Note 1. Overview, Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies

Description of Business

Donnelley Financial Solutions, Inc. and subsidiaries (“DFIN,” or the “Company”) is a leading global risk and compliance solutions company. The Company provides regulatory filing and deal solutions via its software technology-enabled services and print and distribution solutions to public and private companies, mutual funds and other regulated investment firms, to serve its clients’ regulatory and compliance needs. DFIN helps its clients comply with applicable regulations where and how they want to work in a digital world, providing numerous solutions tailored to each client’s precise needs. The prevailing trend is toward clients choosing to utilize the Company’s software solutions, in conjunction with its tech-enabled services, to meet their document and filing needs, while at the same time shifting away from physical print and distribution of documents, except for cases where it is still regulatorily required or requested by shareholders.

For corporate clients within its capital markets offerings, the Company offers solutions that allow U.S. public companies to comply with applicable U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) regulations including filing agent services, digital document creation and online content management tools that support their corporate financial transactions and regulatory reporting; solutions to facilitate clients’ communications with their shareholders; and virtual data rooms and other deal management solutions. For investment companies, including mutual fund and alternative investment companies, the Company provides solutions for creating and filing high-quality regulatory documents as well as solutions for investors designed to improve the speed and accuracy of their access to investment information. The Company serves its clients’ regulatory and compliance needs throughout their respective life cycles.

Services and Products

The Company separately reports its net sales and related cost of sales for its software solutions, tech-enabled services and print and distribution offerings. The Company’s software solutions consist of Venue® Virtual Data Room (“Venue”), ActiveDisclosure, eBrevia, FundSuiteArc, and others. The Company’s tech-enabled services offerings consist of document composition, compliance-related SEC’s Electronic Data Gathering, Analysis, and Retrieval (“EDGAR”) filing services and transaction solutions. The Company’s print and distribution offerings primarily consist of conventional and digital printed products and the related shipping.

Segments

In the first quarter of 2020, management realigned the Company’s operating segments to reflect changes in the manner in which the chief operating decision maker assesses information for decision-making purposes. The Company’s four operating and reportable segments are: Capital Markets – Software Solutions (“CM-SS”), Capital Markets – Compliance and Communications Management (“CM-CCM”), Investment Companies – Software Solutions (“IC-SS”), and Investment Companies – Compliance and Communications Management (“IC-CCM”). Corporate is not an operating segment and consists primarily of unallocated selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) activities and associated expenses. All prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the Company’s current reporting structure. See Note 12, Segment Information, for additional information.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of DFIN and have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and in accordance with the rules and regulations of the SEC. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. The financial data presented herein should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in the Company’s latest Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 filed with the SEC on February 26, 2020 (the “Annual Report”). In the opinion of management, the financial data presented includes all adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented. Results of interim periods should not be considered indicative of the results for the full year.

Certain previously reported amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current presentation, there was no impact on the Company’s previously reported consolidated statements of operations, statements of comprehensive income, balance sheets, statements of cash flows or statements of changes in stockholders’ equity.

Significant Accounting Policies

Use of Estimates—The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires the extensive use of management’s estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as well as disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from these estimates. The Company’s significant accounting policies and critical estimates are disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report.

Prepaid Expenses—As of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, prepaid expenses were $10.6 million and $9.6 million, respectively.

Inventory—The components of the Company’s inventories stated at the lower of cost or market, net of excess and obsolescence reserves for raw materials, at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 were as follows:  

	June 30, 2020		December 31, 2019
Raw materials and manufacturing supplies	$	4.2	$	3.9
Work in process		6.8		7.2
Total	$	11.0	$	11.1

Property, Plant and Equipment—The components of the Company’s property, plant and equipment, net at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 were as follows:

	June 30, 2020			December 31, 2019
Land	$	2.8		$	0.3
Buildings		31.1			26.8
Machinery and equipment		112.3			111.9
		146.2			139.0
Less: Accumulated depreciation		(127.2	)		(121.5	)
Total	$	19.0		$	17.5

Depreciation expense was $4.1 million and $1.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, and $5.8 million and $3.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

Assets Held for Sale—As of December 31, 2019, the Company had one real estate property, primarily consisting of land and an office building, held for sale with a carrying value of $5.6 million. In the second quarter of 2020, the Company suspended the sale process due to uncertainties in the real estate market as a result of the coronavirus pandemic and reclassified assets held for sale back into its respective property, plant and equipment categories.

Software—Capitalized software development costs are amortized over their estimated useful life using the straight-line method, up to a maximum of three years. Amortization expense related to internally-developed software, excluding amortization expense related to other intangible assets, was $7.3 million and $6.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, and $14.6 million and $13.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

Investments—The carrying value of the Company’s investments in equity securities was $12.3 million and $25.2 million at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively. During the three months ended June 30, 2020, the Company sold one of its investments in equity securities for $12.8 million, which approximated the carrying value of the investment. The Company measures its equity securities that do not have a readily determinable fair value, at cost minus impairment, if any, plus or minus changes resulting from observable price changes in orderly transactions for the identical or a similar investment of the same issuer. The Company performs an assessment on a quarterly basis to determine whether triggering events for impairment exist and to identify any observable price changes. During the six months ended June 30, 2020, there were no events or changes in circumstances that suggested an impairment or an observable price change of any of these investments resulting from an orderly transaction for the identical or a similar investment.

Share-based Compensation—Share-based compensation expense was $3.1 million and $3.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, and $5.4 million and $5.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The income tax benefit related to share-based compensation expense was $0.5 million and $0.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, and $0.6 million and $1.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued an Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326) Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (“ASU 2016-13”), which replaces the incurred loss model with a current expected credit loss (“CECL”) model and requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information to explain credit loss estimates. This standard applies to financial assets, measured at amortized cost, including loans, held-to-maturity debt securities, net investments in leases and trade accounts receivable. The guidance must be adopted using a modified retrospective transition method through a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings in the period of adoption.

On January 1, 2020, the Company adopted the standard and recorded a $0.5 million cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings. The Company’s credit loss reserves primarily relate to trade receivables, unbilled receivables and contract assets. The Company establishes provisions at differing rates, which are region or country-specific, and are based upon the age of the trade receivable, the Company’s historical collection experience in each region or country and lines of business, where appropriate. Provisions for unbilled receivables and contract assets are established based on rates which management believes to be appropriate considering its historical experience. Specific customer provisions are made when a review of significant outstanding amounts, utilizing information about customer creditworthiness and current economic trends, indicates that collection is doubtful.

Transactions affecting the current expected credit loss reserve during the six months ended June 30, 2020 were as follows:

	June 30, 2020
Balance, beginning of year	$	7.7
Adoption of ASU 2016-13		0.5
Provisions charged to expense and reclassifications		4.3

Balance, end of period (a)	$	11.5

(a) As of June 30, 2020, the CECL reserve balance is comprised of a $10.7 million provision for accounts receivable and a $0.8 million provision for unbilled receivables and contract assets, all of which are included in receivables, net on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. As of December 31, 2019, prior to the adoption of ASU 2016-13, the reserve balance was comprised of a $7.7 million allowance for doubtful accounts.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-15, “Intangibles - Goodwill and Other - Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40).” The standard requires a customer in a hosting arrangement that is a service contract to follow the internal-use software guidance to determine which implementation costs to capitalize as an asset related to the service contract and to expense the capitalized implementation costs over the term of the hosting arrangement. The standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and the interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company adopted the standard prospectively on January 1, 2020. The adoption of the standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting (“ASU 2020-04”), which provides optional guidance for a limited period of time to use optional expedients and exceptions for applying U.S. GAAP to contracts and other transactions affected by reference rate reform, if certain criteria are met. The amendments in ASU 2020-04 apply only to contracts and other transactions that reference the London Inter-bank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) or another reference rate expected to be discontinued due to reference rate reform. Generally, the expedients and exceptions provided by ASU 2020-04 would only be allowed for contract modifications made prior to December 31, 2022. The Company adopted the standard prospectively in the second quarter of 2020. The adoption of the standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes (“ASU 2019-12”), which modifies ASC 740, Income Taxes, to simplify the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions for recognizing deferred taxes for investments, performing intraperiod allocation and calculating income taxes in interim periods. ASU 2019-12 also adds guidance to reduce complexity in certain areas, including recognizing deferred taxes for tax goodwill and allocating taxes to members of a consolidated group. The standard is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2020. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of this standard will have on its condensed consolidated financial statements.

Note 2. Revenue

Revenue Recognition

The Company manages highly-customized data and materials, such as filings with the SEC on behalf of its customers pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Act”), manages virtual data rooms and performs eXtensible Business Reporting Language (“XBRL”) and related services. Clients are provided with EDGAR filing services, XBRL compliance services and translation, editing, interpreting, proof-reading and multilingual typesetting services, among others. The Company’s software solutions include Venue, the FundSuiteArc software platform, ActiveDisclosure and data and analytics, among others.

Substantially all of the Company’s revenue is derived from contracts with an initial expected duration of one year or less. Generally, customer payment is due within ten days upon invoicing.

Revenue is recognized upon transfer of control of promised services or products to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for those services or products. The Company’s arrangements with customers often include promises to transfer multiple services or products to a customer. Determining whether services and products are considered distinct performance obligations that should be accounted for separately requires significant judgment. Certain customer arrangements have multiple performance obligations as certain promises are both capable of being distinct and are distinct within the context of the contract. Other customer arrangements have a single performance obligation as the promise to transfer the individual goods or services is not separately identifiable from other promises in the contracts, and therefore are not distinct.

Revenue for the Company’s tech-enabled services, software solutions and print and distribution offerings is recognized either over time or at a point in time, as outlined below.

(in millions, except per share data, unless otherwise indicated)

Over time

The Company recognizes revenue for certain services over time:

• The Company’s software solutions, including Venue, the FundSuiteArc software platform, ActiveDisclosure, data and analytics and others, are generally provided on a subscription basis and allow customers access to use the products over the contract period. As a result, software solutions revenue is predominantly recognized ratably over time as the customer receives the benefit throughout the contract period. The timing of invoicing varies, however, the customer may be invoiced before the end of the contract period, resulting in a deferred revenue balance.

Point in time

Certain revenue arrangements, primarily for tech-enabled services and print and distribution offerings, are recognized at a point in time and are primarily invoiced upon completion of all services or upon shipment to the customer.

• Certain arrangements include multiple performance obligations and revenue is recognized upon completion of each performance obligation, such as when a document is filed with a regulatory agency and upon completion of printing the related document. For arrangements with multiple performance obligations, the transaction price is allocated to the separate performance obligations. The Company provides customer specific solutions and as such, observable standalone selling price is rarely available. Standalone selling price is determined using an estimate of the standalone selling price of each distinct service or product, taking into consideration historical selling price by customer for each distinct service or product. These estimates may vary from the final amounts invoiced to the customer and are adjusted upon completion of all performance obligations. Customers may be invoiced subsequent to the recognition of revenue for completed performance obligations, resulting in contract asset balances.

• Revenue for arrangements which include assisting customers in completing regulatory filings for transactions, such as mergers and acquisitions or other public capital market transactions, is recognized upon completion of all obligations, including the services performed and printing of the related document, if applicable.

• Revenue for arrangements without a regulatory filing generally have a single performance obligation. As the services and products provided are not distinct within the context of the contract, the revenue is recognized upon completion of the services performed or upon completion of printing of the related product.

• Warehousing, fulfillment services and shipping and handling are each separate performance obligations. As a result, when the Company provides warehousing and future fulfillment services, revenue for the composition services performed and printing of the product is recognized upon completion of the performance obligation(s), as control of the inventory has transferred to the customer and the inventory is being stored at the customer’s request.

Because substantially all of the Company’s products are customized, product returns are not significant; however, the Company accrues for the estimated amount of customer credits at the time of sale.

The Company records deferred revenue when amounts are invoiced but the revenue recognition criteria are not yet met. Such revenue is recognized when all criteria are subsequently met.

Certain revenues earned by the Company require significant judgment to determine if revenue should be recorded gross, as a principal, or net of related costs, as an agent. Billings for shipping and handling costs as well as certain postage costs, and out-of-pocket expenses are recorded gross. Revenue is not recognized for customer-supplied postage. The Company’s printing operations process paper that may be supplied directly by customers or may be purchased by the Company from third parties and sold to customers. Revenue is not recognized for customer-supplied paper, however, revenues for Company-supplied paper are recognized on a gross basis. Revenue is recognized net of any taxes collected from customers, which are subsequently remitted to authorities. The Company expenses the costs to obtain the contract, primarily commissions, as incurred.

Disaggregation of revenue

The following table disaggregates revenue between tech-enabled services, software solutions and print and distribution by reportable segment:

Unbilled Receivables and Contract Balances

The timing of revenue recognition may differ from the timing of invoicing customers and these timing differences result in unbilled receivables, contract assets or contract liabilities. Contract assets represent revenue recognized for performance obligations completed before an unconditional right to payment exists, and therefore invoicing has not yet occurred. Unbilled receivables are recorded when there is an unconditional right to payment and invoicing has not yet occurred. Unbilled receivables were $73.3 million at June 30, 2020 and $33.5 million at December 31, 2019. Contract assets were $10.4 million at June 30, 2020 and $8.9 million at December 31, 2019, respectively. Generally, the contract assets balance is impacted by the recognition of additional contract assets, offset by amounts invoiced to customers. For the six months ended June 30, 2020, final amounts invoiced to customers exceeded estimates of standalone selling price as of December 31, 2019 for the related arrangements by approximately $0.1 million. Unbilled receivables and contract assets are included in accounts receivable on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Contract liabilities consist of deferred revenue and progress billings which are included in accrued liabilities on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Changes in contract liabilities for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, were as follows:

Balance at January 1, 2020	$	13.1
Deferral of revenue		22.9
Revenue recognized		(21.0	)
Balance at June 30, 2020	$	15.0

Note 3. Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

As discussed in Note 1, Overview, Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies, during the first quarter of 2020, management realigned the Company’s operating segments. DFIN’s four operating segments are the same as its reporting units: CM-SS; CM-CCM; IC-SS; IC-CCM (“Current Structure”). The Company previously had three reporting units: Capital Markets, Investment Markets and International (“Previous Structure”), that each had goodwill.

As a result of the new segmentation, a goodwill impairment analysis was completed for the Previous Structure during the first quarter of 2020, before the reallocation of goodwill to the Current Structure. Each of the reporting units under the Previous Structure was reviewed for impairment using a quantitative assessment, where the estimated fair value of each reporting unit was compared to its carrying amount, including goodwill. The Company did not recognize any goodwill impairment as the estimated fair values of all reporting units exceeded their respective carrying amounts. In addition to the impairment analysis under the Previous Structure, a goodwill impairment analysis was completed under the Current Structure during the first quarter of 2020 and no goodwill impairment was recognized as the estimated fair values of all reporting units exceeded their respective carrying amounts. Goodwill was reassigned to the Current Structure using a relative fair value approach.

The balances of goodwill by segment are presented below:

	Net book value at March 31, 2020		Foreign exchange and other adjustments		Net book value at June 30, 2020
Capital Markets - Software Solutions	$	103.6	$	—	$	103.6
Capital Markets - Compliance and Communication    Management		252.5		—		252.5
Investment Companies - Software Solutions		53.0		0.2		53.2
Investment Companies - Compliance and Communication    Management		40.6		—		40.6
Total	$	449.7	$	0.2	$	449.9

The components of other intangible assets at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 were as follows:

	June 30, 2020										December 31, 2019
	Gross Carrying Amount		Accumulated Impairment Charges			Accumulated Amortization			Net Book Value		Gross Carrying Amount		Accumulated Impairment Charges			Accumulated Amortization			Net Book Value

Amortization expense for other intangible assets was $3.3 million and $3.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, and $6.7 million and $7.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019. The weighted-average remaining useful life of the unamortized intangible assets as of June 30, 2020 is approximately nine years.

Note 4. Leases

The Company has operating leases for certain service centers, office space, warehouses and equipment. The Company paid $6.1 million and $7.1 million related to its operating lease liabilities for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, and $12.9 million and $13.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively.     

The components of lease expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 were as follows:

Accrued liabilities	$	20.7	$	22.6
Noncurrent lease liabilities		59.8		57.9
Total	$	80.5	$	80.5

As further disclosed in Note 5, Restructuring, Impairment and Other Charges, during the second quarter of 2020, the Company recorded impairment charges of $12.1 million on operating lease right-of-use (“ROU”) assets in certain locations.

Note 5. Restructuring, Impairment and Other Charges

Restructuring, Impairment and Other Charges recognized in Results of Operations

The Company records restructuring charges associated with management-approved restructuring plans, which could include the elimination of job functions, closure or relocation of facilities, reorganization of operations, changes in management structure, workforce reductions or other actions. Restructuring charges may include ongoing and enhanced termination benefits related to employee separations, contract termination costs, impairment of certain assets and other related costs associated with exit or disposal activities. Severance benefits are provided to employees primarily under the Company’s ongoing benefit arrangements. These severance costs are accrued once management commits to a plan of termination and it becomes probable that employees will be separated and entitled to benefits at amounts that can be reasonably estimated. In some instances, the Company enhances its ongoing termination benefits with one-time termination benefits and employee severance costs to be incurred in relation to these restructuring activities are recognized when employees are notified of their enhanced termination benefits.

(in millions, except per share data, unless otherwise indicated)

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company recorded net restructuring charges of $12.3 million and $13.9 million, respectively, for employee termination costs for approximately 460 and 510 employees, respectively. The restructuring actions were primarily the result of the upcoming implementation of SEC Rule 30e-3 and amendments to SEC Rule 498A, both of which will significantly reduce print volumes beginning January 1, 2021, and the reorganization of certain capital markets operations as well as selling and administrative functions. Although some employees were terminated as of June 30, 2020, the majority of employees will continue to provide services at least through December 31, 2020.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, the Company recorded net restructuring charges of $3.8 million and $5.8 million for employee termination costs for approximately 95 and 165 employees, respectively, substantially all of whom were terminated as of June 30, 2019. These charges primarily related to the reorganization of certain operations.

The Company abandoned certain operating leases during the second quarter with the intent to sublease. As the fair value of the ROU assets was less than the carrying value, the Company recognized impairments of ROU assets of $12.1 million for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, reducing the carrying value of the ROU assets to an estimated combined fair value of $2.4 million. The fair value of these assets was estimated utilizing inputs from market comparables in order to estimate future cash flows expected from sublease income over the remaining lease terms. Future changes in the estimated amount or timing of sublease arrangements could result in further impairment charges.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company also incurred $0.7 million and $2.2 million, respectively, of other charges, primarily related to the realignment of the Company’s operating segments, as further described in Note 12, Segment Information

Restructuring Reserve – Employee Terminations

The Company’s employee terminations liability is included in accrued liabilities in the Company’s Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Changes in the accrual for employee terminations during the six months ended June 30, 2020, were as follows:

	December 31, 2019		Restructuring Charges		Reversals			Cash Paid			June 30, 2020

Note 7. Commitments and Contingencies

Litigation

From time to time, the Company’s customers and others file voluntary petitions for reorganization under United States bankruptcy laws. In such cases, certain pre-petition payments received by the Company from these parties could be considered preference items and subject to return. In addition, the Company may be party to certain litigation arising in the ordinary course of business. Management believes that the final resolution of these preference items and litigation will not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

Multiemployer Pension Plans Obligation

On April 13, 2020, LSC Communications, Inc. (“LSC”) announced that it, along with most of its U.S. subsidiaries, voluntarily filed for business reorganization under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code (“LSC Chapter 11 Filing”). LSC and the Company separated from R. R. Donnelley & Sons Company (“RRD”) in a tax-free distribution to shareholders effective October 1, 2016 (the “Separation”). In the second quarter of 2020, the Company became aware that, subsequent to the LSC Chapter 11 Filing, LSC failed to make certain required monthly and quarterly withdrawal liability payments to multiemployer pension plans from which RRD had withdrawn prior to the Separation. Responsibility for the pre-Separation withdrawal liability obligations, resulting in such monthly and quarterly payment obligations (the “MEPP Liabilities”), had been assigned to LSC pursuant to the September 14, 2016 Separation and Distribution Agreement among the Company, RRD and LSC (the “Separation Agreement”), however, the Company and RRD remained jointly and severally liable for the MEPP Liabilities pursuant to laws and regulations governing multiemployer pension plans. The Company believes the total undiscounted MEPP Liabilities for which LSC is responsible are approximately $103 million (or approximately $57 million on a discounted basis, assuming a blended discount rate of approximately 10%) and are payable over approximately a 15-year period (through 2034), with annual payments ranging from $1.6 million to $8.5 million.   

On July 24, 2020, the Company and RRD signed an agreement agreeing to submit to mediation and, if required, arbitration to determine the final liability allocation between the Company and RRD with respect to the MEPP Liabilities. DFIN and RRD also agreed to share all required monthly and quarterly withdrawal liability payment obligations that become due during the mediation/arbitration period, with an adjustment and repayment to be made for any such payments according to the final allocation.

The Company is required to record a liability when it is probable that a loss has been incurred and the amount can be reasonably estimated. As of June 30, 2020, the Company recorded a contingent liability of $10.2 million for its potential payments in respect of the MEPP Liabilities, representing the Company’s low end of the range of potential outcomes. The Company is not able to reasonably estimate the maximum potential loss due to the uncertainty related to the outcome of the final allocation of the MEPP Liabilities between the Company and RRD. The Company also recorded an additional $2.1 million for the Company’s estimated share of obligations until a final allocation is determined. The expense associated with this liability has been recorded in SG&A expense within the Corporate segment in the Company’s Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020.

There can be no assurance that the Company’s actual future liabilities relating to the MEPP Liabilities will not differ materially from the contingency amount recorded during the second quarter of 2020. The Company’s MEPP Liabilities could also be affected by the financial stability of other employers participating in such plans and decisions by those employers to withdraw from such plans in the future.

Total debt	$	350.7		$	296.0
Less: current portion (a)		0.5			—
Total long-term debt	$	350.2		$	296.0

(a) On July 2, 2020, the Company purchased and retired $0.5 million (notional amount) of the Notes at an average price of 98.75.

Maturities—At June 30, 2020, the Company’s long-term debt was comprised of the 8.25% senior unsecured notes due October 15, 2024 (“Notes”) and borrowings under the Revolving Facility, as defined below.

Fair Value—The fair value of the Notes, which was determined using the market approach based upon interest rates available to the Company for borrowings with similar terms and maturities, was determined to be Level 2 under the fair value hierarchy. The fair value of the Company’s Notes was $230.3 million and $308.4 million at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively.

8.25% Senior Notes Due 2024—In the first quarter of 2020, the Company purchased and retired $66.5 million (notional amount) of the Notes at an average price of 95.25 and recognized a pre-tax gain on the extinguishment of debt of $2.3 million, which was net of unamortized debt issuance costs, and is recorded within interest expense, net in the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

The Company’s Notes, with interest payable semi-annually on April 15 and October 15, were issued pursuant to an indenture where certain wholly-owned domestic subsidiaries of the Company guarantee the Notes (the “Guarantors”). The Notes are jointly and severally guaranteed, on an unsecured basis, by the Guarantors, which are comprised of each of the Company’s existing and future direct and indirect wholly-owned U.S. subsidiaries that guarantee the Company’s obligations under the Credit Facilities. The Notes are not guaranteed by the Company’s foreign subsidiaries or unrestricted subsidiaries. The Notes and the related guarantees will be the Company and the Guarantors’, respective, senior unsecured obligations and rank equally in right of payment to all present and future senior debt, including the obligations under the Company’s Credit Facilities, senior in right of payment to all present and future subordinated debt, and effectively subordinated in right of payment to any of the Company and the Guarantors’ secured debt, to the extent of the value of the assets securing such debt. The indenture governing the Notes contains certain covenants applicable to the Company and its restricted subsidiaries, including limitations on: (1) liens; (2) indebtedness; (3) mergers, consolidations and acquisitions; (4) sales, transfers and other dispositions of assets; (5) loans and other investments; (6) dividends and other distributions, stock repurchases and redemptions and other restricted payments; (7) restrictions affecting subsidiaries; (8) transactions with affiliates; and (9) designations of unrestricted subsidiaries. Each of these covenants is subject to important exceptions and qualifications.

Credit Agreement—On September 30, 2016, the Company entered into a Credit Agreement, as amended (“the Credit Agreement”) by and among the Company, the lenders party thereto from time to time and JP Morgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent. The Credit Agreement provides for a $350.0 million senior secured term loan B facility (the “Term Loan Credit Facility”) and a $300.0 million senior secured revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Facility”, and, together with the Term Loan Credit Facility, the “Credit Facilities”). The Credit Agreement contains a number of covenants, including a minimum Interest Coverage Ratio and a maximum Leverage Ratio, as defined in and calculated pursuant to the Credit Agreement, that, in part, restrict the Company’s ability to incur additional indebtedness, create liens, engage in mergers and consolidations, make restricted payments and dispose of certain assets. The Credit Agreement generally allows annual dividend payments of up to $20.0 million in the aggregate. As of December 31, 2019, the Company paid off its Term Loan Credit Facility.

Note 9. Earnings per Share

Basic earnings (loss) per share is calculated by dividing net earnings (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. In computing diluted earnings per share, basic earnings per share is adjusted for the assumed issuance of all potentially dilutive share-based awards, including stock options, restricted stock units, performance share units and restricted stock.

The reconciliation of the numerator and denominator of the basic and diluted earnings per share calculation and the anti-dilutive share-based awards for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 were as follows:

	Three Months Ended June 30,					Six Months Ended June 30,

Common Stock Repurchase—On February 4, 2020, the Board authorized a stock repurchase program, under which the Company is authorized to repurchase up to $25.0 million of its outstanding common stock from time to time in one or more transactions on the open market or in privately negotiated purchases in accordance with all applicable securities laws and regulations and all repurchases in the open market will be made in compliance with Rule 10b-18 under the Exchange Act. The timing and amount of any shares repurchased will be determined by the Company based on its evaluation of market conditions and other factors. Repurchases may also be made under a Rule 10b5-1 plan, which would permit shares to be repurchased when the Company might otherwise be precluded from doing so under insider trading laws. The stock repurchase program will be effective through December 31, 2021, however, it may be suspended or discontinued at any time.

During the first quarter of 2020, the Company repurchased 615,896 shares in open market transactions for $3.8 million at an average price of $6.19 per share. During the second quarter of 2020, the Company did not repurchase any shares. As of June 30, 2020, the remaining authorized amount under the current authorization was approximately $21.2 million.

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

As used in this management’s discussion and analysis, unless otherwise specified or the context otherwise requires, the “Company,” “DFIN,” “we,” “our,” and “us” refer to Donnelley Financial Solutions, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries. This discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying notes as well as the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2019.

Company Overview

DFIN is a leading global risk and compliance solutions company. The Company provides regulatory filing and deal solutions via its software technology-enabled services and print and distribution solutions to public and private companies, mutual funds and other regulated investment firms, to serve its clients’ regulatory and compliance needs. DFIN helps its clients comply with applicable regulations where and how they want to work in a digital world, providing numerous solutions tailored to each client’s precise needs. The prevailing trend is toward clients choosing to utilize the Company’s software solutions, in conjunction with its tech-enabled services, to meet their document and filing needs, while at the same time shifting away from physical print and distribution of documents, except for cases where it is still regulatorily required or requested by shareholders.

For corporate clients within its capital markets offerings, the Company offers solutions that allow U.S. public companies to comply with applicable U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) regulations including filing agent services, digital document creation and online content management tools that support their corporate financial transactions and regulatory reporting; solutions to facilitate clients’ communications with their shareholders; and virtual data rooms and other deal management solutions. For the investment companies, including mutual fund and alternative investment companies, the Company provides solutions for creating and filing high-quality regulatory documents as well as solutions for investors designed to improve the speed and accuracy of their access to investment information. The Company serves its clients’ regulatory and compliance needs throughout their respective life cycles.

Technological advancements, regulatory changes, and evolving workflow preferences, have led to the Company’s clients managing more of the financial disclosure process themselves, changing the marketplace for the Company’s services and products. DFIN’s strategy in its Software Solutions segments (CM-SS and IC-SS, as defined below) aligns with the changing marketplace by focusing the Company’s investments and resources in its advanced software solutions, primarily ActiveDisclosure, FundSuiteArc and Venue® Virtual Data Room (“Venue”), while making targeted investments, such as the Company’s acquisition of eBrevia to further broaden its solution set. In its Compliance & Communications Management segments (CM-CCM and IC-CCM, as defined below), the Company’s strategy focuses on maintaining its market-leading position by offering a high-touch, service-oriented experience, using its unique combination of tech-enabled services and print and distribution capabilities.

Market Volatility/Cyclicality

The Company’s Capital Markets segments (CM-SS and CM-CCM), in particular, are subject to market volatility in the United States and world economy, as the success of the transactional and Venue offerings is highly dependent on the global market for initial public offerings (“IPOs”), secondary offerings, mergers and acquisitions (“M&A”), public and private debt offerings, leveraged buyouts, spinouts and other transactions. A variety of factors impact the global markets for transactions, including economic activity levels, market volatility, the regulatory and political environment, civil unrest and global pandemics, amongst others. The global transactional markets have been and continue to be disrupted due to the COVID-19 pandemic and its impacts to the overall economy and market volatility. Due to the significant net sales and profitability derived from transactional and Venue offerings, market volatility can lead to uneven financial performance when comparing to previous periods. The Company mitigates a portion of this volatility through its compliance offerings, supporting the quarterly and annual public company reporting processes through its filing services and ActiveDisclosure, as well as its investment companies regulatory and shareholder communications offerings, including FundSuiteArc.

27

Services and Products

The Company separately reports its net sales and related cost of sales for its software solutions, tech-enabled services and print and distribution offerings. The Company’s software solutions consist of Venue, ActiveDisclosure, eBrevia, FundSuiteArc, and others. The Company’s tech-enabled services offerings consist of document composition, compliance-related SEC’s Electronic Data Gathering, Analysis, and Retrieval (“EDGAR”) filing services and transaction solutions. The Company’s print and distribution offerings primarily consist of conventional and digital printed products and the related shipping.

Regulatory Developments

The SEC is adopting new as well as amending existing rules and forms to modernize the reporting and disclosure of information by registered investment companies. These changes are driving significant regulatory changes which impact the Company’s customers within its Investment Companies business. As further disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report, on October 13, 2016, the SEC adopted a new N-PORT filing requirement, which requires certain registered investment companies to report information about their portfolio in XML, a structured data format, on a monthly basis, replacing what was previously a quarterly filing requirement. This rule also includes an annual N-CEN filing in XML, replacing a semi-annual filing requirement. The first N-PORT filing deadlines began in April 2019 for larger funds with over $1 billion in assets and, beginning in April 2020, smaller funds began filing N-PORT on a quarterly basis. The Company’s ArcFiling software solution supports both filings.

On June 5, 2018, the SEC adopted Rule 30e-3 which provides certain registered investment companies with an option to electronically deliver shareholder reports and other materials rather than providing such reports in paper. Investors who prefer to receive reports in paper will continue to receive them in that format. While Rule 30e-3 was effective January 1, 2019, default electronic distribution pursuant to the rule will begin on January 1, 2021 due to a 24-month transition period, during which registered investment companies must notify investors of the upcoming change in transmission format of shareholder reports. The Company expects a decline in the volume of printed annual and semi-annual shareholder reports in 2021 and beyond as a result of Rule 30e-3.

On June 28, 2018, the SEC announced that it was adopting amendments to require the use of the Inline XBRL (“iXBRL”) format for the submission of operating company financial statement information and fund risk/return summary information to improve the data’s usefulness, timeliness and quality, benefiting investors, other market participants and other data users and decreasing, over time, the cost of preparing data for submission to the SEC. On September 17, 2020, large fund groups, defined as fund groups with net assets of $1 billion or more as of the end of their most recent fiscal year, will become subject to the iXBRL requirements. The Company expects an increase in revenue associated with eXtensible Business Reporting Language (“XBRL”) compliance services for the IC-SS segment (as defined below).

On March 11, 2020, the SEC announced that it has adopted a new rule 498A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) and related regulatory amendments permitting variable annuity and variable life insurance contracts to use a more concise summary prospectus to provide disclosures to investors. More detailed information about the variable annuity or variable life insurance contract will be available online, and an investor can now choose to have that information delivered on paper. The new rule and related form amendments became effective on July 1, 2020 with compliance required by January 1, 2022. The Company expects the majority of its insurance customers will adopt the rule by early 2021. As a result, the Company expects a decline in printed prospectus volume in 2021 and beyond. Based on the requirements of the rule, the Company is also expecting an increase in revenue from the ArcPro software solution and related regulatory filings.

Segments

In the first quarter of 2020, management realigned the Company’s operating segments to reflect changes in the manner in which the chief operating decision maker assesses information for decision-making purposes. The Company’s four operating and reportable segments are: Capital Markets – Software Solutions (“CM-SS”), Capital Markets – Compliance and Communications Management (“CM-CCM”), Investment Companies – Software Solutions (“IC-SS”), and Investment Companies – Compliance and Communications Management (“IC-CCM”). Corporate is not an operating segment and consists primarily of unallocated selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) activities and associated expenses, as further described below.

28

All prior year amounts related to segments have been reclassified to conform to the Company’s current reporting structure. There is no impact on the Company’s previously reported consolidated statements of operations, statements of comprehensive income, balance sheets, statements of cash flows or statements of changes in stockholders’ equity as a result of the new segmentation. For the Company’s financial results and the presentation of certain other financial information by segment, see Note 12, Segment Information, to the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Capital Markets

The Company provides software solutions, technology-enabled services and print and distribution solutions to public and private companies for deal solutions and compliance to companies that are or preparing to become subject to the filing and reporting requirements of the Securities Act and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Capital markets’ clients leverage the Company’s software offerings, proprietary technology, deep industry expertise and experience to successfully navigate the SEC’s specified file formats when submitting compliance documents through the EDGAR system for their transactional and ongoing compliance needs. The Company assists its capital markets clients throughout the course of public and private business transactions; M&A, IPOs, debt offerings and other similar transactions. In addition, the Company provides clients with compliance solutions to prepare their ongoing required Exchange Act filings that are compatible with the SEC’s EDGAR system, most notably Form 10-K, Form 10-Q, Form 8-K and Proxy Form DEF 14A. The Company’s operating segments associated with its capital markets services and products offerings are as follows:

Capital Markets – Software Solutions—The Company provides software solutions to its capital markets clients through its CM-SS segment. The Company’s Venue solution is a highly secure data room platform that allows clients to share confidential information in real-time throughout the transaction lifecycle. Clients can maintain control over sensitive data when conducting due diligence for M&A, raising capital for an IPO or developing a document repository. Specifically, companies have used Venue to securely organize, manage, distribute and track corporate governance, financing, legal and other documents in an online workspace accessible to internal and outside advisors. Via integration with the Company’s eBrevia solution, Venue can use artificial intelligence to analyze documents to help clients better understand their content and make informed decisions.

The Company’s cloud-based ActiveDisclosure platform provides clients with end-to-end solutions to collaborate, tag, validate and file with the SEC efficiently.

Executive Overview

Second Quarter Overview

Net sales decreased by $4.9 million, or 1.9%, to $254.0 million from $258.9 million for the second quarter of 2020 compared to the same period in the prior year, including a $0.6 million, or 0.2%, decrease due to changes in foreign exchange rates. Net sales decreased primarily due to a decline in print as a result of lower capital markets transactions and compliance and commercial print volumes partially offset by higher tech-enabled services for capital markets transactions and higher mutual fund transactional print volumes.

Income from operations for the second quarter of 2020 decreased by $29.5 million, or 88.3%, to $3.9 million from $33.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019, primarily due to higher restructuring, impairment and other charges along with increased SG&A expense driven by the $12.3 million accrual for the LSC multiemployer pension plans obligation, as further disclosed in Note 7, Commitments and Contingencies, to the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and discussed below, partially offset by the impact from cost control initiatives.

Year-to-Date Overview

Net sales decreased by $13.8 million, or 2.8%, to $474.7 million from $488.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020 compared to the same period in the prior year, including a $1.1 million, or 0.2%, decrease due to changes in foreign exchange rates. Net sales decreased primarily due to lower mutual fund compliance volume, a decline in print as a result of lower capital markets transactional and compliance print volumes and a decrease in Venue dataroom volumes, partially offset by higher tech-enabled services for capital markets transactions and higher ActiveDisclosure and FundSuiteArc volumes.

Income from operations for the six months ended June 30, 2020 decreased by $24.2 million, or 60.5%, to $15.8 million from $40.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019, primarily due to higher restructuring, impairment and other charges, increased SG&A expense driven by the LSC multiemployer pension plans obligation and the impact of the lower sales volumes, partially offset by the impact from cost control initiatives.

COVID-19

In December 2019, a novel strain of coronavirus, currently known as COVID-19 (“COVID-19”), was identified in China and has since extensively impacted the global health and economic environment. On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization (“WHO”) characterized COVID-19 as a pandemic. Although COVID-19 has adversely impacted the Company’s financial condition, results of operations and overall financial performance, the extent of that impact is currently uncertain and depends on factors including the impact on the Company’s customers, employees and vendors.

30

The COVID-19 pandemic may have a material adverse impact on the Company’s customers’ financial results, which may force the Company’s clients to alter their plans for purchasing the Company’s services and products. In addition, the global markets have been and continue to be disrupted due to the COVID-19 pandemic, which has negatively impacted the Company’s transactional offerings and that negative impact is expected to continue. Some of this volatility is mitigated through the Company’s compliance offerings, supporting the quarterly and annual public company reporting processes, as well as its investment companies regulatory and shareholder communications offerings. If the Company’s customers reduce, defer or cancel their spending with DFIN, it would materially adversely impact the Company’s business, results of operations and overall financial performance.

Some of the Company’s operations also have been affected by a range of external factors related to the COVID-19 pandemic that are not within the Company’s control. For example, many jurisdictions have imposed a wide range of restrictions on the physical movement of the Company’s employees and vendors to limit the spread of COVID-19. If the COVID-19 pandemic has a substantial impact on the Company’s or vendors’ employee attendance or productivity, the Company’s operations are expected to be adversely affected, and in turn the Company’s results of operations and overall financial performance would be harmed. Furthermore, the Company’s insurance costs may increase.

The Company has taken numerous steps, and will continue to take further actions, in its response to the COVID-19 pandemic. The Company has implemented business continuity plans and has instructed all employees that can work from home to do so, has implemented travel restrictions and has conducted virtual customer and employee meetings. These decisions may delay or reduce sales and harm productivity and collaboration. The Company has also incurred $1.9 million of incremental expenses, net of sales surcharges, as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic during the six months ended June 30, 2020. Incremental expenses incurred included incremental vendor costs, premium wages paid to certain employees as well as costs to clean and disinfect the Company’s facilities more frequently. As a result of these incremental expenses, the Company invoiced certain customers COVID-19-related sales surcharges to recoup some of the expenses. The Company expects to continue to incur such costs in future periods, however, the impact of such costs on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations and overall financial performance cannot be predicted at this time. The Company is also working closely with its clients to support them as they implement their own contingency plans, helping them access the Company’s services and products and continue to meet their regulatory requirements.

The Company believes that implementing cost reduction efforts will help mitigate the impact that reduced revenues will have on 2020 income from operations. The Company has reduced expenses and may take further actions that alter its business operations as the situation evolves. The ultimate impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and the effects on the Company’s business, financial condition, liquidity, and financial results cannot be predicted at this time.

Multiemployer Pension Plans Obligation

On April 13, 2020, LSC Communications, Inc. (“LSC”) announced that it, along with most of its U.S. subsidiaries, voluntarily filed for business reorganization under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code (“LSC Chapter 11 Filing”). LSC and the Company separated from R. R. Donnelley & Sons Company (“RRD”) in a tax-free distribution to shareholders effective October 1, 2016 (the “Separation”). In the second quarter of 2020, the Company became aware that, subsequent to the LSC Chapter 11 Filing, LSC failed to make certain required monthly and quarterly withdrawal liability payments to multiemployer pension plans from which RRD had withdrawn prior to the Separation. Responsibility for the pre-Separation withdrawal liability obligations, resulting in such monthly and quarterly payment obligations (the “MEPP Liabilities”), had been assigned to LSC pursuant to the September 14, 2016 Separation and Distribution Agreement among the Company, RRD and LSC (the “Separation Agreement”), however, the Company and RRD remained jointly and severally liable for the MEPP Liabilities pursuant to laws and regulations governing multiemployer pension plans. The Company believes the total undiscounted MEPP Liabilities for which LSC is responsible are approximately $103 million (or approximately $57 million on a discounted basis, assuming a blended discount rate of approximately 10%) and are payable over approximately a 15-year period (through 2034), with annual payments ranging from $1.6 million to $8.5 million.

On July 24, 2020, the Company and RRD signed an agreement agreeing to submit to mediation and, if required, arbitration to determine the final liability allocation between the Company and RRD with respect to the MEPP Liabilities. DFIN and RRD also agreed to share all required monthly and quarterly withdrawal liability payment obligations that become due during the mediation/arbitration period, with an adjustment and repayment to be made for any such payments according to the final allocation.

31

The Company is required to record a liability when it is probable that a loss has been incurred and the amount can be reasonably estimated. As of June 30, 2020, the Company recorded a contingent liability of $10.2 million for its potential payments in respect of the MEPP Liabilities, representing the Company’s low end of the range of potential outcomes. The Company is not able to reasonably estimate the maximum potential loss due to the uncertainty related to the outcome of the final allocation of the MEPP Liabilities between the Company and RRD. The Company also recorded an additional $2.1 million for the Company’s estimated share of obligations until a final allocation is determined. The expense associated with this liability has been recorded in SG&A expense within the Corporate segment in the Company’s Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020.

There can be no assurance that the Company’s actual future liabilities relating to the MEPP Liabilities will not differ materially from the contingency amount recorded during the second quarter of 2020. The Company’s MEPP Liabilities could also be affected by the financial stability of other employers participating in such plans and decisions by those employers to withdraw from such plans in the future.

Financial Review

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) requires the extensive use of management’s estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as well as disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from these estimates. The Company’s significant accounting policies and critical estimates are disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, as filed with the SEC on February 26, 2020 (the “Annual Report”).

In the financial review that follows, the Company discusses its unaudited condensed consolidated results of operations, cash flows and certain other information. This discussion should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and the related notes.

Print and distribution cost of sales decreased $7.1 million, or 9.7%, to $66.3 million, for the three months ended June 30, 2020 versus the three months ended June 30, 2019, primarily due to the impact of cost control initiatives and lower volume. As a percentage of print and distribution net sales, print and distribution cost of sales decreased 2.2% primarily as a result of cost control initiatives.

SG&A expense increased $14.9 million, or 25.7%, to $72.8 million, for the three months ended June 30, 2020 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2019, primarily due to the $12.3 million accrual for the LSC multiemployer pension plans obligation. As a percentage of net sales, SG&A expenses increased from 22.4% for the three months ended June 30, 2019 to 28.7% for the three months ended June 30, 2020 primarily due to the accrual for the LSC multiemployer pension plans obligation.

Depreciation and amortization increased $2.7 million, or 22.5%, to $14.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2019, primarily due to the acceleration of depreciation as the result of a change in the estimated useful lives of certain assets. Depreciation and amortization included $3.3 million and $3.6 million of amortization of other intangible assets related to customer relationships and a tradename for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

Restructuring, impairment and other charges, net for the three months ended June 30, 2020, were $25.1 million, as compared to $3.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019.

33

Interest expense, net decreased $2.8 million to $6.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020 versus the same period for 2019 due to the payoff of the Company’s term loan credit facility in 2019 as well as the Company’s purchase and retirement of $66.5 million (notional amount) of the Notes (as defined below) in the first quarter of 2020, partially replaced by the Revolving Facility (as defined below) that carries a lower interest rate.

Income from operations for the six months ended June 30, 2020 decreased $24.2 million, or 60.5%, to $15.8 million versus the six months ended June 30, 2019, primarily due to higher restructuring, impairment and other charges, the increase in SG&A as noted above and the impact of lower volumes, partially offset by cost control initiatives.

Interest expense, net decreased $7.1 million to $10.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020 versus the same period in 2019, primarily due to the payoff of the Company’s term loan credit facility in 2019 and the $2.3 million gain on debt extinguishment during six months ended June 30, 2020, as further described in Note 8, Debt, to the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, partially replaced by the Revolving Facility (as defined below) that carries a lower interest rate.

Non-GAAP Measures

The Company believes that certain Non-GAAP measures, such as Non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA (“Adjusted EBITDA”), provide useful information about the Company’s operating results and enhance the overall ability to assess the Company’s financial performance. The Company uses these measures, together with other measures of performance under GAAP, to compare the relative performance of operations in planning, budgeting and reviewing the performance of its business. Adjusted EBITDA allows investors to make a more meaningful comparison between the Company’s core business operating results over different periods of time. The Company believes that Adjusted EBITDA, when viewed with the Company’s results under GAAP and the accompanying reconciliations, provides useful information about the Company’s business without regard to potential distortions. By eliminating potential differences in results of operations between periods caused by factors such as depreciation and amortization methods, historic cost and age of assets, restructuring, impairment and other charges, acquisition-related expenses, gain or loss on certain equity investments and asset sales as well as other items, as described below, the Company believes that Adjusted EBITDA can provide a useful additional basis for comparing the current performance of the underlying operations being evaluated.

Adjusted EBITDA is not presented in accordance with GAAP and has important limitations as an analytical tool. These measures should not be considered as a substitute for analysis of the Company’s results as reported under GAAP. In addition, these measures are defined differently by different companies and, accordingly, such measures may not be comparable to similarly-titled measures of other companies.

In addition to the factors listed above, the following items are excluded from Adjusted EBITDA:

• Share-based compensation expense. Although share-based compensation is a key incentive offered to certain of the Company’s employees, business performance is evaluated excluding share-based compensation expenses. Depending upon the size, timing and the terms of grants, non-cash compensation expense may vary but will recur in future periods.

• COVID-19 related sales surcharges and expenses, net. Incremental expenses incurred and sales surcharges recognized as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. Incremental expenses included incremental vendor costs, premium wages paid to certain employees and additional costs to clean and disinfect the Company’s facilities more frequently. As a result of these incremental expenses, the Company invoiced certain customers COVID-19 related surcharges.

• Investor-related expenses. Expenses incurred related to non-routine investor matters, which include third-party advisory and consulting fees and legal fees.

• Spin-off related transaction expenses. The Company has incurred expenses related to the Separation to operate as a standalone publicly traded company. These expenses included third-party consulting fees, information technology expenses, employee retention payments, legal fees and other costs related to the Separation, including system implementation expenses related to transitioning from transition service agreements with RRD and LSC. Management does not believe that these expenses are reflective of ongoing operating results.

A reconciliation of GAAP net earnings to Adjusted EBITDA for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 for these adjustments is presented in the following table:

Liquidity and Capital Resources  

The Company believes it has sufficient liquidity to support its ongoing operations and to invest in future growth to create value for its shareholders. Cash on hand, operating cash flows and the Company’s $300.0 million senior secured revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Facility”) are the primary sources of liquidity and are expected to be used for, among other things, payment of interest and principal on the Company’s debt obligations, capital expenditures necessary to support productivity improvement and growth, acquisitions and completion of restructuring programs.

The Company maintains cash pooling structures that enable participating international locations to draw on the pools’ cash resources to meet local liquidity needs. Foreign cash balances may be loaned from certain cash pools to U.S. operating entities on a temporary basis in order to reduce the Company’s short-term borrowing costs or for other purposes. The Company has the ability to repatriate any previously taxed foreign cash associated with the foreign earnings subject to the U.S. parent with minimal tax consequences. The Company maintains its assertion of indefinite reinvestment on all foreign earnings and other outside basis differences to indicate that the Company remains indefinitely reinvested in operations outside of the U.S. with the exception of the previously taxed foreign cash already subject to U.S. tax. The Company repatriated excess cash at its foreign subsidiaries to the U.S. during the year ended December 31, 2019 and does not plan to make cash repatriations during 2020.

Cash and cash equivalents of $37.4 million at June 30, 2020 included $32.7 million in the U.S. and $4.7 million at international locations.

The following describes the Company’s cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019.

	Six Months Ended June 30,
	2020			2019

Effect of exchange rate on cash and cash equivalents		(1.2	)		2.2
Net increase (decrease) in cash and cash equivalents	$	20.2		$	(37.8	)

Cash Flows Used in Operating Activities

Operating cash inflows are largely attributable to sales of the Company’s services and products as well as recurring expenditures for labor, rent, raw materials and other operating activities.

Net cash used in operating activities was $23.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020 compared to $65.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019. The decrease in cash used in operating activities of $41.4 million was primarily due to a decrease in income taxes paid and timing of supplier payments. Cash paid for income taxes, net of refunds, decreased by $16.4 million to $1.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020, from $17.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019 due primarily to deferrals of 2020 tax payments provided under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act and increased 2019 tax payments on the gain from the 2018 sale of the Language Solution business. Accounts payable and accrued liabilities and other increased operating cash flows by $20.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020, as compared to a $14.3 million decrease in operating cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2019.

Cash Flows Used in Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities was $4.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020, and primarily consisted of capital expenditures of $15.7 million, mostly driven by investment in software development, partially offset by $12.8 million of proceeds from the sale of one of the Company’s investments in equity securities. The Company expects that capital expenditures for 2020 will be approximately $30 million.

Net cash used in investing activities was $28.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019, and primarily consisted of capital expenditures of $26.2 million, mostly driven by an investment in digital printers and investments in software development.

8.25% Senior Notes Due 2024— On September 30, 2016, DFIN (the “Parent”) issued $300.0 million of 8.25% senior unsecured notes due October 15, 2024 (the “Notes”). The Company’s Notes, with interest payable semi-annually on April 15 and October 15, were issued pursuant to an indenture (the “Indenture”) where certain wholly-owned domestic subsidiaries of the Company guarantee the Notes (the “Guarantors”). In the first quarter of 2020, the Company purchased and retired $66.5 million (notional amount) of the Notes at an average price of 95.25 and recognized a pre-tax gain on the extinguishment of debt of $2.3 million, which was net of unamortized debt issuance costs, and is recorded within interest expense, net in the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

42

The Notes are fully and unconditionally as well as jointly and severally guaranteed, on an unsecured basis, by the Guarantors, which are comprised of each of the Company’s existing and future direct and indirect wholly-owned U.S. subsidiaries that guarantee the Company’s obligations under the Credit Facilities, including Donnelley Financial, LLC and DFS International Holding, Inc. The Notes are not guaranteed by the Company’s foreign subsidiaries or unrestricted subsidiaries (“Nonguarantors”). The Indenture governing the Notes contains certain covenants applicable to the Company and its restricted subsidiaries, including limitations on: (1) liens; (2) indebtedness; (3) mergers, consolidations and acquisitions; (4) sales, transfers and other dispositions of assets; (5) loans and other investments; (6) dividends and other distributions, stock repurchases and redemptions and other restricted payments; (7) restrictions affecting subsidiaries; (8) transactions with affiliates; and (9) designations of unrestricted subsidiaries. Each of these covenants is subject to important exceptions and qualifications.

The Notes and the related guarantees are the Company and the Guarantors’, respective, senior unsecured obligations and rank equally in right of payment to all present and future senior debt, including the obligations under the Company’s Credit Facilities, senior in right of payment to all present and future subordinated debt, and effectively subordinated in right of payment to any of the Company and the Guarantors’ secured debt, to the extent of the value of the assets securing such debt.

The guarantee of the Notes by a subsidiary guarantor will be automatically released under certain situations, including upon the sale or disposition of such subsidiary guarantor to a person that is not DFIN or a subsidiary guarantor of the notes, the liquidation or dissolution of such subsidiary guarantor, and if such subsidiary guarantor is released from its guarantee obligations under the Company’s Credit Facilities.

The following summarized financial information of both the Parent and the Guarantors is presented on a combined basis; intercompany balances and transactions between the Parent and the Guarantors have been eliminated and the summarized financial information does not reflect investments of the Parent or the Guarantors in Nonguarantors.

As of June 30, 2020, outstanding borrowings under the Revolving Facility totaled $120.0 million. The maturity date of the Revolving Facility is December 18, 2023. Based on the Company’s results of operations for the twelve months ended June 30, 2020 and existing debt, the Company would have had the ability to utilize an incremental $180.0 million of the $300.0 million Revolving Facility and not have been in violation of the terms of the agreement.

The current availability under the Revolving Facility and net available liquidity as of June 30, 2020 is shown in the table below:

	June 30, 2020
Availability	(in millions)
Revolving Facility	$	300.0
Availability reduction from covenants		—
	$	300.0
Usage
Borrowings under the Revolving Facility		120.0
Impact on availability related to outstanding letters of credit		—
	$	120.0
Current availability	$	180.0
Cash		37.4
Net Available Liquidity	$	217.4

The Company was in compliance with its debt covenants as of June 30, 2020, and expects to remain in compliance based on management’s estimates of operating and financial results for 2020 and the foreseeable future. However, declines in market and economic conditions or demand for certain of the Company’s services and products could impact the Company’s ability to remain in compliance with its debt covenants in future periods.

The failure of a financial institution supporting the Revolving Facility would reduce the size of the Company’s committed facility unless a replacement institution was added. As of June 30, 2020, the Revolving Facility is supported by sixteen U.S. and international financial institutions. As of June 30, 2020, the Company had $3.6 million in outstanding letters of credit and bank guarantees, of which none reduced the availability under the Revolving Facility. As of June 30, 2020, the Company met all the conditions required to borrow under the Revolving Facility, and management expects the Company to continue to meet the applicable borrowing conditions.

Acquisitions

The Company’s acquisition of eBrevia closed on December 18, 2018. During the year ended December 31, 2019, the Company paid $4.5 million related to the acquisition of eBrevia. An additional $1.9 million of the purchase price, which was held in the event of potential claims, was paid during the three months ended June 30, 2020 pursuant to the terms of the acquisition agreement.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The Company has updated its accounting policies related to valuation reserves associated with accounts receivable in conjunction with the adoption of ASU 2016-13, as further described in Note 1, Overview, Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies, to the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. Except for the adoption of ASU 2016-13, there were no other changes to critical accounting policies and estimates from those disclosed in “Part II. Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates” of the Annual Report.

Goodwill

The Company performs its goodwill impairment tests annually as of October 31 or more frequently if an event occurs or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying amount. The Company also performs an interim review for indicators of impairment each quarter to assess whether an interim impairment review is required for any reporting unit. As part of its interim reviews, management analyzed potential changes in the value of individual reporting units based on each reporting unit’s operating results for the period compared to expected results used in the previous impairment test. In addition, management considers how other key assumptions, including discount rates and expected long-term growth rates, used in the last annual impairment test, could be impacted by changes in market conditions and economic events. Based on the qualitative interim assessment in the second quarter of 2020, management concluded that as of June 30, 2020, no events or changes in circumstances indicated that it was more likely than not that the fair value for any reporting unit had declined below its carrying amount.

As discussed in Note 1, Overview, Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies to the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, during the first quarter of 2020, management realigned the Company’s operating segments. DFIN’s four operating and reportable segments are the same as its reporting units: CM-SS; CM-CCM; IC-SS; and IC-CCM (“Current Structure”). The Company previously had three reporting units: Capital Markets, Investment Markets and International (“Previous Structure”), that each had goodwill.

As a result of the new segmentation, a goodwill impairment analysis was completed for the Previous Structure during the first quarter of 2020, before the reallocation of goodwill to the Current Structure. Each of the reporting units under the Previous Structure were reviewed for impairment as of March 31, 2020 using a quantitative assessment, where the estimated fair value of each reporting unit was compared to its carrying amount, including goodwill. If the carrying amount (“book value”) of a reporting unit exceeds its estimated fair value, an impairment loss is generally recognized in an amount equal to that excess, limited to the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. As a result of the March 31, 2020 goodwill impairment analysis under the Previous Structure, the Company did not recognize any goodwill impairment as the estimated fair values of all reporting units exceeded their respective carrying amounts.

In addition to the impairment analysis under the Previous Structure, a goodwill impairment analysis was completed during the first quarter under the Current Structure. Goodwill was also reassigned within the Current Structure using a relative fair value approach.

Quantitative Assessment—The analysis performed during the first quarter of 2020 included estimating the fair value of each reporting unit using both the income and market approaches. The income approach requires management to estimate a number of factors for each reporting unit, including projected future operating results, economic projections, anticipating future cash flows, discount rates and the allocation of shared or corporate items. The market approach estimates fair value using comparable marketplace fair value data from within a comparable industry grouping. The Company weighted both the income and market approach equally to estimate the concluded fair value of each reporting unit.

The determination of fair value in the quantitative assessment requires the Company to make significant estimates and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions primarily include, but are not limited to: the selection of appropriate peer group companies; the discount rate; terminal growth rates; and forecasts of revenue; operating income; depreciation and amortization; restructuring charges and capital expenditures.

Goodwill Impairment Assumptions— Although the Company believes its estimates of fair value are reasonable, actual financial results could differ from those estimates due to the inherent uncertainty involved in making such estimates. Changes in assumptions concerning future financial results or other underlying assumptions could have a significant impact on either the fair value of the reporting units, the amount of goodwill impairment charge, or both.

One measure of the sensitivity of the amount of goodwill impairment charges to key assumptions is the amount by which each reporting unit “passed” (fair value exceeds carrying amount, a “cushion”) or “failed” (the carrying amount exceeds fair value) the quantitative assessment.

45

As a result of the March 31, 2020 goodwill impairment analysis under the Current Structure, the Company did not recognize any goodwill impairment as the estimated fair values of all reporting units exceeded their respective carrying amounts. CM-SS, CM-CCM and IC-SS all had fair values far in excess of book values; however, the IC-CCM reporting unit’s fair value exceeded its book value by approximately 3%. The small amount of cushion between book value and fair value of the IC-CCM reporting unit is primarily driven by the projected negative impact of regulatory developments for certain services and products. As of March 31, 2020 and June 30, 2020, goodwill allocated to the IC-CCM reporting unit was $40.6 million.

Generally, changes in estimates of expected future cash flows would have a similar effect on the estimated fair value of the reporting unit. That is, a 1.0% decrease in estimated annual future cash flows would decrease the estimated fair value of the reporting unit by approximately 1.0%. The estimated long-term net sales growth rate can have a significant impact on the estimated future cash flows, and therefore, the fair value of each reporting unit. Holding all other assumptions constant, a 1.0% decrease in the long-term net sales growth rate would not have resulted in an impairment loss for any of the Company’s reporting units. Of the other key assumptions that impact the estimated fair values, most reporting units have the greatest sensitivity to changes in the estimated discount rate. The discount rate for the IC-CCM reporting unit was 12.0%. Holding all other assumptions constant, a 1.0% increase in the estimated discount rate would have resulted in the fair value of the IC-CCM reporting unit approximating its book value. A 1.0% increase in the discount rate would not have resulted in an impairment for any of the other reporting units under the Current Structure.

The Company believes its estimates of future cash flows and discount rates are reasonable, but future changes in the underlying assumptions could occur due to the inherent uncertainty in making such estimates. Additionally, the COVID-19 pandemic has created significant uncertainty in the macroeconomic and business outlook. Further price deterioration, lower volumes, additional unfavorable regulatory developments or lower than expected profitability of software products still in development could have a significant impact on the fair values of the reporting units. Further declines in the Company’s operating results due to challenging economic conditions, an unfavorable industry or macroeconomic development or other adverse changes in market conditions could change one of the critical assumptions or estimates the Company uses to calculate the fair value of its reporting units which could result in a decrease in fair value and require the Company to record a goodwill impairment charge in future periods.

New Accounting Pronouncements and Pending Accounting Standards

Recently issued accounting standards and their estimated effect on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements are described in Note 1, Overview, Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies, to the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

CAUTIONARY STATEMENT

The Company has made forward-looking statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q within the meaning of the “safe harbor” provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 that are subject to risks and uncertainties. These statements are based on the beliefs and assumptions of the Company. Generally, forward-looking statements include information concerning possible or assumed future actions, events, or results of operations of the Company.

These statements may include words such as “anticipates,” “estimates,” “expects,” “projects,” “forecasts,” “intends,” “plans,” “continues,” “believes,” “may,” “will,” “goals” and variations of such words and similar expressions are intended to identify the Company’s forward-looking statements.

Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of performance. The following important factors, in addition to those discussed elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, could cause the Company’s actual results to differ materially from those indicated in any such forward-looking statements. These factors include, but are not limited to:

• the adverse impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic and other global public health epidemics on the Company’s business and operations, including demand for DFIN services and products, and the Company’s ability to effectively manage the impacts of the coronavirus on its business operations;

• the volatility of the global economy and financial markets, and its impact on transactional volume;

• failure to offer high quality customer support and services;

• the retention of existing, and continued attraction of additional clients;

• the growth of new technologies with which the Company may be able to adequately compete;

46

• the Company’s inability to maintain client referrals;

• the competitive market for the Company’s products and industry fragmentation affecting prices;

• the ability to gain client acceptance of the Company’s new products and technologies;

• delay in market acceptance of the Company’s services and products due to undetected errors or failures found in the Company’s services and products;

• failure to maintain the confidentiality, integrity and availability of the Company’s systems, software and solutions;

• failure to properly use and protect client and employee information and data;

• the effect of a material breach of security or other performance issues of any of Company’s or its vendors’ systems;

• factors that affect client demand, including changes in economic conditions, national or international regulations and clients’ budgetary constraints;

• the Company’s ability to access debt and the capital markets due to adverse credit market conditions;

• the effect of increasing costs of providing healthcare and other benefits to employees;

• changes in the availability or costs of key materials (such as ink and paper) or in prices received for the sale of by-products;

• failure to protect the Company’s proprietary technology;

• failure to successfully integrate acquired businesses;

• availability to maintain the Company’s brands and reputation;

• the retention of existing, and continued attraction of, key employees, including management;

• funding obligations arising from multi-employer pension plan obligations of the Company’s former affiliates;

• the effects of operating in international markets, including fluctuations in currency exchange rates; and

• the effect of economic and political conditions on a regional, national or international basis.

PART II — OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

For a discussion of certain litigation involving the Company, see Note 7, Commitments and Contingencies, to the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

There were no material changes during the three months ended June 30, 2020, to the risk factors identified in the Company’s Annual Report as well as in the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2020, as filed with the SEC on May 7, 2020, except as noted below.

The Company may become liable for funding obligations arising from multi-employer pension plan obligations of the Company’s former affiliates.

On April 13, 2020, LSC announced that it, along with most of its U.S. subsidiaries, voluntarily filed for business reorganization under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code. LSC and the Company separated from RRD in a tax-free distribution to shareholders of RRD effective October 1, 2016. In the second quarter of 2020, the Company became aware that, subsequent to the LSC Chapter 11 Filing, LSC failed to make certain required monthly and quarterly withdrawal liability payments to multiemployer pension plans from which RRD had withdrawn prior to the Separation. Responsibility for the pre-Separation withdrawal liability obligations, resulting in such monthly and quarterly payment obligations, had been assigned to LSC pursuant to the Separation Agreement, while RRD retained responsibility for certain other pre-Separation withdrawal liability assessments against RRD, however, the Company and RRD remain jointly and severally liable for the LSC MEPP Liabilities pursuant to laws and regulations governing multiemployer pension plans and the Company remains jointly and severally liable for the RRD MEPP Liabilities. If LSC and RRD fail to make required payments in respect of the LSC MEPP Liabilities or RRD fails to make required payments in respect of the RRD MEPP Liabilities, the Company may become obligated to make such payments, which payment obligations may negatively impact the Company’s cash flows and results of operations. In addition, the Company’s MEPP Liabilities could also be affected by the financial stability of other employers participating in such plans and decisions by those employers to withdraw from such plans in the future. See Note 7, Commitments and Contingencies, to the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for more information about these potential MEPP Liabilities.

Overview, Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies

Note 1. Overview, Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies

Description of Business

Donnelley Financial Solutions, Inc. and subsidiaries (“DFIN,” or the “Company”) is a leading global risk and compliance solutions company. The Company provides regulatory filing and deal solutions via its software technology-enabled services and print and distribution solutions to public and private companies, mutual funds and other regulated investment firms, to serve its clients’ regulatory and compliance needs. DFIN helps its clients comply with applicable regulations where and how they want to work in a digital world, providing numerous solutions tailored to each client’s precise needs. The prevailing trend is toward clients choosing to utilize the Company’s software solutions, in conjunction with its tech-enabled services, to meet their document and filing needs, while at the same time shifting away from physical print and distribution of documents, except for cases where it is still regulatorily required or requested by shareholders.

For corporate clients within its capital markets offerings, the Company offers solutions that allow U.S. public companies to comply with applicable U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) regulations including filing agent services, digital document creation and online content management tools that support their corporate financial transactions and regulatory reporting; solutions to facilitate clients’ communications with their shareholders; and virtual data rooms and other deal management solutions. For investment companies, including mutual fund and alternative investment companies, the Company provides solutions for creating and filing high-quality regulatory documents as well as solutions for investors designed to improve the speed and accuracy of their access to investment information. The Company serves its clients’ regulatory and compliance needs throughout their respective life cycles.

Services and Products

The Company separately reports its net sales and related cost of sales for its software solutions, tech-enabled services and print and distribution offerings. The Company’s software solutions consist of Venue® Virtual Data Room (“Venue”), ActiveDisclosure, eBrevia, FundSuiteArc, and others. The Company’s tech-enabled services offerings consist of document composition, compliance-related SEC’s Electronic Data Gathering, Analysis, and Retrieval (“EDGAR”) filing services and transaction solutions. The Company’s print and distribution offerings primarily consist of conventional and digital printed products and the related shipping.

Segments

In the first quarter of 2020, management realigned the Company’s operating segments to reflect changes in the manner in which the chief operating decision maker assesses information for decision-making purposes. The Company’s four operating and reportable segments are: Capital Markets – Software Solutions (“CM-SS”), Capital Markets – Compliance and Communications Management (“CM-CCM”), Investment Companies – Software Solutions (“IC-SS”), and Investment Companies – Compliance and Communications Management (“IC-CCM”). Corporate is not an operating segment and consists primarily of unallocated selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) activities and associated expenses. All prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the Company’s current reporting structure. See Note 12, Segment Information, for additional information.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of DFIN and have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and in accordance with the rules and regulations of the SEC. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. The financial data presented herein should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in the Company’s latest Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 filed with the SEC on February 26, 2020 (the “Annual Report”). In the opinion of management, the financial data presented includes all adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented. Results of interim periods should not be considered indicative of the results for the full year.

Certain previously reported amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current presentation, there was no impact on the Company’s previously reported consolidated statements of operations, statements of comprehensive income, balance sheets, statements of cash flows or statements of changes in stockholders’ equity.

Significant Accounting Policies

Use of Estimates—The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires the extensive use of management’s estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as well as disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from these estimates. The Company’s significant accounting policies and critical estimates are disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report.

Prepaid Expenses—As of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, prepaid expenses were $10.6 million and $9.6 million, respectively.

Inventory—The components of the Company’s inventories stated at the lower of cost or market, net of excess and obsolescence reserves for raw materials, at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 were as follows:  

	June 30, 2020		December 31, 2019
Raw materials and manufacturing supplies	$	4.2	$	3.9
Work in process		6.8		7.2
Total	$	11.0	$	11.1

Property, Plant and Equipment—The components of the Company’s property, plant and equipment, net at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 were as follows:

	June 30, 2020			December 31, 2019
Land	$	2.8		$	0.3
Buildings		31.1			26.8
Machinery and equipment		112.3			111.9
		146.2			139.0
Less: Accumulated depreciation		(127.2	)		(121.5	)
Total	$	19.0		$	17.5

Depreciation expense was $4.1 million and $1.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, and $5.8 million and $3.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

Assets Held for Sale—As of December 31, 2019, the Company had one real estate property, primarily consisting of land and an office building, held for sale with a carrying value of $5.6 million. In the second quarter of 2020, the Company suspended the sale process due to uncertainties in the real estate market as a result of the coronavirus pandemic and reclassified assets held for sale back into its respective property, plant and equipment categories.

Software—Capitalized software development costs are amortized over their estimated useful life using the straight-line method, up to a maximum of three years. Amortization expense related to internally-developed software, excluding amortization expense related to other intangible assets, was $7.3 million and $6.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, and $14.6 million and $13.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

Investments—The carrying value of the Company’s investments in equity securities was $12.3 million and $25.2 million at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively. During the three months ended June 30, 2020, the Company sold one of its investments in equity securities for $12.8 million, which approximated the carrying value of the investment. The Company measures its equity securities that do not have a readily determinable fair value, at cost minus impairment, if any, plus or minus changes resulting from observable price changes in orderly transactions for the identical or a similar investment of the same issuer. The Company performs an assessment on a quarterly basis to determine whether triggering events for impairment exist and to identify any observable price changes. During the six months ended June 30, 2020, there were no events or changes in circumstances that suggested an impairment or an observable price change of any of these investments resulting from an orderly transaction for the identical or a similar investment.

Share-based Compensation—Share-based compensation expense was $3.1 million and $3.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, and $5.4 million and $5.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The income tax benefit related to share-based compensation expense was $0.5 million and $0.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, and $0.6 million and $1.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued an Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326) Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (“ASU 2016-13”), which replaces the incurred loss model with a current expected credit loss (“CECL”) model and requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information to explain credit loss estimates. This standard applies to financial assets, measured at amortized cost, including loans, held-to-maturity debt securities, net investments in leases and trade accounts receivable. The guidance must be adopted using a modified retrospective transition method through a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings in the period of adoption.

On January 1, 2020, the Company adopted the standard and recorded a $0.5 million cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings. The Company’s credit loss reserves primarily relate to trade receivables, unbilled receivables and contract assets. The Company establishes provisions at differing rates, which are region or country-specific, and are based upon the age of the trade receivable, the Company’s historical collection experience in each region or country and lines of business, where appropriate. Provisions for unbilled receivables and contract assets are established based on rates which management believes to be appropriate considering its historical experience. Specific customer provisions are made when a review of significant outstanding amounts, utilizing information about customer creditworthiness and current economic trends, indicates that collection is doubtful.

Transactions affecting the current expected credit loss reserve during the six months ended June 30, 2020 were as follows:

	June 30, 2020
Balance, beginning of year	$	7.7
Adoption of ASU 2016-13		0.5
Provisions charged to expense and reclassifications		4.3
Write-offs and other		(1.0	)
Balance, end of period (a)	$	11.5

(a) As of June 30, 2020, the CECL reserve balance is comprised of a $10.7 million provision for accounts receivable and a $0.8 million provision for unbilled receivables and contract assets, all of which are included in receivables, net on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. As of December 31, 2019, prior to the adoption of ASU 2016-13, the reserve balance was comprised of a $7.7 million allowance for doubtful accounts.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-15, “Intangibles - Goodwill and Other - Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40).” The standard requires a customer in a hosting arrangement that is a service contract to follow the internal-use software guidance to determine which implementation costs to capitalize as an asset related to the service contract and to expense the capitalized implementation costs over the term of the hosting arrangement. The standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and the interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company adopted the standard prospectively on January 1, 2020. The adoption of the standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting (“ASU 2020-04”), which provides optional guidance for a limited period of time to use optional expedients and exceptions for applying U.S. GAAP to contracts and other transactions affected by reference rate reform, if certain criteria are met. The amendments in ASU 2020-04 apply only to contracts and other transactions that reference the London Inter-bank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) or another reference rate expected to be discontinued due to reference rate reform. Generally, the expedients and exceptions provided by ASU 2020-04 would only be allowed for contract modifications made prior to December 31, 2022. The Company adopted the standard prospectively in the second quarter of 2020. The adoption of the standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes (“ASU 2019-12”), which modifies ASC 740, Income Taxes, to simplify the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions for recognizing deferred taxes for investments, performing intraperiod allocation and calculating income taxes in interim periods. ASU 2019-12 also adds guidance to reduce complexity in certain areas, including recognizing deferred taxes for tax goodwill and allocating taxes to members of a consolidated group. The standard is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2020. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of this standard will have on its condensed consolidated financial statements.

Revenue Recognition [Abstract]

Note 2. Revenue

Revenue Recognition

The Company manages highly-customized data and materials, such as filings with the SEC on behalf of its customers pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Act”), manages virtual data rooms and performs eXtensible Business Reporting Language (“XBRL”) and related services. Clients are provided with EDGAR filing services, XBRL compliance services and translation, editing, interpreting, proof-reading and multilingual typesetting services, among others. The Company’s software solutions include Venue, the FundSuiteArc software platform, ActiveDisclosure and data and analytics, among others.

Substantially all of the Company’s revenue is derived from contracts with an initial expected duration of one year or less. Generally, customer payment is due within ten days upon invoicing.

Revenue is recognized upon transfer of control of promised services or products to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for those services or products. The Company’s arrangements with customers often include promises to transfer multiple services or products to a customer. Determining whether services and products are considered distinct performance obligations that should be accounted for separately requires significant judgment. Certain customer arrangements have multiple performance obligations as certain promises are both capable of being distinct and are distinct within the context of the contract. Other customer arrangements have a single performance obligation as the promise to transfer the individual goods or services is not separately identifiable from other promises in the contracts, and therefore are not distinct.

Revenue for the Company’s tech-enabled services, software solutions and print and distribution offerings is recognized either over time or at a point in time, as outlined below.

Over time

The Company recognizes revenue for certain services over time:

• The Company’s software solutions, including Venue, the FundSuiteArc software platform, ActiveDisclosure, data and analytics and others, are generally provided on a subscription basis and allow customers access to use the products over the contract period. As a result, software solutions revenue is predominantly recognized ratably over time as the customer receives the benefit throughout the contract period. The timing of invoicing varies, however, the customer may be invoiced before the end of the contract period, resulting in a deferred revenue balance.

Point in time

Certain revenue arrangements, primarily for tech-enabled services and print and distribution offerings, are recognized at a point in time and are primarily invoiced upon completion of all services or upon shipment to the customer.

• Certain arrangements include multiple performance obligations and revenue is recognized upon completion of each performance obligation, such as when a document is filed with a regulatory agency and upon completion of printing the related document. For arrangements with multiple performance obligations, the transaction price is allocated to the separate performance obligations. The Company provides customer specific solutions and as such, observable standalone selling price is rarely available. Standalone selling price is determined using an estimate of the standalone selling price of each distinct service or product, taking into consideration historical selling price by customer for each distinct service or product. These estimates may vary from the final amounts invoiced to the customer and are adjusted upon completion of all performance obligations. Customers may be invoiced subsequent to the recognition of revenue for completed performance obligations, resulting in contract asset balances.

• Revenue for arrangements which include assisting customers in completing regulatory filings for transactions, such as mergers and acquisitions or other public capital market transactions, is recognized upon completion of all obligations, including the services performed and printing of the related document, if applicable.

• Revenue for arrangements without a regulatory filing generally have a single performance obligation. As the services and products provided are not distinct within the context of the contract, the revenue is recognized upon completion of the services performed or upon completion of printing of the related product.

• Warehousing, fulfillment services and shipping and handling are each separate performance obligations. As a result, when the Company provides warehousing and future fulfillment services, revenue for the composition services performed and printing of the product is recognized upon completion of the performance obligation(s), as control of the inventory has transferred to the customer and the inventory is being stored at the customer’s request.

Because substantially all of the Company’s products are customized, product returns are not significant; however, the Company accrues for the estimated amount of customer credits at the time of sale.

The Company records deferred revenue when amounts are invoiced but the revenue recognition criteria are not yet met. Such revenue is recognized when all criteria are subsequently met.

Certain revenues earned by the Company require significant judgment to determine if revenue should be recorded gross, as a principal, or net of related costs, as an agent. Billings for shipping and handling costs as well as certain postage costs, and out-of-pocket expenses are recorded gross. Revenue is not recognized for customer-supplied postage. The Company’s printing operations process paper that may be supplied directly by customers or may be purchased by the Company from third parties and sold to customers. Revenue is not recognized for customer-supplied paper, however, revenues for Company-supplied paper are recognized on a gross basis. Revenue is recognized net of any taxes collected from customers, which are subsequently remitted to authorities. The Company expenses the costs to obtain the contract, primarily commissions, as incurred.

Disaggregation of revenue

The following table disaggregates revenue between tech-enabled services, software solutions and print and distribution by reportable segment:

	Three Months Ended June 30,

Unbilled Receivables and Contract Balances

The timing of revenue recognition may differ from the timing of invoicing customers and these timing differences result in unbilled receivables, contract assets or contract liabilities. Contract assets represent revenue recognized for performance obligations completed before an unconditional right to payment exists, and therefore invoicing has not yet occurred. Unbilled receivables are recorded when there is an unconditional right to payment and invoicing has not yet occurred. Unbilled receivables were $73.3 million at June 30, 2020 and $33.5 million at December 31, 2019. Contract assets were $10.4 million at June 30, 2020 and $8.9 million at December 31, 2019, respectively. Generally, the contract assets balance is impacted by the recognition of additional contract assets, offset by amounts invoiced to customers. For the six months ended June 30, 2020, final amounts invoiced to customers exceeded estimates of standalone selling price as of December 31, 2019 for the related arrangements by approximately $0.1 million. Unbilled receivables and contract assets are included in accounts receivable on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Contract liabilities consist of deferred revenue and progress billings which are included in accrued liabilities on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Changes in contract liabilities for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, were as follows:

Balance at January 1, 2020	$	13.1
Deferral of revenue		22.9

Goodwill And Intangible Assets Disclosure [Abstract]

Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

Note 3. Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

As discussed in Note 1, Overview, Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies, during the first quarter of 2020, management realigned the Company’s operating segments. DFIN’s four operating segments are the same as its reporting units: CM-SS; CM-CCM; IC-SS; IC-CCM (“Current Structure”). The Company previously had three reporting units: Capital Markets, Investment Markets and International (“Previous Structure”), that each had goodwill.

As a result of the new segmentation, a goodwill impairment analysis was completed for the Previous Structure during the first quarter of 2020, before the reallocation of goodwill to the Current Structure. Each of the reporting units under the Previous Structure was reviewed for impairment using a quantitative assessment, where the estimated fair value of each reporting unit was compared to its carrying amount, including goodwill. The Company did not recognize any goodwill impairment as the estimated fair values of all reporting units exceeded their respective carrying amounts. In addition to the impairment analysis under the Previous Structure, a goodwill impairment analysis was completed under the Current Structure during the first quarter of 2020 and no goodwill impairment was recognized as the estimated fair values of all reporting units exceeded their respective carrying amounts. Goodwill was reassigned to the Current Structure using a relative fair value approach.

The balances of goodwill by segment are presented below:

	Net book value at March 31, 2020		Foreign exchange and other adjustments		Net book value at June 30, 2020
Capital Markets - Software Solutions	$	103.6	$	—	$	103.6

Restructuring And Related Activities [Abstract]

Restructuring, Impairment and Other Charges

Note 5. Restructuring, Impairment and Other Charges

Restructuring, Impairment and Other Charges recognized in Results of Operations

The Company records restructuring charges associated with management-approved restructuring plans, which could include the elimination of job functions, closure or relocation of facilities, reorganization of operations, changes in management structure, workforce reductions or other actions. Restructuring charges may include ongoing and enhanced termination benefits related to employee separations, contract termination costs, impairment of certain assets and other related costs associated with exit or disposal activities. Severance benefits are provided to employees primarily under the Company’s ongoing benefit arrangements. These severance costs are accrued once management commits to a plan of termination and it becomes probable that employees will be separated and entitled to benefits at amounts that can be reasonably estimated. In some instances, the Company enhances its ongoing termination benefits with one-time termination benefits and employee severance costs to be incurred in relation to these restructuring activities are recognized when employees are notified of their enhanced termination benefits.

For the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, the Company recorded the following net restructuring and other charges by segment:

Three Months Ended June 30, 2020	Employee Terminations		Impairment Charges		Other Charges		Total

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company recorded net restructuring charges of $12.3 million and $13.9 million, respectively, for employee termination costs for approximately 460 and 510 employees, respectively. The restructuring actions were primarily the result of the upcoming implementation of SEC Rule 30e-3 and amendments to SEC Rule 498A, both of which will significantly reduce print volumes beginning January 1, 2021, and the reorganization of certain capital markets operations as well as selling and administrative functions. Although some employees were terminated as of June 30, 2020, the majority of employees will continue to provide services at least through December 31, 2020.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, the Company recorded net restructuring charges of $3.8 million and $5.8 million for employee termination costs for approximately 95 and 165 employees, respectively, substantially all of whom were terminated as of June 30, 2019. These charges primarily related to the reorganization of certain operations.

The Company abandoned certain operating leases during the second quarter with the intent to sublease. As the fair value of the ROU assets was less than the carrying value, the Company recognized impairments of ROU assets of $12.1 million for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, reducing the carrying value of the ROU assets to an estimated combined fair value of $2.4 million. The fair value of these assets was estimated utilizing inputs from market comparables in order to estimate future cash flows expected from sublease income over the remaining lease terms. Future changes in the estimated amount or timing of sublease arrangements could result in further impairment charges.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company also incurred $0.7 million and $2.2 million, respectively, of other charges, primarily related to the realignment of the Company’s operating segments, as further described in Note 12, Segment Information

Restructuring Reserve – Employee Terminations

The Company’s employee terminations liability is included in accrued liabilities in the Company’s Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Changes in the accrual for employee terminations during the six months ended June 30, 2020, were as follows:

Commitments and Contingencies

Note 7. Commitments and Contingencies

Litigation

From time to time, the Company’s customers and others file voluntary petitions for reorganization under United States bankruptcy laws. In such cases, certain pre-petition payments received by the Company from these parties could be considered preference items and subject to return. In addition, the Company may be party to certain litigation arising in the ordinary course of business. Management believes that the final resolution of these preference items and litigation will not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

Multiemployer Pension Plans Obligation

On April 13, 2020, LSC Communications, Inc. (“LSC”) announced that it, along with most of its U.S. subsidiaries, voluntarily filed for business reorganization under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code (“LSC Chapter 11 Filing”). LSC and the Company separated from R. R. Donnelley & Sons Company (“RRD”) in a tax-free distribution to shareholders effective October 1, 2016 (the “Separation”). In the second quarter of 2020, the Company became aware that, subsequent to the LSC Chapter 11 Filing, LSC failed to make certain required monthly and quarterly withdrawal liability payments to multiemployer pension plans from which RRD had withdrawn prior to the Separation. Responsibility for the pre-Separation withdrawal liability obligations, resulting in such monthly and quarterly payment obligations (the “MEPP Liabilities”), had been assigned to LSC pursuant to the September 14, 2016 Separation and Distribution Agreement among the Company, RRD and LSC (the “Separation Agreement”), however, the Company and RRD remained jointly and severally liable for the MEPP Liabilities pursuant to laws and regulations governing multiemployer pension plans. The Company believes the total undiscounted MEPP Liabilities for which LSC is responsible are approximately $103 million (or approximately $57 million on a discounted basis, assuming a blended discount rate of approximately 10%) and are payable over approximately a 15-year period (through 2034), with annual payments ranging from $1.6 million to $8.5 million.   

On July 24, 2020, the Company and RRD signed an agreement agreeing to submit to mediation and, if required, arbitration to determine the final liability allocation between the Company and RRD with respect to the MEPP Liabilities. DFIN and RRD also agreed to share all required monthly and quarterly withdrawal liability payment obligations that become due during the mediation/arbitration period, with an adjustment and repayment to be made for any such payments according to the final allocation.

The Company is required to record a liability when it is probable that a loss has been incurred and the amount can be reasonably estimated. As of June 30, 2020, the Company recorded a contingent liability of $10.2 million for its potential payments in respect of the MEPP Liabilities, representing the Company’s low end of the range of potential outcomes. The Company is not able to reasonably estimate the maximum potential loss due to the uncertainty related to the outcome of the final allocation of the MEPP Liabilities between the Company and RRD. The Company also recorded an additional $2.1 million for the Company’s estimated share of obligations until a final allocation is determined. The expense associated with this liability has been recorded in SG&A expense within the Corporate segment in the Company’s Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020.

There can be no assurance that the Company’s actual future liabilities relating to the MEPP Liabilities will not differ materially from the contingency amount recorded during the second quarter of 2020. The Company’s MEPP Liabilities could also be affected by the financial stability of other employers participating in such plans and decisions by those employers to withdraw from such plans in the future.

Total debt	$	350.7		$	296.0
Less: current portion (a)		0.5			—
Total long-term debt	$	350.2		$	296.0

(a) On July 2, 2020, the Company purchased and retired $0.5 million (notional amount) of the Notes at an average price of 98.75.

Maturities—At June 30, 2020, the Company’s long-term debt was comprised of the 8.25% senior unsecured notes due October 15, 2024 (“Notes”) and borrowings under the Revolving Facility, as defined below.

Fair Value—The fair value of the Notes, which was determined using the market approach based upon interest rates available to the Company for borrowings with similar terms and maturities, was determined to be Level 2 under the fair value hierarchy. The fair value of the Company’s Notes was $230.3 million and $308.4 million at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively.

8.25% Senior Notes Due 2024—In the first quarter of 2020, the Company purchased and retired $66.5 million (notional amount) of the Notes at an average price of 95.25 and recognized a pre-tax gain on the extinguishment of debt of $2.3 million, which was net of unamortized debt issuance costs, and is recorded within interest expense, net in the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

The Company’s Notes, with interest payable semi-annually on April 15 and October 15, were issued pursuant to an indenture where certain wholly-owned domestic subsidiaries of the Company guarantee the Notes (the “Guarantors”). The Notes are jointly and severally guaranteed, on an unsecured basis, by the Guarantors, which are comprised of each of the Company’s existing and future direct and indirect wholly-owned U.S. subsidiaries that guarantee the Company’s obligations under the Credit Facilities. The Notes are not guaranteed by the Company’s foreign subsidiaries or unrestricted subsidiaries. The Notes and the related guarantees will be the Company and the Guarantors’, respective, senior unsecured obligations and rank equally in right of payment to all present and future senior debt, including the obligations under the Company’s Credit Facilities, senior in right of payment to all present and future subordinated debt, and effectively subordinated in right of payment to any of the Company and the Guarantors’ secured debt, to the extent of the value of the assets securing such debt. The indenture governing the Notes contains certain covenants applicable to the Company and its restricted subsidiaries, including limitations on: (1) liens; (2) indebtedness; (3) mergers, consolidations and acquisitions; (4) sales, transfers and other dispositions of assets; (5) loans and other investments; (6) dividends and other distributions, stock repurchases and redemptions and other restricted payments; (7) restrictions affecting subsidiaries; (8) transactions with affiliates; and (9) designations of unrestricted subsidiaries. Each of these covenants is subject to important exceptions and qualifications.

Credit Agreement—On September 30, 2016, the Company entered into a Credit Agreement, as amended (“the Credit Agreement”) by and among the Company, the lenders party thereto from time to time and JP Morgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent. The Credit Agreement provides for a $350.0 million senior secured term loan B facility (the “Term Loan Credit Facility”) and a $300.0 million senior secured revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Facility”, and, together with the Term Loan Credit Facility, the “Credit Facilities”). The Credit Agreement contains a number of covenants, including a minimum Interest Coverage Ratio and a maximum Leverage Ratio, as defined in and calculated pursuant to the Credit Agreement, that, in part, restrict the Company’s ability to incur additional indebtedness, create liens, engage in mergers and consolidations, make restricted payments and dispose of certain assets. The Credit Agreement generally allows annual dividend payments of up to $20.0 million in the aggregate. As of December 31, 2019, the Company paid off its Term Loan Credit Facility.

Revolving Credit Facility—On December 18, 2018, the Company entered into a second amendment to the Credit Agreement which extended the maturity date of the Revolving Facility to December 18, 2023. As of June 30, 2020, there was $120.0 million of borrowings outstanding under the Revolving Facility. The weighted average interest rate on borrowings under the Revolving Facility was 2.7% and 5.0% for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

Earnings Per Share [Abstract]

Earnings per Share

Note 9. Earnings per Share

Basic earnings (loss) per share is calculated by dividing net earnings (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. In computing diluted earnings per share, basic earnings per share is adjusted for the assumed issuance of all potentially dilutive share-based awards, including stock options, restricted stock units, performance share units and restricted stock.

The reconciliation of the numerator and denominator of the basic and diluted earnings per share calculation and the anti-dilutive share-based awards for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 were as follows:

Accounting Policies [Abstract]

Use of Estimates

Use of Estimates—The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires the extensive use of management’s estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as well as disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from these estimates. The Company’s significant accounting policies and critical estimates are disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report.

Prepaid Expenses

Prepaid Expenses—As of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, prepaid expenses were $10.6 million and $9.6 million, respectively.

Inventories

Inventory—The components of the Company’s inventories stated at the lower of cost or market, net of excess and obsolescence reserves for raw materials, at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 were as follows:  

	June 30, 2020		December 31, 2019
Raw materials and manufacturing supplies	$	4.2	$	3.9
Work in process		6.8		7.2
Total	$	11.0	$	11.1

Software

Software—Capitalized software development costs are amortized over their estimated useful life using the straight-line method, up to a maximum of three years. Amortization expense related to internally-developed software, excluding amortization expense related to other intangible assets, was $7.3 million and $6.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, and $14.6 million and $13.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

Investments

Investments—The carrying value of the Company’s investments in equity securities was $12.3 million and $25.2 million at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively. During the three months ended June 30, 2020, the Company sold one of its investments in equity securities for $12.8 million, which approximated the carrying value of the investment. The Company measures its equity securities that do not have a readily determinable fair value, at cost minus impairment, if any, plus or minus changes resulting from observable price changes in orderly transactions for the identical or a similar investment of the same issuer. The Company performs an assessment on a quarterly basis to determine whether triggering events for impairment exist and to identify any observable price changes. During the six months ended June 30, 2020, there were no events or changes in circumstances that suggested an impairment or an observable price change of any of these investments resulting from an orderly transaction for the identical or a similar investment.

Share-based Compensation

Share-based Compensation—Share-based compensation expense was $3.1 million and $3.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, and $5.4 million and $5.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The income tax benefit related to share-based compensation expense was $0.5 million and $0.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, and $0.6 million and $1.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued an Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326) Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (“ASU 2016-13”), which replaces the incurred loss model with a current expected credit loss (“CECL”) model and requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information to explain credit loss estimates. This standard applies to financial assets, measured at amortized cost, including loans, held-to-maturity debt securities, net investments in leases and trade accounts receivable. The guidance must be adopted using a modified retrospective transition method through a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings in the period of adoption.

On January 1, 2020, the Company adopted the standard and recorded a $0.5 million cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings. The Company’s credit loss reserves primarily relate to trade receivables, unbilled receivables and contract assets. The Company establishes provisions at differing rates, which are region or country-specific, and are based upon the age of the trade receivable, the Company’s historical collection experience in each region or country and lines of business, where appropriate. Provisions for unbilled receivables and contract assets are established based on rates which management believes to be appropriate considering its historical experience. Specific customer provisions are made when a review of significant outstanding amounts, utilizing information about customer creditworthiness and current economic trends, indicates that collection is doubtful.

Transactions affecting the current expected credit loss reserve during the six months ended June 30, 2020 were as follows:

	June 30, 2020
Balance, beginning of year	$	7.7
Adoption of ASU 2016-13		0.5
Provisions charged to expense and reclassifications		4.3
Write-offs and other		(1.0	)
Balance, end of period (a)	$	11.5

(a) As of June 30, 2020, the CECL reserve balance is comprised of a $10.7 million provision for accounts receivable and a $0.8 million provision for unbilled receivables and contract assets, all of which are included in receivables, net on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. As of December 31, 2019, prior to the adoption of ASU 2016-13, the reserve balance was comprised of a $7.7 million allowance for doubtful accounts.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-15, “Intangibles - Goodwill and Other - Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40).” The standard requires a customer in a hosting arrangement that is a service contract to follow the internal-use software guidance to determine which implementation costs to capitalize as an asset related to the service contract and to expense the capitalized implementation costs over the term of the hosting arrangement. The standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and the interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company adopted the standard prospectively on January 1, 2020. The adoption of the standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting (“ASU 2020-04”), which provides optional guidance for a limited period of time to use optional expedients and exceptions for applying U.S. GAAP to contracts and other transactions affected by reference rate reform, if certain criteria are met. The amendments in ASU 2020-04 apply only to contracts and other transactions that reference the London Inter-bank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) or another reference rate expected to be discontinued due to reference rate reform. Generally, the expedients and exceptions provided by ASU 2020-04 would only be allowed for contract modifications made prior to December 31, 2022. The Company adopted the standard prospectively in the second quarter of 2020. The adoption of the standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes (“ASU 2019-12”), which modifies ASC 740, Income Taxes, to simplify the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions for recognizing deferred taxes for investments, performing intraperiod allocation and calculating income taxes in interim periods. ASU 2019-12 also adds guidance to reduce complexity in certain areas, including recognizing deferred taxes for tax goodwill and allocating taxes to members of a consolidated group. The standard is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2020. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of this standard will have on its condensed consolidated financial statements.

Revenue Recognition

Revenue Recognition

The Company manages highly-customized data and materials, such as filings with the SEC on behalf of its customers pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Act”), manages virtual data rooms and performs eXtensible Business Reporting Language (“XBRL”) and related services. Clients are provided with EDGAR filing services, XBRL compliance services and translation, editing, interpreting, proof-reading and multilingual typesetting services, among others. The Company’s software solutions include Venue, the FundSuiteArc software platform, ActiveDisclosure and data and analytics, among others.

Substantially all of the Company’s revenue is derived from contracts with an initial expected duration of one year or less. Generally, customer payment is due within ten days upon invoicing.

Revenue is recognized upon transfer of control of promised services or products to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for those services or products. The Company’s arrangements with customers often include promises to transfer multiple services or products to a customer. Determining whether services and products are considered distinct performance obligations that should be accounted for separately requires significant judgment. Certain customer arrangements have multiple performance obligations as certain promises are both capable of being distinct and are distinct within the context of the contract. Other customer arrangements have a single performance obligation as the promise to transfer the individual goods or services is not separately identifiable from other promises in the contracts, and therefore are not distinct.

Revenue for the Company’s tech-enabled services, software solutions and print and distribution offerings is recognized either over time or at a point in time, as outlined below.

Over time

The Company recognizes revenue for certain services over time:

• The Company’s software solutions, including Venue, the FundSuiteArc software platform, ActiveDisclosure, data and analytics and others, are generally provided on a subscription basis and allow customers access to use the products over the contract period. As a result, software solutions revenue is predominantly recognized ratably over time as the customer receives the benefit throughout the contract period. The timing of invoicing varies, however, the customer may be invoiced before the end of the contract period, resulting in a deferred revenue balance.

Point in time

Certain revenue arrangements, primarily for tech-enabled services and print and distribution offerings, are recognized at a point in time and are primarily invoiced upon completion of all services or upon shipment to the customer.

• Certain arrangements include multiple performance obligations and revenue is recognized upon completion of each performance obligation, such as when a document is filed with a regulatory agency and upon completion of printing the related document. For arrangements with multiple performance obligations, the transaction price is allocated to the separate performance obligations. The Company provides customer specific solutions and as such, observable standalone selling price is rarely available. Standalone selling price is determined using an estimate of the standalone selling price of each distinct service or product, taking into consideration historical selling price by customer for each distinct service or product. These estimates may vary from the final amounts invoiced to the customer and are adjusted upon completion of all performance obligations. Customers may be invoiced subsequent to the recognition of revenue for completed performance obligations, resulting in contract asset balances.

• Revenue for arrangements which include assisting customers in completing regulatory filings for transactions, such as mergers and acquisitions or other public capital market transactions, is recognized upon completion of all obligations, including the services performed and printing of the related document, if applicable.

• Revenue for arrangements without a regulatory filing generally have a single performance obligation. As the services and products provided are not distinct within the context of the contract, the revenue is recognized upon completion of the services performed or upon completion of printing of the related product.

• Warehousing, fulfillment services and shipping and handling are each separate performance obligations. As a result, when the Company provides warehousing and future fulfillment services, revenue for the composition services performed and printing of the product is recognized upon completion of the performance obligation(s), as control of the inventory has transferred to the customer and the inventory is being stored at the customer’s request.

Because substantially all of the Company’s products are customized, product returns are not significant; however, the Company accrues for the estimated amount of customer credits at the time of sale.

The Company records deferred revenue when amounts are invoiced but the revenue recognition criteria are not yet met. Such revenue is recognized when all criteria are subsequently met.

Certain revenues earned by the Company require significant judgment to determine if revenue should be recorded gross, as a principal, or net of related costs, as an agent. Billings for shipping and handling costs as well as certain postage costs, and out-of-pocket expenses are recorded gross. Revenue is not recognized for customer-supplied postage. The Company’s printing operations process paper that may be supplied directly by customers or may be purchased by the Company from third parties and sold to customers. Revenue is not recognized for customer-supplied paper, however, revenues for Company-supplied paper are recognized on a gross basis. Revenue is recognized net of any taxes collected from customers, which are subsequently remitted to authorities. The Company expenses the costs to obtain the contract, primarily commissions, as incurred.

Restructuring, Impairment and Other Charges recognized in Results of Operations

Restructuring, Impairment and Other Charges recognized in Results of Operations

The Company records restructuring charges associated with management-approved restructuring plans, which could include the elimination of job functions, closure or relocation of facilities, reorganization of operations, changes in management structure, workforce reductions or other actions. Restructuring charges may include ongoing and enhanced termination benefits related to employee separations, contract termination costs, impairment of certain assets and other related costs associated with exit or disposal activities. Severance benefits are provided to employees primarily under the Company’s ongoing benefit arrangements. These severance costs are accrued once management commits to a plan of termination and it becomes probable that employees will be separated and entitled to benefits at amounts that can be reasonably estimated. In some instances, the Company enhances its ongoing termination benefits with one-time termination benefits and employee severance costs to be incurred in relation to these restructuring activities are recognized when employees are notified of their enhanced termination benefits.
