NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(in thousands, except per share amounts)
 
1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The condensed consolidated balance sheets and related condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income and cash flows contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (this “Quarterly Report”), which are unaudited, include the accounts of AMN Healthcare Services, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”). All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. In the opinion of management, all entries necessary for a fair presentation of such unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been included. These entries consisted of all normal recurring items. The results of operations for the interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for any other interim period or for the entire fiscal year or for any future period.
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all information and notes necessary for a complete presentation of financial position, results of operations and cash flows in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”). Please refer to the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and the related notes for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020,2021, contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020,2021, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 26, 2021 (“202024, 2022 (the “2021 Annual Report”).
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make a number of estimates and assumptions relating to the reporting of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. On an ongoing basis, the Company evaluates its estimates, including those related to intangible assets purchased in a business combination, asset impairments, accruals for self-insurance, compensation and related benefits, accounts receivable, contingencies and litigation, contingent consideration liabilities associated with acquisitions, and income taxes. Actual results could differ from those estimates under different assumptions or conditions. The impact of the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic did not have a material effect on the Company’s estimates as of September 30, 2021.
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
In December 2019, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standard Update (“ASU”) 2019-12, “Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes.” The standard is expected to reduce cost and complexity related to accounting for income taxes. The new guidance eliminates certain exceptions and clarifies and amends existing guidance to promote consistent application among reporting entities. Depending on the amended guidance within this standard, adoption is to be applied on a retrospective, modified retrospective or prospective basis. The Company adopted this standard effective January 1, 2021, and the adoption did not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
In January 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-01, “Clarifying the Interactions between Topic 321, Topic 323, and Topic 815.” The new guidance clarifies the interactions between accounting standards that apply to equity investments without readily determinable fair values. Specifically, it addresses the accounting for the transition into and out of the equity method. The Company adopted this standard effective January 1, 2021 on a prospective basis, and the adoption did not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
Cash, Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash
The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents include currency on hand, deposits with financial institutions, money market funds, commercial paper and other highly liquid investments. Restricted cash and cash equivalents primarily includes cash, corporate bonds and commercial paper that serve as collateral for the Company’s captive insurance subsidiary claim payments. See Note (7)(6), “Fair Value Measurement” for additional information.

3. REVENUE RECOGNITION
8


Revenue primarily consists of fees earned from the temporary staffing and permanent placement of healthcare professionals, executives, and leaders (clinical and operational). The Company also generates revenue from its software as a service (“SaaS”)-based technologies,technology-enabled services, including language interpretation and vendor management systems, and scheduling software,talent planning and outsourced workforceacquisition services, including language interpretation and recruitment process outsourcing. The Company recognizes revenue when control of its services is transferred to its customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to receive in exchange for those services. Revenue from temporary staffing services is recognized as the services are rendered by clinical and non-clinical healthcare professionals. Under the Company’s managed services program (“MSP”) arrangements, the Company manages all or a part of a customer’s supplemental workforce needs utilizing its own network of healthcare professionals along with those of third-party subcontractors. Revenue and the related direct costs under MSP arrangements are recorded in accordance with the accounting guidance on reporting revenue gross as a principal versus net as an agent. When the Company uses subcontractors and acts as an agent, revenue is recorded net of the related subcontractor’s expense. Revenue from permanent placement and outsourced workforcerecruitment process outsourcing services is recognized as the services are rendered. Depending on the arrangement, the Company’s SaaS-basedtechnology-enabled service revenue is recognized either as the services are rendered or ratably over the applicable arrangement’s service period.
The Company’s customers are primarily billed as services are rendered. Any fees billed in advance of being earned are recorded as deferred revenue. While payment terms vary by the type of customer and the services rendered, the term between invoicing and when payment is due is not significant. During the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, previously deferred revenue recognized as revenue was $10,515 and $11,408, respectively.
The Company has elected to apply the following practical expedients and optional exemptions related to contract costs and revenue recognition:
7


Recognize incremental costs of obtaining a contract with amortization periods of one year or less as expense when incurred. These costs are recorded within selling, general and administrative expenses.
Recognize revenue in the amount of consideration that the Company has a right to invoice the customer if that amount corresponds directly with the value to the customer of the Company’s services completed to date.
Exemptions from disclosing the value of unsatisfied performance obligations for (i) contracts with an original expected length of one year or less, (ii) contracts for which revenue is recognized in the amount of consideration that the Company has a right to invoice for services performed and (iii) contracts for which variable consideration is allocated entirely to a wholly unsatisfied performance obligation or to a wholly unsatisfied promise to transfer a distinct service that forms part of a single performance obligation.
See Note (5), “Segment Information,” for additional information regarding the Company’s revenue disaggregated by service type.

5. SEGMENT INFORMATION
The Company’s operating segments are identified in the same manner as they are reported internally and used by the Company’s chief operating decision maker for the purpose of evaluating performance and allocating resources. The Company has 3 reportable segments: (1) nurse and allied solutions, (2) physician and leadership solutions, and (3) technology and workforce solutions. The nurse and allied solutions segment includes the Company’s travel nurse staffing, rapid response nurse staffing and labor disruption, allied staffing, local staffing, and revenue cycle solutions businesses. The physician and leadership solutions segment includes the Company’s locum tenens staffing, healthcare interim leadership staffing, executive search, and physician permanent placement businesses. The technology and workforce solutions segment includes the Company’s language services, vendor management systems, workforce optimization, recruitment process outsourcing, telehealth, credentialing, and flex pool management and other outsourced solutions businesses.
The Company’s chief operating decision maker relies on internal management reporting processes that provide revenue and operating income by reportable segment for making financial decisions and allocating resources. Segment operating income represents income before income taxes plus depreciation, amortization of intangible assets, share-based compensation, interest expense, net, and other, and unallocated corporate overhead. The Company’s management does not evaluate, manage or measure performance of segments using asset information; accordingly, asset information by segment is not prepared or disclosed.

6. NOTES PAYABLE AND CREDIT AGREEMENT
On February 9, 2018, the Company entered into the New Credit Agreement with several lenders to provide for the $400,000 Senior Credit Facility to replace its then-existing credit facilities. On June 14, 2019, the Company entered into the first amendment to the New Credit Agreement (the “First Amendment”) to provide for, among other things, a $150,000 secured term loan credit facility (the “Term Loan”). The Company fully repaid all amounts under the Term Loan in 2019. On February 14, 2020, the Company entered into the second amendment to the New Credit Agreement (the “Second Amendment”) to provide for, among other things, a $250,000 secured term loan credit facility (the “Additional Term Loan”). The Second Amendment (together with the New Credit Agreement and the First Amendment, collectively, the “Amended Credit Agreement”) extended the maturity date of the Senior Credit Facility to be coterminous with the Additional Term Loan. The Company used the proceeds from the Additional Term Loan, together with a drawdown of a portion of the Senior Credit Facility, to complete its acquisition of Stratus Video as more fully described in Note (2), “Acquisitions.” The Company repaidFAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT

7. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT
 
The Company’s valuation techniques and inputs used to measure fair value and the definition of the three levels (Level 1, Level 2, and Level 3) of the fair value hierarchy are disclosed in Part II, Item 8, “Financial Statements and Supplementary Data—Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—Note 3—(3), Fair Value Measurement” of the 20202021 Annual Report. The Company has not changed the valuation techniques or inputs it uses for its fair value measurement during the ninethree months ended September 30, 2021.March 31, 2022.
Assets and Liabilities Measured on a Recurring Basis
Beginning in the third quarter of 2021, theThe Company invests a portion of its cash and cash equivalents in non-federally insured money market funds that are measured at fair value based on quoted prices, which are Level 1 inputs.

The Company has a deferred compensation plan for certain executives and employees, which is composed of deferred compensation and all related income and losses attributable thereto. The Company’s obligation under its deferred compensation plan is measured at fair value based on quoted market prices of the participants’ elected investments, which are Level 1 inputs.
The Company’s restricted cash equivalents and investments that serve as collateral for the Company’s captive insurance company primarily consist ofinclude commercial paper that is measured at observable market prices for identical securities that are traded in less active markets, which are Level 2 inputs. The Company’s cash equivalents also include commercial paper classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy. Of the $126,584$41,685 commercial paper issued and outstanding as of September 30, 2021, $17,658March 31, 2022, none had original maturities greater than three months whichand were considered available-for-sale securities. As of December 31, 2020,2021, the Company had $58,345$80,596 commercial paper issued and outstanding, of which $25,196none had original maturities greater than three months and were considered available-for-sale securities.
The Company’s restricted cash equivalents and investments that serve as collateral for the Company’s captive insurance company also include corporate bonds that are measured using readily available pricing sources that utilize observable market data, including the current interest rate for comparable instruments, which are Level 2 inputs. Of the $25,474 corporate bonds issued and outstanding as of March 31, 2022, $24,194 had original maturities greater than three months and were considered available-for-sale securities. As of December 31, 2021, the Company had $29,159 corporate bonds issued and outstanding, of which $27,958 had original maturities greater than three months and were considered available-for-sale securities.
The Company’s contingent consideration liabilities associated with acquisitions are measured at fair value using a probability-weighted discounted cash flow analysis or a simulation-based methodology for the acquired companies, which are Level 3 inputs. The Company recognizes changes to the fair value of its contingent consideration liabilities in selling, general and administrative expenses in the condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income. There were no contingent consideration liabilities outstanding as of both March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021.
The following tables present information about the above-referenced assets and liabilities and indicate the fair value hierarchy of the valuation techniques utilized to determine such fair value:

Assets Measured on a Non-Recurring Basis
The Company applies fair value techniques on a non-recurring basis associated with valuing potential impairment losses related to its goodwill, indefinite-lived intangible assets, long-lived assets, and equity investments.
The Company evaluates goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets annually for impairment and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that it is more likely than not that an impairment exists. The Company determines the fair value of its reporting units based on a combination of inputs, including the market capitalization of the Company, as well as Level 3 inputs such as discounted cash flows, which are not observable from the market, directly or indirectly. The Company determines the fair value of its indefinite-lived intangible assets using the income approach (relief-from-royalty method) based on Level 3 inputs.
The Company’s equity investment represents an investment in a non-controlled corporation without a readily determinable market value. The Company has elected to measure the investment at cost minus impairment, if any, plus or minus changes resulting from observable price changes. The fair value is determined by using quoted prices for identical or similar investments of the same issuer, which are Level 2 inputs, and other information available to the Company such as the rights and obligations of the securities. The Company recognizes changes to the fair value of its equity investment in interest expense, net, and other in the condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income. The balance of the equity investment was $22,633 and $15,449 as of September 30, 2021both March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2020, respectively.2021.
There were no triggering events identified, no indication of impairment of the Company’s goodwill, indefinite-lived intangible assets, long-lived assets, or equity investments, and no impairment charges recorded during the ninethree months ended September 30, 2021March 31, 2022 and 2020.2021.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Company is required to disclose the fair value of financial instruments for which it is practicable to estimate the value, even though these instruments are not recognized at fair value in the consolidated balance sheets. The fair value of the Company’s 4.625% senior notes due 2027 (the “2027 Notes”) and 4.000% senior notes due 2029 (the “2029 Notes”) was estimated using quoted market prices in active markets for identical liabilities, which are Level 1 inputs. The carrying amounts and estimated fair value of the 2027 Notes and the 2029 Notes are presented in the following table. See additional information regarding the 2027 Notes and the 2029 Notes in Part II, Item 8, “Financial Statements and Supplementary Data—Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—Note (8), Notes Payable and Credit Agreement” of the 20202021 Annual Report.

8. LEASES

During the three months ended September 30, 2021, the Company entered into an arrangement to terminate the lease agreement (as amended to date) for its office space in San Diego. The termination will occur in 2 phases: the first phase terminates the Company’s right to use certain floors effective February 28, 2022 and the second phase reduces the remaining lease term to December 31, 2024 from its original termination date of July 31, 2027. As a result of the arrangement, which was accounted for as a modification, the Company paid a termination fee of $17,000, remeasured the lease liability using its incremental borrowing rate as the discount rate, and recorded decreases to its operating lease liabilities and right-of-use assets of $27,340 during the three months ended September 30, 2021. Prior to the modification, the total remaining lease payments for this office lease were $62,487. Under the modified lease terms, the total remaining lease payments (excluding the termination fee paid during the three months ended September 30, 2021) are $9,564.
9.7. INCOME TAXES

The Company is subject to taxation in the U.S. and various states and foreign jurisdictions. With few exceptions, as of September 30, 2021,March 31, 2022, the Company is no longer subject to state, local or foreign examinations by tax authorities for tax years before 2011, and the Company is no longer subject to U.S. federal income or payroll tax examinations for tax years before 2017.2018.

The Company believes its liability for unrecognized tax benefits and contingent tax issues is adequate with respect to all open years. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company could adjust its provision for income taxes and contingent tax liability based on future developments.
CARES Act
On March 27, 2020, the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”) was enacted and signed into law in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. Among other things, the CARES Act contains significant business tax provisions, including a deferral of payment of employer payroll taxes and an employer retention credit for employer payroll taxes.
The Company has deferred payment of the employer’s share of payroll taxes of $48,452,$48,452. Approximately half of such taxes was paid during 2021 and the other half is to be paid by the end of 2022, which is included in accrued compensation and benefits and other long-term liabilities in the consolidated balance sheetsheets as of September 30, 2021, with half of such taxes to be paid by the end of 2021both March 31, 2022 and the other half to be paid by the end of 2022.December 31, 2021. The Company has claimed an employee retention employment tax credit of $1,756.

10.8. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES: LEGAL PROCEEDINGSCONTINGENCIES

Legal Proceedings
From time to time, the Company is involved in various lawsuits, claims, investigations, and proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of business. These matters typically relate to professional liability, tax, compensation, contract, competitor disputes and employee-related matters and include individual and class action lawsuits, as well as inquiries and investigations by governmental agencies regarding the Company’s employment and compensation practices. Additionally, some of the Company’s clients may also become subject to claims, governmental inquiries and investigations, and legal actions relating to services provided by the Company’s healthcare professionals. Depending upon the particular facts and circumstances, the
14


Company may also be subject to indemnification obligations under its contracts with such clients relating to these matters. The Company accrues for contingencies and records a liability when management believes an adverse outcome from a loss contingency is both probable and the amount, or a range, can be reasonably estimated. Significant judgment is required to determine both probability of loss and the estimated amount. The Company reviews its loss contingencies at least quarterly and adjusts its accruals and/or disclosures to reflect the impact of negotiations, settlements, rulings, advice of legal counsel, or other new information, as deemed necessary. The most significant matters for which the Company has established loss contingencies are class actions related to wage and hour claims under California and Federal law. Specifically, among other claims in these lawsuits, it is alleged that certain expense reimbursements should be considered wages and included in the regular rate of pay for purposes of calculating overtime rates.

On May 26, 2016, former travel nurse Verna Maxwell Clarke filed a complaint against AMN Services, LLC, in California Superior Court in Los Angeles County. The Company removed the case to the United States District Court for the Central District of California (Case No. 2:16-cv-04132-DSF-KS) (the “Clarke Matter”). The complaint asserts that, due to the Company’s per diem adjustment practices, traveling nurses’ per diem benefits should be included in their regular rate of pay for the purposes of calculating their overtime compensation. On June 26, 2018, the district court denied the plaintiffs’ Motion for Summary Judgment in its entirety, and granted the Company’s Motion for Summary Judgment with respect to the Plaintiffs’plaintiffs’ per diem and overtime claims. The plaintiffs filed an appeal of the judgment relating to the per diem claims with the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals (the “Ninth Circuit”). On February 8, 2021, a three-judge panel of the Ninth Circuit issued an opinion that reversed the district court’s granting of the Company’s Motion for Summary Judgment and remanded the matter to the district court instructing the district to enter partial summary judgment in favor of the Plaintiffs. On May 7, 2021, the Ninth Circuit issued an order denying the Company’s petition for rehearing.plaintiffs. On August 26, 2021, the Company filed a Petition for Writ of Certiorari in the United States Supreme Court seeking review of the Ninth Circuit’s decision. At this time, itdecision, which was denied on December 13, 2021. This case is unknown whetherproceeding in the Supreme Court will consider the appeal.United States District Court.

On May 2, 2019, former travel nurse Sara Woehrle filed a complaint against AMN Services, LLC, and Providence Health System – Southern California in California Superior Court in Los Angeles County. The Company removed the case to the United States District Court for the Central District of California (Case No. 2:19-cv-05282 DSF-KS). The complaint asserts that, due to the Company’s per diem adjustment practices, traveling nurses’ per diem benefits should be included in their regular rate of pay for the purposes of calculating their overtime compensation. The Complaintcomplaint also alleges that the putative class members were denied required meal periods, denied proper overtime compensation, were not compensated for all time worked, including reporting time and training time, and received non-compliant wage statements. The Company has reached a preliminaryan agreement to settle this matter in its entirety.entirety and is awaiting court approval. Final settlement is not expected until the fourth quarter of 2022.

The Company believes that its current wage and hour practices including those associated with the cases described above, conform with the applicable law in all material respects. However, becauseBecause of the February 2021 ruling by the Ninth Circuit in the Clarke Matter and the inherent uncertainty of litigation, the Company is not able to reasonably predict if any matter will be resolved in a manner that is materially adverse to the Company. Accordingly, theThe Company has recorded an increase to its accruals established in connection with the matters described above amounting to $20,000 during the fourth quarter of 2020, and the ultimate resolution could result in a loss of up to $15,000, excluding penalties, in excess of the amounts currently accrued. For all other matters, the$37,225. The Company is currently unable to currently estimate the possible loss or range of loss beyond the amounts already accrued. Loss contingencies accrued as of September 30,both March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021 are included in accounts payable and accrued expenses and other long-term liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets.
Operating Leases
In the first quarter of 2022, the Company entered into a lease agreement for an office building located in Dallas, Texas, with future undiscounted lease payments of approximately $29,514, excluding lease incentives. Because the Company does not control the underlying asset during the construction period, the Company is not considered the owner of the asset under construction for accounting purposes. The lease will commence upon completion of the construction of the office building which is expected be in the first quarter of 2023. The initial term of the lease is approximately eleven years with options to renew the lease during the lease term. A right-of-use asset and lease liability will be recognized in the consolidated balance sheet in the period the lease commences.

Recent Trends

Demand for our temporary and permanent placement staffing services is driven in part by U.S. economic and labor trends, and since early 2020 through present, the COVID-19 pandemic has“Great Resignation” have impacted demand. When the imposition of “shelter-in-place” orders and the suspension of elective and “non-essential” healthcare services occurred in March 2020 in response to the COVID-19 health crisis, demand for many of our businesses declined significantly. With these orders and suspensions lifted, general utilization of healthcare has continued to improve and has generally returned to pre-COVID-19 levels. Since late 2020, we have been experiencing historically high demand for nurses and certain allied healthcare professionals. Recently,professionals and demand across all segments and business lines has beenis above pre-COVID-19 levels.

InWith high demand levels across many specialties in our nurse and allied solutions segment, priorour clients continue to the COVID-19 pandemic, our ability to recruit enough nurses to meet the then-current demand levels was impacted by the tight labor market and modest bill rate increases. At the peak of the pandemic, demand for nurses was most concentrated in specialties including ICU and telemetry nurses. Now, the current historic demand levels are dispersed across many specialties. Our clients are faced withface increased labor shortages resulting from nurse burnout, attrition, retirements and retirements. We have recently seen travel nurse demand begin to a lesser extent, the impact of mandatory vaccination requirements. Bill rates and wages for these nurses have continued to remain wellmoderate, though still above prior yearpre-pandemic levels, due to reductions in COVID-19 hospitalizations and crisis needs. The wages for nurses and the corresponding bill rates we charge our clients peaked in the first quarter of 2022 due to the shortage of clinicians, significantly higher demand and our clients’ need to frequently fill positions quickly. Although the number of nurses on travel assignments has increased since July 2020, ourOur ability to adequately meet the high client demand iscontinues to be constrained by the tight labor market along with nurse burnout andmarket. We anticipate bill rates to decline from first quarter levels, but remain well above pre-pandemic levels throughout the other aforementioned issues related to the pandemic.remainder of 2022.

The overall demand in our allied staffing division reached all-time highs in the third quarter.first quarter, which resulted in record levels of travelers on assignment. We saw record quarterlycontinue to see strong overall demand in our respiratory, laboratory, and radiology specialties, while our rehab therapy specialty saw its largest new demand quarter since 2019. The increasedallied staffing division with COVID-19-driven demand in some of theserespiratory and laboratory specialties was driven by COVID-19 hospitalizations, testing, and vaccination support. Demand in other modalities were driven by the continued surge in elective procedures as more of the population has become comfortable re-entering physician offices and outpatient centers. The return to in-person schools and additional federal funding has driven our school modality to strong year-over-year increases in all healthcare specialties.leveling off.

In our physician and leadership solutions segment, demand has recovered and now exceeds pre-pandemic levels. We are seeing strong demand for locum tenens and interim leadership as well as for permanent physicians and leaders. In our locum tenens division, we have seen particularly higherhigh demand for certain specialties, such as anesthesiologists, certified registered nurse anesthetists (CRNAs) and advanced practice clinicians, in our locum tenens division.clinicians. Longer term, we expect continued strong core demand resulting from an increased level of burnout and turnover of healthcare leadership roles.

In our technology and workforce solutions segment, our VMS technologies experienced increased utilization and revenue growth this year due to increasedcontinued high demand levels and elevated bill rates. We anticipate utilization and bill rates to subside as COVID-19 hospitalizations decline while remaining well above pre-pandemic levels.

The utilization of our language services business continued to grow as healthcare utilization returned to a more normal activities and with the need and importance of these services having been demonstrated during the pandemic.level.

The demand for our recruitment process outsourcing increased in the third quarterservices remained strong as clients look for solutions to help address the increased labor shortages and the need to address vacancies in their permanent roles.roles and challenges with staffing their internal recruiting teams. We expect this increased demand to continue in the current constrained labor market.

As our businesses have continued to grow, we have increased our sales and operations workforce to support our clients and healthcare professionals. We have also increased spending to support our current team members and retain talent.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The preparation of our consolidated financial statements in conformity with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect our reported amounts of assets and liabilities, revenue and expenses, and related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our
18


estimates, including those related to intangible assets purchased in a business combination, asset impairments, accruals for self-insurance, compensation and related benefits, accounts receivable, contingencies and litigation, contingent consideration (“earn-out”) liabilities associated with acquisitions, and income taxes. We base these estimates on the information that is currently
18


available to us and on various other assumptions that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could vary from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. If these estimates differ significantly from actual results, our consolidated financial statements and future results of operations may be materially impacted. There have been no material changes in our critical accounting policies and estimates other than the adoption of the Accounting Standards Updates (“ASUs”) described in the accompanying Note 1, “Basis of Presentation,” as compared to the critical accounting policies and estimates described in our 20202021 Annual Report.

The overall decrease was partially offset by a higher weighted average interest rate during the nine months ended September 30, 2021, which was primarily due to the issuances of higher interest bearing senior notes during the third and fourth quarters of 2020.
Income Tax Expense. Income tax expense was $74.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 as compared to $24.2 million for the same period in 2020, reflecting effective income tax rates of 26% and 28% for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The decrease in the effective income tax rate was primarily attributable to nondeductible meals per diem and officers compensation expenses of $5.0 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2021 compared to $4.2 million during the same period in 2020,March 31, 2022, in relation to income before income taxes of $285.1 million and $85.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively.taxes.

Historically, our primary liquidity requirements have been for acquisitions, working capital requirements, and debt service under our credit facilities and senior notes. We have funded these requirements through internally generated cash flow and funds borrowed under our credit facilities. During the first quarter of 2021, we paid off the remaining balance of our $250.0 million secured term loan credit facility (the “Additional Term Loan”). As of September 30, 2021,March 31, 2022, (1) no amount was drawn with $379.2$378.6 million of available credit under our $400.0 million secured revolving credit facility (the “Senior Credit Facility” and, together with the Additional Term Loan, the “Credit Facilities”), (2) the aggregate principal amount of our 4.625% senior notes due 2027 (the “2027 Notes”) outstanding equaledwas $500.0 million, and (3) the aggregate principal amount of our 4.000% senior notes due 2029 (the “2029 Notes”) outstanding equaledwas $350.0 million.

As of March 31, 2022, the total of our contractual obligations under operating leases with initial terms in excess of one year was $21.8 million. We describe in further detail our operating lease arrangements in Part II, Item 8, “Financial Statements and Supplementary Data—Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—Note (5), Leases” of our 2021 Annual Report. We also have various obligations and working capital requirements, such as certain tax and legal matters, contingent consideration and other liabilities, that are recorded on our consolidated balance sheets. See additional information in the accompanying Note (6), “Fair Value Measurement,” Note (7), “Income Taxes,” Note (8), “Commitments and Contingencies,” and Note (9), “Balance Sheet Details.”

In addition to our cash requirements, we have a share repurchase program authorized by our board of directors, which does not require the purchase of any minimum number of shares and may be suspended or discontinued at any time. See additional information in the accompanying Part II, Item 2, “Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds.”
We believe that cash generated from operations and available borrowings under the Senior Credit Facility will be sufficient to fund our operations and liquidity requirements, including expected capital expenditures, for at least the next 12 months.months and beyond. We intend to finance potential future acquisitions with cash provided from operations, borrowings under the Senior Credit Facility or other borrowings under our amended credit agreement, bank loans, debt or equity offerings, or some combination of the foregoing. The following discussion provides further details of our liquidity and capital resources.

Contractual Obligations
There have been no material changes during the nine months ended September 30, 2021 to the table entitled “Contractual Obligations” in Part II, Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” set forth in our 2020 Annual Report other than the following: (i) the borrowings and repayments under our amended credit agreement, which are described in the accompanying Note (2), “Acquisitions,” and Note (6), “Notes Payable and Credit Agreement,” and (ii) the modification to the operating lease of our office space in San Diego as described in the accompanying Note (8), “Leases.”

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In October 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-08, “Business Combinations (Topic 805): Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers.” The new guidance will require companies to apply the definition of a performance obligation under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, to recognize and measure contract assets and contract liabilities, such as deferred revenue, relating to contracts with customers that are acquired in a business combination. Under existing guidance, an acquirer generally recognizes assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination, including contract assets and contract liabilities arising from revenue contracts with customers, at their acquisition-date fair values in accordance with ASC Subtopic 820-10, Fair Value Measurements—Overall. Generally, this new guidance will result in the acquirer recognizing acquired contract assets and liabilities on the same basis that would have been recorded by the acquiree prior to the acquisition under ASC Topic 606. This standard is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2022, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of adopting this standard on our consolidated financial statements.
There have been no other new accounting pronouncements issued but not yet adopted that are expected to materially affect our consolidated financial condition or results of operations.

any failure to further develop and evolve our current workforce solutions technology offerings and capabilities, which may harm our business;
disruption to or failures of our SaaS-based technologies, or our inability to adequately protect our intellectual property rights with respect to such technologies or sufficiently protect the privacy of personal information, could reduce client satisfaction, harm our reputation and negatively affect our business;

the expansion of social media platforms presents new risks and challenges, which could cause damage to our brand reputation;
any recognition of an impairment to the substantial amount of goodwill or indefinite-lived intangibles on our balance sheet;
our indebtedness, which could adversely affect our ability to raise additional capital to fund operations, limit our ability to react to changes in the economy or our industry, and expose us to interest rate risk to the extent of any variable rate debt;
the terms of our debt instruments that impose restrictions on us that may affect our ability to successfully operate our business; and
the effect of significant adverse adjustments to our insurance-related accruals on our balance sheet, which could decrease our earnings or increase our losses and negatively impact our cash flows.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
Market risk is the risk of loss arising from adverse changes in market rates and prices, such as interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates, and commodity prices. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021,March 31, 2022, our primary exposure to market risk was interest rate risk associated with our variable interest debt instruments. A 100 basis point increase in interest rates on our variable rate debt would not have resulted in a material effect on our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021.March 31, 2022. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021,March 31, 2022, we generated substantially all of our revenue in the United States. Accordingly, we believe that our foreign currency risk is immaterial.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
We carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Interim PrincipalChief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Interim PrincipalChief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures as of September 30, 2021March 31, 2022 were effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Interim PrincipalChief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
 
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended September 30, 2021March 31, 2022 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
