SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES | |
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES | 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Basis of Presentation The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared by Alliance Data Systems Corporation (“ADSC” or, including its consolidated subsidiaries and variable interest entities (“VIEs”), the “Company”), without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. However, the Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020, filed with the SEC on February 26, 2021. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included herein reflect all adjustments (consisting of normal, recurring adjustments) which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to state fairly the results for the interim periods presented. The results of operations for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the operating results to be expected for any subsequent interim period or for the fiscal year. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect (1) the reported amounts of assets; (2) liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements; and (3) the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Planned Spinoff of the LoyaltyOne Segment On October 13, 2021, the Company’s Board of Directors approved the previously announced separation (the “Separation”) of its LoyaltyOne segment, consisting of its Canadian AIR MILES® Reward Program and Netherlands-based BrandLoyalty businesses, into an independent, publicly traded company, Loyalty Ventures Inc. listed on Nasdaq under the symbol “LYLT” (“Loyalty Ventures”). The Separation will be completed through the pro rata distribution of 81% of the outstanding shares of Loyalty Ventures to holders of ADSC’s common stock at the close of business on the record date of October 27, 2021, with ADSC retaining the remaining 19% of the outstanding shares of Loyalty Ventures. ADSC stockholders of record at the close of business on October 27, 2021 will receive one share of Loyalty Ventures common stock for every two and one-half (2.5) shares of ADSC common stock. The distribution is expected to qualify as a tax-free reorganization and a tax-free distribution to ADSC and its stockholders for U.S. federal income tax purposes, to be completed on November 5, 2021. At the time of the spinoff, the Company will retain a 19% interest in Loyalty Ventures and historical results of the LoyaltyOne segment will be reflected as discontinued operations in the Company’s consolidated financial statements. Recently Issued Accounting Standards In March 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2020-04, “Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting.” This ASU 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 in this ASU apply only to contracts and hedging relationships that reference the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) or another reference rate expected to be discontinued due to reference rate reform. The expedients and exceptions provided by the amendments do not apply to contract modifications made and hedging relationships entered into or evaluated after December 31, 2022. This ASU is elective and is effective upon issuance for all entities. The Company is evaluating the impact that adoption of ASU 2020-04 will have on its consolidated financial statements. Recently Adopted Accounting Standards In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, “Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes.” ASU 2019-12 eliminated certain exceptions within Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 740, “Income Taxes,” and clarified certain aspects of ASC 740 to promote consistency among reporting entities. Most amendments within the standard were required to be applied on a prospective basis, while certain amendments must be applied on a retrospective or modified retrospective basis. The Company’s adoption of this standard on January 1, 2021 did not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements. |

A reconciliation of contract liabilities for the AIR MILES Reward Program is as follows: Deferred Revenue Service Redemption Total (in millions) Balance at January 1, 2021 $ 247.2 $ 756.8 $ 1,004.0 Cash proceeds 129.0 206.7 335.7 Revenue recognized (1) (148.4) (175.7) (324.1) Other — 1.2 1.2 Effects of foreign currency translation 1.3 2.8 4.1 Balance at September 30, 2021 $ 229.1 $ 791.8 $ 1,020.9 Amounts recognized in the consolidated balance sheets: Deferred revenue (current) $ 132.5 $ 791.8 $ 924.3 Deferred revenue (non-current) $ 96.6 $ — $ 96.6 (1) Reported on a gross basis herein. The deferred redemption obligation associated with the AIR MILES Reward Program is effectively due on demand from the collector base, thus the timing of revenue recognition is based on the redemption by the collector. Service revenue is amortized over the expected life of a mile, with the deferred revenue balance expected to be recognized into revenue in the amount of $44.5 million in 2021 2022 2023 2024 Additionally, contract liabilities for the Company’s short-term loyalty programs are recognized in other current liabilities in the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. The beginning balance as of January 1, 2021 was $66.9 million and the closing balance as of September 30, 2021 was $107.2 million, with the change due to cash payments received in advance of program performance, offset in part by revenue recognized of approximately $226.9 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2021. Contract Costs The Company recognizes an asset for the incremental costs of obtaining or fulfilling a contract with the retailer for a credit card program agreement to the extent it expects to recover those costs, in accordance with ASC 340-40, “Other Assets and Deferred Costs.” Contract costs are deferred and amortized on a straight-line basis that is consistent with the transfer of services, which is generally the term of the contract. Depending on the nature of the contract costs, the amortization is recorded as a reduction to revenue, or costs of operations, in the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated statements of income. As of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the remaining unamortized contract costs were $361.0 million and $311.1 million, respectively, and are included in other current assets and other non-current assets in the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. |

ACQUISITION | 4. ACQUISITION On September 28, 2020, the Company acquired 3.5 million preferred Series D Shares of Lon Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Bread”), for approximately $25.0 million, which represented an approximate 6% ownership interest in Bread. Bread is a technology-driven digital payments company, offering an omnichannel solution for retailers and platform capabilities to bank partners. On December 3, 2020, the Company acquired the remaining interest in Bread. In accordance with ASC 805, the Company’s approximate 6% interest was remeasured at fair value when control of Bread was obtained on December 3, 2020; no gain or loss was recognized on the remeasurement. Consideration for the 100% ownership of Bread consisted of cash of $275.0 million, equity of $149.2 million with the issuance of 1.9 million shares of the Company’s common stock, and deferred cash consideration of $75.0 million due December 2021, subject to customary closing purchase price adjustments. Consideration, net of cash and restricted cash acquired, was $491.0 million. The following table summarizes the allocation of the consideration and the respective fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the Bread transaction as of the acquisition date, net of cash acquired: As of (in millions) Installment loan receivables $ 111.7 Accounts receivable 0.2 Other current assets 0.6 Property and equipment 0.3 Developed technology 90.7 Right of use assets - operating 3.6 Deferred tax asset, net 7.0 Intangible assets 11.3 Goodwill 369.6 Total assets acquired 595.0 Accounts payable 2.0 Accrued expenses 2.9 Operating lease liabilities 3.5 Non-recourse borrowings of consolidated securitization entities 95.6 Total liabilities assumed 104.0 Net assets acquired, net of cash and restricted cash $ 491.0 |

CREDIT CARD AND LOAN RECEIVABLES | |
CREDIT CARD AND LOAN RECEIVABLES | 6. CREDIT CARD AND LOAN RECEIVABLES Quantitative information about the components of the Company’s credit card and loan receivables is presented in the table below: September 30, December 31, 2021 2020 (in millions) Credit card receivables $ 15,271.0 $ 16,376.4 Installment loan receivables 160.8 118.0 Other 258.1 290.0 Total credit card and loan receivables 15,689.9 16,784.4 Less: Credit card and loan receivables – restricted for securitization investors 10,102.7 11,208.5 Other credit card and loan receivables $ 5,587.2 $ 5,575.9 Allowance for Loan Loss The allowance for loan loss is an estimate of expected credit losses, measured over the estimated life of the Company’s credit card and loan receivables that considers forecasts of future economic conditions in addition to information about past events and current conditions. The estimate under the current expected credit loss (“CECL”) model is significantly influenced by the composition, characteristics and quality of its portfolio of credit card and loan receivables, as well as the prevailing economic conditions and forecasts utilized. The estimate of the allowance for loan loss includes an estimate for uncollectible principal as well as unpaid interest and fees. Charge-offs of principal amounts, net of recoveries are deducted from the allowance. The allowance is maintained through an adjustment to the provision for loan loss and is evaluated for appropriateness. Credit Card Receivables ASC 326, “Financial Instruments—Credit Losses,” requires entities to use a “pooled” approach to estimate expected credit losses for financial assets with similar risk characteristics. To estimate its allowance for loan loss, the Company segregates its credit card receivables into four groups with similar risk characteristics, on the basis of delinquency status and credit quality risk score, which were determined by the Company to be the most significant characteristics for estimating expected credit losses. These risk characteristics are evaluated on at least an annual basis, or more frequently as facts and circumstances warrant. The Company’s credit card receivables do not have stated maturities and therefore prepayments are not factored into the determination of the estimated life of the credit card receivables. In determining the estimated life of a credit card receivable, payments were applied to the measurement date balance with no payments allocated to future purchase activity. The Company uses a combination of First In First Out (“FIFO”) and the Credit Card Accountability, Responsibility, and Disclosure Act of 2009 (“CARD Act”) methodology to model balance paydown. The Company’s groups of pooled financial assets with similar risk characteristics and their estimated life is as follows: Estimated Life (in months) Group A (Current, risk score - high) 14 Group B (Current, risk score - low) 19 Group C (Delinquent, risk score - high) 17 Group D (Delinquent, risk score - low) 26 In estimating its allowance for loan loss, for each identified group, management utilizes various models and estimation techniques based on historical loss experience, current conditions, reasonable and supportable forecasts and other relevant factors. These models utilize historical data and applicable macroeconomic variables with statistical analysis and behavioral relationships with credit performance. The Company’s quantitative estimate of expected credit losses under CECL is impacted by certain forecasted economic factors. Management utilizes a third party service to analyze a number of scenarios, but uses one scenario to determine the macroeconomic variables over the forecast period. The Company considers the forecast used to be reasonable and supportable over the estimated life of the credit card receivables, with no reversion period. In addition to the quantitative estimate of expected credit losses, the Company also incorporates qualitative adjustments for certain factors such as Company-specific risks, changes in current economic conditions that may not be captured in the quantitatively derived results, or other relevant factors to ensure the allowance for loan loss reflects the Company’s best estimate of current expected credit losses. As permitted by ASC 326, the Company excludes unbilled finance charges from its amortized cost basis of credit card and loan receivables. As of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, unbilled finance charges were $208.4 million and $219.4 million, respectively, and are included in other credit card and loan receivables in the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. Installment Loan Receivables The allowance for loan loss for installment loan receivables utilizes a migration model over the remaining life of the loans. The model segments accounts based on three attributes: delinquency, risk score and remaining term. As of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the allowance for loan loss related to installment loan receivables was $7.8 million and $5.7 million, respectively. Allowance for Loan Loss Rollforward The following table presents the Company’s allowance for loan loss for its credit card and loan receivables for the periods indicated: Three Months Ended Nine Months Ended September 30, September 30, 2021 (1) 2020 2021 (1) 2020 (in millions) Balance at beginning of period $ 1,635.3 $ 2,096.3 $ 2,008.0 $ 1,171.1 Adoption of ASC 326 (2) — — — 644.0 Provision for loan loss 161.1 207.7 180.3 1,113.7 Recoveries 36.2 45.5 127.9 170.3 Principal charge-offs (187.8) (268.6) (671.4) (1,018.2) Balance at end of period $ 1,644.8 $ 2,080.9 $ 1,644.8 $ 2,080.9 (1) With the acquisition of Bread in December 2020, the Company acquired certain installment loans which represented a separate portfolio segment. As the amount of the allowance for loan loss was immaterial, the amounts were included in the above table. (2) Recorded January 1, 2020 through a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings, net of taxes. For the nine months ended September 30, 2021, the decrease in the allowance for loan loss was due to improved credit performance, lower net charge-offs and improving macroeconomic variables. In addition, improvements in customer payment behavior, which include the effects of government stimulus actions, have contributed to a reduction in credit card receivables and delinquencies, which also contributed to the reduction in the allowance for loan loss. For the nine months ended September 30, 2020, the increase in the allowance for loan loss was due to a $644.0 million cumulative-effect adjustment for the adoption of ASC 326 as well as deterioration of the macroeconomic outlook due to COVID-19. Net Charge-offs Net charge-offs include the principal amount of losses that are deemed uncollectible, less recoveries and exclude charged-off interest, fees and fraud losses. Charged-off interest and fees reduce finance charges, net while fraud losses are recorded as a cost of operations expense. Credit card receivables, including unpaid interest and fees, are charged-off in the month during which an account becomes 180 days contractually past due, except in the case of customer bankruptcies or death. Installment loan receivables, including unpaid interest, are charged-off when a loan is 120 days past due, including in the case of customer bankruptcies or death. Credit card receivables, including unpaid interest and fees, associated with customer bankruptcies or death are charged-off in each month subsequent to 60 days after the receipt of notification of the bankruptcy or death, but in any case, not later than the 180-day contractual time frame. Principal charge-offs, net of recoveries, were $151.5 million and $223.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, and $543.5 million and $847.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. Charge-offs for unpaid interest and fees were $90.7 million and $142.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, and $335.1 million and $571.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. Delinquencies An account is contractually delinquent if the Company does not receive the minimum payment by the specified due date. It is the Company’s policy to continue to accrue interest and fee income on all accounts, except in limited circumstances, until the account balance and all related interest and other fees are paid or charged-off, typically at 180 days delinquent for credit card receivables and 120 days delinquent for installment loan receivables. After an account becomes 30 days past due, a proprietary collection scoring algorithm automatically scores the risk of the account becoming further delinquent. The collection system then recommends a collection strategy for the past due account based on the collection score and account balance and dictates the contact schedule and collections priority for the account. If the Company is unable to make a collection after exhausting all in-house collection efforts, the Company may engage collection agencies and outside attorneys to continue those efforts. The following table presents the amortized cost basis of the aging analysis of the Company’s credit card and loan receivables portfolio: Aging Analysis of Delinquent Amortized Cost (1) 31 to 60 days 61 to 90 days 91 or more days delinquent Total Current Total (in millions) As of September 30, 2021 $ 230.8 $ 160.1 $ 346.6 $ 737.5 $ 14,694.3 $ 15,431.8 As of December 31, 2020 $ 272.5 $ 203.3 $ 439.8 $ 915.6 $ 15,578.8 $ 16,494.4 (1) As the amount of the installment loans and associated delinquencies were immaterial, the amounts were included in the above table for both the period ended September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020. Modified Credit Card Receivables Forbearance Programs In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company offered forbearance programs, which provided for short-term modifications in the form of payment deferrals and late fee waivers to borrowers who were current with their payments prior to any relief. As of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the credit card receivables in these deferral forbearance programs were approximately $79.4 million and $157.4 million, respectively. Additionally, the Company instituted two short-term programs with durations of three and six months , which provide concessions consisting primarily of a reduced minimum payment and an interest rate reduction, the balances of which were $13.3 million and $67.3 million as of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. As these short-term modifications were made in response to COVID-19 to borrowers who were current prior to any relief, these are not considered troubled debt restructurings under the Interagency Statement guidance on certain loan modifications and an interpretation of ASC 310-40, “Receivables—Troubled Debt Restructurings by Creditors.” Troubled Debt Restructurings The Company holds certain credit card receivables for which the terms have been modified. The Company’s modified credit card receivables include credit card receivables for which temporary hardship concessions have been granted and credit card receivables in permanent workout programs. These modified credit card receivables include concessions consisting primarily of a reduced minimum payment and an interest rate reduction. The temporary programs’ concessions remain in place for a period no longer than twelve months, while the permanent programs remain in place through the payoff of the credit card receivables if the credit cardholder complies with the terms of the program. Additionally, the Company instituted two temporary hardship programs with durations of three Troubled debt restructuring concessions do not include the forgiveness of unpaid principal, but may involve the reversal of certain unpaid interest or fee assessments. In the case of the temporary hardship programs, at the end of the concession period, credit card receivable terms revert to standard rates. These arrangements are automatically terminated if the customer fails to make payments in accordance with the terms of the program, at which time their account reverts back to its original terms. Credit card receivables for which temporary hardship and permanent concessions were granted are each considered troubled debt restructurings and are collectively evaluated for impairment. The Company had $311.8 million and $489.8 million, respectively, as a recorded investment in impaired credit card receivables as of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively, which represented approximately 3% of the Company’s total credit card receivables as of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. The average recorded investment in impaired credit card receivables was $338.8 million and $459.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, and $411.9 million and $387.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. Interest income on these modified credit card receivables is accounted for in the same manner as other accruing credit card receivables. Cash collections on these modified credit card receivables are allocated according to the same payment hierarchy methodology applied to credit card receivables that are not in such programs. The Company recognized $5.3 million and $8.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, and $21.2 million and $21.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, in interest income associated with modified credit card receivables during the period that such credit card receivables were impaired. The following table provides information on credit card receivables that are considered troubled debt restructurings as described above, which entered into a modification program during the specified periods: Three Months Ended September 30, 2021 Nine Months Ended September 30, 2021 Pre-modification Post-modification Pre-modification Post-modification Number of Outstanding Outstanding Number of Outstanding Outstanding Restructurings Balance Balance Restructurings Balance Balance (Dollars in millions) Troubled debt restructurings – credit card receivables 37,379 $ 54.6 $ 54.5 134,068 $ 199.8 $ 199.6 Three Months Ended September 30, 2020 Nine Months Ended September 30, 2020 Pre-modification Post-modification Pre-modification Post-modification Number of Outstanding Outstanding Number of Outstanding Outstanding Restructurings Balance Balance Restructurings Balance Balance (Dollars in millions) Troubled debt restructurings – credit card receivables 131,919 $ 170.3 $ 169.0 302,438 $ 439.3 $ 437.6 The table below summarizes troubled debt restructurings that have defaulted in the specified periods where the default occurred within 12 months of their modification date: Three Months Ended Nine Months Ended September 30, 2021 September 30, 2021 Number of Outstanding Number of Outstanding Restructurings Balance Restructurings Balance (Dollars in millions) Troubled debt restructurings that subsequently defaulted – credit card receivables 19,888 $ 27.0 102,624 $ 136.4 Three Months Ended Nine Months Ended September 30, 2020 September 30, 2020 Number of Outstanding Number of Outstanding Restructurings Balance Restructurings Balance (Dollars in millions) Troubled debt restructurings that subsequently defaulted – credit card receivables 28,724 $ 37.8 82,000 $ 113.1 Credit Quality Credit Card Receivables The Company uses proprietary scoring models developed specifically for the purpose of monitoring the Company’s obligor credit quality for its credit card receivables. The proprietary scoring models are used as a tool in the underwriting process and for making credit decisions. The proprietary scoring models are based on historical data and require various assumptions about future performance, which the Company updates periodically. Information regarding customer performance is factored into these proprietary scoring models to determine the probability of an account becoming 91 or more days past due at any time within the next 12 months. Obligor credit quality is monitored at least monthly during the life of an account. The following table reflects the composition of the Company’s credit card receivables by obligor credit quality as of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020: Amortized Cost Revolving Credit Card Receivables September 30, 2021 December 31, 2020 Percentage of Percentage of Amortized Amortized Probability of an Account Becoming 91 or More Days Past Amortized Cost Basis Amortized Cost Basis Due or Becoming Charged-off (within the next 12 months) Cost Basis Outstanding Cost Basis Outstanding (in millions, except percentages) No Score $ 172.4 1.1 % $ 204.1 1.2 % 27.1% and higher 1,036.0 6.8 1,390.4 8.5 17.1% - 27.0% 739.8 4.8 848.8 5.2 12.6% - 17.0% 843.5 5.5 937.0 5.7 3.7% - 12.5% 6,889.9 45.1 7,305.5 44.6 1.9% - 3.6% 2,752.4 18.0 2,939.5 17.9 Lower than 1.9% 2,837.0 18.7 2,751.1 16.9 Total $ 15,271.0 100.0 % $ 16,376.4 100.0 % Note: The Company’s credit card receivables are revolving receivables as they do not have stated maturities and are exempted from certain vintage disclosures required under ASC 326. In addition, as part of the Company’s credit risk management activities, the Company also assesses overall credit quality by reviewing information related to the performance of a credit cardholder’s account, as well as information from credit bureaus relating to the cardholder’s broader credit performance. The credit scores obtained by the Company are Vantage scores, which is one of several credit scoring models used by industry participants. The Company uses these credit scores as one of its tools in its underwriting and credit decision process. Credit scores are obtained at origination of the account and refreshed monthly thereafter. The following table reflects the distribution of the Company’s credit card receivables by credit score as of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020: September 30, December 31, 2021 2020 Greater than 660 61.9 % 59.8 % 601-660 26.3 27.8 600 or below 11.8 12.4 Total (1) 100.0 % 100.0 % (1) Balances for which no credit score is available have been excluded from the table above and represent 0.1% of the credit card receivable balances as of both September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. Installment Loan Receivables The amortized cost basis of the Company’s installment loan receivables totaled $160.8 million and $118.0 million as of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively.

Securitized Credit Card Receivables The Company regularly securitizes its credit card and loan receivables through its trusts. The Company continues to own and service the accounts that generate credit card and loan receivables held by the trusts. In its capacity as a servicer, each of the respective entities earns a fee from the trusts to service and administer the credit card and loan receivables, collect payments and charge-off uncollectible receivables. These fees are eliminated and therefore are not reflected in the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated statements of income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020. The trusts are VIEs and the assets of these consolidated VIEs include certain credit card receivables that are restricted to settle the obligations of those entities and are not expected to be available to the Company or its creditors. The liabilities of the consolidated VIEs include non-recourse secured borrowings and other liabilities for which creditors or beneficial interest holders do not have recourse to the general credit of the Company.

LEASES | 10. LEASES The Company has operating leases for general office properties, warehouses, data centers, customer care centers, automobiles and certain equipment. As of September 30, 2021, the Company’s leases have remaining lease terms of less than 1 year to 17 years, some of which may include renewal options. For leases in which the implicit rate is not readily determinable, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate as of the lease commencement date to determine the present value of the lease payments. The incremental borrowing rate is based on the Company’s specific rate of interest to borrow on a collateralized basis, over a similar term and in a similar economic environment as the lease. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recognized on the balance sheet; the Company recognizes lease expense for these leases on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Additionally, the Company accounts for lease and nonlease components as a single lease component for its identified asset classes.

Under the terms of the agreement governing that transaction, the Company agreed to indemnify Publicis and its affiliates from and against any losses arising out of or related to a United States Department of Justice (“DOJ”) investigation. The DOJ investigation related to third-party marketers who sent, or allegedly sent, deceptive mailings and the provision of data and services to those marketers by Epsilon’s data practice. Epsilon actively cooperated with the DOJ in connection with the investigation. On January 19, 2021, Epsilon entered into a deferred prosecution agreement (“DPA”) with the DOJ to resolve the matters that were the subject of the investigation. Pursuant to the DPA, Epsilon agreed, among other things, to pay penalties and consumer compensation in the aggregate amount of $150.0 million, to be paid in two equal installments, the first in January 2021 and the second in January 2022. In accordance with ASC 450, “Contingencies,” the Company records a loss contingency when a loss is probable and an amount can be reasonably estimated, and therefore as of December 31, 2020, a $150.0 million liability was recorded. The Company paid $75.0 million to Publicis pursuant to its contractual indemnification obligation in January 2021. As of September 30, 2021, the Company has $75.0 million included in accrued expenses in its unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. |

FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS | 17. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS In accordance with ASC 825, “Financial Instruments,” the Company is required to disclose the fair value of financial instruments for which it is practical to estimate fair value. To obtain fair values, observable market prices are used if available. In some instances, observable market prices are not readily available and fair value is determined using present value or other techniques appropriate for a particular financial instrument. These techniques involve judgment and as a result are not necessarily indicative of the amounts the Company would realize in a current market exchange. The use of different assumptions or estimation techniques may have a material effect on the estimated fair value amounts. Fair Value of Financial Instruments — September 30, 2021 December 31, 2020 Carrying Fair Carrying Fair Amount Value Amount Value (in millions) Financial assets Credit card and loan receivables, net $ 14,045.1 $ 16,202.0 $ 14,776.4 $ 17,301.2 Redemption settlement assets, restricted 734.0 734.0 693.5 693.5 Other investments 236.9 236.9 225.4 225.4 Derivative instruments 1.9 1.9 0.4 0.4 Financial liabilities Derivative instruments 0.8 0.8 1.5 1.5 Deposits 9,885.5 10,027.3 9,792.6 10,015.9 Non-recourse borrowings of consolidated securitization entities 4,588.7 4,616.3 5,709.9 5,783.4 Long-term and other debt 2,733.9 2,816.6 2,805.7 2,875.1 The following techniques and assumptions were used by the Company in estimating fair values of financial instruments as disclosed herein: Credit card and loan receivables, net — . Redemption settlement assets, restricted — Other investments Deposits Non-recourse borrowings of consolidated securitization entities Long-term and other debt Derivative instruments Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities Fair Value Hierarchy ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurement,” establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the 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 where little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions. Financial instruments are considered Level 3 when their values are determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies or similar techniques and at least one significant model assumption or input is unobservable. Level 3 financial instruments also include those for which the determination of fair value requires significant management judgment or estimation. The use of different techniques to determine fair value of these financial instruments could result in different estimates of fair value at the reporting date. The following tables provide information for the assets and liabilities carried at fair value measured on a recurring basis as of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020: Fair Value Measurements at September 30, 2021 Using Balance at September 30, 2021 Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 (in millions) Mutual funds (1) $ 26.2 $ 26.2 $ — $ — Corporate bonds (1) 649.6 — 649.6 — Marketable securities (2) 236.9 48.8 188.1 — Derivative instruments (3) 1.9 — 1.9 — Total assets measured at fair value $ 914.6 $ 75.0 $ 839.6 $ — Derivative instruments (3) $ 0.8 $ — $ 0.8 $ — Total liabilities measured at fair value $ 0.8 $ — $ 0.8 $ — Fair Value Measurements at December 31, 2020 Using Balance at December 31, 2020 Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 (in millions) Mutual funds (1) $ 26.9 $ 26.9 $ — $ — Corporate bonds (1) 611.2 — 611.2 — Marketable securities (2) 225.4 34.2 191.2 — Derivative instruments (3) 0.4 — 0.4 — Total assets measured at fair value $ 863.9 $ 61.1 $ 802.8 $ — Derivative instruments (3) $ 1.5 $ — $ 1.5 $ — Total liabilities measured at fair value $ 1.5 $ — $ 1.5 $ — (1) Amounts are included in redemption settlement assets in the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets.

INCOME TAXES | 18. INCOME TAXES For the three months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, the Company utilized an effective tax rate of 23.0% and 24.2%, respectively, to calculate its provision for income taxes. For the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, the Company utilized an effective tax rate of 25.9% and 18.8 %, respectively, to calculate its provision for income taxes. The decrease in the effective tax rate for the three months ended September 30, 2021 as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2020 was primarily due to a discrete tax benefit related to a favorable settlement with a state tax authority in the third quarter of 2021. The increase in the effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2020 was primarily due to greater discrete tax benefits recorded in the prior year, which included the expiration of statutes of limitation related to certain foreign tax matters, a favorable state tax settlement and a benefit related to the issuance of final regulations on the GILTI high tax exception. |

SEGMENT INFORMATION | |
SEGMENT INFORMATION | 19. SEGMENT INFORMATION Operating segments are defined by ASC 280, “Segment Reporting,” as components of an enterprise about which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. The operating segments are reviewed separately because each operating segment represents a strategic business unit that generally offers different products and services. The Company operates in the LoyaltyOne and Card Services reportable segments, which consist of the following: ● LoyaltyOne provides coalition and short-term loyalty programs through the Company’s Canadian AIR MILES Reward Program and BrandLoyalty; and ● Card Services provides private label, co-brand, general purpose and business credit card programs, digital payments, including Bread, and Comenity-branded financial services. Card Services provides risk management solutions, account origination, funding, transaction processing, customer care, collections and marketing services. Corporate and other consists of corporate overhead not allocated to either of the Company’s segments. Effective with the first quarter of 2021, the Company changed its measure of segment operating profit from adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA, net to income before income taxes, as income before income taxes is now the primary performance metric utilized by the chief operating decision maker to allocate resources and assess performance of the segments. Income taxes are not allocated to the segments in the computation of segment operating profit for internal evaluation purposes. Segment operating results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 have been presented to align with the current year presentation. This change had no impact on previously reported financial information.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES | |
Basis of Presentation | Basis of Presentation The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared by Alliance Data Systems Corporation (“ADSC” or, including its consolidated subsidiaries and variable interest entities (“VIEs”), the “Company”), without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. However, the Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020, filed with the SEC on February 26, 2021. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included herein reflect all adjustments (consisting of normal, recurring adjustments) which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to state fairly the results for the interim periods presented. The results of operations for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the operating results to be expected for any subsequent interim period or for the fiscal year. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect (1) the reported amounts of assets; (2) liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements; and (3) the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. |
Planned Spinoff of the LoyaltyOne segment | Planned Spinoff of the LoyaltyOne Segment On October 13, 2021, the Company’s Board of Directors approved the previously announced separation (the “Separation”) of its LoyaltyOne segment, consisting of its Canadian AIR MILES® Reward Program and Netherlands-based BrandLoyalty businesses, into an independent, publicly traded company, Loyalty Ventures Inc. listed on Nasdaq under the symbol “LYLT” (“Loyalty Ventures”). The Separation will be completed through the pro rata distribution of 81% of the outstanding shares of Loyalty Ventures to holders of ADSC’s common stock at the close of business on the record date of October 27, 2021, with ADSC retaining the remaining 19% of the outstanding shares of Loyalty Ventures. ADSC stockholders of record at the close of business on October 27, 2021 will receive one share of Loyalty Ventures common stock for every two and one-half (2.5) shares of ADSC common stock. The distribution is expected to qualify as a tax-free reorganization and a tax-free distribution to ADSC and its stockholders for U.S. federal income tax purposes, to be completed on November 5, 2021. At the time of the spinoff, the Company will retain a 19% interest in Loyalty Ventures and historical results of the LoyaltyOne segment will be reflected as discontinued operations in the Company’s consolidated financial statements. |
Recently Issued and Adopted Accounting Standards | Recently Issued Accounting Standards In March 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2020-04, “Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting.” This ASU 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 in this ASU apply only to contracts and hedging relationships that reference the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) or another reference rate expected to be discontinued due to reference rate reform. The expedients and exceptions provided by the amendments do not apply to contract modifications made and hedging relationships entered into or evaluated after December 31, 2022. This ASU is elective and is effective upon issuance for all entities. The Company is evaluating the impact that adoption of ASU 2020-04 will have on its consolidated financial statements. Recently Adopted Accounting Standards In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, “Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes.” ASU 2019-12 eliminated certain exceptions within Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 740, “Income Taxes,” and clarified certain aspects of ASC 740 to promote consistency among reporting entities. Most amendments within the standard were required to be applied on a prospective basis, while certain amendments must be applied on a retrospective or modified retrospective basis. The Company’s adoption of this standard on January 1, 2021 did not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements. |
