Notes to Condensed Financial Statements

(unaudited and amounts in thousands, except share and per share amounts)

1. Nature of Business and Organization

Organization

Change Healthcare Inc. (the “Company”), a Delaware corporation, was formed on June 22, 2016 to hold an equity investment in Change Healthcare LLC (the “Joint Venture”), a joint venture between the Company and McKesson Corporation (“McKesson”). As of September 30, 2019, the Company and McKesson each owned approximately 41% and 59%, respectively, of the membership interest in the Joint Venture, subject to adjustment based on exercise of equity-based awards or other changes in the number of the Joint Venture’s membership units outstanding.

The Transactions

In June 2016, the Company, the Joint Venture, Change Healthcare Holdings, LLC, Change Healthcare Intermediate Holdings, LLC, Change Healthcare Performance, Inc. (“Legacy CHC”) and its stockholders—including affiliates of The Blackstone Group, Inc. (formerly known as the Blackstone Group L.P.) (“Blackstone”) and Hellman & Friedman LLC entered into an Agreement of Contribution and Sale (the “Contribution Agreement”) with McKesson (together with the Company, the “Members”). Under the terms of the Contribution Agreement, the parties agreed to form the Joint Venture, a joint venture that combined the majority of the McKesson Technology Solutions businesses, excluding McKesson’s Enterprise Information Solutions business and RelayHealth Pharmacy Network (such contributed businesses, “Core MTS”), with substantially all of the assets and operations of Legacy CHC, but excluding Legacy CHC’s pharmacy claims switching and prescription routing businesses (such excluded business, the “eRx Network” and the businesses contributed by Legacy CHC, together with Core MTS, the “Contributed Businesses”). The creation of the Joint Venture, including the contribution of the Contributed Businesses and related transactions, is collectively referred to as the “Transactions”. The Transactions closed on March 1, 2017.

Amendment of Certificate of Incorporation

Effective June 26, 2019 and in contemplation of its initial public offering of common stock, the Company amended its certificate of incorporation to effect a 126.4 for 1 stock split for all previously issued shares of common stock, to increase the authorized number of common stock, and to authorize shares of preferred stock. Following this amendment, the authorized shares include 9,000,000,000 shares of common stock (par value $.001 per share), 1 share of Class X stock (par value $.001 per share), and 900,000,000 shares of preferred stock (par value $.001 per share). All issued or outstanding shares or related share-based payment arrangement disclosures included herein have been retrospectively adjusted for the stock split.

Initial Public Offering

Effective July 1, 2019, the Company completed its initial public offering of 49,285,713 shares of common stock and a concurrent offering of 5,750,000 of tangible equity units (“TEUs”) for net proceeds of $608,679 and $278,875, respectively. The proceeds of the offering of common stock were subsequently contributed to the Joint Venture in exchange for 49,285,713 additional units of the Joint Venture, which together with the Company’s existing holdings represents an approximately 41% interest in the Joint Venture. The proceeds of the offering of TEUs were used to acquire TEUs of the Joint Venture that substantially mirror the terms of the TEUs included in the offering. The Joint Venture, in turn, used the proceeds received from the Company to repay $805,000 of its indebtedness under the Term Loan Facility without penalty in July 2019. The Joint Venture repaid an additional $85,000 of its indebtedness under the Term Loan Facility without penalty during the three months ended September 30, 2019 for a total paydown of $890,000.

2. Basis of Presentation

Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) Guidelines, Rules and Regulations and, in the opinion of management, reflect all normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of results for the unaudited interim periods presented. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in

Change Healthcare Inc.

Notes to Condensed Financial Statements

(unaudited and amounts in thousands, except share and per share amounts)

annual financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted. The results of operations for the interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results to be obtained for the full fiscal year. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in the unaudited condensed financial statements.

Accounting Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience, current business factors and various other assumptions that the Company believes are necessary to consider in order to form a basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities, the recorded amounts of expenses and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. The Company is subject to uncertainties such as the impact of future events, economic, environmental and political factors and changes in the Company’s business environment; therefore, actual results could differ from these estimates. Accordingly, the accounting estimates used in the preparation of the Company’s financial statements will change as new events occur, as more experience is acquired, as additional information is obtained and as the Company’s operating environment changes. Changes in estimates are made when circumstances warrant. Such changes in estimates and refinements in estimation methodologies are reflected in the reported results of operations; and if material, the effects of changes in estimates are disclosed in the notes to the financial statements. Estimates and assumptions by management affect: the carrying value of the Company’s investments; the provision and benefit for income taxes and related deferred tax accounts; contingencies; and the value attributed to equity awards. Additionally, the Company’s financial statements are impacted by estimates and assumptions made by management that affect the financial statements of the Joint Venture, including: the allowance for doubtful accounts; the fair value assigned to assets acquired and liabilities assumed in business combinations; tax receivable agreement obligations; the fair value of interest rate cap agreement obligations; measurement of the components of tangible equity units; contingent consideration; loss accruals; the carrying value of long-lived assets (including goodwill and intangible assets); the classification and measurement of assets held for sale; the amortization period of long-lived assets (excluding goodwill); the carrying value, capitalization and amortization of software development costs; the provision and benefit for income taxes and related deferred tax accounts; certain accrued expenses; revenue recognition; contingencies; and the value attributed to equity awards.

Tangible Equity Units

In connection with the initial public offering, the Company completed an offering of tangible equity units (TEUs). Each TEU comprises an amortizing note and purchase contract, both of which are freestanding instruments and separate units of account. The amortizing notes were issued at par and are classified as debt on the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet, with scheduled principal payments over the next twelve months reflected in current maturities of long-term debt. The purchase contracts are accounted for as prepaid forward contracts and classified as equity. The TEU proceeds and issuance costs were allocated to the amortizing notes and purchase contracts on a relative fair value basis. See Note 10 for further discussion.

Other Investments

The Company holds investments in tangible equity units issued by the Joint Venture with terms that substantially mirror the TEUs issued by the Company. Each TEU comprises an amortizing note and forward purchase contract, both of which are freestanding instruments and separate units of account. The Company accounts for its investment in each component at fair value. Unrealized gains and losses resulting from changes in the fair value of the investment in debt securities are included as a component of other comprehensive income. Unrealized gains and losses resulting from changes in the fair value of the investment in the equity purchase contracts are recorded in current period earnings, in accordance with ASU 2016-01. See Note 11 for further discussion.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In April 2019, the Company adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2018-07 on a modified retrospective basis, which expands the scope of Topic 718 to include share-based payment transactions for acquiring goods and services from nonemployees. Among other provisions, the measurement date for awards to nonemployees was changed from the earlier of the date at which a commitment for performance by the counterparty was reached or the date at which performance was complete under the previous guidance to the grant date under this update. Because the Company’s equity-based compensation was previously subject to remeasurement at fair value each quarter under previous authoritative literature, the adoption of this update had no material direct effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. As described in Note 7, however, the adoption of this update changed the relationship between the equity-based compensation and the accounting for the freestanding option (i.e. the Dividend receivable).

Change Healthcare Inc.

Notes to Condensed Financial Statements

(unaudited and amounts in thousands, except share and per share amounts)

In April 2019, the Joint Venture adopted Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which replaces most prior general and industry specific revenue recognition guidance with a principles-based comprehensive revenue recognition framework on a modified retrospective basis. Under this revised framework, a company will recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods and services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods and services. As the Company’s operations consist principally of an investment in the Joint Venture, its financial statements reflect no revenue and, accordingly, the Company recognized no direct impact on its financial statements from the adoption of this update. However, upon adoption, the Joint Venture recognized a cumulative effect adjustment to its Members’ deficit. As a result of the impact of the adoption of ASC 606 to the Joint Venture’s Members’ equity (deficit), the Company was required to recognize a proportionate amount of this cumulative effect adjustment to its April 1, 2019 retained earnings as well. The effect is disclosed within a separate caption of the accompanying condensed statement of stockholders’ equity.

Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, as amended by ASU No. 2018-19, which requires that a financial asset (or group of financial assets) measured at amortized cost be presented at the net amount expected to be collected based on relevant information about past events, including historical experience, current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts that affect the collectability of the reported amount. This update is scheduled to be effective for the Company beginning April 1, 2021, with early adoption permitted beginning April 1, 2019. The Company is currently assessing the potential effects this update may have on its condensed consolidated financial statements.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13, which modifies the disclosure requirements for fair value measurements. ASU 2018-13 is effective for public companies for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted for either the entire standard or only the provisions that eliminate or modify requirements. The Company is currently assessing the potential effects this update may have on its financial statement disclosures.

3. Equity Method Investment in Change Healthcare LLC

Exchange of Equity Method Investments

In connection with the Transactions, the Company exchanged its 45.615% investment in Legacy CHC for 30% of the membership units of the Joint Venture. The Joint Venture used proceeds from the issuance of debt to acquire the remaining 54.385% of Legacy CHC. The Company accounted for this exchange of investments as a non-monetary transaction at their respective carrying values. Prior to the Transactions, the investors of Legacy CHC accounted for their investments at fair value. As a result, the book basis and fair value of the Company’s investment in Legacy CHC were generally the same such that no gain was recognized as a result of the Transactions.

The fair value of the Joint Venture was determined at March 1, 2017 using a combination of the income and the market valuation approaches. Under the income approach, a discounted cash flow model (“DCF”) was used in which cash flows anticipated over several periods, plus a terminal value at the end of that time horizon, are discounted to their present value using an appropriate expected rate of return. The discount rate used for cash flows reflects capital market conditions and the specific risks associated with the business. Under the market approach, valuation multiples of reasonably similar publicly traded companies or guideline companies are applied to the operating data of the subject business to derive the estimated fair value. These valuation approaches are considered a Level 3 fair value measurement. Fair value determination requires complex assumptions and judgment by management in projecting future operating results, selecting guideline companies for comparisons, determining appropriate market value multiples, selecting the discount rate to measure the risks inherent in the future cash flows and assessing the business’s life cycle and the competitive trends impacting the business, including considering technical, legal, regulatory, or economic barriers to entry. Any material changes in key assumptions, including failure to meet business plans, deterioration in the financial market, an increase in interest rate or an increase in the cost of equity financing by market participants within the industry or other unanticipated events and circumstances, may affect such estimates.

Additional Ownership Interest

Following the initial public offering, the Company contributed the proceeds of the offering of common stock to the Joint Venture in exchange for 49,285,713 additional units of the Joint Venture, which represented approximately 11% of additional ownership interest. Resulting from the additional ownership interest acquired, the Company measured additional basis differences at July 1, 2019 based on the fair value of the Joint Venture’s assets and liabilities as of the date of the initial public offering, and using valuation approaches substantially similar to those used as of the date of the Transactions.

Equity Method Investment in Change Healthcare LLC

The Company accounts for its investment in the Joint Venture using the equity method of accounting. During the three and six months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, the Company recorded a proportionate share of the earnings from this investment based on its ownership percentage during each respective period, which included transaction and integration related expenses incurred by the Joint Venture and the Company’s portion of basis adjustments including amortization expenses associated with equity method intangible assets. These amounts are aggregated and recorded under the caption, “Loss from Equity Method Investment in the Joint Venture” in the accompanying condensed statements of operations.

Summarized financial information of the Joint Venture is as follows:


	Three Months Ended September 30,					Six Months Ended September 30,
	2019			2018		2019		2018
Statement of Operations Data:
Total revenue	$	795,811		$	800,190	$	1,651,367	$	1,623,453
Cost of operations (exclusive of depreciation and amortization)	$	331,234		$	327,563	$	658,181	$	664,993

Net income (loss)	$	(130	)	$	113,440	$	71,785	$	125,946

Subsequent to the Company’s initial public offering of common stock, the Company now has a publicly available indication of the value of its investment in the Joint Venture. The fair value that was derived from trading prices of the Company’s common stock at September 30, 2019 indicated a potential impairment to the carrying value of its investment in the Joint Venture. Accordingly, the Company evaluated its equity method investment for an other-than-temporary impairment (“OTTI”). The Company considered various factors in determining whether an OTTI has occurred, including the Company’s ability and intent to hold the investment, the trading history available, the implied EBITDA valuation multiples compared to public guideline companies, the Joint Venture’s ability to achieve milestones and any notable operational and strategic changes by the Joint Venture. After the evaluation, the Company determined that an OTTI had not occurred as of September 30, 2019 nor as of the date of this quarterly report on Form 10-Q. However, the Company may experience declines in the fair value of its investment in the Joint Venture, and it may determine an impairment loss will be required to be recognized in a future reporting period. Such determination will be based on the prevailing facts and circumstances, including those related to the reported results and disclosures of the Joint Venture as well as from changes in the market price of the Company’s common stock.

In the event the Company obtains a controlling interest in the Joint Venture, the Company will evaluate its investment under the guidance in ASC 805 for a business combination achieved in stages. Upon such a change in control, the Company will remeasure its investment in the Joint Venture to fair value as of the date that control is obtained and will recognize a gain or loss in its statement of operations for the difference between the carrying value and fair value of its investment.

4. Legal Proceedings

In the ordinary course of business, the Company may become subject to various claims and legal proceedings. The Company is not currently a defendant in any pending litigation.

6. Income Taxes

The income tax benefit for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 was $13,620 and $6,783, respectively, which represents an effective tax rate of 12.7% and 26.7%, respectively. The income tax benefit for the six months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 was $15,804 and $11,584, respectively, which represents an effective tax rate of 10.7% and 24.3%, respectively.

Fluctuations in our reported income tax rates from the statutory rate are primarily due to benefits recognized as a result of certain incentive tax credits resulting from research and experimental expenditures and discrete items recognized in the quarters.

McKesson Tax Receivable Agreement

In connection with the closing of the Transactions, the Joint Venture, subsidiaries of McKesson that serve as members of the Joint Venture (the “McK Members”), McKesson and the Company entered into a tax receivable agreement (the “McKesson Tax Receivable Agreement”). The McKesson Tax Receivable Agreement generally provides for the payment by the Joint Venture to the McK Members and it assigns 85% of the net cash tax savings realized (or, in certain circumstances, deemed to be realized) by the Company in periods ending on or after the date on which McKesson ceases to own at least 20% of the outstanding units of the Joint Venture (the “LLC Units”) as a result of (i) certain amortizable tax basis in assets transferred to the Joint Venture at the closing of the Transactions and (ii) imputed interest deductions and certain other tax attributes arising from payments under the McKesson Tax Receivable Agreement. Additionally, upon the occurrence of the first exchange of LLC Units by McKesson (or its permitted

transferees), if any, the Company has agreed to enter into an additional tax receivable agreement with the McK Members, pursuant to which the Company would be required to pay to the relevant McK Member 85% of the net cash tax savings, if any, arising from the Company’s utilization of (i) certain tax basis increases resulting from the relevant exchange and payments under such additional tax receivable agreement and (ii) imputed interest deductions. The Company may also be required to enter into and make payments under an additional tax receivable agreement with McKesson in certain circumstances.

Because payments under the McKesson Tax Receivable Agreement are contingent upon McKesson’s ceasing to own at least 20% of the Joint Venture and such an event was not probable at the inception of the McKesson Tax Receivable Agreement or as of September 30, 2019, no related obligation has been reflected on the accompanying condensed balance sheet.

Letter Agreement

The Company, the Joint Venture, McKesson and certain of McKesson’s affiliates have entered into a letter agreement relating to the Contribution Agreement (the “Letter Agreement”). The Letter Agreement addresses miscellaneous tax-related matters, including (i) technical clarifications and modifications to the manner in which the Joint Venture allocates certain items of taxable income, loss and deduction among, and calculates and makes required tax distributions to, its members, (ii) the sharing of certain contingent tax benefits and expenses not addressed by the McKesson Tax Receivable Agreement or the tax matters agreement that the Company will enter into with McKesson in connection with a spin-off or split-off transaction (or a combination of the foregoing) that McKesson may, at its election, initiate and complete that would result, among other things, in the acquisition by the Company of all of McKesson’s LLC Units and the issuance by the Company to McKesson and/or McKesson’s securityholders of an equal number of shares of its common stock and (iii) procedures applicable in the case of certain tax proceedings. In particular, pursuant to the terms of the Letter Agreement, McKesson may adjust the manner in which depreciation or amortization deductions in respect of assets transferred to the Joint Venture at the closing of the Transactions are allocated among the Company, McKesson and certain of McKesson’s affiliates beyond minimum amounts provided in the LLC Agreement. If an amount of deductions is allocated to the Company in excess of a specified minimum threshold, the Company will be required to make cash payments to McKesson equal to 100% of the tax savings of the Company attributable to such excess deductions for any tax period ending prior to the date on which McKesson ceases to own at least 20% of the outstanding LLC Units of the Joint Venture, after which the terms of the McKesson Tax Receivable Agreement will control. At September 30, 2019, the Company has recorded a liability to McKesson equal to $48,363, which reflects the amount payable for future tax savings the Company anticipates receiving as a result of deductions that are probable to be allocated by McKesson to the Company for the year ended March 31, 2019 and is reflected as Due to McKesson on the consolidated balance sheet.

7. Fair Value Measurements

The Company’s assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis consist of the Company’s Dividend Receivable and Other Investments. The debt component of the tangible equity units issued by the Company is a Level 2 liability measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis based on available market data and a discounted cash flow analysis (see Note 10). The tables below summarize the Dividend Receivable and Other Investments as of September 30, 2019 and March 31, 2019, aggregated by the level in the fair value hierarchy within which those measurements fall.

The Company is entitled to receive an additional unit of the Joint Venture for each share of stock issued by the Company. In the case of equity-based awards, the requirement to receive an additional unit of the Joint Venture upon exercise of such awards represents a freestanding derivative. Because the fair value measurement of this derivative involves significant unobservable inputs, the most significant of which is the use of a levered volatility calculation of a peer group of companies, the Company has determined that it represents a Level 3 fair value measurement.

Because the freestanding derivative is directly related to the Company’s equity-based compensation awards, the valuation of the derivative is determined to be consistent with the valuation of the underlying equity-based awards (although we use a current period measurement date). As with the equity-based awards, changes in the value of the derivative are generally expected to fluctuate with changes in the value of the Company’s common stock.

The following table summarizes the fair value of the freestanding derivative at September 30, 2019 and March 31, 2019, respectively:

Other Investments

The Company invested in a unit purchase contract and a debt instrument of the Joint Venture on terms that substantially mirror the economics of the TEUs (see Note 10). At September 30, 2019 and March 31, 2019, the Company’s investment in the Joint Venture’s debt securities were classified as “available-for-sale” and its investment in the Joint Venture’s purchase contracts were accounted for as equity securities measured at fair value. Changes in unrealized gains and losses for the Company’s investment in the Joint Venture’s debt securities are recognized as adjustments to other comprehensive income (loss) while changes in unrealized gains and losses for the Company’s investment in the Joint Venture’s purchase contracts are recognized as adjustments to pretax income (loss). The fair value measurement of the investments is based on available market data and a discounted cash flow analysis of the Joint Venture’s debt and equity securities for which the Company is investing.

Dividend Receivable

As the dividend receivable was initially received in connection with the contribution of assets to the Joint Venture, the initial fair value was treated as a component of the Company’s contribution of assets and receipt of its Investment in the Joint Venture. During the three and six months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, the Company recognized a decrease in the Dividend Receivable which was recorded as a component of Loss from Equity Method Investment in the Joint Venture. The result was that no net equity-based compensation related to employees of the Joint Venture was recognized in the financial statements of the Company for the three and six months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018.

Following the adoption of FASB ASU No. 2018-07, however, the measurement of equity-based compensation generally becomes fixed at the date of grant such that the fair value of the dividend receivable is no longer correlated with the amount of equity compensation recognized. As a result, following the adoption of FASB ASU No. 2018-07, the Loss from Equity Method Investment in the Joint Venture is subject to variability associated with changes in the fair value of the equity-based awards.

Effective April 1, 2018, the Joint Venture adopted FASB ASU No. 2017-12, which significantly changed the framework by which hedge accounting is recognized, presented and disclosed in the Joint Venture’s financial statements. The adoption of this update by the Joint Venture resulted in a reclassification between its accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) and accumulated earnings (deficit).

Effective April 1, 2019, the Joint Venture adopted FASB ASU No. 2018-02, which allows a reclassification from accumulated other comprehensive income to retained earnings for stranded tax effects resulting from the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017. The adoption of this update resulted in a reclassification between accumulative other comprehensive income (loss) and accumulated earnings (deficit).

As an investor in the Joint Venture, the Company has recognized its proportionate amount of these reclassifications as presented in the table above.

9. Equity Based Compensation

Effective as of the Company’s initial public offering, the Company adopted the Change Healthcare Inc. 2019 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “Omnibus Incentive Plan”) pursuant to which 25.0 million shares of the Company’s common stock have been reserved for issuance to employees, directors and consultants of the Company, the Joint Venture and its affiliates.

In connection with the Omnibus Incentive Plan, the Company, during the three and six months ended September 30, 2019, granted to the Joint Venture’s employees and directors one or a combination of time-vesting restricted stock units (RSUs), time-vesting deferred stock units, performance stock units, and cash settled restricted stock units under vesting terms that generally vary from one to four years from the date of grant. Each of these instruments is described below.

Restricted Stock Units (“RSUs”)—The Company granted 4,436,758 RSUs during the three and six months ended September 30, 2019. The RSUs are subject to either a graded vesting schedule over four years, or a one or four year cliff vesting schedule, depending on the terms of the specific award. Upon vesting, the RSUs are exchanged for shares of the Company’s common stock.

Performance Stock Units (“PSUs”)— The Company granted 1,079,621 PSUs during the three and six months ended September 30, 2019.The PSUs consist of two tranches, one for which the quantity of awards expected to vest varies based on the Joint Venture’s compound annual revenue growth rate over a three year period in comparison to a target percentage and one for which the quantity of awards expected to vest varies based on the Joint Venture’s compound annual Adjusted EBITDA growth rate over a three year period in comparison to a target percentage. The awards earned upon satisfaction of the performance conditions become vested on the fourth anniversary of the vesting commencement date of the award (i.e. continued service is required beyond the satisfaction of the performance condition prior to vesting). The Joint Venture recognizes compensation expense for the PSUs based on the number of awards that are considered probable to vest. Recognition of expense is based on the probability of achievement of performance targets and is periodically reevaluated.

Cash Settled Restricted Stock Units (“CSRSUs”)— The Company granted 597,006 CSRSUs during the three and six months ended September 30, 2019.The CSRSUs are expected to vest ratably over three years. Upon vesting, however, the Company is required to pay cash in settlement of such CSRSUs based on their fair value at the date such CSRSUs vest.

Deferred Stock Units (“DSUs”)—The Company granted 45,704 DSUs during the three and six months ended September 30, 2019. The DSUs vest 100% upon the one-year anniversary of the date of grant. Unlike the RSUs, however, the DSUs are exchanged for shares of the Company’s common stock only following the participant’s separation from service.

During the three and six months ended September 30, 2019, the Joint Venture recognized compensation expense of $6,096 related to awards granted under the Omnibus Incentive Plan. At September 30, 2019, aggregate unrecognized compensation expense of the Joint Venture related to the awards granted under the Omnibus Incentive Plan was $87,211.

10. Tangible Equity Units

In July 2019, the Company completed its offering of 5,750,000 TEUs. Total proceeds, net of underwriting discounts, were $278,875. Each TEU, which has a stated amount of $50, is comprised of a stock purchase contract and a senior amortizing note due June 30, 2022. The Company allocated the proceeds from the issuance of the TEUs to equity and debt based on the relative fair values of the respective components of each TEU. The value allocated to the stock purchase contracts is reflected net of issuance costs in additional paid in capital. The value allocated to the senior amortizing notes is reflected in debt on the accompanying balance sheet, with payments expected in the next twelve months reflected in current maturities of long-term debt. Issuance costs, reflected as a reduction of the face amount of the amortizing notes, are being accreted to the face amount of the debt under the effective interest method.

Change Healthcare Inc.

(unaudited and amounts in thousands, except share and per share amounts)

The aggregate values assigned upon issuance of the TEUs, based on the relative fair value of the respective components of each TEU, were as follows:


	Equity Component			Debt Component			Total
Price per TEU	$	41.7622		$	8.2378		$	50.00
Gross proceeds		240,133			47,367			287,500
Issuance costs		(7,204	)		(1,421	)		(8,625	)

Net proceeds	$	232,929		$	45,946		$	278,875

Each senior amortizing note has an initial principal amount of $8.2378 and bears interest at 5.5% per year. On each March 30, June 30, September 30 and December 30, the Company pays equal quarterly cash installments of $0.7500 per amortizing note (except for the September 30, 2019 installment payment, which was $0.7417 per amortizing note). Each installment constitutes a payment of interest and partial payment of principal. The carrying value and fair value of the senior amortizing notes as of September 30, 2019 was $42,537 and $43,896, respectively. Unless settled earlier, each purchase contract will automatically settle on June 30, 2022. The Company will deliver between a minimum of 18,429,325 shares and a maximum of 22,115,075 shares of the Company’s common stock, subject to adjustment, based on the Applicable Market Value (as defined below) of the Company’s common stock as described below:

•

If the Applicable Market Value is greater than $15.60 per share, holders will receive 3.2051 shares of common stock per purchase contract.

•

If the Applicable Market Value is less than or equal to $15.60 per share but greater than or equal to $13.00 per share, the holder will receive a number of shares of the Company’s common stock per purchase contract equal to $50, divided by the Applicable Market Value; and

•

If the Applicable Market Value is less than $13.00 per share, the holder will receive 3.8461 shares of common stock per purchase contract.

The Applicable Market Value is defined as the arithmetic average of the volume weighted average price per share of the Company’s common stock over the twenty consecutive trading day period immediately preceding the balance sheet date, or June 30, 2022, for settlement of the stock purchase contracts.

The TEUs have a dilutive effect on the Company’s net income (loss) per share. The 18,429,325 minimum shares to be issued are included in the calculation of basic net income (loss) per share. The difference between the minimum shares and the maximum shares are potentially dilutive securities, and accordingly, are included in the Company’s diluted net income (loss) per share on a pro rata basis to the extent the Applicable Market Value is higher than $13.00 but is less than $15.60 at period end.

11. Other Investments

The proceeds of the offering of TEUs were used to acquire TEUs of the Joint Venture that substantially mirror the terms of the TEUs included in the offering. Under these mirrored arrangements, the Joint Venture is required to make cash payments or to transfer LLC Units to the Company concurrent with any cash payments or issuance of shares by the Company pursuant to the terms of its TEUs. The Company accounts for these mirror arrangements as investments in debt and equity securities.

At September 30, 2019 and March 31, 2019, the Company’s investment in debt securities are classified as “available-for-sale” and its investment in forward purchase contracts are considered equity securities measured at fair value. Changes in unrealized gains and losses for the Company’s debt securities are recognized as adjustments to other comprehensive income (loss) while changes in unrealized gains and losses for the Company’s investment in forward purchase contracts are recognized as adjustments to pretax income (loss).

A summary of the Company’s other investments at September 30, 2019 and March 31, 2019 is summarized in the tables that follow.

12. Subsequent Events

Agreement to Sell Office Property

In October 2019, the Joint Venture executed an agreement for the sale of its Alpharetta, GA office property for gross proceeds of approximately $31,500. The sale is expected to be completed during the third quarter of the Joint Venture’s fiscal year. While the Joint Venture expects to recognize a gain of an immaterial amount as a result of this transaction, the Company expects, as a result of the write-off of basis differences associated with this office property, to recognize a loss within its Loss from equity method investment in the Joint Venture of approximately $14,000.

Recent Developments

Effective June 26, 2019, Change Healthcare Inc.’s Registration Statement on Form S-1 for the initial public offering of 49.3 million shares of common stock and the concurrent offering of 5.75 million tangible equity units (“TEUs”) was declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and Change Healthcare Inc. subsequently amended its charter to authorize 9 billion shares of common stock and effected a 126.4 for 1 split of its common stock. Change Healthcare Inc.’s common stock and TEUs began trading the next day on the NASDAQ under the CHNG and CHNGU ticker symbols, respectively.

The offerings of common stock and TEUs were consummated on July 1, 2019 and resulted in Change Healthcare Inc. receiving net proceeds of $608.7 million and $278.9 million respectively, before consideration of offering costs paid subsequent to the offering from available cash. The proceeds of the offering of common stock were subsequently contributed to the Joint Venture in exchange for 49.3 million additional units of the Joint Venture, thereby resulting in an additional ownership in the Joint Venture of approximately 11%. The proceeds of the offering of TEUs were used to acquire TEUs of the Joint Venture that substantially mirror the terms of the TEUs issued by Change Healthcare Inc. in the offering. The Joint Venture, in turn, used the proceeds received from Change Healthcare Inc. to repay $805.0 million of its indebtedness under the Term Loan Facility (as defined herein) without penalty in July 2019.

In July 2019, the Joint Venture amended its Revolving Credit Facility (as defined herein), the primary effects of which were to increase the maximum amount that can be borrowed from $500.0 million to $785.0 million and to extend the maturity date until March 1, 2024. In the event that the outstanding balance under the Term Loan Facility exceeds $1.1 billion on December 1, 2023, however, amounts due, if any, under the Revolving Facility become due and payable on December 1, 2023.

Change Healthcare Inc.

Overview

Change Healthcare Inc. (formerly HCIT Holdings, Inc.), a Delaware corporation, was formed on June 22, 2016 to hold an equity investment in Change Healthcare LLC, a joint venture between Change Healthcare Inc. and McKesson Corporation (“McKesson”), which we refer to as the Joint Venture. Each of Change Healthcare Inc. and McKesson holds a 50% voting interest in the Joint Venture, with equal representation on the Joint Venture’s board of directors and with all major operating, investing and financial activities requiring the consent of both members. As a result, Change Healthcare Inc. accounts for this investment using the equity method of accounting.

Change Healthcare Inc. has no substantive assets apart from its investment in the Joint Venture. As a result, Change Healthcare Inc. believes the financial statements of the Joint Venture are more relevant to an investor than Change Healthcare Inc.’s financial statements as they include greater detail regarding the financial condition and results of operations of the business.

Key Components of Change Healthcare Inc.’s Results of Operations

Loss from Equity Method Investment in the Joint Venture

Loss from equity method investment in the Joint Venture generally represents Change Healthcare Inc.’s proportionate share of the income or loss from this investment, including basis adjustments related to amortization expense associated with equity method intangible assets, property and equipment, deferred revenue and other items.

Loss from equity method investment in the Joint Venture was $56.2 million and $25.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. The loss from equity method investment in the Joint Venture increased as a result of incremental basis difference amortization due to the additional units of the Joint Venture that were acquired using the proceeds of the initial public offering, combined with lower operating profits at the Joint Venture in the current quarter when compared to the same quarter in the prior year, primarily due to the gain recognized from the sale of the Joint Venture’s extended care business during the three months ended September 30, 2018.

Loss from equity method investment in the Joint Venture was $95.7 million and $48.3 million for the six months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. The loss from equity method investment in the Joint Venture for the six months ended September 30, 2019 was discretely affected by the Joint Venture’s adoption of Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification No. 606 (“ASC 606”) and Change Healthcare Inc.’s adoption of FASB Accounting Standards Update No. 2018-07 (“ASU 2018-07”). The loss from equity method investment in the Joint Venture was decreased by approximately $17.0 million as a result of the continuing effect of the adoption of ASC 606 and was increased by approximately $45.4 million as a result of changes in the fair value of its dividend receivable following the adoption of ASU 2018-07.

General and Administrative Expense and Management Fees

In addition to its income (loss) from its equity method investment in the Joint Venture, Change Healthcare Inc. may also periodically incur certain other operating expenses, including professional service fees, general liability insurance, and other fees associated with being an SEC registrant.

To the extent any such fees Change Healthcare Inc. incurs are required to facilitate or maintain its status as a public company, however, the limited liability company agreement of the Joint Venture (the “LLC Agreement”) contemplates that Change Healthcare Inc. be reimbursed for such costs by the Joint Venture. Such reimbursements are classified as management fees within Change Healthcare Inc.’s statements of operations.

Gain (Loss) on Sale of Interests in the Joint Venture

Under the terms of the LLC Agreement, Change Healthcare Inc. and the Joint Venture agreed to cooperate to ensure a 1:1 ratio of outstanding shares of common stock of Change Healthcare Inc. to the units of the Joint Venture (“LLC Units”) held by Change Healthcare Inc. as long as the subsidiaries of McKesson that serve as members of the Joint Venture (the “McK Members”) hold LLC Units. This provision requires that Change Healthcare Inc. be issued an additional LLC Unit for each share of common stock that Change Healthcare Inc. issues. Similarly, for any share that Change Healthcare Inc. repurchases, the Joint Venture is likewise required to repurchase a respective LLC Unit from Change Healthcare Inc. In this latter case, the repurchase by the Joint Venture of LLC Unit(s) from Change Healthcare Inc. results in a gain or loss to Change Healthcare Inc. equal to the difference in the fair value of such LLC Units and the proportionate carrying value of Change Healthcare Inc.’s investment in the Joint Venture associated with such repurchased LLC Units.

Income Taxes

As the Joint Venture is treated as a partnership for income tax purposes, Change Healthcare Inc. is subject to income taxes for its allocable portion of the Joint Venture’s taxable income. The income tax benefit was $13.6 million and $6.8 million (which resulted in effective income tax rates of 12.7% and 26.7%) for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. The income tax benefit was $15.8 million and $11.6 million (which resulted in effective income tax rates of 10.7% and 24.3%) for the six months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

as outlined in Note 6, Income Taxes. In the three months ended September 30, 2019 the Company has recorded a liability to McKesson equal to $48.4 million, which reflects the amount payable for future tax savings the Company anticipates receiving as a result of deductions that are probable to be allocated by McKesson to the Company for the year ended March 31, 2019.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Overview

Change Healthcare Inc.’s principal source of liquidity consists of distributions or advances from the Joint Venture. To the extent that Change Healthcare Inc. requires additional funds, Change Healthcare Inc. may need to raise funds through subsequent debt or equity financing.

Change Healthcare Inc. has not incurred, nor does it expect to incur, significant capital expenditures in the normal course of business or to pursue acquisition opportunities other than through the Joint Venture.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of September 30, 2019, Change Healthcare Inc. had no off-balance sheet arrangements.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

See Note 2, Basis of Presentation, within Change Healthcare Inc.’s financial statements appearing elsewhere in this Quarterly Report for information about recent accounting pronouncements and the potential impact on Change Healthcare Inc.’s financial statements.

Critical Accounting Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) requires Change Healthcare Inc. to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts and related disclosures. Change Healthcare Inc. considers an accounting estimate to be critical if:

•

it requires assumptions to be made that were uncertain at the time the estimate was made; and

•

changes in the estimate or different estimates that could have been made could have a material impact on Change Healthcare Inc.’s results of operations and financial condition.

As disclosed in Note 2, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, in Change Healthcare Inc.’s Registration Statement on Form S-1 (333-230345), Change Healthcare Inc. evaluates its equity method investment for impairment review whenever an event or change in circumstances occurs that may have a significant adverse impact on the carrying value of the investment. If a loss in value occurs that is deemed to be other than temporary, an impairment loss would be recognized.

Subsequent to the IPO, Change Healthcare Inc. now has a publicly available indication of the value of its investment in the Joint Venture. Accordingly, Change Healthcare Inc. evaluated its equity method investment for an other-than-temporary impairment (“OTTI”). Change Healthcare Inc. considered various factors in determining whether an OTTI had occurred, including Change Healthcare Inc.’s ability and intent to hold the investment, the trading history available, the implied EBITDA valuation multiples compared to public guideline companies, and the Joint Venture’s ability to achieve milestones and any operational and strategic changes by the Joint Venture that might have negatively impacted the fair value. After the evaluation, Change Healthcare Inc. determined that an OTTI had not occurred as of September 30, 2019 or as of the date of this quarterly report on Form 10-Q. However, the Joint Venture may experience declines in its fair value, and Change Healthcare Inc. may determine an impairment loss will be required to be recognized in a future reporting period. Such determination will be based on the prevailing facts and circumstances, including those related to the reported results and disclosures of the Joint Venture, as well as from changes in the market price of Change Healthcare Inc.’s common stock.

Change Healthcare Inc.’s investments in the debt and equity securities of the Joint Venture are reported at fair value. The measurement of these investments is impacted by changes in market interest rates, as well as factors that impact the underlying value of the Joint Venture’s equity. See Note 11 for further discussion.

Change Healthcare Inc. believes the current assumptions and other considerations used to estimate amounts reflected in Change Healthcare Inc.’s financial statements are appropriate. However, if actual experience differs from the assumptions and other considerations used in estimating amounts reflected in Change Healthcare Inc.’s financial statements, the resulting changes could have a material adverse effect on Change Healthcare Inc.’s results of operations and financial condition.

See Note 2, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, within Change Healthcare Inc.’s financial statements appearing in the Registration Statement on Form S-1 (333-230345) for information about Change Healthcare Inc.’s other critical accounting policies.

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure of Market Risk

As Change Healthcare Inc. has no substantive assets or operations apart from its investment in the Joint Venture, Change Healthcare Inc. does not believe that it has significant market risk.

Summary Disclosures about Contractual Obligations and Commercial Commitments

During the three months ended September 30, 2019, Change Healthcare Inc. issued TEUs comprised of a stock purchase contract and a senior amortizing note due June 30, 2022. See Note 10, Tangible Equity Units. Change Healthcare Inc. has no other ongoing contractual obligations or commercial commitments as of September 30, 2019.

Change Healthcare LLC

Overview

The Joint Venture is a leading independent healthcare technology company, formed through the combination of substantially all of the businesses of Change Healthcare Performance, Inc. (formerly Change Healthcare, Inc.) (“Legacy CHC”) and a majority of the McKesson Technology Solutions business (“Core MTS”), which was completed on March 1, 2017. The Joint Venture offers a comprehensive suite of software, analytics, technology enabled services and network solutions that drive improved results in the complex workflows of healthcare system payers and providers. The Joint Venture’s solutions are designed to improve clinical decision making, simplify billing, collection and payment processes and enable a better patient experience.

The Joint Venture offers comprehensive end-to-end solutions with modular capabilities to address its customers’ needs. Working with its customers to analyze workflows before, during and after care has been delivered to patients, the Joint Venture designs and commercializes innovative solutions for various points in the healthcare delivery timeline. The Joint Venture’s offerings range from discrete data and analytics solutions to broad enterprise-wide solutions, which include workflow software and technology-enabled services that help its customers achieve their operational objectives.

The Joint Venture’s Intelligent Healthcare Network was created to facilitate the transfer of data among participants and is one of the largest clinical and financial healthcare networks in the United States. In the fiscal year ended March 31, 2018, Change Healthcare facilitated nearly 14 billion healthcare transactions and approximately $1 trillion in adjudicated claims or approximately one-third of all U.S. healthcare expenditures. The Joint Venture serves the vast majority of U.S. payers and providers. The Joint Venture’s customer base includes approximately 2,200 government and commercial payer connections, 900,000 physicians, 118,000 dentists, 33,000 pharmacies, 5,500 hospitals and 600 laboratories. This network transacts clinical records for over 112 million unique patients, more than one-third of the estimated total U.S. population. With insights gained from its pervasive network, extensive applications and analytics portfolio and its services operations, the Joint Venture has designed analytics solutions that include industry-leading and trusted franchises supported by extensive intellectual property and regularly updated content.

In addition to the advantages of scale, the Joint Venture believes it offers the collaborative benefits of a mission-critical partner. The Joint Venture seeks enduring relationships with each customer through solutions embedded in their complex daily workflows that deliver measurable results. The Joint Venture’s customer retention rate for its top 50 provider and top 50 payer customers for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2019 was 100%. The Joint Venture believes its size, scale, thought leadership and prevalence across the healthcare ecosystem help make it a preferred partner for innovative technology companies and industry associations focused on driving standardization and efficiencies in the healthcare industry.

Segments

The Joint Venture reports its financial results in the following three reportable segments: Software and Analytics, Network Solutions and Technology-Enabled Services.

•

Software and Analytics provides software and analytics solutions for financial performance, payment accuracy, clinical decision management, value-based payment, provider and consumer engagement and imaging and clinical workflow.

•

Network Solutions enables financial, administrative and clinical transactions, electronic business-to-business and consumer-to-business payments and aggregation and analytics of clinical and financial data.

•

Technology-Enabled Services provides solutions for financial and administrative management, value-based care, communication and payment, pharmacy benefits administration and healthcare consulting.

In April 2019, the Joint Venture made certain changes in the way that it manages its business and allocates costs. Specifically, the Joint Venture made the following changes:

•

Moved its consumer payments solution from the Network Solutions reportable segment to the Technology-enabled Services reportable segment.

•

Moved its consumer engagement solutions from the Software and Analytics reportable segment to the Network Solutions reportable segment.

•

Made certain changes in the way that costs are assigned to reportable segments.

The presentation of revenue and Adjusted EBITDA included within this management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations has been retrospectively adjusted for all periods presented to reflect the above described changes.

Factors Affecting Change Healthcare’s Results of Operations

The following are certain key factors that affect, will affect, or have recently affected, the Joint Venture’s results of operations:

Post-Contribution Cost Synergies

In connection with the Transactions, the Joint Venture identified opportunities to implement certain cost synergies based on its analyses of existing operating structures, estimated spend by category, its resource requirements and industry benchmarks for similar activities. The Joint Venture expects such cost synergies to include, among others, (i) product integration, network efficiencies and combining common products; (ii) procurement savings from the elimination of duplicate orders, leveraging scale and optimization of providers; (iii) utilization of global talent; and (iv) reduction of management redundancies and duplicative roles.

By the end of the fourth year following the combination of Legacy CHC and Core MTS, the Joint Venture expects to have implemented operational initiatives to fully realize these synergies, which are expected to result in significant annual run-rate cost savings and efficiencies. The Joint Venture has incurred significant non-recurring expenses and expects to continue to incur such expenses in order to achieve these cost synergies.

Macroeconomic and Industry Trends

The healthcare industry is highly regulated and subject to frequently changing complex regulatory and other requirements. For example, ongoing healthcare reform has significantly affected the healthcare regulatory environment by changing how healthcare services are covered, delivered and reimbursed through coverage expansion, reduced federal healthcare program spending, increased efforts to link federal healthcare program payments to quality and efficiency and insurance market reforms. The number of states that will ultimately participate in some form of Medicaid expansion and the future of mandated coverage for individuals is not yet clear. If the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (collectively, the “ACA”) is repealed or significantly modified, such repeal or modification, any alternative reforms adopted in its place or the failure to adopt alternative reforms may have a material impact on the Joint Venture’s business. For example, since many of the Joint Venture’s products and services include solutions designed to assist customers in effectively navigating the shift to value-based healthcare, the elimination of, or significant reductions to, the ACA’s various value-based healthcare initiatives may adversely impact the Joint Venture’s business. While the specific regulatory instruments and tactics used to implement reform may change in the future, the Joint Venture expects that the pervasive focus on improving coverage, efficiency and quality and related needs for payers and providers to optimize performance and reduce costs will continue.

Revenue Convergence

The Joint Venture adopted ASC 606 using the modified retrospective transition method applied only to contracts that were not completed as of the date of initial application. The adoption of ASC 606 resulted in a cumulative effect adjustment to reduce members’ equity (deficit) as of April 1, 2019 by $159.9 million. After assessing all potential impacts of adopting the new standard on its consolidated financial statements, related disclosures, and necessary control and process changes, the Joint Venture noted the following to be the most notable impacts of adopting the new standard:

•

Revenue for certain contingent fee service arrangements will be accelerated as revenue for these arrangements is recognized as the services are performed.

•

Revenue related to certain time-based software and content license agreements will be accelerated. The license component for certain time-based software will be recognized upon delivery to the customer (“point in time”), or in the case of software that requires significant production, modification or customization, recognized as the implementation work is performed. A non-license component (e.g., technical support) will be recognized over the respective contract terms (“over time”).

•

Incremental costs to obtain contracts and qualifying costs to fulfill will be capitalized and amortized over the period of benefit. The net result of this change was an increase to capitalized contract costs on the balance sheet; these capitalized costs will be amortized and recognized as expense over an incrementally longer period of time.

Refer to Note 2, Basis of Presentation, in the unaudited condensed financial statements of the Joint Venture included as Exhibit 99.1 to this Quarterly Report for a full description of the impact of the adoption of ASC 606 on the Joint Venture’s financial statements.

Equity-based Compensation

Change Healthcare Inc. grants equity-based awards of Change Healthcare Inc. common stock to certain employees, officers and directors of Change Healthcare Inc. and the Joint Venture. For grants to employees, equity-based awards are generally measured at the date of grant and recognized as expense over each employee’s service period. Because the Joint Venture’s employees are not considered employees of Change Healthcare Inc., however, prior to the adoption of FASB ASU No. 2018-07 on April 1, 2019, the Joint Venture was generally required to re-measure these equity-based awards at fair value each quarter until the earlier of the completion of required service or the performance commitment date. As a result, the Joint Venture’s results of operations have historically reflected volatility from the periodic re-measurement of its equity-based awards.

In April 2019, the Joint Venture adopted FASB ASU No. 2018-07, the effect of which is to require that equity awards to non-employees be treated similarly to awards to employees. As a result, the Joint Venture expects to significantly lessen the volatility on equity-based compensation that has historically resulted from changes in the fair value of the underlying stock of Change Healthcare Inc., stock price volatility among its peer companies, changes in interest rates and the passage of time.

In connection with the initial public offering, the Board of Directors adopted, and the stockholders approved, the Change Healthcare Inc. 2019 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “Omnibus Incentive Plan”), which became effective as of the date of the IPO. The purpose of our Omnibus Incentive Plan is to provide a means through which to attract and retain key personnel and to provide a means whereby our directors, officers, employees, consultants and advisors (and those of the Joint Venture and its subsidiaries) can acquire and maintain an equity interest in us or be paid incentive compensation. The Omnibus Incentive Plan allows us to implement a new market-based long-term incentive program to align our executive compensation package with similarly situated public companies.

As part of the 2019 Omnibus Incentive Plan, the Board of Directors may, from time to time, grant awards to one or more eligible persons. All awards granted under the Plan shall vest and become exercisable in such manner and on such dates or upon such events as determined by the Board of Directors, including attainment of performance conditions. Each award granted under the Omnibus Incentive Plan shall be evidenced by an award agreement, which agreement need not be the same for each participant.

Refer to Note 11, Equity Based Compensation, in the unaudited condensed financial statements of the Joint Venture included as Exhibit 99.1 to this Quarterly Report for a full description of the new awards included in the long-term incentive program.

Acquisitions and Divestitures

The Joint Venture actively evaluates opportunities to improve and expand its business through targeted acquisitions that are consistent with its strategy. On occasion, the Joint Venture also may dispose of certain components of its business that no longer fit within its overall strategy. Because of the Joint Venture’s acquisition and divestiture activity, as well as the shifting revenue mix of its business due to this activity, the Joint Venture’s results of operations may not be directly comparable among periods.

In July 2018, certain of the Joint Venture’s affiliates sold all of the membership interests in the Joint Venture’s extended care business (a component of the software and analytics reportable segment) for net cash proceeds of $159.9 million.

Income Taxes

The Joint Venture’s effective income tax rate is affected by several factors. The following table and subsequent commentary reconciles the Joint Venture’s federal statutory rate to its effective income tax rate and the subsequent commentary describes the more significant of the reconciling factors:


	Six Months Ended September 30, 2019			Six Months Ended September 30, 2018
Statutory U.S. federal tax rate		21.00	%		21.00	%
State income taxes (net of federal benefit)		0.13			(0.04	)
Income passed through to Members		(16.39	)		(21.15	)
Change in valuation allowance		(4.58	)		0.05
Research and development credits (net of uncertain tax positions)		(2.29	)		(2.83	)
Return to provision adjustments		1.29			0.14
Other		4.29			1.03

Effective income tax rate		3.45	%		(1.80	)%

State Income Taxes—The Joint Venture’s effective tax rate for state income taxes is generally impacted by changes in its apportionment.

Income Passed through to Members—Certain of the Joint Venture’s subsidiaries are organized as limited liability corporations and report income that is distributed to the Members where it is subject to income taxes.

Change in tax liability on outside basis difference of foreign subsidiary—The Joint Venture records tax expense or benefit related to undistributed earnings in a foreign subsidiary for the change in the amount of excess of book basis over tax basis in the subsidiary.

Change in Valuation Allowance—The Joint Venture records valuation allowances or reverses existing valuation allowances related to assumed future income tax benefits depending on circumstances and factors related to its business. During the six months ended September 30, 2019, the Joint Venture released a valuation allowance related to prior deferred tax assets as a result of its change in judgment resulting from forecasted earnings and tax planning strategies that provide for future taxable income in the relevant jurisdictions.

Research and development credits (net of uncertain tax position liability)—The Joint Venture records credits against income taxes for certain research and development expenditures in the U.S. and Canada net of the portion that is estimated to be included in Change Healthcare Inc.’s unrecognized tax benefits.

Qualified McKesson Exit

In connection with a Qualified McKesson Exit, we anticipate that Change Healthcare Inc. will acquire the interest in the Joint Venture that it did not own prior to such transaction. As a result, in periods following the Qualified McKesson Exit, Change Healthcare LLC is expected to be a wholly-owned subsidiary of Change Healthcare Inc., and Change Healthcare Inc. will consolidate the financial position and results of Change Healthcare LLC in its financial statements.

Change Healthcare Inc. expects to account for the Qualified McKesson Exit and related transactions as a business combination achieved in stages in accordance with the FASB Accounting Standards Codification Business Combinations Topic, resulting in a new basis of accounting. As a result, Change Healthcare Inc. will be required to remeasure its investment in the Joint Venture to fair value as of the date that control is obtained and will recognize a gain or loss in its statement of operations for the difference in the carrying value and fair value of this investment. Further, Change Healthcare Inc. expects to recognize the consideration transferred, as well as the acquired business’s identifiable assets, liabilities and noncontrolling interests at their acquisition date fair value. The excess of the consideration transferred over the fair value of the identifiable assets, liabilities and noncontrolling interest, if any, is anticipated to be recorded as goodwill. Any excess of the fair value of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed over the consideration transferred, if any, would generally be recognized within earnings as of the acquisition date.

As a result of the accounting for these transactions and the anticipated change in basis of accounting, the consolidated results of Change Healthcare Inc. in periods following the Qualified McKesson Exit will not be comparable to the consolidated results of the Joint Venture in periods prior to the Qualified McKesson Exit. The following are certain of the more significant changes resulting from the Qualified McKesson Exit that are expected to affect the comparability of financial results and operations:

•

Gain or loss upon remeasuring Change Healthcare Inc.’s investment in the Joint Venture at its fair value.

•

Increased tangible and intangible assets resulting from adjusting the basis of tangible and intangible assets to their fair value which is expected to result in increased depreciation and amortization expense.

•

Potential increase or decrease in long-term debt as a result of adjustments to state the long-term debt at its fair value. Resulting differences in the historical carrying value and fair value of the long-term debt are expected to result in either additional discount or premium which, in turn, may materially increase or decrease future interest expense.

•

Decreased deferred revenue as a result of recognizing deferred revenue in the business combination only to the extent that contractual obligations remain to be fulfilled at that time. Decreases in deferred revenue are expected to result in decreased solutions revenue in the near term.

•

Income currently attributable to the Joint Venture and not subject to U.S. federal income taxes and most state and local income taxes will become subject to such taxes, resulting in an expected increase in Change Healthcare Inc.’s effective tax rate compared with the historical effective tax rate of the Joint Venture.

Results of Operations

The Joint Venture adopted the new revenue recognition accounting standard, ASC 606, effective April 1, 2019 on a modified retrospective basis. Its results of operations as presented within the following discussion and analysis includes financial results for reporting periods during fiscal 2020, which are disclosed in compliance with the new revenue recognition standard. Historical financial results for reporting periods prior to fiscal 2020 have not been retroactively restated and are presented in conformity with amounts previously disclosed under the prior revenue recognition standard, ASC 605. The Joint Venture has included additional information regarding the impacts from the adoption of the new revenue recognition standard for the three and six months ended September 30, 2019 and included financial results during fiscal 2020 under ASC 605 for comparison to the prior year.

The following table summarizes our consolidated results of operations for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively:

Three Months Ended September 30, 2019 (ASC 605 Basis) Compared to Three Months Ended September 30, 2018

Solutions Revenue

Solutions revenue increased $10.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019, compared with the same period in the prior year. Factors affecting the Joint Venture’s solutions revenue are described in the various segment discussions below.

Expenses

Costs of Operations (Exclusive of Depreciation and Amortization)

Costs of operations (exclusive of depreciation and amortization) increased $4.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019, compared with the same period in the prior year. The increase in the Joint Venture’s costs of operations is primarily attributable to an increase in information technology maintenance and data and communications costs.

Research and Development

Research and development expenses increased $0.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019, compared with the same period in the prior year. The increase is primarily attributable to increases in investments, offset by synergies associated with reduction or elimination of duplicative roles.

Sales, Marketing, General and Administrative

Sales, marketing, general and administrative expenses decreased $12.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019, compared with the same period in the prior year. Sales, marketing, general and administrative expense for each of the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 reflects significant integration related costs, including professional and consulting fees related to rationalizations of information technology, business process re-engineering, implementation of human resource and finance information technology systems, severance and other costs. The amount of such costs, however, decreased by $8.5 million in the three months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to the same period in the prior year.

Customer Postage

Customer postage decreased $5.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019, compared with the same period in the prior year. Customer postage is affected by the declines in print volumes within communication and payment solutions, which were partially offset by the effect of a USPS postage rate increase in January 2019 (e.g. an increase in first-class postage of 10%). Because customer postage is a pass-through cost to the Joint Venture’s customers, however, changes in volume of customer postage generally have no effect on operating income.

Depreciation and Amortization

Depreciation and amortization increased $8.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019, compared with the same period in the prior year. Depreciation and amortization were generally affected by routine amortization of tangible and intangible assets existing at March 31, 2019 as well as the routine amortization and depreciation of additions to property, equipment, and software since that date.

Accretion and changes in estimate with related parties, net

Accretion and changes in estimate with related parties, net decreased $2.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019, compared with the same period in the prior year. Accretion is routinely affected by changes in the expected timing or amount of cash flows which may result from various factors, including changes in tax rates and McKesson’s discretionary allocation of deductions under the terms of the Letter Agreement.

Interest expense

Interest expense decreased $10.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019, compared with the same period in the prior year. This decrease is primarily attributable to the repayment of approximately $805.0 million of variable interest rate debt in July 2019 from the proceeds of the initial public offering and an additional repayment of $85.0 million during the three months ended September 30, 2019. The Joint Venture has interest rate cap agreements in place to limit its exposure to rising interest rates, and such agreements together with the Joint Venture’s fixed rate notes effectively fixed interest rates for approximately 59% of the Joint Venture’s total indebtedness at September 30, 2019.

Loss on Extinguishment of Debt

Loss on extinguishment of debt for the three months ended September 30, 2019 of $16.9 million includes a loss of $15.8 million related to the unamortized discounts and debt issuance costs associated with the total repayment of $890.0 million on the Term Loan Facility, as well as a loss of $1.1 million due to the deemed extinguishment associated with the amendment of the Revolving Credit Facility.

Contingent consideration

Contingent consideration reflects changes in the fair value of the Joint Venture’s earnout obligation to the former owners of an acquired business. Such amounts may increase or decrease in the future based on changes in the expected amount, timing, and probability of making such payments in the future.

Other, net

Other, net primarily represents income the Joint Venture receives from McKesson and eRx Network related to transitional and other services that we provide them following the closing of the Transactions in March 2017.

Income Tax Provision (Benefit)

The income tax provision was $1.0 million (effective tax rate of 115.0%) for the three months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to an income tax benefit of $2.1 million (effective tax rate of -1.9%) for the three months ended September 30, 2018. The Joint Venture’s income taxes and related effective tax rate are routinely affected by it and its subsidiaries’ legal organization. Certain of the Joint Venture’s subsidiaries are organized as limited liability corporations and report income that is distributed to the Members where it is subject to income taxes. Other subsidiaries are organized as corporations, for which the tax effects are directly reflected in the Joint Venture’s financial statements.

As a result of displaying amounts in millions, rounding differences may exist in the tables above.

Software and Analytics

Software and Analytics revenue increased $5.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019 compared with the same period in the prior year. Software and Analytics revenue reflects core revenue growth and timing, partially offset by ongoing efforts to rationalize the connected analytics solution and the effect of prior year one-time nonrecurring revenue of $6.0 million in the enterprise imaging business.

Software and Analytics Adjusted EBITDA increased $9.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019, compared to the same period in the prior year. This increase in Adjusted EBITDA was attributable to core revenue growth and timing, operational synergies, and cost initiatives related to the connected analytics solution, partially offset by the decline in the enterprise imaging business.

Network Solutions

Network Solutions revenue increased $8.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019 compared with the same period in the prior year, which primarily reflects increased revenues resulting from the sale of new contracts in the data solutions, dental and medical network businesses and stronger volume.

Network Solutions Adjusted EBITDA increased by $2.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019 compared to the same period in the prior year. As described above, Network Solutions revenue was positively affected by increased revenues resulting from the sale of new contacts in the data solutions, dental and medical network businesses and stronger volumes. Adjusted EBITDA similarly increased as a result of these factors partially offset by investments to support the data solutions new market expansion efforts and continued investment in network capabilities.

Technology-enabled Services

Technology-enabled Services revenue decreased $2.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019, compared with the same period in the prior year. Technology-enabled Services revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2019 was primarily impacted by new sales and same store organic growth of $24 million, which was more than offset by $30 million of customer attrition (including the company’s decision to exit certain contracts). Customer attrition for the three months ended September 30, 2019 reflects the full current period impact of attrition that occurred throughout fiscal year 2019 in the Joint Venture’s physician revenue cycle management and communication and payment services solutions, driven by industry consolidation. While the Joint Venture expects that such consolidation will continue in the future, as part of its strategy, the Joint Venture is repositioning certain of its solutions to better address end market dynamics, enhance efficiency and to improve the long-term growth potential of these solutions.

Technology-enabled Services Adjusted EBITDA increased $1.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019, compared to the same period in the prior year. Technology-enabled Services Adjusted EBITDA for the three months ended September 30, 2019 reflects the decrease in Technology-enabled Services revenue which was more than offset by cost savings from the Joint Venture’s post-contribution cost synergy initiatives.

Six Months Ended September 30, 2019 (ASC 605 Basis) Compared to Six Months Ended September 30, 2018

Solutions Revenue

Solutions revenue increased $8.7 million for the six months ended September 30, 2019, compared with the same period in the prior year. Solutions revenue for the six months ended September 30, 2019 was generally affected the continuation of trends described in the discussion of results of operations for the three months ended September 30, 2019. In addition, the comparison to the prior year period was discretely affected by the sale of the Joint Venture’s extended care business in July 2018.

Expenses

Expenses were affected by similar items outlined in the discussion of results for the three months ended September 30, 2019.

⁽¹⁾	Includes inter-segment revenue

Revenue and Adjusted EBITDA for the six months ended September 30, 2019 for all three segments were affected by similar trends outlined in the discussion of results for the three months ended September 30, 2019. The increases in revenue and Adjusted EBITDA for Software and Analytics were partially offset by the divestiture of the extended care business, which contributed revenue of $9.2 million and Adjusted EBITDA of $1.5 million in the six months ended September 30, 2018.

Significant Changes in Assets and Liabilities

Within the Joint Venture’s network solutions business, the Joint Venture regularly receives funds from certain pharmaceutical industry participants in advance of its obligation to remit these funds to participating retail pharmacies. Such funds are not restricted; however, these funds are generally paid out in satisfaction of the processing obligations within three business days of their receipt. At the time of receipt, the Joint Venture records a corresponding liability within accrued expenses on its consolidated balance sheets. At September 30, 2019, the Joint Venture reported $20.3 million of such pass-through payment obligations which were subsequently paid in the first week of October 2019. At March 31, 2019, the Joint Venture reported $7.4 million of such pass-through payment obligations.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Overview

The Joint Venture’s principal sources of liquidity are cash flows provided by operating activities, cash and cash equivalents on hand, and potential funds available under its Revolving Credit Facility. The Joint Venture’s principal uses of liquidity are working capital, capital expenditures, debt service, business acquisitions and other general corporate purposes. The Joint Venture anticipates its cash on hand, cash generated from operations, and funds available under the Revolving Credit Facility will be sufficient to fund its planned capital expenditures, debt service obligations, business acquisitions and operating needs. The Joint Venture may, however, elect to raise funds through debt or equity financing in the future to fund significant investments or acquisitions that are consistent with its growth strategy.

Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash totaled $73.0 million and $48.9 million at September 30, 2019 and March 31, 2019, respectively, of which $23.7 million and $28.1 million was held outside the United States. As of September 30, 2019, no amounts had been drawn under the senior secured revolving line of credit and the Joint Venture could have borrowed up to the additional $779.9 million available. The Joint Venture also has the ability to borrow up to an additional $1,080.0 million, or such amount that the senior secured net leverage ratio does not exceed 4.9 to 1.0, whichever is greater, under the Senior Secured Credit Facilities, subject to certain additional conditions and commitments by existing or new lenders to fund any additional borrowings.

The balance retained in cash and cash equivalents is consistent with the Joint Venture’s short-term cash needs and investment objectives. The Joint Venture may be required to make additional principal payments on the Term Loan Facility based on excess cash flows of the prior year, as defined in the credit agreement governing the Term Loan Facility.

Net change in cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash	$	24.1		$	158.0			(133.9	)		(84.7	)%

Operating Activities

Cash provided by operating activities is primarily affected by operating income, including the impact of debt service payments, integration related costs and the timing of collections and related disbursements. Cash provided by operating activities includes $12.9 million and $156.1 million as a source of cash related to pass-through funds for the six months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

Investing Activities

Cash used in investing activities primarily reflects routine capital expenditures related to purchase of property and equipment and the development of software, as well as expenditures related to significant software development efforts necessary to integrate the contributed businesses in both periods. Cash provided by investing activities in the six months ended September 30, 2018 was primarily impacted by the proceeds from the sale of the extended care business.

Financing Activities

Cash used in financing activities reflects cash payments under the Term Loan Facility, receipts under the Joint Venture’s interest rate cap agreements, and payments for deferred financing obligations. Cash used in financing activities was primarily impacted by the proceeds from the initial public offering and resulting increased payments under the Term Loan Facility in the six months ended September 30, 2019.

Capital Expenditures

The Joint Venture incurs capital expenditures to grow its business by developing new and enhanced capabilities, to increase the effectiveness and efficiency of the organization and to reduce risks. The Joint Venture incurs capital expenditures for product development, disaster recovery, security enhancements, regulatory compliance and the replacement and upgrade of existing equipment at the end of its useful life.

Debt

Senior Credit Facilities and Senior Notes

In March 2017, the Joint Venture entered into the $5,100 million term loan facility (the “Term Loan Facility”), and a $500 million revolving credit facility (as amended in July 2019 to increase the maximum amount that can be borrowed to $785 million, the “Revolving Credit Facility” and, together with the Term Loan Facility, the “Senior Secured Credit Facilities”). Additionally, the Joint Venture issued $1,000 million of 5.75% senior notes due 2025 (the “Senior Notes”). No amounts have been drawn against the Revolving Credit Facility as of September 30, 2019.

The Joint Venture used the initial public offering proceeds received from Change Healthcare Inc. to repay $805,000 of its indebtedness under the Term Loan Facility without penalty in July 2019. The Joint Venture repaid an additional $85,000 of its indebtedness under the Term Loan Facility without penalty during the three months ended September 30, 2019 for a total paydown of $890,000.

In July 2019, the Joint Venture amended the Revolving Credit Facility, the primary effects of which were to increase the maximum amount that can be borrowed from $500 million to $785 million and to extend the maturity date until July 3, 2024. In the event that the outstanding balance under the Term Loan Facility exceeds $1,100 million on December 1, 2023, however, amounts due, if any, under the Revolving Facility become due and payable on December 1, 2023.

Tangible Equity Units

In July 2019, the Joint Venture issued a debt arrangement to Change Healthcare Inc. on terms that substantially mirror the economics of the amortizing note component of the Change Healthcare Inc. TEUs. The Joint Venture agreed to pay Change Healthcare Inc. an aggregate principal amount of $47,367 in quarterly installments of principal and interest (5.5% per year) on March 30, June 30, September 30, and December 30 of each year through June 30, 2022.

Hedges

From time to time, the Joint Venture executes interest rate cap agreements with various counterparties that effectively cap its LIBOR exposure on a portion of its existing Term Loan Facility or similar replacement debt. The following table summarizes the terms of the Joint Venture’s interest rate cap agreements at September 30, 2019.


Effective Date	Expiration Date	Notional Amount		Receive LIBOR Exceeding ⁽¹⁾			Pay Fixed Rate
March 31, 2017	March 31, 2020	$	650,000		1.25	%		0.56	%
March 31, 2017	March 31, 2020	$	750,000		1.00	%		0.82	%
August 31, 2018	March 31, 2020	$	500,000		1.00	%		1.82	%
March 31, 2020	December 31, 2021	$	1,500,000		1.00	%		1.82	%

⁽¹⁾	All based on 1-month LIBOR, except the $650,000 tranche which receives based on 3-month LIBOR.

The interest rate caps are recorded on the balance sheet at fair value. Changes in the fair value of the interest rate cap agreements are recorded in other comprehensive income.

In accordance with ASC 815, the fair value of the interest rate caps at inception is reclassified from other comprehensive income to interest expense in the same period the interest expense on the underlying hedged debt impacts earnings. Any payments the Joint Venture receives to the extent LIBOR exceeds the specified cap rate is also reclassified from other comprehensive income to interest expense in the period received.

In July 2017, the Financial Conduct Authority (the authority that regulates LIBOR) announced it intends to stop compelling banks to submit rates for the calculation of LIBOR after 2021. The Alternative Reference Rates Committee (“ARRC”) has proposed that the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) is the rate that represents best practice as the alternative to USD-LIBOR for use in derivatives and other financial contracts that are currently indexed to USD-LIBOR. ARRC has proposed a paced market transition plan to SOFR from USD-LIBOR and organizations are currently working on industry wide and company specific transition plans as it relates to derivatives and cash markets exposed to USD-LIBOR. The Joint Venture has material contracts that are indexed to USD-LIBOR and is monitoring this activity and evaluating the related risks.

Effect of Certain Debt Covenants

A breach of any of the covenants under the agreements governing the Joint Venture’s debt could limit its ability to borrow funds under the Term Loan Facility and could result in a default under the Term Loan Facility. Upon the occurrence of an event of default under the Term Loan Facility, the lenders could elect to declare all amounts then outstanding to be immediately due and payable, and the lenders could terminate all commitments to extend further credit. If the Joint Venture were unable to repay the amounts declared due, the lenders could proceed against any collateral granted to them to secure that indebtedness.

With certain exceptions, the Term Loan Facility obligations are secured by a first-priority security interest in substantially all of the assets of the Joint Venture, including its investment in subsidiaries. The Term Loan Facility contains various restrictions and nonfinancial covenants, along with a senior secured net leverage ratio test. The nonfinancial covenants include restrictions on dividends, investments, dispositions, future borrowings and other specified payments, as well as additional reporting and disclosure requirements. The senior secured net leverage test must be met as a condition to incur additional indebtedness, but otherwise is applicable only to the extent that amounts drawn exceed 35% of the Revolving Credit Facility at the end of any fiscal quarter. As of September 30, 2019, the Joint Venture was in compliance with all debt covenants.

The Joint Venture’s ability to meet its liquidity needs depends on its subsidiaries’ earnings and cash flows, the terms of the Joint Venture and its subsidiaries’ indebtedness, and other contractual restrictions. Except for certain permitted distributions, the Joint Venture generally is not permitted to make any distribution to its members.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of September 30, 2019, the Joint Venture had no off-balance sheet arrangements.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

See Exhibit 99.1, “Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements,” Note 2, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies,” for information about recent accounting pronouncements and the potential impact on the Joint Venture’s consolidated financial statements.

Critical Accounting Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts and related disclosures. The Joint Venture considers an accounting estimate to be critical if:

•

it requires assumptions to be made that were uncertain at the time the estimate was made; and

•

changes in the estimate or different estimates that could have been made could have a material impact on our consolidated results of operations and financial condition.

The Joint Venture believes the current assumptions and other considerations used to estimate amounts reflected in its consolidated financial statements are appropriate. However, if actual experience differs from the assumptions and other considerations used in estimating amounts reflected in our consolidated financial statements, the resulting changes could have a material adverse effect on the Joint Venture’s consolidated results of operations and financial condition.

Revenue Recognition

In April 2019, the Joint Venture adopted Accounting Standards Codification ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which replaced most prior general and industry specific revenue recognition guidance with a principles-based comprehensive revenue recognition framework. Under this revised framework, a company recognizes revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods and services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods and services.

The Joint Venture generates most of its solutions revenue by using technology solutions (generally Software as a Service (“SaaS”)) to provide services to its customers that automate and simplify business and administrative functions for payers, providers, pharmacies, and channel partners and through the licensing of software, software systems (consisting of software, hardware and maintenance support) and content.

The Joint Venture recognizes revenue when the customer obtains control of the good or service through the Joint Venture satisfying a performance obligation by transferring the promised good or service to the customer.

Principal Revenue Generating Products and Services

Content license subscriptions and time-based software—The Joint Venture’s content license subscriptions and time-based software arrangements provide a license to use a software for a specified period of time. At the end of the contractual period, the customer either renews the license for an additional term or ceases to use the software. Software licenses are typically delivered to the customer with functionality that the customer can benefit from the software on its own or together with readily available resources. As contracts for these solutions generally do not price individual components separately, the Joint Venture allocates the transaction price to the license and ongoing support performance obligations based on standalone selling price (“SSP”), primarily determined by historical value relationships between licenses and ongoing support and updates. Revenue allocated to content license subscriptions and time-based software license agreements is generally recognized at the point-in-time of delivery of the license or the content update upon transfer of control of the underlying license to the customer. Generally, software implementation fees are recognized over the implementation period through an input measure of progress method. Revenue allocated to maintenance and support is recognized ratably over the period covered by the agreements, as passage of time represents a faithful depiction of the transfer of these services. In some cases, software arrangements provide licenses to several software applications that are highly integrated with the implementation services and software updates and cannot function separately. The bundle is a single performance obligation since the individually promised goods and services are not distinct in the context of the contract because the related implementation services significantly modify and customize the software and the updates provided to the integrated software solution are critical to the software’s utility. The related revenue is recognized on a straight-line basis, ratably over the contractual term due to the frequency and criticality of the updates throughout the license period.

Contingent fee services—The Joint Venture provides services to customers in which the transaction price is contingent on future occurrences, such as savings generated or amounts collected on behalf of its customers through the delivery of its services. In some cases, the Joint Venture performs services in advance of invoicing the customer, thereby creating a contract asset. Revenue in these arrangements is estimated and constrained until the Joint Venture determines that it is probable that a significant revenue reversal will not occur, and variable consideration is allocated to the performance obligation for which the Joint Venture earns a contingent fee.

Perpetual software licenses—The Joint Venture’s perpetual software arrangements provide a license for a customer to use software in perpetuity. Software licenses are typically delivered to the customer with functionality from which the customer can benefit from the license on its own or together with readily available resources. Perpetual software arrangements are recognized at the time of delivery or through an input measure of progress method over the installation period if the arrangements require significant production or modification or customization of the software. Contracts accounted for through an input measure of progress method are generally measured based on the ratio of labor hours incurred to date to total estimated labor hours to be incurred. Software implementation fees are recognized as the work is performed or under the input method for perpetual software. Hardware revenues are generally recognized upon delivery. Maintenance is recognized ratably over the term of the agreement as passage of time represents a faithful depiction of the transfer of these services.

Professional services—The Joint Venture provides training and consulting services to its customers, and the services may be fixed fee or time and materials based. Consulting services that fall outside of the standard implementation services vary depending on the scope and complexity of the service requested by the customer. Consulting services are deemed to be capable of being distinct from other products and services, and the services are satisfied either at a point of time or over time based on delivery. Training services are usually provided as an optional service to enhance the customer’s experience with a software product or provides additional education surrounding the general topic of the solution. Training services are capable of being distinct from other products and services. The Joint Venture treats training services as a distinct performance obligation, and they are satisfied at a point of time.

Transaction processing services—The Joint Venture provides transaction processing (such as claims processing) services to hospitals, pharmacies and health systems via a cloud-based (SaaS) platform. The promised service is to stand ready to process transactions for our customers over the contractual period on an as needed basis. The revenue related to these services is recognized over time as the transactions are processed, and the revenue is recognized over the individual days in which the services are performed. Any fixed annual fees and implementation fees are recognized ratably over the contract period.

Hosted solutions and software as a service (“SaaS”)—The Joint Venture enters into arrangements whereby the Joint Venture provides the customer access to a Joint Venture-owned software solution, which are generally marketed under annual and multi-year arrangements. The customer is only provided “access” (not a license) to the software application. In these arrangements, the customer does not purchase equipment nor does the customer take physical possession of the software. The related revenue is recognized ratably over the contracted term. For fixed fee arrangements, revenue recognition begins after set-up and implementation are complete. For per-transaction fee arrangements, revenue is recognized as transactions are processed beginning on the service start date.

Contract Balances

The Joint Venture’s payment terms vary by customer and product type. For certain products or services, the Joint Venture requires upfront payments before control of the product or service has transferred to the customer. For other products and services, the Joint Venture invoices the customer in arrears after providing the products or services. In addition, for certain contingent fee services, customers are billed in arrears, typically based upon a percentage of collections the Joint Venture makes on the customer’s behalf.

Under the new revenue standard, the Joint Venture generally recognizes a contract asset when revenue is recognized in advance of invoicing on a customer contract, unless the right to payment for that revenue is unconditional (i.e. requiring no further performance and only the passage of time). If a right to payment is determined to meet the criteria to be considered ‘unconditional’, then the Joint Venture will recognize a receivable.

There were no impairment losses recognized on accounts receivable or contract assets in the three and six months ended September 30, 2019.

The Joint Venture records deferred revenues when billings or payments are received from customers in advance of its performance. Deferred revenue is generally recognized when transfer of control to customers occurs. The deferred revenue balance is driven by multiple factors, including the frequency of renewals, invoice timing, and invoice duration. As of September 30, 2019, the Joint Venture expects 94% of the deferred revenue balance to be recognized in one year or less, and approximately $328 million of the beginning period balance was recognized during the three months ended September 30, 2019.

Costs to Obtain or Fulfill a Contract

Sales commissions and certain other incentive payments (e.g., bonuses that are contingent solely on obtaining a contract or a pool of contracts) earned by the Joint Venture’s sales organization are capitalized as incremental costs to obtain a contract. The Joint Venture typically does not offer commissions on contract renewals. Decremented commissions upon renewal (i.e., non-commensurate with initial commissions) are offered to the Joint Venture’s sales associates for certain customers and are not material. Under ASC 606, all commissions and other qualifying incentive payments capitalized are amortized over an expected period of benefit defined as the initial contract term plus anticipated renewals. In contrast, under ASC 605 these capitalized costs were amortized over the specific

revenue contract terms, which are typically 12 to 60 months. In making the significant judgment in determining the appropriate period of benefit, the Joint Venture evaluated both qualitative and quantitative factors such as the expected customer relationship period and technology obsolescence. In addition, prior to solution go-live, the Joint Venture incurs certain contract fulfillment costs primarily related to SaaS setup for our clients. These costs are capitalized to the extent they are directly related to a contract, are recoverable, and create a resource used to deliver the Joint Venture’s SaaS services. Capitalized costs to fulfill a contract are amortized over the expected period of benefit.

At September 30, 2019, the Joint Venture had capitalized costs to obtain a contract of $12.4 million in prepaid and other current assets and $67.4 million in other noncurrent assets. During the three and six months ended September 30, 2019, the Joint Venture recognized $5.1 million and $9.2 million, respectively, of amortization expense related to such capitalized costs, which is included in the total operating expenses. At September 30, 2019, the Joint Venture had capitalized costs to fulfill a contract of $1.4 million in prepaid and other current assets and $8.6 million in other noncurrent assets. During the three and six months ended September 30, 2019, the Joint Venture recognized $0.3 million and $0.6 million, respectively, of amortization expense related to such capitalized costs, which is included in cost of operations.

Postage Revenues

Postage revenues are the result of providing delivery services to customers in the Joint Venture’s payment and communication solutions. Postage revenues are generally billed as a pass-through cost to the Joint Venture’s customers. The service is part of a combined performance obligation with the printing and handling services provided to the customer because the postage services are not distinct within the context of the contract. The Joint Venture presents Postage Revenue separately from Solutions Revenue on the consolidated statements of operation as it makes the financial statements more informative for the users. The revenue related to the combined performance obligation of the postage, printing, and handling service is recognized as the transactions are processed, and the revenue is recognized over the individual days in which the services are performed.

Arrangements with Multiple Performance Obligations

The Joint Venture engages in customer arrangements which may include multiple performance obligations, such as any combination of software, hardware, implementation, SaaS-based offerings, consulting services, or maintenance services. For such arrangements, the Joint Venture allocates revenues to each performance obligation on a relative standalone selling price basis. A performance obligation’s standalone selling price is determined based on the directly observable prices charged to customers when available or estimated using other methods such as the adjusted market assessment approach, the expected cost plus a margin approach, or other approaches in cases where distinct performance obligations are not sold separately but instead sold at a bundled price. For performance obligations with historical pricing that is highly variable, the residual approach is used. Such instances primarily relate to the Joint Venture’s perpetual software arrangements in which the Joint Venture sells the same products to different customers for a broad range of amounts.

Remaining Performance Obligations

The aggregate amount of transaction price allocated to performance obligations that are unsatisfied (or partially unsatisfied) for executed contracts includes deferred revenue and other revenue yet to be recognized from non-cancellable contracts. As of September 30, 2019, the Joint Venture’s total remaining performance obligations approximated $1.4 billion, of which approximately 52% is expected to be recognized over the next twelve months, and the remaining 48% thereafter.

In this balance, the Joint Venture does not include the value of unsatisfied performance obligations related to those contracts for which it recognizes revenue at the amount for which it has the right to invoice for services performed. Additionally, this balance does not include revenue related to performance obligations that are part of a contract with an original expected duration of one year or less. Lastly, this balance does not include variable consideration allocated to the individual goods or services in a series of distinct goods or services that are substantially the same and that have the same pattern of transfer to the customer. Examples includes variable fees associated with transaction processing and contingent fee services.

Disaggregated Revenue

The Joint Venture disaggregates the revenue from contracts with customers by operating segment as it believes doing so best depicts how the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of the Joint Venture’s revenue are affected by economic factors. See Note 9 in the Joint Venture unaudited financial statements included in Exhibit 99.1, “Segment Reporting” for the total revenue disaggregated by operating segment for the six months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018.

The Joint Venture’s total revenue by disaggregated revenue source was generally consistent for each reportable segment for the three and six months ended September 30, 2019 compared with the corresponding periods in 2018.

Customer Incentives

Certain customers, which include the Joint Venture’s channel partners, may receive cash-based incentives or rebates based on actual sales and achievement of a cumulative level of sales, which are accounted for as variable consideration. The Joint Venture considers these amounts to be consideration payable to the customer, and therefore, the Joint Venture estimates these amounts based on the expected amount to be provided to customers and reduces the transaction price accordingly.

Practical Expedients and Exemptions

The Joint Venture has elected to utilize either the right to invoice practical expedient or the series-based variable consideration allocation framework for most transaction processing services not subject to contingencies. The Joint Venture also has elected to exclude sales taxes and other similar taxes from the measurement of the transaction price in contracts with customers. Therefore, revenue is recognized net of such taxes.

In certain customer arrangements with customers, the Joint Venture determined there are certain promised goods or services which are immaterial in the context of the contract from both a quantitative and qualitative perspective, and therefore, the goods and services are disregarded when assessing the performance obligations in the customer arrangement.

The Joint Venture has elected to apply the significant financing practical expedient, and as a result, the Joint Venture will not adjust the promised amount of consideration in a customer contract for the effects of a significant financing component when the period of time between when the Joint Venture transfers a promised good or service to a customer and when the customer pays for the good or service will be one year or less.

Apart from the adoption of ASC 606, the Joint Venture believes there have been no other significant changes during the six months ended September 30, 2019 to the items we previously disclosed as our critical accounting estimates in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations”.

ITEM 3.

QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Change Healthcare Inc.

Change Healthcare Inc. holds an equity method investment in the LLC Units of the Joint Venture as well as, following the consummation of the offering of TEUs on July 1, 2019, investments in the amortizing notes and prepaid forward purchase contracts components of the TEUs issued by the Joint Venture. In the case of the equity method investment in the Joint Venture, Change Healthcare Inc. is only exposed to changes in the fair value of the investment to the extent that the changes in fair value are so significant and long-lasting that they represented an other than temporary impairment of the investment. In the case of the investments in the amortizing note and prepaid forward purchase contracts components of the TEUs, however, such investments are required to be remeasured to their respective fair value each quarter with the changes in those values affecting earnings and other comprehensive income of Change Healthcare Inc.

Change Healthcare LLC

The Joint Venture has interest rate risk primarily related to borrowings under the Senior Secured Credit Facilities. Borrowings under the Senior Secured Credit Facilities bear interest at a rate equal to, at the Joint Venture’s option, either (i) LIBOR for the relevant interest period, adjusted for statutory reserve requirements (which is subject, in the case of the Term Loan Facility, to a floor of 1.00% per annum and, in the case of the Revolving Credit Facility, to a floor of 0.00% per annum), plus an applicable margin or (ii) a base rate equal to the highest of (a) the rate of interest in effect as publicly announced by the administrative agent as its prime rate, (b) the federal funds effective rate plus 0.50% and (c) adjusted LIBOR for an interest period of one month plus 1.00% (which may be subject, solely in the case of the Term Loan Facility, to a floor of 2.00% per annum), in each case, plus an applicable margin.

As of September 30, 2019, the Joint Venture had borrowings of $3,993.3 million (before unamortized debt discount) under the Senior Secured Credit Facilities. As of September 30, 2019, the LIBOR-based interest rate on the Term Loan Facility and Revolving Credit Facility were each LIBOR plus 2.5%.

The Joint Venture manages economic risks, including interest rate, liquidity and credit risk, primarily by managing the amount, sources and duration of our debt funding and the use of derivative financial instruments. Specifically, the Joint Venture enters into interest rate cap agreements to manage exposures that arise from business activities that result in the receipt or payment of future known and uncertain cash amounts, the value of which are determined by interest rates. The Joint Venture’s interest rate cap agreements are used to manage differences in the amount, timing and duration of our known or expected cash receipts and our known or expected cash payments principally related to our borrowings. As of September 30, 2019, the Joint Venture’s outstanding interest rate cap agreements were each designated as cash flow hedges of interest rate risk and were determined to be highly effective.

A change in interest rates on variable rate debt may impact the Joint Venture’s pretax earnings and cash flows. Based on the Joint Venture’s outstanding debt as of September 30, 2019, and assuming that its mix of debt instruments, derivative financial instruments and other variables remain the same, the annualized effect of a one percentage point change in variable interest rates would have an annualized pretax impact on the Joint Venture’s earnings and cash flows of approximately $20.9 million.

In the future, in order to manage the Joint Venture’s interest rate risk, it may refinance its existing debt, enter into additional interest rate cap agreements, modify its existing interest rate cap agreements or make changes that may impact its ability to treat its interest rate cap agreements as a cash flow hedge. However, the Joint Venture does not intend or expect to enter into derivative or interest rate cap agreement transactions for speculative purposes.

ITEM 4.

CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Change Healthcare Inc.’s management, with the participation of its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of its disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. The term “disclosure controls and procedures” as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) means controls and other procedures of a company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely discussions regarding required disclosures.

Management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance of achieving their desired control objectives. Based on the evaluation of Change Healthcare Inc.’s disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report, its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of such date, its disclosure controls and procedures were effective at a reasonable assurance level.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

During the quarter covered by this report, there have been no changes in Change Healthcare Inc.’s internal controls over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, its internal controls over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1.

LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

Change Healthcare Inc.

In the normal course of business, Change Healthcare Inc. may become subject to various claims and legal proceedings. As of September 30, 2019, Change Healthcare Inc. was not involved in any material pending legal proceedings.

Change Healthcare LLC

The Joint Venture is subject to various claims with customers and vendors, pending and potential legal actions for damages, investigations relating to governmental laws and regulations and other matters arising out of the normal conduct of its business.

From time to time, the Joint Venture receives subpoenas or requests for information from various government agencies. The Joint Venture generally responds to such subpoenas and requests in a cooperative, thorough and timely manner. These responses sometimes require time and effort and can result in considerable costs being incurred by the Joint Venture. Such subpoenas and requests also can lead to the assertion of claims or the commencement of civil or criminal legal proceedings against the Joint Venture and other members of the health care industry, as well as to settlements.

Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Joint Venture is involved in various claims and legal proceedings. While the ultimate resolution of these matters has yet to be determined, the Joint Venture does not believe that it is reasonably possible that their outcomes will have a material adverse effect on the Joint Venture’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or liquidity.

To reduce their exposure to an unexpected significant monetary award resulting from an adverse judicial decision, both Change Healthcare Inc. and Change Healthcare LLC maintain insurance that they believe is appropriate and adequate based on historical experience. Both Change Healthcare Inc. and Change Healthcare LLC advise their insurance carriers of any claims, threatened or pending, against them in the course of litigation and generally receives a reservation of rights letter from the carriers when such claims exceed applicable deductibles.

ITEM 1A.
