Basis of Presentation

The unaudited interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP) on a basis consistent with reporting interim financial information in accordance with instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).SEC. The year-end Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet was derived from the audited Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.2019. Certain reclassifications have been made to prior year information to conform to current year presentation. Intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for a fair statement of the financial position, results of operations and cash flows have been made. These adjustments consist of normal recurring items. The interim results of operations are not necessarily indicative of the results of the full year. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.2019.

Use of Estimates

Preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported and disclosed in the financial statements and the accompanying notes. Actual results could differ materially from these estimates. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates, including those related to fair values of financial instruments, goodwill and intangible assets, income taxes and contingent liabilities, among others. We base our estimates on assumptions, both historical and forward looking, that are believed to be reasonable, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities.

As of March 31, 2020, the impact of the outbreak of COVID-19 pandemic continues to unfold. As a result, many of our estimates and assumptions required increased judgment and carry a higher degree of variability and volatility. As events continue to evolve and additional information becomes available, our estimates may change materially in the future.

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 2018 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Summarized below are the accounting pronouncements adopted subsequent to December 31, 2018 that were applicable and material to the Company.

New Accounting Standards Adopted

Leases: The Company adopted the updated lease guidance as of January 1, 2019, using the cumulative-effect adjustment transition method, which applies the provisions of the standard at the effective date without adjusting the comparative periods presented. The Company has elected the package of practical expedients, which allows the Company not to reassess (1) whether any expired or existing contracts as of the adoption date are, or contain, leases, (2) lease classification for any expired or existing leases as of the adoption date and (3) initial direct costs for any existing leases as of the adoption date. The Company did not elect to apply the hindsight practical expedient. Additionally, the Company has elected not to include short-term leases, with a term of 12 months or less, on its Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.


CNDT Q1 2019 Form 10-Q

The impact of adopting this new guidance resulted in an increase to Operating lease right-of-use (ROU) assets of $387 million, an increase to Other current liabilities of $103 million, a decrease to Other long-term liabilities of $21 million, an increase to Operating lease liabilities of $316 million and a net decrease to opening retained earnings (deficit) of $8 million as of January 1, 2019. The adoption did not have an impact on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income (Loss) or Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

Summary of Accounting Policies

Leases
The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at the inception of the contract and whether that lease meets the classification criteria of a finance or operating lease. The Company has operating and finance leases for real estate and equipment. Operating leases are included in Operating lease ROU assets, Other current liabilities, and Operating lease liabilities in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Finance leases are included in Land, buildings and equipment, net, Current portion of long-term debt, and Long-term debt in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

ROU assets represent the Company's right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent the Company's obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at the commencement date based on the net present value of lease payments over the lease term using the Company’s incremental borrowing rates or implicit rates. The Company's lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise that option based on economic factors. The Company recognizes operating fixed lease expense and finance lease depreciation on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Variable lease expense is recognized in the period in which the obligation for those payments is incurred. The Company accounts for lease and non-lease components separately for its equipment leases, based on the estimated standalone price of each component, and combines lease and non-lease components for its real estate leases.

The components of lease costs were as follows:

The Company's leases generally do not provide an implicit rate, and therefore the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate as the discount rate when measuring operating lease liabilities. The incremental borrowing rate represents an estimate of the interest rate the Company would incur at lease commencement to borrow an amount equal to the lease payments on a collateralized basis over the term of a lease within a particular currency environment. The weighted average discount rates for operating and finance leases were 5.2% and 4.8%, respectively.

The weighted average remaining lease terms for operating and finance leases at March 31, 2019, were 5 years and 3 years, respectively.

New Accounting Standards To Be Adopted

Credit Losses: In June 2016, the FASBFinancial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) updated the accounting guidance related to measurement of credit losses on financial instruments, which requires financial assets measured at amortized cost to be presented at the net amount expected to be collected. The guidance replaces the incurred loss model with an expected loss model referred to as current expected credit loss (CECL). The CECL model requires us to measure lifetime expected credit losses for financial instruments held at the reporting date using historical experience, current conditions and reasonable supportable forecasts. The guidance expands the disclosure requirements regarding an entity’s assumptions, models, and methods for estimating credit losses and requires new disclosures of the amortized cost balance for each class of financial asset by credit quality indicator, disaggregated by the year of origination. This updated guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company adopted the new credit loss guidance as of January 1, 2020. The adoption did not have any material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

New Accounting Standards To Be Adopted

Income Taxes:In December 2019, the FASB issued an updated accounting guidance to simplify the accounting for income taxes. The guidance eliminates certain exceptions related to the approach for intraperiod tax allocation, the methodology for calculating income taxes in an interim period, and the recognition of deferred tax liabilities for outside basis differences. The guidance also simplifies aspects of accounting for franchise taxes and enacted changes in tax laws or rates and clarifies the accounting for transactions that result in a step-up in the tax basis of goodwill. This updated guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning January 1, 2021. Early adoption is permitted. We areThe Company is currently evaluating the impact of the new guidance on the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements.its consolidated financial statements.

Reference Rate Reform: In March 2020, the FASB issued an updated guidance relating to the accounting for the discontinuation of the London Inter-bank Offered Rate (LIBOR), referred to as the reference rate reform. This guidance provides practical expedients and exceptions for applying U.S. GAAP to contracts, hedging relationships and other transactions affected by the reference rate reform if certain criteria are met. This guidance is applicable to contract modifications that replace a reference LIBOR rate affected by reference rate reform. The amendments may be applied through December 31, 2022. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the new guidance on its consolidated financial statements.

Contract Balances

The Company receives payments from customers based upon contractual billing schedules. Accounts receivable are recorded when the right to consideration becomes unconditional. Contract assets are the Company’s rights to consideration for services provided when the right is conditioned on something other than passage of time (for example, meeting a milestone for the right to bill under the cost-to-cost measure of progress). Contract assets are transferred to Accounts receivable, net when the rights to consideration become unconditional. Unearned income includes payments received in advance of performance under the contract, which are realized when the associated revenue is recognized under the contract.

Note 75 – Restructuring Programs and Related Costs

The Company engages in a series of restructuring programs related to downsizing its employee base, exiting certain activities, outsourcing certain internal functions and engaging in other actions designed to reduce its cost structure and improve productivity. The implementation of the Company's strategic transformation program and various productivity initiatives have reduced the Company's real estate footprint across all geographies and segments resulting in increased lease cancellation and other related costs. Also included in Restructuring and Related Costsrelated costs in the table below are incremental, non-recurring costs related to the consolidation of the Company's data centers, which totaled $2 million and $9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019.2020 and 2019, respectively. Management continues to evaluate the Company's business, and in the future, there may be additional provisions for new plan initiatives and/or changes in previously recorded estimates as payments are made, or actions are completed.

Costs associated with restructuring, including employee severance and lease termination costs, are generally recognized when it has been determined that a liability has been incurred, which is generally upon communication to the affected employees or exit from the leased facility. In those geographies where we have either a formal severance plan or a history of consistently providing severance benefits representing a substantive plan, we recognize employee severance costs when they are both probable and reasonably estimable.

Note 97 – Financial Instruments

The Company is a global company that is exposed to foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations in the normal course of its business. As a part of the Company's foreign exchange risk management strategy, the Company uses derivative instruments, primarily forward contracts, to hedge the funding of foreign entities which have a non-dollar functional currency, thereby reducing volatility of earnings or protecting fair values of assets and liabilities.
At March 31, 20192020 and December 31, 2018,2019, the Company had outstanding forward exchange contracts with gross notional values of approximately $164$176 million and $167$207 million, respectively. Approximately 65%At March 31, 2020, approximately 72% of these contracts mature within three months, 14%11% in three to six months, 16%13% in six to twelve months and 5%4% in greater than twelve months. Most of these foreign currency derivative contracts are designated as cash flow hedges and did not have a material impact on the Company's balance sheet, income statement or cash flows for the periods presented.

Refer to Note 108 – Fair Value of Financial Assets and Liabilities for additional information regarding the fair value of the Company's foreign exchange forward contracts.

Note 108 – 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 basebased 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.

The fair value amounts for Cash and cash equivalents, Restricted cash, Accounts receivable, net and Short-term debt approximate carrying amounts due to the short-term maturities of these instruments.

The fair value of the Goodwill impairment of $284 million recorded for the three months ended March 31, 2019, was estimated based on a discounted cash flow and market multiple analysis (level 3). Refer to Note 18 – Goodwill to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information regarding this impairment charge.

The fair value of the Assets held for sale and the Liabilities held for sale were measured based on the sales price less estimated transactions costs (Level 3). Refer to Note 5 – Assets/Liabilities Held for Sale to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information

The fair value of Long-term debt was estimated based on the current rates offered to the Company for debt of similar maturities (Level 2).

The fair value of the contingent consideration payable related to the HSP acquisition was measured using a Monte Carlo simulation model and calibrated to management’s financial projections of the acquired business. The value of the contingent consideration payable is then estimated to be the arithmetic average of all simulation paths, discounted to the valuation date (Level 3). The changes in the fair value are recorded in Other income (expense), net on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income (Loss).

Note 119 – Employee Benefit Plans

The Company has post-retirement savings and investment plans in several countries, including the U.S., U.K. and Canada. In many instances, employees from those defined benefit pension plans that have been amended to freeze future service accruals were transitioned to an enhanced defined contribution plan. In these plans, employees are allowed to contribute a portion of their salaries and bonuses to the plans. Historically, the Company matched a portion of employee contributions. However, beginning in 2019, the Company has suspended its match to the 401(k) plan for all U.S. employees, except hourlysalaried employees.

The Company recognized an expense related to its defined contribution plans of $3$1 million and $8$3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, and 2018, respectively. As a result of suspending 401(K) match for U.S. employees as indicated above, there was a $3 million reduction in expense for the three months ended March 31, 2019.

Note 1311 – Contingencies and Litigation

As more fully discussed below, the Company is involved in a variety of claims, lawsuits, investigations and proceedings concerning:concerning a variety of matters, including: governmental entity contracting, servicing and procurement law; intellectual property law; employment law; commercial and contracts law; the Employee Retirement Income Security Act (ERISA); and other laws regulations and matters.regulations. The Company determines whether an estimated loss from a contingency should be accrued by assessing whether a loss is deemed probable and can be reasonably estimated. The Company assesses its potential liability by analyzing its litigation, regulatory and regulatoryother matters using available information. The Company develops its view on estimated losses in consultation with outside counsel handling its defense in these matters, which involves an analysis of potential results, assuming a combination of litigation and settlement strategies. Should developments in any of these matters cause a change in the Company's determination as to an unfavorable outcome and result in the need to recognize a material accrual, or should any of these matters result in a final adverse judgment or be settled for significant amounts in excess of any accrual for such matter or matters, this could have a material adverse effect on the Company's results of operations, cash flows and financial position in the period or periods in which such change in determination, judgment or settlement occurs. The Company believes it has recorded adequate provisions for any such matters as of March 31, 2019.2020. Litigation is inherently unpredictable, and it is not possible to predict the ultimate outcome of these matters and such outcome in any such matters could be in excess of any amounts accrued and could be material to the Company's results of operations, cash flows or financial position in any reporting period.

Additionally, guarantees, indemnifications and claims arise during the ordinary course of business from relationships with suppliers, customers and non-consolidated affiliates when the Company undertakes an obligation to guarantee the performance of others if specified triggering events occur. Nonperformance under a contract could trigger an obligation of the Company. These potential claims include actions based upon alleged exposures to products, real estate, intellectual property such as patents, environmental matters and other indemnifications. The ultimate effect on future financial results is not subject to reasonable estimation because considerable uncertainty exists as to the final outcome of these claims. However, while the ultimate liabilities resulting from such claims may be significant to results of operations in the period recognized, management does not anticipate they will have a material adverse effect on the condensed consolidated financial position or liquidity. As of March 31, 2019,2020, the Company had accrued its estimate of liability incurred under its indemnification arrangements and guarantees.

Dennis Nasrawi v. Buck Consultants et al.: On October 8, 2009, plaintiffs filed a lawsuit in the Superior Court of California, Stanislaus County, and on November 24, 2009, the case was removed to the U.S. Court for the Eastern District of California, Fresno Division. Plaintiffs allege actuarial negligence against Buck Consultants, LLC (“Buck”), which was a wholly-owned subsidiary of Conduent, for the use of faulty actuarial assumptions in connection with the 2007 actuarial valuation for the Stanislaus County Employees Retirement Association (“StanCERA”). Plaintiffs allege that the employer contribution rate adopted by StanCERA based on Buck’s valuation was insufficient to fund the benefits promised by the County. On July 13, 2012, the Court entered its ruling that the plaintiffs lacked standing to sue in a representative capacity on behalf of all plan participants. The Court also ruled that plaintiffs had adequately pleaded their claim that Buck allegedly aided and abetted StanCERA in breaching its fiduciary duty. Plaintiffs then filed their Fifth Amended Complaint and added StanCERA to the litigation. Buck and StanCERA filed demurrers to the amended complaint. On September 13, 2012, the Court sustained both demurrers with prejudice, completely dismissing the matter and barring plaintiffs from refiling their claims. Plaintiffs appealed, and ultimately the California Court of Appeals (Sixth District) reversed the trial court’s ruling and remanded the case back to the trial court as to Buck only, and only with respect to Plaintiff’sPlaintiffs' claim of aiding and abetting StanCERA in breaching its fiduciary duty. This case has been stayed pending the outcome of parallel litigation the plaintiffs are pursuing against StanCERA. The parallel litigation was tried before the bench in June 2018, and on January 24, 2019, the court found in favor of StanCERA, holding that it had not breached its fiduciary duty to plaintiffs. On April 26, 2019, Plaintiffs in the parallel litigation have the right to filefiled an appeal, which we expect. Nasrawiappeal. This case remains stayed until the parallel litigation is finally concluded. Absent the court finding that StanCERA breached its fiduciary duty, plaintiffs’Plaintiffs’ claim against Buck for aiding and abetting said breach would not appear viable. Buck will continue to aggressively defend these lawsuits. In August 2018, Conduent sold Buck Consultants, LLC; however, the Company retained this liability after the sale. The Company is not able to determine or predict the ultimate outcome of this proceeding or reasonably provide an estimate or range of estimate of the possible outcome or loss, if any.any, in excess of currently recorded reserves.

Other Matters

On January 5, 2016, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (the "CFPB") notifiedSince 2014, Xerox Education Services, Inc. (XES) that, in accordance("XES") has cooperated with the CFPB’s discretionary Noticeseveral federal and Opportunity to Respond and Advise (NORA) process, the CFPB’s Officestate agencies regarding a variety 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 have commenced an action, it may have sought 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. XES submitted its response to the NORA. The CFPB’s NORA stems from an inquiry that commenced in 2014 when XES received and responded to a CFPB Civil Investigative Demand containing a broad request for information. During this process, XES self-disclosedmatters, including XES' self-disclosure to the U.S. Department of Education (the "Department") and the CFPB certain adjustments of which it had become awareConsumer Financial Protection Bureau ("CFPB") 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 an inquiry the Illinois Attorney General's Office commenced in September 2019, the Company has resolved the investigations the CFPB and several state agencies commenced and continues to work with the U.S. Department of Education,and the U.S. Department of Justice and several state agencies began similar reviews. XES has cooperated and continues to fully cooperate withresolve all regulatory agencies and has resolved the state agency investigations. Asoutstanding issues, including a resultnumber of these regulatory inquiries, its own reviews of operations and work performed by external auditors, XES identified and remediated certain other operational issues. XES disclosed these additional operational projects to the Department at the end of the second quarter of 2018that XES discovered and to the CFPB in late 2018. In the third quarter of 2018, the Company exited the Student Loan Services business. In the first quarter of 2019, the Company resolved the CFPB’s investigation.disclosed since 2014. The Company cannot provide assurance that the CFPB, another regulator, a financial institution on behalf of which the Company serviced third-party student loans, or another party will not ultimately commence a legal action against XES in which fines, penalties or other liabilities are sought from XES. Nor is the Company able to predict the likely outcome of these matters, should any such matter be commenced, or reasonably provide an estimate or range of estimates of any loss in excess of current reserves. The Company could, in future periods, incur judgments or enter into settlements to resolve these potential matters for amounts in excess of current reserves and there could be a material adverse effect on the 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 the Company's Government Services and Transportation segments, require the Company to provide a surety bond or a letter of credit as a guarantee of performance. As of March 31, 2019,2020, the Company had $636$591 million of outstanding surety bonds used to secure its performance of contractual obligations with its clients and $266$210 million of outstanding letters of credit issued to secure the Company's performance of contractual obligations to its clients as well as other corporate obligations. In general, the Company would only be liable for the amount of these guarantees in the event of default in the Company's performance of its obligations under each contract. The Company believes it has sufficient capacity in the surety markets and liquidity from its cash flow and its various credit arrangements (including its Credit Facility)Revolver) to allow it to respond to future requests for proposals that require such credit support.

Note 1815 – Related Party Transactions

During the third quarter of 2019, Carl C. Icahn and his affiliates (shareholders) increased their ownership interest in the Company. In the normal course of business, the Company provides services to, and purchases from, certain related parties with the same shareholders. The services provided to these entities included those related to human resources, end-user support and other services and solutions. The purchases from these entities included office equipment and related services and supplies. In addition, we have a receivable related to certain income tax matters and a payable for certain litigation related reimbursement matters with our former parent company, Xerox Corporation. Revenue and purchases from these entities were included in Revenue and Costs of services / Selling, General and administrative, respectively, on the Company's Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income (Loss).

In the first quarter of 2020, the Company performed its ongoing assessment to consider whether events or circumstances had occurred that could more likely than not reduce the fair value of a result of the Transportation reporting unit experiencing unanticipated losses of certain customer contracts, lower than expected new customer contracts and higher costs of delivery (all subsequent to February 2019), the growth of this reporting unit decreased resulting in its fair value being below its carrying value. After evaluating and weighing all relevant events and circumstances, we concluded that it is not more likely than not that the fair values of any of our reporting units were less than their carrying values. Consequently, we determined that it was not necessary to perform an interim impairment test for any of our reporting units.

To the extent the COVID-19 pandemic continues to disrupt the economic environment, such as a decline in the performance of the reporting units or loss of a significant contract or multiple significant contracts, the fair value by approximately $284 million. Asof one or more of the reporting units could fall below their carrying value, resulting in a result,goodwill impairment charge.

In addition, the Company recorded a pre-taxhas assessed whether any impairment charge of approximately $284 million for the three months endedits amortizable assets existed and has determined that no charges were deemed necessary under applicable accounting standards as of March 31, 2019.2020.

Throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, we have continued to provide critical and best-in-class services to our customers and their end-users, while ensuring the health and safety of our greatest assets - our associates. To address the potential impact to our business, over the near-term, our Business Continuity team has established a proactive plan, which includes:

Supporting our associates with a number of specific initiatives, including making improvements to our policies to extend short term disability, providing extra supplemental sick leave coverage, and introducing a hardship leave policy.

Shifting majority of our workforce to work-from-home. This took a coordinated effort from our technology team and our site location representatives, while focusing on stringent safety and security precautions.

Increased sanitation and social distancing for required on-site essential associates.

Draw down on our revolving credit facility (Revolver) as a precautionary measure.

In addition, the Company’s COVID-19 response has also resulted in diversion of management's time and delayed investments from strategic, transformational and technology initiatives which had been planned.

As the crisis continues, we may revise our approach to these initiatives or take additional actions to meet the needs of our employees, customers and their end-users and the Company and to continue to provide our mission-critical ​services and solutions.

Revenue

Revenue for the three months ended March 31, 20192020 decreased, compared to the prior year period, primarily due to the impact from divestitures completed in 2018 and 2019, strategic decisions by management as part of our portfolio rationalization, including exiting certain unprofitable contracts, contract losses, volume and currency fluctuations.price pressure and the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. Partially offsetting these declines were increases from the ramp of new business.

The Company identified approximately $14 million of the revenue decline for the three months ended March 31, 2020 was directly attributable to the COVID-19 impact. The impact was primarily driven by lower volume demand in the Transportation and the Commercial Industries segments.

Cost of Services (excluding depreciation and amortization)

Cost of services for the three months ended March 31, 20192020 decreased, compared to the prior year period, mainly driven by divestitures completed in 2019, reductions in real estate, information technology and labor costs from our strategic transformation initiatives, lost business, strategic contract actions taken by management as part of portfolio management, lower volumes and divestitures completedlower costs to support volume lost resulting from COVID-19. These savings were partially offset by increases in 2018technology costs to support work from home and 2019.increased cleaning and sanitation expenses. The Company is implementing certain cost mitigation activities to offset these increased costs.

Selling, General and Administrative (SG&A) (excluding depreciation and amortization)

Lower SG&A for the three months ended March 31, 2019,2020, compared to the prior year period, was reflective of the impact of our strategic transformation initiatives, primarily due todivested SG&A expenses, reductions in real estate costs, lower corporate overhead costs and reductions in labor costs. These savings were partially offset by increases in technology costs as well as the reduction in 401(K) costs and negotiated IT contractto support work from home. The Company is implementing certain cost mitigation activities to offset these increased costs. As a result of the Company suspending its 401(K) match for U.S. employees, except hourly employees, there was a $3 million reduction in expense for the three months ended March 31, 2019.

Income Taxes

On March 27, 2020, the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (CARES Act) was signed into law. The CARES Act provides for various tax relief and tax incentive measures, which are not expected to have a material impact on the Company's income tax provision. The payment of the employer share of payroll taxes for the remainder of 2020 will be deferred to 2021 & 2022 under the CARES Act, which will provide a temporary operating cash flow benefit.

The effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2020 was 3.9%, compared to 8.9% for the three months ended March 31, 2019. The March 31, 2020 rate was lower than the U.S. statutory rate of 21%, primarily due to the geographic mix of income, valuation allowances and tax charges recognized on the vesting of employee equity awards, partially offset by tax credits.

The effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2019 was 8.9%, compared with 7.4% for the three months ended March 31, 2018. The March 31, 2019 rate was lower than the U.S. statutory tax rate of 21%, primarily due to the goodwill impairment charge being partially non-deductible for tax and the geographic mix of income, partially offset by the tax benefit recognized on the sale of a portfolio of select standalone customer care contracts to Skyview Capital LLC.

TheExcluding the impact of valuation allowances, vesting of equity awards, amortization of intangible assets and restructuring costs, the normalized effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 20182020 was lower than the statutory33.3%. The normalized effective tax rate of 21%, primarily due to34.7% for the geographic mix of income and the impact of Global Intangible Low Tax Income and Base Erosion Anti-Abuse Tax (BEAT), which reduced the tax benefits on the worldwide loss.

Excluding the impact ofthree months ended March 31, 2019, was predominantly impacted by the goodwill impairment, divestitures, the Texas litigation reserve, charges for amortization of intangible assets, restructuring and divestiture related costs, the normalized effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2019 was 34.7%. The normalized effective tax rate of 34.7% for the three months ended March 31, 2018, was predominantly impacted by the exclusion of charges for amortization of intangible assets, restructuring and divestiture related costs and the impact of BEAT.costs.

The Company believes it is reasonably possible that unrecognized tax benefits of approximately $20$13 million will reverse within 12 months due to an anticipated audit settlement.

Operations Review of Segment Revenue and Profit

During the first quarter of 2020, we realigned our sales organization and certain shared IT and other allocated costs to reflect how we currently manage our business. All prior periods presented have been revised to reflect this change. Our financial performance is based on Segment Profit / (Loss) and Segment Adjusted EBITDA for the following three segments:

Renewal rate is defined as the annual recurring revenue (ARR) on contracts that are renewed during the period as a percentage of ARR on all contracts for which a renewal decision was made during the period, excluding any contracts that were not renewed and where a strategic action to improve the risk or profitability had been initiated.

Excluding our strategic decision not to renew certain contracts and impact of divestitures, renewal rates for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 were 93% and 2018 were 92% and 94%, respectively.

Critical Accounting Policies - Goodwill

As a resultCOVID-19 Outbreak

The Company is experiencing disruptions to its business, costs, operations, supply chain, and customer demand for its services and solutions due to the rapid and widening spread of the Transportation reporting unit experiencing unanticipated lossesCOVID-19 pandemic. While we experienced some benefits, mainly increases in certain government subsidy programs such as Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program and Unemployment Insurance, these were more than offset with declines in retail call volumes, large banking client volume declines in transaction processing, interest rate exposure in our BenefitWallet business, declines in child support and Medicaid volumes, transit solutions and curbside management solutions volume, among other challenges. We expect similar challenges and potential declines in volume ahead of us, but we also have some offsetting factors such as leveraging automation, focusing on temporary and long-term cost solutions through re-engineering our operating model and leveraging our work-from-home infrastructure.

The Company also continues to monitor the potential impact on the carrying values of certain customer contracts, lower thanassets. These foregoing factors and other factors, which may worsen, can be expected new customer contracts and higher costs of delivery (all subsequent to February 2019), the growth of this reporting unit decreased resulting in its fair value being below its carrying value by approximately $284 million. Ashave a result, the Company recorded a pre-tax impairment charge of approximately $284 million.

In addition, basedmaterial adverse impact on our discounted cash flowbusiness, operations, financial results and market multiple analysis, we evaluated if the goodwillcapital resources. The ultimate impact of the other reporting units were also impaired. The weighted average costCOVID-19 pandemic on us is highly uncertain and subject to change and will depend on future developments, which cannot be accurately predicted, including the duration of capital usedthe pandemic, additional or modified government actions, new information that will emerge concerning the severity and impact of COVID-19 and the actions taken to contain COVID-19 or address its impact in the short and long term, among others.

Although, we did not have a goodwill impairmentimpact of COVID-19 could significantly affect the amounts disclosed in the MD&A – Financial Services & Healthcare (FS&H) reporting unit, the Consumer & Industrial (C&I) reporting unit or in the Government Services reporting unit, the fair valuesReview of each of these reporting units have declined. These reporting units may become impaired if they experience significant customer losses, do not achieve new customer signing projections, or incur higher costs than projected. The goodwill, carrying valuesOperations and the headroom for FS&H, C&I, EuropeMD&A – Operations Review of Segment Revenue and Profit, as the Government reporting units are as follows:

In addition, because the fair valueeffect of the Transportation unit is equal to the book value of the reporting unit, the Transportation reporting unit goodwill could be further impaired if there are further customer contracts lossesCOVID-19 pandemic. For additional information on various COVID-19 impacts, uncertainties and lower expected new customer contracts.

The most significant assumption usedrisks, see Part II, Item 1A – Risk Factors included in the goodwill analysis relates to the long-term organic growth rates. For example, the EBITDA long-term growth rate for FS&H and C&I reporting units was 3%, and for Government Services was 2.5%. The growth rates are consistent with industry long-term growth rates and contemplate that Conduent will grow, on a long-term basis, at least consistent with its peers. To the extent that Conduent loses a significant contract or multiple significant contracts, such that its growth rates are negatively impacted, its goodwill could be impaired. For example, if Conduent’s EBITDA long-term growth rates were reduced to 1% for all reporting units (except for Europe and Transportation), the fair values of the reporting units would approximate their book values.

We expectIn order to provide financial flexibility and finance certain investments and projects, we may continue to utilize external financing arrangements. However, we believe that our operating cash flows combined with cash on hand, projected cash flow from operations, sound balance sheet and financing activitiesrevolving line of credit will continue to beprovide sufficient financial resources to fundmeet our expected operating and anticipated capital and other funding requirementsbusiness obligations for at least the next twelve months.

Market Risk Management

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. We may utilize derivative financial instruments 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 97 – Financial Instruments in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional discussion on our financial risk management.

ITEM 1A — RISK FACTORS

Reference is made to the Risk Factors set forth in Part I, Item 1A of our 20182019 Annual Report on Form 10-K. There have been no material changesBelow are additions to our risk factors as previously reported in our 20182019 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Supplemental Risk Factor

In light of recent developments relating to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company is supplementing the risk factors previously disclosed in Item 1A of its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 27, 2020, to include the following risk factor:

Our business has been and will continue to be negatively impacted by the ongoing coronavirus pandemic.

Beginning in late 2019, the outbreak of a novel strain of virus named SARS-CoV-2 (severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2), or coronavirus, which causes coronavirus disease 2019, or COVID-19, has evolved into a global pandemic and has spread to most regions of the world.

As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, we have experienced and can be expected to continue to experience disruptions to our business, our operations, the delivery of our services and customer demand for our services and business offerings, including:

Social distancing, shelter-in-place and stay-at-home requirements and guidance of national, regional, state and local governments have required that substantial services being performed by us for our customers be shifted to work-from-home alternatives, which have created added burdens, risks and costs, including but not limited to: the added cost and uncertainty created by a significant change in our delivery model; delays and disruptions resulting from organizing and implementing work-from-home solutions, particularly in our lower cost geographies, such as India and the Philippines, which have not in the past generally permitted or accommodated work-from-home alternatives; customer protocols not allowing, without express customer waiver or permission, work-from-home alternatives, due to sensitivity of customer data, inclusion of personally identifiable information, cybersecurity and data security concerns, and other factors; delays and disruptions in providing customer services which may adversely affect our reputation and may in the future result in failure to satisfy customer contract requirements and other noncompliance issues; challenges in and cost of equipping work-from-home solutions with appropriate technology equipment and software, with suitable security protections; potential for increased cybersecurity and other data security issues; compliance with legal, regulatory, industry and customer standards and specifications; and increased logistical issues resulting from unexpected shift in service delivery model. As a result of these and other factors related to work-from-home solutions, we have experienced and can be expected to continue to experience delays and disruptions and an adverse impact on our business, operations, costs, satisfaction of customer requirements and operating results and financial condition.

The COVID-19 pandemic has impacted and may be expected to continue to adversely impact customer demand for our services and business offerings. Many of our customers have experienced and will continue to experience substantial disruption in their own operations. In addition, many of our governmental and non-governmental customers have been allocating resources and management attention away from the ordinary conduct of their business and toward responding to COVID-19 related emergent events. Our sales and marketing personnel are also largely required to perform their services via virtual or other telecommunication alternatives, rather than in-person interactions. The COVID-19 pandemic has also resulted in greater customer uncertainty in their short-term and longer-term needs. In addition, under certain contracts we earn revenues based on the number of transactions processed, such as, for example, certain transportation and credit card processing arrangements where the number of transactions has decreased due to the COVID-19 pandemic. These and other pandemic-related factors have and will continue to adversely impact revenues, sales, new business opportunities, pricing and our sales pipeline.

Further, our management has been focused on mitigating the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, which has required and will continue to require a substantial investment of time and resources across our enterprise. This has resulted and can be expected to continue to result in a diversion of management attention, resources and previously planned investments away from strategic, transformational and technology initiatives which had been intended to improve customer demand, new business opportunities, business retention, service delivery, potential divestitures or acquisitions, and the overall profitability of our business and we cannot predict how long this may continue.

Our government contracts are often subject to a government entity’s right to change the scope of work or to terminate their project for funding reasons or at their convenience. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic and its current and future impact on governments, budgets and resources, we may experience government contracts’ reductions or terminations.

We are a leading provider of business processing services concentrated on transaction-intensive processing including financial transactions. If we fail to satisfy a customer’s requirements or specifications, we could incur additional costs to address such dissatisfaction or on account of such deficiency as well as receive notice of termination. The COVID-19 pandemic has had and can be expected to continue to have an impact on compliance and non-interruption of service under certain customer contractual requirements, and certain customer relationships can be expected to be adversely impacted, in addition to our incurring added costs in response to any deficiency.

The COVID-19 pandemic may have had and may continue to have an adverse impact on the operations, financial results and finances of many of our customers, which could impact customer payment cycles and payments due from customers.

We rely on third parties to provide technology, other services and products we need to operate our business. Delays or interruption in the operations of third parties on which we rely may result in disruptions in our own operations and fulfillment of our customers’ requirements.

The economic downturn could also result in the carrying value of our goodwill or other intangible assets exceeding their fair value, which could require us to recognize further asset impairment.

We also cannot predict the impact of remote working arrangements on our internal systems and normal administrative services.

To the extent we draw under our credit facility, our debt would increase. Such increase in our level of debt could adversely affect our financial results or ability to incur additional debt and could negatively impact our credit ratings. In addition, as a result of the risks described above, we may be required to raise additional debt or equity financing, and our access to and cost of financing will depend on, among other things, global economic conditions, conditions in the global financing markets, the availability of sufficient amounts of financing, our prospects, our credit ratings, and the outlook for our industry as a whole. If, as a result of COVID-19, credit agencies downgrade our credit ratings, or general market conditions were to ascribe higher risk to our credit rating levels, our access to capital and cost of debt financing may be negatively impacted and certain of our existing commercial agreements may require us to post collateral; the continuing impact of the COVID-19 pandemic could also negatively impact our compliance with our financial covenants under our credit facilities. In addition, the terms of future debt agreements could include more restrictive covenants.

The trading prices for our common shares and the securities of other companies in our industry have been highly volatile as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic and a recession, depression or other sustained adverse market event resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic could materially and adversely affect the financial markets, the value of our common shares and our ability to obtain equity or debt financing on favorable or acceptable terms.


The COVID-19 pandemic continues to rapidly evolve, and additional material impacts and disruptions are likely to occur. These and other factors, which may worsen, can be expected to have a material adverse impact on our business, operations, financial results and capital resources. The ultimate impact of Contentsthe COVID-19 pandemic on us is highly uncertain and subject to change and will depend on future developments, which cannot be accurately predicted, including the duration of the pandemic, additional or modified government actions, new information that will emerge concerning the severity and impact of COVID-19 and the actions taken to contain COVID-19 or address its impact in the short and long term, among others. We do not yet know and cannot predict the full extent of potential impacts on our business, our services and business offerings or our operating results and financial condition.


Please also refer to the complete Item 1A of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 27, 2020 for additional risks and uncertainties facing the Company, any of which risks and uncertainties can be expected to be further heightened by the COVID-19 pandemic and have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, prospects, financial condition, results of operations and capital resources.
