Nature of Business
Change Healthcare LLC (the “Joint Venture”), is a leading independent healthcare technology platform that provides data and analytics-driven solutions to improve clinical, financial and patient engagement outcomes in the U.S. healthcare system. The Joint Venture offers a comprehensive suite of software, analytics, technology enabled solutions that drive improved results in the complex workflows of healthcare system payers and providers.
Organization
In June 2016, Change Healthcare Inc., the Joint Venture, Change Healthcare Holdings, LLC, Change Healthcare Intermediate Holdings, LLC, Change Healthcare Performance, Inc. (“Legacy CHC”) and its stockholders—including affiliates of The Blackstone Group, L.P. (“Blackstone”) and Hellman & Friedman LLC (“Hellman & Friedman”)—entered into an Agreement of Contribution and Sale (the “Contribution Agreement”) with McKesson Corporation (“McKesson”, together with Change Healthcare Inc., the “Members”). Under the terms of the Contribution Agreement, the parties agreed to form the Joint Venture, a joint venture that combined the majority of the McKesson Technology Solutions businesses, excluding McKesson’s Enterprise Information Solutions business and RelayHealth Pharmacy Network (such contributed businesses, “Core MTS”) with substantially all of the assets and operations of Legacy CHC, but excluding Legacy CHC’s pharmacy claims switching and prescription routing businesses (such excluded businesses, the “eRx Network” and the businesses contributed by Legacy CHC, together with Core MTS, the “Contributed Businesses”). The creation of the Joint Venture, including the contribution of the Contributed Businesses and related transactions, is collectively referred to as the “Transactions”. The Transactions closed on March 1, 2017.
Basis of Accounting
Due to the existence of shared control among the Members over all major financial and operating decisions of the Joint Venture and its consolidated subsidiaries, the assets and liabilities contributed to the Joint Venture were recognized in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements at their historical carrying values (i.e., joint venture accounting).
Change Healthcare Inc. Initial Public Offering
Effective July 1, 2019, Change Healthcare Inc. completed its initial public offering of 49,285,713 of common stock and a concurrent offering of 5,750,000 of tangible equity units (“TEUs”). The proceeds of the offering of common stock were subsequently contributed to the Joint Venture in exchange for an additional 49,285,713 units of the Joint Venture (“LLC Units”), which together with the Company’s existing holdings represents an approximately 41% interest in the Joint Venture. The proceeds of the offering of TEUs were used to acquire instruments of the Joint Venture that, in economic terms, substantially mirror the terms of the TEUs included in Change Healthcare Inc.’s offering. The net proceeds received from Change Healthcare Inc. from the offering of common stock and the offering of TEUs were $603,787 and $276,633, respectively, and the Joint Venture, in turn, used the proceeds to repay $805,000 of its indebtedness under the Term Loan Facility without penalty in July 2019. The Joint Venture repaid an additional $85,000 of its indebtedness under the Term Loan Facility without penalty during the three months ended September 30, 2019 for a total paydown of $890,000. However, due to the presence of unamortized discounts and debt issuance costs, the Joint Venture recognized a loss on extinguishment of debt of approximately $15,791 during the three and six months ended September 30, 2019.
Amendment of Revolving Credit Facility
Additionally, in July 2019, the Joint Venture amended its Revolving Credit Facility, the primary effects of which were to increase the maximum amount that can be borrowed from $500,000 to $785,000 and to extend the maturity date until July 3, 2024. In the event that the outstanding balance under the Term Loan Facility exceeds $1,100,000 on December 1, 2023, however, amounts due, if any, under the Revolving Facility become due and payable on December 1, 2023. In connection with this amendment, a portion of the debt was deemed extinguished, and the Joint Venture recognized a loss on extinguishment of $1,109 during the three and six months ended September 30, 2019.
