We do so through services focused on October 30, 2019reducing medical cost and formedimproving payment accuracy for the purposepayors of effecting a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or morebusinesses.
On July 12, 2020, Churchill entered intohealthcare, which are health insurers, self-insured employers and other health plan sponsors (typically through their health plan administrators), and, indirectly, the Merger Agreement by and among First Merger Sub, Second Merger Sub, Holdings, and MultiPlan Parent. On October 8, 2020,plan members who are the Merger Agreement was consummated and the Transactions were completed. In connection with the Transactions, Churchill changed its name to MultiPlan Corporation and the New York Stock Exchange ticker symbols for its Class A common stock and warrants to "MPLN" and "MPLN.WS", respectively.
The Transactions were accounted for as a reverse recapitalization. Under this methodconsumers of accounting, Churchill has been treated as the acquired company for financial reporting purposes. This determination was primarily based on our existing stockholders being the majority stockholders and holding majority voting power in the combined company, our senior management comprising the majority of the senior management of the combined company, and our ongoing operations comprising the ongoing operations of the combined company. Accordingly, for accounting purposes, the Transactions were treated as the equivalent of MultiPlan issuing shares for the net assets of Churchill, accompanied by a recapitalization. The net assets of Churchill were recognized at fair value (which were consistent with carrying value), with no goodwill or other intangible assets recorded. Operations prior to the Transactions in these financial statements are those of Polaris and the retained earnings of Polaris has been carried forward after the Transactions. Earnings per share calculations for all periods prior to the Transactions have been retrospectively adjusted for the equivalent number of shares reflecting the exchange ratio established in the Transactions.healthcare services.

COVID-19
COVID-19 has negatively impacted our business, results of operations and financial condition during 2020 andsince the three and six months ended June 30, 2021. Effects from COVID-19 began to impact our business in first quarter of 2020 withas various federal, state, and local governments and private entities mandatingmandated, and in some cases continue to mandate, restrictions on travel, restrictions on public gatherings, closure of non-essential commerce, and shelter in place orders. The Company experienced an approximately 4.6% decline in revenues for the year ended December 31, 2020 compared to 2019 primarily due to reduced volume from customers as a result of restrictions on elective medical procedures and non-essential medical services. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2021,2022, the Company'sCompany’s revenues continue to be negatively impacted butas a result of the medical charges received on non-COVID-19 claims from customers not yet reaching pre-COVID-19 pandemic levels due to fewer elective medical procedures and non-essential medical services. Such negative impacts, however, have been to a lesser extent compared to the same period in 2020 and 2021 as vaccination rates have increased and most restrictions on medical services have been lifted. The extent of the ultimate impact of COVID-19 will depend on the severity and duration of the evolving pandemic. Future developments remain uncertain, including the number of confirmed cases, the emergence of highly contagious variants, and any actions taken by federal, state and local governments such as economic relief efforts, as well as U.S. and global economies, consumer behavior and healthcare utilization patterns.
Segment Reporting
Operating segments are defined as components of an entity for which separate financial information is available and regularly reviewed by the chief operating decision maker. The Company manages its operations as a single segment for the

Due to the nature of our arrangements, certain estimates may be constrained if it is probable that a significant reversal of revenue will occur when the uncertainty is resolved. For our percentage of savings contracts, portions of revenue that is recognized and collected in a reporting period may be returned or credited in subsequent periods. These credits are the result of payers not utilizing the discounts that were initially calculated, or differences between the Company’s estimates of savings achieved for a customer and the amounts self-reported in the following month by that same customer. Significant judgment is used in constraining estimates of variable consideration, and is based upon both client-specific and aggregated factors that include historical billing and adjustment data, client contract terms, and performance guarantees. We update our estimates at the end of each reporting period as additional information becomes available. There have not been any material changes to estimates of variable consideration for performance obligations satisfied prior to the six months ended June 30, 2021.

2022.
The timing of payments from customers from time to time generates contract assets or contract liabilities, however these amounts are immaterial in all periods presented.
Stock-Based Compensation
The Company's awards are granted via the 2020 Omnibus Incentive Plan in the form of Employee RS, Employee RSUs, Employee NQSOs (together "employee awards"), and Director RSUs.
Stock-based compensation is measured at the grant date based on the fair value of the award and is recognized as compensation expense for employee awards, net of forfeitures, over the applicable requisite service period of the stock award using the straight-line method for awards with only service conditions. The compensation expense for Director RSUs is recognized in the same period(s) and in the same manner as if the Company had paid cash in exchange for the goods or services instead of a share-based award.
We determine the fair value of the Employee RS, Employee RSUs and Director RSUs with time based vesting using the value on our common stock on the date of the grant.
We determine the fair value of Employee NQSOs using a Black-Scholes option model while taking into consideration the price of the Company's Class A common stock and vesting conditions.
Certain assumptions used in the model are subjective and require significant management judgment, and include the (i) risk-free rate, (ii) volatility, and (iii) expected term. Changes in these assumptions can materially affect the estimate of the grant date fair value of the Employee NQSOs and ultimately compensation expenses. The Company has historically been a private company and lacked sufficient company-specific historical and implied volatility information. Therefore, it estimated its expected stock volatility based on the implied volatility of our publicly traded financial instruments and the historical volatility of a publicly traded set of peer companies. The risk-free interest rate is based on the interpolated 5 and 7 year U.S. Treasury constant maturity yields.
See Note 7 Stock-Based Compensation below for further information.
New Accounting Pronouncements
We consider the applicability and impact of all ASUs and applicable authoritative guidance. The ASUs not listed below were assessed and determined to be either not applicable or are expected to have an immaterial impact on our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.
New Accounting Pronouncements Recently Adopted
ASU 2020-06, Debt — Debt With Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging — Contracts in Entity's Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity's Own Equity. On August 5, 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, Debt — Debt With Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging — Contracts in Entity's Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity's Own Equity. The amendments simplify the accounting for certain financial instruments with characteristics of liabilities and equity, including convertible instruments and contracts on an entity's own equity. The standard is effective for public companies for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2021. Early adoption is permitted. The Company adopted this new accounting standard on January 1, 2021 on a modified retrospective basis. As a result, comparative financial information has not been restated and continues to be reported under the accounting standards in effect for those periods. The adoption of the standard resulted in a reclassification to long-term debt of $297.9 million, corresponding to the equity component of $233.9 million previously recorded in additional paid-in capital, the deferred taxes related to the equity component as of January 1, 2021 of $70.1 million, and a cumulative-effect adjustment to increase retained earnings as of January 1, 2021 by $6.0 million, which reflects the elimination of the discount amortization related to the equity component in prior periods, net of deferred taxes. See Note 3 Long-Term Debt below for additional information on the impact of this adoption.

ASU 2020-04 and 2021-01, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848) and Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Scope. In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848), which provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying GAAP to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions affected by reference rate reform if certain criteria are met. The amendments apply only to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions that reference LIBOR or another reference rate expected to be discontinued because of reference rate reform. In January 2021, the FASB issued ASU No. 2021-01, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Scope, which expanded the scope of Topic 848 to include derivative instruments impacted by discounting transition. ASU 2020-04 and ASU 2021-01 are effective for all entities through December 31, 2022. The expedients and exceptions provided by the amendments do not apply to contract modifications and hedging relationships entered into or evaluated after December 31, 2022, except for hedging transactions as of December 31, 2022, that an entity has elected certain optional expedients for and that are retained through the end of the hedging relationship. The Company has a term loan and a revolving credit loan for which the interest rates are indexed on the LIBOR. The guidance did not have an impact on our financial position, results of operations or disclosures at transition, but we will continue to evaluate its impact on contracts and hedging relationships modified on or before December 31, 2022.

5.Fair Value Measurements
Fair value measurements are based on the premise that fair value represents an exit price representing the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. As such, fair value is a market-based measurement that should be determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. As a basis for considering such assumptions, the following three-tier fair value hierarchy has been used in determining the inputs used in measuring fair value:
Level 1 — Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities on the reporting date.
Level 2 — Inputs, other than quoted prices in active markets (Level 1), that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly.
Level 3 — Unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which require the entity to develop its own assumptions
Financial instruments
Certain financial instruments which are not measured at fair value on a recurring basis include cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable, which approximate fair value due to their short-term nature. The financial instrument that potentially subjects the Company to concentrations of credit risk consists primarily of accounts receivable.
We estimateCash and cash equivalents as of June 30, 2022 included money market funds of $150.0 million, which were valued based on Level 1 measurements using quoted prices in active markets for identical assets. Our cash and cash equivalents as of December 31, 2021 did not include money market funds.

As of December 31, 2021, we estimated the fair value of long-term debt, including current maturities of finance lease obligations, based on estimates using present value techniques that arewere significantly affected by the assumptions used concerning the amount and timing of estimated future cash flows and discount rates that reflect varying degrees of risk. Assumptions includeincluded interest rates currently available for instruments with similar terms as well as the five, seven, and eight-year Treasury bill rates. As such, this iswas considered a Level 2 fair value measurement.

Recurring fair value measurements
The Private Placement Warrants and unvested founder sharesUnvested Founder Shares are measured at fair value on a recurring basis. The fair value of these instruments was determined based on significant inputs not observable in the market which would represent a level 3 measurement within the fair value hierarchy. The Company uses an option pricing simulation to estimate the fair value of these instruments.
Non-recurring fair value measurements
We also measure certain non-financial assets at fair value on a nonrecurring basis, primarily goodwill and long-lived tangible and intangible assets, in connection with periodic evaluations for potential impairment. We estimate the fair value of these assets using primarily unobservable inputs and, as such, these are considered Level 3 fair value measurements. There were no material impairment charges for these assets for fiscal years 20212022 and 2020.2021.
Our non-marketable equity securities using the measurement alternative are adjusted to fair value on a non-recurring basis. Adjustments are made when observable transactions for identical or similar investments of the same issuer occur, or due to impairment. These securities are classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy because we estimate the value based on valuation methods using the observable transaction price at the transaction date. At June 30, 2022, the carrying amount of these alternative investments, recorded under Other assets, net in the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets, was $15.0 million. There were no write-ups due to observable price changes or write-downs due to impairment in the current period.

Uncertainty Relating to the COVID-19 Pandemic
As discussed above in Note 1 General Information and Basis of Accounting of the notes to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report, COVID-19 has negatively impacted our business, results of operations and financial condition during 2020 andsince the six months ended June 30, 2021.
We temporarily closed allfirst quarter of our offices and restricted travel due to concern for our employees' health and safety and also in compliance with state orders. Most of our approximately 2,300 employees continue to work remotely. Other than these
21


modifications, we have not experienced any material changes to our operations including receiving and processing transactions with our customers as a result of COVID-19.2020.
Effects from COVID-19 began to impact our business in first quarter 2020 with various federal, state, and local governments and private entities mandating restrictions on travel, restrictions on public gatherings, closure of non-essential commerce, and shelter in place orders. The Company experienced an approximately 4.6% declineWe temporarily closed all of our offices and restricted travel in revenues for the year ended December 31, 2020 compared to 2019 primarilyand 2021 due to reduced volume fromconcern for our employees’ health and safety and also in compliance with state orders. Most of our approximately 2,500 employees continue to work remotely. Other than these modifications, we have not experienced any material changes to our operations including receiving and processing transactions with our customers as a result of restrictionsCOVID-19.
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company’s revenues continue to be negatively impacted as a result of the medical charges received on non-COVID-19 claims from customers not yet reaching pre-COVID-19 pandemic levels due to fewer elective medical procedures and non-essential medical services. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company's revenues continue to be negatively impacted, butSuch negative impacts, however, are to a lesser extent compared to the same period in 2020 and 2021, as vaccination rates have increased and most restrictions on medical services have been lifted. The extent of the ultimate impact of COVID-19 will depend on the severity and duration of the evolving pandemic. Future developments remain uncertain, including the number of confirmed cases, the emergence of highly contagious variants, and any actions taken by federal, state and local governments such as economic relief efforts, as well as U.S. and global economies, consumer behavior and healthcare utilization patterns.
In connection with the COVID-19 pandemic, the CARES Act was enacted on March 27, 2020 and included certain changes to corporate income taxes. Specifically, the CARES Act provided numerous tax provisions and other stimulus measures, including temporary changes regarding the prior and future utilization of net operating losses, temporary changes to the prior and future limitations on interest deductions, temporary suspension of certain payment requirements for the employer portion of Social Security taxes, technical corrections from prior tax legislation for tax depreciation of certain qualified improvement property, and the creation of certain payroll tax credits associated with the retention of employees. We assessed these impacts and noted the largest impact is due to the tax law change related to the interest disallowance rules retroactive to 2019. The other aspects of the CARES Act did not have a material effect on us.
Factors Affecting Our Results of Operations
Medical Cost Savings -
Our business and revenues are driven by the ability to lower medical costs through claims savings for our customers. The medical charges of those claims can influence our ability to generate claim savings.
The following table presents the medical charges processed and the potential savings identified for the periods presented:
Six Months Ended June 30,Six Months Ended June 30,Change

(in millions)(in millions)20222021

Potential medical cost savings(2)(3)
$11,196.9 $10,522.4 6.4 %
While the medical charges processed on claims received from customers have increased, the medical charges on our non-COVID-19 services have not yet returned to pre-pandemic levels as a result of fewer elective medical procedures and non-essential medical services. A portion of this increase is the result of medical charges and related savings for COVID-19 services, such as COVID-19 testing, treatment, and vaccines, which were higher in the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 as compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2021.
_____________________________
(1)Medical charges processed represent the aggregate dollar amount of claims processed by our cost management and payment accuracy solutions in the period presented. The dollar amount of the claim for purposes of this calculation is the dollar amount of the claim prior to any reductions that may be made as a result of the claim being processed by our cost management solutions. Medical charges processed excludesexclude medical charges processed by HST and DHP.DHP in both time periods.
(2)Potential medical cost savings represent the aggregate amount of potential savings in dollars identified by our cost management and payment accuracy solutions in the period presented. Since certain of our fees are based on the amount of savings achieved by our customers, and our customers are the final adjudicator of the claims and may choose not to reduce claims or reduce claims by only a portion of the potential savings identified, potential medical cost savings may not directly correlate with the amount of fees earned in connection with the processing of such claims. Potential medical cost savings exclude potential medical cost savings identified by HST and DHP.DHP in both time periods.
(3)Changes to previously reported medical charges processed and potential medical cost savings are due to claim development such as client claim resubmissions or cancellation of claims. Examples of these changes include, but are not limited to, adjudication changes, billing changes, and elimination of claims that were later determined to be invalid. In second quarter 2021, we introduced a change in reporting methodology to exclude from the current and prior periods certain claims, the inclusion of which distorts the underlying trends in our core claim processing activities. We believe this change in methodology improves the comparability of current and prior periods.

Our medical charges processed and potential medical cost savings figures may not be directly comparable from period to period due to the completion and integration of acquisitions made in a particular period.
Components of Results of Operations
Revenues
We generate revenues from several sources including: (i) Network-Based Services that process claims at a discount compared to billed fee-for-service rates and by using an extensive network, (ii) Analytics-Based Services that use our leading and proprietary information technology platform to offer customers solutions to reduce medical costs, (ii) Network-Based Services that process claims at a discount compared to billed fee-for-service rates and by using an extensive network and (iii) Payment and Revenue Integrity Services that use data, technology, and clinical expertise to identify improper, unnecessary and excessive charges. Payors typically compensate us through either a PSAV achieved or a PEPM rate.
Costs of Services (exclusive of depreciation and amortization of intangible assets)
Costs of services (exclusive of depreciation and amortization of intangible assets) consist of all costs specifically associated with claims processing activities for customers, sales and marketing, and the development and maintenance of our networks, analytics-based services, and payment and revenue integrity services. Two of the largest components in costs of services are personnel expenses and access and bill review fees. Access and bill review fees include fees for accessing non-owned third-party provider networks, expenses associated with vendor fees for database access and systems technology used to reprice claims, and outsourced services. Third-party network expenses are fees paid to non-owned provider networks used to supplement our owned network assets to provide more network claim savings to our customers.
General and Administrative Expenses
General and administrative expenses include corporate management and governance functions composed of general management, legal, treasury, tax, real estate, financial reporting, auditing, benefits and human resource administration, communications, public relations, billing and information management. In addition, general and administrative expenses include taxes, insurance, advertising, transaction costs, and other general expenses.
Depreciation Expense
Depreciation expense consists of depreciation and amortization of property and equipment related to our investments in leasehold improvements, furniture and equipment, computer hardware and software, and internally generated capitalized software development costs. We provide for depreciation and amortization on property and equipment using the straight-line method to allocate the cost of depreciable assets over their estimated useful lives.
Amortization of intangible assets
Amortization of intangible assets includes amortization of the value of our customer relationships, provider network, technology, and trademarks which were identified in valuing the intangible assets in connection with the June 6, 2016 acquisition by H&F, as well as recent acquisitions by the Company. The acquisitions of HST and DHP contributed to an increase in intangibles recorded onby the balance sheet of $32.2 million and $41.1 million, respectively, for customer relationships, trade names, and technology.Company.
Interest expense
Interest expense consists of accrued interest and related interest payments on our outstanding long-term debt and amortization of debt issuance costs discounts and premiums.discounts.
Interest income
Interest income consists primarily of bank interest.
ChangeLoss (gain) on change in fair value of Private Placement Warrants and unvested founder sharesUnvested Founder Shares
The Company remeasuresre-measures at each reporting period the fair value of the Private Placement Warrants and unvested founder shares.Unvested Founder Shares. The changechanges in fair value of $81.6 million and $41.2 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively, wasare primarily due to the changechanges in the stock price of the Company's Class A common stock, the expected stock volatility and the passage of time over the reporting period.

Income tax expense (benefit)
Income tax expense (benefit) consists of federal, state, and local income taxes.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
We use EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EPS to evaluate our financial performance. EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EPS are financial measures that are not presented in accordance with GAAP. We believe the presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures provides useful information to investors in assessing our financial condition and results of operations across reporting periods on a consistent basis by excluding items that we do not believe are indicative of our financial operating results of our core business.
These measurements of financial performance have important limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Additionally, they may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. Some of these limitations are:
such measures do not reflect our cash expenditures or future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments;
such measures do not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs;
such measures do not reflect the significant interest expense, or cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments on our debt;
such measures do not reflect any cash requirements for any future replacement of depreciated assets;
such measures do not reflect the impact of stock-based compensation upon our results of operations;
such measures do not reflect our income tax (benefit) expense or the cash requirements to pay our income taxes;
such measures do not reflect the impact of certain cash charges resulting from matters we consider not to be indicative of our ongoing operations; and
other companies in our industry may calculate these measures differently from how we do, limiting their usefulness as a comparative measure.
In evaluating EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EPS, you should be aware that in the future we may incur expenses similar to those eliminated in the presentation.
EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, and Adjusted EPS are widely used measures of corporate profitability eliminating the effects of financing and capital expenditures from the operating results. We define EBITDA as net income (loss) adjusted for interest expense, interest income, income tax (benefit) expense, depreciation, amortization of intangible assets, and non-income taxes. We define Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA further adjusted to eliminate the impact of certain items that we do not consider to be indicative of our core business, including other expenses, net, loss (gain) on change in fair value of Private Placement Warrants and unvested founder shares,Unvested Founder Shares, transaction related expenses, loss (gain) on the debt extinguishment, loss (gain)gain on investments and stock-based compensation. See our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report for more information regarding these adjustments. Adjusted EBITDA is used in our agreements governing our outstanding indebtedness for debt covenant compliance purposes. Our Adjusted EBITDA calculation is consistent with the definition of Adjusted EBITDA used in our debt instruments.
Adjusted EPS is used in reporting to our Board and executive management and as a component of the measurement of our performance. We believe that this measure provides useful information to investors because it is the profitability measure we use to evaluate earnings performance on a comparable year-to-year basis. Adjusted EPS is defined as net income (loss) adjusted for amortization of intangible assets, stock-based compensation, transaction related expenses, gain on investments, other expense, loss (gain) on investments, loss (gain) on debt extinguishment, other expense, change in fair value of Private Placement Warrants and unvested founder sharesUnvested Founder Shares and tax effect of adjustments to arrive at Adjusted net income divided by our basic weighted average number of shares outstanding.

On July 12, 2020, Churchill entered into the Merger Agreement by and among First Merger Sub, Second Merger Sub, Holdings, and MultiPlan Parent. On October 8, 2020, the Merger Agreement was consummated and the Transactions were completed.
The Transactions were accounted for as a reverse recapitalization, with no goodwill or other intangible assets recorded, in accordance with GAAP. Under this method of accounting, Churchill was treated as the "acquired" company for financial reporting purposes with MultiPlan Parent determined to be the accounting acquiror. This determination was primarily based on the existing MultiPlan Parent stockholders being the majority stockholders and holding majority voting power in the combined company, MultiPlan Parent's senior management comprising the majority of senior management of the combined company, and the ongoing operations of MultiPlan Parent comprising the ongoing operations of the combined company. Accordingly, for accounting purposes, the Transactions were treated as the equivalent of MultiPlan Parent issuing shares for the net assets of Churchill, accompanied by a recapitalization. The net assets of Churchill were recognized at fair value (which were consistent with carrying value), with no goodwill or other intangible assets recorded. See Note 1 General Information and Basis of Accounting of the notes to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report for further information on the Transactions.
As a consequence of the Transactions, we became the successor to a SEC-registered and NYSE-listed company.

Debt Refinancings, Repayments and Repricing
We madeOn August 24, 2021, MPH issued new senior secured credit facilities composed of $1,325.0 million of Term Loan B and $450.0 million of a Revolver B, and $1,050.0 million in aggregate principal prepaymentamount of 5.50% Senior Secured Notes. MPH used the net proceeds from Term Loan B, issued with a discount of 1.00%, and the 5.50% Senior Secured Notes to repay all of the outstanding balance of its Term Loan G for a total redemption price of $2,354.6 million, and pay fees and expenses in connection therewith.
Interest on Term Loan B and Revolver B is calculated, at MPH’s option, as (a) LIBOR (or, with respect to Term Loan B only, 0.50%, if higher), plus the amountapplicable margin, or (b) the highest rate of $369.0 million(1) the prime rate, (2) the federal funds effective rate, plus 0.50%, (3) the LIBOR for an interest period of one month, plus 1.00% and (4) 0.50% for Term Loan B and 1.00% for
24


Revolver B, in each case, plus an applicable margin of 4.25% for Term Loan B and between 3.50% and 4.00% for Revolver B, depending on October 29, 2020. This prepayment reducesMPH’s first lien debt to consolidated EBITDA ratio. The interest expenserate in effect for Term Loan B was 5.82% as of June 30, 2022 and the interest rate in effect for Term Loan G for thiswas 3.75% as of June 30, 2021.
The Company is obligated to pay a commitment fee on the average daily unused amount of Revolver B. The annual commitment fee can range from an annual rate of 0.25% to 0.50% based on the Company's first lien debt to consolidated EBITDA ratio, as defined in the agreement.
The interest rate on the 5.50% Senior Secured Notes is fixed at 5.50%, and future time periods.is payable semi-annually on March 1 and September 1 of each year.
For all our debt agreements with an interest rate dependent on LIBOR, we are currently assessing and monitoring how transitioning from LIBOR to an alternative reference rate may affect us past 2023.
In connection with the issuance of our debt instruments, the Company incurred specific expenses, related to raising the debt, including commissions, fees and expenses of investment bankers and underwriters, registration and listing fees, accounting and legal fees pertaining to the financing and other external, and incremental expenses paid to advisors that were directly attributable to realizing the proceeds of the debt issues. These costs were capitalized and are being amortized over the term of the related debt using the effective interest method. The amortization of the debt issuance costs premiums and discounts are included in interest expense in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statements of lossincome (loss) and comprehensive loss.
In the years ended December 31, 2019, 2018, and 2017, we did not recognize expense for the portions of debt issuance costs related to the amounts of the principal loan prepayments of Term Loan G made in each year, which resulted in an understatement of long-term debt of $2.3 million as of December 31, 2019. We corrected this error as an out-of-period adjustment resulting in an overstatement of interest expense of $2.3 million in the six months ended June 30, 2020income (loss).
On October 8, 2020, the Company issued and sold $1,300.0 million in aggregate principal amount of the Senior Convertible PIK Notes. The Senior Convertible PIK Notes were issued with a 2.5% discount and a maturity date of October 15, 2027. The Senior Convertible PIK Notes will accrue interest at a rate per annum equal to six percent (6.00%) with respect to Cash Interest and seven percent (7.00%) with respect to PIK Interest. The Company must elect prior to the third business day prior to any interest payment date to pay Cash Interest or PIK Interest for such interest period; provided that prior to any such election, the Company is deemed to have selected Cash Interest.
On October 8, 2020, we redeemed the Senior PIK Notes in full at a redemption price of 102.000% of the principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest for a total redemption price of $1,237.6 million.
On October 29, 2020, MPH issued $1,300.0 million in aggregate principal amount of its 5.750% Notes and redeemed the 7.125% Notes in full at a redemption price of 103.563% of the principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest for a total redemption price of $1,661.3 million. The Company also entered into an amendment to increase the commitments under its senior secured revolving credit facility from $100.0 million to $450.0 million.
Stock-Based Compensation
Prior to the consummation of the Transactions, we were a wholly owned subsidiary of Holdings and our stock-based compensation was granted to employees in the form of Units via a Class B Unit Award Agreement. The fair value of the Units was remeasured at each reporting period. The consummation of the Transactions constituted a definitive Liquidity Event under the agreements governing the Unit awards and as a result the incentive plan was liquidated. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company recorded stock-based compensation expense under the Class B Unit Award Agreement of $27.9
27


million and $37.3 million, respectively, in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statements of loss and comprehensive loss.

The three letters of credit are used to satisfy real estate lease agreements for three of our offices in lieu of security deposits. Effective starting in fourth quarter 2020, these letters of credit are no longer utilized against the revolver.
As of December 31, 2020, we had cash and cash equivalents of $126.8 million and $450.0 million of loan availability under the revolving credit facility. In March 2020, $98.0 million of borrowings were drawn on our Revolver G. This borrowing was a precautionary measure taken due to the uncertainty of the COVID-19 pandemic. As there were no liquidity issues related to COVID-19, the Revolver G and associated interest were repaid on June 25, 2020.
Our primary sources of liquidity are internally generated funds combined with our borrowing capacity under our Revolver G.revolving credit facility. We believe that these sources will provide sufficient liquidity for us to meet our working capital, capital expenditure and other cash requirements for at least the next twelve months. We may from time to time at our sole discretion, purchase, redeem or retire our long-term debt, through tender offers, in privately negotiated or open market transactions or otherwise. We plan to finance our capital expenditures with cash from operations. Furthermore, our future liquidity and future ability to fund capital expenditures, working capital and debt requirements are also dependent upon our future financial performance, which is subject to many economic, commercial, financial and other factors that are beyond our control, including the ability of financial institutions to meet their lending obligations to us. If those factors significantly change, our business may not be able to generate sufficient cash flow from operations or future borrowings may not be available to meet our liquidity needs. We anticipate that to the extent we require additional liquidity as a result of these factors or in order to execute our strategy, it would be financed either by borrowings under our senior secured credit facilities, by other indebtedness, additional equity financings or a combination of the foregoing. We may be unable to obtain any such additional financing on reasonable terms or at all.

Critical Accounting Policies
In preparing our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, we are required to make judgments, assumptions and estimates, which we believe are reasonable and prudent based on the available facts and circumstances. These judgments, assumptions and estimates affect certain of our revenues and expenses and their related balance sheet accounts and disclosure of our contingent liabilities. We base our assumptions and estimates primarily on historical experience and consider known and projected trends. On an ongoing basis, we re-evaluate our selection of assumptions and the method of calculating our estimates. Actual results, however, may materially differ from our calculated estimates, and this difference would be reported in our current operations.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Reference is made to our 20202021 Annual Report and in particular Item 7A.“Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure about Market Risk” therein. As of June 30, 2021,2022, there were no material changes in the market risks described in our 20202021 Annual Report.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial and accounting officer, the Company conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report, as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act.
Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial and accounting officers have concluded that, as of June 30, 2022, our disclosure controls and procedures were notdesigned at a reasonable assurance level and were effective as of June 30, 2021, solely as a result ofto provide reasonable assurance that the following two material weaknessesinformation we are required to disclose in internal control over financial reporting:
We did not maintain a sufficient complement of resources with an appropriate level of accounting knowledgereports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and experience commensurate withreported within the financial reporting requirements for a public company, including condensed timelines to closetime periods specified in the SEC rules and sufficient oversight of internal controls over financial reporting.
We did not maintain sufficient formal accounting policies, procedures,forms, and controls for accountingthat such information is accumulated and financial reporting with respect to the requirements and application of public company financial reporting requirements, including accounting for debt and equity arrangements.
These material weaknesses, which continue to exist as of June 30, 2021, did not result in any material misstatementscommunicated to our unaudited condensed consolidatedmanagement, including our principal executive officer and principal financial statements for the three months ended June 30, 2021.
Remediation of Material Weaknesses
In 2020, the Company took the following actionsand accounting officers, as appropriate, to remediate the two material weaknesses:
36


The Company hired a Senior Vice President and Chief Accounting Officer, a Vice President of Internal Audit, and an Assistant Vice President and Assistant General Counsel, Securities in September 2020, October 2020, and December 2020, respectively.
The Company continues to evaluate the need for additional resources with the requisite knowledge of accounting and financial reporting while supplementing existing resources with temporary resources to assist with performing technical accounting activities.
The Company engaged a professional services firm to assist in the design and documentation of formal policies, procedures and internal controls.
The Company continues to formalize and implement accounting policies, procedures, and internal controls for financial close and reporting, in line with public company financial reporting requirements.
Building on our efforts during 2020, during the first half of 2021, the Company took the following additional actions:
The Company hired a Senior Vice President of Finance and Investor Relations and strengthened the financial reporting and technical accounting team with individuals who have significant experience in technical accounting matters and internal controls.
The Company prepared a risk assessment of key controls. Through this analysis, the Company is identifying areas where new controls are needed as well as areas where control enhancements to existing controls are necessary. The Company will further develop and implement these controls as part of the close process and will continue to enhance or modify these controls in future periods if needed.
The Company started the evaluation of its key internal controls over financial reporting covering entity-level controls, business process controls, and IT general controls. Upon completion of the interim testing of key controls, Management will continue to assess its internal controls, remediate any identified deficiencies and continue to enhance its key financial reporting controls.
The Company worked to strengthen the internal control environment for financial reporting by conducting training on policies and procedures, standardizing business practices, improving communication, leadership, and process improvement within various financial functional areas.
We believe the measures described above will facilitate the remediation of the control deficiencies we have identified and strengthen our internal control over financial reporting. We are committed to continuing to improve our internal control processes and will continue to review, optimize and enhance our financial reporting controls and procedures. As we continue to evaluate and work to improve our internal control over financial reporting, we may take additional measures to address control deficiencies, or we may modify certain of the remediation measures described above. These material weaknesses will not be considered remediated until the applicable controls operate for a sufficient period of time and management has concluded, through testing, that these controls are operating effectively. Accordingly, the material weaknesses are not remediated as of June 30, 2021.allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Other than the measures described above, thereThere has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting during the threesix months ended June 30, 20212022 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
Inherent Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls
Management recognizes that a control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud or error, if any, have been detected.

Part II - Other Information
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
We are a defendant in various lawsuits and other pending and threatened litigation and other adversarial matters as well as regulatory investigations, all of which have arisen in the ordinary course of business as well as regulatory investigations.business. While the ultimate outcome with respect to such proceedings cannot be predicted with certainty, we believe they will not have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations.
On March 25, 2021 and April 9, 2021, we were named as a defendant in two putative class action lawsuits relating to the Transactions that have since been consolidated under the caption In Re MultiPlan Corp.

Klein (the “Churchill Defendants”(collectively, the "Churchill Defendants") and the Company. The Delaware Stockholder Litigation complaint alleges that the Transactions were a product of an unfair process by Churchill, which was allegedly impacted by conflicts of interest, resulting in mispricing of the Transactions. The complaint seeks, among other things, damages, certain equitable relief including the reopening of redemptions, and attorneys’ fees and costs. On June 18, 2021, theThe Company and the Churchill Defendants each filed opening briefs in support of their respective motions to dismiss the complaint.
In addition, On January 3, 2022, the putative securities class action complaint captioned Samuel Paradis v. MultiPlan Corporation et. al., No. 1:21-cv-1853 (E.D.N.Y.)Chancery Court issued a ruling granting in part the Company’s motion to dismiss and denying the motion to dismiss filed on April 6, 2021 inby the United States District Court forChurchill Defendants.

We cannot reasonably estimate a potential future loss or a range of potential future losses and have not recorded a contingent liability accrual in connection with these matters as of June 30, 2021.2022.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
There have been no material changes except for the following, during the six months ended June 30, 20212022 to the risk factors previously disclosed in Item 1A. “Risk Factors” in the Company's 20202021 Annual Report.
Our Private Placement Warrants and unvested founder shares are accounted for as derivative liabilities and changes in fair value for each period are reported in earnings, which may have an adverse effect on the market price of our Class A common stock.
As of June 30, 2021, we had Private Placement Warrants exercisable for an aggregate of 24,500,000 shares of our Class A common stock and unvested founder shares contingently issuable for an aggregate of 12,404,080 shares of our Class A common stock outstanding. We account for the Private Placement Warrants and unvested founder shares as liabilities. At each reporting period (i) the accounting treatment of the Private Placement Warrants and unvested founder shares will be re-evaluated for proper accounting treatment as a liability or equity and (ii) the fair value of the liability of the Private Placement Warrants and unvested founder shares will be remeasured and the change in the fair value of the liability will be recorded as Change in fair value of Private Placement Warrants and unvested founder shares in our Statements of Loss and Comprehensive Loss. Changes in the inputs and assumptions for the valuation model we use to determine the fair value of such liability may have a material impact on the estimated fair value of the embedded derivative liability. The share price of our Class A common stock represents the primary underlying variable that impacts the value of the derivative instruments. Additional factors that impact the value of the derivative instruments include the volatility of our stock price, risk-free rate and discount for lack of marketability. As a result, our consolidated financial statements and results of operations will fluctuate quarterly, based on various factors, such as the share price of our Class A common stock, many of which are outside of our control. In addition, we may change the underlying assumptions used in our valuation model, which could result in significant fluctuations in our results of operations. If our stock price is volatile, we expect that we will recognize non-cash gains or losses on the outstanding Private Placement Warrants, unvested founder shares or any other similar derivative instruments each reporting period and that the amount of such gains or losses could be material. The impact of changes in fair value on earnings may have an adverse effect on the market price of our Class A common stock.
