Based in Atlanta, Georgia, Crawford & Company ("Crawford" or "the Company") is the world's largest publicly listed independent provider of claims management and outsourcing solutions to the risk management and insurance industry, as well as to self-insured entities, with an expansive global network serving clients in more than 70 countries.

Shares of the Company's two classes of common stock are traded on the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE") under the symbols CRD-A and CRD-B, respectively. The Company's two classes of stock are substantially identical, except with respect to voting rights and the Company's ability to pay greater cash dividends on the non-voting Class A Common Stock than on the voting Class B Common Stock, subject to certain limitations. In addition, with respect to mergers or similar transactions, holders of Class A Common Stock must receive the same type and amount of consideration as holders of Class B Common Stock, unless different consideration is approved by the holders of 75% of the Class A Common Stock, voting as a class. The Company's website is www.crawco.com. The information contained on, or hyperlinked from, the Company's website is not a part of, and is not incorporated by reference into, this report.

1. Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X promulgated by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"). Accordingly, these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. The Company's operating results for the three months and nine months ended and financial position as of September 30, 2019 are not necessarily indicative of the results or financial position that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2019 or for other future periods. The financial results from the Company's operations outside of the U.S., Canada, the Caribbean, and certain subsidiaries in the Philippines, are reported and consolidated on a two-month delayed basis (fiscal year-end of October 31) as permitted by GAAP in order to provide sufficient time for accumulation of their results.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring accruals and adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. There have been no material changes to our significant accounting policies and estimates from those disclosed in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018 other than as disclosed herein.

Certain prior period amounts among the segments have been reclassified to conform to the current presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on the Company's reported consolidated results. Significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

The Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet information presented herein as of December 31, 2018 has been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements as of that date, but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.

The Company consolidates the liabilities of its deferred compensation plan and the related assets, which are held in a rabbi trust and also considered a variable interest entity ("VIE") of the Company. The rabbi trust was created to fund the liabilities of the Company's deferred compensation plan. The Company is considered the primary beneficiary of the rabbi trust because the Company directs the activities of the trust and can use the assets of the trust to satisfy the liabilities of the Company's deferred compensation plan. At September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the liabilities of the deferred compensation plan were $8,790,000 and $8,914,000, respectively, which represented obligations of the Company rather than of the rabbi trust, and the values of the assets held in the related rabbi trust were $16,634,000 and $16,402,000, respectively. These liabilities and assets are included in "Other noncurrent liabilities" and "Other noncurrent assets," respectively, on the Company's unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

The Company owns 51% of the capital stock of Lloyd Warwick International Limited ("LWI"). The Company has also agreed to provide financial support to LWI of up to approximately $10,000,000. Because of this controlling financial interest, and because Crawford has the obligation to absorb certain of LWI's losses through the additional financial support that LWI may require, LWI is considered a VIE of the Company. LWI also does not meet the business scope exception, as Crawford provides more than half of its financial support, and because LWI lacks sufficient equity at risk to permit it to carry on its activities without this additional financial support. Creditors of LWI have no recourse to Crawford's general credit. Accordingly, Crawford is considered the primary beneficiary and consolidates LWI. Total assets and liabilities of LWI as of September 30, 2019 were $12,468,000 and $8,261,000, respectively. Total assets and liabilities of LWI as of December 31, 2018 were $12,232,000 and $10,423,000, respectively. Included in LWI's total liabilities is a loan from Crawford of $4,217,000 and $6,934,000 as of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively.

Noncontrolling interests represent the minority shareholders' share of the net income or loss and shareholders' investment in consolidated subsidiaries. Noncontrolling interests are presented as a component of shareholders' investment in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and reflect the initial fair value of these investments by noncontrolling shareholders, along with their proportionate share of the income or loss of the subsidiaries, less any dividends or distributions. Noncontrolling interests that are redeemable at the option of the holder are presented outside of shareholders' investment as "Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests" and are recorded at either their initial fair value plus any profits or losses or estimated redemption value if an adjustment is required.

2. Recently Issued Accounting Standards

Adoption of New Accounting Standards

Financial Accounting for Leases

In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2016-02, "Financial Accounting for Leases" together with its subsequent related amendments in 2018 and 2019, collectively referred to as Topic 842. Under Topic 842, a lessee is required to recognize assets and liabilities for leases with lease terms of more than 12 months. Topic 842 also requires disclosures to help investors and other financial statement users better understand the amount, timing, and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. These disclosures include qualitative and quantitative requirements, providing additional information about the amounts recorded in the financial statements. The Company adopted Topic 842 as of January 1, 2019 ("transition date") using the modified retrospective approach and as a result did not adjust the comparative period financial information or make the Topic 842 required lease disclosures for periods before the transition date. The Company elected the package of practical expedients to not reassess prior conclusions related to contracts containing leases, lease classification, lease term and initial direct costs as well as the practical expedient to choose not to separate nonlease components from lease components and instead account for each as a single lease component for all classes of its assets. As a result of adopting Topic 842, the Company recognized operating lease right-of-use assets of $107.3 million and current and noncurrent operating lease liabilities of $33.0 million and $89.3 million, respectively, and reversed deferred rents of $15.0 million on its unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The adoption of Topic 842 resulted in no material impact to the Company's results of operations or cash flows and did not impact the Company's compliance with the financial covenants under its credit facility. See Note 4, "Lease Commitments" for further discussion on the Company's leases.

Reclassification of Certain Tax Effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income

In February 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-02, "Income Statement-Reporting Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Reclassification of Certain Tax Effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income." This update allows companies to reclassify stranded tax effects resulting from the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act ("Tax Act"), from accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) to retained earnings. This update is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods thereafter. The Company adopted this ASU for the period ended March 31, 2019 and elected not to reclassify the income tax effects of the Tax Act from accumulated other comprehensive loss to retained earnings.

Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, "Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments" together with its subsequent related amendments in 2018 and 2019, collectively referred to as Topic 326. Topic 326 replaces the incurred loss methodology to record credit losses with a methodology that reflects the expected credit losses for financial assets not accounted for at fair value, including trade receivables, with gains and losses recognized through income. The expected credit loss methodology incorporates past experience, current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts affecting collectability of these assets. Topic 326 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company plans to adopt Topic 326 on January 1, 2020 using a modified retrospective approach. The Company is currently evaluating the effect Topic 326 may have on its results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.

Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13, “Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820).” This update amends the disclosure requirements on fair value measurements in Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement, by removing and modifying certain disclosure requirements and adding others. This update removes the requirement to disclose the amount of and reasons for transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, the policy for timing of transfers between levels and the valuation processes for Level 3 fair value measurements. This update requires the disclosure of the changes in unrealized gains and losses for the period included in other comprehensive income for recurring Level 3 fair value measurements held at the end of the reporting period and the range and weighted average of significant unobservable inputs used to develop Level 3 fair value measurements. Further, this update clarifies that transfers into and out of Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy and purchases and issues of Level 3 assets and liabilities are required to be disclosed. These updates are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods thereafter. Early adoption is permitted and early adoption of any removed or modified disclosures upon issuance of this update is permitted while delaying adoption of the additional disclosures until the effective date. The Company is currently evaluating the effect this ASU will have on its Fair Value Measurements disclosure.

Compensation-Retirement Benefits: Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Defined Benefit Plans

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-14, "Compensation-Retirement Benefits-Defined Benefit Plans-General (Subtopic 715-20)." This update modifies the disclosure requirements for employers that sponsor defined benefit pension or other postretirement plans. This update removes certain disclosure requirements including, but not limited to, the amounts in accumulated other comprehensive income expected to be recognized as components of net periodic benefit cost over the next fiscal year and the amount and timing of plan assets expected to be returned to the employer. This update requires the disclosure of the weighted-average interest crediting rates for cash balance plans and other plans with promised interest crediting rates and an explanation of the reasons for significant gains and losses related to changes in the benefit obligation for the period. This update also clarifies requirements for entities that provide aggregate disclosures for two or more plans. The update is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2020, and interim periods thereafter. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the effect this ASU will have on its Retirement Plans disclosure.

Customer's Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement That is a Service Contract

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-15, "Intangibles-Goodwill and Other-Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40).” This update aligns the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred in a hosting arrangement that is a service contract with the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred to develop or obtain internal-use software, including hosting arrangements that include an internal-use software license. This update also requires the entity (customer) to expense the capitalized implementation costs of a hosting arrangement that is a service contract over the term of the hosting arrangement. Further, this update requires the presentation of the expense in the statement of income, the presentation of the costs on the statement of financial position and the classification of payments in the statement of cash flows related to capitalized implementation costs to be treated the same as the fees of the associated hosting arrangement. The update is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods thereafter. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the effect this ASU will have on its results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.

3. Revenue Recognition

As of January 1, 2018, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 606 using the modified retrospective method for those contracts which were not substantially completed as of the transition date. The reported results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 reflect the application of ASC 606.

Revenue from Contracts with Customers

Revenues are recognized when control of the promised services is transferred to the Company's customers in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for those services. Revenues are recognized net of any sales, use or value added taxes collected from customers, which are subsequently remitted to governmental authorities. As the Company completes its performance obligations which are identified below, it has an unconditional right to consideration as outlined in the Company's contracts. Generally, the Company's accounts receivable are expected to be collected in less than two months, in accordance with the underlying payment terms.

The Company's Crawford Claims Solutions segment generates revenue for adjusting services provided to insurance companies and self-insured entities related to property, casualty and catastrophe losses caused by physical damage to commercial and residential real property and certain types of personal property. The Company charges on a fee-per-claim basis for each optional purchase of the claims management services exercised by its customer. Revenue is recognized over time as the performance obligations are satisfied through the effort expended to research, investigate, evaluate, document and report the claim and control of these services is transferred to the customer. Revenue is recognized based on historical claim closure rates and claim type for fixed fee claims applied utilizing a portfolio approach based on time elapsed for these claims. For claims billed on a time and expense incurred basis, which are considered variable consideration, the Company recognizes revenue at the amount in which it has the right to invoice for services performed. These methods of revenue recognition are the most accurate depiction of the transfer of the claims management services to the customer. The Company also generates revenue by providing on-demand inspection, verification and other task specific field services for businesses and consumers. Task assignment services are single optional purchase performance obligations which are generally satisfied at a point in time when the control of the service is transferred to the customer. Therefore, revenue is recognized when the customer receives the service requested.

The following table presents Crawford Claims Solutions revenues before reimbursements disaggregated by geography for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018:

	Three Months Ended				Nine Months Ended

The Claims Management service line includes Workers' Compensation, Liability, Property and Disability Claims Management. This service line also performs additional services such as Accident & Health claims programs, including Affinity type claims, and disability and leave management services. Each claim referred by the customer is considered an additional optional purchase of claims management services under the agreement with the customer. The transaction price is specified in the contract and is fixed for each service. Revenue is recognized over time as services are provided as the performance obligations are satisfied through the effort expended to research, investigate, evaluate, document, and report the claim and control of these services is transferred to the customer. Revenue is recognized based on historical claim closure rates and claim type applied utilizing a portfolio approach based on time elapsed for these claims as the Company believes this is the most accurate depiction of the transfer of the claims management services to its customer. This service line also provides Risk Management Information Services. For non-claim services, revenue is recognized over time as services are provided and control of these services is transferred to the customer. Revenue is recognized as time elapses as this is the most accurate depiction of the transfer of the service to the customer.

The Company's obligation to manage claims under the Claims Management service line can range from less than one year, on a one- or two-year basis or for the lifetime of the claim. Under certain claims management agreements, the Company receives consideration from a customer at contract inception prior to transferring services to the customer, however, it would begin performing services immediately. The period between a customer’s payment of consideration and the completion of the promised services could be greater than one year. There is no difference between the amount of promised consideration and the cash selling price of the promised services. The fee is billed upfront by the Company in order to provide customers with simplified and predictable ways of purchasing its services and it is customary to invoice service fees when the claim is assigned. The Company considered whether a significant financing component exists and determined that there is not a significant financing component at the contract level.

The Medical Management service line offers case managers who provide administration services by proactively managing medical treatment for claimants while facilitating an understanding of and participation in their rehabilitation process. Revenue for Medical Management services is recognized over time as the performance obligations are satisfied through the effort expended to manage the medical treatment for claimants and control of these services is transferred to the customer. Medical Management services are generally billed based on time incurred, are considered variable consideration, and revenue is recognized at the amount in which the Company has the right to invoice for services performed. This method of revenue recognition is the most accurate depiction of the transfer of the Medical Management service to the customer. Medical bill review services provide an analysis of medical charges for clients’ claims to identify opportunities for savings. Medical bill review services revenues are recognized over time as control of the service is transferred to the customer. Revenue is recognized based upon the transfer of the results of the medical bill review service to the customer as this is the most accurate depiction of the transfer of the service to the customer.

The Company's Crawford Specialty Solutions segment principally generates revenues through its Global Technical Services and Contractor Connection service lines. The Garden City Group business, which was part of Crawford Specialty Solutions, was disposed of as of June 15, 2018. See Note 13, "Disposition of Business Line" for further discussion about this transaction.

The Global Technical Services service line generates revenues for claims management services provided to insurance companies and self-insured entities related to large, complex losses with technical adjusting and industry experts servicing a broad range of industries. Revenue is recognized over time as the performance obligations are satisfied through the effort expended to research, investigate, evaluate, document and report the claim and control of these services is transferred to the customer. Revenue is recognized based on historical claim closure rates and claim type for fixed fee claims, applied utilizing a portfolio approach based on time elapsed for these claims. For claims billed on a time and expense incurred basis, which are considered variable consideration, the Company recognizes revenue at the amount in which it has the right to invoice for services performed. These methods of revenue recognition are the most accurate depiction of the transfer of the claims management services to the customer.

The Contractor Connection service line generates revenue through its independently managed contractor network. Contractor Connection primarily generates revenue by receiving a fee for each project that is sold by its network of contractors. Revenue is recognized at a point in time once the consumer accepts the contractor's proposal as Contractor Connection’s performance obligation of referring projects to its contractors has been completed and the Company is entitled to consideration at that time. The contractor takes control of the service upon the consumer’s acceptance of the contractor’s proposal.

In the normal course of business, the Company's operating segments incur certain out-of-pocket expenses that are thereafter reimbursed by its customers. The Company controls the promised good or service before it is transferred to its customer, therefore it is a principal in the transaction. These out-of-pocket expenses and associated reimbursements are reported on a gross basis within expenses and revenues, respectively, in the Company's unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Arrangements with Multiple Performance Obligations

For claims management services, the Company typically has one performance obligation; however, it also provides the customer with an option to acquire additional services. The Company sells multiple lines of claims processing and different levels of processing depending on the complexity of the claims. The Company typically provides a menu of offerings from which the customer chooses to purchase at its option. The price of each service is separate and distinct and provides a separate and distinct value to the customer. Pricing is consistent for each service irrespective of the other services or quantities requested by the customer. For example, if the Company provides claims processing for both auto and general liability, those services are priced and delivered independently.

Contract Balances

The timing of revenue recognition, billings and cash collections result in billed accounts receivables, contract assets (reported as "Unbilled revenues at estimated billable amounts") and contract liabilities (reported as "Deferred revenues") on the Company’s unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Unbilled revenues is a contract asset for revenue that has been recognized in advance of billing the customer, resulting from professional services delivered that the Company expects and is entitled to receive as consideration under certain contracts. Billing requirements vary by contract but substantially all unbilled revenues are billed within one year.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

When the Company receives consideration from a customer prior to transferring services to the customer under the terms of certain claims management agreements, it records deferred revenues on the Company’s unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, which represents a contract liability. These fixed-fee service agreements typically result from the Crawford TPA Solutions segment and require the Company to handle claims on either a one- or two-year basis, or for the lifetime of the claim. In cases where it handles a claim on a non-lifetime basis, the Company typically receives an additional fee on each anniversary date that the claim remains open. For service agreements where it provides services for the life of the claim, the Company is paid one upfront fee regardless of the duration of the claim. The Company recognizes deferred revenues as revenues as it performs services and transfers control of the services to the customer and satisfies the performance obligation which it determines utilizing a portfolio approach.

The Company's deferred revenues for claims handled for one or two years are not as sensitive to changes in claim closing rates since the performance obligations are satisfied within a fixed length of time. Deferred revenues for lifetime claim handling are more sensitive to changes in claim closing rates since the Company is obligated to handle these claims to conclusion with no additional fees received for long-lived claims. For all fixed fee service agreements, revenues are recognized over the expected service periods by type of claim. Based upon its historical averages, the Company closes approximately 98% of all cases referred to it under lifetime claim service agreements within five years from the date of referral. Also, within that five-year period, the percentage of cases remaining open in any one particular year has remained relatively consistent from period to period. Each quarter the Company evaluates its historical case closing rates by type of claim utilizing a portfolio approach and makes adjustments to deferred revenues as necessary. As a portfolio approach is utilized to recognize deferred revenues, any changes in estimates will impact the timing of revenue recognition and any changes in estimates are recognized in the period in which they are determined.

The table below presents the deferred revenues balance as of January 1, 2019 and the significant activity affecting deferred revenues during the nine months ended September 30, 2019:

As of September 30, 2019, the Company had $92.0 million of remaining performance obligations related to claims and non-claims services in which the price is fixed. Remaining performance obligations consist of deferred revenues as well as certain unbilled receivables that are considered contract assets. The Company expects to recognize approximately 70% of our remaining performance obligations as revenues within one year and the remaining balance thereafter.

Costs to Obtain a Contract

The Company has a sales incentive compensation program where remuneration is based on the revenues recognized in the period and does not represent an incremental cost to the Company which provides a future benefit expected to be longer than one year and would meet the criteria to be capitalized and presented as a contract asset on the Company's unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Practical Expedients Elected

As a practical expedient, the Company does not adjust the consideration in a contract for the effects of a significant financing component it expects, at contract inception, when the period between a customer’s payment of consideration and the transfer of promised services to the customer will be one year or less.

For claims management services that are billed on a time and expense incurred or per unit basis and revenue is recognized over time, the Company recognizes revenue at the amount to which it has the right to invoice for services performed.

The Company does not disclose the value of remaining performance obligations for (i) contracts for which it recognizes revenue at the amount to which it has the right to invoice for services performed, and (ii) contracts with variable consideration allocated entirely to a single performance obligation.

4. Lease Commitments

The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception. The Company's and its subsidiaries' leases include office space, computer equipment, and automobiles under operating and finance leases. These lease agreements have remaining lease terms of 1 to 11 years. Some of these lease agreements include options to extend the leases for up to 5 years, options to terminate the leases within 1 year, rental escalation clauses and periodic adjustments for inflation, all of which are considered in the determination of lease payments. These lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants.

For leases with terms greater than 12 months, the Company records the related right-of-use asset and lease liability at the present value of the fixed lease payments over the term. Variable lease payments are not included in the calculation of the right-of-use asset and lease liability. The Company does not separate nonlease components from lease components and instead accounts for each as a single lease component for all classes of its assets. The Company applies a portfolio approach to effectively account for the right-of-use asset and lease liability for certain equipment leases.

When available, the Company uses the rate implicit in the lease to discount lease payments to present value; however, most of the Company's leases do not provide a readily determinable implicit rate. Therefore, the Company must estimate its incremental borrowing rate to discount the lease payments based on information available at lease commencement.

The Company, as sublessor, subleases certain office space which mostly consists of a two-building office complex in Plantation, Florida in which the terms of the primary lease and the related subleases end in December 2021. Under all of its executed sublease arrangements, the sublessees are obligated to pay the Company sublease payments of $1.1 million during the remainder of 2019, $4.3 million in 2020, $4.2 million in 2021 and $0.2 million in 2022.

The Company's finance leases are not material for the three months or nine months ended or as of September 30, 2019 and are excluded from the disclosures below. The following table presents the lease-related assets and liabilities recorded on the Company's unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets related to its operating leases:

5. Income Taxes

The Company's consolidated effective income tax rate may change periodically due to changes in enacted tax rates, fluctuations in the mix of income earned from the Company's various domestic and international operations, which are subject to income taxes at different rates, the Company's ability to utilize net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards, and amounts related to uncertain income tax positions. The provision for income taxes on consolidated income before income taxes totaled $5.3 million and $1.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. The provision for income taxes on consolidated income before income taxes totaled $11.1 million and $6.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. The overall effective tax rate increased to 36.8% for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared with 31.1% for the 2018 period primarily due to a one-time tax planning benefit in 2018 related to the voluntary contribution of $10.0 million to the Company's U.S. defined benefit pension plan, the impact of the sale of the Garden City Group business (the “GCG Business”) in 2018, and the arbitration and claim settlements in 2019. See Note 13, "Disposition of Business Line" and Note 11, "Commitments and Contingencies" for further discussion of these items.

7. Net Income Attributable to Shareholders of Crawford & Company per Common Share

The Company computes earnings per share of its non-voting Class A Common Stock ("CRD-A") and voting Class B Common Stock ("CRD-B") using the two-class method, which allocates the undistributed earnings in each period to each class on a proportionate basis. The Company's Board of Directors has the right, but not the obligation, to declare higher dividends on the CRD-A shares than on the CRD-B shares, subject to certain limitations. In periods when the dividend is the same for CRD-A and CRD-B or when no dividends are declared or paid to either class, the two-class method generally will yield the same earnings per share for CRD-A and CRD-B. During the first three quarters of 2019 and 2018, the Board of Directors declared a higher dividend on CRD-A than on CRD-B.

The computations of basic net income attributable to shareholders of Crawford & Company per common share were as follows:

9. Fair Value Measurements

The following table presents the Company's assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis and are categorized using the fair value hierarchy:

Liabilities:
Contingent earnout liability (2)	697		—		—		697

⁽¹⁾  The fair values of the money market funds were based on recently quoted market prices and reported transactions in an active marketplace. Money market funds are included in the Company's unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as "Cash and cash equivalents."

⁽²⁾  The contingent earnout liability relates to recent business acquisitions by the Crawford Specialty Solutions operating segment. The fair value of the contingent earnout liability was estimated using internally-prepared revenue projections, which is Level 3 data, with the maximum possible earnout of $1,152,000. As such, the fair value is not expected to vary materially. The fair value of the contingent earnout liability is included in "Other accrued liabilities" and "Other noncurrent liabilities" on the Company's unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, based upon the term of each contingent earnout agreement.

Fair Value Disclosures

There were no transfers of assets between fair value levels during the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2019. The categorization of assets and liabilities within the fair value hierarchy and the measurement techniques are reviewed quarterly. Any transfers between levels are deemed to have occurred at the end of the quarter.

The fair values of accounts receivable, unbilled revenues, accounts payable and short-term borrowings approximate their respective carrying values due to the short-term maturities of the instruments. The interest rate on the Company's variable rate long-term debt resets at least every 90 days; therefore, the recorded value approximates fair value. These assets and liabilities are measured within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

Operating earnings is the primary financial performance measure used by the Company's senior management and chief operating decision maker ("CODM") to evaluate the financial performance of the Company's three operating segments and make resource allocation and certain compensation decisions. The Company believes this measure is useful to investors in that it allows them to evaluate segment operating performance using the same criteria used by the Company's senior management and CODM. Operating earnings will differ from net income computed in accordance with GAAP since operating earnings represent segment earnings before certain unallocated corporate and shared costs and credits, net corporate interest expense, stock option expense, amortization of customer-relationship intangible assets, goodwill and intangible asset impairment charges, restructuring and special charges, arbitration and claim settlements, loss on disposition of business line, income taxes, and net income or loss attributable to noncontrolling interests and redeemable noncontrolling interests.

Segment operating earnings includes allocations of certain corporate and shared costs. If the Company changes its allocation methods or changes the types of costs that are allocated to its threeoperating segments, prior period amounts presented in the current period financial statements are adjusted to conform to the current allocation process.

During the 2019 first quarter, the Company realigned certain operations within Canada from the Crawford Claims Solutions segment to the Crawford Specialty Solutions segment to be consistent with current operating segment responsibilities. Previously reported amounts have been reclassified to reflect these changes. No other changes in operating responsibilities occurred. These transfers are not material to the Company's financial statements.

Intersegment transactions are not material for any period presented.

11. Commitments and Contingencies

As part of the Company's credit facility, the Company maintains a letter of credit facility to satisfy certain of its own contractual requirements. At September 30, 2019, the aggregate committed amount of letters of credit outstanding under the credit facility was $11,636,000.

In the normal course of its business, the Company is sometimes named as a defendant or responsible party in suits or other actions by insureds or claimants contesting decisions made by the Company or its clients with respect to the settlement of claims. Additionally, certain clients of the Company have in the past brought, and may, in the future bring, claims for indemnification on the basis of alleged actions by the Company, its agents, or its employees in rendering services to clients. The majority of these claims are of the type covered by insurance maintained by the Company. However, the Company is responsible for the deductibles and self-insured retentions under various insurance coverages. In the opinion of Company management, adequate provisions have been made for such known and foreseeable risks.

The Company is subject to numerous federal, state, and foreign labor, employment, worker health and safety, antitrust and competition, environmental and consumer protection, import/export, anti-corruption, and other laws. From time to time the Company faces claims and investigations by employees, former employees, and governmental entities under such laws or employment contracts with such employees or former employees. Such claims, investigations, and any litigation involving the Company could divert management's time and attention from the Company's business operations and could potentially result in substantial costs of defense, settlement or other disposition, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company's results of operations, financial position, and cash flows. In the opinion of Company management, adequate provisions have been made for any items that are probable and reasonably estimable.

During the three months ended June 30, 2019, the Company recognized an expense in the amount of $11.4 million related to an arbitration panel awarding three of four former executives of the Company's former Garden City Group business unit additional payments associated with their departure from the Garden City Group on December 31, 2015. In August 2019, the Company received a claim from the fourth former executive of the Garden City Group. This claim was settled in October for $1.2 million, which is reflected in the three months ended September 30, 2019 as "Arbitration and claim settlements" on the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. The total for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 is $12.6 million, and is presented as "Arbitration and claim settlements" on the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. There are no other potential claimants related to this matter.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Shareholders and Board of Directors of

Crawford & Company

Results of Review of Interim Financial Statements

We have reviewed the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet of Crawford & Company (the Company) as of September 30, 2019, the related condensed consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income, and shareholders’ investment for the three-month and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “condensed consolidated interim financial statements”). Based on our reviews, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the condensed consolidated interim financial statements for them to be in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

We have previously audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the consolidated balance sheet of the Company as of December 31, 2018, and the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income, cash flows, and shareholders’ investment for the year then ended, and the related notes (not presented herein); and in our report dated February 25, 2019, we expressed an unqualified audit opinion on those consolidated financial statements. In our opinion, the information set forth in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2018, is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the consolidated balance sheet from which it has been derived.

Basis for Review Results

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the SEC and the PCAOB. We conducted our review in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. A review of interim financial statements consists principally of applying analytical procedures and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB, the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.

The following Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations ("MD&A") should be read in conjunction with (i) our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes thereto for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, and as of September 30, 2019, and December 31, 2018, contained in Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, and (ii) our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018. As described in Note 1, "Basis of Presentation," the financial results of our operations outside of the U.S., Canada, the Caribbean, and certain subsidiaries in the Philippines are included in our consolidated financial statements on a two-month delayed basis (fiscal year-end of October 31) as permitted by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") in order to provide sufficient time for accumulation of their results.

Business Overview

Based in Atlanta, Georgia, Crawford & Company (www.crawco.com) is the world's largest publicly listed independent provider of claims management and outsourcing solutions to the risk management and insurance industry, as well as to self-insured entities, with an expansive global network serving clients in more than 70 countries. Shares of the Company's two classes of common stock are traded on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbols CRD-A and CRD-B, respectively. The Company's two classes of stock are substantially identical, except with respect to voting rights and the Company's ability to pay greater cash dividends on the non-voting Class A Common Stock than on the voting Class B Common Stock, subject to certain limitations. In addition, with respect to mergers or similar transactions, holders of Class A Common Stock must receive the same type and amount of consideration as holders of Class B Common Stock, unless different consideration is approved by the holders of 75% of the Class A Common Stock, voting as a class.

The Company delivers services to its clients through a global service line reporting structure consisting of three operating segments: (i) Crawford Claims Solutions; (ii) Crawford TPA Solutions (formerly referred to as "Crawford TPA Solutions: Broadspire"), which trades under the Broadspire brand globally; and (iii) Crawford Specialty Solutions. Crawford Claims Solutions serves the global property and casualty insurance company markets. Crawford TPA Solutions serves the global casualty, disability and self-insurance marketplace worldwide. Crawford Specialty Solutions serves the global property and casualty insurance company markets, and prior to the sale of the Garden City Group business line on June 15, 2018, the class action, regulatory, mass tort, bankruptcy, and other legal settlement markets.

As discussed in more detail in subsequent sections of this MD&A, our three operating segments represent components of our Company for which separate financial information is available, and which is evaluated regularly by our chief operating decision maker ("CODM") in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing operating performance.

During the 2019 first quarter, the Company realigned certain operations within Canada from the Crawford Claims Solutions segment to the Crawford Specialty Solutions segment. Previously reported amounts have been conformed to reflect these changes. No other changes in operating responsibilities occurred. These transfers are not material to the Company's financial statements.

Insurance companies rely on us for certain services such as field investigation and the evaluation of property and casualty insurance claims. Self-insured entities typically rely on us for a broader range of services. In addition to field investigation and claims evaluation, we may also provide initial loss reporting services for their claimants, loss mitigation services such as medical bill review, medical case management and vocational rehabilitation, risk management information services, and trust fund administration to pay their claims. Our Contractor Connection service line provides a managed contractor network to insurance carriers and consumer markets. Prior to the June 15, 2018 sale, the Garden City Group service line provided legal settlement administration services related to class action settlements, mass tort claims and bankruptcies, including identifying and qualifying class members, determining and dispensing settlement payments, and administering settlement funds.

The global claims management services market is highly competitive and comprised of a large number of companies that vary in size and that offer a varied scope of services. The demand from insurance companies and self-insured entities for services provided by independent claims service firms like us is largely dependent on industry-wide claims volumes, which are affected by, among other things, the insurance underwriting cycle, weather related events, general economic activity, overall employment levels and workplace injury rates. Demand is also impacted by decisions insurance companies and self-insured entities make with respect to the level of claims outsourced to independent claim service firms as opposed to those handled by their own in-house claims adjusters. In addition, our ability to retain clients and maintain or increase case referrals is also dependent in part on our ability to continue to provide high-quality, competitively priced services and effective sales efforts.

We typically earn our revenues on an individual fee-per-claim basis for claims management services that we provide to insurance companies and self-insured entities. Accordingly, the volume of claim referrals to us is a key driver of our revenues. We cannot predict the future trend of case volumes for a number of reasons, including the frequency and severity of weather related cases and the occurrence of natural and man-made disasters, which are a significant source of cases for us and are not subject to accurate forecasting.

Results of Operations

Executive Summary

Consolidated revenues before reimbursements for the three months ended September 30, 2019 was slightly below the same period of 2018. For the nine months ended September 30, 2019, revenues decreased $48.6 million, or 6.0%, compared to 2018 primarily due to the disposition of the Garden City Group service line as of June 15, 2018, which represents a $29.9 million variance in the year-to-date period compared to 2018. In addition, changes in foreign exchange rates decreased our consolidated revenues by $7.3 million, or 2.9%, for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and $19.5 million, or 2.5%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to the prior year periods. To illustrate the impact of these two factors, segment revenues are presented below, using a constant exchange rate, for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2019, while segment revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 are presented excluding the revenues from the Garden City Group service line:

	Three Months Ended						Three Months Ended

Total Revenues	$	790,065	$	848,459	(6.9	)%	$	811,095	$	808,050	0.4	%

Excluding the Garden City Group business and foreign currency implications, consolidated revenues before reimbursements increased $7.0 million, or 2.7%, for the three months ended September 30, 2019, and increased $0.8 million, or 0.1%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2019. See Note 13, "Disposition of Business Line" of our accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for further discussion about the Garden City Group disposition.

Revenues from the Crawford Claims Solutions segment increased in the three months ended September 30, 2019 primarily due to an increase in new clients in the U.S. and an increase in Australia. Excluding the effects of foreign currency, revenues from the Crawford TPA Solutions segment increased slightly due to an increase in cases received in the U.S. Revenues from the Crawford Specialty Solutions segment increased due to an increase in the Global Technical Services service line.

32

To illustrate exposure to the impact of changes in foreign currencies, revenues before reimbursements are presented below by denominated currency for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2019:

		Three Months Ended								Nine Months Ended

Total Revenues, before reimbursements		$	254,677			$	255,029			$	758,616			$	807,177

Costs of services provided, before reimbursements, increased $1.6 million, or 0.9%, for the three months ended September 30, 2019, and $40.7 million, or 7.1%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, compared with the same periods of 2018. The increase in the third quarter was primarily due to increases in Crawford Claims Solutions and Crawford Specialty Solutions to support new client growth. The decrease in the nine month period was due to the Garden City Group disposition referenced above, lower expenses in Crawford Claims Solutions to support the decrease in weather related activity, and changes in foreign exchange rates.

Selling, general, and administrative ("SG&A") expenses were 16.9% lower in the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 9.3% lower in the nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared with the same periods of 2018. The decrease in the third quarter was due to a decrease in professional fees, non-employee labor and other administrative costs. The decrease in the nine month period was due to the Garden City Group disposition, changes in foreign exchange rates, and a decrease in non-employee labor, professional fees and other administrative costs in 2019.

During the three months ended September 30, 2019, we recognized a pretax charge in the amount of $1.2 million related to a settlement with the fourth former executive of our former Garden City Group. In the three months ended June 30, 2019, we recorded a pretax charge of $11.4 million related to an arbitration panel awarding three former executives of the Company’s former Garden City Group additional payments associated with their departure from the Garden City Group on December 31, 2015. There are no other potential claimants related to this matter.

During the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2018, we recorded a pretax loss on the disposal of the Garden City Group business line of $1.2 million and $19.0 million, respectively.

Operating Earnings of our Operating Segments

We believe that a discussion and analysis of the segment operating earnings of our three operating segments is helpful in understanding the results of our operations. Operating earnings is our segment measure of profitability presented in conformity with the Financial Accounting Standards Board's ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 280 "Segment Reporting." Operating earnings is the primary financial performance measure used by our senior management and CODM to evaluate the financial performance of our operating segments and make resource allocation and certain compensation decisions.

We believe operating earnings is a measure that is useful to others in that it allows them to evaluate segment operating performance using the same criteria used by our senior management and CODM. Segment operating earnings represent segment earnings, including the direct and indirect costs of certain administrative functions required to operate our business, but excludes unallocated corporate and shared costs and credits, net corporate interest expense, stock option expense, amortization of customer-relationship intangible assets, goodwill and intangible asset impairment charges, restructuring and special charges, arbitration and claim settlements, loss on disposition of business line, income taxes, and net income or loss attributable to noncontrolling interests and redeemable noncontrolling interests.

Administrative functions such as finance, human resources, information technology, quality and compliance, exist in both a centralized shared-service arrangement and within certain operations. Each of these functions is managed by centralized management and we allocate the costs of those services to the segments as indirect costs based on usage.

33

Gross profit is defined as segment revenues, less segment direct costs, which exclude centralized indirect administrative support costs allocated to the business.

Income taxes, net corporate interest expense, stock option expense, and amortization of customer-relationship intangible assets are recurring components of our net income, but they are not considered part of our segment operating earnings because they are managed on a corporate-wide basis. Income taxes are calculated for the Company on a consolidated basis based on statutory rates in effect in the various jurisdictions in which we provide services, and vary significantly by jurisdiction. Net corporate interest expense results from capital structure decisions made by senior management and the Board of Directors, affecting the Company as a whole. Stock option expense represents the non-cash costs generally related to stock options and employee stock purchase plan expenses which are not allocated to our operating segments. Amortization expense is a non-cash expense for finite-lived customer-relationship and trade name intangible assets acquired in business combinations. None of these costs relate directly to the performance of our services or operating activities and, therefore, are excluded from segment operating earnings in order to better assess the results of each segment's operating activities on a consistent basis.

Unallocated corporate and shared costs and credits include expenses and credits related to our chief executive officer and Board of Directors, certain provisions for bad debt allowances or subsequent recoveries such as those related to bankrupt clients, defined benefit pension costs or credits for our frozen U.S. pension plan, certain unallocated professional fees, and certain self-insurance costs and recoveries that are not allocated to our individual operating segments.

Restructuring and special charges arise from time to time from events (such as internal restructurings, losses on subleases, establishment of new operations, and asset impairments) that are not allocated to any particular segment since they historically have not regularly impacted our performance and are not expected to impact our future performance on a regular basis.

Additional discussion and analysis of our income taxes, net corporate interest expense, stock option expense, amortization of customer-relationship intangible assets, unallocated corporate and shared costs and credits, arbitration and claim settlements, and loss on disposition of business line follows the discussion and analysis of the results of operations of our three operating segments.

Segment Revenues

In the normal course of business, our operating segments incur certain out-of-pocket expenses that are thereafter reimbursed by our clients. Under GAAP, these out-of-pocket expenses and associated reimbursements are reported on a gross basis when reporting revenues and expenses, respectively, in our unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. In the discussion and analysis of results of operations which follows, we do not include a gross up of expenses and revenues for these pass-through reimbursed expenses. The amounts of reimbursed expenses and related revenues offset each other in our results of operations with no impact to our net income or operating earnings. A reconciliation of revenues before reimbursements to consolidated revenues determined in accordance with GAAP is self-evident from the face of the accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Our segment results are impacted by changes in foreign exchange rates. We believe that a non-GAAP discussion and analysis of segment revenues before reimbursements by major region, based on actual exchange rates and using a constant exchange rate, is helpful in understanding the results of our segment operations. Revenues in our Crawford Specialty Solutions segment are also impacted by the disposition of the Garden City Group service line as of June 15, 2018.

Segment Operating Expenses

Our discussion and analysis of segment operating expenses is comprised of two components: "Direct Compensation, Fringe Benefits & Non-Employee Labor" and "Expenses Other Than Direct Compensation, Fringe Benefits & Non-Employee Labor."

"Direct Compensation, Fringe Benefits & Non-Employee Labor" includes direct compensation, payroll taxes, and benefits provided to the employees of each segment, as well as payments to outsourced service providers that augment our staff in each segment. As a service company, these costs represent our most significant and variable operating expenses.

Costs of administrative functions, including direct compensation, payroll taxes, and benefits, are managed centrally and considered indirect costs. The allocated indirect costs of our shared-services infrastructure are allocated to each segment based on usage and reflected within "Expenses Other Than Direct Compensation, Fringe Benefits & Non-Employee Labor" of each segment.

In addition to allocated corporate and shared costs, "Expenses Other Than Direct Compensation, Fringe Benefits & Non-Employee Labor" includes travel and entertainment, office rent and occupancy costs, automobile expenses, office operating expenses, data processing costs, cost of risk, professional fees, and amortization and depreciation expense other than amortization of customer-relationship intangible assets.

34

In addition, we believe that a non-GAAP discussion and analysis of segment gross profit is helpful in understanding the

results of our segment operations, excluding indirect centralized administrative support costs. Our discussion and analysis of

segment gross profit includes the revenues and direct expenses of each segment.

Unless noted in the following discussion and analysis, revenue amounts exclude reimbursements for out-of-pocket expenses and expense amounts exclude reimbursed out-of-pocket expenses.

35

Operating results for our Crawford Claims Solutions, Crawford TPA Solutions, and Crawford Specialty Solutions segments reconciled to net income before income taxes and net income attributable to shareholders of Crawford & Company were as follows:

CRAWFORD CLAIMS SOLUTIONS SEGMENT

Operating earnings in our Crawford Claims Solutions segment increased to $2.7 million, or 3.1% of revenues before reimbursements, for the three months ended September 30, 2019, compared with an operating loss in 2018 of $0.1 million, or 0.2% of revenues before reimbursements. For the nine months ended September 30, 2019, operating earnings decreased to $4.1 million, or 1.6% of revenues before reimbursements, compared with 2018 operating earnings of $5.1 million, or 1.9% of revenues before reimbursements. The increase in operating earnings in the third quarter was due to an increase in new clients in the U.S. and expense reductions. The decrease in operating earnings for the year-to-date period resulted primarily from an overall decrease in weather related claim activity and revenues in the U.S. and Canada, and lower earnings in Canada and Europe. There was also an increase in centralized administrative support costs to expand technology and sales efforts, as compared to 2018.

Excluding centralized indirect support costs, gross profit increased from $17.7 million, or 20.7% of revenues before reimbursements in 2018, to $19.8 million, or 22.9% of revenues before reimbursements, in the three months ended September 30, 2019, for the reasons referenced above. For the nine month periods, gross profit decreased from $57.2 million, or 21.3% of revenues before reimbursements, in 2018, to $56.4 million, but as a percent of revenues increased to 22.1% of revenues before reimbursements in 2019, due to the absence of hurricane runoff revenues present in the prior year.

Revenues before Reimbursements

Crawford Claims Solutions segment revenues are primarily derived from the global property and casualty insurance company markets in the U.S., U.K., Canada, Australia, Europe and Rest of World. Revenues before reimbursements by major region, based on actual exchange rates and using a constant exchange rate, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 were as follows:

Revenues before reimbursements from our Crawford Claims Solutions segment totaled $86.3 million in the three months ended September 30, 2019, compared with $85.3 million in the comparable 2018 period. This increase was due to an increase in new client growth in the U.S. and U.K., and an increase in cases received in Australia. Changes in foreign exchange rates resulted in a decrease of our Crawford Claims Solutions segment revenues by approximately 4.2%, or $3.6 million, for the three months ended September 30, 2019 as compared with the 2018 period. Absent foreign exchange rate fluctuations, Crawford Claims Solutions segment revenues would have been $89.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019. There was a decrease in segment unit volume, measured principally by cases received, of 8.9% for the three months ended September 30, 2019, compared with the 2018 period. Changes in product mix and in the rates charged for those services accounted for a 14.2% revenue increase for the three months ended September 30, 2019 compared with the same period in 2018 due primarily to a reduction in high-frequency, low-complexity cases.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2019, revenues before reimbursements from our Crawford Claims Solutions segment totaled $255.6 million, compared with $268.9 million in the 2018 period. This decrease was primarily due to a decrease in weather related activity in the U.S., as the 2018 period included the runoff of 2017 hurricane claims activity, which negatively impacted revenues by $13.9 million, or 5.2% of Crawford Claims Solutions segment revenues. Changes in foreign exchange rates resulted in a decrease of our Crawford Claims Solutions segment revenues by approximately 3.5%, or $9.4 million, for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 as compared with the 2018 period. Absent foreign exchange rate fluctuations, Crawford Claims Solutions segment revenues would have been $265.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019. There was a decrease in segment unit volume, measured principally by cases received, of 7.7% for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, compared with the 2018 period. Changes in product mix and in the rates charged for those services accounted for a 11.4% revenue increase for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared with the same period in 2018.

The increase in revenues in the U.S. for the three months ended September 30, 2019 was primarily due to an increase in new clients, although there was a decrease for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 due to a reduction in weather related activity referenced above. Based on constant foreign exchange rates, there were increases in revenues in the U.K. for 2019 compared with 2018 due to an increase in new clients and expanding new services. Revenues in Canada increased in the third quarter of 2019, although decreased in the year-to-date period due to a reduction in weather related case activity resulting from Ontario windstorms in the 2018 period. There were revenue increases in Australia due to an increase in weather related case activity in the 2019 periods. The revenue increase in Europe in the third quarter was due to a change in the mix of services provided in Scandinavia, although there was a decrease in Europe for the year-to-date period due to a reduction in cases received in Germany, Poland and the Netherlands. The decrease in revenues in Rest of World for the current three month and nine month periods compared with the 2018 periods was primarily due to a reduction in weather related case activity in Asia.

Reimbursed Expenses included in Total Revenues

Reimbursements for out-of-pocket expenses incurred in our Crawford Claims Solutions segment, which are included in total Company revenues, were $5.6 million and $4.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. Reimbursements were $15.4 million and $14.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. The increase in reimbursed expenses was due to an increased use of third parties in the U.K. in 2019 compared to 2018.

Case Volume Analysis

Crawford Claims Solutions segment unit volumes by geographic region, measured by cases received, for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 were as follows:

	Three Months Ended				Nine Months Ended
(whole numbers, except percentages)	September 30, 2019	September 30, 2018	Variance		September 30, 2019	September 30, 2018	Variance
U.S.	72,463	81,628	(11.2	)%	218,124	235,080	(7.2	)%
U.K.	13,312	13,265	0.4	%	40,589	41,466	(2.1	)%

Europe	10,067	10,757	(6.4	)%	27,326	38,053	(28.2	)%
Rest of World	4,656	4,603	1.2	%	13,210	15,706	(15.9	)%
Total Crawford Claims Solutions Cases Received	117,296	128,779	(8.9	)%	358,272	388,298	(7.7	)%

39

Overall, there were decreases in cases received of 8.9% and 7.7% for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2019, respectively, compared to the 2018 periods. The decrease in U.S. case volumes in the third quarter was due to a reduction in high frequency, low complexity cases and a change in the mix of services provided, and for the year-to-date period due to a decrease in weather related activity. The U.K. case volumes were higher in the third quarter due to an increase in weather related activity, but lower in the 2019 year-to-date period. The decreases in Canada were due to a reduction in weather related cases, due to Ontario windstorms that were present in the prior year. The increase in cases in Australia was due to an increase in weather related activity in 2019. There were reductions in cases received in Europe in 2019 due to a reduction in high-frequency, low-complexity cases in Germany and Poland. There was a slight increase in cases received in Rest of World in the third quarter, although there was a decrease in the nine months ended September 30, 2019 due to a decline in high-frequency, low-complexity property cases in Asia.

Direct Compensation, Fringe Benefits & Non-Employee Labor

The most significant expense in our Crawford Claims Solutions segment is the compensation of employees, including related payroll taxes and fringe benefits, and the payments to outsourced service providers that augment the functions performed by our employees. As a percentage of revenues before reimbursements, direct compensation, fringe benefits, and non-employee labor expenses were 66.1% for the three months ended September 30, 2019 compared to 66.0% for the 2018 period. For the nine months ended September 30, 2019, direct compensation, fringe benefits, and non-employee labor expenses, as a percent of revenues before reimbursements, were 66.1%, compared with 65.7% for the comparable period in 2018. The increase in expenses as a percent of revenues before reimbursements is due to lower employee utilization in Canada and Europe. The total dollar amount of these expenses increased to $57.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019 from $56.3 million for the comparable 2018 period, but decreased in the nine months ended September 30, 2019 to $169.0 million from $176.8 million in 2018, as a result of the lower revenues and the change in foreign exchange rates. There was an average of 2,908 full-time equivalent employees in this segment in the nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared with an average of 2,980 in the 2018 period.

Expenses Other than Reimbursements, Direct Compensation, Fringe Benefits & Non-Employee Labor

Crawford Claims Solutions expenses other than reimbursements, direct compensation, fringe benefits, and non-employee labor were $26.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019 compared with $29.2 million for the 2018 period. As a percentage of revenues before reimbursements, expenses other than direct compensation, fringe benefits, and non-employee labor expenses were 30.8% for the three months ended September 30, 2019 compared with 34.2% for the 2018 period. For the nine months ended September 30, 2019, these expenses were $82.6 million, or 32.3% of segment revenues before reimbursements, compared with $87.0 million, or 32.4% of segment revenues before reimbursements, for the comparable 2018 period. The decrease in cost is related to expense reductions in 2019 and the change in foreign exchange rates in the 2019 periods. The decrease as a percent of revenues was a result of improved expense reductions, partially offset by an increase in centralized administrative support costs related to investments in technology and expanding sales efforts in the 2019 period.

CRAWFORD TPA SOLUTIONS SEGMENT

Our Crawford TPA Solutions segment, which operates under the Broadspire brand globally, reported operating earnings of $9.3 million, or 9.4% of revenues before reimbursements, for the third quarter of 2019 as compared to $8.1 million, or 8.0% of revenues before reimbursements, for the third quarter of 2018. This increase was due to a reduction in administrative expenses. For the nine months ended September 30, 2019, operating earnings were $21.1 million, or 7.1% of revenues before reimbursements, as compared to $24.0 million, or 7.9% of revenues before reimbursements, for 2018. The decrease in operating earnings for the 2019 year-to-date period resulted from lower revenues, which were not fully offset by lower expenses.

Excluding centralized indirect support costs, third quarter gross profit increased from $26.5 million, or 26.5% of revenues before reimbursements, in 2018 to $26.7 million, or 26.8% of revenues before reimbursements, in 2019. For the year-to-date period, gross profit decreased from $79.5 million, or 26.2% of revenues before reimbursements, in 2018 to $75.9 million, or 25.6% of revenues before reimbursements, in 2019, with lower direct expenses not fully offsetting the lower revenues.

Changes in product mix and in the rates charged for those services accounted for a 3.4% revenue decrease for the 2019 third quarter compared with the 2018 period.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2019, revenues before reimbursements from our Crawford TPA Solutions segment totaled $296.8 million, compared with $303.2 million in the 2018 period. Changes in foreign exchange rates resulted in a decrease of our Crawford TPA Solutions segment revenues by approximately 1.1%, or $3.4 million, for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 as compared with the 2018 period. Revenues were also negatively impacted by a decrease in unit volumes, measured principally by cases received, of 2.8% for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared with the same period of 2018. Changes in product mix and in the rates charged for those services, however, accounted for a 1.8% revenue increase for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared with the 2018 period.

The slight increase in revenues in the U.S. for the three months ended September 30, 2019 was due to an increase in new clients. The decrease in revenues in the US for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, as compared with the 2018 period was primarily due to a decrease in new Claims Management and Medical Management clients, partially offset by an increase in Disability clients. Based on constant foreign exchange rates, there was an increase in revenues in the U.K. in the third quarter, although there was a decrease in revenues in the U.K. for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, due to client case volume decreases and a change in the mix of services provided. Revenues in Canada decreased in the current year due to a change in the mix of services provided and a reduction in case volumes. Revenues increased in Europe and Rest of World in the third quarter and for the nine months primarily due to growth from both new and existing clients.

Reimbursed Expenses included in Total Revenues

Reimbursements for out-of-pocket expenses incurred in our Crawford TPA Solutions segment were $3.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019, compared with $2.7 million in the comparable 2018 period. Reimbursements were $8.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, compared with $7.7 million in the comparable 2018 period. The changes in reimbursed expenses was consistent with the revenue and case volume activity between periods.

Case Volume Analysis

Crawford TPA Solutions unit volumes by geographic region, as measured by cases received, for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 were as follows:

	Three Months Ended				Nine Months Ended
(whole numbers, except percentages)	September 30, 2019	September 30, 2018	Variance		September 30, 2019	September 30, 2018	Variance
U.S.	130,718	117,896	10.9	%	369,751	367,138	0.7	%
U.K.	10,411	10,746	(3.1	)%	28,474	33,690	(15.5	)%
Canada	17,817	23,942	(25.6	)%	56,975	72,197	(21.1	)%
Europe and Rest of World	54,082	52,637	2.7	%	156,535	156,561	—	%
Total Crawford TPA Solutions Cases Received	213,028	205,221	3.8	%	611,735	629,586	(2.8	)%

Overall case volumes were 3.8% higher for the three months ended September 30, 2019, compared with 2018, due to client growth in the U.S. Case volumes were 2.8% lower for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, compared with the same period in 2018, primarily due to a reduction in cases in Canada. The increases in the U.S. were due to new client growth in Claims Management, Medical Management, and Disability cases. There was a decrease in the 2019 periods in the U.K. due to client business declines impacting both the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2019. The reduction in Canada was due to a reduction in weather related cases that were present in the prior year, along with lower carrier volumes as more cases were handled internally. The increase in cases received in Europe and Rest of World was due to a change in the mix of cases received in Europe in the third quarter, although cases were consistent for the year-to-date period.

Direct Compensation, Fringe Benefits & Non-Employee Labor

The most significant expense in our Crawford TPA Solutions segment is the compensation of employees, including related payroll taxes and fringe benefits, and the payments to outsourced service providers that augment the functions performed by our employees. For the three months ended September 30, direct compensation, fringe benefits, and non-employee labor, as a percent of the related revenues before reimbursements, decreased from 59.0% in 2018 to 58.9% in 2019. The amount of these expenses decreased from $59.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018 to $58.6 million for the 2019 comparable period, due to improved employee utilization. For the nine months ended September 30, 2019, direct compensation, fringe benefits, and non-employee labor, as a percent of the related revenues before reimbursements, increased from 58.6% in 2018 to 59.9% in 2019. The amount of these expenses increased slightly from $177.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 to $177.9 million for the 2019 comparable period. The increase in the nine months as a percent of revenues before reimbursements relates to an increase in employees in 2019 and the decline in revenues compared to the 2018 period.

Average full-time equivalent employees in this segment totaled 3,176 in the first nine months of 2019, up from 3,136 in the comparable 2018 period.

Expenses Other than Reimbursements, Direct Compensation, Fringe Benefits & Non-Employee Labor

Crawford TPA Solutions segment expenses other than reimbursements, direct compensation, fringe benefits, and non-employee labor as a percent of revenues before reimbursements were 31.7% and 32.9% for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2019, respectively, compared with 33.0% and 33.5% in the comparable 2018 periods. The decrease in expenses as a percent of revenues in the third quarter was due to expense controls implemented in 2019. The amount of these expenses decreased from $33.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018 to $31.6 million in 2019, and from $101.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 to $97.8 million in 2019, due to the lower revenues and expense controls implemented in 2019.

CRAWFORD SPECIALTY SOLUTIONS SEGMENT

Our Crawford Specialty Solutions segment reported operating earnings of $13.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, as compared with operating earnings of $14.4 million in the comparable 2018 period. The related segment operating margin decreased from 20.7% for the quarter ended September 30, 2018, to 19.3% in the comparable 2019 period. This decrease was due to an increase in employees and related compensation expense. Operating earnings for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 totaled $38.1 million, as compared with operating earnings of $34.4 million in the comparable 2018 period. The related segment operating margin increased from 14.6% for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 to 18.5% in the comparable 2019 period. The improvement in the year-to-date period was primarily due to the absence of the Garden City Group business which was disposed in June 2018.

Excluding indirect support costs, gross profit in the third quarter decreased from $25.9 million, or 37.3% of revenues before reimbursements, in 2018 to $24.8 million, or 36.0% of revenues before reimbursements, in 2019, due to an increase in employees to support client growth. For the nine months, gross profit decreased from $79.6 million, or 33.8% of revenues before reimbursements, in 2018 to $72.5 million, but increased as a percent of revenues to 35.1% of revenues before reimbursements, in 2019, due primarily to the absence of the Garden City Group business.

Unless otherwise noted, all amounts presented below for 2018 reflect activity of the Garden City Group service line through June 15, 2018, due to the disposal of that business as of that date.

Revenues before Reimbursements

Crawford Specialty Solutions segment revenues are primarily derived from the global property and casualty insurance company markets in the U.S., U.K., Canada, Australia, Europe and Rest of World, and, prior to the disposition of the Garden City Group business line in June 2018, the legal settlement administration market primarily in the U.S. and Canada. Revenues before reimbursements by major region, based on actual exchange rates, using a constant exchange rate and, in each case, excluding activity from the Garden City Group service line, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 were as follows:

	Three Months Ended

Total Crawford Specialty Solutions Revenues before Reimbursements	$	206,237	$	235,137	(12.3	)%	$	212,895	$	205,262	3.7	%

Revenues before reimbursements from our Crawford Specialty Solutions segment totaled $68.9 million in the three months ended September 30, 2019, compared with $69.4 million in the 2018 period. Changes in foreign exchange rates resulted in a decrease of our Crawford Specialty Solutions segment revenues by approximately 3.7%, or $2.6 million, for the three months ended September 30, 2019, as compared with 2018. Absent foreign exchange rate fluctuations, Crawford Specialty Solutions segment revenues would have been $71.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019. For the nine months ended September 30, 2019, revenues before reimbursements from our Crawford Specialty Solutions segment totaled $206.2 million, compared with $235.1 million in the 2018 period. Changes in foreign exchange rates resulted in a decrease of our Crawford Specialty Solutions segment revenues by approximately 3.2%, or $6.7 million, for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, as compared with the 2018 period. Absent foreign exchange rate fluctuations, Crawford Specialty Solutions segment revenues would have been $212.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019.

The Garden City Group service line, which was disposed in June 2018, represents a $29.9 million negative variance, or 12.7% of Crawford Specialty Solutions revenues, in the nine months ended September 30, 2019, compared to the 2018 period.

Overall case volumes were 8.8% lower for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 6.9% for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, compared with the same periods of 2018. Changes in product mix and in the rates charged for those services accounted for an 11.8% and 10.6% revenue increase for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2019, respectively, compared with the same periods in 2018.

The increase in revenues in the U.S. for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2019 was due to an increase in new clients in our Global Technical Services and Contractor Connection service lines, compared with the 2018 period. The decrease in the U.S. in the year-to-date period was due to the Garden City Group disposal. On a constant currency basis, there was a revenue increase in the U.K. in the 2019 third quarter and year-to-date period primarily due to an increase in our Global Technical Services service line. Revenues in Canada increased in the 2019 year-to-date period compared with 2018 due to an increase in clients in Global Technical Services. There was a slight increase in revenues in Australia due to an increase in weather related activity in the current year. There was a revenue increase in Europe in the third quarter resulting from an acquisition in Belgium, although a decrease in revenues in the year-to-date period due to decreased revenues in Italy. The increase in revenues in Rest of World was primarily due to increased weather related activity in Hong Kong.

Reimbursed Expenses included in Total Revenues

Reimbursements for out-of-pocket expenses incurred in our Crawford Specialty Solutions segment can vary materially from period to period depending on the amount and types of projects, primarily in the Garden City Group service line, and were $2.5 million and $7.3 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, respectively, compared with $2.3 million and $19.2 million, respectively, in the comparable 2018 periods. The decrease in the 2019 year-to-date period was primarily due to the absence of the Garden City Group service line previously referenced, which had reimbursements of $13.0 million in the 2018 year-to-date period.

Case Volume Analysis

Crawford Specialty Solutions unit volumes by geographic region, as measured by cases received, for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 were as follows:

	Three Months Ended				Nine Months Ended
(whole numbers, except percentages)	September 30, 2019	September 30, 2018	Variance		September 30, 2019	September 30, 2018	Variance
U.S.	53,420	58,870	(9.3	)%	162,737	170,006	(4.3	)%

Rest of World	5,584	5,594	(0.2	)%	15,694	14,919	5.2	%
Total Crawford Specialty Solutions Cases Received	82,330	90,304	(8.8	)%	252,367	271,108	(6.9	)%

Overall case volumes were 8.8% lower in the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 6.9% lower in the nine months ended September 30, 2019, compared with the same periods in 2018. The decrease in U.S. case volumes in the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2019 was due to a decrease in weather related cases in Contractor Connection, compared to the 2018 periods. The U.K. case volumes were lower in the 2019 periods due to a decrease in high-frequency, low-complexity property cases in the Contractor Connection service line. There was a slight increase in cases received in Canada in the third quarter, although a decrease in Canada for the year-to-date period due to a decrease in weather related activity in the current year as Contractor Connection received additional cases from the Ontario windstorms in 2018. The decrease in Australia cases was due to a reduction in high-frequency, low-complexity property cases in the current period. The decrease in cases in Europe was primarily due to a decrease in Global Technical Services in Italy. Cases received in Rest of World was slightly lower in the third quarter, although there was an increase in the year-to-date period due to an increase in weather related cases in Asia.

Garden City Group services were generally project based and not denominated by individual claims and therefore not included in the table above for the nine months ended September 30, 2018.

Direct Compensation, Fringe Benefits & Non-Employee Labor

Crawford Specialty Solutions direct compensation, fringe benefits, and non-employee labor expenses as a percent of revenues before reimbursements were 52.2% in the 2019third quarter compared to 50.1% in the 2018third quarter. The dollar amount of these expenses was $36.0 million for the 2019third quarter and $34.8 million for the comparable 2018 period. This increase was due to increased staffing to support client growth. For the nine months, direct compensation, fringe benefits, and non-employee labor expenses as a percent of revenues before reimbursements were 51.4% in both periods, and the dollar amount of these expenses was $106.0 million in 2019 compared to $120.8 million for the comparable 2018 period. The decrease in the dollar amount in the 2019 year-to-date period was due to the Garden City Group disposal referenced above. Excluding the impact of the Garden City Group service line, direct compensation expenses, fringe benefits, and non-employee labor as a percent of Crawford Specialty Solutions segment revenues before reimbursements would have been $103.6 million, or 50.5%, in the nine months ended September 30, 2018. The increase in the percentage of revenues before reimbursements was due to increased compensation expense and an increase in employees in 2019. There was an average of 1,488 full-time equivalent employees in Crawford Specialty Solutions in the 2019 nine month period, compared with an average of 1,259, which excludes the 375 full-time equivalent employees within the Garden City Group, for the comparable 2018 nine month period.

Expenses Other than Reimbursements, Direct Compensation, Fringe Benefits & Non-Employee Labor

Expenses other than reimbursements, direct compensation, fringe benefits, and non-employee labor were 28.5% and 30.1% of Crawford Specialty Solutions revenues before reimbursements for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2019, respectively, compared with 29.2% and 34.0% for the comparable periods in 2018. The dollar amount of these expenses decreased to $19.6 million in the 2019third quarter as compared with $20.3 million in the comparable 2018 period, and decreased to $62.1 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to $79.9 million in the comparable 2018 period. The decrease in the third quarter is due to the lower revenues, and the decrease for the year-to-date period was primarily due to the Garden City Group disposal referenced above, which had $17.4 million of expenses in the nine month 2018 period.

EXPENSES AND CREDITS EXCLUDED FROM SEGMENT OPERATING EARNINGS

Income Taxes

Our consolidated effective income tax rate may change periodically due to changes in enacted tax rates, fluctuations in the mix of income earned from our various domestic and international operations, which are subject to income taxes at different rates, our ability to utilize net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards, and amounts related to uncertain income tax positions. We estimate that our effective income tax rate for 2019 will be approximately 32% after considering known discrete items as of September 30, 2019.

The provision for income taxes on consolidated income totaled $5.3 million and $1.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. The overall effective tax rate increased to 36.8% for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared with 31.1% for the 2018 period primarily due to a one-time tax planning benefit in 2018 related to the voluntary contribution of $10.0 million to the Company's U.S. defined benefit pension plan, the impact of the sale of the Garden City Group business in 2018 and the arbitration and claim settlements in 2019.

Net Corporate Interest Expense

Net corporate interest expense consists of interest expense that we incur on our short- and long-term borrowings, partially offset by any interest income we earn on available cash balances and short-term investments. These amounts vary based on interest rates, borrowings outstanding and the amounts of invested cash. Corporate interest expense totaled $3.2 million and $2.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. There was no interest income during the three months ended September 30, 2019, compared to $0.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018. Corporate interest expense totaled $8.9 million and $8.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. Interest income totaled $0.5 million and $1.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

Stock Option Expense

Stock option expense, a component of stock-based compensation, is comprised of non-cash expenses related to stock options granted under our various stock option and employee stock purchase plans. Stock option expense is not allocated to our operating segments. Stock option expense totaled $0.5 million and $0.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. Stock option expense totaled $1.3 million and $1.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

Amortization of Customer-Relationship Intangible Assets

Amortization of customer-relationship intangible assets represents the non-cash amortization expense for finite-lived customer-relationship and trade name intangible assets. Amortization expense associated with these intangible assets totaled $2.8 million for each of the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018. Amortization expense associated with these intangible assets totaled $8.4 million and $8.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. This amortization expense is included in "Selling, general, and administrative expenses" in our unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Unallocated Corporate and Shared Costs, Net

Certain unallocated corporate and shared costs are excluded from the determination of segment operating earnings. For the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, unallocated corporate and shared costs and credits represented costs of our frozen U.S. defined benefit pension plan, expenses for our chief executive officer and our Board of Directors, certain adjustments to our self-insured liabilities, certain unallocated legal costs and professional fees, and certain adjustments and recoveries to our allowances for doubtful accounts receivable.

Unallocated corporate and shared costs were $1.6 million and $5.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. The decrease for the three months ended September 30, 2019 was due to a decrease in professional fees, self-insurance expenses and other administrative costs, partially offset by an increase in defined benefit pension expense. Unallocated corporate and shared costs were $2.4 million and $7.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. The decrease for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 was due to a decrease in professional fees and other administrative costs, partially offset by an increase in defined benefit pension expense and self-insurance expenses.

46

Arbitration and Claim Settlements

During the three months ended June 30, 2019, we recognized an expense in the amount of $11.4 million related to an arbitration panel awarding three of four former executives of our former Garden City Group business unit additional payments associated with their departure from the Garden City Group on December 31, 2015. In August 2019, we received a claim from the fourth former executive of the Garden City Group. This claim was settled in October for $1.2 million, which is reflected in the three months ended September 30, 2019. Total arbitration and claim settlements for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 is $12.6 million. There are no other potential claimants related to this matter.

Loss on Disposition of Business Line

During the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2018, we recorded a loss on the disposal of a business line of $1.2 million and $19.0 million, respectively. The loss on the sale of the Garden City Group business was presented in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations as a separate charge "Loss on disposition of business line."

47

LIQUIDITY, CAPITAL RESOURCES, AND FINANCIAL CONDITION

At September 30, 2019, our working capital balance (current assets less current liabilities) was approximately $76.7 million, a decrease of $18.9 million from the working capital balance at December 31, 2018. Our cash and cash equivalents were $46.1 million at September 30, 2019, compared with $53.1 million at December 31, 2018.

Cash and cash equivalents as of September 30, 2019 consisted of $16.4 million held in the U.S. and $29.7 million held in our foreign subsidiaries. All of the cash and cash equivalents held by our foreign subsidiaries is available for general corporate purposes. The Company generally does not provide for additional U.S. and foreign income taxes on undistributed earnings of foreign subsidiaries because they are considered to be indefinitely reinvested. The Company's current expectation is that such earnings will be reinvested by the subsidiaries or will be repatriated only when it would be tax effective or otherwise strategically beneficial to the Company such as if a very unusual event or project generated profits significantly in excess of ongoing business reinvestment needs. If such an event were to occur, we would analyze the potential tax impact and our anticipated investment needs in that region and provide for U.S. taxes for earnings that are not expected to be indefinitely reinvested. Other historical earnings and future foreign earnings necessary for business reinvestment are expected to remain indefinitely reinvested and will be used to provide working capital for these operations, fund defined benefit pension plan obligations, repay non-U.S. debt, fund capital improvements, and fund future acquisitions.

We currently believe that funds expected to be generated from our U.S. operations, along with potential borrowing capabilities in the U.S., will be sufficient to fund our U.S. operations and other obligations, including our funding obligations under our U.S. defined benefit pension plan, for the foreseeable future and, therefore, except in limited circumstances such as those described above, we do not foresee a need to repatriate cash held by our foreign subsidiaries in a taxable transaction to fund our U.S. operations. However, if at a future date or time these funds are necessary for our operations in the U.S. or we otherwise believe it is in our best interests to repatriate all or a portion of such funds, we may be required to accrue and pay U.S. taxes to repatriate these funds. No assurances can be provided as to the amount or timing thereof, the tax consequences related thereto, or the ultimate impact any such action may have on our results of operations or financial condition.

No additional income or withholding taxes have been provided for any undistributed foreign earnings, nor have any taxes been provided for outside basis difference inherent in these entities as these amounts continue to be indefinitely reinvested in foreign operations. Additionally, due to withholding tax, basis computations, and other related tax considerations, it is not practicable to estimate any taxes to be provided on outside basis differences at this time.

Cash Provided by Operating Activities

Cash provided by operating activities was $42.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, compared with $16.0 million of cash provided in the comparable period of 2018. The increase in cash provided by operating activities was primarily due to a decrease in discretionary U.S. and U.K. pension contributions in 2019 compared to 2018, better accounts receivable management and lower working capital requirements, including the positive cash flow impact of the Garden City Group disposal in June 2018. The Company made a one-time discretionary contribution of $10.0 million to its U.S. defined benefit pension plan in the 2018 third quarter.

Cash Used in/Provided by Investing Activities

Cash used in investing activities, primarily for acquisitions of property and equipment and capitalized software, was $15.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, compared with $12.1 million provided in the first nine months of 2018. The 2018 activity included proceeds from the disposal of the Garden City Group business line. Capital expenditures were higher in the 2018 period due to the costs incurred for the consolidation and relocation of our Atlanta Service Center and other investments in technology, including Garden City Group expenditures.

Cash Used in Financing Activities

Cash used in financing activities was $33.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, compared with $28.6 million used in financing activities for the 2018 period. We paid $9.9 million and $10.2 million in dividends in the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. During the first nine months of 2019, we increased our short-term borrowings and book overdraft, net, by $0.5 million, compared with a decrease during the first nine months of 2018 of $11.3 million, to fund working capital requirements. Share repurchases totaled $25.7 million in the 2019 period, compared to $7.7 million for the first nine months of 2018.

Other Matters Concerning Liquidity and Capital Resources

As a component of our credit facility, we maintain a letter of credit facility to satisfy certain contractual obligations. Including $11.6 million of undrawn letters of credit issued under the letter of credit facility, the available balance under our credit facility totaled $247.5 million at September 30, 2019. Our short-term debt obligations typically peak during the first half of each year due to the annual payment of incentive compensation, contributions to retirement plans, working capital fluctuations, and certain other recurring payments, and generally decline during the balance of the year. The balance of short-term borrowings represents amounts under our credit facility that we expect, but are not required, to repay in the next twelve months. Long- and short-term borrowings outstanding, including current installments and finance leases, totaled $189.4 million as of September 30, 2019 compared with $190.4 million at December 31, 2018.

Defined Benefit Pension Funding and Cost

We sponsor a qualified defined benefit pension plan in the U.S. (the "U.S. Qualified Plan"), three defined benefit plans in the U.K., and defined benefit pension plans in the Netherlands, Norway, Germany, and the Philippines. Effective December 31, 2002, we froze our U.S. Qualified Plan. Our frozen U.S. Qualified Plan and U.K. plans were underfunded by $72.5 million and overfunded by $32.7 million, respectively, at December 31, 2018, based on accumulated benefit obligations of $420.2 million and $234.8 million for the U.S. Qualified Plan and the U.K. plans, respectively.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2019, the Company made no contributions to its U.S. defined benefit pension plan and $0.5 million to its U.K. defined benefit pension plans, respectively, compared with contributions of $19.0 million and $4.2 million, respectively, in the comparable 2018 period. The Company does not expect to make any additional contributions to its U.S. and U.K. plans during the remainder of 2019. Anticipated funding for the other international plans is not significant.

Dividend Payments

Our Board of Directors makes dividend decisions from time to time based in part on an assessment of current and projected earnings and cash flows. During the nine months ended September 30, 2019, we paid $9.9 million in dividends. Our ability to pay future dividends could be impacted by many factors including the funding requirements of our defined benefit pension plans, repayments of outstanding borrowings, levels of cash expected to be generated by our operating activities, and covenants and other restrictions contained in any credit facilities or other financing agreements. The covenants in our existing credit facility limit dividend payments to shareholders.

Financial Condition

Other significant changes on our unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of September 30, 2019, compared with our unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2018 were as follows:

• Unbilled revenues increased $8.7 million excluding foreign currency exchange impacts. This increase was primarily due to the Crawford Claims Solutions segment, which had increases due to weather related activity in Australia and other increases in the U.S. and Canada.

• Accounts payable and accrued liabilities decreased $4.4 million excluding foreign exchange impacts. The decrease related to changes in our self insurance liabilities and timing of payments within accounts payable. Included in this amount is the net change for the inclusion of "Operating lease right-of-use assets, net" and "Operating lease liabilities" as well as the removal of "Deferred rent", as discussed further below.

At September 30, 2019, we were not a party to any off-balance sheet arrangements which we believe could materially impact our operations, financial condition, or cash flows.

As disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018, we have certain material obligations under operating lease agreements to which we are a party. As discussed in Note 4, "Lease Commitments" of our accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the Company adopted Topic 842 as of January 1, 2019, which resulted in recording operating lease-related assets and liabilities on our unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of September 30, 2019.

We also maintain funds in various trust accounts to administer claims for certain clients. These funds are not available for our general operating activities and, as such, have not been recorded in the accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. We have concluded that we do not have a material off-balance sheet risk related to these funds.

APPLICATION OF CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

Except as set forth below, there have been no material changes to our critical accounting policies and estimates from those disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

For a discussion of quantitative and qualitative disclosures about the Company's market risk, see Item 7A, "Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk," of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018. Our exposures to market risk have not changed materially since December 31, 2018.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission'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 decisions regarding required disclosure. Management necessarily applies its judgment in assessing the costs and benefits of such controls and procedures, which, by their nature, can provide only reasonable assurance regarding management's control objectives. The Company's management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures can prevent all possible errors or fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that misstatements due to error or fraud will not occur or that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. There are inherent limitations in all control systems, including the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple errors or mistakes. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of one or more persons. The design of any system of controls is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and, while our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to be effective under circumstances where they should reasonably be expected to operate effectively, there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Because of the inherent limitations in any control system, misstatements due to possible errors or fraud may occur and not be detected.

As of the end of the period covered by this report, we performed an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(b) and 15d-15(b). Based upon the foregoing, the Chief Executive Officer along with the Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this report, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at providing reasonable assurance that all information relating to the Company (including its consolidated subsidiaries) required to be disclosed in our Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported in a timely manner.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

We have identified no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the period covered by this report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II — OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1A. Risk Factors

In addition to the other information set forth in this report, the factors discussed in Part I, "Item 1A. Risk Factors" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018 could materially affect our business, financial condition, or results of operations. The risks described in this report and in our Annual Report on Form 10-K are not the only risks facing our Company. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, or results of operations.

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds
