Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
(Tabular dollars in millions, except per share amounts)
(Unaudited)
Note 1. Basis of Presentation
The accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements and footnotes thereto of Automatic Data Processing, Inc., its subsidiaries and variable interest entity (“ADP” or the “Company”) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). The Consolidated Financial Statements and footnotes thereto are unaudited. In the opinion of the Company’s management, the Consolidated Financial Statements reflect all adjustments, which are of a normal recurring nature, that are necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s interim financial results.
The Company has a grantor trust, which holds the majority of the funds provided by its clients pending remittance to employees of those clients, tax authorities, and other payees. The Company is the sole beneficial owner of the trust. The trust meets the criteria in Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 810 “Consolidation” to be characterized as a variable interest entity (“VIE”). The Company has determined that it has a controlling financial interest in the trust because it has both (1) the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the economic performance of the trust (including the power to make all investment decisions for the trust) and (2) the right to receive benefits that could potentially be significant to the trust (in the form of investment returns) and therefore, consolidates the trust. Further information on these funds and the Company’s obligations to remit to its clients’ employees, tax authorities, and other payees is provided in Note 8, “Corporate Investments and Funds Held for Clients.”
Restatements
Effective July 1, 2018, certain prior period amounts have been restated to conform to the current period presentation in connection with the adoption of Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (ASC 606)” and ASU 2017-07, “Compensation - Retirement Benefits (Topic 715): Improving the Presentation of Net Periodic Pension Cost and Net Periodic Post-retirement Benefit Cost.” Also, beginning in the first quarter of the fiscal year ended June 30, 2019 ("fiscal 2019"), the Company's chief operating decision maker ("CODM") reviews segment results reported at actual interest rates and the results of the PEO segment inclusive of the results of ADP Indemnity, and with changes to certain corporate allocations. Refer to Note 2 and Note 16 for additional information.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the assets, liabilities, revenue, expenses, and accumulated other comprehensive income that are reported in the Consolidated Financial Statements and footnotes thereto. Actual results may differ from those estimates. Interim financial results are not necessarily indicative of financial results for a full year. The information included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2018 (“fiscal 2018”).
Note 2. New Accounting Pronouncements
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
Effective July 1, 2018, the Company adopted ASU 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (ASC 606)” on a retrospective basis. ASU 2014-09 requires an entity to recognize revenue depicting the transfer of goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. ASU 2014-09 resulted in enhanced revenue related disclosures. The standard primarily impacted the manner in which it treats certain costs to fulfill contracts (i.e., implementation costs) and costs to acquire new contracts (i.e., selling costs). The provisions of the new standard require the Company to capitalize and amortize additional implementation costs than those capitalized and amortized under previous U.S. GAAP. Under previous U.S. GAAP, the Company immediately expensed all selling expenses. The adoption of provisions of the new standard did not materially impact the timing or amount of revenue the Company recognized and did not result in significant changes in its business processes or systems. Refer to Note 3 for further details. Refer to the table below for a summary of the restatements required, as a result of this change, on the Company's consolidated results of operations, statements of financial condition, and cash flows for the three months ended September 30, 2017.
Effective July 1, 2018, the Company adopted ASU 2017-07, “Compensation - Retirement Benefits (Topic 715): Improving the Presentation of Net Periodic Pension Cost and Net Periodic Post-retirement Benefit Cost”. ASU 2017-07 requires reporting the service cost component in the same line item or items as other compensation costs arising during the period in the Statements of
Consolidated Earnings. The other components of net periodic pension cost are required to be presented in the Statements of Consolidated Earnings separately from the service cost component. The Company retrospectively adopted the new standard, and as a result reclassified the non-service cost components of the net periodic benefit cost from within the respective line items of our Statements of Consolidated Earnings to Other income, net. Refer to the table below for a summary of the reclassification required, as a result of this change, on the Company's consolidated results of operations for the three months ended September 30, 2017. The adoption of the new accounting rules only impacted the classification of expenses on the Statements of Consolidated Earnings and did not impact the Company’s consolidated income, statements of financial condition, or cash flows.
Adoption of ASC 606 and ASU 2017-07 impacted the Company's prior period Statements of Consolidated Earnings, Consolidated Balance Sheets, and Consolidated Cash Flows as follows:

Note 3. Revenue
Based upon similar operational and economic characteristics, the Company’s revenues are disaggregated by its three strategic pillars: U.S. Integrated HCM (“HCM”), HR Outsourcing ("HRO"), and Global with separate disaggregation for PEO benefits pass-through revenues and Client Fund Interest revenues. The Company believes these revenue categories depict how the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of its revenue and cash flows are affected by economic factors.
HCM provides a suite of product offerings that assist employers of all types and sizes in all stages of the employment cycle, from recruitment to retirement. Global is generally consistent with the types of services provided within HCM but represent geographies outside of the United States and includes our multinational offerings. HCM and Global revenues are primarily attributable to fees for providing solutions for payroll, benefits, talent, retirement services and HR processing and fees charged to implement the Company's solutions for clients.
HRO provides a comprehensive human resources outsourcing solution, including offering benefits, providing workers’ compensation insurance, and administering state unemployment insurance, among other human resources functions. This revenue is primarily driven by the Professional Employer Organization Services (“PEO”). Amounts collected from PEO worksite employers include payroll, fees for benefits, and an administrative fee that also includes payroll taxes, fees for workers’ compensation and state unemployment taxes. The payroll and payroll taxes collected from the worksite employers are presented in revenue net, as the Company does not retain risk and acts as an agent with respect to this aspect of the PEO arrangement. With respect to the payroll and payroll taxes, the worksite employer is primarily responsible for providing the service and has discretion in establishing wages. The fees collected from the worksite employers for benefits (i.e., PEO benefits pass-throughs), workers’ compensation and state unemployment taxes are presented in revenues and the associated costs of benefits, workers’ compensation and state unemployment taxes are included in operating expenses, as the Company does retain risk and acts as a principal with respect to this aspect of the arrangement. With respect to these fees, the Company is primarily
responsible for fulfilling the service and has discretion in establishing price. The Company has further disaggregated HRO to separate out its PEO benefits pass-through revenues.
The Company enters into service agreements with clients that include anywhere from one service to a full suite of services. The Company’s agreements vary in duration having a legally enforceable term of 30 days to 5 years. The performance obligations in the agreements are generally combined into one performance obligation, as they are considered a series of distinct services, and are satisfied over time because the client simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits provided as the Company performs the services. The Company uses the output method based on a fixed fee per employee serviced to recognize revenue, as the value to the client of the goods or services transferred to date (e.g., number of payees or number of payrolls processed) appropriately depicts our performance towards complete satisfaction of the performance obligation. The fees are typically billed in the period in which services are performed.
The Company recognizes client fund interest revenues on collected but not yet remitted funds held for clients in revenues as earned, as the collection, holding and remittance of these funds are critical components of providing these services.
Collection of consideration the Company expects to receive typically occurs within 30 to 60 days of billing. We assess the collectability of revenues based primarily on the creditworthiness of the client as determined by credit checks and analysis, as well as the client's payment history.
The following tables provide details of revenue by our strategic pillars with disaggregation for PEO benefits pass-throughs and client fund interest, and includes a reconciliation to the Company’s reportable segments (in millions):

Contract Balances
The timing of revenue recognition for our HCM, Global and HRO services is consistent with the invoicing of clients, as invoicing occurs in the period the services are provided. Therefore, the Company does not recognize a contract asset or liability resulting from the timing of revenue recognition and invoicing.
Set up fees received from certain clients to implement the Company's solutions are considered a material right. Therefore, the Company defers revenue associated with these set up fees and records them over the period in which such clients are expected to benefit from the material right, which is approximately five to seven years.
Changes in deferred revenue related to set up fees for the three months ended September 30, 2018 were as follows:
|
| | | |
Contract Liability | |
Contract liability, July 1, 2018 | $ | 607.5 |

Recognition of revenue included in beginning of year contract liability | (47.4 | ) |

Currency adjustments | (5.8 | ) |
Contract liability, September 30, 2018 | $ | 585.1 |

Deferred costs
Incremental Costs of Obtaining a Contract
Incremental costs of obtaining a contract (e.g., sales commissions) that are expected to be recovered are capitalized and amortized on a straight-line basis over a period of three to eight years, depending on the Company's business unit. The Company has previously expensed these costs as incurred. Expected renewal periods are only included in the expected client relationship period if commission amounts paid upon renewal are not commensurate with amounts paid on the initial contract. Incremental costs of obtaining a contract include only those costs the Company incurs to obtain a contract that it would not have incurred if the contract had not been obtained. These costs are included in selling, general and administrative expenses.
Costs to fulfill a Contract
The Company capitalizes costs incurred to fulfill its contracts that i) relate directly to the contract ii) are expected to generate resources that will be used to satisfy the Company’s performance obligations under the contract and iii) are expected to be recovered through revenue generated under the contract. Costs incurred to implement clients on our solutions (e.g. direct labor) are capitalized and amortized on a straight-line basis over the expected client relationship period if the Company expects to recover those costs. The expected client relationship period ranges from three to eight years. These costs are included in operating expenses.
The Company has estimated the amortization periods for the deferred costs by using its historical retention by business unit to estimate the pattern during which the service transfers.
Deferred costs are periodically reviewed for impairment. There were no impairment losses incurred during the period.
The balance is as follows:
|
| | | |
| September 30, |
| 2018 |
Deferred costs to obtain a contract | $ | 1,445.7 |
|
Deferred costs to fulfill a contract | 906.6 |
|
Total deferred contract costs (1) | $ | 2,352.3 |
|
(1) The amount of total deferred costs amortized during the three months ended September 30, 2018 and for the three months ended September 30, 2017 were $216.9 million and $204.7 million, respectively.
Note 4. Acquisitions
In October 2017, the Company acquired 100% of the outstanding shares of Global Cash Card, Inc. ("GCC"), a leader in digital payments, including paycards and other electronic accounts, for approximately $490 million in cash, net of cash acquired. The acquisition of GCC makes ADP the only human capital management provider with a proprietary digital payments processing platform. The results of GCC are reported within the Company’s Employer Services segment.
The final purchase price allocation for GCC is as follows:
|
| | | |
Goodwill | $ | 406.1 |
|
Identifiable intangible assets | 132.5 |
|
Other assets | 0.8 |
|
Total assets acquired | $ | 539.4 |
|
| |
Total liabilities assumed | $ | 48.4 |
|
The Company determined the purchase price allocations for this acquisition based on estimates of the fair value of tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed, utilizing recognized valuation techniques, including the income and market approaches. The goodwill recorded as a result of the GCC transaction represents future economic benefits we expect to achieve as a result of the acquisition and expected cost synergies. None of the goodwill resulting from the acquisition is tax deductible. Intangible assets for GCC, which totaled $132.5 million, included technology and software, and customer contracts and lists which are being amortized over a weighted average life of approximately 8 years.
In January 2018, the Company acquired 100% of the outstanding shares of Work Market, Inc. ("WorkMarket"), a leading provider of cloud-based freelance management solutions, for approximately $125 million in cash.
In July 2018, the Company acquired 100% of outstanding shares of Celergo Holdings, Inc. ("Celergo"), a leading provider of multi-country payroll management services.
These acquisitions, individually or in aggregate, were not material to the Company's results of operations, financial position, or cash flows and, therefore, the pro forma impact of these acquisitions is not presented. The results of these acquisitions are reported within the Company’s Employer Services segment.
Note 5. Service Alignment Initiative
On July 28, 2016, the Company announced a Service Alignment Initiative that simplified the Company's service organization by aligning the Company's service operations to its strategic platforms and locations. In fiscal 2016, the Company entered into leases in Norfolk, Virginia and Maitland, Florida, and in fiscal 2017, the Company entered into a lease in Tempe, Arizona as part of this effort. The Company began incurring charges during the first quarter of fiscal 2017. The charges primarily relate to employee separation benefits recognized under Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 712, and also include charges for the relocation of certain current Company employees, lease termination costs, and accelerated depreciation of fixed assets. The Company does not expect to recognize significant pre-tax restructuring charges related to the Service Alignment Initiative for the remainder of fiscal 2019.
The table below summarizes the composition of the Company's Service Alignment Initiative (reversals)/charges: |
| | | | | | | | | | | |
| Three Months Ended | | Cumulative amount from inception through |

| | 1.9 |
| | 11.8 |
|
Total (c) | $ | (4.4 | ) | | $ | (3.3 | ) | | $ | 106.1 |
|
(a) - (Reversals)/charges are recorded in selling, general and administrative expenses on the Statements of Consolidated Earnings.
(b) - Other initiative costs include costs to relocate certain current Company employees to new locations, lease termination charges (both included within selling, general and administrative expenses on the Statements of Consolidated Earnings), and accelerated depreciation on fixed assets (included within depreciation and amortization on the Statements of Consolidated Earnings).
(c) - All charges are included within the Other segment.

Note 10. Short-term Financing
The Company has a $3.8 billion, 364-day credit agreement that matures in June 2019 with a one year term-out option. The Company also has a $2.25 billion five-year credit facility that matures in June 2022 that also contains an accordion feature under which the aggregate commitment can be increased by $500 million, subject to the availability of additional commitments. In addition, the Company has a five-year $3.75 billion credit facility maturing in June 2023 that contains an accordion feature under which the aggregate commitment can be increased by $500 million, subject to the availability of additional commitments. The interest rate applicable to committed borrowings is tied to LIBOR, the effective federal funds rate, or the prime rate, depending on the notification provided by the Company to the syndicated financial institutions prior to borrowing. The Company is also required to pay facility fees on the credit agreements. The primary uses of the credit facilities are to provide liquidity to the commercial paper program and funding for general corporate purposes, if necessary. The Company had no borrowings through September 30, 2018 under the credit agreements.
The Company's U.S. short-term funding requirements related to client funds are sometimes obtained on an unsecured basis through the issuance of commercial paper, rather than liquidating previously-collected client funds that have already been invested in available-for-sale securities. This commercial paper program provides for the issuance of up to $9.8 billion in aggregate maturity value. The Company’s commercial paper program is rated A-1+ by Standard & Poor’s and Prime-1 by Moody’s. These ratings denote the highest quality commercial paper securities. Maturities of commercial paper can range from overnight to up to 364 days. At September 30, 2018 and June 30, 2018, the Company had no commercial paper outstanding. For the three months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, the Company had average daily borrowings of $3.7 billion and $3.8 billion, respectively, at weighted average interest rates of 2.0% and 1.2%, respectively. The weighted average maturity of the Company’s commercial paper during the three months ended September 30, 2018 was approximately two days.
The Company’s U.S., Canadian and United Kingdom short-term funding requirements related to client funds obligations are sometimes obtained on a secured basis through the use of reverse repurchase agreements, which are collateralized principally by government and government agency securities, rather than liquidating previously-collected client funds that have already been invested in available-for-sale securities. These agreements generally have terms ranging from overnight to up to five business days. At September 30, 2018, the Company had $453.0 million of outstanding obligations related to the reverse repurchase agreements. All outstanding reverse repurchase obligations matured and were fully paid as of October 4, 2018. At June 30, 2018, there were no outstanding obligations related to the reverse repurchase agreements. For the three months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, the Company had average outstanding balances under reverse repurchase agreements of $495.1 million and $526.2 million, respectively, at weighted average interest rates of 1.7% and 1.1%, respectively.
Note 11. Long-term Debt

Note 12. Employee Benefit Plans
A. Stock-based Compensation Plans. Stock-based compensation consists of the following:
| |
• | Stock Options. Stock options are granted to employees at exercise prices equal to the fair market value of the Company's common stock on the dates of grant. Stock options generally vest ratably over 4 years and have a term of 10 years. Compensation expense is measured based on the fair value of the stock option on the grant date and recognized on a straight-line basis over the vesting period. Stock options are forfeited if the employee ceases to be employed by the Company prior to vesting. |
| |
• | Time-Based Restricted Stock and Time-Based Restricted Stock Units. Time-based restricted stock and time-based restricted stock units granted September 1, 2018 and after generally vest ratably over 3 years. Time-based restricted stock and time-based restricted stock units granted prior to September 1, 2018 are generally subject to a vesting period of two years. Awards are forfeited if the employee ceases to be employed by the Company prior to vesting. Compensation expense is measured based on the fair value of the grant at grant date and recognized on a straight-line basis over the vesting period. |
Time-based restricted stock cannot be transferred during the vesting period. Compensation expense relating to the issuance of time-based restricted stock is measured based on the fair value of the award on the grant date and recognized on a straight-line basis over the vesting period. Dividends are paid on shares awarded under the time-based restricted stock program.
Time-based restricted stock units are settled in cash and cannot be transferred during the vesting period. Compensation expense relating to the issuance of time-based restricted stock units is recorded over the vesting period and is initially based on the fair value of the award on the grant date and is subsequently remeasured at each reporting date during the vesting period based on the change in the ADP stock price. No dividend equivalents are paid on units awarded under the time-based restricted stock unit program.
| |
• | Performance-Based Restricted Stock and Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units. Performance-based restricted stock and performance-based restricted stock units generally vest over a one to three year performance period and a subsequent service period of up to 38 months. Under these programs, the Company communicates "target awards" at the beginning of the performance period with possible payouts at the end of the performance period ranging from 0% to 150% of the "target awards." Awards are generally forfeited if the employee ceases to be employed by the Company prior to vesting. |
Performance-based restricted stock cannot be transferred during the vesting period. Compensation expense relating to the issuance of performance-based restricted stock is recognized over the vesting period based on the fair value of the award on the grant date with subsequent adjustments to the number of shares awarded during the performance period based on probable and actual performance against targets. After the performance period, if the performance targets are achieved, employees are eligible to receive dividends during the remaining vesting period on shares awarded under the performance-based restricted stock program.
Performance-based restricted stock units cannot be transferred and are settled in either cash or stock, depending on the employee's home country. Compensation expense relating to the issuance of performance-based restricted stock units settled in cash is recognized over the vesting period initially based on the fair value of the award on the grant date with subsequent adjustments to the number of units awarded during the performance period based on probable and actual performance against targets. In addition, compensation expense is remeasured at each reporting period during the vesting period based on the change in the ADP stock price. Compensation expense relating to the issuance of performance-based restricted stock units settled in stock is recorded over the vesting period based on the fair value of the award on the grant date with subsequent adjustments to the number of units awarded based on the probable and actual performance against targets. Dividend equivalents are paid on awards under the performance-based restricted stock unit program.
| |
• | Employee Stock Purchase Plan. The Company offers an employee stock purchase plan that allows eligible employees to purchase shares of common stock at a price equal to 95% of the market value for the Company's common stock on the last day of the offering period. This plan has been deemed non-compensatory and, therefore, no compensation expense has been recorded. |
The Company currently utilizes treasury stock to satisfy stock option exercises, issuances under the Company's employee stock purchase plan, and restricted stock awards. From time to time, the Company may repurchase shares of its common stock under its authorized share repurchase programs. The Company repurchased 1.6 million and 2.2 million shares in the three months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. The Company considers several factors in determining when to execute share repurchases, including, among other things, actual and potential acquisition activity, cash balances and cash flows, issuances due to employee benefit plan activity, and market conditions.
The following table represents stock-based compensation expense for the three months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively:

In fiscal 2018, the Company offered a voluntary early retirement program to certain eligible U.S.-based associates aged 55 or above with at least 10 years of service. The early retirement offer was made to about 3,500 eligible associates, or approximately 6 percent of the Company’s workforce, with approximately 2,200 ADP associates opting to participate. The Company also extended to all employees participating in the VERP the opportunity to continue health care coverage at active employee contribution rates for up to 24 months following retirement. The Company recorded $9.3 million of expenses within selling, general, and administrative expenses related to the continuing health coverage for VERP participants who exited the Company during the three months ended September 30, 2018 and anticipates recording a charge for the remaining participants who will exit and continue health coverage during remainder of fiscal 2019, which may total up to $26 million, but is based on the number of associates electing this benefit and the health care option selected by each associate.
In addition, the Company recorded a $14.0 million non-cash settlement charge and $1.3 million of special termination benefits during the period. The Company anticipates recording additional non-cash settlement charges up to $15 million through the remainder of fiscal 2019, within Other income, net, on the Statements of Consolidated Earnings, contingent on the number of participants electing the lump sum payment option and other actuarial assumptions, including the discount rate and long-term rate of return on assets.

The effective tax rate for the three months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017 was 21.9% and 27.0%, respectively. The decrease in the effective tax rate is primarily due to the impacts of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act ("the Act") in the three months ended September 30, 2018 partially offset by the impact of benefits recognized from a foreign exchange loss realized on a distribution from a foreign subsidiary, the release of reserves for uncertain tax positions, and the usage of foreign tax credits in the three months ended September 30, 2017.
The Act reduces the U.S. federal corporate income tax rate from 35% to 21%. In accordance with ASC 740 companies are required to re-measure deferred tax balances using the new enacted tax rates. The Act requires the Company to pay a one-time transition tax on earnings of the Company's foreign subsidiaries that were previously tax deferred for U.S. income taxes and creates new taxes on the Company's foreign sourced earnings. The Company included the estimated impact of the Act in accordance with Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 118, which provides guidance on accounting for the impact of the Act, in the Company's financial results for the year ended June 30, 2018.
Income tax expense reported for the three months ended September 30, 2018 includes a benefit of $1.1 million related to the Act. The $1.1 million is comprised of adjustments to the one-time transition tax and valuation allowance against the Company's foreign tax credits which may not be realized. The Act’s foreign tax credit provisions may limit the Company’s ability to utilize existing foreign tax credits in future periods, accordingly we have estimated that approximately $19.2 million could expire unutilized. The Company also accrued $28.3 million in the period ended June 30, 2018 related to foreign withholding taxes on future distributions of earnings and profits ("E&P") that may not be utilizable as foreign tax credits.
The accounting for the effects of the rate change on deferred tax balances is not complete and a provisional benefit of $253.3 million (restated for ASC 606) was recognized in the year ended June 30, 2018. During the three months ended September 30, 2018, the Company did not record an adjustment to this provisional amount. The Company is still analyzing certain aspects of the Act and refining calculations, which could potentially affect the re-measurement of these balances or potentially give rise to new deferred tax amounts.
The one-time transition tax is based on the total post-1986 E&P that was previously deferred from US income taxes. The Company recorded a provisional amount for the one-time transition tax liability of $22.2 million for the Company's foreign subsidiaries. The Company has not yet completed the calculation of the total post-1986 E&P for these foreign subsidiaries. Further, the transition tax is based in part on the amount of those earnings held in cash and other specified assets. This amount may change when the Company finalizes the calculation of post-1986 foreign E&P previously deferred from US federal taxation and finalizes the amounts held in cash or other specified assets.
During the three months ended September 30, 2018, the Company continued to evaluate and analyze its assessment of the Act which involves monitoring guidance from the U.S. tax authorities and refining tax return positions. The Company expects to complete its analysis and provisional estimates during the three months ended December 31, 2018 and record an adjustment to tax expense, if applicable.
Note 14. Commitments and Contingencies
In June 2018, a potential class action complaint was filed against ADP in the Circuit Court of Cook County, Illinois. The complaint asserts that ADP violated the Illinois Biometric Privacy Act, was negligent and unjustly enriched itself in connection with its collection, use and storage of biometric data of employees of its clients who are residents of Illinois in connection with certain services provided by ADP to clients in Illinois. The complaint seeks statutory and other unspecified monetary damages, injunctive relief and attorney’s fees. In addition, similar potential class action complaints have been filed in Illinois state courts against ADP and/or certain of its clients with respect to the collection, use and storage of biometric data of the employees of these clients. All of these claims are still in their earliest stages and the Company is unable to estimate any reasonably possible loss, or range of loss, with respect to these matters. The Company intends to vigorously defend against these lawsuits.
The Company is subject to various claims, litigation and regulatory compliance matters in the normal course of business. When a loss is considered probable and reasonably estimable, the Company records a liability in the amount of its best estimate for the ultimate loss. Management currently believes that the resolution of these claims, litigation and regulatory compliance matters against us, individually or in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse impact on our consolidated results of operations, financial condition or cash flows. These matters are subject to inherent uncertainties and management's view of these matters may change in the future.
It is not the Company’s business practice to enter into off-balance sheet arrangements. In the normal course of business, the Company may enter into contracts in which it makes representations and warranties that relate to the performance of the Company’s services and products. The Company does not expect any material losses related to such representations and warranties.
