SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Donnelley Financial Solutions, Inc. and subsidiaries (“DFIN” or the “Company”) has made forward-looking statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (the “Quarterly Report”) within the meaning of the “safe harbor” provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 that are subject to risks and uncertainties. These statements are based on the beliefs and assumptions of the Company. Generally, forward-looking statements include information concerning possible or assumed future actions, events, or results of operations of the Company. These statements may include words such as “anticipates,” “estimates,” “expects,” “projects,” “forecasts,” “intends,” “plans,” “continues,” “believes,” “may,” “will,” “goals” and variations of such words and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements.

Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance. These forward-looking statements are subject to a number of important factors, including those factors discussed in detail in Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 filed with the SEC on February 21, 2023 (the “Annual Report”), in addition to those discussed elsewhere in this Quarterly Report, that could cause the Company’s actual results to differ materially from those indicated in any such forward-looking statements. These factors include, but are not limited to:

•the volatility of the global economy and financial markets, and its impact on transactional volume;

•failure to offer high quality customer support and services;

•the retention of existing, and continued attraction of additional clients;

•the growth of new technologies with which the Company may be able to adequately compete;

•the Company’s inability to maintain client referrals;

•the competitive market for the Company’s products and industry fragmentation affecting prices;

•the ability to gain client acceptance of the Company’s new products and technologies;

•delay in market acceptance of the Company’s services and products due to undetected errors or failures found in its services and products;

•failure to maintain the confidentiality, integrity and availability of systems, software and solutions;

•failure to properly use and protect client and employee information and data;

•the effect of a material breach of security or other performance issues of any of the Company’s or its vendors’ systems;

•factors that affect client demand, including changes in economic conditions, national or international regulations and clients’ budgetary constraints;

•the Company’s ability to access debt and the capital markets due to adverse credit market conditions;

•the effect of increasing costs of providing healthcare and other benefits to employees;

•changes in the availability or costs of key materials (such as ink and paper);

•failure to protect the Company’s proprietary technology;

•ability to maintain the Company’s brands and reputation;

•the retention of existing, and continued attraction of, key employees, including management;

•funding obligations arising from multiemployer pension plans obligations of the Company’s former affiliates;

•the effects of operating in international markets, including fluctuations in currency exchange rates;

•the effect of economic and political conditions on a regional, national or international basis; and

•the adverse impacts of the pandemic resulting from COVID-19, and other global public health epidemics on the Company’s business and operations, including demand for DFIN services and products, and the Company’s ability to effectively manage the impacts of pandemics and epidemics on its business operations

Because forward-looking statements are subject to assumptions and uncertainties, actual results may differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Undue reliance should not be placed on such statements, which speak only as of the date of this document or the date of any document that may be incorporated by reference into this document.

Consequently, readers of the Quarterly Report should consider these forward-looking statements only as the Company’s current plans, estimates and beliefs. Except to the extent required by law, the Company does not undertake and specifically declines any obligation to publicly release the results of any revisions to these forward-looking statements that may be made to reflect future events or circumstances after the date of such statements or to reflect the occurrence of anticipated or unanticipated events. The Company undertakes no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements in this Quarterly Report to reflect any new events or any change in conditions or circumstances other than to the extent required by law.

Investments—The carrying value of the Company’s investments in equity securities was $5.5 million and $8.5 million at September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. The Company measures its equity securities that do not have a readily determinable fair value at cost minus impairment, if any, plus or minus changes resulting from observable price changes in orderly transactions for the identical or a similar investment of the same issuer. The Company performs an assessment on a quarterly basis to determine whether triggering events for impairment exist and to identify any observable price changes. During the three months ended September 30, 2023, there were no events or changes in circumstances that suggested an impairment or an observable price change. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company recorded an unrealized gain of $0.5 million resulting from an observable price change.

In March 2023, the Company sold an investment in an equity security. As a result of the sale, for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company received proceeds of $11.9 million, including $9.0 million of cash and common stock of the acquiror. In May 2023, the Company sold another investment in an equity security and received proceeds of $0.9 million in cash, which approximated its carrying value. The sales resulted in a net realized gain of $6.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, which is included in investment and other income, net, on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations within Corporate.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In October 2021, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2021-08, "Business Combinations (Topic 805): Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers," which requires that an entity recognize and measure contract assets and contract liabilities acquired in a business combination in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, as if it had originated the contracts, rather than at fair value. The standard is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2022. The Company adopted the standard prospectively on January 1, 2023. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the Company's Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Note 2. Revenue

Revenue Recognition

The Company manages highly-customized data and materials to enable filings with the SEC on behalf of its customers as well as performs eXtensible Business Reporting Language (“XBRL”) and other services. Clients are provided with EDGAR filing services, XBRL compliance services and translation, editing, interpreting, proof-reading and multilingual typesetting services, among other services. The Company provides software solutions to public and private companies, mutual funds and other regulated investment firms to serve their regulatory and compliance needs, including Venue, Arc Suite, ActiveDisclosure, among others, and provides digital document creation, online content management and print and distribution solutions.

Revenue is recognized upon transfer of control of promised services or products to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for those services or products. The Company’s services include software solutions and tech-enabled services whereas the Company’s products are comprised of print and distribution offerings. The Company’s arrangements with customers often include promises to transfer multiple services or products to a customer. Determining whether services and products are considered distinct performance obligations that should be accounted for separately requires significant judgment. Certain customer arrangements have multiple performance obligations as certain promises are both capable of being distinct and are distinct within the context of the contract. Other customer arrangements have a single performance obligation as the promise to transfer the individual goods or services is not separately identifiable from other promises in the contracts, and therefore is not distinct. Revenue for the Company’s tech-enabled services, software solutions and print and distribution offerings is recognized either over time or at a point in time, as further disclosed in the Annual Report.

Unbilled Receivables and Contract Balances

The timing of revenue recognition may differ from the timing of invoicing to customers and these timing differences result in contract assets, unbilled receivables or contract liabilities. Contract assets represent revenue recognized for performance obligations completed before an unconditional right to payment exists and therefore invoicing has not yet occurred. The Company generally estimates contract assets based on the historical selling price adjusted for its current experience and expected resolution of the variable consideration of the completed performance obligation. When the Company's contracts contain variable consideration, the variable consideration is recognized only to the extent that it is probable that a significant revenue reversal will not occur in a future period. As a result, the estimated revenue and contract assets may be constrained until the uncertainty associated with the variable consideration is resolved, which generally occurs in less than one year. Determining whether there will be a significant revenue reversal in the future and the determination of the amount of the constraint requires significant judgment.

Contract assets were $19.9 million and $20.1 million at September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. Generally, the contract assets balance is impacted by the recognition of additional revenue, amounts invoiced to customers and changes in the level of constraint applied to variable consideration. Amounts recognized as revenue exceeded the estimates for performance obligations satisfied in previous periods by approximately $6.5 million and $15.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and $20.2 million and $14.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, primarily due to changes in the Company’s estimate of variable consideration and the application of the constraint.

Unbilled receivables are recorded when there is an unconditional right to payment and invoicing has not yet occurred. The Company estimates the value of unbilled receivables based on a combination of historical customer selling price and management’s assessment of realizable selling price. Unbilled receivables were $36.0 million and $33.2 million at September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. Unbilled receivables and contract assets are included in receivables, less allowances for expected losses on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Most of the Company's contracts with significant remaining performance obligations have an initial expected duration of one year or less. As of September 30, 2023, the future estimated revenue related to unsatisfied or partially satisfied performance obligations under contracts with an original contractual term in excess of one year was approximately $140 million, of which approximately 48% is expected to be recognized as revenue over the succeeding twelve months, and the remainder recognized thereafter.

Credit Agreement—On May 27, 2021 (the “Restatement Effective Date”), the Company amended and restated its credit agreement dated as of September 30, 2016 (as in effect prior to such amendment and restatement, the “Credit Agreement,” and the Credit Agreement, as so amended and restated, the “Amended and Restated Credit Agreement”), by and among the Company, the lenders party thereto from time to time and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent and collateral agent, to, among other things, provide for a $200.0 million delayed-draw term loan A facility (the “Term Loan A Facility”) (bearing interest at a rate equal to the sum of the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) plus a margin ranging from 2.00% to 2.50% based upon the Company's Consolidated Net Leverage Ratio), extend the maturity of the $300.0 million revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Facility”) to May 27, 2026 and modify the financial maintenance and negative covenants in the Credit Agreement.

On May 11, 2023, the Company entered into the first amendment to the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement to change the reference rate from LIBOR, which ceased being published on June 30, 2023, to the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) for both the Term Loan A Facility and the Revolving Facility. The SOFR interest rate was effective for the Revolving Facility and the Term Loan A on May 30, 2023 and June 12, 2023, respectively. No other significant terms of the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement were amended. The Amended and Restated Credit Agreement contains a number of covenants, including a minimum Interest Coverage Ratio and the Consolidated Net Leverage Ratio, as defined in and calculated pursuant to the Credit Agreement, that, in part, restrict the Company’s ability to incur additional indebtedness, create liens, engage in mergers and consolidations, make restricted payments and dispose of certain assets. The Credit Agreement generally allows annual dividend payments of up to $20.0 million in the aggregate.

Term Loan A Facility—The unpaid principal amount of the Term Loan A Facility is due and payable in full on May 27, 2026. Voluntary prepayments of the Term Loan A Facility are permitted at any time without premium or penalty. The weighted-average interest rate on borrowings under the Term Loan A Facility was 6.8% and 3.0% for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The fair value of the Term Loan A Facility was $123.3 million and $121.6 million as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively, and was determined to be Level 2 under the fair value hierarchy.

Revolving Facility—As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, there were $41.5 million and $45.0 million, respectively, of borrowings outstanding under the Revolving Facility. The weighted average interest rate on borrowings under the Revolving Facility was 7.2% and 3.7% for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The fair value of the Company's borrowings under the Revolving Facility is classified as Level 2 under the fair value hierarchy and approximated its carrying value as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, as the Revolving Facility carries a variable rate of interest reflecting current market rates.

The following table summarizes interest expense, net included on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations:

Note 9. Earnings per Share

Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing net earnings by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. In computing diluted earnings per share, basic earnings per share is adjusted for the assumed issuance of all potentially dilutive share-based awards, including stock options, restricted stock units, performance share units and restricted stock.

The Company has authorized for issuance 65 million shares of $0.01 par value common stock and one million shares of $0.01 par value preferred stock. The Board may divide the preferred stock into one or more series and fix the redemption, dividend, voting, conversion, sinking fund, liquidation and other rights. The Company has no present plans to issue any preferred stock.

Common Stock Repurchases—On February 17, 2022, the Board authorized an increase to its previously approved stock repurchase program to bring the total remaining available repurchase authorization for shares on or after February 17, 2022 to $150 million and extended the expiration date of the repurchase program through December 31, 2023. On August 17, 2022, the Board authorized an increase to the stock repurchase program approved in February 2022 to bring the total remaining available repurchase authorization for shares on or after August 17, 2022 to $150 million. The expiration date of the repurchase program remains through December 31, 2023.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

As used in this management’s discussion and analysis, unless otherwise specified or the context otherwise requires, the “Company,” “DFIN,” “we,” “our,” and “us” refer to Donnelley Financial Solutions, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries. This discussion and analysis should be read together with the Company’s Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and the related notes thereto, as well as the Company’s audited Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended December 31, 2022.

Company Overview

DFIN is a leading global risk and compliance solutions company. The Company provides regulatory filing and deal solutions via its software, technology-enabled services and print and distribution solutions to public and private companies, mutual funds and other regulated investment firms, to serve its clients’ regulatory and compliance needs. DFIN helps its clients comply with applicable regulations where and how they want to work in a digital world, providing numerous solutions tailored to each client’s precise needs. The prevailing trend is toward clients choosing to utilize the Company’s software solutions, in conjunction with its tech-enabled services, to meet their document and filing needs, while at the same time shifting away from physical print and distribution of documents, except for cases where it is still regulatorily required or requested by investors.

The Company serves its clients’ regulatory and compliance needs throughout their respective life cycles. For its capital markets clients, the Company offers solutions that allow companies to comply with U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) regulations including filing agent services, where applicable, digital document creation and online content management tools that support their corporate financial transactions and regulatory/financial reporting; solutions to facilitate clients’ communications with their investors; and virtual data rooms and other deal management solutions. For investment companies, including mutual fund, insurance-investment and alternative investment companies, the Company provides solutions for creating, compiling and filing regulatory communications as well as solutions for investors designed to improve the access to and accuracy of their investment information.

Technological advancements, regulatory changes, and evolving workflow preferences have led to the Company’s clients managing more of the financial disclosure process themselves, changing the marketplace for the Company’s services and products. DFIN’s strategy in its Software Solutions segments (CM-SS and IC-SS, as defined below) aligns with the changing marketplace by focusing the Company’s investments and resources in its advanced software solutions, primarily ActiveDisclosure®, Arc Suite® software platform (“Arc Suite”) and Venue® Virtual Data Room (“Venue”), while making targeted investments, such as the Company’s acquisition of Guardum Holdings Limited in 2021, to further enhance product features. In its Compliance & Communications Management segments (CM-CCM and IC-CCM, as defined below), the Company’s strategy focuses on maintaining its market-leading position by offering a high-touch, service-oriented experience, using its unique combination of tech-enabled services and print and distribution capabilities.

Market Volatility/Cyclicality and Seasonality

The Company’s Capital Markets segments (CM-SS and CM-CCM), in particular, are subject to market volatility in the United States and world economies, as the success of the transactional and Venue offerings is largely dependent on the global market for initial public offerings (“IPOs”), secondary offerings, mergers and acquisitions (“M&A”), public and private debt offerings, leveraged buyouts, spinouts, special purpose acquisition company (“SPAC”) and de-SPAC transactions and other similar transactions. A variety of factors impact the global markets for transactions, including economic activity levels, interest rates, market volatility, the regulatory and political environment, geopolitical and civil unrest and global pandemics, among others. Due to the significant net sales and profitability derived from transactional and Venue offerings, market volatility can lead to uneven financial performance when comparing to previous periods. U.S. IPOs, M&A transactions and public debt offerings were also previously disrupted by U.S. federal government shutdowns, and any future government shutdowns could result in additional volatility. The Company mitigates a portion of this volatility through its compliance offerings, supporting the quarterly and annual public company reporting processes through its filing services and ActiveDisclosure, as well as its Investment Companies segments (IC-SS and IC-CCM) regulatory and stockholder communications offerings, including Arc Suite. The Company also mitigates some of the risk by offering services in higher demand during a down market, such as document management tools for the bankruptcy/restructuring process and by moving upstream in the filing process with products like Venue.

24

The quarterly/annual public company reporting process work subjects the Company to filing seasonality which peaks shortly after the end of each fiscal quarter. Additionally, investment companies clients require the Company to manage the financial and regulatory reporting and filing for mutual funds on a semi-annual basis as well as annual prospectus filings, which peaks during the second fiscal quarter. The seasonality and associated operational implications include the need to increase staff during peak periods through a combined strategy of hiring temporary personnel, increasing the premium time of existing staff and outsourcing production for a number of services. Additionally, clients and their financial advisors have begun to increasingly rely on web-based services which allow clients to autonomously file and distribute compliance documents with regulatory agencies, such as the SEC. While the Company believes that its ActiveDisclosure and Arc Suite solutions are competitive in this space, competitors are also continuing to develop technologies that aim to improve clients’ ability to autonomously produce and file documents to meet their regulatory obligations. The Company remains focused on driving annual recurring revenue to mitigate market volatility.

Services and Products

The Company separately reports its net sales and related cost of sales for its software solutions, tech-enabled services and print and distribution offerings. The Company’s software solutions consist of Venue, ActiveDisclosure, eBrevia and Arc Suite, among others. The Company’s tech-enabled services offerings consist of document composition, compliance-related SEC Electronic Data Gathering, Analysis, and Retrieval (“EDGAR”) filing services and transaction solutions. The Company’s print and distribution offerings primarily consist of conventional and digital printed products and related shipping.

Government Regulations and Regulatory Impact

The SEC is adopting new as well as amending existing rules and forms to modernize the reporting and disclosure of information under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) and the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”). These actions, primarily within the Investment Companies business, are driving significant regulatory changes which impact the Company’s customers, and have enabled the Company to accelerate its transition from print and distribution to software solutions.

On October 26, 2022, the SEC announced that it adopted the Tailored Shareholder Reports (“TSR”) for Mutual Funds and Exchange-Traded Funds rule which requires certain investment companies to complete a new concise and visually engaging annual and semi-annual TSR that highlights key information that is particularly important for retail investors to assess and monitor their investments. The TSR, which can be printed and mailed or delivered electronically upon request of the investor, replaces Rule 30e-3 for open-ended funds and ETFs registered under Form N-1A and will require iXBRL tagging. While the rule was effective January 24, 2023, due to an 18-month transition period, compliance is not required until July 24, 2024. As a result, the Company is expecting an increase in revenue from Arc Suite software and related regulatory filings beginning in the second half of 2024.

Segments

The Company’s four operating and reportable segments are: Capital Markets – Software Solutions (“CM-SS”), Capital Markets – Compliance and Communications Management (“CM-CCM”), Investment Companies – Software Solutions (“IC-SS”) and Investment Companies – Compliance and Communications Management (“IC-CCM”). Corporate is not an operating segment and consists primarily of unallocated selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) activities and associated expenses including, in part, executive, legal, finance and certain facility costs. In addition, certain costs and earnings of employee benefits plans, such as pension and other postretirement benefits plans expense (income) as well as share-based compensation expense, are included in Corporate and not allocated to the operating segments.

Capital Markets

The Company provides software solutions, tech-enabled services and print and distribution solutions to public and private companies for deal solutions and compliance to companies that are, or are preparing to become, subject to the filing and reporting requirements of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act. The Company’s operating segments associated with its capital markets services and products offerings are as follows:

Capital Markets – Software Solutions—The CM-SS segment provides Venue, ActiveDisclosure, eBrevia and other solutions to public and private companies to help manage public and private transactional and compliance processes; extract data and analyze contracts; collaborate; and tag, validate and file SEC documents.

25

Capital Markets – Compliance & Communications Management—The CM-CCM segment provides tech-enabled services and print and distribution solutions to public and private companies for deal solutions and SEC compliance requirements. The Company's private conference facilities offer around-the-clock services to support the transaction process, production platform and service delivery model for a fully-virtual experience while replicating the in-person experience. The Company has seen clients utilizing the range of options available to them, including a hybrid approach with working group members working both virtually and in-person during drafting sessions for their transactions. While the Company has significantly reduced its private conferencing footprint, the service helps clients maintain confidentiality in deal negotiations and provides clients a place to host in-person working groups to meet, strategize and prepare documents for transactions.

Investment Companies

The Company provides software solutions, tech-enabled services and print, distribution and fulfillment solutions to its investment companies clients that are subject to the filing and reporting requirements of the Investment Company Act, primarily mutual fund companies, alternative investment companies, insurance companies and third-party fund administrators. The Company’s operating segments associated with its investment companies services and products offerings are as follows:

Investment Companies – Software Solutions—The IC-SS segment provides clients with the Arc Suite platform that contains a comprehensive suite of cloud-based solutions, including ArcDigital, ArcReporting, ArcPro and ArcRegulatory as well as services that enable storage and management of compliance and regulatory information in a self-service, central repository so that documents can be easily accessed, assembled, edited, tagged, translated, rendered and submitted to regulators and investors.

Investment Companies – Compliance & Communications Management—The IC-CCM segment provides clients with tech-enabled solutions for creating, filing and distributing regulatory communications and solutions for investor communications, as well as XBRL-formatted filings pursuant to the Investment Company Act, through the SEC's EDGAR system. The IC-CCM segment also provides turnkey proxy services, including discovery, planning and implementation, print and mail management, solicitation, tabulation services, stockholder meeting review and expert support.

Executive Overview

Third Quarter Overview

Net sales for three months ended September 30, 2023 decreased by $8.7 million, or 4.6%, to $180.0 million from $188.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022, including a $1.5 million, or 0.8%, decrease due to the disposition of the EdgarOnline (“EOL”) business and a $0.7 million, or 0.4%, increase due to changes in foreign currency exchange rates.

Financial Review

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) requires the extensive use of management’s estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as well as disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from these estimates. The Company’s significant accounting policies and critical estimates are disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, as filed with the SEC on February 21, 2023 (the “Annual Report”).

In the financial review that follows, the Company discusses its unaudited condensed consolidated results of operations, cash flows and certain other information. This discussion should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and the related notes thereto.

Non-GAAP Measures

The Company believes that certain non-GAAP measures, such as non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA (“Adjusted EBITDA”), provide useful information about the Company’s operating results and enhance the overall ability to assess the Company’s financial performance. The Company uses these measures, together with other measures of performance prepared in accordance with GAAP, to compare the relative performance of operations in planning, budgeting and reviewing the performance of its business. Adjusted EBITDA allows investors to make a more meaningful comparison between the Company’s core business operating results over different periods of time. The Company believes that Adjusted EBITDA, when viewed with the Company’s results under GAAP and the accompanying reconciliations, provides useful information about the Company’s business without regard to potential distortions. By eliminating potential differences in results of operations between periods caused by factors such as historic cost and age of assets, restructuring, impairment and other charges, net, non-income tax, net, gain on investments in equity securities as well as other items, as described below, the Company believes that Adjusted EBITDA can provide a useful additional basis for comparing the current performance of the underlying operations being evaluated.

Adjusted EBITDA is not presented in accordance with GAAP and has important limitations as an analytical tool. These measures should not be considered as a substitute for analysis of the Company’s results as reported under GAAP. In addition, these measures are defined differently by different companies and, accordingly, such measures may not be comparable to similarly-titled measures of other companies. In addition to the factors listed above, share-based compensation expense is excluded from Adjusted EBITDA. Although share-based compensation is a key incentive offered to certain of the Company’s employees, business performance is evaluated excluding share-based compensation expense. Depending upon the size, timing and the terms of grants, share-based compensation expense may vary but will recur in future periods.

A reconciliation of net earnings to Adjusted EBITDA for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 is presented in the following table:

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company believes it has sufficient liquidity to support its ongoing operations and to invest in future growth to create value for its investors. Cash on hand, operating cash flows and the Company’s Revolving Facility are the primary sources of liquidity and are expected to be used for, among other things, payment of interest and principal on the Company’s debt obligations, capital expenditures necessary to support productivity improvement and growth and completion of restructuring programs.

The Company maintains cash pooling structures that enable participating international locations to draw on the pools’ cash resources to meet local liquidity needs. Foreign cash balances may be loaned from certain cash pools to U.S. operating entities on a temporary basis in order to reduce the Company’s short-term borrowing costs or for other purposes. The Company has the ability to repatriate foreign cash, associated with foreign earnings previously subjected to U.S. tax, with minimal additional tax consequences. The Company maintains its assertion of indefinite reinvestment on all foreign earnings and other outside basis differences to indicate that the Company remains indefinitely reinvested in operations outside of the U.S., with the exception of the previously taxed foreign earnings already subject to U.S. tax. The Company did not repatriate excess cash at its foreign subsidiaries to the U.S. during the year ended December 31, 2022 or during the nine months ended September 30, 2023. The Company is evaluating whether to make any cash repatriations in the future.

On August 16, 2022, President Biden signed the Inflation Reduction Act (“IRA”) into law, which included enactment of a 15% corporate minimum tax effective in 2023 and imposes a 1% excise tax on share repurchases that occur after December 31, 2022. The Company currently does not expect the IRA to have a material impact on its Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Cash and cash equivalents were $11.7 million at September 30, 2023, which included $4.6 million in the U.S. and $7.1 million at international locations.

The following describes the Company’s cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022:

	Nine Months Ended September 30,
	2023			2022
	(in millions)
Net cash provided by operating activities	$	49.2		$	76.9

Net decrease in cash and cash equivalents	$	(22.5	)	$	(43.7	)

Cash Flows Provided by Operating Activities

Operating cash inflows and outflows are largely attributable to sales of the Company’s services and products as well as recurring expenditures for labor, rent and other operating activities.

Net cash provided by operating activities was $49.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 compared to $76.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The decrease in cash provided by operating activities was primarily due to a decrease in net earnings, an unfavorable change in accounts payable, an unfavorable change in accounts receivable and an increase in interest paid, partially offset by lower incentive compensation and commissions payments. Accounts payable decreased operating cash flows by $13.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, as compared to increasing operating cash flows by $4.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, primarily due to timing of supplier payments. Accounts receivables decreased operating cash flows by $37.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, as compared to a decrease of $20.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, primarily due to timing of collections. The Company's interest payments increased from $4.9 million to $12.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, primarily due to higher interest rates and higher average borrowings on the Revolving Facility (as defined below). These decreases in cash provided were partially offset by accrued liabilities and other, which decreased operating cash flows by $22.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, as compared to a decrease of $44.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, primarily due to lower incentive compensation payments in 2023 as a result of the Company's 2022 operating results and lower commissions payments in 2023 as a result of lower sales volumes.

Cash Flows Used in Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities was $33.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, which consisted of $43.0 million of capital expenditures, substantially all related to investments in software development, partially offset by $9.9 million of proceeds from sales of investments in equity securities. The Company expects that capital expenditures for the year ended December 31, 2023 will be approximately $60 million.

Net cash used in investing activities was $39.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, which consisted of capital expenditures, mostly driven by investments in software development.

Cash Flows Used in Financing Activities

Net cash used in financing activities was $38.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023. During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company made payments of $221.5 million on the Revolving Facility borrowings, partially offset by $218.0 million of proceeds from the Revolving Facility borrowings. The Company's common stock repurchases for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 totaled $35.4 million, which included $18.0 million of repurchases under the stock repurchase program and $17.4 million associated with vesting of the Company employee's equity awards.

Net cash used in financing activities was $83.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company received $270.0 million of proceeds from the Revolving Facility borrowings, offset by $202.5 million of payments on the Revolving Facility borrowings. The Company’s common stock repurchases for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 totaled $150.0 million, which included $137.9 million of repurchases under the stock repurchase program and $12.1 million associated with vesting of the Company employees' equity awards.

Debt

The Company’s debt as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 consisted of the following (in millions):

	September 30, 2023			December 31, 2022
Term Loan A Facility	$	125.0		$	125.0
Borrowings under the Revolving Facility		41.5			45.0
Unamortized debt issuance costs		(0.6	)		(0.8	)
Total long-term debt	$	165.9		$	169.2

Credit Agreement—On May 27, 2021 (the “Restatement Effective Date”), the Company amended and restated its credit agreement dated as of September 30, 2016 (as in effect prior to such amendment and restatement, the “Credit Agreement,” and the Credit Agreement, as so amended and restated, the “Amended and Restated Credit Agreement”), by and among the Company, the lenders party thereto from time to time and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent and collateral agent, to, among other things, provide for a $200.0 million delayed-draw term loan A facility (the “Term Loan A Facility”) (bearing interest at a rate equal to the sum of the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) plus a margin ranging from 2.00% to 2.50% based upon the Company's Consolidated Net Leverage Ratio), extend the maturity of the $300.0 million revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Facility”) to May 27, 2026 and modify the financial maintenance and negative covenants in the Credit Agreement.

On May 11, 2023, the Company entered into the first amendment to the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement to change the reference rate from LIBOR, which ceased being published on June 30, 2023, to the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) for both the Term Loan A Facility and the Revolving Facility. The SOFR interest rate was effective for the Revolving Facility and the Term Loan A on May 30, 2023 and June 12, 2023, respectively. No other significant terms of the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement were amended. The Amended and Restated Credit Agreement contains a number of covenants, including a minimum Interest Coverage Ratio and the Consolidated Net Leverage Ratio, as defined in and calculated pursuant to the Credit Agreement, that, in part, restrict the Company’s ability to incur additional indebtedness, create liens, engage in mergers and consolidations, make restricted payments and dispose of certain assets. The Credit Agreement generally allows annual dividend payments of up to $20.0 million in the aggregate, though additional dividends may be allowed subject to certain conditions. Each of these covenants is subject to important exceptions and qualifications. The unpaid principal amount of the Term Loan A Facility is due and payable in full on May 27, 2026. Voluntary prepayments of the Term Loan A Facility are permitted at any time without premium or penalty.

As of September 30, 2023, there were $41.5 million of borrowings outstanding under the Revolving Facility as well as $2.5 million in outstanding letters of credit and bank guarantees, of which $1.0 million of the outstanding letters of credit reduced the availability under the Revolving Facility. Based on the Company’s results of operations for the twelve months ended September 30, 2023 and existing debt, the Company would have had the ability to utilize the remaining $257.5 million of the Revolving Facility and not have been in violation of the terms of the agreement.

The current availability under the Revolving Facility and net available liquidity as of September 30, 2023 are shown in the table below:

	September 30, 2023
Availability	(in millions)
Revolving Facility	$	300.0
Availability reduction from covenants		—
	$	300.0
Usage
Borrowings under the Revolving Facility	$	41.5
Impact on availability related to outstanding letters of credit		1.0
	$	42.5
Current availability at September 30, 2023	$	257.5
Cash and cash equivalents		11.7
Net Available Liquidity	$	269.2

The Company was in compliance with its debt covenants as of September 30, 2023, and expects to remain in compliance based on management’s estimates of operating and financial results for fiscal year 2023 and the foreseeable future. However, declines in market and economic conditions or demand for certain of the Company’s services and products could impact the Company’s ability to remain in compliance with its debt covenants in future periods.

The failure of a financial institution supporting the Revolving Facility would reduce the size of the Company’s committed facility unless a replacement institution was added. As of September 30, 2023, the Revolving Facility is supported by fifteen U.S. and international financial institutions.

As of September 30, 2023, the Company met all the conditions required to borrow under the Revolving Facility, and management expects the Company to continue to meet the applicable borrowing conditions.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of DFIN and all majority-owned subsidiaries and have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and in accordance with the rules and regulations of the SEC. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. The financial data presented herein should be read in conjunction with the audited Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying notes included in the Company's latest Annual Report. In the opinion of management, the financial data presented includes all adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented. Results of interim periods should not be considered indicative of the results for the full year.

Significant Accounting Policies

Use of Estimates—The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires the extensive use of management’s estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as well as disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from these estimates. The Company’s significant accounting policies and critical accounting estimates are disclosed in the Annual Report.

Allowances for Expected Losses—Transactions affecting the current expected credit loss (“CECL”) reserve during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 were as follows:

	September 30,
	2023			2022
Balance, beginning of year (a)	$	17.1		$	12.7
Provisions charged to expense		10.8			6.2
Write-offs, reclassifications and other		(8.6	)		(1.4	)
Balance, end of period (a)	$	19.3		$	17.5

(a)As of September 30, 2023, the CECL reserve balance is comprised of a $18.7 million provision for accounts receivable and a $0.6 million provision for unbilled receivables and contract assets. As of December 31, 2022, the CECL reserve balance was comprised of a $16.5 million provision for accounts receivable and a $0.6 million provision for unbilled receivables and contract assets.

Assets Held for Sale—As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company had land held for sale with a carrying value of $2.6 million. On August 30, 2022, the Company entered into an agreement to sell the land for $13.0 million. The closing of this transaction is subject to the buyer obtaining necessary entitlements and customary closing conditions and there is no assurance that the sale will be completed.

Property, Plant and Equipment, net—The components of the Company’s property, plant and equipment, net at September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 were as follows:

	September 30, 2023			December 31, 2022
Land	$	0.3		$	0.3
Buildings		19.9			20.2
Machinery and equipment		68.1			66.8
		88.3			87.3
Less: Accumulated depreciation		(73.5	)		(69.7	)
Total	$	14.8		$	17.6

Depreciation expense was $2.0 million and $1.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and $5.8 million and $4.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

Software, net—Capitalized software development costs are amortized over their estimated useful life using the straight-line method, up to a maximum of three years. Amortization expense related to internally-developed software, excluding amortization expense related to other intangible assets, was $11.4 million and $9.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and $33.2 million and $28.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

Investments—The carrying value of the Company’s investments in equity securities was $5.5 million and $8.5 million at September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. The Company measures its equity securities that do not have a readily determinable fair value at cost minus impairment, if any, plus or minus changes resulting from observable price changes in orderly transactions for the identical or a similar investment of the same issuer. The Company performs an assessment on a quarterly basis to determine whether triggering events for impairment exist and to identify any observable price changes. During the three months ended September 30, 2023, there were no events or changes in circumstances that suggested an impairment or an observable price change. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company recorded an unrealized gain of $0.5 million resulting from an observable price change.

In March 2023, the Company sold an investment in an equity security. As a result of the sale, for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company received proceeds of $11.9 million, including $9.0 million of cash and common stock of the acquiror. In May 2023, the Company sold another investment in an equity security and received proceeds of $0.9 million in cash, which approximated its carrying value. The sales resulted in a net realized gain of $6.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, which is included in investment and other income, net, on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations within Corporate.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In October 2021, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2021-08, "Business Combinations (Topic 805): Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers," which requires that an entity recognize and measure contract assets and contract liabilities acquired in a business combination in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, as if it had originated the contracts, rather than at fair value. The standard is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2022. The Company adopted the standard prospectively on January 1, 2023. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the Company's Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Note 2. Revenue

Revenue Recognition

The Company manages highly-customized data and materials to enable filings with the SEC on behalf of its customers as well as performs eXtensible Business Reporting Language (“XBRL”) and other services. Clients are provided with EDGAR filing services, XBRL compliance services and translation, editing, interpreting, proof-reading and multilingual typesetting services, among other services. The Company provides software solutions to public and private companies, mutual funds and other regulated investment firms to serve their regulatory and compliance needs, including Venue, Arc Suite, ActiveDisclosure, among others, and provides digital document creation, online content management and print and distribution solutions.

Revenue is recognized upon transfer of control of promised services or products to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for those services or products. The Company’s services include software solutions and tech-enabled services whereas the Company’s products are comprised of print and distribution offerings. The Company’s arrangements with customers often include promises to transfer multiple services or products to a customer. Determining whether services and products are considered distinct performance obligations that should be accounted for separately requires significant judgment. Certain customer arrangements have multiple performance obligations as certain promises are both capable of being distinct and are distinct within the context of the contract. Other customer arrangements have a single performance obligation as the promise to transfer the individual goods or services is not separately identifiable from other promises in the contracts, and therefore is not distinct. Revenue for the Company’s tech-enabled services, software solutions and print and distribution offerings is recognized either over time or at a point in time, as further disclosed in the Annual Report.

Unbilled Receivables and Contract Balances

The timing of revenue recognition may differ from the timing of invoicing to customers and these timing differences result in contract assets, unbilled receivables or contract liabilities. Contract assets represent revenue recognized for performance obligations completed before an unconditional right to payment exists and therefore invoicing has not yet occurred. The Company generally estimates contract assets based on the historical selling price adjusted for its current experience and expected resolution of the variable consideration of the completed performance obligation. When the Company's contracts contain variable consideration, the variable consideration is recognized only to the extent that it is probable that a significant revenue reversal will not occur in a future period. As a result, the estimated revenue and contract assets may be constrained until the uncertainty associated with the variable consideration is resolved, which generally occurs in less than one year. Determining whether there will be a significant revenue reversal in the future and the determination of the amount of the constraint requires significant judgment.

Contract assets were $19.9 million and $20.1 million at September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. Generally, the contract assets balance is impacted by the recognition of additional revenue, amounts invoiced to customers and changes in the level of constraint applied to variable consideration. Amounts recognized as revenue exceeded the estimates for performance obligations satisfied in previous periods by approximately $6.5 million and $15.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and $20.2 million and $14.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, primarily due to changes in the Company’s estimate of variable consideration and the application of the constraint.

Unbilled receivables are recorded when there is an unconditional right to payment and invoicing has not yet occurred. The Company estimates the value of unbilled receivables based on a combination of historical customer selling price and management’s assessment of realizable selling price. Unbilled receivables were $36.0 million and $33.2 million at September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. Unbilled receivables and contract assets are included in receivables, less allowances for expected losses on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Most of the Company's contracts with significant remaining performance obligations have an initial expected duration of one year or less. As of September 30, 2023, the future estimated revenue related to unsatisfied or partially satisfied performance obligations under contracts with an original contractual term in excess of one year was approximately $140 million, of which approximately 48% is expected to be recognized as revenue over the succeeding twelve months, and the remainder recognized thereafter.

Contract liabilities consist of deferred revenue and progress billings, which are included in accrued liabilities on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company recognized $6.3 million and $5.3 million of revenue during the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, that was included in the deferred revenue balances at the beginning of the respective periods. The Company recognized $38.0 million and $31.4 million of revenue during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, that was included in the deferred revenue balances at the beginning of the respective periods. Changes in contract liabilities were as follows:

	September 30,
	2023			2022
Balance, beginning of year	$	46.1		$	36.0
Deferral of revenue		121.3			119.2

Litigation

From time to time, the Company’s customers and other counterparties file voluntary petitions for reorganization under United States bankruptcy laws. In such cases, certain pre-petition payments received by the Company from these parties could be considered preference items and subject to return. In addition, the Company may be party to certain litigation arising in the ordinary course of business. Management believes that the final resolution of these preference items and litigation will not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

Note 8. Debt

The Company’s debt as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 consisted of the following:

	September 30, 2023			December 31, 2022
Term Loan A Facility	$	125.0		$	125.0

Unamortized debt issuance costs		(0.6	)		(0.8	)
Total long-term debt	$	165.9		$	169.2

Credit Agreement—On May 27, 2021 (the “Restatement Effective Date”), the Company amended and restated its credit agreement dated as of September 30, 2016 (as in effect prior to such amendment and restatement, the “Credit Agreement,” and the Credit Agreement, as so amended and restated, the “Amended and Restated Credit Agreement”), by and among the Company, the lenders party thereto from time to time and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent and collateral agent, to, among other things, provide for a $200.0 million delayed-draw term loan A facility (the “Term Loan A Facility”) (bearing interest at a rate equal to the sum of the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) plus a margin ranging from 2.00% to 2.50% based upon the Company's Consolidated Net Leverage Ratio), extend the maturity of the $300.0 million revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Facility”) to May 27, 2026 and modify the financial maintenance and negative covenants in the Credit Agreement.

On May 11, 2023, the Company entered into the first amendment to the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement to change the reference rate from LIBOR, which ceased being published on June 30, 2023, to the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) for both the Term Loan A Facility and the Revolving Facility. The SOFR interest rate was effective for the Revolving Facility and the Term Loan A on May 30, 2023 and June 12, 2023, respectively. No other significant terms of the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement were amended. The Amended and Restated Credit Agreement contains a number of covenants, including a minimum Interest Coverage Ratio and the Consolidated Net Leverage Ratio, as defined in and calculated pursuant to the Credit Agreement, that, in part, restrict the Company’s ability to incur additional indebtedness, create liens, engage in mergers and consolidations, make restricted payments and dispose of certain assets. The Credit Agreement generally allows annual dividend payments of up to $20.0 million in the aggregate.

Term Loan A Facility—The unpaid principal amount of the Term Loan A Facility is due and payable in full on May 27, 2026. Voluntary prepayments of the Term Loan A Facility are permitted at any time without premium or penalty. The weighted-average interest rate on borrowings under the Term Loan A Facility was 6.8% and 3.0% for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The fair value of the Term Loan A Facility was $123.3 million and $121.6 million as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively, and was determined to be Level 2 under the fair value hierarchy.

Revolving Facility—As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, there were $41.5 million and $45.0 million, respectively, of borrowings outstanding under the Revolving Facility. The weighted average interest rate on borrowings under the Revolving Facility was 7.2% and 3.7% for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The fair value of the Company's borrowings under the Revolving Facility is classified as Level 2 under the fair value hierarchy and approximated its carrying value as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, as the Revolving Facility carries a variable rate of interest reflecting current market rates.

The following table summarizes interest expense, net included on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations:

Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. The financial data presented herein should be read in conjunction with the audited Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying notes included in the Company's latest Annual Report. In the opinion of management, the financial data presented includes all adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented. Results of interim periods should not be considered indicative of the results for the full year.

Use of Estimates

Use of Estimates—The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires the extensive use of management’s estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as well as disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from these estimates. The Company’s significant accounting policies and critical accounting estimates are disclosed in the Annual Report.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In October 2021, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2021-08, "Business Combinations (Topic 805): Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers," which requires that an entity recognize and measure contract assets and contract liabilities acquired in a business combination in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, as if it had originated the contracts, rather than at fair value. The standard is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2022. The Company adopted the standard prospectively on January 1, 2023.

Determining whether services and products are considered distinct performance obligations that should be accounted for separately requires significant judgment. Certain customer arrangements have multiple performance obligations as certain promises are both capable of being distinct and are distinct within the context of the contract. Other customer arrangements have a single performance obligation as the promise to transfer the individual goods or services is not separately identifiable from other promises in the contracts, and therefore is not distinct. Revenue for the Company’s tech-enabled services, software solutions and print and distribution offerings is recognized either over time or at a point in time, as further disclosed in the Annual Report.

The timing of revenue recognition may differ from the timing of invoicing to customers and these timing differences result in contract assets, unbilled receivables or contract liabilities. Contract assets represent revenue recognized for performance obligations completed before an unconditional right to payment exists and therefore invoicing has not yet occurred. The Company generally estimates contract assets based on the historical selling price adjusted for its current experience and expected resolution of the variable consideration of the completed performance obligation. When the Company's contracts contain variable consideration, the variable consideration is recognized only to the extent that it is probable that a significant revenue reversal will not occur in a future period. As a result, the estimated revenue and contract assets may be constrained until the uncertainty associated with the variable consideration is resolved, which generally occurs in less than one year. Determining whether there will be a significant revenue reversal in the future and the determination of the amount of the constraint requires significant judgment.

Unbilled receivables are recorded when there is an unconditional right to payment and invoicing has not yet occurred. The Company estimates the value of unbilled receivables based on a combination of historical customer selling price and management’s assessment of realizable selling price.

Lessee Leases Policy

The Company has operating leases for certain service centers, office space and equipment as well as finance leases primarily related to certain IT equipment.

Restructuring

The Company records restructuring charges associated with management-approved restructuring plans, which could include the elimination of job functions, closure or relocation of facilities, reorganization of operations, changes in management structure, workforce reductions or other actions. Restructuring charges may include ongoing and enhanced termination benefits related to employee separations, contract termination costs and other related costs associated with exit or disposal activities. Restructuring charges for employee terminations include management's estimate as to the timing and amount of severance and actual results could differ from estimates.

Earnings per Share

Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing net earnings by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. In computing diluted earnings per share, basic earnings per share is adjusted for the assumed issuance of all potentially dilutive share-based awards, including stock options, restricted stock units, performance share units and restricted stock.
