NOTES TO CONSOLIDATEDCONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)


1.

Basis of Presentation


Our financial statements and accompanying notes are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States ("(“U.S. GAAP"GAAP”).  In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated financial statements of Tivity Health®, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (collectively, "Tivity“Tivity Health," the "Company,"“Company,” or such terms as "we," "us,"“we,” “us,” or "our"“our”) reflect all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair statement.  We have reclassified certain items in prior periods to conform to current classifications.


Our results from continuing operations do not include the results of the total population health services ("TPHS"(“TPHS”) business, which we sold to Sharecare, Inc. (“Sharecare”) effective July 31, 2016.  The TPHS business included our partnerships with Blue Zones, LLC and Dr. Dean Ornish (the Blue Zones Project by Healthways™ and Dr. Dean Ornish's Program for Reversing Heart Disease™, respectively), our joint venture with Gallup, Inc. ("Gallup"), Navvis Healthcare, LLC ("Navvis"), MeYou Health, LLC ("MeYou Health"), and our international operations, including our joint venture with SulAméricaWhile Navvis and MeYou Health were part of our TPHS business, they were sold separately to other buyers in November 2015 and June 2016, respectively.  Results of operations for the TPHS business have been classified as discontinued operations for all periods presented in the accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements.consolidated financial statements.  See Note 34 for further information.


On March 11, 2015, we formed a joint venture with SulAmérica, one of the largest independent insurers in Brazil, to sell total population health services to the Brazilian market. With its contribution, SulAmérica acquired a 49% interest in the joint venture, Healthways Brasil Servicos de Consultoria LTDA ("Healthways Brazil"). We determined that our interest in Healthways Brazil represented a controlling financial interest and, therefore, prior to selling the TPHS business, consolidated the financial statements of Healthways Brazil and presented a non-controlling interest for the portion owned by SulAmérica. The net assets and results of operations of Healthways Brazil were part of the sale of the TPHS business and are included within discontinued operations in the accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements.

We have omitted certain financial information that is normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP but that is not required for interim reporting purposes.  You should read the accompanying consolidated financial statements in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016.

Recent Relevant Accounting StandardsAccounting Standards


In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2014-09, which creates

On January 1, 2018, we adopted Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC"(“ASC”) Topic 606, "Revenue“Revenue from Contracts with Customers" ("Customers” (“ASC Topic 606"606”) and supersedes ASC Topic 605, "Revenue Recognition." The provisions of ASC Topic 606 provide for a single comprehensive principles-based standard for the recognition of revenue across all industries and expanded disclosure about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue, as well as certain additional quantitative and qualitative disclosures. The standard is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those years. The guidance permits the use of either a full retrospective or modified retrospective transition method. We expect to adopt the standard using the modified retrospective transition method, pursuant to which would require the cumulative effect of initially applying the standardwe applied ASC Topic 606 to be recognized as an adjustment to beginning retained earnings(i) all new contracts entered into after January 1, 2018 and (ii) contracts that were not completed as of January 1, 2018.  We are currently conducting analysisIn accordance with this approach, our results for periods prior to quantifyJanuary 1, 2018 were not revised and continue to be reported in accordance with our historical accounting under ASC Topic 605, “Revenue Recognition.”  For contracts that were modified prior to January 1, 2018, we have not retrospectively restated the adoptioncontract for those modifications in accordance with the contract modification guidance in ASC 606-10-25-12 and ASC 606-10-25-13 but instead, using the practical expedient available under ASC 606-10-65-1(f)(4), have reflected the aggregate effect of all modifications when identifying the satisfied and unsatisfied performance obligations, determining the transaction price, and allocating the transaction price.

The cumulative impact of the provisionsour adoption of the new standardASC Topic 606 was not material to record as of January 1, 2018, and evaluatingthere was no material impact on our current contracts and revenue streams. Weconsolidated income statement, balance sheet, or cash flows.  For example, we do not expecthave any material contract assets or contract liabilities as defined under ASC Topic 606.  In addition, the cumulative adjustmentincremental costs of obtaining a contract with a customer (for example, sales commissions) that would have been recognized as an asset on January 1, 2018 were not material to record.  See Note 3 for a further discussion of revenue recognition.

On January 1, 2018, we adopted Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-15, “Statement of Cash Flows” (Topic 230) (“ASU 2016-15”).  ASU 2016-15 addresses how certain cash receipts and cash payments are presented and classified in the statement of cash flows and is to be applied using a retrospective approach.  The adoption of this standard did not have a material effectimpact on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.  We believedisclosures and did not result in a reclassification to items in prior periods.

On January 1, 2018, we are following an appropriate timelineadopted ASU No. 2017-09, “Compensation-Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Scope of Modification Accounting” (“ASU 2017-09”), which clarifies when changes to allowthe terms or conditions of a share-based payment award must be accounted for proper recognition, presentation and disclosure upon adoption effectiveas modifications.  ASU 2017-09 is to be applied prospectively to awards modified on or after January 1, 2018.  The adoption of this standard did not have an impact on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In February 2016, the FASBFinancial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU No. 2016-02, "Leases" ("“Leases”(“ASU 2016-02"2016-02” or “ASC 842”), which requires that lessees recognize assets and liabilities for leases with lease terms greater than twelve months in the statement of financial position.position, and will be effective for us on January 1, 2019. ASU 2016-02 also requires improved disclosures to help users of financial statements better understand the amount, timing and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. The update is effectiveASC 842 originally required entities to use a modified retrospective transition method in which companies would initially apply ASC 842 and recognize an adjustment for fiscal yearsthe effects of the transition as of the beginning after December 15,of the earliest comparative period presented (January 1, 2017 for the Company). In July 2018, including interim reporting periods within those years. We are currently

evaluating the impact that the adoption of ASU 2016-02 will have on our financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-09, "Compensation-Stock Compensation2018-11, “Leases (Topic 718)842): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting" ("ASU 2016-09")Targeted Improvements”, which we adopted on January 1, 2017.  ASU 2016-09 requires all income tax effectsamends ASC 842 to allow entities to change the date of share-based awardsinitial application to be recognized in the income statement, which were previously presented as a component of shareholders' equity, on a prospective basis.  In addition, any excess tax benefits that were not previously recognized because the related tax deduction had not reduced current taxes payable are to be recorded on a modified retrospective basis through a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the period of adoption which resulted in(January 1, 2019 for the Company), with no requirement to recast comparative periods.  We have elected to apply ASC 842 as of January 1, 2019 and to recognize the cumulative effect of initially applying the standard as an increase of $6.5 millionadjustment to ourbeginning retained earnings as of January 1, 2017.  Regarding the statement of cash flows, the standard requires the presentation of excess tax benefits as an operating activity rather than as a financing activity and that cash paid by the Company when directly withholding shares for tax withholding purposes be classified as a financing activity on a retrospective basis. The standard also allows for an accounting policy election to estimate the number of awards that are expected to vest or to account for forfeitures when they occur. We elected to account for forfeitures as they occur, which did not result in a material cumulative effect adjustment to our retained earnings as of January 1, 2017.  Finally, the standard no longer allows windfall tax benefits to be included in the assumed proceeds when applying the treasury stock method for computing diluted earnings per share ("EPS"), which results in share-based awards having a more dilutive effect on EPS.

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-15, "Statement of Cash Flows" (Topic 230) ("ASU 2016-15").  ASU 2016-15 addresses how certain cash receipts and cash payments are presented and classified in the statement of cash flows. ASU 2016-15 is effective in the first quarter of 2018, with early adoption permitted, and is to be applied using a retrospective approach.2019.  We are currently evaluatingconducting analysis to quantify the potential effectsadoption impact of adopting the provisions of ASU 2016-15.

the new standard and evaluating our current leases. We believe we are following an appropriate timeline to allow for proper recognition, presentation and disclosure upon adoption effective January 1, 2019.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-04, "Intangibles “Intangibles - Goodwill and Other" ("Other” (“ASU 2017-04"2017-04”), which simplifies the subsequent measurement of goodwill by eliminating step two from the goodwill impairment test.  ASU 2017-04 is effective for annual and interim impairment tests in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019 and is required to be applied prospectively. Early adoption is allowed for annual goodwill impairment tests performed on testing dates after January 1, 2017. We do not anticipate that adopting this standard will have an impact on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.


In May 2017,August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-09, "Compensation-Stock Compensation2018-13, “Fair Value Measurement (Topic 718)820): Scope of Modification Accounting" ("Disclosure Framework – Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement” (“ASU 2017-09"2018-13”), which provides guidance about which changes to the terms or conditionsfair value measurement disclosure requirements of a share-based payment award require an entity to apply modification accounting in ASC Topic 718.  The update820.  ASU 2018-13 is effective for fiscal years beginning on or after December 15, 2017,2019, including interim reporting periods within those years, with earlytherein, and is generally required to be applied retrospectively, except for certain components that are to be applied prospectively.  Early adoption permitted.is permitted for any eliminated or modified disclosures.

Revenue Recognition

Beginning in 2018, we account for revenue from contracts with customers in accordance with ASC Topic 606.  The unit of account in ASC Topic 606 is a performance obligation, which is a promise in a contract to transfer to a customer either a distinct good or service (or bundle of goods or services) or a series of distinct goods or services provided over a period of time. ASC Topic 606 requires that a contract's transaction price, which is the amount of consideration to which an entity expects to be entitled in exchange for transferring promised goods or services to a customer, is to be allocated to each performance obligation in the contract based on relative standalone selling prices and recognized as revenue when or as the performance obligation is satisfied.

We earn revenue from our three programs, SilverSneakers® senior fitness, Prime® Fitness and WholeHealth LivingTM.  We provide the SilverSneakers senior fitness program to members of Medicare Advantage and Medicare Supplement plans through our contracts with such plans.  We offer Prime Fitness, a fitness facility access program, through contracts with employers, commercial health plans, and other sponsoring organizations that allow their members to individually purchase the program.  We sell our WholeHealth Living program primarily to health plans.

The significant majority of our customer contracts contain one performance obligation - to stand ready to provide access to our network of fitness locations and fitness programming - which is satisfied over time as services are rendered each month over the contract term.  There are generally no performance obligations that are unsatisfied at the end of a particular month.  There was no material revenue recognized during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018 from performance obligations satisfied in a prior period.

Our fees are variable month to month and are generally billed per member per month (“PMPM”) or billed based on a combination of PMPM and member visits to a network location.  We bill PMPM fees by multiplying the contractually negotiated PMPM rate by the number of members eligible for or receiving our services during the month.  We bill for member visits approximately one month in arrears once actual member visits are known.  Payments from customers are typically due within 30 days of invoice date.  When material, we capitalize costs to obtain contracts with customers and amortize them over the expected recovery period. 

9


Our customer contracts include variable consideration, which is allocated to each distinct month over the contract term based on eligible members and/or member visits each month.  The allocated consideration corresponds directly with the value to our customers of our services completed for the month.  Under the majority of our contracts, we recognize revenue each month using the practical expedient available under ASC 606-10-55-18, which provides that revenue is recognized in the amount for which we have the right to invoice. 

Although we evaluate our financial performance and make resource allocation decisions based upon the results of our single operating and reportable segment, we believe the following information depicts how our revenues and cash flows are affected by economic factors.  For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, revenue from our SilverSneakers program, which is predominantly contracted with Medicare Advantage and Medicare Supplement plans, comprised approximately 81% of our consolidated revenues, while revenue from our Prime Fitness and WholeHealth Living programs comprised approximately 16% and 3%, respectively, of our consolidated revenues.

Sales and usage-based taxes are excluded from revenues.

Discontinued Operations

On July 27, 2016, we entered into a Membership Interest Purchase Agreement (the "Purchase Agreement"“Purchase Agreement”) with Sharecare Inc. ("Sharecare") and Healthways SC, LLC, ("Healthways SC"), a newly formed Delaware limited liability company and wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, pursuant to which Sharecare acquired the TPHS business, which closed effective July 31, 2016 ("Closing"(“Closing”).


At Closing, Sharecare delivered to the Company an Adjustable Convertible Equity Right (the "ACER"“ACER”) with an initial face value of $30.0 million, which will bemillion.  The ACER became convertible into shares of common stock of Sharecare 24 months after Closingon July 31, 2018 at an initial conversion price of $249.87 per share, subject to customary adjustment for stock splits, stock dividends and other reorganizations of Sharecare.   Additionally, pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, we paid Sharecare $25.0 million in cash at Closing to fund projected losses of the TPHS business during the year following Closing (the "Transition Year"). 


The Purchase Agreement provided for post-closing adjustments based on, (i) net working capital (which resulted in an increase in the face amount of the ACER due to a net working capital surplus, as further discussed below), (ii) negative cash flows of the TPHS business during the Transition Year in excess of $25.0 million (which

11


could have resulted in a reduction in the face amount of the ACER up to a maximum reduction of $20.0 million but did not result in any reduction, as further discussed below), and (iii)among other things, any successful claims for indemnification by Sharecare (which may resulthave resulted in a reduction in the face amount of the ACER, unless the Company elects, in its sole discretion, to satisfy any such successful claims with cash payments).
During the year ended December 31, 2016, we recorded the ACER net, none of the $20.0 million face value maximum negative cash flow adjustment, or $10.0 million face value, at its estimated fair value of $2.7 million as of Closing.  In May 2017, we entered into an agreement with Sharecare regarding the final working capital amount delivered at Closing, which resulted in a final net working capital surplus of $9.8 million and a corresponding increase to the face value of the ACER (per the terms of the Purchase Agreement), bringing the adjusted face value of the ACER to $39.8 million.  We recorded the $9.8 million of additional face value at its estimated fair value of $2.6 million in May 2017.  Finally, in September 2017, Sharecare indicated that the contingency was resolved with respect to the portion of the ACER (having a face value of $20.0 million) subject to the negative cash flows adjustment described above, and we recorded it at its estimated fair value of $5.5 million.  Therefore,such claims had been made as of September 30, 2018.

10


At September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, we have recorded the $39.8 million face value of the ACER at an estimated carrying value of $10.8 million, which iswas classified as an equity receivable included in other long-term assets.


Pursuant to Sharecare's acquisitionUpon conversion of the TPHS business, our ownership interestACER in October 2018, we obtained 159,309 shares of Sharecare common stock.  There are certain restrictions related to selling or transferring this stock. These shares may not be sold or otherwise transferred except (i) for cash subject to the joint ventureright of first refusal by Sharecare and/or one or more of its shareholders (in each case, at their option), or (ii) with Gallup (the "Gallup Joint Venture") was transferredthe consent of Sharecare’s shareholders holding at least a majority of Sharecare stock, or (iii) pursuant to Sharecare. We agreed with Sharecare to be responsible for two-thirds of the remaining payment obligations in respect of the purchase price to be paid in connection with Sharecare's acquisition of additional membership interest in the Gallup Joint Venture.  As of September 30, 2017, the remaining obligation totaled $0.8 million and was included in accrued liabilities.

The terms of the Purchase Agreement also impactedcertain other existing contractual commitments, including the elimination of the minimum fee requirements under our technology services outsourcing agreement with HP Enterprise Services, LLC.

5.Income Taxes

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, we had an effective income tax rate from continuing operations of 34.3% and 35.8%, respectively, each of which was favorably impacted by the tax benefits of share-based awards following the adoption of ASU 2016-09 on January 1, 2017.

For the three months ended September 30, 2016, we had income tax expense from continuing operations of $13.1 million related to pre-tax income of $17.9 million, or an respectively.  The lower effective income tax rate of 73.2%. This was comprised of income tax expense for the third quarter of 2016 as well as $15.6 million of incremental tax expense related to the first half of 2016,in 2018 is primarily a period in which no income tax provision was recorded due to tax benefits on losses generated by discontinued operations, as further explained below.  These amounts of income tax expense were partially offset by an income tax benefit of $9.6 million related to a reversal of a domestic deferred tax asset valuation allowance initially recorded in the fourth quarter of 2015.  We believe that projected core earningsresult of the remaining Network Solutions business will be sufficient to utilize the net operating losses within the expiration period.  

We did not record income tax expense during the first halfTax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2016 because we followed the intra-period tax allocation guidance in ASC 740-20 and the example in ASC 740-20-55-14, which requires that the amount of tax attributable to the current year income from continuing operations be determined by a computation that does not consider the tax effects of items that are excluded from income from continuing operations (e.g. discontinued operations)2017 (the “Tax Act”).  We had net operating loss carryforwards from 2015 subject to a valuation allowance at December 31, 2015, which, upon reversal of the valuation allowance in the first six months of 2016, we utilized to offset income from continuing operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2016, we had an effective tax income tax rate from continuing operations of 23.0%, primarily due to the inclusion of an income tax benefit of $9.6 million related to a reversal of a domestic deferred tax asset valuation allowance, as discussed above.

At September 30, 2017,2018, we had approximately $97.2$16.9 million of federal loss carryforwards, approximately $146.8$72.2 million of state loss carryforwards, and approximately $9.7$4.7 million of foreign tax credits.


We file income tax returns in the U.S. Federal jurisdiction and in various state and foreign jurisdictions.  Our 2014 Federal income tax return is currently under IRS examination.  Tax years remaining subject to examination in the U.S. Federal jurisdiction include 20142015 to present.

Credit Facility


On June 8, 2012, we entered into the Fifth Amended and Restated Revolving Credit and Term Loan Agreement (as amended, the "Prior Credit Agreement").  For further description of the Prior Credit Agreement, please see footnote 7 in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2016.

On April 21, 2017, we entered into a new Revolving Credit and Term Loan Agreement (the "Credit Agreement"Credit Agreement”) with a group of lenders, whichlenders.  The Credit Agreement replaced the Priorprior Fifth Amended and Restated Revolving Credit Agreement.and Term Loan Agreement (the “Prior Credit Agreement”).  The Credit Agreement provides us with (1) a $100 million revolving credit facility that includes a $25 million sublimit for swingline loans and a $75 million sublimit for letters of credit, (2) a $70 million term loan A facility, (3) a $150 million delayed draw term loan facility, and (4) an uncommitted incremental accordion facility of $100 million.


We used the proceeds of the term loan A and cash on hand to repay all of the outstanding indebtedness under the Prior Credit Agreement and to pay transaction costs and expenses.  Proceeds of revolving loans and delayed draw term loans may be used to repay outstanding indebtedness (including amounts payable upon or inwith respect ofto any conversion of the Cash Convertible Notes discussed below and the repayment of any revolving loans borrowed for such purposes), to finance working capital needs, to finance acquisitions, to finance the repurchase of our common stock, to finance capital expenditures and for other general corporate purposes of the Company and its subsidiaries.  DelayedAs further detailed below under “1.50% Cash Convertible Senior Notes Due 2018”, on July 2, 2018, we borrowed $100.0 million under the delayed draw term loansloan, which was used to repay the principal amount of the Cash Convertible Notes.  No additional amounts may not be borrowed under the delayed draw term after July 2, 2018.


13


We are required to repay the term loan A and any outstanding revolving loans in full on April 21, 2022.The term loan A was repaid in full during 2017 and may not be re-borrowed.  We are required to repay the delayed draw term loansloan in quarterly principal installments calculated as follows: (1) for each of the first twelvesix quarters following the closing,time of borrowing (beginning with the fourth quarter of 2018 and ending with the first quarter of 2020), 1.250% of the aggregate principal amount of the delayed draw term loansloan funded as of the last day of the immediately preceding quarter; and (2) for each of the remaining quarters prior to maturity on April 21, 2022, 1.875% of the aggregate principal amount of the delayed draw term loansloan funded as of the last day of the immediately preceding quarter.  At maturity on April 21, 2022, the entire unpaid principal balancesbalance of the term loan A and the delayed draw term loans are due and payable. As of September 30, 2017, we had not borrowed any amounts under the delayed draw term loan is due and payable. During the third quarter of 2018, we paid down $55.0 million on the delayed draw term loan, which satisfied all of the mandatory principal payments described in items 1 and 2 above and further reduced the principal balance due at maturity.  No further principal payments are required until maturity.  As of September 30, 2018, availability under the revolving credit facility totaled $92.8$86.9 million.


Borrowings under the Credit Agreement generally bear interest at variable rates based on a margin or spread in excess of either (1) the one-month, two-month, three-month or six-month LIBOR rate (or with the approval of affected lenders, the twelve-month LIBOR rate)12-month LIBOR), which may not be less than zero, or (2) the greatest of (a) the SunTrust Bank prime lending rate, (b) the federal funds rate plus 0.50%, and (c) one-month LIBOR plus 1.00% (the "Base Rate"“Base Rate”), as selected by the Company.  The LIBOR margin varies between 1.50% and 2.75%, and the Base Rate margin varies between 0.50% and 1.75%, depending on our net leverage ratio.  The Credit Agreement also provides for annual commitment fees ranging between 0.20% and 0.50% of the unused commitments under the revolving credit facility and the delayed draw term loan facility.facility and annual letter of credit fees on the daily outstanding availability under outstanding letters of credit at the applicable LIBOR margin.  Extensions of credit under the Credit Agreement are secured by guarantees from all of the Company'sCompany’s active material domestic subsidiaries and by security interests in substantially all of the Company'sCompany’s and such subsidiaries'subsidiaries’ assets.


15


The Credit Agreement contains financial covenants that require us to maintain, as defined, (1) specified maximum ratios or levels of (1) funded debt to EBITDA and (2) a specified minimum ratio or level of fixed charge coverage. The Credit Agreement also contains various other affirmative and negative covenants that are typical for financings of this type.  Among other things, they limit repurchases of our common stock and the amount of dividends that we can pay to holders of our common stock.


1.50% Cash Convertible Senior Notes Due 2018


On July 16, 2013, we completed the issuance of $150.0 million aggregate principal amount of cash convertible senior notes due July 2018 (the "Cash“Cash Convertible Notes"Notes”), which bearbore interest at a rate of 1.50% per year, payable semiannually in arrears on January 1 and July 1 of each year, beginning on January 1, 2014. The Cash Convertible Notes will maturematured on July 1,2, 2018.  All of the holders elected to convert their Cash Convertible Notes for settlement on July 2, 2018, unless earlierand none of the Cash Convertible Notes were repurchased or converted into cash in accordance with their terms prior to such date.  Accordingly, we have classified the Cash Convertible Notes, net of the unamortized discount, and related deferred loan costs as a current liability at September 30, 2017 and as long-term debt at December 31, 2016.


At the option of the holders, the Cash Convertible Notes are convertible into cash based on the conversion rate set forth below only upon occurrence of certain triggering events as defined in the indenture dated as of July 8, 2013 by and between the Company and U.S. Bank National Association, none of which had occurred as of December 31, 2016 and one of which had occurred as of September 30, 2017, as further detailed below.

The Cash Convertible Notes become convertible into cash during any calendar quarter (and only during such calendar quarter), if the last reported sale price of the Company's common stock for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) during a period of 30 consecutive trading days ending on the last trading day of the immediately preceding calendar quarter is greater than or equal to approximately $25.30 per share ("Trading Price Condition"). The Trading Price Condition was satisfied on September 15, 2017 for the calendar quarter ended September 30, 2017, and accordingly, the Cash Convertible Notes are convertible at any time at the option of the holders during the period from October 1, 2017 through December 31, 2017. The initial cash conversion rate is 51.3769 shares of the Company's common stock per $1,000 principal amount of the Cash Convertible Notes (equivalent to an initial conversion price of $19.4640 per share of common stock). The settlement on any Cash Convertible Notes surrendered for conversion during this period will occur on the third business day following the end of the applicable "Observation Period" with respect to such conversion (i.e., the period that begins on the date that a holder surrendered the Cash Convertible Notes for conversion in accordance with the requirements of the indenture and ends on the 80th consecutive trading day following such date). The indenture requires the Company to satisfy the entire settlement amount for any conversions (determined in accordance with the provisions of the indenture) in cash, and the notes are not convertible into the Company's common stock or any other securities under any circumstances.

 The Cash Convertible Notes are our senior unsecured obligations and rank senior in right of payment to any of our indebtedness that is expressly subordinated in right of payment to the Cash Convertible Notes. As a result of this transaction, we recognized deferred loan costs of approximately $3.9 million, which are being amortized over the term of the Cash Convertible Notes using the effective interest method.

The cash conversion feature of the Cash Convertible Notes iswas a derivative liability (the "Cash“Cash Conversion Derivative"Derivative”) that requiresrequired bifurcation from the Cash Convertible Notes in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 815, "Derivatives“Derivatives and Hedging" ("Hedging” (“ASC Topic 815"815”), and iswas carried at fair value.  At December 31, 2016, because the Cash Convertible Notes were classified as long-term debt, the Cash Conversion Derivative was classified as a long-term liability.  Due to the classification of the Cash Convertible Notes as a current liability at September 30, 2017, the Cash Conversion Derivative is recorded in current liabilities at September 30, 2017.  The fair value of the Cash Conversion Derivative at the time of issuance of the Cash Convertible Notes was $36.8 million, which was recorded as a debt discount for purposes of accounting for the debt component of the Cash Convertible Notes.

The debt discount is beingwas amortized over the term of the Cash Convertible Notes using the effective interest method.  For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, we recorded $0 and $4.1 million, respectively, of interest expense related to the amortization of the debt discount based upon an effective interest rate of 5.7%.  For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, we recorded $2.0 million and $5.9 million, respectively, of interest expense related to the amortization of the debt discount based upon an effective interest rate of 5.7%.  The net carrying amountWe also recognized interest expense of $0 and $1.1 million for the Cash Convertible Notes atthree and nine months ended September 30, 2018, respectively, and interest expense of $0.6 million and $1.7 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, and December 31, 2016 was $143.8 million and $137.9 million, respectively, netrelated to the contractual interest rate of the unamortized discount of $6.2 million and $12.1 million, respectively.

1.50% per year.

14


In connection with the issuance of the Cash Convertible Notes, we entered into privately negotiated convertible note hedge transactions (the "Cash“Cash Convertible Notes Hedges"Hedges”), which arewere cash-settled and are

16


were intended to reduce our exposure to potential cash payments that we would be required to make if holders electelected to convert the Cash Convertible Notes at a time when our stock price exceedsexceeded the conversion price. The initial cost of the Cash Convertible Notes Hedges was $36.8 million. At December 31, 2016, because the Cash Convertible Notes were classified as long-term debt, the Cash Convertible Notes Hedges were classified as long-term assets.  Due to the classification of the Cash Convertible Notes as a current liability at September 30, 2017, the Cash Convertible Notes Hedges are classified in current assets at September 30, 2017. The Cash Convertible Notes Hedges arewere recorded as a derivative asset under ASC Topic 815 and arewere carried at fair value.  See Note 9 for additional information regarding the Cash Convertible Notes Hedges and the Cash Conversion Derivative and their fair values.

On July 2, 2018, we repaid the $150.0 million aggregate principal amount of the Cash Convertible Notes using a combination of available cash and proceeds from borrowings under the delayed draw term loan facility of $100.0 million.  In addition, on July 2, 2018 we settled the Cash Conversion Derivative of $141.2 million, which was fully funded by payments made by the counterparties for the settlement of the Cash Convertible Notes Hedges.

In July 2013, we also sold separate privately negotiated warrants (the "Warrants"“Warrants”) initially relating, in the aggregate, to a notional number ofapproximately 7.7 million shares of our common stock underlying the Cash Convertible Notes Hedges. The Warrants have an initial strike price of approximately $25.95 per share, which effectively increasedshare.  Beginning on October 1, 2018, the conversion priceWarrants are subject to automatic exercise on a pro rata basis each trading day continuing for a period of the Cash Convertible Notes160 trading days (i.e., approximately 48,000 warrants are subject to a 60% premium to our stock priceautomatic exercise on July 1, 2013.each trading day).  The Warrants will beare net share settled by our issuing a number of shares of our common stock per Warrant with a value corresponding to the excess of the market price per share of our common stock (as measured on each warrant exercise date under the terms of the Warrants) over the applicable strike price of the Warrants. The Warrants meet the definition of derivatives under the guidance in ASC Topic 815; however, because these instruments have been determined to be indexed to our own stock and meet the criteria for equity classification under ASC Topic 815, the Warrants have been accounted for as an adjustment to our additional paid-in-capital.


When the market valueprice per share of our common stock exceeds the strike price of the Warrants, the Warrants have a dilutive effect on net income per share, and the "treasury stock"“treasury stock” method is used in calculating the dilutive effect on earnings per share.  See Note 1011 for additional information on such dilutive effect.

Commitments and

Commitments and Contingencies


Summary

On November 6, 2017, United Healthcare issued a press release announcing expansion of its fitness benefits (“United Press Release”), and the market price of the Company's shares of common stock dropped on that same day. In connection with the United Press Release, three lawsuits have been filed against the Company as described below.  We are currently not able to predict the probable outcome of these matters or to reasonably estimate a range of potential losses, if any.  We intend to vigorously defend ourselves against all three complaints.

Weiner, Denham, and Allen Lawsuits

On November 20, 2017, Eric Weiner, claiming to be a stockholder of the Company, filed a complaint on behalf of stockholders who purchased the Company's common stock between February 24, 2017 and November 3, 2017 (“Weiner Lawsuit”).  The Weiner Lawsuit was filed as a class action in the U.S. District Court for the Middle District of Tennessee, naming as defendants the Company, the Company's chief executive officer, chief financial officer and a former executive who served as both chief accounting officer and interim chief financial officer.  The complaint alleges that the defendants violated Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) and Rule 10b-5 promulgated under the Exchange Act in making false and misleading statements and omissions related to the United Press Release.  The complaint seeks monetary damages on behalf of the purported class.  On April 3, 2018, the Court entered an order appointing the Oklahoma Firefighters Pension and Retirement System as lead plaintiff, designated counsel for the lead plaintiff, and established certain deadlines for the case.  On June 4, 2018, Plaintiff filed a first amended complaint.  On August 3, 2018, the Company filed a motion to dismiss the first amended complaint and a memorandum in support of motion to dismiss seeking dismissal on grounds that the first amended complaint fails to plead any actionable statement or omission and fails to allege facts sufficient to give rise to a strong inference of scienter (the “Motion to Dismiss”).

On January 26, 2018, Charles Denham, claiming to be a stockholder of the Company, filed a purported shareholder derivative action, on behalf of the Company, in the U.S. District Court for the Middle District of Tennessee, naming the Company as a nominal defendant and the Company's chief executive officer, chief financial officer, a former executive who served as both chief accounting officer and interim chief financial officer, current directors and a former director of the Company, as defendants (“Denham Lawsuit”).  The complaint asserts claims for breach of fiduciary duty, waste, and unjust enrichment, largely tracking allegations in the Weiner Lawsuit.  The complaint further alleges that certain defendants engaged in insider trading.  The plaintiff seeks monetary damages on behalf of the Company, certain corporate governance and internal procedural reforms, and other equitable relief.

Allen, claiming to be a stockholder of the Company, filed a purported shareholder derivative action, on behalf of the Company, in the U.S. District Court for the Middle District of Tennessee, naming the Company as a nominal defendant and the Company’s chief executive officer, chief financial officer, a former executive who served as both chief accounting officer and interim chief financial officer, together with nine current or former directors, as defendants (the “Allen Lawsuit”).  The complaint asserts claims for breach of fiduciary duty and violations of the Securities and Exchange Act against all individual defendants, largely tracking allegations in the Weiner Lawsuit and Denham Lawsuit, and breach of fiduciary duty for insider trading against a former executive who served as both chief accounting officer and interim chief financial officer and one of the directors of the Company.  The plaintiff seeks to recover damages on behalf of the Company, certain corporate governance and internal procedural reforms, and other equitable relief, including restitution from the two defendants alleged to have engaged in insider trading from all unlawfully obtained profits.  On October 15, 2018, the Allen Lawsuit and the Denham Lawsuit were consolidated by stipulation, and the consolidated case was stayed pending entry of an order resolving the Motion to Dismiss filed in the Weiner Lawsuit.

Contractual Commitments

In October 2012, we entered into the Gallup Joint Venture that required us to make payments over a five-year period beginning January 2013. Pursuant to Sharecare's acquisition of the TPHS business, our ownership interest in the Gallup Joint Venture was transferred to Sharecare. We agreed with Sharecare to be responsible for two-thirds of the remaining payment obligations in respect of the purchase price to be paid in connection with Sharecare's acquisition of additional membership interest in the Gallup Joint Venture. As of September 30, 2017, the remaining obligation totaled $0.8 million and was included in accrued liabilities. The financial impact of the strategic relationship with Gallup and the Gallup Joint Venture are reflected in discontinued operations for all periods presentedexpense legal costs as each of these were a part of the TPHS business.

Fair Value Measurements

Fair Value Measurements


We account for certain assets and liabilities at fair value.value. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received upon sale of an asset or paid upon transfer of a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date, assuming the transaction occurs in the principal or most advantageous market for that asset or liability.


Fair Value Hierarchy


The hierarchy below lists three levels of fair value based on the extent to which inputs used in measuring fair value are observable in the market.market. We categorize each of our fair value measurements in one of these three levels based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety.entirety. These levels are:


17


Level 1:   Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

Level 1: 

Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

Level 2:

Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and model-basedmodel-based valuation techniques in which all significant assumptions are observable in the market or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities; and


Level 3: 

Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and typically reflect management's estimates of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.

Assets and typically reflect management's estimates of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.

Thethe fair values of the Cash Convertible Notes Hedges and the Cash Conversion Derivative arewere measured using Level 3 inputs because these instruments arewere not actively traded. They are valued using an option pricing model that uses observable and unobservable market data for inputs, such as expected time to maturity of the derivative instruments, the risk-free interest rate, the expected volatility of our common stock, and other factors. The Cash Convertible Notes Hedges and the Cash Conversion Derivative were designed such that changes in their fair values would offset one another,, with minimal impact to the consolidated statements of operations. Therefore

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities


We useused derivative instruments to manage risks related to interest (through December 30, 2016), the Cash Convertible Notes, which matured and prior to the sale of the TPHS business, foreign currencies.were repaid on July 2, 2018.  We account for derivatives in accordance with ASC Topic 815, which establishes accounting and reporting standards requiring that certain derivative instruments be recorded on the balance sheet as either an asset or liability measured at fair value. Additionally, changes in the derivative's fair value will be recognized currently in earnings unless specific hedge accounting criteria are met.  As permitted under our master netting arrangements,We do not execute transactions or hold derivative financial instruments for trading or other purposes.

DerivativeInstrumentsNotDesignatedas HedgingInstruments

The Cash Conversion Derivative and Cash Convertible Notes Hedges were settled on July 2, 2018 in conjunction with the fair value amountsmaturity of our prior interest rate swapsthe Cash Convertible Notes.  They did not qualify for hedge accounting treatment under U.S. GAAP and were measured at fair value, with gains and foreign currency options and/or forward contracts are presented on a net basis by counterpartylosses recognized immediately in the consolidated balance sheets.

Cash Flow Hedges

Derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges are recorded at estimated fair value in the consolidated balance sheetscon,s with the effective portionolidated statements of the gains and losses being reported in accumulated otheroperations. These derivative instruments did not have a material impact on our consolidated statements of comprehensive income or loss ("accumulated OCI"). We did not maintain any cash flow hedges during the three or nine months ended September 30, 2017.  Cash flow hedges for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 consisted solely of an interest rate swap agreement, which effectively modified our exposure to interest rate risk by converting2018 a portion of our floating rate debt to a fixed rate obligation,n thus reducing the impact of interest rate changes on future interest expense. Under this agreement, which terminated on December 30, 2016, we received a variable rate of interest based on LIBOR (as defined in Note 6), and we paid a fixed rate of interest with an interest rate of 1.480% plus a spread. Gains and losses on this interest rate swap agreement were reclassified to interest expense in the same period during which the hedged transaction affected earnings or the period in which all or a portion of the hedge became ineffective.

The following table shows the effect of our cash flow hedges on the consolidated balance sheets during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016:

In the third quarter of 2015, we began developing our reorganization and cost rationalization plan (the "2015 Restructuring Plan") that commenced in October 2015, which was intended to improve efficiency and deliver greater value to our customers and stakeholders. Completion of the 2015 Restructuring Plan occurred with the completion of the sale of the TPHS business in July 2016. We incurred a total of approximately $24 million in restructuring charges related to the 2015 Restructuring Plan, substantially all of which resulted in or will result in cash expenditures.

Revenue

Revenue Recognition


Beginning in 2018, we account for revenue from contracts with customers in accordance with ASC Topic 606.  The unit of account in ASC Topic 606 is a performance obligation, which is a promise in a contract to transfer to a customer either a distinct good or service (or bundle of goods or services) or a series of distinct goods or services provided over a period of time. ASC Topic 606 requires that a contract’s transaction price, which is the amount of consideration to which an entity expects to be entitled in exchange for transferring promised goods or services to a customer, is to be allocated to each performance obligation in the contract based on relative standalone selling prices and recognized as revenue when or as the performance obligation is satisfied.

We recognizeearn revenue from our three programs, SilverSneakers senior fitness, Prime Fitness and WholeHealth Living.  We provide the SilverSneakers senior fitness program to members of Medicare Advantage and Medicare Supplement plans through our contracts with such plans.  We offer Prime Fitness, a fitness facility access program, through contracts with employers, commercial health plans, and other sponsoring organizations that allow their members to individually purchase the program.  We sell our WholeHealth Living program primarily to health plans.

The significant majority of our customer contracts contain one performance obligation - to stand ready to provide access to our network of fitness locations and fitness programming - which is satisfied over time as services are performed when persuasive evidencerendered each month over the contract term.  There are generally no performance obligations that are unsatisfied at the end of an arrangement existsa particular month.  ,There was no material revenue recognized during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018 from performance obligations satisfied in a prior period.  collectability is reasonably assured

, and amounts are fixed or determinable.


Our fees are variable month to month and are generally billed per member per month ("PMPM"(“PMPM”), or billed based on a combination of PMPM and member participation. Forvisits to a network location.  We bill PMPM fees, we generally determine our contract fees by multiplying the contractually negotiated PMPM rate by the number of members eligible for or receiving our services during the month.month.  We generally bill for member visits approximately one month in arrears once actual member visits are known.  Payments from customers are typically due within 30 days of invoice date.  When material, we capitalize costs to obtain contracts with customers and amortize them over the expected recovery period.  

Our customer contracts include variable consideration, which is allocated to each distinct month over the contract term based on eligible members and/or member visits each month.  The allocated consideration corresponds directly with the value to our customers of our services completed for the month.  Under the majority of our contracts, we recognize revenue each month forusing the entire amount of the fees contractually due for the prior month's enrollment.  Fees for participation are typically billedpractical expedient available under ASC 606-10-55-18, which provides that revenue is recognized in the month afteramount for which we have the services are provided.


We recognize PMPM feesright to invoice.  

Although we evaluate our financial performance and fees for participation as revenue duringmake resource allocation decisions based upon the period we perform our services.


26


We are currently evaluating the impact that the adoption of ASU No. 2014-09 (as discussed in Note 2 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in this report) will have on our revenue recognition policies and procedures, financial position, results of operations,our single operating and reportable segment, we believe the following information depicts how our revenues and cash flows financial disclosuresare affected by economic factors.  For the three and control framework.

Impairmentnine months ended September 30, 2018, revenue from our SilverSneakers program, which is predominantly contracted with Medicare Advantage and Medicare Supplement plans, comprised approximately 81% of our consolidated revenues, while revenue from our Prime Fitness and WholeHealth Living programs comprised approximately 16% and 3%, respectively, of our consolidated revenues.

Sales and usage-based taxes are excluded from revenues.

Impairment of Intangible Assets and Goodwill


and Goodwill

We review goodwillgoodwill for impairmentimpairment at the reportingreporting unit level (operating segment orlevel (operating segment or one level belowbelow an operating segment)operating segment) on an annual basis (duringannual basis (during the fourth quarterquarter of ourour fiscal year) or more frequentlyfrequently whenever events or circumstances indicate circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverablethe carrying value may not be recoverable. Following the sale of the TPHS business,We have a single reporting unit remains.


Weunit.

As part of the impairment evaluation, we may elect to performperform a qualitative assessmentassessment to determine whether it is more likelylikely than not that the fair value of the reporting unit is less than its carrying value. If we elect not to perform a qualitative assessment or we determine that it is more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting unit is less than its carrying value, we perform a quantitative review as described below.

During a quantitative review of goodwill, we estimate the fair value of the reporting unit based on our market capitalization and compare such fair value to the carrying value of the reporting unit.  If the fair value of the reporting unit exceeds its carrying amount, no impairment is indicated. If the fair value of the reporting unit is less than its carrying value. If we conclude during the qualitative assessment that this is the case or if we elect not to perform a qualitative assessment, we perform a quantitative review as described below.


During a quantitative review of goodwill, we estimate the fair value of a reporting unit using a combination of a discounted cash flow model and a market-based approach, and in the event we have multiple reporting units, we reconcile the aggregate fair value of our reporting units to our consolidated market capitalization. Estimating fair value requires significant judgments, including management's estimate of future cash flows, which is dependent on internal forecasts, estimation of the long-term growth rate for our business, the useful life over which cash flows will occur, and determination of our weighted average cost of capital, as well as relevant comparable company earnings multiples for the market-based approach. Changes in these estimates and assumptions could materially affect the estimate of fair value and potential goodwillamount, impairment for each reporting unit.

If we determine that the carrying value of goodwill is impaired based upon an impairment review, we calculate any impairment using a fair-value-based goodwill impairment testmeasured as required by U.S. GAAP. The fair value of a reporting unit is the price that would be received upon a saleexcess of the unit as a whole in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.

Executive Overviewincludes a number of changes to existing U.S. tax laws that impact us, most notably, a reduction of the U.S. corporate income tax rate from 35% to 21% for tax years beginning after December 31, 2017.  The Tax Act also provided for a one-time transition tax on certain foreign earnings and the acceleration of depreciation for certain assets placed into service after September 27, 2017.  In addition, it provides for prospective changes beginning in 2018, including acceleration of tax revenue recognition and additional limitations on executive compensation and the deductibility of interest.  We are currently evaluating the Tax Act with our professional advisers; we cannot predict at this time the full impact of the Tax Act on the Company in future periods.

Depreciation and Amortization

Depreciation and amortization expense from continuing operations increased $0.3 million and $1.0 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, respectively, primarily attributabledue to cost savings fromincreased depreciation expense related to computer software and hardware.  

Restructuring and Related Charges

In the third quarter of 2016, we began implementing a reorganization of our corporate support infrastructure, that we began implementing in the third quarter of 2016 andwhich was largely completed induring the first quarter of 2017 (the "2016 Restructuring Plan") as well as decreased consulting costs related to the sale and separation of the TPHS business in 2016.


Depreciation and Amortization

Depreciation and amortization expense from continuing operations decreased $0.8 million from the three months ended September 30, 2016 compared to the same period in 2017, primarily due to an out-of-period adjustment recorded in the fourth quarter of 2016 to decrease full year depreciation expense included in continuing operations (with a corresponding increase to depreciation expense included in discontinued operations)This adjustment was recorded after having completed our asset separation analysis and related to the correction of our previous allocation of 2016 depreciation expense between continuing and discontinued operations.While interim periods in 2016 were not materially misstated, the majority of the decrease in depreciation expense from continuing operations for the three months ended September 30, 2017 is attributable to this adjustment.

Depreciation and amortization expense from continuing operations decreased $2.9 million from the nine months ended September 30, 2016 compared to the same period in 2017, primarily due to a decrease in the amount of depreciable assets as well as an out-of-period adjustment recorded in the fourth quarter of 2016, as described above.  While interim periods in 2016 were not materially misstated, a portion of the decrease in depreciation expense from continuing operations forDuring the nine months ended September 30, 2017, is attributablewe incurred approximately $0.7 million in restructuring charges from continuing operations, which consisted primarily of severance and other employee-related costs, related to this adjustment.

Interest Expense

Interest expense from continuing operations decreased $0.6 million and $0.9 million from the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2017,2018, primarily due to a lower average level of outstanding borrowings under our credit agreementindebtedness during 20172018 compared to 2016 and a decrease2017, including the repayment of the Cash Convertible Notes in the average interest rate paid on outstanding borrowings during 2017 compared to 2016.July 2018.  These decreases were partially offset by the acceleration during 2017 of a portion of deferred loan costs in conjunction with paydowns of our term loan A facility in 2017.

RAs of September 30, 2017, we had a working capital deficit of $152.7 million, including the classification of the Cash Convertible Notes, net of unamortized discount, of $143.8 million as a current liability at September 30, 2017 (as discussed in eNote 6 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in this report)sourceAs of November 1, 2017, the holders of the Cash Convertible Notes have not elected to convert their Cash Convertible Notes.

Credit Facility

On April 21, 2017, we entered into the Credit Agreement, which replaced the Prior Credit Agreement.  The Credit Agreement provides us with (1) a $100 million revolving credit facility that includes a $25 million sublimit for swingline loans and a $75 million sublimit for letters of credit, (2) a $70 million term loan A facility, (3) a $150 million delayed draw term loan facility, and (4) an uncommitted incremental accordion facility of $100 million.


We used the proceeds of the term loan A and cash on hand to repay all of the outstanding indebtedness under the Prior Credit Agreement and to pay transaction costs and expenses.

As of September 30, 2017,2018, our availability under the Credit Agreement included $92.8$86.9 million under the revolving credit facility and $150 million under the delayed draw term facility (which can be borrowed at our option until July 2, 2018).facility.  Proceeds of revolving loans and delayed draw term loans may be used to repay outstanding indebtedness, (including amounts payable upon or in respect of any conversion of the Cash Convertible Notes discussed below and the repayment of any revolving loans borrowed for such purposes), to finance working capital needs, to finance acquisitions, to finance the repurchase of our common stock, to finance capital expenditures and for other general corporate purposes of the Company and its subsidiaries. Delayed draw

Cash Flows Provided by Operating Activities

Operating activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2017 provided cash of $73.6 million compared to $18.1 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2016. The increase in operating cash flow resulted primarily from the following:

·an increase in net income, coupled with the use of tax loss carryforwards to offset taxable income and thus reduce cash taxes; and
·an improvement in days' sales outstanding, in part related to the composition of our customer base following the sale of the TPHS business.

Cash Flows Used in Investing Activities

Investing activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2017 used $4.0 million in cash, compared to $37.3 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2016, which was primarily due to decreased capital expenditures in 2017 compared to 2016 and payments related to the sale of the TPHS business in 2016 that did not recur in 2017.  These increases in cash were slightly offset by proceeds from the sale of the MeYou Health business in 2016 that did not recur in 2017.  Capital expenditures in 2016 were primarily associated with our technology platform, while capital expenditures in 2017 were primarily related to computer hardware and the development of a digital platform related to member awareness and engagement.  We expect capital expenditures to remain at lower levels when compared to the period prior to the sale of the TPHS business due to the profile of the remaining business.

Cash Flows Provided By/Used in Financing Activities

Financing activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2017 used $68.1 million in cash, while financing activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2016 provided $17.2 million in cash.  This decrease is primarily due to higher net payments on long-term debt related to accelerated paydowns of our term loan A facility during the second and third quarters of 2017 totaling $65 million.

Operating activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2018 provided cash of $74.5 million compared to $73.6 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2017.


The slight increase in operating cash flow is primarily due to an increase in net income, mostly offset by a decrease in cash collections on accounts receivable due to timing.

ForFlows Used in Investing Activities

Investing activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2018 used $5.0 million in cash, compared to $4.0 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2017, which was primarily due to increased capital expenditures primarily related to digital applications and platforms, somewhat offset by proceeds received during the nine months ended September 30, 2018 from a detailed descriptionrelease of escrow funds related to the sale of MeYou Health, LLC in June 2016.      

Cash Flows Provided By/Used in Financing Activities

Financing activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2018 used $96.2 million in cash, compared to $68.1 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2017.  This change is primarily due to higher net repayments of debt during the nine months ended September 30, 2018.

Cash Convertible Senior Notes

We repaid the Cash Convertible Notes Cash Convertible Notes Hedges, Cash Conversion Derivative, and Warrants (as such terms are defined in Note 6upon their maturity on July 2, 2018 through a combination of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements) entered into in July 2013, refer to Note 6 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in this report.  Aside from the initial premium paid, we will not be required to make anyavailable cash, payments made by the counterparties under the Cash Convertible Notes Hedges, and could be entitled to receive an amount of cash fromavailable credit under the option counterparties generally equal to the amount by which the market price per share of common stock exceeds the strike priceCredit Agreement, as further described in Note 7 of the Cash Convertible Note Hedges during the relevant valuation period.

For a detailed description of the Cash Convertible Notes.


The Cash Convertible Notes become convertible into cash during any calendar quarter (and only during such calendar quarter) if the last reported sale price of our common stock for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) during a period of 30 consecutive trading days ending on the last trading dayrelated warrants, refer to Note 7 of the immediately preceding calendar quarter is greater than or equalnotes to approximately $25.30 per share. This condition was satisfied on September 15, 2017 for the calendar quarter ended September 30, 2017, and accordingly, the Cash Convertible Notes are convertible at any time at the option of the holders during the period from October 1, 2017 through December 31, 2017.  We will continue to evaluate whether the Trading Price Condition has been satisfied in each future calendar quarter prior to the maturity date of July 1, 2018. The initial cash conversion rate is 51.3769 shares of our common stock per $1,000 principal amount of the Cash Convertible Notes (equivalent to an initial conversion price of $19.4640 per share of common stock). The settlement on any Cash Convertible Notes surrendered for conversion during this period will occur on the third business day following the end of the

applicable "Observation Period" with respect to such conversion (i.e., the period that begins on the date that a holder surrendered the Cash Convertible Notes for conversion in accordance with the requirements of the indenture and ends on the 80th consecutive trading day following such date). The indenture requires the Company to satisfy the entire settlement amount for any conversions (determined in accordance with the provisions of the indenture) in cash, and the notes are not convertible into the Company's common stock or any other securities under any circumstances.

The estimated fair value based on the last traded price of the Cash Convertible Note at September 30, 2017 was $309.5 million (as discussed in Note 8 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statementsconsolidated financial statements included in this report). Additionally, if the market price per share of our common stock exceeds the strike price of the Warrants on any warrant exercise date, we will be obligated to issue to the option counterparties a number of shares based on the amount by which the then-current market price per share of our common stock exceeds the then-effective strike price of each Warrant. We will not receive any additional proceeds if the Warrants are exercised.

Item 33. Qua.n Quantitativetitative and Qualitative Disclosures About MarketQualitative Disclosures About Market Risk


We are subject to market risk related to interest rate changes, primarily as a result of the Credit Agreement.  Borrowings under the Credit Agreement generally bear interest at variable rates based on a margin or spread in excess of either (1) the one-month, two-month, three-month or six-month LIBOR rate (or with the approval of affected lenders, the twelve-month LIBOR rate)LIBOR), which may not be less than zero, or (2) the greatest of (a) the SunTrust Bank prime lending rate, (b) the federal funds rate plus 0.50%, and (c) one-month LIBOR plus 1.00% (the "Base Rate"“Base Rate”), as selected by the Company.  The LIBOR margin varies between 1.50% and 2.75%, and the Base Rate margin varies between 0.50% and 1.75%, depending on our net leverage ratio. 


We estimate that a one-point interest rate change in our floating rate debt would have resulted in one-point interest rate change in our floating rate debt would have resulted in a change in interest expense of approximately $0.6$0.2 million for the nine months ended September 30,, 2017.
