Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] | |
Basis of Presentation | Note 1—Basis of Presentation The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). These accounting principles were applied on a basis consistent with those of the audited consolidated financial statements contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on February 26, 2015 (the “2014 Form 10-K”). In the opinion of the Company, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring adjustments, except as noted elsewhere in the notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements) necessary for a fair statement of its financial position as of September 30, 2015, the results of its operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 and its cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014. These statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for annual financial statements. The financial statements contained herein should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and footnotes as of and for the year ended December 31, 2014, which were included in the 2014 Form 10-K. The December 31, 2014 consolidated balance sheet data were derived from audited financial statements but do not include all disclosures required by GAAP for annual financial statements. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 are not necessarily indicative of the expected results for any subsequent quarters or the full year. In connection with the acquisition of Advent and the related increase in term license revenues, the Company condensed its presentation of revenues on its Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income to illustrate its two types of revenue streams: recurring revenues and non-recurring revenues. Recent Accounting Pronouncements In September 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2015-16 (ASU 2015-16), Simplifying the Accounting for Measurement-Period Adjustments. The amendments in this Update require that an acquirer recognize adjustments to provisional amounts that are identified during the measurement period in the reporting period in which the adjustment amounts are determined. The amendments in this Update require that the acquirer record, in the same period’s financial statements, the effect on earnings of changes in depreciation, amortization, or other income effects, if any, as a result of the change to the provisional amounts, calculated as if the accounting had been completed at the acquisition date. For public business entities, the amendments in this Update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard on its financial position, results of operations and cash flows. In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-03, Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs. This ASU more closely aligns the treatment of debt issuance costs with debt discounts and premiums and requires debt issuance costs be presented as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of the related debt. The amendments in this ASU are effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015 and interim periods within those fiscal years, and retrospective application is required once adopted. As early adoption is permitted, the Company adopted this standard in the third quarter of 2015, which resulted in a reclassification of $19.2 million of deferred financing fees from intangible and other assets to a reduction in long-term debt, net of current portion in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2014. As of September 30, 2015, deferred financing fees of $55.8 million were recorded as a reduction in long-term debt, net of current portion, in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. The change does not impact the results of operations or cash flows. In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-15, Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern. This ASU establishes specific guidance to an organization’s management on their responsibility to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about the organization’s ability to continue as a going concern. The provisions of ASU 2014-15 are effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016. This ASU is not expected to have an impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows. In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). The objective of ASU 2014-09 is to clarify the principles for recognizing revenue by removing inconsistencies and weaknesses in revenue requirements; providing a more robust framework for addressing revenue issues; improving comparability of revenue recognition practices across entities, industries, jurisdictions and capital markets; and providing more useful information to users of financial statements through improved revenue disclosure requirements. The guidance was initially effective January 1, 2017 and early adoption was not permitted. In July 2015, the FASB approved a one-year deferral of the effective date to January 1, 2018, with an option of applying the standard on the original effective date. As a result, the provisions of this ASU are now effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard on its financial position, results of operations and cash flows. |

Debt | Note 3—Debt At September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, debt consisted of the following (in thousands): September 30, 2015 December 31, Senior secured credit facilities, weighted-average interest rate of 3.89% $ 2,300,000 $ — 5.875% senior notes due 2023 600,000 — Prior facility, weighted-average interest rate of 2.93% — 645,000 Unamortized original issue discount and debt issuance costs (71,058 ) (25,262 ) 2,828,942 619,738 Less current portion of long-term debt 33,000 20,470 Long-term debt $ 2,795,942 $ 599,268 Senior Secured Credit Facilities On July 8, 2015, in connection with its acquisition of Advent Software, Inc. (“Advent”), the Company entered into a credit agreement with SS&C, SS&C European Holdings S.A.R.L., an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of SS&C (“SS&C Sarl”) and SS&C Technologies Holdings Europe S.A.R.L., an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of SS&C (“SS&C Tech Sarl”) as the borrowers (“Credit Agreement”). The Credit Agreement has four tranches of term loans (together the “Term Loans”): (i) a $98 million term A-1 facility with a five year term for borrowings by SS&C Sarl (“Term A-1 Loan”); (ii) a $152 million term A-2 facility with a five year term for borrowings by SS&C Tech Sarl (“Term A-2 Loan”); (iii) a $1.82 billion term B-1 facility with a seven year term for borrowings by SS&C (“Term B-1 Loan”); and (iv) a $410 million term B-2 facility with a seven year term for borrowings by SS&C Sarl (“Term B-2 Loan”). In addition, the Credit Agreement has a revolving credit facility with a five year term available for borrowings by SS&C with $150 million in commitments (“Revolving Credit Facility”). The Revolving Credit Facility contains a $25 million letter of credit sub-facility, of which $0 has been drawn. The Term Loans and Revolving Credit Facility bear interest, at the election of the borrowers, at the base rate (as defined in the Credit Agreement) or LIBOR, plus the applicable interest rate margin for the credit facility. The Term A-1 Loan, Term A-2 Loan and the Revolving Credit Facility initially bear interest at either LIBOR plus 2.75% or at the base rate plus 1.75%, and are subject to a step-down at any time SS&C’s consolidated net senior secured leverage ratio is less than 3.0 times, to 2.50% in the case of the LIBOR margin and 1.50% in the case of the base rate margin. The Term B-1 Loan and Term B-2 Loan initially bear interest at either LIBOR plus 3.25%, with LIBOR subject to a 0.75% floor, or at the base rate plus 2.25%, and are subject to a step-down at any time SS&C’s consolidated net leverage ratio is less than 4.0 times, to 3.00% in the case of the LIBOR margin and 2.00% in the case of the base rate margin. A portion of the initial proceeds from the Term Loans was used to satisfy the consideration required to fund the acquisition of Advent and to repay all amounts outstanding under the Company’s then-existing credit facility (“Prior Facility”), which was subsequently terminated. At the time of the termination of the Prior Facility, all liens and other security interests that SS&C had granted to the lenders under the Prior Facility were released. The refinancing of the Prior Facility was evaluated in accordance with FASB Accounting Standards Codification 470-50, Debt-Modifications and Extinguishments, for modification and extinguishment accounting. The Company accounted for the refinancing as a debt modification with respect to amounts that remained obligations of the same lender in the syndicate with minor changes in cash flows and as a debt extinguishment with respect to amounts that were obligations of lenders that exited the syndicate or remained in the syndicate but experienced a change in cash flows of greater than 10%. See Loss on extinguishment of debt The Company is required to make scheduled quarterly payments of 0.25% of the original principal amount of the Term B-1 Loan and Term B-2 Loan, with the balance due and payable on the seventh anniversary of its incurrence. The Company is required to make scheduled quarterly payments of 1.25% of the original principal amount of the Term A-1 Loan and Term A-2 Loan until September 30, 2017 and quarterly payments of 2.50% of the original principal amount of the Term A-1 Loan and Term A-2 Loan from December 31, 2017 until June 30, 2020 with the balance due and payable on the fifth anniversary of the incurrence thereof. No amortization is required under the Revolving Credit Facility. The Company’s obligations under the Term Loans are guaranteed by (i) Holdings and each of its existing and future U.S. wholly-owned restricted subsidiaries, in the case of the Term B-1 Loan and the Revolving Credit Facility and (ii) Holdings, SS&C and each of its existing and future wholly-owned restricted subsidiaries, in the case of the Term A-1 Loan, the Term A-2 Loan and the Term B-2 Loan. The obligations of the U.S. loan parties under the Credit Agreement are secured by substantially all of the assets of such persons (subject to customary exceptions and limitations), including a pledge of all of the capital stock of substantially all of the U.S. wholly-owned restricted subsidiaries of such persons (with customary exceptions and limitations) and 65% of the capital stock of certain foreign restricted subsidiaries of such persons (with customary exceptions and limitations). All obligations of the non-U.S. loan parties under the Credit Agreement are secured by substantially all of Holdings’ and the other guarantors’ assets (subject to customary exceptions and limitations), including a pledge of all of the capital stock of substantially all of Holdings’ wholly-owned restricted subsidiaries (with customary exceptions and limitations). The Credit Agreement includes negative covenants that, among other things and subject to certain thresholds and exceptions, limit the Company’s ability and the ability of its restricted subsidiaries to incur debt or liens, make investments (including in the form of loans and acquisitions), merge, liquidate or dissolve, sell property and assets, including capital stock of its subsidiaries, pay dividends on its capital stock or redeem, repurchase or retire its capital stock, alter the business the Company conducts, amend, prepay, redeem or purchase subordinated debt, or engage in transactions with its affiliates. The Credit Agreement also contains customary representations and warranties, affirmative covenants and events of default, subject to customary thresholds and exceptions. In addition, the Credit Agreement contains a financial covenant for the benefit of the Revolving Credit Facility as well as the Term A-1 Loan and the Term A-2 Loan, requiring the Company to maintain a consolidated net senior secured leverage ratio. As of September 30, 2015, the Company was in compliance with the financial and non-financial covenants. Senior Notes On July 8, 2015, in connection with the acquisition of Advent, the Company issued $600.0 million aggregate principal amount of 5.875% Senior Notes due 2023 (“Senior Notes”). The Senior Notes are guaranteed by SS&C and each of the Company’s wholly-owned domestic subsidiaries that borrows or guarantees obligations under the Credit Agreement. The guarantees are full and unconditional and joint and several. The Senior Notes are unsecured senior obligations that are equal in right of payments to all existing and future senior debt, including the Credit Agreement. The Company is required to use commercially reasonable efforts to file with the SEC an exchange offer registration statement pursuant to which the Company will offer in exchange for the Senior Notes, new notes identical in all material respects to the Senior Notes, and cause the exchange offer registration statement to be declared effective within 365 days following the issuance of the Senior Notes. If the Company is not able to complete the exchange offer registration statement in the period stated or at all (or a shelf registration statement with the SEC to cover resales of the Senior Notes is not declared effective), the interest rate on the notes will increase 0.25% per year. The amount of additional interest will increase an additional 0.25% per year for any subsequent 90-day period in which the Company has not yet completed and have declared effective a registration statement, up to a maximum additional interest rate of 1.00% per year. At any time after July 15, 2018, the Company may redeem some or all of the Senior Notes, in whole or in part, at the redemption prices set forth in the indenture governing the Senior Notes plus accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption date. At any time on or before July 15, 2018, the Company may to redeem up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount of the Senior Notes at a redemption price equal to 105.875% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption date, with the net proceeds of one or more equity offerings. The indenture governing the Senior Notes contains a number of covenants that restrict, subject to certain thresholds and exceptions, the Company’s ability and the ability of its restricted subsidiaries to incur debt or liens, make certain investments, pay dividends, repurchase or redeem subordinated debt, dispose of certain assets, engage in mergers or acquisitions or engage in transactions with its affiliates. Any event of default under the Credit Agreement that leads to an acceleration of those amounts due also results in a default under the indenture governing the Senior Notes. As of September 30, 2015, there were $600.0 million in principal amount of Senior Notes outstanding. Debt issuance costs In connection with the Credit Agreement and the Senior Notes, the Company capitalized an aggregate of $45.8 million in financing costs. Capitalized financing costs of $2.1 million and $1.1 million were amortized to interest expense in the three months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. Capitalized financing costs of $4.3 million and $3.3 million were amortized to interest expense in the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

Loss on extinguishment of debt The Company recorded a $30.4 million loss on extinguishment of debt in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 in connection with the repayment and termination of its Prior Facility.

Recurring and non-recurring revenues | Note 5—Recurring and non-recurring revenues In connection with the acquisition of Advent and the related increase in term license revenues, the Company condensed its presentation of revenues on its Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income to illustrate its two types of revenue streams: recurring revenues and non-recurring revenues. Recurring revenues consist of software-enabled services, term licenses and perpetual maintenance. Non-recurring revenues consist of professional services and perpetual licenses. The Company’s prior presentation required that revenues from term license agreements be allocated between license revenue and maintenance revenue, with the license portion being reported together with revenue from perpetual license agreements as “Software licenses”, and the maintenance portion being reported together with maintenance revenue related to perpetual licenses as “Maintenance”. The Company reclassified $2.1 million from “Software licenses” and $0.9 million from “Maintenance” to “Term licenses” for the three months ended September 30, 2014. The Company reclassified $7.1 million from “Software licenses” and $2.5 million from “Maintenance” to “Term licenses” for the nine months ended September 30, 2014. The revised presentation better illustrates the nature of the Company’s revenues, as the prior presentation did not clearly indicate the recurring nature of the license portion of revenue from term license agreements. The Company has not changed its accounting methods for revenue recognition. The following is a summary of recurring and non-recurring revenues (in thousands): Three Months Ended September 30, Nine Months Ended September 30, 2015 2014 2015 2014 Software-enabled services $ 180,744 $ 149,285 $ 484,434 $ 440,215 Term licenses 30,708 3,023 41,935 9,620 Perpetual maintenance 49,389 24,727 117,114 74,272 Total recurring revenues $ 260,841 $ 177,035 $ 643,483 $ 524,107 Professional services $ 13,546 $ 8,522 $ 33,388 $ 23,542 Perpetual licenses 6,507 7,041 22,526 19,481 Total non-recurring revenues $ 20,053 $ 15,563 $ 55,914 $ 43,023 |

Income Taxes | Note 6—Income Taxes The effective tax rate was 16% and 18% for the three months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively, and the effective tax rate was 35% and 26% for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. The change for the three months ended September 30, 2015 was primarily due to the benefit received from a decrease in pre-tax income from domestic operations taxed at a high statutory rate, partially offset by the unfavorable impact of nondeductible transaction costs and the repatriation of foreign income. The change for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 was primarily due to the impact of nondeductible transaction costs, repatriation of foreign income, and decreased earnings of foreign operations, relative to the decrease in pre-tax book income. Included in the allocation of the purchase price for the acquisition of Advent, the Company recorded i) a net deferred tax liability of $431.2 million related to the acquired intangible assets for which amortization will not be deductible for tax purposes and ii) unrecognized tax benefits of $14.6 million. The Company’s unrecognized tax benefits relate to certain Federal and State tax incentives and are recorded in long term liabilities. |

Earnings Per Share [Abstract] | |
Earnings per Share | Note 7—Earnings per Share Earnings per share (“EPS”) is calculated in accordance with the relevant accounting standards. Basic EPS includes no dilution and is computed by dividing income available to the Company’s common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common and common equivalent shares outstanding during the period. Common equivalent shares consist of stock options and restricted stock using the treasury stock method. Common equivalent shares are excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share if the effect of including such common equivalent shares is anti-dilutive because their exercise prices together with other assumed proceeds exceed the average fair value of common stock for the period. The Company has two classes of common stock, each with identical participation rights to earnings and liquidation preferences, and therefore the calculation of EPS as described above is identical to the calculation under the two-class method. The following table sets forth the weighted average common shares used in the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share (in thousands): Three Months Ended September 30, Nine Months Ended September 30, 2015 2014 2015 2014 Weighted average common shares outstanding 96,853 83,532 88,886 83,127 Weighted average common stock equivalents – options and restricted shares — 3,860 4,349 3,998 Weighted average common and common equivalent shares outstanding 96,853 87,392 93,235 87,125 Weighted average stock options, stock appreciation rights (“SARs”), restricted stock units (“RSUs”) and restricted stock to purchase 14,403,354 and 1,721,503 shares were outstanding for the three months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively, and weighted average stock options, SARs and RSUs to purchase 3,109,860 and 1,790,459 shares were outstanding for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively, but were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share because the effect of including the options would be anti-dilutive. No dilutive securities have been included in the diluted EPS calculation for the three months ended September 30, 2015 due to the Company’s reported net loss for the quarter. |

The awards were converted into rights to receive SS&C common stock. All other terms and conditions of the awards remained unchanged. During the three months ended September 30, 2015, the Company recognized stock-based compensation expense of $18.8 million related to these assumed awards, of which $11.1 million related to one-time charges for the accelerated vesting of certain awards. A summary of stock option and SAR activity as of and for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 is as follows (in thousands): Shares of Common Outstanding at January 1, 2015 11,720,648 Granted 1,137,950 Equity awards assumed from Advent 2,480,953 Cancelled/forfeited (331,790 ) Exercised (868,949 ) Outstanding at September 30, 2015 14,138,812 A summary of RSU activity as of and for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 is as follows (in thousands): Number of Shares Outstanding at January 1, 2015 — Equity awards assumed from Advent 659,760 Cancelled/forfeited (24,689 ) Vested (95,612 ) Outstanding at September 30, 2015 539,459 The Company recorded $11.1 million and $10.7 million of income tax benefits related to the exercise of stock options during the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

Acquisitions | Note 9—Acquisitions Varden Technologies On September 1, 2015, SS&C purchased the assets of Varden for approximately $25.3 million, plus the costs of effecting the transaction and the assumption of certain liabilities. Varden provides cloud-based client and advisor communication solutions for investment firms. The net assets and results of operations of Varden have been included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements from September 1, 2015. The fair value of the intangible assets, consisting of customer relationships, completed technology, trade name and a non-compete agreement, was determined using the income approach. Specifically, the relief-from-royalty method was utilized for the completed technology and trade name, the excess earnings method was utilized for the customer relationships and the lost profits method was utilized for the non-compete agreement. The intangible assets are amortized each year based on the ratio that the projected cash flows for the intangible assets bear to the total of current and expected future cash flows for the intangible assets. The completed technology is amortized over approximately eight years, customer relationships and trade name are amortized over approximately ten years and the non-compete agreement is amortized over approximately three years, in each case the estimated lives of the assets. The remainder of the purchase price was allocated to goodwill and is tax deductible. Advent Software, Inc. On July 8, 2015, the Company purchased all of the outstanding stock of Advent for approximately $2.6 billion in cash, equating to $44.25 per share plus $14.8 million in costs, fees and expenses associated with the transaction, in part, using the equity and debt financing discussed in Notes 2 and 3. Advent provides software and services for the global investment management industry. The net assets and results of operations of Advent have been included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements from July 8, 2015. The fair value of the intangible assets, consisting of customer relationships, completed technology and trade name, was determined using the income approach. Specifically, the relief-from-royalty method was utilized for the completed technology and trade name, and the excess earnings method was utilized for the customer relationships. The intangible assets are amortized each year based on the ratio that the projected cash flows for the intangible assets bear to the total of current and expected future cash flows for the intangible assets. The completed technology is amortized over approximately twelve years, customer relationships are amortized over approximately twelve years and trade name is amortized over approximately ten years, in each case the estimated lives of the assets. The remainder of the purchase price was allocated to goodwill and is not tax deductible. The following summarizes the preliminary allocation of the purchase price for the acquisitions of Varden and Advent (in thousands): Varden Advent Accounts receivable $ 1,186 $ 57,326 Fixed assets 26 22,286 Other assets 34 14,998 Acquired customer relationships and contracts 9,000 823,000 Completed technology 3,700 311,000 Trade name 300 18,000 Non-compete agreement 100 — Goodwill 12,815 1,955,872 Deferred revenue (827 ) (90,126 ) Deferred income taxes — (431,158 ) Other liabilities assumed (3,200 ) (85,696 ) Consideration paid, net of cash received $ 23,134 $ 2,595,502 The consideration paid, net of cash acquired for Advent above includes $11.7 million of non-cash consideration related to the fair value of unvested acquired equity awards with a pre-acquisition service period. This amount is excluded from “Cash paid for business acquisitions, net of cash acquired” for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows. The consideration paid, net of cash acquired for DST Global Solutions (“DSTGS”) as disclosed in the footnotes of the Company’s 2014 Form 10-K included an estimated working capital adjustment of $7.9 million, which was paid in the second quarter of 2015. This amount is included in “Cash paid for business acquisitions, net of cash acquired” for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows. The fair value of acquired accounts receivable balances for Varden and Advent approximates the contractual amounts due from acquired customers, except for approximately $2.6 million of contractual amounts that are not expected to be collected as of the acquisition date and that were also reserved by Advent. The Company reported revenues totaling $72.2 million from Advent and Varden from their respective acquisition dates through September 30, 2015.

Commitments and Contingencies | Note 10—Commitments and Contingencies Millennium Actions Several actions (the “Millennium Actions”) have been filed in various jurisdictions against the Company’s subsidiaries, GlobeOp Financial Services Ltd and Globeop Financial Services LLC (“GlobeOp”), alleging claims and damages with respect to a valuation agent services agreement performed by GlobeOp for the Millennium Global Emerging Credit Fund, Ltd. and Millennium Global Emerging Credit Master Fund Ltd. (the “Millennium Funds”). These actions include (i) a putative class action in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York (the “U.S. Class Action”) on behalf of a putative class of investors in the Millennium Funds filed in May 2012 asserting claims of $844 million (the alleged aggregate value of assets under management by the Millennium Funds at the funds’ peak valuation); (ii) an arbitration proceeding in the United Kingdom (the “UK Arbitration”) on behalf of Millennium Global Investments Ltd. and Millennium Asset Management Ltd., the Millennium Funds’ investment manager and administrative manager, respectively (together, the “Millennium Managers”), which commenced with a request for arbitration in July 2011, seeking an indemnity of $26.5 million for sums paid by way of settlement to the Millennium Funds in a separate arbitration to which GlobeOp was not a party, as well as an indemnity for any losses that may be incurred by the Millennium Managers in the U.S. Class Action; and (iii) a claim in the same UK Arbitration proceeding by the liquidators on behalf of the Millennium Global Emerging Credit Master Fund Ltd. (the “Master Fund”) against GlobeOp for damages alleged to be in excess of $160 million. These actions allege that GlobeOp breached its contractual obligations and/or negligently breached a duty of care in the performance of services for the Millennium Fund and that, inter alia GlobeOp has secured insurance coverage that provides reimbursement of various litigation costs up to pre-determined limits. Since 2012, GlobeOp has been reimbursed for litigation costs under the applicable insurance policy. In January 2014, GlobeOp, SS&C, the Millennium Managers and the plaintiff in the U.S. Class Action entered into a settlement agreement resolving all disputes and claims between and among the parties (including a separate mutual release between and among GlobeOp and SS&C, on the one hand, and the Millennium Managers on the other that covers claims asserted in the UK Arbitration). The settlement agreement was approved by the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York on July 7, 2014 and consummated in August 2014. Accordingly, the U.S. Class Action matter has been dismissed with prejudice and is now concluded. GlobeOp’s insurers funded the entirety of the settlement amount contemplated to be contributed by GlobeOp. The resolution of the U.S. Class Action does not affect the claims, counterclaims and/or defenses as between GlobeOp and the Master Fund that have been asserted in the UK Arbitration. Hearings in the UK Arbitration were conducted in London in July and August 2013, September 2014 and December 2014. On July 31, 2015, the Tribunal in the UK Arbitration issued its Partial Final Award dismissing in its entirety the claims of the liquidators of the Master Fund against GlobeOp. The Tribunal’s decision is appealable only on limited grounds and, as of the date of this filing, no such appeal has been noticed. The Tribunal will conduct further proceedings in respect of the allocation of costs associated with the UK Arbitration and has reserved judgment on GlobeOp’s claim for indemnity in respect of its arbitration costs. In addition to the foregoing legal proceedings, from time to time, the Company is subject to other legal proceedings and claims. In the opinion of the Company’s management, the Company is not involved in any other such litigation or proceedings with third parties that management believes would have a material adverse effect on the Company or its business. |

Recent Accounting Pronouncements | Recent Accounting Pronouncements In September 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2015-16 (ASU 2015-16), Simplifying the Accounting for Measurement-Period Adjustments. The amendments in this Update require that an acquirer recognize adjustments to provisional amounts that are identified during the measurement period in the reporting period in which the adjustment amounts are determined. The amendments in this Update require that the acquirer record, in the same period’s financial statements, the effect on earnings of changes in depreciation, amortization, or other income effects, if any, as a result of the change to the provisional amounts, calculated as if the accounting had been completed at the acquisition date. For public business entities, the amendments in this Update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard on its financial position, results of operations and cash flows. In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-03, Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs. This ASU more closely aligns the treatment of debt issuance costs with debt discounts and premiums and requires debt issuance costs be presented as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of the related debt. The amendments in this ASU are effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015 and interim periods within those fiscal years, and retrospective application is required once adopted. As early adoption is permitted, the Company adopted this standard in the third quarter of 2015, which resulted in a reclassification of $19.2 million of deferred financing fees from intangible and other assets to a reduction in long-term debt, net of current portion in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2014. As of September 30, 2015, deferred financing fees of $55.8 million were recorded as a reduction in long-term debt, net of current portion, in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. The change does not impact the results of operations or cash flows. In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-15, Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern. This ASU establishes specific guidance to an organization’s management on their responsibility to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about the organization’s ability to continue as a going concern. The provisions of ASU 2014-15 are effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016. This ASU is not expected to have an impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows. In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). The objective of ASU 2014-09 is to clarify the principles for recognizing revenue by removing inconsistencies and weaknesses in revenue requirements; providing a more robust framework for addressing revenue issues; improving comparability of revenue recognition practices across entities, industries, jurisdictions and capital markets; and providing more useful information to users of financial statements through improved revenue disclosure requirements. The guidance was initially effective January 1, 2017 and early adoption was not permitted. In July 2015, the FASB approved a one-year deferral of the effective date to January 1, 2018, with an option of applying the standard on the original effective date. As a result, the provisions of this ASU are now effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard on its financial position, results of operations and cash flows. |
