our management of business restructuring transactions and the integration of acquisitions;

risks related to the drug development services industry that could result in potential liability that could affect our business, reputation and financial condition;

~~(amounts in tables in thousands, except per share data)~~

1. Basis of Presentation

Description of Business

PPD, Inc. (together with its subsidiaries “PPD” or the “Company”) is a holding company incorporated in Delaware. References to the “Company” throughout these condensed consolidated financial statements refer to PPD, Inc. and its consolidated ~~subsidiaries.~~subsidiaries, unless the context indicates otherwise. The Company is a leading provider of drug development services to the biopharmaceutical industry, focused on helping the Company’s customers bring their new medicines to patients around the world. The Company has been in the drug development services business for more than 30 years, providing a comprehensive suite of clinical development and laboratory services to pharmaceutical, biotechnology, medical device, government organizations and other industry participants. The Company has deep experience across a broad range of rapidly growing areas of drug development and engages with customers through a variety of commercial models, including both full-service and functional service partnerships and other offerings tailored to address the specific needs of the Company’s customers. The Company has two reportable segments, Clinical Development Services (“Clinical Development Services”) and Laboratory Services (“Laboratory Services”).

Unaudited Interim Financial Information and the Use of Estimates

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial reporting. The significant accounting policies followed by the Company for interim financial reporting are consistent with the accounting policies it follows for annual financial reporting and are disclosed in Note 1 of the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, ~~(the “2019 Annual~~as superseded by, and solely to the extent set forth in, the Company’s first Current Report on Form ~~10-K”~~8-K filed on May 21, 2020 (the “May 2020 Form 8-K”). There have been no significant changes to the Company’s significant accounting policies during the first ~~three~~six months of 2020, except for a change in how the Company’s Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) assesses segment performance. See Note 14, “Segments,” for additional information.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The Company monitors estimates and assumptions on a continuous basis and updates these estimates and assumptions as facts and circumstances change and new information is obtained, including facts and circumstances related to the novel coronavirus disease (the “COVID-19 pandemic”). Actual results could differ from those estimates and assumptions due to, among other things, the ~~increased~~ impacts caused by the COVID-19 pandemic.

In the opinion of the Company’s management, these condensed consolidated financial statements include all

adjustments of a normal recurring nature necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, results of operations and

cash flows for the interim periods presented. The results of operations for the three and six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020 are not

necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full twelve-month period ending December 31, 2020 or any other future period. Therefore, the information included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in its ~~2019 Annual Report on~~May 2020 Form ~~10-K.~~8-K. The information as of December 31, 2019 in the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet included herein is derived from the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements included in the ~~2019 Annual Report on~~May 2020 Form ~~10-K.~~8-K.

Principles of Consolidation

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts and operations of the Company. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Amounts pertaining to the redeemable noncontrolling ownership interest held by a third-party in the operating results and financial position of the Company’s indirect majority-owned subsidiary are included as a noncontrolling interest.

Initial Public Offering

On February 6, 2020, the Company’s common stock began trading on The Nasdaq Global Select Market under the symbol “PPD.” On February 10, 2020, the Company completed its initial public offering (“IPO”) of its common stock at a price to the public of $27.00 per share. The Company issued and sold 69.0 million shares of common stock in the IPO, including 9.0 million shares of common stock issued pursuant to the full exercise of the underwriters’ option to purchase additional shares. The Company raised net proceeds of $1,773.0 million through the IPO, after deducting underwriting discounts and other offering expenses totaling $90.0 million. During the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020, the Company expensed $4.0 million of costs related to the IPO.

The Company used a portion of the net proceeds from the IPO to ~~(1)~~(i) redeem $550.0 million in aggregate principal amount of unsecured 7.625%/8.375% Senior PIK Toggle Notes (the “Initial HoldCo Notes”), plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon and $5.5 million of redemption premium and ~~(2)~~(ii) redeem $900.0 million in aggregate principal amount of unsecured 7.75%/8.50% Senior PIK Toggle Notes (the “Additional HoldCo Notes” and, together with the Initial HoldCo Notes, the “HoldCo Notes”), plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon and $9.0 million of redemption premium. The redemption of the HoldCo Notes resulted in a loss on extinguishment of debt of $50.1 million. See Note 6, “Long-term Debt and Finance Lease Obligations,” for additional information regarding the redemption.

In connection with the IPO, the Company’s board of directors adopted and stockholders approved the PPD, Inc. 2020 Omnibus Incentive Plan (“2020 Incentive Plan”) to implement a new market-based long-term incentive program to align the Company’s executive compensation package with similarly situated public companies. Any awards previously granted under the Eagle Holding Company I 2017 Incentive Plan (the “Eagle I Plan”) remain subject to the terms of the Eagle I Plan and the applicable award agreements. In May 2020, 1,169,504 awards, including time-based stock options, restricted stock units and performance stock units, with an aggregate fair value of $26.6 million, were granted under the 2020 Incentive Plan. The fair value of the awards issued under the 2020 Incentive Plan is determined in the same manner as described in the May 2020 Form 8-K, with the exception of the Company’s publicly traded stock value being used as the fair value of the Company’s common stock. As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020, there were ~~39,053,663~~37,887,711 shares of common stock available for issuance under the 2020 Incentive ~~Plan with no awards outstanding under the plan.~~Plan. No awards were issued under the Eagle I Plan for the three and six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020 and no additional awards will be granted under the Eagle I Plan in the future. See Note 4, “Stock-based Compensation,” of the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements included in the ~~2019 Annual Report on~~May 2020 Form ~~10-K~~8-K for additional ~~information on the Eagle I Plan.~~information. Additionally, in connection with the IPO, the Company’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, among other things, provides that the Company’s authorized capital consists of 2.0 billion shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share and 100.0 million shares of preferred stock, par value $0.01 per share. ~~Further, in connection with the IPO, all non-voting shares of common stock were converted to voting shares of common stock.~~

During the first quarter of 2020, the Company terminated its cash-based long-term incentive plan (the “LTIP”) and accelerated the remaining expense for future service under the plan. The LTIP was terminated to align the long-term compensation package of a certain set of employees to the interests of the Company’s stockholders and that offered by similarly situated public companies. These employees ~~will receive annual~~started receiving stock-based ~~equity~~ awards under the 2020 Incentive Plan beginning in May 2020. During the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020, the Company recorded compensation expense of $22.2 million for the acceleration of expense under the LTIP. The compensation expense was recorded as a component of direct costs and selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses on the condensed consolidated statement of ~~operations and is recorded as accrued employee compensation on the condensed consolidated balance sheet.~~operations.

Recently Adopted Accounting Standard

In August 2018, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued an accounting standards update to address a customer’s accounting for implementation costs incurred in a cloud computing arrangement that is a service contract. This new guidance was issued to align the accounting for costs incurred to implement a cloud computing arrangement that is a service contract with the guidance on capitalizing costs associated with developing or obtaining internal-use software. Upon the adoption of this standard, implementation costs incurred in a cloud computing arrangement that is a service contract will be capitalized and presented in the financial statements similar to prepaid expenses related to service contracts. Additionally, expenses associated with capitalized implementation costs will be recorded in the same financial statement line item as the fees associated with the hosting element of a cloud computing arrangement. The Company adopted this accounting standards update on January 1, 2020 using the prospective method. The adoption of this accounting standards update did not have a material impact to the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

The 2025 Notes mature on June 15, 2025 and the 2028 Notes mature on June 15, 2028. Interest on the New Notes is payable semi-annually on June 15 and December 15 of each year. The New Notes do not have registration rights. Debt issuance costs of $18.6 million, consisting primarily of underwriters fees and professional fees, were capitalized in connection with the issuance of the New Notes. The net proceeds from the New Notes were used to redeem all outstanding $1,125.0 million aggregate principal amount of unsecured 6.375% senior notes (the “OpCo Notes”), as well as to pay for the redemption premium and accrued interest on the OpCo Notes and debt issuance costs associated with the New Notes.

The Company may redeem, at its option, some or all of the 2025 Notes prior to June 15, 2022, or the 2028 Notes prior to June 15, 2023, at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the 2025 Notes and 2028 Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the redemption date plus a “make-whole” premium. Alternatively, within the same time frame, the Company may redeem up to 40% of the original principal amount of the 2025 Notes or the 2028 Notes, as applicable, with the proceeds of certain equity offerings at a redemption price of 104.625%, in the case of the 2025 Notes, and 105.000%, in the case of the 2028 Notes, of the principal amount of the 2025 Notes or the 2028 Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the redemption date.

On or after June 15, 2022, in the case of the 2025 Notes, and June 15, 2023, in the case of the 2028 Notes, the Company may redeem some or all of such notes at the redemption prices listed below (expressed as a percentage of the principal amount), plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the redemption date, if redeemed during ~~2019.~~the 12-month period commencing on June 15 of the years set forth below.

Upon the occurrence of specific kinds of changes of control events, the holders of the New Notes will have the right to cause the Company to repurchase some or all of the New Notes at 101% of face amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the repurchase date. Additionally, if the Company or its restricted subsidiaries sells assets, under certain circumstances, the Company will be required to make an offer to purchase a specified amount of New Notes equal to the net proceeds of such sale at an offer price in cash at the amount equal to 100% of the principal amount of the New Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the repurchase date.

The New Notes are unsecured obligations and (i) rank senior in right of payment to all of the Company’s existing and future subordinated indebtedness, (ii) rank equally in right of payment with all of the Company’s existing and future senior indebtedness, (iii) are effectively subordinated to any of the Company’s existing and future secured debt, to the extent of the value of the assets securing such debt and (iv) are structurally subordinated to all of the existing and future liabilities of each of the Company’s subsidiaries that do not guarantee the New Notes. The New Notes contain customary covenants including, but not limited to, restrictions on the Company and its restricted subsidiaries’ ability to incur additional indebtedness and guarantee indebtedness; pay dividends or make other distributions in respect of, or repurchase or redeem, capital stock; make loans and investments; sell or otherwise dispose of assets; incur liens; enter into transactions with affiliates; enter into agreements restricting the Company’s subsidiaries’ ability to pay dividends; and consolidate, merge or sell all or substantially all of their assets. Additionally, the Indenture for the New Notes includes certain customary events of default which may require acceleration of payment. Such events of default include nonpayment of principal or interest, failure to pay final judgments in excess of a specified threshold, failure of a guarantee to remain in effect, bankruptcy and insolvency events and cross acceleration, the occurrence of which could result in the principal of and accrued interest on the New Notes to become or be declared due and payable immediately.

Redemption of OpCo Notes

On June 5, 2020, the Company redeemed all its outstanding OpCo Notes in accordance with the provisions governing the OpCo Notes indenture for $1,160.9 million, including a redemption premium of $35.9 million. As such, the obligations of the Company under the OpCo Notes indenture were discharged on that date. Also as part of the redemption, the Company wrote off unamortized debt issuance costs related to the OpCo Notes of $7.6 million, and combined with the applicable redemption premium, resulted in a total loss on extinguishment of debt of $43.5 million. The Company redeemed the OpCo Notes with the proceeds received from the Company’s New Notes. See Note 10, “Long-term Debt and Finance Lease Obligations,” of the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements included in the May 2020 Form 8-K for additional information on the OpCo Notes.

Redemption of HoldCo Notes

On February 18, 2020, the Company redeemed all of its outstanding HoldCo Notes in accordance with the provisions governing the HoldCo Notes indentures for $1,464.5 million, including a redemption premium of $14.5 million. As such, the obligations of the Company under the HoldCo Notes and such indentures were discharged on that date. Also as part of the redemption, the Company wrote off the unamortized debt discount and deferred debt issuance costs related to the HoldCo Notes of $35.6 million. The Company redeemed the HoldCo Notes with a portion of the net proceeds received from the Company’s IPO. See Note 10, “Long-term Debt and Finance Lease ~~Obligations”~~Obligations,” of the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements included in the ~~2019 Annual Report on~~May 2020 Form ~~10-K~~8-K for additional information on the HoldCo Notes.

Other Debt

During the first six months of 2020, the Company repaid its working capital loan with SNBL which was classified as “other debt.” See Note 12, “Related Party Transactions,” for additional details on the Company’s transactions with SNBL.

Debt Covenants and Default Provisions

~~There~~Other than the customary covenants and default provisions related to the New Notes, there were no changes to the debt covenants or default provisions related to the Company’s outstanding debt

7. Income Taxes

On March 27, 2020, the ~~U. S.~~U.S. government passed the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”) in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. The CARES Act provides wide-ranging economic relief, including significant changes to U.S. business tax provisions. These changes include, in summary, (i) modifications to limitations on the deductibility of net operating losses, (ii) modifications to limitations on the deductibility of business interest, (iii) alternative minimum tax credit acceleration and (iv) the expensing of qualified improvement property. The most significant impact to the Company from the CARES Act relates to the modification to limitations on the deductibility of business interest and the expensing of qualified improvement property. The Company has accounted for the impact of the CARES Act on prior tax years within the ~~current~~ period ended March 31, 2020 and accounted for the impact on the current tax year in its annual effective tax rate and benefit from income taxes for the three and six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020. The Company is continuing to assess the income tax impact of the CARES Act and other legislative changes enacted and being considered by governments around the world in response to the COVID-19 pandemic.

The Company’s effective income tax rate was ~~40.0%~~21.2% and ~~19.2%~~17.0% for the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020 and 2019, ~~respectively.~~respectively, and 15.3% for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019. The Company’s ~~benefit from~~provision for income taxes for the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020 was primarily due to the estimated tax effect on the Company’s pre-tax ~~loss~~income. The Company’s provision for income taxes for the six months ended June 30, 2020 was primarily due to the estimated tax effect on the Company’s pre-tax income and the impact of favorable discrete items, including the release of a valuation allowance and the net impact of the CARES Act, partially offset by the tax impact of non-deductible compensation as a result of the IPO. The Company’s ~~benefit from~~provision for income taxes for the three and six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2019 was primarily due to the estimated tax effect on the Company’s pre-tax ~~loss and other~~income, partially offset by the impact from favorable discrete ~~tax impacts as a result of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017.~~items.

As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company’s total unrecognized tax benefits were ~~$18.1~~$18.3 million and $39.7 million, respectively. The decrease to the Company’s unrecognized tax benefits during the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020, was primarily the result of a $13.0 million release as a result of the application of the provisions of the CARES Act. Included in the balance of unrecognized tax benefits as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, were ~~$11.4~~$11.6 million and $28.8 million, respectively, net of the federal benefit for state taxes, that if recognized, would reduce the Company’s effective tax rate. In addition, the Company believes that it is reasonably possible that the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits could decrease by an amount up to ~~$4.2~~$4.1 million within the next 12 months due to the settlement of audits and the expiration of the statutes of limitations.

The Company has analyzed its filing positions in all significant federal, state and foreign jurisdictions where it is required to file income tax returns, as well as open tax years in these jurisdictions. The significant jurisdictions with periods subject to examination are the 2016 through 2019 tax years for the United States and the 2017 through 2019 tax years for the United Kingdom. Various foreign and state income tax returns are under examination by taxing authorities. The Company does not believe that the outcome of any examination or inquiry will have a material impact on its results of operations, financial condition or cash flows.

8. Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities

The Company has variable rate borrowings under its senior secured term loan outstanding under the Credit Agreement (the “Term Loan”), and as a result, is exposed to interest rate fluctuations on these borrowings. From time to time, the Company enters into interest rate swaps to mitigate the risk in fluctuations in interest rates. For hedges that qualify, the Company accounts for these interest rate swaps as qualifying cash flow hedges because their purpose is to hedge the Company’s exposure to increases in interest rates on its variable rate borrowings and as the interest rate swaps effectively convert variable rate borrowings under the Term Loan to fixed rate borrowings based on the fixed interest rate for the interest rate swaps plus the applicable margin on the Term Loan. For those interest rate swaps accounted for as cash flow hedges, the Company recognizes in accumulated other comprehensive loss (“AOCL”) or accumulated other comprehensive income (“AOCI”), ~~each~~ net of tax, any changes in the fair value, representing unrealized gains or losses, of its interest rate swaps. The Company assesses effectiveness at inception and on an ongoing quarterly basis. The Company may also enter into interest rate swap agreements that are not designated as cash flow hedges for accounting purposes. Changes in the fair value of interest rate swaps not designated as cash flow hedges are reported in the statements of operations as part of other (expense) income, ~~(expense),~~ net. The Company does not use derivative financial instruments for speculative or trading purposes and does not offset the fair value amounts of its derivatives.

In February 2020, the Company considered refinancing certain portions of its outstanding debt with new variable rate debt and, in anticipation thereof, the Company entered into three new variable to fixed interest rate swaps with multiple counterparties to hedge future interest rate exposure. At the inception date, the interest rate swaps were designated as cash flow hedges and accounted for in accordance with the aforementioned accounting policy. In February and March 2020, due to, among other factors, difficult and volatile conditions in the credit markets caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company did not enter into the new variable rate debt structure. Therefore, in March 2020, the Company entered into a fixed to variable interest rate swap which reduced the amount of variable rate debt being hedged.

The following table summarizes the material terms of the interest rate swaps outstanding as of ~~March 31, 2020:~~June 30, 2020 (dollars in thousands):



Swap #	Terms	Notional Amount		Fixed Interest Rate	Maturity Date
1	Variable to fixed	$	1,500,000	1.19%	March 31, 2025
2	Variable to fixed	1,500,000		1.22%	March 31, 2025
3	Variable to fixed	500,000		1.17%	March 31, 2025
4	Fixed to variable	500,000		0.52%	March 31, 2025

The Company did not designate the fixed to variable swap as a cash flow hedge for accounting purposes. Simultaneously upon entering into the fixed to variable swap, the Company discontinued cash flow hedge accounting on a variable to fixed swap with the same notional amount and began recording the change in fair value directly in earnings. The unrealized losses recorded in AOCL at the date of discontinuance will be reclassified into (i) interest expense, net, or (ii) other (expense) income, net, for any portion of the originally forecasted transactions deemed not probable to occur, through the original maturity date of the interest rate swap. Additionally, on the date of discontinuance, a $6.6 million loss resulting from originally forecasted transactions deemed probable not to occur was reclassified from AOCL to other income (expense), net, on the condensed consolidated statements of operations. The Company also recorded a loss of $1.7 million in other income (expense), net on the condensed consolidated statements of operations from the change in fair value of the undesignated interest rate swaps. Going forward, the Company expects the change in fair value of the two undesignated swaps to mostly offset in earnings as the swaps economically offset each other. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company recorded a loss of $0.2 million and $1.9 million, respectively, in other (expense) income, net, from the change in the fair value of the undesignated interest rate swaps. Current market conditions, including dislocation in the financial markets and volatility in interest rates due to the COVID-19 pandemic, may affect the performance of the Company’s hedging relationships for cash flow hedges, which could cause the hedging to no longer be effective.

In 2018, the Company terminated all of its previously outstanding interest rate swaps. These interest rate swaps were set to mature in November 2020. Unrealized gains previously recorded in AOCI through the date of termination will be reclassified into interest expense, net, through the original maturity date of the interest rate swaps.

The Company expects to reclassify current unrealized losses of ~~$20.0~~$28.0 million within the next 12 months from AOCL to interest expense, net, on the condensed consolidated statements of operations as interest payments are made on the Term Loan.

The Company recognized the following amounts of pre-tax loss as a component of AOCL during the three and six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020 and 2019:

9. Commitments and Contingencies

The Company records and discloses a liability for pending and threatened litigation matters when an adverse outcome is probable and the amount of the potential liability is reasonably estimable. The Company reviews claims and legal proceedings on a continuous basis and records or adjusts liabilities recorded for such matters based on updated facts and circumstances including settlements or offers to settle, judicial rulings, advice of counsel or other pertinent matters. Legal costs associated with contingencies are charged to expense as incurred.

The Company is involved in a variety of pending and threatened legal and tax proceedings, claims and litigation that arise from time to time in the ordinary course of business. These actions may be threatened or commenced by various parties, including customers, current or former employees, vendors, government agencies or others. Based on the latest information available, the Company does not expect any pending or threatened legal or tax proceeding, claim or litigation, either individually or in the aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on the business, financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.

10. Fair Value Measurements

The Company records certain assets and liabilities at fair value on a recurring and nonrecurring basis. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability, or the exit price, in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. U.S. GAAP establishes a fair value hierarchy that gives highest priority to quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities and the lowest level to unobservable inputs. The inputs used to measure fair value are classified into the following fair value hierarchy:

Level 1 - Quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that the Company can access at the measurement date.

Level 2 - Observable inputs other than quoted prices in Level 1, including (i) quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, (ii) quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active and (iii) observable inputs for the assets or liabilities other than quoted market prices.

Level 3 - Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. This includes assets and liabilities determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies or similar techniques reflecting the Company’s own assumptions.

Potential common shares outstanding that are considered anti-dilutive are excluded from the computation of diluted EPS. Potential common shares related to stock options and other awards under share-based compensation programs may be determined to be anti-dilutive based on the application of the treasury stock method and are also anti-dilutive in periods when the Company incurs a net loss.

The number of potential common shares outstanding that were considered anti-dilutive using the treasury stock method and therefore excluded from the computation of diluted EPS, weighted for the portion of the period they were outstanding, are as follows:

14. Segments

The Company is managed through two reportable segments, Clinical Development Services and Laboratory Services. The Company determines reportable segments using the management approach. The management approach is based on how the Company’s CODM organizes the segments for purposes of assessing performance and making operating decisions. The Clinical Development Services segment provides a wide range of services to its customers including early development/Phase I, patient recruitment and enrollment, investigator site management, Phase II-IV clinical trial management, medical communications and various peri- and post-approval services. The Laboratory Services segment provides comprehensive laboratory services to its customers including bioanalytical, vaccine sciences, good manufacturing practice, central lab and biomarker testing. Both segments provide services to pharmaceutical, biotechnology, medical device, government organizations and other industry participants.

~~(amounts in tables in thousands, except per share data)~~

The Company’s CODM assesses segment performance and makes resource allocation decisions based on segment revenues and segment operating income. During the first quarter of 2020, the CODM began assessing performance and making resource allocation decisions based on total segment revenue, including direct, third-party pass-through and out-of-pocket revenue and segment ~~performance~~operating income, including reimbursed costs. Previously, certain revenue amounts were not allocated to segments, whereas following the change, all revenue isand reimbursed costs are allocated to the respective segment. As a result, the Company has updated its segment presentation and all prior period information has been recast to reflect the change in the measurement of segment performance measures.

Segment operating income is segment revenue less segment direct costs, segment reimbursed costs and segment SG&A expenses. Segment operating income excludes certain unallocated direct costs and SG&A expenses, depreciation and amortization and other nonrecurring expenses or income consistent with the information reviewed by the CODM. The CODM reviews the Company’s assets on a consolidated basis and does not assess performance or make operating decisions based on segment assets.

Information on reportable segment revenue and segment operating income, including a reconciliation of segment operating income to consolidated income from operations, for the respective periods were as follows:

Initial Public Offering

On February 6, 2020, our common stock began trading on The Nasdaq Global Select Market under the symbol “PPD.” On February 10, 2020, we completed our initial public offering (“IPO”) of our common stock at a price to the public of $27.00 per share. We issued and sold 69.0 million shares of common stock in the IPO, including 9.0 million shares of common stock issued pursuant to the full exercise of the underwriters’ option to purchase additional shares. We raised net proceeds of $1,773.0 million through the IPO, after deducting underwriting discounts and other offering expenses totaling $90.0 million.

We used a portion of the net proceeds from the IPO ~~(1)~~ to (i) redeem $550.0 million in aggregate principal amount of unsecured 7.625%/8.375% Senior PIK Toggle Notes (the “Initial HoldCo Notes”), plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon and $5.5 million of redemption premium and ~~(2) to~~(ii) redeem $900.0 million in aggregate principal amount of unsecured 7.75%/8.50% Senior PIK Toggle Notes (the “Additional HoldCo Notes” and, together with the Initial HoldCo Notes, the “HoldCo Notes”), plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon and $9.0 million of redemption premium. The redemption of the HoldCo Notes resulted in a total loss on extinguishment of debt of $50.1 million.

Issuance of New Notes and Redemption of OpCo Notes

On June 5, 2020, we issued $1,200.0 million of unsecured senior notes consisting of (i) $500.0 million aggregate principal amount of 4.625% senior notes due 2025 (the “2025 Notes”) and (ii) $700.0 million aggregate principal amount of 5.0% senior notes due 2028 (the “2028 Notes” and, together with the 2025 Notes, the “New Notes”). We used the proceeds from the issuance of the New Notes to redeem $1,125.0 million in aggregate principal amount of unsecured 6.375% senior notes (the “OpCo Notes”), plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon and a $35.9 million redemption premium. The redemption of the OpCo Notes resulted in a total loss on extinguishment of debt of $43.5 million.

Recent Developments - COVID-19

In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared COVID-19 a global pandemic that has resulted in travel and business disruption and volatile conditions in the capital and credit markets and overall economy. Globally, governments have implemented travel bans, stay at home or total lock-down mandates and other social distancing measures to combat the spread of COVID-19. In response to the global pandemic, we have created a pandemic response committee of company leaders, including our chief medical officer, to help manage our response to the pandemic focused on ~~(1)~~(i) the health and safety of our employees and patients and ~~(2)~~(ii) business continuity, preserving the integrity of the work we do for our customers, including support for vaccines and anti-viral therapies for COVID-19. To implement social distancing measures and maximize work productivity, we have limited personnel in our facilities, with ~~all~~ remote-capable employees throughout our company working ~~remotely in all jurisdictions.~~remotely. We have also significantly limited domestic and international travel of our employees.

To date, the COVID-19 pandemic has impacted our business across both our Clinical Development Services and Laboratory Services segments. ~~This includes~~The impacts include the ability of our employees to visit hospitals and other clinical ~~trial~~research sites to conduct monitoring and other critical site visits and patient recruitment and enrollment activities as part of services offered within our Clinical Development Services segment, as well as a temporary shutdown of our Phase I ~~clinics.~~clinics beginning in March 2020. Furthermore, we have had customers delay new studies and/or pause ongoing studies or certain activities thereof, such as patient recruitment, patient enrollment, site visits and site ~~monitoring. These~~monitoring, impacting our Clinical Development Services segment. Additionally, at the onset of the pandemic, our Laboratory Services segment experienced limited reductions in central lab services due to delays in clinical trial activity that impacted sample volumes.

During the second quarter of 2020, as travel restrictions were lifted and phased reopenings began in jurisdictions in which we operate, we began to reopen a limited number of our offices and also allow business-critical travel to occur, including employee visits to hospitals and other clinical research sites, as well as the activation of new sites. We also began a phased reopening of all of our Phase I clinics. Due to safety measures we implemented shortly following the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, our laboratory facilities have continued to operate at near full capacity during the pandemic. While we saw improvements over the course of the second quarter of 2020 in relation to fewer customers delaying new or ongoing studies, steady improvements in site-based activities and the return of pre-pandemic testing volumes at our central labs, these delays have impacted and will continue to impact the timing and extent to which backlog has and will convert to revenue. ~~Additionally, our Laboratory Services segment has experienced limited reductions in central lab services due to delays in clinical trial activity.~~

In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, we have taken measures to mitigate the impact of the aforementioned factors across both of our ~~segments by leveraging the geographical and operational diversification of our business activities.~~segments. Such mitigation activities include, but are not limited to, (i) winning new ~~authorizations and~~awards for services to help our customers treat or combat the spread of COVID-19 with anti-viral therapies and vaccines, ~~as well as~~which includes more than 85 COVID-19 related awards to date across both of our segments, (ii) the continued adoption of digital and virtual strategies and (iii) cost reduction strategies, ~~we have implemented,~~ including reducing travel and related expenses, limiting increases in employee headcount in certain non-billable areas, voluntary and limited temporary involuntary employee furloughs and reduced working hours. We may also implement other cost mitigation or reduction measures in the future depending on ~~a number of factors related to~~ the progression of the COVID-19 ~~pandemic. In addition, we borrowed $150.0 million under~~pandemic and the resulting impacts to our revolving credit facility as a precautionary measure in order to further strengthen our cash position and to preserve financial flexibility due to the uncertainty in the global credit and capital markets as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.business.

We do not yet know nor can we predict the full extent of the ~~impacts of~~impact the COVID-19 pandemic will have on our business, financial condition, results of operations or the global economy as a whole, as the ultimate impact of the pandemic is highly uncertain and subject to change.While ~~the financial impact from~~ the COVID-19 pandemic has ~~not been material to~~impacted our business and results of operations, ~~as of March 31, 2020, in part~~we have been able to partially offset the financial impact due to the mitigation activities discussed ~~above,~~above. However, the operational and financial ~~impact~~impacts from COVID-19 could ~~become material~~significantly increase in the future due ~~to the significant uncertainty as~~ to the magnitude, continued duration, geographic reach, ongoing impact on the global economy and capital and credit markets, and current travel and other restrictions relating to the COVID-19 pandemic. ~~Additionally,~~In addition, we might not be able to mitigate future impacts as we have done to date. Furthermore, federal, state and local governments have implemented economic and other stimulus measures to support individuals and businesses impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic, and while we ~~intend to utilize~~have utilized such measures where ~~appropriate and~~ applicable, there can be no assurance that such measures will benefit us or otherwise offset any or all of the financial impacts from the COVID-19 pandemic. To date, such measures have not been material to our results of operations.

If the pandemic continues for an extended period or ~~was to worsen~~worsens, such as the recent increase in COVID-19 cases in the United States or a second global wave, and/or governments’ actions to contain the spread of COVID-19 are ineffective, these factors could result in a material negative impact on our business, growth, reputation, prospects, financial condition, results of operations (including components of our financial results), cash flows and liquidity. Such ~~impact~~impacts could include, but isare not limited to, additional customer delays or cancellations of awarded services, ~~customers may reduce their~~reductions in R&D drug development ~~pipeline~~pipelines which could result in lower growth to our industry, additional costs related to restructuring activities, non-cash impairments of goodwill and other long-lived assets, decreases in the value of our investments, loss of hedge accounting and restrictions on our ability to obtain additional financing, if needed, or ~~refinance~~refinancing of our senior secured credit ~~facilities or other debt.~~facilities.

We are closely monitoring the changing landscape with respect to the COVID-19 pandemic and taking actions to manage our business and support our employees, patients and customers. We will continue to evaluate the nature and extent of the impact to our business, results of operations, financial condition and liquidity. For further discussion of the risks related to our business and the COVID-19 pandemic, see Part II, Item 1A, “Risk Factors,” ~~including~~included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Sources of Revenue

Revenue is comprised of direct, third-party pass-through and out-of-pocket revenue from providing services to our customers. Direct revenue represents revenue associated with the direct services provided under our contracts. Third-party pass-through and out-of-pocket revenue (collectively, “indirect revenue”) represents the reimbursement by customers of third-party pass-through and out-of-pocket costs incurred by us under our contracts.

We record the reimbursement of indirect revenue and the related costs incurred as revenue and reimbursed costs on the condensed consolidated statements of operations. These reimbursed costs are included as revenue as we (i) are the principal in the relationship, (ii) are primarily responsible for the services provided by third parties and (iii) significantly integrate the services of the third parties with our own services in delivering a combined output to the customer.

We assess our revenue based on our primary businesses, Clinical Development Services and Laboratory Services. Our Clinical Development Services segment represented ~~81.2%~~80.6% and ~~84.0%~~83.6% of revenue for the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, and 80.9% and 83.8% of revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, with the remainder generated from our Laboratory Services segment.

We have a diverse customer mix, with one customer accounting for approximately 11% of our revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and no one customer accounting for more than 10% of our revenue for the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2019 or the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019. Our top 10 customers accounted for approximately ~~48.7%~~53.6% and ~~47.9%~~45.2% of our revenue for the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, and 51.1% and 46.2% for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Based on the diversity of our customer base, we do not believe we have significant customer concentration risk. We do not have any significant product revenues.

Operating Costs and Expenses

Our operating costs and expenses primarily consist of direct costs, reimbursed costs, selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses and depreciation and amortization.

Direct Costs

Direct costs represent costs for providing services to customers. Direct costs primarily include labor-related costs, such as compensation and benefits for employees providing services, an allocation of facility and information technology costs, supply costs, costs for certain media-related services for patient recruitment, stock-based compensation expense, other overhead costs and offsetting R&D incentive credits. Direct costs typically increase or decrease with changes in revenue and may fluctuate significantly from period to period as a percentage of revenue due to staff labor utilization, project labor mix, the type of services, changes to the timing of work performed and project inefficiencies, among other factors.

Reimbursed Costs

Reimbursed costs include third-party pass-through and out-of-pocket costs which are generally reimbursable by our customers at cost. Third-party pass-through and out-of-pocket costs include, but are not limited to, payments to investigators, payments for the use of third-party technology, shipping costs and travel costs related to the performance of services, among others. Third-party pass-through and out-of-pocket costs are incurred across both of our reportable segments.

Because services associated with reimbursed costs are generally provided by us without profit or mark-up and fluctuate from period to period without being important to our underlying performance over the full term of a contract, these costs do not have a significant impact on our income from operations. While fluctuations from period to period are not meaningful over the full term of a contract, actual and estimated reimbursed costs can impact revenue recognized, consolidated income from operations and segment operating income throughout the duration of a contract.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

SG&A expenses represent costs of business development, administrative and support functions. SG&A expenses primarily include compensation and benefits for employees, costs related to employees performing administrative tasks, stock-based compensation expense, sales, marketing and promotional expenses, employee recruiting and relocation expenses, employee training costs, travel costs, an allocation of facility and information technology costs and other overhead costs.

Depreciation and Amortization

Depreciation and amortization represents the costs charged for our property and equipment and intangible assets. We record depreciation and amortization on property and equipment using the straight-line method, based on the estimated useful lives of the respective assets. We depreciate leasehold improvements over the shorter of the lease term or the estimated useful lives of the improvements. We amortize software developed or obtained for internal use over the estimated useful life of the software or term of the licensing agreement. Amortization expense primarily comes from acquired definite-lived intangible assets. We amortize definite-lived intangible assets using either the straight-line method or sum-of-the-years digits method over the estimated useful lives of the assets.

How We Assess the Performance of Our Business

We manage and assess our business based on segment performance and allocate resources utilizing segment revenues and segment operating income. We also assess the performance of our reported consolidated business using a number of metrics including backlog and net authorizations. Historically, we have assessed backlog and net authorizations on a basis which excluded indirect revenues and the impact of Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”) on direct revenue (“~~Backlog and Net Authorizations -~~ Historical Basis”). ~~During~~Starting in the first quarter of 2020, we began to assess backlog and net authorizations on an ASC 606 ~~direct revenue basis (“Backlog and Net Authorizations - Direct Basis”) and on an ASC 606~~ total direct and indirect revenue basis (“Backlog and Net Authorizations - ~~Direct and Indirect~~ASC 606 Basis”). Our discussion of backlog and net authorizations below is applicable to ~~all~~both of the aforementioned backlog and net authorization metrics.

Our backlog represents anticipated revenue for work not yet completed or performed (i) under signed contracts, letters of intent and, in some cases, awards that are supported by other forms of written communication and (ii) where there is sufficient or reasonable certainty about the customer’s ability and intent to fund and commence the services within six months.

Backlog and backlog conversion (defined as ~~the respective~~ quarterly revenue for the period divided by opening backlog for that period) vary from period to period depending upon new authorizations, contract modifications, cancellations and the amount of revenue recognized under existing contracts. We adjust backlog for foreign currency fluctuations and exclude from backlog revenue that has been recognized as revenue in our statements of operations.

Although an increase in backlog will generally result in an increase in future revenue to be recognized over time (depending on future contract modifications, contract cancellations and other adjustments), an increase in backlog at a particular point in time does not necessarily correspond to an increase in revenue during a particular period. The timing and extent to which backlog will result in revenue depends on many factors, including the timing of commencement of work, the rate at which we perform services, scope changes, cancellations, delays, receipt of regulatory approvals and the nature, duration, size, complexity and phase of the studies. Our contracts generally have terms ranging from several months to several years. In addition, delayed projects remain in backlog unless they are canceled.

As noted elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, we have had customers delay new studies and/or pause ongoing studies or certain activities thereof, such as patient recruitment, patient enrollment, site visits and site monitoring. These delays have impacted and will continue to impact the timing and extent to which backlog has and will convert to revenue. We have not adjusted backlog to remove the backlog associated with these studies as our customers for these studies have not canceled or notified us of their intent to cancel these studies and because we cannot estimate the length of delay.As a result of these and other factors, our backlog might not be a reliable indicator of future revenue and we might not realize all or any part of the revenue from the authorizations in backlog as of any point in time. Once work begins, we recognize revenue over the life of the contract ~~based on our performance of~~as we perform services under such contract. We have included new business awards associated with COVID-19 in our net authorizations and backlog.

We add new authorizations to backlog based on the aforementioned criteria for backlog. Net authorizations represent new business awards, net of award or contract modifications, contract cancellations, foreign currency fluctuations and other adjustments. New authorizations vary from period to period depending on numerous factors, including customer authorization volume, sales performance and overall health of the biopharmaceutical industry, among others. New authorizations have varied and will continue to vary significantly from quarter to quarter and from year to year. In addition to net authorizations, we also assess net book-to-bill, which represents the amount of net authorizations for the period divided by ~~the~~ revenue recognized in that period.

The increase in net authorizations and backlog in 2020 for ~~all~~the metrics above as compared to the same period in the prior year was primarily due to a higher win rate on competitive decisions (which represents the total dollar amount of new business on which we bid), ~~partially offset by unfavorable~~new business awards related to the COVID-19 pandemic and favorable net foreign currency fluctuations, ~~and~~partially offset by cancellations.

Acquisitions

On September 3, 2019, we acquired 100% of the issued and outstanding equity of Synarc, Inc. (“Synarc”), the global site network of Bioclinica, Inc., expanding our global footprint into China and Latin America and expanding ~~its~~our central nervous system offering in the United States. Additionally, on July 1, 2019, we acquired 100% of the issued and outstanding equity of Medimix International (“Medimix”), a global technology company that provides real-world evidence insights and information to the pharmaceutical, diagnostic and medical device industries. See Note 4, “Business Combinations,” to our condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for additional information.

Incremental Public Company Expenses

As a new public company, we have and will incur additional expenses on an ongoing basis that we did not incur as a private company. Those costs include additional director and officer liability insurance expenses, as well as third-party and internal resources related to accounting, auditing, Sarbanes-Oxley Act compliance, legal, investor and public relations expenses and additional stock-based compensation expense as we align our long-term incentive plan with other comparable public company plans. These costs are expected to generally be SG&A expenses.

Results of Operations

We have included the results of operations of acquired companies in our condensed consolidated results of operations from the date of their respective acquisitions, which impacts the comparability of our results of operations when comparing results for the three and six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020 to the three and six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2019. We have noted in the discussion below, to the extent meaningful and quantifiable, the impact on the comparability of our condensed consolidated results of operations to prior year results due to the inclusion of acquired companies when comparing the three and six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020 to the three and six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2019.

During the first quarter of 2020, our Chief Operating Decision Maker began assessing performance and making resource allocation decisions based on total segment revenue, including direct and indirect revenue, and segment operating income, including reimbursed costs. Previously, certain revenue amounts were not allocated to segments, whereas following the change, all revenue and reimbursed costs are allocated to the respective segment. As a result, we have updated our segment presentation and all prior period information has been recast to reflect the change in the measurement of segment performance measures.

Segment Revenue

Laboratory Services’ revenue was $397.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020, an increase of $79.7 million as compared to the same period in 2019. Revenue increased from organic volume growth across all our laboratory services in part due to higher opening backlog at the beginning of the year and overall growth in new business awards during 2020, including those associated with COVID-19 work. The higher opening backlog was primarily due to increased net authorizations across all of our labs businesses in 2019.

Segment Direct Costs

Laboratory Services’ direct costs were $176.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020, an increase of $29.1 million as compared to the same period in 2019. The increase in direct costs was primarily due to (i) a $19.6 million increase from growth in employee headcount to support current growth in revenue as well as compensation increases and (ii) an $8.9 million increase in laboratory supply costs associated with the growth in revenue.

Segment Reimbursed Costs

Laboratory Services’ reimbursed costs were $52.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020, an increase of $18.6 million as compared to the same period in 2019. Reimbursed costs increased primarily due to the increase in revenue and our overall growth, as well as higher shipping costs and the general timing of costs incurred across our portfolio of work.

Segment SG&A Expenses

Laboratory Services’ SG&A expenses were $43.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020, an increase of $4.7 million as compared to the same period in 2019. The increase in SG&A expenses was primarily due to a $5.6 million increase from growth in employee headcount to support current growth in revenue as well as compensation increases.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Overview

We assess our liquidity in terms of our ability to generate adequate amounts of cash to meet current and future needs. Our expected primary cash uses on a short-term and long-term basis are for repayment of debt, interest payments, working capital, capital expenditures, geographic or service offering expansion, acquisitions, investments and other general corporate purposes. We have historically funded our operations with cash flows from ~~operations. We have historically~~operations and used long-term debt and cash on hand to fund acquisitions and make special cash dividends or distributions to our stockholders. We do not expect to declare any dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future. We hold our cash balances in the United States and numerous locations throughout the rest of the world.

While we have not seen a significant impact to our liquidity and capital resources as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic to date, we continue to monitor and assess the impact and have already taken certain measures to preserve those resources. InFor example, in June 2020, we issued $1,200.0 million of New Notes, and used the proceeds to redeem our previously outstanding OpCo Notes. We expect this transaction to lower our interest expense and cash paid for interest in the future. Additionally, in March 2020, we borrowed $150.0 million under our revolving credit facility as a precautionary measure in order to further strengthen our cash position and to preserve financial flexibility due to the uncertainty in the global markets as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. In June 2020, we repaid the $150.0 million borrowed under the revolving credit facility, using cash on hand. In addition, we may implement future measures to preserve or increase cash on-hand and create financial flexibility. For example, we may look to obtain additional financing or engage in refinancing our variable rate long-term ~~debt.~~debt outstanding under our senior secured credit facilities. However, due to the ongoing impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the capital and credit markets, we might not be able to successfully obtain additional financing or refinancing of our senior secured credit facilities ~~or other debt~~ on reasonable terms and within a reasonable time period acceptable to us, or at all.

The following table presents key measures of our liquidity on the dates set forth below:


(dollars in thousands)	March 31, 2020		December 31, 2019		June 30, 2020		December 31, 2019
Cash and cash equivalents:
Cash held in the United States	$	461,457	$	135,917	$	343,485	$	135,917
Cash held in foreign locations	276,907		209,270		349,550		209,270

Revolving Credit Facility availability (net of letters of credit)	$	148,370	$	298,370	$	298,370	$	298,370

As a result of our recapitalization in 2017, we incurred certain future obligations associated with potential additional recapitalization consideration. We do not expect the payment of the recapitalization investment portfolio liability to impact our future liquidity or capital resources as the right for the pre-closing holders to receive any such payment depends upon receipt of future cash proceeds from the applicable portion of the investment portfolio. We have classified in long-term liabilities the portion of the investment portfolio we estimate to be payable, net of taxes and other expenses, to the pre-closing holders. Future payments will be required to be made, if and when, cash proceeds are received and are payable under the recapitalization transaction merger agreement. During the three and six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020 and 2019, we did not make any cash distributions related to the recapitalization investment portfolio liability. See Note 2, “Recapitalization Transaction,” of our audited consolidated financial statements included in our ~~2019 Annual Report on~~May 2020 Form ~~10-K~~8-K for additional information.

We expect to continue funding our operations from existing cash, cash flows from operations and, ~~from cash borrowed~~if necessary or appropriate, borrowings under our revolving credit ~~facility.~~facility, which is currently undrawn. We believe that these sources of liquidity will be sufficient to fund our operations and service our debt and interest for the foreseeable future, as well as address impacts from the COVID-19 pandemic. From time to time, we evaluate potential acquisitions, investments and other growth and strategic opportunities that might require use of existing cash, borrowings under our revolving credit facility or additional long-term financing. We may seek to take advantage of market opportunities to refinance existing variable rate debt instruments with new debt instruments at interest rates, maturities and terms we deem attractive. We may also, from time to time at our sole discretion, purchase, redeem or retire our existing debt instruments, through tender offers, in privately negotiated or open market transactions, or otherwise.

While we believe we have sufficient liquidity to fund our operations for the foreseeable future, our sources of liquidity could be affected by factors described above related to the COVID-19 pandemic and in Part II, Item 1A, “Risk Factors,” included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, as well as factors described under “Indemnification and Insurance,” within Part I, Item 1, “Business,” Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors,” within Part II, Item 7, “Contractual Obligations and Commercial Commitments,” “Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” and Part II, Item 7A, “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk,” of our ~~2019~~ Annual Report on Form ~~10-K.~~10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, as superseded by, and solely to the extent set forth in, our May 2020 Form 8-K.

Indebtedness

On June 5, 2020, Jaguar Holding Company II and PPD Development, L.P. (collectively, the “Issuers”), issued in a private placement the 2025 Notes and 2028 Notes. The 2025 Notes mature on June 15, 2025, and the 2028 Notes mature on June 15, 2028. Interest on the New Notes is payable semi-annually on June 15 and December 15 of each year. The Issuers can redeem the New Notes, at their option, in whole at any time or in part from time to time, upon notice, at the various redemption prices (expressed as a percentage of principal amount), plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the redemption date plus a “make-whole” premium. The New Notes do not have registration rights. See Note 6, “Long-term Debt and Finance Lease Obligations,” to our condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for additional information on the New Notes.

As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020, we had total long-term debt and finance lease obligations outstanding of approximately ~~$4.4 billion. There~~$4,307.5 million. Other than the customary covenants and default provisions related to the issuance of the New Notes, there were no changes to the debt covenants or default provisions related to our outstanding debt ~~arrangements~~under the credit agreement governing our senior secured credit facilities (the “Credit Agreement”) or other obligations during the first ~~quarter~~six months of 2020. ~~However, as~~In June 2020, we ~~had borrowings~~repaid in full the outstanding ~~under~~balance of our revolving credit facility ~~as of March 31, 2020,~~and therefore we ~~are~~were not subject to a net secured leverage ratio test, pursuant to the credit agreement governing our senior secured credit facilities. The aforementioned credit agreement subjects us to a maximum permitted total net secured leverage ratio of 5.00:1.00 on a quarterly basis, calculated with respect to Consolidated EBITDA (asas defined in the ~~credit agreement), when we have outstanding obligations under our revolving credit facility (excluding $25.0 million~~Credit Agreement, as of non-cash collateralized letters of credit) exceeding 30% of the total revolving credit facility commitments. As of March 31, 2020, our total net secured leverage ratio was 3.1x. A breach of such total net leverage ratio test could prevent us from making additional borrowings under our revolving credit facility and trigger required repayment of our revolving credit facility and term loan outstanding under our credit agreement.June 30, 2020. We were in compliance with all covenants for all long-term debt arrangements as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019.

Cash Flows


Cash flows from operating activities	Three Months Ended March 31,				Six Months Ended June 30,
(dollars in thousands)	2020		2019		2020		2019
Net cash provided by operating activities	$	19,373	$	13,595	$	130,777	$	117,925

The increase in operating cash flows of ~~$5.8~~$12.9 million was due to an ~~$82.0~~$85.1 million increase in net ~~loss~~income and non-cash reconciling items, partially offset by a ~~$76.2~~$72.2 million decrease in cash from the changes in operating assets and liabilities. The change in operating assets and liabilities was primarily due to period over period fluctuations in the timing of collections and payments, with the use of cash for net accounts receivable (defined as the sum of period-end balances of accounts receivable and unbilled services net of unearned revenue) and income taxes being unfavorable and the source of cash from ~~(i)~~prepaid expenses and other current assets and accounts payable, accrued expenses and other liabilities ~~(ii) prepaid expenses and other current assets and (iii) other assets~~ being favorable.

The increase in net ~~loss~~income and non-cash reconciling items was primarily due to (i) the overall growth of the business, (ii) our gain on investments, (iii) a loss on the extinguishment of debt related to the redemption of the HoldCo and OpCo Notes ~~(ii) an increase in the loss on investments recorded in the current period as compared to the same period in the prior year~~ and ~~(iii) non-cash losses on interest rate swaps.~~(iv) deferred income tax expense.

The change in the use of cash for net accounts receivable of ~~$111.5~~$123.5 million for the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020 was largely due to the growth in revenue during the first ~~quarter~~six months of 2020, as well as the timing in the receipt of collections and contractual billings under our contracts. Other changes to cash flows from operating activities include a ~~$22.4~~$21.6 million increase in cash paid for interest and a ~~$3.9~~$7.9 million net decrease in cash paid for income taxes during the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020 as compared to the same period in 2019. Cash paid for interest increased primarily due to ~~payment~~payments of accrued interest on the HoldCo Notes and OpCo Notes at the time of ~~redemption.~~redemption and interest paid on our interest rate swaps. This increase in cash paid for ~~HoldCo Notes~~ interest was partially offset by a decrease in cash paid for interest on our term loan due to a lower interest rate for the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020. We expect our cash paid for interest to decrease going forward due to the redemption of the HoldCo Notes and lower interest rate on our New Notes as compared to the redeemed OpCo Notes. Cash paid for income taxes decreased primarily as a result of the deferral of U.S. tax payments as permitted by the CARES Act and increased U.S. and foreign tax refunds.

Net cash used in investing activities	$	(43,220	)	$	(51,390	)	$	(68,762	)	$	(84,346	)

The decrease in cash used during the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020 was primarily due to cash paid for investments in unconsolidated affiliates in the same period in the prior year which did not occur in the current year, partially offset by an increase in purchases of property and equipment in the current year. Cash paid for investments in unconsolidated affiliates for the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2019 was ~~$20.0~~$30.0 million. ~~There were no investments in unconsolidated affiliates for the three months ended March 31, 2020.~~ Cash paid for property and equipment was ~~$42.8~~$68.5 million and ~~$24.8~~$47.4 million for the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The increase in cash paid for property and equipment was primarily due to the timing of payments and year over year growth in the ~~business.~~business, including investments in our Laboratory Services segment.

During the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020, cash provided by financing activities was primarily due to cash proceeds of ~~$1,774.9~~$1,773.0 million from our IPO, net of IPO costs ~~paid to date.~~paid. A portion of the IPO net proceeds were used to redeem our HoldCo Notes, which included $1,450.0 million of principal and a $14.5 million redemption premium. Additionally, in ~~March~~June 2020, we ~~borrowed $150.0~~issued $1,200.0 million of New Notes, which was used to redeem our OpCo Notes, including $1,125.0 million of principal and a $35.9 million redemption premium. We used cash of $17.2 million for payments of debt issuance costs associated with the issuance of the New Notes.

During the six months ended June 30, 2019, cash used in financing activities was primarily due to a special cash dividend paid to our stockholders, partially offset by the cash proceeds received from ~~our revolving credit facility.~~

the issuance of $891.0 million of Additional HoldCo Notes. We used cash of $27.6 million for payments of debt issuance and debt modification costs associated with the issuance of the Additional HoldCo Notes and modification of the Initial HoldCo Notes.

Contractual Obligations and Commercial Commitments

~~Other than the~~Our contractual obligations and commercial commitments have been updated for our redemption of the OpCo Notes and HoldCo Notes and our ~~borrowing under~~issuance of the New Notes. Other than those changes to our ~~revolving credit facility,~~long-term debt arrangements, there have been no material changes, outside of the ordinary course of business, to our contractual obligations and commercial commitments as previously disclosed in our ~~2019~~ Annual Report on Form ~~10-K.~~10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.

As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020, future minimum payments on all our long-term debt, including interest, for the remainder of 2020, and years subsequent to December 31, 2020 were as follows:

We may be required to make mandatory prepayments of principal on the term loan outstanding under our senior secured credit facilities in future years based on our cash flows in those years. Future interest expense on our indebtedness is calculated assuming a blended rate of ~~4.3%~~3.9%. The table above assumes that the amounts will remain outstanding until maturity, with minimum payments occurring as currently scheduled and no future borrowings, and does not include the impact of our interest rate swaps entered into during the first quarter of 2020.

Off-balance Sheet Arrangements

We have no off-balance sheet arrangements. Off-balance sheet arrangements represent any transaction, agreement or other contractual arrangement involving an unconsolidated entity under which we have guarantee contracts, retained or contingent interests in transferred assets, any obligation under derivative instruments classified as equity or any obligation arising out of material variable interests that serves as credit, liquidity or market risk support for such interest.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our accounting policies are more fully described in Note 1, “Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies,” of our ~~2019 Annual Report on~~May 2020 Form ~~10-K.~~8-K. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. We monitor estimates and assumptions on a continuous basis and update these estimates and assumptions as facts and circumstances change and new information is obtained, including facts and circumstances related to the COVID-19 pandemic. Actual results could differ from those estimates and assumptions due to, among other things, the ~~increased~~ impacts caused by the COVID-19 pandemic.

We perform our annual impairment test of goodwill during the fourth quarter of each year, or more frequently if impairment indicators arise, which requires significant judgment. As of the date of our 2019 annual goodwill impairment test, of our nine reporting units with goodwill allocated, one reporting unit’s estimate of the fair value did not exceed its respective carrying value by a substantial margin. This reporting unit had recorded goodwill of $30.0 million as of the goodwill impairment testing date. The percentage by which the reporting unit’s estimated fair value exceeded carrying value was 22.0%. Certain portions of this reporting unit were negatively impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic and to the extent that the impacts are prolonged or that they result in a change to long-term outlook, such could trigger an impairment to this reporting unit in the future.

Given the present uncertainty surrounding the global economy due to the COVID-19 pandemic, including but not limited to stock price volatility of the overall market, the volatility of our stock price as well as that of our competitors and current and future impacts to our operations from the COVID-19 pandemic, it is possible that we could experience a non-cash impairment loss of a portion of our goodwill or other long-lived assets in the future. While no impairment charges were recorded during the three or six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020, future goodwill or other long-lived asset impairment, if any, could have a material impact on our results of ~~operations or financial condition.~~operations.

We discussed the accounting policies that we believe are most critical to the portrayal of our results of operations

and financial condition and require management’s most difficult, subjective and complex judgments in Part II, Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” in our ~~2019~~ Annual Report on Form ~~10-K.~~10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, as superseded by, and solely to the extent set forth in, our May 2020 Form 8-K. There were no significant changes to our critical accounting policies and estimates during the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020.

Recently Adopted Accounting Standard

A recently adopted accounting standard relevant to our condensed consolidated financial statements is described more fully in the “Recently Adopted Accounting Standard” section in Note 1, “Basis of Presentation,” to our condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

During the three and six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020, there were no material changes to our quantitative and qualitative disclosures about market risk as compared to the quantitative and qualitative disclosures about market risk described in our ~~2019~~ Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, other than the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on the global economy and overall capital and credit markets. Additionally, in February 2020, we considered refinancing certain portions of our outstanding debt with new variable rate debt and, in anticipation thereof, we entered into three new variable to fixed interest rate swaps to hedge future interest rate exposure. The three swaps have a notional value of $3.5 billion, with an effective date of March 31, 2020 and a termination date of March 31, 2025. In March 2020, we entered into a fixed to variable interest rate swap with a notional value of $0.5 billion, with identical effective and termination dates, that offset one of the three February 2020 variable to fixed interest rate swaps, as we had not yet entered into the new variable rate debt structure. See Note 6, “Long-term Debt and Finance Lease Obligations” and Note 8, “Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities,” to our condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for additional information on impacts to our market risks.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“Exchange Act”)) as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Based on such evaluation, our CEO and CFO have concluded that as of such date, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level.

In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in management’s evaluation pursuant to Rules 13a-15(d) or 15d-15(d) of the Exchange Act during the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

We are party to legal proceedings incidental to our business. While our management currently believes the ultimate outcome of these proceedings, individually and in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse effect on our condensed consolidated financial statements, all litigation is subject to inherent uncertainties. Were an unfavorable ruling to occur, there exists the possibility of a material adverse impact on our financial condition and results of operations.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

There have been no significant changes from the risk factors previously disclosed in our Annual Report on

Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 except for as disclosed below. Refer to Part 1, Item 1A, “Risk Factors,” of our ~~2019~~ Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 for a detailed discussion of risk factors affecting us.

Our operations might be affected by the occurrence of a natural ~~disaster,~~disasters, pandemics, such as the COVID-19 pandemic, or other catastrophic events.

We depend on our customers, investigators, laboratories and other facilities for the continued operation of our business. While we maintain disaster recovery and business continuity plans, they might not adequately protect us. Despite any precautions we take for natural disasters or other catastrophic events, these events, including terrorist ~~attack,~~attacks, hurricanes, fires, floods, ice and snowstorms and pandemics, such as the ~~novel coronavirus disease (the “COVID-19 pandemic”),~~COVID-19 pandemic, may result in interruptions in our ability to provide services to our customers. Disruptions in the infrastructure, laboratory, clinic or office closures, mandatory stay at home orders or other social distancing measures caused by events such as natural disasters, or other “acts of god,” the outbreak of war, the escalation of hostilities and acts of terrorism or pandemics, such as the COVID-19 pandemic, ~~or other “acts of god,”~~ particularly involving countries and cities in which we have laboratories, clinics or offices, could adversely affect our businesses. Although we carry business interruption insurance policies and typically have provisions in our contracts that protect us from certain events, our coverage might not respond or be adequate to compensate us for all losses that may occur, including those relating to the COVID-19 pandemic. Any natural disaster or catastrophic event, such as the COVID-19 pandemic, affecting us or our customers, investigators or payers could have a significant negative impact on our operations or financial performance.

~~As of the~~To date, ~~of filing this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q,~~ the COVID-19 pandemic has impacted our ~~ability to carry out critical services relating to~~business across both our ~~clinical studies on a timely basis, including~~Clinical Development Services and Laboratory Services segments. The impacts include the ability of our employees to visit hospitals and other clinical ~~trial~~research sites to conduct monitoring and other critical site visits and patient recruitment and enrollment activities as part of services offered within our Clinical Development Services segment, as well as a temporary shutdown of our Phase I ~~clinics. Additionally, our Laboratory Services segment has experienced limited reductions~~clinics beginning in ~~central lab services due to delays in clinical trial activity.~~March 2020. Furthermore, we have had customers delay new studies and/or pause ongoing studies or certain activities thereof, such as patient recruitment, patient enrollment, site visits and site ~~monitoring. These~~monitoring, impacting our Clinical Development Services segment. Additionally, at the onset of the pandemic, our Laboratory Services segment experienced limited reductions in central lab services due to delays in clinical trial activity that impacted sample volumes.

During the second quarter of 2020, as travel restrictions were lifted and phased reopenings began in jurisdictions in which we operate, we began to reopen a limited number of our offices and also allow business-critical travel to occur, including employee visits to hospitals and other clinical research sites, as well as the activation of new sites. We also began a phased reopening of all of our Phase I clinics. Due to safety measures we implemented shortly following the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, our laboratory facilities continued to operate at near full capacity during the pandemic. While we saw improvements over the course of the second quarter of 2020 in relation to fewer customers delaying new or ongoing studies, steady improvements in site-based activities and the return of pre-pandemic testing volumes at our central labs, these delays have impacted and will continue to impact the timing and extent to which backlog has and will convert to revenue.

We do not yet know nor can we predict the full extent of the ~~impacts of~~impact the COVID-19 pandemic will have on our business, results of operations, financial condition or the global economy as a whole, as the ultimate impact of the pandemic is highly uncertain and subject to change. While the ~~financial impact from the~~ COVID-19 pandemic has ~~not been material to~~impacted our business and results of operations, ~~as of March 31, 2020, in part~~we have been able to partially offset the financial impact due to the mitigation activities discussed elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form ~~10-Q,~~10-Q. However, the operational and financial ~~impact~~impacts from COVID-19 could ~~become material~~significantly increase in the future due ~~to the significant uncertainty as~~ to the magnitude, continued duration, geographic reach, ongoing impact on the global economy and capital and credit markets, and current travel and other restrictions relating to the COVID-19 pandemic. ~~Additionally,~~In addition, we might not be able to mitigate future impacts as we have done to date.

Furthermore, federal, state and local governments have implemented economic and other stimulus measures to support individuals and businesses impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic, and while we ~~intend to utilize~~have utilized such measures where ~~appropriate and~~ applicable there can be no assurance that such measures will benefit us or otherwise offset any or all of the financial impacts from the COVID-19 pandemic. To date, such measures have not been material to our results of operations.

If the pandemic continues for an extended period or ~~was to worsen~~worsens, such as the recent increase of COVID-19 cases in the United States or a second global wave and/or governments’ actions to contain the spread of COVID-19 were to be ineffective, these factors could result in a material negative impact on our business, growth, reputation, prospects, financial condition, results of operations (including components of our financial results), cash flows and liquidity. Such ~~impact~~impacts could include, but isare not limited to, additional customer delays or cancellations of awarded services, ~~customers may reduce their R&D~~reductions in research and development drug development ~~pipeline~~pipelines which could result in lower growth to the ~~CRO~~clinical research organization industry, additional costs related to restructuring activities, non-cash impairments of goodwill and other long-lived assets, decreases in the value of our investments, loss of hedge accounting and restrictions on our ability to obtain additional financing, if needed, or ~~refinance~~refinancing of our senior secured credit ~~facilities or other debt.~~facilities.

Our business is subject to international and U.S. economic, currency, political and other risks, including those caused by the ~~global~~ COVID-19 pandemic, that could negatively affect our business, results of operations, financial condition and/or cash flows.

We provide services globally and have business operations in numerous countries throughout the world. Because we provide our services worldwide, our business is subject to risks associated with doing business internationally, including risks associated with a global pandemic such as the COVID-19 pandemic. ~~Our revenue~~Revenue from our non-U.S. operations represented approximately 45.9% of our revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 47.1% of our revenue for the year ended December 31, 2019. We anticipate that we will continue to perform a significant portion of our services through our international operations. Our U.S. and international operations are subject to ~~risk~~risks and uncertainties inherent in operating in these regions, including:

conducting a clinical trial in multiple countries is complex, and issues in one country can affect the progress of the trial in other countries and result in delays or cancellation of contracts, including delays and other issues caused by the COVID-19 pandemic;

the United States or foreign countries could enact legislation or impose regulations, including unfavorable labor regulations, tax policies or economic sanctions, that could have an adverse effect on our ability to conduct business in or expatriate profits from the countries in which we operate;

the complexities of operating within multiple tax jurisdictions, including potentially negative consequences from changes in tax laws or from current and future tax examinations;

foreign countries are expanding or might expand their regulatory framework with respect to patient informed consent or other aspects of the conduct of clinical trials, which could delay or inhibit our ability to conduct trials in such countries, including changes that may be enacted or result from the COVID-19 pandemic;

the regulatory or judicial authorities of foreign countries might not enforce legal rights and recognize business procedures in a manner to which we are accustomed or would reasonably expect;

changes in political and economic conditions might lead to changes in the business environment in which we operate, such as the current changes caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, including those to protect the general population and patient safety in clinical trials;

actual or perceived risk of infection relating to COVID-19 or otherwise might impact the willingness of patients to enroll in clinical trials and to visit clinics, hospitals and other clinical research sites for procedures associated with the conduct of clinical trials, which in turn could have an adverse effect on our ability to conduct business in relevant countries and regions;

changes in foreign currency exchange rates, including the impact of contractual provisions that shift the risk of unfavorable movement in certain exchange rates to us;

potential violations of existing or newly enacted laws may cause difficulties in staffing and managing international operations;

customers in foreign countries may have longer payment cycles, and it may be more difficult to collect receivables in those countries;

political unrest could interrupt our services, endanger our personnel or cause project delays or loss of clinical trial material or results; and

any failure by us to comply with foreign regulations or restrictions or become aware of and acknowledge changes in foreign regulations or restrictions, ~~which could result in the delay of a clinical trial,~~ including changes in foreign regulations or restrictions due to the COVID-19 ~~pandemic.~~pandemic, which could result in the delay of a clinical trial.

These risks and uncertainties could negatively impact our ability to, among other things, perform large, global projects for our customers. Furthermore, our ability to manage these risks and uncertainties could be affected by U.S. laws and could have an adverse impact on our business, results of operations, financial condition and/or cash flows.

Difficult and volatile conditions in the capital and credit markets and in the overall economy, including those caused by the ~~global~~ COVID-19 pandemic, could materially adversely affect our business, financial position, results of operations and/or cash flows.

Our business, financial position, results of operations and/or cash flows could be materially adversely affected by difficult conditions and volatility in the capital and credit markets and changes in national or global economic conditions including, but not limited to, inflation, interest rates, the negative impacts caused by pandemics, including the COVID-19 pandemic, and the effects of governmental initiatives to manage economic conditions. Difficult conditions in these markets and the overall economy affect our business and operations in a number of ways. For example:

as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, customers may delay or cancel clinical trials (i) to protect patient safety, (ii) as a result of government restrictions, (iii) to limit impacts on healthcare systems and (iv) due to concerns regarding the ability of hospitals and other clinical ~~trial~~research sites to conduct clinical trials safely, efficiently and effectively;

if a significant percentage of our workforce is unable to work, including because of illness, or travel or government restrictions in connection with the COVID-19 pandemic, our operations may be negatively impacted;

as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, we ~~have~~ temporarily ~~shutdown~~shut down our Phase I clinics beginning in March 2020 and have only recently begun a phased reopening of such clinics. Depending on the future duration, severity and impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic, we may have to ~~extend the shutdown~~again shut down one or all of our Phase I clinics and also ~~shutdown~~shut down (or delay reopening) one or more of our laboratories, other clinics or offices due to patient safety, government restrictions, illness or other impacts in connection with the COVID-19 pandemic;

market conditions, including those caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, could result in our key customers experiencing financial difficulties and/or electing to limit spending or delay payment of invoices, or become unable to pay invoices, which in turn could result in decreased revenues, cash flows and earnings for us;

under difficult market conditions there can be no assurance that borrowings under our senior secured credit facilities would be available or sufficient, and in such a case, we might not be able to successfully obtain additional financing or refinancing of our senior secured credit facilities ~~or other debt~~ on reasonable terms and within a reasonable time period acceptable to us, or at all, ~~and such~~which could also impact our hedge accounting on our variable rate debt; and

in order to respond to market conditions, we may need to seek waivers of various provisions in the credit agreement governing our senior secured credit facilities, and we might not be able to obtain such waivers on reasonable terms, if at all.

If we are unable to recruit, retain and motivate key personnel, our business could be adversely affected.

Our success depends on the collective performance, contribution and expertise of our senior management team and other key personnel throughout our businesses, including qualified management, professional, operational, scientific, technical and business development personnel. There is significant competition for qualified personnel in the biopharmaceutical and related services industries, particularly personnel with advanced degrees and those with significant experience and expertise. The loss of any key executive, orincluding if he or she becomes seriously ill with COVID-19 or otherwise, or our inability to continue to recruit, retain and motivate key personnel and replace departed personnel in a timely fashion, may adversely impact our ability to compete effectively and grow our business and negatively affect our ability to meet our ~~short~~short- and long-term financial and operational objectives.

We depend on third parties for critical goods and support services.

We depend on third parties for a variety of goods and support services that are critical to us. These third-party providers include, but are not limited to, software and other technology providers, ~~third-party~~ transportation and travel providers, suppliers of study drugs for clinical trials, couriers, customs brokers, drug depots and distributors, suppliers of licensing agreements, investigator meeting planners, suppliers of kits, reagents, contractors and other supplies used by our laboratory segments and equipment maintenance providers. The failure of any of these third parties to adequately provide goods or services to us or to comply with relevant laws and regulations could have a material adverse effect on our reputation, business, results of operations, financial condition and/or cash flows. While we have not seen an adverse impact from the COVID-19 pandemic on the third parties that we rely on to provide goods and services, there can be no guarantee that a significant impact to our third-party providers will not occur in the future.

Additionally, during~~million prior to our initial public offering.
