NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

1. Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Allscripts Healthcare Solutions, Inc. (“Allscripts”) and its wholly-owned subsidiaries and controlled affiliates. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. Each of the terms “we,” “us,” “our” or the “Company” as used herein refers collectively to Allscripts Healthcare Solutions, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries and controlled affiliates, unless otherwise stated.

Unaudited Interim Financial Information

The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements as of and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020 have been prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) for interim financial reporting. These interim consolidated financial statements are unaudited and, in the opinion of our management, include all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments and accruals, necessary to present fairly the consolidated financial statements for the periods presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The consolidated results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year ending December 31, 2021.

Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted in accordance with the SEC's rules and regulations for interim reporting. The Company believes that the disclosures made are adequate to make these unaudited interim consolidated financial statements not misleading. They should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 (our “Form 10-K”).

Use of Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported and disclosed in the consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes. Our estimates and assumptions consider the economic implications of COVID-19 on our critical and significant accounting estimates. Actual results could differ materially from these estimates.

Change in Presentation

During the third quarter of 2021, we changed our reportable segments from Core Clinical and Financial Solutions, Data, Analytics and Care Coordination, and Unallocated to Hospital and Large Physician Practices, Veradigm, and Unallocated. Certain business units reported within the historical segments have been reallocated into the new segments. Refer to Note 16 “Business Segments” for further discussion on the impact of the change. 

Certain reclassifications were made to prior period amounts in order to conform to the current period presentation. These reclassifications had no impact on the reported consolidated prior period financial results.

Significant Accounting Policies

There have been no changes to our significant accounting policies from those disclosed in our Form 10-K.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2019, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2019-12, “Income Taxes (Topic 740)” (“ASU 2019-12”), which is part of the FASB’s overall simplification initiative to reduce the costs and complexity of applying accounting standards while maintaining or improving the usefulness of the information provided to users of financial statements. ASU 2019-12 simplifies accounting guidance for intraperiod allocations, deferred tax liabilities, year-to-date losses in interim periods, franchise taxes, step-up in tax basis of goodwill, separate entity financial statements and interim recognition of tax laws or rate changes. ASU 2019-12 is effective for public business entities for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2020. We adopted ASU 2019-12 on January 1, 2021, and the adoption did not have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements.

9

Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

In August 2020, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2020-06, “Debt—Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging—Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity” (“ASU 2020-06”). The amendments in ASU 2020-06 simplify the accounting for convertible instruments by removing major separation models required under current GAAP. ASU 2020-06 removes certain settlement conditions that are required for equity contracts to qualify for the derivative scope exceptions and also simplifies the diluted earnings per share calculation in certain areas. The standard is effective for public business entities, excluding entities eligible to be smaller reporting companies as defined by the SEC, for fiscal years and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2021. We are currently evaluating the impact of this accounting guidance.

We do not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective accounting standards, if adopted, will have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

2. Revenue from Contracts with Customers

Our 2 primary revenue streams are (i) software delivery, support and maintenance and (ii) client services. Software delivery, support and maintenance revenue consists of all of our proprietary software sales (either under a perpetual or term license delivery model), subscription-based software sales, transaction-related revenue, the resale of hardware and third-party software and revenue from post-contract client support and maintenance services, which include telephone support services, maintaining and upgrading software and ongoing enhanced maintenance. Client services revenue consists of revenue from managed services solutions, such as private cloud hosting, outsourcing and revenue cycle management, as well as other client services and project-based revenue from implementation, training and consulting services. For some clients, we host the software applications licensed from us using our own or third-party servers. For other clients, we offer an outsourced service in which we assume partial to total responsibility for a healthcare organization’s IT operations using our employees.

At September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, we had capitalized costs to obtain or fulfill a contract of $15.1 million and $16.8 million, respectively, in Prepaid and other current assets and $26.1 million and $27.9 million, respectively, in Other assets. During the three months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, we recognized $5.0 million and $6.0 million, respectively, of amortization expense related to such capitalized costs. During the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, we recognized $15.7 million and $18.5 million, respectively, of amortization expense related to such capitalized costs. The amortization of these capitalized costs to obtain a contract are included in Selling, general and administrative expense within our consolidated statements of operations.

The timing of revenue recognition, billings and cash collections results in billed and unbilled accounts receivable, contract assets and customer advances and deposits. Accounts receivable, net includes both billed and unbilled amounts where the right to receive payment is unconditional and only subject to the passage of time. Contract assets include amounts where revenue recognized exceeds the amount billed to the customer and the right to payment is not solely subject to the passage of time. Deferred revenue includes advanced payments and billings in excess of revenue recognized. Our contract assets and deferred revenue are reported in a net position on an individual contract basis at the end of each reporting period. Contract assets are classified as current or long-term based on the timing of when we expect to complete the related performance obligations and bill the customer. Deferred revenue is classified as current or long-term based on the timing of when we expect to recognize revenue.

The breakdown of revenue recognized based on the origination of performance obligations and elected accounting expedients is presented in the table below:

(In thousands)	Three Months Ended March 31, 2021		Three Months Ended June 30, 2021		Three Months Ended September 30, 2021
Revenue related to deferred revenue balance at beginning of period	$	137,848	$	151,857	$	144,696
Revenue related to new performance obligations satisfied during the period		173,316		158,910		159,149
Revenue recognized under "right-to-invoice" expedient		56,811		62,422		64,820

(In thousands)	Three Months Ended March 31, 2020		Three Months Ended June 30, 2020		Three Months Ended September 30, 2020
Revenue related to deferred revenue balance at beginning of period	$	105,366	$	119,545	$	118,300
Revenue related to new performance obligations satisfied during the period		216,580		195,308		192,658
Revenue recognized under "right-to-invoice" expedient		58,059		54,082		54,313
Reimbursed travel expenses, shipping and other revenue		1,359		369		347
Total revenue	$	381,364	$	369,304	$	365,618

The aggregate amount of contract transaction price related to remaining unsatisfied performance obligations (commonly referred to as “backlog”) represents contracted revenue that has not yet been recognized and includes both deferred revenue and amounts that will be invoiced and recognized as revenue in future periods. Total backlog equaled $3.9 billion as of September 30, 2021, of which we expect to recognize approximately 35% over the next 12 months, and the remaining 65% thereafter.

Revenue Recognition

We recognize revenue only when we satisfy an identified performance obligation (or bundle of obligations) by transferring control of a promised product or service to a customer. We consider a product or service to be transferred when a customer obtains control because a customer has sole possession of the right to use (or the right to direct the use of) the product or service for the remainder of its economic life or to consume the product or service in its own operations. We evaluate the transfer of control primarily from the customer’s perspective as this reduces the risk that revenue is recognized for activities that do not transfer control to the customer.

The majority of our revenue is recognized over time because a customer continuously and simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits of our performance. The exceptions to this pattern are our sales of perpetual and term software licenses, and hardware, where we determined that a customer obtains control of the asset upon granting of access, delivery or shipment.

We disaggregate our revenue from contracts with customers based on the type of revenue and nature of revenue stream, as we believe those categories best depict how the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of our revenue and cash flows are affected by economic factors. The below tables summarize revenue by type and nature of revenue stream as well as by our reportable segments:

Contract Assets – Estimate of Credit Losses

We adopted ASU 2016-13 on January 1, 2020 using the cumulative-effect adjustment transition method. The guidance required the recognition of lifetime estimated credit losses expected to occur for contract assets and trade receivables. The guidance also required that we pool assets with similar risk characteristics and consider current economic conditions when estimating losses. The adoption of ASU 2016-13 for contract assets was recorded as a debit to retained earnings of $5.3 million as of January 1, 2020. Refer to Note 3, “Accounts Receivable”, for the adoption impact related to trade receivables.

At adoption, we segmented the contract asset population into pools based on their risk assessment. Risks related to contract assets are a customer’s inability to pay or bankruptcy. Each pool was defined by an internal credit assessment and business size.  The pools were aligned with management’s review of financial performance at the time. In the fourth quarter of 2020, we used each customer’s primary business unit in our pooling determination. This assessment provides additional information of the customer including size, segment and industry. Using this perspective, we added one new pool. We reallocated pools and loss rates accordingly and noted slight shifts in each pool. The new pools are aligned with management’s current review of financial performance. For the nine months ended September 30, 2021, no adjustment to the pools was necessary.

We utilized a loss-rate method to measure expected credit loss for each pool. The loss rate is calculated using a twenty-four-month lookback period of credit memos and adjustments divided by the average contract asset balance for each pool during that period.  We considered current economic conditions, including how the COVID-19 pandemic is impacting the global economy, internal forecasts, cash collection and credit memos written during the current period when assessing loss rates. We reviewed these factors and concluded that no adjustments should be made to the historical loss rate data. The September 30, 2021 analysis resulted in no change in the ending estimate of credit losses.

Changes in the estimate of credit losses for contract assets are presented in the table below.

3. Accounts Receivable

Trade Accounts Receivable – Estimate of Credit Losses

We adopted ASU 2016-13 on January 1, 2020 using the cumulative-effect adjustment transition method. The guidance required the recognition of lifetime estimated credit losses expected to occur for trade accounts receivable, which resulted in the recording of a debit to retained earnings of $12.6 million as of January 1, 2020. Refer to Note 2, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” for additional information regarding the adoption of ASU 2016-13.

4. Leases

We determine whether an arrangement is a lease at inception. Assets leased under an operating lease arrangement are recorded in Right-of-use assets – operating leases and the associated lease liabilities are included in Current operating lease liabilities and Long-term operating lease liabilities within the consolidated balance sheets. Assets leased under finance lease arrangements are recorded within fixed assets and the associated lease liabilities are recorded within Accrued expenses and Other liabilities within the consolidated balance sheets.

Right-of-use assets represent our right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease right-of-use assets and liabilities are recognized at the commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the expected lease term. Since our lease arrangements do not provide an implicit rate, we use our incremental borrowing rate in conjunction with the market swap rate for the expected remaining lease term at the commencement date for new leases in determining the present value of future lease payments. Our expected lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that we will exercise that option. Operating lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

We have elected the group of practical expedients under ASU 2016-02 to forego assessing upon adoption: (1) whether any expired contracts are or contain leases; (2) the lease classification for any existing or expired leases and (3) any indirect costs that would have qualified for capitalization for any existing leases. We have lease agreements with lease and non-lease components, which are generally accounted for separately except for real estate and vehicle leases, which we have elected to combine through a practical expedient under ASU 2016-02. Non-lease components for our leases typically consist of executory costs, and the practical expedient allows for executory costs to be recorded as lease payments. Additionally, for certain equipment leases, we apply a portfolio approach to effectively record right-of-use assets and liabilities.

Our operating leases mainly include office leases and our finance leases include office and computer equipment leases. Our finance leases are not significant. Our leases have remaining lease terms up to 7 years, some of which include options to extend the leases for up to 5 years, which may include options to terminate the leases within 1 year. Operating costs associated with leased assets are as follows:

(In thousands)	Three Months Ended September 30,						Nine Months Ended September 30,
	2021			2020			2021			2020
Operating lease cost (1)	$	5,366		$	6,251		$	17,063		$	19,265

5. Business Combinations and Divestitures

Acquisitions

On July 2, 2019, we acquired the Pinnacle and Diabetes Collaborative Registries from the American College of Cardiology (“ACC”) as part of our broader strategic partnership with the ACC. The total purchase price was $19.7 million, consisting of an initial payment of $11.7 million plus up to an aggregate of $8.0 million pending the attainment of certain milestones over the next 18 months. The contingent consideration of up to $8.0 million was valued at $5.0 million at the time of closing. As part of this partnership, we operate Pinnacle and Diabetes Collaborative Registries, which extends our EHR-enabled ambulatory network to create a large-scale chronic disease network. During the first quarter of 2021, we extended the ACC earnout agreement to June 30, 2021. In the second quarter of 2021, we paid $0.9 million related to the earnout agreement. The remaining payment was accrued as contingent consideration within our consolidated financial statements. Refer to Note 6, “Fair Value Measurements and Long-term Investments” for additional information regarding the contingent consideration. The business is included in our Veradigm business segment.

Divestitures

On August 23, 2021, we completed the sale of substantially all of the assets of our 2bPrecise business to a third party for a non-controlling interest in the combined entity. We realized a pre-tax gain upon the sale of $8.4 million, which was included in the Gain on sale of businesses, net line in our consolidated statements of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021. The 2bPrecise business was previously reported within our Data, Analytics and Care Coordination segment. However, due to the reportable segment changes in the third quarter of 2021, the historical 2bPrecise business is now presented in our “Unallocated Amounts” category. Refer to Note 16, “Business Segments” for additional information.

On December 31, 2020, we completed the sale of substantially all of the assets of our CarePort business to a subsidiary of WellSky Corp., a Delaware corporation (“WellSky”), pursuant to a purchase agreement (the “CarePort Purchase Agreement”). The total consideration for CarePort was $1.35 billion, which was subject to certain adjustments for liabilities assumed by WellSky and net working capital as described in the CarePort Purchase Agreement. We realized a pre-tax gain upon the sale of $933.9 million, which was included in the Gain on sale of discontinued operations line in our consolidated statements of operations for the year ended December 31, 2020. For the nine months ended September 30, 2021, we recorded a $0.6 million gain that primarily related to net working capital adjustments in the Gain on sale of discontinued operations line in our consolidated statements of operations. The divestiture was treated as a discontinued operation as of December 31, 2020. Refer to Note 15, “Discontinued Operations” for additional information. On December 31, 2020, we repaid $161.0 million of the Term Loan (as defined below) as a result of the sale, which was a mandatory prepayment in accordance with the Second Amended Credit Agreement (as defined below).

On October 15, 2020, we completed the sale of substantially all of the assets of our EPSi^TM business (“EPSi”) to Strata Decision Technology LLC, an Illinois limited liability company (“Strata”), and Roper Technologies, Inc., a Delaware corporation, pursuant to a purchase agreement (the “EPSi Purchase Agreement”). The total consideration for EPSi was $365.0 million, which was subject to certain adjustments for liabilities assumed by Strata and net working capital as described in the EPSi Purchase Agreement. We realized a pre-tax gain upon the sale of $222.6 million, which was included in the Gain on sale of discontinued operations line in our consolidated statements of operations for the year ended December 31, 2020. The divestiture was treated as a discontinued operation as of December 31, 2020. Refer to Note 15, “Discontinued Operations” for additional information. On October 29, 2020, we repaid $19.0 million of the Term Loan (as defined below) as a result of the sale, which was a mandatory prepayment in accordance with the Second Amended Credit Agreement (as defined below).

6. Fair Value Measurements and Long-term Investments

Fair value measurements are based upon observable and unobservable inputs.

Level 1: Inputs are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities at the measurement date.

Level 2: Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets with inputs that are observable, either directly or indirectly. Our Level 2 derivative financial instruments include foreign currency forward contracts valued based upon observable values of spot and forward foreign currency exchange rates.

Level 3: Unobservable inputs are significant to the fair value of the asset or liability, and include situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability. Our Level 3 instrument includes the fair value of contingent consideration related to a completed acquisition. The fair value is based on a discounted cash flow analysis reflecting the likelihood of achieving specified performance measures or events and captures the contractual nature of the contingencies, commercial risk, or time value of money.

The following table summarizes our financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of the respective balance sheet dates:

	Balance Sheet	September 30, 2021								December 31, 2020

Long-term Investments

The following table summarizes our long-term equity investments which are included in Other assets in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets:

	Number of Investees		Original		Carrying Value at

Total long-term equity investments		11	$	56,435	$	59,308	$	35,803

(1) Allscripts share of the earnings of our equity method investees is reported based on a one quarter lag.

15

During the three months ended September 30, 2021, we divested one of our businesses to a new third-party in exchange for a non-controlling interest in the combined entity, which is a cost method investment. The divestiture resulted in an $8.4 million gain, which is included in the Gain on sale of businesses, net line in our consolidated statements of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021. During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, one of our third-party cost method investments converted its notes and we received 475 thousand shares as a result of the conversion. We also revalued our existing investment based on the note conversion share price. The note conversion and the revaluation of the existing investment resulted in a $9.7 million gain, which is included in the Other income (loss), net line in our consolidated statements of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2021.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, we recorded a $16.8 million gain from the sale of a third-party equity method investment.

As of September 30, 2021, it is not possible to estimate the fair value of our non-marketable cost and equity method investments, primarily because of their illiquidity and restricted marketability. The factors we considered in trying to determine fair value include, but are not limited to, available financial information, the issuer’s ability to meet its current obligations, the issuer’s subsequent or planned raises of capital and observable price changes in orderly transactions.

Impairment of Long-term Investments

Each quarter, management performs an assessment of each of our investments on an individual basis to determine if there have been any declines in fair value. Based on our assessment, we determined 0 impairment charges were necessary for the nine months ended September 30, 2021.

Long-term Financial Liabilities

Our long-term financial liabilities include amounts outstanding under our senior secured credit facility (as described in Note 10, “Debt”), with carrying values that approximate fair value since the interest rates approximate current market rates. Refer to Note 10, “Debt,” for further information regarding our long-term financial liabilities.

7. Stockholders' Equity

Stock-based Compensation Expense

Stock-based compensation expense recognized during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020 is included in our consolidated statements of operations as shown in the below table. Stock-based compensation expense includes both non-cash expense related to grants of stock-based awards as well as cash expense related to the employee discount applied to purchases of our common stock under our employee stock purchase plan. NaN stock-based compensation costs were capitalized during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020.

Total stock-based compensation expense	$	10,314	$	10,669	$	32,528	$	29,432

Allscripts Long-Term Incentive Plan

We measure stock-based compensation expense at the grant date based on the fair value of the award. We recognize the expense for service-based share awards over the requisite service period on a straight-line basis, net of estimated forfeitures. We recognize the expense for performance-based and market-based share awards over the vesting period under the accelerated attribution method, net of estimated forfeitures. In addition, we recognize stock-based compensation cost for awards with performance conditions if and when we conclude that it is probable that the performance conditions will be achieved.

The fair value of service-based and performance-based restricted stock units is measured at the underlying closing share price of our common stock on the date of grant. The fair value of market-based restricted stock units is measured using the Monte Carlo pricing model. NaN stock options were granted during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020.

16

We granted stock-based awards as follows:

	Three Months Ended September 30, 2021				Nine Months Ended September 30, 2021
			Weighted-Average				Weighted-Average
			Grant Date				Grant Date
(In thousands, except per share amounts)	Shares		Fair Value		Shares		Fair Value
Service-based restricted stock units		42	$	16.59		2,487	$	15.38
Performance-based restricted stock units with a service condition		33	$	15.35		268	$	15.18
Market-based restricted stock units with a service condition		0	$	0.00		235	$	17.19
		75	$	16.04		2,990	$	15.51

During the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and the year ended December 31, 2020, 2.1 million and 1.9 million shares of common stock, respectively, were issued in connection with the release of restrictions on stock awards. 

Net Share-settlements

Upon vesting, restricted stock units are generally net share-settled to cover the required withholding tax, and the remaining amount is converted into an equivalent number of shares of common stock. The majority of restricted stock units and awards that vested during the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020 were net-share settled such that we withheld shares with fair value equivalent to the employees’ minimum statutory obligation for the applicable income and other employment taxes and remitted the cash to the appropriate taxing authorities. Total payments for the employees' minimum statutory tax obligations to the taxing authorities are reflected as a financing activity within the accompanying consolidated statements of cash flows. The total shares withheld for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020 were 900 thousand and 770 thousand, respectively, and were based on the value of the restricted stock units on their vesting date as determined by our closing stock price. These net-share settlements had the effect of share repurchases by us as they reduced the number of shares that would have otherwise been issued as a result of the vesting.

Stock Repurchases

On November 18, 2020, we announced that our Board approved a stock purchase program (the “2020 Program”) under which we may repurchase up to $300 million of our common stock through December 31, 2021. The 2020 Program replaced a previous program and the 2020 program was fully exhausted by May of 2021. During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, we repurchased 5.6 million shares of our common stock under the 2020 Program, which was inclusive of the shares we received at final settlement of the accelerated share repurchase program we entered into on November 30, 2020, described below. During the three months ended September 30, 2020, we repurchased 5.0 million shares of our common stock under the previous program for a total of $45.6 million. During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, we repurchased 6.5 million shares of our common stock under the previous program for a total of $55.3 million.

On May 26, 2021, we announced that our Board approved a new stock purchase program (the “2021 Program”) under which we may repurchase up to $350 million of our common stock. The 2021 Program replaced the 2020 Program and does not have a termination date. During the three months ended September 30, 2021, we received 2.4 million shares of our common stock at final settlement of the accelerated share repurchase program entered into on June 14, 2021, described below. During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, we repurchased 13.9 million shares of our common stock under the 2021 Program. This is inclusive of the shares we received at initial and final settlement of the accelerated share repurchase program entered into on June 14, 2021, described below.

On November 30, 2020, we entered into separate Master Confirmations (each, a “Master Confirmation”) and Supplemental Confirmations (each, together with the related Master Confirmation, an “ASR Agreement”), with JPMorgan Chase Bank, National Association and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association (each, an “ASR Counterparty”, or collectively, the “ASR Counterparties”), to purchase shares of our common stock for a total payment of $200.0 million (the “Prepayment Amount”). Under the terms of the ASR Agreements, on November 30, 2020, we paid the Prepayment Amount to the ASR Counterparties and received on December 2, 2020 an initial delivery of approximately 11.7 million shares of our common stock, which is approximately 80% of the total number of shares that could be repurchased under the ASR Agreements if the final purchase price per share equaled the closing price of our common stock on November 30, 2020. These repurchased shares became treasury shares and were recorded as a $165.7 million reduction to stockholders’ equity. The remaining $34.3 million of the Prepayment Amount was recorded as a reduction to stockholders’ equity as an unsettled forward contract indexed to our common stock. The total number of shares received under the ASR Agreements, after final settlement, was based on the average daily volume weighted average price of our common stock during the repurchase period, less an agreed upon discount. Final settlement of the ASR Agreements occurred in May 2021, resulting in the receipt of 1.6 million additional shares, which yielded a weighted-average share repurchase price of approximately $15.07.

On June 14, 2021, we entered into Supplemental Confirmations (each, a “June 2021 Supplemental Confirmation”) to the Master Confirmations dated November 30, 2020 (each, as supplemented by the corresponding June 2021 Supplemental Confirmation, a “June 2021 ASR Agreement”), with each of the ASR Counterparties, to purchase shares of our common stock for a total payment of $200.0 million (the “June 2021 Prepayment Amount”). Under the terms of the June 2021 ASR Agreements, on June 14, 2021, we paid the June 2021 Prepayment Amount to the ASR Counterparties and received on June 16, 2021 an initial delivery of approximately 9.1 million shares of our common stock, which is approximately 80% of the total number of shares that could be repurchased under the June 2021 ASR Agreements if the final purchase price per share equaled the closing price of our common stock on June 14, 2021. These repurchased shares became treasury shares and were recorded as a $161.2 million reduction to stockholders’ equity. The remaining $38.8 million of the June 2021 Prepayment Amount was recorded as a reduction to stockholders’ equity as an unsettled forward contract indexed to our common stock. The total number of shares received under the June 2021 ASR Agreements, after final settlement, was based on the average daily volume weighted average price of our common stock during the repurchase period, less an agreed upon discount. Final settlement of the June 2021 ASR Agreements occurred in August 2021, resulting in the receipt of 2.4 million additional shares, which yielded a weighted-average share repurchase price of approximately $17.28.

The approximate dollar value of shares of our common stock that may yet be purchased under the 2021 Program was $108.4 million as of September 30, 2021. Any future stock repurchase transactions may be made through open market transactions, block trades, privately negotiated transactions (including accelerated share repurchase transactions) or other means, subject to market conditions. Any repurchase activity will depend on many factors such as our working capital needs, cash requirements for investments, debt repayment obligations, economic and market conditions at the time, including the price of our common stock, and other factors that we consider relevant. Our stock repurchase program may be accelerated, suspended, delayed or discontinued at any time.

8. Earnings (Loss) Per Share

Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted-average shares of common stock outstanding. For purposes of calculating diluted earnings (loss) per share, the denominator includes both the weighted-average shares of common stock outstanding and dilutive common stock equivalents. Dilutive common stock equivalents consist of restricted stock unit awards and warrants calculated under the treasury stock method.

The calculations of earnings (loss) per share are as follows:

	Three Months Ended September 30,						Nine Months Ended September 30,
(In thousands, except per share amounts)	2021			2020			2021		2020
Basic earnings (loss) per Common Share:

(Loss) income from discontinued operations, net of tax		(14	)		14,498			471		40,503
Net income (loss)	$	16,180		$	542		$	47,163	$	(27,417	)
Weighted-average common shares outstanding		123,892			161,144			133,517		162,092

Income (loss) from continuing operations, net of tax	$	16,194		$	(13,956	)	$	46,692	$	(67,920	)
(Loss) income from discontinued operations, net of tax		(14	)		14,498			471		40,503
Net income (loss)	$	16,180		$	542		$	47,163	$	(27,417	)
Weighted-average common shares outstanding		123,892			161,144			133,517		162,092
Plus: Dilutive effect of restricted stock unit awards and warrants		7,460			0			8,564		0
Weighted-average common shares outstanding assuming dilution		131,352			161,144			142,081		162,092
Diluted earnings (loss) from continuing operations per Common Share	$	0.12		$	(0.09	)	$	0.33	$	(0.42	)
Diluted earnings from discontinued operations per Common Share		0.00			0.09			0.00		0.25
Net earnings (loss) per Common Share	$	0.12		$	0.00		$	0.33	$	(0.17	)

Due to the loss from continuing operations, net of tax and the net loss for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, respectively, we used basic weighted-average common shares outstanding in the calculation of diluted loss per share, since the inclusion of any stock equivalents would be anti-dilutive.

The following restricted stock unit awards and warrants are not included in the computation of diluted earnings (loss) per share as the effect of including such restricted stock unit awards and warrants in the computation would be anti-dilutive:

	Three Months Ended September 30,				Nine Months Ended September 30,
(In thousands)	2021		2020		2021		2020
Shares subject to anti-dilutive restricted stock unit awards and warrants excluded from calculation		1,504		47,162		1,502		48,816

Allscripts Senior Secured Credit Facility

On February 15, 2018, Allscripts and Allscripts Healthcare LLC entered into a Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Second Amended Credit Agreement”), with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent. The Second Amended Credit Agreement provides for a $400 million senior secured term loan (the “Term Loan”) and a $900 million senior secured revolving facility (the “Revolving Facility”), each with a five-year term. The Term Loan was repayable in quarterly installments, which began on June 30, 2018. We repaid the Term Loan in full on December 31, 2020. A total of up to $50 million of the Revolving Facility is available for the issuance of letters of credit, up to $10 million of the Revolving Facility is available for swingline loans, and up to $100 million of the Revolving Facility could be borrowed under certain foreign currencies.

As of September 30, 2021, $200.0 million under the Revolving Facility and $1.0 million in letters of credit were outstanding under the Second Amended Credit Agreement.

As of September 30, 2021, the interest rate on the borrowings under the Second Amended Credit Agreement was LIBOR plus 1.50%, which totaled 1.58%. We were in compliance with all covenants under the Second Amended Credit Agreement as of September 30, 2021.

In connection with the sale of our EPSi business on October 15, 2020, which is further discussed in Note 5, “Business Combinations and Divestitures”, the terms of our Second Amended Credit Agreement required us to make a mandatory prepayment of our Term Loan in the amount of $19.0 million on October 29, 2020.

In connection with the sale of our CarePort business on December 31, 2020, which is further discussed in Note 5, “Business Combinations and Divestitures”, the terms of our Second Amended Credit Agreement required us to make a mandatory prepayment of our Term Loan in the amount of $161.0 million on December 31, 2020.

On August 7, 2019, we entered into a First Amendment to the Second Amended Credit Agreement in order to remain compliant with the covenants of our Second Amended Credit Agreement. The First Amendment provided the financial flexibility to settle the U.S. Department of Justice’s investigations as discussed in Note 14, “Contingencies”, while maintaining our compliance with the covenants of our Second Amended Credit Agreement. None of the original terms of our Second Amended Credit Agreement relating to scheduled future principal payments, applicable interest rates and margins or borrowing capacity under our Revolving Facility were amended.

On July 20, 2020, we entered into a Second Amendment to the Second Amended Credit Agreement. None of the original terms of our Second Amended Credit Agreement relating to scheduled future principal payments, applicable interest rates and margins or borrowing capacity under our Revolving Facility were amended. In connection with this amendment, we incurred fees and other costs totaling $1.4 million, of which a majority was capitalized.

As of September 30, 2021, we had $699.0 million available borrowing capacity, net of outstanding letters of credit, under the Revolving Facility. There can be no assurance that we will be able to draw on the full available balance of the Revolving Facility if the financial institutions that have extended such credit commitments become unwilling or unable to fund such borrowings or if we are unable to maintain compliance with applicable covenants.

0.875% Convertible Senior Notes

The issuance in December 2019 of the combined $218.0  million aggregate principal amount of the 0.875% Convertible Senior Notes resulted in $0.7 million in debt issuance costs, which were paid in January 2020. We have separately recorded liability and equity components of the 0.875% Convertible Senior Notes, including any discounts and issuance costs, by allocating the proceeds from the issuance between the liability component and the embedded conversion option, or equity component. This allocation was completed by first estimating an interest rate at the time of issuance for similar notes that do not include an embedded conversion option. The semi-annual interest rate of 1.95% was used to compute the initial fair value of the liability component, which totaled $177.9  million at the time of issuance. The excess of the initial proceeds received from the 0.875% Convertible Senior Notes and the $177.9 million liability component was allocated to the equity component, which totaled $40.1  million at the time of issuance before deducting any paid capped call fees. The equity component of $40.1 million, the $17.2  million in paid capped call fees and an allocation of $1.1  million in combined discounts and issuance costs were recorded in Additional paid-in capital within the consolidated balance sheets in December 2019. These were recorded as a discount that will be accreted into interest expense through January 1, 2027 using the interest method. In June 2020, we paid $7.7 million to repurchase $10.1 million of the aggregate principal amount of the 0.875% Convertible Senior Notes, which resulted in a $0.5 million gain. In connection with the repurchase, the capped call transaction was partially terminated, and we received $0.3 million, which resulted in a recognition of $0.8 million in equity to offset the capped call fees and a $0.5 million loss. The remaining principal amount of the 0.875% Convertible Senior Notes at September 30, 2021 totaled $207.9 million. The carrying value of the combined equity component, net of capped call fees, issuance costs and accretion, at September 30, 2021 totaled $12.2 million.

Future Debt Payments

The following table summarizes future debt principal payment obligations as of September 30, 2021:

(In thousands)	Total		Remainder of 2021		2022		2023		2024		2025		Thereafter
0.875% Convertible Senior Notes (1)	$	207,911	$	0	$	0	$	0	$	0	$	0	$	207,911

Total debt	$	407,911	$	0	$	0	$	200,000	$	0	$	0	$	207,911

(1) Amount represents face value of the 0.875% Convertible Senior Notes, which includes both the liability and equity portion.

(2) Assumes no additional borrowings after September 30, 2021, payment of any required periodic installments of principal when due and that all drawn amounts are repaid upon maturity.

11. Income Taxes

We account for income taxes under FASB Accounting Standards Codification 740, “Income Taxes” (“ASC 740”). We calculate the quarterly tax provision consistent with the guidance provided by ASC 740, whereby we forecast the estimated annual effective tax rate and then apply that rate to the year-to-date pre-tax book (loss) income. The effective tax rate may be subject to fluctuations during the year as new information is obtained, which may affect the assumptions used to estimate the annual effective rate, including factors such as the valuation allowances against deferred tax assets, the recognition or de-recognition of tax benefits related to uncertain tax positions, or changes in or the interpretation of tax laws in jurisdictions where the Company conducts business. There is no tax benefit recognized on certain of the net operating losses incurred due to insufficient evidence supporting the Company’s ability to use these losses in the future. The effective tax rates were as follows:

	Three Months Ended September 30,						Nine Months Ended September 30,
(In thousands, except effective tax rate)	2021			2020			2021			2020
Income (loss) from continuing operations before income taxes	$	21,293		$	(18,072	)	$	56,646		$	(74,561	)
Income tax (provision) benefit	$	(5,099	)	$	4,116		$	(9,954	)	$	6,641
Effective tax rate		23.9	%		22.8	%		17.6	%		8.9	%

Our provision for income taxes differs from the tax computed at the U.S. federal statutory income tax rate primarily due to permanent differences, income attributable to foreign jurisdictions taxed at different rates, state taxes, tax credits and certain discrete items including a windfall benefit of $4.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and a shortfall expense of $6.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2020. Our effective tax rates for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, compared with the prior year comparable periods, differ primarily due to the fact that the permanent items, credits and the impact of foreign earnings had more impact on the pre-tax income of $21.3 million and $56.6 million in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively, compared to the impact of these items on a pre-tax loss of $18.1 million and $74.6 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, respectively.

In evaluating our ability to recover our deferred tax assets within the jurisdictions from which they arise, we consider all available evidence, including scheduled reversals of deferred tax liabilities, tax-planning strategies, and results of recent operations. In evaluating the objective evidence that historical results provide, we consider three years of cumulative operating income (loss). During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, we released valuation allowances of $0.7 million related to U.S. and foreign net operating loss carryforwards.

Our unrecognized income tax benefits were $29.9 million and $28.9 million as of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. If any portion of our unrecognized tax benefits is recognized, it could impact our effective tax rate. The tax reserves are reviewed periodically and adjusted considering changing facts and circumstances, such as progress of tax audits, lapse of applicable statutes of limitations and changes in tax law.

14. Contingencies

In addition to commitments and obligations in the ordinary course of business, we are currently subject to various legal proceedings and claims that have not been fully adjudicated. We intend to vigorously defend ourselves, as appropriate, in these matters.

No less than quarterly, we review the status of each significant matter and assess our potential financial exposure. We accrue a liability for an estimated loss if the potential loss from any legal proceeding or claim is considered probable and the amount can be reasonably estimated. Significant judgment is required in both the determination of probability and the determination as to whether the amount of an exposure is reasonably estimable, and accruals are based only on the information available to our management at the time the judgment is made.

The outcome of legal proceedings is inherently uncertain, and we may incur substantial defense costs and expenses defending any of these matters. In the opinion of our management, the ultimate disposition of pending legal proceedings or claims will not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, liquidity or results of operations. However, if one or more of these legal proceedings were resolved against or settled by us in a reporting period for amounts in excess of our management’s expectations, our consolidated financial statements for that and subsequent reporting periods could be materially adversely affected. Additionally, the resolution of a legal proceeding against us could prevent us from offering our products and services to current or prospective clients or cause us to incur increased compliance costs, either of which could further adversely affect our operating results.

The Enterprise Information Solutions business (the “EIS Business”) acquired from McKesson Corporation (“McKesson”) on October 2, 2017 is subject to a May 2017 civil investigative demand (“CID”) related to the Horizon Clinicals software from the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Eastern District of New York. In August 2018, McKesson received an additional CID (together with the May 2017 CID, the “McKesson CIDs”), which relates to the Paragon software. The McKesson CIDs request documents and information related to the certification McKesson obtained in connection with the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services’ Electronic Health Record Incentive Program. McKesson has agreed, with respect to the CIDs, to indemnify Allscripts for amounts paid or payable to the government (or any private relator) involving any products or services marketed, sold or licensed by the EIS Business as of or prior to the closing of the acquisition. In October 2021, Allscripts received a CID seeking information about its acquisition of the EIS Business from McKesson and the Horizon Clinicals software. McKesson has agreed to assume defense of this CID.

Practice Fusion, acquired by Allscripts on February 13, 2018, received in March 2017 a request for documents and information from the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the District of Vermont pursuant to a CID. Between April 2018 and June 2019, Practice Fusion received from the U.S. Department of Justice (the “DOJ”) seven additional requests for documents and information through four additional CIDs and three Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (“HIPAA”) subpoenas. The document and information requests received by Practice Fusion related to both the certification Practice Fusion obtained in connection with the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services’ Electronic Health Record Incentive Program and Practice Fusion’s compliance with the Anti-Kickback Statute (“AKS”) and HIPAA as it relates to certain business practices engaged in by Practice Fusion. In March 2019, Practice Fusion received a grand jury subpoena in connection with a criminal investigation related to Practice Fusion’s compliance with the AKS. On August 6, 2019, Practice Fusion reached an agreement in principle with the DOJ to resolve all of the DOJ’s outstanding civil and criminal investigations, including the investigation by the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the District of Vermont, and we announced that on January 27, 2020, Practice Fusion entered into a deferred prosecution agreement (the “Deferred Prosecution Agreement”) and various civil settlement agreements, including with the Medicaid programs for each U.S. state, the District of Columbia and Puerto Rico (collectively, the “Settlement Agreements”) resolving the investigations conducted by the DOJ and the U.S. Attorney’s Office. The Settlement Agreements required Practice Fusion to, among other matters, pay a criminal fine of $25.3 million, a forfeiture payment of $959,700 and a civil settlement of $118.6 million, which includes $5.2 million designated for the state Medicaid program expenditures, all of which, as of December 31, 2020, have been paid in full. The Deferred Prosecution Agreement required Practice Fusion to retain an Oversight Organization to oversee the Practice Fusion’s implementation of certain compliance measures and ongoing compliance efforts. On August 17, 2021, Practice Fusion’s initial Oversight Organization resigned, and on August 25, 2021, Practice Fusion received a notice from the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the District of Vermont stating Practice Fusion was in breach of the Deferred Prosecution Agreement due to such resignation. On September 17, 2021, Practice Fusion engaged a new Oversight Organization, and it continues to engage in discussions with the U.S. Attorney’s Office concerning the claim that a breach of the Deferred Prosecution Agreement occurred.

15. Discontinued Operations

During 2020, we implemented a strategic initiative to sell 2 of our businesses, EPSi and CarePort. Since both businesses were part of the same strategic initiative and were sold within the same period, the combined sale of EPSi and CarePort represented a strategic shift that had a major effect on our operations and financial results. As of December 31, 2020, these businesses were reported together as discontinued operations.

On October 15, 2020, we completed the sale of our EPSi business. Prior to the sale, EPSi was part of the “Unallocated Amounts” category as it did not meet the requirements to be a reportable segment nor the criteria to be aggregated into our two reportable segments. On its own, the divestiture of the EPSi business did not represent a strategic shift that had a major effect on our operations and financial results. However, the combined sale of EPSi and CarePort represented a strategic shift that had a major effect on our operations and financial results. Therefore, EPSi was treated as a discontinued operation.

On December 31, 2020, we completed the sale of our CarePort business. Prior to the sale, CarePort was part of the former Data, Analytics and Care Coordination reportable segment. On its own, the divestiture of the CarePort business represented a strategic shift that had a major effect on our operations and financial results.

The following table summarizes the major classes of assets and liabilities of EPSi and CarePort, as reported on the consolidated balance sheets as of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020:

(In thousands)	September 30, 2021		December 31, 2020

16. Business Segments

We primarily derive our revenues from sales of our proprietary software (either as a direct license sale or under a subscription delivery model), which also serves as the basis for our recurring service contracts for software support and maintenance and certain transaction-related services. In addition, we provide various other client services, including installation, and managed services, such as outsourcing, private cloud hosting and revenue cycle management.

During the third quarter of 2021, we realigned our reporting structure as a result of certain organizational changes. As a result, we changed the presentation of our reportable segments to Hospital and Large Physician Practices and Veradigm. As of September 30, 2021, we had 2 operating segments. The operating segments are equivalent to the reportable segments. The Hospital and Large Physician Practices segment derives its revenue from the sale of integrated clinical and financial management solutions, which primarily include EHR-related software, related installation, support and maintenance, outsourcing and private cloud hosting. The Veradigm segment derives its revenue from payer and life sciences solutions, which are mainly targeted at payers, life sciences companies and other key healthcare stakeholders; the sale of EHR software to single-specialty and small and mid-sized physician practices, including related clinical, financial, administrative and operational solutions; and software applications for patient engagement. These solutions enable clients to transition, analyze, coordinate care and improve the quality, efficiency and value of healthcare delivery across the entire care community. The “Unallocated Amounts” category consists of the 2bPrecise business, certain products that were shifted from the previous Core Clinical and Financial Solutions reportable segment due to the organizational changes (“Certain Products”), transfer pricing revenues and as of January 1, 2021 also includes certain corporate-related expenses. The amounts included in the “Unallocated Amounts” category for 2bPrecise and Certain Products do not meet the requirements to be reportable segments nor the criteria to be aggregated into the two reportable segments. The segment disclosures below have been revised to conform to the current year presentation.

Overview

Our Business Overview and Regulatory Environment

We deliver information technology (“IT”) solutions and services to help healthcare organizations achieve optimal clinical, financial and operational results. We sell our solutions to physicians, hospitals, governments, health systems, health plans, life sciences companies, retail clinics, retail pharmacies, pharmacy benefit managers, insurance companies, employer wellness clinics and post-acute organizations, such as home health and hospice agencies. We help our clients improve the quality and efficiency of health care with solutions that include electronic health records (“EHRs”), information connectivity, private cloud hosting, outsourcing, analytics, patient access and population health management. We derive our revenues primarily from sales of our proprietary software (either as a perpetual license sale or under a subscription delivery model), support and maintenance services, and managed services, such as outsourcing, private cloud hosting and revenue cycle management.

29

Our solutions empower healthcare professionals with the data, insights and connectivity to other caregivers they need to succeed in an industry that is rapidly changing from fee-for-service models to fee-for-value advanced payment models. We believe we offer some of the most comprehensive solutions in our industry today. Healthcare organizations can effectively manage patients and patient populations across all care settings using a combination of our physician, hospital, health system, post-acute care and population health management products and services. We believe these solutions will help transform health care as the industry seeks new ways to manage risk, improve quality and reduce costs.

Globally, healthcare providers continue to face the COVID-19 crisis, as well as an aging population and the challenge of caring for an increasing number of patients with chronic diseases. At the same time, practitioners worldwide are also under growing pressure to demonstrate the delivery of high-quality care at lower costs and to fully embrace expectations of efficient, patient-centered information exchange. Congressional oversight of EHRs and health information technology has increased in recent years. This increased oversight has impacted and could continue to impact our clients and our business. Most recently, the passage of the 21st Century Cures Act in December 2016 assuaged some concerns about interoperability and possible U.S. Food and Drug Administration oversight of EHRs, and the ensuing regulations on data blocking and interoperability were released by the Department of Health and Human Services (“HHS”) in March 2020 and became applicable under Office of the National Coordinator for Health Information Technology oversight in April 2021. Additional regulatory clarity will come with the final rule expected shortly from the HHS Office of the Inspector General. Some aspects of the new regulations will have a significant effect on our business processes and how our clients must exchange patient information. In particular, Allscripts will need to complete development work to satisfy the revised and new certification criterion, and we and our clients will continue making adjustments to business practices associated with information exchange and provision of Electronic Health Information.

Please refer to the section entitled “Our Business Overview and Regulatory Environment” in Part II, Item 7 of our Form 10-K for additional information.

Impacts of COVID-19

The global outbreak of the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) has resulted in volatile economic activity around the world, and the degrees of any economic recovery in various jurisdictions have not been linear. We have been carefully monitoring the COVID-19 pandemic and its impact on our global operations. We are conducting business with certain modifications to employee travel and employee work locations, and have implemented certain cost reduction initiatives, among other modifications. We will continue to actively monitor the situation and may take further actions that alter our business operations as may be required by federal, state or local authorities or that we determine are in the best interests of our employees, customers, partners and stockholders.

Allscripts, along with other health IT vendors, has been asked by the White House, HHS, the CDC, and state and local governments to support public health efforts to contain the pandemic by expanding COVID-19 reporting options available to our clients. Our technology has been instrumental to the provision of high-quality care, aiding not only public health surveillance but also in clinical decision support interventions to aid in triage, diagnosis and treatment; information exchange as patients are moved from site to site and/or discharged; predictive analytics based on local data for surge anticipation and vaccine management; and research based on real-world data informing the world’s evolving understanding of post-acute sequelae of COVID-19 (known colloquially as Long COVID).

However, the COVID-19 pandemic negatively impacted revenue for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, as we continued to see delays in deals with upfront software revenue and professional services implementations across our inpatient and outpatient base. During 2020, we implemented cost reduction actions across all functional disciplines of the Company, including headcount reductions and temporary salary measures. We believe the cost reduction actions that were implemented in 2020 and our current liquidity provide us with operating and financial flexibility to assist us in navigating through this uncertain environment.

The extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic will continue to impact the Company’s results of operations and financial condition will depend on future developments that are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted. Future developments include new information that may emerge concerning the duration and severity of the COVID-19 pandemic, resurgences or additional “waves” of outbreaks of COVID-19 in various jurisdictions (including new lineages of the virus), the impact of COVID-19 on economic activity, the actions taken by health authorities and policy makers to contain its impacts on public health and the global economy, and the availability, effectiveness and public acceptance of vaccines.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

There were no material changes to our critical accounting policies and estimates from those previously disclosed in our Form 10-K.

Third Quarter 2021 Summary

During the third quarter of 2021, we continued to make progress on our key strategic, financial and operational imperatives, which are aimed at driving higher client satisfaction, increasing operating margins, improving our competitive position by expanding the depth and breadth of our products. Additionally, we believe there are still opportunities to continue to improve our operating leverage and further streamline our operations, and such efforts are ongoing.

30

Total revenue for the third quarter of 2021 was $369 million, an increase of $4 million compared to the third quarter of 2020. For the three months ended September 30, 2021, software delivery, support and maintenance revenue and client services revenue were $223 million and $146 million, respectively, compared with $220 million and $146 million, respectively, during the three months ended September 30, 2020. Gross profit for the third quarter of 2021 was $149 million, an increase of $14 million compared to the third quarter of 2020. Gross margin increased to 40.3% in the third quarter of 2021 compared to a 37.0% gross margin in the third quarter of 2020.

Our contract backlog as of September 30, 2021 was $3.9 billion, which decreased compared with our contract backlog of $4.1 billion as of both December 31, 2020 and September 30, 2020.

Our bookings, which reflect the value of executed contracts for software, hardware, other client services, private cloud hosting, outsourcing and subscription-based services, totaled $166 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021, which represents an increase of 4% over the comparable prior period amount of $160 million and a decrease of 8% from the second quarter 2021 amount of $180 million.

Recurring revenue consists of subscription-based software sales, support and maintenance revenue, recurring transactions revenue and recurring revenue from managed services solutions, such as outsourcing, private cloud hosting and revenue cycle management. Non-recurring revenue consists of perpetual software licenses sales, hardware resale and non-recurring transactions revenue, and project-based client services revenue.

Recurring revenue increased for the three months ended September 30, 2021 compared to the prior year comparable period, reflecting increases in recurring transaction-related revenues and subscription revenues, which were mostly offset by attrition. Recurring revenue decreased for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 compared to the prior year comparable period, primarily due to attrition. The decrease was partially offset by an increase in recurring transaction-related revenues and subscription revenues. Non-recurring revenue increased for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 compared to the prior year comparable periods, primarily due to an increase in non-recurring transaction-related revenues. The increase was partially offset by a decrease in upfront software revenues.

The percentage of recurring and non-recurring revenue of our total revenue was 83% and 17%, respectively, during the three months ended September 30, 2021 and 82% and 18%, respectively, during the three months ended September 30, 2020.

Three and Nine Months Ended September 30, 2021 Compared with the Three and Nine Months Ended September 30, 2020

Our provision for income taxes differs from the tax computed at the U.S. federal statutory income tax rate primarily due to permanent differences, income attributable to foreign jurisdictions taxed at different rates, state taxes, tax credits and certain discrete items. Our effective tax rate for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, compared with the prior year comparable periods, differs primarily due to the fact that the permanent items, credits and the impact of foreign earnings had more impact on the pre-tax income of $21.3 million and $56.6 million in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively, compared to the impacts of these items on a pre-tax loss of $18.1 million and $74.6 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, respectively.

In evaluating our ability to recover our deferred tax assets within the jurisdictions from which they arise, we consider all available evidence, including scheduled reversals of deferred tax liabilities, tax-planning strategies, and results of recent operations. In evaluating the objective evidence that historical results provide, we consider three years of cumulative operating income (loss). During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, we released valuation allowances of $0.7 million related to U.S. and foreign net operating loss carryforwards.

Three and Nine Months Ended September 30, 2021 Compared with the Three and Nine Months Ended September 30, 2020

On October 15, 2020 and December 31, 2020, we completed the sale of the EPSi and CarePort businesses, respectively. Prior to the sale of EPSi, it was part of the “Unallocated Amounts” category as it did not meet the requirements to be a reportable segment nor the criteria to be aggregated into our two reportable segments. Prior to the sale of CarePort, it was part of the former Data, Analytics and Care Coordination reportable segment. Both businesses were part of the same strategic initiative and were sold within the same period, and given that the combined sale of EPSi and CarePort represented a strategic shift that had a major effect on our operations and financial results, we reported them together as discontinued operations for all periods presented. The (loss) income from discontinued operations during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 represents income generated from both EPSi and CarePort. The gain on sale of discontinued operations during the nine months ended September 30, 2021 primarily represents net working capital adjustments to the gain from the sale of CarePort. Refer to Note 15, “Discontinued Operations” of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q for further information regarding discontinued operations.

Segment Operations

During the third quarter of 2021, we changed our reportable segments from Core Clinical and Financial Solutions, Data, Analytics and Care Coordination, and Unallocated to Hospital and Large Physician Practices, Veradigm, and Unallocated.

Nine Months Ended September 30, 2021 Compared with the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2020

Net cash provided by operating activities – continuing operations increased during the nine months ended September 30, 2021 compared with the prior year comparable period. The change from net loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 to net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 reflects cost savings related to the cost reduction initiatives implemented throughout 2020, the distribution received from the Practice Fusion escrow account related to the settlement agreements with the DOJ, the investment gain and distributions received from our third-party cost method investments, the gain from the sale of our 2bPrecise business and lower interest expense, due to the repayment of the 1.25% Cash Convertible Senior Notes and the senior secured credit facility in the third and fourth quarters of 2020, respectively. Net income (loss) and cash impact of changes in operating assets and liabilities for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 reflects $89 million of payments related to the settlement agreements with the DOJ. The increase in cash impact of changes in operating assets and liabilities for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 was partially offset by working capital changes. Non-cash adjustments to net income (loss) decreased primarily due to the gain from the sale of our 2bPrecise business and lower depreciation and amortization expense. The decrease was partially offset due to the absence of equity in net income of unconsolidated investments and the asset impairment charges related to our private cloud hosting operations.

The change from net cash provided by operating activities – discontinued operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 to net cash used in operating activities – discontinued operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 was primarily due to the tax payment relating to the gain from the sale of CarePort on December 31, 2020. Additionally, both EPSi and CarePort generated cash from operations during the nine months ended September 30, 2020.

Nine Months Ended September 30, 2021 Compared with the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2020

Net cash used in investing activities – continuing operations decreased during the nine months ended September 30, 2021, compared with the prior year comparable period. The decrease in the use of cash during 2021 was primarily due to a decrease in capitalized software costs, a decrease in capital expenditures and the receipt of distributions from a third-party cost method investment. The decrease was partially offset by a decrease in the sale of investments.

Net cash used in investing activities – discontinued operations during the nine months ended September 30, 2020 reflects spending for capital expenditures and capitalized software costs related to the EPSi and CarePort businesses that were sold during the fourth quarter of 2020.

The change from net cash provided by financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 to net cash used in financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 was primarily a result of the payment made pursuant to the accelerated share repurchase program, the repurchase of common stock on the open market and lower credit facility borrowings in 2021, partially offset by lower credit facility payments in 2021 and the repayment of convertible senior notes in 2020.

(1) Amount represents the face value of the 0.875% Convertible Senior Notes, which includes both the liability and equity portions.

(2) Assumes no additional borrowings after September 30, 2021, payment of any required periodic installments of principal when due and that all drawn amounts are repaid upon maturity. Amounts include fees related to the unused available borrowing capacity on the Revolving Facility.

(3) Assumes LIBOR plus the applicable margin remain constant at the rate in effect on September 30, 2021, which was 1.58%.

Other Matters Affecting Future Capital Requirements

Our total investment in research and development is expected to decline in 2021 as the Company continues to benefit from margin improvement initiatives that commenced in 2020. Our total spending consists of research and development costs directly recorded to expense, which are offset by the capitalization of eligible development costs.

We believe that our cash and cash equivalents of $216 million as of September 30, 2021, our future cash flows, our borrowing capacity under our Revolving Facility and access to capital markets, taken together, provide adequate resources to meet future operating needs as well as scheduled payments of short and long-term debt. We cannot provide assurance that our actual cash requirements will not be greater than we expect as of the date of this Form 10-Q. We will, from time to time, consider the acquisition of, or investment in, complementary businesses, products, services and technologies and the repurchase of our common stock under our stock repurchase program, any of which might impact our liquidity requirements or cause us to borrow additional amounts under our Revolving Facility or issue additional equity or debt securities.

Contractual Obligations, Commitments and Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We have various contractual obligations, which are recorded as liabilities in our consolidated financial statements. During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, there were no material changes, outside of the ordinary course of business, to our contractual obligations and purchase commitments previously disclosed in our Form 10-K.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Our market risk disclosures set forth in Part II, Item 7A, “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk” of our Form 10-K have not changed materially during the nine months ended September 30, 2021.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined under Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated under the Exchange Act, as of the end of the period covered by this Form 10-Q.

Based on management’s evaluation, our chief executive officer and our chief financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to, and were effective as of September 30, 2021 to, provide assurance at a reasonable level that the information we are required to disclose in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, as appropriate, to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended September 30, 2021, which were identified in connection with management’s evaluation required by paragraph (d) of Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15 under the Exchange Act, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

We hereby incorporate by reference Note 14, “Contingencies,” of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

Except as follows, there have been no other material changes during the nine months ended September 30, 2021 from the risk factors as previously disclosed in our Form 10-K.

The failure by Practice Fusion to comply with the terms of its settlement agreements with the U.S. Department of Justice (the “DOJ”) could have a material and adverse impact on our business, results of operations and financial condition, and, even if Practice Fusion complies with those settlement agreements, the costs and burdens of compliance could be significant, and we may face additional investigations and proceedings from other governmental entities or third parties related to the same or similar conduct underlying the agreements with the DOJ.

On January 27, 2020, we announced that our subsidiary Practice Fusion entered into a series of agreements to resolve an investigation conducted by the DOJ and the U.S. Attorney for the District of Vermont. See the risk factor entitled “We have acquired and expect to acquire new companies, investments or technologies, which are subject to significant risks.” Practice Fusion has entered a three-year deferred prosecution agreement with the U.S. Attorney for the District of Vermont (“Deferred Prosecution Agreement”) and a civil settlement agreement with the DOJ (“Civil Settlement Agreement”), and has entered into separate civil settlement agreements with the Medicaid programs for each U.S. state, the District of Columbia and Puerto Rico (“State Settlement Agreements” and, together with the Deferred Prosecution Agreement and the Civil Settlement Agreement, the “Settlement Agreements”).

Under the Deferred Prosecution Agreement, Practice Fusion consented to the filing of a two count criminal information: one felony count of violating the Anti-Kickback Statute and one felony count of conspiracy to violate the Anti-Kickback Statute. The Deferred Prosecution Agreement required Practice Fusion to pay a criminal fine of $25.3 million and a forfeiture payment of $959,700, both of which have been paid in full, and for the Company and Practice Fusion to regularly review and certify compliance with the Deferred Prosecution Agreement. Practice Fusion also agreed to implement Additional Civil Compliance Terms, which include the appointment of an Oversight Organization and the implementation of compliance measures set forth in a Compliance Addendum, each as described further in the Deferred Prosecution Agreement. The Oversight Organization Mandate requires Practice Fusion to retain an Oversight Organization selected by the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the District of Vermont for three years. The Oversight Organization is required to take steps to provide reasonable assurance that Practice Fusion establishes and maintains compliance systems, controls and processes reasonably designed, implemented and operated to ensure Practice Fusion’s compliance with the terms of the Deferred Prosecution Agreement, including the Compliance Addendum, as well as reducing the risk of any recurrence of misconduct as described in the information and statement of facts. The Compliance Addendum also required Practice Fusion to, within 90 days of the execution of the Deferred Prosecution Agreement, implement and maintain a Sponsored Clinical Decision Support (“CDS”) Compliance Program that sets procedures and systems to review all current or future Sponsored CDSs on the Practice Fusion electronic health records system. Practice Fusion is subject to the Compliance Addendum for a three-year period from the effective date of the Deferred Prosecution Agreement.

Practice Fusion also entered into the Civil Settlement Agreement to resolve allegations by the DOJ that false claims were submitted to governmental healthcare programs. The Civil Settlement Agreement required Practice Fusion to pay a civil settlement of $118.6 million, which included $5.2 million designated for the state Medicaid program expenditures and has been paid in full. In addition, Practice Fusion entered into the State Settlement Agreements to resolve Medicaid claims under state law analogues to the federal False Claims Act. The financial terms of the State Settlement Agreements are substantially similar to those set forth in the Civil Settlement Agreement.

See Note 14, “Contingencies,” to our consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1, “Financial Statements” of this Form 10-Q for additional information.

40

Compliance with the terms of the Settlement Agreements has imposed and could continue to impose significant costs and burdens on us. For instance, on August 25, 2021, Practice Fusion received a notice from the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the District of Vermont stating Practice Fusion was in breach of the Deferred Prosecution Agreement after Practice Fusion’s Initial Oversight Organization resigned. On September 17, 2021, Practice Fusion engaged a new Oversight Organization, and it is currently engaged in discussions with the U.S. Attorney’s Office concerning the claim that a breach of the Deferred Prosecution Agreement occurred. The failure by Practice Fusion to comply with any Settlement Agreement may result in the DOJ imposing substantial monetary penalties, excluding Practice Fusion from Medicare, Medicaid and other federal healthcare programs, and/or criminally prosecuting Practice Fusion, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.  

Other government investigations or legal or regulatory proceedings, including investigations or proceedings brought by private litigants or shareholders, federal agencies, private insurers and states’ attorneys general, may follow as a consequence of our entry into the Settlement Agreement or the existing government investigation of our EIS Business, which could result in criminal liability, the imposition of damages or non-monetary relief, significant compliance, litigation or settlement costs, other losses, or a diversion of management’s attention from other business concerns and have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. For example, Practice Fusion has received requests for documents and information from the Attorneys General of several states arising from the conduct at issue in the Settlement Agreements. We may also be subject to negative publicity related to these matters that could harm our reputation, reduce demand for our solutions and services, result in employee attrition and negatively impact our stock price.

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds

On May 26, 2021, we announced that our Board of Directors approved a new stock purchase program (the “2021 Program”) under which we may repurchase up to $350 million of our common stock. The 2021 Program replaced a previous program and does not have a termination date. During the three months ended September 30, 2021, we received 2.4 million shares of our common stock at final settlement of the accelerated share repurchase program entered into on June 14, 2021, described below. We did not repurchase any shares on the open market during the three months ended September 30, 2021.

On June 14, 2021, we entered into Supplemental Confirmations (each, a “June 2021 Supplemental Confirmation”) to the separate Master Confirmations (each, a “Master Confirmation”) dated November 30, 2020 (each, as supplemented by the corresponding June 2021 Supplemental Confirmation, a “June 2021 ASR Agreement”), with JPMorgan Chase Bank, National Association and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association (each, an “ASR Counterparty”, or collectively, the “ASR Counterparties”), to purchase shares of our common stock for a total payment of $200.0 million (the “June 2021 Prepayment Amount”). Under the terms of the June 2021 ASR Agreements, on June 14, 2021, we paid the June 2021 Prepayment Amount to the ASR Counterparties and received on June 16, 2021 an initial delivery of approximately 9.1 million shares of our common stock, which is approximately 80% of the total number of shares that could be repurchased under the June 2021 ASR Agreements if the final purchase price per share equaled the closing price of our common stock on June 14, 2021. The total number of shares received under the June 2021 ASR Agreements, after final settlement, was based on the average daily volume weighted average price of our common stock during the repurchase period, less an agreed upon discount. Final settlement of the June 2021 ASR Agreements occurred in August 2021, resulting in the receipt of 2.4 million additional shares, which yielded a weighted average share repurchase price of approximately $17.28.

Any future stock repurchase transactions may be made through open market transactions, block trades, privately negotiated transactions (including accelerated share repurchase transactions) or other means, subject to market conditions. Any repurchase activity will depend on many factors such as our working capital needs, cash requirements for investments, debt repayment obligations, economic and market conditions at the time, including the price of our common stock, and other factors that we consider relevant. Our stock repurchase program may be accelerated, suspended, delayed or discontinued at any time.

41

The following table summarize the stock repurchase activity during the three months ended September 30, 2021 and the approximate dollar value of shares that may yet be purchased under our stock repurchase program:

(2) Excludes broker commissions in the case of open market transactions, if any.

(3) Shares represent the final settlement shares received from the accelerated share repurchase program, described above. The receipt of these shares did not impact the approximate dollar value of shares that may yet be purchased under the plans or programs as these shares were already paid for as part of the June 2021 Prepayment Amount.
