NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(unaudited)
 
1.Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10–Q and Rule 10–01 of Regulation S–X. Accordingly, they do not include all information and notes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements that are included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10–K for the year ended December 31, 2017,2018, filed with the SEC on March 1, 2018.18, 2019 and our Form 10–K/A filed with the SEC on March 20, 2019. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, including normal recurring accruals, considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018March 31, 2019 are not necessarily indicative of the results for any future periods or the year ending December 31, 2018.2019.
Effective January 1, 2019, the Company modified the presentation of the unaudited condensed balance sheets to separately classify its restricted cash payable. The prior period has been reclassified to conform with this presentation. There was no change to current liabilities as a result of this change.
We apply the same accounting policies in preparing our quarterly and annual financial statements, with the exception of the new leasing standard which is required to be adopted on a prospective basis. Refer to Note 2, Recent Accounting Pronouncements, for more information. The Company rounds amounts in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements to thousands and calculates all per-share data from underlying whole-dollar amounts. Thus, certain amounts may not foot, crossfoot or recalculate based on reported numbers due to rounding.
ChangesRevision of Prior Period Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for Correction of Immaterial Errors
As more fully described in our 2018 Form 10–K, in 2018 we revised our prior year financial statements to Prior Year Financial Statement Presentation
Effective January 1, 2018,correct for immaterial errors in the Company modified the presentation of the balance sheets andfinancial statements of incomeour Brazilian subsidiary and changed how it allocates certain costsother immaterial errors impacting prior years that were not previously recorded. The accompanying quarterly financial statements have been revised for these errors. Collectively, hereinafter these revisions to correct are referred to as the “Revised” financial statements or the “Revision”. Management believes that the effects of this Revision are not material to our segments. These changes enhance the information reported to the users of our financial statements.
The Company now classifies assets and liabilities as current and non-current within ourpreviously issued unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets as defined according tofinancial statements.
The effects of the normal twelve month operating cycle ofRevision on our business. Prior period amounts have been recast to conform with this presentation. As a result of this change, total assets and total liabilities have increased by approximately $3.7 million compared to what was reported within our Annual Report on Form 10–K for the year ended December 31, 2017 due to a gross-up of interest rate swap arrangements to reflect their corresponding short and long-term portions. See Note 11, Fair Value, for more information on the fair value of our interest rate swap arrangements.
Additionally, the Company has modified the presentation of certain line items in its unaudited condensed consolidated statements of income. Under the new presentation, costs of services are segregated from other operating expenses. Operating expenses have been reclassified into functional categories in order to provide additional detail into the underlying drivers of changes in operating expensesincome and align presentation with industry practice. The revised presentation did not result in a change to previously reported revenues, operating income, income before income taxes or net income.cash flows were as follows:
Effective with the change in financial statement presentation noted above, the Company now reports expenses in the categories noted below. No changes have been made to non-operating expenses.

2.Recent Accounting Pronouncements
The following table provides a brief description of accounting pronouncements adopted during the sixthree months ended June 30, 2018March 31, 2019 and recent accounting pronouncements that could have a material effect on our financial statements:
Standard Description Date/Method of Adoption Effect on financial statements or other significant matters
Adopted During the SixThree Months Ended June 30, 2018March 31, 2019
ASU 2014–09
This standard supersedes most existing revenue recognition guidance under GAAP. The new revenue recognition standard requires entities to recognize revenue for the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. In addition, the standard requires disclosure of the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers.

The Company adopted this standard on January 1, 2018 using the modified retrospective approach to those contracts that were not completed as of January 1, 2018.

Adoption resulted in a cumulative adjustment to retained earnings as of the effective date, without restatement of prior period amounts.
The Company’s revenue from discount and interchange, transaction processing and certain fees is within the scope of Topic 606. FASB and its Transition Resource Group have issued clarifications on various aspects of ASU 2014–09. There were three primary impacts to the Company resulting from the adoption of Topic 606, which are described below.

Certain amounts paid to partners in our Fleet Solutions and Travel and Corporate Solutions segments have been determined to fall under the “cost to obtain a contract” guidance. As a result, these amounts, which were previously presented as a reduction of revenues, are now reflected within sales and marketing on our unaudited condensed consolidated statements of income. This change increased both reported revenues and expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 by approximately $16.2 million and $31.1 million, respectively.

Network fees paid by all three of our segments, but primarily by our Travel and Corporate Solutions segment, are now presented as a reduction of revenues in our unaudited condensed consolidated statements of income. Prior to January 1, 2018, these amounts were included within service fees. This change reduced both reported revenues and expenses by approximately $4.4 million and $10.0 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively.

Certain costs to obtain a contract, such as sales commissions, are to be capitalized and amortized over the life of the customer relationship, with a practical expedient available for contracts under one year in duration. The vast majority of the Company’s commissions will continue to be expensed as incurred. This change resulted in an immaterial impact to operating income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018.

As of January 1, 2018, we recorded $0.6 million cumulative-effect adjustment, net of the associated tax effect, related to the deferral of capitalizable costs to obtain a contract within our Health and Employee Benefit Solutions segment. These commissions are amortized to sales and marketing expense over a useful life that considers the contract term, our commission policy, renewal experience and the transfer of services to which the asset relates.
ASU 2017–072016–02 This standard changes the presentation of net benefit pension costs by requiring the disaggregation of certain of its components. Under the guidance, companies are requiredrequires lessees to present the service cost component in the same income statement line item(s) as other employee compensation costs arising from services rendered during the period. The other components of net benefit cost will be presented in the income statement separately from the service cost componentrecognize leases on-balance sheet and outside the subtotal of operating income, if one is presented. Additionally, only the service cost component will be eligible for capitalization under the new guidance.disclose key information about leasing arrangements. The Company adopted ASU 2017–072016–02 effective January 1, 2018.
2019, using the modified retrospective approach, and all practical expedients permitted under the transition guidance.
 
In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2016–02, Leases (Topic 842), which requires leases with a duration greater than twelve months to be recognized on the balance sheet as right-of-use (“ROU”) assets and lease liabilities.
We adopted the new standard using the modified retrospective approach and have elected the package of practical expedients permitted under the transition guidance, including the hindsight practical expedients for expired or existing contracts, which allowed us to carryforward our historical determination of (i) whether a contract is or contains a lease, (ii) lease classification and (iii) initial direct costs. Additionally, we elected the practical expedients which allowed us to (i) not perform an allocation of lease and non-lease components for real estate leases, (ii) continue to account for short-term leases under Topic 840 and (iii) utilize our incremental borrowing rate (“IBR”), rather than the rate implicit in each lease, to calculate the present value of the remaining lease payments. As such, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the period ended March 31, 2019 are presented under the new standard, while comparative periods presented continue to be reported in accordance with Topic 840.
The most significant impact of adoption was the recording of operating lease ROU assets and operating lease liabilities on our unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets at January 1, 2019. Refer to Note 14, Leases, for more information. The standard did not materially impact our results of operations or cash flows.

ASU 201815
This standard clarifies the accounting for capitalizing implementation costs in a cloud computing arrangement that is a service contract. The standard provides that implementation costs be treated using the same criteria used for internal-use software development costs, with amortization expense being recorded in the same income statement expense line as the hosted service costs and over the expected term of the hosting arrangement.Effective January 1, 2019, the Company early adopted ASU 2018–15 on a prospective basis.Under the standard, we now capitalize implementation costs related to our cloud migration of technology platforms to the cloud. Such amounts are amortized over the lesser of the term of the hosting arrangement, considering any explicit renewal options for which we are reasonably certain to exercise, or the useful life of the underlying hosted software. We do not expect that adoption of this standard will have a material impact on our results of operations, cash flows or consolidated financial position.

ASU 2016–18This standard clarifies the classification and presentation of restricted cash in the statement of cash flows. Upon adoption, the statement of cash flows must explain the change during the period in the total of cash and cash equivalents and amounts described as restricted cash or cash equivalents.The Company retrospectively adopted ASU 2016–18 effective January 1, 2018.
This retrospective adoption resulted in including restricted cash in cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash when reconciling the beginning of year and end of year amounts presented on the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of cash flows.

A reconciliation of cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash as reported within our unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets is included within our unaudited condensed consolidated statements of cash flows.




ASU 2016–01This standard requires equity investments, except those accounted for under the equity method of accounting, or those that result in consolidation of the investee, to be measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in net income.The Company adopted ASU 2016–01 effective
January 1, 2018.
Changes in the fair value of investment securities are now reflected as non-operating income within our unaudited condensed consolidated statements of income. The adoption did not have a material impact on our results of operations, balance sheet or cash flows.
Not Yet Adopted as of June 30, 2018March 31, 2019
ASU 2016–02 Leases (Topic 842)
This standard increases transparency and comparability among organizations by recognizing lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet and disclosing key information about leasing arrangements. Certain qualitative and quantitative disclosures are required.The standard is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within that reporting period using modified retrospective adoption.
The Company has established an ASU 2016–02 committee whose primary objectives include evaluating potential software solutions, reviewing and summarizing lease contracts, establishing completeness over the lease population, determining which practical expedients, if any, we will utilize to facilitate compliance and updating the Company’s accounting policies and procedures. We expect to recognize right-of-use assets and corresponding lease liabilities on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet following the adoption of ASU 2016–02, but the Company is not able to quantify the impact of adoption at this time. We are also evaluating the impact the standard will have on our consolidated statement of operations, consolidated statement of cash flows and related disclosures201613

Payment Processing Revenue
Payment processing revenue consists primarily of interchange income. Interchange income is a fee paid by a merchant bank (“merchant”) to the card-issuing bank (generally the Company) in exchange for the Company facilitating and processing transactions with cardholders. Interchange fees are set by the card network. WEX processes transactions through both closed-loop and open-loop networks.
Our Fleet Solutions segment interchange income primarily relates to revenue earned on transactions processed through the Company’s proprietary closed-loop fuel networks. In closed-loop fuel network arrangements, written contracts are entered into between the Company and merchants, which determine the interchange fee charged on transactions. The Company extends short-term credit to the fleet cardholder and pays the merchant the purchase price for the cardholder’scardholder��s transaction, less the interchange fees the Company retains. The Company collects the total purchase price from the fleet cardholder. In Europe, interchange income is specifically derived from the difference between the negotiated price of fuel from the supplier and the agreed upon price paid by fleet cardholders.

Interchange income in our Travel and Corporate Solutions and Health and Employee Benefit Solutions segments relates to revenue earned on transactions processed through open-loop networks. In open-loop network arrangements, there are several intermediaries involved between the merchant and the cardholder, and written contracts do not exist between all parties involved in the process do not exist.process. Rather, the transaction is governed by the rates determined by the payment network at the point-of-sale. This framework dictates the interchange rate, the risk of loss, dispute procedures and timing of payment. For these transactions, there is an implied contract between the Company and the merchant. In our Travel and Corporate Solutions segment, the Company remits payment to the card network for the purchase price of the cardholder transaction, less the interchange fees the Company earns. The Company collects the total purchase price from the cardholder. In our Health and Employee Benefit Solutions segment, funding of transactions and collections from cardholders is performed by third-party sponsor banks, who remit a portion of the interchange fee to us.
The Company has determined that the merchant is the customer as it relates to interchange income regardless of the type of network through which transactions are processed. The Company’s primary performance obligation to merchants is a stand-ready commitment to provide payment and transaction processing services as the merchant requires, which is satisfied over time in daily increments. Since the timing and quantity of transactions to be processed by us is not determinable, the total consideration is determined to be variable consideration. The variable consideration for our payment and transaction processing service is usage-based and therefore it specifically relates to our efforts to satisfy our obligation. The variability is satisfied each day the service is provided to the customer. We directly ascribe variable fees to the distinct day of service to which it relates, and we consider the services performed each day in order to ascribe the appropriate amount of total fees to that day. Therefore, we measure interchange income on a daily basis based on the services that are performed on that day.
In determining the amount

Table of consideration received related to payment and transaction processing services provided, the Company assessed other intermediaries involved in the processing of transactions, including merchant acquirers, card networks, sponsor banks and third-party payment processors, and assessed whether the Company controls such services performed by other intermediaries according to principal-agent guidance in Topic 606. Based on this assessment, theContents

The Company determined that WEX does not control the services performed by merchant acquirers, card networks, and sponsor banks and online bill payment aggregators as each of these parties is the primary obligor for their portion of payment and transaction processing services performed. Therefore, interchange income is recognized net of any fees owed to these intermediaries. The Company determined that services performed by third-party payment processors are controlled by WEX as the Company is responsible for directing how the third-party payment processor authorizes and processes transactions on the Company’s behalf. Therefore, such fees paid to third-party payment processors are recorded as service fees within cost of services.
Additionally, the Company enters into contracts with certain large customers or strategic cardholders that provide for fee rebates tied to performance milestones. The Company considered whetherIf such fee rebates constitute consideration payable to a customer or other partiesto another party that purchasepurchases services from the customer, per Topic 606. If so, such fee rebates, whichthey are considered variable consideration and are recorded as a reduction in payment processing revenue in the same period that the related interchange income is recognized. For the three and six months ended June 30,March 31, 2019 and 2018, such variable consideration totaled approximately $222.7$198.7 million and $421.2$198.5 million, respectively. FeeCertain other fee rebates made to certain other partners were determined to bethat constitute costs to obtain a contract and are recorded as sales and marketing expenses.
Account Servicing Revenue
In our Fleet Solutions segment, account servicing revenue is primarily comprised of monthly fees charged to cardholders based on the number of vehicles serviced. These fees are primarily in return for providing monthly vehicle data reports and are recognized on a monthly basis as the service is provided. Additionally, account servicing revenue includes other fees recognized as revenue when assessed to the cardholder as part of the lending relationship, which is outside the scope of Topic 606. The Company also recognizes account servicing revenue related to reporting services on telematics hardware placements and permit sales to our over-the-road fleet customer base, both of which are within the scope of Topic 606.
In our Travel and Corporate Solutions segment, account servicing reflects revenues earned from our AOC acquisition, primarily consistingconsists of licensing fees for the use of our accounts receivable and accounts payable SaaS platforms.
In our Health and Employee Benefit Solutions segment, we also recognize account servicing fees for the per-participant per-month fee charged per consumer on our SaaS healthcare technology platform. Customers including health plans, third-party administrators, financial institutions and payroll companies typically enter into three to five year contracts, which contain significant termination penalties.
Our primary performance obligation in our Travel and Corporate Solutions and Health and Employee Benefit Solutions segments is a stand-ready commitment to provide SaaS services and support, which isare stand-ready commitments and are satisfied over time in a series of daily

Finance Fee Revenue
The Company earns revenue on overdue accounts, which is recognized as revenue at the time the fees are assessed. The finance fee is calculated using the greater of a minimum charge or a stated late fee rate multiplied by the outstanding balance that is subject to a late fee charge. On occasion, these fees are waived to maintain customer goodwill. The established reserve for such waived amounts is estimated and offset against the late fee revenue recognized. The Company engages inThese waived fees amounted to $4.5 million and $4.4 million during the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

4.Business AcquisitionAcquisitions
AOCAsset Acquisition
Effective October 18, 2017,In December 2016, the Company entered into a contract with Chevron to issue and operate branded commercial fleet cards commencing in 2018. During October 2018, the Company entered into a definitive asset purchase agreement to acquire Chevron’s existing trade accounts receivable and customer portfolio from a third party for approximately $223.4 million, of which a portion will be paid during 2019. During 2018, the consideration paid consisted of approximately $162.8 million to acquire the customer portfolio, with $38.9 million paid into escrow for the carrying value of a portion of the accounts receivable at the date of purchase.
As of March 31, 2019, the deposits for the customer portfolio and accounts receivable are recorded in other assets and prepaid expenses and other current assets on the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets, respectively. During the second quarter of 2019, when the Company obtains control of the customer portfolio and the customer accounts are converted onto the Company’s payment processing platform, the amounts will be reclassified to other intangible assets and accounts receivable, respectively. We will account for this transaction under the asset acquisition method of accounting.
    Concurrently with entering into the asset purchase agreement, we modified a number of contract terms, including extending the term of Chevron’s agreement, which is the period that we will use to amortize the other intangible asset on a straight-line basis. Transaction costs related to the acquisition were insignificant and expensed as incurred.
Business Acquisitions

In both the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, the acquisition and merger related costs related to completed business combinations were immaterial. 
Discovery Benefits, Inc.
On March 5, 2019, the Company acquired certain assets and assumed certain liabilitiesDiscovery Benefits, an employee benefits administrator, for a total purchase price of AOC, an industry leader$525.6 million, including $50 million which is payable in commercial payments technology.January 2020. The acquisition of AOC, a longstanding technology provider for our virtual card product, will broaden our capabilities, increase our pool of employees with payments platform expertise and allow us to evolve with the needs of our customers and partners through the use of AOC’s payments processing technology platforms.
The Company purchased AOC for $129.8 million, which was primarily funded with cash on hand and through borrowings under the 2016 Credit Agreement. The Company records adjustmentsseller of Discovery Benefits obtained a 4.9 percent equity interest in the U.S. Health business. The fair value of the equity interest was determined to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed throughout the measurement period, which may be up to one year from$100.0 million on the acquisition date. The CompanySee Note 12, Redeemable Non-Controlling Interest, for further information.
This acquisition has obtained information to assist in determining the fair values of certain assets acquired and liabilities assumed since the acquisition, resulting primarily in the recording of other intangible assets and goodwill. Goodwill is calculatedbeen accounted for as the consideration in excess of net assets recognized and represents the future economic benefits arising from other assets acquired that could not be individually identified and separately recognized, including synergies derived from the acquisition. The goodwill and intangible assets recorded from thisa business combination, were assignedwith preliminary goodwill reflecting the comprehensive suite of products and services for our partners and customers and opening go-to-market channels to include consulting firms and brokers in our TravelHealth and CorporateEmployee Benefit Solutions segment.
During the second quarter of 2018, the Company assigned $21.6 million The majority of the purchase price to an acquired processing platform thatgoodwill associated with this acquisition is still under research and development and has not reached technological feasibility. While research and development continues, this asset will not be amortized. Additionally, it will be subjected to impairment testing at least annually, but more frequently if events of circumstances indicate that it is more likely than not that the asset is impaired. This intangible asset will considered indefinite lived until completion or abandonment of the project. The Company has not finalized the purchase accounting is still reviewing the valuation and tax basis of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in this business combination. Additionally, we are performing procedures to verify the completeness and accuracy of the data used in the independent valuation for intangible assets identified in the table below. The preliminary estimates could change significantly upon completion of this evaluation. The goodwill recognized in this business combination will be deductible for income tax purposes.

Noventis, Inc.
On January 24, 2019, the Company acquired Noventis, a long-time customer and electronic payments network focused on optimizing payment delivery for bills and invoices to commercial entities, for $343.1 million, which was primarily funded with cash on hand and through borrowings under the 2016 Credit Agreement. Excluded from the consideration is $5.6 million paid to certain Noventis shareholders who held unvested option awards at the acquisition date.  The modification of these awards to accelerate the vesting resulted in the Company recording this expense as general and administrative expense in our unaudited condensed consolidated statement of income.
This acquisition, which expands our reach as a corporate payments supplier and provides more channels to billing aggregators and financial institutions in our Travel and Corporate Payment Solutions segment, was accounted for as a business combination, resulting in the recording of goodwill. The goodwill associated with this acquisition is not deductible for tax purposes.

This acquisition, which has been accounted for as a business combination, complements our existing factoring business and as a result the purchase price is primarily allocated to goodwill and accounts receivable in amounts of approximately $6.7$12.8 million and net loss$14.6 million, respectively. The goodwill associated with this acquisition is deductible for tax purposes.
Since the acquisition date, Pavestone Capital revenues and income before income taxes, of approximately $0.6 million during the year ended December 31, 2017.which are recorded in our Fleet Solutions segment, were not material to Company operations.

The Company has not finalized the purchase accounting for Discovery Benefits, Noventis or Pavestone and is currently evaluating the tax basis and allocation of the net assets acquired. Additionally, the Company is performing a valuation of intangible assets acquired in the business combinations. The preliminary estimates could change significantly upon completion of these valuations.

GO Fuel Card
On March 26, 2019, the Company entered into an agreement to acquire Go Fuel Card, a European fuel card business, for a total purchase price of €235.0 million (equivalent of $265.5 million on date of agreement). We expect that this acquisition will strengthen our position in the European market and reduce our sensitivity to retail fuel prices. This transaction is expected to close late in the second quarter or early in the third quarter of 2019, subject to regulatory approvals and other customary closing conditions.
5.Accounts Receivable
In general, the Company’s trade receivables provide for payment terms of 30 days or less. Receivables not paid within the terms of the agreement are generally subject to late fees based upon the outstanding receivable balance.
The Company extends revolving credit to certain small fleets. These accounts are also subject to late fees, and balances that are not paid in fullfleets, which are subject to interest charges based on the revolving balance.balance not paid in full. The Company had approximately $18.0$43.0 million and $12.2$18.9 million in receivables with revolving credit balances as of June 30, 2018March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2017,2018, respectively. The increase in revolving credit balances during the three months ended March 31, 2019 was due to the onboarding of a significant customer portfolio.
Concentration of Credit Risk
The receivables portfolio consists of a large group of homogeneous smaller balances across a wide range of industries, which are collectively evaluated for impairment. No one customer receivable balance represented 10 percent or more of the outstanding receivables balance at June 30, 2018March 31, 2019 or December 31, 2017.2018. The following table presents the outstanding balance of trade accounts receivable that are less than 30 and 60 days past due, in each case, as a percentage of total trade accounts receivable:
Delinquency StatusJune 30, 2018 December 31, 2017March 31, 2019 December 31, 2018
29 days or less past due98% 95%96% 95%
59 days or less past due99% 97%98% 98%
Reserves for Accounts Receivable
Receivables are generally written off when they are 150 days past due or upon declaration of bankruptcy of the customer. The reserve for credit losses is primarily calculated by an analytic model that also takes into account other factors, such as the actual charge-offs for the preceding reporting periods, expected charge-offs and recoveries for the subsequent reporting periods, a review of past due accounts receivable balances, changes in payment patterns, known fraudulent activity in the portfolio, as well as leading economic and market indicators.

1 The Company earns revenue by assessing monthly finance fees on accounts with overdue balances. These fees are recognized as revenue at the time the fees are assessed. The finance fee is calculated using the greater of a minimum charge or a stated late fee rate multiplied by the outstanding balance that is subject to a late fee charge. On occasion, these fees are waived to maintain relationship goodwill. Charges to other accounts represents the offset against the late fee revenue recognized when the Company establishes a reserve for such waived amounts.
6.Earnings per Share
Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income attributable to shareholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock and vested deferred stock units (“DSUs”) outstanding during the year. The computation of diluted earnings per share is similar to the computation of basic earnings per share, except that the denominator is increased for the assumed exercise of dilutive options theand assumed issuance of unvested restricted stock units and deferred stock units, and unvested performance-based restricted stock unitsawards for which the performance condition has been met as of the date of determination using the treasury stock method unless the effect is anti-dilutive. The treasury stock method assumes that proceeds, including cash received from the exercise of employee stock options and the average unrecognized compensation expense for unvested share-based compensation awards, would be used to purchase the Company’s common stock at the average market price during the period.
The following table summarizes net income attributable to shareholders and reconciles basic and diluted shares outstanding used in the earnings per share computations:

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2017.March 31, 2019, the Company sold $20.7 million of receivables and recognized a $3.7 million gain on sale, consisting of the difference between the sales price and the carrying value of the receivables, which is recorded within other revenue in our unaudited condensed consolidated statement of income. Cash proceeds from the transfer of these receivables is reflected as an operating activity within our unaudited condensed consolidated statement of cash flows.
11.Fair Value
The Company holds mortgage-backed securities, fixed-income securities, money market funds, derivatives (see Note 7, Derivative Instruments) and certain other financial instruments that are carried at fair value. The Company determines fair value based upon quoted prices when available or through the use of alternative approaches, such as model pricing, when market quotes are not readily accessible or available. Various factors are considered in determining the fair value of the Company’s obligations, including: closing exchange or over-the-counter market price quotations; time value and volatility factors underlying options and derivatives; price activity for equivalent instruments; and the Company’s own credit standing.

These valuation techniques may be based upon observable and unobservable inputs. Observable inputs reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect the Company’s market assumptions. These two types of inputs create the following fair value hierarchy:
Level 1 – Quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets.
Level 2 – Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations whose inputs are observable or whose significant value drivers are observable.
Level 3 – Instruments whose significant value drivers are unobservable.
Assets and liabilities measured at fair value are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Our assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and considers factors specific to the asset or liability. We did not have any transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy during either of the three and six months ended June 30, 2018March 31, 2019 or June 30, 2017.March 31, 2018.

Money Market Funds
A portion of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents are invested in a money market fund that primarily consists of short-term government securities, which are classified as Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy because they are valued using quoted market prices in an active market.
Investment Securities
When available, the Company uses quoted market prices to determine the fair value of investment securities; such inputs are classified as Level 1 of the fair-value hierarchy. These securities primarily consist of an open-ended mutual fund, which is invested in fixed-income securities and is held in order to satisfy the regulatory requirements of WEX Bank. For mortgage-backed and asset-backed debt securities and municipal bonds, the Company generally uses quoted prices for recent trading activity of assets with similar characteristics to the debt security or bond being valued. The securities and bonds priced using such methods are generally valued using Level 2 inputs.

2016 Credit Agreement
The Company determines the fair value of the amount outstanding under its 2016 Credit Agreement based on the market rates for the issuance of the Company’s debt, which are Level 2 inputs in the fair value hierarchy.

The carrying values of certificates of deposit, interest-bearing brokered money market deposits, securitized debt, participation debt and borrowed federal funds approximate their respective fair values, as the interest rates on these financial instruments are variable market-based rates. All other financial instruments are reflected at fair value on the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets.
12.Redeemable Non-Controlling Interest
On March 5, 2019, the Company acquired Discovery Benefits, an employee benefits administrator. The seller of Discovery Benefits obtained a 4.9 percent equity interest in the newly formed parent company of WEX Health and Discovery Benefits (“the U.S. Health business”). The seller’s 4.9 percent non-controlling interest in WEX Health and DBI was initially established at carrying value and fair value, respectively. On the date of acquisition, the excess of the fair value of the 4.9 percent equity interest in WEX Health over its carrying value was recognized as an equity transaction, resulting in a $41.4 million increase to additional paid-in capital.
The agreement provides the seller with a put right and the Company with a call right for the equity interest, which can be exercised no earlier than five and seven years following the date of acquisition, respectively. Upon exercise of the put or call right, the purchase price is calculated based on a revenue multiple of peer companies (as defined in the agreement) applied to trailing twelve month revenues of the U.S. Health business. The put option makes the non-controlling interest redeemable and, therefore, the non-controlling interest is classified as temporary equity outside of stockholders’ equity. The redeemable non-controlling interest is reported at the higher of its redemption value or the non-controlling interest holder’s proportionate share of the U.S. Health business’ net carrying value.
Subsequent remeasurement of the equity interest to fair value resulted in an increase to redeemable non-controlling interest of $41.4 million and an offsetting decrease to retained earnings that did not impact earnings per share. As of March 31, 2019, the carrying amount for this redeemable non-controlling interest was greater than the redemption value, resulting in no adjustment to reflect the non-controlling interest at redemption value. Subsequent increases or decreases in the redemption value of the non-controlling interest will be offset against retained earnings and impact earnings per share.

During the fourth quarter of 2017, the Company recorded a provisional amount of one-time income tax benefit of $60.6 million associated with the 2017 Tax Act and it has not changed at June 30, 2018. This estimate may be impacted by further analysis and future clarification and guidance regarding available taxWhile our accounting methods and elections, earnings and profits computations and state tax conformity to federal tax changes. As of June 30, 2018, we are still evaluating the effects of the Global Intangible Low Taxed Income (“GILTI”) provisions as guidance and interpretations continue to emerge. However, we do not expect the impact to be material to our financial statements. We have not determined the accounting policy of either treating taxes due on future U.S. inclusions in taxable income related to GILTI as a current period expense when incurred, or factoring such amounts into the Company’s measurement of its deferred taxes. However, the standard requires that we reflectfor the impact of the GILTI provisions2017 Tax Cut and Jobs Act (“TCJA”) as a period expense untilof December 31, 2018 was deemed to be complete, amounts recorded were based on prevailing regulations and available information as of December 31, 2018.

Undistributed earnings and profits of certain foreign subsidiaries of the Company amounted to $76.6$77.0 million and $58.7$64.9 million at June 30, 2018March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2017,2018, respectively. These earnings and profits are considered to be indefinitely reinvested. The 2017 Tax Act imposes a one-time “transition tax” on foreign undistributed earnings and profits, which will be included with our 2017 U.S. Income Tax Return. At December 31, 2017, the Company estimated the transition tax and recorded a provisional transition tax obligation of $9.1 million. However, the Company is continuing to gather additional information to more precisely compute the amount of the transition tax and our provisional estimate could change. The Company intends to offset the “transition tax” liability with tax attributes. For the period ending June 30, 2018, except for GILTI, as indicated above, the Company did not record United States federal income tax on its share of the income of its foreign subsidiaries. Upon distribution of these earnings and profits in the form of dividends or otherwise, the Company would be subject to withholding taxes payable, where applicable, to foreign countries, where applicable, and to certain state income taxes, but would have no further federal income tax liability.
13.14.Leases
We have operating leases for buildings, primarily for office space. For building leases with terms greater than twelve months, we account for lease and non-lease components as a single lease component. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet. Short-term lease payments are recognized on a straight-line basis and variable short-term lease payments are recognized in the period in which the obligation is incurred. We determine whether or not a contract contains a lease at inception of the contract. Many of our lease agreements contain renewal or termination clauses that we factor into our determination of the lease term if we are reasonably certain to exercise any such options.

The fair value of RSUs, DSUs and PBRSUs is based on the closing market price of the Company’s stock on the grant date as reported by the NYSE. The fair value of each service-based stock option award is estimated on the grant date using a Black-Scholes-Merton option-pricing model. During the first half of 2017, we granted performance-based stock options for which we estimated the grant date fair value using a Monte-Carlo simulation model that simulated a distribution of future stock price paths based on historical volatility levels.

In evaluatingThe CODM evaluates the financial performance of each segment the CODM reviewsusing segment adjusted operating income, which excludes: (i) acquisition and divestiture related items (including acquisition-related intangible amortization); (ii) debt restructuring costs; (iii) stock-based compensation; (iv) restructuring and other costs; and (v) certain impairment charges.unallocated corporate expenses. Additionally, we do not allocate foreign currency gains and losses, financing interest expense, unrealized and realized gains and losses on derivativefinancial instruments, income taxes and net gains or losses from non-controlling interestinterests to our operating segments.
Effective January 1, 2018, the Company revised how it allocates certain costs in its measure of segment adjusted operating income. The primary change is how the Company allocates information technology and corporate related costs to its segments. Certain information technology and corporate related costs that support multiple segments, which were previously included in Fleet Solutions, are now being allocated to the segment that they support. Certain residual unallocated corporate costs represent the portion of expenses relating to general corporate functions including acquisition expenses, certain finance, legal, information technology, human resources, administrative, executive and other expenses. These expenses are recorded in unallocated corporate expenses, as these items are centrally and directly controlled and are not included in internal measures of segment operating performance. Segment results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 have been recast to conform to the current presentation as described above.

Effective January 1, 2018, the Company changed how it allocates certain costs. These changes enhance the information reported to the users of our quarterly and annual filings. The primary change is how the Company allocates information technology and corporate-related costs to its segments. Certain information technology and corporate-related costs that support multiple segments, which were previously included entirely within the Fleet Solutions segment, are now being allocated to the segment that they support. Certain residual unallocated corporate costs represent the portion of expenses relating to general corporate functions including acquisition expenses, certain finance, legal, information technology, human resources, administrative and executive expenses and other expenses. These expenses are recorded in unallocated corporate expenses, as these items are centrally and directly controlled and are not included in internal measures of segment operating performance.
Summary
Below are selected items from the second quarter of 2018:
Average number of vehicles serviced increased 8 percent from the second quarter of 2017 to approximately 11.8 million for the second quarter of 2018, resulting entirely from organic growth.
Total fuel transactions processed increased 7 percent from the second quarter of 2017 to 139.2 million for the second quarter of 2018. Total payment processing transactions in our Fleet Solutions segment increased 7 percent to 115.9 million for the second quarter of 2018 as compared to the same period last year resulting entirely from organic growth.
The average U.S. fuel price per gallon during the second quarter of 2018 was $3.02, a 25 percent increase from the same period last year.
Credit loss expense in the Fleet Solutions segment was $11.0 million during the second quarter of 2018, as compared to $15.1 million in the same period last year, driven primarily by a significant decrease in fraud losses. Our credit losses were 11.2 basis points of fuel expenditures for the second quarter of 2018, as compared to 20.5 basis points of fuel expenditures in the same period last year.
Our Travel and Corporate Solutions’ purchase volume grew by approximately $1,253.5 million from the second quarter of 2017 to $8,930.4 million for the second quarter of 2018, an increase of 16 percent, driven by higher customer purchase volumes across all geographies, most significantly within the U.S. travel business.
Our Health and Employee Benefit Solutions’ average number of U.S. SaaS accounts grew by approximately 1.8 million, a 20% increase from the same period in the prior year, due primarily to customer signings. Likewise, U.S. purchase volume grew by $126.5 million, an 11% increase from the same period of the prior year.
Our effective tax rate was 26.1 percent for the second quarter of 2018 as compared to 39.0 percent in the same period last year. The decline in our tax rate was primarily due to the 2017 Tax Act, which reduced the U.S. federal corporate income tax rate from 35 percent to 21 percent effective January 1, 2018. Our effective rate may fluctuate due to changes in estimates made under the 2017 Tax Act as more guidance and clarification is released by the regulators, the mix of earnings among different tax jurisdictions, as well as from impacts that statutory tax rate and earnings mix changes have on our net deferred tax assets.

Results of Operations
The Company does not allocate foreign currency gains and losses, financing interest expense, unrealized and realized gains and losses on financial instruments, income taxes and net gains or losses from non-controlling interest to our operating segments as management believes these items are unpredictable and can obscure underlying trends. In addition, effective January 1, 2018, the Company does not allocate certain corporate expenses to our operating segments, as these items are centrally controlled and are not directly attributable to any reportable segment.
Certain information technology and corporate related costs that support multiple segments were previously included entirely within the Fleet Solutions segment. Effective January 1, 2018, such amounts are allocated to the operating segment that they support. Prior year amounts have been recast to conform with the changes in segment profitability described above.

Payment processing revenue increased $25.2 million for the second quarter of 2018 and $45.9 million for the first half of 2018 asMarch 31, 2019, compared to the same periodsperiod in the prior year.

Fleet Solutions revenue for the first quarter of 2019 was generally consistent with the same period in the prior year, primarily due to higher average domesticas increased transaction volume was offset by lower fuel prices and the unfavorable impact from the adoption of the new revenue recognition standard and increased payment processing volumes due to organic growth. Upon adoption of the new revenue recognition standard, we reclassified certain amounts paid to partners from a reduction of revenue to selling expense and fees paid to third-party payment processing networks from service fees to a reduction of revenue.
Account servicing revenue increased by $1.7 million for the second quarter of 2018 and $7.8 million for the first half of 2018 as compared to the same periods in the prior year due primarily to an increase in the average number of vehicles serviced and an increase in fees to certain customers as part of domestic price modernization efforts over the course of the prior year.
Other revenue increased by $5.6 million for the second quarter of 2018 and $11.1 million for the first half of 2018 as compared to the same periods in the prior year, resulting primarily from higher relative EFS transaction processing revenue, the impact from the adoption of the new revenue recognition standard and benefits from our price modernization efforts.

Finance income primarily consists of late fees charged for receivables not paid within the terms of the customer agreement based upon the outstanding customer receivable balance. This revenue is earned when a customer’s receivable balance becomes delinquent and is calculated using the greater of a minimum charge or a stated late fee rate multiplied by the outstanding balance that is subject to a late fee charge. Changes in the absolute amount of such outstanding balances can be attributed to (i) changes in fuel prices; (ii) customer specific transaction volume; and (iii) customer specific delinquencies. Finance incomeLate fee revenue can also be impacted by (i) changes in late fee rates and (ii) increases or decreases in customer overdue balances. Late fee rates are determined and set based primarily on the risk associated with our customers, coupled with a strategic view of standard rates within our industry. Periodically, we assess the market rates associated within our industry to determine appropriate late fee rates. We consider factors such as the Company’s overall financial model and strategic plan, the cost to our business from customers failing to pay timely and the impact such late payments have on our financial results. These assessments are typically conducted at least annually but may occur more often depending on macro-economic factors.
Finance income increased $5.9 million for the second quarter of 2018 and $10.0$2.7 million for the first halfquarter of 20182019 as compared to the same periodsperiod in the prior year, primarily due to changesan increase in overdue outstanding balances resulting from higherweighted average domestic fuel prices and volumes.late fee rates. During both the secondfirst quarter and first half of 2018 and 2017,2019, monthly late fee rates and minimum finance charges ranged from 0up to 9.99 percent and $75, respectively, as compared to monthly late fee rates and minimum finance charges of up to 7.99 percent with a minimumand $75, respectively, during the first quarter of $75.2018. The weighted average late fee rate, net of related charge-offs, was 4.44.8 percent and 4.54.6 percent for the threefirst quarter of 2019 and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively, as compared to 4.3 percent for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2017.    respectively.

Concessions to certain customers experiencing financial difficulties may be granted and are limited to extending the time to pay, placing a customer on a payment plan or granting waivers of late fees. There were no material concessions granted to customers experiencing financial difficulties during botheither of the three and six months ended June 30, 2018March 31, 2019 or 2017.2018.
The primary source of factoring fee revenue is calculated as a negotiated percentage fee of the receivable balance that we purchase. A secondary source of factoring fee revenue is a flat rate service fee to our customers that request a non-contractual same day funding of the receivable balance. Factoring fee revenue increased $2.5 million for the second quarter of 2018 and $5.4 million for the first halfquarter of 2018 as compared to2019 was generally consistent with the same periodsperiod in the prior year, due to higher relative receivable balances purchased resulting from increased customer demand for our services.

We generally use a roll-rate methodology to calculate the amount necessary for our ending receivable reserve balance. This methodology considers total receivable balances, recent charge-off experience, recoveries on previously charged-off accounts and the dollars that are delinquent to calculate the total reserve. In addition, management undertakes a detailed evaluation of the receivable balances to help further ensure overall reserve adequacy. The expense we recognized in the quarter is the amount necessary to bring the reserve to its required level based on accounts receivable aging and net charge-offs.

Financing interest expense decreased $2.9 million for the first half of June 30, 2018 as compared to the same period in the prior year, as the favorable impact of lower effective interest rates underon our 2016 Credit Agreement, was partly offset by the absence of a loss on debt extinguishment recognized in the extinguishment of debtprior year as part of our January 2018 debt repricing.
Our foreign currency exchange exposure is primarily related to the remeasurement of our cash, receivable and payable balances, including intercompany transactions that are denominated in foreign currencies. The Company incurred net foreign currency losses of $26.7 million in the second quarter of 2018 and $26.3$3.9 million in the first halfquarter of 20182019, due primarily to losses recognized on intercompany loans resulting from the weakening of threea strengthening of the major foreign currencies in which we transact, the Euro, British pound and Brazilian real. During the second quarter and first half of 2017, the Company benefited from the U.S. dollar weakeningPound relative to the British pound.Euro. During the three months ended March 31, 2018, foreign currency remeasurement did not have a material impact on our operations.

Late inyear, primarily due to an unrealized loss on the fourth quarter of 2017, the Company entered into twoCompany’s outstanding interest rate swap agreements with aggregate notional amounts of $500.0 million. The favorable impact of our swap agreements resultedcontracts recognized during the three months ended March 31, 2019, resulting from a decrease in short term interest rates. During the three months ended March 31, 2018, the Company benefited from increases in the variableshort-term interest rates combined with a higher notional amount of interest rate swaps outstanding.rates.

The declineincrease in our tax rate was primarily due to the 2017 Tax Act, which reduced the U.S. federal corporate incomean increase in unrecognized tax rate from 35 percent to 21 percent effective January 1, 2018.
During the fourth quarter of 2017, the Company recorded a provisional amount of one-time income tax benefit of $60.6 million associated with the 2017 Tax Act and it has not changed at June 30, 2018. This estimate may be impacted by further analysis

and future clarification and guidance regarding available tax accounting methods and elections, earnings and profits computations, state tax conformity to federal tax changes. As of June 30, 2018, we are still evaluating the effects of the Global Intangible Low Taxed Income (“GILTI”) provisions as guidance and interpretations continue to emerge, however, we do not expect the impact to be material to our financial statements. We have not determined accounting policy of either treating taxes due on future U.S. inclusionsbenefits in taxable income related to GILTI as a current period expense when incurred or factoring such amounts into the Company’s measurement of its deferred taxes. However, the standard requires that we reflect the impact of the GILTI provisions as a period expense until the accounting policy is finalized. Therefore, we have included the provisional estimate of GILTI related to current-year operations in our estimated annual effective tax rate, and will be updating the impact and accounting policy as the analysis related to the GILTI provisions is completed.

Non–GAAP Financial Measures That Supplement GAAP Measures
The Company’s non-GAAP adjusted net income excludes unrealized gains and losses on financial instruments, net foreign currency remeasurement gains and losses, acquisition-related intangible amortization, other acquisition and divestiture related items, stock-based compensation, restructuring and other costs, an impairment charge, debt restructuring and debt issuance cost amortization, similar adjustments attributable to our non-controlling interestinterests and certain tax related items.

Although adjusted net income is not calculated in accordance with GAAP, this non-GAAP measure is integral to the Company’s reporting and planning processes;processes and the Company’s chief operating decision makerCODM of the Company uses segment adjusted operating income to allocate resources among our operating segments. The Company considers this measure integral because it excludes the above-specified items that the Company’s management excludes in evaluating the Company’s performance. Specifically, in addition to evaluating the Company’s performance on a GAAP basis, management evaluates the Company’s performance on a basis that excludes the above items because:
Exclusion of the non-cash, mark-to-market adjustments on financial instruments, including interest rate swap agreements and investment securities, helps management identify and assess trends in the Company’s underlying business that might otherwise be obscured due to quarterly non-cash earnings fluctuations associated with these financial instruments. Additionally, the non-cash, mark-to-market adjustments on financial instruments are difficult to forecast accurately, making comparisons across historical and future quarters difficult to evaluate.
Net foreign currency gains and losses primarily result from the remeasurement to functional currency of cash, receivable and payable balances, certain intercompany notes denominated in foreign currencies and any gain or loss on foreign currency hedges relating to these items. The exclusion of these items helps management compare changes in operating results between periods that might otherwise be obscured due to currency fluctuations.
The Company considers certain acquisition-related costs, including certain financing costs, investment banking fees, warranty and indemnity insurance, certain integration-related expenses and amortization of acquired intangibles, as well as gains and losses from divestitures to be unpredictable, dependent on factors that may be outside of our control and unrelated to the continuing operations of the acquired or divested business or the Company. In prior periods not reflected above, the Company has adjusted for goodwill impairments, acquisition-related asset impairments and gains and losses on divestitures. In addition, the size and complexity of an acquisition, which often drives the magnitude of acquisition-related costs, may not be indicative of such future costs. The Company believes that excluding acquisition-related costs and gains or losses of divestitures facilitates the comparison of our financial results to the Company’s historical operating results and to other companies in our industry.
Stock-based compensation is different from other forms of compensation, as it is a non-cash expense. For example, a cash salary generally has a fixed and unvarying cash cost. In contrast, the expense associated with an equity-based award is generally unrelated to the amount of cash ultimately received by the employee, and the cost to the Company is based on a stock-based compensation valuation methodology and underlying assumptions that may vary over time.
Restructuring and other costs are related to certain identified initiatives to further streamline the business, improve the Company’s efficiency, create synergies and to globalize the Company’s operations, all with an objective to improve scale and increase profitability going forward. This also includes other immaterial costs that the Company has incurred and are non-operational and non-recurring. We exclude these items when evaluating our continuing business performance as such items are not consistently occurring and do not reflect expected future operating expense, nor do they provide insight into the fundamentals of current or past operations of our business.

Table of Contents


Impairment charge represents a non-cash asset write-off related to our strategic decision to in-source certain technology functions. This charge does not reflect recurring costs that would be relevant to the Company’s continuing operations. The Company believes that excluding this nonrecurring expense facilitates the comparison of our financial results to the Company’s historical operating results and to other companies in its industry.
Debt restructuring and debt issuance cost amortization are unrelated to the continuing operations of the Company. Debt restructuring costs are not consistently occurring and do not reflect expected future operating expense, nor do they provide insight into the fundamentals of current or past operations of our business. In addition, since debt issuance cost amortization is dependent upon the financing method which can vary widely company to company, we believe that excluding these costs helps to facilitate comparison to historical results as well as to other companies within our industry.
The adjustments attributable to non-controlling interests, including adjustments to the redemption value of a non-controlling interest, have no significant impact on the ongoing operations of the business.
The tax related items are the difference between the Company’s GAAP tax provision and a pro forma tax provision based upon the Company’s adjusted net income before taxes as well as the impact from certain discrete tax items. The methodology utilized for calculating the Company’s adjusted net income tax provision is the same methodology utilized in calculating the Company’s GAAP tax provision.
For the same reasons, WEX believes that adjusted net income may also be useful to investors as one means of evaluating the Company’s performance. However, because adjusted net income is a non-GAAP measure, it should not be considered as a substitute for, or superior to, net income, operating income or cash flows from operating activities as determined in accordance with GAAP. In addition, adjusted net income as used by WEX may not be comparable to similarly titled measures employed by other companies.

Liquidity, and Capital Resources and Cash Flows
We believe that our cash generating capability, financial condition and operations, together with our revolving credit facility, termterms loans and notes outstanding, as well as other available methods of financing (including deposits, participation loans, borrowed federal funds and securitization facilities), will be adequate to fund our cash needs for at least the next 12 months.
Our short-term cash requirements consist primarily of funding the working capital needs of our business, payments on maturities and withdrawals of brokered deposits and borrowed federal funds, required capital expenditures, repayments on our credit facility, interest payments on our credit facility and other operating expenses. WEX Bank can fund our short-term domestic cash requirements through the issuance of brokered deposits and borrowed federal funds. Any remaining cash needs are primarily funded through operations. Our long-term cash requirements consist primarily of amounts owed and corresponding interest payments on our 2016 Credit Agreement and Notes, amounts due to Wyndham Worldwide Corporation as part of our tax receivable agreement and various facilities lease agreements.
Undistributed earnings and profits of certain foreign subsidiaries of the Company amounted to an estimated $76.6 million and $58.7 million as of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively. These earnings and profits are considered to be indefinitely reinvested. As discussed in Item 1 – Note 12, Income Taxes, the United States enacted the 2017 Tax Act in December

2017, which impacted undistributed earnings and profits, among other things. The 2017 Tax Act imposes a one-time “transition tax” on foreign undistributed earnings and profits, which will be included with our 2017 U.S. Income Tax Return. At December 31, 2017, the Company estimated the transition tax and recorded a provisional transition tax obligation of $9.1 million. However, the Company is continuing to gather additional information to more precisely compute the amount of the transition tax and our provisional estimate could change. The Company intends to offset the “transition tax” liability with tax attributes. Upon distribution of these earnings and profits in the form of dividends or otherwise, the Company would be subject to withholding taxes payable to foreign countries, where applicable, and to certain state income taxes, but would have no further federal income tax liability. The Company’s primary tax jurisdictions are the United States, Australia and the United Kingdom.
Earnings outside of the United States are accompanied by certain financial risks, such as changes in foreign currency exchange rates. Changes in foreign currency exchange rates may reduce the reported value of our foreign currency revenues, net of expenses, and cash flows. We cannot predict changes in currency exchange rates, the impact of exchange rate changes, nor the degree to which we will be able to manage the impact of currency exchange rate changes.
Undistributed earnings and profits of certain foreign subsidiaries of the Company amounted to an estimated $77.0 million and $64.9 million as of March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. These earnings are considered to be indefinitely reinvested. Upon distribution of these earnings in the form of dividends or otherwise, the Company would be subject to withholding taxes payable, where applicable, to foreign countries, but would have no further federal income tax liability. The Company’s primary tax jurisdictions are the United States, Australia and the United Kingdom.
We fund a customer'scustomer’s entire receivable as part of fleet and travel payment processing transactions, while the revenue generated by these transactions is only a small percentage of that amount. As a consequence, cash flows from operations are significantly impacted by changes in accounts receivable and accounts payable balances, which directly impact our capital resource requirements.

These factors were partly offset by $153.0 million of borrowings as a result of the January 2018 debt repricing.acquisitions.
Securitization Facilities
The Company is a party to threetwo securitized debt agreements. Under two of these agreements, our subsidiaries sell trade accounts receivable to bankruptcy-remote subsidiaries consolidated by the Company. Under the third agreement, the Company sells certain unsecured salary advance receivables to an investment fund managed by an unrelated third-party financial institution at a discount relative to the face value of the transferred receivables. Amounts collected on the securitized receivables are restricted to pay the securitized debt and are not available for general corporate purposes. See Part I – Item 1 – Note 9, Financing and Other Debt, for more information regarding these facilities.

Interest-bearing brokered money market funds may be withdrawn at any time. We believe that our brokered deposits are paying competitive yields and that there continues to be consumer demand for these instruments.
WEX Bank participates in the ICS service offered by Promontory Interfinancial Network, which allows WEX Bank to purchase brokered money market demand accounts and demand deposit accounts in an amount not to exceed $125.0 million as part of a one-way buy program.

Under this arrangement, the Purchasing Bank establishes a credit limit for each customer account. The factored receivables are without recourse to the extent that the customer balances are maintained at or below the established credit limit. The Company obtained a true sale opinion from an independent attorney, which states that the factoring agreement creates a sale of receivables under local law for amounts transferred both below and above the established credit limits. Additionally, there are no indications of the Company’s continuing involvement in the factored receivables. As a result, the Purchasing Bank is deemed the purchaser of these receivables and is entitled to enforce payment of these amounts from the debtor. Available capacity is dependent on the level of our trade accounts receivable eligible to be sold and the financial institutions’institution’s willingness to purchase such receivables. As such, thesethis factoring arrangementsarrangement can be reduced or eliminated at any time due to market conditions and changes in the credit worthiness of our customers, which would negatively impact our liquidity.

WEX Bank Accounts Receivable Factoring
In August 2018, WEX Bank entered into a receivables purchase agreement with an unrelated third-party financial institution to sell certain of our trade receivables under non-recourse transactions. WEX Bank continues to service the receivables post-transfer with no participating interest. The Company obtained a true-sale opinion from an independent attorney, which states that the factoring agreement provides legal isolation upon WEX Bank bankruptcy or receivership under local law. As such, transfers under this arrangement are treated as a sale. Proceeds from the sale are reported net of negotiated discount rate and are accounted for as a reduction in trade receivables because the agreements transfer effective control of the receivables to the buyer.
WEX Latin America Securitization of Receivables
During the second quarter of 2017, WEX Latin America entered into a securitized debt agreement to transfer certain unsecured receivables associated with our salary payment card product to an investment fund managed by an unrelated third-party financial institution. As of December 31, 2017 and through June 30, 2018, this securitization arrangement did not meet the derecognition conditions due to continuing involvement with the transferred assets and accordingly WEX Latin America reported the transferred receivables and securitized debt on our unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets.
During the third quarter of 2018, the securitization agreements were amended, resulting in the Company giving up effective control of the transferred receivables to the buyer. Additionally, the Company received a true-sale opinion from an independent attorney stating that the amended agreements provide legal isolation upon WEX Latin America bankruptcy or receivership under local law. As such, the securitization arrangement meets the derecognition conditions and transfers under this arrangement are treated as a sale and are accounted for as a reduction in trade receivables. See Part I – Item 1 – Note 10, Off–BalanceOff-Balance Sheet Arrangement, to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of this Form 10–QArrangements, for further information.
Other Liquidity Matters
At June 30, 2018,March 31, 2019, we had variable-rate borrowings of $1.7$2.4 billion under our 2016 Credit Agreement. We periodically review our projected borrowings under our 2016 Credit Agreement and the current interest rate environment in order to ascertain whether interest rate swaps should be used to reduce our exposure to interest rate volatility. We maintain fiveAs of March 31, 2019 we maintained seven interest rate swap contracts that mature between December 20182020 and December 2022.March 2023. Collectively, these derivative contracts are intended to fix the future interest payments associated with $1.3$1.5 billion of our variable rate borrowings at between 0.896%1.108 percent and 2.212%.2.425 percent. See Part I – Item 1 – Note 7, Derivative Instruments, and Note 11, Fair Value, for further information.
We currently have authorization from our board of directors to purchase up to $150 million of our common stock until September 2021, which is entirely unused as of June 30, 2018.March 31, 2019. The program is funded either through our future cash flows or through borrowings on our 2016 Credit Agreement. Share repurchases are made on the open market and may be commenced or suspended at any time. The Company’s management, based on its evaluation of market and economic conditions and other factors, determines the timing and number of shares repurchased.
The Company’s subsidiary, WEX Bank, is subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the FDIC and the Utah Department of Financial Institutions. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, WEX Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of WEX Bank’s assets, liabilities and certain off-balance sheet items. WEX Bank’s capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings and other factors. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can result in the initiation ofinitiate certain mandatory and possible additional discretionary actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could limit our business activities and have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.    
Qualitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require WEX Bank to maintain minimum amounts and ratios as defined in the regulations. As of June 30, 2018,March 31, 2019, WEX Bank met all the requirements to be deemed “well-capitalized” pursuant to FDIC regulation and for purposes of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act. See Part I – Item 1 – Note 17, Supplementary19, Supplemental Regulatory Capital Disclosure, for further information.
The Company has not declared any dividends on its common stock since it commenced trading on the NYSE on February 16, 2005.

Off–Balance Sheet Arrangements
Even though off-balance sheet arrangements are not recorded as liabilities under GAAP, such arrangements may potentially impact our liquidity, capital resources and results of operations. These arrangements serve a variety of business purposes, however the Company is not dependent on them to maintain its liquidity and capital resources. The Company isWe are not aware of any circumstances that are reasonably likely to cause the off-balance sheet arrangements to have a material adverse effect on liquidity and capital resources. As of June 30, 2018,March 31, 2019, we had posted letters of credit totaling approximately $53.7$53.5 million as collateral under the terms of our lease agreement for our corporate offices, other corporate matters and for payment processing activity at certain foreign subsidiaries.

Contractual Obligations
On January 17, 2018, the Company repriced the secured term loans under the 2016 Credit Agreement, which reduced the applicable interest rate margin for the Company’s tranche B term loan facility by 50 basis points for both LIBOR borrowings and base rate borrowings. The Company also increased the outstanding amounts under these tranche B term loans from $1.182 billion to $1.335 billion. All other contractual obligations are consistent with those disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10–K for the year ended December 31, 2017.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
As of January 1, 2018, we adopted the new revenue recognition standard using the modified retrospective approach.There were three primary impacts on the Company of adopting Topic 606.

Certain amounts paid to partners in our Fleet Solutions and Travel and Corporate Solutions segmentsWe have been determined to fall under the “cost to obtain a contract” guidance. As a result, these amounts, which were previously presented as a reduction of revenues, are now reflected within sales and marketing on our unaudited condensed consolidated statements of income. This change increased both reported revenues and expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 by approximately $16.2 million and $31.1 million, respectively.

Network fees paid to third party payment processing networks by all three of our segments, but primarily by our Travel and Corporate Solutions segment, are now presented as a reduction of revenues in our unaudited condensed consolidated statements of income. Prior to January 1, 2018, these amounts were included within service fees. This change reduced both reported revenues and expenses by approximately $4.4 million and $10.0 million, respectively, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018.

Certain costs to obtain a contract, such as sales commissions, are to be capitalized and amortized over the life of the customer relationship, with a practical expedient available for contracts under one year in duration. The vast majority of the Company’s commissions will continue to be expensed as incurred.

As of January 1, 2018, we recorded $0.6 million cumulative-effect adjustment, net of the associated tax effect, related to the deferral of capitalizable costs to obtain a contract within our Health and Employee Benefit Solutions segment. These commissions will be amortized to sales and marketing expense over a useful life which considers the contract term, our commission policy, renewal experience and the transfer of services to which the asset relates.
See Part I – Item 1 – Note 3, Revenue, to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of this Form 10–Q for further information regarding the adoption of the new revenue standard.
Other than this adoption, there have been no material changes to theour critical accounting policies and estimates discussed in our Annual Report on Form 10–K for the year ended December 31, 2017.2018.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management, with the participation of the principal executive officer and principal financial officer of WEX Inc. evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2018.March 31, 2019. “Disclosure controls and procedures” are controls and other procedures of a company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the company in the reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms.

its principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based
As disclosed in our Annual Report on their evaluation,Form 10–K, Item 9A, for the principal executive officer and principal financial officer of WEX Inc.year ended December 31, 2018, management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective at December 31, 2018. As of this date, management identified material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting relating to the following control deficiencies:
We did not maintain an effective control environment at our Brazilian subsidiary as evidenced by: (i) an insufficient number of personnel with an appropriate level of knowledge of the Company’s disclosureprocessing platforms and overall financial reporting process, and (ii) an insufficient number of personnel appropriately qualified to perform control activities.
We did not have control activities that were designed and operating effectively at our Brazilian subsidiary as evidenced by: (i) reconciliation of balance sheet accounts not being prepared consistently, (ii) lack of precision in review controls to identify all potential errors and (iii) lack of oversight and approval of journal entries.
We did not have sufficient monitoring activities in place to ensure effective corporate oversight and monitoring of control activities at our individually insignificant subsidiaries.
We are actively engaged in the implementation of a remediation plan to ensure that controls contributing to the material weaknesses are designed appropriately and will operate effectively. The remediation actions that we are taking and expect to take include the following:
Evaluating the sufficiency, experience, and training of our internal personnel at our Brazilian subsidiary and hiring additional qualified personnel or using external resources.
Implementing control activities at our Brazilian subsidiary that address relevant financial statement risks, including account reconciliations, variance analysis and journal entry procedures.
Implementing additional corporate monitoring activities over our individually insignificant subsidiaries.

Management believes that these efforts will effectively remediate the material weaknesses. However, the material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting will not be considered remediated until the new controls are fully implemented, in operation for a sufficient period of time, and tested and concluded by management to be designed and operating effectively. We cannot provide any assurance that these remediation efforts will be successful or that our internal control over financial reporting will be effective as a result of these efforts. Management will test, evaluate, and audit the implementation of these new processes and internal controls during fiscal 2019 to ascertain whether they are designed and operating effectively to provide reasonable assurance that they will prevent or detect a material error in the Company’s financial statements. Subject to the foregoing, management is working towards having these remediation efforts completed by the time we issue our December 31, 2019 financial statements. Management is committed to continuous improvement of our internal control over financial reporting and will continue to diligently review our financial reporting controls and procedures.
As described in Part I – Item 1 – Note 1, Basis of Presentation, of our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, the Company has revised prior period financial statements to correct for the errors resulting from the material weaknesses described above. As a result of the procedures were effective asperformed to correct these errors, we believe that the consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10–Q fairly present, in all material respects, our financial position, results of June 30, 2018.operations and cash flows for the periods presented in conformity with GAAP.
We believe that the remediation measures described above will strengthen our internal control over financial reporting and remediate the material weaknesses we have identified. We expect that our remediation efforts, including design, implementation and testing will continue throughout fiscal year 2019.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
ThereOther than the remediation efforts on the material weakness identified above, there has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended June 30, 2018,March 31, 2019, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
PART II
Item 1. Legal Proceedings.

We also were not involved in any material legal proceedings that were terminated during the secondfirst quarter of 2018.2019. However, from time to time, we are subject to legal proceedings and claims in the ordinary course of business. As of the date of this filing, the current estimate of a reasonably possible loss contingency from all legal proceedings is not material to the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations, cash flows or liquidity.
Item 1A. Risk Factors.

The risks described in our Annual Report on Form 10–K are not the only risks facing our Company.
