NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(in thousands, except per share amounts)

1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The condensed consolidated balance sheets and related condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income, stockholders’ equity and cash flows contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (this “Quarterly Report”), which are unaudited, include the accounts of AMN Healthcare Services, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”). All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. In the opinion of management, all entries necessary for a fair presentation of such unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been included. These entries consisted of all normal recurring items. The results of operations for the interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for any other interim period or for the entire fiscal year or for any future period.

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all information and notes necessary for a complete presentation of financial position, results of operations and cash flows in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”). Please refer to the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and the related notes for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022, contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 22, 2023 (the “2022 Annual Report”).

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make a number of estimates and assumptions relating to the reporting of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. On an ongoing basis, the Company evaluates its estimates, including those related to intangible assets purchased in a business combination, asset impairments, accruals for self-insurance, compensation and related benefits, accounts receivable, contingencies and litigation, contingent consideration liabilities associated with acquisitions, and income taxes. Actual results could differ from those estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In October 2021, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2021-08, “Business Combinations (Topic 805): Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers.” The new guidance requires companies to apply the definition of a performance obligation under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, to recognize and measure contract assets and contract liabilities, such as deferred revenue, relating to contracts with customers that are acquired in a business combination. Under prior guidance, an acquirer generally recognized assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination, including contract assets and contract liabilities arising from revenue contracts with customers, at their acquisition-date fair values in accordance with ASC Subtopic 820-10, Fair Value Measurements—Overall. Generally, this new guidance will result in the acquirer recognizing acquired contract assets and liabilities on the same basis that would have been recorded by the acquiree prior to the acquisition under ASC Topic 606. The Company adopted this standard effective January 1, 2023 on a prospective basis, and the adoption did not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Cash, Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents include currency on hand, deposits with financial institutions, money market funds, commercial paper and other highly liquid investments. Restricted cash and cash equivalents primarily includes cash, corporate bonds and commercial paper that serve as collateral for the Company’s captive insurance subsidiary claim payments. See Note (7), “Fair Value Measurement” for additional information.

The following table provides a reconciliation of cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash reported within the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets and related notes to the amounts presented in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of cash flows.

Table of Contents


	March 31, 2023		December 31, 2022
Cash and cash equivalents	$	28,516	$	64,524
Restricted cash and cash equivalents (included in other current assets)	31,500		37,225
Restricted cash, cash equivalents and investments	67,594		61,218
Total cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash and investments	127,610		162,967
Less restricted investments	(23,192)		(25,095)
Total cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash	$	104,418	$	137,872

The Company maintains its cash and restricted cash in bank deposit accounts primarily at large, national financial institutions, which typically exceed federally insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts.

Accounts Receivable

The Company records accounts receivable at the invoiced amount. Accounts receivable are non-interest bearing. The Company maintains an allowance for expected credit losses based on the Company’s historical write-off experience, an assessment of its customers’ financial conditions and available information that is relevant to assessing the collectability of cash flows, which includes current conditions and forecasts about future economic conditions.

The following table provides a reconciliation of activity in the allowance for credit losses for accounts receivable:


	2023		2022
Balance as of January 1,	$	31,910	$	6,838

Provision for expected credit losses	6,938		1,166
Amounts written off charged against the allowance	(1,112)		(534)

Balance as of March 31,	$	37,736	$	7,470

The increase in the provision for expected credit losses for the three months ended March 31, 2023 was primarily the result of concern with a specific customer’s ability to meet its financial obligations, and uncertainty regarding the collectability of cash flows from customers due primarily to the current macroeconomic outlook.

Reclassifications

To conform to the current year presentation, certain reclassifications have been made to prior year balances in the condensed consolidated balance sheets and accompanying Note (10), “Balance Sheet Details.”

2. ACQUISITIONS

The Company accounted for the acquisition set forth below using the acquisition method of accounting. Accordingly, the Company recorded the tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed at their estimated fair values as of the date of acquisition. Since the date of acquisition, the Company has revised the allocation of the purchase price to the tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on analysis of information that has been made available through March 31, 2023. The allocation will continue to be updated through the measurement period, if necessary. The goodwill recognized for the acquisition is attributable to expected growth as the Company leverages its brand and diversifies its services offered to clients, including potential revenue growth and margin expansion. The Company did not incur any material acquisition-related costs.

Connetics Acquisition

On May 13, 2022, the Company completed its acquisition of Connetics Communications, LLC (“Connetics”), which specializes in the direct hire recruitment and permanent placement of international nurse and allied health professionals with healthcare facilities in the United States. The initial purchase price of $78,764 included (1) $70,764 cash consideration paid upon acquisition, funded through cash on hand, and (2) contingent consideration (earn-out payment) of up to $12,500 with an estimated fair value of $8,000 as of the acquisition date. The contingent earn-out payment is based on the operating results of Connetics for the twelve months ending May 31, 2023. The results of Connetics have been included in the Company’s nurse and allied solutions segment since the date of acquisition. During the fourth quarter of 2022, $231 was returned to the Company in respect of the final working capital settlement.

The preliminary allocation of the $78,533 purchase price, which was reduced by the final working capital settlement during the fourth quarter of 2022, consisted of (1) $3,632 of fair value of tangible assets acquired, which included $963 cash received, (2) $8,244 of liabilities assumed, (3) $40,200 of identified intangible assets, and (4) $42,945 of goodwill, of which $34,944 is deductible for tax purposes. The intangible assets acquired have a weighted average useful life of approximately thirteen years. The following table summarizes the fair value and useful life of each intangible asset acquired as of the acquisition date:


		Fair Value		Useful Life
				(in years)
Identifiable intangible assets
	Customer relationships	$	32,800	15
	Staffing database	4,200		5
	Tradenames and trademarks	3,200		5
		$	40,200

Table of Contents

3. REVENUE RECOGNITION

Revenue primarily consists of fees earned from the temporary staffing and permanent placement of healthcare professionals, executives, and leaders (clinical and operational). The Company also generates revenue from technology-enabled services, including language interpretation and vendor management systems, and talent planning and acquisition services, including recruitment process outsourcing. The Company recognizes revenue when control of its services is transferred to its customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to receive in exchange for those services. Revenue from temporary staffing services is recognized as the services are rendered by clinical and non-clinical healthcare professionals. Under the Company’s managed services program (“MSP”) arrangements, the Company manages all or a part of a customer’s supplemental workforce needs utilizing its own network of healthcare professionals along with those of third-party subcontractors. Revenue and the related direct costs under MSP arrangements are recorded in accordance with the accounting guidance on reporting revenue gross as a principal versus net as an agent. When the Company uses subcontractors and acts as an agent, revenue is recorded net of the related subcontractor’s expense. Revenue from permanent placement and recruitment process outsourcing services is recognized as the services are rendered. Depending on the arrangement, the Company’s technology-enabled service revenue is recognized either as the services are rendered or ratably over the applicable arrangement’s service period.

The Company’s customers are primarily billed as services are rendered. Any fees billed in advance of being earned are recorded as deferred revenue. While payment terms vary by the type of customer and the services rendered, the term between invoicing and when payment is due is not significant.

The Company has elected to apply the following practical expedients and optional exemptions related to contract costs and revenue recognition:

•Recognize incremental costs of obtaining a contract with amortization periods of one year or less as expense when incurred. These costs are recorded within selling, general and administrative expenses.

•Recognize revenue in the amount of consideration that the Company has a right to invoice the customer if that amount corresponds directly with the value to the customer of the Company’s services completed to date.

•Exemptions from disclosing the value of unsatisfied performance obligations for (i) contracts with an original expected length of one year or less, (ii) contracts for which revenue is recognized in the amount of consideration that the Company has a right to invoice for services performed and (iii) contracts for which variable consideration is allocated entirely to a wholly unsatisfied performance obligation or to a wholly unsatisfied promise to transfer a distinct service that forms part of a single performance obligation.

See Note (5), “Segment Information,” for additional information regarding the Company’s revenue disaggregated by service type.

4. NET INCOME PER COMMON SHARE

Basic net income per common share is calculated by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the reporting period. The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted net income per common share:


	Three Months Ended March 31,
		2023		2022
Net income		$	84,110	$	146,008

Net income per common share - basic		$	2.03	$	3.11
Net income per common share - diluted		$	2.02	$	3.09

Weighted average common shares outstanding - basic		41,378		46,913
Plus dilutive effect of potential common shares		192		295
Weighted average common shares outstanding - diluted		41,570		47,208

Share-based awards to purchase 243 and 160 shares of common stock were not included in the above calculation of diluted net income per common share for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively, because the effect of these instruments was anti-dilutive.

Since March 31, 2023, and through May 5, 2023, the Company repurchased 594 shares of its common stock at an average price of $84.18 per share excluding broker’s fee, resulting in an aggregate purchase price of $50,000 excluding the effect of 1% of excise taxes on the repurchased amount.

5. SEGMENT INFORMATION

The Company’s operating segments are identified in the same manner as they are reported internally and used by the Company’s chief operating decision maker for the purpose of evaluating performance and allocating resources. The Company has three reportable segments: (1) nurse and allied solutions, (2) physician and leadership solutions, and (3) technology and workforce solutions. The nurse and allied solutions segment includes the Company’s travel nurse staffing (including international nurse staffing and rapid response nurse staffing), labor disruption staffing, local staffing, international nurse and allied permanent placement, allied staffing and revenue cycle solutions businesses. The physician and leadership solutions segment includes the Company’s locum tenens staffing, healthcare interim leadership staffing, executive search, and physician permanent placement businesses. The technology and workforce solutions segment includes the Company’s language services, vendor management systems, workforce optimization, virtual care, and outsourced solutions businesses.

The Company’s chief operating decision maker relies on internal management reporting processes that provide revenue and operating income by reportable segment for making financial decisions and allocating resources. Segment operating income represents income before income taxes plus depreciation, amortization of intangible assets, share-based compensation, interest expense, net, and other, and unallocated corporate overhead. The Company’s management does not evaluate, manage or measure performance of segments using asset information; accordingly, asset information by segment is not prepared or disclosed.

The following table provides a reconciliation of revenue and operating income by reportable segment to consolidated results and was derived from each segment’s internal financial information as used for corporate management purposes:

6. NOTES PAYABLE AND CREDIT AGREEMENT

On February 10, 2023, the Company entered into the third amendment to its credit agreement (the “Third Amendment”). The Third Amendment provides for, among other things, the following: (i) an extension of the maturity date of the secured revolving credit facility (the “Senior Credit Facility”) to February 10, 2028, (ii) an increase of the revolving commitments to $750,000, and (iii) a transition from LIBOR to a SOFR-based interest rate. The obligations of the Company under the amended credit agreement are secured by substantially all of the assets of the Company. Additional information regarding the credit agreement, Senior Credit Facility and Third Amendment is disclosed in Part II, Item 8, “Financial Statements and Supplementary Data—Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—Note (8), Notes Payable and Credit Agreement” of the 2022 Annual Report.

7. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT

The Company’s valuation techniques and inputs used to measure fair value and the definition of the three levels (Level 1, Level 2, and Level 3) of the fair value hierarchy are disclosed in Part II, Item 8, “Financial Statements and Supplementary Data—Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—Note (3), Fair Value Measurement” of the 2022 Annual Report. The Company has not changed the valuation techniques or inputs it uses for its fair value measurement during the three months ended March 31, 2023.

Assets and Liabilities Measured on a Recurring Basis

The Company invests a portion of its cash and cash equivalents in non-federally insured money market funds that are measured at fair value based on quoted prices, which are Level 1 inputs.

The Company has a deferred compensation plan for certain executives and employees, which is composed of deferred compensation and all related income and losses attributable thereto. The Company’s obligation under its deferred compensation plan is measured at fair value based on quoted market prices of the participants’ elected investments, which are Level 1 inputs.

The Company’s restricted cash equivalents and investments that serve as collateral for the Company’s captive insurance company include commercial paper that is measured at observable market prices for identical securities that are traded in less active markets, which are Level 2 inputs. The Company’s cash equivalents also include commercial paper classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy. Of the $37,600 commercial paper issued and outstanding as of March 31, 2023, none had original maturities greater than three months. Of the $31,536 commercial paper issued and outstanding as of December 31, 2022, none had original maturities greater than three months.

The Company’s restricted cash equivalents and investments that serve as collateral for the Company’s captive insurance company also include corporate bonds that are measured using readily available pricing sources that utilize observable market data, including the current interest rate for comparable instruments, which are Level 2 inputs. As of March 31, 2023, the Company had $23,192 corporate bonds issued and outstanding, all of which had original maturities greater than three months and were considered available-for-sale securities. As of December 31, 2022, the Company had $25,095 corporate bonds issued and outstanding, all of which had original maturities greater than three months and were considered available-for-sale securities.

The Company’s contingent consideration liabilities associated with acquisitions are measured at fair value using a probability-weighted discounted cash flow analysis or a simulation-based methodology for the acquired companies, which are Level 3 inputs. The Company recognizes changes to the fair value of its contingent consideration liabilities in selling, general and administrative expenses in the condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income.

The following tables present information about the above-referenced assets and liabilities and indicate the fair value hierarchy of the valuation techniques utilized to determine such fair value:

Table of Contents


	Fair Value Measurements as of March 31, 2023								Fair Value Measurements as of December 31, 2022
Assets (Liabilities)	Level 1		Level 2		Level 3		Total		Level 1		Level 2		Level 3		Total
Money market funds	$	641	$	—	$	—	$	641	$	36,895	$	—	$	—	$	36,895
Deferred compensation	(144,349)		—		—		(144,349)		(128,465)		—		—		(128,465)

Acquisition contingent consideration liabilities	—		—		(5,150)		(5,150)		—		—		(5,070)		(5,070)

Assets Measured on a Non-Recurring Basis

The Company applies fair value techniques on a non-recurring basis associated with valuing potential impairment losses related to its goodwill, long-lived assets, and equity investments.

The Company evaluates goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets annually for impairment and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that it is more likely than not that an impairment exists. The Company determines the fair value of its reporting units based on a combination of inputs, including the market capitalization of the Company, as well as Level 3 inputs such as discounted cash flows, which are not observable from the market, directly or indirectly. The Company determines the fair value of its indefinite-lived intangible assets using the income approach (relief-from-royalty method) based on Level 3 inputs.

The Company’s equity investment represents an investment in a non-controlled corporation without a readily determinable market value. The Company has elected to measure the investment at cost minus impairment, if any, plus or minus changes resulting from observable price changes. The fair value is determined by using quoted prices for identical or similar investments of the same issuer, which are Level 2 inputs, and other information available to the Company such as the rights and obligations of the securities. The Company recognizes changes to the fair value of its equity investment in interest expense, net, and other in the condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income. The balance of the equity investment was $19,204 as of both March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022.

There were no material impairment charges recorded during the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company is required to disclose the fair value of financial instruments for which it is practicable to estimate the value, even though these instruments are not recognized at fair value in the consolidated balance sheets. The fair value of the Company’s 4.625% senior notes due 2027 (the “2027 Notes”) and 4.000% senior notes due 2029 (the “2029 Notes”) was estimated using quoted market prices in active markets for identical liabilities, which are Level 1 inputs. The carrying amounts and estimated fair value of the 2027 Notes and the 2029 Notes are presented in the following table. See additional information regarding the 2027 Notes and the 2029 Notes in Part II, Item 8, “Financial Statements and Supplementary Data—Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—Note (8), Notes Payable and Credit Agreement” of the 2022 Annual Report.


	As of March 31, 2023				As of December 31, 2022
	Carrying Amount		Estimated Fair Value		Carrying Amount		Estimated Fair Value
2027 Notes	$	500,000	$	463,125	$	500,000	$	460,000
2029 Notes	350,000		308,875		350,000		300,125

The fair value of the Company’s long-term self-insurance accruals cannot be estimated as the Company cannot reasonably determine the timing of future payments.

8. INCOME TAXES

The Company is subject to taxation in the U.S. and various states and foreign jurisdictions. With few exceptions, as of March 31, 2023, the Company is no longer subject to state, local or foreign examinations by tax authorities for tax years before 2011, and the Company is no longer subject to U.S. federal income or payroll tax examinations for tax years before 2019.

Table of Contents

The Company believes its liability for unrecognized tax benefits and contingent tax issues is adequate with respect to all open years. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company could adjust its provision for income taxes and contingent tax liability based on future developments.

9. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Legal Proceedings

From time to time, the Company is involved in various lawsuits, claims, investigations, and proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of business. These matters typically relate to professional liability, tax, compensation, contract, competitor disputes and employee-related matters and include individual and class action lawsuits, as well as inquiries and investigations by governmental agencies regarding the Company’s employment and compensation practices. Additionally, some of the Company’s clients may also become subject to claims, governmental inquiries and investigations, and legal actions relating to services provided by the Company’s healthcare professionals. Depending upon the particular facts and circumstances, the Company may also be subject to indemnification obligations under its contracts with such clients relating to these matters. The Company accrues for contingencies and records a liability when management believes an adverse outcome from a loss contingency is both probable and the amount, or a range, can be reasonably estimated. Significant judgment is required to determine both probability of loss and the estimated amount. The Company reviews its loss contingencies at least quarterly and adjusts its accruals and/or disclosures to reflect the impact of negotiations, settlements, rulings, advice of legal counsel, or other new information, as deemed necessary. The most significant matters for which the Company has established loss contingencies are class actions related to wage and hour claims under California and Federal law. Specifically, among other claims in these lawsuits, it is alleged that certain expense reimbursements should be considered wages and included in the regular rate of pay for purposes of calculating overtime rates.

On May 26, 2016, former travel nurse Verna Maxwell Clarke filed a complaint against AMN Services, LLC, in California Superior Court in Los Angeles County. The Company removed the case to the United States District Court for the Central District of California (Case No. 2:16-cv-04132-DSF-KS) (the “Clarke Matter”). The complaint asserts that, due to the Company’s per diem adjustment practices, traveling nurses’ per diem benefits should be included in their regular rate of pay for the purposes of calculating their overtime compensation. On June 26, 2018, the district court denied the plaintiffs’ Motion for Summary Judgment in its entirety, and granted the Company’s Motion for Summary Judgment with respect to the plaintiffs’ per diem and overtime claims. The plaintiffs filed an appeal of the judgment relating to the per diem claims with the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals (the “Ninth Circuit”). On February 8, 2021, the Ninth Circuit issued an opinion that reversed the district court’s granting of the Company’s Motion for Summary Judgment and remanded the matter to the district court instructing the district to enter partial summary judgment in favor of the plaintiffs. On August 26, 2021, the Company filed a Petition for Writ of Certiorari in the United States Supreme Court seeking review of the Ninth Circuit’s decision, which was denied on December 13, 2021. This case is proceeding in the United States District Court.

On May 2, 2019, former travel nurse Sara Woehrle filed a complaint against AMN Services, LLC, and Providence Health System – Southern California in California Superior Court in Los Angeles County. The Company removed the case to the United States District Court for the Central District of California (Case No. 2:19-cv-05282 DSF-KS). The complaint asserts that, due to the Company’s per diem adjustment practices, traveling nurses’ per diem benefits should be included in their regular rate of pay for the purposes of calculating their overtime compensation. The complaint also alleges that the putative class members were denied required meal periods, denied proper overtime compensation, were not compensated for all time worked, including reporting time and training time, and received non-compliant wage statements. The Company reached an agreement to settle this matter in its entirety and received court approval of the settlement. Payment is expected to be made in the second quarter of 2023.

Because of the inherent uncertainty of litigation, the Company is not able to reasonably predict if any matter will be resolved in a manner that is materially adverse to the Company. The Company has recorded accruals in connection with the two matters described above amounting to $46,225. The Company is currently unable to estimate the possible loss or range of loss beyond amounts already accrued. Loss contingencies accrued as of both March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022 are included in accounts payable and accrued expenses and other long-term liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets.

Operating Leases

In the first quarter of 2022, the Company entered into a lease agreement for an office building located in Dallas, Texas, with future undiscounted lease payments of approximately $29,514, excluding lease incentives. Because the Company does not control the underlying asset during the construction period, the Company is not considered the owner of the asset under construction for accounting purposes. The lease will commence upon completion of the construction of the office building which is expected be in the second quarter of 2023. The initial term of the lease is approximately eleven years with options to renew the lease during the lease term. A right-of-use asset and lease liability will be recognized in the consolidated balance sheet in the period the lease commences.

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

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto and other financial information included elsewhere herein and in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on February 22, 2023 (“2022 Annual Report”). Certain statements in this “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” are “forward-looking statements.” See “Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements.” We undertake no obligation to update the forward-looking statements in this Quarterly Report. References in this Quarterly Report to “AMN Healthcare,” the “Company,” “we,” “us” and “our” refer to AMN Healthcare Services, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries.

Overview of Our Business

We provide healthcare workforce solutions and staffing services to healthcare organizations across the nation. As an innovative total talent solutions partner, our managed services programs, or “MSP,” vendor management systems, or “VMS,” workforce consulting services, predictive modeling, staff scheduling, revenue cycle solutions, language services, and the placement of physicians, nurses, allied healthcare professionals and healthcare leaders into temporary and permanent positions enable our clients to successfully reduce staffing complexity, increase efficiency and lead their organizations within the rapidly evolving healthcare environment.

We conduct business through three reportable segments: (1) nurse and allied solutions, (2) physician and leadership solutions, and (3) technology and workforce solutions. For the three months ended March 31, 2023, we recorded revenue of $1,126.2 million, as compared to $1,552.5 million for the same period last year.

Nurse and allied solutions segment revenue comprised 73% and 79% of total consolidated revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Through our nurse and allied solutions segment, we provide hospitals and other healthcare facilities with a comprehensive managed services solution in which we manage and staff all of the temporary and permanent nursing and allied staffing needs of a client. We also provide revenue cycle solutions, which include skilled labor solutions for remote medical coding, clinical documentation improvement, case management, and clinical data registry, and provide auditing and advisory services. A majority of our placements in this segment are under our managed services solution, however, we also provide traditional direct nurse and allied healthcare staffing solutions of variable assignment lengths.

Physician and leadership solutions segment revenue comprised 15% and 12% of total consolidated revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Through our physician and leadership solutions segment, we place physicians of all specialties, as well as dentists and advanced practice providers, with clients on a temporary basis, generally as independent contractors. We also recruit physicians and healthcare leaders for permanent placement and place interim leaders and executives across all healthcare settings. The interim healthcare leaders and executives we place are typically placed on contracts with assignment lengths ranging from a few days to one year, and a growing number of these placements are under our managed services solution.

Technology and workforce solutions segment revenue comprised 12% and 9% of total consolidated revenue for both of the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Through our technology and workforce solutions segment, we provide hospitals and other healthcare facilities with a range of workforce solutions, including: (1) language services, (2) software-as-a-service (“SaaS”) VMS technologies through which our clients can manage their temporary staffing needs, (3) workforce optimization services that include consulting, data analytics, predictive modeling, and SaaS-based scheduling technology, (4) recruitment process outsourcing services that leverage our expertise and support systems to replace or complement a client’s existing internal recruitment function for permanent placement needs, and (5) virtual care services.

Operating Metrics

In addition to our consolidated and segment financial results, we monitor the following key metrics to help us evaluate our results of operations and financial condition and make strategic decisions. We believe this information is useful in understanding our operational performance and trends affecting our businesses.

•Average travelers on assignment represents the average number of nurse and allied healthcare professionals on assignment during the period, which is used by management as a measure of volume in our nurse and allied solutions segment;

•Bill rates represent the hourly straight-time rates that we bill to clients, which are an indicator of labor market trends and costs within our nurse and allied solutions segment;

•Billable hours represent hours worked by our healthcare professionals that we are able to bill on client engagements, which are used by management as a measure of volume in our nurse and allied solutions segment;

Table of Contents

•Days filled is calculated by dividing total locum tenens hours filled during the period by eight hours, which is used by management as a measure of volume in our locum tenens business within our physician and leadership solutions segment; and

•Revenue per day filled is calculated by dividing revenue of our locum tenens business by days filled for the period, which is an indicator of labor market trends and costs in our locum tenens business within our physician and leadership solutions segment.

Recent Trends

Demand for our temporary and permanent placement staffing services is driven in part by U.S. economic and labor trends, and from early 2020 through 2022, the COVID-19 pandemic and the “Great Resignation” impacted demand. From late 2020 through most of 2022, these conditions resulted in historically high demand for our nurses and allied healthcare professionals. In 2023, with the pandemic-related needs subsiding, demand in our travel nurse business has declined significantly from historic highs and is currently slightly below pre-pandemic levels. Demand in our allied business continues to be above pre-pandemic levels and certain specialties such as allied therapy are up significantly year over year. Our clients are still dealing with significant labor shortages as their progress on permanent hiring and retention has not addressed the vacancies. At the same time, despite the relatively high level of hospital job openings, our clients have focused on reducing what had been historically high utilization of contingent labor.

Wages for nurses and the corresponding bill rates we charge our clients peaked in the first quarter of 2022. Bill rates in our nurse and allied solutions segment decreased year-over-year in the first quarter of 2023. We expect bill rates and clinician compensation to stabilize above pre-pandemic levels in 2023.

In our physician and leadership solutions segment, demand for our locum tenens business is well above pre-pandemic levels. Demand for certified registered nurse anesthetists (CRNAs), which represents the largest percentage of revenue in this business, continues to be strong. We expect continued strong demand for locums tenens staffing in the second quarter of 2023. Demand remained softer for our interim leadership and search businesses in the first quarter of 2023 as some healthcare organizations streamlined or deferred leadership roles to reduce costs.

In our technology and workforce solutions segment, our language services business continued to experience increased utilization reflecting a continued shift to more virtual interpretation that began during the pandemic. As anticipated, bill rates and volumes in our VMS business followed similar trends as our nurse and allied solutions segment, declining from historic highs but remaining above pre-pandemic levels. We anticipate our VMS business to continue to trend along the same lines as our nurse and allied solutions segment with bill rates stabilizing in 2023 above pre-pandemic levels.

Our clients have accelerated initiatives designed to contain costs of their spend on contingent labor, and we are experiencing a number of clients that are reevaluating their approach and seeking sustainable workforce solutions.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The preparation of our consolidated financial statements in conformity with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect our reported amounts of assets and liabilities, revenue and expenses, and related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates, including those related to intangible assets purchased in a business combination, asset impairments, accruals for self-insurance, compensation and related benefits, accounts receivable, contingencies and litigation, contingent consideration (“earn-out”) liabilities associated with acquisitions, and income taxes. We base these estimates on the information that is currently available to us and on various other assumptions that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could vary from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. If these estimates differ significantly from actual results, our consolidated financial statements and future results of operations may be materially impacted. There have been no material changes in our critical accounting policies and estimates, other than the adoption of the Accounting Standard Update (“ASU”) described in the accompanying Note (1), “Basis of Presentation,” as compared to the critical accounting policies and estimates described in our 2022 Annual Report.

Revenue. Revenue decreased 27% to $1,126.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 from $1,552.5 million for the same period in 2022, attributable to a decline in revenue across our segments with the greatest decline in our nurse and allied solutions segment.

Nurse and allied solutions segment revenue decreased 33% to $824.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 from $1,228.0 million for the same period in 2022. The $403.5 million decrease was primarily attributable to an approximately 22% decrease in the average bill rate, an 11% decrease in the average number of travelers on assignment, and a 3% decrease in billable hours during the three months ended March 31, 2023. The overall decrease was partially offset by an approximately $6.0 million increase in labor disruption revenue and additional revenue of $4.7 million in connection with the Connetics acquisition.

Physician and leadership solutions segment revenue decreased 8% to $165.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 from $179.5 million for the same period in 2022. The $13.7 million decrease was attributable to declines in revenue of our businesses across the segment driven, in part, by COVID-19 project work in the prior year. Revenue in our locum tenens business declined approximately 5% during the three months ended March 31, 2023 primarily due to a 9% decrease in the number of days filled, partially offset by a 4% increase in the revenue per day filled. Our interim leadership business experienced a 9% decline and our physician permanent placement and executive search businesses declined 16% during the three months ended March 31, 2023, primarily due to lower demand.

Technology and workforce solutions segment revenue decreased 6% to $136.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 from $145.0 million for the same period in 2022. The $9.0 million decrease was primarily attributable to a decline within our VMS business, partially offset by growth within our language services business. Revenue for our VMS business declined 28% for the same reasons as nurse and allied solutions segment revenue, while our language services business grew 25% during the three months ended March 31, 2023.

For the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, revenue under our MSP arrangements comprised approximately 57% and 66% of our consolidated revenue, 74% and 81% of our nurse and allied solutions segment revenue, 21% and 14% of our physician and leadership solutions segment revenue, and 2% and 2% of our technology and workforce solutions segment revenue, respectively.

Gross Profit. Gross profit decreased 26% to $368.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 from $496.2 million for the same period in 2022, representing gross margins of 32.8% and 32.0%, respectively. The increase in consolidated gross margin for the three months ended March 31, 2023, as compared to the same period in 2022, was primarily due to a change in sales mix resulting from lower revenue in our nurse and allied solutions segment. The overall increase was partially offset by (1) a lower margin in our technology and workforce solutions segment primarily due to a change in sales mix resulting from lower revenue in our VMS business and its higher margins as compared to our other businesses within the segment and (2) a lower margin in our nurse and allied solutions segment driven by a decrease in billable hours. Gross margin by reportable segment for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022 was 25.9% and 26.2% for nurse and allied solutions, 35.2% and 35.0% for physician and leadership solutions, and 71.4% and 76.7% for technology and workforce solutions, respectively.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses were $205.6 million, representing 18.3% of revenue, for the three months ended March 31, 2023, as compared to $257.6 million, representing 16.6% of revenue, for the same period in 2022. The decrease in SG&A expenses was primarily due to $56.9 million of lower employee compensation and benefits (inclusive of share-based compensation), partially offset by a $5.8 million increase in the provision for expected credit losses. SG&A expenses broken down among the reportable segments, unallocated corporate overhead, and share-based compensation are as follows:


	(In Thousands)
	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2023		2022
Nurse and allied solutions	$	99,997	$	126,996
Physician and leadership solutions	33,208		42,489
Technology and workforce solutions	31,343		33,187
Unallocated corporate overhead	30,733		43,648
Share-based compensation	10,318		11,259
	$	205,599	$	257,579

Depreciation and Amortization Expenses. Amortization expense increased 10% to $21.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 from $19.6 million for the same period in 2022, primarily attributable to additional amortization expense related to the intangible assets acquired in the Connetics acquisition. Depreciation expense (exclusive of depreciation included in cost of revenue) increased 45% to $15.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 from $11.0 million for the same period in 2022, primarily attributable to an increase in purchased and developed hardware and software placed in service for our ongoing information technology investments to support our total talent solutions initiatives and to optimize our internal front and back-office systems. Additionally, $1.3 million and $0.9 million of depreciation expense for our language services business is included in cost of revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

Interest Expense, Net, and Other. Interest expense, net, and other was $10.3 million during the three months ended March 31, 2023 as compared to $9.6 million for the same period in 2022. The increase was primarily due to a higher average debt outstanding balance during the three months ended March 31, 2023.

Income Tax Expense. Income tax expense was $31.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 as compared to $52.3 million for the same period in 2022, reflecting effective income tax rates of 27% and 26% for these periods, respectively. The increase in the effective income tax rate was primarily attributable to the recognition of $0.8 million of net discrete tax expense during the three months ended March 31, 2023 compared to a $1.0 million net discrete tax benefits during the same period in 2022, in relation to income before income taxes of $115.4 million and $198.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. We currently estimate our annual effective tax rate to be approximately 28% for 2023. The 27% effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2023 differs from our estimated annual effective tax rate of 28% primarily due to certain discrete tax benefits recognized during the three months ended March 31, 2023, in relation to income before income taxes.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

In summary, our cash flows were:


	(In Thousands)
	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2023		2022

Net cash provided by operating activities	$	43,434	$	200,215
Net cash used in investing activities	(32,431)		(23,239)
Net cash used in financing activities	(44,457)		(237,455)

Historically, our primary liquidity requirements have been for acquisitions, working capital requirements, and debt service under our credit facilities and senior notes. We have funded these requirements through internally generated cash flow and funds borrowed under our credit facilities.

As of March 31, 2023, (1) $140.0 million was drawn with $589.2 million of available credit under our $750.0 million secured revolving credit facility (the “Senior Credit Facility”), (2) the aggregate principal amount of our 4.625% senior notes due 2027 (the “2027 Notes”) outstanding was $500.0 million, and (3) the aggregate principal amount of our 4.000% senior notes due 2029 (the “2029 Notes”) outstanding was $350.0 million. We describe in further detail our Amended Credit Agreement (as defined below), under which the Senior Credit Facility is governed, the 2027 Notes, and the 2029 Notes in Part II, Item 8, “Financial Statements and Supplementary Data—Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—Note (8), Notes Payable and Credit Agreement” of our 2022 Annual Report.

As of March 31, 2023, the total of our contractual obligations under operating leases with initial terms in excess of one year was $16.0 million. We describe in further detail our operating lease arrangements in Part II, Item 8, “Financial Statements and Supplementary Data—Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—Note (5), Leases” of our 2022 Annual Report. We also have various obligations and working capital requirements, such as certain tax and legal matters, contingent consideration and other liabilities, that are recorded on our consolidated balance sheets. See additional information in the accompanying Note (7), “Fair Value Measurement,” Note (8), “Income Taxes,” Note (9), “Commitments and Contingencies,” and Note (10), “Balance Sheet Details.”

In addition to our cash requirements, we have a share repurchase program authorized by our board of directors, which does not require the purchase of any minimum number of shares and may be suspended or discontinued at any time. See additional information in the accompanying Part II, Item 2, “Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds.” Under the repurchase program, we intend to enter into an accelerated share repurchase (“ASR”) agreement with a counterparty to repurchase approximately $200.0 million of our outstanding common stock.

We believe that cash generated from operations and available borrowings under the Senior Credit Facility will be sufficient to fund our operations and liquidity requirements, including expected capital expenditures, for the next 12 months and beyond. We intend to finance potential future acquisitions with cash provided from operations, borrowings under the Senior Credit Facility or other borrowings under our amended credit agreement, bank loans, debt or equity offerings, or some combination of the foregoing. The following discussion provides further details of our liquidity and capital resources.

Operating Activities

Net cash provided by operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2023 was $43.4 million, compared to $200.2 million for the same period in 2022. The decrease in net cash provided by operating activities was primarily attributable to (1) a decrease in net income excluding non-cash expenses of $59.5 million primarily due to a decline in operating results in our nurse and allied solutions segment, (2) a decrease in accrued compensation and benefits between periods of $167.5 million primarily due to prior year increases in pay rates and the average number of travelers on assignment in our nurse and allied solutions segment and increased employee compensation and benefits in 2022, including accrued bonuses and commissions that were paid during the first quarter of 2023, (3) a decrease in accounts payable and accrued expenses between periods of $80.5 million primarily due to increased associate vendor usage in 2022, and (4) increases in prepaid expenses and other current assets between periods of $41.4 million and $12.3 million, respectively, primarily due to prepayments and deposits that were made in 2021 and refunded by third-party vendors in 2022 related to labor disruption services. The overall decrease in net cash provided by operating activities was partially offset by a decrease in accounts receivable and subcontractor receivables between periods of $199.3 million primarily due to a smaller increase in the receivables balance in the current year as compared to the prior year, which was due to increases in revenue and associate vendor usage in the prior year along with timing of collections during the three months ended March 31, 2023. Our Days Sales Outstanding (“DSO”) was 55 days at March 31, 2023, 55 days at December 31, 2022, and 57 days at March 31, 2022.

Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2023 was $32.4 million, compared to net cash used in investing activities of $23.2 million for the same period in 2022. The increase was primarily due to $17.0 million of payments to fund the deferred compensation plan during the three months ended March 31, 2023 as compared to $12.6 million of payments during the three months ended March 31, 2022. In addition, capital expenditures were $17.5 million and $13.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

Financing Activities

Net cash used in financing activities during the three months ended March 31, 2023 was $44.5 million, primarily due to (1) $174.7 million paid in connection with the repurchase of our common stock, (2) repayments of $70.0 million under the Senior Credit Facility, (3) $6.1 million in cash paid for shares withheld for payroll taxes resulting from the vesting of employee equity awards, and (4) $3.6 million payment of financing costs in connection with the Third Amendment (as defined below), all of which was partially offset by borrowings of $210.0 million under the Senior Credit Facility. Net cash used in financing activities during the three months ended March 31, 2022 was $237.5 million due to $228.0 million paid in connection with the repurchase of our common stock and $9.4 million in cash paid for shares withheld for payroll taxes resulting from the vesting of employee equity awards.

Amended Credit Agreement

On February 10, 2023, we entered into the third amendment to our credit agreement (the “Third Amendment”). The Third Amendment (together with the credit agreement as amended to date, collectively, the “Amended Credit Agreement”) provides for, among other things, an increase to the revolving commitments under the Senior Credit Facility to $750.0 million and an extension of the maturity date of the Amended Credit Agreement to February 10, 2028. Our obligations under the Amended Credit Agreement are secured by substantially all of our assets. We describe in further detail the terms of the Amended Credit Agreement, including maturity dates and interest terms, in Part II, Item 8, “Financial Statements and Supplementary Data—Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—Note (8), Notes Payable and Credit Agreement” of our 2022 Annual Report.

Letters of Credit

At March 31, 2023, we maintained outstanding standby letters of credit totaling $21.3 million as collateral in relation to our workers’ compensation insurance agreements and a corporate office lease agreement. Of the $21.3 million of outstanding letters of credit, we have collateralized $0.5 million in cash and cash equivalents and the remaining $20.8 million is collateralized by the Senior Credit Facility. Outstanding standby letters of credit at December 31, 2022 totaled $22.0 million.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

There have been no new accounting pronouncements issued but not yet adopted that are expected to materially affect our consolidated financial condition or results of operations.

Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

•the effect of significant adverse adjustments to our insurance-related accruals on our balance sheet, which could decrease our earnings or increase our losses and negatively impact our cash flows.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

Market risk is the risk of loss arising from adverse changes in market rates and prices, such as interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates, and commodity prices. During the three months ended March 31, 2023, our primary exposure to market risk was interest rate risk associated with our variable interest debt instruments and our investment portfolio. A 100 basis point increase in interest rates on our variable rate debt would not have resulted in a material effect on our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2023. A 100 basis point change in interest rates as of March 31, 2023 would not have resulted in a material effect on the fair value of our investment portfolio. For our investments that are classified as available-for-sale, unrealized gains or losses related to fluctuations in market volatility and interest rates are reflected within stockholders’ equity in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) in the consolidated balance sheets. Such unrealized losses would be realized only if we sell the investments prior to maturity.

During the three months ended March 31, 2023, we generated substantially all of our revenue in the United States. Accordingly, we believe that our foreign currency risk is immaterial.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

We carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2023 were effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended March 31, 2023 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

Information with respect to this item may be found in the accompanying Note (9), “Commitments and Contingencies,” which is incorporated herein by reference.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

We do not believe that there have been any material changes to the risk factors disclosed in Part I, Item 1A of our 2022 Annual Report. The risk factors described in our 2022 Annual Report are not the only risks we face. Factors we currently do not know, factors that we currently consider immaterial or factors that are not specific to us, such as general economic conditions, may also materially adversely affect our business or our consolidated operating results, financial condition or cash flows.

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

From time to time, we may repurchase our common stock in the open market pursuant to programs approved by our board of directors (the “Board”). On November 1, 2016, our Board authorized us to repurchase up to $150.0 million of our outstanding common stock in the open market. On November 10, 2021, February 17, 2022 and June 15, 2022, we announced increases to the repurchase program totaling $700.0 million. Additionally, on February 16, 2023, we announced an increase of $500.0 million for a total of $1,350.0 million of repurchase authorization as of March 31, 2023. Under the repurchase program announced on November 1, 2016 and the aforementioned increases (collectively, the “Company Repurchase Program”), share repurchases may be made from time to time, depending on prevailing market conditions and other considerations. The Company Repurchase Program has no expiration date and may be discontinued or suspended at any time.

During the three months ended March 31, 2023, we repurchased 1.8 million shares of common stock at an average price of $98.81 per share excluding broker’s fees, resulting in an aggregate purchase price of $174.7 million excluding the effect of excise taxes, funded through cash on hand and borrowings under our secured revolving credit facility. We describe in further detail our repurchase program and the shares repurchased thereunder in Part II, Item 5, “Market For Registrant’s Common Equity, Related Stockholder Matters and Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities” and Item 8, “Financial Statements and Supplementary Data—Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—Note (10)(b), Capital Stock—Treasury Stock” set forth in our 2022 Annual Report.

The following table presents repurchases of our common stock, which excludes the effect of excise taxes, during the three months ended March 31, 2023:
