We are a leading provider of data analytics and technology-enabled solutions designed to bring affordability, efficiency and fairness to the U.S. healthcare industry. We do so through services focused on reducing medical cost and improving billing and payment accuracy for payors of healthcare, which include health insurers, self-insured employers, federal and state government-sponsored health plans (collectively "Payors") and other health plan sponsors (typically through their health plan administrators), and, indirectly, the plan members who are the consumers of healthcare services.
Throughout the notes to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, unless otherwise noted, "we," "us," "our", "MultiPlan", and the "Company" and similar terms refer to Polaris and its subsidiaries prior to the consummation of the Transactions, and MultiPlan and its subsidiaries after the Transactions.
Basis of Presentation and Consolidation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of MultiPlan Corporation have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations for reporting on Form 10-Q. Certain information and disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP) for complete consolidated financial statements have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the SEC’s rules and regulations, although management believes that the disclosures are adequate and make the information presented not misleading. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and notes herein should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements of MultiPlan Corporation and the notes thereto, included in the Company’s 2022 Annual Report. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, which are of a normal and recurring nature (except as otherwise noted), necessary for a fair statement of the Company’s financial position as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, and its results of operations and cash flows for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 have been included.
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from the Company's estimates. Estimates are periodically reviewed in light of changes in circumstances, facts and experience. Changes in estimates are recorded in the period in which they become known. Significant estimates and assumptions reflected in these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include, but are not limited to, revenue recognition, recoverability of long-lived assets, goodwill, valuation of Private Placement Warrants and Unvested Founder Shares, valuation of stock-based compensation awards and income taxes.
Segment Reporting
Operating segments are defined as components of an entity for which separate financial information is available and regularly reviewed by the chief operating decision maker. The Company manages its operations as a single segment for the purposes of assessing performance and making decisions. The Company's singular focus is being a leading value-added provider of data analytics and technology-enabled end-to-end cost management, payment and revenue integrity solutions to the U.S. healthcare industry.
In addition, all of the Company's revenues and long-lived assets are attributable to operations in the United States for all periods presented.

Due to the nature of our arrangements, certain estimates may be constrained if it is probable that a significant reversal of revenue will occur when the uncertainty is resolved. For our percentage of savings contracts, portions of revenue that is recognized and collected in a reporting period may be returned or credited in subsequent periods. These credits are the result of Payors not utilizing the discounts that were initially calculated, or differences between the Company’s estimates of savings achieved for a customer and the amounts self-reported in the following month by that same customer. Significant judgment is used in constraining estimates of variable consideration, and is based upon both customer-specific and aggregated factors that include historical billing and adjustment data, customer contractual terms, and performance guarantees. We update our estimates at the end of each reporting period as additional information becomes available. There have not been any material changes to estimates of variable consideration for performance obligations satisfied prior to the six months ended June 30, 2023.
The timing of payments from customers from time to time generates contract assets or contract liabilities, however these amounts are immaterial in all periods presented.
New Accounting Pronouncements Adopted
ASU 2020-04, 2021-01 and 2022-06, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848) and Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Scope. In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848), which provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying GAAP to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions affected by reference rate reform if certain criteria are met. The amendments apply only to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions that reference LIBOR or another reference rate expected to be discontinued because of reference rate reform. In January 2021, the FASB issued ASU No. 2021-01, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Scope, which expanded the scope of Topic 848 to include derivative instruments impacted by discounting transition. In December 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-06, which defers the effective date from December 31, 2022 to December 31, 2024. The expedients and exceptions provided by the amendments do not apply to contract modifications and hedging relationships entered into or evaluated after December 31, 2024, except for hedging transactions as of December 31, 2024, that an entity has elected certain optional expedients for and that are retained through the end of the hedging relationship. The Company has senior secured credit facilities for which the interest rates are indexed on the LIBOR. The Company transitioned from LIBOR to the Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("Term SOFR") and elected the optional expedients under the standard effective as of July 1, 2023. This adoption did not have any impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

2.    Business Combinations
BST Acquisition
On May 8, 2023, the Company acquired 100 percent of Benefits Science LLC ("Benefits Science Technologies" or "BST"), a Texas limited liability company offering next generation data and advanced analytics services for $160.5 million, net of acquired cash, consisting of $141.3 million in cash and $19.2 million in Company Class A common stock. This acquisition adds enhanced data and analytics capabilities to our existing services.
The BST acquisition was accounted for as a business combination using the acquisition method of accounting. As a result of the BST acquisition and the application of purchase accounting, BST's identifiable assets and liabilities were adjusted to their fair market value as of the acquisition date. For income tax purposes, the acquisition of BST is treated as the acquisition of partnership interests. The resulting intangible assets are amortizable for income tax purposes.
Following the consummation of the transactions, the Company will enter into separately recognized transactions with key employees and service providers of BST who will be employed or engaged by the Company, and will be eligible to participate in a long-term incentive and retention program. Pursuant to this incentive and retention program, cash payments will be made to such participant if: (i) subject to limited exceptions, such participant remains employed or engaged by the Company through the date of payment; and (ii) certain threshold, target and maximum annual recurring revenue targets relating to the business of BST are met over three to five years. The aggregate potential cash payments under this plan are $66.0 million if the target annual recurring revenue targets are achieved, with additional aggregate potential cash payments of $16.5 million if the maximum annual recurring revenue targets are achieved. If a minimum threshold as a percentage of target annual recurring revenue is not achieved, no cash payments will be due. The Company will account for the incentive payments as post-combination compensation costs.
The following table summarizes the consideration transferred to acquire BST and the amounts of identified assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the acquisition date (in thousands):

(1)Beginning December 31, 2021 and quarterly thereafter, we will repay a principal amount of the Term Loan B equal to 0.25% of the initial aggregate principal of $1,325.0 million. These scheduled principal repayments may be reduced by any voluntary or mandatory prepayments made in accordance with the credit agreement.
(2)Interest on Term Loan B and Revolver B is calculated, at MPH's option, as (a) LIBOR (or, with respect to the term loan facility only, 0.50%, whichever is higher), plus the applicable margin, or (b) the highest rate of (1) prime rate, (2) the federal funds effective rate, plus 0.50%, (3) the LIBOR for an interest period of one month, plus 1.00% and (4) 0.50% for Term Loan B and 1.00% for Revolver B, in each case, plus an applicable margin of 4.25% for Term Loan B and between 3.50% and 4.00% for Revolver B, depending on MPH's first lien debt to consolidated EBITDA ratio. The interest rate in effect for Term Loan B was 9.73% as of June 30, 2023. Effective as of July 1, 2023, LIBOR will be replaced by Term SOFR as described in the New Accounting Pronouncements Adopted section of Note 1 General Information and Basis of Accounting.
(3)The Senior Convertible PIK Notes are convertible into shares of Class A common stock based on a $13.00 conversion price, subject to customary anti-dilution adjustments.
During the six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company purchased and cancelled $137.8 million of the 5.750% Notes, resulting in the recognition of a gain on extinguishment of $36.8 million, which is included in gain on extinguishment of debt in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statements of (loss) income and comprehensive (loss) income.

Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements


As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company was in compliance with all of the debt covenants. See our discussion of Debt Covenants and Events of Default provided in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations”.
4.    Private Placement Warrants and Unvested Founder Shares
The Company classifies the Private Placement Warrants and Unvested Founder Shares as a liability on its unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets as these instruments are precluded from being indexed to our own stock given the terms allow for a settlement that does not meet the scope of the fixed-for-fixed exception in Accounting Standards Codification 815.
The Private Placement Warrants and Unvested Founder Shares were initially recorded at fair value on the date of consummation of the Transactions and are subsequently adjusted to fair value at each subsequent reporting date. The fair value of the Unvested Founder Shares and unvested Private Placement Warrants is obtained using a Monte Carlo model and the fair value of the remaining Private Placement Warrants is obtained using a Black Scholes model, together referenced as the "option pricing" model. The Company will continue to adjust the liability for changes in fair value for the founder shares until the earlier of the re-vesting or forfeiture of these instruments. The Company will continue to adjust the liability for changes in fair value for the Private Placement Warrants until the warrant is equity classified.
As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the fair value of the Private Placement Warrants and the Unvested Founder Shares were:
(in thousands)June 30, 2023December 31, 2022
Private Placement Warrants$1,859 $953 
Unvested Founder Shares$2,977 $1,489 
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, the change in fair values was primarily due to the increase in the price of the Company's Class A common stock over that period. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statements of (loss) income and comprehensive (loss) income include losses (gains) related to the change in fair value of the Private Placement Warrants and Unvested Founder Shares for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 as follows:
Three Months Ended June 30,Six Months Ended June 30,
(in thousands)2023202220232022
Private Placement Warrants$143 $932 $905 $(7,840)
Unvested Founder Shares620 4,217 1,489 248 
Loss (gain) on change in fair value of Private Placement Warrants and Unvested Founder Shares$763 $5,149 $2,394 $(7,592)
5.    Fair Value Measurements
Fair value measurements are based on the premise that fair value represents an exit price representing the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. As such, fair value is a market-based measurement that should be determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. As a basis for considering such assumptions, the following three-tier fair value hierarchy has been used in determining the inputs used in measuring fair value:
Level 1 — Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities on the reporting date.
Level 2 — Inputs, other than quoted prices in active markets (Level 1), that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly.
Level 3 — Unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which require the entity to develop its own assumptions

Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements


Financial instruments
Certain financial instruments which are not measured at fair value on a recurring basis include cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable, which approximate fair value due to their short-term nature. The financial instrument that potentially subjects the Company to concentrations of credit risk consists primarily of accounts receivable.
Cash and cash equivalents as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 included money market funds of $25.0 million and $250.0 million, respectively, which were valued based on Level 1 measurements using quoted prices in active markets for identical assets.
As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company's carrying amount and fair value of long-term debt consisted of the following:

Total Liabilities$4,646,115 $3,704,352 $4,787,547 $3,552,570 
We estimate the fair value of long-term debt, including current maturities of finance lease obligations, using quoted prices in active markets. As such, this is considered a Level 1 fair value measurement.
Recurring fair value measurements
The Private Placement Warrants and Unvested Founder Shares are measured at fair value on a recurring basis. The fair value of these instruments was determined based on significant inputs not observable in the market which would represent a level 3 measurement within the fair value hierarchy. The Company uses an option pricing simulation to estimate the fair value of these instruments.
Non-recurring fair value measurements
We also measure certain non-financial assets at fair value on a nonrecurring basis, primarily goodwill and long-lived tangible and intangible assets, in connection with periodic evaluations for potential impairment. We estimate the fair value of these assets using primarily unobservable inputs and, as such, these are considered Level 3 fair value measurements. There were no impairment charges for these assets for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and $662.2 million impairment charges for fiscal year 2022.
Our non-marketable equity securities using the measurement alternative are adjusted to fair value on a non-recurring basis. Adjustments are made when observable transactions for identical or similar investments of the same issuer occur, or due to impairment. These securities are classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy because we estimate the value based on valuation methods using the observable transaction price at the transaction date. At June 30, 2023, the carrying amount of these alternative investments, recorded under Other assets, net in the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets, was $15.0 million. There were no write-ups due to observable price changes or write-downs due to impairment in the current period.
6.    Commitments and Contingencies
Commitments
The Company has certain irrevocable letters of credit used to satisfy real estate lease agreements for three of our offices in lieu of security deposits in the amount of $1.8 million outstanding as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022.

Claims and Litigation
The Company is a defendant in various lawsuits and other pending and threatened litigation and other adversarial matters as well as regulatory investigations, all of which have arisen in the ordinary course of business. While the ultimate outcome with respect to such proceedings cannot be predicted with certainty, the Company does not believe they will result, individually or in the aggregate, in a material adverse effect upon our financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows.
On March 25, 2021 and April 9, 2021, we were named as a defendant in two putative class action lawsuits relating to the Transactions that were then consolidated under the caption In Re MultiPlan Corp. Stockholders Litigation, Consolidated C.A. No. 2021-0300-LWW (Del.Ch) ("Delaware Stockholder Litigation"). The Delaware Stockholder Litigation asserted breach of fiduciary duty claims and aiding and abetting breach of fiduciary duty claims against the former directors of the Churchill board, the Sponsor, KG and M. Klein (collectively, the "Churchill Defendants") and the Company. The Delaware Stockholder Litigation complaint alleged that the Transactions were a product of an unfair process by Churchill, which was allegedly impacted by conflicts of interest, resulting in mispricing of the Transactions. The complaint sought, among other things, damages, certain equitable relief including the reopening of redemptions, and attorneys’ fees and costs. The Company and the Churchill Defendants filed motions to dismiss the complaint. On January 3, 2022, the Chancery Court issued a ruling granting in part the Company’s motion to dismiss and denying the motion to dismiss filed by the Churchill Defendants.
While the Company was dismissed from the Delaware Stockholder Litigation, the consolidated lawsuit proceeded against the Churchill Defendants. We had previously agreed to indemnify certain of the Churchill Defendants with respect to the Delaware Stockholder Litigation.
On November 17, 2022, the Company and the parties to the Delaware Stockholder Litigation entered into a settlement agreement to fully and finally resolve the Delaware Stockholder Litigation. In connection with the settlement, the Company and its insurers paid $33.75 million in exchange for a broad release of all claims related to the business combination and ownership of Churchill stock and warrants from February 19, 2020 through October 8, 2020. The settlement was paid pursuant to the Company’s indemnification obligations and from available director and officer insurance policies.
On February 28, 2023, the Delaware Court of Chancery held a settlement hearing relating to the Delaware Stockholder Litigation and approved the settlement, with the court ruling becoming final 30 days thereafter. As a result, the Delaware Stockholder Litigation has been resolved.
We accrue for costs associated with certain contingencies, including, but not limited to, settlement of legal proceedings, regulatory compliance matters and self-insurance exposures when such costs are probable and reasonably estimable. Such accruals are included in accrued legal contingencies on the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. In addition, we accrue for legal fees incurred in defense of asserted litigation and regulatory matters as such legal fees are incurred. To the extent it is probable under our existing insurance coverage that we are able to recover losses and legal fees related to contingencies, we record such recoveries concurrently with the accrual of the related loss or legal fees. Significant management judgment is required to estimate the amounts of such contingent liabilities and the related insurance recoveries. In our determination of the probability and ability to estimate contingent liabilities and related insurance recoveries we consider the following: litigation exposure based on currently available information, consultations with external legal counsel, adequacy and applicability of existing insurance coverage and other pertinent facts and circumstances regarding the contingency. Liabilities established to provide for contingencies are adjusted as further information develops, circumstances change, or contingencies are resolved; and such changes are recorded in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statements of (loss) income and comprehensive (loss) income during the period of the change and appropriately reflected in accrued legal contingencies on the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets.
7.    Shareholder's Equity
On February 27, 2023, the Board approved a repurchase program, authorizing, but not obligating, the Company's repurchase of up to an aggregate amount of $100 million of its Class A common stock from time to time through December 31, 2023. As of June 30, 2023, the Company has spent $13.1 million, including commissions, for the repurchase of its Class A common stock as part of this program using cash on hand.
On May 8, 2023, the Company issued stock consideration of 21,588,652 shares of Company Class A common stock for the acquisition of BST.

As of the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, we have excluded from the calculation of diluted net (loss) income per share the instruments whose effect would have been anti-dilutive, including (i) 58,500,000 warrants outstanding, (ii) 100,000,000 shares which may be issued upon conversion of the Senior Convertible PIK Notes, and (iii) 12,404,080 Unvested Founder Shares. Additionally, we have excluded from the calculation of diluted net (loss) income per share awards within the 2020 Omnibus Incentive Plan, whose effect would have been anti-dilutive of 12,939,954 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022.
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, potentially dilutive securities were excluded from the calculation of diluted net loss per share, as their effect would have been anti-dilutive given the Company's losses incurred. Therefore, the weighted average number of shares outstanding used to calculate both basic and diluted net loss per share is the same.
9.    Related Party Transactions
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statements of (loss) income and comprehensive (loss) income include related party expenses of $92,000 and $155,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023. These expenses are associated with a software license from Abacus Insights, Inc., customer service software and captive management services from companies controlled by Hellman & Friedman LLC. No related party expenses were incurred during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022.
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets include prepaid expenses of $140,000 and zero from related parties as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.

Company Overview
MultiPlan is a leading provider of data analytics and technology-enabled solutions designed to bring affordability, efficiency and fairness to the U.S. healthcare industry. We do so through services focused on reducing medical cost and improving payment accuracy for the Payors of healthcare, which are primarily health insurers, self-insured employers, federal and state government-sponsored health plans and other health plan sponsors (typically through their health plan administrators), and, indirectly, the plan members who are the consumers of healthcare services.
MultiPlan was founded in 1980 as a New York-based hospital network and has evolved both organically and through acquisition into an integrated data and analytics platform offering a suite of services, which efficiently address the cost of medical services. MultiPlan offers services to our customers in three categories:
Analytics-Based Services: a suite of data-driven algorithms and insights that detect claims over-charges and either negotiate or recommend fair reimbursement for out-of-network medical costs using a variety of data sources and pricing algorithms. These services are applied prior to the payment of the claim and are often processed within a day of receipt;
Network-Based Services: contracted discounts with healthcare providers to form one of the largest independent preferred provider organizations ("PPO") in the United States with over 1.3 million providers under contract, as well as outsourced network development and/or management services. These services are applied prior to the payment of the claim and are typically processed within a day of receipt; and
Payment and Revenue Integrity Services: data, technology, and clinical expertise deployed to identify and remove improper and unnecessary charges before or after claims are paid, or to identify and help restore and preserve underpaid premium dollars.
21


MultiPlan sits at the nexus of four constituencies (Payors, employers/plan sponsors, plan members and providers) and offers an independent reimbursement solution to reduce healthcare costs in a manner that is systematic, efficient and fair to all parties involved. Although the end beneficiaries of our services are employers and other plan sponsors and their health plan members, our direct customers are typically health plan administrators ("Payors") who go out to market with our services. Over the last 40+ years, we have developed a platform that offers these Payors a single interface to a comprehensive set of services, which are used in combination or individually to reduce the medical cost burden on their health plan customers and members while fostering independently developed fair and efficient reimbursements to healthcare providers. These comprehensive offerings have enabled us to maintain long-term relationships with a number of our customers, including relationships of over 25 years with some of the nation's largest Payors. For the six months ended June 30, 2023 and year ended December 31, 2022, our comprehensive services identified approximately $11.2 billion and $22.3 billion in potential medical cost savings, respectively.
We believe our solutions provide a strong value proposition to Payors, their health plan customers and healthcare consumers, as well as to providers. Overall, our service offerings aim to reduce healthcare costs in a manner that is orderly, efficient and fair to all parties. In addition, because in most instances the fee for our services is directly linked to the savings we identify, our revenue model is aligned with the interests of our customers.
Factors Affecting Our Results of Operations
BST Acquisition
On May 8, 2023, the Company acquired BST, a company offering next generation data and advanced analytics services. The financial results of BST are contained in our Analytics-Based Services service line.
Through June 30, 2023, BST's impact on revenues, net earnings, and results of operations was not material.
Medical Cost Savings
Our business and revenues are driven by the ability to lower medical costs through claims savings for our customers. The medical charges of those claims can influence our ability to generate claim savings.
The following table presents the medical charges processed and the potential savings identified for the periods presented:

Medical charges processed represent the aggregate dollar amount of claims processed by our cost management and payment accuracy solutions in the period presented. The dollar amount of the claim for purposes of this calculation is the dollar amount of the claim prior to any reductions that may be made as a result of the claim being processed by our solutions. The table above does not include any medical charges processed for BST as BST is a fee-based subscription service and there are no medical charges to report relative to their revenues.
Potential medical cost savings represent the aggregate amount of potential savings in dollars identified by our cost management and payment accuracy solutions in the period presented. Since certain of our fees are based on the amount of savings achieved by our customers, and our customers are the final adjudicator of the claims and may choose not to reduce
22


claims or reduce claims by only a portion of the potential savings identified, potential medical cost savings may not directly correlate with the amount of fees earned in connection with the processing of such claims. The table above does not include any potential medical cost savings for BST as BST is a fee-based subscription service and there are no potential medical cost savings to report relative to their revenues.
Components of Results of Operations
Revenues
We generate revenues from several sources including: (i) Network-Based Services that process claims at a discount compared to billed fee-for-service rates and by using an extensive network, (ii) Analytics-Based Services that use our leading and proprietary information technology platform to offer customers solutions to reduce medical costs, and (iii) Payment and Revenue Integrity Services that use data, technology, and clinical expertise to identify improper, unnecessary and excessive charges. Payors typically compensate us through either a PSAV achieved or a PEPM rate.
Costs of Services (exclusive of depreciation and amortization of intangible assets)
Costs of services (exclusive of depreciation and amortization of intangible assets) consist of all costs specifically associated with claims processing activities for customers, sales and marketing, and the development and maintenance of our networks, analytics-based services, and payment and revenue integrity services. Two of the largest components in costs of services are personnel expenses and access and bill review fees. Access and bill review fees include fees for accessing non-owned third-party provider networks, expenses associated with vendor fees for database access and systems technology used to reprice claims, and outsourced services. Third-party network expenses are fees paid to non-owned provider networks used to supplement our owned network assets to provide more network claim savings to our customers.
General and Administrative Expenses
General and administrative expenses include corporate management and governance functions composed of general management, legal, treasury, tax, real estate, financial reporting, auditing, benefits and human resource administration, communications, public relations, billing and information management. In addition, general and administrative expenses include taxes, insurance, advertising, transaction costs, and other general expenses.
Depreciation Expense
Depreciation expense consists of depreciation and amortization of property and equipment related to our investments in leasehold improvements, furniture and equipment, computer hardware and software, and internally generated capitalized software development costs. We provide for depreciation and amortization on property and equipment using the straight-line method to allocate the cost of depreciable assets over their estimated useful lives.
Amortization of intangible assets
Amortization of intangible assets includes amortization of the value of our customer relationships, provider network, technology, and trademarks which were identified in valuing the intangible assets in connection with the June 6, 2016 acquisition by H&F and its affiliates, as well as the acquisitions of HST and DHP by the Company.
Interest expense
Interest expense consists of accrued interest and related interest payments on our outstanding long-term debt and amortization of debt issuance costs and discounts.
Interest income
Interest income consists primarily of bank interest.
Gain on extinguishment of debt
The Company recognizes a gain on extinguishment of debt for the difference between the reacquisition price of the debt and the net carrying amount of the extinguished debt.
23


Change in fair value of Private Placement Warrants and Unvested Founder Shares
The Company re-measures at each reporting period the fair value of the Private Placement Warrants and Unvested Founder Shares. The changes in fair value are primarily due to the changes in the stock price of the Company's Class A common stock, changes in expected stock volatility and the passage of time.
Income tax (benefit) expense
Income tax (benefit) expense consists of federal, state, and local income taxes.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
We use EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EPS to evaluate our financial performance. EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EPS are financial measures that are not presented in accordance with GAAP. We believe the presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures provides useful information to investors in assessing our financial condition and results of operations across reporting periods on a consistent basis by excluding items that we do not believe are indicative of our financial operating results of our core business.
These measurements of financial performance have important limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Additionally, they may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. Some of these limitations are:
such measures do not reflect our cash expenditures or future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments;
such measures do not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs;
such measures do not reflect the significant interest expense, or cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments on our debt;
such measures do not reflect any cash requirements for any future replacement of depreciated assets;
such measures do not reflect the impact of stock-based compensation upon our results of operations;
such measures do not reflect our income tax (benefit) expense or the cash requirements to pay our income taxes;
such measures do not reflect the impact of certain cash charges resulting from matters we consider not to be indicative of our ongoing operations; and
other companies in our industry may calculate these measures differently from how we do, limiting their usefulness as a comparative measure.
In evaluating EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EPS, you should be aware that in the future we may incur expenses similar to those eliminated in the presentation.
EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, and Adjusted EPS are widely used measures of corporate profitability eliminating the effects of financing and capital expenditures from the operating results. We define EBITDA as net (loss) income adjusted for interest expense, interest income, income tax expense (benefit), depreciation, amortization of intangible assets, and non-income taxes. We define Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA further adjusted to eliminate the impact of certain items that we do not consider to be indicative of our core business, including other expenses, net, loss (gain) on change in fair value of Private Placement Warrants and Unvested Founder Shares, transaction related expenses, (gain) loss on debt extinguishment, (gain) loss on investments, and stock-based compensation. See our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report for more information regarding these adjustments. Adjusted EBITDA is used in our agreements governing our outstanding indebtedness for debt covenant compliance purposes. Our Adjusted EBITDA calculation is consistent with the definition of Adjusted EBITDA used in our debt instruments.
Adjusted EPS is used in reporting to our Board and executive management and as a component of the measurement of our performance. We believe that this measure provides useful information to investors because it is the profitability measure we use to evaluate earnings performance on a comparable year-to-year basis. Adjusted EPS is defined as net (loss) income adjusted for amortization of intangible assets, stock-based compensation, transaction related expenses, (gain) loss on debt extinguishment, (gain) loss on investments, other expense, loss (gain) on change in fair value of Private Placement Warrants

____________________
Material differences between MultiPlan Corporation and MPH for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 include differences in interest expense, change in fair value of Private Placement Warrants and Unvested Founder Shares, and stock-based compensation. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, interest expense for MultiPlan Corporation was $20.6 million and $41.2 million, respectively, higher than interest expense for MPH due to interest expense incurred by MultiPlan Corporation on the Senior Convertible PIK Notes. The loss (gain) on change in fair value of Private Placement Warrants and Unvested Founder Shares and stock-based compensation are recorded in the parent company MultiPlan Corporation and not in the MPH operating company and therefore the entire amount represents differences between MultiPlan Corporation and MPH. In the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and June 30, 2022, EBITDA expenses for MPH were higher than MultiPlan Corporation by $1.0 million and $1.9 million, respectively, primarily due to insurance premiums paid to our captive insurance company, net of related captive insurance company costs, which are eliminated in the consolidated financial reporting of MultiPlan Corporation.

Factors Affecting the Comparability of our Results of Operations
As a result of a number of factors, our historical results of operations may not be comparable to our results of operations in future periods and may not be directly comparable from period to period. Set forth below is a brief discussion of the key factors impacting the comparability of our results of operations.
BST Acquisition
On May 8, 2023, the Company acquired BST. The financial results of BST are contained in our Analytics-Based Services service line. The results of operations and financial condition of BST have been included in the Company's consolidated results from the date of acquisition. In connection with the BST acquisition, the Company incurred transaction costs. The transaction costs have been expensed as incurred and these amounts totaling $6.8 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, are included in general and administrative expenses. In addition, certain acquired expenses from the acquisition of BST are included in cost of services and general and administrative expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023.
Debt Repurchase and Cancellation
During the six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company repurchased and cancelled $137.8 million of the 5.750% Notes, resulting in the recognition of a gain on debt extinguishment of $36.8 million, representing the difference between the reacquisition price of the debt and the net carrying amount of the extinguished debt.
In the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company repurchased in the open market and cancelled $136.2 million of the 5.750% Notes, resulting in the recognition of a gain on extinguishment of debt of $34.6 million.
Floating Rate Debt
Term Loan B has a variable interest rate and as LIBOR interest rates have increased, our annualized weighted average cash interest rate increased by 1.11% during the three months ended June 30, 2023, as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2022. As of June 30, 2023, our total debt had an annualized weighted average cash interest rate of 6.91%, as compared to 5.80% as of June 30, 2022.

The increases in costs of services of $9.0 million, or 18.1%, and $16.8 million, or 17.3% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, as compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively, were primarily due to increases in personnel expenses from increases in employee headcount and year-over-year increases in compensation and related fringe benefits, as well as acquired costs of services expenses from the acquisition of BST of $1.1 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023. Increases in access and bill review fees for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 were primarily due to increases in claims processing expenses as a result of increased volume.

The decrease of $0.3 million, or 0.8%, in general and administrative expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2023, as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2022 was primarily due to net decreases in personnel expenses net of capitalized development of $5.0 million and decreases in the loss on disposal of assets of $2.2 million, offset by increases in transaction costs of $5.4 million primarily related to the acquisition of BST, and acquired general and administrative expenses from the acquisition of BST of $1.5 million.
The decrease of $1.5 million, or 2.0%, in general and administrative expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2023, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022 was primarily due to net decreases in personnel expenses net of capitalized development of $5.1 million, decreases in insurance of $1.8 million, and decreases in loss on disposal of assets of $2.4 million, offset by increases in transaction costs of $3.8 million primarily related to the acquisition of BST, professional fees of $2.1 million, primarily outside accrued legal contingencies, and acquired general and administrative expenses from the acquisition of BST of $1.5 million and other net increases in general and administrative expenses of $0.4 million.
Depreciation Expense
The increase of $1.7 million, or 10.1%, and $3.3 million, or 9.9%, in depreciation expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 were due to purchases of property and equipment, including internally generated capitalized software in the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and year-ended December 31, 2022, respectively, partially offset by assets that were written-off or became fully depreciated in the period.
Amortization of Intangible Assets
Amortization of intangible assets was relatively flat for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2022.
Interest Expense
The increase in interest expense of $9.8 million, or 13.5%, and $21.8 million, or 15.1% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, as compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively were primarily due to the increase in LIBOR on our Term Loan B, offset by reductions in interest expense due to the repurchase and cancellation of our 5.750% Notes. Our annualized weighted average cash interest rate increased by 1.11% across our total debt in the six months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the same period in prior year.
As of June 30, 2023, our long-term debt was $4,603.6 million and included (i) $1,288.6 million Term Loan B, excluding the current portion of Term Loan B of $13.3 million, (ii) $1,050.0 million of 5.50% Senior Secured Notes, (iii) $1,026.0 million of 5.750% Notes, (iv) $1,300.0 million of Senior Convertible PIK Notes, and net of (v) discount on Term Loan B of $10.2 million, (vi) discount on Senior Convertible PIK Notes of $21.4 million, and (vii) debt issue costs of $29.3 million. As of June 30, 2023, our total debt had an annualized weighted average cash interest rate of 6.91%. As of June 30, 2022, our total debt had an annualized weighted average cash interest rate of 5.80%.
As of December 31, 2022, our long-term debt was $4,741.9 million and included (i) $1,295.2 million Term Loan B, excluding the current portion of Term Loan B of $13.3 million, (ii) $1,050.0 million of 5.50% Senior Secured Notes, (iii) $1,163.8 million of 5.750% Notes, (iv) $1,300.0 million of Senior Convertible PIK Notes, and net of (v) discount on Term Loan B of $11.1 million, (vi) discount on Senior Convertible PIK Notes of $23.6 million, and (vii) debt issue costs of $32.4 million. As of December 31, 2022, our total debt had a weighted average cash interest rate of 6.67%.
Gain on extinguishment of debt
During the six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company repurchased and cancelled $137.8 million of the 5.750% Notes, resulting in the recognition of a gain on debt extinguishment of $36.8 million, representing the difference between the reacquisition price of the debt and the net carrying amount of the extinguished debt.
Change in fair value of Private Placement Warrants and Unvested Founder Shares
The Company re-measures the fair value of the Private Placement Warrants and Unvested Founder Shares at each reporting period. From December 31, 2022 to June 30, 2023, the fair value of the Private Placement Warrants increased by $0.9 million and the fair value of the Unvested Founder Shares increased by $1.5 million. The increase was primarily due to the increase in the price of the Company's Class A common stock over that period.

(Benefit) provision for income taxes
Net loss before income taxes for the three months ended June 30, 2023 of $46.2 million generated a benefit for income taxes of $9.8 million. Net income before income taxes for the three months ended June 30, 2022 of $20.0 million generated a provision for income taxes of $6.5 million.
Net loss before income taxes for the six months ended June 30, 2023 of $44.3 million generated a benefit for income taxes of $8.1 million. Net income before income taxes for the six months ended June 30, 2022 of $78.2 million generated a provision for income taxes of $20.7 million.
The effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2023 differed from the statutory rate primarily due to stock compensation expense, non-deductible mark-to-market liability, non-deductible transaction costs due to the BST acquisition and state tax expense. The effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2022 differed from the statutory rate primarily due to a non-deductible mark-to-market liability, limitations on executive compensation and state tax expense.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of June 30, 2023, we had cash and cash equivalents of $95.9 million, which includes restricted cash of $6.1 million, and $448.2 million of loan availability under the revolving credit facility. As of June 30, 2023, we have three letters of credit totaling $1.8 million of utilization against the revolving credit facility. The three letters of credit are used to satisfy real estate lease agreements for three of our offices in lieu of security deposits.
On February 27, 2023, the Company's Board of Directors approved a share repurchase program authorizing the Company to repurchase up to $100 million of its Class A common stock from time to time in open market transactions. The repurchase program was effective immediately and expires on December 31, 2023. As of June 30, 2023, the Company has repurchased its Class A common stock as part of this program using cash on hand for an aggregate amount of $13.1 million, including commissions.
On May 8, 2023, we paid cash consideration in an aggregate amount of $141.3 million for the acquisition of BST. We funded this cash consideration with cash on hand.
Our primary sources of liquidity are internally generated funds combined with our borrowing capacity under our revolving credit facility. We believe that these sources will provide sufficient liquidity for us to meet our working capital, capital expenditure and other cash requirements for at least the next twelve months. We may from time to time at our sole discretion, purchase, redeem, repay or retire our long-term debt, through tender offers, in privately negotiated or open market transactions or otherwise. We plan to finance our capital expenditures with cash from operations. Furthermore, our future liquidity and future ability to fund capital expenditures, working capital and debt requirements are also dependent upon our future financial performance, which is subject to many economic, commercial, financial and other factors that are beyond our control, including the ability of financial institutions to meet their lending obligations to us. If those factors significantly change, our business may not be able to generate sufficient cash flow from operations or future borrowings may not be available to meet our liquidity needs. We anticipate that to the extent we require additional liquidity as a result of these factors or in order to execute our strategy, it would be financed either by borrowings under our senior secured credit facilities, by other indebtedness, additional equity financings or a combination of the foregoing. We may be unable to obtain any such additional financing on reasonable terms or at all.

Cash Flows from Operating Activities
Cash flows from operating activities provided $71.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and $235.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022. This decrease of $163.7 million, or 69.5%, in cash flows from operating activities was primarily the result of decreases in net income of $93.7 million, changes in net working capital of $57.9 million, and decreases in adjustments for non-cash items of $12.2 million.
The $12.2 million decrease in non-cash items was primarily due to gain on extinguishment of debt of $36.8 million and loss on disposal of property and equipment of $2.5 million, offset by increases in deferred income taxes of $12.3 million, increases in the loss (gain) on change in fair value of Private Placement Warrants and Unvested Founder Shares of $10.0 million, increases in depreciation of $3.3 million and increases in stock-based compensation of $1.3 million.
During the six months ended June 30, 2023, $35.0 million was used by changes in net working capital primarily due to increases in prepaid taxes of $15.8 million, decreases of $21.5 million of accrued legal contingencies, and $6.8 million in accrued compensation expense primarily related to the Company's incentive compensation program decreases in operating lease obligations of $3.5 million, partially offset by decreases in accounts receivable of $11.1 million and increases in accounts payable of $2.2 million.
During the six months ended June 30, 2022, $22.9 million was provided by changes in net working capital primarily due to increases in accounts payable and accrued expenses and other expenses of $7.5 million, decreases in prepaid expenses and other assets of $9.9 million, decreases in prepaid taxes of $5.1 million, and decreases in net accounts receivable of $5.9 million primarily due to the timing of collections, offset by decreases in operating lease obligations of $5.4 million. The increase in accounts payable and accrued expenses and other expenses of $7.5 million was primarily due to increases of $5.3 million in accrued compensation expenses primarily related to the Company's employee bonus program and $3.1 million related to the timing of tax payments throughout the year which increased our liabilities, offset by decreases in other accrued expenses of $0.9 million.
Cash Flows from Investing Activities
For the six months ended June 30, 2023, net cash of $196.4 million was used in investing activities including $55.1 million for purchases of property and equipment and capitalization of software development and $141.3 million for the acquisition of BST. For the six months ended June 30, 2022, net cash of $58.1 million was used in investing activities including $43.4 million for purchases of property and equipment and capitalization of software development and the $15.0 million equity investment in Abacus.
Cash Flows from Financing Activities
Cash flows used in financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2023 were $120.2 million primarily consisting of $100.0 million for the repurchase of 5.750% Notes, $13.1 million purchase of treasury stock, including commissions, $6.6 million repayments of Term Loan B and $0.5 million of taxes paid on net settlement of vested share awards.
Cash flows used in financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2022 were $8.8 million consisting of $6.6 million repayments of Term Loan B and $2.2 million of taxes paid on net settlement of vested share awards.
Term Loans and Revolvers
On August 24, 2021, MPH issued new senior secured credit facilities composed of $1,325.0 million of Term Loan B, $450.0 million of Revolver B, and $1,050.0 million in aggregate principal amount of 5.50% Senior Secured Notes. MPH used the net proceeds from Term Loan B, issued with a discount of 1.00%, and the 5.50% Senior Secured Notes to repay all of the outstanding balance of its Term Loan G of $2,341.0 million, and pay fees and expenses in connection therewith.
Interest on Term Loan B and Revolver B is calculated, at MPH's option, as (a) LIBOR (or, with respect to Term Loan B only, 0.50%, if higher), plus the applicable margin, or (b) the highest rate of (1) the prime rate, (2) the federal funds effective rate, plus 0.50%, (3) the LIBOR for an interest period of one month plus 1.00% and (4) 0.50% for Term Loan B and 1.00% for Revolver B, in each case, plus an applicable margin of 4.25% for Term Loan B and between 3.50% and 4.00% for Revolver B, depending on MPH's first lien debt to consolidated EBITDA ratio. The interest rate in effect for Term Loan B was 9.73% and 5.82% as of June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.
Term Loan B matures on September 1, 2028 and Revolver B matures on August 24, 2026.
The Company transitioned from LIBOR to Term SOFR effective July 1, 2023.

We are obligated to pay a commitment fee on the average daily unused amount of our revolving credit facility. The annual commitment fee rate was 0.50% at June 30, 2023 and 0.25% at December 31, 2022. The fee can range from an annual rate of 0.25% to 0.50% based on our leverage ratio, as defined in the agreement.

During 2022, the Company repurchased and cancelled $136.2 million of the 5.750% Notes, resulting in the recognition of a gain on debt extinguishment of $34.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2022.
During the six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company repurchased and cancelled $137.8 million of the 5.750% Notes, resulting in the recognition of a gain on debt extinguishment of $36.8 million.

amount greater than 35% of the total commitments in respect of the revolving credit facility at such time, the revolving credit facility will require MPH to maintain a maximum first lien secured leverage ratio of 6.75 to 1.00. Our consolidated first lien debt to consolidated EBITDA ratio is 3.54 times, 2.30 times, and 2.64 times as of June 30, 2023, June 30, 2022, and December 31, 2022, respectively.

Critical Accounting Policies
In preparing our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, we are required to make judgments, assumptions and estimates, which we believe are reasonable and prudent based on the available facts and circumstances. These judgments, assumptions and estimates affect certain of our revenues and expenses and their related balance sheet accounts and disclosure of our contingent liabilities. We base our assumptions and estimates primarily on historical experience and consider known and projected trends. On an ongoing basis, we re-evaluate our selection of assumptions and the method of calculating our estimates. Actual results, however, may materially differ from our calculated estimates, and this difference would be reported in our current operations.
For a detailed description of our critical accounting estimates, see “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in Part II, Item 7 in our 2022 Annual Report. For a detailed discussion of our significant accounting policies, see Note 2 of Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements in Part II, Item 8, “Financial Statements and Supplementary Data” in our 2022 Annual Report. As of June 30, 2023, our critical accounting policies and estimates have not changed from those described in our 2022 Annual Report.
Customer Concentration
Three customers individually accounted for 32%, 20% and 10% of revenues for the year ended December 31, 2022. The loss of the business of one or more of our larger customers could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations. For further discussion on our customer concentration, please refer to Item 1A. “Risk Factors” in our 2022 Annual Report.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Reference is made to our 2022 Annual Report and in particular Item 7A.“Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure about Market Risk” therein. As of June 30, 2023, there were no material changes in the market risks described in our 2022 Annual Report.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial and accounting officer, the Company conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report, as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act.
Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial and accounting officers have concluded that, as of June 30, 2023, our disclosure controls and procedures were designed at a reasonable assurance level and were effective to provide reasonable assurance that the information we are required to disclose in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial and accounting officers, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting during the six months ended June 30, 2023 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
Inherent Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls
Management recognizes that a control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud or error, if any, have been detected.

Part II - Other Information
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
We are a defendant in various lawsuits and other pending and threatened litigation and other adversarial matters as well as regulatory investigations, all of which have arisen in the ordinary course of business. While the ultimate outcome with respect to such proceedings cannot be predicted with certainty, we believe they will not have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations.
On March 25, 2021 and April 9, 2021, we were named as a defendant in two putative class action lawsuits relating to the Transactions that were then consolidated under the caption In Re MultiPlan Corp. Stockholders Litigation, Consolidated C.A. No. 2021-0300-LWW (Del.Ch) ("Delaware Stockholder Litigation"). The Delaware Stockholder Litigation asserted breach of fiduciary duty claims and aiding and abetting breach of fiduciary duty claims against the former directors of the Churchill board, the Sponsor, KG and M. Klein (collectively, the "Churchill Defendants") and the Company. The Delaware Stockholder Litigation complaint alleged that the Transactions were a product of an unfair process by Churchill, which was allegedly impacted by conflicts of interest, resulting in mispricing of the Transactions. The complaint sought, among other things, damages, certain equitable relief including the reopening of redemptions, and attorneys’ fees and costs. The Company and the Churchill Defendants filed motions to dismiss the complaint. On January 3, 2022, the Chancery Court issued a ruling granting in part the Company’s motion to dismiss and denying the motion to dismiss filed by the Churchill Defendants.
While the Company was dismissed from the Delaware Stockholder Litigation, the consolidated lawsuit proceeded against the Churchill Defendants. We had previously agreed to indemnify certain of the Churchill Defendants with respect to the Delaware Stockholder Litigation.
On November 17, 2022, the Company and the parties to the Delaware Stockholder Litigation entered into a settlement agreement to fully and finally resolve the Delaware Stockholder Litigation. In connection with the settlement, the Company and its insurers paid $33.75 million in exchange for a broad release of all claims related to the business combination and ownership of Churchill stock and warrants from February 19, 2020 through October 8, 2020. The settlement was paid pursuant to the Company’s indemnification obligations and from available director and officer insurance policies.
On February 28, 2023, the Delaware Court of Chancery held a settlement hearing relating to the Delaware Stockholder Litigation and approved the settlement, with the court ruling becoming final 30 days thereafter. As a result, the Delaware Stockholder Litigation has been resolved.
During the six months ended June 30, 2023 the Company paid the settlement of the Delaware Stockholder Litigation. The Company has also incurred legal expenses in connection with the Delaware Stockholder Litigation, which have been expensed as incurred and are included in general and administrative expenses in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of (loss) income and comprehensive (loss) income.
