Forward-Looking Statements

 

This Form 8-K and the exhibits attached hereto and incorporated herein by reference contain “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the “safe harbor” provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, including but not limited to, statements regarding the proposed transaction between HealthEquity and WageWorks, the synergies from the proposed transaction, the combined company’s future operating results, HealthEquity’s expectations regarding debt repayment, projections as to the closing date of the proposed transaction, the anticipated benefits of the proposed transaction, future opportunities for HealthEquity upon closing of the proposed transaction, the product offerings of HealthEquity if the proposed transaction is consummated, and the ability of HealthEquity to deliver value to stakeholders. Forward-looking statements reflect current expectations regarding future events, results or outcomes, and are typically identified by words such as “estimate,” “project,” “predict,” “will,” “would,” “should,” “could,” “may,” “might,” “anticipate,” “plan,” “intend,” “believe,” “expect,” “aim,” “goal,” “target,” “objective,” “likely” or similar expressions that convey the prospective nature of events or outcomes. Factors that could cause actual results to differ include, but are not limited to: the conditions to the completion of the proposed transaction, including the receipt of all required regulatory approvals and approval of the stockholders of WageWorks; HealthEquity’s ability to finance the proposed transaction and its ability to generate sufficient cash flows to service and repay such debt; the ability of HealthEquity to successfully integrate WageWorks operations with those of HealthEquity; that such integration may be more difficult, time-consuming or costly than expected; that operating costs, customer loss and business disruption (including, without limitation, difficulties in maintaining relationships with employees, customers or suppliers) may be greater than expected following the proposed transaction or the public announcement of the proposed transaction; and the retention of certain key employees of WageWorks may be difficult. Although HealthEquity and WageWorks believe the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, we can give you no assurance these expectations will prove to be correct. Actual events, results and outcomes may differ materially from expectations due to a variety of known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors, including those described above. For a detailed discussion of other risk factors, please refer to the risks detailed in HealthEquity’s and WageWorks’s respective filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including, without limitation, each company’s most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and subsequent periodic and current reports. Neither HealthEquity nor WageWorks undertakes any intention or obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. Forward-looking statements should not be relied upon as representing views as of any date subsequent to the date of this Form 8-K.

Opinion on the Consolidated Financial Statements

 

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of WageWorks, Inc. (the “Company”) and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2018 and 2017, the related consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2018, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “consolidated financial statements”). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company and subsidiaries at December 31, 2018 and 2017, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2018, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

 

We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”), the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2018, based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”) and our report dated May 29, 2019 expressed an adverse opinion thereon.

 

Change in Accounting Principles

 

As discussed in Notes 1 and 2 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has changed its accounting method for recognizing revenue from contracts with customers in fiscal year 2018 due to the adoption of Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers.

 

As discussed in Notes 1 and 14 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has changed its accounting method for recording excess tax benefits from employee share-based payments in fiscal year 2017 due to the adoption of ASU 2016-09, Improvement to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting.

 

Basis for Opinion

 

These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

 

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud.

 

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

 

Shareholders and Board of Directors

WageWorks, Inc.

San Mateo, California

 

Opinion on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

We have audited WageWorks, Inc.’s (the “Company’s”) internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2018, based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework(2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (the “COSO criteria”). In our opinion, the Company did not maintain, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2018, based on the COSO criteria.

 

We do not express an opinion or any other form of assurance on management’s statements referring to any corrective actions taken by the Company after the date of management’s assessment.

 

We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”), the consolidated balance sheets of the Company and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2018 and 2017, the related consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2018, and the related notes (collectively referred to as “the financial statements”) and our report dated May 29, 2019 expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.

 

Basis for Opinion

 

The Company’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying “Item 9A, Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting”. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

 

We conducted our audit of internal control over financial reporting in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audit also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

 

A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. Several material weaknesses regarding management’s failure to design and maintain controls have been identified and described in management’s assessment. The material weaknesses related to 1) the control environment, due to material weaknesses related to a) an inadequate or ineffective senior accounting leadership, b) an insufficient complement of qualified resources with an appropriate level of knowledge, experience and training important to the Company’s financial reporting requirements, c) inadequate mechanisms and oversight to ensure accountability for the performance of controls; 2) risk assessment, as the Company did not have an adequate assessment of changes in risks by management that could significantly impact internal control over financial reporting and did not effectively design controls in response to the risks of material misstatement; 3) control activities and information and communication, specifically between the accounting department and other operating departments necessary to support the proper functioning of internal controls; and 4) monitoring controls, as the Company did not maintain an internal audit function sufficient to monitor control activities. The control environment material weaknesses contributed to additional material weaknesses in the control activities of the Company as the Company did not design and maintain effective controls over a) accounting close and financial reporting; b) contract to cash process, c) risk assessment and management of change, as well as the review, approval, and documentation related to the application of generally accepted accounting principles, d) review of new, unusual or significant transactions and contracts, e) manual reconciliations of high-volume standard transactions, and f) information technology general controls (ITGCs) in the areas of logical access and change management. The risk assessment material weakness contributed to an additional material weakness as the

Company did not design effective controls over certain business processes, including controls over the preparation, analysis, and review of closing adjustments required to assess the appropriateness of certain account balances at period end.

 

These material weaknesses were considered in determining the nature, timing, and extent of audit tests applied in our audit of the 2018 consolidated financial statements, and this report does not affect our report dated May 29, 2019 on those consolidated financial statements.

 

Definition and Limitations of Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of consolidated financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements.

 

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

 

To The Board of Directors and Stockholders

WageWorks, Inc.

 

Opinion on the Consolidated Financial Statements

 

We have audited the accompanying consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows of WageWorks, Inc. (the “Company”) and subsidiaries for the year ended December 31, 2016, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “consolidated financial statements”). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the results of operations of the Company and subsidiaries and their cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2016 , in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

 

Basis for Opinion

 

These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s consolidated financial statements based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

 

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. We were not engaged to perform an audit of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audit, we were required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

 

Our audit included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Our audit also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Note 1.     Summary of Business and Significant Accounting Policies

 

Business

 

WageWorks, Inc., (together with its subsidiaries, “WageWorks” or the “Company”) was incorporated in the state of Delaware in 2000. The Company is a leader in administering Consumer-Directed Benefits (“CDBs”), which empower employees to save money on taxes while also providing corporate tax advantages for employers.

 

The Company operates as a single reportable segment on an entity level basis, and considers itself to operate under one operating and reporting segment with healthcare, transit and other employer sponsored programs representing a group of similar products lines. The Company believes that it engages in a single business activity and operates in a single economic environment.

 

Principles of Consolidation

 

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of WageWorks, Inc., and its subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

Use of Estimates

 

In preparing the consolidated financial statements and related disclosure in conformity with United States (“U.S.”) generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), including all adjustments as a result of the Company’s restatement, and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), the Company must make estimates and judgments that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Estimates are used for, but not limited to allocation of purchase consideration to acquired assets and liabilities from business combinations, revenue recognition, allowances for doubtful accounts, useful lives for depreciation and amortization, loss contingencies, income taxes, the assumptions used for stock-based compensation including attainment of performance-based awards, the assumptions used for software and web site development cost classification, and recoverability and impairments of goodwill and long-lived assets. Actual results may be materially different from those estimates. In making its estimates, the Company considers the current economic and legislative environment.

 

Cash, Cash Equivalents, and Restricted Cash

 

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of 90 days or less to be cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash on deposit with banks and money market funds, stated at cost, as well as commercial paper with an original maturity of less than 90 days as further described under Marketable Securities below. To the extent the Company’s contracts do not provide for any restrictions on the Company’s use of cash that it receives from clients, the cash is recorded as cash and cash equivalents.

 

The majority of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents represent funding and pre-funding balances received from customers for which the Company has a corresponding current obligation. In all cases where we have collected cash from a customer but not fulfilled services (primarily the payment of participant healthcare claims and commuter benefits), the Company recognizes a related liability to its customers, classified as customer obligations in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

 

Restricted cash represents cash used to collateralize standby letters of credit which were issued to the benefit of a third party to secure a contract with the Company.

Marketable Securities

 

The Company determines the classification of its investments in marketable securities at the time of purchase and accounts for them as available-for-sale. Marketable securities of highly liquid investments with stated maturities of three months or less when purchased are classified as cash equivalents and those with stated maturities of between three months and one year as short-term investments. Marketable securities with maturities beyond twelve months are also included in short-term investments within current assets as the Company intends for its investments to support current operations and other strategic initiatives. These securities are reported at fair value, which includes the accrued interest of interest-bearing securities. Unrealized gains and losses, net of taxes, are included in accumulated other comprehensive loss as a component of stockholders’ equity, except for unrealized losses determined to be other-than-temporary which will be recorded within other income (expense). Realized gains and losses on the sale of marketable securities are recorded in other income (expense).

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. In determining fair value, we utilize valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs to the extent possible and we consider counterparty credit risk in our assessment of fair value. Carrying amounts of financial instruments, including cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and accrued liabilities, approximate their fair values as of the balance sheet dates because of their short maturities. The carrying value of the Company’s debt under the credit facility is estimated to approximate fair value as the variable interest rate approximates the market rate for debt securities with similar terms and risk characteristics. The determination of the fair value of the Company’s marketable securities is further explained in Note 5 Investments and Fair Value Measurements.

 

The Company utilizes valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs to the extent possible. The Company determines fair value based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability in the principal or most advantageous market. When considering market participant assumptions in fair value measurements, the following fair value hierarchy distinguishes between observable and unobservable inputs, which are categorized in one of the following levels:

 

·                   Level 1 Inputs: Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities accessible to the reporting entity at the measurement date. 

 

·                   Level 2 Inputs: Other than quoted prices included in Level 1 inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.

 

·                   Level 3 Inputs: Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability used to measure fair value to the extent that observable inputs are not available, thereby allowing for situations in which there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability at measurement date.

Receivables

 

Receivables represent both trade receivables from customers in relation to fees for the Company’s services and unpaid amounts for benefit services provided by third-party vendors, such as transit agencies and healthcare providers for which the Company records a receivable for funding until the payment is received from the customer and a corresponding customer obligations liability until the Company disburses the balances to the vendors. The Company provides for an allowance for doubtful accounts by specifically identifying accounts with a risk of collectability and providing an estimate of the loss exposure. The Company reviews its allowance for doubtful accounts on a quarterly basis. Account balances are written off against the allowance after all means of collection have been exhausted and the potential for recovery is considered remote. Write-offs for 2018, 2017 and 2016 were not significant.

 

The Company offsets on a customer by customer basis unpaid amounts for benefit services and customer obligation balances for financial reporting presentation. Additionally, the Company offsets outstanding trade and non-trade receivables, including any debit or credit memos, against any prefund balances after plan year close or upon termination of services both based on the completion of a full reconciliation with the customer.

 

Property and Equipment

 

Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation on computer and equipment and furniture and fixtures is calculated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of those assets, ranging from three to five years. Leasehold improvements are amortized on a straight-line basis over the shorter of their estimated useful life or the lease term. When events or circumstances suggest an asset’s life is different than initially estimated, management reassesses the useful life of the asset and recognizes future depreciation prospectively over the revised life.

 

When assets are retired or otherwise disposed of, the cost and related accumulated depreciation / amortization are removed from their respective accounts, and any gain or loss on such sale or disposal is reflected in operating expenses.

 

Maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred. Expenditures that substantially increase an asset’s useful life are capitalized.

 

Software and Website Development Costs

 

Costs incurred to develop software for internal use are capitalized and amortized over the technology’s estimated useful life, generally four years. When events or circumstances suggest an asset’s life is different than initially estimated, management reassesses the useful life of the asset and recognizes future amortization prospectively over the revised life. Costs incurred related to the planning and post implementation phases of development are expensed as incurred. Costs associated with the platform content or the repair or maintenance, including transfer of data between existing platforms are expensed as incurred.

 

Impairment of Long-lived Assets

 

The Company reviews long-lived assets for indicators of impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amounts of such assets may not be recoverable. An impairment of long-lived assets exists when the carrying amount of a long-lived asset group, exceeds its fair value. Such impairment arises in circumstances when such assets are assessed and determined to have no continuing or future benefit. Impairment losses are recorded when the carrying amount of the impaired asset group is not recoverable. Recoverability is determined by comparing the carrying amount of the asset or asset group to the undiscounted cash flows which are expected to be generated from its use. If the carrying amount of the asset group exceeds its estimated future cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized by the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset or asset group exceeds its fair value. The Company did not record impairment losses related to long-lived assets in the years ended December 31,2018 and 2017. The company recorded impairment of $3.7 million during the year ended December 31, 2016. See Note 7 Property and Equipment for more details.

 

Acquisitions, Goodwill and Intangible Assets

 

The cost of an acquisition is allocated to the tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their fair values at the date of acquisition. Goodwill represents the excess cost over the fair value of net assets acquired in the acquisition and is not amortized, but rather is tested for impairment.

 

13


 

WAGEWORKS, INC.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements .

 

Definite lived intangible assets, consisting of client/broker contracts and relationships, trade names, technology, noncompete agreements and favorable lease arrangements, are stated at cost less accumulated amortization. All definite lived intangible assets are amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated remaining economic lives, ranging generally from one to ten years. Amortization expense related to these intangible assets is included in amortization and impairment expense on the consolidated statements of income.

 

The Company performs a goodwill impairment test annually, and more frequently if events and circumstances indicate that the asset might be impaired. In 2018, we changed the date of our annual impairment test from December 31 to October 1. The change was made to more closely align the impairment testing date with our long-range planning and forecasting process, and does not represent a material change to a method of applying an accounting principle. The change in accounting principle related to changing our annual impairment testing date did not delay, accelerate, or avoid an impairment charge.

 

The following are examples of triggering events that could indicate that the fair value of a reporting unit has fallen below the unit’s carrying amount:

 

·                   A significant adverse change in legal factors or in the business climate

 

·                   An adverse action or assessment by a regulator

 

·                   Unanticipated competition

 

·                   A loss of key personnel

 

·                   A more likely than-not expectation that a reporting unit or a significant portion of a reporting unit will be sold or otherwise disposed of

 

An impairment loss is recognized to the extent that the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value. When reviewing goodwill for impairment, the Company assesses whether goodwill should be allocated to operating levels lower than the Company’s single operating segment for which discrete financial information is available and reviewed for decision-making purposes. These lower levels are referred to as reporting units. The Company’s chief operating decision maker, the Chief Executive Officer, does not allocate resources or assess performance at the individual healthcare, commuter, COBRA or other revenue stream level, but rather at the operating segment level. The Company’s one reporting unit was determined to be the Company’s one operating segment.

 

Whenever events or circumstances change, entities have the option to first make a qualitative evaluation about the likelihood of goodwill impairment. In assessing the qualitative factors, the Company assesses relevant events and circumstances that may impact the fair value and the carrying amount of the reporting unit. The identification of relevant events and circumstances and how these may impact a reporting unit’s fair value or carrying amount involve significant judgments and assumptions. The judgment and assumptions include the identification of macroeconomic conditions, industry and market considerations, overall financial performance, Company specific events and share price trends and making the assessment on whether each relevant factor will impact the impairment test positively or negatively and the magnitude of any such impact.

 

The goodwill impairment analysis is a two-step process: first, the reporting unit’s estimated fair value is compared to its carrying value, including goodwill. If the Company determines that the estimated fair value of the reporting unit is less than its carrying value, the Company moves to the second step to determine the implied fair value of the reporting unit’s goodwill. If the carrying amount of the reporting unit’s goodwill exceeds its implied fair value, an impairment loss is recognized for any excess of the carrying amount of the reporting unit’s goodwill over the implied fair value of the reporting unit.

 

If impairment is deemed more likely than not, management would perform the two-step goodwill impairment test. Otherwise, the two-step goodwill impairment test is not required. At October 1, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the Company completed its annual goodwill impairment assessments and management concluded that goodwill is not impaired. There were no events or changes in circumstances during the three months ended December 31, 2018 that caused the Company to perform an interim impairment assessment.

Income Taxes

 

The Company reports income taxes using an asset and liability approach. Deferred tax assets and liabilities arise from the differences between the tax basis of an asset or liability and its reported amount in the consolidated financial statements, as well as from net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax amounts are determined by using the tax rates expected to be in effect when the taxes will actually be paid or refunds received, as provided under current enacted tax law. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. A valuation allowance reduces the deferred tax assets to the amount that is more likely than not to be realized.

 

The Company records a valuation allowance to reduce the deferred tax assets to the amount that the Company believes is more likely than not to be realized based on its judgment of all available positive and negative evidence. The weight given to the potential effect of negative and positive evidence is commensurate with the extent to which the strength of the evidence can be objectively verified. This assessment, which is completed on a taxing jurisdiction basis, takes into account a number of types of evidence, including the following:

 

·                   The nature and history of current or cumulative financial reporting income or losses;

 

·                   Sources of future taxable income;

 

·                   The anticipated reversal or expiration dates of the deferred tax assets; and

 

·                   Tax planning strategies.

 

The Company takes a two-step approach to recognizing and measuring the financial statement benefit of uncertain tax positions. The first step is to evaluate the tax position for recognition by determining whether the weight of available evidence indicates that it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on audit, including resolution of any related appeals or litigation processes. The second step is to measure the tax benefit as the largest amount that is more than 50% likely of being realized upon settlement of the audit. The Company classifies interest and penalties on unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense or benefit.

 

Customer Obligations Liability

 

Many of our customer agreements include provisions whereby our customer remit funds to us which represent prefunds of employer / client and employee participant contributions related to FSA, HRA and commuter programs. The agreements do not represent restricted cash and accordingly the amounts received are included in cash and cash equivalents on our consolidated balance sheets with a corresponding liability recorded as customer obligations. Our customers generally provide us with prefunds for their FSA and HRA programs based on a percentage of projected spending by the employee participants for the plan year and other factors. In the case of our commuter program, at the beginning of each month we receive prefunds based on the employee participants’ monthly elections. These prefunds are typically replenished throughout the year by our FSA, HRA and commuter clients as benefits are provided under these programs.

 

The Company offsets on a customer by customer basis non-trade accounts receivable and customer obligation balances for financial reporting presentation. Additionally, the Company offsets outstanding trade and non-trade receivables, including any debit or credit memos, against any prefund balances after plan year close or upon termination of services both based on the completion of a full reconciliation with the customer.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

Policy from January 1, 2018

 

On January 1, 2018, we adopted the requirements of Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) (“ASC 606”) as discussed further in Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements below. ASC 606 establishes a principle for recognizing revenue upon the transfer of promised goods or services to customers, in an amount that reflects the expected

 

15


 

WAGEWORKS, INC.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements .

 

consideration received in exchange for those goods or services. ASC 606 also includes Subtopic 340-40, Other Assets and Deferred Costs-Contracts with Customers, which requires the deferral of incremental costs of obtaining a contract with a customer. Collectively, references to ASC 606 used herein refer to both ASC 606 and Subtopic 340-40.

 

We account for revenue contracts with customers by applying the requirements of ASC 606, which include the following steps:

 

·                   Identification of the contract, or contracts, with the customer;

 

·                   Identification of the performance obligations in the contract;

 

·                   Determination of the transaction price;

 

·                   Allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and

 

·                   Recognition of the revenue when, or as, the Company satisfies a performance obligation.

 

Our revenues are derived primarily from benefit service administration, interchange fees, commissions revenue, and other revenue. Other revenue includes services related to enrollment and eligibility, non-healthcare, and employee account administration (i.e., tuition and health club reimbursements) and project-related professional services. We account for individual products and services separately if they are distinct-that is, if a product or service is separately identifiable from other items in the contract and if a customer can benefit from it on its own or with other resources that are readily available to the customer.

 

We account for a contract with a customer when there is approval and commitment from both parties, the rights of the parties are identified, payment terms are identified, the contract has commercial substance and collectability of consideration is probable. We measure revenue based on the consideration specified in the contract with each customer, net of any sales incentives and taxes collected on behalf of government authorities. To the extent the transaction price includes variable consideration, and we are unable to apply the variable consideration allocation exception, we estimate the amount of variable consideration that should be included in the transaction price utilizing the expected value method based on term of billing arrangements and historical data. We recognize revenue in a manner that best depicts the transfer of promised goods or services to the customer, when control of the product or service is transferred to a customer. We make significant judgments when determining the appropriate timing of revenue recognition.

 

Based upon similar operational and economic characteristics, the Company’s revenues are disaggregated into Healthcare, Commuter, COBRA and Other revenue. 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.

 

·                   Healthcare and commuter programs include revenues generated from the monthly administration services based on employee participant levels and interchange and other commission revenues.

 

·                   COBRA revenue is generated from the administration of continuation of coverage services for participants who are no longer eligible for the employer’s health benefits, such as medical, dental, vision and for the continued administration of employee participants’ Health Reimbursement Arrangements (“HRAs”), and certain healthcare Flexible Spending Accounts (“FSAs”).

 

·                   Other revenue includes services related to enrollment and eligibility, non-healthcare, employee account administration (i.e., tuition and health club reimbursements).

 

Within our Healthcare and Commuter service lines, we have determined that our administration services are a single continuous service comprised of a series of distinct services that are substantially the same and that have the same pattern of transfer (i.e. distinct days of service). These services are consumed as they are received and the Company recognizes service revenue over time on a monthly basis as it satisfies its performance obligations. As such, the Company recognizes revenue in each month for the administration services provided in that month using the variable consideration allocation exception.  The Company applies this exception because it concluded that the nature of its obligations and the variable payment terms are aligned and the uncertainty related to the consideration is resolved

 

16


 

WAGEWORKS, INC.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements .

 

on a monthly basis as the Company satisfies its obligations. The administration services are typically billed in the period in which services are performed.

 

COBRA requires employers to make health coverage available for terminated employees for a period of up to 36 months post-termination. Similar to our Healthcare and Commuter service lines, our COBRA administration services are a single continuous service. These services are consumed as they are received and the Company recognizes service revenue over time on a monthly basis as it satisfies its performance obligations. As such, the Company recognizes revenue in each month for the COBRA administration services provided in that month using the variable consideration allocation exception. The administration services are typically billed in the period in which services are performed.

 

We also recognize revenues that are generated from the use of debit cards used by employee participants related to the distribution, management and monitoring of such cards which are used by participants in connection with our benefits administration services for Healthcare and Commuter service lines. These related fees are known as interchange fees and are based upon a percentage of the amounts transacted on each card. We have determined that our performance obligation for interchange is a single continuous service, which is satisfied over time each month. Therefore, we recognize interchange revenue on a monthly basis based on the services provided and use the variable consideration allocation exception. The interchange revenues are typically billed in the period in which services are performed.

 

Professional services revenue consists of fees related to services provided to the Company’s employer clients to accommodate their reporting or administrative requirements. We recognize revenue from professional services as the services are performed or upon written acceptance from customers, if applicable, or acceptance provisions have lapsed assuming all other conditions for revenue recognition noted above have been met.

 

Contract Assets Contract assets include amounts related to our enforceable right to consideration for completed performance obligations not yet invoiced. The contract assets are transferred to the receivables balance when the rights become unconditional.

 

Contract Liabilities Contract liabilities are recorded as deferred revenues and include payments received in advance of performance under the contract. We generally invoice our customers for services as they are provided on a monthly basis, however in limited instances we may invoice in advance of services to be provided. Contract liabilities are recognized as revenue when the services are provided to the customer. Contract liabilities that are anticipated to be recognized during the succeeding twelve-month period are recorded as current deferred revenue and the remaining portion is recorded as noncurrent.

 

Contract Costs ASC 606 requires the recognition of an asset for the incremental costs of obtaining a contract with a customer if the entity expects to recover such costs. Incremental costs are costs that would not have been incurred if the contract had not been obtained. Examples of contract costs are commissions paid to sales personnel. Sales commissions earned by the Company’s sales force are considered incremental and recoverable costs of obtaining a contract with a customer. Sales commissions for initial contracts are deferred and then amortized on a straight-line basis over a period of benefit that has been determined to be six years which approximates the transfer of benefits to customers. The Company determined the period of benefit by taking into consideration the length of customer contracts, useful life of developed technology, regulatory oversight the Company is subject to, and other factors. Amortization expense is included in sales and marketing expenses in the Consolidated Statements of Income.

 

Revenue Recognition Policy before January 1, 2018

 

The Company recognizes revenue when collectability is reasonably assured, service has been performed, persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, and there is a fixed or determinable fee.

 

Benefit service fees are recognized on a monthly basis as services are rendered and earned under service arrangements where fees and commissions are fixed or determinable and collectability is reasonably assured. Benefit service fees are based on a fee for service model (e.g., monthly fee per participant) in which revenue is recognized on a monthly basis as services are rendered under price quotations or service agreements having stipulated terms and conditions, which do not require management to make any significant judgments or assumptions regarding any potential uncertainties.

 

Vendor and bank interchange revenues are attributed to revenue sharing arrangements the Company enters into with certain banks and card associations, whereby the Company shares a portion of the transaction fees earned by these financial institutions on debit cards the Company issues to its employee participants based on a percentage of total dollars transacted as reported on third-party reports.

Cost of revenue is presented on an aggregate basis because the Company provides for services at the client level and not by product.

 

Stock-based Compensation

 

Stock-based compensation expense is estimated at the grant date based on the award’s fair value as calculated by the Black-Scholes or Monte Carlo option pricing model or the market value of the Company’s stock on the grant date and is recognized as an expense over the requisite service period, which is generally the vesting period. The determination of the fair value of stock-based awards on the date of grant using an option pricing model is affected by our stock price as well as assumptions regarding a number of complex and subjective variables. These variables include the estimated volatility over the expected term of the awards, actual and projected employee stock option exercise behaviors, risk-free interest rates, estimated forfeitures, and expected dividends.

 

Restricted Stock Units (“RSUs”), Market-based performance RSUs, and Performance-based Stock Units (“PSUs”) are measured based on the fair market values of the underlying stock on the dates of grant. The vesting of PSUs awarded is conditioned upon the attainment of performance objectives over a specified period and upon continued employment through the applicable vesting date. At the end of the performance period, shares of stock subject to PSUs vest based upon both the level of achievement of performance objectives within the performance period and continued employment through the applicable vesting date.

 

Stock-based compensation expense is calculated based on awards ultimately expected to vest and is reduced for estimated forfeitures at the time of grant and revised, if necessary, in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates. The estimated annual forfeiture rates for stock options, RSUs, and PSUs are based on historical forfeiture experience.

 

The estimated fair value of stock options and RSUs are expensed on a straight-line basis over the vesting term of the grant and the estimated fair value of PSUs are expensed using an accelerated method over the term of the award once management has determined that it is probable that the performance objective will be achieved. Compensation expense is recorded over the requisite service period based on management’s best estimate as to whether it is probable that the shares awarded are expected to vest. Management assesses the probability of the performance milestones being met on a continuous basis.

 

We estimate expected volatility based on the historical volatility of comparable companies from a representative peer-group as well as our own historical volatility. We estimate the expected term based on historical experience, giving consideration to the contractual terms of the stock-based awards, vesting schedules and expectations of future employee behavior such as exercises and forfeitures. We base the risk-free interest rate on zero-coupon yields implied from U.S. Treasury issues with remaining terms similar to the expected term of the options. We do not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future, and therefore, used an expected dividend yield of zero in the option pricing model. We estimate forfeitures at the time of grant and revise those estimates in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates. The estimated attainment of performance-based awards and related expense is based on the expectations of revenue and earnings before interest, tax and depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”) target achievement over a specified three year performance period. If we use different assumptions for estimating stock-based compensation expense in future periods, or if actual forfeitures differ materially from our estimated forfeitures, future stock-based compensation expense may differ significantly from what we have recorded in the current period and could materially affect our income from operations, net income and net income per share.

 

Other Comprehensive Loss

 

Other comprehensive loss includes certain changes in equity that are excluded from net income. As of December 31, 2018, accumulated other comprehensive loss includes a $1.0 million unrealized loss, net of $0.2 million of income taxes, related to unrealized gains/losses on marketable securities.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

Recently Adopted Accounting Guidance

 

In March 2016, the FASB Issued ASU 2016-09,  Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting. The new guidance requires excess tax benefits and tax deficiencies to be recorded in the income statement when an award vests or are settled. In addition, cash flows related to excess tax benefits will no longer be separately classified as financing activity but should be classified as operating activities. The standard also increases the amount of shares an employer can withhold for tax purposes without triggering liability

 

18


 

WAGEWORKS, INC.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements .

 

accounting, clarifies that all cash payments made on employee’s behalf for withheld shares should be presented as a financing activity in the statements of cash flows, and provides an entity-wide accounting policy election to account for forfeitures as they occur.

 

The Company adopted this standard during the first quarter of 2017. As required by the standard, excess tax benefits recognized on stock-based compensation expense were reflected in our consolidated statements of income as a component of the provision for income taxes rather than additional paid-in capital on a prospective basis. The cumulative effect of this accounting change resulted in an increase of $3.7 million to deferred tax assets as of December 31, 2017 and an increase to the opening retained earnings of $3.7 million as of January 1, 2017. The Company recorded excess tax benefits in the amount of $0.4 million and $15.8 million within our provision for income taxes in the consolidated statements of income during the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

 

For presentation requirements, the Company elected to prospectively apply the change in the presentation of excess tax benefits wherein excess tax benefits recognized on stock-based compensation expense were classified in operating activities on the consolidated statements of cash flows. Prior period classification of cash flows related to excess tax benefits were not adjusted.

 

The Company elected to retrospectively apply the ASU 2016-09 presentation requirements for cash flows related to employee taxes paid for withheld shares to be presented as financing activities. Consequently, on the consolidated statements of cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2016, the Company reclassified $6.1 million, to increase net cash provided by operating activities and decrease net cash provided by financing activities.

 

In May 2014, the Financial and Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU No. 2014-09, “ Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)” , amending revenue recognition guidance and requiring more detailed disclosures to enable users of financial statements to understand the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers. ASC 606 is effective for annual and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, with early adoption permitted for public companies effective for annual and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016. We adopted ASC 606 on January 1, 2018 by applying the modified retrospective approach to all contracts that were not completed as of January 1, 2018. Results for the reporting period beginning January 1, 2018 are presented under ASC 606, while prior periods are not adjusted and continue to be reported under the accounting standards in effect for the prior period. We recorded an increase in total assets of $9.3 million and an increase in retained earnings of $6.9 million (net of tax effect) as of January 1, 2018 attributed to the deferral of commission cost. The tax impact resulted in an increase in deferred tax liabilities in the amount of $2.4 million with an offset to retained earnings upon adoption. See Note 2 Revenue for more details.

 

In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash . ASU No. 2016-18 addresses diversity in practice from entities classifying and presenting transfers between cash and restricted cash as operating, investing or financing activities or as a combination of those activities in the statement of cash flows. The ASU requires entities to show the changes in the total of cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents in the Statement of Cash Flows. As a result, transfers between such categories are no longer be presented in the Statement of Cash Flows. The Company adopted this standard on January 1, 2018 using the retrospective method. This amendment did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

 

In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-01, “ Financial Instruments-Overall: Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities .” This guidance principally affects accounting standards for equity investments, financial liabilities where the fair value option has been elected, and the presentation and disclosure requirements for financial instruments. Upon the effective date of the new guidance, all equity investments in unconsolidated entities, other than those accounted for using the equity method of accounting, will generally be measured at fair value through earnings. There will no longer be an available-for-sale classification and therefore, no changes in fair value will be reported in other comprehensive income (loss) for equity securities with readily determinable fair values. The Company adopted this standard on January 1, 2018. This amendment did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

 

In March 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standard Update No. 2016-04, Recognition of Breakage for Certain Prepaid Stored-Value Products  (“ASU 2016-04”). The new guidance creates an exception under ASC 405-20, Liabilities-Extinguishments of Liabilities, to derecognize financial liabilities related to certain prepaid stored-value products using a revenue-like breakage model. The Company adopted this update on January 1, 2018. This amendment did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

WAGEWORKS, INC.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements .

 

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-15, Statement of Cash flows: Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments . The update provides specific guidance on a number of cash flow classification issues including contingent consideration payments made after a business combination, proceeds from settlement of insurance claims, proceeds from settlement of corporate-owned life insurance policies, including bank-owned life insurance policies, distributions received from equity method investees and separately identifiable cash flows and application of the predominance principle. The Company adopted this update on January 1, 2018. This amendment did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

 

In May 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-09, Compensation-Stock Compensation: Scope of Modification Accounting (“ASU 2017-09”). The update amends the scope of modification accounting for shared-based payment arrangements to specify that modification accounting would not be applicable if the fair value, vesting conditions and classification of the shared-based awards are the same immediately before and after the modification. The Company adopted this update on January 1, 2018. This update did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

 

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

 

In February 2016, the FASB, issued ASU, No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) , which requires lessees to apply a dual approach, classifying leases as either finance or operating leases based on the principle of whether or not the lease is effectively a financed purchase by the lessee. This classification will determine whether lease expense is recognized based on an effective interest method or on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. A lessee is also required to record a right-of-use asset and a lease liability for all leases with a term of greater than 12 months regardless of their classification. Leases with a term of 12 months or less will be accounted for similar to existing guidance for operating leases.

 

The Company will adopt the standard effective in the first quarter of 2019 and will not restate comparative periods upon adoption under the effective date method. The Company will elect a package of practical expedients for leases that commenced prior to January 1, 2019 and will not reassess: (i) whether any expired or existing contracts are or contain leases; (ii) lease classification for any expired or existing leases; and (iii) initial direct costs capitalization for any existing leases. The Company will make an accounting policy election to keep leases with an initial term of 12 months or less off of the balance sheet. The Company will recognize those lease payments in the consolidated statements of income on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

 

The Company currently expects that our operating lease commitments will be subject to the new standard and recognized as operating lease liabilities and right-of-use assets upon adoption of Topic 842, which will increase the total assets and total liabilities that were reported relative to such amounts prior to adoption. The Company expects to record a range from $25 million to $40 million of right of use assets and lease liabilities for operating and finance leases in the balance sheet in the first quarter of 2019. Refer to Note 15 for further information on operating lease commitments. The Company plans to adopt Topic 842 using the alternative modified retrospective approach with the cumulative effect of adoption recognized to retained earnings on January 1, 2019. The Company does not believe the new standard will have a material impact on the consolidated statements of income, nor will it have a notable impact on liquidity. The standard will also have no material impact on debt-covenant compliance under our current agreements.

 

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, “ Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, ” which amends the FASB’s guidance on the impairment of financial instruments. The ASU adds to GAAP an impairment model (known as the “current expected credit loss model”) that is based on expected losses rather than incurred losses. ASU 2016-13 is effective for annual reporting periods ending after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is currently evaluating the timing and impact of adoption on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

 

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-04, “ Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment. ” The amendments eliminate Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test. The annual, or interim, goodwill impairment test is performed by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount. An impairment charge should be recognized for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value; however, the loss recognized should not exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. In addition, income tax effects from any tax deductible goodwill on the carrying amount of the reporting unit should be considered when measuring the goodwill impairment loss, if applicable. The amendments also eliminate the requirements for any reporting unit with a zero or negative carrying amount to perform a qualitative assessment and, if it fails that qualitative test, to perform Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test. An entity still has the option to perform the qualitative assessment for a reporting unit to determine if the quantitative impairment test is necessary. The new standard is expected to be effective

for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the timing and impact of adoption on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

 

In February 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-02,  “Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income (Topic 220) - Reclassification of Certain Tax Effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income” . This standard allows a reclassification from accumulated other comprehensive income to retained earnings for stranded tax effects resulting from the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act and requires certain disclosures about stranded tax effects and will be effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2019 and should be applied either in the period of adoption or retrospectively. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the timing and impact of adoption on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

 

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-13,  “Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework-Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement.”  The primary focus of ASU 2018-13 is to improve the effectiveness of the disclosure requirements for fair value measurements. The changes affect all companies that are required to include fair value measurement disclosures. In general, the amendments in this standard are effective for all entities for fiscal years and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the timing and impact of adoption on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

 

In November 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-19,  “Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses.”  ASU 2018-19 clarifies that receivables arising from operating leases are not within the scope of the credit losses standard, but rather, should be accounted for in accordance with the leases standard. In general, the amendments in this standard are effective for public business entities that meet the definition of a SEC filer for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is currently evaluating the timing and impact of adoption on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

 

Note 2     Revenue

 

On January 1, 2018, we adopted ASC 606, applying the modified retrospective method to all contracts that were not completed as of that date. Results for reporting periods beginning after January 1, 2018 are presented under ASC 606, while prior period results are not adjusted and continue to be reported in accordance with Topic 605, Revenue Recognition. We generally invoice our customers at the beginning of the term on a monthly basis with a term of net 30-60 days. We applied the practical expedient provided by ASC 606 and did not evaluate contracts of one year or less for the existence of a significant financing component. Our policy is to exclude sales and other indirect taxes when measuring the transaction price. The primary impact of adopting ASC 606 relates to the deferral of incremental costs of obtaining customer contracts and the amortization of those costs over the period of benefit. We recorded an increase in total assets of $9.3 million and an increase in retained earnings of $6.9 million (net of tax effect) as of January 1, 2018. The tax impact resulted in an increase in deferred tax liabilities in the amount of $2.4 million with an offset to retained earnings upon adoption. The adoption of the preceding standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s revenue for the year ended December 31, 2018.

Contract Balances

 

We generally do not recognize revenue in advance of invoicing our customers, however, we record a receivable when revenue is recognized prior to payment and we have unconditional right to payment. Alternatively, when payment precedes the related services, we record a contract liability, or deferred revenue, until our performance obligations are satisfied. Our deferred revenue as of December 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017 was $3.9 million and $3.4 million, respectively. The balances related to cash received in advance for a certain interchange revenue arrangement, other up-front fees and other commuter deferred revenue. The Company expects to satisfy its remaining obligations for these arrangements.

 

Contract Costs

 

Contract costs relate to incremental costs of obtaining a contract with a customer. Contract costs, which primarily consist of deferred sales commissions, were $8.8 million and $9.3 million as of December 31, 2018 and January 1, 2018, respectively and are included in other assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Amortization expense for the deferred costs was $2.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2018. There was no impairment loss in relation to the costs capitalized for the periods presented. Deferred contract costs are amortized on a straight-line basis over the period of benefit, which is consistent with the pattern of transfer of the good or service to which the asset relates.

Note 4.    Acquisitions and Channel Partner Arrangements

 

Acquisition of the ADP CHSA/COBRA Business

 

On November 28, 2016, the Company completed the Asset Purchase Agreement (“APA”) with ADP, a leading global provider of Human Capital Management solutions, to acquire ADP’s CHSA, COBRA, and direct bill businesses (together the “ADP CHSA/COBRA Business”) for approximately $235.0 million in cash. In connection with the APA, the Company borrowed $169.9 million against its then $250.0 million revolving credit facility which had a maturity date of June 5, 2020. See Note 10 Long-term Debt for updated credit facility terms.

 

Purchase Price Consideration and Allocation for the ADP CHSA/COBRA Business

 

In accordance with Accounting Standards Codification Topic 805, Business Combinations (“ASC 805”), the acquisition was accounted for under the acquisition method of accounting. Under the acquisition method of accounting, the total purchase consideration, assets acquired and the liabilities assumed are measured at fair value as of the date of acquisition when control is obtained. The fair value of the consideration transferred, the assets acquired and liabilities assumed was determined by the Company and in doing so estimated the fair value of the identifiable intangible assets acquired. The following table summarizes the fair value of total consideration transferred for the acquisition, the total fair value of net identifiable assets acquired and the goodwill recorded (in thousands):

Ceridian Channel Partner Arrangement

 

In July 2013, the Company entered into a channel partner arrangement with Ceridian, a global product and services company. Pursuant to the arrangement, Ceridian’s CDB account administration business for FSA and HRA was fully transitioned to the Company as of January 2015 with a final purchase price of $13.5 million. The Company accounted for this client acquisition as an asset purchase. In conjunction with the transition, the Company also entered into a separate reseller arrangement with Ceridian.

 

In September 2015, the Company entered into another agreement with Ceridian to transition its COBRA and direct bill portfolio to the Company. In April 2016, the Company completed the transition of this portfolio. The total cash consideration paid in 2016 and 2015 was $21.1 million and $0.4 million, respectively, and was recorded as acquired intangible assets. This relationship also allows Ceridian as a channel partner to resell the Company’s COBRA and direct bill services to their new and existing clients in addition to their full suite of healthcare and commuter products.

 

Tango Acquisition

 

In September 2017, the Company and Tango Health, Inc. (“Tango”) entered into an Asset Purchase and Transition Agreement to acquire and transfer certain assets held by Tango related to benefits administration services for Health Savings Accounts for $4.1 million. The Company accounted for the Tango transaction as an asset purchase because it did not qualify as a business combination. The agreement contains a holdback obligation of $2.1 million which was paid in December 2017 upon completion of the transition of the intangible asset portfolio. Total cash consideration paid was recorded as acquired intangible assets which are amortized over seven years.

As of December 31, 2018, the Company had no investments that were in an unrealized loss position for a period of twelve months or greater. The Company conducts a regular assessment of its debt securities with unrealized losses to determine whether securities have other-than-temporary impairment considering, among other factors, the nature of the securities, credit rating or financial condition of the issuer, the extent and duration of the unrealized loss, expected cash flows of underlying collateral, market conditions and whether the Company intends to sell or it is more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell the debt securities. The Company did not have any other-than-temporary impairment in its available-for-sale securities at December 31, 2018.

During the years ended December 31, 2018, 2017 and 2016, the Company capitalized software development costs of $21.9 million, $20.5 million, and $14.8 million, respectively. Amortization expense related to capitalized software development costs was $16.0 million, $12.1 million and $15.2 million for 2018, 2017 and 2016, respectively. These costs are included in amortization and impairment expense in the accompanying consolidated statements of income. At December 31, 2018, the unamortized capitalized software development costs included in property and equipment in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets was $40.3 million.

 

Total depreciation expense plus amortization of software and internally developed software for the years ended December 31, 2018, 2017 and 2016 was $30.0 million, $23.5 million, and $23.9 million, respectively.

 

As of December 31, 2018 and 2017, property and equipment acquired under capital lease obligations was $1.2 million and $1.7 million, respectively, and was classified as computers and equipment. Accumulated depreciation for assets acquired under capital lease obligations was $0.8 million and $1.1 million as of December 31, 2018 and 2017.

 

In 2016, the Company re-assessed the fair value of KP Connector which is an internal use software developed by the Company based on the specifications outlined in a client agreement. In the second quarter of 2016, the client notified the Company that it no longer required the services provided by the Company. Accordingly, the Company determined that KP Connector’s carrying value was considered unrecoverable as of June 30, 2016, and recorded a $3.7 million impairment charge to amortization and impairment expense in the consolidated statements of income and a corresponding reduction of property and equipment, net, in the consolidated balance sheets.
