can extend the lease term from one month to one year or more. Additionally, some of our leases include an option for early termination. We include renewal periods and exclude termination periods from our lease term if, at commencement, we are reasonably certain to exercise the option.

Certain of our lease agreements include rental payments that are adjusted periodically for inflation or passage of time. These step payments are included within our present value calculation as they are known adjustments at commencement. Some of our lease agreements include variable payments that are excluded from our present value calculation. For example, some of our equipment leases include a component which varies based on the asset’s use.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(unaudited and amounts in thousands, except share and per share amounts)

Additionally, we have lease agreements that include lease and non-lease components, such as equipment leases, which are generally accounted for as a single lease component. For these leases, lease payments include all fixed payments stated within the contract. For other leases, such as office space, lease and non-lease components are accounted for separately. Our lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees that would impact our lease payments.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

Financial Instruments: Credit Losses

In April 2020, we adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-13, as amended by ASU No. 2018-19, which requires that a financial asset (or group of financial assets) measured at amortized cost be presented at the net amount expected to be collected based on relevant information about past events, including historical experience, current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts that affect the collectability of the reported amount. The guidance also requires us to pool assets with similar risk characteristics and consider current economic conditions when estimating losses. We adopted this standard using the modified retrospective approach and recorded a cumulative effect to retained earnings of $417 as of April 1, 2020.

Fair Value Measurements

In April 2020, we adopted FASB ASU No. 2018-13, which modifies the disclosure requirements for fair value measurements. Entities are no longer required to disclose the amount of and reasons for transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, but public companies are required to disclose the range and weighted-average of significant unobservable inputs used to develop Level 3 fair value measurements. See Note 10, Fair Value Measurements.

Hosting Arrangement Implementation Costs

In April 2020, we adopted FASB ASU No. 2018-15, which aligns the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred in a hosting arrangement that is a service contract with the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred to develop or obtain internal-use software. This update also requires that the effects of such capitalized costs be classified in the same respective caption in the statement of operations, balance sheet and cash flows as the underlying hosting arrangement. We adopted this standard prospectively beginning April 1, 2020. This adoption did not have a material impact on our financial statements for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2020.

Leases

In April 2020, we adopted FASB ASU No. 2016-02, which created Topic 842 – Leases (“ASC 842”). The standard generally requires that all lease obligations be recognized on the balance sheet at the present value of the remaining lease payments with a corresponding right-of-use asset. In July 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-11 which provides companies with the option to apply this cumulative effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings in the period of adoption.

Upon adoption, we elected the transition “practical expedients” permitting us not to reassess our prior conclusions about lease identification, lease classification and initial direct costs. Additionally, we elected the practical expedient to not separate lease and non-lease components for equipment lease agreements.

We adopted ASC 842 using the modified retrospective approach and recorded right-of-use assets of $111,815 and lease liabilities of $125,331, primarily related to operating leases. The recognition of the right-of-use assets in combination with our previously recorded prepaid rent balances resulted in no requirement to adjust the opening balance of retained earnings. Our accounting for finance leases remains substantially unchanged. Adoption of ASC 842 did not materially impact our consolidated statement of operations and had no impact on our consolidated statement of cash flows. See Note 8, Leases, for additional information.

London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) Reform

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-04, as amended by ASU No. 2021-01, which created Topic 848 – Reference Rate Reform. ASU No. 2020-04 contains optional practical expedients for reference rate reform related activities that impact debt, leases, derivatives and other contracts which may be elected over time as activities occur. Among other things, the ASU intends to ease the transition from LIBOR to an alternative reference rate. During the first quarter of fiscal year 2021, we elected to apply the hedge accounting expedients related to probability and the assessments of effectiveness for future LIBOR-indexed cash flows to assume that the index upon which future hedged transactions will be based matches the index on the corresponding derivatives. Application of these expedients preserves the presentation of derivatives consistent with past presentation. We continue to evaluate the impacts of ASU No. 2020-04 and may apply other elections as reference rate reform activities progress.

NoneDerivatives and Convertible Instruments

In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-06 which simplifies the accounting for convertible instruments and amends the guidance addressing the derivatives scope exception for contracts in an entity’s own equity. The standard is scheduled to be effective for us beginning April 1, 2022. Given the forward purchase contracts of our Tangible Equity Units (“TEUs”) qualify for the derivatives scope exception and are currently accounted for under that are expected to haveguidance, we do not expect a material impact on our financial statements.upon adoption. We will continue to evaluate the impact of this pronouncement prior to adoption.

3. Revenue Recognition

We generate most of our solutions revenue by using technology solutions (generally Software as a Service (“SaaS”)) to provide services to our customers that automate and simplify business and administrative functions for payers, providers, pharmacies, and channel partners and through the licensing of software, software systems (consisting of software, hardware and maintenance support) and content.

We recognize revenue when the customer obtains control of the good or service through satisfying a performance obligation by transferring the promised good or service to the customer.

Principal Revenue Generating Products and Services

Hosted solutions and SaaS—We enter into arrangements whereby we provide the customer access to a Company-owned software solution, which are generally marketed under annual and multi-year arrangements. The customer is only provided “access” (not a license) to the software application. In these arrangements, the customer does not purchase equipment nor does the customer take physical possession of the software. The related revenue is recognized ratably over the contracted term. For fixed fee arrangements, revenue recognition begins after set-up and implementation are complete. For per-transaction fee arrangements, revenue is recognized as transactions are processed beginning on the service start date. Revenue for hosted solutions and SaaS, which is included in solutions revenue, is generated by the Software and Analytics, Network Solutions, and Technology-Enabled Services segments.

Transaction processing services—We provide transaction processing (such as claims processing) services to hospitals, pharmacies and health systems via a cloud-based (SaaS) platform. The promised service is to stand ready to process transactions for our customers over the contractual period on an as needed basis. Revenue related to these services is recognized over time as transactions are processed and the revenue is recognized over the individual days in which the services are performed. Revenue is recognized as solutions revenue in the Software and Analytics, Network Solutions, and Technology-Enabled Services segments, with the exception of revenue related to postage that is generated through the delivery of certain of these services. Postage revenue is discussed below and is separately presented on the consolidated statement of operations. Any fixed annual fees and implementation fees are recognized ratably over the contract period.

Contingent fee services—We provide services to customers in which the transaction price is contingent on future occurrences, such as savings generated or amounts collected on behalf of our customers through the delivery of services. In some cases, we perform services in advance of invoicing the customer, thereby creating a contract asset. Revenue in these arrangements is estimated and constrained until we determine that it is probable a significant revenue reversal will not occur, and variable consideration is allocated to the performance obligation for which we earn a contingent fee. We use the expected value method when estimating variable consideration, as we have a large number of contracts with similar characteristics and consider a portfolio of data from other similar contracts to form our estimate of expected value. Revenue for contingent fee services, which is included in solutions revenue, is generated by the Software and Analytics and Technology-Enabled Services segments.

Content license subscriptions and time-based software—Our content license subscriptions and time-based software arrangements provide a license to use a software for a specified period of time. At the end of the contractual period, the customer either renews the license for an additional term or ceases to use the software. Software licenses are typically delivered to the customer with functionality that allows the customer to benefit from the software on its own or together with readily available resources. As contracts for these solutions generally do not price individual components separately, we allocate the transaction price to the license and ongoing support performance obligations based on standalone selling price, primarily determined by historical value relationships between licenses and ongoing support and updates. Revenue allocated to content license subscriptions and time-based software license agreements is generally recognized at the point-in-time of delivery of the license or the content update upon transfer of control of the underlying license to the customer. Generally, software implementation fees are recognized over the implementation period through an input measure of progress method. Revenue allocated to maintenance and support is recognized ratably over the period covered by the agreements, as passage of time represents a faithful depiction of the transfer of these services. In some cases, software arrangements provide licenses to several software applications that are highly integrated with the implementation services and software updates and cannot function separately. The bundle is a single performance obligation since the individually promised goods and services are not distinct in the context of the contract because the related implementation services significantly modify and customize the software and the updates provided to the integrated software solution are critical to the software’s utility. The related revenue is recognized on a straight-line basis, ratably over the contractual term due to the frequency and criticality of the updates throughout the license period. Revenue for content license subscriptions and time-based software, which is included in solutions revenue, is generated by the Software and Analytics segment.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(unaudited and amounts in thousands, except share and per share amounts)

Perpetual software licenses—Our perpetual software arrangements provide a license for a customer to use software in perpetuity. Software licenses are typically delivered to the customer with functionality from which the customer can benefit from the license on its own or together with readily available resources. Perpetual software arrangements are recognized at the time of delivery or through an input measure of progress method over the installation period if the arrangements require significant production or modification or customization of the software. Contracts accounted for through an input measure of progress method are generally measured based on the ratio of labor hours incurred to date to total estimated labor hours to be incurred. Software implementation fees are recognized as the work is performed or under the input method for perpetual software. Hardware revenue is generally recognized upon delivery. Maintenance is recognized ratably over the term of the agreement as passage of time represents a faithful depiction of the transfer of these services. License, implementation, hardware and maintenance revenue for these arrangements, which is included in solutions revenue, is generated by the Software and Analytics and Network Solutions segments.

Professional services—We provide training and consulting services to our customers, and the services may be fixed fee or time and materials based. Consulting services that fall outside of the standard implementation services vary depending on the scope and complexity of the service requested by the customer. Consulting services are deemed to be capable of being distinct from other products and services, and the services are satisfied either at a point of time or over time based on delivery and are recognized as solutions revenue in the Software and Analytics and Technology-Enabled Services segments. Training services are usually provided as an optional service to enhance the customer’s experience with a software product or provides additional education surrounding the general topic of the solution. Training services are capable of being distinct from other products and services. We treat training services as a distinct performance obligation, and those services are satisfied at a point of time and recognized as solutions revenue in the Software and Analytics and Technology-Enabled Services segments.

Postage Revenue

Postage revenue is the result of providing delivery services to customers in our payment and communication solutions. Postage revenue is generally billed as a pass-through cost to our customers. The service is part of a combined performance obligation with the printing and handling services provided to the customer because the postage services are not distinct within the context of the contract. We present Postage Revenue separately from Solutions Revenue on the consolidated statements of operations as doing so makes the financial statements more informative for the users. The revenue related to the combined performance obligation of the postage, printing, and handling service is recognized as the transactions are processed, and the revenue is recognized over the individual days in which the services are performed.

Contract Balances

We generally recognize a contract asset when revenue is recognized in advance of invoicing on a customer contract, unless the right to payment for that revenue is unconditional (i.e. requiring no further performance and only the passage of time). If a right to payment is determined to meet the criteria to be considered ‘unconditional’, then we will recognize a receivable.

We did not recognize any impairment loss on accounts receivable or contract assets during the three and nine months ended December 31, 2020. Change Healthcare Inc. did not have accounts receivable prior to the Merger.

We record deferred revenue when billings or payments are received from customers in advance of our performance. Deferred revenue is generally recognized when transfer of control to customers occurs. The deferred revenue balance is driven by multiple factors, including the frequency of renewals, invoice timing, invoice duration and fair value adjustments as a result of the Merger. As of December 31, 2020,September 30, 2021, we expect 94% of the deferred revenue balance to be recognized in one year or less, and approximately $245,760less. Approximately $273,517 of the balance at the beginning period balanceof fiscal year 2022 was recognized during the ninesix months ended December 31, 2020.

Costs to Obtain or Fulfill a Contract

At December 31, 2020, we had capitalized costs to obtain a contractSeptember 30, 2021. Approximately $202,837 of $4,339 in prepaid and other current assets and $27,502 in other noncurrent assets. At December 31, 2020, we had capitalized costs to fulfill a contractthe balance at the beginning of $3,287 in prepaid and other current assets and $18,072 in other noncurrent assets. Amortization of such capitalized costs to obtain or fulfill a contract were immaterial forfiscal year 2021 was recognized during the three and ninesix months ended December 31,September 30, 2020. Change Healthcare Inc. did not have costs to obtain or fulfill a contract prior to the Merger, and therefore did not record amortization of such capitalized costs during the three and nine months ended December 31, 2019.

Remaining Performance Obligations

The aggregate amount of transaction price allocated to performance obligations that are unsatisfied (or partially unsatisfied) for executed contracts includes deferred revenue and other revenue yet to be recognized from non-cancellable contracts. As of December 31, 2020, the totalSeptember 30, 2021, remaining performance obligations approximated $1,507,154,totaled $1,380,210, of which approximately 49%51% is expected to be recognized over the next twelve12 months, and the remaining 51% thereafter.

49% thereafter.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(unaudited and amounts in thousands, except share and per share amounts)

In this balance, we do not include the value of unsatisfied performance obligations related to those contracts for which we recognize revenue at the amount for which we have the right to invoice for services performed. Additionally, this balance does not include revenue related to performance obligations that are part of a contract with an original expected duration of one year or less. Lastly, this balance does not include variable consideration allocated to the individual goods or services in a series of distinct goods or services that are substantially the same and that have the same pattern of transfer to the customer. Examples includes variable fees associated with transaction processing and contingent fee services.

Disaggregated Revenue

We disaggregate the revenue from contracts with customers by operating segment as we believe doing so best depicts how the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenues are affected by economic factors. See Note 19,16, Segment Reporting, for the total revenue disaggregated by operating segment for the three and ninesix months ended December 31,September 30, 2021 and 2020.

In addition to disaggregating revenue by operating segment, we disaggregate revenue between revenue that is recognized over time and revenue that is recognized at a point in time. ApproximatelyFor the three and six months ended September 30, 2021, 98% and 96% of revenue was recognized over time, respectively, and approximately 2% and 4% of revenue was recognized at a point in time, forrespectively. For the three and ninesix months ended December 31,September 30, 2020, 97% and 94% of revenue was recognized over time, respectively, and 3% and 6% of revenue was recognized at a point in time, respectively.

Fiscal Year 2021 Transactions

eRx Network Holdings, Inc.

On May 1, 2020, we exercised our option to purchase and completed the acquisition of 100% of the ownership interest in eRx Network Holdings, Inc. (“eRx”), a leading provider in comprehensive, innovative and secure data-driven solutions for pharmacies. At the time of the acquisition, all outstanding eRx equity awards were canceled and holders of eRx stock options and vested eRx stock appreciation rights were able to elect to receive consideration in the form of a cash payment or vested stock appreciation rights of the Company. See Note 17, Incentive Compensation Plans, for additional information.

Prior to the acquisition, we held an option to purchase eRx which we accounted for as an equity investment. Therefore, our acquisition of eRx was accounted for as a business combination achieved in stages under the acquisition method in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification 805, Business Combinations (“ASC 805”). Accordingly, at the acquisition, we remeasured our business purchase option to fair value and recognized a loss of $6,000 which is recorded in Other, net on our consolidated statement of operations.operations for the six months ended September 30, 2020.

The following table summarizes information related to this acquisition as of the acquisition date. The fair values of the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed were determined based on information available to the Company using primarily an income-based approach. During the second and third quarters of fiscal year 2021, we continued to make purchase price allocation adjustments to refine the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed, including goodwill. These refinements primarily included an increase to the determined fair value of customer relationships and deferred tax liabilities and a decrease to the determined fair value of technology-based intangible assets. There were no material impacts to the consolidated statement of operations as a result of the adjustments. We consider our accounting for the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the eRx acquisition to be complete.

PDX, Inc.

On June 1, 2020, we completed the cash purchase of 100% of the ownership interest in PDX, Inc. (“PDX”), a company focused on delivering patient centricpatient-centric and innovative technologies for pharmacies and health systems. We accounted for this transaction as a business combination using the acquisition method.

The fair values of the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed were determined based on information available to the Company using primarily an income-based approach. During the second quarter of fiscal year 2021, we continued to make purchase price allocation adjustments to refine the fair value of assets acquired, including goodwill. These refinements primarily included an increase to the determined fair value of customer relationships and decreases to the determined fair values of technology-based intangible assets and deferred revenue. There were no material impacts to the consolidated statement of operations as a result of the adjustments. Additional information is being gathered to finalize the amounts with respect to deferred taxes. Accordingly, the measurement of the deferred tax assets acquired and deferred tax liabilities assumed may change upon finalization of the Company’s valuations and completion of the purchase price allocation, both of which are expected to occur no later than one year from the acquisition date. We consider our accounting for the other assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the PDX acquisition to be complete.

Nucleus.io

In August 2020, we completed the acquisition of Nucleus.io, a leader in the development of advanced, fully enabled, cloud-native imaging and workflow technology. We acquired Nucleus.io for total consideration of $35,120 and accounted for the acquisition as a business combination. The consideration transferred was primarily allocated to technology-based intangible assets of $11,700 and goodwill of $22,341. The goodwill recognized is assigned to the Software and Analytics segment. The preliminary values of the consideration transferred, assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the acquisition, including the related tax effects, are subject to change upon receipt of a final valuation and working capital settlement.

Fiscal Year 2020 Transactions

The Merger

On March 10, 2020, the Company combined with SpinCo in a two-step all-stock “Reverse Morris Trust” transaction that involved a separation of SpinCo from McKesson followed by the merger of SpinCo with and into the Company, with the Company as the surviving company. As a result of the Merger, the Joint Venture became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company.

McKesson accepted 15,426,537 shares of its own common stock, par value $0.01 in exchange for all 175,995,192 issued and outstanding shares of SpinCo common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “SpinCo Common Stock”). All shares of SpinCo Common Stock were then converted into an equal number of shares of common stock of the Company, par value $0.001, which the Company issued to the former holders of SpinCo Common Stock, together with cash in lieu of any fractional shares.

Prior to the Merger, we accounted for our investment in the Joint Venture under the equity method of accounting. Therefore, the acquisition of control of the Joint Venture was accounted for as a business combination achieved in stages under the acquisition method in accordance with ASC 805. Accordingly, we remeasured our previously held equity interest in the Joint Venture to fair value by reference to the publicly traded price of the common shares issued to SpinCo shareholders in exchange for the remaining 58% equity interest in the Joint Venture. Upon remeasurement, we recognized a loss on investment of $230,229. The loss represents the amount by which the carrying value of our investment in the Joint Venture exceeded the fair value of our 42% interest immediately prior to the Merger.

The fair values of the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed were determined based on information available to the Company. Additional information is being gathered to finalize the provisional measurements with respect to deferred taxes. Accordingly, the measurement of the deferred tax assets acquired and deferred tax liabilities assumed may change upon finalization of the Company’s valuations and completion of the purchase price allocation, both of which are expected to occur no later than one year from the acquisition date. During the first quarter of fiscal year 2021, we increased the estimated fair value of our deferred tax liability by $1,604 which also impacted goodwill. During the third quarter of fiscal year 2021, we made additional adjustments decreasing our deferred tax liability and goodwill by $4,692. There were no impacts to the consolidated statement of operations as a result of the adjustments. We consider our accounting for the other assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the Merger to be complete.

9.8. Interest Rate Cap Agreements

Risk Management Objective of Using Derivatives

We are exposed to certain risks arising from both our business operations and economic conditions. We principally manage exposures to a wide variety of business and operational risks through management of core business activities. We manage economic

13


risks, including interest rate, liquidity and credit risk, primarily by managing the amount, sources and duration of debt funding and the use of derivative financial instruments. Specifically, we enter into derivative financial instrumentsinstrument contracts to manage differences in the amount, timing and duration of known or expected cash receipts and known or expected cash payments principally related to existing borrowings.

Cash Flow Hedges of Interest Rate Risk

Our objectives in using interest rate derivatives are to add stability to interest expense and to manage exposure to interest rate movements. To accomplish these objectives, we primarily use interest rate cap agreements as part of our interest rate risk management strategy. Payments and receipts related to interest rate cap agreements are included in cash flows from financing activities in the consolidated statements of cash flows.

In August 2018, the Joint Venture executed annuitized interest rate cap agreements with notional amounts of $500,000, accreting to $1,500,000 to limit the exposure of the variable component of interest rates under the Term Loan Facility or future variable rate indebtedness to a maximum of 1.0%. The interest rate cap agreements became effective August 31, 2018, accreted to $1,500,000 in March 2020 and expire December 31, 2021. Upon completion of the Merger, these agreements were redesignated as cash flow hedges of the Company.

In March 2020, we executed additional annuitized interest rate cap agreements with notional amounts totaling $1,000,000 to limit the exposure of the variable component of the interest rates under the Term Loan Facility or future variable rate indebtedness to a maximum of 1.0%. Each interest rate cap agreement became effective March 31, 2020 and expires March 31, 2024.

At December 31, 2020,September 30, 2021, each of our outstanding interest rate cap agreements were designated as cash flow hedges of interest rate risk and were determined to be highly effective.

Amounts reported in accumulated other comprehensive income related to derivatives will be reclassified to interest expense as interest payments are made on our variable-rate debt. We estimate that $2,005 $2,007will be reclassified as an increase to interest expense within one year.

Credit Risk-Related Contingent Features

We have agreements with each of our derivative counterparties providing that if we default on any of our indebtedness, including a default where repayment of the indebtedness has not been accelerated by the lender, then we also could be declared in default on our derivative obligations.

As of December 31, 2020,September 30, 2021, the termination value of derivative financial instruments in a net liability position, which includes accrued interest but excludes any adjustment for nonperformance risk, was $32,953.$8,857. If we had breacheddefaulted on any of these provisionsour indebtedness at December 31, 2020,September 30, 2021, we could have been required to settle our obligations under the agreements at this termination value. We do not offset any derivative financial instruments and the derivative financial instruments are not subject to collateral posting requirements.

Derivative Financial Instruments

The valuation of our derivative financial instruments is determined using widely accepted valuation techniques, including a discounted cash flow analysis on the expected cash flows of each derivative. This analysis reflects the contractual terms of the derivative, including the period to maturity, and uses observable market-based inputs, including interest rate curves.curves and implied volatilities. The fair value of the interest rate cap agreements is determined using the market standard methodology of nettingdiscounting the discounted future fixed cash payments (or receipts) and the discounted expected variable cash receipts (or payments) usingthat would occur if variable interest rates rise above the overnight index swapstrike rate asof the discount rate.caps. The variable interest rates used in the calculation of projected receipts on the cap are based on an expectation of future interest rates derived from observable market interest rate curves and volatilities.

We incorporate credit valuation adjustments to appropriately reflect both our own nonperformance risk and the respective counterparty’s nonperformance risk in the fair value measurements. In adjusting the fair value of our derivative contracts for the effect of nonperformance risk, we consideredconsider the impact of netting and any applicable credit enhancements and measuredenhancements. We measure the credit risk of our derivative financial instruments that are subject to master netting agreements on a net basis by counterparty portfolio.

Although we have determined that the majority of the inputs used to value our derivatives fall within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, the credit valuation adjustments utilize Level 3 inputs to evaluate the likelihood of both our own default and counterparty default. As of December 31, 2020,September 30, 2021, we determined that the credit valuation adjustments are not significant to the overall valuation of our derivatives and therefore, the derivatives. As a result, the derivative valuations are classified in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

Contingent Consideration

Prior to December 31, 2020, the valuation of our contingent consideration obligationsobligation was determined using a discounted cash flow method that involved a Monte Carlo simulation. This analysis reflects the contractual terms of the purchase agreements (i.e., minimum and maximum payments, length of earn-out periods, manner of calculating amounts due, etc.) and utilizes assumptions with regard to future cash flows that were determined using a Monte Carlo simulation which were then discounted to present value using an appropriate discount rate. Significant increases with respect to assumptions as toin future revenue assumptions would have resulted in a higher fair value measurement while an increase in the discount rate would have resulted in a lower fair value measurement. The measurement period ended December 31, 2020 and the Company determinedat which point no obligations remained. As such,remained and the contingent consideration liability was reduced to zero as of December 31, 2020.0.

11. Long-Term Debt

Our long-term indebtedness10. Tangible Equity Units

In July 2019, we completed our offering of 5,750,000 TEUs. Total proceeds, net of underwriting discounts, were $278,875. Each TEU, which has a stated amount of $50, is comprised of a stock purchase contract and a senior secured term loan facility (the “Term Loan Facility”), a revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Facility”; together with the Term Loan Facility, the “Senior Credit Facilities”), and 5.75% senior notesamortizing note due 2025 (the “Senior Notes”).

Long-term debt as of December 31, 2020 and March 31, 2020, consistedJune 30, 2022. Unless settled earlier, each purchase contract will automatically settle on June 30, 2022. Holders of the following:purchase contracts may elect to early settle prior to June 30, 2022, at the minimum settlement rate of 3.2051 shares of common stock per purchase contract, resulting in the holder receiving the minimum number of shares for that purchase contract.

In the event of certain types of changes in control (including the consummation of the UHG Transaction) or other specified Reorganization Events (as defined in the TEU agreements), each outstanding purchase contract will convert to a contract entitling the holder to receive cash or other assets that holders of the Company’s common stock are entitled to receive in the Reorganization Event. The amount of cash or other assets each holder is entitled to following a Reorganization Event is based on the Applicable Market Value and the corresponding settlement rate in effect at the time.

13.11. Tax Receivable Agreements

Upon the consummationAs of the Merger, we assumed obligations related to certain tax receivable agreements (collectively, the “tax receivable agreements”) entered into by the Joint Venture with its current and former owners. Depending on whether the respective tax receivable agreements were assumed as part of the Merger or became effective after the Merger, the liabilities related to the tax receivable agreements are subject to differing accounting models as explained below.

Under the tax receivable agreements assumed in connection with the Merger, we are obligated to make payments to certain former stockholders as well as to affiliates of The Blackstone Group, Inc., some of whom are considered related parties. The cash payments made are equal to 85% of the applicable cash savings realized or expected to be realized for the applicable tax receivable agreements. The tax receivable agreements were measured at their fair value as part of the Merger and are recognized at their initial fair value plus recognized accretion to date on the consolidated balance sheet. Accretion recorded during the period pertaining to related party payments is recorded separately to Accretion and changes in estimate with related parties, net, whereas non-related party accretion is recorded within Sales, marketing, general and administrative in the consolidated statement of operations. As the payments are due to both current and former owners, we have separately presented the estimated aggregated payments due to related parties in future fiscal years in the table below.

McKesson Tax Receivable Agreement

In connection with the closing of the Merger, we along with the Joint Venture, the subsidiaries of McKesson that served as members of the Joint Venture (“McK Members”), and McKesson entered into a tax receivable agreement (the “McKesson Tax Receivable Agreement”). The McKesson Tax Receivable Agreement generally requires payment to affiliates of McKesson of 85% of certain cash tax savings realized (or, in certain circumstances, deemed to be realized) in periods ending on or after the date on which McKesson ceases to own at least 20% of the Joint Venture as a result of (i) certain amortizable tax basis in assets transferred to the Joint Venture at the Contribution Agreement Closing and (ii) imputed interest deductions and certain other tax attributes arising from payments under the McKesson Tax Receivable Agreement. Following the McKesson exit and based on anticipated amortization allocations, we recorded an obligation for the McKesson Tax Receivable estimated payments, which represents a loss contingency under ASC 450 and is included in the other long-term liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet. Future changes in this value will be reflected within pretax income or loss.

Based on facts and circumstances at December 31, 2020,September 30, 2021, we estimate the aggregate payments due under our tax receivable agreements in future fiscal years to be as follows:

14. Legal Proceedings

We are subject to various claims with customers and vendors, pending and potential legal actions for damages, investigations relating to governmental laws and regulators and other matters arising out of the normal conduct of its business.

UHG Transaction Proceedings

Following the announcement of the UHG Transaction, nine lawsuits challenging the UHG Transaction were filed in various jurisdictions. The first lawsuit, a putative class action alleging breaches of fiduciary duty, was filed in Tennessee Chancery Court, and was voluntarily dismissed without prejudice on March 17, 2021. The remaining eight lawsuits were filed in federal court between March 18, 2021 and April 7, 2021. The operative complaints in those actions named us and our business.Board of Directors as defendants and alleged, among other things, that the proxy statement filed in conjunction with the UHG Transaction was materially incomplete and misleading in violation of Sections 14(a) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Rule 14a-9 promulgated thereunder (“Section 14(a) Actions”). All of the Section 14(a) Actions were dismissed without prejudice by April 23, 2021.

We also received written demands from purported stockholders relating to the UHG Transaction. One of the stockholders who made a written demand subsequently filed a complaint against us in the Delaware Court of Chancery on April 13, 2021 pursuant to 8. Del. C. § 220, seeking certain books and records relating to the UHG Transaction. That action, which is captioned Waterford Township Policy & Fire Retirement System v. Change Healthcare, Inc., 2021-0317, remains pending and the parties have agreed to stay our deadline to respond to the operative pleading.

Government Subpoenas and Investigations

From time to time, we may receive subpoenas or requests for information from various government agencies. We generally respond to such subpoenas and requests in a cooperative, thorough and timely manner. These responses sometimes require time and effort and can result in incurring considerable costs. Such subpoenas and requests also can lead to the assertion of claims or the commencement of civil or criminal proceedings against us and other members of the health care industry, as well as to settlements.

Other Matters

In the ordinary course of business, we are involved in various other claims and legal proceedings. While the ultimate resolution of these matters has yet to be determined, we do not believe that it is reasonably possible that their outcomes will have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations, or liquidity.

16. Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss)

15. Related Party Transactions

Term Loans Held by Related Party

Affiliates of The Blackstone Group, L.P. (“Blackstone”) were significant stockholders at our inception and continue to hold a material interest in the Company. Certain investment funds managed by GSO Capital Partners LP (the “GSO-managed funds”) held a portion of the term loans under our Senior Credit Facilities. GSO Advisor Holdings LLC (“GSO Advisor”) is the general partner of GSO Capital Partners LP and Blackstone, indirectly through its subsidiaries, holds all of the issued and outstanding equity interests of GSO Advisor. As of September 30, 2021 and March 31, 2021, the GSO-managed funds held $286,096 and $162,189, respectively, in principal amount of the Senior Credit Facilities (none of which is classified within current portion of long-term debt).

Transactions with Blackstone Portfolio Companies

We provide various services to, and purchase services from, certain Blackstone portfolio companies under contracts that were executed in the normal course of business. The following is a summary of the accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) activity for the nine months ended December 31, 2020 and 2019. Prior to the Merger, the activity in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) reflects the proportionate share of the Joint Venture’s accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), net of taxes.

Performance Stock Units (“PSUs”) – We granted 1,177,152 PSUs during the three and nine months ended December 31, 2020. The PSUs consist of two tranches, one for which vesting varies based on the Company’s compounded annual revenue growth rate over a three year period in comparison to a target percentage and one for which vesting varies based on the Company’s compounded annual Adjusted EBITDA growth rate over a three year period in comparison to a target percentage. The awards earned upon satisfaction of the performance conditions become vested on the third anniversary of the vesting commencement date of the award. The Company recognizes compensation expense for the PSUs based on the number of awards that are considered probable to vest. Recognition of expense is based on the probability of achievement of performance targets and is periodically reevaluated.

We recognized compensation expense related to these awards granted during the three and nine months ended December 31, 2020 of $5,518 and $10,971, respectively. At December 31, 2020, aggregate unrecognized compensation expense related to these awards was $73,859.

eRx Awards

Upon completion of the eRx acquisition all outstanding eRx equity awards were canceled. Holders of eRx stock options and vested eRx stock appreciation rights were able to elect to receive consideration in the form of a cash payment or vested stock appreciation rights of the Company. For those individuals with unvested eRx equity awards, we elected to issue replacement awards with vesting and exercisability terms generally identical to the existing eRx awards which were replaced. These replacement awards granted under the Omnibus Incentive Plan consisted of unvested restricted share units (“eRx RSUs”) and unvested stock appreciation rights (“eRx SARs”) with terms identical to the original eRx awards. The awards vest subject to the employee’s continued employment through the date when Blackstone has sold at least 25% of the maximum number of shares held by it (i.e., a liquidity event) and achieved specified rates of return that vary by award. Upon vesting, we are required to pay cash in settlement of such eRx awards based on their fair value at the date of such vesting. During the three and nine months ended December 31, 2020, we recognized compensation expense related to eRx awards granted under the Omnibus Incentive Plan of $208 and $1,675, respectively. At December 31, 2020, aggregate unrecognized compensation expense related to these awards was $1,185.

Key Components of Our Results of Operations

Prior to the Merger described below, the Company had minimal operations outside of the investment in the Joint Venture, and the Company’s standalone operating results were not utilized by management to make operating decisions, assess performance, or allocate resources. As such, the prior period did not include meaningful operating results and only a single reportable segment for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2019.

Qualified McKesson Exit

Prior to the Merger, we accounted for our investment in the Joint Venture using the equity method of accounting. Subsequent to the Merger, we own 100% of the Joint Venture and consolidate its results of operations. As a result, our consolidated results in periods prior to the Merger are not comparable to our results following the Merger.

Change Healthcare Inc.We accounted for the Merger as a business combination achieved in stages in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 805, Business Combinations(“ASC 805”).

As a result of the accounting for these transactionsthis transaction and the change in basis of accounting, our consolidated results in periods following the Merger are not comparablereflect fair value adjustments to the consolidated results of the Joint Venture in periods prior to the Merger. The following are certain of the more significant changes resulting from the Merger that affect the comparability of financial resultsvarious assets and operations:

Increased tangibleliabilities, including deferred revenue, goodwill, and intangible assets resulting from adjusting the basis of the assets to their fair value, which also results in increased depreciation and amortization expense.

Decrease in long-term debt as a result of adjustments to state the long-term debt at its fair value.

Decreased deferred revenue as a result of recognizing deferred revenue only to the extent that contractual obligations remain to be fulfilled. These decreases result in decreased solutions revenue.

assets.

Income previously attributable to the Joint Venture and not subject to U.S. federal income taxes and most state and local income taxes is now subject to such taxes, resulting in an increase in Change Healthcare Inc.’s effective tax rate compared with the historical effective tax rate of the Joint Venture.

Segments

We report our financial results in the following three reportable segments: Software and Analytics, Network Solutions and Technology-Enabled Services.

The Software and Analytics segment provides solutions for revenue cycle management, provider network management,

payment accuracy, value-based payments, clinical decision support, consumer engagement, risk adjustment and quality performance, and imaging and clinical workflow.

The Network Solutions segment provides solutions for financial, administrative, clinical and pharmacy transactions, electronic payments and aggregation and analytics of clinical and financial data.

The Technology-Enabled Services segment provides solutions for financial and administrative management, value-based care, communication and payment, pharmacy benefits administration and healthcare consulting.

During the first quarter of fiscal year 2021, management decided to allocate all administrative and certain other corporate expenses to the respective reportable segments. Prior to the Merger, the Company had minimal operations outside of the investment in the Joint Venture, and the Company’s standalone operating results were not utilized by management to make operating decisions, assess performance, or allocate resources. As such, the Company reported its results as a single reportable segment for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2019. For reference, the financial results of the Joint Venture’s reportable segments for fiscal years 2019 and 2020 have been recast to reflect the allocation of administrative and corporate expenses described above and are included in Exhibit 99.1.

Factors Affecting Results of Operations

The following are certain key factors that affect, will affect, or have recently affected, our results of operations:

Macroeconomic and Industry Trends

TheWhile conditions have improved since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, the spread of COVID-19 both globally and in the U.S., has driven lower healthcare utilization as a result of the significant reduction in, or in some cases temporary elimination of, elective medical procedures and healthcare visits, without a corresponding increase in COVID-19 related transactions. A portion of our business is tied to overall volume of activity in the healthcare system, and therefore, we have been adversely impacted by this industry trend. Further, weakened economic conditions or a recession could reduce the amounts patients are willing or able to spend on healthcare services. As a result, patients may elect to delay or forgo seeking healthcare services. Additionally, higher unemployment rates comparedcontinue to be higher than prior to the prior fiscal year are likely to causeonset of the COVID-19 pandemic, which has caused commercial payer membership to decline and continuecontinues to impact healthcare utilization and transaction volumes.

In response to COVID-19, we initiated a number of actions with our employees’ health being our first priority. We also focused on serving our customers and introducing new products and services to address their previously unexpected but now urgent needs related to COVID-19. To ensure our business continuity While the availability of approved COVID-19 vaccines and their impact on the safety and welfare of our team members, we moved the majority of our employees to work from home, shifted to a virtual meeting environment, suspended all non-critical business travel, and expanded telehealth and COVID-19 related paid time off coverage to all employees. We also completed a comprehensive review of our cost structure to balance costs with interim variability in our revenue and have actively aligned our staffing level, primarily in our Technology-Enabled Services segment to address lower interim volume. Starting in March 2020, we initiated hiring freezes, began contractor reductions and made other staffing reductions, primarily in the form of furloughs to provide us with greater flexibility to scale back up as volumes recover. We have also evaluated our real estate portfolio, closing or right-sizing certain office locations as we plan for an increased number of our employees to continue to work from home. These actions somewhat offset the negative impacts of COVID-19 described above in the first nine months of fiscal year 2021, and we expect to continue to see the impact of these actions throughout the remainder of the fiscal year.

While lower healthcare utilization will impact our results negatively this year,economy has been encouraging, we cannot predict the length of time it may take for normal healthcare volumes to return and the extent to which our business, results of operations, financial condition or liquidity will ultimately be impacted by COVID-19. However, we continue to assess its impact on our business and are actively managing our response as the pandemic evolves. We believe the solutions we provide our customers will be as important, if not more, post-COVID-19.

Acquisitions and Divestitures

Prior to entering into the UHG Agreement, we actively evaluated opportunities to improve and expand our business through targeted acquisitions that are consistent with our strategy. WhileAs the UHG Agreement does not prohibit us from engaging in allplaces certain restrictions on the types of acquisitions we can engage in without UnitedHealth Group’s consent, we anticipate such activity to be more limited prior to the expected closing of the transaction.UHG Transaction. On occasion, and consistent withsubject to the restrictions set forth in the UHG Agreement, we may also dispose of certain components of our business that no longer fit within our overall strategy. Because of the acquisition and divestiture activity as well as the shifting revenue mix of our business due to this activity, our results of operations may not be directly comparable among periods. See Note 4, Business Combinations, and Note 5, Dispositions, for details of recent activity.

Software and Analytics

Software and Analytics revenue increased $37.3 million for the six months ended September 30, 2021, compared with the same period in the prior year. Software and Analytics revenue was positively impacted by volume recovery from COVID-19 related volume declines in the prior period as well as organic revenue growth, which was partially offset by the Connected Analytics and Capacity Management divestitures which had a combined revenue impact of $21.3 million.

Software and Analytics adjusted EBITDA increased $11.4 million for the six months ended September 30, 2021, compared with the same period in the prior year. This increase in adjusted EBITDA reflects the aforementioned revenue growth partially offset by the impact of the divestitures.

Network Solutions adjusted EBITDA increased $57.5 million for the six months ended September 30, 2021, compared with the same period in the prior year. Network Solutions adjusted EBITDA was impacted by the same factors that impacted revenue, partially offset by investments to support new product launches and market expansion opportunities primarily in the core network and business to business payments offerings.

Technology-Enabled Services

Technology-Enabled Services revenue increased $38.0 million for the six months ended September 30, 2021 as compared with the same period in the prior year.

Significant Changes in Assets and Liabilities

DuringIn addition to the $100 million repayment on our Term Loan Facility made during the first ninesix months of fiscal year 2021,2022, we completed a debt offering of $325.0 million, repaid $250.0 million that was outstanding on our Revolving Facility, and repaid $265.0 million on our Term Loan Facility. Further, we adopted ASC 842, establishing operating lease right-of-use assets and operating liabilities. As a result of the eRx acquisition, our investment in business purchase option was eliminated and we recognized the assets and liabilities of the acquired eRx and PDX businesses at fair value. Finally, goodwill increased primarily as a result of the acquisitions of eRx and PDX, partially offset by the dispositions of Connected Analytics and Capacity Management.

Withinregularly receive funds within our Network Solutions segment we regularly receive funds from certain pharmaceutical industry participants in advance of itsour obligation to remit these funds to participating retail pharmacies.  Such funds are not restricted; however, these funds are generally paid out in satisfaction of the processing obligations within three business days of their receipt.  At the time of receipt, we record a corresponding liability within accrued expenses on our consolidated balance sheets.  At December 31, 2020,September 30, 2021, we reported $19.0$20.7 million of such pass-through payment obligations which were subsequently paid in the first week of JanuaryOctober 2021. At March 31, 2020,2021, we reported $29.1$16.2 million of such pass-through payment obligations.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Overview

Our principal sources of liquidity are cash flows provided by operating activities, cash and cash equivalents on hand, and our Revolving Facility. Our principal uses of liquidity are working capital, capital expenditures, debt service, business acquisitions and other general corporate purposes. Pursuant to the UHG Agreement, with UnitedHealth Group, however, there are limitations on how we conduct our business during the period from the signing of the UHG Agreement through the close of the transaction, including limitations on our ability to, among other things, engage in certain acquisitions or incur indebtedness or issue or sell new debt securities.indebtedness. We anticipate our cash on hand, cash generated from operations, and funds available under the Revolving Facility will be sufficient to fund our planned capital expenditures, debt service obligations, permitted business acquisitions and operating needs. Further, we may be required to make additional principal payments on the Term Loan Facility based on excess cash flows of the prior year, as defined in the credit agreement governing the Term Loan Facility.

Cash and cash equivalents totaled $137.4$80.4 million and $410.4$113.1 million at December 31, 2020September 30, 2021 and March 31, 2020,2021, respectively, of which $15.1$17.1 million and $22.2$27.7 million was held outside the U.S., respectively. As of December 31, 2020,September 30, 2021, no amounts had been drawn under the Revolving Facility and $6.2$6.1 million had been issued in letters of credit against the Revolving Facility, leaving $778.8$778.9 million available for borrowing. We also have the ability to borrow up to an additional $1,105.1$1,736.7 million, or such amount that the senior secured net leverage ratio does not exceed 4.9 to 1.0, whichever is greater, under the Term Loan Facility, subject to certain additional conditions including the UHG Agreement and commitments by existing or new lenders to fund any additional borrowings.

Senior Credit Facilities and Senior Notes

In March 2017, the Joint Venture entered into a $5,100.0 million term loan facility (the “TermTerm Loan Facility”),Facility and a $500.0 million revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Facility”, together with the Term Loan Facility, the “Senior Credit Facilities”).Revolving Facility. Additionally, the Joint Venture issued Senior Notes totaling $1,000.0 million of 5.75% senior notes due 2025 (the “Senior Notes”).

million. In July 2019, the Joint Venture amended the Revolving Facility, the primary effects of which were to increase the maximum amount that can be borrowed from $500.0 million to $785.0 million and to extend the maturity date until July 2024. In the event the outstanding balance under the Term Loan Facility exceeds $1,100.0 million on December 1, 2023, amounts due, if any, under the Revolving Facility become due and payable on December 1, 2023.

On April 21, 2020, we issued $325.0 million aggregate principal amount of 5.75% Senior Notes due 2025 (the “Notes”). The Senior Notes were issued as part of the same series as the $1,000.0 million Senior Notes issued in February 2017.

In September 2020,second quarter of fiscal year 2022, we repaid $50.0 million on our Term Loan Facility and recognized a loss on extinguishment of $1.5 million. In October 2020, we repaid an additional $75.0$100 million on our Term Loan Facility and recognized a loss on extinguishment of $2.2 million. In November 2020, we repaid an additional $100.0 million on our Term Loan Facility and recognized a loss on extinguishment of $2.8 million. In December 2020, we repaid an additional $40.0 million on our Term Loan Facility and recognized a loss on extinguishment of $1.1 million.

Tangible Equity Units

In connection with our initial public offering in July 2019, we completed an offering of 5,750,000 TEUs. Each TEU, which has a stated amount of $50.00, is comprised of a stock purchase contract and a senior amortizing note due June 30, 2022. Each senior amortizing note has an initial principal amount of $8.2378 and bears interest at 5.5% per year. On eachEach year on March 30, June 30, September 30 and December 30, we pay equal quarterly cash installments of $0.7500 per amortizing note with an aggregate principal

amount of $47.4 million. Each installment constitutes a payment of interest and partial payment of principal. Unless settled earlier, each purchase contract will automatically settle on June 30, 2022. Holders of TEUs may elect to early settle prior to June 30, 2022, in which case each purchase contract converts to 3.2051 shares of common stock. 779,325 TEUs were converted during the six months ended September 30, 2021.

LIBOR Transition

LIBOR is a commonly used indicative measure of the average interest rate at which major global banks could borrow from one another. In July 2017,On March 5, 2021, the Financial Conduct Authority (the “FCA”(“FCA”) (the authority that governs LIBOR) announced it intendsthat all LIBOR settings will either cease to stop compelling banks to submit rates forbe provided by any administrator or no longer be representative: (a) immediately after December 31, 2021, in the calculationcase of LIBORthe one week and two-month U.S. dollar settings and (b) immediately after 2021. On NovemberJune 30, 2020, ICE Benchmark Administration (“IBA”),2023, in the administratorcase of LIBOR, with the support of theremaining U.S. dollar settings. The United States Federal Reserve andhas also advised banks to cease entering into new contracts that use USD LIBOR as a reference rate. The Federal Reserve, in conjunction with the FCA, announced plansAlternative Reference Rate Committee, a committee convened by the Federal Reserve that includes major market participants, has identified the Secured Overnight Financing Rate, or SOFR, a new index calculated by short-term repurchase agreements, backed by Treasury securities, as its preferred alternative rate for LIBOR. At this time, it is not possible to consult on ceasing publication of LIBOR on December 31, 2021 for only the one week and two month LIBOR tenors, and on June 30, 2023 for allpredict how markets will respond to SOFR or other LIBOR tenors. While this announcement extendsalternative reference rates as the transition period to June 2023,away from the United States Federal Reserve concurrently issued a statement advising banks to stop new LIBOR issuances bybenchmarks is anticipated in coming years. Accordingly, the end of 2021. In lightoutcome of these recent announcements, the future of LIBOR at this timereforms is uncertain and any changes in the methods by which LIBOR is determined or regulatory activity related to LIBOR’s phaseout could cause LIBOR to perform differently than in the past or cease to exist. We have material contracts that are indexed to USD-LIBOR and are monitoring this activity and evaluating the related risks.

Effect of Certain Debt Covenants

A breach of any of the covenants under the agreements governing existing debt could limit our ability to borrow funds under the Term Loan Facility and could result in a default under the Term Loan Facility. Upon the occurrence of an event of default under the Term Loan Facility, the lenders could elect to declare all amounts then outstanding to be immediately due and payable, and the lenders could terminate all commitments to extend further credit. If we were unable to repay the amounts declared due, the lenders could proceed against any collateral granted to them to secure that indebtedness.

With certain exceptions, the Term Loan Facility obligations are secured by a first-priority security interest in substantially all of our assets. The Term Loan Facility contains various restrictions and nonfinancial covenants, along with a senior secured net leverage ratio test. The nonfinancial covenants include restrictions on dividends, investments, dispositions, future borrowings and other specified payments, as well as additional reporting and disclosure requirements. The senior secured net leverage test must be met as a condition to incur additional indebtedness, but otherwise is applicable only to the extent that amounts drawn exceed 35% of the Revolving Facility at the end of any fiscal quarter. As of December 31, 2020,September 30, 2021, we were in compliance with all debt covenants.

Our ability to meet liquidity needs depends on our subsidiaries’ earnings and cash flows, the terms of our indebtedness along with our subsidiaries’ indebtedness, and other contractual restrictions.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

We are exposed to market risk in the normal course of business.

Interest Rate Risk

We have interest rate risk primarily related to borrowings under our Senior Credit Facilities. Borrowings under the Senior Credit Facilities bear interest at a rate equal to either (i) LIBOR for the relevant interest period, adjusted for statutory reserve requirements (the Term Loan Facility is subject to a floor of 1.00% per annumyear and the Revolving Facility is subject to a floor of 0.00% per annum)year), plus an applicable margin or (ii) a base rate equal to the highest of (a) the rate of interest in effect as publicly announced by the administrative agent as its prime rate, (b) the federal funds effective rate plus 0.50% and (c) adjusted LIBOR for an interest period of one month plus 1.00% (the Term Loan Facility may be subject to a floor of 2.00% per annum)year), in each case, plus an applicable margin.

As of December 31, 2020,September 30, 2021, we had Term Loan Facility borrowings of $3,543.3$3,493.3 million (before unamortized debt discount) and no Revolving Facility borrowings under the Senior Credit Facilities.borrowings. As of December 31, 2020,September 30, 2021, the LIBOR-based interest rate on the Term Loan Facility was LIBOR plus 2.5%.

We manage economic risks, including interest rate, liquidity and credit risk, primarily by managing the amount, sources and duration of our debt funding and the use of derivative financial instruments. Specifically, we enter into interest rate cap agreements to manage exposures that arise from business activities that result in the receipt or payment of future known and uncertain cash amounts, the value of which are determined by interest rates. Our interest rate cap agreements are used to manage differences in the amount, timing and duration of our known or expected cash receipts and our known or expected cash payments principally related to our borrowings. As of December 31, 2020,September 30, 2021, our outstanding interest rate cap agreements were designated as cash flow hedges of interest rate risk and were determined to be highly effective.

A change in interest rates on variable rate debt may impact our pretax earnings and cash flows. Based on the outstanding debt as of December 31, 2020,September 30, 2021, and assuming that our mix of debt instruments, derivative financial instruments and other variables remain the same, the annualized effect of a one percentage point change in variable interest rates would have an annualized pretax impact on the earnings and cash flows of approximately $10.4$1.2 million.

In the future, in order to manage our interest rate risk, we may refinance existing debt, enter into additional interest rate cap agreements, modify our existing interest rate cap agreements or make changes that may impact our ability to treat our interest rate cap agreements as a cash flow hedge. However, we do not intend or expect to enter into derivative or interest rate cap agreement transactions for speculative purposes.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

We are involved in legal proceedings related to the potential UHG Transaction and various other legal proceedings in the ordinary course of business. We believe that the ultimate disposition of such proceedings will not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or liquidity. See Note 15, 14, Legal Proceedings, in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report.to our consolidated financial statements.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

In addition to the risk factors below and the other information included in this report, you should carefully consider the factors discussed in the section entitled “Risk Factors” included in the most recentour Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2021 (“the Annual Report”), as well as the factors identified under “Cautionary StatementNotice Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” at the end of Part I, Item 2 of this Quarterly Report, which could materially affect thehave a material adverse impact on our business, financial condition or futureoperating results. There have been no material changes to the risk factors described in the Annual Report. The risks described in the Annual Report and this Quarterly Report are not the only risks we face. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial may also materially adversely affect our business, financial condition or operating results.

Risks Related to the Proposed Transaction with UnitedHealth Group

The conditions under the UHG Agreement to UnitedHealth Group’s consummation of the transaction with a subsidiary of UnitedHealth Group may not be satisfied at all or in the anticipated timeframe.

Under the terms of the UHG Agreement, the consummation of our transaction with a subsidiary of UnitedHealth Group is subject to customary conditions. Satisfaction of certain of the conditions is not within our control, and difficulties in otherwise satisfying the conditions may prevent, delay or otherwise materially adversely affect the consummation of the transaction. It also is possible that an event, occurrence, revelation or development of a state of circumstances or facts since the date of the UHG Agreement may have or reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect (as defined in the UHG Agreement) on the Company, the non-occurrence of which is a condition to the consummation of the transaction. We cannot predict with certainty whether and when any of the required conditions will be satisfied. If the transaction does not receive, or timely receive, the required regulatory approvals and clearances, or if another event occurs delaying or preventing the transaction, such delay or failure to complete the transaction may create uncertainty or otherwise have negative consequences that may materially and adversely affect our sales, financial condition and results of operations, as well as the price per share for our common stock.

While the proposed transaction is pending, we are subject to business uncertainties and contractual restrictions that could disrupt our business.

Whether or not the proposed transaction is consummated, the proposed transaction may disrupt our current plans and operations, which could have an adverse effect on our business and financial results. The pendency of the transaction may also divert management’s attention and our resources from ongoing business and operations and our employees and other key personnel may have uncertainties about the effect of the pending transaction, and the uncertainties may impact our ability to retain, recruit and hire key personnel while the transaction is pending or if it fails to close. We may incur unexpected costs, charges or expenses resulting from the transaction. Furthermore, we cannot predict how our physician, health plan and other partners will view or react to the transaction upon consummation. If we are unable to reassure our partners to continue their partnerships and affiliates with us, our revenues, financial condition and results of operations may be adversely affected.

The preparations for integration between UnitedHealth Group and the Company have placed, and we expect will continue to place a significant burden on many of our teammates and on our internal resources. If, despite our efforts, key teammates depart because of these uncertainties and burdens, or because they do not wish to remain with the combined company, our business and results of operations may be adversely affected. In addition, whether or not the transaction is consummated, while it is pending we will continue to incur costs, fees, expenses and charges related to the proposed transaction, which may materially and adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.

In addition, the UHG Agreement generally requires the Company to operate its business in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice pending consummation of the merger and also restricts us from taking certain actions with respect to our business and financial affairs without UnitedHealth Group’s consent. Such restrictions will be in place until either the merger is consummated or the UHG Agreement is terminated. For these and other reasons, the pendency of the merger could adversely affect our business and results of operations.

In the event that our proposed transaction with a wholly-owned subsidiary of UnitedHealth Group is not consummated, the trading price of our common stock and our future business and results of operations may be negatively affected.

The conditions to the consummation of the proposed transaction may not be satisfied as noted above. If the transaction is not consummated, we would remain liable for significant transaction costs, and the focus of our management would have been diverted from seeking other potential strategic opportunities, in each case without realizing any benefits of the proposed transaction. For these and other reasons, not consummating the transaction could adversely affect our business and results of operations. Furthermore, if we do not consummate the transaction, the price of our common stock may decline significantly from the current market price, which we believe reflects a market assumption that the transaction will be consummated. Certain costs associated with the transaction have already been incurred or may be payable even if the transaction is not consummated. Further, a failed transaction may result in negative publicity and a negative impression of us in the investment community. Finally, any disruptions to our business resulting from the announcement and pendency of the transaction, including any adverse changes in our relationships with our customers, vendors and employees or recruiting and retention efforts, could continue or accelerate in the event of a failed acquisition.

If the UHG Agreement is terminated, we may, under certain circumstances, be obligated to pay a termination fee to UnitedHealth Group. These costs could require us to use available cash that would have otherwise been available for other uses.

If the proposed transaction is not completed, in certain circumstances, we could be required to pay a termination fee of $300.0 million to UnitedHealth Group. If the UHG Agreement is terminated, the termination fee we may be required to pay, if any, under the UHG Agreement may require us to use available cash that would have otherwise been available for general corporate purposes or other uses. For these and other reasons, termination of the UHG Agreement could materially and adversely affect our business, results of operations or financial condition, which in turn would materially and adversely affect the price per share of our common stock.
