On September 26, 2023, the Company’s automotive subsidiary entered into a credit agreement with Truist Bank, which includes (i) a $75.2 million real estate term loan, (ii) a $65.0 million capital term loan, (iii) a $50.0 million delayed draw term loan, and (iv) establishment of a revolving floor plan credit facility (see Note 4). The real estate term loan is payable in monthly installments of $0.3 million and bears interest at variable rates based on SOFR plus 1.75% per annum, and the capital term loan is payable in monthly installments of $0.5 million and bears interest at variable rates based on SOFR plus 2.00% per annum. The monthly installment payments on the real estate and capital term loans commence on November 1, 2023, with final payments of the outstanding principal balances due on September 26, 2028. Subject to terms and conditions set forth in the credit agreement, the automotive subsidiary may also request borrowings of delayed draw term loans for which the proceeds may be used to (i) finance the acquisition of automobile dealerships (delayed draw capital loan) and (ii) finance the acquisition of real estate (delayed draw real estate loan). The delayed draw term loan bears interest at variable rates based on SOFR plus an applicable margin based on the type of delayed draw term loan requested. The delayed draw term loan availability period terminates on September 26, 2025. The automotive subsidiary did not borrow against the delayed term loan as of September 30, 2023.

On the same date, the Company’s automotive subsidiary entered into three interest rate swap agreements with a total notional value of $75.2 million and a maturity date of September 26, 2028. The interest rate swap agreements will pay the automotive subsidiary interest on the $75.2 million notional amount bas~~ed on SOFR and the automotive subsidiary will pay the counterparty a fixed rate of 4.67% per annum. The n~~ew interest rate swap agreements were entered into to convert the variable rate borrowing under the real estate term loan into a fixed rate borrowing. Based on the terms of the new interest rate swap agreements and underlying borrowings, the new interest rate swaps were determined to be effective and thus qualify as cash flow hedges. ~~Including a 1.75% applicable margin, the overall interest rate that the Company will pay on the~~ ~~$75.2 million~~ ~~real estate term loan is fixed at 6.42% per annum.~~

The automotive subsidiary used the net proceeds from the real estate and capital term loans to repay the outstanding balances of the commercial notes maturing in 2031 and 2032. The interest rate swap agreements maturing in 2031 and 2032 were also terminated resulting in realized gains of $4.6 million that reduced interest expense during the third quarter of 2023.

The term loan is payable in quarterly installments of $1.875 million starting in December 2023 with a final payment of the principal balance due on May 30, 2027. The term loan bears interest at variable rates based on SOFR plus 1.75% per annum. The Company may redeem the term loan in whole or in part with no penalty at any

~~time. The term loan has no impact on the existing financial covenants of the revolving credit facility. The Company’s outstanding balance under its term loan was~~ ~~$149.3 million~~ ~~as of September 30,~~ 2023.

At ~~September 30, 2023~~March 31, 2024 and December 31, ~~2022,~~2023, the fair value of the Company’s 5.75% unsecured notes, based on quoted market prices (Level 2 fair value assessment), totaled ~~$387.1~~$398.1 million and ~~$395.1 million.~~$400.4 million, respectively.

(3)			Includes U.S. Government Securities, corporate bonds, mutual funds and time deposits. These investments are valued using a market approach based on the quoted market prices of the security or inputs that include quoted market prices for similar instruments and are classified as either Level 1 or Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.
(4)			Included in Accounts payable, vehicle floor plan payable and accrued liabilities and Other Liabilities. The Company determined the fair value of the contingent consideration liabilities using either a Monte Carlo simulation, Black-Scholes model, or probability-weighted analysis depending on the type of target included in the contingent consideration requirements (revenue, EBITDA, client retention). All analyses included estimated financial projections for the acquired businesses and acquisition-specific discount rates.
(5)			Included in Other Liabilities. The Company utilized a market approach model using the notional amount of the interest rate swaps multiplied by the observable inputs of time to maturity and market interest rates.
(6)			The fair value of the mandatorily redeemable noncontrolling interest is based on the fair value of the underlying subsidiaries owned by GHC One and GHC Two, after taking into account any debt and other noncontrolling interests of its subsidiary investments. The fair value of the owned subsidiaries is determined using enterprise value analyses which include an equal weighing between guideline public company and discounted cash flow analyses.
~~(7)~~			Included in Deferred charges and other assets. The Company utilized a market approach model using the notional amount of the interest rate swap multiplied by the observable inputs of time to maturity and market interest rates.

10. ~~(LOSS)~~ EARNINGS PER SHARE

The Company’s unvested restricted stock awards contain nonforfeitable rights to dividends and, therefore, are considered participating securities for purposes of computing earnings per share pursuant to the two-class method. The diluted earnings per share computed under the two-class method is lower than the diluted earnings per share computed under the treasury stock method, resulting in the presentation of the lower amount in diluted earnings per share. The computation of the earnings per share under the two-class method excludes the income attributable to the unvested restricted stock awards from the numerator and excludes the dilutive impact of those underlying shares from the denominator.

The following reflects the Company’s net ~~(loss)~~ income and share data used in the basic and diluted ~~(loss)~~ earnings per share computations using the two-class method:

Defined Benefit Plan Assets. The Company’s defined benefit pension obligations are funded by a portfolio made up of private investment funds, a U.S. stock index fund, and a relatively small number of stocks and high-quality fixed-income securities that are held by a third-party trustee. The assets of the Company’s pension plans were allocated as follows:


		As of					As of
		September 30, 2023		December 31, 2022			March 31, 2024			December 31, 2023

The Company manages approximately ~~42%~~49% of the pension assets internally, of which the majority is invested in private investment funds with the remaining investments in Berkshire Hathaway and Markel stock, a U.S. stock index fund, and short-term fixed-income securities. The remaining ~~58%~~51% of plan assets are managed by two investment companies. The goal of the investment managers is to produce moderate long-term growth in the value of these assets, while protecting them against large decreases in value. Both investment managers may invest in a combination of equity and fixed-income securities and cash. The managers are not permitted to invest in securities of the Company or in alternative investments. One investment manager cannot invest more than 15% of the assets at the time of purchase in the stock of Alphabet and Berkshire Hathaway, and no more than 35% of the assets it manages in specified international exchanges at the time the investment is made. The other investment manager cannot invest more than 20% of the assets at the time of purchase in the stock of Berkshire Hathaway, and no more than 15% of the assets it manages in specified international exchanges at the time the investment is made, and no less than ~~10%~~5% of the assets could be invested in fixed-income securities. Excluding the exceptions noted above, the investment managers cannot invest more than 10% of the assets in the securities of any other single issuer, except for obligations of the U.S. Government, without receiving prior approval from the Plan administrator.

In determining the expected rate of return on plan assets, the Company considers the relative weighting of plan assets, the historical performance of total plan assets and individual asset classes and economic and other

indicators of future performance. In addition, the Company may consult with and consider the input of financial and other professionals in developing appropriate return benchmarks.

The Company evaluated its defined benefit pension plan asset portfolio for the existence of significant concentrations (defined as greater than 10% of plan assets) of credit risk as of ~~September 30, 2023.~~March 31, 2024.

14. CONTINGENCIES

Litigation, Legal and Other Matters. The Company and its subsidiaries are subject to complaints and administrative proceedings and are defendants in various civil lawsuits that have arisen in the ordinary course of their businesses, including contract disputes; actions alleging negligence, libel, defamation and invasion of privacy; trademark, copyright and patent infringement; real estate lease and sublease disputes; violations of employment laws and applicable wage and hour laws; and statutory or common law claims involving current and former students and employees. Although the outcomes of the legal claims and proceedings against the Company cannot be predicted with certainty, based on currently available information, management believes that there are no existing claims or proceedings that are likely to have a material effect on the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. However, based on currently available information, management believes it is reasonably possible that future losses from existing and threatened legal, regulatory and other proceedings in excess of the amounts recorded could reach approximately ~~$15~~$10 million.

In 2015, Kaplan sold substantially all of the assets of the KHE Campuses (KHEC) business to Education Corporation of America. In 2018, certain subsidiaries of Kaplan contributed the institutional assets and operations of KU to a new university: an Indiana nonprofit, public-benefit corporation affiliated with Purdue University, known as Purdue University Global. Kaplan could be held liable to the current owners of KU and the KHEC schools related to the pre-sale conduct of the schools, and the pre-sale conduct of the schools has been and could be the subject of future compliance reviews, regulatory proceedings or lawsuits that could result in monetary liabilities or fines or other sanctions. On May 6, 2021, Kaplan received a notice from the Department of Education (ED) that it would be conducting a fact-finding process pursuant to the borrower defense to repayment (BDTR) regulations to determine the validity of more than 800 BDTR claims and a request for documents related to several of Kaplan’s previously owned schools. Beginning in July 2021, Kaplan started receiving the claims and related information requests. In total, Kaplan received 1,449 borrower defense applications that seek discharge of approximately $35 million in loans, excluding interest. Most claims received are from former KU students. The ED’s process for adjudicating these claims is subject to the borrower defense regulations including those finalized in 2022 and effective July 1, 2023, but it is not clear to what extent the ED will exclude claims based on the underlying statutes of limitations, evidence provided by Kaplan, or any prior investigation related to schools attended by the student applicants. Compared to the previous rule, the new rule in part, expands actions that can give rise to claims for discharge; provides that the borrower’s claim will be presumed true if the institution does not provide any responsive evidence; provides an easier process for group claims; and relies on current program review penalty hearing processes for discharge recoupment. Under the rule, the recoupment process applies only to loans first disbursed after July 1, 2023; however, the discharge process and standards apply to any pending application regardless of loan date. Kaplan believes it has defenses that would bar any student discharge or school liability including that the claims are barred by the applicable statute of limitations, unproven, incomplete and fail to meet regulatory filing requirements. Kaplan expects to vigorously defend any attempt by the ED to hold Kaplan liable for any ultimate student discharges and has responded to all claims with documentary and narrative evidence to refute the allegations, demonstrate their lack of merit, and support the denial of all such claims by the ED. If the claims are successful, the ED may seek reimbursement for the amount discharged from Kaplan. If the ED initiates a reimbursement action against Kaplan following approval of former students’ BDTR applications, Kaplan may be subject to significant liability. In November 2022 the Northern District of California approved the settlement agreement in the lawsuit ~~Sweet v. Cardona~~. The Plaintiffs in that lawsuit claimed that the ED failed to properly consider and decide pending BDTR claims. As part of the settlement, the ED agreed to discharge loans of borrowers who attended 150 specific schools, including schools formerly owned by Kaplan, and who had BDTR claims pending as of the June 22, 2022 settlement execution date. This discharge will likely cover each of the 1,449 applications the ED sent to Kaplan and to which

Kaplan responded. The ED and the Court made clear that these discharges as part of a settlement are not determinations that the pending BDTR claims are valid and the fact of the settlement discharge cannot be used as evidence of any determination of wrongdoing by the institutions. However, despite the fact that the loans are discharged per the settlement, the ED may still attempt to separately adjudicate the associated BDTR claims and follow the regulatory process for seeking recoupment from the institutions for such claims. On October 27, 2022, the ED released a final rule that among other things, changes the Title IV definition of “Nonprofit” institution to generally exclude from that definition any institution that is an obligor on a debt owed to a former owner of the institution or that maintains a revenue-based service agreement with a former owner of the institution. The final rule had an effective date of July 1, 2023 and could subject Purdue Global to additional regulatory requirements.

15. BUSINESS SEGMENTS

In the second quarter of 2023, Kaplan modified its segment reporting for Kaplan India, a shared services center that supports Higher Education. Kaplan India was previously included in Kaplan corporate and other. Certain amounts in previously issued financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current presentation.

The Company has seven reportable segments: Kaplan International, Kaplan Higher Education, Kaplan Supplemental Education, Television Broadcasting, Manufacturing, Healthcare and Automotive.

As of March 31, 2024, Kaplan had a total outstanding accounts receivable balance of $105.9 million from Purdue Global related to amounts due for reimbursements for services, fees earned and a deferred fee. Included in this total, Kaplan has a $19.6 million long-term receivable balance due from Purdue Global at March 31, 2024, related to the advance of $20.0 million during the initial KU Transaction.

During the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, the automotive group recorded expense of $2.0 million and $1.7 million, respectively, for operating and management services provided by Christopher J. Ourisman and his team of industry professionals.

The Company continuously assesses relevant events and circumstances to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. In the third quarter of 2023, the Company performed an interim impairment review at the Dekko, WGB and Framebridge reporting units.

As a result of continued sustained weakness in demand for certain Dekko power and data products primarily in the commercial office space market, the Company recorded a $47.8 million goodwill impairment charge at Dekko. After the impairment charge, no goodwill remains at the Dekko reporting unit, which is included in manufacturing.

As a result of the substantial digital advertising revenue declines and continued significant operating losses at WGB, the Company recorded a $50.2 million goodwill impairment charge to the reporting unit, which is included in other businesses. After the impairment charge, $7.5 million of goodwill remains at the WGB reporting unit.

The quantitative goodwill impairment analysis at Framebridge indicated the estimated fair value of the reporting unit, included in other businesses, exceeded its carrying value as of September 30, 2023. The estimated fair value of Framebridge exceeded its carrying value by a margin less than 10%. The total goodwill at this reporting unit was $60.9 million as of September 30, 2023, or 4% of the total goodwill of the Company.

The interest on the $400.0 million of 5.75% unsecured notes is payable semiannually on June 1 and December 1.

During the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~September 30,~~March 31, 2024 and 2023, ~~and 2022,~~ the Company had average borrowings outstanding of approximately ~~$737.1~~$810.7 million and ~~$676.5~~$735.0 million, respectively, at average annual interest rates of approximately ~~6.0%~~6.4% and ~~4.6%~~5.8%, respectively. During the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~September 30,~~March 31, 2024 and 2023, ~~and 2022,~~ the Company incurred net interest expense of ~~$33.1~~$17.2 million and ~~$36.8~~$13.1 million, respectively.

~~On July 28,~~ Included in the interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 is $1.9 million and $1.5 million, respectively, to adjust the ~~Company entered into a $150 million term loan with each~~fair value of the lenders party thereto, Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., JPMorgan Chase Bank N.A., Bank of America, N.A., HSBC Bank USA, N.A., and PNC Bank, N.A. The term loan is payable in quarterly installments of $1.875 million starting in December 2023 with a final payment of the principal balance due on May 30, 2027. The term loan bearsmandatorily redeemable noncontrolling interest ~~at variable rates based on~~ ~~Secured Overnight Financing Rate (~~SOFR) plus 1.75% per annum. The Company may redeem the term loan in whole or in part with no penalty at any time. The term loan has no impact on the existing financial covenants of the revolving credit facility.(see Note 7).

On ~~September 26, 2023,~~April 2, 2024, Standard & Poor’s affirmed the Company’s ~~automotive subsidiary entered into a~~ credit ~~agreement with Truist Bank, which includes (i) a $75.2 million real estate term loan, (ii) a $65.0 million capital term loan, (iii) a $50.0 million delayed draw term loan,~~rating and ~~(iv) establishment of a revolving floor plan credit facility. The real estate term loan is payable in monthly installments of $0.3 million and bears interest at variable rates based on SOFR plus 1.75% per annum, and~~maintained the capital term loan is payable in monthly installments of $0.5 million and bears interest at variable rates based on SOFR plus 2.00% per annum. The monthly installment payments on the real estate and capital term loans commence on November 1, 2023, with final payments of the outstanding principal balances due on September 26, 2028. Subject to terms and conditions set forth in the credit agreement, the automotive subsidiary may also request borrowings of delayed draw term loans for which the proceeds may be used to (i) finance the acquisition of automobile dealerships (delayed draw capital loan) and (ii) finance the acquisition of real estate (delayed draw real estate loan). The delayed draw term loan bears interest at variable rates based on SOFR plus an applicable margin based on the type of delayed draw term loan requested. The delayed draw term loan availability period terminates on September 26, 2025. The automotive subsidiary did not borrow against the delayed term loanoutlook as ~~of September 30, 2023.~~

On the same date, the Company’s automotive subsidiary entered into three interest rate swap agreements with a total notional value of $75.2 million and a maturity date of September 26, 2028. The interest rate swap agreements will pay the automotive subsidiary interest on the $75.2 million notional amount bas~~ed on SOFR and the automotive subsidiary will pay the counterparty a fixed rate of 4.67% per annum. The n~~ew interest rate swap agreements were entered into to convert the variable rate borrowing under the real estate term loan into a fixed rate borrowing. Based on the terms of the new interest rate swap agreements and underlying borrowings, the new interest rate swaps were determined to be effective and thus qualify as cash flow hedges. Including a 1.75% applicable margin, the overall interest rate that the Company will pay on the $75.2 million real estate term loan is fixed at 6.42% per annum.

~~The automotive subsidiary used the net proceeds from the real estate and capital term loans~~ ~~to finance the acquisition of the Toyota of Richmond dealership and~~ to repay the outstanding balances of the commercial notes maturing 2031 and 2032. The interest rate swap agreements maturing in 2031 and 2032 were also terminated resulting in realized gains of $4.6 million that reduced interest expense during the third quarter of 2023.

Stable. On August 17, 2023, Moody’s affirmed the Company’s credit rating and maintained the outlook as Stable. ~~On April 4, 2023, Standard & Poor’s affirmed the Company’s credit rating and maintained the outlook as Stable.~~

For the first ~~nine~~three months of ~~2023~~2024 compared to the first ~~nine~~three months of ~~2022,~~2023, the ~~small~~ decrease in net cash provided by operating activities is primarily driven by ~~lower net income, after adjusting for non-cash activities, offset by~~ a decrease in customer collections and ~~vendor payments~~higher purchases of inventories in ~~2023~~2024 compared to 2022 . The change in non-cash activities is largely the result of fluctuations in the share prices of the Company’s investments in marketable equity securities which resulted in a gain in 2023 compared to a loss in 2022.
