This adjustment resulted in a reduction to revenue and income (loss) before income taxes of $7 million and a corresponding decrease to accounts receivable of $1 million and an increase to other current liabilities of $6 million in the first quarter of 2023. The Company evaluated the impact of the out-of-period adjustment and concluded it was not material to any previously issued interim or annual consolidated financial statements and the adjustment is not expected to be material to the financial statement caption “Income (Loss) before Income Taxes ” as “pre-tax income (loss)”.

Note 2 – Recent Accounting Pronouncements

The Company's significant accounting policies are described in Note 1 – Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.
New Accounting Standards Adopted
The Company has not adopted any new accounting standards in 2023 that had a material impact on its Consolidated Financial Statements.
New Accounting Standards To Be Adopted

The Company has considered all recent accounting standards issued, but not yet effective, and does not expect any to have a material impact on its Consolidated Financial Statements.

Note 3 – Revenue Recognition: In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) updated the accounting guidance related to
Disaggregation of Revenue
The following table provides information about disaggregated revenue recognition to clarify the principles for recognizing revenue and replaces all existing revenue recognition guidance in U.S. GAAP with one accounting model. The core principle of the guidance is that an entity should recognize revenue when promised goods or services are transferred to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration that is expected to be received for those goods or services. The updated guidance also requires additional qualitative and quantitative disclosures relating to the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers largely on a disaggregated basis. We continue to evaluate the adoption impact of the updated accounting guidance on our financial statements, disclosures and internal controls. However, we do expect that the new guidance could impact (1)by major service offering, the timing of revenue recognition associated with certain contract modifications; (2) revenue associated with postage recognized onand a net basis versus the current gross treatment, (3) certain volume discounts, and (4) timingreconciliation of the amortization of contract acquisition costs. We will adopt this updated accounting guidance beginning January 1, 2018 usingdisaggregated revenue by reportable segment. Refer to Note 4 – Segment Reporting for additional information on the modified retrospective method under which we will recognize a cumulative-effect adjustment at the date of adoption supplemented with disclosures.Company's reportable segments.

Leases: In February 2016,The Company receives payments from customers based upon contractual billing schedules. Accounts receivable are recorded when the FASB updatedright to consideration becomes unconditional. Contract assets are the accounting guidance relatedCompany’s rights to leases requiring lesseesconsideration for services provided when the right is conditioned on something other than passage of time (for example, meeting a milestone for the right to recognize a right-of-use asset and a lease liability onbill under the balance sheet for all leases except short term leases (lease termcost-to-cost measure of 12 months or less)progress). Contract assets are transferred to Accounts receivable, net when the rights to consideration become unconditional.

Accounting Standards Implemented
Goodwill: In January 2017, the FASB issued updated accounting guidance for simplifying the goodwill impairment test. Under the new guidance an entity does not have to calculate the implied fair value of goodwill at the impairment testing date of its assets and liabilities as if those assets and liabilities had been acquired in a business combination. Instead the goodwill impairment test will compare the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount and recognize as an impairment charge any amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit's fair value, not to exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to the reporting unit. We have elected to early adopt this new guidance for our goodwill impairment tests performed after January 1, 2017. Adoption did not have any effect on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

Goodwill
Due to the first quarter 2017 change in segments, we were required to test Goodwill for impairment. As a result of the impairment test, the fair value of both the Commercial Industries and Public Sector reporting units exceeded their carrying values. To the extent the assumptions underlying the goodwill impairment test change, there could be additional impairments in the future.11

No interim goodwill impairment trigger was identified as there was no significant change in the assumptions underlying the impairment test, including profitability in each of the reporting units.

Unbilled amounts include amounts associated with percentage-of-completion accounting and other earned revenues not currently billable due to contractual provisions. Amounts to be invoiced in the subsequent months for current services provided are included in amounts billable, and at September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 were approximately $418 million and $429 million, respectively.

We perform ongoing credit evaluations of our customers and adjust credit limits based upon customer payment history and current creditworthiness. The allowance for uncollectible accounts receivables is determined principally on the basis of past collection experience, as well as consideration of current economic conditions and changes in our customer collection trends.

In the first quarter 2017 we settled a customer dispute over an aged accounts receivable balance for $19 million. We applied $5 million of the proceeds to net accounts receivable and a $14 million gain was recorded as follows:
$7 million to discontinued operations as a portion of the receivable was related to a business that was part of our Information Technology Outsourcing (ITO) discontinued operation; and
$7 million to continuing operations as the remainder of the receivable was related to our continuing Healthcare Provider business; the majority of the $7 million is reflected in legal settlements in Other (income) expense, net.

Note 89 – Fair Value of Financial Assets and Liabilities
Fair value represents the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. U.S. GAAP established a hierarchy framework to classify the fair value based on the observability of significant inputs to the measurement. The levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:
Level 1: Fair value is determined using an unadjusted quoted price in an active market for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2: Fair value is estimated using inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly.
Level 3: Fair value is estimated using unobservable inputs that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.
Summary of Financial Assets and Liabilities Accounted for at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis
The following table represents assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis. The basis for the measurement at fair value isin all cases was Level 1 for cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash and accounts receivable,net and Level 2 – Significant Other Observable Inputs for all other instruments.2.

Conduent Business Services, LLC v. Cognizant Business Services Corporation: On April 12, 2017, CBS filed a lawsuit against Cognizant Business Services Corporation (Cognizant) in the Supreme Court of New York County, New York. The lawsuit relates to the Amended and Restated Master Outsourcing Services Agreement effective as of October 24, 2012, and the service delivery contracts and work orders thereunder, between CBS and Cognizant, as amended and supplemented (Contract). The Contract contains certain minimum purchase obligations by CBS through the date of expiration. The lawsuit alleges that Cognizant committed multiple breaches of the Contract, including Cognizant’s failure to properly perform its obligations as subcontractor to CBS under CBS’s contract with the New York Department of Health to provide Medicaid Management Information Systems. In the lawsuit, CBS seeks damages in excess of $150 million. During the first quarter of 2018, CBS provided notice to Cognizant that it was terminating the Contract for cause and recorded in the same period certain charges associated with the termination. CBS also alleges that it terminated the Contract for cause, because, among other things, Cognizant violated the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act. In its answer, Cognizant asserted two counterclaims for breach of contract seeking recovery of damages in excess of $47 million, which includes amounts alleged not paid to Cognizant under the Contract and an alleged $25 million termination fee. Cognizant's second amended counterclaim increased Cognizant's damages to $89 million. The parties participated in a mediation in late February 2023, and this matter settled, following negotiations that continued thereafter. The parties executed the Settlement Agreement and Mutual Release on March 30, 2023, with no admission of liability or wrongdoing by either party. In April 2023, each side made reciprocal payments of $6 million to the other, with Conduent’s payment made toward the termination fee payable under the applicable service delivery contract. As a result of the settlement, during the first quarter of 2023, the Company adjusted the balance sheet amounts recorded pertaining to this matter. As such, the Company recognized a $17 million benefit in Cost of services (excluding depreciation and amortization) and a $26 million benefit in Litigation settlements (recoveries), net.
Other Matters
On January 5, 2016,During the first quarter of 2022, the Company entered into settlement agreements with six of its insurers under its 2012–2013 errors and omission insurance policy in which the Company agreed to resolve its claims for insurance coverage in connection with the previously disclosed State of Texas matter that settled in February 2019, as included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020. As a result of the settlement agreements entered with the insurers, in the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company received an aggregate sum of $38 million, of which $14 million was recognized as defense costs recovery in Selling, general and administrative and $24 million was recognized in Litigation settlements (recoveries), net.
Since 2014, Conduent Education Services, LLC, formerly Xerox Education Services LLC (CES), has cooperated with several federal and state agencies regarding a variety of matters, including CES' self-disclosure to the U.S. Department of Education (Department) and the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (the "CFPB") notified Xerox Education Services, Inc. (XES)(CFPB) that in accordance with the CFPB’s discretionary Notice and Opportunity to Respond and Advise (NORA) process, the CFPB’s Office of Enforcement is considering recommending that the CFPB take legal action against XES, alleging that XES violated the Consumer Financial Protection Act’s prohibition of unfair practices. Should the CFPB commence an action, it may seek restitution, civil monetary penalties, injunctive relief, or other corrective action. The purpose of a NORA letter is to provide a party being investigated an opportunity to present its position to the CFPB before an enforcement action is recommended or commenced. This notice stems from an inquiry that commenced in 2014 when XES received and responded to a Civil Investigative Demand containing a broad request for information. During this process, XES self-disclosed to the Department of Education and the CFPB certain adjustments of which it had become aware that had not been timely made relating to its servicing of a small percentage ofsome third-party student loans under outsourcing arrangements for various financial institutions. Theinstitutions required adjustments. With the exception of one remaining state attorney general inquiry, the Company has resolved all investigations by the CFPB, several state agencies, the Department and the U.S. Department of Education, as well as certain states' attorney general offices and other regulatory agencies, began similar reviews. XES has cooperated and continues to fully cooperate with all regulatory agencies, and XES has submitted its NORA response. WeJustice. The Company cannot provide assurance that the CFPB, another regulator, a financial institution on behalf of which CES serviced third-party student loans, or another party will not ultimately commence a legal action against XESCES in this matter norwhich fines, penalties or other liabilities are wesought from CES. Nor is the Company able to predict the likely outcome of the investigations into this matter. Wethese matters, should any such matter be commenced, or reasonably provide an estimate or range of estimates of any loss in excess of currently recorded reserves. The Company could, in future periods, incur judgments or enter into settlements to resolve these potential matters for amounts in connection with this matterexcess of current reserves and there could be a material adverse effect on ourthe Company's results of operations, cash flows and financial position in the period in which such change in judgment or settlement occurs.
Other Contingencies

Certain contracts, primarily in our Public Sector segment,the Company's Government and Transportation segments, require usthe Company to provide a surety bond or a letter of credit as a guarantee of performance. As of September 30, 2017, weMarch 31, 2023, the Company had $570$631 million of outstanding surety bonds usedissued to secure ourits performance of contractual obligations with ourits clients and we had $238$91 million of outstanding letters of credit and bank guarantees usedissued to secure ourthe Company's performance of contractual obligations to ourits clients as well as other corporate obligations.
In general, wethe Company would only be liable for the amount of these guarantees in the event of default in ourthe Company's performance of ourits obligations under each contract; the probability of which we believe is remote. We believe we havecontract. The Company believes it has sufficient capacity in the surety markets and liquidity from ourits cash flow and ourits various credit arrangements including those with our former parent, to allow usit to respond to future requests for proposals that require such credit support.

CNDT Q1 2023 Form 10-Q

We have service arrangements where we service third-party student loans in the Federal Family Education Loan program (FFEL) on behalf of various financial institutions. We service these loans for investors under outsourcing arrangements and do not acquire any servicing rights that are transferable by us to a third-party. At September 30, 2017, we serviced a FFEL portfolio of approximately 0.8 million loans with an outstanding principal balance of approximately $12.8 billion. Some servicing agreements contain provisions that, under certain circumstances, require us to purchase the loans from the investor if the loan guaranty has been permanently terminated as a result of a loan default caused by our servicing error. If defaults caused by us are cured during an initial period, any obligation we may have to purchase these loans expires. Loans that we purchase may be subsequently cured, the guaranty reinstated and the loans repackaged for sale to third parties. We evaluate our exposure under our purchase obligations on defaulted loans and establish a reserve for potential losses, or default liability reserve, through a charge to the provision for loss on defaulted loans purchased. The reserve is evaluated periodically and adjusted based upon management’s analysis of the historical performance of the defaulted loans. As of September 30, 2017, other current liabilities include reserves of approximately $1 million for losses on defaulted loans purchased which we believe to be adequate. In addition to potential purchase obligations arising from servicing errors, various laws and regulations applicable to student loan borrowers could give rise to fines, penalties and other liabilities associated with loan servicing errors.

Currency Impact
To understand the trendsHeadquartered in our business,Florham Park, New Jersey, we believe that it is helpful to analyze the impact of changes in the translation of foreign currencies into U.S. Dollars on revenue and expenses. We refer to this analysis as “currency impact” or “the impact from currency” or "constant currency" and is calculated by translating current period activity in local currency using the comparable prior year period's currency translation rate.

Revenue
Total revenuesfor the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2017 declined across all segments due primarily to lost business, the wind-down of the New York Medicaid Management Information System (NY MMIS) contract, the run-off of our Student Loan business, strategic contract actions taken by management as part of our portfolio rationalization, lower volumes and overall price declines that were consistent with prior-period trends. Partially offsetting the decline was the ramp up in new contracts in the Commercial Industries and Public Sector businesses.

Conduent Form 10-Q

Cost of Services
Cost of services for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 decreased compared to the prior year periods due primarily to lost business, the wind-down of the NY MMIS contract, the run-off of our Student Loan business, strategic contract actions taken by management as part of portfolio management and lower volumes.

Gross Margin
Declines in gross margin for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 compared to the prior year periods reflect lost business and margin pressures in our customer experience service offerings, price declines and tohave a lesser degree the impact of the hurricanes.
Research and Development
Research and development for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, decreased compared to the prior year periods due to cost savings initiatives.
Selling, General and Administrative (SG&A)
SG&A for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 was lower than the prior year periods reflecting the impact of our strategic transformation initiatives that drove lower wages and benefits.
Restructuring and Related Costs
Net restructuring and related costs for the three months ended September 30, 2017 includes approximately $7 million of severance costs due to headcount reductionsteam of approximately 700 employees worldwide, $17 million of lease cancellation costs and $2 million of asset impairments. These costs were offset by $4 million of net reversals primarily resulting from changes in estimated reserves from prior-period initiatives.
Net restructuring and related costs for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 includes strategic transformation costs of $8 million and approximately $38 million of severance costs related to headcount reductions of approximately 3,200 employees worldwide, $33 million of lease cancellation costs and $4 million of asset impairments. These costs were offset by $7 million of net reversals, primarily resulting from changes in estimated reserves from prior-period initiatives.
Net restructuring and related costs for the three months ended September 30, 2016 relates to the strategic transformation program. Severance costs of $4 million related to headcount reductions and were offset by $4 million of net reversals for changes in estimated reserves from prior-period initiatives.
Net restructuring and related costs for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 includes approximately $52 million of severance costs related to headcount reductions of approximately 3,300 employees worldwide, $12 million of professional support services associated with the implementation of our strategic transformation program, $2 million of lease cancellation costs and $2 million of asset impairments. These costs were partially offset by $11 million of net reversals for changes in estimated reserves from prior-period initiatives.
The restructuring reserve balance59,000 associates as of September 30, 2017, for all programs was $40 million, of which approximately $28 million is expected to be spent over the next twelve months.
Refer to Note 5 - Restructuring Programs and Related Costs,March 31, 2023, servicing customers from service centers in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information regarding our restructuring programs.
Amortization of Intangible Assets
Amortization of intangible assets for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 decreased compared to the prior year periods as the nine months ended September 30, 2016 included the accelerated amortization related to the loss of a large customer contract.
Interest Expense
Interest expense represents interest on long-term debt and the amortization of debt issuance costs. Interest expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 increased compared to the prior year periods primarily due to the issuance of debt in connection with the capitalization of the company during the spin-off in December 2016, the subsequent additional borrowing under the Term Loan B in January 2017 and amounts outstanding under the Company’s $750 million committed credit facility (Credit Facility).

Refer to Note 6 - Debt, in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.
Separation Costs
Separation costs are primarily for third-party investment banking, accounting, legal, consulting and other similar types of services related to the separation transaction as well as costs associated with the operational separation from Xerox Corporation, such as those related to human resources, brand management, real estate and information management to the extent not capitalized. Separation costs also include the costs associated with bonuses and restricted stock grants awarded to employees for retention related to separation.
Gain on Sale of Asset and Businesses
We sold a property in June 2017 for a pre-tax gain of $24 million.

Additionally, we completed the divestiture of: (1) our Firehouse business and suite of emergency records management products used by fire departments across the country for their incident reporting and Emergency Management System information and records management; (2) our healthcare provider consulting services business, which advises healthcare organizations on IT application optimization; (3) the Breakaway Group business, which provides advisory project services to assist healthcare organizations optimize their health IT applications; (4) the mobile device management business of Wireless Data Services Limited; and (5) the Global Mobility business. The aggregate proceeds for these divestitures was $56 million in cash. The businesses sold represents $82 million of 2016 revenue and $60 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017. We recorded a pre-tax gain of $16 million on these divestitures.
Other (Income) Expenses, Net
Other (income) expenses, net primarily includes foreign currency transaction (gains) losses, litigation and other contingent matters and deferred compensation investment results.

The increase in Other income for the three months ended September 30, 2017 is primarily related to an adjustment to contingent consideration on a previous acquisition. The increase in Other income for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 is primarily related to income received as a result of several customer dispute settlements and an adjustment to contingent consideration on a previous acquisition.
Pre-tax Income (Loss)
Improvement in Pre-tax income (loss) for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 as compared to the prior year periods was primarily driven by improvements in our Commercial and Other segments, benefits from our strategic transformation program, gain on sale of asset and businesses and lower separation costs, partially offset by higher interest expense, higher restructuring and related costs and dis-synergies.
Income Taxes
The effective tax rate for the three months ended September 30, 2017, was 230.8% as compared with 50.0% for the three months ended September 30, 2016. The September 30, 2017 rate is higher than the U.S. statutory tax rate of 35% primarily due to a taxable gain on the termination of the Company Owned Life Insurance plan (COLI) and gains on U.S. divestitures.

Excluding primarily the tax on the termination of the COLI, gains on U.S. divestitures and amortization, the normalized effective tax rate for the three months ended September 30, 2017 was 36.8%. Primarily excluding the amortization and restructuring costs, the normalized effective rate was 39.5% for the three months ended September 30, 2016.

The effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, was (55.0)% as compared with 62.8% for the nine months ended September 30, 2016. The September 30, 2017 negative rate is lower than the U.S. statutory tax rate of 35% due to pre-tax loss and tax from taxable gain on the termination of the COLI and gains on U.S. divestitures. The September 30, 2016 effective tax rate was higher than the U.S. statutory tax rate due primarily to U.S. pre-tax losses that are taxed at a higher rate than foreign pre-tax income, which has the effect of increasing the overall effective tax rate.

Conduent Form 10-Q

Excluding primarily the tax on the termination of the COLI, gain on U.S. divestitures and amortization, the normalized effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 was 35.0%. Primarily excluding the amortization and restructuring costs, the normalized effective rate was 23.6% for the nine months ended September 30, 2016.
Worldwide Employment
Worldwide employment was approximately 90,000 as of September 30, 2017 and decreased by 6,000 from December 31, 2016, due primarily to the impact of restructuring and productivity reductions as well as seasonal reductions and divestitures.

Executive Summary
During the first quarter of 2023, we held an effortinvestor briefing to better reflect howcommunicate the next chapter in the Conduent journey. Our intense emphasis on growth, quality, and efficiency, beginning in the first quarter of 2020 resulted in a strengthened foundation and we manageremain focused on accelerating growth and enhancing value for our stakeholders. We intend to achieve this by doubling down on key themes outlined in the briefing, as well as through a process of portfolio rationalization, divesting certain solutions which have either scarcity value outside of Conduent or are capital intensive relative to their growth opportunity, enabling management bandwidth and capital investments to be focused on solutions where we believe we have competitive advantages or higher growth expectations.
This renewed portfolio focus will result in a more nimble and faster growing Conduent with modest levels of net leverage, enhanced valuation, and significant excess capital to be deployed over time.

CNDT Q1 2023 Form 10-Q
22

Cost of Services (excluding depreciation and amortization)
Cost of services for the three months ended March 31, 2023 decreased, compared to the prior year periods, primarily driven by the impact of reduced revenue and a $17 million reversal of liabilities due to the settlement of the Cognizant matter described in Note 12 – Contingencies and Litigation to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
Selling, General and Administrative (SG&A) (excluding depreciation and amortization)
SG&A for the three months ended March 31, 2023 increased, compared to the prior year period, driven by the absence of the recovery of $14 million of defense costs as part of the settlement with insurance carriers relating to the previously disclosed State of Texas matter that occurred in 2022.
Depreciation and Amortization
Depreciation and amortization for the three months ended March 31, 2023 was unchanged from the prior year. This reflects new depreciation from recent capital expenditures being offset by run-off of depreciation on older assets.
Restructuring and Related Costs
We engage in a series of restructuring programs related to optimizing our employee base, reducing our real estate footprint, exiting certain activities, outsourcing certain internal functions, consolidating our data centers and engaging in other actions designed to reduce our cost structure and improve productivity. In addition, during the three months ended March 31, 2023, the Company also incurred $4 million of professional support costs associated with bringing certain technology functions in-house. The following are the components of our Restructuring and related costs:

Interest Expense
Interest expense represents interest on long-term debt and the amortization of debt issuance costs. The increase in Interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2023, compared to the prior year periods, was driven by higher interest rates on our credit facilities, partially offset by a lower total outstanding debt balance.
(Gain) Loss on Divestitures and Transaction Costs
The divestiture of the Midas business in the first quarter of 2022 resulted in a gain of $166 million ($165 million in the first quarter of 2022 and $1 million in the second quarter of 2022). Additionally, professional fees and other costs related to certain consummated and non-consummated transactions considered by the Company are included in this financial statement line item for both years.

Income Taxes
The effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2023 was 20.8%, compared to 35.2% for the three months ended March 31, 2022. The March 31, 2023 rate approximates the U.S. statutory rate of 21%.
The effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2022 was higher than the U.S. statutory rate of 21%, primarily due to the geographic mix of income, state and local taxes and permanently non-deductible amounts related to the divestiture transaction, partially offset by the tax benefit of valuation allowances released due to the gain from divestiture and tax credits.
Excluding the impact of restructuring costs, litigation reserve releases, valuation allowance and certain discrete tax items, the normalized effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2023 was 35.0%. The normalized effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2022 was 29.6%, predominantly due to excluding the impact of the Midas divestiture, the litigation insurance recoveries, amortization of intangible assets, restructuring costs and certain discrete tax items. The normalized effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2023 was higher than the three months ended March 31, 2022 due to the geographic mix of income.

Unallocated Costs
Health Enterprise

In February 2017, we determined that it was not probable that the NY MMIS project would be completed. As a result of this determination, we recorded a pre-tax charge of $161 million ($98 million after-tax) in the fourth quarter 2016 financial results. The charge included $83 millionUnallocated Costs for the write-off of contract receivables which were recorded as a reduction of revenue and $78 million recorded in costs of outsourcing, including $36 million for wind down costs, a $28 million non-cash charge for the impairment of software and $14 million for the write-off of deferred contract set-up and transition costs and other related assets and liabilities.

Signings
Signings are defined as estimated future revenues from contracts signed during the period, including renewals of existing contracts. Total Contract Value (TCV)TCV is the estimated total contractual revenue related to signed contracts. TCV signings is defined as estimated future revenues from contracts signed during the period, including renewals of existing contracts. Due to the inconsistency of when existing contracts end, quarterly and yearly comparisons are not a good measure of renewal performance. New business ACV is calculated as TCV divided by the contract term, in months, multiplied by 12 for an annual measure.


For the three months ended March 31, 2023, the Company signed $125 million of new business ACV.

On October 10, 2017, weWe have entered into Amendment No. 2a factoring agreement in the normal course of business as part of our cash and liquidity management, to sell certain accounts receivable without recourse to a third-party financial institution. The transactions under this agreement are treated as a sale and are accounted for as a reduction in accounts receivable because the agreement transfers effective control over, and risk related to, the receivables to the buyer. Cash proceeds from this arrangement are included in cash flow from operating activities in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

Market Risk Management


Recent Accounting Changes
See Note 2 – Recent Accounting Pronouncements for information on accounting standards adopted during the current year, as well as recently issued accounting standards not yet required to be adopted and the expected impact of the adoption of these accounting standards.

ITEM 3 — QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
We are exposed to market risk from changes in foreign currency exchange rates which could affect operating results, financial position and cash flows. We manage our exposure to these market risks through our regular operating and financing activities and, when appropriate, through the use of derivative financial instruments. TheseWe may utilize derivative financial instruments are utilized to hedge economic exposures, as well as to reduce earnings and cash flow volatility resulting from shifts in market rates.

We also may hedge the cost to fund material non-dollar entities by buying currencies periodically in advance of the funding date. This is accounted for using derivative accounting.
Recent market and economic events have not caused us to materially modify nor change our financial risk management strategies with respect to our exposures to foreign currency risk. Refer to Note 78 – Financial Instruments in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional discussion on our financial risk management.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
WeDuring the reporting period, there have reportedbeen no material changes to the quantitative and qualitative disclosures regarding our financial results in accordance with U.S. GAAP. In addition, we have discussed our results using certain non-GAAP measures.

We believe these non-GAAP measures allow investors to better understand the trendsmarket risk set forth in our business and to better understand and compare our results. Accordingly, we believe it is necessary to adjust several reported amounts, determined in accordance with GAAP, to exclude the effects of certain items as well as their related tax effects. Management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide an additional means of analyzing the current periods’ results against the corresponding prior periods’ results. However, these non-GAAP financial measures should be viewed in addition to, and not as a substitute for, the Company’s reported results prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Our non-GAAP financial measures are not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for comparable U.S. GAAP measures and should be read only in conjunction with our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Our management regularly uses our supplemental non-GAAP financial measures internally to understand, manage and evaluate our business and make operating decisions, and providing such non-GAAP financial measures to investors allows for a further level of transparency as to how management reviews and evaluates our business results and trends. These non-GAAP measures are among the factors management uses in planning for and forecasting future periods. Compensation of our executives is based in part on the performance of our business based on these non-GAAP measures.
A reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP are provided below.

These reconciliations also include the income tax effects for our non-GAAP performance measures in total, to the extent applicable. The income tax effects are calculated under the same accounting principles as applied to our reported pre-tax performance measures under ASC 740, which employs an annual effective tax rate method. The noted income tax effect for our non-GAAP performance measures is effectively the difference in income taxes for reported and adjusted pre-tax income calculated under the annual effective tax rate method. The tax effect of the

Conduent Form 10-Q

non-GAAP adjustments was calculated based upon evaluation of the statutory tax treatment and the applicable statutory tax rate in the jurisdictions in which such charges were incurred.

Constant Currency

To better understand trends in our business, we believe that it is helpful to adjust revenue to exclude the impact of changes in the translation of foreign currencies into U.S. Dollars. We refer to this adjusted revenue as “constant currency.” Currency impact is the difference between actual growth rates and constant currency growth rates.

Adjusted Operating Income and Adjusted Operating Margin
We make adjustments to Pre-Tax Income (Loss) for the following items for the purpose of calculating Adjusted Operating Income and Adjusted Operating Margin.
Amortization of intangible assets. The amortization of intangible assets is driven by acquisition activity, which can vary in size, nature and timing as compared to other companies within our industry from period to period.
Restructuring and related costs. Restructuring and related costs include restructuring and asset impairment charges as well as costs associated with our strategic transformation program.
Separation costs. Separation costs are expenses incurred in connection with the separation from Xerox Corporation into a separate, independent, publicly traded company. These costs primarily relate to third-party investment banking, accounting, legal, consulting and other similar types of services related to the separation transaction as well as costs associated with the operational separation of the two companies.
Interest expense. Interest expense includes interest on long-term debt and amortization of debt issuance costs and related party interest.
Other (income) expenses net. Other (income) expenses, net includes currency (gains) losses, net, litigation matters and all other (income) expenses, net.
NY MMIS (2017 only). Costs associated with the company not fully completing the State of New York Health Enterprise Platform project.
HE charge (2017 only). Costs associated with not fully completing the Health Enterprise Medical Platform implementation projects in California and Montana.
(Gain) loss on sale of asset and businesses.

We provide our investors with adjusted operating income and adjusted operating margin information, as supplemental information, because we believe it offers added insight, by itself and for comparability between periods, by adjusting for certain non-cash items as well as certain other identified items which we do not believe are indicative of our ongoing business, and may also provide added insight on trends in our ongoing business.
Adjusted Net Income (Loss), Adjusted Earnings per Share and Adjusted Effective Tax Rate
We make adjustments to Income (Loss) before Income Taxes for the following items for the purpose of calculating Adjusted Net Income (Loss), Adjusted Earnings per Share and Adjusted Effective Tax Rate:
Amortization of intangible assets.
Restructuring and related costs.
Separation costs.
Other (income) expenses, net.
NY MMIS (2017 only).
HE charge (2017 only).
(Gain) loss on sale of asset and businesses.

The Company provides adjusted net income and adjusted EPS financial measures to assist our investors in evaluating our ongoing operating performance for the current reporting period and, where provided, over different reporting periods, by adjusting for certain items which may be recurring or non-recurring and which in our view do not necessarily reflect ongoing performance.  We also internally use these measures to assess our operating performance, both absolutely and in comparison to other companies, and in evaluating or making selected compensation decisions.

Management believes that adjusted effective tax rate, provided as supplemental information, facilitates a comparison by investors of our actual effective tax rate with an adjusted effective tax rate which reflects the impact of the items which are excluded in providing adjusted net income, and may provide added insight into our underlying business results and how effective tax rates impact our ongoing business.
