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 save money on taxes while also providing corporate tax advantages for employers. The Company operates as a single reportable segment on an entity level basis.

Basis Of Presentation

Basis of Presentation

In the opinion of the Company’s management, 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 accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”), including all adjustments as a result of the Company's restatement. The results of the interim period presented herein are not necessarily indicative of the results of future periods or annual results for the year ended December 31, 2016.

These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements and the related notes should be read in conjunction with the December 31, 2015 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, 2015 consolidated balance sheets, included in this interim Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q/A, were derived from audited financial statements.

There have been no material changes in the Company’s significant accounting policies from those that were disclosed in the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2015 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, except for the impairment of long-lived assets, which is discussed below in the caption, Accounting for Impairment of Long-lived Assets.

Principles Of Consolidation

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

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Significant estimates in these condensed consolidated financial statements include allowances for doubtful accounts, estimates of future cash flows associated with assets, useful lives for depreciation and amortization, loss contingencies, expired and unredeemed products, deferred tax assets, reserve for income tax uncertainties, the assumptions used for stock-based compensation, the assumptions used for software and website development cost classification, and valuation and impairments of goodwill and long-lived assets. Actual results could differ from those estimates. In making its estimates, the Company considers the current economic and legislative environment and has considered those factors when reviewing the underlying assumptions of the estimates.

Fair Value Of Financial Instruments

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company’s financial assets and liabilities are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring basis. The carrying amount of financial instruments approximates fair value because of their short maturity. The carrying amount of the Company’s variable rate debt approximates fair value.

The Company utilizes valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs to the extent possible. The Company determines fair value based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability in the principal or most advantageous market. When considering market participant assumptions in fair value measurements, the following fair value hierarchy distinguishes between observable and unobservable inputs, which are categorized in one of the following levels:


•	Level 1 Inputs: Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities accessible to the reporting entity at the measurement date.


•	Level 2 Inputs: Other than quoted prices included in Level 1 inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.


•	Level 3 Inputs: Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability used to measure fair value to the extent that observable inputs are not available, thereby allowing for situations in which there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability at measurement date.

The contingent consideration payable related to the acquisition of Benefit Concepts, Inc. (“BCI”) was recorded at fair value on the acquisition date and is adjusted quarterly to fair value. The increases or decreases in the fair value of contingent consideration payable can result from changes in anticipated revenue levels and changes in assumed discount periods and rates. As the fair value measure is based on significant inputs that are not observable in the market, it is categorized as Level 3. The final contingent consideration for BCI was paid during the first quarter of 2016.

Other financial instruments not measured at fair value on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets at June 30, 2016, but which require disclosure of their fair values include: cash and cash equivalents (including restricted cash), accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses, and debt under the revolving credit facility with certain lenders. The estimated fair value of such instruments at June 30, 2016 approximates their carrying value as reported on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. The fair value of all of these instruments are categorized as Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, with the exception of cash, which is categorized as Level 1 due to its short-term nature.

The following table provides a reconciliation between the beginning and ending balances of items measured at fair value on a recurring basis that used significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) (in thousands):



	Contingent Consideration BCI
Balance at December 31, 2015	$	739
Gains or losses included in earnings:
Losses on revaluation of contingent consideration	11
Payment of contingent consideration	(750		)
Balance at June 30, 2016	$	—

The Company measures contingent consideration elements each reporting period at fair value and recognizes changes in fair value in earnings each period in the amortization, impairment and change in contingent consideration line item on the condensed consolidated statements of income (loss), until the contingency is resolved. Losses on revaluation of contingent consideration result from accretion charges due to the passage of time and fair value adjustments due to changes in forecasted revenue levels.

The Company recorded an immaterial charge for the change in fair value of the contingent consideration for the three months ended June 30, 2015, with no charge recorded for the three months ended June 30, 2016. The Company recorded $0.1 million and an immaterial charge for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2016, respectively, as a result of accretion charges due to the passage of time.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASU 2014-09”) which supersedes existing accounting literature relating to how and when a company recognizes revenue. Under ASU 2014-09, a company will recognize revenue when it transfers promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods and services. Additionally, the guidance requires improved disclosures to help users of financial statements better understand the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers. The new standard allows for either a full retrospective with or without practical expedients or a retrospective with a cumulative catch-up on adoption transition method. In July 2015, the FASB deferred the effective date for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017 (including interim reporting periods within those periods) in ASU 2015-14. Early adoption is permitted to the original effective date for periods beginning after December 15, 2016 (including interim reporting periods within those periods). The Company is in the process of determining which transition method it will use and what impact, if any, the adoption of ASU 2014-09 will have on its condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

Subsequent to the issuance of ASU 2014-09, the FASB has issued several ASUs such as ASU 2016-08, Revenue from Contracts with Customers: Principal versus Agent Considerations (Reporting Revenue Gross versus Net), ASU 2016-10, FASB Accounting Standards Codification - Consensuses of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force, and ASU 2016-12, Revenue from Contracts with Customers: Narrow-Scope Improvements and Practical Expedients among others. These ASUs do not change the core principle of the guidance stated in ASU 2014-09; instead, these amendments are intended to clarify and improve operability of certain topics included within the revenue standard. These ASUs had the same effective date and transition requirements as ASU 2014-09, the Company is evaluating the impact this standard will have on its condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In April 2015, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2015-05, Customer's Accounting for Fees Paid in a Cloud Computing Arrangement (“ASU 2015-05”). ASU 2015-05 provides guidance to customers about whether a cloud computing arrangement includes a software license. If a cloud computing arrangement includes a software license, then the customer should account for the software license element of the arrangement consistent with the acquisition of other software license. If a cloud computing arrangement does not include a software license, the customer should account for the arrangement as a service contract. The guidance will not change U.S. GAAP for a customer's accounting for service contracts. The Company adopted ASU 2015-05 in the first quarter of 2016. The adoption of ASU 2015-05 did not have a material impact on the condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In February 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-02, Leases, (“ASU 2016-02”). Under the new guidance, lessees will be required to recognize a lease liability and a right-of-use asset for all leases (with the exception of short-term leases) at the commencement date. The ASU is effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those years beginning after December 15, 2018, with early adoption permitted. The new standard is required to be applied with a modified retrospective approach to each prior reporting period presented with various optional practical expedients. The Company is currently assessing what impact, if any, the adoption of this ASU will have on its condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In March 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standard Update No. 2016-04, Recognition of Breakage for Certain Prepaid Stored-Value Products, (“ASU 2016-04”). The new guidance creates an exception under ASC 405-20, Liabilities-Extinguishments of Liabilities, to derecognize financial liabilities related to certain prepaid stored-value products using a revenue-like breakage model. The new guidance is effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those years beginning after December 15, 2017, with early adoption permitted. This guidance can be applied either retrospectively to each period presented or as a cumulative-effect adjustment as of the date of adoption. The Company elected to not early adopt ASU 2016-09 and will reflect the impact in the subsequent year condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-09, Compensation-Stock Compensation: Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting, (“ASU 2016-09”). The updated guidance changes how companies account for certain aspects of share-based payment awards to employees, including the accounting for income taxes, forfeitures, and statutory tax withholding requirements, as well as classification in the statement of cash flows. The update to the standard is effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those years beginning after December 15, 2016, with early adoption permitted.
