Note 1     Summary of Business and Significant Accounting Policies

Business

WageWorks, Inc., (together with its subsidiaries, “WageWorks” or the “Company”) was incorporated in the state of Delaware in 2000. The Company is a leader in administering Consumer-Directed Benefits (“CDBs”), which empower employees to lower their healthcare related expenditures while also providing corporate tax advantages for employers.

The Company operates as a single reportable segment on an entity level basis, and considers itself to operate under one operating and reporting segment with healthcare, transit and other employer sponsored programs representing a group of similar products lines. The Company believes that it engages in a single business activity and operates in a single economic environment.

Basis of Presentation

The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements and the related notes have been prepared on the same basis as the audited consolidated financial statements and reflect all adjustments that, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The results of the interim period presented herein are not necessarily indicative of the results of future periods or annual results for the year ending December 31, 2019.

These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements and the related notes should be read in conjunction with the December 31, 2018 audited financial statements and related notes, together with management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations, included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K. The December 31, 2018 consolidated balance sheet, included in this interim Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, was derived from audited financial statements.

There have been no material changes to the Company’s critical accounting estimates during the three months ended March 31, 2019. Other than the adoption of ASU 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842)”, there have been no material changes to the Company's critical accounting policies during the three months ended March 31, 2019 from the items the Company disclosed in the its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.

Reclassifications
Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to current period presentation including the reclassification of deferred revenue from accounts payable and accrued expenses to other current liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheet and statement of cash flows for the three months ending March 31, 2018. There was no impact on the condensed consolidated statements of income.

Principles of Consolidation

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of WageWorks, Inc. and its subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Use of Estimates

In preparing the condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosure in conformity with GAAP, and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), the Company must make estimates and judgments that affect the amounts reported in the Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying notes. Estimates are used for, but not limited to revenue recognition, allowances for doubtful accounts, useful lives for depreciation and amortization, loss contingencies, income taxes, the assumptions used for stock-based compensation including attainment of performance-based awards, the assumptions used for software and web site development cost classification, and recoverability and impairments of goodwill and long-lived assets and average customer life. Actual results may be materially different from those estimates. In making its estimates, the Company considers the current economic and legislative environment.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)
(Unaudited)


Leases
The Company leases office space under noncancelable operating leases. Operating lease right-of-use assets and liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. As the implicit rate is not readily determinable in most of the Company’s lease agreements, the Company uses its estimated secured incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. Lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. In addition, the Company made an accounting policy election to keep leases with an initial term of 12 months or less off of the balance sheet.
The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease or contains a lease at inception. The Company applied the short-term lease measurement and recognition exemption in which right-of-use (“ROU”) assets and lease obligations are not recognized for short-term leases. The Company does not have lease agreements with residual value guarantees, sales leaseback terms or material restrictive covenants. The Company has one sublease for which the sublease income was recorded as a reduction to operating lease expense for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018.
The Company has lease agreements that contain both lease and non-lease components. For real estate leases, the Company accounts for lease components together with non-lease components (e.g., common-area maintenance). Amounts recognized as ROU assets related to finance leases are included in property and equipment, net in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets, while related lease liabilities are included in other current liabilities and other long-term liabilities.
Recently Adopted Accounting Guidance

In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), which requires lessees to apply a dual approach, classifying leases as either finance or operating leases based on the principle of whether or not the lease is effectively a financed purchase by the lessee. This classification will determine whether lease expense is recognized based on an effective interest method or on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. A lessee is also required to record a right-of-use asset and a lease liability for all leases with a term of greater than 12 months regardless of their classification. Leases with a term of 12 months or less will be accounted for similar to existing guidance for operating lease.

The Company adopted Topic 842 prospectively during the first quarter of 2019. As part of its adoption, the Company elected a package of practical expedients for leases that commenced prior to January 1, 2019 and did not reassess: (i) whether any expired or existing contracts are or contain leases; (ii) lease classification for any expired or existing leases; and (iii) initial direct costs capitalization for any existing leases. The Company recognizes those lease payments in the consolidated statements of income on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

The adoption of Topic 842 resulted in the Company recording $25.5 million of right-of-use lease assets and $38.4 million of lease liabilities as of January 1, 2019. The new standard did not have a significant impact on the condensed consolidated statements of income. See Note 10, Commitments and Contingencies for additional information.

In February 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-02, “Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income (Topic 220) - Reclassification of Certain Tax Effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income” (ASU 2018-02). This standard allows a reclassification from accumulated other comprehensive income to retained earnings for stranded tax effects resulting from the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act and requires certain disclosures about stranded tax effects. The Company adopted ASU 2018-02 in January 1, 2019 and applied it in the period of adoption. The Company did not elect to reclassify any tax effects of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act on items within accumulated other comprehensive income to retained earnings. The adoption of this standard did not have an effect on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-15, “Intangibles, Goodwill and Other (Subtopic 350-40): Customer’s Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement that is a Service Contract” (ASU 2018-15). ASU 2018-15 requires implementation costs incurred by customers in cloud computing arrangements to be deferred, if those same costs would be capitalized by a customer in a software licensing arrangement under the internal-use software guidance in ASC 350-40. ASU 2018-15 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted. The Company elected to early adopt the new standard as of March 31, 2019. The adoption of this standard did not have a material effect on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
 In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, “Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments” (ASU 2016-13), which amends the FASB’s guidance on the impairment of financial instruments. The ASU adds to GAAP an impairment model (known as the “current expected credit loss model”) that is based on expected losses rather than incurred losses. ASU 2016-13 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is currently evaluating the timing and impact of adoption on its condensed consolidated financial statements.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-04, “Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment”. The amendments eliminate Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test. The annual, or interim, goodwill impairment test is performed by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount. An impairment charge should be recognized for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value; however, the loss recognized should not exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. In addition, income tax effects from any tax deductible goodwill on the carrying amount of the reporting unit should be considered when measuring the goodwill impairment loss, if applicable. The amendments also eliminate the requirements for any reporting unit with a zero or negative carrying amount to perform a qualitative assessment and, if it fails that qualitative test, to perform Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test. An entity still has the option to perform the qualitative assessment for a reporting unit to determine if the quantitative impairment test is necessary. The new standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the timing and impact of adoption on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-13, “Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework-Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement” (ASU 2018-13). The primary focus of ASU 2018-13 is to improve the effectiveness of the disclosure requirements for fair value measurements. The changes affect all companies that are required to include fair value measurement disclosures. In general, the amendments in this standard are effective for all entities for fiscal years and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the timing and impact of adoption on its condensed consolidated financial statements.

In November 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-19, “Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses”. ASU 2018-19 clarifies that receivables arising from operating leases are not within the scope of the credit losses standard, but rather, should be accounted for in accordance with the leases standard. In general, the amendments in this standard are effective for public business entities that meet the definition of a SEC filer for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within those fiscal years.

For the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, potential shares from stock options and restricted stock units totaling 1.9 million and 1.4 million, respectively, are not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share because their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive.

Note 3     Revenue

The Company generally invoices its customers on a monthly basis with a term of net 30-60 days. The Company applies the practical expedient provided by ASC 606 and does not evaluate contracts of one year or less for the existence of a significant financing component. The Company’s policy is to exclude sales and other indirect taxes when measuring the transaction price of its subscription agreements.
Disaggregation of Revenue

The Company’s primary categories of revenue are Healthcare, Commuter, COBRA and Other revenue and are disclosed in the condensed consolidated statements of income. The following table provides information about disaggregated revenue from contracts with customers by the nature of the products and services (in thousands):

Contract Balances

The Company generally does not recognize revenue in advance of invoicing its customers, however, it records a receivable when revenue is recognized prior to payment and it has unconditional right to payment. Alternatively, when payment precedes the related services, the Company records a contract liability, or deferred revenue, until its performance obligations are satisfied. The Company’s deferred revenue as of March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018 was $17.1 million and $3.9 million, respectively.

(Unaudited)


The balances related to cash received in advance for a certain interchange revenue arrangement, other up-front fees and other commuter deferred revenue. The Company expects to satisfy its remaining obligations for these arrangements.

Contract Costs

Contract costs relate to incremental costs of obtaining a contract with a customer. Contract costs, which primarily consist of deferred sales commissions, were $8.7 million and $8.8 million as of March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively and are included in other assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Amortization expense for the deferred costs was $0.7 million and $0.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively. There was no impairment loss in relation to the costs capitalized for the periods presented. Deferred contract costs are amortized on a straight-line basis over the period of benefit, which is consistent with the pattern of transfer of the good or service to which the asset relates.

Performance Obligations

During the three months ended March 31, 2019, the Company recognized the following revenues (in thousands):

On April 4, 2017, the Company entered into a Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with MUFG Union Bank, N.A., as administrative agent (“Agent”). The Credit Agreement amends and restates the Company’s existing Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, and increased the Company’s borrowing capacity under the revolving credit facility to $400.0 million, with a $15.0 million letter of credit sub-facility. The Credit Agreement contains an increase option permitting the Company, subject to certain conditions and requirements, to arrange with existing lenders and/or new lenders to provide up to an aggregate of $100.0 million in additional commitments. Loan proceeds may be used for general corporate purposes, including acquisitions permitted under the Credit Agreement. The Company may prepay loans under the Credit Agreement in whole or in part at any time without premium or penalty. The fees incurred in connection with this Credit Agreement are classified as a direct deduction from long-term debt in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. The Second Amended Credit Agreement contains financial and non-financial covenants including debt ratio and interest coverage ratio requirements. The Company is currently in compliance with all the covenants under the credit facility.

Operating cash flows from operating leases were $2.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019.
During the second quarter of 2019, the Company entered into an approximately 10-year lease agreement to occupy 150,000 square feet of new office space in Mesa, AZ. The base rent obligation is expected to commence in the second quarter of 2020. In addition to the base rent payments, the Company will be obligated to pay certain customary amounts for its share of operating expenses and tax obligation. The Company has the option to extend the term of the lease for two additional five-year periods.

Legal Matters
The Company is pursuing affirmative claims against the Office of Personnel Management (OPM) to obtain payment for services provided by the Company between March 1, 2016 and August 31, 2016 pursuant to its contract with OPM for the Government’s Federal Flexible Account Program (“FSAFEDS”). The Company initially issued its invoice for these services in February 2017. On December 22, 2017, the Company received the Contracting Officer’s “final decision” refusing payment of the invoiced amount and otherwise denying the Company’s Certified Claim. As a result of this decision, and a related Certified Claim that OPM subsequently denied, on February 8, 2018, the Company filed an appeal to the Civilian Board of Contract Appeals (“CBCA”) against OPM for services provided by the Company between March 1, 2016 and August 31, 2016. On August 3, 2018, the Company also filed an appeal to the CBCA of OPM’s June 21, 2018 denial of a Request for Equitable Adjustment for extra work associated with a contract modification imposing new security and other requirements not part of the original scope of FSAFED’s contract work. In connection with the Company’s claims against OPM, OPM has also claimed that an erroneous statement in a certificate signed by a former executive officer constituted a violation of the False Claims Act and moved to dismiss part of the Company’s claim against OPM as a result. In March 2019, the Company filed a Motion for Summary Judgement with CBCA on the December 22nd denial by the OPM. OPM has moved to defer consideration of the Summary Judgment Motion to permit it further discovery. That Motion has been briefed and the case is on hold pending a ruling by the CBCA which could be handed down any day. In order to accelerate resolution of all matters before the CBCA, the Company’s appeal of the June 21st denial by the OPM was withdrawn on April 9, 2019. The remaining claim related to the OPM’s December 22nd denial, valued at approximately $6.2 million, is scheduled to go to trial in July 2019 if the pending Summary Judgment is denied by the CBCA. As with all legal proceedings, no assurance can be provided as to the outcome of these matters or if the Company will be successful in recovering the full claimed amount.
On March 9, 2018, a putative class action was filed in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California (the “Securities Class Action”). On May 16, 2019, a consolidated amended complaint was filed by the lead plaintiffs asserting claims under Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, against the Company, its former Chief Executive Officer and its former Chief Financial Officer on behalf of purchasers of WageWorks common stock between May 6, 2016 and March 1, 2018. The complaint also alleges claims under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, arising from the Company’s June 19, 2017 common stock offering against those same defendants, as well as the members of its Board of Directors at the time of that offering and the underwriters of the offering.
On June 22, 2018 and September 6, 2018, two derivative lawsuits were filed against certain of our officers and directors and the Company (as nominal defendant) in the Superior Court of the State of California, County of San Mateo. The actions were consolidated. On July 23, 2018, a similar derivative lawsuit was filed against certain of our officers and directors and the Company (as nominal defendant) in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California (together, the “Derivative Suits”).

19


The Derivative Suits purport to allege claims related to breaches of fiduciary duties, waste of corporate assets, and unjust enrichment. In addition, the complaint in District Court includes a claim for abuse of control, and the complaint in Superior Court includes a claim to require the Company to hold an annual shareholder meeting. The allegations in the Derivative Suits relate to substantially the same facts as those underlying the Securities Class Action described above. The plaintiffs seek unspecified damages and fees and costs. In addition, the complaint in the Superior Court seeks for us to provide past operational reports and financial statements, to publish timely and accurate operational reports and financial statements going forward, to hold an annual shareholder meeting, and to take steps to improve its corporate governance and internal procedures.
Plaintiffs in the Superior Court action filed a Consolidated Complaint on May 2, 2019. As stipulated by the parties, and approved by the District Court, the District Court action is stayed. The parties in the District Court action are to notify the District Court within 15 days of (1) the dismissal of the Securities Class Action, (2) the denial of defendants’ motion(s) to dismiss, or (3) a party giving notice that they no longer consent to the voluntary stay.
The Company voluntarily contacted the San Francisco office of the SEC Division of Enforcement regarding the restatement and independent investigation. The Company is providing information and documents to the SEC and will continue to cooperate with the SEC’s investigation into these matters. The U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Northern District of California also opened an investigation. The Company has provided documents and information to the U.S. Attorney’s Office and will continue to cooperate with any inquiries by the U.S. Attorney’s Office regarding the matter.
The Company records a provision for contingent losses when it is both probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. Based on currently available information, the Company does not believe that any additional liabilities relating to other unresolved matters are probable or that the amount of any resulting loss is estimable. In addition, in accordance with the relevant authoritative guidance, for matters which the likelihood of material loss is at least reasonably possible, the Company provides disclosure of the possible loss or range of loss. If a reasonable estimate cannot be made, the Company will provide disclosure to that effect. However, litigation is subject to inherent uncertainties and the Company’s view of these matters may change in the future. Were an unfavorable outcome to occur, there exists the possibility of a material adverse impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows for the period in which the unfavorable outcome occurs, and potentially in future periods.
The Company is involved in various other litigation, governmental proceedings and claims, not described above, that arise in the normal course of business. While it is not possible to determine the ultimate outcome or the duration of such litigation, governmental proceedings or claims, the Company believes, based on current knowledge and the advice of counsel, that such litigation, proceedings and claims will not have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

Note 11     Stockholders’ Equity

Share Repurchase Program

On August 6, 2015, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized a $100 million stock repurchase program for 3 years which commenced on November 5, 2015 and expired on November 4, 2018. There were no shares of common stock repurchased during the three months ended March 31, 2018.

On March 11, 2019, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized a $150 million stock repurchase program for 3 years which commenced on March 13, 2019 and expires on March 12, 2022. Stock repurchases may be made from time-to-time in open market transactions, privately negotiated transactions, through accelerated share repurchase programs, or by any combination of such methods. The timing of any repurchases and the actual number of shares repurchased will depend on a variety of factors, including the Company’s stock price, corporate and regulatory requirements, restrictions under its debt obligations and other market and economic conditions. No shares of common stock have been repurchased under this program to date.

(b) Restricted Stock Units

The Company grants restricted stock units (“RSU”) to certain employees, officers, and directors under the 2010 Plan. Restricted stock units vest upon performance-based or service-based criteria.

During the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, the company granted zero performance-based restricted stock units. Performance-based restricted stock units are typically granted such that they vest upon the achievement of certain revenue growth rates and other financial metrics during a specified performance period for which participants have the ability to receive up to 200% of the target number of shares originally granted, depending on terms of the grant agreement.

Note 13     Income Taxes 

The Company reports income taxes using an asset and liability approach, under which deferred income taxes are provided based upon enacted tax laws and rates applicable to periods in which the taxes become payable. The Company is subject to income taxes in the U.S. federal and various state jurisdictions. Presently, there are no income tax examinations on-going in the jurisdictions where the Company operates.

The Company’s effective tax rate was 25.9% and 20.6% for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively. The income tax provision for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 was $1.4 million and $2.9 million, respectively.

As of March 31, 2019, the Company remains in a net deferred tax asset position. The realization of the Company’s deferred tax assets depends primarily on its ability to generate sufficient U.S. taxable income in future periods. The amount of deferred tax assets considered realizable may increase or decrease in subsequent quarters as management reevaluates the underlying basis for the estimates of future domestic taxable income.
Note 14 Subsequent Events
On June 27, 2019, the Company announced that it entered into a definitive agreement under which HealthEquity, Inc. will acquire all of its issued and outstanding shares of common stock for $51.35 per share in cash.
On May 23, 2019, each of our executive officers (other than our Executive Chairman and CEO) entered into a change in control and severance agreement.
In June 2019, the Board of Directors approved a grant of 728,297 RSUs to directors, executives, and employees of the Company.

Overview

We are a leader in administering Consumer-Directed Benefits (“CDBs”), which empower employees to lower their healthcare related expenditures while also providing corporate tax advantages for employers. We are solely dedicated to administering CDBs, including pre-tax spending accounts such as Health Savings Accounts (“HSAs”), health and dependent care Flexible Spending Accounts (“FSAs”), Health Reimbursement Arrangements (“HRAs”), as well as Commuter Benefit Services, including transit and parking programs, wellness programs, Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act (“COBRA”), and other employee benefits in the United States.

We deliver CDB programs through a highly scalable delivery model that employer clients and their employee participants may access through a standard web browser on any internet-enabled device, including computers, smart phones, and other mobile devices such as tablet computers. Our on-demand delivery model eliminates the need for our employer clients to install and maintain hardware and software in order to support CDB programs and enables us to rapidly implement product enhancements across our entire user base.

Our CDB programs assist employees and their families in saving money by using pre-tax dollars to pay for certain portions of their healthcare, dependent care, and commuter expenses. Employers financially benefit from our programs through reduced payroll taxes, the benefits of which are realized even after factoring in our fees. Under the FSA, HSA, and commuter programs, employee participants contribute funds from their pre-tax income to pay for qualified out-of-pocket healthcare expenses, not fully covered by insurance, such as co-pays, deductibles, and over-the-counter medical products or for commuting costs.

Our services are priced based on the estimated number and types of claims, whether payment processing and client support activities will be provided within or outside of the United States, the estimated number of calls to our customer support center, and any specific client requirements. In addition, we derive a portion of our revenues from interchange fees that we receive when employee participants use the prepaid debit cards we provide to them for healthcare and commuter expenses.

Healthcare Revenue

We derive our healthcare revenue from the service fees paid by our employer clients for the administration services we provide in connection with their employee participants’ FSAs, HRAs, and HSAs. We also earn interchange revenue paid by financial

institutions related to transaction fees on debit cards used by employee participants in connection with all of our healthcare programs and through our wholesale card program and revenue from self-service plan kits called Premium Only Plan kits, or POP revenue.

Healthcare revenue decreased by $3.3 million, or 4% for the three months ended March 31, 2019, as compared to the same period in 2018, primarily due to (FSA) ADP portfolio attrition.

COBRA Revenue

COBRA revenue is derived from administration services we provide to employer clients for continuation of coverage for participants who are no longer eligible for the employer’s health benefits, such as medical, dental, and vision, and for the continued administration of the employee participants’ HRAs and certain healthcare FSAs.

COBRA revenue decreased by $5.2 million, or 18% for the three months ended March 31, 2019, as compared to the same period in 2018. The decrease was primarily due to ADP portfolio attrition, the termination of the Alight partnership, and generally lower COBRA activity.

Commuter Revenue

We derive our commuter revenue from monthly service fees paid by our employer clients, interchange revenue paid by financial institutions related to transaction fees on debit cards used by employee participants in connection with our commuter solutions, and commissions from the sale of transit passes used in our commuter solutions which we purchase from various transit agencies on behalf of employee participants.

Commuter revenue increased by $0.5 million, or 2% for the three months ended March 31, 2019, as compared to the same period in 2018. The increases were primarily due to increased participants.

Other Revenue

Other revenue includes enrollment and eligibility services, employee account administration (i.e., tuition and health club reimbursements), project-related professional fees and other program incentives. 

Other revenue decreased by $0.3 million or 10% for the three months ended March 31, 2019, as compared to the same period in 2018. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease in Direct Bill participants.

Cost of revenues consist of direct expenses for claims processing, product support, and customer service personnel, outsourced and temporary labor, check/ACH payment processing services, debit card processing services, shipping and handling, passes, and employee participant communications.

Cost of revenues decreased by $6.0 million or 13% for the three months ended March 31, 2019, as compared to the same period in 2018. The decreases were primarily due to lower outsourced services & printing and fulfillment costs, as well as lower stock-based compensation expense due to the suspension of stock award grants, partially offset by higher Technology costs.
Cost of revenues will continue to be affected by our portfolio purchases, acquisitions and channel partner arrangements. Prior to migrating to our proprietary technology platforms, new portfolios often operate with higher service delivery costs that result in increased cost of revenues until we are able to complete the migration process, which is targeted to occur within 12 to 24 months of the portfolio acquisition date.

Technology and development expenses increased by $3.3 million, or 25% for the three months ended March 31, 2019, as compared to the same period in 2018. The increase was primarily due to increased outside services, technology, and depreciation.
 
We intend to continue enhancing the functionality of our software platform as part of our continuous effort to improve our employer client and employee participant experience and to maintain and enhance our control and compliance environment. The timing of development and enhancement projects, including the nature of expenditures as well as the phase of the project that could require capitalization or expense treatment, will significantly affect our technology and development expense both in dollar amount and as a percentage of revenues.

Sales and marketing expenses were consistent for the three months ended March 31, 2019, as compared to the same period in 2018.

We will continue to invest in sales, client services, and marketing by hiring additional personnel and continuing to build our broker and channel relationships. We will also promote our brand through a variety of marketing and public relations activities. As a result, we expect our sales and marketing expenses to increase in future periods.

General and administrative expenses increased by $2.7 million or 11% for the three months ended March 31, 2019, as compared to the same period in 2018. The increase was primarily due to higher professional fees attributed to excess restatement and audit related costs partially offset by lower stock-based compensation expense due to the suspension of stock award grants.

We expect that general and administrative expenses will continue to increase in absolute dollars in order to support our continued growth as we expand general and administrative headcount.

Our amortization consists of two components: amortization of internal use software and amortization of acquired intangible assets. We capitalize our software development costs related to the development and enhancement of our business solutions. When the technology is available for its intended use, the capitalized costs are amortized over the technology’s estimated useful life, which is generally four years. Acquisition-related intangible assets are also amortized over their estimated useful lives.  

Amortization increased by $0.9 million or 9% for the three months ended March 31, 2019 as compared to the same periods in 2018. The increase was primarily driven by an increase in amortization resulting from internal use software due to increased investment in software development projects.

Income tax provision decreased by $1.4 million or 50% for the three months ended March 31, 2019, as compared to the same period in 2018. The decrease in the income tax provision for the three months ended March 31, 2019 as compared to the same period in 2018 is primarily a result of the tax effect from the reduction of income before tax offset by the impact of increase in the effective tax rate due to increase in state income taxes.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of March 31, 2019, our principal sources of liquidity were cash and cash equivalents totaling $782.8 million and short-term investments totaling $183.6 million comprised primarily of funding by clients of amounts to be paid on behalf of employee participants, as well as other cash flows from operating activities.

We believe that our existing cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments, and the available credit from our revolving credit facility will be sufficient to meet our working capital, debt, and capital expenditures, as well as anticipated cash requirements for potential future portfolio purchases over at least the next 12 months. We have historically been able to fulfill our obligations as incurred and expect to continue to fulfill our obligations in the future. Our expectation is based on our current and anticipated client retention rates and our continuing funding model in which the vast majority of our enterprise clients provide us with prefunds as more fully described below under “Prefunds”. To the extent these current and anticipated future sources of liquidity are insufficient to fund our future business activities and requirements, including any potential portfolio purchases, we may need to raise additional funds through public or private equity or debt financing. We cannot provide assurance that we will be able to raise additional funds on favorable terms, if at all.

Prefunds

Under our contracts with the vast majority of our employer clients, we receive prefunds that have been and are expected to continue to be a significant source of cash flows from operating activities. Our client contracts do not contain restrictions on our use of client prefunds and, as a result, each prefund is reflected in cash and cash equivalents on our consolidated balance sheet with an equivalent customer obligation recorded as a liability as the prefund is received. Changes in these prefunds and the corresponding customer obligations are reflected in our cash flows from operating activities. The timing of when employer clients make their prefunds as well as the timing of when we make payments on behalf of employee participants can significantly affect our cash flows.

The operation of these prefunds for our employer clients throughout the year typically is as follows: at the beginning of a plan year, these employer clients provide us with prefunds for their FSA and HRA programs based on a percentage of projected spending by the employee participants for the plan year and other factors. In the case of our commuter program, at the beginning of each month we receive prefunds based on the employee participants’ monthly elections. These prefunds are typically replenished on a weekly basis by our FSA and HRA employer clients and on a monthly basis by our commuter employer clients, in each case, the replenishment occurs after we have advanced the funds necessary to process employee participants’ FSA and HRA claims as they are submitted to us and to pay vendors relating to our commuter programs. As a result, our cash balances can vary significantly depending upon the timing of invoicing and the date payment is received from our employer clients for reimbursement of payments we have made on behalf of employee participants.

Revolving Credit Facility (Credit Agreement)

On April 4, 2017, we entered into a Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with MUFG Union Bank, N.A., as administrative agent (“Agent”). The Credit Agreement amends and restates our existing Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, and increased our borrowing capacity under the revolving credit facility to $400.0 million, with a $15.0 million letter of credit sub-facility. The Credit Agreement contains an increase option permitting us, subject to certain conditions and requirements, to arrange with existing lenders and/or new lenders to provide up to an aggregate of $100.0 million in additional commitments. Loan proceeds may be used for general corporate purposes, including acquisitions permitted under the Credit Agreement. We may prepay loans under the Credit Agreement in whole or in part at any time without premium or penalty. The fees incurred in connection with this Credit Agreement are classified as a direct deduction from long-term debt in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. The Second Amended Credit Agreement contains financial and non-financial covenants including debt ratio and interest coverage ratio requirements. The Company is currently in compliance with all the covenants under the credit facility.
In the first quarter of 2019, we entered into a Third Reporting Extension Agreement and paid the Agent $0.1 million to extend the delivery date of the 2018 Annual Report on Form 10-K to May 10, 2019. In the second quarter of 2019, we entered into a Fourth Reporting Extension Agreement and paid the Agent $0.1 million to extend the delivery date of the 2018 Annual Report on Form 10-K to May 31, 2019. The fees incurred were added to loan financing fees to be amortized to interest expense over the remaining life of the loan.
As of March 31, 2019, we had $187.0 million outstanding under the revolving credit facility and $210.0 million unused revolving credit facility still available to borrow under the Credit Agreement. As of March 31, 2019, the interest rate applicable to the revolving credit facility was 3.99% per annum.

Cash Flows from Operating Activities

໿
໿
Net cash used in operating activities increased for the three months ended March 31, 2019 as compared to the same period of 2018 by $73.3 million. The increase in cash used in operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2019 was primarily due to changes in working capital largely driven by timing of prefunding and employer client payments.

Cash Flows from Investing Activities
໿

Net cash provided by investing activities was $34.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019, primarily due to $39.1 million of net proceeds from sales and purchases of investments, offset by $4.4 million of investment in capital expenditures.

Net cash used in investing activities was $73.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018, primarily due to $65.4 million net purchases of investments and $7.6 million of investment in capital expenditures.

Cash Flows from Financing Activities

໿
໿
Net cash used in financing activities was $60.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019, primarily due to a repayment of debt principal in the amount of $60.0 million.

Net cash provided by financing activities was $2.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018 which consisted of approximately $2.3 million in proceeds from exercises of stock options and sale of stock under the 2012 Employee Stock Purchase Plan, partially offset by a $0.2 million payment of taxes related to net share settlement of stock-based compensation arrangements.

Contractual Obligations

There were no material changes, outside of the ordinary course of business, in our contractual obligations from those disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.

Critical Accounting Policies and Significant Management Estimates

There have been no material changes to the Company’s critical accounting estimates during the three months ended March 31, 2019. Other than the adoption of ASU 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842)”, there have been no material changes to the Company’s critical accounting policies during the three months ended March 31, 2019 compared to the policies disclosed in the “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
Other than outstanding letters of credit issued under our revolving credit facility, we do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements. The majority of the standby letters of credit expire in one year. However, in the ordinary course of business, we will continue to renew or modify the terms of the letters of credit to support business requirements. The letters of credit are contingent liabilities, supported by our revolving credit facility, and are not reflected on our condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

There have been no material changes in the Company’s market risk during the three months ended March 31, 2019.  For additional information, see Part II, Item 7A., “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk”, of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures.
We have, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and our Chief Financial Officer (CFO), evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2019. The term “disclosure controls and procedures,” as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act, means controls and other procedures of a company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms.
Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the company’s management, including its principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Based on the evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2019, our CEO and CFO concluded that, as of such date, due to the identification of material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting, as further described in our 2018 Form 10-K, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.
Notwithstanding the material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting reported in the Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2018, we have concluded that the condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q fairly present, in all material respects, our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Additional Analyses and Procedures and Remediation Plan

We have begun remediating the material weaknesses identified by management and described in greater detail in our 2018 Form 10-K. Although we intend to complete the remediation process with respect to this material weaknesses as quickly as possible, we cannot at this time estimate how long it will take, and our remediation plan may not prove to be successful.
Because the reliability of the internal control process requires repeatable execution, the successful remediation of the company’s material weaknesses will require review and evidence of effectiveness prior to concluding that the controls are effective, and there is no assurance that additional remediation steps will not be necessary. As such, as we continue to evaluate and work to improve our internal control over financial reporting, our management may decide to take additional measures to address the material weaknesses or modify the remediation steps already underway. As noted above, although we plan to complete the remediation process as quickly as possible, we cannot at this time estimate how long it will take, and our initiatives may not prove to be successful. Accordingly, until this weakness is remediated, we are performing additional analyses and other procedures to ensure that our condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with GAAP.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Our remediation efforts were ongoing during the period of the report. During 2019, the Company has filled certain key leadership roles in Accounting and Risk Management and is in the process of enhancing capabilities of that department. The Company has engaged Senior Leadership across the various departments of the organization to have ownership of areas of controls and remediation. Performance measurement metrics across various levels of the organization have also incorporated controls remediation as a key element. In addition, an outside service provider has been engaged to assist with the remediation efforts in the areas of identified weaknesses.
In order to remediate our existing material weaknesses, we require additional time to complete the implementation of our remediation plans and demonstrate the effectiveness of our remediation efforts. The material weaknesses cannot be considered remediated until the applicable remedial controls operate for a sufficient period of time and management has concluded, through testing, that these controls are operating effectively.

29


Other than the remediation efforts outlined above, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation required by Rule 13a-15(d) and 15d-15(d) of the Exchange Act that occurred during the quarter ended March 31, 2019, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls and Procedures

In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. In addition, the design of disclosure controls and procedures must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and that management is required to apply judgment in evaluating the benefits of possible controls and procedures relative to their costs.

Appointment of Ismail (Izzy) Dawood as Chief Financial Officer
On October 10, 2018, Mr. Dawood entered into an at-will employment offer letter with the Company in connection with his appointment as full-time Chief Financial Officer. Under the employment offer letter, Mr. Dawood is eligible to receive a base salary at the annualized rate of $400,000 and is eligible to receive a cash bonus at a target amount of 75% of his base salary, pro-rated based upon the number of months during the year that he is eligible to participate under the terms of the bonus plan to be established by us. Mr. Dawood also received a one-time cash signing bonus of $100,000, payable in a lump sum on his start date. No equity awards were granted to Mr. Dawood in 2018. Following the S-8 Filing Date, Mr. Dawood also will receive equity awards consisting of (1) a grant of an option to purchase 76,878 shares of our common stock (the “Dawood Option”) and (2) a grant of 29,976 restricted stock units covering shares of our common stock (the “Dawood RSU Award”) (each, a “Dawood Equity Award”). The Dawood Option shall vest as to 25% of the shares subject to the Option on the one-year anniversary of his start date and an additional 1/48th of the total shares subject to the Option on each of the 36 succeeding months thereafter. The Dawood RSU Award shall vest in annual installments on each of the four anniversaries of his start date. Vesting of the Dawood Equity Awards is subject to him remaining in service with us.
Further, in connection with Mr. Dawood’s appointment as full-time Chief Financial Officer, the Tatum Agreement terminated. Mr. Dawood forfeited his right to receive a completion bonus of $200,000 pursuant to the Tatum Agreement. This payment was contingent upon Mr. Dawood not being appointed the Company’s full-time Chief Financial Officer.
In April 2019, our Board, with input from the Compensation Committee, approved a bonus payment to Mr. Dawood of $150,000 for 2018 performance after considering the pro-rated target bonus opportunity for Mr. Dawood’s for 2018 under his offer letter, his and the company’s 2018 performance, including his extraordinary leadership in guiding our finance team to completing the filings relating to our Announced Restatement.
