CROSS COUNTRY HEALTHCARE, INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)

1.    ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Nature of Business

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Cross Country Healthcare, Inc. and its direct and indirect wholly-owned subsidiaries (collectively, the Company). In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of such unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been included. All such adjustments consisted of all normal recurring items, including the elimination of all intercompany transactions and balances.

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (U.S. GAAP) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. These operating results are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2024.

These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2023 included in the 2023 Form 10-K. The December 31, 2023 condensed consolidated balance sheet included herein was derived from the December 31, 2023 audited consolidated balance sheet included in the 2023 Form 10-K.

Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation. See the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss).

2.    SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Use of Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts in the condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Management has assessed various accounting estimates and other matters, including those that require consideration of forecasted financial information, using information that is reasonably available to the Company at the time. Significant estimates and assumptions are used for, but not limited to: (i) the valuation of accounts receivable; (ii) goodwill, trade names, and other intangible assets; (iii) other long-lived assets; (iv) revenue recognition; (v) accruals for health, workers’ compensation, and professional liability claims; (vi) valuation of deferred tax assets; (vii) legal contingencies; and (viii) income taxes. Accrued insurance claims and reserves include estimated settlements from known claims and actuarial estimates for claims incurred but not reported. As additional information becomes available to the Company, its future assessment of these estimates could materially and adversely impact the Company's consolidated financial statements in future reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Risks and Uncertainties

The Company’s future results of operations and liquidity could be materially adversely affected by macroeconomic factors contributing to delays in payments from customers and inflationary pressure, uncertain or reduced demand, and the impact of any initiatives or programs that the Company may undertake to address financial and operational challenges faced by its customers. See associated risk factors in Item 1A. Risk Factors in the 2023 Form 10-K.

Restatement of Prior Period Financial Statements

In connection with the preparation of the Company’s financial statements for the quarter ended September 30, 2024, the Company identified an accounting error related to Medical Staffing Network Healthcare, LLC, which the Company acquired on June 30, 2014. The error pertains to an elimination entry that was improperly recorded, which resulted in the overstatement of revenue and the understatement of subcontractor liabilities. It was determined that the impact of the error was inconsequential in 2023 and 2024, and primarily related to the fiscal years of 2020 through 2022, during which time the Company's business greatly accelerated as a result of the pandemic. This non-cash error did not affect client billings, payments to health care professionals, or payments to subcontractors.

6


Management assessed the materiality of the error, including the presentation in prior period consolidated financial statements, on a qualitative and quantitative basis in accordance with SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 99, Materiality, codified in Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 250, Accounting Changes and Error Corrections. Based on this assessment, the Company concluded that the error and the related impacts did not result in a material misstatement of the previously issued consolidated financial statements as of and for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2021 through 2023. However, correcting the cumulative effect of the error in the third quarter of 2024 would have had a material effect on the results of operations for that period.

Therefore, the relevant prior periods’ financial statements and related footnotes have been corrected. Previously reported financial information for such an immaterial error will be corrected in future filings, as applicable.

The Company has provided a summary of the revisions to the impacted financial statement line items from the previously issued financial statements. See Note 16 - Immaterial Financial Restatement to Prior Period Financial Statements.

Accounts Receivable, net

The timing of revenue recognition, billings, and collections results in billed and unbilled accounts receivable from customers, which are classified as accounts receivable on the condensed consolidated balance sheets and are presented net of allowances for credit losses and sales allowances. Estimated revenue for the Company employees’, subcontracted employees’, and independent contractors’ time worked but not yet billed at September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 totaled $67.5 million and $89.9 million, respectively.

The Company generally does not require collateral and mitigates its credit risk by performing credit evaluations and monitoring at-risk accounts. The allowance for credit losses is established for losses expected to be incurred on accounts receivable balances. Accounts receivable are written off against the allowance for credit losses when the Company determines amounts are no longer collectible. Judgment is required in the estimation of the allowance and the Company evaluates the collectability of its accounts receivable based on a combination of factors. The Company bases its allowance for credit losses estimates on its historical write-off experience, current conditions, an analysis of the aging of outstanding receivable and customer payment patterns, and specific reserves for customers in adverse condition adjusted for current expectations for the customers or industry. Based on the information currently available, the Company also considered expectations of future economic conditions when estimating its allowance for credit losses.

The opening balance of the allowance for credit losses is reconciled to the closing balance for expected credit losses as follows:
20242023
(amounts in thousands)
Balance at January 1$19,640 $13,058 
Credit Loss Expense1,290 4,908 
Write-Offs, net of Recoveries(1,555)54

Credit Loss Expense1,512 2,355 
Write-Offs, net of Recoveries(1,942)(1,394)
Balance at September 30$34,602 $17,875 

In addition to the allowance for credit losses, the Company maintains a sales allowance for billing-related adjustments that may arise in the ordinary course of business and adjustments to the reserve are recorded as contra-revenue. The sales allowance balance as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 was $0.4 million and $0.9 million, respectively.

The Company’s contract terms typically require payment between 30 to 60 days from the date of invoice and are considered past due based on the particular negotiated contract terms. The majority of the Company's customers are healthcare systems with a significant percentage in acute-care facilities. No single customer accounted for more than 10% of the Company’s revenue for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, or the Company’s accounts receivable balance as of
7

September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023. In 2023, there was an increase in credit loss expense primarily driven by a deterioration in the accounts receivable aging stemming from a single MSP customer. On May 6, 2024, the customer filed a voluntary petition for relief under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code. As a result, the Company recorded an associated credit loss expense of $19.4 million during the quarter ended June 30, 2024.

Restructuring Costs

The Company considers restructuring activities to be programs whereby it fundamentally changes its operations, such as closing and consolidating facilities, reducing headcount, and realigning operations in response to changing market conditions. As a result, restructuring costs on the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss) primarily include employee termination costs and lease-related exit costs.

Reconciliations of the employee termination costs and lease-related exit costs beginning and ending liability balance is presented below:

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

On December 14, 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which requires that public business entities, on an annual basis, (1) disclose specific categories in the rate reconciliation and (2) provide additional information for reconciling items that meet a quantitative threshold (if the effect of those reconciling items is equal to or greater than five percent of the amount computed by multiplying pretax income (or loss) by the applicable statutory income tax rate). The amendments also require that all entities disclose, on an annual basis, disaggregated information regarding income taxes paid and income tax expense. This guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. The amendments should be applied prospectively, but retrospective application is permitted. Early adoption is permitted for annual financial statements that have not yet been issued or made available for issuance. The Company expects to adopt this standard for its annual report for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025. The Company expects this ASU to only impact its disclosures with no impacts to results of operations, cash flows, and financial condition.

On November 27, 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures, which improves reportable segment disclosure requirements, primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses, enhances interim disclosure requirements, clarifies circumstances in which an entity can disclose multiple segment measures of profit or loss, provides new segment disclosure requirements for entities with a single reportable segment, and requires certain disclosures related to the chief operating decision maker. This guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. The amendments should be applied retrospectively to all prior periods presented in the financial statements. Early adoption is permitted. The Company expects to adopt this standard for its fiscal year ended December 31, 2024. The Company expects this ASU to only expand its disclosures with no impacts to results of operations, cash flows, and financial condition.

4.    ACQUISITIONS

HireUp

On December 13, 2022, the Company purchased and acquired substantially all of the assets and assumed certain liabilities of HireUp Leadership Inc. (HireUp) for a purchase price of $6.0 million in cash, subject to adjustment, and $0.8 million in shares (or 29,811 shares) of the Company's common stock. The transaction was treated as a purchase of assets for income tax purposes.

9

The sellers were eligible to receive up to an additional $8.0 million in earnout cash consideration based on HireUp's revenues and Adjusted EBITDA for each of the twelve-month periods ending on the first and second anniversaries of the first day after the closing date. Quarterly throughout 2023, and during the first quarter of 2024, the Company performed analyses using multiple updated forecasted scenarios and determined that the earnout would only be partially achieved. As a result, the Company recognized a decrease in the fair value of the related liabilities in the second and third quarters of 2023 and the first quarter of 2024. The Company paid the remaining earnout liability of $1.7 million in the first quarter of 2024. See Note 10 - Fair Value Measurements.

Mint

On October 3, 2022, the Company purchased and acquired substantially all of the assets and assumed certain liabilities of Mint Medical Physician Staffing, LP and Lotus Medical Staffing LLC (collectively, Mint) for a purchase price of $27.0 million in cash, subject to adjustment, and $3.6 million in shares (or 114,278 shares) of the Company's common stock. The transaction was treated as a purchase of assets for income tax purposes.

The sellers were eligible to receive up to an additional $10.0 million in earnout cash consideration based on Mint's revenues and gross profit for each of the twelve-month periods ending on the first and second anniversaries of the first day of the calendar month following the closing date. In the fourth quarter of 2023, the Company performed a calculation for the first measurement period, resulting in the achievement of a $4.9 million earnout, which was paid in the first quarter of 2024. During the first quarter of 2024, the Company performed analyses using multiple updated forecasted scenarios and determined that the earnout for the second measurement period would only be partially achieved and, as a result, recognized a decrease in the fair value of the related liabilities. The remaining liability of $4.1 million is included in the current portion of earnout liability on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. See Note 10 - Fair Value Measurements.

Cross Country Workforce Solutions Group (CCWSG)

On June 8, 2021, the Company purchased and acquired substantially all of the assets and assumed certain liabilities of Workforce Solutions Group, Inc. (WSG) for a purchase price of $25.0 million in cash and $5.0 million in shares (or 307,730 shares) of the Company's common stock.

The sellers were eligible to receive an earnout based on the business' performance through three years after the acquisition date that could provide up to an additional $15.0 million in cash. In the third quarter of 2022, the Company determined that the contingent consideration earnout was achieved for the 2021 through 2022 period and, as a result, the Company made a $7.5 million earnout payment. In the third quarter of 2023, the Company determined that the contingent consideration earnout was achieved for the 2022 through 2023 period and, as a result, the Company made the final $7.5 million earnout payment.


5.    COMPREHENSIVE INCOME (LOSS)
 
Total comprehensive income (loss) includes net income or loss and foreign currency translation adjustments, net of any related deferred taxes, and is included within the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss). Certain of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries use their respective local currency as their functional currency. Assets and liabilities of these operations are translated at the exchange rates in effect on the balance sheet date. Income statement items are translated at the average exchange rates for the period. The cumulative impact of currency fluctuations related to the balance sheet translation is included in accumulated other comprehensive loss in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets and was an unrealized loss of $1.5 million as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023.

The income tax impact related to components of other comprehensive income (loss) for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 is included in unrealized foreign currency translation loss, net of tax in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss).

(a) For the nine months ended September 30, 2024, the effect of diluted shares was not included in the weighted average share calculation due to the Company's net operating loss position.

The following table represents the share-based awards that could potentially dilute net income (loss) per share attributable to common stockholders in the future that were not included in the computation of diluted net income (loss) per share attributable to common stockholders because to do so would have been anti-dilutive for the periods presented.

Goodwill, Trade Names, and Other Intangible Assets Impairment

The Company tests reporting units’ goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives for impairment annually during the fourth quarter and more frequently if impairment indicators exist. The Company performs quarterly qualitative assessments of significant events and circumstances, such as reporting units’ historical and current results, assumptions regarding future performance, strategic initiatives and overall economic factors, and macro-economic developments, to determine the existence of potential indicators of impairment and assess if it is more likely than not that the fair value of reporting units or intangible assets is less than their carrying value. If indicators of impairments are identified a quantitative impairment test is performed.

As of September 30, 2024, the Company performed a qualitative assessment of each of its reporting units and determined that it was not more likely than not that the fair value of its reporting units dropped below their carrying value. Although management believes that the Company’s current estimates and assumptions utilized in its qualitative testing are reasonable and supportable, there can be no assurance that the estimates and assumptions management used for purposes of its assessment as of September 30, 2024 will prove to be accurate predictions of future performance.

As of September 30, 2024, goodwill by reporting segment was: $112.5 million for Nurse and Allied Staffing and $22.9 million for Physician Staffing, for a total of $135.4 million.

For its long-lived assets and definite-lived intangible assets, the Company reviews for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. As of September 30, 2024, the Company performed a qualitative assessment of its trade names and other intangible assets and determined it was not more likely than not that their carrying value may not be recoverable. During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company wrote off an abandoned IT project, resulting in an impairment charge.

Debt$— $(2,012)$— $(2,623)

As of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, there was no debt outstanding on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. The Company has elected to present the debt issuance costs associated with its senior secured asset-based credit facility as an asset, included in other assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.
2021 Term Loan Credit Agreement
On June 8, 2021, the Company entered into a Term Loan Credit Agreement (Term Loan Agreement) with certain lenders identified therein (collectively, the Lenders) and Wilmington Trust, National Association as administrative agent and collateral agent, pursuant to which the Lenders extended to the Company a six-year second lien subordinated term loan in the amount of $100.0 million (term loan).

On November 18, 2021, the Company amended the Term Loan Agreement (Term Loan First Amendment), which provided the Company an incremental borrowing in an aggregate amount equal to $75.0 million. Additionally, the Term Loan First Amendment increased the aggregate amount of all increases (as defined in the Term Loan Agreement) to be no greater than $115.0 million.

On April 14, 2023, the Company amended the Term Loan Agreement (Term Loan Second Amendment), which provided the option for all or a portion of the borrowings to bear interest at a rate based on the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR) or the Base Rate (as defined in the Term Loan Agreement), at the election of the borrowers, plus an applicable margin.

On June 30, 2023, the Company repaid all outstanding obligations of $73.9 million under the term loan and terminated the Term Loan Agreement. As a result, debt issuance costs of $1.7 million were written off in the second quarter of 2023. There were no prepayment premiums associated with the payoff and all subsidiary guarantees of the term loan were automatically released.

2019 Asset-Based Loan Agreement
Effective October 25, 2019, the Company terminated its prior senior credit facility and entered into an asset-based loan agreement, by and among the Company and certain of its domestic subsidiaries, as borrowers or guarantors, Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., and PNC Bank N.A., as well as other Lenders (as defined therein) from time to time parties thereto (Loan Agreement). The Loan Agreement provided for a five-year revolving senior secured asset-based credit facility (ABL) in the aggregate principal amount of up to $120.0 million, including a sublimit for swing loans up to $15.0 million and a $35.0 million sublimit for standby letters of credit.
On June 30, 2020, the Company amended the Loan Agreement (First Amendment), which increased the current aggregate committed size of the ABL from $120.0 million to $130.0 million. All other terms, conditions, covenants, and pricing of the Loan Agreement remained the same.
On March 8, 2021, the Company amended the Loan Agreement (Second Amendment), which increased the current aggregate committed size of the ABL from $130.0 million to $150.0 million, increased certain borrowing base sub-limits, and decreased both the cash dominion event and financial reporting triggers.
On June 8, 2021, the Company amended the Loan Agreement (Third Amendment), which permitted the incurrence of indebtedness and grant of security as set forth in the Loan Agreement and in accordance with the Intercreditor Agreement (as defined in the Loan Agreement), and provides mechanics relating to a transition away from LIBOR as a benchmark interest rate to a replacement alternative benchmark rate or mechanism for loans made in U.S. dollars.
On November 18, 2021, the Company amended the Loan Agreement (Fourth Amendment), whereby the permitted indebtedness (as defined in the Loan Agreement), was increased to $175.0 million.
13

On March 21, 2022, the Company amended the Loan Agreement (Fifth Amendment), which increased the current aggregate committed size of the ABL from $150.0 million to $300.0 million, extended the term of the credit facility for an additional five years, through March 21, 2027, and increased certain borrowing base sub-limits. In addition, the agreement provides the option for all or a portion of the borrowings to bear interest at a rate based on the SOFR or the Base Rate (as defined in the Loan Agreement), at the election of the borrowers, plus an applicable margin. The applicable margin increased 10 basis points due to the credit spread associated with the transition to SOFR.
On September 29, 2023, the Company amended the Loan Agreement (Sixth Amendment), which changed the minimum fixed charge coverage ratio from a maintenance covenant to a springing covenant based on excess availability, which provides for compliance with the covenant only during a compliance period (any time that excess availability falls below a certain threshold), and in such case, the financial covenant shall be tested during this period.
On July 29, 2024, the Company amended the Loan Agreement (Seventh Amendment), which allows for all share repurchases paid in cash prior to June 30, 2024 and thereafter to be excluded as restricted payments in the fixed charge coverage ratio calculation, if as of the date of the share repurchase, there is no revolving ABL balance (except for interest and fees payable in accordance with the terms of the Loan Agreement).
These amendments were treated as modifications of debt and, as a result, the associated fees and costs were included in debt issuance costs and are amortized ratably over the remaining term of the Loan Agreement.
The ABL availability is subject to a borrowing base of up to 85% of secured eligible accounts receivable, subject to adjustment at certain quality levels, minus customary reserves and subject to customary adjustments. Revolving loans and letters of credit issued under the Loan Agreement reduce availability under the ABL on a dollar-for-dollar basis. At September 30, 2024, there were no borrowings drawn under the ABL, and borrowing base availability under the ABL was $150.2 million, with $135.2 million of availability net of $15.0 million of letters of credit outstanding related to workers' compensation and professional liability policies.
As of September 30, 2024, the interest rate spreads and fees under the ABL were based on SOFR plus 1.85% for the revolving portion of the borrowing base. The Base Rate margin would have been 0.75% for the revolving portion. The SOFR and Base Rate margins are subject to monthly adjustments, pursuant to a pricing matrix based on the Company’s excess availability under the revolving credit facility. In addition, the facility is subject to an unused line fee, letter of credit fees, and an administrative fee. The unused line fee is 0.375% of the average daily unused portion of the revolving credit facility.
The Loan Agreement contains various restrictions applicable to the Company and its subsidiaries. For the three months ended September 30, 2024, the excess availability did not fall below the stated threshold and, as a result, there was no covenant compliance period. Obligations under the ABL are secured by substantially all of the assets of the borrowers and guarantors, subject to customary exceptions.

9.    LEASES

The Company's lease population of its right-of-use assets and lease liabilities is substantially related to the rental of office space. The Company enters into lease agreements as a lessee that may include options to extend or terminate early. Some of these real estate leases require variable payments of property taxes, insurance, and common area maintenance, in addition to base rent. Certain of the leases have provisions for free rent during the lease term and/or escalating rent payments and, particularly for the Company’s longer-term leases for its corporate offices, it has received incentives to enter into the leases, such as receiving up to a specified dollar amount to construct tenant improvements. These leases do not include residual value guarantees, covenants, or other restrictions.

The table below presents the lease-related assets and liabilities included on the condensed consolidated balance sheets:

Operating lease expense is reported net of sublease income, which is not material.

As of September 30, 2024, the Company did not have any material operating leases that had not yet commenced, and does not have any finance lease contracts.

10.    FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
 
Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. A fair value hierarchy was established which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. There are three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:
 
Level 1—Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
 
16

Level 2—Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.
 
Level 3—Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.
 
Items Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis:
 
The Company’s financial assets/liabilities required to be measured on a recurring basis were primarily its: (i) deferred compensation asset included in other assets; and (ii) deferred compensation liability included in other liabilities on its condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Deferred compensation—The Company utilizes Level 1 inputs to value its deferred compensation assets and liabilities. The Company’s deferred compensation assets and liabilities are measured using publicly available indices, as per the plan documents.

The estimated fair value of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities measured on a recurring basis is as follows: 

Fair Value Measurements
 September 30, 2024December 31, 2023
(amounts in thousands)
Financial Assets:
(Level 1)
Deferred compensation asset$3,759 $3,298 
Financial Liabilities:
(Level 1)  
Deferred compensation liability$2,889 $3,343 

Items Measured at Fair Value on a Non-Recurring Basis:

The Company’s non-financial assets, such as goodwill, trade names, other intangible assets, right-of-use assets, and property and equipment, are measured at fair value when there is an indicator of impairment and are recorded at fair value only when an impairment charge is recognized.

The Company did not record any material impairment charges during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023.

Other Fair Value Disclosures:
 
Financial instruments not measured or recorded at fair value in the condensed consolidated balance sheets consist of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, and accounts payable and accrued expenses. The estimated fair value of accounts receivable and accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate their carrying amount due to the short-term nature of these instruments.

Other financial instruments measured or recorded at fair value include earnout liabilities related to the (i) Mint and (ii) HireUp acquisitions, as discussed below.

(i) Potential earnout payments related to the Mint acquisition are contingent upon meeting certain performance requirements based on 2022 through 2024 performance. On a quarterly basis, the Company performs an analysis using multiple forecasted scenarios to determine the fair value of the earnout liability. In the fourth quarter of 2023, the Company performed the earnout calculation for the first measurement period, resulting in an earnout of $4.9 million, which was paid in the first quarter of 2024. During the first quarter of 2024, the Company determined that the earnout for the second measurement period would only be partially achieved and, as a result, recognized a decrease in the fair value of the related liabilities. The remaining liability of $4.1 million is included in the current portion of earnout liability on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. The carrying amount of the earnout liability approximates fair value. See Note 4 - Acquisitions.
17

(ii) Potential earnout payments related to the HireUp acquisition were contingent upon meeting certain performance requirements based on 2022 through 2024 performance. Quarterly throughout 2023 and in the first quarter of 2024, the Company performed analyses using multiple updated forecasted scenarios and determined that the earnout would only be partially achieved. As a result, the Company recognized a decrease in the fair value of the related liabilities in the second and third quarters of 2023 and the first quarter of 2024. The remaining liability of $1.7 million was paid in the first quarter of 2024. See Note 4 - Acquisitions.

Concentration of Credit Risk:

See discussion of credit losses and allowance for credit losses in Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies. Overall, based on the large number of customers in differing geographic areas, primarily throughout the United States and its territories, the Company believes that the concentration of credit risk is limited.
 
11.    STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY

Stock Repurchase Program
 
On May 1, 2023, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized approximately $59.0 million in additional share repurchases to be added to the prior authorized repurchase program, such that, effective for trades made after May 3, 2023, the aggregate amount available for stock repurchases was set at $100.0 million (the Repurchase Program). The shares can be repurchased from time-to-time in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions. The Repurchase Program does not obligate the Company to repurchase any particular number of shares of common stock and may be discontinued by the Board of Directors at any time. Decisions regarding the amount and the timing of repurchases under the Repurchase Program will be subject to the Company’s available liquidity and cash on hand, applicable legal requirements, the terms of the Company’s Loan Agreement, general market conditions, and other factors.

During the fourth quarter of 2022, the Company entered into a Rule 10b5-1 Repurchase Plan to allow for share repurchases during the Company's blackout periods, effective through November 2, 2023. During the third quarter of 2023, the Company entered into a new Rule 10b5-1 Repurchase Plan to allow for share repurchases during the Company's blackout periods, beginning on January 2, 2024 and effective through November 7, 2024.

During the three months ended September 30, 2024, the Company repurchased a total of 816,879 shares of common stock for $11.9 million, at an average price of $14.57 per share. During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company repurchased a total of 2,107,035 shares of common stock for an aggregate of $33.2 million, at an average price of $15.75 per share. During the three months ended September 30, 2023, the Company repurchased a total of 616,824 shares of common stock for $14.8 million, at an average price of $23.92 per share. During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company repurchased a total of 2,038,691 shares of common stock for $51.2 million, at an average price of $25.12 per share.

As of September 30, 2024, the Company had $44.1 million remaining for share repurchase under the Repurchase Program, subject to certain conditions in the Company's Loan Agreement. As of September 30, 2024, the Company had 32,572,284 unrestricted shares of common stock outstanding.

Share-Based Payments

On May 14, 2024, the Company's stockholders approved the Cross Country Healthcare, Inc. 2024 Omnibus Incentive Plan (2024 Plan). Pursuant to the 2024 Plan, awards may be granted to employees, non-employee directors, consultants, and key advisors of the Company and its subsidiaries, including stock options (including incentive stock options and nonqualified stock options), stock appreciation rights, stock awards, stock units, other stock-based awards, and cash awards. The 2024 Plan was adopted principally to serve as a successor plan to the Cross Country Healthcare, Inc. 2020 Omnibus Incentive Plan (2020 Plan) and to increase the number of shares of Company common stock reserved for equity-based awards to 2,400,000 shares (in addition to the share reserve amount that remained available under the 2020 Plan immediately prior to the adoption of the 2024 Plan and other eligible returning shares). No awards may be granted under the 2024 Plan after May 13, 2034.

18

The following table summarizes restricted stock awards and performance stock awards activity issued under the 2020 Plan and the 2024 Plan (Plans) for the nine months ended September 30, 2024:

Unvested restricted stock awards, September 30, 2024550,907 $19.54 418,294 $20.68 

Restricted stock awards granted under the Company’s Plans entitle the holder to receive, at the end of a vesting period, a specified number of shares of the Company’s common stock. Share-based compensation expense is measured by the market value of the Company’s stock on the date of grant.

Awards granted to non-employee directors under the Plans will vest on the first anniversary of such grant date, or earlier subject to retirement eligibility. In addition, effective for the three months ended June 30, 2020, the Company implemented modified guidelines that provide for accelerated vesting of restricted stock grants on the last date of service when a retirement-eligible director retires.

Pursuant to the Plans, the number of target shares that are issued for performance-based stock awards are determined based on the level of attainment of the targets. During the first quarter of 2024, the Company's Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors approved a 101% level of attainment for the 2021 performance-based share awards, resulting in the issuance of 145,908 performance shares that vested on March 31, 2024.

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, $0.9 million and $4.3 million, respectively, was included in selling, general and administrative expenses related to share-based payments, and a net of 1,163 and 294,414 shares, respectively, of common stock were issued upon the vesting of restricted and performance stock.

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, $1.4 million and $5.4 million, respectively, was included in selling, general and administrative expenses related to share-based payments, and a net of 430 and 424,704 shares, respectively, of common stock were issued upon the vesting of restricted and performance stock.

13.    CONTINGENCIES

Legal Proceedings

From time to time, the Company is involved in various litigation, claims, investigations, and other proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of its business. These proceedings primarily relate to employee-related matters that include individual and collective claims, professional liability, tax, and payroll practices. The Company establishes reserves when available information indicates that a loss is probable and an amount or range of loss can be reasonably estimated. These assessments are performed at least quarterly and are based on the information available to management at the time and involve significant management judgment to determine the probability and estimated amount of potential losses, if any. Based on the available information considered in its reviews, the Company adjusts its loss contingency accruals and its disclosures as may be required. Actual outcomes or losses may differ materially from those estimated by the Company's current assessments, including available insurance recoveries, which would impact the Company's profitability. Adverse developments in existing litigation claims or legal proceedings involving the Company or new claims could require management to establish or increase litigation reserves or enter into unfavorable settlements or satisfy judgments for monetary damages for amounts in excess of current reserves, which could adversely affect the Company's financial results. The Company believes that the outcome of any
20

outstanding loss contingencies as of September 30, 2024 will not have a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows.

Sales and Other State Non-Income Tax Liabilities

The Company's sales and other state non-income tax filings are subject to routine audits by authorities in the jurisdictions where it conducts business in the United States which may result in assessments of additional taxes. The Company accrues sales and other non-income tax liabilities based on the Company's best estimate of its probable liability utilizing currently available information and interpretation of relevant tax regulations. Given the nature of the Company's business, significant subjectivity exists as to both whether sales and other state non-income taxes can be assessed on its activity and how the sales tax will ultimately be measured by the relevant jurisdictions. The Company makes a determination for each reporting period whether the estimates for sales and other non-income taxes in certain states should be revised. The expense is included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the Company's condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss) and the liability is reflected in sales tax payable within other current liabilities in its condensed consolidated balance sheets.

14.    INCOME TAXES

The Company has historically calculated the provision for income taxes during interim reporting periods by applying an estimate of the Annual Effective Tax Rate (AETR) for the full fiscal year to ordinary income for the reporting period. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company used actual results to calculate the provision for income taxes. It determined that since small changes in estimated ordinary income would result in significant changes in the estimated AETR, the historical method would not provide a reliable estimate for the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2024.

The Company’s effective tax rate was 24.6% and 13.5% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, respectively, and 34.3% and 29.3% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, respectively. In addition to using actual results, a book loss primarily driven by credit loss expense as discussed in Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, relative to nondeductible items, caused the year-to-date effective tax rates to be significantly different from the historical annual effective tax rate.

As of September 30, 2024, the Company had approximately $11.2 million of unrecognized tax benefits included in other non-current liabilities, $10.5 million, net of deferred taxes, which would impact the effective tax rate if recognized. During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company had net increases of $0.5 million to its current year unrecognized tax benefits related to federal and state tax provisions.

Effective January 1, 2024, many jurisdictions implemented the Pillar Two rules issued by the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development. In general, large multinational entity groups with consolidated revenue in excess of 750 million Euros in at least two of the preceding four years could be subject to the new rules in jurisdictions with an effective tax rate below fifteen percent. The Company currently does not operate in any jurisdictions that have implemented the Pillar Two rules, but jurisdictions may adopt retroactively to January 1, 2024. The Company does not expect the adoption of the Pillar Two rules by any jurisdiction in which it currently operates to have a material impact on its financial statements.

The tax years 2012 through 2023 remain open to examination by certain taxing jurisdictions to which the Company is subject to tax.

15.    RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

The Company has entered into an arrangement for digital marketing services provided by a firm that is related to a certain member of the Company's Board of Directors, who is a minority shareholder in the firm's parent company and is a member of the parent company's Board of Directors. Management believes that the terms of the arrangement are equivalent to those prevailing in an arm's-length transaction and have been approved by the Audit Committee of the Company's Board of Directors through the Company's related party transaction approval process. The digital marketing firm manages a limited number of digital publishers covering various Company brands for a monthly management fee. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, the Company incurred an immaterial amount in expenses and had an immaterial payable balance at September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023.
21

The Company provides services to entities that are affiliated with certain members of the Company’s Board of Directors. Management believes that the services were conducted on terms equivalent to those prevailing in an arm's-length transaction. Revenue related to these transactions was $2.7 million and $3.0 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, respectively, and an immaterial amount for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023. Accounts receivable due from these entities was $0.7 million at September 30, 2024 and an immaterial amount at December 31, 2023.

16.    IMMATERIAL FINANCIAL RESTATEMENT TO PRIOR PERIOD FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

As discussed in Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, the Company identified an error in the consolidated financial statements of prior periods that it concluded was not material to the previously-issued financial statements.

ITEM 2.    MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
 
The purpose of the following Management’s Discussion and Analysis (MD&A) is to help facilitate the understanding of significant factors influencing the quarterly operating results, financial condition, and cash flows of the Company. Additionally, MD&A also conveys our current expectations of the potential impact of known trends, events, or uncertainties that may impact future results. MD&A is provided as a supplement to, and should be read in conjunction with, our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 (2023 Form 10-K) (including Part I, Item 1A. “Risk Factors”), our financial statements and the accompanying notes to our financial statements.
 
Business Overview

We provide total talent management services, including strategic workforce solutions, contingent staffing, permanent placement, and consultative services for healthcare customers across the continuum of care, by recruiting and placing highly qualified healthcare professionals in virtually every specialty and area of expertise. In addition to clinical roles such as school nurses, speech language, and behavioral therapists, we place non-clinical professionals such as teachers, substitute teachers, and other education specialties at educational facilities across the nation. Our diverse customer base includes both public and private acute care and non-acute care hospitals, outpatient clinics, ambulatory care facilities, single- and multi-specialty physician practices, rehabilitation facilities, Program of All-Inclusive Care for the Elderly (PACE) programs, urgent care centers, local and national healthcare systems, managed care providers, public and charter schools, correctional facilities, government facilities, pharmacies, and many other healthcare providers. Through our national staffing teams, we offer our workforce solutions and place clinicians on travel and per diem assignments, local short-term contracts, and permanent positions. In addition, we continually evaluate opportunities to acquire companies that would complement or enhance our business, like WSG and Mint.

Our workforce solutions include managed service programs (MSPs), vendor management systems (VMS), in-home care services, education health services, recruitment process outsourcing (RPO), project management, and other outsourcing and consultative services as described in Item 1. “Business” in our 2023 Form 10-K. By utilizing the solutions that we offer, customers are able to better plan their personnel needs, optimize their talent acquisition and management processes, strategically flex and balance their workforce, have access to quality healthcare personnel, and provide continuity of care for improved patient outcomes. We have a history of investing in diversity, equality, and inclusion as a key component of the organization’s overall corporate social responsibility program, which we believe is closely aligned with our core values to create a better future for our people, communities, and our stockholders.

The Company’s two reportable segments offer services to its customers as described below:

●    Nurse and Allied Staffing – Nurse and Allied Staffing represented approximately 84% of total revenue in the third quarter of 2024. The Nurse and Allied Staffing segment provides workforce solutions and traditional staffing, including temporary and permanent placement of travel nurses and allied professionals, as well as per diem and contract nurses and allied personnel. We also provide clinical and non-clinical professionals on short-term and long-term assignments to customers such as local and national healthcare plans, managed care providers, public and charter schools, correctional facilities, skilled nursing facilities, and other non-acute settings. In addition, Nurse and Allied Staffing provides executive search services for healthcare professionals, as well as contingent search. We provide flexible workforce solutions to our healthcare customers through diversified offerings designed to meet their unique needs, including MSP, RPO, and consulting services. We also offer our SaaS-based, proprietary, vendor management technology, Intellify® to facilities to manage all or a portion of their agency services.

●    Physician Staffing – Physician Staffing represented approximately 16% of total revenue in the third quarter of 2024. Physician Staffing provides physicians in many specialties, as well as certified registered nurse anesthetists, nurse practitioners, and physician assistants as independent contractors on temporary assignments throughout the United States.

Summary of Operations

For the quarter ended September 30, 2024, consolidated revenue declined 28.8% year-over-year to $315.1 million, as travel nurse and allied has seen a decline in both billable days and average bill rates. The declines in travel staffing were partly offset by continued growth in several other lines of business, including Homecare Staffing which was up 13.1% over the prior year, as well as growth in our Physician Staffing segment which was up 10.0% over the prior year. Net income attributable to common stockholders in the current quarter was $2.6 million, as compared to $12.8 million for the same period in the prior year.
29


For the three months ended September 30, 2024, cash and cash equivalents totaled $64.0 million, down slightly from the prior quarter, as we continued to repurchase shares under our authorized repurchase plan throughout the quarter. Cash flow provided by operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 was $95.9 million, driven primarily by collections from clients driving down working capital. As of September 30, 2024, there were no borrowings drawn under the revolving senior-secured asset-based credit facility (ABL), and borrowing base availability was $150.2 million, with $135.2 million of availability net of $15.0 million of letters of credit.

See Results of Operations, Segment Results, and Liquidity and Capital Resources sections that follow for further information.

Operating Metrics

We evaluate our financial condition by tracking operating metrics and financial results specific to each of our segments. Key operating metrics include hours worked, days filled, number of contract personnel on a full-time equivalent (FTE) basis, revenue per FTE, and revenue per day filled. Other operating metrics include number of open orders, candidate applications, contract bookings, length of assignment, bill and pay rates, renewal and fill rates, number of active searches, and number of placements. These operating metrics are representative of trends that assist management in evaluating business performance. Due to the timing of our business process and other factors, certain of these operating metrics may not necessarily correlate to the reported U.S. GAAP results for the periods presented. Some of the segment financial results analyzed include revenue, operating expenses, and contribution income. In addition, we monitor cash flow, as well as operating and leverage ratios, to help us assess our liquidity needs.

Business SegmentBusiness Measurement
Nurse and Allied Staffing FTEs represent the average number of Nurse and Allied Staffing contract personnel on a full-time equivalent basis.
Average revenue per FTE per day is calculated by dividing the Nurse and Allied Staffing revenue, excluding permanent placement, per FTE by the number of days worked in the respective periods.
Physician StaffingDays filled is calculated by dividing the total hours invoiced during the period, including an estimate for the impact of accrued revenue, by eight hours.
Revenue per day filled is calculated by dividing revenue as reported by days filled for the period presented.

Segment Comparison - Three Months Ended September 30, 2024 and Three Months Ended September 30, 2023

Nurse and Allied Staffing

Revenue decreased $131.7 million, or 33.2%, to $264.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024, as compared to $396.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023, driven primarily by a 22.2% decline in professionals on assignment and, to a lesser extent, a 14.6% decline in average bill rates. The decline in professionals on assignment is largely the result of lower demand, as many clients in the large acute-care space seek to reduce their spend on contingent labor following the pandemic. Also within the segment, Homecare Staffing experienced year-over-year revenue growth of 13.1% and sequential revenue growth of 4.0% in the third quarter of 2024, as that business continues to ramp new clients.
 
Contribution income decreased $19.9 million, or 50.9%, to $19.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024, as compared to $39.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023. As a percentage of segment revenue, contribution income margin was 7.3% for the three months ended September 30, 2024, as compared to 9.9% for the three months ended September 30, 2023.

The average number of FTEs on contract during the three months ended September 30, 2024 decreased 22.2% from the three months ended September 30, 2023, primarily due to headcount decline in travel nurse and allied, per diem, and education. The average revenue per FTE per day decreased 14.1%.

Physician Staffing
 
Revenue increased $4.6 million, or 10.0%, to $50.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024, as compared to $45.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023, primarily due to a 6.2% increase in billable days, as well as the impact from higher rates and favorable specialty mix.
 
Contribution income was $4.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024, as compared to $2.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023. As a percentage of segment revenue, contribution income was 9.2% for the three months ended September 30, 2024, as compared to 5.6% for the three months ended September 30, 2023.

37

Total days filled for the three months ended September 30, 2024 was 24,424, as compared with 23,004 in the prior year. Revenue per day filled was $2,058, as compared with $1,986 in the prior year, due to price increases.


Corporate Overhead

Corporate overhead includes unallocated executive leadership and other centralized corporate functional support costs, such as finance, IT, legal, human resources, and marketing, as well as public company expenses and corporate-wide projects. Corporate overhead decreased to $15.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024, from $16.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023, primarily due to decreases in compensation and benefit expense, and software and hardware expense. As a percentage of consolidated revenue, corporate overhead was 4.9% for the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 3.7% for the three months ended September 30, 2023.

Segment Comparison - Nine Months Ended September 30, 2024 and Nine Months Ended September 30, 2023

Nurse and Allied Staffing

Revenue decreased $585.8 million, or 39.7%, to $888.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, as compared to $1.5 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, driven primarily by a 25.3% decline in professionals on assignment and, to a lesser extent, a 19.9% normalization in bill rates.
 
Contribution income decreased $110.6 million, or 67.9%, to $52.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, as compared to $162.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023. Contribution income for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 included $19.4 million of credit loss expense driven by a bankruptcy filing by a single large customer recognized during the second quarter of 2024. As a percentage of segment revenue, contribution income margin was 5.9% for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, as compared to 11.0% for the nine months ended September 30, 2023.

The average revenue per FTE per day decreased 19.5%, driven by both a decline in average bill rates, especially for travel assignments, as well as the impact from mix.

Physician Staffing
 
Revenue increased $14.2 million, or 10.8%, to $145.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, as compared to $131.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, primarily due to a 5.1% increase in billable days, as well as an increase in average rates, due to higher rates in certain specialties, as well as an improved mix of higher bill rate specialties.
 
Contribution income was $11.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, as compared to $7.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023.

Total days filled for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 was 72,461, as compared with 68,927 in the prior year. Revenue per day filled was $2,009 as compared with $1,907 in the prior year, due to price increases.

Corporate Overhead

Corporate overhead decreased to $51.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, from $54.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, primarily due to decreases in compensation and benefit expense, and professional fees, partially offset by increases in insurance and workers’ compensation. As a percentage of consolidated revenue, corporate overhead was 5.0% for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 3.4% for the nine months ended September 30, 2023.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
As of September 30, 2024, we reported $64.0 million in cash and cash equivalents, with no borrowings drawn under the ABL, and no off-balance sheet arrangements. Working capital decreased by $44.9 million to $215.9 million as of September 30, 2024, as compared to $260.8 million as of December 31, 2023, primarily due to a decrease in net receivables, partially offset by the timing of disbursements. As of September 30, 2024, our days’ sales outstanding, net of amounts owed to subcontractors, was 63 days, down 4 days year-over-year and up 7 days sequentially.

Operating cash flow constitutes our primary source of liquidity and, historically, has been sufficient to fund working capital, capital expenditures, internal business expansion, and debt service. This includes commitments, both short-term and long-term, of interest expense on our debt and operating lease commitments, and future principal payments on the ABL. We expect to meet our future cash needs from a combination of cash on hand, operating cash flows, and funds available through the ABL. See the debt discussion which follows.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company repurchased a total of 2,107,035 shares of common stock for $33.2 million, at an average price of $15.75 per share, under its $100.0 million Board-authorized stock repurchase program (Repurchase Program). As of September 30, 2024, there was $44.1 million remaining for share repurchase under the Repurchase Program, subject to certain conditions in the Loan Agreement (as defined below).

Net cash provided by operating activities decreased $140.5 million to $95.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, as compared to $236.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023.

Net cash used in investing activities was $6.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, as compared to $10.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, primarily for capital expenditures in both years, and a small acquisition in the prior year.
Net cash used in financing activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2024 was $42.8 million, as compared to $214.8 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2023. During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, we used cash to pay $3.0 million for income taxes on share-based compensation, $33.2 million for share repurchases, and $6.6 million for contingent consideration. During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, we reported net repayments of $150.7 million on debt, and used cash to pay $4.9 million for income taxes on share-based compensation, $51.2 million for share repurchases, $7.5 million for contingent consideration, and an immaterial amount for other financing activities.
 
Debt

2021 Term Loan Credit Agreement

On June 8, 2021, we entered into the Term Loan Credit Agreement (Term Loan Agreement), which provided for a six-year second lien subordinated term loan in the amount of $100.0 million (term loan). On November 18, 2021, we amended the Term Loan Agreement (Term Loan First Amendment), which provided the Company an incremental term loan in an aggregate amount equal to $75.0 million. On April 14, 2023, we amended the Term Loan Agreement (Term Loan Second Amendment), which provided the option for all or a portion of the borrowings to bear interest at a rate based on the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR) or the Base Rate (as defined in the Term Loan Agreement), at the election of the borrowers, plus an applicable margin. With respect to any SOFR loan, the rate per annum was equal to the Term SOFR (as defined in the Term Loan Second Amendment) for the interest period plus an adjustment of 10 basis points due to the credit spread associated with the transition to SOFR.

As more fully described in Note 8 - Debt to our condensed consolidated financial statements, on June 30, 2023, we repaid all outstanding obligations under the term loan, and terminated the Term Loan Agreement. As a result, debt issuance costs of $1.7 million were written off in the second quarter of 2023 and are included as loss on early extinguishment of debt in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss). All subsidiary guarantees of the term loan were automatically released upon the termination of the Term Loan Agreement.

2019 Asset-Based Loan Agreement

Effective October 25, 2019, the prior senior credit facility entered into in August 2017 was replaced by a $120.0 million asset-based loan agreement (Loan Agreement), which provided for a five-year senior secured revolving credit facility. On June 30, 2020, we amended the Loan Agreement (First Amendment), which increased the current aggregate committed size of the ABL
39

from $120.0 million to $130.0 million. All other terms, conditions, covenants, and pricing of the Loan Agreement remained the same. On March 8, 2021, we amended the Loan Agreement (Second Amendment), which increased the current aggregate committed size of the ABL from $130.0 million to $150.0 million, increased certain borrowing base sub-limits, and decreased both the cash dominion event and financial reporting triggers. On June 8, 2021, we amended the Loan Agreement (Third Amendment), which permitted the incurrence of indebtedness and grant of security as set forth in the Loan Agreement and in accordance with the Intercreditor Agreement, and provides mechanics relating to a transition away from LIBOR as a benchmark interest rate to a replacement alternative benchmark rate or mechanism for loans made in U.S. dollars. On November 18, 2021, we amended the Loan Agreement (Fourth Amendment), whereby the permitted indebtedness (as defined in the Loan Agreement) was increased to $175.0 million. On March 21, 2022, we amended the Loan Agreement (Fifth Amendment), which increased the current aggregate committed size of the ABL from $150.0 million to $300.0 million, extended the credit facility for an additional five years, increased certain borrowing base sub-limits, and provided the option for all or a portion of the borrowings to bear interest at a rate based on SOFR or Base Rate (as defined in the Loan Agreement), at the election of the borrowers, plus an applicable margin. On September 29, 2023, we amended the Loan Agreement (Sixth Amendment), which changed the minimum fixed charge coverage ratio from a maintenance covenant to a springing covenant based on excess availability. On July 29, 2024, we amended the Loan Agreement (Seventh Amendment), which allows for all share repurchases paid in cash prior to June 30, 2024 and thereafter to be excluded as restricted payments in the fixed charge coverage ratio calculation if there is no revolving ABL balance.
As of September 30, 2024, the interest rate spreads and fees under the ABL were based on SOFR plus 1.85% for the revolving portion of the borrowing base. The Base Rate margin would have been 0.75% for the revolving portion. The SOFR and Base Rate margins are subject to monthly adjustments, pursuant to a pricing matrix based on our excess availability under the revolving credit facility. In addition, the facility is subject to an unused line fee, letter of credit fees, and an administrative fee. Borrowing base availability under the ABL was $150.2 million as of September 30, 2024, with no borrowings drawn and $135.2 million of availability net of $15.0 million of letters of credit. For the three months ended September 30, 2024, the excess availability did not fall below the stated threshold and, as a result, there was no covenant compliance period.

ITEM 3.    QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Interest Rate Risk

We are exposed to variable interest rate risk associated with our Loan Agreement entered into on October 25, 2019. This agreement charges interest at a rate based on either SOFR or Base Rate (as defined in the Loan Agreement) plus an applicable margin. Our Term Loan Agreement, entered into on June 8, 2021, was repaid and terminated on June 30, 2023.

A 1.0% change in interest rates would have resulted in interest expense fluctuating an immaterial amount for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. See Note 8 - Debt to our condensed consolidated financial statements.

Other Risks

There have been no material changes to our other exposures as disclosed in our 2023 Form 10-K.

ITEM 4.    CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

We carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our “disclosure controls and procedures” (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act), as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based upon the evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report. Disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, communicated to management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. The disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports required under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, in order to allow timely decisions regarding any required disclosure.

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f) that occurred during our most recently completed fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
