(In thousands, except share and per share amounts)
1. Organization
ExlService Holdings, Inc. (“ExlService Holdings”) is organized as a corporation under the laws of the state of Delaware. ExlService Holdings, together with its subsidiaries and affiliates (collectively, the “Company”), operates in the Business Process Management (“BPM”) industry providing operations management services and analytics services that help businesses enhance revenue growth and improve profitability. Using its proprietary platforms, methodologies and tools, the Company looks deeper to help its clientscompanies improve global operations, enhance data-driven insights, increase customer satisfaction, and manage risk and compliance. The Company’s clients are located principally in the United States of America (“U.S.”) and the U.K.United Kingdom (“U.K”).
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
(a) Basis of Preparation and Principles of Consolidation
The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordanceconformity with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“US GAAP”) for interim financial information, the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by US GAAP for annual financial statements and therefore should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2016.2018.
The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments (of a normal and recurring nature) that management considers necessary for a fair presentation of such statements for the interim periods presented. The unaudited consolidated statements of income for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full year or for any subsequent period.
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of ExlService Holdings and all of its subsidiaries. All intercompanyThe standalone financial statements of subsidiaries are fully consolidated on a line-by-line basis. Intra-group balances and transactions, have beenand income and expenses arising from intra-group transactions, are eliminated in consolidation.while preparing those financial statements.
Non-controlling interest is the equity in a subsidiary not attributable, directly or indirectly, to the parent and it represents the minority partner’s interest in the operations of ExlService Colombia S.A.S. Non-controlling interest consistsAccounting policies of the amountrespective individual subsidiary and associate are aligned, wherever necessary, so as to ensure consistency with the accounting policies that are adopted by the Company under US GAAP.
The Company’s investments in equity affiliates are initially recorded at cost and any excess cost over proportionate share of such interestthe fair value of the net assets of the investee at the acquisition date of obtaining control over the subsidiary, and the non-controlling interest'sis recognized as goodwill. The proportionate share of changes in equity since that date. The non-controlling interest innet income or loss of the operations for all the periods presented were insignificant and are included under general and administrative expensesinvestee is recognized in the unaudited consolidated statements of income.

(b) Use of Estimates
The preparation of the unaudited consolidated financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the unaudited consolidated financial statements and the unaudited consolidated statements of income during the reporting period. Although these estimates are based on management’s best assessment of the current business environment, actual results may be different from those estimates. The significant estimates and assumptions that affect the financial statements include, but are not limited to, allowance for doubtful receivables, expected recoverability from customers with contingent fee arrangements, recoverability of service tax receivables,dues from statutory authorities, assets and obligations related to employee benefit plans, deferred tax valuation allowances, income-tax uncertainties and other contingencies, valuation of derivative financial instruments, assumptions used to calculate stock-based compensation expense, assumptions used to determine incremental borrowing rate to calculate lease liabilities and right-of-use (“ROU”) assets, lease term to calculate lease cost, depreciation and amortization periods, purchase price allocation, recoverability of long-termlong-lived assets including goodwill and intangibles, and estimatesestimated costs to complete fixed price contracts.
(c) Share-Based Compensation
In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-09, Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718). ASU No. 2016-09 identifies areas for simplification involving several aspects of accounting for share-based payment transactions, including the income tax consequences, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities, an option to recognize gross stock compensation expense with actual forfeitures recognized as they occur, as well as certain classifications on the Statement of Cash Flows. The amendments are effective for all entities for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2016. The Company adopted this ASU effective January 1, 2017. The following summarizes the effects of the adoption on the Company's unaudited consolidated financial statements:

Income taxes - Upon adoption
(c) Employee Benefits
Contributions to defined contribution plans are charged to the unaudited consolidated statements of this standard, all excess tax benefits and tax deficiencies are recognized as income tax expense or benefit in the income statement. The tax effects of exercised or vested awards are treated as discrete items in the reporting period in which services are rendered by the covered employees. Current service costs for defined benefit plans are accrued in the period to which they occur. relate. The liability in respect of defined benefit plans is calculated annually by the Company using the projected unit credit method. Prior service cost, if any, resulting from an amendment to a plan is recognized and amortized over the remaining period of service of the covered employees.
The Company also recognizes excess tax benefits regardless ofits liabilities for compensated absences depending on whether the obligation is attributable to employee services already rendered, relates to rights that vest or accumulate and payment is probable and estimable.
The Company includes the service cost component of the net periodic benefit reduces taxes payablecost in the same line item or items as other compensation costs arising from services rendered by the respective employees during the period. The interest cost, expected return on plan assets and amortization of actuarial gains/loss are classified in “Other income, net”. Refer Note 20 to the unaudited consolidated financial statements for details.

(d) Cash and Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash
The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of ninety days or less to be cash equivalents. Pursuant to the Company’s investment policy, surplus funds are invested in highly-rated debt mutual funds, money market accounts and time deposits to reduce its exposure to market risk with regard to these funds.
Restricted cash represents amounts on deposit with banks against bank guarantees issued through banks in favor of relevant statutory authorities for equipment imports, deposits for obtaining indirect tax registrations and for demands against pending income tax assessments (refer Note 26 to the unaudited consolidated financial statements for details). These deposits with banks have maturity dates after June 30, 2020. Restricted cash presented under current period. As a result,assets represents funds held on behalf of clients in dedicated bank accounts.
For purposes of the unaudited statements of cash flows, the Company recognized discrete adjustments to income tax expense for the three months ended September 30, 2017includes in the amount of $3,488its cash and for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 in the amount of $7,169 related to excess tax benefits. No adjustmentcash-equivalent balances those amounts that have been classified as restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents.

(e) Revenue Recognition
Revenue is recorded for any windfall benefits previously recorded in Additional Paid-In Capital.

Forfeitures - Prior to adoption, share-based compensation expense was recognized on a straight line basis, net of estimated forfeitures, such that expense was recognized only for share-based awards that are expected to vest. A forfeiture rate was estimated annually and revised, if necessary, in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differed from initial estimates. Upon adoption, the Company will no longer apply a forfeiture rate and instead will account for forfeitures as they occur. The Company has applied the modified retrospective adoption approach as of January 1, 2017 and has recognized a cumulative-effect adjustment to reduce additional paid-in-capital of $5,999 and retained earnings of $4,546 (net of deferred tax effect of $1,453).

Statements of Cash Flows - The Company historically accounted for excess tax benefits on the Statement of Cash Flows as a financing activity. Upon adoption of this standard, excess tax benefits are classified along with other income tax cash flows as an operating activity. The Company has elected to adopt this portion of the standard on a prospective basis beginning in 2017 and accordingly prior periods have not been adjusted.
Earnings Per Share - The Company uses the treasury stock method to compute diluted earnings per share, unless the effect would be anti-dilutive. The Company excluded the excess tax benefits from the assumed proceeds available to repurchase shares in the computation of diluted earnings per share.
(d) Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers”. This standard update along with subsequently issued updates, clarifies the principles for recognizing revenue and develops a common revenue standard for United States generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) and is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017. The comprehensive new standard will supersede existing revenue recognition guidance and require revenue to be recognized when promised goods or services ("performance obligations") are transferredprovided to the Company's customers, in amountsan amount that reflectreflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods orthe services ("provided.

In March 2016,
Type of Contracts
a.Revenues under time-and-material, transaction and outcome-based contracts are recognized as the services are performed. When the terms of the client contract specify service level parameters that must be met (such as turnaround time or accuracy), the Company monitors such service level parameters to determine if any service credits or penalties have been incurred. Revenues are recognized net of any penalties or service credits that are due to a client.
b.Revenues from arrangements involving subcontracting, either in part or whole of the assigned work, are recognized after Company’s assessment of “Principal versus agent considerations”. The Company evaluates whether it is in control of the services before the same are transferred to the customer to assess whether it is Principal or Agent in the arrangement. Revenues are recognized on Gross basis if the Company is in the capacity of Principal and on Net basis if it falls in the capacity of an agent.
c.Revenues for the Company’s fixed-price contracts are recognized using the proportional performance method when the pattern of performance under the contracts can be reasonably determined. The Company estimates the proportional performance of a contract by comparing the actual number of hours or days worked to the estimated total number of hours or days required to complete each engagement. The use of the proportional performance method requires significant judgment relative to estimating the number of hours or days required to complete the contracted scope of work, including assumptions and estimates relative to the length of time to complete the project and the nature and complexity of the work to be performed. The Company regularly monitors its estimates for completion of a project and record changes in the period in which a change in an estimate is determined. If a change in an estimate results in a projected loss on a project, such loss is recognized in the period in which it is first identified.
d.Revenue from the Company’s software and related services contracts, which are not significant, are primarily related to annual maintenance renewals or incremental license fees for additional users. Maintenance revenues are generally recognized on a straight-line basis over the annual contract term. Fees for incremental license without any associated services are recognized upon delivery of the related incremental license.
To a lesser extent, certain contracts may include offerings such as sale of licenses, which may be perpetual or subscription-based. The Company recognizes revenue from distinct perpetual licenses upfront at a point in time when the FASB issued ASU 2016-08, software is made available to the client, whereas for a combined software license and services performance obligation, revenue is recognized over the period that the services are performed.
Revenue from Contractsdistinct subscription based licenses is recognized over the period of service performed. Revenue from any associated maintenance or ongoing support services is recognized over the term of the contract.
e.Revenues from reimbursement optimization services having contingent fee arrangements are recognized by the Company at the point in time when a performance obligation is satisfied, which is when it identifies an overpayment claim and the same is acknowledged by its customers. In such contracts, the Company’s consideration is contingent upon the actual collections made by its customers and subsequent potential retraction claims. Based on guidance on “variable consideration” in Topic 606, the Company uses its historical experience and projections to determine the expected recoveries from its customers and recognizes revenue based upon such expected recoveries. Any adjustment required due to change in estimates are recorded in the period in which such change is identified.
Modification to contracts

The Company’s contracts may be modified to add, remove or change existing performance obligations. The accounting for modifications to contracts involves assessing whether the services added to an existing contract are distinct and whether the pricing is at the standalone selling price. Services added that are distinct and at standalone selling price are accounted on a prospective basis either as a separate contract, or as a termination of existing contract and creation of a new contract.

Arrangements with Customers: Principal versus Agent Considerations (Reporting Revenue Gross versus Net). ASU 2016-08 clarifiesMultiple Performance Obligations

The Company’s contracts with customers do not generally bundle different services together except for software and related services contracts, which are not significant, involving implementation services and post contract maintenance services. In such

software and related services contracts, revenue is allocated to each performance obligation based on the implementation guidance on principal versus agent considerations. The guidance includes indicators to assist an entity in determining whether it controls a specified good orrelative standalone selling price. A separate contract is generally drafted for each type of service before it is transferredsold, even if to the customers. The amendments are effective for all entities for fiscal years,same customer.

Variable Consideration

Variability in the transaction price arises primarily due to service level agreements, pre-payment and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2017. volume discounts.

The Company is currently evaluatingconsiders its experience with similar transactions and expectations regarding the impact thatcontract in estimating the adoptionamount of this guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). ASU 2016-02 requires the identification of arrangementsvariable consideration that should be accountedrecognized during a period.

The Company believes that the expected value method is most appropriate for determining the variable consideration since the Company has large number of contracts with similar nature of transactions/services.

Allocation of transaction price to performance obligations

The transaction price is allocated to performance obligations on a relative standalone selling price basis. Standalone selling prices are estimated by reference to the total transaction price less the sum of the observable standalone selling prices of other goods or services promised in the contract.  In assessing whether to allocate variable consideration to a specific part of the contract, the Company considers the nature of the variable payment and whether it relates specifically to its efforts to satisfy a specific part of the contract.

Unbilled Receivables

Unbilled receivables represents revenues recognized for services rendered between the last billing date and the balance sheet date. Unbilled receivables also include revenues recognized from reimbursement optimization services when the Company identifies an overpayment claim and the same is acknowledged by its customers, however not invoiced at the balance sheet date. Accordingly, amounts for services that the Company has performed and for which an invoice has not yet been issued to the customers are presented as a part of unbilled receivables under accounts receivables.

Deferred Revenue

The Company has deferred revenue attributable to certain process transition activities, with respect to its customers where such activities do not represent separate performance obligations. Revenues related to such transition activities are contract liabilities classified under “Deferred Revenue” in the Company's consolidated balance sheets and subsequently recognized over the period in which the related services are performed. Costs related to such transition activities are contract fulfillment costs, and thereby classified under “Other Current Assets” and “Other Assets” in the consolidated balance sheets, and are recognized over the estimated expected period of benefit, under Cost of Revenues in the consolidated statements of income. Deferred revenue also includes the amount for which services have been rendered but other conditions of revenue recognition are not met, for example where the Company does not have an enforceable contract.

Contract Acquisition Cost

Direct and incremental costs incurred for acquiring contracts, such as sales commissions are contract acquisition costs and thereby classified under “Other Current Assets” and “Other Assets” in the consolidated balance sheets. Such costs are amortized over the expected period of benefit and recorded under Selling and marketing expenses in the consolidated statements of income.

Upfront payment made to customer

Upfront payments, if any, made to customers are contract assets and classified under “Other Current Assets and Other Assets” in the consolidated balance sheets. Such costs are amortized over the expected period of benefit and are recorded as an adjustment to transaction price and reduced from revenues.

(In thousands, except share and per share amounts)

Out of pocket expenses

Reimbursements of out-of-pocket expenses received from clients are included as part of revenues.

Payment terms

All contracts entered into by the Company specify the payment terms and are defined for each contract separately. Usual payment terms range between 30-60 days. The Company does not have any extended payment terms clauses in existing contracts.

Remaining Performance Obligation

The Company does not disclose the value of remaining performance obligations by applying the practical expedient provided in Topic 606, for contracts that meet any of the following criteria:

i.Contract with an original expected length of one year or less as determined under ASC 606,
ii.Contracts for which Company recognize revenue based on the right to invoice for service performed.
Accounts Receivable

The Company records accounts receivable net of allowances for doubtful accounts. Allowances for doubtful accounts are established through the evaluation of aging of accounts receivables, prior collection experience, current market conditions, clients’ financial condition and the amount of accounts receivables in dispute to estimate the collectability of these accounts receivables.

(f) Leases

The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception. Operating leases by lessees. In general,are included in "operating lease right-of-use ("ROU") assets", "current portion of operating lease liabilities" and "operating lease liabilities, less current portion" in the Company's unaudited consolidated balance sheets. Finance leases are included in "property and equipment", "current portion of finance lease obligations" and "finance lease obligations, less current portion" in the Company's unaudited consolidated balance sheets.

ROU assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease arrangements exceeding a twelve month term these arrangements must now be recognized asand lease liabilities represent the Company’s obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the balance sheetpresent value of lease payments over the lessee. Under ASU 2016-02, a right-of-use asset and lease obligationterm. For leases in which the rate implicit in the lease is not readily determinable, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. Lease terms include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that the Company will be recorded for all leases, whether operating or financing, while the income statement will reflect leaseexercise that option. Lease expense for operating lease arrangements is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The Company has lease agreements with lease and non-lease components, which are accounted for separately.

On January 1, 2019, the date of initial application, the Company adopted, Leases (Topic 842), using the modified retrospective method. The modified retrospective method provides a method of recording those leases and amortization/interest expense for financing leases. The balance sheet amount recorded for existing leases atwhich had not expired as of the date of adoption of ASU 2016-02 must be calculated using the applicable incremental borrowing rate at the date of adoption. In addition, ASU 2016-02 requires the use of the modified retrospective method, which will require adjustment to all comparative periods presented in the consolidated financial statements.January 1, 2019. The new guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that the adoption of this guidance will have on itsprior period unaudited consolidated financial statements have not been retrospectively adjusted and the implementation approachcontinues to be used.reported under Topic 840.


The Company elected the practical expedient permitted under the transition guidance under Topic 842, which amongst other matters, allowed the Company (i) not to apply the recognition requirements to short-term leases (leases with a lease term of 12 months or less), (ii) not to reassess whether any expired or existing contracts are or contain leases, (iii) not to reassess the lease classification for any expired or existing leases, and (iv) not to reassess initial direct costs for any existing leases.

The adoption resulted in the recognition of ROU assets of $80,328, net of deferred rent of $8,626 and lease liabilities of $88,954 for operating leases as of January 1, 2019. The Company's accounting for finance leases remained substantially unchanged.

(g) Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In June 2016, FASBthe Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses, which requirerequires a financial asset (or a group of financial assets) measured at amortized cost basis to be presented at the net amount expected to be collected.

(h) Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
In February 2016, FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), which requires the identification of arrangements that should be accounted for as leases. Lease arrangements exceeding a twelve months term should be recognized as assets with corresponding liabilities on the balance sheet of the lessee. This ASU requires recognition of an ROU asset and lease obligation for those leases classified as operating leases under Topic 840, while the income statement will reflect lease expense for operating leases. The balance sheet amounts recorded for existing operating leases at the date of adoption of this ASU must be calculated using the applicable incremental borrowing rate. The Company adopted Topic 842 as of January 1, 2019 using the modified retrospective method provided by ASU 2018-11. The adoption had a material impact on the Company's unaudited consolidated balance sheets, but did not have a material impact on the Company's unaudited consolidated income statements and unaudited consolidated statements of cash flows. The most significant impact was the recognition of ROU assets and lease liabilities for operating leases, while the Company's accounting for finance leases remained substantially unchanged. Refer Note 21 to the unaudited consolidated financial statements for details.
In July 2018, FASB issued ASU No. 2018-11, Leases (Topic 842), which provide entities with an additional (and optional) transition method to adopt the new leases standard. Under this new transition method, an entity initially applies the new leases standard at the adoption date and recognizes a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings in the period of adoption. Consequently, an entity’s reporting for the comparative periods presented in the financial statements in which it adopts the new leases standard will continue to be in accordance with current GAAP (Topic 840, Leases). The Company adopted Topic 842 as of January 1, 2019 using this ASU. Refer Note 21 to the unaudited consolidated financial statements for details.
3. Segment and Geographical Information


The Company operates in the BPM industry and is a provider of operations management and analytics services. The Company has eight operating segments, which are strategic business units that align its products and services with how it manages its business, approaches its key markets and interacts with its clients. Six of those operating segments provide BPM or “operations management” services, five of which the Company organizes intoare industry-focused operating segments (Insurance, Healthcare, Travel, Transportation and Logistics, Banking and Financial Services, and Utilities) and one of which is a “capability” operating segment (Finance and Accounting) that provides services to clients in our industry-focused segments as well as clients across other industries. In each of these six operating segments, the Company provides operations management services, which typically involve transfer to the Company of selectthe business operations of a client, after which it administers and manages those operations for its client on an ongoing basis. The remaining two operating segments are Consulting, which provides industry-specific transformational services related to operations management services, and the Analytics, operating segment, which provides services that focus on driving improved business outcomes for clients by generating data-driven insights across all parts of their business.


In prior periods the Company presented two reportable segments: Operations Management (which included its Insurance, Healthcare, Travel, Transportation and Logistics, Finance and Accounting, Banking and Financial services, Utilities and Consulting operating segments) and Analytics. Effective for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2016, theThe Company presents information for the following reportable segments:

The Company does not allocate and therefore the CODM does not evaluate other operating expenses, interest expense or income taxes by segment. Many of the Company’s assets are shared by multiple operating segments. The Company manages these assets on a total Company basis, not by operating segment, and therefore asset information and capital expenditures by operating segment are not presented.

4.5. Earnings Per Share
Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during each period. Diluted earnings per share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares plus the potentially dilutive effect of common stock equivalents (outstanding stock options, restricted stock and restricted stock units) issued and outstanding at the reporting date, using the treasury stock method. Stock options, restricted stock and restricted stock units that are anti-dilutive are excluded from the computation of weighted average shares outstanding.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, the Company performed an impairment test of its long-lived assets of its Health Integrated business. Based on the results, the long-lived assets carrying value exceeded their fair value. The primary factor contributing to a reduction in the fair value is the commencement of the wind down of the Health Integrated business, and an anticipated reduction to the Company's estimated future cash flows. As a result of this analysis, the Company recognized impairment charges of $951 and $2,178 during the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively, to write down the carrying value of property and equipment to its fair value. This impairment charge was recorded in the unaudited consolidated statements of income under "Impairment and restructuring charges".

SCIOinspire Holdings Inc.

On July 1, 2018, the Company, through its wholly owned subsidiary ExlService.com, LLC (“Buyer”) and Buyer’s wholly owned subsidiary, ExlService Cayman Merger Sub, completed the acquisition of SCIO pursuant to an Agreement of Merger dated April 28, 2018 (the "Merger Agreement"). ExlService Cayman Merger Sub, merged with and into SCIO, with SCIO surviving the merger as a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Buyer.

SCIO is a health analytics solution and services company serving healthcare organizations including providers, health plans, pharmacy benefit managers, employers, health services and global life sciences companies. The acquisition is expected to significantly strengthen the Company’s capability in the high growth cost optimization and care optimization markets. The acquisition of SCIO is included in the Analytics reportable segment.

The following table sets forth detailsaggregate purchase consideration was $245,044, including cash and cash equivalents acquired and post-closing adjustments. The aggregate base purchase consideration payable at closing of the Company’s goodwill balancemerger was $236,500 based on completion of diligence, which was adjusted based on, among other things, SCIO’s cash, debt, working capital position and other adjustments as of September 30, 2017:the Closing as set forth in the Merger Agreement.

Pursuant to the Company’s business combinations accounting policy, the total purchase consideration for SCIO was allocated to identifiable net tangible and intangible assets based upon their preliminary fair values. The excess of the purchase consideration over fair value of identifiable net tangible and intangible assets was recorded as goodwill. In order to allocate the consideration transferred for SCIO, the fair values of all identifiable assets and liabilities were established. For accounting and financial reporting purposes, fair value is defined under ASC No. 820, Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure, as the price that would be received

upon sale of an asset or the amount paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Market participants are assumed to be buyers and sellers in the principal (most advantageous) market for the asset or liability. Additionally, fair value measurements for an asset assume the highest and best use of that asset by market participants. Use of different estimates and judgments could yield different results.

The Company’s purchase price allocation to net tangible and intangible assets of SCIO is as follows:

Assets:  
Cash and cash equivalents $9,842
Restricted cash 2,790
Accounts receivable 19,924
Other current assets 2,076
Property and equipment 1,824
Other assets 1,751
Intangible assets  
Customer relationships 47,800
Developed technology 21,400
Trade names and trademarks 3,700

Liabilities:

Deferred tax liabilities, net (17,132)
Other non-current liabilities (200)
  (29,814)
   
Net assets acquired $81,293
Goodwill 163,751
Total purchase consideration $245,044


The fair values of the trade names and trademarks intangible assets were determined by using an “income approach”, specifically the relief-from-royalty approach. The basic principle of the relief-from-royalty method is that without ownership of the subject intangible asset, the user of that intangible asset would have to make a stream of payments to the owner of the asset in return for the rights to use that asset. By acquiring the intangible asset, the user avoids these payments. Therefore, a portion of SCIO’s earnings, equal to the after-tax royalty that would have been paid for the use of the asset, can be attributed to the firm’s ownership. The trade names and trademarks are being amortized on a straight-line basis (which approximates the economic pattern of benefits) over the estimated economic life of 3 years.

The fair values of the developed technology intangible assets were also determined by the relief-from-royalty approach. Similarly, this approach is based on the assumption that in lieu of ownership, a firm would be willing to pay a royalty in order to exploit the related benefits of the technology. Therefore, a portion of SCIO’s earnings, equal to the after-tax royalty that would have been paid for the use of the technology, can be attributed to the firm’s ownership of the technology. The technology assets are being amortized on a straight-line basis (which approximates the economic pattern of benefits) over the estimated economic life of 5 years.

The fair values of the customer relationships were determined by using an “income approach”, specifically the Multi-Period Excess Earnings Method ("MPEEM"). The MPEEM is a specific application of the discounted cash flow method. The principle behind the MPEEM is that the value of an intangible asset is equal to the present value of the incremental after-tax cash flows attributable only to the subject intangible asset after deducting Contributory Asset Charges ("CAC"). The principle behind a CAC is that an intangible asset ‘rents’ or ‘leases’ from a hypothetical third party all the assets it requires to produce the cash flows

resulting from its development, that each project rents only those assets it needs (including elements of goodwill) and not the ones that it does not need, and that each project pays the owner of the assets a fair return on (and of, when appropriate) the value of the rented assets. The customer relationship assets are being amortized on a straight-line basis (which approximates the economic pattern of benefits) over the estimated economic life of 10 years.

The goodwill recognized is attributable primarily to expected synergies from continuing operations of SCIO and the Company. The amount of goodwill recognized from SCIO's acquisition is not deductible for tax purposes. The goodwill has been assigned to our Analytics reportable segment based upon the Company’s assessment of nature of services rendered by SCIO.

During the fourth quarter of 2018, the Company performed its annual impairment test of goodwill for all its reporting units. Based on the results, the fair values of each of the Company’s reporting units exceeded their carrying values except for the Health Integrated reporting unit, within the Healthcare operating segment. The primary factors contributing to a reduction in the fair value of the Health Integrated reporting unit were: (i) revenues and profitability in 2018 were significantly lower than the Company’s budget; and (ii) significant changes to the Company's estimated future cash flows and long-term growth assumptions for the Health Integrated reporting unit driven by loss of customer contracts, cost pressures and the Company’s most recent views of the long-term outlook for the Health Integrated business. As a result of this analysis, the Company recognized a goodwill impairment charge of $14,229 during the fourth quarter to write down the carrying value of Health Integrated’s goodwill to its fair value of $nil as of December 31, 2018. This impairment charge was recorded in the consolidated statements of income under "Impairment and restructuring charges".

As of June 30, 2019, the Company believes no other goodwill impairment exists, apart from the impairment charges discussed above, and that the remaining goodwill is recoverable for all of its reporting units; however, there can be no assurances that additional goodwill will not be impaired in future periods. Estimating the fair value of reporting units requires the use of estimates and significant judgments that are based on a number of factors including actual operating results. It is reasonably possible that the judgments and estimates described above could change in future periods.

During the fourth quarter of 2018, the Company recognized impairment charges of $5,549 and $278 related to its customer relationships and trademarks intangible assets, respectively, in the Health Integrated reporting unit, within the Healthcare operating segment. The Company tested these intangible assets for recoverability due to indicators warranting the impairment test such as: (i) revenues and profitability in 2018 were significantly lower than the Company’s budget, and (ii) significant changes to the Company's estimated future cash flows and long-term growth assumptions for the Health Integrated reporting unit driven by loss of customer contracts, cost pressures and the Company’s most recent views of the long-term outlook for the Health Integrated business. Based on the results of its testing, the Company determined that the carrying value of the intangible assets was not recoverable, and an impairment charge was recorded to the extent that carrying value exceeded estimated fair value. This impairment charge was recorded in the consolidated statements of income under "Impairment and restructuring charges". Subsequent to the

15.The net proceeds from the issuance of the Notes were approximately $149,000, after deducting debt issuance costs of $1,000 and offering expenses of approximately $442 paid by the Company. These transaction and debt issuance costs were allocated between the liability and equity components based on their relative values. The transaction costs and debt issuance costs allocated to the liability and equity components were $1,279 and $163, respectively. The debt issuance costs allocated to the liability component are deferred and amortized as an adjustment to interest expense over the term of the Notes. The unamortized debt issuance costs is presented as a direct reduction from the Notes in the unaudited consolidated balance sheets. The unamortized debt issuance costs as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 was $1,125 and $1,127, respectively.
The Company accounted for the liability and equity components of the Notes separately to reflect its non-convertible debt borrowing rate. The estimated fair value of the liability component at issuance of $133,077 was determined using a discounted cash flow technique, which considered debt issuances with similar features of the Company’s debt, excluding the conversion feature. The resulting effective interest rate for the Notes was 5.75% per annum. The excess of the gross proceeds received over the estimated fair value of the liability component totaling $16,923 was allocated to the conversion feature (equity component, recorded as additional paid-in capital) with a corresponding offset recognized as a discount to reduce the net carrying value of the Notes. The discount is being amortized to interest expense over a six-year period ending October 1, 2024 (the expected life of the liability component) using the effective interest method. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, the Company amortized $618 and $1,218, respectively, of the discount to interest expense. At the time of issuance, the Company evaluated the Notes in accordance with ASC 815-15 and determined that the Notes contain a single embedded derivative, being the call option having market interest rates as the underlying, which does not require bifurcation as the features clearly and closely related to the host instrument. The Company determined that the value of this embedded derivative was nominal as of the date of issuance.
Borrowings also includes structured payables which are in the nature of debt, amounting to $1,524 and $2,114 as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively, of which $885 and $1,423 is included under "current portion of long-term borrowings", and $639 and $691, respectively, included under "long-term borrowings" in the unaudited consolidated balance sheets.

26. Commitments and Contingencies

Fixed Asset Commitments
At SeptemberJune 30, 2017,2019, the Company has committed to spend approximately $7,407$7,495 under agreements to purchase fixed assets.property and equipment. This amount is net of capital advances paid in respect of these purchases.

Other Commitments

Certain units of the Company’s Indian subsidiaries were established as 100% Export-Oriented units or under the Software Technology Parks of India (“STPI”) scheme promulgated by the Government of India. These units are exempt from customs, central excise duties, and levies on imported and indigenous capital goods, stores, and spares. The Company has undertaken to pay custom duties, service taxes, levies, and liquidated damages payable, if any, in respect of imported and indigenous capital goods, stores and spares consumed duty free, in the event that certain terms and conditions are not fulfilled. The Company’s management believes, however, that these units have in the past satisfied and will continue to satisfy the required conditions.
The Company’s operations centers in the Philippines are registered with the Philippine Economic Zone Authority (“PEZA”). The registration provides the Company with certain fiscal incentives on the import of capital goods and requires ExlService Philippines, Inc. to meet certain performance and investment criteria. The Company’s management believes that these centers have in the past satisfied and will continue to satisfy the required criteria.

In March 2017, the Company was named as a defendant in a putative class action lawsuit filed in California, which challenged the classification of independent contractors. The parties participated in a mediation in early 2018. As the result of the mediation, a settlement was reached pursuant to which the Company agreed, without admission of wrongdoing, to pay a total of $2,400, of which $1,200 was paid in 2018 and the remainder has been paid during the three months ended March 31, 2019.

Contingencies
U.S. and Indian transfer pricing regulations require that any international transaction involving associated enterprises be at an arm’s-length price. Accordingly, the Company determines the appropriate pricing for the international transactions among its associated enterprises on the basis of a detailed functional and economic analysis involving benchmarking against transactions among entities that are not under common control. The tax authorities have jurisdiction to review this arrangement and in the event that they determine that the transfer price applied was not appropriate, the Company may incur increased tax liability, including accrued interest and penalties. The Company is currently involved in disputes with the Indian tax authorities over the application

of some of its transfer pricing policies for some of its subsidiaries. Further, the Company and a U.S. subsidiary are engaged in tax litigation with the income-tax authorities in India on the issue of permanent establishment. The Company is subject to taxation in the United States and various states and foreign jurisdictions. For the U.S. and India, tax year 2015 and subsequent tax years remain open for examination by the tax authorities as of June 30, 2019.

The aggregate disputed amount demanded by IndianIncome tax authorities (net of advance payments, if any) from the Company primarily related to its transfer pricing issues for years ranging from tax years 2003 to 2014 and its permanent establishment issues ranging fromfor tax years 2003 to 2007 as of SeptemberJune 30, 20172019 and December 31, 20162018 is $16,075$17,924 and $17,963,$18,177, respectively, of which the Company has made payments or provided bank guaranteeguarantees to the extent $8,418of $8,262 and $8,640,$8,171, respectively. Amounts paid as deposits in respect of such assessments aggregating to $6,389$6,343 and $6,690$6,272 as of SeptemberJune 30, 20172019 and December 31, 2016,2018, respectively, are included in “Other assets” and amounts deposited for bank guarantees aggregating to $2,029$1,919 and $1,950$1,899 as of SeptemberJune 30, 20172019 and December 31, 2016,2018, respectively, are included in “Restricted cash” in the non-current assets section of the Company’s unaudited consolidated balance sheets as of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016.sheets.

Based on advice from its Indian tax advisors, the facts underlying the Company’s position and its experience with these types of assessments, the Company believes that its position will more likely than not be sustained upon final examination by the probability that it will ultimately be found liable for these assessments is remotetax authorities based on its technical merits as of the reporting date and accordingly has not accrued any amount with respect to these matters in its unaudited consolidated financial statements. The Company does not expect any impact from these assessments on its future income tax expense. It is possible that the Company might receive similar orders or assessments from tax authorities for subsequent years. Accordingly, even if these disputes are resolved, the Indian tax authorities may still serve additional orders or assessments.

On October 24, 2017,June 30, 2019
(In thousands, except share and per share amounts)

During the quarter ended March 31, 2019, there was a wholly owned subsidiaryjudicial pronouncement in India with respect to defined contribution benefits payments interpreting certain statutory defined contribution obligations of employees and employers. It is unclear whether the interpretation set out in the pronouncement has retrospective application. If applied retrospectively, the interpretation would result in an increase in contributions payable by the Company for past and future periods for certain of its India-based employees. There are numerous interpretative challenges concerning the retrospective application of the judgment. Due to such challenges and a lack of interpretive guidance, and based on legal advice, the Company believes it is currently impracticable to reliablyestimate the timing and amount of any payments the Company may be required to make. Accordingly, the Company will re-evaluate the amount of a potential provision, if any, upon further analysis.

From time to time, the Company and/or its present officers or directors, on individual basis, may be or have been, named as a defendant in litigation matters, including employment-related claims. The plaintiffs in those cases seek damages, including, where applicable, compensatory damages, punitive damages and attorneys’ fees. With respect to pending litigation matters as of the reporting date, the Company believes that the damages amounts claimed in such cases are not meaningful indicators of the potential liabilities of the Company, entered into a definitive purchase agreementthat these matters are without merit, and that the Company intends to acquire substantially all the assetsvigorously defend each of Health Integrated, Inc.

It is known for its strong capabilities in improving member health status through behavioral change. The acquisition is expected to close in the first quarter of 2018, subject to significant uncertainties, and thus it is inherently difficult to determine the fulfillmentlikelihood of certain closing conditions,the Company incurring a material loss or quantification of any such loss. With respect to pending litigation matters as of the reporting date, based on information currently available, including regulatorythe Company’s assessment of the facts underlying each matter and other consents.advice of counsel, the amount or range of reasonably possible losses, if any, cannot be reasonably estimated. Based on the Company’s assessment, including the availability of insurance recoveries, the Company’s management does not believe that currently pending litigation, individually or in aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

worldwide political, economic or business conditions;
negative public reaction in the U.S. or elsewhere to offshore outsourcing;

Our Business
We provide operations management and analytics services. We market our services to our existing and prospective clients through our sales and client management teams, which are aligned by key industry verticals and cross-industry domains such as finance and accounting. Our sales and client management teams operate from the U.S., Europe and Australia.
Operations Management Services: We provide our clients with a range of operations management services principally in the Insurance, Healthcare, Travel, Transportationinsurance, healthcare, travel, transportation and Logistics, Bankinglogistics, banking and Financial Servicesfinancial services and Utilitiesutilities sectors, among others, as well as cross-industry operations management services, such as Financefinance and Accounting Services.accounting services. We also provide services related to operations management, through our Consulting services that provide advice regardingprovides industry-specific digital transformational initiatives.services.
Our operations management solutions typically involve the transfer to the Company of select business operations of a client such as claims processing, clinical operations, or financial transaction processing, after which we administer and manage the operations for our client on an ongoing basis. As part of this transfer, we hire and train employees to work at our operations centers on the relevant business operations, implement a process migration to these operations centers and then provide services either to the client or directly to the client’s customers. Each client contract has different terms based on the scope, deliverables and complexity of the engagement.
We have been observing a shift in industry pricing models toward transaction-based pricing, outcome-based pricing and other pricing models. We believe this trend will continue and we have begun to use such alternative pricing models with some of our current clients and are seeking to move certain other clients from a billing rate model to a transaction-based or other pricing model. These pricing models place the focus on operating efficiency in order to maintain our gross margins. In addition, we have also observed that prospective larger clients are entering into multi-vendor relationships with regard to their outsourcing needs. We believe that the trend toward multi-vendor relationships will continue. A multi-vendor relationship allows a client to seek more favorable pricing and other contract terms from each vendor, which can result in significantly reduced gross margins from the provision of services to such client for each vendor. To the extent our large clients expand their use of multi-vendor relationships and are able to extract more favorable contract terms from other vendors, our gross margins and revenues may be reduced with regard to such clients if we are required to modify the terms of our relationships with such clients to meet competition.
Our existing agreements with original terms of three or more years provide us with a relatively predictable revenue base for a substantial portion of our operations management business, however, we have a long selling cycle for our services and the budget and approval processes of prospective clients make it difficult to predict the timing of entering into definitive agreements with new clients. Similarly, new license sales and implementation projects for our technology service platforms and other software-based services have a long selling cycle, however ongoing annual maintenance and support contracts for existing arrangements provide us with a relatively predictable revenue base.
Analytics: Our Analytics services focus on driving improved business outcomes for our customers by generating data-driven insights across all parts of our customers’ business. We also provide care optimization and reimbursement optimization services, for our clients through our healthcare analytics solutions and services. We also offer integrated solutions to help our clients in cost containment by leveraging technology platforms, customizable and configurable analytics and expertise in healthcare reimbursements to help clients enhance their claim payment accuracy. Our teams deliver predictive and prescriptive analytics in the areas of customer acquisition and lifecycle management, risk underwriting and pricing, operational effectiveness, credit and operational risk monitoring and governance, regulatory reporting, payment integrity and care management and data management.management . We actively cross-sell and, where appropriate, integrate our Analytics services with other operations management services as part of a comprehensive offering set for our clients.
We anticipate that revenues from our Analytics services will grow as we expand our service offerings and client base, both organically and through acquisitions.

However, while management of working capital, including timing

of collections and payments affects operating results only indirectly, the impact on the working capital and cash flows provided by operating activities can be significant
Cash flows provided by operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2019 was $47.7 million. This comprised of net income plus the net effect of non-cash items, such as depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation expense, amortization of operating lease right-of-use assets, deferred income taxes, impairment charges and others aggregating to $82.3 million. The primary working capital use of cash of $46.9 million during the six months ended June 30, 2019 was driven by an increase in accounts receivables, prepaid expenses and other current assets and decrease in operating lease liabilities, accrued employee costs and accounts payable. The primary working capital sources of cash of $12.3 million was driven by higher accrued expenses, deferred revenue, lower advance income tax and other assets.
Investing Activities: Cash flows provided by investing activities were $0.9 million for the ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2017.2019 as compared to cash flows provided by investing activities of $0.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018. The increase in cash flowsis mainly due to higher net proceeds from operations forredemption of investments of $23.5 million during the ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20172019 as compared to net proceeds from redemption of investments of $20.1 million during the six months ended June 30, 2018, offset by higher capital expenditures for purchase of long-lived assets, including investments in technology applications, product developments, digital technology and advanced automation & robotics of $3.0 million during the six months ended June 30, 2018 compared to the ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2016 was due to an increase in net income by $12.0 million, increase in non-cash adjustment of $3.9 million and decrease in working capital of $0.3 million from $25.2 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2016 to $24.9 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2017.2018.
Investing Activities: Cash flows used for investing activities increased by $45.0 million from $126.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 to $171.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017. The increase was primarily due to an increase in short-term investments of $47.2 million (net of redemption) and due to an increase in capital expenditures of $6.4 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2017 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2016. This was partially offset by amount paid for business acquisition of $9.4 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2016 compared to $0.7 million paid for settlement of working capital and purchase consideration payable related to 2016 acquisitions during the nine months ended September 30, 2017.
Financing Activities: Cash flows used for financing activities was $28.2were $61.1 million during the ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20172019 as compared to $34.2 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2016. The decrease in cash flowflows used for financing activities between periods isof $15.9 million during the six months ended June 30, 2018. The increase in cash flows used by financing activities was primarily due to higher repayment of borrowings of $25.0$40.5 million (net of proceeds) under theour Credit AgreementFacility (as described below in “Financing Arrangements”) during the ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2016. This was partially offset2019 and by higher purchases of treasury stock of $17.2by $4.4 million and lower proceeds from exercise of stock options of $2.0 millionunder our share repurchase program during the ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20172019 as compared to the ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2016.2018.
We expect to use cash from operating activities to maintain and expand our business. As we have focused on expanding our cash flow from operating activities we continue to make capitalbusiness by making investments primarily related to new facilities and capital expenditures associated with leasehold improvements to build our facilities, and the purchase of telecommunications equipment and computer hardware and software in connection with managing client operations. We incurred $26.8$22.3 million of capital expenditures in the ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2017.2019. We expect to incur capital expenditures of between $30.0$35.0 million to $35.0$40.0 million in 2017,2019, primarily to meet our growth requirements, including additions to our facilities as well as investments in technology applications, product development, digital technology, advanced automation & robotics and infrastructure, but the actual amount may vary based on economic conditions or other factors.infrastructure.
In connection with any tax assessment orders that have been issued or may be issued against us or our subsidiaries, we may be required to deposit additional amounts with respect to such assessment orders (refer(see Note 26 to Note 21 to theour unaudited consolidated financial statements contained herein for further details). We anticipate that we will continue to rely upon cash from operating activities to finance our smaller acquisitions, capital expenditures and working capital needs. If we have significant growth through acquisitions, we may need to obtain additional financing.

Convertible Senior Notes
On October 1, 2018, we entered into an investment agreement (the “Investment Agreement”) with Orogen Echo LLC (the “Purchaser”), an affiliate of The Orogen Group LLC, relating to the issuance to the Purchaser of $150.0 million in an aggregate principal amount of 3.50% Convertible Senior Notes due October 1, 2024 (the "Notes"). The transactions contemplated by the Investment Agreement, including the issuance of the Notes, closed on October 4, 2018. The Notes bear interest at a rate of 3.50% per annum, payable semi-annually in arrears in cash on April 1 and October 1 of each year. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, we recognized interest expense of $1.3 million and $2.6 million. The Notes are convertible at an initial conversion rate of 13.3333 shares of the common stock per $1,000 principal amount of the Notes (which represents an initial conversion price of approximately $75 per share). With certain exceptions, upon a fundamental change, as defined in the Indenture, the holders of the Notes may require us to repurchase all or part of the principal amount of the Notes at a purchase price equal to the specified prime rate (alternate base rate) or adjusted LIBO rate,principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest. We may redeem the principal amount of the Notes, at our option, in each case, an applicable margin. The applicable margin is tiedwhole but not in part, at a purchase price equal to the Company’s leverage ratioprincipal amount plus accrued and ranges from 0.3% to 0.8% per annum with respect to loans peggedunpaid interest on or after October 1, 2021, if the closing sale price of the common stock exceeds 150% of the then-current conversion price for 20 or more trading days in the 30 consecutive trading day period preceding our exercise of this redemption right (including the trading day immediately prior to the specified prime rate,date of the notice of redemption). We may elect to settle conversions of the Notes by paying or delivering, as the case may be, cash, shares of our common stock or a combination of cash and 1.3%shares of our common stock. We used the proceeds from the issuance of Notes to 1.8% per annum on loans pegged to the adjusted LIBO rate. The revolving credit commitmentsrepay $150.0 million of our outstanding borrowings under the Credit Agreement are subjectFacility.
We accounted for the liability and equity components of the Notes separately to reflect its non-convertible debt borrowing rate. The estimated fair value of the liability component at issuance of $133.1 million was determined using a commitment fee.discounted cash flow technique, which considered debt issuances with similar features of our debt, excluding the conversion feature. The commitment fee is also tied to the Company’s leverage ratio, and ranges from 0.2% to 0.3% per annum on the average daily amount by which the aggregate revolving commitments exceed the sum of outstanding revolving loans and letter of credit obligations. The Credit Facility carried anresulting effective interest rate for the Notes was 5.75% per annumannum. The excess of 2.9% and 2.7% during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, respectively.gross proceeds received over the estimated fair value of the liability component totaling $16.9 million, excluding tax effects, was allocated to the conversion feature (equity component, recorded as additional paid-in capital) with a corresponding offset recognized as a discount to reduce the net carrying value of the Notes. The discount is being amortized to interest expense over a six-year period ending October 1, 2024 (the expected life of the liability component) using the effective interest method.
Under the terms of the Notes, we are not prohibited from paying cash dividends unless payment would trigger an event of default or if one currently exists. We do not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
