Fair Value Measurement

Authoritative accounting guidance on fair value measurements establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the ~~FASB issued ASU 2016-09,~~ ~~Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements~~inputs used in measuring fair value. These tiers include: Level 1, defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets; Level 2, defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable; and Level 3, defined as unobservable inputs for which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to ~~Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting. This ASU was intended~~develop its own assumptions.

As of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, we held certain investment assets and certain liabilities that are required to ~~simplify several aspects~~be measured at fair value on a recurring basis. These investments include money market funds and marketable equity securities where fair value is determined using quoted prices in active markets. Accordingly, the fair value measurements of these investments have been classified as Level 1 in the tables below. Investments for which we elected net asset value as a practical expedient for fair value and investments measured using the fair value measurement alternative are excluded from the tables below. Fair value for deferred compensation liabilities that are credited with deemed gains or losses of the ~~accounting for share-based payment transactions, including~~underlying hypothetical investments, primarily equity securities, have been classified as Level 1 in the ~~income tax consequences, classification~~tables below.

The following tables present assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis (in millions):

We have partnership interests in various private equity funds that are not included in the ~~Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements~~tables above. Our investments in private equity funds were $13.2 million and $15.0 million at March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively, of ~~Cash Flows.

The investments in private equity funds represent underlying investments in domestic and international markets across various industry sectors.

Generally, our investments in private equity funds are non-transferable or are subject to long holding periods, and withdrawals from the private equity firm partnerships are typically not permitted. The maximum risk of loss related to our private equity fund investments is limited to the carrying value of its investments in the entities.

We add new investment products such as mutual funds and exchange traded funds, through our subsidiary, ALPS Advisors, from time to time by providing the initial cash investments as seed capital. We consolidate seed capital investments when our ownership percentage exceeds 50%. Shares in those investments not owned by us are reflected as a redeemable noncontrolling interest on the condensed consolidated balance sheet.

Note 6—Goodwill

The change in carrying value of ~~a restricted-stock award or stock option exercise event relative to the deferred tax asset position established. The Company has elected to account for forfeitures~~goodwill as ~~they occur~~of and there was no material effect recorded upon adoption of this change. The Company has also excluded the excess tax benefits from the assumed proceeds available to repurchase shares in the computation of the Company’s diluted earnings per share for the three ~~and nine~~ months ended September 30, 2017, which had the effect of increasing the weighted average common stock equivalents. Prior to the adoption of ASU 2016-09, the Company included excess tax benefits in assessing whether common equivalent shares were dilutive in the Company’s calculations of weighted average dilutive shares under the treasury stock method. Presentation requirements for cash flows related to employee taxes paid for withheld shares had no impact to all periods presentedMarch 31, 2023 is as ~~such cash flows have historically been presented as financing activities.~~follows (in millions):

Adjustments to prior acquisitions		(0.5	)
Effect of foreign currency translation		27.1
Balance at March 31, 2023	$	8,889.6

~~In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04,~~ ~~Goodwill and Other (Topic 350) – Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment~~. ASU 2017-04 simplifies the subsequent measurement of goodwill by eliminating Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test. In computing the implied fair value of goodwill under Step 2, an entity had to perform procedures to determine the fair value at the impairment testing date of its assets and liabilities (including unrecognized assets and liabilities) following the procedure that would be required in determining the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination. As a result of ASU 2017-04, an entity should perform its goodwill impairment test by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount and then recognize an impairment charge, as necessary, for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting

~~(Unaudited)~~

unit’s fair value, not to exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. ASU 2017-04 is effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those years beginning after December 15, 2019, and early adoption is permitted for interim or annual goodwill impairment tests performed after January 1, 2017. The Company expects to adopt ASU 2017-04 for the Company’s goodwill impairment tests in 2017.

~~In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15,~~ ~~Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments~~. ASU 2016-15 addresses how certain cash receipts and cash payments are presented and classified in the statement of cash flows under Topic 230, Statement of Cash flow, and other Topics. ASU 2016-15 is effective for the Company for its first quarter of fiscal 2018 and the guidance requires application using a retrospective method. The impact of the Company’s adoption of ASU 2016-15 to the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements will be to reflect the presentation of debt prepayment or debt extinguishment costs as cash outflows for financing activities within the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows. This ASU is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

~~In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13,~~ ~~Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments~~. ASU 2016-13 requires companies to measure credit losses utilizing a methodology that reflects expected credit losses and requires a consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information to inform credit loss estimates. ASU 2016-13 is effective for the Company for its first quarter of fiscal 2020 and earlier adoption is permitted beginning in the first quarter of fiscal 2019. Application of the ASU is through a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the effective date. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the pending adoption of ASU 2016-13 on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. This ASU is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

~~In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02,~~ ~~Leases (Topic 842)~~. This ASU would require lessees to recognize the following for all leases (with the exception of short-term leases) at the commencement date; (i) a lease liability, which is a lessee’s obligation to make lease payments arising from a lease, measured on a discounted basis; and (ii) a right-of-use asset, which is an asset that represents the lessee’s right to use, or control the use of, a specified asset for the lease term. Lessor accounting is largely unchanged under the amendments of this ASU. Additional disclosures will be required to allow the user to assess the amount, timing and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leasing activities. A modified retrospective transition approach is required for leases existing at the time of adoption. ASU 2016-02 is effective for the Company for its first quarter of fiscal 2019 and earlier adoption is permitted. The impact of the Company’s adoption of ASU 2016-02 to the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements will be to recognize the majority of the Company’s operating lease commitments as operating lease liabilities and right-of-use assets upon adoption, which will result in a material increase in the assets and liabilities recorded on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. The Company is continuing its assessment, which may identify additional impacts this ASU will have on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and related disclosures and internal controls over financial reporting.

~~In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09,~~ ~~Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)~~. The objective of ASU 2014-09 is to clarify the principles for recognizing revenue by removing inconsistencies and weaknesses in revenue requirements; providing a more robust framework for addressing revenue issues; improving comparability of revenue recognition practices across entities, industries, jurisdictions and capital markets; and providing more useful information to users of financial statements through improved revenue disclosure requirements. On August 12, 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-14, deferring the effective date by one year for ASU 2014-09. ASU 2014-09 is effective for the Company for its first quarter of 2018, with early adoption permitted for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016. The new standard is required to be applied retrospectively to each prior reporting period presented or as a cumulative effect adjustment on the date of initial application.

~~Subsequent to the issuance of ASU 2014-09, the FASB has issued the following updates: ASU 2016-08,~~ ~~Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) – Principal versus Agent Considerations (Reporting Revenue Gross versus Net); ASU 2016-10,~~ ~~Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) – Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing; ASU 2016-12,~~ ~~Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) – Narrow-Scope Improvements and Practical Expedients~~ ~~and ASU 2016-20,~~ ~~Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) –Technical Corrections and Improvements to Topic 606. The amendments in these updates affect the guidance contained within ASU 2014-09.~~

portion of deferred revenue recorded in accordance with the current revenue standard will never be recognized as revenue upon adoption of the new revenue standard and instead will be part of the cumulative effect adjustment within retained earnings. The Company is also evaluating the timing and recognition of costs to obtain contracts with customers, such as commissions, under the new revenue standard. The Company is continuing to assess the new revenue standard along with industry trends and additional interpretive guidance and may adjust its interpretation and implementation plan accordingly.

Note 8—Stockholders’ Equity

Stock repurchase program

In July 2021, our Board of Directors authorized a stock repurchase program, which enabled us to repurchase up to $1 billion in the aggregate of our outstanding common stock on the open market or in privately negotiated transactions until the one-year anniversary of the Board’s authorization, unless earlier terminated by the Board. In July 2022, our Board of Directors authorized a new stock repurchase program, which also enables us to repurchase up to $1 billion in the aggregate of our outstanding common stock on the open market or in privately negotiated transactions. Our authority to repurchase shares under the program will continue until the one-year anniversary of the Board’s authorization, unless earlier terminated by the Board. During the three months ended March 31, 2023, we repurchased 2.3 million shares of common stock for approximately $134.7 million. During the three months ended March 31, 2022, we repurchased 2.3 million shares of common stock for approximately $170.9 million. We use the cost method to account for treasury stock purchases. Under the cost method, the price paid for the stock is charged to the treasury stock account.

Dividends

We paid a quarterly cash dividend of $0.20 per share of common stock in each of March 2023 and March 2022 totaling $50.7 million and $51.1 million, respectively.

Note 10—Revenues

We generate revenues primarily through our software-enabled services. Our software-enabled services are generally provided under contracts with initial terms of one to five years that require monthly or quarterly payments and are subject to automatic annual renewal at the end of the initial term unless terminated by either party. We also generate revenues by licensing our software to clients through either perpetual or term licenses and by selling maintenance services. We classify license revenues related to sales-based royalty arrangements as term license revenue. Maintenance services are generally provided under annually renewable contracts. Our pricing typically scales as a function of our clients’ assets under management, the complexity of asset classes managed, the volume of transactions and the level of service the client requires. Revenues from professional services consist mostly of services provided on a time and materials basis.

Deferred revenues primarily represent unrecognized fees billed or collected for maintenance and professional services. Deferred revenues are recognized as (or when) we perform under the contract. Deferred revenues are recorded on a net basis with contract assets at the contract level. Accordingly, as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, approximately $57.8 million and $68.0 million, respectively, of deferred revenue is presented net within contract assets arising from the same contracts. The amount of revenues recognized in the period that was included in the opening deferred revenues balance was $172.3 million and $106.1 million for the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~September 30, 2017~~March 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

As of March 31, 2023, revenue of approximately $977.1 million is expected to be recognized from remaining performance obligations for license, maintenance and related revenues, of which $479.2 million is expected to be recognized over the next twelve months.

We record revenue net of any taxes assessed by governmental authorities.

~~Note 4—Earnings per Share~~

Earnings per share (“EPS”) is calculated in accordance with the relevant standards. Basic EPS includes no dilution and is computed by dividing net income available to the Company’s common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common and common equivalent shares outstanding during the period. Common equivalent shares consist ofThe following table summarizes stock ~~options,~~option and stock appreciation rights (“SARs”), activity, as well as performance stock units (“PSUs”) and restricted stock units (“RSUs”) activity, for the three months ended March 31, 2023 (shares in millions):

Note 12—Income Taxes

The effective tax rate was 29.4% and ~~restricted~~27.0% for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The change in the effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2023 compared to the prior year was primarily due to a decrease in recognition of windfall tax benefits from stock awards ~~(“RSAs”) using~~in the ~~treasury stock method. Common equivalent shares are excluded~~current year and a change in the composition of income before income taxes from ~~the computation of diluted earnings~~foreign and domestic tax jurisdictions.

~~Note 6—Income Taxes~~

The effective tax rate was 14.5% and 19.1% for the three months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively, and the effective tax rate was 16.5% and 23.4% for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively. The change in the effective tax rate for the three months ended September 30, 2017 was primarily due to the recognition of windfall tax benefits from stock awards as a component of the income tax provision in the current quarter as well as the recognition of previously unrecognized tax benefits due to a lapse in the statute of limitations in the current quarter. ~~The change in the effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2017~~ ~~was primarily due to the recognition of windfall tax benefits from stock awards in the current year as a component of the income tax provision and the absence of~~ ~~the~~ unfavorable impact of a change in state apportionment on the Company’s domestic deferred tax liabilities as a result of the acquisition of Citigroup AIS in the first quarter of 2016, partially offset by the unfavorable impact from an increase in pre-tax income in the current year from domestic operations taxed at a high statutory rate.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2017, the Company received cash purchase price adjustments totaling $1.8 million related to the acquisitions of Conifer and GFS. This amount is reflected in “Cash paid for business acquisitions, net of cash acquired” for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows.

Legal Proceedings

In connection with recent legal proceedings related to the ~~Company~~ ongoing DST ERISA matters described below, including the arbitration awards, we have recorded an accrued liability of $51.5 million. Of this amount, $8.1 million and $43.4 million were recorded in 2022 and 2021, respectively, to Other income (expense), net on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income. Due to the inherent uncertainties associated with the resolution of these matters, the ultimate resolution of and any additional potential exposure related to these matters are uncertain at this time.

On September 1, 2017, a putative representative action was filed on behalf of the DST 401(k) Profit Sharing Plan (the “Plan”) in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, captioned Ferguson, et al v. Ruane Cunniff & Goldfarb Inc., et al. (“Ferguson”), naming as defendants DST, the Compensation Committee of DST’s Board of Directors, the Advisory Committee of the Plan and certain of DST’s present and/or ~~its business.~~

~~Note 9—Supplemental Guarantor Financial Statements~~

~~On July 8, 2015,~~former officers and directors (collectively the ~~Company issued $600.0 million aggregate principal amount~~“DST Defendants”), alleging breach of ~~5.875% Senior Notes due 2023 (the “Senior Notes”~~fiduciary duties and other violations of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act (“ERISA”). The ~~Senior Notes are jointly~~DST Defendants answered the operative complaint and ~~severally~~asserted crossclaims for contribution and/or indemnification against Ruane, Cunniff & Goldfarb Inc. (“Ruane”). On January 9, 2020, Ruane filed an amended answer to the amended complaint and ~~fully~~asserted crossclaims for contribution and/or indemnification against DST. On March 8, 2021, the Court entered an order denying without prejudice the plaintiffs’ (the “Ferguson Plaintiffs”) then-pending motions for leave to file a third amended complaint and ~~unconditionally guaranteed,~~for class certification, ordering that the parties address the effect, if any, on the Ferguson Plaintiffs’ motions of the March 4, 2021 decision by the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit Court in Cooper v. Ruane Cunniff & Goldfarb Inc. The Ferguson Plaintiffs renewed their motions for leave to file a third amended complaint and for class certification. On August 17, 2021, the Court entered an order certifying a mandatory, non-opt-out class under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 23(b)(1) that includes all plan participants other than certain plan fiduciaries. Arbitration Claimants, and the Canfield Plaintiffs and Mendon Plaintiffs, each as defined below, filed petitions under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 23(f) with the Second Circuit on August 30, 2021 and August 31, 2021, respectively, seeking interlocutory review of the Ferguson class certification order, which the Ferguson Plaintiffs and the DST Defendants opposed. The Second Circuit denied the Rule 23(f) petitions on May 24, 2022 and May 25, 2022, respectively. On February 4, 2022, the Ferguson Plaintiffs filed a third amended complaint, which included the class allegations. On March 7, 2022, the DST Defendants and Ruane each filed answers to the Ferguson Plaintiffs’ third amended complaint and reasserted their respective cross-claims. On August 23, 2021, the DST Defendants moved for a temporary restraining order and preliminary injunction against other proceedings, including the below-described arbitrations, which arise out of or relate to the allegations in Ferguson. Following briefing, on November 18, 2021, the Court granted the DST Defendants’ motion and entered a preliminary injunction enjoining the Ferguson class members, including Arbitration Claimants, from instituting new actions or litigating in arbitration or other proceedings against the DST Defendants matters arising out of or relating to the facts or transactions alleged in the Ferguson amended complaint. On November 18, 2021, the Court also ordered the DST Defendants and Arbitration Claimants to submit briefing regarding how the arbitration awards that have been entered against the DST Defendants should be handled in light of the Court’s class certification order and preliminary injunction.

On December 15, 2021, Arbitration Claimants and the Canfield Plaintiffs and Mendon Plaintiffs filed appeals of the Court’s preliminary injunction. On December 23, 2021, the DST Defendants, Arbitration Claimants, and the Ferguson Plaintiffs submitted briefs concerning the treatment of the arbitration awards that have been entered against the DST Defendants, and further briefing by the DST Defendants and Arbitration Claimants was submitted on January 26, 2022. On December 31, 2021, Arbitration Claimants moved by order to show cause for an immediate stay of the preliminary injunction pending their appeal to the Second Circuit. On January 3, 2022, the Court denied Arbitration Claimants’ motion for an immediate stay and ordered the DST Defendants to show cause as to why the Court should not issue a stay of the preliminary injunction pending appeal. On February 3, 2022, the Court denied Arbitration Claimants’ motion to stay the preliminary injunction pending appeal. In the same order, the Court held that it would determine the status of the arbitration awards already entered against DST at final judgment in the Ferguson action, either after trial or after settlement. On February 4, 2022, Arbitration Claimants filed a motion in the Second Circuit to stay the preliminary injunction pending their appeal of the Court’s preliminary injunction. On June 7, 2022, the Second Circuit denied Arbitration Claimants’ motion to stay the preliminary injunction pending appeal. On February 8, 2022, Arbitration Claimants and the Canfield Plaintiffs and Mendon Plaintiffs noticed an appeal of the Court’s February 3, 2022 order. The February 8, 2022 appeal was consolidated with the December 15, 2021 appeal of the preliminary injunction. On May 17, 2022, Arbitration Claimants and the Canfield Plaintiffs and Mendon Plaintiffs filed their opening brief in the consolidated appeals. The DST Defendants filed their answering brief on September 15, 2022, and the reply was filed on October 20, 2022. On April 20, 2023, the Second Circuit heard oral argument on the appeal. This appeal remains pending.

On July 10, 2020, the Ferguson Plaintiffs and the DST Defendants reached an agreement in principle to settle the class claims for $27 million, subject to the occurrence of certain conditions, including: Court certification of a “non‑opt-out” class in the case that includes as class members all participants of the Plan, Court approval of the settlement in accordance with applicable law and the satisfactory resolution of claims made by certain other litigants. On September 18, 2020, the parties submitted a letter to the Court disclosing that the Ferguson Plaintiffs and Ruane also had reached a settlement in principle, subject to Court approval. The Ferguson‌ Plaintiffs and the DST Defendants entered into a settlement agreement dated January 8, 2021 memorializing the terms of their proposed settlement, which was filed by the Ferguson Plaintiffs with the Court on the same date. On January 12, 2021, the Ferguson Plaintiffs moved for preliminary approval of the settlement with the DST Defendants, as well as preliminary approval of a separate settlement reached between the Ferguson Plaintiffs and Ruane. Arbitration Claimants and the U.S. Department of Labor (“DOL”) objected to various aspects of those settlements in filings dated January 15, 2021, January 27, 2021, and February 5, 2021. On August 17, 2021, the Court denied the Ferguson Plaintiffs’ motion for preliminary approval of the settlement on the terms proposed.

On November 10, 2022, the Ferguson parties filed a notice of settlement and joint motion to stay the proceedings. The notice informed the Court that the parties had reached a settlement in principle to settle the class claims (as discussed above, the class excludes certain plan fiduciaries), and the joint motion requested a stay while the parties sought to finalize their agreement and prepare an application for Court approval of the contemplated settlement. On November 18, 2022, the Court entered an order staying the Ferguson action for 30 days. On December 19, 2022, the Ferguson parties filed a joint motion to stay the proceedings for an additional 30 days, which the Court granted on January 9, 2023, staying the proceedings until February 8, 2023. On February 8, 2023, the Ferguson parties filed a joint motion to stay the proceedings for an additional 45 days, which the Court granted on February 21, 2023, staying the proceedings until April 7, 2023.

On April 5, 2023, Arbitration Claimants filed a motion to decertify the Rule 23(b)(1) class previously certified by the Court, or, in the alternative, to amend the class definition to remove Arbitration Claimants or permit them to opt out of the class. On April 7, 2023, the Ferguson parties filed a joint status report informing the Court that they had been working diligently with the DOL to finalize all necessary papers to document the settlement reached to resolve the Ferguson matter together with other related matters, and that the parties anticipated filing a final executed settlement agreement and supporting exhibits by April 14, 2023. On April 14, 2023, the DST Defendants informed the Court that, in response to a request from Arbitration Claimants, the Western District of Missouri had entered an injunction, as discussed below, enjoining DST from entering into or effectuating an agreement that settles, disposes of, interferes with, invalidates, satisfies, sets aside, alters, or otherwise compromises any of 55 judgments confirming arbitration awards entered by the Western District of Missouri on March 31, 2023. Following a status conference with the Court on April 24, 2023, the Court directed the parties to confer regarding settlement, and to submit a joint status report by May 3, 2023. The Court also held in abeyance the deadline to respond to Arbitration Claimants’ pending motion to decertify the class.

On September 28, 2018, a complaint was filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York captioned Robert Canfield, et al. v. SS&C Technologies Holdings, Inc., et al., on behalf of five individual plaintiffs (the “Canfield Plaintiffs”). On November 5, 2018, a similar complaint was filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York captioned Mark Mendon, et al. v. SS&C Technologies Holdings, Inc., et al., on behalf of two individual plaintiffs (the “Mendon Plaintiffs”). These complaints name as defendants SS&C, the DST Defendants, and Ruane. The underlying claim in each ~~case~~complaint is the same as in the above-described Ferguson matter, with the exception that these actions purport to be brought as individual actions and not putative class actions. On July 10, 2020, the Court entered an order granting the DST Defendants’ motion to disqualify plaintiffs’ counsel in the Canfield and Mendon actions. On March 17, 2021, the Court issued an opinion and order denying the DST Defendants’ motion to disqualify counsel from the arbitrations described below. On April 12, 2021, the Canfield Plaintiffs and Mendon Plaintiffs filed notices of voluntary dismissal dismissing their claims against Ruane with prejudice, which were entered by the

Court on April 13, 2021. On April 22, 2021, the DST Defendants filed motions to dismiss the Canfield and Mendon actions. Those motions were fully briefed on May 28, 2021. On November 19, 2021, the Court dismissed the Canfield and Mendon actions. On December 17, 2021, the Canfield Plaintiffs and Mendon Plaintiffs appealed the Court’s November 19, 2021 orders dismissing their respective actions to the Second Circuit. On May 17, 2022, the Canfield Plaintiffs and Mendon Plaintiffs filed their opening briefs in those appeals. The DST Defendants filed their answering briefs on September 15, 2022. The Canfield Plaintiffs and Mendon Plaintiffs filed their reply briefs on October 20, 2022. On April 20, 2023, the Second Circuit heard oral argument on the appeals. These appeals remain pending.

On October 8, 2019, a substantially similar action to the above-described Ferguson, Canfield, Mendon and below-described arbitration matters captioned Scalia v. Ruane, Cunniff & Goldfarb Inc. was filed by the DOL in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York naming as defendants DST, the Advisory Committee of the Plan, the Compensation Committee of DST’s Board of Directors and certain of DST’s former officers and directors, and alleging that the DST Defendants breached fiduciary duties in violation of ERISA in connection with the Plan. The complaint also names as defendants Ruane and its former Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Robert D. Goldfarb. In the complaint, the DOL seeks disgorgement, damages and any other appropriate injunctive or equitable relief. The DST Defendants moved to dismiss the complaint on December 4, 2020 on the ground that the DOL’s complaint is time-barred. Other defendants also filed motions to dismiss on the same and other grounds. Briefing on the motions to dismiss was completed on February 5, 2021. On March 28, 2022, the court denied Defendants’ motions to dismiss, and Martin J. Walsh was substituted for Eugene Scalia as the plaintiff. On April 11, 2022, the DST Defendants answered the DOL’s complaint.

DST, the Advisory Committee of the Plan, and the Compensation Committee of DST’s Board of Directors have been named in 579 substantially similar individual demands for arbitration to date, by former and current DST employees demanding arbitration under the DST Employee Arbitration Program and Agreement (the “Arbitration Claimants”). The underlying claim in each is the same as in the above-described Ferguson matter, with the exception that the arbitrations purport to be brought as individual actions. On November 24, 2021, in light of the preliminary injunction entered in Ferguson discussed above, the American Arbitration Association ceased administration of the arbitrations brought by members of the Ferguson class, which includes all of the Arbitration Claimants with the exception of certain former Plan fiduciaries. As of November 24, 2021, 557 demands for arbitration had been submitted to the American Arbitration Association (the “AAA”). As of the date on which the preliminary injunction was entered, those individual arbitrations were at various stages depending on the particular proceeding. Certain of those arbitrations had resulted in awards against DST and others had resulted in decisions finding no liability as against DST. Many of those decisions were subject to ~~certain customary release provisions, by substantially all wholly-owned domestic subsidiaries~~further appeal within the AAA. Certain of the ~~Company that guarantee~~arbitration proceedings had been resolved in whole or in part by settlement. Since November 24, 2021, the ~~Company’s Amended Senior Secured Credit Agreement (collectively “Guarantors”). All~~AAA has administered only those arbitration proceedings associated with claimants who are not members of the ~~Guarantors are 100% owned by the Company. All other subsidiaries~~Ferguson class, certain of which have resulted in awards against DST. Between August 20, 2021 and November 17, 2021, counsel for Arbitration Claimants filed 177 motions to confirm certain of the ~~Company, either direct or indirect, do not guarantee~~arbitration awards. DST filed responses to those motions. Between October 4 and December 22, 2021, the ~~Senior Notes (“Non-Guarantors”). The Guarantors also unconditionally guarantee~~Western District of Missouri issued orders confirming those 177 arbitration awards and entering judgments against DST. DST appealed those judgments to the ~~Amended Senior Secured Credit Agreement. There are no significant restrictions~~Eighth Circuit. On November 20, 2021, DST requested that the Eighth Circuit stay the pending appeals in light of the preliminary injunction entered in Ferguson. On December 3, 2021, the Eighth Circuit ordered the parties to brief DST’s stay request, and on January 3, 2022, the Eighth Circuit declined to stay the briefing schedule on the ~~ability~~pending appeals and consolidated those appeals. DST filed its opening brief in the Eighth Circuit on March 24, 2022. Arbitration Claimants filed their opposition brief on April 26, 2022, and DST filed its reply brief on May 18, 2022. The Eighth Circuit heard oral argument on June 14, 2022. On November 28, 2022, the Eighth Circuit vacated the judgments confirming the 177 arbitration awards and remanded those actions to the Western District of Missouri to determine whether the district court has subject-matter jurisdiction and whether the district court should transfer the cases to the Southern District of New York. On December 14, 2022, the parties submitted simultaneous briefing to the Western District of Missouri regarding transfer.‌ On March 31, 2023, the Western District of Missouri issued an order finding that it had subject-matter jurisdiction over 55 of the ~~Company or~~177 confirmation actions, and confirmed the 55 arbitration awards in those actions and entered judgments against DST. The court dismissed the other 122 on the ground that it lacked subject-matter jurisdiction. The court further denied DST’s motion to transfer any of the ~~subsidiaries~~177 confirmation actions to the Southern District of New York. On April 28, 2023, DST appealed these judgments to the Eighth Circuit. These appeals remain pending.

On April 10, 2023, Arbitration Claimants filed in the Western District of Missouri an emergency motion seeking a temporary restraining order and preliminary injunction prohibiting DST from settling or attempting to settle in the Ferguson action any of the 55 Western District of Missouri judgments confirming arbitration awards, without the consent of those Arbitration Claimants and their attorneys. On April 10, 2023, the Western District of Missouri entered a preliminary injunction stating that ~~are Guarantors to obtain funds from its subsidiaries by dividend or loan. During~~“[i]n each of the ~~three months ended~~55 cases in which this Court has subject matter jurisdiction and entered an order on March 31, ~~2017,~~2023 confirming an arbitration award, the ~~Company added certain U.S. subsidiaries as Guarantors~~Court hereby enjoins DST or anyone on behalf of DST from entering into or effectuating an agreement that settles, disposes of, interferes with, invalidates, satisfies, sets aside, alters, or otherwise compromises each such judgment, without the express written consent of each Confirmation Plaintiff in whose favor judgment was entered by this Court.” On April 12, 2023, DST appealed the preliminary injunction to the ~~Senior Notes. The condensed consolidating balance sheet~~Eighth Circuit. This appeal remains pending. On April 27, 2023, DST filed a motion in the Western District of Missouri seeking a stay of its preliminary injunction pending appeal.

We continue to vigorously defend these matters.

On November 11, 2020, DST, the Compensation Committee of DST’s Board of Directors, and the Advisory Committee of the Plan as ~~of December 31, 2016 below reflects~~plaintiffs filed a complaint in the ~~addition of these entities as Guarantor Subsidiaries.~~

~~Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations~~

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

This ~~Management's~~Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, or MD&A, is intended to provide readers of our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements with the perspectives of management. It presents, in narrative form, information regarding our financial condition, results of operations, liquidity and certain other factors that may affect our future results. It should be read in conjunction with our ~~2016~~2022 Form 10-K and the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Form 10-Q. We use the term organic to refer to the businesses and operations that are included in the comparable prior year period on a constant currency basis. Organic excludes the impact of any business which we acquired for the time period which would impact the comparable prior year period.

The COVID-19 pandemic and ongoing macroeconomic conditions, such as increases in interest rates, inflation and changes in foreign currency exchange rates, could have impacts on our results that are uncertain and, in many respects, outside our control. The situations remain dynamic and subject to rapid and possibly material change, which ultimately could result in material negative effects on our business and results of operations. We will continue to evaluate the nature and extent of the potential impacts to our business, consolidated results of operations, liquidity and capital resources.

Critical Accounting Policies

Certain of our accounting policies require the application of significant judgment by our management, and such judgments are reflected in the amounts reported in our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. In applying these policies, our management uses its judgment to determine the appropriate assumptions to be used in the determination of estimates. Those estimates are based on our historical experience, terms of existing contracts, management’s observation of trends in the industry, information provided by our clients and information available from other outside sources, as appropriate. Actual results may differ significantly from the estimates contained in our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. There have been no material changes to our critical accounting estimates and assumptions or the judgments affecting the application of those estimates and assumptions since the filing of our ~~2016~~2022 Form 10-K. Our critical accounting policies are described in the ~~2016~~2022 Form 10-K and include:

Revenues

We derive our ~~revenue~~revenues from two sources: ~~recurring~~software-enabled services revenues and ~~to a lesser degree, non-recurring revenues. Recurring revenues consist of software-enabled services and~~license, maintenance and ~~term licenses.~~related revenues. As a general matter, fluctuations in our software-enabled services revenues are attributable to the number of new software-enabled services clients as well as total assets under management in our clients’ portfolios and the number of outsourced transactions provided to our existing clients. Software-enabled services revenues also fluctuate as a result of reimbursements received for “out-of-pocket” expenses, such as postage and telecommunications charges, which are recorded as revenues on an accrual basis. Because these additional revenues are offset by the reimbursable expenses incurred, there is no impact on gross profit, operating income and net income, however the reimbursements billed and expenses incurred can lead to fluctuations in revenues, cost of revenues and gross margin percentage each period. License, maintenance and related revenues consist primarily of term and perpetual license fees, maintenance fees and professional services. Maintenance revenues vary based on customer retention ~~the number of perpetual licenses~~ and on the annual increases in fees, which are generally tied to the consumer price ~~index, while term license revenues vary based on the rate by which we add or lose clients over time. Non-recurring revenues consist of~~index. License and professional services ~~and perpetual license fees and~~revenues tend to fluctuate based on the number of new licensing clients, the timing and terms of contract renewals and demand for consulting services.

~~Revenues~~Our results of operations below include the results of our recent acquisitions from the date which they were acquired, including, Blue Prism and Hubwise in March 2022, MineralWare in May 2022, O’Shares in June 2022, Tier1 in August 2022 and CFO in December 2022.

Three Months Ended ~~September 30, 2017~~March 31, 2023 and ~~2016~~2022. Our revenues increased $67.7 million, or 5.2%, primarily due to revenues ~~related to~~associated with our 2022 acquisitions, which ~~included Wells Fargo’s Global Fund Services business (“GFS”) and Conifer Financial Services (“Conifer”) in the fourth quarter of 2016, which~~ contributed ~~$20.9~~$63.2 million in revenues net of a reduction of $0.5 million in revenues related to the loss of sales to these businesses. Additionally, organic revenues increased $12.7 million, of which approximately $7.2 million was the result of the impact of the fair value adjustment for acquired deferred revenue on the periods. The change in organic revenues also reflects a reduction of $5.9 million related to fund administration service clients that were acquired through the Citigroup Alternative Investor Services business (“Citigroup AIS”) acquisition who had indicated they were terminating their contracts prior to the acquisition closing. The final purchase price of the Citigroup AIS business acquisition included an adjustment for these terminated clients. The remaining increase in organic revenues was primarily due to a continued increase in demand for our fund administration services. Our revenues also increased $1.4 million due to the favorable impact from foreign currency translation, which resulted primarily from the weakness of the U.S. dollar relative to the Euro and ~~Canadian dollar. Recurring revenues increased primarily due to the acquisitions, which added revenues of $20.4 million, as well as from~~ an increase in organic revenues of ~~$17.7~~$24.2 million ~~of which $4.6 million was~~driven by strength in the result of the impact of the fair value adjustment of acquired deferred revenue on the periods. The organic recurring revenue increase was primarily due to an increase in software-enabled services revenues within ourSS&C GlobeOp fund administration business as well as an increase in license revenues from term licenses. Non-recurring revenues decreased primarily due to a decrease in organic revenues of $5.0 million, which is net of an increase of approximately $2.7 million resulting from the impact of the fair value adjustment of acquired deferred revenue, partially offset by our acquisitions, which contributed $0.5 million. The organic non-recurring revenue decrease was due to decreases of $4.2 million and ~~$0.8 million in professional services~~Global Investor and ~~perpetual licenses revenues, respectively.~~

~~Nine Months Ended September 30, 2017 and 2016.~~ Our revenues increased primarily due to revenues related to our acquisitions, which included GFS and Conifer in the fourth quarter of 2016 and Citigroup AIS in the first quarter of 2016, which contributed $99.1 million in revenues, net of a reduction of $2.2 million in revenues related to the loss of sales to theseDistribution Solutions businesses. Additionally, organic revenues increased $58.8 million, of which approximately $32.6 million was the result of the impact of the fair value adjustment for acquired deferred revenue on the periods. The change in organic revenues also reflects a reduction of $13.3 million related to fund administration service clients that were acquired through the Citigroup AIS acquisition who had indicated they were terminating their contracts prior to the acquisition closing. The final purchase price of the Citigroup AIS business acquisition included an adjustment for these terminated clients. The remaining increase in organic revenues was primarily due to a continued increase in demand for our fund administration services. These increases were partially offset by the unfavorable impact from foreign currency translation of ~~$1.5 million, which resulted primarily from the strength of the U.S. dollar relative to the British pound. Recurring~~$19.7 million. Software-enabled services revenues increased $29.0 million, or 2.7%, primarily due to ~~the acquisitions, which added revenues of $97.8 million, as well as from~~ an increase in organic revenues of ~~$67.1~~$32.8 million and acquisitions, which added $12.5 million in revenues, partially offset by the unfavorable impact from foreign currency translation of ~~which $26.0~~$16.3 million. License, maintenance and related revenues increased $38.7 million, ~~was the result of the impact of the fair value adjustment of acquired deferred revenue on the periods. The organic recurring revenue increase was~~or 18.4%, primarily due to ~~an increase~~acquisitions, which added $50.7 million in ~~software-enabled services~~ revenues, ~~within our fund administration business as well as an increase in license revenues from term licenses revenues. Non-recurring revenues decreased primarily due to~~partially offset by a decrease in organic revenues of $8.3 million, which is net of an increase of approximately $6.6 million resulting from the impact of the fair value adjustment of acquired deferred revenue, partially offset by our acquisitions, which contributed $1.3 million. The organic non-recurring revenue decrease was due to decreases of $4.3$8.6 million and ~~$4.0 million in perpetual licenses and professional services revenues, respectively.~~the unfavorable impact from foreign currency translation of $3.4 million.

Cost of Revenues

Cost of ~~recurring~~software-enabled services revenues consists primarily of costs related to personnel utilized in ~~servicing~~providing our software-enabled services ~~and maintenance contracts~~ and amortization of intangible assets. Cost of ~~non-recurring~~license, maintenance and other related revenues consists primarily of the ~~cost~~costs related to personnel utilized in servicing our maintenance contracts and to provide implementation, conversion and training services to our software licensees, as well as system integration and custom programming consulting services and amortization of intangible assets.

Operating Expenses

Selling and marketing expenses consist primarily of the personnel costs associated with the selling and marketing of our products, including salaries, commissions and travel and entertainment. Such expenses also include amortization of intangible assets,

the cost of branch sales offices, trade shows and marketing and promotional materials. Research and development expenses consist primarily of personnel costs attributable to the enhancement of existing products and the development of new software products. General and administrative expenses consist primarily of personnel costs related to management, accounting and finance, information management, human resources and administration and associated overhead costs, as well as fees for professional services.

The decrease in total operating expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2017 was primarily due to a decrease in organic operating expenses of $7.7 million, partially offset by our acquisitions, which included GFS and Conifer, which added expenses of $3.4 million as well as the unfavorable impact from foreign currency translation of $0.4 million, which resulted primarily from the weakness of the U.S. dollar relative to the Canadian dollar. Organic operating expenses decreased due to lower personnel-related costs, stock-based compensation, bad debt expense and independent contractor costs partially offset by higher professional fees. Total operatingOperating expenses increased ~~slightly for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 as compared to the same period in 2016~~$28.9 million, or 8.8%, primarily due to our acquisitions, which ~~included Citi, GFS and Conifer, which~~ added expenses of ~~$15.0 million,~~$39.7 million. This increase was partially offset by ~~decreases in organic operating expenses of $12.7 million as well as~~ the favorable impact from foreign currency translation, which decreased expenses by $8.1 million, and a decrease of ~~$1.9~~$2.7 million ~~which resulted from the strength of the U.S. dollar relative to the British pound.

Professional fees in the three months ended March 31, 2022 were elevated due to our acquisition of Blue Prism.

Comparison of the Three ~~and Nine~~ Months Ended ~~September 30, 2017~~March 31, 2023 and ~~2016~~2022 for Interest, Taxes and Other

Interest expense, net. We had net interest expense of ~~$26.3~~$111.9 million ~~and $81.6 million~~ for ~~the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, respectively, compared to $31.6 million and $97.6 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016, respectively.~~ ~~The decrease in interest expense for 2017 as compared to 2016 for both periods presented~~ was primarily due to a lower average debt balance and a lower average interest rate, as a result of the March 2017 Amendment to our Credit Agreement. These facilities are discussed further in “Liquidity and Capital Resources”.

~~Other (expense) income, net~~. We had other expense, net of $2.5 million and $3.8 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, respectively, compared to other income, net of $2.7 million and $0.8 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016, respectively. Other (expense) income, net consists primarily of foreign currency transaction gains and losses for all periods presented except for the nine months ended September 30, 2016, which consisted primarily of a gain from a legal settlement.

~~Loss on extinguishment of debt. We recorded a $2.3 million loss on extinguishment of debt in~~ the three months ended March 31, ~~2017~~2023 compared to $49.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022. The increase in ~~connection with~~interest expense, net for 2023 as compared to 2022, is due to a higher average interest rate on debt and higher average debt balances. We had an average interest rate of 6.21% and 3.11%, respectively, for the ~~amendment~~three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022.

Other income (expense), net. We had other income, net of ~~our senior secured credit facility. The loss on early extinguishment~~$5.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 compared to other expense, net of ~~debt includes~~$9.0 million for the ~~write-off~~three months ended March 31, 2022. For the three months ended March 31, 2023, other income, net consisted primarily of ~~a portion~~dividend income of ~~the unamortized capitalized financing fees~~$10.2 million, partially offset by losses of $6.1 million related to the ~~senior secured credit facility~~fair value adjustments on assets held for ~~amounts accounted~~sale. For the three months ended March 31, 2022, other expense, net consisted primarily of foreign currency translation losses of $9.7 million.

Equity in earnings of unconsolidated affiliates, net. We had equity in earnings of unconsolidated affiliates, net of $5.7 million and $1.3 million for ~~as a debt extinguishment, as well as~~ the ~~new financing fees~~three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022. Our equity in earnings of unconsolidated affiliates, net in 2023 is primarily related to a $4.8 million adjustment to increase the ~~senior secured credit facility for amounts accounted for as a debt modification.~~ carrying value of one of our investments.

Provision for income taxes. The following table sets forth the provision for income taxes (dollars in ~~thousands)~~millions) and effective tax rates for the periods indicated:


	Three Months Ended September 30,						Nine Months Ended September 30,						Three Months Ended March 31,
	2017			2016			2017			2016			2023			2022
Provision for income taxes	$	10,905		$	9,163		$	32,400		$	22,648		$	52.5		$	63.5
Effective tax rate		15	%		19	%		17	%		23	%		29.4	%		27.0	%

Our ~~September 30, 2017 and 2016~~ effective tax rates for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022 differ from the statutory rate of 21.0% primarily due to the ~~effect~~composition of ~~our~~income before income taxes from foreign ~~operations.~~and domestic tax jurisdictions, foreign income that is being taxed in the U.S. offset by foreign tax credits that are being limited and the recognition of windfall tax benefits from stock awards. The ~~decrease~~change in the effective tax rate for the three months ended ~~September 30, 2017~~ March 31, 2023 compared to the prior year was primarily due to ~~the recognition of windfall tax benefits from stock awards in the current quarter as~~ a ~~component of the income tax provision as well as the recognition of previously unrecognized tax benefits due to a lapse in the statute of limitations in the current quarter. The~~ decrease in ~~the effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 was primarily due to the~~ recognition of windfall tax benefits from stock awards in the current year asand a ~~component of the income tax provision and the absence of~~ ~~the~~ ~~unfavorable impact of a~~proportionate change in ~~state apportionment on our~~the composition of income before income taxes from foreign and domestic ~~deferred~~ tax liabilities as a result of the acquisition of Citigroup AIS in the first quarter of 2016, partially offset by the unfavorable impact from an increase in pre-tax income from domestic operations taxed at a high statutory rate. Our effective tax rate includes the effect of operations outside the United States, which historically have been taxed at rates lower than the U.S. statutory rate.jurisdictions. While we have income from multiple foreign sources, the majority of our non-U.S. operations are in ~~Canada, India and~~ the United Kingdom ~~where we~~and India. We anticipate the statutory tax rates in 2023 to be ~~26.5%, 34.6%~~23.5% in the United Kingdom and ~~19.3%, respectively,~~approximately 33.0% in ~~2017. The consolidated expected effective tax rate for the year ended December 31, 2017 is forecasted to be between 18% and 19%.~~India. A future ~~proportionate~~ change in the composition of income before income taxes from foreign and domestic tax jurisdictions could impact our periodic effective tax rate.

On August 16, 2022, the Inflation Reduction Act was signed into law, which includes a 15% corporate alternative minimum tax and a 1% excise tax on stock repurchases. The provisions were effective January 1, 2023 and were immaterial to our financial results, financial position and cash flows. The 1% excise tax on stock repurchases is included as a cost to acquire treasury stock.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our principal cash requirements are to finance the costs of our operations pending the billing and collection of client receivables, to fund payments with respect to our indebtedness, to invest in research and development, to acquire complementary businesses or assets, to repurchase shares of our common stock and to pay dividends on our common stock. We expect our cash on hand, cash flows from operations and cash available under ~~the~~our Credit Agreement to provide sufficient liquidity to fund our current obligations, projected working capital requirements and capital spending for at least the next twelve months.

~~In 2017,~~During each of the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, we paid a quarterly cash ~~dividends~~dividend of ~~$0.0625~~$0.20 per share of common stock totaling $50.7 million and $51.1 million, respectively.

Client funds obligations include our transfer agency client balances invested overnight as well as our contractual obligations to remit funds to satisfy client pharmacy claim obligations and are recorded on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet when incurred, generally after a claim has been processed by us. Our contractual obligations to remit funds to satisfy client obligations are primarily sourced by funds held on behalf of clients. We had $429.2 million of client funds obligations at March ~~15, 2017~~31, 2023.

Cash flows from operating, investing and ~~June 15, 2017 and $0.07 per share~~financing activities, as reflected in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of ~~common stock on September 15, 2017 to stockholders of record as of~~Cash Flows, are summarized in the ~~close of business on March 1, 2017, June 1, 2017 and September 1, 2017, respectively, totaling $39.9 million.~~following table (in millions):


	Three Months Ended March 31,
Net cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash provided by (used in):	2023			2022			Change From Prior Year
Operating activities	$	254.8		$	183.5		$	71.3
Investing activities		(49.8	)		(1,583.5	)		1,533.7
Financing activities		(755.3	)		1,240.9			(1,996.2	)
Effect of exchange rate changes on cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash		0.9			(4.5	)		5.4
Net decrease in cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash	$	(549.4	)	$	(163.6	)	$	(385.8	)

Our cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash at September 30, 2017 were $103.9 million, a decrease of $15.8 million from $119.7 million at December 31, 2016. The decrease in cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash is primarily due to net repayments of debt, payment of dividends and capital expenditures. These decreases were partially offset by cash provided by operations and proceeds from stock option exercises.

Net cash provided by operating activities was ~~$307.1~~$254.8 million for the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~September 30, 2017.~~March 31, 2023. Cash provided by operating activities primarily resulted from net income of ~~$163.5~~$126.2 million adjusted for non-cash items of ~~$196.2~~$201.4 million, partially offset by changes in our working capital accounts (excluding the effect of acquisitions) totaling ~~$52.7~~$72.8 million. The changes in our working capital accounts were driven by ~~a decrease~~decreases in accrued expenses and ~~deferred revenue,~~an increase in accounts receivable, partially offset by a decrease in prepaid expenses, an increase in ~~accounts~~deferred revenue and changes in income tax prepaid and payable. The decrease in accrued expenses was primarily due to the payment of annual employee bonuses in the first quarter of 2017. The decrease in deferred revenue was primarily due to an increase in the number of new license contracts and contract renewals that qualified for up-front revenue recognition as well as the decline in deferred revenue associated with the completion of professional services installations of our software.2023. The increase in accounts ~~payable~~receivable was primarily due to the billing of annual maintenance fees, which typically occurs in the first quarter of each year. The change in income taxes prepaid and payable is primarily driven by the timing of tax payments.

Investing activities used net cash of ~~$36.1~~$49.8 million for the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~September 30, 2017,~~March 31, 2023, primarily related to ~~$29.8 million in capital expenditures and $8.2~~$42.6 million in capitalized software development costs and $10.5 million in capital expenditures, partially offset by ~~cash received~~collection of ~~$1.8~~other non-current receivables of $2.4 million ~~related to purchase price adjustments for prior acquisitions.~~and proceeds from the sales and maturities of investments of $0.9 million.

Financing activities used net cash of ~~$290.5~~$755.3 million for the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~September 30, 2017,~~March 31, 2023, primarily representing a net ~~repayments~~decrease in client fund obligations of ~~debt totaling $292.8~~$541.9 million, ~~$39.9~~$133.3 million of purchases of common stock for treasury, $50.7 million in quarterly dividends paid and ~~$4.1~~$44.6 million ~~in withholding taxes paid related to equity award~~of net ~~share settlements,~~debt repayments. These expenditures were partially offset by proceeds of ~~$46.3~~$15.3 million from stock option exercises.

We have made a permanent reinvestment determination in certain non-U.S. operations that have historically generated positive operating cash flows. At ~~September 30, 2017,~~March 31, 2023, we held approximately ~~$80.4~~$203.8 million in cash and cash equivalents at non-U.S. subsidiaries where we had made such a determination and in turn no provision for ~~U.S.~~ income taxes had been made. At ~~September 30, 2017,~~March 31, 2023, we held approximately ~~$74.6~~$109.9 million in cash that was available to our foreign borrowers under our senior secured credit facility and will be used to facilitate debt servicing of those entities.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We have no off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to investors.

Senior Secured Credit Facilities and Senior Notes

~~On March 2, 2017 (“Amendment Effective Date”), we entered into an amendment (the “Amendment”) to~~The table below provides a summary of the key terms of our ~~senior secured credit agreement (“Amended~~ Senior Secured Credit ~~Agreement”) dated July 8, 2015. Pursuant to the Amendment, the highest (non-default) interest rate margin applicable to Term Loan A was reduced from LIBOR plus 2.75% to LIBOR plus 1.75%,~~Facilities and the highest (non-default) interest rate margin applicable to Term Loan B was reduced from LIBOR plus 3.25% to LIBOR plus 2.25%. The LIBOR “floor” was also amended for the Term Loan A and the Term Loan B to be 0%. N~~o changes were made to the financial covenants, outstanding principal amounts or the scheduled amortization.~~Senior Notes:

~~The Amendment was evaluated in accordance with FASB Accounting Standards Codification 470-50,~~ ~~Debt-Modifications and Extinguishments, for modification and extinguishment accounting.~~ The Company accounted the debt re-pricing as a debt modification with respect to amounts that remained obligations of the same lender in the syndicate with minor changes in cash flows and as a debt extinguishment with respect to amounts that were obligations of lenders that exited the syndicate or remained in the syndicate but experienced a change in cash flows of greater than 10%. ~~See Note 2 to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion of debt.~~

The Company recorded a $2.3 million loss on extinguishment of debt in the three months ended March 31, 2017 in connection with the Amendment. The loss on early extinguishment of debt includes the write-off of a portion of the unamortized capitalized financing fees related to the s~~enior secured credit facility~~ ~~for amounts accounted for as a debt extinguishment, as well as new financing fees related to the~~ ~~Amendment~~ ~~for amounts accounted for as a debt modification.~~

In addition, the Amended Senior Secured Credit Agreement~~ ~~has a revolving credit facility with a five year term available for borrowings by SS&C with $150 million in available commitments, or the Revolving Credit Facility, of~~ ~~which $0.0 million~~ and $94.0 million was outstanding as of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively. The Revolving Credit Facility also contains a $25 million letter of credit sub-facility, of which $0.9 million and $0.6 million was outstanding as of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively.

We are required to make scheduled quarterly payments of 0.25% of the original principal amount of the Term Loan B-1 and Term Loan B-2, with the balance due and payable on the seventh anniversary of its incurrence. We are required to make scheduled quarterly payments of 1.25% of the original principal amount of the Term Loan A-1 and Term Loan A-2 until September 30, 2017 and quarterly payments of 2.50% of the original principal amount of the Term Loan A-1 and Term Loan A-2 from December 31, 2017 until June 30, 2020 with the balance due and payable on the fifth anniversary of the incurrence thereof. No amortization is required under the Revolving Credit Facility.

Our obligations under the Term Loans are guaranteed by (i) ~~Holdings and each of~~ our existing and future U.S. wholly-owned restricted subsidiaries, in the case of the Term B-3 Loan, ~~B-1~~Term B-5 Loan, Term B-6 Loan and the Revolving Credit Facility and (ii) ~~Holdings, SS&C and each of~~ our existing and future wholly-owned restricted subsidiaries, in the case of the Term B-4 Loan ~~A-1, the~~and Term ~~Loan A-2 and the Term Loan B-2.~~B-7 Loan.

The obligations of the U.S. loan parties under the ~~Amended Senior Secured Credit Agreement~~amended senior secured credit facility are secured by substantially all of the assets of such persons (subject to customary exceptions and limitations), including a pledge of all of the capital stock of

substantially all of the U.S. wholly-owned restricted subsidiaries of such persons (with customary exceptions and limitations) and 65% of the capital stock of certain foreign restricted subsidiaries of such persons (with customary exceptions and limitations). All obligations of the non-U.S. loan parties under the ~~Amended Senior Secured Credit Agreement~~amended senior secured credit facility are secured by substantially all of ~~Holdings’~~our and the other guarantors’ assets (subject to customary exceptions and limitations), including a pledge of all of the capital stock of substantially all of ~~Holdings’~~our wholly-owned restricted subsidiaries (with customary exceptions and limitations).

The ~~Amended~~ ~~Senior Secured Credit Agreement~~ amended senior secured credit facility includes negative covenants that, among other things and subject to certain thresholds and exceptions, limit our ability and the ability of our restricted subsidiaries to incur debt or liens, make investments (including in the form of loans and acquisitions), merge, liquidate or dissolve, sell property and assets, including capital stock of our subsidiaries, pay dividends on our capital stock or redeem, repurchase or retire our capital stock, alter the business we conduct, amend, prepay, redeem or purchase subordinated debt, or engage in transactions with our affiliates. The amended senior secured credit facility also contains customary representations and warranties, affirmative covenants and events of default, subject to customary thresholds and exceptions. In addition, the ~~Amended~~ ~~Senior Secured Credit Agreement~~ amended senior secured credit facility contains a financial covenant for the benefit of the Revolving Credit Facility requiring us to maintain a minimum consolidated net ~~senior~~ secured leverage ratio. In addition, under the ~~Amended~~ ~~Senior Secured Credit Agreement~~,amended senior secured credit facility, certain defaults under agreements governing other material indebtedness could result in an event of default under the ~~Amended~~ ~~Senior Secured Credit Agreement~~,amended senior secured credit facility, in which case the lenders could elect to accelerate payments under the ~~Amended~~ ~~Senior Secured Credit Agreement~~ amended senior secured credit facility and terminate any commitments they have to provide future borrowings. As of ~~September 30, 2017,~~March 31, 2023, we were in compliance with ~~the~~all financial and non-financial covenants.

~~Senior Notes~~

~~On July 8, 2015, in connection with the acquisition of Advent, we issued $600.0 million aggregate principal amount of 5.875% Senior Notes due 2023.~~ The Senior Notes are guaranteed, jointly and severally, by SS&C Holdings and ~~each~~all of ~~our wholly-owned~~its existing and future domestic restricted subsidiaries that ~~borrows~~guarantee our existing senior secured credit facilities or ~~guarantees obligations under the Amended Senior Secured Credit Agreement. The guarantees are full and unconditional and joint and several.~~certain other indebtedness. The Senior Notes are unsecured senior obligations that are equal in right of ~~payments~~payment to all of our existing and future senior ~~debt, including the Amended Senior Secured Credit Agreement.~~

~~On April 20, 2016, we commenced an offer to exchange for~~unsecured indebtedness. Interest on the Senior Notes ~~new notes identical in all material respects to the Senior Notes, except that the new notes were registered under the Securities Act~~is payable on March 30 and September 30 of ~~1933. The exchange offer expired on May 18, 2016 and 100% of the Senior Notes were exchanged for the new notes.~~each year.

At any time ~~after July 15, 2018,~~and from time to time, we may, at our option, redeem some or all of the Senior Notes, in whole or in part, at the redemption prices set forth in the ~~indenture governing~~following table, expressed as a percentage of the ~~Senior Notes~~principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption ~~date. At~~date:


Redemption Date	Price
On or after March 30, 2023		102.750	%
On or after March 30, 2024		101.375	%
March 30, 2025 and thereafter		100.000	%

We may also, from time to time in our sole discretion, purchase, redeem, or retire any ~~time on or before July 15, 2018, we may redeem all or any portion of the notes at 100% of their principal amount, plus a “make whole” premium calculated pursuant to the indenture governing the~~outstanding Senior Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the redemption date. In addition, prior to July 15, 2018, we may redeem up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount of the Senior Notes at a redemption price equal to 105.875% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption date, with the net proceeds of onethrough tender offers, in privately negotiated or ~~more equity offerings.~~open market transactions, or otherwise.

The indenture governing the Senior Notes contains a number of covenants that restrict, subject to certain thresholds and exceptions, our ability and the ability of our domestic restricted subsidiaries to incur debt or liens, make certain investments, pay dividends, dispose of certain assets, ~~engage in mergers~~ or ~~acquisitions or engage in~~enter into transactions with ~~our~~its affiliates. Any event of default under the amended senior secured credit facility that leads to an acceleration of those amounts due also results in a default under the indenture governing the Senior Notes.

~~As of September 30, 2017, there were $600.0 million in principal amount of Senior Notes outstanding.~~22

Covenant Compliance

Under the ~~Amended~~ ~~Senior Secured~~Revolving Credit ~~Agreement,~~Facility portion of the amended senior secured credit facility, we are required to satisfy and maintain a specified financial ~~ratio.~~ratio at the end of each fiscal quarter if the sum of (i) outstanding amount of all loans under the Revolving Credit Facility and (ii) all non-cash collateralized letters of credit issued under the Revolving Credit Facility in excess of $20 million is equal to or greater than 30% of the total commitments under the Revolving Credit Facility. Our ~~continued~~ ability to meet this financial ratio can be affected by events beyond our control, and we cannot assure you that we will ~~continue to~~ meet this ratio. Any breach of ~~these covenants~~this covenant could result in an event of default under the ~~Amended~~ ~~Senior Secured Credit Agreement.~~amended senior secured credit facility. Upon the occurrence of any event of default under the ~~Amended~~ ~~Senior Secured Credit Agreement,~~amended senior secured credit facility, the lenders could elect to declare all amounts outstanding under the ~~Amended~~ ~~Senior Secured Credit Agreement~~amended senior secured credit facility to be immediately due and payable and terminate all commitments to extend further credit. Any default and subsequent acceleration of payments under the amended senior secured credit facility would have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, financial position and cash flows. Additionally, under the amended senior secured credit facility, our ability to engage in activities such as incurring additional indebtedness, making investments and paying dividends is also tied to baskets and ratios based on Consolidated EBITDA.

Consolidated EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure used in key financial covenants contained in the ~~Amended~~ ~~Senior Secured Credit Agreement,~~amended senior secured credit facility, which is athe material facility supporting our capital structure and providing liquidity to our business. Consolidated EBITDA is defined as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”), further adjusted to exclude unusual items and other adjustments permitted in calculating covenant compliance under the ~~Amended~~ ~~Senior Secured Credit Agreement.~~amended senior secured credit facility. We believe that the inclusion of supplementary adjustments to EBITDA applied in presenting Consolidated EBITDA is appropriate to provide additional information to investors to demonstrate compliance with the specified financial ratio and other financial condition tests contained in the ~~Amended~~ ~~Senior Secured Credit Agreement.~~amended senior secured credit facility.

Management uses Consolidated EBITDA to gauge the costs of our capital structure on a day-to-day basis when full financial statements are unavailable. Management further believes that providing this information allows our investors greater transparency and a better understanding of our ability to meet our debt service obligations and make capital expenditures.

~~Any breach of covenants in the~~ ~~Amended~~ Senior Secured Credit Agreement that are tied to ratios based on Consolidated EBITDA could result in an event of default under that agreement, in which case the lenders could elect to declare all amounts borrowed immediately due and payable and to terminate any commitments they have to provide further borrowings. Any default and subsequent acceleration of payments under the ~~Amended~~ ~~Senior Secured Credit Agreement would have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, financial position and cash flows. Additionally, under the~~ ~~Amended~~ Senior Secured Credit Agreement, our ability to engage in activities such as incurring additional indebtedness, making investments and paying dividends is also tied to ratios based on Consolidated EBITDA.

Consolidated EBITDA does not represent net income or cash flow from operations as those terms are defined by generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, and does not necessarily indicate whether cash flows will be sufficient to fund cash needs. Further, the ~~Amended~~ ~~Senior Secured Credit Agreement~~amended senior secured credit facility requires that Consolidated EBITDA be calculated for the most recent four fiscal quarters. As a result, the measure can be disproportionately affected by a particularly strong or weak quarter. Further, it may not be comparable to the measure for any subsequent four-quarter period or any complete fiscal year.

Consolidated EBITDA is not a recognized measurement under GAAP and investors should not consider Consolidated EBITDA as a substitute for measures of our financial performance and liquidity as determined in accordance with GAAP, such as net income, operating income or net cash provided by operating activities. Because other companies may calculate Consolidated EBITDA differently than we do, Consolidated EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. Consolidated EBITDA has other limitations as an analytical tool, when compared to the use of net income, which is the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, including:

•

~~Consolidated EBITDA does not reflect the provision of income tax expense in our various jurisdictions;~~

Consolidated EBITDA does not reflect the significant interest expense we incur as a result of our debt leverage;

•

Consolidated EBITDA does not reflect the provision of income tax expense in our various jurisdictions;

•

Consolidated EBITDA does not reflect any attribution of costs to our operations related to our investments and capital expenditures through depreciation and amortization charges;

•

Consolidated EBITDA does not reflect the cost of compensation we provide to our employees in the form of ~~stock option~~stock-based awards; ~~and~~

•

Consolidated EBITDA does not reflect the equity in earnings of unconsolidated affiliates; and

•

Consolidated EBITDA excludes expenses and income that are permitted to be excluded per the terms of our ~~Amended Senior Secured Credit Agreement,~~amended senior secured credit facility, but which others may believe are normal expenses for the operation of a business.

The following is a reconciliation of net income to Consolidated EBITDA attributable to SS&C common stockholders as defined in our ~~Amended~~ ~~Senior Secured Credit Agreement.~~amended senior secured credit facility.

(1)

Calculated as the ratio of consolidated net secured funded indebtedness, net of cash and cash equivalents, to Consolidated EBITDA, as defined by the Amended Senior Secured Credit Agreement, for the period of four consecutive fiscal quarters ended on the measurement date. Consolidated net secured funded indebtedness is comprised of indebtedness for borrowed money, letters of credit, deferred purchase price obligations and capital lease obligations, all of which is secured by liens on our property.

~~Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements~~

~~In November 2016, the~~ ~~Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”)~~ ~~issued~~ ~~Accounting Standards Update (��ASU”)~~ ~~No. 2016-18,~~ ~~Statement of Cash Flows: Restricted Cash. This ASU provides guidance on the classification of restricted cash in the statement of cash flows.~~ ~~This ASU requires that restricted cash be included within~~ cash and cash equivalents, ~~when reconciling~~excluding $130.2 million of cash and cash equivalents held at DomaniRx, to Consolidated EBITDA, as defined by the ~~beginning-of-period and end-of-period total amounts shown~~amended senior secured credit facility, for the period of four consecutive fiscal quarters ended on the ~~statement~~measurement date. Consolidated net secured funded indebtedness is comprised of ~~cash flows.~~indebtedness for borrowed money, letters of credit, deferred purchase price obligations and capital lease obligations, all of which is secured by liens on our property.

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU ~~2016-18 is effective~~2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting. ASU 2020-04 provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying U.S. GAAP if certain criteria are met to contracts, hedging relationships and other transactions that reference LIBOR or another reference rate expected to be discontinued. In January 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-01, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Scope. The update provides additional optional guidance on the transition from LIBOR to include derivative instruments that use an interest rate for margining, discounting or contract price alignment. The standard will ease, if warranted, the requirements for accounting for the ~~Company for its first quarter~~future effects of ~~fiscal 2018. Early adoption is permitted~~the rate reform. Additionally, in December 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-06, Reference Rate Reform: Deferral of the Sunset Date

of Topic 848, which deferred the sunset date of Topic 848 from December 31, 2022 to December 31, 2024 to align with the amended cessation date of LIBOR. A substantial portion of our indebtedness bears interest at variable interest rates, primarily based on USD-LIBOR. We continue to monitor the impact the discontinuance of LIBOR or another reference rate will have on our contracts, hedging relationships and other transactions. We will apply the guidance ~~requires application using a retrospective method.~~ to impacted transactions during the transition period. The ~~Company has early adopted ASU 2016-18, which did~~adoption of this standard does not have a material impact on ~~the Company’s~~our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In ~~March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09,~~ ~~Compensation – Stock Compensation(Topic 718):Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting~~. This ASU is intended to simplify several aspects of the accounting for share-based payment transactions, including the income tax consequences, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities, and classification on the statement of cash flows. ASU 2016-09 is effective for the Company for its first quarter of fiscal 2017. Effective January 1, 2017, excess tax benefits will be prospectively reported as an operating activity in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.As the Company has applied this guidance prospectively as of January 1, 2017, excess tax benefits for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 will not be adjusted and continue to be reported in financing activities in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. As a result of the adoption, the Company recognized discrete tax benefits of $2.7 million and $12.8 million in the provision for income taxes line of the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 related to excess tax benefits upon vesting of a restricted-stock award or stock option exercise event relative to the deferred tax asset position established. The Company has elected to account for forfeitures as they occur and there was no material effect recorded upon adoption of this change. The Company has also excluded the excess tax benefits from the assumed proceeds available to repurchase shares in the computation of the Company’s diluted earnings per share for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, which had the effect of increasing the weighted average common stock equivalents. Prior to the adoption of ASU 2016-09, the Company included excess tax benefits in assessing whether common equivalent shares were dilutive in the Company’s calculations of weighted average dilutive shares under the treasury stock method. Presentation requirements for cash flows related to employee taxes paid for withheld shares had no impact to all periods presented as such cash flows have historically been presented as financing activities.

~~In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04,~~ ~~Goodwill and Other (Topic 350) – Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment. ASU 2017-04 simplifies the subsequent measurement of goodwill by eliminating Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test.~~

In computing the implied fair value of goodwill under Step 2, an entity had to perform procedures to determine the fair value at the impairment testing date of its assets and liabilities (including unrecognized assets and liabilities) following the procedure that would be required in determining the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination. As a result of ASU 2017-04, an entity should perform its goodwill impairment test by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount and then recognize an impairment charge, as necessary, for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value, not to exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. ASU 2017-04 is effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those years beginning after December 15, 2019, and early adoption is permitted for interim or annual goodwill impairment tests performed after January 1, 2017. The Company expects to adopt ASU 2017-04 for the Company’s goodwill impairment tests in 2017.

~~In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15,~~ ~~Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments. ASU 2016-15 addresses how certain cash receipts and cash payments are presented and classified in the statement of cash flows under Topic 230, Statement of Cash flow, and other Topics.~~ ~~ASU 2016-15 is effective for the Company for its first quarter of fiscal 2018 and the guidance requires application using a retrospective method.~~ The impact of the Company’s adoption of ASU 2016-15 to the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements will be to reflect the presentation of debt prepayment or debt extinguishment costs as cash outflows for financing activities within the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows. This ASU is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

~~In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09,~~ ~~Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)~~. The objective of ASU 2014-09 is to clarify the principles for recognizing revenue by removing inconsistencies and weaknesses in revenue requirements; providing a more robust framework for addressing revenue issues; improving comparability of revenue recognition practices across entities, industries, jurisdictions and capital markets; and providing more useful information to users of financial statements through improved revenue disclosure requirements. On August 12, 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-14, deferring the effective date by one year for ASU 2014-09. ASU 2014-09 is effective for the Company for its first quarter of 2018, with early adoption permitted for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016. The new standard is required to be applied retrospectively to each prior reporting period presented or retrospectively with the cumulative effect of initially applying it recognized at the date of initial application.

~~Subsequent to the issuance of ASU 2014-09, the FASB has issued the following updates: ASU 2016-08,~~ ~~Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) – Principal versus Agent Considerations (Reporting Revenue Gross versus Net); ASU 2016-10,~~ ~~Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) – Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing; and ASU 2016-12,~~ ~~Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) – Narrow-Scope Improvements and Practical Expedients. The amendments in these updates affect the guidance contained within ASU 2014-09.~~

The Company plans to adopt the new revenue standard using the modified retrospective approach when it becomes effective for the Company in the first quarter of fiscal 2018. The Company is continuing to evaluate the impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows, and associated processes, systems and internal controls. Based upon the Company’s continued assessments of the new revenue standard, the Company would be required to recognize the license component of term license arrangements upfront and the associated maintenance component over the contract period. Under the current revenue standard, the Company recognizes both the term license and maintenance revenues ratably over the contract period. In addition, a portion of deferred revenue recorded in accordance with the current revenue standard will never be recognized as revenue upon adoption of the new revenue standard and instead will be part of the cumulative effect adjustment within retained earnings. The Company is also evaluating the timing and recognition of costs to obtain contracts with customers, such as commissions, under the new revenue standard. The Company is continuing to assess the new revenue standard along with industry trends and additional interpretive guidance and may adjust its interpretation and implementation plan accordingly.

We do not use derivative financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes. We have generally invested our available cash in short-term, highly liquid financial instruments, having initial maturities of three months or less. When necessary, we have borrowed to fund acquisitions.

We derive service revenues from investment earnings related to cash balances maintained in bank accounts on which we are the agent for clients. The balances maintained in the bank accounts will fluctuate. For the three months ended March 31, 2023, we had average daily cash balances of approximately $2,237.7 million maintained in such accounts. We estimate that a 100 basis point change in the interest earnings rate would equal approximately $10.5 million of net income, net of income taxes, on an annual basis. The effect of changes in interest rates attributable to earnings derived from cash balances we hold for clients is offset by changes in interest rates on our variable debt.

At ~~September 30, 2017,~~March 31, 2023, we had total ~~debt of $2,266.8 million, including $1,666.8 million of~~ variable interest rate ~~debt.~~debt of approximately $5,084.7 million. As of ~~September 30, 2017,~~March 31, 2023, a 1%100 basis point increase in interest rates would result in an increase in interest expense of approximately ~~$16.7~~$50.8 million per year.

We have exposure to equity price risk as a result of our investments in equity securities. Equity price risk results from changes in the level or volatility of equity prices which affect the value of equity securities or instruments that derive their value from such securities or indexes. The fair value of our investments that are subject to equity price risk as of March 31, 2023 was approximately $56.0 million. The impact of a 10% change in fair value of these investments would have been approximately $4.2 million to net income, net of income taxes. Changes in equity values of our investments could have a material effect on our results of operations and our financial position.

During the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~September 30, 2017,~~March 31, 2023, approximately ~~27%~~30% of our revenues were from clients located outside the United States. A portion of the revenues from clients located outside the United States is denominated in foreign currencies, the majority being the ~~Canadian dollar.~~British pound. While revenues and expenses of our foreign operations are primarily denominated in their respective local currencies, some subsidiaries do enter into certain transactions in currencies that are different from their local currency. These transactions consist primarily of cross-currency intercompany balances and trade receivables and payables. As a result of these transactions, we have exposure to changes in foreign currency exchange rates that result in foreign currency transaction gains and losses, which we report in other income (expense). These ~~outstanding~~ amounts were not material for the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~September 30, 2017.~~March 31, 2023. The amount of these balances can fluctuate in the future as we bill customers and buy products or services in currencies other than our functional currency, which could increase our exposure to foreign currency exchange rates. We continue to monitor our exposure to foreign exchange rates ~~as a result~~because of our acquisitions and changes in our operations. We do not enter into any market risk sensitive instruments for trading purposes.

The foregoing risk management discussion and the effect thereof are forward-looking statements. Actual results in the future may differ materially from these projected results due to actual developments in global financial markets. The analytical methods used by us to assess and minimize risk discussed above should not be considered projections of future events or losses.

Our management, with the participation of our chief executive officer and chief financial officer (our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, respectively), evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of ~~September 30, 2017.~~March 31, 2023. The term “disclosure controls and procedures,” as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or Exchange Act, means controls and other procedures of a company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required

to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the company’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives, and management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Based on the evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of ~~September 30, 2017,~~March 31, 2023, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that, as of such date, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level.

There have not been any changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during the fiscal quarter ended ~~September 30, 2017,~~March 31, 2023 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

The information regarding certain legal proceedings in which we are involved as set forth in Note 814 – Commitments and Contingencies of the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q) is incorporated by reference into this Item 1.

In addition, we are involved in various other legal proceedings arising in the normal course of our businesses. At this time, we do not believe any material losses under these claims to be probable. While the ultimate outcome of such legal proceedings cannot be predicted with certainty, it is in the opinion of management, after consultation with legal counsel, that the final outcome in such proceedings, in the aggregate, would not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

The exhibits listed in the Exhibit Index immediately preceding such exhibits are filed as part of this Report.

Attached as Exhibit 101 to this report are the following formatted in XBRL (Extensible Business Reporting Language): (i) Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets at September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, (ii) Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, (iii) Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016 and (iv) Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.* Filed herewith
