2. Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies:
Our accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the basis of accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. ("U.S. GAAP"). The preparation of financial statements in conformity with these accounting principles 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 financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Significant estimates include acquisition purchase price allocations, the fair value of goodwill and intangibles, the realization of deferred tax assets and liabilities, acquisition-related liabilities, fair value of stock-based compensation for stock options and performance share units granted, and assets and liabilities for pension and postretirement benefits. Actual results may ultimately differ from those estimates.
Our condensed consolidated financial statements as of SeptemberJune 30, 20222023 and for the three and ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20222023 and 20212022, in the opinion of management, include all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring items, to present fairly our financial position, results of operations, and cash flows. Our operating results for the three and ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20222023 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. Our condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes as of and for the three and ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20222023 have been prepared on the same basis as and should be read in conjunction with our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 20212022. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules of the SEC. We believe the disclosures made are adequate to keep the information presented from being misleading.
Our operating segments have historically been Insurance, Energy and Specialized Markets, and Financial Services. On March 11, 2022 and April 8,October 28, 2022, we sold our environmental health and safety business, which represented the “specialized markets” inentered into an equity purchase agreement to sell our Energy business. We determined that the sale of our Energy business met the “held for sale” criteria and Specialized Markets segment,the “discontinued operations” criteria in accordance with Financial Accounting Standard Boards (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 205-20,Discontinued Operations (“ASC 205-20”) in the fourth quarter of 2022 due to its relative size and strategic rationale. The consolidated balance sheets, consolidated statements of operations, and the notes to the consolidated financial statements were recast for all periods presented to reflect the discontinuation of the Energy business, in accordance with ASC 205-20. The discussion in the notes to these consolidated financial statements, unless otherwise noted, relate solely to our Financial Services segment, respectively. Seecontinuing operations. On February 1, 2023, we completed the sale of our Energy business. Refer to Note 7. Dispositions and Discontinued Operationsfor further discussion. For the remainder of 2022, we will continue to show only the historical results of these dispositions in their respective previous operating segments.

The preliminary allocations of the purchase price for the 2022 and 2021 acquisitions with less than a year of ownership are subject to revisions as additional information is obtained about the facts and circumstances that existed as of each acquisition date. The revisions may have a significant impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements. The allocations of the purchase price will be finalized once all the information that was known and knowable as of the acquisition date is obtained and analyzed, but not to exceed one year from the acquisition date. The primary areas of the purchase price allocation that are not yet finalized relate to income and non-income taxes, deferred revenues, the valuation of intangible assets acquired, and residual goodwill. The goodwill associated with our acquisitions includes the acquired assembled workforce, the value associated with the opportunity to leverage the work force to continue to develop the technology and content assets, as well as our ability to grow through adding additional customer relationships or new solutions in the future. Of the $289.8 million in goodwill associated with our acquisitions, $150.0 million is not deductible for tax purposes. The preliminary amounts assigned to intangible assets by type for these acquisitions were based upon our valuation model and historical experiences with entities with similar business characteristics.
For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, we incurred transaction costs of $0.1 million and $1.7 million, respectively. The transaction costs were included within "Selling, general and administrative" expenses in our accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations. The 2022 acquisitions were immaterial to our condensed consolidated statement of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, and therefore, supplemental information disclosure on an unaudited pro forma basis is not presented.
On March 22, 2022, we acquired an additional 16% ownership in Whitespace Software Limited ("Whitespace") for $8.2 million, bringing our total ownership interest to 67%. The remaining 33% ownership interest in Whitespace will be acquired by us, in two equal proportions over the next two years, at a purchase price determined based upon a fixed revenue multiple and adjusted for any free cash flow shortfall.
Acquisition Escrows and Related Liabilities
Pursuant to the related acquisition agreements, we have funded various escrow accounts to satisfy pre-acquisition indemnity and tax claims arising subsequent to the applicable acquisition dates. At September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the current portion of the escrows amounted to $8.2 million and $10.6 million, respectively, and the noncurrent portion of the escrows amounted to $0.0 million and $4.7 million, respectively. The current and noncurrent portions of the escrows have been included in "Other current assets" and "Other noncurrent assets" in our accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets, respectively.
The acquisitions of Rebmark Legal Solutions Limited, ACTINEO GmbH, Data Driven Safety, LLC, and Infutor Data Solutions, LLC included acquisition-related contingent payments, for which the sellers of these acquisitions could receive additional payments by achieving the specific predetermined revenue, EBITDA, and/or EBITDA margin earn-out targets for exceptional performance. We believe that the liabilities recorded as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 reflect the best estimate of acquisition-related contingent payments. The associated current portion of contingent payments were $16.6 million and $0.5 million as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. The associated noncurrent portion of contingent payments were $21.9 million and $21.7 million as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.

Contract assets are defined as an entity's right to consideration in exchange for goods or services that the entity has transferred to a global informationcustomer when that right is conditioned on something other than the passage of time. As of June 30, 2023 and insights company, was completedDecember 31, 2022, we had no contract assets. Contract liabilities are defined as an entity's obligation to transfer goods or services to a customer for net cash proceedswhich the entity has received consideration (or an amount of $498.3 million. An impairment lossconsideration is due) from the customer. As of $73.7June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, we had contract liabilities that primarily related to unsatisfied performance obligations to provide customers with the right to use and update the online content over the remaining contract term of $468.7 million and $321.7 million, respectively. Contract liabilities, which are current and noncurrent, are included in "Deferred revenues" and "Other noncurrent liabilities" in our condensed consolidated balance sheets, respectively, as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022.
The following is a losssummary of the change in contract liabilities from December 31, 2022 through June 30, 2023:
Contract liabilities at December 31, 2022 | $ | 321.7 | ||
Revenue | (1,326.6 | ) | ||

Foreign currency translation adjustment | (2.8 | ) | ||

Contract liabilities at June 30, 2023 | $ | 468.7 |
Our most significant remaining performance obligations relate to providing customers with the right to use and update the online content over the remaining contract term. Our disclosure of the timing for satisfying the performance obligation is based on the salerequirements of $15.6 contracts with customers. However, from time to time, these contracts may be subject to modifications, impacting the timing of satisfying the performance obligations. These performance obligations, which are expected to be satisfied within one year, comprised approximately 99% and 98% of the balance at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022.
We recognize an asset for incremental costs of obtaining a contract with a customer if we expect the benefits of those costs to be longer than one year. As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, we had deferred commissions of $75.6 million and $69.7 million, respectively, which have been included in "Prepaid expenses" and "Other noncurrent assets" in our accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets.
4. Investments and Fair Value Measurements:
We have certain assets and liabilities that are reported at fair value in our accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. To increase consistency and comparability of assets and liabilities recorded at fair value, ASC 820-10,Fair Value Measurements, established a three-level fair value hierarchy to prioritize the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. ASC 820-10 requires disclosures detailing the extent to which companies measure assets and liabilities at fair value, the methods and assumptions used to measure fair value, and the effect of fair value measurements on earnings. In accordance with ASC 820-10, we applied the following fair value hierarchy:
Level 1 - | Assets or liabilities for which the identical item is traded on an active exchange, such as publicly-traded instruments. |
Level 2 - | Assets or liabilities valued based on observable market data for similar instruments. |
Level 3 - | Assets or liabilities for which significant valuation assumptions are not readily observable in the market; instruments valued based on the best available data, some of which are internally-developed, and considers risk premiums that market participants would require. |
The fair values of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, and short-term debt approximate their carrying amounts, because of the short-term nature of these instruments. Our investments in registered investment companies, which are Level 1 assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis, were $2.5 million and $4.0 million as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. Our investments in registered investment companies are valued using quoted prices in active markets multiplied by the number of shares owned and were included in "Other current assets" in our accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets.
We elected not to carry our long-term debt at fair value. The carrying value of the long-term debt represents amortized cost, inclusive of unamortized premium, and net of unamortized discount and debt issuance costs. We assess the fair value of these financial instruments based on an estimate of interest rates available to us for financial instruments with similar features, our current credit rating, and spreads applicable to us. The following table summarizes the carrying value and estimated fair value of these financial instruments as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively:
June 30, 2023 | December 31, 2022 | ||||||||||||||||

As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, we had securities without readily determinable market values of $200.9 million and $201.5 million, respectively, which were accounted for at cost. We do not have the ability to exercise significant influence over the investees’ operating income, net" withinand financial policies and do not hold investments in common stock or in-substance common stock in such entities. As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, we also had investments in private companies of $29.1 million and $28.3 million, respectively, accounted for in accordance with ASC 323-10-25,The Equity Method of Accounting for Investments in Common Stock ("ASC 323-10-25") as equity method investments. All such investments were included in "Other noncurrent assets" in our accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, there was no provision for credit losses related to these investments.
We have operating and finance leases for corporate offices, data centers, and certain equipment that are accounted for under ASC 842,Leases ("ASC 842").

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, we incurred transaction costs of $0.9 million and $1.9 million, respectively. The transaction costs were included within "Selling, general and administrative" expenses in our accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations. The 2023 acquisitions were immaterial to our condensed consolidated statement of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, and therefore, supplemental information disclosure on an unaudited pro forma basis is not presented.
Acquisition Escrows and Related Liabilities
Pursuant to the related acquisition agreements, we have funded various escrow accounts to satisfy pre-acquisition indemnity and tax claims arising subsequent to the applicable acquisition dates. AtJune 30, 2023and December 31, 2022, the current portion of the escrows amounted to $3.8 million and $0.0 million, respectively, there were no noncurrent portions of the escrows. The current portion of the escrows have been included in "Other current assets" in our accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets.
As of June 30, 2023, the acquisitions of Infutor Data Solutions, Krug, Mavera, and Morning Data Limited included acquisition-related contingent payments, for which the sellers of these acquisitions could receive additional payments by achieving the specific predetermined revenue, EBITDA, and/or EBITDA margin earn-out targets for exceptional performance. We believe that the liabilities recorded as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 reflect the best estimate of acquisition-related contingent payments. The associated current portion of contingent payments were $8.0 million and $29.9 million as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. The associated noncurrent portion of contingent payments were $2.1 million and $0.0 million as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.
7. Dispositions and Discontinued Operations:
On February 1, 2023, we completed the sale of our Energy business to Planet Jersey Buyer Ltd, an entity that was formed on behalf of, and is controlled by, The Veritas Capital Fund VIII, L.P. and its affiliated funds and entities (“Veritas Capital”), for a net cash sale price of $3,066.4 million paid at closing (reflecting a base purchase price of $3,100.0 million, subject to customary purchase price adjustments for, among other things, the cash, working capital, and indebtedness of the companies as of the closing) and up to $200.0 million of additional contingent cash consideration based on Veritas Capital’s future return on its investment paid through a Class C Partnership interest.
The Energy business, which was part of our Energy and Specialized Markets segment, was classified as discontinued operations per ASC 205-20as we determined, qualitatively and quantitatively, that this transaction represents a strategic shift that had a major effect on our operations and financial results. Accordingly, all results of the Energy business have been removed from continuing operations and presented as discontinued operations in our consolidated statements of operations for all periods presented. Additionally, all assets and liabilities of the Energy business were classified as assets and liabilities held for sale within our consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2022. In connection with the held for sale classification, we recognized an impairment of $303.7 million on the remeasurement of the disposal group held for sale, which has been included in discontinued operations in our consolidated statement of operations. Upon classification of the Energy business as held for sale, its cumulative foreign currency translation adjustment within shareholders’ equity was included with its carrying value, which primarily resulted in the impairment. On February 1, 2023, we closed on and completed the sale of our Energy business. As a result of the sale, we recognized a loss of $128.4 million. In the second quarter of 2023, we incurred an additional loss of $6.9 million as part of the true up of the closing adjustments.

Goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives are subject to impairment testing annually as of June 30, or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be fully recoverable. GoodwillWhen evaluating goodwill for impairment, testing compareswe may decide to first perform a qualitative assessment, or “Step Zero” impairment test, to determine whether it is more likely than not that impairment has occurred. The qualitative assessment includes a review of macroeconomic conditions, industry and market considerations, internal cost factors, and our own overall financial and share price performance, among other factors. If we do not perform a qualitative assessment, or if we determine that it is more likely than not that the carrying amounts of our reporting units exceeds their fair value, of each reporting unit to its fair value. Ifwe perform a quantitative assessment and calculate the estimated fair value of the respective reporting unit exceeds the carrying value of the net assets, including goodwill assigned to that reporting unit, goodwill is not impaired.unit. If the carrying valueamount of thea reporting unit’s net assets, including goodwill exceeds the fair value of the reporting unit, thenthat goodwill, an impairment loss is recorded for the difference between the carrying amount and the fair value of the reporting unit.recognized. As of June 30, 2022,2023, we completed the annualour Step Zero impairment review, in which goodwill impairment was testedtest at the reporting unit level. As partlevel and determined it was not more likely than not that the carrying values of our annual evaluation, wereporting units exceeded their fair values. We did not recognize any additional impairment charges related to our goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets. Although at the time of the annual impairment test, all of our reporting units had a fair value that exceeded their carrying value by greater than 20%,one of our reporting units had an excess that was only modestly higher. Therefore, any significant adverse change in our near or long-term financial projections, macroeconomic conditions, or other market indicators could result in a future material impairment charge for this reporting unit. During the three months ended September 30, 2022, we continued to monitor these reporting units for events that would trigger an interim impairment test; we did not identify any such events.
There were no impairments impairments to long lived assets for the three months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20222023 and 20212022.. Impairments to long-lived assets for the ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20222023 and 20212022 were $73.7$0.0 million and $0.0$73.7 million, respectively, and are included within "Other operating loss (income), net" in our condensed consolidated statements of operations. In the first quarter of 2022, we reassessed the recoverability of the long-lived assets for our Financial Services reporting unit and recorded a $73.7 million impairment.

The effective tax rate for the three months ended September June 30, 2022 2023was higher than the effective tax rate for the three months ended September June 30, 2021 2022primarily due to the impact of reduced stock option exercises resulting in lower tax benefits from equity compensation in the current period versus the prior period. The effective tax rate for the ninesix months ended September June 30, 2022 2023was lowerhigher than the effective tax rate for the ninesix months ended September June 30, 2021 2022primarily due to the deferred tax impact of the tax rate increase in the United Kingdom that was enacted and recorded in the prior period. The effective tax rate for thea nine2022 months ended September 30, 2022 was also lower than the prior period due to a tax rate benefit in connection with the sale of our environmental health and safety business for which a benefit was recognized for the difference between book and tax basis of our investment. In addition, the tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2023 was higher than the prior period due to tax charges incurred in structuring the Energy sale completed in the first quarter. The difference between statutory tax rates and our effective tax rate is primarily due to state and local taxes, partially offset by tax benefits attributable to equity compensation, offset by additional state and local taxes.compensation.

The computation of diluted EPS is similar to the computation of basic EPS except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding, using the treasury stock method, if the dilutive potential common shares, including vested and nonvested stock options, nonvested restricted stock awards, nonvested restricted stock units, nonvested performance awards consisting of performance share units ("PSU"), and nonvested deferred stock units, had been issued.
The following is a presentation of the numerators and denominators of the basic and diluted EPS computations for the three and ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20222023 and 20212022:

These components are also included in the computation of net periodic (benefit) cost (see Note 13. Pension and Postretirement Benefits for additional details). |
12. Equity Compensation Plans:
All of our outstanding stock options, restricted stock awards, deferred stock units, and PSUs are covered under our 2021 Incentive Plan, our 2013 Incentive Plan, or our 20092013 Incentive Plan. Awards under our 2021 Incentive Plan may include one or more of the following types: (i) stock options (both nonqualified and incentive stock options), (ii) stock appreciation rights, (iii) restricted stock, (iv) restricted stock units, (v) performance awards, (vi) other share-based awards, and (vii) cash. Employees, non-employee directors, and consultants are eligible for awards under our 2021 Incentive Plan. We transferred common stock under these plans from our treasury shares. As of SeptemberJune 30, 20222023, there were 13,897,49713,379,717 shares of common stock reserved and available for future issuance under our 2021 Incentive Plan. Cash received from stock option exercises for the ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20222023 and 20212022 was $111.6 $114.9million and $44.9$93.0 million, respectively.
We grant equity awards to our key employees. The nonqualified stock options have an exercise price equal to the adjusted closing price of our common stock on the grant date, with a ten-year contractual term. The fair value of the restricted stock is determined using the closing price of our common stock on the grant date. The restricted stock is not assignable or transferable until it becomes vested. PSUs vest at the end of a three-year performance period, subject to the recipient’s continued service. Each PSU represents the right to receive one share of our common stock and the ultimate realization is based on our achievement of certain market and financial performance criteria and may range from 0% to 200% of the recipient’s target levels of 100% established on the grant date. The fair value of PSUs is determined on the grant date using the Monte Carlo Simulation model. We recognize the expense of the equity awards ratably over the vesting period, which could be up to four years.
In January 2022,2023, we granted 205,034608,895 nonqualified stock options, 130,555177,619 shares of restricted stock, and 74,88748,486 PSUs to key employees. The nonqualified stock options and restricted stock have a graded service vesting period of four years. The PSUs granted consisted of 49,53329,783 PSUs that are based on the achievement of relative total shareholder return as compared to the companies that comprise the S&P 500 index ("TSR-based PSUs") and 25,35418,703 PSUs that are tied to the achievement of certain financial performance conditions, namely incremental return on invested capital (“ROIC-based PSUs”). Each of the TSR-based PSUs and ROIC-based PSUs have a three-year performance period, subject to the recipients' continued service. The grant date fair value of the ROIC-based PSUs is determined using the closing price of our common stock on the grant date. The related performance condition is driven by the incremental return on invested capital based on net operating profit. The ultimate realization of the PSUs may range from 0% to 200% of the recipient’s target levels established on the grant date.
A summary of the status of the stock options, restricted stock, and PSUs awarded under our 2021, 2013,and 20092013 Incentive Plans as of December 31, 20212022 and SeptemberJune 30, 20222023 and changes during the interim period are presented below:

The fair value of the stock options granted was estimated using a Black-Scholes valuation model that uses the weighted average assumptions noted in the following table for the ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20222023 and 20212022:
2022 | 2021 | 2023 | 2022 | |||||||||||||

Expected volatility | 25.33 | % | 23.66 | % | 27.36 | % | 25.29 | % | ||||||||
Risk-free interest rate | 1.55 | % | 0.39 | % | 3.74 | % | 1.47 | % | ||||||||
Expected term in years | 4.2 | 4.3 | 4.0 | 4.2 | ||||||||||||

Weighted average grant date fair value per stock option | $ | 42.25 | $ | 35.14 | $47.70 | $42.18 |
The expected term for the stock options granted was estimated based on studies of historical experience and projected exercise behavior. However, for certain awards granted, for which no historical exercise pattern exists, the expected term was estimated using the simplified method. The risk-free interest rate is based on the yield of U.S. Treasury zero coupon securities with a maturity equal to the expected term of the equity award. The volatility factor is calculated using historical daily closing prices over the most recent period that is commensurate with the expected term of the stock option awards. The expected dividend yield was based on our expected annual dividend rate on the date of grant.
Intrinsic value for stock options is calculated based on the exercise price of the underlying awards and the adjusted closing price of our common stock as of the reporting date. Excess tax benefits from exercised stock optionsstock-based compensation were recorded as income tax benefit in our condensed consolidated statements of operations. This tax benefit is calculated as the excess of the intrinsic value of options exercised and restricted stock lapsed in excess of compensation recognized for financial reporting purposes. The weighted average remaining contractual terms were 6.105.97 years and 5.105.14 years for the outstanding and exercisable stock options, respectively, as of SeptemberJune 30, 20222023.
For the ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20222023, there was $106.7$107.1 million of total unrecognized compensation costs, exclusive of the impact of vesting upon retirement eligibility, related to nonvested stock-based compensation arrangements granted under our 2021 and 2013 Incentive Plans. That cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 2.322.45 years.
Our U.K. Sharesave Plan offers qualifying employees in the United Kingdom the opportunity to own shares of our common stock. Employees who elect to participate are granted stock options, of which the exercise price is equal to the average of the closing price on the five trading days immediately preceding the plan invitation date discounted by 5%, and enter into a savings contract, the proceeds of which are then used to exercise the options upon the three-year maturity of the savings contract. During the ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20222023 and 20212022, we granted 9,370 and 11,254did not grant any stock options respectively, under our U.K. Sharesave Plan. As of SeptemberJune 30, 20222023, there were 454,145455,404 shares of common stock reserved and available for future issuance under our U.K. Sharesave Plan.
Our ESPP offers eligible employees the opportunity to purchase shares of our common stock at a discount of its fair market value at the time of purchase. During the ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20222023 and 20212022, we issued 23,64310,356 and 27,62115,776 shares of common stock at a weighted discounted price of $176.68$196.96 and $173.61$184.01 for the ESPP, respectively. As of SeptemberJune 30, 20222023, there were 1,202,6491,185,538 shares of common stock reserved and available for future issuance under our ESPP.
13. Pension and Postretirement Benefits:
We maintain a frozen qualified defined benefit pension plan for certain employees through membership in our Pension Plan for Insurance Organizations (the "Pension Plan"), a multiple-employer trust. We also apply a cash balance formula to determine future benefits. Under the cash balance formula, each participant has an account, which is credited annually based on the interest earned on the previous year-end cash balance. We also have a frozen non-qualified supplemental cash balance plan ("SERP") for certain employees. The SERP is funded from our general assets. During the first quarter of 2022,2023, we changed the investment guidelines on our Pension Plan assets to target an investment allocation of 40% to equity securities and 60% to debt securities from our previous target allocation of 45% to equity securities and 55% to debt securities from our previous target allocation of 50% to equity securities and 50% to debt securities as of December 31, 2021.2022. We also provide certain healthcare and life insurance benefits to certain qualifying active and retired employees. Our Postretirement Health and Life Insurance Plan (the "Postretirement Plan"), which has been frozen, is contributory, requiring participants to pay a stated percentage of the premium for coverage.

ASC 280-10, Disclosures About Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information ("(“ASC 280-10"10”), establishes standards for reporting information about operating segments. ASC 280-10 requires that a public business enterprise reports financial and descriptive information about its reportable operating segments. Operating segments are components of an enterprise for which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the Chief Operating Decision Maker ("CODM"chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. Our President and Chief Executive Officer ("CEO") is identified as the CODM as defined by ASC 280-10. Our operating segments, which are also our reportable segments, have historically been the following: Insurance, Energy and Specialized Markets, and Financial Services. On March 11, 2022, we sold our environmental health and safety business, which represented the “specialized markets” in our Energy and Specialized Markets segment. On April 8, 2022, the sale of our Financial Services segment was also completed. See Note 7. Dispositions for further discussion. For the remainder of 2022, we will continue to show only the historical results of these dispositions in their respective previous operating segments
Each of the reportable segments, Insurance, Energy and Specialized Markets, and Financial Services, has a portion of its revenue from more than one of the three revenue types described within our revenue recognition policy. Below is the overview of the solutions offered within each reportable segment.
Insurance: We are the leading provider of statistical, actuarial, and underwriting data for the U.S. P&C insurance industry. Our databases include cleansed and standardized records describing premiums and losses in insurance transactions, casualty and property risk attributes for commercial buildings and their occupants, and fire suppression capabilities of municipalities. We use this data to create policy language and proprietary risk classifications that are industry standards and to generate prospective loss cost estimates used to price insurance policies, which are accessed via a hosted platform. We also develop solutions that our customers use to analyze key processes in managing risk. Our combination of algorithms and analytic methods incorporateincorporates our proprietary data to generate solutions. We also help businesses and governments better anticipate and manage climate and weather-related risks. In most cases, our customers integrate the solutions into their models, formulas or underwriting criteria in order to predict potential loss events, ranging from hurricanes to earthquakes. We develop catastrophe and extreme event models and offer solutions covering natural and man-made risks, including acts of terrorism. We further develop solutions that allow customers to quantify costs after loss events occur. Our multitier, multispectral terrestrial imagery and data acquisition, processing, analytics, and distribution system using the remote sensing and machine learning technologies helpshelp gather, store, process, and deliver geographic and spatially referenced information that supports uses in many markets. Additionally, we offer fraud-detection solutions including review of data on claim histories, analysis of claims to find emerging patterns of fraud, and identification of suspicious claims in the insurance sector. Our underwriting, & rating, insurance anti-fraud claims, catastrophe modeling, and loss quantification and weather risk solutions are included in this segment.
Energy and Specialized Markets: This segment was comprised of our Energy business and Specialized Markets business. On March 11, 2022, we completed the sale of 3E Company Environmental, Ecological and Engineering, which made up the Specialized Markets within this segment. Subsequently, on October 28, 2022, we entered into an equity purchase agreement to sell our Energy business. We aredetermined that the sale of our Energy business met the “discontinued operations” criteria in accordance with ASC 205-20 in the fourth quarter of 2022 due to its relative size and strategic rationale. On February 1, 2023, we completed the sale of our Energy business, which made up the Energy with this "Energy and Specialized Markets" segment. Prior to the sale, we were a leading provider of data analytics via hosted platform for the global energy, chemicals, and metals and mining industries. Our research and consulting solutions focusfocused on exploration strategies and screening, asset development and acquisition, commodity markets, and corporate analysis in the areas of business environment, business improvement, business strategies, commercial advisory, and transaction support.

In addition, our bankruptcy management solutions assist creditors, debt servicing businesses, and credit services to enhance regulatory compliance by eliminating stay violation and portfolio valuation risk.
As of February 1,2023, we have determined that we have one operating segment and one reportable segment, Insurance, on a prospective basis. The three aforementioned operating segments represent the segments for which discretesegment is based on financial information that is available and upon which operating results are regularly evaluatedutilized by ourthe Company’s CODM, in orderwho is the Company’s CEO, to assess performance and allocate resources.resources on a consolidated basis. We have included the results of our disposed of segments below for comparability purposes. We use EBITDA as the profitability measure for making decisions regarding ongoing operations. EBITDA is net income before interest expense, provision for income taxes, and depreciation and amortization of fixed and intangible assets. EBITDA is the measure of operating results used to assess corporate performance and optimal utilization of debt and acquisitions. Operating expenses consist of direct and indirect costs principally related to personnel, facilities, software license fees, consulting, travel, and third-party information services. Indirect costs are generally allocated to the segments using fixed rates established by management based upon estimated expense contribution levels and other assumptions that management considers reasonable. We do not allocate interest expense and provision for income taxes, since these items are not considered in evaluating the segment’s overall operating performance. In addition, our CODM does not evaluate the financial performance of each segment based on assets. See Note 36.. Revenues for information on disaggregated revenues by type of service and by country.
The following tables provide our revenue and EBITDA by reportable segment for the three and ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20222023 and 20212022, and the reconciliation of EBITDA to income before income taxes as shown in our accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations:

Accordingly, all results of the Energy business have been removed from continuing operations and presented as discontinued operations in our consolidated statements of operations and assets and liabilities held for sale for all periods presented. See Note 7. Dispositions and Discontinued Operations for further discussion. For the remainder of 2022, we will continue to show only the historical results of these dispositions in their respective previous operating segments. Our Insurance segment provides underwriting and rating, and claims insurance data for the P&C insurance industry, primarily in the U.S. This segment's revenues represented approximately 80% and 73% of our revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and September 30, 2021, respectively. Our Energy and Specialized Markets segment provides research and consulting data analytics for the global energy, chemicals, and metals and mining industries. In the first quarter, we sold our environmental health and safety business.

Executive Summary
Key Performance Metrics
We believe our business's ability to grow recurring revenue and generate positive cash flow is the key indicator of the successful execution of our business strategy. We use year-over-year revenue and EBITDA growth as metrics to measure our performance. EBITDA and EBITDA margin are non-GAAP financial measures (See footnote 2 within the Condensed Consolidated Results of Operations section of Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations). The nearest equivalent respective GAAP financial measures are net income and net income margin.
Revenue growth. We use year-over-year revenue growth as a key performance metric. We assess revenue growth based on our ability to generate increased revenue through increased sales to existing customers, sales to new customers, sales of new or expanded solutions to existing and new customers, and strategic acquisitions of new businesses.
EBITDA growth. We use EBITDA growth as a measure of our ability to balance the size of revenue growth with cost management and investing for future growth. EBITDA growth allows for greater transparency regarding our operating performance and facilitate period-to-period comparison.
EBITDA margin. We use EBITDA margin as a metric to assess segment performance and scalability of our business. We assess EBITDA margin based on our ability to increase revenues while controlling expense growth. We calculate EBITDA margin as EBITDA divided by revenues.
Revenues
We earn revenues through agreements for hosted subscriptions, advisory/consulting services, and for transactional solutions, recurring and non-recurring. Subscriptions for our solutions are generally paid in advance of rendering services either quarterly or in full uponupon commencement of the subscription period, which is usually for one year and automatically renewed each year. As a result, the timing of our cash flows generally precedes our recognition of revenues and income and our cash flow from operations tends to be higher in the first quarter as we receive subscription payments. Examples of these arrangements include subscriptions that allow our customers to access our standardized coverage language, our claims fraud database, or our actuarial services throughout the subscription period. In general, we experience minimal revenue seasonality within the business.
Approximately 81% of the revenues in our Insurance segment for For the ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20222023 and 20212022, approximately 80% and 81% of our insurance revenues were derived from hosted subscriptions through agreements (generally one to five years) for our solutions. Our customers in this segment include most of the P&C insurance providers in the U.S. Approximately 82% and 83% of the revenues in our Energy and Specialized Markets segment for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, were derived from hosted subscriptions with long-term agreements for our solutions. Our customers in this segment include most of the top 10 global energy providers. Approximately 85% and 84% of the revenues in our Financial Services segment for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, were derived from subscriptions with long-term agreements for our solutions. Our customers in this segment included financial institutions, payment networks and processors, alternative lenders, regulators, merchants, and the top 30 credit card issuers in North America, the United Kingdom, and Australia.solutions, respectively.
We also provide advisory/consulting services, which help our customers get more value out of our analytics and their subscriptions. In addition, certain of our solutions are paid for by our customers on a transactional basis, recurring and non-recurring. For example, we have solutions that allow our customers to access property-specific rating and underwriting information to price a policy on a commercial building, or compare a P&C insurance or a workers' compensation claim with information in our databases, or use our repair cost estimation solutions on a case-by-case basis. For the ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20222023 and 20212022, approximately 20% and 19% of our consolidatedinsurance revenues were derived from providing transactional and advisory/consulting solutions.solutions, respectively.
Operating Costs and Expenses
Personnel expenses are the major component of both our cost of revenues and selling, general and administrative expenses. Personnel expenses, whichwhich represented approximately 58%61% and 60% of our total operating expenses (excluding the net gain on the sale of our environmental health and safety business and our Financial Services segment)gains/losses related to dispositions) for the ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20222023 and 20212022, respectively, include salaries, benefits, incentive compensation, equity compensation costs, sales commissions, employment taxes, recruiting costs, and outsourced temporary agency costs.
We assign personnel expenses between two categories, cost of revenues and selling, general and administrative expense, based on the actual costs associated with each employee. We categorize employees who maintain our solutions as cost of revenues, and all other personnel, including executive managers, salespeople, marketing, business development, finance, legal, human resources, and administrative services, as selling, general and administrative expenses. A significant portion of our other operating costs, such as facilities and communications, is also either captured within cost of revenues or selling, general and administrative expenses based on the nature of the work being performed.
While we expect to grow our headcount over time to take advantage of our market opportunities, we believe that the economies of scale in our operating model will allow us to grow our personnel expenses at a lower rate than revenues. Historically, our EBITDA margin has improved because we have been able to increase revenues without a proportionate corresponding increase in expenses. However, part of our corporate strategy is to invest in new solutions and new businesses, which may offset margin expansion.
Cost of Revenues. Our cost of revenues consists primarily of personnel expenses. Cost of revenues also includes the expenses associated with the acquisition, disposition and verification of data, the maintenance of our existing solutions, and the development and enhancement of our next-generation solutions. Our cost of revenues excludes depreciation and amortization.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Our selling, general and administrative expenses consist primarily of personnel costs. A portion of the other costs such as facilities, insurance, and communications are also allocated to selling, general and administrative expenses based on the nature of the work being performed by the employee. Our selling, general and administrative expenses exclude depreciation and amortization.

(2) | EBITDA is a financial measure that management uses to evaluate the performance of our segments. "EBITDA" is defined as net income before interest expense, provision for income taxes, and depreciation and amortization of fixed and intangible assets. See Note 14. of our condensed consolidated financial statements included in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q.
Although EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure, EBITDA is frequently used by securities analysts, lenders, and others in their evaluation of companies. EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool, and should not be considered in isolation, or as a substitute for an analysis of our operating income, net income, or cash flows from operating activities reported under GAAP. Management uses EBITDA in conjunction with GAAP operating performance measures as part of its overall assessment of company performance. Some of these limitations are: |
• | EBITDA does not reflect our cash expenditures, or future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments; |
• | EBITDA does not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs; |
• | Although depreciation and amortization are noncash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized often will have to be replaced in the future and EBITDA does not reflect any cash requirements for such replacements; and |
• | Other companies in our industry may calculate EBITDA differently than we do, limiting its usefulness as a comparative measure. |

Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of SeptemberJune 30, 20222023 and December 31, 2021,2022, we had cash and cash equivalents and available-for-sale securities of $280.6$311.2 million and $285.3$116.5 million, respectively. We maintain our cash and cash equivalents in higher credit quality financial institutions in order to limit the amount of credit exposure. As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, a vast majority of our domestic cash and cash equivalents is with TD Bank, N.A., JPMorgan Chase N.A., and HSBC Bank USA, N.A. Subscriptions for our solutions are billed and generally paid in advance of rendering services either quarterly or in full upon commencement of the subscription period, which is usually for one year. Subscriptions are automatically renewed at the beginning of each calendar year. We have historically generated significant cash flows from operations. As a result of this factor, as well as the availability of funds under our Credit Facility, we expect that we will have sufficient cash to meet our working capital and capital expenditure needs and to fuel our future growth plans.
We have historically managed the business with a working capital deficit due to the fact that, as described above, we offer our solutions and services primarily through annual subscriptions or long-term contracts, which are generally prepaid quarterly or annually in advance of the services being rendered. When cash is received for prepayment of invoices, we record an asset (cash and cash equivalents) on our balance sheet with the offset recorded as a current liability (deferred revenues). This current liability is deferred revenue that does not require a direct cash outflow since our customers have prepaid and are obligated to purchase the services. In most businesses, growth in revenue typically leads to an increase in the accounts receivable balance causing a use of cash as a company grows. Unlike these businesses, our cash position is favorably affected by revenue growth, which results in a source of cash due to our customers prepaying for most of our services.
We have also historically used a portion of our cash for repurchases of our common stock from our stockholders. During the ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20222023 and 20212022, we repurchased $1,196.3$2,500.0 million (inclusive of $500 million in treasury stock not yet settled) and $400.0$896.3 million, respectively, of our common stock.

Financing and Financing Capacity
We had total debt, excluding finance lease liabilities, unamortized discounts and premium, and debt issuance costs of $3,415.0$2,850.0 million and $3,310.0$3,740.0 million at SeptemberJune 30, 20222023 and December 31, 20212022, respectively, and we were in compliance with our financial and other debt covenants.
We have a $1,000.0 million Syndicated Revolving Credit Facility with a borrowing capacity of $1,000.0 million with Bank of America N.A., HSBC Bank USA, N.A., JP Morgan Chase Bank, N.A., Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, Citibank, N.A., Credit Suisse AG, Cayman Islands Branch, Morgan Stanley Bank, N.A., First Commercial Bank, Ltd., Los Angeles Branch, TD Bank, N.A., Goldman Sachs Bank USA, and the Northern Trust Company.

As of SeptemberJune 30, 20222023, we were in compliance with all financial and other debt covenants under the Credit Facility.

Subsequent to September 30, 2022, we have made repayments of $90.0 million and secured an additional $275.0 million in additional capacity on our Credit Facility. As a result of this activity, we now have the ability to draw up to $420.2 million from our Credit Facility.
On September 9, 2022,April 5, 2023, we extendedamended our committed senior unsecured Syndicated Revolving Credit Facility with Bank of America, N.A. The Amendment does not change the current borrowing capacity of $1,000.0 million, but does extend the maturity date to April 5, 2028. Borrowing under the Amendment is payable at an interest rate of SOFR plus 100.0 to 162.5 basis points, depending upon the public debt rating.
We also maintain a $125.0 million Bilateral Term Loan Agreement (the "Term Loan"Facility and a $275.0 million Bilateral Revolving Credit Facility together the ("Bilateral Credit Facilities") with Bank of America, N.A for 12 months with an agreed maturity datedates of September 9, 2023.2023 and October 2, 2023, respectively.

The new extended $125 million Term Loan and $275 million As of June 30, 2023, we had no outstanding borrowings under our Bilateral Credit Facility are now subject to the replacement of LIBOR. Interest on the Term Loan is based on BSBY and we have the choice of the Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR") or the BSBY as part of the additional Credit Facility agreement. As our only current contract that is subject to the LIBOR rate is the existing Credit Facility, the impact will be dependent on what the outstanding borrowing amount is on the Credit Facility and the relevant interest rate that will be contractually applicable. Should we amend or extend our existing Credit Facility to reflect SOFR or BSBY, based on recent borrowings and applicable SOFR, we do not anticipate such an amendment to have a material impact on the business.
