Description of Business | ||||||||||
Insperity, Inc., formerly named Administaff, Inc. (“Insperity” or “we”, “our”, and “us”) provides an array of human resources (“HR”) and business solutions designed to help improve business performance. Our name change, which was effective March 3, 2011, reflects our evolution over the past 27 years from a professional employer organization (“PEO”), an industry we pioneered, to our current position as a comprehensive business performance solutions provider. We were organized as a corporation in 1986 and have provided PEO services since inception. | ||||||||||
Our most comprehensive HR business offering is provided through our PEO services, known as Workforce Optimization® solution, which encompasses a broad range of human resources functions, including payroll and employment administration, employee benefits, workers’ compensation, government compliance, performance management, and training and development services. | ||||||||||
In addition to Workforce Optimization, we offer Human Capital Management, Payroll Services, Time and Attendance, Performance Management, Organizational Planning, Recruiting Services, Employment Screening, Financial Services, Expense Management, Retirement Services and Insurance Services, (collectively “Adjacent Businesses”), many of which are offered via desktop applications and software as a service delivery models. These other products or services are offered separately, as a bundle, or along with Workforce Optimization. | ||||||||||
We provide our Workforce Optimization solution by entering into a co-employment relationship with our clients, under which Insperity and its clients each take responsibility for certain portions of the employer-employee relationship. Insperity and its clients designate each party’s responsibilities through its Client Services Agreement (“CSA”), under which Insperity becomes the employer of the employees who work at the client’s location (“worksite employees”) for most administrative and regulatory purposes. | ||||||||||
As a co-employer of its worksite employees, we assume many of the rights and obligations associated with being an employer. We enter into an employment agreement with each worksite employee, thereby maintaining a variety of employer rights, including the right to hire or terminate employees, the right to evaluate employee qualifications or performance, and the right to establish employee compensation levels. Typically, Insperity only exercises these rights in consultation with its clients or when necessary to ensure regulatory compliance. The responsibilities associated with our role as employer include the following obligations with regard to our worksite employees: (i) to compensate its worksite employees through wages and salaries; (ii) to pay the employer portion of payroll-related taxes; (iii) to withhold and remit (where applicable) the employee portion of payroll-related taxes; (iv) to provide employee benefit programs; and (v) to provide workers’ compensation insurance coverage. | ||||||||||
In addition to our assumption of employer status for our worksite employees, our Workforce Optimization solution also includes other human resources functions for our clients to support the effective and efficient use of personnel in their business operations. To provide these functions, we maintain a significant staff of professionals trained in a wide variety of human resources functions, including employee training, employee recruiting, employee performance management, employee compensation, and employer liability management. These professionals interact and consult with clients on a daily basis to help identify each client’s service requirements and to ensure that we are providing appropriate and timely personnel management services. | ||||||||||
We provide our Workforce Optimization solution to small and medium-sized businesses in strategically selected markets throughout the United States. Significant markets include the following: | ||||||||||

Total | 100 | % | 100 | % | 100 | % | ||||
Revenue and Direct Cost Recognition | ||||||||||
We account for our Workforce Optimization revenues in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 605-45, Revenue Recognition, Principal Agent Considerations. Our Workforce Optimization revenues are derived from our gross billings, which are based on (i) the payroll cost of its worksite employees; and (ii) a markup computed as a percentage of the payroll cost. The gross billings are invoiced concurrently with each periodic payroll of its worksite employees. Revenues, which exclude the payroll cost component of gross billings and therefore consist solely of markup, are recognized ratably over the payroll period as worksite employees perform their service at the client worksite. Revenues that have been recognized but not invoiced are included in unbilled accounts receivable on our Consolidated Balance Sheets. | ||||||||||
In determining the pricing of the markup component of the gross billings, we take into consideration our estimates of the costs directly associated with our worksite employees, including payroll taxes, benefits and workers’ compensation costs, plus an acceptable gross profit margin. As a result, our operating results are significantly impacted by our ability to accurately estimate, control and manage our direct costs relative to the revenues derived from the markup component of our gross billings. | ||||||||||
Consistent with our revenue recognition policy, our direct costs do not include the payroll cost of our worksite employees. Our direct costs associated with our revenue generating activities are primarily comprised of all other costs related to our worksite employees, such as the employer portion of payroll-related taxes, employee benefit plan premiums and workers’ compensation insurance costs. | ||||||||||
Segment Reporting | ||||||||||
We operate one reportable segment under ASC 280, Segment Reporting. | ||||||||||
Principles of Consolidation | ||||||||||
The Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of Insperity, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries. Intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. | ||||||||||
Use of Estimates | ||||||||||
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. | ||||||||||
Concentrations of Credit Risk | ||||||||||
Financial instruments that could potentially subject us to concentration of credit risk include accounts receivable and marketable securities. | ||||||||||
Cash, Cash Equivalents and Marketable Securities | ||||||||||
We invest our excess cash in federal government and municipal-based money market funds and debt instruments of U.S. municipalities. All highly liquid investments with stated maturities of three months or less from date of purchase are classified as cash equivalents. Liquid investments with stated maturities of greater than three months are classified as marketable securities in current assets. | ||||||||||
We account for marketable securities in accordance with ASC 320, Investments – Debt and Equity Securities. We determine the appropriate classification of all marketable securities as held-to-maturity, available-for-sale or trading at the time of purchase, and re-evaluate such classification as of each balance sheet date. At December 31, 2013 and 2012, all of our investments in marketable securities were classified as available-for-sale, and as a result, were reported at fair value. Unrealized gains and losses are reported as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) in stockholders’ equity. The amortized cost of debt securities is adjusted for amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts from the date of purchase to maturity. Such amortization is included in interest income as an addition to or deduction from the coupon interest earned on the investments. We use the specific identification method of determining the cost basis in computing realized gains and losses on the sale of our available-for-sale securities. Realized gains and losses are included in other income. | ||||||||||
Fair Value of Financial Instruments | ||||||||||
The carrying amounts of cash, cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate their fair values due to the short-term maturities of these instruments. | ||||||||||
Property and Equipment | ||||||||||
Property and equipment are recorded at cost and are depreciated over the estimated useful lives of the related assets using the straight-line method. The estimated useful lives of property and equipment for purposes of computing depreciation are as follows: | ||||||||||
Buildings and improvements | 5-30 years | |||||||||
Computer hardware and software | 1-5 years | |||||||||
Software development costs | 3 years | |||||||||
Furniture and fixtures | 5-7 years | |||||||||
Aircraft | 15-20 years | |||||||||
Software development costs relate primarily to software coding, system interfaces and testing of our proprietary professional employer information systems and are accounted for in accordance with ASC 350-40, Internal Use Software. Capitalized software development costs are amortized using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the software, generally three years. We recognized $3.6 million, $2.8 million and $1.6 million in amortization of capitalized computer software costs in 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively. Unamortized computer software costs were $7.2 million and $8.2 million in 2013 and 2012, respectively. | ||||||||||
We account for our software products in accordance with ASC 985-20, Costs of Software to be Sold. This Topic establishes standards of financial accounting and reporting for the costs of computer software to be sold, leased, or otherwise marketed as a separate product or as part of a product or process, whether internally developed and produced or purchased. | ||||||||||
We periodically evaluate our long-lived assets for impairment in accordance with ASC 360-10, Property, Plant, and Equipment. ASC 360-10 requires that an impairment loss be recognized for assets to be disposed of or held-for-use when the carrying amount of an asset is deemed to not be recoverable. If events or circumstances were to indicate that any of our long-lived assets might be impaired, we would assess recoverability based on the estimated undiscounted future cash flows to be generated from the applicable asset. In addition, we may record an impairment loss to the extent that the carrying value of the asset exceeded the fair value of the asset. Fair value is generally determined using an estimate of discounted future net cash flows from operating activities or upon disposal of the asset. | ||||||||||
Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets | ||||||||||
Our purchased intangible assets are carried at cost less accumulated amortization. Amortization is computed over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets, ranging from three to 10 years. | ||||||||||
Our goodwill and intangible assets are subject to the provisions of ASC 350, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other. Accordingly, we perform our annual goodwill impairment testing as of December 31st of each calendar year or earlier if indicators of impairment exist on an interim basis. Step one of the impairment testing involves a comparison of the estimated fair value of a reporting unit to the related carrying value. Fair value is estimated using a discounted cash flow model. If the estimated fair value is less than its related carrying value, step two of the goodwill impairment test is completed, which involves allocating the estimated fair value of the reporting unit to individual assets and liabilities. If the carrying value of goodwill is greater than the estimated fair value, an impairment exists, which results in a write-down of the goodwill to the estimated fair value. Furthermore, ASC 350 requires purchased intangible assets other than goodwill to be amortized over their useful lives unless these lives are determined to be indefinite. Please read Note 5, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets,” for additional information. | ||||||||||
Health Insurance Costs | ||||||||||
We provide group health insurance coverage to our worksite employees through a national network of carriers including UnitedHealthcare (“United”), UnitedHealthcare of California, Kaiser Permanente, Blue Shield of California, HMSA BlueCross BlueShield, Unity Health Plan and Tufts, all of which provide fully insured policies or service contracts. | ||||||||||
The policy with United provides the majority of our health insurance coverage. As a result of certain contractual terms, we have accounted for this plan since its inception using a partially self-funded insurance accounting model. Accordingly, we record the cost of the United portion of the plan, including an estimate of the incurred claims, taxes and administrative fees (collectively the “Plan Costs”) as benefits expense in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. The estimated incurred claims are based upon: (i) the level of claims processed during each quarter; (ii) estimated completion rates based upon recent claim development patterns under the plan; and (iii) the number of participants in the plan, including both active and COBRA enrollees. Each reporting period, changes in the estimated ultimate costs resulting from claim trends, plan design and migration, participant demographics and other factors are incorporated into the benefits costs. | ||||||||||
Additionally, since the plan’s inception, under the terms of the contract, United establishes cash funding rates 90 days in advance of the beginning of a reporting quarter. If the Plan Costs for a reporting quarter are greater than the premiums paid and owed to United, a deficit in the plan would be incurred and a liability for the excess costs would be accrued in our Consolidated Balance Sheets. On the other hand, if the Plan Costs for the reporting quarter are less than the premiums paid and owed to United, a surplus in the plan would be incurred and we would record an asset for the excess premiums in our Consolidated Balance Sheets. The terms of the arrangement require us to maintain an accumulated cash surplus in the plan of $9.0 million, which is reported as long-term prepaid insurance. In addition, United requires a deposit equal to approximately | ||||||||||
one day of claims funding activity, which was $3.5 million as of December 31, 2013, and is reported as a long-term asset. | ||||||||||
As of December 31, 2013, Plan Costs were less than the net premiums paid and owed to United by $13.5 million. As this amount is in excess of the agreed-upon $9.0 million surplus maintenance level, the $4.5 million balance is included in prepaid insurance, a current asset, in our Consolidated Balance Sheets. The premiums owed to United at December 31, 2013, were $2.1 million, which is included in accrued health insurance costs, a current liability in our Consolidated Balance Sheets. | ||||||||||
Workers’ Compensation Costs | ||||||||||
Our workers’ compensation coverage has been provided through an arrangement with the ACE Group of Companies (“the ACE Program”) since 2007. The ACE Program is fully insured in that ACE has the responsibility to pay all claims incurred regardless of whether we satisfy our responsibilities. Through September 30, 2010, we bore the economic burden for the first $1 million layer of claims per occurrence and the insurance carrier was and remains responsible for the economic burden for all claims in excess of such first $1 million layer. | ||||||||||
Effective October 1, 2010, in addition to bearing the economic burden for the first $1 million layer of claims per occurrence, we also bear the economic burden for those claims exceeding $1 million, up to a maximum aggregate amount of $5 million per policy year. | ||||||||||
Because we bear the economic burden for claims up to the levels noted above, such claims, which are the primary component of our workers’ compensation costs, are recorded in the period incurred. Workers’ compensation insurance includes ongoing health care and indemnity coverage whereby claims are paid over numerous years following the date of injury. Accordingly, the accrual of related incurred costs in each reporting period includes estimates, which take into account the ongoing development of claims and therefore requires a significant level of judgment. | ||||||||||
We employ a third party actuary to estimate our loss development rate, which is primarily based upon the nature of worksite employees’ job responsibilities, the location of worksite employees, the historical frequency and severity of workers compensation claims, and an estimate of future cost trends. Each reporting period, changes in the actuarial assumptions resulting from changes in actual claims experience and other trends are incorporated into our workers’ compensation claims cost estimates. During the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, we reduced accrued workers’ compensation costs by $9.3 million and $13.1 million, respectively, for changes in estimated losses related to prior reporting periods. Workers’ compensation cost estimates are discounted to present value at a rate based upon the U.S. Treasury rates that correspond with the weighted average estimated claim payout period (the average discount rates utilized in 2013 and 2012 were 0.8% and 0.6%, respectively) and are accreted over the estimated claim payment period and included as a component of direct costs in our Consolidated Statements of Operations. | ||||||||||
The following table provides the activity and balances related to incurred but not reported workers’ compensation claims: | ||||||||||

$ | 120,833 | $ | 111,685 | |||||||
The current portion of accrued workers’ compensation costs at December 31, 2013 and 2012 includes $1.0 million and $2.3 million, respectively, of workers’ compensation administrative fees. | ||||||||||
As of December 31, the undiscounted accrued workers’ compensation costs were $131.2 million in 2013 and $123.4 million in 2012. | ||||||||||
At the beginning of each policy period, the insurance carrier establishes monthly funding requirements comprised of premium costs and funds to be set aside for payment of future claims (“claim funds”). The level of claim funds is primarily based upon anticipated worksite employee payroll levels and expected workers’ compensation loss rates, as determined by the insurance carrier. Monies funded into the program for incurred claims expected to be paid within one year are recorded as restricted cash, a short-term asset, while the remainder of claim funds are included in deposits, a long-term asset in our Consolidated Balance Sheets. In 2013, we paid the insurance carrier an additional $5.0 million in claim funds for policy years prior to 2013, which increased deposits. As of December 31, 2013, we had restricted cash of $51.9 million and deposits of $81.9 million. | ||||||||||
Our estimate of incurred claim costs expected to be paid within one year are recorded as accrued workers’ compensation costs and included in short-term liabilities, while our estimate of incurred claim costs expected to be paid beyond one year are included in long-term liabilities on our Consolidated Balance Sheets. | ||||||||||
Stock-Based Compensation | ||||||||||
At December 31, 2013, we have three stock-based employee compensation plans. We account for these plans under the recognition and measurement principles of ASC 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation, which requires all share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, to be recognized in the income statement based on their fair values. | ||||||||||
We generally make annual grants of restricted and unrestricted stock under our stock-based incentive compensation plans to our directors, officers and other management. Restricted stock grants to officers and other management vest over three to five years from the date of grant. Restricted stock grants issued to directors upon their initial appointment to the board are one-third vested on each anniversary of the grant date. Annual stock grants issued to directors are 100% vested on the grant date. Shares of restricted stock are based on fair value on date of grant and the associated expense, net of estimated forfeitures, is recognized over the vesting period. | ||||||||||
Company-Sponsored 401(k) Plans | ||||||||||
Under our 401(k) plan for corporate employees (the “Corporate Plan”), we matched 50% of eligible corporate employees’ contributions, up to 6% of the employees’ eligible compensation in 2013, 2012 and 2011. Under our separate | ||||||||||
401(k) plan for worksite employees (the “Worksite Employee Plan”), the match percentage for worksite employees ranges from 0% to 6%, as determined by each client company. Matching contributions under the Corporate Plan and the Worksite Employee Plan are immediately vested. During 2013, 2012 and 2011, we made matching contributions to the Corporate and Worksite Employee Plans of $74.7 million, $65.9 million and $58.1 million, respectively. Of these contributions, $71.7 million, $63.3 million and $55.7 million were made under the Worksite Employee Plan on behalf of worksite employees. The remainder represents matching contributions made under the Corporate Plan on behalf of corporate employees. | ||||||||||
Advertising | ||||||||||
We expense all advertising costs as incurred. | ||||||||||
Income Taxes | ||||||||||
We use the liability method in accounting for income taxes. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on differences between financial reporting and income tax carrying amounts of assets and liabilities and are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. | ||||||||||
Reclassifications | ||||||||||
Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the 2013 presentation. | ||||||||||
New Accounting Pronouncements | ||||||||||
We believe that we have implemented the accounting pronouncements with a material impact on our financial statements and do not believe there are any new or pending announcements that will materially impact our financial position or results of operations. |

The municipal bond securities valued as Level 2 investments are primarily pre-refunded municipal bonds that are secured by escrow funds containing U.S. Government securities.

Our accounts receivable is primarily composed of trade receivables and unbilled receivables. Our trade receivables, which represent outstanding gross billings to customers, are reported net of allowance for doubtful accounts of $0.9 million and $1.0 million as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. We establish an allowance for doubtful accounts based on management’s assessment of the collectability of specific accounts and by making a general provision for other potentially uncollectible amounts. | |||||||||
We make an accrual at the end of each accounting period for our obligations associated with the earned but unpaid wages of our worksite employees and for the accrued gross billings associated with such wages. These accruals are included in accrued worksite employee payroll cost and unbilled accounts receivable; however, these amounts are presented net in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. We generally require clients to pay invoices for service fees no later than one day prior to the applicable payroll date. As such, we generally do not require collateral. Customer prepayments directly attributable to unbilled accounts receivable have been netted against such receivables as the gross billings have been earned and the payroll cost has been incurred, thus we have the legal right of offset for these amounts.

During the fourth quarter of 2013 and 2012, we performed step one of the annual impairment testing for each of our reporting units and concluded the estimated fair value of our Expense Management and Performance Management reporting units, respectively, were below their respective carrying values. The declines in the estimated fair values of Expense Management and Performance Management resulted primarily from lower projected revenue growth rates and profitability levels. The timing of the lower revenue growth rates and profitability level revisions coincided with the timing of our overall forecasting process for all reporting units, which is performed in the fourth quarter of each calendar year. Upon completion of step two of the goodwill impairment test, we recognized goodwill and other intangible asset impairment write-downs of $3.3 million in 2013 related to our Expense Management reporting unit, and $4.2 million in 2012 related to our Performance Management reporting unit. The fair value of the reporting units was estimated using a discounted cash flow model, which we believe appropriately estimates the fair value of the reporting units. The material assumptions used in the model included the weighted average cost of capital and long-term growth rates. We consider this a Level 3 fair value measure. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||

In 2011, we acquired a minority interest in The Receivables Exchange ("TRE"), an online marketplace for the sale of accounts receivable, for $2.8 million. In the second quarter of 2013, TRE issued similar securities at per share amounts substantially below the per share book value of our investment. Accordingly, we valued the investment based on a similar security market transaction, which is a Level 2 valuation technique. This resulted in a non-cash impairment charge of $2.7 million, which is included in other income (expense) in our Consolidated Statements of Operations in 2013. Due to federal income tax limitations on capital losses, no tax benefit associated with the impairment was recognized. |

We account for our acquisitions in accordance with ASC 805, Business Combinations, which requires allocation of the purchase price to tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on the fair value at the date of purchase. All acquisition related costs are expensed as incurred and recorded in operating expenses. We include operations associated with acquisitions from the date of acquisition forward. | ||
In January 2011, we acquired certain assets from HumanConcepts, a provider of workforce decision support solutions. We acquired ownership of the OrgPlus desktop software product line (“OrgPlus”), targeted at small and medium-sized businesses, and its associated customer base, as well as a source code license for a SaaS based version. The OrgPlus software facilitates creation, management and communication of detailed organizational charts. The acquisition represents our continued business strategy to expand the sales opportunity of our human resources services as well as the solutions available to our current and prospective clients. We paid $10.8 million upon the closing of the transaction and paid an additional $1.2 million in 2012 based on the terms of the agreement. | ||
In June 2010, we acquired OneMind Connect, Inc. which conducted business under the name “ExpensAble,” and provides expense report management solutions delivered as both a SaaS and as a desktop software product. The acquisition of ExpensAble extends the sales opportunity of our human resources services as well as the solutions available to our current and prospective clients. We paid $5.5 million upon the closing of the transaction and paid an additional $1.3 million in 2011 based on the terms of the agreement. | ||
In July 2010, we acquired certain assets from Galaxy Technologies, Inc. in an effort to expand the sales opportunity of our human resources services as well as the solutions available to our current and prospective clients.

On September 15, 2011, we entered into a four-year, $100 million revolving credit facility (the “Facility”), which may be increased to $150 million based on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the agreement relating to the Facility (the “Credit Agreement”). The Facility is available for working capital and general corporate purposes, including acquisitions, and issuances of letters of credit. Our obligations under the Facility are secured by 65% of the stock of our captive insurance subsidiary and are guaranteed by all of our domestic subsidiaries. At December 31, 2013, we had not drawn on the Facility. | ||
The Facility matures on September 15, 2015. Borrowings under the Facility bear interest at an alternate base rate or LIBOR, at our option, plus an applicable margin. Depending on our leverage ratio, the applicable margin varies (i) in the case of LIBOR loans, from 2.00% to 2.75% and (ii) in the case of alternate base rate loans, from 0.00% to 0.75%. The alternate base rate is the highest of (i) the prime rate most recently published in The Wall Street Journal, (ii) the federal funds rate plus 0.50% and (iii) the 30-day LIBOR rate plus 2.00%. We also pay an unused commitment fee on the average daily unused portion of the Facility at a rate of 0.25%. Interest expense and unused commitment fees are recorded in other income (expense). | ||
The Facility contains both affirmative and negative covenants, which we believe are customary for arrangements of this nature. Covenants include, but are not limited to, limitations on our ability to incur additional indebtedness, sell material assets, retire, redeem or otherwise reacquire our capital stock, acquire the capital stock or assets of another business, make investments and pay dividends. In addition, the Credit Agreement requires us to comply with financial covenants limiting our total funded debt, minimum interest coverage ratio and maximum leverage ratio. In December 2012, the Credit Agreement was amended to modify the interest coverage ratio covenant to exclude the impact of the $25.7 million special dividend. We were in compliance with all financial covenants under the Credit Agreement at December 31, 2013. |

As a result of nonqualified stock option exercises, disqualifying dispositions of certain employee incentive stock options and vesting of restricted stock awards, we had a net income tax benefit of $1.3 million in 2013, $1.8 million in 2012 and $1.7 million in 2011.

We have developed customer facing software that is included as a component of the Workforce Optimization solution. In addition, several ABUs market both software products and software as a service offerings. Prior to 2013, we were not certain that these software offerings met the IRS “Qualified Production Activities Deduction” requirements. As a result, no such tax deduction was taken on the annual tax returns filed with the IRS. However, in 2013, we engaged tax specialists to conduct a study of our various software offerings to assess the qualifications with IRS guidelines. Based on this study, we concluded certain of our software offerings met the IRS requirements, resulting in plans to amend previously filed open year tax returns. Accordingly, in 2013 we recognized $2.0 million in tax benefits for the years 2009 to 2012, and $530,000 in tax benefits for the 2013 tax year. | |||||||||||||
At December 31, 2013, we have net operating loss carryforwards totaling approximately $4.8 million that expire from 2022 to 2030 related to our acquisition of ExpensAble. | |||||||||||||
We recognize interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions in income tax expense. As of December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, we made no provisions for interest or penalties related to uncertain tax positions. The tax years 2010 through 2012 remain open to examination by the Internal Revenue Service of the United States. |

Repurchase Program | ||||||||||
Our Board of Directors (the “Board”) has authorized a program to repurchase up to 15,500,000 shares of our outstanding common stock (“Repurchase Program”). The purchases are to be made from time to time in the open market or directly from stockholders at prevailing market prices based on market conditions or other factors. We repurchased 479,903 shares under the Repurchase Program during 2013. In addition, 116,931 shares were withheld during 2013 to satisfy tax withholding obligations for the vesting of restricted stock awards. These purchases are not subject to the Repurchase Program. During 2012, we repurchased 407,400 shares under the Repurchase Program and 107,293 shares were withheld to satisfy tax withholding obligations for the vesting of restricted stock awards. As of December 31, 2013, we were authorized to repurchase an additional 1,349,569 shares under the Repurchase Program. Shares repurchased under the Repurchase Program and shares withheld to satisfy tax withholding obligations for the vesting of restricted stock awards are recorded in treasury. | ||||||||||

During 2013 and 2012, we paid a total of $17.4 million and $42.7 million, respectively in dividends. | ||||||||||
Tender Offer for Common Stock | ||||||||||
In November 2012, we commenced a modified “Dutch auction” tender offer to purchase up to $50 million in value of our common stock at a price not less than $27.00 per share and not more than $31.00 per share. The tender offer period expired on December 21, 2012, resulting in the repurchase of 80,983 shares at a per share price of $31.00 and an aggregate price of $3.2 million, including transaction costs. The shares were immediately retired. | ||||||||||
Preferred Stock | ||||||||||
At December 31, 2013, 20 million shares of preferred stock were authorized, of which 600,000 shares were designated as Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock that is reserved for issuance on exercise of preferred stock purchase rights under our Share Purchase Rights Plan (the “Rights Plan”). Each issued share of our common stock has one preferred stock purchase right attached to it. No preferred shares have been issued and the rights are not currently exercisable. The Rights Plan expires on November 13, 2017. |

11 | Incentive Plans | |||||||||||||
The Insperity, Inc. 2001 Incentive Plan, as amended, and the 2012 Incentive Plan, as amended, (collectively, the “Incentive Plans”) provide for options and other stock-based awards that have been and may be granted to eligible employees and non-employee directors of Insperity or its subsidiaries. The 2012 Incentive Plan is currently the only plan under which new stock-based awards may be granted. The Incentive Plans are administered by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors (the “Committee”). The Committee has the power to determine which eligible employees will receive awards, the timing and manner of the grant of such awards, the exercise price of stock options (which may not be less than market value on the date of grant), the number of shares and all of the terms of the awards. The Board may at any time amend or terminate the Incentive Plans. However, no amendment that would impair the rights of any participant, with respect to outstanding grants, can be made without the participant’s prior consent. Stockholder approval of amendments to the Incentive Plans is necessary only when required by applicable law or stock exchange rules. At December 31, 2013, 1,499,221 shares of common stock were available for future grants under the 2012 Incentive Plan. The Incentive Plans permit stock options, including nonqualified stock options and options intended to qualify as “incentive stock options” within the meaning of Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code, stock awards, phantom stock awards, stock appreciation rights, performance units, and other stock-based awards and cash awards, all of which may or may not be subject to the achievement of one or more performance objectives. The purposes of the Incentive Plans generally are to retain and attract persons of training, experience and ability to serve as employees of Insperity and its subsidiaries and to serve as non-employee directors of Insperity, to encourage the sense of proprietorship of such persons and to stimulate the active interest of such persons in the development and financial success of Insperity and its subsidiaries. | ||||||||||||||
The Insperity Nonqualified Stock Option Plan (the “Nonqualified Plan”) provided for options to purchase shares of Insperity’s common stock that were granted to employees who were not officers. An aggregate of 3,600,000 shares of common stock of Insperity were authorized to be issued under the Nonqualified Plan. Although there are unissued shares remaining, no new awards may be granted under the Nonqualified Plan. The Committee may at any time terminate or amend the Nonqualified Plan, provided that no such amendment may adversely affect the rights of optionees with regard to outstanding options. | ||||||||||||||
We recognized $11.1 million, $9.8 million and $8.6 million of compensation expense associated with the restricted stock awards in 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively. We recognized $4.5 million, $4.0 million and $3.4 million of tax benefits associated with stock-based compensation in 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively. | ||||||||||||||

The intrinsic value of options exercised during the year was $1.5 million in 2013, $2.5 million in 2012 and $2.2 million in 2011. | ||||||||||||||
Restricted Stock Awards | ||||||||||||||
Restricted common shares, under equity plan accounting, are generally measured at fair value on the date of grant based on the number of shares granted, estimated forfeitures and the quoted price of the common stock. Such value is recognized as compensation expense over the corresponding vesting period, three to five years for our shares currently outstanding. The total fair value of shares vested during the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012, and 2011 was $12.3 million, $11.7 million and $11.1 million, respectively. The weighted average grant date fair value of restricted stock awards during the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011 was $29.25, $30.47 and $29.47, respectively. As of December 31, 2013, unrecognized compensation expense associated with the unvested shares outstanding was $12.7 million and is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 22 months. | ||||||||||||||

Employee Stock Purchase Plan | ||||||||||||||
Our employee stock purchase plan (the “ESPP”) enables employees to purchase shares of Insperity stock at a 5% discount. The ESPP is a non-compensatory plan under generally accepted accounting principles of stock-based compensation. As a result, no compensation expense is recognized in conjunction with this plan. Approximately 34 thousand, 37 thousand and 35 thousand shares were issued under the ESPP during fiscal years 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively. |

12 | Net Income Per Share | ||||||||||||
We utilize the two-class method to compute net income per share. The two-class method allocates a portion of net income to participating securities, which include unvested awards of share-based payments with non-forfeitable rights to receive dividends. Net income allocated to unvested share-based payments is excluded from net income allocated to common shares. Any undistributed losses resulting from dividends exceeding net income are not allocated to participating securities. Basic net income per share is computed by dividing net income allocated to common shares by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income per share is computed by dividing net income allocated to common shares by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period, plus the dilutive effect of outstanding stock options. | |||||||||||||
The following table summarizes the net income allocated to common shares and the basic and diluted shares used in the net income per share computations: | |||||||||||||

Texas Sales and Use Tax Assessments | |||||
In July 2008, we purchased a used aircraft (the “2008 Aircraft”) with the intent to immediately lease it to an aircraft charter service under 14 C.F.R. Part 135 (the “2008 Aircraft Purchase”). In connection with the 2008 Aircraft Purchase, we sought and received a letter ruling from the State of Texas Comptroller’s Tax Policy Division (the “Comptroller’s Ruling”). The Comptroller’s Ruling concluded that the 2008 Aircraft Purchase and lease qualified for the “sale for resale” exemption to sales and use taxes. In 2011, we purchased a used aircraft in a transaction that included the trade-in of the 2008 Aircraft with the intent to immediately lease the newly-purchased aircraft to the same aircraft charter service under Part 135 (“the 2011 Aircraft Purchase”). The structure of the 2011 Aircraft Purchase and lease transaction was patterned after the 2008 Aircraft Purchase. In accordance with the Comptroller’s Ruling, we did not pay sales or use tax on either the 2008 Aircraft Purchase or the 2011 Aircraft Purchase. | |||||
The Comptroller’s Office has since changed its view as expressed in the Comptroller’s Ruling and is now asserting that the 2008 Aircraft Purchase and the 2011 Aircraft Purchase are subject to sales and use tax. In May 2012, the Comptroller’s Office issued a notification of examination results regarding the 2008 Aircraft Purchase. It has assessed approximately $782,000 in taxes but waived any claim for interest and did not assess any penalty. In a separate matter regarding the 2011 Aircraft Purchase, the Comptroller’s Office issued its notification of examination results in December 2013 and assessed approximately $933,000 in taxes, penalties and interest. | |||||
We have filed requests for redetermination disputing both assessments and are seeking hearings concerning them. We believe the assessments are without merit and intend to vigorously contest them. At this time, we are unable to determine the ultimate outcome of these matters. However, in the event the State of Texas succeeds with enforcement of the assessments, we may be required to pay some or all of the assessments, which would reduce net income in the reported period. | |||||
Massachusetts Tax Assessment | |||||
During the fourth quarter of 2012, we received assessments of approximately $2.5 million, including interest and penalties, related to the alleged underpayment of corporate income taxes to the State of Massachusetts for tax years 2006 through 2008. In 2009, we received similar assessments of approximately $470,000, including interest and penalties, which covered tax years 2003 through 2005. However, in 2013 Massachusetts withdrew its assessment regarding the 2003 to 2005 periods. We believe the remaining assessments are without merit and intend to vigorously contest them. At this time, we are unable to determine the ultimate outcome of this matter. However, in the event the State of Massachusetts succeeds with enforcement of the assessments, we may be required to pay some or all of the assessments, which would reduce net income and could have a material adverse effect on net income in the reported period. | |||||
Lumbermens Mutual Casualty Company | |||||
In 2003, facing continued capital constraints and a series of downgrades from various rating agencies, our former workers’ compensation insurance carrier for the two-year period ended September 2003, Lumbermens Mutual Casualty Company, formerly known as Kemper (“Lumbermens Mutual”), made the decision to substantially cease underwriting operations and voluntarily entered into “run-off.” In July 2012, Lumbermens Mutual announced that an agreed order of rehabilitation had been entered against it in Cook County, Illinois. Under the order, the Director of the Illinois Department of Insurance was vested with control over Lumbermens Mutual property and decision-making. In an order effective May 10, 2013, the Circuit Court of Cook County, Illinois, found that Lumbermens Mutual was insolvent and ordered its liquidation. | |||||
The entry of a liquidation order triggered the transition of claim handling responsibilities for Lumbermens Mutual’s open claims to state guaranty associations around the country. Guaranty associations are non-profit organizations created by statute for the purpose of protecting policyholders from severe financial losses and preventing delays in claim payments due to the insolvency of an insurer. They do this by assuming responsibility for the payment of claims that would otherwise have been paid by the insurer had it not become insolvent. Each state has one or more guaranty association(s), with each association handling certain types of insurance. Insurance companies are required to be members of the state guaranty association as a condition of being licensed to do business in the state. | |||||
The guaranty associations in some states, including Texas, may assert that state law allows them to recover the amount of benefits paid by the guaranty association along with associated administration and defense costs from an insured with a net worth exceeding certain specified levels or based upon certain other theories of recovery. We intend to vigorously assert our available defenses to any claims made by any guaranty association. We estimate the outstanding amounts that may be subject to claims from state guaranty associations to range from $1.0 million to $2.0 million as of December 31, 2013. In the event state guaranty associations are successful in seeking recovery from us, we would be required to pay such claims and record liabilities for anticipated future claims, which could have an adverse effect on net income in the reported period. | |||||
Pennsylvania Sales Taxes | |||||
Pennsylvania imposes a sales tax on “help supply services.” The Pennsylvania Department of Revenue (“Department”) had maintained that PEO services constitute help supply services and are subject to the tax. On February 21, 2012, the Pennsylvania Supreme Court affirmed the Appeals Court decision in the matter titled All Staffing vs. Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, which ruled that PEO services are not subject to the Pennsylvania sales tax. | |||||
For the period January 1, 2010, through September 30, 2011, we accrued approximately $2.5 million in Pennsylvania sales tax. As we believed our PEO services were not subject to the sales tax, we reduced our accrual for such amounts in the fourth quarter of 2011. | |||||
In 2010, we filed refund claims totaling $2.9 million with the Department for the sales taxes paid in error for the period April 1, 2007 through December 31, 2009. In the second quarter of 2012, the Pennsylvania Board of Finance and Revenue approved our refund claims, and we recognized a $2.9 million receivable and a corresponding reduction to payroll tax expense, a component of direct costs. During the third quarter of 2012, we received the $2.9 million refund. | |||||
California Unemployment Taxes | |||||
As a result of a 2001 corporate restructuring, we filed for a transfer of our state unemployment tax reserve account with the Employment Development Department of the State of California (“EDD”). The EDD approved our request for transfer of the reserve account in May 2002 and also notified us of our new contribution rates based upon the approved transfer. In December 2003, we received a Notice of Duplicate Accounts and Notification of Assessment (“Notice”) from the EDD. The Notice stated that the EDD was collapsing the accounts of our subsidiaries into the account of the entity with the highest unemployment tax rate. The Notice also retroactively imposed the higher unemployment insurance rate on all of our California employees for 2003, resulting in an assessment of $5.6 million. In January 2004, we filed petitions with an administrative law judge of the California Unemployment Insurance Appeals Board (“ALJ”) to protest the validity of the Notice, asserting several procedural and substantive defenses. | |||||
One procedural defense included in our appeal asserts that the EDD failed to meet the statutory requirement related to serving a proper notice within the stipulated time frame and that all of the statutes of limitations concerning the EDD’s ability to reassess or modify unemployment tax rates for the periods addressed in the Notice had expired (“Notification Defense”). During 2010, a California Circuit Court issued a ruling in favor of the EDD regarding a dispute involving a taxpayer who made arguments similar to our Notification Defense. The Supreme Court of California subsequently denied the taxpayer’s petition for review. We subsequently received a statement of account from the EDD indicating taxes, penalties and interest due of approximately $8.1 million. | |||||
While still denying all liability, we entered into a written agreement with the EDD in September 2011 to fully and finally settle this dispute (the “Settlement Agreement”). Pursuant to the terms of the Settlement Agreement, we agreed to pay $3.1 million (the “Settlement Amount”) to the EDD. The Settlement Amount of $3.1 million was paid and recorded in other income (expense) during the year ended December 31, 2011. |

Description of Business | ||||||||||
Insperity, Inc., formerly named Administaff, Inc. (“Insperity” or “we”, “our”, and “us”) provides an array of human resources (“HR”) and business solutions designed to help improve business performance. Our name change, which was effective March 3, 2011, reflects our evolution over the past 27 years from a professional employer organization (“PEO”), an industry we pioneered, to our current position as a comprehensive business performance solutions provider. We were organized as a corporation in 1986 and have provided PEO services since inception. | ||||||||||
Our most comprehensive HR business offering is provided through our PEO services, known as Workforce Optimization® solution, which encompasses a broad range of human resources functions, including payroll and employment administration, employee benefits, workers’ compensation, government compliance, performance management, and training and development services. | ||||||||||
In addition to Workforce Optimization, we offer Human Capital Management, Payroll Services, Time and Attendance, Performance Management, Organizational Planning, Recruiting Services, Employment Screening, Financial Services, Expense Management, Retirement Services and Insurance Services, (collectively “Adjacent Businesses”), many of which are offered via desktop applications and software as a service delivery models. These other products or services are offered separately, as a bundle, or along with Workforce Optimization. | ||||||||||
We provide our Workforce Optimization solution by entering into a co-employment relationship with our clients, under which Insperity and its clients each take responsibility for certain portions of the employer-employee relationship. Insperity and its clients designate each party’s responsibilities through its Client Services Agreement (“CSA”), under which Insperity becomes the employer of the employees who work at the client’s location (“worksite employees”) for most administrative and regulatory purposes. | ||||||||||
As a co-employer of its worksite employees, we assume many of the rights and obligations associated with being an employer. We enter into an employment agreement with each worksite employee, thereby maintaining a variety of employer rights, including the right to hire or terminate employees, the right to evaluate employee qualifications or performance, and the right to establish employee compensation levels. Typically, Insperity only exercises these rights in consultation with its clients or when necessary to ensure regulatory compliance. The responsibilities associated with our role as employer include the following obligations with regard to our worksite employees: (i) to compensate its worksite employees through wages and salaries; (ii) to pay the employer portion of payroll-related taxes; (iii) to withhold and remit (where applicable) the employee portion of payroll-related taxes; (iv) to provide employee benefit programs; and (v) to provide workers’ compensation insurance coverage. | ||||||||||
In addition to our assumption of employer status for our worksite employees, our Workforce Optimization solution also includes other human resources functions for our clients to support the effective and efficient use of personnel in their business operations. To provide these functions, we maintain a significant staff of professionals trained in a wide variety of human resources functions, including employee training, employee recruiting, employee performance management, employee compensation, and employer liability management. These professionals interact and consult with clients on a daily basis to help identify each client’s service requirements and to ensure that we are providing appropriate and timely personnel management services. | ||||||||||
We provide our Workforce Optimization solution to small and medium-sized businesses in strategically selected markets throughout the United States. Significant markets include the following: | ||||||||||

Revenue and Direct Cost Recognition | ' | |||||||||
Revenue and Direct Cost Recognition | ||||||||||
We account for our Workforce Optimization revenues in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 605-45, Revenue Recognition, Principal Agent Considerations. Our Workforce Optimization revenues are derived from our gross billings, which are based on (i) the payroll cost of its worksite employees; and (ii) a markup computed as a percentage of the payroll cost. The gross billings are invoiced concurrently with each periodic payroll of its worksite employees. Revenues, which exclude the payroll cost component of gross billings and therefore consist solely of markup, are recognized ratably over the payroll period as worksite employees perform their service at the client worksite. Revenues that have been recognized but not invoiced are included in unbilled accounts receivable on our Consolidated Balance Sheets. | ||||||||||
In determining the pricing of the markup component of the gross billings, we take into consideration our estimates of the costs directly associated with our worksite employees, including payroll taxes, benefits and workers’ compensation costs, plus an acceptable gross profit margin. As a result, our operating results are significantly impacted by our ability to accurately estimate, control and manage our direct costs relative to the revenues derived from the markup component of our gross billings. | ||||||||||
Consistent with our revenue recognition policy, our direct costs do not include the payroll cost of our worksite employees. Our direct costs associated with our revenue generating activities are primarily comprised of all other costs related to our worksite employees, such as the employer portion of payroll-related taxes, employee benefit plan premiums and workers’ compensation insurance costs. | ||||||||||

Use of Estimates | ||||||||||
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. | ||||||||||
Concentrations of Credit Risk | ' | |||||||||
Concentrations of Credit Risk | ||||||||||
Financial instruments that could potentially subject us to concentration of credit risk include accounts receivable and marketable securities. | ||||||||||
Cash, Cash Equivalents and Marketable Securities | ' | |||||||||
Cash, Cash Equivalents and Marketable Securities | ||||||||||
We invest our excess cash in federal government and municipal-based money market funds and debt instruments of U.S. municipalities. All highly liquid investments with stated maturities of three months or less from date of purchase are classified as cash equivalents. Liquid investments with stated maturities of greater than three months are classified as marketable securities in current assets. | ||||||||||
We account for marketable securities in accordance with ASC 320, Investments – Debt and Equity Securities. We determine the appropriate classification of all marketable securities as held-to-maturity, available-for-sale or trading at the time of purchase, and re-evaluate such classification as of each balance sheet date. At December 31, 2013 and 2012, all of our investments in marketable securities were classified as available-for-sale, and as a result, were reported at fair value. Unrealized gains and losses are reported as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) in stockholders’ equity. The amortized cost of debt securities is adjusted for amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts from the date of purchase to maturity. Such amortization is included in interest income as an addition to or deduction from the coupon interest earned on the investments. We use the specific identification method of determining the cost basis in computing realized gains and losses on the sale of our available-for-sale securities. Realized gains and losses are included in other income. | ||||||||||
Fair Value of Financial Instruments | ' | |||||||||
Fair Value of Financial Instruments | ||||||||||
The carrying amounts of cash, cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate their fair values due to the short-term maturities of these instruments. | ||||||||||
Property and Equipment | ' | |||||||||
Property and Equipment | ||||||||||
Property and equipment are recorded at cost and are depreciated over the estimated useful lives of the related assets using the straight-line method. The estimated useful lives of property and equipment for purposes of computing depreciation are as follows: | ||||||||||
Buildings and improvements | 5-30 years | |||||||||
Computer hardware and software | 1-5 years | |||||||||
Software development costs | 3 years | |||||||||
Furniture and fixtures | 5-7 years | |||||||||
Aircraft | 15-20 years | |||||||||
Software development costs relate primarily to software coding, system interfaces and testing of our proprietary professional employer information systems and are accounted for in accordance with ASC 350-40, Internal Use Software. Capitalized software development costs are amortized using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the software, generally three years. We recognized $3.6 million, $2.8 million and $1.6 million in amortization of capitalized computer software costs in 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively. Unamortized computer software costs were $7.2 million and $8.2 million in 2013 and 2012, respectively. | ||||||||||
We account for our software products in accordance with ASC 985-20, Costs of Software to be Sold. This Topic establishes standards of financial accounting and reporting for the costs of computer software to be sold, leased, or otherwise marketed as a separate product or as part of a product or process, whether internally developed and produced or purchased. | ||||||||||
We periodically evaluate our long-lived assets for impairment in accordance with ASC 360-10, Property, Plant, and Equipment. ASC 360-10 requires that an impairment loss be recognized for assets to be disposed of or held-for-use when the carrying amount of an asset is deemed to not be recoverable. If events or circumstances were to indicate that any of our long-lived assets might be impaired, we would assess recoverability based on the estimated undiscounted future cash flows to be generated from the applicable asset. In addition, we may record an impairment loss to the extent that the carrying value of the asset exceeded the fair value of the asset. Fair value is generally determined using an estimate of discounted future net cash flows from operating activities or upon disposal of the asset. | ||||||||||
Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets | ' | |||||||||
Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets | ||||||||||
Our purchased intangible assets are carried at cost less accumulated amortization. Amortization is computed over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets, ranging from three to 10 years. | ||||||||||
Our goodwill and intangible assets are subject to the provisions of ASC 350, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other. Accordingly, we perform our annual goodwill impairment testing as of December 31st of each calendar year or earlier if indicators of impairment exist on an interim basis. Step one of the impairment testing involves a comparison of the estimated fair value of a reporting unit to the related carrying value. Fair value is estimated using a discounted cash flow model. If the estimated fair value is less than its related carrying value, step two of the goodwill impairment test is completed, which involves allocating the estimated fair value of the reporting unit to individual assets and liabilities. If the carrying value of goodwill is greater than the estimated fair value, an impairment exists, which results in a write-down of the goodwill to the estimated fair value. Furthermore, ASC 350 requires purchased intangible assets other than goodwill to be amortized over their useful lives unless these lives are determined to be indefinite. Please read Note 5, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets,” for additional information. | ||||||||||
Health Insurance Costs | ' | |||||||||
Health Insurance Costs | ||||||||||
We provide group health insurance coverage to our worksite employees through a national network of carriers including UnitedHealthcare (“United”), UnitedHealthcare of California, Kaiser Permanente, Blue Shield of California, HMSA BlueCross BlueShield, Unity Health Plan and Tufts, all of which provide fully insured policies or service contracts. | ||||||||||
The policy with United provides the majority of our health insurance coverage. As a result of certain contractual terms, we have accounted for this plan since its inception using a partially self-funded insurance accounting model. Accordingly, we record the cost of the United portion of the plan, including an estimate of the incurred claims, taxes and administrative fees (collectively the “Plan Costs”) as benefits expense in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. The estimated incurred claims are based upon: (i) the level of claims processed during each quarter; (ii) estimated completion rates based upon recent claim development patterns under the plan; and (iii) the number of participants in the plan, including both active and COBRA enrollees. Each reporting period, changes in the estimated ultimate costs resulting from claim trends, plan design and migration, participant demographics and other factors are incorporated into the benefits costs. | ||||||||||
Additionally, since the plan’s inception, under the terms of the contract, United establishes cash funding rates 90 days in advance of the beginning of a reporting quarter. If the Plan Costs for a reporting quarter are greater than the premiums paid and owed to United, a deficit in the plan would be incurred and a liability for the excess costs would be accrued in our Consolidated Balance Sheets. On the other hand, if the Plan Costs for the reporting quarter are less than the premiums paid and owed to United, a surplus in the plan would be incurred and we would record an asset for the excess premiums in our Consolidated Balance Sheets. The terms of the arrangement require us to maintain an accumulated cash surplus in the plan of $9.0 million, which is reported as long-term prepaid insurance. In addition, United requires a deposit equal to approximately | ||||||||||
one day of claims funding activity, which was $3.5 million as of December 31, 2013, and is reported as a long-term asset. | ||||||||||
As of December 31, 2013, Plan Costs were less than the net premiums paid and owed to United by $13.5 million. As this amount is in excess of the agreed-upon $9.0 million surplus maintenance level, the $4.5 million balance is included in prepaid insurance, a current asset, in our Consolidated Balance Sheets. The premiums owed to United at December 31, 2013, were $2.1 million, which is included in accrued health insurance costs, a current liability in our Consolidated Balance Sheets. | ||||||||||
Workers' Compensation Costs | ' | |||||||||
Workers’ Compensation Costs | ||||||||||
Our workers’ compensation coverage has been provided through an arrangement with the ACE Group of Companies (“the ACE Program”) since 2007. The ACE Program is fully insured in that ACE has the responsibility to pay all claims incurred regardless of whether we satisfy our responsibilities. Through September 30, 2010, we bore the economic burden for the first $1 million layer of claims per occurrence and the insurance carrier was and remains responsible for the economic burden for all claims in excess of such first $1 million layer. | ||||||||||
Effective October 1, 2010, in addition to bearing the economic burden for the first $1 million layer of claims per occurrence, we also bear the economic burden for those claims exceeding $1 million, up to a maximum aggregate amount of $5 million per policy year. | ||||||||||
Because we bear the economic burden for claims up to the levels noted above, such claims, which are the primary component of our workers’ compensation costs, are recorded in the period incurred. Workers’ compensation insurance includes ongoing health care and indemnity coverage whereby claims are paid over numerous years following the date of injury. Accordingly, the accrual of related incurred costs in each reporting period includes estimates, which take into account the ongoing development of claims and therefore requires a significant level of judgment. | ||||||||||
We employ a third party actuary to estimate our loss development rate, which is primarily based upon the nature of worksite employees’ job responsibilities, the location of worksite employees, the historical frequency and severity of workers compensation claims, and an estimate of future cost trends. Each reporting period, changes in the actuarial assumptions resulting from changes in actual claims experience and other trends are incorporated into our workers’ compensation claims cost estimates. During the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, we reduced accrued workers’ compensation costs by $9.3 million and $13.1 million, respectively, for changes in estimated losses related to prior reporting periods. Workers’ compensation cost estimates are discounted to present value at a rate based upon the U.S. Treasury rates that correspond with the weighted average estimated claim payout period (the average discount rates utilized in 2013 and 2012 were 0.8% and 0.6%, respectively) and are accreted over the estimated claim payment period and included as a component of direct costs in our Consolidated Statements of Operations. | ||||||||||

The current portion of accrued workers’ compensation costs at December 31, 2013 and 2012 includes $1.0 million and $2.3 million, respectively, of workers’ compensation administrative fees. | ||||||||||
As of December 31, the undiscounted accrued workers’ compensation costs were $131.2 million in 2013 and $123.4 million in 2012. | ||||||||||
At the beginning of each policy period, the insurance carrier establishes monthly funding requirements comprised of premium costs and funds to be set aside for payment of future claims (“claim funds”). The level of claim funds is primarily based upon anticipated worksite employee payroll levels and expected workers’ compensation loss rates, as determined by the insurance carrier. Monies funded into the program for incurred claims expected to be paid within one year are recorded as restricted cash, a short-term asset, while the remainder of claim funds are included in deposits, a long-term asset in our Consolidated Balance Sheets. In 2013, we paid the insurance carrier an additional $5.0 million in claim funds for policy years prior to 2013, which increased deposits. As of December 31, 2013, we had restricted cash of $51.9 million and deposits of $81.9 million. | ||||||||||
Our estimate of incurred claim costs expected to be paid within one year are recorded as accrued workers’ compensation costs and included in short-term liabilities, while our estimate of incurred claim costs expected to be paid beyond one year are included in long-term liabilities on our Consolidated Balance Sheets. | ||||||||||
Stock-Based Compensation | ' | |||||||||
Stock-Based Compensation | ||||||||||
At December 31, 2013, we have three stock-based employee compensation plans. We account for these plans under the recognition and measurement principles of ASC 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation, which requires all share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, to be recognized in the income statement based on their fair values. | ||||||||||
We generally make annual grants of restricted and unrestricted stock under our stock-based incentive compensation plans to our directors, officers and other management. Restricted stock grants to officers and other management vest over three to five years from the date of grant. Restricted stock grants issued to directors upon their initial appointment to the board are one-third vested on each anniversary of the grant date. Annual stock grants issued to directors are 100% vested on the grant date. Shares of restricted stock are based on fair value on date of grant and the associated expense, net of estimated forfeitures, is recognized over the vesting period. | ||||||||||

401(k) plan for worksite employees (the “Worksite Employee Plan”), the match percentage for worksite employees ranges from 0% to 6%, as determined by each client company. Matching contributions under the Corporate Plan and the Worksite Employee Plan are immediately vested. During 2013, 2012 and 2011, we made matching contributions to the Corporate and Worksite Employee Plans of $74.7 million, $65.9 million and $58.1 million, respectively. Of these contributions, $71.7 million, $63.3 million and $55.7 million were made under the Worksite Employee Plan on behalf of worksite employees.

We generally require clients to pay invoices for service fees no later than one day prior to the applicable payroll date. As such, we generally do not require collateral.
