General | NOTE A—General Basis of Presentation The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of Magellan Health, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Magellan"), include Magellan and its subsidiaries (together with Magellan, the "Company"). The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for interim financial information and with the Securities and Exchange Commission's (the "SEC") instructions to Form 10-Q. Accordingly, the financial statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation, have been included. The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. These unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2015 and the notes thereto, which are included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on February 29, 2016. Business Overview The Company is engaged in the healthcare management business, and is focused on managing the fastest growing, most complex areas of health, including special populations, complete pharmacy benefits and other specialty areas of healthcare. The Company develops innovative solutions that combine advanced analytics, agile technology and clinical excellence to drive better decision making, positively impact health outcomes and optimize the cost of care for the members we serve. The Company provides services to health plans and other managed care organizations ("MCOs"), employers, labor unions, various military and governmental agencies and third party administrators ("TPAs"). Healthcare Healthcare includes the Company's: (i) management of behavioral healthcare services and employee assistance program ("EAP") services, (ii) management of other specialty areas including diagnostic imaging and musculoskeletal management, and (iii) the integrated management of physical, behavioral and pharmaceutical healthcare for special populations, delivered through Magellan Complete Care ("MCC"). These special populations include individuals with serious mental illness ("SMI"), dual eligibles, long-term services and supports and other populations with unique and often complex healthcare needs. The Company's coordination and management of these healthcare services are provided through its comprehensive network of medical and behavioral health professionals, clinics, hospitals and ancillary service providers. This network of credentialed and privileged providers is integrated with clinical and quality improvement programs to improve access to care and enhance the healthcare experience for individuals in need of care, while at the same time making the cost of these services more affordable for our customers. The Company generally does not directly provide or own any provider of treatment services, although it does employ licensed behavioral health counselors to deliver non-medical counseling under certain government contracts. The Healthcare segment's commercial division serves a variety of customers, with services, inclusive of special population management, provided under contracts with health plans and accountable care organizations for some or all of their commercial, Medicaid and Medicare members, as well as with employers. The government division contracts with local, state and federal governmental agencies to provide services to recipients under Medicaid, Medicare and other government programs. The Company provides its management services primarily through: (i) risk-based products, where the Company assumes all or a substantial portion of the responsibility for the cost of providing treatment services in exchange for a fixed per member per month fee and (ii) administrative services only ("ASO") products, where the Company provides services such as utilization review, claims administration and/or provider network management, but does not assume responsibility for the cost of the treatment services. Pharmacy Management The Pharmacy Management segment ("Pharmacy Management") comprises products and solutions that provide clinical and financial management of pharmaceuticals paid under medical and pharmacy benefit programs. Pharmacy Management's services include: (i) pharmacy benefit management ("PBM") services; (ii) pharmacy benefit administration ("PBA") for state Medicaid and other government sponsored programs; (iii) pharmaceutical dispensing operations; (iv) clinical and formulary management programs; (v) medical pharmacy management programs; and (vi) programs for the integrated management of specialty drugs across both the medical and pharmacy benefit that treat complex conditions, regardless of site of service, method of delivery, or benefit reimbursement. Pharmacy Management's services are provided under contracts with health plans, employers, MCOs, state Medicaid programs, Medicare Part D and other government agencies, and encompass risk-based and fee-for-service ("FFS") arrangements. In addition, Pharmacy Management has subcontract arrangements to provide PBM services for certain Healthcare customers. Corporate This segment of the Company is comprised primarily of amounts not allocated to the Healthcare and Pharmacy Management segments, including costs related to being a publicly traded company. In order to better represent the operations of the Company's segments, effective January 1, 2016, the Company began allocating operational and corporate support costs to the Healthcare and Pharmacy segments. These costs, which were historically reported in the Corporate segment, include operational support functions such as sales and marketing and information technology, as well as corporate support functions such as executive, finance and human resources. Prior period balances have been reclassified to reflect this change. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Recent Accounting Pronouncements In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2014-09, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)" ("ASU 2014-09"), which is a new comprehensive revenue recognition standard that will supersede virtually all existing revenue guidance under GAAP. In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-08, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Principal versus Agent Considerations (Reporting Revenue Gross versus Net)" ("ASU 2016-08"), which clarifies the implementation guidance on principal versus agent considerations. In April 2016, the FASB issued ASU No 2016-10, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing" ("ASU 2016-10"), which clarifies the performance obligations and licensing implementation guidance of ASU 2014-09. In July 2015, the FASB approved to defer the effective date of ASU 2014-09. These ASUs are effective for calendar years beginning after December 15, 2017. The Company is currently assessing the potential impact this ASU will have on the Company's consolidated results of operations, financial position and cash flows. In June 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-12, "Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Accounting for Share-Based Payments When the Terms of an Award Provide That a Performance Target Could Be Achieved After the Requisite Service Period" ("ASU 2014-12"), which revises the accounting treatment for stock compensation tied to performance targets. The amendments in this ASU are effective for calendar years beginning after December 15, 2015 and were adopted by the Company during the quarter ended March 31, 2016. The effect of this guidance was immaterial to the Company's consolidated results of operations, financial position or cash flows. In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-15, "Presentation of Financial Statements—Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40)" ("ASU 2014- 15"), which provides guidance in GAAP about management's responsibility to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about an entity's ability to continue as a going concern and to provide related footnote disclosures. This amendment should reduce diversity in the timing and content of footnote disclosures. This ASU is effective for the annual period beginning after December 15, 2016 and for annual and interim reporting periods thereafter. The guidance is not expected to materially impact the Company's consolidated results of operations, financial position or cash flows. In February 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-02, "Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis" ("ASU 2015-02"), which amends certain requirements for determining whether a variable interest entity must be consolidated. The amendments in this ASU are effective for annual and interim reporting periods of public entities beginning after December 31, 2015 and were adopted by the Company during the quarter ended March 31, 2016. The effect of this guidance was immaterial to the Company's consolidated results of operations, financial position or cash flows. In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-05, "Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Internal—Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Customer's Accounting for Fees Paid in a Cloud Computing Arrangement" ("ASU 2015-05"), which provides guidance to clarify the customer's accounting for fees paid in a cloud computing arrangement. The amendments in this ASU are effective for annual and interim reporting periods of public entities beginning after December 31, 2015 and were adopted by the Company on a prospective basis during the quarter ended March 31, 2016. The effect of this guidance was immaterial to the Company's consolidated results of operations, financial position or cash flows. In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-11, "Inventory (Topic 330): Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory" ("ASU 2015-11"). The amendment under this ASU requires that an entity measure inventory at the lower of cost or net realizable value. This guidance is effective for annual and interim reporting periods of public entities beginning after December 15, 2016. The guidance is not expected to materially impact the Company's consolidated results of operations, financial position or cash flows. In September 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-16, "Business Combinations (Topic 805): Simplifying the Accounting for Measurement Period Adjustments" ("ASU 2015-16"). The amendment under this ASU requires 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 ASU are effective for calendar years beginning after December 15, 2015 and were adopted by the Company during the quarter ended March 31, 2016. The effect of this guidance is immaterial to the Company's consolidated results of operations, financial position or cash flows. In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, "Leases" ("ASU 2016-02"). This ASU amends the existing accounting standards for lease accounting, including requiring lessees to recognize most leases on their balance sheets. This guidance is effective for annual and interim reporting periods of public entities beginning after December 15, 2018, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently assessing the potential impact this ASU will have on the Company's consolidated results of operations, financial position and cash flows. In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-09, "Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718)" ("ASU 2016-09"). This ASU amends the accounting for share-based payment transactions, including the income tax consequences, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities and classification on the statement of cash flows. This guidance is effective for annual and interim reporting period of public entities beginning after December 15, 2017, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently assessing the potential impact this ASU will have on the Company's consolidated results of operations, financial position and cash flows. In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, "Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments" ("ASU 2016-13"). This ASU amends the accounting on reporting credit losses for assets held at amortized cost basis and available for sale debt securities. This guidance is effective for annual and interim periods of public entities beginning after December 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted for fiscal years beginning after December 31, 2018. The Company is currently assessing the potential impact this ASU will have on the Company's consolidated results of operation, financial positions and cash flows. Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Significant estimates of the Company include, among other things, accounts receivable realization, valuation allowances for deferred tax assets, valuation of goodwill and intangible assets, medical claims payable, other medical liabilities, contingent consideration, stock compensation assumptions, tax contingencies and legal liabilities. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Managed Care and Other Revenue Managed Care Revenue. Managed care revenue, inclusive of revenue from the Company's risk, EAP and ASO contracts, is recognized over the applicable coverage period on a per member basis for covered members. The Company is paid a per member fee for all enrolled members, and this fee is recorded as revenue in the month in which members are entitled to service. The Company adjusts its revenue for retroactive membership terminations, additions and other changes, when such adjustments are identified, with the exception of retroactivity that can be reasonably estimated. The impact of retroactive rate amendments is generally recorded in the accounting period that terms to the amendment are finalized, and that the amendment is executed. Any fees paid prior to the month of service are recorded as deferred revenue. Managed care revenues approximated $668.6 million and $1,314.9 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, respectively and $570.8 million and $1,115.8 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, respectively. Fee-For-Service, Fixed Fee and Cost-Plus Contracts. The Company has certain contracts with customers under which the Company recognizes revenue as services are performed and as costs are incurred. This includes revenues received in relation to the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act health insurer fee ("HIF fee") billed on a cost reimbursement basis. Revenues from these contracts approximated $86.7 million and $163.6 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, respectively, and $102.6 million and $205.6 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, respectively. Rebate Revenue. The Company administers a rebate program for certain clients through which the Company coordinates the achievement, calculation and collection of rebates and administrative fees from pharmaceutical manufacturers on behalf of clients. Each period, the Company estimates the total rebates earned based on actual volumes of pharmaceutical purchases by the Company's clients, as well as historical and/or anticipated sharing percentages. The Company earns fees based upon the volume of rebates generated for its clients. The Company does not record as rebate revenue any rebates that are passed through to its clients. Total rebate revenues approximated $16.9 million and $32.8 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, respectively, and $21.3 million and $41.1 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, respectively. In relation to the Company's PBM business, the Company administers rebate programs through which it receives rebates from pharmaceutical manufacturers that are shared with its customers. The Company recognizes rebates when the Company is entitled to them and when the amounts of the rebates are determinable. The amount recorded for rebates earned by the Company from the pharmaceutical manufacturers is recorded as a reduction of cost of goods sold. PBM and Dispensing Revenue Pharmacy Benefit Management Revenue. The Company recognizes PBM revenue, which consists of a negotiated prescription price (ingredient cost plus dispensing fee), co-payments collected by the pharmacy and any associated administrative fees, when claims are adjudicated. The Company recognizes PBM revenue on a gross basis (i.e. including drug costs and co-payments) as it is acting as the principal in the arrangement and is contractually obligated to its clients and network pharmacies, which is a primary indicator of gross reporting. In addition, the Company is solely responsible for the claims adjudication process, negotiating the prescription price for the pharmacy, collection of payments from the client for drugs dispensed by the pharmacy, and managing the total prescription drug relationship with the client's members. If the Company enters into a contract where it is only an administrator, and does not assume any of the risks previously noted, revenue will be recognized on a net basis. PBM revenues approximated $330.0 million and $515.8 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, respectively, and $362.0 million and $697.0 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, respectively. Dispensing Revenue. The Company recognizes dispensing revenue, which includes the co-payments received from members of the health plans the Company serves, when the specialty pharmaceutical drugs are shipped. At the time of shipment, the earnings process is complete; the obligation of the Company's customer to pay for the specialty pharmaceutical drugs is fixed, and, due to the nature of the product, the member may neither return the specialty pharmaceutical drugs nor receive a refund. Revenues from the dispensing of specialty pharmaceutical drugs on behalf of health plans were $51.4 million and $97.9 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, respectively, and $54.4 million and $109.7 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, respectively. Medicare Part D. The Company is contracted with the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services ("CMS") as a Prescription Drug Plan ("PDP") to provide prescription drug benefits to Medicare beneficiaries. Net revenues include insurance premiums earned by the PDP, which includes a direct premium paid by CMS and a beneficiary premium paid by the PDP member. In cases of low-income members, the beneficiary premium may be subsidized by CMS. The Company recognizes insurance premium revenues on a monthly basis on a per member basis for covered members. In addition to these premiums, net revenues includes certain payments from the members based on the members' actual prescription claims, including co-payments, coverage gap benefits, deductibles and co-insurance (collectively, "Member Responsibilities"). The Company receives a prospective subsidy payment from CMS each month to subsidize a portion of the Member Responsibilities for low-income members. If the prospective subsidy differs from actual prescription claims, the difference is recorded as either a receivable or payable on the consolidated balance sheets. The Company assumes no risk for the Member Responsibilities, including the portion subsidized by CMS. The Company recognizes revenues for Member Responsibilities, including the portion subsidized by CMS, on a gross basis as claims are adjudicated. The CMS also provides an annual risk corridor adjustment which compares the Company's actual drug costs incurred to the premiums received. Based on the risk corridor adjustment, the Company may receive additional premiums from CMS or may be required to refund CMS a portion of previously received premiums. The Company calculates the risk corridor adjustment on a quarterly basis and the amount is included in net revenues with a corresponding receivable or payable on the consolidated balance sheets. Medicare Part D revenues approximated $48.1 million and $98.4 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016. Significant Customers Customers exceeding ten percent of the consolidated Company's net revenues The Company provides behavioral healthcare management and other related services to members in the state of Florida pursuant to contracts with the State of Florida (the "Florida Contracts"). The Company had behavioral healthcare contracts with various areas in the State of Florida (the "Florida Areas") which were part of the Florida Medicaid program. The State of Florida implemented a new system of mandated managed care through which Medicaid enrollees receive integrated healthcare services, and in 2014 phased out the behavioral healthcare programs under which the Florida Areas' contracts operated. The Company has a contract with the State of Florida to provide integrated healthcare services under the new program ("the Florida Medicaid Contract"). The Florida Medicaid Contract began on February 4, 2014 and extends through December 31, 2018, unless sooner terminated by the parties. The State of Florida has the right to terminate the Florida Medicaid Contract with cause, as defined, upon 24 hour notice and upon 30 days notice for any reason or no reason at all. The Florida Contracts generated net revenues of $218.0 million and $267.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2016, respectively. Through December 31, 2015, the Company provided behavioral healthcare management and other related services to members in the state of Iowa pursuant to contracts with the State of Iowa (the "Iowa Contracts"). The Iowa Contracts terminated on December 31, 2015. The Iowa Contracts generated net revenues of $261.9 million and $7.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2016, respectively. Customers exceeding ten percent of segment net revenues In addition to the Florida Contracts and the Iowa Contracts previously discussed, the following customers generated in excess of ten percent of net revenues for the respective segment for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2016 (in thousands): Segment Term Date 2015 2016 Healthcare None Pharmacy Management Customer A December 31, 2016 $ $ Concentration of Business The Company also has a significant concentration of business with various counties in the State of Pennsylvania (the "Pennsylvania Counties") which are part of the Pennsylvania Medicaid program, and with members under its contract with CMS. Net revenues from the Pennsylvania Counties in the aggregate totaled $186.1 million and $226.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2016, respectively. Net revenues from members in relation to its contract with CMS in aggregate totaled $115.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016, of which $98.4 million is Medicare Part D revenue. The Company's contracts with customers typically have terms of one to three years, and in certain cases contain renewal provisions (at the customer's option) for successive terms of between one and two years (unless terminated earlier). Substantially all of these contracts may be immediately terminated with cause and many of the Company's contracts are terminable without cause by the customer or the Company either upon the giving of requisite notice and the passage of a specified period of time (typically between 60 and 180 days) or upon the occurrence of other specified events. In addition, the Company's contracts with federal, state and local governmental agencies generally are conditioned on legislative appropriations. These contracts generally can be terminated or modified by the customer if such appropriations are not made. Fair Value Measurements The Company has certain assets and liabilities that are required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis. These assets and liabilities are to be measured using inputs from the three levels of the fair value hierarchy, which are as follows: Level 1—Inputs are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access at the measurement date. Level 2—Inputs include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (i.e., interest rates, yield curves, etc.), and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means (market corroborated inputs). Level 3—Unobservable inputs that reflect the Company's assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. The Company develops these inputs based on the best information available, including the Company's data. In accordance with the fair value hierarchy described above, the following table shows the fair value of the Company's assets and liabilities that are required to be measured at fair value as of December 31, 2015 and June 30, 2016 (in thousands): December 31, 2015 Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total Assets Cash and cash equivalents(1) $ — $ $ — $ Restricted cash(2) — — Investments: U.S. government and agency securities — — Obligations of government-sponsored enterprises(3) — — Corporate debt securities — — Certificates of deposit — — ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Total assets held at fair value $ $ $ — $ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Liabilities Contingent consideration $ — $ — $ $ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Total liabilities held at fair value $ — $ — $ $ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ June 30, 2016 Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total Assets Cash and cash equivalents(4) $ — $ $ — $ Restricted cash(5) — — Investments: U.S. government and agency securities — — Obligations of government-sponsored enterprises(6) — — Corporate debt securities — — Certificates of deposit — — ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Total assets held at fair value $ $ $ — $ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Liabilities Contingent consideration $ — $ — $ $ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Total liabilities held at fair value $ — $ — $ $ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ (1) Excludes $109.4 million of cash held in bank accounts by the Company. (2) Excludes $50.8 million of restricted cash held in bank accounts by the Company. (3) Includes investments in notes issued by the Federal Home Loan Bank and Federal Farm Credit Banks. (4) Excludes $132.9 million of cash held in bank accounts by the Company. (5) Excludes $20.9 million of restricted cash held in bank accounts by the Company. (6) Includes investments in notes issued by the Federal Home Loan Bank, Federal National Mortgage Association and Federal Farm Credit Banks. For the six months ended June 30, 2016, the Company has not transferred any assets between fair value measurement levels. The carrying values of financial instruments, including accounts receivable and accounts payable, approximate their fair values due to their short-term maturities. The estimated fair value of the Company's term loans of $428.1 million as of June 30, 2016 was based on current interest rates for similar types of borrowings and is in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. The estimated fair values may not represent actual values of the financial instruments that could be realized as of the balance sheet date or that will be realized in the future. All of the Company's investments are classified as "available-for-sale" and are carried at fair value. The contingent consideration liability reflects the fair value of potential future payments related to the CDMI, LLC ("CDMI"), Cobalt Therapeutics, LLC ("Cobalt"), 4D Pharmacy Management Systems, Inc. ("4D") and The Management Group, LLC ("TMG") acquisitions. The CDMI purchase agreement provides for potential contingent payments up to a maximum aggregate amount of $165.0 million. The potential future payments are contingent upon CDMI meeting certain client retention, client conversion and gross profit milestones through December 31, 2016. The 4D purchase agreement provided for potential contingent payments up to a maximum aggregate amount of $30.0 million. The potential future payments were contingent upon the achievement of certain growth targets in the underlying dual eligible membership served by 4D during calendar year 2015 and the retention of certain business. The Cobalt and TMG purchase agreements also provide for potential contingent payments of up to a maximum of $6.0 million and $15.0 million, respectively. As of the balance sheet date, the fair value of contingent consideration is determined based on probabilities of payment, projected payment dates, discount rates, projected revenues, gross profits, client base, member engagement, and new contract execution. The projected revenues, gross profits, client base, member engagement and new contract execution are derived from the Company's latest internal operational forecasts. The Company used a probability weighted discounted cash flow method to arrive at the fair value of the contingent consideration. Changes in the operational forecasts, probabilities of payment, discount rates or projected payment dates may result in a change in the fair value measurement. Any changes in the fair value measurement are reflected as income or expense in the consolidated statements of income. As the fair value measurement for the contingent consideration is based on inputs not observed in the market, these measurements are classified as Level 3 measurements as defined by fair value measurement guidance. For CDMI, the Company estimated undiscounted future contingent payments of $90.1 million as of December 31, 2015, which the Company settled in June 2016. For 4D, the Company estimated net undiscounted future contingent payments of $1.0 million as of December 31, 2015, which the Company settled in February 2016. For Cobalt and TMG the unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement include the discount rate, probabilities of payment and projected payment dates. As of June 30, 2016, the fair value of the short-term and long-term contingent consideration was $0.6 million and $3.2 million, respectively, and is included in short-term contingent consideration and long-term contingent consideration, respectively, in the consolidated balance sheets. The change in the fair value of the contingent consideration was $0.5 million and $0.2 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, respectively, which was recorded as direct service costs and other operating expenses in the consolidated statements of income. The increase was mainly a result of changes in present value and the estimated undiscounted liability. The following table summarizes the Company's liability for contingent consideration for the six months ended (in thousands): June 30, 2016 Balance as of beginning of period $ Acquistion of TMG Change in fair value Net payments ) ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Balance as of end of period $ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Cash and Cash Equivalents Cash equivalents are short-term, highly liquid interest-bearing investments with maturity dates of three months or less when purchased, consisting primarily of money market instruments. At June 30, 2016, the Company's excess capital and undistributed earnings for the Company's regulated subsidiaries of $78.5 million are included in cash and cash equivalents. Investments If a debt security is in an unrealized loss position and the Company has the intent to sell the debt security, or it is more likely than not that the Company will have to sell the debt security before recovery of its amortized cost basis, the decline in value is deemed to be other-than-temporary and is recorded to other |
