Basis of Presentation | Basis of Presentation The accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) of Black Knight, Inc. and its subsidiaries ("Black Knight," the "Company," "we," "us" or "our") were prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), and all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. The preparation of these Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited), as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates. This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") on February 28, 2020 and other filings with the SEC. Description of Business We are a leading provider of integrated software, data and analytics solutions to the mortgage and consumer loan, real estate and capital markets verticals. Our solutions facilitate and automate many of the mission-critical business processes across the homeownership lifecycle. We are committed to being a premier business partner that clients rely on to achieve their strategic goals, realize greater success and better serve their customers by delivering best-in-class software, services and insights with a relentless commitment to excellence, innovation, integrity and leadership. Principles of Consolidation On July 26, 2020, we entered into a definitive equity purchase agreement with affiliates of private equity firm GTCR, LLC, to purchase Optimal Blue, LLC ("Optimal Blue"), a leading provider of secondary market solutions and actionable data services. We also entered into forward purchase agreements with Cannae Holdings, LLC ("Cannae") and affiliates of Thomas H. Lee Partners, L.P. (“THL”) (collectively, the "FPAs"), whereby Cannae and affiliates of THL agreed to each acquire 20% of the equity interests of a newly formed entity, Optimal Blue Holdco, LLC ("Optimal Blue Holdco"), for a purchase price of $289.0 million. Optimal Blue Holdco was formed for the purpose of acquiring Optimal Blue and certain affiliates. On September 15, 2020, we completed a series of transactions and completed the acquisition of Optimal Blue. In connection with the acquisition of Optimal Blue, we contributed $762.0 million in cash and our Compass Analytics business to Optimal Blue Holdco. In addition, Black Knight InfoServ, LLC ("BKIS"), our indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary, provided $500.0 million in cash in exchange for a note with Optimal Blue Holdco (the "OB Holdco Note"). The OB Holdco Note bears interest at a rate of 6.125%, which is payable on a semi-annual basis beginning March 1, 2021, and matures on September 1, 2028. Immediately prior to the closing of the Optimal Blue acquisition, we, together with Black Knight Technologies, LLC ("BKT"), our indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary, Optimal Blue Holdco, Cannae and THL, entered into an Amended and Restated Limited Liability Company Agreement of Optimal Blue Holdco (the "OB Holdco LLC Agreement"). As of September 30, 2020, we own 60% of Optimal Blue Holdco. Optimal Blue Holdco is subject to the consolidation guidance related to variable interest entities as set forth in Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 810, Consolidation ("ASC 810"). We are the primary beneficiary of Optimal Blue Holdco through our controlling interest and possess the rights established in the OB Holdco LLC Agreement. As such, we control Optimal Blue Holdco and its subsidiaries and consolidate its financial position and results of operations. Intercompany transactions between us and Optimal Blue Holdco and its subsidiaries are eliminated in consolidation. Refer to the "Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests" section below and Note 2 — Business Acquisitions for additional information. Reporting Segments We conduct our operations through two reporting segments: (1) Software Solutions and (2) Data and Analytics. See further discussion in Note 16 — Segment Information. Share Repurchase Program On February 12, 2020, our Board of Directors approved a three-year share repurchase program authorizing us to repurchase up to 10.0 million shares of our outstanding common stock through February 12, 2023, through open market purchases, negotiated transactions or other means, in accordance with applicable securities laws and other restrictions. This share repurchase program replaces our previous share repurchase program that expired on February 2, 2020. There were no share repurchases during the nine months ended September 30, 2020. During the nine months ended September 30, 2019, we repurchased 0.2 million shares of our common stock for $11.9 million, or an average of $57.94 per share. Common Stock Offering On June 19, 2020, we issued and sold 7,130,000 shares of our common stock in an underwritten public offering pursuant to a registration statement filed with the SEC. We received net proceeds of approximately $484.6 million after deducting the underwriters' discount of $16.3 million. We also incurred costs directly related to the offering of $0.4 million. Cash and Cash Equivalents Highly liquid instruments purchased with original maturities of three months or less are considered cash equivalents. Cash equivalents are invested with high credit quality financial institutions and consist of short-term investments, such as demand deposit accounts, money market accounts, money market funds and time deposits. The carrying amounts of these instruments reported in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets (Unaudited) approximate their fair value because of their immediate or short-term maturities. Cash and cash equivalents are unrestricted and include the following (in millions):
Trade Receivables, Net The carrying amounts reported in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets (Unaudited) for Trade receivables, net approximate their fair value because of their short-term nature. A summary of Trade receivables, net of allowance for credit losses is as follows (in millions):
In addition to the amounts above, we have unbilled receivables that we do not expect to collect within the next year included in Other non-current assets in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets (Unaudited). Billings for these receivables are based on contractual terms. Refer to Note 9 — Other Non-Current Assets. Prepaid Expenses and Other Current Assets Prepaid expenses and other current assets consist of the following (in millions):
Contract Assets Our short-term contract assets are included in Prepaid expenses and other current assets in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets (Unaudited). Our long-term contract assets are included in Other non-current assets in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets (Unaudited). Refer to Note 9 — Other Non-Current Assets. Allowance for Credit Losses We record our billed and unbilled trade receivables and contract assets at their amortized cost less an allowance for expected credit losses that are not expected to be recovered. We recognize an allowance for the remaining lifetime expected credit losses based on management’s expectation of collectability. We base our estimate on multiple factors including historical experience with bad debts, our relationship with our clients and their credit quality, the aging of respective asset balances, current macroeconomic conditions and management’s expectations of conditions in the future. Our allowance for expected credit losses is based on management’s assessment of the collectability of assets with similar risk characteristics. We pool our respective asset balances based on risk characteristics primarily related to financial asset type, extent of client relationship, product/solution, business division and delinquency status. Subsequent changes are recorded as an adjustment in Operating expenses. We write off trade receivables in the period when the likelihood of collection of a trade receivable balance is considered remote. Investments in Unconsolidated Affiliates We account for our investments in unconsolidated affiliates using the equity method of accounting when we determine we have significant influence over our investee. We record our share of equity-based compensation expense from equity method investments as an adjustment to our investment with a related adjustment to our equity. Deferred Revenues Deferred revenues represent our obligations to transfer solutions or services to our clients for which we have received consideration, or an amount of consideration is due, from the client. During the three months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, revenues recognized related to the amount included in the Deferred revenues balance at the beginning of each year were $11.6 million and $12.8 million, respectively. During the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, revenues recognized related to the amount included in the Deferred revenues balance at the beginning of each year were $39.9 million and $45.4 million, respectively. Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests Redeemable noncontrolling interests represent the collective 40% equity interest owned by Cannae and THL in Optimal Blue Holdco. We have call rights on THL's and Cannae’s equity interests in Optimal Blue Holdco that are exercisable beginning September 15, 2023 at a call price equal to the greater of (i) the fair market value of such interests and (ii) an amount that would result in the multiple of THL’s or Cannae’s return on investment to equal 2.0, as applicable. In addition, THL and Cannae have the right to put their respective interests in Optimal Blue Holdco to (i) Optimal Blue Holdco if there is a change of control of Black Knight or (ii) Optimal Blue Holdco, BKT or Black Knight that are exercisable beginning September 15, 2023. We have the option to satisfy the purchase price, which shall be equal to the fair market value of such interest, in connection with the exercise of any put or call right either in cash or Black Knight common stock other than a put in connection with a change of control of Black Knight, in which case the purchase price is payable only in cash. The equity interests will be settled at the current fair value at the time we receive notice of the put election as determined by the parties or by a third party appraisal under the terms of OB Holdco LLC Agreement. As these redeemable noncontrolling interests provide for redemption features not solely within our control, they are presented on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets (Unaudited) outside of shareholders' equity. We recognize any changes in the redemption price related to these redeemable noncontrolling interests as they occur through Additional paid-in capital. Equity-Based Compensation We expense employee equity-based payments in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 718, Compensation — Stock Compensation, which requires compensation cost measured using the grant date fair value of equity-based payments to be recognized over the requisite service period, which generally equals the vesting period. For awards with a performance condition, we recognize compensation cost under the graded vesting method over the requisite service period of the award, which at times results in accelerated recognition of the cost. We do not recognize compensation cost if the performance condition is not considered probable of achievement. If at any point we determine that the performance condition is improbable of achievement, we reverse any previously recognized compensation cost for that award. The fair value of our restricted stock awards is measured based on the closing market price of our stock on the grant date. Income tax effects of awards are recorded in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings and Comprehensive Earnings (Unaudited) when the awards vest or are settled. We account for forfeitures as they occur. Depreciation and Amortization Depreciation and amortization includes the following (in millions):
Deferred contract costs amortization for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 includes accelerated amortization of $2.5 million and $6.1 million, respectively. We did not recognize any accelerated amortization during the 2020 periods. Transition and Integration Costs Transition and integration costs for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019 primarily consisted of costs associated with acquisitions and expense reduction initiatives. Refer to Note 2 — Business Acquisitions for additional information related to transaction costs incurred related to the Optimal Blue acquisition. Recent Accounting Pronouncements Current Expected Credit Losses ("CECL") (ASC Topic 326, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses ("ASC 326")) In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses, as well as several other related updates, which were codified as ASC 326. This update changes how companies measure and recognize credit losses for many financial assets. The new standard requires companies to immediately recognize an estimate of credit losses expected to occur over the remaining life of the financial assets included in the scope of this standard. Our financial assets that are included in the scope of ASC 326 are primarily receivables and contract assets. We applied an integrated approach to analyzing the effects of adopting ASC 326, including developing accounting policies and positions, evaluating differences from applying the requirements of the new standard to our previous business practices and assessing the need for any changes in our processes and design of internal controls. The primary effect of adopting the new standard relates to the changes in our estimated credit losses and providing additional disclosures about our financial assets that are included in the scope of this new standard. Based on our assessment, we did not identify a material change in our financial condition, results of operation or business practices. We adopted ASC 326 on January 1, 2020 using a modified retrospective approach. The effect of adoption was an adjustment of $1.1 million, net of tax to opening Retained earnings on our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Equity (Unaudited). Other Accounting Pronouncements In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting. This update provides for optional financial reporting alternatives to reduce the cost and complexity associated with the accounting for contracts and hedging relationships affected by reference rate reform. The accommodations are effective for all entities through December 31, 2022. They may be applied from the beginning of the interim period that includes the issuance of this update. We do not expect the adoption of this update to have a material effect on our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) and related disclosures. In January 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-01, Investments—Equity Securities (Topic 321), Investments—Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323), and Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815). The amendments clarify that an entity should consider observable transactions that require it to either apply or discontinue the equity method of accounting for the purposes of applying the measurement alternative in accordance with Topic 321 immediately before applying or upon discontinuing the equity method. This update also clarifies certain interactions between the guidance to account for certain equity securities, equity method investments and the guidance in Topic 815, including measuring certain purchased options and forward contracts to acquire investments. This update is effective prospectively for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, with early adoption permitted. We do not expect the adoption of this update to have a material effect on our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) and related disclosures.

Business Acquisition | Business Acquisitions We include the results of operations of acquired businesses beginning on the respective acquisition dates. The purchase price is allocated to the tangible and intangible assets acquired and the liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values, with the excess recorded as goodwill. Measurement period adjustments to provisional purchase price allocations are recognized in the period in which they are determined, with the effect on earnings of changes in depreciation, amortization or other income resulting from such changes calculated as if the accounting had been completed on the acquisition date. Acquisition-related costs are expensed as incurred. During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, we completed the acquisitions of the equity interests of Collateral Analytics, LLC ("Collateral Analytics"), the technology assets and business of DocVerify and the equity interests of Optimal Blue and certain affiliates. None of these acquisitions met the definition of "significant" pursuant to Article 3 of Regulation S-X (§210.3-05) either individually or in the aggregate. Further details of each acquisition are discussed below. Allocation of purchase price The purchase prices of the acquisitions were allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair value at the acquisition date. The fair value of the acquired Computer software and Other intangible assets were primarily determined using a third-party valuation based on significant estimates and assumptions, including Level 3 inputs, which are judgmental in nature. These estimates and assumptions include the projected timing and amount of future cash flows and discount rates reflecting the risk inherent in the future cash flows. Collateral Analytics and DocVerify Acquisitions On March 3, 2020, we completed the acquisition of Collateral Analytics, a provider of real estate products and tools to support appraisers, appraisal management companies, lenders, investors and government agencies. Collateral Analytics is reported within our Data and Analytics segment because it enhances our real estate solutions and automated valuation model offerings. On August 27, 2020, we completed the acquisition of DocVerify, a solution that provides proof of the integrity of digital documents, enabling organizations across a wide range of industries to streamline processes, safeguard sensitive information and reduce costs. DocVerify is reported within our Software Solutions segment and helps accelerate Black Knight’s goal of digitizing the entirety of the real estate and mortgage continuum as DocVerify’s trusted and proven digital document verification capabilities are integrated with Expedite Close, our digital closing platform. These acquisitions were not material individually or in the aggregate to our condensed consolidated financial statements. Total consideration, net of cash acquired, was $73.5 million in the aggregate for Collateral Analytics and DocVerify. The total consideration was as follows (in millions):
The following table summarizes the total purchase price consideration and the fair value amounts recognized for the assets acquired and liabilities assumed (in millions):
These estimates are preliminary and subject to adjustments as we complete our valuation process with respect to Computer software, Other intangible assets, Goodwill and contingent consideration. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, we recorded measurement period adjustments for Collateral Analytics. There was no material effect on earnings as a result of measurement period adjustments recorded. The Collateral Analytics purchase agreement requires us to pay additional cash consideration based on EBITDA over a three-year period beginning April 1, 2020. The DocVerify purchase agreement requires us to pay additional cash consideration based on revenues recognized over a two-year period beginning January 1, 2021. In accordance with ASC Topic 805, Business Combinations, we will recognize the majority of this consideration as compensation cost over the related period due to ongoing employment requirements. Refer to Note 11 — Fair Value Measurements for additional information. Estimated Useful Lives of Computer Software and Other Intangible Assets Acquired As of the acquisition dates, the preliminary gross carrying value and weighted average estimated useful lives of Computer software and Other intangible assets acquired consisted of the following (dollars in millions):

Investments in Unconsolidated Affiliates | Investments in Unconsolidated Affiliates DNB Investment In 2019, we invested an aggregate of $392.6 million in Star Parent, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership ("Star Parent"), related to its acquisition of The Dun & Bradstreet Corporation, a Delaware corporation ("D&B") and D&B's acquisition of Lattice Engines, Inc. D&B is a global leader in commercial data and analytics that provides various services helping companies improve their operational performance. In connection with this investment, we were issued certain limited partner interests in Star Parent, representing approximately 18.1% of the outstanding common equity of Star Parent. For the periods presented, our investment in Star Parent was an equity method investment. DNB IPO and Private Placement On July 6, 2020, Dun & Bradstreet Holdings, Inc. ("DNB"), previously a wholly-owned subsidiary of Star Parent, closed its previously announced initial public offering of 90.0 million shares of common stock, which included 11.7 million shares of common stock issued pursuant to the exercise by the underwriters of their option to purchase additional shares in full (the "DNB IPO"). The DNB IPO was priced at $22.00 per share, resulting in gross proceeds to DNB of $2.4 billion when combined with $400.0 million of aggregate proceeds from a concurrent private placement offering (the "DNB Private Placement") and before deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and other offering expenses payable by DNB. Shares of DNB common stock began trading on the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE") under the ticker symbol "DNB" on July 1, 2020. On July 6, 2020, we invested $100.0 million in the DNB Private Placement. In connection with the closing of the DNB IPO and the DNB Private Placement, our limited partner interests in Star Parent were exchanged for 54.8 million shares of DNB common stock (the "DNB Investment"), which represents ownership of 13.0% of DNB. As a result of the change in form of our investment, DNB is no longer considered a variable interest entity subsequent to the DNB IPO. As of September 30, 2020, we hold less than 20% of the outstanding common equity of DNB, but we continue to account for our investment under the equity method because we continue to have significant influence over DNB primarily through a combination of our investment, an agreement with certain other DNB investors pursuant to which we agreed to collectively vote together on matters related to the election of DNB directors for a period of three years following the DNB IPO and our shared Chief Executive Officer. As of September 30, 2020, DNB's closing share price was $25.66, and the fair value of our investment in DNB was $1,407.5 million before tax. The table below summarizes the carrying amount of our investment and our maximum exposure related to our variable interests in Star Parent as of December 31, 2019 (in millions):
Summarized consolidated financial information for DNB (Successor) and Star Parent (Predecessor) is presented below (in millions):
The summarized consolidated financial information as of December 31, 2019 for Star Parent was obtained from the audited consolidated financial statements of Star Parent as of December 31, 2019 that were filed with the SEC on March 25, 2020 as Exhibit 99.1 to our Form 10-K/A. The summarized consolidated financial information for DNB, following the DNB IPO, and Star Parent, prior to the DNB IPO, as of September 30, 2020, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 and for the period from February 8, 2019 to September 30, 2019 was derived from the most recently available unaudited consolidated financial information for each respective period and includes the effect of retrospective application of accounting standards adopted in the current year. During the three months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, we recorded equity in earnings related to our investment in DNB of $86.6 million, net of income tax expense of $29.3 million, and equity in losses related to our investment in Star Parent of $11.8 million, net of income tax benefit of $4.2 million, respectively. During the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and the period from February 8, 2019 to September 30, 2019, we recorded equity in earnings related to our investment in DNB of $61.2 million, net of income tax expense of $20.7 million, and equity in losses related to our investment in Star Parent of $37.8 million, net of income tax benefit of $13.3 million, respectively. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, Equity in earnings (losses) of unconsolidated affiliates, net of tax includes a non-cash gain of $88.2 million, net of income tax expense of $29.8 million as a result of the DNB IPO and concurrent DNB Private Placement. Other investment On May 15, 2020, we sold our interest in an equity method investment and recognized a gain of $5.0 million, net of tax, which is included in Equity in losses of unconsolidated affiliates, net of tax in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings and Comprehensive Earnings (Unaudited) for the nine months ended September 30, 2020. In connection with the sale, we received $8.4 million in cash at closing and recorded a long-term receivable of $1.8 million, which is included in Other non-current assets in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets (Unaudited). The original investment was not material to Black Knight.

Related Party Transactions [Abstract] | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Related Party Transactions | Related Party Transactions DNB As of February 8, 2019, along with its predecessor entities, DNB is considered to be a related party primarily due to the combination of our investment in DNB, our shared Chief Executive Officer and certain shared board members. On July 6, 2020, we invested an additional $100.0 million in connection with the DNB Private Placement. Refer to Note 3 — Investments in Unconsolidated Affiliates for additional details. As of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, we had a related party receivable of less than $0.1 million and $0.2 million, respectively, from DNB and its predecessors. FNF We are party to certain agreements with Fidelity National Financial, Inc. ("FNF"), including agreements that were entered into when we were related parties, to provide software, data and analytics services, as well as corporate shared services and information technology. We are also a party to certain other agreements under which we incur other expenses or receive revenues from FNF. As a result of our spin-off from FNF and its subsidiaries, FNF and Black Knight are separate independent companies. FNF no longer has an ownership interest in us, but was still considered a related party until December 1, 2019 due to the combination of certain shared board members, members of senior management and various agreements. As of December 1, 2019, the Chairman of our Board of Directors, who also serves as Chairman of FNF's Board of Directors, no longer serves as one of our executive officers, and FNF is no longer considered a related party. A summary of the revenues and expenses, net from FNF for the periods we were related parties is as follows (in millions):
A summary of related party items included in Revenues is as follows (in millions):
A summary of related party items included in Operating expenses (net of expense reimbursements) is as follows (in millions):
We believe the amounts earned from or charged by us under each of the foregoing arrangements are fair and reasonable. We believe our service arrangements are priced within the range of prices we offer to third parties, except for certain corporate services provided to FNF and certain corporate services provided by FNF, which are at cost. However, the amounts we earned or that were charged under certain arrangements were not negotiated at arm's length, and may not represent the terms that we might have obtained from an unrelated third party. Trasimene During the third quarter of 2020, we entered into a non-exclusive advisory services agreement with Trasimene Capital Management, LLC ("Trasimene") for services that may include evaluating, negotiating and closing various acquisition, financing and strategic corporate transactions. Transaction fees for services provided are primarily based on the size of the transaction and do not exceed market rates. Trasimene is considered a related party because the Chairman of our Board of Directors owns a controlling interest in Trasimene. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, we recognized $8.3 million in fees with Trasimene primarily related to our acquisition of Optimal Blue, which are included in Transition and integration costs in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings and Comprehensive Earnings (Unaudited).

Long-Term Debt | Long-Term Debt Long-term debt consists of the following (in millions):
As of September 30, 2020, principal maturities, including payments related to our finance leases, are as follows (in millions):
Credit Agreement On April 30, 2018, our indirect subsidiary, BKIS entered into an amended and restated credit and guaranty agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. as administrative agent, the guarantors party thereto, the other agents party thereto and the lenders party thereto. The Credit Agreement provides for (i) a $1,250.0 million term loan A facility (the “Term A Loan”) and (ii) a $750.0 million revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Credit Facility” and, together with the Term A Loan, collectively, the “Facilities”), the proceeds of which were used to repay in full the previous term loan A facility, term loan B facility and revolving credit facility. As of September 30, 2020, the interest rates on the Term A Loan and Revolving Credit Facility were based on the Eurodollar rate plus a margin of 125 basis points and were approximately 1.40% each. As of September 30, 2020, we had $612.0 million capacity on the Revolving Credit Facility and paid an unused commitment fee of 15 basis points. The Facilities are guaranteed by all of BKIS’s wholly-owned domestic restricted subsidiaries and Black Knight Financial Services, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and the direct parent company of BKIS, and are secured by associated collateral agreements that pledge a lien on substantially all of BKIS’s assets, including fixed assets and intangibles, and the assets of the guarantors, in each case, subject to customary exceptions. Senior Notes On August 26, 2020, BKIS completed the issuance and sale of $1.0 billion aggregate principal amount of 3.625% senior unsecured notes due 2028 (the "Senior Notes"). The Senior Notes have a coupon rate of 3.625% and mature on September 1, 2028. Interest is paid semi-annually in arrears on September 1 and March 1 of each year, commencing March 1, 2021. The obligations under the Senior Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed, jointly and severally, on an unsecured basis by the same guarantors that guarantee the Credit Agreement (collectively, the “Guarantors”). The Senior Notes are effectively subordinated to any obligations that are secured, including obligations under the Credit Agreement, to the extent of the value of the assets securing those obligations. The Senior Notes are structurally subordinated to all liabilities of BKIS' subsidiaries that do not guarantee the Senior Notes. The net proceeds of the offering, along with cash on hand and contributions from Cannae and THL, were used to partially finance the acquisition of Optimal Blue. The Senior Notes were issued pursuant to an indenture (the “Indenture”), dated as of August 26, 2020, between BKIS, the Guarantors and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as trustee. BKIS may redeem up to 40% of the Senior Notes using the proceeds of certain equity offerings completed before September 1, 2023 at a redemption price equal to 103.625% of their principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, up to, but not including the redemption date. In addition, at any time prior to September 1, 2023, BKIS may redeem some or all of the Senior Notes at a price equal to 100% of their principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, up to, but not including, the redemption date, plus the “make-whole” premium. Thereafter, BKIS may redeem the Senior Notes, in whole or in part, at the redemption prices set forth in the Indenture, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, up to, but not including, the redemption date. Upon the occurrence of certain events constituting a change of control, BKIS may be required to make an offer to repurchase the Senior Notes at a price equal to 101% of their principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, up to, but not including, the date of purchase. The Senior Notes are subject to customary covenants, including among others, customary events of default. Other Debt On April 1, 2018, we entered into a financing agreement for $32.9 million, with a stated interest rate of 0% and an imputed interest rate of 3.4%, primarily related to certain data processing and maintenance services. On December 31, 2019, we entered into an amendment to the financing agreement for an additional $16.3 million, with a stated interest rate of 0% and an imputed interest rate of 3.3%. Under the terms of the amendment, quarterly payments are due beginning January 2, 2020 through January 2, 2023. As of September 30, 2020, $9.4 million is included in the Current portion of debt and $6.3 million is included in Long-term debt, net of current portion in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets (Unaudited). Finance Leases On December 31, 2019, we entered into one-year finance lease agreements, with a stated interest rate of 0%, an imputed interest rate of 3.3% and bargain purchase options for certain computer equipment. The leased equipment has a useful life of five years and is depreciated on a straight-line basis. The finance lease liabilities of $4.8 million as of September 30, 2020 are included in the Current portion of debt on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets (Unaudited). For the nine months ended September 30, 2020, non-cash investing and financing activity was $4.8 million related to the unpaid portion of our finance lease agreements. Fair Value of Long-Term Debt The fair value of our Facilities approximates their carrying value at September 30, 2020. The fair value of our Facilities is based upon established market prices for the securities using Level 2 inputs. The fair value of our Senior Notes at September 30, 2020 was $1,013.9 million compared to its carrying value of $987.7 million. Interest Rate Swaps We enter into interest rate swap agreements to hedge forecasted monthly interest rate payments on our floating rate debt. As of September 30, 2020, we had the following interest rate swap agreements (collectively, the "Swap Agreements") (in millions):
Under the terms of the Swap Agreements, we receive payments based on the 1-month London Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR") (approximately 0.15% as of September 30, 2020). We entered into the Swap Agreements to convert a portion of the interest rate exposure on our floating rate debt from variable to fixed. We designated these Swap Agreements as cash flow hedges. A portion of the amount included in Accumulated other comprehensive loss is reclassified into Interest expense, net as a yield adjustment as interest is either paid or received on the hedged debt. The fair value of our Swap Agreements is based upon Level 2 inputs. We have considered our own credit risk and the credit risk of the counterparties when determining the fair value of our Swap Agreements. It is our policy to execute such instruments with creditworthy banks and not to enter into derivative financial instruments for speculative purposes. We believe our interest rate swap counterparties will be able to fulfill their obligations under our agreements, and we believe we will have debt outstanding through the various expiration dates of the swaps such that the occurrence of future cash flow hedges remains probable. The estimated fair values of our Swap Agreements are as follows (in millions):
A cumulative loss of $43.1 million ($32.2 million net of tax) and cumulative loss of $21.9 million ($16.4 million net of tax) is reflected in Accumulated other comprehensive loss as of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively. Below is a summary of the effect of derivative instruments on amounts recognized in Other comprehensive (loss) earnings ("OCE") on the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings and Comprehensive Earnings (Unaudited) (in millions):
Approximately $21.0 million ($15.7 million net of tax) of the balance in Accumulated other comprehensive loss as of September 30, 2020 is expected to be reclassified into Interest expense, net over the next 12 months.

Fair Value Measurements | Fair Value Measurements Fair Value of Financial Assets and Liabilities Fair value represents the amount that would be received from selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The fair values of financial assets and liabilities are determined using the following fair value hierarchy: •Level 1 inputs to the valuation methodology are unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that we have the ability to access. •Level 2 inputs to the valuation methodology include: ◦quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; ◦quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in inactive markets; ◦inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability; and ◦inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means. •Level 3 inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement. Assets are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. We believe our valuation methods are appropriate and consistent with other market participants. The use of different methodologies or assumptions to determine the fair value of certain financial instruments could result in a different fair value measurement at the reporting date. The following table presents our fair value hierarchy for those assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis (in millions):
The fair value of contingent consideration was primarily determined using a third-party valuation based on significant estimates and assumptions, including Level 3 inputs. The estimates and assumptions include the projected timing and amount of future cash flows and discount rates reflecting the rate inherent in the future cash flows. During three months ended September 30, 2020, an agreement related to the Compass Analytics, LLC contingent consideration payout was amended to a set contractual amount. As result, the related contingent consideration amount was transferred out of Level 3. The following table presents a summary of the change in fair value of our Level 3 fair value measurements (in millions):
As of September 30, 2020, the fair value of redeemable noncontrolling interests approximates its carrying amount due to the close proximity to the reporting date of the contributions received from Cannae and THL for their share of equity interests in Optimal Blue Holdco.

Income Taxes | Income TaxesOur effective tax rate for the three months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019 was 36.2% and 16.0%, respectively, and 23.1% and 20.5% for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Our effective tax rate for nine months ended September 30, 2020 differs from our statutory rate primarily due to a research and experimentation tax credit and the effect of excess tax benefits related to the vesting of restricted shares of our common stock, partially offset by the effect of the Optimal Blue acquisition and redeemable noncontrolling interests. Our effective tax rate for nine months ended September 30, 2019 differs from our statutory rate primarily due to the effect of research and experimentation tax credit, the effect of excess tax benefits related to the vesting of restricted shares of our common stock and a deferred tax revaluation adjustment as a result of a reduction in our blended state tax rate driven by a Florida tax rate change. A reconciliation of the federal statutory income rate to our effective income tax rate for each period presented is as follows:

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract] | |
Commitments and Contingencies | Commitments and Contingencies Legal and Regulatory Matters In the ordinary course of business, we are involved in various pending and threatened litigation and regulatory matters related to our operations, some of which include claims for punitive or exemplary damages. Our ordinary course litigation may include class action lawsuits, which make allegations related to various aspects of our business. From time to time, we also receive requests for information from various state and federal regulatory authorities, some of which take the form of civil investigative demands or subpoenas. Some of these regulatory inquiries may result in the assessment of fines for violations of regulations or settlements with such authorities requiring a variety of remedies. We believe that none of these actions depart from customary litigation or regulatory inquiries incidental to our business. We review lawsuits and other legal and regulatory matters (collectively "legal proceedings") on an ongoing basis when making accrual and disclosure decisions. When assessing reasonably possible and probable outcomes, management bases its decision on its assessment of the ultimate outcome assuming all appeals have been exhausted. For legal proceedings where it has been determined that a loss is both probable and reasonably estimable, a liability based on known facts and which represents our best estimate has been recorded. Actual losses may materially differ from the amounts recorded and the ultimate outcome of our pending cases is generally not yet determinable. While some of these matters could be material to our operating results or cash flows for any particular period if an unfavorable outcome results, at present we do not believe the ultimate resolution of currently pending legal proceedings, either individually or in the aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on our financial condition. PennyMac Litigation On November 5, 2019, Black Knight Servicing Technologies, LLC (“BKST”), a wholly-owned indirect subsidiary of Black Knight, filed a Complaint and Demand for Jury Trial (the “Black Knight Complaint”) against PennyMac Loan Services, LLC (“PennyMac”) in the Circuit Court for the Fourth Judicial Circuit in and for Duval County, Florida. The Black Knight Complaint includes causes of action for breach of contract and misappropriation of MSP® System trade secrets in order to develop an imitation mortgage processing system intended to replace the MSP® System. The Black Knight Complaint seeks damages for breach of contract and misappropriation of trade secrets, injunctive relief under the Florida Uniform Trade Secrets Act and declaratory judgment that BKST owns all intellectual property and software developed by or on behalf of PennyMac as a result of its wrongful use of and access to the MSP® System and related trade secret and confidential information. PennyMac filed a motion to compel arbitration of the action and the Court granted the motion on April 6, 2020. After the Court denied BKST's Motion for Reconsideration of the Court’s order compelling arbitration, BKST filed a Notice of Appeal with the Florida First District Court of Appeal on May 6, 2020. The appeal is fully briefed and oral argument is set for November 17, 2020. Shortly after the filing of the Black Knight Complaint, on November 6, 2019, PennyMac filed an Antitrust Complaint (the “PennyMac Complaint”) against Black Knight in the United States District Court for the Central District of California. The PennyMac Complaint included causes of action for alleged monopolization and attempted monopolization under Section 2 of the Sherman Antitrust Act, violation of California’s Cartwright Act, violation of California’s Unfair Competition Law and common law unfair competition under California law. The PennyMac Complaint sought equitable remedies, damages and other monetary relief, including treble and punitive damages. Generally, PennyMac alleged that Black Knight relies on various anticompetitive, unfair, and discriminatory practices to maintain and to enhance its dominance in the mortgage servicing platform market and in an attempt to monopolize the platform software applications market. Black Knight moved to dismiss the PennyMac Complaint or have the action transferred to Florida based upon a forum selection clause in the agreement with BKST. On February 13, 2020, the judge granted Black Knight's motion to transfer the case to Florida and denied as moot the motion to dismiss. On April 17, 2020, PennyMac filed a Notice of Dismissal of this action without prejudice and indicated that they intended to bring the claims raised in the dismissed PennyMac Complaint as defenses, third party claims and/or counterclaims in arbitration. On April 23, 2020, the Court entered an order dismissing the action without prejudice and directing that the clerk close the case. On April 28, 2020, PennyMac submitted this matter to the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") for arbitration. On May 27, 2020, Black Knight filed its Answering Statement with the AAA. The arbitrator was confirmed by the AAA on July 21, 2020. On October 21, 2020, PennyMac submitted an additional matter pertaining to a Black Knight Origination Technologies, LLC software audit request to the AAA for arbitration. The arbitrator set Black Knight's trade secret case for a 10-day final beginning hearing on October 24, 2022, and set PennyMac's antitrust case for a 5-day final hearing beginning on November 14, 2022. On June 26, 2020, Black Knight filed a Complaint against PennyMac in the United States District Court for the Middle District of Florida seeking a declaratory judgment that PennyMac waived its right to arbitrate federal antitrust and related state law claims against Black Knight because PennyMac previously filed and litigated those claims in a court of law (the “BKI Declaratory Action”). On July 22, 2020, PennyMac moved to dismiss the complaint in the BKI Declaratory Action, which Black Knight opposed. In response to a request from the Court in the BKI Declaratory Action, on August 20, 2020, BKI filed a Memorandum of Law in Support of the federal court's subject matter jurisdiction. Black Knight filed its motion for summary judgment on September 28, 2020 and PennyMac filed its opposition to the motion on October 27, 2020. As these cases continue to evolve, it is not possible to reasonably estimate the probability that we will ultimately prevail on our lawsuit or be held liable for the violations alleged in the PennyMac Complaint, nor is it possible to reasonably estimate the ultimate gain or loss, if any, or range of gain or loss that could result from these cases. Other Legal Matter During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, we recognized a one-time gain of $18.5 million related to the resolution of a legacy legal matter of Lender Processing Services, Inc. ("LPS") in Other income (expense), net in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings and Comprehensive Earnings (Unaudited). Indemnifications and Warranties We often agree to indemnify our clients against damages and costs resulting from claims of patent, copyright, trademark infringement or breaches of confidentiality associated with use of our software through software licensing agreements. Historically, we have not made any payments under such indemnifications, but continue to monitor the conditions that are subject to the indemnifications to identify whether a loss has occurred that is both probable and estimable that would require recognition. In addition, we warrant to clients that our software operates substantially in accordance with the software specifications. Historically, no costs have been incurred related to software warranties and none are expected in the future, and as such, no accruals for warranty costs have been made. Indemnification Agreement We are party to a cross-indemnity agreement dated December 22, 2014 with ServiceLink Holdings, LLC ("ServiceLink"). Pursuant to this agreement, ServiceLink indemnifies us from liabilities relating to, arising out of or resulting from the conduct of ServiceLink's business or any action, suit or proceeding in which we or any of our subsidiaries are named by reason of being a successor to the business of LPS and the cause of such action, suit or proceeding relates to the business of ServiceLink. In return, we indemnify ServiceLink for liabilities relating to, arising out of, or resulting from the conduct of our business.

Segment Information | Segment Information ASC Topic 280, Segment Reporting ("ASC 280") establishes standards for reporting information about segments and requires that a public business enterprise reports financial and descriptive information about its segments. Segments are components of an enterprise for which separate financial information is available and are evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. Our chief executive officer is identified as the CODM as defined by ASC 280. To align with the internal management of our business operations based on service offerings, our business is organized into two segments. Refer to Note 14 — Revenues for a description of our Software Solutions and Data and Analytics segments. Separate discrete financial information is available for these two segments, and the operating results of each segment are regularly evaluated by the CODM in order to assess performance and allocate resources. We use EBITDA as the primary profitability measure for making decisions regarding ongoing operations. EBITDA is earnings before Interest expense, net, Income tax expense and Depreciation and amortization. It also excludes Equity in earnings (losses) of unconsolidated affiliates. We do not allocate Interest expense, net, Other expense, net, Income tax expense, equity-based compensation and certain other items, such as purchase accounting adjustments and acquisition-related costs to the segments, since these items are not considered in evaluating the segments' overall operating performance. Segment asset information is not included below because we do not use it to evaluate performance or allocate resources. Summarized financial information concerning our segments is shown in the tables below (in millions):
_______________________________________________________ (1) Revenues for Corporate and Other represent deferred revenue purchase accounting adjustments recorded in accordance with GAAP. (2) Operating expenses for Corporate and Other includes equity-based compensation, including certain related payroll taxes, of $9.3 million and $14.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, and $30.5 million and $40.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. (3) Transition and integration costs primarily consists of costs associated with acquisitions and expense reduction initiatives. (4) Depreciation and amortization for Corporate and Other primarily represents net incremental depreciation and amortization adjustments associated with the application of purchase accounting recorded in accordance with GAAP. (5) Transition and integration costs primarily consists of costs associated with acquisitions.

Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] | |
Basis of Accounting | The accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) of Black Knight, Inc. and its subsidiaries ("Black Knight," the "Company," "we," "us" or "our") were prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), and all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. |
Consolidation | All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. |
Use of Estimates | The preparation of these Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited), as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates. |
Reportable Segments | Reporting Segments We conduct our operations through two reporting segments: (1) Software Solutions and (2) Data and Analytics. See further discussion in Note 16 — Segment Information.
|
Stock Repurchase Program | Share Repurchase Program On February 12, 2020, our Board of Directors approved a three-year share repurchase program authorizing us to repurchase up to 10.0 million shares of our outstanding common stock through February 12, 2023, through open market purchases, negotiated transactions or other means, in accordance with applicable securities laws and other restrictions. This share repurchase program replaces our previous share repurchase program that expired on February 2, 2020. There were no share repurchases during the nine months ended September 30, 2020.
|
Cash and Cash Equivalents | Cash and Cash Equivalents Highly liquid instruments purchased with original maturities of three months or less are considered cash equivalents. Cash equivalents are invested with high credit quality financial institutions and consist of short-term investments, such as demand deposit accounts, money market accounts, money market funds and time deposits. The carrying amounts of these instruments reported in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets (Unaudited) approximate their fair value because of their immediate or short-term maturities.
|
Trade Receivables, Net | Trade Receivables, Net The carrying amounts reported in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets (Unaudited) for Trade receivables, net approximate their fair value because of their short-term nature.
|
Allowance for Credit Losses | Allowance for Credit Losses We record our billed and unbilled trade receivables and contract assets at their amortized cost less an allowance for expected credit losses that are not expected to be recovered. We recognize an allowance for the remaining lifetime expected credit losses based on management’s expectation of collectability. We base our estimate on multiple factors including historical experience with bad debts, our relationship with our clients and their credit quality, the aging of respective asset balances, current macroeconomic conditions and management’s expectations of conditions in the future. Our allowance for expected credit losses is based on management’s assessment of the collectability of assets with similar risk characteristics. We pool our respective asset balances based on risk characteristics primarily related to financial asset type, extent of client relationship, product/solution, business division and delinquency status. Subsequent changes are recorded as an adjustment in Operating expenses. We write off trade receivables in the period when the likelihood of collection of a trade receivable balance is considered remote.
|
Investments in Unconsolidated Affiliates | Investments in Unconsolidated Affiliates We account for our investments in unconsolidated affiliates using the equity method of accounting when we determine we have significant influence over our investee. We record our share of equity-based compensation expense from equity method investments as an adjustment to our investment with a related adjustment to our equity.
|
Deferred Revenues | Deferred RevenuesDeferred revenues represent our obligations to transfer solutions or services to our clients for which we have received consideration, or an amount of consideration is due, from the client. |
Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests | Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests Redeemable noncontrolling interests represent the collective 40% equity interest owned by Cannae and THL in Optimal Blue Holdco. We have call rights on THL's and Cannae’s equity interests in Optimal Blue Holdco that are exercisable beginning September 15, 2023 at a call price equal to the greater of (i) the fair market value of such interests and (ii) an amount that would result in the multiple of THL’s or Cannae’s return on investment to equal 2.0, as applicable. In addition, THL and Cannae have the right to put their respective interests in Optimal Blue Holdco to (i) Optimal Blue Holdco if there is a change of control of Black Knight or (ii) Optimal Blue Holdco, BKT or Black Knight that are exercisable beginning September 15, 2023. We have the option to satisfy the purchase price, which shall be equal to the fair market value of such interest, in connection with the exercise of any put or call right either in cash or Black Knight common stock other than a put in connection with a change of control of Black Knight, in which case the purchase price is payable only in cash. The equity interests will be settled at the current fair value at the time we receive notice of the put election as determined by the parties or by a third party appraisal under the terms of OB Holdco LLC Agreement. As these redeemable noncontrolling interests provide for redemption features not solely within our control, they are presented on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets (Unaudited) outside of shareholders' equity. We recognize any changes in the redemption price related to these redeemable noncontrolling interests as they occur through Additional paid-in capital.
|
Equity-based Compensation | Equity-Based Compensation We expense employee equity-based payments in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 718, Compensation — Stock Compensation, which requires compensation cost measured using the grant date fair value of equity-based payments to be recognized over the requisite service period, which generally equals the vesting period. For awards with a performance condition, we recognize compensation cost under the graded vesting method over the requisite service period of the award, which at times results in accelerated recognition of the cost. We do not recognize compensation cost if the performance condition is not considered probable of achievement. If at any point we determine that the performance condition is improbable of achievement, we reverse any previously recognized compensation cost for that award. The fair value of our restricted stock awards is measured based on the closing market price of our stock on the grant date. Income tax effects of awards are recorded in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings and Comprehensive Earnings (Unaudited) when the awards vest or are settled. We account for forfeitures as they occur.

Transition and Integration Costs | Transition and Integration CostsTransition and integration costs for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019 primarily consisted of costs associated with acquisitions and expense reduction initiatives |
Recent Accounting Pronouncements | Recent Accounting Pronouncements Current Expected Credit Losses ("CECL") (ASC Topic 326, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses ("ASC 326")) In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses, as well as several other related updates, which were codified as ASC 326. This update changes how companies measure and recognize credit losses for many financial assets. The new standard requires companies to immediately recognize an estimate of credit losses expected to occur over the remaining life of the financial assets included in the scope of this standard. Our financial assets that are included in the scope of ASC 326 are primarily receivables and contract assets. We applied an integrated approach to analyzing the effects of adopting ASC 326, including developing accounting policies and positions, evaluating differences from applying the requirements of the new standard to our previous business practices and assessing the need for any changes in our processes and design of internal controls. The primary effect of adopting the new standard relates to the changes in our estimated credit losses and providing additional disclosures about our financial assets that are included in the scope of this new standard. Based on our assessment, we did not identify a material change in our financial condition, results of operation or business practices. We adopted ASC 326 on January 1, 2020 using a modified retrospective approach. The effect of adoption was an adjustment of $1.1 million, net of tax to opening Retained earnings on our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Equity (Unaudited). Other Accounting Pronouncements In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting. This update provides for optional financial reporting alternatives to reduce the cost and complexity associated with the accounting for contracts and hedging relationships affected by reference rate reform. The accommodations are effective for all entities through December 31, 2022. They may be applied from the beginning of the interim period that includes the issuance of this update. We do not expect the adoption of this update to have a material effect on our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) and related disclosures. In January 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-01, Investments—Equity Securities (Topic 321), Investments—Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323), and Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815). The amendments clarify that an entity should consider observable transactions that require it to either apply or discontinue the equity method of accounting for the purposes of applying the measurement alternative in accordance with Topic 321 immediately before applying or upon discontinuing the equity method. This update also clarifies certain interactions between the guidance to account for certain equity securities, equity method investments and the guidance in Topic 815, including measuring certain purchased options and forward contracts to acquire investments. This update is effective prospectively for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, with early adoption permitted. We do not expect the adoption of this update to have a material effect on our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) and related disclosures.
